When the team needs the complete SEO picture, run six sub-audits in order and deliver one prioritized rollup with a 90-day roadmap. — Claude Skill
Sequence a full SEO audit suite into one rollup report.
- 1-page audit charter that locks scope, goal, stakeholders, and reporting format before any data pulls
- Coordinated data gather across Ahrefs, Search Console, analytics, and server logs with freshness noted per source
- Six sub-audits sequenced: site health, backlinks, keywords, content, on-page, AI-search readiness
- Synthesis into 5 to 7 themes (not 200 issues) tied to size of prize and a concrete fix
- Impact-versus-effort prioritization plus a 90-day roadmap with owners and targets stakeholders commit to

Orchestrator sequences six sub-audits over two weeks; surfaces 5 themes and 12 quick wins worth an estimated 38,000 extra organic clicks per month.
Two-week audit produces a rollup report flagging 3 concentration risks in backlinks and 14 thin-content clusters; informs valuation and post-close roadmap.
Audit suite run 30 days post-launch catches 9 broken canonical issues, 22 redirect chains, and a 14% organic dip traced to crawl-budget waste.
Charter, gather, sub-audits, synthesis, and 90-day roadmap delivered to leadership in one bound report; budget approved off the prioritized backlog.
So funktioniert's
Charter the audit: 1-page scope, goal, stakeholders, reporting format; confirm Ahrefs MCP access and target property
Pull raw data from Ahrefs Site Explorer, Site Audit, Keywords Explorer, Content Explorer plus Search Console, analytics, and server logs; note freshness per source
Run each of the six sub-audits (site health, backlinks, keywords, content, on-page, AI search) and collect their findings docs
Synthesize findings into 5 to 7 themes; each theme answers what is happening, why it matters, size of prize, and the fix
Prioritize themes on an impact-versus-effort matrix, draft the rollup report, walk stakeholders through it, and lock the next 90-day roadmap
Beispiel
Property: rampstack.co (12,000 indexed URLs, 8 subfolders, English plus French). Goal: pre-Q1 baseline plus 90-day fix plan. Stakeholders: CMO plus head of content. Competitors: 5 named. Ahrefs MCP connected, Search Console plus GA4 available, server logs available.
Five themes surfaced. Two quick wins worth ~32,000 organic clicks per month. One strategic play in AI-search readiness. One concentration risk in the backlink profile.
Pillar has 11 articles versus competitor average of 28; 4 cornerstone pieces missing. Size of prize: 18,000 clicks per month. Fix: 12 net-new commissions in next 90 days.
37% of crawl spent on faceted-filter URLs that should not be indexed. Fix: robots rules plus canonical sweep in week 1.
9 Search Console queries ranking 11 to 20 with on-page fixes only; estimated 4,200 extra clicks per month. Owner: SEO lead. Target: shipped by week 3.
Weeks 1 to 2 quick wins. Weeks 3 to 6 content commissions begin. Weeks 7 to 9 AI-search readiness rollout. Week 10 progress checkpoint.

SEO Audit Orchestration
Run a complete SEO audit by sequencing the sibling audit skills in a defined order. Stack-agnostic. Assumes the Ahrefs MCP is connected. Produces a single rollup report that synthesizes findings across backlinks, keywords, content, traffic, technical health, and rankings.
When to use
- Running a full SEO audit (quarterly, biannual, annual)
- Pre-acquisition SEO due diligence
- Post-migration verification (after content move, replatform, or domain change)
- Onboarding a new client or new property
- Building a baseline before a major SEO investment
- Diagnosing chronic underperformance
When NOT to use
- Single-dimension audits (use the specific child skill:
seo-onpage,seo-backlink-audit, etc.) - Investigating a specific traffic drop (use
seo-traffic-diagnosis) - Tactical questions like "which keywords should we target" (use
seo-keyword-gap-audit) - Routine monitoring (use
seo-rank-tracking)
Required inputs
- The site or properties in scope
- Target market and primary languages
- Competitor set (3-5 properties)
- Goal of the audit (baseline, due diligence, fix plan, growth roadmap)
- Time and reporting constraints
- Confirmation that the Ahrefs MCP is connected and the workspace has access to the target property
The framework: 6 phases of an end-to-end audit
A complete audit moves through six phases in order. Skipping phases produces gaps. Reordering them produces rework.
Phase 1: Scope and baseline
Define the audit before running it.
- What is in scope (subdomains, paths, languages)
- What is out of scope
- Goal of the audit (baseline, fix plan, growth roadmap, due diligence)
- Stakeholders and their priorities
- Reporting format and length expectations
Output: a 1-page audit charter.
Phase 2: Data gather
Pull the raw data from Ahrefs and any companion sources.
Required pulls:
- Site Explorer: organic keywords, organic traffic, top pages, top countries, referring domains, backlinks, anchor text profile
- Site Audit: full crawl results
- Keywords Explorer: target keyword universe and competitor keyword overlap
- Content Explorer: top performing content in target topics
- Rank Tracker: current tracked positions if set up
Companion pulls (not Ahrefs-native):
- Search Console: query and page data, coverage issues
- Analytics: traffic, conversions, segment by source
- Server logs (if available): bot crawl behavior
Document data freshness for every pull. Stale data yields wrong conclusions.
Phase 3: Run the sub-audits
Run each child audit. Each produces its own findings doc.
| Sub-audit | Skill | What it produces |
|---|---|---|
| Site health | seo-site-health-audit | Prioritized technical fix backlog |
| Backlinks | seo-backlink-audit | Profile health, toxic list, reclamation list |
| Keywords | seo-keyword-gap-audit | Prioritized opportunity list |
| Content | seo-content-gap-audit | Create/update/merge roadmap |
| Page-level | seo-onpage | Per-page audit on top pages |
| AI search | seo-aeo-geo | AI search readiness gaps |
The child skills do the analysis. This skill sequences them and integrates the outputs.
Phase 4: Synthesize
Combine findings into themes. A list of 200 issues is not an audit. A list of 5-7 themes is.
Themes typically emerge in categories like:
- Technical foundation gaps that cap upside
- Content depth gaps in priority topics
- Backlink profile concentration risks
- Keyword opportunities the site is leaving on the table
- Cannibalization or thin coverage
- AI search readiness
Each theme should answer: what is happening, why it matters, what is the size of prize, what is the fix.
Phase 5: Prioritize
Rank the themes. Use a simple impact/effort matrix.
- Quick wins: high impact, low effort. Do now.
- Strategic plays: high impact, high effort. Plan and resource.
- Maintenance: low impact, low effort. Backlog.
- Avoid: low impact, high effort. Drop.
Tie each theme to a measurable target (organic clicks, ranked keywords in target band, conversions from organic).
Phase 6: Deliver
Produce the rollup report. See references/audit-rollup-template.md.
Structure:
- Executive summary (1 page)
- Themes and recommendations (5-7 themes, 1 page each)
- Sub-audit findings (linked or appended)
- Roadmap (next 90 days)
Walk stakeholders through it. Get commitment to the next 90 days of work.
Workflow
- Charter the audit. 1-page scope, goal, stakeholders, format.
- Confirm Ahrefs MCP access. Verify the workspace has the target property and recent data.
- Pull all data. Run the gather list in phase 2. Document freshness.
- Run each sub-audit. Use the child skills. Each produces its own findings doc.
- Synthesize themes. 5-7 themes max. Each ties to an impact and a fix.
- Prioritize. Impact/effort matrix. Quick wins surface to the top.
- Draft the rollup. Use the template. Executive summary first.
- Review with the team. Pressure-test conclusions before stakeholder readout.
- Deliver. Walk stakeholders through. Get commitment to next 90 days.
- Schedule the next one. Audits decay. Rerun on a cadence.
Failure patterns
- Audit without a goal. Produces a 60-page document nobody reads. Charter the audit first.
- All findings, no themes. A list of 200 issues is data, not an audit. Synthesize into themes.
- Skipping the sub-audits. Running one big audit instead of six focused ones produces shallow analysis everywhere.
- No prioritization. "Here are 47 things to fix" gets nothing fixed. Rank them.
- Stale data. Ahrefs index updates on a delay. Note freshness. Do not draw conclusions from week-old movement.
- Tool worship. Ahrefs is one source. Search Console, analytics, and logs add ground truth. Triangulate.
- Audit-to-audit drift. Running every audit differently makes trends impossible to spot. Standardize the structure.
- No 90-day roadmap. Without a plan after the audit, the audit is shelfware.
- Solo audit. Audits done alone miss context. Pull in the people who own the work.
