SEO (addyosmani) vs SEO (agricidaniel)
Two different Claude skills are both called SEO. SEO (addyosmani) and SEO (agricidaniel) install under the same name and do different jobs, which is exactly how the wrong one ends up running.
SEO
addyosmani/web-quality-skills
Improves a site's chances of ranking in regular search results by correcting meta tags, adding/schema markup, and tidying sitemaps and other indexability signals. It focuses on classic search-engine signals and on-page/indexing fixes — it does not aim to make content show up in AI assistants' answers or replace a full technical Core Web Vitals audit.

SEO
agricidaniel/claude-seo
Runs site-wide technical and content audits — crawlability, indexability, Core Web Vitals, structured data, sitemaps, images and content trust signals — and also detects industry and geographic intent to shape recommendations. Unlike tools that exist to craft content for LLM citations, this one measures whether the site’s structure and credibility are sound (technical, schema and E‑E‑A‑T) so you can fix underlying issues before chasing AI citation tactics.

Should I use SEO (addyosmani) or SEO (agricidaniel)?
The clearest answer is a situation each one is unambiguously right for. Both of these are drawn from the game's question bank.
Reach for SEO (addyosmani) when
You just want the classic on-page hygiene handled — correct meta tags, schema markup, and a tidy sitemap so pages get indexed properly. You are explicitly not after a loading-speed overhaul, a keyword strategy, or a trust-and-authority review.
seo-addyosmani focuses on classic on-page indexability signals — meta, schema, sitemaps — and stops short of a full page-experience audit. seo-affaan-m goes further into page-experience metrics and keyword mapping; seo-agricidaniel audits structure and trust/authority; ai-seo-coreyhaines31 targets AI citation. The tell is on-page indexing hygiene only, explicitly excluding speed, keywords and trust.
Reach for SEO (agricidaniel) when
Before you spend on tactics, you want to know whether the site's foundations are sound — is it crawlable, is its structured data right, does it read as trustworthy and authoritative for your particular industry and region?
seo-agricidaniel audits the site's technical structure and credibility and reads industry and geographic intent to shape advice. ai-seo-coreyhaines31 targets AI citation; seo-addyosmani makes narrow on-page fixes; seo-affaan-m does practical remediation including page-experience and keyword work. The tell is auditing trust, authority and regional intent.
What they have in common
Both are filed under SEO, the axis along which they collide. That shared ground is what makes an agent pick between them on description alone — and what makes it pick wrong.

Reading the difference is not the same as spotting it at speed. That is the game.
