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.

Should I use SEO (addyosmani) or SEO Audit?
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 Audit when
Server logs show crawlers are blocked by configuration, many pages use the same title, and several external links return errors — the team wants a clear remediation plan to get search traffic back.
An SEO audit will identify crawl-blocking configuration, duplicate metadata, and broken links and then produce a prioritized remediation plan to recover search visibility. The other skills address accessibility, layout, or generating pages, which don’t directly fix crawl/index or metadata problems.
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.
