Version gate — read before invoking anything below
Every tool name in this skill is a DataForSEO MCP v2 name, and there are 84 of them. v3.0.0 (2026-08-11) replaced roughly 79 per-endpoint tools with four generic ones —
api_requestplus three documentation tools — and marked v2 deprecated. On a v3 install every name here resolves to nothing, and this skill isuser_invocable: false, so the caller sees a sub-skill that silently found no tools rather than an error naming the cause.Before using this skill, do one of:
- Check what is actually loaded. If the tool list has
api_requestand notserp_organic_live_advanced, you are on v3 and the names below do not apply. Translate each toapi_requestwith its REST path.- Pin v2 —
dataforseo-mcp-server@2.9.13— accepting a deprecated server.And note what this skill is. DataForSEO is a paid API, billed per call. Under "paid APIs are opt-in, never a dependency", nothing may require it: the keyless path for the same questions is
/seoand/seo geo, which are written to produce a complete result with no account and no spend. Reach for this skill only when the user already pays for DataForSEO and wants the depth. Never as the reason a dimension goes unreported.
