SEO Flow

FLOW Framework: Find · Leverage · Optimize · Win

FLOW is an evidence-led SEO operating model built for the AI-search era. Claude SEO integrates the FLOW prompt library (41 prompts across 5 stages) so every analysis can be driven by structured, evidence-backed AI prompts rather than improvised queries.

Runtime context: Load references/flow-framework.md on every /seo flow activation. Load prompt files on demand, only for the stage the user requests.

Commands

Orchestration Logic

On /seo flow (no sub-command)

1. Read references/flow-framework.md
2. Show the FLOW stage overview with a one-line description of each stage
3. Ask: which stage matches the user's current situation?

On /seo flow find [url|topic]

1. Read all files in references/prompts/find/
2. Apply each prompt to the URL or topic
3. Cross-reference: "For deeper SERP clustering, see /seo cluster <seed-keyword>"

On /seo flow leverage [url]

1. Read the file in references/prompts/leverage/
2. Apply to the URL's current backlink context
3. Cross-reference: "For raw backlink data, see /seo backlinks <url>"

On /seo flow optimize [url]

1. Read all file names in references/prompts/optimize/
2. Read prior analysis context (URL, industry vertical, any prior skill output in conversation)
3. Select 2-3 most relevant prompts; load only those files
4. Apply selected prompts; note the others are accessible via /seo flow prompts
5. Cross-reference: "For full content quality analysis, see /seo content <url> and /seo geo <url>"

On /seo flow win [url]

1. Read all files in references/prompts/win/
2. Apply each prompt to the URL's conversion and BOFU context
3. Cross-reference: "For SXO persona scoring, see /seo sxo <url>"

On /seo flow local [url]

1. Read all files in references/prompts/local/
2. Apply to the URL's local SEO context
3. Cross-reference: "For full local SEO analysis, see /seo local <url> and /seo maps [command]"

On /seo flow prompts

1. Read references/prompts/README.md
2. Display the full index: all 41 prompts with stage, name, trigger conditions

On /seo flow sync

1. Run: "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/claude-seo" run sync_flow.py
2. Display the JSON summary (files added, updated, unchanged)
3. Show attribution notice after sync completes

Context Matching (Optimize stage)

The optimize stage has 21 prompts. Dumping all 21 is noise. Select by priority:

1. Industry vertical (SaaS → on-page + technical; local → citations + GBP; publisher → E-E-A-T + freshness)
2. Prior skill output (seo-technical flagged crawl issues → technical optimize prompts; seo-content flagged E-E-A-T gaps → content optimize prompts)
3. URL signals (product pages → conversion; blog → freshness + authority)

Always surface exactly 2-3 prompts. State which prompts you chose and why.
