Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a marketing skill usually talks to online services.

Pulls Ahrefs data through the official MCP server or API v3 and ships a competitor gap Kanban with scaffolded pages, a clean link-replication CSV, Reddit-mined page specs, and exact link-insertion target URLs. Use when the user asks for competitor research, content gaps, top pages, backlink audits, 'is this DR real', Reddit topic mining, or picking a page on a prospect site for a link insertion.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'ahrefs-research' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'ahrefs-research' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named ahrefs-research already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/Illyism/seo-skills' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '805c9c8261e60716e17efe6b834b0be7248d9ebb' -- 'seo/ahrefs-research' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'seo/ahrefs-research' ~/.agents/skills/'ahrefs-research' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'ahrefs-research' ~/.claude/skills/'ahrefs-research' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
