Find queries where two or more of a site's own pages compete against each other in search, splitting clicks and suppressing rankings. Use when someone asks about keyword cannibalization, overlapping or duplicate content, which of two similar pages to keep, or why similar pages both rank poorly. Requires the aeo-toolkit aeo-search MCP server.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Finding and resolving keyword cannibalization

Two pages ranking for one query is **not automatically a problem.** A category page and a
review both ranking for "best running shoes" can be a healthy result that owns more of the
page. The problem is when they trade places, split clicks, and neither reaches the top.

Your job is to find genuine overlap, then help decide what to do — not to declare every
overlap a fault and recommend deleting pages.

## Finding it

1. Call `list_gsc_sites` and confirm the property.
2. Call `gsc_cannibalization`. Start with the default 28 days and `minImpressions: 50`.

   Raise `minImpressions` on a large site until the list is reviewable. Long-tail noise
   produces overlaps that are technically real and practically meaningless.

3. Work down the returned groups. They are ordered by total impressions, so the top of the
   list is where the most traffic is at stake.

## Judging each group

For each group, look at the competing pages' positions and CTR together:

**Probably real cannibalization**
- Both pages sit in a similar position range (say 5-15) and neither breaks through

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add advance-labs/aeo-toolkit/seo-cannibalization@sha256:d4630babda44cfa8

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.d6e9f7d, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
