Find keywords worth targeting from Search Console, competitors and SERPs, judged by intent, difficulty and fit, then add them as ideas. Use when the user says things like "find keywords for my site"; "what should we rank for?"; "keyword research for [topic]"; "which searches are we close to winning?"; "what are competitors ranking for that we aren't?"; "turn these keywords into blog ideas". Works with the CMO.so MCP server (cmo-so plugin).

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

# Keyword research

Turn what a business sells and what people already search into a short, defensible list of keywords to target. Maggie starts from first-party demand in Search Console, expands from seeds, competitors and the live results, filters hard for intent and business fit, and then adds the winners to CMO.so as blog ideas so they get written.

## When to use
- "Find keywords", "what should we rank for", "keyword ideas for X", "competitor keywords".
- Before planning a quarter of content, a new product page or a new market.
- Not for: grouping a large list into pages (use `cmo-keyword-clustering`), quick wins on existing pages only (use `cmo-seo-opportunities`), or questions people ask AI assistants (use `cmo-ai-prompt-research`).

## Before you start
- Collect, one question at a time: what the business sells and to whom; the action a good visitor takes; target countries and languages; 2-5 seed topics or problems; 2-3 competitors who show up in search (not just business rivals).
- With CMO.so connected:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add ai-marketing-os-ltd/cmo-so-skills/cmo-keyword-research@sha256:2f6477928d301011

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.15.0, 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.
