browse-seo: SEO Audit for AI Agents

Goal

Run a complete on-page SEO audit for a target URL using the browse CLI. Extract technical SEO signals, analyze them, and produce a report with findings and recommendations.

Step 0: Consider stealth setup (optional)

If the audit target is behind bot detection (Cloudflare, competitor sites), use camoufox:

browse --runtime camoufox --headed goto <url>

For most public pages, the default Chromium runtime is sufficient. Skip unless you hit blocks.

Step 1: Navigate to the target URL

browse goto <url>
browse wait --network-idle

Verify the page loaded. Note any redirects -- redirect chains matter for SEO. If the page returns 403 or a challenge, switch to camoufox (Step 0).

Step 2: Extract meta tags

browse meta

Returns title, description, canonical, OG tags, Twitter Card, robots, and viewport. Check:

• Title: present, under 60 chars, contains target keywords
• Description: present, 120-160 chars, compelling and unique
• Canonical: present, correct URL (trailing slashes, www vs non-www)
• Robots: no accidental noindex or nofollow
• Viewport: width=device-width, initial-scale=1 for mobile
• OG tags: og:title, og:description, og:image, og:url all present
• Twitter Card: twitter:card, twitter:title, twitter:description present

Step 3: Check heading structure

browse headings

Returns H1-H6 hierarchy with counts. Check:

• Exactly one H1: multiple H1s dilute the primary topic signal
• H1 matches topic: should contain the primary keyword
• Logical nesting: H2 under H1, H3 under H2 -- no skipped levels
• Keyword presence: target keywords in H1 and H2 tags

Step 4: Extract structured data

browse schema

Extracts JSON-LD, Microdata, and RDFa from the page. Check:

• Presence: at least one schema type (Article, Product, Organization, etc.)
• Required properties: each type needs required fields per Google's docs
• Valid JSON-LD: no syntax errors or malformed objects
• Correct @type: matches actual page content
• Missing opportunities: FAQ, HowTo, Breadcrumb, Review where content supports it

Step 5: Check performance

browse perf

Returns navigation timing (DNS, TTFB, DOM load, full load). Check:

• TTFB: under 200ms good, over 600ms problem
• DOM Content Loaded: under 1.5s acceptable
• Full load: under 3s for good UX
• DNS: near zero with proper prefetching

Use browse network to inspect render-blocking resources, large assets, and request counts.

Step 6: Analyze link structure

browse links

Returns all anchor elements with text and href. Check:

• Internal links: sufficient linking for crawlability
• Anchor text: descriptive, not "click here" or bare URLs
• External links: appropriate outbound links, nofollow where needed
• Broken links: anything pointing to 404 or error pages

Step 7: Check mobile rendering

browse responsive

Captures screenshots at mobile (375px), tablet (768px), and desktop (1440px). Review for:

• Mobile layout: no horizontal scrolling, readable without zooming
• Tap targets: 48px minimum for touch
• Content parity: mobile has same critical content as desktop
• Font size: 16px minimum base font

Use browse screenshot for a single full-page capture if needed.

Step 8: Custom checks via JavaScript

Run targeted checks the built-in commands do not cover:

# Image alt tags
browse js "const imgs=[...document.querySelectorAll('img')]; const missing=imgs.filter(i=>!i.alt&&!i.getAttribute('role')); JSON.stringify({total:imgs.length,missingAlt:missing.length,examples:missing.slice(0,5).map(i=>i.src.slice(-60))})"

# Duplicate meta tags
browse js "JSON.stringify({titles:document.querySelectorAll('title').length,descriptions:document.querySelectorAll('meta[name=description]').length,canonicals:document.querySelectorAll('link[rel=canonical]').length})"

# Hreflang tags
browse js "JSON.stringify([...document.querySelectorAll('link[rel=alternate][hreflang]')].map(t=>({lang:t.hreflang,href:t.href})))"

# Lazy images without dimensions
browse js "const lazy=[...document.querySelectorAll('img[loading=lazy]')]; const noDims=lazy.filter(i=>!i.width&&!i.height&&!i.getAttribute('width')); JSON.stringify({lazyImages:lazy.length,missingDimensions:noDims.length})"

Check robots.txt and sitemap:

browse goto <origin>/robots.txt
browse text
browse goto <origin>/sitemap.xml
browse text

Step 9: Generate the audit report

After collecting data from Steps 2-8, produce a structured report:

1. Summary: one-paragraph overview with pass/fail/warning counts
2. Meta Tags: title, description, canonical, robots, OG, Twitter -- each rated
3. Heading Structure: H1 count, nesting issues, keyword presence
4. Structured Data: schema types found, missing opportunities, validation issues
5. Performance: TTFB, load times, blocking resources
6. Link Analysis: internal/external ratio, broken links, anchor text quality
7. Mobile Friendliness: viewport tag, responsive screenshots, tap target issues
8. Images: alt tag coverage, lazy loading, dimension attributes
9. Recommendations: prioritized fixes (critical, important, nice-to-have)

Rate each section as PASS, WARNING, or FAIL. Prioritize recommendations by impact.

Important Rules

• The browser persists between commands. Cookies, tabs, and session state carry over.
• After goto, always wait --network-idle before extracting data.
• The agent interprets all results. Browse extracts raw data; analysis is your job.
• Do not install anything automatically.
• Save screenshots under .browse/ directories.
• For sites that block bots, use --runtime camoufox --headed.
