"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/claude-seo" run google_report.py --type full --data {domain}-audit/audit-data.json --domain <domain> --output-dir {domain}-audit/. This produces a white-cover enterprise report with TOC, executive summary, charts (Lighthouse gauges, query bars, index donut), metric cards, threshold tables, prioritized recommendations with effort estimates, and implementation roadmap. Always offer PDF generation after completing an audit.

DataForSEO Integration (Optional)
If DataForSEO MCP tools are available, spawn the seo-dataforseo agent alongside existing subagents to enrich the audit with live data: real SERP positions, backlink profiles with spam scores, on-page analysis (Lighthouse), business listings, and AI visibility checks (ChatGPT scraper, LLM mentions).
Google API Integration (Optional)
If Google API credentials are configured ("${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/claude-seo" run google_auth.py --check), spawn the seo-google agent to enrich the audit with real Google field data: CrUX Core Web Vitals (replaces lab-only estimates), GSC URL indexation status, search performance (clicks, impressions, CTR), and GA4 organic traffic trends. The Performance (CWV) category score benefits most from field data.
Matomo Integration (Optional)
If Matomo credentials are configured ("${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/claude-seo" run matomo_auth.py --check), spawn the seo-matomo agent to enrich the audit with self-hosted analytics: organic visits trend, top landing pages, device and country breakdowns, channel / search-engine split, and organic keywords. Works as a GA4 alternative (when only Matomo is configured) or as a complement (when both GA4 and Matomo are present). Matomo numbers will not match GA4 exactly because of segmentation differences (referrerType==search vs sessionDefaultChannelGroup == "Organic Search") and attribution-window rules.
Google Update Correlation
Before attributing a traffic or ranking change to anything, list the confirmed Google updates in that window from the primary-source ledger:
"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/claude-seo" run seo_updates.py --since <yyyy-mm> --json
Every entry cites a Google-owned URL. If freshness.stale is true, say the
ledger may miss recent updates and check status.search.google.com before
drawing conclusions. A date overlap is a hypothesis, never proof of cause.
Error Handling
| Scenario | Action |
|----------|--------|
| URL unreachable (DNS failure, connection refused) | Report the error clearly. Do not guess site content. Suggest the user verify the URL and try again. |
| robots.txt blocks crawling | Report which paths are blocked. Analyze only accessible pages and note the limitation in the report. |
| Rate limiting (429 responses) | Back off and reduce concurrent requests. Report partial results with a note on which sections could not be completed. |
| Timeout on large sites (500+ pages) | Cap the crawl at the timeout limit. Report findings for pages crawled and estimate total site scope. |
| Subagent hits its maxTurns budget on a large site | Findings are not lost: every audit subagent writes a partial output_dir/findings/*.md after its first analysis pass and overwrites it with the complete findings before finishing. Read whatever findings file exists and merge it into the report, noting it may be partial. |
