Set up Doverity Agent Skills
Add Doverity skill files to your AI agent after connecting Doverity MCP.
Doverity Agent Skills are separate files from Doverity MCP.
On Claude Code, the Doverity plugin wires up MCP plus all nine skills in one step (not publicly installable yet — see the note there); for a setup that works today, use the steps below. On Codex CLI, the Doverity plugin does the same.
First, set up Doverity MCP. MCP gives your agent access to Doverity data.
Then add the Doverity SKILL.md files you want your agent to use. Each skill gives your agent one SEO workflow.
Choose an installation option
Pick the option that matches how you want to install the files.
One thing to know first: the open-seo core repo holds two kinds of skills — the nine SEO skills documented here, and eleven engineering skills the Doverity team uses to build the repo (code review, release notes, repo hygiene). Options 2 through 5 install both kinds. If you only want the SEO skills, use Option 1 and pick them from the list.
Option 1: Install and choose interactively
Use this if you want the installer to show the available skills and agents.
npx skills add every-app/open-seoOption 2: Install every skill in the repo
Use this if you want every skill the core repo carries, including the engineering skills.
npx skills add every-app/open-seo --skill '*'Option 3: Install all skills for Claude Code only
Use this if the skills should be available in Claude Code only.
npx skills add every-app/open-seo --skill '*' --agent claude-codeOption 4: Install all skills for OpenAI Codex only
Use this if the skills should be available in Codex only.
npx skills add every-app/open-seo --skill '*' --agent codexOption 5: Copy the skill files manually
Use this if you prefer to copy files into your agent's skills folder.
git clone https://github.com/every-app/open-seo.git
# Codex
mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills
cp -R open-seo/.agents/skills/* ~/.codex/skills/
# Claude Code
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R open-seo/.agents/skills/* ~/.claude/skills/You can also review the source skills on GitHub:
Each skill page also links to its source SKILL.md.
Run a skill
The nine SEO skills are the ones documented on this site. After the skill files are available to your agent, run the matching slash command:
/seo-project-setup/seo-coach/keyword-research/keyword-clustering/competitive-landscape/competitor-analysis/link-prospecting/local-seo/seo-audit
Next step
Start with SEO Project Setup if this is a new SEO project, or SEO Coach if you are not sure which workflow to run first.
