What This Skill Does

Connects to the Ahrefs API to retrieve SEO data including domain metrics, keyword research, backlink profiles, and SERP analysis. Supports batch processing of up to 100 targets per request. Rank Tracker and Site Audit features require pre-configured projects in the Ahrefs web interface.

Brings Ahrefs data directly into an agent workflow without switching to the web interface or exporting CSVs manually.

When to use it

  • Check domain rating and organic traffic for a competitor
  • Research search volume and difficulty for a keyword list
  • Audit backlink profile of a site before an acquisition
  • Find content gaps between two competing domains
  • Pull SERP top-10 results for a target keyword
