# Ahrefs

Tools used for pulling fresh SEO data into the reporting dashboard.

## Tools Used

| Tool | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `mcp__ahrefs__site-explorer-metrics` | Current organic metrics snapshot (traffic, keywords, DR) |
| `mcp__ahrefs__site-explorer-metrics-history` | Historical metrics for trend charts and period comparison |

## Usage

These tools are called when the dashboard needs fresh data beyond what is available from cached skill outputs. The aggregator first checks local JSON files and Notion audit log entries, then optionally pulls current data from Ahrefs to supplement the report.

## Notes

- Ahrefs data has approximately 24-hour freshness lag
- Traffic value from Ahrefs is in cents; divide by 100 for USD
- Historical data availability depends on Ahrefs subscription tier
