Replaces single-vendor (Ahrefs-only) tool defaults with a per-task backend menu across all 14 SEO skills. Each skill now lists every capable MCP in allowed-tools and documents how to pick between Semrush, Ahrefs, OurSEO Agent (CLI + MCP), DataForSEO, and GSC in its SKILL.md Data Source Selection section. Tool stubs (~40 new files) populated per skill with capability deltas, call patterns, and explicit "not for this skill when" callouts so the menu is self-correcting. Skills affected: 19-keyword-strategy, 20-serp-analysis, 21-position-tracking, 22-link-building, 23-content-strategy, 24-ecommerce, 25-kpi-framework, 26-international, 27-ai-visibility, 28-knowledge-graph, 31-competitor-intel, 32-crawl-budget, 33-migration-planner, 34-reporting-dashboard.

# Semrush MCP
|
|
|
|
**Default** for competitor organic profile, keyword overlap, traffic trends, and competitor auto-discovery.
|
|
|
|
Call pattern: discovery → `get_report_schema` → `execute_report`.
|
|
|
|
## Key reports
|
|
|
|
- `organic_research` — organic keywords + competitor pulls for any domain
|
|
- `trends_research` — period-over-period traffic deltas
|
|
- `overview_research` — domain-level traffic/visibility for the comparison matrix
|
|
- `backlink_research` — Authority Score and referring-domain counts (paired with Ahrefs for cross-check)
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
mcp__semrush__organic_research(query="<target>", database="us")
|
|
mcp__semrush__organic_research(query="<competitor>", database="us")
|
|
mcp__semrush__trends_research(query="<target>", database="us")
|
|
mcp__semrush__overview_research(query="<competitor>", database="us")
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Korean market: `database="kr"`.
|
|
|
|
## Strengths for this skill
|
|
|
|
- **Auto-discovery** of organic competitors via `organic_research`.
|
|
- Cleanest **keyword overlap** computation across target + competitors.
|
|
- `trends_research` directly exposes period-over-period — required for threat scoring.
|
|
|
|
## Not for this skill when
|
|
|
|
- **Backlink-focused competitor comparison** — Ahrefs `site-explorer-organic-competitors` + `-backlinks-stats` is stronger.
|
|
- **Korean Naver competitor presence** — Semrush is Google-only. Use `our research naver *` + WebSearch.
|
|
- **SERP overlap spot-check** — `mcp__ourseo__check_serp` is cheaper.
