PROMPT LIBRARY & AUDITS

SEO + AI Visibility Audit Prompt Library (9 Master Prompts) ⚡

The complete operating system for auditing technical search health, internal links, content decay, backlinks, and AI search visibility with autonomous coding agents.

AEO SUMMARY The 9-Prompt Continuous Audit Engine

Traditional SEO audits are bulky PDF reports that sit unread. This prompt library turns any AI agent (Claude, Cursor, Antigravity, ChatGPT) into an autonomous, read-only search auditor that inspects actual live HTML, sitemaps, JSON-LD schemas, and AI crawler policies. With structured cadences (Weekly Pulse, 4-Week Specialist Rotation, and Pre/Post Publish Gates), founders and growth teams maintain top search rankings and AI citations with zero hallucinations.

GTM OPERATING CADENCE Somya's Execution Rule

Always enforce the Read-Only First Contract. Never let an AI agent directly rewrite canonicals, robots.txt, or redirect rules without producing an evidence table first. Protect pages that already perform, separate verified facts from inferred hypotheses, and validate changes immediately and at 7/28 days post-publish.

Prompt 1 — Baseline and Data-Access Audit

Cadence: Once before recurring audits; repeat after redesigns, migrations, domain changes, or major CMS restructuring.

PROMPT 1: BASELINE AUDIT
Act as a senior technical SEO and search-visibility auditor for this website. This is a READ-ONLY baseline. Do not change or publish anything. Work from the current repository/project and its configured live production deployment. Discover the production URL, site purpose, primary outcomes, audiences, topics, markets/languages, platform/CMS/hosting, available connected data, prior audit artifacts, and recent changes from the repository, configuration, documentation, CMS, deployment tooling, version history, and connected services. Do not ask the user to fill in a setup card or provide a URL. If multiple sites or production domains exist, resolve the active public target from canonical/deployment evidence and state the choice. If anything cannot be verified, label it 'Needs external data,' request the smallest useful export or access in the report, and continue with what can be verified.

EVIDENCE RULES:
- Inspect the live public site; do not treat a preview, successful build, configuration value, or tool score as proof of the live result.
- For every finding, give the exact URL/template/surface, observed evidence, source/tool, date, confidence, and validation method.
- Separate Verified, Inferred, Needs external data, and Not applicable. Never invent metrics, rankings, backlinks, citations, conversions, or competitor facts.
- Compare with the previous audit when supplied and separate new, fixed, persistent, and uncertain findings.

Build a reproducible baseline:
1) CURRENT INVENTORY: Enumerate all current static pages, CMS collections/templates/items, generated routes, localization variants, redirects, and any excluded/private/staging pages. Crawl sitemap and public site. Reconcile inventory vs sitemap vs crawlable URLs.
2) SEARCH FOUNDATION: Verify robots.txt, XML sitemap, HTTP/HTTPS and host normalization, response codes, redirect chains, self-referential canonicals, canonical consistency, indexability, and staging/project-domain exposure.
3) PERFORMANCE AND EXPERIENCE: Inspect field Core Web Vitals (LCP <= 2.5s, INP <= 200ms, CLS <= 0.1), semantic landmarks, keyboard access, form labels, and alt text.
4) PERFORMANCE BASELINE: Record Search Console queries/clicks, analytics organic landing sessions, Bing metrics, and referring domains.
5) CONTENT AND AUTHORITY BASELINE: Map important URLs to user intent, funnel role, topic family, and internal link graph.

OUTPUT: Return direct verdict, data coverage, top 5 actions, evidence table with ID/severity/URL/evidence/action, do-not-touch list, exact data requests, and next checkpoint.

Prompt 2 — Weekly SEO + AI Visibility Pulse

Cadence: Weekly while publishing or changing the site; otherwise monthly.

PROMPT 2: WEEKLY PULSE
Run a READ-ONLY weekly SEO and AI-visibility pulse for this website. Do not edit or publish anything. Compare with the last saved pulse and use complete data periods only. Work from the current repository/project and its configured live production deployment. Discover the production URL, site purpose, declared outcomes, priority audiences/topics/markets, connected search and analytics services, last saved pulse, recent publishes/changes, and stable AI-query panel. Do not ask the user for setup fields or a URL.

Check:
1) INCIDENTS AND REGRESSIONS: Search Console messages, manual actions, sudden indexing changes, sitemap failures, crawl anomalies, Core Web Vitals regressions, and newly published URLs.
2) SEARCH MOVEMENT: Compare last 7 complete days vs prior 7, plus 28-day rolling trend. Report clicks, impressions, CTR by query and landing page. Surface top 3 opportunities or decay signals.
3) AI DISCOVERY: Check Bing AI citations, referral traffic from ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, and test the stable AI query panel.
4) DECISION: If healthy, say 'No urgent SEO action this week'. If unhealthy, name the smallest diagnostic next step.

Return: One-paragraph verdict, data coverage, anomalies, top 3 actions max, exact evidence, and next checkpoint.

Prompt 3 — Monthly Technical, Indexing, and Performance Audit

Cadence: Month, Week 1; also after template, navigation, or CMS changes.

PROMPT 3: TECHNICAL AUDIT
Run a READ-ONLY monthly technical SEO audit of the website, its available CMS/source/configuration, and the live public deployment. Do not modify or publish anything. Work from the current repository/project and its configured live production deployment.

Audit and provide URL-level evidence for:
A. DISCOVERY AND INDEXING: robots.txt, XML sitemaps, canonical tags, HTTP status codes, redirect loops, orphan pages, crawl stats.
B. RENDERING AND DOM: Verify primary text and links are present in rendered HTML without requiring client-side JS hydration. Accessible button/link semantics.
C. METADATA AND SEARCH APPEARANCE: Unique titles and meta descriptions, logical heading hierarchy (single H1), Open Graph/Twitter tags, image alt text.
D. STRUCTURED DATA: Validate JSON-LD syntax and visible content fidelity (Organization, Person, Article, FAQPage, BreadcrumbList).
E. PERFORMANCE: Core Web Vitals targets (LCP <= 2.5s, INP <= 200ms, CLS <= 0.1).
F. LOCALIZATION: Hreflang tags, reciprocal links, and language-specific canonicals if applicable.

Return: Direct verdict, data coverage, top 5 actions, evidence table, do-not-touch list, and explicit regression tests.

Prompt 4 — Monthly Content, Queries, and Internal-Link Audit

Cadence: Month, Week 2; also after publishing a cluster of new articles.

PROMPT 4: CONTENT & LINKS
Run a READ-ONLY content-performance and internal-link audit for this website. Do not edit CMS items, source content, or the live site.

1) MAP DEMAND TO PAGES: Group Search Console queries by user intent and topic. Identify high-impression/low-CTR pages, striking-distance queries (positions 4-20), declining pages, and cannibalization.
2) CONTENT QUALITY: Check for firsthand experience, original research/data, screenshots, examples, author bylines, and transparent limitations. Flag thin, stale, or generic AI copy.
3) INTERNAL-LINK GRAPH: Build internal link graph from crawlable  tags. Find orphans, dead ends, and high-authority pages not linking to priority targets. Propose exact contextual link sentences with natural anchors.
4) TITLES & SNIPPETS: Review search appearance against user intent.

Return: Direct verdict, top 5 actions, evidence table, Protect/Improve/Consolidate queues, proposed internal-link changes, and next checkpoint.

Prompt 5 — Monthly Backlink and Authority Audit

Cadence: Month, Week 3; quarterly for quieter websites.

PROMPT 5: BACKLINKS & AUTHORITY
Run a READ-ONLY backlink, digital-authority, and link-reclamation audit. Do not contact anyone, buy links, remove links, upload a disavow file, or change redirects/content.

1) PROFILE AND CHANGE: Analyze referring domains, new/lost links, anchor text distribution, and referral traffic.
2) RECLAIM EXISTING EQUITY: Find linked-to 404 URLs, avoidable redirect chains, and valuable pages merged without a 301 redirect.
3) EARNED-AUTHORITY OPPORTUNITIES: Identify unlinked brand/author mentions, industry directories, podcasts, and digital PR angles.
4) RISK HANDLING: Check for manipulative link patterns; treat vendor toxicity scores as triage signals only.

Return: Direct verdict, top 5 actions, evidence table, lost-equity recovery queue, safe opportunity queue, and exact missing data.

Prompt 6 — Monthly AI/LLM Visibility Audit

Cadence: Month, Week 4; uses a fixed query panel for trend benchmarking.

PROMPT 6: AI/LLM VISIBILITY
Run a READ-ONLY AI-search and LLM-visibility audit for this site. Do not change robots.txt, create llms.txt, rewrite content, or publish.

1) CRAWLER POLICY: Check robots.txt and WAF rules for search crawlers (OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Claude-SearchBot, Bingbot) vs training crawlers (GPTBot, ClaudeBot).
2) MEASURED VISIBILITY: Track referrals from chatgpt.com, perplexity.ai, claude.ai, and Bing AI Performance citations.
3) FIXED QUERY PANEL: Test a stable panel of 15-30 queries across Entity Facts, Category Discovery, Problem/Solution, Comparisons, and Trust. Record engine, date, citation URL, accuracy, and sentiment.
4) CONTENT & ENTITY READINESS: Verify factual consistency, original data, author attribution, and Schema.org graphs.
5) MYTH CONTROL: Treat llms.txt and arbitrary content chunking as experiments, not Google Search requirements.

Return: Direct verdict, data coverage, top 5 actions, evidence table, query observation table, and factual-correction queue.

Prompt 7 — Quarterly Deep Strategy & Competitor Audit

Cadence: Quarterly after monthly datasets are gathered.

PROMPT 7: STRATEGY & COMPETITORS
Run a READ-ONLY quarterly organic-search and AI-discovery strategy audit for this website. Do not edit or publish.

1) BUSINESS-VALUE PERFORMANCE: Analyze organic and AI-referred demand by topic, landing page, and conversion outcome (leads, bookings, revenue).
2) INFORMATION ARCHITECTURE: Classify indexable pages as Protect, Improve, Consolidate, Create, or Monitor.
3) COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE: Discover search competitors by query cluster; compare intent coverage, original proof, and SERP features.
4) TECHNICAL HEALTH: Reassess indexation quality, templates, canonicals, and Core Web Vitals across the quarter's releases.
5) AUTHORITY & AI DISCOVERY: Identify which original assets generated citations, backlinks, and qualified conversions.

Return: Direct verdict, 90-day roadmap with at most 3 strategic bets (hypothesis, leading metric, outcome metric, review date), evidence table, and a 'Do less/stop' list.

Prompt 8 — Pre-Publish SEO Regression Gate

Cadence: Before domain, URL, navigation, CMS-template, or large content releases.

PROMPT 8: PRE-PUBLISH GATE
Act as an SEO release reviewer. Review the proposed site changes against the live production deployment. DO NOT publish or make new edits.
