CLI Commands

seokit setup                    # Install slash commands, scripts, venv
seokit config                   # Configure API key
seokit update                   # Update files (preserves .env, checklists)
seokit update -f                # Reset all files to defaults
seokit uninstall                # Remove SEOKit data and slash commands

Requirements

• Python 3.10+
• Perplexity API key (get one here)

Troubleshooting

"SEOKit not configured. Run: seokit setup"

Run the setup command to install all runtime files:

seokit setup

"PERPLEXITY_API_KEY not configured"

seokit config
# Or manually:
echo "PERPLEXITY_API_KEY=pplx-your-key" >> ~/.claude/seokit/.env

Commands not found

Run seokit setup to install slash commands:

seokit setup

This copies the slash command files to ~/.claude/commands/.

Update

pip install -U seokit  # Update package
seokit update          # Update slash commands, scripts & checklists

Use seokit update -f to reset all files to defaults (overwrites checklists).

Checklist System

SEOKit uses a two-tier checklist system:

Common Checklists (Package)

Located in $SEOKIT_HOME/checklists/:

• outline-checklist.md - Universal outline rules
• article-checklist.md - Universal article rules

These update automatically with SEOKit.

Custom Checklist (Project)

Create seokit-checklist.md in your project root for custom rules:

cp "$SEOKIT_HOME/checklists/seokit-checklist-template.md" ./seokit-checklist.md

Sections:

• ## Shared Rules - Applied to both outline and article
• ## Outline Overrides - Applied only to /create-outline
• ## Article Overrides - Applied only to /write-seo

Custom rules can override common rules (e.g., stricter limits, brand requirements).

Uninstall

seokit uninstall      # Removes data, slash commands, and pip package

On modern Linux (Ubuntu 23.04+, Debian 12+)

If you see externally-managed-environment error (PEP 668):

# If installed with pip
pip uninstall seokit --break-system-packages

# If installed with pipx
pipx uninstall seokit
