What it does

This skill teaches an AI agent to check whether a website's pages include author information in a machine-readable form (JSON-LD structured data) that search engines can use to identify who wrote the content. When asked, the agent reviews templates, rendered HTML and HTTP responses, flags pages where author markup is missing or wrong, and suggests adding a Person or Organization schema linked to the article's author property.

Great for

  • Developers maintaining a blog or content site who want to check SEO author markup
  • SEO specialists reviewing whether article pages expose author details to search engines
  • Teams preparing a metadata audit of templates before a site launch

Skip it if

  • Sites without articles or authored content, where author markup has little purpose
  • Anyone expecting guaranteed search ranking gains: the skill's own claim that author markup benefits rankings is a general SEO assertion and is not verified by the files
  • Publishing fake or unverified author identities in structured data, which can mislead search engines and users

Try asking

  • “Audit my blog post templates for missing author JSON-LD and tell me which routes need it”
  • “Add a Person schema with sameAs links to my article layout and link it to the author property”
  • “Check the rendered HTML of my site's article pages to confirm the author markup is present”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Point the agent at your actual templates and a live rendered page so it can verify output, not just source files.
  • Ask for a list of exact routes or templates that violate the rule, as the skill's Code Review section requests.
  • Validate the resulting JSON-LD with a structured data testing tool before deploying.
