What it does

The GSC Analyzer skill connects to the Google Search Console API and pulls query, page, and device data for any property you own. It surfaces high-impression/low-click queries, tracks position changes over custom date ranges, identifies pages losing rankings, and finds queries where you rank on page two with potential to reach page one. All analysis runs locally in your terminal.

Key features

  • Pulls query, page, and device data from the GSC API
  • Surfaces high-impression, low-CTR queries for optimization
  • Tracks position changes over custom date ranges
  • Identifies page-two rankings with page-one potential
  • Exports reports as CSV, JSON, or markdown tables

  2. Choose your analysis

Frequently asked questions

Does the GSC Analyzer require API credentials?

Yes. You need a Google Cloud project with the Search Console API enabled and OAuth credentials. The skill walks you through the setup on first run and stores credentials locally for future use.

How far back can I pull GSC data?

Google Search Console retains 16 months of search analytics data. The skill can pull any date range within that window. For longer historical tracking, export data regularly and store it locally.

Can the GSC Analyzer compare two date periods?

Yes. Specify two date ranges and the skill shows side-by-side comparisons for clicks, impressions, CTR, and position. This is useful for measuring the impact of SEO changes or tracking seasonal trends.

What are high-impression, low-CTR queries?

These are keywords where your pages appear in search results frequently but few users click. They represent CTR optimization opportunities. Improving title tags and meta descriptions for these queries can increase traffic without improving rankings.
