Serp Keyword Harvester

SERP Keyword Harvester

This skill prepares raw search-demand evidence for the pre-design pipeline. It does not decide final site architecture or source/proxy policy; serp-source-configurator owns setup gates and this skill hands structured inputs to semantic-core-builder.

Operating Modes

• plan: define seed keywords, locales, sources, approvals, and fallback.
• harvest-local: normalize user-provided keywords, exported CSVs, existing site text, or local reports.
• harvest-external: use approved SERP/autocomplete APIs or tools; approval required before network calls.
• audit: review an existing reports/keyword-harvest.json.

Required Workflow

1. Read [references/keyword-harvest-contract.md](references/keyword-harvest-contract.md).
2. If OpenSERP, AKE, proxy, API keys, engine checkboxes, source settings, or paid-proxy limits are mentioned, route setup to serp-source-configurator first and consume its redacted reports/serp-source-config.json handoff.
3. If OpenSERP is already approved/configured, read [references/openserp-setup.md](references/openserp-setup.md) and use [assets/openserp-settings.example.json](assets/openserp-settings.example.json) only as a redacted contract, not as a credential store.
4. Confirm privacy and approval mode:

• local inputs and user-provided public facts: allowed;
• external SERP/API/crawling: explicit approval required;
• private/authenticated sources: explicit approval plus data-handling note.

1. Collect or normalize seed keywords, market/locale, project type, and source provenance.
2. Write or update reports/keyword-harvest.json using [assets/keyword-harvest.schema.json](assets/keyword-harvest.schema.json) as the field contract.
3. Label every data group as Ran, Skipped, Planned, or Manual.
4. Hand off to semantic-core-builder; do not invent missing SERP evidence.

Safety Rules

• Do not scrape or call external services without approval.
• Do not store API keys, cookies, private URLs, recovery codes, or .env values in reports.
• Treat OpenSERP as optional-cloud / external-network: no call without explicit approval, configured credentials, query scope, source config, and a data-transfer note.
• Do not decide proxy provider, paid budget, or engine selection inside this skill when it is not already explicit; use serp-source-configurator.
• If search APIs return 429/503 or are unavailable, mark the source Skipped and continue with local/user-provided inputs.
