Is the SEO Translator skill free?

Yes. The skill itself is free from Skillproofdev/seo-translator. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.

What is the SEO Translator SkillProof Score?

8.4/10 — installs cleanly 5/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 7/10, docs & honesty 4/5.

How do I install SEO Translator?

Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.

Can I use SEO Translator with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?

The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.

Verdict: Tested · Works

Our own skill — tested under the same protocol, disclosed. No bench/results/verdict.md exists for this skill; the only evidence is a production run, not a controlled base-vs-skill A/B — translating a 2,900-word article into 10 languages averaged 76,263 tokens and 4m53s per language (range 61k-93k tokens), following the skill's classify-register-protect-translate-anti-AI-pass workflow. That demonstrates real-scale, transparently-reported token cost, but not a proven quality or efficiency win over unguided translation prompting. Protocol test caught real issues in our own repos (dead benchmark links, strict-YAML frontmatter) — fixed and re-verified same day.

What SEO Translator does

Adds an SEO-aware translation methodology to Claude: per-market register defaults, a never-translate list for brand names/code/URLs, SEO field-length limits for titles and meta descriptions, and a mandatory anti-AI-pattern pass. Distilled from SkillProof's own multi-language site localization work, with real per-language token costs published from a measured run rather than estimated.
