# Google Search Console CLI Skill

You have access to `google-search-console-cli`, a CLI for the Google Search Console API. Use it to query search analytics, inspect URL indexing, and manage sites and sitemaps.

## Quick start

```bash
# Check if the CLI is available
google-search-console-cli --help

# List accessible sites
google-search-console-cli sites
```

If the CLI is not installed, install it:

```bash
npm install -g google-search-console-cli
```

## Authentication

The CLI uses a Google service account. Credentials are resolved in this order:

1. `--credentials <path>` flag (per-command)
2. `GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS` env var
3. `~/.config/google-search-console-cli/credentials.json` (auto-detected)
4. gcloud Application Default Credentials

Before running any command, verify credentials are configured by running `google-search-console-cli sites`. If it fails with a credentials error, ask the user to set up authentication.

## Site URL formats

Search Console uses two property types:

- **URL-prefix property**: `https://www.example.com/` (must include trailing slash and protocol)
- **Domain property**: `sc-domain:example.com` (covers all protocols and subdomains)

Always use the exact format as registered in Search Console. The site URL is a positional argument for most commands.

## Output format

All commands output pretty-printed JSON by default. Use `--format compact` for single-line JSON (useful for piping).

## Commands

### Search analytics query

The `query` command is the primary tool for search performance data.

```bash
google-search-console-cli query <siteUrl> --start-date <date> --end-date <date> [options]
```

**Required:**
- `--start-date <date>` -- Start date (YYYY-MM-DD)
- `--end-date <date>` -- End date (YYYY-MM-DD)

**Optional:**
- `--dimensions <names>` -- Comma-separated: `date`, `query`, `page`, `country`, `device`, `searchAppearance`, `hour`
- `--type <type>` -- Search type: `web` (default), `image`, `video`, `news`, `discover`, `googleNews`
- `--dimension-filter <json>` -- JSON array of dimension filter groups (see below)
- `--aggregation-type <type>` -- `auto`, `byPage`, `byProperty`, `byNewsShowcasePanel`
- `--row-limit <n>` -- Max rows, 1-25000 (default 1000)
- `--start-row <n>` -- Starting row offset (default 0)
- `--data-state <state>` -- Data freshness: `all`, `final`, `hourly_all`
- `--all` -- Fetch all rows with auto-pagination (mutually exclusive with `--start-row`)

**Response fields per row:**
- `keys` -- Array of dimension values (in the order specified by `--dimensions`)
- `clicks` -- Number of clicks
- `impressions` -- Number of impressions
- `ctr` -- Click-through rate (0.0 to 1.0)
- `position` -- Average position in search results

#### Auto-pagination with --all

When `--all` is specified, the CLI automatically paginates through all results (using 25000 rows per page) and returns the complete dataset. This is useful for exporting all data without manual pagination.

```bash
# Get ALL queries (auto-paginates through all pages)
google-search-console-cli query https://www.example.com/ \
  --start-date 2026-02-16 \
  --end-date 2026-03-17 \
  --dimensions query \
  --all
```

Note: `--all` and `--start-row` cannot be used together. When `--all` is used, `--row-limit` is ignored.

### Sites management

```bash
# List all sites
google-search-console-cli sites

# Get info about a specific site
google-search-console-cli site <siteUrl>

# Add a site (requires Full permission)
google-search-console-cli site-add <siteUrl>

# Remove a site (requires Full permission)
google-search-console-cli site-remove <siteUrl>
```

### Sitemaps management

```bash
# List sitemaps for a site
google-search-console-cli sitemaps <siteUrl>

# List sitemaps under a specific sitemap index
google-search-console-cli sitemaps <siteUrl> --sitemap-index <url>

# Get info about a specific sitemap
google-search-console-cli sitemap <siteUrl> <feedpath>

# Submit a sitemap (requires Full permission)
google-search-console-cli sitemap-submit <siteUrl> <feedpath>

# Delete a sitemap (requires Full permission)
google-search-console-cli sitemap-delete <siteUrl> <feedpath>
```

### URL inspection

```bash
# Inspect a single URL's index status
google-search-console-cli inspect <siteUrl> <inspectionUrl>

# With a specific language for messages
google-search-console-cli inspect <siteUrl> <inspectionUrl> --language zh-CN
```

The `--language` option controls the language of the messages in the response (default: `en-US`).

The response includes: index status (indexing state, crawl time, robots.txt status, canonical URL), AMP analysis (if applicable), mobile usability, and rich results detection.

### Batch URL inspection

Inspect multiple URLs in a single command:

```bash
# From a file (one URL per line)
google-search-console-cli inspect-batch https://www.example.com/ --file urls.txt

# From stdin
cat urls.txt | google-search-console-cli inspect-batch https://www.example.com/

# With compact format (NDJSON, streams results as they complete)
cat urls.txt | google-search-console-cli inspect-batch https://www.example.com/ --format compact
```

Options:
- `--file <path>` -- File with URLs (one per line); reads stdin if omitted
- `--language <code>` -- Language code for messages (default: `en-US`)

Progress is written to stderr: `Inspecting 1/50: https://...`

With `--format compact`, each result is streamed as NDJSON (one JSON object per line) as soon as it completes. With `--format json` (default), all results are collected and output as a JSON array at the end.

Per-URL errors are captured in the output (with an `error` field) without stopping the batch.

## Dimension filter groups

The `--dimension-filter` option takes a JSON array of filter groups. Each filter group contains:

- `groupType` -- `"and"` (all filters must match)
- `filters` -- Array of filter objects

Each filter object:
- `dimension` -- One of: `query`, `page`, `country`, `device`, `searchAppearance`
- `operator` -- One of: `equals`, `notEquals`, `contains`, `notContains`, `includingRegex`, `excludingRegex`
- `expression` -- The value to match against

**Country codes** use 3-letter ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 format (e.g., `USA`, `GBR`, `DEU`, `JPN`).

**Device values**: `DESKTOP`, `MOBILE`, `TABLET`.

### Filter examples

Single filter:
```json
[{"groupType":"and","filters":[{"dimension":"country","operator":"equals","expression":"USA"}]}]
```

Multiple filters (AND):
```json
[{"groupType":"and","filters":[{"dimension":"country","operator":"equals","expression":"USA"},{"dimension":"device","operator":"equals","expression":"MOBILE"}]}]
```

Regex filter:
```json
[{"groupType":"and","filters":[{"dimension":"query","operator":"includingRegex","expression":"buy|purchase|order"}]}]
```

Page filter:
```json
[{"groupType":"and","filters":[{"dimension":"page","operator":"contains","expression":"/blog/"}]}]
```

```

## Workflow guidance

### When the user asks for a search performance overview

1. Run `google-search-console-cli sites` to find accessible sites
2. Run a `query` with `--dimensions date` for the daily trend
3. Run a `query` with `--dimensions query` for top queries
4. Present key metrics: total clicks, impressions, average CTR, average position

### When the user asks about a specific page's SEO

1. Use `query` with `--dimensions query` and a `--dimension-filter` for the page URL
2. Use `inspect` to check the page's index status
3. Cross-reference query rankings (position) with indexing health

### When the user asks about mobile vs desktop performance

1. Run `query` with `--dimensions device` for the overview
2. Optionally drill down with `--dimensions query,device` to find queries that perform differently across devices

### When the user asks about international performance

1. Run `query` with `--dimensions country` for country breakdown
2. Drill down with `--dimension-filter` for specific countries

### When the user asks about indexing issues

1. Use `inspect` for specific URLs, or `inspect-batch` for bulk checking
2. Check sitemaps with `sitemaps` and `sitemap` commands
3. Look at the inspection response for crawl errors, indexing blocks, or mobile usability issues

### When the user wants to export all search data

1. Use `query` with `--all` to auto-paginate through all results
2. Use `--format compact` for NDJSON output suitable for piping to `jq` or other tools

## Permission levels

- **Read-only (Restricted)**: `sites`, `site`, `query`, `sitemaps`, `sitemap`, `inspect`, `inspect-batch`
- **Write (Full)**: `site-add`, `site-remove`, `sitemap-submit`, `sitemap-delete`

Most analysis workflows only need read-only permission.

## Error handling

- **Authentication errors** -- ask the user to verify their service account credentials
- **403 Permission denied** -- the service account lacks access to the site; it must be added per-site in Search Console settings
- **Empty results** -- check date range (data is typically available 2-3 days after the date), verify the site URL format matches the registered property
- **400 Bad request** -- check dimension filter JSON syntax and field compatibility
