Makes AUTH_MODE=team usable end to end. - resolveTeamContext (middleware/ensure-user/team.ts): a session resolves to a membership in the single shared workspace. No per-user fallback org — a signed-in user with no membership is treated as signed out, so the owner can actually remove people. - teamProvisioning.ts: one path that writes user + credential account + member together (hashPassword from better-auth/crypto). Shared by both entry points. - /api/team-setup (raw route, outside auth middleware): GET reports whether an owner is needed; POST creates the first owner + the shared org, then self-disables once any user exists. - /setup route + sign-in redirect: first run sends you to create the owner. - teamUsers server functions (owner/admin-gated): list / create (with temp password) / reset password / remove. Removal drops membership + sessions, keeps the user row for historical attribution. - Settings gains a "Users" tab in team mode (TeamUsers.tsx). - docs/SELF_HOSTING_TEAM_MODE.md: activation runbook (.env, build, first owner). No DB migration — all rows are existing better-auth tables. tsc / oxlint / knip clean. New teamProvisioning.test.ts (4 cases) passes; suite otherwise unchanged (pre-existing samSkills.test.ts CRLF failure only). Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

OpenSEO MCP & Agent Skills
OpenSEO exposes an MCP server so AI agents like Claude Code, OpenClaw, and Hermes can use your SEO data directly. Agent Skills are reusable workflows that guide your agent through SEO tasks using the MCP.
Self-Hosting
OpenSEO supports two self-hosting paths:
- Simple: Docker (Best for testing it out) - For personal use on your own machine. See
docs/SELF_HOSTING_DOCKER.md.- Unless you already are self-hosting other apps and are confident doing so, we recommend self-hosting with Cloudflare as opposed to Railway, Coolify or Dokploy.
- We plan to make it simpler to host on those platforms in the next few months.
- Recommended: Cloudflare - For internet-facing self-hosting across multiple devices or with your team (works on the free plan). See
docs/SELF_HOSTING_CLOUDFLARE.md.
Either way, you need a DataForSEO API key to get SEO data. See docs/DATAFORSEO_API_KEY.md.
Costs
OpenSEO needs a DataForSEO API key so that you can get SEO data. You pay them directly when self hosting.
When you self host, your costs will be slightly lower than the estimates on our website. The way the hosted service makes money is by charging 28% extra for every request we make to DataForSEO.
Local Development
