* Audit crawl: retry chunks conservatively and stop re-learning the window per chunk Production audits on heavy-page sites (500-700KB/page) died with exceededMemory in the first crawl chunk, and the single step retry re-ran the exact same profile and died again. - claimChunk now reports isRetry (leftover leases from a dead attempt); a retried chunk crawls under RETRY_CRAWL_WINDOW (start 3, max 5, halved byte budget) instead of restarting at window 10. - The adapted window carries across chunks via durable step results, so every ~200 pages no longer re-spikes to the initial window. - First persist sub-batch shrinks to 5 pages so the byte bound sees the site's page weight before a full 25-page batch is in flight. - In-flight HTML budget halved to 8 MiB (16 MiB never constrained the observed ~650KB pages: bound was 25, above the 20 max); growth now requires a full 25-page sample. - Parse-time caps: 1,000 extracted links/images per page so mega-menu and crawler-trap pages can't bloat retained persist batches. * Guard endWindow for instances replaying pre-deploy step results * ci: un-export internal-only interfaces (knip)

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
