# GEO-SEO Update Skill
## Purpose
Updates the locally installed GEO-SEO skills, agents, scripts, and schema templates to the latest version from the upstream repository. Shows a summary of what changed before and after the update.
---
## Update Workflow
### Step 1: Determine Installed Location
The GEO-SEO toolkit installs to these locations under `~/.claude/`:
| Component | Install Path |
|-----------|-------------|
| Main skill | `~/.claude/skills/geo/` |
| Sub-skills | `~/.claude/skills/geo-*/` |
| Agents | `~/.claude/agents/geo-*.md` |
| Scripts | `~/.claude/skills/geo/scripts/` |
| Schema templates | `~/.claude/skills/geo/schema/` |
| Hooks | `~/.claude/skills/geo/hooks/` |
Verify the installation exists by checking for `~/.claude/skills/geo/SKILL.md`. If it does not exist, inform the user that GEO-SEO is not installed and suggest running the installer instead.
### Step 2: Clone Latest from Upstream
```bash
TEMP_DIR=$(mktemp -d)
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/zubair-trabzada/geo-seo-claude.git "$TEMP_DIR/repo"
```
If the clone fails, report the error and stop. Do not modify any installed files.
### Step 3: Compare Installed vs Latest
Before copying files, generate a diff summary so the user knows what will change:
1. For each component directory, compare the installed files against the cloned files using `diff --recursive --brief`.
2. Categorise changes as:
- **New files** — exist in upstream but not locally
- **Modified files** — exist in both but differ
- **Removed files** — exist locally but not in upstream (these are NOT deleted automatically)
3. Present the summary to the user.
### Step 4: Apply Updates
Copy files from the cloned repo over the installed locations:
```bash
CLAUDE_DIR="${HOME}/.claude"
SOURCE_DIR="$TEMP_DIR/repo"
# Main skill
cp -r "$SOURCE_DIR/geo/"* "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/geo/"
# Sub-skills
for skill_dir in "$SOURCE_DIR/skills"/*/; do
skill_name=$(basename "$skill_dir")
mkdir -p "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/${skill_name}"
cp -r "$skill_dir"* "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/${skill_name}/"
done
# Agents
for agent_file in "$SOURCE_DIR/agents/"*.md; do
cp "$agent_file" "$CLAUDE_DIR/agents/"
done
# Scripts
if [ -d "$SOURCE_DIR/scripts" ]; then
cp -r "$SOURCE_DIR/scripts/"* "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/geo/scripts/"
chmod +x "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/geo/scripts/"*.py 2>/dev/null || true
fi
# Schema templates
if [ -d "$SOURCE_DIR/schema" ]; then
cp -r "$SOURCE_DIR/schema/"* "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/geo/schema/"
fi
# Hooks
if [ -d "$SOURCE_DIR/hooks" ] && [ "$(ls -A "$SOURCE_DIR/hooks" 2>/dev/null)" ]; then
mkdir -p "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/geo/hooks"
cp -r "$SOURCE_DIR/hooks/"* "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/geo/hooks/"
chmod +x "$CLAUDE_DIR/skills/geo/hooks/"* 2>/dev/null || true
fi
```
### Step 5: Update Python Dependencies
If `requirements.txt` exists in the upstream repo and differs from the installed version:
```bash
python3 -m pip install -r "$SOURCE_DIR/requirements.txt" --quiet
```
Report any failures but do not treat them as fatal.
### Step 6: Clean Up
```bash
rm -rf "$TEMP_DIR"
```
### Step 7: Report Results
Present a summary:
```
GEO-SEO Update Complete
=======================
New files: [count]
Modified files: [count]
Unchanged: [count]
Removed upstream (kept locally): [count]
Dependencies: [updated / unchanged / failed]
```
If there were removed files upstream, list them and suggest the user review whether to delete them manually.
---
## Important Notes
- **Never delete locally installed files** that no longer exist upstream. The user may have customised them. List them and let the user decide.
- **Never modify `~/.claude/settings.json` or `~/.claude/settings.local.json`** — these are user configuration files, not part of the GEO-SEO toolkit.
- **If already up to date** (no diff), report that and skip the copy step.
- **Restart notice:** Remind the user that skill changes take effect in new Claude Code sessions. They should restart their session to use the updated skills.
