v2.0.0 — Domain-Based Skills, Scoring Frameworks & Agent Architecture

What's New in v2.0.0

Breaking Change

Skills reorganized from flat skills/ directory into domain-based subdirectories. Plugin.json updated — fresh installs require v2.0.0+.

New Structure

audit/         — Technical SEO, On-Page, Content, Speed, Penalty, Accessibility
local/         — Local SEO, Entity, Multi-Location, Reputation, Brand SERP
research/      — Intake, Competitor, Keyword Gaps, Content Gaps, Topical Gaps
strategy/      — Topical Authority, Backlinks, Social Media, UX/CRO
ai-visibility/ — AI SEO, Voice Search
cross-cutting/ — Identity, LOCAL-IMPACT, SERP-TRUST
output/        — Report Generation, PDF Report

New Features

• LOCAL-IMPACT Framework — 60 items, 8 dimensions, 0–3 scale, 6 veto conditions
• SERP-TRUST Framework — 50 items, 5 dimensions, 0–4 scale, 7 veto conditions
• SEO Health Index — (LOCAL-IMPACT × 0.55) + (SERP-TRUST × 0.45)
• 3 new skills: local-impact-auditor, serp-trust-auditor, multi-location-seo (27 total)
• 4 new commands: /generate-pdf, /export-html, /score-local-impact, /score-serp-trust (40 total)
• references/ directory with scoring benchmarks, phase checklists, and methodology docs
• AGENTS.md — 6-agent parallel execution architecture documented
• CONNECTORS.md — MCP connector patterns and step-by-step activation guide

Fixes

• agents field restored to plugin.json (6 sub-agents were orphaned)
• Removed non-standard capabilities, metadata, schemaVersion fields from plugin.json
• hooks and mcpServers now use path-string format per official spec
• .claude/settings.json is now the single authoritative settings file
• .vscode/settings.json removed (security risk in distributed plugin)
• .gitignore updated with proper exclusions
• audit/.gitkeep — inter-skill output directory present on fresh clones
