## Limitations

- It does not crawl a live website by itself unless the host agent provides page content or tool access.
- It does not replace analytics platforms, search console data, or specialist SEO judgment.
- It cannot guarantee ranking changes because search results depend on many external factors.
- It may need current performance metrics before making accurate Core Web Vitals recommendations.

## Best Practices

- Provide page content, current metadata, performance metrics, and crawl notes for the most accurate audit.
- Ask for prioritized recommendations when implementation time or engineering resources are limited.
- Validate suggested metadata, schema, and redirects in staging before publishing changes.

## Anti Patterns

- Do not expect ranking guarantees from any single audit or metadata update.
- Do not optimize titles and descriptions without matching the page content and search intent.
- Do not treat Core Web Vitals suggestions as final without measuring real user and lab data.

## Security Audit

- Audited at: 2026-07-05T13:39:17.114\+00:00
- Summary: The static external command findings are false positives caused by Markdown code fences in documentation examples. The hardcoded URL appears only in sample Open Graph metadata and is not used for a network request or data transfer.
