RankControl

RankControl wins Google rankings and AI citations for your site: seven AI agents plan, write, and publish citation-optimized articles as native posts on your own CMS (WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Ghost, Notion, Wix, Framer, and headless). They watch citations and rankings, refresh pages that slip, and draft link outreach for your approval.

This repo is the RankControl Claude Code plugin and agent skill. It teaches Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and any skills-compatible agent how to run a RankControl workspace from the command line: AI visibility, content planning and publishing, backlinks, repurposing, and reports.

Claude Code, as a plugin:

/plugin marketplace add rankcontrol/rankcontrol
/plugin install rankcontrol@rankcontrol

Any skills-compatible agent:

npx skills add rankcontrol/rankcontrol

Prefer MCP tools? Local stdio via the same npm package, or the remote connector with OAuth:

claude mcp add rankcontrol -- npx rankcontrol mcp
claude mcp add --transport http rankcontrol https://api.rctrl.com/mcp

Safety: publishing, outreach, and other publicly visible actions are dry-run by default and require --confirm. Approval gates run server-side.
