Why connect Semrush to Claude Code?

Claude Code works in the repo where your pages, titles and redirects live. With Lemonado it can read Semrush positions and gaps, compare them with what each page actually says, and make the change or write the brief next to the file.

  • All your Semrush data

    Organic keyword positions and changes, ready to ask about.

  • Always today's numbers

    Competitor domains and their top keywords, synced from Semrush automatically, so answers use today's numbers.

  • Connect all your tools

    Questions like "Are we paying for rankings we have?" use Semrush and Search Console, Ahrefs at once.

  5. 5

    Ask Claude Code about Semrush

    Ask a question about the accounts your connection can reach. Claude Code can also write the numbers into a file or a script for you. Try "For our 20 pages with the most Semrush keywords at positions 4 to 15, check whether the title and H1 in the code use the main keyword. List the ones that don't." Or ask: "Are two pages competing?" or "Can you write the briefs?"

Good to know

  • The command uses Claude Code's default local scope. Use --scope user to share the server across projects.

What can Claude Code do with Semrush?

Claude Code queries your Semrush data while it works in your repo: it saves data as files, checks tracking against code and runs headless with claude -p.

7 of 20 miss it. guides/sleeping-bags.mdx targets "sleeping bag guide" but the title says "Everything about bags".
