Install

Download source zip No release zip yet

This is the repository archive. It installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow.

Install straight from GitHub with WP-CLI:

wp plugin install https://github.com/sahibbilal/wp-seo-copilot/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

Readme github.com/sahibbilal/wp-seo-copilot ↗

AI-written meta titles and descriptions for every post and page.

WP SEO Copilot reads your content and generates optimized meta titles (50–60 chars) and descriptions (140–160 chars) using Claude AI — one click per post or bulk-generate everything missing at once. Works with Yoast, RankMath, AIOSEO, and standalone.

What It Does

Dashboard shows all posts/pages with their current meta title, description, character counts, and coverage stats
✨ Generate per post — Claude reads the title + content and writes keyword-rich, click-worthy SEO meta
Live character counters — turn red when over the limit
✨ Generate All Missing — bulk-processes everything without SEO meta, sequentially, with a live progress bar
Auto-saves after generation — no extra clicks
SEO plugin detection — auto-detects Yoast, RankMath, or AIOSEO and saves to the correct fields
Fallback output — if no SEO plugin is installed, outputs <meta name="description"> and <title> directly in <head>

SEO Plugin Compatibility

Plugin	Fields Written
Yoast SEO	`_yoast_wpseo_title`, `_yoast_wpseo_metadesc`
RankMath	`rank_math_title`, `rank_math_description`
AIOSEO	`_aioseo_title`, `_aioseo_description`
None (standalone)	`_wseo_meta_title`, `_wseo_meta_desc` + `<head>` output

Data is written to all field sets simultaneously — switching SEO plugins won't lose your generated meta.
