Soku AIRun Competitor Research From Claude or Codex With Soku Egress
Let Claude Code or Codex call covered research APIs through Soku egress, keep provider credentials server-side, and combine keyword, backlink, and landing-page evidence into a sourced competitor brief.
Best for
Strategy, SEO, and growth teams that want a coding agent to combine multiple research providers while keeping credential handling inside Soku.
Access mode
Read-only analysis
No connected account changes.
The prompt
Read https://soku.ai/cli/skill.md, connect to my Soku workspace, list the available egress providers, and research our top five competitors across organic keywords, paid search, backlinks, positioning, and landing pages. Route covered API calls through soku egress, cite the source and date for every material fact, and clearly label inference. Never ask me to paste provider API keys. Safety boundary: do not change connected accounts or publish content. Use read commands only, and return proposed actions for a human to review separately.
Paste this into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or another shell-based agent. It will pause when browser approval or a human review is required.
What you will get
The local agent produces a sourced competitor brief from covered APIs without asking the user to paste Ahrefs, DataForSEO, or other provider credentials into the shell.
- A competitor evidence table with source URLs and retrieval dates
- A strategic brief that clearly separates observed facts, estimates, and inference
Before you start
- A Soku workspace with access to the required covered egress providers
- A confirmed competitor set or permission for the agent to discover candidates

Collect sourced evidence
Prefix covered provider requests with Soku egress so credentials are injected on the server.
soku egress -- curl 'https://api.ahrefs.com/v3/site-explorer/overview?target=example.com' - 4
Synthesize the brief
Preserve URLs, retrieval dates, and uncertainty instead of presenting modeled estimates as first-party facts.
Safety boundary
Read onlyProvider credentials stay on Soku servers and must never appear in prompts, command arguments, logs, or artifacts. The agent should treat third-party estimates as directional rather than audited facts.
