From 1f3f8f17b036f6a6f089570bc61630876806f92b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Harlan GitHub Agent Date: Thu, 5 Nov 2026 15:05:03 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] docs(seo): log the 5 November recovery read The 11 November gate needs panel evidence, and no read was logged after 21 October. This entry records the latest Checkpoints, the retired Sitemap state, Search Console totals, and the Googlebot edge decline, so the gate decision starts from dated evidence.

This read is not a Monday measurement. + All 41 panel URLs matched watches. No watch was missing or extra, and no Checkpoint list was empty. + Forty latest Checkpoints date from `2026-10-31T10:36Z` to `10:37Z`. Their next due times are on 7 November UTC. + The comparison's latest Checkpoint dates from `2026-11-03T21:09Z`. Its next due time is `2026-11-10T21:09Z`. + No active URL changed rung from the 20 October read. + Active groups: `trending_sample` 19 unknown; `d_probe` two unknown; `demand` three unknown; `f_comparison` one unknown. + The nine active `admitted_other` URLs reported eight unknown and one crawled, not indexed. Its excluded Repository hub reported unknown. + The `quality_excluded` URL reported unknown. + The five `retired` URLs reported four crawled, not indexed, and one excluded by noindex. + The `opusgamelabs/game-creator/worldlabs` URL moved from noindex to crawled, not indexed, on 31 October. + Its last reported Google crawl stayed at 12 June, so the change records no new crawl. + The five last reported Google crawls date from 28 April to 12 June. The retired Sitemap has not yet prompted a recrawl of them. + Google's exact `retired-0.xml` read at `2026-11-05T04:02:23Z` reported 9,988 URLs, zero errors, and one warning. + Its last download was `2026-11-03T06:20:28Z`; `isPending` was false. + The served Sitemap index also lists `retired-1.xml`, with 474 URLs. Google reported no record of that exact child. + No Sitemap submission ran. + Retained URL Inspection evidence as of `2026-11-04T21:13:14Z`, with checks from 20 August, reported one indexed URL of 10,210. + It reported 5,220 crawled, not indexed. This retained count does not compare with the Pages report baseline of 51,962. + Search Console reported 2 clicks and 93 impressions from 5 October to 1 November. The previous 28 days reported zero and 85. + The seven days from 26 October to 1 November reported one click and 10 impressions. + The homepage was the only page with more than one impression. + The brand query `skilld` reported 6 impressions at average position 63.5. + NuxtSEO Googlebot edge counts stop at 26 October; that day is partial. + Complete days fell from 315 to 609 requests a day on 11 to 13 October to 35 to 169 a day on 22 to 25 October. + This read does not establish why. + A live check of the 224 URLs in the pages, demos, and Skills Sitemaps found a 200 response and an index robots directive for each. + Twelve parallel requests drew Cloudflare 429 responses with `Retry-After: 2`. Sequential retries returned 200. + The edge counts reported no Googlebot 429 response from 29 September to 26 October. + These observations name no new repair cause. They do not decide the 11 November gate. + - 2026-10-21 Prepared ten Experiment B candidates in the [dated manifest](seo-link-experiment-candidates.json). All ten canonical destinations returned 200, allowed indexing, and appeared in the Skills sitemap. Each checked README contained no `skilld.dev` string; the manifest records its blob SHA.
