Calculate Click Depth
seo.calculate_click_depth
Overview
Run a deterministic BFS from supplied start URLs. We never fetch a URL, run a script, or choose a winner. A successful call costs 1 execution credit.
Click depth is a BFS on the graph you send, not a live crawl budget.
Reliability
seo.calculate_click_depth is stable for identical input. Identical input always produces identical JSON. SEO_INPUT_REQUIRED means a required field is missing or has the wrong shape, so send the published object rather than a guessed map; retrying unchanged will not help. SEO_INPUT_TOO_LARGE means a value exceeds its ceiling, so trim it. SEO_HTML_MALFORMED means the HTML could not be parsed under the offline HTML contract, so fix the markup. SEO_XML_MALFORMED means the XML is not well-formed, so correct it. SEO_XML_DOCTYPE_NOT_ALLOWED means the XML includes a DOCTYPE declaration, so strip the DOCTYPE and resend; we refuse DTDs rather than expanding entities. SEO_JSONLD_MALFORMED means a JSON-LD block is not usable JSON, so correct it. SEO_PROFILE_UNKNOWN means the named profile is not bundled, so send one of the published profile ids. SEO_TOO_MANY_RECORDS means a list exceeded its ceiling, so split the batch. SEO_GRAPH_LIMIT_EXCEEDED means the graph exceeded its node or edge ceiling, so shrink it. SEO_INVALID_URL means a URL string is not a usable RFC 3986 URI, so send an absolute URI. SEO_OBSERVATION_INCOMPLETE means required observation coverage is missing, so add the missing evidence. SEO_INPUT_CONFLICT means two fields that cannot be used together were both supplied, so drop one. Retrying an unchanged request will not help.
Context footprint
Returns a compact structured record. A successful call costs 1 execution credit.
When to use it
When you already have a closed adjacency graph and start URLs, and need BFS depth plus unreachable nodes.
When you still need the graph built, or you want orphans rather than depth.

- Payloads are not sent to an external service by this skill.
- Squillify does not permanently store submitted payloads.
- Telemetry records metadata only, not submitted content.
- Submitted payloads are not used for training.
- Submitted payloads are not reviewed by humans.
- This skill does not target sensitive data.
- The response may contain submitted or transformed content.
Your responsibility
Squillify does not determine whether submitted content is sensitive. Your application is responsible for deciding what data it is allowed to submit. Your application is responsible for securing the response.
Input schema
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| graph | object | Yes | Closed adjacency graph from seo.extract_internal_link_graph. Send nodes as identity keys and edges as {from, to, type, source}. A url-to-links map is refused. nodeCount and edgeCount are optional on input and present on extract output. |
| startUrls | array | Yes | Required. Closed array 'startUrls' with named properties or bounded items used by this skill, up to 10,000 entries or 64 properties. |
| maxDepth | integer | No | The maxDepth value for this offline analysis, up to 1 MiB. Omit it and we apply the published default for maxDepth. |
Output schema
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| depths | object | Yes | Named integer map. Each property name is a key for this skill; each value is a count or depth. |
| unreachable | array | Yes | Required. Structured 'unreachable' value. Objects expose named properties; arrays list bounded rows or strings produced from the supplied artifacts, up to 10,000 entries. |
| maxDepth | integer | Yes | Required. Structured 'maxDepth' value produced by this offline analysis. |
| startCount | integer | Yes | Required. Structured 'startCount' value produced by this offline analysis. |
