Product page
- Search Intelligence Core for Magento 2 (SKU
tm-search-intelligence-core)
Overview
Search Intelligence Core is the hub of the Towering Media SEO suite. On its own it provides the dashboard, the SEO agent console, the advisory and opportunity queues, and the change-set approval workflow. It does not pull data or apply changes by itself — the connectors (GSC, GA4, DataForSEO, Google Ads) supply data, and the appliers (Magento SEO, Opportunity Optimizer) propose and apply changes. Everything is approval-gated.
What this extension does
- Central SEO dashboard and operations timeline.
- SEO agent console and advisory queue.
- Opportunity review and change-set approval workflow.
- Optimization run tracking and intelligence digest.
- LLM budget, API spend, and achievability controls shared across the suite.
- Research and opportunity scan scheduling.
Requirements
- Magento 2.4.x (Open Source or Adobe Commerce).
- PHP: ^8.1 || ^8.2 || ^8.3 || ^8.4 (as declared by the published package).
- A current Toweringmedia license and Composer credentials for
https://composer.toweringmedia.com/. - Requires
toweringmedia/module-ai-core— Composer installs it automatically. - AI Core must be configured with a working AI provider before the agent console and proposals will function.
- Data connectors and appliers are licensed separately.

General installation notes that apply to every Toweringmedia extension are in the installation guide.
Configuration
- Stores > Configuration > Towering Media > Search Intelligence Core Settings (config section
search_intelligence_core). - Groups:
general,llm_budget,api_spend,achievability,ai_console,research_schedule,opportunity_scan, andautonomous_optimization. - Admin screens: Towering Media > Marketing & Merchandising > Intelligence SEO Suite > Dashboard, SEO Agent, Advisory Queue, Opportunity Review, Change Sets, Optimization Runs, Operations Timeline, Intelligence Digest, Connectors, Technical SEO, Enhancements, Core Settings.
Basic usage and what to expect
- Configure AI Core, then set the LLM budget and API spend caps in Core Settings before running anything. These caps are what stop an unattended run from spending more than you intend.
- Install at least one connector so Core has real data to work from.
- Review proposals in Advisory Queue and Opportunity Review; nothing is applied to the store until a change set is approved.
Notes and limitations
- Core is the required base for every other Search Intelligence module. Installing a connector without Core will not give you a working SEO workflow.
Validation checklist
bin/magento module:statusshows the module(s) as enabled.- Extension configuration saves without errors in Admin.
- The admin screens listed above are reachable and load without error.
- Expected storefront/admin behavior is present after a cache flush.
- No critical PHP/JS errors appear in
var/log/during the primary test flow.
Troubleshooting
- Composer cannot find the package: confirm the
https://composer.toweringmedia.com/repository and your credentials are present inauth.json, and that your license covers this package. - Feature not visible: verify module status, flush cache, and redeploy static content.
- Admin setting not applying: clear cache and confirm the config scope (default / website / store view).
- Unexpected behavior: retest with only the required related modules enabled.
