The seed job is triggered whenever a template job changes. The idea is that you can configure a job outside of the DSL and then use that job as a template for other job with the using method. When the template changes, the seed job will re-generated all generated job. See https://github.com/jenkinsci/job-dsl-plugin/wiki/Job-reference#using:

When they are changed, the seed job will attempt to re-run, which has the side-effect of cascading changes of the template the jobs generated from it.

If the template job is also created by the same seed job, the seed job will run twice.

To avoid this you can use Groovy helper code to generate nearly identical jobs instead of templates. See the Jenkins Job DSL Gradle Example and some hints in the wiki here and here.
