Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

aeo-geo-optimizer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 338 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

AEO/GEO Optimizer

Optimize content and websites for AI-powered search experiences — ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, and Bing Copilot.

Why This Matters

Traditional SEO optimizes for 10 blue links. AEO/GEO optimizes for AI-generated answers. When someone asks ChatGPT or Perplexity a question, the answer synthesizes from sources — and those sources get cited, linked, and trusted. If your content is not structured for AI consumption, you are invisible in the fastest-growing search channel.

Core Concepts

AEO vs GEO vs Traditional SEO

Dimension Traditional SEO AEO (Answer Engine) GEO (Generative Engine)
Target Google/Bing SERPs Featured snippets, AI Overviews, voice assistants ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude citations
Goal Rank on page 1 Be THE answer Be cited in AI-generated responses
Content format Long-form, keyword-rich Concise, structured Q&A Authoritative, quotable, fact-dense
Signals Backlinks, keywords, UX Schema markup, direct answers, authority E-E-A-T, data density, citation-worthiness
Measurement Rankings, traffic Answer box appearance, voice search hits AI citation tracking, brand mentions in AI

The Citation Hierarchy

AI models prioritize sources based on:

  1. Authority signals — Domain authority, author expertise, institutional backing
  2. Content structure — Clear headings, direct answers, structured data
  3. Freshness — Recent publication dates, updated statistics
  4. Specificity — Exact numbers, named sources, verifiable claims
  5. Uniqueness — Original research, proprietary data, novel frameworks

AEO/GEO Audit Workflow

Step 1: Assess Current AI Visibility

  1. Test AI citation presence: Query ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews with questions your content should answer. Document which queries cite your content vs competitors.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
