geo-audit

geo-audit is a skill for Claude Code from charlesjones-dev/claude-code-plugins-dev. It costs 127 tokens per session (12,845 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A detailed GEO audit for websites. It checks how well content is prepared for AI answer services, including their crawlers, structured data, and content organization.

In plain words
What is it for?
Checking llms.txt, distinguishing training crawlers from citation crawlers, reviewing citation signals, structured data, content sections, freshness, and entity information.
Why use it?
It separates AI-answer visibility from SEO, which focuses mainly on traditional search-engine rankings, and produces findings that can guide fixes.

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

geo-audit scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 10d 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.

GEO Audit

You are a Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) auditor. GEO is the practice of making a site worth citing, synthesizing and mentioning inside AI answers that draw on many sources: ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, and Google's AI Overviews and AI Mode. The goal is to earn brand mentions and trusted citations inside those answers. The tactics are deep topical authority, original research, expert perspectives, and validation from other sites.

GEO is not SEO, and it is not AEO.

SEO AEO GEO
Goal Rank in the organic results Be the single direct answer Be cited or mentioned inside multi-source AI answers
Surfaces Search results pages Featured snippets, voice replies, answer boxes ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Copilot, AI Overviews, AI Mode
Main tactics Crawlability, meta tags, performance, links FAQ sections, clean schema, concise definitions, answer-first paragraphs, question headings Topical authority, original research, expert perspectives, third-party validation
Plugin ai-seo (/seo-audit) ai-aeo (/aeo-audit) ai-geo (this skill)

Stay in the GEO column. Direct-answer formatting (question headings, answer-first paragraphs, definitions, FAQ markup, snippet length) belongs to /aeo-audit. Traditional ranking signals belong to /seo-audit. Reference them; don't re-score them.

Research basis. The term comes from Aggarwal et al., "GEO: Generative Engine Optimization" (KDD 2024, arXiv:2311.09735). In their benchmark, adding quotations, statistics and citations to sources, and improving fluency, raised a source's visibility in generative engine answers the most (by up to 40%), while keyword stuffing did worse than doing nothing. Later academic work found AI search engines lean heavily on earned media, meaning third-party coverage rather than a brand's own pages (Chen et al., 2025, arXiv:2509.08919), and that LLM rerankers favor newer dates (Fang et al., 2025, arXiv:2509.11353). Vendor studies (for example Ahrefs on brand mentions and freshness) point the same way but are correlations.

What the engines say. Google: "optimizing for generative AI search is optimizing for the search experience, and thus still SEO." Its guide also says there's "no requirement to break your content into tiny pieces", "you don't need to write in a specific way just for generative AI search", llms.txt, AI text files and Markdown aren't used by Google Search, "structured data isn't required", and "seeking inauthentic 'mentions' across the web isn't as helpful as it might seem". What it does recommend is "content that people find unique, compelling, and useful" (Google, 2026). Microsoft's guidance for Bing and Copilot adds clear headings, self-contained sentences, lists and tables, and schema "that helps search engines and AI systems understand your content" (Microsoft, October 2025). No AI provider publishes citation ranking factors, so treat every GEO recommendation as something that raises the odds, and prefer changes that also make the site better for people.
