geo-citability

geo-citability is a skill for Claude Code from TheSmokeDev/geo-skills. It costs 61 tokens per session (3,588 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of geo-citability, MIT.

A review method that estimates how likely a web page is to be quoted or cited by AI systems such as ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Gemini. It checks whether the page gives clear, self-contained answers supported by specific information.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to score a page's citability from 0 to 100 and receive rewrite suggestions for answer sections and supporting claims.
Why use it?
Pages may contain useful information but still be difficult for an AI system to extract accurately. The review identifies unclear or poorly structured passages and suggests more citable wording.

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-citability 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 12d 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.

AI Citability Scoring Skill

Core Insight

AI language models cite passages that meet specific structural criteria. Research from Princeton, Georgia Tech, and IIT Delhi (2024) found that GEO-optimized content achieves 30-115% higher visibility in AI-generated responses. The key finding: AI systems preferentially extract and cite passages that are 134-167 words long, self-contained (understandable without surrounding context), fact-rich (containing specific statistics, dates, or named entities), and directly answer a question in the first 1-2 sentences.

This is fundamentally different from traditional SEO copywriting, which optimizes for keyword density and user engagement metrics. GEO citability optimizes for extractability -- the ease with which an AI system can pull a passage from your content and present it as a direct answer.


Citability Scoring Rubric (0-100)

Category 1: Answer Block Quality (30% of total score)

This measures whether content contains clear, quotable answer passages that AI systems can extract verbatim.

Scoring Criteria:

Score Criteria
90-100 Every major section opens with a 1-2 sentence direct answer. Uses "X is..." or "X refers to..." patterns. First 40-60 words of each section can stand alone as a complete answer.
70-89 Most sections have clear answer openings. Some definition patterns present. Answers are identifiable but may need minor context.
50-69 Some sections have answer-like openings but many bury the answer in the middle or end of paragraphs. Few explicit definition patterns.
30-49 Answers are generally buried in long paragraphs. No consistent definition patterns. Content is narrative-driven rather than answer-driven.
0-29 No identifiable answer blocks. Content is entirely narrative, conversational, or fragmented. AI would struggle to extract any quotable passage.

What to look for:

  • Definition patterns: "X is [definition]." / "X refers to [explanation]." / "X means [meaning]."
  • Answer-first structure: The answer appears in the first sentence, followed by supporting detail.
  • Quantified answers: "The average cost of X is $Y" rather than "Many factors affect the cost of X."
  • Comparison answers: "X differs from Y in three ways: [list]" rather than "X and Y are often confused."

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.
