geo-platform-optimizer

geo-platform-optimizer is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from TheSmokeDev/geo-skills. It costs 34 tokens per session (5,700 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for improving how a website appears in answers from AI search tools such as Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Bing Copilot. It treats each service separately because they may use different sources and ranking methods.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to review a website for each listed AI search service and create platform-specific scores, gaps, and recommended changes.
Why use it?
Advice that improves visibility in one AI search service may not work in another. This removes the need to apply one generic checklist to every platform.

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-platform-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 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.

GEO Platform Optimizer

Core Insight

Only 11% of domains are cited by BOTH ChatGPT and Google AI Overviews for the same query. Each AI search platform uses different indexes, ranking logic, and source preferences. A page optimized for Google AI Overviews may be invisible to ChatGPT, and vice versa. Platform-specific optimization is not optional — it is the foundation of any serious GEO strategy.

How to Use This Skill

  1. Collect the target URL and the site's primary topic/industry
  2. Run each platform checklist below against the site
  3. Score each platform on the 0-100 rubric
  4. Generate GEO-PLATFORM-OPTIMIZATION.md with per-platform scores, gaps, and action items

Platform 1: Google AI Overviews (AIO)

How AIO Selects Sources

  • Only 38% of AIO-cited URLs rank in the organic top 10 — down from 76% (Ahrefs, 863K SERPs / 4M URLs, Mar 2026). 31% of citations come from positions 11-100 and 31% from beyond position 100. The cause is Gemini 3 (Jan 2026) query fan-out pulling from sub-query SERPs — page-3 organic is NOT disqualifying
  • Fan-out coverage is the new meta-factor (Zyppy scores it 9.3/10, Jun 2026): engines rewrite one prompt into a cluster of sub-queries and retrieve per sub-query. Win the cluster, not the head term
  • AIO strongly favors pages with clean structure, direct answers, and scannable formatting
  • Featured snippet optimization has meaningful overlap with AIO optimization
  • AIO prefers concise, factual, unambiguous answers — hedging and filler reduce citation probability
  • Google AI Mode is a separate surface, not a bigger AIO: AIO↔AI Mode URL overlap is only 13.7%, and AI Mode has 1B MAU (AIO 2.5B) with scarcer citation slots — 4.3 citations per response vs 10.3 in classic search (Shadow, Jul 2026 — ⚠️ secondary source). Optimize for them as distinct targets

2026 Citation Surfaces Beyond the AIO Box

Google's citation real estate now extends beyond AIO and AI Mode themselves:

  • Preferred Sources — users can star favorite outlets and get boosted Top Stories placement plus a dedicated "From your sources" section (Google Search blog, Aug 2025, US/India English launch; broader rollout through 2026). This is a Top Stories surface, NOT an AIO mechanism — but for news-adjacent queries it is part of the brand's total Google citation footprint. Earning a user's "preferred" star compounds like a subscription; publishers can link directly to a follow flow.
  • "Highly Cited" badges, Community Perspectives, and link carousels — additional in-SERP citation modules attributed to the Google I/O May 2026 announcements. ⚠️ Thin-sourced: this comes from rival skill-pack I/O 2026 notes and we have NOT independently confirmed rollout status or the exact selection mechanics. Treat as watch items — if these modules appear in your SERPs, they are additional extractable surfaces — but do not score them in the rubric until the mechanics are verified.
  • Common thread: every new surface still extracts from the same primitives — direct answers, tables, dated authorship, entity clarity. Optimizing the fundamentals covers surfaces that ship faster than any checklist can track.

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
