What geo does

This skill optimizes sites for AI answers across ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, and Google AI Overviews. It reviews crawler permissions in robots.txt, scans brand mentions across platforms, validates schema markup, and measures citation readiness. It also outputs an llms.txt file and runs standard technical SEO checks.

The audit runs in three phases. First, it inspects the homepage to detect whether the business is SaaS, local, e-commerce, or publishing. Then it launches five subagents in parallel to inspect content quality, schema, technical SEO, and platform readiness. Finally, it compiles a composite GEO score from 0 to 100.

The tool requires WebFetch, Bash, and Write permissions to operate. If your target domain blocks automated fetches from curl, the entire discovery phase stops immediately.

What it helps with

  • score content citability across AI search engines
  • generate and validate an llms.txt standard file
  • audit AI crawler access in robots.txt
  • compile client proposals and monthly delta reports

Example prompts for the agent

  • /geo audit <url>
  • /geo citability <url>
  • /geo llmstxt <url>

What does the geo skill do?

It runs a GEO and SEO audit to prepare websites for citations in AI engines like ChatGPT and Perplexity. It scores content citability, inspects schema markup, and generates actionable reports.

Which subagents run during the full audit?

The full audit dispatches five parallel subagents: geo-ai-visibility, geo-platform-analysis, geo-technical, geo-content, and geo-schema. They analyze their respective areas before calculating the final GEO Score.

## Orchestration Logic

### Full Audit (`/geo audit <url>`)

**Phase 1: Discovery (Sequential)**
1. Fetch homepage HTML (curl or WebFetch)
2. Detect business type (SaaS, Local, E-commerce, Publisher, Agency, Other)
3. Extract key pages from sitemap.xml or internal links (up to 50 pages)

**Phase 2: Parallel Analysis (Delegate to Subagents)**
Launch these 5 subagents simultaneously:

| Subagent | File | Responsibility |
|----------|------|---------------|
| geo-ai-visibility | `agents/geo-ai-visibility.md` | GEO audit, citability, AI crawlers, llms.txt, brand mentions |
| geo-platform-analysis | `agents/geo-platform-analysis.md` | Platform-specific optimization (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AIO) |
| geo-technical | `agents/geo-technical.md` | Technical SEO, Core Web Vitals, crawlability, indexability |
| geo-content | `agents/geo-content.md` | Content quality, E-E-A-T, readability, AI content detection |
| geo-schema | `agents/geo-schema.md` | Schema markup detection, validation, generation |

**Phase 3: Synthesis (Sequential)**
1. Collect all subagent reports
2. Calculate composite GEO Score (0-100)
3. Generate prioritized action plan
4. Output client-ready report

### Scoring Methodology

| Category | Weight | Measured By |
|----------|--------|-------------|
| AI Citability & Visibility | 25% | Passage scoring, answer block quality, AI crawler access |
| Brand Authority Signals | 20% | Mentions on Reddit, YouTube, Wikipedia, LinkedIn; entity presence |
| Content Quality & E-E-A-T | 20% | Expertise signals, original data, author credentials |
| Technical Foundations | 15% | SSR, Core Web Vitals, crawlability, mobile, security |
| Structured Data | 10% | Schema completeness, JSON-LD validation, rich result eligibility |
| Platform Optimization | 10% | Platform-specific readiness (Google AIO, ChatGPT, Perplexity) |

---

## Business Type Detection

Analyze homepage for patterns:

| Type | Signals |
|------|---------|
| **SaaS** | Pricing page, "Sign up", "Free trial", "/app", "/dashboard", API docs |
| **Local Service** | Phone number, address, "Near me", Google Maps embed, service area |
| **E-commerce** | Product pages, cart, "Add to cart", price elements, product schema |
| **Publisher** | Blog, articles, bylines, publication dates, article schema |
| **Agency** | Portfolio, case studies, "Our services", client logos, testimonials |
| **Other** | Default — apply general GEO best practices |

Adjust recommendations based on detected type. Local businesses need LocalBusiness schema and Google Business Profile optimization. SaaS needs SoftwareApplication schema and comparison page strategy. E-commerce needs Product schema and review aggregation.

## PDF Report Generation

The `/geo report-pdf <url>` command converts `GEO-AUDIT-REPORT.md` into a styled, client-ready PDF.

### Requirements
- **pandoc** — `brew install pandoc`
- **Google Chrome** — `/Applications/Google Chrome.app/` (standard Mac install)

No Python dependencies required for PDF generation.

### What the PDF Includes
- **Cover page** — dark navy gradient, GEO score badge, brand/domain/date/location metadata
- **Color-coded score tables** — cells with `XX/100` values are automatically colored green/blue/amber/orange/red
- **Severity-tagged findings** — Critical/High/Medium/Low sections get colored left-border callout blocks
- **Section page breaks** — major sections break to new pages automatically
- **Styled code blocks** — JSON schema templates render with dark monospace theme

### Templates
Bundled at `~/.claude/skills/geo/templates/`:
- `geo-report-style.css` — stylesheet (edit colors, fonts, layout here)
- `geo-report-template.html` — pandoc HTML template (edit cover fields here)

### Workflow
1. Run `/geo audit <url>` to produce `GEO-AUDIT-REPORT.md`
2. Run `/geo report-pdf` — extracts metadata from the report and runs:
   ```bash
   pandoc GEO-AUDIT-REPORT.md \
     --to html5 --standalone --embed-resources \
     --template ~/.claude/skills/geo/templates/geo-report-template.html \
     --css ~/.claude/skills/geo/templates/geo-report-style.css \
     --metadata brand_name="..." --metadata geo_score="..." \
     -o GEO-REPORT.html

   "/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome" \
     --headless=new --disable-gpu --no-sandbox \
     --print-to-pdf="$(pwd)/GEO-REPORT.pdf" \
     --print-to-pdf-no-header --no-pdf-header-footer \
     --virtual-time-budget=5000 \
     "file://$(pwd)/GEO-REPORT.html"
   ```
3. Output: `GEO-REPORT.pdf` in the current directory
