Use this skill whenever you are working on content, websites, or digital marketing projects that need to be optimized for AI-powered search engines and LLM-based answer engines (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Google AI Overviews, etc.).
When creating or optimizing content for AI search visibility, load the ./rules/content-strategy.md file for authoritative content creation principles and best practices.
When deciding what types of content to create for maximum AI citation potential, load the ./rules/content-types.md file for guidance on suitable and unsuitable content formats.
When implementing technical GEO on a website, load the ./rules/technical-optimization.md file for the complete technical checklist and implementation details.
When implementing Schema.org markup and structured data for AI discoverability, load the ./rules/structured-data.md file for schemas, examples, and best practices.
When configuring robots.txt to allow or manage AI search crawlers, load the ./rules/ai-crawler-config.md file for crawler-specific directives.
When setting up the llms.txt standard for machine-readable site information, load the ./rules/llms-txt.md file for the specification and implementation guide.
When building authority and trust signals for AI engines, load the ./rules/eeat-optimization.md file for E-E-A-T strategies tailored to generative search.
When building external signals and off-page authority for AI citation, load the ./rules/authority-building.md file for tactics and platforms.
When understanding how different AI search platforms select and cite sources, load the ./rules/ai-search-engines.md file for platform-specific optimization guidance.
When optimizing for AI brand mentions across LLM responses, load the ./rules/brand-mentions.md file for mention frequency, sentiment, and buyer journey strategies.
When submitting product data to AI shopping platforms or optimizing e-commerce pages for AI citations, load the ./rules/product-feed.md file for feed formats and product schema.
When setting up tracking for AI search performance, load the ./rules/analytics-monitoring.md file for metrics, tools, and monitoring workflows.
