If the profile is missing or stale (>90 days), declare `DONE_WITH_CONCERNS` and recommend `entity-optimizer` as an open loop. - **Writes**: a user-facing content, metadata, or schema deliverable plus a reusable summary that can be stored under `memory/content/`. - **Promotes**: approved angles, messaging choices, missing evidence, and publish blockers to `memory/hot-cache.md` and `memory/open-loops.md`; propose durable decisions as pending-decision items. - **Primary next skill**: use the `Next Best Skill` below when the asset is ready for review or deployment. ### Handoff Summary > Emit the standard shape from [skill-contract.md §Handoff Summary Format](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/references/skill-contract.md). ## Data Sources Use `~~AI monitor` and `~~SEO tool` when connected; otherwise ask for target queries, content, engines, competitor examples, and known AI-citation gaps. See [CONNECTORS.md](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/CONNECTORS.md). ## Instructions When a user requests GEO optimization, run these five steps: 1. **Load CORE-EEAT GEO-First Targets** — prioritize C02, C09, O03, O05, E01, O02 plus engine-specific preferences. 2. **Analyze Current Content** — score clear definitions, quotable statements, factual density, source citations, Q&A format, authority signals, freshness, and structure clarity. 3. **Apply GEO Techniques** — add standalone 25-50 word definitions, sourced quotable statements, expert/source signals, Q&A/tables/lists, specific data, and visible-content-matching FAQ schema. 4. **Generate GEO Output** — report Changes Made, before/after GEO score, and AI Query Coverage. 5. **CORE-EEAT GEO Self-Check** — verify C02, C04, C09, O02, O03, O05, O06, R01, R02, R04, R07, E01, Exp10, Ept08 with Pass/Warn/Fail. > **Reference**: See [references/instructions-detail.md](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/instructions-detail.md) for the full CORE-EEAT GEO target tables, AI engine preferences, analysis templates, optimization report template, self-check matrix, and examples. ## Example **User**: "Optimize this paragraph for GEO: 'Email marketing is a good way to reach customers. It's been around for a while and many businesses use it.'" **Output** adds a clear definition, dated/source-backed facts, structured list, quotable statements, and a before/after GEO score. See the full pattern in [references/instructions-detail.md](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/instructions-detail.md#example). ## GEO Optimization Checklist > **Reference**: See the GEO Readiness Checklist in [references/geo-optimization-techniques.md](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/geo-optimization-techniques.md) for the full checklist covering definitions, quotable content, authority, structure, and technical elements. ## Tips for Success Answer first, be specific, cite dated sources, stay current, match query format, and build authority. Full list in [references/instructions-detail.md](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/instructions-detail.md#tips-for-success). ### Save Results On user confirmation, save a dated summary to `memory/content/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>.md` and promote key conclusions to `memory/hot-cache.md`. ## Reference Materials - [Instructions Detail](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/instructions-detail.md) - Full 5-step workflow, CORE-EEAT GEO targets, self-check matrix, worked example, tips - [GEO Optimization Techniques](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/geo-optimization-techniques.md) - Detailed before/after examples, templates, and checklists for each technique - [AI Citation Patterns](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/ai-citation-patterns.md) - How Google AI Overviews, ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude select and cite sources - [Quotable Content Examples](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/build/geo-content-optimizer/references/quotable-content-examples.md) - Before/after examples of content optimized for AI citation ## Next Best Skill - **Primary**: [content-quality-auditor](https://github.com/aaron-he-zhu/seo-geo-claude-skills/blob/main/cross-cutting/content-quality-auditor/SKILL.md) — verify the optimized content is strong enough to ship and cite.
