AI Search Visibility Audit

Checks whether AI search tools can find, understand and cite your content, then returns a prioritized action plan with exact rewrites and schema.

Used by our marketing team

What It Does

Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) is the work of making content easy for AI search tools to select and cite. Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) is structuring content so it answers a question directly. This skill audits your pages for both.

It reads your content and checks heading structure, answer blocks, authority signals and schema. It finds the queries where other sources are cited instead of you. It returns a ranked list of changes, each with its expected citation impact and effort.

You bring a URL, page text or a topic, and the questions your audience asks. You get a report with exact heading rewrites, answer blocks and schema code.

Who Uses It

Our marketing team, when a page or topic needs to show up in AI answers as well as in classic search results. It is used before a content refresh and when a page ranks well but is never cited.

Setup

1. Copy the skill/ folder into your agent's skills folder and name it geo-specialist. For Claude Code that is .claude/skills/geo-specialist/ in a project, or ~/.claude/skills/geo-specialist/ for all projects. Other agents use their own skills folder.
2. Alternatively, fetch it through the Thinqmesh MCP server and let your agent install it.
3. Start a new session and ask, for example, for an AI search audit of a page you paste in.

No scripts or accounts are needed. If the agent can search the web, it uses that to see how your queries are answered today. If not, it gives you a short list of queries to run by hand on each AI platform and asks you to report what you see. It never invents results.

Example Result

1. The pricing explainer answers its main question in paragraph four.

Action items
| # | Action                      | Citation impact | Effort |
|---|-----------------------------|-----------------|--------|
| 1 | Add answer block under H1   | High            | Low    |
| 2 | Add FAQ schema to 3 pages   | Medium          | Low    |
| 3 | Add author and updated date | Medium          | Low    |

Queries to check by hand
"how does example invoicing software handle tax"
Record which sources are cited and in what order.

How to Adapt

Change the platforms in the report template to the ones your audience uses. Add your own schema types if your site uses others. If you already have a house style for reports, paste it and the agent will follow it. Tighten the rules section if you only want recommendations and never drafted text.
