Helps marketers optimize content and brand presence for AI-powered search engines, LLM citations, and answer engine visibility (AEO). Trigger when a user asks about ranking in ChatGPT, Perplexity, or Google AI Overviews; optimizing content for LLM citation; tracking brand mentions in AI search; or adapting SEO strategy for an AI-driven search landscape.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# AI Search Optimization (AEO / LLM Visibility)

## Overview
This skill covers how B2B marketers should adapt their content strategy, SEO practices, and brand presence to maximize visibility in AI-powered search tools including ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, and other LLM-based answer engines. It also addresses how traditional SEO investment should be evaluated and adjusted in light of AI search growth. All practices are sourced exclusively from Exit Five podcast guests; no external best practices have been added.

## Foundational Strategy: What AI Search Requires

### Prioritize "Frontier Knowledge" — Content LLMs Cannot Generate Themselves
Identify and create content around information that LLMs don't know, cannot yet answer, or don't have access to. This includes proprietary product data, internal expert insights, and unique research. Examples include surfacing credit card transaction data on product pages or adding rich internal documentation. This is what OpenAI and other AI search providers identify as the most important investment for marketers. (Source: Eoin Clancy, Episode #336)

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add the-nam-shub/e5-real-skills/ai-search-optimization@sha256:76ccd36fed173209

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2026-04-21, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
