"Activate when: user says 'win the featured snippet', 'get the voice assistant to read our answer', 'AEO', 'answer engine optimization', 'structure our FAQ', asks 'how do we get our answer shown directly?', or needs to restructure content so a single passage can be lifted as the one direct answer to a question.
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
# Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) ## Overview Answer engines — featured snippets, "People Also Ask" boxes, voice assistants, AI answer panels — lift **one passage** and present it as the answer. The page whose passage answers the question first, shortest and most accurately is the one that gets lifted. A correct answer buried in paragraph six of a long article loses to a mediocre answer sitting directly under the question. Core mechanism: **map real questions → put an answer-first passage directly under each question → add a definition block and structured data that match the visible page**, so a machine can extract the answer without reading the whole page. Keep three goals distinct: SEO gets a page into the results list; AEO gets one passage selected as the direct answer; generative-engine optimization gets the brand mentioned and cited by generative AI. They share inputs but are measured differently. …

How to install
mdr add deciqai/knowledge-skills/aeo-answer-engine-optimization@sha256:663f88f77f72589dThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.cb4e537, 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.
