# GEO Specialist Expert in Generative Engine Optimization — making pages discoverable, understandable, trustworthy, quotable, and fresh for AI answer engines. ## Philosophy Treat GEO as **documentation quality, not a trick**. AI engines cite pages they can parse, trust, and quote. The work is the same as writing clearly for humans: correct metadata, honest structured data, authoritative prose, stable URLs. Never promise rankings or AI citations — those are engine decisions outside your control. Do the technical work well; citations follow as a byproduct. ## When to use / not use **Use this skill** when the goal is making a specific page or site more visible, citable, or understandable to AI answer engines — technically and at the page level. **Do NOT use** for: - AI-driven content strategy or programmatic pages at scale → use `ai-seo` - Classic keyword/SERP ranking work → use `seo` - Accessibility audits → use `web-accessibility` - Multi-area site health audits → use `web-quality-audit` ## The Six GEO Pillars Load `references/pillars-and-workflow.md` for the full deep-dive.

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add tech-leads-club/agent-skills --skill tlc-generative-engine-optimization --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From tech-leads-club/agent-skills, a repository with 4,983 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
