Action plan is what to do next — copy-pasteable changes prioritized by impact. Category visibility is the real GEO test: when a user asks an AI a brand-free question that should surface PaperDebugger/paperdebugger, does the AI actually recommend you — or your competitors? Objective checks verify the metadata signals AI engines weight first. Self-mention check detects whether AI even knows you exist by name.
Action plan — copy-paste fixes
3 prioritized changes generated by gemini-2.5-flash. Mark items done after you ship the fix.
- highreadme#1Clarify 'debugger' in the README's opening sentence to avoid miscategorization as a code debugger
Why:
CURRENTPaperDebugger is an AI-powered academic writing assistant that helps researchers debug and improve their research papers with intelligent suggestions and seamless Overleaf integration, without leaving the editor.
COPY-PASTE FIXPaperDebugger is an AI-powered academic writing assistant that helps researchers **debug and refine their research papers** (not code) with intelligent suggestions and seamless Overleaf integration, without leaving the editor.
- mediumreadme#2Emphasize 'multi-agent system' and 'multi-step reasoning' more explicitly in the README
Why:
CURRENTIt is powered by our [custom MCP-based orchestration engine](demo/xtramcp/readme.md) that simulates the full academic workflow **Research → Critique → Revision**. This enables multi-step reasoning, reviewer-style critique, and structured revision passes beyond standard chat-based assistance.
COPY-PASTE FIXIt is powered by our [custom MCP-based orchestration engine](demo/xtramcp/readme.md), a **plugin-based multi-agent system**, that simulates the full academic workflow **Research → Critique → Revision**. This enables **advanced multi-step reasoning**, reviewer-style critique, and structured revision passes beyond standard chat-based assistance.
- lowcomparison#3Add a 'Comparison to Alternatives' section to the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIX## Comparison to Alternatives Unlike general writing assistants (e.g., Paperpal, Trinka AI, Grammarly) or research discovery tools (e.g., Elicit, Scite.ai), PaperDebugger focuses specifically on **in-editor, multi-agent driven critique and revision of academic papers**, integrating directly with Overleaf. It is not a code debugger for LLMs, but rather an intelligent assistant for the academic writing workflow.
