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 aklofas/kicad-happy, 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#1Reposition README H1 and first paragraph to clarify core purpose
Why:
CURRENT# ⚡ kicad-happy AI-powered design review for KiCad. Analyzes schematics, PCB layouts, and Gerbers. Catches real bugs before you order boards.
COPY-PASTE FIX# ⚡ kicad-happy: AI Agent Skills for KiCad Electronics Design Turn your AI coding agent (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, GitHub Copilot CLI, Gemini CLI) into a full-fledged electronics design assistant for KiCad projects. This repository provides the skills to analyze schematics, review PCB layouts, and catch real bugs before manufacturing.
- mediumtopics#2Refine topics to emphasize AI application in EDA
Why:
