HOW TO READ THIS REPORT

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 joshuavial/aider.nvim, 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.

# Aider Plugin for Neovim

This is a simple plugin for Neovim that allows you to open a terminal window inside Neovim and run Aider. I wrote it as an experiment in using Aider which is by far the best AI coding assistant I've seen, and now just a few keystrokes away in vim.
