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 kaplanelad/shellfirm, 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 the README's opening paragraph to clarify its unique 'interception + challenge' mechanism and target audience (humans AND AI agents).
Why:
CURRENTHumans make mistakes. AI agents make them faster. shellfirm intercepts dangerous shell commands before the damage is done.
COPY-PASTE FIXHumans make mistakes. AI agents make them faster. Unlike simple aliases or system-level sandboxes, shellfirm intercepts dangerous shell commands *before* they execute, presenting an interactive challenge to confirm intent and prevent damage.
- hightopics#2Add more specific topics related to AI agent safety and LLM security.
Why:
CURRENTagent, ai, captcha, devops, devops-tools, mcp, prompt, rust, shell, terminal, zsh
COPY-PASTE FIXagent, ai, ai-safety, llm, llm-security, ai-agent, captcha, devops, devops-tools, mcp, prompt, rust, shell, terminal, zsh
- mediumreadme#3Add a 'Why not X?' or 'How is this different?' section to the README, comparing `shellfirm` to common, simpler alternatives.
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIX## Why shellfirm? While simple aliases or tools like `safe-rm` can prevent some mistakes, `shellfirm` offers a comprehensive, context-aware solution. It goes beyond basic command blocking by actively intercepting a wide range of dangerous patterns across 9 ecosystems, escalating challenges based on context (e.g., SSH, root, protected branches), and suggesting safer alternatives. This provides a robust layer of protection that static aliases or simple wrappers cannot match, especially for complex scenarios and AI agent interactions.
