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 lucidrains/toolformer-pytorch, 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 to clarify its role as a research implementation
Why:
CURRENT## Toolformer - Pytorch (wip) Implementation of <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.04761">Toolformer</a>, Language Models That Can Use Tools, by MetaAI
COPY-PASTE FIX## Toolformer - PyTorch: A Research Implementation of Language Models That Can Use Tools (MetaAI) This repository provides a PyTorch implementation of the <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.04761">Toolformer architecture</a>, enabling language models to learn and utilize external tools. Unlike general LLM orchestration frameworks, this project focuses on the *core architectural principles* of Toolformer as described by MetaAI.
- mediumtopics#2Add more specific topics related to LLM tool use and research
Why:
CURRENTapi-calling, artificial-intelligence, attention-mechanisms, deep-learning, transformers
COPY-PASTE FIXapi-calling, artificial-intelligence, attention-mechanisms, deep-learning, transformers, llm-agents, tool-use, meta-ai-research
