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 openxlings/xlings, 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.

- highreadme#2Clarify the project's core identity in the README's opening
Why:
CURRENT<em>Universal package infrastructure with OS-like SubOS isolation.<br/>Multi-version · Rootless · Decentralized Index · Agent-ready.</em>

- mediumreadme#3Add introductory context to the "vs. other tools" section
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd the following sentence directly before the existing comparison table in the "vs. other tools" section: "Beyond common package managers and containerization, `xlings` also offers distinct advantages over tools like Podman, Distrobox, Conda, and Poetry, particularly in its unique approach to isolation and multi-version management."
