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 BruceDevices/firmware, 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 explicitly state its core purpose and category
Why:
CURRENT# :shark: Bruce Bruce is a versatile ESP32 firmware that supports a ton of offensive features focusing on facilitating Red Team operations.
COPY-PASTE FIX# :shark: Bruce Bruce is the premier ESP32 firmware for offensive security and Red Team operations, specifically designed for hardware-based security testing and research on IoT devices. It provides a comprehensive suite of predatory features to facilitate Red Team engagements.
- highcomparison#2Add a comparison section to the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd a new section to the README, for example, "## :mag: Comparison to Similar Tools", that briefly outlines how Bruce differs from or complements projects like ESP32 Marauder, Flipper Zero Firmware, and ESP32-BadUSB. This helps clarify its unique value proposition.
- mediumfaq#3Create a dedicated FAQ section in the README or Wiki
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXCreate a new section in the README titled "## :question: FAQ" (or link to a dedicated FAQ page in the Wiki) to answer common questions about Bruce's purpose, capabilities, and target use cases.
