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 tailscale-dev/ScaleTail, 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.

Why:
COPY-PASTE FIX## Why ScaleTail? Unlike traditional reverse proxies (e.g., Nginx, Caddy, Traefik) that primarily manage public-facing traffic and require separate certificate management, ScaleTail leverages your existing Tailscale network to provide secure, private access to your self-hosted Docker applications with automatic HTTPS. It simplifies exposing services within your Tailnet without needing public DNS records or complex firewall rules, focusing on zero-trust access for your internal applications.
