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 mark3labs/mcp-go, 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.
- hightopics#1Add relevant topics for categorization
Why:
CURRENT(none)
COPY-PASTE FIXllm, large-language-models, ai, generative-ai, protocol, go, golang, external-tools, data-integration, function-calling, agent-frameworks
- highreadme#2Add a clear, explicit definition of 'Model Context Protocol (MCP)' to the README's opening
Why:
CURRENT<strong>A Go implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP), enabling seamless integration between LLM applications and external data sources and tools.</strong>
COPY-PASTE FIX# mcp-go: Go Implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard for enabling Large Language Models (LLMs) to seamlessly integrate with external data sources and custom tools, facilitating advanced function calling and contextual understanding.
- mediumreadme#3Add a 'Why mcp-go?' or 'How is this different?' section to the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIX## Why mcp-go? Unlike generic LLM API wrappers or full-fledged agent frameworks, mcp-go provides a robust, Go-native implementation of the Model Context Protocol. This protocol-first approach ensures standardized, seamless integration between your LLM applications and any external data source or custom tool, focusing on reliable function calling and context management.
