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 flexpilot-ai/vscode-extension, 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#1Rewrite README to clearly state deprecation and redirect to successor
Why:
CURRENTThe current README starts with a warning about deprecation, then describes the extension's features.
COPY-PASTE FIX# Flexpilot VS Code Extension - Deprecated > [!WARNING] > The **Flexpilot VS Code extension** is no longer actively maintained. We will still try to address any issues or pull requests, but will not be adding new features. For the latest features, active development, and an enhanced AI-powered development experience, please migrate to our successor project: **Flexpilot IDE**. 🚀 **Flexpilot IDE** is a fork of VS Code with the Flexpilot extension pre-installed, offering powerful new features such as multi-file editing, an online web IDE, and more. * **Experience Flexpilot IDE instantly Online:** [Click here to experience it instantly Online.] * **Download the latest Flexpilot Desktop IDE:** [Click here to download the latest version of Flexpilot Desktop IDE for the best experience.] This repository remains available for historical reference and existing users, but new development and support are focused on Flexpilot IDE.
- mediumreadme#2Highlight the core Flexpilot differentiator in the redirect message
Why:
CURRENTThe redirect message doesn't explicitly state the core differentiator of the Flexpilot ecosystem.

Experience this and more in Flexpilot IDE."
- lowtopics#3Add more specific AI coding assistant topics
Why:
