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 huggingface/alignment-handbook, 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#1Clarify the first descriptive sentence after the H1
Why:
CURRENTRobust recipes to continue pretraining and to align language models with human and AI preferences.
COPY-PASTE FIXThe Alignment Handbook provides robust, practical recipes and runnable code to continue pretraining and align language models with human and AI preferences.
- mediumtopics#2Add more specific topics to improve categorization
Why:
CURRENTllm, rlhf, transformers
COPY-PASTE FIXllm, rlhf, transformers, fine-tuning, dpo, alignment, guide, tutorial
- mediumreadme#3Add a clear differentiator statement to the README
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIXAdd this sentence at the beginning of the 'What is this?' section: 'Unlike academic papers or generic libraries, this handbook provides a comprehensive, code-centric guide with runnable examples for implementing state-of-the-art LLM alignment techniques.'
