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 MadcowD/ell, 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 statement to clarify purpose and avoid miscategorization
Why:
CURRENT`ell` is a lightweight, functional prompt engineering framework built on a few core principles:
COPY-PASTE FIXMadcowD/ell's `ell` is a lightweight Python library and functional framework for *language model programming* and *prompt engineering*. It is designed for building and iterating on LLM applications, not for general-purpose programming or hardware management.
- hightopics#2Expand repository topics to include more specific LLM-related terms
Why:
CURRENTai, prompt-engineering
COPY-PASTE FIXai, prompt-engineering, llm, python, generative-ai, language-models, framework
- mediumreadme#3Add a 'What `ell` solves' section to explicitly address key use cases
Why:
COPY-PASTE FIX## What `ell` solves The `ell` library helps developers: * Manage and iterate on LLM prompts programmatically. * Build structured and reusable prompt engineering components for AI applications. * Version and serialize prompts automatically for robust development workflows.
