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 cBioPortal/cbioportal, 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 paragraph to emphasize 'platform' and 'precision medicine'
Why:
CURRENTThe cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics provides visualization, analysis, and download of large-scale cancer genomics data sets.
COPY-PASTE FIXThe cBioPortal for Cancer Genomics is an open-source platform for visualizing, analyzing, and exploring large-scale cancer genomics and precision medicine data sets. It enables researchers and clinicians to manage, integrate, and interactively query multi-omics data.
- mediumabout#2Expand the 'About' description to include 'platform' and 'precision medicine'
Why:
CURRENTcBioPortal for Cancer Genomics
COPY-PASTE FIXAn open-source platform for visualizing, analyzing, and exploring large-scale cancer genomics and precision medicine data.
- lowtopics#3Add more specific topics related to data platform and multi-omics management
Why:
CURRENTcancer-genomics, precision-medicine, science, visualization
COPY-PASTE FIXcancer-genomics, precision-medicine, science, visualization, genomic-data-platform, cancer-research-platform, multi-omics-data
