Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) skill — optimize content to be cited by AI language models (ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, Mistral) as authoritative sources. Distinct from SEO — AEO optimizes for citation in LLM-generated responses, not search rankings. Use when planning content for AI-first search audiences, auditing existing content for E-E-A-T signals, tracking which pages get cited by which LLMs, or building a citation-friendly content strategy. Triggers — 'AEO audit', 'optimize for ChatGPT', 'get cited by Perplexity', 'LLM citation strategy', 'answer engine optimization', 'content for AI search', 'E-E-A-T audit'. Output is a markdown audit report (default) or JSON for pipeline integration. Stdlib-only Python tools.

# Answer Engine Optimization (AEO)
**Get your content cited by ChatGPT, Perplexity, Claude, Gemini, and Mistral as the authoritative source.**
AEO is the practice of optimizing content for **citation** in LLM-generated responses — distinct from SEO, which optimizes for search rankings. This skill audits, optimizes, and tracks AEO performance.
## Distinct From SEO
| | SEO | AEO |
|---|---|---|
| **Optimizes for** | Click-through rankings | Being cited as authoritative source |
| **Audience** | Humans browsing search results | LLMs answering questions |
| **Success metric** | Position 1-10, organic traffic | Citation count across LLMs |
| **Key signals** | Backlinks, keywords, page speed | E-E-A-T, structured data, factual density |
