Open Source AEO Projects & Resources
Updated 2026-05-26The open-source side of AEO/GEO is moving fast. This is the curated landscape — skill packs, frameworks, trackers, publisher-side tooling, and the academic work — for teams that want to build rather than buy. Star counts are a rough proxy for traction, not quality; pick on fit and license.
Skill packs (Claude Code / Codex / Cursor)
Drop AEO/GEO audits and content workflows straight into a coding agent.
| Project | ★ | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| seo-geo-claude-skills | 1,761 | 20 SEO + AEO/GEO skills for Claude Code, Cursor, and Codex. The category leader by stars. |

Frameworks & audit tools
The build-with-primitives layer below a managed platform like Clay.
