Classic SEO asks whether you rank. AI answer engines do not rank - they retrieve a few sources and synthesize one answer, so a site can sit at the top of page one and still never be quoted. This plugin audits the second thing. It runs a citation baseline across buyer-intent prompts, checks whether the AI crawlers that control citations can actually reach your pages, reviews whether your content is written in a form that survives retrieval, and returns a fix list ranked by impact over effort. It also ships a fast robots.txt check for the crawlers that matter, because the single most common cause of total absence from AI answers is an accidental block - and the agent most teams block is not the one that controls citations. A single run is a snapshot; the skill also explains what it takes to turn one audit into a repeatable measurement you can re-run month over month.
