Designed from First Principles

The GEO Guide

We curated hundreds of SEO and GEO best practices from official documentations and tutorials and distilled the knowledge into this set of skills for overgrow. Each individual primary source is summarized by gpt-5.4 into a few concise bullet points. We then use opus-4.7 to group and cluster all summarized bullet points into a condensed markdown format ready for skill usage at knowledge/geo.md.

Query Fan-out

Web searches on ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude all use query fan-out to discover releveant content pieces before answering the prompt. We curated a base set of searches covering both specific and broad search intents and capture hundreds of real query fan-out behavior. We distill the behavior into a set of rules for reverse engineering fan-out patterns in knowledge/query-fanout.md. Overgrow uses this knowledge to propose new landing, blog, and resources pages.

Installation

Claude Code (recommended)

/plugin marketplace add zhizdev/overgrow
/plugin install overgrow@overgrow

Commands appear as /overgrow:init, /overgrow:audit, etc. Update with /plugin update overgrow@overgrow, or enable auto-update in /plugin → Marketplaces.

Cursor

cp -r .cursor your-project/

Cursor skills require setup: switch to Nightly in Settings → Beta, then enable Agent Skills in Settings → Rules. Cursor skills docs

The drop-in includes .cursor/mcp.json wiring the Bonemeal MCP server (powers /grow). Cursor handles OAuth / dynamic client registration on first tool call.

Gemini CLI

cp -r .gemini your-project/

Gemini CLI requires the preview channel: npm i -g @google/gemini-cli@preview, then /settings → enable Skills, then /skills list. Gemini CLI skills docs

The drop-in includes .gemini/settings.json wiring the Bonemeal MCP server with oauth.enabled = true, so Gemini CLI runs the discovery + DCR + PKCE flow itself.

Codex CLI

cp -r .codex your-project/

Codex uses a different command prefix: $overgrow:init, $overgrow:audit, etc.

The drop-in includes .codex/config.toml, which Codex loads as a project-scoped override once the project is trusted (Codex prompts on first run). The mcp_servers.overgrow entry uses Codex's built-in OAuth login (scopes + oauth_resource), so on first $overgrow:grow call Codex opens a browser for consent — no bearer token to paste.

Supported tools

• Claude Code — primary, plugin-install
• Cursor — drop-in .cursor/
• Gemini CLI — drop-in .gemini/
• Codex CLI — drop-in .codex/

One source of truth in source/skills/. The build transforms it into each provider's expected layout, frontmatter shape, and placeholder conventions — authored once, shipped four ways.
