avalonreset GitHub DataForSEO -- Live Search & AI Visibility Data (Extension)
Live search data via the DataForSEO MCP server. Provides real keyword volume, SERP analysis, and AI visibility tracking for GitHub optimization decisions.
Important: DataForSEO measures Google web search volume and AI mentions -- NOT GitHub's internal search or Explore algorithm. Use this data to optimize how your repo ranks in Google results and whether AI systems cite it.
