Swap “media library” for “assets”
“media library” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “assets” sits at #5 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

What we found
Readme fails 5 of 8 AI readiness checks
Needs workAI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: says what it does, has a faq, faq asks real questions, names who it is for and names what it works with. Short description names no action; say what the plugin does for the site.
What to do: Rewrite the readme so each failed check passes: say the job in the first line, answer real questions in the FAQ, name who it is for and what it works with, and use headings and lists. For the same check on your plugin's own website, run the free AI visibility scan from AgentVania.

OpportunityOnly 11 ratings. A handful of reviews makes your star average fragile and weakens trust at install time.
What to do: Run a structured in-plugin review prompt and a review campaign.
Healthy but under-discovered
OpportunityThis plugin scores 81/100 on health yet sits at 4,000 installs. The product is good; distribution is the gap.
What to do: A WP Mayor review and placement can put it in front of the right audience.
Small download base. 850 downloads in 30 days, so a +21% move is a few installs rather than a trend.
Light support activity. Few recent support threads, so there is no backlog to report.
No open vulnerabilities recorded. No unpatched security advisory is recorded against this plugin.
