Readme fails 4 of 8 AI readiness checks

Needs work

AI assistants recommend what they can quote. Failing: names who it is for, names what it works with, headings and lists and enough to quote. Never says who the plugin is for or what they use it for.

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.
