Discoverability

Can agents find your site and its capabilities?

failWebMCP / agent-protocol tools discoveredAgent manifests

The page registers no tools via the WebMCP browser API (navigator.modelContext).

Fix: Expose your actions to AI agents with the WebMCP browser API: register tools via navigator.modelContext.registerTool. Optionally also publish a /.well-known/webmcp.json tool catalog as a discovery signpost.

passKey pages discoveredKey pages crawl

Crawled 12 of 12 discovered pages beyond the homepage.

infoLighthouse Agentic Browsing runLighthouse Agentic

Lighthouse Agentic Browsing audits ran.

infoWebsite platformplatform

Could not identify a known website platform (custom stack or unrecognised).

Understanding

Can agents understand your content?

warnMarkdown content negotiationOpen agent protocols

Homepage ignored Accept: text/markdown and returned HTML.

Fix: Serve a markdown version of high-value pages when the client asks for text/markdown. AI summarisers, chatbots and IDE agents prefer markdown — fewer tokens, no DOM noise.

warnImages have explicit dimensionsStructured data & HTML

Only 6/8 images have width+height — large CLS risk.

Fix: Set width and height on every <img> so the browser reserves space before the image loads. A layout that shifts while loading makes an AI agent mis-click the element it targeted.

warnSemantic landmark elementsStructured data & HTML

Missing landmark elements: header, nav.

passHomepage content is server-renderedCrawlability (Google)

Homepage server response contains 143 words of visible text — content is reachable without executing JavaScript.

passDOM size is reasonableStructured data & HTML

Homepage contains ~265 elements.

passHeading hierarchy is intactStructured data & HTML

1 headings, no level skips.

pass<html lang> attributeStructured data & HTML

Language declared as "en".

passImages have alt textStructured data & HTML

8 of 8 <img> tags have alt attributes.

passInternal links on homepageStructured data & HTML

34 internal links found.

passSingle H1 on homepageStructured data & HTML

Exactly one <h1> on the homepage.

passKey pages have <title> and <h1>Key pages crawl

All 12 reachable key pages have both a <title> and <h1>.

passKey pages are server-renderedKey pages crawl

All 12 pages return ≥80 words of visible text without JavaScript.

Operability

Can agents actually operate the page?

failElements with an ARIA `[role]` that require children to contain a specific `[role]` are missing some or all of those required children.Accessibility

Lighthouse flagged this audit — agents may be unable to perceive or operate the affected elements.

Fix: Ensure ARIA roles that need specific children contain them (e.g. list → listitem).

fail`[role]`s are not contained by their required parent elementAccessibility

Lighthouse flagged this audit — agents may be unable to perceive or operate the affected elements.

Fix: Ensure ARIA child roles are nested inside their required parent role.

failAccessibility tree is not well-formedLighthouse Agentic

A well-formed [accessibility tree](http://goo.gle/lighthouse-agentic-a11y) helps AI agents to navigate and interact with the page.

failCumulative Layout ShiftLighthouse Agentic

0.293

failWebMCP tools registered with the browserWebMCP tools

The page registers no tools via the navigator.modelContext browser API, so an AI agent has no structured way to operate it.

Fix: Expose your site’s actions to AI agents with the WebMCP browser API: call navigator.modelContext.registerTool({ name, description, inputSchema, execute }) from your page so an agent can invoke them. Implement it directly, or with a library like the @mcp-b polyfill (https://mcp-b.ai). Spec: https://github.com/webmachinelearning/webmcp.

warnAccessibility tree is agent-navigableAccessibility

2 of 11 agent-critical accessibility audits failed (Elements with an ARIA `[role]` that require children to contain a specific `[role]` are missing some or all of those required children., `[role]`s are not contained by their required parent element) — an agent may be unable to identify or operate the affected elements.

Fix: Fix the failing agent-accessibility audits listed below (accessible names on controls, valid ARIA roles/relationships, nothing interactive hidden from the tree).

warnOverall accessibility scoreAccessibility

Lighthouse accessibility score: 85/100. Agents read the page through its accessibility tree, so this is a proxy for how navigable your site is to an AI agent.

Fix: Resolve the failing accessibility audits below — each one removes an element or relationship an agent would otherwise be blind to.

pass`[aria-*]` attributes match their rolesAccessibility

`[aria-*]` attributes match their roles passed.

`[aria-hidden="true"]` is not present on the document `<body>` passed.

infoWebMCP tools registeredLighthouse Agentic

Lists the [WebMCP tools](http://goo.gle/webmcp-docs) registered at the time of analysis.

infoTool catalog signpost publishedWebMCP tools

No tool catalog was found at /.well-known/webmcp.json (or /.well-known/webmcp). The catalog is a community convention, not part of the WebMCP standard, so this does not affect WebMCP presence.

Fix: Consider also publishing a tool catalog at /.well-known/webmcp.json: a JSON document with a "spec" of "webmcp/0.1" and a "tools" array, where each tool declares a name and a clear description. It is a community convention (optional, not part of the WebMCP standard) that lets crawlers and agents discover your tools without executing JavaScript.

Trust & Security

Can agents safely transact?

warnOAuth authorization server metadataOpen agent protocols

/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server returned the site's HTML app shell — treating as not published.

Fix: Publish /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server so AI agents discovering your OAuth setup can negotiate flows automatically. Required if your site offers an authenticated API.

warnOAuth protected-resource metadataOpen agent protocols

/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource returned the site's HTML app shell — treating as not published.

Fix: Publish /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource so AI agents discovering your OAuth setup can negotiate flows automatically. Required if your site offers an authenticated API.

warnWeb Bot Auth signature headerOpen agent protocols

No Web Bot Auth signature headers — sites can't verify agent identity.

Fix: Web Bot Auth (IETF HTTP Message Signatures over Signature / Signature-Input) lets you cryptographically verify which agent is hitting you. Several CDNs offer turn-key support; otherwise skip until vendor support matures.

warnReferrer-Policy headerSecurity & trust

No Referrer-Policy header on the homepage.

Fix: Add `Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin` so outbound links don't leak full URLs (including query strings) to third parties.
