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.

warnHeading hierarchy is intactStructured data & HTML

Detected 1 heading level skip (e.g. h2 → h4).

Fix: Tighten the heading order so each level only steps down by one. Skipped levels confuse both screen-readers and AI structural extractors.

passHomepage content is server-renderedCrawlability (Google)

Homepage server response contains 1265 words of visible text — content is reachable without executing JavaScript.

passDOM size is reasonableStructured data & HTML

Homepage contains ~1467 elements.

pass<html lang> attributeStructured data & HTML

Language declared as "en".

passImages have alt textStructured data & HTML

61 of 61 <img> tags have alt attributes.

passImages have explicit dimensionsStructured data & HTML

61/61 images set width and height — no layout shift.

passInternal links on homepageStructured data & HTML

125 internal links found.

passSemantic landmark elementsStructured data & HTML

All four landmark elements present (main, header, footer, nav).

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?

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.

warnForms use autocomplete attributesStructured data & HTML

No autocomplete attributes on any data-collecting form field.

Fix: Add autocomplete hints (email, tel, name, etc.) so form-filling agents and browsers can populate fields without guessing.

warnForm errors are accessibleStructured data & HTML

0/1 data-collecting forms expose errors via ARIA attributes.

Fix: Wire inputs to their error containers with `aria-describedby` and toggle `aria-invalid` on validation failure. Agents that can't see styled error text rely on these attributes.

warnForms mark required fieldsStructured data & HTML

0/1 data-collecting forms mark required fields.

Fix: Add the `required` attribute (or `aria-required="true"`) to mandatory inputs. Form-filling agents skip optional fields by default — without markers they over-fill.

warnForm fields publish validation hintsStructured data & HTML

No HTML5 validation hints (pattern / minlength / maxlength / min / max) on any data-collecting form input.

Fix: Publish input constraints via HTML attributes so agents and browsers can validate client-side.

warnTime to First BytePerformance

1.29s (field data from CrUX) — needs improvement.

Fix: Every request an AI agent makes pays this server latency, and agents make many requests per task. Reduce TTFB with edge caching, a CDN, and shipping less server-side work per request.

passAccessibility tree is agent-navigableAccessibility

All 13 agent-critical accessibility audits passed — an agent can perceive and operate the page through its accessibility tree.

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

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

passOverall accessibility scoreAccessibility

Lighthouse accessibility score: 96/100. Agents read the page through its accessibility tree, so this is a proxy for how navigable your site is to an AI agent.

1 of 1 visible interactive form fields have labels.

infoWebMCP form coverageLighthouse Agentic

1 form missing annotations

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 404.

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 404.

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.

warnContent-Security-Policy headerSecurity & trust

No Content-Security-Policy header on the homepage.

Fix: Add a Content-Security-Policy. Even a strict default-src directive cuts XSS blast radius dramatically. Start in report-only mode to find violations.

warnHTTP Strict-Transport-Security headerSecurity & trust

HSTS max-age=15552000 is below six months.

Fix: Raise max-age to at least 15768000 (six months). The HSTS preload list requires 31536000 (one year).

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.
