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.

pass/llms.txt guide for AI agentsAgent manifests

Found https://mailchimp.com/llms.txt.

pass/llms.txt lists key pages as markdown linksAgent manifests

Found at least one "[name](url)" markdown link.

pass/llms.txt has a summary blockquoteAgent manifests

Found a "> summary" blockquote.

pass/llms.txt opens with an H1 titleAgent manifests

First line is a top-level "# Title" heading.

passKey pages discoveredKey pages crawl

Crawled 12 of 12 discovered pages beyond the homepage.

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.

warnDOM size is reasonableStructured data & HTML

Homepage contains ~2912 elements — heavy.

Fix: Aim for under 1500 elements on the homepage. Heavier DOMs slow first paint and overflow some AI crawlers' parse buffers.

warnImages have explicit dimensionsStructured data & HTML

135/141 images have explicit width+height.

Fix: Add width and height to every <img>. Without them the browser doesn't know the aspect ratio and reflows the page on load (CLS).

warnSingle H1 on homepageStructured data & HTML

Found 6 <h1> tags. Most AI summarisers expect exactly one.

Fix: Demote the secondary H1s to H2 — keep H1 reserved for the page title.

passHomepage content is server-renderedCrawlability (Google)

Homepage server response contains 3570 words of visible text — content is reachable without executing JavaScript.

passCookie banner does not block crawlersStructured data & HTML

Detected 1 cookie-banner element but none look agent-hostile (small, dismissible, or offer a reject option).

passHeading hierarchy is intactStructured data & HTML

87 headings, no level skips.

pass<html lang> attributeStructured data & HTML

Language declared as "en".

passImages have alt textStructured data & HTML

141 of 141 <img> tags have alt attributes.

passInternal links on homepageStructured data & HTML

297 internal links found.

passSemantic landmark elementsStructured data & HTML

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

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.

passAccessibility tree is agent-navigableAccessibility

All 10 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.

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

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

`[aria-hidden="true"]` elements do not contain focusable descendents passed.

`[role]`s have all required `[aria-*]` attributes passed.

`[role]` values are valid passed.

pass`[aria-*]` attributes are valid and not misspelledAccessibility

`[aria-*]` attributes are valid and not misspelled passed.

Buttons have an accessible name passed.

passDocument has a `<title>` elementAccessibility

Document has a `<title>` element passed.

passLinks have a discernible nameAccessibility

Links have a discernible name passed.

passOverall accessibility scoreAccessibility

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

passForm fields have labelsStructured data & HTML

35 of 35 visible interactive form fields have labels.

passCumulative Layout ShiftPerformance

0.000 (field data from CrUX) — good.

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.

warnMIME-sniff protectionSecurity & trust

No `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff` header.

Fix: Add `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff` to prevent browsers (and some agents) from re-interpreting your responses as a different content type.

passCDN detectedSecurity & trust
