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.

warnKey pages discoveredKey pages crawl

Discovered 12 candidate pages but none were reachable.

Fix: Make sure the pages linked from your sitemap and navigation return HTTP 200 to non-browser clients — agents fetch them the same way our crawler does.

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 ~1753 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 alt textStructured data & HTML

49 of 55 images have alt attributes (89%).

Fix: Add alt text to the remaining images. Empty alt="" is fine for purely-decorative graphics.

warnImages have explicit dimensionsStructured data & HTML

46/55 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 2 <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 964 words of visible text — content is reachable without executing JavaScript.

passHeading hierarchy is intactStructured data & HTML

9 headings, no level skips.

pass<html lang> attributeStructured data & HTML

Language declared as "en-US".

passInternal links on homepageStructured data & HTML

58 internal links found.

passSemantic landmark elementsStructured data & HTML

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

Operability

Can agents actually operate the page?

failCumulative Layout ShiftPerformance

0.320 (field data from CrUX) — poor.

Fix: A layout that shifts while loading makes an AI agent mis-click the element it targeted. Eliminate CLS by setting explicit width/height on images and embeds, avoiding inserted content above existing content, and reserving space for ad slots.

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

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

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

passDocument has a `<title>` elementAccessibility

Document has a `<title>` element passed.

pass`<frame>` or `<iframe>` elements have a titleAccessibility

`<frame>` or `<iframe>` elements have a title passed.

passOverall accessibility scoreAccessibility

Lighthouse accessibility score: 94/100. 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

1 of 1 visible interactive form fields have labels.

passTime to First BytePerformance

661ms (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?

failHTTP Strict-Transport-Security headerSecurity & trust

No Strict-Transport-Security header on the homepage.

Fix: Add `Strict-Transport-Security: max-age=15768000; includeSubDomains` so browsers and agents refuse to downgrade to http for at least six months.

failNo mixed-content referencesSecurity & trust

Found 1 http:// reference in the homepage HTML — browsers will block these resources.

Fix: Update every http:// resource URL to https:// (or use protocol-relative `//`). Common offenders: image CDNs and legacy embed snippets.

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.

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

x-amz-cf-id: MX7jWNmAEaFYz-T4gTjG7e_I9U-Cr6dbm_6fT9fe (AWS CloudFront)

passContent-Security-Policy headerSecurity & trust

No stack-trace markers in the first 5KB.

passTLS certificate is not near expirySecurity & trust

Valid for 88 more days (Oct 17 23:59:59 2026 GMT, issuer: Amazon RSA 2048 M04).

passNo tech-stack disclosure in headersSecurity & trust

Server / X-Powered-By headers don't leak product version.

passClick-jacking protectionSecurity & trust

CSP frame-ancestors directive present.
