1.Can an agent discover and trust you?

0/8

Whether agents can crawl you, find you in the registries and searches they check, and trust what they find.

  • Sitemap present & freshrequired0/4

    No valid sitemap found: robots.txt listed 0 Sitemap URL(s), and GET /sitemap.xml returned HTTP 404

    fix → Publish /sitemap.xml, reference it from robots.txt, and include <lastmod> dates so agents can tell what's current. Freshest lastmod seen: none.

    Resolved the sitemap from robots.txt or /sitemap.xml, validated XML, and checked lastmod freshness

    spec ↗
  • Brand search discoverabilityrequired0/4

    Neither search ("Rust", "Rust developer tools") cited rust-lang.org. Cited instead: https://rust-reportcard.xuri.me/, https://github.com/oxarbitrage/g-collector, https://github.com/MikeLuu99/searxng-rust, https://github.com/fuderis/rs-web-parser, https://github.com/lutfi238/search-scrape

    fix → Your domain doesn't surface when agents search "Rust". Strengthen brand pages, structured data, and third-party citations (docs portals, GitHub, directories).

    Ran clean brand-name web searches and checked whether your domain is cited in the results

  • MCP registry listingsrecommendedna

    No MCP server detected for this product

    Queried the official MCP registry, Smithery, Glama, and PulseMCP for servers matching your domain

    spec ↗

2.Do you welcome agents?

9/16

Whether your robots policy, bot protection, and agent guidance actively admit AI agents instead of blocking them.

  • robots.txt present & parseablerequired0/2

    GET /robots.txt returned HTTP 404

    fix → Serve a valid /robots.txt; without one, agent crawlers guess your policy.

    Fetched /robots.txt and validated it parses as a robots policy

    spec ↗
  • AI crawler policyrequired5/5

    No robots.txt (HTTP 404) — none of the 12 AI crawler user-agents are blocked. Note: without a robots.txt, crawlers guess your policy.

    Evaluated robots.txt groups for the major AI agent user-agents (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, …)

  • Content Signals directivesemerging0/2

    No robots.txt (HTTP 404), so no Content-Signal lines are declared

    fix → Declare Content Signals in robots.txt (e.g. `Content-Signal: search=yes, ai-train=no`) to express AI usage preferences machine-readably.

    Looked for Content-Signal lines in robots.txt

    spec ↗
  • Agent user-agent paritybetarequired4/4

    All three UAs get HTTP 200; bot bodies are ClaudeBot 100%, GPTBot 100% of the browser response (18594 bytes)

    Compared responses served to browser and AI-agent user-agents (informational while in beta)

  • agents.mdrecommended0/3

    No agents.md: https://rust-lang.org/agents.md → HTTP 404, https://rust-lang.org/AGENTS.md → HTTP 404

    fix → Add /agents.md: what agents may do on your site, key URLs, auth, rate limits, and who to contact.

    Fetched /agents.md and checked for substantive agent guidance

    spec ↗

3.Does an agent understand who you are and what you do?

4/18

Whether your pages carry machine-readable identity: structured data, llms.txt, clear copy an agent can quote.

  • Homepage states what you arerequired3/3

    Homepage clarity rated 5/5 — an agent can confidently say what this company does (model's one-sentence read: "Rust is a programming language designed to empower developers to build reliable and efficient software across various domains like command-line tools, WebAssembly, networking, and embedded systems.")

    An LLM read your homepage as an agent would and rated how confidently it could say what you do

  • OpenGraph / social metadatarecommended1/2

    Homepage has og:description, og:image but is missing og:title (twitter:card="summary" present)

    fix → Add og:title meta tags to your homepage; agents and link unfurlers use them as your canonical summary.

    Parsed homepage og:title / og:description / og:image and twitter:card meta tags

    spec ↗
  • llms.txtrecommended0/4

    GET /llms.txt returned HTTP 404

    fix → Add /llms.txt: an H1 with your name, a one-line blockquote summary, and H2 sections of curated links to docs, pricing, and API.

  • JSON-LD structured datarequired0/4

    No application/ld+json blocks found on homepage

    fix → Embed Organization + WebSite JSON-LD on your homepage (name, url, logo, sameAs) and Product/Offer JSON-LD on pricing.

    Extracted and validated application/ld+json blocks on the homepage and pricing page

    spec ↗
  • Markdown content negotiationrecommended0/3

    GET / with `Accept: text/markdown` returned HTTP 200 text/html; no .md twins found (2 probed)

    fix → Serve text/markdown when clients send `Accept: text/markdown` (or expose .md twins of key pages) — agents get far more signal per token.

    Requested key pages with Accept: text/markdown and probed .md twin URLs

4.Can an agent integrate with you?

watch →4/9

Whether the artifacts an agent needs to build on you — docs, API specs, SDKs, MCP servers — exist and are findable.

    Requires the analysis phase — not yet evaluated

    Checked your public GitHub org's main repos for AGENTS.md / .claude / .cursor configs

10.Can an agent operate your website directly?

7/9

Whether the site itself is legible to non-rendering and browser agents: semantic HTML, no JS walls, accessibility.
