Top fixes

  1. MCP handshake & tools list

    MCP endpoint https://docs.weaviate.io/weaviate/configuration/mcp-server failed handshake: HTTP 404. Support streamable HTTP with protocol version negotiation; if auth-gated, return RFC 9728 metadata in WWW-Authenticate.

    +3.7
  2. Markdown content negotiation

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

    +3.5
  3. OAuth authorization server metadata

    Serve RFC 8414 metadata at /.well-known/oauth-authorization-server with PKCE (S256) and a registration_endpoint so agents can self-onboard.

    +2.8
  4. Sitemap present & fresh

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

    +2.5
  5. MCP server discovery

    Publish /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json describing your MCP endpoint so agents can autodiscover it. Evidence found: llms.txt.

    +2.3
  6. Auth documentation

    Document auth end-to-end (key creation → header format → example call), or ship /auth.md.

    +1.9

13/18

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: "Weaviate is an open-source vector database that provides a unified platform for designing, building, and shipping complete AI experiences, including vector search, RAG, and memory capabilities, primarily targeting developers and AI teams.")
