AIScan score: 42/100 — Level 2 (Readable)
Rubric: v2026-06-08.1

## Failing checks (sorted by weight)
- **[C1] Markdown content negotiation** — FAIL
  - Evidence: Accept: text/markdown → 200 (text/html; charset=utf-8)
  - Fix: Serve text/markdown when the client sends Accept: text/markdown, or expose /path/index.md.
- **[C2] /llms.txt** — FAIL
  - Evidence: HTTP 404
  - Fix: Publish /llms.txt per llmstxt.org with an H1, summary, and ## sections of markdown links.
- **[B2] Explicit AI bot rules** — FAIL
  - Evidence: 0 known AI agent(s) addressed in robots.txt
  - Fix: Add explicit allow/deny rules for GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, etc.
- **[C3] Structured HTML (title, meta, JSON-LD, single H1)** — PARTIAL
  - Evidence: h1: 1, title: true, meta description: true, JSON-LD: false
  - Fix: Ensure a single <h1>, <title>, meta description, and schema.org JSON-LD.
- **[P1] API Catalog (RFC 9727)** — FAIL
  - Evidence: 404 at /.well-known/api-catalog
  - Fix: Publish /.well-known/api-catalog linking to your OpenAPI descriptions.
- **[D3] Link header for discovery** — PARTIAL
  - Evidence: Link: </_next/static/chunks/0.nrh~p3d_the.css?dpl=dpl_7HJgHnaQF92JdtgGp4xfXqv7Xh5b>; rel=preload; as="style", </_next/static/chunks/0oxaf--cl7esr.css?dpl=dpl_7HJgHnaQF92JdtgGp4xfXqv7Xh5b>; rel=preload; as="
  - Fix: Add a Link header with rel="api-catalog" or rel="describedby".

## General guidance
- Static-first: `robots.txt`, `llms.txt`, `/.well-known/*` JSON cards.
- Markdown negotiation: serve `text/markdown` when requested via `Accept` header or `?format=md`.
- Bot access: explicit allow/deny per AI user-agent (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Applebot-Extended, Bytespider, Amazonbot, CCBot, meta-externalagent, cohere-ai, Diffbot).
- Capabilities: publish an MCP server card and (optionally) an Agent Skills manifest even if the runtime isn't live — discovery first.
- Re-scan at aiscan.site after deploying.

Discoverability

Can agents find your pages? robots, sitemaps, llms.txt.

Content

Can agents read your content cleanly? Markdown, structured data.

Your site is missing this right now, so AI agents can't use it. The fix below is what to change.

What we found
Accept: text/markdown → 200 (text/html; charset=utf-8)
How to fix it
Serve text/markdown when the client sends Accept: text/markdown, or expose /path/index.md.
1.⚡ Fix automatically with AIScan
The fastest way to apply this fix is using AIScan's own agent tooling — it gives any AI coding assistant machine-readable instructions for this exact check. **Option A — Claude Code skill** 1. Download `CLAUDE.md` from https://aiscan.site/CLAUDE.md and drop it into your project root. 2. Ask Claude Code: *"Fix the failing AIScan check for <your-url>"* — it will read the skill, call our API, and apply the fix. **Option B — MCP (any MCP-compatible agent: Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)** - Endpoint: `https://aiscan.site/api/mcp` - Tools: `scan_website`, `get_fixes`, `get_grade` - Call `get_fixes` with your URL for machine-readable fix instructions. **Option C — REST API (any tool / script)** ``` GET https://aiscan.site/api/public/scan?url=YOUR_URL ``` Returns the full report including failing checks and fix details. Then re-scan at https://aiscan.site to verify.
2.Serve text/markdown on Accept negotiation
When a client sends `Accept: text/markdown`, return a markdown rendering of the same content. The simplest path is to publish parallel `.md` files (e.g. `/about` → `/about.md`) and rewrite based on the Accept header.
3.Test it
curl -H "Accept: text/markdown" https://yoursite.com/
4.Verify
After deploying, re-scan at https://aiscan.site. You can also test with `curl -I` or `curl` directly.

Then re-scan at https://aiscan.site to verify.
2.Create /llms.txt at the site root
Follows the llmstxt.org spec: a single H1, optional blockquote summary, then `##` sections of markdown links.
3.Template
# Example Co > One-line summary of what this site / product does. A short paragraph explaining the audience, what's here, and how to navigate it. ## Docs - [Getting started](/docs/quickstart): install, first call in 5 min - [API reference](/docs/api): all endpoints, params, examples ## Pages - [Pricing](/pricing): plans and limits - [Changelog](/changelog): recent releases ## Optional - [Brand assets](/press): logos and screenshots
4.Verify
After deploying, re-scan at https://aiscan.site. You can also test with `curl -I` or `curl` directly.

Then re-scan at https://aiscan.site to verify.
2.Add explicit User-agent blocks
Don't rely on `User-agent: *` alone. Address each major AI crawler so your policy is unambiguous.
3.Recommended block
User-agent: GPTBot Allow: / User-agent: ClaudeBot Allow: / User-agent: PerplexityBot Allow: / User-agent: Google-Extended Allow: / User-agent: Applebot-Extended Allow: /
4.Verify
After deploying, re-scan at https://aiscan.site. You can also test with `curl -I` or `curl` directly.
