I tested my website for “AI agent readiness” and scored 86/100

I recently tested my agency website using Cloudflare’s “Is Your Site Agent-Ready?” checker. No affiliation with the tool. I was curious about what “agent-ready” actually means. My site scored 21/100 and reached Level 1: Basic Web Presence . It passed three checks: Valid robots.txt Working sitemap Rules for AI crawlers It failed several newer checks: Markdown content negotiation Content Signals HTTP Link headers Agent Skills discovery MCP Server Card WebMCP API and authentication discovery The interesting part is that this is not another SEO score. It checks whether AI agents can discover, understand, and interact with a website through machine-readable standards. For example, an agent could request a clean Markdown version of a page instead of processing the complete HTML. Applications can also publish structured information explaining their APIs, available tools, authentication process, and supported actions. Some checks seem practical today, particularly Markdown responses, crawler rules, and structured discovery. Others, such as agentic payment protocols and DNS-based agent discovery, still feel early for a normal business website. I am planning to implement Content Signals and Markdown negotiation first, then test whether Agent Skills would provide any real value. Has anyone implemented these standards on a production website? Did they improve anything beyond the scanner score? submitted by /u/kelisshekhaliya [link] [留言]
