CFair

AI agents can access the site, but missing discovery files force them to rely on external search for critical product and policy information.

The one fix worth most right nowGet the fix files →

Publish llms.txt+675 → 81

All of them together: 93 (A)

Projected from the audit record. After fixing, re-run the task or re-measure to confirm.

Agents successfully load the homepage and can natively resolve shipping and signup intents. However, the absence of standard discovery files like /llms.txt and /sitemap.xml severely limits their ability to navigate the site autonomously. Consequently, agents resort to external search engines for half of the tested tasks, leading to partial or failed outcomes for queries like stock availability and latest products. Without direct pathways, the site loses control over the information agents retrieve and present to users.

What works

The homepage is accessible to bots without blocking.
Shipping and signup intents are successfully resolved using the site's native structure.
Agents successfully cite the site's own URLs for 80% of the tested intents.

What to fix

For each item: its current state, why it matters, how to fix it and how to check. The same content comes as files you can hand straight to whoever does the work.
