IsItAgentReady is a free web scanner that audits any URL for AI agent readiness across 36 checkpoints organized in five categories: robots.txt compliance (covering all 13 major AI crawler bots), structured data (17 Schema.org types), llms.txt implementation, MCP endpoint detection, and OAuth/agentic commerce readiness. Each category gets a letter grade with specific, actionable fix instructions. The tool was built by a two-person team responding to a growing pain point: as AI agents replace search engine crawlers as the primary way content is discovered and consumed, most websites are not configured to be agent-accessible. A site might have perfect SEO but actively block Claude, GPT, or Perplexity crawlers in its robots.txt — effectively invisible to the AI-driven web. IsItAgentReady surfaces these gaps in about 15 seconds. It also ships as an MCP server, making it usable directly from Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, or any MCP-compatible environment: run a scan from the terminal and get structured results without leaving your editor. The project is positioned as "Google PageSpeed Insights for the agentic web" — a framing that resonated on Hacker News where it appeared as a Show HN with strong engagement.
Reviewer scorecard
“API collections in git, no account required, and offline-first. This is how API clients should work.”
“The MCP server integration is the killer feature — I ran it directly from Claude Code on three client sites and had actionable fixes within a minute. The robots.txt check alone is worth the trip: most sites are blocking AI crawlers without realizing it.”
“One-time purchase vs subscription is refreshing. Git-native collections mean your API tests are version-controlled.”
“The 36 checkpoints sound comprehensive but several are aspirational standards that haven't been widely adopted yet — like MCP endpoint detection and agentic commerce. You risk over-engineering your site for agent features that most users will never use in 2026.”
“Offline-first, git-native tools represent a pushback against SaaS subscriptions. Bruno leads this movement in API tools.”
“This is the 2026 equivalent of Google's mobile-friendly test from 2015. Sites that fail that test eventually lost traffic — sites that fail agent-readiness checks will lose AI-driven discovery. IsItAgentReady is the early warning system before that penalty is enforced.”
“The graded report with step-by-step fix workflows is genuinely well-designed — it's the kind of output you can hand directly to a developer or a client without translation. Clean, actionable, and free.”
