AI agents cannot discover or access Mercury's banking service because the site lacks standard agent discovery files, documentation, and serves different content to non-browser clients.

Discovery 9.7/22.2

  • Documentation linked from the homepagedetailsFAIL

    no link to documentation found in the homepage HTML

    Fix: Link your docs from the homepage with visible anchor text ("Docs", "Documentation", "Developers"). An agent that cannot find your docs from your homepage will guess your API.

  • robots.txt existsdetailsFAIL

    robots.txt not served (HTTP 429)

    Fix: Serve a /robots.txt. Without it, agent crawlers have to guess what they may fetch.

  • sitemap.xml exists and parsesdetailsFAIL

    sitemap.xml not served (HTTP 429)

    Fix: Publish /sitemap.xml listing your public pages, and reference it from robots.txt with a `Sitemap:` line.

  • Homepage has a descriptive titledetailsWARN

    title is 98 characters (truncated in most surfaces)

    Fix: Trim the <title> to 70 characters or fewer so it is not cut off.

  • API reference linked from the homepagedetailsPASS

    2 API link(s), e.g. /api

  • Canonical URL declareddetailsPASS

    https://mercury.com

  • Homepage has a meta descriptiondetailsPASS

    121 characters

  • Open Graph tags presentdetailsPASS

    og:title and og:description present

  • Brand findable in agent searchdetailsN/A

    search-based checks are deferred — excluded from the score

  • Listed in an MCP registrydetailsN/A

    registry lookup not implemented in v1 — excluded from the score rather than guessed

  • robots.txt allows agent crawlersdetailsN/A

    no robots.txt to evaluate — nothing is blocked by rules that don't exist

  • robots.txt points at the sitemapdetailsN/A

    no robots.txt

Accessibility 15/33.3

  • Homepage responds to an agent requestdetailsFAIL

    HTTP 429 for an agent User-Agent

    Fix: Return 200 for agent requests to the homepage. A non-2xx here means nothing downstream can be evaluated.

  • llms.txt is publisheddetailsFAIL

    /llms.txt not served (HTTP 429)

    Fix: Publish /llms.txt: a plain-markdown index that tells an agent what this product is and where the authoritative docs live. It is the cheapest high-leverage file you can add.

  • Same response for agents and browsersdetailsFAIL

    browser got HTTP 200, agent User-Agent got HTTP 429

    Fix: Your CDN or WAF is blocking non-browser clients. Allow well-identified bots, or at least return a 200 with readable content instead of a challenge page.

  • llms-full.txt is publisheddetailsWARN

    /llms-full.txt not served

    Fix: Optional but cheap: publish /llms-full.txt with your docs inlined as one markdown file, so an agent can read everything in a single fetch.

  • Serves markdown when asked for itdetailsWARN

    Accept: text/markdown → text/html; charset=utf-8

    Fix: Optional but increasingly expected: honour `Accept: text/markdown` by serving a markdown rendering of the page, so agents skip HTML parsing entirely.

  • Content-to-markup ratio is reasonabledetailsWARN

    ratio 0.0097 — 8223 readable chars in 846834 bytes of HTML

    Fix: Most of what you serve is markup and inline script rather than content. Reduce inline payloads or server-render more text so the signal-to-noise ratio favours readers.

  • Served over HTTPSdetailsPASS

    https://mercury.com/

  • Structured data (JSON-LD) on the homepagedetailsPASS

    1 valid block(s)

  • Homepage has readable text without JavaScriptdetailsPASS

    8223 characters of text in the served HTML

  • No long redirect chain on the homepagedetailsPASS

    0 redirect(s)

  • Docs are readable without JavaScriptdetailsN/A

    /docs not served (HTTP 429) — docs may live on another path or host

  • Links in llms.txt resolvedetailsN/A

    no llms.txt

  • llms.txt is structured markdowndetailsN/A

    no llms.txt to parse

Usability 22.2/44.4

  • agents.md is publisheddetailsWARN

    /agents.md not served (HTTP 429)

    Fix: Publish /agents.md: what an agent may do here, which endpoints matter, auth requirements, and rate limits. It is the agent-facing counterpart to a README.

  • A documentation endpoint respondsdetailsWARN

    /docs → HTTP 429

    Fix: Serve docs at the conventional /docs path, or redirect it to wherever they live. Agents try conventional paths first.

  • Errors are machine-readabledetailsWARN

    a nonexistent path returned HTTP 429, not 404

    Fix: Return 404 for paths that do not exist. A 200 on a missing page makes an agent believe it found something.

  • OpenAPI document publisheddetailsWARN

    /openapi.json not served (HTTP 429)

    Fix: If you have an HTTP API, publish its OpenAPI document at a predictable path (/openapi.json). It is the difference between an agent reading your contract and an agent guessing it. If you have no HTTP API, ignore this.

  • .well-known/mcp.json advertises an MCP serverdetailsWARN

    /.well-known/mcp.json not served (HTTP 429)

    Fix: If you run an MCP server, advertise it at /.well-known/mcp.json so agents discover it without being told its URL.

  • The /api root behaves predictablydetailsN/A

    /api → HTTP 429 (no API at the conventional root)

  • MCP server completes the initialize handshakedetailsN/A

    no MCP endpoint found to probe (none in the input URL and none advertised at /.well-known/mcp.json)

  • MCP tool parameters are typed and describeddetailsN/A

    no listed MCP tools to inspect

  • Every MCP tool has a descriptiondetailsN/A

    no listed MCP tools to inspect

  • MCP server lists toolsdetailsN/A

    no MCP endpoint to probe

  • OpenAPI declares its auth schemedetailsN/A

    no parseable OpenAPI document

  • OpenAPI operations are describeddetailsN/A

    no parseable OpenAPI document

  • OpenAPI documents error responsesdetailsN/A

    no parseable OpenAPI document

  • OpenAPI document is structurally validdetailsN/A

    no parseable OpenAPI document
