Top fixes

Checks tagged “emerging” are 2026 agent-protocol standards most of the web hasn’t adopted yet — adopting early is an edge, not a defect.

warnSitemap presentDiscoverability

sitemap.xml reachable but not referenced from robots.txt, so agents may miss it.

Fix · Shopify: Publish /sitemap.xml and reference it from robots.txt with a Sitemap: line.

failLink response headersDiscoverability

No HTTP Link: response headers. Emit canonical/alternate/describedby relations so HEAD-only or stream-rendering agents get them without parsing HTML.

Fix: Emit `Link:` headers for canonical, alternate-language, and describedby relations. Agents that fetch HEAD-only or stream-render rely on these.

failText-to-markup ratioReadability

Visible text is 1.9% of HTML weight (7996/421856 bytes). Low. Markup may be crowding out agent-usable text.

Fix: Heavy ad or navigation markup crowds out agent-usable text. Aim for a text-to-DOM ratio above 15%.

failSchema type coverageStructured data

Page looks like Product; missing JSON-LD type(s): Product.

Fix: Align JSON-LD type to page purpose. Product pages without Product markup are skipped by agent shopping flows.

failContent-Signal directivesemergingDiscoverability

No Content-Signal directives. Add e.g. `Content-Signal: ai-train=no, ai-summarize=yes` to declare granular AI usage policy beyond binary allow/disallow.

Fix: Add `Content-Signal:` directives to your robots.txt. This is the emerging standard (Cloudflare-driven) for declaring fine-grained AI usage policy beyond a binary allow/disallow.

failMCP server cardemergingDiscoverability

No valid MCP Server Card at /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json. Publish one so agents can discover your tools without HTML scraping.

Fix: Publish an MCP Server Card describing the tools your site exposes. Agents discover capabilities via `/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json`. See modelcontextprotocol.io for the schema.

Track this score

Get this report by email, then a heads-up when shopify.com’s agent-readiness actually changes — a check regressing, or the composite dropping.

Two things never trigger an email: a score change caused by us publishing a new rubric, because that is a different instrument rather than a change to your site, and movement explained only by timing-derived checks, which shift run to run on a site nobody touched.

Want it on your own schedule, with Slack or a webhook instead of email? Score-drift monitoring is on every paid plan.
