I've heard CTOs saying they don't consider buying any product that is not AI agent friendly. Which means they must come with AI skills, MCP Servers and so on that agents can use it to do stuff. You may not like it, but that's almost certainly going to be the future.
Behind an agent is a human that might use the product. I think customers/consumers will demand that their personal/subscription agent can access the product.
As someone that works for a company that gets a 100% score on ax-check, all the effort I've put into making it accessible for agents has not 10xed the growth numbers like I was told it would.
The initial step of the scan looks at homepage content to try to figure out where to navigate next, it's getting confused by all the different products linked. Will fix this!
How do you think about enabling fully agentic onboarding without proper human identification? It feels like any rate limiting would be pretty easy to get around.
Each product is different (how much does it cost to serve a marginal user, how risky is it). But generally I think allowing ephemeral accounts like Cloudflare, or serving simulated/static accounts before a human claim can both work.
For a lot of products it can just be an extension of the free tier I think too.
Nice! This should help in making my stuff as inaccessible as possible to agents.
Are you mainly concerned about scraping? or anti-agents in general?
what is the benefit of making any resource more available to agents?

I've been seeing these pop up recently, I think I saw Mintlify launched one too. Why the sudden increase in attention towards coding agents?
Welcome to HN...
Claude, use AX-check to make my site score a zero. Make no mistakes
Going to try this out for our MCP
