## Components

### Content Discoverability

- **Score:** 0/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** 2 failed and 4 skipped across 6 AFDocs checks.
- **Rationale:** Agents need a clear entry point and crawl map before they can reliably discover the right pages.
- **Reference:** [AFDocs reference](https://afdocs.dev)

**Checks**

- ❌ **LLMS TXT Exists** — No llms.txt found at any candidate location (https://docs.api.nvidia.com/llms.txt, https://docs.api.nvidia.com/docs/llms.txt) Create an llms.txt file at your site root containing an H1 title, a blockquote summary, and markdown links to your key documentation pages. This is the single highest-impact improvement for agent access to your docs.
- ⏭️ **LLMS TXT Valid** — Skipped: dependency check did not pass
- ⏭️ **LLMS TXT Size** — Skipped: dependency check did not pass
- ⏭️ **LLMS TXT Links Resolve** — Skipped: dependency check did not pass
- ⏭️ **LLMS TXT Links Markdown** — Skipped: dependency check did not pass
- ❌ **LLMS TXT Directive** — No llms.txt directive found in any of 15 sampled pages No agent-facing directive pointing to llms.txt was detected on any tested page. Add a blockquote near the top of each page (e.g., "> For the complete documentation index, see [llms.txt](/llms.txt)"). This can be visually hidden with CSS while remaining accessible to agents.

**Evidence**

- **Score cap:** 59 (No llms.txt found. Agents lose primary navigation.)

### Markdown Availability

- **Score:** 59/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** 1 failed across 2 AFDocs checks.
- **Rationale:** When markdown is available directly, agents spend less effort stripping presentation markup and guessing structure.
- **Reference:** [AFDocs reference](https://afdocs.dev)

**Checks**

- ✅ **Markdown Url Support** — 14/15 sampled pages support .md URLs (93%)
- ❌ **Content Negotiation** — Server ignores Accept: text/markdown header (0/15 sampled pages return markdown) Your server ignores Accept: text/markdown and returns HTML. Some agents (Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode) request markdown this way. Configure your server to honor content negotiation.

### Page Size and Truncation Risk

- **Score:** 67/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** 2 failed across 4 AFDocs checks.
- **Rationale:** Large pages and delayed primary content increase truncation risk and make retrieval less reliable.
- **Reference:** [AFDocs reference](https://afdocs.dev)

**Checks**

- ✅ **Rendering Strategy** — All 15 sampled pages contain server-rendered content
- ❌ **Page Size Markdown** — 1 of 14 pages exceed 100K chars (max 311K) 1 of 14 markdown pages exceed 100K characters and will be truncated by agents. Break these into smaller pages or restructure serialized tabbed content.
- ❌ **Page Size Html** — 15 of 15 sampled pages convert to over 100K chars (max 1358K, 22% boilerplate) 15 of 15 pages convert to over 100K characters of markdown. Reduce inline CSS/JS, break large pages, or provide markdown versions as a smaller alternative.
- ✅ **Content Start Position** — Content starts within first 10% on all 15 sampled pages (median 5%)

### Content Structure

- **Score:** 100/100 · **Status:** pass
- **Summary:** 3 AFDocs checks pass.
- **Rationale:** Predictable sections, valid code fences, and serialized tabs make the content easier for agents to parse correctly.
- **Reference:** [AFDocs reference](https://afdocs.dev)

**Checks**

- ✅ **Tabbed Content Serialization** — 20 tab group(s) across 1 of 15 sampled pages; all serialize under 50K chars
- ✅ **Section Header Quality** — Tab groups have fewer than 2 panels; header quality check not applicable
- ✅ **Markdown Code Fence Validity** — All 30 code fences properly closed across 14 pages

### URL Stability and Redirects

- **Score:** 96/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** 1 failed across 2 AFDocs checks.
- **Rationale:** Stable URLs and sane redirect behavior prevent retrieval drift and broken tool references.
- **Reference:** [AFDocs reference](https://afdocs.dev)

**Checks**

- ❌ **Http Status Codes** — 1 of 15 sampled pages return 200 for non-existent URLs (soft 404) Your site returns 200 for non-existent pages (soft 404). Agents try to extract information from the error page content instead of recognizing the page is missing. Configure your server to return 404 for pages that don't exist.
- ✅ **Redirect Behavior** — No redirects detected across 15 sampled pages

### Observability and Content Health

- **Score:** 100/100 · **Status:** partial
- **Summary:** 1 warning and 1 skipped across 3 AFDocs checks.
- **Rationale:** Coverage, parity, and cache behavior determine whether agents can trust the content they retrieve.
- **Reference:** [AFDocs reference](https://afdocs.dev)

**Checks**

- ⏭️ **LLMS TXT Freshness** — Skipped: dependency check did not pass
- ⚠️ **Markdown Content Parity** — 2 of 14 pages have minor content differences between markdown and HTML 2 pages have minor content differences between their markdown and HTML versions. Review for formatting variations.
- ✅ **Cache Header Hygiene** — All 15 endpoints have appropriate cache headers

### Authentication and Access

- **Score:** 100/100 · **Status:** partial
- **Summary:** 1 skipped across 2 AFDocs checks.
- **Rationale:** Agents need either public access or a clear alternative path when documentation is gated behind auth.
- **Reference:** [AFDocs reference](https://afdocs.dev)

**Checks**

- ✅ **Auth Gate Detection** — All 15 sampled pages are publicly accessible
- ⏭️ **Auth Alternative Access** — All docs pages are publicly accessible; no alternative access paths needed

### Full Content Discoverability

- **Score:** 0/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** llms-full.txt has 1 failing check.
- **Rationale:** A full-document snapshot gives long-context agents a single canonical corpus to ingest without repeated crawling.
- **Reference:** [llms-full.txt guide](https://www.mintlify.com/docs/ai/llmstxt#llms-full-txt)

**Checks**

- ❌ **LLMS Full Exists** — No llms-full.txt file was discovered.
- ⏭️ **LLMS Full Size** — Skipped because llms-full.txt was not found.
- ⏭️ **LLMS Full Valid** — Skipped because llms-full.txt was not found.
- ⏭️ **LLMS Full Links Resolve** — Skipped because llms-full.txt was not found.

### Agent Skills

- **Score:** 0/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** skill.md has 1 failing check.
- **Rationale:** Agent skills provide product-specific operating guidance that plain documentation pages do not encode on their own.
- **Reference:** [skill.md guide](https://www.mintlify.com/docs/ai/skillmd)

**Checks**

- ❌ **Skill MD** — No agent skill definition was discovered.

### MCP Server

- **Score:** 0/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** MCP has 1 failing check.
- **Rationale:** A discoverable MCP server lets agents use first-class tools instead of scraping pages and inferring behavior.
- **Reference:** [MCP guide](https://www.mintlify.com/docs/ai/model-context-protocol)

**Checks**

- ❌ **MCP Server Discoverable** — No MCP server was discovered at the expected endpoints.
- ⏭️ **MCP Tool Count** — Skipped because the MCP server was not discoverable.
