## Components

### Content Discoverability

- **Score:** 58/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** 2 failed and 1 warning 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** — llms.txt found at 1 location(s)
- ✅ **LLMS TXT Valid** — llms.txt follows the proposed structure (H1, blockquote, heading-delimited link sections)
- ✅ **LLMS TXT Size** — llms.txt is 8,022 characters (under 50,000 threshold)
- ❌ **LLMS TXT Links Resolve** — Only 7/15 same-origin sampled links resolve (47%); 8 broken 8 of 30 links in your llms.txt return errors. A stale llms.txt with broken links is worse than no llms.txt at all because it sends agents down dead ends with high confidence.
- ⚠️ **LLMS TXT Links Markdown** — Same-origin links point to HTML, but 7 have .md variants available (17 external links excluded) Some links in your llms.txt point to HTML pages instead of markdown. Where possible, update links to use .md URLs so agents get clean markdown content directly.
- ❌ **LLMS TXT Directive** — No llms.txt directive found in any of 5 sampled pages; 10 failed to fetch 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.

### Markdown Availability

- **Score:** 17/100 · **Status:** fail
- **Summary:** 1 failed and 1 warning 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** — 4/15 sampled pages support .md URLs (27%); inconsistent support 0 of 15 pages support .md URLs inconsistently. Ensure all documentation pages serve markdown when .md is appended to the URL.
- ❌ **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:** 81/100 · **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** — All 4 pages under 50K chars (median 8K, max 9K)
- ❌ **Page Size Html** — 2 of 15 sampled pages convert to over 100K chars (max 197K, 23% boilerplate) 2 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** — 10 of 15 sampled pages have content starting past 50% (worst 100%) 10 of 15 pages have content starting past 50% of the converted output. Agents may never see the documentation content. Move or remove inline CSS/JS that precedes the content area.

### Content Structure

- **Score:** 100/100 · **Status:** partial
- **Summary:** 1 skipped across 3 AFDocs checks.
- **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** — 1 tab group(s) across 1 of 15 sampled pages; all serialize under 50K chars
- ⏭️ **Section Header Quality** — 1 page(s) with tabs found, but no section headers inside tab panels to evaluate
- ✅ **Markdown Code Fence Validity** — All 12 code fences properly closed across 5 pages

### URL Stability and Redirects

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

**Checks**

- ✅ **Http Status Codes** — All 15 sampled pages return proper error codes for bad URLs
- ✅ **Redirect Behavior** — All 1 redirect(s) across 15 sampled pages are same-host HTTP redirects

### 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** — No sitemap found; cannot assess llms.txt freshness without a sitemap as ground truth
- ⚠️ **Markdown Content Parity** — 3 of 4 pages have minor content differences between markdown and HTML 3 pages have minor content differences between their markdown and HTML versions. Review for formatting variations.
- ✅ **Cache Header Hygiene** — All 16 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.
