Top fixes

  1. Machine-readable surfaces (+2 points): Publish /llms.txt (a short Markdown guide to your key pages); /sitemap.xml; one agent surface: /openapi.json, /.well-known/agent-card.json, or /.well-known/x402 if you sell to agents. How to fix
  2. MCP census entry (+2 points): Expose a Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint at /mcp (or a paid x402 route) so agents can call you, not just read you. How to fix

Ordered by points recoverable. Each area: 2/2 pass, 1/2 warn, 0/2 fail.

nginx.com is graded C. The $49 AI Visibility Full Report turns the failing check above (machine-readable surfaces) into a prioritized, specific fix list for nginx.com, and tests 8 real buyer questions across ChatGPT-class models to show what AI answers say about you today.

Get the full report — $49 Stripe checkout asks for your brand name and category; the report is ready about 60 seconds after payment. Legal notices and the MCP census entry are not in this report (free: Compliance Desk check, census claim).

Crawler access (robots.txt)

2/2 · pass

Robots.txt is an HTML page (treated as absent): every crawler is allowed by default

  • GET /robots.txt -> HTTP 200 after 2 redirect(s), HTML body
  • Unmentioned (allowed by default): GPTBot, ClaudeBot, OAI-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, Amazonbot, CCBot, Bytespider

Fix: Optional: publish a robots.txt that names the AI crawlers you allow and points to your sitemap; without one your policy is implicit.

Machine-readable surfaces

0/2 · fail

None of the 7 machine-readable surfaces is published

  • /llms.txt: HTTP 200 but an HTML page (catch-all route, not a real file)
  • /sitemap.xml: HTTP 200 but an HTML page (catch-all route, not a real file)
  • /.well-known/x402: HTTP 200 but an HTML page (catch-all route, not a real file)
  • /.well-known/agent-card.json: HTTP 200 but an HTML page (catch-all route, not a real file)

  • /openapi.json: HTTP 200 but an HTML page (catch-all route, not a real file)
  • /ai.txt: HTTP 200 but an HTML page (catch-all route, not a real file)

Fix: Publish /llms.txt (a short Markdown guide to your key pages); /sitemap.xml; one agent surface: /openapi.json, /.well-known/agent-card.json, or /.well-known/x402 if you sell to agents.

Readable without JavaScript

2/2 · pass

Home page is readable

  • GET https://nginx.com/ -> HTTP 200 after 2 redirects (final: https://www.f5.com/products/nginx), text/html, 393 KB
  • 7,289 characters of visible text with scripts, styles and tags removed; <title>: "NGINX | F5"
  • 33 external scripts, 70 inline; <noscript> absent
  • first words: "AI infrastructure AI security Web application and API protection Post-quantum cryptography Zero trust architecture Network security Applicat..."

2/2 · pass

1 JSON-LD block, Open Graph complete

  • 1 JSON-LD block: @type WebPage, Product, BreadcrumbList, ListItem
  • Open Graph: og:title "F5 NGINX: Built for cloud-native apps. Ready for AI traffic."; og:description present
  • meta description: present

Fix: Nothing to fix here.

MCP census entry (index.agentexchange.work)

0/2 · fail

Not selling to agents: no census entry, no /mcp endpoint

  • census unavailable (refused index.agentexchange.work: hosts on agentexchange.work cannot be graded from inside the same Cloudflare zone; every check would time )
  • GET /mcp -> HTTP 200 HTML page (catch-all route, not an MCP endpoint)

Fix: Expose a Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint at /mcp (or a paid x402 route) so agents can call you, not just read you.
