Wider segments are worth more points. The overall adds up every check's points, so it isn't the average of the three parts. 1 check doesn't count here: see why.
Easy to find, fairly easy to read, easy to use.

Fix 1: Your llms.txt has broken links, or it's too long for an agent to read
Do this: Make every link in your llms.txt return 200: fix or drop the broken ones. Keep the file under 50,000 characters; if it's longer, make it a short index that links to an llms.txt for each section.
llms.txt links work, and it fits: every link in your llms.txt works, and the file is short enough for an agent to read whole.
×FailWhat we read on SendGrid (1)
- GEThttps://twilio.com/llms.txtHTTP 200over 2 MB, 8039 links; too long for an agent to read whole, so we didn't open the links (redirected to https://www.twilio.com/llms.txt); read the first 2 MB; the file is larger

- GEThttps://mailtrap.io/llms.txtHTTP 2007,068 characters, 45 links; 12 of 12 we tried resolve
Why it might matter
An agent trusts the links in your llms.txt; a broken one sends it to a dead end, and a file past its context gets cut off.
Our call · Worth doing.
A broken link in your llms.txt sends an agent to a dead end it trusted.
Our judgement.
How we test this
- We read the llms.txt AR-READ-07 passes on (the first with markdown links) and fetch up to 12 of its links, spread through the file, two at a time.
- A link is broken when it answers 404 or 410, or its host doesn't exist.
- A 2xx after redirects resolves, and so does an answer like 400, 405 or 406 that shows the address is there (an MCP endpoint answers a plain GET with 405).
- A refusal, a 429 or a server error isn't judged.
- The credit is the share that resolve, halved when the file runs to 50,000 characters or more, and nothing past 100,000: AFDocs' size bands.
- With no llms.txt it isn't counted: AR-READ-07 counts that.
1 more fails, with no example yet: Tools for browser agents
Nobody on the board passes our check yet
No email API on our board passes our check on these yet, so there's no example to show.
We didn't find tools for browser agents in your homepage's HTML or inline scripts
Tools for browser agents: tools your web page offers to AI agents that work in a browser (a proposed standard).
It costs a point, but it's only worth building if agents need to operate forms on your site. If they do, a browser agent may find no tools to call and have to click through instead.
Don't do it for the score. It's still a proposed standard, and almost nobody on our boards passes our check, though Bird, Postmark and CrewAI load it from a script our check doesn't read. Build it only if agents need to operate forms on your site. Our judgement.

3Every checkPart 3 of 4
What these checks can't tell you
- Whether an agent can sign up and get a key. One registry found 30 of 100 developer tools blocked it.
- Whether coding agents write current code for your API. In our small test, a 96 and a 71 came out the same: what we found.
- Whether your bot protection lets an agent in when a person sends one. Check your CDN settings.
- Whether ChatGPT recommends you. That depends on far more than these files.
- What another scanner would give you. They ask different questions and weigh them differently: why the numbers differ.

- One blocked page is a fail; both caps your score at 39.

How we test this:
- We read your docs page and up to 7 more docs pages (the ones we read for other checks, then links on your docs page).
- A page fails when it answers 401 or 403 to a normal browser too, redirects to a sign-in page, or is a sign-in form with little else on it.
- A redirect counts as a sign-in when it adds one: a sign-in path the page didn't have, a login subdomain, or an identity provider's site such as Okta's when the page was on another site.
- A sign-up page, one whose title or main heading says sign up or create an account, isn't a login.
- A refusal only to automated readers is our scanner being blocked, not a login.
- A login on your docs page caps your score at 39; across the pages, a share of 25% or less caps it at 39, 50% or less at 59.

- We read llms.txt at your site root and, if your docs live on another host, at your docs root, and check one returns 200, isn't HTML and has at least one markdown link.
- Off the board, we also try your docs. host and /docs/llms.txt.
- We read the first 2 MB: a larger file is judged on that part, and the result says "read the first 2 MB; the file is larger".

Your llms.txt has broken links, or it's too long for an agent to read. An agent trusts the links in your llms.txt; a broken one sends it to a dead end, and a file past its context gets cut off.

How we test this:
- We read the llms.txt AR-READ-07 passes on (the first with markdown links) and fetch up to 12 of its links, spread through the file, two at a time.
- A link is broken when it answers 404 or 410, or its host doesn't exist.
- A 2xx after redirects resolves, and so does an answer like 400, 405 or 406 that shows the address is there (an MCP endpoint answers a plain GET with 405).
- A refusal, a 429 or a server error isn't judged.
- The credit is the share that resolve, halved when the file runs to 50,000 characters or more, and nothing past 100,000: AFDocs' size bands.
- With no llms.txt it isn't counted: AR-READ-07 counts that.

- Passes when AR-ACT-03 passes (your docs surface names your own MCP server, not just a mention or a blog post about one; on the board, only an MCP server with a tool that acts on the product: send, manage or query, not only search docs, since AgentReady calls this "the interface an agent acts through"), or when your docs surface shows a CLI install: brew install, npm i -g, npm install -g, pipx install, uv tool install, go install, az extension add, or curl ... | sh (or | bash).
- A mention of MCP that isn't your own server, with no CLI install, isn't counted.
- For board companies, the CLI half counts only a command of the product's own CLI that we confirmed by hand, like az communication email send or twilio email:send, on the pages we read or on the docs page that shows it: an install alone could be any tool (an MCP setup guide installing pnpm, say).
- For a product inside a larger platform, the platform's MCP server or CLI counts when its docs show it covers the product.
- An MCP server earns both this check and AR-ACT-03, because AgentReady lists them as two items.

- A stand-in: AgentReady asks for self-serve key generation with documented scopes, or OAuth metadata, and key sign-up can't be tested in code.
- It passes if OAuth metadata parses as JSON with the field its RFC requires (issuer for RFC 8414, resource for RFC 9728), or if your docs say "API key" or "API token" (also inside a placeholder like YOUR_API_KEY) within 200 characters of a documented auth header: an X-...-Key or X-...-Token header, a header named ...-Key or ...-Token, Authorization with Bearer, or "Bearer API key".
- The word "token" on its own doesn't count.
- For board companies we also read the authentication page their docs link.
- Off the board, OAuth metadata with its resource field on your mcp., api. or docs. host also counts.
- A board company whose API signs each request (like AWS Signature Version 4) or takes the key in the request body isn't counted: this stand-in can't judge that kind of auth either way.

- Any other mention of "MCP server" or "Model Context Protocol", like a directory or an explainer, isn't counted: it can't fail you and it earns no points, because we can't tell the server is yours.
- A mention in a link to a blog post, or on an llms.txt line that links to one, doesn't count at all: a post about building a server isn't one you ship.
- For board companies we read the MCP page their docs link and list the tools it documents: a server that only searches your docs counts here, as AgentReady describes an MCP server as a "standard tool protocol for docs search and actions".
- We don't probe /mcp or call any server.
- Off the board, OAuth metadata with its resource field on your mcp. host also counts: it's the server's own file.

- With no OAuth metadata, it isn't counted.

TypeScript/JavaScript: npm install --save @sendgrid/mail Python: pip install sendgrid Go: go get github.com/sendgrid/sendgrid-go Java: implementation 'com.sendgrid:sendgrid-javaHow we test this:
- On your docs surface we look for an install in each of four languages: TypeScript/JavaScript (npm, yarn, pnpm or bun), Python (pip, poetry or uv), Go (go get) and Java (a Maven <artifactId> or a Gradle implementation line).
- All four must appear.
- This shows how to install, not that a package is official.
- If none of the pages we read is a quickstart or SDK page, a miss isn't counted: it can't fail you or withhold your score.
- Ours, not AgentReady's.

How we test this:
- In the OpenAPI spec AR-ACT-02 found, we look for a POST operation on a path containing mail, email, message or send.
- No spec counts as a fail.
- Ours, not AgentReady's.

- On the pricing page AR-READ-11 reads, we look for "free" within 300 characters of a number followed by emails, messages or sends and a period (a month, a day, or 30 days), like "3,000 emails/month" or "4,000 sends in any rolling 30-day window", in the raw text (no JavaScript run).
- A one-time allowance with no period doesn't count.

Pick your fixes
Usually the founder or DevRel lead
3 fixes take SendGrid from 92 to 99, joint 1st of 15 email APIs, past Brevo, Postmark, Loops, Bird (ex-SparkPost) and 1 more.

Hand them off
To whoever ships it
Fix with AI writes each fix for whoever ships it: your coding agent, an engineer, product or marketing. Open it in Cursor, as a GitHub issue or in Linear, or copy it. Nothing runs until you send it.
Rescan once it's live
Usually the engineer, after the deploy
A rescan reads SendGrid again and shows what now passes, the new score and who you passed.
Last scan: 92 on 9 Nov, joint 6th of 15 email APIs.
Weekly, for 4 weeks. A calendar file: no email from us.Bookmark this page: it opens on our 9 Nov 2026 scan, with a live scan one press away.Stay ahead of your category
DevRel, the founder
Rivals ship too. Watch SendGrid with Postmark and Brevo, the nearest on the board: home keeps all three, and Rescan all there shows who moved.

Add it for your coding agent
Adds a skill to your project. Ask your agent to use it, and it scans your live site, reads the real file behind each gap and helps write your own. It only publishes if you ask.
npx legible-cli skill
If Windows PowerShell blocks npx, type npx.cmd instead.
Get warned if this slips
A GitHub Action that runs in your own repo, once a week. It fails, naming the check, if something this site passes today stops passing. Each alert links back to the result. Add a Slack webhook as a repo secret named SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL, and a change also posts to your channel; nothing else is sent to us. Anything we can't be sure of only warns. GitHub notifies whoever created the job, depending on their settings. In a public repo, it turns scheduled jobs off after 60 days with no activity.
