Agent door only. The human door could not be measured on this scan. A Door Gap needs both doors, so this scan does not report one.
## What the machine actually did
The scanner recorded successful observations for 4 of 14 checks, but could not ask whether the door opens for requests carrying the AI crawlers' names. It came up empty on 9 other checks too. 1 checks could not be measured; see the report limitations.

## Top issues
1. **No OpenAPI specification was identified at the 6 standard paths checked.** (programmatic_onboarding)
2. **No MCP manifest was identified at the 3 standard paths checked.** (agent_aware_instrumentation)
3. **No valid security.txt was identified at /.well-known/security.txt.** (machine_fetchable_trust)
The evidence and the recommended fix for each are on the report page: https://www.seconddoor.io/r/egghead-gm3mpn
## Files generated from this scan
- **Let verified assistants through** at `notes`, 1 hour, developer. Verify: On a subsequent scan, compare the same endpoint and client response. An unavailable check remains unresolved.
- **A comparison page brief** at `/compare/egghead-vs-competitor`, 3 hours, no developer needed. Verify: The next scan finds a comparison page listed in the sitemap or linked from the homepage, and reads its text without JavaScript.
- **pricing.md** at `/pricing.md`, 20 minutes, no developer needed. Verify: The next scan fetches /pricing.md as text and records pricing as machine readable.
- **Organization structured data** at `homepage`, 15 minutes, developer. Verify: The next scan reads Organization and WebSite nodes in the homepage JSON-LD and the structured data check passes.
- **security.txt** at `/.well-known/security.txt`, 10 minutes, no developer needed. Verify: The next scan fetches /.well-known/security.txt as text and the security.txt check passes.
- **llms.txt** at `/llms.txt`, 15 minutes, no developer needed. Verify: The next scan fetches /llms.txt as text and the llms.txt check passes.
Each file is written from what this scan found on the site. The content is in the JSON once the evidence is opened: https://www.seconddoor.io/api/reports/egghead-gm3mpn
## The agent door
- **machine_discoverability** 73/100. Robots.txt names 2 AI crawlers and allows them. on its first visit, our browser read the homepage. our client was refused when declaring 3 AI crawlers that robots.txt welcomes.
- **programmatic_onboarding** 10/100. No API interface was identified through the discovery paths and homepage links checked.
- **pricing_legibility** 85/100. 1 prices are readable without JavaScript, with no tier sent to sales.
- **agent_aware_instrumentation** 20/100. No MCP manifest was identified at the discovery paths checked. robots.txt names 2 AI crawlers and allows them.
- **machine_fetchable_trust** 40/100. No security.txt was identified at the checked path. the homepage answers automated requests.
- **commercial_rails** not measured. Not measured: our scanner could not identify the required evidence on the pages checked.
## The human door
- **steps_to_first_value** not measured. Not measured: our scanner could not identify the required evidence on the pages checked.
- **required_fields** not measured. Not measured: our scanner could not identify the required evidence on the pages checked.
- **verification_walls** not measured. Not measured: our scanner could not identify the required evidence on the pages checked.
- **error_recovery** not measured. Not measured: our scanner could not identify the required evidence on the pages checked.
