## Top issues
1. **The shipping policy is not published at standard paths and is not machine-readable.** (machine_fetchable_trust)
2. **Agents cannot complete a purchase because no commerce platform or payment processor is exposed to them.** (commercial_rails)
The evidence and the recommended fix for each are on the report page: https://www.seconddoor.io/r/seconddoor-tb8vy5
## Files generated from this scan
- **Shipping and delivery page** at `/shipping`, 30 minutes, no developer needed. Verify: The next scan reads the shipping policy page as text without JavaScript and finds it linked from a product page.
- **Agent checkout: where you stand** at `notes`, 10 minutes, no developer needed. Verify: The next scan finds a UCP manifest, a storefront MCP endpoint or another discovery file answering, and the checkout check passes.
- **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.
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/seconddoor-tb8vy5
## The agent door
- **machine_discoverability** 100/100. Robots.txt names 14 AI crawlers and allows them all. A real browser is served the page normally. No user agent rule refuses declared crawler names.
- **programmatic_onboarding** 50/100. A machine readable API spec is published.
- **pricing_legibility** 88/100. Six prices are readable without JavaScript on the pricing page: $0, $29, $99, $249, $2,500, and one more. No tier is gated behind a demo or contact-sales wall. The page carries FAQ schema markup. Pricing is published and legible.
- **agent_aware_instrumentation** 100/100. An MCP manifest is published at /.well-known/mcp.json. An ai-plugin.json is published. Robots.txt names 14 AI crawlers and allows them. An OpenAPI spec is published. The site declares its intent for assistants across multiple standards.
- **machine_fetchable_trust** 85/100. Security.txt is published at /.well-known/security.txt with a contact route for machines. The returns policy reads as text at /refunds. The homepage answers automated requests.
- **commercial_rails** 65/100. Prices are published in raw HTML on the pricing page. A self-serve signup form is 2 steps from the homepage and asks for work email and password only. However, no UCP manifest, commerce platform, or payment processor is detected.
## The human door
- **steps_to_first_value** 80/100. The primary call to action, 'Sign up for free', is 2 steps from the homepage and leads to a 2-field signup form. A visitor reaches the form quickly. What happens after submission was not observed in this scan.
- **required_fields** 93/100. The signup form has 2 fields, both required: work email and password. One sign-in option is offered: Google. Both inputs carry validation rules. The form asks for the minimum needed to create an account.
- **verification_walls** 80/100. No verification requirement appears on the signup page itself. Google sign-in avoids email verification entirely. Email verification after submission was not observed in this scan, so the full verification wall is unmeasured.
- **error_recovery** 80/100. Both of the 2 inputs on the signup form carry validation rules, so a visitor receives feedback if they enter invalid data. No inline error containers or live regions were detected, so error messaging detail is unmeasured.
