How the score is built

    We scan the public site

    The same scan Selfe runs on itself — no login, no manual review, nothing paid for.

    Found, Fit, Trusted, Paid — each one a real, quoted finding, not an estimate.

  3. 03

    Ranked against the category

Every finding

What the scan actually read off hermiston-keswick.com, grouped by pillar. Nothing here is inferred.

Whether crawlers are told what they’re allowed to read (robots.txt)
No robots.txt found. Nothing tells a crawler what it can and cannot read.
Not found
Whether there’s a map of every page (sitemap)
No sitemap.xml found. Nothing lists every page for a crawler to work through.
Not found
Whether your address itself can be found by DNS, not just by crawling (DNS-AID)
No DNS-AID service records at the _agents labels this scan resolves. Nothing to find by DNS alone.
Not found
Whether the page points to its own machine-readable versions in the response itself (Link headers)
No HTTP Link header on the homepage. An agent has to download and parse the HTML to find anything related, rather than reading it off the response.
Partial
Whether the page describes itself when shared or previewed (social / share meta)
No OpenGraph or Twitter card meta found. A link to this page previews as bare text, with nothing describing it.
Not found
Whether a registry can find out what you actually do (ARD)
Nothing at /.well-known/ard.json, and no Agentmap directive or ARD link pointing elsewhere. Nothing tells a registry what this business can do.
Not found
Whether another agent can find yours and deal with it directly (A2A)
No agent card at /.well-known/agent-card.json or the older /.well-known/agent.json, the two paths this scan checks.
Not found
Whether AI crawlers are named explicitly, not just let in by default (AI bot rules)
No AI-specific bot rules. Wildcard rules apply to everything including AI crawlers, so an agent has to guess whether it is actually welcome.
Partial
Whether you say what your content may be used for, not just who may fetch it (Content Signals)
No Content-Signal directives in robots.txt or the response headers. Access is answered but use is not, so an agent cannot tell training from answering.
Not found
Whether you can verify a bot is who it claims to be (Web Bot Auth)
Nothing at /.well-known/http-message-signatures-directory, the path this scan checks. Nothing verifies which bot is actually asking before it is let in.

Common questions

Would an AI agent even find Hermiston Guest House?

Not yet — No robots.txt found. Nothing tells a crawler what it can and cannot read; and No sitemap.xml found. Nothing lists every page for a crawler to work through.

Would an AI agent understand what Hermiston Guest House actually offers?

Not yet — No JSON-LD structured data found on the page. Nothing marks up what this business is or what it sells; and A request with Accept: text/markdown came back as text/html. An agent gets the full browser page and has to scrape meaning out of it.

Would an AI agent trust a booking with Hermiston Guest House?

Not yet — Nothing that resolves as an identity document at /.well-known/did.json, the path this scan checks. An agent has only your word for who you are; and No trust manifest naming an identity on the agent card this scan read. A name on a card is a label, not something an agent can resolve.

Can an AI agent complete a booking with Hermiston Guest House?

Not yet — Nothing at /.well-known/ucp, the path this scan checks. Nothing an agent could transact against; and No ACP discovery document at /.well-known/acp.json, the path this scan checks. ACP is optional and does not affect the core buyability score.
