AI agents are increasingly browsing websites on behalf of users, and most sites aren't ready for them. Five key building blocks make a website agent-friendly: (1) updating robots.txt to allow AI agent user-agents while blocking training crawlers, (2) adding an llms.txt file as a structured guide for agents, (3) serving content in markdown format for efficient consumption, (4) exposing an OpenAPI spec so agents can interact with your product's API, and (5) experimenting with WebMCP for JavaScript-based agent-native integrations. A free tool called AgentProbe is mentioned for auditing agent-readiness.
