Why it matters
Before an AI agent can include your site in answers it has to discover it. If discovery files like robots.txt, sitemap, llms.txt are misconfigured, the bot skips your content entirely — you become invisible in rankings.
How AIDE tests it
AIDE's scanner inspects your HTML, response headers, and where applicable external signals to evaluate vso-video-sitemap, then returns PASS / WARNING / FAIL / SKIPPED against the threshold. Weight: 7.0 points, severity: low.
How to fix it
- Author robots.txt with explicit
User-agentrules; separate lines per AI bot. - Feed sitemap.xml from an auto-generating CMS or build pipeline.
- Publish llms.txt + llms-full.txt — a structured summary for AI agents.
