## What is holding Namecheap back

1. **Developer and data sharing program**, 4 points lost. No developer portal or data sharing program was found on public pages. Fix: Document the program, the standard in use for example FDX in US banking, the supported partners and a sandbox.
2. **Sign in page loads for a declared agent in a browser**, 4 points lost. The sign in page did not load for an agent or a standard automated browser. Fix: Serve the sign in page to verified agent browsers, and use signed agent identity to separate them from attackers.
3. **Public API documentation**, 3 points lost. No public API documentation was found. Fix: Publish an OpenAPI document for customer facing APIs on a developer portal.
4. **Browser tools exposed to agents**, 3 points lost. The sign in and home pages register no browser tools for agents. Fix: Register tools for safe tasks such as location search and price lookup with navigator.modelContext.
