What is holding Plos back

  1. Home page for a declared agent, 33.2 points lost. The home page returned 403 to a declared agent. Fix: Allow declared agents through bot management on public pages, and verify them with signed requests.
  2. MCP server, 7.2 points lost. No MCP server, server card or registry entry was found for this organization. Fix: Publish a remote MCP server with OAuth. Start with read only tools such as account status, orders or location search, and publish a server card at /.well known/mcp/server card.
  3. An agent can start becoming a customer, 5.1 points lost. Become a customer: No link to become a customer on the home page. Fix: Make the call to action a plain link on the home page, keep the form behind it on a page an agent can load, label every field, and keep bot checks off the first step.
  4. Prices and rates an agent can read, 4.1 points lost. No price or rate an agent can read was found on the home page or in structured data. Fix: Add Offer markup with the price or the rate, for loans and accounts to product pages, and show the price or rate in the page text, not only in images or after scripts run.
