What login.gov would have to change
2 checks cost login.gov points. Each one below is the specific remedy for what we measured, not general advice.
- llms.txt for AI readers0/15
Serve a plain-text file at
https://login.gov/llms.txtlisting the pages an agent most often needs — pricing, docs, support, account management — each as a one-line description and an absolute URL. It is read by an agent arriving cold with no idea of your structure. Fifteen points, and most teams ship it in an afternoon. - Structured data (schema.org JSON-LD)0/15
Add schema.org JSON-LD to the homepage —
Organizationat minimum, plusProductorArticlewhere they apply. It is how an agent learns what login.gov is without inferring it from prose. - MCP server advertised0/5
Optional, and rare — only a handful of the sites we track run one. An MCP server lets an agent act on login.gov through a defined interface instead of scraping it. Advertise it at
/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json. - OpenAPI description published0/5
Optional. If login.gov has a public API, publishing an OpenAPI document at
/openapi.jsonlets an agent call it correctly without a human reading your docs first.
