Security

Priority 5

Add common public security headers

-14 rule pts

What failed

Several basic browser protection headers were not visible.

Evidence

Detected 1 of 5 common public security headers. Present: strict-transport-security. Missing: content-security-policy, x-content-type-options, x-frame-options, referrer-policy.

Priority

Priority 5: fix before sharing the page publicly.

Why it matters

These headers reduce avoidable browser-side risk and show a baseline of care before launch.

How to fix it

Configure headers such as Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy.

## Role
Act as a focused public web security remediation expert who can inspect the public page and safely improve the underlying implementation.
## Inputs
- Primary context: Improve hackyard.tech at https://hackyard.tech.
- Scanner check ID: security_common_headers.
- Fix title: Add common public security headers.
- Scanner check: Common security headers.
- Category: Security.
- Status: fail.
- Severity: high.
- Priority: 5; lower numbers are more urgent.
- Score impact: 14 rule points lost.
- Evidence: Detected 1 of 5 common public security headers. Present: strict-transport-security. Missing: content-security-policy, x-content-type-options, x-frame-options, referrer-policy.
- What needs attention: Several basic browser protection headers were not visible.
- Why it matters: These headers reduce avoidable browser-side risk and show a baseline of care before launch.
- Status-specific guidance: A public check reported a failure. Reproduce or inspect the issue first, then make the smallest safe fix.
- Audience or recipient: The site owner, builder, or marketing team responsible for improving this public page.
- Constraints, examples, or source material: Treat the live URL as the public target to inspect, not as the only source of truth. When repository, CMS, or hosting access is available, use that implementation context before changing anything.
- Target outcome: After the fix is deployed and the public page is rescanned, this specific check should improve or pass without lowering other SEO / AEO, security, accessibility, or design signals.
- Likely places to inspect: hosting headers, server middleware, edge/proxy config, CDN rules, and framework security header configuration; server, edge, CDN, hosting, proxy, form action, asset URL, cookie, and public file access configuration; the route, template, component, CMS entry, theme file, or static page that renders the scanned URL; shared layout, metadata, routing, middleware, server, CDN, or hosting configuration if the issue is not in page content; existing tests, build scripts, preview commands, and deployment notes before choosing verification steps.
## Task
Use the provided context to safely complete this workflow: Configure headers such as Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
First reproduce or verify the issue from the public page and available implementation source. Then make the smallest stack-appropriate change that fixes the scanner signal and improves the real user experience.
Use this check-specific implementation guide:
- Add missing common browser protection headers with values appropriate for the site.
- Test CSP or frame policies carefully so they do not break scripts, images, analytics, payments, embeds, or auth.
- Prefer narrow, production-safe security configuration changes over blanket disables or permissive rules.
- Preserve authentication, authorization, private paths, and sensitive file protections while fixing the public launch page.
- Keep the implementation stack-appropriate: use the existing framework, CMS, hosting provider, design system, and deployment workflow already in the project.
Acceptance criteria for this fix:
- Important security headers are visible on the public response.
- The page still renders and key flows still work after header changes.
- The public URL keeps legitimate visitors and assets working while removing the reported browser-side or public exposure risk.
- The change does not weaken security headers, authentication, authorization, or private route protections.
- A fresh FreeScan rescan should show this check improved or passing after deployment.
## Output
Return a structured response with these headings: Findings, Changes Made, Verification Results, Rescan Expectation, Rollback Notes, Assumptions.
## Rules
- Ask a clarifying question when required context is missing.
- Preserve the user's intent and avoid inventing facts.
- Verify the issue exists before changing code or content. If the issue is not reproducible, explain what you checked and recommend no code change.
- If the live URL and implementation source disagree, trust the implementation source for edits and use the live URL only to understand current public behavior.
- Keep the change narrowly scoped to this fix unless another change is required to avoid a regression.
- Match the existing framework, style, design system, routing patterns, and content conventions.
- Preserve existing URLs, forms, analytics, SEO metadata, accessibility semantics, and conversion flows unless the fix explicitly requires changing them.
- Do not perform broad refactors, dependency upgrades, redesigns, rewrites, migrations, file deletions, route changes, or destructive commands unless they are explicitly required and approved.
- Make changes that are easy to review and roll back.
- Prefer editing the canonical source of the page over patching built output, generated files, CDN-cached HTML, or minified assets.
- Do not make a cosmetic or placeholder change just to satisfy the scanner; the public page should be materially better for visitors, crawlers, or assistive technology.
- Verify the result with the smallest reliable test, build, browser check, or manual inspection available.
## Safety
- Do not request, expose, or reproduce sensitive data.
- Redact private details from examples unless the user explicitly says they are safe to include.
- Do not use credentials, cookies, authenticated data, hidden form values, or private response bodies.
- Do not weaken security headers, authentication, authorization, privacy controls, accessibility, or error handling to make the scan pass.

Accessibility

Priority 5

Fix rendered axe accessibility violations

-18 rule pts

What failed

The rendered page has accessibility rule violations detected by axe-core.

Evidence

axe found 2 violation rule(s), including 2 serious or critical rule(s). Top rules: aria-prohibited-attr (1), color-contrast (29).

Priority

Priority 5: fix before sharing the page publicly.

Why it matters

axe checks the actual browser-rendered page, so these issues can affect people using keyboards, screen readers, or other assistive technology.

How to fix it

Fix the top axe rule IDs first, especially critical and serious violations around names, roles, labels, headings, contrast, landmarks, and keyboard-accessible controls.

First reproduce or verify the issue from the public page and available implementation source. Then make the smallest stack-appropriate change that fixes the scanner signal and improves the real user experience.
Use this check-specific implementation guide:
- Fix each reported accessibility violation at the semantic source.
- Avoid suppressing automated checks unless there is a documented false positive.
- Fix the semantic or interaction source of the issue rather than hiding warnings with ARIA or visual-only workarounds.
- Keep keyboard, screen reader, and touch users in the verification path.
- Keep the implementation stack-appropriate: use the existing framework, CMS, hosting provider, design system, and deployment workflow already in the project.
Acceptance criteria for this fix:
- Critical and serious axe issues tied to this page are resolved or clearly documented as non-reproducible.
- Fixes do not introduce new keyboard, label, contrast, or landmark regressions.
- The affected UI remains usable by keyboard and assistive technology and does not introduce heading, label, focus, or contrast regressions.
- The change can be checked in the browser or with an accessibility audit tool when available.
- A fresh FreeScan rescan should show this check improved or passing after deployment.

- Why it matters: Horizontal overflow and tiny tap targets make the page feel broken on real devices, especially for mobile visitors.
- Status-specific guidance: A public check reported a failure. Reproduce or inspect the issue first, then make the smallest safe fix.
- Audience or recipient: The site owner, builder, or marketing team responsible for improving this public page.
- Constraints, examples, or source material: Treat the live URL as the public target to inspect, not as the only source of truth. When repository, CMS, or hosting access is available, use that implementation context before changing anything.
- Target outcome: After the fix is deployed and the public page is rescanned, this specific check should improve or pass without lowering other SEO / AEO, security, accessibility, or design signals.
- Likely places to inspect: mobile viewport, horizontal overflow sources, tap target sizes, fixed-position elements, menus, forms, and embeds; page layout, responsive CSS, component states, copy hierarchy, CTA placement, spacing tokens, rendered console output, and performance-sensitive assets; the route, template, component, CMS entry, theme file, or static page that renders the scanned URL; shared layout, metadata, routing, middleware, server, CDN, or hosting configuration if the issue is not in page content; existing tests, build scripts, preview commands, and deployment notes before choosing verification steps.
## Task
Use the provided context to safely complete this workflow: Remove elements wider than the viewport, add responsive constraints, and make important links, buttons, inputs, and controls at least 40px tall and wide where possible.
First reproduce or verify the issue from the public page and available implementation source. Then make the smallest stack-appropriate change that fixes the scanner signal and improves the real user experience.
Use this check-specific implementation guide:
- Constrain overflowing elements and increase small important tap targets where possible.
- Preserve layout intent while making the rendered page usable on real devices.
- Improve the actual rendered page at mobile and desktop sizes, not only the source code shape.
- Preserve core conversion flows while making layout, hierarchy, readability, or runtime health better.
- Keep the implementation stack-appropriate: use the existing framework, CMS, hosting provider, design system, and deployment workflow already in the project.
Acceptance criteria for this fix:
- The rendered page has no meaningful horizontal overflow.
- Important links, buttons, inputs, and controls are comfortably tappable.
- The rendered page is visually stable and usable on mobile and desktop viewports.
- The fix does not hide content, break CTAs, introduce console errors, or reduce clarity for visitors.
- A fresh FreeScan rescan should show this check improved or passing after deployment.
## Output
Return a structured response with these headings: Findings, Changes Made, Verification Results, Rescan Expectation, Rollback Notes, Assumptions.
## Rules
- Ask a clarifying question when required context is missing.
- Preserve the user's intent and avoid inventing facts.
- Verify the issue exists before changing code or content. If the issue is not reproducible, explain what you checked and recommend no code change.
- If the live URL and implementation source disagree, trust the implementation source for edits and use the live URL only to understand current public behavior.
- Keep the change narrowly scoped to this fix unless another change is required to avoid a regression.
- Match the existing framework, style, design system, routing patterns, and content conventions.
- Preserve existing URLs, forms, analytics, SEO metadata, accessibility semantics, and conversion flows unless the fix explicitly requires changing them.
- Do not perform broad refactors, dependency upgrades, redesigns, rewrites, migrations, file deletions, route changes, or destructive commands unless they are explicitly required and approved.
- Make changes that are easy to review and roll back.
- Prefer editing the canonical source of the page over patching built output, generated files, CDN-cached HTML, or minified assets.
- Do not make a cosmetic or placeholder change just to satisfy the scanner; the public page should be materially better for visitors, crawlers, or assistive technology.
- Verify the result with the smallest reliable test, build, browser check, or manual inspection available.
## Safety
- Do not request, expose, or reproduce sensitive data.
- Redact private details from examples unless the user explicitly says they are safe to include.
- Do not use credentials, cookies, authenticated data, hidden form values, or private response bodies.
- Do not weaken security headers, authentication, authorization, privacy controls, accessibility, or error handling to make the scan pass.

## Prioritized Fixes

### 1. Add common public security headers

- Category: Security
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 14
- Evidence: Detected 1 of 5 common public security headers. Present: strict-transport-security. Missing: content-security-policy, x-content-type-options, x-frame-options, referrer-policy.
- Why it matters: These headers reduce avoidable browser-side risk and show a baseline of care before launch.
- Fix: Configure headers such as Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy.

### 2. Fix rendered axe accessibility violations

- Category: Accessibility
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 18
- Evidence: axe found 2 violation rule(s), including 2 serious or critical rule(s). Top rules: aria-prohibited-attr (1), color-contrast (29).
- Why it matters: axe checks the actual browser-rendered page, so these issues can affect people using keyboards, screen readers, or other assistive technology.
- Fix: Fix the top axe rule IDs first, especially critical and serious violations around names, roles, labels, headings, contrast, landmarks, and keyboard-accessible controls.

### 3. Add a useful meta description

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 10
- Evidence: Meta description is 31 characters.
- Why it matters: A missing description makes previews weaker when early users share or find the page.
- Fix: Add a meta description around 50 to 170 characters that says who the product helps and what outcome it creates.

### 4. Publish a valid sitemap.xml

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 12
- Evidence: HTTP 404 returned for sitemap_xml.
- Why it matters: A sitemap helps search engines discover the landing page and related public pages sooner.
- Fix: Add a static sitemap file or dynamic /sitemap.xml route with valid urlset or sitemapindex XML, include your public canonical URLs, and confirm it returns HTTP 200.

### 5. Clarify the hero promise

- Category: Design
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 13
- Evidence: Detected 1 H1 heading(s) and 31 meta-description characters.
- Why it matters: Visitors decide quickly whether the product is relevant; a vague hero weakens every acquisition channel.
- Fix: Use one clear H1 plus supporting copy that names the audience, problem, and outcome.

## Opportunities

### Add answer-ready sections for common buyer questions

- Impact: high
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Pricing signals: 1. Use-case signals: 0. Integration/API signals: 1.
- Why it matters: Answer engines and search visitors need concise textual answers to summarize who the product is for, how it works, what it costs, and what it connects with.
- Next step: Add short, crawlable sections for pricing or plans, ideal users, use cases, integrations, security, and how the product differs from alternatives.

### Expose important supporting pages in navigation or footer

- Impact: medium
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: No pricing, docs, contact, security, privacy, terms, or about links were detected in public internal links.
- Why it matters: Internal links help visitors, crawlers, and AI answer systems discover supporting facts instead of relying on one landing page.
- Next step: Link to the most useful public pages, especially pricing, docs, contact, security, privacy, terms, and about pages where applicable.

### Make trust and proof easier to detect

- Impact: medium
- Category: Design
- Evidence: Detected 0 trust-signal keyword occurrence(s).
- Why it matters: Visitors who arrive cold from search, social, or AI citations need proof before they submit a form, start a trial, or buy.
- Next step: Add honest proof such as customer quotes, recognizable logos, security notes, usage stats, reviews, case studies, or founder credibility.

### Add an optional LLM-readable site summary

- Impact: low
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: HTTP 404 returned for llms_txt.
- Why it matters: This is not required for Google AI features, but a concise public markdown summary can help AI agents and internal tools understand key pages.
- Next step: Publish a short llms.txt with product facts, audience, key public links, docs, pricing, support, and usage boundaries.

### Review snippet and preview controls

- Impact: low
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Open Graph image was detected. Preview controls detected: 0.
- Why it matters: Preview controls can clarify how much text, image, and video content search systems may show from the page.
- Next step: Only add robots preview controls when you intentionally want to limit snippets or image/video previews; otherwise leave previews open.

### Tighten the live color system

- Impact: high
- Category: Accessibility
- Evidence: 9 of 100 rendered contrast sample(s) missed target. Worst ratio: 1.
- Why it matters: Computed contrast catches the actual colors visitors see after CSS, themes, and overlays are applied.
- Next step: Audit foreground/background token pairs for body text, muted text, links, buttons, inputs, and badges, then raise weak pairs to WCAG AA contrast targets.

### Polish rendered responsive ergonomics

- Impact: medium
- Category: Design
- Evidence: Horizontal overflow: 0px. Small tap targets: 9.
- Why it matters: Overflow and tiny controls are easy for static scans to miss but obvious to real users, especially on mobile and tablet layouts.
- Next step: Constrain wide elements, avoid fixed-width content that exceeds the viewport, and increase touch target sizes for interactive controls.

## Insights

### Crawlability needs review

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: HTTP 200. robots.txt: not reachable. sitemap.xml: not reachable. noindex check: clear.
- Interpretation: One or more crawl/index signals could prevent the page from being reliably discovered or shown.
- Recommended use: Use this as the first launch gate before deeper content, ranking, or AI visibility work.

### AEO depends on normal SEO plus answerable text

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Visible words: 488. H1 count: 1. Audience signals: 5. CTA labels: Join Yard #1, Join Yard #1, Start a sponsorship ↗.
- Interpretation: Google AI features currently rely on standard Search eligibility; the extra advantage comes from content that is easy to quote, summarize, and verify.
- Recommended use: Prioritize clear text answers, crawlable support pages, accurate schema, and visible proof over speculative AI-only markup.

### Detected entity signals

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Title: Hackyard — Come build in the yard.. H1: Come build in the yard.. Schema types: none.
- Interpretation: The stronger and more consistent these entity signals are, the easier it is for search and answer systems to identify the brand, product category, and page purpose.
- Recommended use: Keep the title, H1, meta description, Open Graph, schema, footer, and about/pricing/docs pages aligned around the same product facts.

### No structured data detected

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: JSON-LD blocks: 0. Types: none. Parse errors: 0.
- Interpretation: Missing or invalid structured data makes the page rely more heavily on inferred meaning from text and layout.
- Recommended use: Validate JSON-LD and use only accurate facts that are visible or clearly supported on the public page.

### Weakest score area

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: SEO / AEO: 51/100. Security: 82/100. Accessibility: 72/100. Design: 71/100
- Interpretation: The weakest area is SEO / AEO, so improvements there should have the most visible effect on readiness.
- Recommended use: Use the score mix to choose the next workstream instead of treating every issue as equally urgent.

### LLM-readable file not found

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: HTTP 404 returned for llms_txt.
- Interpretation: llms.txt can be a useful optional summary for agents, but it should not be treated as a guaranteed AI search ranking factor.
- Recommended use: Invest first in crawlability, helpful visible content, internal links, and accurate schema; add llms.txt as a tidy supplement.

### Rendered page experience snapshot

- Category: Design
- Evidence: Rendered text samples: 100. Contrast failures: 9. Console errors: 0. Horizontal overflow: 0px.
- Interpretation: The scan inspected the browser-rendered page, so contrast, runtime, layout, and timing signals are more representative than static markup alone.
- Recommended use: Use rendered checks to prioritize issues that visitors actually experience after JavaScript and CSS load.

### Rendered speed snapshot

- Category: Design
- Evidence: DOMContentLoaded: 679ms. Load complete: 1019ms. First contentful paint: 920ms. Resources: 25. Scripts: 9. Images: 2. Third-party origins: 6. Transfer: not available.
- Interpretation: These are lightweight browser timings from one rendered scan, so they are useful directional signals rather than real-user performance proof.
- Recommended use: Use slow timings, high script counts, heavy transfer size, and many third-party origins to choose focused speed work, then verify important changes with analytics or field data when available.

### Rendered axe accessibility snapshot

- Category: Accessibility
- Evidence: axe violations: 2. Critical: 0. Serious: 2. Top rules: aria-prohibited-attr, color-contrast.
- Interpretation: axe-core catches common accessibility failures in the actual rendered DOM, but it is still automated coverage and not a full manual accessibility audit.
- Recommended use: Treat critical and serious axe failures as high-priority fixes, then manually review keyboard flow, focus states, screen reader meaning, and interaction states.

## Role
Act as a focused public web security remediation expert who can inspect the public page and safely improve the underlying implementation.
## Inputs
- Primary context: Improve hackyard.tech at https://hackyard.tech.
- Scanner check ID: security_common_headers.
- Fix title: Add common public security headers.

- Evidence: Detected 1 of 5 common public security headers. Present: strict-transport-security. Missing: content-security-policy, x-content-type-options, x-frame-options, referrer-policy.
- What needs attention: Several basic browser protection headers were not visible.
- Why it matters: These headers reduce avoidable browser-side risk and show a baseline of care before launch.
- Status-specific guidance: A public check reported a failure. Reproduce or inspect the issue first, then make the smallest safe fix.
- Audience or recipient: The site owner, builder, or marketing team responsible for improving this public page.
- Constraints, examples, or source material: Treat the live URL as the public target to inspect, not as the only source of truth. When repository, CMS, or hosting access is available, use that implementation context before changing anything.
- Target outcome: After the fix is deployed and the public page is rescanned, this specific check should improve or pass without lowering other SEO / AEO, security, accessibility, or design signals.
- Likely places to inspect: hosting headers, server middleware, edge/proxy config, CDN rules, and framework security header configuration; server, edge, CDN, hosting, proxy, form action, asset URL, cookie, and public file access configuration; the route, template, component, CMS entry, theme file, or static page that renders the scanned URL; shared layout, metadata, routing, middleware, server, CDN, or hosting configuration if the issue is not in page content; existing tests, build scripts, preview commands, and deployment notes before choosing verification steps.
## Task
Use the provided context to safely complete this workflow: Configure headers such as Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy.
First reproduce or verify the issue from the public page and available implementation source. Then make the smallest stack-appropriate change that fixes the scanner signal and improves the real user experience.
Use this check-specific implementation guide:
- Add missing common browser protection headers with values appropriate for the site.
- Test CSP or frame policies carefully so they do not break scripts, images, analytics, payments, embeds, or auth.
- Prefer narrow, production-safe security configuration changes over blanket disables or permissive rules.
- Preserve authentication, authorization, private paths, and sensitive file protections while fixing the public launch page.
- Keep the implementation stack-appropriate: use the existing framework, CMS, hosting provider, design system, and deployment workflow already in the project.
Acceptance criteria for this fix:
- Important security headers are visible on the public response.
- The page still renders and key flows still work after header changes.
- The public URL keeps legitimate visitors and assets working while removing the reported browser-side or public exposure risk.
- The change does not weaken security headers, authentication, authorization, or private route protections.
- A fresh FreeScan rescan should show this check improved or passing after deployment.
## Output
Return a structured response with these headings: Findings, Changes Made, Verification Results, Rescan Expectation, Rollback Notes, Assumptions.
## Rules
- Ask a clarifying question when required context is missing.
- Preserve the user's intent and avoid inventing facts.
- Verify the issue exists before changing code or content. If the issue is not reproducible, explain what you checked and recommend no code change.
- If the live URL and implementation source disagree, trust the implementation source for edits and use the live URL only to understand current public behavior.
- Keep the change narrowly scoped to this fix unless another change is required to avoid a regression.
- Match the existing framework, style, design system, routing patterns, and content conventions.
- Preserve existing URLs, forms, analytics, SEO metadata, accessibility semantics, and conversion flows unless the fix explicitly requires changing them.
- Do not perform broad refactors, dependency upgrades, redesigns, rewrites, migrations, file deletions, route changes, or destructive commands unless they are explicitly required and approved.
- Make changes that are easy to review and roll back.
- Prefer editing the canonical source of the page over patching built output, generated files, CDN-cached HTML, or minified assets.
- Do not make a cosmetic or placeholder change just to satisfy the scanner; the public page should be materially better for visitors, crawlers, or assistive technology.
- Verify the result with the smallest reliable test, build, browser check, or manual inspection available.
## Safety
- Do not request, expose, or reproduce sensitive data.
- Redact private details from examples unless the user explicitly says they are safe to include.
- Do not use credentials, cookies, authenticated data, hidden form values, or private response bodies.
- Do not weaken security headers, authentication, authorization, privacy controls, accessibility, or error handling to make the scan pass.

Return a structured response with these headings: Findings, Changes Made, Verification Results, Rescan Expectation, Rollback Notes, Assumptions.
## Rules
- Ask a clarifying question when required context is missing.
- Preserve the user's intent and avoid inventing facts.
- Verify the issue exists before changing code or content. If the issue is not reproducible, explain what you checked and recommend no code change.
- If the live URL and implementation source disagree, trust the implementation source for edits and use the live URL only to understand current public behavior.
- Keep the change narrowly scoped to this fix unless another change is required to avoid a regression.
- Match the existing framework, style, design system, routing patterns, and content conventions.
- Preserve existing URLs, forms, analytics, SEO metadata, accessibility semantics, and conversion flows unless the fix explicitly requires changing them.
- Do not perform broad refactors, dependency upgrades, redesigns, rewrites, migrations, file deletions, route changes, or destructive commands unless they are explicitly required and approved.
- Make changes that are easy to review and roll back.
- Prefer editing the canonical source of the page over patching built output, generated files, CDN-cached HTML, or minified assets.
- Do not make a cosmetic or placeholder change just to satisfy the scanner; the public page should be materially better for visitors, crawlers, or assistive technology.
- Verify the result with the smallest reliable test, build, browser check, or manual inspection available.
## Safety
- Do not request, expose, or reproduce sensitive data.
- Redact private details from examples unless the user explicitly says they are safe to include.
- Do not use credentials, cookies, authenticated data, hidden form values, or private response bodies.
- Do not weaken security headers, authentication, authorization, privacy controls, accessibility, or error handling to make the scan pass.

## AI Crawler Access

These results combine robots.txt policy, page controls, and bounded synthetic User-Agent probes. Synthetic probes do not prove that traffic came from the vendor; training and data-use choices are neutral publisher preferences.

- **OpenAI — ChatGPT search** (OAI-SearchBot): PASS — robots allowed; synthetic probe reachable (HTTP 200). No robots.txt file was published, so this token is allowed by default. Synthetic User-Agent probe returned HTTP 200 with 100% sampled-content parity.

## Prioritized Fixes

### 1. Add common public security headers

- Category: Security
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 14
- Evidence: Detected 1 of 5 common public security headers. Present: strict-transport-security. Missing: content-security-policy, x-content-type-options, x-frame-options, referrer-policy.
- Why it matters: These headers reduce avoidable browser-side risk and show a baseline of care before launch.
- Fix: Configure headers such as Strict-Transport-Security, Content-Security-Policy, X-Content-Type-Options, X-Frame-Options, and Referrer-Policy.

### 2. Fix rendered axe accessibility violations

- Category: Accessibility
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 18
- Evidence: axe found 2 violation rule(s), including 2 serious or critical rule(s). Top rules: aria-prohibited-attr (1), color-contrast (29).
- Why it matters: axe checks the actual browser-rendered page, so these issues can affect people using keyboards, screen readers, or other assistive technology.
- Fix: Fix the top axe rule IDs first, especially critical and serious violations around names, roles, labels, headings, contrast, landmarks, and keyboard-accessible controls.

### 3. Add a useful meta description

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 10
- Evidence: Meta description is 31 characters.
- Why it matters: A missing description makes previews weaker when early users share or find the page.
- Fix: Add a meta description around 50 to 170 characters that says who the product helps and what outcome it creates.

### 4. Publish a valid sitemap.xml

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 12
- Evidence: HTTP 404 returned for sitemap_xml.
- Why it matters: A sitemap helps search engines discover the landing page and related public pages sooner.
- Fix: Add a static sitemap file or dynamic /sitemap.xml route with valid urlset or sitemapindex XML, include your public canonical URLs, and confirm it returns HTTP 200.

### 5. Clarify the hero promise

- Category: Design
- Status: fail
- Severity: high
- Rule points lost: 13
- Evidence: Detected 1 H1 heading(s) and 31 meta-description characters.
- Why it matters: Visitors decide quickly whether the product is relevant; a vague hero weakens every acquisition channel.
- Fix: Use one clear H1 plus supporting copy that names the audience, problem, and outcome.

## Opportunities

### Add answer-ready sections for common buyer questions

- Impact: high
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Pricing signals: 1. Use-case signals: 0. Integration/API signals: 1.
- Why it matters: Answer engines and search visitors need concise textual answers to summarize who the product is for, how it works, what it costs, and what it connects with.
- Next step: Add short, crawlable sections for pricing or plans, ideal users, use cases, integrations, security, and how the product differs from alternatives.

### Expose important supporting pages in navigation or footer

- Impact: medium
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: No pricing, docs, contact, security, privacy, terms, or about links were detected in public internal links.
- Why it matters: Internal links help visitors, crawlers, and AI answer systems discover supporting facts instead of relying on one landing page.
- Next step: Link to the most useful public pages, especially pricing, docs, contact, security, privacy, terms, and about pages where applicable.

### Make trust and proof easier to detect

- Impact: medium
- Category: Design
- Evidence: Detected 0 trust-signal keyword occurrence(s).
- Why it matters: Visitors who arrive cold from search, social, or AI citations need proof before they submit a form, start a trial, or buy.
- Next step: Add honest proof such as customer quotes, recognizable logos, security notes, usage stats, reviews, case studies, or founder credibility.

### Add an optional LLM-readable site summary

- Impact: low
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: HTTP 404 returned for llms_txt.
- Why it matters: This is not required for Google AI features, but a concise public markdown summary can help AI agents and internal tools understand key pages.
- Next step: Publish a short llms.txt with product facts, audience, key public links, docs, pricing, support, and usage boundaries.

### Review snippet and preview controls

- Impact: low
- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Open Graph image was detected. Preview controls detected: 0.
- Why it matters: Preview controls can clarify how much text, image, and video content search systems may show from the page.
- Next step: Only add robots preview controls when you intentionally want to limit snippets or image/video previews; otherwise leave previews open.

### Tighten the live color system

- Impact: high
- Category: Accessibility
- Evidence: 9 of 100 rendered contrast sample(s) missed target. Worst ratio: 1.
- Why it matters: Computed contrast catches the actual colors visitors see after CSS, themes, and overlays are applied.
- Next step: Audit foreground/background token pairs for body text, muted text, links, buttons, inputs, and badges, then raise weak pairs to WCAG AA contrast targets.

### Polish rendered responsive ergonomics

- Impact: medium
- Category: Design
- Evidence: Horizontal overflow: 0px. Small tap targets: 9.
- Why it matters: Overflow and tiny controls are easy for static scans to miss but obvious to real users, especially on mobile and tablet layouts.
- Next step: Constrain wide elements, avoid fixed-width content that exceeds the viewport, and increase touch target sizes for interactive controls.

## Insights

### Crawlability needs review

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: HTTP 200. robots.txt: not reachable. sitemap.xml: not reachable. noindex check: clear.
- Interpretation: One or more crawl/index signals could prevent the page from being reliably discovered or shown.
- Recommended use: Use this as the first launch gate before deeper content, ranking, or AI visibility work.

### AEO depends on normal SEO plus answerable text

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Visible words: 488. H1 count: 1. Audience signals: 5. CTA labels: Join Yard #1, Join Yard #1, Start a sponsorship ↗.
- Interpretation: Google AI features currently rely on standard Search eligibility; the extra advantage comes from content that is easy to quote, summarize, and verify.
- Recommended use: Prioritize clear text answers, crawlable support pages, accurate schema, and visible proof over speculative AI-only markup.

### Detected entity signals

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: Title: Hackyard — Come build in the yard.. H1: Come build in the yard.. Schema types: none.
- Interpretation: The stronger and more consistent these entity signals are, the easier it is for search and answer systems to identify the brand, product category, and page purpose.
- Recommended use: Keep the title, H1, meta description, Open Graph, schema, footer, and about/pricing/docs pages aligned around the same product facts.

### No structured data detected

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: JSON-LD blocks: 0. Types: none. Parse errors: 0.
- Interpretation: Missing or invalid structured data makes the page rely more heavily on inferred meaning from text and layout.
- Recommended use: Validate JSON-LD and use only accurate facts that are visible or clearly supported on the public page.

### Weakest score area

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: SEO / AEO: 51/100. Security: 82/100. Accessibility: 72/100. Design: 71/100
- Interpretation: The weakest area is SEO / AEO, so improvements there should have the most visible effect on readiness.
- Recommended use: Use the score mix to choose the next workstream instead of treating every issue as equally urgent.

### LLM-readable file not found

- Category: SEO / AEO
- Evidence: HTTP 404 returned for llms_txt.
- Interpretation: llms.txt can be a useful optional summary for agents, but it should not be treated as a guaranteed AI search ranking factor.
- Recommended use: Invest first in crawlability, helpful visible content, internal links, and accurate schema; add llms.txt as a tidy supplement.

### Rendered page experience snapshot

- Category: Design
- Evidence: Rendered text samples: 100. Contrast failures: 9. Console errors: 0. Horizontal overflow: 0px.
- Interpretation: The scan inspected the browser-rendered page, so contrast, runtime, layout, and timing signals are more representative than static markup alone.
- Recommended use: Use rendered checks to prioritize issues that visitors actually experience after JavaScript and CSS load.

### Rendered speed snapshot

- Category: Design
- Evidence: DOMContentLoaded: 679ms. Load complete: 1019ms. First contentful paint: 920ms. Resources: 25. Scripts: 9. Images: 2. Third-party origins: 6. Transfer: not available.
- Interpretation: These are lightweight browser timings from one rendered scan, so they are useful directional signals rather than real-user performance proof.
- Recommended use: Use slow timings, high script counts, heavy transfer size, and many third-party origins to choose focused speed work, then verify important changes with analytics or field data when available.

### Rendered axe accessibility snapshot

- Category: Accessibility
- Evidence: axe violations: 2. Critical: 0. Serious: 2. Top rules: aria-prohibited-attr, color-contrast.
- Interpretation: axe-core catches common accessibility failures in the actual rendered DOM, but it is still automated coverage and not a full manual accessibility audit.
- Recommended use: Treat critical and serious axe failures as high-priority fixes, then manually review keyboard flow, focus states, screen reader meaning, and interaction states.

## Scope
