No NLWeb / MCP server discovery hint detected

NLWeb and MCP (Model Context Protocol) are emerging standards that let AI assistants query your website directly, like a conversation. A discovery hint tells AI tools that a machine-readable interface exists for your site.

Why this matters

As AI-powered search and digital assistants grow, sites that publish these hints may get surfaced more readily when users ask AI tools for recommendations. Early adoption puts you in the conversation before competitors are even aware it exists.

How to fix it

This is optional at this stage. If you have a developer available, publishing a simple NLWeb or MCP discovery hint (a small metadata entry or well-known file) is a low-cost way to stay ahead of the curve as AI agents become a meaningful source of traffic.
