# Agent Score Fix Report — Docker URL: https://docs.docker.com Score: 89/100 (Grade B) I need help improving the AI-readiness of the documentation at https://docs.docker.com. Agent Score found 3 failing checks and 2 warnings. ## Failing Checks (3) - [content-discoverability] Llms Txt Directive Md: No llms.txt directive found in markdown of any of 10 sampled pages - [observability] Llms Txt Coverage: llms.txt covers 39/1655 sitemap doc pages (2%); 1616 missing - [observability] Markdown Content Parity: 7 of 10 pages have substantive content differences between markdown and HTML (avg 37% missing) ## Warnings (2) - [content-discoverability] Llms Txt Directive Html: llms.txt directive found in HTML of 10 of 10 sampled pages, but buried deep in the page (past 50%) - [page-size] Page Size Html: 9 of 10 sampled pages convert to 50K–100K chars (max 498K HTML → 85K markdown (84% boilerplate)) ## Fix Instructions For each issue above, please: 1. Analyze the documentation site at https://docs.docker.com 2. Implement the specific fix 3. Verify the fix would cause the check to pass ### Common fixes: - **No llms.txt**: Create /llms.txt following https://llmstxt.org — list all doc pages in markdown format - **No .md URL support**: Configure your docs platform to serve pages at equivalent .md URLs (e.g. /docs/quickstart.md) - **No content negotiation**: Return markdown when request includes Accept: text/markdown header - **Large page size**: Reduce nav boilerplate, inline scripts, and repetitive markup - **No sitemap**: Generate /sitemap.xml listing all documentation URLs - **Auth walls**: Ensure docs pages return 200 without requiring login cookies or tokens - **No Last-Modified header**: Configure your server/CDN to include Last-Modified response headers - **Tab content hidden**: Ensure tabbed content is rendered in the HTML (not JS-only) so agents can read all variants ## Run afdocs Locally for More Detail To get deeper visibility into what's failing, run afdocs against your docs: npx afdocs check https://docs.docker.com --fixes --verbose - **--fixes**: Adds "Fix:" lines to the output for each warn/fail check with actionable remediation steps - **-v, --verbose**: Shows per-page details (specific URLs, character counts, error codes) for checks with issues — useful for per-URL visibility into what's failing
