Scored as a business of unknown kind; tell us yours.
Can an AI agent…
- Message the business?
- No
- Book?
- No
- Sign a person up?
- No
- Cancel a booking or an order?
- No
auravms.com offers agents a way to order; we found no way to change, cancel or track it afterwards.
The biggest step: Let agents send you a message (+14).
Track record
A track record appears once the business's inbox sends signed receipts to this network. How receipts work
What's missing
-
Let agents send you a message (+14 points)
Add send_message to your MCP server, or publish an A2A agent card at /.well-known/agent-card.json.
Guide
More
A customer's assistant can ask you a question and come back for your answer, instead of telling them to call.
Publish a door that takes messages: an A2A agent card, a send_message tool on an MCP server, or an agent inbox.
What counts: send_message, contact, ask_question, create_support_ticket, POST /messages. An agent inbox, an A2A agent card, or a tool that sends you a message or opens a support ticket, on an MCP server of your own or one your UCP profile declares as a service. Email, phone, forms and chat widgets are made for people, so they don't count.
-
Publish your terms for machines (+5 points)
Write your cancellation, deposit and no-show terms in one plain sentence next to the booking or order button, and on the policy page your footer links to.
Guide
More
Agents check the terms before they commit their person.
What counts: get_policies. MerchantReturnPolicy markup, or a policy page linked from your pages that states its terms in words, such as "free cancellation up to 24 hours before".
-
Let agents pay (+14 points)
Ask your payment provider whether it takes agent payments (a token the person approves, which the agent passes on without seeing a card), and declare it on your own door: in UCP, as a payment handler.
A quick partial step: add paymentAccepted to your business markup, and say in words on your booking or order page how payment happens.
Guide
More
An assistant that knows how payment works can tell its person what happens next; one that can pay finishes the job.
Ask your payment provider whether it takes agent payments (a token the person approves, which the agent passes on without seeing a card), and declare it on a door of your own. Until then, a link to your own checkout counts partly.
What counts: UCP payment handlers, ACP delegated payment, AP2 or x402 on a door, or a pay or checkout tool. paymentAccepted in your markup, payment terms in words or a checkout link count partly.
-
Let agents see where an order or a booking stands (+10 points)
Add an order lookup by order number and email, such as get_order_status, on your MCP server or in your OpenAPI document.
Guide
More
An assistant asked where an order is can answer at once, instead of sending its person to search their email.
Add an order lookup by order number and email, such as get_order_status, on a door of your own.
What counts: get_order_status, track_order, order_status, lookup_order, GET /orders/{id}/status. UCP order management, or a line in your llms.txt such as "Order lookup API: POST https://…/orders/lookup".
-
Let agents change a booking or an order (+8 points)
Add reschedule_booking or update_order next to the tool that creates the booking or the order.
Guide
More
Plans change; if an agent can't move a booking or change an order, the customer has to call, or cancels.
Add a tool such as reschedule_booking or update_order on the door that takes the booking or the order.
What counts: reschedule_booking, update_booking, change_reservation, update_order, modify_order, PATCH /bookings/{id}, PATCH /orders/{id}. An inbox that takes bookings or orders.
llms.txt
Found and readable: https://www.auravms.com/llms.txt.
Through it we found 3 doors for agents we hadn't found another way; it names 17 more we couldn't use.
Each door it names
- An MCP server (×2): it answered.
- An API: it answered.
- An API: we couldn't use it; we ran out of time before we reached it.
- An API (×2): we couldn't use it; it isn't the kind of door the line says.
- An MCP server: we couldn't use it; we ran out of time before we reached it.
- An MCP server: we couldn't use it; it turned the request away.
- An MCP server: we couldn't use it; it's on another site, which our check doesn't read; declare it when you claim your listing.
- An OpenAPI document: we couldn't use it; we ran out of time before we reached it.
- An order lookup (×9): we couldn't use it; we ran out of time before we reached it.
- An order lookup: we couldn't use it; it isn't the kind of door the line says.
An llms.txt helps an assistant read about a business; on its own it opens no door to ask, book or order, so it earns no points. What llms.txt does, and doesn't · The llms.txt checker

This is not a certification: it is what our crawler read on auravms.com's own site and doors on 2026-10-24, scored by the published rules. Nobody can pay for a score or a place.
Evidence: declared — the business's own site or door says so; tested — our own read of its door saw it listed in the 7 days before this check. We have not tried it.
