AI crawler audit
18 of 18 AI user-agents reached the homepage.
9 of 18 were tested with the operator's published user-agent string and the rest with the bare token, since no published string was found. A request that only names a user-agent does not prove the real crawler would be treated the same.

This is Shopify's Global Catalog - the index AI shopping agents read, not your live page. Price and stock update in real time; other fields lag a re-ingest. The inferred fields above come from Shopify's pipeline and cannot be edited or overridden directly - you only influence them by improving your source product data.

Make barkershoes.com agent-ready on Shopify
barkershoes.com runs on Shopify, which does not expose MCP or an A2A card out of the box. Add them through an app or a headless route at /.well-known/mcp.json and /.well-known/agent.json, and confirm the theme renders brand content in the no-JavaScript HTML. Start with Webmcp.
Frequently asked questions
Are these real probes or AI guesses?
Real probes. We fetch the actual files, run a real MCP initialize handshake, and validate A2A cards against their schema. No model decides the result.
Does barkershoes.com need every standard to pass?
No. Start with the highest-impact gap above, then add the rest. Most sites win the most by shipping a working MCP endpoint and keeping the crawler path clean.
