I want these too, but I think an AI agent would be content with getting served a markdown file with curl commands to run.

If you're optimizing your site for AI, the AI wants: - A fast Time to First Byte (200-500ms). - Server-rendered HTML - Lightweight markup - A valid accessibility tree - Layout stability - Captions and alt text - No stupid CAPTCHAs Sound familiar? That's the same stuff that human users want too.

It depends. An agent might be taking screenshots or completing forms. I don't love adding new surfaces just for AI when I can avoid it. There's always potential for drift.
