You publish files for machines to read, but nothing that tells one how to become a customer.

None of the nine known agent entry paths answered, including /agent-signup.md and /.well-known/agent-access.json. Reading is solved on your site; joining is not.

This is the whole list: everything we could measure and you do not pass. Another 2 points sit behind checks we could not evaluate on your domain, and each of those lines below says what would make it measurable.

Agent entry pointan afternoon · +2
Publish /agent-signup.md: the path from nothing to a working key, written as steps for a machine rather than a tour for a person. Ours is at /agent-signup.md if you want a worked example, and it says plainly that we have nothing to sign up for.

Then, when you have room

OAuth dynamic client registration a project · +1Publish OAuth authorization server metadata with an RFC 7591 registration_endpoint in it. It is the only standard way an agent registers itself without a human.
MCP surface a project · +1Wrap your top three API calls in an MCP server and declare it at /.well-known/mcp.json.
Signup reachable without a browser a project · +1Let https://cloud.temporal.io render its form in server HTML and stop refusing non-browser requests to it.

5 of the checks an agent depends on, temporal.io does not pass.

None of this tells you whether an agent picked you

Everything above is a file an agent could read. Whether one actually chose you is a different measurement, and we have not run it on temporal.io. What we have run it on is a rich text editor vendor: six agents, one brief, six isolated copies of a real codebase. All six picked the same competitor, and the vendor being studied was never named, not even on a rejection list, while the runs named and dismissed ten alternatives between them. In an earlier round, run before we isolated the copies, it was named twice and struck off both times in four words: Fully commercial, licence key required. That study is about them, not about you. It is here because it is the difference between a file and a decision.

Every check

Each line is one HTTP observation with a published rule, so you can rerun any of them yourself. Most are the same tomorrow if you are: the two that are not are the bot gate and the pricing page, which answer inconsistently on their own, which is why those run more than once and say so when the tries disagreed. PASS and PART are counted. UNMEASURED means we could not evaluate it, N/A means it does not apply to a product like yours, and neither is in the score or its denominator. See the formula

B · Agent entry

FAIL
Agent entry pointNone of the 9 known agent entry paths returns a file rather than your page shellA markdown file written for a machine turns a guessing game into a procedure it can follow.
FAIL
OAuth dynamic client registrationNo OAuth metadata on any of the 9 hosts probed, including the usual auth and api subdomainsRFC 7591 is the only standard path by which an agent can register itself without a human.
FAIL
MCP surfaceNo MCP surface: nothing answered at mcp.temporal.io, mcp.temporal.io/mcp, mcp.temporal.io/v1/mcp, api.temporal.io/mcp, /mcp or /api/mcp, and no file mentions MCPAn MCP server turns your API from something an agent reads about into something it can call.

C · Registration

UNMEASURED
No CAPTCHA in the signup HTMLUnmeasurable: the signup form at https://cloud.temporal.io is not in the server HTML, so its gates are not eitherServer-render the form, or tell us the endpoint it posts to, and the gates become visible to us and to an agent.
FAIL
Signup reachable without a browserhttps://cloud.temporal.io is reachable, but its form needs JavaScriptIf a bare HTTP request gets a 403, the agent never sees the form at all.

D · Provisioning

PASS
Programmatic key provisioning4 of 7 provisioning phrases across the 7 documents we read: "management api", "account api", "create an api key (or api token, access token, personal access token, service account, auth token, secret key), next to something programmatic", "service account"
PASS
Free tier or no-card trial stated in textFree tier or no-card signals at https://temporal.io/pricing: "free trial", "Get started for free", "started for free"
