Let Agents In

Agent readiness · Maps and geocoding

7 of 11 measurable points under formula 9.2, measured on 2026-08-12. 15 checks exist; each is one HTTP request with a published rule, so every sentence below can be rerun and argued with. 3 of them could not be measured from where we ask, and those are left out of the denominator rather than counted as failures.

A · Discovery

  • PASS
    Answers an agent user-agentAnswered 200 to LetAgentsIn/1.0 (+https://letagentsin.com/methodology)
  • PASS
    llms.txt publishedllms.txt present at https://docs.locationiq.com/llms.txt, and the 12 links we sampled across the file all answer
  • PASS
    Docs readable without JavaScript2,437 characters of text without JS
  • PASS
    On-demand agents not blockedNo on-demand agent is blocked
  • N/A
    Paths robots.txt points at answerrobots.txt names no concrete path, only patterns or nothing, so there is no claim to check
  • PASS
    No punishing crawl delayNo Crawl-delay applies to the agents we check

B · Agent entry

  • UNMEASURED
    Agent entry pointUnmeasurable: 4 of the 9 known agent entry paths answered with a refusal rather than a file or a 404, so what you publish there is not something we measuredLet ordinary HTTP reach these paths and this becomes measurable.
  • FAIL
    OAuth dynamic client registrationNo OAuth metadata on any of the 9 hosts probed, including the usual auth and api subdomains
  • FAIL
    MCP surfaceNo MCP surface: nothing answered at mcp.locationiq.com, mcp.locationiq.com/mcp, mcp.locationiq.com/v1/mcp, api.locationiq.com/mcp, /mcp or /api/mcp, and no file mentions MCP

C · Registration

  • FAIL
    No CAPTCHA in the signup HTMLrecaptcha appears in the signup page's server HTML
  • PASS
    Signup reachable without a browserForm renders in server HTML at https://my.locationiq.com/register

D · Provisioning

  • UNMEASURED
    Programmatic key provisioningUnmeasurable: 3 documentation pages we selected did not answer (429, and a 429 is our own burst rather than an answer about agents), so nothing here is a finding about what you documentLet ordinary HTTP reach your documentation pages and this becomes measurable.
  • PASS
    Free tier or no-card trial stated in textFree tier or no-card signals at https://locationiq.com/pricing: "free tier", "free plan", "free account"

E · Integration

  • UNMEASURED
    Typed SDK on the registryUnmeasurable: we could not identify the package a developer installs to use you, from your site, your docs or a registry searchName your package once in your docs, or link it from your repository, and we stop guessing. If your product is not something a developer installs, this check does not apply to you: unmeasured is out of the score and out of the denominator, so it costs you nothing.
  • FAIL
    Machine-readable API descriptionNo OpenAPI spec at the 5 usual paths, none declared by https://docs.locationiq.com/docs/introduction, and no markdown negotiationPoint at your spec from your docs page with rel="service-desc" and an agent finds it without guessing.

Tell me when this changes

The failures here are the kind nobody notices. An edge rule that starts refusing agents changes nothing a person sees in a browser, so the first sign is usually an integration that quietly stopped working. We rescan weekly and write only when a verdict moves.

This page is the newest scan we hold for locationiq.com and changes when we rescan. It is not a judgement of the product: we measure whether an unattended run can get through, not whether the thing is any good. The whole corpus is published as JSON and CSV.
