Ora's one-line summary: Trafigura has solid crawler access, sitemap, and structured data, but lacks WebMCP support for agents to interact with its site.
What an assistant meets at the door
Before an assistant can read, compare or buy, it has to get in. These rows are the door: whether the bot shield lets the main agents through, what robots.txt tells the search, training and user-triggered agents, and whether the home page has text without running JavaScript.
| Check | Result | What Ora saw |
|---|---|---|
| Not blocked by bot detection | Pass, 2 of 2 | Site accessible to 4 agent user-agents (ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot, Claude-User, PerplexityBot). |
| Agent crawler reachability | Pass, 1 of 1 | Reachable to every agent we tested - ChatGPT-User: reachable, OAI-SearchBot: reachable, Claude-User: reachable, PerplexityBot: reachable |
| robots.txt AI crawler policy | Pass, 1 of 1 | AI search crawlers: allowed in 3 of 3 checks (3 crawlers on 1 page). AI training crawlers: allowed in 2 of 2 checks (2 crawlers on 1 page), not scored. |
| robots.txt agent-user policy | Pass, 1 of 1 | No applicable crawl or usage restriction found for 3 user-triggered agents (chatgpt-user, claude-user, perplexity-user) on 1 public page: https://trafigura.com/. Declared policy only; |
| Content without JavaScript | Partial, 3.33 of 5 | Homepage: 3621 chars with H1, but heading hierarchy skips H2 to H6. 5 of 5 sampled inner pages have text without JavaScript. |
| Homepage not hidden from search | Pass, 1 of 1 | No noindex on the homepage: no robots, googlebot or bingbot meta tag and no X-Robots-Tag header hides it from search. |
What it can read, and what it can do
The reading layer is what an assistant takes away from the pages: a text file written for it, markdown on request, structured data about the company, a sitemap. The act layer is whether it can do anything through a published interface rather than by clicking through the site.
| Check | Result | What Ora saw |
|---|---|---|
| llms.txt exists | Fail, 0 of 1 | No llms.txt found at https://trafigura.com/llms.txt. Publish it at the site root, where agents that follow the llms.txt spec look for it. |
| llms.txt formatting | Fail, 0 of 2 | No llms.txt found to evaluate quality |
| Markdown agent docs | Fail, 0 of 1 | Missing markdown content negotiation. Homepage returned text/html when probed with Accept: text/markdown (expected text/markdown), and none of the well-known root paths (/llms.md, /auth.md, /agents.md, /developers.md). |
| Bot-UA markdown serving | Fail, 0 of 1 | No probed bot User-Agent (ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User) receives markdown when requesting HTML. Optional: detect AI-bot UAs server-side and serve them a markdown representation directly. |
| JSON-LD structured data | Pass, 2 of 2 | Rich JSON-LD identity: Organization with name, description, url, and sameAs/logo/address (1 block(s)) |
| Organization schema completeness | Partial, 0.5 of 1 | Organization schema found but missing: contactPoint, address |
| Sitemap exists | Pass, 1 of 1 | Valid sitemap found at https://www.trafigura.com/sitemap.xml with 1289 entries |
| Metadata completeness | Pass, 1 of 1 | All metadata signals present: canonical URL, lang="en-US", og:image, og:type |
| Page token budget | Pass, 1 of 1 | All 6 measured pages fit an agent context budget (largest ~2K tokens) |

Three fixes to hand to the web team
Ora estimates how many points each open check would return. These are the largest on this read, in Ora's words where it gave them, so a leader can hand the list over without translating it.
- WebMCP support, worth about 17.8 points by Ora's estimate: No WebMCP support detected - no document.modelContext / navigator.modelContext usage found (scanned 1 of 1 same-origin script bundle(s) for modelContext registrations).
- Product + docs MCP coverage, worth about 4.4 points by Ora's estimate: This bonus needs two MCP servers: one for your product so agents can take actions, and a separate one for your documentation so agents can answer questions from your docs.
- ARD discovery, worth about 3.7 points by Ora's estimate: No /.well-known/ard.json, no same-site rel="ard" link, and no legacy /.well-known/ai-catalog.json.
Our read
Trafigura's site is easy for an agent to find and read, and gives it nothing to do. The door is open: all four test agents reached the home page, robots.txt allowed the AI search crawlers in 3 of 3 checks, and nothing restricts the agents a user sends. What they can read is in good order: a sitemap of 1,289 entries, complete metadata, an Organization block with name, description, url and sameAs, and text without JavaScript on all 5 sampled inner pages, though the home page headings jump from H2 to H6. There is no llms.txt. Discovery reads 5 of 6. The act layer is where the score stops: an OpenID Connect endpoint answers, but there is neither a public API nor a developer portal, and no MCP server; Usability reads 6 of 15. For a trading house the agents that matter most are the ones reading about it, and those are well served. A C at 56, with WebMCP alone worth about 18 points.
