The agentic web isn't coming, it's already here.
This week's issue is packed with practical ways to make sure your Astro sites are ready for it, covering fundamentals worth knowing and full site builds driven by AI agents.
Joost de Valk scored 25/100 on Cloudflare's agent-readiness checker and got to work. A practical, end-to-end guide to closing the gaps on an Astro blog, covering markdown content negotiation, llms.txt, and a server-side MCP endpoint.
Dailybot's CTO on migrating 700+ pages across three languages from Webflow to Astro in six weeks, and how non-engineers are now shipping directly to the codebase via agent-assisted PRs.
A new Astro integration that takes a bottom-up approach to LLM-readiness: per-page .md siblings, auto-generated llms.txt, link rel="alternate" injection, and HTTP content negotiation for markdown-preferring clients.
Sid Bharath rebuilt his WordPress blog as an Astro + MDX site with Claude Code, going from a PageSpeed score of 67 to a perfect 100 while completely rethinking how he writes and publishes content along the way.
A practical tutorial on building an Astro site optimised for Answer Engine Optimization, covering a live build of a custom llms.txt and the schema work that helps LLMs trust your content.
