Re:Show HN: A free 16-point check for how AI assistants see your website

This seems like it could be very useful, but I'm not sold on the value-add being offered by this service. How is this better than asking my own AI agent to check this and make the fixes itself?
Re:Show HN: Specification First Agentic Development Plugin and Prove

I think both can be true: as coding languages go from lower to higher level, they go from being more implementation-like (e.g. assembly, C) to being more spec-like (e.g. Rust, Haskell). It then follows that writing a good spec could be considered coding if your compiler (or agent) can reliably turn that spec into your desired output.
So the main challenge I see with this approach is getting the spec right. Too little detail and the output is uncontrolled, too much detail and you're adding too many constraints (and you may be better off just writing code). From my experience, agents haven't been the best at writing good specs. But maybe this project can help with that?
