Agent readiness · Transactional email APIs

9 of 14 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. 1 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
- PASSAnswers an agent user-agentAnswered 200 to LetAgentsIn/1.0 (+https://letagentsin.com/methodology)

- PASSNo punishing crawl delayNo Crawl-delay applies to the agents we check
B · Agent entry
- UNMEASUREDAgent entry pointUnmeasurable: 8 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.

- FAILMCP surfaceMCP mentioned 2x in your own files, but nothing answered at mcp.mailgun.com, mcp.mailgun.com/mcp, mcp.mailgun.com/v1/mcp, api.mailgun.com/mcp, /mcp or /api/mcp

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 mailgun.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.
