# Access

This page describes how to authenticate to Agent Ready Checkout. The short answer: you do not. Every page and file is public, no credential exists, and nothing is gated.

## Discover

Start at `/llms.txt` or `/agents.md`. There is no authorization server, no protected-resource metadata and no OAuth endpoint, because there is nothing to protect.

## Pick a method

One method: an ordinary request with no credential. Pages and files take GET. The MCP server at `/mcp` takes JSON-RPC over POST, and the REST API under `/api/v1/` and the NLWeb endpoint at `/ask` take GET, or POST with a JSON body. Send `Accept: text/markdown` for markdown, or fetch the `index.md` twin of any page.

## Register

No registration. There are no accounts, API keys, client IDs or sign-up forms.

## Claim

Nothing to claim. No resource is owned by a user, and no page is personalised.

## Exchange

No token is issued, so nothing is exchanged. The site publishes no OAuth metadata (no `/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server`, no `/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource`) because it has no authorization server: no endpoint, the MCP server and the API included, takes a token or a key. The machine-readable form of this statement is `security: []` with no security schemes in `/openapi.json`. No request needs a header beyond an honest User-Agent, which we ask you to send.

## Use

Fetch pages, the markdown twins, `/llms-full.txt`, the feed and the datasets under `/data/` freely, or query the same rows through `/mcp`, `/api/v1/` and `/ask` as `/developers` describes. The site takes no payments.

## Errors

A missing path returns HTTP 404 with the site's 404 page; under `/api` the 404 is JSON with a code, a message and a hint. There is no 401 or 403 from this site's own content. A 403 you see comes from a network between you and the host, not from a rule here. The API and the MCP server allow 120 requests a minute per address, announced in RateLimit headers, and a 429 carries Retry-After; wait that long and try again.

## Revocation

Nothing to revoke, because nothing is issued. If you send us a message at editor@agentreadycheckout.com we keep it only to answer you and log corrections; ask us to delete it and we will.
