Agent Readiness Scanner – Check if a repo is ready for coding agents (github.com)

The newly announced Agent Readiness Scanner is a tool designed to evaluate GitHub repositories for compatibility with AI coding agents like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Codex. It assesses repositories based on specific criteria essential for AI agents to function effectively, such as having a test suite, documented run commands, and governance files like AGENTS.md. The scanner provides a readiness score from 0 to 100 within three seconds and generates any missing configuration files automatically, ensuring that repositories are appropriately structured to prevent AI agents from making erroneous changes. This tool is significant for the AI/ML community as it addresses a common challenge: ensuring that repositories are set up correctly for autonomous development. By pinpointing structural deficiencies that could lead to token burn or detrimental code alterations, it fosters trust in AI-assisted development workflows. The scanner operates locally with no network dependencies, enhancing security and privacy for developers using AI coding agents, making it particularly valuable for engineering teams and AI agent workflow builders looking to streamline their development processes while upholding governance principles.
