Written walkthrough matching our Grok Bot Short: install Grok Bot, connect Robauto MCP, run Agent Scan on your domain — with checklist, JSON, and links to robauto.ai/scan and Learn.

**Answer in one line:** In three steps you can teach **Grok Bot** to scan any domain with Robauto — install Grok Bot, connect the Robauto MCP, then run [Agent Scan](https://robauto.ai/scan).

This written walkthrough matches our short tutorial video (_Grok Bot + Robauto: Install, MCP, Agent Scan_, ~24s). Use it when you want the same teaching goal with checklists and links you can paste into an agent.

## **Step 1 — Install Grok Bot**

Open **Grok Bot** on your desktop (install it first if this is a new machine). You want a desktop agent that can call tools — not just a browser chat window.

- Launch Grok Bot and sign in with the account you use for work sites.

- Confirm you can start a new chat and that tool / connector settings are reachable.

## **Step 2 — Connect Robauto MCP**

[MCP (Model Context Protocol)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) is how assistants attach to tools without you pasting one-off URLs every time. Robauto publishes a public MCP surface so Grok Bot can call Agent Scan, network data, and related tools.

- In Grok Bot, add / connect the **Robauto** MCP connector (endpoint documented at [mcp.robauto.ai](https://mcp.robauto.ai) and in [robauto.ai/llms.txt](https://robauto.ai/llms.txt)).

- Approve access when prompted so the agent can run read-only scans.

- Sanity check: ask Grok Bot to list Robauto tools — you should see scan / network helpers.

Deeper context on what MCP is: [Robauto Learn — MCP](https://robauto.ai/learn/ai-agents/9) and [Anthropic’s MCP announcement](https://www.anthropic.com/news/model-context-protocol).

## **Step 3 — Run Agent Scan on your domain**

Tell Grok Bot to run **Agent Scan** on your domain (for example: “Scan example.com with Robauto Agent Scan”). Or open the human UI:

[→ robauto.ai/scan](https://robauto.ai/scan)

- Agent Scan runs 25 read-only checks across Signal Basics, Technical Groundwork, Agent Integration, and Agentic Commerce.

- You get a 0–100 score plus gaps (robots.txt, llms.txt, MCP card, commerce rails, and more).

- Scores cap at 90 without a verified Robauto pixel — the scan response explains how to verify.

Why this matters: Robauto’s public Agent Readiness Index still shows most heavily visited sites clustering near a median in the teens — agents visit, but few sites are fully agent-ready. Start with a scan, then close the gaps. Index: [robauto.ai/agent-readiness-index](https://robauto.ai/agent-readiness-index).

## **Watch the Short**

The matching vertical tutorial (~24 seconds) walks the same three beats: Install → MCP → Agent Scan, ending on **robauto.ai/scan**. Pair this post with that video when you share the walkthrough in chat or socials.

## **What to do next**

- Run [Agent Scan](https://robauto.ai/scan) on your primary domain today.

- Fix Signal Basics first (HTTPS, robots, sitemap, llms.txt, readable HTML).

- Continue with [AI Agents on Robauto Learn](https://robauto.ai/learn/ai-agents), then [AI Search (AEO/GEO)](https://robauto.ai/learn/ai-search-aeo).

## **Bottom line**

Grok Bot becomes useful for your site the moment it can call Robauto. Connect the MCP, run Agent Scan, and use the score as a build backlog — not a vanity metric. Start here: [https://robauto.ai/scan](https://robauto.ai/scan).

## Where can an agent get this data live?

**Robauto MCP — Agent Intelligence & Brand Discovery Infrastructure.** A public, stateless Streamable HTTP endpoint at `https://mcp.robauto.ai/mcp`, callable with no key. Setup and the full tool list are in the [Robauto MCP directory](https://robauto.ai/mcp-directory).
