Why it is in this group
- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
Description, as the server wrote it Check which AI crawlers a site allows, restricts or blocks in robots.txt, what that means for each AI platform and the search index it reads, where to submit pages, whether a security challenge answers an ordinary request, homepage noindex, llms.txt and Content-Signal, with copy-ready fixes. Reads the site's public files and one ordinary page request; firewall rules keyed to crawlers' own IP addresses are not visible.

surfacedby_analyze_answer_evidenceCheck one AI answer the user pasted: whether it cites the business with a link, names it without one, or leaves it out.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "surfacedby_analyze_answer_evidence" says "analyze": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Check one AI answer the user pasted: whether it cites the business with a link, names it without one, or leaves it out. Classifies every cited source, such as review sites, best-of lists, forums, competitors and the business's own pages, reads Google and Gemini redirect links to the pages they point to, summarizes which source types dominate, and gives the likely reason and fix when the business is not cited. Runs no AI queries of its own.

Why it is in this group
- The name "surfacedby_get_ai_source_landscape" says "get": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Show, for each AI platform, the mix of source types it cites, recent shifts in specific sources and how its answers cite, from SurfacedBy's published AI Search Index, with the data date, the public page and related research findings with links. Rates are pooled across many brands and describe each platform, not any one business.
Annotations the server declares

- destructiveHint: false
- idempotentHint: true
- openWorldHint: true
surfacedby_inspect_page_evidenceRead up to five public pages the way an AI crawler receives them, without running JavaScript.No findings
Why it is in this group
- The name "surfacedby_inspect_page_evidence" says "inspect": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Read up to five public pages the way an AI crawler receives them, without running JavaScript. Returns sourced sections, table cells, internal and outside links and declared structured data, plus each page's type, source type and readiness findings with the documentation behind them, repeated declared facts to review, and the remaining request budget. Partial or unreadable pages are reported as such. Runs no AI queries and measures no visibility.

Why it is in this group
- The description's first verb is "return": a word for reading.
Description, as the server wrote it Return the ordered checklist for an AI visibility audit of a business website: each step, the tools for it, the quality bar for the result, the rules to follow, the published research findings that apply to the goal, and the remaining request budget. Makes no request to the website.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
