Add WebMCP integration to boost Agentic Browsing score

Background

A Lighthouse audit of the template app shows a low Agentic Browsing score. Two of the three weighted audits have been addressed:

  • agent-accessibility-tree — fixed by labeling the dark-mode toggle on the AI-crawling-improvements branch.
  • llms-txt — still missing at site root (separate follow-up).
  • cumulative-layout-shift — already passing.

That gets us to ~65/100. To push the score higher and signal that the site is actively agent-friendly, we can adopt WebMCP, which Lighthouse measures via three currently-N/A audits:

  • webmcp-registered-tools — Lists the WebMCP tools registered at the time of analysis.
  • webmcp-form-coverage — Annotates forms so AI agents can identify and interact with them reliably.
  • webmcp-schema-validity — Validates the registered WebMCP schemas.

What to do

  1. Decide which user actions in the template app are worth exposing as WebMCP tools (likely candidates: create demo task, generate AI schedule, upload file, navigate to pricing/checkout).
  2. Register those tools with valid JSON schemas.
  3. Annotate the main forms (login, signup, demo task input, file upload, contact) with WebMCP metadata.
  4. Re-run Lighthouse and confirm the three WebMCP audits move from N/A → PASS, lifting the Agentic Browsing score.

Scope

Lift only — does not block the existing AI-crawling-improvements work. Best handled as a standalone PR after the dark-mode + llms.txt fixes land.
