## Check Results

### API Design

- [pass] Security & governance hygiene — Code is formatter-clean with zero linter errors and zero style warnings. Investigated: sdk 100%, wellknown 0%.
- [fail] Schema coverage & depth — no .d.ts found. Investigated: sdk 0%.
- [fail] Example coverage — No code samples detected across 1 sampled docs pages, so a coding agent gets no ready-to-use examples. Investigated: docs 0%, sdk 0%.
- [skip] Machine-readable, versioned contract — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Auth declared & discoverable — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.

### Developer Experience

- [fail] Self-service developer portal — No self-service signup detected — no signup link on the homepage or docs, and no conventional signup path (/signup, /sign-up, /register, /get-started, /console/signup, /dashboard/signup, /try, /try-free, /free, /free-trial, /start, /start-free, /join, /create-account, /account/signup, /auth/signup, /users/sign_up) resolved — so an agent can't onboard on its own. Investigated: docs 0%.
- [fail] Quickstart present — No quickstart or getting-started page found at the conventional docs paths, so new developers and agents have no obvious first step. Investigated: docs 0%.
- [fail] Code samples in docs — No code samples detected across 1 sampled docs pages, so a coding agent gets no ready-to-use examples. Investigated: docs 0%.
- [skip] Description completeness — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Changelog published — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.

### Agent Discovery

- [warn] Docs reachable, not hard auth-gated — Server ignores Accept: text/markdown header (0/1 pages return markdown). Investigated: docs 75%.
- [warn] Registry & SDK presence — 2/4 registry-metadata components present; missing: description, repository link. Investigated: sdk 50%, docs 0%, cli 0%.
- [warn] Crawlable / AEO — No sitemap found via robots.txt or /sitemap.xml on the docs host, so AI search engines have no crawl map for your docs. Investigated: wellknown 50%.
- [fail] llms.txt present, valid & comprehensive — No llms.txt found at any candidate location (https://developer.ctrip.com/llms.txt, https://developer.ctrip.com/docs/llms.txt). Investigated: docs 0%.

### Agent Understanding

- [warn] Agent-navigable, token-efficient docs — 1 of 1 pages appear to be client-side rendered SPA shells (__next detected); agents using HTTP fetches will see no content. Investigated: docs 71%.
- [warn] Agent instructions file (AGENTS.md) — No agents.md or skill.md context file found (nice-to-have for agent operation). Investigated: sdk 50%, wellknown 0%.
- [fail] Docs structured data — No JSON-LD or OpenGraph/meta tags found across 1 assessed pages (1 JS-rendered), so answer engines have nothing to cite. Investigated: docs 0%.
- [skip] Machine-readable errors (RFC 9457) — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Operation purpose clarity — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Description consistency across surfaces — Only 0 surface description(s) with ≥6 tokens available; need at least 2 to compare.

### Agent Usability

- [fail] Runnable collection with test scripts — No README found. Investigated: sdk 0%, platform 0%.
- [skip] Idempotency documented — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Rate-limit signaling — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Pagination documented & consistent — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.
- [skip] Sandbox separation — No surface produced evidence for this capability in this run.

## Executive Summary

Ctrip's API program shows its strongest footing in crawlability and basic discoverability, but it has critical gaps in two areas that directly block partner adoption: onboarding and agent-readiness. There is no self-service signup, no quickstart, no code samples, no typed SDK surface, and no machine-readable discovery layer — meaning partners cannot get started without a sales conversation, and AI agents cannot reliably find, understand, or execute against the APIs. Closing the onboarding and agent-readiness gaps in that order will have the largest impact on partner program growth and autonomous integration.
