How do I fix the mcp-server-card audit test in WebCare Pro Auditor?

Create a JSON manifest describing your public tools and capabilities. Host the file at https://yourdomain.com/.well-known/mcp.json. Ensure the endpoint serves Content-Type: application/json and allows CORS GET requests. Validate that tool inputSchema matches JSON Schema Draft-07 standards.

Technical Architecture & In-Depth Details

Making Your Platform Autonomous-Agent Ready

As AI systems evolve from simple chatbots into autonomous agents capable of performing multi-step tasks, they need standard discovery protocols to know what endpoints and tools are available.

Publishing /.well-known/mcp.json tells any compatible agent (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Agent SDKs) exactly how to authenticate, which tools are callable, and how to format requests safely.
