Q: What is WebMCP?
WebMCP is a browser standard that lets AI browsing agents call site functions directly using structured JSON instead of scraping raw HTML. It makes agent interactions faster, saves bandwidth, and keeps them from breaking when you change your forum theme styling.
Q: Does this slow down regular forum visitors?
No. The client-side script is under 10 KB minified, loads with defer, and only executes tool calls when an AI agent explicitly requests them. Human visitors will only notice a more stable page layout while ads and dynamic widgets load.
Q: Does this expose private or staff forums to AI agents?
No. All tool endpoints respect XenForo's built-in guest permissions. If an unregistered guest cannot view a node, thread, or marketplace listing, an AI agent cannot view it either.
Q: Do I need to modify my custom theme or third-party add-ons?
No. The add-on works through standard XenForo template modifications and client-side observers. You do not need to touch core templates or edit third-party add-on files.
Q: How do I test my forum's compliance?
You can run Google PageSpeed Insights or Chrome DevTools Lighthouse on your forum URL and inspect the Agentic Browsing Audits category.
