# Engie against the checklist: the 360 agent-readiness check

360 check, 9 November 2026. Engie is the French energy group in gas, power and services.

Engie scores 49 of 100 on Ora's agent-readiness scan, a C, read 9 November 2026. At the door, site accessible to 4 agent user-agents (ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot, Claude-User, PerplexityBot). 7 of the 22 checklist rows with an Ora check are met. A readable corporate site whose only developer tool builds its design system.

On 9 November 2026 the public site at engie.com scored **49 of 100** on [Ora's](https://ora.ai/?utm_source=agentreadychecklist.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=check) agent-readiness scan, a C. Ora probes a site the way an agent would: it requests pages with the agents' own user agents, reads robots.txt, looks for the files agents read, and tries the API, MCP and payment surfaces. Below, each of the 31 checklist rows is read against the Ora checks the [crosswalk](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ora-checks/) names for it, so the result says which requirements this company meets, not only how many points it scored. Ora's one-line summary: ENGIE has a discoverable web presence and crawler-friendly robots.txt and sitemap, but lacks an OpenAPI spec and any publicly reachable API surface for agents.

## The score

| Layer | Points | Share | What the layer asks |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Discovery | 9 of 15 | 60% | Can agents find and recommend it |
| Access | 29 of 54 | 54% | Can agents read it |
| Usability | 22 of 54 | 41% | Can agents use it |
| Payments | 0 of 0 | none apply | Can agents pay |
| Total | 49 of 100 | 49% | Grade C |

## Row by row

A row is met when every Ora check the crosswalk names for it passes, not met when every one fails, and partly when the checks disagree or one is partial. A row with no Ora check in the catalogue, or whose checks did not apply to this site, is marked as such; the [Verify Kit](https://agentreadychecklist.com/kit/) tests those by hand.

## The fixes worth most points

Ora attaches an estimate to each failing or partial check: how many points the site would gain by passing it. These are the 5 with the largest estimates for Engie, each tied to the checklist row whose recipes cover it.

Public API with reachable endpoints

Fail, 0 of 7, about 5.8 points to gain. Ora saw: No publicly reachable API surface detected (REST and GraphQL both absent or auth-gated). No checklist row names this check.

MCP server / manifest

Fail, 0 of 6, about 4.9 points to gain. Ora saw: No MCP server or manifest found. Row [AR-ACT-03](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-03/), MCP over Streamable HTTP.

Developer resource discoverability

Fail, 0 of 3, about 4.4 points to gain. Ora saw: In a search for your API docs, none of the 10 results is your official docs. No checklist row names this check.

OpenAPI spec published

Fail, 0 of 7, about 4.3 points to gain. Ora saw: No OpenAPI/Swagger specification found. Row [AR-ACT-02](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-02/), OpenAPI contract.

WebMCP support

Fail, 0 of 5, about 4.1 points to gain. Ora saw: No WebMCP support detected - no document.modelContext / navigator.modelContext usage found (scanned 6 of 6 same-origin script bundle(s) for modelContext registrations). Row [AR-ACT-07](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-07/), WebMCP tools.

## Our read

Engie is open and nearly complete on the reading side. All four test agents reached the home page, robots.txt allows the AI search and training crawlers, five of five sampled pages read with real text, the sitemap index is valid, and the JSON-LD Organization is missing only its description. The home page gives 3,253 characters and no H1, which with the missing llms.txt accounts for most of what the Access layer leaves on the table. On the act layer Ora found a CLI package on npm, @engie-group/fluid-cli, which is the tooling for the group's design system rather than an interface to its services, and a developer portal at /dashboard that is a login page; there is neither a public API nor an OpenAPI specification, and neither an MCP server nor OAuth. For a utility that sells energy contracts to millions of households, the gap that matters is on the act side, and nothing on the corporate domain points an agent to it.

## Verify your own site

The scan above is free and needs no account: enter a domain at [ora.ai](https://ora.ai/?utm_source=agentreadychecklist.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=check) and read the same four layers for your own site, then take each failing row to its recipe on this site. The command below runs the same audit from a terminal and exits with 1 under the score you set, so it can gate a deploy. Payments did not apply to this company; a site that sells is read on that layer too. [Why Ora, and its limits](https://agentreadychecklist.com/verify-with-ora/).
