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

360 check, 9 November 2026. TotalEnergies is France's energy major, in oil, gas and renewables.

TotalEnergies scores 44 of 100 on Ora's agent-readiness scan, a D, read 9 November 2026. At the door, site accessible to 4 agent user-agents (ChatGPT-User, OAI-SearchBot, Claude-User, PerplexityBot). 8 of the 19 checklist rows with an Ora check are met. Markdown on request and a well-built home page, with a sitemap of two entries.

On 9 November 2026 the public site at totalenergies.com scored **44 of 100** on [Ora's](https://ora.ai/?utm_source=agentreadychecklist.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=check) agent-readiness scan, a D. 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.

## The score

| Layer | Points | Share | What the layer asks |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Discovery | 10 of 14 | 71% | Can agents find and recommend it |
| Access | 20 of 46 | 43% | Can agents read it |
| Usability | 12 of 40 | 30% | Can agents use it |
| Payments | 0 of 0 | none apply | Can agents pay |
| Total | 44 of 100 | 44% | Grade D |

## 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 TotalEnergies, each tied to the checklist row whose recipes cover it.

Public API with reachable endpoints

Fail, 0 of 7, about 7.8 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 6.7 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.

WebMCP support

Fail, 0 of 5, about 5.6 points to gain. Ora saw: No WebMCP support detected - no document.modelContext / navigator.modelContext usage found (scanned 1 of 1 same-origin script bundle(s) for modelContext registrations). Row [AR-ACT-07](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-07/), WebMCP tools.

OpenAPI spec published

Fail, 0 of 7, about 5.1 points to gain. Ora saw: No OpenAPI/Swagger specification found. Row [AR-ACT-02](https://agentreadychecklist.com/checklist/ar-act-02/), OpenAPI contract.

Developer resource discoverability

Fail, 0 of 3, about 4.8 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.

## Our read

TotalEnergies returns markdown when an agent asks for it with an Accept header, a row only one other company in this series passes, and its home page reads well: 3,705 characters at a 6.1 percent text ratio with a full heading tree. The door is open to all four agent user agents, robots.txt allows the search and training crawlers, and the sitemap is valid, though it lists two entries, so the scan found no inner page to sample. There is no JSON-LD and no llms.txt. The act layer is where the D is earned: no publicly reachable API, and neither a developer portal nor an OpenAPI specification, neither an MCP server nor OAuth discovery, the four largest estimates on the page at about 25 points; a documentation link on the home page resolves to nothing machine-readable. The domain ranks second for its natural gas term. A company that already serves markdown has done the hard row; the Organization block and the text file are the easy ones.

## 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/).
