This page shows the same machinery applied to this very site. ## One article, three representations Every blog article here is published in three forms from a single source: - **Human HTML** — the page you read: [/blog/arc-c29-task-board FOR AI AGENTS block — a visible summary on the same page (summary, status, concepts, actions, machine-readable links). No hidden markup — agents read what you read. Knowledge Object (JSON) — the same metadata as a machine-readable object: /blog/arc-c29-task-board.json Claims carry statuses (VERIFIED / UNVERIFIED) and evidence links; actions point at things an agent can actually do. The HTML page links the JSON variant via rel="alternate", and this page does the same for itself: /agent-readiness.json. ## Self-scan — our scanner on our own site scanned 2026-10-21T23:18:33.222Z · refresh ↻](https://agentbadge.xyz/blog/arc-c29-task-board) Target: `https://agentbadge.xyz` — score **69.55/100** (D). 118 of 156 rules passed, 25 need attention, 12 not applicable.
