This is a submission for the Google I/O Writing Challenge
A 100-line recipe for making a React site agent-ready, with the diff, the new Lighthouse Agentic Browsing audit results, and what is coming next.
1. The hook
At Google I/O 2026, Matias mentioned, on the way to a different demo, that Google's Modern Web Guidance lifts coding-agent pass rates on web-development tasks by 37 percentage points versus unguided coding. He said it once and moved on, but the number stuck with me. Underneath that single statistic is the most actionable web-platform shift of the year: the "agent-ready web." I wanted to know what it actually takes to make a real site agent-ready, so I built a small React demo, added three new files plus a handful of HTML attributes, and ran the new Lighthouse Agentic Browsing audit.
About a hundred lines of code, 3 of 3 on Agentic Browsing, accessibility score still 100. Here is the recipe.
