Honest list of what is shipped, what is next, and what is being deferred until users actually ask. No release-date promises.
15 checks, 5-sheet xlsx, path-scoped audits, score breakdown, dual-UA SPA detection, sitemap-index recursion, 1-hop link expansion, broken-link probing with framework-pattern filters, anchor text quality, orphan detection.
- #1 Soften C-02 AI bot allowlist severity — per r/coolgithubprojects feedback. Robots.txt is opt-out; absence of explicit allow doesn't block AI bots. Soften severity, re-weight category math.
- #2 Add firewall blocking detection (C-26) — per r/coolgithubprojects feedback. Cloudflare/WAF can block AI bot UAs before robots.txt is even read. New P0 check.
- #3 Add soft-404 detection (C-25) — validated by real Bing report on work-smart.ai 2026-05-21. SPA catch-all returns 200 + empty shell for unknown routes. New P0 check.
- GitHub Action wrapper.
uses: WorkSmartAI-alt/citable-action@v1to run citable in CI and fail builds if score drops below a threshold. High-value distribution but only ship after 200+ stars validates demand. - Multi-site batch mode. Audit N sites in parallel from a file of URLs.
- Auto-open xlsx after run (
--openflag). macOS-specific, complicates cross-platform support. - Webhook on completion (
--webhook). Push the score to Slack / Discord / a custom endpoint.
- No SaaS version. citable stays a CLI. Hosted demos are out of scope.
- No telemetry. No phone-home, no opt-in analytics. Open source = trustworthy = no surveillance.
- No Pro tier. Everything free, MIT.
- No VS Code extension. Out of scope for a CLI tool.
- No web UI. Out of scope.
