# How to Make Your Website Usable by AI Agents with WebMCP

A user asks an AI agent to find a hotel room in Lisbon, compare the available options, and prepare a reservation without confirming it. The task sounds simple, but the agent has to understand date fields, guest selectors, room cards, prices, cancellation terms, and the difference between *“Review”* and *“Confirm”.*

With ordinary browser automation, the agent infers those actions from screenshots, the DOM, or the accessibility tree. A redesigned date picker or an ambiguous button can change the whole interaction.

WebMCP proposes another approach: let the website explicitly describe the actions an agent can perform. I built a small hotel booking application to understand what that changes in practice. The [complete demo is available on GitHub](https://github.com/lunai408/web-mcp) as an optional reference implementation, but the important WebMCP pieces are small enough to understand directly in this article.

## What WebMCP actually is

WebMCP is a browser API that allows a web page to expose its capabilities as structured tools. Each tool has a name, a natural-language description, an input schema, and an implementation that runs in the context of the page.
