# The citelayer® Dashboard

Use the dashboard to move from a status summary to the actual response or local data behind it. A green card is useful only within the feature it checks.

Run and read a scan
-------------------

1. Open the AI Scanner and run the checks.
2. Read the explanation for each warning or failure.
3. Open the affected endpoint or page and compare its body with the expected output.
4. After a fix, run the relevant check again.

Follow the feature screens
--------------------------

- Schema: configured identity and output ownership.
- llms.txt and Markdown: scope, exclusions and response diagnosis.
- Bot Analytics: logged crawler activity, referrals and blind spots.
- WebMCP: context discovery, Abilities availability and Read-only mode.
- Store add-ons: license/settings state and platform capabilities.

Keep measurements separate
--------------------------

The site scanner, per-page editor checklist and blindspot content score use different inputs. Bot totals count matching requests; referral totals count recognized arrival events. None is a citation leaderboard. See [score methodology](/docs/ai-readiness-scanner/) and [analytics limits](/docs/bot-analytics/).

When the browser differs from the dashboard
-------------------------------------------

A static file, cache layer, WAF, SEO provider or server rule can serve a response different from the plugin generator. Inspect the public endpoint from a fresh request and use diagnosis rather than assuming saved settings describe what every visitor receives.

Next step
---------

Continue with [the quick start checklist](/docs/quick-start/), or [check the common questions](/docs/faq/). For a reproducible problem, send the plugin versions, affected URL, expected result and actual response through [Support](/support/). Do not include passwords, license keys or customer details.
