Inside your CRO Scan Report, AI Radar Fixes tab, or Autopilot & MCP page, you pick how you update your site, set your rules first, and paste a 1-click prompt into your AI chat:
How do you build or update your website? Pick your setup and follow 3 simple steps
Set a single rule for each top-level section, or expand any section to customize specific fix types
[fill in: ...] placeholder is automatically held in Stage for review.Use the WhyIQ MCP tools for my site: call whyiq_get_site_overview and whyiq_list_autopilot_fixes. Bundle and apply any fixes whose Switchboard mode is "auto", then show me a table of "stage" fixes awaiting my review.Use the WhyIQ MCP tools for my site: call whyiq_inspect_radar_intelligence (view: "losses_and_moves") and whyiq_inspect_visitor_simulation (lens: "synthesis"). Show me which buyer questions we are losing to competitors and our top conversion killers.How Your AI Coding Agent Reads & Applies Fixes
When you connect Antigravity, Cursor, Claude, Gemini, Windsurf, Codex, or ChatGPT, your AI assistant uses these 8 tools to read a lightweight summary first, fetch evidence only for the element it is fixing, and record a 1-click undo backup:
whyiq_get_site_overviewTier 1 · Site Overview (~400 tokens)Returns your domain's composite WhyIQ Score, CTA Pull ({value} / 100), on-page AI recommendation readiness prediction, weekly AI Radar visibility (Mentioned or Cited across the 5 engines), active 4-Mode Switchboard state, and open Autopilot fix counts.
whyiq_inspect_radar_intelligenceTier 2 · AI Radar (5 Views)Queries your weekly AI Radar measurement across 5 views (engine_breakdown, losses_and_moves, page_comparison, foundations, offsite_footprint) to show which rival was named on your buyer questions and which third-party URLs were cited.
whyiq_inspect_visitor_simulationTier 2 · 50-Visitor Simulation (5 Lenses)Queries the 50-visitor CRO simulation across 5 lenses (synthesis, emotional_and_trust, scroll_and_visibility, archetype_voices, technical_audits) so your coding agent sees what proof visitors believed or dismissed and why they left.
whyiq_list_autopilot_fixesTier 2 · Ranked QueueLists ranked fixes across CRO Scanner and AI Radar filtered by Product Group or Switchboard mode (off, flag, stage, auto).
whyiq_prepare_fix_bundleTier 3 · Guarded Prep & Honesty GatePrepares a specific fix ID for execution: returns the target DOM element, verbatim evidence, Switchboard permission, and [fill in: ...] Honesty Gate placeholders that require real customer facts before Auto-Apply.
whyiq_verify_and_record_fixTier 3 · Ledger + SHA-256 SnapshotRecords the pre-change file content and SHA-256 hash into the Applied & Staged Ledger, validates the applied diff against the Honesty Gate, and marks the fix ready for next-scan verification.
whyiq_rollback_fixTier 3 · 1-Click RollbackLooks up any ledger entry ID and restores the exact pre-deployment file content and SHA-256 snapshot.
whyiq_configure_switchboardTier 3 · Switchboard PolicyApplies a Switchboard preset (recommended_safe, hands_free, review_all) or updates individual sub-element modes across all 18 fix types.

How WhyIQ Keeps Your Website & Brand Safe
Every automated or staged fix obeys your WhyIQ approval rules and saves an instant backup before touching your site.
1. Your WhyIQ Rules Govern Everything
You set your approval rules in WhyIQ first (Safe Auto-Fix, Stage & Approve, Full Auto-Fix, or Read-Only). Every connected AI agent or CMS integration obeys those rules automatically.
2. Locked to the Site You Choose
You can scope any AI workspace to a single website so a coding agent working on one project cannot touch any other site in your account.
3. Never Invents Fake Stats
WhyIQ never makes up customer metrics, pricing, case studies, or compliance claims. Any fix needing a real customer number asks you first.
4. Community & Review Replies Always Ask First
Reddit, Hacker News, G2, Capterra, Trustpilot, and third-party outreach drafts are always held for your review. WhyIQ never posts to external communities automatically.
5. Automatic Backup & 1-Click Undo
Before any on-page copy, schema, or edge change is applied, WhyIQ saves the exact original version in your Undo Ledger so you can restore it in one click.
6. Checked Before Publishing
Code and CMS updates are validated before going live, and automatically roll back if a preview build fails.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does WhyIQ 1-Click Fix Automation work?+
In 3 simple steps: (1) Set your approval rules in WhyIQ first (Safe Auto-Fix, Stage & Approve Everything, Full Auto-Fix, or Read-Only); (2) Pick how you update your site (paste a 1-click prompt into your AI coding assistant like Antigravity, Cursor, Claude, Gemini, Windsurf, or Codex, or connect WordPress, Shopify, Webflow, Lovable, Replit, or GitHub); and (3) Approve staged copy changes or undo any change in 1 click.
Do I need to know how to code or edit JSON files?+
No. If you use WordPress, Shopify, or Webflow, changes stage in safe Draft mode with zero coding. If you build with an AI coding tool (vibe coding in Cursor, Antigravity, Claude, Lovable, or Replit), you just copy and paste one plain-English prompt into your AI chat and it connects itself automatically. Or if an agency or developer manages your site, you can copy a 1-click setup link to send to them.
What is the difference between AI Radar and the CRO Scanner?+
WhyIQ AI Radar measures your weekly AI visibility (the share of AI answers that named or linked to you across ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Google AI Mode, Gemini, and Claude). The CRO Scanner runs a 50-visitor behavioral simulation and predicts on-page AI recommendation readiness across 8 signals. Both use the same 4-section approval rules.
How does WhyIQ prevent fake claims or broken pages?+
Every fix is guarded by your WhyIQ approval rules: (1) our Honesty Gate holds any fix that needs a real customer number or quote for your review instead of making one up; (2) community and review replies always wait for your approval; and (3) every change saves an instant backup in your Undo Ledger so you can revert in 1 click.
What do Free tier users get when they connect a domain?+
