 The behavior-vs-drift guard applies to agents too: a failing assertion comes back as `needs-human`, with an explicit note that forcing it green would mask a real bug. `heal_test` only accepts existing test files under the directory `9lives mcp` was started in (`NINELIVES_MCP_UNRESTRICTED=1` lifts this), since healing a spec ultimately executes it.
 
-Healing is half the loop — the spec has to come from somewhere. 9lives' sibling MCP server, [qmax-mcp](https://github.com/Quality-Max/qmax-mcp) (`npx -y @qualitymax/qmax-mcp`, MIT), covers the other half: scan a page for defects, inspect it for stability-ranked locators and a testability score, generate a Playwright repro, and run it. Same rules — local, free, no account. A spec born on qmax-mcp's stability-ranked locators is exactly the kind 9lives can keep alive when it drifts.
+Healing is half the loop — the spec has to come from somewhere. The Go runner now covers the other half, with the checks that used to be the separate qmax-mcp server: `9l scan <url>` finds console, link, accessibility, Core Web Vitals, SEO, security-header, cookie, mixed-content and page-weight problems from one page load; `9l inspect <url>` ranks a page's locators by stability; and `9l mcp` gives coding agents `scan_url`, `inspect_page` and `generate_playwright_repro` beside its run, heal, assess and confirm tools. Same rules — local, free, no account. A spec built on stable locators is exactly the kind 9lives can keep alive when it drifts.
