You know that feeling when you stare at your own site and wonder if the basics are actually there? I built Cordport to answer that specific question without the usual overhead. It gives your website a quick once-over, checking whether the fundamentals show up in your public HTML. There is no signup, no installation, and no need to grant access to your private systems. It is a straightforward tool for a straightforward check.

When I was developing this feature, I focused on keeping the scope tight. We check a small set of public pages and explain exactly what was observed. We do not run browser scripts, follow sitemap links, scan ports, or certify security, accessibility, search rankings, or AI recommendations. The results are dated and cached for 24 hours, so you get a snapshot of the current state rather than a live, fluctuating feed. This keeps the process fast and predictable.

The output is designed to be practical. If metadata is missing, it may be worth improving. However, a failed check might simply mean that automated access is restricted. It is a local perspective, not a global verdict. I wanted the tool to be careful work, not a black box that makes sweeping claims about your entire digital presence. It tells you what it sees, and nothing more.

Think of it as a mirror for your public-facing code. It helps you verify that the essentials are present in the HTML that anyone can see. It does not replace a full audit, but it provides a useful baseline. You can run it, see the dated results, and decide if you need to adjust anything. The lack of browser scripts and port scanning means it stays lightweight and focused on the core question: are the basics there?

If you want a quick, no-nonsense look at your public website's HTML, Cordport is ready for you. It respects your privacy by staying on the surface and avoids the complexity of deeper scans. Just check the basics, note the date, and move on with your day. It is a simple utility for a simple need, built to be useful without being intrusive.
