Protect (rule checks)
Deterministic SEO, schema, a11y, and recipe checks — rule-only, fast.

Note
Protect is part of Creytix Inspector — QA and production readiness, detect and report, not auto-fix.
Overview
Protect is the fast, deterministic layer of Inspector: a set of rule checks for SEO metadata, structured schema, accessibility basics, and page "recipes" — the structural conventions a template is supposed to follow. Every check is rule-based — there's no model judgment call in the loop — so it runs quickly and gives you the same answer every time for the same input.
How it works
- Run Protect against a page or a batch. It checks metadata, schema markup, accessibility attributes, and structural conventions against fixed rules.
- Get a pass/fail report per rule, not a vague quality score.
- Fix or override. Protect tells you what failed; your team decides whether to fix it or explicitly accept it.
Steps
- •
Point Protect at a page or route
Run a check against a single page during editing, or a batch before a release.
- •
Read the rule-by-rule report
Each check reports pass or fail against a specific, named rule — title length, missing alt text, schema shape, and so on.
- •
Fix what needs fixing
Address failures in the content or template. Protect doesn't touch the page itself.
- •
Re-run before you ship
Re-check after fixes, and let the CI gate hold the line on anything still failing.
Capabilities
- SEO checks — title length, meta description presence, canonical tags, and related metadata rules.
- Schema checks — structured data shape against what the page type expects.
- Accessibility checks — the mechanical basics: alt text, contrast-adjacent attributes, focus and touch-target rules.
- Recipe checks — a page's structure against the conventions its template is supposed to follow.
Limits & honest scope
Protect is rule-only by design — that's what makes it fast and repeatable.
- It does not use judgment: a rule either passes or fails, and Protect doesn't weigh nuance or context the way a human reviewer would.
- It checks the mechanics of accessibility and SEO — it's not a substitute for a full accessibility audit or an SEO strategy review.
- It does not fix the failures it finds. Protect reports; a person, or another tool, decides what to do next.
