+# HuggingFace Space Deployment Guide
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+1. HuggingFace account
+2. PDF reports ready (amazon, x, shopify benchmarks)
+3. ACO Academy API endpoints configured
+
+## Step 1: Create HuggingFace Space
+
+1. Go to https://huggingface.co/spaces
+2. Click "Create new Space"
+3. Fill in details:
+   - **Space name**: `aco-academy-benchmark` (or your choice)
+   - **License**: MIT
+   - **SDK**: Gradio
+   - **Private/Public**: Public (for maximum visibility)
+
+## Step 2: Upload Files
+
+### Required Files
+```
+aco-hf-space/
+├── app.py                    # Main application
+├── requirements.txt          # Python dependencies
+├── README.md                 # Space description (shows on HF page)
+├── .gitignore               # Prevent committing secrets
+└── reports/
+    ├── amazon_benchmark.pdf  # Amazon report
+    ├── x_benchmark.pdf       # X.com report
+    └── shopify_benchmark.pdf # Shopify report
+```
+
+### Upload Methods
+
+**Option A: Git (Recommended)**
+```bash
+# Clone your Space repo
+git clone https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/aco-academy-benchmark
+cd aco-academy-benchmark
+
+# Copy files
+cp -r /path/to/aco-hf-space/* .
+
+# Commit and push
+git add .
+git commit -m "Initial ACO Academy deployment"
+git push
+```
+
+**Option B: Web Interface**
+1. Click "Files and versions" tab in your Space
+2. Click "Add file" → "Upload files"
+3. Upload all files from `aco-hf-space/` directory
+
+## Step 3: Configure Environment Variables
+
+HuggingFace Spaces support secrets via environment variables.
+
+1. Go to your Space settings
+2. Click "Repository secrets"
+3. Add the following secrets:
+
+| Name | Value | Description |
+|------|-------|-------------|
+| `ACO_API_BASE` | `https://agenticcommerce.academy/api` | API endpoint for live scans |
+| `STRIPE_CHECKOUT_BASE` | `https://agenticcommerce.academy/checkout` | Checkout URL for upgrades |
+
+**Note**: These are URLs, not API keys. No sensitive credentials are needed for the demo.
+
+## Step 4: Verify Deployment
+
+1. Wait for Space to build (~2-3 minutes)
+2. Check build logs for errors
+3. Test all three tabs:
+   - ✅ Showcase Examples tab loads PDFs
+   - ✅ Check Your Site tab returns preview results
+   - ✅ About ACO tab displays info
+
+## Step 5: Configure Space Settings
+
+### Visibility
+- **Public** - Recommended for maximum reach
+- Enable "Featured" if you want it on your profile
+
+### Hardware
+- **CPU Basic** is sufficient for this demo
+- Upgrade to GPU only if adding compute-heavy features
+
+### Sleep Time
+- Set to **Never** for production demo
+- Or **7 days** to save resources if traffic is low
+
+## Step 6: Add to ACO Academy Website
+
+Link to your Space from agenticcommerce.academy:
+
+```html
+<a href="https://huggingface.co/spaces/YOUR_USERNAME/aco-academy-benchmark" 
+   target="_blank"
+   class="demo-button">
+  🤗 Try Interactive Demo
+</a>
+```
+
+## Optional: Custom Domain
+
+HuggingFace Spaces support custom domains (paid feature).
+
+To use `demo.agenticcommerce.academy`:
+1. Upgrade Space to PRO
+2. Add CNAME record: `demo.agenticcommerce.academy` → `spaces.huggingface.co`
+3. Configure custom domain in Space settings
+
+## Monitoring
+
+### Analytics
+Track usage via:
+- HuggingFace Space analytics (built-in)
+- Google Analytics (add to `app.py` if needed)
+- Backend API logs (when users hit preview/upgrade endpoints)
+
+### Error Tracking
+Monitor errors via:
+- Space logs (visible in HF UI)
+- Backend error reporting (when API calls fail)
+
+## Updating the Space
+
+### Code Updates
+```bash
+git pull
+# Make changes to app.py
+git add app.py
+git commit -m "Update: [description]"
+git push
+```
+
+### PDF Updates
+Replace showcase PDFs:
+```bash
+cp new_amazon_report.pdf reports/amazon_benchmark.pdf
+git add reports/
+git commit -m "Update showcase reports"
+git push
+```
+
+### Environment Updates
+1. Go to Space settings
+2. Update repository secrets
+3. Restart Space if needed
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Space Won't Build
+- Check `requirements.txt` for valid package versions
+- Ensure all files are UTF-8 encoded
+- Review build logs for specific errors
+
+### PDFs Not Loading
+- Verify files are in `reports/` directory
+- Check file paths match `SHOWCASE_EXAMPLES` dict
+- Ensure PDFs are not corrupted
+
+### Preview Scan Not Working
+- Check `ACO_API_BASE` environment variable
+- Verify API endpoint is accessible
+- Review backend logs for errors
+
+## Security Notes
+
+✅ **Safe Practices Used:**
+- No API keys in code
+- All secrets via environment variables
+- Git-ignored sensitive files
+- Public URLs only (no auth tokens)
+
+❌ **Avoid:**
+- Committing `.env` files
+- Hardcoding credentials
+- Exposing internal API keys
+
+## Next Steps
+
+After initial deployment:
+
+1. **Monitor usage** - Track which features get most engagement
+2. **Collect feedback** - Watch for common issues or questions
+3. **Iterate** - Add ARCHON chat, leaderboard, etc.
+4. **Promote** - Share on social media, forums, HN, etc.

+# 🤖 ACO Academy Benchmark Tool
+
+**Agent Commerce Optimization - The SEO of the AI Era**
+
+## What is ACO?
+
+Agent Commerce Optimization (ACO) is the emerging standard for making websites discoverable and usable by AI agents. As AI assistants like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini increasingly act as shopping agents for users, websites need to be optimized for **programmatic agent access**, not just human browsers.
+
+## Why This Matters
+
+Traditional SEO optimizes for human search engines. ACO optimizes for AI agents that:
+- Need to discover your APIs and capabilities programmatically
+- Require structured data for product comparisons
+- Must verify trust and security before executing transactions
+- Follow Model Context Protocol (MCP) standards
+
+**Sites without ACO will be invisible to AI commerce agents.**
+
+## What This Tool Does
+
+Our benchmark analyzes your site across **6 critical dimensions**:
+
+1. **🔍 SEO Analysis** - Traditional discoverability (SSL, sitemap, meta tags)
+2. **🤖 ACO Implementation** - Agent readiness (agent.json, MCP, llms.txt)
+3. **🔒 Security** - Trust signals (headers, rate limiting, CDN)
+4. **✅ Consent Audit** - Privacy compliance (GDPR, CCPA, fiduciary duty)
+5. **🧠 CEH-RI** - Cognitive Event Horizon Risk Index (manipulation detection)
+6. **📋 Recommendations** - Prioritized action plan
+
+## Try It Now
+
+### 🔍 Showcase Examples
+View full PDF reports for major platforms:
+- **Amazon.com** - Grade F (49/100) - Zero ACO implementation
+- **X.com** - Grade D (65/100) - Partial ACO support
+- **Shopify.com** - Grade B (78/100) - Good ACO implementation
+
+### 🆓 Check Your Site
+Get a **free preview scan** of any domain:
+- Basic ACO component detection
+- Estimated grade
+- High-level findings
+
+### 🔥 Full Report ($99)
+Upgrade to get:
+- Complete 6-category analysis (20+ checks)
+- Detailed CEH-RI risk assessment
+- Security & consent deep dive
+- Prioritized recommendations with impact scores
+- 4-page downloadable PDF report
+
+## About ACO Academy
+
+ACO Academy is built on the **SmartLedger ecosystem**:
+
+- **E² Identity** - Verifiable credentials for agent authentication
+- **BLS Explorer** - Transparent blockchain audit trails  
+- **SNTNL Network** - Decentralized trust infrastructure
+
+**[Visit ACO Academy →](https://agenticcommerce.academy)**
+
+## CEH-RI: Cognitive Event Horizon Risk Index
+
+Our proprietary metric measures **cognitive manipulation risk** across 6 dimensions:
+
+- **Epistemic Cost Asymmetry** - Information imbalance
+- **Planning Horizon Collapse** - Urgency-based pressure
+- **Execution Determinism** - Action outcome clarity
+- **Justification Latency** - Decision factor transparency
+- **Memory Reinforcement Intensity** - Pattern manipulation
+- **Trust Portability Friction** - Lock-in vs. interoperability
+
+Higher scores indicate elevated risk of agent exploitation.
+
+## Examples of ACO Compliance
+
+### ✅ Good (Grade A-B)
+- Implements `/.well-known/agent.json` for A2A Protocol discovery
+- Provides MCP manifest for Model Context Protocol support
+- Includes `/llms.txt` to guide AI crawlers
+- Uses JSON-LD structured data
+- Strong security headers and rate limiting
+- Transparent consent mechanisms
+
+### ❌ Poor (Grade D-F)
+- No agent discovery files
+- Missing structured data
+- Weak or absent security headers
+- High CEH-RI scores (manipulation patterns)
+- Unclear consent flows
+
+## Technical Details
+
+This Space provides:
+- **Showcase reports** - Pre-generated PDF benchmarks for major sites
+- **Preview scans** - Free basic ACO checks for any domain
+- **Upgrade flow** - Stripe checkout for full $99 reports
+
+**No API keys or secrets are exposed in this Space.** All external calls are configured via environment variables.
+
+## Grading Scale
+
+- **A (90-100)**: Excellent - Agent-native platform
+- **B (80-89)**: Good - Strong ACO with minor gaps
+- **C (70-79)**: Adequate - Needs improvement
+- **D (60-69)**: Poor - Major gaps
+- **F (0-59)**: Failing - Not ready

+        ## What is Agent Commerce Optimization?
+        
+        **ACO is the new standard for AI-ready commerce platforms.**
+        
+        ### 🤖 Why ACO Matters
+        
+        AI agents are becoming primary commerce participants:
+        - Personal AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini) make purchases on behalf of users
+        - Agents need programmatic access to discover products, compare prices, and execute transactions
+        - Traditional SEO optimizes for *human browsers* - ACO optimizes for *AI agents*
+        
+        ### 📊 What We Analyze
+        
+        Our benchmark evaluates 6 critical dimensions:
+        
+        #### 1. 🔍 SEO Analysis (Traditional Discoverability)
+        - SSL/HTTPS configuration
+        - robots.txt and sitemap presence
+        - Meta tags and structured markup
+        
+        #### 2. 🤖 ACO Implementation (Agent Readiness)
+        - **agent.json** - A2A Protocol discovery card
+        - **MCP manifest** - Model Context Protocol support
+        - **llms.txt** - AI crawler guidance
+        - JSON-LD and Schema.org structured data
+        
+        #### 3. 🔒 Security (Trust & Protection)
+        - Security headers (CSP, HSTS, referrer-policy)
+        - Rate limiting and sybil protection
+        - CDN and DDoS mitigation
+        - Human escalation paths
+        
+        #### 4. ✅ Consent Audit (Privacy & Compliance)
+        - GDPR compliance
+        - CCPA compliance
+        - Informed consent mechanisms
+        - Fiduciary duty transparency
+        
+        #### 5. 🧠 CEH-RI (Cognitive Event Horizon Risk Index)
+        
+        Our proprietary metric measures cognitive manipulation risk across 6 dimensions:
+        - **Epistemic Cost Asymmetry** - Information imbalance between site and agent
+        - **Planning Horizon Collapse** - Urgency-based pressure tactics
+        - **Execution Determinism** - Clarity of action outcomes
+        - **Justification Latency** - Transparency of decision factors
+        - **Memory Reinforcement Intensity** - Pattern-based manipulation
+        - **Trust Portability Friction** - Lock-in vs. interoperability
+        
+        #### 6. 📋 Prioritized Recommendations
+        
+        Actionable fixes ranked by:
+        - **Impact** - How much this improves your score
+        - **Effort** - Implementation difficulty
+        - **Priority** - Critical, High, Medium, Low
+        
+        ### 🏆 Grading Scale
+        
+        - **A (90-100)**: Excellent - Agent-native commerce platform
+        - **B (80-89)**: Good - Strong ACO with minor gaps
+        - **C (70-79)**: Adequate - Basic agent support, needs improvement
+        - **D (60-69)**: Poor - Partial implementation, major gaps
+        - **F (0-59)**: Failing - Not ready for agent commerce
+
