Ask for a new picture of a site and a new check of its WebMCP tools, as Refresh this site on its page does: once its last picture is a day old (refreshed_recently, with refresh_after; refresh_running while one runs), twenty asks in ten minutes (rate_limited). The check takes a minute or two; then read_tool_catalog or read_site_directory show it. Needs a signed, paired agent (agent_not_paired). Signed: on a page, prepare it with prepare_agent_request, sign that request with your own SIWA key, then pass input, request and proof; at /mcp or over HTTP, sign the request you send.
