What it means
tragent reports this at the “Find products” stage. The question there is “Can an agent find your products at all?” An agent has to reach your site and locate products by searching or browsing before anything else can happen.
What it does to an agent
Most agents fail at this point. The few that find a way round it spend more time and model calls doing so, and may give up before checkout.
How to fix it
Add id, title, link, price, availability and image_link to every item; Merchant Center disapproves items without them.
Check the fix
Run the check that reported MERCHANT_FEED_REQUIRED_MISSING again after the change. The scan needs no account; an issue found during an AI shopping test needs that test run again.
