Ahimsa

What to fix first

1. robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, PerplexityBot, Google-Extended, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Perplexity-User +10 points

   These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. How to fix it

2. Structured data is incomplete +6 points

   Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. How to fix it

3. Menu or price list lives on another site +5 points

   The link points to getsauce.com, so the credit and the traffic go there. How to fix it

4. Ordering through an unrecognised third party no points, still worth doing

   Check that the provider keeps you as the merchant of record. How to fix it

5. No llms.txt no points, still worth doing

   Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. How to fix it

Already right

• AI crawlers get the page GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
• Structured data present (Organization) but without address, phone or hours
• Booking on your own site Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.

What agents get for Ahimsa

The links an assistant is sent when it books, orders or reads the menu for this business, where each leads, and when a browser last checked it. The same record is served as JSON at /api/direct/ahimsagarden.com, through the MCP tool direct_record and in the city feed /city/new-york/direct.json.

Stable links that count: /go/ahimsagarden.com/book, /go/ahimsagarden.com/menu answer 302 to the links above; the count is the line "followed N direct links" on this page.

Owners: claim the business below to correct this record; the claim email carries the link.

Can an agent transact?

Measured, not scored: the Agent-Direct Score stays at specification v1.0. This says which rails an agent could transact through today, and what the booking or ordering vendor's terms allow.

Not measured at this scan; the next scan measures it.

The next scan also reads the contact, menu and booking pages one hop deeper; facts found there can change the score.

Level 0 of 5, Not Ready

The standards an agent looks for before it reads a page, on the same criteria as Cloudflare's Agent Readiness scan. Not part of the score; each missing item links to a how-to. Cloudflare's report.

What assistants answer

Each assistant is asked three questions about this business: the official website, where to book, where to order. The cell says where the answer sent people.

Not asked yet. Assistants are asked about the top-ranked businesses in each city index, and about every claimed business the moment it is claimed; claim this page to be included.
