# Assembly Ground: Agent-Direct Score D (54.3%) Site: http://www.assemblygroundcafe.com/ Report: https://directindex.org/r/assemblygroundcafe.com Scanned: 2026-10-18 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.) Assembly Ground is hard for agents to use. Some AI assistants are turned away by Assembly Ground's website. It can read what Assembly Ground offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Square. ## Direct links - Order directly: https://assemblygroundcafe.square.site/?location=11ed43fbfffaf5a7a9c1ac1f6bbbd01e&item=310#32 (through square acting for the business) - Menu: https://www.assemblygroundcafe.com/menu/ ## What to fix first - **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant - **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_403), ClaudeBot (http_403) were refused, but a normal browser got the page. That's usually a bot list at the host or in a firewall that the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing - **No llms.txt.** (no points, but worth doing) Optional for now and cheap to add. It's a short text file that describes the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business ## Fix kit: What to paste Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong. ```html ``` llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site. ``` # Assembly Ground > cafe or coffee shop in Melbourne cafes and bars. ## Book or order directly - Order: https://assemblygroundcafe.square.site/?location=11ed43fbfffaf5a7a9c1ac1f6bbbd01e&item=310#32 (through square acting for the business) - Menu: https://www.assemblygroundcafe.com/menu/ ## About - Website: http://www.assemblygroundcafe.com/ - This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models. ``` ## Already right - **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents. - **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices. - **Ordering through square on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours. ## Where it stands 1571 of 3067 in Melbourne cafes and bars.
