# a stir: Agent-Direct Score C (56.9%)

Site: https://www.capitolcider.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/astirseattle.com
Scanned: 2026-10-16 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
a stir is partly visible to agents.
AI assistants cannot open the website of a stir, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://astirseattle.com/private-events-page (on the business's own site)
- Order directly: https://www.toasttab.com/astir/giftcards (through toast acting for the business)
- Menu: https://astirseattle.com/food-menu
- Phone: 2063973564

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (http_429); only a real browser got the page. Every AI crawler and agent is turned away the same way, so Reachable scores 0 and the rest is measured on the rendered page. Ask the host to let the AI user agents through.

- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). One block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom-code slot. Replace anything that is wrong.

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- **Structured data present (Restaurant).** address, phone
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Booking on your own site.** Agents can book without a marketplace in the loop.
- **Ordering through toast on your own domain.** No marketplace commission, and the guest stays yours.
