# Cosmic Taco: Agent-Direct Score D (45.5%)

Site: https://cosmictacoatx.com
Report: https://directindex.org/r/cosmictacoatx.com
Scanned: 2026-10-23 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Cosmic Taco is hard for agents to use.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Cosmic Taco's website. It can't find a menu or price list, so it answers from other sites. It finds a way to book or order directly on the site.

## Direct links
- Order directly: http://store.cosmictacoatx.com/ (on the business's own site)
- Phone: (512) 466-4432
- Address: 1106 E 11th St, 78702, Austin
- Prices: 47 prices on the site, the middle one $3.50

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations). Every assistant reads this block first, and the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No menu or price list found.** (+7 points) Agents answer 'what do they offer?' from marketplaces instead. Add a page with the menu or price list and link to it from the homepage. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **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
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended.** (+3.7 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents
- **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

## What the site tells visitors (Measured, not scored)
- **The footer says © 2021.** Visitors and assistants may read that year as the last time anyone looked after the site. In Austin, 81% of comparable sites that show a year say 2025 or later.
- **47 prices on the landing page, the middle one $3.50.** In Austin, the middle price of comparable sites that show prices is $10.63.
