things to fix
Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.
What to fix first
- The server turns AI crawlers away at the door
Live fetches as ClaudeBot (challenge:attention required) were refused while a normal browser got the page. This is usually a hosting or firewall bot list the owner never chose. Ask the host to allow these user agents. How to fix it
- No working HTTPS
The page is only served over plain http. Agents and browsers downrank or refuse it.
- No structured data for the business
Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (Restaurant, LocalBusiness or the closest type) with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine and acceptsReservations for a restaurant. It is the one block every assistant reads first. How to fix it
- No booking or ordering path at all
Agents have nothing to act on. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. How to fix it
- No llms.txt
Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. How to fix it
No one is listed yet to fix this in Edinburgh cafes and bars. List your agency or yourself: free, reviewed by hand.
Already right
- robots.txt lets AI crawlers in No rule blocks the key AI user agents.
- Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read items and prices directly.

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.
