# Heart of Gold: Agent-Direct Score B (81.5%)

Site: https://www.heartofgoldnyc.com/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/heartofgoldnyc.com
Scanned: 2026-10-14 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Heart of Gold is mostly ready for agents.

## Direct links
- Book directly: https://www.heartofgoldnyc.com/reservations (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://www.heartofgoldnyc.com/menus

## What to fix first
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+7 points) Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **Almost no text without JavaScript.** (+2 points) Crawlers that do not run scripts see an empty page. Render the menu, hours and address as plain HTML. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/website-blank-without-javascript
- **No llms.txt.** (no points, still worth doing) Optional today, cheap to add: a short text file describing the business for language models. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/llms-txt-for-a-business

## 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.
