What to fix first

1. Structured data is incomplete +7 points

   Missing: address, telephone, opening hours. How to fix it

2. No price list of services found +7 points

   Agents answer 'what do they offer and what does it cost' from marketplaces and directories instead. Add a page with services and prices as text and link it from the homepage. How to fix it

3. The server turns AI crawlers away at the door +3.3 points

   Live fetches as ClaudeBot (http_403) 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

Can an agent transact?

Measured, not scored: the Agent-Direct Score stays at specification v1.0. This says which rails an agent could transact through today, and what the booking or ordering vendor's terms allow.

Not measured at this scan; the next scan measures it.

The next scan also reads the contact, menu and booking pages one hop deeper; facts found there can change the score.
