# Indigo & Cloth - Café: Agent-Direct Score F (10.8%)

Site: https://indigoandcloth.com/pages/cafe
Report: https://directindex.org/r/indigoandcloth.com
Scanned: 2026-10-15 (Provisional: the action test and the assistant citation check still to come; the hatched part of the bar is not measured yet.)
Indigo & Cloth - Café is largely invisible to agents.
AI assistants cannot open the website of Indigo & Cloth - Café, so they rely on what other sites say about it.

## Direct links
- Menu: https://indigoandcloth.com/pages/cafe

## What to fix first
- **The site turns every visitor without a browser away, AI agents included.** (+25 points) A plain fetch was refused (cloudflare_challenge); 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **No structured data for the business.** (+15 points) Add schema.org JSON-LD for the business (CafeOrCoffeeShop, BarOrPub or the closest type, with name, address, telephone and openingHoursSpecification, plus servesCuisine). It is the one block every assistant reads first; the fix kit below has it filled in. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **No booking or ordering link on the website.** (+15 points) Agents find no link to follow on the site. If you take bookings or orders through a platform, link to it from the site so an agent can find it. Add a booking or ordering page on your own domain. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website

## 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.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "CafeOrCoffeeShop",
  "name": "Indigo & Cloth - Café",
  "url": "https://indigoandcloth.com/pages/cafe",
  "address": {
    "@type": "PostalAddress",
    "streetAddress": "Essex Street East",
    "addressLocality": "Dublin"
  },
  "geo": {
    "@type": "GeoCoordinates",
    "latitude": 53.3451605,

}
</script>
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** There is no robots.txt, which allows everything.
- **Menu or price list with prices on the page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.

## Since the scan of 2026-10-14 (F then)
- Fixed: The site could not be read at all
- New: The site turned every visitor without a browser away; No structured data for the business; No booking or ordering path at all
