Report: https://directindex.org/r/kocospub.com
Scanned: 2026-11-13 (Provisional, with the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Koco's Pub is partly visible to agents.
Some AI assistants are turned away by Koco's Pub's website. It can read what Koco's Pub offers. It finds a way to book or order directly, through Toast.

## Direct links
- Order directly: https://www.toasttab.com/koco-s-pub-4301-harford-rd (through toast acting for the business)
- Menu: https://kocospub.com/menu/
- Phone: +14104263519
- Address: 4301 Harford Rd, Baltimore 21214
- Its menu mentions: vegetarian dishes, a children's menu

## What to fix first
- **No structured data for the business.** (+14 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
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+3.3 points) Requests as GPTBot (http_429) 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
- **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

## Fix kit: What to paste

Structured data (JSON-LD). Paste it as one block in the page's head, or in the builder's custom code box. Change anything that's wrong.

```html
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
  "@context": "https://schema.org",

  "name": "Koco's Pub",
  "url": "http://www.kocospub.com",

# Koco's Pub

> local business (seafood) in 4301 Harford Rd, Baltimore 21214, Baltimore. Phone +14104263519.

## Book or order directly

- Order: https://www.toasttab.com/koco-s-pub-4301-harford-rd (through toast acting for the business)
- Menu: https://kocospub.com/menu/

## About

- Website: http://www.kocospub.com
- This file follows llms.txt (https://llmstxt.org): a short plain-text description for language models.
```

## Already right
- **robots.txt lets AI crawlers in.** No rule blocks the main AI user agents.
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read the items and prices.
- **Ordering through toast on your own domain.** There's no marketplace commission, and the customer stays yours.
- **Toast works with agents through its partners.** Toast's guest terms could not be read on 2026-10-15 (bot challenge); since August 2026 Google's Ask Maps completes orders at Toast restaurants through Toast Local under the UCP for Food standard. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://www.digitaltransactions.net/square-toast-jump-into-ai-boosted-google-maps/. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
