Mink is ready for agents.

## Direct links
- Book: https://mink.ie/corporatebookings (on the business's own site)
- Menu: https://mink.ie/treatments/hand-treatments

## What to fix first, by points
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+5 points) Missing: telephone, opening hours. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/structured-data-restaurant
- **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
