- Phone: 408-320-4425

## What to fix first
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+6.7 points) Live fetches as GPTBot (http_403), 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. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/blocking-ai-crawlers-without-knowing
- **Clover's terms bar bots and automated use; a direct form on your own site has no such limit.** (+5 points) Clover's consumer app terms (8 June 2023, section 3.5), linked from its online ordering pages, bar any deep-link, robot, spider or other device or process to access, copy or monitor the site or app, and bar the use of buying agents; no agent programme was found. Read 2026-10-15: https://www.clover.com/consumer/terms. An agent that books or orders there acts outside the vendor's terms unless the vendor permits it; a form or booking page on your own domain has no such limit. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Structured data is incomplete.** (+3 points) Missing: 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
