Site: https://www.felis-bar.de/
Report: https://directindex.org/r/ruhrtropolis-hostel.com
Scanned: 2026-10-20 (Provisional, with the action test and the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.)
Felis is mostly ready for agents.
An AI assistant can open Felis's website. What Felis offers is in a PDF or an image, and assistants read those badly. To book or order, it is sent to Booking.com, a marketplace.

- Grüne Quelle (180 m): https://directindex.org/r/quelle.de

## What to fix first
- **Booking only through booking_com.** (+12 points) Every transaction an agent makes goes through the marketplace, which takes its commission. Add a direct way on your own site. Even a simple form will do. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/book-direct-on-your-own-website
- **Menu or price list is a PDF.** (+3 points) Most agents skip PDFs or read them badly. Publish it as an HTML page and keep the PDF as a download. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **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

llms.txt. Save as /llms.txt at the root of the site.
