## What to fix first
- **The server turns AI crawlers away at the door.** (+10 points) Requests as GPTBot (challenge:attention required), ClaudeBot (challenge:attention required), PerplexityBot (http_403) 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
- **Menu or price list is on another site.** (+5 points) The link goes to restoquebec.ca, so that site gets the credit and the visits. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/menu-pdf-ai
- **Ordering through an unrecognised third party.** (+5 points) Check that the provider keeps your business as the seller of record. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/online-ordering-without-delivery-apps
- **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.
