| Menu | therainbowpub.com/menus/ html_page | from the scan |
| Hours | none on record | |

Can an agent transact?
Measured, not scored: the Agent-Direct Score stays at specification v1.0. This says which rails an agent could transact through today, and what the booking or ordering vendor's terms allow.
| UCP profile /.well-known/ucp, Google and Shopify's Universal Commerce Protocol | not measured |
| ACP discovery document /.well-known/acp.json, OpenAI and Stripe's Agentic Commerce Protocol | not measured |
| MCP server card /.well-known/mcp/server-card.json | no |
| Ordering vendor that takes agent orders Square, Toast, or a vendor whose terms allow agents | not measured |
Not measured at this scan; the next scan measures it.
The next scan also reads the contact, menu and booking pages one hop deeper; facts found there can change the score.
