## What to fix first
- **robots.txt blocks GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended.** (+3.7 points) These are the crawlers behind ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity and Google's AI features. Remove the Disallow lines for them, or add explicit Allow rules. Guide: https://directindex.org/guides/robots-txt-for-ai-agents

## Fix kit: What to paste

robots.txt. Add these lines to /robots.txt and delete any Disallow rule that names these crawlers.

```
# Let AI assistants read the site: they send people to you; a marketplace keeps them.
# Remove any Disallow lines for these names elsewhere in this file.

## Already right
- **AI crawlers get the page.** GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all received a normal response.
- **Structured data present (Restaurant).** address, phone, opening hours
- **Menu or price list is an HTML page.** Agents can read items and prices directly.
- **Ordering on your own site.** Agents can order without a marketplace in the loop.
