things to fix
Action test, 2026-10-14: partial, there's a path, but an agent would have trouble with it. There is a button or a form, but no complete booking or ordering flow an agent can finish on this page.
Provisional, with the assistant citation check still to come. The hatched part of the bar isn't measured yet.
