Already right

- AI crawlers get the page GPTBot, ClaudeBot and PerplexityBot all got a normal response.
- Menu or price list is an HTML page Agents can read the items and prices.
- DoorDash works with agents through its partners DoorDash's consumer terms (13 August 2026) allow access only by means DoorDash authorizes and bar automated means without written permission; agents order only through its CLI and MCP limited betas. Terms read on 2026-10-15: https://help.doordash.com/legal/document?type=cx-terms-and-conditions®ion=US&locale=en-US. An assistant that isn't a partner may not be able to finish there. A direct path on your own domain works for all of them.
