Gaps
- high11 of 14 AI agents are blockedAssistants asked about this page will guess, or cite someone else. Deliberate for a paywalled publisher. Otherwise this is the biggest gap on the list.
- lowNo llms.txtOptional, but a short curated index at /llms.txt is the cheapest way to tell assistants what matters on this site.
- infoCanonical points elsewhereCanonical is https://www.bonappetit.com/. Indexes will credit that URL, not this one.
