OnhandBot/1.0
A crawler with a name and a door.
OnhandBot fetches public pages from local shops so assistants can describe what a business can do — not a raw count, not a ranking slot. This page is the User-Agent URL. If you want us to stop, say so here.
01 What we fetch
Public pages. Extracted text. No inventory.
We read robots.txt, then a small set of URLs that look like menu, shop, hours, about, or booking pages. We store extracted text, not HTML. We do not collect payment credentials, and we never persist a stock count.
02 Opt out
Robots.txt or email. Both work.
Block OnhandBot
Add this to your robots.txt. We honor Disallow for our user agent.

Tell us the domain. We drop it from the crawl queue. Nothing on a small-business site is worth an argument.
