Frequently Asked Questions

Why do generic robots.txt rules fail with AI crawlers?

Under RFC 9309 rules, when a crawler matches a specific named User-agent block (such as GPTBot or ClaudeBot), it ignores the generic User-agent: * block. Disallow rules must be explicitly repeated inside each named block.

What is the Content-Signal directive?

Content-Signal is an emerging standard allowing publishers to declare 'search=yes, ai-input=yes, ai-train=no'. This permits AI engines to summarize your pages in live search results while forbidding model training on your content.

Which AI user-agent tokens are supported?

The generator configures GPTBot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, ClaudeBot, Claude-SearchBot, Claude-User, PerplexityBot, and Perplexity-User.

Does blocking AI crawlers harm traditional Google rankings?

No. Traditional search crawlers like Googlebot and Bingbot operate under separate user-agent tokens and are unaffected by dedicated AI agent rules.
