Frequently asked questions

Should I block AI crawlers?

It depends. Blocking training bots (GPTBot, ClaudeBot, Google-Extended) stops your content being used to train models, but blocking search bots can hide you from AI answers that drive traffic. The tester lets you decide per agent.

Does this check my live robots.txt?

It generates and evaluates the rules you configure here. To audit a file already published on a live URL, use the AI Readiness checker, which fetches and parses a real site.

How does the path tester decide allow vs block?

It follows the robots.txt exclusion standard: the most specific matching path rule wins, Allow breaks ties, and a bot without its own group inherits User-agent: *.

Are Crawl-delay and Sitemap supported?

Yes. Add an optional crawl-delay, one or more Sitemap URLs and an optional Host line. Google ignores Crawl-delay but most other engines honour it.
