Info

1 of 4 AI answer engines are blocked

Blocked: Google-Extended.

  • Google-ExtendedGoogleL9

    Google AI Overviews and Gemini grounding

    "Disallow: /" blocks Google-Extended.

If that is the intention. If your intention is to keep the site out of AI-generated answers, the current configuration achieves that for these crawlers — the rest of the group is still allowed.

Consequence. The site cannot be cited as a source in AI-generated answers. Unlike training crawlers these send referral traffic, so blocking them forfeits those visits.

If that is not intended. Remove the matching Disallow rule, or allow these agents on the sections you want cited.

Info

3 of 6 AI training crawlers are blocked

Blocked: GPTBot, ClaudeBot, CCBot.

  • GPTBotOpenAIL6

    OpenAI model training

    "Disallow: /" blocks GPTBot.

  • ClaudeBotAnthropicL15

    Anthropic model training

    "Disallow: /" blocks ClaudeBot.

  • CCBotCommon CrawlL12

    Common Crawl, widely redistributed as training data

    "Disallow: /" blocks CCBot.

If that is the intention. If your intention is to prevent this content being used as model training data, the current configuration achieves that for these crawlers — the rest of the group is still allowed.

Consequence. These crawlers cannot retrieve content from the site, so it will not be collected as training data. They send no traffic back, and blocking them does not affect search rankings.

If that is not intended. Remove the site-wide block, or replace it with narrower path restrictions.
