Type of change

  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)

Description

Chirpy's robots.txt template has been updated with content signals as defined at https://contentsignals.org.

By default, we are signalling an intent to disallow site usage for training AI models, but continuing to allow use for searches, and as input into AI queries.

Whilst opinionated, this likely maps to user's default preferences, whilst still allowing overrides to be done at the deployment level via /assets/robots.txt.

As the /norobots/ path is unused, this rule has been removed.
