# Allow everything by default — the site is public marketing + lead capture
# and discoverability is the whole strategy. Explicitly Allow AI crawlers so
# Cloudflare's managed "block AI bots" defaults don't silently shut them
# out: ChatGPT / Claude / Perplexity are 2026 discovery channels too.
#
# If Cloudflare's "AI Audit / AI bot control" rules are active at the zone
# level, they enforce at the edge (request time) regardless of this file —
# disable that in dash.cloudflare.com → loadingcrews.com → Security → Bots
# if AI crawlers are being blocked despite this Allow.
