| 3 | * AI crawler access controls. |
| 4 | * |
| 5 | * Lets a site owner allow or block individual AI crawlers (training and |
| 6 | * answer-engine bots) by appending per-user-agent `Disallow` rules to the |
| 7 | * WordPress-generated robots.txt. |
| 8 | * |
| 9 | * Persistence uses a STORE-INTENT model rather than a literal blocked list. The |
| 10 | * durable option `jetpack_seo_ai_crawler_overrides` holds only *deviations* from |
| 11 | * each bot's default policy (training crawlers blocked, answer-engine crawlers |
| 12 | * allowed); a bot with no stored override falls back to its default. |
| 13 | * This keeps the stored map sparse and means newly added training crawlers are |
| 14 | * covered automatically without a migration. |
| 15 | * |
| 16 | * Caveat: the `robots_txt` filter only feeds WordPress's *virtual* robots.txt. |
| 17 | * A detected static file in the WordPress installation is not modified — a |
| 18 | * limitation surfaced in the AI tab (see {@see self::has_static_robots_txt()}). |
