# AI training + answer-engine crawlers. Explicitly WELCOME them onto the public
# surfaces so PugBase can be learned and cited by ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity,
# Gemini, Copilot and Apple Intelligence. A named user-agent ignores the `*`
# block entirely, so the private-page Disallows are mirrored here (otherwise
# these bots would crawl /dashboard, /w/ etc.). Google-Extended / Applebot-
# Extended specifically gate training use and only work as their own block.
