# SEO Technical: robots.txt
Guides configuration and auditing of robots.txt for search engine and AI crawler control.
**When invoking**: On **first use**, if helpful, open with 1–2 sentences on what this skill covers and why it matters, then provide the main output. On **subsequent use** or when the user asks to skip, go directly to the main output.
## Scope (Technical SEO)
- **Robots.txt**: Configure Disallow/Allow, Sitemap, Clean-param; audit for accidental blocks
- **Crawler access**: Path-level crawl control; AI crawler allow/block strategy
- **Differentiation**: robots.txt = crawl control (who accesses what paths); noindex = index control (what gets indexed). See **indexing** for page-level exclusions.
## Initial Assessment
