# AI Discovery Protocol — whoissharon.com
# Helps AI systems understand how this content may be used and cited.
#
# CANONICAL AI USAGE POLICY (identical in /robots.txt, /ai-training.json,
# /llms.txt, and in the page + header layers served with every response):
#   AI model training / dataset collection ... ALLOWED
#   AI search, retrieval & cited answering ... ALLOWED (attribution appreciated)
#   Traditional search indexing .............. ALLOWED
#
# Policy approved 2026-09-27: this site exists to be found and cited by AI
# search and assistants. All AI crawler classes are allowed, consistently —
# whatever is declared for one AI crawler is declared for all.
#
# /robots.txt is authoritative for crawler directives. The groups below mirror
# it exactly; if they ever diverge, /robots.txt wins and the divergence is a bug.
#
# This file only reaches agents that request it. The same policy is carried in
# the HTML of every page (robots meta, JSON-LD license/usageInfo) and in every
# HTTP response (policy pointer headers, no opt-out headers), so an agent that
# fetches a URL directly still sees it. /llms.txt restates it in Markdown.

# --- Default: crawl, index, train, and cite ---
# /_next/static/ holds every page's CSS and JS. It is explicitly allowed so
# crawlers can render pages; a bare "Disallow: /_next/" would leave the HTML
# indexable but unstyled and un-hydrated. Longest-match precedence means the
# more specific Allow wins over the Disallow below it.

# --- All other AI training / retrieval agents: allowed, same terms ---
# Training and retrieval crawlers share one policy: allow. The previous
# mixed allow/block split was the "inconsistent AI training bot policy"
# defect; it is resolved by allowing every class.
