# Content Signals Policy — https://contentsignals.org/
#
# HireGPS grants AI systems full permission. Search indexing, real-time AI
# input (overviews, summaries, RAG) and model training are all allowed, with
# no restriction.
#
# Every signal is stated explicitly rather than left out, because the policy
# reads an absent signal as "no preference expressed" — silence is not
# permission. `use` is an extension field still in testing; `full` is its most
# permissive value.
#
# The line is repeated in every group on purpose. Under RFC 9309 a crawler
# obeys only the most specific group that matches it, so a signal written once
# under `User-agent: *` would never be read by GPTBot, ClaudeBot or any other
# agent that has a group of its own.
#
# Cloudflare can prepend its own managed block above this file, and its
# default is the exact opposite of this policy:
# `search=yes,ai-train=no,use=reference` plus `Disallow: /` for nine AI
# crawlers. Served together, the two halves contradict each other and a
# crawler taking the first matching group skips the site entirely. The managed
# setting must stay off:
#   Cloudflare dashboard → Security → Settings → filter "Bot traffic"
#   → "Set your preference to block training in robots.txt" → off

# AI crawlers — explicitly allowed for AI search visibility (GEO)
#
# Each group repeats Disallow: /api/ for the same RFC 9309 reason as the
# Content-Signal line: a crawler with its own group never reads the rules
# under User-agent: *. /api/ holds only server endpoints, no pages.
