Current robots.txt interpretation

Each state uses the registry and parser version attached to the observation. “Allowed” is a parser result, not a grant or verified crawler behavior.

Tracked crawler observations

These are parser results for the published robots rules, not authentication or legal conclusions.

Method and limitations

CrawlLedger observes narrow public policy endpoints, records bounded response metadata, retains source bytes privately by content hash, and appends parser output. It does not authenticate requesting bots, infer unstated intent, or decide legal permission.

Included

Public metadata, exact hashes, parser versions, signal states, and recent chain links from the fixed cohort.

Not included

Private artifact keys, raw source redistribution, ordinary page content, legal conclusions, or customer-specific monitoring.

How this report was produced: CrawlLedger assembled it automatically from append-only observation metadata and a versioned parser registry. Documentation and product boundaries were source-reviewed on Sep 20, 2026. No new network fetch, customer data, or legal interpretation was added for this export.
