Two of these columns matter differently. robots.txt is what the site declares. Live request is what actually happened when we sent a real request using that crawler's user agent from a datacentre IP, which is how edge blocking, rate limits and challenge pages show up even when robots.txt looks permissive.
Reach 28.3 / 40
✗
Edge returns 403, 429, or a challenge to AI user agents
Requests identifying as gptbot, oai-searchbot, perplexitybot, claudebot were refused at the edge (HTTP 403 Forbidden; HTTP 403 Forbidden; HTTP 403 Forbidden; HTTP 403 Forbidden).
Why it matters. A permissive robots.txt is irrelevant if the edge answers an AI user agent with 403, 429, or a JavaScript challenge. Retrieval fetchers do not solve interstitials, so the assistant records a fetch failure and answers from another source.
Fix. Fetch the page with each AI user agent string and compare the status and byte count against a browser request. On Cloudflare, check whether the "Block AI bots" toggle in AI Crawl Control, a Bot Fight Mode rule, or a WAF custom rule on `cf.verified_bot_category` is catching the request, then narrow it: block the training category and add a skip rule for the retrieval agents you want citing you. Verified bots must not be handed Managed Challenge, since a challenge is a hard failure for a non-browser client. Re-test after every WAF or bot-management change, because these toggles are applied zone-wide.

Answer-engine fetchers are blocked, so you cannot be cited
Blocked from citing you: cohere-ai.
Why it matters. Retrieval fetchers (OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, Claude-User, Claude-SearchBot, PerplexityBot, Perplexity-User) load a page at answer time to quote and link it. When robots.txt disallows them the assistant drops the URL from its candidate set, so the citation goes to a competitor while your training exposure stays exactly the same.
Fix. Separate the two crawler classes in robots.txt instead of blocking by vendor. Allow `OAI-SearchBot` and `ChatGPT-User` (OpenAI retrieval and user-initiated fetches), `Claude-SearchBot` and `Claude-User` (Anthropic retrieval), and `PerplexityBot` and `Perplexity-User`; keep any opt-out you want on `GPTBot`, `ClaudeBot`, `CCBot`, `Google-Extended`, and `Applebot-Extended`. Order does not decide precedence in RFC 9309 parsers, the longest matching rule does, so make the allow rules at least as specific as the disallow rules. Blocking retrieval buys nothing on training, because the training crawlers are separate user agents with separate rules.

Training crawlers are disallowed for this path
Blocked by robots.txt: GPTBot, ClaudeBot, anthropic-ai, Applebot-Extended, Meta-ExternalAgent, FacebookBot, Bytespider, Amazonbot, Diffbot, omgili, omgilibot, AI2Bot, cohere-training-data-crawler, Timpibot, ImagesiftBot.
Why it matters. GPTBot, ClaudeBot, and CCBot collect pages into pretraining corpora, and Google-Extended and Applebot-Extended are opt-out tokens that govern whether already-crawled pages may be used for Gemini and Apple Intelligence. Disallowing them removes your text from the corpora models generalise from, which is a policy choice, not a bug.
Fix. Decide this deliberately rather than by inheriting a template. If you want your content in model weights, remove the `Disallow: /` groups for `GPTBot`, `ClaudeBot`, `CCBot`, `Google-Extended`, and `Applebot-Extended`. If you do not, keep those groups but scope them to the paths that matter and leave retrieval fetchers untouched, because `Google-Extended` and `Applebot-Extended` only control training use and never affect search or answer citation. Record the decision somewhere durable so the next robots.txt edit does not silently reverse it.

Heading levels are missing, duplicated, or skipped
0 H1 and 52 headings total, 3 phrased as questions.
Why it matters. Chunkers split long pages on heading boundaries and carry the nearest heading into each chunk's metadata. A page with no `h1`, several competing `h1`s, or levels that skip from `h2` to `h4` produces chunks whose topic labels do not match their text, so retrieval matches the wrong passage.
Fix. Give every page one `h1` that names its subject, then nest `h2` and `h3` without skipping levels. Make each heading describe the section beneath it in words a reader would search for, rather than a label like "Overview". Style with CSS instead of choosing heading levels for their font size, and never use a heading tag for a caption or a button.

Visible text is a small fraction of the HTML payload
Text is 4.5% of the 414 KB document; 202 KB is inline script.
Why it matters. Extractors strip scripts, styles, and wrapper markup before passing text to a model, and a page where content is a small fraction of the payload loses more of it to boilerplate removal. Inline JSON state blobs and deeply nested wrappers also push real text past the truncation limit of a retrieval context.
Fix. Move inline hydration state and large inline scripts out of the document, or fetch them after load instead of embedding them. Flatten wrapper `div` trees and let semantic elements carry the content, and keep utility-class soup out of the article body. Serve the same text without the boilerplate at a stable URL if you need a clean extraction target.

No /llms.txt index of canonical pages
No /llms.txt.
Why it matters. `/llms.txt` is a markdown file that points an assistant at the canonical pages for a site, so retrieval does not depend on which page a search happened to return. Its format is fixed: one `#` title, a `>` blockquote summary, then `##` sections of markdown links with short notes.
Fix. Publish `/llms.txt` as `text/plain` markdown: an `#` H1 with the project name, a `>` blockquote summary, optional plain paragraphs of context, then `##` sections whose bullets are `[title](absolute-url): note`. Link the pages you want quoted, put lower-priority links under an `## Optional` section, and prefer URLs that also serve clean markdown. Keep it generated from the same source as your sitemap so it does not drift, and remember it is a hint for assistants, not an access control mechanism.

No machine-readable license or usage terms for the content
No licence declaration, so reuse terms are ambiguous.
Why it matters. A `license` property, or a linked terms page, states the reuse conditions in a place a crawler can read, rather than leaving them to be inferred. Where terms are unstated, some pipelines default to the more restrictive handling, which reduces how much of the text is quoted.
Fix. Add a `license` property to the page's structured data pointing at a specific license URL, such as a Creative Commons deed or your own terms page, and add `rel="license"` on the visible link. Use `usageInfo` for conditions that are not a standard license, such as attribution wording or an API-only clause. State the terms once, at a stable URL, and reference it from every page rather than restating it per template.
