Allow /api/llms.txt explicitly.
The more specific disallow: "/api/" rule overrides allow: "/", so /api/llms.txt remains blocked. Add an explicit allow entry for /api/llms.txt while keeping the other /api/ paths disallowed.
This follows the PR objective that /api/llms.txt remains allowed while other /api/ paths remain blocked.

Removes the
Disallow: /_next/rule from both robots surfaces:apps/docs/src/app/robots.ts(docs.superset.sh / docs.boid.so)apps/marketing/src/app/robots.txt/route.ts(superset.sh / boid.so)/api/stays blocked (with the/api/llms.txtallow exception), as do the docs llms paths.Why
Search Console flagged "Blocked by robots.txt" on the boid.so domain property: a woff2 font on docs.boid.so under
/_next/static/, blocked by the/_next/disallow. Google's guidance is to not block the CSS/JS/font assets it needs to render pages.Blocking
/_next/at all turns out to be cargo cult, none of the reference Next.js production sites do it (checked live): vercel.com and linear.app block only/api/-style paths, nextjs.org blocks nothing. Assets aren't indexable as pages, so the disallow bought nothing and cost rendering fidelity plus recurring GSC warnings.Verification
docs.boid.so/_next/static/...woff2font)./_next/./_next/, then "Validate fix" in GSC clears the report.Summary by CodeRabbit
/_next/, improving page rendering and indexing.
