Logs for #nikola for 2026-06-01

17:06:56 <andydj> Heya Nikola peeps. Is there a way to customise the output robots.txt created during "nikola build" to contain exclusions for AI bot usera agents, or alternatively, prevent it from being generated at all?
19:57:21 <ChrisWarrick> andydj: if you have your own in /files/robots.txt, Nikola won't generate one for you
20:36:12 <andydj> ChrisWarrick: great, thanks. That's what I've done for now (just substituted what was in there for one that "blocks" all the AI agents, at least the ones that take any notice of it). It's good to know that Nikola won't clobber it. Thanks for the tip, and thanks for the software! You the man!
20:41:15 <ChrisWarrick> andydj: you’re welcome!
