https://www.ruby-lang.org/robots.txtcurrently returns 404, so the crawler policy is only implicit. This adds a staticrobots.txtthat explicitly allows all crawlers, including AI crawlers such as GPTBot, ClaudeBot and CCBot, as recommended by Layer 0 of the Evil Martians LLM discoverability scorecard (https://ruby.evilmartians.com/). Jekyll copies the file to_site/robots.txtas-is, verified withbundle exec jekyll build.The
Sitemap:line points tohttps://www.ruby-lang.org/sitemap.xml, which does not exist yet. It will be added in a separate task introducingjekyll-sitemap. ASitemapdirective pointing to a not-yet-existing URL is harmless.Generated with Claude Code
