Summary

  • Adds three items to the README's Go Live Checklist, surfaced during a GEO strategy review: confirming dev/staging "don't index" settings are removed, that robots.txt/CDN isn't blocking search & AI retrieval bots, and that preview-control meta tags aren't overly restrictive.
  • These were previously unverified at launch time despite being easy to check and a common real-world launch mistake.

Test plan

  • Confirm the checklist renders correctly in README.md
  • Confirm existing checklist items are unchanged

Surfaced during the GEO strategy doc review: launch-time verification of
sitemap/robots indexing state, AI crawler access, and preview-control
meta tags was previously undocumented.

I really think it's a per-project decision from the client. I can imagine some business owners want the opposite on purpose.
