87# AI/LLM Bots - Homepage Access
88# Homepage and regional homepages only. The $ makes each Allow an exact match
89# so it beats "Disallow: /"; without it the rule is a prefix match and opens
90# everything under that route. /region/ is a 302 to /region and needs its own
91# rule, since robots.txt is checked before the redirect can be followed.
