How to Control AI Bot Access

The AI Bot Access Control section lets you choose which listed AI bots can access your LLMs.txt file.

In this guide

  • Find AI Bot Access Control
  • Understand checked and unchecked bots
  • Select individual bots
  • Select or deselect all bots
  • Save your configuration

Open AI Bot Access Control

Go to:

SEO Repair Kit → Bot Manager → LLMs.txt

Find:

AI Bot Access Control


Understand Bot Access

Each listed bot has a checkbox.

The interface explains that unchecked bots are blocked through server-level checks and robots.txt rules.

It also states that bots not listed in this section are allowed by default.

Therefore, review the available bots carefully according to how you want the site configured.


Select Individual AI Bots

Check the box beside a bot you want enabled according to Bot Manager’s access-control workflow.

The current interface lists:

  • ChatGPT (GPTBot)
  • ChatGPT User
  • Claude (Anthropic)
  • Google Bard/Gemini
  • Perplexity AI
  • Bing Chat/Copilot
  • You.com
  • Character.AI
  • CCBot (Common Crawl)
  • Anthropic AI
  • DeepSeek
  • Grok (xAI)
  • Qwen AI (Alibaba)
  • Meta Llama
  • Cohere
  • Mistral AI
  • Hugging Face

Note: Bot/service names and available controls can change between plugin versions. Document the options shown in the current Bot Manager interface.


Deselect All Bots

The section provides:

Deselect All

Use this when you intentionally want to clear all currently selected AI bot options.

Review the note below the bot list before doing so because unchecked bots are subject to the blocking behavior described by the interface.


Save the Configuration

After changing bot access:

  1. Review the selected bots.
  2. Configure the content you want included in LLMs.txt.
  3. Click Save Settings.
  4. Generate LLMs.txt again if the file needs to reflect the updated configuration.
  5. Review and save the generated file.
