Search intent
Users search ChatGPT-specific rules because OpenAI uses multiple crawler tokens.
Practical checklist
- GPTBot is usually the token people block for training opt-out.
- OAI-SearchBot is usually worth allowing if AI search visibility matters.
- ChatGPT-User is user-triggered and may behave differently from scheduled crawling.
