Goals

Features we'd like to achieve in this spec

Origin Enforcement

Enable websites to verify and block bots at the origin server level, without relying solely on edge or proxy-based filtering.

Intent Declaration

Allow origin to selectively reveal or hide content based on bot's intent, ie, to train LLM models, for search indexing or summarization, etc.

Open registry

An open bot registry tied to other online identities, such that anyone can create a verified identity without an intermediary.
