It was thus said that the Great Jason McBrayer once stated:

This is cool, but when you stand it up, don't forget an appropriate
robots.txt!

Question---HTTP has the Use-Agent: header to help identify webbots, butGemini doesn't have that. How do I instruct a Gemini bot with robots.txt,when there's no way for a Gemini bot to identify itself?
