- Public catalog pages (/discover, /p/*)
- Learn and guides pages (/learn/*)
- Changelog pages (/changelog, /changelog/*)

- Homepage, templates, tools sections

## Non-public content (do not index or reproduce)
- Authenticated user library data
- Unpublished submissions
- Private moderation data
- Full raw DESIGN.md downloads where access is gated behind login

## Preferred crawl behavior
