Key facts

User-agent token: LinerBot
Indexing: Crawled for AI or search indexing.
No IP verification is published for LinerBot; treat the token as a claim.

What LinerBot is

LinerBot builds Liner's search and reference index and follows its own robots.txt group. Liner documents HTTP Message Signatures; its IP feed is empty. Liner also documents a separate fetcher for user requests, with its own robots.txt group and signing key. LinerBot rules do not control that fetcher.

In Aiola's taxonomy, Indexing means crawled for ai or search indexing.

Verify a LinerBot request

Use the exact header token for classification and apply your own access controls. Check the vendor documentation for any newly published IP, token or header verification method.

Control LinerBot with robots.txt

Liner documents crawler controls for this bot family. Robots.txt can direct cooperative crawling, but it cannot prove that a request is authentic.
