How to verify Amzn-SearchBot

Amazon publishes no official IP list for Amzn-SearchBot, so a request can't be verified by address. Treat the user agent as a claim, not proof.

Block or allow Amzn-SearchBot in robots.txt

User-agent: Amzn-SearchBot
Disallow: /

Use Allow: / instead to explicitly permit it, or build a full file with the AI robots.txt generator. robots.txt is a request, not a lock: it only works for bots that honor it, and only real Amzn-SearchBot traffic would.
