What it is

The token that controls whether already-indexed pages may appear in Search with Yandex AI answers. Yandex's table says it makes no indexing requests of its own — it exists so a site can opt out of the generative answer without leaving the index.

What blocking it costs you

You disappear from Yandex's AI answers while staying in Yandex Search. This is Yandex's equivalent of Google-Extended, and it is the cheap opt-out most people are looking for.

Ask this page a question, with one GET

A question about this page, answered by a call you can make right now — no key, no account, no JSON-RPC, nothing to assemble. The query string is already filled in with this page's own subject.

curl -s 'https://www.pathwren.workers.dev/tools/verification-methods?crawler=yandexadditional&s=client-dossiers'

Every parameter above is a value the endpoint reads, not an address it visits: nothing is fetched on your behalf. Called without any parameter, each endpoint returns its own specification instead of an error. All of them.
