1. Missing Machine Signals Detected on superdoc.dev

`/llms-full.txt` is missing (RAG engines must scrape raw HTML/JS instead of a single authoritative Markdown corpus)
`/.well-known/ai.txt`, `/ai/summary.json`, and `/ai/faq.json` are all missing (0/4 machine discovery endpoints present)
`/robots.txt` does not explicitly allow AI search crawlers (`OAI-SearchBot`, `GPTBot`, `ClaudeBot`, `PerplexityBot`, `Google-Extended`)
Homepage JSON-LD is missing `WebSite` structured entity schemas
