Biggest gains

  1. +10 Agents get the real page, not a bot wall. Serve the homepage to AI user-agents (Claude-User, ChatGPT-User) without a challenge or 403.
  2. +8 llms.txt exists. Publish /llms.txt: a markdown index of your docs at the root or docs host.
  3. +8 Machine-readable API spec. Publish an OpenAPI spec at a stable URL like /openapi.json and link it from llms.txt.

Your fix pack: 16 changes, up to +67 points

Each change is ready to paste, filled in for udemy.com, with a command to check it worked. Or hand the whole list to your coding agent.

Your homepage returned a challenge or 403 to a Claude-User agent. Agents acting for a person give up and pick a competitor.

Where: Your WAF or bot-management rules (Cloudflare, Akamai, Vercel Firewall, AWS WAF)
Cloudflare: Security > WAF > Custom rules > Create rule
  Name: Allow user-triggered AI agents
  Expression:
    (http.user_agent contains "Claude-User") or (http.user_agent contains "ChatGPT-User")
    or (http.user_agent contains "Perplexity-User") or (http.user_agent contains "OAI-SearchBot")
    or (http.user_agent contains "Claude-SearchBot")
  Action: Skip > All remaining custom rules, Super Bot Fight Mode, Browser Integrity Check

Also in Security > Bots: turn on "Allow verified bots".
Keep rate limits on; only the challenge page is the problem.
