# Polaris

Blocks GPTBot and ClaudeBot in robots.txt with noai meta tags on every page, then routes all AI consumption through Shopify's own gated toolkit. Tells the model it cannot trust its trained knowledge.

## Edges

- holds -> Block the crawlers and route all consumption through one gated toolkit., Gate the task. Make the agent call a tool, run a CLI, pass a validator.
- maintained_by -> Shopify
- ships -> Agent skills, MCP servers, Open discovery or walled garden, Tool gating, Validation loops
