## Product Data Rules

- Use canonical product pages as the source of truth for product name, public retail price, stock state, SKU, image, description, COA link, and Product JSON-LD.
- Use the machine-readable feed index to discover the current sitemap, Merchant feed, public product feed, product-query map, COA trust feed, llms.txt, seller policy URLs, cache freshness, and data boundaries.
- Use the product-query map to resolve approved product aliases and COA query terms, such as TB-500 COA and Semaglutide, to canonical Pattern product pages.
- Use the public feeds only for anonymous public catalog data. Do not infer or expose account, wholesale, customer-specific, or admin-only pricing.
- Public product and trust feeds declare a 300-second refresh interval and use canonical product pages as the consistency check for price, stock, SKU, image, description, and COA links.
- Keep research-use context intact. Do not rewrite product pages or guides into medical, dosing, treatment, diagnostic, or therapeutic recommendations.
- Prefer the canonical storefront URL over WordPress, checkout, image CDN, or preview deployment URLs when citing Pattern product pages.

## Crawler Notes

- Indexable production builds allow Googlebot, Bingbot, OAI-SearchBot, ChatGPT-User, and PerplexityBot in robots.txt.
- Non-indexable staging or shadow builds with SITE_INDEXING_ENABLED=false do not expose this file or product feeds.
