## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

### What It Does

Detect conflicts between robots.txt blocking and page-level meta/X-Robots noindex signals.

This local package is part of the Junipr Apify actors 171-200 premium build for ChatGPT review.

### What It Does Not Do

- It does not call live Apify APIs.
- It does not publish, upload Store assets, create public tasks, or configure live PPE.
- It does not claim publish readiness.
- It does not make unbounded network calls in the supplied examples path.

### Input Fields

Seed shape: domains or URLs, maxDomains, timeoutMs, strictMode, includeSummary

The tiny fixture is available at `examples/input.tiny.json` and mirrored at `fixtures/input.tiny.json` for the local runner.

### Output Fields

- `url`
- `robotsUrl`
- `statusCode`
- `userAgent`
- `directiveType`
- `directiveValue`
- `issueType`
- `severity`
- `evidence`
- `recommendation`

### Public Task Examples

#### Find robots.txt and noindex conflicts

- Search intent: find robots.txt and noindex conflicts
- Specific input: Fixture input shaped for find robots.txt and noindex conflicts.
- Expected output: Dataset rows with url, robotsUrl, statusCode, userAgent plus local KVS report evidence.
- Why run it: SEO teams, agencies, site auditors would run this to get a bounded local proof before any live Apify review or production use.

#### Check private pages blocked from noindex discovery

- Search intent: check private pages blocked from noindex discovery
- Specific input: Fixture input shaped for check private pages blocked from noindex discovery.
- Expected output: Dataset rows with url, robotsUrl, statusCode, userAgent plus local KVS report evidence.
- Why run it: SEO teams, agencies, site auditors would run this to get a bounded local proof before any live Apify review or production use.

#### Review crawler directives against page headers

- Search intent: review crawler directives against page headers
- Specific input: Fixture input shaped for review crawler directives against page headers.
- Expected output: Dataset rows with url, robotsUrl, statusCode, userAgent plus local KVS report evidence.
- Why run it: SEO teams, agencies, site auditors would run this to get a bounded local proof before any live Apify review or production use.

#### Prepare SEO conflict rows for a launch checklist

- Search intent: prepare seo conflict rows for a launch checklist
- Specific input: Fixture input shaped for prepare seo conflict rows for a launch checklist.
- Expected output: Dataset rows with url, robotsUrl, statusCode, userAgent plus local KVS report evidence.

### Tests

- Actor-specific fixture tests live in `test/robots-noindex-conflict-checker.test.ts`.
- Node-based local suites validate dataset schema conformance, output samples, local smoke runs, and PPE guard behavior.

### FAQ

#### Is this live on Apify?

No. This is a local package for ChatGPT review only.

#### Is it publish-ready?

No. It needs later live tiny-run validation and console configuration before any publication decision.
