+## Generate a new robots.txt file and add it to the static directory
+
+The `robots.txt` that ships by default is permissive. It allows well-behaved search engines to index all of your instance's URIs.
+
+If you want to generate a restrictive `robots.txt`, you can run the following mix task. The generated `robots.txt` will be written in your instance [static directory](../../../configuration/static_dir/).
+
+```elixir tab="OTP"
+./bin/pleroma_ctl robots_txt disallow_all
+```
+
+```elixir tab="From Source"
+mix pleroma.robots_txt disallow_all
+```
