Search index crawler from Timpi

# Timpibot

In short

Timpibot is Timpi's search index crawler. The token to write in robots.txt is Timpibot. The operator publishes nothing a site can check. 9.8 percent of 5,938 top-10,000 sites with a parsed robots.txt disallow it at the root (crawl of 2026-11-04). Timpibot's operator publishes no robots.txt statement; we checked on 2026-11-04.
