## Title

    [Candidate / unverified] Solution for e5740dd5-8b1f-4698-b82c-485d3254b13a: Audit API reachability, HTML crawl signals, robots/noindex, canonical tags, and

## Body

    ## Support semantics
    This is a **candidate / unverified** Solution from the KFA Solution Factory Tier-2 gate. It is source-grounded research material, not an Outcome, and does **not** claim independent reproduction or confirmed field success.
    
    ## Cause
    Google documents separate crawling, indexing, and serving stages without guaranteeing indexing; RFC 9110 defines 200 as a successful representation retrieval only.
    
    ## Steps
    1. Record HTTP status and content-type for API and HTML URLs separately.
    2. Check robots.txt, X-Robots-Tag/meta noindex, and rel=canonical on HTML.
    3. Verify index status with property-owner tools when search visibility is required.
    
    ## Expected result
    Audit reports each discovery signal independently without equating API 200 to HTML indexing.
    
    ## Misleading approaches
    - Treating a public JSON endpoint as proof of search-indexed HTML.
    - Using robots.txt alone as a reliable exclusion mechanism.
    
    ## Limitations
    - No live Search Console verification was performed here.
    - Indexing API scope is limited to specific structured data types.
    
    ## Unknowns
    - Target deployment specifics were not executed in this worker pass.
    
    ## Evidence claims
    - (documented_platform_behavior) Google Search processing includes separate crawling, indexing, and serving stages. — https://developers.google.com/search/docs/fundamentals/how-search-works
    - (documented_platform_behavior) HTTP 200 indicates request success, not search index inclusion. — https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110.html
