 ## Unreleased
 
-### Added
-
-- Page `metadata.robots` accepts boolean `index` and `follow` directives.
-  Next and Astro emit the corresponding HTML tag. Publish excludes pages with
-  `index: false` from the release sitemap.
-
-### Migration required
-
-- Existing Astro sites must install `@gradial/aci/astro/Head` and pass resolved
-  metadata as one object through their route and layout. Next sites must upgrade
-  the SDK and rebuild. See [page metadata migration](./migrations/page-metadata-head.md).
-  Packed starter HTML checks in `make test-frontend-contract` verify the tags.
-  Sitemap exclusion can precede an SDK upgrade. Inspect the rendered preview
-  before telling an author that `noindex` is present. No platform test currently
-  enforces that check on older site builds.
-
 ### Changed
 
 - Immutable code builds (`ACI_CODE_ARTIFACT_BUILD=1`) no longer read or compile

-Upgrade and rebuild each site before using `metadata.robots`. Backend sitemap

-
-## Astro integration
-
-Install the SDK-owned head component once. Future metadata fields then follow
-SDK upgrades through the same object.
-
-1. Import `Head` from `@gradial/aci/astro/Head` in the site layout.
-2. Replace individual metadata props with `meta: KernelRouteMetadata` from `@gradial/aci/content`.
-3. Render `<Head meta={meta} />` inside `<head>`.
-4. Remove the layout's title, description, canonical, robots, and Open Graph tags that `Head` now owns.
-5. Pass `meta={data.meta}` from the catch-all route.
-6. Pass `meta={errorPage.meta}` from the 404 and 500 seats.
-7. Keep site-owned charset, viewport, icons, scripts, and custom head tags.
-
-Use `packages/sdk/templates/astro/template/src/` as the integration reference.
-`getPageData` returns the complete resolved metadata object. No separate robots
-prop or serialized robots string is needed.
-
-## Verify the rendered output
-
-Verify the directive on the site build that will serve the content. This is a
-release check, not a claim that a search engine has removed a URL.
-
-1. Author `"metadata": { "robots": { "index": false, "follow": false } }` on a test page.
-2. Build the site and publish the test content.
-3. Check that the rendered preview has one robots tag containing `noindex, nofollow`.
-4. Check that the release sitemap excludes that page and retains an indexable control page.
-5. Check that robots.txt permits fetching the test page so crawlers can read its tag.
-6. Repeat against the active release after activation.
-
-`make test-frontend-contract` checks rendered HTML from packed Next and Astro
-starters. It does not certify a customer's older SDK or copied layout.
-Authoring integrations must inspect rendered preview HTML before claiming the
-directive is present. The companion Grady change must preserve this requirement.
