I selfhost Gitea. The instance is crawled by AI crawlers (checked the IPs). They never cloned, they just browse and take it directly from there.

For reference, this is how I do it in my Caddyfile:

   (block_ai) {
       @ai_bots {
           header_regexp User-Agent (?i)(anthropic-ai|ClaudeBot|Claude-Web|Claude-SearchBot|GPTBot|ChatGPT-User|Google-Extended|CCBot|PerplexityBot|ImagesiftBot)
       }

       abort @ai_bots
   }

Then, in a specific app block include it via

   import block_ai

    I have almost exactly this in my own caddyfile :-D The order of the items in the regex is a little different but mostly the same items. I just pulled them from my web access logs over time and update it every once in a while.

i run a cgit server on an r720 in my apartment with my code on it and that puppy screams whenever sam wants his code

blocking openai ips did wonders for the ambient noise levels in my apartment. they're not the only ones obviously, but they're they only ones i had to block to stay sane
