* Data Transmitted: When an incoming request matches a known AI crawler (e.g., GPTBot) or triggers the invisible honeypot trap, the plugin sends client IP address, User-Agent header string, requested URL path, and Authorization Bearer header (if provided).
* Purpose: Verifies whether the automated crawler holds valid authorization keys to access content and logs honeypot scraper violations. Standard residential human visitors experience zero external network calls.
