# Turnkey Remediation Guide for descope.com

## Step 1: Publish AI-Search Discovery Files (5 Minutes)
Place `llms.txt` and `llms-full.txt` in your site's root `/public` directory so they resolve at:
- `https://descope.com/llms.txt`
- `https://descope.com/llms-full.txt`

## Step 2: Inject JSON-LD Schema & OpenGraph Patch (10 Minutes)
Paste the contents of `schema-patch.html` into your root layout `<head>` (Next.js `app/layout.tsx`, Shopify `theme.liquid`, WordPress `header.php`, or Webflow Custom Code).

## Step 3: Update `robots.txt` for AI Answer Engines (3 Minutes)
Replace `/robots.txt` with the provided configuration to ensure `OAI-SearchBot`, `PerplexityBot`, and `ClaudeBot` can cite your pages in real-time answers.

## Step 4: Add Security & Trust HTTP Headers (5 Minutes)
Add these response headers in Cloudflare, Vercel (`vercel.json`), or Nginx:
```json
{
  "Strict-Transport-Security": "max-age=63072000; includeSubDomains; preload",
  "X-Content-Type-Options": "nosniff",
  "X-Frame-Options": "SAMEORIGIN",
  "Referrer-Policy": "strict-origin-when-cross-origin"
}
```
