 - Only scrape content you're authorized to access.
-- Respect robots.txt and ToS.
-- Add delays (download_delay) for large crawls.
+- Respect robots.txt and ToS. Use `robots_txt_obey = True` on spiders to enforce this automatically.

 1. The **Spider** produces the first batch of `Request` objects. By default, it creates one request for each URL in `start_urls`, but you can override `start_requests()` for custom logic.
 2. The **Scheduler** receives requests and places them in a priority queue, and creates fingerprints for them. Higher-priority requests are dequeued first.
-3. The **Crawler Engine** asks the **Scheduler** to dequeue the next request, respecting concurrency limits (global and per-domain) and download delays.

+3. The **Crawler Engine** asks the **Scheduler** to dequeue the next request, respecting concurrency limits (global and per-domain) and download delays. If `robots_txt_obey` is enabled, the engine checks the domain's robots.txt rules before proceeding -- disallowed requests are dropped silently. Once the **Crawler Engine** receives the request, it passes it to the **Session Manager**, which routes it to the correct session based on the request's `sid` (session ID).
 4. The **session** fetches the page and returns a [Response](../fetching/choosing.md#response-object) object to the **Crawler Engine**. The engine records statistics and checks for blocked responses. If the response is blocked, the engine retries the request up to `max_blocked_retries` times. Of course, the blocking detection and the retry logic for blocked requests can be customized.
 5. The **Crawler Engine** passes the [Response](../fetching/choosing.md#response-object) to the request's callback. The callback either yields a dictionary, which gets treated as a scraped item, or a follow-up request, which gets sent to the scheduler for queuing.
 6. The cycle repeats from step 2 until the scheduler is empty and no tasks are active, or the spider is paused.

 When a request is filtered out, it's counted in `stats.offsite_requests_count` so you can see how many were dropped.
 
+## Robots.txt Compliance
+
+Set `robots_txt_obey = True` to make the spider respect robots.txt rules before crawling any domain:
+
+```python
+class PoliteSpider(Spider):
+    name = "polite"
+    start_urls = ["https://example.com"]
+    robots_txt_obey = True
+
+    async def parse(self, response: Response):
+        for link in response.css("a::attr(href)").getall():
+            yield response.follow(link, callback=self.parse)
+```
+
+When enabled, the spider will:
+
+1. **Pre-fetch robots.txt** for all domains in `start_urls` before the crawl begins (concurrently).
+2. **Check every request** against the domain's robots.txt `Disallow` rules. Disallowed requests are silently dropped and counted in `stats.robots_disallowed_count`.
+3. **Respect `Crawl-delay` and `Request-rate` directives** by taking the maximum of the directive and your configured `download_delay`. This means robots.txt delays never reduce your configured delay, only increase it when needed.
+
+Robots.txt files are fetched using the spider's default session and cached per domain for the entire crawl. Domains discovered mid-crawl (not in `start_urls`) have their robots.txt fetched on the first request to that domain.
+
+**Note:** `robots_txt_obey` is turned off by default. It does not affect your concurrency settings -- only the delay between requests is adjusted.
