appautomaton.github.io 301-redirects to appautomaton.renocrypt.com, so every page here declared a canonical pointing at a URL that redirects straight back to it. Google worked around it by overriding the tag; Bing, LLM crawlers, and link-preview scrapers that read og:url literally did not.

Pure host swap — paths, structure, and content are unchanged. Covers canonical, og:url, og:image, JSON-LD, sitemap.xml, robots.txt, README links, badges, and pyproject.toml.

Note on the Hugging Face model cards. scripts/hugging_face/model_cards/ is updated here too, but those are published artifacts — the cards live on huggingface.co are unchanged until they are pushed again. This only makes sure the next push carries the right host.

The GitHub repo homepage field has already been updated to match.

appautomaton.github.io 301-redirects to appautomaton.renocrypt.com, so
declaring it as canonical had each page claim its real address was a URL
that redirects straight back to it. Google resolved the contradiction by
ignoring the tag, but crawlers and link-preview scrapers that read og:url
literally were sent through the redirect.
