Page sets max-snippet:0 or max-image-preview:none
max-snippet and max-image-preview are directives, set either through a robots meta tag or the X-Robots-Tag HTTP header, that control how much of your page's text and images Google is allowed to show directly in search results. This check found your page sets max-snippet:0 or max-image-preview:none, both of which sharply restrict what Google can display.
Why this matters
A restrictive max-snippet value limits how much text Google can show in results. Google has said content shown in AI features follows the same snippet controls, so a low limit may reduce how your content can be displayed there too. It is often set unintentionally by a security or 'block AI' plugin rather than as a deliberate content decision.
How to fix it
Your developer needs about 15-20 minutes. Check where the directive is set, either the robots meta tag or the X-Robots-Tag header, and change it to max-snippet:-1 to allow Google and AI Overviews to display your content fully, unless restricting snippets was a deliberate choice.
