+#### Page Middleware Configuration
+
+Use `config.server_pages` to configure the underlying [`Rack::ServerPages`](https://github.com/migrs/rack-server-pages) middleware in an initializer, before `SlackRubyBotServer::Api::Middleware.instance` is first accessed. The block receives its configuration object after the framework applies `view_paths`, so it can customize any option supported by your installed `rack-server-pages` version.
+
+For example, with `rack-server-pages` 0.3.0 or newer:
+
+```ruby
+SlackRubyBotServer.configure do |config|
+  config.server_pages do |pages|
+    pages.cache_control = 'private, no-cache'
+    pages.static_cache_control = 'public, no-cache'
+  end
+end
+```
+
+`cache_control` sets the default `Cache-Control` header for rendered templates, including generated CSS. `static_cache_control` sets it for static files. `no-cache` allows storage but requires revalidation before reuse; use `private, no-store` for sensitive pages. You can also configure `static_etags` and `static_timestamps` with version 0.3.0 or newer. These settings do not change downstream API responses.
+
+Without a block, the framework preserves the installed library's defaults and existing `view_paths` behavior. Registering another block replaces the previous one, and `SlackRubyBotServer::Config.reset!` clears it. The block runs when the middleware stack is built, not on each request. If you change configuration after initialization, rebuild the stack with `SlackRubyBotServer::Api::Middleware.reset!`; configure it before startup in production.
+
 ### Access Tokens
 
 By default the implementation of [Team](lib/slack-ruby-bot-server/models/team) stores the value of the token with all the requested OAuth scopes in both `token` and `activated_user_access_token` (for backwards compatibility), along with `oauth_version` and `oauth_scope`. If a legacy Slack bot integration `bot_access_token` is present, it is stored as `token`, and `activated_user_access_token` is the token that has all the requested OAuth scopes.
