This is for strategy
Are you talking about the rope/handle that pulls up the lift? Or the rope that the robot eventually climbs?

PILOTS aren't allowed to release the climbing ROPE until the last 30 seconds, and even after that, can't reach through the PORT to touch the ROPE.

On the other hand, PILOTS are allowed to operate the LIFT with its rope handle. There's some debate over whether they can move a LIFT while a robot is interacting with it. There won't be a definitive answer on that until there's an official Q&A on it.
