How this service works
Fetch and parse robots.txt for a domain. Returns parsed allow/disallow rules per user-agent, sitemap URLs, crawl-delay directives, and raw content. Built for AI agents planning ethical web crawling and SEO audit. Use ?domain=example.com. Accepts payment on Base or Solana — either network works.
Output
Returns a structured breakdown of the robots.txt file including: allow and disallow rules grouped by user-agent, sitemap URLs, crawl-delay values per agent, and the raw robots.txt text content.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you fetch and parse the robots.txt for example.com and tell me which paths are disallowed for all crawlers, what the crawl delay is, and list any sitemap URLs?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.x402node.dev/web/robotsWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs to plan ethical web crawling by checking a site's crawl permissions before scraping, or when performing an SEO audit that requires inspecting robots.txt directives. Prefer this over manual fetching when structured parsing of allow/disallow rules, sitemap discovery, and crawl-delay extraction is needed in a single call.
Side effects
- Domain not found or unreachable — network or DNS error returned
- No robots.txt file exists at the domain — empty or 404 response
- Malformed robots.txt that cannot be parsed — partial or empty result
- Invalid domain parameter format — validation error returned
- Timeout fetching the remote file — timeout error returned
