How this service works
Robots Meta Parse: Robots Meta Parse parses robots meta directives into normalized index and follow decisions from bounded caller-supplied values without an external provider. Call Robots Meta Parse before accepting, caching, redirecting, or retrying a caller-supplied web response. Returns normalized web evidence, the computed finding, and an explicit pass or advisory status for Robots Meta Parse as versioned deterministic JSON. Price: $0.001 USDC via x402 on Base. First-party, stateless, memor…
Output
A versioned deterministic JSON object containing normalized web evidence (the parsed robots meta tag values), the computed finding (index and follow decisions), and an explicit pass or advisory status indicating whether the caller should proceed with indexing, following, caching, or retrying the response.
Example use cases
Pre-cache robots directive check
“I'm about to cache this HTML page response — can you parse the robots meta tags from the content first to tell me if indexing and following are allowed?”
Crawl pipeline permission gate
“Before my crawler stores this page, check the robots meta directives in this HTML and tell me whether it's safe to index and follow the links.”
SEO audit robots tag validation
“I have the raw HTML of a landing page and I need to know what the robots meta tag is telling crawlers — parse it out and give me the normalized index and follow decisions.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.delx.ai/api/v1/x402/robots-meta-parseWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need a stateless, deterministic parse of robots meta directives embedded in HTML content — particularly in crawl pipelines, caching layers, or agent web-access workflows that need to check index/follow permissions before storing or acting on a fetched page. Prefer this over manual parsing when you need versioned, normalized JSON output and a clear pass/advisory status without writing your own directive logic.
Side effects
- Content exceeds 8192 character limit, returning a validation error
- No robots meta tag found in content, returning a default permissive or advisory result
- Malformed or ambiguous robots meta directives that cannot be cleanly normalized
- Empty content string submitted, resulting in an advisory or error status
