The geopilot crawler
If you found this page in your logs: someone ran geopilot against your site.
User-Agent: geopilot/<version> (+https://moelzanaty3.github.io/geopilot/docs/crawler)- It is a local command-line tool run by a person, not a hosted service. There is no central crawler.
- It reads
/robots.txtfirst and obeys rules for the product tokengeopilot(or*). A 5xx or unreachable robots.txt is treated as a full disallow. - It fetches at most two requests at a time per host, 250 ms apart, honours
Crawl-delayup to 2 seconds, and stops at 25 pages by default. - It never impersonates another crawler.
- An operator can override robots.txt only for a target they name on the command line, and that override is recorded in their report.
To opt out, add to your robots.txt:
User-agent: geopilot
Disallow: /
