From ed6af835306bb1e02aec504debfe90cbd8f0be72 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: andyman01 Date: Sat, 29 Aug 2026 20:34:05 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add Diffbot-User MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Diffbot documents two separate user agents. The list currently has only the proactive crawler; this adds the user-triggered one. From Diffbot's own documentation: Diffbot-User — This is used by requests originating on behalf of a human user browsing a URL using Diffbot software, in response to their input. Source: https://docs.diffbot.com/docs/does-crawl-respect-robotstxt Same distinction as GPTBot / ChatGPT-User and PerplexityBot / Perplexity-User, so it is classified as an AI Assistant fetching only when prompted by a user. Observed in the robots.txt of five independent publishers in four countries: nytimes.com, bbc.co.uk, lefigaro.fr, corriere.it and usatoday.com.
