crawlcheck (Python)

Before your agent reads, cites, connects to or transacts with a domain, ask CrawlCheck. No dependencies; Python 3.8+.

pip install https://crawlcheck.io/sdk/crawlcheck-1.0.1-py3-none-any.whl

from crawlcheck import CrawlCheck

cc = CrawlCheck()                      # CrawlCheck(key="cc_...") for licensed detail
answer = cc.resolve("example.com")     # signed ResolveV1: policy, delivery, files, capabilities, entity, freshness, actions
print(answer["actions"]["read"]["decision"])

receipt = cc.preflight("example.com", action="cite", agent="GPTBot", template="safe_citation")
print(receipt["decision"], [s["why"] for s in receipt["steps"]])
assert cc.verify(receipt)["verified"]  # Ed25519, checked locally; the key must be in the published directory

ok, receipt = cc.guard("shop.example", action="transact", confirm=lambda r: input(r["meaning"] + " y/n? ") == "y")

Command line: python -m crawlcheck preflight example.com cite GPTBot, python -m crawlcheck verify receipt.json.

Decisions: allow, warn, require_confirmation, block, unsupported. A policy (max_age_hours, on_warn, require_entity, human_approval, allow, deny) can only make a decision stricter.
