surface-haystack
Surface is the link-safety layer between an AI agent and the open web. Before your agent opens a link someone pasted, Surface checks it: it unwraps short links (t.co, bit.ly, lnkd.in, youtu.be), follows the redirects, and answers fetch or skip, along with where the link really goes. It never downloads the page for you, so it's fast and cheap. If Surface can't be reached, the tool answers skip, so your agent stays safe.
This package gives Haystack agents that check as one ready-made tool: surface_preflight.
pip install surface-haystack
from surface_haystack import SurfacePreflight, surface_preflight
print(SurfacePreflight().run(url="https://youtu.be/jNQXAC9IVRw"))
# or give the Tool to a Haystack Agent / ToolInvoker: tools=[surface_preflight]
