User-Agent

Authory

User-agent strings are identity signals, not proof of identity. Confirm the source and behavior before trusting a request.

Verification and Detection

Verification method: Verify Authory by matching `Authory` to a public crawler reference or source-linked documentation, then checking reverse DNS, IP ownership, request behavior, and crawl consistency.

Authory traffic is primarily detected by the `Authory` user-agent pattern; related patterns include `Authory/`; a representative HTTP user-agent is `Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Authory/1.0; +https://authory.com/)`. Compare source IPs, reverse DNS, request paths, and crawl cadence before trusting the traffic.

Handling Guidance

Use this record as identity context. Verify the request source, behavior, and relevance to your site before allowing or restricting traffic.

Authory is used for RSS or Atom feed polling, syndication refresh, subscription delivery, and content update checks.
