- Verification
- Verified on bots.fyi. Treat this as a product/service identifier for user-initiated action traffic, not an automated training crawler.
- Spoofing risk
- User-agent strings can be spoofed. For allow-listing or low-friction rules, pair the published identifier with operator documentation or cryptographic verification when available.
Notes

Identification
- User-agent pattern:
GPT-Actions - Family: OpenAI
- Type: AI
- Kind: Agent
Common use
AI crawling, assistant retrieval, AI search, or model-supporting discovery depending on the user-agent.
Verification and handling
Verified on bots.fyi. Treat this as a product/service identifier for user-initiated action traffic, not an automated training crawler.
Directory guidance marks the risk level as Neutral and the blocking decision as Depends. Do not rely on the user-agent string alone because user-agent strings can be copied or spoofed.
Robots.txt handling: Unknown.
Evidence and Source
- Verified on bots.fyi. Treat this as a product/service identifier for user-initiated action traffic, not an automated training crawler.
- Match `GPT-Actions` as a case-insensitive substring in HTTP user-agent logs. Do not treat a user-agent match alone as proof of identity for allow-listing.
- AI crawling, assistant retrieval, AI search, or model-supporting discovery depending on the user-agent.
- User-agent strings can be spoofed. For allow-listing or low-friction rules, pair the published identifier with operator documentation or cryptographic verification when available.
