Frequently Asked Questions
Should I Block Gowikibot?

Almost none of the top websites we track have robots.txt rules for Gowikibot right now.
Does Gowikibot Follow Robots.txt Rules?
Yes. Gowikibot is expected to follow robots.txt rules, so a disallow rule is the right first move. Automatic Robots.txt adds and maintains that rule for you, and Agent Analytics confirms Gowikibot actually follows it.
Does Gowikibot Access Private Content?
Unknown. Gowikibot has no documented scope, so watch what it actually requests. Repeated hits on login or admin paths are the signal to block it.
Why Is Gowikibot Visiting My Website?
Nobody knows yet. Gowikibot is undocumented, so until its operator explains it, its behavior on your site is the only evidence of its intent.
How Can I Tell if Gowikibot Is Visiting My Website?
Agent Analytics tracks Gowikibot visits in real time alongside every other known AI agent, crawler, and scraper. You can also check your server logs for requests whose user agent string contains "Gowikibot". Log the paths it requests and how often, since nothing about it is documented. Keep in mind that Gowikibot doesn't publish a verification method, so any client can claim its user agent string and a log match is a hint rather than proof.
