Link scanning
Check the page behind the link.
Inspect a public HTTPS page for potential hidden instructions before using its content with AI.
Review a link in three steps.
- Choose Scan URL and enter a public HTTPS address, such as https://example.com.
- Start the scan. Review any findings and any note about redirects, missing content or truncated responses.
- Decide whether to use the page content. Save a report if you need a record.
Redirects and unavailable content matter.
| Situation | What to expect |
|---|---|
| Strict mode | Redirects are blocked before continuing to a different destination. Review the final address separately. |
| Lenient mode | Redirect handling is bounded and checks each destination. A redirect does not imply that the content is trusted. |
| Private or local address | Localhost, private networks and other non-public targets are rejected. |
| Partial response | Size limits or unavailable content can leave parts uninspected. Read coverage notes rather than treating a low score as approval. |
A page scan is one review step.
It is not an antivirus verdict, phishing certification or a guarantee about content loaded later. Keep normal browser protections and review the material you actually plan to send to AI.
