How to detect NBT Bot
NBT Bot signs its requests, so you detect it by verifying the cryptographic signature on each request. A valid signature proves the request came from MyStream Limited; a copied user agent without the signature does not.

How do you detect NBT Bot?
NBT Bot signs its requests, so you detect it by verifying the cryptographic signature on each request. A valid signature proves the request came from MyStream Limited; a copied user agent without the signature does not.
What is NBT Bot?
NBT Bot is an AI agent from MyStream Limited that works in a browser and signs its requests.
Does NBT Bot identify itself?
Yes. NBT Bot signs its requests cryptographically, which is the strongest way an agent can identify itself.
Can a bot pretend to be NBT Bot?
Not convincingly. A bot can copy NBT Bot's user agent, but without MyStream Limited signing keys its requests fail verification and it is not labeled NBT Bot.
How common is NBT Bot?
Very uncommon. Rare, brand new, or not seen on Verisoul traffic yet.
What does the Verisoul API return for NBT Bot?
Every session Verisoul identifies as NBT Bot carries an agent block with id "nbt_bot", name, provider, type "ai_agent", detection_method "signed" and the detection_signals used (cryptographic, behavioral). Build rules on the id, type and detection method.
