📄 Description

Summary

Add Conduit to the Web Crawling section.

Conduit is a free, MIT-licensed headless browser for Python that adds cryptographic audit trails to browser automation and web crawling:

  • SHA-256 hash chain linking every action into a tamper-evident log
  • Ed25519 digital signatures for proof of session integrity
  • Self-verifiable proof bundles exportable as JSON for independent verification
  • BFS crawler with robots.txt compliance and budget enforcement
  • MCP server for AI agent integration (Claude, GPT, etc.)
  • Built on Patchright (stealth Playwright fork) for reliable modern web automation

Install: pip install conduit-browser

Hidden Gem Justification

Conduit solves a problem no other Python browser automation tool addresses: cryptographic proof of what happened during a browser session. Every action is SHA-256 hash-chained and Ed25519 signed, producing self-verifiable proof bundles that anyone can independently verify without trusting the tool or operator.

This is uniquely valuable for:

  • AI agent accountability (proving what autonomous agents did)
  • Compliance auditing of automated browser workflows
  • Digital forensics involving web-based activity

No other tool in the Web Crawling section (or on PyPI) provides tamper-evident, cryptographically signed browser session logs.

Note: This list already includes browser-use for AI browser automation. Conduit serves a different purpose -- it focuses on cryptographic accountability and tamper-evident proof for browser sessions, rather than making websites accessible for AI agents.
