Robots Radar is a Chrome extension designed to provide real-time analysis of a website's robots.txt file, enabling users to see if search engine bots can crawl the current page. The tool features a color-coded icon in the Chrome toolbar that automatically indicates the crawling status with green, red, or teal colors, depending on whether the path is allowed, disallowed, or if no robots.txt file is found. This functionality operates seamlessly on every page load without requiring user interaction.

The extension adheres to Google's specifications for robots.txt parsing and evaluates paths based on a prioritized set of bot rules. Additional features include an animated radar sweep during scanning, a toggle for dark and light modes, and a detailed view of matched bot groups and rules when clicking the toolbar icon. Robots Radar prioritizes user privacy by ensuring no data is collected or shared during its operations.
