RepoLookoutBot

Listed only

Repo Lookout is a non-commercial internet-wide security scanner that looks for source-code repositories accidentally exposed to the public web and reports them to the domain's technical contact. The operator documents the scanner's user-agent prefix and offers two opt-outs: an email request, or denying every request whose user agent starts with RepoLookoutBot.
