MIndie-Agent: An IndieAuth Bot

Published by Matthew Turner on

I have successfully built a viable MIndie-Agent!

Now I know what many of you might be thinking: "why would you build a bot for IndieAuth? That is supposed to be for humans only!" I did it so that I could authenticate Webmentions, but that is a topic for another day. What this proves is that the IndieAuth protocol cannot guarentee that it is a human logging in. Better that I discover it now than for some malicious actor down the road to realize it.

Webmentions Received
