Score breakdown
Popularity is tracked separately. Support, ads, sponsorships, and tips never affect these signals.
Why it matters
Useful for AI agent developers, AI app teams, automation engineers, and platform engineers who need a self-hostable, multi-tenant, RBAC-audited gateway that exposes curated web access to Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and Zed via a single MCP endpoint, an OpenAI-compatible REST surface, or a WebSocket/SSE event stream — with a 52-platform channel registry that already covers web

Risk explanation
Some Tier 1 channels (Twitter, Reddit, Bilibili, Xiaohongshu, Instagram, LinkedIn, Discord, Telegram, Spotify, Twitch, Scholar, Podcasts, OpenAI, Anthropic, Brave, Bing, Google, Notion, Slack, Flight) need a per-channel API key or cookie — keep the cookie file outside the agent's writable workspace and rotate cookies per the upstream platform's policy, otherwise session-cookie exfiltration to an LLM is an immediate compliance event on multi-user / multi-tenant workstations; The 52 channels are 'reader/search' only by design — AgentSpan is not a browser-automation agent (no click, no login, no form fill); use Browser-Use or Playwright for those workflows. The README's 'What AgentSpan is not' section is the canonical reference; The 2 MiB request-body cap and the global in-flight concurrency shedder can return 503s under bursty load — keep a higher-tier concurrency budget on the host (raise `AGENTSPAN_MAX_INFLIGHT` in `.env.example`) if you front the gateway with a fan-out agent that issues many parallel reads, and review the `x-trace-id` / audit event stream before promoting the gateway to multi-tenant production access.
