WHOLE ANTIDETECT CATALOG ============================================================================ 2ND ED., 1ST PRINTING. Corrected to 2026-08-14. Field check 2026-08-14T09:12:00Z. 153 entries in 10 sections. Published at https://awesomeantidetect.com/data/ under CC0-1.0 — public domain, no attribution required. WHAT THIS IS ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A register of anti-detect browsers, stealth automation patches, detection test pages, fingerprinting and TLS libraries, papers, datasets and the anti-bot vendors on the other side of the problem. Every entry carries a licence, a maintenance state and the dated fields that state was derived from. The maintenance state is DERIVED, never asserted, never supplied by whoever submitted the entry. Recompute it from the measured columns and this file must agree with the printed page; where it does not, the register is wrong and the correction is issued as an errata leaf against a named edition. This file contains no score, no percentile, no rarity figure and no comparison against any population of tools, because this register has measured none. It contains no detection-test results: no entry here has been run against any anti-bot vendor by this register. FILES ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- registry.json the whole payload, header + schema + sections + entries registry.csv one row per entry, columns in the order printed below README.md this file EDITIONS AND PRINTINGS ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- A new EDITION when a threshold, a source field or an endpoint changes — when the rule changes. A new PRINTING when only the data is re-swept — when the world changes. The two numbers answer two different questions, and every row carries the field check instant it was read at. Rubric in force: Second edition, since 2026-08-14. Printed in full at https://awesomeantidetect.com/method/ ; the superseded first edition stays in print at https://awesomeantidetect.com/method/1/ so any state it set can be audited against it. THE THRESHOLDS THAT PRODUCE A STATE ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEAD the last HTTP check returned 400 or worse, or did not complete — or the repository has no push within 1095 days WITHDRAWN the URL answers with a permanent redirect to another entry ARCHIVED GitHub archived flag is true NRND pushed 365–1095 days before the field check — or pushed more than 180 days ago while an entry in this registry declares it superseded and that successor is ACTIVE SEMI pushed 90–365 days before the field check ACTIVE pushed within 90 days of the field check Fallback when pushed_at was not captured the latest release date stands in for the push date Non-repository entries state comes from the HTTP check alone: 200–399 is ACTIVE, 400 and worse is DEAD SCHEMA ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Provenance classes: MEASURED Read from the endpoint named beside it, at the field-check instant. Never guessed: a field the sweep did not capture is null. DERIVED Computed from measured fields by the rubric in force. Recomputable from this same file; nothing here is stored by hand. TRANSCRIBED Copied from the source itself — its own name, its own URL, its own words condensed to one sentence. Not a claim this register makes. EDITORIAL The curator's decision: placement, keying, declared relations, flags and the signed annotation. The only opinion in the payload. 15 of the 38 columns carry a fetch date: they are readings taken at checked_at and at no other instant. They are marked [dated] below. A field the sweep did not capture is null. It is never guessed. slug (string) [editorial] source: Curator, signed The key this entry is filed under. Stable across printings; a slug is never reused for a different project. name (string) [transcribed] source: The project, at its own URL Spelled as the project spells it, including capitalisation the register would otherwise normalise. url (string) [transcribed] source: The project, at its own URL The exact URL the link check was made against. Where a vendor host refuses automated clients, this is the docs host and the substitution is carried in flags. section (string (01–10)) [editorial] source: Curator, signed One of ten sections. An entry sits in exactly one; cross-topic entries are placed where a reader would look first, not where they fit best. section_slug (string) [editorial] source: Curator, signed The section's URL segment, so a row can be joined back to its printed section without a lookup table. kind (repo | page | docs | paper | dataset | community | product) [editorial] source: Curator, signed What sort of thing this is, which decides which fields can exist at all: only a repo carries pushed_at, only a non-repo is stated by the link check alone. description (string) [transcribed] source: The project's README, docs or abstract One sentence, condensed from what the source says about itself. It is never a finding, an endorsement or a test result. language (string | null) [transcribed] source: The project, at its own URL Implementation language as the project states it, not as GitHub's linguist guesses it. repo_path (string | null) [measured] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} owner/name as it appears in the API path. Null for every entry with no repository, which is what makes the rest of the repository columns null too. pushed_at (date | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} → pushed_at The liveness field. Null where the sweep did not capture it, in which case the rubric's fallback clause reads release_published_at instead and says so in derivation. created_at (date | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} → created_at Used only as the denominator of stars_per_day. It sets no state. stars (integer | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} → stargazers_count A reading taken at one instant, not a live figure, and it sets no state. It is the least important number in the row. forks (integer | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} → forks_count Captured where the sweep recorded it. Sets no state. archived (boolean | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} → archived A maintainer's own statement, and the one measured field that outranks every date rule. archived_at (date | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} → archived_at Captured where GitHub returned it. Its absence never implies the archive flag is false — read archived for that. release_tag (string | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases/latest → tag_name The latest tagged release as the project tagged it. Null is ambiguous on its own, which is why no_releases exists. release_published_at (date | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases/latest → published_at Stands in for pushed_at under the fallback clause. Where it does, derivation names the substitution. no_releases (boolean) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo}/releases/latest → 404 True means the repository has published no tagged release at all. False with a null release_tag means the sweep did not capture one — a different thing, kept a different field. http_status (integer | null) [measured] [dated] source: HEAD, then GET on failure, against url — redirects not followed 0 means the request did not complete at all. Any status of 400 or worse is tested first and produces DEAD, because an unreachable URL cannot be rescued by another field. http_checked_at (timestamp | null) [measured] [dated] source: HEAD, then GET on failure, against url — redirects not followed The instant the link check was made. Equal to checked_at in this printing, and carried per row so a later partial re-sweep cannot lie about it. http_note (string | null) [measured] [dated] source: HEAD, then GET on failure, against url — redirects not followed What the non-200 was: the response, the redirect target, or the failure mode. Printed verbatim on the field log. http_redirect_to (string | null) [measured] [dated] source: HEAD, then GET on failure, against url — redirects not followed → Location Where a 301 pointed. This is the whole evidence for WITHDRAWN: the maintainer said where the work went, and the register did not infer it. license_spdx (string | null) [measured] [dated] source: GET https://api.github.com/repos/{owner}/{repo} → license.spdx_id Null means no licence is declared, which is a finding rather than a gap — see license_bucket. NOASSERTION means a licence file exists that SPDX could not identify. license_bucket (permissive | copyleft | custom | none | na) [derived] source: licenseBucket(), from license_spdx none is the one that matters: an entry you cannot legally reuse. na is for entries with no source to license, such as a test page. state (ACTIVE | SEMI | NRND | WITHDRAWN | ARCHIVED | DEAD) [derived] source: Rubric, second edition, thresholds in force Never stored, never asserted, never supplied by a submitter. Recompute it from the measured columns and this file must agree with the printed page. state_first_edition (string) [derived] source: Rubric, first edition (superseded) The same field data put through the superseded rules. Where it differs from state, the difference is a property of the rules and not of the world. state_moved (boolean) [derived] source: state ≠ state_first_edition True for every row printed on the errata leaf for this printing. derivation (string) [derived] source: Rubric, second edition, the clause that fired The rule that set the state, in the rubric's own words, with the values it read quoted inside it. This column is the audit trail. age_days (integer | null) [derived] source: checked_at − the liveness field Whole days between the liveness field and the field check. Measured against the printing's instant, never against the reader's clock, so a page reprints identically in a year. release_bucket (r30 | r180 | r365 | rold | rnone | runknown) [derived] source: release_published_at, bucketed The recency facet the filter rail counts against. runknown is not rnone: one means unread, the other means none exists. stars_per_day (number | null) [derived] source: stars ÷ age of created_at Two measured numbers divided. Not a rank, not a score, not a comparison against any population of tools — this register has measured none. verify_independently (boolean) [derived] source: stars_per_day > 25 The unverified flag, and the only place this register raises an eyebrow in a column. It changes no state and accuses nothing; it says check the contributor graph yourself. flags (string[]) [editorial] source: Curator, signed Conditions the reader should know before trusting the row: young-repo, vendor-operated, freemium, historical, listed-elsewhere, docs-host-substituted, no-license. supersedes (string[] (slugs)) [editorial] source: Curator, signed Declared, not inferred. Both directions are stored once and reversed at build, so the graph cannot contradict itself. superseded_by (string[] (slugs)) [editorial] source: Curator, signed Feeds one rubric clause: a quiet entry whose declared successor reads ACTIVE is marked NRND rather than left looking healthy. alternative_to (string[] (slugs)) [editorial] source: Curator, signed Symmetric. Substitutes for the same job, with no claim that either is better. annotation (string | null) [editorial] source: Curator, signed The signed verdict, printed in italic typewriter face and kept separate from every other column precisely so it can be ignored. checked_at (timestamp) [measured] [dated] source: The sweep's own clock The instant every dated field in this row was read. It is the same value on every row of this printing, and it is the only claim this file makes about how current it is. CONTRIBUTING ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Entry criteria, the submission form and the exact row format: https://awesomeantidetect.com/submit/ A submission carries measurable fields only. No submitter sets a state; the rubric does, from the fields, at the next sweep. LICENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC0-1.0.
