Ua-tracer: what does a user agent fetch, follow and run

twapi1 pts0 comments

ua-tracer

This page just minted a fresh trace id WPxVgFcs. Every asset it references<br>lives under /r/WPxVgFcs/SfDOvRiH/…, so each fetch is tied back to this request and<br>your User-Agent. Layered probes inside the CSS and JS reveal whether your UA parses CSS, follows<br>resources linked from CSS, and actually executes JavaScript.

See what your user agent just did →

Try it: point a crawler at this URL, or run a fresh trace with curl —<br>each load is its own trace:

curl -A "QuietHarvesterBot/4.3" https://uatracer.com/<br>…then open the matching row below. A plain curl only records the homepage<br>hit (it parses no CSS and runs no JS) — that contrast is the whole point.
