Signed Agents: Cryptographic Identification of Agent Traffic

🔐 Cloudflare introduces signed agents, a new classification that cryptographically verifies agent-originated traffic using Web Bot Auth HTTP message signatures. Signed agents represent end-user-directed automation rather than operator-owned crawlers, enabling sites to allow or block them with finer granularity. The update adds signed agents to the public Radar directory and to the bots and agents dashboard for visibility and submissions.
