What is MistralAI-User?

MistralAI-User is Mistral AI's assistant acting for a person. It fetches a page because someone asked an AI assistant a question right now. Each visit is a person waiting for an answer that may mention you.

The operator's description: Fetches pages when Le Chat users ask questions.

How do I block or allow MistralAI-User?

With robots.txt, using the token MistralAI-User. Mistral AI does not say whether it follows robots.txt. To block the whole site:

User-agent: MistralAI-User
Disallow: /

To allow it, use Allow instead of Disallow. Before blocking, weigh what it brings: every visit is a person asking an assistant for something; blocking takes you out of those answers.

How do I see whether MistralAI-User visits my site?

In your server or CDN access logs, look for MistralAI-User in the user agent. Google Analytics does not show these visits: agents do not run its JavaScript.

Anyone can copy the name in a user agent, so counting log lines is not enough. Knocklog reads your site's traffic on any host, confirms who is who, and shows how often MistralAI-User came, which pages it read and what that brought you.

How do I know it is really MistralAI-User?

Mistral AI does not publish a way to verify MistralAI-User. Any program can use that name, so Knocklog shows these visits as “unverified”, never as genuine.
