Honeypot links

intermediate Matching curriculum →

What this challenge teaches

Teaches: Hidden <a> elements (display:none / visibility:hidden / off-screen). Only bots that blindly follow every link click them.

Expected output: Skip links that are visually hidden via CSS, check computed style or filter rel="nofollow" + display:none.

Submit your scraper's JSON output to /challenges/antibot/honeypot-links/grade (grader endpoint is part of a later phase; URL is reserved now).

Three real links and one honeypot link below. The honeypot is hidden via CSS, visible only to bots that crawl every a[href].
