Summarize pasted redirect response headers

Paste response headers you already collected with curl -I -L or verbose curl output. This browser-local reader lists each captured HTTP status line and its Location header, if present. It does not contact a server, validate a destination, or prove that the pasted blocks belong to one complete redirect chain.

Paste raw header output. Lines beginning with < from curl verbose mode are accepted. Other lines, including request URLs and response bodies, are ignored.

Summarize captured headers Copy summary

Paste one or more response header blocks, then summarize them.

What the reader reports

• Each captured status line, in the order it appears, and its numeric status code.
• The first Location header captured in that response block, including its original text.
• A review flag when a captured 3xx response block has no Location header in the pasted text.

Repeated status blocks are listed separately. This is useful when the pasted output contains an interim response, proxy response, or more than one request. The summary does not decide which block is the final destination, whether blocks connect to each other, or whether a redirect is appropriate. Compare the output with the command and server you actually checked.

Example input

HTTP/2 301
location: https://www.example.com/new-path

HTTP/2 200
content-type: text/html

For this illustrative text, the reader reports two captured response blocks and the Location text on the first. The example is not a live result or a claim about any website.

Collecting and interpreting response headers

curl's -I option requests headers, and -L follows redirects. Its manual documents the command options and response behavior. HTTP status and redirect semantics depend on the responses actually returned by the server. This worksheet summarizes text you collected; it cannot establish that a live URL currently behaves the same way.

• curl manual — command-line options, including header-only requests and redirect following.
• RFC 9110: HTTP Semantics — status codes, redirection, and the Location field.
• Google Search Central: site moves with URL changes — mapping URLs and testing redirects during a move.
• Redirect-map coverage checker — compare a pasted old-URL inventory with redirect-map source rows.

Nothing you paste is uploaded or saved by this page. The report describes only recognized lines in the current text field; it does not fetch URLs or provide a server-side redirect audit.
