Space "Bitguy07/browser-automation-studio" incorrectly flagged as abusive — request review

Subject: Space “Bitguy07/browser-automation-studio” incorrectly flagged as abusive — request review

Hello Hugging Face Team,

My Space Bitguy07/browser-automation-studio is being automatically flagged as abusive and paused immediately after every successful build. The runtime API returns:

json

{

“stage”: “PAUSED”,

“errorMessage”: “Flagged as abusive”

}

What the project is

This is a personal learning/research project — a self-hosted AI browser automation platform. It lets me control a Chrome browser using natural language through a web UI or Telegram, powered by a local vision-language model (Qwen2.5-VL via Ollama).

It’s a single-user tool for my own use, not a service, not a proxy, and not a bot farm.

Why I believe it was flagged

I understand my tech stack contains components that may trigger automated abuse detection:

• Google Chrome + Xvfb — needed to run a real browser for AI-driven web automation (the core purpose of the project)
• x11vnc + noVNC + websockify — used to provide a live view of what the browser is doing, so I can watch the AI navigate pages in real-time
• Ollama — runs a local Qwen2.5-VL-7B model inside the container for vision-language inference
• Supervisord — orchestrates these processes with staggered startup to stay within free-tier memory limits

I am not :

• Running a crypto miner
• Reselling compute or remote desktop access
• Operating a scraping farm or bot network
• Tunneling traffic or proxying connections
• Violating any Hugging Face terms of service

What I’ve tried

• Verified the Docker build completes successfully (all layers cached)
• Confirmed the HEALTHCHECK returns 200 OK on GET /health
• Confirmed the root endpoint (GET /) returns 200 OK
• The Space transitions from BUILDING → APP_STARTING → PAUSED in approximately 3 seconds, with zero container logs — indicating the container is killed before any process can start
• Installed diagnostic tooling (hf-flight-recorder-agent) which confirmed no metrics are collected before the pause

Request

Could you please review and unflag my Space? I’m happy to:

• Make the Space public if that helps with review
• Add any required disclaimers or documentation
• Modify the configuration if specific components are problematic
• Discuss the project’s purpose in more detail

Thank you for your time. I understand the need for abuse prevention and appreciate the free hosting — I just want to get my legitimate project running.

Best regards, Bitguy07
