Description

This is a feature request.

It'd be handy to have a regex which matches all URLs Noembed can handle (or all those it has a chance of handling at least). That way I wouldn't send requests to you when there's no point.

Ideally this would be hosted on noembed and could be cached by my site, to be requested again once a day or something.

Research direction

Start by reviewing how Noembed determines which URLs it can handle and how hosted responses are exposed. Define the supported URL scope and the caching behavior, then verify that the resulting regex can identify URLs before requests are sent.
