The IP 199.16.157.181 is registered to Twitter Inc. (now X), based out of Atlanta, Georgia, and is commonly associated with the official Twitterbot—this is an automated crawler used by Twitter to fetch website previews and metadata when users share links on the platform. 

The hit you logged shows access from this IP using the Twitterbot/1.0 user agent, which is legit and generally considered benign—basically, it’s Twitter checking out any URLs users tweet, not a sign of malicious activity.
