Ugh every time I think I'm at a stable leaving point and it DOESN'T QUITE WORK.
Have the mosltylucid.botdetection nuget done at least (over 10k downloads and frankly before today It SUCKED).

Man I fucking LOVE building stuff. My free / OSS bot & scraper protection system is now live
stylobot.net . It's umm...VERY different from almost anything else. Oh and ridiculously more powerful than almost anything else too by taking a behavioural approach rather than simple string matching. It builds a comprehensive ledger of each user (no PII stored!) and their behaviour across sessions, requests, and even within a single request-response operation.
Uses heuristics & deterministic analysis (with optional LLM escalation for novel detections).
Free, ASP.NET Middleware, Docker Image & executable. Public Domain (commercial addons coming later)

Sneak peak my new Bot (scraper, search, maliciouus, novel) detection system. mostlylucid.net/blog/botdetect
Simple middleware for multi level best of class bot detection.
Or use the Yarp gateway docker container for a lightweight simple to use behavioural routing system (HAPPILY works on a pi in a docker cluster)
hub.docker.com/repository/dock

FULLY adjustable town to weights and confidence, 9 separate detectors from Sinple UA through a learnign Heuristic systema nd LLM learning modes.
