Could you build this?

Partial The Netlify extension wiring and log dashboard are vibe-codeable, but reliable bot classification depends on maintained bot signatures, reverse-DNS verification, and Web Bot Auth cryptography. Those need security and threat-intel expertise and ongoing data.

What it would actually take: Build it as a Netlify edge function or extension that logs request metadata and checks claimed crawler identities via reverse and forward DNS and signed-request verification. The hard parts are a curated, continuously updated dataset of crawler IPs and signatures, and a low-latency, fail-open signed-clearance scheme. That takes security engineering and access to threat data.
