I appreciate the inclusion of anti-bot software. As someone who builds plugins for enterprise apps (currently Airtable), I really want to build automated tests

  Anyone with a stake in bypassing anti-bot measures isn't going to share their tactics, since sharing it will lead to such workaround being patched or mitigated, requiring them to research for more bot detection workarounds. Projects like cloudscraper[0] are often linked to point and say "look! they broke Cloudflare!" but CF and the rest of the industry has detections for tools like this, and instead of rolling out blocks for these tools, they give website owners tools like bot score[1] to manage their own risk level on a per-page basis. 0: https://github.com/VeNoMouS/cloudscraper https://github.com/VeNoMouS/cloudscraper 1: https://developers.cloudflare.com/bots/concepts/bot-score/ https://developers.cloudflare.com/bots/concepts/bot-score/

    Yeah that's a shame but it makes sense. Probably need to find an in with bot builders, if that's really a goal I have.
