This is a little bit of a wall of text but I hope it will be a nice sample for such a setup.

The principle is pretty simple : use a little bit of compute. If you're a bot and want to visit many sites the cost will add up, if you are a human going to a website the 1 second cost for the initial page is not a big deal.

Also notice the difference with the extremely annoying cloudflare checkbox asking if you are a human that became ubiquitous lately. I'd rather wait a second.
