Hi,
First of all, you could be prood of this nginx-proxy-manager project, it's a beautiful peace of software i run as docker container in my homelab since years now, it's working wonderfully!
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm tired of AI scrapper on my personal website/blog/wiki/etc. in addition to not wanting my personal writing and knowledge going to these AI tools, because they are scrapping my website every seconds or even milliseconds for some of them (even if basic prevention configuration done, like IP pool blacklisting, robots.txt, etc.) they are just too dishonest to follow these and be completely blocked.
And I'm not even talking about the fact it costs me some $ of electricity bill every month, CPU load, and heat generated...
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like an Anubis integration (or similar to) to this nginx-proxy-manager docker image, so AI scapper are blocked because don't pass the CPU intensive compute task. (or don't want to pass it)
Describe alternatives you've considered
None, these AI scrapper/agent don't follow any WWW rules, they just want your data and don't care about robot.txt, IP blacklist (they rent regularly legitimate IPs pool), user agent filtering, etc.
Additional context
Anubis will save us :)

List of similar challenge/PoW tool as Anubis:
Both https://github.com/simon987/ngx_http_js_challenge_module (Nginx module) and https://git.gammaspectra.live/git/go-away seems to be the most compatible and easy to install alongside Nginx
I will create a custom nginx-proxy-manager image if I find time this week/next week
