Each alert is posted as a message to the Slack incoming webhook
SWWAF_ALERT_SLACK_WEBHOOK_URL names, and published to the ntfy topic
SWWAF_ALERT_NTFY_URL names, with SWWAF_ALERT_NTFY_TOKEN as a bearer
token and a priority and tag by event. The cooldown and the hourly
limit stay shared; past them, each destination has its own bounded
queue and backoff, and its own sent, failed and dropped counts.
alerts.json keeps the alerts waiting by destination.
Judgement call: messages also give the detail's file, source, error and mode.
Judgement call: alerts_suppressed_total is the same for every destination.
Judgement call: an alerts.json with waiting as a list stops the start.
Model: opus-5-5
SWWAF_ALERT_WEBHOOK_URL gets one JSON POST per alert, in SPEC.md's
schema, with SWWAF_ALERT_WEBHOOK_HEADERS: ban and permanent_ban, with
the ban's notes, in observe mode too, marked mode observe and worked
out only when the alert would be sent; source_failure for GeoJS;
file_error for a rule or state file with an error. SWWAF_ALERT_EVENTS
chooses; SWWAF_ALERT_COOLDOWN holds back repeats by netblock, file or
source; past SWWAF_ALERT_MAX_PER_HOUR the hour ends in one summary. A
bounded queue, retried with backoff, holds up no request; a 4xx other
than 408 and 429 gives the alert up. alerts.json keeps the queue, the
cooldowns and the hour. Nothing shows the URL's path or query.
Judgement call: the summary's event is summary, which SPEC.md omits.
Judgement call: an admin's ban raises no alert.
