check / check (push) Waiting to run
smallwebwaf watches SWWAF_STATE_DIR with fsnotify and takes in a saved
edit of a state file in place of what it held. It knows its own writes
by the SHA-256 of what it last read or wrote; each write first takes in
an edit made since. An edit that does not parse is renamed to
<name>.bad at the next write. Each edit taken in or set aside is logged
and counted. Every ban on a netblock is checked, and the next ban is
worked out from the one that ended last. README.md says how to add and
lift a ban.

Judgement call: a broken edit is set aside at the next write, since an
editor's file can be read half written.

Model: opus-5-5
