Show HN: NextGen WAF – Native Prolog Server and Rule System

Score: 3.5/10 (Innovation: 4, Technical: 4, Documentation: 3, Utility: 3)

Aethel-Core is a Prolog-based Web Application Firewall that uses n-gram tokenization, multi-layer obfuscation decoding, and sliding-window DDoS detection to filter Layer-7 traffic, while exporting matched telemetry as Chat-ML datasets for LLM instruction tuning. The concept of a logic-programming WAF feeding neuro-symbolic training data is a mildly interesting combination, but the project is heavy on unverifiable marketing metrics and light on runnable deployment artifacts.

Target audience: security engineers and researchers interested in logic-based filtering or neuro-symbolic AI training data
