Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I’m a high schooler currently TAing for a CS teacher at my school. I recently created a cheating detector tool for that teacher, and I was thinking that I could possibly help other teachers by integrating something like this into Runestone. Although what I’ve created so far is based on Java and is pretty independent of Runestone, I would be excited to help contribute to a feature like this that is more integrated into Runestone!
Here’s what I’ve done so far - it’s pretty unpolished and could probably use some work:
https://github.com/williamli0707/web-panda
It’s mainly a web server based on Java which scrapes assignment data from Runestone and compares timestamps and edit distance between submissions.
Describe the solution you'd like
I think that it would be beneficial to have an integrated cheating detector in Runestone, and would be happy to contribute to one.
Describe alternatives you've considered
My teacher currently manually compares timestamps between submissions to find suspicious work, and sometimes runs the code through MOSS. However, this is pretty inconvenient.

Research direction
The issue points to the external web-panda project, a Java web server that scrapes assignment data and compares timestamps and edit distance. Start by reviewing that project and identifying Runestone's relevant integration points; done would require an agreed scope for an integrated cheating detector, which the issue does not yet define.
