Description
Currently, our system automatically discards spam requests based on various criteria, without informing users about the volume or reason for these discarded requests. This lack of transparency can be a missed opportunity for insights into spam trends and the effectiveness of our spam filters.
Feature Description:
I propose we develop a feature for the Spam plugin that tracks and displays the number of requests discarded due to spam checks. This feature would include:
- A counter for total discarded requests.
- Breakdowns of discarded requests by each spam criterion/check.
- A UI component in the dashboard/admin panel to display these metrics in an easily digestible format.

Research direction
Start by reading the Spam plugin's existing spam-check flow and the dashboard/admin panel entry point. Define how discarded requests and individual spam criteria are tracked, then determine how the UI should present the totals and breakdowns; done means the metrics are recorded accurately and displayed clearly.
