💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with aws-solutions-constructs.aws-wafwebacl-cloudfront 
Create a fully-functional mini-application that integrates AWS Web Application Firewall (WAF) with Amazon CloudFront using the 'aws-solutions-constructs.aws-wafwebacl-cloudfront' Python package. Your application should allow users to define and manage custom rules for their CloudFront distributions via a simple command-line interface (CLI). The CLI will enable users to add, delete, or modify WAF rules, as well as apply these rules to specific CloudFront distributions. Additionally, the application should provide monitoring capabilities to view the status of WAF rules and any recent activity logs related to these rules.

Steps to implement the application:
1. Set up a Python environment with necessary dependencies including 'aws-solutions-constructs.aws-wafwebacl-cloudfront'.
2. Design a CLI interface where users can input commands such as 'add_rule', 'delete_rule', 'modify_rule', and 'view_logs'. Each command should correspond to specific actions on WAF rules.
3. Utilize the 'aws-solutions-constructs.aws-wafwebacl-cloudfront' package to create and configure WAF web ACLs and associate them with CloudFront distributions. Ensure that each rule can be targeted at a specific distribution.
4. Implement functionality within the CLI to allow users to specify conditions for WAF rules, such as IP addresses, geographic locations, or HTTP headers.
5. Develop monitoring tools within the application to track the effectiveness of WAF rules, including any alerts for potential security threats detected by the WAF.
6. Document the setup process and all available commands in a user-friendly guide.

Suggested Features:
- Detailed logging of all WAF rule changes and activities.
- Support for multiple CloudFront distributions managed through a single CLI instance.
- Customizable alerting system based on WAF detection events.
- Integration with AWS CloudWatch for advanced monitoring and logging.
- User authentication and role-based access control for managing different levels of permissions.
