It could be a route rule or an external nitro module. (community contribution is welcome! an example template for module: here)

The main thing to note is that any rate limiter implemented to run within the event loop shares some limitations:

It can NOT be trusted as a security measurement against DOS attacks.
It can barely handle multi instance / cluster deployments

So in general, I would highly advice to depend on a Reverse Proxy (like nginx) or CDN (like cloudflare) to handle rate limiting.
