You can now use Custom Rules to bypass Super Bot Fight Mode (Pro or higher): Super Bot Fight Mode is now configurable!
You can easily use a Custom Rule to skip Super Bot Fight Mode on a specific URI Path.
If you are using Bot Fight Mode (Free), then you still cannot bypass it with anything currently. That blog post above says it is planned to eventually let free Bot Fight Mode users bypass it with Custom Rules as well, but did not mention an ETA or specific time frame for that.
