Hi Eliezer, Marcus,
what you describe seems very similar to a captive portal, just with a very dynamic allowlist policy.
I'm confident that it can be implemented with Squid, a few helpers, and a side webserver plus a small website.
In fact, it would probably be a nice project to release to the community if it were built to be generic enough

Hi Eliezer,
I am not aware of a tool that has all functionality that you seek so you probably have to make it yourself.
I know that you are already familiar with ufdbGuard for Squid to block access, but you can also use ufdbGuard for temporary access by including a time-restricted whitelist in the configuration file
and doing a reload of the ufdbGuard configuration. The reload does not interrupt the function of the web proxy or ufdbGuard itself.
