2026 Security and Architecture Audit
The project has been shaped by a 2026 security and architecture audit, establishing a clear baseline: defense in depth, no blocking in the request path, strict input validation, and resource caps to prevent exhaustion. This audit is the quality baseline for all design decisions.
