Thanks for the review — I've addressed the Copilot review comments:

  • Removed module-level cleanup interval from and implemented lazy cleanup + per-identifier serialization to avoid race conditions (added concurrency unit test).
  • Standardized rate-limit keys (, , etc.) and added response headers on endpoints.
  • Hardened to only trust proxy headers when (added corresponding tests) and documented behavior.
  • Added try/catch and recovery for corrupted in resume/job pages and fixed syntax issues flagged in page.
  • Fixed test setup: added , module name mapping for imports, and mocks for to avoid external DB requirements in tests.

I ran the test suite locally: all tests pass (). Please re-run CI when convenient; the branch is updated with the fixes and tests: .

If there are any additional comments from the automated reviewer or maintainers, let me know and I'll address them promptly.
