  • No sensitive data is logged by default
  • Consider network-level security controls

Input Validation

  • All inputs are validated using Zod schemas
  • SQL injection is not applicable (REST API client)
  • XSS protection through proper output encoding

Security Updates

Security updates will be released as patch versions and announced through:

  • GitHub Security Advisories
