+## Security hardening (SP19)
+
+Three pure-ASGI middlewares sit in front of every FastAPI request.
+They're sized for Cyclone's local-only posture — a misconfigured
+Tailscale / ngrok bind, a buggy cron job uploading a 4 GB file, or a
+port-scraper — not for hostile internet exposure.
+
+| Middleware | Default | Override | Reject |
+|------------|---------|----------|--------|
+| `BodySizeLimitMiddleware` | 50 MB | `CYCLONE_MAX_BODY_BYTES` | `413 body_too_large` over Content-Length cap; chunked reads capped too |
+| `RateLimitMiddleware` | 300 req/min/IP | `CYCLONE_RATE_LIMIT_PER_MIN` | `429 rate_limited` over the sliding window; `/api/health` exempt |
+| `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` | always on | n/a | stamps `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`, `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, `Referrer-Policy: same-origin`, `Permissions-Policy`, `Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'none'; frame-ancestors 'none'` |
+
+Every rejection (413 / 429) also writes a tamper-evident
+`api.request_rejected` event into the SP11 audit chain so an
+operator can correlate a misbehaving client with the SP18 JSON logs:
+
+```json
+{"event_type":"api.request_rejected","entity_id":"POST /api/parse-837","payload":{"status":413,"reason":"body_too_large","path":"/api/parse-837","method":"POST","ip":"127.0.0.1"}}
+```
+
+### Health probe
+
+`GET /api/health` now returns a subsystem snapshot:
+
+```json
+{
+  "status": "ok",
+  "version": "0.1.0",
+  "db":      {"ok": true},
+  "scheduler": {"running": true, "interval_s": 60, "sftp_block": "co_medicaid",
+                "backup_scheduler_running": false, "backup_interval_hours": 24.0},
+  "pubsub":  {"parse_completed": 1, "batch_added": 1},
+  "batch":   {"last_batch_id": 42, "last_batch_kind": "837P",
+              "last_batch_at": "2026-06-21T15:30:00.123Z",
+              "last_batch_filename": "TP11525703-837P-..."}
+}
+```
+
+Returns `"status": "degraded"` if any subsystem reports an error —
+the per-subsystem dict still surfaces so an operator can see which
+one is unhappy. `/api/health` is rate-limit exempt so a load balancer
+hammering the endpoint doesn't trip the limiter.

+"""SP19 — Security middleware + health probe.
+
+Three concrete middlewares (body size, rate limit, security headers)
+plus a richer ``/api/health`` snapshot. Sizing is for Cyclone's
+local-only posture: a misconfigured Tailscale / ngrok bind, a
+misbehaving cron job, a port-scanner scraping the API. Anything more
+aggressive (auth, mTLS, WAF) is out of scope.
+
+Design choices
+--------------
+
+* **In-memory rate limiter.** Cyclone is single-process; a dict
+  keyed by IP is enough. If we ever go multi-worker, swap for
+  Redis. The rate-limit counter resets after the bucket window;
+  failing open on the limiter itself (an unexpected exception)
+  rather than 503ing every request is the right call for a local tool.
+
+* **Body-size check by Content-Length first, then chunked-read
+  guard.** A chunked POST can lie about its size (or omit the
+  header entirely); we cap read body size on the underlying stream
+  so a malicious client can't keep streaming forever.
+
+* **Security headers on every response.** CSP locks the API to
+  same-origin + the Vite dev origin (whitelisted explicitly so a
+  future operator running on a different port doesn't break).
+
+* **Health snapshot is best-effort.** Each subsystem (DB,
+  scheduler, pubsub) reports independently — a DB outage doesn't
+  blank out the rest. ``status: "degraded"`` if any subsystem is
+  unhappy; ``"ok"`` only when everything is.

+# SP19 — Security Hardening + Health Probe
+
+**Date:** 2026-06-21
+**Branch:** `sp19-security-hardening`
+**Status:** Shipped
+**Scope:** Backend only. No frontend changes.
+
+---
+
+## 1. Why this exists
+
+Cyclone's completeness review (`docs/reviews/2026-06-20-cyclone-completeness-review.md`
+§3.1.4, §3.1.25, §3.2.24) flags three concrete gaps in the local-only /
+single-operator threat model:
+
+* **3.1.4 — No request size limits / no rate limits.** FastAPI defaults
+  accept any body size and any request rate. A 4 GB file upload OOMs
+  the parser; a flood of requests holds the GIL. Even for a
+  `127.0.0.1`-only tool, the operator's machine might be exposed via
+  Tailscale, ngrok, or a misconfigured firewall.
+* **3.1.25 — No CSP / security headers.** CORS is set; the rest of
+  FastAPI's defaults are in play. `X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff`,
+  `X-Frame-Options: DENY`, a `Content-Security-Policy` that locks the
+  Vite origin, and `Referrer-Policy: same-origin` should be on by
+  default.
+* **3.2.24 — `/api/health` is shallow.** It returns only the package
+  version. A real liveness probe should report DB connectivity, last
+  batch timestamp, pubsub subscriber count, and whether the MFT
+  scheduler is running.
+
+SP19 closes all three.
+
+## 2. Operator surface
+
+| Env var | Default | Meaning |
+|---------|---------|---------|
+| `CYCLONE_MAX_BODY_BYTES` | `52428800` (50 MB) | Reject any request whose `Content-Length` exceeds this. |
+| `CYCLONE_RATE_LIMIT_PER_MIN` | `300` | Per-IP requests/minute (sliding window). |
+| `CYCLONE_HEALTH_INCLUDE_DETAILS` | `true` | Include DB / scheduler / pubsub details in `/api/health`. |
+
+CLI: no new flags. The values come from env vars only.
+
+## 3. Files
+
+* `cyclone/security.py` — new module (~150 LOC).
+  * `BodySizeLimitMiddleware` — rejects oversized requests before
+    they're parsed.
+  * `RateLimitMiddleware` — token-bucket per IP, in-memory.
+  * `SecurityHeadersMiddleware` — adds the static response headers.
+  * `get_health_snapshot()` — gathers DB / scheduler / pubsub info.
+* `cyclone.api` lifespan attaches the three middlewares in the
+  FastAPI `add_middleware` chain. `api_routers/health.py` is
+  rewritten to use `get_health_snapshot()`.
+* Audit log: every rejection (size / rate / method) writes a
+  `api.request_rejected` event so an operator can correlate with the
+  SP11 hash chain.
+
+## 4. Threat model
+
+The SP19 hardening is sized for Cyclone's actual exposure:
+
+* **In scope:** a misconfigured Tailscale / ngrok / accidental LAN
+  bind, a buggy cron job that POSTs a 4 GB file, a port-scanner that
+  scrapes the API.
+* **Out of scope:** an attacker with shell on the operator's
+  machine, a compromised dependency (handled separately by uv
+  pinning), a network MitM (handled by SP12 SQLCipher + TLS at the
+  reverse proxy layer).
+
+## 5. Tests
+
+* `test_security.py` — 12 tests
+  (body size accept/reject, rate limit allow/deny/recover, headers
+  present, health snapshot shape, audit-log fired on reject).
+* `test_api_health.py` — 4 tests (200 ok, DB-down reports unhealthy,
+  scheduler-running reported, pubsub subscriber count surfaced).
+
+Total: 16 new tests.
