Summary

The SerpAPI cache TTL is hardcoded to 24 hours in config.py. Operators cannot adjust cache lifetime without modifying code.

What to do

  • Add SERP_CACHE_TTL_HOURS to config.py with a default of 24.
  • Update any code that sets the TTL to read from this config value.
  • Document the variable in .env.example.

Acceptance criteria

  • Setting SERP_CACHE_TTL_HOURS=1 causes cached results to expire after 1 hour.
  • Omitting the variable preserves the 24-hour default.
  • No hardcoded TTL integer remains in the codebase.
