Context

Roadmap item: P1 - Error handling and resilience

/auth/login and /auth/register are currently unprotected against brute-force attacks and credential stuffing. This is a security gap for any internet-facing deployment.

What to do

  1. Add a rate limiting library (e.g., slowapi for FastAPI) as a dependency.
  2. Apply rate limit decorators to /auth/login (e.g., 10 requests/minute per IP) and /auth/register (e.g., 5 requests/minute per IP).
  3. Return 429 Too Many Requests with a Retry-After header when the limit is exceeded.
  4. Make the rate limit thresholds configurable via environment variables.

Acceptance criteria

  • Sending more than the allowed requests/minute to /auth/login returns 429.
  • The limit values are read from environment variables with sensible defaults.
  • Existing auth tests are updated to account for the middleware.
