Context

Roadmap item: P1 Security hardening

api.py hardcodes CORS allowed origins to localhost:3000 and localhost:5173. This breaks the dashboard when deployed behind a real domain.

Task

  • Read allowed origins from a CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS environment variable (comma-separated list)
  • Fall back to the current localhost values in development mode only
  • Update config.py to include CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS with appropriate defaults
  • Document the variable in docker-compose.yml and any relevant README

Acceptance Criteria

  • CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS env var is read and parsed (comma-separated)
  • CORS middleware uses the configured origins at runtime
  • Localhost fallback applies only in development mode
  • Config is documented in compose file as a commented example

Verified complete: config.py reads CORS_ORIGINS env var (comma-separated), falls back to localhost origins. api.py uses config.cors_origins in CORS middleware. Documented in docker-compose.yml and .env.example. Closing as implemented.
