Context

From ROADMAP.md (P2 - Backend: SERP cache TTL is hardcoded to 24 hours).

The SerpAPI cache TTL is hardcoded to 24 hours. Different deployment needs (e.g. frequent re-analysis, cost reduction) require changing this without a code change.

What to do

  1. Add SERP_CACHE_TTL_HOURS to config.py (default 24).
  2. Update the caching logic in serp_api.py to use this config value.
  3. Document the variable in docker-compose.yml (commented) and DEPLOYMENT.md.

Acceptance criteria

  • Setting SERP_CACHE_TTL_HOURS=1 causes cache entries to expire after 1 hour.
  • Omitting the variable retains the current 24-hour default.
  • No magic number 24 remains in the caching code path.
