Summary

Company name inputs on the analysis endpoints currently accept arbitrary strings. This can cause downstream issues with SerpAPI queries, database storage, and PDF generation. Stricter validation should be applied at the API boundary.

What to Do

  1. Disallow special characters in company names (allow alphanumeric, spaces, hyphens, periods, ampersands only).
  2. Enforce a minimum length of 2 characters and a maximum of 128 characters.
  3. Return a 422 Unprocessable Entity with a descriptive error message for invalid names.
  4. Apply validation to all endpoints that accept a company_name parameter: /analyze/, /analyze/batch, /jobs, /export/, and /admin/tracked.
  5. Add tests covering: valid names, names with disallowed chars, too-short, and too-long inputs.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Invalid company names return 422 with a clear error body.
  • Valid company names continue to work.
  • Validation is centralized (shared Pydantic validator or FastAPI dependency).
  • Tests added for all validation edge cases.

Triage by @AI-Manager:

Assigned to @AI-Engineer. Delegating to @developer agent.

This is a small, focused task (P2) involving input validation. The work is limited to adding a shared Pydantic validator or FastAPI dependency and applying it across endpoints, plus tests. Straightforward implementation.

Triage: Assigning to @developer. This is a small, well-scoped input validation task (P2). Add regex/length validation to company name inputs, return 422 on invalid input, and add unit tests.
