Summary

closes #1119
closes #1120
closes #1121
closes #1122

This PR implements four critical backend improvements addressing issues #1119-#1122:

All changes follow existing patterns for error handling and code conventions.

Changes

1. IP-Based Rate Limiting (rateLimiter.ts)

  • Added extractClientIP() function respecting X-Forwarded-For and X-Real-IP headers
  • Configurable trusted proxy list via TRUSTED_PROXY_IPS environment variable
  • Per-IP rate limiting for unauthenticated traffic

2. Scoped API Keys (api-key.guard.ts)

  • Extended to support scopes per API key
  • @RequireScopes() decorator for route-level scope enforcement
  • 403 response when key lacks required scope
  • Backward-compatible with legacy API_KEYS environment variable

3. Job Queue Monitoring (jobQueue.ts)

  • Prometheus metrics: queue depth, in-flight jobs, failed jobs
  • Histogram for processing latency by job type
  • Counter for total enqueued jobs
  • Tracks job start time for accurate duration measurement

4. Stream Settlement Reconciliation (streamReconciliation.ts)

  • Compares projected stream balances to on-chain state
  • Records divergences with severity levels
  • Configurable reconciliation interval
  • Integrated into background job queue

Test Plan

  • Verify rate limiting respects proxy headers when TRUSTED_PROXY_IPS is set
  • Confirm API key scope enforcement returns 403 when scope missing
  • Check Prometheus metrics endpoint exports queue metrics
  • Test stream reconciliation runs on schedule and logs divergences

… monitoring, and stream reconciliation

Implements four comprehensive backend improvements:

1. IP-based rate limiting (nova-launch01#1119)
   - Extract real client IP respecting proxy configuration (X-Forwarded-For, X-Real-IP)
   - Apply per-IP rate limits for unauthenticated routes
   - Configurable trusted proxy list via TRUSTED_PROXY_IPS

2. Scoped API key authorization (nova-launch01#1120)
   - Extend api-key.guard to support scopes on keys
   - Require specific scopes per route via @RequireScopes decorator
   - Reject keys lacking required scope with 403

3. Job queue monitoring (nova-launch01#1121)
   - Expose queue depth, in-flight jobs, and failed job metrics
   - Track processing latency per job type
   - Register metrics with Prometheus for alerting

4. Stream settlement reconciliation (nova-launch01#1122)
   - Add reconciliation routine comparing projected to on-chain balances
   - Surface divergences for manual review
   - Configurable reconciliation interval (STREAM_RECONCILIATION_INTERVAL_MS)
   - Integrated with background job queue

All implementations follow existing error handling and testing conventions.
