fix(security): Add auth middleware to unprotected API endpoints

Security audit identified 8 endpoint groups that were publicly accessible
without authentication. Added authMiddleware and requireRole where appropriate.

Protected endpoints:
- /api/payloads/* - authMiddleware (trusted origins or API token)
- /api/job-queue/* - authMiddleware + requireRole('admin')
- /api/workers/* - authMiddleware
- /api/worker-registry/* - authMiddleware (pods access via trusted IPs)
- /api/k8s/* - authMiddleware + requireRole('admin')
- /api/pipeline/* - authMiddleware + requireRole('admin')
- /api/tasks/* - authMiddleware + requireRole('admin')
- /api/admin/orchestrator/* - authMiddleware + requireRole('admin')

Also:
- Added API_SECURITY.md documentation
- Filter AI settings from /settings page (managed in /ai-settings)

-## Staggered Task Workflow (Added 2025-12-12)
+## Worker Architecture (Kubernetes)
 
-### Overview
+### Persistent Workers (StatefulSet)
-When creating many tasks at once (e.g., product refresh for all AZ stores), staggered scheduling prevents resource contention, proxy assignment lag, and API rate limiting.
 
-### How It Works
+Workers run as a **StatefulSet** with 8 persistent pods. They maintain identity across restarts.
-```
-1. Task created with scheduled_for = NOW() + (index * stagger_seconds)
-2. Worker claims task only when scheduled_for <= NOW()
-3. Worker runs preflight on EVERY task claim (proxy health check)
-4. If preflight passes, worker executes task
-5. If preflight fails, task released back to pending for another worker
-6. Worker finishes task, polls for next available task
-7. Repeat - preflight runs on each new task claim
-```
 
-### Key Points
+**Pod Names**: `scraper-worker-0` through `scraper-worker-7`
-- **Preflight is per-task, not per-startup**: Each task claim triggers a new preflight check
-- **Stagger prevents thundering herd**: 15 seconds between tasks is default
-- **Task assignment is the trigger**: Worker picks up task → runs preflight → executes if passed
 
-### API Endpoints
+**Key Properties**:
-```bash
+- `updateStrategy: OnDelete` - Pods only update when manually deleted (no automatic restarts)
-# Create staggered tasks for specific dispensary IDs
+- `podManagementPolicy: Parallel` - All pods start simultaneously

+- Workers register with their pod name as identity
-{

+# API Security Documentation
+
+This document describes the authentication and authorization configuration for all CannaiQ API endpoints.
+
+## Authentication Methods
+
+### 1. Trusted Origins (No Token Required)
+
+Requests from trusted sources are automatically authenticated with `internal` role:
+
+**Trusted IPs:**
+- `127.0.0.1` (localhost IPv4)
+- `::1` (localhost IPv6)
+- `::ffff:127.0.0.1` (IPv4-mapped IPv6)
+
+**Trusted Domains:**
+- `https://cannaiq.co`
+- `https://www.cannaiq.co`
+- `https://findadispo.com`
+- `https://www.findadispo.com`
+- `https://findagram.co`
+- `https://www.findagram.co`
+- `http://localhost:3010`
+- `http://localhost:8080`
+- `http://localhost:5173`
+
+**Trusted Patterns:**
+- `*.cannabrands.app`
+- `*.cannaiq.co`
+
+**Internal Header:**
+- `X-Internal-Request` header matching `INTERNAL_REQUEST_SECRET` env var
+
+### 2. Bearer Token Authentication
+
+External requests must include a valid token:
+
+```
+Authorization: Bearer <token>
+```
+
+**Token Types:**
+- **JWT Token**: User session tokens (7-day expiry)
+- **API Token**: Long-lived tokens for integrations (stored in `api_tokens` table)
+
+## Authorization Levels
+
+### Public (No Auth)
+Routes accessible without authentication:
+- `GET /health` - Health check
+- `GET /api/health/*` - Comprehensive health endpoints
+- `GET /outbound-ip` - Server's outbound IP
+- `GET /api/v1/deals` - Public deals endpoint
+
+### Authenticated (Trusted Origin or Token)
+Routes requiring authentication but no specific role:
+
+| Route | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| `/api/payloads/*` | Raw crawl payload access |
+| `/api/workers/*` | Worker monitoring |
+| `/api/worker-registry/*` | Worker registration and heartbeats |
+| `/api/stores/*` | Store CRUD |
+| `/api/products/*` | Product listing |
+| `/api/dispensaries/*` | Dispensary data |
+
+### Admin Only (Requires `admin` or `superadmin` role)
+Routes restricted to administrators:
+
+| Route | Description |
+|-------|-------------|
+| `/api/job-queue/*` | Job queue management |
+| `/api/k8s/*` | Kubernetes control (scaling) |
+| `/api/pipeline/*` | Pipeline stage transitions |
+| `/api/tasks/*` | Task queue management |
+| `/api/admin/orchestrator/*` | Orchestrator dashboard |
+| `/api/admin/trusted-origins/*` | Manage trusted origins |
+| `/api/admin/debug/*` | Debug endpoints |
+
+**Note:** The `internal` role (localhost/trusted origins) bypasses role checks, granting automatic admin access for local development and internal services.
+
+## Endpoint Security Matrix

+
+## Implementation Details
+
+### Middleware Stack
+
+```typescript
+// Authentication middleware - validates token or trusted origin
+import { authMiddleware } from '../auth/middleware';
+
+// Role requirement middleware - checks user role
+import { requireRole } from '../auth/middleware';
+
+// Usage in route files:
+router.use(authMiddleware);                           // All routes need auth
+router.use(requireRole('admin', 'superadmin'));       // Admin-only routes
+```
+
+### Auth Middleware Flow
+
+```
+Request → Check Bearer Token
+         ├─ Valid JWT → Set user from token → Continue
+         ├─ Valid API Token → Set user as api_token role → Continue
+         └─ No Token → Check Trusted Origin
+                      ├─ Trusted → Set user as internal role → Continue
+                      └─ Not Trusted → 401 Unauthorized
+```
+
+### Role Check Flow
+
+```
+Request → authMiddleware → requireRole('admin')
+                          ├─ role === 'internal' → Continue (bypass)
+                          ├─ role in ['admin', 'superadmin'] → Continue
+                          └─ else → 403 Forbidden
+```
+
+## Worker Pod Authentication
+
+Worker pods (in Kubernetes) authenticate via:
+
+1. **Internal IP**: Pods communicate via cluster IPs, which are trusted
+2. **Internal Header**: Optional `X-Internal-Request` header for explicit trust
+
+Endpoints used by workers:
+- `POST /api/worker-registry/register` - Report for duty
+- `POST /api/worker-registry/heartbeat` - Stay alive
+- `POST /api/worker-registry/deregister` - Graceful shutdown
+- `POST /api/worker-registry/task-completed` - Report task completion
+
+## API Token Management
+
+API tokens are managed via:
+- `GET /api/api-tokens` - List tokens
+- `POST /api/api-tokens` - Create token
+- `DELETE /api/api-tokens/:id` - Revoke token
+
+Token properties:
+- `token`: The bearer token value
+- `name`: Human-readable identifier
+- `rate_limit`: Requests per minute
+- `expires_at`: Optional expiration
+- `active`: Enable/disable toggle
+- `allowed_endpoints`: Optional endpoint restrictions
+
+## Security Best Practices
+
+1. **Never expose tokens in URLs** - Use Authorization header
+2. **Use HTTPS in production** - All traffic encrypted
+3. **Rotate API tokens periodically** - Set expiration dates
+4. **Monitor rate limits** - Prevent abuse
+5. **Audit access logs** - Track API usage via `api_usage_logs` table

-## Browser Task Memory Limits (Updated 2025-12)
-
-Browser-based tasks (Puppeteer/Chrome) have strict memory constraints that limit concurrency.
-
-### Why Browser Tasks Are Different
-
-Each browser task launches a Chrome process. Unlike I/O-bound API calls, browsers consume significant RAM:
-
-| Component | RAM Usage |
-|-----------|-----------|
-| Node.js runtime | ~150 MB |
-| Chrome browser (base) | ~200-250 MB |
-| Dutchie menu page (loaded) | ~100-150 MB |
-| **Per browser total** | **~350-450 MB** |
-
-### Memory Math for Pod Limits
-
-```
-Pod memory limit:     2 GB (2000 MB)
-Node.js runtime:      -150 MB
-Safety buffer:        -100 MB
-────────────────────────────────
-Available for browsers: 1750 MB
-
-Per browser + page:    ~400 MB
-
-Max browsers: 1750 ÷ 400 = ~4 browsers
-
-Recommended: 3 browsers (leaves headroom for spikes)
-```
-
-### MAX_CONCURRENT_TASKS for Browser Tasks
-
-| Browsers per Pod | RAM Used | Risk Level |
-|------------------|----------|------------|
-| 1 | ~500 MB | Very safe |
-| 2 | ~900 MB | Safe |
-| **3** | **~1.3 GB** | **Recommended** |
-| 4 | ~1.7 GB | Tight (may OOM) |
-| 5+ | >2 GB | Will OOM crash |
-
-**CRITICAL**: `MAX_CONCURRENT_TASKS=3` is the maximum safe value for browser tasks with current pod limits.
-
-### Scaling Strategy
-
-Scale **horizontally** (more pods) rather than vertically (more concurrency per pod):
-
-```
-┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
-│ Cluster: 8 pods × 3 browsers = 24 concurrent tasks                       │
-│                                                                          │

-│  ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐ ┌─────────────┐       │
-│  │ Pod 4       │ │ Pod 5       │ │ Pod 6       │ │ Pod 7       │       │
-│  │ 3 browsers  │ │ 3 browsers  │ │ 3 browsers  │ │ 3 browsers  │       │
-│  └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘ └─────────────┘       │
-└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
-```
-
-### Browser Lifecycle Per Task
-
-Each task gets a fresh browser with fresh IP/identity:
-
-```
-1. Claim task from queue
-2. Get fresh proxy from pool
-3. Launch browser with proxy
-4. Run preflight (verify IP)
-5. Execute scrape
-6. Close browser
-7. Repeat
-```
-
-This ensures:
-- Fresh IP per task (proxy rotation)
-- Fresh fingerprint per task (UA rotation)
-- No cookie/session bleed between tasks
-- Predictable memory usage
-
-### Increasing Capacity
-
-To handle more concurrent tasks:
-
-1. **Add more pods** (up to 8 per CLAUDE.md limit)
-2. **Increase pod memory** (allows 4 browsers per pod):
-   ```yaml
-   resources:
-     limits:
-       memory: "2.5Gi"  # from 2Gi
-   ```
-
-**DO NOT** simply increase `MAX_CONCURRENT_TASKS` without also increasing pod memory limits.

- * Product Discovery HTTP Handler (Browser-based)

- * This handler:
- * 1. Loads dispensary info
- * 2. Launches headless browser with proxy (if provided)
- * 3. Establishes session by visiting embedded menu
- * 4. Fetches ALL products via GraphQL from browser context
- * 5. Saves raw payload to filesystem (gzipped)
- * 6. Records metadata in raw_crawl_payloads table
- * 7. Queues product_refresh task to process the payload
- *
- * Why browser-based:
- * - Works with session-based residential proxies (Evomi)
- * - Lower detection risk than curl/axios
- * - Real Chrome TLS fingerprint

- * Store Discovery HTTP Handler (Browser-based)
- *
- * Uses Puppeteer + StealthPlugin to discover stores via browser context.
- * Based on product-discovery-http.ts pattern.
- *
- * This handler:
- * 1. Launches headless browser with proxy (if provided)
- * 2. Establishes session by visiting Dutchie dispensaries page
- * 3. Fetches cities for each state via getAllCitiesByState GraphQL
- * 4. Fetches stores for each city via ConsumerDispensaries GraphQL
- * 5. Upserts to dutchie_discovery_locations
- * 6. Auto-promotes valid locations to dispensaries table
- *
- * Why browser-based:
- * - Works with session-based residential proxies (Evomi)
- * - Lower detection risk than curl/axios
- * - Real Chrome TLS fingerprint

-   * This prevents resource contention and proxy assignment lag when creating

-   * the previous task.
-   *
-   * Workflow:
-   * 1. Task is created with scheduled_for = NOW() + (index * staggerSeconds)
-   * 2. Worker claims task only when scheduled_for <= NOW()
-   * 3. Worker runs preflight check on EVERY task claim
-   * 4. If preflight passes, worker executes task
-   * 5. If preflight fails, task is released back to pending for another worker
-   * 6. Worker finishes task, polls for next available task
-   * 7. Repeat - preflight runs again on next task claim
-   *
-   * Benefits:
-   * - Prevents all 8 workers from hitting proxies simultaneously
-   * - Reduces API rate limiting / 403 errors
-   * - Spreads resource usage over time
-   * - Each task still runs preflight, ensuring proxy health

+# =============================================================================
+# ALTERNATIVE: StatefulSet with multiple workers per pod (not currently used)
+# =============================================================================
+# Task Worker Pods (StatefulSet)
+# Each pod runs 5 role-agnostic workers that pull tasks from worker_tasks queue.
+#
+# Architecture:
+# - Pods are named from a predefined list (Aethelgard, Xylos, etc.)
+# - Each pod spawns 5 worker processes
+# - Workers register with API and show their pod name
+# - HPA scales pods 5-15 based on pending task count
+# - Workers use DB-level locking (FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED) to prevent conflicts
+#
+# Pod Names (up to 25):
+# Aethelgard, Xylos, Kryll, Coriolis, Dimidium, Veridia, Zetani, Talos IV,
+# Onyx, Celestia, Gormand, Betha, Ragnar, Syphon, Axiom, Nadir, Terra Nova,
+# Acheron, Nexus, Vespera, Helios Prime, Oasis, Mordina, Cygnus, Umbra
