Pounce - Progress

What Works

• ✅ FastAPI backend + Next.js frontend (Terminal + public pages)
• ✅ Cookie-based auth (HttpOnly) + OAuth
• ✅ Market feed + auctions + listings + TLD intel
• ✅ Watchlist + cached health checks (bulk + per-domain cache-first)
• ✅ Separate scheduler process (avoid duplicate jobs with multiple API workers)
• ✅ Redis-backed job queue scaffolding (ARQ worker) + admin scraping enqueue
• ✅ Prometheus metrics endpoint (/metrics)
• ✅ Load test scaffolding (loadtest/k6)

What's Left

• ⏳ SMTP configuration + deliverability verification
• ⏳ Production observability rollout (dashboards/alerts around /metrics)
• ⏳ Optional: migrate periodic background jobs from APScheduler → queue/worker for scaling

Current Issues

• None known - awaiting first test run

Performance Notes

• WHOIS queries are inherently slow (external I/O): expect ~1–3s/domain
• DB hotspots were reduced (market feed bounded queries, N+1 removed in price tracking/admin)
• Use /metrics + loadtest/k6 to track p95 after deployments
