 15. Never expose routes that spawn child processes (`/api/mcp/`, `/api/cli-tools/runtime/`) without `isLocalOnlyPath()` classification in `src/server/authz/routeGuard.ts`. Loopback enforcement happens unconditionally before any auth check — leaked JWT via tunnel cannot trigger process spawning. See `docs/security/ROUTE_GUARD_TIERS.md`.
 16. Never include `Co-Authored-By` trailers that credit an AI assistant, LLM, or automation account (e.g. names containing "Claude", "GPT", "Copilot", "Bot"; emails at `anthropic.com` / `openai.com` / bot-owned `noreply.github.com` addresses). Such trailers route attribution to the bot account on GitHub, hiding the real author (`diegosouzapw`) in PR history. Human collaborators — including upstream PR authors and issue reporters being ported into OmniRoute — MAY and SHOULD be credited with standard `Co-authored-by: Name <email>` trailers; the upstream-port workflows (`/port-upstream-features`, `/port-upstream-issues`) depend on this.
 17. Never expose routes under `/api/services/` or `/dashboard/providers/services/*/embed/` without `isLocalOnlyPath()` classification in `src/server/authz/routeGuard.ts`. These routes can spawn child processes (`npm install`, `node`). Loopback enforcement happens unconditionally before any auth check — a leaked JWT via tunnel cannot trigger process spawning.

+## PII & Stream Sanitization Learnings
+
+### 1. Regex Security (ReDoS)
+All regex patterns matching variable-length strings (e.g. IPv6 address, credit cards) must use strictly bounded, non-overlapping sequences (e.g., limit occurrences with bounded ranges `{1,7}`) to prevent catastrophic backtracking when processing untrusted inputs.
+
+### 2. SSE Snapshot Handling
+When parsing streaming LLM responses (e.g. Responses API), check if a chunk represents a final snapshot (`done` or `completed` events). Snapshot text must be sanitized directly as a standalone string (bypassing rolling delta buffers) to prevent text duplication at the end of the stream.
+
+### 3. Database Handles in Tests
+Ensure that any unit tests that trigger database migrations or establish SQLite connections call `resetDbInstance()` and properly clean up/close all DB handles in a `test.after(...)` hook. Failure to release database connection handles will cause Node's native test runner to hang indefinitely.
