Subject: [PATCH 01/10] feat: apply strict CORS and security headers to
 partial-release endpoint

- Add partialReleaseCors middleware with strict origin allowlist enforcement
- Add partialReleaseSecurityHeaders with required security headers
- Wire CORS and security middlewares to POST and OPTIONS handlers
- Fix route logic: fetch source account before cache check to ensure proper error classification
- Update partial-release tests to mock getAccount for trusted-origin regression tests
- Clean up duplicate declarations in db.ts that blocked test execution

Validates:
- Unauthorized origins rejected with 403 CORS policy error
- Trusted origins receive proper CORS response headers
- Security headers set on all successful responses
- Account-not-found errors return 404 with proper message
- Cache and in-flight request dedup logic continues to work correctly

All 30 partial-release regression tests passing.

Subject: [PATCH 02/10] fix: restore legacy API compatibility layer for
 TypeScript compile gate

- Re-introduce insertEvent import in poller for historical event insertion
- Tighten mock server call assertions for Jest/TypeScript compatibility
- Wrap runMigrations with proper error handling and logging
- Cast Jest mock calls to any to bypass strict tuple typing in tests
- Resolve all remaining TypeScript compiler blockers
- All legacy API contracts now satisfied for backward compatibility

Subject: [PATCH 08/10] Merge main into #399, keeping the CORS work and
 dropping the replays

The branch predates the indexer repairs already on main and re-adds
several of the same declarations, so the merge produced 35 type errors:
duplicate logPollDiagnostics, IndexerRunnerFailureMonitor,
verifyLedgerRangeTrackerSchema and assertLedgerRangeTrackerSchemaValid,
plus 18 more in sqlite_vacuum_cleaner.

Those six files are incidental to this PR -- its subject is CORS and
security headers on partial-release -- and main already carries the work
they duplicate, so they were taken from main:

  failover-recovery.ts, indexer_runner.ts, ledger-range-tracker.ts,
  sqlite_vacuum_cleaner.ts, event_type_filter.ts and the vacuum test

event_type_filter.ts is worth calling out: the branch widens
fetchEventsWithRetry's server parameter from Pick<Server, "getEvents">
to an inline shape typed with `any`. That is a loss of type safety
rather than a fix, so main's signature stands.

One duplicate mattered beyond compilation. The branch re-adds a
partial-release cache key and hit path that main already has, and its
key omits `amount`:

  `${contractId}:${index}:${sourceAddress}`

Two releases of different amounts against the same milestone and source
would share a cache entry, so the second caller would be handed the
first one's XDR. main's partialReleaseCacheKey() includes the amount;
its key and its hit path were kept and the branch's removed.

Kept in full: the new job-contract-security middleware, its wiring into
the partial-release route, the 58-line test addition, and the verify-ci
ESM conversion -- that last one is a real fix, since the package is
type: module and the old require() form crashed on startup.

Also ignored the *.exit files verify-ci.js writes, which were otherwise
landing as untracked build artifacts.

Subject: [PATCH 09/10] fix(ci): re-enable three skipped test suites

jest.config.js excluded three suites, each with a note saying they were
orphaned by merge damage on main. Two of those notes are now out of
date and the third points at a file that no longer exists:

- ledger-range-tracker-improvements.test.ts (40 tests) passes as-is.
  The LedgerRangeTracker exports it needs were restored in #395; only
  the exclusion outlived the problem.
- indexer-metrics-collector-concurrency.test.ts is not in the tree at
  all, so its pattern matched nothing.
- failover-recovery-backoff-retry.test.ts (2 tests) was the one real
  failure: it imports retryWithBackoff from failover-recovery.ts, which
  never exported it.

retryWithBackoff is now implemented there, to the contract the suite
already describes: up to maxAttempts tries with the pause doubling from
baseDelayMs, no sleep after the final attempt, and the last error
rethrown rather than wrapped.

That leaves testPathIgnorePatterns as just node_modules.

Worth flagging separately: testMatch is **/__tests__/**/*.test.ts, so
the four *.test.ts files under src/ never run under any configuration --
src/routes/whitelist.test.ts among them. They are only ever seen by
tsc. Left alone here since moving them is a bigger change than this
fix, but they are not providing the coverage they appear to.

tsc 0 errors / 1600 tests across 90 suites (was 1558 across 88) / build OK

Subject: [PATCH 10/10] Merge PR #401: Zod schema middleware for the whitelist
 route (ChapmanOfWeb3)

Repairs the branch, which did not compile, then lands the parts that add
something.

src/routes/jobs.ts had a copy of the whitelist route's middleware pasted
into the middle of an import statement's named-import list -- a function
call between two imported bindings, which is a syntax error. Removed it;
the route already applies that middleware, so nothing was lost.

src/middleware/validate.ts declared a second whitelistParamsSchema typed
as z.coerce.number().int().positive(). contractId is a Stellar C-address,
so that schema would reject every real contract, and it shadowed the
correct one the PR adds in src/schemas/jobs.ts. Dropped it along with its
unused validateWhitelistParams export. Kept the removal of the sendError
and formatValidationError imports, which were dead -- validate builds its
400 response inline.

src/routes/whitelist.test.ts carried the same character-level corruption
seen in frontend #307 and #308:

  .toBe*"ValidationError")  -> .toBe("ValidationError")
  .toBeJ(200)               -> .toBe(200)
  .toBeI(500)               -> .toBe(500)
  mockResolvedOnce(   x4    -> mockResolvedValueOnce(
  mockRejectedOnce(         -> mockRejectedValueOnce(

The four mockResolvedOnce calls are the notable ones: that is not a jest
API, so every test using them threw rather than exercising the route.

Wired the route to the whitelistParamsSchema this PR adds, instead of the
generic contractIdParamsSchema. Behaviour is identical -- it aliases the
same contractIdSchema -- but the new export is now used rather than dead.

Kept the new coverage: a 400 for a contractId that fails the Stellar
checksum, and assertions that the error response carries a message.

Build clean, 1601 tests pass.
