Summary
Adds authentication, per-user rate limiting, and short response caching to /api/ai/roast so unauthenticated users cannot abuse Gemini credits.
Closes #3160
Type of Change
What Changed
Added src/app/api/ai/roast/route.ts implementing:
- server session check (401 if unauthenticated)
- per-user rate limiting (Upstash fixed-window 5 requests / 1 hour with in-memory fallback)
- short response caching (5 minute TTL; Upstash Redis if configured, otherwise memory)
(Optional) package.json dependency additions if Upstash is desired:
- "@upstash/redis"
- "@upstash/ratelimit"
How to Test
-Expected result: 401 Unauthorized
-Expected result: 200 with generated result
-Expected result: 429 Too many requests with retryAfter
-Expected result: second response returns cached result (response includes cached: true)
