Code Quality: Ensure CORS headers in all error responses for jAI search API #218

Description

@babblebey

Problem

Some error responses from the jAI search API endpoint (src/pages/api/jai/search.js) may not include the required CORS headers, which can cause issues for frontend clients making cross-origin requests.

Current Behavior

  • CORS headers are included in most responses, but may be missing in some error scenarios (e.g., thrown errors, timeouts).

Expected Behavior

  • All error responses, regardless of the error type, should include the correct CORS headers.

Location

File: src/pages/api/jai/search.js

Proposed Implementation

  • Audit all error handling code paths.
  • Ensure every error response includes the CORS headers defined at the top of the handler.

Example:

return Response.json(
  { error: 'Some error message' },
  { status: 400, headers: corsHeaders }
);

Steps to Complete

  1. Review all error handling code.
  2. Add CORS headers to any missing error responses.
  3. Test with various error scenarios to confirm headers are present.

Definition of Done

  • All error responses include CORS headers.
  • No CORS errors occur in frontend clients due to missing headers.
  • Existing functionality remains intact.
