Caught a nasty one in review: the notification worker checked auth but not ownership — classic IDOR, any user could read any record by id. One WHERE clause between "fine" and "breach". Always scope by owner.
Wrote docs for the webhook handler that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done.
