Global rate limiter to absorb bursts and abuse.

Type
boolean
Default
true (prod) · false (dev)

Enables the proxy's rate limiter. It defaults on in production builds and off in development builds, so local testing isn't throttled while production gets baseline abuse protection out of the box.

🛡️Keep it on in production
The limiter is a cheap first line against scrapers and brute-force bursts. Disable it only behind another rate-limiting layer.
