* feat(_yahoo-fetch): curl-only Decodo proxy fallback helper Yahoo Finance throttles Railway egress IPs aggressively. 4 seeders (seed-commodity-quotes, seed-etf-flows, seed-gulf-quotes, seed-market-quotes) duplicated the same fetchYahooWithRetry block with no proxy fallback. This helper consolidates them and adds the proxy fallback. Yahoo-specific: CURL-ONLY proxy strategy. Probed 2026-04-16: query1.finance.yahoo.com via CONNECT (httpsProxyFetchRaw): HTTP 404 query1.finance.yahoo.com via curl (curlFetch): HTTP 200 Yahoo's edge blocks Decodo's CONNECT egress IPs but accepts the curl egress IPs. Helper deliberately omits the CONNECT leg — adding it would burn time on guaranteed-404 attempts. Production defaults expose ONLY curlProxyResolver + curlFetcher. All learnings from PR #3118 + #3119 reviews baked in: - lastDirectError accumulator across the loop, embedded in final throw + Error.cause chain - catch block uses break (NOT throw) so thrown errors also reach proxy - DI seams (_curlProxyResolver, _proxyCurlFetcher) for hermetic tests - _PROXY_DEFAULTS exported for production-default lock tests - Sync curlFetch wrapped with await Promise.resolve() to future-proof against an async refactor (Greptile P2 from #3119) Tests (tests/yahoo-fetch.test.mjs, 11 cases): - Production defaults: curl resolver/fetcher reference equality - Production defaults: NO CONNECT leg present (regression guard) - 200 OK passthrough, never touches proxy - 429 with no proxy → throws exhausted with HTTP 429 in message - Retry-After header parsed correctly - 429 + curl proxy succeeds → returns proxy data - Thrown fetch error on final retry → proxy fallback runs (P1 guard) - 429 + proxy ALSO fails → both errors visible in message + cause chain - Proxy malformed JSON → throws exhausted - Non-retryable 500 → no extra direct retry, falls to proxy - parseRetryAfterMs unit (exported sanity check) Verification: 11/11 helper tests pass. node --check clean. Phase 1 of 2 — seeder migrations follow. * feat(yahoo-seeders): migrate 4 seeders to _yahoo-fetch helper Removes the duplicated fetchYahooWithRetry function (4 byte-identical copies across seed-commodity-quotes, seed-etf-flows, seed-gulf-quotes, seed-market-quotes) and routes all Yahoo Finance fetches through the new scripts/_yahoo-fetch.mjs helper. Each seeder gains the curl-only Decodo proxy fallback baked into the helper. Per-seeder changes (mechanical): - import { fetchYahooJson } from './_yahoo-fetch.mjs' - delete the local fetchYahooWithRetry function - replace 'const resp = await fetchYahooWithRetry(url, label); if (!resp) return X; const json = await resp.json()' with 'let json; try { json = await fetchYahooJson(url, { label }); } catch { return X; }' - prune now-unused CHROME_UA/sleep imports where applicable Latent bugs fixed in passing: - seed-etf-flows.mjs:23 and seed-market-quotes.mjs:38 referenced CHROME_UA without importing it (would throw ReferenceError at runtime if the helper were called). Now the call site is gone in etf-flows; in market-quotes CHROME_UA is properly imported because Finnhub call still uses it. seed-commodity-quotes also has fetchYahooChart1y (separate non-retry function for gold history). Migrated to use fetchYahooJson under the hood — preserves return shape, adds proxy fallback automatically. Verification: - node --check clean on all 4 modified seeders - npm run typecheck:all clean - npm run test:data: 5374/5374 pass Phase 2 of 2. * fix(_yahoo-fetch): log success AFTER parse + add _sleep DI seam for honest Retry-After test Greptile P2: "[YAHOO] proxy (curl) succeeded" was logged BEFORE JSON.parse(text). On malformed proxy JSON, Railway logs would show: [YAHOO] proxy (curl) succeeded for AAPL throw: Yahoo retries exhausted ... Contradictory + breaks the post-deploy log-grep verification this PR relies on ("look for [YAHOO] proxy (curl) succeeded"). Fix: parse first; success log only fires when parse succeeds AND the value is about to be returned. Greptile P3: 'Retry-After header parsed correctly' test used header value '0', but parseRetryAfterMs() treats non-positive seconds as null → helper falls through to default linear backoff. So the test was exercising the wrong branch despite its name. Fix: added _sleep DI opt seam to the helper. New test injects a sleep spy and asserts the captured duration: Retry-After: '7' → captured sleep == [7000] (Retry-After branch) no Retry-After → captured sleep == [10] (default backoff = retryBaseMs * 1) Two paired tests lock both branches separately so a future regression that collapses them is caught. Also added a log-ordering regression test: malformed proxy JSON must NOT emit the 'succeeded' log. Captures console.log into an array and asserts no 'proxy (curl) succeeded' line appeared before the throw. Verification: - tests/yahoo-fetch.test.mjs: 13/13 (was 11, +2) - npm run test:data: 5376/5376 (+2) - npm run typecheck:all: clean Followup commits on PR #3120.
