"""In-process sliding-window rate limiter.

IMPORTANT — deployment note:
  Rate limit counters are stored in memory and are lost on process restart.
  When deployed behind a reverse proxy (nginx, Caddy, Traefik) you MUST set
  TRUST_PROXY_HEADERS=true so that the real client IP is used as the bucket key
  rather than the proxy's IP (which would cause all users to share one bucket).
