        Industry-standard scrape target: customers'' Prometheus,

        Grafana Agent, Datadog OpenMetrics integration, or any

        OpenMetrics-compatible scraper polls this endpoint every

        15-60 seconds. The metrics include:


        - parlayapi_requests_total{status_class="2xx|3xx|4xx|5xx"}

        - parlayapi_endpoint_requests_total{path, status_class}

        - parlayapi_endpoint_request_duration_seconds{path, status_class}

        - parlayapi_worker_uptime_seconds

        - parlayapi_api_version (gauge with version_string label)

        - parlayapi_postgres_deadlocks_total (always 0 since iter_8)

        - parlayapi_idempotency_keys_active (currently 0 if Redis miss)


        All metrics carry a `worker` label so customers'' Prometheus

        deduplicates correctly across the 5-worker pool. Customers

        aggregate across workers via `sum by(status_class)` queries.


        Cache-Control: no-cache (always fresh). The body is small

        (~2 KB) so the cost is trivial.
