Code Review
This impressive pull request significantly improves the project's quality, security, and deployability, introducing a proper project structure with "pyproject.toml", configuration management, input validation, structured logging, comprehensive documentation, and Docker support. Code quality improvements like pinned dependencies and extensive tests are also commendable. However, a security audit identified three vulnerabilities: a critical command injection in the "start_webui.sh" script, a high-severity Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF), and a medium-severity CORS policy issue. There are also a few minor suggestions to further enhance consistency and robustness.

The command export $(grep -v '^#' .env | xargs) used to load environment variables is critically vulnerable to command injection. If an attacker can write to the .env file, they can execute arbitrary commands. Furthermore, this method is not robust for parsing .env files and can fail if variable values contain spaces, quotes, or other special characters. A safer and more reliable approach is to use set -a (or set -o allexport) as suggested.

The endpoint /openlibrary/{isbn} passes the isbn parameter to the get_book_details_from_openlibrary function in main.py, which then uses it to construct a URL without proper sanitization. This is a Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerability. An attacker could provide a malicious isbn value to make the server issue requests to arbitrary internal or external services, potentially leading to information disclosure or network probing. The isbn parameter should be strictly validated to ensure it conforms to the expected format (e.g., using a regular expression) before being used to construct the URL.

The default CORS policy includes the null origin. This allows any local HTML file opened by a user to make requests to the API. An attacker could craft a malicious HTML file and trick a user into opening it, which would then allow the attacker to make requests to the API on behalf of the user. This could lead to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) or other attacks. You should remove null from the CORS_ORIGINS list.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The install-dev target reinstalls dependencies from requirements.txt and then installs ruff separately. This is inconsistent with pyproject.toml, which defines development dependencies (including ruff) under [project.optional-dependencies].dev. It's also inconsistent with the instructions in CONTRIBUTING.md, which recommend pip install -e ".[dev]".
To maintain pyproject.toml as the single source of truth for dependencies, this target should be updated to use the dev extras.

pip install -e ".[dev]"

In the /health endpoint, using app_state.get("library", Library()) is not ideal. If app_state somehow lacks the "library" key, this will create a new Library() instance on every health check, which involves reading the file from disk. This is inefficient and could lead to inconsistent state. The lifespan manager ensures app_state["library"] is available, so you can access it directly. This makes the code cleaner and avoids the unnecessary overhead of creating a new object.

This section contains dependencies that are either for development or appear to be unused.
pytestandpytest-covare development dependencies. They are correctly defined inpyproject.tomlunder the[dev]extra and should not be in the production requirements.python-dotenvseems to be unused, as configuration is handled byos.getenvand shell scripts.
Removing these will make the production environment leaner and establishes pyproject.toml as the single source of truth for dependencies. Developers can install them using pip install -e .[dev].
