Assessment

This issue has not been assessed yet.

Description

Parent: #523

Objective

Create a single validated env/config surface to prevent late runtime failures and inconsistent module-level env access.

In scope

  • Introduce centralized env schema validation (required vars + type coercion)
  • Export typed config consumed by runtime modules
  • Migrate selected modules from direct process.env reads to typed config

Acceptance criteria

  • Startup fails fast with actionable errors when required env vars are missing/invalid
  • Typed config object is the primary read path in touched modules
  • Reduced ad-hoc env access in updated areas
  • Tests cover invalid/missing env behavior

Notes

Adopt incrementally to minimize merge conflict risk.
