2026-05-30 — Enterprise readiness, night 7 (blocks 58-60)

Lead form abuse detection (block 58)

  • lib/lead-abuse.ts scores every dojo-lead submission on 10 heuristics (honeypot, fast submit, link spam, suspicious TLDs, automation user-agents, non-Latin script…).
  • Verdict ≥80 = silently dropped; ≥35 = stored as 'review' status, downstream fan-out skipped (no SMS, no outbound webhooks, no CRM push); <35 = normal flow.
  • Score + reasons stored in lead.enrichment.abuse for audit.

Weekly digest one-click unsubscribe (block 59)

  • RFC 8058 List-Unsubscribe + List-Unsubscribe-Post headers added to weekly client digest emails.
