+### CL-033: Phase 19 endpoint consistency slice — createwatchedcases guard hardening + noisy log cleanup
+
+date: 2026-03-14
+author: Cline
+scope: `pages/api/endpoint/{createwatchedcases_api,getappealtypes_api,getdnslist_api}.js`, `tests/phase19/service-behaviour.test.cjs`, `memory-bank/*`
+type: change
+rationale: Deliver a small reversible consistency-only slice for selected sensitive endpoint handlers by standardizing invalid required input handling and removing noisy logging without changing contracts.
+impact: Improves negative-path consistency and logging hygiene for selected handlers; response signatures/shapes preserved.
+status: completed
+
+Summary:
+
+- `createwatchedcases_api` now consistently rejects missing/malformed required `@odata.bind` values with early 400.
+- Removed noisy query URL logging in:
+    - `getappealtypes_api`
+    - `getdnslist_api`
+- Added focused behavioural test pack:
+    - `tests/phase19/service-behaviour.test.cjs` (5 tests)
+

+- `node tests/phase19/service-behaviour.test.cjs` -> pass (5/5)
+- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing hook dependency warnings)
+
+Follow-ups:
+
+- Continue same small-batch consistency pattern for remaining sensitive endpoint handlers only where clear guard/logging drift exists.

 ## Safe execution mode for migration chunks (required)
 
 To reduce terminal hangs during bulk migration work, run refactor chunks in **safe stepwise mode** instead of long chained commands.
