+### CL-035: TASK22242 apply relayPolicy overrides across broader endpoint cluster
+
+date: 2026-03-24
+author: Cline
+scope: `pages/api/endpoint/{getaccounts_api,getemailaccountcheck_api,getpreferredlanguage_api,getpersonalaccount_api,getlogin_api,getbasicsearch_api,getbasicsearchpaged_api,getadvancedsearch_api,getadvancedsearchpaged_api}.js`, `tests/phase21/endpoint-handler-contract.test.cjs`
+type: change
+rationale: Expand practical adoption of per-endpoint relay policy tuning so high-traffic account/login/search handlers explicitly declare timeout/retry posture rather than relying only on global defaults.
+impact: Better operational control and predictable retry behavior per endpoint cluster, with no API contract changes.
+status: completed
+
+Summary:
+
+- Added explicit `relayPolicy` usage to a broader endpoint set:
+    - account/login: `getaccounts`, `getemailaccountcheck`, `getpreferredlanguage`, `getpersonalaccount`, `getlogin`
+    - search: `getbasicsearch`, `getbasicsearchpaged`, `getadvancedsearch`, `getadvancedsearchpaged`
+- Applied conservative policy profiles by flow:
+    - login endpoint (`getlogin`): no retries (`maxRetries: 0`) and tighter timeout
+    - account lookup endpoints: low retry posture (`maxRetries: 1`)
+    - search endpoints: bounded retry posture (`maxRetries: 2`) for transient resilience
+- Kept method explicit as `GET` in policy for clarity and future-proofing.
+- Extended phase21 endpoint tests with relayPolicy propagation assertions:
+    - `getaccounts` relayPolicy pass-through
+    - `getlogin` strict relayPolicy pass-through
+    - `getbasicsearchpaged` relayPolicy pass-through
+
+Validation:
+
+- `node tests/phase21/endpoint-handler-contract.test.cjs` -> pass (155/155)
+- `node tests/phase21/relay-forwarding-hardening.test.cjs` -> pass (10/10)
+- `npm run lint` -> warnings only (pre-existing `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`; no new lint errors)
+
+Follow-ups:
+
+- Optional next slice: apply relayPolicy declarations to remaining relayGet endpoints in coherent batches (portal module/documents/DNS groups) and standardize policy presets in one shared constants module.
