Reject partial snapshots before replacing the cache
When either tree discovery or the batched tree-account request fails, get_forester_status deliberately returns Ok(ForesterStatus) with an empty tree list (forester_status.rs:249-287 and 562-567). This branch therefore treats a degraded fetch as successful and replaces the last good cache with zero trees, zero pending work, and no assignments for at least the next refresh interval—the opposite of the stated last-good behavior. Propagate or otherwise identify these partial failures before publishing the snapshot.

Keep refreshes faster than forester rotations
When the protocol uses its 60-slot network default, a light-slot rotation lasts roughly 27.6 seconds, so this 30-second cadence is already longer than a rotation and the expensive fetch adds further delay. Because each snapshot embeds current_light_slot, slots_until_next_light_slot, and every tree's assigned_forester based on the sampled slot, /status can continue displaying the previous forester well into the next rotation. Refresh below the rotation period or recompute these time-sensitive fields when serving the cached data.

Make the status refresh cadence configurable.
STATUS_REFRESH_INTERVAL fixes every deployment at 30 seconds. Add an unprefixed environment variable and a CLI argument, validate the value, and pass the configured duration into run_status_provider.
As per coding guidelines, “Use environment variables for configuration instead of hardcoded values” and “Support both CLI arguments and environment variables for all configuration options.”

Fail over when the primary RPC is unhealthy.
This call always uses the same rpc_url. The failure branches only log the error, so consecutive failures keep the dashboard on a stale snapshot until that endpoint recovers. Route status refreshes through the configured RPC pool, validate candidates with getHealth, and switch to a fallback after a configurable failure threshold.
As per coding guidelines, “Implement automatic fallback RPC URL switching when primary RPC becomes unhealthy after consecutive failures exceed threshold,” “Validate RPC connections via Solana getHealth before use in the connection pool,” and “Use connection pooling for RPC requests with configurable pool size, timeouts, and retry behavior.”

What changed
public/copy from its Docker image.Why
The dashboard polled
/statusevery 10 seconds. Each request rebuilt all mainnet status data, downloaded roughly 230 MB of Solana account data, and took 8–10 seconds before returning its first byte. The browser bundle aborted after 8 seconds.Impact
After initial snapshot generation,
/statusresponds from memory in milliseconds. Dashboard clients no longer multiply full mainnet RPC scans.Validation
