Hi, I would love to build this resilient IPFS pinning service with multi-provider failover, content-hash verification, and a dedicated re-pin worker for CID durability. I'll ensure full Supertest coverage, optimized PostgreSQL queries, and updated OpenAPI specs while strictly maintaining your Node.js backend conventions.
