 - Lazy PSA loading: search returns results without waiting for PSA, frontend fetches PSA separately
 - Pre-warm cache: track-prices scheduler pre-caches active listings + PSA for tracked cards
 - Fast card-first search: autocomplete → card share → demo search → render in 2-3s (was 30s)
+- Client-side format filtering: Raw excludes slabs, Slab matches provider+grade
+- Client-side condition filtering: instant without re-fetch
+- Sort by grade (high to low) added to sort dropdown
+- Pagination: 25 listings per page with "Show more" button
+- Autocomplete suppressed on hint chip clicks
 - eBay relevance filtering: blocklist expanded (art case, sleeves, playmat, booster, etc.), applied to active+sold
 - Arbitrage alerts: notify when cross-source spread exceeds threshold (POST /api/alerts with type "arbitrage")
 - Price drop alerts: notify when price falls below target (POST /api/alerts with type "price")

 - Card identity: cleaned up long names (strips pack names, condition text from titles)
 - track-prices: now also tracks cards from active alerts, not just 3 hardcoded defaults
 - Demo condition filter: checks detectedCondition in addition to raw condition field
-- Tests: 271 total (128 unit + 80 API + 63 smoke), up from 183
+- Tests: 278 total (128 unit + 80 API + 70 smoke), up from 183
 - AI grading prompts: full PSA rubric (5-10), perspective correction, per-corner/edge detail, holo-specific surface guidance
 - Demo grades re-evaluated with improved prompts (more conservative scores, honest confidence)
 - Removed dead code: Redis import from api.js, updateCardField from card-identity.js
