Changed

Supply Chain v2 — bump chokepoints & minerals cache keys to v2; add aisDisruptions field to ChokepointInfo (proto, OpenAPI, generated types, handler, UI panel); rename Malacca Strait → Strait of Malacca; reduce chokepoint Redis TTL from 15 min to 5 min; expand description to always show warning + AIS disruption counts; remove Nickel & Copper from critical minerals data (focus on export-controlled minerals); slice top producers to 3; use full FRED series names for shipping indices; add daily cache tier (86400s) and move minerals route to it; align client-side circuit breaker TTLs with server TTLs; fix upstream-unavailable banner to only show when no data is present; register supply-chain routes in Vite dev server plugin
Cache migration: old supply_chain:chokepoints:v1 and supply_chain:minerals:v1 Redis keys are no longer read by any consumer — they will expire via TTL with no action required
