The GET /api/offers route at packages/web/src/app/api/(server)/offers/route.ts returned a JSON body but the response was served with Content-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8 because new Response(JSON.stringify(offers)) does not set a content type. Node.js / Next.js default the content type to text/plain for a string body, even when the body is JSON. This is the only public API route in packages/web/src/app/api/(server)/ that uses new Response(JSON.stringify(...)) without setting Content-Type. Every other public JSON route — /api/health, /api/version, /api/blame, /api/source, /api/connections, /api/ee/audit, /api/ee/scoped_access_token — uses Response.json(...) or sets the header explicitly. The OpenAPI spec for /api/offers already declares the response as application/json, so the actual response was violating the documented contract. Strict API clients (CLI tools, OpenAPI-generated SDKs, third-party integrations) inspect Content-Type before parsing. A client that sees text/plain;charset=UTF-8 will refuse to parse the body even though it is valid JSON. The in-app getOffers client happens to work because response.json() ignores Content-Type, but that is a coincidence of the Web fetch API, not because the response is correct. Fix: add 'Content-Type': 'application/json' to the response headers. One-line change, body unchanged, no client broken. Also added route.test.ts with 3 vitest cases (status 200 + JSON body, Content-Type: application/json, Cache-Control header preserved). The OTel suite-load error and posthog import are mocked the same way other tests in this repo handle them. Fixes sourcebot-dev#1595

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Assert the complete header contract.
toContain("application/json") also accepts invalid values such as application/jsonp. The cache assertions also permit extra directives that change cache behavior. Assert the media type exactly, allowing an optional charset, and assert the expected cache policy.
Proposed test update
- // Next.js / Web Headers are case-insensitive, but be defensive
- const contentType = response.headers.get("Content-Type") ?? response.headers.get("content-type") ?? "";
- expect(contentType).toContain("application/json");
+ const contentType = response.headers.get("Content-Type") ?? "";
+ expect(contentType.split(";", 1)[0]?.trim()).toBe("application/json");
...
- const cacheControl = response.headers.get("Cache-Control") ?? "";
- expect(cacheControl).toContain("public");
- expect(cacheControl).toContain("max-age=300");
+ expect(response.headers.get("Cache-Control")).toBe("public, max-age=300");Also applies to: 66-70

Summary
GET /api/offerswas returning a JSON body withContent-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8becausenew Response(JSON.stringify(offers))does not set a content type. This is the only public API route inpackages/web/src/app/api/(server)/that usesnew Response(JSON.stringify(...))without settingContent-Type; every other public JSON route usesResponse.json(...)or sets the header explicitly. The OpenAPI spec for this endpoint already declares the response asapplication/json, so the actual response was violating the documented contract.Why this matters
Strict API clients (CLI tools, OpenAPI-generated SDKs, third-party integrations) inspect
Content-Typebefore parsing. A client that seestext/plain;charset=UTF-8will refuse to parse the body even though it is valid JSON. The in-appgetOffersclient happens to parse regardless ofContent-Typebecauseresponse.json()ignores it, but that is a coincidence of the WebfetchAPI, not because the response is correct.Changes
packages/web/src/app/api/(server)/offers/route.ts— add'Content-Type': 'application/json'to the response headers. One-line change, body unchanged.packages/web/src/app/api/(server)/offers/route.test.ts— new file, 3 vitest cases that pin down the three observable invariants of this route: status 200 with the mocked body,Content-Type: application/json, and the existingCache-Control: public, max-age=300header preserved. The OTel suite-load error and theposthogimport are mocked the same way other tests in this repo handle them.Validation
yarn workspace @sourcebot/web test --runreturns 1157/1157 tests pass (3 more than the prior baseline of 1154 — the 3 new tests in this PR). The 7 pre-existing@opentelemetry/sdk-trace-basesuite-load failures inee/askmcp/...andee/permissionSyncStatus/...are unchanged and not introduced by this PR.git diff --checkclean.new Response(JSON.stringify({a:1}))returnsContent-Type: text/plain;charset=UTF-8;Response.json({a:1})returnsContent-Type: application/json. Same engines, same behavior at the route layer.application/json; this change makes the actual response match it.Test plan
yarn workspace @sourcebot/web test --run src/app/api/(server)/offers/route.test.ts(3 cases, all pass).yarn workspace @sourcebot/web test --run(full suite, 1157/1157 pass with the same 7 pre-existing OTel suite-load failures as before this PR).Risks
None. The body is unchanged; only the response header is corrected. Clients that were already parsing by sniffing or by
response.json()are unaffected. Strict clients that were rejecting the response start working.Note
