2025-06-19	Refactor: Extract magic numbers as constants and reduce client code duplication	Paul Buetow
	- Created internal/constants package with organized constant files: - timeouts.go: All time duration constants (timeouts, intervals, delays) - channels.go: Channel buffer size constants - limits.go: Numeric limits and configuration values - buffers.go: Buffer size constants in bytes - Replaced all magic numbers throughout codebase with named constants: - Time durations (2s, 3s, 5s, 10s, 100ms, 24h) now use descriptive constants - Buffer sizes (8KB, 64KB, 1MB) extracted to constants - Channel buffer sizes and multipliers - Configuration limits (max connections, concurrency, etc.) - Health check status codes - Percentage calculations - Reduced code duplication in client implementations: - Created CommonClient to share functionality between CatClient, GrepClient, and TailClient - All three clients now inherit from CommonClient - Eliminated duplicate makeHandler() and makeCommands() methods - Simplified client constructors This refactoring improves code maintainability by centralizing configuration values and reducing redundant code across similar client implementations.
