Add a middleware (or extend existing Helmet config if present) that sets X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff and X-Frame-Options: DENY on every API response. Place this middleware early in the Express app setup, before route handlers. If Helmet.js is already configured, verify these headers are enabled and add any that are missing. Add a test that makes a request to any endpoint and asserts both headers are present with correct values.
