// summary
Your strongest next move is to fix the highest-severity issue first, then compare the cleanup against the original before shipping anything.
// sharing
Public roasts can land in the leaderboard. Private reviews stay out of it and are better for real code you do not want exposed.
// compare
Use the original and fixed blocks below to spot naming, logic, and structure changes quickly instead of reading the whole thing twice.

Error Handling Disaster
Catching all exceptions and doing absolutely nothing about it. This is like having a fire alarm that just silently observes the building burn to the ground.
?
JSON String Literals
Manually crafting JSON strings instead of using a proper serializer. This is an open invitation for encoding issues and vulnerabilities to come and play.
?
Lack of Config Flexibility
Hardcoding the config data directly in the code. Because who needs flexibility or the ability to easily change settings, right? It's not like this will become a maintenance nightmare or anything.
