+## 2026-03-08 - GCP Logging Client Caching with Project-Aware Map
+**Learning:** Google Cloud Logging client requires a specific `projectID` parameter during initialization. To cache Logging clients effectively in a multi-project TUI environment, standardizing on a project-aware thread-safe map cache with a `sync.Mutex` prevents expensive credential discovery (~300ms) and connection overhead on every log stream, while ensuring different projects resolve to their correct cached clients. Using `context.Background()` avoids connection teardowns due to transient request-level context cancellations, and a no-op `Close()` preserves the shared connections.
+**Action:** Use project-aware maps for caching GCP clients that are bound to a specific project ID upon creation, and ensure proper test isolation by resetting global maps.
+
 ## 2026-03-07 - GCP Execution & Project Client Caching
 **Learning:** Incomplete caching of GCP client wrappers in remaining packages (`job/execution` and `project`) meant that loading job execution tables or searching for GCP projects still suffered from repetitive credential discovery and connection establishment, degrading TUI interactivity. Standardizing stateful `GCPClient` caching via thread-safe lazy-initialization with `sync.Mutex` completely eliminates this overhead.
 **Action:** Ensure all Cloud SDK APIs used in the application leverage the stateful lazy-initialization cached client pattern with proper thread-safety.
