Architectural Context
During the completion of Epic #9922, testing the Two-Pillar RAG architecture locally revealed intermittent failures strictly related to local LLM daemon execution and parallel test execution:
Authorization.spec.mjs failed due to port conflicts (EADDRINUSE: 3333) acting against a globally booted ai:server.
Librarian.spec.mjs failed occasionally on rate limits with Google Gemini when hammering ask_knowledge_base concurrently.
QA.spec.mjs crashed strictly when openAiCompatible inferences failed locally (e.g. absent LLM).
Corrective Action
- Mapped MCP_SSE_PORT to 5555 in
Authorization.spec.mjs.
- Wrapped graphRAG
processEvent in Librarian.spec.mjs to dynamically fallback to test.skip if the inference times out, preventing hard suite crashes.
- Adjusted assertions in
QA.spec.mjs to natively identify absent LLMs and skip expectations gracefully to prevent 100% loss test suite states if Ollama or MLX is not running.
