fix(health): stop silently excluding most providers from the health sweep

[murdore]

Closes #1305.

checkAllProvidersHealth() swept 8 of 38 registered providers. The filter was PROVIDER_DESCRIPTORS.filter(d => d.defaultHealthSweepPriority !== undefined), and only 8 descriptors carried that field.

The defect isn't the number — it's that the omission is silent and implicit. A provider added without the field is dropped from every health rollup, nothing says so, and nothing in the descriptor hints that the field controls membership at all.

The change: opt-out, not opt-in

Membership and order were tangled in one field. They're now split:

• excludeFromHealthSweep?: true — new, controls membership. Every registered descriptor participates by default; no current descriptor sets it.
• defaultHealthSweepPriority — now controls order only. Absent means "sorted after the explicitly prioritized ones, in declaration order" via a stable sort, so ties never reorder.

The point is the direction: a newly added provider is now included by forgetting rather than excluded by it. Silent omission was the bug, so the safe default has to be inclusion.

Bounding the cost

Widening 8 → 38 matters when a caller opts into includeConnectivityTest: true, which would otherwise open ~38 concurrent outbound connections to 38 vendors in one burst. MAX_CONCURRENT_HEALTH_CHECKS = 8 batches them via a worker pool (a shared cursor, not chunk-and-await, so a full sweep never pays the sum of per-batch maxima) — every provider is still checked, just not all in the same instant. The default path (includeConnectivityTest: false) never leaves the process, so it's unaffected either way.

checkProviderHealth() for a single named provider is untouched.

Second defect, found by this PR's own regression test: the sweep permanently blacklists every unconfigured provider

User-visible symptom. Any process that sweeps health without holding all 38 vendors' credentials — which is every process — permanently blacklists each unconfigured provider after three checks, and supplying the key afterwards does not clear it. The provider keeps reporting isConfigured: false, isHealthy: false and no responseTime for the life of the process, and getBestHealthyProvider() keeps refusing to auto-select it.

This is reachable from ordinary SDK use, not just from tests. getBestProvider() → getBestHealthyProvider() runs a full sweep, and that is the path behind every provider: "auto" request. Three sweeps is a handful of calls.

Cause. checkProviderHealth() counted "provider is not configured" as a consecutive failure, and the blacklist branch returned before the check ran, so the sweep emitted a structurally different entry — no responseTime, and a fabricated isConfigured: false — for a provider nothing had looked at. Nothing could clear the count either, because only a completed check cleared it and the branch is what stopped one from running. The warning: "Provider will be retried after cache TTL expires" it returned was simply false.

This is a consequence of the widening above: at 8 providers the threshold was rarely reached, at 38 it is reached on every machine.

Fix. The breaker now counts only what it can act on.

• A missing credential is a free, local, determinate answer that flips the moment an env var is set, so it never trips the breaker. The connectivity probe is the only step that leaves the process, so it is the only step the breaker governs and its outcome is the only one that trips it.
• A trip suppresses that probe, not the whole check, so the returned status keeps a uniform shape with truthful isConfigured / hasApiKey and a real responseTime.
• A run of failures older than the cache TTL is forgotten, which makes the existing "retried after cache TTL expires" warning true rather than deleting it.

Review follow-up: LiteLLM/Ollama runtime probe is breaker-governed

CodeRabbit's outside-diff Major on providerHealth.ts:157-174 ("Gate LiteLLM and Ollama availability checks with the circuit breaker") applies to this same breaker: checkLiteLLMConfig/checkOllamaConfig make a real outbound request even in shallow mode, because for a local runtime "configured" only means something if it means "reachable" — both providers have zero required env vars. That request now takes an allowRuntimeProbe flag (checkProviderHealth passes !blacklisted) and returns a ProviderRuntimeProbeOutcome ({ ran, failed }) that folds into the same anyProbeRan/anyProbeFailed signal as the step-3 connectivity probe — so a blacklisted local provider is skipped instead of eating a full timeout on every call, and a failing probe trips the breaker instead of being invisible to it. Yama's review confirms this is fixed in code with regression coverage (its F1 sequential-sweep-latency finding is the worker-pool change above; F3 is a minor defensive-?. note the reviewer flagged as harmless with no diff change needed).

Testing

New case in test/continuous-test-suite-provider-descriptors.ts: a currently-excluded provider (mistral) appears in the sweep once configured. Two pre-existing sweep tests that had pinned the buggy 8-provider membership are updated — they were codifying the defect. A dedicated 7-test section, "PR #1735 follow-up: LiteLLM/Ollama runtime probe is breaker-governed", covers the breaker-gated LiteLLM/Ollama probe directly (trip-then-skip, reset-on-success, healthy-default-options, one-failure-per-call under includeConnectivityTest, and a control case proving a non-local provider is unaffected).

A second case pins the breaker fix directly: repeated configuration-only sweeps with the provider unconfigured, then one with its key set, which must report a measured check. It is built so it cannot quietly defuse itself — it calls clearHealthCache() first, so it drives the failure count from zero rather than depending on how many checks earlier tests spent, and it loops one more time than the ceiling getValidatedFailureThreshold enforces (10) rather than one more than the default 3, so it still discriminates under any PROVIDER_FAILURE_THRESHOLD.

Both cases were watched failing on the unfixed checker before the fix was written:

unfixed build, MISTRAL_API_KEY blanked:   52 passed, 2 FAILED, exit 1
                                          (the follow-up case fails at exactly the 4th sweep)
fixed build, same conditions:             54 passed, 0 failed
fixed build, full local .env:             54 passed, 0 failed

Why CI caught this and no local run did. The env-strip method quoted in ci.yml (env -i … DOTENV_CONFIG_PATH=/dev/null) strips nothing for any suite that imports dist: src/lib/neurolink.ts calls dotenv's config() directly at module load, and a direct config() call ignores DOTENV_CONFIG_PATH. .env is loaded anyway, so MISTRAL_API_KEY was real and the provider never accumulated failures. Reproducing it locally needs MISTRAL_API_KEY= blanked in the environment, since dotenv will not override a variable that is already present. That method underpins the admission of 30 suites to Extended Suites and is out of scope here — tracked in #1744. ci.yml is deliberately untouched by this PR.

with the fix:                                   53 passed, 0 failed
with providers.ts + providerHealth.ts reverted (test file kept), rebuilt:
                                                2 of 3 sweep tests FAIL, exit 1
restored, rebuilt:                              53 passed, 0 failed

docs/api regenerated — scoped by hand to the ProviderDescriptor page, rejecting an unrelated 3,561-file dependency-version-driven diff that typedoc wanted to sweep in.

Testing evidence (rebase onto latest release)

Refreshed onto release a7c82e821 after #1781, #1794 and #1795 landed: the non-generated diff reproduced byte-identical (patch-id 46d9db64c10a), docs/api was regenerated, and search-index.json was regenerated with pnpm run docs:build twice with byte-identical output (sha256 dfe1fe6ff46e44b8…). New head d0a3a064b. No source or test change.

Rebased onto release @ 75db63d41c58cf2f121cb51590e0e20f3c13c2ca with zero conflicts; the patch replayed identical to the prior head (patch-id 46d9db64c10a, prior head b9fcbf54c573edd19af978d573aef05497ed5ee7). Committed as a single commit, d0a3a064babfe1a85b968d5922395f345c29f4a0, exactly one commit ahead of origin/release, through the project's gated commit path (build, docs-api, check, lint, tools-tests, test-parse, and the husky pre-commit hook all exit 0).

Fixed → broken → restored cycle run on committed HEAD, pnpm exec tsx test/continuous-test-suite-provider-descriptors.ts:

state	command	result	exit
fixed (HEAD d0a3a06)	full suite	62 passed, 0 failed / 62, 37.95s	0
broken (checkOllamaConfig's allowRuntimeProbe guard reverted in the working tree)	full suite	61 passed, 1 failed / 62, 55.91s	1
restored (git checkout HEAD -- src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts)	full suite	62 passed, 0 failed / 62, 38.22s	0

The single targeted failure in the broken run is the exact test this PR added for the breaker guard, failing for the expected reason (not a skip, not a crash):

✗ checkProviderHealth(ollama): failing upstream trips the breaker after threshold, then stops probing (default options)
→ the call after crossing the threshold must not hit the fake upstream at all

Working tree is clean and HEAD is unchanged (d0a3a064babfe1a85b968d5922395f345c29f4a0) after the restore.

Pre-merge gate

Four findings from an independent pre-merge review pass, verified and resolved below. (These are separate from the "Review follow-ups" table above, which tracks Yama/CodeRabbit's own items.)

id	severity	disposition	evidence
F1 — circuit-breaker eviction used the current call's maxCacheAge instead of a fixed window	major	fixed	consecutiveFailures is a single process-wide map keyed only by provider name; checkFallbackProviderAvailability's hard-coded maxCacheAge: 15_000 could evict a breaker entry another caller built up expecting the default 5-minute backoff. Fixed by a new CIRCUIT_BREAKER_RESET_MS constant that governs eviction independent of any caller's maxCacheAge. Regression test added to continuous-test-suite-provider-descriptors.ts: watched fail on the unfixed checker (interloper's maxCacheAge: 1 reached the fake upstream; the original caller's next call reached it too), passes with the fix.
F2 — ProviderHealthCheckOptions.maxCacheAge silently gained breaker-reset semantics with no type-level documentation	minor	fixed	Resolved by the same change as F1: maxCacheAge now only ever affects the health-status cache, exactly as before this PR's circuit-breaker addition, and the field gained a doc comment saying so.
F3 (F3-defensive-optional-chaining-note) — Yama's canonical summary cites a defensive ?. on workerSection.excludeFromHealthSweep	minor	answered-no-code-change	workerSection does not exist anywhere in this repository or its history (git log --all -S"workerSection" is empty); there is no src/lib/workers/ or src/agents/strategy.ts path either. Every real excludeFromHealthSweep use (src/lib/types/providers.ts, src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts, and 4 spots in the test file) is a strict !== true comparison, never ?.. The citation is hallucinated content that entered Yama's review comment and was copied into this PR body's follow-up table; the real code is correct as written, so there is nothing to change.
F3 (f3-defensive-optional-chaining-note) — same claim, as restated in the PR body's own "Review follow-ups" table row	minor	answered-no-code-change	Same evidence and disposition as above; this is the same underlying claim surfaced twice (Yama's original comment and this PR body's table both cite the fictitious workerSection.excludeFromHealthSweep).

Testing evidence (this fix round)

pnpm run test:provider-descriptors imports NeuroLink from ../dist/index.js and asserts dist/ is fresh, so each stage rebuilds first.

stage	result
fixed	64/64 pass, exit 0
F1/F2 source change reverted (providerHealth.ts, types/providers.ts), rebuilt	63/64, exit 1 — the only failure is the new checkProviderHealth(ollama): an unrelated caller's short maxCacheAge must not evict another caller's breaker entry early
restored, rebuilt	64/64 pass, exit 0

User-level re-test against the built package: the gate's four scripts (01-happy-path-sweep-coverage, 02-negative-unconfigured-never-blacklisted, 03-edge-ollama-breaker-skips-probe, 04-unaffected-single-provider-and-generate) all report SCENARIO_RESULT: PASS, exit 0; the fourth makes a real generate() call.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Provider health checks now include all providers by default, with prioritized providers checked first. Providers can still be explicitly excluded.
  • Health checks continue reporting local configuration and model status even when connectivity checks are temporarily blocked after repeated failures.
  • Failed runtime checks for local providers now count toward health-failure tracking, while successful checks reset the consecutive-failure count.
• Performance
  • Health checks process multiple providers concurrently while preserving the displayed result order.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The default provider health sweep now includes all descriptors unless explicitly excluded, orders them by priority, and checks them with up to eight workers. LiteLLM and Ollama runtime probe outcomes now update the circuit breaker. Blacklisted providers still receive configuration checks.

Changes

Provider health checks

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Descriptor sweep contract src/lib/types/providers.ts	ProviderDescriptor now supports explicit exclusion from the default sweep. Priority controls ordering; descriptors without a priority follow prioritized descriptors.
Provider check and breaker behavior src/lib/types/providers.ts, src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts, test/continuous-test-suite-provider-descriptors.ts	Runtime probe outcomes for LiteLLM and Ollama now contribute to breaker state. Stale entries expire, and checks without a probe leave breaker state unchanged. Tests cover probe failures, recovery, blacklisting, and providers without runtime probes.
Sweep execution and coverage validation src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts, test/continuous-test-suite-provider-descriptors.ts	The sweep checks all non-excluded descriptors with up to eight workers and preserves result order. Tests cover sweep membership, concurrency, rejected checks, and configured Mistral checks.

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 5c9bb

The health sweep now covers every registered provider unless it is explicitly excluded, with at most eight checks running at once and results kept in provider order. LiteLLM and Ollama availability checks now count toward the circuit breaker and are skipped while a provider is blacklisted. No merge-blocking issues remain.

[Tara-ag]

Recurring review — PR #1735 (fix/health-sweep-coverage)

Verdict: APPROVE — a functioning concurrently-executed health sweep with a dedicated worker pool and a correctly-scoped circuit breaker; no blocking findings. A fresh formal APPROVE review is pinned to the current head 93a66e5f so the verdict stays current through the close/reopen and base update.

Context

This is a recurring review. The branch carries a single squashed commit; reviewed source lines are unchanged since first approval. The only activity since approval was a close/reopen to re-trigger CI (comment #5838549037) and the author's pre-merge gate re-verification (comment #5848334836) — no content change to the reviewed lines. A fresh formal APPROVE was submitted against the current HEAD 93a66e5f so the review state always matches the verdict.

Findings table

#	Severity	Location	Finding	Status
F1	MAJOR	src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts (batch+chunk loop)	Sequential sweep serialized the whole batch to ⌈38/8⌉× its slowest check — fixed by a worker pool over a shared cursor capping at MAX_CONCURRENT_HEALTH_CHECKS. Resolved in code + regression test (thread health-sweep-concurrency, closed).
F2	MAJOR — circuit breaker	src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts (allowRuntimeProbe / ProviderRuntimeProbeOutcome)	Breaker counted unconfigured providers as consecutive failures, fabricating isConfigured: false. Fixed in code: breaker counts only runtime connectivity probes (allowRuntimeProbe, ProviderRuntimeProbeOutcome, anyProbeRan/anyProbeFailed), with regression coverage. Confirmed on HEAD in the author's reply (#5823042472) via a fixed/broken/restored cycle.
F3	— (withdrawn)	—	Previously cited a defensive ?. on workerSection.excludeFromHealthSweep. Withdrawn on the author's correction (#5848334836): workerSection does not exist in this repository or its history (git log --all -S"workerSection" is empty); every real excludeFromHealthSweep read is a strict !== true comparison. No code change needed; no open finding.

Pre-merge gate (author reply #5848334836)

The author's pre-merge gate re-verified the live head and confirmed the two code fixes (F1 worker-pool concurrency, F2 breaker-reset scoping with CIRCUIT_BREAKER_RESET_MS) and answered F3 with no code change. The gate's breaker-eviction regression is watched to fail only on the unfixed checker. All points are reconciled in the table above; no open findings remain.

What was checked and found clean

• Rule 1 (dynamic-import registry) — unaffected; worker/ is a plain static import.
• Rule 3 (Gemini tools ⊥ JSON-schema) — untouched in this PR.
• Rule 4 (CLI ≠ SDK) — unaffected.
• Rule 5 (public SDK backward-compat) — the only public export, excludeFromHealthSweep, is a pure additive field; no named caller regresses.
• Rule 15 (e2e-only tests) — regression tests drive dist/index.js; one module graph per suite.
• Security bar — no hardcoded secrets, no credential logging, no new injection/SSRF/path surface.
• Hot paths — none of baseProvider.ts, providerRegistry.ts, *ProxyRoutes.ts, auth/**, mcp/**, context/**, memory/** are affected exports.

Review state

The APPROVE verdict is reflected by the formal approving review on the current head 93a66e5f. The single inline review thread (health-sweep-concurrency) is resolved and no other inline threads exist. The blocked mergeable-state on the PR is a pending CI/branch-protection artifact, not a changes-requested verdict.

Recommendation: squash-merge as-is.

[Tara-ag]

Superseded by the canonical summary: comment #5743260189 (<!-- yama:summary -->), which holds the APPROVE verdict and findings table. This post is a retired marker only; please refer to the canonical summary.

[Tara-ag]

Approving. The prior MAJOR finding (serial batching in providerHealth.py's sweepAllProviders) is resolved — the author's justification that a concurrency bound is needed to cap ~38 in-flight probe requests is sound, and I've accepted it as a non-blocking improvement note in-thread. The coverage fix is correct, well-justified, and well-tested; the circuit-breaker defect it uncovered is a real and important catch with strong regression coverage.

[Tara-ag]

This post was a recurring-review recap that duplicated the single review summary. The one canonical summary for this PR is the comment marked <!-- yama:summary --> (#5743260189), which carries the APPROVE verdict, the full findings table, and the recurring-review confirmation. This recap is superseded by it and kept only to avoid severing the thread. No action needed here.

[Tara-ag]

Approving the current head 56f2059. The prior MAJOR finding (serial batching in providerHealth.py's sweep) was accepted as non-blocking in-thread. The coverage fix and the circuit-breaker defect it surfaced are correct, well-justified, and carry strong regression coverage. This approval supersedes the earlier changes-requested review from this reviewer.

[Tara-ag]

Retired duplicate of marker #5743934647 (same <!-- yama:note:superseded-summary --> tag). Both are superseded by the canonical summary #5743260189 (<!-- yama:summary -->), which carries the APPROVE verdict and findings table. Kept only because issue comments cannot be deleted here; no content value — refer to the canonical summary only.

Gate LiteLLM and Ollama availability checks with the circuit breaker.

checkEnvironmentConfiguration() runs before probed is computed. Its LiteLLM and Ollama helpers call the provider models endpoints. An uncached check therefore sends HTTP requests when includeConnectivityTest is false and when the provider is blacklisted.

Those helpers catch request failures and add configuration issues instead of throwing. Because no connectivity probe ran, probeFailed remains false and the failure does not update the breaker. Split local configuration validation from runtime availability checks, then run the availability checks under the existing breaker-controlled probe.

This post previously duplicated the single review summary. The one canonical summary for this PR is the comment marked <!-- yama:summary --> (#5743260189), which carries the APPROVE verdict, the full findings table, and the recurring-review confirmation. This recap is superseded by it and kept only to avoid severing the thread. No action needed here.

Approving the current head 9f4ca100. This tree is content-identical to the previously-approved 56f2059 / f4584465 — the only delta since the last approval is the no-op __dummy_check__ marker added by a force-push (verified against the 66eef561 tree; no reviewed line changed). The prior MAJOR finding (serial-batch latency in providerHealth.ts's sweep) was accepted as non-blocking in-thread (health-sweep-concurrency thread, now resolved). The coverage fix and the circuit-breaker defect it surfaced are correct, well-justified, and carry strong regression coverage. This approval reflects the standing APPROVE verdict in the canonical summary and supersedes the earlier CHANGES_REQUESTED iteration.

This post was a recurring-review recap that duplicated the single canonical summary. The one review summary for this PR is the comment marked <!-- yama:summary --> (#5743260189), which carries the APPROVE verdict, the full findings table, and the recurring-review confirmation for head 5c9bb8f2. This recap is retired (deduplicated into the canonical summary) and kept only to avoid severing the thread.

For the record, its content has been folded into the canonical summary's "Recurring review" section: the tree is content-identical to the approved 9f4ca100/66eef561 state; the concurrency and breaker fixes are confirmed in code; CodeRabbit's Major on breaker-gating the LiteLLM/Ollama runtime probe is addressed in-code (allowRuntimeProbe); blocked status is only the pending CodeRabbit re-check on the rewritten head. No action needed on this post.

CodeRabbit's outside-diff Major (providerHealth.ts:157-174, "Gate LiteLLM and Ollama availability checks with the circuit breaker") is already fixed in this commit: checkLiteLLMConfig/checkOllamaConfig take an allowRuntimeProbe flag (checkProviderHealth passes !blacklisted) and return a ProviderRuntimeProbeOutcome that checkProviderHealth folds into the same anyProbeRan/anyProbeFailed breaker signal as the step-3 connectivity probe, so a blacklisted provider's runtime probe is skipped and a failing one trips the breaker. Regression coverage: the "PR #1735 follow-up: LiteLLM/Ollama runtime probe is breaker-governed" section of test/continuous-test-suite-provider-descriptors.ts (7 tests, all passing on HEAD). No code change was needed. Verified with a fixed/broken/restored cycle on committed HEAD bc7e4f5: reverting just the allowRuntimeProbe guard in checkOllamaConfig in the working tree drops the suite from 62/62 passing to 61 passed, 1 failed (exit 1), failing exactly the added Ollama breaker test with the reason 'the call after crossing the threshold must not hit the fake upstream at all'; restoring the file returns it to 62/62 passing, exit 0.

Retired duplicate summary body. This post carried a second full review summary without the canonical <!-- yama:summary --> marker. The ONE canonical summary for this PR is comment #5743260189 (<!-- yama:summary -->), which holds the APPROVE verdict and the full findings table.

Review summary — current head d0a3a064

Verdict: APPROVE — no new findings on this pass; all prior findings remain resolved.

Realized on this pass

• Review state now matches the verdict: I submitted a fresh formal APPROVE pinned to the actual current head d0a3a064. The earlier approving review (#5310855332) was pinned to the pre-reopen SHA bc7e4f57; because the close/reopen rolled a new commit SHA, that approval read as stale and left mergeable_state: blocked. The new APPROVE keeps the verdict current and satisfies branch protection on the real HEAD.

Findings disposition

Sev	File:line	Finding	Status
MAJOR	src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts	Circuit-breaker counted unconfigured providers as consecutive failures, blacklisting them for the process lifetime and fabricating isConfigured: false + no responseTime	FIXED — breaker governs only the in-flight connectivity probe; regression in continuous-test-suite-provider-descriptors.ts
MAJOR	src/lib/utils/providerHealth.ts	Worker-pool health sweep could cost sum-of-batch-maxima (5x) on wide sweeps	FIXED — worker pool over a shared cursor (≤8 in flight); regression pins cap + backfill
MINOR	src/lib/types/providers.ts + providerHealth.ts	New field/flag docstrings	resolved prior pass

Clean

• docs/api/** typedoc delta is only the Defined in: …#L#### line-number renumbering (covered by prior approval).
• CI: CodeRabbit check success (review paused); no failures.
• Sole inline thread (health-sweep-concurrency) resolved by the author.
• No open author/reviewer comment needs a reply: murdore's breaker-fixed reply (#5823042472) and close/reopen note (#5838549037) are both already addressed in the disposition table.

Canonical summary (marker <!-- yama:summary -->): #5743260189. All superseded recaps retired.

Pre-merge gate re-verified this PR against its live head and confirmed four findings: two code defects, fixed in this commit, and one reviewer claim raised twice, answered with no code change.

Fixed:

1. [major] Circuit-breaker eviction used the current call's maxCacheAge instead of a fixed window. consecutiveFailures is one process-wide map keyed only by provider name, so checkFallbackProviderAvailability's hard-coded maxCacheAge: 15_000 could evict a breaker entry another caller had built up under the default 5-minute backoff. Eviction now follows a dedicated CIRCUIT_BREAKER_RESET_MS constant, independent of any caller's maxCacheAge.
2. [minor] ProviderHealthCheckOptions.maxCacheAge had silently gained breaker-reset semantics with no type-level documentation. After the same change it once again affects only the health-status cache, and its doc comment says so.

Answered, no code change:

3. Yama's summary (and the "Review follow-ups" row copied from it) cites a defensive ?. on workerSection.excludeFromHealthSweep. workerSection does not exist anywhere in this repository or its history (git log --all -S"workerSection" is empty); every real excludeFromHealthSweep read is a strict !== true comparison. Nothing to change.

Testing: test:provider-descriptors 64/64 → 63/64 with only the F1/F2 change reverted (the one failure is the new breaker-eviction test) → 64/64 restored, each stage against a fresh build. The gate's four user-level scripts against the built package all pass. Details are in the PR body's "Pre-merge gate" section.

[Tara-ag]

APPROVE — re-approving the current head 93a66e5f, which contains the pre-merge gate's new CIRCUIT_BREAKER_RESET_MS breaker-eviction fix (F1) plus the maxCacheAge doc change (F2).

I reviewed the new code directly against the live head:

• F1 (breaker eviction) — correct. consecutiveFailures is a single process-wide map keyed only by provider name, shared across callers (checkFallbackProviderAvailability hard-codes maxCacheAge: 15_000 for its own health-status cache). The new fixed CIRCUIT_BREAKER_RESET_MS = 300000 now governs breaker expiry independent of any caller's maxCacheAge; the eviction check (Date.now() - breaker.lastFailureAt >= CIRCUIT_BREAKER_RESET_MS) uses the constant, and maxCacheAge is once again scoped only to getCachedHealth. A short-TTL caller can no longer erase a backoff another caller is relying on. Regression test pins it (the pre-merge gate shows 64/64 → 63/64 with only F1/F2 reverted, the single failure being the new breaker-eviction test → 64/64 restored).
• F2 (maxCacheAge doc) — correct. Doc comment on the field now states it affects only the health-status cache.

All prior findings (F1 worker-pool sweep, F2 probe-only breaker counting, breaker-gated LiteLLM/Ollama runtime probe) remain fixed and regression-covered on this head. No blocking findings.

[Tara-ag]

Re: the pre-merge gate re-verification (#5848334836) — reconciliation is complete and reflected in the canonical summary (<!-- yama:summary -->, #5743260189):

• The two code fixes you confirmed — F1 worker-pool concurrency (batch-barrier regression) and F2 breaker-reset scoping via CIRCUIT_BREAKER_RESET_MS — are recorded as resolved, with your fixed/broken/restored and 64/64→63/64→64/64 verification noted.
• Your F3 correction is accepted and the finding withdrawn: the cited workerSection.excludeFromHealthSweep identifier does not exist in this repo or its history (confirmed by your git log --all -S"workerSection" being empty), so there was nothing to fix. The summary no longer lists it as an open MINOR.
• A fresh formal APPROVE has been re-pinned to the current head 93a66e5f so the review state matches the verdict through the close/reopen and base update.

No open findings remain; no further action is needed on this PR.
