Research direction

Start with .github/workflows/smoke-gemini.md and the linked workflow run for PR #9016. Inspect the engine runtime logs and OTLP telemetry to confirm the Gemini HTTP 429 and determine whether retrying, reducing workflow concurrency, reviewing provider quota policies, or changing failure reporting is appropriate. Done means the smoke workflow no longer produces this failure or the reporting behavior is intentionally adjusted.
