Severity	Location	Issue
🔴 Critical	gateway/util_test.go:494	The test `TestAreMapsEqual` is hardcoded to fail unconditionally via `t.Errorf`. While the pull request description notes this is intentional to test CI, this change will break the build if merged. 💡 Suggestion This line was likely added to test the CI system's failure reporting. It should be removed before this pull request is merged into any primary development branch.
