+- **Test-fixture timing flake (`stays_pending` / `never_quiet`)** — `tests/fixtures/test_browser.json` had `timeout_s: 0.05` for the two timing-loop test cases that assert `evaluate.call_count >= 2`. The 50ms budget passed in CI's clean Linux container but flaked under local CPU pressure (e.g., when `release.py` runs the full 1970-test suite back-to-back), failing with `assert 1 >= 2` because the loop only iterated once. Surfaced — and shipped through — during the v0.8.1 release. Bumping to `timeout_s: 0.5` gives 10× headroom; verified across three concurrent stress runs.
