The first cache-enabled litellm-e2e build (211) showed three gaps in the shared provider cache:
Every OpenAI response carries Cloudflare bot-management Set-Cookie headers, and the capture rejected any response with Set-Cookie, so no OpenAI response was ever recorded (179 of 372 misses rejected). The edge already withholds Set-Cookie from the proxy, so drop it before validating and storing instead of rejecting.
The provider prompt-caching tests need fresh provider state: a replayed priming response reports cache creation rather than a cache read, and the TPM test then trips the key limit. Mark both modules provider_live.
TestApiBaseSeam::test_live_mode_returns_none ran inside the cache-enabled runner and saw the shared edge; isolate it from E2E_PROVIDER_CACHE.
The e2e harness exists to prove product features end to end against a live
proxy. The prior Hard Rule carved out an exception for "tests that cover the
harness itself" and pointed at coverage_registry/test_collector.py, which in
practice invited unit tests of harness helpers to be staged alongside e2e
work. That is the wrong tool: harness logic that is worth locking down does
not need a mock-driven unit test living under tests/e2e.
Drop the carve-out. The Hard Rule now reads that no unit tests of any kind
belong under tests/e2e, and the passing mention of unmarked harness coverage
in the transport section is removed so the doc no longer contradicts itself.
coverage_registry/test_collector.py still exists on disk and is left in place
for now; whether to relocate or remove it is a separate decision.
create-release.yml is back to calling the chaos test through no mechanism at
all; it never called it. Also drops the E2E_REDIS_CHAOS opt-in gate itself:
the redis_chaos marker still exists for -m selection and is still excluded
from the per-PR selector by path (tests/e2e/(ui|claude_code|load)/), but the
test no longer needs an env var to run once its file is targeted.

Now that create-release.yml gates stable and RC releases on this test directly,
the weekly schedule is redundant: every release gets a run against its own
commit instead of whatever happened to be on the default branch that Saturday.
workflow_dispatch stays for manual runs.

Local runs measured 3.5 KB per request, so 10 KB keeps close to 3x headroom
while tightening from the earlier 12 KB.

Local runs measured p50 0.19s, p90 0.23s, p99 0.69s, so 2s/3s/5s left several
times that as slack. 1s/2s/3s keeps a comfortable margin while catching a
smaller regression than the looser ceilings would have.

Three local runs measured 1.33x-1.36x, so 2x is the tightest bound the data
supports and still catches a regression far smaller than 4x would. Noted in the
comment that this is the ceiling to loosen first if a weekly run trips it,
since core count shifts how much of baseline CPU is fixed per-request work.

RSS moved 0.91x-1.40x across three identical local runs, so it stays loose at
2x rather than the arbitrary 1.5x carried over from the pre-padding-payload
calibration. CPU per request held steady at 1.33x-1.36x across the same runs,
so 4x replaces the looser 6x it inherited from stale numbers.

A ratio against the healthy phase cannot bound either metric. Once the Redis
circuit breaker opens, a request skips Redis instead of waiting on its socket
timeout, so the chaos phase can measure cheaper than the baseline it is compared
against: local runs came in at 0.61x baseline p90 while a log-bytes ratio read
724x. Splitting Budget into RatioBudget and AbsoluteBudget lets RSS and CPU keep
the ratio they need, since both are machine-shaped, while latency and log volume
get the wall-clock ceiling a user actually cares about.

Pad the locust payload to tens of KB so per-request bookkeeping cost scales with
body size instead of hiding behind a 40-byte prompt. Turn on
use_redis_transaction_buffer in the chaos config and JSON_LOGS in the workflow so
the spend buffer, pod lock, and JSON-encoded breaker tracebacks are all part of
the measured chaos cost. Add a log-bytes-per-request budget alongside latency,
RSS, and CPU, reading the proxy's log file size at each phase split; its ceiling
is uncalibrated since no chaos run has measured it yet.
