Summary
Implements the hot storage tier for ACMS with an in-memory LRU cache backend. This provides a fast, configurable first-tier cache layer with automatic eviction policies and optional callback support for warm-tier demotion, enabling efficient multi-tier storage architectures.

Root cause: The unit tests are hanging, likely due to an infinite loop or deadlock in the test execution. The implementation code appears correct:

tdd_a2a_sdk_dependency.featurefrom"Client"to"A2AClient"— but the a2a SDK exposesClient, notA2AClient. This caused the scenario to fail withAssertionError: Attribute 'A2AClient' not found in module, which in turn caused theunit_testsCI job to fail after ~4m26s.Fix: Reverted

Implementation Attempt — Tier 1: kimi — Success
Fixed the reviewer-requested change in PR #10783 (hot storage tier).
Root cause: The
thenstepremoving "{entry_id}" from the hot tier should return "{expected}"was callingcontext.hot_tier.remove(entry_id)directly instead of usingcontext.last_remove_result. This caused a double-removal: thewhen I removestep already removed the entry and stored the result incontext.last_remove_result, but thethenstep calledremove()again on the now-absent entry, always returningNoneinstead of the original content.Fix applied:

Re-Review: feat(acms): implement hot storage tier as in-memory LRU cache with configurable capacity
Prior Feedback: ADDRESSED ✅
The single blocking item from the previous review has been fully resolved:
step_then_remove_returnsandstep_then_remove_returns_nonepreviously calledremove()a second time instead of asserting oncontext.last_remove_result. This is now correctly fixed: boththen-steps assert oncontext.last_remove_result, and the feature file scenarios were updated to include theWhen I removestep before theThenassertions. ✅Code Quality Assessment
The core implementation in

1. CI Required Gates Failing (BLOCKING)
The following CI jobs are failing on this PR but passing on master:
CI / qualityCI / buildCI / helmCI / push-validationNote:
unit_tests,e2e_tests, andstatus-checkare pre-existing failures also seen on master itself, so those are not regressions introduced by this PR. However,quality,build,helm, andpush-validationare clean on master and failing here. Per policy, all required CI gates must pass before a PR can be merged.The two empty CI-retrigger commits pushed to recover from the infrastructure outage may not have successfully resolved these failures. Please push a new non-empty commit (or rebase to clean history) to trigger a fresh CI run, and verify all four gates pass.
Additionally: The
coveragegate shows as skipped — it was likely skipped becauseunit_testsfailed upstream. Coverage ≥ 97% is a hard merge gate. Onceunit_testspasses, verify coverage is still ≥ 97%.2. Unclean Commit History (BLOCKING)
The branch contains two empty CI-retrigger commits that should not be present in final PR history:

ISSUES CLOSED: #9972footer (required by contributing rules)Per CONTRIBUTING rules, all commits must be atomic and meaningful. Please interactively rebase these two empty commits out of the branch history before this PR can be merged.
Additionally, commit
55183cfc(fix(test): revert tdd_a2a_sdk_dependency to use Client not A2AClient) is missing the requiredISSUES CLOSED: #9972footer.Non-Blocking Observations
Suggestion: The
then-stepstep_then_remove_returnsacceptsentry_idas a parameter but does not use it — the fix correctly ignores it in favour ofcontext.last_remove_result. Consider renaming the step pattern fromremoving "{entry_id}" from the hot tier should return "{expected}"tothe last remove from the hot tier should return "{expected}"to make it clear this step reads cached state rather than performing a new removal. This is a suggestion only and does not block approval.Suggestion: The two CI-retrigger commits use the
ci:type prefix, which is typically reserved for CI configuration changes, not for empty commits created to re-trigger a runner. If empty retrigger commits are needed in future, consider usingchore: retrigger CIto be more precise.Summary
The core implementation is correct and well-crafted. The prior review feedback was fully addressed. The remaining blockers are:

entry_idparameter is accepted by this step function but is never actually used — the step readscontext.last_remove_resultregardless of which entry ID is named in the Gherkin step. This is a minor discrepancy between the step signature and its behaviour. Consider either: (a) removingentry_idfrom the step pattern so it readsthe last remove from the hot tier should return "{expected}", or (b) adding an assertion thatentry_idmatches the key that was last removed (if that context is tracked).

📋 Estimate: tier 1.
New ACMS hot-storage LRU tier: 6 files, +901/-4, multi-file with new logic, new BDD feature suite, package structure additions. The implementer's own 36 scenarios pass, but CI fails on features/actor_run_signature.feature (unit_tests) and integration_tests — a different subsystem entirely. The fix requires cross-file investigation to determine whether the actor_run_signature failures are a pre-existing flake (CI runner reaper pattern), a regression caused by the new ACMS module import side-effects, or an unrelated breakage. Resolving this requires reading test output, tracing the actor module, and potentially fixing a regression — standard cross-file engineering work. Tier 1 is appropriate; tier 2 is not warranted since the failure signal is narrow (one feature file) and the new code is self-contained.

🔧 Implementer attempt —
ci-not-ready.The new step `the hot tier size_bytes should be {n:d}` in features/steps/acms_hot_storage_tier_steps.py shared the matched pattern of the existing `the hot tier size_bytes should be {expected:d}` step in features/steps/acms_context_analysis_engine_steps.py — Behave's step registry strips parameter names when computing the pattern, so both compile to the same regex. Every scenario hitting the step raised AmbiguousStep at run-time, which Behave reports as "errored" (not "failed"); that produced the 6 errored scenarios on `features/acms_hot_storage_tier.feature` (lines 9, 96, 101, 149, 202, 210) seen in CI unit_tests. Rename the new step and its `at most` companion to `the hot storage tier size_bytes should be ...` (mirroring the HotStorageTier class name) so the patterns no longer collide with the analysis-engine TierDistribution step. Update the 8 feature-file references in `acms_hot_storage_tier.feature` to match. The other-metric steps (entry_count, hit_count, miss_count, max_entries, max_bytes) keep their `the hot tier` prefix because they have no analogous collision — the analysis-engine file uses `count` (not `entry_count`), so they are already unambiguous.
