The csv-json integration test intermittently timed out at 30000ms on
the first worker-backed job in a fork. Root cause: waitForJob() creates
the BullMQ QueueEvents consumer lazily on first use, and a fresh consumer
reads the Redis events stream from "$" (the tail at the moment its run
loop starts). A trivial tool can publish its completed:<id> event before
the brand-new consumer positions itself, so waitUntilFinished() never
sees the event and blocks for the full sync-wait window. In tests
SYNC_WAIT_MS is floored at 30000ms, exactly the vitest per-test budget,
so the stall surfaces as an opaque timeout instead of a 202 fallback.
This is also a latent production latency bug: the first synchronous tool
request after each boot could hang up to the 8s prod window.
Fix: warmQueueEvents() eagerly constructs and connects every pool's
consumer at spine startup, before any job is enqueued, so each consumer
is positioned at the stream tail up front and never misses a completion.
Awaited in the test spine (deterministic for the first request) and fired
non-blocking at prod boot (a slow Redis must not stall startup).
Adds a regression guard in job-spine.test.ts that drops the cached
consumers, warms explicitly, and asserts a fast job's completion is
captured on the first sync-wait.
Verified: 3 parallel stress runs (276 file-runs across all pools), zero
timeouts; targeted job-spine + csv-json suites green; typecheck clean.
The fifth user-facing group is now Image, Video, Audio, PDF, Files
(internal modality id stays "file"; section.ts "files" was already
"Files"). Updates modality.ts label + comment, all 21 i18n locales
(categories.data "Data Files"->"Files", modalities.documentsAndFiles
"PDF & Data"->"PDF & Files", dead homePage.data), landing cards/hero
search/tools filter, docs headings, and e2e modality-tab assertions
(/^Data/ -> /^Files/, which had been failing).
#276's overhauled integration tests + QA sweep scripts hit the old
sectionless /api/v1/tools/<id> routes, which 404 after #280 made routes
section-prefixed. Ran scripts/rewrite-tool-paths.ts for literal URLs and
converted dynamic /api/v1/tools/${id} constructions to apiToolPath().
Negative-test paths (nonexistent/fake tools) intentionally left raw.
Move all fixture files from flat/mixed dirs (content/, media/, documents/,
formats/, hostile/, root loose) into the modality-first hierarchy:
image/{valid,formats,edge,hostile}, video/{valid,formats,hostile},
audio/{valid,formats,hostile}, document/{valid,formats,edge,hostile},
data/valid/, security/. Update index.ts paths, fixtureDir aliases,
all literal refs in 17 e2e/qa/script files, manifest.json, and the
three generator scripts. 163 files moved, 0 dropped, 100 new tests
from expanded document scan.
