Evan MattsonandGitHub	fe4cd3cddc	Revert to public MCP server and skip on transient upstream errors (#5296 ) The local MCP server can't be used for hosted tools tests because Anthropic's backend needs to reach the MCP URL from their infrastructure (not localhost on the CI runner). Revert to learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp but catch BadRequestError, InternalServerError, APIConnectionError, and APITimeoutError and pytest.skip so upstream outages don't block the merge queue.	2026-04-16 11:46:49 +09:00
Evan MattsonandGitHub	611230cc8e	Python: improve misc-integration test robustness (#5295 ) * Python: use local MCP server for hosted tools test and broaden image assertion The hosted tools integration test was hitting rate limits on the external learn.microsoft.com MCP server, causing persistent failures that retries couldn't recover from. Switch to the local MCP server already spun up in CI via LOCAL_MCP_URL, skipping when the env var isn't set. Also broaden the image description assertion to accept common synonyms (cottage, mansion, villa, etc.) instead of just "house", since the model legitimately uses varied vocabulary for the same image. * Address review feedback: validate LOCAL_MCP_URL scheme and use word boundaries - Skip hosted tools test when LOCAL_MCP_URL lacks http/https scheme, matching the pattern used in test_mcp.py. - Use regex word boundaries for image assertion to avoid false matches like "villain" matching "villa".	2026-04-16 11:34:28 +09:00
Evan MattsonandGitHub	f112150cfb	Python: bump misc-integration retry delay to 30s (#5293 ) The misc-integration job (Anthropic, Ollama, MCP) frequently fails on merge to main when the upstream MCP server (e.g. learn.microsoft.com/api/mcp) returns a transient rate-limit error. The previous 5s retry delay is too short to ride out the upstream backoff window, so all retries fail and the merge queue is blocked. Bumping to 30s gives the upstream a chance to recover before pytest-retry re-runs the test.	2026-04-16 10:03:00 +09:00
