GitLabCli.test.ts + GitLabSourceControlProvider.test.ts: 22 passed, exit 0.
GitManager.test.ts filtered to creates fork requests with provider-specific source identity: gitlab + bitbucket 2 passed, 102 excluded by filter, exit 0.
Initial unfiltered three-file check ended exit 143 after the 22 GitLab tests passed; full GitManager suite not verified.
No source edits, commits, pushes or check:changed run in this verification pass.
