Research direction
Start by reproducing the Gemini 3 Flash request and tracing how the Gemini provider handles the reported 503 UNAVAILABLE response. No file, test, or entry point is named, so completion criteria should be established from the provider's existing error-handling behavior and the expected handling of temporary upstream demand failures.
