Research direction
No source file or test is named. Start by reproducing the Gemini 2.5 Flash request and tracing the provider error-handling path for the returned 429 RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED response. Done would require identifying a concrete, project-side behavior to change and verifying it with a focused test; the report alone does not define that behavior.
