Research direction
Start by comparing the staging example with the six linked Grafana test views and their logs, focusing on cases whose final line is "Starting kernel ...". Done means documenting the failure pattern and identifying the affected test-handling area or a reproducible cause; the issue names no source file or test entry point.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
