🐛 Known Issues & Limitations

Phase 8 - In Progress

25 infrastructure tests disabled pending OAuth2 SecurityConfig refactor
- These tests require specific Spring Security configurations
- Will be re-enabled once SecurityConfig is refactored for Spring Boot 4 compatibility
- No functional impact on production code

Browser Compatibility

Modern browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) supported
WebSocket streaming recommended for optimal experience
