-`WebConfig.java` - Added SSE events path to interceptor exclusion list
-`application-test.yml` - Added 1s ping interval for faster SSE test assertions
## Decisions Made
- Excluded SSE events path from ProtocolVersionInterceptor -- EventSource clients cannot easily add custom headers, so the SSE endpoint is exempted from protocol version checking
- Used reference equality (==) in SseEmitter callbacks to avoid removing a newer emitter when an old one completes -- directly addresses Pitfall 3 from research
- Used java.net.http.HttpClient async API for SSE integration tests instead of adding spring-boot-starter-webflux -- avoids new dependencies and tests true end-to-end behavior
## Deviations from Plan
None - plan executed exactly as written.
## Issues Encountered
- Surefire fork JVM hangs ~30s after SSE tests complete due to async HttpClient threads holding JVM open -- not a test failure, just slow shutdown. Surefire eventually kills the fork.
## User Setup Required
None - no external service configuration required.
## Next Phase Readiness
- Full bidirectional agent communication complete: agents POST data, server pushes commands via SSE
- Phase 4 (Security) can add JWT auth to all endpoints and Ed25519 config signing
- All agent endpoints under /api/v1/agents/ ready for auth layer
