What steps can reproduce the bug?

There are currently over 150 pull requests awaiting review and merge, which is significantly blocking progress. I've been trying to test the project for over two weeks using the Ollama stack, but I’m unable to proceed due to a pending PR. This particular PR addresses a regression introduced by a previous merge related to OpenAI login logic that ideally should’ve been caught earlier.
To prevent these bottlenecks, I recommend implementing automated testing and review pipelines (CI) specifically for the alpha branch. This would streamline PR validation and help maintain stability without delaying development cycles. Branch workflows exist for this exact purpose—let’s make them work for us.

What is the expected behavior?
