Janis	a9f4606b40	feat: force delete pod immediately on heartbeat loss Build & Test (NowChessSystems) TeamCity build finished Details When instance stream drops, immediately force delete the K8s pod (grace period 0). No waiting for health check or pod watch events. Reduces failover latency and ensures stale pods don't linger. Co-Authored-By: Claude Haiku 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-05-18 20:36:26 +02:00
