Subject: [PATCH] docs(bf-4lid): verify test environment configuration helpers

All acceptance criteria verified:
1. IsTestMode() correctly detects test mode
2. GetTestMaxRetries() returns DefaultTestMaxRetries (1) by default
3. GetTestMaxRetries() respects MAX_RETRIES environment variable
4. ConfigureTestEnv() sets all 7 required environment variables

All 19 subtests in TestHelperFunctions pass.

-# Test Environment Configuration Helper Verification
+# Test Environment Configuration Helpers - Verification
 
-## Summary
+## Task
+Verify test environment configuration helpers work correctly according to acceptance criteria.
 
-Verified and completed test coverage for test environment configuration helper functions in `proxy/helpers_test.go`.
+## Results
 
-## Changes Made
+All acceptance criteria verified and passing:
 
-### Added Test Cases to `TestHelperFunctions`
+### 1. IsTestMode() ✅
+- Implementation (line 29-32): Returns `true` if `ZAI_PROXY_TEST_MODE=="true"` OR `testing.Testing()`
+- Test (line 594-599): Verifies it returns `true` during test execution
+- Status: PASS
 
-1. **`GetTestMaxRetries_WithOverride`** - Tests that `GetTestMaxRetries()` correctly respects the `MAX_RETRIES` environment variable:
-   - Valid values: 0, 1, 5, 100 are properly parsed and returned
-   - Invalid values: "abc" (text), "-1" (negative) fall back to `DefaultTestMaxRetries` (1)
+### 2. GetTestMaxRetries() default value ✅
+- Implementation (line 34-43): Returns `DefaultTestMaxRetries` (1) when no override
+- Constant (line 26): `DefaultTestMaxRetries = 1`
+- Test (line 601-606): Confirms default is 1
+- Status: PASS
 
-2. **`ConfigureTestEnv`** - Tests that `ConfigureTestEnv()` sets all required environment variables:
-   - `MAX_RETRIES` = "1" (DefaultTestMaxRetries)
-   - `ZAI_PROXY_TEST_MODE` = "true"
-   - `DEPLOYMENT_VARIANT` = "test"
-   - `TOKEN_COUNTING_ENABLED` = "false"
-   - `RATE_LIMIT_INITIAL` = "1000"
-   - `RATE_LIMIT_MIN` = "1000"
-   - `RATE_LIMIT_MAX` = "1000"
+### 3. GetTestMaxRetries() env override ✅
+- Implementation (line 37-40): Parses `MAX_RETRIES` env var if set
+- Test cases (line 608-633):
+  - Valid values: 0, 1, 5, 100 all parsed correctly
+  - Invalid values ("abc", "-1") safely default to 1
+- Status: PASS
 
-## Test Results
+### 4. ConfigureTestEnv() sets all variables ✅
+- Implementation (line 45-57): Sets 7 required environment variables:
+  - `MAX_RETRIES` = "1"
+  - `ZAI_PROXY_TEST_MODE` = "true"
+  - `DEPLOYMENT_VARIANT` = "test"
+  - `TOKEN_COUNTING_ENABLED` = "false"
+  - `RATE_LIMIT_INITIAL` = "1000"
+  - `RATE_LIMIT_MIN` = "1000"
+  - `RATE_LIMIT_MAX` = "1000"
+- Test (line 635-658): Verifies each variable is set correctly
+- Status: PASS
 
-All tests pass successfully:
