# QA – Output & Async Validation (v1.2.0)

## Async job flow
- Submit: `POST /jobs {"query":"Async smoke test"}` → returns `job_id`
- Stream: `/jobs/:jobId/events` shows `submitted → started → agent_* → synthesis_token → report_saved → complete`
- UI: `/ui` displays lanes and tokens; `agent_usage` events present when provider returns usage
- Metrics: `/metrics` includes `jobs` counts and `usageTotals`

## Tools sanity
- `submit_research` → `get_job_status` shows events; `cancel_job` succeeds on queued jobs
- `search` returns typed hits from docs & reports; hybrid ordering plausible
- `query` blocks non-SELECT, `explain:true` returns concise summary

## Retrieval
- `index_url` adds doc; `search { scope:"docs" }` finds it
- BM25 k1/b configurable; vector fusion enabled when embeddings present

## Packaging
- `npx openrouter-agents --stdio` works; MCP JSON configs spawn server
