April 2026: Targeted bug fix to improve SSE stream reliability in Prysm by excluding /eth/v1/events from the global HTTP timeout handler. This change prevents premature closure of SSE streams when api-timeout is configured, while preserving timeout behavior for all other routes. Delivered with focused test coverage for the SSE bypass, stabilization of TestServer_StartStop (replacing a goroutine log assertion with require.Eventually), and PR hygiene improvements (new changelog fragment and detailed PR notes). Impact: more reliable real-time event delivery for SSE subscribers; improved overall API stability and uptime. Technologies: Go, HTTP timeout handling, SSE, Go testing, changelog management, PR process.
