Upgrade Gemini CLI to v0.56.0-preview.1 to end false capacity exhaustion

Move to Gemini CLI v0.56.0-preview.1 so false capacity-exhaustion failures stop, real capacity exhaustion is terminal, MCP OAuth refreshes with the stored client ID, and the new local eval report path is available.

Why this loop

This preview fixes false model capacity exhaustion and core quota lookup model mapping, and reclassifies capacity exhaustion as a terminal error so agents fail fast instead of thrashing on bad quota signals. It also refreshes MCP OAuth tokens with the stored client ID, which reduces broken MCP tool sessions after expiry. feat(evals) adds a local report command plus developer documentation, giving a concrete loop for prompt/tool regressions. Upgrade if your runners show spurious capacity errors, flaky MCP auth, or missing local eval reporting.

Proposed actions

  1. Upgrade Gemini CLI to exactly v0.56.0-preview.1 from https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/releases/tag/v0.56.0-preview.1 and pin that version in the team agent runner image or devcontainer.
  2. Reconnect every MCP server that uses OAuth after the upgrade so token refresh uses the stored client ID fix (PR #28481).
  3. Replay a transcript that previously hit false capacity exhaustion; confirm the quota lookup model mapping fix stops the false error and true capacity exhaustion exits as terminal.
  4. Using the evals developer documentation added in this release, run the new local report command on your golden prompt set and save the report next to the prompt pack.
  5. Update runner wrappers: do not auto-retry capacity-exhaustion errors now that they are classified as terminal.
