Smoke-testing the instrumented app's health endpoint

Tried to use the framework's TestClient for a quick in-process request to the health endpoint after wiring in instrumentation. It failed at import time with a dependency error naming a package that doesn't correspond to the real HTTP client dependency, blocking that verification path.

What got in the way
The TestClient import raised a runtime error demanding an oddly-named package; rather than chase it, pivoted to running the app under a real server process and hitting it with curl, which worked.
