AI Summary: This GitHub issue requests the addition of RGB to NV12 color conversion functionality within OpenVINO's `PostProcessSteps`. This feature is necessary for super-resolution models that convert NV12 video data to RGB for inference and then need to convert the output back to NV12. The task involves implementing a new `convert_color` API, potentially a new `op::v8::RGBtoNV12` operation, and supporting both single and two-plane NV12 formats with corresponding test cases.

AI Summary: This issue addresses the instability of unit tests that currently make direct calls to a live test server, leading to race conditions and sporadic failures. The goal is to refactor these tests to use mocks or patches instead of remote server connections, ensuring they function as true unit tests. This involves identifying affected tests across several files and implementing mocking for `requests.Session` or higher-level API calls.

AI Summary: This issue proposes making the `--load` argument mandatory or at least triggering a warning when the system is operating in evaluation mode. Currently, if a checkpoint isn't loaded via `--load` during evaluation, the program fails with a cryptic `IndexError` later on, rather than providing a clear indication of the missing argument.

AI Summary: The `Cell.universe` attribute in the `montepy` library cannot be reset to `None` or deleted once it has been assigned a value, despite initially being `None`. This prevents users from effectively 'nullifying' the universe attribute, resulting in a `TypeError` when attempting to set it to `None` and an `AttributeError` when trying to delete it.

AI Summary: The user reports that zizmor's SARIF output currently maps both "Low" and "Medium" native severities to "warning", losing crucial differentiation present in its native JSON output. They request that SARIF output should more accurately reflect zizmor's native severity and confidence levels, proposing a granular mapping (e.g., High to error, Low to note) or at least including the native values in SARIF properties.

AI Summary: Users frequently encounter "Access Denied" errors with S3 and other AWS services in Metaflow due to incorrect credentials. Debugging these issues is currently difficult because Metaflow does not easily expose which AWS profiles or credentials it is utilizing. The proposal suggests adding an option to surface more verbose debugging information about the AWS credentials Metaflow is using to help triage these problems.
