+///
+/// # Current Limitations
+///
+/// **NOTE:** This test helper has known limitations that should be addressed in a follow-up PR:
+///
+/// 1. **Environment-dependent behavior**: The test changes its behavior dynamically based on the
+///    exact execution environment of the test runner (e.g., whether running in a container, whether
+///    certain environment variables are set).
+///
+/// 2. **Non-deterministic across environments**: What passes on a local machine may fail in CI (or
+///    vice versa) because the underlying entity detection functions return different values in
+///    different environments.
+///
+/// 3. **Incomplete test coverage**: We only exercise the codepaths that happen to be triggered in
+///    the current test environment, not all possible combinations of entity headers being
+///    present/absent.
+///
+/// **Future improvement**: The ideal approach would be to refactor the underlying code
+/// (`libdd_common::entity_id::get_container_id()`, `get_entity_id()`, etc.) to be more testable,
+/// perhaps by making them accept injectable dependencies or configuration. Then we could test all
+/// combinations: container-id [Some/None] × entity-id [Some/None] × external-env [Some/None] to
+/// verify correct header inclusion/exclusion in all 8 cases.
+///
