Summary of Changes

Hello @zerofishnoodles, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request addresses a critical bug where the static discovery health check thread would continue to run indefinitely even after reconfiguration, leading to resource leaks. The changes introduce a robust mechanism to properly terminate this background thread and its associated asynchronous event loop, ensuring that resources are released cleanly and preventing unintended background processes.

Highlights

• Resource Management: Introduced a _running flag within the ServiceDiscovery class to control the execution of the health check loop, enabling graceful termination.
• Asynchronous Operations: Replaced time.sleep with asyncio.sleep in the check_model_health method to ensure non-blocking asynchronous delays, improving concurrency.
• Graceful Shutdown: Implemented a new close method in the ServiceDiscovery class responsible for setting the _running flag to False, stopping the associated event loop, and joining the health check thread, thereby ensuring proper resource cleanup upon reconfiguration or shutdown.

Code Review

This pull request addresses a bug where the health check thread in StaticServiceDiscovery was not being terminated upon reconfiguration, leading to resource leaks. The changes introduce a close method to StaticServiceDiscovery to manage the lifecycle of the health check thread. The use of asyncio.sleep instead of time.sleep is a correct and important fix for the async health check function. My review focuses on making the new close method more robust to ensure a clean shutdown of the asyncio resources.
