Conversation
…utation When PYAUTO_DISABLE_CRITICAL_CAUSTICS=1, _critical_curves_from() and _caustics_from() early-return empty lists, skipping the expensive eigenvalue/contour computation. Used by smoke tests to avoid unnecessary plotting overhead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Add
PYAUTO_DISABLE_CRITICAL_CAUSTICS=1environment variable that makes_critical_curves_from()and_caustics_from()early-return empty lists, skipping the expensive eigenvalue/contour computation used for plot overlays. This is used by smoke tests to avoid unnecessary plotting overhead.API Changes
Added one environment variable:
PYAUTO_DISABLE_CRITICAL_CAUSTICS=1. No changes to function signatures or public API. Existing behaviour is completely unchanged when the env var is not set.Test Plan
PYAUTO_DISABLE_CRITICAL_CAUSTICS=1 PYAUTOFIT_TEST_MODE=2— completes without critical curve overlaysFull API Changes (for automation & release notes)
Added
PYAUTO_DISABLE_CRITICAL_CAUSTICS=1— when set,_critical_curves_from()and_caustics_from()inautogalaxy/plot/plot_utils.pyreturn empty lists instead of computing critical curves and causticsMigration
None — no existing code needs changes. The env var is opt-in.
