Bug: Backend Health Check: Silent Failure, Delayed Errors.
The backend health check loop exits without verifying success. If the backend fails to start within 60 seconds, the workflow silently continues to build and test, causing cryptic failures later instead of failing fast with a clear error about backend unavailability.

Replaces monolithic CI scaffold with two parallel workflows optimized for speed and resource efficiency per qa_vibe.json requirements.

Frontend E2E depends on backend: E2E tests validate complete user workflows including API calls and event streaming, requiring backend service availability.
Separate workflows over monolithic: Path-based filtering prevents unnecessary runs. Backend tests skip when only frontend changes, saving ~10 minutes per PR.
All validation passing: actionlint, yamllint, shellcheck
