-/**
- * @file        worker-with-unix-management.simple.skip
- *
- *              Tests and demonstrates how to bind the management daemon to a unix domain socket and
- *              query over it. It's marked skip because the worker requires an evaluator and doing so in CI
- *              is cumbersome. Run it manually.
