Proposed fix: [RunPod serverless] Running handler.py locally exits: "test_input.json not found, exiting." / "Job has no input parameter. Unable to run."
Recommended action: Create test_input.json {"input": {...}} or pass --test_input '{"input": {...}}'; do not run the handler in Dockerfile RUN steps.
