Something that confuses me is that between the OG commit and the revert, the .evergreen.yml got updated by a bot which removed my env vars from .evergreen.yml, so reapplying the commit didn't put them back. However, the tests still seem to run, even though they should skip and log that if the right variables aren't present. So I guess having the right values in project settings without specifying them in the .evergreen.yml is sufficient?

You'll need to add them to .evergreen/evergreen.yml.in, which the .evergreen.yml file is generated from

Having them in the project settings may currently work as a way of passing these env vars, but I'd definitely prefer to use an explicit way of passing them if we can

Just confirming in the latest Evergreen run, none of the e2e failures have to do with the Streams tests in this PR

Quick bump on this @himanshusinghs @mongodb-js/mongosh-developers, would appreciate a review when you get a chance 🙏🏾 thanks in advance!

Not very familiar with streams but code looks reasonable to me.
