Curious, how was head gasket failure confirmed? Wet/dry compression check, milkshake oil, positive test for combustion gas in coolant? Has the engine ever overheated?

Please follow up with resolution.

I have remote start and when I got into my car that morning it was still freezing cold. When I took my car to the dealership I mentioned the heater wasn’t working so they did a compression check, and ran the codes which said cylinder 3 misfire.
Prior so the blown head gasket, my engine was making a fluttering noise when the engine it’s cold. I felt a reduced amount of power too. I checked the oil, checked the coolant reservoir and it was all fine.
The day I got the check engine light the coolant reservoir way past the full mark.
