hermes_state.py: delete every '# noqa: F401 (re-exported...)' import block (hermes_state_common/errors/guard/
readpool/sessions/fts/dbfile/wal/repair/registry + agent.context_compressor _DB_PERSISTED_MARKER_KEY); keep
only the names hermes_state.py itself uses, without noqa.
hermes_state_registry.py: drop get_shared_session_db/release_shared_session_db/close_shared_session_dbs
aliases; every caller (gateway/, tools/, tui_gateway/, cron/, mcp_serve, run_agent, tests) now imports
acquire/release/close_all/release_or_close from hermes_state_registry.
hermes_state_titles.py: drop set_auto_title_if_empty shim (title_generator keeps its getattr fallback).
Re-remove shim-only names restored by 34abf954bd: latest_user_message_row_id (tests call
latest_message_row_id(key, role='user'); role-targeting assertions kept) and get_session_activity (tests
build the snapshot via agent.session_activity.build_activity_snapshot over db.get_session(sid)).
hermes_state_wal._log_once resolves its dedupe sets as module globals instead of via hermes_state;
hermes_state_repair helpers call module globals directly (tests patch hermes_state_repair.<name>).
Frozen updater surface untouched (update_cmd_maint imports only SessionDB from hermes_state).
Follow-up to b8f99bfc43: the seam edits for hermes_state_repair.py and tools/approval_detection.py
were overwritten by a concurrent squad's write before that commit landed (only their docstring
restores got in). Re-apply: _repair_conn/_open_exclusive/_db_opens_cleanly look up
_connect_repair_durable via hermes_state at call time; detect_dangerous_command/
detect_hardline_command look up _command_detection_variants via tools.approval, so patching the
facade (as tests/state/test_state_db_wal_unlink_race.py and tests/hermes_cli/test_approvals_test.py
do) reaches the call again, as on BASE 63279301bc.
Reviewer P2 (kshitijk4poor): tests patch hermes_cli.models.get_cached_nous_inference_base_url
but models_pricing.pricing_cache_scope read its own module global, so the patch never reached
the call and the test passed on the default-endpoint fallback. Same seam-erosion class audited
across /tmp/rf/patch_traps.json (777 candidates) with an AST reachability check + a per-test
call-count probe (facade vs defining module) against BASE 63279301bcb; three seams actually
bypassed their patch on HEAD but not on BASE:
- hermes_cli.models.get_cached_nous_inference_base_url <- models_pricing.pricing_cache_scope
- hermes_state._connect_repair_durable <- hermes_state_repair._open_exclusive/_repair_conn/_db_opens_cleanly
- tools.approval._command_detection_variants <- approval_detection.detect_{dangerous,hardline}_command
Each now looks the name up through its facade at call time (the pattern hermes_state_repair
already used in live_writer_holds_db), restoring BASE's patchability.
