* fix(memory): only delete memories the model explicitly drops in tidy
The AI memory-tidy path computed deletions as the complement of the model's
`keep` list (`if mid not in keep_ids: continue`). When the model returned a
valid response that simply omitted some existing ids — a common LLM lapse — every
omitted memory was silently deleted, even though it was neither a duplicate nor
listed in `drop`.
Honor the explicit `drop` set instead: delete only ids the model dropped (minus
any it saw only truncated), and preserve everything else, still applying cleaned
text/category from `keep`.
Adds tests/test_consolidate_memory_explicit_drops.py: a memory the model omits
from both keep and drop survives; an explicitly dropped one is removed.
* refactor(memory): remove now-dead keep_ids from tidy
After deletion switched to drop_ids and text/category rewrites to cleaned_by_id,
keep_ids was written but never read. Remove the init, the .add(mid) in the keep
loop, and the truncated .update() (its truncated-protection is already covered by
`drop_ids -= truncated_ids`). Pure deletion, no behavior change; tests stay green.
Addresses review feedback on #3455.

This file documents the shared test helpers and the review expectations that go
with them. The suite is being refactored incrementally, so this is a working
reference for that effort - not a claim that the suite is already fully
organized. Read it before adding a new helper or before reviewing a PR that
touches tests/helpers/.
For the broader rules - test taxonomy, determinism/isolation rules, the
behavioral-vs-source-text policy, and helper/factory extraction rules - see
TESTING_STANDARD.md. This file is the concrete helper
reference; that file is the standard the refactor works toward.
Core principles
Keep PRs small and homogeneous: one kind of change per PR.
Prefer explicit local setup over hidden global fixtures.
Avoid expanding the root conftest.py unless absolutely necessary.
Do not mix file moves with logic changes in the same PR.
Do not weaken tests with skip/xfail just to make CI pass.
Validate the focused files you changed, plus any neighboring or
order-sensitive groups they interact with.
Helper conventions
The helpers below live under tests/helpers/. They exist to remove repeated
boilerplate that already appeared across multiple tests. Reach for one only when
your test matches its intended use; do not stretch a helper to cover a new case.
tests.helpers.cli_loader.load_script
Use when a test needs to import a script under scripts/ without repeating
SourceFileLoader / importlib.util boilerplate.
Intended for script/CLI tests that load a single file from scripts/.
Not for arbitrary package imports - use a normal import for those.
When migrating an existing test to it, keep the existing stubs and assertions
unchanged. Any sys.modules stubs the script needs at import time must still
be injected (e.g. via monkeypatch) before calling load_script.
tests.helpers.import_state.clear_module
Use when a test must drop one cached module and its parent-package attribute
before a fresh import.
Clears sys.modules[name].
Clears the parent-package attribute when present.
Good replacement for local sys.modules.pop(...) + delattr(parent, child)
blocks.
tests.helpers.import_state.preserve_import_state
Use when a test temporarily installs stubs into sys.modules and needs
deterministic cleanup afterward.
Context manager: restores both sys.modules entries and parent-package
attributes on exit (normal or exception).
Useful around module-level stubs or temporary imports.
Prefer narrow, explicit module names over broad ones.
