"""Regression test for #1494: state.db connection FD leak via context-manager use.
The bug: Python's sqlite3 connection context manager (`with sqlite3.connect(...) as
conn:`) commits or rolls back on exit. It does NOT close the connection. In a
long-running server with sidebar polling (`/api/sessions` calls
`read_importable_agent_session_rows` and `read_session_lineage_metadata` on every
poll), every poll leaked one or more open file descriptors against `~/.hermes/state.db`.
In production this drove the WebUI process past macOS's 256-FD soft limit, after
which new requests reset before producing a response (see #1458, #1494) — the
process stayed alive, the port stayed listening, but every connection RST'd because
sqlite3.connect() in a freshly accepted handler raised on FD exhaustion before any
bytes were written.
The fix wraps each `sqlite3.connect(...)` in `contextlib.closing(...)` so the
connection is explicitly closed on scope exit (in addition to the auto-commit /
rollback semantics).
This file pins all four production callsites the issue reporter (insecurejezza)
audited as still leaking on master @ 7fddc33:
* api/agent_sessions.py:read_importable_agent_session_rows
* api/agent_sessions.py:read_session_lineage_metadata
* api/models.py:get_cli_session_messages
* api/models.py:delete_cli_session
Each test monkeypatches sqlite3.connect to track every connection the function
opens, then asserts every connection is .close()'d after the call returns.
