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).
A bare SQLITE_CORRUPT/NOTADB on a live write (not FTS-scoped, not a
replaced file) now sets a sticky per-instance flag: later writes fail
fast with StateDbCorruptError, the handle never reopens after close(),
and close() skips its explicit PASSIVE WAL checkpoint. Gateway and agent
flush paths divert pending transcripts to JSONL/spool like the replaced
case instead of retrying forever.
Field evidence: a handle that kept writing for ~50 minutes after the
first structural error checkpointed 15 pages under the wrong page
numbers on shutdown (page 1 <- messages_fts_trigram_data leaf), turning
"malformed" into "file is not a database".

A concurrent WAL checkpoint / reset / frame-flush can surface SQLITE_IOERR
to a reader on a perfectly healthy database: a mode=ro connection cannot
perform the WAL recovery the read needs, because recovery writes the -shm
index and read-only mode refuses. The window is millisecond-scale.
Today that one-shot error escapes the SessionDB read-only constructor, and
GET /api/sessions turns it into a 500 the desktop reads as an authoritative
empty list.
Retry it, bounded, in the constructor so every read-only opener is covered —
the sidebar poll, cross-profile aggregation, recall, browse — rather than at
one route. A persistent IOERR still exhausts the budget and propagates.
Remaining transient failures answer 503, so the client keeps the list it has.
On the write path, BEGIN IMMEDIATE can hit the same transient IOERR before
the callback runs. That one is safe to retry on the same connection because
nothing has been mutated; once the callback starts, settlement is unknown and
the error propagates. Never close()+reopen to heal it — close() cancels this
process's POSIX advisory locks on the file for every sibling connection, and
a list poll's reader must stay disposable so a replaced state.db is observed
and the pre-repair forensic backup stays reachable.
