Independent review caught a compaction authority the gate missed:
post-turn micro-compaction (turn_finalizer -> _micro_compact) absorbs the
oldest exchanges into a rolling summary with no pre-compress checkpoint
hook in its path, and both compression.checkpoint_required and
compression.micro_compact could be enabled together — assistant evidence
could vanish into a summary the checkpoint filter later excludes, without
ever reaching the durable provider.
- agent_init: checkpoint_required forces micro-compaction off (warned),
mirroring the native-compaction suppression
- turn_finalizer: defense-in-depth guard at the call site (attribute is
plain mutable state a future path could flip on a live agent)
- behavioral regression test with a sabotage control (gate off proves the
harness reaches the call site; gate armed proves zero calls)
- docs + config example mention the suppression; stale v1 test header fixed
