The five _resolved_api_call_stale_timeout_base integration tests reloaded
hermes_cli.config + hermes_cli.timeouts via importlib.reload to clear cached
config. Under xdist that mutates module-global state shared across the worker
process, so a sibling test could leave the config cache in a state that made
get_provider_stale_timeout return a leaked value — intermittently failing
test_reasoning_floor_applies_to_opus_4_thinking (shard 6 flake, #52217 area).
Patch run_agent.get_provider_stale_timeout per-test instead: floor-path tests
get None (resolver falls through to the reasoning floor / env var / default),
the explicit-config test gets 60.0 (priority-1 short-circuit). Same assertions,
no shared-module mutation, deterministic under parallel execution.
