0xyg3n 9f95f72b98 fix(agent): strip api_messages in thinking-signature recovery so the retry actually omits thinking blocks
The thinking-signature recovery in agent/conversation_loop.py popped
reasoning_details from messages, then continued to retry. That had two
defects.

First, the strip never reached the wire payload. api_messages is built
once at the start of the turn by shallow-copying every entry in messages
(line 919 area). Each api_messages entry has its own reference to the
same reasoning_details list. When build_api_kwargs runs on every retry
iteration of the inner while-loop, it consumes api_messages, not
messages. Popping reasoning_details from messages left api_messages
untouched, so the retry's request still carried the same thinking
blocks Anthropic had just rejected. The classifier latched
thinking_sig_retry_attempted = True after the first attempt, and the
loop terminated with max_retries_exhausted on the same 400.

Second, the pop mutated the canonical message list. messages is the
same list _persist_session writes to state.db and the session
transcript, so a single recovery permanently wiped every signed
thinking block from the stored conversation. Subsequent turns reloaded
the stripped state, hit the same 400 ('invalid signature' or 'cannot
be modified', see #24107), and the agent stopped responding entirely.
Cascading compaction-ended sessions then chained off the corrupted
parent and the affected chat could not produce a response on any
future turn.

Move the strip onto api_messages, which is the API-call-time list
rebuilt into kwargs on every retry. messages is no longer touched, so
disk I/O stays clean and the recovery actually reaches the wire.

Observed against the native Anthropic Messages API on claude-opus-4-7
and claude-opus-4-8 with the interleaved-thinking-2025-05-14 beta on
hermes-agent 0.12.0 and 0.14.0. PR #24107 narrows the trigger; this
change makes the recovery do what it always claimed to do, and
prevents the destructive aftermath.

Tests cover the api_messages strip in isolation: pop on a shallow copy
does not affect the source, the canonical messages list survives the
strip, idempotency on a duplicate firing path, and a no-op when no
reasoning_details exist on the messages.
