test: prune low-value tests suite-wide (wave 1) — 46,820 → 28,106 test functions
Systematic prune per AGENTS.md test policy, one pass over every major
test tree (gateway, hermes_cli, tools, agent, run_agent, plugins, cli,
cron, tui_gateway, honcho/openviking, root-level):

- DELETE: source-reading tests (read_text/getsource on prod files),
  change-detector tests (exact catalog counts, model-name snapshots,
  config version literals), mock-echo tests (assert a mock returns what
  it was told), assertion-free/trivial tests, near-duplicate
  parametrizations (boundaries + one representative kept), async/sync
  twin duplicates, cosmetic within-file variations.
- KEEP (mandatory): security/redaction/approval guards, message-role
  alternation invariants, prompt-caching/deterministic-call-id
  invariants, issue-number regression tests (deduped), E2E tests.
- 6 test files deleted outright (script-style/no-assert or fully
  redundant); conftest.py, fakes/, fixtures/ untouched.
- tests/acp/conftest.py added: autouse fixture stubs the live
  models.dev/GitHub/Copilot/Anthropic inventory fetches that ACP server
  tests performed on every session create — test_server.py 147s → 3.4s,
  and the tests are now genuinely hermetic.
- Sleep-based slowness shrunk where safe (codex_ttfb_watchdog,
  compression_concurrent_fork, etc.); no wall-clock assertion tightened.

Verification: full hermetic suite via scripts/run_tests.sh —
2439 files, 31,130 tests passed, 0 failed, 0 flaky retries, 315s wall
(baseline: 583s wall, 13,564s subprocess CPU).

"""Regression tests for the Codex time-to-first-byte (TTFB) watchdog.
The chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex endpoint has an intermittent failure mode
where it accepts the connection but never emits a single stream event. The
watchdog in ``interruptible_api_call`` kills such a connection at a short TTFB
cutoff (instead of waiting out the much longer wall-clock stale timeout) so the
retry loop can reconnect promptly. Once any stream event arrives, the TTFB
watchdog is satisfied and a separate idle watchdog handles streams that stop
emitting SSE events.
The "bytes flowing" signal is ``agent._codex_stream_last_event_ts``, set on
*any* event by ``codex_runtime.run_codex_stream`` — so reasoning-only or
tool-call-only turns (which emit no output-text deltas) are not mistaken for a
stall.
