fix: ignore unknown session end events

[a652]

Summary

• make POST /agentmemory/session/end an idempotent no-op for missing, malformed, or already-completed sessions
• serialize session-end updates with observation capture using the existing per-session lock
• only publish event::session::stopped after a real active-to-completed transition
• skip legacy session rows without a valid id before looking up summaries
• add behavioral regression coverage for unknown sessions, partial rows, valid session completion, and resilient session listing

Root cause

iii-engine's state::update has upsert semantics. Calling /agentmemory/session/end for a session that had not yet been created therefore wrote a partial row containing only status and endedAt.

api::sessions later attempted kv.get(KV.summaries, s.id) for that row, where s.id was undefined. That invocation could remain pending until timeout, making the dashboard and MCP surface appear to contain zero sessions even though the valid rows were still present.

OpenClaw exposes this race when /new emits session_end(reason: "new") before the conversation has produced its first successful observation, but the server endpoint should be safe for every integration.

Verification

• npm test: 1,715 passed, 1 skipped
• npm run build: passed
• live regression against iii-engine 0.11.2:
  • ending an unknown session returns HTTP 200 with ended: false
  • no session row is created
  • /agentmemory/sessions continues to return all valid sessions

Changes

Session lifecycle API

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Validate and complete sessions src/triggers/api.ts, test/session-lifecycle-api.test.ts	api::session::end validates sessions under a per-session lock, prevents duplicate completion, reports the transition result, and publishes the stopped event only after a real transition. Tests cover missing, malformed, completed, and active sessions.
Filter sessions before summary lookup src/triggers/api.ts, test/session-lifecycle-api.test.ts	api::sessions excludes malformed rows before agent filtering and summary retrieval. Tests verify that undefined summary keys are never read.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to 5f5a9

The change makes unknown or already-completed session endings safe no-ops and adds regression coverage; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains beyond normal checks and review.

Session, including its required id and completed status. Invoke the session-end
handler and assert success with ended false and reason already_completed, while
verifying kv.update is not called and no stopped lifecycle event is emitted;
keep the existing partial-row not_found test unchanged.
- Around line 1-5: Update the test module setup to add the required
vi.mock("iii-sdk") mock, preserving mocks for sdk.trigger and kv.get, kv.set,
