Fix #1927: fix: initialize() spawns new headless bridge without closing old one — process l

[Memtensor-AI]

Description

Fixes #1927: MemTensorProvider.initialize() was spawning a fresh MemosBridgeClient (and therefore a new --no-viewer Node bridge subprocess) on every call without closing the previously-referenced self._bridge, leaking ~93 MB per re-initialization. Hermes re-calls initialize() on each reconnect / new session, so orphaned bridges accumulated indefinitely — the headless-bridge reaper never collected them because their parent (Hermes dashboard / gateway) stays alive.

The fix mirrors the safe pattern already used by _reconnect_bridge() (line ~1727 of the same file): at the very top of initialize(), capture the current self._bridge, log its PID, call .close() inside contextlib.suppress(Exception) so a stuck Node subprocess never blocks re-init, and clear self._bridge before the existing creation flow runs. The fix is +19 lines in apps/memos-local-plugin/adapters/hermes/memos_provider/__init__.py, scoped entirely to the plugin sub-project; main src/memos/ is untouched and make openapi is not required.

Verification (TDD): added 3 regression tests in tests/python/test_hermes_provider_pipeline.py — test_initialize_closes_previous_bridge_before_spawning_new_one (the actual leak scenario, two queued FakeBridge instances), test_initialize_when_no_previous_bridge_does_not_call_close (first-init happy path), and test_initialize_swallows_exception_from_old_bridge_close (isolation when the previous bridge's close() raises). Tests #1 and #3 fail before the fix and pass after; full plugin Python suite is 45/45 passing. ruff check and ruff format --check both clean on the touched files.

Branch bugfix/autodev-1927 pushed to origin at commit 5a0a3fc3. Spec archive synced to memos-autodev-specs.
