Subject: [PATCH 01/12] fix(db): address review feedback on HNSW iterative scan
 PR

1. Restrict HNSW_ITERATIVE_SCAN to Literal type (fail-closed at config load)

2. Use SELECT set_config with bind params instead of f-string SET

3. Add tests for config validation and listener registration

4. Add docs note in configuration.mdx

 event.contains() per coderabbit review

Replaces callable()-only check with sqlalchemy.event.contains() to prove the connect listener is actually registered on the engine. Also tests the disabled path by calling the handler with HNSW_ITERATIVE_SCAN=None to confirm it short-circuits without executing SQL.

Subject: [PATCH 07/12] fix(review): address CHANGES_REQUESTED on #1077

- Move pyright ignore comments onto constructor lines (not above)

- Fix implicit string concatenation in RuntimeError (basedpyright)

- Skip version gate when HNSW_ITERATIVE_SCAN='off' (only strict_order/relaxed_order)

- Add early return in _set_hnsw_iterative_scan_on_connect when value is None

- Rewrite disabled-listener test docstring to be honest about what it tests

- Add test_version_gate_skipped_when_off regression test

1. Remove 'full top_k' guarantee from docs/config/db comments: pgvector may stop at max_scan_tuples or scan_mem_multiplier thresholds.

2. Strengthen test_connect_listener_not_registered_when_disabled: AssertingCursor raises AssertionError if execute is called.

3. Strengthen test_version_gate_skipped_when_off: invoke init_db with fake engine, assert pg_extension query never executes.
