+"""Regression test for TaskMaster #108 / INV-G10 — re-extraction must NOT delete
+chair-approved/published halachot.
+
+Bug (2026-06-08 amiel incident, בל"מ 8126-03-25): ``reset_halacha_extraction``
+ran an UNCONDITIONAL ``DELETE FROM halachot`` before re-extracting. A crash
+between the delete and the first chunk's store lost every chair approval (9
+approved + their rule_type) and left the row stuck ``status='processing'`` with
+0 rows.
+
+Fix: the delete now excludes ``review_status IN ('approved','published')`` so
+approvals survive a re-extract; the per-chunk dedup-on-insert
+(``store_halachot_for_chunk``) skips fresh extractions that duplicate a
+preserved approval, so no duplicates appear either.
+
+Runs fully OFFLINE — monkeypatches ``db.get_pool`` with a fake pool that
+captures every SQL string instead of hitting Postgres (same style as
+``test_precedent_corpus_isolation.py``). Asserts the DELETE carries the
+approved/published exclusion and that the function reports preserved/deleted
+counts.
