Uses fake timers throughout. 99%+ coverage.\n- Also implemented missing heartbeat APIs in AgentStore (updateAgentState, assignTask, getAgentDetail, recordHeartbeat, getHeartbeatHistory, heartbeat runs) and HeartbeatMonitor class following StuckTaskDetector patterns. Fixed getMemory(id, 0) bug where slice(-0) returned all entries instead of empty array."
