Problem
Completing a task moves its Markdown file and calls
upsert_task()to refresh the SQLite index. Both completion paths supplied only the new path, status, title, and content.upsert_task()has replacement semantics, so the omitted values were written back as defaults. Completing a task therefore cleared its source, source URL, deadline, and tags. The missing tags also removed them from full-text search.Fix
Carry the metadata from the existing database row into the completion upsert in both
task_done_handler()andTaskManager.mark_done(). This keeps the change local to completion and leaves the intended replacement behavior ofupsert_task()unchanged.Verification
Added regression coverage for both completion paths that verifies:
memory/tasks/done/129 passedacross the task completion, task status, and database suites.
