Used by ``test_golden_decoded_vcr.py`` and ``test_golden_decoded_vcr_expansion.py``
(extracted so the two modules don't cross-import — see the
``tests/_guardrails/test_no_cross_test_imports.py`` gate: a shared helper belongs
in a ``_``-prefixed non-test module both test modules import).

    recorded response), not a test bug — the message says so, and names the
