What: 11 provider tests hardcoded the sector "Budgets". The 2026-09-24 dev refresh from prod removed it, so every create flow timed out at the sector dropdown.
Why it matters: provider-smoke has been red on every CI push and PR since then (e.g. #122, #124), and it gates frontend and backend deploys.
Evidence: at -n 3: 5 failed, 21 min before the fix → 17 passed, 0 reruns, 15 min after.
Fix: #128. A live sector_name fixture reads sectors from the backend; the stale constants are removed.
