In single-process multi-profile runtimes (desktop tui_gateway), profile
scoping is a context-local ContextVar override, not a process env var. Three
subsystems froze their HERMES_HOME-derived paths at import time (or read
os.environ directly), pinning every later profile to whichever profile first
imported the module — a cross-profile data leak.
- tools/skills_hub.py: SKILLS_DIR/HUB_DIR/LOCK_FILE/etc. were module constants
frozen at import. Replace with per-call resolver functions; add a PEP 562
module __getattr__ so external 'from tools.skills_hub import SKILLS_DIR'
callers (all function-local) resolve dynamically with no call-site changes.
Convert default-arg bindings (HubLockFile/TapsManager) and the derived
HERMES_INDEX_CACHE_FILE constant too.
- gateway/platforms/base.py: image/audio/video/document cache-dir getters now
re-resolve via get_hermes_dir() per call, falling back to the module
constant when a test has monkeypatched it (preserves the existing test seam).
Media-delivery safe-roots already enumerate all profiles' cache dirs
(#31733), so per-profile resolution does not break delivery.
- gateway/rich_sent_store.py: _store_path() read os.environ['HERMES_HOME']
directly, bypassing the override entirely; route through get_hermes_home().
Telegram does not echo a sendRichMessage's content back in
reply_to_message (.text/.caption empty, .api_kwargs None), so replies
to rich sends (briefings, the gateway's own rich finals) arrived with
no quotable text and the [Replying to: ...] injection was skipped.
Remember message_id -> text at send time in a best-effort JSON index
(gateway/rich_sent_store.py), and recover it on inbound when text and
caption are both empty. Best-effort and no-throw throughout: any
failure degrades to prior behavior and never breaks a send or message.
Salvaged from #47375 by @x1erra. Dropped the cross-platform run.py
reply-prefix rewrite (out of scope; bloated every reply on every
platform) and scrubbed a docstring reference to an out-of-repo script.
Kept the inbound reply_to logging enrichment used to verify the fix.
