The connector now depends on the single multiplexed gateway for per-profile
relay routing, so hosted deployments need to FORCE multiplexing on regardless
of the image's config.yaml. gateway.multiplex_profiles was config.yaml-only,
which a user could leave unset or flip off.
Add GATEWAY_MULTIPLEX_PROFILES as a standard operator override on top of the
existing config key — the same 'config.yaml is canonical, env is the operator
override' pattern the Telegram/Signal require_mention bridges use:
env (recognized token) > config.yaml (top-level or nested gateway.*) > False
- gateway/config.py: _env_multiplex_profiles_override() resolves the env var
tri-state — recognized truthy/falsy token → bool; unset/blank/unrecognized
→ None (fall through to config). Blank is deliberately None, not False, so a
provisioned-but-unpopulated Fly secret ('') can't shadow a config.yaml opt-in
(the empty-secret trap). Wired into GatewayConfig.from_dict so every consumer
(run.py, session.py via self.config) sees the resolved value.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py: the named-profile-start guard
(_guard_named_profile_under_multiplexer) reads config.yaml directly, so it
gets the SAME env precedence — otherwise env-forced multiplex would leave the
guard blind and someone could start a conflicting per-profile gateway that
double-binds a bot token. Env-forced-on trips the guard even with no
config.yaml key; env-forced-off disables it over a config opt-in.
Tests: full 3-tier precedence in test_config.py (incl. the discriminating
env-overrides-config cases + the empty/whitespace/unrecognized fall-through
trap + resolver tri-state), mutation-verified (flipping precedence fails
exactly the two env-wins tests); guard env cases in test_multiplex_lifecycle.py.
Force-on is safe on a single-profile instance: session keys stay byte-identical
(agent:main) and the _run_agent wrapper installs the per-turn secret scope, so
the fail-closed get_secret() path is satisfied.
- _guard_named_profile_under_multiplexer: when the default gateway is running
with gateway.multiplex_profiles=on, a named-profile 'hermes gateway run' hard
-errors (pointing at the multiplexer) instead of double-binding that
profile's platforms. Inert unless all hold: this invocation is a named
profile, a default-profile gateway is alive, and its config has multiplexing
on. --force overrides. Wired into run_gateway's guard chain.
- write_runtime_status gains served_profiles: the secondary-adapter startup
records [active] + multiplexed profiles into runtime_status.json so
'hermes status' can show per-profile coverage without a second probe. Absent
for single-profile gateways.
Tests: served_profiles round-trips and is absent by default; guard is inert for
the default profile / under --force / when no default gateway is running.
