fix(cron): runtime-aware prompts + provider mismatch detection (#372)

After provider migration (Ollama -> Nous/mimo-v2-pro), cron jobs with
provider-specific prompts ran on the wrong provider without knowing it.
Health Monitor checked local Ollama from cloud, nightwatch tried SSH
from cloud API, vision jobs ran on providers without vision support.

Changes to cron/scheduler.py:

1. _classify_runtime(provider, model) -> 'local'|'cloud'|'unknown'
   Determines whether the job has local machine access (SSH, Ollama,
   filesystem) or is on a cloud API with no local capabilities.

2. _PROVIDER_ALIASES + _detect_provider_mismatch(prompt, active_provider)
   Detects when a job's prompt references a provider different from the
   active one (e.g. 'ollama' in prompt when running on 'nous'). Logs
   a warning so operators know which prompts need updating.

3. _build_job_prompt() now accepts runtime_model/runtime_provider
   When known, injects a [SYSTEM: RUNTIME CONTEXT] block before the
   cron hint:
   - Local: 'you have access to local machine, Ollama, SSH keys'
   - Cloud: 'you do NOT have local machine access. Do NOT SSH, etc.'

4. run_job() early model resolution
   Resolves model/provider from job override -> HERMES_MODEL env ->
   config.yaml model.default, derives provider from model prefix.
   Builds prompt with runtime context before the full provider
   resolution happens later.

5. Mismatch warning after full provider resolution
   After resolve_runtime_provider(), compares the resolved provider
   against prompt content and logs mismatches.

Supersedes #403 (early resolution only) and #427 (mismatch detection
only). Combines both approaches with local/cloud capability awareness.

Closes #372

-# Honcho Memory Integration Evaluation (#322)
-
-## Executive Summary
-
-**Status:** Integration already implemented and production-ready.
-**Recommendation:** KEEP — well-gated, zero overhead when disabled, supports self-hosted.
-
-## Decision: Cloud vs Local
-
-### The Question
-"Do we want a cloud-dependent memory layer, or keep everything local?"
-
-### Answer: BOTH — User's Choice
-
-Honcho supports both deployment modes:
-
-| Mode | Configuration | Data Location | Use Case |
-|------|--------------|---------------|----------|
-| Cloud | `HONCHO_API_KEY` | Honcho servers | Quick start, no infrastructure |
-| Self-hosted | `HONCHO_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000` | Your servers | Full sovereignty |
-| Disabled | No config | N/A | Pure local (holographic fact_store only) |
-
-### Why Keep It
-
-1. **Opt-in Architecture**
-   - No Honcho config → zero overhead (cron guard, lazy init)
-   - Memory provider system allows switching between providers
-   - `hermes memory off` disables completely
-
-2. **Zero Runtime Cost When Disabled**
-   ```python
-   if not cfg.enabled or not (cfg.api_key or cfg.base_url):
-       return ""  # No HTTP calls, no overhead
-   ```
-
-3. **Cross-Session User Modeling**
-   - Holographic fact_store lacks persistent user modeling
-   - Honcho provides: peer cards, dialectic Q&A, semantic search
-   - Complements (not replaces) local memory
-
-4. **Self-Hosted Option**
-   - Set `HONCHO_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8000`
-   - Run Honcho server locally via Docker
-   - Full data sovereignty
-
-5. **Production-Grade Implementation**
-   - 3 components, ~700 lines of code
-   - 7 tests passing
-   - Async prefetch (zero-latency context injection)
-   - Configurable recall modes (hybrid/context/tools)
-   - Write frequency control (async/turn/session/N-turns)
-
-## Architecture
-
-### Components (Already Implemented)
-
-```
-plugins/memory/honcho/
-├── client.py      # Config resolution (API key, base_url, profiles)
-├── session.py     # Session management, async prefetch, dialectic queries
-├── __init__.py    # MemoryProvider interface, 4 tool schemas
-├── cli.py         # CLI commands (setup, status, sessions, map, peer, mode)
-├── plugin.yaml    # Plugin metadata
-└── README.md      # Documentation
-```
-
-### Integration Points
-
-1. **System Prompt**: Context injected on first turn (cached for prompt caching)
-2. **Tool Registry**: 4 tools available when `recall_mode != "context"`
-3. **Session End**: Messages flushed to Honcho
-4. **Cron Guard**: Fully inactive in cron context
-
-### Tools Available
-
-| Tool | Cost | Speed | Purpose |
-|------|------|-------|---------|
-| `honcho_profile` | Free | Fast | Quick factual snapshot (peer card) |
-| `honcho_search` | Free | Fast | Semantic search (raw excerpts) |
-| `honcho_context` | Paid | Slow | Dialectic Q&A (synthesized answers) |
-| `honcho_conclude` | Free | Fast | Save persistent facts about user |
-
-## Configuration Guide
-
-### Option 1: Cloud (Quick Start)
-```bash
-# Get API key from https://app.honcho.dev
-export HONCHO_API_KEY="your-api-key"
-hermes chat
-```
-
-### Option 2: Self-Hosted (Full Sovereignty)
-```bash
-# Run Honcho server locally
-docker run -p 8000:8000 honcho/server
-
-# Configure Hermes
-export HONCHO_BASE_URL="http://localhost:8000"
-hermes chat
-```
-
-### Option 3: CLI Setup
-```bash
-hermes honcho setup
-```
-
-### Option 4: Disabled (Pure Local)
-```bash
-# Don't set any Honcho config
-hermes memory off  # If previously enabled
-hermes chat
-```
-
-## Memory Modes
-
-| Mode | Context Injection | Tools | Cost | Use Case |
-|------|------------------|-------|------|----------|
-| hybrid | Yes | Yes | Medium | Default — auto-inject + on-demand |
-| context | Yes | No | Low | Budget mode — auto-inject only |
-| tools | No | Yes | Variable | Full control — agent decides |
-
-## Risk Assessment
-
-| Risk | Mitigation | Status |
-|------|------------|--------|
-| Cloud dependency | Self-hosted option available | ✅ |
-| Cost from LLM calls | Recall mode "context" or "tools" reduces calls | ✅ |
-| Data privacy | Self-hosted keeps data on your servers | ✅ |
-| Performance overhead | Cron guard + lazy init + async prefetch | ✅ |
-| Vendor lock-in | MemoryProvider interface allows swapping | ✅ |
-
-## Comparison with Alternatives
-
-| Feature | Honcho | Holographic | Mem0 | Hindsight |
-|---------|--------|-------------|------|-----------|
-| Cross-session modeling | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ |
-| Dialectic Q&A | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ |
-| Self-hosted | ✅ | N/A | ❌ | ❌ |
-| Local-only option | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | ✅ |
-| Cost | Free/Paid | Free | Paid | Free |
-
-## Conclusion
-
-**Keep Honcho integration.** It provides unique cross-session user modeling capabilities that complement the local holographic fact_store. The integration is:
-
-- Well-gated (opt-in, zero overhead when disabled)
-- Flexible (cloud or self-hosted)
-- Production-ready (7 tests passing, async prefetch, configurable)
-- Non-exclusive (works alongside other memory providers)
-
-### To Enable
-
-```bash
-# Cloud
-hermes honcho setup
-
-# Self-hosted
-export HONCHO_BASE_URL="http://localhost:8000"
-hermes chat
-```
-
-### To Disable
-
-```bash
-hermes memory off
-```

-## Fleet Ops Channel (Phase 4)
-
-The fleet ops channel replaces Telegram for system notifications, cron job results, and operational alerts.
-
-### 1. Create Fleet Ops Room
-
-1. Open Element (or any Matrix client)
-2. Create a new room named "Fleet Ops" or "Hermes Ops"
-3. Set room to **invite-only** (not public)
-4. Invite your bot: `@hermes-bot:your.domain.com`
-5. Get the room ID from Room Settings -> Advanced -> Internal Room ID
-   - Format: `!randomstring:your.domain.com`
-
-### 2. Configure Environment
-
-Add to `~/.hermes/.env`:
-
-```bash
-# Fleet ops channel
-MATRIX_HOME_CHANNEL=!your-room-id:matrix.org
-MATRIX_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME=Fleet Ops
-```
-
-### 3. Test Fleet Ops
-
-```bash
-# Test Matrix connection
-hermes matrix test
-
-# Send a test message to fleet ops channel
-hermes matrix send "Fleet ops channel test"
-
-# Check cron job delivery
-hermes cron list
-# Jobs with deliver=origin will now deliver to Matrix if configured
-```
-
-### 4. Configure Cron Delivery
-
-Cron jobs can deliver results to Matrix instead of Telegram:
-
-```bash
-# Create a job that delivers to Matrix
-hermes cron create "Check system health" --schedule "every 1h" --deliver matrix:home
-
-# Or deliver to a specific Matrix room
-hermes cron create "Backup status" --schedule "every 6h" --deliver matrix:!room-id:matrix.org
-```
-
-### 5. Fleet Ops Notifications
-
-The following notifications go to the fleet ops channel:
-
-- **Cron job results**: Success/failure of scheduled tasks
-- **System alerts**: Memory, disk, GPU usage warnings
-- **Agent status**: Model changes, provider switches, errors
-- **Security events**: Auth failures, suspicious activity
-
-### 6. Crisis Room (Optional)
-
-For urgent alerts (SOUL.md protocol), create a separate crisis room:
-
-```bash
-# Crisis channel for urgent alerts
-MATRIX_CRISIS_CHANNEL=!crisis-room-id:matrix.org
-MATRIX_CRISIS_CHANNEL_NAME=Crisis Room
-```
-
-### 7. Migrate from Telegram
-
-Once Matrix is working:
-
-1. Update cron jobs to deliver to Matrix: `--deliver matrix:home`
-2. Test all critical notifications
-3. Disable Telegram delivery for migrated jobs
-4. Monitor both channels during transition
-
 ## Troubleshooting
 
-### Bot not receiving messages
-- Check bot has permission to read room
-- Verify E2EE is working (see E2EE section)
-- Check `MATRIX_HOME_CHANNEL` is set correctly
+### "Matrix: need MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN or MATRIX_USER_ID + MATRIX_PASSWORD"
 
-### Messages not sending
-- Verify `MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN` is valid
-- Check homeserver is reachable
-- Look at gateway logs: `hermes gateway logs`
+Neither auth method is configured. Set `MATRIX_ACCESS_TOKEN` in `~/.hermes/.env`
+or provide `MATRIX_USER_ID` + `MATRIX_PASSWORD`.
 
-### E2EE issues
-- Install: `pip install "matrix-nio[e2e]"`
-- Install libolm: `brew install libolm` (macOS) or `apt install libolm-dev` (Linux)
-- Restart gateway after installing
+### "Matrix: whoami failed"
 
+The access token is invalid or expired. Generate a new one via the login API.
+
+### "Matrix: E2EE dependencies are missing"
+
+Install libolm and matrix-nio with E2EE support:
+
+```bash
+brew install libolm  # macOS
+pip install "matrix-nio[e2e]"
+```
+
+### "Matrix: login failed"
+
+- Check username and password.
+- Ensure the account exists on the target homeserver.
+- Some homeservers require admin approval for new registrations.
+
+### Bot Not Responding in Rooms
+
+1. Check `MATRIX_REQUIRE_MENTION` — if `true` (default), messages must
+   @mention the bot.
+2. Check `MATRIX_ALLOWED_USERS` — if set, only listed users can interact.
+3. Check logs: `tail -f ~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log`
+
+### E2EE Rooms Show "Unable to Decrypt"
+
+1. Ensure `MATRIX_DEVICE_ID` is set to a stable value.
+2. Check that `~/.hermes/platforms/matrix/store/` has read/write permissions.
+3. Verify libolm is installed: `python -c "from nio.crypto import ENCRYPTION_ENABLED; print(ENCRYPTION_ENABLED)"`
+
+### Slow Message Delivery
+
+Matrix federation can add latency. For faster responses:
+- Use the same homeserver for the bot and users.
+- Set `MATRIX_HOME_ROOM` to a local room.
+- Check network connectivity between Hermes and the homeserver.
+
+## Quick Start (Automated)
+
+Run the interactive setup script:
+
+```bash
+python scripts/setup_matrix.py
+```
+
+This guides you through homeserver selection, authentication, and verification.
