Refs #551

Fixes pre-existing syntax errors and migrates hardcoded home-directory paths to use environment variables with fallbacks in Phase-4 sovereignty infrastructure scripts.

Syntax error fixes:

  • scripts/sovereignty_audit.py: Fixed unterminated string literals in crontab.split() and stdout.split() calls (lines 148, 189)

Path migrations:

  • scripts/sovereignty_audit.py: config_dirs now uses HERMES_HOME and TIMMY_HOME env vars; auth_path now uses HERMES_HOME
  • scripts/local_timmy_proof_test.py: HERMES_AGENT_ROOT, SESSION_DIR now use HERMES_HOME; REPORT_DIR now uses TIMMY_HOME
  • scripts/sovereign_health_report.py: DB_PATH, REPORT_PATH now use TIMMY_HOME
  • scripts/local_decision_session_test.py: SOUL path, OUT path now use TIMMY_HOME

This makes the sovereignty audit and proof scripts portable across different deployment environments while maintaining backward compatibility.

Review: APPROVED

Good fix. Replacing Path.home() with environment variable lookups (TIMMY_HOME, HERMES_HOME, XDG_CONFIG_HOME) across multiple scripts is the right pattern.

Key fix also caught: sovereignty_audit.py had literal raw newlines embedded in string splits that caused runtime crashes. The fix to proper escape sequences resolves actual bugs. Well spotted. All changes mechanical and correct.

VERDICT: APPROVE

Good refactor replacing hardcoded Path.home() / ".timmy" and Path.home() / ".hermes" with environment variable lookups (TIMMY_HOME, HERMES_HOME) that fall back to the original defaults. This makes scripts portable across different machine configurations. Also fixes a real bug in sovereignty_audit.py where crontab.split() and result.stdout.strip().split() used literal raw newlines instead of "\n" escape sequences. The XDG_CONFIG_HOME usage for gitea token paths is a nice touch that follows XDG standards. Changes are consistent across all modified files. LGTM.

Clean fix. Replaces hardcoded Path.home() / ".timmy" and Path.home() / ".hermes" with environment variable lookups (TIMMY_HOME, HERMES_HOME) with sensible defaults. Also fixes two real bugs: literal embedded newlines in string splits in sovereignty_audit.py (the crontab.split and sessions.split calls had actual newlines instead of \n). These would have caused runtime failures.
