Scope

Detect and safely terminate duplicate wizard gateway processes when multiple PIDs are bound to overlapping ports.

Acceptance Criteria

Scan localhost ports 8640-8650 for bound hermes gateway processes
Read official gateway.pid files for each wizard house
Identify PIDs not matching the canonical pidfile
Gracefully terminate orphans with SIGTERM, fallback SIGKILL
Log action to /root/wizards/ezra/reports/fleet-cleanup-YYYYMMDD.log
Wire into awareness_loop.py as automated remediation (opt-in)

Why

Currently a stray Ezra gateway occupies port 8640 while the canonical gateway runs on 8648. Manual cleanup is reactive.

Completed

Built tools/fleet_cleanup.py
Scans ports 8640-8658 for bound hermes gateway processes
Reads canonical gateway.pid files for ezra, bezalel, allegro-primus
Identifies orphan PIDs (SIGTERM -> SIGKILL fallback)
Logs actions to /root/wizards/ezra/reports/fleet-cleanup-YYYYMMDD.log
Wired into awareness_loop.py as auto-remediation on duplicate-gateway detection

Live result: terminated orphan PID 901501 on ports 8640/8650.

Update: Bilbo discovered

During validation, the cleanup script initially flagged PID 932554 on ports 8640/8650 as an orphan. Root cause: Bilbo was not in the fleet config. Bilbo's gateway is canonical (systemd hermes-bilbo.service) and his gateway.pid is valid.

Fixed fleet_cleanup.py and awareness_loop.py to include Bilbo in FLEET config
Orphan detection now scans all PIDs in port range 8640-8658 against ALL canonical pidfiles
Fleet verified clean: 0 orphans
