M0: toolchain, monorepo scaffold, gateway plugin skeleton, CMP app

- gateway-plugin/: android platform plugin (plugin.yaml + adapter.py
  register(ctx) + no-op AndroidAdapter) + stub modules for M1-M5
- app/: Compose Multiplatform project (shared KMP + androidApp +
  desktopApp) with Gradle wrapper; builds :androidApp:assembleDebug
  and :desktopApp:compileKotlin
- scripts/guard_hermes_agent.sh + pre-commit hook: fail if hermes-agent/
  is staged (read-only reference, never committed)
- .gitignore excludes hermes-agent/; docs/ reference library

# 09 — Pairing, Auth & Security
## 9.1 Threat model
- **Trusted domain:** a personal agent on the user's own machine; one owner, a
few of their own devices (phone + desktop).
- **Primary risks:** (a) an unauthorized device connecting to the WS and
reading/driving the agent; (b) eavesdropping on the WS in transit; (c) token
leakage in logs; (d) arbitrary file read via media pull.
- **Not addressing (v1):** multi-tenant isolation, adversarial multi-user abuse,
E2E encryption.
## 9.2 Pairing flow
1. **Generate a token.** `hermes gateway setup` (our `interactive_setup`) either
uses an existing `ANDROID_TOKEN` or generates a fresh high-entropy token
(e.g. 32 bytes → 64 hex chars) and stores it in `.env`.
2. **Present to the app.** Two options:
- **QR code:** the setup prints a QR encoding
`iris://pair?host=<lan-ip>&port=8790&token=<token>` (or a WSS URL). The
phone scans it with the app's camera (or a system scanner) → pre-fills
settings.
- **Manual:** user types the server URL + token in the app's Connect screen.
3. **App connects.** First WS frame is `hello {token, device_id, device_name,
caps, fcm_token?}`.
4. **Server verifies.** Constant-time compare of `token` vs `ANDROID_TOKEN`
(`hmac.compare_digest`). Optionally check `device_id` against
`ANDROID_ALLOWED_USERS` (if set) or `ANDROID_ALLOW_ALL_USERS`.
5. **On success:** register the device in `devices.db`, send `hello.ack`.
**On failure:** send `error {code:"auth"}` and close.
`device_id` is a stable, app-generated UUID (persisted in the app's
secure storage). It identifies the device for routing + push, **not** as a
security principal (the token is).
## 9.3 Auth model
- **Token = the security principal.** Any connection presenting the valid
`ANDROID_TOKEN` is authorized (it's the user's own token).
- **Allowlist (optional):** `ANDROID_ALLOWED_USERS` (comma-separated
`device_id`s) restricts which *devices* may connect even with the token —
useful if the token is shared. `ANDROID_ALLOW_ALL_USERS=true` disables the
allowlist (dev only).
- **Per-device tokens (stretch):** mint a unique token per device at pairing
(revocable) instead of one shared token. v1 uses the shared token + optional
device allowlist.
- **Re-pairing:** rotating `ANDROID_TOKEN` invalidates all devices; they must
re-pair. `hermes android pair` (stretch CLI) re-issues + prints a new QR.
## 9.4 Transport security
- **Default (LAN/dev):** plain `ws://` on the trusted LAN. Fine for a home
network.
- **WSS (recommended for remote):** set `ANDROID_WS_CERT` / `ANDROID_WS_KEY`
(self-signed or CA-signed). The app pins/accepts the cert (self-signed → user
confirms fingerprint on first pair, like a SSH host key).
- **Remote reachability options** (documented, user's choice):
- **Tailscale / WireGuard** (recommended): gateway gets a stable tailnet IP;
app connects over the private mesh. No public exposure.
- **Reverse proxy / tunnel** (Caddy, Cloudflare Tunnel, ngrok): terminate TLS
at the edge, forward WS to `127.0.0.1:8790`.
- **Public bind** (`0.0.0.0`) + WSS + strong token — last resort.
- The app stores the server URL + (for self-signed) the pinned cert fingerprint
in secure storage.
## 9.5 Secret & PII handling
- **Tokens/keys never logged.** Redact `ANDROID_TOKEN`, FCM tokens/keys, ntfy
tokens in all log output (hermes PII policy; `agent/redact.py` patterns).
- **`device_id`** is a random UUID (not PII). `device_name` is user-chosen.
- **Media pull** is gated by hermes `validate_media_delivery_path` + delivery
root/recency/denied-path checks (`gateway/platforms/base.py:1684`) — the
plugin can only serve files hermes is allowed to deliver (no arbitrary file
read).
- **Search** is local-only (user's own hermes home); no data leaves the machine.
## 9.6 Profile safety
- All plugin state lives under `get_hermes_home()/"android"` (profile-aware).
- Secrets are read with the scope-aware `_get_scoped_secret` pattern (see
`plugins/platforms/irc/adapter.py:42`) so multiplexed profiles don't leak
each other's tokens (fail-closed under `gateway.multiplex_profiles`).
- The WS bind uses a scoped lock (`gateway.status.acquire_scoped_lock`) so two
profiles can't bind the same port/identity.
## 9.7 Hardening checklist
- [ ] Constant-time token compare.
- [ ] Bounded per-connection send buffer + rate limit on inbound frames.
- [ ] Reject oversized frames / uploads (`max_upload_bytes`).
- [ ] Verify media sha256 + re-sniff MIME (don't trust client).
- [ ] Redact all secrets in logs.
- [ ] WSS + cert pinning for remote.
- [ ] Outbox retention cap + prune.
- [ ] Fail-closed secret reads under multiplexing.
