tools/checkpoint_manager.py's CHECKPOINT_BASE and gateway/sticker_cache.py's
CACHE_PATH are resolved once at import time via get_hermes_home(), which is
a context-local ContextVar under the multiplexed gateway (multiple profiles
sharing one process). Freezing the path at import time pins every later
checkpoint/cache read-write to whichever profile's HERMES_HOME was active
when the module was first imported -- the same bug class already fixed for
cache dirs, skills_hub, rich_sent_store, and (this session) the OAuth/auth.json/
sessions.json paths.
CheckpointManager is "owned by AIAgent" per-instance, but its methods read
the frozen module constant directly instead of taking the store root from
the instance, so a profile's CheckpointManager can read/write code-edit
checkpoints into a different profile's store.
Add a per-call resolver for each path, following the established "respect
an existing test monkeypatch of the constant, otherwise re-resolve through
get_hermes_home()" pattern so the extensive existing test seams in
tests/tools/test_checkpoint_manager.py and tests/gateway/test_sticker_cache.py
keep working unmodified.

The Sep 2026 decomposition (PR #102117) makes internal import paths a non-API: names now live in
the focused modules that define them. This commit is the ONLY thing keeping the old paths alive,
so external plugins have time to update. It is deliberately a single, unsquashed commit:
git revert <this sha>
removes every shim, stub and manifest at once on the announced date. Nothing in-tree may depend on
these pointers: scripts/check_compat_pointers.py (wired into lint.yml) fails CI if it does.
What it adds (see COMPAT_MANIFEST.md, compat_manifest.json):
- 332 facade modules get one delimited `PLUGIN-COMPAT` block appended at the end of the file
- 1,172 moved names resolved lazily via a module `__getattr__` (PEP 562) — never a top-level import,
so no import cycles; facades that already had `__getattr__` get a chained one
- 592 third-party/stdlib names the old modules used to expose, with their original import statements
- 266 public definitions that had been deleted as unused, restored byte-for-byte from the pre-decomposition
tree (+40 private helpers and 16 imports pulled in only because a restored definition needs them)
- 3 deleted modules recreated as re-export stubs (gateway/startup_watchdog, hermes_cli/observability/
relay_runtime, tools/environments/modal_utils)
- private names (`_x`) get no pointer: they were never API (3,792 skipped)
Verified: all 335 touched modules import under a fresh HERMES_HOME and every manifest name resolves;
the lint reports zero in-tree uses; ruff clean; targeted suites unchanged.
1. trajectory_compressor.py: yaml.safe_load() returns None on empty
files, crashing with TypeError on `if 'tokenizer' in data`. Fix by
adding `or {}` fallback. (HIGH — blocks startup with empty config)
2. 6 files with fcntl.flock(LOCK_UN) in finally blocks without
try/except: cron/scheduler.py, hermes_cli/auth.py,
agent/shell_hooks.py, tools/skill_usage.py,
tools/environments/file_sync.py, tools/memory_tool.py. If unlock
raises OSError, fd.close() is skipped and the lock is held forever.
The msvcrt branches already had try/except; the fcntl branches did
not. Fix by wrapping in try/except (OSError, IOError): pass.
3. agent/copilot_acp_client.py line 639: TOCTOU race — path.exists()
followed by path.read_text() with no try/except. If file is deleted
between the check and the read, FileNotFoundError propagates. Fix
by using try/except FileNotFoundError.
4. gateway/sticker_cache.py: non-atomic write via Path.write_text()
can leave truncated JSON on crash, causing JSONDecodeError on next
load. Fix by writing to tempfile + fsync + os.replace (atomic).
