When the Desktop has a bot's "Bot Chat" open, that session holds the
single-owner lease, so the `hermes -p <bot> chat -c "Bot Chat"` subprocess
`bot_relay.deliver` spawns refuses with "already has a live owner" and the
DM payload is dropped — the sender was already acked.
bot_relay.deliver now looks up a live in-process session for the target
profile whose title resolves to "Bot Chat" (same profile_home match as
session.resume's _find_live_unpersisted, pending_title for lazy sessions,
otherwise the db title) and, when found, submits the message through the
existing prompt.submit handler — the composer's choke point — so it lands
as a normal user turn (role alternation preserved, streams to the open
window). No live owner → the subprocess path runs exactly as before.
On the local message_agent subprocess path, the lease refusal is surfaced
as a structured `target_busy` delivery failure telling the sender the
message was NOT delivered, instead of a raw exit-1 with the text buried
in stderr.

Salvage hardening on top of #93601 (with #93597 covering the same core
mechanisms) for #93590:
- _hermes_cli(): after the venv-sibling check (hermes.exe on win32),
try shutil.which('hermes') before the bare-name fallback, so
environments with a PATH but no venv sibling resolve exactly what an
interactive shell would. Platform test switched os.name -> sys.platform
('win32') per repo convention.
- tui_gateway/methods_bot_relay.py deliver: pin encoding='utf-8',
errors='replace' on both subprocess.run sites — without them the
child's UTF-8 output is decoded with the locale codec (cp1252/GBK on
Windows), mangling non-ASCII replies or raising on undecodable bytes.
- Regression tests: shutil.which resolution step, bare-name fallback
with which=None, and encoding-pin assertions in the deliver transport
test.

CI runners have a real hermes sibling next to the venv python, so
local_delivery_command now resolves an absolute path there — the exact
argv filters in the retry-policy fakes and the relay-methods pins must
match by basename instead of the literal "hermes", mirroring the
_delivery_lock matcher.
Widen the DM tempfile-leak fix (#91902/#92407) to the sibling sites
PR #92784 introduced:
- tools/bot_relay.py: expose the 6h stale sweep as
cleanup_bot_relay_artifacts() (cleanup_*_cache contract) and wire it
into gateway housekeeping — previously it ran only when the Desktop
drained the outbox, so plaintext envelopes/replies queued while the
Desktop was away could sit on disk forever.
- tui_gateway/methods_bot_relay.py: move the payload write inside the
try/finally so a failed write no longer leaks hermes-relay-dm-*.txt.
- tools/bot_mode_dm.py: _spawn_delivery takes dm_file=None for relay
waiter deliveries, which have no plaintext DM tempfile to reclaim.
Connections ARE the peer set: every gateway connected to the Desktop
(local, remote URL, SSH, Hermes Cloud, docker) is now message_agent-
reachable. The Desktop relays over the persistent sockets it already
holds — roster sync per connection, envelope drain/deliver/reply loops —
so cross-connection DMs work exactly like local ones, replies included.
Also fixes the legacy-SOUL gate bug: profiles whose SOUL.md carries the
old plugin-appended protocol silently lost the message_agent tool
because the injection/execution gates keyed on protocol-section
non-emptiness instead of managed-install.
