Scoped credential locks (Telegram bot token, Discord bot token, etc.) are
machine-global, but the conflict error only reported the holder's PID:
Telegram bot token already in use (PID 559). Stop the other gateway first.
On multi-profile hosts (e.g. hosted instances running 13 profiles), a bare
PID gives the operator no way to tell WHICH profile owns the credential —
the exact failure mode observed on zerocool-9781, where the 'default'
profile was misconfigured with the same bot token as 'lead-gen-outreach'
and logged an unattributable conflict every ~5 minutes (4,602 rows).
Fix:
- acquire_scoped_lock() now stamps a 'profile' label on lock records,
inferred from the process HERMES_HOME (<root>/profiles/<name> layouts,
'default' for the root home). Omitted when not inferable.
- New scoped_lock_owner_label() resolves the owning profile from a lock
record: prefers the explicit field, falls back to inferring from the
persisted hermes_home for locks written before the field existed.
Labels are validated against the profile-id grammar before use (lock
files are plain JSON on disk and the label flows into log lines and a
suggested CLI command).
- _acquire_platform_lock() conflict message now names the owning profile
and gives the correct remedy:
Telegram bot token already in use by the 'lead-gen-outreach' profile
gateway (PID 559). Stop that gateway first
(hermes --profile lead-gen-outreach gateway stop).
Records with no attribution signal keep the original PID-only wording.
Testing:
- New TestScopedLockOwnerLabel suite covering label inference (named,
Docker, root/default, unknown layouts), grammar validation, explicit-
field preference, hermes_home fallback, and legacy/malformed records.
- acquire_scoped_lock tests for profile stamping and omission.
- Adapter-level tests for profile-attributed, legacy-home-inferred, and
PID-only conflict messages.
- 76/76 targeted gateway tests pass; broad gateway suite failures are
baseline-identical (verified via git stash comparison). Ruff clean.
