no-mistakes(document): Sync zulip-health v3.1.0 in registry and fix Koby IP to .129

- Add Koonimo (CT 113, .114) and Koby (CT 111) to Platform B monitoring
- Add Infisical dependency check (/usr/local/bin/infisical presence)
- Add config YAML validation (yaml.safe_load check)
- Add stale PID/lock detection and cleanup before restart
- Add LiteLLM key injection verification (no-key-required pattern)
- Add Telegram adapter health check
- Add cli_agent_setup_mixin.py patch verification
- Update restart commands with Infisical-missing fallback path
- Update requires/maintains schema with new fields
- Use pct exec from amdpve as primary access for Koonimo/Koby
- Verified correct IPs: Koonimo=.114 (not .113), Koby=pct exec only

+**B4.5: LiteLLM Key Injection Verification**

+cli_agent_setup_mixin.py patch is missing):
+
+```bash
+ssh root@<CT> "grep -c 'no-key-required' /root/.hermes/logs/gateway.log 2>/dev/null || echo 0"

+```
+
+If > 0 → flag `no_key_required_count: <count>`, note as degraded — provider
+requests silently fall back to `no-key-required` when LITELLM_API_KEY env var
+resolves empty.
+
+**B5: Telegram Adapter Health**
+
+Check Telegram connectivity in gateway state or logs:
+
+```bash
+# From gateway_state.json (all agents):
+ssh root@<CT> "cat ~/.hermes/gateway_state.json | python3 -c 'import json,sys;d=json.load(sys.stdin);print(d[\"platforms\"].get(\"telegram\",{}).get(\"state\",\"missing\"))'"
+# pct exec variant for Koonimo/Koby (cat the file; read platforms.telegram.state):

+# From logs (check for stuck DNS resolution):

+ssh root@192.168.68.15 "pct exec 111 -- grep -E 'Telegram.*Connecting|Telegram.*Connected|attempt 1/8' /root/.hermes/logs/gateway.log | tail -5"
+```
+
+Telegram states: `connected` ✅ | `disconnected` ❌ | `retrying` ⚠️ | `fatal` ❌ | `paused` ⚠️
+
+If stuck on "attempt 1/8" for > 60s → flag Telegram as degraded (Zulip may
+still be fine — do NOT treat as Zulip outage).
+
+**B6: cli_agent_setup_mixin.py Patch Verification**
+
+Check whether the `no-key-required` fallback string exists without the
+LiteLLM-specific guard (only needed when LiteLLM key injection failures are
+suspected). A bare count of the fallback string cannot distinguish a guarded
+occurrence from an unguarded one, so count both the fallback string and the
+LiteLLM guard token:
+
+```bash
+ssh root@<CT> "f=\$(grep -c 'no-key-required' /usr/local/lib/hermes-agent/hermes_cli/cli_agent_setup_mixin.py 2>/dev/null || echo 0); g=\$(grep -c 'LITELLM_API_KEY' /usr/local/lib/hermes-agent/hermes_cli/cli_agent_setup_mixin.py 2>/dev/null || echo 0); echo fallback=\$f guard=\$g"

+```
+
+If `fallback > 0` and `guard == 0` → the fallback string is present without
+the LiteLLM-specific guard, so the patch is missing. If unsure, inspect each
+occurrence with `grep -n -B2 -A2 'no-key-required'` to confirm the guard
+wraps it.
+

+
+**Restart Commands**
+
+Standard restart (Infisical present):
+```bash
+ssh root@<CT> "pkill -f 'gateway run'; sleep 2; hermes gateway restart"
+# pct exec variant:
+ssh root@192.168.68.15 "pct exec 113 -- bash -c 'pkill -f \"gateway run\"; sleep 2; systemctl restart hermes-gateway'"
+ssh root@192.168.68.15 "pct exec 111 -- bash -c 'pkill -f \"gateway run\"; sleep 2; systemctl restart hermes-gateway'"
+```
+
+The mechanisms differ by design: Tanko/Mumuni launch the gateway through a
+wrapper loop, so the `hermes gateway restart` CLI is the correct entry point
+(it re-arms the wrapper). Koonimo/Koby run the gateway as a systemd unit
+(`hermes-gateway.service`), so `systemctl restart hermes-gateway` is the
+correct entry point under `pct exec`. Do not swap the two — using the CLI on
+Koonimo/Koby would bypass the unit, and using `systemctl` on Tanko/Mumuni
+would miss the wrapper loop.
+
+Fallback: Infisical missing → start gateway directly from venv with env vars:
+```bash
+ssh root@<CT> "source /usr/local/lib/hermes-agent/venv/bin/activate && \

 ### Gen 5 (2026-07-02) — Rate Limit Death Spiral Fix
 
 **Root Cause**: Proactive Queue Rotation at 25 min triggered queue re-registration every cycle. Each re-registration + retry loop (3 attempts) + monitor restart = 8-12 API calls per cycle. Combined with monitor's own API calls (server check, stream alerts), `abiba-bot` hit Zulip's rate limit (429 RATE_LIMIT_HIT). Each restart reset the cycle, creating a death spiral: 111 restarts in 24 hours.

+| **Mumuni** | Hermes (CT 114) | ✅ Connected | No issues found | None needed |
+
+### Key Fixes Applied
+
+**1. Abiba — Credential Fallback (L4 Pattern)**
+- Root cause: `zulip.api_key` in config.yaml is `""` (expected from Infisical). Infisical vault `ABIBA_ZULIP_API_KEY` wasn't being injected into the process environment.
+- Fix: Added `.env` file fallback at `/root/.pi/agent/extensions/zulip/.env` with known-working key, sourced before the Infisical `exec`.
+- Lesson: Per L4 from gpu-self-heal, Infisical is not always available — always keep a local `.env` fallback.
+
+**2. Abiba — Poll Timeout Handling**
+- Root cause: Zulip long-poll uses `AbortSignal.timeout(65000)`. Zulip's default `event_queue_longpoll_timeout_seconds` can exceed 65s. When the signal fires, an `AbortError` is thrown and caught by the circuit breaker as a failure.
+- Fix: Caught `AbortError` inside `poll()` and return empty array (no events) instead of throwing. Extended timeout to 90s to match Zulip server default.
+- Reference: [Zulip Events System — long-poll timeout](https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/11.6/subsystems/events-system.html)
+
+**3. Tanko — Gateway Restart**
+- Root cause: Gateway process was running but Zulip platform stayed in "disconnected" state since Jul 11, 2026. The wrapper script (`infisical-gateway.sh`) restarts on crash but the gateway wasn't re-establishing Zulip on restart.
+- Fix: Killed gateway PID to trigger wrapper restart. New gateway (PID 331991) established Zulip connection successfully.

+### Fleet-Wide Zulip Health Metrics (as of 2026-07-18)
+
+| Metric | Value |
+|--------|-------|
+| Zulip server | ✅ HTTP 200 |
+| Agents connected | 3/3 (Abiba, Tanko, Mumuni) |
+| Abiba circuit breaker | CLOSED (0 failures) |
+| Abiba uptime | 2D (post-restart) |
+| Tanko gateway uptime | Ongoing |
+| Mumuni gateway uptime | Ongoing |
+| Watchdog status | ✅ Online (2D uptime) |
+
+### Hermes Agent Zulip Plugin Improvements
+
+Based on the audit, improvements that should be ported to all Hermes Zulip adapters:
+
+1. **Circuit breaker pattern** — Already in Abiba's pi extension. Hermes adapters should add the same CLOSED→OPEN→HALF_OPEN state machine with exponential backoff.
+2. **Credential fallback** — All Hermes agents use Infisical for credentials. Add `.env` local fallback per L4 pattern for `ZULIP_API_KEY`.
+3. **Queue re-registration** — Handle `BAD_EVENT_QUEUE_ID` with automatic re-registration instead of gateway restart.
+4. **Supervisor watchdog** — Hermes uses PM2 which auto-restarts on crash, but has no health-check watchdog. Add lightweight external health checks.
+5. **Streaming** — All agents have `streaming: true` in their zulip config. Verify `edit_message()` is implemented in each adapter.
