no-mistakes(document): Document llmuser SSH user for .8 GPU health probe

The rebuilt VM 101 (192.168.68.8) kept only one SSH key in root's
authorized_keys, so the health check's root probe returns Permission
denied and misreports the healthy host as UNREACHABLE. The llama-server
runs as llmuser, so that user can see the :8080 pid via ss -tlnp.

Add per-host user to GPU_HOSTS (default root, llmuser for .8) and pass
it through check_gpu_ports() into all ssh() calls.

Closes the gpu-unreachable:192.168.68.8 leg while leaving the root SSH
security decision for the captain.

-## Email-delivery dependency
+## Delivery: Zulip DM carrying the report as an HTML ATTACHMENT
 
-Delivery is a **credential dependency, not a code path**. The producer
-authenticates to `smtp.gmail.com:587` as `jtabiri@gmail.com` with
-`EMAIL_PASSWORD` from the vault and sends to `jerome@sysloggh.com`.
+Captain's decision 2026-09-26, clarified the same day: the digest is delivered to
+his **Zulip DM (user id 9)** from `abiba-bot@chat.sysloggh.net`, as an **HTML
+FILE** — an attachment, not HTML rendered in the message body and not a Markdown
+translation of it.
 
-* Since that Google account has two-step verification, `EMAIL_PASSWORD` must be
-  a Google **app password**, not the account password.
-* As of 2026-09-25 delivery is **failing** with
-  `534 5.7.9 Application-specific password required`; the fix is for the
-  captain to generate a fresh app password and place it in Infisical
-  (`infrastructure/production`) as `EMAIL_PASSWORD`.
-* **A delivery failure is not a code defect.** Investigation of a failed send
-  should start at the credential, not the script. Chasing it as a code bug
-  wastes the effort; verify the credential path first with `--test-email`.
-* Tracked separately as `daily-digest-mail-transport-20260921`.
+* the styled dashboard is built exactly as before and written to
+  `/var/log/daily-infra-report/infra-report-<UTCstamp>.html`;
+* it is uploaded through `POST /api/v1/user_uploads`;
+* the **message body stays short Markdown** — subject line, top-line status
+  (nodes online, guests running, any degraded legs), and a link to the
+  attachment. The attachment IS the report; the body does not reproduce it.
+
+This removes the Google dependency entirely: **no SMTP, no `EMAIL_PASSWORD`, no
+app password, nothing to rotate.** `daily-digest-mail-transport-20260921` is
+closed under this option.
+
+The **10,000-character message cap does not apply** — it bounds message TEXT
+only, and the report travels as a file. Do not shrink the report to fit it.
+
+The credential is abiba-bot's Zulip key already on the execution host at
+`/root/.pi/agent/extensions/zulip/.env` (`ABIBA_ZULIP_API_KEY`, mode 600,
+root-readable). **Do not place a new credential in the vault** — under the
+auth-keys charter that is a captain decision.
 
 ## What counts as a failure
 
@@ -153,10 +161,18 @@ A run FAILS (exit 1) when the report cannot be trusted or delivered:
 
 * any probe is unreachable, so a section would silently be empty;
 * `PVE_TOKEN` is missing;
-* the email send fails.
+* the Zulip credential is missing or rejected, or the upload/post fails.
 
-A run is DEGRADED (exit 0, report still produced) when a non-load-bearing
-credential is absent, currently only `EMAIL_PASSWORD`.
+There is **no degraded delivery leg any more**. Delivery is the only output
+path, so a missing credential is a failure rather than a survivable degradation —
+the previous "missing `EMAIL_PASSWORD` still exits 0" rule is retired with the
+mail transport.

 ## Purpose
 Auto-fix low-hanging fruit in the graph. No judgment calls — only deterministic Level 1 operations. Escalate anything that needs Kwame's input. When Kwame replies to an escalation, **execute the decision to completion** (update state and timestamps), never leaving a node in review-pending forever.

 **Archive candidates are identified by the fix 3 query's `suggested_action = 'archive'` branch** (the `ELSE 'archive'` case: anything not an infrastructure/skill/documentation/strategic/audit type).
 
+### 5. Duplicate-Node Detection (Level 1 — read-only, every run)
+
+The graph's duplicate problem is rarely an agent mistyping a title: it is **recurring writers creating a new
+node per run instead of updating one**. This phase detects that class and reports it. It is read-only and
+**never merges**.
+
+```bash
+python3 /home/hermes/.hermes/scripts/memory_dup_detect.py --json
+```
+Read-only, ~15s over the whole graph, exit 0. That script is the source of truth for the clustering logic —
+do not re-implement it in the prompt or hand-count "duplicates" from titles.
+
+Consume each `items[]` entry's `verdict` field; do not invent your own:
+
+| `verdict` | Meaning | Required action |
+|---|---|---|
+| `WRITER-DEFECT` (`run_family: true`) | ONE scheduled task writes a new node per run | Report the ids, the `agents` (the writer) and `span_days`. **Never merge** — each node is that run's audit record. If the family grew since the last report, say `UNFIXED` and name the writer. |
+| `SAFE-MERGE` | Bodies identical | Still requires an explicit `merge #A into #B` decision from Kwame. |
+| `HUMAN-DECISION` | Same subject, bodies differ | Propose **connect (an edge)**, never merge. |
+
+- **Title overlap alone is not duplication.** Four distinct client workflows of one family (#357-#361) and two
+  different machines' migrations (#1792/#1793) both score high on title tokens while their bodies sit 0.1-0.3
+  apart. Confirm against body similarity before calling anything a duplicate.
+- Report clusters as **candidates for Kwame's decision**, never as established duplicates — a wrong auto-merge
+  destroys distinct content irrecoverably.
+- Per-run history nodes are kept deliberately. Bulk-merging a run family destroys the audit trail the family exists for.
+
 ## Level 2 Escalations (Kwame Decision Required)
 
 1. **Refresh-suggested stale nodes** flagged with `[REVIEW: refresh]` — refresh or keep? (Archive-suggested nodes are auto-archived under fix 4 and are not escalated.)
-2. **Duplicate Nodes** (same title or >70% title overlap) — Merge or keep?
+2. **Duplicate Nodes** — as detected by fix 5, by `verdict`, never by raw title overlap. `WRITER-DEFECT` is a writer fix (update one canonical node), not a merge decision; `SAFE-MERGE` and `HUMAN-DECISION` clusters are escalated for merge-or-connect.
 3. **Orphan Nodes >90 days old** — Archive or connect?
 
 ## Reporting Format
 
-The fixer reports to Kwame via this Zulip DM:
+The fixer does **not** send anything. Under the single-egress model (2026-09-21) every report leaves the node
+through Mumuni's gate (`comms_drop.py` for the queue, `comms_gate.py` to release and read-back verify), so
+exit 0 means QUEUED, never delivered. A report body is written to a file and handed to the outbox helper:

+"""Regression test for the fallback_providers list-shape crash in audit-hermes-config.py.
+
+WHY THIS FILE EXISTS: audit-hermes-config.py assumed `fallback_providers` was always a dict
+(single provider). Two live agents (koby, koonimo) carry it as a LIST of dicts (one entry per
+fallback), so the script crashed with:
+
+    File "audit-hermes-config.py", line 211, in audit
+        fb.get("provider") == "deepseek",
+    AttributeError: 'list' object has no attribute 'get'
+
+Both are REAL agent configs, so this is not a malformed-input case — the script simply could not
+audit two of the four agents it exists to audit. Until fixed, the key-hygiene check had no
+coverage for half the fleet while appearing to run.
+
+These tests execute the real CLI (`python3 audit-hermes-config.py <config>`) and assert:
+1. A config whose `fallback_providers` is a LIST of valid dicts does NOT crash (exit code is 0 or 1,
+   never a traceback/AttributeError).
+2. A config whose `fallback_providers` contains a MALFORMED entry (a list element that is not a
+   mapping) reports a VIOLATION naming the offending entry, NOT an uncaught exception.
+3. The dict shape still works (existing tests must stay green).
+
+No network, vault, or SSH access is required.
