- New endpoints: POST /channels/google-chat/{username} and /webhook/nextcloud/{username}
- Channel secrets/config live in home/{username}/channels.json (gitignored)
- auth_utils: get_user_channels() helper reads channels.json
- Both routers load persona, audience/secret, backend, timeout per user;
set_context() wires the correct persona before building the system prompt
- Removed server-level channel settings from config.py and .env —
no user gets a channel until they create their own channels.json
- .gitignore: home/**/channels.json added
To migrate: update Google Chat Add-on webhook URL to /channels/google-chat/{username}
and re-register NC Talk bot at /webhook/nextcloud/{username}

All hardcoded "Inara"/"Scott" strings replaced with settings.agent_name
and settings.user_name, read from .env at startup:
- config.py: AGENT_NAME and USER_NAME settings (defaults: Inara / Scott)
- llm_client.py: conversation labels in prompt builder
- session_logger.py: **Name:** labels in session log markdown
- memory_distiller.py: distillation system prompts (mid + long)
- routers/nextcloud_talk.py: @mention prefix strip
- routers/google_chat.py: greeting message
Second instance scaffolding:
- holly/: identity directory with placeholder files (USER_NAME=Holly,
AGENT_NAME to be chosen by Holly)
- cortex/.env.holly: config for Holly's instance on port 8001
- cortex-holly.service: systemd unit for the second instance
No behavioural change to the Inara/Scott instance — defaults unchanged.

Cortex: FastAPI backend serving Inara via Claude/Gemini CLI backends.
Includes SSE streaming chat, session persistence, Google Chat webhook
handler, and Docker support.
Inara: Identity files (persona, soul, protocols, memory, context tiers)
mounted read-only into the container at runtime.
Features in initial cut:
- /chat endpoint with SSE keepalive + LLM fallback
- Session store with rolling history window
- Markdown rendering, copy-to-clipboard, links open in new tab
- Stacked right-column input controls (height selector, enter toggle,
note mode with public/private) — semi-hidden until textarea grows
- /note endpoint for injecting public context into session history
- Docker Compose config (local dev runs natively; Docker for server)
