- Add cortex/persona.py: ContextVar-based per-request routing with path traversal protection and persona validation - Migrate inara/ → personas/inara/ (git history preserved via git mv) - config.py: add personas_root(), inara_path() delegates to personas/inara - All 14 settings.inara_path() call sites replaced with persona_path() - ChatRequest + OrchestrateRequest: add persona field (default: "inara") with validation at request entry before any processing - memory_distiller: add optional persona param for future per-persona distill - cron_runner/tools/cron: stamp persona on jobs, prefix APScheduler IDs (persona:job_id) to prevent collisions across personas - scheduler: _load_user_crons() iterates all personas at startup Adding a new persona: create personas/<name>/ with IDENTITY.md + SOUL.md. Auth: handled at nginx level (inject X-Cortex-Persona header per subdomain). Future: persona maps to Aether account_id_random for full integration.
