Scott Idem 5cadb836fa feat: multi-persona support (single Cortex, multiple users)
- 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.

Scott: Can you give me an update for the news today. Thursday

Inara: Big day, Scott. Here's the Thursday rundown:


🌍 Iran-Israel War — The Dominant Story

This is the lead everywhere. A couple weeks into the conflict now, and it's escalating fast:

  • 2,200+ dead across the Middle East since the war began
  • Israel struck Iran's South Pars gas field — the world's largest — igniting massive fires at refining and petrochemical facilities
  • Iran's IRGC retaliated against Gulf energy infrastructure: Qatar's Ras Laffan LNG facility (~20% of global LNG exports), two Kuwait refineries, UAE oil fields, and a Saudi Aramco refinery
  • Netanyahu says Israel and the US are "protecting the entire world"
  • Oil hit $118/barrel — energy markets are rattled
  • The UN is trying to negotiate a humanitarian corridor for ~20,000 stranded seafarers in the Gulf

🇺🇸 US Domestic

  • Iran war funding: Senate Majority Leader Thune says Trump's $200B supplemental war spending request will need Democratic votes to clear a filibuster — things are going to get messy on the Hill
  • Student loans: Trump admin announced a three-phase plan to transfer most federal student loans and FAFSA management
  • FAA tightening rules around congested airspace near major airports, following last year's DC collision that killed 67
  • Utah verdict: Kouri Richins convicted of murdering her husband with fentanyl — insurance fraud motive
  • EEOC settlement: Planned Parenthood of Illinois pays $500K over DEI practices that violated federal civil rights law

Trade note: Indonesia agreed to buy $15B in US energy (oil/gas/coal), and got their tariff cut from 32% to 19% in return.

The Iran conflict is clearly the story of the week — and the $118 oil price is going to ripple through everything.
