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.

CONTEXT_TIERS.md — Cortex Dispatcher Loading Spec

This file defines which Inara context files to inject into a session based on the target model's context window. The dispatcher reads this to decide what to prepend.


Tier 1 — Minimal (~1,500 tokens)

Target: Local models with ~8k context or less (Qwen 8B small, etc.)

Load:

  • SOUL.md
  • IDENTITY.md
  • USER.md — first 30 lines only (identity + what he cares about)

Notes: Just enough for Inara to know who she is and who Scott is.


Tier 2 — Standard (~5,000 tokens)

Target: Models with 16k32k context (Haiku, Gemini Flash, Qwen 8B full)

Load:

  • SOUL.md
  • IDENTITY.md
  • USER.md — full
  • MEMORY.md
  • PROTOCOLS.md

Notes: Full operational context. Sufficient for most routine tasks and conversations.


Tier 3 — Extended (~15,000 tokens)

Target: Models with 32k128k context (Sonnet, Gemini Pro, Qwen 14B, Qwen 30B)

Load:

  • Everything in Tier 2
  • ~/agents_sync/aether/docs/FLEET_MANIFEST.md
  • Most recent 2 session files from sessions/
  • Relevant project doc (e.g., CORTEX.md) if task is project-related

Tier 4 — Full (50,000+ tokens)

Target: Frontier models with 200k+ context (Claude Opus/Sonnet, Gemini 2.5 Pro)

Load:

  • Everything in Tier 3
  • Last 57 session files
  • Full project docs as relevant
  • ~/agents_sync/aether/docs/api_v3.md if task involves Aether API

Hard Rules

  • SOUL.md and IDENTITY.md are always loaded, regardless of tier.
  • Never inject: .env files, TOOLS.md (contains credentials), raw session logs older than 30 days.
  • MEMORY.md must stay under 4,000 tokens — enforce this during distillation.
  • When in doubt, use Tier 2. Over-loading small models degrades output quality.
