kshitijk4poor ee942a7bbf fix(terminal-env): adapter secrets are the declared ones, not any platform-named variable
The shape rule (a platform prefix plus _TOKEN/_SECRET/_PASSWORD/_KEY) also
matched variables Hermes never reads: the platform list holds plain words
(LOCAL, GATEWAY, WEBHOOK, SLACK), so a user's SLACK_USER_TOKEN,
LOCAL_LLM_API_KEY or GATEWAY_API_KEY vanished from the terminal and
terminal.env_passthrough could not bring them back. The prefix census it
leaned on also failed open (an unreadable plugins dir cached an empty set).

Adapter secrets now come from what adapters declare: password entries of
the messaging OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS (built-ins plus every platform plugin
manifest) and secret-named keys of the gateway env-override table, both
Tier 1 and refused by passthrough; plus the secret-named required_env of
adapters registered in the current profile scope, read per spawn without
loading deferred adapters, Tier 2 only because required_env is an
unchecked setup list. Secrets nothing declared get a manifest entry
(TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SECRET, PHOTON_SIDECAR_TOKEN, A2A_PUSH_SECRET,
TEAMS_GRAPH_ACCESS_TOKEN, TEAMS_INCOMING_WEBHOOK_URL) or join the
policy's read-in-code list (QQ_STT_API_KEY, the two MSGRAPH names).

description: >
Photon Spectrum gateway adapter for Hermes Agent.
Connects to iMessage (and other Spectrum interfaces) through Photon's
managed Spectrum platform. Both directions run over the `spectrum-ts`
SDK's long-lived gRPC stream via a small supervised Node sidecar —
inbound messages arrive on the SDK's `app.messages` stream (no webhook,
no public URL, no signing secret), and outbound messages are sent over
the same sidecar.
The plugin ships with a `hermes photon` CLI for the one-time device
login + project + user setup. Runtime credentials are written to
``~/.hermes/.env`` (``PHOTON_PROJECT_ID`` = the Spectrum project id,
``PHOTON_PROJECT_SECRET``) like every other channel, with management
metadata (device token, dashboard project id) in ``~/.hermes/auth.json``.
Photon's free shared-line model lets users get started without a paid plan.
