"""
Profile management for multiple isolated Hermes instances.
Each profile is a fully independent HERMES_HOME directory with its own
config.yaml, .env, memory, sessions, skills, gateway, cron, and logs.
Profiles live under ``~/.hermes/profiles/<name>/`` by default.
The "default" profile is ``~/.hermes`` itself — backward compatible,
zero migration needed.
Usage::
hermes profile create coder # fresh profile + bundled skills
hermes profile create coder --clone # also copy config, .env, SOUL.md, skills
hermes profile create coder --clone-all # full copy of source profile
coder chat # use via wrapper alias
hermes -p coder chat # or via flag
hermes profile use coder # set as sticky default
hermes profile delete coder # remove profile + alias + service

No-op on host (systemd/launchd/windows) — those backends raise
``NotImplementedError`` on ``register_profile_gateway`` and the
existing per-profile unit-generation paths handle lifecycle.
Best-effort: any error (no backend detected, s6 not yet ready,
etc.) is logged and swallowed so profile creation doesn't fail
because the s6 supervision tree is in a weird state. The user
can re-register manually later via the gateway start command,
which goes through the same dispatch path.
Port selection: each supervised profile gateway loads its own
``HERMES_HOME`` and binds the port resolved by ``gateway/config.py``
from that profile's environment — ``API_SERVER_PORT`` (or
``platforms.api_server.extra.port`` in the profile's
``config.yaml``), defaulting to 8642. There is no ``[gateway] port``
key and no Python-side allocator (PR #30136 review item I5 retired
the SHA-256-derived range [9200, 9800) as dead code), so two
profiles that both leave the port at its default will both try to
bind 8642 — give each profile a distinct ``API_SERVER_PORT`` in its
``.env``.
Host short-circuit: check ``detect_service_manager()`` first and
return immediately if it isn't ``"s6"``. This keeps host
(systemd/launchd/windows) profile creation completely silent —

of the ``⚠ Could not register s6 gateway service`` warning ever
rendering on a non-container machine. The earlier

where detection somehow returns ``"s6"`` but the backend isn't
actually the S6 one.
