- PR #13266: fix(webhook): honor WEBHOOK_* env overrides in hermes_cli/webhook.py (#13240)

A bug where CLI webhook commands (list, subscribe, etc.) fail to read WEBHOOK_* environment variables, incorrectly reporting the platform as disabled. Multiple fix attempts target this env-var check in the CLI layer.

## Maintainer resolution verdict

- Internal-tracker verdict over this cluster's issue members: `unresolved`. This is distinct from the fix status above. Weigh it yourself.

## How this cluster was grouped

- Link evidence (`STRUCTURAL_PARTIAL`): some members are connected by structural evidence (shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference); the rest are joined by an automated relevance judgement over their text.
- Members outside that structural core may belong to a different underlying problem.
- Pairwise link density `0.34`: the share of member pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. `1.00` means every pair is linked.
