- PR #19504: fix(gateway): filter status PIDs by profile

Members concern \`gateway status\` output when multiple profiles exist, including a report that it shows running when only another profile's gateway is alive. Several pull requests propose filtering PIDs by profile, scoping status to the current profile, or listing other profiles to reduce confusion.
