       | `peerName` | string | — | User peer identity |
       | `aiPeer` | string | host key | AI peer identity |
       
      +### Identity Mapping (Gateway Multi-User)
      +
      +In gateway deployments (Telegram, Discord, Slack, etc.) each user arrives with a platform-native runtime ID (Telegram UID, Discord snowflake, Slack user). These three keys control how those runtime IDs map to Honcho peers. The resolver is config-driven and deterministic — no automatic merging or runtime inference.
      +
      +| Key | Type | Default | Description |
      +|-----|------|---------|-------------|
      +| `pinUserPeer` | bool | `false` | When `true`, every gateway runtime user collapses to `peerName`. Single-operator deployments where you want all your platforms (and any other users) to share one peer. Also accepted as `pinPeerName` |
      +| `pinPeerName` | bool | `false` | Alias for `pinUserPeer`; same effect |
      +| `userPeerAliases` | object | `{}` | Map of runtime IDs to peer IDs (`{"86701400": "eri"}`). Many-to-one is the intended pattern — alias all your runtime IDs to one peer name. One-to-many is not supported; one runtime ID resolves to exactly one peer |
      +| `runtimePeerPrefix` | string | `""` | Prepended to unknown runtime IDs to namespace them (e.g. `"telegram_"` → `telegram_86701400`). Used only when no alias matches. Prevents collisions between platforms whose runtime IDs share the same shape |
      +
      +**Resolver ladder** (first match wins):
      +
      +```
      +1. pinUserPeer / pinPeerName=true → return peerName (ignore runtime ID)
      +2. userPeerAliases[runtime_id]   → return aliased peer
      +3. userPeerAliases[runtime_id_alt] → check alt-ID too (Telegram UID + username, etc.)
      +4. runtimePeerPrefix + runtime_id → namespaced peer, with sha256 collision escalation
      +5. raw sanitized runtime_id      → fallback peer
      +6. peerName                      → no runtime ID at all (CLI/TUI)
      +7. session-key fallback          → no config either
      +```
      +
      +**Why no `pinAiPeer`?** The AI peer is already pinned by construction — `aiPeer` is the only AI-side identity setting and the resolver never overrides it. Only the user-side peer has the runtime-vs-config tension that `pinUserPeer` resolves.
      +
      +**Host vs root semantics.** All three keys are accepted at both root and `hosts.<host>` levels. Host-level wins. For maps and prefixes, host-level *replaces* the root value as a whole (not merge), so a host can intentionally own its identity universe or wipe it with `userPeerAliases: {}` / `runtimePeerPrefix: ""`.
      +
      +**Deployment shapes** (`hermes honcho setup` asks one prompt to set these):
      +
      +- **Single-operator** — `pinUserPeer: true`. All gateway users → `peerName`. Recommended for personal use where you connect Hermes to your own Telegram/Discord/etc.
      +- **Multi-user gateway** — `pinUserPeer: false`, optional `runtimePeerPrefix`. Each runtime user → own peer. Recommended for bots serving many humans.
      +- **Hybrid** — `pinUserPeer: false`, `userPeerAliases` mapping the operator's runtime IDs to `peerName`. Multi-user gateway where YOU are routed but others stay distinct.
      +
      +**Migrating single → multi.** Flipping `pinUserPeer` from `true` to `false` does not migrate data. Memory accumulated under `peerName` while pinned stays there; runtime users now resolve to fresh, empty peers. To preserve your own continuity, use the **hybrid** shape — alias your runtime IDs back to `peerName` so your turns keep landing on the pooled history while other users get their own peers. The setup wizard offers this path automatically when it detects a single → multi transition.

      +### Self-Hosted Honcho with Authentication
      +
      +When pointing Hermes at a self-hosted Honcho server, `hermes honcho setup` (and `hermes memory setup`) ask for a **local JWT / bearer token** after the base URL. Paste a JWT signed with the server's `AUTH_JWT_SECRET` (the Honcho compose env var) to enable authenticated access; leave it blank for servers running with `AUTH_USE_AUTH=false`. The local token is stored under the host block (`hosts.<host>.apiKey` in `honcho.json`), separate from any cloud `apiKey`, so you can flip the `Cloud or local?` prompt back to `cloud` later without losing either credential.

How this cluster was grouped
  • Link evidence (partly structural links): 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 0.26: the share of item 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.
