Fix Gateway Status Import Error

Solution: Create Hybrid status.py

Create a hybrid version that maintains Windows compatibility while restoring all required functions.

Step 1: Examine the Current File

read_file /path/to/hermes-agent/gateway/status.py

Check what functions are present. The Windows version typically only has:

• get_running_pid()
• write_pid_file()
• remove_pid_file()
• release_all_scoped_locks()

Step 2: Check Backup File

read_file /path/to/hermes-agent/gateway/status.py.backup

The backup contains the original implementation with all required functions.

Step 3: Check What's Imported

Search for all imports of gateway.status to understand the full scope:

search_files "from gateway.status import" /path/to/hermes-agent

This reveals all required functions.

Step 4: Create Hybrid Implementation

The hybrid status.py should:

1. Keep Windows PID checking logic: On Windows, check process existence via file modification time
2. Add Unix process checking: On Unix, use /proc filesystem and os.kill()
3. Make lock functions platform-aware: Handle /proc access gracefully on Windows
4. Include all required functions: See complete list below

Complete Function List Required

The final status.py must include:

• get_running_pid() - with platform-specific logic
• write_pid_file(pid)
• remove_pid_file()
• acquire_scoped_lock(scope, identity, metadata)
• release_scoped_lock(scope, identity)
• release_all_scoped_locks()
• write_runtime_status() - with gateway_state, platform, etc. parameters
• read_runtime_status()
• is_gateway_running()
