hermes: single-container deploy (gateway + dashboard), as deployed on bob
All checks were successful
images / hermes (push) Successful in 37s

The image's command selects mode; no command = interactive CLI which
crash-loops under systemd. Switched to the supported headless setup: one
container running `gateway run` with the dashboard supervised alongside
via HERMES_DASHBOARD=1 (same netns so the dashboard can reach the gateway,
which two bridge-networked containers could not). Image fails closed on a
0.0.0.0 dashboard bind, so HERMES_DASHBOARD_INSECURE=1 opts into the chosen
trusted-LAN exposure on :5100. Verified live on bob: gateway stable, dash
HTTP 200 across the LAN, inference endpoint reachable, enrolled in
podman-auto-update.timer. Dropped the redundant separate dashboard quadlet.

- `Exec=gateway run` → the agent daemon (`hermes gateway run --replace`), s6-supervised.
- `HERMES_DASHBOARD=1` → the dashboard web UI (binds `0.0.0.0:9119`) in the **same**
container — which is what lets it reach the gateway (two bridge-networked
containers could not, unlike upstream's host-networked compose).
- The image **fails closed** on a non-loopback dashboard bind: it refuses
`0.0.0.0` unless OAuth is configured *or* `HERMES_DASHBOARD_INSECURE=1` is set.
We expose on the trusted LAN without auth, so we opt in. ⚠ Anyone on the LAN
can reach the API-key-storing UI — switch to `HERMES_DASHBOARD_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID`
for real auth if that's not acceptable.
