Gateway crashes at startup with NameError: name 'InProcessCronScheduler' is not defined

Environment

• Python 3.14.7 (uv-managed cpython)
• Fresh managed install, cron enabled (default cron/ state in ~/.hermes)
• Command: hermes gateway

Symptom

The gateway banner prints, adapters begin connecting, then the process crashes:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ".../hermes_cli/gateway.py", line 5371, in run_gateway
    success = asyncio.run(start_gateway(replace=replace, verbosity=verbosity))
  ...
  File ".../gateway/run.py", line 28757, in start_gateway
    isinstance(cron_provider, InProcessCronScheduler)
NameError: name 'InProcessCronScheduler' is not defined

Every gateway start with cron enabled crashes; messaging platforms never finish coming up.

Root cause

start_gateway() resolves the cron scheduler via:

from cron.scheduler_provider import resolve_cron_scheduler   # gateway/run.py:28741

but then references the class itself for two isinstance checks:

• line 28757 — multiplex-profile tick configuration (multiplex_profiles: cron jobs registered in a secondary profile's store never fire — the single gateway only runs the default profile's ticker NousResearch/hermes-agent#69377)
• line 28778 — local external-drain dispatch gate

InProcessCronScheduler is only imported inside a different function scope (_start_cron_ticker, line 28166), so it is not visible here.

Fix

One line — import both symbols where they are used:

from cron.scheduler_provider import InProcessCronScheduler, resolve_cron_scheduler
