Ben 299b9dba67 feat(hooks): extend HookRegistry with programmatic registration, sync emit, and tui:* mirror
Adds three small extensions to the existing event hook system so plugins can
observe agent activity without introducing a parallel pub/sub bus (cf. closed
PR #34195 which duplicated this surface).

Changes to gateway/hooks.py:

- HookRegistry.register(event_type, handler, *, name=None) — programmatic
  registration that pairs with file-system discovery from ~/.hermes/hooks/.
  Returns a no-arg callable that deregisters that specific handler. Other
  handlers on the same event are unaffected.

- HookRegistry.emit_sync(event_type, context) — companion to the async
  emit() for hot-path callers that cannot await. Sync handlers run
  immediately; async handlers are scheduled on the current running event
  loop (if any) via asyncio.ensure_future, or skipped with a one-time
  per-handler warning when no loop is available. Like emit(), it never
  raises and a buggy subscriber can't break the host pipeline.

- get_default_registry() / install_as_default(registry) — module-level
  default registry singleton so plugins and in-process callers can find
  'the' registry without threading a reference through every API. The
  gateway installs its own self.hooks as the default during startup.

Changes to tui_gateway/server.py:

- _emit() now mirrors every JSON-RPC event onto the default registry as
  a 'tui:<sub-event>' hook event with context = {session_id, payload}.
  The mirror runs as a side-effect after write_json and is wrapped in a
  broad try/except so a subscriber bug can never break TUI dispatch. The
  gateway.hooks module is imported lazily on first _emit call to keep
  TUI cold-start cheap.

Wildcard semantics unchanged — handlers registered for 'tui:*' fire for
every tui:<anything> event, just like the existing 'command:*' pattern.

Test coverage: +10 unit tests in tests/gateway/test_hooks.py covering
register/unregister, emit_sync sync+async+wildcard+exception paths, and
default-registry singleton behavior. New tests/test_tui_gateway_hook_bridge.py
exercises the _emit → registry plumbing end-to-end including subscriber
exception isolation, wildcard subscriptions, and the lazy resolve cache.

Docs: website/docs/user-guide/features/hooks.md gains a 'tui:*' events
table, the new 'Programmatic registration' section, and a note that
each Hermes process has its own registry (gateway-discovered hooks are
loaded independently in each process).

Test counts: 38 hooks tests (was 28), 6 new bridge tests.

Website

This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.

Installation

yarn

Local Development

yarn start

This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.

Build

yarn build

This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.

Deployment

Using SSH:

USE_SSH=true yarn deploy

Not using SSH:

GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy

If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.

Diagram Linting

CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
