description: "Dashboard auth provider — non-interactive shared-bearer-secret for the gateway drain-control endpoint. The first consumer of the generic token-auth capability (supports_token/verify_token). nous-account-service provisions a per-agent unique secret via HERMES_DASHBOARD_DRAIN_SECRET; this provider verifies an inbound Authorization bearer token against it with a constant-time compare and registers /api/gateway/drain as token-authable. Fails CLOSED: a weak/short/low-entropy secret (< 256 bits) is rejected at registration and the endpoint stays disabled. No-op when the env var is unset. Behavioural knobs (scope, min_secret_chars) live under dashboard.drain_auth in config.yaml."
