With no production instance yet, there is no reason to carry two ways
of configuring the agent. Every environment variable that duplicated a
config key is gone; the environment now supplies only the secrets the
file references by ${…}, plus NISSE_CONFIG and NISSE_ENV to find the
files.
- AgentConfig loads from a file (load, from_file) or a parsed tree
(from_tree, for tests); a missing file is an error naming the example
- The from_env constructors on LiteLLMClient, AnthropicPassthroughClient,
GiteaClient, MatrixConfig and RoleMap are removed, with the env
reading for max output tokens; clients take their settings from config
- The live integration tests share a committed agent config,
tests/integration/nisse-test.yaml, aimed at test resources, and one
conftest that loads it and builds clients. NISSE_LIVE_PLANNER_MODEL
becomes its planner role; NISSE_CAPABILITY_MODELS stays as a per-run
switch
- A missing secret now fails the live tests instead of skipping them
- CI passes only the three tokens
- .env.example is secrets only; spec A5 says config comes from the file

- matrix.py: Transport implementation over the Matrix client-server
HTTP API directly (token auth, /sync long-poll, /send) using the
existing httpx dependency — no Matrix SDK; four endpoints total.
Deviation from the presented plan (matrix-nio) flagged in the PR
- First sync learns position and skips backlog, so room history is
never delivered as context (A1); own messages and non-message
events filtered; sender MXID passed through for the orchestrator's
operator allowlist
- Sync loop backs off (capped at 60s) and retries indefinitely on
homeserver errors, mirroring B2's polling posture
- Encrypted rooms unsupported: bot rooms are created unencrypted
until E2E lands (operator decision; room recreated accordingly)
- NISSE_MATRIX_TEST_ROOM_ID added: the live smoke test binds only
to the dedicated test room, never the production room
- 8 unit tests over a mocked HTTP layer; live integration test
verified against the real homeserver
