P4: Agent-Identitäten ohne Secrets — sanitized config feed

- Replace Python-based sanitizer in deploy script with lightweight jq/alpine
- Add sync-agents-sanitized.mjs for on-demand and watch-mode sync
- Add AgentConfigPath to appsettings.json (explicit default)
- Extend /health/live endpoint to report agent count from sanitized config
- Document architecture in docs/agent-identity-architecture.md
- No openclaw.json secrets ever reach Nexus API containers

Verification:
- curl /api/v1/agents → 9 agents, zero secrets in response
- agents-sanitized.json contains only 'agents' key, no gateway/auth
- All C# code paths read from agents-sanitized.json (AgentConfigPath)
- Bridge controller resolves agent IDs via AgentService.GetAllowedAgentIdsAsync()

+# Agent Identity Architecture (P4)
+
+> Status: ✅ Implemented (2026-07-13)
+> Task: `4291d694-dd40-410d-b0d5-4742d334547a`
+
+## Problem
+
+Nexus needed agent identity data (id, name, role, sub-agents, model) for the board/bridge
+operations, but reading directly from `/home/node/.openclaw/openclaw.json` would expose
+secrets (gateway password, API keys, auth profiles, channel tokens).
+
+## Solution: Sanitized Agent Config File
+
+### Architecture
+
+```
+openclaw.json (full config, SECRETS)
+    │
+    ├── Deploy-time: jq extract → agents-sanitized.json (NO secrets)
+    │   └── deploy-nexus.sh: extracts only {"agents": ...} from openclaw.json
+    │
+    ├── Manual sync: scripts/sync-agents-sanitized.mjs
+    │   └── node scripts/sync-agents-sanitized.mjs --once
+    │
+    └── Nexus API reads: agents-sanitized.json (read-only mount in compose)
+        ├── AgentService.LoadAgentConfigsAsync()
+        ├── OpenClawGatewayClient.LoadAgentIdsFromConfig()
+        └── AgentService.GetAllowedAgentIdsAsync()
+```
+
+### Key Design Decisions
+
+1. **Single sanitized source**: `agents-sanitized.json` contains ONLY the `agents` key
+   (list + defaults) — no `gateway`, `auth`, `channels`, `tools`, `plugins`, etc.
+   
+2. **Read-only mount**: Compose mounts as `:ro` — no write access from the API container
+
+3. **No ACL dependency**: No uid-1654 ACL needed; the sanitized file is root-owned and
+   world-readable
+
+4. **Graceful fallback**: If the sanitized file is missing, both `AgentService` and
+   `OpenClawGatewayClient` fall back to hardcoded agent IDs from `AgentIdentityCatalog`
+
+5. **Auto-sync on deploy**: The deploy pipeline (`deploy-nexus.sh`) regenerates the
+   sanitized file from `openclaw.json` using `jq` in an alpine container
+
+6. **Manual sync available**: `scripts/sync-agents-sanitized.mjs` provides on-demand
+   and watch-mode sync
+
+### File Layout
+
+| File | Location | Purpose |
+|------|----------|---------|
+| `openclaw.json` | `/home/node/.openclaw/openclaw.json` | Full config with secrets (gateway only) |
+| `agents-sanitized.json` | `/home/node/.openclaw/agents-sanitized.json` | Agents-only, no secrets |
+| Compose mount | `compose.yaml` → API container | `agents-sanitized.json:ro` |
+| Deploy sanitizer | `.gitea/scripts/deploy-nexus.sh` | jq extraction on deploy |
+| Sync script | `scripts/sync-agents-sanitized.mjs` | Node.js manual/watch sync |
+| Config path | `backend/appsettings.json` | `AgentConfigPath` key |
+
+### Security Guarantees
+
+- ✅ No `password`, `token`, `secret`, or `api_key` values in `agents-sanitized.json`
+- ✅ API endpoints (`/api/v1/agents`, `/api/v1/agents/{id}`) return ZERO secrets
+- ✅ Gateway bridge controller (`/api/bridge/*`) uses only agent IDs from sanitized config
+- ✅ No direct `openclaw.json` reads in any C# code path
+- ✅ Agent identity catalog (`AgentIdentityCatalog`) is a hardcoded fallback, not a primary source
+
+### Verification
+
+```bash
+# Check sanitized file has no secrets
+curl -s http://nexus-api-1:8080/api/v1/agents \
+  -H "X-Api-Key: <key>" | grep -i "password\|secret\|token\|apikey"
+# Expected: no output
+
+# Verify only "agents" key exists in sanitized file
+python3 -c "
+import json
+with open('agents-sanitized.json') as f:
+    data = json.load(f)
+print(list(data.keys()))  # Should print ['agents']
+"
