Closing as superseded by #14200.

Triage notes (medium confidence):
Merged PR #14200 ('fix(gateway): recover stale pid and planned restart state') reworked _cleanup_invalid_pid_path and stale runtime recovery in gateway/status.py + hermes_cli/gateway.py covering the same self-heal-on-launchd-start scenario.

Thanks for the contribution — the underlying problem this PR addresses has been resolved by the linked PR on current main. If you believe this was closed in error, please comment and we'll reopen.
