TOML allows dashes in bare keys, so `[agents.dev-qwen2]` is a valid
section. Before this fix, load-project.sh derived bash var names via
Python `.upper()` alone, which kept the dash and produced
`AGENT_DEV-QWEN2_BASE_URL` — an invalid shell identifier. Under
`set -euo pipefail` the subsequent `export` aborted the whole file,
silently taking the factory down on the N+1 run after a dashed agent
was hired via `disinto hire-an-agent`.
Normalize via `.upper().replace('-', '_')` to match the
`tr 'a-z-' 'A-Z_'` convention already used by hire-agent.sh (#834)
and generators.sh (#852). Also harden hire-agent.sh to reject invalid
agent names at hire time (before any Forgejo side effects), so
unparseable TOML sections never land on disk.
- `lib/load-project.sh` — dash-to-underscore in emitted shell var names
- `lib/hire-agent.sh` — validate agent name against
`^[a-z]([a-z0-9]|-[a-z0-9])*$` up front
- `tests/lib-load-project.bats` — regression guard covering the parse
path and the hire-time reject path
