I have one server that isn't handled by the agent, becaue I don't want
agent to cache the articles from it (because the articles are mostly
noise...) and that is news.gwene.org.
Is it possible to make 'J j' close this server and open this server
again, with the agentized servers, without adding the server to the
agent and thereby start doing caching?
Thanks!

Your goal is to go unplugged, but not cache any articles, right? My
impression was that if you don't use "J s" to explicitly download
eligible articles, the agent won't do anything. Is that not correct?

I believe (but unverified) that any article you read will be cached in
the agent's store.

Yes. That was the behaviour the agent had last time I checked.
(mind you, last time I checked was around 20 years ago...)

Oh I see, yes. I don't think there's a knob for that, but you can make
sure agent expiry is on, and set `gnus-agent-expire-days' to 1 or
something. If that doesn't slim down locally-cached data then it's a
bug!

Now I've encountered an interesting feature/bug: gnus-cloud
synchronization does not work, if the IMAP server used to store the sync
info is agentized.
Hm...
