Both Cleric archetypes. They both kinda alter domains, but in different ways. Clostered Cleric reduces the number of domains selected to 1, while hidden priest swaps the the domain powers themselves from your selection of one of your domains.
I'd have a cleric with only a single domain, and no domain powers from that one domain. Not really broken, as I'm seeing it, more of a rules question on legality for PFS...?
Basically, the concepting I'm looking at is a cleric fully disguised as a Bard. Hidden Priest allows me to disguise my divine casting as bard spells, and the cloistered cleric gives me a variant of bardic knowledge. Useful for adventures where you don't want to broadcast your religion.
If two archetypes alter the same class feature in any way they are incompatible. In PFS that means you can't stack them on one character.

I understand that, but they only kinda alter the same class feature.
Cloistered cleric reduces your domain selections from 2 to 1, but does nothing further. Hidden priest swaps out domain powers (but not the actual domains), but otherwise has no negative interactions if there is only one domain, rather than two, to swap powers from.
There is no distinction for "kind of alters" and "really alters." They do not stack. In a home game ask your GM though. In this case they might let it work.
pfs operates on standard rules, so there isnt space in their ruling for a 'kind of alters'. Thems the breaks if you play pfs, for a home game, ask your gm.
The rules are unfortunately clear, and I get your logic, but it just doesnt matter. the rules are what they are
Here is the FAQ on this. Basically, if 2 archetypes modify a class feature at all, you can't combine them unless they only modify different sub-features (such as Bardic Performances) that are explicitly split out as sub-features. Nothing about Cleric Domains is explicitly split out as sub-features, so no go.

It they alter, change, add, replace, amend, enhance, touch, exchange, influence, extend, ascend, lick, smell, smile, flirt, squeeze, crush, scream, smack, or reduce then they don't work together.
Changing 2 to 1 domain is incompatible with all archetypes that mention the word "domain" such as changing one domain power or anything to do with your domains.
