Adds 4 new direct API-key providers (zai, kimi-coding, minimax, minimax-cn)
to the inference provider system. All use standard OpenAI-compatible
chat/completions endpoints with Bearer token auth.
Core changes:
- auth.py: Extended ProviderConfig with api_key_env_vars and base_url_env_var
fields. Added providers to PROVIDER_REGISTRY. Added provider aliases
(glm, z-ai, zhipu, kimi, moonshot). Added auto-detection of API-key
providers in resolve_provider(). Added resolve_api_key_provider_credentials()
and get_api_key_provider_status() helpers.
- runtime_provider.py: Added generic API-key provider branch in
resolve_runtime_provider() — any provider with auth_type='api_key'
is automatically handled.
- main.py: Added providers to hermes model menu with generic
_model_flow_api_key_provider() flow. Updated _has_any_provider_configured()
to check all provider env vars. Updated argparse --provider choices.
- setup.py: Added providers to setup wizard with API key prompts and
curated model lists.
- config.py: Added env vars (GLM_API_KEY, KIMI_API_KEY, MINIMAX_API_KEY,
etc.) to OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS.
- status.py: Added API key display and provider status section.
- doctor.py: Added connectivity checks for each provider endpoint.
- cli.py: Updated provider docstrings.
Docs: Updated README.md, .env.example, cli-config.yaml.example,
cli-commands.md, environment-variables.md, configuration.md.
Tests: 50 new tests covering registry, aliases, resolution, auto-detection,
credential resolution, and runtime provider dispatch.
Inspired by PR #33 (numman-ali) which proposed a provider registry approach.
Credit to tars90percent (PR #473) and manuelschipper (PR #420) for related
provider improvements merged earlier in this changeset.
Adds a /update command to Telegram, Discord, and other gateway platforms
that runs `hermes update` to pull the latest code, update dependencies,
sync skills, and restart the gateway.
Implementation:
- Spawns `hermes update` in a separate systemd scope (systemd-run --user
--scope) so the process survives the gateway restart that hermes update
triggers at the end. Falls back to nohup if systemd-run is unavailable.
- Writes a marker file (.update_pending.json) with the originating
platform and chat_id before spawning the update.
- On gateway startup, _send_update_notification() checks for the marker,
reads the captured update output, sends the results back to the user,
and cleans up.
Also:
- Registers /update as a Discord slash command
- Updates README.md, docs/messaging.md, docs/slash-commands.md
- Adds 18 tests covering handler, notification, and edge cases
Enhanced documentation to reflect the new interactive setup command for configuring messaging platforms (Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp). Updated sections in AGENTS.md, README.md, and messaging.md to provide clear instructions on using the 'hermes gateway setup' command, improving user experience and accessibility for platform configuration.
- Add scripts/install.cmd batch wrapper for CMD users (delegates to install.ps1)
- Add _find_shell() in local.py: detects Git Bash on Windows via
HERMES_GIT_BASH_PATH env var, shutil.which, or common install paths
(same pattern as Claude Code's CLAUDE_CODE_GIT_BASH_PATH)
- Use _find_shell() in process_registry.py for background processes
- Fix hermes_cli/gateway.py: use wmic instead of ps aux on Windows,
skip SIGKILL (doesn't exist on Windows), fix venv path
(Scripts/python.exe vs bin/python)
- Update README with three install commands (Linux/macOS, PowerShell, CMD)
and Windows native documentation
Requires Git for Windows, which bundles bash.exe. The terminal tool
transparently uses Git Bash for shell commands regardless of whether
the user launched hermes from PowerShell or CMD.
Updated the README and messaging documentation to clarify the two modes for WhatsApp integration: 'bot' mode (recommended) and 'self-chat' mode. Improved setup instructions to guide users through the configuration process, including allowlist management and dependency installation. Adjusted CLI commands to reflect these changes and ensure a smoother user experience. Additionally, modified the WhatsApp bridge to support the new mode functionality.
The Docker sandbox previously used --read-only on the root filesystem and
noexec on /tmp. This broke 30+ skills that need to install packages:
- npm install -g (codex, claude-code, mcporter, powerpoint)
- pip install (20+ mlops/media/productivity skills)
- apt install (minecraft-modpack-server, ml-paper-writing)
- Build tools that compile in /tmp (pip wheels, node-gyp)
The container is already fully isolated from the host. Industry standard
(E2B, Docker Sandboxes, OpenAI Codex) does not use --read-only — the
container itself is the security boundary.
Retained security hardening:
- --cap-drop ALL (zero capabilities)
- --security-opt no-new-privileges (no escalation)
- --pids-limit 256 (no fork bombs)
- Size-limited tmpfs for /tmp, /var/tmp, /run
- nosuid on all tmpfs mounts
- noexec on /var/tmp and /run (rarely need exec there)
- Resource limits (CPU, memory, disk)
- Ephemeral containers (destroyed after use)
Fixes#189.
