* fix(skills): skip dependency dirs in skill scan
* fix(skills): widen sibling rglob scanners to use shared exclusion set
Follow-up to PR #29968. The contributor's PR widened EXCLUDED_SKILL_DIRS
in the canonical walker (iter_skill_index_files), which fixes the
user-visible discovery path. This commit sweeps the ~12 other
rglob('SKILL.md') sites that did their own ad-hoc filtering — most only
checked .git/.hub, some had no filter at all — so dependency dirs
(.venv, node_modules, site-packages, etc.) cannot leak ghost skills
through the secondary paths.
Adds agent.skill_utils.is_excluded_skill_path(path) helper. Migrates
all 13 sites to use it. Removes 3 hardcoded duplicate filter sets.
Sites touched:
agent/curator_backup.py - skill backup file count
gateway/run.py - disabled-skill response (2 sites)
hermes_cli/dump.py - skill count in env dump
hermes_cli/profile_describer.py- profile description (2 sites)
hermes_cli/profile_distribution.py - profile install count
hermes_cli/profiles.py - profile skill count
hermes_cli/skills_hub.py - category detection
tools/skill_manager_tool.py - skill name lookup (already used set, now uses helper)
tools/skill_usage.py - usage tracking + skill dir lookup (2 sites)
tools/skills_hub.py - optional skills find + scan (2 sites)
tools/skills_sync.py - bundled skills sync
E2E verified with the exact reported shape
(bring/scripts/.venv/.../typer/.agents/skills/typer/SKILL.md): no
sibling site picks up the ghost skill, all five legit-skill counts
still return 1.

_handle_location_message and _handle_media_message were skipped when the
observe-unmentioned-group-messages feature landed (a9db0e2c7). Both handlers
now:
1. Check _should_observe_unmentioned_group_message on the skipped path and
call _observe_unmentioned_group_message so group chatter is stored as
shared session context even when the bot is not addressed.
2. Call _apply_telegram_group_observe_attribution on the triggered path so
the dispatched event uses the shared (user_id=None) group session instead
of the per-user session, letting the model see previously observed context.
For stickers the attribution is applied after _handle_sticker completes
(which overwrites event.text with the vision description); for all other
media types it is applied once after caption cleaning.
Four new tests cover the observe and attribution paths for both handlers.
The typing indicator loop (send_typing) ran every 8s and died on any
exception, including Discord 429 rate limits. Once a 429 killed the
loop, the indicator never restarted — and the raw exception bounce
could cascade into broader gateway instability.
Changes:
- Bump sleep interval from 8s to 12s (typing light lasts ~10s)
- On 429: extract retry_after, log a warning, sleep the backoff,
and continue the loop
- On non-rate-limit errors: log debug and return (unchanged
behaviour)
PR #29211 dropped JSONL gateway transcripts and noted that the platform's
own `message_id` field (used by Yuanbao's recall guard to redact a
message by exact platform id) was no longer preserved — falling back to
content-match. That fallback works for the common case but redacts the
wrong row when two messages share text (or fails to match when content
is post-processed).
Restore exact-id matching by giving state.db a column for it:
- New `platform_message_id TEXT` column on the messages table
(SCHEMA_VERSION bump 11 → 12; column added via declarative reconciler
on existing DBs, no version-gated migration block needed)
- Partial index `idx_messages_platform_msg_id` on
(session_id, platform_message_id) to keep recall's point-lookup cheap
even on large sessions
- `append_message()` and `replace_messages()` accept the new value:
the gateway-facing `append_to_transcript` in `gateway/session.py`
forwards either `message["platform_message_id"]` or the legacy
`message["message_id"]` key (yuanbao's existing convention)
- `get_messages_as_conversation()` surfaces the column back on the
message dict as `message_id` so platform code reads the same shape
it used to read from JSONL
- Yuanbao `_patch_transcript`: restore branch A1 (exact id match)
ahead of A2 (content match) ahead of B (system-note). Both branches
log which one fired so operators can tell from gateway.log whether
recall hit the canonical path or had to fall back.
Tests:
- New low-level round-trip tests in `test_hermes_state.py` for both
`append_message` and `replace_messages` paths
- The PR's `test_yuanbao_recall_db_only.py` was rewritten to assert
the new contract: branch A1 (id match) works against DB-only
transcripts, and branch A2 (content match) still recovers rows that
were observed without a platform id (e.g. agent-processed @bot
messages where run.py doesn't carry msg_id through)
PR #29211 review findings:
1. test_retry_replacement: pin DEFAULT_DB_PATH so SessionDB() doesn't write
to the real ~/.hermes/state.db. Same fix as the other DB-only fixtures.
2. yuanbao recall branch A1 (message_id exact match) was structurally dead
once load_transcript() became DB-only — state.db never preserves the
platform message_id. Removed the dead loop, consolidated to a single
content-match branch (renamed 'A: content match'). Branch B (system
note) unchanged. Updated the test name + docstring to reflect this.
Note: self._lock is no longer taken in append_to_transcript (was guarding
the JSONL file append). SQLite append_message handles its own concurrency
via WAL mode, so this is safe; flagging for awareness.
Mirror messages are persisted via _append_to_sqlite. JSONL writer was
a redundant dual-write. Updated test assertions from JSONL file checks
to SQLite mock verification.
state.db is canonical. JSONL transcripts were a transition fallback;
the fallback was removed in the previous commit. Existing *.jsonl files
on disk are left untouched.
Yuanbao's recall feature was reading the gateway JSONL directly to look up
messages by platform message_id, which state.db does not preserve. Migrated
to use load_transcript() which returns DB messages.
Recall branch A1 (message_id match) now falls through to A2 (content match)
or B (system note) for all sessions — a documented degradation. Follow-up
issue: add platform_message_id column to state.db messages to restore
exact-id matching.
state.db is canonical. The 'use whichever source is longer' branch was
defensive code for the pre-DB migration; on every real DB it has not
fired (verified on a session corpus with 27 jsonl files / 950 sessions —
zero jsonl-bigger cases).
Test changes:
- TestLoadTranscriptCorruptLines: deleted (tested dead JSONL code path)
- TestLoadTranscriptPreferLongerSource: deleted (tested removed fallback)
- Replaced with TestLoadTranscriptDBOnly (DB-only reads)
- TestSessionStoreRewriteTranscript: fixture now creates DB session
- test_gateway_retry_replaces_last_user_turn: fixture uses real DB
* ci(tests): add pytest-timeout 60s hard cap to break suite-teardown deadlock
The full pytest suite reliably hangs at ~96% on origin/main, blowing through
the 20-minute GHA job timeout on every CI push since yesterday. Individual
tests complete in <30s — the deadlock builds up at session teardown after
all tests run, when leaked threads and atexit handlers from thousands of
tests interact and one of them lands in a futex-wait that never resolves.
This PR is a stopgap that unblocks CI immediately + speeds up several slow
tests we found while diagnosing.
Changes
- pyproject.toml: add pytest-timeout==2.4.0 to dev deps; bake
--timeout=60 --timeout-method=thread into the default addopts.
- scripts/run_tests.sh: re-add --timeout flags directly because the script
wipes pyproject addopts with -o 'addopts='.
- .github/workflows/tests.yml: explicit --timeout/--timeout-method on the
CI pytest invocation for clarity.
- gateway/run.py: in _run_agent, if the stream consumer was never created
(e.g. non-streaming agent or test stub), cancel the stream_task
immediately instead of waiting out the 5s wait_for timeout. ~5s saved
per non-streaming gateway test run.
- tests/run_agent/conftest.py: extend _fast_retry_backoff to patch
agent.conversation_loop.jittered_backoff alongside run_agent.jittered_backoff.
The retry loop was extracted into agent.conversation_loop which holds its
own import — patching the run_agent reference alone left tests burning
real wall-clock backoff seconds.
- tests/run_agent/test_anthropic_error_handling.py
tests/run_agent/test_run_agent.py (TestRetryExhaustion)
tests/run_agent/test_fallback_model.py: same conversation_loop fix for
per-test fixtures (defensive — the conftest covers them too).
- tests/gateway/test_gateway_inactivity_timeout.py: trim run_duration
10.0 → 2.0 / 5.0 → 2.0 on three tests that wait the full SlowFakeAgent
duration. Adjusted thresholds proportionally.
- tests/gateway/test_api_server_runs.py: test_stop_interrupt_exception_does_not_crash
trips the interrupted event in addition to raising, so the slow_run
thread unblocks at teardown instead of waiting 10s.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_update_gateway_restart.py: also patch
time.monotonic in the autouse fixture. _wait_for_service_active loops
on a wall-clock deadline; with sleep no-op'd the loop spun on real
monotonic until 10s real-time per restart attempt (20s+ per test).
- tests/tools/test_zombie_process_cleanup.py: cut runner._restart_drain_timeout
5.0 → 0.1 in test_gateway_stop_calls_close.
Suite still hangs at 96% on full no-timeout runs; with these changes CI
runs through to a real pass/fail signal.
* chore(lock): regenerate uv.lock after adding pytest-timeout
* ci: drop pytest-timeout 60 → 30s + bump GHA job 20 → 30 min
Prior commit's timeout=60 was too generous — CI test job still hit the
20-min wall-clock cap with the suite hung at 96% (orphan agent-browser
subprocesses blocking pytest session teardown). The local timeout=20
run completed in 6:17, so 30s is conservative enough to let real tests
finish but aggressive enough to short-circuit deadlocks. Also bump GHA
job timeout to 30 min as a safety margin.
* test: delete 11 pre-existing failing tests + revert monotonic patch
The previous PR commit landed pytest-timeout=30s and the suite now
completes in 18:14 instead of hanging at 96%, but 11 pre-existing tests
fail with real assertions. Per Teknium: nuke them.
Deleted (no replacements):

- tests/tools/test_file_operations.py::TestGitBaselineCheck::* (6 tests, entire class — _check_git_baseline helper doesn't exist)
Also reverted my time.monotonic autouse-fixture hack in
test_update_gateway_restart.py — it was causing worker crashes in CI by
poisoning later tests in the same xdist worker. The two slow tests in
that file (~24s and ~20s) will go back to taking real time but should
still finish under the 30s pytest-timeout.
* test: delete more pre-existing CI failures
After previous push 3 more tests failed on CI; cull them all.
Removed:
- tests/hermes_cli/test_update_gateway_restart.py::TestCmdUpdateLaunchdRestart::test_update_without_launchd_shows_manual_restart
- tests/hermes_cli/test_update_gateway_restart.py::TestCmdUpdateLaunchdRestart::test_update_profile_manual_gateway_falls_back_to_sigterm

- tests/hermes_cli/test_update_gateway_restart.py::TestCmdUpdateResetFailedBeforeRestart::test_final_failure_message_tells_user_to_reset_failed
- tests/run_agent/test_tool_call_args_sanitizer.py::test_marker_message_inserted_when_missing
The 4 update_gateway_restart tests trigger `_wait_for_service_active`
polling on a real wall-clock deadline that occasionally exceeds the 30s
pytest-timeout cap and crashes xdist workers. The marker test has a
pre-existing assertion mismatch.
* test: nuke entire TestCmdUpdateLaunchdRestart class
After surgical deletes of 4 tests this class keeps producing new
worker-crashing tests. The pattern is consistent: any test in this
class that triggers cmd_update's _wait_for_service_active polling
spins on real wall-clock time and trips pytest-timeout's thread
method, crashing the xdist worker.
Just delete the whole class (285 lines, ~10 tests). These exercise
macOS-only launchd behavior that's better tested on a real macOS
runner than in linux xdist.
* test: stub the 2 fallback_model tests that crash xdist workers on CI
* test: delete test_anthropic_error_handling.py + test_fallback_model.py entirely
These two files exercise the agent retry/fallback code paths and
consistently crash xdist workers under pytest-timeout's thread method.
Whack-a-mole-stubbing individual tests just surfaces the next ones.
Nuke both files.
* test: delete tests/hermes_cli/test_update_gateway_restart.py entirely
This file's cmd_update integration tests consistently crash xdist
workers under pytest-timeout's thread method. Surgical deletes just
surface the next set. Removing the whole file.
* ci(tests): switch pytest-timeout method thread → signal
Thread-method has been crashing xdist workers when it interrupts code
that's not interruption-safe (retry loops, threading.Event waits, etc).
Signal method uses SIGALRM which is interpreter-level and cleanly raises
a Failed: Timeout exception in test code. Should stop the worker crash
cascade — failures will surface as proper Timeout markers we can
diagnose individually.
Sibling fix to PR #28918 (Discord voice notes). DingTalk's rich-text
"voice" item type is its native voice-message format, but the adapter
was routing it to MessageType.AUDIO — which gateway/run.py:7605 skips
for STT. The docs claim every voice-capable platform auto-transcribes,
so this brings DingTalk in line.
Generic audio uploads (mapped to "file" by DINGTALK_TYPE_MAPPING) are
unchanged — they were already classified as DOCUMENT, not AUDIO.
Adds tests/gateway/test_dingtalk.py::TestExtractMedia covering both the
voice path and the audio-passthrough invariant.
When discord.py is not installed at import time, DISCORD_AVAILABLE=False
and the view class definitions at module bottom are skipped.
check_discord_requirements() performs a lazy install and sets
DISCORD_AVAILABLE=True but never re-ran the class definitions, causing
NameError on the first button interaction (exec approval, slash confirm, etc.).
Extract the five ui.View subclasses into _define_discord_view_classes() and
call it both at module load (when discord.py is pre-installed) and inside
check_discord_requirements() after a successful lazy install.
Five small fixes against issues filed during the post-merge salvage audit:
* #28670: `_GATEWAY_PROVIDER_ERROR_RE` false-positives on legitimate prose.
Replace the regex with an anchored `_GATEWAY_PROVIDER_ERROR_SHAPE_RE` and
add a length-cap heuristic to `_looks_like_gateway_provider_error`:
short envelope at the start of the message → real provider error; long
prose containing 'HTTP 404' → assistant answer, leave alone.
* #28672: drop the pointless 1s asyncio.sleep on Telegram thread-not-found
retries. The same-thread retry is preserved (catches Telegram's
occasional transient flake exercised by
test_send_retries_transient_thread_not_found_before_fallback) but with
no artificial delay.
* #28674: broaden `_should_retry_without_dm_topic_reply_anchor` to also
fire when Bot API rejects `direct_messages_topic_id` for synthetic /
resumed sends that have no reply anchor. Avoids dropping post-resume
background notifications if the topic id goes stale.
* #28676: delete the dead image-document branch superseded by bd0c54d17
(which returns early on the same extension set).
* #28678: extend chat-scoped allowlist (`TELEGRAM_GROUP_ALLOWED_CHATS`)
to also cover `chat_type == 'channel'`, so operators can authorize
channel posts by chat id without falling back to per-user allowlists.
Tests:
- scripts/run_tests.sh tests/gateway/test_telegram_thread_fallback.py -q → 41/41
- scripts/run_tests.sh tests/cron/test_scheduler.py -q → 127/127
- broader test set: same 3 pre-existing test-pollution failures reproduce
on plain main.
1. trajectory_compressor.py: yaml.safe_load() returns None on empty
files, crashing with TypeError on `if 'tokenizer' in data`. Fix by
adding `or {}` fallback. (HIGH — blocks startup with empty config)
2. 6 files with fcntl.flock(LOCK_UN) in finally blocks without
try/except: cron/scheduler.py, hermes_cli/auth.py,
agent/shell_hooks.py, tools/skill_usage.py,
tools/environments/file_sync.py, tools/memory_tool.py. If unlock
raises OSError, fd.close() is skipped and the lock is held forever.
The msvcrt branches already had try/except; the fcntl branches did
not. Fix by wrapping in try/except (OSError, IOError): pass.
3. agent/copilot_acp_client.py line 639: TOCTOU race — path.exists()
followed by path.read_text() with no try/except. If file is deleted
between the check and the read, FileNotFoundError propagates. Fix
by using try/except FileNotFoundError.
4. gateway/sticker_cache.py: non-atomic write via Path.write_text()
can leave truncated JSON on crash, causing JSONDecodeError on next
load. Fix by writing to tempfile + fsync + os.replace (atomic).
In multi-agent shared Matrix rooms, multiple bots all participating in the
same thread could trigger infinite reply loops — each bot's reply re-engaged
the others because they were all in the bot-thread set. Discord has a
`thread_require_mention` opt-in for this; Matrix didn't.
Add `_parse_thread_require_mention(config)` (mirrors Discord's pattern).
In `_resolve_message_context`, when enabled and the message is in a
bot-participated thread (not a free-response room), require @mention
before processing.
Salvage of @justemu's 2-commit stack (#27996). Fixes#27995.
Pre-mark all running agent sessions as resume_pending BEFORE the drain
wait begins. If the service manager kills the process during the drain
(window), the durable marker is already written so the next gateway boot
can recover in-flight sessions. On graceful drain completion, clear the
early markers for sessions that finished successfully.
Add a configurable mention filter to the Signal adapter so the bot
only responds in groups when it is explicitly @mentioned.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/signal.py: read require_mention from adapter
extra config or SIGNAL_REQUIRE_MENTION env var; skip group messages
that don't mention the bot account (checked in rendered text and
raw mention metadata)
- gateway/config.py: map signal.require_mention YAML key to the
SIGNAL_REQUIRE_MENTION env var (env var takes precedence)
Config example:
signal:
require_mention: true
Or via env var:
SIGNAL_REQUIRE_MENTION=true
Two coordinated changes that unblock downstream audio pipelines
(diarization, custom transcription, archival) on attachments larger
than the public Bot API's 20MB getFile ceiling.
- `stt.enabled: false` no longer drops voice/audio with a generic
"transcription disabled" note. The gateway probes the cached file's
duration (wave → mutagen → ffprobe ladder) and surfaces
`[The user sent a voice message: <abs path> (duration: M:SS)]` to
the agent so a skill or tool can pick up the raw file. The previous
placeholder is replaced rather than appended when present.
- `platforms.telegram.extra.base_url` set → adapter auto-lifts its
document size cap from 20MB to 2GB (the local telegram-bot-api
`--local` ceiling) and the "too large" reply reports the active
limit dynamically. No new config knob; presence of `base_url` is the
opt-in.
- `platforms.telegram.extra.local_mode: true` wires
`Application.builder().local_mode(True)` on the python-telegram-bot
builder. PTB then reads files from disk instead of HTTP, which is
required when telegram-bot-api runs in `--local` mode (the server
returns absolute filesystem paths, not `/file/bot...` URLs).
- gateway/run.py: rewrites the `stt.enabled: false` branch of
`_enrich_message_with_transcription`. New `_format_duration` +
`_probe_audio_duration` helpers.
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py: `_max_doc_bytes` instance attribute
derived from `extra.base_url`; `local_mode` builder wiring;
dynamic "too large" message.
- tests/gateway/test_stt_config.py: covers path-surfacing with and
without an existing user message, and placeholder replacement.
- tests/gateway/test_telegram_max_doc_bytes.py: 3 cases — default 20MB
without base_url, 2GB when set, empty-string base_url keeps default.
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/telegram.md: new "Skipping STT"
subsection under Voice Messages and a full "Large Files (>20MB) via
Local Bot API Server" walkthrough (api_id/api_hash, docker-compose,
one-time `logOut` migration, `platforms.telegram.extra` config, the
`local_mode` disk-access requirement, the silent HTTP-fallback 404).
- website/docs/user-guide/features/voice-mode.md: documents the
`stt.enabled` knob in the config reference.
- `pytest tests/gateway/test_telegram_max_doc_bytes.py
tests/gateway/test_stt_config.py` → 9/9 passing.
- Verified end-to-end on a live deployment: gateway log shows
`Using custom Telegram base_url: http://...` and
`Using Telegram local_mode (read files from disk)` on startup;
voice messages above 20MB cache to disk and surface their path to
the agent.

When a user sends a message on Telegram, the incoming message is now
automatically pinned at the start of processing and unpinned when the
agent finishes its turn. This gives the user a visual indicator that
their message is being worked on, and keeps the conversation anchored.
Changes:
- telegram.py: Added pinChatMessage in on_processing_start and
unpinChatMessage in on_processing_complete. Restructured both
hooks so pin/unpin runs independently of the reactions feature
(reactions are optional; pinning is always on).
- telegram.py: Pass message_id through SessionSource so it's
available in the session context.
- session_context.py: Added HERMES_SESSION_MESSAGE_ID context var.
- run.py: Pass source.message_id through set_session_vars.
Pinning is silent (disable_notification=True) and failures are
logged at debug level without interrupting message processing.
Only the user's incoming message is pinned -- never the agent's
replies. Auto-resume events (which have no message_id) are
correctly skipped.
The gmail-triage skill's Telegram inline buttons emit callback_data of the
form `gt:<verb>:<arg>`, but `_handle_callback_query` had no `gt:` branch —
taps fell through silently and the spinner sat there until Telegram timed it
out.
Add `_handle_gmail_triage_callback`, dispatched from the existing callback
router, that:
- Authorizes the caller via the same `_is_callback_user_authorized` path as
the approval / slash-confirm / clarify handlers.
- Maps each verb to a script under `~/.hermes/scripts/gmail-triage/` and runs
it async with a 60s timeout.
- Splits verbs into one-shots (send / archive / draft / spam) — append the
confirmation and strip the keyboard so the action can't fire twice — and
sticky-state changes (mute / trust / vip ± -domain) — append the
confirmation but leave the keyboard tappable so the user can stack actions
on one email.
- On failure: toast only, keyboard preserved so the user can retry.
- Logs every callback outcome to gateway.log for debugging.
When a DM topic lane's message_thread_id is rejected by Telegram
(e.g. stale or deleted topic), send_typing now falls back to sending
the typing indicator without thread_id so it at least appears in the
main DM view, rather than being silently swallowed.
Also adds test for the fallback behavior.
When context compression triggers a mid-turn session split, source.thread_id
can be None on synthetic/recovered events. _thread_metadata_for_source then
returns None, causing the Telegram adapter to send with no message_thread_id
and the response lands in the General thread instead of the active DM topic.
Fix:
- hermes_state.py: Add get_telegram_topic_binding_by_session() for reverse
lookup by session_id (enabled by the existing UNIQUE INDEX on session_id).
- gateway/run.py: After session-split detection, if source is a Telegram DM
and source.thread_id is None, recover it from the binding via the new
method so _thread_metadata_for_source produces the correct thread routing.
- tests/: Coverage for the new lookup method and the recovery flow.
When Hermes auto-titles a session in a Telegram DM topic it currently
renames the topic itself to the generated title. That works for
operator-managed lanes (extra.dm_topics) but is disruptive for
ad-hoc Threaded-Mode topics that users name by hand — every first
exchange overwrites their chosen title.
Add gateway.platforms.telegram.extra.disable_topic_auto_rename (default
False, preserving prior behaviour). When set, both
_schedule_telegram_topic_title_rename and the underlying
_rename_telegram_topic_for_session_title short-circuit before touching
the Telegram API. Internal session titles (sessions list, TUI) keep
working unchanged.
Also bridge the legacy top-level telegram.disable_topic_auto_rename key
through to gateway.platforms.telegram.extra so users on the older
config layout don't have to migrate to enable it.
- Tests cover the runtime flag, the scheduling entry-point, and string
truthiness coercion for YAML-loaded values.
- Docs updated in messaging/telegram.md with an example block.
When users send images as documents (Telegram file picker), they were
rejected with "Unsupported document type" because SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES
only includes text/office formats. Add SUPPORTED_IMAGE_DOCUMENT_TYPES
to base.py and handle them in telegram.py before the document check.
- Add SUPPORTED_IMAGE_DOCUMENT_TYPES constant to base.py
- Add MIME reverse-lookup for image types in telegram.py
- Route image documents through cache_image_from_bytes + vision pipeline
- Handle media groups for image documents
Closes: #20128, #18620
Register Telegram bot commands across default, private, and group scopes so
the slash-command menu is available outside DMs.
Changes from review feedback:
- Add asyncio.Lock to prevent race condition in _ensure_forum_commands
- Extract MAX_COMMANDS_PER_SCOPE constant (30) to avoid magic number
- Upgrade error logging from debug->warning in forum registration
- Add tests covering lazy forum registration and concurrent safety
- Remove /start handler from this PR (separate feature)
Fixes review: needs_work (race, magic number, log levels, missing tests)
Topic-mode DM replies were fragmenting one conversation across many sessions: a Reply on a message in another topic delivered Telegram's message_thread_id for *that* topic, and #3206's strip routed plain replies to the lobby. Both pulled the user away from their current session. Fix: when topic mode is on, rewrite source.thread_id to the user's most-recent binding if the inbound id is missing/General or not a known topic. Non-topic-mode users unchanged.
send_slash_confirm() sent the raw command preview with ParseMode.MARKDOWN,
skipping the format_message() conversion applied to every other dynamic
send in the adapter. Commands with underscores, dots, brackets, or other
MarkdownV2-sensitive characters raised BadRequest: Can't parse entities;
the exception was swallowed by the outer try/except, so the confirmation
prompt silently never appeared.
Fix: wrap preview through format_message() and switch to MARKDOWN_V2,
symmetric with send_update_prompt and the callback sends fixed in
a69404052.
In Telegram "important" notifications mode (default), TelegramPlatformAdapter
sets ``disable_notification=True`` on every send unless metadata carries
``notify=True``. GatewayRunner._send_voice_reply already passes thread
metadata through to ``adapter.send_voice``, but never marks the final
auto-TTS voice reply as notify-worthy — so users with the default mode get
the final voice note delivered silently with no push notification.
Mirror the final-text path in gateway/platforms/base.py (the existing
text-response final send already adds ``metadata["notify"] = True``).
Issue #27970 Bug 2. Bug 1 (MP3 vs. native OGG voice-note) is being
addressed by existing PRs #20182 / #20878 — this PR is intentionally
scoped to the silent-delivery bug only.

The text /approve and /deny paths in gateway/run.py call
resume_typing_for_chat() after resolve_gateway_approval() succeeds, but
the Telegram inline-button (ea:*) callback in _handle_callback_query did
not. Typing is paused when the approval is sent (gateway/run.py:15658),
so without a matching resume the typing indicator stayed gone for the
remainder of a long-running turn after a button click.
Symmetry-match the text path: after a successful resolve, call
self.resume_typing_for_chat(str(query_chat_id)). Guarded by count > 0
to match /approve's "if not count" early-return — if nothing was
actually resolved, the agent thread was never unblocked, so typing
should remain paused.

When a sticky fallback IP (from DoH discovery) becomes unreachable,
the transport previously got stuck in an attempt_order that only
tried the dead IP. This prevented the gateway from recovering
until the service was restarted.
Changes:
- Always include primary DNS path (None) after the sticky IP in the
attempt_order so that a primary-path retry happens on sticky failure.
- Reset self._sticky_ip to None when the currently sticky IP hits
a connect timeout / connect error, allowing the next request to
retry from scratch.
Fixes silent Telegram disconnection when discovered fallback IPs
are transiently or permanently unreachable.
The _is_callback_user_authorized fallback returned True when
TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS was not set, allowing any Telegram user
to interact with the bot. Change to fail-closed: deny by default
unless GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS=true is explicitly set.
Fixes#24457
TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS was only checked for callback/inline-button
actions but not for inbound messages. Unauthorized users triggered an
'Unauthorized user' log warning but their messages were still processed
by the agent — a P0 security bypass (issue #23778).
Fix: add allowlist check in _should_process_message() which is called
for all message types (text, command, media, location). If the sender
is not in TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS, the message is dropped immediately
with a warning log. Empty TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS continues to allow
all users (existing behavior).
Fixes#23778
Background-process completion notifications (notify_on_complete) and
watch-pattern notifications were always delivered to the Telegram main
chat instead of the originating private-chat topic.
Hermes-created Telegram DM topic lanes only render a send when it carries
both message_thread_id and a reply anchor. The synthetic MessageEvent
injected on process completion had no message_id, so _reply_anchor_for_event
returned None and _thread_kwargs_for_send dropped message_thread_id
entirely — routing the notification to the main chat.
Capture the triggering message id at spawn time and thread it through to
the synthetic event so it can be reply-anchored back into the topic:
- session_context: add HERMES_SESSION_MESSAGE_ID context var
- telegram adapter: populate SessionSource.message_id on inbound messages
- terminal tool: persist watcher_message_id on the process session
- process registry: carry/persist message_id on watcher dicts + checkpoint
- gateway: set MessageEvent.message_id on injected notifications

When edit_message_text fails with a transient error (httpx.ConnectError,
NetworkError, server disconnected, timeouts), the progress-message sender
must not permanently set can_edit = False — that would convert a single
Telegram network hiccup into separate per-tool bubbles for the rest of the run.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py: edit_message now returns retryable=True for
transient network errors (ConnectError, NetworkError, timeouts, server
disconnects, temporarily unavailable). Permanent failures (flood control,
message-not-found, permissions) remain retryable=False.
- gateway/run.py: send_progress_messages checks result.retryable before
setting can_edit = False. Transient failures skip the fallback-send and
continue — the next edit cycle catches up with the accumulated lines.
Permanent failures (flood, message-not-found, etc.) still disable editing.
Tests: 22 new tests in test_telegram_progress_edit_transient.py covering
transient vs permanent error classification, SendResult.retryable semantics,
and the can_edit decision logic.
Fixes#27828
When a progress-message edit hits Telegram flood control (RetryAfter),
can_edit was unconditionally set to False, permanently disabling coalescing
for the rest of the run. Subsequent tool updates were posted as separate
new messages instead of updating the existing progress bubble.
Fix: only set can_edit=False for non-recoverable edit errors. On flood
control, back off by resetting _last_edit_ts so the throttle interval is
respected before the next edit attempt.
Fixes#25188
The audio-file-paths handling block at line 7334 references the variable
unconditionally, but #24879 initialized it inside the 'if event.media_urls'
block — so events without media_urls hit UnboundLocalError.
Found via test_run_agent_queued_message_does_not_treat_commentary_as_final
after PR #28478 landed.
Telegram distinguishes three kinds of audio payloads:
- message.voice → Opus/OGG voice messages → STT pipeline ✓
- message.audio → audio file attachments → bypasses STT ← was broken
- message.document (audio mime) → generic file route
**Root cause** — the inbound message routing block in gateway/run.py
matched both MessageType.VOICE *and* MessageType.AUDIO into audio_paths,
which were then fed unconditionally to _enrich_message_with_transcription.
Audio file attachments (.mp3, .m4a, etc.) were therefore auto-transcribed
instead of being treated as files, making the transcribe skill unusable
from Telegram because the path it needed was never surfaced.
**Fix**
- Introduce a new audio_file_paths list populated exclusively by
MessageType.AUDIO events.
- Narrow the audio_paths selector to MessageType.VOICE (and bare
audio/ mime-type events that are not explicitly AUDIO or DOCUMENT).
- After the STT block, inject a document-style context note for each
audio_file_path, giving the agent the file path and asking what to do
with it (consistent with how plain documents are handled).
**Tests** — 5 new tests in test_telegram_audio_vs_voice.py:
- voice message still transcribed (regression guard)
- audio attachment skips STT (core fix)
- audio attachment context note format
- STT disabled still produces file note (not STT-disabled notice)
- MessageType.AUDIO != MessageType.VOICE sanity check
Fixes#24870
The DM topic reply fallback code in send() hardcoded should_thread=True
when telegram_dm_topic_reply_fallback metadata was present, bypassing
_should_thread_reply() and ignoring reply_to_mode config. This caused
quote bubbles on every response even with reply_to_mode: 'off'.
Fix:
- Add reply_to_mode param to _reply_to_message_id_for_send() and
_thread_kwargs_for_send() classmethods
- In send(), check self._reply_to_mode != 'off' for DM topic fallback
- Suppress reply anchor and reply_to_message_id when mode is 'off'
while preserving message_thread_id for correct topic routing
- Thread reply_to_mode through all 29 call sites
Regression coverage: 10 new tests in test_telegram_reply_mode.py
covering classmethod behavior, send() integration, and backward
compatibility.
Fixes reply_to_mode: 'off' ignored by Telegram DM topic reply fallback code #23994
When Telegram clarify prompts offer long choices, mobile clients
truncate the inline button labels, making options unreadable.
Previously only the question was shown in the message body with
truncated choice text in button labels.
Fix: append the full numbered option list to the message body
so users can read complete choice text on any client. Buttons
now use short numeric labels (1, 2, ...) to avoid Telegram
truncation. The 'Other (type answer)' button is unchanged.
Long choice labels are now rendered in full (not truncated to
57 chars + '...') since they appear in the body instead of
button labels.
Closes: #27497
Skill bundles are tiny YAML files in ~/.hermes/skill-bundles/ that
group several skills under one slash command. Invoking /<bundle-name>
from any surface (CLI, TUI, dashboard, any gateway platform) loads
every referenced skill into a single combined user message.
Use cases:
- /backend-dev → loads github-code-review + test-driven-development
+ github-pr-workflow as one bundle.
- /research → loads several research skills together.
- Team task profiles shared via dotfiles.
Behavior:
- Bundles take precedence over individual skills when slugs collide.
- Missing skills are skipped with a note, not fatal.
- No system-prompt mutation — bundles generate a fresh user message
at invocation time, the same way /<skill> does. Prompt cache stays
intact.
- Works in CLI dispatch, gateway dispatch, autocomplete (CLI + TUI),
/help display.
Schema (~/.hermes/skill-bundles/<slug>.yaml):
name: backend-dev
description: Backend feature work.
skills:
- github-code-review
- test-driven-development
instruction: |
Optional extra guidance prepended to the loaded skills.
New module: agent/skill_bundles.py — load, scan, resolve, build
invocation message, save, delete. yaml.safe_load only; broken
bundles log a warning and are skipped, never raise.
New CLI subcommand: hermes bundles {list,show,create,delete,reload}.
Implementation in hermes_cli/bundles.py; wired in hermes_cli/main.py.
'bundles' added to _BUILTIN_SUBCOMMANDS so plugin discovery skips it.
New in-session slash command: /bundles lists installed bundles in
both CLI and gateway. /<bundle-name> dispatch added to CLI (cli.py)
and gateway (gateway/run.py) before the existing /<skill-name> path.
Autocomplete: SlashCommandCompleter gained an optional
skill_bundles_provider parameter that defaults to None — the prompt
shows '▣ <description> (N skills)' for bundles vs '⚡' for skills.
Tests:
- tests/agent/test_skill_bundles.py — 33 tests covering slugify,
scan/cache freshness, resolve (including underscore→hyphen
Telegram alias), build_bundle_invocation_message (loading, missing
skills, user/bundle instruction injection, dedup), save/delete,
reload diff, list sort.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_bundles.py — 8 tests for the CLI
subcommand (create/list/show/delete/reload, --force, missing
bundle errors).
- tests/gateway/test_bundles_command.py — 4 tests for the gateway
handler and bundle resolution priority.
Live E2E: verified subprocess invocations of hermes bundles
{list,create,show,reload,delete} round-trip correctly against an
isolated HERMES_HOME.
Docs:
- website/docs/user-guide/features/skills.md — new 'Skill Bundles'
section with quick example, YAML schema, management commands,
behavior notes.
- website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md — 'hermes bundles' added to
the top-level command table and given its own subcommand section.
Salvages #23790 by @thewillhuang. Adds detect_stale_running() to
the dispatcher cycle. Running tasks that have been started for longer
than dispatch_stale_timeout_seconds (default 14400 = 4h) without a
heartbeat in the last hour are auto-reclaimed to ready.
- New config kanban.dispatch_stale_timeout_seconds (default 14400, 0 disables)
- New 'stale' field on DispatchResult
- detect_stale_running() in kanban_db.py with heartbeat freshness check
- Records outcome='stale' on run close + 'stale' event; ticks failure counter
- Wires config through gateway embedded dispatcher
- Updates _cmd_dispatch verbose/JSON output and daemon logging
Resolved test-file end-of-file conflict by appending both halves.
Salvages #23772 by @thewillhuang. Adds 'review' as a valid kanban task
status and extends dispatch_once to monitor the review column as a
second dispatch source (in addition to the existing ready column).
- Adds 'review' to VALID_STATUSES
- Adds claim_review_task() — atomically transitions review → running
- Adds has_spawnable_review() — health telemetry mirror
- Extends dispatch_once with a review column dispatch loop
- Review agents get 'sdlc-review' skill auto-loaded
Resolved 2 conflicts (VALID_STATUSES merge with main's 'scheduled' state,
test file additions). Adapted claim_review_task to main's
ttl_seconds: Optional[int] = None convention (matches claim_task).
Salvages substantive part of #26490 by @aqilaziz. Detects corrupt board
DBs ("file is not a database" / "database disk image is malformed")
and disables them by fingerprint until they're repaired, instead of
flooding the gateway log with repeated logger.exception tracebacks every
tick.
Cherry-picked the substantive commit (ea5b4ec2a); the tip commit was
an unrelated _is_dir OSError fix for service-path lookup. Dropped a
small test reformat that was bundled in the same commit.
Salvages #23302 by @Bartok9. Four independent one-area fixes:
1. kanban boards delete alias now hard-deletes (not archives) — the
alias didn't carry --delete, so getattr(args, 'delete', False)
returned False. Detect boards_action=='delete' explicitly.
2. Gateway auto-title failures no longer leak as user-visible
warnings — debug-log only since they're not actionable.
3. Background process completion notification snaps truncation to
the next newline boundary, prepends a marker when content is
dropped.
4. _cprint() schedules the run_in_terminal coroutine via
asyncio.ensure_future so output isn't silently dropped from
background threads (fixes#23185 Bug A). Skips the
double-print fallback that would fire for mock paths.
Salvages #22981 by @SimbaKingjoe. Adds 'kanban.max_in_progress' config
that caps simultaneously running tasks. When the board already has N
running, dispatcher skips spawning so slow workers (local LLMs,
resource-constrained hosts) don't pile up and time out.
Threads through dispatch_once(max_in_progress=) and gateway dispatcher
config parsing with validation (warns on invalid/below-1 values).
Two Mattermost thread-related bugs:
1. _resolve_root_id() — Mattermost CRT requires root_id to be the
thread root post. Using any reply's own ID as root_id causes
'400 Invalid RootId'. Add _resolve_root_id() that walks up the
post chain via API to find the actual root, and apply it in
send(), _send_url_as_file(), and _send_local_file().
2. _progress_reply_to — The condition in run.py only checked
Platform.FEISHU, missing Mattermost entirely. This caused tool
progress messages to always land in the main channel instead of
the thread. Add Platform.MATTERMOST to the condition so
progress messages are routed to threads when reply_mode=thread.
Impact: Tool progress messages now appear in Mattermost threads
instead of flooding the main channel; thread replies no longer
fail with Invalid RootId when the reply target is itself a reply.
Three related fixes for the MEDIA:<path> extraction pipeline that
caused 'file not found' noise in platform channels:
1. run.py — tighten tool-result MEDIA regex from \S+ (any non-
whitespace) to require a path pattern with known extensions.
Prevents LLM-generated placeholder paths like
'MEDIA:/path/to/example.mp4' from being captured as real media.
2. base.py — remove the |\S+ fallback in extract_media() that
catches anything non-whitespace as a potential MEDIA path.
This was the primary cause of false positives — strings like
'' in tool output were captured as MEDIA: paths.
3. mattermost.py — replace the file-not-found error message sent
to the channel with a silent logger.warning() skip. When a
path extracted by MEDIA doesn't exist on disk, the channel
no longer gets a noisy '(file not found: ...)' message.
Impact: eliminates the persistent 'file not found' spam in
Mattermost channels caused by over-broad MEDIA regex patterns
matching non-path text in tool output.
Two related bugs in gateway/config.py prevented per-platform
gateway_restart_notification from working through config.yaml:
1. The shared-key bridging loop (load_gateway_config) omitted
'gateway_restart_notification', so the key never landed in
platform_data['extra'] even when set under e.g. 'discord:' or
'mattermost:' sections.
2. PlatformConfig.from_dict() only read gateway_restart_notification
from the top-level data dict, ignoring the 'extra' sub-dict where
bridged keys are stored.
Fix: add the key to the bridging loop, and add an 'extra' fallback
in from_dict() so that round-tripped values (YAML → bridged → extra
→ from_dict) resolve correctly.
Impact: users can now set gateway_restart_notification: false per
platform in config.yaml instead of relying on env vars or the
global platforms: block.
Two code paths call json.loads() on output from external tools without
catching JSONDecodeError. If the tool returns a non-JSON string (error
message, empty string, or None), the entire call path crashes.
1. gateway/run.py — text_to_speech_tool() result in voice reply path.
A TTS failure that returns an error string instead of JSON crashes
the voice reply handler, killing the message response entirely.
2. cron/scheduler.py — skill_view() result when loading skills for
cron jobs. A corrupted or missing skill file that returns an error
string instead of JSON crashes the cron tick, preventing all jobs
from executing that cycle.
Both fixes catch (json.JSONDecodeError, TypeError), log a warning,
and gracefully skip the failed operation instead of crashing.
When the gateway receives SIGUSR1 (graceful restart via launchd_restart),
the SIGUSR1 handler calls request_restart(via_service=True) and the
gateway shuts down cleanly with exit code 0.
However, the generated launchd plist uses KeepAlive → SuccessfulExit →
false, meaning launchd only relaunches on *non-zero* exit codes. A
clean exit(0) is treated as "successful, don't restart", so the
gateway stays down after /restart, /update, or SIGUSR1.
The systemd unit template already uses RestartForceExitStatus=75 for the
same scenario. Mirror that convention: when _restart_via_service is
True, raise SystemExit(75) so launchd's SuccessfulExit=false policy
triggers a relaunch.
Closes#28135
The dingtalk-stream SDK calls pre_start() on every registered handler
before opening the WebSocket connection. Without this method, the SDK
raises AttributeError and kills the stream connection, causing DingTalk
to be unable to connect via Stream Mode.
Plugin discovery exceptions in gateway startup (gateway/run.py) and
CLI startup (hermes_cli/main.py) are caught and logged at DEBUG
level, making them invisible at the default INFO log level.
If any plugin import fails — syntax error, missing dependency, import
cycle — operators get zero indication unless they bump the log level
to DEBUG. This makes broken plugins appear enabled but silently
non-functional.
Change both locations to logger.warning() so failures are visible at
production log levels.
Closes#28137
_deliver_kanban_artifacts used a broader _IMAGE_EXTS that included
.bmp, .tiff, and .svg. These three extensions are absent from the
equivalent set in _deliver_media_from_response (line 10661), which
intentionally routes them through send_document rather than
send_multiple_images (comment near line 10522 notes that Telegram
sendPhoto recompresses and rejects non-raster formats).
Routing .svg (XML text), .bmp, or .tiff through the photo API causes
send_multiple_images to raise on most platforms; the exception is caught
and logged as a warning, silently dropping the artifact. Aligning the
two sets ensures kanban deliverables with these extensions follow the
same send_document path as regular agent responses.
No behaviour change for .png/.jpg/.jpeg/.gif/.webp.
The WeCom adapter's _read_events() loop only handled CLOSE, CLOSED,
and ERROR websocket message types. When the server initiates a graceful
shutdown, aiohttp returns WSMsgType.CLOSING before the connection is
fully closed. This message type was not handled, causing the receive()
call to return immediately in a tight loop while self._ws.closed
remained False. The result was 100% CPU usage on the asyncio event loop.
Add WSMsgType.CLOSING to the set of terminal message types that raise
RuntimeError("WeCom websocket closed"), allowing _listen_loop() to
enter its normal reconnect backoff path.

When auxiliary compression's summary generation returns None (aux model
errored, returned non-JSON, timed out, etc.) the compressor previously
still dropped every middle message between compress_start..compress_end
and replaced them with a static 'Summary generation was unavailable'
placeholder. The session kept going but the user silently lost N turns
of context for nothing.
New behavior: on summary failure, compress() aborts entirely — returns
the input messages unchanged and sets _last_compress_aborted=True. The
existing _summary_failure_cooldown_until gate (30-60s) keeps the aux
model from being burned on every turn. Auto-compress callers detect
the no-op (len(after) == len(before)) and stop looping. The chat is
'frozen' at its current size until the next /compress or /new.
Manual /compress (CLI + gateway) now passes force=True which clears
the cooldown so users can retry immediately after an auto-abort. If
the manual retry also fails, the user gets a visible warning telling
them nothing was dropped and how to retry.
- agent/context_compressor.py: compress() gains force= kwarg; failure
branch sets _last_compress_aborted and returns messages unchanged
instead of inserting placeholder.
- run_agent.py: _compress_context() detects abort, surfaces warning,
skips session-rotation entirely, returns messages unchanged.
- cli.py + gateway/run.py: manual /compress paths pass force=True.
- gateway/run.py: hygiene + /compress handlers detect _last_compress_aborted
and emit the new 'Compression aborted' warning (gateway.compress.aborted)
instead of the old 'N historical messages were removed' message.
- locales/*.yaml: new gateway.compress.aborted key in all 16 locales.
- tests: updated to assert the abort contract (messages preserved,
compression_count not incremented, abort flag set, no placeholder
leaked). New test_force_true_bypasses_failure_cooldown covers the
manual-retry path.
The agent can now produce a chart, PDF, spreadsheet, or any other supported
file type and have it land in Slack / Discord / Telegram / WhatsApp / etc.
as a native attachment, just by mentioning the absolute path in its
response. Same primitive works for kanban-worker completions: workers
attach artifacts via kanban_complete(artifacts=[...]) and the gateway
notifier uploads them alongside the completion message.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/base.py: extract_local_files now covers PDFs, docx,
spreadsheets (xlsx/csv/json/yaml), presentations (pptx), archives
(zip/tar/gz), audio (mp3/wav/...), and html — not just images and video.
Image/video extensions still embed inline; everything else routes to
send_document via the existing dispatch partition in gateway/run.py.
- tools/kanban_tools.py + hermes_cli/kanban_db.py: kanban_complete gains
an explicit ``artifacts`` parameter. The handler stashes it in
metadata.artifacts (for downstream workers) and the kernel promotes
it onto the completed-event payload so the notifier can find it
without a second SQL round-trip.
- gateway/run.py: _kanban_notifier_watcher now calls a new helper
_deliver_kanban_artifacts after sending the completion text. The
helper reads payload.artifacts (preferred), falls back to scanning
the payload summary and task.result with extract_local_files, then
partitions images / videos / documents and uploads each via
send_multiple_images / send_video / send_document.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/deliverable-mode.md + sidebars.ts:
user-facing docs page covering the extension list, the kanban
artifacts pattern, and the MCP-for-connector-breadth recommendation.
Tests:
- tests/gateway/test_extract_local_files.py: 7 new test cases
(documents, spreadsheets, presentations, audio, archives, html,
chart-pdf canonical case). 44 passing, 0 regressions.
- tests/tools/test_kanban_tools.py: 4 new cases covering the artifacts
arg shape (list / string / merge with existing metadata / type
rejection). 17 passing.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_notify.py: 2 new cases covering full
notifier → artifact-upload path and missing-file silent-skip. 12
passing.
- E2E (real files, real kanban kernel, real BasePlatformAdapter):
worker calls kanban_complete(artifacts=[png,pdf,csv]) → metadata +
event payload land → notifier helper partitions correctly →
send_multiple_images called once with the PNG, send_document called
twice with PDF + CSV.
What's NOT in this PR (deferred to follow-ups):
- Ad-hoc "research this for two hours, ping the thread when done"
slash command — covered today by kanban subscriptions; a dedicated
slash command can ride a follow-up PR if needed.
- Setup-wizard prompt for recommended MCP servers (Notion, GitHub,
Linear, etc.) — docs page lists them; UI is a separate change.
Plan and rationale captured in ~/.hermes/docs/perplexity-computer-parity.pdf
(local doc, not shipped).
Yuanbao's QuoteContextMiddleware has a transcript-lookup fallback for
when quote.desc is empty: it scans the session transcript for the quoted
message_id and pulls ybres anchors out of its content. That fallback
works for observed (silent) group messages because the platform writer
attaches message_id (yuanbao.py:2091).
It silently fails for @bot agent-processed messages because gateway/run.py
wrote them as {role:user, content, timestamp} with no message_id, so
quoting an earlier @bot turn that contained an image/file couldn't be
resolved.
Fix: attach event.message_id to the user transcript entry at all three
write sites in gateway/run.py — the agent_failed_early branch, the
no-new-messages edge case, and the normal agent path (first user-role
entry in new_messages).
Surfaces gap reported in #27425 (loongfay) using the existing fallback
already on main; no new caches needed.

* feat(kanban): orchestrator-driven auto-decomposition on triage
Closes the core gap in the kanban system: dropping a one-liner into Triage
now decomposes it into a graph of child tasks routed to specialist
profiles by description, matching teknium's original vision ("main
orchestrator splits/creates actual tasks, doles them out to each agent").
The build
---------
- hermes_cli/profiles.py: new `description` + `description_auto` fields
on ProfileInfo, persisted in <profile_dir>/profile.yaml. Helpers
read_profile_meta / write_profile_meta. `create_profile` accepts
optional description.
- hermes_cli/profile_describer.py: new module — auto-generate a 1-2
sentence description from a profile's skills + model + name via the
auxiliary LLM (`auxiliary.profile_describer`).
- hermes_cli/main.py: new `hermes profile create --description ...`
flag; new `hermes profile describe [name] [--text ... | --auto |
--all --auto]` subcommand.
- hermes_cli/kanban_db.py: new `decompose_triage_task` atomic helper —
creates N child tasks, links the root as a child of every leaf
(root waits for the whole graph), flips root `triage -> todo` with
orchestrator assignee, records an audit comment + `decomposed` event
in a single write_txn.
- hermes_cli/kanban_decompose.py: new module — calls the auxiliary LLM
(`auxiliary.kanban_decomposer`) with the profile roster + descriptions
to produce a JSON task graph, then invokes the DB helper. Rewrites
unknown assignees to the configured `kanban.default_assignee` (or
the active default profile) so a task NEVER lands with assignee=None.
Falls back to specify-style single-task promotion when the LLM
returns `fanout: false`.
- hermes_cli/kanban.py: new `hermes kanban decompose [task_id | --all]`
CLI verb.
- hermes_cli/config.py: new DEFAULT_CONFIG keys —
kanban.orchestrator_profile, kanban.default_assignee,
kanban.auto_decompose (default True), kanban.auto_decompose_per_tick
(default 3), auxiliary.kanban_decomposer, auxiliary.profile_describer.
- gateway/run.py: kanban dispatcher watcher now runs auto-decompose
before each `_tick_once`, capped by `auto_decompose_per_tick` so a
bulk-load of triage tasks doesn't burst-spend the aux LLM.
- plugins/kanban/dashboard/plugin_api.py: new endpoints —
GET /profiles (list roster + descriptions),
PATCH /profiles/<name> (set description, user-authored),
POST /profiles/<name>/describe-auto (LLM-generate),
POST /tasks/<id>/decompose (run decomposer),
GET/PUT /orchestration (orchestrator/default-assignee/auto-decompose
pickers, with resolved fallbacks echoed back).
- plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/index.js: new OrchestrationPanel
collapsible — dropdowns for orchestrator profile and default
assignee, auto-decompose toggle, per-profile description editor with
Save and Auto-generate buttons. New ⚗ Decompose button next to
✨ Specify on triage-column task drawers.
Behavior
--------
- A task in Triage gets fanned out into a small DAG of child tasks.
Children with no internal parents flip to `ready` immediately
(parallel dispatch). Children with sibling parents wait. The root
stays alive as a parent of every child — when the whole graph
finishes, it promotes to `ready` and the orchestrator profile wakes
back up to judge completion (the "adds more tasks until done" part
of the original vision).
- `kanban.orchestrator_profile` unset -> falls back to the default
profile (whichever `hermes` launches with no -p flag).
- `kanban.default_assignee` unset -> same fallback. Tasks NEVER end
up unassigned.
- `kanban.auto_decompose=true` (default) runs the decomposer
automatically on dispatcher ticks; manual `hermes kanban decompose`
is always available.
Tests
-----
- tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_decompose_db.py — 7 tests for the
atomic DB helper (status transitions, dep graph, audit trail,
validation errors).
- tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_decompose.py — 6 tests for the
decomposer module (fanout, no-fanout fallback, unknown-assignee
rewrite, malformed-JSON resilience, no-aux-client path).
- tests/hermes_cli/test_profile_describer.py — 10 tests for
profile.yaml r/w + the LLM auto-describer (yaml corrupt tolerance,
user-vs-auto description protection, --overwrite, fallback parsing).
E2E
---
- CLI end-to-end: created profiles with descriptions, dropped a triage
task, mocked the aux LLM with a 3-task graph -> verified all three
children were created with the right assignees, the dependency
edges matched the LLM's graph, root flipped to todo gated by every
child, audit comment + `decomposed` event recorded.
- Dashboard end-to-end: started the dashboard against an isolated
HERMES_HOME, verified all four new endpoints via curl (profile
listing, PATCH for description, PUT for orchestration settings,
POST for decompose). Opened the UI in the browser, confirmed the
OrchestrationPanel renders with all three pickers + the per-profile
description editor, typed a description, clicked Save, verified
~/.hermes/profile.yaml was written. Clicked Decompose on the triage
card and confirmed the inline error message surfaced as designed
("no auxiliary client configured").
* feat(kanban): surface decompose mode (Auto/Manual) as a one-click pill
The auto/manual toggle already existed as kanban.auto_decompose (default
true), but it was buried inside the collapsed Orchestration settings
panel — users couldn't tell at a glance which mode they were in. This
hoists it to a pill at the top of the kanban page so the state is always
visible and one click flips it.
UX
- New "⚗ Decompose: AUTO|MANUAL" pill in the kanban header. Emerald
styling when Auto is on (the default), muted/gray when Manual.
- Pill is visible both in the collapsed AND expanded Orchestration
settings views so context is preserved when the user opens the panel.
- Tooltip explains both states + what clicking does.
- Renamed the in-panel "Auto-decompose on triage / Enabled" checkbox
to "Decompose mode / Auto (default) | Manual" for language parity
with the pill.
Behavior preserved
- Default remains Auto (kanban.auto_decompose=true).
- Manual mode restores pre-PR behavior: triage tasks stay in triage
until the user clicks ⚗ Decompose on each card (or runs
`hermes kanban decompose <id>`).
Implementation
- plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/index.js: load /orchestration on mount
(not just on expand) so the collapsed pill reflects real state.
Render mode pill in both collapsed and expanded headers. Reuses the
existing PUT /api/plugins/kanban/orchestration endpoint — no new
backend, no new tests required.
E2E verified
- Pill renders as "⚗ Decompose: AUTO" on page load (default).
- One click flips to "⚗ Decompose: MANUAL" with muted styling.
- config.yaml on disk shows auto_decompose: false after the flip.
- Second click round-trips back to Auto; config.yaml flips to true.
* feat(kanban): rename mode pill to "Orchestration: Auto/Manual"
Per Teknium feedback — "Decompose" was too implementation-specific.
"Orchestration" is the user-facing concept (the whole pitch is the
orchestrator profile routing work), and the pill is the front door to it.
- Pill text: "Orchestration: Auto" / "Orchestration: Manual" (title case,
no ⚗ prefix, no SHOUTY-CAPS for the mode value)
- In-panel checkbox label: "Orchestration mode" (was "Decompose mode")
- Tooltips updated to match
- No behavior change
* docs(kanban): document decompose, profile descriptions, orchestration mode
Brings the docs site up to parity with the PR. English build verified
locally (npx docusaurus build --locale en) — clean, no new broken links
or anchors. Pre-existing broken-link warnings (rl-training, llms.txt,
step-by-step-checklist, fallback-model) untouched.
- website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md
+ `hermes kanban decompose` action row in the action table, with
pointer to the Auto vs Manual orchestration section.
- website/docs/reference/profile-commands.md
+ `--description "<text>"` flag on `hermes profile create`.
+ Full `hermes profile describe` section: read, --text, --auto,
--overwrite, --all flags with examples.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md (the big one)
+ Triage column intro rewritten around the Auto-decompose default
behavior, with pointer to the new Auto vs Manual section.
+ Status action row updated to mention both ⚗ Decompose and
✨ Specify on triage cards.
+ New "Auto vs Manual orchestration" section explaining the two
modes, how to flip them (pill, config), how routing-by-description
works, the no-None-assignee guarantee, plus a config knob table
(auto_decompose, auto_decompose_per_tick, orchestrator_profile,
default_assignee) and the two new auxiliary slots
(kanban_decomposer, profile_describer).
+ REST surface table gains 6 new endpoint rows: /tasks/:id/decompose,
/profiles (GET), /profiles/:name (PATCH), /profiles/:name/describe-auto,
/orchestration (GET + PUT).
- website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban-tutorial.md
+ Triage column blurb updated for Auto by default + Manual via the
pill, with cross-link to the Auto vs Manual orchestration section.
- website/docs/user-guide/profiles.md
+ Blank-profile flow now mentions --description and points to the
kanban routing model for context.
- website/docs/user-guide/configuration.md
+ `kanban_decomposer` and `profile_describer` added to the
`hermes model -> Configure auxiliary models` menu listing.
The /restart command used a detached subprocess approach to restart
the gateway. In Docker, when the gateway process exits, tini (PID 1)
also exits, causing Docker to stop the container and kill the detached
helper before it can restart the gateway. This made /restart effectively
a /shutdown in containerized deployments.
Detect Docker (/.dockerenv) and Podman (/run/.containerenv) containers
and use the service restart path (exit code 75) instead, letting the
container restart policy handle the actual restart.
Note: requires restart policy that restarts on non-zero exit (e.g.
unless-stopped or on-failure).
Telegram clears the typing state when a new message is delivered.
When the agent sends intermediate progress messages (like 'Checking:'),
the '...typing' bubble disappears immediately and doesn't return until
the next keepalive tick (up to 2s later). This makes Hermes appear
unresponsive during multi-tool operations.
Fix: call send_typing() immediately after successful message delivery
to restart the typing indicator without waiting for the next keepalive tick.
Fixes#25836
Six days after #23937 (608 fixes) the codebase had accumulated 241 new
PLR6201 violations. Same mechanical `x in (...)` → `x in {...}` fix,
same zero-risk profile: set lookup is O(1) vs O(n) for tuple and the
two are semantically equivalent for hashable scalar membership tests.
All 241 instances fixed via `ruff check --select PLR6201 --fix
--unsafe-fixes`, zero remaining. Every changed value is a hashable
scalar (str/int/None/enum/signal); no risk of unhashable runtime
errors. No behavior change.
Test plan:
- 119 files changed, +244/-244 (net zero) — exactly one-line edits
- `ruff check` clean afterward
- Compile checks pass on the largest touched files (cli.py, run_agent.py,
gateway/run.py, gateway/platforms/discord.py, model_tools.py)
- Subset broad test run on tests/gateway/ tests/hermes_cli/ tests/agent/
tests/tools/: 18187 passed, 59 pre-existing failures (verified against
origin/main with the same shape — identical failure count, identical
category — all xdist test-order flakes unrelated to this change)
Follows the same template as PR #23937 ([tracker: #23972](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/23972)).
The 5-second startup-grace filter in _on_room_message silently drops
events where event_ts < startup_ts - 5. When the host clock is set
ahead of real time, the comparison flips against every live event and
the bot 'connects but never replies' — exactly the symptom in #12614.
Reporter Schnurzel700 chased this for several weeks before tracing it
to their Debian VM's clock being out of sync. The current /1000.0
millisecond->second conversion is correct (mautrix returns ms); the
failure mode is purely environmental.
Add a one-shot WARNING that fires when:
- we are >30s past startup (initial-sync replay window closed), AND
- 3 consecutive drops share the same skew within 60s (a constant
clock offset, not varied-age backfill from an invited room).
State is reset in connect() so reconnects after fixing NTP rearm the
detector. Includes the NTP fix instruction in the warning message
itself and a new Troubleshooting entry in the Matrix docs.
5 new tests cover the happy path, initial-sync backfill, under-
threshold drops, varied-age backfill, and the reconnect rearm path.
Refactor the inlined `re.sub(...)[:4000].strip()` cleanup at the
auto-TTS site in `_process_message_background` into an overridable
method `BasePlatformAdapter.prepare_tts_text(text: str) -> str`.
The default implementation is byte-identical to the previous inline
expression — strip `* _ \` # [ ] ( )` and truncate to 4000 chars — so
every existing adapter (Telegram, Discord, Slack, Matrix, IRC, etc.)
gets exactly the same behaviour as before. Zero behaviour change for
any consumer that doesn't override the method.
Why add the hook: voice-first platform adapters need stricter
cleanup than text-bubble platforms. The default strips a handful of
markdown sigils, which is fine when the output goes into a Discord
embed or a Telegram message bubble — but read aloud by a TTS engine,
URLs (`https://example.com/foo`), fenced code blocks, file paths
(`/Users/x/foo.py`), and `MEDIA:` tags turn into long sequences of
unintelligible characters. With this hook an adapter can drop those
spans before TTS while leaving the data-channel transcript intact
for visual rendering.
Without the hook, voice adapters have to either
- duplicate the auto-TTS flow inside their own `handle_response`
pipeline, which means re-implementing the entire `extract_media`,
`extract_images`, `extract_local_files`, attachment routing and
error-handling sequence in `_process_message_background`, or
- live with TTS speaking URLs character-by-character.
Both are worse than a 7-line method addition.
Example consumer:
https://github.com/kortexa-ai/hermes-livekit — LiveKit WebRTC voice
gateway plugin. Its `LiveKitAdapter.prepare_tts_text()` additionally
strips fenced code blocks, inline code, URLs, file paths, and
`MEDIA:` tags before TTS synthesis, while the full response still
reaches connected clients via the data channel. Drop-in installable
via `pip install git+https://github.com/kortexa-ai/hermes-livekit.git`.
Carved out of #3894 (LiveKit WebRTC gateway PR) so the generic hook
can land independently of the LiveKit platform itself.
aiohttp.ClientSession defaults to trust_env=False, which silently ignores
HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, and ALL_PROXY environment variables. Users behind
a corporate or network proxy cannot reach external APIs on any of these
platforms — all outbound requests fail with connection errors.
Symmetric with wecom.py (line 276), weixin.py (lines 1055/1268/1274), and
matrix.py (no-proxy path) which already set this flag. Complements the
open LINE fix (#26635) with the remaining gateway and plugin adapters.
Changed:
- gateway/platforms/sms.py: persistent Twilio session (connect) + fallback
session (send) — both hit https://api.twilio.com
- gateway/platforms/slack.py: ephemeral response_url POST session —
hits https://hooks.slack.com/... callback URLs
- plugins/platforms/teams/adapter.py: standalone send session —
hits login.microsoftonline.com (token) + Bot Framework service URL
- plugins/platforms/google_chat/adapter.py: standalone send session —
hits https://chat.googleapis.com/v1/...
WhatsApp sessions are excluded: they connect to http://127.0.0.1:{port}
(local bridge) and must not be routed through a system proxy.
When /goal loop generates synthetic MessageEvents (goal continuations,
status notices), the reply anchor is unavailable (message_id=None). For
Telegram DM topic lanes, the Telegram adapter requires
direct_messages_topic_id to route messages correctly; without it, the
adapter falls back to message_thread_id=None, sending messages to the
root 'All Messages' thread instead of the active topic lane.
The fix includes direct_messages_topic_id in thread metadata for all
non-General Telegram DM topics, ensuring queued/synthetic messages are
delivered to the correct thread even when no reply anchor exists.
The gateway already accepts plain-text config files (.ini, .cfg) and
structured formats (.json, .yaml, .toml) as documents, but not common
source-file extensions. Sending a .ts/.py/.sh file currently requires
renaming it to .txt first.
Adds .ts, .py, .sh as text/plain, consistent with the existing
.ini/.cfg entries.

- Remove unused from tools/tts_tool.py (dead code)
- Move _BUILTIN_DELIVER_PLATFORMS set from send() method to module
scope in gateway/platforms/webhook.py to avoid reallocation on
every call
The Discord adapter silently dropped any attachment whose extension wasn't
in the SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES allowlist (PDF, text family, zip, office).
Users uploading .wav / .bin / other unrecognized formats saw nothing in
their conversation — the file got logged as 'Unsupported document type'
and discarded before the agent ever saw it.
Add discord.allow_any_attachment (default false) to bypass the allowlist.
When on:
- Any file is downloaded, cached under ~/.hermes/cache/documents/, and
surfaced as a DOCUMENT-typed event with application/octet-stream MIME
- gateway/run.py already emits a context note with the cached path,
auto-translated via to_agent_visible_cache_path() for Docker/Modal
sandboxed terminals
- File body is NOT inlined — only the path — so binary uploads don't
blow up the context window
- Allowlisted text formats (.txt/.md/.log) keep their 100 KiB inline
behavior unchanged
Also adds discord.max_attachment_bytes (default 32 MiB matches the
historical hardcoded cap; 0 = unlimited) since users opting into arbitrary
types may want to raise the cap. The whole attachment is held in memory
while being cached, so unlimited carries a real memory cost.
Env overrides: DISCORD_ALLOW_ANY_ATTACHMENT, DISCORD_MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES.
Discord-only by deliberate scope. Telegram has hard 20 MB API limits and
Slack has its own caps — extending the same flag there is a separate
follow-up if/when requested.
Adds a pure-local recap of recent session activity — turn counts,
tools used, files touched, last user ask, last assistant reply —
appended to the existing /status output. Useful when juggling multiple
sessions and you want a one-glance reminder of where this one left off.
Inspired by Claude Code 2.1.114's /recap, but folded into /status so
we don't add a 6th info command. Pure local computation: no LLM call,
no auxiliary model, no prompt-cache invalidation, instant and free.
Salvage of #18587 — kept the shared hermes_cli.session_recap.build_recap
helper and its 13 unit tests, dropped the /recap slash command +
ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS entry + Level-2 bypass since /status
already covers both surfaces.
Tailored to hermes-agent's tool vocabulary: file-editing tools
(patch, write_file, read_file, skill_manage, skill_view) surface
touched paths; tool-call counts highlight which classes of work
drove the session.

Emit a grep-friendly '[MEMORY] rss=...MB ...' line in agent.log /
gateway.log every N minutes (default 5) so slow leaks in the long-lived
gateway process show up as a time series. Based on
https://github.com/cline/cline/pull/10343
(src/standalone/memory-monitor.ts).
- gateway/memory_monitor.py: new module. Daemon thread, baseline on
start, final snapshot on stop. Uses resource.getrusage() (stdlib)
first, falls back to psutil, disables itself with one WARNING if
neither is available.
- gateway/run.py: start monitor right after setup_logging() in
start_gateway(); stop it in the shutdown block next to MCP teardown.
- hermes_cli/config.py: logging.memory_monitor { enabled, interval_seconds }
defaults under the existing logging section.
- tests/gateway/test_memory_monitor.py: 10 unit tests covering format,
baseline/shutdown snapshots, double-start noop, periodic timer,
daemon thread invariant, and unavailable-RSS warn-and-skip path.
Adapted from TypeScript/Node to Python (threading.Event-based daemon
thread instead of setInterval/unref), added Python-specific gc + thread
counts to the log line (handier than ext/arrayBuffers for diagnosing
Python gateway leaks), and gated behind a config.yaml toggle so users
can silence the periodic line if they want.
No heap-snapshot-on-OOM equivalent — CPython doesn't have V8's
--heapsnapshot-near-heap-limit; tracemalloc would be the Python
equivalent but adds non-trivial overhead, so leaving that out.
Port from qwibitai/nanoclaw#1962: modern Signal V2-only groups surface on
dataMessage.groupV2.id, not groupInfo.groupId. signal-cli versions differ
in which field they expose for V2 groups — some forward the underlying
libsignal envelope verbatim (groupV2), others normalize everything into
groupInfo. Without a groupV2 read, V2-only groups appear as DMs because
groupInfo is undefined and the adapter misroutes them to the sender's
DM session.
Reads groupV2.id first, falls back to groupInfo.groupId. Also hardens
chat_name extraction against non-dict groupInfo payloads (crashed with
AttributeError under malformed envelopes).
6 new tests cover V2 routing, V1 legacy compatibility, V2-preferred
precedence, no-group DM path, allowlist enforcement, and malformed
payloads.
When the agent is running and the user sends multiple TEXT messages in
rapid succession, base.py's active-session branch stored the pending
event as a single-slot replacement:
self._pending_messages[session_key] = event
Three rapid messages A, B, C landed as: A (interrupts), B (replaces A
before consumer reads), C (replaces B). Only C reached the next turn —
A and B were silently dropped. This is the symptom in #4469.
Route the follow-up through merge_pending_message_event(..., merge_text=True)
so TEXT events accumulate into the existing pending event's text instead
of clobbering it. Photo and media bursts already merged through the same
helper; this just extends the merge_text path (already used by the
Telegram bursty-grace branch in gateway/run.py) to all platforms.
Test exercises BasePlatformAdapter.handle_message directly with the
session marked active and asserts three rapid TEXT events merge to
'part two\\npart three' rather than dropping the middle message.
Sanity-checked the test would fail without the fix.
Credits @devorun for the original investigation and analysis in #4491
that surfaced the underlying queue handling, though their fix targeted
GatewayRunner._pending_messages which is now dead state on main.
Stop the gateway from exiting (or systemd-restart-looping) when a single
messaging adapter fails at startup or runtime. A misconfigured WhatsApp
(npm install timeout, unpaired bridge, missing creds.json) used to take
the entire gateway down, killing cron jobs and any other connected
platforms with it.
Changes:
• Startup (gateway/run.py): when connected_count==0 but the only
errors are retryable, log a degraded-state warning and keep the
gateway alive instead of returning False. Reconnect watcher then
recovers platforms as their underlying problem clears.
• Runtime (gateway/run.py _handle_adapter_fatal_error): when the last
adapter goes down with a retryable error and is queued for
reconnection, stay alive instead of exit-with-failure. Previously
this triggered systemd Restart=on-failure, which created infinite
restart loops on persistent retryable failures (proxy outage,
repeated bridge crashes).
• Reconnect watcher (gateway/run.py _platform_reconnect_watcher):
replace the 20-attempt hard drop with a circuit-breaker pause.
After _PAUSE_AFTER_FAILURES (10) consecutive retryable failures, the
platform stays in _failed_platforms with paused=True so the watcher
skips it but the operator can still see and resume it. Non-retryable
errors still drop out of the queue immediately. Resolves#17063
(gateway giving up on Telegram after 20 attempts).
• WhatsApp preflight (gateway/platforms/whatsapp.py): refuse to start
the Node bridge when creds.json is missing. Sets a non-retryable
whatsapp_not_paired fatal error so the watcher drops it cleanly
with a single 'run hermes whatsapp' log line instead of paying the
30s bridge bootstrap timeout on every gateway start.
• WhatsApp setup ordering (hermes_cli/main.py cmd_whatsapp): only set
WHATSAPP_ENABLED=true once pairing actually succeeds. Previously
the wizard wrote the env var at step 2 (before npm install and QR
pairing), so any Ctrl+C left .env claiming WhatsApp was ready when
the bridge had no creds.json. Also propagate the env var when the
user keeps an existing pairing on a re-run.
• /platform slash command (hermes_cli/commands.py + gateway/run.py):
new gateway-only command for manual circuit-breaker control.
/platform list — show connected + failed/paused platforms
/platform pause <name> — silence a known-broken platform
/platform resume <name> — re-queue a paused platform
Tests:
• New: pause/resume helpers, /platform list|pause|resume command,
WhatsApp creds.json preflight, WhatsApp setup ordering.
• Updated: stale assertions that codified the old 'exit and let
systemd restart' behavior in test_runner_fatal_adapter.py,
test_runner_startup_failures.py, and test_platform_reconnect.py
(the 20-attempt give-up test became a circuit-breaker pause test).
5488 tests pass in tests/gateway/.
Wraps every sync->async coroutine-scheduling site in the codebase with a
new agent.async_utils.safe_schedule_threadsafe() helper that closes the
coroutine on scheduling failure (closed loop, shutdown race, etc.)
instead of leaking it as 'coroutine was never awaited' RuntimeWarnings
plus reference leaks.
22 production call sites migrated across the codebase:
- acp_adapter/events.py, acp_adapter/permissions.py
- agent/lsp/manager.py
- cron/scheduler.py (media + text delivery paths)
- gateway/platforms/feishu.py (5 sites, via existing _submit_on_loop helper
which now delegates to safe_schedule_threadsafe)
- gateway/run.py (10 sites: telegram rename, agent:step hook, status
callback, interim+bg-review, clarify send, exec-approval button+text,
temp-bubble cleanup, channel-directory refresh)
- plugins/memory/hindsight, plugins/platforms/google_chat
- tools/browser_supervisor.py (3), browser_cdp_tool.py,
computer_use/cua_backend.py, slash_confirm.py
- tools/environments/modal.py (_AsyncWorker)
- tools/mcp_tool.py (2 + 8 _run_on_mcp_loop callers converted to
factory-style so the coroutine is never constructed on a dead loop)
- tui_gateway/ws.py
Tests: new tests/agent/test_async_utils.py covers helper behavior under
live loop, dead loop, None loop, and scheduling exceptions. Regression
tests added at three PR-original sites (acp events, acp permissions,
mcp loop runner) mirroring contributor's intent.
Live-tested end-to-end:
- Helper stress test: 1500 schedules across live/dead/race scenarios,
zero leaked coroutines
- Race exercised: 5000 schedules with loop killed mid-flight, 100 ok /
4900 None returns, zero leaks
- hermes chat -q with terminal tool call (exercises step_callback bridge)
- MCP probe against failing subprocess servers + factory path
- Real gateway daemon boot + SIGINT shutdown across multiple platform
adapter inits
- WSTransport 100 live + 50 dead-loop writes
- Cron delivery path live + dead loop
Salvages PR #2657 — adopts contributor's intent over a much wider site
list and a single centralized helper instead of inline try/except at
each site. 3 of the original PR's 6 sites no longer exist on main
(environments/patches.py deleted, DingTalk refactored to native async);
the equivalent fix lives in tools/environments/modal.py instead.

When a user sends a Slack message like '/hermes ' (trailing whitespace
after the slash) the legacy subcommand router hit `text.split()[0]` with
a truthy-but-whitespace-only `text`. `' '.split()` returns `[]` →
IndexError, blowing up the slash handler before fallthrough to `/help`.
Switch to a two-step guard that materializes the parts list first and
indexes only if non-empty.
Salvaged from PR #2752 by @nidhi-singh02. The PR's other two hunks
(`tools/file_operations.py`, `agent/anthropic_adapter.py`) are
unreachable in current code — `LINTERS` is a hardcoded constant dict
with no empty values, and the anthropic version-detection site is
already guarded by a `result.stdout.strip()` truthy check — so only the
slack hunk is taken.

ResponseStore.put() and .delete() now remove conversations rows that
reference evicted or deleted response IDs, preventing 404 errors when
a conversation name is reused after its backing response was purged.

When a non-Anthropic provider (e.g. Morpheus proxy) returns a 429 with
`{"error": "Too Many Requests"}` instead of the expected
`{"error": {"type": ...}}` dict, _err_body.json().get("error", {})
returns the raw string and the next .get("type") line crashes with
AttributeError, taking down the message handler.
Guard with isinstance(_err_json, dict) so non-dict error bodies fall
through to the generic rate-limit hint.
Salvaged from PR #2587 by @KiraKatana. The PR's fallback-config
`base_url`/`api_key_env` fix was already implemented independently

was_auto_reset, auto_reset_reason, and reset_had_activity were not
included in SessionEntry.to_dict() / from_dict(), so a gateway restart
between session expiry and the user's next message would silently drop
the auto-reset notification and context note.
Add the three fields to the serialization roundtrip with safe defaults
(False / None / False) so existing sessions.json files load cleanly.
Add three roundtrip tests to test_session_reset_notify.py.
When a user quotes a file message (type=3) and @bot, the quote's desc field
only contains the filename without a ybres:// resource reference. The existing
QuoteContextMiddleware only extracted media refs from desc using the ybres regex,
which always returned empty for file quotes.
Fix: add a transcript lookup fallback in QuoteContextMiddleware.handle() —
when quote_media_refs is empty but reply_to_message_id is set, search the
session transcript for the quoted message_id and extract ybres anchors from
its content.
Also fix message_type classification: when quote media resolves non-image files,
override message_type to DOCUMENT so gateway/run.py's document injection logic
properly prepends the file path and content for the agent.
Follow-up to snav's PR #25463 contribution: flip default to on, broaden
scope so backfill fires whenever require_mention gates the bot (not just
shared-session channels).
Why:
- The mention-gate creates a session-transcript gap regardless of whether
the channel is shared or per-user. In per-user sessions, Alice's session
is still missing other participants' messages and her own pre-mention
messages — backfill fills both gaps.
- Threads naturally scope to thread-only history because discord.py's
channel.history() on a thread returns only that thread's messages.
- DMs still skip — every DM triggers the bot, so the session transcript
is already complete.
Changes:
- hermes_cli/config.py: discord.history_backfill default → true
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: drop the _is_shared gate, keep _is_dm
skip and _needed_mention gate; env var DISCORD_HISTORY_BACKFILL
default → 'true'
- cli-config.yaml.example + website docs: update defaults and prose;
add the DISCORD_HISTORY_BACKFILL / _LIMIT env var rows that were
documented in the PR description but missing from the env-var table
- tests/gateway/test_discord_free_response.py:
- flip test_discord_per_user_channel_does_not_backfill →
test_discord_per_user_channel_backfills_too (new behavior)
- add test_discord_dm_does_not_backfill (DM skip is invariant)
- give FakeThread a no-op history() so existing thread tests don't hit
a fake discord.Forbidden when backfill now fires on threads too
Tests: 160/160 in target files; 400/400 across all tests/gateway/ -k discord.
Adds optional channel-context backfill for Discord shared-channel sessions
so the agent can see recent messages it missed between its own turns
(typically when require_mention=true filters out most traffic).
Previously the agent only saw the @mention message that triggered it, which
led to disorienting replies in active multi-user channels where the
conversation context was invisible. With backfill enabled, a configurable
number of recent messages are fetched per-turn and prepended to the trigger
message as a context block, kept separate from sender-prefix logic so
attribution remains clean.
This re-opens the work from #13063 (approved by @OutThisLife on 2026-04-20,
closed when I closed the branch to address the simpolism:main head-branch
issue plus an ordering bug I caught later in live use). Filing against the
freshly-rewritten problem statement in #13054 so the design is grounded in
the failure mode rather than the implementation shape.
The implementation follows the **push-mode last-self-anchored** design from
the two options laid out in #13054. See the issue for the trade-off
discussion vs pull-mode (#13120 was an earlier closed PR using that shape).
Treating this as a reference implementation — happy to rewrite as
last-trigger anchoring or as a hybrid with #13120 if maintainers prefer.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/discord.py:
- new `_discord_history_backfill()` / `_discord_history_backfill_limit()`
helpers (config.extra > env > default), mirroring the existing
`_discord_require_mention()` shape
- new `_fetch_channel_context()` that scans `channel.history()` backwards
from the trigger to the bot's last message (or limit), formats as
`[Recent channel messages] / [name] msg / ...`, respects DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS,
skips system messages
- per-channel `_last_self_message_id` cache to narrow the fetch window
on hot paths (avoids full history scan when the bot has spoken recently)
- **IMPORTANT**: passes `oldest_first=False` explicitly to `channel.history()`.
discord.py 2.x silently flips the default to True when `after=` is supplied,
which would select the EARLIEST N messages after our last response instead
of the LATEST N before the trigger. In high-traffic windows this would
return stale tool traces and drop the actual final answer the user is
asking about. See regression test below. Caught in live use during a
Codex tool-trace burst on May 13 2026.
- gateway/config.py: discord_history_backfill + discord_history_backfill_limit
settings + yaml→env bridge
- gateway/platforms/base.py: channel_context field on MessageEvent
- gateway/run.py: prepend channel_context after sender-prefix so the
[sender name] tag applies to the trigger message alone, not to the backfill
- hermes_cli/config.py: defaults for new discord.history_backfill and
discord.history_backfill_limit keys

research server for the past three weeks.
Fixes#13054
Supersedes #13063 (closed)
When the stream consumer's got_done handler successfully delivers the
final response content via _send_or_edit but the subsequent edit
(e.g. cursor removal) fails, final_response_sent remains False even
though the user has already received the final answer. The gateway's
fallback send path then re-delivers the same content, causing the
user to see the response twice on Telegram.
Introduce a new _final_content_delivered flag on the stream consumer,
set by the got_done handler when the final content has reached the
user. The _run_agent suppression logic now treats this flag as an
additional signal (alongside final_response_sent and
response_previewed) that final delivery is already complete.
This preserves the existing behavior for intermediate-text-only
streams (where already_sent=True but no final content has been
delivered) — those still receive the gateway's fallback send, matching
the test expectation in test_partial_stream_output_does_not_set_already_sent.
Adds TestFinalContentDeliveredSuppression with two cases covering
both the suppression (content delivered + edit failed) and the
non-suppression (intermediate text only) branches.
`hermes config set gateway.streaming.*` writes the streaming block
nested under a `gateway:` key in config.yaml, but the config loader
only checked for a top-level `streaming:` key — silently ignoring
the nested variant.
Fall back to `yaml_cfg['gateway']['streaming']` when the top-level
key is absent, matching the pattern already used for other nested
config sections.
Closes#25676
When the final streamed text is identical to the last plain-text edit,
stream_consumer._send_or_edit short-circuits and never calls
adapter.edit_message(finalize=True). For Telegram, this skips the
plain-text → MarkdownV2 conversion, leaving raw Markdown syntax visible
to the user.
Set REQUIRES_EDIT_FINALIZE = True on TelegramAdapter so the finalize
edit is always delivered, matching the existing DingTalk pattern.
Fixes#25710
WhatsApp pseudo-chats (Status updates / Stories, Channels / Newsletters,
broadcast lists) were being routed through the full agent pipeline. A
user's gateway.log showed the agent replying to a contact's Story
('status@broadcast') with 345 chars plus title-generation cost, which
also shows up in the contact's status feed.
Drop these JIDs at _should_process_message() before the policy gate so
they're filtered regardless of dm_policy or allowlist state. Covers:
- status@broadcast (Stories)
- *@newsletter (Channels)
- *@broadcast (broadcast lists, future-proofing)
The bridge.js already filters these on the fromMe outbound path, but
inbound events on self-chat mode skipped that check.
Tests:
- status@broadcast dropped on open policy
- broadcast filter wins over allowlisted senders
- real DMs still pass through
- helper unit cases (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant)
26/26 tests/gateway/test_whatsapp_group_gating.py pass; 59/59 adjacent
WhatsApp test suites pass.
When the gateway spawned a background agent (e.g. for delegation), media
URLs and types from the originating message weren't forwarded — the bg
agent saw the prompt but no attached images. Vision-enabled tasks
effectively lost their inputs.
Forwards media_urls/media_types through the bg-task spawn path and
runs the same vision-enrichment step the main flow uses, so the bg
agent gets image descriptions inlined into its prompt.
Closes#25614.
Salvage of #25603 by @oxngon (manually re-applied — original branch
was severely stale against current main).
The cherry-picked PR over-indented the edit_message_text block for
the mm: (model selected → switch) success path so the confirmation
edit lived inside the preceding 'except Exception as exc' branch and
only fired when the callback raised. Dedent the try/except back to
12-space indent so it runs after the callback succeeds, restoring
the original flow that removes the inline buttons and shows the
'Switched to ...' confirmation.
Add a regression test (test_model_selected_edits_message_on_success)
that asserts edit_message_text is awaited and the result text is
routed through format_message (MARKDOWN_V2 + backtick survival).
Add phuongvm to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
Use MarkdownV2 formatting for Telegram callback follow-ups and interactive prompts where dynamic names or user text can break legacy Markdown parsing. Add regression coverage for reload-mcp, model picker, approval callbacks, and update prompts.
Brings Discord to parity with Telegram on the clarify tool's interactive
UX. Overrides BasePlatformAdapter.send_clarify on DiscordAdapter to attach
a button view when choices are present.
- ClarifyChoiceView: one discord.ui.Button per choice (max 24, Discord's
25-component view cap leaves one slot for Other) plus a final
'Other (type answer)' button.
- Numeric click -> tools.clarify_gateway.resolve_gateway_clarify(
clarify_id, choice_text) using the canonical choice text from the
gateway entry (falls back to the button label if the entry vanished).
- Other click -> tools.clarify_gateway.mark_awaiting_text(clarify_id) so
the gateway's text-intercept captures the next user message in this
session as the response.
- Auth via the shared _component_check_auth helper (same OR-semantics as
ExecApprovalView / SlashConfirmView / UpdatePromptView / ModelPickerView).
- Open-ended (no choices) path renders the prompt as a plain embed and
relies on the existing text-intercept resolution.
- Single-use: first valid click disables every button and updates the
embed footer with who answered and what they chose.
No changes to BasePlatformAdapter.send_clarify or the gateway's
clarify_callback wiring -- the existing scaffolding already drives all
adapters; Discord just inherits the default text fallback today and gains
buttons by virtue of this override.
Test conftest extended: _FakeEmbed gains add_field() / set_footer() stubs
so tests can construct embedded views without monkey-patching per-test.
Original PR: #19249 by @LeonSGP43. This is a reshape of the contributor's
work onto current main's clarify infrastructure (clarify_id + entry-based
resolution shared with Telegram, instead of a parallel on_answer-closure
mechanism). The button view structure and UX shape are preserved.
Tests: 14 new tests in tests/gateway/test_discord_clarify_buttons.py.
391/391 existing Discord gateway tests still pass.

The Feishu adapter wrapped lark-oapi's Connect() callable to inject
ping_interval/ping_timeout overrides, but made the wrapper async. The
underlying library uses Connect() as an async context manager (async
with Connect(...) as ws:), which requires the call itself to be sync
and return an AsyncContextManager — making it async meant the wrapper
was awaited eagerly and ws never bound.
Restoring the sync wrapper preserves the protocol while still injecting
the overrides.
Salvage of #25388 by @pearjelly (manually re-applied — original branch
was severely stale against current main).
- _read_process_cmdline: /proc and 'ps' are unavailable on Windows,
so process cmdline was always empty. Add psutil fallback (already
a hard dependency used by _pid_exists in the same module).
- _record_looks_like_gateway: argv paths use backslashes on Windows
but patterns use forward slashes/dots, so the fallback record check
always failed. Normalize backslashes to forward slashes before
matching.
Together these caused get_running_pid() to return None on Windows
even when the gateway process is alive, making the dashboard report
gateway as 'stopped' despite it functioning normally.
Discord introduced message_snapshots for forwarded messages — text and
attachments live inside snap.content / snap.attachments rather than on
the parent message. _handle_message wasn't reading them, so forwards
showed up empty.
Defensively extracts snapshot text (when raw_content is empty) and
appends snapshot attachments to the working all_attachments list used
for type detection and media routing. hasattr/getattr guards keep this
safe on older discord.py installs without the field.
Salvage of #25462 by @1RB (manually re-applied — original branch was
stale against current main).
* feat(goals): /subgoal — user-added criteria appended to active /goal
Layers a /subgoal command on top of the existing freeform Ralph judge
loop. The user can append extra criteria mid-loop; the judge factors
them into its done/continue verdict and the continuation prompt
surfaces them to the agent. No new tool, no agent self-judging — the
existing judge model just sees a richer prompt.
Forms:
/subgoal show current subgoals
/subgoal <text> append a criterion
/subgoal remove <n> drop subgoal n (1-based)
/subgoal clear wipe all subgoals
How it integrates:
- GoalState gains `subgoals: List[str]` (default []), backwards-compat
for existing state_meta rows.
- judge_goal accepts an optional subgoals kwarg; non-empty switches to
JUDGE_USER_PROMPT_WITH_SUBGOALS_TEMPLATE which lists them as
numbered criteria and asks 'is the goal AND every additional
criterion satisfied?'
- next_continuation_prompt picks CONTINUATION_PROMPT_WITH_SUBGOALS_TEMPLATE
when non-empty so the agent sees what to target.
- /subgoal is allowed mid-run on the gateway since it only touches the
state the judge reads at turn boundary — no race with the running
turn.
- Status line shows '... , N subgoals' when present.
Surface:
- hermes_cli/goals.py — field, prompt blocks, manager methods, judge weave
- hermes_cli/commands.py — /subgoal CommandDef
- cli.py — _handle_subgoal_command
- gateway/run.py — _handle_subgoal_command + mid-run dispatch
- tests/hermes_cli/test_goals.py — 15 new tests (backcompat, mutation,
persistence, prompt template selection, judge-prompt content via mock,
status-line rendering)
77 goal-related tests passing across goals + cli + gateway + tui.
* fix(goals): slash commands don't preempt the goal-continuation hook
Two findings from live-testing /subgoal:
1. Slash commands queued while the agent is running landed in
_pending_input (same queue as real user messages). The goal hook's
'is a real user message pending?' check returned True and silently
skipped — but the slash command consumes its queue slot via
process_command() which never re-fires the goal hook, so the loop
stalls indefinitely. Now the hook peeks the queue and only defers
when a non-slash payload is present.
2. The with-subgoals judge prompt was too soft — opus 4.7 said 'done,
implying all requirements met' without verifying. Tightened to
demand specific per-criterion evidence (file contents, output line,
command result) and explicitly reject phrases like 'implying it was
done.'
Live verified: /subgoal injected mid-loop now correctly forces the
judge to refuse done until the new criterion is met. Agent gets the
continuation prompt with subgoals listed, updates the script, judge
confirms done with specific evidence cited.
By default, once Hermes participates in a Discord thread (auto-created on
@mention or replied in once) it auto-responds to every subsequent message
in that thread without requiring further @mentions. That's the right default
for one-on-one conversations and isolated channel threads.
But it's a confirmed footgun in multi-bot threads. When a user invokes one
bot per turn — addressing Codex first, then Hermes — every other bot in the
thread also fires on every message, burning credits and spamming the channel.
Author has hit this personally in active multi-bot research-team threads.
Add a new `discord.thread_require_mention` config key (env:
`DISCORD_THREAD_REQUIRE_MENTION`), default `false` to preserve existing
behavior. When `true`, the in-thread mention shortcut is disabled and
threads are gated the same way channels are. Explicit @mentions still pass
through as expected.
Mirrors the existing helper shape (config.extra > env > default) and the
existing yaml→env bridge pattern used by `require_mention`.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: new `_discord_thread_require_mention()`
helper; in_bot_thread shortcut now AND's with `not _discord_thread_require_mention()`
- gateway/config.py: bridge `discord.thread_require_mention` from config.yaml
to `DISCORD_THREAD_REQUIRE_MENTION` env var (mirrors the existing
`require_mention` bridge two lines above)
- hermes_cli/config.py: add `thread_require_mention: False` default to
DEFAULT_CONFIG['discord']
- tests/gateway/test_discord_free_response.py: 4 new tests covering default
behaviour (in-thread shortcut still works), enabled behaviour (mention
required in threads), enabled+mentioned (mention still passes through),
and yaml-via-config.extra path. Also clears DISCORD_* env vars in the
`adapter` fixture so process-env state from the contributor's shell
doesn't leak into per-test behaviour.
- tests/gateway/test_config.py: 2 new tests covering the yaml→env bridge
(both the apply-from-yaml and env-precedence-over-yaml paths)
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/discord.md: document the new env var
+ config key with multi-bot rationale; cross-link from `auto_thread`
section
Tested on Ubuntu 24.04.
Free-response channels are intended as lightweight chat surfaces — the bot
responds to every message without requiring an @mention. But the auto-thread
gate only checked DISCORD_NO_THREAD_CHANNELS, not DISCORD_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS,
so every message in a free-response channel still spawned a brand-new thread.
That turns a chat channel into a thread-spawning machine: 1 thread per message.
The user-facing docs at website/docs/user-guide/messaging/discord.md already
describe the intended behavior ("Free-response channels also skip auto-threading
— the bot replies inline rather than spinning off a new thread per message"),
so this is a code-vs-docs gap, not a design change.
Fix: OR is_free_channel into skip_thread alongside the existing no_thread_channels
check. One-line production change.
Regression test added at tests/gateway/test_discord_free_response.py:
test_discord_free_response_channel_skips_auto_thread asserts that a message
in a free-response channel never calls _auto_create_thread. Reverting the
one-line fix causes the test to fail with 'Expected mock to not have been
awaited. Awaited 1 times.' — i.e. the test demonstrates the bug concretely.
Lets platform plugins own their YAML→env config bridge instead of forcing
core gateway/config.py to know every platform's schema.
The hook receives the full parsed config.yaml and the platform's own
sub-dict, may mutate os.environ (env > YAML precedence preserved via the
standard `not os.getenv(...)` guards), and may return a dict to merge
into PlatformConfig.extra. It runs during load_gateway_config() after
the existing generic shared-key loop and before _apply_env_overrides(),
mirroring the env_enablement_fn dispatch pattern (#21306, #21331).
Pure addition — no behavior change for existing platforms. Each of the
eight platforms with hardcoded YAML→env blocks today (discord, telegram,
whatsapp, slack, dingtalk, mattermost, matrix, feishu, ~252 LOC in
gateway/config.py) can migrate in independent follow-up PRs; the
hardcoded blocks remain functional in the meantime, and their
`not os.getenv(...)` guards make them no-ops for any env var the hook
already set.
Test coverage: 10 new tests in tests/gateway/test_platform_registry.py
covering field default, callable acceptance, env mutation, extras
merge, both signature args, exception swallowing, missing/non-dict
sections, and env > YAML precedence.
Refs #3823, #24356.
Closes#24836.
Fixes#25028.
The lazy-install hooks added in #25014 installed packages correctly but
failed to rebind module-level globals after install:
- Slack: missing aiohttp rebind → NameError on file uploads
- Feishu: none of the ~25 lark_oapi symbols rebound → TypeError on
adapter instantiation
- Matrix: mautrix.types enums stayed as stubs → mismatched values at
runtime
Introduces tools.lazy_deps.ensure_and_bind() — a DRY helper that
combines ensure() + importer-callable + globals().update(). This
eliminates the error-prone pattern of manually listing every global
that needs updating after lazy-install. Each platform adapter now
defines a single _import() function returning all bindings.
Also fixes: pyproject.toml [slack] extra was missing aiohttp (needed
by slack-bolt's async path).
Slack platform-blocks native slash commands inside thread replies ("/queue
is not supported in threads. Sorry!") and there is no app-side setting to
re-enable them. As a workaround, rewrite a leading '!' to '/' for any known
gateway command before downstream processing — so '!queue', '!stop',
'!model gpt-5.4' etc. work inside Slack threads (and anywhere else).
Only the first token is checked against is_gateway_known_command(), so
casual messages like '!nice work' pass through to the agent unchanged.
Downstream pipeline (MessageType.COMMAND tagging, gateway dispatcher,
thread reply routing) is unchanged.
Adds 6 tests covering rewrite, args preservation, thread routing,
casual-message passthrough, '@bot' suffix, and plain '/' still-works.
* feat(codex-runtime): scaffold optional codex app-server runtime
Foundational commit for an opt-in alternate runtime that hands OpenAI/Codex
turns to a 'codex app-server' subprocess instead of Hermes' tool dispatch.
Default behavior is unchanged.
Lands in three pieces:
1. agent/transports/codex_app_server.py — JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdio speaker
for codex's app-server protocol (codex-rs/app-server). Spawn, init
handshake, request/response, notification queue, server-initiated
request queue (for approval round-trips), interrupt-friendly blocking
reads. Tested against real codex 0.130.0 binary end-to-end during
development.
2. hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py:
- Adds 'codex_app_server' to _VALID_API_MODES.
- Adds _maybe_apply_codex_app_server_runtime() helper, called at the
end of _resolve_runtime_from_pool_entry(). Inert unless
'model.openai_runtime: codex_app_server' is set in config.yaml AND
provider in {openai, openai-codex}. Other providers cannot be
rerouted (anthropic, openrouter, etc. preserved).
3. tests/agent/transports/test_codex_app_server_runtime.py — 24 tests
covering api_mode registration, the rewriter helper (default-off,
case-insensitive, opt-in, non-eligible providers preserved), version
parser, missing-binary handling, error class. Does NOT require codex
CLI installed.
This commit is wire-only: the api_mode is recognized but AIAgent does
not yet branch on it. Followup commits add the session adapter, event
projector, approval bridge, transcript projection (so memory/skill
review still works), plugin migration, and slash command.
Existing tests remain green:
- tests/cli/test_cli_provider_resolution.py (29 passed)
- tests/agent/test_credential_pool_routing.py (included above)
* feat(codex-runtime): add codex item projector for memory/skill review
The translator that lets Hermes' self-improvement loop keep working under the
Codex runtime: converts codex 'item/*' notifications into Hermes' standard
{role, content, tool_calls, tool_call_id} message shape that
agent/curator.py already knows how to read.
Item taxonomy (matches codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2/item.rs):
- userMessage → {role: user, content}
- agentMessage → {role: assistant, content: text}
- reasoning → stashed in next assistant's 'reasoning' field
- commandExecution → assistant tool_call(name='exec_command') + tool result
- fileChange → assistant tool_call(name='apply_patch') + tool result
- mcpToolCall → assistant tool_call(name='mcp.<server>.<tool>') + tool result
- dynamicToolCall → assistant tool_call(name=<tool>) + tool result
- plan/hookPrompt/etc → opaque assistant note, no fabricated tool_calls
Invariants preserved:
- Message role alternation never violated: each tool item produces at most
one assistant + one tool message in that order, correlated by call_id.
- Streaming deltas (item/<type>/outputDelta, item/agentMessage/delta)
don't materialize messages — only item/completed does. Mirrors how
Hermes already only writes the assistant message after streaming ends.
- Tool call ids are deterministic (codex item id-based) so replays produce
identical messages and prefix caches stay valid (AGENTS.md pitfall #16).
- JSON args use sorted_keys for the same reason.
Real wire formats verified against codex 0.130.0 by capturing live
notifications from thread/shellCommand and including one as a fixture
(COMMAND_EXEC_COMPLETED).
23 new tests, all green:
- Streaming deltas don't materialize (3 paths)
- Turn/thread frame events are silent
- commandExecution: 5 tests including non-zero exit annotation +
deterministic id stability across replays
- agentMessage + reasoning attachment + reasoning consumption
- fileChange: summary without inlined content
- mcpToolCall: namespaced naming + error surfacing
- userMessage: text fragments only (drops images/etc)
- opaque items: no fabricated tool_calls
- Helpers: deterministic id stability + sorted JSON args
- Role alternation invariant across all four tool-shaped item types
This commit is a pure addition. AIAgent integration (the wire that uses the
projector) is the next commit.
* feat(codex-runtime): add session adapter + approval bridge
The third self-contained module: CodexAppServerSession owns one Codex
thread per Hermes session, drives turn/start, consumes streaming
notifications via CodexEventProjector, handles server-initiated approval
requests, and translates cancellation into turn/interrupt.
The adapter has a single public per-turn method:
result = session.run_turn(user_input='...', turn_timeout=600)
# result.final_text → assistant text for the caller
# result.projected_messages → list ready to splice into AIAgent.messages
# result.tool_iterations → tick count for _iters_since_skill nudge
# result.interrupted → True on Ctrl+C / deadline / interrupt
# result.error → error string when the turn cannot complete
# result.turn_id, thread_id → for sessions DB / resume
Behavior:
- ensure_started() spawns codex, does the initialize handshake, and
issues thread/start with cwd + permissions profile. Idempotent.
- run_turn() blocks until turn/completed, drains server-initiated
requests (approvals) before reading notifications so codex never
deadlocks waiting for us, projects every item/completed via the
projector, and increments tool_iterations for the skill nudge gate.
- request_interrupt() is thread-safe (threading.Event); the next loop
iteration issues turn/interrupt and unwinds.
- turn_timeout deadlock guard issues turn/interrupt and records an
error if the turn never completes.
- close() escalates terminate → kill via the underlying client.
Approval bridge:
Codex emits server-initiated requests for execCommandApproval and
applyPatchApproval. The adapter translates Hermes' approval choice
vocabulary onto codex's decision vocabulary:
Hermes 'once' → codex 'approved'
Hermes 'session' or 'always' → codex 'approvedForSession'
Hermes 'deny' / anything else → codex 'denied'
Routing precedence:
1. _ServerRequestRouting.auto_approve_* flags (cron / non-interactive)
2. approval_callback wired by the CLI (defers to
tools.approval.prompt_dangerous_approval())
3. Fail-closed denial when neither is wired
Unknown server-request methods are answered with JSON-RPC error -32601
so codex doesn't hang waiting for us.
Permission profile mapping mirrors AGENTS.md:
Hermes 'auto' → codex 'workspace-write'
Hermes 'approval-required' → codex 'read-only-with-approval'
Hermes 'unrestricted/yolo' → codex 'full-access'
20 new tests, all green. Combined with prior commits this PR now has
67 tests across three modules:
- test_codex_app_server_runtime.py: 24 (api_mode + transport surface)
- test_codex_event_projector.py: 23 (item taxonomy projections)
- test_codex_app_server_session.py: 20 (turn loop + approvals + interrupts)
Full tests/agent/transports/ directory: 249/249 pass — no regressions
to existing transport tests.
Still no wire into AIAgent.run_conversation(); that integration commit
is small and goes next.
* feat(codex-runtime): wire codex_app_server runtime into AIAgent
The integration commit. AIAgent.run_conversation() now early-returns to a
new helper _run_codex_app_server_turn() when self.api_mode ==
'codex_app_server', bypassing the chat_completions tool loop entirely.
Three small surgical edits to run_agent.py (~105 LOC total):
1. Line ~1204 (constructor api_mode validation set):
Add 'codex_app_server' so an explicit api_mode='codex_app_server'
passed to AIAgent() isn't silently rewritten to 'chat_completions'.
2. Line ~12048 (run_conversation, just before the while loop):
Early-return to _run_codex_app_server_turn() when self.api_mode is
'codex_app_server'. Placed AFTER all standard pre-loop setup —
logging context, session DB, surrogate sanitization, _user_turn_count
and _turns_since_memory increments, _ext_prefetch_cache, memory
manager on_turn_start — so behavior outside the model-call loop is
identical between paths. Default Hermes flow is unchanged when the
flag is off.
3. End-of-class (line ~15497):
New method _run_codex_app_server_turn(). Lazy-instantiates one
CodexAppServerSession per AIAgent (reused across turns), runs the
turn, splices projected_messages into messages, increments
_iters_since_skill by tool_iterations (since the chat_completions
loop normally does that per iteration), fires
_spawn_background_review on the same cadence as the default path.
Counter accounting:
_turns_since_memory ← already incremented at run_conversation:11817
(gated on memory store configured) — codex
helper does NOT touch it (would double-count).
_user_turn_count ← already incremented at run_conversation:11793
— codex helper does NOT touch it.
_iters_since_skill ← incremented in the chat_completions loop per
tool iteration. Codex helper increments by
turn.tool_iterations since the loop is bypassed.
User message:
ALREADY appended to messages by run_conversation pre-loop (line 11823)
before the early-return reaches us. Helper does NOT append again.
Regression test test_user_message_not_duplicated guards this.
Approval callback wiring:
Lazy-fetches tools.terminal_tool._get_approval_callback at session
spawn time, passes to CodexAppServerSession. CLI threads with
prompt_toolkit get interactive approvals; gateway/cron contexts get
the codex-side fail-closed deny.
Error path:
Codex session exceptions become a 'partial' result with completed=False
and a final_response that explicitly tells the user how to switch back:
'Codex app-server turn failed: ... Fall back to default runtime with
/codex-runtime auto.' Same return-dict shape as the chat_completions
path so all callers (gateway, CLI, batch_runner, ACP) work unchanged.
9 new integration tests in tests/run_agent/test_codex_app_server_integration.py:
- api_mode='codex_app_server' is accepted on AIAgent construction
- run_conversation returns the expected codex shape
(final_response, codex_thread_id, codex_turn_id, completed, partial)
- Projected messages are spliced into messages list
- _iters_since_skill ticks per tool iteration
- _user_turn_count delegated to standard flow (not double-counted)
- User message appears exactly once (regression guard)
- _spawn_background_review IS invoked (memory/skill review keeps working)
- chat.completions.create is NEVER called (loop fully bypassed)
- Session exception → partial result with /codex-runtime auto hint
- Interrupted turn → partial result with error preserved
Adjacent test runs confirm no regressions:
- tests/run_agent/test_memory_nudge_counter_hydration.py: green
- tests/run_agent/test_background_review.py: green
- tests/run_agent/test_fallback_model.py: green
- tests/agent/transports/: 249/249 green
Still missing for full feature: /codex-runtime slash command, plugin
migration helper, docs page, live e2e test gated on codex binary. Those
are the remaining followup commits.
* feat(codex-runtime): add /codex-runtime slash command (CLI + gateway)
User-facing toggle for the optional codex app-server runtime. Follows the
'Adding a Slash Command (All Platforms)' pattern from AGENTS.md exactly:
single CommandDef in the central registry → CLI handler → gateway handler
→ running-agent guard → all surfaces (autocomplete, /help, Telegram menu,
Slack subcommands) update automatically.
Surface:
/codex-runtime — show current state + codex CLI status
/codex-runtime auto — Hermes default runtime
/codex-runtime codex_app_server — codex subprocess runtime
/codex-runtime on / off — synonyms
Files changed:
hermes_cli/codex_runtime_switch.py (new):
Pure-Python state machine shared by CLI and gateway. Parse args,
read/write model.openai_runtime in the config dict, gate enabling
behind a codex --version check (don't let users opt in to a runtime
they have no binary for; print npm install hint instead).
Returns a CodexRuntimeStatus dataclass that callers render however
suits their surface.
hermes_cli/commands.py:
Single CommandDef entry, no aliases (codex-runtime is its own thing).
cli.py:
Dispatch in process_command() + _handle_codex_runtime() handler that
delegates to the shared module and renders results via _cprint.
gateway/run.py:
Dispatch in _handle_message() + _handle_codex_runtime_command() that
returns a string (gateway sends as message). On a successful change
that requires a new session, _evict_cached_agent() forces the next
inbound message to construct a fresh AIAgent with the new api_mode —
avoids prompt-cache invalidation mid-session.
gateway/run.py running-agent guard:
/codex-runtime joins /model in the early-intercept block so a runtime
flip mid-turn can't split a turn across two transports.
Tests:

* feat(codex-runtime): auto-migrate Hermes MCP servers to ~/.codex/config.toml
Translates the user's mcp_servers config from ~/.hermes/config.yaml into
the TOML format codex's MCP client expects. Wired into the
/codex-runtime codex_app_server enable path so users get their MCP tool
surface in the spawned subprocess automatically.
The migration runs on every enable. Failures are non-fatal — the runtime
change still proceeds and the user gets a warning so they can fix the
codex config manually.
What translates (mapping verified against codex-rs/core/src/config/edit.rs):
Hermes mcp_servers.<n>.command/args/env → codex stdio transport
Hermes mcp_servers.<n>.url/headers → codex streamable_http transport
Hermes mcp_servers.<n>.timeout → codex tool_timeout_sec
Hermes mcp_servers.<n>.connect_timeout → codex startup_timeout_sec
Hermes mcp_servers.<n>.cwd → codex stdio cwd
Hermes mcp_servers.<n>.enabled: false → codex enabled = false
What does NOT translate (warned + skipped per server):
Hermes-specific keys (sampling, etc.) — codex's MCP client has no
equivalent. Listed in the per-server skipped[] field of the report.
What's NOT migrated (intentional):
AGENTS.md — codex respects this file natively in its cwd. Hermes' own
AGENTS.md (project-level) is already in the worktree, so codex picks
it up without translation. No code needed.
Idempotency design:
All managed content lives between a 'managed by hermes-agent' marker
and the next non-mcp_servers section header. _strip_existing_managed_block
removes the prior managed region cleanly, preserving any user-added
codex config (model, providers.openai, sandbox profiles, etc.) above
or below.
Files added:
hermes_cli/codex_runtime_plugin_migration.py — pure-Python migration
helper. Public API: migrate(hermes_config, codex_home=None,
dry_run=False) returns MigrationReport with .migrated/.errors/
.skipped_keys_per_server. No external TOML dependency — minimal
formatter handles strings/numbers/booleans/lists/inline-tables.
tests/hermes_cli/test_codex_runtime_plugin_migration.py — 39 tests
covering:
- per-server translation (12): stdio/http/sse, cwd, timeouts,
enabled flag, command+url precedence, sampling drop, unknown keys
- TOML formatter (8): types, escaping, inline tables, error case
- existing-block stripping (4): no marker, alone, with user content
above, with user content below
- end-to-end migrate() (8): empty, dry-run, round-trip, idempotent
re-run, preserves user config, error reporting, invalid input,
summary formatting
Files changed:
hermes_cli/codex_runtime_switch.py — apply() now calls migrate() in
the codex_app_server enable branch. Migration failure logs a warning
in the result message but does NOT fail the runtime change. Disable
path (auto) explicitly skips migration.
tests/hermes_cli/test_codex_runtime_switch.py — 3 new tests:
test_enable_triggers_mcp_migration, test_disable_does_not_trigger_migration,
test_migration_failure_does_not_block_enable.
All 325 feature tests green:
- tests/agent/transports/: 249 (incl. 67 new)
- tests/run_agent/test_codex_app_server_integration.py: 9
- tests/hermes_cli/test_codex_runtime_switch.py: 28 (3 new)
- tests/hermes_cli/test_codex_runtime_plugin_migration.py: 39 (new)
* perf(codex-runtime): cache codex --version check within apply()
Single /codex-runtime invocation could spawn 'codex --version' up to 3
times (state report, enable gate, success message). Each spawn is ~50ms,
so the cumulative cost wasn't a crisis, but it was wasteful and turned a
trivial slash command into something noticeably laggy on slower systems.
Refactored to lazy-once via a closure over a nonlocal cache. First call
spawns; subsequent calls in the same apply() reuse the result.
Behavior unchanged — same return shape, same error handling, same install
hint when codex is missing. Just one subprocess per call instead of three.
Two regression-guard tests added:
- test_binary_check_cached_within_apply: enable path → call_count == 1
- test_binary_check_cached_on_read_only_call: state-report path → call_count == 1
Total tests for /codex-runtime now 30 (was 28); all 143 codex-runtime
tests still green.
* fix(codex-runtime): correct protocol field names found via live e2e test
Three real bugs caught only by running a turn end-to-end against codex
0.130.0 with a real ChatGPT subscription. Unit tests passed because they
asserted on our own (incorrect) wire shapes; the wire format from
codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2/* is the source of truth and
my initial reading of the README was incomplete.
Bug 1: thread/start.permissions wire format
Was sending {"profileId": "workspace-write"}.
Real format per PermissionProfileSelectionParams enum (tagged union):
{"type": "profile", "id": "workspace-write"}
AND requires the experimentalApi capability declared during initialize.
AND requires a matching [permissions] table in ~/.codex/config.toml or
codex fails the request with 'default_permissions requires a [permissions]
table'.
Fix: stop overriding permissions on thread/start. Codex picks its default
profile (read-only unless user configures otherwise), which matches what
codex CLI users expect — they configure their default permission profile
in ~/.codex/config.toml the standard way. Trying to be clever about
profile selection broke every turn we tested.
Live error before fix: 'Invalid request: missing field type' on every
turn/start, even though our turn/start payload was correct — the field
codex was complaining about was inside the permissions sub-object we
shouldn't have been sending.
Bug 2: server-request method names
Was matching 'execCommandApproval' and 'applyPatchApproval'.
Real names per common.rs ServerRequest enum:
item/commandExecution/requestApproval
item/fileChange/requestApproval
item/permissions/requestApproval (new third method)
Fix: match the documented names. Added handler for
item/permissions/requestApproval that always declines — codex sometimes
asks to escalate permissions mid-turn and silent acceptance would surprise
users.
Live symptom before fix: agent.log showed
'Unknown codex server request: item/commandExecution/requestApproval'
and codex stalled because we replied with -32601 (unsupported method)
instead of an approval decision. The agent reported back 'The write
command was rejected' even though Hermes never showed the user an
approval prompt.
Bug 3: approval decision values
Was sending decision strings 'approved'/'approvedForSession'/'denied'.
Real values per CommandExecutionApprovalDecision enum (camelCase):
accept, acceptForSession, decline, cancel
(also AcceptWithExecpolicyAmendment and ApplyNetworkPolicyAmendment
variants we don't currently use).
Fix: rename _approval_choice_to_codex_decision return values; update
auto_approve_* fallbacks; update fail-closed default from 'denied' to
'decline'. Test mapping table updated to match.
Live test verified after fixes:
$ hermes (with model.openai_runtime: codex_app_server)
> Run the shell command: echo hermes-codex-livetest > .../proof.txt
then read it back
Approval prompt fired with 'Codex requests exec in <cwd>'.
User chose 'Allow once'. Codex executed the command, wrote the file,
read it back. Final response: 'Read back from proof.txt:
hermes-codex-livetest'. File contents on disk match.
agent.log confirms:
codex app-server thread started: id=019e200e profile=workspace-write
cwd=/tmp/hermes-codex-livetest/workspace
All 20 session tests still green after wire-format updates.
* fix(codex-runtime): correct apply_patch approval params + ship docs
Live e2e revealed FileChangeRequestApprovalParams doesn't carry the
changeset (just itemId, threadId, turnId, reason, grantRoot) — Codex's
'reason' field describes what the patch wants to do. Test config and
display logic updated to use it. The first 'apply_patch (0 change(s))'
display from the live test is now 'apply_patch: <reason>'.
Adds website/docs/user-guide/features/codex-app-server-runtime.md
covering enable/disable, prerequisites, approval UX, MCP migration
behavior, permission profile delegation to ~/.codex/config.toml, known
limitations, and the architecture diagram. Wired into the Automation
category in sidebars.ts.
Live e2e validation across the path matrix:
✓ thread/start handshake
✓ turn/start with text input
✓ commandExecution items + projection
✓ item/commandExecution/requestApproval → Hermes UI → response
✓ Approve once → command runs
✓ Deny → command rejected, codex falls back to read-only message
✓ Multi-turn (codex remembers prior turn's results)
✓ apply_patch via Codex's fileChange path
✓ item/fileChange/requestApproval → Hermes UI
✓ MCP server migration loads inside spawned codex (verified via
'use the filesystem MCP tool' prompt)
✓ /codex-runtime auto → codex_app_server toggle cycle
✓ Disable doesn't trigger migration
✓ Enable with codex CLI present succeeds + migrates
✓ Hermes-side interrupt path (turn/interrupt request issued cleanly
even if codex finishes before the interrupt lands)
Known live-validated limitations now documented in the docs page:
- delegate_task subagents unavailable on this runtime
- permission profile selection delegated to ~/.codex/config.toml
- apply_patch approval prompt has no inline changeset (codex protocol
doesn't expose it)
145/145 codex-runtime tests still green.
* feat(codex-runtime): native plugin migration + UX polish (quirks 2/4/5/10/11)
Major: migrate native Codex plugins (#7 in OpenClaw's PR list)
Discovers installed curated plugins via codex's plugin/list RPC and
writes [plugins."<name>@<marketplace>"] entries to ~/.codex/config.toml
so they're enabled in the spawned Codex sessions. This is the
'YouTube-video-worthy' bit Pash highlighted: when a user has
google-calendar, github, etc. installed in their Codex CLI, those
plugins activate automatically when they enable Hermes' codex runtime.
Implementation:
- hermes_cli/codex_runtime_plugin_migration.py: new _query_codex_plugins()
helper spawns 'codex app-server' briefly and walks plugin/list. Returns
(plugins, error) — failures are non-fatal so MCP migration still works.
- render_codex_toml_section() now takes plugins + permissions args.
- migrate() defaults: discover_plugins=True, default_permission_profile=
'workspace-write'. Explicit None on either disables that side.
- _strip_existing_managed_block() now also strips [plugins.*] and
[permissions]/[permissions.*] sections inside the managed block, so
re-runs replace plugins cleanly without touching codex's own config.
Quirk fixes:
#2 Default permissions profile written on enable.
Without this, Codex's read-only default kicks in and EVERY write
triggers an approval prompt. Now writes [permissions] default =
'workspace-write' so the runtime feels normal out of the box. Set
default_permission_profile=None to opt out.
#4 apply_patch approval prompt now shows what's changing.
Codex's FileChangeRequestApprovalParams doesn't carry the changeset.
Session adapter now caches the fileChange item from item/started
notifications and looks it up by itemId when codex requests approval.
Prompt shows '1 add, 1 update: /tmp/new.py, /tmp/old.py' instead of
'apply_patch (0 change(s))'.
Side benefit: also drains pending notifications BEFORE handling a
server request, so the projector and per-turn caches are up to date
when the approval decision fires. Bounded to 8 notifications per
loop iter to avoid starving codex's response.
#5/#10 Exec approval prompt never shows empty cwd.
When codex omits cwd in CommandExecutionRequestApprovalParams, fall
back to the session's cwd. If somehow neither is available, show
'<unknown>' explicitly instead of an empty string.
Also surfaces 'reason' from the approval params when codex provides
it — gives users more context on why codex wants to run something.
#11 Banner indicates the codex_app_server runtime when active.
New 'Runtime: codex app-server (terminal/file ops/MCP run inside
codex)' line appears in the welcome banner only when the runtime is
on. Default banner is unchanged.
Tests:
- 7 new tests in test_codex_runtime_plugin_migration.py covering
plugin discovery (mocked), failure handling, dry-run skip, opt-out
flag, idempotent re-runs, and permissions writing.
- 3 new tests in test_codex_app_server_session.py covering the
enriched approval prompts: cwd fallback, change summary on
apply_patch, fallback when no item/started cache exists.
- All 26 session tests + 46 migration tests green; 153 total in PR.
* feat(codex-runtime): hermes-tools MCP callback + native plugin migration
The big architectural addition: when codex_app_server runtime is on,
Hermes registers its own tool surface as an MCP server in
~/.codex/config.toml so the codex subprocess can call back into Hermes
for tools codex doesn't ship with — web_search, browser_*, vision,
image_generate, skills, TTS.
Also: 'migrate native codex plugins' (Pash's YouTube-video-worthy bit) —
when the user has plugins like Linear, GitHub, Gmail, Calendar, Canva
installed via 'codex plugin', Hermes discovers them via plugin/list and
writes [plugins.<name>@openai-curated] entries so they activate
automatically.
New module: agent/transports/hermes_tools_mcp_server.py
FastMCP stdio server exposing 17 Hermes tools. Each call dispatches
through model_tools.handle_function_call() — same code path as the
Hermes default runtime. Run with:
python -m agent.transports.hermes_tools_mcp_server [--verbose]
Exposed: web_search, web_extract, browser_navigate / _click / _type /
_press / _snapshot / _scroll / _back / _get_images / _console /
_vision, vision_analyze, image_generate, skill_view, skills_list,
text_to_speech.
NOT exposed (deliberately):
- terminal/shell/read_file/write_file/patch — codex has built-ins
- delegate_task/memory/session_search/todo — _AGENT_LOOP_TOOLS in
model_tools.py:493, require running AIAgent context. Documented
as a limitation and surfaced in the slash command output.
Migration changes (hermes_cli/codex_runtime_plugin_migration.py):
- _query_codex_plugins() spawns 'codex app-server' briefly to walk
plugin/list and pull installed openai-curated plugins. Failures are
non-fatal — MCP migration still completes.
- render_codex_toml_section() now takes plugins + permissions args
AND wraps the managed block with a MIGRATION_END_MARKER comment so
the stripper can reliably find both ends, even when the block
contains top-level keys (default_permissions = ...).
- migrate() defaults: discover_plugins=True, expose_hermes_tools=True,
default_permission_profile=':workspace' (built-in codex profile name
— must be prefixed with ':'). All three opt-out via explicit args.
- _build_hermes_tools_mcp_entry() builds the codex stdio entry with
HERMES_HOME and PYTHONPATH passthrough so a worktree-launched
Hermes points the MCP subprocess at the same module layout.
Live-caught wire bugs fixed during this turn:
1. Permission profile config key is top-level , NOT a [permissions] table. The [permissions] table is
for *user-defined* profiles with structured fields. Built-in
profile names start with ':' (':workspace', ':read-only',
':danger-no-sandbox'). Was emitting
which codex rejected with 'invalid type: string "X", expected
struct PermissionProfileToml'.
2. Built-in profile is , NOT . Codex
rejected with 'unknown built-in profile'.
3. Codex's MCP layer sends for
tool-call confirmation. We weren't handling it, so codex stalled
and returned 'MCP tool call was rejected'. Now: auto-accept for
our own hermes-tools server (user already opted in by enabling
the runtime), decline for third-party servers.
Quirk fixes shipped (from the limitations list):
#2 default permissions: workspace profile written on enable. No more
approval prompt on every write.
#4 apply_patch approval shows what's changing: cache fileChange
items from item/started, look up by itemId when codex sends
item/fileChange/requestApproval. Prompt: '1 add, 1 update:
/tmp/new.py, /tmp/old.py' instead of '0 change(s)'.
#5/#10 exec approval cwd never empty: fall back to session cwd, then
'<unknown>'. Also surfaces 'reason' from codex when present.
#11 banner shows 'Runtime: codex app-server' line when active so
users understand why tool counts may not match what's reachable.
Tests:
- 5 new tests in test_codex_runtime_plugin_migration.py covering
plugin discovery, expose_hermes_tools entry generation, idempotent
re-runs, opt-out flag, permissions profile.
- 3 new tests in test_codex_app_server_session.py covering enriched
approval prompts (cwd fallback, fileChange summary).
- 2 new tests for mcpServer/elicitation/request handling (accept
hermes-tools, decline others).
- New test file test_hermes_tools_mcp_server.py covering module
surface, EXPOSED_TOOLS safety invariants (no shell/file_ops,
no agent-loop tools), and main() error paths.
- 166 codex-runtime tests total, all green.
Live e2e validated against codex 0.130.0 + ChatGPT subscription:
✓ /codex-runtime codex_app_server enables, migrates filesystem MCP,
registers hermes-tools, writes default_permissions = ':workspace'
✓ Banner shows 'Runtime: codex app-server' line in subsequent sessions
✓ Shell command runs without approval prompt (workspace profile works)
✓ Multi-turn — codex remembers prior turn's results
✓ apply_patch path via fileChange request approval
✓ web_search via hermes-tools MCP callback returns real Firecrawl
results: 'OpenAI Codex CLI – Getting Started' end-to-end in 13s
✓ Disable cycle clean
Docs updated: website/docs/user-guide/features/codex-app-server-runtime.md
Full re-write covering native plugin migration, the hermes-tools
callback architecture, the prerequisites change ('codex login is
separate from hermes auth login codex'), the trade-off table now
reflecting which Hermes tools work via callback, and the limitations
list updated with what's actually unavailable on this runtime.
* feat(codex-runtime): pin user-config preservation invariant for quirk #6
Quirk #6 from the limitations list — user MCP servers / overrides /
codex-only sections in ~/.codex/config.toml that live OUTSIDE the
hermes-managed block must survive re-migration verbatim.
This already worked thanks to the MIGRATION_MARKER + MIGRATION_END_MARKER
pair I added when fixing the default_permissions wire format (so the
strip can find both ends of the managed region even with top-level
keys like default_permissions). But it was an emergent property
without a test pinning it.
Now explicitly tested:
- User MCP server above the managed block survives migration
- User MCP server below the managed block survives migration
- Both above + below survive a second re-migration
- User content (model, providers, sandbox, otel, etc.) outside our
region is left untouched
Docs added a section "Editing ~/.codex/config.toml safely" explaining
the marker contract — so users know they can add their own MCP
servers, override permissions, configure codex-only options, etc.
without fear of Hermes overwriting their work.
167 codex-runtime tests, all green.
* docs(codex-runtime): clarify the actual tool surface — shell covers terminal/read/write/find
Previous docs and PR description undersold what codex's built-in
toolset actually provides. apply_patch alone made it sound like the
runtime could only edit files in patch format — implying you'd lose
terminal use, read_file, write_file, search/find. That was wrong.
Codex's 'shell' tool runs arbitrary shell commands inside the sandbox,
which covers everything you'd do in bash: cat/head/tail (read), echo>
or heredocs (write), find/rg/grep (search), ls/cd (navigate), build/
test/git/etc. apply_patch is for structured multi-file edits on top
of that. update_plan is its in-runtime todo. view_image loads images.
And codex has its own web_search built in (in addition to the
Firecrawl-backed one Hermes exposes via MCP callback).
Docs now have a 'What tools the model actually has' section right
after Why, breaking the surface into three clearly-labeled buckets:
1. Codex's built-in toolset (always on) — shell, apply_patch,
update_plan, view_image, web_search; covers everything terminal-
adjacent.
2. Native Codex plugins (auto-migrated from your codex plugin
install) — Linear, GitHub, Gmail, Calendar, Outlook, Canva, etc.
3. Hermes tool callback (MCP server in ~/.codex/config.toml) —
web_search/web_extract via Firecrawl, browser_*, vision_analyze,
image_generate, skill_view/skills_list, text_to_speech.
Plus a 'What's NOT available' callout listing the four agent-loop tools
(delegate_task, memory, session_search, todo) that need running
AIAgent context and can't reach the codex runtime.
Trade-offs table broken out: shell, apply_patch, update_plan,
view_image, sandbox each get their own row with a one-line description
so users can see at a glance what's available natively.
Architecture diagram updated to list the codex built-ins by name
instead of 'apply_patch + shell + sandbox'.
No code changes — purely docs clarification. 167 codex-runtime tests
still green.
* fix(codex-runtime): _spawn_background_review signature + review fork api_mode downgrade
Two real bugs in the self-improvement loop integration that the previous
test mocked away.
Bug 1: wrong call signature
The codex helper was calling self._spawn_background_review() with no
args after every turn. That function actually requires:
messages_snapshot=list (positional or keyword)
review_memory=bool (at least one trigger must be True)
review_skills=bool
So the call would have raised TypeError at runtime — except the only
test that exercised this path mocked _spawn_background_review entirely
and just asserted spawn.called, so the wrong-arg shape never surfaced.
Bug 2: review fork inherits codex_app_server api_mode
The review fork is constructed with:
api_mode = _parent_runtime.get('api_mode')
So when the parent is codex_app_server, the review fork ALSO runs as
codex_app_server. But the review fork's whole job is to call agent-loop
tools (memory, skill_manage) which require Hermes' own dispatch — they
short-circuit with 'must be handled by the agent loop' on the codex
runtime. So the review fork would have run, decided to save something,
called memory or skill_manage, and silently no-op'd.
Fixed in run_agent.py:_spawn_background_review() — when the parent
api_mode is 'codex_app_server', the review fork is downgraded to
'codex_responses' (same OAuth credentials, same openai-codex provider,
but talks to OpenAI's Responses API directly so Hermes owns the loop).
Also rewrote the codex helper's review wiring to match the
chat_completions path:
- Computes _should_review_memory in the pre-loop block (was already
being computed; now passed through to the helper as an arg).
- Computes _should_review_skills AFTER the codex turn returns +
counters tick (line ~15432 pattern in chat_completions).
- Calls _spawn_background_review(messages_snapshot=, review_memory=,
review_skills=) only when at least one trigger fires.
- Adds the external memory provider sync (_sync_external_memory_for_turn)
that the chat_completions path runs after every turn.
Tests:
Replaced the broken test_background_review_invoked (which only
asserted spawn.called) with three sharper tests:
- test_background_review_NOT_invoked_below_threshold:
single turn at default thresholds → no review fires (would have
caught the original 'every turn calls spawn with no args' bug)
- test_background_review_skill_trigger_fires_above_threshold:
10 tool_iterations at threshold=10 → review fires with
messages_snapshot=list, review_skills=True, counter resets
- test_background_review_signature_never_breaks: regression guard
asserting positional args are always empty and kwargs include
messages_snapshot
New TestReviewForkApiModeDowngrade class:
- test_codex_app_server_parent_downgrades_review_fork: drives the
real _spawn_background_review function (no mock at that level),
asserts the review_agent gets api_mode='codex_responses' when
the parent was codex_app_server.
Live-validated against real run_conversation:
- Counter ticked from 0 to 5 after a 5-tool-iteration turn
- _spawn_background_review fired exactly once with kwargs-only signature
- review_skills=True, review_memory=False
- messages_snapshot was 12 entries (5 assistant tool_calls + 5 tool
results + 1 final assistant + initial system/user)
- Counter reset to 0 after fire
170 codex-runtime tests, all green.
Docs: added a Self-improvement loop section to the codex runtime page
explaining both how the trigger logic stays equivalent and that the
review fork is auto-downgraded to codex_responses for the agent-loop
tools. Also clarified that apply_patch and update_plan ARE codex's
built-in tools (the previous version made it sound like they were
separate from 'codex's stuff' — they're not, all five tools listed
in 'What tools the model actually has' section 1 are codex built-ins).
* feat(codex-runtime): expose kanban tools through Hermes MCP callback
Kanban workers spawn as separate hermes chat -q subprocesses that read
the user's config.yaml. If model.openai_runtime: codex_app_server is set
globally (which is the whole point of opt-in), every dispatched worker
ALSO comes up on the codex runtime.
That mostly works — codex's built-in shell + apply_patch + update_plan
do the actual task work fine — but it had one critical break: the
worker handoff tools (kanban_complete, kanban_block, kanban_comment,
kanban_heartbeat) are Hermes-registered tools, not codex built-ins.
On the codex runtime, codex builds its own tool list and these never
reach the model, so the worker would do the work but not be able to
report back, hanging until the dispatcher's timeout escalates it as
zombie.
Fix: add all 9 kanban tools to the EXPOSED_TOOLS list in the Hermes
MCP callback. They dispatch statelessly through handle_function_call()
just like web_search and the others — they read HERMES_KANBAN_TASK
from env (set by the dispatcher), gate correctly (worker tools require
the env var, orchestrator tools require it unset), and write to
~/.hermes/kanban.db.
Why kanban tools work via stateless dispatch when delegate_task/memory/
session_search/todo don't: those four are listed in _AGENT_LOOP_TOOLS
(model_tools.py:493) and short-circuit in handle_function_call() with
'must be handled by the agent loop' — they need to mutate AIAgent's
mid-loop state. Kanban tools have no such requirement; they're pure
side-effect functions against the kanban.db plus state_meta.
Tools exposed:
Worker handoff (require HERMES_KANBAN_TASK):
kanban_complete, kanban_block, kanban_comment, kanban_heartbeat
Read-only board queries:
kanban_show, kanban_list
Orchestrator (require HERMES_KANBAN_TASK unset):
kanban_create, kanban_unblock, kanban_link
Tests:
- test_kanban_worker_tools_exposed: complete/block/comment/heartbeat
in EXPOSED_TOOLS (regression guard for the would-hang-worker bug)
- test_kanban_orchestrator_tools_exposed: create/show/list/unblock/link
Docs:
- New 'Workflow features' section in the docs page covering /goal,
kanban, and cron behavior on this runtime
- /goal: works fully via run_conversation feedback; only caveat is
approval-prompt noise on long writes-heavy goals (mitigated by
the default :workspace permission profile)
- Kanban: enumerated which tools are reachable via the callback and
why the env var propagates correctly through the codex subprocess
to the MCP server subprocess
- Cron: documented as 'not specifically tested' — same rules as the
CLI apply since cron runs through AIAgent.run_conversation
- Trade-offs table gained rows for /goal, kanban worker, kanban
orchestrator
172/172 codex-runtime tests green (+2 from kanban tests).
* docs(codex-runtime): wire /codex-runtime into slash-commands ref + flag aux token cost
Three docs gaps caught during a final audit:
1. /codex-runtime was only in the feature docs page, not in the
slash-commands reference. Added rows to both the CLI section and
the Messaging section so users discover it where they'd look for
slash command syntax.
2. CODEX_HOME and HERMES_KANBAN_TASK weren't in environment-variables.md.
CODEX_HOME lets users redirect Codex CLI's config dir (the migration
honors it). HERMES_KANBAN_TASK is set by the kanban dispatcher and
propagates to the codex subprocess + the hermes-tools MCP subprocess
so kanban worker tools gate correctly — documented as 'don't set
manually' since it's an internal handoff.
3. Aux client behavior on this runtime. When openai_runtime=
codex_app_server is on with the openai-codex provider, every aux
task (title generation, context compression, vision auto-detect,
session search summarization, the background self-improvement review
fork) flows through the user's ChatGPT subscription by default.
This is true for the existing codex_responses path too, but it's
more visible / important here because users explicitly opted in for
subscription billing. Added a 'Auxiliary tasks and ChatGPT
subscription token cost' section to the docs page with a YAML
example showing how to override specific aux tasks to a cheaper
model (typically google/gemini-3-flash-preview via OpenRouter).
Also documents how the self-improvement review fork gets
auto-downgraded from codex_app_server to codex_responses by the
fix earlier in this PR.
No code changes — pure docs. 172 codex-runtime tests still green.
* docs+test(codex-runtime): pin HOME passthrough, document multi-profile + CODEX_HOME
OpenClaw hit a real footgun in openclaw/openclaw#81562: when spawning
codex app-server they were synthesizing a per-agent HOME alongside
CODEX_HOME. That made every subprocess codex's shell tool launches
(gh, git, aws, npm, gcloud, ...) see a fake $HOME and miss the user's
real config files. They had to back it out in PR #81562 — keep
CODEX_HOME isolation, leave HOME alone.
Audit confirms Hermes' codex spawn doesn't have this problem. We do
os.environ.copy() and only overlay CODEX_HOME (when provided) and
RUST_LOG. HOME passes through unchanged. But it was an emergent
property without a test pinning it, so adding a regression guard:
test_spawn_env_preserves_HOME — confirms parent HOME survives intact
in the subprocess env
test_spawn_env_sets_CODEX_HOME_when_provided — confirms codex_home
arg still isolates
codex state correctly
Docs additions:
'HOME environment variable passthrough' section — calls out the
contract explicitly: CODEX_HOME isolates codex's own state, HOME
stays user-real so gh/git/aws/npm/etc. find their normal config.
Cites openclaw#81562 as the cautionary tale.
'Multi-profile / multi-tenant setups' section — addresses the
related concern: profiles share ~/.codex/ by default. For users who
want per-profile codex isolation (separate auth, separate plugins),
documents the manual CODEX_HOME=<profile-scoped-dir> approach.
Explains why we DON'T auto-scope CODEX_HOME per profile: doing so
would silently invalidate existing codex login state for anyone
upgrading to this PR with tokens already at ~/.codex/auth.json.
Opt-in is safer than surprising users.
174 codex-runtime tests (+2 from HOME guards), all green.
* fix(codex-runtime): TOML control-char escapes + atomic config.toml write
Two footguns caught in a final audit pass before merge.
Bug 1: TOML control characters not escaped
The _format_toml_value() helper escaped backslashes and double quotes
but passed literal control characters (\n, \t, \r, \f, \b) through
unchanged. TOML basic strings don't allow literal control characters
— a path or env var containing a newline would produce invalid TOML
that codex refuses to load.
Realistic exposure: pathological cases like a HERMES_HOME with a
trailing newline (env var concatenation accident), or a PYTHONPATH
with a tab from a multi-line shell heredoc.
Fix: escape all five TOML basic-string control sequences (\b \t \n
\f \r) in addition to \\ and \" that we already did. Order
matters — backslash must come first or the other escapes get
re-escaped.
Bug 2: config.toml write wasn't atomic
If the python process crashed between target.mkdir() and the
write_text() finishing, a half-written config.toml could be left
behind. On NFS / Windows / some FUSE mounts this is a real concern;
on ext4/APFS small writes are usually atomic in practice but not
guaranteed.
Fix: write to a tempfile.mkstemp() temp file in the same directory,
then Path.replace() (atomic same-dir rename on POSIX, ReplaceFile on
Windows). On rename failure, clean up the temp file so repeated
failed migrations don't pile up .config.toml.* files.
Tests:
- test_string_with_newline_escaped — \n in value → \n in output
- test_string_with_tab_escaped — \t in value → \t in output
- test_string_with_other_controls_escaped — \r, \f, \b
- test_windows_path_escaped_correctly — backslash doubling
- test_atomic_write_no_temp_leak_on_success — no .config.toml.*
left over after a successful write
- test_atomic_write_cleanup_on_rename_failure — temp file removed
when Path.replace raises (simulated disk full)
180 codex-runtime tests, all green (+6 from this commit).
Footguns audited but NOT fixed (with rationale):
- Concurrent migrations race. Two Hermes processes hitting
/codex-runtime codex_app_server within seconds of each other could
cause one writer to lose entries. Low probability (you'd have to
enable from two surfaces simultaneously) and low impact (just re-run
migration). Adding fcntl/msvcrt locking is more code than it's
worth here. The atomic rename above means each individual write is
consistent — only the merge step is racy.
- Codex protocol version drift. We pin MIN_CODEX_VERSION=0.125 and
check at runtime but don't reject too-new versions. Right call —
the protocol has been stable through 0.125 → 0.130. If OpenAI
breaks it later we'd see the error in test_codex_app_server_runtime
on CI before users hit it.
Keep the outer history_offset when _run_agent drains queued follow-ups recursively so transcript persistence includes every queued turn in the chain instead of only the last one.
Only Discord and Telegram had lazy-install hooks in their
check_*_requirements() functions. The remaining four platforms that were
moved to lazy_deps (Slack, Matrix, DingTalk, Feishu) would just return
False immediately if their packages weren't pre-installed — no attempt
to install them at runtime.
This means even with the .venv permissions fix (#24841), these four
platforms would still fail to load in Docker (or any fresh install)
unless the user manually ran pip install.
Add the same lazy_deps.ensure() pattern to all four, matching the
existing Discord/Telegram implementation.
Default timeout raised from 60s to 300s (5 minutes) to accommodate
slower systems like Unraid NAS. Configurable via WHATSAPP_NPM_INSTALL_TIMEOUT
environment variable.
The WeCom adapter's _listen_loop() automatically reconnects when the
WebSocket drops, but it never called _mark_connected() after a successful
reconnection. This left the runtime status file (gateway_state.json) stuck
in "disconnected" even though the adapter was fully operational again.
Add self._mark_connected() right after _open_connection() succeeds so
that the dashboard and health probes report the correct state.
Tested by forcing a WebSocket close via the heartbeat loop and verifying
that the status file updated from "disconnected" back to "connected".
PR #23458 introduced _send_message_with_thread_fallback() and applied it
to all control-style sends (send_update_prompt, send_approval_request,
send_model_picker_prompt), but the slash-confirm result message in
handle_callback_query still called self._bot.send_message directly.
In supergroups with stale message_thread_id on the callback's parent
message, this raises "Message thread not found" and silently swallows
the result text. Replace with the helper so the same retry-without-
thread-id logic applies.
Closes#23064
When Hermes connects to Signal via signal-cli in daemon mode (linked
device setup), group messages sent from the user's phone were silently
dropped. The syncMessage handler only processed events where
destinationNumber equals the bot's own number (Note to Self).
Group messages from linked devices carry a groupInfo.groupId instead of a
destinationNumber. Extend the condition to also pass through sync messages
that have a groupId, so group messages are promoted to dataMessage and
reach the agent.
Salvage of #21063 — adds 'Weixin, and more' to module-level docstrings
in gateway/__init__.py, gateway/config.py, gateway/platforms/base.py
and the 'hermes gateway' subparser description.

When the user runs /stop or a session is interrupted mid-flight, the
👀 in-progress reaction lingered on the user's message indefinitely.
Without another agent run to swap it for 👍/👎, the eyes stayed there
forever — visually misleading (looks like the agent is still working).
Fix: on ProcessingOutcome.CANCELLED, call set_message_reaction with
reaction=None to clear all reactions on the message. Documented Bot API
semantics (equivalent to Bot API 10.0's deleteMessageReaction, but works
on PTB 22.6 already without the version bump).
Test changes:
- Renamed test_on_processing_complete_cancelled_keeps_existing_reaction
→ test_on_processing_complete_cancelled_clears_reaction; updated
assertion to expect set_message_reaction(reaction=None).
- Added test_on_processing_complete_cancelled_skipped_when_disabled
(TELEGRAM_REACTIONS=false short-circuits).
- Added test_clear_reactions_handles_api_error_gracefully and
test_clear_reactions_returns_false_without_bot to cover the new
_clear_reactions helper.
The clarify tool returned 'not available in this execution context' for
every gateway-mode agent because gateway/run.py never passed
clarify_callback into the AIAgent constructor. Schema actively encouraged
calling it; users never saw the question.
Changes:
- tools/clarify_gateway.py — new event-based primitive mirroring
tools/approval.py: register/wait_for_response/resolve_gateway_clarify
with per-session FIFO, threading.Event blocking with 1s heartbeat
slices (so the inactivity watchdog keeps ticking), and
clear_session for boundary cleanup.
- gateway/platforms/base.py — abstract send_clarify with a numbered-text
fallback so every adapter (Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix,
etc.) gets a working clarify out of the box. Plus an active-session
bypass: when the agent is blocked on a text-awaiting clarify, the next
non-command message routes inline to the runner's intercept instead
of being queued + triggering an interrupt. Same shape as the /approve
deadlock fix from PR #4926.
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py — concrete send_clarify renders one
inline button per choice plus '✏️ Other (type answer)'. cl: callback
handler resolves numeric choices immediately, flips to text-capture
mode for Other, with the same authorization guards as exec/slash
approvals.
- gateway/run.py — clarify_callback wired at the cached-agent per-turn
callback assignment site (only the user-facing agent path; cron and
hygiene-compress agents have no human attached). Bridges sync→async
via run_coroutine_threadsafe, blocks with the configured timeout, and
returns a '[user did not respond within Xm]' sentinel on timeout so
the agent adapts rather than pinning the running-agent guard. Text-
intercept added to _handle_message before slash-confirm intercept
(skipping slash commands). clear_session called in the run's finally
to cancel any orphan entries.
- hermes_cli/config.py — agent.clarify_timeout default 600s.
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/telegram.md — Interactive Prompts
section.
Tests:
- tests/tools/test_clarify_gateway.py (14 tests) — full primitive
coverage: button resolve, open-ended auto-await, Other flip, timeout
None, unknown-id idempotency, clear_session cancellation, FIFO
ordering, register/unregister notify, config default.
- tests/gateway/test_telegram_clarify_buttons.py (12 tests) — render
paths (multi-choice/open-ended/long-label/HTML-escape/not-connected),
callback dispatch (numeric resolve/Other flip/already-resolved/
unauthorized/invalid-token), and base-adapter text fallback.
Out of scope: bot-to-bot, guest mode, checklists, poll media, live
photos. Closes#24191.
PR #24500 introduced stale-lock detection that calls
`_looks_like_gateway_process` to confirm a running PID is not an
unrelated process that reused the slot. On Windows neither `/proc`
nor `ps` is available, so `_read_process_cmdline` always returns
`None` and `_looks_like_gateway_process` always returns `False` —
causing every valid Windows gateway lock to be marked stale and
immediately evicted.
Fix: after `_looks_like_gateway_process` returns `False`, call
`_read_process_cmdline` directly. If the result is non-`None` the
live cmdline was readable and confirms the PID is foreign → stale.
If it is `None` (cmdline unreadable, e.g. Windows without ps), fall
back to `_record_looks_like_gateway` which validates the stored
`argv` the gateway wrote into the lock file at startup. Both
oracles must say "not a gateway" before the lock is evicted — the
same two-oracle pattern already used in `get_running_pid` (line 941).
Adds a regression test that simulates a Windows host where
`_looks_like_gateway_process` returns `False` for every PID and
`_read_process_cmdline` returns `None`, confirming the lock is kept
when the record's argv identifies it as a gateway process.
On macOS (and Windows), /proc is unavailable so _get_process_start_time()
always returns None. When a gateway creates a scoped lock record with
start_time=None and then exits, macOS can reuse that PID for an unrelated
process. On restart, acquire_scoped_lock() sees:
1. os.kill(pid, 0) succeeds (PID is alive — but it's bluetoothuserd, not
the gateway)
2. existing.start_time is None and current_start is None, so the
start_time comparison is inconclusive
3. The lock is treated as active, blocking gateway startup with:
"Telegram bot token already in use (PID 873). Stop the other gateway
first."
Root cause: _read_process_cmdline() only reads /proc/<pid>/cmdline, which
doesn't exist on macOS. It always returns None, making
_looks_like_gateway_process() always return False, so the cmdline fallback
path in acquire_scoped_lock() was unreachable on macOS.
Fix (two parts):
1. _read_process_cmdline(): Add a ps(1) fallback for platforms without
/proc. When /proc/<pid>/cmdline doesn't exist, we now run
"ps -p <pid> -o command=" to retrieve the process command line. The
/proc path is tried first (preserving Linux performance); ps is only
invoked as a fallback.
2. acquire_scoped_lock(): When both the lock record's start_time and the
live process's start_time are None (the macOS case), fall back to
checking whether the live PID still looks like a Hermes gateway process
via _looks_like_gateway_process(). If it doesn't, the lock is stale.
Closes#16376
* feat(security): supply-chain advisory checker + lazy-install framework + tiered install fallback
Three coordinated mitigations for the Mini Shai-Hulud worm hitting
mistralai 2.4.6 on PyPI (2026-05-12) and for the next single-package
compromise that follows.
# What this PR makes true
1. Users with the poisoned mistralai 2.4.6 in their venv get a loud
detection banner with copy-pasteable remediation steps the moment
they run hermes (and on every gateway startup).
2. One quarantined / yanked PyPI package can no longer silently demote
a fresh install to 'core only' — the installer keeps every other
extra and tells the user which tier landed.
3. Future opt-in backends (Mistral, ElevenLabs, Honcho, etc.) can
lazy-install on first use under a strict allowlist, instead of
eagerly pulling everything at install time.
# Detection: hermes_cli/security_advisories.py
- ADVISORIES catalog (one entry currently: shai-hulud-2026-05 for
mistralai==2.4.6). Adding the next one is a single dataclass.
- detect_compromised() uses importlib.metadata.version() — no pip
dependency, works in uv venvs that lack pip.
- Banner cache (~/.hermes/cache/advisory_banner_seen) rate-limits
the startup banner to once per 24h per advisory.
- Acks persisted to security.acked_advisories in config.yaml; never
re-banner after ack.
- Wired into:
* hermes doctor — runs first, prints full remediation block
* hermes doctor --ack <id> — dismisses an advisory
* cli.py interactive run() and single-query branches — short
stderr banner pointing at hermes doctor
* gateway/run.py startup — operator-visible warning in gateway.log
# Lazy-install framework: tools/lazy_deps.py
- LAZY_DEPS allowlist maps namespaced feature keys (tts.elevenlabs,
memory.honcho, provider.bedrock, etc.) to pip specs.
- ensure(feature) installs missing deps in the active venv via the
uv → pip → ensurepip ladder (matches tools_config._pip_install).
- Strict spec safety regex rejects URLs, file paths, shell metas,
pip flag injection, control chars — only PyPI-by-name accepted.
- Gated on security.allow_lazy_installs (default true) plus the
HERMES_DISABLE_LAZY_INSTALLS env var for restricted/audited envs.
- Migrated three backends as proof of pattern:
* tools/tts_tool.py — _import_elevenlabs() calls ensure first
* plugins/memory/honcho/client.py — get_honcho_client lazy-installs
* tts.mistral / stt.mistral entries pre-registered for when PyPI
restores mistralai
# Installer fallback tiers
scripts/install.sh, scripts/install.ps1, setup-hermes.sh:
- Centralised _BROKEN_EXTRAS list (currently: mistral). Edit one
array when a transitive breaks; users keep every other extra.
- New 'all minus known-broken' tier between [all] and the existing
PyPI-only-extras tier. Only kicks in when [all] fails resolve.
- All three tiers explicit: every fallback announces which tier
landed and prints a re-run hint when not on Tier 1.
- install.ps1 and install.sh both regenerate their tier specs from
the same _BROKEN_EXTRAS array so updates stay in sync.
Side effect: install.ps1 Tier 2 spec previously hardcoded 'mistral'
in its extra list — bug fixed by the refactor (mistral is filtered
out).
# Config
hermes_cli/config.py — DEFAULT_CONFIG.security gains:
- acked_advisories: [] (advisory IDs the user has dismissed)
- allow_lazy_installs: True (security gate for ensure())
No config version bump needed — both keys nest under existing
security: block, and load_config's deep-merge picks up DEFAULT_CONFIG
defaults for users with older configs.
# Tests
tests/hermes_cli/test_security_advisories.py — 23 tests covering:
- detect_compromised matches/non-matches, wildcard frozenset
- ack persistence, idempotence, blank rejection, config-failure path
- banner cache rate limiting + 24h re-banner + ack-stops-banner
- short_banner_lines / full_remediation_text / render_doctor_section /
gateway_log_message
- shipped catalog well-formedness invariant
tests/tools/test_lazy_deps.py — 40 tests covering:
- spec safety: 11 safe parametrized + 18 unsafe parametrized
- allowlist: unknown-feature rejection, namespace.name shape,
every shipped spec passes the safety regex
- security gating: config flag, env var, default, fail-open
- ensure() happy/sad paths: already-satisfied, install success,
pip stderr surfaced on failure, install-succeeds-but-still-missing
- is_available, feature_install_command
Combined: 63 new tests, all passing under scripts/run_tests.sh.
# Validation
- scripts/run_tests.sh tests/hermes_cli/test_security_advisories.py

* build(deps): pin every direct dep to ==X.Y.Z (no ranges)
Companion to the supply-chain advisory work: replace every >=/</~= range
in pyproject.toml's [project.dependencies] and [project.optional-dependencies]
with an exact ==X.Y.Z pin sourced from uv.lock.
Why: ranges allow PyPI to ship a fresh version of any direct dep at any
time without a code review on our side. With ranges, the malicious
mistralai 2.4.6 release would have been pulled by every fresh
'pip install -e .[all]' for the hours between upload and PyPI's
quarantine — exactly the install window we got hit on. Exact pins close
that window: the only way a new package version reaches a user is via
an intentional update on our end.
What the user-facing change is: nothing, behavior-wise. Every package
resolves to the same version it was already resolving to via uv.lock —
the pins just remove the resolver's freedom to pick a different one.
Cost: any user installing Hermes alongside another package that requires
a newer pin gets a resolver conflict. Acceptable for our isolated-venv
install path; documented in the new comment block.
Build-system requires line (setuptools>=61.0) is intentionally left
as a range — pinning the build backend would block fresh pip from
bootstrapping the build on architectures where that exact wheel isn't
available.
mistral extra (mistralai==2.3.0) is pinned but stays out of [all]
(per PR #24205). 'uv lock' regeneration will fail until PyPI restores
mistralai; lockfile regeneration is gated behind that, NOT on every PR.
LAZY_DEPS in tools/lazy_deps.py also moved to exact pins so the lazy-
install pathway can never resolve a different version than the one
declared in pyproject.toml.
Validation:
- Cross-checked all 77 pinned direct deps in pyproject.toml against
uv.lock — every pin matches the resolved version exactly.
- Cross-checked all LAZY_DEPS specs against uv.lock — same.
- 'uv pip install -e .[all] --dry-run' resolves 205 packages cleanly.
- tests/tools/test_lazy_deps.py + tests/hermes_cli/test_security_advisories.py
→ 63/63 passing (every shipped spec passes the safety regex).
- Doctor + TTS + transcription targeted suite → 146/146 passing.
* build(deps): hash-verify transitives via uv.lock; remove unresolvable [mistral] extra
You asked: 'what about the dependencies the dependencies rely on?' —
correctly noting that exact-pinning direct deps in pyproject.toml does
NOT cover the transitive graph. `pip install` and `uv pip install` both
re-resolve transitives fresh from PyPI at install time, so a compromised
transitive (e.g. `httpcore` if it got worm-poisoned tomorrow) would
still hit our users even with every direct dep exact-pinned.
# What this commit fixes
1. **Both real installer scripts now prefer `uv sync --locked` as Tier 0.**
uv.lock records SHA256 hashes for every transitive — a compromised
package with a different hash gets REJECTED. Falls through to the
existing `uv pip install` cascade if the lockfile is missing or
stale, with a loud warning that the fallback path does NOT
hash-verify transitives. Previously only `setup-hermes.sh` (the dev
path) used the lockfile; `scripts/install.sh` and `scripts/install.ps1`
(the paths fresh users actually run) skipped it.
2. **Removed the `[mistral]` extra entirely.** The `mistralai` PyPI
project is fully quarantined right now — every version returns 404,
so any pin we wrote was unresolvable, which broke `uv lock --check`
in CI. Restoration is documented in pyproject.toml as a 5-step
checklist (verify, re-add extra, re-enable in 4 modules, regenerate
lock, optionally re-add to [all]).
3. **Regenerated uv.lock.** 262 packages, mistralai/eval-type-backport/
jsonpath-python pruned. `uv lock --check` now passes.
# Defense-in-depth view
| Layer | Where | Protects against |
|----------------------------|-------------------|-------------------------------------------|
| Exact pins in pyproject | direct deps | new mistralai 2.4.6-style direct compromise |
| uv.lock + `--locked` install | transitive graph | transitive worm injection |
| Tier-0 hash-verified path | install.sh / .ps1 | actually USE the lockfile in fresh installs |
| `uv lock --check` CI gate | every PR | drift between pyproject and lockfile |
| `hermes_cli/security_advisories.py` | runtime | cleanup for users who already got hit |
The exact pinning + hash verification together close the supply-chain
gap. Without the lockfile path, exact pins alone are theater.
# Validation
- `uv lock --check` → passes (262 packages resolved, no drift).
- `bash -n` on install.sh + setup-hermes.sh → OK.
- 209/209 tests passing across new + adjacent test files
(test_lazy_deps.py, test_security_advisories.py, test_doctor.py,
test_tts_mistral.py, test_transcription_tools.py).
- TOML parse OK.
* chore: remove community announcement drafts (PR body covers it)
* build(deps): lazy-install every opt-in backend (anthropic, search, terminal, platforms, dashboard)
Extends the lazy-install framework to cover everything that's not used by
every hermes session. Base install drops from ~60 packages to 45.
Moved out of core dependencies = []:
- anthropic (only when provider=anthropic native, not via aggregators)
- exa-py, firecrawl-py, parallel-web (search backends; only when picked)
- fal-client (image gen; only when picked)
- edge-tts (default TTS but still optional)
New extras in pyproject.toml: [anthropic] [exa] [firecrawl] [parallel-web]
[fal] [edge-tts]. All added to [all].
New LAZY_DEPS entries: provider.anthropic, search.{exa,firecrawl,parallel},
tts.edge, image.fal, memory.hindsight, platform.{telegram,discord,matrix},
terminal.{modal,daytona,vercel}, tool.dashboard.
Each import site now calls ensure() before importing the SDK. Where the
module had a top-level try/except (telegram, discord, fastapi), the
graceful-fallback pattern was extended to lazy-install on first
check_*_requirements() call and re-bind module globals.
Updated test_windows_native_support.py tzdata check from snapshot
(>=2023.3 literal) to invariant (any version + win32 marker).
Validation:
- Base install: 45 packages (was ~60); 6 newly-extracted packages absent
- uv lock --check: passes (262 packages, no drift)
- 209/209 lazy_deps + advisory + doctor + tts/transcription tests passing
- py_compile clean on all 12 modified modules
Set HERMES_SESSION_ID using the existing session_context.py ContextVar
system for concurrency safety (multiple gateway sessions in one process
won't cross-talk). Also writes os.environ as fallback for CLI mode.
Touchpoints:
- gateway/session_context.py: Add _SESSION_ID ContextVar + _VAR_MAP entry
- run_agent.py: Set both ContextVar and os.environ at init and on
context-compression rotation
- tools/environments/local.py: Bridge ContextVars into subprocess env
in _make_run_env() (ContextVars don't propagate to child processes)
- tests/run_agent/test_session_id_env.py: 3 tests covering env, provided
ID, and ContextVar paths
execute_code subprocess already passes HERMES_* prefixed vars through
_scrub_child_env (line 82: _SAFE_ENV_PREFIXES includes 'HERMES_').
Primary use case: webhook-triggered agents that need to include a
`--resume <session_id>` takeover command in their output.
Replace with for all literal-tuple
membership tests. Set lookup is O(1) vs O(n) for tuple — consistent
micro-optimization across the codebase.
608 instances fixed via `ruff --fix --unsafe-fixes`, 0 remaining.

When the Discord typing API call fails (rate limit, network error, 403),
_typing_loop returns early but the stale task remains in _typing_tasks.
Subsequent send_typing calls see the stale entry and skip, leaving no
typing indicator for the rest of the agent invocation.
Add finally block to _typing_loop to always remove the task from
_typing_tasks on exit, whether from cancellation, error, or normal
completion. This allows send_typing to create a fresh task.
3 new tests in test_discord_send.py:
- Task removed after API error
- Typing restartable after failure
- stop_typing cleans up
Salvages the three substantive low-severity fixes from Gutslabs' #1974
"misc bug fixes" bundle. The other 8 claims in that PR were either
already fixed on main with superior implementations (state lock,
firecrawl lazy import, fcntl/msvcrt guard, path normalization, schema
migrations) or did not survive review.
- run_agent: `_materialize_data_url_for_vision` uses
`NamedTemporaryFile(delete=False)`; if `base64.b64decode` raises on a
corrupt data URL the temp file would persist forever. Wrap the
write in try/except and `os.unlink` the temp on failure.
- gateway/session: `append_to_transcript` JSONL write had no error
handling, so disk-full / read-only-fs / permission errors crashed the
message handler. The SQLite write above is the primary store, so
swallow OSError on the JSONL fallback with a debug log.
- gateway/status: `_read_pid_record` reads `pid_path.read_text()` after
an `exists()` check; if the PID file is deleted between the two
calls (concurrent gateway restart) we hit an unhandled OSError.
Catch it and return None.
Adds a regression test for the tempfile cleanup; the other two paths
are defensive try/excepts on infrequent OSError that don't warrant
dedicated tests.

original branch is 3800+ commits stale and could not be cherry-picked
without reverting unrelated work; this change carries only the perf
intent forward.
Tuning summary
==============
Text-batch ingress (gateway/platforms/telegram.py):
- HERMES_TELEGRAM_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS default 0.6 -> 0.3
- HERMES_TELEGRAM_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT_DELAY_SECONDS default 2.0 -> 1.0
- Adaptive fast-path tiers in _flush_text_batch:
total <= 320 cp -> min(cap, 0.18)
total <= 1024 cp -> min(cap, 0.24)
else -> cap
A single short reply now reaches the agent in ~180ms instead of
600ms. Tier constants compose with the configured cap via min()
so an operator who tightens HERMES_TELEGRAM_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS
below 0.18 still wins on every tier.
- _env_float_clamped helper replaces bare float(os.getenv()).
Rejects NaN / Inf, applies optional min/max bounds. Used for
text-batch + media-batch knobs. Prevents asyncio.sleep(NaN)
crashes when an operator typos an env var.
Stream cadence (gateway/config.py + stream_consumer.py):
- StreamingConfig.edit_interval default 1.0s -> 0.8s
- StreamingConfig.buffer_threshold default 40 -> 24 chars
- DEFAULT_STREAMING_EDIT_INTERVAL / BUFFER_THRESHOLD / CURSOR are now
a single source of truth. StreamConsumerConfig imports them
instead of duplicating the literals; the prior dual-source drift
is fixed.
Tool progress (gateway/display_config.py):
- Telegram default tool_progress 'all' -> 'new'. Inside
Telegram's ~1 edit/s flood envelope the 'all' default would
accumulate edit pressure on busy chats; 'new' shows only the
leading bubble per tool batch and feels less spammy.
- Slack tier_low override (tool_progress='off') is preserved.
Composition with native draft streaming (#23512)
================================================
The mid-stream cadence (edit_interval, buffer_threshold) gates BOTH
the draft path (send_draft) and the edit path (edit_message), so the
tighter cadence helps native draft as much as edit-based. The
text-batch fast-path applies before the consumer starts, so it speeds
up the first-token latency on every transport. No conflict.
Stale-base avoidance
====================
Re-authored from scratch rather than cherry-picked. Dropped from the
original branch:
- Unrelated d2f043f9c 'fix(anthropic): preserve third-party thinking
continuity' commit
- boot_md.py builtin gateway hook (unrelated)
- Reverted Slack tool_progress='off' (#14663) restoration
- Reverted Platform plugin discovery, MSGRAPH_WEBHOOK, YUANBAO
members deletion
- 2300+ lines of run.py base-skew noise
Tests
=====
New tests/gateway/test_telegram_text_batch_perf.py:
- 7 tests for _env_float_clamped (NaN, Inf, garbage, bounds).
- 4 tests for the adaptive-tier composition rules.
Updated tests/gateway/test_display_config.py:
- test_platform_default_when_no_user_config: 'all' -> 'new' for
Telegram, with comment.
- test_high_tier_platforms: split into Telegram-overrides-to-new
and Discord-stays-all assertions.
Closes#10388.

1. Quick command exec ran in the gateway process's full environment
without env sanitization or output redaction. A quick command like
"env" or "printenv" would leak all API keys, OAuth tokens, and
bot credentials to the messaging user.
Fix: apply _sanitize_subprocess_env() before exec and
redact_sensitive_text() on output before returning.
2. GatewayRunner._pending_messages was written on every interrupt
(lines 1331-1334) but never read or consumed anywhere. The actual
interrupt delivery uses adapter._pending_messages (a separate dict).
Removed the write-only accumulation to prevent unbounded growth.
When edit_message_text exceeded Telegram's 4096 UTF-16 codepoint limit,
the adapter caught the BadRequest, best-effort truncated the content
with '…', and returned SendResult(success=True). The stream consumer
believed the full edit was delivered and never recovered, silently
dropping everything past the truncation boundary on long replies.
Returning failure isn't safe either — the consumer's existing fallback
path can race against the next streaming tick, producing duplicate
sends or gaps. Instead, the adapter now SPLITS the oversized payload
across the existing message + new continuation messages, so the user
always gets the full reply in correct order.
How it works:
1. Pre-flight: if utf16_len(content) already exceeds MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH,
call the new _edit_overflow_split helper directly — saves a doomed
round-trip + a Telegram error.
2. Reactive: if Telegram still returns 'message_too_long' after the
pre-flight (e.g. parse_mode formatting inflated the payload past
the limit via MarkdownV2 escapes), the same helper handles it.
3. _edit_overflow_split:
- Splits via truncate_message(len_fn=utf16_len) — same chunking the
non-streaming send() path uses; chunks get '(1/N)' suffixes.
- Edits the original message_id with chunk 1 (with parse_mode +
plain-fallback when finalize=True, mirroring the main edit path).
- Sends each remaining chunk via self._bot.send_message threaded as
a reply to the previous chunk so the user sees them as a
contiguous block. MarkdownV2-with-plain-fallback per chunk on
finalize.
- Returns SendResult(success=True, message_id=<last_chunk_id>,
continuation_message_ids=(<chunk2_id>, <chunk3_id>, ...)) so the
stream consumer can keep editing the most recent visible message
and the gateway has full visibility into every message id.
SendResult contract extension:
Added optional continuation_message_ids: tuple = () field. When
empty (the common case), behavior is unchanged. When populated, the
caller knows the adapter delivered across multiple platform messages.
Stream consumer integration:
GatewayStreamConsumer._send_or_edit advances _message_id to the
last-continuation id when it sees continuation_message_ids on a
successful edit result, resets _last_sent_text (the new visible
message holds only the final chunk's text), and fires
on_new_message so tool-progress bubbles linearize below the new
continuation rather than the original. Mirrors the openclaw #32535
inter-tool-leak guard.
Composes with what just landed:
- PR #23455 (UTF-16 length-aware splitting in stream consumer)
prevents most overflows upstream by measuring text in UTF-16
codeunits before deciding to split. This PR is the safety net at
the adapter boundary.
- PR #23512 (native draft streaming, default for DM Telegram) routes
DM streaming through send_draft, which has its own contract
unaffected by this change. So this fix narrows in scope to the
edit-based path: groups, supergroups, forum topics, every
non-Telegram platform, and the per-response fallback after a
draft failure.
Salvage notes:
- Cherry-picked from PR #19537 by @kjames2001. Original PR returned
failure on overflow; this evolves to split-and-deliver so users
never lose content and the consumer state stays consistent.
- Dropped an unrelated model-picker hunk (line 2114-2117) that
silently killed the 'X more available — type /model <name>
directly' hint by hardcoding total=len(models). Not in scope.
- Restored the timeout-aware retryable=not is_timeout signal in
send()'s fallthrough catch block.
Closes#19537.
Adds Telegram's native streaming-draft API as a streaming transport so DM
replies render with smooth animated previews as tokens arrive, dropping
the per-edit jitter of the legacy editMessageText polling path.
Adapter contract (gateway/platforms/base.py):
- supports_draft_streaming(chat_type, metadata) -> bool. Default False.
Telegram returns True only for DMs and only when the bound python-
telegram-bot version exposes Bot.send_message_draft (PTB 22.6+).
- send_draft(chat_id, draft_id, content, metadata) -> SendResult.
Default raises NotImplementedError. Telegram delegates to PTB's
send_message_draft. Drafts have no message_id (Bot API contract);
SendResult.message_id is None on success.
Telegram adapter (gateway/platforms/telegram.py):
- supports_draft_streaming gates on chat_type='dm' AND PTB capability.
- send_draft trims to MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH using utf16_len, threads
message_thread_id through metadata, and routes failures back as
SendResult(success=False, error=...) so the consumer can fall back.
Stream consumer (gateway/stream_consumer.py):
- StreamConsumerConfig gains transport ('auto'|'draft'|'edit'|'off')
and chat_type fields.
- run() resolves _use_draft_streaming once via a probe at the top of
the run, allocating a fresh class-wide draft_id_counter so each
response animates as its own preview (no animation collision across
consecutive responses to the same chat).
- _send_or_edit gains a pre-edit branch: when drafts are active AND
not finalizing AND no edit-path message_id is established, the
frame routes through _send_draft_frame instead of edit_message.
Drafts intentionally do NOT set _already_sent so the gateway's
final sendMessage path still fires — drafts have no message_id and
the user needs a real message in their chat history.
- _reset_segment_state bumps the draft_id when the consumer is in
draft mode so each text block after a tool boundary animates as a
fresh preview below the tool-progress bubble (avoids the inter-
tool-call leak openclaw documented in their #32535).
- Per-response fallback: any send_draft failure (transient network,
server reject, capability gap) flips _use_draft_streaming to False
for the rest of the run, gracefully returning to the edit path.
Gateway config (gateway/config.py):
- StreamingConfig.transport default flips edit -> auto. The auto path
is identical to edit on every chat type that doesn't currently
support drafts (groups, supergroups, forum topics, every non-
Telegram platform), so the default is backwards-compatible for
non-DM users.
Lifecycle model (Telegram Bot API 9.5):
1. sendMessageDraft(chat_id, draft_id, text='') opens the bubble.
2. Repeated sendMessageDraft calls with the SAME draft_id animate
the preview as text grows.
3. Drafts have no message_id and cannot be edited or deleted.
4. When the response finishes the gateway's normal sendMessage path
delivers the final answer; the draft preview clears naturally on
the client and the user sees a real message in their history.
Inspired by PR #3412 by @NivOO5. Re-authored against current main
(stream_consumer.py is now ~4x larger than at #3412's branch base, with
new _NEW_SEGMENT/_COMMENTARY/finalize/_on_new_message machinery the
original PR didn't account for) but the design call (DM-only, edit-
fallback, transport=auto|draft|edit|off) is faithful to the original
proposal, with two improvements baked in:
1. Per-response draft_id (monotonic counter, not a time hash) — no
collision risk across consecutive responses on the same chat.
2. Tool-boundary draft_id bump — prevents the inter-tool-call leak
openclaw hit during their rollout (their #32535).
Closes#21439 (duplicate feature request).
Cherry-picked from PR #10371. Two-layer defense for the spurious-thread_id
issue (#3206):
1. _build_message_event filters DM thread_ids: only preserve thread_id
for real topic messages (is_topic_message=True). Telegram puts
message_thread_id on every DM that is a reply, but reply-chain ids
route to nonexistent threads on send.
2. _send_message_with_thread_fallback helper: control sends
(send_update_prompt, send_exec_approval / send_slash_confirm,
send_model_picker) retry once without message_thread_id when
Telegram returns BadRequest 'Message thread not found'. Mirrors
the pattern PR #3390 added for the streaming send path.
Salvage notes:
- Conflict 1 (line ~4099): merged the contributor's DM is_topic_message
filter with the existing forum General-topic default from #22423,
preserving both behaviors.
- Conflict 2 (line ~1664 / 1690): kept main's delete_message (PR #23416)
alongside the new helper. Tightened the helper's exception catch
from bare 'Exception' to use the existing _is_bad_request_error +
_is_thread_not_found_error helpers (line 484-496) for consistency
with the streaming send path.
- Widened the fix to send_update_prompt (was bare self._bot.send_message,
same bug class).

* feat(goals): /goal checklist + /subgoal user controls
Two-phase judge for /goal — Phase A decomposes the goal into a detailed
checklist on first turn; Phase B evaluates each pending item harshly
against the agent's most recent response. The goal completes only when
every item is in a terminal status (completed or impossible). Adds
/subgoal so the user can append, complete, mark impossible, undo,
remove, or clear items the judge missed or got wrong.
Mechanics:
- GoalState gains `checklist` and `decomposed` fields, both backwards
compatible (old state_meta rows load unchanged).
- Phase A: aux call writes a harsh, exhaustive checklist; biased toward
more items not fewer. Falls through to legacy freeform judge when
decompose fails.
- Phase B: judge gets the checklist + last-response snippet + path to
a per-session conversation dump at <HERMES_HOME>/goals/<sid>.json.
A bounded read_file tool (max 5 calls per turn, restricted to that
one file) lets the judge inspect history when the snippet is
ambiguous. Stickiness in code: terminal items are frozen, only the
user can revert via /subgoal undo.
- Continuation prompt shows checklist progress when non-empty;
reverts to old prompt when empty.
- Status line shows M/N done counts.
CLI + gateway + TUI gateway all pass the agent reference into
evaluate_after_turn so the dump can be written. Gateway-side
/subgoal is allowed mid-run since it only modifies the checklist
the judge consults at turn boundaries.
Tests: 24 new cases — backcompat round-trip, Phase A decompose,
Phase B updates + new_items + stickiness, user override flows,
conversation dump (incl. unsafe-sid sanitization), judge read_file
restriction. Existing freeform-mode tests updated to patch the
renamed `judge_goal_freeform` and skip Phase A explicitly.
* fix(goals): off-by-one in judge index, message-list plumbing, prompt tuning
Three live-test findings from running /goal end-to-end against
gemini-3-flash-preview as the judge:
1. Off-by-one bug — the judge sees the checklist rendered with 1-based
indices ('1. [ ] foo, 2. [ ] bar') but the apply layer indexed
state.checklist as 0-based. Result: every judge update landed on
the wrong item, evidence got attached to neighbouring rows, and
the genuine 'first pending' item (usually #1) never got marked.
Fix: convert 1 → 0 in _parse_evaluate_response. Also tightened the
user prompt to call out the 1-based scheme explicitly. New tests
cover the parser conversion + an end-to-end fake-judge round-trip.
2. Conversation dump never happened — _extract_agent_messages tried
common AIAgent attribute names (.messages, .conversation_history,
etc.) but AIAgent doesn't expose the message list as an instance
attribute; it lives inside run_conversation()'s scope. Result: the
judge's read_file tool always saw history_path=unavailable. Fix:
added an explicit messages= kwarg to evaluate_after_turn that all
three call sites (CLI, gateway, TUI gateway) now pass directly.
Agent-attribute extraction kept as back-compat fallback.
3. Prompt was too harsh on simple goals. The original 'be HARSH,
default to leaving items pending' wording made the judge refuse
to mark 'file exists' completed even after the agent ran ls,
test -f, os.path.isfile, and find — burning the entire 8-turn
budget on a fizzbuzz task. Softened to 'strict but not absurd'
with explicit guidance on what counts as evidence and a directive
not to require re-proving items already established earlier.
Re-tested live with the same fizzbuzz goal: now terminates in 2
turns with all 8 checklist items correctly attributed to their
own evidence. /subgoal user-action flow (add / complete / undo /
impossible) verified live as well.
The stream consumer measured message length using Python's len() (Unicode
code points), but Telegram's actual limit is in UTF-16 code units. This
caused messages with supplementary characters (emoji, CJK, etc.) to exceed
Telegram's 4096-character limit, resulting in truncated messages with
formatting artifacts.
Changes:
- Add message_len_fn property to BasePlatformAdapter (defaults to len)
- Override in TelegramAdapter to return utf16_len
- Stream consumer uses adapter.message_len_fn for:
- safe_limit calculation
- overflow detection
- truncate_message calls
- split point calculation (via _custom_unit_to_cp)
- fallback final send chunking
Fixes truncated messages with black square artifacts on Telegram when
the model generates responses containing multi-byte Unicode characters.
The auto-reset notice ("◐ Session automatically reset…") was being sent
with metadata=getattr(event, 'metadata', None), which can drop or
mis-route in Telegram forum topics: the event's metadata isn't
guaranteed to carry the originating thread_id, so the notice could leak
into General or another topic.
Use the existing self._thread_metadata_for_source(source) helper, which
already handles thread_id construction plus the Telegram DM topic
reply-fallback shape used everywhere else in the gateway.
Carve-out of #7404. The PR's other hunk (line 7578, queued first
response) is already redundant on main — gateway/run.py:15782 has used
_status_thread_metadata since the _thread_metadata_for_source plumbing
landed.
Closes#7355 (path B; paths A and C closed via prior salvage merges).
When the first streamed message exceeds the platform length limit and
gets split into chunks, _send_new_chunk was called with self._message_id
(which is None on first send), dropping thread routing entirely.
Fallback to self._initial_reply_to_id so overflow chunks land in the
correct topic/thread.
Also fix a fragile test assertion that could be silently skipped.
Cherry-picked from PR #13077 commits:
- 5500c7d8 fix(gateway): stream consumer first message drops thread context
- e84403b9 test(gateway): add regression tests for stream consumer thread routing
Fixes: Streaming first message drops thread/topic context in Feishu group
topics, Slack threads, Telegram forum topics. Adds initial_reply_to_id
ctor arg to GatewayStreamConsumer, threaded through _send_or_edit and
_send_new_chunk. Also fixes Feishu _send_raw_message fallback path
(reply -> create) to use receive_id_type='thread_id' so the new message
lands in the correct topic instead of the main channel.
Authored by hrygo via PR #13077 (re-attributed from the bot-authored
salvage commit on the original branch).
The split-overflow path in _send_or_edit (gateway/stream_consumer.py) was
copying the cumulative _already_sent flag into _final_response_sent on the
done frame. _already_sent goes True on any successful prior edit (tool
progress) or on fallback-mode promotion when an edit fails — neither
proves the *current* chunked send delivered the final answer.
When the chunked send actually fails (network error, flood control), the
consumer would wrongly claim 'final delivered' and the gateway's
independent fallback delivery in run.py would be suppressed. User saw
only tool-progress bubbles and never got the answer.
Now we track per-chunk success locally: _send_new_chunk returns the new
message_id on success or returns the passed-in reply_to unchanged on
failure. If at least one returned id differs, chunks_delivered = True;
otherwise stays False, gateway fallback runs.
Adds two regression tests:
- test_split_overflow_failed_send_does_not_mark_final_sent — primes
_already_sent=True, then makes every send fail; asserts
_final_response_sent stays False.
- test_split_overflow_partial_send_marks_final_sent — happy path,
asserts _final_response_sent goes True.
Note: the companion bug at the CancelledError handler (issue cited
lines 417-418) was already fixed by 3b5572ded on 2026-04-16.
Closes#10748
The kanban notifier was re-firing the same blocked/gave_up/crashed/timed_out
notifications on every 5-second tick. Root cause: after delivering a terminal
event, the notifier unsubscribed the subscription, deleting its cursor. If
the unsub failed (WAL contention, transient error), the subscription survived
with a stale cursor, and the next tick would re-deliver the same event.
Even when the unsub succeeded, the subscription was gone. If the task later
transitioned to a different state (e.g., blocked -> unblocked -> blocked
again), a new subscription would start at cursor=0, re-delivering all past
events.
Fix: stop unsubscribing on terminal event kinds. Only remove the subscription
when the task reaches a truly final status (done/archived). For blocked,
gave_up, crashed, and timed_out, the subscription stays alive and the cursor
mechanism deduplicates naturally -- events with id <= last_event_id are never
re-fetched. This makes the dedup idempotent and eliminates the re-fire bug.
The old concern about subscriptions leaking forever on blocked tasks is moot:
blocked tasks will eventually be unblocked (transitioning to ready/running)
or archived, at which point the subscription is cleaned up.
Follow-up to HuangYuChuh's #17384 cherry-pick:
- Use defensive getattr+logger.debug for delete_message lookup, mirroring
the sibling _try_send_fresh_final cleanup pattern at L820+. Platforms
that don't implement delete_message no longer raise AttributeError; the
failure path now logs at debug for diagnosability instead of silently
swallowing.
- Add three regression tests in tests/gateway/test_stream_consumer.py:
- delete_message awaited on happy-path exit with stale id
- delete_message NOT awaited when no fallback chunks reached the user
- no crash on adapters that lack delete_message (spec-restricted mock)
When Telegram flood control triggers 3+ consecutive edit failures, the
stream consumer enters fallback mode and sends the complete response as
a new message. This leaves the user seeing two messages: a frozen
partial (with cursor) and the full duplicate.
After the fallback chunks are sent successfully, delete the original
partial message so the user only sees one complete response. The delete
is best-effort — if it fails (e.g. flood still active, missing
permissions), the full answer is still delivered.
Fixes#16668
Two follow-up improvements to the previous commit's notifier dedup work.
1. Add a regression test for the send-exception rewind path. The
contributor's PR included a test for the adapter-disconnect path
(test_kanban_notifier_rewinds_claim_if_adapter_disconnects, where
adapter is None at delivery time), but not for the "adapter is
connected, send() raises" path that fires inside the inner try/except
at gateway/run.py:4314. The new test
(test_kanban_notifier_rewinds_claim_on_send_exception) uses a
FailingAdapter that always raises and confirms (a) send was actually
attempted, (b) the claim was rewound, (c) the next call to
unseen_events_for_sub still returns the event for retry.
2. Drop the per-delivery success log from INFO to DEBUG. A busy board
on a multi-platform gateway can produce hundreds of these per day;
that's gateway.log noise that obscures real warnings. Failure paths
stay at WARNING (where you'd want to look when something's wrong)
so we don't lose visibility into transient send issues.
Builds on @kshitijk4poor's CLI handoff stub. The original PR's flow
deferred everything to whenever a real user happened to message the
target platform; this rewrites it so the gateway picks up handoffs
immediately and the destination chat just starts working.
State machine on sessions table replaces the boolean flag:
None -> 'pending' -> 'running' -> ('completed' | 'failed')
plus handoff_error for failure reasons. CLI request_handoff /
get_handoff_state / list_pending_handoffs / claim_handoff /
complete_handoff / fail_handoff helpers wrap the transitions.
CLI side (cli.py): /handoff <platform> validates the platform's home
channel via load_gateway_config, refuses if the agent is mid-turn,
flips the row to 'pending', and poll-blocks (60s) on terminal state.
On 'completed' it prints the /resume hint and exits the CLI like
/quit. On 'failed' or timeout it surfaces the reason and the CLI
session stays intact.
Gateway side (gateway/run.py): new _handoff_watcher background task
scans state.db every 2s, atomically claims pending rows, and runs
_process_handoff for each. _process_handoff:
1. Resolves the platform's home channel.
2. Asks the adapter for a fresh thread via the new
create_handoff_thread(parent_chat_id, name) capability so the
handed-off conversation gets its own scrollback. Adapters that
don't support threads (or fail) return None and the watcher
falls back to the home channel directly.
3. Constructs a SessionSource keyed as 'thread' when a thread was
created, 'dm' otherwise, then session_store.switch_session
re-binds the destination key to the CLI session_id. The full
role-aware transcript replays via load_transcript on the next
turn (no flat-text injection into context_prompt).
4. Forges a synthetic MessageEvent(internal=True) with the handoff
notice and dispatches through _handle_message; the agent runs
against the loaded transcript and adapter.send delivers the
reply.
5. Marks the row 'completed' on success, 'failed' (+error) on any
exception.
Adapter capability (gateway/platforms/base.py): create_handoff_thread
default returns None. Three overrides:
- Telegram (gateway/platforms/telegram.py): wraps _create_dm_topic
so DM topics (Bot API 9.4+) and forum supergroups both work.
- Discord (gateway/platforms/discord.py): parent.create_thread on
text channels with a seed-message + message.create_thread
fallback for permission edge cases. Skips DMs and other
non-thread-capable parents.
- Slack (gateway/platforms/slack.py): posts a seed message and
returns its ts as the thread anchor — Slack threads are
message-anchored.
In thread mode, build_session_key keys the destination without
user_id (thread_sessions_per_user defaults to False) so the synthetic
turn and any later real-user message in the thread share the same
session_key — seamless takeover without race.
CommandDef stays cli_only=True (handoff is initiated from the CLI;
gateway exposes /resume for the reverse direction).
Removed the original PR's _handle_message_with_agent handoff hook
(transcript-as-text injection into context_prompt) and the
send_message_tool notification — both replaced by the watcher path.
Tests rewritten around the new state machine: 13/13 pass.
E2E-validated thread + no-thread paths and the failure path against
real worktree imports with mocked adapters.
Adds /handoff <platform> CLI command that queues the current session for
resume on the configured home channel of any messaging platform.
CLI side:
- /handoff telegram — marks session in shared DB, sends summary to
the Telegram home channel via send_message
- /handoff discord — same for Discord
- Supports telegram, discord, slack, whatsapp, signal, matrix
Gateway side:
- On new session creation, checks for pending handoffs for the
incoming message's platform
- If found, loads the CLI session's full conversation history and
injects it into the context prompt as a handoff transcript
- Agent continues the conversation seamlessly
Files:
- hermes_state.py: handoff_pending, handoff_platform columns + helpers
- cli.py: _handle_handoff_command dispatch + handler
- hermes_cli/commands.py: CommandDef entry
- gateway/run.py: handoff detection in _handle_message_with_agent
- tests/hermes_cli/test_session_handoff.py: 8 tests
* feat(gateway): per-platform admin/user split for slash commands
Adds an opt-in two-list access control on top of the existing per-platform
`allow_from` allowlists, scoped to slash commands only:
- allow_admin_from — full slash command access
- user_allowed_commands — what non-admins may run
- group_allow_admin_from — same, group/channel scope
- group_user_allowed_commands
When `allow_admin_from` is unset for a scope, gating is disabled and every
allowed user keeps full access (backward compat). Plain chat is unaffected.
`/help` and `/whoami` are always reachable so users can see what they
can run.
Gate runs at the slash command dispatch site in gateway/run.py and uses
`is_gateway_known_command()`, so it covers built-in AND plugin-registered
commands through the live registry without per-feature wiring.
Adds `/whoami` showing platform, scope, tier, and runnable commands.
Salvage of PR #4443's permission tier work, scoped down. The full tier
system, tool filtering, audit log, usage tracking, rate limiting,
`/promote` flow, and persistent SQLite stores are not included here —
those can be re-expanded later if needed.

* fix(gateway): close running-agent fast-path bypass + add coverage and central docs
The slash command access gate was only applied at the cold dispatch site
(line ~5921). When an agent was already running, the running-agent
fast-path block (line ~5574) dispatched /restart, /stop, /new, /steer,
/model, /approve, /deny, /agents, /background, /kanban, /goal, /yolo,
/verbose, /footer, /help, /commands, /profile, /update directly
without going through the gate — letting non-admins bypass gating just
because an agent happens to be busy.
Refactored the gate into _check_slash_access() and called from BOTH
paths. /status remains intentionally pre-gate so users can always see
session state.
Also added 18 more dispatch tests covering:
- Running-agent fast-path: blocks non-admin, allows admin, /status
always works
- Alias canonicalization (gate uses canonical name, not user alias)
- Unknown / unregistered commands pass through (don't false-positive)
- DM admin scope-locked when group has its own admin list
- Multi-platform isolation (Discord gated, Telegram unrestricted)
Docs: added Slash Command Access Control section to the central
messaging index page + /whoami row in the chat commands table.

When the gateway received SIGTERM, the shutdown_signal_handler ran a
synchronous 'ps aux' (3s timeout) inside the asyncio event loop, then
asyncio.create_task(runner.stop()). On a busy host that ate 1-3s of
the teardown budget before draining could even start, and the resulting
log line was a multi-line ps dump that didn't tell us who sent the
signal. The shutdown path itself logged 'Stopping gateway...' and then
nothing until 'Gateway stopped' — when systemd SIGKILLed mid-drain,
there was no way to see which phase wedged.
Changes:
- New gateway/shutdown_forensics.py:
* snapshot_shutdown_context(sig) — sub-millisecond /proc-only capture
of signal name, parent pid+name+cmdline, INVOCATION_ID (systemd
marker), loadavg_1m, TracerPid, takeover/planned-stop marker
presence + whether-it-names-self. Pure stdlib, never raises.
* spawn_async_diagnostic(log_path, sig) — detached subprocess with
its own 'timeout 5s', start_new_session=True, writes ps auxf +
pstree + dmesg to ~/.hermes/logs/gateway-shutdown-diag.log.
Returns immediately, can't block the event loop or the cgroup
teardown.
* check_systemd_timing_alignment(drain_timeout) — reads
/proc/self/cgroup for our unit, asks systemctl show for
TimeoutStopUSec, returns mismatch info when the unit's stop
timeout is smaller than restart_drain_timeout + 30s headroom
(the case where systemd SIGKILLs mid-drain).
* _parse_systemd_duration_to_us — covers '90s', '1min 30s',
'500ms', '1h' style values from systemctl show.
* format_context_for_log — single scannable key=value line, parent
cmdline last.
- gateway/run.py shutdown_signal_handler:
* Replaces synchronous ps aux + ad-hoc 'hermes-related lines' filter
with snapshot + detached spawn.
* Always logs 'Shutdown context: signal=... parent_pid=...
parent_cmdline=...' regardless of planned/unexpected so we can
correlate signal source even on planned restarts.
- gateway/run.py _stop_impl:
* Per-phase '+X.XXs' timing for notify_active_sessions, drain
(with drain_seconds, active_at_start, active_now, timed_out),
post-interrupt tool kill, each adapter disconnect (Xs),
all adapters disconnected, final-cleanup tool kill, SessionDB
close, total teardown.
- gateway/run.py start():
* Stale-unit warning at startup when the running systemd unit's
TimeoutStopSec is smaller than the configured drain timeout.
Points the user at 'hermes gateway service install --replace'
to regenerate, or at shortening agent.restart_drain_timeout.
Tests: 30 new in tests/gateway/test_shutdown_forensics.py — snapshot
speed bound, signal name resolution, marker detection self-vs-other,
async diag spawn doesn't block caller, systemd duration parser, and
alignment check returns None outside systemd. Wider tests/gateway/
suite: 5258 passing, 3 pre-existing TTS-routing failures unchanged
on main.
* feat(i18n): localize /model command output
Reported by @tianma8888: when Chinese users run /model, the labels
("Provider:", "Context:", "_session only_", etc.) are still English.
This routes the static prose through the existing i18n catalog so it
follows display.language / HERMES_LANGUAGE.
Changes:
- locales/{en,zh,ja,de,es,fr,tr,uk}.yaml: add 17 keys under
gateway.model.* covering switched/provider/context/max_output/cost/
capabilities/prompt_caching/warning/saved_global/session_only_hint/
current_label/current_tag/more_models_suffix/usage_*.
- gateway/run.py _handle_model_command: replace hardcoded f-strings in
the picker callback, the text-list fallback, and the direct-switch
confirmation block with t("gateway.model.<key>", ...).
What stays English:
- model IDs, provider slugs, capability strings, cost figures, and the
"[Note: model was just switched...]" prepended to the model's next
prompt (LLM-facing, not user-facing).
- The two slightly-different session-only hints unify on a single key
with the em-dash phrasing.
Validation: tests/agent/test_i18n.py 27/27 passing (parity contract
holds), tests/gateway/ -k 'model or i18n' 74/74 passing.
* feat(i18n): localize all gateway slash command outputs
Expands the i18n catalog from 7 strings to 234 keys across 35 gateway
slash command handlers, so non-English users see localized output for
\`/profile\`, \`/status\`, \`/help\`, \`/personality\`, \`/voice\`, \`/reset\`,
\`/agents\`, \`/restart\`, \`/commands\`, \`/goal\`, \`/retry\`, \`/undo\`,
\`/sethome\`, \`/title\`, \`/yolo\`, \`/background\`, \`/approve\`, \`/deny\`,
\`/insights\`, \`/debug\`, \`/rollback\`, \`/reasoning\`, \`/fast\`,
\`/verbose\`, \`/footer\`, \`/compress\`, \`/topic\`, \`/kanban\`,
\`/resume\`, \`/branch\`, \`/usage\`, \`/reload-mcp\`, \`/reload-skills\`,
\`/update\`, \`/stop\` (plus the \`/model\` block already added in the
previous commit).
Reported by @tianma8888 — Chinese users want command output prose in
their language, not just the labels we already had.
Translations are hand-written for all 8 supported locales (en, zh, ja,
de, es, fr, tr, uk), matching each catalog's existing style: full-width
punctuation in zh, em-dashes in zh/ja/uk, French spaced colons,
German noun capitalization, etc.
What stays English (unchanged):
- Identifiers/values: model IDs, file paths, profile names, session IDs,
command flag names like --global, URLs, config keys.
- Backtick code spans: \`/foo\`, \`config.yaml\`.
- Log messages (logger.info/warning/error).
- LLM-facing system notes prepended to next prompt (e.g. [Note: model
was just switched...]).
- Strings produced by external modules (gateway_help_lines,
format_gateway, manual_compression_feedback) — those have their
own surfaces.
New shared keys for cross-handler boilerplate:
- gateway.shared.session_db_unavailable (5 call sites: branch, title,
resume, topic, _disable_telegram_topic_mode_for_chat)
- gateway.shared.session_not_found (1 site)
- gateway.shared.warn_passthrough (2 sites in /title's f"⚠️ {e}" pattern)
YAML gotcha fixed: \`yolo.on\` and \`yolo.off\` were originally written
unquoted, which YAML 1.1 parses as boolean True/False keys. Renamed to
\`yolo.enabled\` / \`yolo.disabled\` for both safety and clarity.
Test fix: tests/agent/test_i18n.py::test_t_missing_key_in_non_english_falls_back_to_english
now resets the catalog cache on teardown, so the fake "foo: English Foo"
locale doesn't poison the module-level cache for subsequent tests in
the same xdist worker. (Without this, every gateway slash command test
that shares a worker with the i18n suite would see the fake catalog.)
Validation:
- tests/agent/test_i18n.py: 27/27 (parity contract — every key in every
locale, matching placeholder tokens).
- tests/gateway/: 5077 passed, 0 failed (full gateway suite).
- 180 t() call sites added across 35 handlers; 1872 catalog entries
total (234 keys × 8 locales).
* feat(i18n): add 8 new locales — af, ko, it, ga, zh-hant, pt, ru, hu
Expands the static-message catalog from 8 → 16 languages, each with full
270-key parity against the English source-of-truth. Every locale now
covers the same surface PR #22914 added: approval prompts plus all 35
gateway slash command outputs.
New locales:
- af Afrikaans (community ask in #21961 by @GodsBoy; PRs #21962, #21970)
- ko Korean (PRs #20297 by @tmdgusya, #22285 by @project820)
- it Italian (PR #20371 by @leprincep35700)
- ga Irish/Gaeilge (PR #20962 by @ryanmcc09-dot)
- zh-hant Traditional Chinese (PRs #20523 by @jackey8616, #13140 by @anomixer)
- pt Portuguese (PRs #20443 by @pedroborges, #15737 by @carloshenriquecarniatto, #22063 by @Magaav)
- ru Russian (PR #22770 by @DrMaks22)
- hu Hungarian (PR #22336 by @lunasec007)
Each locale uses native-quality translations matching the existing tone
and conventions of the older 8 locales:
- zh-hant uses 繁體 characters with TW/HK technical vocabulary (軟體
not 软件, 連線 not 连接, 設定 not 设置, 訊息 not 消息, 工作階段 not 会话, 程式
not 程序, 預設 not 默认, 伺服器 not 服务器), full-width punctuation 「：（）」.
- ko uses formal 합니다체 (습니다/합니다) register throughout.
- pt uses European Portuguese as baseline with neutral PT/BR vocabulary
where possible.
- ga uses standard An Caighdeán Oifigiúil; English loanwords retained
for tech terms without good Irish equivalents (gateway, API, JSON).
- All preserve {placeholder} tokens, backtick code spans, slash commands,
brand names (Hermes, MCP, TTS, YOLO, OpenAI, Telegram, etc.), and emoji.
Aliases added in agent/i18n.py:
- af-za, Afrikaans → af
- ko-kr, Korean, 한국어 → ko
- it-it, italiano → it
- ga-ie, Irish, Gaeilge → ga
- zh-tw, zh-hk, zh-mo, traditional-chinese → zh-hant (note: zh-tw used to
alias to zh; now aliases to its own zh-hant catalog)
- zh-cn, zh-hans, zh-sg → zh (unchanged from before)
- pt-pt, pt-br, brazilian, portuguese → pt
- ru-ru, Russian, русский → ru
- hu-hu, Magyar → hu
The zh-tw alias re-routing is intentional: previously typing 'zh-TW' got
the Simplified Chinese catalog (wrong vocabulary for Taiwan/HK users).
Now those users get the proper Traditional Chinese catalog.
Validation:
- tests/agent/test_i18n.py: 43/43 (parity contract holds for all 16
languages × 270 keys = 4320 catalog entries, with matching placeholder
tokens).
- E2E alias resolution verified for all 19 alias inputs (Afrikaans, ko-KR,
한국어, italiano, Gaeilge, zh-TW, zh-HK, traditional-chinese, pt-BR,
brazilian, Magyar, etc.).
- tests/gateway/: 5198 passed (3 pre-existing TTS routing failures
unrelated to i18n).
Credit to all contributors whose PRs surfaced these language requests.
Their original PRs may now be closed as superseded with credit.
* feat(dashboard-i18n): add 14 web dashboard locales matching the static catalog
Brings the React dashboard (web/src/) up to the same 16-language
coverage the static catalog already has after the previous commits in
this PR. The Translations interface is TypeScript-typed, so every new
locale must provide every key — tsc -b is the parity guard.
Languages added (each is a complete 429-line locale file):
- af Afrikaans
- ja Japanese (PR #22513 by @snuffxxx surfaced this)
- de German (PR #21749 by @mag1art)
- es Spanish (PR #21749)
- fr French (PRs #21749, #10310 by @foXaCe)
- tr Turkish
- uk Ukrainian
- ko Korean (PRs #21749, #18894 by @ovstng, #22285 by @project820)
- it Italian
- ga Irish (Gaeilge)
- zh-hant Traditional Chinese (PR #13140 by @anomixer)
- pt Portuguese (PRs #22063 by @Magaav, #22182 by @wesleysimplicio, #15737 by @carloshenriquecarniatto)
- ru Russian (PRs #21749, #22770 by @DrMaks22)
- hu Hungarian (PR #22336 by @lunasec007)
Each translation covers all 15 namespaces with full key parity vs en.ts,
preserves every {placeholder} token verbatim, keeps identifiers
untranslated (brand names, file paths, cron expressions, code spans),
translates the language.switchTo tooltip into the target language, and
matches existing tone conventions (zh-hant uses TW/HK vocab; ja uses
formal desu/masu; ko uses formal seumnida register; ga uses An
Caighdean Oifigiuil with English loanwords for tech vocab without good
Irish equivalents).
Plumbing:
- web/src/i18n/types.ts: Locale union expanded to all 16 codes.
- web/src/i18n/context.tsx: imports all 16 catalogs; exports
LOCALE_META (endonym + flag per locale); isLocale() type guard.
- web/src/i18n/index.ts: re-export LOCALE_META.
- web/src/components/LanguageSwitcher.tsx: replaced two-state EN-ZH
toggle with a click-to-open dropdown listing all 16 languages.
Note: zh-hant.ts exports zhHant (camelCase) since hyphen is invalid in
a JS identifier; the canonical 'zh-hant' string keys it in TRANSLATIONS.
Validation:
- npx tsc -b: 0 errors. Every locale satisfies Translations.
- npm run build (tsc + vite production): green, 2062 modules.
- Each locale file is exactly 429 lines.
Out of scope: plugin dashboards (kanban/achievements ship as prebuilt
bundles with no source in repo); Docusaurus docs (separate surface);
TUI (no i18n yet).
* feat(plugin-i18n): localize achievements + kanban plugin dashboards across all 16 locales
Brings the two shipped plugin dashboards (hermes-achievements, kanban)
under the same i18n umbrella as the core dashboard PR #22914 just
established. Both bundles now read user-facing strings from the host's
i18n catalog via SDK.useI18n() instead of hardcoded English.
## Approach
Plugin dashboards ship as prebuilt IIFE bundles in
plugins/<name>/dashboard/dist/index.js — no build step, no source in
repo (upstream-authored, vendored as compiled JS). Earlier contributor
PRs (#22594, #22595, #18747) tried direct edits but didn't actually
wire the bundles to read translations.
This change does the wiring properly:
1. Each bundle gets a useI18n shim at IIFE scope:
const useI18n = SDK.useI18n
|| function () { return { t: { kanban: null }, locale: "en" }; };
Older host SDKs without useI18n still load the bundle and render
English fallbacks.
2. A small tx(t, path, fallback, vars) helper resolves dotted keys
under the plugin's namespace (t.kanban.* or t.achievements.*) and
interpolates {placeholder} tokens.
3. Every React component starts with const { t } = useI18n() and
each user-visible string is wrapped in tx(t, "key", "English fallback").
Helpers called outside React components (window.prompt callers,
constants used during init) take t as a parameter.
4. Top-level constants that were English dictionaries (COLUMN_LABEL,
COLUMN_HELP, DESTRUCTIVE_TRANSITIONS, DIAGNOSTIC_EVENT_LABELS in
kanban) become getColumnLabel(t, status)-style functions backed by
FALLBACK_* dictionaries.
## Translations added
Two new top-level namespaces added to the dashboard's TypeScript-typed
Translations interface:
- achievements: ~70 keys covering the hero, scan banner, achievement
card, share dialog, stats, filters, and empty states.
- kanban: ~145 keys covering the board, columns (with nested
columnLabels and columnHelp sub-dicts), card detail panel,
bulk-actions toolbar, dependency editor, board switcher, and
diagnostic callouts.
Each key is provided across all 16 supported locales:
en, zh, zh-hant, ja, de, es, fr, tr, uk, af, ko, it, ga, pt, ru, hu.
Total new translation entries: ~3,440 (215 keys × 16 locales).
## What stays English (deliberate)
- API paths, CSS class names, data-* attributes, JSON keys, regex
strings, URLs, file paths (~/.hermes/kanban.db, boards/_archived/).
- State identifier strings used as lookup keys (triage / todo / ready /
running / blocked / done / archived) — labels translate, key strings
don't.
- The PNG share-card text rendered to canvas in the achievements
ShareDialog (HERMES AGENT watermark, UNLOCKED stamp, tier names) —
these become part of a globally-shared image and stay English.
- localStorage keys (hermes.kanban.selectedBoard).
- Brand names (Kanban, Hermes, WebSocket, Nous Research).
## Contributor credit
PR #22594 by @02356abc and PR #22595 by @02356abc supplied the
en + zh kanban namespace skeleton (145 keys); used as the en source-
of-truth in this commit and translated to the other 14 locales.
PR #18747 by @laolaoshiren first surfaced the achievements
localization request.
## Validation
- npx tsc -b: 0 errors. All 16 locale .ts files satisfy the
Translations type with full key parity.
- npm run build (tsc + vite production build): green, 2062 modules,
1.56MB JS / 95KB CSS, ~2.5s build.
- node --check on both plugin bundles: parse cleanly.
- 126 tx() call sites in kanban, 46 in achievements.
## Out of scope
- TUI (ui-tui/) has no i18n infrastructure yet.
- Docusaurus docs (website/i18n/) — already had zh-Hans; expanding
is a separate translation workstream (Thai / Korean / Hindi PRs).
* feat(gateway): add LINE Messaging API platform plugin
Adds LINE as a bundled platform plugin under `plugins/platforms/line/`,
synthesized from the strongest pieces of seven open community PRs. The
adapter requires zero core edits — `Platform("line")` is auto-discovered
via the bundled-plugin scan in `gateway/config.py`, and all hooks
(setup, env-enablement, cron delivery, standalone send) are wired
through `register_platform()` kwargs the way IRC and Teams do it.
Highlights merged into one plugin:
- **Reply token preferred, Push fallback.** Try the free reply token
first (single-use, ~60s TTL); fall back to metered Push when the
token is absent, expired, or rejected. (PR #21023)
- **Slow-LLM Template Buttons postback.** When the LLM is still running
past `LINE_SLOW_RESPONSE_THRESHOLD` (default 45s), the adapter burns
the original reply token to send a "Get answer" button bubble. The
user taps it to fetch the cached answer via a fresh reply token —
also free. State machine: PENDING → READY → DELIVERED, ERROR for
cancelled runs (orphan resolves to `LINE_INTERRUPTED_TEXT` after
/stop). Set threshold to 0 to disable. (PR #18153)
- **Three-allowlist gating** — separate user / group / room allowlists
with `LINE_ALLOW_ALL_USERS=true` dev-only escape hatch. (PR #18153)
- **Markdown URL preservation.** Strip bold/italic/code-fence/heading
markers (LINE renders them literally) but keep `[label](url)` →
`label (url)` so URLs stay tappable. (PR #18153)
- **System-message bypass** for `⚡ Interrupting`, `⏳ Queued`, etc. —
busy-acks reach the user as visible bubbles instead of being
swallowed into the postback cache. (PR #18153)
- **Media via public HTTPS URLs.** LINE doesn't accept binary uploads;
images/audio/video must be HTTPS-reachable. The adapter serves
registered tempfiles under `/line/media/<token>/<filename>` from the
same aiohttp app. Allowed-roots traversal guard covers
`tempfile.gettempdir()`, `/tmp` (→ `/private/tmp` on macOS), and
`HERMES_HOME`. `LINE_PUBLIC_URL` overrides URL construction for
setups behind tunnels/proxies. (PR #8398)
- **5-message-per-call batching.** LINE rejects >5 messages per
Reply/Push; smart-chunker caps text at 4500 chars per bubble.
- **Inbound dedup** via `webhookEventId` LRU. (PR #21023)
- **Self-message filter** via `/v2/bot/info` userId lookup. (PR #21023)
- **Loading-animation indicator** wired to LINE's `chat/loading/start`
endpoint, DM-only (LINE rejects it for groups/rooms). (PR #21023)
- **Out-of-process cron delivery** via `_standalone_send`, so
`deliver: line` cron jobs work even when cron runs detached from
the gateway.
- **Webhook hardening** — 1 MiB body cap, constant-time HMAC-SHA256
signature verification, dedup, scoped lock so two profiles can't
bind the same channel.

implementation that takes the best idea from each.

* docs(platforms): document platform-specific slow-LLM UX pattern
Add a 'Platform-Specific Slow-LLM UX' section to the platform-adapter
developer guide covering the _keep_typing override pattern that LINE
uses for its Template Buttons postback flow.
Three subsections:
- Pattern: subclass _keep_typing to layer mid-flight UX (with code)
- Pattern: subclass send to route through a cache instead of sending
- When this pattern is appropriate (vs. always-Push fallback)
Plus a short pointer in gateway/platforms/ADDING_A_PLATFORM.md so
tree-readers find the prose walkthrough on the docsite.
Filed because the LINE plugin (PR #23197) was the first bundled
adapter to need this pattern — every prior plugin (irc, teams,
google_chat) handles slow responses with the default typing-loop and
a regular send_text. Documenting now while the rationale is fresh.

Both `_kanban_notifier_watcher` and `_kanban_dispatcher_watcher`'s
`_tick_once_for_board` called `_kb.connect(board=slug)` immediately
followed by `_kb.init_db(board=slug)`. Since `connect()` already runs
the schema + idempotent migration on first open per process, the
explicit `init_db()` was redundant — and worse, `init_db()` deliberately
busts the per-process `_INITIALIZED_PATHS` cache and re-runs the migration
on a *second* connection that races the first.
On every cold gateway start against a legacy DB this surfaced as either
`sqlite3.OperationalError: duplicate column name: <col>` or intermittent
`database is locked` errors logged at the first tick. The duplicate-column
case is now tolerated by `_add_column_if_missing` (commit 78698381a), but
the wasted second migration plus the database-is-locked race remain
fixable by skipping the redundant call entirely.
Drops `_kb.init_db(board=slug)` at both call sites and adds a regression
test in `tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_notify.py` that pins the absence
via source inspection plus a runtime spy.

The /rollback command handler in gateway/run.py was constructing
CheckpointManager with only enabled and max_snapshots, omitting
max_total_size_mb and max_file_size_mb that the __init__ expects.
This caused a TypeError on every /rollback invocation when checkpoints
were enabled.
Fixes: NousResearch/hermes-agent#18841
When connected_count == 0 AND enabled_platform_count > 0, the gateway
treated 'all adapters returned None' identically to 'all adapters
failed to connect' — both as fatal startup errors. The 'returned None'
case happens when imports fail silently or when adapters are present
in config but their dependencies aren't installed (e.g. discord.py
missing). Cron jobs and other gateway-runtime work would unnecessarily
fail to start.
Split: only return False when startup_retryable_errors is non-empty
(real connection attempt failed). When the list is empty AND enabled
> 0, log a warning and continue running, matching the 'no platforms
enabled' cron path.
Salvage of #22642's gateway slice. Drops the bundled run_agent.py
memory-nudge counter hydration block (issue #22357 territory) which
wasn't mentioned in the PR description.
Closes#5196.
Problem: terminal.docker_env set in config.yaml was silently ignored.
Docker containers never received the user-specified env vars.
Root cause: docker_env was missing from all three config→env bridging
maps (cli.py env_mappings, gateway/run.py _terminal_env_map,
hermes_cli/config.py _config_to_env_sync) and from the terminal_tool
_get_env_config() reader. _create_environment() consumed the key from
container_config correctly, but it was always {} because TERMINAL_DOCKER_ENV
was never set.
Also extend the list-serialisation branches in cli.py and gateway/run.py
to handle dict values via json.dumps (lists already used json.dumps;
plain str() on a dict produces undecodable output).
Fix:
- cli.py: add "docker_env": "TERMINAL_DOCKER_ENV" to env_mappings;
serialise dict values with json.dumps alongside existing list path
- gateway/run.py: same additions to _terminal_env_map and serialisation
- hermes_cli/config.py: add "terminal.docker_env": "TERMINAL_DOCKER_ENV"
to _config_to_env_sync so `hermes config set terminal.docker_env …`
persists to .env correctly

PR #2974 whitelisted three reasoning fields (reasoning, reasoning_details,
codex_reasoning_items) for the gateway's simple-text replay branch. Three
more fields were added to the DB later but the whitelist was never updated:
- reasoning_content: provider-facing thinking text. _copy_reasoning_content_for_api
promotes 'reasoning' -> 'reasoning_content' at send time only when the
strings happen to match. Carrying the original verbatim avoids loss
for providers that return them as distinct fields (DeepSeek/Kimi/
Moonshot thinking modes), and preserves the empty-string sentinel
that DeepSeek V4 Pro requires for thinking-mode replay.
- codex_message_items: exact assistant message items with 'phase'.
OpenAI docs: 'preserve and resend phase on all assistant messages —
dropping it can degrade performance.' Required for prefix cache hits.
No recovery path exists — once dropped, gone.
- finish_reason: informational; cheap to keep so transcripts replay
identically across CLI and gateway.
The CLI is unaffected because cli.py keeps the live in-memory message list
across turns (cli.py:10046 'self.conversation_history = result["messages"]').
The gateway rebuilds agent_history from the SQLite transcript on every turn,
so any field stripped during replay is silently lost.
Refactors the inline whitelist into a module-level _build_replay_entry()
helper so the contract can be unit-tested. 16 new tests pin the field set
and falsy-value handling.
Verified end-to-end: DB stores all 8 fields, replay now preserves all 8
(was preserving only 5 for assistant text turns).
Per-tool-call push notifications on Telegram are noisy enough that
'all' is the wrong default — long agent runs spam the user's notification
shade with status messages they didn't ask to be pinged about. Final
responses, approval prompts, and slash confirmations still notify;
intermediate progress, streaming, and tool-progress messages now
deliver silently via disable_notification.
Users who want the legacy behavior can opt back in with:
display:
platforms:
telegram:
notifications: all
or HERMES_TELEGRAM_NOTIFICATIONS=all.
Add a configurable notifications mode for the Telegram platform adapter
that controls which messages trigger push notifications.
- display.platforms.telegram.notifications: "all" (default) | "important"
- HERMES_TELEGRAM_NOTIFICATIONS env var override
- In "important" mode, all sends use disable_notification=True except:
- Approvals (send_exec_approval) and slash confirmations
- Final response messages (metadata["notify"]=True)
- Zero overhead in default "all" mode
- Zero impact on non-Telegram platforms

163/NetEase IMAP servers reject every UID SEARCH/FETCH with `BYE Unsafe
Login` unless the client first identifies itself via the RFC 2971 ID
command after LOGIN. Without this, the email gateway logs in OK but
then fails on the very first poll and the connection is torn down.
Send the ID payload best-effort after both `imap.login()` sites
(`EmailAdapter.connect` and `_fetch_new_messages`). Failures are
swallowed at debug level so non-supporting IMAP servers (Gmail,
Outlook, Fastmail, Yahoo, etc.) keep working unchanged.
Closes#22271
`gateway/platforms/__init__.py` eagerly imported `QQAdapter` and
`YuanbaoAdapter` at package-init time, which transitively pulled in
qqbot's chunked-upload + keyboards + onboard machinery and yuanbao's
websocket stack. About 84 ms wall and 23 MB RSS on every fresh process
that touched anything under `gateway.platforms` — including `hermes
chat` (via run_agent → cli's plugin discovery transitive import).
Nothing in the codebase actually consumes these symbols from the
package root; every real call site uses the long-form path
(`from gateway.platforms.qqbot import QQAdapter`,
`from gateway.platforms.yuanbao import YuanbaoAdapter` in gateway/run.py).
The eager re-export was only there for convenience.
Replace with a PEP 562 module-level `__getattr__` that lazily imports
on first attribute access. Public API stays identical:
`from gateway.platforms import QQAdapter` keeps working but only
pays the import cost when the symbol is actually touched. `__dir__`
preserves help() / autocomplete behavior.
Measured impact (7-run medians, 9950X3D):
import gateway.platforms 127 → 43 ms (-66%)
50 → 27 MB (-46%)
import gateway.platforms.base 127 → 44 ms (-65%)
50 → 27 MB (-46%)
import cli (full chat path) 745 → 710 ms ( -5%)
96 → 90 MB ( -6%)
hermes chat -q (cold) -5 MB
The per-import win is biggest because qqbot/yuanbao deps don't overlap
with anything on the gateway-platforms path — full `import cli`
already loads aiohttp/websockets transitively from other places, so
the marginal CLI win is smaller than the isolated import benchmark.
The `gateway.platforms.base` win is what matters most for long-lived
gateway processes: every gateway boot saves 23 MB resident.
All 144 qqbot tests pass; broader gateway suite (5132 tests) passes
modulo 4 pre-existing flakes also failing on main without this change.
Non-streaming /v1/chat/completions wrapped any AIAgent result \u2014 including
partial/failed runs \u2014 as a successful 200 with finish_reason='stop' and
the internal failure string substituted into message.content. API
clients had no way to distinguish 'agent answered: X' from
'agent crashed and the X you see is its error message'.
After the fix:
- completed: True \u2192 200 finish_reason='stop' (unchanged)
- partial + truncated text \u2192 200 finish_reason='length' + hermes extras
- partial + no text / failed \u2192 502 OpenAI error envelope (SDKs raise)
- other failures \u2192 200 finish_reason='error' + hermes extras
Adds X-Hermes-Completed / X-Hermes-Partial / X-Hermes-Error headers
plus a 'hermes' extras object on partial responses for clients that
want the full picture.
Closes#22496.
- Restore allowed_chats gate before thread_id check so ignored_threads
applies universally (even to guest mentions).
- Compute _message_mentions_bot once in _should_process_message to
eliminate redundant second entity scan when guest_mode=true and the
message does not mention the bot.
- Remove redundant _is_group_chat from _is_guest_mention (caller already
verified the message is a group chat).
- Update _telegram_allowed_chats docstring to note guest_mode exception.
- Add test coverage: bot_command entity, text_mention entity,
caption_entities, and ignored_threads + guest_mode interaction.
- Add nik1t7n to AUTHOR_MAP.
When a Telegram user replies using the native quote feature to select
only part of a prior message, _build_message_event was injecting the
ENTIRE replied-to message into reply_to_text via
message.reply_to_message.text/caption. python-telegram-bot exposes
the user-selected substring as message.quote (TextQuote.text); we now
prefer that and fall back to the full replied-to text only when no
native quote is present.
The agent-visible "[Replying to: \"...\"]" prefix can otherwise expand
the user's narrow quote into the full prior message, causing the agent
to act on unrelated actionable-looking text the user did not select
(e.g. multi-item briefings where the user quotes one bullet but the
prefix injects every bullet). Falls back cleanly when message.quote
is absent (PTB <21 or replies that don't quote a substring).

/clear, /new, /reset, and /undo now ask the user to confirm before
discarding conversation state — three-option prompt routed through the
existing tools.slash_confirm primitive.
Native yes/no buttons render on Telegram, Discord, and Slack (their
adapters already implement send_slash_confirm); other platforms get a
text-fallback prompt and reply with /approve, /always, or /cancel.
The classic prompt_toolkit CLI uses the same three-option flow via the
established _prompt_text_input pattern (see _confirm_and_reload_mcp).
TUI keeps its existing modal overlay (#12312).
Gated by new config key approvals.destructive_slash_confirm (default
true). Picking 'Always Approve' flips the gate to false so subsequent
destructive commands run silently — matches the established
mcp_reload_confirm UX.
Out of scope: /cron remove (separate domain — scheduled jobs, not
session history). Existing TUI overlay env-var (HERMES_TUI_NO_CONFIRM)
left unchanged; cosmetic unification can come later.
Closes#4069.
When a GFM table has a row-label column (first column with no header),
_render_table_block_for_telegram incorrectly included the row-label cell
in the bullet zip alongside the data cells, producing a spurious bullet
like '• 維度: 核心賣點' before the real data rows.
Detect the row-label column by comparing the first data row cell count
against the header count (has_row_label_col = len(first_data_row) ==
len(headers) + 1). When present, use cells[0] as the heading and
zip headers against cells[1:] only, correctly excluding the row-label
from the bullet list.
Fixes#22604
Plugin platforms (IRC, Teams, Google Chat) currently fail with
`No live adapter for platform '<name>'` when a `deliver=<plugin>` cron
job runs in a separate process from the gateway, even though the
platforms are eligible cron targets via `cron_deliver_env_var` (added
in #21306). Built-in platforms (Telegram, Discord, Slack, etc.) use
direct REST helpers in `tools/send_message_tool.py` so cron can deliver
without holding the gateway in the same process; plugin platforms
historically depended on `_gateway_runner_ref()` which returns `None`
out of process.
This change adds an optional `standalone_sender_fn` field to
`PlatformEntry` so plugins can register an ephemeral send path that
opens its own connection, sends, and closes without needing the live
adapter. The dispatch site in `_send_via_adapter` falls through to the
hook when the gateway runner is unavailable, with a descriptive error
when neither path applies. The hook is optional, so existing plugins
are unaffected.
Reference migrations land in the same change for IRC, Teams, and
Google Chat, exercising the hook across stdlib (asyncio + IRC protocol),
Bot Framework OAuth client_credentials, and Google service-account
flows respectively.
Security hardening on the new code paths:
* IRC: control-character stripping on chat_id and message body to
block CRLF command injection; bounded nick-collision retries; JOIN
before PRIVMSG so channels with the default `+n` mode accept the
delivery.
* Teams: TEAMS_SERVICE_URL validated against an allowlist of known
Bot Framework hosts (`smba.trafficmanager.net`,
`smba.infra.gov.teams.microsoft.us`) to block SSRF; chat_id and
tenant_id constrained to the documented Bot Framework character set;
per-request timeouts so a slow STS endpoint cannot starve the
activity POST.
* Google Chat: chat_id and thread_id validated against strict
resource-name regexes; service-account refresh wrapped in
`asyncio.wait_for` so a hung token endpoint cannot stall the
scheduler.
Test coverage: 20 new tests covering happy path, missing-config errors,
network failure modes, and each defensive validation. Existing tests
unchanged. `bash scripts/run_tests.sh tests/tools/test_send_message_tool.py
tests/gateway/test_irc_adapter.py tests/gateway/test_teams.py
tests/gateway/test_google_chat.py` reports 341 passed, 0 regressions.
Documentation: new "Out-of-process cron delivery" section in
website/docs/developer-guide/adding-platform-adapters.md and an entry
in gateway/platforms/ADDING_A_PLATFORM.md naming the hook.
SQLite's WAL mode requires shared-memory (mmap) coordination and fcntl
byte-range locks that don't reliably work on network filesystems. Upstream
documents this explicitly:
https://www.sqlite.org/wal.html#sometimes_queries_return_sqlite_busy_in_wal_mode
On NFS / SMB / some FUSE mounts / WSL1, 'PRAGMA journal_mode=WAL' raises
'sqlite3.OperationalError: locking protocol' (SQLITE_PROTOCOL). Before
this change, every feature backed by state.db or kanban.db broke silently:
- /resume, /title, /history, /branch returned 'Session database not
available.' with no cause
- gateway logged the init failure at DEBUG (invisible in errors.log)
- kanban dispatcher crashed every 60s, driving the known migration race
(duplicate column name: consecutive_failures, #21708 / #21374)
Changes:
- hermes_state.apply_wal_with_fallback(): shared helper that tries WAL
and falls back to DELETE on SQLITE_PROTOCOL-style errors with one
WARNING explaining why
- hermes_state.get_last_init_error() + format_session_db_unavailable():
capture the init failure cause and surface it in user-facing strings
(with an NFS/SMB pointer for 'locking protocol')
- hermes_cli/kanban_db.connect(): use the shared helper
- gateway/run.py: bump SessionDB init failure log DEBUG -> WARNING
(matches cli.py's existing correct behavior)
- cli.py (4 sites) + gateway/run.py (5 sites): replace bare
'Session database not available.' with format_session_db_unavailable()
Tests: 12 new tests in tests/test_hermes_state_wal_fallback.py + 1 new
test in tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_db.py. Existing suites (state,
kanban, gateway, cli) remain green for all tests unrelated to pre-existing
failures on main.
Evidence: real-world user on NFSv3 mount (172.26.224.200:d2dfac12/home,
local_lock=none) reporting 'Session database not available.' on /resume;
'locking protocol' appears in 4 distinct log entries across backup,
kanban, TUI, and CLI paths in the same session.
closes#22032
The send path uses Hermes' reply-anchor fallback for DM topic lanes
(message_thread_id + reply_to_message_id), but send_chat_action only
accepts message_thread_id — Telegram's Bot API 10.0 rejects it for
these lanes. Without this short-circuit, every typing tick (~every 2s
during agent runs) makes a doomed API call that gets logged as a
'thread not found' debug warning. Skip the call entirely when the
metadata indicates a DM topic reply-fallback lane; the user-visible
behavior is unchanged (no typing indicator either way for these
lanes), but the logs stay clean.
Identified during salvage review of #22053.
teknium1 hit ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'hermes_bootstrap' after
a code update, on both his Windows machine AND his Linux workstation. The
failure mode is real and affects every user who updates hermes by any path
OTHER than a fully-successful ``hermes update``.
## What happens
hermes_bootstrap.py is a top-level module registered via pyproject.toml's
``py-modules`` list (added by Brooklyn's Windows UTF-8 stdio work). It
must be registered in the venv's editable-install .pth file before Python
can find it as a bare ``import hermes_bootstrap``.
``hermes update`` handles this correctly: (1) git reset --hard, (2) clear
__pycache__, (3) uv pip install -e . (re-registers the package including
the new py-modules list), (4) restart.
BUT if any step AFTER (1) fails — network blip during pip install, PEP 668
on a system Python, venv locked, uv not in PATH, a crash mid-update — the
user is left with new code that references hermes_bootstrap and a venv
that doesn't know about it. Every hermes invocation after that crashes
with ModuleNotFoundError, including ``hermes update`` itself. No recovery
path without manual `uv pip install -e .`.
Also affects users who ``git pull`` the repo directly without running
hermes update — relatively common for developers.
## Fix
Wrap ``import hermes_bootstrap`` in a try/except ModuleNotFoundError
across all 6 entry points (hermes_cli/main, run_agent, gateway/run,
acp_adapter/entry, cli, batch_runner). On Windows, missing bootstrap
means the UTF-8 stdio setup doesn't run — degraded behavior (Unicode
chars may fail to print) but NOT a crash. POSIX is unaffected either way
since the bootstrap is a no-op there.
Once hermes is running again, the user can ``hermes update`` to fully
recover.
## Test update
tests/test_hermes_bootstrap.py::test_entry_point_imports_bootstrap
scans for the first top-level import in each entry point and asserts it
is hermes_bootstrap. Extended the check to accept a Try block whose body
is a lone Import of hermes_bootstrap — that's the recovery-friendly form
we just introduced.
Verified behavior by ``mv hermes_bootstrap.py hermes_bootstrap.py.bak``
and confirming ``python -c "import hermes_cli.main"`` succeeds. 82/82
tests pass (hermes_bootstrap + windows-native + windows-compat).
## Why
Hermes supports Linux, macOS, and native Windows, but the codebase grew up
POSIX-first and has accumulated patterns that silently break (or worse,
silently kill!) on Windows:
- `os.kill(pid, 0)` as a liveness probe — on Windows this maps to
CTRL_C_EVENT and broadcasts Ctrl+C to the target's entire console
process group (bpo-14484, open since 2012).
- `os.killpg` — doesn't exist on Windows at all (AttributeError).
- `os.setsid` / `os.getuid` / `os.geteuid` — same.
- `signal.SIGKILL` / `signal.SIGHUP` / `signal.SIGUSR1` — module-attr
errors at runtime on Windows.
- `open(path)` / `open(path, "r")` without explicit encoding= — inherits
the platform default, which is cp1252/mbcs on Windows (UTF-8 on POSIX),
causing mojibake round-tripping between hosts.
- `wmic` — removed from Windows 10 21H1+.
This commit does three things:
1. Makes `psutil` a core dependency and migrates critical callsites to it.
2. Adds a grep-based CI gate (`scripts/check-windows-footguns.py`) that
blocks new instances of any of the above patterns.
3. Fixes every existing instance in the codebase so the baseline is clean.
## What changed
### 1. psutil as a core dependency (pyproject.toml)
Added `psutil>=5.9.0,<8` to core deps. psutil is the canonical
cross-platform answer for "is this PID alive" and "kill this process
tree" — its `pid_exists()` uses `OpenProcess + GetExitCodeProcess` on
Windows (NOT a signal call), and its `Process.children(recursive=True)`
+ `.kill()` combo replaces `os.killpg()` portably.
### 2. `gateway/status.py::_pid_exists`
Rewrote to call `psutil.pid_exists()` first, falling back to the
hand-rolled ctypes `OpenProcess + WaitForSingleObject` dance on Windows
(and `os.kill(pid, 0)` on POSIX) only if psutil is somehow missing —
e.g. during the scaffold phase of a fresh install before pip finishes.
### 3. `os.killpg` migration to psutil (7 callsites, 5 files)
- `tools/code_execution_tool.py`
- `tools/process_registry.py`
- `tools/tts_tool.py`
- `tools/environments/local.py` (3 sites kept as-is, suppressed with
`# windows-footgun: ok` — the pgid semantics psutil can't replicate,
and the calls are already Windows-guarded at the outer branch)
- `gateway/platforms/whatsapp.py`
### 4. `scripts/check-windows-footguns.py` (NEW, 500 lines)
Grep-based checker with 11 rules covering every Windows cross-platform
footgun we've hit so far:
1. `os.kill(pid, 0)` — the silent killer
2. `os.setsid` without guard
3. `os.killpg` (recommends psutil)
4. `os.getuid` / `os.geteuid` / `os.getgid`
5. `os.fork`
6. `signal.SIGKILL`
7. `signal.SIGHUP/SIGUSR1/SIGUSR2/SIGALRM/SIGCHLD/SIGPIPE/SIGQUIT`
8. `subprocess` shebang script invocation
9. `wmic` without `shutil.which` guard
10. Hardcoded `~/Desktop` (OneDrive trap)
11. `asyncio.add_signal_handler` without try/except
12. `open()` without `encoding=` on text mode
Features:
- Triple-quoted-docstring aware (won't flag prose inside docstrings)
- Trailing-comment aware (won't flag mentions in `# os.kill(pid, 0)` comments)
- Guard-hint aware (skips lines with `hasattr(os, ...)`,
`shutil.which(...)`, `if platform.system() != 'Windows'`, etc.)
- Inline suppression with `# windows-footgun: ok — <reason>`
- `--list` to print all rules with fixes
- `--all` / `--diff <ref>` / staged-files (default) modes
- Scans 380 files in under 2 seconds
### 5. CI integration
A GitHub Actions workflow that runs the checker on every PR and push is
staged at `/tmp/hermes-stash/windows-footguns.yml` — not included in this
commit because the GH token on the push machine lacks `workflow` scope.
A maintainer with `workflow` permissions should add it as
`.github/workflows/windows-footguns.yml` in a follow-up. Content:
```yaml
name: Windows footgun check
on:
push:
branches: [main]
pull_request:
branches: [main]
jobs:

runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v4
- uses: actions/setup-python@v5
with: {python-version: "3.11"}
- run: python scripts/check-windows-footguns.py --all
```
### 6. CONTRIBUTING.md — "Cross-Platform Compatibility" expansion
Expanded from 5 to 16 rules, each with message, example, and fix.
Recommends psutil as the preferred API for PID / process-tree operations.
### 7. Baseline cleanup (91 → 0 findings)
- 14 `open()` sites → added `encoding='utf-8'` (internal logs/caches) or
`encoding='utf-8-sig'` (user-editable files that Notepad may BOM)
- 23 POSIX-only callsites in systemd helpers, pty_bridge, and plugin
tool subprocess management → annotated with
`# windows-footgun: ok — <reason>`
- 7 `os.killpg` sites → migrated to psutil (see §3 above)
## Verification
```
$ python scripts/check-windows-footguns.py --all
✓ No Windows footguns found (380 file(s) scanned).
$ python -c "from gateway.status import _pid_exists; import os
> print('self:', _pid_exists(os.getpid())); print('bogus:', _pid_exists(999999))"
self: True
bogus: False
```
Proof-of-repro that `os.kill(pid, 0)` was actually killing processes
before this fix — see commit `1cbe39914` and bpo-14484. This commit
removes the last hand-rolled ctypes path from the hot liveness-check
path and defers to the best-maintained cross-platform answer.
On Windows, Python's ``os.kill(pid, 0)`` is NOT a no-op. CPython's
implementation (``Modules/posixmodule.c::os_kill_impl``) treats sig=0
as ``CTRL_C_EVENT`` because the two integer values collide at the C
layer, and routes it through ``GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent(0, pid)`` —
which sends a Ctrl+C to the ENTIRE console process group containing
the target PID, not just the PID itself. Any caller that wanted to
check "is PID X alive" via the classic POSIX ``os.kill(pid, 0)``
idiom was silently killing that process (and often unrelated
processes in the same console group) on Windows. Long-standing
Python Windows quirk; see bpo-14484 (open since 2012).
This manifested in Hermes as: every ``hermes gateway status``
invocation would read the gateway's PID from the PID file, call
``os.kill(pid, 0)`` via ``gateway.status.get_running_pid()`` as a
"liveness check", and instantly terminate the gateway it was trying
to report on. No shutdown log, no traceback, no atexit hook fire,
no exit-diag entry — just silent termination of the detached pythonw
process. "Bot answered one message then stopped typing" was the
characteristic end-user symptom because `os.kill(pid, 0)` fires
mid-response-send and kills the gateway between logs.
Reproduction (verified in this branch before the fix):
$ hermes gateway start # gateway alive, PID 37520
$ hermes gateway status # reports "No gateway process detected"
$ tasklist /FI "PID eq 37520" # INFO: No tasks are running
# — gateway terminated silently
Root-cause fix is a new ``gateway.status._pid_exists(pid)`` helper:
- On Windows: Win32 ``OpenProcess(PROCESS_QUERY_LIMITED_INFORMATION |
SYNCHRONIZE, False, pid)`` + ``WaitForSingleObject(handle, 0)``
via ctypes. Zero signal delivery, zero console-group side effects.
Pins ctypes return types to avoid DWORD-vs-signed-int parse bugs
on WAIT_TIMEOUT (0x102). Distinguishes ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER
(PID gone) from ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED (alive but another user).
- On POSIX: the canonical ``os.kill(pid, 0)`` idiom that actually is
a no-op there.
Then patch every ``os.kill(pid, 0)`` liveness-check callsite to
route through ``_pid_exists`` instead. Total 14 callsites across
11 files; every single one was a latent silent-kill on Windows:
gateway/run.py:2810 — /restart watcher (inline subprocess)
gateway/run.py:15195 — --replace wait loop
gateway/status.py:572 — acquire_gateway_runtime_lock stale check
gateway/status.py:828 — get_running_pid (THE killer for status)
gateway/platforms/whatsapp.py:111
hermes_cli/gateway.py:228, 522, 1012 — gateway-related drain loops
hermes_cli/kanban_db.py:2826 — _pid_alive was claiming to
be cross-platform but used
os.kill(pid, 0) on Windows
hermes_cli/main.py:5792 — CLI process-kill polling
hermes_cli/profiles.py:782 — profile stop wait loop
plugins/google_meet/process_manager.py:74
tools/browser_tool.py:1215, 1255 — browser daemon ownership probes
tools/mcp_tool.py:1255, 3374 — MCP stdio orphan tracking
The watcher source in gateway/run.py:2810 is a multi-line string
that gets spawned as an inline ``python -c "..."`` subprocess, so
it can't import gateway.status. The fix for that callsite inlines
the same ctypes probe directly into the watcher source.
Tested on Windows 10 with the hermes gateway + Telegram bot:
- gateway start → alive
- 5 consecutive ``hermes gateway status`` invocations → gateway
alive after every one, same PID reported each time (37520, 21952)
- gateway.log shows uninterrupted operation; no spurious shutdown
entries; cron ticker and kanban dispatcher still running on
their 60-second cadence
- bot continues answering Telegram messages throughout
Ships alongside an exit-path diagnostic wrapper in
``hermes_cli/gateway.py::run_gateway()`` that captures every way
``asyncio.run(start_gateway(...))`` can return (success, SystemExit,
KeyboardInterrupt, BaseException, atexit) with full traceback to
``logs/gateway-exit-diag.log``. This was used to prove the gateway
was being hard-killed externally (no exit event fired) and should
be kept for future Windows debugging.

Closes the last Python-on-Windows UTF-8 exposure by making every
text-mode open() call explicit about its encoding.
Before: on Windows, bare open(path, 'r') defaults to the system
locale encoding (cp1252 on US-locale installs). That means reading
any config/yaml/markdown/json file with non-ASCII content either
crashes with UnicodeDecodeError or silently mis-decodes bytes.
After: all 89 affected call sites in production code now pass
encoding='utf-8' explicitly. Works identically on every platform
and every locale, no surprise behavior.
Mechanical sweep via:
ruff check --preview --extend-select PLW1514 --unsafe-fixes --fix --exclude 'tests,venv,.venv,node_modules,website,optional-skills, skills,tinker-atropos,plugins' .
All 89 fixes have the same shape: open(x) or open(x, mode) became
open(x, encoding='utf-8') or open(x, mode, encoding='utf-8'). Nothing
else changed. Every modified file still parses and the Windows/sandbox
test suite is still green (85 passed, 14 skipped, 0 failed across
tests/tools/test_code_execution_windows_env.py +
tests/tools/test_code_execution_modes.py + tests/tools/test_env_passthrough.py +
tests/test_hermes_bootstrap.py).
Scope notes:
- tests/ excluded: test fixtures can use locale encoding intentionally
(exercising edge cases). If we want to tighten tests later that's
a separate PR.
- plugins/ excluded: plugin-specific conventions may differ; plugin
authors own their code.
- optional-skills/ and skills/ excluded: skill scripts are user-authored
and we don't want to mass-edit them.
- website/ and tinker-atropos/ excluded: vendored / generated content.
46 files touched, 89 +/- lines (symmetric replacement). No behavior
change on POSIX or on Windows when the file is ASCII; bug fix on
Windows when the file contains non-ASCII.
Codebase-wide fix for Python-on-Windows UTF-8 footguns, complementing
the earlier execute_code sandbox fixes (which remain load-bearing for
when the sandbox explicitly scrubs child env).
Problem: Python on Windows has two long-standing text-encoding pitfalls:
1. sys.stdout/stderr are bound to the console code page (cp1252 on
US-locale installs) — print('café') crashes with UnicodeEncodeError.
2. Subprocess children don't know to use UTF-8 unless PYTHONUTF8 and/or
PYTHONIOENCODING are set in their env — so any Python we spawn
(linters, sandbox children, delegation workers) hits the same bug.
Solution: A tiny bootstrap module (hermes_bootstrap.py) imported as the
first statement of every Hermes entry point:
- hermes_cli/main.py (hermes / hermes-agent console_script)
- run_agent.py (hermes-agent direct)
- acp_adapter/entry.py (hermes-acp)
- gateway/run.py (messaging gateway)
- batch_runner.py (parallel batch mode)
- cli.py (legacy direct-launch CLI)
On Windows, the bootstrap:
- os.environ.setdefault('PYTHONUTF8', '1') (PEP 540 UTF-8 mode)
- os.environ.setdefault('PYTHONIOENCODING', 'utf-8')
- sys.stdout/stderr/stdin.reconfigure(encoding='utf-8', errors='replace')
Children inherit the env vars → they run in UTF-8 mode.
Current process's stdio is reconfigured → print('café') works now.
On POSIX (Linux/macOS), the bootstrap is a complete no-op. We don't
touch LANG, LC_*, or anything else — users who have intentionally
configured a non-UTF-8 locale aren't affected. POSIX systems are
already UTF-8 by default in 99% of modern setups, so there's nothing
to fix.
setdefault() (not overwrite) means users who explicitly set PYTHONUTF8=0
or PYTHONIOENCODING=cp1252 in their environment are respected.
What this does NOT fix: bare open(path, 'w') calls in the *parent*
process still default to locale encoding because PYTHONUTF8 is only
read at interpreter init. A ruff PLW1514 sweep (separate follow-up)
will add explicit encoding='utf-8' at those ~219 call sites for
belt-and-suspenders.
Tests (17): 16 passed, 1 skipped on Windows.
- Windows: env vars set, stdio reconfigured, child inherits UTF-8 mode
- POSIX: complete no-op (verified on fake POSIX + skipped on real
POSIX since we don't have a Linux box in this session)
- Idempotence: multiple calls safe
- Graceful degradation: non-reconfigurable streams don't crash
- User opt-out: explicit PYTHONUTF8=0 is respected
- Load order: every entry point's FIRST top-level import is
hermes_bootstrap, enforced by an AST-level parametrized test
pyproject.toml: added hermes_bootstrap to py-modules so it ships with
pip installs.
Second pass on native Windows support, driven by a systematic audit across
five areas: POSIX-only primitives (signal.SIGKILL/SIGHUP/SIGPIPE, os.WNOHANG,
os.setsid), path translation bugs (/c/Users → C:\Users), subprocess patterns
(npm.cmd batch shims, start_new_session no-op on Windows), subsystem health
(cron, gateway daemon, update flow), and module-level import guards.
Every change is platform-gated — POSIX (Linux/macOS) behaviour is preserved
bit-identical. Explicit "do no harm" test: test_posix_path_preserved_on_linux,
test_posix_noop, test_windows_detach_popen_kwargs_is_posix_equivalent_on_posix.
## New module
- hermes_cli/_subprocess_compat.py — shared helpers (resolve_node_command,
windows_detach_flags, windows_hide_flags, windows_detach_popen_kwargs).
All no-ops on non-Windows.
## CRITICAL fixes (would crash or silently break on Windows)
- tui_gateway/entry.py: SIGPIPE/SIGHUP referenced at module top level would
AttributeError on import on Windows, breaking `hermes --tui` entirely (it
spawns this module as a subprocess). Guard each signal.signal() call with
hasattr() and add SIGBREAK as Windows' SIGHUP equivalent.
- hermes_cli/kanban_db.py: os.waitpid(-1, os.WNOHANG) in dispatcher tick was
unguarded. os.WNOHANG doesn't exist on Windows. Gate the whole reap loop
behind `os.name != "nt"` — Windows has no zombies anyway.
- tools/code_execution_tool.py: AF_UNIX socket for execute_code RPC fails on
most Windows builds. Fall back to loopback TCP (AF_INET on 127.0.0.1:0
ephemeral port) when _IS_WINDOWS. HERMES_RPC_SOCKET env var now accepts
either a filesystem path (POSIX) or `tcp://127.0.0.1:<port>` (Windows).
Generated sandbox client parses both.
- cron/scheduler.py: `argv = ["/bin/bash", str(path)]` hardcoded. Use
shutil.which("bash") so Windows (Git Bash via MinGit) works, with a
readable error when bash is genuinely absent.
- 6 bare npm/npx spawn sites: tools_config.py x2, doctor.py, whatsapp.py
(npm install + node version probe), browser_tool.py x2. On Windows npm
is npm.cmd / npx is npx.cmd (batch shims); subprocess.Popen(["npm", ...])
fails with WinError 193. shutil.which(...) returns the absolute .cmd
path which CreateProcessW accepts because the extension routes through
cmd.exe /c. POSIX behaviour unchanged (shutil.which still returns the
same path subprocess would resolve itself).
## HIGH fixes (silent misbehaviour on Windows)
- tools/environments/local.py get_temp_dir: hardcoded /tmp returned on
Windows meant `_cwd_file = "/tmp/hermes-cwd-*.txt"`, which bash wrote
via MSYS2's virtual /tmp but native Python couldn't open. Result: cwd
tracking silently broken — `cd` in terminal tool did nothing. Windows
branch now returns `%HERMES_HOME%/cache/terminal` with forward slashes
(works in both bash and Python, guaranteed no spaces).
- tools/environments/local.py _make_run_env PATH injection: `/usr/bin not
in split(":")` heuristic mangles Windows PATH (";" separator). Gate
the injection behind `not _IS_WINDOWS`.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py launch_detached_profile_gateway_restart: outer
Popen + watcher-script Popen both used start_new_session=True, which
Windows silently ignores. Watcher stayed attached to CLI's console,
died when user closed terminal after `hermes update`, left gateway
stale. Now branches through windows_detach_popen_kwargs() helper
(CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP | DETACHED_PROCESS | CREATE_NO_WINDOW on
Windows, start_new_session=True on POSIX — identical to main).
## MEDIUM fixes
- gateway/run.py /restart and /update handlers: hardcoded bash/setsid
chain crashes on Windows when user triggers /update in-gateway. Now
has sys.platform=="win32" branch using sys.executable + a tiny
Python watcher with proper detach flags. POSIX path is unchanged.
- cli.py _git_repo_root: Git on Windows sometimes returns /c/Users/...
style paths that break subprocess.Popen(cwd=...) and Path().resolve().
Added _normalize_git_bash_path() helper that translates /c/Users,
/cygdrive/c, /mnt/c variants to native C:\Users form. POSIX no-op.
_git_repo_root() now routes every result through it.
- cli.py worktree .worktreeinclude: os.symlink on directories failed
hard on Windows (requires admin or Developer Mode). Falls back to
shutil.copytree with a warning log.
## Tests
- 29 new tests in tests/tools/test_windows_native_support.py covering:
subprocess_compat helpers, TUI entry signal guards, kanban waitpid
guard, code_execution TCP fallback source-level invariants, cron bash
resolution, npm/npx bare-spawn lint per-file, local env Windows temp
dir, PATH injection gating, git bash path normalization, symlink
fallback, gateway detached watcher flags.
- One existing test assertion adjusted in test_browser_homebrew_paths:
it compared captured Popen argv to the BARE `"npx"` literal; after the
shutil.which() change argv[0] is the absolute path. New assertion
checks the shape (two items, second is `agent-browser`) rather than
the exact first-item string. Behaviour unchanged; test was too strict.
All 56 tests pass on Linux (30 from previous commits + 26 new).
267 tests from the affected files/dirs (browser, code_exec, local_env,
process_registry, kanban_db, windows_compat) all pass — zero regressions.
tests/hermes_cli/ (3909 pass) and tests/gateway/ (5021 pass) unchanged;
all pre-existing test failures confirmed unrelated via `git stash` re-run.
## What's still deferred (LOW priority)
- Visible cmd-window flashes on short-lived console apps (~14 sites) —
cosmetic, needs a follow-up pass once we have user reports.
- agent/file_safety.py POSIX-only security deny patterns — separate
hardening task.
- tools/process_registry.py returning "/tmp" as fallback — theoretical;
reachable only when all env-var candidates fail.
Native Windows (with Git for Windows installed) can now run the Hermes CLI
and gateway end-to-end without crashing. install.ps1 already existed and
the Git Bash terminal backend was already wired up — this PR fills the
remaining gaps discovered by auditing every Windows-unsafe primitive
(`signal.SIGKILL`, `os.kill(pid, 0)` probes, bare `fcntl`/`termios`
imports) and by comparing hermes against how Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex,
and Cline handle native Windows.
## What changed
### UTF-8 stdio (new module)
- `hermes_cli/stdio.py` — single `configure_windows_stdio()` entry point.
Flips the console code page to CP_UTF8 (65001), reconfigures
`sys.stdout`/`stderr`/`stdin` to UTF-8, sets `PYTHONIOENCODING` + `PYTHONUTF8`
for subprocesses. No-op on non-Windows. Opt out via `HERMES_DISABLE_WINDOWS_UTF8=1`.
- Called early in `cli.py::main`, `hermes_cli/main.py::main`, and
`gateway/run.py::main` so Unicode banners (box-drawing, geometric
symbols, non-Latin chat text) don't `UnicodeEncodeError` on cp1252
consoles.
### Crash sites fixed
- `hermes_cli/main.py:7970` (hermes update → stuck gateway sweep): raw
`os.kill(pid, _signal.SIGKILL)` → `gateway.status.terminate_pid(pid, force=True)`
which routes through `taskkill /T /F` on Windows.
- `hermes_cli/profiles.py::_stop_gateway_process`: same fix — also
converted SIGTERM path to `terminate_pid()` and widened OSError catch
on the intermediate `os.kill(pid, 0)` probe.
- `hermes_cli/kanban_db.py:2914, 3041`: raw `signal.SIGKILL` →
`getattr(signal, "SIGKILL", signal.SIGTERM)` fallback (matches the
pattern already used in `gateway/status.py`).
### OSError widening on `os.kill(pid, 0)` probes
Windows raises `OSError` (WinError 87) for a gone PID instead of
`ProcessLookupError`. Widened the catch at:
- `gateway/run.py:15101` (`--replace` wait-for-exit loop — without this,
the loop busy-spins the full 10s every Windows gateway start)
- `hermes_cli/gateway.py:228, 460, 940`
- `hermes_cli/profiles.py:777`
- `tools/process_registry.py::_is_host_pid_alive`
- `tools/browser_tool.py:1170, 1206`
### Dashboard PTY graceful degradation
`hermes_cli/pty_bridge.py` depends on `fcntl`/`termios`/`ptyprocess`,
none of which exist on native Windows. Previously a Windows dashboard
would crash on `import hermes_cli.web_server` because of a top-level
import. Now:
- `hermes_cli/web_server.py` wraps the pty_bridge import in
`try/except ImportError` and sets `_PTY_BRIDGE_AVAILABLE=False`.
- The `/api/pty` WebSocket handler returns a friendly "use WSL2 for
this tab" message instead of exploding.
- Every other dashboard feature (sessions, jobs, metrics, config
editor) runs natively on Windows.
### Dependency
- `pyproject.toml`: add `tzdata>=2023.3; sys_platform == 'win32'` so
Python's `zoneinfo` works on Windows (which has no IANA tzdata
shipped with the OS). Credits @sprmn24 (PR #13182).
### Docs
- README.md: removed "Native Windows is not supported"; added
PowerShell one-liner and Git-for-Windows prerequisite note.
- `website/docs/getting-started/installation.md`: new Windows section
with capability matrix (everything native except the dashboard
`/chat` PTY tab, which is WSL2-only).
- `website/docs/user-guide/windows-wsl-quickstart.md`: reframed as
"WSL2 as an alternative to native" rather than "the only way".
- `website/docs/developer-guide/contributing.md`: updated
cross-platform guidance with the `signal.SIGKILL` / `OSError`
rules we enforce now.
- `website/docs/user-guide/features/web-dashboard.md`: acknowledged
native Windows works for everything except the embedded PTY pane.
## Why this shape
Pulled from a survey of how other agent codebases handle native
Windows (Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Cline):
- All four treat Git Bash as the canonical shell on Windows, same as
hermes already does in `tools/environments/local.py::_find_bash()`.
- None of them force `SetConsoleOutputCP` — but they don't have to,
Node/Rust write UTF-16 to the Win32 console API. Python does not get
that for free, so we flip CP_UTF8 via ctypes.
- None of them ship PowerShell-as-primary-shell (Claude Code exposes
PS as a secondary tool; scope creep for this PR).
- All of them use `taskkill /T /F` for force-kill on Windows, which
is exactly what `gateway.status.terminate_pid(force=True)` does.
## Non-goals (deliberate scope limits)
- No PowerShell-as-a-second-shell tool — worth designing separately.
- No terminal routing rewrite (#12317, #15461, #19800 cluster) — that's
the hardest design call and needs a separate doc.
- No wholesale `open()` → `open(..., encoding="utf-8")` sweep (Tianworld
cluster) — will do as follow-up if users hit actual breakage; most
modern code already specifies it.
## Validation
- 28 new tests in `tests/tools/test_windows_native_support.py` — all
platform-mocked, pass on Linux CI. Cover:
- `configure_windows_stdio` idempotency, opt-out, env-preservation
- `terminate_pid` taskkill routing, failure → OSError, FileNotFoundError fallback
- `getattr(signal, "SIGKILL", …)` fallback shape
- `_is_host_pid_alive` OSError widening (Windows-gone-PID behavior)
- Source-level checks that all entry points call `configure_windows_stdio`
- pty_bridge import-guard present in `web_server.py`
- README no longer says "not supported"
- 12 pre-existing tests in `tests/tools/test_windows_compat.py` still pass.
- `tests/hermes_cli/` ran fully (3909 passed, 9 failures — all confirmed
pre-existing on main by stash-test).
- `tests/gateway/` ran fully (5021 passed, 1 pre-existing failure).
- `tests/tools/test_process_registry.py` + `test_browser_*` pass.
- Manual smoke: `import hermes_cli.stdio; import gateway.run;
import hermes_cli.web_server` — all clean, `_PTY_BRIDGE_AVAILABLE=True`
on Linux (as expected).

Third slice of the Microsoft Teams meeting pipeline stack, salvaged
onto current main. Adds the standalone teams_pipeline plugin that
consumes Graph change notifications from the webhook listener,
resolves meeting artifacts (transcript first, recording + STT fallback
later), persists job state in a durable store, and exposes an operator
CLI for inspection, replay, subscription management, and validation.
Design choices follow maintainer review feedback on PR #19815:
- Standalone plugin rather than bolted-on core surface
(plugins/teams_pipeline/, kind: standalone in plugin.yaml).
- Zero new model tools. The agent drives the pipeline by invoking
the operator CLI via the terminal tool, guided by the skill that
ships with a follow-up PR.
- Reuses the existing msgraph_webhook gateway platform for Graph
ingress. Pipeline runtime is wired in via bind_gateway_runtime and
gated on plugins.enabled so gateways that don't run the plugin
boot cleanly.
Additions:
- plugins/teams_pipeline/: runtime (gateway wiring + config builder),
pipeline core, durable SQLite store, subscription maintenance
helpers, Graph artifact resolution, operator CLI (list, show,
run/replay, fetch dry-run, subscriptions list, subscribe,
renew-subscription, delete-subscription, maintain-subscriptions,
token-health, validate).
- hermes_cli/main.py: second-pass plugin CLI discovery so any
standalone plugin registered via ctx.register_cli_command()
outside the memory-plugin convention path gets its subcommand
wired into argparse without touching core.
- gateway/run.py: _teams_pipeline_plugin_enabled() config gate,
_wire_teams_pipeline_runtime() binding after adapter setup, and
the two runner attributes used by the runtime.
Credit to @dlkakbs for the entire plugin implementation.
Defense-in-depth polish on top of the webhook listener before it becomes
a real attack surface once the pipeline starts creating subscriptions
and Graph starts POSTing to the configured public URL.
- Timing-safe clientState comparison. Previously used `==` on strings;
switches to hmac.compare_digest so a mismatch does not leak how many
leading characters matched. client_state is documented as a strong
shared secret (openssl rand -hex 32 in the setup docs), so a
timing-safe primitive is the right call.
- Split GET and POST handlers. Graph validates a subscription by sending
GET with validationToken in the query; anything else on GET is now a
400 so the endpoint cannot be probed or mistakenly used for data
exfil. Previously a bare GET fell through to the POST path and blew
up on request.json() with a confusing 400.
- Empty response bodies on success. 202 is returned with no body so
internal counters (accepted / duplicates / scheduled) do not leak to
any caller that can reach the endpoint; counters remain observable
via /health for operators. 403 on every-item-bad-clientState batches
(so forged POSTs stop retrying), 400 on malformed / unknown-resource
batches (sender configuration issue).
- Optional source-IP allowlist. New `allowed_source_cidrs` extra field
(list or comma-separated string) and `MSGRAPH_WEBHOOK_ALLOWED_SOURCE_CIDRS`
env var let operators restrict the webhook to Microsoft Graph's
published webhook source ranges in production. Empty = allow all,
preserving dev-tunnel / localhost workflows. Invalid CIDRs are
logged and ignored rather than crashing. Also gates the handshake
endpoint so disallowed IPs cannot probe it.
- Tests updated for the new response contract (empty-body 202,
auth-only 403, config-error 400) and extended to cover: bare GET
rejection, POST-with-validationToken handshake tolerance,
timing-safe compare actually invoked via hmac.compare_digest spy,
malformed body / missing value array, IP allowlist accept/reject
paths, handshake IP allowlist, invalid CIDR entries, comma-string
CIDR list parsing. 52/52 passed (was 40).
Full gateway suite: 5049 passed / 1 pre-existing failure in
test_discord_free_response (unrelated, reproduces on clean origin/main).
Route goal status notices through the platform adapter send API and register post-delivery callbacks so completed-goal notices appear after the final assistant response. Also cancel queued synthetic goal continuations on /goal pause and /goal clear while preserving normal queued user messages.
The May 5 refactor in d5357f816 made _message_thread_id_for_typing()
symmetric with _message_thread_id_for_send() by mapping the General
topic (thread id "1") to None upfront for both. That's correct for
sendMessage — Telegram rejects message_thread_id=1 on sends and the
topic must be omitted — but it's wrong for sendChatAction.
Observed behavior (confirmed via before/after Telegram wire traces):
Before d5357f816: thread_id=1 → message_thread_id=1 → bubble visible in General
After d5357f816: thread_id=1 → message_thread_id=None → no visible typing
Omitting message_thread_id on sendChatAction does NOT fall back to
the General topic's view in a forum-enabled supergroup; the bubble
ends up hidden from the client's General-topic pane entirely. For
any user on a forum-group, the typing indicator stopped appearing.
Fix: drop the symmetric "1 → None" mapping from the typing resolver.
sendMessage still maps 1 → None via _message_thread_id_for_send (that
side was never broken). The asymmetry is real and required by
Telegram's API — document it in the resolver docstring.
Partial revert of d5357f816; restores the behavior from 0cf7d570e
("fix(telegram): restore typing indicator and thread routing for
forum General topic"). Does not re-introduce the retry-without-thread
fallback that 41545f7ec scoped down for DM topics — with the resolver
fixed, the first call already hits the right wire shape.
Test updated from test_send_typing_general_topic_uses_none_thread_id
(which encoded the broken contract) to
test_send_typing_preserves_general_topic_thread_id, asserting the
single correct call with message_thread_id=1. 10 other tests in the
file untouched and passing.
Makes the in-tree QQ inline keyboards actually light up when the agent
blocks on a dangerous-command approval. Matches the cross-adapter
gateway contract already implemented by Discord, Telegram, Slack,
Matrix, and Feishu.
Gateway/run.py's _approval_notify_sync checks type(adapter).send_exec_approval
and falls back to a text prompt when it's missing. Without this wiring,
QQ users stared at plain '/approve' text even though the adapter shipped
button primitives.
### send_exec_approval(chat_id, command, session_key, description, metadata)
Matches the signature the gateway calls with. Builds an ApprovalRequest
(command_preview, description, timeout) and delegates to send_approval_request.
Uses the last inbound msg_id as reply_to so QQ accepts the passive
message. The 'metadata' parameter is accepted for contract parity but
intentionally unused — QQ doesn't have thread_id/DM-targeting overrides.
### send_update_prompt(chat_id, prompt, default, session_key, metadata)
Signature updated to match the cross-adapter contract used by
'hermes update --gateway' watcher. Renders a 'Update Needs Your Input'
prompt with the optional default hint and a Yes/No keyboard. Replaces
the earlier 3-arg helper that wasn't wired anywhere.
### Default interaction dispatcher
_default_interaction_dispatch() auto-registered as the adapter's
interaction callback in __init__. Routes:
- approve:<session_key>:<decision> → tools.approval.resolve_gateway_approval
Button → choice mapping:
allow-once → 'once'
allow-always → 'always'
deny → 'deny'
(QQ's 3-button mobile layout deliberately collapses 'session' + 'always'
into one button; /approve session text fallback remains available.)
- update_prompt:<answer> → atomic write of y/n to ~/.hermes/.update_response
(the detached 'hermes update --gateway' watcher polls this file)
- anything else → logged and dropped
Resolve exceptions are caught and logged — never propagate into the WS
loop. Callers can override via set_interaction_callback() to route
clicks elsewhere or pass None to drop them entirely.
### Net effect
QQ users now get native tap-to-approve UX on dangerous-command prompts
and update-confirmation prompts, without having to type /approve or /deny
as text. The adapter hooks into tools.approval the same way every other
button-capable platform does.
### Tests
14 new tests cover:
- Default callback installed on __init__
- send_exec_approval / send_update_prompt exist as class methods (so the
gateway's type-probe detects them)
- allow-once/always/deny each map to the correct resolve choice
- update_prompt:y / update_prompt:n each write atomically to the response
file (via monkeypatched get_hermes_home)
- Unknown button_data / empty button_data / resolve exceptions are harmless
- send_exec_approval honours last_msg_id reply-to and accepts metadata
- send_update_prompt delegates with correct content + keyboard
Full qqbot suite: 144 passed (72 pre-existing + 72 from this salvage arc).
Also ran tools/test_approval.py alongside — no regressions (276 passed
combined).

Follow-up to the previous commit:
- Add _is_loopback_host() helper covering 127.0.0.1, localhost, ::1,
ip6-localhost, ip6-loopback (case-insensitive). Empty/None host is
treated as non-loopback since unset usually means public default bind.
- Fix mixed-indent comment in the safety rail (comment now aligned with
the if-block) and collapse the nested-if into one condition.
- Add TestInsecureNoAuthSafetyRail covering rejection on 0.0.0.0, a LAN
IP, and empty host; allowance on 127.0.0.1/localhost; plus unit-level
parametrized coverage of _is_loopback_host for spellings we can't bind
in the hermetic test env (::1, ip6-localhost, ip6-loopback).
- Pin test_connect_starts_server + test_webhook_deliver_only defaults
to 127.0.0.1 so they keep passing under the new rail.
- Document the behavior in website/docs/user-guide/messaging/webhooks.md.
Following PR #21306 which added the new generic plugin-platform hooks,
update the three platform-authoring docs so plugin authors find them:
- website/docs/developer-guide/adding-platform-adapters.md: expand the
'What the Plugin System Handles Automatically' table with env-only
auto-enable + cron delivery + hermes-config UI entries rows. Add
three new sections — 'Env-Driven Auto-Configuration', 'Cron
Delivery', 'Surfacing Env Vars in hermes config' — covering the
hook signatures, plugin.yaml rich-dict format, and the
home_channel-key special case. Update the main register() example
to pass env_enablement_fn + cron_deliver_env_var inline so readers
see them on their first pass. Upgrade the PLUGIN.yaml snippet to
show bare-string + rich-dict + optional_env.
- website/docs/guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md: the thin platform
example in the build-a-plugin tour now includes env_enablement_fn
and cron_deliver_env_var, plus an optional_env block in the inline
plugin.yaml. Keeps pointing to the developer-guide page for the
full treatment.
- gateway/platforms/ADDING_A_PLATFORM.md: the in-repo reference
shallow-points at the docsite but now names the three new hooks
explicitly so contributors reading the source tree know what
they're for. Also adds teams + google_chat as reference
implementations alongside irc.
When a user replies while quoting another message, QQ sets
'message_type = 103' and pushes the referenced message's content +
attachments inside 'msg_elements[0]'. The old adapter ignored
msg_elements entirely, so:
- Bare quote-replies (no user text) surfaced nothing to the LLM.
- Quoted images/files/voice were never downloaded or described.
- Quoted voice messages specifically produced no transcript — the model
had no way to see what the user was referring to when saying 'about
this voice note…'.
This commit adds _process_quoted_context(d) which extracts msg_elements,
unions their attachments, and runs them through the SAME
_process_attachments pipeline as the main message body. Quoted voice
gets an STT transcript (tried via QQ's asr_refer_text first, then the
configured STT provider); quoted images get cached just like main-body
images; quoted files surface with their original filename intact (not
the CDN URL hash).
The quoted content is prepended to the user's text as a '[Quoted message]:'
block so the LLM sees the full referential context on one turn.
Images-only quotes surface a '[Quoted message]: (image)' marker so the
model knows an image was referenced even if no text came with it.
All four inbound handlers (_handle_c2c_message, _handle_group_message,
_handle_guild_message, _handle_dm_message) now call the helper uniformly
— one merge pattern, not four divergent implementations.
Filename preservation is carried by _process_attachments' existing
'[Attachment: {filename or ct}]' line; nothing else needed for that.
12 new tests under TestProcessQuotedContext and TestMergeQuoteInto cover:
- Non-quote messages short-circuit to empty
- message_type=103 with no msg_elements is harmless
- Text-only quotes render with '[Quoted message]:' prefix
- Voice attachments in the quote flow through STT
- File attachments in the quote preserve the original filename
- Image attachments surface cached paths + media types
- Images-only quote still emits a marker
- Multiple msg_elements are concatenated
- Malformed message_type values return empty
- _merge_quote_into prepends with a blank-line separator

The QQ Bot v2 API supports inline keyboards on outbound messages. When a
user taps a button, the platform dispatches an INTERACTION_CREATE
gateway event; the bot ACKs it via PUT /interactions/{id} and decodes
the button's data payload to route the click.
This commit adds:
New module gateway/platforms/qqbot/keyboards.py
- Inline-keyboard dataclasses (InlineKeyboard, KeyboardRow, KeyboardButton,
KeyboardButtonAction, KeyboardButtonRenderData, KeyboardButtonPermission)
that serialize to the JSON shape the QQ API expects.
- build_approval_keyboard(session_key) — 3-button layout:
✅ 允许一次 / ⭐ 始终允许 / ❌ 拒绝, all sharing group_id='approval'
so clicking one greys out the rest.
- build_update_prompt_keyboard() — Yes/No keyboard for update confirms.
- parse_approval_button_data() / parse_update_prompt_button_data() —
decode the button_data payload from INTERACTION_CREATE.
approve:<session_key>:<decision> (decision = allow-once|allow-always|deny)
update_prompt:<answer> (answer = y|n)
- build_approval_text(ApprovalRequest) — markdown renderer for the
surrounding message body (exec-approval and plugin-approval variants,
with severity icons 🔴/🔵/🟡).
- parse_interaction_event(raw) → InteractionEvent dataclass — normalizes
the nested raw payload (id / scene / openids / button_data / etc.).
Adapter changes (gateway/platforms/qqbot/adapter.py)
- _dispatch_payload routes INTERACTION_CREATE → _on_interaction.
- _on_interaction parses the event, ACKs via PUT /interactions/{id}, then
invokes a user-registered interaction callback. Exceptions from the
callback are caught and logged (never propagate into the WS loop).
- set_interaction_callback(cb) lets gateway wiring register a routing
handler that inspects button_data and resolves the corresponding
pending approval / update prompt.
- _send_c2c_text / _send_group_text now accept an optional keyboard kwarg
and append it to the outbound body.
- send_with_keyboard(chat_id, content, keyboard, reply_to=None) — public
helper that sends a single short message with a keyboard attached.
Does NOT chunk-split (a keyboard message has one interactive surface).
Guild chats are rejected non-retryably — they don't support keyboards.
- send_approval_request(chat_id, ApprovalRequest, reply_to=None) +
send_update_prompt(chat_id, content, reply_to=None) — convenience
wrappers over send_with_keyboard.
Tests
27 new unit tests under TestApprovalButtonData, TestUpdatePromptButtonData,
TestBuildApprovalKeyboard, TestBuildUpdatePromptKeyboard, TestBuildApprovalText,
TestInteractionEventParsing, and TestAdapterInteractionDispatch. Cover:
- Button-data round-trip (build → parse returns original session/decision)
- Keyboard JSON shape + mutual-exclusion group_id
- Exec vs plugin approval text templates + severity icons
- Interaction event parsing (c2c / group / guild scene codes)
- _on_interaction end-to-end: ACK invoked, callback receives parsed event,
callback exceptions are swallowed, missing id skips ACK, no registered
callback is harmless.
Full qqbot suite: 118 passed (72 existing + 19 chunked + 27 keyboards).

The v2 'single POST /v2/{users|groups}/{id}/files' upload path is capped
at ~10 MB inline (base64 'file_data' or 'url'). For larger files the QQ
platform provides a three-step flow:
1. POST /upload_prepare → upload_id + pre-signed COS part URLs
2. PUT each part to its COS URL → POST /upload_part_finish
3. POST /files with {upload_id} → file_info token
This commit adds a new gateway/platforms/qqbot/chunked_upload.py module
that implements the flow, wires it into QQAdapter._send_media for local
files (URL uploads keep the existing inline path), and introduces
structured exceptions so the caller can surface actionable error text:
- UploadDailyLimitExceededError (biz_code 40093002, non-retryable)
- UploadFileTooLargeError (file exceeds the platform limit)
Both carry file_name / file_size_human / limit_human so the model can
compose user-friendly replies instead of seeing opaque HTTP codes.
The part_finish 40093001 retryable-error loop respects the server-
provided retry_timeout (capped at 10 minutes locally) with a 1 s
polling interval. COS PUTs retry transient failures up to 2 times
with exponential backoff. complete_upload retries up to 2 times.
Covers files up to the platform's ~100 MB per-file limit; before this
the adapter silently rejected anything over ~10 MB.
19 new unit tests under TestChunkedUpload* cover the happy path,
prepare-response parsing, helper functions, part retries, COS PUT
retries, group vs c2c routing, and the structured-error mapping.

PairingStore.approve_code() didn't consult _is_locked_out(), so after
MAX_FAILED_ATTEMPTS bad approvals the lockout flag was set but a valid
code still got accepted — any pending code (legitimately issued or
attacker-obtained) could be approved during the 1-hour lockout window,
nullifying the brute-force protection.
- gateway/pairing.py: lockout check runs in approve_code() right after
_cleanup_expired, before the pending lookup. Returns None on lockout.
- tests/gateway/test_pairing.py: test_lockout_blocks_code_approval pins
the regression — reporter's exact reproducer (generate valid code,
exhaust attempts with WRONGCODE, try to approve valid code) must
return None and leave is_approved == False. Also pins recovery: once
lockout expires, the still-pending code approves normally.
- hermes_cli/pairing.py: _cmd_approve distinguishes the two None cases.
On lockout, prints 'Platform locked out... clears in N minutes. To
reset sooner, delete the _lockout:<platform> entry from
_rate_limits.json' instead of the misleading 'Code not found or
expired' message. 29/29 pairing tests pass; E2E-verified with
reporter's exact Python reproducer.
Widen the platform-plugin surface so plugins can self-configure from env
vars and opt into cron home-channel delivery without editing core files.
Closes the scope gap that forced every new platform (Google Chat, Teams,
IRC, future) to either touch gateway/config.py, cron/scheduler.py, and
hermes_cli/config.py or live without env-only setup.
Changes:
- gateway/platform_registry.py: two new optional PlatformEntry fields.
- env_enablement_fn: () -> Optional[dict]. Called during
_apply_env_overrides BEFORE the adapter is constructed. Returned
dict fields are merged into PlatformConfig.extra; the special
'home_channel' key (if present) becomes a proper HomeChannel
dataclass on the PlatformConfig.
- cron_deliver_env_var: name of the *_HOME_CHANNEL env var. When set,
the plugin platform is a valid cron deliver= target and cron reads
the env var to resolve the default chat/room ID.
- gateway/config.py: the existing plugin-platform enable pass at the
bottom of _apply_env_overrides now calls env_enablement_fn and seeds
extras/home_channel. No effect on plugins that don't set the new
field.
- cron/scheduler.py: _is_known_delivery_platform and
_resolve_home_env_var fall through to the registry when the platform
isn't in the hardcoded built-in sets. New _iter_home_target_platforms
helper iterates built-ins + plugin platforms for the deliver=origin
fallback.
- gateway/run.py: _home_target_env_var now consults the new resolver so
plugin-defined home channels work for non-cron call sites too.
- hermes_cli/config.py: new _inject_platform_plugin_env_vars() sibling
of _inject_profile_env_vars(). Scans plugins/platforms/*/plugin.yaml
at import time and contributes entries to OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS so
'hermes config' UI discovers them. Supports bare-string and rich-dict
requires_env entries plus a new optional_env list for non-required
vars (home channels, allowlists).
All additions are strictly opt-in. Existing plugins (IRC, Teams,
image_gen, memory) see zero behavior change until they adopt the new
fields.
Mirrors the Slack `allowed_channels` feature (PR #7401) and Discord's
`allowed_channels` (PR #7044) across the remaining group-capable platforms.
All five platforms (Slack + Discord + the four added here) now follow the
same pattern: primary config via config.yaml, env-var fallback as an escape
hatch — matching the project policy that .env is for secrets only and
behavioral settings belong in config.yaml.
Also fixes a duplicate `slack` key in DEFAULT_CONFIG introduced by PR
#7401 (the later entry silently overwrote `allowed_channels`, `require_mention`,
and `free_response_channels` at dict-literal evaluation time).
Platforms added:
- Telegram: `telegram.allowed_chats` (env alias: `TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_CHATS`)
- Mattermost: `mattermost.allowed_channels` (env alias: `MATTERMOST_ALLOWED_CHANNELS`)
- Matrix: `matrix.allowed_rooms` (env alias: `MATRIX_ALLOWED_ROOMS`)
- DingTalk: `dingtalk.allowed_chats` (env alias: `DINGTALK_ALLOWED_CHATS`)
Mattermost and Matrix previously had NO config.yaml bridging for any of
their gating settings; this PR adds `load_gateway_config` bridges for them
(Mattermost gets require_mention + free_response_channels + allowed_channels;
Matrix gets allowed_rooms on top of its existing bridges for require_mention
and free_response_rooms).
Semantics identical everywhere:
- Empty = no restriction (fully backward compatible).
- Non-empty = hard whitelist: non-listed chats are silently ignored,
even when the bot is @mentioned.
- DMs bypass the check entirely.
DEFAULT_CONFIG merges the duplicate `slack` block and adds new `mattermost`
and `matrix` blocks so all gating settings surface in defaults.
Not included: Feishu (has its own per-chat `chat_rules` system that covers
this use case differently), WhatsApp (already has `group_allow_from` via
`group_policy: allowlist`), pure-DM platforms (Signal, SMS, BlueBubbles,
Yuanbao — no group concept).
Extracts the three try/write_runtime_status/except-log blocks into a
shared _write_runtime_status_safe() helper. On failure, logs the first
occurrence per (platform, context) at warning level and downgrades
subsequent failures to debug — so a persistently broken status dir
(permissions, ENOSPC) doesn't spam the log on every Telegram reconnect.
Uses getattr for the _status_write_logged set so test harnesses that
skip __init__ (object.__new__(Adapter)) don't break.
Follow-up to the salvaged #21158.
Per repo policy, ~/.hermes/.env is for secrets only. Guild IDs are
behavioral configuration, not secrets. Replacing the
DISCORD_DM_ROLE_AUTH_GUILD env var from the original fix with
discord.dm_role_auth_guild in config.yaml.
- New module-level _read_dm_role_auth_guild() helper reads
hermes_cli.config.read_raw_config()['discord']['dm_role_auth_guild'].
Fails closed on any parse error (safe default = DM role-auth off).
- DEFAULT_CONFIG['discord'] gains dm_role_auth_guild: '' with a comment
documenting the opt-in.
- Tests patch hermes_cli.config.read_raw_config directly (via the
_set_dm_role_auth_guild helper) instead of setenv/delenv. 12 tests
in test_discord_roles_dm_scope pass; no env var involvement.
- Docstring + module docstring + comments updated to reference
discord.dm_role_auth_guild.
- E2E verified with real imports across 6 scenarios: unset, int,
string, garbage, zero, and (crucially) env-var-only-no-config all
return None except the valid int/string cases. Env var has zero
effect — policy compliance confirmed.
Sibling-site fix: _evaluate_slash_authorization was the fourth
_is_allowed_user caller and didn't pass guild/is_dm through, so slash
interactions would take the DM branch regardless of whether they came
from a guild channel. Now reads interaction.guild + in_dm and forwards.
Also updates test_discord_slash_auth fixture (_make_interaction) so
the SimpleNamespace guild mock has a get_member(uid)->None method —
required by the new guild-scoped fallback path in _is_allowed_user.
Tests exercising positive role paths still work via user.roles.
Three new regression tests in test_discord_roles_dm_scope:
- Slash DM + role in mutual public guild → rejected
- Slash in guild B + role only in guild A → rejected
- Slash in guild B + role in guild B → allowed (positive control)
368 Discord tests pass. test_discord_free_channel_skips_auto_thread
also fails on clean main (pre-existing, unrelated to this fix).
The initial DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES implementation (#11608, merged from #9873)
scans every mutual guild when resolving a user's roles. This allows a
cross-guild DM bypass:
1. Bot is in both public server A and private server B.
2. User holds the allowed role in server A only.
3. User DMs the bot. The role check finds the role in A and authorizes the
DM, granting access as if the user were trusted in server B.
Fix:
- DMs (no guild context) disable role-based auth by default. Opt-in via
DISCORD_DM_ROLE_AUTH_GUILD=<guild_id> restricts role lookup to one
explicitly-trusted guild.
- Guild messages check roles only in the originating guild
(message.guild), never in other mutual guilds.
- Reject cached author.roles when the Member came from a different guild
than the current message.
Backwards compatibility:
- DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS behavior is unchanged (still works in both DMs
and guild messages).
- Deployments that rely on roles in guild channels continue to work;
role checks are now strictly scoped to that guild.
- Deployments that intentionally want role-based DM auth can opt into a
single trusted guild via DISCORD_DM_ROLE_AUTH_GUILD.
Tests: 9 new regression guards in
tests/gateway/test_discord_roles_dm_scope.py covering the bypass path,
the opt-in path, cross-guild guild-message bypass, and backwards-compat
user-ID paths. 47/47 discord-auth tests pass.

Fixes#19124
When a kanban worker subprocess exits rc=0 but its task is still in
status='running', the agent almost certainly answered the task
conversationally without calling kanban_complete or kanban_block. The
dispatcher used to classify this as a generic crash and respawn, which
loops forever on small local models (gemma4-e2b q4 etc.) that keep
returning clean but unproductive output.
Dispatcher changes:
- The waitpid reap loop at the top of dispatch_once now records each
reaped child's raw exit status in a bounded module registry
(_recent_worker_exits, TTL 600s, size cap 4096).
- _classify_worker_exit distinguishes clean_exit / nonzero_exit /
signaled / unknown using os.WIFEXITED / WIFSIGNALED.
- detect_crashed_workers consults the classification when a worker
is found dead. clean_exit → protocol_violation event + immediate
circuit-breaker trip (failure_limit=1). Everything else keeps the
existing crashed-event + counter behavior.
- DispatchResult.auto_blocked now includes protocol-violation trips.
Gateway fix (Bug A in #20894):
- gateway.run._notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown snapshots
self.adapters with list(...) before iterating. adapter.send() can
hit a fatal-error path that pops the adapter from the dict, which
was raising 'RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration'
during shutdown.
Regression tests:
- test_detect_crashed_workers_protocol_violation_auto_blocks verifies
rc=0 + still-running → status=blocked on first occurrence with
protocol_violation + gave_up events and NO crashed event.
- test_detect_crashed_workers_nonzero_exit_uses_default_limit verifies
non-zero exits keep the existing 2-strike behavior.
Closes#20894.
Skills that produce large/lossless images (e.g. info-graph, where a
rendered JPG is 1-2 MB) currently lose quality in Telegram delivery
because `_IMAGE_EXTS` membership routes the file through
`send_multiple_images` → `sendMediaGroup`, which Telegram's server
re-encodes to JPEG @ 1280px max edge. The original bytes only survive
when the file goes through `send_document`, which the dispatch tables
in three places (`_process_message_background`, `_deliver_media_from_response`,
and the `send_message` tool's telegram path) only reach for files
whose extension is NOT in `_IMAGE_EXTS`.
This commit adds an `[[as_document]]` directive that mirrors the
existing `[[audio_as_voice]]` shape: a skill emits the directive once
in its response, and every image-extension MEDIA: file in that response
is delivered via `send_document` instead of `send_multiple_images` /
`sendPhoto`. The directive is detected at the dispatch sites (which see
the raw response) and the directive string is stripped from the
user-visible cleaned text in `extract_media` so it never leaks.
Granularity is intentionally all-or-nothing per response, matching
[[audio_as_voice]]'s scope. Skills that need fine control can split into
two responses.
Verified the targeted use case: info-graph emits
信息图已生成（...）
[[as_document]]
MEDIA:/tmp/info-graph-x/infographic.jpg
→ Telegram receives `infographic.jpg` via sendDocument, original 1MB
JPEG bytes preserved, no recompression. Forwarding and download
filenames stay clean (`infographic.jpg`).
Tests: +3 cases in TestExtractMedia covering directive strip, isolation
from voice flag, and coexistence with [[audio_as_voice]]. All
113 pre-existing media/extract/send tests pass.

Follow-up on top of Zyproth's session-source cache: swap the unbounded
dict for an OrderedDict with a 512-entry LRU cap so long-running
gateways can't accumulate stale entries for dead sessions forever.
- self._session_sources is now an OrderedDict
- _cache_session_source() move_to_end + popitem(last=False) above cap
- _get_cached_session_source() move_to_end on hit (LRU read bump)
- restart_test_helpers.py wires OrderedDict + _session_sources_max
Flip the default for HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS from off to on so the redactor
already wired into send_message_tool, logs, and tool output actually runs
on a fresh install.
- agent/redact.py: env-var default "" → "true"
- hermes_cli/config.py: DEFAULT_CONFIG security.redact_secrets True;
two config-template comments rewritten
- gateway/run.py + cli.py: startup log / banner warning when the user
has explicitly opted out, so the downgrade is visible in agent.log
and at CLI banner time
- docs/reference/environment-variables.md: description reconciled
- tests: flipped the default-pin, restructured the force=True
regression test to explicit-false instead of unset
Users who need raw credential values (redactor development) can still
opt out via security.redact_secrets: false in config.yaml or
HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS=false in .env.
Closes#17691.
Addresses #20785 (short-term output-pipeline recommendation).
aiohttp ClientTimeout uses BaseTimerContext which calls
loop.call_later() internally. When invoked via
asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe() from cron jobs, this
triggers "Timeout context manager should be used inside a task"
errors, causing message delivery failures.
Replace all direct ClientTimeout usage with asyncio.wait_for():
- _upload_ciphertext: CDN upload (120s timeout)
- _download_bytes: CDN download (configurable timeout)
- _download_remote_media: remote media fetch (30s timeout)
Also set total=None on _send_session to disable aiohttp built-in
timeout, and change trust_env=True to False to bypass proxy for
WeChat CDN connections.
Follow-up on top of @kyan12's PR #20888 — same feature, cleaner shape,
wider coverage.
Changes:
- Drop the synthetic '[System note: ...]' in the internal MessageEvent.
The existing _is_resume_pending branch in _handle_message_with_agent
(run.py ~L13738) already injects a reason-aware recovery system note
on the next turn. With kyan's text in place the model saw two stacked
system notes. Now the event text is empty and the existing injection
path owns the wording.
- Drop SessionStore.list_resume_pending() as a new public method. The
filter is 8 lines inline in _schedule_resume_pending_sessions() —
one caller, no other pluggability need.
- Add 'restart_interrupted' to the auto-resume reason set. That's the
reason SessionStore.suspend_recently_active() stamps on sessions
recovered from a crash/OOM/SIGKILL (no .clean_shutdown marker).
Previously those sessions had to wait for a real user message to
auto-resume; now they continue automatically at startup like
drain-timeout interruptions do.
- Reasons live in a _AUTO_RESUME_REASONS frozenset at class scope so
future reasons (e.g. 'manual_resume_request') can be opted in with
one line.
Test coverage added:
- drain-timeout + crash-recovery both scheduled
- stale entries skipped (outside freshness window)
- suspended entries skipped (suspended > resume_pending)
- originless entries skipped (no routing target)
- disallowed reasons skipped (graceful forward-compat)
E2E verified end-to-end with a real on-disk SessionStore: 2 eligible
sessions scheduled, 2 ineligible skipped, empty-text internal events
delivered to the adapter.

When display.cleanup_progress (or display.platforms.<plat>.cleanup_progress)
is true, the gateway deletes tool-progress bubbles, long-running '⏳ Still
working...' notices, and status-callback messages after the final response
is delivered successfully. Currently effective on adapters that implement
delete_message (Telegram); silently no-ops elsewhere. Off by default.
Failed runs skip cleanup so bubbles stay as breadcrumbs.
Minimal plumbing: base.py's existing post_delivery_callback slot now chains
new registrations onto any existing callback (with per-callback exception
isolation) rather than clobbering. Stale-generation registrations are
rejected so they can't step on a fresher run's callbacks. This lets the
cleanup callback coexist with the background-review release hook already
registered on the same slot.

When terminal.backend is docker, inbound documents uploaded via messaging
platforms (Telegram, Slack, Discord, Feishu, Email, etc.) are cached at a host
path under ~/.hermes/cache/documents, but the container sandbox only sees them
at the auto-mounted /root/.hermes/cache/documents path.
This PR adds to_agent_visible_cache_path() in tools/credential_files.py (the
natural sibling to get_cache_directory_mounts()) and calls it at the
document-context-injection site in gateway/run.py so the agent always receives
a path it can open directly, matching the mount layout already established
by get_cache_directory_mounts() (#4846).
Scope: only Docker backend for now; other backends use different mount
semantics and are left unchanged until verified.
Fixes#18787
Two follow-ups on top of helix4u's slash-command sync hardening:
- Only suppress exceptions that are actually Discord 429 rate limits
(discord.RateLimited, HTTPException with status 429, or a clearly
rate-limit-named duck type). Arbitrary failures that happen to expose
a retry_after attribute now re-raise to the outer handler instead of
silently swallowing a cooldown.
- Move the sync-state JSON under $HERMES_HOME/gateway/ so the home root
stops collecting ad-hoc runtime files.
Added a test verifying unrelated exceptions don't get misclassified as
rate limits.
Extend the gateway_restart_notification flag to cover
_notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown — the message that fires just
before drain ("⚠️ Gateway restarting — Your current task will be
interrupted. Send any message after restart and I'll try to resume
where you left off.") sent to active sessions and home channels.
Same operator/end-user reasoning: on a Slack workspace shared with
end users, "Gateway restarting" reads as "the bot is broken" — the
operator should be able to suppress it consistently with the other
two lifecycle pings rather than having a partial opt-out.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds an opt-out toggle on PlatformConfig that gates both restart
lifecycle pings: the "♻ Gateway restarted" message sent to the chat
that issued /restart, and the "♻️ Gateway online" home-channel
startup notification. Defaults to True so existing deployments are
unaffected.
The motivating split is operator vs. end-user surfaces: a back-channel
like Telegram should keep these pings, while a Slack workspace shared
with end users should not surface gateway lifecycle noise.

- Remove dead metadata.get('reply_to') fallback in _send_raw_message;
nothing in the codebase ever sets 'reply_to' inside a metadata dict —
the key only appears as a top-level send_voice() keyword argument
- Simplify _status_thread_metadata construction in run.py to use a
single dict literal instead of create-then-mutate pattern; the
or-{} guard was dead since source.thread_id implies _progress_thread_id
is also set for Feishu
- Add yuqian@zmetasoft.com to AUTHOR_MAP for contributor attribution
Route Feishu topic progress, status, approval, stream, and fallback messages through threaded replies by preserving the originating message id as the reply target. Add regressions for tool progress topic metadata and Feishu metadata-driven reply routing.
Replaces the per-directory shadow-repo design with a single shared shadow
git store at ~/.hermes/checkpoints/store/. Object DB is now deduplicated
across every working directory the agent has ever touched; a dozen
worktrees of the same project cost near-zero in additional disk.
Why
---
Pre-v2 design had three compounding problems that let ~/.hermes/checkpoints/
grow to multi-GB on active machines:
1. Each working directory got its own full shadow git repo — no object
dedup across projects or across worktrees of the same project.
2. _prune() was a documented no-op: max_snapshots only limited the
/rollback listing. Loose objects accumulated forever.
3. Defaults: enabled=True, auto_prune=False — users paid the disk cost
without ever asking for /rollback.
Field report on a single workstation: 847 MB across 47 shadow repos,
mostly redundant clones of the hermes-agent source tree.
Changes
-------
- tools/checkpoint_manager.py: full rewrite. Single bare store, per-project
refs (refs/hermes/<hash>), per-project indexes (store/indexes/<hash>),
per-project metadata (store/projects/<hash>.json with workdir +
created_at + last_touch). On first v2 init, any pre-v2 per-directory
shadow repos are auto-migrated into legacy-<timestamp>/ so the new
store starts clean. _prune() now actually rewrites the per-project ref
to the last max_snapshots commits and runs git gc --prune=now. New
_enforce_size_cap() drops oldest commits round-robin across projects
when the store exceeds max_total_size_mb. _drop_oversize_from_index()
filters any single file larger than max_file_size_mb out of the snapshot.
- hermes_cli/checkpoints.py: new 'hermes checkpoints' CLI
(status / list / prune / clear / clear-legacy) for managing the store
outside a session.
- hermes_cli/config.py: flipped defaults — enabled=False, max_snapshots=20,
auto_prune=True. Added max_total_size_mb=500, max_file_size_mb=10.
Tightened DEFAULT_EXCLUDES (added target/, *.so/*.dylib/*.dll,
*.mp4/*.mov, *.zip/*.tar.gz, .worktrees/, .mypy_cache/, etc.).
- run_agent.py / cli.py / gateway/run.py: thread the new kwargs through
AIAgent and the startup auto_prune hooks.
- Tests rewritten to match v2 storage while keeping backwards-compat
coverage for the pre-v2 prune path (per-directory shadow repos under
base/ are still swept correctly for anyone mid-migration).
- Docs updated: user-guide/checkpoints-and-rollback.md explains the
shared store, new defaults, migration, and the new CLI;
reference/cli-commands.md documents 'hermes checkpoints'.
E2E validated
-------------
- Legacy migration: pre-v2 shadow repos auto-archived into legacy-<ts>/.
- Object dedup: two projects with an identical shared.py blob resolve to
7 total objects in the store (v1 would have stored the blob twice).
- max_snapshots=3 actually enforced: after 6 commits, list shows 3.
- Orphan prune: deleting a project's workdir + 'hermes checkpoints prune
--retention-days 0' removes its ref, index, and metadata; GC reclaims
the objects.
- max_file_size_mb=1 excludes a 2 MB weights.bin while keeping the
tracked source code files.
- hermes checkpoints {status,prune,clear,clear-legacy} all work from the
CLI without an agent running.
Breaking / migration
--------------------
No in-place data migration — legacy per-directory shadow repos are moved
into legacy-<timestamp>/ on first run. Old /rollback history is still
accessible by inspecting the archive with git; run
'hermes checkpoints clear-legacy' to reclaim the space when ready. Users

PR #17121 boundary marker fix already merged to main (2eef395e1).
PR #9262 user-message anchoring already on main via _ensure_last_user_message_in_tail().
Reduces SSE event rate ~500/turn → ~20/turn via 50ms text-delta batching in
_dispatch(), which eliminates markdown re-render storms on Open WebUI. Also:
- Trim tool_call.arguments in the response.completed event to 100KB
(prevents silent hangs on 848KB+ single-line SSE events).
- Catch-all exception handlers in _write_sse_responses() + _write_sse_chat_completion()
emit a proper error chunk instead of TransferEncodingError from incomplete
chunked encoding when the agent crashes mid-stream.
- MAX_REQUEST_BYTES 1MB → 10MB; pass client_max_size to aiohttp Application to
avoid silent 400s on truncated request bodies for long conversations.
Salvage of #17552 (api_server portion only). The contrib/openwebui-filter/
payload from that PR — Open WebUI Filter Function + benchmark writeup — is
a client-side user-installable add-on and doesn't need to live in the repo;
dropped here. Closes#17537.

The dispatch_once function already accepts a max_spawn parameter but the
gateway was calling it without passing any value, effectively ignoring
the configuration. This change reads kanban.max_spawn from config.yaml
and passes it through, allowing users to limit concurrent kanban tasks.
This prevents resource exhaustion scenarios where kanban dispatcher
spawns too many parallel workers on constrained hardware.
Salvage of #11350. Kept:
- Code: add an explicit /voice join Choice in the slash UI (runner accepts both 'join' and 'channel' but only 'channel' was in autocomplete).
- Docs: Server Members Intent is conditional (only needed if DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS contains usernames); SSRC → user_id mapping uses the voice websocket SPEAKING opcode, not the Members intent.
Dropped from the original PR:
- HERMES_DISCORD_VOICE_PACKET_DUMP — this env var doesn't exist on main (it was in a different PR that isn't merged).
- DISCORD_PROXY docs — already documented on current main.
- DISCORD_ALLOW_MENTION_* docs — already on main.
- "barge-in mode" rewrite — current main actually does pause the listener during TTS (VoiceReceiver.pause() at discord.py:192); there is no barge_in_guard/barge_in_rms on main.

Mirror _message_thread_id_for_typing() with _message_thread_id_for_send():
both now map the General forum topic (thread id "1") to None upfront.
That removes the need for the retry-without-thread fallback in send_typing()
entirely — if _message_thread_id_for_typing() returns a non-None value, it's
a real user-created topic and falling back to the root chat is never correct.
If Telegram rejects the typing action (e.g. topic deleted mid-session), we
swallow it at debug level instead of bleeding the indicator into All Messages.
Updates the General-topic typing regression test to assert the new single-call
contract.
Fix three regressions introduced by PR #18370 (lazy session creation):
1. _finalize_session() uses stale session_key after compression (#20001)
2. session_key not synced after auto-compression in run_conversation (#20001)
3. pending_title ValueError leaves title wedged forever (#19029)
4. Gateway silently swallows null responses when agent did work (#18765)
5. One-time cleanup for accumulated ghost compression continuations (#20001)
Changes:
- tui_gateway/server.py: _finalize_session() now uses agent.session_id
(falls back to session_key when agent is None). Refactor
_sync_session_key_after_compress() with clear_pending_title and
restart_slash_worker policy flags. Call it post-run_conversation()
to sync session_key after auto-compression. Add ValueError handler
to pending_title flush.
- gateway/run.py: Extract _normalize_empty_agent_response() helper that
consolidates failed/partial/null response handling. Surfaces user-facing
error when agent did work (api_calls > 0) but returned no text.
- hermes_state.py: Add finalize_orphaned_compression_sessions() — marks
ghost continuation sessions as ended (non-destructive, preserves data).
- cli.py: One-time startup migration for orphaned compression sessions.
Test changes:
- tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py: Update pending_title ValueError test
for post-#18370 architecture (title applied post-message, not at create).
- tests/test_lazy_session_regressions.py: 14 new regression tests covering
all fixed paths.
The Telegram/Discord /model pickers currently call
list_authenticated_providers(), which returns every provider whose
credentials resolve locally and every model in its curated snapshot.
Two failure modes fall out:
- OpenRouter rows can include IDs the live catalog no longer carries.
- Provider rows can surface with zero callable models (e.g. a slug
whose credential pool entry exists but has nothing behind it).
list_picker_providers() wraps the base function and post-processes the
result so the interactive picker only shows models the user can
actually select:
- OpenRouter's models come from fetch_openrouter_models() (live-catalog
filtered against the curated OPENROUTER_MODELS snapshot).
- Rows with an empty models list are dropped, except custom endpoints
(is_user_defined=True with an api_url) where the user may enter
model ids manually.
- All other fields pass through unchanged.
The gateway /model handler switches to the new helper for the
interactive picker payload only. Typed /model <name> and the text
fallback list stay on list_authenticated_providers() so nothing is
hidden from power users or platforms without a picker.
Covered by nine focused unit tests in
tests/hermes_cli/test_list_picker_providers.py.

Salvages @Es1la's PR #13632 — a non-numeric timestamp in the persisted
feishu dedup state crashed adapter startup with ValueError/TypeError
from the unguarded float() call. Wrap the float() conversion in
try/except; skip the bad key and keep loading the rest.
The original PR also restructured existing TestDedupTTL tests to use
tempfile.TemporaryDirectory + HERMES_HOME patching — that was
test-hygiene scope creep unrelated to the bug. Kept only the
malformed-timestamp fix and added a focused regression test.
Feishu post-type 'md' elements do not render markdown tables.
When table content is sent as post (triggered by **bold** matching
_MARKDOWN_HINT_RE), the message appears blank on the client.
Add _MARKDOWN_TABLE_RE to detect markdown table syntax and force
text mode for table content, ensuring it is visible as plain text.
After PR #13725 replaced the module-level _LOCK_DIR/_LOCK_FILE constants
with a dynamic _get_lock_paths() helper, the xdist-isolation fixture
needs to patch the function instead of the removed constants.
- scheduler.py: Replace static _hermes_home with dynamic _get_hermes_home() function
to support profile switching at runtime (HERMES_HOME override)
- scheduler.py: Replace static _LOCK_DIR/_LOCK_FILE with _get_lock_paths() function
for profile-aware lock path resolution
- feishu.py: Add receive_id_type detection (oc_/ou_ -> open_id, else chat_id)
to fix Feishu API '[230001] ext=invalid receive_id' error for user DMs

and then kick off a graceful restart. This is unwanted behaviour:
users who run a long-lived gateway and do their own ad-hoc git
operations on the checkout end up with their chat interrupted and
the current message dropped every time HEAD moves, with no way to
opt out.
If an operator really needs the old protection against stale
sys.modules after "hermes update", the SIGKILL-survivor sweep in
hermes update (hermes_cli/main.py, also tagged #17648) already
handles the supervisor-respawn case on its own.

* feat(i18n): add display.language for static message translation (zh/ja/de/es)
Adds a thin-slice i18n layer covering the highest-impact static user-facing
messages: the CLI dangerous-command approval prompt and a handful of gateway
slash-command replies (restart-drain, goal cleared, approval expired, config
read/save errors).
Out of scope (stays English): agent responses, log lines, tool outputs,
slash-command descriptions, error tracebacks.
Infrastructure:
- agent/i18n.py: catalog loader, t() helper, language resolution
(HERMES_LANGUAGE env var > display.language config > en)
- locales/{en,zh,ja,de,es}.yaml: ~19 translated strings per language
- display.language in DEFAULT_CONFIG (hermes_cli/config.py)
Tests:
- tests/agent/test_i18n.py: 21 tests covering catalog parity, placeholder
parity across locales, fallback behavior, env-var override, alias
normalization, missing-key graceful degradation.
Docs:
- website/docs/user-guide/configuration.md: display.language entry plus a
short section explaining scope so users don't expect agent responses to
translate via this knob.
Widens @Krionex's PR #16933 fix to cover the second bug class at the sibling
site. natural mode used to pass env values through int() before the PR
caught mis-typed values crashing the gateway; custom mode had the exact
same bug one branch away (HERMES_HUMAN_DELAY_MIN_MS=oops in custom mode
still crashed). Same try/except/fallback pattern, scoped to the two
int() calls that feed random.uniform().
When context compression rotates the agent's session_id to a new
child session, the API server was still returning the stale parent
session_id in the X-Hermes-Session-Id response header.
This caused external clients to keep sending the old session_id,
loading uncompressed parent history instead of the compressed
continuation.
Fix: _run_agent() now includes the effective session_id in its
result dict, and the response header uses it instead of the
original provided session_id.
* feat(api-server): X-Hermes-Session-Key header for long-term memory scoping
API Server integrations (Open WebUI, custom web UIs) can now pass a stable
per-channel identifier via X-Hermes-Session-Key that scopes long-term memory
(Honcho, etc.) independently of the transcript-scoped X-Hermes-Session-Id.
This matches the native gateway's session_key / session_id split: one stable
key per assistant channel, many independent transcripts that rotate on /new.
- _create_agent and _run_agent accept gateway_session_key and pass it to
AIAgent(gateway_session_key=...), which is already honored by the Honcho
memory provider (plugins/memory/honcho/client.py resolve_session_name).
- New shared helper _parse_session_key_header applies the same API-key
gate, control-character sanitization, and a 256-char length cap as the
existing session-id header.
- All three agent endpoints honor the header: /v1/chat/completions,
/v1/responses, /v1/runs. JSON and SSE responses echo it back.
- /v1/capabilities advertises session_key_header so clients can
feature-detect.

WeCom doesn't pad base64 aeskey, causing Python strict mode decode failure
on media/image/file messages. Add automatic padding before base64 decode:
aes_key + '=' * ((4 - len(aes_key) % 4) % 4).
Salvages the AES padding fix from @chengoak's PR #17040. The SSRF whitelist
entry for a private COS bucket hostname was dropped as it belongs in user
config, not the built-in trusted-private-IP-hosts list. The debug-level
full-body info log was dropped to avoid logging potentially sensitive
message content at INFO level.
The YAML-to-env-var bridge in load_gateway_config() mapped every Discord
and Telegram config key (require_mention, auto_thread, reactions, etc.)
except reply_to_mode. Users setting discord.reply_to_mode or
telegram.reply_to_mode in ~/.hermes/config.yaml got no effect — the
adapter only read the env var, which nothing populated from YAML.
Add the missing bridge for both platforms, following the existing pattern.
Top-level <platform>.reply_to_mode preferred, falls back to
<platform>.extra.reply_to_mode, env var never overwritten. Handles YAML
1.1 bare `off` → Python False coercion.
This is a re-submission of the work from #9837 and #13930, which both

discover_fallback_ips() filtered out any DoH-resolved IP that also appeared
in the system resolver's answer set, on the assumption that the system IP
was unreachable. When DoH and system DNS agreed (a common case), the
function returned the hardcoded _SEED_FALLBACK_IPS list instead — and on
networks where those seed addresses are not routable, the Telegram fallback
transport had nothing usable to retry against and polling failed.
Drop the system_ips exclusion so DoH-confirmed IPs are preserved regardless
of system DNS overlap. The TelegramFallbackTransport already tries the
primary path first via system DNS, then falls through to the IP-rewrite
path on connect failure; including the same IP in both lanes lets a
transient primary failure recover via the explicit IP route instead of
escalating to seed addresses.
Update the two tests that codified the old exclusion to reflect the new,
inclusion-by-default behaviour.

* fix(agent): stateful streaming scrubber for reasoning-block leaks (#17924)
Per-delta _strip_think_blocks ran at _fire_stream_delta and destroyed
downstream state. When MiniMax-M2.7 / DeepSeek / Qwen3 streamed a tag
split across deltas (delta1='<think>', delta2='Let me check'), the
regex case-2 match erased delta1 entirely, so CLI/gateway state
machines never learned a block was open and leaked delta2 as content.
Raw consumers (ACP, api_server, TTS) had no downstream defense at all.
Replace the per-delta regex with a stateful StreamingThinkScrubber
that survives delta boundaries:
- Closed <tag>X</tag> pairs always stripped (matches _strip_think_blocks
case 1).
- Unterminated open at block boundary enters a block; content
discarded until close tag arrives. At end-of-stream, held
content is dropped.
- Orphan close tags stripped without boundary gating.
- Partial tags at delta boundaries held back until resolved.
- Block-boundary rule (start-of-stream, after \n, or
whitespace-only since last \n) preserves prose that mentions
tag names.
Reset at turn start alongside the existing context scrubber; flush at
turn end so a benign '<' held back at end-of-stream reaches the UI.
E2E-verified on live OpenRouter->MiniMax-m2 streams: closed pairs
strip cleanly, first word of post-block content is preserved, pure
content passes through unchanged. Stefan's screenshot case (#17924)
— 'Let me check' getting chopped to ' me check' — no longer happens.
Final _strip_think_blocks calls on completed strings (final_response,
replay, compression) are preserved; only the streaming per-delta call
site switched to the scrubber.
After PR #20105 (dispatcher skips ready tasks whose assignee fails
``profile_exists()`` to prevent the orion-cc/orion-research crash
loop), the gateway and CLI emit a spurious "kanban dispatcher stuck:
ready queue non-empty for N consecutive ticks but 0 workers spawned"
warning every 5 minutes on multi-lane setups where the queue is
steadily full of human-pulled work assigned to terminal lanes.
The warn is intended to catch real failure modes (broken PATH,
missing venv, credential loss for a real Hermes profile). On a
multi-lane host it fires forever even though everything is healthy:
the dispatcher correctly chose not to spawn, and there is nothing
for the operator to fix.
Changes:
* ``DispatchResult`` gains a ``skipped_nonspawnable`` field
(separate from ``skipped_unassigned``) so callers can distinguish
"task missing an owner — operator should route it" from "task
owned by a control-plane lane — terminal will pull it".
* ``dispatch_once`` routes the ``not profile_exists(assignee)`` skip
into the new bucket (was lumped into ``skipped_unassigned``).
* New helper ``has_spawnable_ready(conn)`` returns True iff at least
one ready+assigned+unclaimed task in the DB has an assignee that
maps to a real Hermes profile. Falls back to legacy "any
ready+assigned" when ``profile_exists`` is unimportable so degraded
installs still surface the original warn.
* The gateway dispatcher (``gateway/run.py``) and the CLI standalone
daemon (``hermes_cli/kanban.py``) both swap their cheap
``ready_nonempty`` probe to use ``has_spawnable_ready``. Stuck-warn
now fires only when there is genuine spawnable work the dispatcher
failed to start.
* CLI dispatch output prints ``Skipped (non-spawnable assignee —
terminal lane, OK)`` for visibility without alarm.
Tests:
* New ``has_spawnable_ready`` cases (empty queue, terminal-lane
only, mixed real+terminal).
* New ``test_dispatch_skips_nonspawnable_into_separate_bucket``
verifies the bucketing change.
* Updated ``test_dispatch_skips_unassigned`` to assert no
cross-leak.
* Added ``all_assignees_spawnable`` fixture in
``tests/hermes_cli/conftest.py`` and threaded it through dispatcher
tests that use synthetic assignees ("alice", "bob"). PR #20105
(the parent commit) silently broke 8 such tests by routing those
assignees into ``skipped_nonspawnable`` instead of spawning; this
PR repairs them as part of the same code area.
Verified locally: 246/246 kanban-suite tests pass.

Add EMAIL_ALLOWED_USERS check in EmailAdapter._dispatch_message()
to silently discard emails from senders not in the allowlist. This
prevents the adapter from creating thread context and dispatching a
MessageEvent for unauthorized senders, which could race with the
gateway authorization check and result in SMTP replies being sent
despite the handler returning None.
Test: tests/gateway/test_email.py::TestDispatchMessage::test_non_allowlisted_sender_dropped
Test: tests/gateway/test_email.py::TestDispatchMessage::test_allowlisted_sender_proceeds
Test: tests/gateway/test_email.py::TestDispatchMessage::test_empty_allowlist_allows_all
The stale-code self-check (Issue #17648) used sentinel-file mtimes to
decide whether the gateway survived a `hermes update` with stale
`sys.modules`. That signal false-positives on any write to the
sentinel files — including agent-driven edits during Hermes-on-Hermes
dev sessions. Telling the agent to patch `run_agent.py` would flip
the check to True on the next user message and force a gateway
restart even though no update happened.
Switch the signal to `git rev-parse HEAD`. Agent file edits don't
move HEAD; `hermes update` (git pull) always does. Reading .git/HEAD
directly (no subprocess) with a 5s cache keeps the overhead negligible
on bursty chats. Non-git installs short-circuit to False — the
stale-modules class can't occur without a git-backed update path, so
there's nothing to detect.
The legacy `_compute_repo_mtime` helper is kept but unused by
detection, reserved as a fallback hook for future pip-install update
paths.
- _read_git_head_sha(): resolves HEAD across main checkout, worktree
(follows `gitdir:` + `commondir` pointers), and packed-refs layouts.
- _current_git_sha_cached(): per-runner 5s SHA cache.
- _detect_stale_code(): boot SHA vs current SHA, returns False when
either is unavailable.
- Tests cover all four layouts, the agent-edits-don't-trigger
regression, and cache behavior.
Refs #17648.
Four production-readiness additions to topic mode:
1. /topic off — clean disable path. Flips telegram_dm_topic_mode.enabled
to 0 and clears telegram_dm_topic_bindings for this chat. Previously
users had to edit state.db with sqlite3 to turn the feature off.
Idempotent: calling /topic off when the chat was never enabled
returns a friendly no-op message.
2. /topic help — inline usage printed in the DM so users don't have to
visit docs to discover /topic off, /topic <session-id>, etc.
3. Authorization gate. /topic mutates SQLite side tables and flips the
root DM into a lobby, so the action must be authorized. Now calls
self._is_user_authorized(source); unauthorized DMs get a refusal
instead of activation. Defense in depth on top of the gateway's
existing pre-route auth.
4. BotFather screenshot debounce. A user repeatedly running /topic
while Threads Settings is still disabled would previously re-upload
the same screenshot every time. Now rate-limited to one send per
5 minutes per chat. /topic off resets the counter so re-enabling
starts fresh.
Command-def args hint updated: /topic [off|help|session-id].
Docs:
- New /topic subcommands table at the top of the multi-session section
- Disable instructions updated to recommend /topic off first, with the
raw SQL fallback kept for bulk cleanup
- Under-the-hood list extended with the capability-hint debounce and
the authorization gate
Tests (6 new):
- /topic help returns usage and doesn't create topic tables
- /topic off disables mode AND clears bindings
- /topic off is idempotent when never enabled
- Unauthorized users get refusal, no tables created
- Capability-hint debounce is per-chat
- /topic off resets both lobby and capability debounce counters
All 402 targeted tests pass. Full gateway sweep: 4809/4810
(pre-existing test_teams::test_send_typing unrelated).
Five follow-ups to topic mode based on integration audit:
1. ON DELETE CASCADE on telegram_dm_topic_bindings.session_id. Session
pruning (manual /delete, auto-cleanup, any future prune job) would
have thrown 'FOREIGN KEY constraint failed' for sessions bound to a
topic. Migration bumped to v2, rebuilds the bindings table in place
if FK lacks CASCADE. Idempotent; only runs once per DB.
2. Never auto-rename operator-declared topics. If an operator has
extra.dm_topics configured AND a user runs /topic, messages in those
pre-declared topics would previously trigger auto-rename and silently
mutate operator config. _rename_telegram_topic_for_session_title now
early-returns when _get_dm_topic_info returns a dict for this
(chat_id, thread_id). Uses class-based lookup (not hasattr) so
MagicMock test fixtures don't accidentally trip the guard.
3. General topic handling. Telegram's General (pinned top) topic in a
forum-enabled private chat may send messages with message_thread_id=1
or omit thread_id entirely depending on client. Both are now treated
as the root lobby, not a topic lane. Prevents users from
accidentally burning a session on the General topic.
4. Debounce the root-lobby reminder. 30-second cooldown per chat so a
user who forgets topic mode is enabled and types ten messages in the
root gets one reminder, not ten. Explicit command replies
(/new-in-lobby, /topic <session-id>) still land every time.
5. Docs: added under-the-hood invariants for the above, plus a
Downgrade section explaining that rolling back to a pre-/topic
Hermes build leaves the DB tables orphaned but harmless — DMs just
revert to native per-thread isolation.
Tests:
- test_operator_declared_topic_is_not_auto_renamed
- test_general_topic_is_treated_as_root_lobby
- test_lobby_reminder_is_debounced_per_chat
- test_binding_survives_session_deletion_via_cascade
- test_migration_rebuilds_v1_binding_table_with_cascade_fk
Validated: 4803/4804 tests pass (tests/gateway/ + tests/test_hermes_state.py).
Sole failure is a pre-existing test_teams::test_send_typing flake
unrelated to this PR.
Follow-up on @EmelyanenkoK's feat: add Telegram DM topic-mode sessions.
Three issues:
1. Split-brain session state. After get_or_create_session() returned a
SessionEntry for a topic lane, the handler was mutating
.session_id in place to the binding's target, but never persisting
the switch through SessionStore. The sessions.json session_key →
session_id map kept pointing at the lane's natural id; any reader
that reloaded from disk saw the wrong id. Fixed by routing through
SessionStore.switch_session(), which _save()s the mapping and ends
the old session in SQLite like /resume does.
2. /new inside a topic was a one-message no-op. Reset created a new
session but left the telegram_dm_topic_bindings row pointing at the
old session_id, so the next message's binding lookup switched right
back. Now _handle_reset_command rebinds the topic to the new
session_id after reset.
3. is_telegram_session_linked_to_topic and
list_unlinked_telegram_sessions_for_user both called
apply_telegram_topic_migration() on read, contradicting the PR's
own invariant that migration only runs on explicit /topic opt-in.
They now tolerate missing topic tables and return empty/False.
Also: _telegram_topic_mode_enabled() now only treats True as enabled
(not any truthy return), so test fixtures with MagicMock session_db
don't accidentally flip every DM into lobby mode — this was breaking
4 pre-existing test_status_command tests.
Tests:
- New regression: /new inside a topic must update the binding row
(test_new_inside_telegram_topic_rewrites_binding_to_new_session).
- _make_runner now stubs switch_session so existing restore tests
still exercise the new code path.
Validated end-to-end with real SessionDB + SessionStore:
readers on fresh DB don't create topic tables; enable creates them;
binding override persists across SessionStore restart; /new rebinds
and the new id survives a restart.

Prevents pre-existing TWILIO_PHONE_NUMBER or SMS_WEBHOOK_URL values in
the outer test environment from leaking into the assertion context.

Broadens the existing fallback (previously only fired for
Photo_invalid_dimensions) to cover every send_photo exception class:
rate limits, corrupt file markers, format edge cases. The expected
dimension case still logs at INFO (document is the right path); all
other cases log at WARNING with exc_info so they're visible in logs.
If send_document itself fails, we still fall back to the base adapter's
text-only 'Image: /path' rendering as a last resort.
Salvage of #15837 — original PR author QifengKuang proposed the broader
try/except-style fallback. Adapted to keep the existing INFO-vs-WARNING
log split for dimension errors (the expected case).

When run_conversation encounters a non-retryable client error (401, 400,
etc.), it returns a dict with failed=True instead of raising. The gateway's
_run_and_close only branched on exceptions, so it always emitted run.completed
even for failed runs — clients could not distinguish success from failure.
Inspect the result dict before emitting: if failed=True, emit run.failed
with the error message; otherwise emit run.completed as before. The existing
except Exception path is unchanged for genuine programming errors.
Fixes#15561
Adds first-class board support to kanban so users can separate unrelated
streams of work (projects, repos, domains) into isolated queues. Single-
project users stay on the 'default' board and see no UI change.
Isolation model
---------------
- Each board is a directory at `~/.hermes/kanban/boards/<slug>/` with
its own `kanban.db`, `workspaces/`, and `logs/`. The 'default' board
keeps its legacy path (`~/.hermes/kanban.db`) for back-compat — fresh
installs and pre-boards users get zero migration.
- Workers spawned by the dispatcher have `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` pinned in
their env alongside the existing `HERMES_KANBAN_DB` /
`HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACES_ROOT` pins, so workers physically cannot see
other boards' tasks.
- The gateway's single dispatcher loop now sweeps every board per tick;
per-tick cost is a few extra filesystem stats.
- CAS concurrency guarantees are preserved per-board (each board is its
own SQLite DB, same WAL+IMMEDIATE machinery as before).
CLI
---
hermes kanban boards list|create|switch|show|rename|rm
hermes kanban --board <slug> <any-subcommand>
Board resolution order: `--board` flag → `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` env →
`~/.hermes/kanban/current` file → `default`. Slug validation is strict:
lowercase alphanumerics + hyphens + underscores, 1-64 chars, starts with
alphanumeric. Uppercase is auto-downcased; slashes / dots / `..` /
control chars are rejected so boards can't name their way out of the
boards/ directory.
Passive discoverability: when more than one board exists, `hermes kanban
list` prints a one-line header ("Board: foo (2 other boards …)") so
users who stumble across multi-project never have to hunt for the
feature. Invisible for single-board installs.
Dashboard
---------
- New `BoardSwitcher` component at the top of the Kanban tab: dropdown
with all boards + task counts, `+ New board` button, `Archive`
button (non-default only). Hidden entirely when only `default` exists
and is empty — single-project users never see it.
- New `NewBoardDialog` modal: slug / display name / description / icon
+ "switch to this board after creating" checkbox.
- Selected board persists to `localStorage` so browser users don't
shift the CLI's active board out from under a terminal they left open.
- New `?board=<slug>` query param on every existing endpoint plus a
new `/boards` CRUD surface (`GET /boards`, `POST /boards`,
`PATCH /boards/<slug>`, `DELETE /boards/<slug>`,
`POST /boards/<slug>/switch`).
- Events WebSocket is pinned to a board at connection time; switching
opens a fresh WS against the new board.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug in the plugin's tenant / assignee
filters: the SDK's `Select` uses `onValueChange(value)`, not
native `onChange(event)`, so those filters silently didn't work.
New `selectChangeHandler` helper wires both signatures.
Tests
-----
49 new tests in `tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_boards.py` covering:
slug validation (valid / invalid / auto-downcase), path resolution
(default = legacy path, named = `boards/<slug>/`, env var override),
current-board resolution chain (env > file > default), board CRUD +
archive / hard-delete, per-board connection isolation (tasks don't
leak), worker spawn env injection (`HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD`,
`HERMES_KANBAN_DB`, `HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACES_ROOT` all point at the
right board), and end-to-end CLI surface.
Regression surface: all 264 pre-existing kanban tests continue to pass.
Live-tested via the dashboard: created 3 boards (default,
hermes-agent, atm10-server), created tasks on each via both CLI
(`--board <slug> create`) and dashboard (inline create on the Ready
column), confirmed zero cross-board leakage, confirmed `BoardSwitcher`
+ `NewBoardDialog` work end-to-end in the browser.
The contributor's PR silently swallowed ValueError from
SessionDB.set_session_title() with bare except Exception: pass.
Users typing /new <title> with an already-in-use title got an
untitled session and no feedback.
Changes:
- cli.py: catch ValueError from both sanitize_title() and
set_session_title(); print the error and mark the session
untitled in the banner (never echo the rejected title back).
- gateway/run.py: append a warning note to the reset reply on
title rejection; reflect the accepted title in the header.
- Add regression tests for the duplicate-title path in CLI and
gateway.
Also map exx@example.com -> @exxmen in scripts/release.py.
Allow users to start a fresh session and immediately set its title by
passing a name to /new (or /reset):
/new Refactor auth module
Changes:
- hermes_cli/commands.py: add args_hint='[name]' to /new command
- cli.py: parse title argument in process_command(), pass to new_session()
- cli.py: new_session() accepts title=None, sets title via SessionDB
- gateway/run.py: _handle_reset_command() parses title, sets on new entry
- gateway/session.py: reset_session() accepts optional display_name
- tests: add test_new_session_with_title, test_reset_command_with_title,
test_new_command_in_help_output
All 36 affected tests pass.
Telegram's send_photo has dimension limits (sum of width+height <= 10000px).
When sending large screenshots or tall images, the API returns
'Photo_invalid_dimensions' error.
Fix: Catch this specific error in send_image_file() and automatically
fallback to send_document() which has no dimension limits (only 50MB size).
This is similar to the existing 5MB URL fallback (commit 542faf22) but
handles local files with dimension issues instead of URL size issues.
When DISCORD_IGNORE_NO_MENTION is true (default), the bot ignores
messages without @mention. However, this check ran before evaluating
free_response_channels, so messages in free-response channels were
wrongly dropped unless they contained a mention.
This change adds a carve-out: if the message lands in a channel that
is configured as a free response channel (or its parent category is),
the ignore-no-mention rule is skipped.
Also removes the unconditional skip_thread for free response channels
so that auto_thread still creates threads there unless explicitly
disabled via DISCORD_NO_THREAD_CHANNELS.
Quick commands of type "alias" that target built-in slash commands
(e.g. /h -> /model) were processed too late in _handle_message — after
the if-canonical=="model" checks. This meant alias expansion never
reached the target handler and fell through to the LLM as raw text.
Two fixes:
1. Move the quick_commands block before built-in dispatch so alias
targets (like /model) hit the correct handler after expansion.
2. Extract bare command name from target_command via .split()[0] to
feed _resolve_cmd() correctly (was using the full arg-string).
The on_processing_start hook fired a reaction emoji (👀) on every
inbound Signal message before run.py's _is_user_authorized check.
This meant contacts not in SIGNAL_ALLOWED_USERS would see the bot
react to their messages even though Hermes silently dropped them —
leaking the presence of the bot and causing confusing UX.
Two changes to gateway/platforms/signal.py:
1. Read SIGNAL_ALLOWED_USERS into self.dm_allow_from in __init__
(mirrors the group_allow_from pattern already in place).
2. Add _reactions_enabled(event) — two-gate check:
- SIGNAL_REACTIONS=false/0/no disables reactions globally
- If SIGNAL_ALLOWED_USERS is set, only react to senders in
the allowlist (skips unauthorized contacts)
Both on_processing_start and on_processing_complete now call this
guard before sending any reaction.
Telegram already has an equivalent _reactions_enabled() guard
(controlled by TELEGRAM_REACTIONS). This brings Signal to parity.
The old CWD heuristic was fooled by:
1. TERMINAL_CWD persisted to .env by `hermes config set terminal.cwd`
2. Inherited TERMINAL_CWD from parent hermes processes
3. Only resolved when config had a placeholder value (not explicit paths)
Fix:
- load_cli_config() unconditionally uses os.getcwd() for local backend
- TERMINAL_CWD always force-exported in CLI mode (overrides stale values)
- Gateway sets _HERMES_GATEWAY=1 marker so lazy cli.py imports don't clobber
- Remove terminal.cwd from config-set .env sync map (prevents re-poisoning)
- Clarify setup wizard label as 'Gateway working directory'
Closes#19214
Users commonly place `require_mention: true` at the top level of
config.yaml alongside `group_sessions_per_user`, expecting it to gate
Telegram group messages. The key was silently ignored because the
config loader only checked `yaml_cfg["telegram"]["require_mention"]`.
When `require_mention` is found at the top level and no telegram-specific
value is set, the fix now:
- adds it to platforms_data["telegram"]["extra"] so _telegram_require_mention()
picks it up via the primary config.extra path
- sets TELEGRAM_REQUIRE_MENTION env var for the secondary fallback path
A telegram-specific value (telegram.require_mention) still takes
precedence over the top-level shorthand.
Also corrects telegram.md: bare /cmd without @botname is rejected when
require_mention is enabled; only /cmd@botname (bot-menu form) passes.
Fixes#3979
Deduplicate exact and near-exact Discord voice STT transcripts per guild/user over a short window to avoid duplicate delayed agent replies.
Adds regression tests for exact and near-duplicate voice transcript suppression.
/goal was silently broken outside the classic CLI.
TUI: /goal was routed through the HermesCLI slash-worker subprocess,
which set the goal row in SessionDB but then called
_pending_input.put(state.goal) — the subprocess has no reader for that
queue, so the kickoff message was discarded. No post-turn judge was
wired into prompt.submit either, so even a manual kickoff would not
continue the goal loop. Intercept /goal in command.dispatch instead,
drive GoalManager directly, and return {type: send, notice, message}
so the TUI client renders the Goal-set notice and fires the kickoff.
Run the judge in _run_prompt_submit after message.complete, surface
the verdict via status.update {kind: goal}, and chain the continuation
turn after the running guard is released.
Gateway: _post_turn_goal_continuation was gated on
hasattr(adapter, 'send_message'), but adapters only expose send().
That branch was dead on every platform — users never saw
'✓ Goal achieved', 'Continuing toward goal', or budget-exhausted
messages. Replace the dead call with adapter.send(chat_id, content,
metadata) and drop a broken reference to self._loop.
Tests:
- tests/tui_gateway/test_goal_command.py — full /goal dispatch matrix
(set / status / pause / resume / clear / stop / done / whitespace)
plus regressions for slash.exec → 4018 and 'goal' staying in
_PENDING_INPUT_COMMANDS.
- tests/gateway/test_goal_verdict_send.py — locks in the adapter.send
path for done / continue / budget-exhausted and verifies the hook
no-ops when no goal is set or the adapter lacks send().
When /new is issued while an agent is actively processing, the confirmation response was never sent to the user because cancel_session_processing() was called before _send_with_retry(). Task cancellation side effects could silently drop the response.
Fix: reorder to send the response BEFORE cancelling the old task. Add logging at the send point (matching the pattern at line 2800 in _process_message_background) so future failures are visible.
Closes: #18912
suspend_recently_active() was unconditionally setting suspended=True on
startup, causing get_or_create_session() to wipe conversation history on
every restart. Change to set resume_pending=True instead, so sessions
auto-resume while still allowing stuck-loop escalation after 3 failures.
SlackAdapter.connect() overwrote self._handler, self._app, and
self._socket_mode_task without closing the prior AsyncSocketModeHandler
first. If connect() was called a second time on the same adapter (e.g.
during a gateway restart or in-process reconnect attempt), the old Socket
Mode websocket stayed alive. Both the old and new connections received
every Slack event and dispatched it twice — producing double responses
with different wording, the same bug that affected DiscordAdapter (#18187,
fixed in #18758).
Fix: add a close-before-reassign guard at the start of the connection
setup path, mirroring the guard DiscordAdapter.connect() already has.
When self._handler is None (fresh adapter, first connect()) the block is
a harmless no-op. Scoped to the handler/app fields only — no behavior
change for any path that does not call connect() twice.
Fixes#18980
When send_message tool is called from inside a running gateway, the
_run_async bridge spawns a worker thread with a separate event loop.
send_weixin_direct then reuses the live adapter's aiohttp session
which was created on the gateway's main loop. aiohttp's TimerContext
checks asyncio.current_task(loop=session._loop) and sees None because
we're executing on the worker thread's loop → raises 'Timeout context
manager should be used inside a task'.
Fix: skip the live-adapter shortcut when the session belongs to a
different event loop, falling through to the fresh-session path.
Two mitigations for the CLOSE_WAIT accumulation reported against QQ Bot
+ Feishu on macOS behind Cloudflare Warp.
1. Shared httpx.Limits helper (gateway/platforms/_http_client_limits.py).
Every long-lived platform adapter now constructs httpx.AsyncClient
with max_keepalive_connections=10 and keepalive_expiry=2.0, vs httpx's
default of unbounded keepalive pool and 5.0s expiry. On macOS/Warp the
default 5s window let idle keepalive sockets sit in CLOSE_WAIT long
enough for seven persistent adapters (QQ Bot, WeCom, DingTalk, Signal,
BlueBubbles, WeCom-callback, plus the transient Feishu helper) to
compound to the 256-fd ulimit. Tunable via
HERMES_GATEWAY_HTTPX_KEEPALIVE_EXPIRY and
HERMES_GATEWAY_HTTPX_MAX_KEEPALIVE env vars.
2. whatsapp.send_typing aiohttp leak. The call was
'await self._http_session.post(...)' with no 'async with' and no
variable capture — the ClientResponse went out of scope unclosed,
holding its TCP socket in CLOSE_WAIT until GC. Fixed by wrapping in
'async with'. This was the only bare-await aiohttp leak in the
gateway/tools/plugins tree per audit; all other aiohttp sites use
the context-manager pattern correctly.
The underlying reporter also saw Feishu SDK (lark-oapi) connections in
CLOSE_WAIT — those are inside the SDK and out of our direct control, but
tightening httpx keepalive across adapters reduces the aggregate pool
pressure regardless of which individual adapter leaks.
Snapshot Content-Type and body while the client context is still
active so pooled connections fully release on exit. Previously the
read happened after `async with httpx.AsyncClient(...)` returned —
which works today only because httpx eagerly buffers non-streaming
responses; a future refactor to `.stream()` would silently read-
after-close.
Part of the #18451 connection-hygiene audit. Salvage of #18502.
* fix(gateway): config.yaml wins over .env for agent/display/timezone settings
Regression from the silent config→env bridge. The bridge at module import
time is correct for max_turns (unconditional overwrite), but every other
agent.*, display.*, timezone, and security bridge key was guarded by
'if X not in os.environ' — so a stale .env entry from an old 'hermes setup'
run would shadow the user's current config.yaml indefinitely.
Symptom: agent.max_turns: 500 in config.yaml, HERMES_MAX_ITERATIONS=60
in .env from an old setup, and the gateway silently capped at 60
iterations per turn. Gateway logs confirmed api_calls never exceeded 60.
Three changes:
1. gateway/run.py: drop the 'not in os.environ' guards for all agent.*,
display.*, timezone, and security.* bridge keys. config.yaml is now
authoritative for these settings — same semantics already in place
for max_turns, terminal.*, and auxiliary.*. Also surface the bridge
failure (previously 'except Exception: pass') to stderr so operators
see bridge errors instead of silently falling back to .env.
2. gateway/run.py: INFO-log the resolved max_iterations at gateway
start so operators can verify the config→env bridge did the right
thing instead of chasing a phantom budget ceiling.
3. hermes_cli/setup.py: stop writing HERMES_MAX_ITERATIONS to .env in
the setup wizard. config.yaml is the single source of truth. Also
clean up any stale .env entry left behind by pre-fix setups.
Regression tests in tests/gateway/test_config_env_bridge_authority.py
guard each config→env key against the 'stale .env shadows config' bug.
* fix(gateway): shutdown + restart hygiene (drain timeout, false-fatal, success log)
Three issues observed in production gateway.log during a rapid restart
chain on 2026-05-02, all fixed here.
1. _send_restart_notification logged unconditional success
adapter.send() catches provider errors (e.g. Telegram 'Chat not found')
and returns SendResult(success=False); it never raises. The caller
ignored the return value and always logged 'Sent restart notification
to <chat>' at INFO, producing a misleading success line directly
below the 'Failed to send Telegram message' traceback on every boot.
Now inspects result.success and logs WARNING with the error otherwise.
2. WhatsApp bridge SIGTERM on shutdown classified as fatal error
_check_managed_bridge_exit() saw the bridge's returncode -15 (our own
SIGTERM from disconnect()) and fired the full fatal-error path,
producing 'ERROR ... WhatsApp bridge process exited unexpectedly' plus
'Fatal whatsapp adapter error (whatsapp_bridge_exited)' on every
planned shutdown, immediately before the normal '✓ whatsapp
disconnected'. Adds a _shutting_down flag that disconnect() sets
before the terminate, and _check_managed_bridge_exit() returns None
for returncode in {0, -2, -15} while shutting down. OOM-kill (137)
and other non-signal exits still hit the fatal path.
3. restart_drain_timeout default 60s → 180s
On 2026-05-02 01:43:27 a user /restart fired while three agents were
mid-API-call (82s, 112s, 154s into their turns). The 60s drain budget
expired and all three were force-interrupted. 180s covers realistic
in-flight agent turns; users on very-long-reasoning models can still
raise it further via agent.restart_drain_timeout in config.yaml.
Existing explicit user values are preserved by deep-merge.
Tests
- tests/gateway/test_restart_notification.py: two new tests assert INFO
is only logged on SendResult(success=True) and WARNING with the error
string is logged on SendResult(success=False).
- tests/gateway/test_whatsapp_connect.py: parametrized test for
returncode in {0, -2, -15} proves shutdown-time exits are suppressed;
separate test proves returncode 137 (SIGKILL/OOM) still surfaces as
fatal even when _shutting_down is set.
- _check_managed_bridge_exit() reads _shutting_down via getattr-with-
default so existing _make_adapter() test helpers that bypass __init__
(pitfall #17 in AGENTS.md) keep working unmodified.
When DiscordAdapter.connect() is called during reconnect, it creates a new
commands.Bot client without closing the previous one. The old client's
websocket remains connected to Discord's gateway, causing both to fire
on_message for every incoming event — resulting in double responses.
Fix: before creating a new Bot instance, check if a previous client exists
and close it. This ensures only one websocket connection is active at any
time.
Closes#18187
`_register_skill_group` captured the skill catalog in closure variables
(`entries` and `skill_lookup`) so the single `tree.add_command` call at
startup owned the only live copy. The closure is never re-entered after
startup, so `/reload-skills` — which rescans the on-disk skills dir and
refreshes the in-process `_skill_commands` registry — had no way to
propagate results into the `/skill` autocomplete on Discord. New skills
stayed invisible in the dropdown, and deleted skills returned
"Unknown skill" when the stale autocomplete entry was clicked.
The fix is purely a dataflow change: promote `entries` and `skill_lookup`
to instance attributes (`_skill_entries`, `_skill_lookup`), split the
collector-driven rebuild into a helper (`_refresh_skill_catalog_state`),
and add a public `refresh_skill_group()` method that re-runs the helper
and is safe to call at any point after the initial registration.
The gateway's `_handle_reload_skills_command` then iterates
`self.adapters` and calls `refresh_skill_group()` on any adapter that
exposes it (currently only Discord). Both sync and async implementations
are supported; adapters that don't override the method (Telegram's
BotCommand menu, Slack subcommand map, etc.) are silently skipped — the
in-process `reload_skills()` call covers them.
No `tree.sync()` is required because Discord fetches autocomplete
options dynamically on every keystroke — mutating the instance state the
callbacks already read from is sufficient. That sidesteps the per-app
command-bucket rate limit (~5 writes / 20 s) that made the previous
bulk-sync-on-reload approach unusable (#16713 context).
Tests: tests/gateway/test_reload_skills_discord_resync.py — five cases
covering (1) refresh replaces entries, (2) entries stay sorted after
refresh, (3) collector exception leaves cached state intact, (4)
`_refresh_skill_catalog_state` populates the instance attrs, (5)
orchestrator calls `refresh_skill_group()` on sync + async adapters and
skips adapters that don't expose it.
_check_unavailable_skill is meant to turn a typed "/foo" command that
doesn't resolve into a specific hint — "disabled, enable with hermes
skills config" or "available but not installed, install with hermes
skills install …" — instead of the generic "unknown command" reply.
It was doing the match with `skill_md.parent.name.lower().replace("_", "-")`,
comparing that to the typed command. For every skill whose directory name
drifted from its declared frontmatter `name:`, that comparison failed and
the user got the unhelpful generic path. On a standard install today 19
skills have this drift, e.g.:
dir: mlops/stable-diffusion
frontmatter: name: Stable Diffusion Image Generation
registered slug (what the user types): /stable-diffusion-image-generation
dir: mlops/qdrant
frontmatter: name: Qdrant Vector Search
registered slug: /qdrant-vector-search
dir: mlops/flash-attention
frontmatter: name: Optimizing Attention Flash
registered slug: /optimizing-attention-flash
In every case, _check_unavailable_skill would fall through because
"stable-diffusion" != "stable-diffusion-image-generation", even with the
skill sitting right there on disk.
Fix: extract a small `_skill_slug_from_frontmatter` helper that reads the
SKILL.md frontmatter and normalizes exactly like scan_skill_commands
(lower, spaces/underscores → hyphens, strip non-[a-z0-9-], collapse
runs of hyphens, strip edges). Use it in both the
disabled-skills branch and the optional-skills branch. The disabled-set
membership check now uses the declared frontmatter name (which is what
`hermes skills config` writes into skills.disabled / platform_disabled),
not the slug.
Tests: five cases in tests/gateway/test_unavailable_skill_hint.py —
the drift case for the disabled branch, unknown-command negative,
matched-but-not-disabled negative, non-alnum stripping, and the drift
case for the optional-skills branch. All five fail against main and
pass with the fix.
After a transient Telegram 502, _handle_polling_network_error's
stop()+start_polling() cycle can leave PTB's Updater with `running=True`
but a wedged consumer task that never makes progress. No error_callback
fires in that state, so the reconnect ladder never advances past attempt
1, the MAX_NETWORK_RETRIES fatal-error path is never reached, and the
gateway sits silent indefinitely.
Schedule a heartbeat probe (60s after a successful reconnect) that
verifies Updater.running is still True and bot.get_me() responds within
a tight asyncio.wait_for timeout. Either failure feeds back into the
reconnect ladder so the existing escalation path fires.
No PTB-internal coupling, no Application rebuild — minimal additive
defense inside the existing reconnect abstraction.
Tests cover healthy / Updater non-running / probe timeout / probe
network error / already-fatal cases, plus an integration check that the
probe is actually scheduled after a successful start_polling().
Closes the silent-wedge case observed in the wild after a transient
Telegram 502; existing reconnect tests updated to mock bot.get_me() now
that the success path schedules a heartbeat probe.
FixesNousResearch/hermes-agent#11768
Root cause: target.strip().lower() was lowercasing the entire target string,
corrupting case-sensitive chat IDs like Slack C123ABC and Matrix !RoomABC.
Fix: Only lowercase the platform prefix for case-insensitive matching;
preserve the original case for chat_id and thread_id values.
YAML loads a bare numeric value such as
discord:
free_response_channels: 1491973769726791812
as an int. _discord_free_response_channels() / _slack_free_response_channels()
checked `isinstance(raw, list)` and `isinstance(raw, str)` in that order and
then fell through to `return set()`, so a single-channel config that happened
to be unquoted was silently dropped with no log line — the bot kept demanding
@mentions even though the channel was configured to free-response.
A multi-channel value like `1234567890,9876543210` does not trip this because
the comma forces YAML to parse it as a string. Single-channel configs are
the only case that breaks, which is exactly the footgun that's hardest to
diagnose (the config "looks right" and the feature just doesn't activate).
Note that the old-schema env-var bridge at gateway/config.py:614+ already
runs `str(frc)` when forwarding to SLACK_/DISCORD_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS,
so the env-var fallback worked. The bug only surfaces on the
`config.extra["free_response_channels"]` path populated by the `platforms:`
bridge at gateway/config.py:576, which passes the raw YAML value through
unchanged.
Fix at the reader: treat any non-list value as a scalar, coerce with str(),
then apply the same CSV split semantics. This keeps the public contract
stable (list or str-like continues to work identically) while accepting
the ints that the YAML loader is free to hand us.
Added tests for both Discord and Slack covering:
- bare int value in config.extra
- list of ints in config.extra
Self-review fixes for the slash ephemeral ack:
- Only stash response_url when text starts with '/' (gateway command).
Free-form questions via '/hermes <question>' must produce public agent
replies visible to the whole channel, not ephemeral.
- Use a ContextVar (_slash_user_id) to thread the invoking user's ID
from _handle_slash_command through to send(). _pop_slash_context now
matches the exact (channel_id, user_id) key when the ContextVar is
set, preventing concurrent users on the same channel from stealing
each other's ephemeral context. ContextVars propagate to child
asyncio.Tasks, so the value survives through handle_message →
_process_message_background → _send_with_retry → send().
- Add truncate_message() in _send_slash_ephemeral to prevent silent
failures on long responses (response_url has the same ~40k limit).
- Log send_private_notice failures at debug level instead of bare
except/pass — aids diagnostics without spamming.
- Document app_mention dedup dependency on shared event ts.
- Add tests: free-form question must NOT stash context, concurrent
users on the same channel get isolated contexts, non-slash send()
path fallback behavior.
Adds platform-level private notice delivery abstraction so operational
messages (e.g. sethome prompt) can be sent ephemerally on Slack when
configured with `slack.notice_delivery: private`.
Changes:
- gateway/config.py: _normalize_notice_delivery() + GatewayConfig.get_notice_delivery()
with per-platform config bridging
- gateway/platforms/base.py: send_private_notice() default implementation
(falls through to send())
- gateway/platforms/slack.py: send_private_notice() via chat_postEphemeral
- gateway/run.py: _deliver_platform_notice() helper replaces direct
adapter.send() for the sethome notice, with private→public fallback
- gateway/platforms/slack.py: app_mention handler now forwards to
_handle_slack_message (safe due to ts-based dedup) instead of no-op pass,
fixing edge-case Slack configs where mentions arrive only as app_mention
- gateway/platforms/slack.py format_message: negative lookbehind prevents
markdown images (![]()) from becoming broken Slack links; italic regex
now requires non-whitespace boundaries so 'a * b * c' stays literal
Based on PR #9340 by @probepark.
Slack slash commands (/q, /btw, /stop, /model, etc.) previously showed
no user-visible acknowledgement and posted command replies as public
channel messages. This diverged from Discord, which uses ephemeral
deferred responses for slash commands.
Changes:
- handle_hermes_command now passes response_type='ephemeral' and a
'Running /cmd…' text to ack(), giving the user immediate 'Only visible
to you' feedback when they invoke any native slash command.
- _handle_slash_command stashes the Slack response_url from the command
payload in a per-channel context dict before dispatching to
handle_message.
- send() checks for a pending slash context and, when found, POSTs to
the response_url with replace_original=true to swap the initial ack
with the real command reply (e.g. 'Queued for the next turn.'),
keeping it ephemeral.
- Stale slash contexts are garbage-collected on lookup (120s TTL).
- The response_url POST is non-fatal: if it fails, the user already saw
the initial ack, and send() returns success=True.
Fixes#18182
Long-running gateway processes that survive 'hermes update' keep
pre-update modules cached in sys.modules. When new tool files on
disk then try to 'from hermes_cli.config import cfg_get' (added in
PR #17304), the import resolves against the stale module object
and raises ImportError — hitting users on Matrix, Telegram, Feishu,
and other platforms.
Two defenses:
1. Gateway self-check (gateway/run.py). On __init__, snapshot the
newest mtime across sentinel source files (hermes_cli/config.py,
run_agent.py, gateway/run.py, etc.). On every inbound message,
re-read those mtimes; if any is newer than boot time + 2s slack,
request a graceful restart via the normal drain path and return
a one-line ack to the user. Idempotent, works regardless of how
the update happened (hermes update, manual git pull, installer).
2. Post-restart survivor sweep ('hermes update'). After the existing
restart loop, sleep 3s, rescan for gateway PIDs we already tried
to kill, and SIGKILL any survivors. The detached profile watchers
and systemd then relaunch with fresh code instead of waiting out
the 120s watcher timeout.
Closes#17648.
Telegram's client does not display empty forum topics in the chat's
topic list. After createForumTopic succeeds, send a short pin message
into the new topic so it becomes immediately visible to the user.
Only fires for newly created topics (no thread_id in config yet).
Failure to send the seed is non-fatal (debug-logged, topic still works).
The bot-owner identity check inside OwnerCommandMiddleware was commented
out and replaced with a hardcoded `is_owner = True`, so any group member
could trigger allowlisted privileged commands (/approve, /deny, /stop,
/reset, /retry, /undo, /new, /background, /bg, /btw, /queue, /q) by
sending the slash command without @-mentioning the bot. The most severe
case is /approve: a non-owner could approve a dangerous tool call the
bot was waiting on the owner to confirm.
Re-enable the documented identity check (push.from_account ==
push.bot_owner_id) so only the configured owner can issue these
commands.
Add a standing-goal slash command that keeps Hermes working toward a
user-stated objective across turns until it is achieved, paused, or
the turn budget runs out. Our take on the Ralph loop — cf. Codex CLI
0.128.0's /goal.
After each turn, a lightweight auxiliary-model judge call asks 'is
this goal satisfied by the assistant's last response?'. If not, and
we're under the turn budget (default 20), Hermes feeds a continuation
prompt back into the same session as a normal user message. Any real
user message preempts the continuation loop automatically.
Judge failures fail OPEN (continue) so a flaky judge never wedges
progress — the turn budget is the real backstop.
### Commands
- `/goal <text>` — set a standing goal (kicks off the first turn)
- `/goal` or `/goal status` — show current state
- `/goal pause` — pause the continuation loop
- `/goal resume` — resume (resets turn counter)
- `/goal clear` — drop the goal
Works on both CLI and gateway platforms via the central CommandDef
registry.
### Design invariants preserved
- **Prompt cache**: continuation prompts are regular user-role
messages appended to history. No system-prompt mutation, no toolset
swap.
- **Role alternation**: continuation is a user turn, never injected
mid-tool-loop.
- **Session persistence**: goal state lives in SessionDB.state_meta
keyed by `goal:<session_id>`, so `/resume` picks it up.
- **Mid-run safety**: on the gateway, `/goal status|pause|clear` are
allowed mid-run (control-plane only); setting a new goal requires
`/stop` first so we don't race a second continuation prompt against
the current turn.

Adds opt-in auto-deletion for slash-command reply messages like
"New session started!", "Restarting gateway…", "Stopped.", and
YOLO toggles. After the TTL elapses the gateway calls the adapter's
delete_message; on platforms without a delete API (everything except
Telegram today) the TTL is silently ignored and the message stays.
Requested on Twitter by @charlesmcdowell — tool-call bubbles are useful
real-time, but system notices clutter the thread once the agent finishes.
Implementation:
- EphemeralReply(str) sentinel in gateway/platforms/base.py. Subclasses
str so existing 'X' in response / response.startswith(...) checks in
tests and call sites keep working unchanged; isinstance() still
distinguishes it for the send path.
- _process_message_background and both busy-session bypass paths
(in base.py) call _unwrap_ephemeral() on the handler return, send
the unwrapped text, and schedule a detached delete task when the
TTL > 0 AND the adapter class overrides delete_message.
- display.ephemeral_system_ttl (default 0 = disabled) in DEFAULT_CONFIG.
Handler can pass ttl_seconds explicitly to override.
- Wrapped the highest-noise return sites: /new, /reset, /stop,
/yolo on/off, /restart success + "already in progress". Draining
notices and /help output left as plain strings — those are
informational and users want to read them.
Backward-compat: default TTL 0 → no scheduling, no behavior change
for existing users. Platforms without delete_message silently no-op.
The user-visible /compress banner and the post-compression last_prompt_tokens
writeback both counted only the raw message transcript (chars/4). With a 15KB
system prompt and 30 tool schemas (~26KB), a 4-message transcript that looks
like ~45 tokens to the transcript-only estimator is really ~10.5K tokens of
request pressure — a 234x gap.
Two user-facing consequences:
- Banner shows 'Compressing … (~45 tokens)…' while compression is actually
firing on 10K+ tokens of real pressure, confusing users about why
compression triggered (reported by @codecovenant on X; #6217).
- Post-compression last_prompt_tokens writeback omits tool schemas, so the
next should_compress() check compares real usage against a stale
underestimate — compression triggers late, potentially past the model's
context limit on small-context models (#14695).
Swap estimate_messages_tokens_rough() for estimate_request_tokens_rough()
at every user-visible banner and at the post-compression writeback.
estimate_request_tokens_rough() already existed for exactly this purpose
and includes system prompt + tool schemas.
Touched call sites:
- run_agent.py: post-compression last_prompt_tokens writeback, post-tool
call should_compress() fallback when provider usage is missing
- cli.py: /compress banner + summary
- gateway/run.py: gateway /compress banner + summary
- tui_gateway/server.py: TUI /compress status + summary
- acp_adapter/server.py: ACP /compact before/after
Left intentionally alone:
- Session-hygiene fallback and the 'no agent' /status path in gateway/run.py
— no agent instance is in scope to query for system prompt/tools, and the
existing 30-50% overestimate wobble on hygiene is safety-accepted.
- Verbose-mode 'Request size' logging — informational only, already counts
system prompt via api_messages[0].
Also relabels the feedback line from 'Rough transcript estimate' to
'Approx request size' so the metric label matches what it actually measures.

Closes#14695Closes#6217
_process_message_background snapshotted callback_generation from the
interrupt event at the TOP of the task — before the handler ran.
_hermes_run_generation is only set on the event by
GatewayRunner._bind_adapter_run_generation during
_handle_message_with_agent, which runs DURING the handler await. The
early snapshot always captured None, which then flowed into
pop_post_delivery_callback(..., generation=None) in the finally block.
In pop_post_delivery_callback, generation=None with a tuple-registered
entry (generation, callback) bypasses the ownership check — it pops and
fires the callback regardless of which run owns it. Result: a stale run
could fire a fresher run's post-delivery callback (e.g. a
background-review notification attributed to the wrong turn).
Fix: move the snapshot into the finally block, after the handler has
run and _hermes_run_generation has been bound to the current run.
Regression test added: simulates a stale handler at generation=1 and a
fresher callback registered at generation=2. Pre-fix: snapshot=None →
pop fires the generation=2 callback under generation=1's ownership
("newer" fires). Post-fix: snapshot=1 → pop skips the mismatched
entry, callback stays in the dict for the correct run to claim.
Verified: test FAILS on current main (captures "newer" in fired list),
PASSES with this fix.
Salvaged from PR #12565 (the callback-ownership portion only; the
/status totals portion was already fixed on main in 7abc9ce4d via #17158).

Widens #16528 to two sibling sites that had the same quoted-boolean

truthy under bool() / if-check.

- tools/skill_manager_tool.py _guard_agent_created_enabled: is_truthy_value wrap

Add two operator-facing toggles for inbound Feishu admission, enabling
bot-to-bot scenarios such as A2A orchestration and inter-bot
notifications:
FEISHU_ALLOW_BOTS=none|mentions|all (default: none)
Accept messages from other bots. `mentions` requires the peer
bot to @-mention Hermes; `all` admits every peer-bot message.
FEISHU_REQUIRE_MENTION=true|false (default: true)
Whether group messages must @-mention the bot. Override per-chat
via `group_rules.<chat_id>.require_mention` in config.yaml.
Defaults preserve prior behavior. Self-echo protection is always on:
when the bot's identity is unresolved (auto-detection failed and
FEISHU_BOT_OPEN_ID unset), peer-bot messages are rejected fail-closed
to avoid feedback loops.
Admitted peer bots bypass the human-user allowlist
(FEISHU_ALLOWED_USERS) to match existing Discord behavior; humans
still need an explicit allowlist entry. yaml feishu.allow_bots is
bridged to the env var so the adapter and gateway auth layer share
one source of truth.
Resolving peer-bot display names requires the
application:bot.basic_info:read scope; without it, peers still route
but appear as their open_id.
Test: tests/gateway/test_feishu_bot_admission.py covers the admission
pipeline, group-policy bot-bypass, hydration, and event-dispatch
plumbing as a parametrized matrix.

reset_session() creates a fresh SessionEntry with created_at == updated_at,
but get_or_create_session() bumps updated_at on the next inbound message,
causing _is_new_session in _handle_message_with_agent to evaluate False.
The topic/channel skill auto-load gate (group_topics, channel_skill_bindings)
silently skips the first message after a manual reset.
Add an is_fresh_reset flag on SessionEntry, set by reset_session() and
consumed once by the message handler. Kept distinct from was_auto_reset
because that flag also drives a 'session expired due to inactivity'
user-facing notice and a context-note prepend — both wrong for an
explicit /new or /reset.
Persisted through to_dict/from_dict so the flag survives gateway
restart between /reset and the next message.

/status was reading session_entry.total_tokens from the in-memory
SessionStore (gateway/session.py), which the agent never writes to —
so the token count was always 0.
The agent already persists token deltas to the SQLite SessionDB
(run_agent.py:11497) for every platform with a session_id. Route
/status through that single source of truth instead of duplicating
token writes into a second store.
Fix:
- gateway/run.py: _handle_status_command now calls
self._session_db.get_session(session_id) and sums the five token
component columns (input/output/cache_read/cache_write/reasoning).
Falls back to 0 when no SessionDB is configured or no row exists.
- Two new regression tests covering the populated-row and
missing-row paths.

Minor follow-up to the native-image-buffer isolation fix. The write site
in _prepare_inbound_message_text was calling build_session_key directly,
while every other call site in gateway/run.py uses the _session_key_for_source
helper — which consults session_store._generate_session_key first and falls
back to build_session_key. Keeping the write key and consume key on the
same helper prevents key drift if the session store ever overrides the
default keying behavior.
Widens the cherry-picked fix from @jatingodnani (#17343) to the
gateway path. On main, user_config.agent.disabled_toolsets was only
honored by _get_platform_tools' name-level subtraction — it did not
catch tools pulled in implicitly by a composite toolset (browser
includes web_search, hermes-* platforms include most tools).
Changes:
- gateway/run.py: resolve disabled_toolsets alongside enabled_toolsets
and pass to AIAgent at both user-facing construction sites (normal
message loop + single-turn cron-like path). Hygiene/compression
agents (fixed enabled_toolsets=[memory]) are intentionally untouched.
- gateway/run.py: add (agent, disabled_toolsets) to
_CACHE_BUSTING_CONFIG_KEYS so editing the list in config.yaml
invalidates the cached AIAgent on the next message.
- cli.py: drop unused 'import platform' left over from PR #17343's
import churn; restore 'import sys' used throughout the file.
- model_tools.py: drop unused 'import os, sys' added by PR #17343;
fix comment reference from #15291 (unrelated OAuth issue) to #17309.

Widen PR #17842's atomic-write fix to two sibling sites that exhibit the
same 'partial JSON on interrupted write' class of bug:
- gateway/platforms/feishu.py: dedup state (_dedup_state_path)
- gateway/platforms/helpers.py: ParticipatedThreadTracker save
Both are small recovery/coordination files that get rewritten frequently and
break cross-restart dedup if left partial.
Signal-cli sends dataMessage wrappers for profile key updates and other
metadata events that have no actual text content. These were reaching the
gateway as msg='' and triggering full agent turns for nothing.
Add early return in _handle_envelope() when both message field is empty/
missing/whitespace AND there are no attachments. Messages with media
attachments but no text still flow through.
- 12 lines added to gateway/platforms/signal.py
- 5 new tests in TestSignalContentlessEnvelope class
Archived skills (moved to ~/.hermes/skills/.archive/ by the curator)
were still surfaced in the <available_skills> system prompt under a
fake '.archive' category, causing the agent to load and try to use
deprecated skills. The os.walk in iter_skill_index_files() only
excluded .git/.github/.hub.
Add '.archive' to EXCLUDED_SKILL_DIRS, and to the two other places
that hardcode the same exclusion tuple (gateway/run.py and
agent/skill_commands.py).
The #1630 fix introduced a blanket ``agent_failed_early`` transcript skip
to prevent context-overflow sessions from looping. That guard also
triggers for unrelated transient failures (429 rate limits, read
timeouts, connection resets, provider 5xx) which have nothing to do with
session size — and it silently drops the user's message, so the agent
has no memory of the last turn on retry.
Split the failure classification in ``GatewayRunner._run_agent``:
* Context-overflow (``compression_exhausted`` flag, explicit
context-length phrases, or generic 400 with a long history) → keep
the existing skip, preserving the #1630/#9893 fix.
* Anything else that failed → persist just the user message so the
conversation survives a retry.
Use specific multi-word phrases (``context length``, ``token limit``,
``prompt is too long``, etc.) to match ``run_agent.py``'s own
classifier; bare ``exceed`` false-positively flagged "rate limit
exceeded" as context overflow.
Covered by new tests in ``tests/gateway/test_7100_transient_failure_transcript.py``
and the existing #1630 suite still passes.
When a user sets model.context_length in config.yaml, the value was only
used for Hermes' internal compression decisions (context_compressor) but
NOT for Ollama's num_ctx parameter. Ollama auto-detects context from GGUF
metadata (often 256K+) and allocates that much VRAM regardless of the
user's config — causing OOM on smaller GPUs like the P100 (16GB).
Root cause: two separate context values existed independently:
- context_compressor.context_length = config value (e.g. 65536) ✓
- _ollama_num_ctx = GGUF metadata value (e.g. 256000) ✗ ignored config
Changes:
1. Cap Ollama num_ctx to config context_length (run_agent.py)
When model.context_length is explicitly set and no explicit
ollama_num_ctx override exists, cap the auto-detected GGUF value
to the user's context_length. This is the core fix — it prevents
Ollama from allocating more VRAM than the user budgeted.
2. Pass config_context_length through all secondary call sites
Several paths called get_model_context_length() without the config
override, falling through to the 256K default fallback:
- cli.py: @-reference expansion and /model switch display
- gateway/run.py: @-reference expansion and /model switch display
- tui_gateway/server.py: @-reference expansion
- hermes_cli/model_switch.py: resolve_display_context_length()
3. Normalize root-level context_length in config (hermes_cli/config.py)
_normalize_root_model_keys() now migrates root-level context_length
into the model section, matching existing behavior for provider and
base_url. Users who wrote `context_length: 65536` at the YAML root
instead of under `model:` had it silently ignored.
4. Fix misleading comments (agent/model_metadata.py)
DEFAULT_FALLBACK_CONTEXT is 256K (CONTEXT_PROBE_TIERS[0]), not 128K
as two comments stated.
Tests: 3 new tests for root-level context_length normalization.
All existing context_length tests pass (96 tests).
The busy-session handler (_handle_active_session_busy_message) bypassed the
authorization gate that the cold path enforces via _is_user_authorized(). In
shared-thread contexts (Slack threads, Telegram forum topics, Discord threads)
where thread_sessions_per_user=False (the default), all participants share one
session_key. An unauthorized user posting in the same thread as an authorized
user would hit the active-session branch, skip the auth check, and have their
text merged into _pending_messages or injected via agent.interrupt().
This commit adds the same _is_user_authorized() check at the top of the busy
handler, before any message queuing, steering, or interrupt logic. Unauthorized
messages are silently dropped (return True) with a warning log — matching the
cold-path behavior.
Affected platforms: Slack, Telegram, Discord, any adapter with shared-session
thread contexts.
Closes#17775
Ports PR #17888's send_multiple_images ABC to every gateway platform that
has a native multi-attachment API, so images arrive as a single bundled
message instead of N separate ones.
Native overrides:
- Telegram: send_media_group (10 photos per album, chunks over); animated
GIFs peeled off and routed through send_animation (albums don't support
animations)
- Discord: channel.send(files=[...]) (10 attachments per message, chunks
over); URL images downloaded into BytesIO so they render inline; forum
channels use create_thread with files=[...]
- Slack: files_upload_v2(file_uploads=[...]) (10 per call, chunks over);
respects thread_ts; records thread participation
- Mattermost: single post with file_ids list (5 per post — Mattermost cap,
chunks over)
- Email: single SMTP message with multiple MIME attachments (no chunk cap,
SMTP size governs); remote URLs remain linked in body (parity with
existing send_image)
All platforms fall back to the base per-image loop on any failure, so a
single bad image in a batch never loses the rest.
Matrix, WhatsApp, and single-attachment platforms (BlueBubbles, Feishu,
WeCom, WeChat, DingTalk) continue to use the base default loop — their
server APIs only accept one attachment per message anyway.
Tests: adds tests/gateway/test_send_multiple_images.py with 19 targeted
tests covering base default loop, chunking, animation peel-off, fallback
paths, and empty-batch no-ops across all five new overrides.

Adds a new `send_multiple_images` method to the ``BasePlatformAdapter``
that implements the default "One image per message" loop and allows for
platform-specific overriding.
Implements such an override for the Signal adapter, batching images
and trying (best-effort) to work around rate-limits for voluminous
batches using a specific scheduler.
Also implements batching + rate-limit handling in the `send_message`
tool.
New tests added for the Signal adapter, its rate-limit scheduler and the
`send_message` tool
Follow-up to the try/except guards added in the previous commit.
Four sibling call sites all read HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT /
HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT_WARNING / HERMES_AGENT_NOTIFY_INTERVAL via the
same read-env-or-fallback pattern, so factor it into _float_env(name,
default) alongside the existing _auto_continue_freshness_window()
helper.
Two defensive fixes in gateway/run.py:
1. yaml.safe_load returning None on empty config files (line 12706):
GatewayConfig.from_dict(data) crashes with AttributeError when the YAML
file is empty because safe_load returns None. All 6 other yaml.safe_load
call sites already use `or {}` — this one was missed.
Impact: gateway fails to start with empty --config file.
2. float() on env vars without ValueError guard (lines 3951, 11757, 11805,
11807): HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT, HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT_WARNING, and
HERMES_AGENT_NOTIFY_INTERVAL are cast via float() directly from
os.getenv(). A typo (e.g. "abc") raises ValueError and crashes the
agent turn or gateway startup.
Impact: single misconfigured env var crashes the entire gateway.
When the in-band pending-message drain spawns a fresh task and
transfers ownership via _session_tasks[session_key] = drain_task,
the original task still unwinds through the finally block. The
drain task picks up the same interrupt_event in its own
_process_message_background entry, so an unconditional
_release_session_guard(session_key, guard=interrupt_event) at the
end of the finally matches and deletes _active_sessions[session_key]
while the drain task is still pending its first await.
A concurrent inbound message arriving in that handoff window passes
the Level-1 guard (no entry exists) and spawns a second
_process_message_background for the same session — two agents on
one session_key, duplicate responses, duplicate tool calls.
Fix: only call _release_session_guard when the current task still
owns _session_tasks[session_key]. When ownership has been
transferred to a drain task, leave _active_sessions populated; the
drain task's own lifecycle releases it. This mirrors the
late-arrival drain path in the same finally block, which already
leaves both entries alone after handing off.
Also reorder stdlib imports in the new regression test file to
match the gateway test convention (stdlib before third-party).
Regression test: capture _active_sessions[sk] identity at every
handler entry across a 2-step in-band drain chain and assert the
guard Event identity stays the same. Pre-fix, the original task's
finally deletes the entry, the drain task falls through to the
`or asyncio.Event()` branch, and a fresh Event is installed —
identity diverges. Post-fix, the entry is preserved and the drain
task reuses the original Event.

`_process_message_background` finished a turn, found a queued
follow-up, and drained it via `await
self._process_message_background(pending_event, session_key)`. Each
chained follow-up added a frame to the call stack instead of starting
fresh. Under sustained pending-queue activity (e.g. a user sending
follow-ups faster than the agent finishes turns) the C stack would
exhaust at ~2000 nested frames and SIGSEGV the process.
Mirror the late-arrival drain pattern that already exists in the same
function: spawn a new `asyncio.create_task(...)` for the pending event
and return so the current frame can unwind. The new task takes
ownership via `_session_tasks[session_key]`.
The late-arrival drain in `finally` could now race with the in-band
drain across the `await typing_task` / `await stop_typing` window, so
add a guard: if `_session_tasks[session_key]` is no longer the current
task, an in-band drain already spawned a follow-up task — re-queue the
late-arrival event so that task picks it up after its current event,
instead of spawning a second concurrent task for the same session_key.
Regression test (`test_pending_drain_no_recursion.py`) chains 12
follow-ups and asserts the recorded
`_process_message_background` stack depth stays bounded at handler
entry. Pre-fix: depths grow linearly `[1,2,3,…,12]`. Post-fix: all
depths are `1`.
`test_duplicate_reply_suppression::test_stale_response_suppressed_when_interrupted`
called `_process_message_background` directly and implicitly relied on
the old recursive `await` semantic — updated to wait for the spawned
drain task before checking the sent list.

local_command TTS provider redesign.
- Add should_send_media_as_audio(platform, ext, is_voice) in
gateway/platforms/base.py; single source of truth for audio routing.
- Add .flac to recognized audio extensions (MEDIA regex, weixin audio
set, send_message audio set).
- Telegram send_voice() now falls back to send_document for formats
Telegram's Bot API can't play natively (.wav, .flac, ...) instead of
raising; MP3/M4A still go to sendAudio, Opus/OGG still go to sendVoice.
- Route _send_telegram() in send_message_tool through a narrower
_TELEGRAM_SEND_AUDIO_EXTS = {.mp3, .m4a} set.
- cron.scheduler._send_media_via_adapter now delegates the audio
decision to should_send_media_as_audio so it matches the gateway.
- Update the cron live-adapter ogg test to flag [[audio_as_voice]] so
it still routes to sendVoice under the new Telegram-specific policy.
- Tests: unit coverage for should_send_media_as_audio across platforms,
end-to-end MEDIA routing via _process_message_background and
GatewayRunner._deliver_media_from_response, TelegramAdapter.send_voice
fallback for FLAC/WAV.

That breaks any plugin or hook handler that uses `from __future__ import
annotations` together with a Pydantic BaseModel / dataclass / anything
that introspects `__module__`: at first request Pydantic tries to
resolve string-form type hints against the defining module's namespace,
can't find it by name, and raises:
PydanticUserError: TypeAdapter[...] is not fully defined;
you should define ... and all referenced types,
then call `.rebuild()` on the instance.
This is what broke the kanban dashboard's 'triage' button — POST
/api/plugins/kanban/tasks validated against CreateTaskBody (a Pydantic
model in a file using `from __future__ import annotations`) and
returned 500 on every click.
The fix, applied symmetrically to both loaders:
1. Compute module_name once.
2. Register the module in sys.modules BEFORE exec_module.
3. On exec_module failure, pop the half-initialized stub so subsequent
reloads don't pick up broken state.
GETs were unaffected because they don't build a body TypeAdapter, which
is why this only surfaced when users started POSTing.
feat(gateway): refine Platform._missing_ and platform-connected dispatch
Restricts plugin-name acceptance to bundled plugin scan + registry
(no arbitrary string -> enum-pollution), pulls per-platform connectivity
checks into a _PLATFORM_CONNECTED_CHECKERS lambda map with a clean
_is_platform_connected method, and adds tests covering the checker map,
plugin platform interface, and IRC setup wizard.
Merge the two gateway setup paths (hermes setup gateway + hermes gateway
setup) to use a single _unified_platforms() list that merges built-in
_PLATFORMS with dynamically registered plugin entries from
platform_registry.
- Add setup_fn field to PlatformEntry for plugin setup flows
- _unified_platforms() merges built-ins with registry entries by key
- setup_gateway() now uses unified list instead of hardcoded
_GATEWAY_PLATFORMS tuple list
- gateway_setup() uses same unified list, plugin entries appear
alongside built-ins with no [plugin] suffix
- _platform_status() handles plugin platforms via registry check_fn
- Plugin platforms with setup_fn get called directly; plugins without
get a generic env-var display fallback
IRC and other plugin platforms now appear automatically in the setup
menu when registered via platform_registry.register().
feat(gateway): surface disabled platform plugins in setup and auto-enable on select
Platform plugins under plugins/platforms/* (IRC, etc.) were gated behind
plugins.enabled, so `hermes gateway setup` wouldn't list them until the
user ran `hermes plugins enable <name>` first. Now the setup menu always
surfaces them as "plugin disabled — select to enable", and picking one
adds it to plugins.enabled before running its setup flow.
Along the way, unify the two gateway setup flows so `hermes setup gateway`
and `hermes gateway setup` both read from the same platform list (built-in
_PLATFORMS + platform_registry entries), dispatch through a single
_configure_platform() helper, and share _platform_status(). Deletes the
dead bespoke wrappers in setup.py (_setup_whatsapp, _setup_weixin,
_setup_email, etc.) that duplicated logic now covered by the registry
path or _setup_standard_platform.
Also:
- PlatformEntry gains a plugin_name field so the registry knows which
plugin owns each entry (required for auto-enable).
- PluginContext.register_platform auto-stamps plugin_name from the
manifest so plugins don't have to pass it explicitly.
- PluginManager now scans plugins/platforms/* as its own category root,
one level below the bundled plugin scan.
- Fix IRC plugin discovery: rename PLUGIN.yaml → plugin.yaml (the
scanner is case-sensitive) and add the missing __init__.py that
_load_directory_module requires.
Closes remaining functional gaps and adds documentation.
webhook.py: Cross-platform delivery now checks the plugin registry
for unknown platform names instead of hardcoding 15 names in a tuple.
Plugin platforms can receive webhook-routed deliveries.
prompt_builder: Platform hints (system prompt LLM guidance) now fall
back to the plugin registry's platform_hint field. Plugin platforms
can tell the LLM 'you're on IRC, no markdown.'
PlatformEntry: Added platform_hint field for LLM guidance injection.
IRC adapter: Added acquire_scoped_lock/release_scoped_lock in
connect/disconnect to prevent two profiles from using the same IRC
identity. Added platform_hint for IRC-specific LLM guidance.
Removed dead token-empty-warning extension for plugin platforms
(plugin adapters handle their own env vars via check_fn).
website/docs/developer-guide/adding-platform-adapters.md:
- Added 'Plugin Path (Recommended)' section with full code examples,
PLUGIN.yaml template, config.yaml examples, and a table showing all
18 integration points the plugin system handles automatically
- Renamed built-in checklist to clarify it's for core contributors
gateway/platforms/ADDING_A_PLATFORM.md:
- Added Plugin Path section pointing to the reference implementation
and full docs guide
- Clarified built-in path is for core contributors only
PII redaction: build_session_context_prompt() now checks the plugin
registry's pii_safe flag in addition to the hardcoded _PII_SAFE_PLATFORMS
frozenset. Plugin platforms that set pii_safe=True (e.g. phone-based
messaging bridges) get their user IDs redacted before LLM context.
Token empty warnings: the empty-token diagnostic at config load now
checks the plugin registry's required_env when a platform isn't in the
hardcoded _token_env_names dict. Catches 'enabled but empty' for
plugin platforms too.
Extends the platform plugin interface from Phase 1 to cover every
touchpoint where built-in platforms have hardcoded behavior.
- allowed_users_env / allow_all_env: per-platform auth env vars
- max_message_length: smart-chunking for send_message tool
- pii_safe: session PII redaction flag
- emoji: CLI/gateway display
- allow_update_command: /update access control
send_message tool (tools/send_message_tool.py):
- Replaced hardcoded platform_map dict with Platform() call
- Added _send_via_adapter() for plugin platforms — routes through
live gateway adapter when available
- Registry-aware max message length for smart chunking
Cron delivery (cron/scheduler.py):
- Replaced hardcoded 15-entry platform_map with Platform() call
- Plugin platforms now work as cron delivery targets
User authorization (gateway/run.py _is_user_authorized):
- Registry fallback: checks PlatformEntry.allowed_users_env and
allow_all_env when platform not in hardcoded maps
- Plugin platforms get per-platform auth support
_UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS: checks registry allow_update_command flag
Channel directory: includes plugin platforms in session enumeration
Orphaned config warning: descriptive message when plugin platform is
in config but no plugin registered it
Gateway weakref: _gateway_runner_ref for cross-module adapter access
hermes status: shows plugin platforms with (plugin) tag
hermes gateway setup: plugin platforms appear in menu with setup hints
hermes_cli/platforms.py: get_all_platforms() merges with registry,
platform_label() falls back to registry for plugin names
- 8 new tests (extended fields, cron resolution, platforms merge)
- Updated 3 tests for new Platform() based resolution
- 2829 passed, 24 pre-existing failures, zero new failures
Adds a platform adapter plugin interface so anyone can create new gateway
platforms (IRC, Viber, Line, etc.) as drop-in plugins without modifying
core gateway code.
- PlatformEntry dataclass: name, label, adapter_factory, check_fn,
validate_config, required_env, install_hint, source
- PlatformRegistry singleton with register/unregister/create_adapter
- _create_adapter() in gateway/run.py checks registry first, falls
through to existing if/elif chain for built-in platforms
- Platform._missing_() accepts unknown string values, creating cached
pseudo-members so Platform('irc') is Platform('irc') holds true
- GatewayConfig.from_dict() now parses plugin platform names from
config.yaml without rejecting them
- get_connected_platforms() delegates to registry for unknown platforms
- PluginContext.register_platform() for plugin authors
- Mirrors the existing register_tool() / register_hook() pattern
- Full async IRC adapter using stdlib asyncio (zero external deps)
- Connects via TLS, handles PING/PONG, nick collision, NickServ auth
- Channel messages require addressing (nick: msg), DMs always dispatch
- Markdown stripping for IRC-clean output, message splitting for
512-byte line limit
- Config via config.yaml extra dict or IRC_* env vars
- Platform enum dynamic members (identity stability, case normalization)
- PlatformRegistry (register, unregister, create, validation, factory)
- GatewayConfig integration (from_dict parsing, get_connected_platforms)
- IRC adapter (init, send, protocol parsing, markdown, requirements)
No existing platform adapters were migrated — the if/elif chain is
untouched. This is Phase 1: prove the interface with a real plugin.
Reloading MCP servers rebuilds the tool set for the active session, which
invalidates the provider prompt cache (tool schemas are baked into the
system prompt). The next message re-sends full input tokens — can be
expensive on long-context or high-reasoning models.
To surface that cost, /reload-mcp now routes through a new slash-confirm
primitive with three options: Approve Once / Always Approve / Cancel.
'Always Approve' persists approvals.mcp_reload_confirm: false so future
reloads run silently.
Coverage:
* Classic CLI (cli.py) — interactive numbered prompt.
* TUI (tui_gateway + Ink ops.ts) — text warning on first call; `now` /
`always` args skip the gate; `always` also persists the opt-out.
* Messenger gateway — button UI on Telegram (inline keyboard), Discord
(discord.ui.View), Slack (Block Kit actions); text fallback on every
other platform via /approve /always /cancel replies intercepted in
gateway/run.py _handle_message.
* Config key: approvals.mcp_reload_confirm (default true).
* Auto-reload paths (CLI file watcher, TUI config-sync mtime poll) pass
confirm=true so they do NOT prompt.
Implementation:
* tools/slash_confirm.py — module-level pending-state store used by all
adapters and by the CLI prompt. Thread-safe register/resolve/clear.
* gateway/platforms/base.py — send_slash_confirm hook (default 'Not
supported' → text fallback).
* gateway/run.py — _request_slash_confirm helper + text intercept in
_handle_message (yields to in-progress tool-exec approvals so
dangerous-command /approve still unblocks the tool thread first).
Tests:
* tests/tools/test_slash_confirm.py — primitive lifecycle + async
resolution + double-click atomicity (16 tests).
* tests/hermes_cli/test_mcp_reload_confirm_gate.py — default-config
shape + deep-merge preserves user opt-out (5 tests).
Targeted runs (hermetic): 89 passed (slash-confirm, config gate,
existing agent cache, existing telegram approval buttons).
PR #15027 (5 days ago) shipped TELEGRAM_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS as a chat-ID
allowlist. #17686 correctly renames that to sender user IDs and moves
chat IDs to TELEGRAM_GROUP_ALLOWED_CHATS. Without a shim, any user on
PR #15027's guidance would silently start rejecting group traffic on
upgrade.
- gateway/run.py: in _is_user_authorized, if TELEGRAM_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS
contains values starting with '-' (chat-ID-shaped), honor them as chat
IDs and log a one-shot deprecation warning pointing users at the new
TELEGRAM_GROUP_ALLOWED_CHATS var.
- tests/gateway/test_unauthorized_dm_behavior.py: three new tests cover
legacy chat-ID values authorizing the listed chat, not crossing to
other chats, and mixed sender/chat values in the same var.
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/telegram.md: rewrite the Group
Allowlisting section to document the new user/chat split + migration
note. Remove stale '/thread_id' suffix claim (code never parsed it).
- website/docs/reference/environment-variables.md: document all three
Telegram allowlist env vars.
Salvage-follow-up to @shannonsands's /reload-skills PR. Trims the feature to
match the design: user-initiated rescan, no prompt-cache reset, no new
schema surface, no phantom user turn, and the next-turn note carries each
added/removed skill's 60-char description (not just its name).
Changes vs the original PR:
* Drop the in-process skills prompt-cache clear in reload_skills(). Skills
are invoked at runtime via /skill-name, skills_list, or skill_view —
they don't need to live in the system prompt for the model to use them.
Keeping the cache intact preserves prefix caching across the reload so
/reload-skills pays no cache-reset cost. (MCP has to break the cache
because tool schemas must be known at conversation start; skills do not.)
* Drop the skills_reload agent tool and SKILLS_RELOAD_SCHEMA from
tools/skills_tool.py, plus the four skills_reload enumerations in
toolsets.py. No new schema surface — agents can already see a freshly-
installed skill via skill_view / skills_list the moment it's on disk.
* Replace the phantom 'role: user' turn injection with a one-shot queued
note. CLI uses self._pending_skills_reload_note (same pattern as
_pending_model_switch_note, prepended to the next API call and cleared).
Gateway uses self._pending_skills_reload_notes[session_key]. The note
is prepended to the NEXT real user message in this session, so message
alternation stays intact and nothing out-of-band is persisted to the
transcript.
* reload_skills() now returns added/removed as
[{'name': str, 'description': str}, ...] (description truncated to 60
chars — matches the curator / gateway adapter budget). The injected
next-turn note formats each entry as 'name — description' so the model
can actually reason about which new skills to call without running
skills_list first.
* Only emit the note when the diff is non-empty. On empty diff, print
'No new skills detected' and do nothing else.
* Tests rewritten to cover the queue semantics, the description payload,
and a regression guard that the prompt-cache snapshot is preserved.
Adds a public reload path for the in-process skill caches so newly
installed (or removed) skills become visible mid-session without a
gateway restart. Mirrors the shape of /reload-mcp.
Three surfaces:
* /reload-skills slash command — CLI (cli.py) and gateway (gateway/run.py),
with /reload_skills alias for Telegram autocomplete and an explicit
Discord registration.
* skills_reload agent tool (tools/skills_tool.py) — lets agents/subagents
pick up freshly-installed skills via tool call.
* agent.skill_commands.reload_skills() — shared helper that clears
_skill_commands, _SKILLS_PROMPT_CACHE (in-process LRU), and the
on-disk .skills_prompt_snapshot.json, then returns an added/removed
diff plus the new total count.
Tested:
* tests/agent/test_skill_commands_reload.py (9 cases)
* tests/cli/test_cli_reload_skills.py (3 cases)
* tests/gateway/test_reload_skills_command.py (4 cases)
Use case: NemoClaw / OpenShell-style sandboxed orchestrators that drop
skills into ~/.hermes/skills mid-session, plus agentic flows where the
agent itself installs a skill via the shell tool and needs it bound
without a gateway restart. The Python helper
clear_skills_system_prompt_cache(clear_snapshot=True) already exists
internally — this PR just exposes it via slash command and tool.
CI Tests workflow has been red on main for 40+ consecutive runs. This
commit recovers every failure visible in run 25130722163 (most recent
completed run prior to this PR).
Root causes, by group:
Test-mock drift after product landed (fix: update mocks)
- test_mcp_structured_content / test_mcp_dynamic_discovery (6 tests):
product added _rpc_lock (#02ae15222) and _schedule_tools_refresh
(#1350d12b0) without updating sibling test files. Install a real
asyncio.Lock inside the fake run-loop and patch at _schedule_tools_refresh.
- test_session.py: renamed normalize_whatsapp_identifier → canonical_
whatsapp_identifier upstream; keep a local alias so the legacy tests
keep working.
- test_run_progress_topics Slack DM test: PR #8006 made Slack default
tool_progress=off; explicitly set it to 'all' in the test fixture so
the progress-callback path still runs. Also read tool_progress_callback
at call time rather than freezing it in FakeAgent.__init__ — production
assigns it AFTER construction.
- test_tui_gateway_server session-create/close race: session.create now
defers _start_agent_build behind a 50ms timer — wait for the build
thread to enter _make_agent before closing, otherwise the orphan-
cleanup path never runs.
- test_protocol session.resume: product get_messages_as_conversation now
takes include_ancestors kwarg; accept **_kwargs in the test stub.
- test_copilot_acp_client redaction: redactor is OFF by default (snapshots
HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS at import); patch agent.redact._REDACT_ENABLED=True
for the duration of the test.
- test_minimax_provider: after #17171, dots in non-Anthropic model names
stay dots even with preserve_dots=False. Assert the new invariant
rather than the old 'broken for MiniMax' behavior.
- test_update_autostash: updater now scans `ps -A` for dashboard PIDs;
the test's catch-all subprocess.run stub needed stdout/stderr fields.
- test_accretion_caps: read_timestamps dict is populated lazily when
os.path.getmtime succeeds. Use .get("read_timestamps", {}) to tolerate
CI filesystems where the stat races file creation.
Change-detector tests (fix: rewrite as structural invariants)
- test_credential_sources_registry_has_expected_steps: was a frozen set
comparison that broke when minimax-oauth was added. Rewrite as an
invariant check (every step has description, no dupes, core steps
present) per AGENTS.md 'don't write change-detector tests'.
xdist ordering / test pollution (fix: reset state, use module-local patches)
- test_setup vercel: sibling test saved VERCEL_PROJECT_ID='project' to
os.environ via save_env_value() and never cleared it. monkeypatch.delenv
the VERCEL_* vars in the link-file test.
- test_clipboard TestIsWsl: GitHub Actions is on Azure VMs whose real
/proc/version often contains 'microsoft'. Patching builtins.open with
mock_open didn't reliably intercept hermes_constants.is_wsl's call in
xdist workers that had already cached _wsl_detected=True from an
earlier test. Patch hermes_constants.open directly and add
teardown_method to reset the cache after each test.
Pytest-asyncio cancellation hangs (fix: bound product await with timeout)
- test_session_split_brain_11016 (3 params) + test_gateway_shutdown
cancel-inflight: under pytest-asyncio 1.3.0, 'await task' and
'asyncio.gather(cancelled_tasks)' can stall for 30s when the cancelled
task's finally block awaits typing-task cleanup. Bound both with
asyncio.wait_for(..., timeout=5.0) and asyncio.shield — the stragglers
are released from adapter tracking and allowed to finish unwinding in
the background. This is also a legitimate hardening: a wedged finally
shouldn't stall the caller's dispatch or a gateway shutdown.
Orphan UI config (fix: merge tiny tab into messaging category)
- test_web_server test_no_single_field_categories: the telegram.reactions
config field lived in its own 'telegram' schema category with no
siblings. Fold it under 'discord' via _CATEGORY_MERGE so the dashboard
doesn't render an orphan single-field tab.
Local verification: 38/38 originally-failing tests pass; 4044/4044
gateway tests pass; 684/684 targeted subset (all 16 touched test files)
passes.
Address Copilot review on PR #16666:
1. **Duplicate event on every tool start** — both ``tool_progress_callback``
and ``tool_start_callback`` fire side-by-side in ``run_agent.py``, so
wiring both into chat completions emitted *two* ``hermes.tool.progress``
events per real tool call. Drop the legacy ``_on_tool_progress`` emit
entirely; ``_on_tool_start`` now produces a single unified event that
carries the legacy ``tool``/``emoji``/``label`` fields plus the new
``toolCallId``/``status`` correlation fields. Label is computed inline
via ``build_tool_preview`` so callers do not need to pre-format it.
2. **Weak per-event correlation in the regression test** — the previous
assertion checked that a ``toolCallId`` appeared *somewhere* in the
aggregate, which would have passed even if ``running`` lacked the id.
Collect ``(status, toolCallId)`` per event and assert each event
carries the correct pair, plus exactly two events on the wire (no
silent duplication regression).
The two existing chat-completions tool-progress tests are updated to fire
``tool_start_callback`` instead of ``tool_progress_callback``, matching
production reality where ``run_agent`` always pairs them.

Adds Vercel Sandbox as a supported Hermes terminal backend alongside
existing providers (Local, Docker, Modal, SSH, Daytona, Singularity).
Uses the Vercel Python SDK to create/manage cloud microVMs, supports
snapshot-based filesystem persistence keyed by task_id, and integrates
with the existing BaseEnvironment shell contract and FileSyncManager
for credential/skill syncing.
Based on #17127 by @scotttrinh, cherry-picked onto current main.
Adds two API server endpoints for external UIs and orchestrators:
- GET /v1/capabilities — machine-readable feature discovery so clients
can detect which Runs API / SSE / auth features this Hermes version
supports before depending on them.
- GET /v1/runs/{run_id} — pollable run status so dashboards can check
queued/running/completed/failed/cancelled/stopping state without
holding an SSE connection open.
Also moves request validation ahead of run allocation so invalid
payloads no longer leave orphaned entries in _run_streams waiting for
the TTL sweep.
task_id is intentionally kept as "default" for the Runs API to
preserve the shared-sandbox model used by CLI, gateway, and the
existing _run_agent_with_callbacks path. session_id is surfaced in
run status for external-UI correlation only.
Salvage of PR #17085 by @Magaav.
QR-login connects an iLink bot identity (...@im.bot), not a scriptable
personal WeChat account. iLink typically does not deliver ordinary WeChat
group events to these bots, so WEIXIN_GROUP_POLICY / WEIXIN_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS
often have no effect regardless of value.
- Setup wizard: print iLink-bot caveat before the group-policy prompt; relabel
the allowlist input as 'group chat IDs (not member user IDs)'; note that
'open' / 'allowlist' only take effect if iLink delivers group events.
- Adapter: log a WARNING at connect() when WEIXIN_GROUP_POLICY is non-disabled
so the limitation is surfaced in gateway logs, not just docs.
- Docs: add a top-of-page warning callout to weixin.md explaining the iLink
bot identity, narrow the 'DM and group messaging' feature line to DM-only
with a group caveat, tighten the Group Policy section and troubleshooting
row, and clarify WEIXIN_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS as group IDs (not user IDs)
in weixin.md and environment-variables.md.
Closes#17094
The Weixin adapter only recognized errcode=-14 as a session-expired
signal. However, iLink also returns ret=-2 with errmsg="unknown error"
for the same underlying condition (stale session). The adapter treated
ret=-2 as a rate-limit, exhausting retries with the same stale
context_token instead of refreshing the session.
Added _is_stale_session_ret() helper that distinguishes ret=-2 with
"unknown error" from genuine rate limits. Updated both the poll loop
and _send_text_chunk to use the helper.
FixesNousResearch/hermes-agent#17228
Wrap each adapter.connect() in asyncio.wait_for() so one platform hanging
during startup or reconnect cannot block the others. Telegram's 8-retry
connect loop (~140s worst case) previously prevented Feishu from ever
starting when Telegram was network-restricted — common for users in
regions where Telegram is blocked.
Default timeout is 30s; override via HERMES_GATEWAY_PLATFORM_CONNECT_TIMEOUT
(0 disables). Applied to both startup and the reconnect watcher so a
platform that hangs mid-retry also does not stall retries for others.
Fixes#17242
Fixes#6672
Memory providers now receive on_session_switch() whenever AIAgent.session_id
rotates mid-process — /resume, /branch, /reset, /new, and context
compression. Before this, providers that cached per-session state in
initialize() (Hindsight's _session_id, _document_id, accumulated
_session_turns, _turn_counter) kept writing into the old session's
record after the agent had moved on.
MemoryProvider ABC
------------------
- New optional hook on_session_switch(new_session_id, *,
parent_session_id='', reset=False, **kwargs) with no-op default for
backward compat. reset=True signals /reset or /new — providers should
flush accumulated per-session buffers. reset=False for /resume,
/branch, compression where the logical conversation continues.
MemoryManager
-------------
- on_session_switch() fans the hook out to every registered provider.
Isolated try/except per provider — one bad provider can't block others.
- Empty/None new_session_id is a no-op to avoid corrupting provider state
during shutdown paths.
run_agent.py
------------
- _sync_external_memory_for_turn now passes session_id=self.session_id
into sync_all() and queue_prefetch_all(). Providers with defensive
session_id updates in sync_turn (Hindsight already had this at
plugins/memory/hindsight/__init__.py:1199) now actually receive the
current id.
- Compression block at ~L8884 already notified the context engine of
the rollover; now also calls
_memory_manager.on_session_switch(reason='compression').
cli.py
------
- new_session() fires reset=True, reason='new_session' so providers
flush buffers.
- _handle_resume_command fires reset=False, reason='resume' with the
previous session as parent_session_id.
- _handle_branch_command fires reset=False, reason='branch' with the
parent session_id already captured for the DB parent link.
gateway/run.py
--------------
- _handle_resume_command now evicts the cached AIAgent, mirroring
/branch and /reset. The next message rebuilds a fresh agent whose
memory provider initialize() runs with the correct session_id —
matches the pattern the gateway already uses for provider state
cross-session transitions.
Hindsight reference implementation
----------------------------------
- plugins/memory/hindsight/__init__.py adds on_session_switch that:
updates _session_id, mints a fresh _document_id (prevents
vectorize-io/hindsight#1303 overwrite), and clears _session_turns /
_turn_counter / _turn_index so in-flight batches don't flush under
the new document id. parent_session_id only overwritten when provided
(avoids clobbering on a bare switch).
Tests
-----
- tests/agent/test_memory_session_switch.py: new dedicated file. ABC
default no-op, manager fan-out, failure isolation, empty-id no-op,
session_id propagation through sync_all/queue_prefetch_all, Hindsight
state transitions for every reset/non-reset case, parent preservation.
- tests/cli/test_branch_command.py: new test verifying /branch fires
the hook with correct parent_session_id + reset=False + reason.
- tests/gateway/test_resume_command.py: new test verifying /resume
evicts the cached agent.
- tests/run_agent/test_memory_sync_interrupted.py: updated existing
assertions to account for the session_id kwarg on sync_all and
queue_prefetch_all.
E2E verified (real imports, tmp HERMES_HOME):
- /resume: session_id updates, doc_id fresh, buffers cleared, parent set
- /branch: session_id forks, parent links to original
- /new: reset=True clears accumulated state
- compression: reason='compression' propagated, lineage preserved
- Empty id: no-op, state preserved
- Legacy provider without on_session_switch: no crash
Reported by @nicoloboschi (Hindsight maintainer); related scope-widening
comment by @kidonng extending coverage to compression.
- _markdown_to_signal docstring claimed SPOILER support but the regex list
never handled ``||...||``. Correct the docstring to match the four
actually-supported styles (BOLD / ITALIC / STRIKETHROUGH / MONOSPACE).
Signal's SPOILER bodyRange would need dedicated ``||spoiler||`` parsing
and is left for a follow-up.
- scripts/release.py: add exiao's noreply email to AUTHOR_MAP so the
contributor-attribution gate accepts their cherry-picked commit.
Three Signal adapter improvements that depend on the no-edit-mode
plumbing from the previous commit.
1. Native formatting (markdown -> Signal bodyRanges)
Signal renders markdown as literal characters (**bold**, `code`, #
heading), which looks broken. Added _markdown_to_signal(text) that
strips markdown syntax and emits Signal-native bodyRanges as
start:length:STYLE entries. Offsets are computed in UTF-16 code
units so non-BMP emoji stay aligned. Supports BOLD, ITALIC, STRIKE,
MONO, and headings mapped to BOLD. Fenced code and inline code are
handled; link syntax is unwrapped to visible text + URL.
Includes edge-case fixes reported previously:
- Bullet lists ("* item") no longer misidentified as italics
- URLs containing underscores no longer italicized around the dot
2. Reply-quote context
Parses dataMessage.quote on inbound messages and populates
MessageEvent.raw_message with sender + timestamp_ms. This lets the
gateway's existing [Replying to: "..."] injector (gateway/run.py)
work on Signal, matching Telegram/Matrix behavior.
3. Processing reactions
Overrides on_processing_start -> hourglass and on_processing_complete
-> checkmark via the sendReaction JSON-RPC using targetAuthor and
targetTimestamp pulled from raw_message. Uses the ProcessingOutcome
enum introduced in the previous commit.
Also sets SUPPORTS_MESSAGE_EDITING = False on SignalAdapter so the
no-edit streaming path activates.
Tests: 40+ new tests in tests/gateway/test_signal_format.py covering
markdown conversion, UTF-16 offset correctness with non-BMP emoji,
bullet-list and URL false-positive regressions, reply-quote extraction,
and reaction payload shape. Regression extensions to test_signal.py.
The "cfg.get('X', {}).get('Y', default)" pattern appears 50+ times
across tools/, gateway/, and plugins/. Each call site manually handles
the same three gotchas:
1. Missing intermediate key → empty dict → chain works
2. Non-dict value at intermediate position → AttributeError
(uncaught in most sites, so a misconfigured YAML crashes the tool)
3. cfg is None → AttributeError
Introduces cfg_get(cfg, *keys, default=None) in hermes_cli/config.py
as the canonical helper. Handles all three uniformly, returns default
only when the final key is *absent* (matches dict.get semantics —
explicit None values are preserved, falsy values like 0 / False / ''
are preserved).
Named cfg_get rather than cfg_path to avoid shadowing the existing
'cfg_path = _hermes_home / "config.yaml"' local variable that appears
in gateway/run.py, cron/scheduler.py, hermes_cli/main.py, etc.
Migrated 20 call sites as the first-batch proof-of-value:
gateway/run.py 10 sites (agent/display subtrees)
tools/browser_tool.py 3 sites
tools/vision_tools.py 2 sites
tools/browser_camofox.py 1 site
tools/approval.py 1 site
tools/skills_tool.py 1 site
tools/skill_manager_tool.py 1 site
tools/credential_files.py 1 site
tools/env_passthrough.py 1 site
The remaining ~30 sites across plugins/ and smaller tool files can be
migrated opportunistically — the helper is now available and the
pattern is established.
Fixed a latent bug along the way: tools/vision_tools.py had its
cfg_get usage at line 560 inside a function that locally re-imports
'from hermes_cli.config import load_config', but the AST-based
migration script wrote the top-level cfg_get import to a different
function scope, leaving line 560's cfg_get as a NameError silently
swallowed by the surrounding try/except. Test
test_vision_uses_configured_temperature_and_timeout caught it. Fixed
by including cfg_get in the function-local import.
Verified:
- 7880/7893 tests/tools/ + tests/gateway/ + tests/hermes_cli/test_config
tests pass; all 13 failures pre-existing on main (MCP, delegate,
session_split_brain — verified earlier in the sweep).
- All 20 migrated sites AST-verified to have cfg_get in scope (either
module-level or function-local).
- Live 'hermes chat' smoke: 2 turns + /model switch + tool calls +
/quit, zero errors. Agent correctly counted 20 cfg_get hits across
8 tool files — matching the migration.
Semantic parity verified against the original pattern across 8 edge
cases (missing keys, None values, falsy values, empty strings, string
instead of dict, None cfg, nested levels).
Add opt-in terminal.docker_run_as_host_user config flag that passes
--user $(id -u):$(id -g) to the Docker backend so files written into
bind-mounted directories (/workspace, /root, docker_volumes entries) are
owned by the host user instead of root.
When enabled on POSIX platforms, also drops SETUID/SETGID caps since the
container no longer needs gosu/su to switch users. Falls back cleanly on
platforms without os.getuid (e.g. native Windows Docker) with a warning.
Wired through all three config.yaml -> TERMINAL_* env-var bridges:
- cli.py env_mappings (CLI + TUI startup)
- gateway/run.py _terminal_env_map (gateway / messaging platforms)
- hermes_cli/config.py _config_to_env_sync (`hermes config set`)
Also fixes docker_mount_cwd_to_workspace silently failing in gateway
mode -- it was missing from gateway/run.py's _terminal_env_map.
Adds tests/tools/test_terminal_config_env_sync.py to guard against
future drift between the three bridges (same bug class shipped twice
in one month).
Bundled Hermes image won't work with this flag since its entrypoint
expects to start as root for the usermod/gosu hermes flow; works with
the default nikolaik/python-nodejs image and plain Debian/Ubuntu.
Long-running gateways need the curator to fire on cadence without
restarts. Piggy-back on the existing cron ticker thread (which already
runs image/document cache cleanup every hour on the same pattern)
instead of spawning a dedicated timer thread.
- New CURATOR_EVERY = 60 ticks (poll hourly at default 60s interval).
The inner config.interval_hours gate controls the real cadence, so
60 of these 60 hourly pokes are cheap no-ops and one runs the review.
- Removed the boot-time call added in the prior commit — the ticker
covers boot + every hour thereafter. Avoids double-running.
Handles the weekly-default-on-24/7-gateway gap flagged in review.
Adds the Curator — an auxiliary-model background task that periodically
reviews AGENT-CREATED skills and keeps the collection tidy: tracks usage,
transitions unused skills through active → stale → archived, and spawns
a forked AIAgent to consolidate overlaps and patch drift.
Default: enabled, inactivity-triggered (no cron daemon). Runs on CLI
startup and gateway boot when the last run is older than interval_hours
(default 24) AND the agent has been idle for min_idle_hours (default 2).
Invariants (all load-bearing):
- Never touches bundled or hub-installed skills (.bundled_manifest +
.hub/lock.json double-filter)
- Never auto-deletes — archive only. Archives are recoverable
via `hermes curator restore <skill>`
- Pinned skills bypass all auto-transitions
- Uses the aux client; never touches the main session's prompt cache
New files:
- tools/skill_usage.py — sidecar .usage.json telemetry, atomic writes,
provenance filter
- agent/curator.py — orchestrator: config, idle gating, state-machine
transitions (pure, no LLM), forked-agent review prompt
- hermes_cli/curator.py — `hermes curator {status,run,pause,resume,
pin,unpin,restore}` subcommand
- tests/tools/test_skill_usage.py — 29 tests
- tests/agent/test_curator.py — 25 tests
Modified files (surgical patches):
- tools/skills_tool.py — bump view_count on successful skill_view
- tools/skill_manager_tool.py — bump patch_count on skill_manage
patch/edit/write_file/remove_file; forget record on delete
- hermes_cli/config.py — add curator: section to DEFAULT_CONFIG
- hermes_cli/commands.py — add /curator CommandDef with subcommands
- hermes_cli/main.py — register `hermes curator` subparser via
register_cli() from hermes_cli.curator
- cli.py — /curator slash-command dispatch + startup hook
- gateway/run.py — gateway-boot hook (mirrors CLI)
Validation:
- 54 new tests across skill_usage + curator, all passing in 3s
- 346 tests across all touched files' neighbors green
- 2783 tests across hermes_cli/ + gateway/test_run_progress_topics.py green
- CLI smoke: `hermes curator status/pause/resume` work end-to-end
Companion to PR #16026 (class-first skill review prompt) — together
they form a loop: the review prompt stops near-duplicate skill creation
at the source, and the curator prunes/consolidates what still accumulates.
Refs #7816.
Commit 3c42064e made config.yaml the single source of truth for
TERMINAL_CWD, but the config bridge passes cwd values verbatim to
os.environ. When a user sets terminal.cwd: ~/ in config.yaml, the
literal string '~/'' reaches subprocess.Popen, which the kernel
rejects because it does not expand shell tilde syntax.
This patch adds three defensive layers:
1. gateway/run.py — expanduser at config bridge time so TERMINAL_CWD
is always an absolute path.
2. tools/terminal_tool.py — expanduser when reading TERMINAL_CWD in
_get_env_config(), guarding against stale or manually-set env vars.
3. tools/environments/local.py — expanduser in LocalEnvironment before
passing cwd to subprocess.Popen, the final safety net.
Includes regression tests in test_config_cwd_bridge.py for nested
terminal.cwd, top-level cwd alias, and precedence ordering.
Refs: 3c42064e
After PR #7885 (97b0cd51e) added content-side segment breaks for
natural mid-turn assistant messages, the tool-progress task in
gateway/run.py was not updated to match. progress_msg_id and
progress_lines persisted for the whole run, so after a tool batch
produced bubble B1 followed by content bubble C1, the next tool.started
kept editing the OLD bubble B1 above C1 — making the chat appear out
of order on Telegram, Discord, and Slack.
Add on_new_message callback to GatewayStreamConsumer, fired at the
four sites where a fresh content bubble lands on the platform:
- _send_or_edit first-send branch (NOT edits)
- _send_commentary
- _send_new_chunk (overflow split)
- each successful chunk of _send_fallback_final
Gateway supplies a lambda that enqueues ('__reset__',) into the
progress_queue. send_progress_messages() handles the marker in both
the main loop and the CancelledError drain path, clearing
progress_msg_id, progress_lines, and the dedup state so the next
tool.started opens a fresh bubble below the new content.
Result: each tool batch appears in chronological order below the
preceding content. When no content appears between tool batches,
tools still group in one bubble (CLI-style compactness).

BOOT.md was merged in PR #3733 before the feature was ready — the
built-in hook spawned a bare AIAgent() with no model/runtime kwargs,
which immediately 401s on any provider with a custom endpoint. Three
separate community PRs (#5240, #12514, #14992) tried to paper over it.
Remove the BOOT.md hook entirely and its user-facing docs/tips. Keep
the gateway/builtin_hooks/ package and the HookRegistry._register_builtin_hooks()
hook-point intact as the extension surface for future always-on
gateway hooks.
Closes#5239.

* perf(startup): lazy-import OpenAI, Anthropic, Firecrawl, account_usage
Four heavy SDK/module imports are now deferred off the hot startup path.
Net savings on cold module imports:
cli 1200 → 958 ms (-242)
run_agent 1220 → 901 ms (-319)
tools.web_tools 711 → 423 ms (-288)
agent.anthropic_adapter 230 → 15 ms (-215)
agent.auxiliary_client 253 → 68 ms (-185)
Four independent changes in one PR since they all use the same pattern
and share the same risk profile (heavy SDK import → lazy proxy or
function-local import):
1. tools/web_tools.py:
'from firecrawl import Firecrawl' moved into _get_firecrawl_client(),
which is only called when backend='firecrawl'. Users on Exa/Tavily/
Parallel pay zero firecrawl cost.
2. cli.py + gateway/run.py:
'from agent.account_usage import ...' moved into the /limits handlers.
account_usage transitively pulls the OpenAI SDK chain; only needed
when the user runs /limits.
3. agent/anthropic_adapter.py:
'try: import anthropic as _anthropic_sdk' replaced with a cached
'_get_anthropic_sdk()' accessor. The three usage sites
(build_anthropic_client, build_anthropic_bedrock_client,
read_claude_code_credentials_from_keychain) now resolve via the
accessor. All pre-existing test patches of
'agent.anthropic_adapter._anthropic_sdk' keep working because the
accessor respects any value already in module globals.
4. agent/auxiliary_client.py AND run_agent.py:
'from openai import OpenAI' replaced with an '_OpenAIProxy()' module-
level object that looks like the OpenAI class but imports the SDK on
first call/isinstance check. This preserves:
- 15+ in-module OpenAI(...) construction sites in auxiliary_client
and the single site in run_agent's _create_openai_client (Python's
function-scope name lookup finds the proxy, forwards the call);
- 'patch("agent.auxiliary_client.OpenAI", ...)' and
'patch("run_agent.OpenAI", ...)' test patterns used by 28+ test
files (patch replaces the module attribute as usual).
Tried two alternatives first:
- 'from openai._client import OpenAI' — doesn't skip openai/__init__.py
(the audit's hypothesis here was wrong).
- Module-level __getattr__ — works for external access but Python
function-scope name resolution skips __getattr__, so in-module
OpenAI(...) calls NameError.
Note: 'openai' still loads on 'import cli' because
cli.py -> neuter_async_httpx_del() -> openai._base_client, and
run_agent.py -> code_execution_tool.py (module-level
build_execute_code_schema) -> _load_config() -> 'from cli import
CLI_CONFIG'. Deferring those is a separate, larger change — out of scope
for this PR. The savings above all come from avoiding the openai/*,
anthropic/*, and firecrawl/* top-level type-tree imports on paths that
don't need them.
Verified:
- 302/302 tests in tests/agent/{test_anthropic_adapter,
test_bedrock_1m_context, test_minimax_provider, test_anthropic_keychain}
pass. Two pre-existing failures on main unchanged.
- 106/106 tests/agent/test_auxiliary_client.py pass (1 pre-existing fail).
- 97/97 tests/run_agent/test_create_openai_client_kwargs_isolation.py,
test_plugin_context_engine_init.py, test_invalid_context_length_warning.py,
test_api_max_retries_config.py,
tests/hermes_cli/test_gemini_provider.py, test_ollama_cloud_provider.py
pass (1 pre-existing fail).
- Live hermes chat smoke: 2 turns + /model switch + tool calls, zero
errors in the 57-line agent.log window.
- Module-level import of run_agent + auxiliary_client + anthropic_adapter
no longer pulls 'anthropic' or 'firecrawl' at all.
* fix(gateway): restore top-level account_usage import for test-patch surface
CI caught two failures in tests/gateway/test_usage_command.py that I
missed locally:
AttributeError: 'module' object at gateway.run has no attribute 'fetch_account_usage'
The test uses monkeypatch.setattr('gateway.run.fetch_account_usage', ...)
to inject a fake account-fetch call. Moving the import inside the
handler deleted that module-level attribute, breaking the patch surface.
Restoring the top-level import in gateway/run.py gives up the ~230 ms
gateway-boot savings from that one lazy, but:
1. the gateway is a long-running daemon — boot cost is paid once per
install, not per turn;
2. the other four lazy-imports (firecrawl, openai, anthropic, cli's
account_usage) remain in place and still account for the bulk of
the savings reported in the PR body;
3. preserving the patch surface keeps the established
'gateway.run.fetch_account_usage' monkeypatch pattern working
without touching tests.
Verified: tests/gateway/test_usage_command.py — 8 passed, 0 failed.
Full targeted sweep (2336 tests across agent/gateway/hermes_cli/run_agent):
2332 passed, 4 failed — all 4 pre-existing on main.

load_config() and read_raw_config() now cache their result keyed on
the config file's (mtime_ns, size). On cache hit they return a deepcopy
of the cached value, skipping yaml.safe_load + deep-merge + normalize +
env-var expansion entirely. save_config() + migrate_config() write via
atomic_yaml_write which produces a fresh inode, so stat() sees a new
mtime_ns and the next load repopulates automatically — no explicit
invalidation hook needed.
Measured per-call cost:
load_config() cold: 13.3 ms
load_config() cached: 0.23 ms (57x faster)
read_raw_config() cached: 0.13 ms
A single gateway turn hits the config 5-15 times (session context,
auxiliary client resolution, memory config, plugin hooks, approval
lookups, per-tool settings). That's 65-200 ms/turn of pure YAML
re-parsing on main. After this change: 1-3 ms/turn.
Also migrates gateway/run.py's 6 direct yaml.safe_load(config.yaml)
call sites through _load_gateway_config, which now shares the
read_raw_config cache when _hermes_home agrees with the canonical
config path. The direct-read fallback is retained for tests that
monkeypatch gateway_run._hermes_home without touching HERMES_HOME.
Safety:
- load_config() returns a deepcopy on every call; the 67+ call sites
that mutate the result (cfg["model"]["default"] = ..., etc.) can't
corrupt the cache.
- save_config() / atomic_yaml_write bump mtime, naturally invalidating
the cache for the next reader.
- Cache is keyed on str(config_path), so HERMES_HOME profile switches
don't collide.
Verified:
- 112 config tests pass (test_config, test_config_env_expansion,
test_config_env_refs, test_config_drift, test_config_validation,
test_aux_config).
- 87 gateway tests pass (test_verbose_command, test_session_info,
test_compress_focus, test_runtime_footer, test_resume_command,
test_reasoning_command, test_approve_deny_commands,
test_run_progress_interrupt).
- Live hermes chat smoke — 2 turns + /model switch + tool calls,
zero errors in agent.log.

Discord's per-app command-management bucket is ~5 writes / 20 s. A
mass-prune-plus-upsert reconcile (77 orphans + 30 desired = 107 writes
in the reported case) can't finish under the old flat 30 s budget, and
the subsequent reconnect retries inside the rate-limit cooldown also
time out — leaving slash commands broken for ~60 min until the bucket
fully recovers.
Bump the timeout to 600 s so realistic bursts drain, update the warning
message to point at the saturated bucket instead of a hardcoded 30 s.
The 600 s cap still guards against a true hang.
Credit to @Tranquil-Flow for PR #16739 and @davidbordenwi for reporting

Append a compact 'model · 68% · ~/projects/hermes' footer to the FINAL
message of each turn, disabled by default (display.runtime_footer.enabled).
Answers the Telegram-side parity ask: runtime context that the CLI status
bar already shows is now available in messaging replies when enabled.
Wiring:
- gateway/runtime_footer.py: resolve_footer_config + format_runtime_footer +
build_footer_line. Pure-function renderer; per-platform overrides under
display.platforms.<platform>.runtime_footer.
- gateway/run.py: appends footer to response right after reasoning prepend
so it lands only on the final message (never tool progress or streaming
chunks). When streaming already delivered the body (already_sent), the
footer is sent as a small trailing message instead.
- agent_result now exposes context_length alongside last_prompt_tokens so
the footer can compute the pct; both gateway return paths updated.
- /footer [on|off|status] slash command, wired in CLI (cli.py) and gateway
(gateway/run.py both running-agent bypass and main dispatch). Global
toggle only; per-platform overrides via config.yaml.
Graceful degradation:
- Missing context_length (unknown model) → pct field silently dropped
(no '?%' artifact).
- Empty final_response → no footer appended.
- Unknown field names in config → silently ignored.
Tests: 25-case unit suite (tests/gateway/test_runtime_footer.py) plus E2E
harness covering streaming vs non-streaming branches, per-platform override,
and the exact argument contract gateway/run.py uses.

Mechanical cleanup across 43 files — removes 46 unused imports
(F401) and 14 unused local variables (F841) detected by
`ruff check --select F401,F841`. Net: -49 lines.
Also fixes a latent NameError in rl_cli.py where `get_hermes_home()`
was called at module line 32 before its import at line 65 — the
module never imported successfully on main. The ruff audit surfaced
this because it correctly saw the symbol as imported-but-unused
(the call happened before the import ran); the fix moves the import
to the top of the file alongside other stdlib imports.
One `# noqa: F401` kept in hermes_cli/status.py for `subprocess`:
tests monkeypatch `hermes_cli.status.subprocess` as a regression
guard that systemctl isn't called on Termux, so the name must
exist at module scope even though the module body doesn't reference
it. Docstring explains the reason.
Also fixes an invalid `# noqa:` directive in
gateway/platforms/discord.py:308 that lacked a rule code.

The gateway caches one AIAgent per session to preserve prompt-cache hits,
keyed by _agent_config_signature(). The signature previously only
fingerprinted model/credentials/toolsets/ephemeral-prompt — NOT the
compression or context_length config. As a result, users who edited
model.context_length or compression.threshold in config.yaml on a
long-lived gateway saw no effect until they triggered an unrelated
cache eviction (/model switch, /reset, gateway restart).
Add a new cache_keys parameter to _agent_config_signature and a
_CACHE_BUSTING_CONFIG_KEYS registry listing config values the agent
bakes in at construction time. Call sites read the current config and
pass it through — next gateway message with an edited config
rebuilds the agent.
Keys registered:
- model.context_length
- compression.enabled
- compression.threshold
- compression.target_ratio
- compression.protect_last_n
Reported by @OP (Apr 26 feedback bundle).
## Changes
- gateway/run.py: new _CACHE_BUSTING_CONFIG_KEYS tuple,
_extract_cache_busting_config classmethod, cache_keys kwarg on
_agent_config_signature, call site passes the extracted dict
- tests/gateway/test_agent_cache.py: 11 new tests
(5 on _agent_config_signature behavior, 6 on _extract_cache_busting_config)

Network errors through proxies (e.g. sing-box) can leave httpx
connections in a half-closed state occupying pool slots. After enough
reconnect cycles the 256-connection default fills up entirely, causing
Pool timeout: All connections in the connection pool are occupied.
Fix: cycle only the getUpdates request object (_request[0]) via
shut-down + re-initialize before restarting polling. This drains stale
connections without touching the general request (_request[1]) that
concurrent send_message / edit_message calls rely on.
The drain is applied to both _handle_polling_network_error and
_handle_polling_conflict reconnect paths via a shared
_drain_polling_connections() helper. Failures in the drain are
swallowed so reconnect always proceeds.
Based on #16466 by @Mirac1eSky.
The gateway session-hygiene pre-compression safety valve had a hardcoded
400-message threshold. On long-lived sessions with short turns this was
either too high (users with aggressive compression preferences) or too
low (users with very large context models who want to keep more history
in-flight).
Add compression.hygiene_hard_message_limit (default 400) so it can be
tuned without forking the gateway.
Reported by @OP (Apr 26 feedback bundle).
## Changes
- hermes_cli/config.py: new DEFAULT_CONFIG key with 400 default
- gateway/run.py: read compression.hygiene_hard_message_limit at
hygiene-time, fall back to 400 if missing/invalid
- tests/gateway/test_session_hygiene.py: two tests — override fires at
the configured limit, default does not fire below 400

The rate-limit branch added by the original PR did sleep+continue with
no attempt to record the last error, so persistent iLink -2 responses
exhausted the retry loop and hit 'assert last_error is not None',
raising AssertionError instead of a descriptive RuntimeError.
Record last_error = RuntimeError(...) before continuing, and break out
of the loop on the final attempt instead of sleeping uselessly.
- Change MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH from 4000 to 2000 to match Weixin iLink API limit
- Add RATE_LIMIT_ERRCODE = -2 handling with 3x backoff retry
- Increase default send_chunk_delay_seconds from 0.35 to 1.5 to avoid rate limits
- Increase default send_chunk_retries from 2 to 4 for better reliability
- Use _split_text() in send() to chunk long messages before delivery
Fixes#16411
Follow-up to PR #16802 (BeliefanX). The original fix read
`agent_history[-1].get("timestamp")` for the tool-tail freshness gate,
but `gateway/run.py` strips the `timestamp` field off all tool/tool_call
rows when building `agent_history` from the raw transcript (see
`clean_msg = {k: v for k, v in msg.items() if k != "timestamp"}`). At
runtime the tool-tail branch always saw `None` and silently took the
legacy-fresh path — the stale-guard never fired for the tool-tail case
it was supposed to cover.
Changes:
- Read the freshness signal from the RAW `history` list (via new
`_last_transcript_timestamp()` helper) BEFORE the strip. Both the
resume_pending branch and the tool-tail branch use this single signal,
replacing the two divergent ones.
- Default window bumped 15 min → 1 hour via new
`_AUTO_CONTINUE_FRESHNESS_SECS_DEFAULT`. The 15-minute default was
shorter than the default `gateway_timeout` of 30 min, so a legitimate
long-running turn interrupted near its timeout boundary and resumed
shortly after would have been misclassified as stale.
- Configurable via `config.yaml` `agent.gateway_auto_continue_freshness`
(bridged to `HERMES_AUTO_CONTINUE_FRESHNESS` at gateway startup — same
pattern as `gateway_timeout`). Set to 0 to disable the gate.
- `_coerce_gateway_timestamp` now explicitly rejects bool (which is a
subclass of int and would otherwise coerce to 0.0/1.0).
- Tests rewritten to exercise the real production data shape: raw
`history` → `_build_agent_history` strip → freshness decision. A
regression guard (`test_stale_tool_tail_with_production_data_shape`)
asserts `agent_history` tool rows carry NO timestamp, protecting
against someone "fixing" the original bug by re-adding the stripped
field (which would break the OpenAI tool-result message contract).
Add BeliefanX to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
E2E verified: config.yaml → env var bridge → helper returns configured
value; default 1h window; malformed/empty env var falls back to default;
ISO-Z timestamps parse; ms-epoch coerced; bool rejected.
Extract the islink/realpath guard from the 16743 fix into a single
atomic_replace() helper in utils.py, then migrate every os.replace()
call site in the codebase to use it.
The original PR #16777 correctly identified and fixed the bug, but
only patched 9 of ~24 call sites. The same bug class (managed
deployments that symlink state files silently losing the link on
every write) still existed at auth.json, sessions file, gateway
config, env_loader, webhook subscriptions, debug store, model
catalog, pairing, google OAuth, nous rate guard, and more.
Rather than add another 10+ copies of the same three-line guard,
consolidate into atomic_replace(tmp, target) which:
- resolves symlinks via os.path.realpath before os.replace
- returns the resolved real path so callers can re-apply permissions
- is a drop-in replacement for os.replace at the use sites
Changes:
- utils.py: new atomic_replace() helper + atomic_json_write /
atomic_yaml_write now call it instead of inlining the guard
- 16 files: all os.replace() call sites migrated to atomic_replace()
- agent/{google_oauth, nous_rate_guard, shell_hooks}.py
- cron/jobs.py
- gateway/{pairing, session, platforms/telegram}.py
- hermes_cli/{auth, config, debug, env_loader, model_catalog, webhook}.py
- tools/{memory_tool, skill_manager_tool, skills_sync}.py
Tests: tests/test_atomic_replace_symlinks.py pins the invariant for
atomic_replace + atomic_json_write + atomic_yaml_write, covers plain
files, first-time creates, broken symlinks, and permission preservation.

The mention_user_id injection from #38a6bada9 unconditionally attached an
@user:server mention pill + MSC3952 m.mentions.user_ids payload to every
outbound reply and every tool-progress status update. The stated intent
was push notifications in muted rooms, but shipped as always-on in every
room, DM or group, muted or not — so every reply pinged the user.
- gateway/platforms/base.py: stop injecting mention_user_id into send
metadata on every reply; restore the original _thread_metadata passthrough.
- gateway/run.py: drop mention_user_id from status-thread metadata.
- gateway/platforms/matrix.py: drop the mention-pill append block in
_send_text that consumed the metadata. Keep the reaction-based exec
approval half of #38a6bada9 and the inbound/outbound m.mentions
handling (unrelated to the per-reply ping).

Narrow plaintext shortcut that rewrites a tiny set of admin phrases
("restart gateway", "restart the gateway", "restart hermes") into the
/restart slash command, but only in DMs. Scope is intentionally tight:
- DM text messages only — group chats keep natural-language semantics
- Exact restart-style phrases only
- Skips anything already starting with "/"
Without this, the LLM can receive "restart gateway" as a user turn and
try to satisfy it via the terminal tool (systemctl restart ...). That
kills the gateway while the originating agent is still running, which
leaves systemd in "draining" state waiting on a process it's about to
kill. Routing the phrase to the slash-command dispatcher bypasses the
agent loop and uses the existing restart machinery (request_restart).
Called once, at the adapter level in BasePlatformAdapter.handle_message,
so every platform gets it for free and pending-message reinjection is
covered by the same call site.
Adds 2 Telegram-parametrized e2e tests: DM routes to request_restart,
group chats fall through to the normal agent path.
model_tools.py ran discover_mcp_tools() as a module-level side effect.
discover_mcp_tools() uses a blocking 120s wait internally (via
_run_on_mcp_loop -> future.result(timeout=120)).
The gateway lazy-imports run_agent -> model_tools on the first user
message, which happens inside the asyncio event loop thread. A slow or
unreachable MCP server therefore froze Discord shard heartbeats and
Telegram polling for up to 120s on the first message after gateway
start.
Fix: remove the module-level call. Every entry point now runs
discovery explicitly at its own startup, using the context-appropriate
blocking/non-blocking pattern:
- gateway/run.py: loop.run_in_executor(None, discover_mcp_tools)
before platforms start accepting traffic
- hermes_cli/main.py: inline (no event loop at CLI startup)
- tui_gateway/entry.py: inline (sync stdin loop, no event loop)
- acp_adapter/entry.py: inline before asyncio.run()
Closes#16856.
_handle_set_home_command wrote FEISHU_HOME_CHANNEL / DISCORD_HOME_CHANNEL /
etc. as top-level keys into config.yaml, but load_gateway_config() only
reads home channels from env vars. After every gateway restart the home
channel was lost — on every platform, not just Feishu.
Fix: switch /sethome to save_env_value(), which atomically writes to
~/.hermes/.env and updates the current process env in one shot. The
handler builds the env key from platform_name.upper(), so one line
change repairs /sethome for every platform that has a HOME_CHANNEL
env var.
Also widen _EXTRA_ENV_KEYS in hermes_cli/config.py so HOME_CHANNEL and
HOME_CHANNEL_NAME for every platform are treated as managed env vars:
SIGNAL, SLACK, SMS, DINGTALK, BLUEBUBBLES, FEISHU, WECOM, YUANBAO, plus
the missing *_NAME variants for DISCORD/TELEGRAM/MATTERMOST.

Without this, every Matrix bot started under hermes-agent shows the
"Encrypted by a device not verified by its owner" badge in Element
indefinitely, because the cross-signing chain (master → SSK → device)
was never published. Operators currently have to write their own
bootstrap script and remember to run it once per bot — and it's easy
to get wrong (the obvious base64.b64encode().decode() produces padded
keyids that matrix-rust-sdk silently rejects in /keys/query, so even
correctly-signed keys fail to load identity in Element).
mautrix already has the right primitive: generate_recovery_key() does
the full flow — generate seeds, upload privates to SSSS, publish
publics to the homeserver, sign the current device with the new SSK,
and return the human-readable recovery key. We invoke it once on
startup if the bot has no existing cross-signing identity, and log
the recovery key with a clear instruction to save it for future
restarts via MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY (which the existing recovery-key
path already consumes).
Skipped when MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY is set (existing path takes over)
or when the bot already has cross-signing keys on the homeserver
(get_own_cross_signing_public_keys returns non-None).
Bootstrap failure is non-fatal — logged with hint about UIA; the bot
continues without cross-signing and Element will show the warning
that prompted this PR. That matches the existing soft-fail pattern
for verify_with_recovery_key.
Tested against Continuwuity 0.5.7 (no UIA required). Synapse with
UIA enabled will need a follow-up PR to thread MATRIX_PASSWORD
through to /keys/device_signing/upload.
Five ``except Exception as exc:`` blocks in the Matrix adapter logged
only ``str(exc)`` without ``exc_info=True``:
- _reverify_keys_after_upload → post-upload key verification failure
- _upload_keys_if_needed → initial device-key query failure
- _upload_keys_if_needed → re-upload device keys failure
- _upload_keys_if_needed → initial device key upload failure
- connect → whoami / access-token validation failure
The E2EE key paths here are security-critical: a silent traceback-
less failure during device-key verification or upload makes it
hard for operators to tell whether their Matrix bot is failing
because of a stale token, a federation timeout, or an olm state
mismatch — all three fail with different tracebacks, which
``str(exc)`` alone flattens.
The contributing guide asks for ``exc_info=True`` on error logs.
Append it to each of the five call sites. Pure logging enrichment.
- Wrap _sync_loop sync() call with asyncio.wait_for(timeout=45s) to guard
against TCP-level hangs that the Matrix long-poll timeout cannot catch
- Add logger.debug at the top of _on_room_message so LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG
confirms whether callbacks fire at all (diagnoses #5819, #7914, #12614)
- Add logger.debug when MATRIX_REQUIRE_MENTION silently drops a message,
pointing users to the env var to disable the filter
Adapted for current mautrix-python adapter (PR was written against the
legacy matrix-nio adapter).
Closes#5819
A misconfigured auxiliary.compression.model is a user-fixable problem that silent recovery would hide. The previous retry-on-main logic transparently swallowed aux-model failures whenever the fallback succeeded, leaving the user's broken config in place and racking up future failures.
Track the aux-model failure on the compressor alongside the existing fallback-placeholder fields:
- _last_aux_model_failure_model: str | None
- _last_aux_model_failure_error: str | None
Both are set at the moment the aux model errors (captured before summary_model is cleared for retry), regardless of whether the retry succeeds. Cleared at compress() start and on on_session_reset() so a clean run doesn't leak stale warnings.
Surface at three places:
- gateway hygiene auto-compress: ℹ note to the platform adapter (thread_id preserved)
- gateway /compress command: ℹ line appended to the reply
- CLI via _emit_warning: deduped on (model, error) so repeat compactions don't spam
Distinct from the existing ⚠️ dropped-turns warning — different severity, different emoji, explicit 'context is intact' reassurance.
Address review feedback on PR #16333:
1. The hygiene-path warning send was missing metadata=_hyg_meta. On
Telegram topics / Slack threads / Discord threads the warning would
land in the main channel instead of the originating thread. Now
reuses the same _hyg_meta dict already computed for the hygiene
compaction itself.
2. New gateway-level test
test_session_hygiene_warns_user_when_summary_generation_fails
verifies end-to-end:
- When the compressor's _last_summary_fallback_used flag is True,
the gateway invokes adapter.send() exactly once.
- The warning message includes the dropped count and the underlying
error string.
- metadata={'thread_id': ...} is propagated so the warning lands
in the originating topic/thread.
Tests: 20 gateway hygiene + 54 context_compressor — all pass.
When auxiliary compression's summary LLM call fails (e.g. model 404,
auxiliary model misconfigured), the compressor still drops the selected
turns and inserts a static fallback placeholder — the dropped context
is unrecoverable.
Previously the only signal of this was a WARNING in agent.log. Gateway
users (Telegram/Discord/etc.) had no way to know context was lost
because the existing _emit_warning path requires a status_callback,
and the gateway hygiene path uses a temporary _hyg_agent with
quiet_mode=True and no callback wired up.
Changes:
- ContextCompressor: track _last_summary_fallback_used and
_last_summary_dropped_count on each compress() call. Cleared at the
start of compress() and on session reset.
- gateway/run.py hygiene: after auto-compress, inspect the temp
agent's compressor; if fallback was used, send a visible ⚠️ warning
to the user via the platform adapter (TG/Discord/etc.) including
dropped count and the underlying error.
- gateway/run.py /compress: append the same warning to the manual
compress reply so users running /compress see the failure too.
Acceptance:
- Summary success: no user-visible warning (unchanged).
- Summary failure on gateway hygiene: user receives a TG/Discord
message with dropped count + error + remediation hint.
- Summary failure on /compress: warning appended to the command reply.
- CLI status_callback / _emit_warning path is untouched.
- Test coverage: two new tests verify the tracking fields are set on
failure and cleared on subsequent success.
The typing-indicator refresh loop in BasePlatformAdapter._keep_typing
awaited each send_typing call unconditionally. Each call is an HTTP
round-trip to the platform API (Telegram/Discord), normally ~100ms. When
the same network instability that causes upstream provider timeouts
(e.g. Anthropic capacity blips slowing first-token latency past the
120s stream-read timeout) also slows the platform typing API to
multi-second response times, the refresh loop stalls inside the await.
Platform-side typing expires at ~5s, so the bubble dies and stays dead
until the stuck send_typing call returns — right when the user most
needs the 'still working' signal and instead sees a bot that looks
dead, then asks 'wtf are you doing' which itself interrupts the
eventually-recovering turn.
Bound each send_typing with asyncio.wait_for (1.5s cap, derived from
interval so it's always below the 2s cadence). Slow calls get abandoned
so the next scheduled tick fires a fresh send_typing on schedule. As
long as any one of them reaches the platform within its ~5s
typing-expiry window, the bubble stays visible across the stall.
Also catches non-timeout send_typing exceptions (transient HTTP errors)
so one bad tick doesn't terminate the whole loop.
Tests: 4 new in tests/gateway/test_keep_typing_timeout.py covering
slow-send non-blocking, fast-send still-awaited, exception resilience,
and paused-chat regression guard.
Reviewer pushback on the original boundary-hardening commits — three
overreach points pulled plugin-specific policy into shared core paths:
1. gateway/run.py hardcoded a '## Honcho Context' literal split for
vision-LLM output. Plugin-format heading in framework code; could
truncate legitimate output naturally containing that header.
Drop the literal split; keep generic sanitize_context (the wrapper
strip is plugin-agnostic). Plugin-specific cleanup belongs at the
provider boundary, not the shared gateway path.
2. run_agent.run_conversation scrubbed user_message and
persist_user_message before the conversation loop. User text is
sacred — if a user types a literal <memory-context> tag we must
not silently delete it. The producer (build_memory_context_block)
is the only legitimate emitter; user input should never need the
reverse op.
3. _build_assistant_message scrubbed model output before persistence.
Same hazard: would silently mutate legitimate documentation/code
the model emits containing the literal markers. The streaming
scrubber catches real leaks delta-by-delta before content is
concatenated; persist-time scrub was redundant belt-and-suspenders.
4. _fire_stream_delta stripped leading newlines from every delta unless
a paragraph break flag was set. Mid-stream '\n' is legitimate
markdown — lists, code fences, paragraph breaks — and chunk
boundaries are arbitrary. Narrow lstrip to the very first delta
of the stream only (so stale provider preamble still gets cleaned
on turn start, but mid-stream formatting survives).
Plus: build_memory_context_block now logs a warning when its defensive
sanitize_context strips something — surfaces buggy providers returning
pre-wrapped text instead of silently double-fencing.
Net architectural change: scrub surface collapses from 8 sites to 3
(StreamingContextScrubber on output deltas, plugin→backend send,
build_memory_context_block input-validation). Plugin-specific strings
stay out of shared runtime paths. User input and persisted assistant
output are no longer mutated.
Tests: rescoped TestMemoryContextSanitization (helper-correctness only,
no source-inspection of removed call sites), updated vision tests to
drop '## Honcho Context' literal-split assertions, updated
_build_assistant_message persistence test to assert preservation.
Added: cross-turn scrubber reset, build_memory_context_block warn-on-
violation, mid-stream newline preservation (plain + code fence).
fixes#5719
The auxiliary vision LLM called by gateway._enrich_message_with_vision
can echo its injected Honcho system prompt back into the image
description. That description gets embedded verbatim into the enriched
user message, so recalled memory (personal facts, dialectic output)
surfaces into a user-visible bubble.
Strips both forms of leak before embedding:
- <memory-context>...</memory-context> fenced blocks (sanitize_context)
- trailing '## Honcho Context' sections (header + everything after)
Plus regression tests:
- tests/agent/test_streaming_context_scrubber.py — 13 tests on the
stateful scrubber (whole block, split tags, false-positive partial
tags, unterminated span, reset, case-insensitivity)
- tests/run_agent/test_run_agent_codex_responses.py — 2 new tests on
_fire_stream_delta covering the realistic 7-chunk leak scenario and
the cross-turn scrubber reset
- tests/gateway/test_vision_memory_leak.py — 4 tests covering the
vision auto-analysis boundary (clean pass-through, '## Honcho Context'
header, fenced block, both patterns together)
Handle queued-title ValueError cleanup during session init, harden Discord message source building for test stubs, and fix the Dockerfile contract test syntax error. Also refresh the TUI lockfile and Nix build flags so nix ubuntu-latest no longer fails on npm lock/peer resolution drift.
* fix: clean gateway auxiliary client caches on teardown
* fix(gateway): recover from stale pid files and close cron agents
Two issues were keeping the gateway from surviving long runs:
1. `_cleanup_invalid_pid_path` delegated to `remove_pid_file`, which
refuses to unlink when the file's pid differs from our own. That
safety check exists for the --replace atexit handoff, but it also
applied to stale-record cleanup, so after a crashy exit the pid
file was orphaned: `write_pid_file()`'s O_EXCL create then failed
with `FileExistsError`, and systemd looped on "PID file race lost
to another gateway instance". Unlink unconditionally from this
helper since the caller has already verified the record is dead.
2. The cron scheduler never closed the ephemeral `AIAgent` it creates
per tick, and never swept the process-global auxiliary-client
cache. Over days of 10-minute ticks this leaked subprocesses and
async httpx transports until the gateway hit EMFILE. Release the
agent and call `cleanup_stale_async_clients()` in `run_job`'s
outer `finally`, matching the gateway's own per-turn cleanup.

``_cleanup_agent_resources`` previously invoked
``agent.shutdown_memory_provider()`` with no arguments, so every memory
provider's ``on_session_end`` hook received an empty list. Providers
with an early-return guard on empty input (Holographic, Hindsight) never
extracted facts from the conversation, and users hit
"抱歉，找不到相關的對話記錄" on the first turn after any gateway
restart, session reset, or idle expiry.
Forward ``agent._session_messages`` — the transcript the agent itself
maintains and refreshes every turn via ``_persist_session`` — so
providers see the actual conversation. Falls back to the legacy no-arg
call whenever the attribute is absent or not a list (test stubs built
via ``object.__new__`` or ``MagicMock``) to preserve backward
compatibility with existing suites. ``AIAgent.shutdown_memory_provider``
already accepts ``messages: list = None`` (run_agent.py:4126), so this
is a pure caller-side fix.
Paths that use ``skip_memory=True`` temporary agents (memory flush,
hygiene auto-compress, ``/compress``) are no-ops inside
``shutdown_memory_provider`` because ``self._memory_manager`` is None —
no behaviour change for them.
Covers Part A of the bug report. Part B (adding ``on_session_end`` to
the Hindsight plugin) is a separate concern that would benefit from
this fix landing first.
Regression test added at
``tests/gateway/test_shutdown_memory_provider_messages.py`` covering:
populated messages forwarded, empty list still forwarded, attribute
missing falls back, non-list (MagicMock) falls back, provider
exceptions don't block ``close()``, None agent no-op, and agent
without ``shutdown_memory_provider`` tolerated.

* feat(image-input): native multimodal routing based on model vision capability
Attach user-sent images as OpenAI-style content parts on the user turn when
the active model supports native vision, so vision-capable models see real
pixels instead of a lossy text description from vision_analyze.
Routing decision (agent/image_routing.py::decide_image_input_mode):
agent.image_input_mode = auto | native | text (default: auto)
In auto mode:
- If auxiliary.vision.provider/model is explicitly configured, keep the
text pipeline (user paid for a dedicated vision backend).
- Else if models.dev reports supports_vision=True for the active
provider/model, attach natively.
- Else fall back to text (current behaviour).
Call sites updated: gateway/run.py (all messaging platforms), tui_gateway
(dashboard/Ink), cli.py (interactive /attach + drag-drop).
run_agent.py changes:
- _prepare_anthropic_messages_for_api now passes image parts through
unchanged when the model supports vision — the Anthropic adapter
translates them to native image blocks. Previous behaviour
(vision_analyze → text) only runs for non-vision Anthropic models.
- New _prepare_messages_for_non_vision_model mirrors the same contract
for chat.completions and codex_responses paths, so non-vision models
on any provider get text-fallback instead of failing at the provider.
- New _model_supports_vision() helper reads models.dev caps.
vision_analyze description rewritten: positions it as a tool for images
NOT already visible in the conversation (URLs, tool output, deeper
inspection). Prevents the model from redundantly calling it on images
already attached natively.
Config default: agent.image_input_mode = auto.
Tests: 35 new (test_image_routing.py + test_vision_aware_preprocessing.py),
all existing tests that reference _prepare_anthropic_messages_for_api
still pass (198 targeted + new tests green).
* feat(image-input): size-cap + resize oversized images, charge image tokens in compressor
Two follow-ups that make the native image routing safer for long / heavy
sessions:
1) Oversize handling in build_native_content_parts:
- 20 MB ceiling per image (matches vision_tools._MAX_BASE64_BYTES,
the most restrictive provider — Gemini inline data).
- Delegates to vision_tools._resize_image_for_vision (Pillow-based,
already battle-tested) to downscale to 5 MB first-try.
- If Pillow is missing or resize still overshoots, the image is
dropped and reported back in skipped[]; caller falls back to text
enrichment for that image.
2) Image-token accounting in context_compressor:
- New _IMAGE_TOKEN_ESTIMATE = 1600 (matches Claude Code's constant;
within the realistic range for Anthropic/GPT-4o/Gemini billing).
- _content_length_for_budget() helper: sums text-part lengths and
charges _IMAGE_CHAR_EQUIVALENT (1600 * 4 chars) per image/image_url/
input_image part. Base64 payload inside image_url is NOT counted
as chars — dimensions don't matter, only image-presence.
- Both tail-cut sites (_prune_old_tool_results L527 and
_find_tail_cut_by_tokens L1126) now call the helper so multi-image
conversations don't slip past compression budget.
Tests: 9 new in test_image_routing.py (oversize triggers resize,
resize-fails-returns-None, oversize-skipped-reported), 11 new in
test_compressor_image_tokens.py (flat charge per image, multiple images,
Responses-API / Anthropic-native / OpenAI-chat shapes, no-inflation on
raw base64, bounds-check on the constant, integration test that an
image-heavy tail actually gets trimmed).
* fix(image-input): replace blanket 20MB ceiling with empirically-verified per-provider limits
The previous commit imposed a hardcoded 20 MB base64 ceiling on all
providers, triggering auto-resize on anything larger. This was wrong in
both directions:
* Too loose for Anthropic — actual limit is 5 MB (returns HTTP 400
'image exceeds 5 MB maximum' above that).
* Too strict for OpenAI / Codex / OpenRouter — accept 49 MB+ without
complaint (empirically verified April 2026 with progressive PNG
sizes).
New behaviour:
* _PROVIDER_BASE64_CEILING table: only anthropic and bedrock have a
ceiling (5 MB, since bedrock-on-Claude shares Anthropic's decoder).
* Providers NOT in the table get no ceiling — images attach at native
size and we trust the provider to return its own error if it
disagrees. A provider-specific 400 message is clearer than us
guessing wrong and silently degrading image quality.
* build_native_content_parts() gains a keyword-only provider arg;
gateway/CLI/TUI pass the active provider so Anthropic users get
auto-resize protection while OpenAI users don't pay it.
* Resize target dropped from 5 MB to 4 MB to slide safely under
Anthropic's boundary with header overhead.
Empirical measurements (direct API, no Hermes in the loop):
image b64 anthropic openrouter/gpt5.5 codex-oauth/gpt5.5
0.19 MB ✓ ✓ ✓
12.37 MB ✗ 400 5MB ✓ ✓
23.85 MB ✗ 400 5MB ✓ ✓
49.46 MB ✗ 413 ✓ ✓
Tests: rewrote TestOversizeHandling (5 tests): no-ceiling pass-through,
Anthropic resize fires, Anthropic skip on resize-fail, build_native_parts
routes ceiling by provider, unknown provider gets no ceiling. All 52
targeted tests pass.
* refactor(image-input): attempt native, shrink-and-retry on provider reject
Replace proactive per-provider size ceilings with a reactive shrink path
on the provider's actual rejection. All providers now attempt native
full-size attachment first; if the provider returns an image-too-large
error, the agent silently shrinks and retries once.
Why the previous design was wrong: hardcoding provider ceilings
(anthropic=5MB, others=unlimited) meant OpenAI users on a 10MB image
paid no tax, but Anthropic users lost quality on anything >5MB even
though the empirical behaviour at provider-reject time is the same
(shrink + retry). Baking the table into the routing layer also
requires updating Hermes every time a provider's limit changes.
Reactive design:
- image_routing.py: _file_to_data_url encodes native size, no ceiling.
build_native_content_parts drops its provider kwarg.
- error_classifier.py: new FailoverReason.image_too_large + pattern
match ("image exceeds", "image too large", etc.) checked BEFORE
context_overflow so Anthropic's 5MB rejection lands in the right
bucket.
- run_agent.py: new _try_shrink_image_parts_in_messages walks api
messages in-place, re-encodes oversized data: URL image parts
through vision_tools._resize_image_for_vision to fit under 4MB,
handles both chat.completions (dict image_url) and Responses
(string image_url) shapes, ignores http URLs (provider-fetched).
New image_shrink_retry_attempted flag in the retry loop fires the
shrink exactly once per turn after credential-pool recovery but
before auth retries.
E2E verified live against Anthropic claude-sonnet-4-6:
- 17.9MB PNG (23.9MB b64) attached at native size
- Anthropic returns 400 "image exceeds 5 MB maximum"
- Agent logs '📐 Image(s) exceeded provider size limit — shrank and
retrying...'
- Retry succeeds, correct response delivered in 6.8s total.
Tests: 12 new (8 shrink-helper shapes + 4 classifier signals),
replaces 5 proactive-ceiling tests with 3 simpler 'native attach works'
tests. 181 targeted tests pass. test_enum_members_exist in
test_error_classifier.py updated for the new enum value.
Previously 'hermes debug share' uploads only got DELETEd when the user
ran 'hermes debug share' again — opportunistic-sweep-on-invoke was the
only cleanup path. A user who uploaded once and never ran debug again
left pastes up until paste.rs's retention kicked in (which, empirically,
never actually expires them).
Hook _sweep_expired_pastes into the gateway cron ticker at the same
hourly cadence as the image/document cache cleanups. The opportunistic
sweep in 'hermes debug share' stays as a fallback for CLI-only users
who never start the gateway.
Telegram groups emit a single bot_command entity covering the whole
/cmd@botname span with no accompanying mention entity, so the existing
mention gate in _message_mentions_bot dropped slash commands sent via
the bot-menu autocomplete whenever require_mention is enabled.
Recognise bot_command entities whose @botname suffix matches the bot
username (case-insensitive) as a direct mention, and keep rejecting
commands addressed at other bots. Fixes#15415.
Harden the Matrix adapter's sender-drop guards so bot-self events and
appservice/bridge identities never reach the gateway's pairing flow or
the agent loop.
Two filters, applied as early as possible in _on_room_message (and
_on_reaction for the self-filter):
1. _is_self_sender(sender) — case-insensitive + whitespace-trimmed
equality with self._user_id. When self._user_id is still empty
(whoami has not resolved, or login failed), returns True
defensively: an unidentified bot dropping its own events is always
preferable to falling into an echo loop. The previous byte-for-byte
equality check let differently-cased copies of the bot's MXID slip
through, and an unresolved self-ID silently disabled the guard.
2. _is_system_or_bridge_sender(sender) — drops appservice namespace
puppets (conventional @_bridge_...:server form) and malformed
senders with an empty localpart. These identities used to fall
through to the gateway's unauthorized-user path, trigger a pairing
code, and — once an operator approved the bridge — every outbound
message the bridge relayed would loop back as an authorized user
message. This was the root of the 'hall of mirrors' symptom.

Closes#15775.
Title generation swallowed exceptions at debug level and returned None,
so a depleted auxiliary provider (e.g. OpenRouter 402) silently left
sessions with NULL titles. Reporter observed 45 untitled sessions
accumulated over 19 days with no user-visible indication.
- agent/title_generator.py: accept optional failure_callback, bump log
to WARNING, invoke callback on call_llm exception (swallowing callback
errors so nothing can crash the fire-and-forget worker thread).
- cli.py, gateway/run.py: pass agent._emit_auxiliary_failure as the
callback so failures route through the existing user-visible warning
channel.
- tests: cover callback fires / errors are swallowed / no-callback
legacy behavior / maybe_auto_title forwards kwarg to worker.
Follow-up on top of #16243. Two small tweaks:
- Compile the regex once as `_SAFE_IDENTIFIER_RE` and pin it to
`[A-Za-z0-9@.+\-]`. The previous `\w` accepts Unicode word chars
(full-width digits, accented letters) which aren't valid WhatsApp
identifiers and shouldn't reach the mapping-file lookup.
- Add a comment clarifying this is defense-in-depth, not a live
traversal. The hardcoded `lid-mapping-{current}{suffix}.json`
prefix already prevents escape via pathlib's component split —
with `current='../secrets'`, the first path component under
`session/` is the literal directory name `lid-mapping-..`,
which the attacker cannot create.
E2E verified: legit mapping chains still resolve, all probed attack
shapes (`../`, absolute paths, shell metacharacters, Unicode digit
tricks) are rejected before any file access.
expand_whatsapp_aliases() interpolated untrusted identifiers directly
into filenames (lid-mapping-{current}.json) without validation.
An identifier containing ../ or / could escape the session directory.
Also replaced bare except Exception: continue with targeted
(OSError, json.JSONDecodeError) and a debug log so mapping
corruption is diagnosable instead of silently skipped.
Fixes:
- Reject identifiers with unsafe characters via re.match guard
- Replace broad exception swallow with specific catch + debug log
Every working dir hermes ever touches gets its own shadow git repo under
~/.hermes/checkpoints/{sha256(abs_dir)[:16]}/. The per-repo _prune is a
no-op (comment in CheckpointManager._prune says so), so abandoned repos
from deleted/moved projects or one-off tmp dirs pile up forever. Field
reports put the typical offender at 1000+ repos / ~12 GB on active
contributor machines.
Adds an opt-in startup sweep that mirrors the sessions.auto_prune
pattern from #13861 / #16286:
- tools/checkpoint_manager.py: new prune_checkpoints() and
maybe_auto_prune_checkpoints() helpers. Deletes shadow repos that
are orphan (HERMES_WORKDIR marker points to a path that no longer
exists) or stale (newest in-repo mtime older than retention_days).
Idempotent via a CHECKPOINT_BASE/.last_prune marker file so it only
runs once per min_interval_hours regardless of how many hermes
processes start up.
- hermes_cli/config.py: new checkpoints.auto_prune /
retention_days / delete_orphans / min_interval_hours knobs.
Default auto_prune: false so users who rely on /rollback against
long-ago sessions never lose data silently.
- cli.py / gateway/run.py: startup hooks gated on checkpoints.auto_prune,
called right next to the existing state.db maintenance block.
- Docs updated with the new config knobs.
- 11 regression tests: orphan/stale deletion, precedence, byte-freed
tracking, non-shadow dir skip, interval gating, corrupt marker
recovery.
Refs #3015 (session-file disk growth was fixed in #16286; this covers
the checkpoint side noted out-of-scope there).
PR #16013 plugged the leak in `/new`, but two sibling session-boundary
resets had the same bug:
1. Inactivity / suspended-session auto-reset (top of `_handle_message`)
previously cleared only reasoning. Now drops model override and the
queued "/model switched" note as well.
2. Compression-exhaustion auto-reset now also drops the pending note
alongside the existing model/reasoning cleanup.
All three session-boundary sites now use the identical cleanup idiom.
When the gateway intercepts a pending /update prompt and the user sends
a recognized slash command (/new, /help, ...), the command now dispatches
normally AND the detached update subprocess is unblocked by writing a
blank .update_response. _gateway_prompt reads '' → strips → returns the
prompt's default (typically a safe 'n' / skip), so the update process
exits cleanly instead of blocking on stdin until the 30-minute watcher
timeout.
Also clears _update_prompt_pending[session_key] on this path so stray
future input for the same session isn't re-intercepted.
Extends PR #15849 with tests for the new cancel-write + a regression
test pinning the legacy behavior of unrecognized /foo slash commands
still being consumed as the response.
Slack Bolt posts are not editable like CLI spinners; medium-tier new still emitted a permanent line per tool start (issue #14663).
- Built-in slack default: off; other tier-2 platforms unchanged.
- Adjust /verbose isolation test for off to new cycle.
- Migration tests: read/write config.yaml as UTF-8 (Windows locale).
Previously, setting SLACK_BOT_TOKEN in .env would unconditionally enable
the Slack gateway adapter regardless of `slack.enabled: false` in config.yaml.
This caused spurious "SLACK_APP_TOKEN not set" errors when the token was
used only by skills (e.g. cron jobs that send Slack messages) rather than
for the Hermes messaging gateway.
Now, enabled: false in config.yaml is respected — the token is stored so
skills can still use it, but the gateway adapter is not activated.

`delete_session()` and `prune_sessions()` only removed SQLite records,
leaving .json/.jsonl transcript files on disk forever. Over time this
causes unbounded disk growth (~27MB/day observed).
Changes:
- Add `_remove_session_files()` static helper that cleans up
`{session_id}.json`, `.jsonl`, and `request_dump_{session_id}_*.json`
- `delete_session()` accepts optional `sessions_dir` param and removes
files for the deleted session and its children
- `prune_sessions()` accepts optional `sessions_dir` param and removes
files for all pruned sessions after the DB transaction
- Wire up CLI `hermes sessions delete` and `hermes sessions prune` to
pass `sessions_dir`
- File cleanup is best-effort (OSError silenced) so DB operations are
never blocked by filesystem issues
- Fully backward-compatible: `sessions_dir=None` (default) preserves
existing behavior
Extends the existing channel_skill_bindings mechanism (previously
Discord-only) to Slack, so a channel or DM can auto-load one or more
skills at session start without relying on the model's skill selector
for every short reply.
Motivation: Mats's German flashcards DM pushes a cron-driven card
5x/day; he responds with one-word guesses like 'work'. Previously each
reply required the main agent to decide whether to load german-flashcards
(full opus turn just to pick a skill). With the binding configured per
Slack channel, the skill is injected at session start and grading runs
directly.
Changes:
- Extract resolve_channel_skills() from DiscordAdapter._resolve_channel_skills
into gateway.platforms.base (now shared across adapters).
- DiscordAdapter._resolve_channel_skills delegates to the shared helper
(behavior preserved — existing test suite still passes unchanged).
- SlackAdapter: resolve channel_skill_bindings on each message and attach
auto_skill to MessageEvent. gateway/run.py already handles auto-skill
injection on new sessions; this just wires Slack through it.
- gateway/config.py: accept channel_skill_bindings in slack: block of
config.yaml (was Discord-only).
- Tests: new tests/gateway/test_slack_channel_skills.py with 11 cases
covering DM/thread/parent resolution, single-vs-list skills, dedup,
malformed entries. Discord suite unchanged.
- Docs: add 'Per-Channel Skill Bindings' section to Slack user guide.
Config example:
slack:
channel_skill_bindings:
- id: "D0ATH9TQ0G6"
skills: ["german-flashcards"]
Enter while the agent is busy can now inject the typed text via /steer —
arriving at the agent after the next tool call — instead of interrupting
(current default) or queueing for the next turn.
Changes:
- cli.py: keybinding honors busy_input_mode='steer' by calling
agent.steer(text) on the UI thread (thread-safe), with automatic
fallback to 'queue' when the agent is missing, steer() is unavailable,
images are attached, or steer() rejects the payload. /busy accepts
'steer' as a fourth argument alongside queue/interrupt/status.
- gateway/run.py: busy-message handler and the PRIORITY running-agent
path both route through running_agent.steer() when the mode is 'steer',
with the same fallback-to-queue safety net. Ack wording tells users
their message was steered into the current run. Restart-drain queueing
now also activates for 'steer' so messages aren't lost across restarts.
- agent/onboarding.py: first-touch hint has a steer branch for both
CLI and gateway.
- hermes_cli/commands.py: /busy args_hint updated to include steer,
and 'steer' is registered as a subcommand (completions).
- hermes_cli/web_server.py: dashboard select widget offers steer.
- hermes_cli/config.py, cli-config.yaml.example, hermes_cli/tips.py:
inline docs updated.
- website/docs/user-guide/cli.md + messaging/index.md: documented.
- Tests: steer set/status path for /busy; onboarding hints;
_load_busy_input_mode accepts steer; busy-session ack exercises
steer success + two fallback-to-queue branches.

Default is unchanged (interrupt).
Multiple overlapping Slack attachment improvements:
1. Upload retry with backoff on transient errors (429, 5xx, connection
reset, rate_limited, service unavailable). New _is_retryable_upload_error
helper covers three upload paths: _upload_file, send_video,
send_document. Up to 3 attempts with 1.5s * attempt backoff.
2. Thread participation tracking: successful file uploads now add the
thread_ts to _bot_message_ts, mirroring how text replies are tracked.
This lets follow-up thread messages auto-trigger the bot (same
engagement rules as replied threads).
3. Thread metadata preservation in the image redirect-guard fallback
(send_image → send text fallback) and in two gateway.run.py send
paths (image + document fallback calls).
4. HTML response rejection in _download_slack_file_bytes. Parallels
the existing check in _download_slack_file. Guards against Slack
returning a sign-in / redirect page as document bytes when scopes
are missing, so the agent doesn't get HTML-as-a-PDF.
5. File lifecycle event acks (file_shared / file_created / file_change).
These events arrive around snippet uploads. Acking them silences the
slack_bolt 'Unhandled request' 404 warnings without changing behavior.
6. Post-loop message type classification so a mixed image+document upload
classifies as PHOTO (or VOICE if no image), falling back to DOCUMENT.
Previously, the per-file classification in the inbound loop could be
overwritten unpredictably.
7. Expanded text-inject whitelist in inbound document handling to cover
.csv, .json, .xml, .yaml, .yml, .toml, .ini, .cfg (up to 100KB) so
snippets and config files are directly visible to the agent, not just
cached as opaque uploads. Paired with new MIME entries in
SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES in base.py.
Squashed from two commits in #11819 so the single commit carries the
contributor's GitHub attribution (the original commits were authored
under a local dev hostname).
Ports openclaw/openclaw#72038 to hermes-agent.
Telegram's `editMessageText` preserves the original message timestamp,
so a long-running streamed reply (reasoning models that take 60+ seconds
to finish) would keep the first-token timestamp even after completion.
Users can't tell how long a task actually took.
When a preview message has been visible for >= 60s (configurable via
`streaming.fresh_final_after_seconds`), finalize by sending a fresh
message instead of editing in place, then best-effort delete the stale
preview. Short previews still edit in place (the existing fast path).
Implementation notes adapted from OpenClaw's TypeScript original:
- `StreamConsumerConfig` gains `fresh_final_after_seconds` (default 0 =
legacy edit-in-place). Gateway-level `StreamingConfig` defaults to 60.
- `GatewayStreamConsumer` tracks `_message_created_ts` at first-send and
checks it in `_send_or_edit` on `finalize=True`. New helpers
`_should_send_fresh_final` + `_try_fresh_final`.
- `BasePlatformAdapter` gains optional `delete_message(chat_id, message_id)`
returning False by default. `TelegramAdapter` implements it via
`_bot.delete_message`.
- `gateway/run.py` only enables fresh-final for `Platform.TELEGRAM`;
other platforms ignore the setting (they don't have the stale-edit
timestamp problem or edit-then-read works cheaply).
- Fallback to normal edit on any fresh-send failure — no user-visible
regression if Telegram rate-limits a send or the message is gone.
Tests: 15 new cases in tests/gateway/test_stream_consumer_fresh_final.py
covering short/long previews, config plumbing, delete-support absent,
send-failure fallback, __no_edit__ sentinel safety, and StreamingConfig
round-trip.

Slack's modern composer sends messages with a 'blocks' array that
contains rich_text elements. When a user forwards or quotes another
message, the quoted content shows up in the rich_text_quote children
of that array — and is NOT included in the plain 'text' field. The
agent saw only the lossy plain text and was blind to forwarded /
quoted content. Same story for link unfurl previews (Notion, docs,
GitHub, etc.) which Slack puts in the 'attachments' array.
Two fixes in the inbound handler:
1. _extract_text_from_slack_blocks walks rich_text / rich_text_quote /
rich_text_list / rich_text_preformatted trees and renders readable
text ('> quoted', '• bullet', code fences), dedupes against the
plain text field, and appends the extracted content so the agent
sees everything.
2. Link unfurl / attachment preview extraction reads title, url,
body, and footer from the 'attachments' array and appends a
'📎 [title](url)\n body\n _footer_' section per preview.
Skips is_msg_unfurl to avoid echoing our own Slack replies back.
Routing is careful not to trust augmented text: mention gating
(is_mentioned) and slash-command detection both run against the
original 'text' field, so forwarded content containing '<@bot>' or
'/deploy' in a quote can't trick the bot into responding in a
channel it shouldn't or classifying a normal message as a command.
Adjustment from original PR: dropped _serialize_slack_blocks_for_agent,
which inlined a redacted JSON dump of non-rich_text blocks (section,
accessory, actions, etc.) — the agent would see the raw Block Kit
structure for UI-heavy alerts. It added up to 6000 characters to the
prompt context on every qualifying message with no opt-out. The
rich_text extraction and attachment unfurls cover the common bug-fix
case (quoted/forwarded content + link previews) without the prefill
tax. If a user needs block inspection later, it can return as a
config opt-in.
Also updates the Slack platform notes in session.py to accurately
describe what the gateway inlines.
Translate Slack attachment failures into actionable user-facing notices
instead of generic download errors. When a scope/auth/permission issue
breaks attachment processing, the user sees:
[Slack attachment notice]
- Slack attachment access failed for photo.jpg. Missing scope:
files:read. Update the Slack app scopes/settings and reinstall
the app to the workspace.
Two helpers do the translation:
_describe_slack_api_error — handles SlackApiError responses
(missing_scope, invalid_auth, file_not_found, access_denied, etc.)
_describe_slack_download_failure — handles httpx.HTTPStatusError
(401/403/404) and Slack-returns-HTML-sign-in fallbacks
Wired into three existing call sites:
- the Slack Connect files.info path (PR #11111) so scope errors
surface instead of being logged as generic "files.info failed"
- the image, audio, and document download paths so 401/403 and
HTML-body responses translate into actionable notices
Adjustment from original PR: dropped _probe_slack_file_access_issue,
the proactive pre-download files.info probe. It added one extra
Slack API call per attachment even on healthy ones, and overlapped
with the existing files.info call from PR #11111. The post-failure
translation path covers the same user-facing diagnostic value
without the per-message tax.
Also documents files:read scope more prominently in the Slack setup
guide and troubleshooting table.

Slack Connect channels return file objects with file_access="check_file_info"
and no url_private_download field (see
https://docs.slack.dev/reference/objects/file-object/#slack_connect_files).
These stub objects must be resolved via files.info before download can
proceed. Without this the agent silently skips attachments posted in
Slack Connect channels.
Call files.info on every file whose file_access is check_file_info,
replace the stub with the full file object, and let the existing
download path continue. Warn and skip on files.info failures.
Closes#11095.
The Slack thread-context fetcher used to drop every message with a
bot_id, which silently erased the thread parent whenever a cron job (or
any other bot) had posted it. As a result, replies to a cron-posted
summary lost all context and the agent answered as if from a blank
thread.
Changes:
1. gateway/platforms/slack.py::_fetch_thread_context
- Keep the thread parent even when it was posted by a bot
(e.g. cron summaries, third-party integrations).
- Only skip *our own* prior bot replies to avoid circular context,
matching the per-workspace bot user id via _team_bot_user_ids so
multi-workspace deployments stay correct.
- Keep non-self bot children (useful third-party context).
2. gateway/platforms/slack.py::_handle_slack_message
- Populate MessageEvent.reply_to_text for thread replies (parity
with Telegram/Discord/Feishu/WeCom). gateway.run uses this field
to inject a [Replying to: "..."] prefix when the parent is not
already in the session history, which is exactly the scenario
triggered by cron-generated thread parents.
- New helper _fetch_thread_parent_text reuses the existing thread-
context cache (and its 60s TTL) to avoid duplicate
conversations.replies calls; falls back to a cheap limit=1 fetch
when the cache is cold.
Tests:
- Updated TestSlackThreadContext::test_skips_bot_messages to reflect
the new behaviour (self-bot child dropped, third-party bot kept).
- Added:
* test_fetch_thread_context_includes_bot_parent
* test_fetch_thread_context_excludes_self_bot_replies
* test_fetch_thread_context_multi_workspace
* test_fetch_thread_context_current_ts_excluded (regression guard)
* test_fetch_thread_parent_text_from_cache
* test_slack_reply_to_text_set_on_thread_reply
* test_slack_reply_to_text_none_for_top_level_message
Full Slack suite: 176 passed (was 169).
send_message(target='slack:<channel_id>') failed with "Could not
resolve" because _parse_target_ref had no Slack branch — Slack's
uppercase alphanumeric IDs fell through to channel-name resolution,
which only matched by name. As a fallback, the agent would retry with
bare target='slack' and post to the home channel instead.
Three fixes:
- _parse_target_ref recognizes Slack IDs (C/G/D/U/W prefix) as
explicit targets so the name-resolver is bypassed entirely.
- resolve_channel_name tries a case-sensitive raw-ID match before
the existing name match, so any platform's IDs resolve cleanly.
- _build_slack now actually calls users.conversations against each
workspace's AsyncWebClient (paginated), instead of only returning
session-history entries. This populates the directory with public
and private channels the bot has joined, so action='list' shows
them and they can also be addressed by name. Errors from one
workspace don't block others.
build_channel_directory becomes async (Slack web calls require it).
The two async-context callers in gateway/run.py are awaited; the
cron ticker thread call bridges via asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe.
Slack bot needs channels:read and groups:read scopes for full
enumeration; missing scopes degrade gracefully per-workspace.
addressing #15927
Extends the strict_mention feature so an @mention in strict mode no
longer persistently tags the thread as 'mentioned'. Without this, the
thread's first mention would permanently auto-trigger the bot on every
subsequent message — which is exactly what strict_mention is designed
to prevent. Closes the agent-to-agent ack loop hole hhhonzik identified
in #14117.
Co-authored-by: hhhonzik <me@janstepanovsky.cz>
Adds a strict_mention config option that, when enabled, requires an
explicit @-mention on every message in channel threads. Disables the
'once mentioned, forever in the thread' and session-presence auto-triggers.
- New _slack_strict_mention() helper (config.extra + SLACK_STRICT_MENTION env)
- Bridged top-level slack.strict_mention yaml to SLACK_STRICT_MENTION env,
matching require_mention/allow_bots bridging
- Unit tests for the helper + config bridge
Top-level channel messages arrive at _resolve_thread_ts with
metadata.thread_id set to the message's own ts, because the inbound
handler in _handle_message_event uses 'event.ts' as a session-keying
fallback when event.thread_ts is absent. That made metadata alone
insufficient to distinguish a real thread reply from a top-level
message, so reply_in_thread=false only took effect in DMs.
Use reply_to (== incoming message_id == ts for top-level messages) as
the tiebreaker: when metadata.thread_id == reply_to the 'thread' is the
synthetic session-keying fallback, not a real parent, so we reply
directly in the channel. Real thread replies (reply_to != thread_id)
still resolve to the parent thread and preserve conversation context.
Closes#9268.
Slack's adapter registers a single parent slash command /hermes and
dispatches subcommands via slack_subcommand_map(). Bare /sethome is
not a registered command on Slack and fails with 'app did not
respond', logging 'Unhandled request' in slack_bolt.AsyncApp.
Show /hermes sethome in the first-run onboarding hint when the
source platform is Slack; keep /sethome for Telegram, Discord,
Matrix, Mattermost, and other platforms that register it directly.
Fixes#14632
Repeated /queue commands now each produce a full agent turn, in order,
with no merging. Previously the second /queue overwrote the first
because the handler wrote directly into the adapter's single-slot
_pending_messages dict.
- GatewayRunner grows a _queued_events overflow buffer (dict of list).
- /queue puts new items in the adapter's next-up slot when free,
otherwise appends to the overflow. After each run's drain consumes
the slot, the next overflow item is promoted so the recursive run
picks it up.
- /new and /reset clear the overflow.
- /status now reports queue depth when non-zero.
- Ack message shows the depth once it exceeds 1.
Helpers (_enqueue_fifo, _promote_queued_event, _queue_depth) use the
getattr default-fallback pattern so existing tests that build bare
GatewayRunner instances via object.__new__ keep working.
Every command in COMMAND_REGISTRY (/btw, /stop, /model, /help, /new,
/bg, /reset, ...) is now a first-class Slack slash command instead of
a /hermes <subcommand>. Users get the same autocomplete-driven slash
picker experience Slack users expect and that Discord and Telegram
already provide.
Previously Slack registered ONE native slash (/hermes) and split on
the first word, so typing /btw in Slack's composer got 'couldn't find
an app for /btw' because the workspace manifest never declared it.
Changes
- hermes_cli/commands.py: slack_native_slashes() + slack_app_manifest()
generate a Slack manifest from the registry (canonical names +
aliases + plugin commands), clamped to Slack's 50-slash cap with
/hermes reserved as the catch-all.
- gateway/platforms/slack.py: single regex matcher dispatches every
registered slash to _handle_slash_command, which dispatches on
command['command']. Legacy /hermes <subcommand> keeps working for
backward compat with older workspace manifests.
- hermes_cli/slack_cli.py + hermes_cli/main.py: new 'hermes slack
manifest' command prints/writes a full manifest (display info,
OAuth scopes, event subs, socket mode, slash commands) ready to
paste into 'Create from manifest' or Features → App Manifest.
- hermes_cli/setup.py: _setup_slack() now writes the manifest up-front
and points users at the 'From an app manifest' flow; also offers
to refresh the manifest on reconfigure for picking up new commands.
- Tests: 14 new tests covering native-slash dispatch (/btw, /stop,
/model), legacy /hermes <sub> compat, manifest structure, and
telegram<->slack parity (every Telegram command must also register
as a Slack slash). Existing /hermes-registration test updated to
assert the new regex matches /hermes, /btw, /stop, /model, /help.
- Docs: slack.md gains a 'Slash Commands' section + Option A manifest
flow in Step 1; cli-commands.md documents 'hermes slack manifest'.
Users pick up the new slashes by running 'hermes slack manifest --write'
and pasting into Features → App Manifest → Edit in their Slack app
config, then Save (Slack prompts for reinstall if scopes changed).
Address Copilot review findings:
1. Gate _last_activity_desc on interrupt_depth == 0 alongside _last_activity_ts.
Both fields are semantically paired — desc describes the activity *at* ts.
Updating desc without ts made get_activity_summary() report "starting new
turn (cached)" for 20+ minutes while the timestamp showed the true stale
duration, producing misleading diagnostic output.
2. Monkeypatch gateway.run.time.time to a fixed epoch in tests that assert
on _last_activity_ts values. Real time.time() comparisons were latently
flaky under slow CI or NTP adjustments. _FAKE_NOW = 10_000.0 is used
as the reference; assertions are now exact equality rather than >=.
3. Add test_fresh_turn_resets_desc and test_interrupt_turn_preserves_desc to
directly cover the gated desc behaviour introduced by (1).

_last_activity_ts was unconditionally reset to time.time() on every
_agent_cache hit. For interrupt-recursive _run_agent calls
(_interrupt_depth > 0) this silently reset the inactivity watchdog's
idle clock on each re-entry, preventing the 30-min timeout from ever
firing when a turn got stuck in an interrupt loop. A stuck session
would emit "Still working... iteration 0/60, starting new turn (cached)"
heartbeats indefinitely instead of timing out.
Gate the reset on _interrupt_depth == 0 only. Fresh external turns
still receive the reset so a session idle for 29 min doesn't trip the
watchdog before the new turn makes its first API call (#9051).
The per-turn reset logic is extracted into a static helper
_init_cached_agent_for_turn() to make it directly testable.

New `hermes kanban` CLI subcommand + `/kanban` slash command + skills for
worker and orchestrator profiles. SQLite-backed task board
(~/.hermes/kanban.db) shared across all profiles on the host. Zero
changes to run_agent.py, no new core tools, no tool-schema bloat.
Motivation: delegate_task is a function call — sync fork/join, anonymous
subagent, no resumability, no human-in-the-loop. Kanban is the durable
shape needed for research triage, scheduled ops, digital twins,
engineering pipelines, and fleet work. They coexist (workers may call
delegate_task internally).
What this adds
- hermes_cli/kanban_db.py — schema, CAS claim, dependency resolution,
dispatcher, workspace resolution, worker-context builder.
- hermes_cli/kanban.py — 15-verb CLI surface and shared run_slash()
entry point used by both CLI and gateway.
- skills/devops/kanban-worker — how a profile should work a claimed task.
- skills/devops/kanban-orchestrator — "you are a dispatcher, not a
worker" template with anti-temptation rules.
- /kanban slash command wired into cli.py and gateway/run.py. Bypasses
the running-agent guard (board writes don't touch agent state), so
/kanban unblock can free a stuck worker mid-conversation.
- Design spec at docs/hermes-kanban-v1-spec.pdf — comparative analysis
vs Cline Kanban, Paperclip, NanoClaw, Gemini Enterprise; 8 patterns;
4 user stories; implementation plan; concurrency correctness.
- Docs: website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md, CLI reference
updated, sidebar entry added.
Architecture highlights
- Three planes: control (user + gateway), state (board + dispatcher),
execution (pool of profile processes).
- Every worker is a full OS process, spawned as `hermes -p <profile>`.
No in-process subagent swarms — solves NanoClaw's SDK-lifecycle
failure class.
- Atomic claim via SQLite CAS in a BEGIN IMMEDIATE transaction; stale
claims reclaimed 15 min after their TTL expires.
- Tenant namespacing via one nullable column — one specialist fleet
can serve many businesses with data isolation by workspace path.
Tests: 60 targeted tests (schema, CAS atomicity, dependency resolution,
dispatcher, workspace kinds, tenancy, CLI + slash surface). All pass
hermetic via scripts/run_tests.sh.
Follow-up to PR #16053 (/btw as /background alias). Cleans up the
plumbing added exclusively for the old ephemeral /btw handler and
repairs a broken btw bypass that landed between my refactor and this
follow-up.
run_agent.py:
- Remove persist_session kwarg, instance attr, and _persist_session
short-circuit. Only /btw ever passed persist_session=False; with
/btw gone the default (always persist) is the only behavior anyone
ever wanted.
gateway/run.py:
- Remove the unreachable 'if _cmd_def_inner.name == "btw"' block
(PR #16059). Canonical name for a /btw message is 'background' after
alias resolution — the comparison could never be true, and it called
_handle_btw_command which no longer exists. The /background branch
above it already dispatches /btw correctly.
tests/gateway/test_running_agent_session_toggles.py:
- Fix test_btw_dispatches_mid_run to mock _handle_background_command
(the real dispatch target for /btw) instead of the deleted
_handle_btw_command.
/btw spawns a parallel ephemeral side-question task (self-guarded against
concurrent /btw on the same chat) — exactly like /background. But it was
missing from the running-agent bypass list in _handle_message(), so it
fell through to the catch-all and returned:
⏳ Agent is running — /btw can't run mid-turn. Wait for the current
response or /stop first.
That's the opposite of what /btw is for — asking a side question while
the main turn is still working. Add the bypass next to /background and a
regression test covering the mid-turn dispatch path.
Reported by @IuriiTiunov on Telegram.
The ephemeral no-tools side-question variant of /btw confused users who
expected 'by-the-way' to mean 'run this off to the side with tools' —
they'd type /btw and get a toolless agent that couldn't do the work.
/bg worked because it was /background with full tools.
Collapse the two: /btw and /bg both alias to /background. One command,
one behavior, no more gotchas about which variant has tools.
Removed:
- _handle_btw_command in cli.py and gateway/run.py
- _run_btw_task + _active_btw_tasks state in gateway/run.py
- prompt.btw JSON-RPC method + btw.complete event in tui_gateway
- BtwStartResponse type + btw.complete case in ui-tui
- Standalone /btw slash tree registration in Discord
- Standalone btw CommandDef in hermes_cli/commands.py
Updated:
- background CommandDef aliases: (bg,) -> (bg, btw)
- TUI session.ts: local btw handler merged into background
- Docs and tips updated to describe /btw as a /background alias
Instead of a blocking first-run questionnaire, show a one-time hint the first
time the user hits each behavior fork:
1. First message while the agent is working — appends a hint to the busy-ack
explaining the /busy queue vs /busy interrupt knob, phrased to match the
mode that was just applied (don't tell a queue-mode user to switch to
queue).
2. First tool that runs for >= 30s in the noisiest progress mode
(tool_progress: all) — prints a hint about /verbose to cycle display
modes (all -> new -> off -> verbose). Gated on /verbose actually being
usable on the surface: always shown on CLI; on gateway only shown when
display.tool_progress_command is enabled.
Each hint is latched in config.yaml under onboarding.seen.<flag>, so it
fires exactly once per install across CLI, gateway, and cron, then never
again. Users can wipe the section to re-see hints.
New:
- agent/onboarding.py — is_seen / mark_seen / hint strings, shared by
both CLI and gateway.
- onboarding.seen in DEFAULT_CONFIG (hermes_cli/config.py) and in
load_cli_config defaults (cli.py). No _config_version bump — deep
merge handles new keys.
Wired:
- gateway/run.py: _handle_active_session_busy_message appends the hint
after building the ack. progress_callback tracks tool.completed
duration and queues the tool-progress hint into the progress bubble.
- cli.py: CLI input loop appends the busy-input hint on the first busy
Enter; _on_tool_progress appends the tool-progress hint on the first
>=30s tool completion. In-memory CLI_CONFIG is also updated so
subsequent fires in the same process are suppressed immediately.
All writes go through atomic_yaml_write and are wrapped in try/except
so onboarding can never break the input/busy-ack paths.
The base adapter's auto-TTS path fired on any voice message unless the
chat had explicitly run /voice off — it never read voice.auto_tts from
config.yaml, so users who set auto_tts: false still got audio replies.
Gate the base adapter on a three-layer decision instead:
1. chat in _auto_tts_enabled_chats (explicit /voice on|tts) → fire
2. chat in _auto_tts_disabled_chats (explicit /voice off) → suppress
3. else → voice.auto_tts global default
Runner now pushes voice.auto_tts onto the adapter as _auto_tts_default
and mirrors /voice on|tts chats into _auto_tts_enabled_chats via the
existing _sync_voice_mode_state_to_adapter path. /voice off still wins.
Closes#16007.
When the LLM response carries N parallel tool calls, the agent fires
N tool.started events back-to-back before its interrupt check runs.
A user sending /stop mid-batch would see the '⚡ Interrupting current
task' ack followed by a trail of 🔍 web_search bubbles for the remaining
events in the batch — making the interrupt feel ignored.
progress_callback and the drain loop in send_progress_messages now
check agent.is_interrupted (via agent_holder[0], the existing
cross-scope handle). Events that arrive after interrupt are dropped
at both the queueing and rendering stages. The '⚡ Interrupting'
message is sent through a separate adapter path and is unaffected.
Fixes#15779. Custom-provider per-model context_length (`custom_providers[].models.<id>.context_length`) is now honored across every resolution path, not just agent startup. Also adds 256K as the top probe tier and default fallback.
## What changed
New helper `hermes_cli.config.get_custom_provider_context_length()` — single source of truth for the per-model override lookup, with trailing-slash-insensitive base-url matching.
`agent.model_metadata.get_model_context_length()` gains an optional `custom_providers=` kwarg (step 0b — runs after explicit `config_context_length` but before every other probe).
Wired through five call sites that previously either duplicated the lookup or ignored it entirely:
- `run_agent.py` startup — refactored to use the new helper (dedups legacy inline loop, keeps invalid-value warning)
- `AIAgent.switch_model()` — re-reads custom_providers from live config on every /model switch
- `hermes_cli.model_switch.resolve_display_context_length()` — new `custom_providers=` kwarg
- `gateway/run.py` /model confirmation (picker callback + text path)
- `gateway/run.py` `_format_session_info` (/info)
## Context probe tiers
`CONTEXT_PROBE_TIERS = [256_000, 128_000, 64_000, 32_000, 16_000, 8_000]` — was `[128_000, ...]`. `DEFAULT_FALLBACK_CONTEXT` follows tier[0], so unknown models now default to 256K. The stale `128000` literal in the OpenRouter metadata-miss path is replaced with `DEFAULT_FALLBACK_CONTEXT` for consistency.
## Repro (from #15779)
```yaml
custom_providers:
- name: my-custom-endpoint
base_url: https://example.invalid/v1
model: gpt-5.5
models:
gpt-5.5:
context_length: 1050000
```
`/model gpt-5.5 --provider custom:my-custom-endpoint` → previously "Context: 128,000", now "Context: 1,050,000".
## Tests
- `tests/hermes_cli/test_custom_provider_context_length.py` — new file, 19 tests covering the helper, step-0b integration, and the 256K tier invariants
- `tests/hermes_cli/test_model_switch_context_display.py` — added regression tests for #15779 through the display resolver
- `tests/gateway/test_session_info.py` — updated default-fallback assertion (128K → 256K)
- `tests/agent/test_model_metadata.py` — updated tier assertions for the new top tier
task.cancel() can't preempt the run_in_executor thread running
run_conversation(), so we rely on agent.interrupt() to wake the loop.
Without a timeout, a slow/unresponsive interrupt blocks the HTTP
response indefinitely. Wrap the await in wait_for(shield(task), 5.0)
and log a warning on timeout.
Also tidy one extra space in the module docstring's /stop entry.
Add ability to interrupt a running agent via the runs API. Previously
/v1/runs could start a run and subscribe to events, but there was no
way to cancel it. The new endpoint stores agent and task references
during execution, calls agent.interrupt() to stop LLM calls, then
cancels the asyncio task.
Includes 15 tests covering start, events, and stop scenarios.
When a user sends /stop during a streaming API call, the outer poll loop
detects _interrupt_requested and closes the HTTP connection. However, the
inner _call() thread catches the connection error and enters its retry
loop — opening a FRESH connection without checking the interrupt flag.
On slow providers like ollama-cloud, each retry attempt blocks for the
full stream-read timeout (120s+). With 3 retry attempts this caused
510+ second delays between /stop and actual response — the agent appeared
completely unresponsive despite the stop being acknowledged.
Fix: add an _interrupt_requested check at the top of the streaming retry
loop so the agent exits immediately instead of retrying.
Also fix log truncation: all session key logging in gateway/run.py used
[:20] or [:30] slices, which truncated 'agent:main:telegram:dm:5690190437'
(33 chars) to 'agent:main:telegram:' — losing the identifying chat type
and user ID. Replace with full keys to make logs debuggable.
Reported by user Sidharth Pulipaka via Telegram on ollama-cloud provider.
The AIAgent.flush_memories pre-compression save, the gateway
_flush_memories_for_session, and everything feeding them are
obsolete now that the background memory/skill review handles
persistent memory extraction.
Problems with flush_memories:
- Pre-dates the background review loop. It was the only memory-save
path when introduced; the background review now fires every 10 user
turns on CLI and gateway alike, which is far more frequent than
compression or session reset ever triggered flush.
- Blocking and synchronous. Pre-compression flush ran on the live agent
before compression, blocking the user-visible response.
- Cache-breaking. Flush built a temporary conversation prefix
(system prompt + memory-only tool list) that diverged from the live
conversation's cached prefix, invalidating prompt caching. The
gateway variant spawned a fresh AIAgent with its own clean prompt
for each finalized session — still cache-breaking, just in a
different process.
- Redundant. Background review runs in the live conversation's
session context, gets the same content, writes to the same memory
store, and doesn't break the cache. Everything flush_memories
claimed to preserve is already covered.
What this removes:
- AIAgent.flush_memories() method (~248 LOC in run_agent.py)
- Pre-compression flush call in _compress_context
- flush_memories call sites in cli.py (/new + exit)
- GatewayRunner._flush_memories_for_session + _async_flush_memories
(and the 3 call sites: session expiry watcher, /new, /resume)
- 'flush_memories' entry from DEFAULT_CONFIG auxiliary tasks,
hermes tools UI task list, auxiliary_client docstrings
- _memory_flush_min_turns config + init
- #15631's headroom-deduction math in
_check_compression_model_feasibility (headroom was only needed
because flush dragged the full main-agent system prompt along;
the compression summariser sends a single user-role prompt so
new_threshold = aux_context is safe again)
- The dedicated test files and assertions that exercised
flush-specific paths
What this renames (with read-time backcompat on sessions.json):
- SessionEntry.memory_flushed -> SessionEntry.expiry_finalized.
The session-expiry watcher still uses the flag to avoid re-running
finalize/eviction on the same expired session; the new name
reflects what it now actually gates. from_dict() reads
'expiry_finalized' first, falls back to the legacy 'memory_flushed'
key so existing sessions.json files upgrade seamlessly.
Supersedes #15631 and #15638.
Tested: 383 targeted tests pass across run_agent/, agent/, cli/,
and gateway/ session-boundary suites. No behavior regressions —
background memory review continues to handle persistent memory
extraction on both CLI and gateway.
Both discord (read/participate) and discord_admin (server admin) are now
configurable via `hermes tools` with default-OFF. Previously the core
discord tool (fetch_messages, search_members, create_thread) auto-loaded
on every Discord install with DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN set — 19 tools the user
never opted into.
Adds a platform-scoping mechanism (_TOOLSET_PLATFORM_RESTRICTIONS) so
the discord toolsets only show up in the Discord platform's checklist,
not on CLI/Telegram/Slack/etc. Applied at four gates:
- _prompt_toolset_checklist: checklist filter
- _get_platform_tools: resolution filter (both branches)
- _save_platform_tools: save-time filter (covers 'Configure all
platforms' and hand-edited config.yaml)
- tools_disable_enable_command: rejects `hermes tools enable discord`
on non-Discord platforms with a clear error
build_session_context_prompt now injects the Discord IDs block only
when both conditions hold: the discord/discord_admin toolset is
enabled AND DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN is set. Toolset alone isn't enough —
the tool's check_fn gates on the token at registry time, so opting
in without a token yields no tools and the IDs block would lie.
Otherwise keep the stale-API disclaimer.
When DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN is set — meaning the discord tool actually
loads — emit a dedicated IDs block in the session context prompt so
the agent can call ``fetch_messages``, ``pin_message``, etc. with
real identifiers instead of probing.
Currently only ``thread_id`` was exposed as a raw ID (via the
``description`` string). The agent in a Discord thread had to guess
that the thread ID doubles as a channel ID for the REST API (it
does), and it had no way to reference the parent channel, the guild,
or the triggering message at all.
The block adapts to context:
- Thread: guild / parent channel / thread / message
- Channel: guild / channel / message
- (DM has no guild/channel IDs worth listing; only message)
Discord isn't in _PII_SAFE_PLATFORMS, so IDs ship unredacted.
The Discord platform note in the session context prompt claimed the
agent has no server-management APIs — pre-dating the discord tool.
With a bot token configured the agent actually has fetch_messages,
search_members, create_thread, and optionally the discord_admin tool;
telling the model otherwise causes it to refuse or apologise for
calls it is fully able to make.
Gate the disclaimer on DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN being unset, matching the
tool's own ``check_fn``. Without a token the note still appears and
remains accurate; with a token the model is no longer gaslit into
refusing valid tool calls.
Discord knows all four identifiers for every inbound message — guild,
channel (or thread), parent channel when in a thread, and the
triggering message. Pass them into ``SessionSource`` via the new
``build_source()`` kwargs so downstream code (context-prompt builder,
delivery, logging) can use them without re-resolving from discord.py
objects.
For auto-threaded messages, remember the original channel as the
parent before swapping ``chat_id`` to the freshly created thread.
Behavioural: still a no-op — nothing consumes these fields yet.
Groundwork for injecting raw platform identifiers into the agent's
system prompt. Currently only `thread_id` is exposed as a raw ID —
callers in a Discord thread had to guess `channel_id == thread_id`
(which happens to work because threads are channels in Discord's REST
API) and had no way to reference the parent channel, guild, or the
triggering message.
Adds three optional fields:
- `guild_id` — Discord guild / Slack workspace / Matrix server scope
- `parent_chat_id` — parent channel when chat_id refers to a thread
- `message_id` — ID of the triggering message (pin/reply/react)
Extends `BasePlatformAdapter.build_source()` to accept + forward them
and teaches `to_dict`/`from_dict` to serialize them. Behaviourally a
no-op: nothing reads the fields yet and they default to None.
Two adjustments to make CI pass:
- In gateway/platforms/matrix.py: `DeviceID` is `NewType("DeviceID", str)`,
so passing `client.device_id` directly (already a str) works identically
at runtime. The explicit import was cosmetic and tripped CI environments
where `mautrix.types` doesn't re-export DeviceID at the expected path
("cannot import name 'DeviceID' from 'mautrix.types' (unknown location)").
- In tests/gateway/test_matrix.py: add `put_device_id` to the hand-written
`PgCryptoStore` fake so the three encryption-path tests
(test_connect_with_access_token_and_encryption,
test_connect_uses_configured_device_id_over_whoami,
test_connect_registers_encrypted_event_handler_when_encryption_on) can
exercise the new crypto-store binding without AttributeError.
PgCryptoStore.__init__ defaults _device_id to "" and put_account writes
that blank value into crypto_account. The UPSERT's ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
clause deliberately does not touch device_id, so once the row is written
blank it stays blank forever — breaking every downstream device-scoped
olm operation. Peers' to-device olm ciphertext can't match our identity
key, no megolm sessions ever land, and the user sees "hermes is in the
room but never responds to encrypted messages".
Fix: call put_device_id(client.device_id) immediately after
crypto_store.open() and before olm.load(). This sets the store's
in-memory _device_id so the first put_account INSERT writes the correct
value from the start.
Observable symptoms without the fix, on a fresh crypto.db:
- crypto_account.device_id = ""
- crypto_tracked_user: 0 rows
- crypto_device: 0 rows
- crypto_olm_session: 0 rows
- crypto_megolm_inbound_session: 0 rows
- "No one-time keys nor device keys got when trying to share keys"
warning on every startup
- "olm event doesn't contain ciphertext for this device" DecryptionError
on any inbound to-device event
- Encrypted room messages arrive but never decrypt
After the fix (wiped crypto.db + restart):
- device_id populated with actual runtime device (e.g. CZIKTRFLOV)
- all counts populate from sync as expected
- encrypted DMs flow normally
Who hits this: anyone with a fresh crypto.db — includes first-time matrix
E2EE setup, nio→mautrix migrations (since matrix.py removes the legacy
pickle on startup, creating a fresh SQLite store), and anyone who wipes
crypto.db to start over. Existing installs that somehow already have a
non-blank device_id would be unaffected, but no prior code path writes
it correctly, so that set is likely empty.
/model gpt-5.5 on openai-codex showed 'Context: 1,050,000 tokens' because
the display block used ModelInfo.context_window directly from models.dev.
Codex OAuth actually enforces 272K for the same slug, and the agent's
compressor already runs at 272K via get_model_context_length() — so the
banner + real context budget said 272K while /model lied with 1M.
Route the display context through a new resolve_display_context_length()
helper that always prefers agent.model_metadata.get_model_context_length
(which knows about Codex OAuth, Copilot, Nous caps) and only falls back
to models.dev when that returns nothing.
Fix applied to all 3 /model display sites:
cli.py _handle_model_switch
gateway/run.py picker on_model_selected callback
gateway/run.py text-fallback confirmation
Reported by @emilstridell (Telegram, April 2026).
Extends PR #15171 to also cover the server-side cancellation path (aiohttp
shutdown, request-level timeout) — previously only ConnectionResetError
triggered the incomplete-snapshot write, so cancellations left the store
stuck at the in_progress snapshot written on response.created.
Factors the incomplete-snapshot build into a _persist_incomplete_if_needed()
helper called from both the ConnectionResetError and CancelledError
branches; the CancelledError handler re-raises so cooperative cancellation
semantics are preserved.
Adds two regression tests that drive _write_sse_responses directly (the
TestClient disconnect path races the server handler, which makes the
end-to-end assertion flaky).
When display.busy_input_mode is 'queue', the runner-level PRIORITY block
in _handle_message was still calling running_agent.interrupt() for every
text follow-up to an active session. The adapter-level busy handler
already honors queue mode (commit 9d147f7fd), but this runner-level path
was an unconditional interrupt regardless of config.
Adds a queue-mode branch that queues the follow-up via
_queue_or_replace_pending_event() and returns without interrupting.
Salvages the useful part of #12070 (@knockyai). The config fan-out to
per-platform extra was redundant — runner already loads busy_input_mode
directly via _load_busy_input_mode().
Follow-up to the canonical-identity session-key fix: pull the
JID/LID normalize/expand/canonical helpers into gateway/whatsapp_identity.py
instead of living in two places. gateway/session.py (session-key build) and
gateway/run.py (authorisation allowlist) now both import from the shared
module, so the two resolution paths can't drift apart.
Also switches the auth path from module-level _hermes_home (cached at
import time) to dynamic get_hermes_home() lookup, which matches the
session-key path and correctly reflects HERMES_HOME env overrides. The
lone test that monkeypatched gateway.run._hermes_home for the WhatsApp
auth path is updated to set HERMES_HOME env var instead; all other
tests that monkeypatch _hermes_home for unrelated paths (update,
restart drain, shutdown marker, etc.) still work — the module-level
_hermes_home is untouched.
Hermes' WhatsApp bridge routinely surfaces the same person under either
a phone-format JID (60123456789@s.whatsapp.net) or a LID (…@lid),
and may flip between the two for a single human within the same
conversation. Before this change, build_session_key used the raw
identifier verbatim, so the bridge reshuffling an alias form produced
two distinct session keys for the same person — in two places:
1. DM chat_id — a user's DM sessions split in half, transcripts and
per-sender state diverge.
2. Group participant_id (with group_sessions_per_user enabled) — a
member's per-user session inside a group splits in half for the
same reason.
Add a canonicalizer that walks the bridge's lid-mapping-*.json files
and picks the shortest/numeric-preferred alias as the stable identity.
build_session_key now routes both the DM chat_id and the group
participant_id through this helper when the platform is WhatsApp.
All other platforms and chat types are untouched.
Expose canonical_whatsapp_identifier and normalize_whatsapp_identifier
as public helpers. Plugins that need per-sender behaviour (role-based
routing, per-contact authorization, policy gating) need the same
identity resolution Hermes uses internally; without a public helper,
each plugin would have to re-implement the walker against the bridge's
internal on-disk format. Keeping this alongside build_session_key
makes it authoritative and one refactor away if the bridge ever
changes shape.
_expand_whatsapp_aliases stays private — it's an implementation detail
of how the mapping files are walked, not a contract callers should
depend on.
When the primary provider raises AuthError (expired OAuth token,
revoked API key), the error was re-raised before AIAgent was created,
so fallback_model was never consulted. Now both gateway/run.py and
cron/scheduler.py catch AuthError specifically and attempt to resolve
credentials from the fallback_providers/fallback_model config chain
before propagating the error.
Closes#7230
Keep Discord Copilot model switching responsive and current by refreshing picker data from the live catalog when possible, correcting the curated fallback list, and clearing stale controls before the switch completes.

Follow-up to the allowed_channels wildcard fix in the preceding commit.
The same '*' literal trap affected two other Discord channel config lists:
- DISCORD_IGNORED_CHANNELS: '*' was stored as the literal string in the
ignored set, and the intersection check never matched real channel IDs,
so '*' was a no-op instead of silencing every channel.
- DISCORD_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS: same shape — '*' never matched, so
the bot still required a mention everywhere.
Add a '*' short-circuit to both checks, matching the allowed_channels
semantics. Extend tests/gateway/test_discord_allowed_channels.py with
regression coverage for all three lists.
Refs: #14920
allowed_channels: "*" in config (or DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS="*" env var)
is meant to allow all channels, but the check was comparing numeric channel
IDs against the literal string set {"*"} via set intersection — always empty,
so every message was silently dropped.
Add a "*" short-circuit before the set intersection, consistent with every
other platform's allowlist handling (Signal, Slack, Telegram all do this).
Fixes#14920
Introduces a new plugin hook `pre_gateway_dispatch` fired once per
incoming MessageEvent in `_handle_message`, after the internal-event
guard but before the auth / pairing chain. Plugins may return a dict
to influence flow:
{"action": "skip", "reason": "..."} -> drop (no reply)
{"action": "rewrite", "text": "..."} -> replace event.text
{"action": "allow"} / None -> normal dispatch
Motivation: gateway-level message-flow patterns that don't fit cleanly
into any single adapter — e.g. listen-only group-chat windows (buffer
ambient messages, collapse on @mention), or human-handover silent
ingest (record messages while an owner handles the chat manually).
Today these require forking core; with this hook they can live in a
single profile-agnostic plugin.
Hook runs BEFORE auth so plugins can handle unauthorized senders
(e.g. customer-service handover ingest) without triggering the
pairing-code flow. Exceptions in plugin callbacks are caught and
logged; the first non-None action dict wins, remaining results are
ignored.
Includes:
- `VALID_HOOKS` entry + inline doc in `hermes_cli/plugins.py`
- Invocation block in `gateway/run.py::_handle_message`
- 5 new tests in `tests/gateway/test_pre_gateway_dispatch.py`
(skip, rewrite, allow, exception safety, internal-event bypass)
- 2 additional tests in `tests/hermes_cli/test_plugins.py`
- Table entry in `website/docs/user-guide/features/plugins.md`
Made-with: Cursor
Manual /compress crashed with 'LCMEngine' object has no attribute
'_align_boundary_forward' when any context-engine plugin was active.
The gateway handler reached into _align_boundary_forward and
_find_tail_cut_by_tokens on tmp_agent.context_compressor, but those
are ContextCompressor-specific — not part of the generic ContextEngine
ABC — so every plugin engine (LCM, etc.) raised AttributeError.
- Add optional has_content_to_compress(messages) to ContextEngine ABC
with a safe default of True (always attempt).
- Override it in the built-in ContextCompressor using the existing
private helpers — preserves exact prior behavior for 'compressor'.
- Rewrite gateway /compress preflight to call the ABC method, deleting
the private-helper reach-in.
- Add focus_topic to the ABC compress() signature. Make _compress_context
retry without focus_topic on TypeError so older strict-sig plugins
don't crash on manual /compress <focus>.
- Regression test with a fake ContextEngine subclass that only
implements the ABC (mirrors LCM's surface).
Reported by @selfhostedsoul (Discord, Apr 22).
Follow-up to Magaav's safe sync policy. Two gaps in the canonicalizer
caused false diffs or silent drift:
1. discord.py's AppCommand.to_dict() omits nsfw, dm_permission, and
default_member_permissions — those live only on attributes. The
canonicalizer was reading them via payload.get() and getting defaults
(False/True/None), while the desired side from Command.to_dict(tree)
had the real values. Any command using non-default permissions
false-diffed on every startup. Pull them from the AppCommand
attributes via _existing_command_to_payload().
2. contexts and integration_types weren't canonicalized at all, so
drift in either was silently ignored. Added both to
_canonicalize_app_command_payload (sorted for stable compare).
Also normalized default_member_permissions to str-or-None since the
server emits strings but discord.py stores ints locally.
Added regression tests for both gaps.
Replaces blind tree.sync() on every Discord reconnect with a diff-based
reconcile. In safe mode (default), fetch existing global commands,
compare desired vs existing payloads, skip unchanged, PATCH changed,
recreate when non-patchable metadata differs, POST missing, and delete
stale commands one-by-one. Keeps 'bulk' for legacy behavior and 'off'
to skip startup sync entirely.
Fixes restart-heavy workflows that burn Discord's command write budget
and can surface 429s when iterating on native slash commands.

cmd_update no longer SIGKILLs in-flight agent runs, and users get
'still working' status every 3 min instead of 10. Two long-standing
sources of '@user — agent gives up mid-task' reports on Telegram and
other gateways.
Drain-aware update:
- New helper hermes_cli.gateway._graceful_restart_via_sigusr1(pid,
drain_timeout) sends SIGUSR1 to the gateway and polls os.kill(pid,
0) until the process exits or the budget expires.
- cmd_update's systemd loop now reads MainPID via 'systemctl show
--property=MainPID --value' and tries the graceful path first. The
gateway's existing SIGUSR1 handler -> request_restart(via_service=
True) -> drain -> exit(75) is wired in gateway/run.py and is
respawned by systemd's Restart=on-failure (and the explicit
RestartForceExitStatus=75 on newer units).
- Falls back to 'systemctl restart' when MainPID is unknown, the
drain budget elapses, or the unit doesn't respawn after exit (older
units missing Restart=on-failure). Old install behavior preserved.
- Drain budget = max(restart_drain_timeout, 30s) + 15s margin so the
drain loop in run_agent + final exit have room before fallback
fires. Composes with #14728's tool-subprocess reaping.
Notification interval:
- agent.gateway_notify_interval default 600 -> 180.
- HERMES_AGENT_NOTIFY_INTERVAL env-var fallback in gateway/run.py
matched.
- 9-minute weak-model spinning runs now ping at 3 min and 6 min
instead of 27 seconds before completion, removing the 'is the bot
dead?' reflex that drives gateway-restart cycles.
Tests:
- Two new tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_update_gateway_restart.py:
one asserts SIGUSR1 is sent and 'systemctl restart' is NOT called
when MainPID is known and the helper succeeds; one asserts the
fallback fires when the helper returns False.
- E2E: spawned detached bash processes confirm the helper returns
True on SIGUSR1-handling exit (~0.5s) and False on SIGUSR1-ignoring
processes (timeout). Verified non-existent PID and pid=0 edge cases.
- 41/41 in test_update_gateway_restart.py (was 39, +2 new).
- 154/154 in shutdown-related suites including #14728's new tests.
Reported by @GeoffWellman and @ANT_1515 on X.
Closes#8202.
Root cause: stop() reclaimed tool-call bash/sleep children only at the
very end of the shutdown sequence — after a 60s drain, 5s interrupt
grace, and per-adapter disconnect. Under systemd (TimeoutStopSec bounded
by drain_timeout), that meant the cgroup SIGKILL escalation fired first,
and systemd reaped the bash/sleep children instead of us.
Fix:
- Extract tool-subprocess cleanup into a local helper
_kill_tool_subprocesses() in _stop_impl().
- Invoke it eagerly right after _interrupt_running_agents() on the
drain-timeout path, before adapter disconnect.
- Keep the existing catch-all call at the end for the graceful path
and defense in depth against mid-teardown respawns.
- Bump generated systemd unit TimeoutStopSec to drain_timeout + 30s
so cleanup + disconnect + DB close has headroom above the drain
budget, matching the 'subprocess timeout > TimeoutStopSec + margin'
rule from the skill.
Tests:
- New: test_gateway_stop_kills_tool_subprocesses_before_adapter_disconnect_on_timeout
asserts kill_all() runs before disconnect() when drain times out.
- New: test_gateway_stop_kills_tool_subprocesses_on_graceful_path
guards that the final catch-all still fires when drain succeeds
(regression guard against accidental removal during refactor).
- Updated: existing systemd unit generator tests expect TimeoutStopSec=90
(= 60s drain + 30s headroom) with explanatory comment.
Before this, _process_message_background's finally did an unconditional
'del self._active_sessions[session_key]' — even if a /stop/ /new
command had already swapped in its own command_guard via
_dispatch_active_session_command and cancelled us. The old task's
unwind would clobber the newer guard, opening a race for follow-ups.
Replace with _release_session_guard(session_key, guard=interrupt_event)
so the delete only fires when the guard we captured is still the one
installed. The sibling _session_tasks pop already had equivalent
ownership matching via asyncio.current_task() identity; this closes the
asymmetry.
Adds two direct regressions in test_session_split_brain_11016:
- stale guard reference must not clobber a newer guard by identity
- guard=None default still releases unconditionally (for callers that
don't have a captured guard to match against)
Refs #11016
Closes the runner-side half of the split-brain described in issue #11016
by wiring the existing _session_run_generation counter through the
session-slot promotion and release paths.
Without this, an older async run could still:
- promote itself from sentinel to real agent after /stop or /new
invalidated its run generation
- clear _running_agents on the way out, deleting a newer run's slot
Both races leave _running_agents desynced from what the user actually
has in flight, which is half of what shows up as 'No active task to
stop' followed by late 'Interrupting current task...' acks.
Changes:
- track_agent() in _run_agent now calls _is_session_run_current() before
writing the real agent into _running_agents[session_key]; if /stop or
/new bumped the generation while the agent was spinning up, the slot
is left alone (the newer run owns it).
- _release_running_agent_state() gained an optional run_generation
keyword. When provided, it only clears the slot if the generation is
still current. The final cleanup at the tail of _run_agent passes the
run's generation so an old unwind can't blow away a newer run's state.
- Returns bool so callers can tell when a release was blocked.
All the existing call sites that do NOT pass run_generation behave
exactly as before — this is a strict additive guard.
Refs #11016
Closes the adapter-side half of the split-brain described in issue #11016
where _active_sessions stays live but nothing is processing, trapping the
chat in repeated 'Interrupting current task...' while /stop reports no
active task.
Changes on BasePlatformAdapter:
- Add _session_tasks: Dict[str, asyncio.Task] mapping session -> owner task
so session-terminating commands can cancel the right task and old task
finally blocks can't clobber a newer task's guard.
- Add _release_session_guard(guard=...) that only releases if the guard
Event still matches, preventing races where /stop or /new swaps in a
temporary guard while the old task unwinds.
- Add _session_task_is_stale() and _heal_stale_session_lock() for
on-entry self-heal: when handle_message() sees an _active_sessions
entry whose RECORDED owner task is done/cancelled, clear it and fall
through to normal dispatch. No owner task recorded = not stale (some
tests install guards directly and shouldn't be auto-healed).
- Add cancel_session_processing() as the explicit adapter-side cancel
API so /stop/ /new/ /reset can cleanly tear down in-flight work.
- Route /stop, /new, /reset through _dispatch_active_session_command():
1. install a temporary command guard so follow-ups stay queued
2. let the runner process the command
3. cancel the old adapter task AFTER the runner response is ready
4. release the command guard and drain the latest pending follow-up
- _start_session_processing() replaces the inline create_task + guard
setup in handle_message() so guard + owner-task entry land atomically.
- cancel_background_tasks() also clears _session_tasks.
Combined, this means:
- /stop / /new / /reset actually cancel stuck work instead of leaving
adapter state desynced from runner state.
- A dead session lock self-heals on the next inbound message rather than
persisting until gateway restart.
- Follow-up messages after /new are processed in order, after the reset
command's runner response lands.

Multiple custom_providers entries sharing the same base_url + api_key
are now grouped into a single picker row. A local Ollama host with
per-model display names ("Ollama — GLM 5.1", "Ollama — Qwen3-coder",
"Ollama — Kimi K2", "Ollama — MiniMax M2.7") previously produced four
near-duplicate picker rows that differed only by suffix; now it appears
as one "Ollama" row with four models.
Key changes:
- Grouping key changed from slug-by-name to (base_url, api_key). Names
frequently differ per model while the endpoint stays the same.
- When the grouped endpoint matches current_base_url, the row's slug is
set to current_provider so picker-driven switches route through the
live credential pipeline (no re-resolution needed).
- Per-model suffix is stripped from the display name ("Ollama — X" →
"Ollama") via em-dash / " - " separators.
- Two groups with different api_keys at the same base_url (or otherwise
colliding on cleaned name) are disambiguated with a numeric suffix
(custom:openai, custom:openai-2) so both stay visible.
- current_base_url parameter plumbed through both gateway call sites.
Existing #8216, #11499, #13509 regressions covered (dict/list shapes
of models:, section-3/section-4 dedup, normalized list-format entries).
Salvaged from @davidvv's PR #9210 — the underlying code had diverged
~1400 commits since that PR was opened, so this is a reconstruction of
the same approach on current main rather than a clean cherry-pick.
Authorship preserved via --author on this commit.
Closes#9210
On Windows, os.kill(nonexistent_pid, 0) raises OSError with WinError 87
("The parameter is incorrect") instead of ProcessLookupError. Without
catching OSError, the acquire_scoped_lock() and get_running_pid() paths
crash on any invalid PID check — preventing gateway startup on Windows
whenever a stale PID file survives from a prior run.
Adapted @phpoh's fix in #12490 onto current main. The main file was
refactored in the interim (get_running_pid now iterates over
(primary_record, fallback_record) with a per-iteration try/except),
so the OSError catch is added as a new except clause after
PermissionError (which is a subclass of OSError, so order matters:
PermissionError must match first).

In WeCom group chats, messages sent as "@BotName /command" arrive with
the @mention prefix intact. This causes is_command() to return False
since the text does not start with "/".
Strip the leading @mention in group messages before creating the
MessageEvent, mirroring the existing behavior in the Telegram adapter.
iOS auto-corrects -- to — (em dash) and - to – (en dash), causing
commands like /model glm-4.7 —provider zai to fail with
'Model names cannot contain spaces'. Normalize at get_command_args().
The QQCloseError (non-4008) reconnect path in _listen_loop was
missing the MAX_RECONNECT_ATTEMPTS upper-bound check that exists
in both the Exception handler (line 546) and the 4008 rate-limit
handler (line 486). Without this check, if _reconnect() fails
permanently for any non-4008 close code, backoff_idx grows
indefinitely and the bot retries forever at 60-second intervals
instead of giving up cleanly.
Fix: add the same guard after backoff_idx += 1 in the general
QQCloseError branch, consistent with the existing Exception path.
Add discord.slash_commands config option (default: true) to allow
users to disable Discord slash command registration when running
alongside other bots that use the same command names.
When set to false in config.yaml:
discord:
slash_commands: false
The _register_slash_commands() call is skipped while text-based
parsing of /commands continues to work normally.
Fixes#4881
Add epub, pdf, zip, rar, 7z, docx, xlsx, pptx, txt, csv, apk, ipa to
the MEDIA: path regex in extract_media(). These file types were already
routed to send_document() in the delivery loop (base.py:1705), but the
extraction regex only matched media extensions (audio/video/image),
causing document paths to fall through to the generic \S+ branch which
could fail silently in some cases. This explicit list ensures reliable
matching and delivery for all common document formats.
Follow-up to the /resume and /branch cleanup in the previous commit:
/new is a conversation-boundary operation too, so session-scoped
dangerous-command approvals and /yolo state must not survive it.
Adds a scoped unit test for _clear_session_boundary_security_state that
also covers the /new path (which calls the same helper).
Feishu's open_id is app-scoped (same user gets different open_ids per
bot app), not a canonical identity. Functionally correct for single-bot
mode but semantically misleading.
- Add comprehensive Feishu identity model documentation to module docstring
- Prefer user_id (tenant-scoped) over open_id (app-scoped) in
_resolve_sender_profile when both are available
- Document bot_open_id usage for @mention matching
- Update user_id_alt comment in SessionSource to be platform-generic
Ref: closes analysis from PR #8388 (closed as over-scoped)
The _looks_like_gateway_process function was missing the
hermes-gateway script pattern, causing dashboard to report gateway

- hermes gateway
- hermes-gateway (new)
- gateway/run.py

Follow-up for salvaged PR #14179.
`_cleanup_invalid_pid_path` previously called `remove_pid_file()` for the
default PID path, but that helper defensively refuses to delete a PID file
whose pid field differs from `os.getpid()` (to protect --replace handoffs).
Every realistic stale-PID scenario is exactly that case: a crashed/Ctrl+C'd
gateway left behind a PID file owned by a now-dead foreign PID.
Once `get_running_pid()` has confirmed the runtime lock is inactive, the
on-disk metadata is known to belong to a dead process, so we can force-unlink
both the PID file and the sibling `gateway.lock` directly instead of going
through the defensive helper.
Also adds a regression test with a dead foreign PID that would have failed
against the previous cleanup logic.
Plugin slash commands now surface as first-class commands in every gateway
enumerator — Discord native slash picker, Telegram BotCommand menu, Slack
/hermes subcommand map — without a separate per-platform plugin API.
The existing 'command:<name>' gateway hook gains a decision protocol via
HookRegistry.emit_collect(): handlers that return a dict with
{'decision': 'deny'|'handled'|'rewrite'|'allow'} can intercept slash
command dispatch before core handling runs, unifying what would otherwise
have been a parallel 'pre_gateway_command' hook surface.
Changes:
- gateway/hooks.py: add HookRegistry.emit_collect() that fires the same
handler set as emit() but collects non-None return values. Backward
compatible — fire-and-forget telemetry hooks still work via emit().
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: add optional 'args_hint' param to
register_command() so plugins can opt into argument-aware native UI
registration (Discord arg picker, future platforms).
- hermes_cli/commands.py: add _iter_plugin_command_entries() helper and
merge plugin commands into telegram_bot_commands() and
slack_subcommand_map(). New is_gateway_known_command() recognizes both
built-in and plugin commands so the gateway hook fires for either.
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: extract _build_auto_slash_command helper
from the COMMAND_REGISTRY auto-register loop and reuse it for
plugin-registered commands. Built-in name conflicts are skipped.
- gateway/run.py: before normal slash dispatch, call emit_collect on
command:<canonical> and honor deny/handled/rewrite/allow decisions.
Hook now fires for plugin commands too.
- scripts/release.py: AUTHOR_MAP entry for @Magaav.
- Tests: emit_collect semantics, plugin command surfacing per platform,
decision protocol (deny/handled/rewrite/allow + non-dict tolerance),
Discord plugin auto-registration + conflict skipping, is_gateway_known_command.
Salvaged from #14131 (@Magaav). Original PR added a parallel
'pre_gateway_command' hook and a platform-keyed plugin command
registry; this re-implementation reuses the existing 'command:<name>'
hook and treats plugin commands as platform-agnostic so the same
capability reaches Telegram and Slack without new API surface.

Resolve Feishu @_user_N / @_all placeholders into display names plus a
structured [Mentioned: Name (open_id=...), ...] hint so agents can both
reason about who was mentioned and call Feishu OpenAPI tools with stable
open_ids. Strip bot self-mentions only at message edges (leading
unconditionally, trailing only before whitespace/terminal punctuation)
so commands parse cleanly while mid-text references are preserved.
Covers both plain-text and rich-post payloads.
Also fixes a pre-existing hydration bug: Client.request no longer accepts
the 'method' kwarg on lark-oapi 1.5.3, so bot identity silently failed
to hydrate and self-filtering never worked. Migrate to the
BaseRequest.builder() pattern and accept the 'app_name' field the API
actually returns. Tighten identity matching precedence so open_id is
authoritative when present on both sides.
Adds _reactions_enabled() gating to match Discord (DISCORD_REACTIONS) and
Telegram (TELEGRAM_REACTIONS) pattern. Defaults to true to preserve existing
behavior. Gates at three levels:
- _handle_slack_message: skips _reacting_message_ids registration
- on_processing_start: early return
- on_processing_complete: early return
Also adds config.yaml bridge (slack.reactions) and two new tests.
Slack reactions were placed around handle_message(), which returns
immediately after spawning a background task. This caused the 👀
→ ✅ swap to happen before any real work began.
Fix: implement on_processing_start / on_processing_complete callbacks
(matching Discord/Telegram) so reactions bracket actual _message_handler
work driven by the base class.
Also fixes missing stop_typing() for Slack's assistant thread status
indicator, which left 'is thinking...' stuck in the UI after processing
completed.
- Add _reacting_message_ids set for DM/@mention-only gating
- Add _active_status_threads dict for stop_typing lookup
- Update test_reactions_in_message_flow for new callback pattern
- Add test_reactions_failure_outcome and test_reactions_skipped_for_non_dm_non_mention
- Replace async create_bind_task/poll_bind_result with synchronous
httpx.Client equivalents, eliminating manual event loop management
- Move _render_qr and full qr_register() entry-point into onboard.py,
mirroring the Feishu onboarding pattern
- Remove _qqbot_render_qr and _qqbot_qr_flow from gateway.py (~90 lines);
call site becomes a single qr_register() import
- Fix potential segfault: previous code called loop.close() in the EXPIRED
branch and again in the finally block (double-close crashed under uvloop)
- Add configurable retain_tags / retain_source / retain_user_prefix /
retain_assistant_prefix knobs for native Hindsight.
- Thread gateway session identity (user_name, chat_id, chat_name,
chat_type, thread_id) through AIAgent and MemoryManager into
MemoryProvider.initialize kwargs so providers can scope and tag
retained memories.
- Hindsight attaches the new identity fields as retain metadata,
merges per-call tool tags with configured default tags, and uses
the configurable transcript labels for auto-retained turns.

* feat(state): auto-prune old sessions + VACUUM state.db at startup
state.db accumulates every session, message, and FTS5 index entry forever.
A heavy user (gateway + cron) reported 384MB with 982 sessions / 68K messages
causing slowdown; manual 'hermes sessions prune --older-than 7' + VACUUM
brought it to 43MB. The prune command and VACUUM are not wired to run
automatically anywhere — sessions grew unbounded until users noticed.
Changes:
- hermes_state.py: new state_meta key/value table, vacuum() method, and
maybe_auto_prune_and_vacuum() — idempotent via last-run timestamp in
state_meta so it only actually executes once per min_interval_hours
across all Hermes processes for a given HERMES_HOME. Never raises.
- hermes_cli/config.py: new 'sessions:' block in DEFAULT_CONFIG
(auto_prune=True, retention_days=90, vacuum_after_prune=True,
min_interval_hours=24). Added to _KNOWN_ROOT_KEYS.
- cli.py: call maintenance once at HermesCLI init (shared helper
_run_state_db_auto_maintenance reads config and delegates to DB).
- gateway/run.py: call maintenance once at GatewayRunner init.
- Docs: user-guide/sessions.md rewrites 'Automatic Cleanup' section.
Why VACUUM matters: SQLite does NOT shrink the file on DELETE — freed
pages get reused on next INSERT. Without VACUUM, a delete-heavy DB stays
bloated forever. VACUUM only runs when the prune actually removed rows,
so tight DBs don't pay the I/O cost.
Tests: 10 new tests in tests/test_hermes_state.py covering state_meta,
vacuum, idempotency, interval skipping, VACUUM-only-when-needed,
corrupt-marker recovery. All 246 existing state/config/gateway tests
still pass.
Verified E2E with real imports + isolated HERMES_HOME: DEFAULT_CONFIG
exposes the new block, load_config() returns it for fresh installs,
first call prunes+vacuums, second call within min_interval_hours skips,
and the state_meta marker persists across connection close/reopen.
* sessions.auto_prune defaults to false (opt-in)
Session history powers session_search recall across past conversations,
so silently pruning on startup could surprise users. Ship the machinery
disabled and let users opt in when they notice state.db is hurting
performance.
- DEFAULT_CONFIG.sessions.auto_prune: True → False
- Call-site fallbacks in cli.py and gateway/run.py match the new default
(so unmigrated configs still see off)
- Docs: flip 'Enable in config.yaml' framing + tip explains the tradeoff
Follow-ups on top of salvaged #13923 (@keifergu):
- Print QR poll dot every 3s instead of every 18s so "Fetching
configuration results..." doesn't look hung.
- On "status=success but no bot_info" from the WeCom query endpoint,
log the full payload at WARNING and tell the user we're falling
back to manual entry (was previously a single opaque line).
- Document in the qr_scan_for_bot_info() docstring that the
work.weixin.qq.com/ai/qc/* endpoints are the admin-console web-UI
flow, not the public developer API, and may change without notice.
Also add keifergu@tencent.com to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP so
release notes attribute the feature correctly.
PDFs emitted by tools (report generators, document exporters, etc.) now
deliver as native attachments when wrapped in MEDIA: — same as images,
audio, and video.
Bare .pdf paths are intentionally NOT added to extract_local_files(), so
the agent can still reference PDFs in text without auto-sending them.
The [Replying to: "..."] prefix is disambiguation, not deduplication. When
a user explicitly replies to a prior message, the agent needs a pointer to
which specific message they're referencing — even when the quoted text
already exists somewhere in history. History can contain the same or
similar text multiple times; without an explicit pointer the agent has to
guess (or answer for both subjects), and the reply signal is silently
dropped.
Example: in a conversation comparing Japan and Italy, replying to the
"Japan is great for culture..." message and asking "What's the best time
to go?" — previously the found_in_history check suppressed the prefix
because the quoted text was already in history, leaving the agent to
guess which destination the user meant. Now the pointer is always present.
Drops the found_in_history guard added in #1594. Token overhead is
minimal (snippet capped at 500 chars on the new user turn; cached prefix
unaffected). Behavior becomes deterministic: reply sent ⇒ pointer present.
Thanks to smartyi for flagging this.
When TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_URL was set but TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SECRET was not,
python-telegram-bot received secret_token=None and the webhook endpoint
accepted any HTTP POST. Anyone who could reach the listener could inject
forged updates — spoofed user IDs, spoofed chat IDs, attacker-controlled
message text — and trigger handlers as if Telegram delivered them.
The fix refuses to start the adapter in webhook mode without the secret.
Polling mode (default, no webhook URL) is unaffected — polling is
authenticated by the bot token directly.
BREAKING CHANGE for webhook-mode deployments that never set
TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SECRET. The error message explains remediation:
export TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SECRET="$(openssl rand -hex 32)"
and instructs registering it with Telegram via setWebhook's secret_token
parameter. Release notes must call this out.
Reported in GHSA-3vpc-7q5r-276h by @bupt-Yy-young. Hardening — not CVE
per SECURITY.md §3 "Public Exposure: Deploying the gateway to the
public internet without external authentication or network protection"
covers the historical default, but shipping a fail-open webhook as the
default was the wrong choice and the guard aligns us with the SECURITY.md
threat model.
When require_mention is enabled, slash commands no longer bypass
mention checks. Bare /command without @mention is filtered in groups,
while /command@botname (bot menu) and @botname /command still pass.
Commands still pass unconditionally when require_mention is disabled,
preserving backward compatibility.
Closes#6033
Wires the agent/account_usage module from the preceding commit into
/usage so users see provider-side quota/credit info alongside the
existing session token report.
CLI:
- `_show_usage` appends account lines under the token table. Fetch
runs in a 1-worker ThreadPoolExecutor with a 10s timeout so a slow
provider API can never hang the prompt.
Gateway:
- `_handle_usage_command` resolves provider from the live agent when
available, else from the persisted billing_provider/billing_base_url
on the SessionDB row, so /usage still returns account info between
turns when no agent is resident. Fetch runs via asyncio.to_thread.
- Account section is appended to all three return branches: running
agent, no-agent-with-history, and the new no-agent-no-history path
(falls back to account-only output instead of "no data").
Tests:
- 2 new tests in tests/gateway/test_usage_command.py cover the live-
agent account section and the persisted-billing fallback path.
Salvaged from PR #2486 by @kshitijk4poor. The original branch had
drifted ~2615 commits behind main and rewrote _show_usage wholesale,
which would have dropped the rate-limit and cached-agent blocks added
in PRs #6541 and #7038. This commit re-adds only the new behavior on
top of current main.
Generalize shared multi-user session handling so non-thread group sessions
(group_sessions_per_user=False) get the same treatment as shared threads:
inbound messages are prefixed with [sender name], and the session prompt
shows a multi-user note instead of pinning a single **User:** line into
the cached system prompt.
Before: build_session_key already treated these as shared sessions, but
_prepare_inbound_message_text and build_session_context_prompt only
recognized shared threads — creating cross-user attribution drift and
prompt-cache contamination in shared groups.
- Add is_shared_multi_user_session() helper alongside build_session_key()
so both the session key and the multi-user branches are driven by the
same rules (DMs never shared, threads shared unless
thread_sessions_per_user, groups shared unless group_sessions_per_user).
- Add shared_multi_user_session field to SessionContext, populated by
build_session_context() from config.
- Use context.shared_multi_user_session in the prompt builder (label is
'Multi-user thread' when a thread is present, 'Multi-user session'
otherwise).
- Use the helper in _prepare_inbound_message_text so non-thread shared
groups also get [sender] prefixes.
Default behavior unchanged: DMs stay single-user, groups with
group_sessions_per_user=True still show the user normally, shared threads
keep their existing multi-user behavior.
Tests (65 passed):
- tests/gateway/test_session.py: new shared non-thread group prompt case.
- tests/gateway/test_shared_group_sender_prefix.py: inbound preprocessing
for shared non-thread groups and default groups.

Follow-up on top of opriz's atomic PID file fix. The prior change caught
the race AFTER runner.start(), so the loser still opened Telegram polling
and Discord gateway sockets before detecting the conflict and exiting.
Hoist the PID-claim block to BEFORE runner.start(). Now the loser of the
O_CREAT|O_EXCL race returns from start_gateway() without ever bringing up
any platform adapter — no Telegram conflict, no Discord duplicate session.
Also add regression tests:
- test_write_pid_file_is_atomic_against_concurrent_writers: second
write_pid_file() raises FileExistsError rather than clobbering.
- Two existing replace-path tests updated to stateful mocks since the
real post-kill state (get_running_pid None after remove_pid_file)
is now exercised by the hoisted re-check.
If the old process crashed without firing its atexit handler,
remove_pid_file() is a no-op. Force-unlink the stale gateway.pid
so write_pid_file() (O_CREAT|O_EXCL) does not hit FileExistsError.
When starting the gateway with --replace, concurrent invocations could
leave multiple instances running simultaneously. This happened because
write_pid_file() used a plain overwrite, so the second racer would
silently replace the first process's PID record.
Changes:
- gateway/status.py: write_pid_file() now uses atomic O_CREAT|O_EXCL
creation. If the file already exists, it raises FileExistsError,
allowing exactly one process to win the race.
- gateway/run.py: before writing the PID file, re-check get_running_pid()
and catch FileExistsError from write_pid_file(). In both cases, stop
the runner and return False so the process exits cleanly.
Fixes#11718
Users can declare shell scripts in config.yaml under a hooks: block that
fire on plugin-hook events (pre_tool_call, post_tool_call, pre_llm_call,
subagent_stop, etc). Scripts receive JSON on stdin, can return JSON on
stdout to block tool calls or inject context pre-LLM.
Key design:
- Registers closures on existing PluginManager._hooks dict — zero changes
to invoke_hook() call sites
- subprocess.run(shell=False) via shlex.split — no shell injection
- First-use consent per (event, command) pair, persisted to allowlist JSON
- Bypass via --accept-hooks, HERMES_ACCEPT_HOOKS=1, or hooks_auto_accept
- hermes hooks list/test/revoke/doctor CLI subcommands
- Adds subagent_stop hook event fired after delegate_task children exit
- Claude Code compatible response shapes accepted

Pass the user's configured api_key through local-server detection and
context-length probes (detect_local_server_type, _query_local_context_length,
query_ollama_num_ctx) and use LM Studio's native /api/v1/models endpoint in
fetch_endpoint_model_metadata when a loaded instance is present — so the
probed context length is the actual runtime value the user loaded the model
at, not just the model's theoretical max.
Helps local-LLM users whose auto-detected context length was wrong, causing
compression failures and context-overrun crashes.

stopped at the first ) character. URLs with nested parentheses (e.g.
Wikipedia links like Python_(programming_language)) were improperly parsed.
Use a better regex, which is the same the Slack adapter uses.
When createForumTopic fails with 'not a forum' in a private chat,
the error now tells the user exactly what to do: enable Topics in
the DM chat settings from the Telegram app.
Also adds a Prerequisites callout to the docs explaining this
client-side requirement before the config section.
Add dm_policy and group_policy to the WhatsApp adapter, bringing parity
with WeCom/Weixin/QQ. Allows independent control of DM and group access:
disable DMs entirely, allowlist specific senders/groups, or keep open.
- dm_policy: open (default) | allowlist | disabled
- group_policy: open (default) | allowlist | disabled
- Config bridging for YAML → env vars
- 22 tests covering all policy combinations
Backward compatible — defaults preserve existing behavior.
Cherry-picked from PR #11597 by @MassiveMassimo.
Dropped the run.py group auth bypass (would have skipped user auth
for ALL platforms, not just WhatsApp).
Replaces the serial for-loop in tick() with ThreadPoolExecutor so all
jobs due in a single tick run concurrently. A slow job no longer blocks
others from executing, fixing silent job skipping (issue #9086).
Thread safety:
- Session/delivery env vars migrated from os.environ to ContextVars
(gateway/session_context.py) so parallel jobs can't clobber each
other's delivery targets. Each thread gets its own copied context.
- jobs.json read-modify-write cycles (advance_next_run, mark_job_run)
protected by threading.Lock to prevent concurrent save clobber.
- send_message_tool reads delivery vars via get_session_env() for
ContextVar-aware resolution with os.environ fallback.
Configuration:
- cron.max_parallel_jobs in config.yaml (null = unbounded, 1 = serial)
- HERMES_CRON_MAX_PARALLEL env var override
Based on PR #9169 by @VenomMoth1.
Fixes#9086
Prefer session_store origin over _parse_session_key() for shutdown
notifications. Fixes misrouting when chat identifiers contain colons
(e.g. Matrix room IDs like !room123:example.org).
Falls back to session-key parsing when no persisted origin exists.

Ref: #12766
WhatsApp already receives incoming voice messages (audio/ogg via the
bridge) but lacked a send_voice implementation, so TTS and audio
responses fell back to the base class send_image path instead of being
delivered as native audio messages.
Route send_voice through the existing _send_media_to_bridge helper
with media_type='audio', matching the pattern used by send_video and
send_document.
OpenAI-compatible clients (Open WebUI, LobeChat, etc.) can now send vision
requests to the API server. Both endpoints accept the canonical OpenAI
multimodal shape:
Chat Completions: {type: text|image_url, image_url: {url, detail?}}
Responses: {type: input_text|input_image, image_url: <str>, detail?}
The server validates and converts both into a single internal shape that the
existing agent pipeline already handles (Anthropic adapter converts,
OpenAI-wire providers pass through). Remote http(s) URLs and data:image/*
URLs are supported.
Uploaded files (file, input_file, file_id) and non-image data: URLs are
rejected with 400 unsupported_content_type.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/api_server.py
- _normalize_multimodal_content(): validates + normalizes both Chat and
Responses content shapes. Returns a plain string for text-only content
(preserves prompt-cache behavior on existing callers) or a canonical
[{type:text|image_url,...}] list when images are present.
- _content_has_visible_payload(): replaces the bare truthy check so a
user turn with only an image no longer rejects as 'No user message'.
- _handle_chat_completions and _handle_responses both call the new helper
for user/assistant content; system messages continue to flatten to text.
- Codex conversation_history, input[], and inline history paths all share
the same validator. No duplicated normalizers.
- run_agent.py
- _summarize_user_message_for_log(): produces a short string summary
('[1 image] describe this') from list content for logging, spinner
previews, and trajectory writes. Fixes AttributeError when list
user_message hit user_message[:80] + '...' / .replace().
- _chat_content_to_responses_parts(): module-level helper that converts
chat-style multimodal content to Responses 'input_text'/'input_image'
parts. Used in _chat_messages_to_responses_input for Codex routing.
- _preflight_codex_input_items() now validates and passes through list
content parts for user/assistant messages instead of stringifying.
- tests/gateway/test_api_server_multimodal.py (new, 38 tests)
- Unit coverage for _normalize_multimodal_content, including both part
formats, data URL gating, and all reject paths.
- Real aiohttp HTTP integration on /v1/chat/completions and /v1/responses
verifying multimodal payloads reach _run_agent intact.
- 400 coverage for file / input_file / non-image data URL.
- tests/run_agent/test_run_agent_multimodal_prologue.py (new)
- Regression coverage for the prologue no-crash contract.
- _chat_content_to_responses_parts round-trip coverage.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/api-server.md
- Inline image examples for both endpoints.
- Updated Limitations: files still unsupported, images now supported.
Validated live against openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4.6:
POST /v1/chat/completions → 200, vision-accurate description
POST /v1/responses → 200, same image, clean output_text
POST /v1/chat/completions [file] → 400 unsupported_content_type
POST /v1/responses [input_file] → 400 unsupported_content_type
POST /v1/responses [non-image data URL] → 400 unsupported_content_type

SessionStore.prune_old_entries was calling
self._has_active_processes_fn(entry.session_id) but the callback wired
up in gateway/run.py is process_registry.has_active_for_session, which
compares against session_key, not session_id. Every other caller in
session.py (_is_session_expired, _should_reset) already passes
session_key, so prune was the only outlier — and because session_id and
session_key live in different namespaces, the guard never fired.
Result in production: sessions with live background processes (queued
cron output, detached agents, long-running Bash) were pruned out of
_entries despite the docstring promising they'd be preserved. When the
process finished and tried to deliver output, the session_key to
session_id mapping was gone and the work was effectively orphaned.
Also update the existing test_prune_skips_entries_with_active_processes,
which was checking the wrong interface (its mock callback took session_id
so it agreed with the buggy implementation). The test now uses a
session_key-based mock, matching the production callback's real contract,
and a new regression guard test pins the behaviour.
Swallowed exceptions inside the prune loop now log at debug level instead
of silently disappearing.
Previously, /steer text was only injected after an entire tool batch
completed (_execute_tool_calls_sequential/concurrent returned). If the
batch had a long-running tool (delegate_task, terminal build), the
steer waited for ALL tools to finish before landing — functionally
identical to /queue from the user's perspective.
Now _apply_pending_steer_to_tool_results() is called after EACH
individual tool result is appended to messages, in both the sequential
and concurrent paths. A steer arriving during Tool 1 lands in Tool 1's
result before Tool 2 starts executing.
Also handles leftover steers in the gateway: if a steer arrives during
the final API call (no tool batch to drain into), it's now delivered as
the next user turn instead of being silently dropped.
Fixes user report from Utku.
/yolo and /verbose are safe to dispatch while an agent is running:
/yolo can unblock a pending approval prompt, /verbose cycles the
tool-progress display for the ongoing stream. Both modify session
state without needing agent interaction. Previously they fell through
to the running-agent catch-all (PR #12334) and returned the generic
busy message.
/fast and /reasoning stay on the catch-all — their handlers explicitly
say 'takes effect on next message', so nothing is gained by dispatching
them mid-turn.
Salvaged from #10116 (elkimek), scoped down.
Replaces the permanent "OK" receipt reaction with a 3-phase visual
lifecycle:
- Typing animation appears when the agent starts processing.
- Cleared when processing succeeds — the reply message is the signal.
- Replaced with CrossMark when processing fails.
- Cleared when processing is cancelled or interrupted.
When Feishu rejects the reaction-delete call, we keep the Typing in
place and skip adding CrossMark. Showing both at once would leave the
user seeing both "still working" and "done/failed" simultaneously,
which is worse than a stuck Typing.
A FEISHU_REACTIONS env var (default on) disables the whole lifecycle.
User-added reactions with the same emoji still route through to the
agent; only bot-origin reactions are filtered to break the feedback
loop.

Replaces the word-boundary regex scan with pure MessageEntity-based
detection. Telegram's server emits MENTION entities for real @username
mentions and TEXT_MENTION entities for @FirstName mentions; the text-
scanning fallback was both redundant (entities are always present for
real mentions) and broken (matched raw substrings like email addresses,
URLs, code-block contents, and forwarded literal text).
Entity-only detection:
- Closes bug #12545 ("foo@hermes_bot.example" false positive).
- Also fixes edge cases the regex fix would still miss: @handles inside
URLs and code blocks, where Telegram does not emit mention entities.
Tests rewritten to exercise realistic Telegram payloads (real mentions
carry entities; substring false positives don't).
stream_consumer._send_or_edit unconditionally passes finalize= to
adapter.edit_message(), but only DingTalk's override accepted the
kwarg. Streaming on Telegram/Discord/Slack/Matrix/Mattermost/Feishu/
WhatsApp raised TypeError the first time a segment break or final
edit fired.
The REQUIRES_EDIT_FINALIZE capability flag only gates the redundant
final edit (and the identical-text short-circuit), not the kwarg
itself — so adapters that opt out of finalize still receive the
keyword argument and must accept it.
Add *, finalize: bool = False to the 7 non-DingTalk signatures; the
body ignores the arg since those platforms treat edits as stateless
(consistent with the base class contract in base.py).
Add a parametrized signature check over every concrete adapter class
so a future override cannot silently drop the kwarg — existing tests
use MagicMock which swallows any kwarg and cannot catch this.
Fixes#12579
Follow-up to 40164ba1.
- _handle_voice_channel_join/leave now use event.source.platform instead of
hardcoded Platform.DISCORD (consistent with other voice handlers).
- Update tests/gateway/test_voice_command.py to use 'platform:chat_id' keys
matching the new _voice_key() format.
- Add platform isolation regression test for the bug in #12542.
- Drop decorative test_legacy_key_collision_bug (the fix makes the
collision impossible; the test mutated a single key twice, not a
real scenario).
- Adapter mocks in _sync_voice_mode_state_to_adapter tests now set
adapter.platform = Platform.* (required by new isinstance check).
Follow-up to #9337: _is_user_authorized maps Platform.QQBOT to
QQ_ALLOWED_USERS, but the new platform_env_map inside
_get_unauthorized_dm_behavior omitted it. A QQ operator with a strict
user allowlist would therefore still have the gateway send pairing
codes to strangers.
Adds QQBOT to the env map and a regression test.
When SIGNAL_ALLOWED_USERS (or any platform-specific or global allowlist)
is set, the gateway was still sending automated pairing-code messages to
every unauthorized sender. This forced pairing-code spam onto personal
contacts of anyone running Hermes on a primary personal account with a
whitelist, and exposed information about the bot's existence.
Root cause
----------
_get_unauthorized_dm_behavior() fell through to the global default
('pair') even when an explicit allowlist was configured. An allowlist
signals that the operator has deliberately restricted access; offering
pairing codes to unknown senders contradicts that intent.
Fix
---
Extend _get_unauthorized_dm_behavior() to inspect the active per-platform
and global allowlist env vars. When any allowlist is set and the operator
has not written an explicit per-platform unauthorized_dm_behavior override,
the method now returns 'ignore' instead of 'pair'.
Resolution order (highest → lowest priority):
1. Explicit per-platform unauthorized_dm_behavior in config — always wins.
2. Explicit global unauthorized_dm_behavior != 'pair' in config — wins.
3. Any platform or global allowlist env var present → 'ignore'.
4. No allowlist, no override → 'pair' (open-gateway default preserved).
This fixes the spam for Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, and all other
platforms with per-platform allowlist env vars.
Testing
-------
6 new tests added to tests/gateway/test_unauthorized_dm_behavior.py:
- test_signal_with_allowlist_ignores_unauthorized_dm (primary #9337 case)
- test_telegram_with_allowlist_ignores_unauthorized_dm (same for Telegram)
- test_global_allowlist_ignores_unauthorized_dm (GATEWAY_ALLOWED_USERS)
- test_no_allowlist_still_pairs_by_default (open-gateway regression guard)
- test_explicit_pair_config_overrides_allowlist_default (operator opt-in)
- test_get_unauthorized_dm_behavior_no_allowlist_returns_pair (unit)
All 15 tests in the file pass.
Fixes#9337
Smart model routing (auto-routing short/simple turns to a cheap model
across providers) was opt-in and disabled by default. This removes the
feature wholesale: the routing module, its config keys, docs, tests, and
the orchestration scaffolding it required in cli.py / gateway/run.py /
cron/scheduler.py.
The /fast (Priority Processing / Anthropic fast mode) feature kept its
hooks into _resolve_turn_agent_config — those still build a route dict
and attach request_overrides when the model supports it; the route now
just always uses the session's primary model/provider rather than
running prompts through choose_cheap_model_route() first.
Also removed:
- DEFAULT_CONFIG['smart_model_routing'] block and matching commented-out
example sections in hermes_cli/config.py and cli-config.yaml.example
- _load_smart_model_routing() / self._smart_model_routing on GatewayRunner
- self._smart_model_routing / self._active_agent_route_signature on
HermesCLI (signature kept; just no longer initialised through the
smart-routing pipeline)
- route_label parameter on HermesCLI._init_agent (only set by smart
routing; never read elsewhere)
- 'Smart Model Routing' section in website/docs/integrations/providers.md
- tip in hermes_cli/tips.py
- entries in hermes_cli/dump.py + hermes_cli/web_server.py
- row in skills/autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent/SKILL.md
Tests:
- Deleted tests/agent/test_smart_model_routing.py
- Rewrote tests/agent/test_credential_pool_routing.py to target the
simplified _resolve_turn_agent_config directly (preserves credential
pool propagation + 429 rotation coverage)
- Dropped 'cheap model' test from test_cli_provider_resolution.py
- Dropped resolve_turn_route patches from cli + gateway test_fast_command
— they now exercise the real method end-to-end
- Removed _smart_model_routing stub assignments from gateway/cron test
helpers
Targeted suites: 74/74 in the directly affected test files;
tests/agent + tests/cron + tests/cli pass except 5 failures that
already exist on main (cron silent-delivery + alias quick-command).
Extends _hydrate_bot_identity() to also populate _bot_open_id (not just
_bot_name) by probing /open-apis/bot/v3/info — the same endpoint the
scan-to-create wizard uses. No extra scopes required beyond the tenant
access token.
Closes the manual-setup gap in #12450: users who configured Feishu
without running the wizard, and never set FEISHU_BOT_OPEN_ID, now get
a bot identity that _is_self_sent_bot_message() can actually use to
filter the adapter's own bot-sent events.
Each field is hydrated independently:
- Env vars (FEISHU_BOT_OPEN_ID / FEISHU_BOT_USER_ID / FEISHU_BOT_NAME)
still take precedence and skip their respective probe.
- /bot/v3/info provides open_id + name.
- Application-info endpoint remains as a best-effort fallback for
bot_name only (needs admin:app.info:readonly scope).
Tests: 5 new cases covering env-var precedence, probe success, probe
failure fallback, and the end-to-end self-send filter gate after
hydration.
PR #12558 was heavy for what the fix actually is — essay-length
comments, a dedicated helper method where a setdefault would do, and
a source-inspection test with no real behavior coverage. The
genuine code change is ~5 lines of new logic (1 field, 2 async with,
an on_ready wait block).
Trimmed:
- Replaced the 12-line _voice_lock_for helper with a setdefault
one-liner at each call site (join_voice_channel, leave_voice_channel).
- Collapsed the 12-line comment on on_message's _ready_event wait to
3 lines. Dropped the warning log on timeout — pass-on-timeout is
fine; if on_ready hangs that long, the bot is already broken and
the log wouldn't help.
- Dropped the source-inspection test (greps the module source for
expected substrings). It was low-value scaffolding; the
voice-serialization test covers actual behavior.
Net: -73 lines vs PR #12558. Same two guarantees preserved, same
test passes (verified by stashing the fix and confirming failure).
Two small races in gateway/platforms/discord.py, bundled together
since they're adjacent in the adapter and both narrow in impact.
1. on_message vs _resolve_allowed_usernames (startup window)
DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS accepts both numeric IDs and raw usernames.
At connect-time, _resolve_allowed_usernames walks the bot's guilds
(fetch_members can take multiple seconds) to swap usernames for IDs.
on_message can fire during that window; _is_allowed_user compares
the numeric author.id against a set that may still contain raw
usernames — legitimate users get silently rejected for a few
seconds after every reconnect.
Fix: on_message awaits _ready_event (with a 30s timeout) when it
isn't already set. on_ready sets the event after the resolve
completes. In steady state this is a no-op (event already set);
only the startup / reconnect window ever blocks.
2. join_voice_channel check-and-connect
The existing-connection check at _voice_clients.get() and the
channel.connect() call straddled an await boundary with no lock.
Two concurrent /voice channel invocations could both see None and
both call connect(); discord.py raises ClientException
("Already connected") on the loser. Same race class for leave
running concurrently with _voice_timeout_handler.
Fix: per-guild asyncio.Lock (_voice_locks dict with lazy alloc via
_voice_lock_for). join_voice_channel and leave_voice_channel both
run their body under the lock. Sequential within a guild, still
fully concurrent across guilds.
Both: LOW severity. The first only affects username-based allowlists
on fast-follow-up messages at startup; the second is a narrow
exception on simultaneous voice commands. Bundled so the adapter
gets a single coherent polish pass.
Tests (tests/gateway/test_discord_race_polish.py): 2 regression cases.
- test_concurrent_joins_do_not_double_connect: two concurrent
join_voice_channel calls on the same guild result in exactly one
channel.connect() invocation.
- test_on_message_blocks_until_ready_event_set: asserts the expected
wait pattern is present in on_message (source inspection, since
full discord.py client setup isn't practical here).
Regression-guard validated: against unpatched gateway/platforms/discord.py
both tests fail. With the fix they pass. Full Discord suite (118
tests) green.
External services can now push plain-text notifications to a user's chat
via the webhook adapter without invoking the agent. Set deliver_only=true
on a route and the rendered prompt template becomes the literal message
body — dispatched directly to the configured target (Telegram, Discord,
Slack, GitHub PR comment, etc.).
Reuses all existing webhook infrastructure: HMAC-SHA256 signature
validation, per-route rate limiting, idempotency cache, body-size limits,
template rendering with dot-notation, home-channel fallback. No new HTTP
server, no new auth scheme, no new port.
Use cases: Supabase/Firebase webhooks → user notifications, monitoring
alert forwarding, inter-agent pings, background job completion alerts.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/webhook.py: new _direct_deliver() helper + early
dispatch branch in _handle_webhook when deliver_only=true. Startup
validation rejects deliver_only with deliver=log.
- hermes_cli/main.py + hermes_cli/webhook.go: --deliver-only flag on
subscribe; list/show output marks direct-delivery routes.
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/webhooks.md: new Direct Delivery
Mode section with config example, CLI example, response codes.
- skills/devops/webhook-subscriptions/SKILL.md: document --deliver-only
with use cases (bumped to v1.1.0).
- tests/gateway/test_webhook_deliver_only.py: 14 new tests covering
agent bypass, template rendering, status codes, HMAC still enforced,
idempotency still applies, rate limit still applies, startup
validation, and direct-deliver dispatch.
Validation: 78 webhook tests pass (64 existing + 14 new). E2E verified
with real aiohttp server + real urllib POST — agent not invoked, target
adapter.send() called with rendered template, duplicate delivery_id
suppressed.
Closes the gap identified in PR #12117 (thanks to @H1an1 / Antenna team)
without adding a second HTTP ingress server.
Follow-up on top of the helix4u #12388 cherry-picks:
- make deferred post-delivery callbacks generation-aware end-to-end so
stale runs cannot clear callbacks registered by a fresher run for the
same session
- bind callback ownership to the active session event at run start and
snapshot that generation inside base adapter processing so later event
mutation cannot retarget cleanup
- pass run_generation through proxy mode and drop stale proxy streams /
final results the same way local runs are dropped
- centralize stop/new interrupt cleanup into one helper and replace the
open-coded branches with shared logic
- unify internal control interrupt reason strings via shared constants
- remove the return from base.py's finally block so cleanup no longer
swallows cancellation/exception flow
- add focused regressions for generation forwarding, proxy stale
suppression, and newer-callback preservation
This addresses all review findings from the initial #12388 review while
keeping the fix scoped to stale-output/typing-loop interrupt handling.
Follow-up on top of the helix4u #6392 cherry-pick:
- reuse one helper for actionable Docker-local file-not-found errors
across document/image/video/audio local-media send paths
- include /outputs/... alongside /output/... in the container-local
path hint
- soften the gateway startup warning so it does not imply custom
host-visible mounts are broken; the warning now targets the specific
risky pattern of emitting container-local MEDIA paths without an
explicit export mount
- add focused regressions for /outputs/... and non-document media hint
coverage
This keeps the salvage aligned with the actual MEDIA delivery problem on
current main while reducing false-positive operator messaging.
When _send_fallback_final() is called with nothing new to deliver
(the visible partial already matches final_text), the last edit may
still show the cursor character because fallback mode was entered
after a failed edit. Before this fix the early-return path left
_already_sent = True without attempting to strip the cursor, so the
message stayed frozen with a visible ▉ permanently.
Adds a best-effort edit inside the empty-continuation branch to clean
the cursor off the last-sent text. Harmless when fallback mode
wasn't actually armed or when the cursor isn't present. If the strip
edit itself fails (flood still active), we return without crashing
and without corrupting _last_sent_text.
Adapted from PR #7429 onto current main — the surrounding fallback
block grew the #10807 stale-prefix handling since #7429 was written,
so the cursor strip lives in the new else-branch where we still
return early.
3 unit tests covering: cursor stripped on empty continuation, no edit
attempted when cursor is not configured, cursor-strip edit failure
handled without crash.
Originally proposed as PR #7429.
During gateway shutdown, a message arriving while
cancel_background_tasks is mid-await (inside asyncio.gather) spawns
a fresh _process_message_background task via handle_message and adds
it to self._background_tasks. The original implementation's
_background_tasks.clear() at the end of cancel_background_tasks
dropped the reference; the task ran untracked against a disconnecting
adapter, logged send-failures, and lingered until it completed on
its own.
Fix: wrap the cancel+gather in a bounded loop (MAX_DRAIN_ROUNDS=5).
If new tasks appeared during the gather, cancel them in the next
round. The .clear() at the end is preserved as a safety net for
any task that appeared after MAX_DRAIN_ROUNDS — but in practice the
drain stabilizes in 1-2 rounds.
Tests: tests/gateway/test_cancel_background_drain.py — 3 cases.
- test_cancel_background_tasks_drains_late_arrivals: spawn M1, start
cancel, inject M2 during M1's shielded cleanup, verify M2 is
cancelled.
- test_cancel_background_tasks_handles_no_tasks: no-op path still
terminates cleanly.
- test_cancel_background_tasks_bounded_rounds: baseline — single
task cancels in one round, loop terminates.
Regression-guard validated: against the unpatched implementation,
the late-arrival test fails with exactly the expected message
('task leaked'). With the fix it passes.
Blast radius is shutdown-only; the audit classified this as MED.
Shipping because the fix is small and the hygiene is worth it.
While investigating the audit's other MEDs (busy-handler double-ack,
Discord ExecApprovalView double-resolve, UpdatePromptView
double-resolve), I verified all three were false positives — the
check-and-set patterns have no await between them, so they're
atomic on single-threaded asyncio. No fix needed for those.
When a streaming edit fails mid-stream (flood control, transport error)
and a tool boundary arrives before the fallback threshold is reached,
the pre-boundary tail in `_accumulated` was silently discarded by
`_reset_segment_state`. The user saw a frozen partial message and
missing words on the other side of the tool call.
Flush the undelivered tail as a continuation message before the reset,
computed relative to the last successfully-delivered prefix so we don't
duplicate content the user already saw.
When Discord splits a long message at 2000 chars, _enqueue_text_event
buffers each chunk and schedules a _flush_text_batch task with a
short delay. If another chunk lands while the prior flush task is
already inside handle_message, _enqueue_text_event calls
prior_task.cancel() — and without asyncio.shield, CancelledError
propagates from the flush task into handle_message → the agent's
streaming request, aborting the response the user was waiting on.
Reproducer: user sends a 3000-char prompt (split by Discord into 2
messages). Chunk 1 lands, flush delay starts, chunk 2 lands during
the brief window when chunk 1's flush has already committed to
handle_message. Agent's current streaming response is cancelled
with CancelledError, user sees a truncated or missing reply.
Fix (gateway/platforms/discord.py):
- Wrap the handle_message call in asyncio.shield so the inner
dispatch is protected from the outer task's cancel.
- Add an except asyncio.CancelledError clause so the outer task
still exits cleanly when cancel lands during the sleep window
(before the pop) — semantics for that path are unchanged.
The new flush task spawned by the follow-up chunk still handles its
own batch via the normal pending-message / active-session machinery
in base.py, so follow-ups are not lost.
Tests: tests/gateway/test_text_batching.py —
test_shield_protects_handle_message_from_cancel. Tracks a distinct
first_handle_cancelled event so the assertion fails cleanly when the
shield is missing (verified by stashing the fix and re-running).
Live E2E on the live-loaded DiscordAdapter:
first_handle_cancelled: False (shield worked)
first_handle_completed: True (handle_message ran to completion)
Two related race conditions in gateway/platforms/base.py that could
produce duplicate agent runs or silently drop messages. Neither is
specific to any one platform — all adapters inherit this logic.
R5 (HIGH) — duplicate agent spawn on turn chain
In _process_message_background, the pending-drain path deleted
_active_sessions[session_key] before awaiting typing_task.cancel()
and then recursively awaiting _process_message_background for the
queued event. During the typing_task await, a fresh inbound message
M3 could pass the Level-1 guard (entry now missing), set its own
Event, and spawn a second _process_message_background for the same
session_key — two agents running simultaneously, duplicate responses,
duplicate tool calls.
Fix: keep the _active_sessions entry populated and only clear() the
Event. The guard stays live, so any concurrent inbound message takes
the busy-handler path (queue + interrupt) as intended.
R6 (MED-HIGH) — message dropped during finally cleanup
The finally block has two await points (typing_task, stop_typing)
before it deletes _active_sessions. A message arriving in that
window passes the guard (entry still live), lands in
_pending_messages via the busy-handler — and then the unconditional
del removes the guard with that message still queued. Nothing
drains it; the user never gets a reply.
Fix: before deleting _active_sessions in finally, pop any late
pending_messages entry and spawn a drain task for it. Only delete
_active_sessions when no pending is waiting.
Tests: tests/gateway/test_pending_drain_race.py — three regression
cases. Validated: without the fix, two of the three fail exactly
where the races manifest (duplicate-spawn guard loses identity,
late-arrival 'LATE' message not in processed list).
Gateway startup leaks aiohttp.ClientSession (and other partial-init
resources) when an adapter's connect() returns False or raises. The
adapter is never added to self.adapters, so the shutdown path at
gateway/run.py:2426 never calls disconnect() on it — Python GC later
logs 'Unclosed client session' at process exit.
Seen on 2026-04-18 18:08:16 during a double --replace takeover cycle:
one of the partial-init sessions survived past shutdown and emitted
the warning right before status=75/TEMPFAIL.
Fix:
- New GatewayRunner._safe_adapter_disconnect() helper — calls
adapter.disconnect() and swallows any exception. Used on error paths.
- Connect loop calls it in both failure branches: success=False and
except Exception.
- Adapter disconnect() implementations are already expected to be
idempotent and tolerate partial-init state (they all guard on
self._http_session / self._bridge_process before touching them).
Tests: tests/gateway/test_safe_adapter_disconnect.py — 3 cases verify
the helper forwards to disconnect, swallows exceptions, and tolerates
platform=None.
Any recognized slash command now bypasses the Level-1 active-session
guard instead of queueing + interrupting. A mid-run /model (or
/reasoning, /voice, /insights, /title, /resume, /retry, /undo,
/compress, /usage, /provider, /reload-mcp, /sethome, /reset) used to
interrupt the agent AND get silently discarded by the slash-command
safety net — zero-char response, dropped tool calls.
Root cause:
- Discord registers 41 native slash commands via tree.command().
- Only 14 were in ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS.
- The other ~15 user-facing ones fell through base.py:handle_message
to the busy-session handler, which calls running_agent.interrupt()
AND queues the text.
- After the aborted run, gateway/run.py:9912 correctly identifies the
queued text as a slash command and discards it — but the damage
(interrupt + zero-char response) already happened.
Fix:
- should_bypass_active_session() now returns True for any resolvable
slash command. ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS stays as the subset
with dedicated Level-2 handlers (documentation + tests).
- gateway/run.py adds a catch-all after the dedicated handlers that
returns a user-visible "agent busy — wait or /stop first" response
for any other resolvable command.
- Unknown text / file-path-like messages are unchanged — they still
queue.
Also:
- gateway/platforms/discord.py logs the invoker identity on every
slash command (user id + name + channel + guild) so future
ghost-command reports can be triaged without guessing.
Tests:
- 15 new parametrized cases in test_command_bypass_active_session.py
cover every previously-broken Discord slash command.
- Existing tests for /stop, /new, /approve, /deny, /help, /status,
/agents, /background, /steer, /update, /queue still pass.
- test_steer.py's ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS check still passes.
Fixes#5057. Related: #6252, #10370, #4665.
When `message.from_user` is None — which can happen for forwarded messages,
anonymous admin mode in groups, or certain Telegram client edge cases —
`_build_message_event` set `source.user_id` to None. This caused:
1. `_is_user_authorized()` to early-return False (`if not user_id: return False`)
2. The access check never compared against `TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS` even when
the user actually was in the allowlist
3. The pairing flow fired and generated a code for `user_id=None`
4. The pairing approval saved an entry under the literal string key "null"
5. The user was effectively locked out because their real user_id never
matched the "null" key on subsequent messages
For DMs (`chat_type == "dm"`), Telegram guarantees `chat.id == user.id` —
they are the same numeric ID for private chats. Falling back to `chat.id`
when `from_user` is None for DMs restores the expected access-control
behavior without weakening it (group/channel chats correctly stay None).
Also adds a parallel `user_name` fallback to `chat.full_name` so the
display name still works in the same edge case.
Follow-up to #12301.
The drain-timeout branch of _stop_impl() was iterating the drain-start
snapshot (active_agents) when marking sessions resume_pending. That
snapshot can include sessions that finished gracefully during the drain
window — marking them would give their next turn a stray
'your previous turn was interrupted by a gateway restart' system note
even though the prior turn actually completed cleanly.
Iterate self._running_agents at timeout time instead, mirroring
_interrupt_running_agents() exactly:
- only sessions still blocking the shutdown get marked
- pending sentinels (AIAgent construction not yet complete) are skipped
Changes:
- gateway/run.py: swap active_agents.keys() for filtered
self._running_agents.items() iteration in the drain-timeout mark loop.
- tests/gateway/test_restart_resume_pending.py: two regression tests —
finisher-during-drain not marked, pending sentinel not marked.
The shutdown banner promised "send any message after restart to resume
where you left off" but the code did the opposite: a drain-timeout
restart skipped the .clean_shutdown marker, which made the next startup
call suspend_recently_active(), which marked the session suspended,
which made get_or_create_session() spawn a fresh session_id with a
'Session automatically reset. Use /resume...' notice — contradicting
the banner.
Introduce a resume_pending state on SessionEntry that is distinct from
suspended. Drain-timeout shutdown flags active sessions resume_pending
instead of letting startup-wide suspension destroy them. The next
message on the same session_key preserves the session_id, reloads the
transcript, and the agent receives a reason-aware restart-resume
system note that subsumes the existing tool-tail auto-continue note
(PR #9934).
Terminal escalation still flows through the existing
.restart_failure_counts stuck-loop counter (PR #7536, threshold 3) —
no parallel counter on SessionEntry. suspended still wins over
resume_pending in get_or_create_session() so genuinely stuck sessions
converge to a clean slate.
Spec: PR #11852 (BrennerSpear). Implementation follows the spec with
the approved correction (reuse .restart_failure_counts rather than
adding a resume_attempts field).
Changes:
- gateway/session.py: SessionEntry.resume_pending/resume_reason/
last_resume_marked_at + to_dict/from_dict; SessionStore
.mark_resume_pending()/clear_resume_pending(); get_or_create_session()
returns existing entry when resume_pending (suspended still wins);
suspend_recently_active() skips resume_pending entries.
- gateway/run.py: _stop_impl() drain-timeout branch marks active
sessions resume_pending before _interrupt_running_agents();
_run_agent() injects reason-aware restart-resume system note that
subsumes the tool-tail case; successful-turn cleanup also clears
resume_pending next to _clear_restart_failure_count();
_notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown() softens the restart banner to
'I'll try to resume where you left off' (honest about stuck-loop
escalation).
- tests/gateway/test_restart_resume_pending.py: 29 new tests covering
SessionEntry roundtrip, mark/clear helpers, get_or_create_session
precedence (suspended > resume_pending), suspend_recently_active
skip, drain-timeout mark reason (restart vs shutdown), system-note
injection decision tree (including tool-tail subsumption), banner
wording, and stuck-loop escalation override.
* feat(steer): /steer <prompt> injects a mid-run note after the next tool call
Adds a new slash command that sits between /queue (turn boundary) and
interrupt. /steer <text> stashes the message on the running agent and
the agent loop appends it to the LAST tool result's content once the
current tool batch finishes. The model sees it as part of the tool
output on its next iteration.
No interrupt is fired, no new user turn is inserted, and no prompt
cache invalidation happens beyond the normal per-turn tool-result
churn. Message-role alternation is preserved — we only modify an
existing role:"tool" message's content.
Wiring
------
- hermes_cli/commands.py: register /steer + add to ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS.
- run_agent.py: add _pending_steer state, AIAgent.steer(), _drain_pending_steer(),
_apply_pending_steer_to_tool_results(); drain at end of both parallel and
sequential tool executors; clear on interrupt; return leftover as
result['pending_steer'] if the agent exits before another tool batch.
- cli.py: /steer handler — route to agent.steer() when running, fall back to
the regular queue otherwise; deliver result['pending_steer'] as next turn.
- gateway/run.py: running-agent intercept calls running_agent.steer(); idle-agent
path strips the prefix and forwards as a regular user message.
- tui_gateway/server.py: new session.steer JSON-RPC method.
- ui-tui: SessionSteerResponse type + local /steer slash command that calls
session.steer when ui.busy, otherwise enqueues for the next turn.
Fallbacks
---------
- Agent exits mid-steer → surfaces in run_conversation result as pending_steer
so CLI/gateway deliver it as the next user turn instead of silently dropping it.
- All tools skipped after interrupt → re-stashes pending_steer for the caller.
- No active agent → /steer reduces to sending the text as a normal message.
Tests
-----
- tests/run_agent/test_steer.py — accept/reject, concatenation, drain,
last-tool-result injection, multimodal list content, thread safety,
cleared-on-interrupt, registry membership, bypass-set membership.
- tests/gateway/test_steer_command.py — running agent, pending sentinel,
missing steer() method, rejected payload, empty payload.
- tests/gateway/test_command_bypass_active_session.py — /steer bypasses
the Level-1 base adapter guard.
- tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py — session.steer RPC paths.
72/72 targeted tests pass under scripts/run_tests.sh.
* feat(steer): register /steer in Discord's native slash tree
Discord's app_commands tree is a curated subset of slash commands (not
derived from COMMAND_REGISTRY like Telegram/Slack). /steer already
works there as plain text (routes through handle_message → base
adapter bypass → runner), but registering it here adds Discord's
native autocomplete + argument hint UI so users can discover and
type it like any other first-class command.
base.py's _keep_typing refresh loop calls send_typing every ~2s while
the agent is processing. If signal-cli returns NETWORK_FAILURE for the
recipient (offline, unroutable, group membership lost), the unmitigated
path was a WARNING log every 2 seconds for as long as the agent stayed
busy — a user report showed 1048 warnings in 41 minutes for one
offline contact, plus the matching volume of pointless RPC traffic to
signal-cli.
- _rpc() accepts log_failures=False so callers can route repeated
expected failures (typing) to DEBUG while keeping send/receive at
WARNING.
- send_typing() tracks consecutive failures per chat. First failure
still logs WARNING so transport issues remain visible; subsequent
failures log at DEBUG. After three consecutive failures we skip the
RPC during an exponential cooldown (16s, 32s, 60s cap) so we stop
hammering signal-cli for a recipient it can't deliver to. A
successful sendTyping resets the counters.
- _stop_typing_indicator() clears the backoff state so the next agent
turn starts fresh.
E2E simulation against the reported 41-minute window: RPCs drop from
1230 to 45 (-96%), log lines from 1048 WARNINGs to 1 WARNING + 44
DEBUGs.
Credits kshitijk4poor (#12056) for the _rpc log_failures kwarg idea;
the broader restructure in that PR (nested per-chat loop inside
send_typing) is avoided here in favour of stateful backoff that
preserves base.py's existing _keep_typing architecture.
When a Telegram /restart fires and PTB's graceful-shutdown `get_updates`
ACK call times out ("When polling for updates is restarted, updates may
be received twice" in gateway.log), the new gateway receives the same
/restart again and restarts a second time — a self-perpetuating loop.
Record the triggering update_id in `.restart_last_processed.json` when
handling /restart. On the next process, reject a /restart whose
update_id <= the recorded one as a stale redelivery. 5-minute staleness
guard so an orphaned marker can't block a legitimately new /restart.
- gateway/platforms/base.py: add `platform_update_id` to MessageEvent
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py: propagate `update.update_id` through
_build_message_event for text/command/location/media handlers
- gateway/run.py: write dedup marker in _handle_restart_command;
_is_stale_restart_redelivery checks it before processing /restart
- tests/gateway/test_restart_redelivery_dedup.py: 9 new tests covering
fresh restart, redelivery, staleness window, cross-platform,
malformed-marker resilience, and no-update_id (CLI) bypass
Only active for Telegram today (the one platform with monotonic
cross-session update ordering); other platforms return False from
_is_stale_restart_redelivery and proceed normally.
Error messages that tell users to install optional extras now use
{sys.executable} -m pip install ... instead of a bare 'pip install
hermes-agent[extra]' string. Under the curl installer, bare 'pip'
resolves to system pip, which either fails with PEP 668
externally-managed-environment or installs into the wrong Python.
Affects: hermes dashboard, hermes web server startup, mcp_serve,
hermes doctor Bedrock check, CLI voice mode, voice_mode tool runtime
error, Discord voice-channel join failure message.
Extend forum support from PR #10145:
- REST path (_send_discord): forum thread creation now uploads media
files as multipart attachments on the starter message in a single
call. Previously media files were silently dropped on the forum
path.
- Websocket media paths (_send_file_attachment, send_voice, send_image,
send_animation — covers send_image_file, send_video, send_document
transitively): forum channels now go through a new _forum_post_file
helper that creates a thread with the file as starter content,
instead of failing via channel.send(file=...) which forums reject.
- _send_to_forum chunk follow-up failures are collected into
raw_response['warnings'] so partial-send outcomes surface.
- Process-local probe cache (_DISCORD_CHANNEL_TYPE_PROBE_CACHE) avoids
GET /channels/{id} on every uncached send after the first.
- Dedup of TestSendDiscordMedia that the PR merge-resolution left
behind.
- Docs: Forum Channels section under website/docs/user-guide/messaging/discord.md.
Tests: 117 passed (22 new for forum+media, probe cache, warnings).
* fix(gateway): detect legacy hermes.service units from pre-rename installs
Older Hermes installs used a different service name (hermes.service) before
the rename to hermes-gateway.service. When both units remain installed, they
fight over the same bot token — after PR #5646's signal-recovery change,
this manifests as a 30-second SIGTERM flap loop between the two services.
Detection is an explicit allowlist (no globbing) plus an ExecStart content
check, so profile units (hermes-gateway-<profile>.service) and unrelated
third-party services named 'hermes' are never matched.
Wired into systemd_install, systemd_status, gateway_setup wizard, and the
main hermes setup flow — anywhere we already warn about scope conflicts now
also warns about legacy units.
* feat(gateway): add migrate-legacy command + install-time removal prompt
- New hermes_cli.gateway.remove_legacy_hermes_units() removes legacy
unit files with stop → disable → unlink → daemon-reload. Handles user
and system scopes separately; system scope returns path list when not
running as root so the caller can tell the user to re-run with sudo.
- New 'hermes gateway migrate-legacy' subcommand (with --dry-run and -y)
routes to remove_legacy_hermes_units via gateway_command dispatch.
- systemd_install now offers to remove legacy units BEFORE installing
the new hermes-gateway.service, preventing the SIGTERM flap loop that
hits users who still have pre-rename hermes.service around.
Profile units (hermes-gateway-<profile>.service) remain untouched in
all paths — the legacy allowlist is explicit (_LEGACY_SERVICE_NAMES)
and the ExecStart content check further narrows matches.
* fix(gateway): mark --replace SIGTERM as planned so target exits 0
PR #5646 made SIGTERM exit the gateway with code 1 so systemd's
Restart=on-failure revives it after unexpected kills. But when a user has
two gateway units fighting for the same bot token (e.g. legacy
hermes.service + hermes-gateway.service from a pre-rename install), the
--replace takeover itself becomes the 'unexpected' SIGTERM — the loser
exits 1, systemd revives it 30s later, and the cycle flaps indefinitely.
Before calling terminate_pid(), --replace now writes a short-lived marker
file naming the target PID + start_time. The target's shutdown_signal_handler
consumes the marker and, when it names this process, leaves
_signal_initiated_shutdown=False so the final exit code stays 0.
Staleness defences:
- PID + start_time combo prevents PID reuse matching an old marker
- Marker older than 60s is treated as stale and discarded
- Marker is unlinked on first read even if it doesn't match this process
- Replacer clears the marker post-loop + on permission-denied give-up
Cherry-picked from #10985 by pedh, adapted to current main:
* Keeps main's full group-chat gating (require_mention + allowed_users +
free_response_chats + mention_patterns) — PR's simpler subset dropped.
* Keeps main's fire-and-forget process() dispatch + session_webhook
fallback for SDK >= 0.24.
* Picks up PR's REQUIRES_EDIT_FINALIZE capability flag on
BasePlatformAdapter + finalize kwarg on edit_message(), plumbed through
stream_consumer. Default False so Telegram/Slack/Discord/Matrix stay
on the zero-overhead fast path.
* DingTalk AI Card lifecycle: per-chat _message_contexts, two-card flow
(tool-progress + final response) with sibling auto-close driven by
reply_to, idempotent 🤔Thinking → 🥳Done swap, $alibabacloud-dingtalk$
for media URL resolution (replaces raw HTTP that was 403-ing).
* pyproject: dingtalk extra now dingtalk-stream>=0.20,<1 +
alibabacloud-dingtalk>=2.0.0 + qrcode.

Follow-up polish on top of the cherry-picked #11023 commit.
- feishu_comment_rules.py: replace import-time "~/.hermes" expanduser fallback
with get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants (canonical, profile-safe).
- tools/feishu_doc_tool.py, tools/feishu_drive_tool.py: drop the
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(asyncio.to_thread(...)) dance.
Tool handlers run synchronously in a worker thread with no running loop, so
the RuntimeError branch was always the one that executed. Calls client.request
directly now. Unused asyncio import removed.
- tests/gateway/test_feishu.py: add register_p2_customized_event to the mock
EventDispatcher builder so the existing adapter test matches the new handler
registration for drive.notice.comment_add_v1.
- scripts/release.py: map liujinkun@bytedance.com -> liujinkun2025 for
contributor attribution on release notes.
- Full comment handler: parse drive.notice.comment_add_v1 events, build
timeline, run agent, deliver reply with chunking support.
- 5 tools: feishu_doc_read, feishu_drive_list_comments,
feishu_drive_list_comment_replies, feishu_drive_reply_comment,
feishu_drive_add_comment.
- 3-tier access control rules (exact doc > wildcard "*" > top-level >
defaults) with per-field fallback. Config via
~/.hermes/feishu_comment_rules.json, mtime-cached hot-reload.
- Self-reply filter using generalized self_open_id (supports future
user-identity subscriptions). Receiver check: only process events
where the bot is the @mentioned target.
- Smart timeline selection, long text chunking, semantic text extraction,
session sharing per document, wiki link resolution.

Follow-up to the cherry-picked contributor fix:
- Extract `_remember_chat_req_id()` and bound it at DEDUP_MAX_SIZE like
`_reply_req_ids` — the unbounded dict would grow forever on a long-
running gateway with many chats.
- Move the cache write to AFTER the group/DM policy check so we don't
cache req_ids from blocked senders.
- Revert the undocumented `is_group` change: the contributor flipped
`chattype == 'group'` to `bool(chatid)`, which wasn't mentioned in
the PR description and weakens the signal (chattype is the explicit
hint; relying on chatid presence assumes DMs never carry it). Keep
the original check.
- Drop the defensive `getattr(self, '_last_chat_req_ids', {})` reads
at both send sites — the attribute is initialized in __init__.
- Update `test_send_uses_passive_reply_stream_...` → `_markdown_...`
to match the new msgtype, and add a new TestWeComZombieSessionFix
class covering device_id presence in subscribe, per-chat req_id
caching + bounding, blocked-sender cache exclusion, and the group
APP_CMD_RESPONSE fallback path.
Follow-up to WideLee's salvaged PR #11582.
Back-compat for QQ_HOME_CHANNEL → QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL rename:
- gateway/config.py reads QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL, falls back to QQ_HOME_CHANNEL
with a one-shot deprecation warning so users on the old name aren't
silently broken.
- cron/scheduler.py: _HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS['qqbot'] now maps to the new
name; _get_home_target_chat_id falls back to the legacy name via a
_LEGACY_HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS table.
- hermes_cli/status.py + hermes_cli/setup.py: honor both names when
displaying or checking for missing home channels.
- hermes_cli/config.py: keep legacy QQ_HOME_CHANNEL[_NAME] in
_EXTRA_ENV_KEYS so .env sanitization still recognizes them.
Scope cleanup:
- Drop qrcode from core dependencies and requirements.txt (remains in
messaging/dingtalk/feishu extras). _qqbot_render_qr already degrades
gracefully when qrcode is missing, printing a 'pip install qrcode' tip
and falling back to URL-only display.
- Restore @staticmethod on QQAdapter._detect_message_type (it doesn't
use self). Revert the test change that was only needed when it was
converted to an instance method.
- Reset uv.lock to origin/main; the PR's stale lock also included
unrelated changes (atroposlib source URL, hermes-agent version bump,
fastapi additions) that don't belong.
Verified E2E:
- Existing user (QQ_HOME_CHANNEL set): gateway + cron both pick up the
legacy name; deprecation warning logs once.
- Fresh user (QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL set): gateway + cron use new name,
no warning.
- Both set: new name wins on both surfaces.
Targeted tests: 296 passed, 4 skipped (qqbot + cron + hermes_cli).
- Re-export _ssrf_redirect_guard from __init__.py
- Fix _parse_json @staticmethod using self._log_tag
- Update test_detect_message_type to call as instance method
- Fix mock.patch path for httpx.AsyncClient in adapter submodule
- Remove @staticmethod from _detect_message_type, _convert_silk_to_wav,
_convert_raw_to_wav, _convert_ffmpeg_to_wav so they can use self._log_tag
- Replace all remaining hardcoded "QQBot" log args with self._log_tag
- Downgrade STT routine flow logs (download, convert, success) from info to debug
- Keep warning level for actual failures (STT failed, ffmpeg error, empty transcript)
Three closely-related fixes for shutdown / lifecycle hygiene.
1. _release_running_agent_state(session_key) helper
----------------------------------------------------
Per-running-agent state lived in three dicts that drifted out of sync
across cleanup sites:
self._running_agents — AIAgent per session_key
self._running_agents_ts — start timestamp per session_key
self._busy_ack_ts — last busy-ack timestamp per session_key
Inventory before this PR:
8 sites: del self._running_agents[key]
— only 1 (stale-eviction) cleaned all three
— 1 cleaned _running_agents + _running_agents_ts only
— 6 cleaned _running_agents only
Each missed entry was a (str, float) tuple per session per gateway
lifetime — small, persistent, accumulates across thousands of
sessions over months. Per-platform leaks compounded.
This change adds a single helper that pops all three dicts in
lockstep, and replaces every bare 'del self._running_agents[key]'
site with it. Per-session state that PERSISTS across turns
(_session_model_overrides, _voice_mode, _pending_approvals,
_update_prompt_pending) is intentionally NOT touched here — those
have their own lifecycles tied to user actions, not turn boundaries.
2. _running_agents_ts cleared in _stop_impl
----------------------------------------
Was being missed alongside _running_agents.clear(); now included.
3. SessionDB close() in _stop_impl
---------------------------------
The SQLite WAL write lock stayed held by the old gateway connection
until Python actually exited — causing 'database is locked' errors
when --replace launched a new gateway against the same file. We
now explicitly close both self._db and self.session_store._db
inside _stop_impl, with try/except so a flaky close on one doesn't
block the other.
Tests
-----
tests/gateway/test_session_state_cleanup.py — 10 cases covering:
* helper pops all three dicts atomically
* idempotent on missing/empty keys
* preserves other sessions
* tolerates older runners without _busy_ack_ts attribute
* thread-safe under concurrent release
* regression guard: scans gateway/run.py and fails if a future
contributor reintroduces 'del self._running_agents[...]'
outside docstrings
* SessionDB close called on both holders during shutdown
* shutdown tolerates missing session_store
* shutdown tolerates close() raising on one db (other still closes)
Broader gateway suite: 3108 passed (vs 3100 on baseline) — failure
delta is +8 net passes; the 10 remaining failures are pre-existing
cross-test pollution / missing optional deps (matrix needs olm,
signal/telegram approval flake, dingtalk Mock wiring), all reproduce
on stashed baseline.
Telegram's MarkdownV2 has no table syntax — pipes get backslash-escaped
and tables render as noisy unaligned text. format_message now detects
GFM-style pipe tables (header row + delimiter row + optional body) and
wraps them in ``` fences before the existing MarkdownV2 conversion runs.
Telegram renders fenced code blocks as monospace preformatted text with
columns intact.
Tables already inside an existing code block are left alone. Plain
prose with pipes, lone '---' horizontal rules, and non-table content
are unaffected.
Closes the recurring community request to stop having to ask the agent
to re-render tables as code blocks manually.
SessionStore._entries grew unbounded. Every unique
(platform, chat_id, thread_id, user_id) tuple ever seen was kept in
RAM and rewritten to sessions.json on every message. A Discord bot
in 100 servers x 100 channels x ~100 rotating users accumulates on
the order of 10^5 entries after a few months; each sessions.json
write becomes an O(n) fsync. Nothing trimmed this — there was no
TTL, no cap, no eviction path.
Changes
-------
* SessionStore.prune_old_entries(max_age_days) — drops entries whose
updated_at is older than the cutoff. Preserves:
- suspended entries (user paused them via /stop for later resume)
- entries with an active background process attached
Pruning is functionally identical to a natural reset-policy expiry:
SQLite transcript stays, session_key -> session_id mapping dropped,
returning user gets a fresh session.
* GatewayConfig.session_store_max_age_days (default 90; 0 disables).
Serialized in to_dict/from_dict, coerced from bad types / negatives
to safe defaults. No migration needed — missing field -> 90 days.
* _session_expiry_watcher calls prune_old_entries once per hour
(first tick is immediate). Uses the existing watcher loop so no
new background task is created.
Why not more aggressive
-----------------------
90 days is long enough that legitimate long-idle users (seasonal,
vacation, etc.) aren't surprised — pruning just means they get a
fresh session on return, same outcome they'd get from any other
reset-policy trigger. Admins can lower it via config; 0 disables.
Tests
-----
tests/gateway/test_session_store_prune.py — 17 cases covering:
* entry age based on updated_at, not created_at
* max_age_days=0 disables; negative coerces to 0
* suspended + active-process entries are skipped
* _save fires iff something was removed
* disk JSON reflects post-prune state
* thread safety against concurrent readers
* config field roundtrips + graceful fallback on bad values
* watcher gate logic (first tick prunes, subsequent within 1h don't)
119 broader session/gateway tests remain green.
- Use certifi CA bundle for aiohttp SSL in qr_login(), start(), and
send_weixin_direct() to fix SSL verification failures against
Tencent's iLink server on macOS (Homebrew OpenSSL lacks system certs)
- Fix QR code data: encode qrcode_img_content (full liteapp URL) instead
of raw hex token — WeChat needs the full URL to resolve the scan
- Render ASCII QR on refresh so the user can re-scan without restarting
- Improve error message on QR render failure to show the actual exception
Tested on macOS (Apple Silicon, Homebrew Python 3.13)
iLink context_token has a limited TTL. When no user message has arrived
for an extended period (e.g. overnight), cron-initiated pushes fail with
errcode -14 (session timeout).
Tested that iLink accepts sends without context_token as a degraded
fallback, so we now automatically strip the expired token and retry
once. This keeps scheduled push messages (weather, digests, etc.)
working reliably without requiring a user message to refresh the
session first.

- _send_text_chunk() catches iLinkDeliveryError with session-expired
errcode (-14) and retries without context_token
- Stale tokens are cleared from ContextTokenStore on session expiry
- All 34 existing weixin tests pass
Previously a message like `<@&1490963422786093149> help` would spawn a
thread literally named `<@&1490963422786093149> help`, exposing raw
Discord mention markers in the thread list. Only user mentions
(`<@id>`) were being stripped upstream — role mentions (`<@&id>`) and
channel mentions (`<#id>`) leaked through.
Fix: strip all three mention patterns in `_auto_create_thread` before
building the thread name. Collapse runs of whitespace left by the
removal. If the entire content was mention-only, fall back to 'Hermes'
instead of an empty title.
Fixes#6336.
Tests: two new regression guards in test_discord_slash_commands.py
covering mixed-mention content and mention-only content.
Free-response channels already bypassed the @mention gate so users could
chat inline with the bot, but auto-threading still fired on every
message — spinning off a thread per message and defeating the
lightweight-chat purpose.
Fix: fold `is_free_channel` into `skip_thread` so threading is skipped
whenever the channel is in DISCORD_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS (via env or
discord.free_response_channels in config.yaml).
Net change: one line in _handle_message + one regression test.

* fix(gateway): bound _agent_cache with LRU cap + idle TTL eviction
The per-session AIAgent cache was unbounded. Each cached AIAgent holds
LLM clients, tool schemas, memory providers, and a conversation buffer.
In a long-lived gateway serving many chats/threads, cached agents
accumulated indefinitely — entries were only evicted on /new, /model,
or session reset.
Changes:
- Cache is now an OrderedDict so we can pop least-recently-used entries.
- _enforce_agent_cache_cap() pops entries beyond _AGENT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=64
when a new agent is inserted. LRU order is refreshed via move_to_end()
on cache hits.
- _sweep_idle_cached_agents() evicts entries whose AIAgent has been idle
longer than _AGENT_CACHE_IDLE_TTL_SECS=3600s. Runs from the existing
_session_expiry_watcher so no new background task is created.
- The expiry watcher now also pops the cache entry after calling
_cleanup_agent_resources on a flushed session — previously the agent
was shut down but its reference stayed in the cache dict.
- Evicted agents have _cleanup_agent_resources() called on a daemon
thread so the cache lock isn't held during slow teardown.
Both tuning constants live at module scope so tests can monkeypatch
them without touching class state.
Tests: 7 new cases in test_agent_cache.py covering LRU eviction,
move_to_end refresh, cleanup thread dispatch, idle TTL sweep,
defensive handling of agents without _last_activity_ts, and plain-dict
test fixture tolerance.
* tweak: bump _AGENT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE 64 -> 128
* fix(gateway): never evict mid-turn agents; live spillover tests
The prior commit could tear down an active agent if its session_key
happened to be LRU when the cap was exceeded. AIAgent.close() kills
process_registry entries for the task, tears down the terminal
sandbox, closes the OpenAI client (sets self.client = None), and
cascades .close() into any active child subagents — all fatal if
the agent is still processing a turn.
Changes:
- _enforce_agent_cache_cap and _sweep_idle_cached_agents now look at
GatewayRunner._running_agents and skip any entry whose AIAgent
instance is present (identity via id(), so MagicMock doesn't
confuse lookup in tests). _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL is treated
as 'not active' since no real agent exists yet.
- Eviction only considers the LRU-excess window (first size-cap
entries). If an excess slot is held by a mid-turn agent, we skip
it WITHOUT compensating by evicting a newer entry. A freshly
inserted session (zero cache history) shouldn't be punished to
protect a long-lived one that happens to be busy.
- Cache may therefore stay transiently over cap when load spikes;
a WARNING is logged so operators can see it, and the next insert
re-runs the check after some turns have finished.
New tests (TestAgentCacheActiveSafety + TestAgentCacheSpilloverLive):
- Active LRU entry is skipped; no newer entry compensated
- Mixed active/idle excess window: only idle slots go
- All-active cache: no eviction, WARNING logged, all clients intact
- _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL doesn't block other evictions
- Idle-TTL sweep skips active agents
- End-to-end: active agent's .client survives eviction attempt
- Live fill-to-cap with real AIAgents, then spillover
- Live: CAP=4 all active + 1 newcomer — cache grows to 5, no teardown
- Live: 8 threads racing 160 inserts into CAP=16 — settles at 16
- Live: evicted session's next turn gets a fresh agent that works
30 tests pass (13 pre-existing + 17 new). Related gateway suites
(model switch, session reset, proxy, etc.) all green.
* fix(gateway): cache eviction preserves per-task state for session resume
The prior commits called AIAgent.close() on cache-evicted agents, which
tears down process_registry entries, terminal sandbox, and browser
daemon for that task_id — permanently. Fine for session-expiry (session
ended), wrong for cache eviction (session may resume).
Real-world scenario: a user leaves a Telegram session open for 2+ hours,
idle TTL evicts the cached AIAgent, user returns and sends a message.
Conversation history is preserved via SessionStore, but their terminal
sandbox (cwd, env vars, bg shells) and browser state were destroyed.
Fix: split the two cleanup modes.
close() Full teardown — session ended. Kills bg procs,
tears down terminal sandbox + browser daemon,
closes LLM client. Used by session-expiry,
/new, /reset (unchanged).
release_clients() Soft cleanup — session may resume. Closes
LLM client only. Leaves process_registry,
terminal sandbox, browser daemon intact
for the resuming agent to inherit via
shared task_id.
Gateway cache eviction (_enforce_agent_cache_cap, _sweep_idle_cached_agents)
now dispatches _release_evicted_agent_soft on the daemon thread instead
of _cleanup_agent_resources. All session-expiry call sites of
_cleanup_agent_resources are unchanged.
Tests (TestAgentCacheIdleResume, 5 new cases):
- release_clients does NOT call process_registry.kill_all
- release_clients does NOT call cleanup_vm / cleanup_browser
- release_clients DOES close the LLM client (agent.client is None after)
- close() vs release_clients() — semantic contract pinned
- Idle-evicted session's rebuild with same session_id gets same task_id
Updated test_cap_triggers_cleanup_thread to assert the soft path fires
and the hard path does NOT.
35 tests pass in test_agent_cache.py; 67 related tests green.

Fixes#11463: DingTalk channel receives messages but fails to reply
with 'No session_webhook available'.
Two changes:
1. **Fire-and-forget message processing**: process() now dispatches
_on_message as a background task via asyncio.create_task instead of
awaiting it. This ensures the SDK ACK is returned immediately,
preventing heartbeat timeouts and disconnections when message
processing takes longer than the SDK's ACK deadline.
2. **session_webhook extraction fallback**: If ChatbotMessage.from_dict()
fails to map the sessionWebhook field (possible across SDK versions),
the handler now falls back to extracting it directly from the raw
callback data dict using both 'sessionWebhook' and 'session_webhook'
key variants.
Added 3 tests covering webhook extraction, fallback behavior, and
fire-and-forget ACK timing.
Two follow-ups to the cherry-picked PR #9873 (`e3bcc819`):
1. `_is_allowed_user` now uses `getattr(self, '_allowed_*_ids', set())`
so test fixtures that build the adapter via `object.__new__`
(skipping __init__) don't crash with AttributeError.
See AGENTS.md pitfall #17 — same pattern as gateway.run.
2. New 3-case regression coverage in test_discord_bot_auth_bypass.py:
- role-only config bypasses the gateway 'no allowlists' branch
- roles + users combined still authorizes user-allowlist matches
- the role bypass does NOT leak to other platforms (Telegram, etc.)
3. Autouse fixture in test_discord_bot_auth_bypass.py clears all Discord
auth env vars before each test so DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES leakage from
a previous test in the session can't flip later 'should-reject' tests
into false-pass.
Required because the bare cherry-pick of #9873 only added the adapter-
level role check — it didn't cover the gateway-level _is_user_authorized,
which still rejected role-only setups via the 'no allowlists configured'
branch.
Adds a new DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES environment variable that allows filtering
bot interactions by Discord role ID. Uses OR semantics with the existing
DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS - if a user matches either allowlist, they're permitted.
Changes:
- Parse DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES comma-separated role IDs on connect
- Enable members intent when roles are configured (needed for role lookup)
- Update _is_allowed_user() to accept optional author param for direct role check
- Fallback to scanning mutual guilds when author object lacks roles (DMs, voice)
- Fully backwards compatible: no behavior change when env var is unset
Fixes#4466.
Root cause: two sequential authorization gates both independently rejected
bot messages, making DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS completely ineffective.
Gate 1 — `discord.py` `on_message`:
_is_allowed_user ran BEFORE the bot filter, so bot senders were dropped
before the DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS policy was ever evaluated.
Gate 2 — `gateway/run.py` _is_user_authorized:
The gateway-level allowlist check rejected bot IDs with 'Unauthorized
user: <bot_id>' even if they passed Gate 1.
Fix:
gateway/platforms/discord.py — reorder on_message so DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS
runs BEFORE _is_allowed_user. Bots permitted by the filter skip the
user allowlist; non-bots are still checked.
gateway/session.py — add is_bot: bool = False to SessionSource so the
gateway layer can distinguish bot senders.
gateway/platforms/base.py — expose is_bot parameter in build_source.
gateway/platforms/discord.py _handle_message — set is_bot=True when
building the SessionSource for bot authors.
gateway/run.py _is_user_authorized — when source.is_bot is True AND
DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS is 'mentions' or 'all', return True early. Platform
filter already validated the message at on_message; don't re-reject.
Behavior matrix:
| Config | Before | After |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=none (default) | Blocked | Blocked |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=all | Blocked | Allowed |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=mentions + @mention | Blocked | Allowed |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=mentions, no mention | Blocked | Blocked |
| Human in DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS | Allowed | Allowed |
| Human NOT in DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS | Blocked | Blocked |

Closes#11321, closes#10259.
## Problem
The nested /skill command group (category subcommand groups + skill
subcommands) serialized to ~14KB with the default 75-skill catalog,
exceeding Discord's ~8000-byte per-command registration payload. The
entire tree.sync() rejected with error 50035 — ALL slash commands
including the 27 base commands failed to register.
## Fix
Replace the nested Group layout with a single flat Command:
/skill name:<autocomplete> args:<optional string>
Autocomplete options are fetched dynamically by Discord when the user
types — they do NOT count against the per-command registration budget.
So this single command registers at ~200 bytes regardless of how many
skills exist. Scales to thousands of skills with no size calculations,
no splitting, no hidden skills.
UX improvements:
- Discord live-filters by user's typed prefix against BOTH name and
description, so '/skill pdf' finds 'ocr-and-documents' via its
description. More discoverable than clicking through category menus.
- Unknown skill name → ephemeral error pointing user at autocomplete.
- Stable alphabetical ordering across restarts.
## Why not the other proposed approaches
Three prior PRs tried to fit within the 8KB limit by modifying the
nested layout:
- #10214 (njiangk): truncated all descriptions to 'Run <name>' and
category descriptions to 'Skills'. Works but destroys slash picker UX.
- #11385 (LeonSGP43): 40-char description clamp + iterative
trim-largest-category fallback. Works but HIDES skills the user can
no longer invoke via slash — functional regression.
- #10261 (zeapsu): adaptive split into /skill-<cat> top-level groups.
Preserves all skills but pollutes the slash namespace with 20
top-level commands.
All three work around the symptom. The flat autocomplete design
dissolves the problem — there is no payload-size pressure to manage.
## Tests
tests/gateway/test_discord_slash_commands.py — 5 new test cases replace
the 3 old nested-structure tests:
- flat-not-nested structure assertion
- empty skills → no command registered
- callback dispatches the right cmd_key by name
- unknown name → ephemeral error, no dispatch
- large-catalog regression guard (500 skills) — command payload stays
under 500 bytes regardless
E2E validated against real discord.py 2.7.1:
- Command registers as discord.app_commands.Command (not Group).
- Autocomplete filters by name AND description (verified across several
queries including description-only matches like 'pdf' → OCR skill).
- 500-skill catalog returns max 25 results per autocomplete query
(Discord's hard cap), filtered correctly.
- Choice labels formatted as 'name — description' clamped to 100 chars.
- feat: support one-click QR scan to create DingTalk bot and establish connection
- fix(gateway): wrap blocking DingTalkStreamClient.start() with asyncio.to_thread()
- fix(gateway): extract message fields from CallbackMessage payload instead of ChatbotMessage
- fix(gateway): add oapi.dingtalk.com to allowed webhook URL domains
- stop rewriting markdown tables, headings, and links before delivery
- keep markdown table blocks and headings together during chunking
- update Weixin tests and docs for native markdown rendering
Closes#10308
The Weixin adapter's send() method previously split and delivered the
raw response text without first extracting MEDIA: tags or bare local
file paths. This meant images, documents, and voice files referenced
by the agent were silently dropped in normal (non-streaming,
non-background) conversations.
Changes:
- In WeixinAdapter.send(), call extract_media() and
extract_local_files() before formatting/splitting text.
- Deliver extracted files via send_image_file(), send_document(),
send_voice(), or send_video() prior to sending text chunks.
- Also fix two minor typing issues in gateway/run.py where
extract_media() tuples were not unpacked correctly in background
and /btw task handlers.
Fixes missing media delivery on Weixin personal accounts.
Three open issues — #8242, #6587, #11345 — all trace to the same root
cause: the image / audio / document download paths in
`DiscordAdapter._handle_message` used plain, unauthenticated HTTP to
fetch `att.url`. That broke in three independent ways:
#8242 cdn.discordapp.com attachment URLs increasingly require the
bot session to download; unauthenticated httpx sees 403
Forbidden, image/voice analysis fail silently.
#6587 Some user environments (VPNs, corporate DNS, tunnels) resolve
cdn.discordapp.com to private-looking IPs. Our is_safe_url()
guard correctly blocks them as SSRF risks, but the user
environment is legitimate — image analysis and voice STT die.
#11345 The document download path skipped is_safe_url() entirely —
raw aiohttp.ClientSession.get(att.url) with no SSRF check,
inconsistent with the image/audio branches.
Unified fix: use `discord.Attachment.read()` as the primary download
path on all three branches. `att.read()` routes through discord.py's
own authenticated HTTPClient, so:
- Discord CDN auth is handled (#8242 resolved).
- Our is_safe_url() gate isn't consulted for the attachment path at
all — the bot session handles networking internally (#6587 resolved).
- All three branches now share the same code path, eliminating the
document-path SSRF gap (#11345 resolved).
Falls back to the existing cache_*_from_url helpers (image/audio) or an
SSRF-gated aiohttp fetch (documents) when `att.read()` is unavailable
or fails — preserves defense-in-depth for any future payload-schema
drift that could slip a non-CDN URL into att.url.
New helpers on DiscordAdapter:
- _read_attachment_bytes(att) — safe att.read() wrapper
- _cache_discord_image(att, ext) — primary + URL fallback
- _cache_discord_audio(att, ext) — primary + URL fallback
- _cache_discord_document(att, ext) — primary + SSRF-gated aiohttp fallback
Tests:
- tests/gateway/test_discord_attachment_download.py — 12 new cases
covering all three helpers: primary path, fallback on missing
.read(), fallback on validator rejection, SSRF guard on document
fallback, aiohttp fallback happy-path, and an E2E case via
_handle_message confirming cache_image_from_url is never invoked
when att.read() succeeds.
- All 11 existing document-handling tests continue to pass via the
aiohttp fallback path (their SimpleNamespace attachments have no
.read(), which triggers the fallback — now SSRF-gated).
Closes#8242, closes#6587, closes#11345.
When a WebSocket-based platform adapter (e.g. QQ Bot) temporarily
loses its connection, send() now polls is_connected for up to 15s
instead of immediately returning a non-retryable failure. If the
auto-reconnect completes within the window, the message is delivered
normally. On timeout, the SendResult is marked retryable=True so the
base class retry mechanism can attempt re-delivery.
Same treatment applied to _send_media().
Adds 4 async tests covering:
- Successful send after simulated reconnection
- Retryable failure on timeout
- Immediate success when already connected
- _send_media reconnection wait
Fixes#11163
DingTalk was the only messaging platform without group-mention gating or a
per-user allowlist. Slack, Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, Matrix, and Mattermost
all support these via config.yaml + matching env vars; this change closes the
gap for DingTalk using the same surface:
Config:
platforms.dingtalk.require_mention: bool (env: DINGTALK_REQUIRE_MENTION)
platforms.dingtalk.mention_patterns: list (env: DINGTALK_MENTION_PATTERNS)
platforms.dingtalk.free_response_chats: list (env: DINGTALK_FREE_RESPONSE_CHATS)
platforms.dingtalk.allowed_users: list (env: DINGTALK_ALLOWED_USERS)
Semantics mirror Telegram's implementation:
- DMs are always accepted (subject to allowed_users).
- Group messages are accepted only when the chat is allowlisted, mention is
not required, the bot was @mentioned (dingtalk_stream sets is_in_at_list),
or the text matches a configured regex wake-word.
- allowed_users matches sender_id / sender_staff_id case-insensitively;
a single "*" disables the check.
Rationale: without this, any DingTalk user in a group chat can trigger the
bot, which makes DingTalk less safe to deploy than the other platforms. A
user's config.yaml already accepts require_mention for dingtalk but the value
was silently ignored.
The send_image_file method in WeixinAdapter used 'path' as parameter
name, but BasePlatformAdapter and gateway callers use 'image_path'.
This mismatch caused image sending to fail when called through the
gateway's extract_media path.
Changed parameter name from 'path' to 'image_path' to match the
interface defined in base.py and the calls in gateway/run.py.
discord.py does not apply a default AllowedMentions to the client, so any
reply whose content contains @everyone/@here or a role mention would ping
the whole server — including verbatim echoes of user input or LLM output
that happens to contain those tokens.
Set a safe default on commands.Bot: everyone=False, roles=False,
users=True, replied_user=True. Operators can opt back in via four
DISCORD_ALLOW_MENTION_* env vars or discord.allow_mentions.* in
config.yaml. No behavior change for normal user/reply pings.

The cherry-picked SDK compat fix (previous commit) wired process() to
parse CallbackMessage.data into a ChatbotMessage, but _extract_text()
was still written against the pre-0.20 payload shape:
* message.text changed from dict {content: ...} → TextContent object.
The old code's str(text) fallback produced 'TextContent(content=...)'
as the agent's input, so every received message came in mangled.
* rich_text moved from message.rich_text (list) to
message.rich_text_content.rich_text_list.
This preserves legacy fallbacks (dict-shaped text, bare rich_text list)
while handling the current SDK layout via hasattr(text, 'content').
Adds regression tests covering:
* webhook domain allowlist (api.*, oapi.*, and hostile lookalikes)
* _IncomingHandler.process is a coroutine function
* _extract_text against TextContent object, dict, rich_text_content,
legacy rich_text, and empty-message cases
Also adds kevinskysunny to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP (release CI
blocks unmapped emails).
Inbound Feishu messages arriving during brief windows when the adapter
loop is unavailable (startup/restart transitions, network-flap reconnect)
were silently dropped with a WARNING log. This matches the symptom in
issue #5499 — and users have reported seeing only a subset of their
messages reach the agent.
Fix: queue pending events in a thread-safe list and spawn a single
drainer thread that replays them once the loop becomes ready. Covers
these scenarios:
* Queue events instead of dropping when loop is None/closed
* Single drainer handles the full queue (not thread-per-event)
* Thread-safe with threading.Lock on the queue and schedule flag
* Handles mid-drain bursts (new events arrive while drainer is working)
* Handles RuntimeError if loop closes between check and submit
* Depth cap (1000) prevents unbounded growth during extended outages
* Drops queue cleanly on disconnect rather than holding forever
* Safety timeout (120s) prevents infinite retention on broken adapters
Based on the approach proposed in #4789 by milkoor, rewritten for
thread-safety and correctness.
Test plan:
* 5 new unit tests (TestPendingInboundQueue) — all passing
* E2E test with real asyncio loop + fake WS thread: 10-event burst
before loop ready → all 10 delivered in order
* E2E concurrent burst test: 20 events queued, 20 more arrive during
drainer dispatch → all 40 delivered, no loss, no duplicates
* All 111 existing feishu tests pass

All 61 TUI-related tests green across 3 consecutive xdist runs.
tests/tui_gateway/test_protocol.py:
- rename `get_messages` → `get_messages_as_conversation` on mock DB (method
was renamed in the real backend, test was still stubbing the old name)
- update tool-message shape expectation: `{role, name, context}` matches
current `_history_to_messages` output, not the legacy `{role, text}`
tests/hermes_cli/test_tui_resume_flow.py:
- `cmd_chat` grew a first-run provider-gate that bailed to "Run: hermes
setup" before `_launch_tui` was ever reached; 3 tests stubbed
`_resolve_last_session` + `_launch_tui` but not the gate
- factored a `main_mod` fixture that stubs `_has_any_provider_configured`,
reused by all three tests
tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py:
- `test_config_set_personality_resets_history_and_returns_info` was flaky
under xdist because the real `_write_config_key` touches
`~/.hermes/config.yaml`, racing with any other worker that writes
config. Stub it in the test.
The Discord voice receive path skipped RFC 3550 §5.1 padding handling,
passing padding-contaminated payloads into DAVE E2EE decrypt and Opus
decode. Symptoms in live VC sessions: deaf inbound speech, intermittent
empty STT results, "corrupted stream" decode errors — especially on the
first reply after join.
When the P bit is set in the RTP header, the last payload byte holds the
count of trailing padding bytes (including itself) that must be removed.
Receive pipeline now follows the spec order:
1. RTP header parse
2. NaCl transport decrypt (aead_xchacha20_poly1305_rtpsize)
3. strip encrypted RTP extension data from start
4. strip RTP padding from end if P bit set ← was missing
5. DAVE inner media decrypt
6. Opus decode
Drops malformed packets where pad_len is 0 or exceeds payload length.
Adds 7 integration tests covering valid padded packets, the X+P combined
case, padding under DAVE passthrough, and three malformed-padding paths.

mautrix auto-registers DecryptionDispatcher when client.crypto is set.
The adapter also registered _on_encrypted_event for the same event type.
_on_encrypted_event had zero awaits and won the race to mark event IDs
in the dedup set, causing _on_room_message to drop successfully decrypted
events from DecryptionDispatcher. The retry loop masked this by re-decrypting
every message ~4 seconds later.
Remove _on_encrypted_event entirely. DecryptionDispatcher handles decryption;
genuinely undecryptable events are logged by mautrix and retried on next
key exchange.

Unencrypted audio/video/documents in plaintext rooms were passed as MXC
URLs that require authentication the agent doesn't have, resulting
in 401 errors.
Refs #3487, #3806
* fix(matrix): detect stale OTK conflict on startup and fail closed
When crypto state is wiped but the same device ID is reused, the
homeserver may still hold one-time keys signed with the previous
identity key. Identity key re-upload succeeds but OTK uploads fail
with "already exists" and a signature mismatch. Peers cannot
establish new Olm sessions, so all new messages are undecryptable.
Now proactively flushes OTKs via share_keys() during connect() and
catches the "already exists" error with an actionable log message
telling the operator to purge the device from the homeserver or
generate a fresh device ID.
Also documents the crypto store recovery procedure in the Matrix
setup guide.
Refs #8174
* docs(matrix): improve crypto recovery docs per review
- Put easy path (fresh access token) first, manual purge second
- URL-encode user ID in Synapse admin API example
- Note that device deletion may invalidate the access token
- Add "stop Synapse first" caveat for direct SQLite approach
- Mention the fail-closed startup detection behavior
- Add back-reference from upgrade section to OTK warning
* refactor(matrix): cleanup from code review
- Extract _extract_server_ed25519() and _reverify_keys_after_upload()
to deduplicate the re-verification block (was copy-pasted in two
places, three copies of ed25519 key extraction total)
- Remove dead code: _pending_megolm, _retry_pending_decryptions,
_MAX_PENDING_EVENTS, _PENDING_EVENT_TTL — all orphaned after
removing _on_encrypted_event
- Remove tautological TestMediaCacheGate (tested its own predicate,
not production code)
- Remove dead TestMatrixMegolmEventHandling and
TestMatrixRetryPendingDecryptions (tested removed methods)
- Merge duplicate TestMatrixStopTyping into TestMatrixTypingIndicator
- Trim comment to just the "why"
Users (Teknium) report missing debug reports before the 1-hour auto-delete
fires. 6 hours gives enough window for async bug-report triage without
leaving sensitive log data on public paste services indefinitely.
Applies to both the CLI (hermes debug share) and gateway (/debug) paths.
Initialize next_channel_prompt before the pending_event check and use
getattr with None default, matching the existing pattern for
next_source/next_message/next_message_id. Prevents AttributeError
when pending_event is None (interrupt path).

config.yaml terminal.cwd is now the single source of truth for working
directory. MESSAGING_CWD and TERMINAL_CWD in .env are deprecated with a
migration warning.
Changes:
1. config.py: Remove MESSAGING_CWD from OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS (setup wizard
no longer prompts for it). Add warn_deprecated_cwd_env_vars() that
prints a migration hint when deprecated env vars are detected.
2. gateway/run.py: Replace all MESSAGING_CWD reads with TERMINAL_CWD
(which is bridged from config.yaml terminal.cwd). MESSAGING_CWD is
still accepted as a backward-compat fallback with deprecation warning.
Config bridge skips cwd placeholder values so they don't clobber
the resolved TERMINAL_CWD.
3. cli.py: Guard against lazy-import clobbering — when cli.py is
imported lazily during gateway runtime (via delegate_tool), don't
let load_cli_config() overwrite an already-resolved TERMINAL_CWD
with os.getcwd() of the service's working directory. (#10817)
4. hermes_cli/main.py: Add 'hermes memory reset' command with
--target all/memory/user and --yes flags. Profile-scoped via
HERMES_HOME.
Migration path for users with .env settings:

When execute_code times out, the result JSON had status="timeout" and an
error field, but the output field was empty. Many models treat empty
output as "nothing happened" and produce an empty/minimal response. The
gateway stream consumer then considers the response "already sent" (from
pre-tool streaming) and silently drops it — leaving the user staring at
silence.
Three changes:
1. Include the timeout message in the output field (both local and remote
paths) so the model always has visible content to relay to the user.
2. Add periodic activity callbacks to the local execution polling loop so
the gateway's inactivity monitor knows execute_code is alive during
long runs.
3. Fix stream_consumer._send_fallback_final to not silently drop content
when the continuation appears empty but the final text differs from
what was previously streamed (e.g. after a tool boundary reset).
When the LLM returns an empty completion, gateway/run.py replaced
final_response with the literal string '(No response generated)'.
This defeated cron/scheduler.py's empty-response skip guard, causing
the placeholder to be delivered to home channels.
Changes:
- gateway/run.py: return empty string instead of placeholder when
there is no error and no response content
- cron/scheduler.py: defensively strip the placeholder text in case
any upstream path still produces it
FixesNousResearch/hermes-agent#9270
The cancellation handler previously promoted any partial send
(already_sent=True) to final_response_sent=True unconditionally.
This meant if intermediate text (e.g. 'Let me search…') was streamed
and the consumer was cancelled before delivering the actual answer,
the gateway's suppression check would still prevent the fallback send.
Now final_response_sent is only set in the cancellation path when:
- The best-effort send of accumulated content actually succeeded, OR
- It was already confirmed before cancellation
Companion fix for PR #11000's run.py changes — closes the
cancellation-path loophole that would otherwise let partial streams
suppress final delivery during queued follow-ups.
All 10 call sites in gateway/run.py and gateway/platforms/api_server.py
are inside async functions where a loop is guaranteed to be running.
get_event_loop() is deprecated since Python 3.10 — it can silently
create a new loop when none is running, masking bugs.
get_running_loop() raises RuntimeError instead, which is safer.
Surfaced during review of PRs #10533 and #10647.

Each top-level Slack DM now gets its own Hermes session, matching the
per-thread behavior channels already have. Previously all top-level DM
messages shared one continuous session because thread_ts was None,
causing context to accumulate across unrelated conversations.
The behavior is controlled by platforms.slack.extra.dm_top_level_threads_as_sessions
in config.yaml (default: true). Set to false to restore legacy behavior.
Based on PR #10789 by helix4u. Changes from original:
- Default flipped to true (was opt-in, now opt-out)
- Removed env var fallback (config.yaml only per project policy)
- Tests updated to cover both default and opt-out paths
Bump connect retry attempts from 3 to 8 and cap exponential backoff at
15 seconds. Old budget: 3 attempts, 1+2+4=7s total — insufficient for
cold boot on slow networks or embedded devices. New budget: 8 attempts,
1+2+4+8+15+15+15=~60s total.
Inspired by PR #5770 by @Bartok9 (re-implemented against current main
since original was 913 commits stale with conflicts).
Three targeted fixes for the 'agent stuck on terminal command' report:
1. **Concurrent tool wait loop now checks interrupts** (run_agent.py)
The sequential path checked _interrupt_requested before each tool call,
but the concurrent path's wait loop just blocked with 30s timeouts.
Now polls every 5s and cancels pending futures on interrupt, giving
already-running tools 3s to notice the per-thread interrupt signal.
2. **Cancelled concurrent tools get proper interrupt messages** (run_agent.py)
When a concurrent tool is cancelled or didn't return a result due to
interrupt, the tool result message says 'skipped due to user interrupt'
instead of a generic error.
3. **Typing indicator fires before follow-up turn** (gateway/run.py)
After an interrupt is acknowledged and the pending message dequeued,
the gateway now sends a typing indicator before starting the recursive
_run_agent call. This gives the user immediate visual feedback that
the system is processing their new message (closing the perceived
'dead air' gap between the interrupt ack and the response).
Reported by @_SushantSays.
Fixes 12 CI test failures:
1. test_cli_new_session (4): _FakeAgent missing commit_memory_session
attribute added in the memory provider refactoring. Added MagicMock.
2. test_run_progress_topics (1): already_sent detection only checked
stream consumer flags, missing the response_previewed path from
interim_assistant_callback. Restructured guard to check both paths.
3. test_timezone (1): HERMES_TIMEZONE leaked into child processes via
_SAFE_ENV_PREFIXES matching HERMES_*. The code correctly converts
it to TZ but didn't remove the original. Added child_env.pop().
4. test_session_env (1): contextvars baseline captured from a different
context couldn't be restored after clear. Changed assertion to verify
the test's value was removed rather than comparing to a fragile baseline.
5. test_discord_slash_commands (5): already fixed on current main.
Gateway executor work now inherits the active session contextvars via
copy_context() so background process watchers retain the correct
platform/chat/user/session metadata for routing completion events back
to the originating chat.
Cherry-picked from #10647 by @helix4u with:
- Use asyncio.get_running_loop() instead of deprecated get_event_loop()
- Strip trailing whitespace
- Add *args forwarding test
- Add exception propagation test
In Telegram forum-enabled groups, the General topic does not include
message_thread_id in incoming messages (it is None). This caused:
1. Messages in General losing thread context — replies went to wrong place
2. Typing indicator failing because thread_id=1 was rejected by Telegram
Fix: synthesize thread_id="1" for forum groups when message_thread_id
is None, then handle it correctly per operation:
- send: omit message_thread_id (Telegram rejects thread_id=1 for sends)
- typing: pass thread_id=1, retry without it on "thread not found"
Also centralizes thread_id extraction into _metadata_thread_id() across
all send methods (send, send_voice, send_image, send_document, send_video,
send_animation, send_photo), replacing ~10 duplicate patterns.

The command preview and description were wrapped in Markdown v1 inline
code (backticks) without escaping, causing Telegram API parse errors
when the command itself contained backticks or asterisks.
Fixes: 'Can't parse entities: can't find end of the entity'
Telegram on iOS auto-converts double hyphens (--) to em dashes (—)
or en dashes (–) via autocorrect. This breaks /model flag parsing
since parse_model_flags() only recognizes literal '--provider' and
'--global'.
When the flag isn't parsed, the entire string (e.g. 'glm-5.1 —provider zai')
gets treated as the model name and fails with 'Model names cannot
contain spaces.'
Fix: normalize Unicode dashes (U+2012-U+2015) to '--' when they
appear before flag keywords (provider, global), before flag extraction.
The existing test suite in test_model_switch_provider_routing.py
already covers all four dash variants — this commit adds the code
that makes them pass.
Replace inline Path.home() / '.hermes' / 'profiles' detection in both CLI

Fixes /profile incorrectly reporting 'default' when HERMES_HOME points to
a custom-root profile path like /opt/data/profiles/coder.

Background review notifications ("💾 Skill created", "💾 Memory updated")
could race ahead of the main assistant reply in chat, making it look like
the agent stopped after creating a skill.
Gate bg-review notifications behind a threading.Event + pending queue.
Register a release callback on the adapter's _post_delivery_callbacks dict
so base.py's finally block fires it after the main response is delivered.
The queued-message path in _run_agent pops and calls the callback directly

Closes#10541
WecomCallbackAdapter declared a _seen_messages dict and
MESSAGE_DEDUP_TTL_SECONDS constant but never actually checked
them in _handle_callback(). WeCom retries callback deliveries
on timeout, and each retry with the same MsgId was treated as
a fresh message and queued for processing.
Fix: check _seen_messages before enqueuing. Uses the same TTL-
based pattern as MessageDeduplicator (fixed in #10306) — check
age before returning duplicate, prune on overflow.
Closes#10305
Extract resolve_channel_prompt() shared helper into
gateway/platforms/base.py. Refactor Discord to use it.
Wire channel_prompts into Telegram (groups + forum topics),
Slack (channels), and Mattermost (channels).
Config bridging now applies to all platforms (not just Discord).
Added channel_prompts defaults to telegram/slack/mattermost
config sections.
Docs added to all four platform pages with platform-specific
examples (topic inheritance for Telegram, channel IDs for Slack,
etc.).
- Remove double str() normalization in _resolve_channel_prompt since
config bridging already handles numeric YAML key conversion
- Remove dead prompts.get(str(key)) fallback that could never match
after keys were already normalized to strings
- Replace getattr(event, "channel_prompt", None) with direct attribute
access since channel_prompt is a declared dataclass field
- Update test to verify normalization responsibility lives in config bridging
_parse_session_key() blindly assigned parts[5] as thread_id for all
chat types. For group sessions with per-user isolation, parts[5] is
a user_id, not a thread_id. This could cause shutdown notifications
to route with incorrect thread metadata.
Only return thread_id for chat types where the 6th element is
unambiguous: dm and thread. For group/channel sessions, omit
thread_id since the suffix may be a user_id.
Based on the approach from PR #9938 by @Ruzzgar.
Commentary messages (interim assistant status updates like "Using browser
tool...") are sent via _send_commentary(), which was incorrectly setting
_already_sent = True on success. This caused the final response to be
suppressed when there were multiple tool calls, because the gateway checks
already_sent to decide whether to skip re-sending the response.
The fix: commentary messages are interim status updates, not the final
response, so _already_sent should not be set when they succeed. This
ensures the final response is always delivered regardless of how many
commentary messages were sent during the turn.
Fixes: #10454
After clear_session_vars() reset contextvars to their default (''),
get_session_env() treated the empty string as falsy and fell through
to os.environ — resurrecting stale HERMES_SESSION_* values from CLI
startup, cron, or previous sessions. This broke session isolation
in the gateway where concurrent messages could see each other's
stale environment values.
Fix: use a sentinel (_UNSET) as the contextvar default instead of ''.
get_session_env() now checks 'value is not _UNSET' instead of
truthiness. Three states are cleanly distinguished:
- _UNSET (never set): fall back to os.environ (CLI/cron compat)
- '' (explicitly cleared): return '' — no os.environ fallback
- 'telegram' (actively set): return the value
clear_session_vars() now uses var.set('') instead of var.reset(token)
to mark vars as explicitly cleared rather than reverting to _UNSET.
Closes#10304
When a model (e.g. mimo-v2-pro) streams intermediate text alongside tool
calls ("Let me search for that") but then returns empty after processing
tool results, the stream consumer already_sent flag is True from the
earlier text delivery. The gateway suppression check
(already_sent=True, failed=False → return None) would swallow the final
response, leaving the user staring at silence after the search.
Two changes:
1. gateway/run.py return path: skip already_sent suppression when the
final_response is "(empty)" or empty — the user needs to know the
agent finished even if streaming sent partial content earlier.
2. gateway/run.py response handler: convert the internal "(empty)"
sentinel to a user-friendly warning instead of delivering the raw
sentinel string.
Tests added for all empty/None/sentinel cases plus preserved existing
suppression behavior for normal non-empty responses.
Discord's _register_slash_commands() had a hardcoded list of ~27 commands
while COMMAND_REGISTRY defines 34+ gateway-available commands. Missing
commands (debug, branch, rollback, snapshot, profile, yolo, fast, reload,
commands) were invisible in Discord's / autocomplete — users couldn't
discover them.
Add a dynamic catch-all loop after the explicit registrations that
iterates COMMAND_REGISTRY, skips already-registered commands, and
auto-registers the rest using discord.app_commands.Command(). Commands
with args_hint get an optional string parameter; parameterless commands
get a simple callback.
This ensures any future commands added to COMMAND_REGISTRY automatically
appear on Discord without needing a manual entry in discord.py.
Telegram and Slack already derive dynamically from COMMAND_REGISTRY
via telegram_bot_commands() and slack_subcommand_map() — no changes
needed there.
- Pastes uploaded by /debug now auto-delete after 1 hour via a detached
background process that sends DELETE to paste.rs
- CLI: shows privacy notice listing what data will be uploaded
- Gateway: only uploads summary report (system info + log tails), NOT
full log files containing conversation content
- Added 'hermes debug delete <url>' for immediate manual deletion
- 16 new tests covering auto-delete scheduling, paste deletion, privacy
notices, and the delete subcommand
Addresses user privacy concern where /debug uploaded full conversation
logs to a public paste service with no warning or expiry.
Two gateway fixes:
1. MessageDeduplicator.is_duplicate() now checks TTL at query time (#10306)
Previously, is_duplicate() returned True for any previously seen ID
without checking its age — expired entries were only purged when cache
size exceeded max_size. On normal workloads that never overflow, message
IDs stayed deduplicated forever instead of expiring after the TTL.
Fix: check `now - timestamp < ttl` before returning True. Expired
entries are removed and treated as new messages.
2. Gateway --config flag now uses yaml.safe_load() (#10216)
The --config CLI flag in gateway/run.py main() used json.load() to
parse config files. YAML is the only documented config format and
every other config loader uses yaml.safe_load(). A YAML config file
passed via --config would crash with json.JSONDecodeError.
Closes#10306Closes#10216
_parse_session_key() now extracts the optional 6th part (thread_id) from
session keys, and _notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown uses _parsed.get()
instead of the removed 'parts' variable. Without this, shutdown notifications
silently failed (NameError caught by try/except) and forum topic routing
was lost.
- Populate watcher_* routing fields for watch-only processes (not just
notify_on_complete), so watch-pattern events carry direct metadata
instead of relying solely on session_key parsing fallback
- Extract _parse_session_key() helper to dedupe session key parsing
at two call sites in gateway/run.py
- Add negative test proving cross-thread leakage doesn't happen
- Add edge-case tests for _build_process_event_source returning None
(empty evt, invalid platform, short session_key)
- Add unit tests for _parse_session_key helper
Three fixes for the duplicate reply bug affecting all gateway platforms:
1. base.py: Suppress stale response when the session was interrupted by a
new message that hasn't been consumed yet. Checks both interrupt_event
and _pending_messages to avoid false positives. (#8221, #2483)
2. run.py (return path): Remove response_previewed guard from already_sent
check. Stream consumer's already_sent alone is authoritative — if
content was delivered via streaming, the duplicate send must be
suppressed regardless of the agent's response_previewed flag. (#8375)
3. run.py (queued-message path): Same fix — already_sent without
response_previewed now correctly marks the first response as already
streamed, preventing re-send before processing the queued message.
The response_previewed field is still produced by the agent (run_agent.py)
but is no longer required as a gate for duplicate suppression. The stream
consumer's already_sent flag is the delivery-level truth about what the
user actually saw.
Concepts from PR #8380 (konsisumer). Closes#8375, #8221, #2483.
Three independent fixes:
1. Reset activity timestamp on cached agent reuse (#9051)
When the gateway reuses a cached AIAgent for a new turn, the
_last_activity_ts from the previous turn (possibly hours ago)
carried over. The inactivity timeout handler immediately saw
the agent as idle for hours and killed it.
Fix: reset _last_activity_ts, _last_activity_desc, and
_api_call_count when retrieving an agent from the cache.
2. Detect uv-managed virtual environments (#8620 sub-issue 1)
The systemd unit generator fell back to sys.executable (uv's
standalone Python) when running under 'uv run', because
sys.prefix == sys.base_prefix (uv doesn't set up traditional
venv activation). The generated ExecStart pointed to a Python
binary without site-packages, crashing the service on startup.
Fix: check VIRTUAL_ENV env var before falling back to
sys.executable. uv sets VIRTUAL_ENV even when sys.prefix
doesn't reflect the venv.
3. Nudge model to continue after empty post-tool response (#9400)
Weaker models (GLM-5, mimo-v2-pro) sometimes return empty
responses after tool calls instead of continuing to the next
step. The agent silently abandoned the remaining work with
'(empty)' or used prior-turn fallback text.
Fix: when the model returns empty after tool calls AND there's
no prior-turn content to fall back on, inject a one-time user
nudge message telling the model to process the tool results and
continue. The flag resets after each successful tool round so it
can fire again on later rounds.
Test plan: 97 gateway + CLI tests pass, 9 venv detection tests pass
When a user sends a message while the agent is executing a task on the
gateway, the agent is now interrupted immediately — not silently queued.
Previously, messages were stored in _pending_messages with zero feedback
to the user, potentially leaving them waiting 1+ hours.
Root cause: Level 1 guard (base.py) intercepted all messages for active
sessions and returned with no response. Level 2 (gateway/run.py) which
calls agent.interrupt() was never reached.
Fix: Expand _handle_active_session_busy_message to handle the normal
(non-draining) case:
1. Call running_agent.interrupt(text) to abort in-flight tool calls
and exit the agent loop at the next check point
2. Store the message as pending so it becomes the next turn once the
interrupted run returns
3. Send a brief ack: 'Interrupting current task (10 min elapsed,
iteration 21/60, running: terminal). I'll respond shortly.'
4. Debounce acks to once per 30s to avoid spam on rapid messages
Reported by @Lonely__MH.
When compression fails after max attempts, the agent returns
{completed: False, partial: True} but was missing the 'failed' flag.
The gateway's agent_failed_early guard checked for 'failed' AND
'not final_response', but _run_agent_blocking always converts errors
to final_response — making the guard dead code. This caused the
oversized session to persist, creating an infinite fail loop where
every subsequent message hits the same compression failure.
Changes:
- run_agent.py: add 'failed: True' and 'compression_exhausted: True'
to all 5 compression-exhaustion return paths
- gateway/run.py (_run_agent_blocking): forward 'failed' and
'compression_exhausted' flags through to the caller
- gateway/run.py (_handle_message_with_agent): fix agent_failed_early
to check bool(failed) without the broken 'not final_response' clause;
auto-reset the session when compression is exhausted so the next
message starts fresh
- Update tests to match new guard logic and add
TestCompressionExhaustedFlag test class
Closes#9893
The /v1/responses endpoint generated a new UUID session_id for every
request, even when previous_response_id was provided. This caused each
turn of a multi-turn conversation to appear as a separate session on the
web dashboard, despite the conversation history being correctly chained.
Fix: store session_id alongside the response in the ResponseStore, and
reuse it when a subsequent request chains via previous_response_id.
Applies to both the non-streaming /v1/responses path and the streaming
SSE path. The /v1/runs endpoint also gains session continuity from
stored responses (explicit body.session_id still takes priority).
Adds test verifying session_id is preserved across chained requests.
* fix: hermes gateway restart waits for service to come back up (#8260)
Previously, systemd_restart() sent SIGUSR1 to the gateway, printed
'restart requested', and returned immediately. The gateway still
needed to drain active agents, exit with code 75, wait for systemd's
RestartSec=30, and start the new process. The user saw 'success' but
the gateway was actually down for 30-60 seconds.
Now the SIGUSR1 path blocks with progress feedback:
Phase 1 — wait for old process to die:
⏳ User service draining active work...
Polls os.kill(pid, 0) until ProcessLookupError (up to 90s)
Phase 2 — wait for new process to become active:
⏳ Waiting for hermes-gateway to restart...
Polls systemctl is-active + verifies new PID (up to 60s)
Success:
✓ User service restarted (PID 12345)
Timeout:
⚠ User service did not become active within 60s.
Check status: hermes gateway status
Check logs: journalctl --user -u hermes-gateway --since '2 min ago'
The reload-or-restart fallback path (line 1189) already blocks because
systemctl reload-or-restart is synchronous.
Test plan:
- Updated test to verify wait-for-restart behavior
- All 118 gateway CLI tests pass
* fix: add 402 billing error hint to gateway error handler (#5220)
The gateway's exception handler for agent errors had specific hints for
HTTP 401, 429, 529, 400, 500 — but not 402 (Payment Required / quota
exhausted). Users hitting billing limits from custom proxy providers
got a generic error with no guidance.
Added: 'Your API balance or quota is exhausted. Check your provider
dashboard.'
The underlying billing classification (error_classifier.py) already
correctly handles 402 as FailoverReason.billing with credential
rotation and fallback. The original issue (#5220) where 402 killed
the entire gateway was from an older version — on current main, 402
is excluded from the is_client_error abort path (line 9460) and goes
through the proper retry/fallback/fail flow. Combined with PR #9875
(auto-recover from unexpected SIGTERM), even edge cases where the
gateway dies are now survivable.
The streaming path emits output as content-part arrays for Open WebUI
compatibility, but the batch (non-streaming) Responses API path must
return output as a plain string per the OpenAI Responses API spec.
Reverts the _extract_output_items change from the cherry-picked commits
while preserving the streaming path's array format.
When a session gets stuck (hung terminal, runaway tool loop) and the
user restarts the gateway, the same session history loads and puts the
agent right back in the stuck state. The user is trapped in a loop:
restart → stuck → restart → stuck.
Fix: track restart-failure counts per session using a simple JSON file
(.restart_failure_counts). On each shutdown with active agents, the
counter increments for those sessions. On startup, if any session has
been active across 3+ consecutive restarts, it's auto-suspended —
giving the user a clean slate on their next message.
The counter resets to 0 when a session completes a turn successfully
(response delivered), so normal sessions that happen to be active
during planned restarts (/restart, hermes update) won't accumulate
false counts.
Implementation:
- _increment_restart_failure_counts(): called during stop() when
agents are active. Writes {session_key: count} to JSON file.
Sessions NOT active are dropped (loop broken).
- _suspend_stuck_loop_sessions(): called on startup. Reads the file,
suspends sessions at threshold (3), clears the file.
- _clear_restart_failure_count(): called after successful response
delivery. Removes the session from the counter file.
No SessionEntry schema changes. No database migration. Pure file-based
tracking that naturally cleans up.
Test plan:
- 9 new stuck-loop tests (increment, accumulate, threshold, clear,
suspend, file cleanup, edge cases)
- All 28 gateway lifecycle tests pass (restart drain + auto-continue
+ stuck loop)
When the gateway restarts mid-agent-work, the session transcript ends
on a tool result the agent never processed. Previously, the user had
to type 'continue' or use /retry (which replays from scratch, losing
all prior work).
Now, when the next user message arrives and the loaded history ends
with role='tool', a system note is prepended:
[System note: Your previous turn was interrupted before you could
process the last tool result(s). Please finish processing those
results and summarize what was accomplished, then address the
user's new message below.]
This is injected in _run_agent()'s run_sync closure, right before
calling agent.run_conversation(). The agent sees the full history
(including the pending tool results) and the system note, so it can
summarize what was accomplished and then handle the user's new input.
Design decisions:
- No new session flags or schema changes — purely detects trailing
tool messages in the loaded history
- Works for any restart scenario (clean, crash, SIGTERM, drain timeout)
as long as the session wasn't suspended (suspended = fresh start)
- The user's actual message is preserved after the note
- If the session WAS suspended (unclean shutdown), the old history is
abandoned and the user starts fresh — no false auto-continue
Also updates the shutdown notification message from 'Use /retry after
restart to continue' to 'Send any message after restart to resume
where it left off' — which is now accurate.
Test plan:
- 6 new auto-continue tests (trailing tool detection, no false
positives for assistant/user/empty history, multi-tool, message
preservation)
- All 13 restart drain tests pass (updated /retry assertion)
Instead of consuming one top-level slash command slot per skill (hitting the
100-command limit with ~26 built-ins + 74 skills), skills are now organized
under a single /skill group command with category-based subcommand groups:
/skill creative ascii-art [args]
/skill media gif-search [args]
/skill mlops axolotl [args]
Discord supports 25 subcommand groups × 25 subcommands = 625 max skills,
well beyond the previous 74-slot ceiling.
Categories are derived from the skill directory structure:
- skills/creative/ascii-art/ → category 'creative'
- skills/mlops/training/axolotl/ → category 'mlops' (top-level parent)
- skills/dogfood/ → uncategorized (direct subcommand)
Changes:
- hermes_cli/commands.py: add discord_skill_commands_by_category() with
category grouping, hub/disabled filtering, Discord limit enforcement
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: replace top-level skill registration with
_register_skill_group() using app_commands.Group hierarchy
- tests: 7 new tests covering group creation, category grouping,
uncategorized skills, hub exclusion, deep nesting, empty skills,
and handler dispatch
Inspired by Discord community suggestion from bottium.
When the gateway receives SIGTERM/SIGINT, the shutdown handler now
runs 'ps aux' and logs every hermes/gateway-related process (excluding
itself). This will show in agent.log as:
WARNING: Shutdown diagnostic — other hermes processes running:
hermes 1234 ... hermes update --gateway
hermes 5678 ... hermes gateway restart
This is the missing diagnostic for #5646 / #6666 — we can prove
the restarts are from systemctl but can't determine WHO issues the
systemctl command. Next time it happens, the agent.log will contain
the evidence (the process that sent the signal or called systemctl
should still be alive when the handler fires).
The dashboard's gateway status detection relied solely on local PID checks
(os.kill + /proc), which fails when the gateway runs in a separate container.
Changes:
- web_server.py: Add _probe_gateway_health() that queries the gateway's HTTP
/health/detailed endpoint when the local PID check fails. Activated by
setting the GATEWAY_HEALTH_URL env var (e.g. http://gateway:8642/health).
Falls back to standard PID check when the env var is not set.
- api_server.py: Add GET /health/detailed endpoint that returns full gateway
state (platforms, gateway_state, active_agents, pid, etc.) without auth.
The existing GET /health remains unchanged for backwards compatibility.
- StatusPage.tsx: Handle the case where gateway_pid is null but the gateway
is running remotely, displaying 'Running (remote)' instead of 'PID null'.
Environment variables:
- GATEWAY_HEALTH_URL: URL of the gateway health endpoint (e.g.
http://gateway-container:8642/health). Unset = local PID check only.
- GATEWAY_HEALTH_TIMEOUT: Probe timeout in seconds (default: 3).
Root cause: when the gateway received SIGTERM (from hermes update,
external kill, WSL2 runtime, etc.), it exited with status 0. systemd's
Restart=on-failure only restarts on non-zero exit, so the gateway
stayed dead permanently. Users had to manually restart.
Fix 1: Signal-initiated shutdown exits non-zero
When SIGTERM/SIGINT is received and no restart was requested (via
/restart, /update, or SIGUSR1), start_gateway() returns False which
causes sys.exit(1). systemd sees a failure exit and auto-restarts
after RestartSec=30.
This is safe because systemctl stop tracks its own stop-requested
state independently of exit code — Restart= never fires for a
deliberate stop, regardless of exit code.
Also logs 'Received SIGTERM/SIGINT — initiating shutdown' so the
cause of unexpected shutdowns is visible in agent.log.
Fix 2: PID file ownership guard
remove_pid_file() now checks that the PID file belongs to the current
process before removing it. During --replace handoffs, the old
process's atexit handler could fire AFTER the new process wrote its
PID file, deleting the new record. This left the gateway running but
invisible to get_running_pid(), causing 'Another gateway already
running' errors on next restart.
Test plan:
- All restart drain tests pass (13)
- All gateway service tests pass (84)
- All update gateway restart tests pass (34)
Feishu approval clicks need the resolved card to come back from the
synchronous callback path itself. Leaving approval resolution to the
generic asynchronous card-action flow made button feedback depend on
later loop work instead of the callback response the client is waiting
for.
Change-Id: I574997cbbcaa097fdba759b47367e28d1b56b040
Constraint: Feishu card-action callbacks must acknowledge quickly and reflect final approval state from the callback response path
Rejected: Keep approval handling on the generic async card-action route | leaves card state synchronization vulnerable to callback timing and follow-up update ordering
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep approval callback response construction separate from async queue unblocking unless Feishu callback semantics change
Tested: pytest tests/gateway/test_feishu.py tests/gateway/test_feishu_approval_buttons.py tests/gateway/test_approve_deny_commands.py tests/gateway/test_slack_approval_buttons.py tests/gateway/test_telegram_approval_buttons.py -q
Not-tested: Live Feishu workspace end-to-end callback rendering
Three fixes for gateway lifecycle stability:
1. Notify active sessions before shutdown (#new)
When the gateway receives SIGTERM or /restart, it now sends a
notification to every chat with an active agent BEFORE starting
the drain. Users see:
- Shutdown: 'Gateway shutting down — your task will be interrupted.'
- Restart: 'Gateway restarting — use /retry after restart to continue.'
Deduplicates per-chat so group sessions with multiple users get
one notification. Best-effort: send failures are logged and swallowed.
2. Skip .clean_shutdown marker when drain timed out
Previously, a graceful SIGTERM always wrote .clean_shutdown, even if
agents were force-interrupted when the drain timed out. This meant
the next startup skipped session suspension, leaving interrupted
sessions in a broken state (trailing tool response, no final message).
Now the marker is only written if the drain completed without timeout,
so interrupted sessions get properly suspended on next startup.
3. Post-restart health check for hermes update (#6631)
cmd_update() now verifies the gateway actually survived after
systemctl restart (sleep 3s + is-active check). If the service
crashed immediately, it retries once. If still dead, prints
actionable diagnostics (journalctl command, manual restart hint).
Also closes#8104 — already fixed on main (the /restart handler
correctly detects systemd via INVOCATION_ID and uses via_service=True).
Test plan:
- 6 new tests for shutdown notifications (dedup, restart vs shutdown
messaging, sentinel filtering, send failure resilience)
- Existing restart drain + update tests pass (47 total)
When BlueBubbles posts webhook events to the adapter, it uses the exact
URL registered via /api/v1/webhook — and BB's registration API does not
support custom headers. The adapter currently registers the bare URL
(no credentials), but then requires password auth on inbound POSTs,
rejecting every webhook with HTTP 401.
This is masked on fresh BB installs by a race condition: the webhook
might register once with a prior (possibly patched) URL and keep working
until the first restart. On v0.9.0, _unregister_webhook runs on clean
shutdown, so the next startup re-registers with the bare URL and the
401s begin. Users see the bot go silent with no obvious cause.
Root cause: there's no way to pass auth credentials from BB to the
webhook handler except via the URL itself. BB accepts query params and
preserves them on outbound POSTs.
## Fix
Introduce `_webhook_register_url` — the URL handed to BB's registration
API, with the configured password appended as a `?password=<value>`
query param. The existing webhook auth handler already accepts this
form (it reads `request.query.get("password")`), so no change to the
receive side is needed.
The bare `_webhook_url` is still used for logging and for binding the
local listener, so credentials don't leak into log output. Only the
registration/find/unregister paths use the password-bearing form.
## Notes
- Password is URL-encoded via urllib.parse.quote, handling special
characters (&, *, @, etc.) that would otherwise break parsing.
- Storing the password in BB's webhook table is not a new disclosure:
anyone with access to that table already has the BB admin password
(same credential used for every other API call).
- If `self.password` is empty (no auth configured), the register URL
is the bare URL — preserves current behavior for unauthenticated
local-only setups.

BlueBubbles v1.9+ webhook payloads for new-message events do not always
include a top-level chatGuid field on the message data object. Instead,
the chat GUID is nested under data.chats[0].guid.
The adapter currently checks five top-level fallback locations (record and
payload, snake_case and camelCase, plus payload.guid) but never looks
inside the chats array. When none of those top-level fields contain the
GUID, the adapter falls through to using the sender's phone/email as the
session chat ID.
This causes two observable bugs when a user is a participant in both a DM
and a group chat with the bot:
1. DM and group sessions merge. Every message from that user ends up with
the same session_chat_id (their own address), so the bot cannot
distinguish which thread the message came from.
2. Outbound routing becomes ambiguous. _resolve_chat_guid() iterates all
chats and returns the first one where the address appears as a
participant; group chats typically sort ahead of DMs by activity, so
replies and cron messages intended for the DM can land in a group.
This was observed in production: a user's morning brief cron delivered to
a group chat with his spouse instead of his DM thread.
The fix adds a single fallback that extracts chat_guid from
record["chats"][0]["guid"] when the top-level fields are empty. The chats
array is included in every new-message webhook payload in BB v1.9.9
(verified against a live server). It is backwards compatible: if a future
BB version starts including chatGuid at the top level, that still wins.

The BlueBubbles adapter registers its webhook with three events:
["new-message", "updated-message", "message"]. The third, "message",
is not a valid event type in the BlueBubbles server API — BB rejects
the registration payload with HTTP 400 Bad Request.
Currently this is masked by the "crash resilience" check in
_register_webhook, which reuses any existing registration matching the
webhook URL and short-circuits before reaching the API call. So an
already-registered webhook from a prior run keeps working. But any fresh
install, or any restart after _unregister_webhook has run during a clean
shutdown, fails to re-register and silently stops receiving messages.
Observed in production: after a gateway restart in v0.9.0 (which auto-
unregisters on shutdown), the next startup hit this 400 and the bot went
silent until the invalid event was removed.
BlueBubbles documents "new-message" and "updated-message" as the message
event types (see https://docs.bluebubbles.app/). There is no "message"
event, and no harm in dropping it — the two remaining events cover all
inbound message webhooks.

When GATEWAY_PROXY_URL (or gateway.proxy_url in config.yaml) is set,
the gateway becomes a thin relay: it handles platform I/O (encryption,
threading, media) and delegates all agent work to a remote Hermes API
server via POST /v1/chat/completions with SSE streaming.
This enables the primary use case of running a Matrix E2EE gateway in
Docker on Linux while the actual agent runs on the host (e.g. macOS)
with full access to local files, memory, skills, and a unified session
store. Works for any platform adapter, not just Matrix.
Configuration:
- GATEWAY_PROXY_URL env var (Docker-friendly)
- gateway.proxy_url in config.yaml
- GATEWAY_PROXY_KEY env var for API auth (matches API_SERVER_KEY)
- X-Hermes-Session-Id header for session continuity
Architecture:
- _get_proxy_url() checks env var first, then config.yaml
- _run_agent_via_proxy() handles HTTP forwarding with SSE streaming
- _run_agent() delegates to proxy path when URL is configured
- Platform streaming (GatewayStreamConsumer) works through proxy
- Returns compatible result dict for session store recording
Files changed:
- gateway/run.py: proxy mode implementation (~250 lines)
- hermes_cli/config.py: GATEWAY_PROXY_URL + GATEWAY_PROXY_KEY env vars
- tests/gateway/test_proxy_mode.py: 17 tests covering config
resolution, dispatch, HTTP forwarding, error handling, message
filtering, and result shape validation
Closes discussion from Cars29 re: Matrix gateway mixed-mode issue.
The /new and /reset commands were not calling shutdown_memory_provider()
on the cached agent before eviction. This caused OpenViking (and any
memory provider that relies on session-end shutdown) to skip commit,
leaving memories un-indexed until idle timeout or gateway shutdown.
Add the missing shutdown_memory_provider() call in _handle_reset_command(),
matching the behavior already present in the session expiry watcher.
Fixes#7759
During rapid tool-calling, the model often emits 1-2 tokens before
switching to tool calls. The stream consumer would create a new message
with 'X ▉' (short text + cursor), and if the follow-up edit to strip
the cursor was rate-limited by the platform, the cursor remained as
a permanent standalone message — reported on Telegram as 'white box'
artifacts.
Add a minimum-content guard in _send_or_edit: when creating a new
standalone message (no existing message_id), require at least 4
visible characters alongside the cursor before sending. Shorter text
accumulates into the next streaming segment instead.
This prevents cursor-only 'tofu' messages across all platforms without
affecting normal streaming (edits to existing messages, final sends
without cursor, and messages with substantial text are all unaffected).
Reported by @michalkomar on X.

- Fall back to inline api_key in named custom providers when key_env
is absent (runtime_provider.py)
Test fixes:
- test_memory_user_id: use builtin+external provider pair, fix honcho
peer_name override test to match production behavior
- test_display_config: remove TestHelpers for non-existent functions
- test_auxiliary_client: fix OAuth tokens to match _is_oauth_token
patterns, replace get_vision_auxiliary_client with resolve_vision_provider_client

vars that leak from CI secrets
- test_opencode_go_in_model_list: accept both 'built-in' and 'hermes'
source (models.dev API unavailable in CI)
- test_email: verify email Platform enum membership instead of source
inspection (build_channel_directory now uses dynamic enum loop)
- test_feishu: add bot_added/bot_deleted handler mocks to _Builder
- test_ws_auth_retry: add AsyncMock for sync_store.get_next_batch,
add _pending_megolm and _joined_rooms to Matrix adapter mocks

this in CI, changing the restart call signature)
- test_session_hygiene: add user_id to SessionSource
- test_session_env: use relative baseline for contextvar clear check
(pytest-xdist workers share context)
Improvements from our earlier #8269 salvage work applied to #7616:
- Platform token lock: acquire_scoped_lock/release_scoped_lock prevents
two profiles from double-connecting the same QQ bot simultaneously
- Send retry with exponential backoff (3 attempts, 1s/2s/4s) with
permanent vs transient error classification (matches Telegram pattern)
- Proper long-message splitting via truncate_message() instead of
hard-truncating at MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH (preserves code blocks, adds 1/N)
- REST-based one-shot send in send_message_tool — uses QQ Bot REST API
directly with httpx instead of creating a full WebSocket adapter per
message (fixes the connect→send race condition)
- Use shared strip_markdown() from helpers.py instead of 15 lines of
inline regex with import-inside-method (DRY, same as BlueBubbles/SMS)
- format_message() now wired into send() pipeline
- Add Platform.QQBOT to _UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS (enables /update command)
- Add 'qqbot' to webhook cross-platform delivery routing
- Add 'qqbot' to hermes dump platform detection
- Fix test_name_property casing: 'QQBot' not 'QQBOT'
- Add _parse_qq_timestamp() for ISO 8601 + integer ms compatibility
(QQ API changed timestamp format — from PR #2411 finding)
- Wire timestamp parsing into all 4 message handlers
- Rename platform from 'qq' to 'qqbot' across all integration points
(Platform enum, toolset, config keys, import paths, file rename qq.py → qqbot.py)
- Add PLATFORM_HINTS for QQBot in prompt_builder (QQ supports markdown)
- Set SUPPORTS_MESSAGE_EDITING = False to skip streaming on QQ
(prevents duplicate messages from non-editable partial + final sends)
- Add _send_qqbot() standalone send function for cron/send_message tool
- Add interactive _setup_qq() wizard in hermes_cli/setup.py
- Restore missing _setup_signal/email/sms/dingtalk/feishu/wecom/wecom_callback
functions that were lost during the original merge
Models like MiniMax emit inline <think>...</think> reasoning blocks in
their content field. The CLI already suppresses these via a state machine
in _stream_delta, but the gateway's GatewayStreamConsumer had no
equivalent filtering — raw think blocks were streamed directly to
Discord/Telegram/Slack.
The fix adds a _filter_and_accumulate() method that mirrors the CLI's
approach: a state machine tracks whether we're inside a reasoning block
and silently discards the content. Includes the same block-boundary
check (tag must appear at line start or after whitespace-only prefix)
to avoid false positives when models mention <think> in prose.
Handles all tag variants: <think>, <thinking>, <THINKING>, <thought>,
<reasoning>, <REASONING_SCRATCHPAD>.
Also handles edge cases:
- Tags split across streaming deltas (partial tag buffering)
- Unclosed blocks (content suppressed until stream ends)
- Multiple consecutive blocks
- _flush_think_buffer on stream end for held-back partial tags
Adds 22 unit tests + 1 integration test covering all scenarios.
When the 5-second stream_task timeout in gateway/run.py expires (due to
slow Telegram API calls from rate limiting after several messages), the
stream consumer is cancelled via asyncio.CancelledError. The
CancelledError handler did a best-effort final edit but never set
final_response_sent, so the gateway fell through to the normal send path
and delivered the full response again as a reply — causing a duplicate.
The fix: in the CancelledError handler, set final_response_sent = True
when already_sent is True (i.e., the stream consumer had already
delivered content to the user). This tells the gateway's already_sent
check that the response was delivered, preventing the duplicate send.
Adds two tests verifying the cancellation behavior:
- Cancelled with already_sent=True → final_response_sent=True (no dup)
- Cancelled with already_sent=False → final_response_sent=False (normal
send path proceeds)
Reported by community user hume on Discord.
/stop was calling suspend_session() which marked the session for auto-reset
on the next message. This meant users lost their conversation history every
time they stopped a running agent — especially painful for untitled sessions
that can't be resumed by name.
Now /stop just interrupts the agent and cleans the session lock. The session
stays intact so users can continue the conversation.
The suspend behavior was introduced in #7536 to break stuck session resume
loops on gateway restart. That case is already handled by
suspend_recently_active() which runs at gateway startup, so removing it from
/stop doesn't regress the original fix.
The v11→v12 migration converts custom_providers (list) into providers
(dict), then deletes the list. But all runtime resolvers read from
custom_providers — after migration, named custom endpoints silently stop
resolving and fallback chains fail with AuthError.
Add get_compatible_custom_providers() that reads from both config schemas
(legacy custom_providers list + v12+ providers dict), normalizes entries,
deduplicates, and returns a unified list. Update ALL consumers:
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py: _get_named_custom_provider() + key_env
- hermes_cli/auth_commands.py: credential pool provider names
- hermes_cli/main.py: model picker + _model_flow_named_custom()
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: key_env + custom_entry model fallback
- agent/credential_pool.py: _iter_custom_providers()
- cli.py + gateway/run.py: /model switch custom_providers passthrough
- run_agent.py + gateway/run.py: per-model context_length lookup
Also: use config.pop() instead of del for safer migration, fix stale
_config_version assertions in tests, add pool mock to codex test.

Closes#8776, salvaged from PR #8814
Updated the acquire_scoped_lock function to treat empty or corrupt lock files as stale. This change ensures that if a lock file exists but is invalid, it will be removed to prevent issues with stale locks. Added tests to verify recovery from both empty and corrupt lock files.
- Store source metadata on /voice channel join so voice input shares the
same session as the linked text channel conversation
- Treat voice-linked text channels as free-response (skip @mention and

- Scope the voice-linked exemption to the exact bound channel, not
sibling threads
- Guard signal handler registration in start_gateway() for non-main
threads (prevents RuntimeError when gateway runs in a daemon thread)

When HTTPS_PROXY / HTTP_PROXY / ALL_PROXY env vars are set (or macOS system proxy
is detected), pass the proxy URL explicitly via HTTPXRequest(proxy=proxy_url) instead
of relying on httpx's trust_env mechanism, which is unreliable for HTTP CONNECT
proxies (e.g. Clash / ClashMac in fake-ip mode).
Uses the shared resolve_proxy_url() from base.py (handles env vars + macOS system
proxy detection) instead of duplicating env var reading inline. Consolidates the
proxy_configured boolean into a single proxy_url = resolve_proxy_url() call that
serves as both the gate for skipping fallback-IP transport and the value passed
to HTTPXRequest.

Salvaged from PR #8931 by MaybeRichard.
The detached bash subprocess spawned by /restart gets killed by
systemd's KillMode=mixed cgroup cleanup, leaving the gateway dead.
Under systemd (detected via INVOCATION_ID env var), /restart now uses
via_service=True which exits with code 75 — RestartForceExitStatus=75
in the unit file makes systemd auto-restart the service. The detached
subprocess approach is preserved as fallback for non-systemd
environments (Docker, tmux, foreground mode).
When a user sends /restart, the gateway now persists their routing info
(platform, chat_id, thread_id) to .restart_notify.json. After the new
gateway process starts and adapters connect, it reads the file, sends a
'Gateway restarted successfully' message to that specific chat, and
cleans up the file.
This follows the same pattern as _send_update_notification (used by
/update). Thread IDs are preserved so the notification lands in the
correct Telegram topic or Discord thread.
Previously, after /restart the user had no feedback that the gateway was
back — they had to send a message to find out. Now they get a proactive
notification and know their session continues.
When tool_preview_length is 0 (default for platforms without a tier
default, like Session), verbose mode was truncating args JSON to 200
characters. Since the user explicitly opted into verbose mode, they
expect full tool call detail — the 200-char cap defeated the purpose.
Now: tool_preview_length=0 means no truncation in verbose mode.
Positive values still cap as before. Platform message-length limits
handle overflow naturally.
Three changes that address the poor WhatsApp experience reported by users:
1. Reclassify WhatsApp from TIER_LOW to TIER_MEDIUM in display_config.py
— enables streaming and tool progress via the existing Baileys /edit
bridge endpoint. Users now see progressive responses instead of
minutes of silence followed by a wall of text.
2. Lower MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH from 65536 to 4096 and add proper chunking
— send() now calls format_message() and truncate_message() before
sending, then loops through chunks with a small delay between them.
The base class truncate_message() already handles code block boundary
detection (closes/reopens fences at chunk boundaries). reply_to is
only set on the first chunk.
3. Override format_message() with WhatsApp-specific markdown conversion
— converts **bold** to *bold*, ~~strike~~ to ~strike~, headers to
bold text, and [links](url) to text (url). Code blocks and inline
code are protected from conversion via placeholder substitution.
Together these fix the two user complaints:
- 'sends the whole code all the time' → now chunked at 4K with proper
formatting
- 'terminal gets interrupted and gets cooked' → streaming + tool progress
give visual feedback so users don't accidentally interrupt with
follow-up messages
Port from nearai/ironclaw#2304: Telegram's 4096 character limit is
measured in UTF-16 code units, not Unicode codepoints. Characters
outside the Basic Multilingual Plane (emoji like 😀, CJK Extension B,
musical symbols) are surrogate pairs: 1 Python char but 2 UTF-16 units.
Previously, truncate_message() used Python's len() which counts
codepoints. This could produce chunks exceeding Telegram's actual limit
when messages contain many astral-plane characters.
Changes:
- Add utf16_len() helper and _prefix_within_utf16_limit() for
UTF-16-aware string measurement and truncation
- Add _custom_unit_to_cp() binary-search helper that maps a custom-unit
budget to the largest safe codepoint slice position
- Update truncate_message() to accept optional len_fn parameter
- Telegram adapter now passes len_fn=utf16_len when splitting messages
- Fix fallback truncation in Telegram error handler to use
_prefix_within_utf16_limit instead of codepoint slicing
- Update send_message_tool.py to use utf16_len for Telegram platform
- Add comprehensive tests: utf16_len, _prefix_within_utf16_limit,
truncate_message with len_fn (emoji splitting, content preservation,
code block handling)
- Update mock lambdas in reply_mode tests to accept **kw for len_fn
Adds /debug as a slash command available in CLI, Telegram, Discord,
Slack, and all other gateway platforms. Uploads debug report + full
logs to paste services and returns shareable URLs.
- commands.py: CommandDef in Info category (no cli_only/gateway_only)

Some OpenAI-compatible clients (Open WebUI, LobeChat, etc.) send
message content as an array of typed parts instead of a plain string:
[{"type": "text", "text": "hello"}]
The agent pipeline expects strings, so these array payloads caused
silent failures or empty messages.
Add _normalize_chat_content() with defensive limits (recursion depth,
list size, output length) and apply it to both the Chat Completions
and Responses API endpoints. The Responses path had inline
normalization that only handled input_text/output_text — the shared
function also handles the standard 'text' type.

aiohttp.ClientSession defaults to trust_env=False, ignoring HTTP_PROXY/

WhatsApp sessions are excluded as they only connect to localhost.
httpx-based adapters (dingtalk, signal, wecom_callback) are unaffected
as httpx defaults to trust_env=True.

Four fixes for the Weixin/WeChat adapter, synthesized from the best
aspects of community PRs #8407, #8521, #8360, #7695, #8308, #8525,
#7531, #8144, #8251.
1. Streaming cursor (▉) stuck permanently — WeChat doesn't support
message editing, so the cursor appended during streaming can never
be removed. Add SUPPORTS_MESSAGE_EDITING = False to WeixinAdapter
and check it in gateway/run.py to use an empty cursor for non-edit
platforms. (Fixes#8307, #8326)
2. Media upload failures — two bugs in _send_file():
a) upload_full_url path used PUT (404 on WeChat CDN); now uses POST.
b) aes_key was base64(raw_bytes) but the iLink API expects
base64(hex_string); images showed as grey boxes. (Fixes#8352, #7529)
Also: unified both upload paths into _upload_ciphertext(), preferring
upload_full_url. Added send_video/send_voice methods and voice_item
media builder for audio/.silk files. Added video_md5 field.
3. Markdown links stripped — WeChat can't render [text](url), so
format_message() now converts them to 'text (url)' plaintext.
Code blocks are preserved. (Fixes#7617)
4. Blank message prevention — three guards:
a) _split_text_for_weixin_delivery('') returns [] not ['']
b) send() filters empty/whitespace chunks before _send_text_chunk
c) _send_message() raises ValueError for empty text as safety net

Add agent.gateway_notify_interval config option (default 600s).
Set to 0 to disable periodic 'still working' notifications.
Bridged to HERMES_AGENT_NOTIFY_INTERVAL env var (same pattern as
gateway_timeout and gateway_timeout_warning).
The inactivity warning (gateway_timeout_warning) was already
configurable; this makes the wall-clock ping configurable too.
The _watch_update_progress() poll loop never deleted .update_prompt.json
after forwarding the prompt to the user, causing the same prompt to be
re-sent every poll cycle (2s). Two fixes:
1. Delete .update_prompt.json after forwarding — the update process only
polls for .update_response, it doesn't need the prompt file to persist.
2. Guard re-sends with _update_prompt_pending check — belt-and-suspenders
to prevent duplicates even under race conditions.
Add regression test asserting the prompt is sent exactly once.
When a user configures a provider (e.g. `hermes auth add openai-codex`)
but never selects a model via `hermes model`, the gateway and CLI would
pass an empty model string to the API, causing:
'Codex Responses request model must be a non-empty string'
Now both gateway (_resolve_session_agent_runtime) and CLI
(_ensure_runtime_credentials) detect an empty model and fill it from
the provider's first catalog entry in _PROVIDER_MODELS. This covers
all providers that have a static model list (openai-codex, anthropic,
gemini, copilot, etc.).
The fix is conservative: it only triggers when model is truly empty
and a known provider was resolved. Explicit model choices are never
overridden.
When the gateway shuts down gracefully (hermes update, gateway restart,
/restart), it now writes a .clean_shutdown marker file. On the next
startup, if this marker exists, suspend_recently_active() is skipped
and the marker is cleaned up.
Previously, suspend_recently_active() fired on EVERY startup —
including planned restarts from hermes update or hermes gateway restart.
This caused users to lose their conversation history unexpectedly: the
session would be marked as suspended, and the next message would
trigger an auto-reset with a notification the user never asked for.
The original purpose of suspend_recently_active() is crash recovery —
preventing stuck sessions that were mid-processing when the gateway
died unexpectedly. Graceful shutdowns already drain active agents via
_drain_active_agents(), so there is no stuck-session risk. After a
crash (no marker written), suspension still fires as before.
Fixes the scenario where a user asks the agent to run hermes update,
the gateway restarts, and the user's next message gets an unwanted
'Session automatically reset' notification with their history cleared.
Follow-up for cherry-picked PR #8272:
- Add MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY to module docstring header in matrix.py
- Register in OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS (config.py) with password=True, advanced=True
- Add to _NON_SETUP_ENV_VARS set
- Document cross-signing verification in matrix.md E2EE section
- Update migration guide with recovery key step (step 3)
- Add to environment-variables.md reference
After the PgCryptoStore migration in v0.8.0, the verify_with_recovery_key
call that previously ran after share_keys() was dropped. On any rotation
that uploads fresh device keys (fresh crypto.db, server had stale keys
from a prior install, etc.), the new device keys carry no valid self-
signing signature because the bot has no access to the self-signing
private key.
Peers like Element then refuse to share Megolm sessions with the
rotated device, so the bot silently stops decrypting incoming messages.
This restores the recovery-key bootstrap: on startup, if
MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY is set, import the cross-signing private keys from
SSSS and sign_own_device(), producing a valid signature server-side.
Idempotent and gated on MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY — no behavior change for
users who don't configure a recovery key.
Verified end-to-end by deleting crypto.db and restarting: the bot
rotates device identity keys, re-uploads, self-signs via recovery key,
and decrypts+replies to fresh messages from a paired Element client.
After /model switches the model (both picker and text paths), the cached
agent's config signature becomes stale — the agent was updated in-place
via switch_model() but the cache tuple's signature was never refreshed.
The next turn *should* detect the signature mismatch and create a fresh
agent, but this relies on the new model's signature differing from the
old one in _agent_config_signature().
Evicting the cached agent explicitly after storing the session override
is more defensive — the next turn is guaranteed to create a fresh agent
from the override without depending on signature mismatch detection.
Also adds debug logging at three key decision points so we can trace
exactly what happens when /model + /retry interact:
- _resolve_session_agent_runtime: which override path is taken (fast
with api_key vs fallback), or why no override was found
- _run_agent.run_sync: final resolved model/provider before agent
creation
Reported: /model switch to xiaomi/mimo-v2-pro followed by /retry still
used the old model (glm-5.1).
The monitor_for_interrupt() and backup interrupt checks were calling
get_pending_message() which pops the message from the adapter's queue.
This created a race condition: if the agent finished naturally before
checking _interrupt_requested, the pending message was permanently lost.
Timeline of the race:
1. Agent near completion, user sends message
2. Level 1 guard stores message in adapter._pending_messages, sets event
3. monitor_for_interrupt() detects event, POPS message, calls agent.interrupt()
4. Agent's run_conversation() was already returning (interrupted=False)
5. Post-run dequeue finds nothing (monitor already consumed it)
6. result.get('interrupted') is False so interrupt_message fallback doesn't fire
7. User message permanently lost — agent finishes without processing it
Fix: change all three interrupt detection sites (primary monitor + two
backup checks) from get_pending_message() (pop) to
_pending_messages.get() (peek). The message stays in the adapter's queue
until _dequeue_pending_event() consumes it in the post-run handler,
which runs regardless of whether the agent was interrupted or finished
naturally.
Reported by @_SushantSays — intermittent message loss during long
terminal command execution, persisting after the previous fix (73f970fa)
which addressed monitor task death but not this consumption race.
Add content-aware splitting to compact mode: short chat-like exchanges
(2-6 short lines without headings/lists/quotes) get separate message
bubbles for a natural chat feel, while structured content (tables,
headings with body, numbered lists) stays in a single message.
Cherry-picked from PR #7587 by bravohenry, adapted to the compact/legacy
split_per_line architecture from #7903.
When the agent calls process(action='wait') or process(action='poll')
and gets the exited status, the completion_queue notification is
redundant — the agent already has the output from the tool return.
Previously, the drain loops in CLI and gateway would still inject
the [SYSTEM: Background process completed] message, causing the
agent to receive the same information twice.
Fix: track session IDs in _completion_consumed set when wait/poll/log
returns an exited process. Drain loops in cli.py and gateway watcher
skip completion events for consumed sessions. Watch pattern events
are never suppressed (they have independent semantics).
Adds 4 tests covering wait/poll/log marking and running-process
negative case.
