Rebuilds the iron-proxy egress feature cleanly onto current main. The
original feat/iron-proxy branch had diverged from main with an
unmergeable history (no usable merge-base after main history motion),
so the feature's content diff was re-applied onto a fresh main cut and
the three config/docs conflicts (commands.py status/egress, config.py
proxy vs computer_use, slash-commands.md) resolved keeping main's
content plus the egress additions.
Optional, off-by-default TLS-intercepting egress proxy for remote
terminal sandboxes. Sandboxes hold opaque proxy tokens; iron-proxy
swaps them for real provider API keys at the network boundary.

Replies on WhatsApp Cloud arrived at the agent with reply_to_id set but
reply_to_text=None, so run.py never injected the "[Replying to: ...]"
disambiguation prefix (it gates on reply_to_text). Meta's webhook context
object carries only the quoted message's id, never its text.
Index (chat_id, wamid) -> text in rich_sent_store on every inbound message
and every outbound text send -- the same store that solved the identical
Telegram rich-send problem -- then look up the quoted text in
_build_message_event_from_cloud and populate reply_to_text plus
reply_to_is_own_message, derived from context.from versus the business
number.
Tasks 2.1 + 2.2 + 2.3 of the safe-shutdown plan — the reversible
quiesce-without-restart machinery NAS drives during a lifecycle action (D4a).
These ship together because the endpoint, the control channel, and the gateway
state machine are one coherent slice.
2.2 — control channel (gateway/drain_control.py, new):
The dashboard has no HTTP path into a running gateway (guardrails: "there is NO
external control channel into a running gateway"); restart/drain is driven only
by markers the gateway reacts to. So begin/cancel-drain writes/removes a
presence-based marker .drain_request.json (HERMES_HOME-scoped, atomic write,
never-raises read; a corrupt marker reads as present-contentless → fail-safe
toward quiescing). This is Q-B option A.
2.2 — gateway state machine (gateway/run.py):
- _external_drain_active flag, DISTINCT from the shutdown _draining flag: this
one does NOT exit the process and is fully reversible.
- _enter_external_drain / _exit_external_drain: idempotent transitions that
flip gateway_state→draining / →running via _update_runtime_status (preserving
the live active_agents count). exit refuses to revert to running during a
real shutdown or after the loop stops (shutdown wins).
- _drain_control_watcher: 1s background task (modelled on _handoff_watcher)
reconciling accept-state with the marker; honours a marker that survived a
restart on its first tick. Registered alongside the other watchers in start.
- New-turn accept gate in _handle_message, placed BEFORE the session-slot
claim: when draining, refuse to START a new turn (so active_agents can only
fall → no TOCTOU race), while in-flight turns finish untouched. Internal/
system events (restart-recovery replays, bg-process completions) bypass it.
2.1 — endpoint (hermes_cli/web_server.py):
POST /api/gateway/drain {action: drain|cancel}. Authenticated by the Task-2.0a
token seam (the drain plugin registered this exact path as a token route);
attributes the request to the verified token principal. Begin writes the
marker, cancel removes it — the gateway process owns the actual transition.
Force-override (D6) is NOT here; it maps onto the existing immediate
/api/gateway/restart force path.
Tests (mocked — necessary-not-sufficient; the HARD live gate Q-B is next):
- tests/gateway/test_external_drain_control.py — marker contract (write/clear/
read/corrupt/atomic), state machine (enter/exit/idempotency/shutdown-wins/
loop-stopped), watcher reconcile-enter-then-exit, new-turn refusal, and
in-flight-not-interrupted. 15 tests.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py — /api/gateway/drain begin/default-begin/
cancel/cancel-idempotent/bad-action-400. 6 tests.
- dashboard.drain_auth config section already added in 2.0b commit.
All touched suites green: 301 (gateway+auth) + 9 (web_server endpoints) passed.
Intentionally deferred:
- HARD live-validation gate (Q-B): real isolated `hermes gateway run`, drive a
real begin-drain marker, prove the 5-point checklist a–e.
- Spec-doc status flip + Phase-2 PR.
Build status: external-drain, restart-drain, status, dashboard-auth, drain-plugin,
token-auth, and web_server-endpoint suites green.
Cut over the agent half of Shape A (D-Q1.5a/b.1/c) to front a SET of platforms on
one relay WS:
- relay_platform_identities() parses GATEWAY_RELAY_PLATFORMS (list) +
GATEWAY_RELAY_BOT_IDS (JSON keyed map {platform:{botId,username?}}). Cut over
from the scalar GATEWAY_RELAY_PLATFORM/_BOT_ID (no fallback, D-Q1.5c).
- self_provision_relay() loops one /relay/provision per platform under one
gatewayId+secret, partial-failure-tolerant.
- WebSocketRelayTransport takes the identity SET, sends one hello per identity
(connector accumulates the advertised set), and stamps the per-frame
OutboundFrame.platform + its matching advertised botId on outbound.
- RelayAdapter remembers each chat's underlying source.platform (mirroring the
existing guild/dm scope capture) and tags the reply's egress platform.
- send_relay_policy() declares one relevance policy per fronted platform (the
connector keys policy by (tenant,platform,instanceId)).
Single-platform deploys are byte-identical on the wire (1-element list, no per-frame
tag -> connector session-default fallback). typecheck/ruff clean; relay unit 221 pass
(+10 new); all 15 cross-repo E2E drivers green vs connector origin/main.
The gateway reconnect watcher (gateway/run.py) recovers a platform after a
fatal adapter error by building a fresh adapter and calling
connect(is_reconnect=True). Every BasePlatformAdapter implements
connect(*, is_reconnect: bool = False) for this — except RelayAdapter, whose
connect() was bare. So the watcher's recovery path raised:
TypeError: connect() got an unexpected keyword argument 'is_reconnect'
Observed live on a hosted staging agent: after a fatal relay adapter error the
watcher could never re-establish relay, so the shared-bot inbound never reached
the gateway and Discord DMs stopped (dashboard surfaced the TypeError).
Relay deliberately ignores the flag: the #46621 server-side-queue-preservation
concern doesn't apply, because relay's outage buffer is the connector's durable
buffer (replayed on the transport's re-handshake), not a gateway-side queue the
adapter owns. Routine WS drops are already handled by the transport's own
reconnect supervisor (WebSocketRelayTransport, reconnect=True); the watcher path
is fatal-error recovery, and the fatal handler disconnect()s the old adapter
(cancelling its supervisor) before a fresh adapter+transport is built, so there
is no double-dial.
Adds two regression tests (both proven red without the fix): connect(is_reconnect=True)
reaches the same transport-less RuntimeError instead of TypeError, and the
signature matches BasePlatformAdapter.connect.
After a prolonged outage the in-process network-error ladder escalates to
fatal and GatewayRunner._platform_reconnect_watcher rebuilds a fresh adapter
that reconnects through the bootstrap path. That path called
start_polling(drop_pending_updates=True), discarding every update Telegram
queued during the outage — all messages sent while the bot was down were
silently lost. The in-process ladder and 409-conflict handler already passed
drop_pending_updates=False; only bootstrap did not distinguish a cold first
boot from a reconnect.
Thread an is_reconnect signal from the watcher through
_connect_adapter_with_timeout into adapter.connect(). The base
BasePlatformAdapter.connect() gains a keyword-only is_reconnect=False so every
adapter inherits a tolerant signature (no per-platform breakage when the
runner forwards the kwarg). Telegram translates is_reconnect into
drop_pending_updates=not is_reconnect on both the polling and webhook bootstrap
calls. Cold boot still drops the stale queue; a watcher reconnect preserves it.
Fixes#46621.

A readable state.db can still reject every message write through the
messages_fts* triggers when the FTS5 index is corrupt: base-table reads and
PRAGMA integrity_check pass, but INSERT INTO messages fails with 'database
disk image is malformed'. The gateway reloads conversation_history from disk
each turn, so a silently-failed write hands the next turn stale/empty history
even though the same cached AIAgent still holds the live transcript — causing
immediate same-session amnesia. (#50502)
- hermes_state.py: _db_opens_cleanly() now drives a rolled-back message write
through the FTS triggers, so write-only corruption (which the read-only
probe reported healthy) is detected. repair_state_db_schema() gains an
in-place FTS5 'rebuild' strategy (tier 0) before the dedup/drop tiers, plus
an already_healthy short-circuit. Both 'hermes sessions repair' and
'hermes doctor' route through these, so the fix covers the whole class.
- hermes_cli/doctor.py: the state.db check runs the write-health probe even on
the success (readable) path and repairs in place with --fix.
- gateway/run.py: _select_cached_agent_history() prefers the cached agent's
longer live _session_messages over a shorter persisted transcript, so an
FTS write failure can't wipe in-session context.
- tests: regressions for write-health detection, in-place repair preserving
rows + resuming writes, the already_healthy shortcut, and the gateway guard.
Combines the approaches from #50504 (@0-CYBERDYNE-SYSTEMS-0, issue author),
#52165 (@davidgut1982), and #50576 (@trevorgordon981).
The scale-to-zero idle watcher never started on a correctly-opted-in,
relay-only instance, so the gateway never ran its idle decision, never called
go_dormant(), and never sent going_idle to the connector. Fly's autostop still
suspended the machine on traffic-idle, but the connector never flipped the
instance to buffered-only — so an inbound DM took the live delivery path,
found no live session for the suspended machine, and was dropped fail-closed
with no wake poke. The machine slept and never woke.
Root cause: _scale_to_zero_should_arm() passed list(config.platforms.keys())
to messaging_is_relay_only_or_absent(). config.platforms is pre-seeded with a
DISABLED placeholder PlatformConfig for every known platform (telegram,
discord, slack, matrix, …), so the key set is always the full ~20-entry
catalog regardless of what the instance actually runs. The relay-only check
discarded "relay", saw the disabled placeholders as live direct-socket
platforms, and returned False — so should_arm() was False and the watcher was
never created. Verified live on a staging instance: config.platforms keys =
[telegram, discord, slack, mattermost, matrix, relay] with only relay
enabled=True; should_arm() = False.
Fix: filter config.platforms to ENABLED entries before the relay-only check,
mirroring the adapter-connect loop which already gates on
`if not platform_config.enabled: continue`. This arms off the same notion of
"active platform" the rest of start() already uses — no parallel concept.
Also add a one-line not-armed diagnostic: when an instance IS opted in (the
HERMES_SCALE_TO_ZERO stamp is set) but the watcher still doesn't arm, log why
(relay_only_or_absent, the enabled platforms, wake_url present/missing). A
non-opted instance stays silent. The arm path previously logged only on
success, so a failed arm was invisible.
Tests: the existing pure-helper tests passed bare names so they never
exercised the call site that feeds the placeholder-laden config. Add
behaviour-contract tests against the REAL _scale_to_zero_should_arm with a
realistic config.platforms (relay enabled + others disabled). The F25
regression test (relay-only + disabled placeholders must arm) and the
no-platform case are RED without this fix, GREEN with it; the
genuinely-enabled-direct-platform / not-opted-in / no-wake-url cases stay
correctly non-arming so the filter can't over-broaden.
Wake mechanism itself verified healthy independently (direct wakeUrl GET
resumed a suspended staging instance in 1.15s, clean resume signature).
The #45966 cross-process coherence guard popped the stale cached agent
and then called the blocking _cleanup_agent_resources (memory-provider
shutdown, tool-resource teardown, async-client teardown) while still
holding _agent_cache_lock, on the gateway event-loop thread. While that
ran, _sweep_idle_cached_agents (driven by _session_expiry_watcher)
blocked acquiring the same lock and the asyncio loop stalled for minutes,
tripping repeated Discord 'heartbeat blocked' warnings.
Fix mirrors the cap-enforcer / idle-sweep paths: pop the stale entry
under the lock, release it, then schedule the SOFT release on a daemon
thread. The soft path (_release_evicted_agent_soft) is also more correct
here than the hard teardown the regression used — the same session
rebuilds a fresh agent immediately after invalidation, so its terminal
sandbox / browser / bg processes (keyed on task_id) must be preserved
for the rebuilt agent to inherit, not torn down.
Verified the cross-process site was the only cleanup-under-lock instance;
the other _cleanup_agent_resources call sites run outside the lock.
* feat(moa): expose MoA presets as selectable virtual models
Reconstructed onto current main (PR #46081's base had diverged with no common
ancestor, marking the PR dirty so CI never dispatched). MoA is now a virtual
provider: each named preset is a selectable model under provider 'moa', and the
preset's aggregator is the acting model that answers and calls tools.
Reference models fan out in parallel via a bounded ThreadPoolExecutor (the same
batch pattern delegate_task uses) — all references dispatched at once, collected
when every one finishes, then handed to the aggregator. Output order is
preserved, failures and the MoA-recursion guard stay isolated per reference.
- Removed the old mixture_of_agents model tool and moa toolset.
- Added moa as a virtual provider in the provider/model inventory.
- /moa is shortcut behavior over model selection (default preset / named preset
/ one-shot prompt).
- Dashboard + Desktop manage named presets; presets appear in model pickers.
- Parallel reference fan-out in agent/moa_loop.py with regression test.
* fix(moa): thread moa_config through _run_agent to _run_agent_inner
The reconstructed gateway MoA wiring declared moa_config on _run_agent (the
profile-scoping wrapper) and used it inside _run_agent_inner, but the wrapper
never forwarded it — _run_agent_inner had no such parameter, so the runtime hit
NameError: name 'moa_config' is not defined on the compression-failure session
sync path. Add moa_config to _run_agent_inner's signature and forward it from
both wrapper call sites (multiplex and non-multiplex). Caught by
tests/gateway/test_compression_failure_session_sync.py on CI shard test(4).
* fix(moa): classify moa as a virtual provider in the catalog
The moa virtual provider has no PROVIDER_REGISTRY/ProviderProfile entry, so
provider_catalog() fell through to the default auth_type="api_key" with no
env vars — tripping two catalog invariants:
- test_provider_catalog: api_key providers must expose a credential env var
- test_provider_parity: every hermes-model provider must be desktop-configurable
moa already declares auth_type="virtual" in HERMES_OVERLAYS; consult that
overlay as an auth_type fallback so the catalog reports moa as virtual (no real
credential, no network endpoint). Exempt virtual providers from the desktop
parity union check the same way 'custom' is exempt — derived from the catalog,
not a hardcoded slug, so future virtual providers are covered too.
Salvage of #50098 by @srojk34, cherry-picked onto current main.
The hygiene auto-compress guard and the /compress slash command both read
compression_in_place (config flag — is in-place mode enabled?) instead of
_last_compaction_in_place (result flag — did in-place compaction actually
succeed?). Both agents are built without a session_db, so archive_and_compact
always fails silently and _last_compaction_in_place stays False. Reading the
config flag makes the guard think in-place succeeded, triggering
rewrite_transcript() which replaces the original messages with only the
compressed summary — permanent data loss.
Co-authored-by: srojk34 <srojk34@users.noreply.github.com>
- Replace getattr(self.session_store, '_db', None) with self._session_db
(the GatewayRunner's own SessionDB, consistent with existing usage in
slash_commands.py L240/L499).
- Remove verbose comment referencing a branch name as an issue number.
- Update stale comment in run.py that said 'today it has no session_db'.
- Add regression test verifying session_db is passed and rotated session
is persisted (adapted from #51624 by @LeonSGP43).
- Add _session_db=None to _make_runner fixtures in test_compress_command,
test_compress_focus, and test_compress_plugin_engine.
Manual /compress and session hygiene auto-compress both create temporary
AIAgent instances to run compression. These agents were created without
a session_db, so compress_context computed the compressed messages in
memory, rotated the session ID, and reported success — but never wrote
to the database. The next user message reloaded the original full
transcript, making compression appear to do nothing.
Fix: pass session_db=self.session_store._db to both temp agents so the
session rotation is properly persisted. Also set _end_session_on_close
on the /compress temp agent (already done in hygiene path) to prevent
cleanup from ending the newly rotated session.
When the gateway persists a user message after a transient provider
failure (429/timeout/auth error), subsequent retries of the same
Telegram message could stack duplicate user turns in the transcript,
causing the agent to fall behind by 1-2 messages.
Add has_platform_message_id() to SessionDB (using the existing
idx_messages_platform_msg_id partial index) and a SessionStore wrapper.
The gateway's transient-failure path checks this before
append_to_transcript -- if the platform_message_id is already
persisted, the duplicate write is skipped.
Salvaged from #47869 by @davidgut1982. Adapted to current main which
has additional append sites and an existing content-based dedupe in
the exception handler path.
Closes#47237
Block scale-to-zero suspend while background async delegations are active, and restore runtime status to running on real inbound after a dormant wake.\n\nAdd regression coverage for both review findings.
* fix(relay): authorize relay-delivered events by delivery, not source.platform
The #52190 upstream-authz fix keyed _is_user_authorized off
source.platform via _adapter_authorization_is_upstream(source.platform).
But a relay *message* inbound carries the UNDERLYING platform
(source.platform == discord/telegram/...), NOT Platform.RELAY, because
ws_transport._event_from_wire maps the connector's wire payload
(platform="discord") straight onto SessionSource for session-keying and
egress. The relay adapter is registered only under Platform.RELAY, so
adapters.get(Platform.DISCORD) misses, the trusted-upstream branch is
skipped, and the user hits the env-allowlist default-deny:
WARNING gateway.run: Unauthorized user: <id> (<name>) on discord
(Live staging bug: alpha tester linked successfully, then every
follow-up DM was silently dropped.)
Fix: the authentic trust signal is that the event was delivered over the
per-instance-authenticated relay WS, not which platform it underlies. Add
a wire-INVISIBLE SessionSource.delivered_via_upstream_relay flag, stamped
by the relay transport in _event_from_wire, and authorize on it. The flag
is excluded from to_dict/from_dict so a peer can neither forge it across
the wire nor have it restored from persistence. The existing adapter-flag
check is retained for events whose source.platform IS Platform.RELAY
(interaction-passthrough). A direct Discord event on a multiplexing
gateway (direct + relay adapters) is unmarked and still default-denies.
* fix(relay): use identity check on delivery marker to avoid MagicMock fail-open
A MagicMock() source (used by test_signal.py and other gateway tests) auto-
vivifies source.delivered_via_upstream_relay as a truthy Mock, which a bare
truthiness check would treat as authorized — flipping
test_signal_in_allowlist_maps from False to True. The marker is a real bool on
SessionSource, so check 'is True' explicitly: refuses to authorize any non-bool
stand-in, defensive against accidental fail-open.
Addresses review on #51077 (kxee). The continuable-cron mirror reused
gateway.mirror.mirror_to_session, which writes role=assistant — re-
introducing the exact alternation violation #2313 (37a997945)
deliberately removed: a cron brief landing as assistant after the
agent's last turn yields assistant->assistant, which breaks strict-
alternation providers (OpenAI/OpenRouter) per issue #2221. The mirror/
mirror_source metadata is also dropped at the SQLite boundary, so the
[Delivered from cron] label is lost on replay.
This is an intentional, opt-in (default OFF) reversal of #2313's
'cron output does not belong in interactive history' for the reply-to-
cron use case — gated behind cron.mirror_delivery / attach_to_session.
Fixes:
- mirror_to_session gains a role param (default 'assistant' — interactive
send_message mirror unchanged, it IS the agent speaking). Cron paths
pass role='user' with a '[Cron delivery: <task>]' prefix so the brief
collapses via repair_message_sequence's consecutive-user merge on every
provider, and stays distinguishable on replay despite the metadata drop.
- thread_seeded: defer seeding + the flag until delivery into the new
thread actually succeeds. Previously set pre-delivery, so an open-
succeeds / deliver-fails case both stranded a seeded-but-unseen brief
AND suppressed the DM-fallback mirror.
- seed mirror now passes user_id='system:cron' to resolve the exact
thread-keyed session row it just created.
- dedupe the duplicate BasePlatformAdapter import in _deliver_result.
- trim oversized docstrings to non-obvious WHY (AGENTS.md).
- docs: document cron.mirror_delivery / attach_to_session in
website/docs/user-guide/features/cron.md.
- test: assert the cron mirror writes role='user' with the label prefix.
204 cron+mirror tests pass.
A DM reply carries no guild_id, so the connector's egress guard cannot
resolve the owning tenant from metadata.guild_id and declines the send
with "discord egress declined: target not routed to an onboarded tenant"
— the bug behind "the bot never replies in DMs". Guild replies are
unaffected (they carry guild_id), which is why the guild path worked
end-to-end while DMs looked broken.
The connector now resolves a DM reply's tenant from the recipient's
author binding (gateway-gateway #67, resolveByUser keyed on
metadata.user_id) — the outbound counterpart to inbound Phase 7a
author-first resolution. But it needs the recipient user_id ON the
outbound action, and the adapter only re-attached guild_id
(_capture_scope/_with_scope), no-op for DMs (the docstring even said so).
This extends the adapter's inbound-scope capture: for a DM (no guild_id)
remember chat_id -> the authentic author user_id we observed, and
re-attach it as metadata.user_id on outbound. Guild capture is unchanged
and wins when present; user_id is the DM-only fallback. The id is the one
the connector observed inbound (never gateway-asserted), so the trust
invariant holds.
+4 unit tests (DM reply re-attaches user_id + no guild_id; unknown chat
invents nothing; explicit user_id preserved; guild reply never carries
user_id). Proved load-bearing (reverting the re-attach fails the DM
test). 144 relay tests pass, ruff clean.
Pairs with gateway-gateway #67 (the connector-side resolver). Together
they close the DM-reply egress gap end-to-end.
The gateway-side BEHAVIOUR layer that consumes the relay scale-to-zero
primitives (gateway-gateway Phase 5): the gateway decides it is idle and
drives the relay transport dormant so the platform (Fly autostop:"suspend")
can suspend the now-traffic-idle machine, which wakes on the connector's
wakeUrl poke (decisions.md Q3=C', D1-D13).
- gateway/scale_to_zero.py: pure helpers — scale_to_zero_enabled (the NAS
Labs HERMES_SCALE_TO_ZERO stamp, D11/Q8=A), parse_idle_timeout_seconds
(config.yaml gateway.scale_to_zero.idle_timeout_minutes, D2),
messaging_is_relay_only_or_absent (F6/D1), should_arm (D1/D11/§3.4(1)),
is_idle (D2/D3/F7).
- gateway/run.py: _last_inbound_at clock stamped on user inbound in
_handle_message (F13); the arm-gate + idle predicate + the
_scale_to_zero_watcher dormant sequence (mark draining -> adapter
go_dormant() -> cooldown), started only when armed. Deliberately NOT the
stop path and NOT mark_resume_pending (F12/D13).
- tools/process_registry.py: has_any_active() for the bg-work guard (D3/F7).
- hermes_cli/config.py: gateway.scale_to_zero.idle_timeout_minutes default 5.
Tests: 38 pure-logic + 6 watcher (incl. bg-work regression guard proven RED).
Full relay + scale-to-zero suites: 184 passed. The 20 unrelated failures in
the broader run are PRE-EXISTING on origin/main (custom-provider/tools tests),
confirmed via a pristine baseline worktree.
Net-new WebSocketRelayTransport.go_dormant() + RelayAdapter.go_dormant() —
the third transport mode the scale-to-zero behaviour layer needs, distinct
from both disconnect() and an unexpected close (decisions.md D12/F14):
- disconnect() sets _closing=True and CANCELS the reconnect supervisor
(terminal "shutting down for good") -> a suspended machine never re-dials
on wake, stranding its buffered backlog.
- an unexpected close re-dials IMMEDIATELY -> the socket never stays down,
so the platform proxy never suspends the machine.
go_dormant(): going_idle->ack (reuse go_idle), then close the socket WITHOUT
setting _closing, so the reader's fall-through still arms the reconnect
supervisor (wake path stays live) but on the longer _dormant_redial_s
cadence so it doesn't fight the platform suspend window. A successful re-dial
clears _dormant. Honors the §3.4 wake->reconnect->drain contract.
Tests: 6 new in test_relay_going_idle.py incl. the F14 regression guard
(routing dormancy through disconnect() fails exactly the 4 wake-path tests).
Full relay suite 140 passed.
PR #52151 hardened the runtime-status liveness check to trust a readable
live process command line over stale gateway_state.json argv, so a recycled
PID now owned by an s6 supervisor no longer counts as a running gateway.
That fix is correct but incomplete for the reported symptom: the web
dashboard showed a named profile's gateway green while
`hermes -p <name> gateway status` showed it stopped. Two further issues:
1. Cross-profile PID reuse. In per-profile Docker supervision, one profile's
stale `gateway_state.json` can record a PID the OS later recycled onto a
DIFFERENT profile's live gateway. That PID's command line still
`looks_like_gateway`, so the dead profile was reported running. The
recorded argv has its `-p <name>` selector stripped in-process by
`_apply_profile_override`, so it cannot disambiguate; the live `/proc`
cmdline still carries it. `get_runtime_status_running_pid` now accepts an
`expected_home` and validates the live command line belongs to THAT
profile (mirroring `hermes_cli.gateway._matches_current_profile`, the
logic the CLI scan path already uses — which is why the CLI was correct).
`_check_gateway_running` passes the enumerated profile dir.
2. The existing regression test `test_gateway_running_check_falls_back_to_
runtime_state` used the live pytest PID with a gateway-shaped record; once
the live cmdline became authoritative it no longer looked like a gateway.
Updated to mock the live cmdline to the real separate-process scenario it
describes.
The active-profile path (`get_running_pid`) is intentionally left unscoped:
it is lock-verified and any live gateway cmdline is acceptable there. Multiplex
mode is unaffected — `running` state is only ever written to a gateway's own
home, never a secondary served profile's.
Adds coverage for: cross-profile PID reuse (named + default), matching
profile cmdline (`-p`, `--profile`, explicit HERMES_HOME=), the bare default
gateway, and the unreadable-cmdline cross-platform fallback. Each new
cross-profile assertion fails without the profile scope and passes with it.

A hosted instance fronted by the Team Gateway connector dropped EVERY relay
message as "Unauthorized user" and the agent never replied — despite the
message routing correctly through the connector to the instance.
Root cause: gateway authorization (_is_user_authorized) had no notion of
upstream-enforced authz. Platform.RELAY matches no {PLATFORM}_ALLOWED_USERS
allowlist and isn't in the HA/WEBHOOK always-authorized set, so a relay user
with no env allowlist configured hit the default-deny ("No user allowlists
configured. All unauthorized users will be denied."). The message was received,
then silently denied before reaching the agent.
This is incorrect for relay: the connector authenticates the gateway's WS with
a per-instance secret and performs owner-only author-binding resolution BEFORE
delivering. A message only reaches this gateway because the connector resolved
it to THIS instance's bound user (user_instance_binding), keyed on the author id
the connector OBSERVED off the event — never a gateway claim. The authorization
decision is already made by a trusted, authenticated upstream; there is no local
RELAY_ALLOWED_USERS allowlist to consult, and default-denying for its absence is
the bug.
Fix: add a generic BasePlatformAdapter.authorization_is_upstream capability
(default False) that the relay adapter overrides to True, plus a dedicated
trusted branch in _is_user_authorized that honors it. This is delegation to a
trusted upstream, NOT a fail-open: it fires only for an adapter that explicitly
declares the flag; every direct network-exposed adapter leaves it False and the
env-allowlist default-deny (SECURITY.md §2.6) is unchanged. Distinct from
enforces_own_access_policy, which mirrors a LOCAL config-driven allowlist —
this delegates to an authenticated upstream's decision.
Tests: behavior contract that the base defaults False, the relay adapter
declares True, a relay user (group + DM) is authorized with no env allowlist,
and crucially a non-upstream adapter with no allowlist still default-denies
(guards against the fix becoming a blanket fail-open). 6 new tests; relay +
authz + config-policy suites green (134 + 90).

When Telegram's sendRichMessage returns a FloodWait/RetryAfter error,
_try_send_rich() now extracts the server-provided retry_after value and
propagates it through SendResult.retry_after. The base _send_with_retry()
layer honors this value instead of using its default short exponential
backoff (~2s, ~4s), preventing the retry budget from being exhausted
against a server that demands a 25-37s wait.

Corrupted sessions.json entries (e.g. a bare bool where a dict is
expected) caused TypeError on 'origin' in data' which escaped the
(ValueError, KeyError) inner except and aborted loading ALL remaining
sessions, not just the corrupted one.
Two-layer fix:
- Loop level: isinstance(entry_data, dict) guard before from_dict
- from_dict: isinstance(data['origin'], dict) instead of bare truthiness
- Added TypeError to the inner except as defense-in-depth
Closes#46994
Add compression.minimum_context_floor config key that allows users
to lower the compression threshold floor below the hardcoded 64K
default, preventing infinite tool-call loops on models whose
structured output degrades well before 64K tokens.

helper with 16K hard safety limit
- agent/context_compressor.py: accept minimum_context_floor param,
thread it through _compute_threshold_tokens
- agent/conversation_compression.py: use compressor's floor for
aux model context validation
- agent/agent_init.py: read compression.minimum_context_floor from
config and pass to ContextCompressor

The /new (and /reset) confirmation-button callback runs the slash-confirm
handler on the asyncio event loop (see _request_slash_confirm). That handler
calls _handle_reset_command, which invoked the SYNCHRONOUS, potentially
long-blocking _cleanup_agent_resources inline: agent.close() tears down
terminal sandboxes, browser daemons and background processes (subprocess
waits), and shutdown_memory_provider() can make a network call. A slow
teardown wedged the entire event loop, so the bot went silent and stopped
processing all messages until a manual restart.
Offload _cleanup_agent_resources via the existing contextvar-preserving
_run_in_executor_with_context helper, bounded by asyncio.wait_for with a
named _RESET_CLEANUP_TIMEOUT_S (30s). The loop is never blocked; on timeout
the reset proceeds and the worker thread is left to finish on its own (it
cannot be cancelled). The text /new path is unaffected (already off-loop).
Tests (tests/gateway/test_35994_reset_button_deadlock.py): the loop keeps
ticking while close() blocks in its worker thread; a cleanup that raises is
swallowed (warning logged) and the reset still rotates the session; a
cleanup that times out degrades gracefully. All three are mutation-verified
to fail without their respective production branch.
After /stop, the next user message can hit a stale generation token and
return with api_calls=0, no failure, no interruption. _normalize_empty_agent_response
fell through to an empty string, so the gateway logged "response=0 chars"
and sent nothing — the message was silently lost while internal work
sometimes continued.
Add the api_calls==0 / not-failed / not-interrupted / not-partial branch
to the single normalization chokepoint so the user gets a short retry hint
instead of silence. Regression test asserts the hint surfaces.
Salvaged from #33851 (re-applied on current main; original was 1401 commits
behind and the function had moved).
When `/model X` is the FIRST message after an idle/daily/suspended auto-reset,
the slash-command path stores a session model override but leaves
`session_entry.was_auto_reset = True` (it never passes through
`_handle_message_with_agent`, which is where the flag was consumed). On the
NEXT regular message, the auto-reset cleanup block pops the freshly-stored
model/reasoning override BEFORE the flag is consumed — so the switch is
silently lost and resolution falls back to the config default, while the
session DB still shows the switched model (a two-sources-of-truth divergence).
Consume the flag at both sites:
1. gateway/run.py — capture `was_auto_reset` into a local and set the
attribute False immediately at the top of the cleanup block, so the
cleanup can't re-fire on a later message and wipe an override stored
between turns. Downstream reads use the captured local.
2. gateway/slash_commands.py — the model path consumes the flag before
storing the override, so a /model-first-after-auto-reset isn't wiped by
the next message's cleanup.
Salvaged from #48062 by x7peeps (authorship preserved).
Tests: tests/gateway/test_48031_model_switch_after_auto_reset.py — AST
invariants pinning both consume sites (load-bearing; verified they fail when
either consume is removed). Mirrors the AST-pin approach in
test_35809_auto_reset_clean_context.py. Gateway session/reset suite: 16 passed.
Fixes#48031
The Discord/Telegram /model slash command listed providers synchronously
on the gateway's async event loop. list_picker_providers /
list_authenticated_providers are blocking and can fall through to a
synchronous urllib HTTP fetch when the on-disk provider cache is stale,
freezing the loop for 120-150s -> "application did not respond" and
delayed agent starts.
Port #41304's asyncio.to_thread offload to the current handler location.
The handler moved from gateway/run.py to gateway/slash_commands.py
(_handle_model_command); wrap BOTH blocking call sites so the whole bug
class is covered:
- picker path -> list_picker_providers
- text-fallback path -> list_authenticated_providers
asyncio.to_thread is already idiomatic in this module (and asyncio is
imported), so the loop now stays responsive while the (possibly
network-bound) listing runs on a worker thread.
Adds tests/gateway/test_model_command_async_offload.py asserting the
offload contract at the real handler seam for both paths (mutation-
survivable: reverting either to_thread wrap fails the matching test).

The Discord gateway heartbeat stalled ('Shard ID None heartbeat blocked
for more than N seconds') because _handoff_watcher polled the synchronous,
blocking SQLite-backed SessionDB directly on the asyncio event loop every
2s. Each list_pending/claim/complete/fail call performed blocking disk I/O
on the loop thread, starving the Discord heartbeat coroutine.
Wrap every blocking SessionDB call inside the watcher loop in
asyncio.to_thread(...) so the SQLite work runs on a worker thread and the
event loop (and heartbeat) stays responsive. These four call sites are the
only synchronous self._session_db.* calls inside the watcher loop body.
Adds tests/gateway/test_handoff_watcher_async_db.py asserting the watcher
offloads its SessionDB calls via asyncio.to_thread (mutation-survivable:
reverting any to_thread wrap fails the corresponding assertion).

Phase 7 Unit 7d-B. When an operator opts an instance OUT of the Team Gateway
relay (Unit 7b deprovision), the connector revokes the per-gateway secret and
closes the gateway's WS with 4401. The reconnect supervisor previously treated
EVERY close as retryable, so the live process spun "retrying 4401" forever and
the dashboard showed a red error — opt-out looked like a failure.
Now a 4401 close that arrives AFTER a successful handshake is recognized as a
terminal credential revocation:
- ws_transport.py: track `_handshake_succeeded` (set when a descriptor is
received); on a 4401 close after a prior success, latch `auth_revoked` and do
NOT spawn the reconnect supervisor. A 4401 BEFORE any successful handshake
stays retryable (cold-start / not-yet-provisioned race, not a revocation).
New `auth_revoked` property + a websockets-version-safe close-code reader
(prefers `.rcvd`/`.sent` Close frames; `.code` is deprecated in websockets 13+).
- adapter.py: a revocation monitor turns `transport.auth_revoked` into a clean,
NON-retryable `relay_disabled` fatal and notifies the gateway's fatal-error
handler (so the adapter is removed and NOT queued for reconnection — the
credential is dead until the instance is recreated). Monitor is cancelled on
disconnect; only started when the transport exposes `auth_revoked` (prod WS).
- run.py: `_handle_adapter_fatal_error` maps the `relay_disabled` code to a
`disabled` platform_state (not `fatal`/`retrying`).
- web: PlatformsCard renders the `disabled` state with a neutral outline badge,
a PowerOff icon, and muted (not destructive-red) text + message. New optional
`status.disabled` i18n string ("Disabled").
Also bundles the Phase 7 contract-doc update (this doc is authoritative in
hermes-agent): docs/relay-connector-contract.md gains an "Author-first
resolution + the account-link (DM) path" section documenting the
multi-tenant-guild rule (D-7.2 — route by authenticated author binding, never by
guild; unlinked → fail-closed), the `/link <code>` DM flow, and the
connector-authoritative opt-out + terminal-4401 behavior this PR implements.
Tests: +2 ws_transport (4401-after-handshake terminal / no-reconnect;
4401-before-handshake stays retryable) and +2 adapter (revocation → non-retryable
relay_disabled fatal + handler fired; no-revocation → no fatal). 138 relay tests
pass (incl. the contract-doc conformance test); ruff clean; web tsc clean.
Phase 7 Unit 7d-B (relay-adapter solo lane). Q17 → Option 2; Option 3 (live
de-register, no recreate) + the restart-re-provision hole deferred post-alpha.
On a launchd-managed gateway (macOS), /restart stopped the gateway but
never relaunched it: the handler's service detection checks only
INVOCATION_ID (systemd) and container markers, so under launchd it takes
the detached path and exits 0 — which KeepAlive.SuccessfulExit=false
treats as a deliberate stop. The gateway stays silently dead until a
manual launchctl kickstart.
Detect launchd via XPC_SERVICE_NAME, which launchd sets to the job label
for processes it spawns. The probe deliberately excludes the literal
"0": interactive macOS shells inherit XPC_SERVICE_NAME=0 (a truthy
string), and routing an unsupervised interactive gateway to the service
path would make it exit non-zero with nothing to revive it.
Routing through via_service=True (rather than forcing a non-zero exit
on the detached path) matters: the detached path also spawns a helper
that relaunches the gateway, so exiting non-zero there would have BOTH
the helper and launchd respawn it — two gateways racing for the same
bot tokens. The service path spawns no helper; launchd is the single
respawner.
Fixes#43475. Supersedes the run.py-era probes in #19940/#33393 (the
handler has since moved to gateway/slash_commands.py) and avoids the
double-spawn risk in the exit-code-site approaches (#43498, #43596).
Users who inspect ~/.hermes/sessions/sessions.json see only gateway entries
(e.g. agent:main:whatsapp:dm:...) and mistake it for the session index that
hermes sessions list / /sessions read — which is actually state.db. Issue
#49361 reported CLI sessions as 'invisible' on this premise.
- gateway/session.py: write a self-documenting _README sentinel at the top of
sessions.json explaining it's the gateway routing index and that ALL sessions
(CLI/TUI/gateway) live in state.db; skip _-prefixed keys on load so the
sentinel never round-trips into a SessionEntry.
- Harden every sessions.json reader against the sentinel: mcp_serve loader,
gateway/mirror.py, gateway/channel_directory.py all skip _-prefixed keys.
- docs/user-guide/sessions.md: warning callout naming the exact symptom.
- tests: assert prune ignores metadata sentinels; add round-trip coverage.
The dashboard Profiles view showed "Gateway stopped" for a gateway that
is in fact running — while the sidebar status strip and `hermes gateway
status` (CLI) both correctly showed it running. Reported on v0.17.0
running the gateway + dashboard in one Docker container.
Root cause: three liveness surfaces with three detection strengths, all
reading the same `gateway.pid`:
- `hermes gateway status` -> find_gateway_pids() (process-table scan)
- sidebar /api/status -> get_running_pid() + gateway_state.json PID
fallback + health-URL probe
- Profiles view -> _check_gateway_running() = get_running_pid()
ONLY, no fallback
`get_running_pid()` short-circuits to None the moment the runtime lock
(`gateway.lock`) doesn't register as held by the *calling* process —
which is always true when the reader is a separate process from the
gateway (the dashboard is its own s6 service in the container), and also
for any launch-service-managed gateway that left a fresh
`gateway_state.json` but no live PID file. So the Profiles view alone
reported the live gateway as stopped.
Fix: give _check_gateway_running the same fallback the sidebar already
has — after the pid-file/lock check misses, validate the PID recorded in
that profile's gateway_state.json against the live process table via the
existing get_runtime_status_running_pid(). read_runtime_status() gains an
optional path arg so a profile's state file can be read without mutating
the process-global HERMES_HOME (preserving the contextvar-based profile
isolation the dashboard relies on). Backward compatible: every existing
caller passes no argument.
Tests: a regression test that fails pre-fix (live gateway, lock check
returns None -> must still report running) and a guard test that a
'stopped' state file is never reported running even with a live PID.
The contributor PR stamped runner._exit_code=78 on non-retryable startup
errors, but start_gateway()'s clean-exit branch returned True before the
SystemExit(runner.exit_code) site, so main() exited 0. The s6 finish
script's [ "$1" = "78" ] check never matched and s6 crash-looped the
gateway anyway — the fix was dead as shipped (#51228).
Honor runner.exit_code in the clean-exit branch: raise SystemExit(code)
when set, else return True (normal /restart clean exit). Add a
start_gateway()-level test that asserts process-level SystemExit(78)
propagation — the gap the PR's object-level test missed — plus exit_code
on the existing _CleanExitRunner mocks.
Profiles without their own messaging token inherit the default
profile's token via os.getenv, hit a token collision, and exit with
startup_failed. s6 restarts them immediately, creating ~30MB tirith
sandbox dirs in /tmp each cycle — filling the disk in hours (#51228).
Changes:
- gateway/restart.py: add GATEWAY_FATAL_CONFIG_EXIT_CODE = 78
- gateway/run.py: set exit_code=78 on non-retryable startup errors
(token collision, no platforms)
- hermes_cli/service_manager.py: add _render_finish_script() that
translates exit 78 → exit 125 (s6 permanent failure)
- hermes_cli/container_boot.py: write finish script alongside run
script during profile registration
The s6 finish script pattern follows docker/s6-rc.d/dashboard/finish.
Closes#51228
Register a per-instance wakeUrl and forward it to the connector at
self-provision so a suspended gateway can be poked awake when buffered
work arrives (pairs with the connector-side WakePoker).
- relay_wake_url() resolver (env GATEWAY_RELAY_WAKE_URL, then
gateway.relay_wake_url in config.yaml), mirroring relay_instance_id()
- thread wake_url through _post_provision (adds wakeUrl to the body only
when set) + self_provision_relay (resolve, forward, log)
- hermes gateway enroll --wake-url <url> persists GATEWAY_RELAY_WAKE_URL
- document the §5.2 wake poke in relay-connector-contract.md §3.3
- tests: relay_wake_url resolution (env/config/absent), provision
forwarding, body-only-when-set (6 new; 130 relay tests pass)
The actual reconnect+drain on wake is Unit B's loop; this unit only
wires the wake SIGNAL. Opt-in: absent wakeUrl => connector never pokes.
The gateway half of the going-idle/buffered-flip primitive (scale-to-zero
PRIMITIVE, not the behaviour). Integrates with the EXISTING drain transition:
- ws_transport: `go_idle()` sends `going_idle` + awaits the connector's
`going_idle_ack` (connector-authoritative flip-then-ack, Q-5.3c — stays
serving until the ack so nothing is lost in the flip window); acks a buffered
inbound (bufferId present) via `inbound_ack` after the handler runs
(drain-without-dup on the delivery leg); NET-NEW reconnect loop re-dials +
re-handshakes after an unexpected close (off by default, on in production).
- adapter: emits `going_idle` from its existing `disconnect()` drain seam before
tearing down the socket; best-effort + guarded (never blocks shutdown).
- transport Protocol + contract doc §3.2 document the 3 new frames.
+6 relay tests (124 pass). NOT in scope: the autonomous idle timer / machine
suspend / NAS health model (deferred behaviour). Ben's relay-adapter solo lane.
_session_task_is_stale() failed to detect a stale session lock when the owner
task completed and cleaned _session_tasks (del in _process_message_background's
finally) but _active_sessions was NOT released because _release_session_guard
skipped on a guard mismatch (a concurrent reset/new command or drain handoff
swapped _active_sessions[key] to a different guard). With no owner task left to
inspect, _session_task_is_stale reported 'not stale', the orphaned guard was
never healed, and the session deadlocked permanently — later messages received
but never dispatched.
Reorder the finally cleanup to release-then-conditional-delete: release the
guard first, then drop the _session_tasks entry ONLY if the guard was actually
released (session_key no longer in _active_sessions). On a guard mismatch the
done-task entry survives, so the on-entry self-heal (_session_task_is_stale ->
_heal_stale_session_lock) detects the stale lock and clears it on the next
inbound message.
Extracted the cleanup into a callable _cleanup_finished_session_task() helper so
the regression test drives the REAL production code path rather than a copy of
its logic (the original test inlined the fixed logic and passed regardless of
the production order — mutation-verified the rewritten tests now fail on the
buggy del-first order). Added a positive-path test (guard matches -> release +
delete) so both branches are pinned.

Open-ended skill learning across every surface. /learn <free text> takes a
description of any source — a directory, a URL, the workflow you just walked
the agent through, or pasted notes — and the live agent gathers it with the
tools it already has (read_file/search_files, web_extract, the conversation,
the pasted text), then authors a SKILL.md via skill_manage following the
house authoring standards (<=60-char description, the standard section order,
Hermes-tool framing, no invented commands).
No engine, no model-tool footprint, works on any terminal backend (local,
Docker, remote): /learn builds a standards-guided prompt and hands it to the
agent as a normal turn.
- agent/learn_prompt.py: shared standards-guided prompt builder
- /learn registry entry (both surfaces) + CLI handler (inject onto input
queue) + gateway handler (rewrite turn, fall through, /blueprint pattern)
- tui_gateway command.dispatch returns a send directive -> TUI + dashboard chat
- dashboard Skills page 'Learn a skill' panel (dir + URL + open-ended text)
composes a /learn request and runs it in chat
- docs (slash-commands ref + skills feature page), 11 targeted tests
Inspired by OpenAI Codex's Record & Replay and the /learn concept from #47234
(dir-distillation engine); reworked to be open-ended and engine-free per
review.
Adds a per-platform display.reasoning_style setting (code | blockquote |
subtext) controlling how the show_reasoning summary renders on the gateway.
Discord defaults to "subtext" (-# small grey metadata text); every other
platform keeps the fenced code block. Resolves through the existing
display.platforms.<platform>.reasoning_style override chain.
The gateway half of Phase 6 Unit ζ: project the agent's existing relevance
knobs into the connector's platform-agnostic vocabulary and declare them at boot
over the /relay/policy route, so the SAME mention-gating / free-response /
allow-bots behavior the agent applies directly also governs relay delivery (and
excluded chatter never wakes a scaled-to-zero agent).
- gateway/relay/__init__.py:
- relay_relevance_policy(): project require_mention -> requireAddress,
free_response_channels -> freeResponseScopes, {PLATFORM}_ALLOW_BOTS in
{mentions,all} -> allowOtherBots. Reads the fronted platform's config block
+ bridged top-level keys. Returns None when all-default (the connector's
quiet default already matches) or no concrete platform is fronted.
- send_relay_policy(): POST /relay/policy authenticated with the gateway's own
per-gateway upgrade token (make_upgrade_token — same bearer as the WS
upgrade), so the connector attaches it to the authenticated instance, never
a body-asserted id. Re-declares every boot (self-healing, full replace).
NEVER raises, NEVER blocks boot — relevance is an optimization layered on
the δ/ε authorization gate. Reuses the per-gateway secret + the
/relay/provision host; no new inbound surface, no new credential.
- _policy_url(): ws(s)://…/relay -> http(s)://…/relay/policy.
- gateway/run.py: call send_relay_policy() after register_relay_adapter()
succeeds (the secret is resolved by then).
- docs/relay-connector-contract.md: new §7 documenting per-instance delivery +
the management plane (/manage/* + /relay/policy) + the relevance-declaration
contract; versioning renumbered to §8. Contract conformance test stays green
(§2/§3 tables untouched).
Tests: +12 (projection mapping incl. comma-string + top-level fallback; send
auth/skip/fail-soft/non-200). Full relay suite 118 pass. The connector route is
already E2E-proven (connector repo gateway_policy_driver.py); this adds the real
gateway send-path it pairs with.
This completes Phase 6 (Team Gateway per-user isolation) end to end.
Follow-up to the /memory approve fresh-store fix. Both the CLI fallback and
the messaging-gateway handler built a bare MemoryStore() with the hardcoded
default char limits (2200/1375), ignoring the user's configured
memory.memory_char_limit / user_char_limit. A live agent honors those
overrides (agent/agent_init.py), so an approval applied without a live agent
could accept a write the user's lower cap would reject, or vice versa.
Extract a shared tools.memory_tool.load_on_disk_store() factory that reads
the configured limits (falling back to defaults if config can't load) and
wire both the CLI and gateway handlers to it, closing the gap on both
surfaces and de-duplicating the construction block.
The media-delivery denylist in gateway/platforms/base.py enumerated only
.env/auth.json/credentials/config.yaml under HERMES_HOME, so other
credential stores that live at the root fell through and could be
auto-attached to chat replies. The reported case: the Google Workspace
skill's google_token.json refreshes every turn, bumping its mtime to
'now', which kept passing the strict-mode recency window and re-sent the
OAuth token on every reply.
Extend the explicit per-file denylist to mirror the canonical credential
set already enforced by the read/write guards in agent/file_safety.py:
google_token.json, google_oauth_pending.json, auth/google_oauth.json,
.anthropic_oauth.json, webhook_subscriptions.json, cache/bws_cache.json,
auth.lock, and the pairing/ token directory.
Targeted per-file additions (not a blanket ~/.hermes deny, which was
declined in #32090/#34425 because it would block skills/, logs/, and
ad-hoc agent-written deliverables). mcp-tokens/ (#37222) and
state.db/kanban.db (#41071) are left to their sibling targeted PRs.

Adds an optional structured completion contract to the standing-goal loop,
adapted from OpenAI Codex's /goal guidance (a durable objective works best
when it names what done means, how to prove it, what not to break, what's in
scope, and when to stop).
A contract has five optional fields — outcome, verification, constraints,
boundaries, stop_when. When set, the continuation prompt tells the agent to
target the verification surface and respect constraints, and the judge marks
the goal done only when the verification criterion is met with concrete
evidence (command result, file excerpt, test output) instead of a loose
"looks done" claim. This tightens the most common /goal failure mode:
premature completion / endless over-continuation on an underspecified goal.
Two ways to set a contract, both backward compatible (bare /goal <text>
behaves exactly as before):
- /goal draft <objective> — expands plain text into a full contract via the
goal_judge aux model (cache-safe side call), falls back to a free-form goal
if the model is unavailable.
- /goal <text> with inline 'field: value' lines (verify:, constraints:,
boundaries:, stop when:, ...). Plain goals with an incidental colon are not
mangled — only known field prefixes are pulled out.
- /goal show prints the active contract.
Contracts persist in SessionDB.state_meta alongside the goal (survive /resume),
compose with /subgoal criteria, and old goal rows load unchanged. CLI + every
gateway platform via the shared GoalManager engine; zero new model tools.
Tests: +18 in tests/hermes_cli/test_goals.py (parse/serialize/judge-prompt/
draft/fallback), 73/73 green; 42/42 across the broader goal test surface;
live E2E roundtrip (set -> persist -> reload -> contract-aware prompts) green.
* feat(goals): add /goal wait <pid> barrier to park the loop on a background process
The /goal loop re-pokes the agent every turn via the post-turn judge. When a
goal is gated on a long-running background process (CI poller, build, test
matrix, deploy) that produces nothing to judge yet, this spins the agent into
'is it done?' busy-work and burns the turn budget.
/goal wait <pid> [reason] parks the loop: while the PID is alive, the judge is
skipped, no turn is consumed, no continuation fires, and /goal status shows a
parked indicator. The barrier auto-clears the moment the process exits (the
agent's notify_on_complete watcher is the natural wake signal), then the next
turn resumes normal judging. /goal unwait clears it manually; pause/resume/clear
drop it; a dead/stale PID can never wedge the loop.
Wired across CLI, gateway, and the mid-run command guard for parity. Barrier
persists in SessionDB.state_meta (survives /resume); GoalState gains
backward-compatible waiting_on_pid/waiting_reason/waiting_since fields. 12 new
tests; docs updated.
* fix(goals): use gateway.status._pid_exists for liveness, not os.kill(pid,0)
The Windows-footguns CI guard flagged os.kill(pid, 0) in _pid_alive — on
Windows that's not a no-op, it routes to CTRL_C_EVENT and hard-kills the
target's console process group (bpo-14484). Delegate to the canonical
footgun-safe gateway.status._pid_exists (psutil + ctypes/POSIX fallback)
instead, with a direct-psutil last resort.
* feat(goals): judge-driven auto-wait — the loop parks itself, no manual /goal wait
Makes the wait barrier automatic. Every turn the judge is shown the agent's
live background processes (pid, command, uptime, output tail from the
process_registry) alongside the goal + response, and can return a new 'wait'
verdict instead of continue:
{"verdict":"wait","wait_on_pid":N} → park until that process exits
{"verdict":"wait","wait_for_seconds":N} → park until the deadline passes
evaluate_after_turn acts on the directive (sets the barrier, parks the loop)
so the agent isn't re-poked into busy-work while CI/builds/deploys run. Adds a
time-based waiting_until barrier alongside the pid barrier; both auto-clear and
can never wedge the loop. Drivers (CLI, gateway, tui_gateway) feed the live
registry in via gather_background_processes(). Manual /goal wait stays as an
override. Judge verdict contract widened to (verdict, reason, parse_failed,
wait_directive); legacy {"done":bool} shape still accepted.
* test(goals): update kanban _fake_judge to the 4-tuple judge contract
CI test(3) caught it: test_kanban_goal_mode's _fake_judge still returned the
3-tuple (verdict, reason, parse_failed), but the kanban loop now unpacks the
4-tuple (+ wait_directive). Update the fake to return None for the directive
and accept the background_processes kwarg.
* feat(goals): trigger-based wait — park on a process's own signal, not just exit
Addresses two gaps in the judge-driven wait: (1) the judge could only express
'wait until PID exits' or 'wait N seconds', so a long-lived watcher/server that
fires a trigger MID-RUN (and may never exit) couldn't be waited on; (2) the
process's own watch_patterns/notify_on_complete trigger was invisible to the judge.
Adds a session-based barrier (waiting_on_session) that releases on the process's
OWN trigger via process_registry.is_session_waiting(): the session exits, OR (if
started with watch_patterns) its pattern matches — even while the process keeps
running. list_sessions() now surfaces session_id + watch_patterns/watch_hit/
notify_on_complete so the judge sees the trigger and is told to prefer
wait_on_session for trigger processes. Judge verdict gains a {wait_on_session}
directive (preferred over pid). Backward-compatible GoalState field; pid + time
barriers unchanged.
Tests: TestSessionTriggerBarrier (release on mid-run pattern match while alive,
release on exit, unknown-session, full park→trigger→resume, parse, validation,
backcompat load). 105 goal-surface + 85 process_registry tests green.
Follow-up to ScotterMonk's cron-truncation fix:
- Remove HERMES_DELIVERY_MAX_PLATFORM_OUTPUT env var. Behavioral config
belongs in config.yaml, not a new HERMES_* env var (.env is secrets
only). The actual bug is fixed entirely by the adapter-aware skip; the
configurable cap was unneeded scope. MAX_PLATFORM_OUTPUT is a constant
again, collapsing the max_output=0 disable branch and the
audit-vs-truncation threshold divergence.
- Flag the remaining verified-chunking adapters (slack, matrix, feishu,
mattermost, teams, whatsapp, whatsapp_cloud, weixin, bluebubbles,
yuanbao) with splits_long_messages=True so the fix covers the whole
bug class, not just Discord/Telegram. Each verified to chunk in its
own send() via truncate_message().
- SMS deliberately left False: it chunks for normal replies but a
multi-segment cron blast is cost-bearing; the 4000-cap + file save is
the safer default there.
- Update tests: drop the two env-override tests, add a test asserting a
save failure during truncation (non-chunking) propagates.
Gateway-level truncation (MAX_PLATFORM_OUTPUT=4000) was pre-empting
adapter-side message splitting. Discord and Telegram both chunk long
content natively in their send() via truncate_message(), but the
delivery router truncated to 3800 chars + footer before the adapter
ever saw the full payload — so long cron output was cut short instead
of being delivered as multiple messages (issue #50126).
Changes:
- HERMES_DELIVERY_MAX_PLATFORM_OUTPUT env var makes the cap configurable
(default 4000, backward compatible). Set to 0 to disable truncation.
- TRUNCATED_VISIBLE (3800) removed — visible portion now derived
dynamically from max_output minus the actual footer length.
- New BasePlatformAdapter.splits_long_messages capability flag (default
False). Adapters that chunk in send() set True; delivery skips
truncation for them but still saves full output to disk as audit.
- Flagged Discord and Telegram (both verified to chunk in send()).
Fixes#50126
Add relay_instance_id() (env GATEWAY_RELAY_INSTANCE_ID first, then
gateway.relay_instance_id in config.yaml, mirroring the other relay readers) and
forward it in the /relay/provision body so the connector can bind
gatewayId -> instanceId and route inbound per-instance once Phase 6 delivery
lands.
The value is gateway-asserted but safely scoped: the org/tenant stays
NAS-token-verified at the connector, so a dishonest gateway can only bind its
OWN tenant's instance — same posture as relay_endpoint(). instanceId is only
added to the body when present, so omitting it lets the connector store null
(back-compat: self-hosted / pre-Phase-6 gateways simply have no binding yet).
For a managed (NAS-hosted) agent the id is NAS's AgentInstance.id, stamped into
the container env beside GATEWAY_RELAY_URL.
Tests: reader (env/config/absent), self_provision_relay forwards the id (set +
absent), and the real _post_provision body includes instanceId ONLY when set.
Refs: ~/nous/specs/gateway-gateway plan.md Phase 6 Unit α; decisions.md Q11.
Tirith redacts its own findings, but the approval-request callbacks built the
operator prompt from the RAW command string, so a credential-shaped value
Tirith flagged was sent verbatim to clients, undoing the redaction one layer up.
Two egress transports carried the leak; both are fixed via a shared
module-level seam _redact_approval_command() (redact_sensitive_text force=True):
1. chat platforms — _approval_notify_sync (gateway/run.py): redact before
both the button path (send_exec_approval) and the plain-text /approve
fallback.
2. SSE/API stream — _approval_notify (gateway/platforms/api_server.py):
redact event['command'] before it is enqueued to API/desktop clients.
(whole-bug-class: sibling call path on a separate transport.)
force=True so the prompt — a hard secret-egress boundary — honors redaction
even when security.redact_secrets is off. Clean commands pass through unchanged.
Tests bind the seam (synthetic credential-format fixtures, force-when-disabled) AND assert
BOTH callbacks ASSIGN the redacted result before the send/enqueue sink, via an
AST contract that rejects a discarded-result call. All mutation-checked.
The connector half (gateway-gateway) moves the passthrough plane's post-ACK
forward off the HTTP gatewayEndpoint onto the gateway's outbound /relay WS via
a new passthrough_forward frame. This is the gateway side: the relay adapter
now RECEIVES and handles that frame, so a hosted gateway (no public IP) can
process forwarded Class-2/3 traffic (Discord interactions, Twilio) over the
socket it already holds — closing the "passthrough inbound doesn't work for
hosted gateways" gap.
- ws_transport.py: decode the passthrough_forward frame; PassthroughForward
dataclass + _passthrough_from_wire (base64 body -> exact bytes, byte parity
with the connector's toPassthroughForward); set_passthrough_handler mirrors
set_interrupt_inbound_handler.
- transport.py: PassthroughHandler type + set_passthrough_handler on the
RelayTransport protocol.
- adapter.py: connect() wires the passthrough handler; _on_passthrough decodes
the (already-sanitized, token-free) forward and, for a Discord interaction,
converts it to a MessageEvent routed through the normal agent path
(handle_message) — the reply egresses over the outbound / token-less
follow_up path, so the gateway never holds the interaction credential. Never
raises (a bad forward can't kill the read loop). Non-discord forwards (Twilio)
are logged + dropped for now.
- docs/relay-connector-contract.md: document the passthrough_forward frame +
PassthroughForward shape + §3.1.
The interaction -> MessageEvent CONVERSION semantics (slash-command vs button
UX, option rendering) are the open sub-design flagged in the spec; the TRANSPORT
+ receive mechanism (this) is settled per Ben's Gate-2 decision: "the relay
adapter handles receiving these events over the WS."
Tests (tests/gateway/relay/test_relay_passthrough.py): byte-preservation
round-trip (+ malformed-body tolerance), connect() wiring, application-command
and message-component interactions route through handle_message with correct
session source + scope capture, malformed/non-discord forwards dropped cleanly.
100 relay tests green. Pairs with the connector PR (gateway-gateway).
Authorization to message the agent is the gate, not the file extension.
Previously the inbound-attachment allowlist (SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES) was
opt-OUT on Discord (allow_any_attachment defaulted false) and had no bypass
at all on Telegram/Slack — so an .html (or any non-allowlisted type) was
dropped or hard-rejected before the agent saw it.
Now every authorized upload is cached and surfaced to the agent regardless
of type:
- base.cache_media_bytes(): unknown types cache as octet-stream (or the
caller-supplied MIME) instead of returning None — fixes the chokepoint
that Teams/Telegram-media route through.
- discord/telegram/slack adapters: removed the allowlist reject/skip; any
non-media attachment is typed DOCUMENT and cached. Known types keep their
precise MIME.
- Text inlining now gates on a shared _TEXT_INJECT_EXTENSIONS set (text +
code + config + markup) instead of a blind UTF-8 decode, so binary formats
(PDF/zip/docx) with ASCII headers are never inlined.
- gateway/run.py emits the path-pointing context note for every DOCUMENT,
including non text/application MIME types.
- discord.allow_any_attachment is now a documented no-op kept for config
back-compat.
Validation: 357 gateway tests pass; E2E confirms .html/.bin/custom types
cache, known types stay precise, PDFs are not inlined.
terminal.docker_extra_args passes flags verbatim to `docker run` (e.g.
--gpus=all, --shm-size=16g). It was wired into DEFAULT_CONFIG,
TERMINAL_CONFIG_ENV_MAP (so `hermes config set` bridged it),
terminal_tool._get_env_config (reads TERMINAL_DOCKER_EXTRA_ARGS), and
DockerEnvironment (applies extra_args) -- but it was MISSING from cli.py's
env_mappings and gateway/run.py's _terminal_env_map.
Consequence: a user who hand-edits config.yaml (rather than running
`hermes config set`) has docker_extra_args silently dropped on the CLI and
gateway/desktop startup paths, while docker_image / docker_volumes (which
ARE in those maps) bridge correctly -- producing the reported 'Hermes
partially reads the Docker config' symptom where --gpus=all and
--shm-size=16g never reach docker run.
This is the same bridge-coverage bug class that shipped before for
docker_run_as_host_user (cli + gateway) and docker_mount_cwd_to_workspace
(gateway). Fix by adding the key to both maps, plus a dedicated regression
pin in test_terminal_config_env_sync.py mirroring the existing
test_docker_*_is_bridged_everywhere guards.
Surface dangerous host/deployment posture at gateway startup so operators get
the 'you're exposed' signal the June 2026 MCP-config persistence campaign
victims never had. Warn-only — never blocks startup, never raises.
Checks (each independently fail-safe):
- Running as root (POSIX uid 0)
- SSH daemon with PasswordAuthentication enabled (incl. the 'yes' default)
- Running in a container with no persistent volume mount over HERMES_HOME
- Network-accessible API server with no API_SERVER_KEY
New module hermes_cli/security_audit_startup.py; invoked once per process from
start_gateway() right after setup_logging(). Cross-platform (root/SSH checks
no-op on Windows). Idea: @Cthulhu.
Remove the dashboard --insecure auth-bypass, add an MCP persistence guard +
IOC blocklist, and raise the API-server key entropy floor.
Driven by the June 2026 hermes-0day campaign (r/hermesagent, live 854.media
instance): scanners find exposed Hermes dashboards/API servers, drive the
root agent to plant a 'command: bash' MCP entry that appends an attacker SSH
key to authorized_keys, which cron + startup then re-execute every tick.
- dashboard: --insecure no longer disables the auth gate. should_require_auth
returns True for every non-loopback bind; a public bind ALWAYS requires an
auth provider (bundled password provider or OAuth). --insecure kept as a
warned no-op for backward compat. Fail-closed error now points at the
password provider, not at --insecure.
- mcp_security: validate_mcp_server_entry now also rejects shell payloads that
write to OS persistence surfaces (authorized_keys/.ssh/pam.d/sudoers/cron/
rc files) and hard-rejects a hermes-0day IOC blocklist (attacker SSH key +
source IPs) anywhere in command/args/env. Runs at save AND spawn time.
- api_server: raise network-bind API_SERVER_KEY entropy floor 8->16 chars;
warn when a network-accessible API server runs an unsandboxed local backend.
The PID-reuse guard (#43846) reads /proc/<pid>/stat field 22, which only
exists on Linux — on macOS/Windows it returned None and the guard silently
degraded to a bare liveness check (a no-op, safety-wise). Add a
psutil.create_time() fallback (psutil is a hard dep, cross-platform),
quantized to centiseconds for stable equality, so the recycled-PID guard
actually protects macOS/Windows too. /proc always wins first on Linux and
always misses on macOS/Windows, so the two sources never mix on one host and
same-source equality is all the guard needs.
For adapter plugins, ``PlatformEntry.check_fn`` doubles as a lazy installer:
calling it pip-installs the platform SDK as a side effect (see e.g.
``plugins/platforms/discord/adapter.py::check_discord_requirements``). The
enablement sweep in ``_apply_env_overrides`` called ``check_fn`` for every
registered plugin platform unconditionally, so a single
``load_gateway_config()`` — which the desktop/dashboard readiness probe
``GET /api/status`` awaits synchronously — pip-installed Discord, Telegram,
Slack, Feishu and Dingtalk even when the user configured none of them
(``platforms: none``). On a slow or restricted network the installs ran long
enough to block the event loop past the desktop's readiness timeouts, so the
app timed out, killed and re-spawned the backend, and boot-looped (stuck at
94%).
Consult the cheap ``is_connected`` credential check FIRST and only run the
install-triggering ``check_fn`` for platforms that are already enabled or
actually configured. Auto-enable-by-credentials is unchanged: a platform with
its token set still gets its SDK installed and enabled.
Follow-up to the salvaged #9560 fix:
- Replace the _TRAVERSAL_RE regex with an explicit _is_path_unsafe() helper
(drops the now-unused `import re`); catches a path separator ANYWHERE,
not just leading, so a non-leading Windows backslash can't slip through.
- Switch the per-entry skip in _ensure_loaded_locked from print() to
logger.warning to match the module's logging conventions.
- Add AUTHOR_MAP entry for the contributor.
- Add regression tests for the non-leading-separator case.
Extends the CWE-22 path traversal guard to cover Windows absolute paths
of the form C:/... and D:\... — previously only leading / and \ were
checked, which missed drive-letter prefixes. Replaces the inline
startswith check with a compiled module-level regex (_TRAVERSAL_RE) that
covers all three attack patterns: .., leading /\, and leading X: drives.
Adds two regression tests for C:/windows/system32 and D:\\path\\to\\file.

When a streamed Telegram reply finalizes, the stream consumer could take
the fresh-final path (send a new sendRichMessage + best-effort delete the
preview) purely because the time-based _should_send_fresh_final()
threshold elapsed — even though Telegram's prefers_fresh_final_streaming
returns False. The fresh Rich Message then overlapped the legacy
MarkdownV2 preview already on screen, leaving both visible (the #47048
table + bullet double-render).
Honor the adapter's decision: when prefers_fresh_final_streaming exists
on the adapter (checked on the class + instance __dict__ so MagicMock
auto-attrs don't false-positive) and declines, the time threshold no
longer overrides it. Adapters without the hook keep the time-based
fresh-final for backward compat.
Fixes#47048
When a /model switch resolves a valid model but the in-place agent swap
fails mid-conversation (expired key, unreachable base_url), the agent
rolls itself back to the old working model+client and re-raises. The
callers caught that re-raise, logged a warning, then committed the broken
switch anyway: wrote the failed model to the session DB, set
_session_model_overrides to the broken model/provider/key, and (gateway
direct path) evicted the working cached agent. The next message then
rebuilt a dead agent from the broken override -> permanently unusable
conversation (#50163).
Fix the whole caller class so a failed swap aborts the commit entirely:
- gateway/slash_commands.py (picker + direct /model paths): on swap
failure, early-return an error message; skip DB persist, session
override, cache eviction, and config write.
- cli.py (both /model handlers): snapshot CLI-level credential/runtime
fields before mutating, restore them on swap failure, and abort the
note + success print.
- tui_gateway/server.py: wrap the previously-unguarded swap; on failure
raise a clean error and skip worker restart, runtime persist, switch
marker, session model_override, and config persist.
The no-cached-agent path (apply-on-next-session) is unaffected.
Adds a gateway regression test that fails on the pre-fix behavior.
Baileys' jidDecode crashes ("Cannot destructure property 'user' of
jidDecode(...) as it is undefined") when handed a bare phone number, so
sending a WhatsApp message to +50766715226 / 50766715226 returned HTTP
500 and never delivered (#8637).
Add to_whatsapp_jid() to gateway/whatsapp_identity.py — the outbound
inverse of normalize_whatsapp_identifier: it builds the JID a send must
use (bare phone -> <digits>@s.whatsapp.net) and passes through already
qualified JIDs (@g.us, @lid, status@broadcast, @newsletter) unchanged.
Wire it at every outbound bridge call site in the WhatsApp adapter
(send, edit, media, typing, get_chat_info, and the standalone cron /
send_message sender).

In Telegram streaming, the typing indicator persisted through the slow
final rich-text/MarkdownV2 finalize edit, so the '...typing' bubble
lingered for seconds after the last streamed token. Add a one-shot
on_before_finalize hook to GatewayStreamConsumer, fired once when the
stream transitions into its finalization path, and wire it on both
Telegram streaming call sites to call pause_typing_for_chat() before
the final edit. Cover hook ordering and once-only behavior in tests.
Fixes#49712
The gateway dispatcher captured kanban.auto_decompose ONCE at boot, so a user
who flipped it to false to STOP auto-decompose had no way to make that take
effect short of restarting the gateway. Reported (#49638): auto-decompose
created and launched tasks the user never intended (while they were still
typing the task description), and 'even Hermes Agent couldn't disable this
feature' — because the live config edit was silently ignored.
Auto-decompose is a safety toggle; turning it off must halt fan-out on the
next tick. The dispatcher now re-reads the flag (and auto_decompose_per_tick)
from config every tick via the extracted _resolve_auto_decompose_settings(),
which fails SAFE (disabled) on a config read error so a transient failure can
never re-enable a feature the user turned off.
Closes#49638.
Add a platform-neutral send-failure vocabulary so consumers can branch on a
typed category instead of substring-matching the raw provider message.
- base.py: SEND_ERROR_KINDS + classify_send_error() (too_long / bad_format /
forbidden / not_found / rate_limited / transient / unknown), and an optional
SendResult.error_kind field (defaults None — fully backward compatible).
- telegram.py: populate error_kind on send() failures; message_too_long keeps
its existing error token plus error_kind='too_long'.
Purely additive: no behavioral change to the existing degrade-and-deliver
paths (MarkdownV2->plain-text fallback, overflow split, retry classification
all untouched). 22 new tests + 210 adapter regression tests green.
* fix(api-server): stop silently promising async delivery on stateless HTTP path
terminal(notify_on_complete=True / watch_patterns) and delegate_task(background=True)
silently no-op'd on the API server / WebUI path (#10760): the watcher / detached
child registered, but every API-server route (OpenAI-spec /v1/chat/completions
and /v1/responses, plus the proprietary /v1/runs SSE stream) tears down its
channel when the turn ends, and APIServerAdapter.send() is a no-op stub. A
completion that fires after the response closed had nowhere to go — from the
agent side, indistinguishable from a hang.
There is no spec-compliant surface to wake the agent later on a stateless HTTP
client, so make the no-op honest instead of silent:
- Add a per-adapter capability flag supports_async_delivery (default True;
APIServerAdapter = False), propagated into a HERMES_SESSION_ASYNC_DELIVERY
contextvar via async_delivery_supported(). Toggle on the adapter, not a
hardcoded platform string — a future stateless adapter is correct-by-default.
- terminal: when delivery is unsupported, skip watcher registration, force
notify_on_complete off, and return a notify_unsupported note telling the
agent to process(action='poll').
- delegate_task: when delivery is unsupported, fall back to SYNCHRONOUS
execution (work runs and returns in the same response) with a note, instead
of handing out a handle that never resolves.
CLI (in-process completion_queue) and the real gateway platforms are unchanged.
Fixes#10760
* refactor(api-server): route session binding through a single no-delivery chokepoint
Add APIServerAdapter._bind_api_server_session() and route both agent-entry
paths (_run_agent for /v1/chat/completions + /v1/responses, and the /v1/runs
_run_sync path) through it. The helper hardwires platform="api_server" and
async_delivery=False with no async_delivery parameter to pass, so a future
route added to the API server physically cannot reintroduce the silent
no-op (#10760) by forgetting to mark the channel as non-delivering.
The binding stays request-scoped (cleared per turn), so a session resumed
later on a delivering interface (CLI / gateway platform) re-binds fresh and
is NOT blocked — the no-delivery decision tracks the interface handling the
current turn, never the session.
A turn forcibly interrupted by the drain-timeout escalation never reaches
turn_finalizer.finalize_turn (the only place that flushes the turn to
state.db). Its in-flight tool rounds live only in the in-memory
_session_messages, so the immediate pre-restart turn was silently dropped
from load_transcript() on resume.
_finalize_shutdown_agents now flushes _session_messages to the SQLite
session store before teardown. The flush is idempotent (identity-tracked
in _flush_messages_to_session_db), so agents that finished gracefully
re-flush nothing. The resume_pending / fresh-tool-tail branches in
_handle_message_with_agent already expect a transcript whose tail may be a
pending tool result.
Fixes#13121.
Inbound image/audio/video payloads were buffered fully into process memory
before being written to the cache, with no size limit. A large upload
(Discord Nitro allows 500 MB) or a remote media URL in an inbound message
pointing at a huge file could spike RAM and OOM-kill the gateway.
Enforce a configurable cap in the shared cache helpers (gateway/platforms/
base.py) so the protection holds across every platform adapter, not one:
- cache_image/audio/video_from_bytes reject oversized payloads before writing
(video was the gap in the original report — now covered).
- cache_image/audio_from_url stream the body, rejecting on an oversized
Content-Length header and re-checking the running total per chunk so an
absent/lying header can't smuggle an unbounded body past the cap.
- Discord's _read_attachment_bytes checks att.size up front, so an oversized
attachment is rejected before any bytes are pulled into memory.
Configurable via gateway.max_inbound_media_bytes in config.yaml (default
128 MiB; 0 disables). No new env var — non-secret config lives in config.yaml.
Salvaged and extended from @sgaofen's PR #13341 (the original report and the
shared-helper approach). Reapplied onto current main (Discord adapter has
since moved to plugins/platforms/discord/), the configurable knob moved from
an env var to config.yaml, and the video cache helper added.

Funnel session finalization through AIAgent.close() — the single terminal
path every agent (CLI, gateway, subagent, cron) funnels through — so finished
agents stop leaving rows with ended_at IS NULL. The biggest leak source was
delegate_task subagent + background-review forks whose close() never ended
their row.
end_session() is first-reason-wins and no-ops on an already-ended row, so a
'compression'/'cron_complete'/'cli_close' reason set by an earlier terminal
path is never clobbered. /resume already calls reopen_session(), so
finalizing-on-close does not break resumability.
Temporary helper agents that rotate/share the session forward (manual
compression, gateway session-hygiene) opt out via _end_session_on_close=False.
Also stop the long-running gateway heartbeat once the executor is done or the
session slot is rebound to a different agent, preventing a stale
'running: delegate_task' bubble from outliving its run.
Closes#12029.
The gateway pre-compression hygiene valve force-compressed any session
crossing 400 messages regardless of token usage. On large-context (1M+)
models doing many short, message-dense turns, a healthy session at ~16%
token usage could hit 400 messages and get force-compressed — and the
compression summary's stale Active Task could then bleed into the next
turn.
The valve's actual purpose is to break a death spiral: when API calls
keep disconnecting on an oversized session, no token-usage data arrives,
the token threshold never fires, and the transcript grows unbounded.
It's a count-based floor for that pathological case only. 400 was tuned
for ~200K-context models and is far too low for modern large-context
sessions. Raise the default to 5000 — still well clear of any death
spiral, but no longer firing on legitimate long conversations.
The value remains fully configurable via compression.hygiene_hard_message_limit.
The OpenAI-compatible API server only enforced a hardcoded cap of 10
concurrent runs on /v1/runs, leaving /v1/chat/completions and
/v1/responses unbounded — a request flood could exhaust CPU, memory,
and upstream LLM quota (#7483).
- Add gateway.api_server.max_concurrent_runs (config.yaml, default 10,
0 disables). No env var.
- Shared concurrency gate across all three agent-serving endpoints,
counting both the chat/responses in-flight counter and the /v1/runs
stream set. Returns OpenAI-style 429 + Retry-After when at the cap.
- Remove the dead hardcoded _MAX_CONCURRENT_RUNS class attribute.
Closes#7483.
Second cleanup pass (simplify-code review of the first follow-up):
- write_runtime_status now clamps active_agents via parse_active_agents
instead of an inline max(0, int(...)). Removes the duplicated clamp the
helper's docstring acknowledged AND closes a write-side ValueError gap
(a non-numeric active_agents previously raised; now degrades to 0).
- hermes_cli/gateway.py draining-status line routes its active-agents count
through parse_active_agents too — the third coercion site of the same
persisted field, now consistent and non-raising with the two HTTP surfaces.
- web_server.py /api/status: the drain-timeout resolver fallback now catches
ImportError specifically and falls back to DEFAULT_GATEWAY_RESTART_DRAIN_TIMEOUT
(a real float) instead of a blanket 'except Exception -> None'. None would
have violated the surfaced field's int/float contract and stripped NAS's
poll-deadline hint silently.
- Dropped a redundant 'if runtime else 0' branch (parse_active_agents already
handles the empty/None case) and tightened the parse_active_agents docstring
to describe the actual single-contract role (write + both reads).
Follow-up cleanups on top of the busy/idle readout (PR #50103):
- web_server.py /api/status reused the single drain-timeout resolver
hermes_cli.gateway._get_restart_drain_timeout() (HERMES_RESTART_DRAIN_TIMEOUT
env -> agent.restart_drain_timeout config -> default) instead of inlining a
third hand-rolled copy of that precedence chain. Also fixes a subtle
divergence: the inline copy used os.environ.get() so a set-but-empty env var
was treated as a value rather than falling through to config; the shared
resolver .strip()s and falls through correctly.
- Added gateway.status.parse_active_agents() and routed BOTH HTTP surfaces
(/api/status and /health/detailed) through it, so the exposed active_agents
field is consistently clamped non-negative. Previously /api/status clamped
while /health/detailed exposed the raw file value, diverging on a corrupt
count.
- Added TestParseActiveAgents covering the shared coercion contract.
Give an external consumer (NAS) a trustworthy, always-reachable busy/idle
readout it can poll before a disruptive lifecycle action (restart,
migrate, stop, auto-update). The dashboard /api/status is the only HTTP
surface guaranteed up on a hosted agent regardless of which gateway
platforms are enabled, and it already reads gateway_state.json.
Add to /api/status (additive, non-breaking):
- active_agents — in-flight gateway-turn count (now refreshed
per-turn by the companion gateway-side commit)
- gateway_busy — running AND active_agents > 0
- gateway_drainable — running and live (a valid begin-drain target)
- restart_drain_timeout — resolved seconds, so the consumer can size its
poll deadline without out-of-band knowledge
(env HERMES_RESTART_DRAIN_TIMEOUT → config
agent.restart_drain_timeout → default)
The busy/drainable contract is defined once in gateway.status
(derive_gateway_busy / derive_gateway_drainable) and consumed by both
/api/status and /health/detailed so the two surfaces can never disagree.
Liveness keys off gateway_running (a live PID/health probe), NEVER
gateway_updated_at — a healthy idle gateway never advances that timestamp.
All derived fields degrade to safe falsy values when the gateway is down
or the status file is absent/corrupt (never a spurious "busy" that would
wedge the consumer). active_sessions (the 5-min DB recency heuristic the
SPA reads) is left exactly as-is — new signal, new fields.
Tests (behaviour contracts, not snapshots): the pure derivation contract
across every running/state/count/liveness combination; /api/status
integration for busy, idle-drainable, draining, down, stale-busy-file,
corrupt-count, and timeout surfacing; and /health/detailed parity.
The gateway only rewrote gateway_state.json on lifecycle transitions
(start/connect/drain/stop), never on turn start/end. Live-verified on a
hosted agent: a confirmed end-to-end turn ran while gateway_updated_at
stayed frozen at boot and active_agents was absent — so any active_agents
read from the file between transitions is stale. That makes it unusable
as a busy/idle signal for an external consumer (NAS deciding whether it's
safe to restart/migrate/auto-update an agent mid-turn).
Add _persist_active_agents(), called at every turn boundary:
- turn start: both running-agent sentinel-claim sites (normal inbound
message path + startup-resume path)
- turn end: the central _release_running_agent_state() choke point
(covers normal completion, /stop, /reset, sentinel cleanup,
stale-eviction — every path that ends a running turn)
It passes ONLY active_agents to write_runtime_status, leaving
gateway_state (and every other field) _UNSET so the read-merge-write
preserves the current lifecycle state. Passing gateway_state=None would
clobber it — hence a dedicated helper rather than reusing
_update_runtime_status. The write is the same cheap JSON write done on
lifecycle transitions today; best-effort (a failed status write never
disrupts a turn).
Behaviour-contract test: an active_agents-only write preserves both
running and draining gateway_state, and the count clamps non-negative.
Follow-up to the salvaged preflight-compression warning:
- Replace silent `except Exception: pass` at all 5 guard call sites
(cli.py x2, gateway/slash_commands.py x2, tui_gateway/server.py) with
`logger.debug(...)` so signature drift in the guard helper isn't hidden.
- tui_gateway/server.py: set the confirm dict's `warning` field to the
merged message (was bare expensive-model text) so it matches
`confirm_message` for any future consumer reading `warning`.
- Add trailing newlines to the two new files.
Adds hermes_cli/context_switch_guard.py mirroring the model_cost_guard
pattern. When a user switches models mid-session (Herm TUI picker, CLI,
or /model on Telegram/Discord), the warning surfaces on the existing
ModelSwitchResult.warning_message path used by the expensive-model
guard if the new model's compression threshold is below the current
session size.
Partial fix for #23767 — addresses only the 'user-facing guardrail
when switching from a high-context provider to a substantially
lower-context provider' slice. The other proposed fixes from that
issue (hard preflight token guard, metadata cache invalidation on
switch, compression safety invariant, oversized tool-output handling)
are out of scope for this PR.
After context compression, the agent re-sent an already-delivered
generated image on every subsequent turn (#46627). The auto-append
fallback rescans full history when the message list shrinks (compression-
safe path), deduping against _history_media_paths — but that set was built
by scanning ONLY MEDIA: text tags in tool results. image_generate returns
its path in a JSON payload field (host_image/image/agent_visible_image),
never a MEDIA: tag, so generated-image paths never entered the dedup set
and were re-emitted after the boundary.
Extract the history-path collection into _collect_history_media_paths(),
which now covers BOTH delivery shapes: MEDIA: text tags AND image_generate
JSON-payload paths (mirroring what _collect_auto_append_media_tags
extracts). The inline block in _handle_message is replaced with a call to
the helper.

Gateway Session Hygiene auto-compression destroyed the original transcript
when the throwaway hygiene agent couldn't rotate the session (#21301, P1).
The _hyg_agent is built WITHOUT a session_db, so _compress_context cannot
end-and-fork the session (its rotate block is gated on agent._session_db).
The session_id stays unchanged, and the rewrite_transcript() call ran
UNCONDITIONALLY — replacing the full original transcript with just the
head+summary list. Permanent data loss on every hygiene compaction.
Guard the rewrite behind 'rotated OR in-place' exactly like the /compress
path already does (#44794/#39704): only overwrite when a new session id
was minted or in-place compaction succeeded; otherwise preserve the
original transcript and log a warning. The token/count bookkeeping that
followed the rewrite is moved inside the guard, with no-change values in
the preserve branch.

When the agent is busy and the user sends multiple text follow-ups, the
interrupt-mode and steer-fallback path stored them via
merge_pending_message_event(merge_text=True), which newline-joins
consecutive TEXT messages into a SINGLE pending turn — collapsing two
separate user messages into one mashed-together turn and destroying the
message boundaries the user sees (#43066 sub-bug 2).
Route that storage through _queue_or_replace_pending_event (the same FIFO
infrastructure used by busy queue-mode and /queue) so each follow-up gets
its own next-turn slot in arrival order, while still preserving
photo-burst / album merge semantics for media. Pure queue-mode already
used FIFO; this brings the interrupt/steer-fallback path in line.
The sibling defect in #43066 (assistant messages lost after compaction)
was already fixed on main by the identity-tracking flush rewrite (#46053)
plus the pre-rotation flush (#47202), so this only addresses the
remaining busy-message-merge half.

In Docker the install tree (/opt/hermes) is read-only, so npm install for
the WhatsApp bridge fails with EACCES. Add resolve_whatsapp_bridge_dir() in
whatsapp_common.py: when the install dir is read-only, mirror the bridge
source into a writable HERMES_HOME location and use that. Both the
adapter and the 'hermes whatsapp' CLI resolve through the shared helper so
the install and runtime paths agree.
Fixes#49561
Async-delegation completions (delegate_task(background=true)) and
background-process completions (terminal notify_on_complete) re-enter the
originating session as internal MessageEvents. When the session was busy,
_handle_active_session_busy_message treated them like a user TEXT message and
the default busy_input_mode='interrupt' aborted the active turn (and sent a
'Interrupting current task' ack) — the opposite of the design invariant that a
completion surfaces as a new turn only when idle.
Short-circuit internal events to return False so the base adapter queues them
silently (it already excludes internal events from debounce), cascading them as
the next turn after the current one finishes.
Review (Codex + 3-agent parallel) found the first cut of in-place mode was
incomplete: it only updated the system prompt, so the persisted transcript
stayed 'full history + summary' and the next turn/resume reloaded the full
history and immediately re-compacted (a loop), and every downstream layer
that keyed off session-id rotation silently no-op'd. The session_id was
doing double duty as the 'compaction happened' signal. This wires the whole
path so removing rotation is actually complete:
Agent (agent/conversation_compression.py):
- In-place now DURABLY replaces the transcript: replace_messages(session_id,
compressed) on the same row (the canonical store the gateway reloads from),
not just update_system_prompt. Resume reloads the compacted set; no loop.
- Reset flush identity/cursor (_last_flushed_db_idx=0, _flushed_db_message_ids
cleared) so next-turn appends diff against the compacted transcript.
- Expose a rotation-independent signal: agent._last_compaction_in_place, and
in_place=True on the session:compress event.
- Fire the compaction-boundary hooks (context-engine on_session_start, memory
manager on_session_switch, reason='compression') in BOTH modes — in-place
passes the same id as parent so DAG/buffer state still checkpoints. Without
this, memory/context plugins miss every in-place compaction.
Gateway auto-compress (gateway/run.py):
- Read agent._last_compaction_in_place; set history_offset=0 on rotation OR
in-place (both return the compacted set, so slicing past the pre-compaction
length would drop everything). Carry compacted_in_place in the result dict.
- No extra rewrite needed: the agent shares the gateway's SessionDB, so its
replace_messages already updated the canonical store load_transcript reads.
Manual /compress (gateway/slash_commands.py):
- The throwaway /compress agent has no _session_db, so rewrite_transcript is
the durable write. Previously gated behind 'if rotated:' which treated
'id unchanged' as the #44794 data-loss failure case and SKIPPED the rewrite
— making /compress a silent no-op in in-place mode. Now rewrites on rotated
OR in_place; the data-loss guard still fires only for the genuine
no-rotation-AND-not-in-place failure.
Hygiene auto-compress already writes _compressed to the same id
unconditionally (its agent has no _session_db, can't rotate) — correct for
in-place, no change.
Tests (tests/run_agent/test_in_place_compaction.py):
- Assert the DURABLE transcript IS the compacted set after reload
(get_messages_as_conversation == compacted), message_count==2, flush
identity reset, and the rotation-independent signal set on in-place /
unset on rotation. Rotation regression guard unchanged.
Verified: 64 tests green across in-place + rotation/persistence/boundary/
concurrent/failure-sync/command/cli suites; E2E both modes (durable replace,
gateway offset=0, rotation preserves old transcript); ruff clean. Still
default-off.
Salvage of PR #41284 onto current main. Relocates the last 9 inline messaging
adapters (+ satellites: telegram_network, feishu_comment/_rules/meeting_invite,
wecom_crypto, wecom_callback) from gateway/platforms/ into self-contained
bundled plugins under plugins/platforms/<x>/, discovered via the platform
registry. Strips the per-platform core touchpoints from gateway/run.py,
gateway/config.py, hermes_cli/gateway.py, hermes_cli/setup.py, and
tools/send_message_tool.py.
Carries forward the migration fixes (explicit enabled:false honored,
get_connected_platforms forces discovery, plugin is_connected via
gateway.get_env_value, logs --component gateway matches plugins.platforms.*,
matrix hidden on Windows).
Additionally ports config keys main added since the PR base: the matrix
plugin's _apply_yaml_config now also covers allowed_users,
ignore_user_patterns, process_notices, and session_scope (the inline
gateway/config.py matrix block gained these in the 1340 commits the PR sat
open; they would otherwise have been silently dropped on deletion).
`_sent_message_timestamps` (the reply-to-own-message quote cache) used a
`set` evicted with `set.pop()`, which removes an ARBITRARY element — so once
more than the cap (500) outbound timestamps are tracked, a still-recent
timestamp could be dropped while older ones survive, missing a genuine
reply-to-own-message. Convert it to an OrderedDict with FIFO (oldest-first)
eviction, mirroring the recently-hardened echo ring (#31250). This closes the
same bug class on the sibling cache.
Adds a regression test asserting oldest-first eviction + MRU promotion.
Review follow-up on the salvaged self-mention strip (#31217): the original
only stripped the bot's rendered @<number>/@<uuid> self-mention inside the
`require_mention=true` branch, so groups with require_mention=false still
leaked it into the agent text. Hoist the strip to run for every group message
(fixing the whole bug class), and collapse the doubled space a mid-sentence
removal leaves while preserving intentional newlines.
Widen the env_float() guard from #48735 across the whole bug class: a
non-numeric value (e.g. a stale .env "HERMES_API_TIMEOUT=abc" or a typo'd
port) raised an unhandled ValueError and crashed adapter/agent init.
Converts 22 genuinely-unguarded first-party int/float(os.getenv()) sites to
the canonical utils.env_int / utils.env_float helpers (the established house
pattern), instead of duplicating per-module helpers or inline try/except:
- gateway/config.py: WECOM_CALLBACK_PORT, BLUEBUBBLES_WEBHOOK_PORT
- gateway/platforms/email.py: EMAIL_IMAP/SMTP_PORT, EMAIL_POLL_INTERVAL
- gateway/platforms/feishu.py: dedup cache + text/media batch settings
- gateway/platforms/wecom.py, discord/adapter.py: text batch delays
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py: media batch delay, TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_PORT
- gateway/platforms/whatsapp.py: WHATSAPP_NPM_INSTALL_TIMEOUT
- hermes_cli/auth.py: CODEX/XAI refresh timeouts
- agent/chat_completion_helpers.py: API/stream read/stale timeouts
- run_agent.py, agent/auxiliary_client.py: API + nous timeouts
Sites already guarded by try/except or local helpers are left untouched.
The HERMES_MAX_ITERATIONS sites are already guarded on main via
_current_max_iterations(), so they are not included.
Review follow-up on the salvaged AAC + markdown changes:
- Fix an inaccurate comment claiming the STT layer has a sniff-and-remux
fallback (verified: no such fallback exists; the ffmpeg-absent path caches
raw ADTS and STT may reject it).
- Type the _markdown_to_signal wrapper as tuple[str, list[str]] to match the
shared helper instead of a bare tuple.
- Replace the hardcoded /home/pi/... test fixture with a runtime-generated
ADTS AAC sample so the remux round-trip actually runs in CI (skips only
when ffmpeg is absent) instead of always-skipping.
Android Signal delivers voice notes as raw ADTS AAC frames, which
share the `0xFF 0xFx` sync word with MPEG-1/2 Layer 3 (MP3). The
`_guess_extension` byte-signature test in gateway/platforms/signal.py
was matching both, so ADTS AAC was being misclassified as MP3 — saved
to disk with the wrong extension and rejected by every major STT API
(Groq, OpenAI) because their server-side format sniffers inspect the
actual codec, not the file extension.
Two changes:
1. Tighten the MP3 vs ADTS disambiguator. ADTS packs `ID`,
`layer`, and `protection_absent` into bits 3-0 of byte 1, where
`ID=0` and `layer=00` for AAC. Real MP3 has `ID=1` and
`layer` in {01, 10, 11}. The mask `0xF6` against target `0xF0`
cleanly separates them.
2. Remux raw ADTS AAC to MP4 container at the cache step via
`ffmpeg -c:a copy`. Single demux/remux, no re-encode, no quality
loss, sub-100ms on a Pi 5. The cached file is a normal `.m4a`
that all major STT providers accept. ffmpeg is a transitive
dependency of many other Hermes features (TTS, video skills) so
this isn't a new install requirement; the remux degrades
gracefully to a no-op if ffmpeg is missing.
The new helper `_remux_aac_to_m4a` is unit-tested with a real
Android voice note from the audio cache that originally triggered
the bug, plus synthetic ADTS frames for the byte-level
disambiguator and garbage-input graceful failure.
Closes the gap that broke transcription for any Android Signal user
sending voice messages to Hermes.
Route Signal send paths through shared markdown formatting helpers and render markdown bullets consistently as Unicode bullets. Add coverage for Signal formatting and send_message integration.
When a tool call itself restarts the gateway (docker restart, systemctl
restart, and similar), the process is terminated mid-call — before the
tool result is persisted and before the orderly drain rewind can run. The
transcript tail is left as an assistant(tool_calls) with no matching tool
answer. On resume the model re-issues the unanswered call, taking the
gateway down again — an infinite loop (#49201).
Source fix: _build_gateway_agent_history now strips a trailing
assistant(tool_calls) block that has no tool answers
(_strip_dangling_tool_call_tail), so there is nothing for the model to
re-execute. This complements _strip_interrupted_tool_tails, which only
handles the case where a tool result row exists with an interrupt marker.
Cognitive backstop: the resume-pending system note now states that any
restart command in the history already ran and must not be re-executed or
verified, and the empty-message auto-resume startup turn reports recovery
and asks for instructions instead of the nonsensical "address the user's
NEW message" (there is no new message on that turn).
Reimplements the intent of #49243 by @JoaoMarcos44 at the replay layer.
Fixes#49201
#49066 made /model text and the CLI picker persist to config.yaml by
default, but the gateway (Telegram/Discord/Matrix) inline-keyboard picker
callback stayed session-only. Mirror the text path's persist block so a
tapped model survives across launches like a typed one.
Behavior-preserving cleanups on the managed-node resolver:
- Hoist _candidate_node_command_names() out of the inner dir loop in
find_hermes_node_executable (computed once, not per directory).
- Drop redundant os.environ.copy() at the two with_hermes_node_path(
os.environ.copy()) sites \u2014 the helper already copies os.environ when
called with no argument (verified env-equivalent).
- Add reciprocal keep-in-sync comments between iter_hermes_node_dirs()
(hermes_constants.py) and hermesManagedNodePathEntries() (electron
main.cjs), which mirror the same platform-ordering rule across the
Python/Node boundary.
Auto-generated session titles already rename the Telegram forum topic via
the title_callback path, but the /title command only wrote the session
title to the database. On a Telegram topic lane the visible topic kept its
auto-assigned name, so a user who ran /title to override it saw no change.
Propagate the user-chosen title to the topic by calling the existing
_schedule_telegram_topic_title_rename helper on a successful /title set. It
already no-ops off Telegram topic lanes and when auto-rename is disabled.
Third review pass (Hermes subagent) declared convergence: no BLOCKING, the
round-2 generation-aware publish / context-engine staging / CLI reload / ACP
routing all verified correct by hand and by test.
- agent_init: capture _tool_snapshot_generation immediately before the tool
snapshot (was ~425 lines earlier); removes a harmless skew window so the
recorded generation always matches the snapshot it describes.
- gateway/run.py _execute_mcp_reload: keep preserving each cached agent's
build-time enabled_toolsets EXACTLY (do NOT merge newly-connected servers like
CLI/TUI do) and document WHY — gateway sessions can be deliberately locked
down, and test_reload_mcp_preserves_per_agent_toolset_overrides asserts this.
A reviewer suggested "parity" here; it would have violated that contract.
MCP servers that connect after the agent's one-time tool snapshot were
invisible for the whole session. Two root causes, fixed together:
1. The startup discovery wait was a flat 0.75s. HTTP/OAuth servers
commonly take 2-6s on a cold connect, so they missed the window and
their tools never entered the agent's snapshot. `thread.join(timeout)`
already returns the instant discovery completes, so raising the bound
costs ~0s for the common case (no MCP / fast servers) and only ever
blocks for a genuinely-pending server, capped so a dead server can't
freeze startup. The bound is now configurable via
`mcp_discovery_timeout` (config.yaml, default 5.0s).
2. Three call sites duplicated the agent tool-snapshot rebuild (the TUI
`reload.mcp` RPC, the gateway reload, and the TUI late-binding refresh
thread), and the late-refresh detected changes by tool COUNT — missing
an equal-size add/remove swap. Consolidated into one shared
`tools.mcp_tool.refresh_agent_mcp_tools(agent)` helper that diffs by
tool NAME, mutates the agent under a lock (thread-safe), and respects
the agent's own enabled/disabled toolsets.
The late-binding refresh keeps its pre-first-turn cache-safety guard:
it never rebuilds the tool list once a turn has started, so the cached
prompt prefix is never invalidated mid-conversation.
Tests: new tests/tools/test_refresh_agent_mcp_tools.py covers the
name-based diff, in-place mutation, agent-scoped filtering, thread
safety, and the config-driven discovery bound (incl. instant-return
when nothing is pending). 75 passed across the touched areas.
Sets the Telegram bot's short description (the line under its name) to
"Online" on gateway connect and "Offline" on clean disconnect, gated
behind extra.status_indicator (off by default).
Telegram bots have no presence/online dot — that's a user-account
feature the Bot API doesn't expose for bots. The short description is
the closest available surface, so this gives users a way to tell whether
the gateway is up from the bot's profile.
- New extra.status_indicator flag (+ status_online/status_offline text
overrides), read in __init__ via config.extra — no config-schema change.
- _set_status_indicator() helper: best-effort, swallows API errors so it
never blocks connect/disconnect; truncates to Telegram's 120-char cap.
- Wired Online after _mark_connected(), Offline at top of disconnect()
while the bot HTTP client is still alive.
- 9 unit tests + Telegram docs section.

Manual verification surfaced a second bypass class beyond the standalone
config loaders: several code paths bridge config.yaml values into os.environ
(HERMES_TIMEZONE, HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS, HERMES_MAX_ITERATIONS, TERMINAL_*,
network.force_ipv4, ...) by reading the raw user YAML, so the env the whole
process reads carried the USER's value even when an administrator pinned it —
e.g. a managed timezone was overridden because gateway/run.py wrote the user's
timezone into HERMES_TIMEZONE, and _resolve_timezone_name() checks the env var
first.
Wired the shared apply_managed_overlay() into every config→env bridge:
- gateway/run.py module-level startup bridge (timezone, redact_secrets,
max_turns, terminal, display, gateway.strict, ...)
- gateway/run.py _reload_runtime_env_preserving_config_authority (the per-turn
re-bridge that keeps config authoritative over reloaded .env — must keep
MANAGED authoritative on every turn, not just startup)
- hermes_cli/main.py early security.redact_secrets / network.force_ipv4 bridge
(runs before load_config is usable, at import time)
- hermes_cli/send_cmd.py top-level scalar config→env bridge
Verified end-to-end against a writable managed dir (12/12 checks incl. timezone,
logging, model, skin, gateway settings, write-guard) and in a clean process the
gateway per-turn bridge writes HERMES_TIMEZONE=<managed>. Adds an
order-independent regression test for the bridge overlay.
The skin bug was one instance of a class: several subsystems build their
config dict directly from config.yaml instead of routing through
hermes_cli.config.load_config (which carries the managed merge), so they
silently ignored administrator-pinned values. Audited every config.yaml
reader and fixed the behavioral-read bypasses:
- gateway/config.py load_gateway_config (messaging gateway: session_reset,
quick_commands, stt, model, ...)
- gateway/run.py _load_gateway_config (its read_raw_config fast path also
skipped the merge — read_raw_config returns raw user YAML)
- tui_gateway/server.py _load_cfg (new TUI + desktop backend: skin,
reasoning_effort, service_tier, provider_routing)
- cron/scheduler.py (scheduled-job model/reasoning/toolsets/provider_routing)
- hermes_logging.py (logging.level/max_size_mb/backup_count)
- hermes_time.py (timezone)
- hermes_cli/doctor.py (memory-provider diagnostic reads effective config)
All route through a new shared managed_scope.apply_managed_overlay() helper
that mirrors _load_config_impl (env-only expansion so a user ${VAR} can't
shadow a managed literal, root-model-string normalization, leaf-merge) and is
fail-open. cli.py's earlier inline fix is refactored onto the same helper.
Write-back paths (slash_commands, telegram/yuanbao dm_topics, profile
distribution) are deliberately left reading raw user YAML — overlaying managed
values there would persist them into the user file. The dashboard
(web_server.py) already routes through load_config and needed no change.
TUI loader caches the RAW config so _save_cfg never writes managed values to
disk. Adds test_managed_scope_overlay.py (helper) and
test_managed_scope_loaders.py (per-surface integration); mutation-checked.
ruff (unspecified-encoding) and the Windows-footgun checker both flag
open() in text mode without encoture=. Keep text mode (the Windows lock
path in _try_acquire_file_lock writes a str newline) and pass
encoding='utf-8'.
Two robustness gaps from community review (#44919):
1. Windows dead-path: replaced bespoke fcntl.flock with gateway.status
_try_acquire_file_lock / _release_file_lock — already cross-platform
(msvcrt on Windows, fcntl on POSIX). Added _release_singleton_lock
helper.
2. Lock fd never released: stored handle is now released explicitly in
both exit paths — CancelledError handler and normal while-loop exit.
Allows in-process stop/restart (tests, embedded use).
Also tightened docstrings — 'corrupt the SQLite DBs' is now specific
(wal_autocheckpoint=0 + concurrent manual WAL checkpoints can corrupt
index pages), matching the module's own concurrency claims.
The gateway's embedded dispatcher has no guard against more than one dispatcher
running concurrently. dispatch_in_gateway defaults to true, so a second gateway
for the same profile (a restart race where the old process is slow to exit) — or
any deployment that runs multiple profile gateways with the default — starts a
second dispatcher loop. As #41448 describes, concurrent dispatchers each run
release_stale_claims() against the same boards, double reclaim frequency, and
re-dispatch slow workers before they finish. In practice they also corrupt the
shared kanban SQLite DBs under concurrent write load.
Add _acquire_singleton_lock(): an exclusive, non-blocking fcntl.flock at the
machine-global kanban root (kanban_home()/kanban/.dispatcher.lock — the board is
shared across profiles by design, so this serialises every gateway, not just one
profile). The first gateway to start its dispatcher holds the lock for its
process lifetime; any other gateway finds it contended, logs, and skips
dispatching while still running for messaging. Falls back to config-only control
on non-POSIX or filesystems without flock.
This is more robust than a per-profile guard because the documented model is
"one dispatcher sweeps all boards" — the contention is across profiles, not just
within one. Closes#41448.
Test: lock is exclusive (held, then contended while held, then held again after
release).
- _guard_named_profile_under_multiplexer: when the default gateway is running
with gateway.multiplex_profiles=on, a named-profile 'hermes gateway run' hard
-errors (pointing at the multiplexer) instead of double-binding that
profile's platforms. Inert unless all hold: this invocation is a named
profile, a default-profile gateway is alive, and its config has multiplexing
on. --force overrides. Wired into run_gateway's guard chain.
- write_runtime_status gains served_profiles: the secondary-adapter startup
records [active] + multiplexed profiles into runtime_status.json so
'hermes status' can show per-profile coverage without a second probe. Absent
for single-profile gateways.
Tests: served_profiles round-trips and is absent by default; guard is inert for
the default profile / under --force / when no default gateway is running.
Bring up adapters for every profile the gateway serves, not just the active
one. Keeps self.adapters as the default/active profile's map (the ~93 existing
self.adapters[...] sites are untouched) and adds secondary profiles under
self._profile_adapters[profile][platform].
- _start_secondary_profile_adapters loops profiles_to_serve(multiplex=True),
skips the active profile (handled by the primary startup loop), and for each
other profile loads its gateway config and creates+connects its enabled
adapters under that profile's _profile_runtime_scope (home + secret scope).
- Each secondary adapter gets _make_profile_message_handler(profile): stamps
source.profile (when unset) before delegating to the shared _handle_message,
so the agent turn and session key resolve to that profile.
- Same-platform credential-conflict detection: _adapter_credential_fingerprint
hashes the adapter's bot token (salted, truncated — never logs the token);
two profiles claiming the same (platform, token) refuse the duplicate with a
clear error naming both, since one token can't be polled twice.
- Port-binding hard-error: a SECONDARY profile that enables a port-binding
platform (webhook, api_server, msgraph_webhook, feishu, wecom_callback,
bluebubbles, sms) is a config error and aborts startup via MultiplexConfigError
— the default profile owns the single shared HTTP listener and serves every
profile through the /p/<profile>/ prefix, so a second bind can only collide.
Distinct from a transient connect failure (which logs + stays alive to retry):
a config error writes gateway_state=startup_failed and exits cleanly with an
actionable message (names the profile, the platform, and the fix). There is no
valid reason to bind a second port once you've opted into a multiplexer.
- Shutdown tears down secondary adapters alongside the primary ones.
- Defensive getattr guards keep partial-construction unit tests (stop(),
_run_agent on bare instances) working.
No-op when multiplex_profiles is off (self._profile_adapters stays empty).
Tests: fingerprint stability/log-safety/distinctness, profile message-handler
stamping (and not overriding an already-stamped source), port-binding hard-error
raises + names the profile/platform, non-binding platform is not rejected, and
the guard set covers every TCP-binding adapter.
Serve webhook inbound for multiple profiles off the one shared listener via a
URL prefix, with no second port bound.
- SessionSource gains a 'profile' field (round-trips through to_dict/from_dict;
omitted when unset so existing serialization is unchanged). It carries which
profile an inbound message was routed to.
- WebhookAdapter registers /p/{profile}/webhooks/{route_name} alongside the
existing /webhooks/{route_name}. _resolve_request_profile validates the
prefix against profiles_to_serve(): None when absent or multiplexing is off
(ignored, handled as default — no spurious 404), the profile name when valid,
_PROFILE_REJECTED (→ 404) when the profile isn't served. The resolved profile
is stamped onto the SessionSource.
- session-key namespacing and the per-turn home/credential scope now prefer
source.profile: SessionStore._resolve_profile_for_key(source),
_session_key_for_source fallback, and _resolve_profile_home_for_source all
honor it (→ the agent turn resolves that profile's config/skills/credentials
via the Phase 2 _profile_runtime_scope).
Constraint: routing inbound needs no per-profile platform credential, but the
agent still needs the routed profile's provider key — delivered by Phase 2's
secret scope. api_server (OpenAI-compatible surface) profile routing is a
focused follow-on; its source-construction path differs from webhook's.
Tests: SessionSource.profile round-trip + namespace drive; _resolve_request_
profile accept/reject/ignore matrix.
The credential gate. When multiplexing is active, a profile's secrets resolve
from a context-local scope, never the process-global os.environ (which in a
multiplexer may hold another profile's keys, and is inherited by every
subprocess spawned with env=dict(os.environ)).
- agent/secret_scope.py: get_secret() backed by a secret-scope contextvar.
FAIL-CLOSED: when multiplex is active and no scope is installed, an unscoped
read RAISES UnscopedSecretError instead of falling back to os.environ — a
missed/new call site crashes loudly at that line rather than leaking a
cross-profile value. Genuinely-global vars (HERMES_*, PATH, kanban paths,
…) keep reading os.environ via an allowlist. load_env_file/build_profile_
secret_scope parse a profile .env into an isolated dict WITHOUT mutating
os.environ. Off by default => transparent os.getenv behavior.
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py: all credential/provider/base-url reads go
through _getenv -> get_secret.
- agent/credential_pool.py: env fallbacks route through get_secret (the
~/.hermes/.env-first preference is preserved and already profile-correct via
the home override).
- tools/mcp_tool.py: MCP config interpolation resolves through
get_secret, so a server's picks up the routed profile's value.
- gateway/run.py: set_multiplex_active() at GatewayRunner init; per-turn .env
reload is a no-op for credentials in multiplex mode (secrets come from the
scope, not global env); _profile_runtime_scope context manager combines the
HERMES_HOME override + secret scope; _run_agent wraps _run_agent_inner in
that scope (resolved via _resolve_profile_home_for_source) when multiplexing.
Propagates into the agent worker thread for free via the existing
copy_context() in _run_in_executor_with_context.
Tests: 13 unit (fail-closed, scope isolation, global allowlist, .env parsing
without environ mutation) + 7 E2E (runtime_provider + MCP interpolation prove
two profiles isolated, unscoped read raises, globals still read environ).
Foundations for serving multiple profiles from one gateway process, inert
when off:
- gateway.multiplex_profiles config flag (default false), round-trips through
GatewayConfig and load_gateway_config (top-level + nested gateway.* form).
- hermes_cli.profiles.profiles_to_serve(multiplex): the single chokepoint for
which (profile, HERMES_HOME) pairs the gateway serves. Lightweight dir scan;
active-profile-only when off, default + all named profiles when on.
- build_session_key gains a profile= namespace slot. Default/None reuse the
historical 'agent:main:...' literal BYTE-IDENTICALLY (no session migration,
positional parsers unaffected); a named profile becomes 'agent:<profile>:...'
so two profiles on the same platform/chat never collide.
- SessionStore._resolve_profile_for_key + _session_key_for_source fallback
resolve the namespace from the flag (legacy when off, active profile when on).
Tests: byte-identical-when-off (parametrized), namespace isolation, positional
layout preserved, config round-trip, profiles_to_serve enumeration.
The salvaged non_conversational marking made the home-channel startup
no-metadata branch always pass metadata= explicitly; for non-Discord
platforms _non_conversational_metadata returns None, so Telegram/etc.
went from adapter.send(chat_id, message) to adapter.send(..., metadata=None).
Behaviorally identical but broke test_restart_notification's exact
assert_called_once_with. Only attach metadata when the marker applies
(Discord), restoring the original call shape elsewhere.
Discord channel-history backfill partitions on Hermes' last self-authored
message. Asynchronous, non-conversational status sends (self-improvement
review bubbles, heartbeats, background-process notifications, update status,
gateway restart/online notices) land as ordinary bot messages, so a delayed
status bump becomes the history boundary and swallows real messages that
arrived after Hermes' actual reply.
Mark these sends at the source via metadata["non_conversational"] (Discord
only; other platforms' metadata is unchanged). The adapter no longer advances
the history-boundary cache for marked sends and persists their IDs to a
sidecar JSON so the cold-start scan can skip them by ID after a restart. A
narrow regex recognizer remains only as an upgrade bridge for status bumps
emitted by an older gateway that pre-dates the marking.
A plain /model <name> switch only lasted for the current session — every
new session reverted to the previously-configured model, so users had to
re-switch every time (e.g. glm-5.1 -> glm-5.2 on every launch).
Persist-by-default is now the behavior across all three /model surfaces
(CLI, gateway, TUI/dashboard), gated by a new config key
model.persist_switch_by_default (default true):
/model <name> switch model (persists to config.yaml)
/model <name> --session switch for this session only
/model <name> --global switch and persist (explicit, unchanged)
The effective persistence is resolved once via resolve_persist_behavior()
in hermes_cli/model_switch.py so --session opts out, --global opts in,
and the config-gated default applies otherwise. --global remains a valid
explicit no-op alias for the new default.
Address correctness gaps found in pre-PR review of the strict matcher:
- Profile selectors can appear on EITHER side of the `gateway` token
(`_apply_profile_override` strips `--profile`/`-p` from anywhere in argv
before argparse), so `hermes gateway --profile work run` and
`python -m hermes_cli.main gateway -p work run` are valid launches the
previous matcher wrongly rejected. Strip `--profile`/`-p`/`--profile=`/`-p=`
from anywhere before locating the subcommand.
- A profile literally named `gateway` (`hermes -p gateway gateway run`) made
the old token scan stop on the profile value; stripping the selector+value
first fixes it.
- Tokenize quote-aware with `shlex` so quoted Windows paths containing spaces
(`"C:\Program Files\Hermes\hermes-gateway.exe"`) are no longer split mid-path
and the dedicated-entrypoint match survives.
Without these, the matcher could MISS a real running gateway -> the opposite
failure (restart/status reporting "down" when up). Adds regression tests for
all three shapes.

`hermes gateway restart` on Windows could take the gateway offline with no
replacement. restart() was stop() -> sleep(1.0) -> start(), but the graceful
drain can run up to ~180s while the detached pythonw process stays alive. The
1s sleep let start() run against the still-draining old process; its
"already running" guard then no-opped, and when the old process finally exited
nothing relaunched it.
Two root causes, both fixed:
1. Loose PID detection. `_scan_gateway_pids` and the gateway.status helpers
used substring matches ("... gateway" in cmdline) for lifecycle decisions,
so they false-matched `gateway status`/`dashboard` siblings and unrelated
processes like `python -m tui_gateway`, plus stale gateway.pid records.
Add a shared strict matcher `looks_like_gateway_command_line()` in
gateway/status.py that requires the real `gateway run` subcommand (or the
dedicated entrypoints), and route `_looks_like_gateway_process`,
`_record_looks_like_gateway`, and `_scan_gateway_pids` through it.
2. restart() race. Wait until the gateway is authoritatively gone
(`get_running_pid()` + strict `_gateway_pids()`) before relaunch; force-kill
once if it lingers and raise rather than start a duplicate; verify the
relaunch produced a running gateway and raise loudly if not (no more
exit-0 silent outage).
Scoped to Windows; systemd/launchd restart paths are already drain-aware.
Adds tests/gateway/test_gateway_command_line_matcher.py.

When a gateway agent is reused from cache, it retains the max_iterations
from its initial creation. If config.yaml agent.max_turns or HERMES_MAX_ITERATIONS
changed between turns, the cached agent's budget becomes stale.
Before reusing a cached agent, refresh agent.max_iterations from the
freshly-resolved value (read from env/config at line 14585).
Fixes partial issue from PR #48127: handles fresh agent creation + cached agent reuse.
* fix(relay): enable RELAY platform + normalize dial URL so hosted gateways actually connect
Three bugs blocked a self-provisioned hosted gateway from ever establishing its
inbound relay WS (found while standing up the live staging end-to-end). Each
masked the next; all three are needed for inbound to work.
1. RELAY platform never enabled in config.platforms (gateway/config.py).
register_relay_adapter() puts the adapter in the platform_registry, but
start_gateway()'s connect loop iterates self.config.platforms — which never
contained Platform.RELAY. So the adapter was "registered" but never connected
(logs showed "relay adapter registered" then "No messaging platforms
enabled"). Fix: _apply_env_overrides now enables Platform.RELAY (mirroring
relay_url into extra for the connected-checker) when GATEWAY_RELAY_URL (env)
or gateway.relay_url (yaml) is set. Absent -> no RELAY entry (direct/
single-tenant gateways unaffected).
2. URL scheme not converted for the WS dial (gateway/relay/ws_transport.py).
The relay URL is configured once as the http(s):// base (used as-is for the
provision POST), but websockets.connect rejects http(s):// with "scheme isn't
ws or wss". Fix: _ws_dial_url converts https->wss / http->ws.
3. /relay path not appended (same helper). The connector mounts its
WebSocketServer at path "/relay" and returns HTTP 400 on an upgrade to any
other path. GATEWAY_RELAY_URL is the base (no /relay), so the dial hit "/"
-> 400. Fix: _ws_dial_url ensures the path ends in /relay. Idempotent — a URL
already carrying ws(s):// and/or /relay is unchanged, so provision's
_provision_url (which derives /relay/provision from either form) still works.
Why the cross-repo E2E missed #2/#3: the stub connector binds ws://host:port and
its websockets.serve accepts ANY path, so neither the scheme nor the /relay path
was exercised. Real connector needs both.
Verified live on staging hermes-agent-stg-automated-perception-5054: after the
fixes the gateway logs "Connecting to relay..." -> "✓ relay connected" ->
"Gateway running with 1 platform(s)" against
wss://gateway-gateway.staging-nousresearch.com/relay, stable.
Tests: added _ws_dial_url scheme+path+idempotency cases (test_ws_transport.py)
and RELAY-platform-enablement cases for env + yaml + absent (test_config.py).
Full gateway/relay + config suites green (191 passed).
Relay-adapter lane. EXPERIMENTAL.
* fix(relay): re-attach guild_id to outbound so connector egress resolves the tenant
The final bug in the hosted-relay round-trip. Inbound worked end to end (Discord
-> connector -> bus -> agent WS -> agent runs -> reply), but the reply's egress
was declined by the connector: "discord egress declined: target not routed to an
onboarded tenant".
Cause: the connector's routedEgressGuard resolves the owning tenant from the
OUTBOUND action's metadata.guild_id (Discord's routing discriminator). The
gateway's generic delivery path builds outbound metadata via
run.py _thread_metadata_for_source, which only carries thread_id (and returns
None entirely for a non-threaded message) — so guild_id never reached the
connector, tenant resolution failed, and the shared bot refused to post.
Fix (relay-adapter-local, no perturbation of the generic delivery path or other
platforms): RelayAdapter learns chat_id -> guild_id from each inbound event
(_capture_scope) and re-attaches it to the outbound action's metadata in send()
(_with_scope) when not already present. No-op for chats we never saw inbound
(e.g. DMs) and never overwrites an explicit guild_id.
Verified live on staging hermes-agent-stg-automated-perception-5054: an
@mention in #general now produces a visible bot reply — full multi-tenant relay
round-trip (real Discord -> shared connector bot -> tenant routing -> agent WS ->
reply egress -> Discord).
Tests: _capture_scope/_with_scope reattach, no-scope no-op, explicit-guild_id
preserved (test_relay_adapter.py). Full relay + config suites green (160 passed).
Relay-adapter lane. EXPERIMENTAL.
self_provision_if_managed() gated on is_managed(), but is_managed() means
"NixOS/package-manager-managed" (it keys on HERMES_MANAGED or a ~/.hermes/.managed
marker) — NOT "NAS-hosted". A NAS-provisioned Fly agent sets NEITHER, so the gate
was always False and relay self-provision SILENTLY no-oped on exactly the hosted
agents it was built for. Caught live: a staging agent with GATEWAY_RELAY_URL
correctly stamped logged "No messaging platforms enabled" and never dialed the
connector; HERMES_MANAGED was unset on the machine. The unit tests had mocked
is_managed()->True, so they passed while the real trigger never fired (mocked-
trigger blind spot).
Fix: drop the is_managed() gate and rename self_provision_if_managed ->
self_provision_relay. The real trigger is now "relay_url() set + no pinned secret
+ a resolvable NAS token", which is both NAS-independent and self-guarding:
- NAS-hosted agent: GATEWAY_RELAY_URL + no pinned secret + bootstrapped NAS
token -> self-provisions.
- Self-hosted + `hermes gateway enroll`: pinned GATEWAY_RELAY_SECRET -> skipped
(existing secret-present guard).
- Self-hosted, unenrolled, no NAS identity: resolve_nous_access_token() fails
-> graceful no-op (existing fail-soft path).
Security: unchanged trust model. The connector still derives tenant from the
validated NAS token; this only broadens WHEN the provision attempt fires, and
every broadened case is still guarded by token-resolution + pinned-secret-skip.
Tests: replaced the (wrong) "skips when not managed" test with a regression test
proving a NAS host where is_managed()==False STILL provisions; renamed all call
sites; added a "no NAS token -> non-fatal skip" test for the self-hosted branch.
88 relay tests pass.
Relay-adapter lane. EXPERIMENTAL.
The connector now delivers inbound (messages + interrupts) over the gateway's
OUTBOUND /relay WebSocket, not a signed HTTP POST to an inbound endpoint. The
gateway needs no inbound HTTP port — which is what makes hosted gateways (no
public IP) able to receive inbound at all.
- gateway/relay/adapter.py: connect() wires set_interrupt_inbound_handler(
self.on_interrupt) so connector->gateway interrupt_inbound frames bridge into
the existing per-session interrupt path (the inbound message handler was
already wired). Removed _maybe_start_inbound_receiver() + the _inbound_runner
lifecycle — there is no HTTP receiver anymore.
- gateway/relay/inbound_receiver.py: deleted (the signed-HTTP InboundDelivery
receiver).
- gateway/relay/__init__.py: removed relay_inbound_config() (dead with the
receiver gone). The delivery key is still set in-process by self-provision for
forward-compat but is no longer consumed for inbound.
- docs/relay-connector-contract.md: §3 rewritten — inbound is the WS back-channel
routed cross-instance via the connector's relay bus; §5 interrupt + §6 auth
table updated; the old signed-HTTP-POST + per-tenant-delivery-key-signing path
is documented as superseded. gatewayEndpoint noted as passthrough-plane only.
Tests: stub_connector grows set_interrupt_inbound_handler + push_interrupt;
new test_relay_interrupt case proves connect() wires BOTH inbound handlers and an
interrupt_inbound frame over the WS cancels the right session. Removed the
HTTP-receiver test; updated the crypto-shedding scan + self-provision delivery-key
assertion. 88 relay tests pass.
EXPERIMENTAL. Pairs with gateway-gateway (relay bus + WsGatewayDelivery) and the
NAS GATEWAY_RELAY_URL stamp. The cross-repo E2E (connector repo) proves the full
multi-instance path against this production adapter code.
The manual /compress handler called rewrite_transcript() unconditionally on
the session id returned by _compress_context(). When rotation does not occur
(e.g. _session_db unavailable, or the DB split raised), session_id is unchanged
and rewrite_transcript() DELETEs the original messages and replaces them with
only the compressed summary — permanent data loss (#44794, #39704).
Guard the rewrite on actual rotation: only overwrite when _compress_context
produced a new session id. Otherwise leave the original transcript intact and
log a warning.
Salvage follow-up to the cherry-picked feat/test commits:
- W1: the unpack/install update path in main.py printed the
'~ N user-modified (kept)' notice without the new
'hermes skills list-modified' hint that the git-pull path got.
Mirror the hint to both sites so the count is actionable
regardless of which update path runs.
- W2: 'hermes skills diff <name>' (bundled-vs-stock) now shares the
verb with the gateway write-approval 'diff <id>'. The gateway
handler's docstring + truncation message pointed users to
'/skills diff <id>' on the CLI, which now resolves a bundled skill
by that name instead. Point at the pending JSON file and note the
two diff commands are distinct.
- Add an invariant test asserting every 'user-modified (kept)' notice
in main.py carries the discovery hint (guards sibling drift).
The gateway half of relay Phase 3. On a MANAGED boot with relay configured and
no secret pinned, the runtime self-provisions its relay credentials IN-PROCESS:
resolve the agent's own Nous access token (resolve_nous_access_token) -> POST
the connector's /relay/provision asserting its own endpoint + route keys ->
set GATEWAY_RELAY_ID/SECRET/DELIVERY_KEY into os.environ so the immediately-
following register_relay_adapter() reads them and dials out authenticated.
No human, no enrollment token, no disk write — the creds live only in process
memory (save_env_value refuses under managed anyway, and keeping the secret off
any volume is the stronger posture). Stateless: process-env creds don't survive
a restart, so a managed container re-provisions every boot; the connector's
rotation window covers a still-connected prior instance. An explicitly-pinned
GATEWAY_RELAY_SECRET is respected (skip). Self-hosted is unchanged: humans keep
using `hermes gateway enroll`.
Endpoint provenance is gateway-asserted (GATEWAY_RELAY_ENDPOINT +
GATEWAY_RELAY_ROUTE_KEYS, env or gateway.relay_* config) — uniform code path
whether the operator sets it (self-hosted) or NAS stamps it (hosted, the only
case NAS knows the public URL). Both absent -> outbound-only provisioning
(credentials, no inbound routes). The connector scopes the asserted endpoint to
the verified tenant, so it stays within the security model.
- gateway/relay/__init__.py: relay_endpoint(), relay_route_keys(),
_provision_url(), _post_provision(), self_provision_if_managed() (never
raises — a provision failure logs and boots without relay auth).
- gateway/run.py: call self_provision_if_managed() immediately before
register_relay_adapter() in the startup path.
Tests: 12 unit (trigger logic, respect-pinned-secret, in-process env wiring,
endpoint+routes vs outbound-only, fail-soft on token/connector failure);
mutation-checked (drop is_managed guard / pinned-secret guard -> tests fail).
Cross-repo live E2E driver lands on the connector side (depends on this).
EXPERIMENTAL: relay auth scheme may change until >=2 Class-1 platforms validate.
Phase 4F (F.1 + F.2 + F.3, agent side). F.4 is the operator-run live smoke
(needs a NAS deployment); recorded in the PR, not code.
F.1 — on_jobs_changed wiring:
- cron/scheduler.py: _notify_provider_jobs_changed() — resolve the active
provider, call on_jobs_changed(), swallow errors. Lives in scheduler.py (not
jobs.py) so the store stays free of provider imports (no import cycle).
- Wired at the consumer surfaces AFTER a successful mutation: the cronjob model
tool (tools/cronjob_tools.py, create/update/remove/pause/resume) — which the
`hermes cron` CLI also routes through — and the REST handlers
(gateway/platforms/api_server.py, same five). Built-in's no-op default = zero
behavior change on the default path. Sleeping-agent direct jobs.json writes
(no tool/CLI/REST) are covered by reconcile-on-wake in start().
F.2 — config: cron.chronos.{portal_url,callback_url,expected_audience,
nas_jwks_url}. All non-secret; the agent holds no scheduler creds and the
outbound provision call reuses the existing Nous token (no token key). Additive
deep-merge key, no version literal.
F.3 — docs:
- docs/chronos-managed-cron-contract.md: authoritative agent↔NAS wire contract
(the three agent-cron endpoints + inbound /api/cron/fire + the 3-hop trust
model + at-most-once/re-arm semantics). This is what the NAS-side agent builds
against.
- cron-internals.md: "Managed cron (Chronos) for scale-to-zero" section.
- cli-commands.md: cron.provider accepts chronos + the cron.chronos.* keys.
- User docs name no scheduler vendor (QStash is a NAS-internal detail).
INVARIANT re-verified: zero qstash/upstash hits across plugins/cron, gateway,
hermes_cli, tools, website/docs (the one remaining repo hit is an unrelated
Context7 MCP comment in tools/mcp_tool.py).
Tests: test_jobs_changed_notify (5) — notify calls provider hook, swallows
errors, built-in harmless, tool create/remove notify. Full cron + chronos +
webhook + config + api_server_jobs suites green (504 in the cron+chronos+webhook
run).
Phase 4E (E.1 + E.2). The inbound side of Chronos: NAS POSTs the agent when a
one-shot fires; the agent verifies a NAS-minted JWT and runs the job.
E.1 — plugins/cron/chronos/verify.py:
- verify_nas_fire_token(token, expected_audience, jwks_or_key, issuer): verifies
signature against the NAS JWKS (RS/ES family; symmetric rejected), aud == this
agent, exp/nbf, iss, and purpose == "cron_fire" (so a general agent JWT can't
be replayed against the fire endpoint). Returns claims or None; never raises.
Crypto delegated to PyJWT[crypto] (already a declared dep) — no hand-rolled
JWT, no new dependency. No key configured → refuse (never unsigned-decode a
security boundary).
- get_fire_verifier(): pluggable indirection so the DQ-4 escape hatch
(direct per-job cron-key) can swap in with no handler change.
E.2 — gateway/platforms/api_server.py:
- POST /api/cron/fire (registered only when _CRON_AVAILABLE). Authenticated by
the NAS-JWT via get_fire_verifier() — NOT API_SERVER_KEY (NAS holds no API
key; this is the only inbound that triggers remote job execution, so it gets
its own purpose-scoped check). Verifier args come from cron.chronos.* config.
401 on bad/missing/forged token. 400 on missing job_id. On success: 202 +
fire_due runs in the background (so a long agent turn never trips NAS's HTTP
timeout); the store CAS claim inside fire_due de-dupes a scheduler retry.
Tests:
- test_chronos_verify (11): REAL RS256 signing — valid→claims, wrong-aud,
missing/wrong purpose, expired, wrong-iss, tampered-signature (attacker key),
no-key-refuse, empty-token, JWKS-URL key resolution, get_fire_verifier.
- test_cron_fire_webhook (5): valid→202+fire, invalid→401+no-fire, missing
token→401, missing job_id→400, and fire path does NOT require API_SERVER_KEY.
api_server regression suites (214) green.
E.3 (NAS endpoints) is a separate cross-repo PR; the wire contract lands next
(docs/chronos-managed-cron-contract.md).
Phase 3 — rebind both ticker call sites to resolve_cron_scheduler(). Default
(built-in) path is byte-identical; Phase 0 characterization tests + the full
gateway suite (6919) stay green.
Task 3.1: split gateway/run.py _start_cron_ticker into:
- _start_gateway_housekeeping() — the gateway-only chores (channel-dir
refresh, image/doc cache cleanup, paste sweep, curator poll), now on their
own loop/thread, independent of which cron provider is active.
- _start_cron_ticker() — kept as a DEPRECATED shim that runs only the
built-in InProcessCronScheduler().start(), preserving the symbol for
hermes_cli/debug.py and the Phase 0 characterization test.
Task 3.2: start_gateway() resolves the provider and runs provider.start() in
the 'cron-scheduler' thread, plus a second 'gateway-housekeeping' thread;
teardown sets the shared cron_stop, calls provider.stop(), joins both.
Task 3.3: desktop _start_desktop_cron_ticker() swapped its inline tick loop for
resolve_cron_scheduler().start() (no adapters/loop — desktop has none).
The provider owns ONLY the cron tick (so an external scale-to-zero provider
with no 60s loop fits); gateway housekeeping is decoupled from the cron
trigger. Both threads share cron_stop.
Verified: full tests/cron/ (453) + full tests/gateway/ (6919) green. Manual
gateway smoke (Task 3.4) is operator-run, pending.
* feat(relay): authenticate the connector⇄gateway WS channel
The relay gateway may be customer-managed and internet-exposed, so the
connector⇄gateway channel is itself authenticated (distinct from the
platform crypto the relay path sheds). Add gateway/relay/auth.py — a
Python port of the connector's HMAC token + delivery-signature schemes
(relayAuthToken.ts / deliverySigning.ts), verified byte-for-byte against
the connector's compiled TypeScript via cross-language test vectors.
Present an Authorization bearer on the /relay WS upgrade keyed by the
per-gateway secret (resolved from GATEWAY_RELAY_ID / GATEWAY_RELAY_SECRET
in env or config). The connector rejects an unauthenticated/invalid/
revoked upgrade with close 4401.
* feat(relay): signed-HTTP inbound delivery receiver
The connector delivers normalized inbound events to a tenant's gateway
over a signed HTTP POST, not the outbound /relay WS: the connector
instance owning a platform socket is generally not the instance a given
gateway dialed out to, so inbound targets a tenant endpoint that may
load-balance across gateway instances.
Add gateway/relay/inbound_receiver.py — verifies x-relay-signature /
x-relay-timestamp over the EXACT raw request bytes (re-serializing would
break the HMAC: JS JSON.stringify is compact, Python json.dumps spaces)
against the per-tenant delivery key verify list within a 300s replay
window, then dispatches messages to handle_message and interrupts to the
interrupt handler. Wire it into the adapter lifecycle (start in connect()
when a delivery key + bind port are configured, tear down in disconnect();
a purely-outbound dev gateway runs without it).
Refine test_relay_sheds_crypto to distinguish PLATFORM crypto (Discord
ed25519, Twilio/WeCom HMAC — still shed) from the connector⇄gateway
CHANNEL auth (intended): auth.py / inbound_receiver.py are exempt from
the platform-symbol scan but still banned from importing platform-crypto
modules, plus a positive guard that auth.py uses only stdlib hmac/hashlib.
* feat(relay): hermes gateway enroll CLI
Add the gateway half of zero-touch enrollment. `hermes gateway enroll`
resolves a fresh Nous Portal access token (the tenant-proving identity),
POSTs {enrollmentToken, gatewayId} to the connector's /relay/enroll, and
persists GATEWAY_RELAY_ID / GATEWAY_RELAY_SECRET / GATEWAY_RELAY_DELIVERY_KEY
to ~/.hermes/.env. The per-gateway secret authenticates the WS upgrade;
the per-tenant delivery key verifies signed inbound deliveries.
Refuses under is_managed() (hosted installs get the secret stamped in by
the orchestrator). Added as an 'enroll' subcommand on the existing
gateway subparser — not a new top-level command.
* docs(relay): inbound is signed HTTP, not WS; document channel auth
Fix the stale contract: §3/§5 said inbound rode the WS socket (single-
instance only, predates the multi-instance socket-ownership + channel-auth
model). Inbound + connector→gateway interrupt are signed HTTP POSTs to the
tenant endpoint. Add §6.1 documenting the two channel-auth schemes (per-
gateway WS-upgrade secret, per-tenant inbound delivery key) and how they
differ from the platform crypto the relay path sheds.
* test(relay): update build_gateway_parser callers for cmd_gateway_enroll
The enroll subcommand added cmd_gateway_enroll as a required keyword-only
arg to build_gateway_parser, but two existing parser-extraction tests still
called it with only cmd_gateway/cmd_proxy — failing CI with TypeError.
Thread the new handler through both call sites and add a test asserting
`gateway enroll` dispatches to cmd_gateway_enroll with its flags parsed.
Wire the relay adapter into gateway startup and make activation config-driven
instead of a dark-launch flag.
- gateway/relay/__init__.py: replace relay_enabled()/HERMES_GATEWAY_RELAY with
relay_url() (GATEWAY_RELAY_URL env or gateway.relay_url in config.yaml) — the
same shape as gateway.proxy_url. register_relay_adapter() registers when a URL
is configured and builds a live WebSocketRelayTransport; with no URL it's a
no-op (direct/single-tenant deployments unaffected). force=True keeps the
transport-less adapter for unit tests. relay_platform_identity() reads the
hello platform/botId from GATEWAY_RELAY_PLATFORM/GATEWAY_RELAY_BOT_ID.
- gateway/run.py: call register_relay_adapter() during GatewayRunner.start(),
right after plugin discovery, so a configured connector relay is registered
on every boot. Failures are logged, never block startup.
This removes the dark-launch posture: the relay is on whenever it's configured,
shipping the production end state rather than hiding it behind a flag.
Adds the concrete transport behind the RelayTransport Protocol — the missing
'later-phase work' the relay scaffold deferred. The gateway dials OUT to the
connector over a WebSocket and speaks the newline-delimited JSON frame protocol
(docs/relay-connector-contract.md; connector src/relay/protocol.ts):
- connect(): opens the ws, sends hello{platform,botId}, starts a background
read loop, and resolves handshake() when the connector's descriptor frame
arrives.
- inbound frames -> the registered InboundHandler (rebuilt into a MessageEvent
via _event_from_wire, mapping the snake_case SessionSource wire form back
onto the gateway dataclasses).
- send_outbound / send_follow_up / get_chat_info: request/response correlated
by a uuid requestId against a per-request future, with a timeout so a caller
never hangs; send_interrupt is fire-and-forget.
- disconnect(): cancels the reader, closes the ws, and fails any in-flight
outbound waiters with a structured error.
RelayAdapter.connect() now negotiates the real CapabilityDescriptor from the
transport and adopts it (_apply_descriptor updates MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH +
markdown surface), replacing the construction-time placeholder. Lazy
'import websockets' mirrors gateway/platforms/feishu.py; WEBSOCKETS_AVAILABLE
gates construction.
The relay outbound surface had send/edit/typing but no way to act on a
SHARED-identity capability (e.g. a Discord interaction follow-up token,
~15min) that the connector captured + stripped at the edge. Under A2 that
credential never reaches the gateway, so the gateway can't just 'send with
the token' — it needs a semantic op naming the session it's already in.
Adds the follow_up op end to end on the gateway side:
- RelayTransport.send_follow_up(action): protocol method. Action carries
op='follow_up' + session_key + kind + content (+ metadata) and NO token.
- RelayAdapter.send_follow_up(session_key, kind, content, metadata): builds
that action and returns a SendResult. The connector resolves the real
capability (its resolveOutboundCapability), enforces the tenant match so
tenant B can't wield tenant A's capability, and egresses; success=False
when the capability is absent/expired/mismatched (nothing to retry — a
leaked gateway holds zero capability material).
- StubConnector records follow_ups + a canned next_follow_up_result.
Tests: round-trips without a token; the wire action carries only session
refs (no credential value field — the 'kind' string is a type ref, not the
secret); failure surfaces when the connector can't resolve; no-transport
fails cleanly. 55 passed. §4 doc entry follows in the contract-rewrite commit.
The platform-connected-checker invariant test requires every built-in
Platform enum member to have either a generic token path or a bespoke
entry in _PLATFORM_CONNECTED_CHECKERS. Platform.RELAY was added without
one, so test_all_builtins_have_checker_or_generic_token_path failed.
Relay dials OUT to a connector and is 'connected' once an endpoint URL
is configured (extra['relay_url'] or extra['url']); the capability
descriptor is negotiated at handshake time, so the URL is the only
config-level signal in the experimental phase. Add the checker plus a
synthetic-config case exercising its True path.
RelayAdapter.on_interrupt(session_key, chat_id) bridges a connector-delivered
mid-turn /stop into the existing interrupt_session_activity path, setting the
per-session _active_sessions Event and clearing typing — cancelling exactly the
targeted session's turn without touching siblings (mirrors test_stop_thread_
sibling isolation). Transport.send_interrupt carries the gateway-side egress to
the connector for socket-owner routing.
Phase 1, Task 1.4 of the gateway-relay plan.
register_relay_adapter() registers the generic 'relay' platform via the same
PlatformRegistry path as plugin adapters — no core dispatch changes. OFF by
default (dark-launch): only registers when HERMES_GATEWAY_RELAY is truthy (or
force=True for tests), so existing single-tenant/direct deployments are
unaffected. Factory builds a transport-less RelayAdapter with a placeholder
descriptor; the real descriptor is negotiated at handshake.
Phase 1, Task 1.3 of the gateway-relay plan.
Defines RelayTransport (lifecycle/handshake/inbound/outbound/interrupt) as the
gateway<->connector wire contract; RelayAdapter.connect now registers an inbound
handler that bridges connector-delivered MessageEvents into handle_message.
Adds an in-memory StubConnector under tests/ and an E2E round-trip proving:
connect registers the handler, inbound events reach the adapter, guild_id drives
build_session_key isolation (two guilds -> two keys; same guild/channel/user ->
one), outbound send round-trips, get_chat_info is proxied.
Phase 1, Task 1.2 of the gateway-relay plan.
One BasePlatformAdapter subclass that reads its capability profile from a
CapabilityDescriptor: MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH attribute, message_len_fn (table-driven
by len_unit: chars=len, utf16=Telegram-style code units), supports_draft_streaming.
Implements the four abstract methods (connect/disconnect/send/get_chat_info) by
delegating to an injected RelayTransport (full protocol lands in Task 1.2). Adds
Platform.RELAY enum member. No per-platform gateway code.
Phase 1, Task 1.1 of the gateway-relay plan.
CapabilityDescriptor.from_platform_entry() projects an existing PlatformEntry
(label, max_message_length, emoji, platform_hint, pii_safe, name) into a
descriptor, proving the descriptor is a projection of existing config rather
than a parallel concept. Runtime-only capabilities (len_unit, draft/edit/
thread/markdown) are caller-supplied. max_message_length==0 ('no limit') maps
to the stream_consumer 4096 default.
Phase 0 complete. Task 0.3 of the gateway-relay plan.
* feat(mcp): raise default tool-call timeout 120s -> 300s
Port from openai/codex#28234. Long-running MCP tools (web fetches,
sandboxed builds, deep-research servers) routinely exceed 120s, causing
spurious timeout failures. Codex bumped its default MCP tool timeout from
120 to 300 for the same reason.
- _DEFAULT_TOOL_TIMEOUT 120 -> 300 in tools/mcp_tool.py (per-server
'timeout' config override unchanged)
- update test_default_timeout assertion
- document the default in mcp-config-reference.md
* refactor: remove agent-callable send_message tool
The agent should not decide on its own to fire off cross-platform
messages or reactions. Outbound platform messaging is handled outside
the agent loop — cron delivery, the gateway kanban notifier
(dashboard-toggled), and the `hermes send` CLI.
Removes the model-tool registration only; the send engine in
send_message_tool.py (_send_to_platform, _send_via_adapter,
_parse_target_ref, per-platform _send_* helpers) is kept intact for
those non-agent callers. Drops the now-empty 'messaging' toolset and
its `hermes tools` toggle. Yuanbao DM guidance now points at the
native yb_send_dm tool.
Follow-up to salvaged PR #41633: the timestamp prefix injection was
unconditional. Gate the in-context render behind
gateway.message_timestamps.enabled (default false) at both the live-message
and history-replay sites; timestamp metadata is still captured + persisted
regardless so the toggle can be flipped on later. Add DEFAULT_CONFIG entry,
docs, and gate tests.
Consolidates these related Amy fork patches:
- 429830f39 feat(gateway): inject message timestamps into user messages for LLM context
- 3c3d6fac0 fix: handle both ISO string and epoch float timestamps in history replay
- 2874f7725 feat: human-friendly timestamp format with weekday and timezone name
- 3735f4c8b fix: render gateway message timestamps once
Telegram does not echo a sendRichMessage's content back in
reply_to_message (.text/.caption empty, .api_kwargs None), so replies
to rich sends (briefings, the gateway's own rich finals) arrived with
no quotable text and the [Replying to: ...] injection was skipped.
Remember message_id -> text at send time in a best-effort JSON index
(gateway/rich_sent_store.py), and recover it on inbound when text and
caption are both empty. Best-effort and no-throw throughout: any
failure degrades to prior behavior and never breaks a send or message.
Salvaged from #47375 by @x1erra. Dropped the cross-platform run.py
reply-prefix rewrite (out of scope; bloated every reply on every
platform) and scrubbed a docstring reference to an out-of-repo script.
Kept the inbound reply_to logging enrichment used to verify the fix.
PROBLEM: Mattermost threads can become invalid or enormous, exposing two failure modes: internal scratch/reasoning/commentary displays could leak into persistent Mattermost threads via global display toggles, while rejected threaded user-visible replies could disappear unless every failed send fell back flat. A broad flat fallback would pollute channels with tool/status/progress noise.
SOLUTION: Require explicit Mattermost platform opt-in for scratch displays, keep using the existing notify=True metadata marker for user-visible final text/media/file replies, and allow the Mattermost plugin adapter to flat-fallback only notify-worthy sends whose threaded POST failure looks like a broken root/thread. Keep tool/status/progress and other non-notify sends thread-strict. Add regression tests for display opt-in, notify-only broken-thread fallback, generic API failure suppression, and stream notify metadata.

`BasePlatformAdapter.send_multiple_images` passes `metadata=metadata` to
`send_image` / `send_image_file` / `send_animation` on every send. The
WhatsApp and email `send_image` overrides stopped their signature at
`reply_to`, so any image delivered as a URL (the common case — image-gen
backends return URLs) raised:
TypeError: send_image() got an unexpected keyword argument "metadata"
and the image silently failed to send. Their sibling overrides
(`send_image_file` / `send_video` / `send_voice` / `send_document`)
already absorb it via **kwargs, which is why only plain image-URL sends
broke.
- whatsapp/email `send_image`: accept `metadata` (matches the base
signature); WhatsApp forwards it to the super() text fallback.
- Add `tests/gateway/test_media_metadata_contract.py`: asserts WhatsApp +
email accept it, plus a best-effort sweep over every adapter so the next
slip fails at test time instead of in production.

Add display.tool_progress_style setting to control how tool progress
messages are displayed in chat platforms:
- 'accumulate' (default): Edit a single message with all tool calls
(new v0.9.0 behavior)
- 'separate': Send each tool call as its own message, interleaved
with thinking messages (pre-v0.9 behavior, better readability)
The setting participates in the per-platform display override system
and can be set globally or per-platform.
Files: gateway/display_config.py, gateway/run.py
Background memory reviews now support three notification modes,
configured via display.memory_notifications in config.yaml:
off — no chat notification (still logged to stdout/HA log)
on — generic '💾 Memory updated' (default, unchanged behavior)
verbose — content preview with action indicators:
💾 Memory ➕ Hermes Repo liegt unter /config/amy/hermes-agent/...
💾 Memory ✏️ Updated repo path from claude-code to hermes-agent...
💾 Memory ➖ old entry about claude-code path...
Previews are truncated to 120 chars for adds/replaces, 60 for removes.
Each action gets its own line in verbose mode for readability.
Files: run_agent.py, gateway/run.py
Streamed Telegram replies that finalize through editMessageText were
converted to MarkdownV2, which has no table syntax and rewrites pipe
tables into bullet lists — users saw a table while streaming that
collapsed to a list at the last moment.
Finalize now edits the existing preview IN PLACE via Bot API 10.1's
editMessageText rich_message parameter when the content has constructs
the legacy path degrades (tables, task lists, <details>, block math).
No fresh send + delete, so no duplicate-preview flicker — the reason
#46206 reverted the fresh-final re-send path. prefers_fresh_final_streaming
stays False; the in-place edit replaces it.
- _needs_rich_rendering(): rich reserved for table/task-list/details/math
(adapted from #45995, @YonganZhang); plain replies stay on MarkdownV2.
- _try_edit_rich(): editMessageText + rich_message via do_api_request,
mirroring _try_send_rich's fallback/latch/transient contract.
- edit_message finalize tries rich in place before the 4,096 overflow
pre-flight (rich cap is 32,768), falling back to legacy on rejection.
- rich_messages default flipped back to True (DEFAULT_CONFIG + adapter).
- docs (en + zh-Hans) + cli-config example updated to default-on.
Closes the root cause behind #45911 / #46009.
* feat(delegation): async background subagents via delegate_task(background=true)
delegate_task(background=true) dispatches a subagent that runs in the
background and returns a handle immediately, so the user and model keep
working while it runs. The full result — plus the original task source —
re-enters the conversation as a new turn when the subagent finishes,
riding the same completion-queue rail as terminal background processes.
- tools/async_delegation.py: daemon-executor registry, capacity cap,
rich self-contained completion event pushed onto the shared
process_registry.completion_queue (type='async_delegation').
- delegate_tool.py: background param + single-task dispatch branch;
batch async rejected (v1).
- process_registry.py: format_process_notification renders the rich
task-source block (goal/context/toolsets/model/status/result).
- gateway/run.py: dedicated _async_delegation_watcher drains + injects
results into the originating session (idle + post-turn), session_key
routing enrichment, shutdown interrupt of dangling delegations.
- config: delegation.max_async_children (default 3).
Reuses the existing idle-drain wiring rather than mutating a running
agent loop, preserving message-role alternation and prompt-cache
invariants. 13 targeted tests; CLI + gateway paths E2E-verified.
* test(delegation): make async non-blocking tests environment-independent
CI 'test (5)' flaked on a cold, 8-worker runner: the first
delegate_task(background=true) call measured 2.27s of one-time setup
(config load + child-agent construction + imports), tripping the
elapsed < 1.0 wall-clock assertion. That assertion was testing setup
overhead, not blocking.
Replace the wall-clock thresholds with the real invariant: dispatch
returns while the child is still gated (active_count == 1, completion
queue empty), which a synchronous impl could not do. Keep only a loose
4s sanity backstop well under the runner's 5s gate.
* fix(delegation): harden async background delegation
Follow-up review fixes:
- Detach background child from parent._active_children at dispatch —
otherwise parent-turn interrupts (Ctrl+C, mid-turn steering), cache
evicts (release_clients), and session close (/new) kill/close the
detached subagent mid-run, defeating the point of background mode.
Lifecycle is owned by the async registry's interrupt_fn.
- Make the capacity check atomic with the record insert (TOCTOU: two
concurrent dispatches could both pass active_count() and exceed the cap).
- TUI dedup: key async_delegation events by delegation_id — the
fallthrough keyed them all as ("", type), suppressing every completion
after the first in the desktop/TUI status feed.
- CLI /stop now interrupts running background delegations and /agents
lists them (they live outside the process registry and were invisible).
- Drop stray unbalanced ']' line from the re-injection block and the
unused _ASYNC_DEFAULT import.
Tests: detach-at-dispatch + concurrent-capacity race added (15 total in
test_async_delegation.py); 137 delegate + 140 process-registry/notify/watch
+ 7 TUI dedup tests pass.
* fix(delegation): harden async background completion drains
PROBLEM: The old public /status PR drifted out of the current Amy patch stack, leaving /status without the model/provider, context window, or explicit cumulative token label that Wolfram uses to monitor context pressure from chat.
SOLUTION: Re-port the feature onto the current gateway status handler. Prefer live/cached agent runtime metadata, fall back to SessionDB + SessionStore state between turns, add localized status model/context lines, and keep token totals explicitly labeled cumulative.
Verification: tests/gateway/test_status_command.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_commands.py
Track why a background process finished and include that source in notify-on-complete messages so SIGTERM from process.kill, kill_all, backend loss, and ordinary exits are distinguishable.
Add a parser-only routing regression that proves raw WhatsApp group JIDs bypass channel-directory resolution and home-channel fallback, include channel_aliases.json in quick state snapshots, harden malformed alias handling, and map Keiron McCammon for release attribution.
send_message(target="whatsapp:<group-jid>") silently delivered to the
configured home DM instead of the requested group. Two gaps:
1. _parse_target_ref had no WhatsApp branch. Group JIDs (<id>@g.us),
user JIDs (<id>@s.whatsapp.net), linked-identity JIDs (<id>@lid), and
broadcast/newsletter JIDs matched no pattern and fell through to
`return None, None, False`, so the caller treated them as
unresolvable and used the home channel. The bridge's /send endpoint
accepts any chatId, so only the tool-side target parsing was at fault.
Add a whatsapp branch that recognizes native JIDs as explicit targets.
The pre-existing '+'-prefixed E.164 path is preserved.
2. WhatsApp groups have no human-friendly name — the channel directory
is regenerated from session data on a timer, so a group shows up as
its raw 18-digit JID and any hand-edit to channel_directory.json is
clobbered on the next rebuild. Add a user-maintained alias overlay
(~/.hermes/channel_aliases.json) re-applied on every build AND every
load, giving durable friendly names and letting a freshly-created
group be pre-named before its first message.
Tests: TestParseTargetRefWhatsAppJID (7 cases) for the parser;
TestChannelAliases (7 cases) for the overlay, plus an autouse fixture
isolating CHANNEL_ALIASES_PATH so a real alias file can't leak into the
existing directory tests.
On Linux, systemd spawns core services (cron, nginx, sshd) with
deterministic PIDs and jiffy start_times across reboots. A service can
land on the exact same PID and start_time as a previous gateway, causing
acquire_scoped_lock to mistake it for a live gateway and block startup.
The existing stale-detection paths only covered:
- start_times both non-None and different (clear mismatch)
- start_times both None (macOS/Windows fallback to cmdline check)
The boot-time collision falls through both: times are non-None and
equal, so neither branch fired.
Add a third check: when both start_times are known and match but the
live process fails _looks_like_gateway_process, read its cmdline. If
the cmdline is readable (non-None), we have positive evidence of an
impostor and mark the lock stale. Requiring a readable cmdline keeps the
check conservative — if cmdline is unreadable we do not evict.
The #45966 cross-process coherence guard snapshots a session's on-disk
message_count next to the cached agent and rebuilds the agent when the
count changes. But the snapshot is taken at agent-BUILD time — before
the turn writes its own user + assistant (+ tool) rows — and the cache
entry is never rewritten on a reuse. So this process's OWN turn grows
message_count, and the very next turn sees a mismatch and rebuilds the
agent. That happens every turn, for every conversation, silently
destroying the per-conversation prompt caching the cache exists to
protect (AGENTS.md: prompt caching is sacred).
Add _refresh_agent_cache_message_count(): after a turn completes and the
agent has flushed its rows to the SessionDB, re-baseline the stored count
to the now-current value. The guard then fires ONLY when a DIFFERENT
process changes the transcript — preserving the #45966 fix while keeping
the cache warm for normal single-process operation.
Tests drive the real SessionDB + the real guard condition: 5 consecutive
same-process turns now all REUSE the cached agent (0 before the fix); a
cross-process append still invalidates; and the re-baseline is fail-safe
(no DB, falsy session_id, raising probe, legacy 2-tuple, pending sentinel
all no-op).
Three changes to prevent infinite re-execution loops when a user sends
a new message while long-running tools are executing:
1. Filter interrupted tool results in _build_gateway_agent_history:
skip tool messages whose content contains [Command interrupted] or
exit_code 130 — they represent partial execution, not valid results.
2. Don't replay auto-continue notes as user messages: detect
gateway-injected [System note: ...] / [IMPORTANT: ...] prefixes
and skip them in _build_gateway_agent_history so the LLM doesn't
see 4+ messages from 'the user' telling it to finish old work.
3. Fix the wording: the system note now instructs the model to
address the user's NEW message FIRST, IGNORE pending results,
and NOT re-execute old tool calls.
Closes#45230
Port 465 expects implicit TLS (SMTP_SSL) from the first byte. The email
adapter always used SMTP() + starttls(), which is correct for port 587
but hangs/fails on port 465 providers (e.g., Swiss ISPs).
Additionally, when the SMTP host has AAAA DNS records but IPv6 is
unreachable, socket.create_connection() tries IPv6 first and hangs
until timeout. Add an IPv4 fallback via AF_INET socket.
Extract _connect_smtp() helper to consolidate the 4 duplicate SMTP
connection sites into a single method with correct protocol selection
and IPv6 fallback logic.
Gateway startup now queues real inbound messages until restart-interrupted auto-resume turns have completed, preventing duplicate agents for the same session after a restart.
A stale certifi CA bundle after a partial `hermes update` used to crash
the agent on the first outbound HTTPS call with a raw traceback and
trap the gateway in a retry loop.
This patch:
* Adds `agent/errors.py` with a typed `SSLConfigurationError`
* Adds `agent/ssl_guard.py` with a `verify_ca_bundle()` pre-flight
that asserts the bundle exists, is non-trivial in size, and can build
a working SSLContext. On macOS, it falls back to the system trust
store when the bundle is empty but the system store is healthy
(covers corporate proxies / MDM setups).
* Wires the guard into `run_agent.py` and `gateway/run.py` right
after the `hermes_bootstrap` import, inside a try/except so a bug
in the guard itself can never prevent startup.
* Adds a `SSL / CA Certificates` section to `hermes_cli doctor` so
users can detect the failure with one command.
* Adds unit tests covering the healthy, missing, empty, skip-env, and
macOS-fallback paths.
* Adds an RCA document describing the failure mode and the recovery
path (`pip install -e .`).
When the bundle is broken the user sees:
\u26a0\ufe0f SSL certificate bundle issue detected.
Run: pip install -e .
`HERMES_SKIP_SSL_GUARD=1` disables the check for sandboxed
environments that ship their own trust store.
Carry forward focused follow-ups from PR #45741: treat PTB's raw Bot API 10.1 response shapes safely, recognize real missing-endpoint errors, preserve link preview settings on rich sends, and lock the rich limit to Telegram's character-based cap.
The salvaged fix's two regression tests mock adapter.handle_message, so
they only assert the pre-claimed sentinel is set/cleaned around a stub —
they never drive the real dispatch chain. Add a full-path test that
exercises _schedule_resume_pending_sessions -> _guarded_handle_message ->
adapter.handle_message -> _process_message_background -> _handle_message
and asserts the resumed session's agent runs EXACTLY ONCE: not zero (the
pre-claim must not self-bounce the resume into a queued no-op) and not
twice (the duplicate-agent bug #45456 the fix targets). Also assert no
leaked sentinel and no orphaned pending event after the drain settles.
Tighten the _guarded_handle_message docstring: on current main the real
sentinel is taken over inside _handle_message (not _process_message_background),
and note the `is _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL` guard only releases the slot we
ourselves placed, never one a live run owns.
When the gateway restarts and auto-resumes an interrupted session, an
inbound message arriving in the window between `asyncio.create_task()`
and the task's first await could spin up a second AIAgent for the same
session. Both agents would then process messages concurrently,
producing interleaved duplicate responses (#45456).
Fix: set `_AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL` in `_running_agents` immediately
after the "already running" check, before creating the task. This
closes the race window — any inbound message sees the slot as occupied
and queues behind the auto-resume.
A `_guarded_handle_message` wrapper ensures the pre-claimed sentinel is
always released, even if `handle_message` raises before reaching
`_process_message_background` (whose `finally` block handles normal
cleanup).

Keep the own-policy fail-closed hardening from PR #45444, but still trust WeCom groups.<id>.allow_from because the adapter already checked that sender allowlist before dispatching to gateway auth.
Own-policy adapters (WhatsApp, WeCom, Weixin, QQBot, Yuanbao) default dm_policy/group_policy to "open", which forwards every sender. The gateway's adapter-trust shortcut in _is_user_authorized blanket-trusted those platforms when no env allowlist was set, so an operator who enabled one with only credentials authorized the entire external network -- the fail-open SECURITY.md section 2.6 forbids ("an allowlist is required for every enabled network-exposed adapter").
Trust the adapter only when its effective policy for the chat type is an actual "allowlist" restriction (the case #34515 was protecting). "open"/"pairing"/anything else falls through to default-deny, where {PLATFORM}_ALLOW_ALL_USERS / GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS and the pairing flow remain the explicit opt-ins.
Old Office formats (.xls, .doc, .ppt) were missing from the
SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES dict in gateway/platforms/base.py while their
newer counterparts (.xlsx, .docx, .pptx) were included.
Sending an .xls file via Telegram triggers 'Unsupported document type'
and the file is silently dropped instead of being cached and forwarded
to the agent.
Add the three legacy MIME types so these files are handled the same way
as their modern equivalents.
After compression exhaustion the auto-reset created a fresh session but
discarded reset_session()'s return value and left the Telegram topic
binding pointing at the oversized compressed child. The next inbound
message in that topic healed the binding forward and switch_session'd the
freshly-reset lane back onto the bloated transcript, re-triggering
compression exhaustion in a loop with a new session id each time.
Capture the fresh entry and re-sync the topic binding to it so the next
message starts clean. No-op on non-topic lanes.
Regression of the #9893/#10063 auto-reset fix.
Fixes#35809
Remove the rich_messages config toggle entirely so Telegram replies always try the Bot API 10.1 rich-message path first, with the existing MarkdownV2 fallback/latch behavior for unsupported endpoints and per-message failures.
Restore the Telegram platform hint to encourage rich Markdown tables/task lists/math now that the rich path is the default, and remove the config/docs surface for the old toggle.
Salvages PR #25747 by preserving gateway session rotation even when a post-compression model call fails before returning final content.

- Use reply_parameters per the sendRichMessage spec instead of the
undocumented reply_to_message_id scalar (silently ignored -> reply
anchor quietly dropped).
- Latch rich sends off after an endpoint-capability failure (old PTB /
server without sendRichMessage) so every later reply doesn't pay a
doomed extra roundtrip; per-message BadRequests do NOT latch.
- Default rich_messages to OFF (opt-in) while the day-old Bot API 10.1
endpoint is validated live; revert the prompt-hint table guidance
until the default flips on.
- Tests: reply_parameters shape, send-latch behavior, BadRequest
non-latch; rich tests opt in explicitly via extra.
Introduce opportunistic support for Telegram Bot API 10.1 rich messages by sending raw agent Markdown via sendRichMessage and streaming previews via sendRichMessageDraft. Implements a rich-path fast‑path in gateway/platforms/telegram.py (RICH_MESSAGE_MAX_BYTES=32768, feature gate platforms.telegram.extra.rich_messages, bot capability checks, routing/thread handling, and conservative fallback rules: permanent/capability errors fall back to the legacy MarkdownV2 path, transient/network errors are surfaced without legacy-resend). Also add a latch for draft capability failures (_rich_draft_disabled) and preserve legacy chunking and draft behavior when needed. Update agent prompt hints (telegram encourages rich Markdown/tables), add CLI config example option, update English and Chinese docs to describe rich messages and fallbacks, and add/adjust tests for rich send and draft behavior.
* feat(billing): /usage → portal top-up browser handoff
Add the terminal side of the billing slice (phase 2a): start a top-up by
throwing the user to the portal billing page with the top-up modal open. The
terminal does not confirm, poll, or track payment — checkout completes in the
browser and the next /usage shows the new balance.
- nous_account.py: parse organisation.slug/name from /api/oauth/account into
NousPortalAccountInfo; add nous_portal_topup_url() building the org-pinned
{base}/orgs/{slug}/billing?topup=open with a null-slug fallback to the legacy
{base}/billing?topup=open (never /orgs/None/...).
- portal_cli.py: 'hermes portal topup' — fresh account fetch, identity line
(Topping up as <email> / org <name>), browser open with printed-URL fallback,
no-wait closing copy. No polling/confirmation (deferred to 2b).
- account_usage.py: the shared /usage credits block now links the org-pinned
top-up URL (auto-opens the modal) + points to the command.
Depends on NAS #409 (organisation.slug/name + ?topup=open). Do not merge until
that is live on the target env; until then /api/oauth/account returns
organisation: { id } only and the URL falls back to legacy.
* feat(billing): /credits command for balance + top-up handoff
Replace the standalone `hermes portal topup` subcommand with an in-session
/credits slash command — a focused money surface (balance in, top-up out) that
works in the CLI, TUI, and every messaging platform from one registry entry.
- commands.py: register /credits (Info category). Slack is at its 50-slash cap,
so /credits is routed via /hermes credits on Slack only (new
_SLACK_VIA_HERMES_ONLY set) to avoid clamping a canonical command off the
native list and breaking Telegram parity; native everywhere else.
- account_usage.py: build_credits_view() — one portal fetch → balance lines +
identity line + org-pinned top-up URL + depleted flag, consumed by all
surfaces. Reuses the same snapshot/URL builder as /usage so numbers match.
- cli.py: _show_credits() — balance block + identity line + 3-button panel
(Open top-up / Copy link / Cancel) via the existing prompt_toolkit modal.
ASK, never auto-launch; headless falls back to printing the URL.
- gateway/slash_commands.py: _handle_credits_command() — renders the block +
tappable top-up URL + no-wait copy; works on button and plain-text platforms.
- /usage credits line now points to /credits.
- Retire `hermes portal topup` (portal_cli.py back to baseline); the engine
(slug/name parse + nous_portal_topup_url) stays as the shared core.
No polling, no payment confirmation (billing phase 2a). Depends on NAS #409.
* fix(credits): /credits works in the TUI slash-worker (non-interactive)
In the TUI, /credits runs in the slash-worker subprocess where there is no
live prompt_toolkit app and stdin is the JSON-RPC pipe. _show_credits called
the 3-button modal unconditionally, which fell back to reading stdin →
exception → slash.exec rejected → the command produced no output (only the
pre-existing 'Credit access paused' banner showed).
- _show_credits: when self._app is None (TUI worker / piped / non-interactive),
render the text variant — balance block + tappable top-up URL + no-wait line,
same affordance as the messaging surfaces — and skip the modal entirely. The
3-button panel still renders in the interactive CLI.
- Depleted banner copy: 'run /usage for balance' → 'run /credits to top up'
now that /credits is the dedicated money surface (+ tests).
- Regression tests: _show_credits with self._app=None renders text and never
invokes the modal; logged-out path.
* feat(tui): credits.view RPC for the /credits tappable top-up button
Add a credits.view JSON-RPC method returning the structured CreditsView
(logged_in, balance_lines, identity_line, topup_url, depleted) so the TUI can
render a clickable <Link> top-up button instead of plain text. Account-
independent (portal fetch gated on a logged-in Nous account), fail-open to
{logged_in: false} on any hiccup. Mirrors session.usage's credits-block pattern.
Frontend (TUI-local /credits command + Ink component) lands separately.
* feat(tui): /credits command with keyboard-driven top-up confirm
TUI-local /credits: fetches the structured balance via the credits.view RPC,
prints the balance + identity + top-up URL, then arms the EXISTING confirm
overlay (Enter = open top-up in browser via openExternalUrl, Esc = cancel).
Reuses ConfirmReq — no new overlay component/state/input handler. Headless
(openExternalUrl returns false) falls back to printing the URL.
- gatewayTypes.ts: CreditsViewResponse.
- commands/credits.ts: the command (mirrors /status's rpc+guarded pattern).
- registry.ts: register creditsCommands.
- test: balance+overlay armed, headless fallback, no-url, logged-out (4 cases).
Matches the CLI /credits 'Enter to open' affordance. Phase 2a: no polling.
Email cached document attachments and placed them in media_urls, but
msg_type only flipped on image attachments — documents stayed TEXT and
run.py's document-context injection (gated on MessageType.DOCUMENT)
silently dropped them. Same bug class as Signal #12845. DOCUMENT wins
over PHOTO for mixed attachments since image handling keys off per-path
mime types while document injection gates strictly on message_type.
Widen the salvaged #12851 fix to match the established classification
pattern (WhatsApp/Slack/BlueBubbles/Mattermost): video/* -> VIDEO, and
any remaining MIME type falls through to DOCUMENT instead of TEXT, so
exotic types still trigger run.py's document-context injection.
Register no-op Slack event handlers for inbound reaction_added and reaction_removed events so Slack Bolt does not log unhandled-request warnings for events Hermes does not consume.
The previous implementation captured loop vars via default arguments::
async def _wrapped(ack, body, action, _cb=_cb, _plugin_name=_plugin_name):
slack_bolt's ``kwargs_injection`` introspects each listener's signature
via ``inspect.signature`` and passes ``None`` for any parameter name it
doesn't recognise (see ``slack_bolt/kwargs_injection/async_utils.py``
``build_async_required_kwargs``). That clobbered ``_cb`` to ``None`` at
dispatch time, so the wrapped plugin handler became ``NoneType`` —
``await _cb(...)`` then raised ``'NoneType' object is not callable`` and
no plugin action handler ever fired.
Replace the default-arg trick with a small closure factory so the
wrapper's public signature is exactly ``(ack, body, action)``. Add a
regression test that introspects the wrapped function's signature.
Found via real Slack click on a Block Kit button registered through
``ctx.register_slack_action_handler`` — gateway log showed
``[Slack] Plugin 'None' action handler raised: 'NoneType' object is
not callable`` despite the registration log line confirming the
handler was wired.

Plugins that post Block Kit messages with interactive elements (buttons,
overflow menus, datepickers, etc.) had no documented way to receive the
resulting click events. The plugin API exposed register_tool, register_hook,
register_command, register_platform, and register_context_engine, but
nothing for slack_bolt action handlers. The only workaround was to
monkey-patch SlackAdapter.connect from inside register(), which is
fragile and breaks on every Hermes update.
This change adds:
* PluginContext.register_slack_action_handler(action_id, callback) —
validates inputs and queues the handler on the PluginManager.
action_id accepts whatever slack_bolt.App.action() accepts (literal
string, compiled re.Pattern, or constraint dict).
* PluginManager.get_slack_action_handlers() — accessor used by the
Slack adapter at connect time.
* SlackAdapter.connect — after wiring its built-in approval and
slash-confirm buttons, iterates the plugin-registered handlers
and registers each via self._app.action(matcher)(callback). Each
callback is wrapped defensively so a misbehaving plugin cannot
crash slack_bolt's dispatch loop, with a best-effort ack on
exception so Slack stops retrying the click.
* Defensive fallback when the plugin layer is unhealthy: a
RuntimeError from get_plugin_manager() is logged and swallowed
rather than blocking the gateway from starting.
* Test coverage in tests/gateway/test_slack_plugin_action_handlers.py
for input validation, multi-plugin registration, the connect-time
wiring, defensive exception handling, and the plugin-loader-
failure fallback path.
* Documentation in website/docs/guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md
describing the new API alongside the existing register_command /
dispatch_tool documentation.

Sibling site of the PDF/DOCX note fixed in PR #44175: the audio file
attachment context note led with "Ask the user what they'd like you to
do with it", steering the model into asking instead of transcribing.
Rewritten to instruct the agent to transcribe/process the file itself
when the request involves its content, only asking when intent is
genuinely unclear. Contract assertion added to the existing audio
attachment note test.
When a user attached a binary document (PDF, DOCX, XLSX, …) in chat, the
context note prepended to the turn said "Ask the user what they'd like you to
do with it." That steered the model into asking the user to paste the
contents rather than extracting the text it is fully capable of reading — so
attached PDFs/DOCX appeared "unreadable" to the agent.
Rewrite the binary-document note to tell the agent the file is a non-text
format saved at the given path and to extract its text itself (e.g. via the
terminal tool or the ocr-and-documents skill) before answering. Text
documents (whose content is already inlined by the platform adapter) keep
their existing note. The note construction is pulled into a small
`_build_document_context_note` helper so it is unit-testable.
Review fixes for the Cron Recipes stack before release:
- hydration-move: */90 in the cron minute field silently wraps to hourly
(croniter-verified) — 90/120-minute options never fired at their stated
cadence. Replaced with an hour-field step (0 9-17/2 * * 1-5) and an
interval_hours slot whose options (1/2/3h) all fire as labeled.
- fill_recipe: reject unknown slot names. A typo'd 'tiem=07:15' used to
silently create the job at the 08:00 default; now it 422s on the dashboard
form and errors on the slash/deep-link paths with the valid slot list.
- deliver slot: non-strict enum (options are suggestions, scheduler
validates downstream) so slack/whatsapp/etc. users aren't locked out;
GET /api/cron/recipes rewrites its options from cron_delivery_targets()
so the dashboard form only offers configured platforms; help text no
longer claims dashboard-created jobs deliver to 'the chat you set this
up from' (the endpoint strips origin — they go to the home channel).
- gateway: success/accept messages no longer point at /cron (cli_only);
surface-aware hint instead. Conversational fill now sends the
'Setting up X — I'll ask you a couple of things…' ack before the agent
turn, matching the CLI experience.
- important-mail catalog entry: reference the urgency classifier by module
path (python3 -m cron.scripts.classify_items) instead of baking an
absolute host path into the job prompt — stale after relocation and
nonexistent on remote terminal backends. cron/scripts is now a real
package and ships in the wheel (pyproject packages.find).
- export_recipe: interval schedules round-trip again — parse_schedule
stores 'minutes' but the renderer only read 'seconds', so every interval
job exported as the silent '0 9 * * *' fallback.
- skills_hub install: say so when a recipe suggestion is dropped
(latched dedup or pending cap) instead of printing nothing.
Targeted tests: 58 cron/recipe + 261 web_server pass; E2E-validated all
14 recipes fill+parse, hydration cadences via croniter, typo rejection on
slash + endpoint paths, surface-aware hints, and interval export round-trip.
Reworks the chat-line UX: pick a recipe by name and the agent asks you for
what it needs, one question at a time, instead of forcing you to hand-type a
slot=val command line.
- /cron-recipe -> lists the catalog
- /cron-recipe <name> -> forgiving name match (exact/prefix/substring/
fuzzy; ambiguous lists candidates), then seeds
the agent with a natural-language fill request
built from the recipe's typed slots + schedule
and prompt templates. The agent asks for each
value one at a time and calls the EXISTING
cronjob tool. No new tool.
- /cron-recipe <name> slot=val -> unchanged deterministic path (fill_recipe ->
create_job) for the dashboard/docs/power user.
Mechanism (no new plumbing, invariant-safe — the seed enters as a normal user
turn, never a synthetic injection):
- shared handler returns RecipeCommandResult{text, agent_seed}; match_recipe()
and build_recipe_seed() are the new shared pieces.
- gateway: dispatch rewrites event.text to the seed and falls through to the
agent (the same pattern /steer uses).
- CLI: handler sets a one-shot self._pending_agent_seed; the interactive loop
consumes it right after process_command() and runs it as the next turn.
The typed-slot schema stays the single source of truth (still validates the
form/inline path via fill_recipe); the agent path just renders those slots into
the questions to ask. Docs updated to lead with the name-then-ask flow.
A 'recipe' is a one-place definition of an automation that every surface
renders natively. The slot schema (cron/recipe_catalog.py) is the single
source of truth; four renderers consume it, and all paths end at the same
cron.jobs.create_job — no second job engine.
Form where there's a screen, conversation where there's a chat line:
- Dashboard / GUI app: a Recipes sub-tab on the Cron page renders each
recipe's typed slots as a form (time-picker, enum dropdown, free-text);
submit POSTs /api/cron/recipes/instantiate which fills + creates the job.
- CLI / TUI / messengers: /cron-recipe lists the catalog, shows a recipe's
fields, or fills + creates from a pasted 'key slot=val' command. The shared
handler (hermes_cli/cron_recipe_cmd.py) names any missing/invalid slot so
the agent can ask a targeted follow-up.
- Docs: a generated Cron Recipes catalog page (website, .mdx + React cards)
shows each recipe with a copy-paste command and a 'Send to App' button.
- Desktop: a hermes:// URL scheme (Electron single-instance lock +
setAsDefaultProtocolClient + open-url/second-instance) routes
hermes://cron-recipe/<key>?slot=val into the chat composer pre-filled.
Typed slots (time/enum/text/weekdays) with defaults: users never type raw
cron — recipes parameterize time-of-day and weekday sets and translate to
cron expressions; a free-text 'schedule' slot is the full-flexibility escape
hatch. Consent-first throughout: nothing schedules without an explicit submit
or send.
Core:
- cron/recipe_catalog.py — CronRecipe + RecipeSlot, 5 curated recipes,
recipe_form_schema / recipe_slash_command / recipe_deeplink /
recipe_catalog_entry renderers, fill_recipe (validate + translate to
create_job kwargs).
- hermes_cli/cron_recipe_cmd.py — shared /cron-recipe handler (CLI + TUI +
gateway never drift). CommandDef + dispatch in commands.py / cli.py /
gateway/run.py.
Dashboard: GET /api/cron/recipes + POST /api/cron/recipes/instantiate
(web_server.py), CronRecipes.tsx gallery+form, Segmented sub-tab on CronPage,
api.ts methods + types.
Desktop: hermes:// scheme end to end (main.cjs deep-link router + ready-queue,
preload onDeepLink/signalDeepLinkReady, global.d.ts types, desktop-controller
composer prefill, electron-builder protocols key).
Docs: extract-cron-recipes.py generator wired into prebuild.mjs,
cron-recipes-catalog.mdx + CronRecipesCatalog React component, sidebar entry.
Generated index json gitignored like skills.json.
Tests: 23 core (catalog/slots/schedule-resolution/validation/renderers/command
handler/generator) + 5 web_server endpoint tests. E2E verified end to end:
slot fill -> create_job -> persisted job with correct schedule/deliver/origin.
Hermes can propose automations and let the user accept them with one tap
via /suggestions, instead of making them assemble cron jobs by hand. Every
proposal — wherever it originates — flows through one surface.
Sources (the 'where suggestions come from'):
- catalog: curated starter automations (daily briefing, important-mail
monitor, weekly review, workday-start reminder) via /suggestions catalog
- recipe: installing a skill that carries a metadata.hermes.recipe block
registers a suggestion instead of auto-scheduling
- usage / integration: reserved for the background-review detector and
account-connect triggers (sources defined; emitters land next)
Pieces:
- cron/suggestions.py — the store. add/list/accept/dismiss, dedup+latch by
key (dismissed proposals never re-offered), pending cap so it can't become
a nag wall. Accepting calls the existing cron.jobs.create_job — there is
NO second job engine. Mirrors jobs.py storage (atomic writes, lock, 0600).
- cron/suggestion_catalog.py — the curated set. The important-mail monitor
entry is where the old proactive-monitor poll->classify->surface engine
lives now (cron/scripts/classify_items.py + the 'monitor' aux task), as ONE
catalog automation rather than a standalone feature.
- tools/recipes.py — recipe<->job bridge; register_recipe_suggestion() makes
a recipe source 'recipe' of this surface. recipe_to_job_spec() is the single
translation both the direct and suggestion paths share.
- hermes_cli/suggestions_cmd.py — shared /suggestions handler (CLI + gateway
never drift); /suggestions [accept N|dismiss N|catalog|clear].
- Wired: CommandDef + CLI dispatch (cli.py) + gateway dispatch (gateway/run.py)
+ aux 'monitor' task (config.py) + recipe-install hook (skills_hub.py).
Consent-first throughout: nothing auto-schedules; acceptance is always
explicit; dismissals latch.
Supersedes #41122 (proactive-monitor) and #41127 (recipes): both fold in here
as a catalog entry and a suggestion source respectively.
Tests: store (dedup/cap/accept/dismiss/latch), catalog seeding+idempotency,
recipe->suggestion bridge, command handler, aux config. E2E: recipe SKILL.md
-> parsed -> suggested -> accepted -> real cron job persisted to jobs.json.
- nous_subscription: gate the STT managed-default flip on openai-audio
entitlement and skip when a local backend (faster-whisper or custom
command) works; new _local_stt_backend_available() helper + tests
- whatsapp_cloud: WHATSAPP_CLOUD_{DM_POLICY,ALLOW_FROM,GROUP_POLICY,
GROUP_ALLOW_FROM} env overrides so both adapters can run in parallel;
normalize allowlist entries (JID/punctuation) to bare wa_id
- whatsapp_cloud: wrap per-message event build in try/except (dedup-marked
wamids would be silently dropped on Meta's batch retry otherwise)
- whatsapp_cloud: validate media_id before URL/filename interpolation,
delete transient .ogg after voice upload, FIFO-cap interactive-button
state dicts and per-chat wamid cache
- whatsapp_common: '# **Title**' headers no longer double-wrap asterisks
- setup wizard: read access token / app secret via getpass on TTYs
- docs: new WHATSAPP_CLOUD_* gating env vars
* fix(gateway): gate oversized Telegram voice/audio before download
Adds a pre-download size check to the Telegram voice and audio inbound
paths. Files that exceed _max_doc_bytes (default 20 MB) are rejected
before get_file() is called, preventing silent OOM-style stalls on large
uploads. A human-readable note is appended to the event text so the
model can explain the limit to the user.
Also extends 403 entitlement detection in recover_with_credential_pool
to cover two additional cases: 'oauth authentication is currently not
allowed for this organization' and Anthropic anthropic_messages-mode 403s,
both of which should be treated as entitlement failures rather than
transient errors.
Tests: 7 new cases in test_telegram_voice_v0_regressions.py covering
the size gate (accept, reject, note text) and the STT-failure notice path.
Salvaged from #40487 (cryptopafi) — cherry-picked the Telegram voice
policy and 403 entitlement fixes; LiveKit/Discord/uv.lock workstreams
left for separate PRs.
* test(gateway): drop orphaned voice tests not backed by this PR
The cherry-picked test file from #40487 included 3 tests for STT-failure
notice and voice-mode (_handle_voice_command 'on' -> voice_only) behavior
that this PR intentionally does NOT salvage (those belong to the LiveKit/
voice-policy workstreams left in #40487). They fail on both this branch
and clean main because the feature code isn't present.
Keep only the 2 tests backed by code actually in this PR:
- test_telegram_audio_size_gate_rejects_oversized_media_before_download
(covers the _telegram_media_size_allowed guard this PR adds)
- test_voice_tts_is_explicit_audio_reply_opt_in (matches current main)
Removed now-unused imports (MessageEvent, MessageType, AsyncMock).
* fix(matrix): isolate room context and inbound dispatch
* test(matrix): cover room isolation and dispatch regressions
* docs(matrix): document room isolation and session scope
* fix(matrix): stabilize CI requirement checks
* test(matrix): isolate mautrix stubs in requirements tests
* fix(matrix): port room-scoped status and resume to slash commands mixin
Move Matrix /status scope output and /resume same-room guards from the
pre-refactor gateway/run.py into gateway/slash_commands.py so PR #18505
foundation behavior survives the upstream god-file decomposition.
Uses i18n keys for Matrix resume/status messages. Preserves upstream
session.py fixes (role_authorized, DM user_id isolation).
* docs(matrix): explain inbound dispatch via handle_sync loop
Document why Hermes uses an explicit sync loop with handle_sync() rather than
client.start(), aligning with upstream #7914 diagnostics while preserving
Hermes background maintenance tasks.
* fix(i18n): add Matrix resume/status keys to all locale catalogs
The Matrix /resume and /status slash-command keys added in the foundation
PR must exist in every supported locale file. tests/agent/test_i18n.py
asserts key and placeholder parity across catalogs.
Non-English locales use English strings as interim placeholders until
community translators can localize them.
* fix(matrix): restore gateway authz for allowed_users; honor config require_mention
Revert the early MATRIX_ALLOWED_USERS gate in _on_room_message so inbound
sender authorization stays in gateway authz like main. Parse require_mention
from config.extra (platforms.matrix / top-level matrix yaml) with env fallback,
matching thread_require_mention and fixing Forge when require_mention is set
only in profile config.yaml.
* fix(matrix): harden status scope and allowlisted DMs
* fix(matrix): use session store lookup for resume scope
A long-lived Baileys bridge survives gateway restarts AND hermes update:
connect() adopted any bridge already listening with status connected, and
disconnect() only kills bridges the adapter spawned itself. Users who
updated to get inbound media support kept talking to a bridge process
serving months-old bridge.js — images and voice notes still arrived as
placeholders with no cached file path (refs #19105 follow-up reports).
Three fixes in the same stale-bridge class:
- Staleness handshake: bridge.js reports a sha256 self-hash in /health
(scriptHash); connect() compares it against bridge.js on disk and
restarts the bridge on mismatch. Pre-handshake bridges report no hash
and are treated as stale, so every existing stale bridge gets recycled
exactly once on the next gateway start.
- npm dep refresh: deps reinstall when package.json changes (stamp file
in node_modules), not only when node_modules is missing — a Baileys
pin bump now actually lands.
- Cache-dir passthrough: the gateway passes profile-aware
HERMES_{IMAGE,AUDIO,DOCUMENT}_CACHE_DIR to the bridge instead of the
bridge hardcoding ~/.hermes/image_cache etc., fixing media paths under
HERMES_HOME overrides, profiles, and the new cache/ layout.
Follow-up to the salvaged #41264 (Windows watcher): the setsid/bash detached
restart watcher on Linux/macOS inherits _HERMES_GATEWAY=1 the same way, so
the CLI's self-restart loop guard silently refuses 'hermes gateway restart'
and the gateway never comes back. Scrub the marker from the watcher env on
the POSIX branch as well, and extend the setsid test to assert it.
When the agent runs several terminal commands back-to-back, each
progress line repeated the '💻 terminal' header above its fenced code
block, cluttering the progress bubble. Now only the first terminal call
in a streak emits the header; subsequent consecutive terminal calls
render adjacent code blocks. Any other tool (or non-block preview)
resets the streak so the next terminal call gets a fresh header.
Follow-ups on top of the two salvaged GodsBoy commits, all live-validated
against the real Telegram Bot API:
- _edit_overflow_split finalize fallbacks degrade to _strip_mdv2() clean
text instead of putting raw **markdown** markers on screen (salvaged
from PR #43463 minus its format-first sizing — live probes show
Telegram's 4096 limit counts PARSED text, so MarkdownV2 escape
inflation cannot cause MESSAGE_TOO_LONG and sizing against formatted
wire length only causes premature splits and fragment messages).
- Skip the redundant requires-finalize edit after a got_done edit that
split-and-delivered (salvaged from PR #43463): re-finalizing re-splits
the full text into the adopted continuation and duplicates chunks.
- _send_fallback_final only deletes the stale partial message when the
fallback re-sent the COMPLETE final text. When the prefix dedup sent
only the missing tail, the partial IS the head of the answer; deleting
it left users with only the second half of long responses (live-
reproduced: flood-control during a long stream -> head deleted,
ratio 0.54 of content visible). This is the third bug behind the
'Telegram cut messages' reports and was present on main and both PRs.
Follow-ups to #38199/#43354 found in post-merge review:
- Inline CLI memory approval never worked: the per-thread approval callback
was not passed to prompt_dangerous_approval, so the prompt_toolkit
fail-closed guard (#15216) denied every gated foreground write without
showing a prompt. Now invokes the registered callback directly; a crashed
prompt falls back to staging instead of a silent deny.
- Gateway sessions claimed inline support but prompt_dangerous_approval has
no gateway round-trip (that lives in the pending-approval queue), so gated
gateway memory writes hit the input() fallback and denied. Gateway
contexts now stage for /memory pending review.
- /skills pending|approve|reject|diff|approval now works on the gateway
(gateway_config_gate on skills.write_approval), so skills staged from a
messaging session can be reviewed there. Diff output truncated for chat.
- memory_tool validates required params before the gate so invalid writes
are rejected immediately instead of staged and failing at approve time.
- Stale tri-state write_mode docstrings updated to the boolean gate; docs
table corrected (inline prompt is interactive-CLI-only).
- 6 new tests covering the interactive approve/deny/error paths, gateway
staging, skills never-prompt invariant, and pre-gate validation.
Two fixes for the reported Slack thread approval UX:
1. Slack Block Kit approval/confirm sends silently overflowed the
3000-char section-block cap (flat 2900-char truncation + header +
reason), so long execute_code approvals failed with invalid_blocks
and fell back to the plain-text prompt with no buttons. Budget the
command preview against the rendered fixed parts so blocks never
exceed the cap (send_exec_approval + send_slash_confirm).
2. The text fallbacks told users to reply /approve — which Slack blocks
inside threads and Matrix clients reserve client-side. Add a
typed_command_prefix capability flag on BasePlatformAdapter
(default "/"; Slack and Matrix set "!" to match their existing
bang-prefix rewrite) and use it in the shared fallback prompt
builders (exec approval, update prompt, destructive slash confirm,
expensive-model confirm) plus Matrix's reaction-prompt text.
The slash-confirm text-intercept now also accepts bang-prefixed
replies (!always, !cancel) since those keywords aren't registered
commands and the adapters' rewrite doesn't touch them.
Follow-ups on top of #26016's expensive-model guard:
- gateway/slash_commands.py: typed '/model <name>' now routes through the
expensive-model confirmation gate (slash-confirm buttons / text fallback)
instead of bypassing the guard the pickers enforce. Cancel leaves the
session override and --global config untouched.
- telegram/discord/web_server: run expensive_model_warning() via
asyncio.to_thread — it can hit models.dev or a /models endpoint on a
cache miss, which would otherwise block the event loop.
- telegram: picker callback no longer toasts 'Model switched!' when the
switch callback raised (both mm: and mc: paths).
- tests: new tests/gateway/test_model_command_expensive_confirm.py pins
the typed-path gate (prompt, confirm-once, cancel, cheap-model no-op).
Rebased onto current main and re-ported across the restructured
surfaces: model flows now thread confirm_provider/base_url/api_key
through hermes_cli/model_setup_flows.py, the Discord picker lives in
plugins/platforms/discord/adapter.py, and the web dashboard picker
applies chat-mode switches via config.set so the expensive-model
confirmation can ride the response.

Compare source.role_authorized with 'is True' so a MagicMock source
(test fixtures that build bare runners via object.__new__) doesn't
auto-truthy through the gate. The real SessionSource field is a bool,
so production behavior is unchanged. Fixes test_signal_in_allowlist_maps.
DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES was checked by the Discord adapter (_is_allowed_user)
but gateway._is_user_authorized only read DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS, so
role-authorized users were rejected with "Unauthorized user" at the
gateway layer despite passing the adapter gate.
- Add role_authorized: bool = False to SessionSource
- Add role_authorized param to build_source (base.py)
- Compute _role_authorized in on_message when user passes via role not user ID
- Thread _role_authorized through _handle_message -> build_source
- Check source.role_authorized early in _is_user_authorized (run.py)
Fixes#33952
The voice inactivity timer (VOICE_TIMEOUT) only counted the bot's OWN audio
playback as activity. Under /voice off (text-only replies, but still in the
channel — leaving is /voice leave) nothing ever reset it, so every 300s the bot
disconnected and spammed "Left voice channel (inactivity timeout)."
The adapter now learns the live voice-reply mode via a getter wired from run.py
and skips the auto-disconnect while mode is off. It also resets the timer when a
user actually speaks to the bot, so an active listener (incl. voice-on
text-only sessions that never play audio) isn't dropped mid-conversation.
The shipped tri-state write_mode (on|off|approve) conflated two concepts —
whether writes are enabled and whether they're gated — so 'on' (writes flow
freely, gate inactive) read like 'gating is on'. Replace it with a single
clear boolean gate that defaults off.
memory.write_approval / skills.write_approval:
false (default) — write freely; the approval gate is off (pre-gate behaviour)
true — require approval: memory foreground prompts inline, memory
background-review + all skill writes stage for review
The old 'off = block all writes' mode is dropped; memory_enabled: false already
disables memory entirely, so a third 'block' state was redundant.
- tools/write_approval.py: get_write_mode/MODE_* → write_approval_enabled() bool;
evaluate_gate() loses the config-driven 'blocked' path (blocked now only comes
from an interactive user denial).
- tools/memory_tool.py, tools/skill_manager_tool.py: comment + behaviour follow.
- hermes_cli/config.py: memory/skills write_mode → write_approval (False);
_config_version 28→29 with a 28→29 migration that renames any persisted
write_mode (approve→true, on/off/unset→false) and drops the old key.
- slash commands: '/memory|/skills mode <on|off|approve>' → 'approval <on|off>'
('mode' kept as a back-compat alias); set_mode_fn callback now takes a bool.
- write_approval_commands.py, cli_commands_mixin.py, gateway/slash_commands.py,
commands.py: handlers + registry args/subcommands updated.
- docs + tests rewritten for the boolean model; added migration tests.
## What does this PR do?
The voice-during-active-run feature (#41984) changed
`_enrich_message_with_transcription` so that it returns a
`(enriched_text, successful_transcripts)` tuple instead of a bare string,
which lets callers echo the raw transcript back to the user. The signature
and every other return path were updated to match, but one branch was
missed: when a successfully transcribed clip arrives with the Discord
"empty content" placeholder as its caption, the method still returned the
prefix string on its own. All four call sites unpack the result with
`text, transcripts = await self._enrich_message_with_transcription(...)`,
so that path raised `ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)`
and the inbound voice message was dropped instead of reaching the agent.
This is a real user-facing path rather than a corner case: a Discord voice
note sent without a caption is delivered as exactly that placeholder, so a
captionless voice message that transcribed correctly would crash the
handler precisely when transcription had worked. The fix returns the
proper tuple from that branch so the placeholder is still stripped while
the transcripts continue to flow back to the caller for the echo.

## Type of Change
- [x] 🐛 Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
- [ ] ✨ New feature (non-breaking change that adds functionality)
- [ ] 🔒 Security fix
- [ ] 📝 Documentation update
- [ ] ✅ Tests (adding or improving test coverage)
- [ ] ♻️ Refactor (no behavior change)
- [ ] 🎯 New skill (bundled or hub)
## Changes Made
- `gateway/run.py`: in `_enrich_message_with_transcription`, return
`(prefix, successful_transcripts)` instead of a bare `prefix` from the
empty-content-placeholder branch, so the contract matches the signature
and the other return paths.
- `tests/gateway/test_stt_config.py`: add
`test_enrich_message_with_transcription_returns_tuple_for_empty_content_placeholder`,
which drives a successful transcription with the placeholder caption and
asserts the placeholder is stripped while the transcript is still returned.
## How to Test
1. Check out `main` and run the new test — it fails with
`ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)`, reproducing the
crash a captionless Discord voice note would trigger.
2. Apply this change and re-run
`pytest tests/gateway/test_stt_config.py -q` — all tests pass.
3. `ruff check gateway/run.py tests/gateway/test_stt_config.py` and
`python scripts/check-windows-footguns.py gateway/run.py
tests/gateway/test_stt_config.py` both pass.

Adds memory.write_mode and skills.write_mode (on|off|approve), applied to
both foreground turns and the background self-improvement review fork — the
source of the unprompted 'wrong assumption' saves users reported.
- on (default): write freely, unchanged behaviour
- off: never write; the tool returns a clean disabled result
- approve: don't commit. Memory foreground writes prompt inline (small,
reviewable in a chat bubble); background memory writes and ALL skill writes
stage to a pending store instead (a SKILL.md is too large to review inline,
and a daemon thread can't block on a prompt)
Review staged writes from CLI or any messaging platform:
/memory pending|approve|reject|mode
/skills pending|approve|reject|diff|mode
Skill review respects the size asymmetry: inline you see a one-line gist;
the full unified diff stays out-of-band (/skills diff, dashboard, or the
staged JSON file).
New: tools/write_approval.py (gate + pending store), hermes_cli/
write_approval_commands.py (shared CLI+gateway handlers). Gates wired at the
single entry points memory_tool() and skill_manage(), using the existing
write-origin ContextVar to distinguish foreground from background_review.
* fix(gateway): auto-start after container restart via planned-stop marker
On Docker (s6-overlay), the gateway runs as a dynamically-registered s6
service. When the container stops/restarts/upgrades, s6 sends the gateway
a plain SIGTERM. The shutdown path (_stop_impl) ended with an
unconditional _update_runtime_status("stopped"), persisting
gateway_state=stopped to the volume. container_boot.py reads that on the
next boot and only auto-starts gateways whose last state was "running"
(_AUTOSTART_STATES) — so after a routine `docker compose up
--force-recreate` the gateway stays down and messaging channels silently
go dark, with no error surfaced (issue #42675).
The codebase already distinguishes intentional stops from unexpected
signals via the planned-stop marker (write_planned_stop_marker /
consume_planned_stop_marker_for_self): `hermes gateway stop`,
systemd/launchd ExecStop, and Ctrl+C write a marker before signalling,
so the handler classifies them as planned. An unmarked SIGTERM
(container/s6 restart, OOM, bare kill) is signal-initiated.
This wires that existing classification through to the state persist,
rather than adding unreliable signal-source inference:
- run.py: GatewayRunner._signal_initiated_shutdown, set in
shutdown_signal_handler's unmarked-signal branch. In _stop_impl, a
signal-initiated (non-restart) teardown now persists "running" instead
of "stopped" — preserving the operator's run-intent and overwriting the
mid-shutdown "draining" marker so _AUTOSTART_STATES matches on reboot.
Operator stops and restarts persist "stopped" as before.
- service_manager.py: S6ServiceManager.stop() now writes the planned-stop
marker for the supervised PID (read from s6-svstat) before `s6-svc -d`,
so an in-container `hermes gateway stop` is correctly classified as
intentional (parity with the systemd/launchd/host stop paths, which
already mark). Best-effort: a marker-write failure falls back to the
safe signal-initiated path.
Tests: shutdown persist-decision table (signal→running, operator→stopped,
restart→stopped), s6 stop marker write + svstat PID parse + failure
tolerance. The signal→running and s6-marker tests fail without the
respective source change. Verified end-to-end against a container built
from this branch: an unmarked SIGTERM to the live gateway leaves
gateway_state=running (shutdown-context log confirms signal path);
existing real container-restart suite still green.
* docs(docker): clarify gateway autostart distinguishes operator-stop from container-kill
The per-profile-supervision section described the autostart-across-restart
contract as "running gateways come back, stopped stay stopped" without
spelling out what records 'stopped'. That contract was the source of
#42675 confusion: users expected a restart to bring the gateway back and
it didn't. With the write-side fix, only an explicit `hermes gateway stop`
records 'stopped'; container/s6 restart SIGTERMs (incl. image upgrades and
unexpected exits) leave the state 'running' so the gateway auto-starts.
Make that distinction explicit in both the multi-profile and
per-profile-supervision sections.
* test(docker): real-restart autostart E2E for #42675
Adds test_live_gateway_autostarts_after_real_restart_without_manual_state_stamp:
a live s6-supervised gateway is killed by an actual `docker restart`
SIGTERM (no manual gateway_state stamp, no planned-stop marker) and must
auto-start on the next boot. Exercises the WRITE side of the fix that the
existing stamp-based tests bypass.
Verified to FAIL against an origin/main image (reconciler logs
prior_state=stopped action=registered — the #42675 bug) and PASS against
the fixed image (prior_state=running action=started).
The markdown code-block change rendered args['command'] in full in both
verbose AND non-verbose (all/new) modes, so a long or multi-line terminal
command bypassed the tool_preview_length cap (default 40) and rendered as
a huge block. Non-verbose now collapses to a single line capped at the
preview length while keeping the fence; verbose keeps the full command.
image_generate returns its artifact as JSON ({"image": "/abs/path.png"})
with no MEDIA: tag, so the gateway auto-append path (which only recognized
text_to_speech MEDIA: tags) never delivered it — image delivery silently
depended on the model restating the path in its reply. Add image_generate to
the producer allowlist and extract the local path from its JSON result
(host_image > image > agent_visible_image), reusing the existing
extension-anchored matcher and history-dedupe so remote URLs, unknown
extensions, failures, and already-sent paths are rejected.
Closes the remaining unfixed path from #19105.
Terminal tool progress on markdown-capable gateways (Telegram, Slack,
Discord, WhatsApp, Matrix, Weixin, Feishu) renders the full command in a
fenced code block again, in all/new AND verbose modes — gated on the
adapter's supports_code_blocks capability. Plain-text platforms keep the
short truncated preview.
No language tag is emitted: Slack mrkdwn renders a '```bash' fence with
'bash' as a literal first code line, so a bare '```' fence is used, which
renders correctly on every platform that supports blocks.
This restores the #41215 feature (removed in #41950 due to the command
showing in group chats) as the default. For a personal assistant the
command display is desired; the group-chat concern is a preference, not a
vulnerability.
When edit_message(finalize=True) fails with a MarkdownV2 parse error,
the silent fallback previously sent raw content with escape sequences.
Now it logs the error and strips markdown formatting via _strip_mdv2()
for clean plain-text fallback.
Also fixes _strip_mdv2 to handle standard markdown bold (\*\*text\*\*)
before MarkdownV2 bold (\*text\*), preventing half-stripped asterisks.
Refs: #41955, #41732
When a platform adapter sets REQUIRES_EDIT_FINALIZE=True (e.g.
TelegramAdapter), tool progress edits now pass finalize=True so
format_message() is applied before sending to the platform.
Previously, the initial send() formatted the message correctly via
MarkdownV2, but subsequent edit_message() calls skipped formatting
(finalize=False), causing raw markdown (e.g. triple backticks for
bash code blocks) to render as plain text on Telegram.
Refs: #41955, #41732
#41215 rendered a terminal tool call as a native ```bash fenced block on
markdown platforms (Telegram, WhatsApp, Slack, and others), showing the full
command with no truncation, in both all/new and verbose modes. That posted
complete shell commands (heredocs, internal paths, destructive commands) into
the chat before the final answer, visible to everyone in it.
This restores the prior behavior: terminal progress shows the short, truncated
preview line that every other tool already uses, capped at tool_preview_length.
The supports_code_blocks capability flag is left in place for future use.
CLI/TUI rendering is a separate path and was unaffected.
Adds a regression test asserting terminal progress renders as a truncated
preview, not a fenced bash block, even on a markdown-capable gateway.
Fixes#41955
When the agent has its own SessionDB reference (_session_db is not None),
_flush_messages_to_session_db() persists user messages to SQLite during the
agent run. Two gateway fallback paths also wrote the same user message
without skip_db=True, creating duplicate entries in state.db:
1. agent_failed_early path (transient 429/timeout failures)
2. not-new-messages path (history_offset >= len(messages) edge case)
Move agent_persisted flag definition to before the if/elif/else block so
all paths can use it, and pass skip_db=agent_persisted to every fallback
append_to_transcript() call.
Fixes#42039
Lift the 4 inbound-message authorization methods out of GatewayRunner into
gateway/authz_mixin.py:GatewayAuthorizationMixin. Behavior-neutral; gateway/run.py
16200 -> 15812 LOC.
Methods moved (~389 LOC): _is_user_authorized, _get_unauthorized_dm_behavior,
_adapter_dm_policy, _adapter_enforces_own_access_policy. The two adapter-policy
helpers are private to _is_user_authorized, so the cluster is fully self-contained
(zero outside-cluster self.method calls after the lift). All self.* calls resolve
unchanged via the MRO (GatewayRunner(GatewayAuthorizationMixin, ...)).
Import split: 6 neutral deps (os, Optional, Platform, SessionSource, the two
whatsapp_identity helpers) at the mixin module top; the module-level logger is
imported lazily inside _is_user_authorized (from gateway.run import logger) so
the mixin never imports gateway.run at module scope -> no cycle. The lazy import
preserves the exact logger name (gateway.run) so log records are unchanged.
_evict_cached_agent (the chokepoint for /new, /model, /undo, session
resets — 17 call sites) only popped the cache entry, dropping the
AIAgent reference without releasing its httpx client pool. AIAgent
holds reference cycles (callbacks, tool state) so CPython refcounting
does not free the client promptly; under steady gateway traffic the
held sockets + buffers accumulate and RSS climbs (the leak class behind
Now the chokepoint pops AND schedules a soft release_clients() on a
daemon thread (mirrors the cap-enforcer / idle-sweeper). Soft release
frees the client pool + per-turn child subagents but preserves the
session's terminal sandbox / browser / bg processes for resumption.
Mid-turn agents are skipped so a running request is never torn down.
Also fixes the no-lock branch which previously never popped at all.
Long-lived gateways under heavy cron/build workloads grow steadily (~18 MB/hr
post-phantom-dispatch-fix) and eventually need a restart-or-OOM. Four retention
sites, all confirmed live on current main:
1. _evict_cached_agent() (/model, /reasoning, codex-runtime, /undo, etc.) popped
the cache entry without releasing the agent's OpenAI client, httpx transport,
SSL context, or conversation history. Only /new cleaned up first. Now releases
clients on a daemon thread, matching _enforce_agent_cache_cap.
2. _release_evicted_agent_soft() now clears _session_messages after
release_clients() — tool outputs (file reads, terminal output, search results)
can be tens of MB per 100+-tool-call session; the list is rebuilt from
persisted session JSON on resume, so dropping it on soft eviction is safe.
3. The session-expiry watcher (permanent finalization) now drops the session's
per-session control dicts (_session_model_overrides, _session_reasoning_overrides,
_pending_approvals, _update_prompt_pending, _pending_model_notes). These leaked
one entry per session per gateway lifetime. NOTE: this is the session-finalize
path, NOT idle agent-cache eviction — an idle-evicted session is still alive and
rebuilds its agent from these overrides, so pruning them there would silently
reset a user's /model choice.
4. _tool_defs_cache is now bounded (_TOOL_DEFS_CACHE_MAX=8) with oldest-first
eviction instead of growing unboundedly across the distinct toolset/config
fingerprints a gateway sees over its lifetime.
Salvaged from #25318 by Michael Steuer (@mssteuer); fix 3 redirected from the
idle-sweep to the session-finalize lifecycle, magic number 8 lifted to a named
constant, test ported.

Salvaged from #6600 (@kristianvast) — re-scoped to the voice half only and
rebased onto current main. The cascading-interrupt hang half of the original
PR landed independently in dd0d1222a, so this carries ONLY Problem 1.
When a voice/audio message arrives while the agent is busy on the same
session, it hit the interrupt path with empty text because STT only ran after
the running-agent guard — the voice was effectively lost. Now we transcribe
audio BEFORE signaling the agent (and on the fresh-message path), echo the raw
transcript back to the user (🎙️), and _enrich_message_with_transcription
returns (text, transcripts) so callers can echo. A new
_dequeue_pending_with_transcription drives the post-agent drain the same way.
Reapplied onto _prepare_inbound_message_text (inbound enrichment was extracted
from the inline dispatch block since the original PR).

The in-session slash commands (/model, /reset, /usage, /compress, /voice, ...)
— 42 _handle_*_command handlers, ~3,200 LOC — move out of gateway/run.py into a
mixin GatewayRunner inherits. self._handle_*_command dispatch + all test
references resolve unchanged via the MRO.
Neutral deps (MessageEvent, EphemeralReply, Platform, t, cfg_get, atomic_*_write,
account-usage helpers, stdlib) imported at the mixin top level. The ~10 run.py-
internal helpers (_hermes_home, _load_gateway_config, _resolve_gateway_model,
_AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL, ...) imported lazily inside the handlers that need them
to avoid an import cycle.
gateway/run.py 19157 -> 15870 LOC; GatewayRunner direct methods 214 -> 172.
Behavior-neutral: voice/update/model/compress command test suites pass; all 42
resolve to the mixin via MRO.
When --replace force-kills an unresponsive old gateway, SIGKILL can fail
to reap it (uninterruptible sleep, zombie-reaping parent, etc.). The old
code unconditionally cleared the PID file and scoped locks and started a
fresh instance anyway, leaving two live gateways fighting over the same
bot token — a duplicate-gateway failure mode of #19471.
Re-verify the process is actually gone (via the Windows-safe _pid_exists
helper) after the force-kill; if it still appears alive, clear the
takeover marker and abort the replacement instead of duplicating.

gateway/run.py is the largest god file (20k LOC, GatewayRunner with 220
methods). This lifts the cohesive kanban-watcher cluster — _kanban_notifier_watcher,
_kanban_dispatcher_watcher, _kanban_advance/unsub/rewind, _deliver_kanban_artifacts
(~1,035 LOC, 6 methods) — into gateway/kanban_watchers.py as a mixin that
GatewayRunner inherits.
Mixin (not free functions) because the methods use only self state: inheriting
keeps every self._kanban_* call site working unchanged via the MRO, making this
a behavior-neutral move. The methods' lazy imports (_kb, _decomp, _load_config,
Platform) travel with them; the mixin needs only stdlib + a matching
logging.getLogger('gateway.run').
run.py 20187 -> 19157 LOC; GatewayRunner direct methods 220 -> 214.
Behavior-neutral: gateway test suite 6582 passed / 0 failed; start() still wires
both watchers via self._kanban_*; MRO resolves all 6 to the mixin. One test
(corrupt-board quarantine retry) keyed its time-travel mock on the caller's
filename being gateway/run.py — updated to also accept gateway/kanban_watchers.py.
Establishes the mixin-extraction pattern for further GatewayRunner decomposition
(the 2406-LOC _run_agent and 1164-LOC _handle_message remain, but their callback
closures need a context-object redesign — deferred).
Session-scoped /model and /reasoning overrides were silently lost on
Telegram DM/forum topics and after compression session splits (#30479).
Root cause: _handle_message_with_agent rewrites source.thread_id via
_recover_telegram_topic_thread_id (lobby/stripped reply -> the user's
bound topic) before deriving the session key. The /model and /reasoning
handlers derived their override key from the raw inbound event.source,
skipping that recovery, so the override was stored under one key and the
next message turn read a different key.
Fix: add _normalize_source_for_session_key (applies the same recovery a
message turn does) and use it in both handlers before deriving the key.
session_id rotation on compression was never the cause — overrides are
keyed by the durable session_key; the split path preserves it.

The conflict-retry path called asyncio.get_event_loop() to reschedule
itself when a retry's start_polling raised. On Python 3.11+ (our floor)
that raises 'RuntimeError: There is no current event loop in thread
MainThread' when no loop is attached to the thread, which is what
happens when PTB dispatches this error callback. The retry never gets
scheduled, the adapter goes silent-but-alive, and gateway --replace
keeps spawning fresh instances that hit the same wall — the crash loop
reported in #19471 (worse under multi-profile, where two bots hold the
same conflict open).
We are inside a coroutine here, so asyncio.get_running_loop() is the
correct, guaranteed-valid replacement. Only get_event_loop() call in
any platform adapter, so no sibling sites.
Fixes#19471
build_session_key collapsed every DM that arrived without a chat_id into
one shared 'agent:main:<platform>:dm' key. A single cached AIAgent then
served multiple users' conversations, bleeding history across senders.
DMs now fall back to the sender's user_id_alt/user_id (mirroring the
group-path participant precedence and the telegram auth-path fallback)
before the bare per-platform sink. Telegram's normal event path always
sets chat_id, so this hardens the synthetic-source / non-standard-adapter
paths that don't.
The WeChat iLink typing ticket has a 600-second TTL. When a long-running
session exceeds that window, the cached ticket evicts from TypingTicketCache.
Both send_typing and stop_typing silently returned early when the ticket was
None, meaning the TYPING_STOP=2 signal was never sent to iLink. The WeChat
client then showed the typing indicator indefinitely.
Fix: add _ensure_typing_ticket() that transparently refreshes the ticket
via getConfig when the cached one has expired or is missing. Both send_typing
and stop_typing now call this method instead of silently no-oping.
Fixes#38085
Two findings from Copilot's review on #15464, both addressed:
1. ``event.get("thread_ts")`` truthy vs
``event_thread_ts != ts``: the new channel branch treated ANY
truthy ``thread_ts`` as a real thread reply, but three lines below
``is_thread_reply`` is defined with the stricter
``event_thread_ts and event_thread_ts != ts`` invariant. If Slack
ever ships a payload where ``thread_ts == ts`` on a thread root,
the stricter check would treat it as a top-level message for the
``is_thread_reply`` path but as a thread reply for session keying
— divergent behaviour. Aligned this branch to the same
``and event_thread_ts_raw != ts`` invariant.
2. ``test_top_level_reply_to_id_stays_none_when_shared`` docstring
had the ternary logic backwards ("None != ts → reply_to_message_id
IS set"). The code reads
``reply_to_message_id = thread_ts if thread_ts != ts else None`` —
with ``thread_ts = None``, the condition is True so the expression
evaluates to ``thread_ts`` itself (None), meaning the reply stays
un-threaded. The test asserted the correct end-state; only the
explanatory docstring was wrong. Rewrote the docstring to match
the actual code flow, with the note that Copilot caught the
reversal.
7/7 tests still pass. No behaviour change for the existing
test_thread_reply_scopes_by_thread_even_when_shared case because
``event_thread_ts_raw = "1700000000.000000"`` and ``ts =
"1700000000.000005"`` are distinct — the new
``!= ts`` guard is a no-op there.

Top-level Slack channel messages previously fell back to the message's
own ``ts`` as a synthetic ``thread_ts``:
thread_ts = event.get("thread_ts") or ts # ts fallback for channels
That value flows into ``build_source(thread_id=thread_ts)`` at
line 1247. The gateway session store keys sessions by
``(platform, channel_id, thread_id)``, so every top-level channel
message ended up on a unique session. Operators who set
``reply_in_thread: false`` in ``config.yaml`` expected all top-level
channel messages to share one session (the whole point of that flag)
— instead each one spawned a fresh conversation with no context
carry-over.
### Fix
Three explicit cases in the channel branch:
| event.thread_ts | reply_in_thread | thread_ts for session keying |
|---|---|---|
| non-null (real thread reply) | either | event.thread_ts |
| null (top-level) | true (default) | ts (legacy: own-thread sessions) |
| null (top-level) | false | **None** (shared channel session) |
The outbound-reply gate at line 1264 (``reply_to_message_id =
thread_ts if thread_ts != ts else None``) still works correctly in
all three cases without further changes: ``None != ts`` is True, so
shared-channel top-level messages don't get their reply threaded
either — matching the operator's ``reply_in_thread=false`` intent
end-to-end.
Genuine thread replies still scope per-thread under both modes so
multi-person threaded conversations can't collide with unrelated
channel chatter.
### Tests (7 new in ``tests/gateway/test_slack_channel_session_scope.py``)
All drive the real ``SlackAdapter._handle_slack_message`` code path
(not a re-implementation) via the standard pytest fixture pattern
used by ``tests/gateway/test_slack.py``. Messages @mention the bot
so the mention gate doesn't drop them — the tests are specifically
about what happens once the handler decides to emit a ``MessageEvent``.
* ``TestChannelSessionScopeDefault`` (2 cases):
- Explicit ``reply_in_thread: true`` keeps ``thread_id = ts``
(legacy behaviour — regression guard)
- Unset config behaves like ``reply_in_thread: true`` (pins the
default)
* ``TestChannelSessionScopeShared`` (3 cases):
- ``reply_in_thread: false`` + top-level → ``thread_id is None``
(the #15421 bug 1 fix)
- ``reply_to_message_id is None`` in the same case (no threaded
outbound reply)
- Genuine thread reply still scopes per-thread when shared mode is
on — only TOP-LEVEL messages collapse to the channel session
* ``TestThreadReplyAlwaysScopesByThread`` (2 parametrised cases):
- Thread replies get ``thread_id = event.thread_ts`` regardless of
``reply_in_thread`` — critical invariant for multi-thread
channels; a regression here would leak per-thread context across
threads
**Regression guard verified**: reverted the else-branch to the legacy
``thread_ts = event.get("thread_ts") or ts`` one-liner;
``test_top_level_maps_to_none_when_reply_in_thread_false`` correctly
failed (asserts ``thread_id is None`` but got ``"1700000000.000003"``).
Restored → 182 slack tests pass (175 existing + 7 new).
Scope: this fixes#15421 bug 1 only. Bug 2 (sessions.json not
persisting across compression) lives elsewhere in the session
manager and is left for a separate diff.

Adds thread_id and chat_type to the agent:start/end plugin hook context
(via getattr with safe defaults; both are real `source` attrs already used
in gateway/run.py). agent:end inherits them via **hook_ctx. Purely additive

Tool-progress now shows a terminal command in a ```bash fenced block —
full command, no surrounding quotes, no label, no 40-char truncation —
instead of the noisy `terminal: "cmd…"` line, on every platform that
renders markdown code blocks (Telegram, Slack, Matrix, WhatsApp, Feishu,
Weixin, Discord). Plain-text platforms keep the compact preview line.
Gated on a new `BasePlatformAdapter.supports_code_blocks` capability
(default False) rather than a hardcoded platform list, so plugin adapters
(Discord lives in plugins/platforms/) opt in by setting the flag. Applies
to both all/new and verbose progress modes, with a safe fallback when the
command arg is missing or blank.
The agent-facing cronjob tool scans the user prompt with _scan_cron_prompt()
before creating/updating a job (tools/cronjob_tools.py); the REST cron
endpoints (POST /api/jobs, PATCH /api/jobs/{id}) validated length but not
content. This adds the same scan to both handlers so an exfiltration/injection
prompt is rejected the same way regardless of which surface created the job.
NOT a security boundary, defense-in-depth / parity only: the REST cron
endpoints are authenticated (every handler runs _check_auth, and connect()
refuses to start without API_SERVER_KEY), and _scan_cron_prompt is a documented
in-process heuristic, not a containment boundary (SECURITY.md 3.2).
Raised externally via GHSA-fr3q-rjg3-x6mf (DNS-rebinding pre-auth RCE). The
report's load-bearing 'no auth by default' premise was already closed three
weeks after it was filed by the API_SERVER_KEY-required guard (commit
1a9ef8314); this lands the create/update prompt-validation parity the report
also pointed at. Scanner imported defensively so a missing scanner cannot
disable the cron REST API.
* feat(onboarding): opt-in structured profile-build path on first contact
On a user's very first gateway message, Hermes now optionally offers to
build a short profile of them — then, only with consent, gathers durable
facts and persists them to the user-profile memory store (memory tool,
target="user") so future sessions start already knowing who they are.
Inspired by Poke's zero-input onboarding, but consent-first by design:
- The agent OFFERS, never assumes. Declining stops it immediately.
- Before ANY external lookup it states what it will look up and asks.
- It never reads connected accounts (email/calendar) silently — the
exact privacy concern that made naive implementations feel invasive.
Wiring reuses existing infrastructure end-to-end:
- gateway/run.py first-message hook (was a plain self-intro) now swaps in
the profile-build directive when enabled and not yet offered.
- agent/onboarding.py gains profile_build_mode()/profile_build_directive()
+ PROFILE_BUILD_FLAG, latched once via the existing onboarding.seen
mechanism so the offer fires at most once per install.
- config default onboarding.profile_build: "ask" (set "off" to disable).
Added to an existing section, so no _config_version bump needed.
No new storage layer, no new injection path, no prompt-cache impact.
* fix(dashboard): fold onboarding into agent tab to avoid 1-field category
onboarding.profile_build is the only schema-surfaced onboarding field
(onboarding.seen is an internal latch dict), so the dashboard CONFIG_SCHEMA
single-field-category invariant rejected it. Merge onboarding -> agent like
the other small categories.
SIMPLEX_ALLOWED_USERS silently denied every contact when operators
listed display names instead of numeric contactIds. The SimpleX UI
never surfaces the numeric id, so display names are what operators
naturally put in the env var. _is_user_authorized only compared
source.user_id (the contactId), so the allowlist never matched.
Expand check_ids to include source.user_name for the simplex platform,
mirroring the existing WhatsApp phone-LID aliasing pattern. Adds doc +
setup-prompt clarification and three regression tests.
Salvaged from PR #40393. Adds manishbyatroy to release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
Persist the inbound user turn before provider/tool execution so a crash
before run_conversation() (e.g. provider/httpx client init failure) keeps
the inbound message in the transcript. Repair stale/missing SSL_CERT_FILE
state on gateway startup, and avoid duplicate gateway fallback writes.
subprocess.run() and proc.wait() without timeout can hang indefinitely
if the child process becomes unresponsive. This blocks the calling
thread forever.
Fixed locations:
- tools/transcription_tools.py: ffmpeg conversion (timeout=300) and
user-configured STT commands with shell=True (timeout=300)
- gateway/run.py: helper script proc.wait() (timeout=3600)
Not fixed:
- agent/anthropic_adapter.py: interactive 'claude setup-token' —
user-driven, timeout would be inappropriate
On Windows with non-UTF-8 console encodings (e.g. cp949, cp1252),
StreamHandler emits raise UnicodeEncodeError when log messages contain
characters outside the console codepage — such as the em-dash (U+2014)
in the session hygiene message.
This crashed the gateway process silently, leaving no diagnostic output.
Fix: add _safe_stderr() helper that wraps sys.stderr in a TextIOWrapper
with encoding='utf-8' and errors='replace' when the console encoding
is not UTF-8. Applied to both:
- hermes_logging.py setup_verbose_logging() stderr handler
- gateway/run.py optional stderr handler
The wrapper ensures log lines are never lost — un-encodable characters
are replaced with '?' instead of crashing the process.
Fixes#40432
_read_events() returned normally when self._ws was closed-but-non-None
(the while-condition is false on entry). _listen_loop treats a normal
return as a clean read, resets backoff to 0, and immediately retries —
a tight busy-loop pinning CPU. Raising on entry routes it through the
reconnect/backoff path instead.

Home Assistant is a bundled plugin now (#40709) and declares
allow_update_command=True on its PlatformEntry. The registry fallback
in _handle_update_command already covers it, so the frozenset entry is
a redundant double-allow — same cleanup #40711 did for Discord and
Mattermost. Adds a registry-fallback test mirroring the existing
discord/mattermost cases.
`gateway/run.py::_UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS` was a hardcoded frozenset
listing every messaging platform allowed to invoke the `/update` slash
command. Plugin-migrated platforms (currently Discord and Mattermost,
soon also Home Assistant via #32500) declare `allow_update_command=True`
on their `PlatformEntry`, and `_handle_update_command` already falls
back to the registry when a platform isn't in the frozenset. The result
was a silent redundancy: those entries said "allowed" twice, and the
registry flag was a no-op for them in practice.
- Removed `Platform.DISCORD` and `Platform.MATTERMOST` from the frozenset.
- Updated the docstring to make the split explicit (built-ins live in
the frozenset; plugins use `allow_update_command` on the registry entry).
The remaining frozenset entries are all still built-in platforms living
under `gateway/platforms/` today. Future plugin migrations should drop
their entry from the frozenset as part of the migration PR (or in a
sibling chore PR like this one).
Added a `TestUpdateCommandPlatformGate` test class that pins down all
three branches of the gate so future changes don't silently regress:
- Programmatic interfaces (`Platform.WEBHOOK`, `Platform.API_SERVER`)
must remain blocked.
- Plugin-migrated platforms (Discord, Mattermost) must pass via the
registry fallback.
- Built-in platforms in the hardcoded frozenset (Telegram) must
still pass without needing the registry.
The gate previously had zero direct test coverage — its only existing
coverage was `test_no_adapter_for_platform` which exercised a different
code path.
Move gateway/platforms/homeassistant.py into plugins/platforms/homeassistant/
following the same shape as the Mattermost and Discord migrations.
- Adapter file is renamed via git mv (history is preserved).
- register() exposes the platform via the plugin system instead of the
hardcoded Platform.HOMEASSISTANT elif in gateway/run.py::build_adapter().
- _standalone_send() replaces the legacy _send_homeassistant() helper in
tools/send_message_tool.py. Out-of-process cron delivery
(deliver=homeassistant from a cron process not co-located with the
gateway) now flows through the registry's standalone_sender_fn path
instead of the hardcoded elif.
- _is_connected() probes HASS_TOKEN via hermes_cli.gateway.get_env_value
so existing connected-platform checks behave identically.
The HASS_TOKEN / HASS_URL env-to-PlatformConfig seeding in
gateway/config.py stays in core — same pattern bluebubbles, mattermost,
and discord migrations followed. No setup_fn or apply_yaml_config_fn is
registered because Home Assistant has no _setup_homeassistant wizard in
hermes_cli/setup.py and no homeassistant: YAML block in config.yaml today;
setup runs through the existing hermes_cli/tools_config.py toolset wizard.
Test imports were rewritten across tests/gateway/test_homeassistant.py,
tests/integration/test_ha_integration.py, and
tests/tools/test_send_message_missing_platforms.py; the legacy
(token, extra, chat_id, message)-shaped _send_homeassistant call site is
preserved via a small SimpleNamespace shim in
test_send_message_missing_platforms.py (same approach used when
mattermost moved).
- Focused HA suites (64 tests across the three rewritten files) pass.
- Broader gateway/cron sweep produces 10 failures identical to main
baseline (telegram approval/model-picker xdist isolation flakes,
wecom_callback defusedxml issue, cron script_timeout fixture issue).
Zero net new failures.
* fix: respect disabled auto-compaction on context overflow
Port from anomalyco/opencode#30749.
When compression.enabled is false, NO automatic compaction trigger may
fire. The proactive token-threshold paths (preflight + post-response
should_compress gate) already honoured the setting, but the three
provider-overflow recovery paths in the agent loop — long-context-tier
429, 413 payload-too-large, and context-overflow — called
_compress_context() unconditionally, silently compressing and rotating
the session against the user's explicit choice.
Add a single guard at the top of the overflow-recovery dispatch: when
compression is disabled and the error is one of those three overflow
classes, surface a terminal error (compaction_disabled: True) telling the
user to /compress manually, /new, switch to a larger-context model, or
reduce attachments. Manual /compress (force=True) is unaffected — it never
enters this loop.
Tests: new TestOverflowWithCompactionDisabled (413 + 400 overflow don't
compress when disabled; control case still compresses when enabled).
Existing overflow-recovery tests updated to enable compaction explicitly
(they verify the recovery fires); fixture defaults flipped to True to
match production (compression.enabled defaults to True).
* fix(gateway): plain text while busy interrupts by default again
busy_input_mode (default 'interrupt') was advertised as the busy-behavior
knob, but a second knob added in 7abd62719 — busy_text_mode, defaulting to
'queue' — short-circuited every plain TEXT message before busy_input_mode
was consulted. Result: plain follow-ups silently queued instead of
interrupting, even with busy_input_mode left at its 'interrupt' default
(regression #38390, silent-queue #31588).
Collapse to one source of truth: busy_input_mode drives text handling.
busy_text_mode is kept only as a legacy explicit override for back-compat
(existing queue setups keep working); when unset it follows busy_input_mode.
All default fallbacks flipped queue->interrupt. The debounce mechanism is
preserved and now keyed off the resolved mode.
Fixes#38390, #31588.
* feat(tui): HERMES_DEV_CREDITS live-spend dev readout (L0 tracer for usage-aware credits)
L0 of the usage-aware-credits feature: a dev-only, env-gated tracer that
exercises the real header -> CreditsState -> TUI pipe end-to-end behind
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS, de-risking the L1/L5 build before the notice policy exists.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: CreditsState + parse_credits_headers (headers are
strings -> paid_access via == "true", never bool(); retain-last-known; only
subscription_micros may be negative; *_usd kept verbatim).
- run_agent.py: _capture_credits / get_credits_state / get_credits_spent_micros,
session-start baseline latch, + dev-gated "credits" capture log.
- agent/chat_completion_helpers.py: capture on the streaming response.
- agent/agent_init.py: init _credits_state + _credits_session_start_micros.
- tui_gateway/server.py: _get_usage emits dev_credits_spent_micros only when flagged.
- ui-tui appChrome.tsx / types.ts: cents delta status segment + "(dev credits)" banner.
Off by default; silent for normal users. Validated live against staging
(capture log delta matches the TUI segment). Throwaway consumer (readout/log/
banner); credits_tracker + the capture plumbing are the real feature foundation.
* test(credits): lock parser under 9-state matrix + harden validation (L2)
Add tests/agent/test_credits_tracker.py with 92 tests covering the 9-state
matrix (healthy, sub_90pct, grant_exhausted, purchased_only, tool_pool_free,
depleted, debt, missing, no_org) plus validation edge cases: version strict==1
with warn-once latch for v>1, bool-string trap (paid_access/tool_pool_gated_off
== "true"/"false", never bool()), half-pair subscription limit treated as
both-absent while parse succeeds, USD regex ^-?\d+\.\d{2}$, non-int micros
→ None, negative non-subscription micros → None, as_of_ms junk → None, zero
limit ZeroDivision guard.
Harden agent/credits_tracker.py to match the spec:
- Add tool_pool_micros/tool_pool_gated_off/from_header fields to CreditsState
- Add depleted property (== not paid_access, never remaining==0)
- Change used_fraction guard to key off subscription_limit_micros (the actual
denominator) not denominator_kind (metadata)
- Replace fail-soft _safe_int with a sentinel-returning variant; full validation
now returns None on any malformed field rather than silently defaulting
- Add module-level warn-once latch for version > 1
- Add USD regex validation; add denominator_kind allow-list check
- Parse x-nous-tool-pool-* prefix headers (not x-nous-credits-tool-pool-*)
* feat(credits): notice spine — AgentNotice + notice_callback/notice_clear_callback + TUI binding (L1)
L1 of usage-aware credits: the driver-agnostic notice delivery spine that L4's
policy will fire through and L5's TUI render will consume.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: AgentNotice dataclass (text/level/kind/ttl_ms/key/id;
kind defaults "sticky", kept TTL-expressive for a future config seam).
- run_agent.py: AIAgent gains notice_callback + notice_clear_callback slots and
_emit_notice / _emit_notice_clear emitters (swallow all callback errors — a
notice must never break the agent loop; no-op when unbound).
- agent/agent_init.py: thread both callbacks through init_agent.
- tui_gateway/server.py: bind both in _agent_cbs → notification.show / notification.clear
WS events (snake_case payload, matching the existing gateway-event convention).
- ui-tui/src/gatewayTypes.ts: notification.show / notification.clear arms on GatewayEvent.
- tests/run_agent/test_notice_spine.py: 15 tests (emitter fire + fail-open + no-op,
signature threading, TUI binding payload shape).
Messaging push is out of v1 (binds neither callback). CLI binding + the TUI render/
decode land with L4 (firing) and L5 (render) so turn-end flush is wired correctly.
* feat(credits): threshold reconciliation policy + tests (L4.1)
* feat(credits): wire threshold policy into capture + latch (L4.2)
After a fresh header parse, _capture_credits runs evaluate_credits_notices against
the agent's _credits_latch and emits the result — clears first, then shows (so a
recovered depletion clears before the "restored" success lands, and depleted wins
the latest-wins slot). Gated on a bound notice_callback: messaging (no callbacks)
still caches state for /usage but runs no policy. Parse stays fail-open (miss →
keep last-known); the eval/emit path warns on failure rather than swallowing, so a
depletion-notice bug can't vanish silently.
- run_agent.py: _capture_credits split into parse (swallow→miss) + policy (warn);
latch lazy-guarded (object.__new__ safety).
- agent/agent_init.py: init agent._credits_latch = {"active": set(), "seen_below_90": False}.
* feat(tui): render credits notices in the status bar (L5, Strategy B)
The TUI now renders the notification.show / notification.clear gateway events the
agent emits — a level-colored notice overrides the status/verb slot when not busy.
- Notice state machine on turnController (pendingNotice + dedicated noticeTimer +
show/clear/applyNotice/flushPendingNotice/clearNoticeState). createGatewayEventHandler
decodes the events and delegates.
- Render priority busy > notice > status (appChrome StatusRule); notice text rendered
verbatim (its glyph comes from the policy), shrinkable so it never clips model│ctx;
dev-credits banner + Δ segment preserved. UiState.notice is snake_case (matches wire).
- Busy-wins: a notice arriving mid-turn is held and flushed at the THREE turn-end sites
(recordMessageComplete / interruptTurn / recordError) — never idle(), which reset()
also calls (would leak across sessions); reset() clears instead.
- Dedicated noticeTimer (never statusTimer); TTL starts on visibility with an id-guard;
latest-wins cancels the prior timer; clear is key-matched (no-op on mismatch); a sticky
survives a turn (flush no-ops with no pending); session reset clears (no cross-session leak).
- 20 tests (handler/turnController logic incl. R3-C2 timer isolation + render priority).
* feat(credits): cold-start seed for new Nous sessions (L3)
A genuinely-new Nous session has no inference header yet, so seed credits state from
the authoritative GET /api/oauth/account snapshot at session start (in the new-session
branch of _restore_or_build_system_prompt — inline, since the on_session_start plugin
hook gets no agent reference). The seed runs the shared notice policy, so a session that
opens already depleted warns IMMEDIATELY rather than only after the first turn.
- Maps the nested account fields (paid_service_access → paid_access; total_usable /
subscription / purchased on paid_service_access_info; rollover on subscription), each
None-guarded; float dollars → micros via round(d*1e6), *_usd left "" (render formats
from micros — never synthesize a verbatim usd from a float).
- Magnitudes-only: no monthlyCredits on the endpoint → subscription_limit_* unset →
used_fraction None → no warn90 from the seed (% only once a header lands, per D-E).
- Provider-guarded to Nous; fail-open (any error leaves _credits_state None, never
blocks startup); paid_access unknown ⇒ True (never falsely depleted).
- run_agent.py: extracted the warm-path policy/emit block into a shared
_emit_credits_notices() so capture and the seed fire notices identically.
* feat(credits): /usage Nous credits magnitudes view + recovery trigger (L6)
Add Nous credit dollar magnitudes to /usage (subscription / top-up / total
+ rollover + renewal + portal CTA), magnitudes-only per v1 (no % until the
account endpoint exposes a denominator). Reuses the existing account-usage
render machinery via a new pure build_nous_credits_snapshot() that maps a
NousPortalAccountInfo to an AccountUsageSnapshot; no nous branch is added to
fetch_account_usage (keeps the per-provider boundary intact).
CLI /usage also doubles as a depletion-recovery trigger: a force_fresh
account fetch, kept in a SEPARATE local so it never clobbers the
header-sourced agent._credits_state (which alone carries used_fraction). If
paid access recovered while credits.depleted is latched and a notice
consumer is bound, it reuses agent._emit_credits_notices() to clear it.
Gateway /usage displays magnitudes only — messaging binds no notice
consumer, so it performs no recovery emit.
Fail-open throughout: any portal hiccup leaves /usage unaffected.
* refactor(credits): dedupe HERMES_DEV_CREDITS flag parse via shared helpers
The dev-flag truthy check was inlined in three places. Replace with the shared
utils.is_truthy_value (run_agent.py, tui_gateway/server.py — also drops a
redundant inline `import os`) and a hoisted DEV_CREDITS_MODE export in
ui-tui/src/config/env.ts (consumed by appChrome, which also stops recomputing the
env check on every render). Behaviour-preserving; identical truthy set.
* fix(credits): cut dead /usage recovery trigger + bound portal fetches (L6 review)
Adversarial review found the /usage depletion-recovery trigger dead AND broken:
the CLI binds no notice_clear_callback, the TUI runs /usage in a separate
slash-worker subprocess (its own agent/latch), and the no-clobber rule made it
evaluate stale paid_access anyway. Recovery already happens on the next inference
(warm path), so the trigger was redundant — remove it and stop the depleted
notice over-promising.
- cli.py: remove the dead recovery block; bound the /usage portal fetch with a
10s wall-clock timeout (ThreadPoolExecutor) like the per-provider fetch —
urllib's per-socket timeout is not a wall-clock guarantee.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: reword the depleted CTA to "run /usage for balance"
(no false recovery promise; /usage shows fresh magnitudes, sticky clears next turn).
- agent/conversation_loop.py: same wall-clock timeout on the cold-start seed fetch
so a stalled portal can't hang session startup; tidy its time import.
* chore(credits): dev notice-state fixtures (HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE)
Throwaway dev scaffolding to exercise the notice pipeline without real spend or
Redis seeding. Set HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE to a state name (healthy / sub_90pct
/ grant_exhausted / depleted / clear) or a file path whose contents name a state
(re-read each turn → flip states live for recovery testing). _capture_credits
injects the chosen CreditsState instead of parsing real headers and runs the
shared notice policy. Deletable with the rest of the HERMES_DEV_CREDITS scaffolding.
* feat(credits): /usage monthly-grant % gauge
The portal /api/oauth/account subscription block now carries monthly_credits
(the per-period grant allowance, the % denominator). The consumer parsed
monthly_charge but dropped monthly_credits, so /usage stayed magnitudes-only.
Capture monthly_credits into NousPortalSubscriptionInfo + _subscription_from_payload.
build_nous_credits_snapshot emits a Subscription usage window (real % used, routed
through the existing render machinery) when monthly_credits is a finite positive
denominator and credits_remaining is finite and <= cap; otherwise it degrades to
magnitudes-only (older portals, rollover-over-cap, or non-finite payloads).
Guards (adversarial-review-driven): reject non-finite operands (json.loads parses
bare NaN/Infinity by default → would render $nan + a false 100% used), reject
bools, guard div-by-zero (cap>0), and suppress the gauge when remaining > cap
(rollover spanning the period makes the cap a nonsensical denominator → the
$X-of-$Y detail would read as a contradiction). Debt (remaining<0) clamps to 100%.
Money rule preserved: the ratio + magnitudes are computed from numeric float
account fields via display formatting, never by parsing a server *_usd string
(there are none on these dataclasses).
13 gauge tests added (tests/agent/test_nous_credits_gauge.py).
* fix(credits): show /usage Nous block whenever a Nous account is present
/usage runs in a slash-worker subprocess whose resolved inference provider is
often not "nous" even when the user has a Nous account, so gating the Nous
credits block on (provider == "nous") hid it entirely — the account data was
fully available but never rendered.
Gate instead on "a Nous account is logged in": a cheap local auth-state lookup
(get_provider_auth_state('nous') has an access_token) decides whether to attempt
the portal fetch, regardless of which provider inference runs on. In the gateway
the block is also lifted out of the 'if provider:' scope so a Nous-credentialled
user with another (or no) resident inference provider still sees their balance.
Fail-open and the per-fetch wall-clock timeout are preserved.
* fix(credits): show /usage Nous block when there's no live agent (TUI slash-worker)
In the TUI, /usage runs in a slash-worker subprocess that resumes the session
WITHOUT building an agent (self.agent is None), so _show_usage early-returned
"(._.) No active agent" before ever reaching the Nous credits block — which is
agent-independent (a portal fetch gated on Nous auth-state). Extract the block
into _print_nous_credits_block() and run it at the no-agent / no-calls
early-returns too (returns True if it printed, so the fallback message only
shows when there's genuinely nothing).
Verified live against staging: the block + monthly-grant gauge now render in the
slash-worker /usage path (previously hidden). The plain CLI REPL + messaging
paths are unchanged (they have a live agent).
* feat(credits): escalating 50/75/90 usage bands (single status line)
Replace the lone 90%-used warning with three escalating bands (50 info, 75 warn,
90 warn) shown as ONE status-bar line: it displays the highest band the
subscription grant has crossed, replaces the line as usage climbs, steps back
down on recovery, and clears below 50%. No stacking, no per-turn churn.
Bands live in a tunable CREDITS_USAGE_BANDS list; the policy derives everything
from it. Single notice key (credits.usage) with a usage_band latch field so the
notice only re-emits when the band actually changes. The crossing gate
(seen_below_90) is preserved so a fresh live session that opens mid-range stays
quiet until it has been observed below the lowest band (cold-start primes it when
it wants an open-high warning). Denominator math unchanged: % = subscription
grant burn (cap - grant_remaining)/cap, clamped [0,1]; top-up never moves the %.
Migrated test_credits_policy.py to the new key + added TestUsageBands (climb,
step-down, recovery-clear, idempotent, inclusive boundaries).
* feat(credits): hydrate notices at session OPEN via shared seed (TUI + first-turn)
Notices previously only fired inside a conversation turn (first message), so a
session that opened already depleted / past a usage band showed nothing at
'ready'. Extract the cold-start seed into a shared seed_credits_at_session_start()
and call it (a) in the TUI/desktop agent build right after the notice callback is
wired (fires at 'ready', before any message) and (b) as the first-turn fallback in
conversation_loop. Idempotent (skips once _credits_state exists) and fail-open.
The seed now maps monthly_credits -> subscription_limit_micros +
denominator_kind='subscription_cap', so used_fraction is computable at seed time
and usage-band warnings (not just depletion) hydrate on open. Primes the crossing
latch so a session opening already in a band warns immediately. Degrades to
depletion-only when monthly_credits is absent (older portals).
Adds test_credits_cold_start.py covering open-at-band, depletion, debt, no-cap
degradation, and the shared seed (fires/idempotent/skips-non-nous).
* feat(credits): /usage monthly-grant % gauge + fixture support + TUI surfacing
agent/account_usage.py: build_nous_credits_snapshot emits a subscription %% gauge
when the portal supplies a positive, finite monthly_credits denominator with
remaining <= cap (guards reject NaN/Infinity and rollover-over-cap, which would
render $nan or a contradictory $X-of-$Y); degrades to magnitudes-only otherwise.
Adds shared nous_credits_lines() (auth-gated, wall-clock-bounded portal fetch) so
the CLI and TUI /usage render the same block, and _snapshot_from_credits_state()
so HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE drives /usage offline too.
TUI: session.usage RPC carries credits_lines (agent-independent) and the /usage
panel renders them regardless of API-call count or resume state — previously the
TUI's separate /usage implementation only showed token counts.
Money rule preserved: %% and magnitudes come from numeric float account fields via
display formatting, never by parsing a server *_usd string.
* feat(credits): CLI REPL inline notices (parity with TUI)
The plain CLI agent bound no notice callbacks, so credit notices were TUI-only.
Bind notice_callback/notice_clear_callback on the CLI AIAgent; _on_notice renders
a single level-colored line above the prompt (error red / warn yellow / success
green / info dim) via _cprint, and seed credits at session open so a depletion or
usage-band warning shows before the first message — the same hydration the TUI
got. _on_notice_clear is a no-op (the REPL prints lines, no persistent slot).
* test(credits): add sub_50pct + sub_75pct dev fixtures for the new usage bands
The fixture set jumped 10%% -> 90%%; add sub_50pct (uf 0.5 -> band 50 info) and
sub_75pct (uf 0.75 -> band 75 warn) so the new escalating bands are exercisable
via HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE across all three surfaces (notice, session-open
seed, /usage gauge).
* fix(credits): usage-band notice clears on next prompt (not sticky-forever)
A 50/75/90 usage heads-up was sticky and camped the status bar indefinitely. Clear
the visible credits.usage notice when a new turn starts (startMessage), so it shows
until your next prompt then yields. The server latch is unchanged, so it won't
re-nag at the same band — it only re-shows when the band actually changes (climb)
or clears when usage drops below the lowest band. Depletion stays sticky.
* refactor(credits): consolidate the /usage credits block behind nous_credits_lines()
The CLI (_print_nous_credits_block) and the messaging gateway (_handle_usage_command)
each re-implemented the auth-gate + portal fetch + render, and both bypassed the
dev-fixture short-circuit that only the TUI honored — so /usage ignored
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE on the CLI and in chat. Route both through the shared
agent.account_usage.nous_credits_lines() helper: one fetch/render path, one auth
gate, and the fixture works on every surface (~60 fewer duplicated lines).
The gateway usage test recorded only the last asyncio.to_thread call; /usage now
dispatches both the account fetch and the credits fetch, so it records every call
and matches the account fetch by its provider arg.
* fix(credits): keep the /usage gauge type-safe and log its fail-open path
_is_finite_num is now a TypeGuard[float], so the type checker narrows the gauge
operands (monthly_credits / credits_remaining) and the magnitudes passed to
_fmt_usd through it — no more None-operand warnings on the arithmetic. Add a debug
breadcrumb on the nous_credits_lines portal-fetch fail-open so a dead /usage block
is diagnosable in agent.log without a dev flag.
* fix(credits): harden the header tracker — prod-leak gate, hot-path probe, fire-and-forget seed
- Prod-leak guard: dev fixtures (HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE) now also require
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS, so a stray fixture var can't surface fabricated balances on a
real account. Matches the documented run workflow (both vars set together).
- Hot-path probe: parse_credits_headers checks for the version sentinel header
before allocating a lowercased copy of the response headers — skips that work on
every non-Nous API call. Behaviour-identical and still case-insensitive.
- Fire-and-forget seed: the real portal fetch in seed_credits_at_session_start now
runs in a daemon thread, so a slow/unreachable portal never delays session "ready"
(previously blocked up to 10s). The dev-fixture path stays synchronous; the thread
re-checks idempotency before hydrating (a live header may land first).
- Diagnostics: debug breadcrumbs on the parse and seed fail-open paths so a crashed
parser / dead seed is distinguishable from a legitimate no-headers miss.
Cold-start tests set HERMES_DEV_CREDITS alongside the fixture to match the gate.
* test(tui): fix env-timing in the StatusRule dev-credits assertion
DEV_CREDITS_MODE is read once at module load (config/env), so mutating
process.env.HERMES_DEV_CREDITS inside the test couldn't flip it — the dev-banner
assertion only passed if the env was exported before vitest started, and failed in a
normal run. Move that assertion to a sibling file that mocks config/env with
DEV_CREDITS_MODE: true (scoped, no module-reset / React-identity hazard).
* test(credits): cover the dev-fixture /usage render and usage-band clear-on-prompt
- _snapshot_from_credits_state (the offline /usage renderer) had no direct test:
lock the gauge math, the verbatim *_usd magnitudes, the depletion line and the
fixture marker, plus the no-cap (no gauge) and None-state cases.
- turnController.startMessage had no test for clearing the credits.usage notice on
the next prompt while leaving credits.depleted sticky.
* feat(credits): deliver credit notices over messaging gateways
Bind notice_callback/notice_clear_callback on the per-turn gateway agent
so usage-band / depletion / restored notices reach Telegram/Discord/Slack/
etc. Previously the messaging gateway bound neither callback, so the agent's
_emit_credits_notices early-returned and a chat user crossing a band got
nothing unless they ran /usage manually.
- render_notice_line(): AgentNotice -> single plaintext line (level glyph +
text), plaintext-only so it renders uniformly without per-platform escaping.
Fail-soft on malformed/empty notices.
- Standalone push for every notice (messaging has no persistent status bar):
route through the shared _deliver_platform_notice rail (honors private/
public delivery + thread metadata), scheduled onto the gateway loop via
safe_schedule_threadsafe from the agent's sync worker thread — same pattern
as _status_callback_sync.
- The fired-once latch lives on the cached (reused-in-place) agent and
persists across turns, so a band crosses once -> one push, no per-turn
re-nag. Re-fires only after idle-eviction rebuilds the agent (a reminder).
- Recovery ('Credit access restored') rides the show path (emitted as a
success notice, not a clear). notice_clear_callback is a no-op: a sent
platform message can't be cleanly retracted.
Tests: render glyph/levels/fail-soft + public/private delivery seam through
_deliver_platform_notice + no-adapter no-op.
* fix(credits): don't double the glyph on messaging notices
render_notice_line prepended a per-level glyph, but the notice policy already
bakes the glyph into the text (and the TUI + CLI render it verbatim) — so every
credit notice over messaging came out doubled ("⚠ ⚠ Credits 90% used",
"⛔ ✕ Credit access paused"). Emit the text verbatim instead; drop the now-dead
level→glyph map.
The render tests fed glyph-less text (and the success case only checked
startswith), so the doubling slipped through. Rework them around the verbatim
contract and add an end-to-end regression that runs real evaluate_credits_notices
output through render_notice_line and asserts the line is returned unchanged.
Widens ViewWay's #20741 fix to the sibling config surface: a
custom_providers entry can pin its own output cap via max_output_tokens
(or max_tokens). _get_named_custom_provider now lifts it onto the
resolved runtime at all three return sites, and the gateway uses it as a
fallback only when the documented global model.max_tokens isn't set, so
the global key always wins.
Precedence: HERMES_MAX_TOKENS > model.max_tokens > provider
max_output_tokens > None. Closes the same #20741 truncation for users who
configure the cap per-provider rather than globally.
Picks up the intent of #19782 (alexcam1901), reimplemented to feed
ViewWay's max_tokens pipeline.
max_tokens set under model: in config.yaml was silently ignored.
The value was never read from config, never passed through
_resolve_runtime_agent_kwargs(), _resolve_turn_agent_config(),
or the session override path. Added it to all three code paths
so custom/Ollama endpoints receive the correct output cap.
Closes#20741
When the agent's reply references a deliverable file path that does not
exist on disk, extract_local_files dropped it from native delivery with
no log line — the most common reason a promised file never arrives over
a messaging platform. Add an INFO log at that drop point so the gap is
visible in gateway.log instead of vanishing.
Also convert the two print() calls in Telegram's send_document /
send_video exception handlers to logger.warning(exc_info=True). print()
writes to stdout, which 'hermes logs' never captures, so outbound upload
failures (oversized files, Bot API rejections) were invisible.
A bare /voice silently toggled on/off with a one-line result, leaving
users with no idea what the modes mean or that Discord also supports
TTS-all and live voice-channel join/leave. Bare /voice now still
toggles but appends a usage explainer covering on/off/tts/status, with
the Discord voice-channel lines shown only on adapters that support
them.
Adds gateway.voice.help + gateway.voice.help_channels across all 16
locales (placeholders {toggle}/{channels}).
* feat(discord): voice-channel mixer — ambient idle bed + verbal acks that overlap TTS
Discord voice mode can now feel conversational: the bot speaks a short
acknowledgement before it starts working, and a subtle ambient 'thinking' bed
plays underneath while tools run, ducking under speech and swelling back — the
Grok-voice-mode feel.
discord.py plays only one audio stream per voice connection, so this adds a
software mixer (VoiceMixer, a discord.AudioSource) installed once per guild on
join. It sums an ambient loop, verbal acks, and TTS replies into that single
20ms/48kHz/stereo stream (numpy int16 add + clip), so they overlap instead of
stop-and-swap. Speech ducks the ambient gain down and releases it smoothly.
- plugins/platforms/discord/voice_mixer.py: VoiceMixer + MixerChild (gain,
loop, fade, duck/release), decode_to_pcm (ffmpeg), synth_ambient_pcm (no
asset needed — synthesised pad).
- adapter: install mixer on join, tear down on leave, route
play_in_voice_channel through the mixer (legacy one-shot path kept as
fallback), play_ack_in_voice, voice_mixer_active. Defensive getattr for the
object.__new__ test helpers.
- gateway/run.py: tool_start_callback fires a one-time verbal ack on the first
tool call of a turn when in a voice channel (independent of the text
tool-progress gate). No system-prompt or message-flow changes.
- config: discord.voice_fx.* (OFF by default; ambient/duck/speech gains, ack
phrases). All in config.yaml, not .env.
- docs + tests (mixer unit + adapter integration).
Verified: 19 new tests pass, existing voice suite green (2 pre-existing
davey-module env failures unchanged), and a real-mixer E2E confirms ambient
streams, TTS overlaps it, acks layer in, and teardown is clean.
* fix(discord): make voice mixer numpy import lazy (numpy is voice-extra-only)
numpy ships in the optional 'voice' extra, not [all,dev], so a module-level
'import numpy' broke CI test collection (and would break the always-imported
Discord adapter on any install without the voice extra). Defer numpy to the
functions that actually mix audio via _require_numpy(); guard the test module
with pytest.importorskip('numpy').
`_read_json_file` caught OSError but not UnicodeDecodeError, so a status
file holding binary/non-UTF-8 bytes (truncated or clobbered write) would
crash the gateway status path instead of being treated as unreadable.
UnicodeDecodeError is a ValueError subclass, not an OSError, so it
escaped the existing guard.
Widen the catch to (OSError, UnicodeDecodeError) at both read sites in
gateway/status.py — `_read_json_file` and the sibling `_read_pid_record`,
which had the identical gap. Adds tests covering binary input (returns
None) and valid input (still parses) for both.

The existing-message overflow split path in stream_consumer.run() sealed the
first chunk via _send_or_edit(chunk) (finalize=False) then reset _message_id
to None — so that chunk was never edited again and never received the adapter's
final rich-text pass. On Telegram, MarkdownV2 formatting is applied on the
finalize edit, so early split messages of a long multi-part streamed reply
rendered raw markdown (##, **bold**, code fences) while only the last chunk
rendered correctly.
Fix: seal the overflow chunk with finalize=True so it gets its final
formatting pass before _message_id is cleared.
Salvaged from #32609 (the streaming-format portion only; the PR's send_draft
parse_mode change is already superseded on main, and its media-roots change
conflicts with the current denylist + recency-window delivery model).
`markdown` was declared only in the `matrix` optional extra, and the
official Docker image installs `--extra all --extra messaging --extra
anthropic --extra bedrock --extra azure-identity --extra hindsight` —
notably NOT `--extra matrix` (the matrix extra is deliberately routed to
lazy-install because `mautrix[encryption]`/`python-olm` can't build on
Windows/macOS — see the 2026-05-12 policy comment in `[all]`).
Result: `markdown` never lands in the image venv, so the Markdown->HTML
conversion on the DEFAULT delivery path silently falls back to plain
text. Cron/agent deliveries render raw `##`/`**`/tables in clients like
Element (no `formatted_body`). The conversion is now used by BOTH
`gateway/platforms/matrix.py` and `tools/send_message_tool.py`, so it is
no longer matrix-specific.
`markdown` is a pure-Python `py3-none-any` wheel (~108KB, no compiled
extensions, no platform constraints), so none of the reasons the matrix
extra was lazy-routed apply to it. Promote it to a core dependency so it
ships in the wheel, the Docker image, and every install; drop the now
redundant copies from the `matrix` extra and the `platform.matrix`
lazy-deps group; refresh the stale "installed with the matrix extra"
docstring.
Verified against a real build: ran the image's exact `uv sync` command
(same extras, no `--extra matrix`) in a clean container off the new
lockfile -> `import markdown` succeeds (3.10.2). On `origin/main` the
same command leaves markdown absent. 223 targeted tests pass
(test_matrix.py + test_lazy_deps.py).
Closes#32486.
/branch (aka /fork) sessions vanished from /resume and /sessions. Both
surfaces funnel through list_sessions_rich(include_children=False), which
hid any session with a parent_session_id unless identified as a branch via a
heuristic — parent.end_reason == 'branched' AND child.started_at >=
parent.ended_at.
Two ways that heuristic failed:
1. CLI/gateway branches: once the parent was reopened (e.g. resumed) and
re-ended with a different end_reason (tui_shutdown overwriting 'branched'),
the heuristic stopped matching and the branch was hidden permanently.
2. TUI branches (tui_gateway session.branch): the TUI never ends the parent
as 'branched' — it creates the child while the parent is still live — so
the heuristic NEVER matched and TUI branches were hidden from the moment
they were created (this is the macOS desktop app's primary symptom).
Fix: persist a stable '_branched_from' marker in the branch session's
model_config at creation time across ALL THREE branch paths (CLI cli.py,
gateway gateway/run.py, and TUI tui_gateway/server.py), and OR a
json_extract(model_config, '$._branched_from') IS NOT NULL check into the
list_sessions_rich filter. The marker is immutable across the parent's
lifecycle, so the branch stays visible regardless of how/whether the parent
is ended. The legacy end_reason heuristic is kept (OR'd) so pre-existing
branches remain visible. Subagent/compression children (no marker, parent
not 'branched') stay correctly hidden. Fixes#20856.
Approach by liuhao1024 (PR #20864); reimplemented on current main, extended
to the TUI branch path (which the original missed), with regression tests for
the reopen+re-end scenario and the TUI marker persistence.
A session_reset (/new, /cc) that bumps the run generation while an agent
turn is in flight left the dead agent in the _running_agents slot: the
in-flight run's own release is generation-guarded and correctly returns
False, and the outer finally's sentinel-only check also missed the
leftover real agent. The session then silently dropped every subsequent
message as 'agent busy' until a full gateway restart. (#28686)
- _process_message_or_command outer finally now calls the unconditional,
idempotent _release_running_agent_state(key) on all exit paths instead
of the sentinel-vs-else branch that could strand a dead agent.
- _handle_reset_command evicts the slot right after bumping the
generation, so the zombie is cleared at reset time regardless of how
the in-flight run unwinds.

Root-run gateways have $HOME=/root, which is on the MEDIA system-path
denylist, so the gateway silently dropped agent-generated deliverables
under /root (e.g. /root/work/proposal.docx) — the user got a 'here is
your file' reply with nothing attached.
_path_under_denied_prefix now treats the running user's own home as
deliverable: the home tree itself is no longer denied, while the
more-specific denied paths inside it (~/.ssh, ~/.aws, ~/.hermes/.env,
auth.json, config.yaml) stay blocked because they are separate denylist
entries. The exception only matches when the denied prefix IS $HOME, so
a non-root gateway still can't deliver another user's home.
Diagnosis, reproduction, and the failing-case analysis are from
@GodsBoy (#38108 / #38106). Implemented here as the minimal denylist
fix rather than a staging/copy subsystem.

The ResponseStore.get() method calls json.loads(row[0]) without any
error handling. If the SQLite responses table contains corrupted JSON
data (e.g. from a crash mid-write or disk corruption), this raises
an unhandled JSONDecodeError that propagates to the caller.
Fix: wrap in try/except (json.JSONDecodeError, TypeError). On parse
failure, log a warning, evict the corrupted entry from the cache, and
return None (consistent with the function's Optional return type).
Collapse the payload-shape normalization helpers into one _as_dict and
drop unused dataclass fields (user_type/user_role, duplicate id, bot) on
the meeting-invite handler. Module 274->212 LOC, behavior unchanged.
Add zhaolei.vc@bytedance.com -> zhaoleibd to release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
Two error handling gaps in the gateway kanban dispatcher:
1. float() on dispatch_interval_seconds crashes with ValueError if the
config value is a non-numeric string. Wrap in try/except and fall
back to the default 60-second interval with a warning log.
2. splitlines()[0] on payload_summary and task.result raises IndexError
when the string is whitespace-only (truthy but strip() produces empty
string, splitlines() returns []). Guard with a check on the lines
list before indexing.
PR #13021 fixed serial starvation by adding ThreadPoolExecutor to tick(),
but kept as_completed(timeout=600) which still blocks the ticker thread
until the slowest job finishes. This causes the same starvation pattern:
when one job runs long (15+ min), other jobs' next_run_at expires past the
grace window and they get perpetually fast-forwarded instead of running.
This PR decouples dispatch from completion:
- Persistent ThreadPoolExecutor (reused across ticks, no auto-join)
- Fire-and-forget dispatch: tick submits and returns immediately
- Running-job guard: prevents re-dispatching active jobs
- sync parameter: defaults to True (backward compatible), callers opt
into sync=False for non-blocking behavior
- atexit shutdown handler for clean pool teardown
- gateway/run.py: production ticker opts into sync=False
Refs #33315 (complementary — that issue's PRs fix grace handling in
jobs.py; this PR prevents the grace from expiring in the first place)
The shared-key bridging loop (allow_from, require_mention,
free_response_channels, …) read only the top-level yaml platform block
(yaml_cfg.get(plat.value)). When a user configured a platform solely
under ``platforms:`` or ``gateway.platforms:`` with no top-level block,
the loop skipped that platform entirely and all bridged keys were silently
dropped into PlatformConfig.extra — making allow_from, require_mention,
etc. ineffective for nested-only configs.
The apply_yaml_config_fn dispatch already received this same fallback in
44f3e51 to handle plugin adapters (e.g. Discord allow_from). The
shared-key loop now mirrors it: if yaml_cfg.get(plat.value) is absent,
fall back to gateway.platforms.<name> then platforms.<name>.
The enabled field is deliberately excluded from the nested fallback
(guarded by _cfg_toplevel): _merge_platform_map already merged it with
the correct precedence, so re-applying it from a single nested source
would overwrite the correctly-merged value.
Two new regression tests assert that allow_from and require_mention
configured under platforms.telegram and gateway.platforms.telegram are
bridged into PlatformConfig.extra. All 54 existing config tests pass.
Adds backend-neutral observer hooks for plugins: session, turn, API
request, tool, approval, and subagent lifecycle events with stable
correlation IDs (session_id, task_id, turn_id, api_request_id,
tool_call_id, parent/child subagent ids). Extends VALID_HOOKS with
api_request_error and subagent_start.
Hot path is zero-cost when no plugin subscribes: has_hook()/presence
checks gate all payload construction, request payloads are returned
by reference when no middleware rewrites, and the sanitized response
payload no longer embeds raw response objects.
Bundles the optional NeMo-Relay observability plugin
(plugins/observability/nemo_relay) as an in-repo consumer of the new
hooks, peer to the existing langfuse plugin. Fails open when the
optional nemo-relay package is not installed.

Salvaged from #29722 onto current main.
Follow-up to the salvaged contributor commit:
- Underscore→hyphen tolerance now emits a resolvable token. Previously
the detect set accepted the hyphenated variant but emit returned the
raw token, so '!set_home' produced '/set_home' which the dispatcher
could not resolve. Now emits '/set-home'. Aliases are left as-is — the
gateway dispatcher canonicalizes them itself.
- Fix dead skill-command branch: skill command keys are stored
slash-prefixed (e.g. '/arxiv') in get_skill_commands(), but the check
compared the bare token, so '!arxiv' never normalized. Now compares
the '/candidate' form, making skill aliases (e.g. !gif-search) work.
- Re-run bang normalization after Matrix reply-fallback stripping so a
quoted reply whose content is a bang command reaches command parity
with the slash form.
- Replace silent 'except Exception: pass' with logger.debug(exc_info=True).
- Add AUTHOR_MAP entry for @nepenth.
Tests: +5 (underscore-alias, skill-command branch, quoted-reply bang +
slash parity). 162 Matrix tests pass.
Seven Copilot inline review comments on #37679, four worth landing
in a polish pass before merge:
1. _dispose_unused_adapter signature: 'BasePlatformAdapter' ->
'BasePlatformAdapter | None'. The function explicitly handles
None and the reconnect watcher calls it with None in the
except arm, so the annotation now matches the actual contract.
2. (duplicate of #1 on a different line) — same fix.
3. except Exception in _dispose_unused_adapter — the reviewer
asked about asyncio.CancelledError swallowing. On Python 3.8+
(Hermes requires 3.13, see pyproject.toml), CancelledError
inherits from BaseException, NOT Exception, so the existing
'except Exception' does NOT swallow task cancellation. Added
an explicit comment explaining the contract so future readers
don't repeat the analysis. We don't re-raise because the
watcher loop intentionally treats dispose failures as
best-effort: a failed dispose on an unowned adapter should not
take down the watcher that's keeping the gateway alive.
4. _response_store = None after close in api_server.py — the
reviewer flagged this for idempotency. Decided to keep the
non-None state intentionally: setting it to None cascades
to ~9 callers that access self._response_store without a
None check, and 'close() is idempotent on a closed sqlite3
Connection' means the current code is already safe. The
type stays stable; LSP doesn't flag a cascade of
reportOptionalMemberAccess errors. (This matches the
pre-existing pattern in the codebase — e.g.
_mark_disconnected doesn't reset state to None either.)
5. _build_adapter_with_store: reviewer worried about
disconnect() failing on the self.name property if
__init__ wasn't called. Already handled: we set
'adapter.platform = Platform.API_SERVER' so the
'self.platform.value.title()' property returns
'Api_Server' without raising. The exception-swallowing
branch in disconnect() does call self.name via the
logger.debug format, so this is a real path that needs
the platform attribute, and we have it.
6. test_disconnect_closes_response_store: bare 'pytest.raises(Exception)'
-> 'pytest.raises(sqlite3.ProgrammingError)'. The bare
Exception matcher would silently accept AttributeError,
OperationalError, env-related issues, etc. The specific
exception type ('Cannot operate on a closed database') is
the actual signal we want — proves the SQLite conn is
closed, not just that *something* raised.
7. test_nonretryable_failure_disposes_unowned_adapter:
assertion tightened from '>= 1' to '== 1' on
adapter._disconnect_calls. The docstring said 'exactly once',
the assertion now matches. Catches the hypothetical
'watcher disposes the same adapter twice' regression that
'>=' would have missed.
Three separate code paths in the gateway's platform reconnect loop
leaked file descriptors every retry, exhausting the default 2560-fd
ulimit in ~12 hours of continuous failure and turning the gateway
into a zombie that raises OSError: [Errno 24] on every open() (#37011).
Root cause:
* APIServerAdapter.__init__ opens a ResponseStore SQLite connection
that holds 2 fds (db file + WAL sidecar).
* APIServerAdapter.disconnect() previously only stopped the aiohttp
web server — the ResponseStore connection was never closed.
* The reconnect watcher in _platform_reconnect_watcher constructs a
fresh adapter on every retry attempt. When the connect call fails
(3 paths: non-retryable error, retryable error, exception during
connect) the adapter is dropped without ever being installed on
self.adapters, so nothing else calls its disconnect(). Result: the
2 ResponseStore fds stay open until GC sweeps the unreachable
object, which Python's cyclic GC does not do promptly for
asyncio-bound native handles.
2 fds × 1 retry × (3600s / 300s backoff cap) ≈ 12 fds/hour.
2560 fds / 12 fds/hr ≈ 12h to ulimit exhaustion.
Fix:
* APIServerAdapter.disconnect() now also calls
self._response_store.close() (with a try/except so a SQLite
close failure doesn't abort the aiohttp teardown).
* New module-level helper _dispose_unused_adapter(adapter) in
gateway/run.py that calls adapter.disconnect() and swallows
any exception (so half-constructed adapters whose __init__
crashed don't kill the watcher loop).
* _platform_reconnect_watcher calls _dispose_unused_adapter() in
all three failure paths: non-retryable, retryable, and the
except Exception arm. adapter = None is initialized
before the try so the except arm can see the partial
construction.
Tests:
* New file tests/gateway/test_platform_reconnect_fd_leak.py with
7 regression tests covering all three failure paths, the
_dispose_unused_adapter helper (None + raising-disconnect cases),
and the APIServerAdapter ResponseStore close behavior (success +
close-exception cases). The _CountingAdapter fixture tracks
disconnect() invocations and an _open_fds counter that is
decremented on dispose, so the assertion is the literal
observable behavior of the leak.
Refs:
- Closes#37011 (the original fd-leak report)
- Supersedes #37018, #37110, #37238, #37260, #37394 (7 competing
open PRs all addressing the same root cause from different angles;
none of them rebased cleanly against current main, and none
covered all three failure paths in one fix with regression tests
for both the watcher and the platform-level close behavior)
Background-task (/background, /btw) result media now routes to the
type-specific sender — TTS clip → voice bubble, video → send_video,
image → send_image_file — instead of forcing everything through
send_document. Mirrors the streaming + kanban delivery paths and
reuses base.should_send_media_as_audio for the Telegram OGG nuance.

* fix(desktop): stabilize project folder sessions
Keep desktop folder selection aligned with new sessions and scope TUI gateway cwd through session context so prompts and tools resolve against the selected workspace.
* fix(desktop): address review feedback on folder sessions
Snapshot sessions before iterating to avoid concurrent-mutation crashes,
optional-chain the revealLogs catch, and read console-message args from
the correct Electron event/messageDetails positions.
* fix(desktop): address second review pass on folder sessions
Sync the remembered workspace key with the cwd atom (clear on empty),
only load tree children for real directory nodes, and throttle renderer
auto-reloads so a deterministic startup crash can't loop forever.
* fix(desktop): inherit parent workspace for ephemeral agent tasks
Background and preview tasks use ephemeral ids absent from the session
map, so pass the parent session cwd into the session context explicitly
instead of clearing it back to the gateway launch dir. Also correct the
set_session_vars docstring about clear_session_vars semantics.
* fix(desktop): validate preview cwd before pinning session context
A non-empty but non-existent client cwd would pin an unusable override
and silently fall back to the launch dir. Validate once, reuse for both
the session context and the terminal override, and fall back to the
parent session workspace when invalid.
* fix(desktop): harden preview cwd normalization and adopt normalized cwd
Guard preview cwd normalization against malformed client paths so a bad
input can't fail the whole restart, and adopt the backend's normalized
config.get cwd in the no-active-session path so the persisted workspace
stays consistent with what the agent uses.
Introduce a typed agent→gateway delivery contract so the gateway (not the
agent) decides how each streaming event is rendered per platform. Moves toward
smart-agent/smart-gateway separation while reproducing today's behavior exactly
in the base class.
- gateway/stream_events.py: typed event vocabulary (MessageChunk/Stop,
Commentary, ToolCallChunk/Finished, LongToolHint, GatewayNotice).
- gateway/stream_dispatch.py: GatewayEventDispatcher routes events through the
adapter; adapters can eat events they can't render (e.g. tool chrome on
plain-text platforms).
- gateway/platforms/base.py: render_message_event + format_tool_event default
hooks reproduce the historical emoji/preview tool formatting and consumer
delegation 1:1; adapters override for native rendering.
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py: send_draft now applies MarkdownV2 (format_message
+ parse_mode) with a plain-text fallback on BadRequest, fixing the jarring
raw-text→formatted shift when the draft finalizes as a real sendMessage.
- gateway/config.py: default streaming transport edit → auto. Safe globally:
adapters without draft support report supports_draft_streaming()==False and
transparently use edit, so only Telegram DMs gain native drafts.
Presentation-only contract — nothing rendered here is persisted to conversation
history, preserving cache/message-flow invariants.
* feat(dashboard): MCP catalog + enable/disable, webhook toggle, hook create/delete, system stats

- MCP: GET /api/mcp/catalog (browse Nous-approved optional-mcps), POST
/api/mcp/catalog/install, PUT /api/mcp/servers/{name}/enabled
- Webhooks: PUT /api/webhooks/{name}/enabled; gateway rejects disabled routes
with 403 (hot-reloaded, no restart)
- Hooks: POST/DELETE /api/ops/hooks — create (with consent approval) + remove;

- System: GET /api/system/stats — OS/arch/python/cpu + psutil memory/disk/
uptime/process, stdlib fallback
All gated by dashboard auth; secrets never returned.
* feat(dashboard): MCP catalog UI, enable/disable toggles, hook create, system stats
- McpPage: catalog section (browse Nous-approved MCPs, one-click install with
env prompts) + per-server enable/disable toggle with gateway-restart note

* docs(dashboard): document the comprehensive admin pass + fresh screenshots
Updates the MCP/Webhooks/Pairing/System sections for catalog browse+install,
enable/disable toggles, hook creation, and host system stats; adds the new

Closes the last in-scope CLI gaps from the coverage audit:
- Curator: GET /api/curator (status), PUT /api/curator/paused, POST
/api/curator/run (background)
- Portal: GET /api/portal (Nous auth + Tool Gateway routing, read-only)
- Diagnostics: POST /api/ops/prompt-size, /api/ops/dump, /api/ops/config-migrate
(backgrounded, tailed via action status)
Host-bound commands (secrets/proxy/lsp/acp/computer-use/desktop/completion/
postinstall/uninstall/claw) remain CLI-only by design.
* feat(dashboard): curator + portal + diagnostics UI, tests
- SystemPage: Nous Portal status section (auth + Tool Gateway routing),
Skill curator card (status + pause/resume + run now), and three new
Operations buttons (prompt size, support dump, migrate config)
- api.ts: client methods + CuratorStatus/PortalStatus types
- tests: curator pause/resume, portal shape, system-stats shape, + auth-gate
coverage for the new GET endpoints (31 tests total)
* docs(dashboard): document curator, portal, and diagnostics + refresh System screenshots
Updates the System section for the Nous Portal status, Skill curator
controls, and the new prompt-size/dump/migrate operations; adds them to the
API table; refreshes the System screenshots (now showing Portal + Curator)
and adds a dedicated curator/gateway/memory capture.
* feat(dashboard): session stats/export/prune + skills hub search endpoints
Completes the existing tabs' backend depth (audit vs CLI):
- Sessions: GET /api/sessions/stats (store stats), GET /api/sessions/{id}/export,
POST /api/sessions/prune. /stats is registered before /{session_id} so the
literal path isn't captured by the parameterized route.
- Skills: GET /api/skills/hub/search — parallel multi-source hub search (threaded),
returns installable identifiers
- (rename via PATCH and cron-edit via PUT already existed; now surfaced in UI)
* feat(dashboard): complete existing tabs — sessions mgmt, skills hub browse, cron edit
Audited every existing tab against its CLI command and filled the gaps:
- Sessions: store stats bar, per-row rename + export (JSON download), and a
prune-old-sessions control (mirrors hermes sessions rename/export/prune/stats)
- Skills: new 'Browse hub' view — search the skill hub across all sources,
install by identifier with a live install log, and 'Update all' (mirrors
hermes skills search/install/update)
- Cron: per-job Edit modal (pre-filled) calling updateCronJob (hermes cron edit)
- api.ts: renameSession/getSessionStats/exportSessionUrl/pruneSessions,
updateCronJob, searchSkillsHub + types
Models tab was already comprehensive (provider+model picker, dynamic per-provider
lists, main + all 11 aux-task assignments, reset) — verified, no change needed.
* test(dashboard): cover session stats/rename/export/prune + skills hub search
Adds the route-shadowing guard for /api/sessions/stats (must not be captured
by /api/sessions/{session_id}), rename/export/prune, and the empty-query
short-circuit for hub search. 36 tests total, all green.
* docs(dashboard): document enhanced Sessions, Skills hub, and Cron edit
Sessions: stats bar, rename, export, prune (+ screenshot). Skills: new Browse
hub view for search/install/update (+ screenshot). Cron: edit action. API
table updated with the new endpoints.
Non-dispatch gateways no longer open per-board kanban DBs for notifier
polling. Mirrors the existing dispatcher gate (config
kanban.dispatch_in_gateway, default True; env override
HERMES_KANBAN_DISPATCH_IN_GATEWAY) so multi-gateway setups collapse to a
single process holding kanban.db file descriptors.
Salvaged from PR #31964 by @steveonjava; tests and docs trimmed during
salvage.
Collapse the per-type observed-media dispatch into one platform-agnostic
cache_media_bytes() helper in gateway/platforms/base.py. Any adapter can now
hand it raw attachment bytes + a filename/MIME hint; it classifies against the
shared MIME registries, routes to the right cache_*_from_bytes helper,
sandbox-translates the path, and returns a CachedMedia with a ready
context_note(). Telegram's observed-group path shrinks to: size-gate, download,
call the helper, annotate. Also dedupes the addressed-media type ladder into
_media_message_type().
Net: contributor's Telegram-only +595 LOC becomes a +210/-32 production change,
with the reusable primitive available to Discord/Slack/Signal/etc.

Collapse the three mention-parsing helpers into one _compile_mention_patterns
that handles list/string/None inputs, and inline the require_mention bool
coercion to match the signal/dingtalk convention. Same behavior, 16 fewer
lines, no per-instance state in the staticmethod.
Cron delivery to WeChat fails with 'Timeout context manager should
be used inside a task' because _api_post and _api_get use aiohttp's
ClientTimeout directly. When the cron scheduler calls send() via
asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe(), aiohttp cannot find a running
task and raises RuntimeError.
_upload_media, _download_bytes, and _download_remote_media already
use asyncio.wait_for() to avoid this. Apply the same pattern to
_api_post and _api_get — the two remaining iLink API helpers that
still use the raw ClientTimeout approach.
This fixes cron delivery errors seen on the WeChat platform adapter
when meyo-external cron jobs attempt to deliver output to WeChat.
