The reachability claim that single-process multi-profile leakage is desktop-
only is incomplete. gateway/run.py:_profile_runtime_scope shows a SECOND such
runtime: the multiplexed gateway (gateway.multiplex_profiles) serves every
profile from one process, scoping each inbound turn with the same
set_hermes_home_override ContextVar the desktop uses (and the /p/<profile>/
URL prefix). The M1 (import-time path globals) and M2 (thread/executor
context) leaks are reachable there identically.
- tests/gateway/test_multiplex_credential_isolation.py: add a class driving the
skills-dir + cache-dir resolvers and a propagated worker thread under the
real _profile_runtime_scope, asserting each resolves the active profile. Sits
beside the existing credential-isolation proofs for the same topology.
- Correct the inline comments in model_tools/run_agent/async_delegation/
rich_sent_store to name both runtimes (desktop tui_gateway AND the
multiplexed gateway) instead of implying desktop is the only surface.
(ACP runs one agent per subprocess and the kanban dispatcher Popens
'hermes -p <profile>' children, so neither is an in-process multi-profile
surface; desktop + multiplexed gateway are the two confirmed ones.)
Adds gateway.platform_connect_timeout (default 30s) to DEFAULT_CONFIG and
bridges it to the internal HERMES_GATEWAY_PLATFORM_CONNECT_TIMEOUT env var
at gateway startup, following the existing gateway_timeout config->env
pattern. The env var remains the manual-override escape hatch and wins if
set explicitly; otherwise config.yaml supplies the value. This closes the
issue's documentation/config-surface request (#19776 suggestion 2) on top
of the adapter ready-wait fix, so users no longer need an undocumented env
var to raise the Discord connect timeout.
Refs #19776
The extension-less MEDIA delivery guards short-circuited on
"MEDIA: not in text and [[audio_as_voice]] not in text", so a
response carrying only [[as_document]] (an image-only reply requesting
unmodified document delivery) leaked the directive as visible text.
Add [[as_document]] to both guard conditions (_strip_media_tag_directives
and strip_media_directives_for_display) and cover it with a regression
test.
Follow-up to liuhao1024's #46924. Route plain-text approval replies
through the canonical /approve and /deny handlers (resolve thread, resume
typing, return localized confirmation) and deliver that confirmation back
to the user — previously a plain 'yes' resolved silently. Synthesize a
literal '/'-prefixed command so get_command_args() parses always/session
modifiers on every platform (is_command() only recognizes '/'). Add E2E
tests covering approve/deny/always/session vocab plus the no-pending and
unrelated-text fall-through cases.
The STT-failure enrichment templates injected setup instructions —
"no STT provider is configured", "a direct message has already been
sent", and a "hermes-agent-setup" skill mention — into the LLM-visible
prompt. That text persists in conversation history, so after one STT
failure the model kept volunteering Whisper/Vosk setup advice on every
later voice turn, even after transcription started working (observed in
prod on gpt-5-nano). The gateway also fired a hardcoded English notice
via _stt_adapter.send(), producing a second, wrong-language reply that
TTS then spoke aloud.
- Neutralize all enrichment templates: success passes the transcript
through as a plain quoted line; every failure branch emits a single
[voice message could not be transcribed] marker.
- Move the operator-facing failure cause to logger.info so it stays
diagnosable in container logs without leaking into the prompt.
- Remove the hardcoded English _stt_adapter.send() notice; the LLM now
produces one coherent reply in the user's language.
- Update the gateway STT tests to assert the neutral contract.

Two independent bugs evicted the cached gateway AIAgent on every turn,
preventing the prompt cache from ever warming:
1. Model normalization mismatch: the post-run fallback-eviction check
compared _agent.model (stripped in AIAgent.__init__) against the raw
_resolve_gateway_model() config string. For vendor-prefixed config on
native providers (e.g. 'deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro' vs 'deepseek-v4-pro')
this was always unequal, so the agent was evicted after every
successful run. Normalize _cfg_model the same way (skip aggregators).
2. Discord triggering message_id leaked into the cached system prompt via
build_session_context_prompt()'s Discord IDs block. message_id changes
every turn, so the agent-cache signature (computed from the ephemeral
prompt) changed every Discord turn -> rebuild every message. The id is
now injected per-turn into the user message (where per-turn content
belongs and does not touch the cache signature); the cached IDs block
carries a static pointer to it, preserving reply/react/pin via the
discord tools.
Adapted from #28846. Bug #1 fix is the contributor's; bug #2 reworked to
be non-destructive (keeps the triggering-id capability instead of deleting
it). Redundant auto-reset eviction (already on main via #9893/#48031) and
the wrong-premise reset_context_note plumbing from the original PR were
dropped.

DiscordAdapter.edit_message clipped any formatted payload over the 2,000-char
cap to [:1997]+"..." and returned success=True, so the stream consumer
believed the full reply landed and stopped — the user lost everything past the
boundary and perceived the agent as quitting mid-task.
edit_message is now overflow-aware, mirroring Telegram's proven contract:
- finalize=True: split-and-deliver via _edit_overflow_split — edit chunk 1 in
place, send chunks 2..N as reply-threaded continuations, return the last
visible id in message_id plus continuation_message_ids so the stream
consumer keeps editing the most recent chunk and can clean them all up.
- finalize=False (mid-stream): truncate a one-message preview in place, never
split. A mid-stream split moves the edit target to a continuation and the
next accumulated-token tick re-splits, looping forever (the Telegram #48648
lesson the original port predated).
- Reactive 50035 '2000 or fewer in length' on edit runs the same branch logic.
- Partial continuation failure still reports success with a partial_overflow
raw_response so the consumer retries the tail instead of marking a clipped
reply complete.

GatewayStreamConsumer.run() processed queued deltas in an infinite loop
with no check on whether the session was still current. On /new or /stop
mid-stream, the consumer kept editing and delivering stale response
fragments alongside the 'Session reset!' ack.
PR #11016 (b7bdf32d) fixed the runner side via sentinel promotion/release
but left the stream consumer unguarded. Every other async callback in
run.py already bails via _run_still_current(); the stream consumer was
the only one missing it.
- stream_consumer.py: optional run_still_current callback, checked at the
top of the run() loop; returns early when the session is stale.
- run.py: pass the existing _run_still_current closure at both call sites
(proxy path and agent path).
- tests: TestRunStillCurrentGuard — immediate staleness, mid-stream
staleness, always-current, no-callback default, pending-finish.

WhatsAppAdapter lives under plugins/platforms/whatsapp/adapter.py on
current upstream; the owner-forward test still imported the removed
gateway.platforms.whatsapp module.
When WHATSAPP_FORWARD_OWNER_MESSAGES is enabled and the bridge marks an
inbound message with fromOwner=true, also prefix MessageEvent.text with
"[owner reply] " at construction time. This makes the disambiguation
survive any downstream plugin failure (e.g. handover-rule errors that
bypass silent_ingest), so transcripts never misattribute owner-typed
text to the customer.
Idempotent: re-applies are guarded so a future producer that pre-tags
text won't be double-prefixed.
In `WHATSAPP_MODE=bot` the bridge currently drops every fromMe inbound
message — they are all assumed to be echoes of our own /send calls.
That makes it impossible for plugins / agents to detect when a human
owner has typed directly into a customer chat from the same WhatsApp
Business account (e.g. via a linked phone or WhatsApp Web).
This adds an opt-in `WHATSAPP_FORWARD_OWNER_MESSAGES` env var. When
true, the bridge classifies fromMe inbound by looking up `key.id` in a
bounded LRU of recently-sent message IDs (the existing 50-entry echo
suppressor, bumped to 512 and extracted to a testable
`outbound_ids.js` helper). Hits in the LRU are still dropped (echoes);
misses are forwarded to the Python adapter with `fromOwner: true`.
The Python adapter lifts that flag onto
`MessageEvent.metadata["whatsapp_from_owner"]`. `metadata` is a new
free-form dict on the event so future per-platform signals don't each
need their own field. Default behaviour is unchanged: with the env
flag unset, bot mode still drops every fromMe message exactly as
before.
Use cases for downstream consumers:
- Implicit handover activation when the owner replies manually
- Sliding TTL on owner activity (keep an active session alive while
the owner is engaged)
- Audit trails of owner interventions
- Analytics on human-vs-bot reply ratios
Heuristic limitation (documented in code): the LRU is in-memory. After
a bridge restart, in-flight delivery receipts of pre-restart sends will
briefly look like owner-typed for a few seconds until the set is
repopulated. Persisting isn't worth the disk churn — downstream
consumers should treat the flag as best-effort.
Tests:
- tests/gateway/test_whatsapp_from_owner.py (new): adapter sets the
metadata flag iff the bridge payload has `fromOwner: true`; absent
otherwise.
- scripts/whatsapp-bridge/outbound_ids.test.mjs (new): LRU bounds,
eviction order, falsy-id handling.
Backwards compatibility: with the env flag unset, every code path is
identical to before. No existing deployment is affected.
The base BasePlatformAdapter implementations of send_voice, send_video,
send_document, and send_image_file forwarded their *_path argument
verbatim into the chat text (e.g. "🎬 Video: /home/.../hermes/cache/...").
Telegram, Discord, and Slack adapters all fall back to those base methods
when their native send raises — so a rejected video on Telegram surfaced
the host filesystem layout to the user instead of a useful message.
Replace the path-echo with a friendly notice, log the path for operator
diagnostics, and keep the user-supplied caption intact. The Slack adapter
had three identical sites that fell through to the same path-echo on its
own native upload failures; fix those too. send_document still surfaces
the caller-provided file_name (or the basename derived from it) since
that is the user-facing filename, not a host path.
Add regression tests asserting the *_path argument never appears in the
fallback content while caption text and explicit file_name still do.
The salvaged test double predated two main changes:
- start() now connects via _connect_adapter_with_timeout, which forwards
is_reconnect to adapter.connect(); the StartupRaceAdapter double didn't
accept the kwarg.
- stop() now awaits _finalize_shutdown_agents (async on main); the fixture
stubbed it as a plain MagicMock.
Accept is_reconnect in the double and use AsyncMock for the finalize stub.
Follow-up to the salvaged #8008 fix:
- Sibling-site fix: _evaluate_slash_authorization gated DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS /
DISCORD_IGNORED_CHANNELS on numeric IDs only, so name/#name config that now works
for on_message still silently failed for slash-command interactions. Refactor the
channel-key helper to _discord_channel_keys_from_channel(channel, parent) and reuse
it at the interaction gate. Fail-closed on missing channel id is preserved.
- The contributor's hardcoded 8s flush deadline could be hard-cancelled mid-flush:
_teardown_adapter already wraps cancel_background_tasks() in the per-adapter
disconnect budget (HERMES_GATEWAY_ADAPTER_DISCONNECT_TIMEOUT, default 5s). The flush
deadline now derives from that budget with headroom so it always completes inside it.
- AUTHOR_MAP: map cypher@augmentl.com -> Nickperillo for CI.
- Tests: slash-auth name/#name allow + name ignore matching.
Two related fixes to the Discord gateway adapter:
1. Channel name matching (free-response, allowed, ignored, no-thread channels)
Previously these config values only matched against numeric channel IDs.
If a user configured free_response_channels: cypher (by name), the adapter
would silently ignore it because it only intersected against channel_ids.
Now the adapter builds a channel_keys set that includes the channel ID,
channel name, and #channel-name form, and checks all three for each gate.
2. Flush pending text-batch tasks before shutdown
The Discord adapter uses _pending_text_batch_tasks (its own dict) for
merging rapid successive message chunks. These tasks were NOT added to
self._background_tasks (the base class list), so the base
cancel_background_tasks() never awaited them on restart/shutdown.
This caused a race: in-flight response deliveries were cancelled before
Discord had a chance to send them, resulting in silent dropped messages
visible to users as tool-log-only replies with no text body.
Fix: override cancel_background_tasks() in DiscordAdapter to await all
pending text-batch tasks (8s deadline) before delegating to the base class.
Detect a routing key whose session is already ended in state.db
(end_reason set) inside get_or_create_session and drop the stale entry
instead of silently routing the message into a closed session.
Previously the only runtime cleanup of sessions.json was the startup
_prune_stale_sessions_locked (#52808/#54138), which requires a restart.
A session ended while the gateway stays alive — any path that finalizes
the DB row without clearing sessions.json — left a live routing key
pointing at a closed session. get_or_create_session never consulted
end_reason, so it returned that stale entry and every subsequent message
was silently dropped (no log, no error, no response) until the next
restart. This is the live-gateway variant of #52804/FM9, which needed an
actual gateway crash.
The guard drops the stale entry and falls through to
_recover_session_from_db, which reopens agent_close-ended rows and
resumes the SAME session_id (transcript preserved); if the row ended for
a non-recoverable reason (e.g. /new) it correctly starts a fresh
session. A warning is logged so the event is visible (the field
incident reported zero log output).
Adds tests/gateway/test_session_store_runtime_stale_guard.py covering
the _is_session_ended_in_db helper and the end-to-end routing self-heal
(recover-vs-fresh, live-entry untouched, stale-wins-over-suspended,
force_new short-circuit).
Closes#54878.

Add a generic per-platform PlatformConfig.typing_indicator flag (default
True) that gates the _keep_typing refresh loop in
_process_message_background. When false, the loop is never spawned, so no
typing/"is thinking…" status is shown on that platform — message delivery
is otherwise unchanged.
Mirrors the gateway_restart_notification contract exactly: dataclass field
+ to_dict/from_dict (with extra-fallback resolution) + shared-key bridge in
load_gateway_config, so 'slack: typing_indicator: false' under platforms
works without a separate block. Generic by design — the same key works for
every platform (Slack 'is thinking…', Telegram/Discord/Signal typing).
Motivated by users who find Slack's assistant 'is thinking…' status noisy
(it also briefly disables the compose box, via the Assistant API).
A Slack user/legacy token (xoxp-...) makes auth.test resolve to the
installing human's member ID with no bot_id, so the adapter binds its
identity (_bot_user_id / _team_bot_user_ids) to that human. Every
"is this the bot?" check then misfires: that person's <@...> mentions
wake the bot and are stripped as the bot's own mention, so the agent is
genuinely told it was @mentioned and replies to messages merely
addressed to that human (symptom: bot responds to "@trevor ..." and
insists it was explicitly mentioned).
There is no runtime API error to catch — a user token still
sends/receives — so the only detectable moment is connect time. Add a
warning-only nudge (_warn_if_not_bot_token) alongside the existing
group-DM scope nudge: when auth.test resolves a user_id but no bot_id,
log that the token is a user token and to use the xoxb-... Bot User
OAuth Token. Warning-only: does not block a working-but-misconfigured
install. Fires once per workspace per process.
Channel users get the same context split the desktop popover shows
(PR #54907) — system prompt, tools, rules, skills, MCP, subagents,
memory, conversation — under the existing Context line in /usage.
Reuses agent.context_breakdown.compute_session_context_breakdown, so
there is no new tool and no new engine. The slices are estimates
(chars/4) and the block is labelled _(estimated)_; the headline
Context line keeps using the provider-measured last_prompt_tokens.
Rendering is fail-open: any engine error returns no breakdown and the
rest of /usage is unaffected.
- gateway/slash_commands.py: _context_breakdown_lines() helper + wire
into _handle_usage_command
- locales/*.yaml: breakdown_header, breakdown_line, and 8 category
labels across all 16 locales (parity gate)
- tests/gateway/test_usage_command.py: render + fail-open coverage
* feat(display): friendly human-phrased tool labels for built-in tools
Built-in tools now render ChatGPT-style status verbs ('Searching the web
for ...', 'Reading <file>', 'Browsing <url>') on the CLI spinner and
gateway/desktop tool-progress instead of the raw tool name.
- agent/display.py: _TOOL_VERBS map + build_tool_label() + set/get
friendly-labels flag (default on). Custom/plugin/MCP tools fall back to
the raw preview; verbose gateway mode left untouched (debug surface).
- tool_executor.py / tui_gateway / gateway: route the three spinner sites,
the TUI _tool_ctx, and the gateway all/new progress line through the label.
- config: display.friendly_tool_labels (default True, per-platform aware).
Zero new core tool / schema footprint — pure display layer.
* docs: add PR infographic for friendly tool labels
* fix(display): preserve arg preview in gateway friendly labels + update tests
The first gateway pass re-derived the label from the callback's `args`, which
is empty ({}) at the gateway tool.started callsite — the command/query lives in
the `preview` string, so terminal rendered as a bare '💻 Running' and dedup
collapsed consecutive commands. Now the gateway prefixes the verb onto the
already-computed preview via get_tool_verb/tool_verb_connector/verb_drops_preview,
preserving the command/url/query. CLI spinner path (real args) keeps build_tool_label.
Tests: update test_run_progress_topics exact-format assertions to the friendly
form ('💻 Running pwd'), add a format-agnostic preview extractor for the
truncation tests (works for both quoted-legacy and verb-prefixed output).
* test(tui): update resume-display context to friendly tool label
_tool_ctx now uses build_tool_label, so the desktop resume-view context for a
search_files turn reads 'Searching files for resume' instead of the bare
'resume' preview — consistent with live tool-progress. Update the assertion.
* test(tui): harden no-race worker test against sibling shard leakage
test_session_create_no_race_keeps_worker_alive flaked under -j 8: a daemon
build thread leaked from a prior session.create test in the same shard process
fires close/unregister against its own (foreign) session_key after this test
patches the global approval hooks, polluting the captured lists. Scope the
assertions to this session's own session_key so the regression intent
(this session's worker/notify must survive) is preserved while the test
becomes immune to shard composition. Not related to friendly-tool-labels.
The topic-mode helpers (_telegram_topic_mode_enabled,
_recover_telegram_topic_thread_id, _record/_sync_telegram_topic_binding,
_is_telegram_topic_lane/_root_lobby, _normalize_source_for_session_key,
_telegram_topic_new_header, _schedule_telegram_topic_title_rename, and the
base.py _apply_topic_recovery hook) each run a synchronous SessionDB read or
write. They reach the event loop through async handlers, so a contended
state.db froze the loop the same way the handoff watcher did.
These helpers already run off-loop in the run_sync thread-pool closure, so
they are proven thread-safe there. Rather than colour them async, loop-side
callers now invoke them via asyncio.to_thread(...); the executor callers are
unchanged. Inside the helpers the SessionDB handle is unwrapped to the sync
door (getattr(db, '_db', db)) since they always run on a worker thread, and
AIAgent construction + query_session_listing are handed the sync SessionDB
directly. base.py wraps its single _apply_topic_recovery call in to_thread.
The guard is now alias-aware (catches db = getattr(self, '_session_db', None);
db.method(...)) and enforces the offload contract: the offloaded sync helpers
may never be called bare on the loop. Sibling test fixtures wrap their injected
SessionDB in AsyncSessionDB to match how the gateway holds it.
* fix(gateway): skip confirmed-dead delivery targets (deleted groups, blocked bots)
A deleted Telegram group, kicked/blocked bot, or deactivated user keeps
throwing Forbidden/not_found on every cron tick and fan-out delivery. Each
retry burns a send against the platform's flood-control envelope and spams
the logs, making the whole session feel broken even when the model call
completed.
Add a small persistent DeadTargetRegistry (per-profile JSON under
HERMES_HOME) that records a target the moment a send reports a whole-chat
death (forbidden / chat-level not_found), and have DeliveryRouter.deliver()
short-circuit it on subsequent attempts. Self-healing: any successful send
clears the flag, so a user re-adding the bot recovers with no manual cleanup.
Thread/topic-level not_found is NOT recorded (adapters already self-heal that
by retrying without reply_to). Transient/timeout errors are never marked dead.
* infographic: dead delivery target skipping
Add a generic suppress_notification flag to the drain-request marker. When a
drain that ends in process exit (e.g. a NAS auto-update image migration on the
always-on Hermes Cloud fleet) is flagged, the gateway skips ONLY the
home-channel 'gateway shutting down' broadcast — the operator-flavoured ping
that would otherwise fire on every routine auto-update, dozens of times a day.
The per-active-session interrupt ping is ALWAYS kept: on a drained shutdown
it's empty by construction, and in the force-interrupt (deadline-exceeded) case
it carries the user-valuable 'your task was cut off, message me to resume' hint.
The gateway stays agnostic about WHY a drain is quiet (generic boolean, not a
kind enum); the policy of which drain causes set the flag lives in the caller
(NAS). Default-false so legacy/operator drains behave exactly as before. The
reader reuses the NS-570 epoch-staleness check so an orphaned marker on the
durable volume can never silence a fresh gateway's legitimate broadcast.
- drain_control.py: write_drain_request gains suppress_notification; new
drain_notification_suppressed() reader (current-epoch + truthy flag).
- web_server.py: /api/gateway/drain reads + echoes the flag.
- run.py: _notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown skips the home-channel loop only.
Tests prove: flag round-trips; home-channel suppressed when set, kept when
unset; active-session ping always fires; stale/legacy/corrupt markers never
suppress.
Widen #5961's _format_untrusted_prompt_value coverage to the Matrix
room display name (**Matrix Room:**), a sibling attacker-controllable
field the original fix missed. chat_name is user-settable, so an
injected room name could render as literal markdown in the system
prompt. Adds a regression test.
Defense-in-depth on top of _safe_session_filename_component (#5958):
Sink (makes the bad write impossible regardless of entry point):
- run_agent._save_session_log: sanitize session_id before building the
session_{sid}.json snapshot path.
- agent_runtime_helpers.dump_api_request_debug: sanitize before building
the request_dump_{sid}_{ts}.json path.
Boundary (clean 400 instead of a silently-hashed filename):
- api_server rejects path-traversal-shaped X-Hermes-Session-Id on the
session-continuation path and the explicit /api/sessions create path,
reusing gateway.session._is_path_unsafe (mirrors the native gateway's
entry-boundary guard). Also enforces the session-header length cap on
the continuation path.
Tests: traversal session_id stays contained at the write site; sanitizer
always yields a traversal-free segment; the API header rejects
../, absolute, and Windows-traversal IDs with 400.
The reset-had-activity tests set total_tokens (dead state) to simulate
activity; production records activity via last_prompt_tokens. Update
the fixtures to match the field the fix and runtime actually use.
Fixes#14238. During a compression/session split at the response
boundary, the interim callback delivered unrelated commentary, setting
response_previewed=True. The suppression logic treated that as proof the
final reply had been delivered and skipped the normal send — the response
was persisted to the child session but never sent to chat.
Only suppress the normal final send when the stream consumer confirms
final delivery (final_response_sent / final_content_delivered) or the
exact final response text was delivered as a preview.
Follow-up to the group-DM manifest fix. The manifest change only helps
NEW installs; existing apps keep their old (mpim-less) scopes until the
admin reinstalls. Since a missing message.mpim event delivers nothing
(no runtime API error to catch), detect stale installs at connect time
from the auth.test x-oauth-scopes header and log an actionable reinstall
nudge when im:history is granted but mpim:history is not. Also promote
message.mpim from Recommended to Required in the docs event tables so the
default setup path can't drop it.
The WeCom callback endpoint (internet-facing, 0.0.0.0) parsed untrusted
request bodies before signature verification. defusedxml already guards
the entity-expansion class on main, but there was no cap on raw body
size, so an unauthenticated POST could still force unbounded read work
pre-auth.
Set client_max_size=64KB on the aiohttp app (413 at the framework layer)
plus an explicit length guard in _handle_callback as defense in depth.
WeCom callbacks are small encrypted XML envelopes — media is delivered
out-of-band via MediaId, never inline — so 64KB is ample for legitimate
traffic. Adds tests for oversized (413) and normal-sized (not 413) bodies.
Salvaged from #10192 by @memosr (body-size limit half; defusedxml half
already superseded on main).
Relocate marco0158's eviction into the dedicated auto-reset cleanup block
(single source of truth for dropping session-scoped transient state) and
add an AST invariant pinning _evict_cached_agent into that block. Add
AUTHOR_MAP entry for marco0158.
/resume is a conversation boundary, but unlike /new it did not clear the
chat-keyed _session_model_overrides / _pending_model_notes. A /model switch
made in the previous session under the same chat session_key leaked into the
resumed conversation, running it on the wrong model.
Clear both maps for the session_key after the switch (mirroring /new), scoped
to that key so other chats' overrides are untouched. The cached-agent eviction
this leak also implied already landed via #6672.
Closes#10702.
_on_invite now rejects auto-joins from users not on the allow-list. The
DM-recording tests invite @alice and expect a join, so the shared
_make_adapter fixture now puts @alice on _allowed_user_ids.
yuanbao_media.download_url() fetched model-supplied (outbound) and inbound
image/file URLs server-side via httpx with follow_redirects=True and no
SSRF check. A model response containing <img src="http://169.254.169.254/...">
routed through ImageUrlHandler -> download_url and would fetch cloud-metadata
endpoints; same for inbound media.
Add an is_safe_url() pre-flight plus an async redirect event-hook that
re-validates every 30x target, matching the cache_image_from_url() guard in
gateway/platforms/base.py. The other gateway adapters already guard their
URL-fetch paths; this was the remaining unguarded one.
Removed/unauthorized Telegram users could inject prompt content before the
per-user auth gate fired. The adapter ran `_should_process_message`,
`_build_message_event`, and text/photo batching — and dispatched to the
runner — before `_is_user_authorized()` (gateway/authz_mixin.py) rejected
the sender. Unmentioned group chatter from a removed user was also
persisted into the session transcript via `_observe_unmentioned_group_message`,
leaking into the agent's observed context independent of dispatch.
Add `_is_user_authorized_from_message()` as an intake prefilter that runs
in `_handle_text_message`, `_handle_command`, `_handle_location_message`,
and `_handle_media_message` BEFORE batching, event construction, and the
unmentioned-group observe branch. It reuses the runner's
`_is_user_authorized()` with a correctly-shaped SessionSource (group vs
forum vs dm, real chat_id for TELEGRAM_GROUP_ALLOWED_* allowlists),
falls back to env allowlists, and only rejects when an allowlist actually
exists — unknown DMs with no allowlist still reach the pairing flow.
Channel posts authorize via `sender_chat` identity when `from_user` is
absent.

The Windows desktop GUI runs its backend headless via pythonw.exe. Several
auxiliary subprocess sites that run inside that windowless backend spawned
console-subsystem children (git, gh, wmic, powershell, bash, rg, taskkill)
WITHOUT CREATE_NO_WINDOW, so Windows allocated a fresh conhost per call and
flashed a black window on screen — sometimes continuously (the dashboard
Projects-tree git probe alone fired ~118 spawns in 60s on startup).
The terminal tool, cron, browser, code_execution, and gateway-spawn paths
already carry windows_hide_flags(); these auxiliary probe/scan/launcher legs
were missed. Wire the existing helper into them:

the former needs a Windows-tested change of its own, the latter runs in a
visible console anyway.

When a stale lock file survives a gateway crash, `acquire_scoped_lock()`
may return `(False, existing_dict)` even after detecting and deleting
the stale lock (e.g. if unlink fails or a race condition occurs).
Previously, `_acquire_platform_lock()` called
`_set_fatal_error(..., retryable=False)`, which permanently killed the
platform — the reconnect watcher never retries a non-retryable fatal
error.
Change to `retryable=True` so the platform enters the "retrying"
state and the reconnect watcher can attempt acquisition again after the
standard backoff delay.
Fixes#54167
Under systemd Restart=always, the old gateway becomes a zombie (in the
process table, awaiting reap) when the replacement starts. _pid_exists()
reported the zombie as alive, so --replace waited on a PID that never
dies, then aborted with exit 1 — a silent crash loop. Standalone runs are
unaffected because nothing respawns the gateway into a zombie.
The live path is psutil.pid_exists(), which returns True for zombies, so
the check is added there (Process.status() == STATUS_ZOMBIE -> dead). The
psutil-less POSIX fallback also reads /proc/<pid>/stat (state Z) with a ps
state= fallback for macOS/BSD, before the os.kill(pid, 0) liveness probe.
Diagnosis and the /proc + ps POSIX fallback by MorAlekss (PR #44898);
extended to cover the psutil hot path so the fix applies on normal installs.

The merged CLOSE-WAIT heartbeat (#52744) only probes get_me(), which uses the
general request path and stays healthy while PTB's getUpdates consumer is
silently wedged (updater.running=True but the long-poll task is stuck, observed
on WSL2). DMs then queue in the Bot API and never reach handlers (#42909).
Augment the existing _polling_heartbeat_loop to also probe
get_webhook_info().pending_update_count. After two consecutive probes that see a
non-draining queue while the updater claims to be running, escalate into the
existing _handle_polling_network_error recovery ladder — no new restart
machinery. No-ops in webhook mode, when the updater is not running, or when a
reconnect is already in flight.
Credit to @gazzumatteo, whose PR #42959 identified the pending_update_count
signal as the missing liveness probe. This reuses the existing heartbeat +
recovery path rather than adding a parallel watchdog.
Fixes#42909.
Config-backed quick_commands bypassed the admin-only slash gate. The
early gate in _handle_message only fires for registry-known commands
(is_gateway_known_command), but quick_commands are never in the gateway
registry, so they reached the type:exec dispatch sink unchecked. An
allowlisted non-admin gateway user could invoke admin-only quick
commands — including shell exec in the gateway process — even when the
operator set allow_admin_from / user_allowed_commands to lock them out.
Apply _check_slash_access(source, command) at the quick_commands
dispatch site (the single exec chokepoint, cold-path only) using the
raw typed name. Admins and users with the command in
user_allowed_commands still run it; backward-compat (no policy set)
is unaffected.
Fixes#44727.

A hard gateway crash (exit code 1) skips the graceful shutdown path, so
sessions.json is never cleared and is left pointing at sessions already
ended in state.db. On the next startup get_or_create_session() reuses
those stale entries as long as the time/policy reset checks pass — it
never consults end_reason — so every incoming message is silently routed
into a closed session, with no log or error (#52804).
SessionStore._ensure_loaded_locked() now calls a new
_prune_stale_sessions_locked() that drops any entry whose session_id has
end_reason IS NOT NULL in state.db. Idempotent, _db=None / legacy-absent
safe, DB errors non-fatal, sessions.json rewritten only when something
was pruned. Self-heals into a fresh session on the next message.
Reported and diagnosed by @terry197913 (#52808).
#35994 moved /new reset cleanup off the loop, but _cleanup_agent_resources
(agent.close() subprocess teardown; shutdown_memory_provider() plugin IO) was
still called INLINE on the event loop from three other sites:
- _session_expiry_watcher (5-min idle sweep) — live loop
- _handle_message_with_agent cache-hygiene re-eviction — live loop
- _finalize_shutdown_agents / stop() idle-cache loop — shutdown
A wedged memory provider on any of these froze the loop: bot goes silent,
runtime-status updated_at heartbeat stops advancing, and SIGTERM can't be
serviced (requires kill -9) — exactly the #53175 zombie pattern.
Adds _cleanup_agent_resources_off_loop: a bounded (30s) worker-thread offload
mirroring the #35994 reset fix, and routes all four sites through it.
Rebase onto plugins/platforms/matrix/adapter.py (code moved from
gateway/platforms/matrix.py). Same logic: _on_invite checks is_direct
on invite events and calls _record_dm_room to persist in m.direct
account data.
Fixes#44679
- read_text(encoding='utf-8') (PLW1514)
- # windows-footgun: ok on signal.SIGKILL — module is Linux-only (reads
/proc, /sys/fs/cgroup; runs from a systemd unit)
- test lambda accepts the new encoding kwarg
Long-lived helpers spawned indirectly by tool calls (adb, platform
bridges) were left in the service cgroup after the gateway's main
process exited. When the kernel rejected the deferred cgroup-wide kill
with EINVAL, systemd blocked Restart=always for 6+ minutes, taking
down all platforms and cron windows (#37454).
Add a small ExecStopPost helper (gateway.cgroup_cleanup) that walks
cgroup.procs and sends per-PID SIGKILLs — a different kernel code path
than cgroup.kill, so it succeeds where the cgroup-wide write failed.
KillMode=mixed is preserved so the gateway still reaps its own
tool-call children before systemd intervenes (#8202).

Follow-up to the salvaged #37733 fix. The contributor centralized
redaction at _openai_error and the chat/responses failure paths, which
covers the OpenAI-compatible envelopes transitively. Two sibling classes
crossed the same authenticated HTTP boundary unredacted:
- 8x cron-management endpoints returning {"error": str(e)} on 500
- the session-chat SSE error event ({"message": str(exc)})
Route both through the same _redact_api_error_text(force=True) helper.
Add AUTHOR_MAP entry for coygeek and a TestRedactApiErrorText guard
covering mask/force/limit/passthrough behavior.
Force API-server error text through the existing secret redactor before returning OpenAI-compatible errors, response fallback text, response snapshots, and run failure events. This prevents credential-shaped provider failure text from crossing the API-server boundary while preserving debuggable sanitized messages.
Add an _is_user_authorized E2E for the platforms/whatsapp/session layout
on top of fesalfayed's resolver fix (#36665) — guards the actual
silently-dropped-LID-sender path from #36664.
expand_whatsapp_aliases hardcoded get_hermes_home()/whatsapp/session, but
the adapter writes lid-mapping files via get_hermes_dir("platforms/whatsapp/
session", "whatsapp/session"). On installs without the legacy directory the
two paths diverge, so the resolver finds no mappings and returns the bare LID,
which misses the allowlist and silently drops the message. Resolve through the
same helper so both sides stay in lockstep on new and legacy layouts.
* fix(telegram): clear send_path_degraded on successful reconnect
_send_path_degraded was cleared only in _verify_polling_after_reconnect,
60s after reconnect and only if scheduled. A clean start_polling() reconnect
left the flag stuck True, short-circuiting send() and blocking all outbound
messages until the deferred probe ran (or forever if it never did).
Clear the flag the moment start_polling() succeeds — that is the recovery
signal. The deferred probe remains a defensive re-check that re-enters the
reconnect ladder (re-setting the flag) if it detects a silent wedge.
Fixes#35205.
* docs: add infographic for #35205 telegram send-path fix
A restart now interrupts in-flight agents immediately rather than holding
the gateway open for a grace window. The previous 180s default coupled two
independently-set timers: the gateway's own drain timer and systemd's
TimeoutStopSec. On a stale unit where TimeoutStopSec < drain, systemd
SIGKILLed the gateway mid-cleanup, leaving a stale lock that made the next
startup exit immediately ('already running') — an infinite crash loop under
Restart=on-failure (#31981).
Setting drain to 0 makes the mismatch structurally impossible: with drain 0
the generated unit gets TimeoutStopSec=90 against a near-instant drain, so
systemd never kills mid-cleanup. Contract: restart the gateway, in-flight
work stops. A grace window large enough to 'save' a long agent turn would
have to outlast an unbounded task, which is impossible.
Also fixes the stale-unit warning's suggested command
(hermes gateway service install --replace -> hermes gateway install --force);
the former subcommand does not exist.
Closes#31981
Generated images under a profile gateway's cache (profiles/<name>/cache/
images/...) were silently dropped from Telegram/Discord delivery when
HERMES_HOME is symlinked under a denied prefix (e.g. /opt/data ->
/root/.hermes) and $HOME is not that prefix. The resolved path lands
under /root (a system denylist prefix), the root-home exception only
fires when the denied prefix IS $HOME, and the static safe-roots list
only covers the active HERMES_HOME's top-level cache — not per-profile
cache dirs. Both gates fail, so validate_media_delivery_path returns
None and the gateway logs 'Skipping unsafe MEDIA directive path'.
_media_delivery_allowed_roots() now also enumerates per-profile cache
roots (<root>/profiles/*/cache/{images,audio,videos,documents,
screenshots}) at check time. Allowlist match runs before the denylist,
so the profile artifact delivers regardless of the /root interaction;
profile-dir credentials (auth.json) stay blocked since they aren't
under a cache subdir.
Reopened regression of #34485/#38108, neither of which covered the
profile-scoped symlink case. Fixes#31733.
Telegram polling entered a self-inflicted ~31s loop of 409 Conflict ->
retry -> resume -> Conflict. The error_callback PTB invokes synchronously
inside its internal network_retry_loop only scheduled our async recovery
task (loop.create_task) and returned, so PTB kept polling getUpdates on its
own while our handler concurrently ran stop -> sleep -> start_polling. The
two polling sessions overlapped and Telegram returned a fresh 409.
Fix: in the conflict branch of the error_callback, synchronously set PTB's
private polling stop_event before scheduling recovery. PTB's loop exits on
its next tick (it races that event in do_action), so our handler owns
polling alone. The handler's await updater.stop() drains the task and PTB
clears the event, so the subsequent start_polling() builds a fresh event
and is not poisoned.
Keeps the existing reconnect ladder intact (option B) — fixes only the
race. Defensive: probes mangled + unmangled stop_event spellings and no-ops
(prior behaviour) if neither exists; never flips _running, which would make
the handler skip stop() and leave the loop wedged.
Follow-up to the cherry-picked #29212 (#29177):
- Promote the 24h stale-process threshold to config.yaml
(session_reset.bg_process_max_age_hours) instead of a hardcoded
constant. 0 disables the cutoff (legacy: any live process blocks reset).
Wired through GatewayConfig.default_reset_policy in gateway/run.py.
- Bug 2: process(action=list) now resolves the gateway session_key from
the contextvar and surfaces session-scoped background processes (a
forgotten preview server under a different task), flagged
session_scoped — so the agent/user can discover and kill the blocker.
Previously the task-scoped list returned [] and the blocker was invisible.
- Tests: config round-trip for the new field, cross-task list visibility.
- Docs: messaging session-reset section.
Two profile gateway services sharing the default ~/.hermes resolve the
takeover marker to the same path. A --replace from profile B could land
in profile A's marker, match on PID + start_time by coincidence of a
shared PID namespace, and make profile A exit 0 — only to be revived by
systemd Restart=always, which races the replacer again, flapping
indefinitely.
write_takeover_marker now stamps replacer_hermes_home; the shared
consume path rejects markers written under a different HERMES_HOME and
leaves them in place for the correct profile. Absent field (older
markers) is treated as same-home, so single-profile and mixed old/new
deployments are unaffected.
Salvaged from #31414 by @CryptoByz onto current main (branch was ~3962
commits behind; the consume function had since been refactored for
issue #34597). Co-authored-by: CryptoByz.
The Discord adapter could enter a silent zombie state after a network
outage / proxy stall: the process is alive, _client looks open, but the
underlying socket is dead. discord.py's WebSocket reconnect never sees a
RST through a wedged proxy/NAT, so client.start() spins forever without
exiting — which means the bot-task done callback (which only fires on
task completion) never trips either. The bot stays "offline" in Discord
until a manual `hermes gateway restart`. Reported offline for 13-17h.
Adds an out-of-band REST liveness probe in DiscordAdapter. Every
`discord.liveness_interval_seconds` (default 60s) the adapter issues a
cheap fetch_user(bot_id) — the same REST path as message delivery, so it
fails when the proxy/NAT is wedged. After
`discord.liveness_failure_threshold` consecutive failures (default 3) the
probe closes the wedged client and surfaces a retryable fatal error,
which trips the gateway's existing _platform_reconnect_watcher and
rebuilds the adapter. Operators disable it by setting either knob to 0.
Config lives in config.yaml (discord.liveness_*) per the .env-is-secrets
policy; _apply_yaml_config bridges it to internal env vars the adapter
reads, matching the existing HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_* pattern.

A document attached alongside an image in the same Discord message was
swept into the vision pipeline and 400'd the whole turn ("Could not
process image"), and was simultaneously never surfaced to the agent as a
readable file. Restores the "any file type works" contract for mixed
messages and fixes the HTTP 400.
Bug 1 — mixed attachments: the inbound routing loop keyed image/audio/video
classification off the message-level type (PHOTO/VOICE/AUDIO), so a doc in
a PHOTO message landed in image_paths and poisoned the vision call. The
document context-note path was gated on message_type == DOCUMENT, so that
same doc never reached the agent at all. Now classification is
per-attachment (trust each attachment's own MIME; fall back to the
message-level type only when MIME is unknown), via shared _event_media_is_*
helpers used by both _build_media_placeholder and the main inbound loop.
The document note now fires for any non-image/audio/video attachment
regardless of message-level type.
Bug 2 — uncommon formats: AVIF/HEIC/BMP/TIFF/ICO produced the same generic
400 because providers only accept PNG/JPEG/GIF/WEBP. image_routing now
transcodes those to PNG via Pillow before declaring media_type, skipping
cleanly (logged) if Pillow/plugins are missing. SVG is vector — Pillow
can't rasterize it — so it's skipped rather than transcoded.
Closes#25935.

When a Telegram attachment download/cache fails (typically a transient
httpx.ConnectError to Telegram's CDN), the except handler logged a warning
and fell through to handle_message() with empty media and no text — the user
thought the file was delivered, the agent saw a content-less turn with no
signal an attachment was attempted, and the only record was a buried log line.
Adds _surface_media_cache_failure(): replies to the user in Telegram so they
know to retry, and appends an agent-visible notice to event.text via the
existing _append_observed_note channel so the agent knows an attachment was
attempted and failed. No new event fields (structured-event refactor is out
of scope per #23045). Wired into all five cache-failure sites — photo, voice,
audio, video, document — since they shared the identical silent fall-through.
Bug 1 from #23045 (unsupported types routed as fake user messages) no longer
exists on main: the document handler now accepts any file type, so there is no
rejection branch to fix.
Closes#23045
DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS="*" now means "allow everyone", matching the
SIGNAL_ALLOWED_USERS / DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS wildcard convention and
the value `claw migrate` emits. Previously _is_allowed_user did exact
ID matching only, so "*" matched no user and blocked every non-self
sender — a P1 with no workaround.
Three sites, all required for the fix to hold at runtime:
- _is_allowed_user: short-circuit when "*" is in the allowlist.
- connect(): exclude "*" from the intents.members trigger so the
wildcard does not request the privileged Server Members intent
(which can block the bot from coming online).
- _resolve_allowed_usernames: preserve "*" verbatim; otherwise it lands
in the username-resolution bucket, matches no member, and is silently
dropped from the set and env var on the first on_ready — quietly
undoing the fix.
Slash auth delegates to _is_allowed_user (auto-covered); component auth
already honors "*" on main.
The gateway banner promises 'chat responses are scrubbed before delivery',
but _redact_gateway_user_facing_secrets used a divergent 6-pattern subset that
leaked credential shapes the comprehensive agent.redact catches — notably the
GitHub fine-grained PAT (github_pat_...) and the Telegram bot-token shape
(bot<digits>:<token>), the gateway's own credential type.
_redact_gateway_user_facing_secrets now delegates to
agent.redact.redact_sensitive_text(force=True) — the same Tirith-grade redactor
already applied to logs, tool output, and approval-command prompts — so the
outbound LLM-response path (final_response -> _sanitize_gateway_final_response)
masks the full credential set. The narrow local pattern set is kept as a
fail-soft second pass. force=True honors redaction even when
security.redact_secrets is off, matching _redact_approval_command.
Test: regression guard parametrizing all 5 issue shapes x every chat surface;
asserts secret body never reaches the user and surrounding prose survives. The
existing bearer-token test's marker assertion is loosened from the literal
'[REDACTED]' to mask-agnostic (the redactor masks as '***'/partial) — it
asserts the security invariant, not the implementation's mask string.
The main stop loop in _stop_impl() awaited adapter.cancel_background_tasks()
and adapter.disconnect() with no timeout, for both the primary and the
secondary-profile (multiplex) adapter maps. A half-dead platform — a wedged
Feishu/Lark WebSocket thread blocked on network I/O is the reported case —
makes one of those awaits block forever, so the process never exits. systemd
then SIGKILLs it after TimeoutStopSec, skipping atexit PID-file cleanup, and
the next start dies with 'PID file race lost' and enters a restart loop.
The per-adapter timeout infra already existed on main
(_adapter_disconnect_timeout_secs / HERMES_GATEWAY_ADAPTER_DISCONNECT_TIMEOUT,
default 5s) but was only wired into _safe_adapter_disconnect, which the
teardown path never calls.
Add _bounded_adapter_teardown(): wraps BOTH cancel_background_tasks() and
disconnect() in the existing timeout budget, logs and forces forward progress
on timeout, and never raises. Both teardown loops now route through it, so the
stop sequence always completes regardless of any adapter's internal behavior
and PID-file cleanup runs.
Original report + fix direction by @happy5318 (#14128, #14130); this widens it
to cover cancel_background_tasks(), the multiplex loop, and the config knob.

display.thinking_progress is documented as independent of tool_progress —
users can keep tool progress quiet while opting into mid-turn assistant
scratch-text bubbles. But two gates were keyed on tool_progress_enabled alone,
so with tool_progress:off the _thinking relay was silently dead even when
thinking_progress:true:
1. agent.tool_progress_callback was set to None unless tool_progress_enabled,
so the callback that queues _thinking text never fired.
2. The send_progress_messages drain task was only started when
tool_progress_enabled, so even queued messages had no consumer.
Both now gate on needs_progress_queue (tool_progress OR thinking_progress) —
the same condition that already decides whether to create the progress queue
at all. No effect when both are off (queue is None) or when tool_progress is
on (unchanged).
Tests: _thinking relays with thinking_progress:on/tool_progress:off, and is
suppressed when thinking_progress:off. Full progress-topics suite: 35 pass.
* fix(windows): stop terminal-window popups from background spawns
Native-Windows desktop/gateway users saw cmd/conhost windows flash on
gateway restart, image paste, the dashboard Projects tree, voice notes,
and ~5 min after closing the app (detached cron). Two root causes:
- Console-subsystem exes (taskkill, schtasks, wmic, netstat, tasklist,
agent-browser, git, ffmpeg, powershell, git-bash) spawned via raw
subprocess allocate a fresh console when the launching process has
none (pythonw desktop backend / detached gateway) - even with output
captured.
- uv venv pythonw shims re-exec console python.exe, so Python children
get a console regardless of how they're launched.
Fixes:
- Single hidden-spawn primitive (_subprocess_compat.run/.popen) that ORs
CREATE_NO_WINDOW on Windows, no-op on POSIX. Route every Hermes-owned
console-exe spawn through it.
- FreeConsole() catch-all in hermes_bootstrap: any Python child that
exclusively owns an auto-allocated console detaches it at startup
(GetConsoleProcessList()==1 gate leaves shared interactive consoles
untouched).
- Replace PowerShell/wmic gateway PID scans with in-process psutil.
- Skip schtasks queries on non-interactive desktop restarts.
- Prefer native agent-browser .exe over .cmd shims.
- Guard test bans raw subprocess spawns of the Windows-only console
tools repo-wide so the popup class can't regress.
* fix(windows): scope FreeConsole to background entry points; fix merge fallout
Console detach review (per #53810 feedback): GetConsoleProcessList()==1 can't
tell a uv pythonw->python phantom console apart from a user opening the
interactive CLI/TUI in its own fresh console (double-click, shortcut, ConPTY) —
both report a single attached process with a tty. Running FreeConsole() in the
import-time bootstrap therefore risked detaching a legitimately-interactive
terminal.
- Extract FreeConsole into explicit hermes_bootstrap.detach_orphan_console();
remove it from apply_windows_utf8_bootstrap() (import side effect).
- Call it only from known background mains: gateway run, dashboard backend
(start_server, what the desktop spawns), cron standalone, tui_gateway entry,
slash worker. Interactive CLI/TUI never calls it.
- Behavior-contract tests: frees only when solo owner, leaves shared console,
no-op without console / on POSIX, and asserts it's not an import side effect.
Merge fallout from origin/main (#53791):
- local.py: 3-way merge left a dangling **_popen_kwargs (NameError crashing
every terminal init). _subprocess_compat.popen already hides the window, so
drop it.
- discord adapter: merge stacked an undefined windows_hide_flags() onto the
primitive call; drop the redundant arg.
- test_gateway: scan now goes psutil-first (zero spawn); rewrite the
case-variant test to drive that production path.
* test(claw): mock _subprocess_compat.run seam for Windows process scan
claw.py's Windows tasklist/powershell scan routes through the hidden-spawn
primitive; the tests still patched claw_mod.subprocess, so on win32 the mock
was never hit and real spawns returned nothing. Patch the actual seam.
test_config_bridges_telegram_group_settings and
test_config_bridges_telegram_user_allowlists asserted the YAML→env bridge
via os.environ. A developer's real ~/.hermes/.env can repopulate TELEGRAM_*
vars during load_gateway_config(): the microsoft_teams plugin runs
load_dotenv(find_dotenv(usecwd=True)) at import time, which walks up from the
cwd (under ~/.hermes/ in worktrees) and reloads the user's .env, defeating the
env-over-YAML bridge for any key present there (e.g. TELEGRAM_GROUP_ALLOWED_CHATS).
Assert the returned PlatformConfig.extra instead — it is parsed straight from
the test's config.yaml and is immune to that ambient leak. free_response_chats
is bridged to the env var only (not extra), and TELEGRAM_FREE_RESPONSE_CHATS
doesn't appear in developer .env files, so it stays a deterministic os.environ
assertion.
The Telegram/Discord /model command's actual switch calls switch_model()
directly on the asyncio event loop. switch_model() can fall through to a
synchronous models.dev HTTP fetch (requests.get, 15s timeout) on a cold or
expired cache, freezing the gateway for up to 15s and dropping the Telegram
connection while a user switches models.
The picker provider-list and fallback text-list sites were already offloaded
(#41289), but the two _switch_model() calls — the picker callback and the
direct /model <name> path — were not. Wrap both in asyncio.to_thread.
Closes#20525.
The adapter-level intake gate (_is_dm_allowed / _is_group_allowed, reached
via _should_process_message) did a raw set-membership check against the
configured allowlist. WhatsApp now delivers inbound DM senders in LID form
(<id>@lid) while operators configure allowlists with phone numbers, so the
check never matched and every DM from an allowed contact was silently
dropped before the gateway authz layer ran.
Route both gates through the existing gateway.whatsapp_identity.
expand_whatsapp_aliases helper (already used by gateway authz and session
keys), which walks the bridge's lid-mapping-*.json session files. Phone and
LID forms now resolve to each other in both directions; exact JID matches,
wildcard, disabled/open policies, and empty-allowlist fail-closed behavior
are all preserved.
Fixes#14486
Add an explicit _closing guard to both owned executors so the
recreate-on-shutdown path only recovers from an *external* teardown of
the loop default — never resurrects a pool the gateway/adapter itself
stopped. _shutdown_*executor() sets the flag; _get_*executor() raises if
closing; feishu connect() re-arms on reconnect. Updates the gateway
recreate test to assert the refusal contract and adds feishu coverage.
Feishu SDK calls ran on asyncio's shared default executor, so a torn-down
default executor wedged every send with 'Executor shutdown has been called'
and left the gateway a zombie (#10849). The adapter now owns a
ThreadPoolExecutor recreated on demand if shut down, mirroring the
gateway-owned executor change. Routes all 17 self._client SDK calls through
_run_blocking; shuts the pool down on disconnect.
TELEGRAM_HOME_CHANNEL set to an @username (not a numeric chat ID) crashed
all webhook/cron->Telegram home-channel delivery with 'ValueError: invalid
literal for int()'. The Telegram Bot API accepts both a numeric chat_id and
an @username string; Hermes was force-coercing every chat_id with int().
Add normalize_telegram_chat_id() (returns int for numeric values, passes
@username strings through) and apply it at the Bot API send/edit sites in
the Telegram adapter and the send_message tool. Username targets are now
recognized as explicit targets in _parse_target_ref.
Reapplies the approach from #13274 (season179), whose branch predated the
gateway/platforms/telegram.py -> plugins/platforms/telegram/adapter.py
relocation. Dupes: #13535 (Tranquil-Flow), #37572 (chewkaah).

Follow-up on the cherry-picked #13173 fix. Holds the _run_restart task in
self._restart_task (a bare asyncio.create_task keeps only a weak reference,
so a still-pending task can be GC'd mid-flight) and explicitly skips it in
the _stop_impl cancel loop alongside _stop_task. Adds AUTHOR_MAP entry for
the contributor and a regression test that fails when the task is cancellable.
Refs #12875
When request_restart() adds _run_restart to _background_tasks, _stop_impl
later cancels all entries in that set. Since _run_restart is awaiting
_stop_task at that point, the CancelledError propagates into _stop_impl,
interrupting cleanup before _shutdown_event.set() and _exit_code = 75
execute. This leaves the gateway as a zombie (alive but disconnected) or
exiting with code 0 instead of 75, preventing systemd Restart=on-failure
from restarting the service.
Fix: don't add _run_restart to _background_tasks — it self-terminates in
~50ms and needs no lifecycle management.
Fixes#12875
Regression tests for the self-author guard added in the salvaged fix:
- bot-authored DM-topic watcher echo is dropped (the exact #11905 symptom)
- bot self-messages dropped in groups/supergroups too
- other bots in the same chat are still processed (self-id, not is_bot)
- observe-unmentioned sibling path also rejects self-messages
- missing from_user does not crash
Test scaffolding ported from @cola-runner's PR #12817 and adapted to the
current plugins/platforms/telegram/adapter.py and _is_own_message().
Lock the contract that a clean stream-queue termination followed by an
agent failure never reports finish_reason: "stop". Covers the raised-
exception case (#12422 repro), the flagged failed-result case, truncation
(length), and the success happy path.
Follow-up to the salvaged #12504 fix from @flobo3.
Follow-up on the salvaged MoA restore fix:
- Extract the finally-block restore into _restore_moa_one_shot() so the
behavior is unit-testable without re-implementing it, and so the gateway
/moa handler and the finally block share one implementation.
- Restore the load-bearing #28686 zombie-eviction comment above
_release_running_agent_state that the original diff dropped.
- Rewrite the tests to call the real _restore_moa_one_shot helper (the
originals re-implemented the restore logic inline, so they passed
regardless of the production code).
The MoA one-shot restore ran inside the try block after
_handle_message_with_agent returned. When that call raised an
exception (agent init failure, interpreter shutdown, OOM), the
restore was skipped and the MoA model override stayed permanently
on _session_model_overrides — silently routing all subsequent
messages through the MoA reference fan-out with no user-visible
indication.
Move the restore to the finally block so it fires on every exit
path (success, exception, interrupt). The restore data lives on
the per-turn event object and would be lost if not consumed here.
The existing test_chat_gateways_redact_secret_in_provider_error feeds a
provider-error envelope (HTTP 401), which _sanitize_gateway_final_response
rewrites wholesale to a generic category string. That rewrite strips the
secret regardless of whether the redaction layer works, so the test cannot
on its own prove _redact_gateway_user_facing_secrets is exercised.
Add test_chat_gateways_redact_secret_in_non_error_body: ordinary assistant
prose that echoes a bearer token but is NOT a provider-error envelope, so
the rewrite path does not fire and secret redaction is the only defense.
Verified fail-before (token leaks when _GATEWAY_SECRET_PATTERNS is emptied)
and pass-after across whatsapp/slack/signal/matrix, while non-secret prose
is preserved intact.
The Telegram noise/secret filter added in #28533 gated its work on
`_gateway_platform_value(platform) != "telegram"`, so
`_sanitize_gateway_final_response` and `_prepare_gateway_status_message`
only ran for Telegram. Every other human-facing chat surface
(WhatsApp, Discord, Slack, Signal, Matrix, plugin platforms, etc.)
received raw provider-error bodies verbatim — including any leaked
credentials the secret-redaction pass (`sk-…`, `Bearer …`, `gh[pousr]_…`,
`xox[baprs]-…`, `hf_…`, `glpat-…`) was meant to strip.
Invert the gate from a one-platform allowlist into a small
programmatic-surface denylist: only `local`, `api_server`, `webhook`,
and `msgraph_webhook` consume gateway text programmatically and keep raw
status/error text. Every other (chat) surface — including unknown/empty
platform values and on-demand plugin pseudo-members — fails closed to
the redacted, noise-filtered, sanitized path. This widens the same
root-cause fix to both call sites: status callbacks and final replies.
GatewayRunner._run_agent's run_sync() wrote the per-turn session key to
the process-global os.environ["HERMES_SESSION_KEY"]. Because os.environ
is shared across the whole process, concurrent gateway sessions (e.g.
two Discord threads) clobbered each other's value. A tool worker thread
whose approval contextvar was unset then fell back to os.environ via
get_current_session_key() and read whichever session ran run_sync()
last — routing "Command Approval Required" prompts to the wrong thread.
Session routing is already concurrency-safe via contextvars:
- gateway/session_context.py _SESSION_KEY (set in set_session_vars)
- tools/approval.py _approval_session_key (set via set_current_session_key
right before the agent runs, inherited by tool worker threads)
The only non-test readers of HERMES_SESSION_KEY (tools/approval.py,
tools/terminal_tool.py, tools/kanban_tools.py) all prefer the contextvar
with os.environ as a mere fallback. CLI/cron/TUI set their own os.environ
via separate export paths (e.g. the TUI parent exporting it into the
agent subprocess), so removing this in-process write does not affect them.
Adds regression tests asserting the resolver prefers the contextvar and
does not leak a concurrent session's cleared/clobbered os.environ value.

The external-drain marker .drain_request.json is written under HERMES_HOME,
which on Hermes Cloud is a persistent Fly volume (/opt/data). A begin-drain
marker therefore SURVIVES the post-update machine restart. But the disruptive
lifecycle actions a drain protects (auto-update / image migrate / env edit /
profile change) all restart the machine — which is exactly the signal the drain
is over. The freshly-restarted gateway re-read the orphaned marker on its
startup reconcile and parked itself back in 'draining', refusing every new turn
indefinitely (NS-570: ~52 min until manually cleared).
Fix: stamp the marker with an identity of THIS container/VM instantiation
(kernel boot_id + PID 1 start time, read from /proc) and treat a marker whose
epoch differs from the current instantiation as absent. A deliberate restart →
new PID 1 → new epoch → stale marker ignored → gateway boots 'running'. A marker
written during the current instantiation (the live drain) still matches; an s6
respawn of just the gateway (PID 1/init unchanged) keeps the same epoch, so an
in-flight drain is still honoured (D4a reversibility preserved).
The staleness check is lenient and never fail-closed: a legacy marker with no
epoch, a corrupt/contentless marker, or an environment with no /proc (epoch
unavailable) all degrade to the original presence-only behaviour. NAS is
untouched — it only ever POSTs begin/cancel-drain over HTTP; the marker file is
purely gateway-internal IPC.
The fix is entirely within gateway/drain_control.py; the watcher and the
dashboard endpoint go through the same drain_requested()/write_drain_request()
chokepoints and need no functional change.
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.

The email adapter authorized senders entirely off the From: header, which is
attacker-controlled and unauthenticated by IMAP. An attacker could forge
From: an-allowlisted-address and pass both the adapter's EMAIL_ALLOWED_USERS
pre-filter and the gateway's allowlist authz (both key on the same spoofable
sender_addr), getting unauthorized commands executed by the agent.
Verify the From: domain against the trusted Authentication-Results header the
receiving mail server stamps (SPF/DKIM/DMARC) before trusting it for
authorization. Enforced only when an allowlist is in effect and allow-all is
off — fail-closed. Operators whose server does not stamp the header can opt
out via platforms.email.require_authenticated_sender: false (or
EMAIL_TRUST_FROM_HEADER=true).
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.
CI shard test_telegram_conflict.py timed out (140s) because the new
_polling_heartbeat_loop, started by connect(), busy-spun under those
tests: they monkeypatch asyncio.sleep to instant and pass a bot double
with no get_me(), so the probe raised AttributeError (swallowed) and the
loop re-entered immediately with no real pacing, starving the event loop.
Guard the loop to return when bot.get_me is not callable — a real PTB Bot
always exposes it, so this only triggers on a torn-down app or a test
double, where there is nothing to probe. Also cancel the heartbeat task in
the conflict tests that call connect() without disconnect(), matching the
production disconnect() teardown.
Verified: test_telegram_conflict.py now runs in ~4.5s; the 22
heartbeat/reconnect tests still pass; E2E confirms a hanging get_me still
fires the reconnect ladder while a missing get_me exits without spinning.
When a Telegram long-poll TCP socket enters CLOSE-WAIT (remote sent FIN
but httpx hasn't noticed), epoll still reports it readable so no
exception is raised. PTB's error_callback never fires, the reconnect
ladder never engages, and the gateway silently stops receiving messages
while the process stays alive — until a manual systemctl restart.
The existing recovery only covers two cases: error_callback-driven
reconnects (which require an exception PTB never gets) and a one-shot
_verify_polling_after_reconnect probe (which runs only right after an
explicit reconnect). A socket that wedges during steady-state operation
is never detected.
Add _polling_heartbeat_loop: a background asyncio.Task started in
connect() (polling mode only) that probes get_me() every 90s on the
general request pool (not the getUpdates pool, so healthy long-polls are
never interrupted). On asyncio.TimeoutError/OSError it hands off to the
existing _handle_polling_network_error ladder; other errors are
swallowed. disconnect() cancels and awaits the task. Worst-case
detection window ~105s.
Complementary to #51541 (general-pool keepalive limits / fd leak) — that
recycles idle pooled connections; this detects a wedged active read.

Assert bare tables upgrade to sendRichMessage under default/opt-out config,
DM-topic resumed sends without reply anchors, and rich finalize edits carry
forum topic routing metadata.
These 7 test sites assert rotation behavior (fork, child sessions, lock
contention, logging session-context follows id rotation, boundary hooks fire
on rotation). Pin each builder to in_place=False explicitly so they keep
exercising the retained rotation fallback regardless of the global default
(flipped to True in #38763). Rotation stays a working opt-out fallback and
deserves continued coverage — these are NOT deleted.
Pinned sites:

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.

- 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.
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

* 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.
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).

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).
Found via live staging debug of the Discord self-serve onboarding flow.
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

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.
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).
Most Matrix clients auto-set a room name when creating a DM (e.g.
"Alice & Bot" from participant display names), so the old
`is_direct and not has_explicit_name` heuristic classified virtually
all client-created DM rooms as "room", forcing require_mention gating
in legitimate one-on-one DMs.
member_count is now the primary DM signal: <=2 members means the room
is necessarily a 1:1 conversation, regardless of m.direct or an explicit
name. A room that grew to 3+ members but is still in stale m.direct is
still classified as a room (conflict flag set). Falls back to the
m.direct + name heuristic when the count is unavailable.
Also hardens _get_room_member_count with a joined_members API fallback
when the cache-backed state_store is empty.

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.
Component button interactions (approve/deny, slash confirm, model
picker, clarify) were not checking the pairing store for authorization.
Users approved via `hermes pairing approve` could send messages and use
slash commands (which go through the gateway authz_mixin), but button
clicks were rejected because `_component_check_auth` only checked
env-var allowlists (DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS, GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS,
etc.) and not the pairing store.
This was a regression from commit f6f363662 which intentionally made
component auth fail-closed when no allowlist is set (security fix for
GHSA-mc26-p6fw-7pp6), but did not account for pairing-based auth.
Fix: add a `PairingStore.is_approved("discord", uid)` check to
`_component_check_auth`, mirroring `authz_mixin._check_authorization`.
The pairing store check runs after all allowlist checks, preserving the
fail-closed behavior for non-paired, non-allowed users.

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.

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.
When _auto_create_thread() creates a thread from a user message via
message.create_thread(), Discord fires a second MESSAGE_CREATE event
for the 'thread starter message'. That starter message carries
message.id == thread.id and may arrive with type=default instead of
type=21 (thread_starter_message), so the existing type filter in
on_message does not catch it — triggering a second call into
_handle_message and thus a second agent run and response.
Fix: after _auto_create_thread succeeds and returns a thread, pre-seed
the dedup cache with str(thread.id) via self._dedup.is_duplicate().
The dedup cache is the same TTL-based MessageDeduplicator that already
guards against Discord RESUME event replays. Calling is_duplicate()
marks the ID as seen; when the duplicate thread-starter MESSAGE_CREATE
arrives, on_message's guard returns True and the event is dropped.
This is a minimal, targeted fix:
- No new state: reuses the existing _dedup instance
- No timing/race: the pre-seed happens synchronously inside the async
_handle_message, before the thread-starter event can be dispatched
- Scoped: only fires when auto-threading is enabled AND thread creation
succeeds (thread object is not None)
Also adds tests in tests/gateway/test_discord_double_dispatch.py
covering the pre-seed behaviour, failure modes (thread creation fails,
auto-thread disabled), and dedup cache integrity.
Closes#51057
_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.

PTB's HTTPXRequest builds its httpx.AsyncClient with
`limits = httpx.Limits(max_connections=connection_pool_size)` and no
keepalive tuning, so httpx's default keepalive_expiry=5.0 applies. Behind
an HTTP proxy (Cloudflare Warp etc.) a peer-initiated FIN can sit in
CLOSE_WAIT longer than that, leaking fds in the general request pool
(_request[1], which routes bot.send_message/set_my_commands) — the pool
_drain_polling_connections never resets. Telegram was the lone holdout
adapter not using the shared #18451 CLOSE_WAIT helper.
Wire gateway.platforms._http_client_limits.platform_httpx_limits() into
the httpx client across ALL THREE request-construction branches —
fallback-transport, proxy, and plain — via httpx_kwargs["limits"], which
PTB spreads last into its client kwargs so our tuned limits win. PTB's
connection_pool_size (max_connections) is preserved; only keepalive
behaviour is tightened (max_keepalive_connections + keepalive_expiry<5.0).
The fix is macOS-import-safe: no Linux-only socket TCP_KEEPIDLE/INTVL/CNT
constants at module scope (unlike the broken candidate which crashed on
import on the reporter's OS), and it patches the actual proxy path the
repro hits rather than TelegramFallbackTransport, which the proxy repro
never instantiates.
Adds a mutation-survivable behavior-contract test asserting every
HTTPXRequest built by connect() receives httpx_kwargs["limits"] with
keepalive_expiry < httpx's 5.0 default, across both the proxy and plain
branches. Reverting the limits wiring fails the test.

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.
Slack in-app voice clips ("record a clip") arrive as MP4/AAC containers
(mimetype audio/mp4, filename audio_message*.mp4), and Slack sometimes
labels them video/mp4. The inbound audio handler derived the cache
extension from the mimetype and fell back to ".ogg" for anything not in
{.ogg,.mp3,.wav,.webm,.m4a} — so audio/mp4 voice messages were cached as
.ogg. OpenAI STT (whisper-1, gpt-4o-transcribe) sniffs the container from
the FILENAME extension, so it received MP4 bytes named .ogg and rejected
them. WhatsApp .ogg and uploaded .m4a worked only because their extension
happened to match the bytes.
Fix:
- _resolve_slack_audio_ext(): pick the cache extension from the real
filename first, then a mimetype map (audio/mp4 -> .m4a), defaulting to
.m4a — never the bogus .ogg fallback. Mirrors the video branch and the
audio map already in gateway/platforms/bluebubbles.py.
- _is_slack_voice_clip(): detect audio-only clips mislabeled video/mp4
via the slack_audio subtype / audio_message* filename, and route them
through the audio path (cached as audio, reported as audio/*) so they
reach STT instead of video understanding. Genuine videos (and
slack_video screen recordings) are left on the video path.
Verified end-to-end against a real audio-only MP4: old path cached it as
.ogg (ffprobe shows MP4 bytes -> container mismatch -> OpenAI rejects);
new path caches it as .mp4 (extension matches bytes -> accepted).
Adds inbound-audio tests (previously none): helper unit tests plus
_handle_slack_message E2E coverage for audio/mp4, video/mp4-mislabeled
voice clips, and a real video staying on the video path. Confirmed the
two voice-message tests fail without the fix (mutation check).
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 #50767, which redacted the chat-platform (_approval_notify_sync)
and SSE/API (_approval_notify) approval transports. The TUI JSON-RPC transport
is the third egress and was missed: three register_gateway_notify callbacks in
tui_gateway/server.py emitted the raw approval_data — including the unredacted
command Tirith flagged — straight to the TUI client via _emit.
Route all three registrations through a new module-level _emit_approval_request()
helper that redacts payload['command'] via the shared
gateway.run._redact_approval_command seam before emitting, matching the pattern
used for the other two transports. Completes the whole-bug-class fix for #48456.
Tests: assert the helper emits a redacted command (real credential pattern),
handles missing/None command, and a wiring guard that no registration emits the
raw payload directly (only the helper may). Both mutation-checked.
The #48456 fix series originated from @liuhao1024's #48462 — credit to them for
the original report and chat-platform fix; this completes the remaining transport.

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.
Reported-by: xxxigm (#50912)
Add a test to verify that _safe_sync_slash_commands deletes obsolete
commands before creating new ones. This ensures we never temporarily
exceed Discord's 100-command limit during sync, which would trigger
error 30032 and break all slash commands.
This test guards against the regression where sync could fail even though
the registration cap was properly enforced.
Follow-up to #31501. When the send-fallback prune removes a chat's
final telegram_dm_topic_bindings row, also flip
telegram_dm_topic_mode.enabled to 0 in the same transaction.
Without this, a user who turns topics off in the Telegram client
(rather than via /topic off) leaves enabled=1 with zero lanes:
_recover_telegram_topic_thread_id keeps treating the chat as
topic-enabled and lobby messages keep hunting for bindings that no
longer exist. Clearing the flag makes recovery fully stand down once
the dead topics are gone.
Adds 3 regression tests covering the last-binding clear, the
multi-binding no-op, and the unmatched-prune no-op.
Thirteen tests across four layers:
* ``SessionDB.delete_telegram_topic_binding`` — pin the new
helper's contract: removes only the (chat_id, thread_id) row
it was asked about, leaves siblings alone, returns 0 silently
when the row never existed, and is a no-op on a pristine
database whose topic-mode tables haven't been migrated yet.
* ``TelegramAdapter._prune_stale_dm_topic_binding`` — the glue
must drop the binding when ``self._session_store._db``
exposes the helper, swallow exceptions so a failed cleanup
never breaks the user-facing send, and refuse to issue a
DELETE for ``chat_id=None`` / ``thread_id=None`` so a
bookkeeping miss can't accidentally null-match every row.
* Source-level guards on ``TelegramAdapter.send`` and
``_send_message_with_thread_fallback`` — the prune call must
sit beside the two existing "Thread X not found, retrying
without message_thread_id" warnings, before the retry runs,
so a future refactor can't silently drop the cleanup wire.
* End-to-end semantic — once a topic is pruned, the
``GatewayRunner._recover_telegram_topic_thread_id`` walk
steers future inbound messages to the surviving binding
instead of the dead one. This is the exact behaviour change
the bug report's reproduction asks for: no more landings in
the wrong topic until the operator hand-edits ``state.db``.
Refs #31501
The Slack docs document `slack.mention_patterns` as custom wake words that
trigger the bot alongside `@mention`, and the config layer bridges the key into
the Slack adapter's `config.extra` — but the adapter never read it. With
`require_mention` on, a channel message containing a configured wake word (and
no literal `<@BOTUID>`) was silently ignored. Every other adapter that
documents `mention_patterns` (Telegram, DingTalk, Mattermost, WhatsApp,
BlueBubbles, Photon) implements it; Slack was the odd one out.
Add `_slack_mention_patterns()` (compiled, cached; reads `slack.mention_patterns`
as a list/string or `SLACK_MENTION_PATTERNS` as a JSON/CSV/newline list, invalid
regexes warned and skipped) and `_slack_message_matches_mention_patterns()`,
mirroring the existing adapters. Channel mention detection now also triggers on
a wake-word match, so the documented field works as described.
Adds tests for pattern compilation (list/string/env/invalid-regex) and for the
channel-trigger gating with a wake word under require_mention.
* 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).
Follow-up to the accept-any-file-type change. The observe-unmentioned and
replied-media paths relied on cache_media_bytes() returning None for
unsupported document types to emit an 'unsupported, not cached' note. Now
that any file type is always cached, those docs are cached and surfaced with
a path-pointing note — consistent with the main document path. The
remaining cached-is-None branch is image-validation-failure only; its note
is reworded accordingly. Updates the group-gating test to the new contract.
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.
* feat(cli): /reasoning full to show complete thinking, not 10-line clamp
The post-response Reasoning recap box hard-clamped long thinking to the
first 10 lines, so there was no way to see the full reasoning trace after
a turn (live streaming already shows it in full). Add display.reasoning_full
(default off) plus /reasoning full|clamp to toggle it at runtime; the clamp
truncation note now points at the command. Addresses repeated user requests
to show all thinking tokens.
* test(gateway): de-snapshot /reasoning help assertion
The test froze the exact args-hint literal '/reasoning [level|show|hide]',
which the new full/clamp args change to '[level|show|hide|full|clamp]'.
Convert to an invariant: assert /reasoning is in help and carries its core
args, not the exact hint string.
* feat(tui): /reasoning full|clamp parity in tui_gateway
The classic-CLI reasoning_full toggle had no TUI equivalent — typing
/reasoning full in the TUI fell through to parse_reasoning_effort and
errored. The TUI renders thinking as an expand/collapse section (no fixed
10-line recap), so map full -> sections.thinking=expanded (raw, uncapped
via thinkingPreview mode='full') and clamp -> collapsed, persisting
display.reasoning_full for cross-surface config consistency.
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.
The salvaged test spawned a listener subprocess that printed its port
immediately after bind() but BEFORE listen(), so under CI's loaded 8-worker
box the parent connected before the socket was listening -> ConnectionRefused
(flaked on test slice 2/6). Reorder the child to listen() then print the port,
and make the client connect with a short bounded retry to absorb scheduler
jitter. 15/15 green locally including direct hammering.
Follow-up to the salvaged #43846 commits: the WhatsApp adapter moved from
gateway/platforms/whatsapp.py to plugins/platforms/whatsapp/adapter.py since the
PR was authored. The cherry-pick brought _listener_pids_on_port's `re.finditer`
ss-fallback and the new test's import, but the new module location doesn't import
`re` (latent NameError on the lsof-absent fallback path) and the test imported the
old module path. Add `import re` to the adapter and repoint the test import.
This is the bug that was actually closing Firefox. `_kill_port_process`, run on
every bridge (re)start to free the port, used `lsof -ti :PORT` / `fuser PORT/tcp`
— both of which match a process whose socket merely *involves* that port number
in ANY state, including ESTABLISHED client connections. It then SIGTERMed every
match.
The bridge defaults to port 3000 — a ubiquitous local dev-server port. With a
browser tab open on localhost:3000, `lsof -ti :3000` returned Firefox's PID, so
each restart of the (crash-looping) WhatsApp bridge SIGTERMed Firefox, closing
the whole browser at irregular intervals with no crash and no coredump.
Proven live with the kernel `signal:signal_generate` tracepoint:
hermes-gateway(3396516) -> sig=15 (code=0/SI_USER) -> comm=firefox pid=3371585
captured immediately after a gateway start, while Firefox held a socket on the
bridge port. Demonstrated over-match: `lsof -ti :8080` returns the listener AND
the gateway's own client connection; `lsof -ti tcp:8080 -sTCP:LISTEN` returns
only the listener.
Fix: `_listener_pids_on_port` resolves only LISTEN-state sockets
(`lsof -ti tcp:PORT -sTCP:LISTEN`, with an `ss -ltnp` fallback) and
`_kill_port_process` signals just those. A client whose connection happens to
involve the port number is never touched — which is also more correct, since a
client never blocks the new bridge from binding. Windows already filtered
LISTENING; the broad `fuser -k` path is removed.
Adds TestKillPortProcess: real-socket tests proving a separate client process
is excluded from the listener lookup and survives port cleanup. 9 tests green.

`_kill_stale_bridge_by_pidfile` SIGTERMed the PID recorded in `bridge.pid`
after only a bare liveness check. Once the bridge exits and is reaped the
kernel recycles that PID onto an unrelated process; because the WhatsApp bridge
crash-loops ("Bridge process died (exit code 1)" repeating), this cleanup ran
on every restart and could SIGTERM a recycled PID that had landed on the user's
browser — closing Firefox at irregular intervals with no crash and no coredump
(a clean kill of a stranger).
Same PID-recycling class as the MCP reaper (7bd1f8a2d) and the process-registry
host-PID guard (e6a99cef2); this was the third, and most actively-fired, path.
Fix: `_write_bridge_pidfile` now also records the leader's kernel start time
(line 2). `_kill_stale_bridge_by_pidfile` re-validates identity via
`_bridge_pid_is_ours` before signalling — the (pid, start time) pair must match,
or for legacy single-line pidfiles the live cmdline must name `node` + this
session's unique path. A recycled PID (different start time / cmdline) is logged
and skipped, never signalled. Legacy pidfiles stay readable.
Adds TestWhatsappBridgePidfile: real-process tests proving a genuine bridge is
reaped while a recycled PID (start-time mismatch, or non-bridge cmdline) is
spared. 7 new + 108 gateway/registry tests green.

Pin the contract that ``_apply_env_overrides`` consults ``is_connected``
before the install-triggering ``check_fn``: an unconfigured platform is
skipped without calling ``check_fn`` (no lazy install), while a configured
platform still has ``check_fn`` run and is auto-enabled. The first assertion
fails on the pre-fix unconditional sweep.
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
Fold in the #40715 blank-env OOM fix on top of the host-resolution change:
- connect() now sets a non-retryable fatal error when required settings are
missing, so the gateway stops reconnecting against an empty host instead of
looping forever and leaking memory until the host OOM-kills.
- check_email_requirements() treats blank/whitespace-only EMAIL_* values as
missing, so an abandoned setup with empty keys no longer enables the platform.
Credits the parallel fixes by zerone0x (#40745) and liuhao1024 (#40829).
The email adapter read address/host purely from env vars and never stripped
them, so a missing or whitespace-padded EMAIL_IMAP_HOST reached
imaplib.IMAP4_SSL("") and surfaced as the misleading
"[Errno 8] nodename nor servname provided, or not known" — sending users down a
DNS rabbit hole when the real problem was an empty/dirty host string. A
config.yaml-only setup also left the host empty because __init__ ignored
PlatformConfig.extra, even though the "connected" check, the send helper, and
`hermes config show` already read address/imap_host/smtp_host from it.
Resolve address/imap_host/smtp_host from the env var first, then fall back to
config.extra, and strip surrounding whitespace — matching the send helper's
existing pattern. Validate the required settings at the start of connect() and
return False with an actionable message instead of attempting a connection with
an empty host.
Adds regression tests for whitespace stripping, config.extra fallback, and the
no-IMAP-attempt-on-missing-host path.
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.
After the agent's final response, the '...typing' bubble persisted ~5s.
send() re-triggers send_typing() after every delivery so the bubble
survives intermediate progress messages (Telegram clears typing on each
delivered message). But that re-trigger also fired on the FINAL send,
re-arming Telegram's ~5s timer AFTER the gateway had already torn down
its typing-refresh loop — and Telegram exposes no stop-typing API, so
nothing cancelled it.
Gate the post-send re-trigger on the absence of metadata['notify'] (set
only on the final user-visible reply via _mark_notify_metadata). Both
the rich-message and legacy send paths are covered; intermediate
progress sends still re-trigger so the bubble stays alive mid-response.
Fixes#48678
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.
Rich messages are not ready for primetime: current Telegram clients can
render Bot API 10.1 rich messages as blank/unsupported bubbles and make
them hard to copy as plain text, which is worse than the legacy
MarkdownV2 path for command snippets and mobile handoffs. Default the
rich_messages toggle to False so replies stay on the copyable legacy
path; users opt in per bot via platforms.telegram.extra.rich_messages:
true. Updates adapter, gateway config default, example config, English +
zh-Hans docs, and the default/opt-in tests.
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.
Telegram Mac/Desktop Bot API 10.1 rich-message rendering leaves garbled
overlapping draft/overlay glyphs for CJK text (#47653), affecting every
message containing CJK characters. The legacy MarkdownV2 path renders the
same text cleanly, so skip the rich send / draft / final-edit paths up
front for content containing CJK (incl. astral-plane extensions) until
affected clients age out. Non-CJK rich rendering is preserved.
Fixes#47653
The newline normalization is the shared chokepoint for every rich send
(sendRichMessage, draft, and editMessageText). Injecting a Markdown hard
break (two trailing spaces) into a GFM table row separator corrupts the
natively-rendered table — the rich path's headline feature. Protect both
fenced code blocks AND pipe-table blocks as bare regions; only prose
between them gets hard breaks. Verified RICH_CONTENT and the existing
rich-table tests stay byte-identical.
Bot API 10.1 sendRichMessage treats a lone newline as a soft break, so
multi-line content joined with "\n".join(lines) — slash-command lists,
etc. — collapses into a single paragraph. Normalize single newlines to
Markdown hard breaks (two trailing spaces) in _rich_message_payload,
leaving paragraph breaks and fenced code blocks untouched.
Fixes#46070
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.
When truncate_message appends a (N/M) chunk indicator to a chunk that
had to close an in-progress fenced code block, the marker lands on the
closing fence line (``` \(1/2\) after MarkdownV2 escaping). Telegram
does not treat that as a clean closing fence and rejects the MarkdownV2,
falling back to plain text. Move the indicator onto its own line right
after the closing fence at all three legacy-send call sites.
Fixes#48517
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.
The native echo recovery handles replies to most rich messages, but
messages sent before the bot's first rich send have no echo to read.
record() was only called on the fresh-send path (_try_send_rich); a
streamed final finalized via _try_edit_rich/editMessageText was never
indexed, so a reply to it had neither a native echo nor an index entry.
Mirror the fresh-send record() into the edit success path to close
that gap.
Telegram DOES echo a rich message's content back in
reply_to_message.api_kwargs['rich_message']['blocks'] when a user
replies to it. Read that native field first in _build_message_event,
keeping the local send-time index only as a fallback. Duck-type
api_kwargs via .get() since it is a mappingproxy, not a dict.
Fixes#49534
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.

test_matrix_voice flaked in CI (6/7 failing on some shards, passing on
others and on main) depending on leaked MATRIX_REQUIRE_MENTION env state.
Root cause: the adapter defaults require_mention=True (falling back to the
MATRIX_REQUIRE_MENTION env var). These tests fire a group-room audio event
with no @mention, so _resolve_message_context drops it before dispatch
('No event was captured') whenever require_mention resolves True — which
happens in a clean shard, but an earlier test in another shard can leave
MATRIX_REQUIRE_MENTION=false in os.environ and mask it. The plugin
migration (#5600105478 adapter→bundled plugin) shifted shard composition
and exposed it.
Pin require_mention: False in the test adapter config so these media-TYPE
detection tests are no longer gated by the mention requirement, regardless
of ambient env. Verified: 7/7 pass with MATRIX_REQUIRE_MENTION=true (the
failing condition) AND with the env unset.
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.

The subagent-demotion busy-handler test asserted the internal
merge_pending_message_event call, which the FIFO refactor replaced with
_queue_or_replace_pending_event. Assert the behavioral outcome (the
follow-up lands in the pending slot for the next turn) instead — same
fix already applied to the two steer-fallback tests.
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.

Follow-up for salvaged #49654: unit tests for resolve_whatsapp_bridge_dir()
(writable passthrough, read-only mirror, existing-mirror reuse) and the
AUTHOR_MAP entry for the contributor.
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.

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.
The hardened echo ring (#31250) changes _recent_sent_timestamps from a set
to an OrderedDict, so the reply-detection-cache regression test from the quote
salvage can no longer call .discard(); route it through the new
_consume_sent_timestamp() helper, which is the real echo-removal path.
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
Teams overrode send_image/send_image_file but not send_video, send_voice,
or send_document — so when the gateway dispatched a video/voice/document
reply to a Teams chat it fell through to the base-class text fallback and
sent the local file path as plain text (same broken-UX class as the LINE
URL-image gap in #49298).
Extract the existing send_image attachment logic into a shared
_send_media_attachment helper (remote URL by reference, local file as a
base64 data URI, MIME guessed from the path) and route all four media
kinds through it. 5 new tests cover remote-URL, local-file base64,
no-app, and missing-file paths.
Simplify pass on the picker-persist coverage:
- Stub list_picker_providers + resolve_display_context_length so the
tests no longer make real outbound HTTP calls (OpenRouter catalog +
Ollama /api/show) during picker setup and confirmation rendering.
Runtime drops from ~11s to ~0.4s and the tests are now deterministic.
- Collapse the two positive persist cases into one parametrize over the
config seed (nested-dict vs flat-string), asserting the nested-dict
invariant in both.
- Assert the in-memory session override is applied in the --session
case, closing a 'passes for the wrong reason' gap (config untouched
AND the switch still took effect).
- _FakePickerResult -> types.SimpleNamespace.
Mutation re-checked on the final test: both persist cases fail on
pre-fix slash_commands.py; the --session case passes on both.
Add regression coverage for the picker persist fix: drive the real
_handle_model_command with a fake picker-capable adapter that captures
the on_model_selected callback, fire a 'tap', and assert config.yaml is
written (bare /model), left untouched (--session), and that a flat-string
model: is coerced to a nested dict on a tap.
Mutation-checked: the persist and coercion assertions fail on pre-fix
slash_commands.py and pass on the fix.
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.
* fix(discord): hydrate channel context when replying to a message
Replying to a message in a free-response (non-mention, threads-off)
channel previously received only the 500-char "[Replying to: ...]"
snippet — the history-backfill gate fired only for mention-gated
channels and threads, so a reply got no surrounding channel context.
Replies now route through the same _fetch_channel_context hydration
that threads use. When the user replied to a specific (often older)
message, a reply-anchored window is scanned ending at that message so
the agent sees the exchange around what was pointed at, even when the
target sits before the self-message partition. The two windows are
merged chronologically and de-duplicated by message id.
Also hardens the recent-window scan to skip non-conversational status
bumps before the self-message partition check, and makes author-name
resolution defensive against partial/deleted authors.
* fix(discord): duck-type reply-target resolution instead of isinstance(discord.Message)
The e2e suite stubs the discord module, so discord.Message is a MagicMock
and isinstance(_resolved, discord.Message) raises 'isinstance() arg 2 must
be a type'. Any object with an int .id works as a scan anchor, so resolve
the reply target by duck-typing on .id and fall back to a _Snowflake from
the reference message_id.
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.

Adds a Raft platform adapter as a bundled plugin (plugins/platforms/raft/)
connecting Hermes to Raft as an external agent via a wake-channel bridge.
The adapter starts a loopback HTTP endpoint, spawns 'raft agent bridge' as a
child process, and injects content-free wake hints into the gateway session
pipeline. The agent reads/sends messages through the Raft CLI; the adapter
never touches message bodies or delivery cursors. Activity observer hooks
report tool/LLM/session lifecycle events via a bounded at-most-once queue.
Auto-enables when RAFT_PROFILE is set.
Cherry-picked from PR #47629. Authored by skyzh (@xxchan).
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.
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.

Replaces the tautological test from the original PR (which asserted a
plain assignment it performed itself in the test body) with one that
exercises the actual contracts: _init_cached_agent_for_turn leaves
max_iterations untouched, and the per-turn IterationBudget rebuild
(turn_context.py) propagates a refreshed cap.
Two bugs surfaced from production usage in #37134:
1. Dict choices rendered as Python repr. LLMs sometimes emit
[{"description": "..."}] instead of bare strings; the old
str(c).strip() coercion turned the whole dict into
"{'description': '...'}" on the button label.
Fix: add a _flatten_choice helper that unwraps dicts against
the canonical LLM tool-call user-facing keys (label, description,
text, title) in that order. Dicts with none of those keys are
dropped. The "name" and "value" keys are deliberately NOT in the
priority list — they're Discord-component-shaped fields that
could appear in dicts that aren't meant to be choices (a
developer-error wiring that passes a Button-shaped object);
picking them would leak raw enum values or 4-char model
identifiers onto user-facing buttons.
2. Mid-word truncation on long button labels. The old
choice[:72] + "..." cut at position 72, mid-word. Worse, the
three-char ellipsis ate into the 80-char Discord label cap,
leaving only 75 chars of body.
Fix: budget-aware cut strategy with three tiers:
a. Last space in the trailing half of the budget (word boundary).
b. Last soft boundary (- , . )) in the trailing half — used
only when no word boundary exists.
c. Hard cut at the budget limit (last resort).
Use single U+2026 (…) to fit the cap. Cut AT soft boundaries
(inclusive) so the label ends on the boundary char rather than
on the alpha char that followed it.
Tests:
- test_unwraps_dict_choices_to_description: reproduces the
screenshot in #37134, asserts the Python repr is gone.
- test_unwrap_prefers_description_over_name_in_multi_key_dict:
regression guard for the name-key order in the unwrap list.
- test_unwrap_prefers_label_over_description: regression guard
for label winning over description.
- test_unwrap_does_not_pick_value_or_name_alone: regression
guard for the "name"/"value" fields being absent.
- test_truncates_long_choice_label: 200-char input, asserts
total <= 80 and U+2026.
- test_truncates_long_choice_label_breaks_on_word_boundary:
asserts the cut is on a space, not mid-word.
- test_truncates_long_no_space_choice_on_soft_boundary:
adversarial input where position 76 is mid-word alpha, asserts
the renderer falls back to a soft boundary.
Parity: telegram clarify suite (12 tests) still passes; the
helper is a Discord adapter local, not shared with the gateway.
Follow-up: gateway/platforms/telegram.py has the same str(c).strip()
pattern in its own send_clarify and will need a similar fix
(separate PR to keep this diff reviewable).
Fixes#37134
* 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 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 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).
* 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.
- test_ws_transport.py: drives WebSocketRelayTransport against a REAL in-process
websockets server (not a mock socket): handshake (hello->descriptor), inbound
frame -> handler, outbound request/response correlation, follow_up routing,
and clean disconnect failing pending waiters. Skips if websockets is absent.
- test_relay_registration.py: rewritten for the config-driven gate — registers
when GATEWAY_RELAY_URL is set / an explicit url is passed / force=True; no-op
without a URL; trailing slash stripped; adapter constructs through the registry.
Full relay suite: 57 passed.
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.
Under the A2 trust model the connector is the SOLE crypto/identity
boundary: it verifies/decrypts every inbound platform payload at the edge
(it holds the tenant secrets), normalizes to a tenant-scoped MessageEvent,
and forwards only the sanitized event. The gateway re-validates nothing —
it cannot without being handed the shared signing secret, which on a
shared bot is itself the cross-tenant leak.
The relay path already imports no platform-crypto today; this locks that
in as an enforced invariant so nobody bolts re-validation (Discord
ed25519, Twilio HMAC, WeCom BizMsgCrypt, generic webhook signature checks)
onto the relay later and silently re-couples the gateway to platform
secrets it must never hold. Verification stays in the direct platform
adapters (gateway/platforms/*) which serve non-relay deployments.
- test_relay_package_imports_no_platform_crypto: AST-walks gateway/relay/*
and fails on any import of a platform-crypto/verification module.
- test_relay_package_calls_no_signature_verification: fails on any
verification-symbol reference (ed25519/hmac/bizmsg/verify_*).
Invariants (assert the relation 'relay re-validates nothing'), not frozen
snapshots. Verified the guard bites: injecting a wecom_crypto import makes
it fail, removing it goes green. docs §6 rewrite follows in a later commit.
The Phase 1 exit gate requires BOTH Discord and Telegram to round-trip
through the relay stub, but test_relay_roundtrip.py only covered Discord.
Add the Telegram companion exercising its distinct discriminator profile:
- no guild_id — two chats isolate on chat_id alone
- forum topics share one chat_id and isolate by thread_id (the Telegram
analog of Discord per-guild isolation), shared across participants by
default (thread_sessions_per_user=False)
- DM isolation by chat_id
- utf16 len_unit + markdown_v2 dialect round-trip and configure the adapter
- outbound send round-trips through the stub
Proves the CapabilityDescriptor + build_session_key generalize beyond
Discord, not just the struct (which the descriptor unit tests already
covered).
Add an invariant test pinning docs/relay-connector-contract.md to the
Python source of truth so the doc (which the connector repo mirrors by
hand) cannot silently drift:
- CapabilityDescriptor §2 table ⟷ dataclass fields + required/optional
- SessionSource wire keys (to_dict output) ⟷ §3 documented fields
- per-platform discriminator columns exist as real SessionSource fields
- guard that is_bot stays off the wire until deliberately promoted
Writing the test surfaced a real gap: §3 only enumerated 5 discriminators
in its per-platform table while to_dict() emits 12 keys. Seven wire keys
the connector must populate (chat_name, chat_topic, user_id_alt,
chat_id_alt, parent_chat_id, message_id, user_name) were undocumented —
a connector author reading the doc would never know to set them. Added a
complete SessionSource wire-field table to §3. The connector's existing
contract.ts already carries all 12, so no connector change is needed; the
doc was the lagging artifact.
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.
CI guard: fails if gateway/ or plugins/ ever imports the test-only stub
connector or defines StubConnector. Matches code leaks (imports / class defs),
not prose mentions, so the transport.py docstring reference to the stub's path
is allowed.
Phase 1 complete. Task 1.6 of the gateway-relay plan.
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.
Behavioral regression harness locking the capability surface that the future
RelayAdapter must reproduce: the abstract-method set (connect/disconnect/send/
get_chat_info), message_len_fn default, supports_draft_streaming default, and
the stream_consumer MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH attribute read. Passes on main before
any RelayAdapter exists.
Phase 0, Task 0.1 of the gateway-relay plan.
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:

- 3c3d6fac0 fix: handle both ISO string and epoch float timestamps in history replay
- 2874f7725 feat: human-friendly timestamp format with weekday and timezone name

Cover #47375 fix: record-on-rich-send + lookup-on-reply round trip,
lookup miss leaving reply_to_text None, and precedence (native quote
and echoed caption both win over the index fallback).
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.

Session: Mattermost thread 6qg8e9dd1pd9pkhi74xyaa1mry, 2026-06-01.
`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.

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.
* fix(teams): package Microsoft Teams SDK as an installable extra
The Teams adapter imports the microsoft-teams-apps SDK, but it was never
declared as a dependency, so source/local installs hit ImportError and the
adapter silently reported the SDK as unavailable. Add a 'teams' extra
(microsoft-teams-apps==2.0.13.4 + aiohttp) and document 'uv sync --extra teams'.
Per the 2026-05-12 [all] policy, opt-in messaging-platform SDKs are NOT added
to [all] (they would break every fresh install on a quarantined release); the
teams extra is installed on demand like the other platform backends.

* chore: map rio-jeong contributor email for attribution (#43945)
* feat(teams): lazy-install the Teams SDK on demand (parity with other channels)
The teams extra alone left Teams as the only messaging platform that wouldn't
auto-install its SDK — every other channel (telegram, discord, slack, matrix,
dingtalk, feishu) lazy-installs via tools.lazy_deps on first connect. Bring
Teams to parity:
- Add 'platform.teams' to LAZY_DEPS (microsoft-teams-apps + aiohttp).
- Replace the passive 'check_teams_requirements = check_requirements' alias with
a real lazy-installer that calls ensure_and_bind('platform.teams', ...),
rebinding all Teams SDK globals on success (mirrors check_slack_requirements).
- Call check_teams_requirements() at the top of TeamsAdapter.connect() so
enabling Teams installs the SDK on demand.
- Keep the passive check_requirements() as the registry check_fn so 'gateway
status' probes never trigger a pip install.
The 'teams' extra remains for packagers / explicit 'uv sync --extra teams'.
Tests: rework the alias test into shortcircuit + lazy-install assertions, and
update test_connect_fails_without_sdk to simulate an uninstallable SDK.

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
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).
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.
