Extend the pre_tool_call plugin hook return contract with a new directive:
{"action": "approve", "message": "why this needs human confirmation"}
Previously a pre_tool_call hook could only veto a tool call (action: block)
or allow it silently. It could not escalate to the existing human-approval
flow. This unlocks user-defined runtime approval rules on ANY tool (HTTP
writes, file writes to sensitive paths, email sends), enforced at runtime —
resolving #51221 as a pure plugin, with no core approval.py rule schema.
Mechanism:
- get_pre_tool_call_directive() returns (action, message) for block|approve;
get_pre_tool_call_block_message() kept as a block-only back-compat shim.
- resolve_pre_tool_block() is the single dispatch-site chokepoint: fetches
the directive and, for approve, invokes the human gate; fail-closed to a
block on denial, timeout, or gate exception. ALL FOUR tool-dispatch sites
now call it: tool_executor (concurrent + sequential), agent_runtime_helpers,
and model_tools.handle_function_call.
- request_tool_approval() escalates via the SAME machinery as Tier-2
dangerous commands: session/permanent allowlist, prompt_dangerous_approval
(CLI) / submit_pending (gateway), [o]nce/[s]ession/[a]lways/[d]eny,
timeout fail-closed, approvals.cron_mode for cron contexts.
Architecture: extracted the shared decision core into _run_approval_gate(),
called by BOTH check_dangerous_command() and request_tool_approval() so the
fail-closed / cron / gateway / yolo / persist policy lives in ONE place and
cannot drift. Fixed a latent divergence — the plugin path now honors --yolo.
Approval grain: [a]lways is keyed on tool_name + a hash of the reason (an
explicit plugin rule_key overrides), so distinct reasons on the same tool
persist independently instead of one 'always' blanketing the whole tool.
Non-interactive: cron honors approvals.cron_mode (parity with commands); any
other non-interactive non-gateway context fails CLOSED for the plugin path
(the command path keeps its historical fail-open default, unchanged).
No new config schema, no new env vars, no new hook events.
_normalize_custom_provider_entry() runs on every load_picker_context()
call (per picker/inventory request) and warned each time for (a) the
redundant `provider` key that Hermes' own config writer emits into
provider entries and (b) any other unknown key. On Windows the serve
launcher+worker pair share one rotating log via concurrent-log-handler's
cross-process lock, so that per-load warning volume drove 'Cannot acquire
lock after 20 attempts' retries that pegged a core, stalled the event
loop ~14s, and dropped every desktop/TUI WebSocket while /health stayed
green (gateway looked down; dashboard looked fine).
- Accept `provider` as a known key (silently ignored) so self-written
legacy configs don't warn.
- Deduplicate the normalizer's warnings per (provider, signature) so a
static config quirk is surfaced once, not on every inventory load.
Adds regression tests for both.
Fixes#58265
Follow-up to @srojk34's basename-denylist widening. Two gaps the
basename-only guard left, both covered by the two canonical guards it
mirrors:
- Directory-tree stores mcp-tokens/ (live MCP OAuth tokens) and pairing/
are denied as whole trees by gateway.platforms.base._ROOT_CREDENTIAL_DIRS
and agent.file_safety, but the dashboard files API descends into subdirs,
so mcp-tokens/<server>.json (non-canonical basename) stayed
listable/readable/downloadable. Add _is_sensitive_path(), a path-aware
check that blocks any path with a credential-directory component, and
route all three call sites (list/read/download) through it.
- Add .git-credentials to the basename set (agent.file_safety blocks it too).
- Correct the docstring: it now says it mirrors the credential-FILE basenames
of the canonical guards, with the directory trees handled by the new
path-aware helper (the prior wording overstated parity).
Scope stays on the read/list/download exfil surface (#57505); the write
endpoints (upload/mkdir/delete) are a separate threat and out of scope.
Tests: dir-tree descent blocked (mcp-tokens/pairing per-server files),
.git-credentials blocked, plus a positive control that a benign subdir file
stays browsable. Mutation-checked (neuter _is_sensitive_path -> new tests
fail). 39 web_server_files + fs tests pass, ruff clean.
_is_sensitive_filename() only blocked .env / .env.<suffix>, but the
dashboard Files tab's managed root is operator-configurable and, per the
docker-mount scenario #57505 was filed against, can point directly at
HERMES_HOME — where the canonical credential stores enforced elsewhere
in the codebase (gateway.platforms.base._ROOT_CREDENTIAL_FILES,
agent.file_safety.get_read_block_error) all live: auth.json, OAuth
token stores, webhook HMAC secrets, the Bitwarden disk cache. None of
those basenames were blocked, so the Files tab could still list, read,
and download them. .envrc (direnv) also slipped past the old check
since it doesn't equal ".env" or start with ".env.".
Widen the basename set to mirror both existing guards so the dashboard
doesn't lag behind them.
Gateway users can now search resumable sessions from messaging surfaces:
/sessions search <query> (alias: find) matches titles and session ids —
including every title/id in a row's forward compression chain, so a
compressed-away title still surfaces its live tip — plus a
punctuation-normalized variant so 'an94' matches 'AN-94'.
Implemented by generalizing the existing id_query chain-filter in
SessionDB.list_sessions_rich into a combined SQL-level filter (search
stays ORDER BY last-active + LIMIT at SQL level), threading a
search_query through the shared query_session_listing helper, and
teaching parse_session_listing_args to split off a search query.
Search results pass through the existing _resume_row_visible guard
unchanged: origin scoping, admin-only 'all', and the fail-closed
legacy-row posture from the July 1 hardening are preserved exactly.
Over-fetch (50) before the visibility cut so origin-invisible matches
can't starve the page.
Salvages the feature direction of PR #57595 by @GodsBoy with a minimal
implementation that keeps the resume authorization surface untouched.
Post-merge follow-ups + several review rounds + a hub-search rework, folded together.
Merge-scuff restores (a stale-base refactor had reverted two live-on-main fixes):
- gateway: SessionStore compression-tip healing + its regression test.
- desktop: messaging session/transcript polling in desktop-controller
(MESSAGING_POLL / ACTIVE_MESSAGING_SESSION_POLL, refreshMessagingSessions,
refreshActiveMessagingTranscript, the richer sameCronSignature) so inbound
platform traffic updates live again instead of freezing until manual refresh.
Profile-switch isolation (epoch/close/guard on every profile-scoped async):
- Hub store clears + in-flight runHubAction bails (and swallows the post-switch
404 instead of a phantom toast); hub preview/scan/search/sources profile-scoped.
- MCP: probe/auth epoch guards, dirty-draft reset, sidebar mutations blocked
until config resettles AND every persist re-checks the epoch post-await;
profilePending clears on config settle incl. error; logs re-key on profile.
- Model settings reload on switch and epoch-guard setModelAssignment /
saveMoaModels / API-key activation.
- Config draft resets + cancels its autosave on switch; skill editor/archive and
star-map node dialogs close on switch; openSkillEditor / star-map openEdit
discard stale fetches; tool-usage analytics loads are profile-guarded/keyed.
Correctness + UX:
- Unique per-skill action names for hub install AND uninstall; hub/catalog rows
flip only on a clean exit_code; catalog install polls the background bootstrap
to completion, reconciles the mcp.json draft (no dropped server), and fails
loudly on non-zero exit; MCP catalog query keyed by profile.
- /test reports needs-auth for anonymous auth:oauth servers; /auth snapshots +
restores tokens on a failed re-auth and clears the full 300s callback window.
- config-settings shows a retry on load failure; CodeEditor/JsonDocumentEditor
go read-only while saving so edits typed mid-save aren't dropped.
- Deep-link highlighter deletes its param only after a successful scroll.
- Restored the PageSearchShell trailing slot → Artifacts refresh button/spinner.
- /settings?tab=mcp redirect keeps server=.
Progressive hub search: fan out one query per backend-searchable source
(index-covered API sources stay unsearchable → no ~70-call GitHub re-hammer),
merge/dedupe by trust as each lands, per-source spinner overlaid on the dimmed
chip — results stream in without blocking on the slowest, no layout shift.
test(web): /api/skills list carries usage + provenance (CI contract).
Five follow-ups to #57659 from post-merge review:
1. install.ps1: gateway scheduled-task re-enable now runs in a finally
(a thrown Remove-Item/uv venv failure previously stranded the user's
gateway autostart disabled), and tasks that were already disabled
before the install are no longer blindly re-enabled.
2. The venv-python holder guard is no longer bypassed by plain --force
(which the desktop bootstrap passes on every update while its lock
probe only checks hermes.exe/app.asar). New explicit --force-venv is
the escape hatch; --force keeps bypassing only the hermes.exe shim
guard.
3. _detect_venv_python_processes now also catches uv/base-interpreter
trampolines whose exe is outside the venv, via cmdline (venv path or
'-m hermes_cli.main' tied to this install root) and cwd.
4. Missing venv python is now UNHEALTHY on managed installs
(.hermes-bootstrap-complete / .update-incomplete markers) so the
repair lane runs instead of 'Already up to date!'; the repair branch
recreates the venv first when it's gone entirely. Dev checkouts keep
reporting healthy.
5. install.ps1 comment no longer claims a Startup-folder disarm the
code doesn't perform (logon-only, not a mid-install respawner).
Follow-up to #57507: .ENV / .Env.local on case-insensitive filesystem
mounts slipped past the guard. Lowercase the name before matching and
add a regression test. Addresses egilewski's open review note.
Replace the exact-filename frozenset with _is_sensitive_filename()
that matches .env plus any .env.<suffix> variant. This covers
shorthand suffixes like .env.prod that the previous enumeration
missed.
Add test_sensitive_env_suffix_variants_blocked regression test
covering .env.prod, .env.dev, .env.staging.local, and .env.ci.
Addresses review feedback from egilewski on PR #57507.
The dashboard Files tab could list, read, and download .env files
containing API keys when running with a bind-mounted Hermes home
directory (e.g. docker run -v ~/.hermes:/opt/data).
Add _SENSITIVE_FILENAMES frozenset and filter these from
list_managed_files(), read_managed_file(), and download_managed_file().
Return 403 for direct read/download attempts on sensitive files.
Fixes#57505
Root-causes the July 2026 Windows incident chain (locked _brotlicffi.pyd /
_sodium.pyd during install, then 'No module named annotated_doc' with
'hermes update' insisting 'Already up to date!'):
- hermes update: probe venv core imports even when the checkout is current;
a half-updated venv (dep sync killed mid-flight by a locked .pyd) is now
detected and repaired instead of being reported as up to date
- hermes update (Windows): after pausing gateways, refuse to mutate the venv
while other processes run from the venv interpreter (the Desktop backend
runs as python.exe so the hermes.exe shim guard never saw it); --force
keeps the old behavior
- install.ps1 venv stage: disarm gateway autostart Scheduled Tasks before
the kill sweep (they respawn the gateway inside the kill->delete window),
make the sweep a bounded loop requiring 3 clean passes, and rename-then-
delete the old venv (a rename succeeds even with mapped DLLs) with stale-
dir cleanup on the next run
- desktop updater: 'venv shim still locked after 15s' now ABORTS the update
hand-off (restarting our backend, surfacing the holder to the user)
instead of 'proceeding anyway (force)' into guaranteed venv corruption;
the unlock wait also re-kills respawned backends each poll tick
A Cursor-style MCP manager inside Capabilities, plus the backend it needs.
- Server list with brand/favicon avatars + live status dot and a capability
summary (N tools, M prompts, K resources); Servers | Catalog views.
- Catalog: one-click install of Nous-approved servers with required-env prompts.
- GUI OAuth: Authenticate opens the system browser from the TTY-less backend and
verifies a token actually lands; header/API-key servers are never pushed down
OAuth; a dirty mcp.json can't drop a freshly-persisted auth field.
- Full-width mcp.json editor (ecosystem document format) + pinned stdio/agent
LogTail; probes cached 5m and keyed by (profile, config) so revisiting never
respawns the fleet or shows a stale probe.
- Whole-map persistence (PUT /api/mcp/servers) so deletes/toggles actually stick
(the generic /api/config deep-merge could not remove keys).
- perf: MCP probe/auth no longer hold the global skills lock, so a slow stdio
spawn can't stall every other request into a 15s timeout.
- per-tool include/exclude gating (lib/mcp-tool-filter) mirroring the CLI loader.
* feat(desktop): CLI/dashboard parity — skills hub browser, MCP test/toggle/catalog, maintenance ops, log filters
Brings desktop GUI to parity with hermes skills/mcp/doctor/backup/debug-share/
curator/memory CLI commands and the dashboard's System + Skills-hub pages:
- Skills page: new Browse Hub tab (search official/GitHub/community sources,
preview SKILL.md, security scan verdicts, install/update with live action log)
- MCP settings: connection test (tool listing), per-server enable/disable
toggle, and a Catalog tab installing Nous-approved MCP servers with env prompts
- Command Center: new Maintenance section (doctor, security audit, backup,
debug share links, curator status/pause/run, memory file status + reset)
- Command Center system logs: file (agent/errors/gateway/desktop), level, and
substring filters instead of a fixed agent.log tail
- hermes.ts API client + types for all the above; en/zh locale strings (ja and
zh-hant inherit via defineLocale)
* feat(desktop): backend model catalogs in toolset config — hermes tools parity
Completes the `hermes tools` parity gap: after picking an image/video
generation backend the CLI runs a model picker (e.g. FAL's multi-model
catalog with speed/strengths/price); the desktop toolset drawer now has the
same flow as a radio-card list.
- web_server: GET /api/tools/toolsets/{name}/models (catalog + current +
default for the active or named provider row) and PUT .../model
(validated write to image_gen.model / video_gen.model), reusing the CLI's
plugin catalog helpers so GUI and `hermes tools` stay in lockstep
- desktop: ModelCatalogPicker in ToolsetConfigPanel — per-model cards with
speed/strengths/price, in-use + default badges, disabled until the
backend is the active one; provider selection now mirrors is_active
locally so the catalog unlocks without a refetch
- tests: 3 backend endpoint tests (catalog shape invariants, persist +
validation), 2 component tests, 2 API-contract tests; en/zh strings
OpenCode Go serves minimax/qwen via Anthropic Messages (base URL without
/v1 — the SDK appends /v1/messages) and glm/kimi/deepseek/mimo via OpenAI
chat completions (base URL WITH /v1). The runtime stripped /v1 for
anthropic-routed models, and the TUI/desktop + gateway persisted that
stripped URL to model.base_url. Every later chat_completions model then
POSTed to https://opencode.ai/zen/go/chat/completions — a 404 (the
marketing site). Result: only minimax worked; glm/deepseek/kimi all 404ed.
- New normalize_opencode_base_url(): symmetric /v1 normalization —
strip for anthropic_messages, re-append for chat_completions /
codex_responses on opencode.ai hosts (heals persisted stripped URLs;
custom proxy overrides untouched)
- Applied at all three former one-way strip sites (resolve_runtime_provider
x2, switch_model)
- opencode_model_api_mode: all Qwen models on Go AND Zen now route via
/v1/messages per current published endpoint tables (previously only
qwen3.7-max on Go — qwen3.6-plus etc. would 404 the same way)
- Catalog refresh: Go gains deepseek-v4-pro/flash, glm-5.2,
kimi-k2.7-code, minimax-m3, qwen3.7-plus; Zen gains glm-5.2,
kimi-k2.7-code, minimax-m3, qwen3.7-plus
Reported by IndieSuperhuman on X: opencode-go 404s for any model other
than minimax.
A single-model Hermes agent never sends temperature; the provider default
applies. MoA hardcoded reference_temperature=0.6 / aggregator_temperature=0.4,
and the coercion float(preset.get(key, 0.6) or 0.6) made unset IMPOSSIBLE to
express: absent, null, empty, and even an explicit 0 all collapsed to the
baked-in default. Every MoA advisor and aggregator therefore ran at 0.6/0.4
while the same model running solo used the provider default — silently
skewing solo-vs-MoA comparisons and overriding provider-tuned defaults.
- moa_config normalization: temperatures coerce to None when absent/blank/
invalid (new _coerce_float_or_none); explicit values incl. 0 honored.
- moa_loop: _preset_temperature() resolves preset values; None flows to
call_llm, which already omits the parameter when None (same contract as
max_tokens). Aggregator still inherits the acting agent's own configured
temperature when the preset doesn't pin one.
- conversation_loop (context-mode MoA): same resolution, no more hardcoded
0.6/0.4 at the call site.
- DEFAULT_CONFIG preset + web_server payload models + docs updated: unset
is the default, pinning stays available.
hermes debug share reads os.getenv — the invoking terminal's environment — but
launchd/systemd and the desktop-spawned `serve` backend load credentials from
~/.hermes/.env, not the login shell. A key exported in the shell but absent
from .env is invisible to the backend, yet the dump printed a bare "set",
sending support down a phantom "the key is configured" path.
This was the actual trap behind a "Desktop has no web_search / no tools"
report: FIRECRAWL_API_KEY was a shell export (so `debug share` in a terminal
read "firecrawl set") but not in .env, so the launchd backend's
check_web_api_key returned False and web_search was gated off — which a
contributor then misdiagnosed as a missing `desktop` platform registration.
The dump now annotates any key set in-process but missing from ~/.hermes/.env
with "(shell only — not in .env; managed/desktop backend may not see it)" so
the mismatch is obvious instead of hidden behind "set".
Follow-up to @helix4u's #57336 salvage. Two review findings:
- W1: model-picker grouped custom-provider rows by
(api_url, credential, api_mode) but NOT extra_headers. Entries sharing a
URL+credential+api_mode yet declaring different headers (e.g. per-tenant
routing behind one proxy) collapsed into one row and probed /models with
whichever header set was seen first (order-dependent). Fold a canonical
header identity into group_key so distinct header-authed endpoints stay
separate; drops the now-dead first-non-empty merge branch.
- W2: the extra_headers stringify+None-filter comprehension existed in 5
copies (config.py x2, runtime_provider.py, model_switch.py, models.py).
Extract one shared hermes_cli.config.normalize_extra_headers primitive;
all sites now call it.
Tests: +normalize_extra_headers unit tests, +regression test proving two
same-endpoint entries with different headers stay distinct and each probes
with its own headers. 223 targeted tests pass; ruff clean.
delete_profile stopped only the process named in gateway.pid, but a Desktop
app spawns a headless `serve`/`dashboard` backend per profile that holds the
profile's SQLite connection open and keeps writing sessions/WAL/sandbox files.
That backend is never in gateway.pid, so a CLI `hermes profile delete` run
while the Desktop app is up left it writing into the tree — rmtree's final
rmdir then failed with ENOTEMPTY (#47368 "Bug 2"), and pre-guard it also
resurrected the directory.
- _profile_bound_backend_pids(): find running Hermes backends bound to this
profile via a `--profile <name>` selector or a HERMES_HOME env resolving to
the profile dir. Tightly scoped — current-user only, backend subcommands
(serve/dashboard/gateway) only so an interactive chat is never killed, and
never this process or its ancestors.
- _stop_profile_backends(): terminate them (graceful, then force), best-effort
so it can never make delete worse.
- _rmtree_with_retry(): a few spaced retries absorb the ENOTEMPTY / Windows
file-lock race from a just-terminated writer's in-flight -wal/-shm/sandbox
writes instead of failing the whole delete on a race the next attempt wins.
Complements the recreation guard (deleted profiles no longer reappear) and the
Desktop teardown-before-delete flow; this is the CLI-side convergence fix for a
delete run while a Desktop-managed backend is live.
Part of #47368.
The terminal-refresh quarantine filtered in-memory entries on
source == "device_code" but built removed_ids from the deleted
"loopback_pkce" source name, so the revoked device-code entry was
never pruned from the persisted pool in auth.json. Also restores the
_print_loopback_ssh_hint test suite scoped to Spotify (the helper's
remaining caller) instead of deleting it wholesale.
Replace the loopback/PKCE-callback server and manual-paste fallback with
the RFC 8628 device-code flow as the only xAI Grok OAuth login path. The
flow works in headless/SSH/container sessions with no 127.0.0.1 listener,
shrinking the local attack surface.
- Poll the token endpoint with server-provided interval, honoring
slow_down and expires_in; store tokens with auth_mode
oauth_device_code.
- Adaptive proactive refresh skew for short-lived device-code JWTs;
rotated tokens sync back to auth.json, the global root store, and the
credential pool (no refresh-token replay).
- Clear source suppression on successful re-login (CLI + dashboard) and
drop the duplicate dashboard pool entry so exactly one seeded
device_code entry exists.
- Use the shared device_code source name for consistency with the
nous/codex device-code providers.
- Desktop: remove the loopback OAuth flow states and dead type variants;
pkce providers' sign-in URL selection is unchanged.
- Docs (EN + zh-Hans) rewritten for device-code login; drop the deleted
--manual-paste flag from documented commands.
Named providers / custom_providers entries in config.yaml now accept an
extra_headers dict scoped to that endpoint — for reverse proxies, API
gateways, and custom auth schemes (e.g. Cloudflare Access service tokens).
- hermes_cli/config.py: normalize extra_headers on provider entries
(_normalize_custom_provider_entry + providers-dict translation), add
get_custom_provider_extra_headers /
apply_custom_provider_extra_headers_to_client_kwargs helpers keyed on
base_url (case/trailing-slash insensitive, no substring bypass —
mirrors the TLS helpers)
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py: surface extra_headers in the resolved
runtime for named custom providers (providers dict, legacy
custom_providers list, and the credential-pool path)
- run_agent.py / agent/agent_init.py: merge per-provider extra_headers
onto the OpenAI client default_headers at construction and on every
_apply_client_headers_for_base_url re-application (credential swaps,
rebuilds), most-specific level wins; OpenAI-wire only (native
Anthropic/Bedrock scoped out)
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: accept model.extra_headers as an alias of
model.default_headers for the global variant
- cli-config.yaml.example: documented commented example
- Header values are treated as secrets and never logged
Salvaged from PR #3526 by @jneeee, reimplemented against current main.
Co-authored-by: Teknium <127238744+teknium1@users.noreply.github.com>
Salvage of the surviving hunk of #3296 by @Mibayy. The PR's gateway
_handle_provider_command hunk targets code removed on main (/provider was
absorbed into /model + /status, which already read model.base_url); the
hermes status mislabel was the remaining live symptom:
_effective_provider_label() only checked the legacy OPENAI_BASE_URL env var,
so a custom endpoint configured canonically in config.yaml still displayed
as OpenRouter.
delegation.max_concurrent_children is now the single cap for both a
batch's parallelism and concurrent background delegation units.
- _get_max_async_children() delegates to _get_max_concurrent_children();
a leftover max_async_children key logs a one-time deprecation warning
- config v32→33 migration removes the stale key, folding a raised
max_async_children into max_concurrent_children (max wins, no lost
headroom)
- capacity error messages now point at max_concurrent_children
- pool-at-capacity sync fallback now attaches an explanatory note so
the model/user know why the call blocked instead of dispatching async
Previously users who raised max_concurrent_children (e.g. to 15) still
hit the invisible default-3 async cap: the 4th background delegate_task
silently ran inline, blocking the turn with no signal.
MoA per-turn latency is dominated by advisor GENERATION: turn wall time
correlates ~0.88 with output tokens and ~-0.03 with input tokens (measured over
52 turns). Each turn waits for the slowest advisor to finish writing, and
advisors were uncapped — writing multi-thousand-token essays the aggregator
only needs the gist of.
Add an opt-in per-preset reference_max_tokens knob (mirrors reference_temperature)
that caps ADVISOR output only; the acting aggregator is never capped. Default
None = uncapped, so existing presets are byte-for-byte unchanged (no regression).
Wired through both MoA execution paths (MoAChatCompletions.create and
aggregate_moa_context).
E2E: same task, closed preset uncapped vs reference_max_tokens=600 -> 59s to 33s
(~44% faster), final answer identical/correct.
- hermes_cli/moa_config.py: _coerce_int_or_none helper + reference_max_tokens
in _normalize_preset/_default_preset/flattened view
- agent/moa_loop.py: read preset.reference_max_tokens, pass to reference fan-out
- agent/conversation_loop.py: pass reference_max_tokens on the per-turn path
- tests + docs
Ben caught that the initial approach (widening _NOUS_PORTAL_ALLOWED_HOSTS to
include the staging host) was the wrong fix -- env vars are supposed to
override the allowlist, mirroring how NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL already
bypasses _ALLOWED_NOUS_INFERENCE_HOSTS via _nous_inference_env_override().
The actual bug: both resolve_nous_access_token and
resolve_nous_runtime_credentials read
`_optional_base_url(state.get("portal_base_url")) or os.getenv(...) or ...`
-- a plain `or` chain where the STORED state value wins first (short-circuits
before the env vars are even read), and then whichever value won gets run
through the same _NOUS_PORTAL_ALLOWED_HOSTS gate regardless of its source.
So a hosted agent stamped with HERMES_PORTAL_BASE_URL=<staging> in its env
AND a staging portal_base_url already persisted to auth.json would still
get silently rewritten to prod on every refresh, because the env var never
even got a chance to be consulted.
Revert the previous _NOUS_PORTAL_ALLOWED_HOSTS widening entirely --
staying prod-only preserves the allowlist's actual job (rejecting an
untrusted network-provided portal_base_url persisted to auth.json by a
compromised Portal response).
Add _nous_portal_env_override() (mirrors _nous_inference_env_override())
and restructure both call sites so the env override is checked FIRST and,
when set, wins outright and skips the allowlist gate entirely -- the
allowlist only ever runs against the fallback (stored-state-or-default)
path now.
Rewrote tests/hermes_cli/test_nous_portal_staging_allowlist.py to test the
actual fix: the helper function, and an end-to-end
resolve_nous_access_token proof that the env override wins even when state
ALSO has the staging host stored (the exact incident shape), that it wins
over a stored PROD host too, and that the allowlist's heal-to-prod
behaviour for an untrusted stored value is preserved when no override is
set.
The salvaged fix wired per-provider ssl_ca_cert / ssl_verify (and
HERMES_CA_BUNDLE) into the MAIN OpenAI client. This follow-up:
- Auxiliary client parity: process_bootstrap.build_keepalive_http_client
accepts and forwards verify; auxiliary_client._resolve_aux_verify mirrors
the main-client TLS resolution (via load_config_readonly, the read-only
fast path) so compression/vision/web_extract/title-gen/session_search
honor the same per-provider CA. Without this, chat worked against a
private-CA endpoint but every auxiliary call still failed APIConnectionError.
- switch_model now reads custom_providers from live config (load_config_readonly)
instead of the init-time agent._custom_providers snapshot, so ssl_ca_cert /
ssl_verify edits are honored on mid-session model switch — matching the
context-length reload (#15779).
- Drop the dead client-level verify= where a custom httpx transport is used
(httpx ignores it there); verify lives on the transport. Fix docstrings.
Applies to both run_agent._build_keepalive_http_client and process_bootstrap.
- resolve_httpx_verify: add CURL_CA_BUNDLE to the env chain (consistency with
agent/ssl_guard._CA_BUNDLE_ENV_VARS) and emit a loud logger.warning naming
the endpoint whenever ssl_verify:false disables verification.
- get_custom_provider_tls_settings: case-insensitive base_url match (config
dedup already lowercases; scheme/host are case-insensitive) so a mixed-case
entry doesn't silently drop its CA. Exact match preserved — no prefix bypass.
- Demote best-effort except Exception: pass in agent_init/switch_model to
logger.debug(exc_info=True).
- Tests for aux verify forwarding, _resolve_aux_verify, case-insensitive
match, and prefix-bypass rejection.
Wire ssl_ca_cert and ssl_verify through custom_providers config and env
vars into the keepalive httpx client, fixing APIConnectionError against
mkcert/self-signed Ollama proxies behind HTTPS.
In the interactive CLI, /journey dispatched straight to `args.func(args)`,
letting Rich write ANSI to stdout — which patch_stdout's StdoutProxy passes
through as literal `?[38;2;…m` garbage. Route the read-only views (default +
`list`) through a captured, force-color Console and re-emit via `_cprint`
(prompt_toolkit's ANSI parser), matching the `ChatConsole` idiom.
`delete`/`edit` stay on real stdio since they prompt / open `$EDITOR`.
The /codex-runtime slash command short-circuits with "openai_runtime
already set" when invoked with the same value as the current config,
and crucially skips the entire migration block below. The check
conflates two things: (a) "the config value is correct" and (b) "the
world state (managed block in ~/.codex/config.toml, hermes-tools MCP
callback, plugin discovery) is converged".
Common footgun this exposes: a user who pre-sets
`model.openai_runtime: codex_app_server` directly in config.yaml
(reasonable thing to do) and then runs /codex-runtime codex_app_server
to trigger migration sees "already set" and silently gets no migration.
~/.codex/config.toml never receives the managed block, the hermes-tools
MCP callback never registers, and codex falls through to its default
runtime instead of the app-server one — visibly successful but
functionally partial setup.
The migration is idempotent by design (it replaces its own managed
block in place between MIGRATION_MARKER and MIGRATION_END_MARKER), so
re-running it is safe and cheap. Fix the short-circuit to fall through
to migration when re-applying codex_app_server while skipping the
config persist (no value-level change needed). The disable case
(re-applying "auto") still short-circuits because disabling doesn't
touch ~/.codex/config.toml at all.
The user-visible message changes to "openai_runtime already set to
codex_app_server — re-applying migration" so re-runs surface what
happened.
Regression test (test_reapply_codex_app_server_runs_migration) asserts:
- migrate() was called when re-applying
- persist_callback was NOT called (no config write on no-op transitions)
- migration output (MCP servers, sandbox default) surfaces in the
user-visible message
- requires_new_session is True so callers know to /reset
Verified RED→GREEN: the test fails on origin/main with
"migration must run on reapply, not just first enable" and passes with
this fix. Full test_codex_runtime_switch.py suite: 31 passed.
Adds Vertex AI as a first-class provider for Gemini models via Vertex's
OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Vertex authenticates with short-lived OAuth2
access tokens (service-account JSON or ADC), not a static API key — the
missing piece behind the recurring requests (#13484, #12639, #56259).
- agent/vertex_adapter.py: OAuth2 token minting + refresh-on-expiry
(5-min margin), ADC->service-account fallback, global vs regional
endpoint URLs. Config precedence: env var > config.yaml > default.
- plugins/model-providers/vertex/: provider profile (auth_type=vertex),
reuses Gemini's extra_body.google.thinking_config translation.
- runtime_provider: vertex short-circuit BEFORE the credential pool so a
credentials-file path is never mistaken for a static API key; mints a
fresh token + computes base_url per resolve.
- run_agent + conversation_loop: _try_refresh_vertex_client_credentials()
re-mints the token and rebuilds the client on a mid-session 401, so a
long-lived gateway agent survives token expiry (~1h).
- auxiliary_client: vertex auth_type branch for side-LLM tasks.
- config.yaml: vertex.project_id / vertex.region (non-secret, bridged to
env); credential path stays in .env (VERTEX_CREDENTIALS_PATH).
- setup wizard + model picker: dedicated _model_flow_vertex; curated
google/gemini-* model list; --provider choices.
- pricing/metadata: Vertex prices off the gemini docs snapshot; endpoint
host auto-maps to the vertex provider (no probe spam).
- lazy_deps + pyproject [vertex] extra: google-auth, opt-in only.
- docs: guides/google-vertex.md + providers page; tests for adapter +
runtime resolution.
Salvages and modernizes #8427 by @slawt onto current main: rewired from
the legacy PROVIDER_REGISTRY path to the provider-profile architecture,
moved non-secret config out of .env into config.yaml, and added the
per-turn 401 token-refresh the original lacked.
resolve_nous_runtime_credentials / resolve_nous_access_token now read via
_load_provider_state_with_source (and write via _save_provider_state_to_source).
TestEnvOverrideWins mocked only the old _load_provider_state, so the real
(empty) state was read → AuthError. Mock the new boundary too, returning
(state, None) so the write-through helper treats it as the active store.
The salvaged PR guarded only resolve_nous_access_token; the primary
resolve_nous_runtime_credentials path also POSTs the refresh token to
portal_base_url on refresh with no allowlist check. Mirror the guard
there so a poisoned host can't receive the bearer, and drop the stray
duplicated allowlist comment. Adds a sibling-site regression test.
Add tmp_path symlink regression tests for both generate_systemd_unit and
generate_launchd_plist (~/.local/bin/node -> profile node install must not
leak the profile target into the generated unit PATH). Register
jearnest11's AUTHOR_MAP entry for the salvage cherry-pick.
Reworks @valenteff's #53277 fix per review (Teknium's 3 findings):
- Route refresh_launchd_plist_if_needed's bootstrap through the existing
_launchctl_bootstrap() EIO-recovery helper (canonical since #56256),
wrapped in a wall-clock retry loop, instead of an ad-hoc 5x2s loop.
- Window sized to agent.restart_drain_timeout (default 180s), not a fixed
~10s: the failure happens while the old gateway is still draining (finding 1).
- Retry on subprocess.TimeoutExpired too, not just CalledProcessError — a
bootstrap timeout after bootout otherwise escapes and leaves the service
unloaded (finding 2).
- Confirm success with launchctl list, not a bare bootstrap exit 0 (finding 3);
mirror verify+drain-window in the detached-helper bash path.
- Shared helpers _launchd_reload_log_path / _append_launchd_reload_log /
_launchctl_label_registered / _retry_launchctl_bootstrap_until_registered.
3 new tests cover retry-until-listed, TimeoutExpired-retried, deadline-exhaust.
E2E: real reload log + mocked launchctl — retries CalledProcessError+TimeoutExpired,
verifies via launchctl list, logs failures.
Follow-up on the salvaged #47491 commits:
- Register _plugin_api_runtime_gate BEFORE the auth middlewares so it
executes AFTER them, and add an explicit auth check: unauthenticated
requests to /api/plugins/<name>/ fall through to auth's 401 instead of
this gate's 404. Prevents the gate from becoming a plugin-name oracle
(an unauthenticated caller could otherwise fingerprint installed/enabled
plugins by status code). Keeps test_non_kanban_plugin_route_requires_auth
green.
- Enable the 'example' user plugin in the _install_example_plugin test
fixture so the auth / static-asset-allowlist tests still reach the real
serving paths now that user plugins are gated on plugins.enabled.
- Mark the runtime-gate unit-test scopes as authenticated so they exercise
the enabled/disabled policy under the new auth-first ordering.
Address two residual bypasses identified in review:
1. Add _plugin_api_runtime_gate middleware that checks plugins.enabled/
plugins.disabled on every request to /api/plugins/{name}/... routes.
Previously, disabling a plugin at runtime had no effect on its already-
mounted API routes until a restart.
2. Extend serve_plugin_asset to check plugins.disabled for bundled plugins.
Previously, only user plugins were gated — a bundled plugin in
plugins.disabled would still serve assets from the unauthenticated
/dashboard-plugins/{name}/... endpoint.
Both fixes ensure the enabled/disabled policy is evaluated live at request
time, not just at startup.
Adds regression tests covering:
- Middleware blocks disabled user plugin API routes (404)
- Middleware blocks user plugin removed from enabled set (404)
- Middleware passes enabled user plugin API routes
- Middleware blocks disabled bundled plugin API routes (404)
- Bundled plugin assets return 404 when disabled
- Bundled plugin assets served normally when not disabled
- User plugin asset gating still works correctly
On macOS, `launchctl bootstrap` of a label still registered in the domain
fails with 5: Input/output error (EIO). That is the *already loaded* case — a
stale registration from an interrupted restart or a bootout that didn't settle
— recoverable by booting the leftover out and bootstrapping again, and distinct
from the domain being genuinely unmanageable.
launchd_install and launchd_start (both bootstrap paths) treated exit 5 as
'launchd cannot manage this macOS version' and silently degraded to a detached
process, losing auto-start at login and crash-restart. Centralize bootstrap in
_launchctl_bootstrap(), which on EIO boots the stale label out and retries once;
only if the retry also fails does the error propagate so callers apply their
existing _launchctl_domain_unsupported fallback for a genuinely broken domain.
launchd_restart already boots out before bootstrapping (its drained job is
almost always still registered, so a plain bootstrap would hit EIO on the common
path), so it keeps its explicit pre-bootout rather than routing through the
bootstrap-first helper. Corrected the stale exit-5 comment that claimed it
always meant an unmanageable domain.
Adds TestLaunchctlBootstrapEioRetry covering clean bootstrap (no bootout),
EIO -> bootout -> retry success, persistent EIO re-raise, and non-EIO re-raise
without a spurious bootout.
Completes the #30719 restart-loop defenses. Defenses 1-2 (the
_HERMES_GATEWAY guard on `hermes gateway stop|restart` + terminal_tool,
and the cron-creation lifecycle filter) already landed on main, but two
gaps remained:
- The agent's `cronjob` model tool calls cron.jobs.create_job directly,
bypassing the hermes_cli.cron.cron_create CLI filter, so lifecycle
commands scheduled via the model tool were only blocked at execution
time (terminal_tool), not at creation. Moved the filter to a shared
cron/lifecycle_guard.py enforced at create_job — the single chokepoint
every job-creation path hits (CLI + model tool). Re-exported
_contains_gateway_lifecycle_command from hermes_cli.cron so
terminal_tool's import keeps working.
- No breaker for the auto-resume loop itself. Defenses 1-2 cover the
cron/CLI/terminal paths, but any other SIGTERM source (e.g. a raw
terminal("launchctl kickstart ai.hermes.gateway")) still triggers the
boot->auto-resume->re-run cycle. Added gateway/restart_loop_guard.py:
counts restart-interrupted boots in a rolling window (config
gateway.restart_loop_guard, default 3 boots / 60s) and skips
auto-resume for that boot once tripped. The gateway still comes up and
serves real inbound messages; it just stops replaying the session that
keeps killing it, putting a human back in the loop.
Also tightened the lifecycle regex over main's version: dropped
`hermes gateway start` (benign), required the gateway identifier on the
launchctl/systemctl branches (so `launchctl unload
ai.hermes.update-checker.plist` and `systemctl restart
hermes-meta.service` no longer false-positive), added the inverse
pkill token order, and fixed the binary-script bypass (decode with
errors='replace' instead of swallowing UnicodeDecodeError). The
create_job guard resolves relative script paths under HERMES_HOME/scripts
the same way the scheduler does, so a bare script name is scanned as the
file that actually runs.
Design and much of defense-2 originate from PR #33395 (@kshitijk4poor),
which itself salvaged #30728 (@SimoKiihamaki). Rebuilt against current
main since defenses 1-2 had already landed under different names.
Closes#30719.

End-to-end regression coverage for #32243 that asserts every runtime
branch resolving an Anthropic endpoint returns
`api_mode == "anthropic_messages"`:
* `_resolve_explicit_runtime` — the path used when a Hermes
subcommand passes an explicit `--api-key` / `--base-url`. Pins
that a stale persisted `model.api_mode: chat_completions` from a
prior provider migration cannot override the anthropic pin.
* `_resolve_runtime_from_pool_entry` — the path triggered by
`hermes auth add anthropic --type oauth` (the exact flow from the
issue). Same stale-api_mode regression pinned here.
* `_try_resolve_from_custom_pool` — the user-defined
`providers:` / `custom_providers:` path that depends on the
URL detector fix landed in the prior commit. Asserts both the
detector fallback fires for `api.anthropic.com` and that an
explicit `api_mode_override` still wins (so users who DELIBERATELY
pointed a chat_completions transport at api.anthropic.com for
OpenAI-compat experiments aren't hijacked).
Co-locates the three contracts so a future refactor of one branch
cannot silently diverge from the others and re-introduce the
"out of extra usage" 400 on fresh OAuth Pro/Max credentials.
Add a dedicated `TestDirectAnthropicHost` class to
`test_detect_api_mode_for_url.py` covering the native Anthropic host
shape (bare, trailing slash, /v1 suffix, uppercase host) plus the
two negative-space regressions that matter for security: lookalike
subdomains (`api.anthropic.com.attacker.test`) and path-segment
spoofing (`https://proxy.example.test/api.anthropic.com/v1`) must
NOT be classified as native — leaking an Anthropic OAuth token to
either would be the worst case.
Refs #32243.
Upstream #52270 added `_nous_inference_env_override()` but wired it into
only `resolve_nous_runtime_credentials`. Three sibling resolution paths
still ignored the override, so a self-hosted Nous inference endpoint set
via `NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL` was silently dropped whenever credentials
arrived through any of them:
- the credential-pool path (`_resolve_runtime_from_pool_entry`)
- the explicit-provider path (`_resolve_explicit_runtime`)
- the auxiliary side-LLM client (`_pool_runtime_base_url`)
Route all three through the same auth-layer reader so every
`NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL` read shares one normalization path
(trailing-slash stripping, blank -> empty) and the documented
trusted-bypass intent stays in one place. The override is live-only: it
wins for the base URL returned this run but is never persisted to
auth.json or the credential pool, so an ephemeral dev/staging value
cannot poison durable auth state.

## What does this PR do?
A single, perfectly valid `.env` line was being silently corrupted on read
and write. When a secret's value happened to contain a known Hermes env var
name followed by `=` — for example a webhook or proxy base URL carrying a
query parameter like `OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://proxy.example.com/v1?TAVILY_API_KEY=sk-...`
— `_sanitize_env_lines()` treated the embedded `KEY=` as a second entry. It
truncated the real secret at the inner match and fabricated a bogus second
variable. A related path silently dropped any text before the first matched
key. Because this runs on every `load_env()`, `save_env_value()`,
`remove_env_value()` and `sanitize_env_file()`, the damage was written back to
`~/.hermes/.env` and re-applied on every read — persistent loss/corruption of
the canonical secrets store.
The concatenation splitter now only acts when the line actually begins with a
known `KEY=` (so leading text is never dropped) and when every value that
precedes a boundary is a plain token. If a preceding value looks structured —
a URL/query string (`://`, `?`, `&`) or contains whitespace — the embedded
`KEY=` is understood to be part of that value, and the line is kept verbatim.
Genuine concatenations of plain-token secrets still split as before.
## Related Issue
N/A
## Type of Change
- [x] 🐛 Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
## Changes Made
- `hermes_cli/config.py`: added `_looks_like_structured_value()` helper and
reworked the split logic in `_sanitize_env_lines()` to anchor splits to the
line start and skip splitting when a preceding value looks like a URL/query
string or holds whitespace.
- `tests/hermes_cli/test_config.py`: added two regression tests — a value that
embeds a known `KEY=` is preserved verbatim, and leading text before the
first key is not dropped.
## How to Test
1. Run the sanitizer tests: `pytest tests/hermes_cli/test_config.py -k anitize -q`.
2. Confirm the new cases reproduce the bug on the old code and pass on the new:
`OPENAI_BASE_URL=https://proxy.example.com/v1?TAVILY_API_KEY=sk-embedded`
is returned unchanged instead of being split into a truncated value plus a
fabricated `TAVILY_API_KEY` entry.
3. Run the full file: `pytest tests/hermes_cli/test_config.py -q` (97 passed).

Fixes#11336
Two live cron bugs, both surfaced by @banditburai in #35616 (whose larger
watchdog/supervisor work is already superseded by the CronScheduler provider
refactor on main):
- #32896: `cron list` crashed on a present-but-null `deliver` field —
`job.get("deliver", ["local"])` returns None for an explicit null, which
then hit `", ".join(None)`. Coalesce with `or ["local"]` (same pitfall
the sibling `repeat` line already guards against).
- #33465: cron jobs 401'd on Bitwarden/BSM-backed secrets. The per-run env
reload used a bare `load_dotenv(override=True)`, which re-applied only the
.env placeholder — startup had already recorded this HERMES_HOME in
env_loader._APPLIED_HOMES, so the external-secret re-pull no-oped. Route the
reload through load_hermes_dotenv() and call reset_secret_source_cache()
first to force the re-pull (Bitwarden's 300s value-cache keeps it off the
network; override honours secrets.bitwarden.override_existing, mirroring
startup).
Tests: null-deliver regression guard in test_cron.py; reset-before-reload
ordering guard in test_scheduler.py. Migrated 31 scheduler-reload test seams
from patching dotenv.load_dotenv to the new load_hermes_dotenv /
reset_secret_source_cache seam.
`hermes debug share` printed a privacy notice and then uploaded the
report to a public paste service in the same breath — the user never got
to say yes or no. Add a consent gate: an interactive [y/N] prompt, a
--yes/-y flag to skip it, and a hard refusal (exit 1) in non-interactive
contexts (no TTY on stdin) so debug data can't be exposed silently in
scripts/CI.
- New _confirm_upload() helper gates the actual upload after the notice.
- Applied to BOTH upload paths: the public paste.rs path and the --nous
Nous-S3 path (the latter is a sibling site the original PR missed).
- The /debug slash command passes yes=True (typing /debug is itself the
consent action, and input() would hang inside prompt_toolkit).
- Rewrote the privacy notice for accuracy: secrets (API keys/tokens/
passwords) ARE force-redacted before upload; PII (display name,
platform user ID, verbatim message content, filesystem paths) is NOT,
and that URL is public.
Fixes#22016.

The --nous flag was only wired into the argparse `hermes debug share`
subcommand. The /debug slash command (classic CLI + TUI, both via
process_command -> _handle_debug_command) built a hardcoded args
namespace with no `nous` attribute, so it always took the default
paste.rs path.
Pass cmd_original through to _handle_debug_command and parse an optional
destination word:
/debug -> public paste (default, unchanged)
/debug nous -> Nous-internal S3
/debug local -> stdout, no upload
local wins over nous (never touches the network); unknown words fall
back to the default. Add args_hint="[nous|local]" so help/autocomplete
surface it. New TestDebugSlashCommand covers the parsing + dispatch.
NAS PR #349 (merged) ships a stateless presigned-PUT endpoint: the only
route is POST /api/diagnostics/upload-url, and the object's existence in S3
is the only state. There is no /api/diagnostics/confirm route — confirming
live against the merged preview returns 404.
The client's confirm_upload() therefore fired a guaranteed-404 request on
every --nous upload (harmless, since errors were swallowed, but dead).
Remove it and simplify share_to_nous() to the 2-step mint + PUT flow that
matches the shipped contract. Drop the corresponding TestConfirmUpload class
and confirm assertions; add a test that the share succeeds even when the
response carries no id (we no longer depend on it).
The separately-flagged cross-repo requirement from #349's review --
sizeBytes is now REQUIRED and signed into the presigned URL's ContentLength
-- was already satisfied: share_to_nous() sends len(bundle) as sizeBytes and
urllib sets a matching Content-Length on the PUT. Verified against the live
merged preview (missing sizeBytes -> 400 invalid_body; present -> 503 dark).
Tested: pytest tests/hermes_cli/test_diagnostics_upload.py tests/hermes_cli/test_debug.py -> 95 passed.
`hermes debug share --nous` uploads the (force-redacted) debug bundle to
Nous-internal S3 storage via a presigned URL minted by the Nous account
service, instead of a public paste. The bundle is private — viewable only
by Nous staff / allowlisted mods through a Google-OAuth-gated viewer — and
auto-deletes after 14 days. The paste.rs path is unchanged and remains the
default.
- hermes_cli/diagnostics_upload.py (new): stdlib-urllib NAS client —
request_upload_url(), put_bundle(), confirm_upload() (best-effort),
share_to_nous() orchestrator. Base URL via HERMES_DIAGNOSTICS_BASE_URL
(default https://portal.nousresearch.com).
- hermes_cli/debug.py: extract collect_share_bundle() from build_debug_share()
so the Nous path reuses the exact same redaction/collection (paste.rs
behaviour unchanged); add build_nous_bundle() producing the gzipped
{"format":"hermes-debug-share/1","redacted":...,"files":...} envelope the
discord-support viewer parses; add the --nous run path with a privacy
notice and a clean fallback (suggest --local) on failure.
- hermes_cli/main.py: add the --nous flag + help/epilog entry on
`debug share`.
- tests: test_diagnostics_upload.py (new) mocks urllib; test_debug.py adds
bundle/Nous coverage. 97 passing.
`serve` (added in #54568) reused cmd_dashboard wholesale, so it still
behaved like a dashboard: it ran a full vite build every launch, mounted
and served the SPA whenever a stray web_dist/ existed, printed
"Hermes Web UI →", and announced HERMES_DASHBOARD_READY. It's the headless
JSON-RPC/WS backend the desktop app and remote clients run — pure socket
clients that never load the browser SPA.
Mark serve with headless_backend=True (resolved once in cmd_dashboard) and:
- skip _build_web_ui entirely on the serve path
- export HERMES_SERVE_HEADLESS=1 so mount_spa() disables the SPA even when a
dist is present — only the JSON-RPC/WS/API surface is reachable
- announce the bind ("Hermes backend listening on host:port") instead of a
browser/auth-gated URL
- print a neutral HERMES_BACKEND_READY sentinel; dashboard keeps the legacy
one and the desktop port-discovery regex matches either
- preserve serve across the named-profile re-exec so it can't rebuild as
dashboard
`hermes dashboard` is unchanged (builds + serves the browser UI). Backward
compatible: old apps only ever spawn dashboard (legacy token + UI intact)
and never invoke serve; the ready-file side channel is name-agnostic. The
one behavior change is that a remote `hermes serve` no longer serves the
browser dashboard as a side effect — that's `hermes dashboard`'s job.
Tests: serve headless_backend contract, SPA-disabled-with-dist, the
HERMES_BACKEND_READY desktop parse (17/17 node), and the existing
serve/dashboard/web_server suites. AGENTS.md documents the behavior.
Generic provider:custom relays were force-routed to the OpenAI Responses
API whenever the model matched gpt-5*, and a stale persisted
model.api_mode=codex_responses survived /reset and upgrades. Some
OpenAI-compatible relays do not implement Responses semantics, which
surfaced as malformed function_call.name replay errors in gateway sessions.
- runtime_provider: route custom-provider api_mode through
_resolve_plain_custom_api_mode(), which drops a stale codex_responses
unless the URL is direct OpenAI/xAI
- run_agent: _provider_model_requires_responses_api returns False for
custom; direct api.openai.com / api.x.ai URLs still upgrade via
_is_direct_openai_url() / URL detection
- regression coverage for plain relays vs direct OpenAI/xAI URLs

A single 'hermes update' / 'hermes -p' could rewrite a hand-curated config.yaml
into a near-full DEFAULT_CONFIG dump (the 'you blow up my profile config on one
tweak' reports). Root cause: migrate_config() had ~16 independent save_config()
call sites, each author deciding ad hoc whether to materialise a value, and many
persisted pure schema defaults with strip_defaults=False. Defaults already merge
transparently at read time via load_config(), so writing them is pure bloat that
also shadows future default changes (see save_config's docstring).
Architectural fix (not a per-site patch): introduce a single _persist_migration()
chokepoint that enforces one invariant — a migration may persist only values that
DIFFER from the current schema default, plus explicit removals/renames of user
data; pure defaults are never written. Every migration write (all 17 sites incl.
the version-bump finalizer) now routes through it. The invariant is mechanically
correct for all cases and verified empirically:
- pure-default seeds (timezone='', curator/auxiliary.curator blocks, interim
flag, curator.consolidate=False, empty plugins.enabled) are stripped → merged
in at read time;
- non-default values (write_approval=True, model_catalog.ttl_hours=1) preserved
via explicit-raw-path preservation;
- behaviour flips (agent.verify_on_stop=False, schema default still 'auto')
preserved because False != 'auto';
- data transforms (custom_providers->providers, stt.model relocation,
write_mode->write_approval, compression.summary_* removal, MCP-disable)
persist their removals/renames.
An explicitly user-set non-default value (e.g. matrix.require_mention: false) is
preserved across the bump.
Guard tests lock the architecture: an AST check asserts migrate_config() makes no
direct save_config() call (all writes go through _persist_migration), and a
full-range v1->latest test asserts a lean config is never dumped. Two existing
change-detector tests that froze the on-disk representation of default-valued
keys are rewritten to assert the effective value via load_config() (behaviour
contract, not snapshot).
Validation: lean v1->latest migration drops from ~567 bytes to ~196 bytes;
148 config+setup and 196 profile/curator/migrate tests pass on scripts/run_tests.sh.
exact_moa_preset_name matched any bare model name equal to a preset key,
regardless of the preset's enabled flag. On the no-explicit-provider switch
path (PATH B in model_switch.py), a plain /model switch whose name collided
with a preset key (e.g. "default") silently pivoted the session onto the MoA
virtual provider — even when the user had set enabled: false to opt out
(issue #55187). The LLM driving a routine model switch could land on a broken
moa provider with empty default_preset / unconfigured aggregator credentials.
Gate the implicit bare-name match on the per-preset enabled flag. Explicit
selection via --provider moa / the model picker uses PATH A and does not go
through exact_moa_preset_name, so a disabled preset stays reachable when the
user explicitly asks for it.
Builds on memosr's sink-level opt-in gate (#29249). Enabling a
non-bundled plugin now surfaces the privileged allow_tool_override
decision at `hermes plugins enable` time instead of leaving the
operator to discover the config key after a runtime rejection.
- `hermes plugins enable <name>` prompts for non-bundled plugins:
'Allow this plugin to replace built-in tools?' Default is deny
(blank Enter / non-interactive stdin / EOF all fail closed).
- --allow-tool-override / --no-allow-tool-override flags for
non-interactive and scripted use (and a future desktop checkbox).
- Bundled plugins are trusted: never prompted, no entry written.
- Writes plugins.entries.<key>.allow_tool_override, the same key the
sink gate reads (manifest.key == discovery key), so consent and
enforcement compose end to end.
egilewski found the prior sink gate was transient: it only applied while
PluginManager executed register(ctx). A plugin could defer a direct
registry.register(..., override=True) to a post-load callback/thread, after
the scope was cleared, and still replace a built-in.
Make authorization durable by binding it to where the handler is DEFINED
(handler.__globals__['__name__']) rather than to call timing. At load, each
plugin's module namespace is mapped to its allow_tool_override opt-in in a
table that is never cleared. The sink resolves the handler's owning plugin
module and rejects an override from any plugin namespace without opt-in,
regardless of when or on which thread the call happens. Plugin namespaces
with no recorded policy are treated as not-opted-in (fail-closed). Built-in
and MCP handlers live outside the plugin namespace and are unaffected.
Adds a regression test for the delayed/post-load direct-registry override.
The opt-in gate lived only in PluginContext.register_tool, so a plugin
could bypass it by importing tools.registry and calling
registry.register(..., override=True) directly. Enforce the same gate at
the sink: during plugin load, the registry rejects an override from a
plugin without operator opt-in regardless of the path taken. Built-in and
MCP registrations (no active plugin scope) are unaffected.
Adds a regression test covering the direct-registry bypass.
The tool_override flag landed in v0.14.0 (#26759) so plugins can replace
a built-in tool with their own implementation. It works as advertised
but there is no trust gate, so any enabled third-party plugin can
silently override any built-in like shell_exec, write_file, or web_fetch
and exfiltrate everything the agent invokes through it. The only trace
is a DEBUG-level log line.
Compare with ctx.llm (#23194) which does gate the equivalent privilege
escalation: overriding the provider requires
plugins.entries.<id>.llm.allow_provider_override: true in config.yaml.
The policy shape exists, it just was not extended to tool overrides.
Fix:
* Add PluginToolOverrideError(PermissionError) for the gate failure.
* register_tool() now checks _tool_override_allowed(name) when
override=True. Bundled plugins (manifest.source == 'bundled') are
trusted by default. Every other source requires
plugins.entries.<plugin_id>.allow_tool_override: true in config.yaml.
* fail-closed: if config.yaml cannot be loaded for any reason,
_tool_override_allowed returns False. Same posture as
MSGraphWebhookAdapter.connect() in #22353.
Backwards compatibility:
* Bundled plugins: no change (source == 'bundled' short-circuits the
gate).
* Third-party plugins not using override: no change (gate is only
consulted when override=True).
* Third-party plugins using override: registration fails until the
operator opts in. The error message includes the exact config path
to add, so the fix is one config edit away for legitimate use cases.
Same migration path users went through for allow_provider_override
after #23194 landed.
Regression tests:
* tests/hermes_cli/test_plugins.py::test_register_tool_override_replaces_existing
and ::test_register_tool_override_on_new_name_is_noop_path were
written before the gate existed. Updated their test configs to
include allow_tool_override: true under
plugins.entries.<plugin_id>, mirroring how a legitimate operator
would now grant the privilege.
* New regression test ::test_register_tool_override_blocked_without_operator_opt_in
exercises both the PluginManager-catches-error path (built-in tool is
preserved, attacker plugin is skipped) and the direct-call path
(PluginToolOverrideError is raised with a message that names the
config key to set). Verified the test fails without this fix and
passes with it.
* All 73 tests in test_plugins.py continue to pass.
get_copilot_api_token now returns (api_token, base_url); the auth-remove
suppression test still mocked it as a bare string, mis-unpacking into the
credential-pool seed path and failing with 'No credential #1'.
Two changes that complete the Copilot auth story (#7731 parts 3 and 4):
1. Switch OAuth client ID from opencode (Ov23li8tweQw6odWQebz) to VS Code
(Iv1.b507a08c87ecfe98). The old ID produces gho_* tokens that return
404 on /copilot_internal/v2/token, making token exchange non-functional.
The new ID produces ghu_* tokens that support exchange.
2. Derive enterprise API base URL from the proxy-ep field in the exchanged
token. Enterprise accounts get tokens containing e.g.
"proxy-ep=proxy.enterprise.githubcopilot.com" which is converted to
"https://api.enterprise.githubcopilot.com" and stored in the credential
pool. Individual accounts (no proxy-ep) continue using the default URL.
The COPILOT_API_BASE_URL env var remains as a user escape hatch.
Tested on both Individual and Enterprise Copilot accounts:
- Individual: device flow works, exchange succeeds, base_url=None (default)
- Enterprise: device flow works, exchange succeeds, 39 models returned
including claude-opus-4.6-1m (936K), enterprise base URL derived
Parts 3 and 4 of #7731.
Add a `pre_verify` user/plugin/shell hook fired once per turn when the agent
edited code and is about to finish, after the existing verify-on-stop guard. A
hook can keep the agent going one more turn (run a check, defer it, tidy the
diff) by returning {"action":"continue","message":...} (the Claude-Code Stop
shape {"decision":"block","reason":...} is accepted too). Hooks receive coding,
attempt, final_response, and sorted changed_paths so they can self-scope and
self-throttle; the path is bounded by agent.max_verify_nudges and preserves
message-role alternation.
Hermes still ships its default coding guidance (agent.verify_guidance, on by
default), but it now rides the evidence-based verify-on-stop missing-evidence
nudge instead of a separate default pre_verify continuation, so it costs no
extra model turn of its own. Guidance reuses the shared utils.is_truthy_value
parser rather than a local copy.
degraded is the same wedge class as draining: the gateway came up with
some platforms queued for retry, fell through to the running state
(gateway/run.py #5196), and is serving. A hard-kill there strands
gateway_state=degraded, which (like draining) is not in _AUTOSTART_STATES
and is not an operator stop or a failed boot — so it would stay DOWN
forever on every recreate. Add degraded to _TRANSIENT_RUNNING_STATES so
the fallback path normalises it to running-intent too.
A gateway hard-killed while draining (a container/VM recreate SIGTERMs it
before _stop_impl reaches its terminal-state persist) leaves
gateway_state.json frozen at 'draining'. With no explicit desired_state to
fall back to, container_boot read that transient value literally, found it
not in _AUTOSTART_STATES, and left the gateway DOWN on every subsequent
boot — dashboard up, messaging silently dark. Observed on a relay-opted-in
staging instance (2026-06): the s6 gateway-default slot kept its 'down'
marker across recreates and the gateway never came back.
'draining' is a transient sub-state of RUNNING (written by the drain
watcher / scale-to-zero go-dormant path), never an operator stop and never
a failed boot. Normalise it to 'running' in the gateway_state fallback so a
stranded drain marker reads as the run-intent it represents. This extends
gateway/run.py's #42675 handling (persist 'running' on an unexpected signal)
to the case where the gateway died before persisting anything at all.
'starting'/'startup_failed' are deliberately NOT normalised — those mean a
mid-boot death and must stay down to avoid the crash-loop the down-marker
guard prevents. An explicit desired_state still wins verbatim, so an
operator stop survives a transient 'draining' runtime value.
Tests: draining named-profile + default-root autostart (both fail without
the fix), plus a guard that an explicit desired_state=stopped still blocks a
draining runtime.
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.
The register path builds each profile-gateway slot in a sibling staging
dir under /run/service (the scandir s6-svscan watches), then atomically
renames it to the live gateway-<profile> name. The staging dir was named
gateway-<profile>.tmp — a NON-dotfile — so a concurrent `s6-svscanctl -a`
rescan (fired by the cont-init reconciler registering gateway-default, or
by a sibling register) would supervise the half-built slot the moment it
had a valid type/run: s6-supervise spawns AS ROOT and mkdirs supervise/
root-owned 0700, then the in-flight _seed_supervise_skeleton early-returns
on the now-existing supervise/ and the next `mkdir supervise/event` hits
PermissionError.
That is the arm64-only CI flake on
test_s6_unregister_removes_service_dir_in_live_container
(PermissionError: /run/service/gateway-phase3test.tmp/supervise/event) —
arm64-only because the native-arm runner's wider scheduling jitter lets
the rescan land inside the ~ms seed window; amd64 ran 30/30 clean.
Fix: dot-prefix the staging dir (.gateway-<profile>.tmp) in both register
paths (S6ServiceManager.register_profile_gateway and
container_boot._register_service). s6-svscan skips any scandir entry whose
name begins with '.', so the half-built slot can never be supervised
mid-build. The atomic rename to the dotless live name is unchanged.
Verified on a real s6 image (amd64): a non-dotted staging dir is picked up
by an svscanctl -a rescan (SUPERVISED owner=root) while a dot-prefixed one
is ignored (NOT-SUPERVISED). Added a docker-harness regression test that
asserts both, plus a unit test that the staging dir is dot-prefixed.
When the dashboard gateway has no local session cookie, it rendered a
click-through /login interstitial — even though the Nous portal's
/oauth/authorize auto-approves any current member of the dashboard's org
and is a silent 302 when the user already holds a portal session. For the
common case (clicking a hosted-agent dashboard link while signed in to the
portal) that interstitial click is pure friction.
This makes the gate auto-initiate the OAuth redirect on an unauthenticated
HTML document load instead of rendering the interstitial, when exactly one
interactive provider is registered. A one-shot loop-guard cookie
(hermes_sso_attempt, 60s TTL) ensures that a genuinely absent portal
session (the portal bounces back still-unauthenticated) falls back to the
/login page after exactly one bounce rather than ping-ponging forever. The
marker is cleared on a successful callback and whenever the gate falls back
to /login.
Security: this removes a human CLICK, not a security check. The redirect
lands on the existing /auth/login route and runs the unchanged PKCE
auth-code flow; token verification, audience checks, redirect-URI match,
and org-membership checks are all untouched. /api/* fetches still get the
401 JSON envelope (never a 302 a fetch() would follow opaquely), and with
two or more providers the /login chooser still renders.
Phase 1 of the cloud-auto-discovery work.
resolve_custom_provider() previously returned api_key_env_vars=()
for every custom provider entry, silently dropping the configured
key_env field. This caused 401 errors for any custom provider that
required an API key via environment variable (e.g. Xiaomi MiMo Token
Plan, self-hosted OpenAI-compatible servers).
The key_env field is already documented in _VALID_CUSTOM_PROVIDER_FIELDS
and normalized by normalize_custom_provider_entry(), so this was just
an oversight in the ProviderDef construction.
Also adds a regression test that verifies key_env is properly
propagated into the resolved ProviderDef.
The first ship of verify-on-stop (config v30) defaulted
DEFAULT_CONFIG agent.verify_on_stop to a literal True, and migrate_config
persists defaults with strip_defaults=False — so every install that updated
through v30 had verify_on_stop: true written into config.yaml as a literal.
The v30->v31 migration only flipped missing/'auto' values to false and
deliberately preserved an explicit bool, so it skipped that entire population
and left verify-on-stop ON for everyone who had updated. A literal true was
never a user choice: the feature had no off-switch worth setting it against
until v31 introduced one, so a true persisted before v32 is always the old
machine default.
v32 migration flips a literal true -> false once, for both v30 (skipped v31)
and v31 (preserved-by-bug) installs. A true the user sets AFTER v32 is a
deliberate opt-in and is never touched.
Group DMs (multi-person DMs, channel_type=mpim) were never delivered to
the Slack bot. The adapter already classifies mpim as a DM and replies
ambiently (adapter.py:2526, is_dm = channel_type in {im, mpim}), but the
generated app manifest only subscribed to message.im / im:history — the
1:1 DM pair. Without the message.mpim event subscription Slack drops
group-DM messages before the adapter ever sees them, so 1:1 DMs worked
while group-DM ambient mode was dead.
Add message.mpim to bot_events and mpim:history (the scope that event
requires per Slack docs) + mpim:read (mirrors im:read for the
conversations.info classification call) to bot_scopes. Update the
SLACK_BOT_TOKEN / SLACK_APP_TOKEN setup-help strings and the Slack docs
(EN + zh-Hans: scope table, event table, troubleshooting) so existing
installs are told to add the new scopes and reinstall.
Reported by an enterprise customer. Note: this is a manifest/scope
change, so it only takes effect after the app is reinstalled and the
new scopes are accepted.
Tests: assert message.mpim + mpim:history + mpim:read are in the
manifest (with and without assistant mode); both fail on current main
and pass with this change.
The Keys page only rendered env vars present in a catalog (OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS
or the provider catalog); any other key a user set in .env was invisible, and
there was no way to add an arbitrary env var from the GUI (e.g. to inject a
var a skill or MCP server needs).
Backend: GET /api/env now also emits a row for every on-disk .env key that
isn't in any catalog, flagged category="custom" + custom=true and
password-masked (an unrecognised key could hold anything, so it's redacted and
reveal-gated like any secret). Channel-managed credentials stay excluded. The
write (PUT /api/env) and reveal (POST /api/env/reveal) paths already handle
arbitrary keys, with the existing env-name guard + denylist (PATH, LD_PRELOAD,
PYTHONPATH, …) enforced server-side — no new write surface.
Frontend: a new "Custom Keys" section lists those custom rows and carries an
add-a-key form (client-side name validation mirroring the backend regex; the
new row reuses the normal edit/save flow, so on save it round-trips back from
the backend as a durable custom row). i18n added for en + zh + types.
Tests: behavior-contract coverage that an unknown .env key surfaces as a
masked custom row and a catalogued key does not — verified to fail on the
pre-fix backend.
Clears the ty diff bot's warnings on the new test: pass real callables to
build_dashboard_parser (not object()) and replace the pytest.mark.parametrize
with a plain loop so the file is stdlib-only.
`hermes cron status` (and the create/list 'gateway not running' nag)
judge whether cron will fire purely from the in-process ticker's
heartbeat file + a live gateway PID. That heuristic is correct for the
built-in ticker but WRONG for an external provider like Chronos:
Chronos arms exactly one external one-shot per job and is fired by a
NAS-mediated webhook (POST /api/cron/fire). Its `start()` returns
immediately and it deliberately runs no 60s loop and writes no ticker
heartbeat — that's the whole point of scale-to-zero (the machine is at
zero between fires). So on a perfectly healthy Chronos instance,
`cron status` always printed '✗ Gateway is not running — cron jobs will
NOT fire' (or a STALLED-ticker warning), and `cron create` always
appended the 'jobs won't fire automatically' nag — both false.
Verified live on a staging Chronos instance: jobs fired and completed on
schedule via the relay while `cron status` insisted the gateway wasn't
running and the heartbeat was 370s+ stale.
Fix: resolve the active provider (offline — `resolve_cron_scheduler`,
whose `is_available()` contract forbids network) and, for any non-builtin
provider, report the managed-scheduler state instead of the ticker
heuristics, and suppress the ticker-only 'gateway not running' warning.
The built-in path is byte-unchanged. Active-job summary is factored into
a shared helper so both paths print it identically.
New tests prove both directions (chronos: no false negative even with no
gateway PID / no heartbeat; builtin: historical warning preserved) and
fail without the fix.
Add a focused contract test for the headless `serve` command (routes to the
shared dashboard handler, headless by default while `dashboard` is not, accepts
the legacy --no-open, shares the same runtime/lifecycle flag surface). Also
refresh the dashboard.py module docstring to cover both commands.
The dashboard Keys page and `hermes setup` render API-key rows from
OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, but only Honcho had an entry — so Hindsight,
Supermemory, Mem0, RetainDB, ByteRover, and OpenViking read their keys
straight from os.environ yet had no place to set them in the GUI.
Add catalog entries (category=tool, password-masked, with get-key URLs
and the tool each powers) for all six, plus the relevant base-URL/endpoint
companions. Pure declaration: the generic GET /api/env endpoint, the
save/reveal write path, and the sandbox env blocklist (which auto-derives
from tool-category OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS) all pick these up with no further
wiring.
Adds a behavior-contract test asserting every memory provider's primary
credential key is catalogued, tool-categorised, and password-masked.
`hermes profile alias <profile> --name <custom>` accepted arbitrary
strings and used them verbatim as a filename under ~/.local/bin. Because
normalize_profile_name only lowercases/strips (no regex gate), a value
like `../../.bashrc` escaped the wrapper directory and clobbered
arbitrary user-writable files. remove_wrapper_script had the same sink.
Add validate_alias_name (reusing the profile-id regex, which forbids
`/`, `.`, and `..`) and wire it into check_alias_collision,
create_wrapper_script, remove_wrapper_script, and the CLI alias action so
the rejection surfaces a clear "Invalid alias name" error instead of
silently writing or unlinking outside the wrapper dir.

* fix(terminal): require approval for host-bound Docker commands
The Docker terminal backend blanket-skips dangerous-command approval on
the assumption that the container is isolated from the host. That holds
only when nothing is bind-mounted in. Once a host path is exposed (via
TERMINAL_DOCKER_MOUNT_CWD_TO_WORKSPACE or a host-path entry in
TERMINAL_DOCKER_VOLUMES), a command like `rm -rf /workspace` reaches
real host files but is still auto-approved.
Detect host bind mounts and route those sessions through the normal
approval flow. Isolated Docker keeps the fast path. The same gating is
applied to the execute_code guard, which had the identical blanket skip.

The host-bound Docker approval fix adds a has_host_access kwarg to the
_check_all_guards wrapper. Six pre-existing tests monkeypatch it with a
fixed (command, env_type) / (cmd, env) lambda signature, which now
raises TypeError when terminal_tool passes the new kwarg. Widen those
mock signatures to accept **kwargs.

The fallback test only mocked fetch_api_models; CI still hit the real GMI
/v1/models endpoint via ProviderProfile.fetch_models and merged live
models into the result.
A config left with `provider: anthropic` but a leftover
`base_url: https://openrouter.ai/api/v1` (e.g. after a provider switch)
would route Anthropic OAuth/setup-token traffic to OpenRouter and 404.
Add `_anthropic_base_url_override_ok()` and gate the three native-Anthropic
resolution branches (pool, explicit, native) on it. The guard honors a
configured `model.base_url` only when it plausibly speaks the Anthropic
Messages protocol — official `*.anthropic.com` / `*.claude.com` hosts, Azure
Foundry endpoints, and `/anthropic`-suffixed or Kimi `/coding` proxies — and
falls back to `https://api.anthropic.com` otherwise. Aggregator URLs like
openrouter.ai / api.openai.com are treated as stale.
Reconstructed from @clovericbot's PR #3661 onto current main: the original
patched one branch with an anthropic-only allow-list, which would have broken
Azure-via-anthropic; widened to all three sites and made Azure/proxy-safe.
When config.yaml has `provider: auto` and a non-cloud `base_url` (e.g. Ollama
at localhost:11434), requests were silently sent to https://api.anthropic.com
whenever ANTHROPIC_API_KEY was present in the environment, ignoring the
configured local endpoint and returning HTTP 401 / "credit balance too low".
Root cause: resolve_provider("auto") scans env vars and returns "anthropic"
when ANTHROPIC_API_KEY is set, before config.model.base_url is ever consulted.
In resolve_runtime_provider(), before calling resolve_provider(), short-circuit
to the OpenAI-compatible resolver when no explicit creds were passed, provider
is "auto"/unset, and a non-cloud base_url is configured. Well-known cloud roots
(openrouter.ai, anthropic.com, openai.com) are matched on HOST (not substring)
so look-alike hosts can't evade the bypass and leak a cloud credential.

Second pass on the remote-project flow: the project dialog and git cockpit were
remote-aware, but the composer's Add file/folder context picker still called the
native Electron picker directly. Route it through selectDesktopPaths so remote
sessions use the backend-aware picker instead of local disk paths; preserve local
multi-select behavior and keep remote folder selection single because the in-app
remote picker only supports one directory.
Also use readDesktopFileDataUrl for image previews so an already-known backend
image path can be read through /api/fs/read-data-url, and add focused coverage
for backend file-diff routing plus the plain-folder git init/worktree path.
After the folder picker fix, an added remote folder was still half-usable:
the desktop's git GUI (coding-rail status, worktree lanes, review pane,
branch switch, file diff) all ran Electron-local git on the USER's machine,
so against a remote-gateway repo they silently degraded to empty.
Mirror the whole surface over the dashboard REST API so it acts on the
BACKEND repo where sessions actually run:
- hermes_cli/web_git.py: git/gh logic (status, worktrees, branches, review
list/diff/stage/unstage/revert/commit/commit-context/push/ship-info/
create-pr, file-diff, worktree add/remove, branch switch) shelling to the
system git, mirroring the Electron ops' shapes.
- web_server.py: /api/git/* routes (same auth gate + _fs_path hardening as
/api/fs, executor-offloaded, mutations -> 400).
- apps/desktop desktop-git.ts: remote-aware facade exposing the same shape as
window.hermesDesktop.git; coding-status / review / projects / model /
desktop-fs route through desktopGit() so local stays Electron, remote hits
/api/git/*.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server_git.py (real repo: status counts,
review classification, diff incl. untracked all-add, stage+commit roundtrip,
worktree/branch lifecycle, commit-context, gh-absent ship-info, auth) and
desktop-git.test.ts (local vs remote routing, envelope unwrap, POST bodies).
_get_platform_tools() applies agent.disabled_toolsets as a final
override AFTER reading platform_toolsets.<platform>, so a toolset
listed there stays permanently OFF no matter what the toggle write
path saves. Blank Slate installs pre-populate this list with ~27
toolsets, making most of the desktop Toolsets UI un-enableable
(issue #49995).
Fix: _save_platform_tools() now removes any toolset the user just
explicitly enabled FOR THIS PLATFORM from agent.disabled_toolsets.
Toolsets the user did not touch, or that remain disabled on other
platforms, are left alone -- disabled_toolsets keeps working as a
cross-platform suppression list for anything not actively re-enabled.
Disabling a toolset (unchecking it) does not touch disabled_toolsets
at all -- only enables reconcile it.
Verified end-to-end with the exact repro from the issue: Blank Slate
config (disabled_toolsets=['todo','memory','browser'], cli=['file',
'terminal']) -> enable 'todo' via the toggle -> _get_platform_tools()
now resolves 'todo' as enabled while 'memory'/'browser' (untouched)
remain disabled.
Added 4 regression tests. Full tools_config suite: 101 passed
(97 existing + 4 new), no regressions.
Fixes#49995
launchd restart can leave the gateway job stopped but still registered after
update-time drain logic, so a direct bootstrap hits exit 5 and falls back to a
detached process. Booting the stale registration out before bootstrap keeps the
launchd-managed restart path intact and locks it with a regression test.
Constraint: Keep upstream-facing conventional commit style while preserving local decision context
Rejected: Treat bootstrap exit 5 as expected | Leaves macOS launchd restart outside launchd supervision after update
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Directive: Keep launchd start/restart recovery flows aligned when changing launchctl handling

Not-tested: Manual macOS launchctl restart after hermes update
Folds in PR #42124 (kyssta-exe): systemd_install gained a non_interactive
flag so the 'Remove the legacy unit(s)?' prompt — the second hidden prompt
not guarded by --start-now/--start-on-login — is also skipped in headless
contexts. Updates systemd_install test mocks to accept the new kwarg and
adds coverage for the legacy-unit-skip path.
When running `hermes gateway install` on Linux/systemd, the command
unconditionally prompts with two `prompt_yes_no` questions, breaking
headless installs (SSH, CI, provisioning scripts) and ignoring the
existing --start-now / --start-on-login CLI flags that the Windows
branch already respects.
The fix mirrors the Windows path: read CLI flags first, prompt only
when flags are not provided AND stdin is a TTY, and fall back to True
defaults for non-TTY contexts. The argparse help strings are promoted
from SUPPRESS to visible so users can discover the flags.
Fixes#42065
The /api/pty handler only closed the PtyBridge in the writer loop's finally.
On child EOF the reader task closes the WebSocket, but if the handler task is
cancelled the instant the socket closes, the writer's finally can be skipped
and the PTY fds leak (#54028) — the FD-leak the regression test guards. Under
dashboard auto-reconnect this stacks orphaned PTYs until fds are exhausted.
Reap the bridge in the reader's EOF finally too (close() is idempotent), so
the PTY is reaped independently of the writer-loop cancellation race. Harden
the regression test to poll for teardown instead of asserting on the same
tick. Was flaky on main (2/20); now 25/25.
* fix(dashboard): close PTY WebSocket on child EOF to stop FD leak
The /api/pty handler's reader task returns on child EOF, but the writer
loop stayed blocked on ws.receive() until the browser sent a disconnect.
When the browser socket is half-open (no FIN delivered — common on
macOS/launchd), that disconnect never arrives, so the handler never
reaches its finally and the PTY master fd + child process leak. With
dashboard auto-reconnect (#52962), every dropped socket then spawns a
fresh PTY on top of the orphaned one, exhausting file descriptors within
hours (EMFILE / Errno 24).
Fix: the reader task now closes the WebSocket in a finally when the child
EOFs or the send side breaks, which unblocks ws.receive() so the existing
finally runs bridge.close(). The writer loop also guards ws.receive()
against the RuntimeError Starlette raises once the socket is closed.

process ancestor (breaking the #52378/#45542 loop), one asserting it falls
through to a normal recovery install when the shim is NOT an ancestor.
The guard's manual-recovery hint runs only inside the Windows branch, so
quote it for cmd.exe (cd /d, double-quoted paths) — the cross-platform
fallback hint at the end of the function is left POSIX-correct.
Map Icather in scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP for the salvage.
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).

When an LLM API call returns HTTP 4xx with an empty parsed SDK `body` ({}),
`_summarize_api_error` fell through to a bare `str(error)`, so users saw only
"HTTP 400" with no provider detail (reported on Windows in #36109). The SDK
leaves `body` empty in this case, but the httpx `response` still carries the
payload in `.text`.
- run_agent.py `_summarize_api_error`: when `body` is empty, fall back to
`response.text` — parse a JSON `error.message`/`message` when present, else
surface the raw (truncated) body. Platform-agnostic diagnostics.
- hermes_cli/oneshot.py: `hermes -z` now runs via `run_conversation` and returns
exit code 2 when the run is failed/partial with no usable final response, so
scripts can detect LLM failures (still 0 when a response — incl. an error
summary as output — is produced).
Tests: new tests/run_agent/test_summarize_api_error.py (empty-body JSON + raw
text, RED/GREEN verified) + oneshot exit-code/`run_conversation` wiring tests.
NOTE: #36109's original root cause (Windows "all providers return empty 400")
is not reproducible on current main (heavy provider-transport churn since
v0.15.1). This change does not claim to fix that root cause — it makes any
empty-body API error LEGIBLE so a future occurrence shows the real provider
message instead of a bare HTTP 400. Relates to #36109 (does not close it).
Adds a desktop: section to config.yaml so headless/VM users can make
`hermes desktop` launch correctly without a wrapper command:
- desktop.electron_flags: extra Electron CLI flags (e.g. --ozone-platform=x11)
appended to every launch. Accepts a list or a shell-split string.
- desktop.disable_gpu: auto|true|false, bridged to the HERMES_DESKTOP_DISABLE_GPU
env var the Electron app already reads. An explicit env var still wins.
cmd_gui() reads these via _desktop_launch_options() and applies them. This is
the config.yaml form of the capability proposed as a raw env var in #38934
(@1RB) — behavioral settings belong in config.yaml, not a new HERMES_* env var.

Non-root users picking 'System service' in the setup wizard were handed a
'sudo hermes gateway install --system --run-as-user <you>' recipe that fails
on most distros: sudo's secure_path strips ~/.local/bin (pipx/uv installs),
so 'sudo hermes' is command-not-found. Worse, it funnels a non-root user
toward a system install they shouldn't be doing from a user session.
Now prompt_linux_gateway_install_scope() only offers system scope when
os.geteuid()==0. Non-root sessions get user-service or skip, with a tip to
re-run as root for a boot service. The non-root branch in
install_linux_gateway_from_setup becomes a defensive guard that refuses
without printing any self-elevation recipe. Gated the matching deferral hint
in setup.py behind root too.
Follow-up to the salvaged #49129 commit. The original change flipped the
shared generic-provider merge in provider_model_ids() to live-first
unconditionally, which regressed curated-first for single providers
(kimi/zai, #46309) — and the PR encoded that regression by flipping the
kimi-coding and zai test assertions to expect live-first.
Gate live-first on an explicit _LIVE_FIRST_PICKER_PROVIDERS set
({opencode-zen, opencode-go}); every other provider keeps curated-first.
Also widen the uncapped picker + live-first sets to opencode-go, which has
the same 70+ model catalog problem as opencode-zen. Restore the
kimi-coding curated-first test and rewrite the merge-order test to assert
the per-provider contract.
Multi-agent boards leak staleness: a sibling worker's parent handoff,
comment, or prior-attempt summary gets read by the next worker as live
truth even when it's a day old. build_worker_context surfaced the text
with (at best) a bare absolute timestamp, which an LLM reads as fact
regardless of age — parent results had no timestamp at all.
Adds a coarse relative-age stamp (just now / 18h ago / 3d ago) to every
recalled-state line and a one-line 'point-in-time snapshot, re-verify
against source' frame on the parent-results section, so the worker sees
when handoffs were produced and re-checks stale ones before acting.
`resolve_provider("auto")` checked `auth.json` `active_provider` BEFORE the
config.yaml `model.provider` and env-var API-key checks. So a user who was
OAuth-logged-into one provider (e.g. Anthropic) but had set an explicit
`model.provider` or exported an API key (e.g. `OPENAI_API_KEY`) was silently
routed to the stale OAuth provider — the override was invisible and surprising.
Reorder the auto-path so explicit intent wins (the order the issue asks for):
1. explicit CLI api_key/base_url
2. config.yaml `model.provider` (safety net — see below)
3. OPENAI_API_KEY / OPENROUTER_API_KEY env
4. OpenRouter credential pool
5. provider-specific API-key env vars
6. auth.json `active_provider` (OAuth) ← demoted to last-resort
7. AWS Bedrock credential chain
8. error
`active_provider` is still honored — it's just a last-resort fallback chosen
only when the user expressed no other preference, instead of overriding one.
The normal chat/gateway/TUI/ACP/status path already resolves config.provider
upstream in `resolve_requested_provider()` before "auto" is reached, so this
duplicate config check is the safety net for the lone direct caller
(`main.py` `resolve_provider("auto")`) and any future bypass. Because every
surface funnels through this one resolver, the fix propagates everywhere with
a single edit — no sibling path re-implements precedence.
Also add a one-shot WARN when resolution lands on `active_provider` while a
populated `model` config dict lacks a `provider` key — surfacing the silent
override the issue reported without breaking first-install.
Synthesizes the two competing PRs: #29615 (LifeJiggy — config-before-auth +
the silent-override framing) and #29809 (Minksgo — the env-before-auth
reorder). #29809 could not be merged directly (bundled unrelated, un-opt-in
cost-tagging telemetry); its reorder idea is incorporated here and credited.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_provider_precedence.py — config/env beat stale
OAuth, OAuth still used as last resort, explicit request short-circuits, WARN
fires on silent fall-through. Full provider-resolution suites: 374 passed.

Fixes#27354
Root cause: called during init (or by any code path
that saves ) wrote injected schema defaults into
config.yaml as if the user had authored them. Two fix layers:
1. now only injects
when the user actually set
somewhere (root or agent). A user who never set
keeps it absent, so 's explicit-path
detection won't treat it as user-authored.
2. gains a parameter and a
new pass that removes keys matching
unless those paths were explicitly present in the
**raw** (pre-normalization) config on disk. Explicit-path detection
uses on *before* any
normalisation runs — preventing injected-in defaults from being
mistaken for user-set values.
All migration and edit-config call sites pass
to preserve their intentional default-seeding behaviour.
New helpers:
- — collects leaf-key paths from a raw dict
- — removes keys matching schema defaults
Test coverage: 4 new regression tests (59 total, all passing).
* 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.
* fix(windows): stop subprocess console-window popups + add CI guard
The single biggest source of Windows 'terminal popup' bug reports was bare
subprocess.run/Popen calls spawning a console window. The compat helpers
(windows_hide_flags / windows_detach_popen_kwargs) already existed but the
footgun checker had no rule to stop new bare calls from reintroducing the flash.
- scripts/check-windows-footguns.py: new AST-based rule flagging subprocess
calls that can create a new console — output-redirection-aware (capture/
redirect/check_output exempt) and POSIX-only-program-aware (launchctl/
systemctl/brew/etc. exempt). Comprehensive on real popups, no annotation
burden on calls that can't flash.
- Swept all genuine window-spawning sites through windows_hide_flags()/
windows_detach_popen_kwargs(); marked intentionally-visible launches
(editor/terminal/foreground re-exec) with '# windows-footgun: ok'.
- tests/scripts/test_windows_footgun_subprocess_rule.py: behavior-contract
tests + full-repo cleanliness invariant.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: documents the rule + the helper pattern.
* test: accept creationflags kwarg in psutil_android fake_subprocess_run
The Windows no-window sweep added creationflags=windows_hide_flags() to
install_psutil_android.py's subprocess.run call; the test's fake stub had a
fixed (cmd) signature and raised TypeError on the new kwarg.
`hermes desktop` / `hermes update` recover from a corrupt Electron download by
purging the cached zip + re-downloading and retrying the pack, and then by
falling back to a public mirror. That recovery is only meaningful when the
packaged executable is MISSING — the signature of a partial/corrupt unpack.
A LATE failure such as macOS code signing (#40187) leaves
`Hermes.app/Contents/MacOS/Hermes` (or the platform equivalent) in place.
Re-downloading Electron can't repair a signing failure, so the purge +
slow mirror retry just grind through another identical failure before the
build finally errors out.
Gate both recovery blocks on `_desktop_packaged_executable(desktop_dir) is None`
so a build that already produced the executable fails fast instead of
triggering the destructive download recovery. The corrupt-download path
(executable missing) is unchanged.
Salvage of #42782, re-applied onto current main (the surrounding recovery was
refactored to `_electron_dist_ok` / `_redownload_electron_dist` since the PR
was opened). Adds a regression test asserting no purge / mirror retry runs when
the executable exists, and updates the existing retry/mirror tests to model the
corrupt-download case (executable absent) the recovery is actually for.
Related to #40187 (the residual cache-purge sub-issue; the signing failure
itself is fixed by #52591).
Selecting 'Mixture of Agents' in the `hermes model` provider picker fell
through silently — select_provider_and_model had no moa branch, so it just
reprinted the current model/provider summary and exited. And the CLI session
banner rendered the bare preset name (e.g. 'opus-gpt · Nous Research'),
which is meaningless out of context.
- Add _model_flow_moa: always lists the available presets (even one), then
prints the full reference-models + aggregator breakdown for the selection
and persists model.provider=moa / model.default=<preset> (dropping stale
base_url + endpoint creds, since moa is a virtual local provider).
- Wire the branch into select_provider_and_model.
- build_welcome_banner takes provider; when 'moa' it renders
'MoA: <preset> · agg <aggregator>' instead of a bare slug. Both CLI call
sites pass self.provider.
Tests: 2 new banner tests (moa + non-moa unchanged); E2E verified the picker
persists the preset and clears stale base_url/api_key.
* fix(update): route loud build/installer output to update.log instead of the terminal
hermes update flooded the terminal with the full vite asset dump,
electron-builder logs, npm deprecation warnings from the desktop build,
and the cua-driver installer's 'Next steps' wall. All of that is
low-signal noise the user doesn't need on a successful update.
- Capture the desktop --build-only subprocess (vite + electron-builder)
into ~/.hermes/logs/update.log; print a one-line status, and on
failure surface the last 15 lines + a pointer to the full log.
- Capture the cua-driver installer's output when verbose=False (the
hermes update refresh path); concise upgrade line is unchanged.
- Add _log_only_write() / _run_logged_subprocess() helpers that write to
the update.log handle without echoing to the terminal.
The repo-root npm install keeps streaming (capture_output=False) — that
is the deliberate #18840 guard so a slow postinstall download doesn't
look hung. The desktop npm install is a separate Electron process with
no such progress concern and is captured.
* fix(update): persist full cua-driver installer output to update.log
The captured cua-driver installer output was only sent to logger.debug
(agent.log) on failure, so the 'Next steps' wall was lost from
update.log entirely on success. Write the full captured output straight
to the update.log handle (sys.stdout._log) on both success and failure,
matching the desktop-build capture, so update.log keeps the complete
record of everything an update did.
* fix(tools): let vision pick any provider+model, not just OpenRouter
hermes tools → configure → vision no longer forces an OPENROUTER_API_KEY.
It now offers the same any-provider surface as the model command: Auto
(use main model / aggregator fallback), pick any authenticated provider +
model, or a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Selections persist to
auxiliary.vision.{provider,model,base_url} — the keys the vision resolver
already reads. Custom endpoint pins provider=custom so base_url routes
correctly. Reconfigure path uses the same picker instead of re-prompting
for OPENROUTER_API_KEY.
* docs: add PR infographic for vision any-provider picker
_normalize_custom_provider_entry() ran urlparse() on base_url and dropped
any entry whose value was an un-expanded placeholder, so a caller reaching
the normalizer with raw config (e.g. the Dockerized gateway path) silently
skipped the provider with a 'not a valid URL' warning. Skip URL validation
when the candidate contains a placeholder token — both ${ENV_VAR} env-refs
and bare {region}-style templates — since those are expanded at runtime.
Closes#14457
The dashboard Config tab's Model field is a flat string with no provider
info. _denormalize_config_from_web only updated model.default and kept the
stale provider, so picking an OpenRouter model while the default provider was
ollama-local left provider=ollama-local and every call 404'd.
When the model string actually changes, infer the serving provider — curated
catalog first, then a vendor/model-slug heuristic for non-aggregator providers
— and route the switch through the existing _normalize_main_model_assignment /
_apply_main_model_assignment chokepoints so stale base_url/api_mode/api_key are
cleared on a provider change and preserved on a same-provider re-pick. Saving
an unchanged model never re-detects, so unrelated config saves keep an explicit
provider.
Closes#14058
The dashboard form is built from CONFIG_SCHEMA, which doesn't enumerate
every root-level key the YAML supports. Most visibly, `custom_providers`
is in `_KNOWN_ROOT_KEYS` but is absent from the schema — so the frontend
never sends it in the PUT body. The previous full-replace save() then
silently wiped the key from disk every time the user clicked anything
that triggered a save. Other casualties (less visible because defaults
re-mask them on load) include `agent.personalities`,
`agent.reasoning_effort`, `terminal.lifetime_seconds`, etc.
Fix: read the raw on-disk config and deep-merge the incoming PUT body
on top of it before saving. The frontend can only overwrite what it
explicitly sends; everything else is preserved verbatim.
Reuses the existing `_deep_merge` helper from `hermes_cli.config`.
Tests:
- `test_round_trip_preserves_custom_providers` exercises the exact bug:
seed config with custom_providers, GET → drop the key → PUT,
assert it's still on disk.
- `test_round_trip_preserves_schema_invisible_nested_keys` covers the
shallow-vs-deep-merge case for nested dicts under `agent` etc.
Both fail on current main; both pass with this patch.
The verify-on-stop guard fired too eagerly — including on doc/markdown/skill
edits with nothing to verify, where it pushed a pointless /tmp verification
script. Three changes:
1. Default OFF for new installs: agent.verify_on_stop defaults to false
(was the "auto" surface-aware sentinel). _config_version bumped 30 -> 31.
2. One-time migration (v30 -> v31): existing installs are switched off once,
but only when the value is missing or still the "auto" sentinel — an
explicit true/false the user set is preserved.
3. Path filter: build_verify_on_stop_nudge() now drops documentation/prose
paths (.md/.mdx/.rst/.txt/LICENSE/CHANGELOG/...) so even when explicitly
enabled, a doc-only turn never nudges. Mixed doc+code turns still nudge on
the code paths.
The legacy "auto" sentinel is still honored when set explicitly (ON for
interactive coding surfaces, OFF for messaging). HERMES_VERIFY_ON_STOP env
override unchanged.
A model selected via the CLI (e.g. /model openrouter/<uncurated-name>) was
absent from every model picker — the main picker AND the MoA reference/
aggregator slot pickers — because each provider row only carried its curated
catalog. Inject the current model at the front of its provider's row so it is
selectable and shown everywhere.

The backgrounding-contract test (test_prepare_agent_startup_backgrounds_
blocking_mcp_for_chat) failed intermittently on loaded CI shards: it stubs
tools.mcp_tool.discover_mcp_tools but NOT tools.mcp_oauth, so the background
discovery thread paid the real, cold ~0.75s 'import tools.mcp_oauth' (added by
this PR's _discover_mcp_tools_without_interactive_oauth) before calling the
stubbed discovery. On a slow/loaded runner that import plus thread scheduling
exceeded the 1.0s polling deadline, leaving calls['mcp'] == 0.
Fix: stub tools.mcp_oauth with a nullcontext suppress_interactive_oauth (the
same no-op production falls back to when mcp_oauth is unavailable), so the
test exercises the backgrounding contract without paying an unrelated cold
import in its timing window. Bumped the poll deadline 1.0s -> 3.0s as
belt-and-suspenders. Production behaviour is unchanged; the import cost was
always off the main thread.
Verified: 5/5 pass repeatedly via scripts/run_tests.sh (per-file isolation,
matching CI), ruff clean.
When an MCP server requires OAuth, the interactive `hermes` TUI froze on
startup: background MCP discovery hit the OAuth flow, which on an interactive
TTY spawns a daemon thread doing a blocking `sys.stdin.readline()` (the
"paste the redirect URL" fallback in mcp_oauth._wait_for_callback). That
thread competes with the TUI's own stdin reader for the same terminal, so
keystrokes get swallowed and the TUI appears frozen (up to the 300s OAuth
timeout). Reported symptom: "MCP OAuth: authorization required / Open this URL
... the tui is freezing, not respond to typing."
Add a thread-local `suppress_interactive_oauth()` context manager in
tools/mcp_oauth.py; `_is_interactive()` returns False while it's active, so the
stdin paste-thread and prompt are never created. Background discovery
(hermes_cli/mcp_startup.py, tui_gateway/entry.py) now runs discovery inside
that context, so OAuth-requiring servers soft-skip (raise
OAuthNonInteractiveError, already handled) instead of stealing the TUI's stdin.
A real `hermes mcp login` on the main thread is unaffected (thread-local).
Salvaged from #35945 by @zapabob (authorship preserved via cherry-pick;
resolved a conflict against main's new mcp_discovery_timeout / wait_for_mcp_
discovery refactor, keeping both). Verified E2E: with suppression the paste
prompt is NOT printed and no stdin thread spawns (raises OAuthNonInteractive
soft-skip); without it the prompt shows (the freeze). Mutation-verified
(removing the suppress check in _is_interactive fails the regression test).
76 tests pass, ruff clean.
Closes#35927.
SELF-REVIEW FIX: the original #35945 used threading.local(), which does NOT
propagate to the dedicated mcp-event-loop thread where OAuth actually runs
(discover_mcp_tools dispatches the connect via run_coroutine_threadsafe), so
the suppression was a NO-OP in production (the tests passed only by stubbing
out the cross-thread dispatch). Converted to a contextvars.ContextVar, which
asyncio copies onto the scheduled coroutine — empirically verified suppression
now holds on the mcp-event-loop thread through the real _run_on_mcp_loop path.
Added a cross-thread regression test (fails on threading.local, passes on the
ContextVar) so the no-op can't regress.
On the desktop Channels / Messaging page, the "Open setup guide" button was
rendered as a bare <a href={platform.docs_url} target="_blank"> with no guard.
Plugin-provided platforms (Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Line, Raft, Yuanbao,
…) ship an empty docs_url, so the anchor's href was "".
In a packaged build, Electron resolves an empty href against the current
document — the app's own index.html inside the asar bundle — and
shell.openPath then fails with an OS "file not found" dialog. This is exactly
the Windows error reported for Messaging → Teams → Open guide.
Fix (3 changes):
1. fix(desktop) — Only render the "Open setup guide" button when docs_url is
non-empty, and route clicks through openExternalLink so a relative/empty
value can never be treated as a local bundle path. Fixes the whole class
(every plugin platform), not just Teams.
2. fix(messaging) — Give the Teams platform plugin a real docs_url (Microsoft
Teams setup guide) so its card shows a working button instead of nothing.
3. fix(messaging) — Give the Google Chat platform plugin a real docs_url
(Google Chat setup guide) so its card shows a working button instead of
nothing. Originally from #48940; folded in here because that PR's test
was broken (it queried the HTTP endpoint, but google_chat is a dynamic
enum member that only appears after the adapter module is imported).
Test plan:
- apps/desktop — new src/app/messaging/index.test.tsx: button is hidden when
docs_url is empty; a real URL opens via the validated external opener (does
not navigate).
- apps/desktop typecheck (tsc --noEmit) clean.
- backend — test_teams_messaging_metadata_links_setup_guide: the Teams catalog
entry exposes the setup-guide docs_url.
- backend — test_google_chat_messaging_metadata_links_setup_guide: the Google
Chat catalog entry exposes the setup-guide docs_url.

A MoA preset whose reference or aggregator slot points at the moa virtual
provider creates a recursive MoA tree. The runtime guards in moa_loop.py only
surface this mid-turn (references silently skipped, aggregator raises). Reject
it at the config chokepoint (_clean_slot) so it can never be saved, and hide it
from the desktop/dashboard slot pickers so it isn't offered as a dead choice.
_normalize_preset uses bare float() and int() to coerce
reference_temperature, aggregator_temperature, and max_tokens from
config.yaml. When a user hand-edits a non-numeric value (e.g.
max_tokens: "8k" or reference_temperature: "hot"), the coercion raises
ValueError. Since normalize_moa_config runs on every model-selection
and MoA turn (via resolve_moa_preset), the crash is unrecoverable and
blocks all MoA usage until the config is manually fixed.
Replace the bare casts with _coerce_float / _coerce_int helpers that
fall back to the default on TypeError/ValueError instead of raising.
projects.db (per-profile project store) and kanban.db were missing from
_QUICK_STATE_FILES, so the pre-update quick snapshot never backed them up.
On a desktop upgrade, when the update flow removes/replaces the file and the
post-update schema-init re-creates an empty one, all user-created projects,
folder mappings, the active-project pointer, kanban board bindings, and tasks
vanish silently — no error.
Add the per-profile user-created stores to the snapshot set:
- projects.db — project store
- response_store.db — gateway conversation history / tool payloads (WAL)
- memory_store.db — holographic memory facts/entities (WAL)
- verification_evidence.db — agent verification audit trail
- kanban.db — default board (back-compat <root>/kanban.db)
- kanban/boards — non-default boards (<root>/kanban/boards/<slug>/kanban.db
+ metadata); workspaces/ and attachments/ subtrees
are skipped as large + regenerable.
Also: the directory-branch of create_quick_snapshot now routes *.db through the
WAL-safe _safe_copy_db (SQLite backup() API), matching the top-level file path —
previously a non-default board DB with an open WAL could be copied inconsistently.
Salvaged from #52930 by @0xDevNinja (authorship preserved via cherry-pick).
On top of the original (which covered only projects.db + the default kanban.db),
this adds: non-default-board coverage, the three sibling per-profile DBs that
meet the same upgrade-wipe criteria, WAL-safe directory copies, and a
workspaces/attachments skip to avoid snapshot bloat (×20 retained). 8 tests,
all mutation-verified; E2E verified snapshot→wipe→restore preserves all six
store types on the real code path.
Closes#52889. Supersedes #52930.
## Description
On macOS 26.x, `launchctl bootstrap` and `launchctl kickstart` return exit code 5 ("Input/output error"), which Hermes already anticipates and handles by spawning a detached fallback process. However, the gateway status reporting is ambiguous:
- `gateway status` says "Gateway service is loaded" (because `launchctl list` returns exit 0)
- But `launchctl print` shows `state = not running` — launchd isn't actually supervising anything
- The detached fallback PID running is invisible to the status command
- Users can't tell whether auto-start at login and auto-restart on crash are available
### Root Cause
Two problems in `hermes_cli/gateway.py`:
1. **`_probe_launchd_service_running()`** (line 1067): Determined launchd service liveness solely by `launchctl list <label>` exit code. On macOS 26, this returns 0 even when the service is only *registered* but not running (output lacks a `"PID"` field). This caused `GatewayRuntimeSnapshot.service_running = True` incorrectly, which suppressed the process/service mismatch warning.
2. **`launchd_status()`** (line 3569): Used the same binary "loaded/not loaded" check without inspecting whether launchd actually has a PID, whether a detached fallback is running, or whether auto-start/restart are available.
### Changes
**`hermes_cli/gateway.py`:**
1. **New `_parse_launchd_pid_from_list_output()` helper** — Extracts the PID from `launchctl list` output. When launchd is actively supervising, the output includes `"PID" = <number>;`. When only registered but not running, no PID field is present.
2. **Fixed `_probe_launchd_service_running()`** — Now requires a PID in the `launchctl list` output to confirm launchd is actually supervising. This correctly sets `service_running = False` when launchd has the service registered but `state = not running`, which triggers the existing process/service mismatch detection.
3. **Reworked `launchd_status()`** — Reports clearly separated information:
- LaunchAgent plist currentness (stale or current)
- Whether launchd is actively supervising (with PID)
- Whether a detached fallback PID is running
- Whether auto-start at login and auto-restart on crash are available
- When launchd supervision is known to be unavailable, explains why
4. **Persistent unsupported marker** (`~/.hermes/.gateway-launchd-unsupported`) — Written when `_launchd_fallback_to_detached()` is called (launchd exit 5/125). Allows `launchd_status()` to explain *why* launchd can't supervise even when no fallback process is currently running. Cleared automatically when a future bootstrap/kickstart succeeds (e.g., after an OS update fixes the issue).
5. **Updated `_print_gateway_process_mismatch()`** — Distinguishes the managed detached fallback from a genuinely manual `nohup hermes gateway run`, providing accurate guidance for each case.
### Status Output Examples
**Before** (macOS 26, fallback active):
```
Launchd plist: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.hermes.gateway.plist
✓ Service definition matches the current Hermes install
✓ Gateway service is loaded
{
"Label" = "ai.hermes.gateway";
"OnDemand" = true;
...
};
```
**After** (macOS 26, fallback active):
```
Launchd plist: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.hermes.gateway.plist
✓ Service definition matches the current Hermes install
⚠ Gateway service is registered but launchd is not supervising it
launchd cannot manage the gateway on this macOS version.
✓ Detached fallback process is running (PID 12345)
Cron jobs will fire. Stop with: hermes gateway stop
⚠ Auto-start at login and auto-restart on crash are NOT available.
```
**After** (normal launchd supervision):
```
Launchd plist: ~/Library/LaunchAgents/ai.hermes.gateway.plist
✓ Service definition matches the current Hermes install
✓ Gateway is supervised by launchd (PID 12345)
Auto-start at login and auto-restart on crash are available.
```
### Tests
Updated 5 existing tests and added 11 new tests in `tests/hermes_cli/test_gateway_service.py`:
- PID parsing from `launchctl list` output (with PID, without PID, empty, unquoted PID)
- `_probe_launchd_service_running()` requires PID presence
- Unsupport marker lifecycle (write, clear, persist across fallback)
- Marker cleared on successful bootstrap
- `launchd_status()` reporting: supervised, fallback-running, fallback-unavailable
- Existing fallback tests now verify marker creation
### Related Issues
- Issue #23387 (original macOS 26 launchd workaround)
- Issue #42524 (this issue)
A config migration (or hand-edit) that leaves an invalid toolset name in
`platform_toolsets` — e.g. the #38798 corruption that rewrote `hermes-cli` to
the non-existent `hermes` — silently disabled all affected tools:
resolve_toolset() returns [] for an unknown name, so the agent quietly lost its
tools with no error, warning, or log entry and degraded to text-only replies.
Surface it loudly at two points:
- After migration (migrate_config): validate platform_toolsets and record/print
a warning per unknown name, with a `hermes-<platform>` suggestion when that
would have been valid (the exact #38798 shape).
- At runtime (_get_platform_tools): if a platform was explicitly configured but
every toolset name is invalid, log a warning when tools are resolved for a
session — so an ALREADY-corrupted config is caught at startup, not only on the
next `hermes update`.
Logic lives in a new pure, side-effect-free helper (toolset_validation.py) with
validate_toolset injected, so it is unit-testable without the tool registry.
Note: the original v25→v26 migration that caused the corruption no longer
exists (config format is now v30; no migration step rewrites toolset names).
This change is the durable defense against the silent-failure mode regardless
of cause, matching the issue's "Expected: log a warning".
Salvaged from #39207 by @lEWFkRAD (authorship preserved via cherry-pick).
Tests: 9 helper cases (incl. the #38798 corruption shape, mixed valid/invalid,
zero-tools state, non-dict/scalar/non-string) + a runtime caplog test — both the
helper warning and the runtime guard mutation-verified to fail without the fix.
Closes#38798. Supersedes #39581 (prevent-in-v25→v26 — that path is gone),
#41006 / #40208 (repair-migration for already-corrupted configs).
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.

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.
Task 2.0a of the safe-shutdown drain-coordination plan. Widens the dashboard
auth framework GENERICALLY to support non-interactive (service-to-service)
bearer-token auth, mirroring the existing supports_password precedent. This is
a reusable capability — any future machine-credential provider plugs in without
core changes (decisions.md Q-C). The drain bearer-secret plugin (Task 2.0b) is
the first consumer, not the definition.
- base.py: add TokenPrincipal dataclass (the token analog of Session) +
supports_token capability flag + verify_token() on the ABC (default raises
NotImplementedError so a misconfigured provider fails loud). Contract mirrors
verify_session stacking: return None for unrecognised tokens (never raise),
raise ProviderError only on a genuine backing-store outage.
- registry.py: list_token_providers() — the supports_token subset, in
registration order. Empty when none registered (token routes fail closed).
- token_auth.py (new): route-agnostic seam. Routes opt in via
register_token_route(exact path); token_auth_middleware owns the auth
decision for those routes only — authenticate via stacked providers, attach
request.state.token_principal + token_authenticated, pass through. 401 on
missing/unrecognised token, 503 when a provider was unreachable, untouched
passthrough for non-token routes. Fails closed (never open).
- web_server.py: install the seam OUTERMOST (registered last → runs first).
Both downstream gates (legacy auth_middleware + gated_auth_middleware) honour
request.state.token_authenticated and skip enforcement, so a token-authed
service request is never bounced to /login.
- audit.py: TOKEN_AUTH_SUCCESS / TOKEN_AUTH_FAILURE events.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_token_auth.py — ABC flag default,
verify_token NotImplementedError, registry filter, bearer extraction
(case-insensitive scheme, malformed/non-bearer → ""), provider stacking
(first-match-wins, unreachable-remembered, unreachable-then-valid, buggy
provider doesn't crash the gate), and the seam's passthrough/401/503/
fail-closed behaviour. 29 new tests; full dashboard-auth suite 169 passed.
Intentionally deferred:
- The concrete shared-bearer-secret provider plugin — Task 2.0b.
- The begin/cancel-drain endpoint that registers itself as a token route —
Task 2.1.
Build status: dashboard-auth + plugin-hook suites green.
Fixes#36767.
Two complementary recoveries for the recurring "delete three cache files and
re-auth by hand" ritual when an MCP server's dynamically-registered OAuth
client goes dead server-side (IdP redeploy / DB wipe / rebrand):
- Auto-heal (token-endpoint subset): HermesMCPOAuthProvider now sniffs
auth-flow responses and, on a 400/401 `invalid_client` from the discovered
token endpoint, backs up + deletes `<server>.client.json` and `.meta.json`
and clears the in-memory client so the SDK re-runs RFC 7591 dynamic client
registration on the next flow. Conservative by construction: only
dynamically-registered (non config-supplied) clients, only the token
endpoint, only on a word-boundary `invalid_client` match (so RFC 7591's
`invalid_client_metadata` does not trip it); best-effort so a miss never
breaks the live flow. Covers both code-exchange and refresh when the token
endpoint was discovered. Tokens are preserved.
- `hermes mcp reauth [<name>|--all]`: the reporter's primary symptom — the
IdP's in-browser "Redirect URI Mismatch" — produces no HTTP signal (the SDK
only sees a callback timeout), so it cannot be auto-detected. The new
command re-auths one or ALL `auth: oauth` servers, serially: one browser
flow at a time, which also fixes the startup popup storm when several
servers are stale at once. Single-server reauth is factored out of
`mcp login` and shared.
Tests: +14 (poison helper x2; token-endpoint detection x5 incl. wrong-endpoint,
success-response, pre-registered, and invalid_client_metadata negative guards;
a bridge integration test driving the real async_auth_flow generator to prove
the detection hook preserves the bidirectional asend() forwarding contract;
reauth CLI x6). Verified against the pinned mcp==1.26.0: scripts/run_tests.sh
122/122 green for the touched suites; check-windows-footguns.py and ruff clean.

* feat(kanban): typed block reasons + unblock-loop breaker
Stops the kanban blocked-task loop: a worker blocks a task, a cron
unblocks it, the worker re-blocks for the same reason, repeat forever.
block_task now takes a typed kind and a persistent block_recurrences
counter on the tasks table:
- kind=dependency routes to todo (parent-gated, auto-resumed), never
the human 'blocked' bucket a cron would keep unblocking.
- needs_input/capability/transient/untyped land in blocked; each
same-cause re-block after an unblock increments block_recurrences,
and at BLOCK_RECURRENCE_LIMIT (default 2) the task routes to triage
for a human instead of blocked.
- unblock_task no longer resets block_recurrences (the amnesia that
let the loop run unbounded); complete_task clears it on success.
Wired through the worker kanban_block tool (new kind arg) and the
hermes kanban block --kind CLI flag, both reporting where the task
actually landed. Docs + 11 new tests; 536 existing kanban tests green.
* test(kanban): make second-block notify test use a distinct block cause
test_notifier_second_blocked_delivers blocked the same task twice with
the same (untyped) reason, which now trips the new unblock-loop breaker
and routes the second block to triage instead of blocked — so only one
'blocked' notification fired. The test's actual intent is that TWO
distinct block cycles each notify; give the two cycles different kinds
(needs_input then capability) so they're genuinely separate blocks. The
same-cause loop→triage path is covered by test_kanban_block_kinds.py.
The desktop scheduler can overwrite cron/jobs.json with its own small
set of internally-tracked crons after an update/restart, causing
partial loss of tool-created cron jobs. The previous guard only
checked for total loss (live_count == 0), missing the case where
live_count > 0 but less than the pre-update snapshot count.
Compare live_count against snap_count instead of checking for zero,
so both total loss (0 vs N) and partial loss (1 vs 19) trigger
restoration.

Closes#52144
The pre-update HERMES_HOME zip shipped on by default (DEFAULT_CONFIG +
runtime fallback both True), so every `hermes update` zipped the entire
~/.hermes — sessions DB, caches, skills — adding minutes to each update.
The shipped cli-config.yaml.example, the --backup help, and the example
config all already said "off by default," so the live default
contradicted its own documentation.
Flip the default to off everywhere: DEFAULT_CONFIG, the runtime
`.get(..., False)` fallback in _run_pre_update_backup, and the stale
--backup help string. Users who want the #48200 safety net opt in via
updates.pre_update_backup: true or --backup for a single run.
Updated test_default_enabled_creates_backup -> test_default_disabled_is_silent
to assert the new default (silent no-op, no zip).
* feat(moa): expose MoA presets as selectable virtual models
Reconstructed onto current main (PR #46081's base had diverged with no common
ancestor, marking the PR dirty so CI never dispatched). MoA is now a virtual
provider: each named preset is a selectable model under provider 'moa', and the
preset's aggregator is the acting model that answers and calls tools.
Reference models fan out in parallel via a bounded ThreadPoolExecutor (the same
batch pattern delegate_task uses) — all references dispatched at once, collected
when every one finishes, then handed to the aggregator. Output order is
preserved, failures and the MoA-recursion guard stay isolated per reference.
- Removed the old mixture_of_agents model tool and moa toolset.
- Added moa as a virtual provider in the provider/model inventory.
- /moa is shortcut behavior over model selection (default preset / named preset
/ one-shot prompt).
- Dashboard + Desktop manage named presets; presets appear in model pickers.
- Parallel reference fan-out in agent/moa_loop.py with regression test.
* fix(moa): thread moa_config through _run_agent to _run_agent_inner
The reconstructed gateway MoA wiring declared moa_config on _run_agent (the
profile-scoping wrapper) and used it inside _run_agent_inner, but the wrapper
never forwarded it — _run_agent_inner had no such parameter, so the runtime hit
NameError: name 'moa_config' is not defined on the compression-failure session
sync path. Add moa_config to _run_agent_inner's signature and forward it from
both wrapper call sites (multiplex and non-multiplex). Caught by
tests/gateway/test_compression_failure_session_sync.py on CI shard test(4).
* fix(moa): classify moa as a virtual provider in the catalog
The moa virtual provider has no PROVIDER_REGISTRY/ProviderProfile entry, so
provider_catalog() fell through to the default auth_type="api_key" with no
env vars — tripping two catalog invariants:
- test_provider_catalog: api_key providers must expose a credential env var
- test_provider_parity: every hermes-model provider must be desktop-configurable
moa already declares auth_type="virtual" in HERMES_OVERLAYS; consult that
overlay as an auth_type fallback so the catalog reports moa as virtual (no real
credential, no network endpoint). Exempt virtual providers from the desktop
parity union check the same way 'custom' is exempt — derived from the catalog,
not a hardcoded slug, so future virtual providers are covered too.
The desktop self-updater rebuilds and re-signs the .app on each user's own
machine (`hermes desktop --build-only` -> electron-builder `--dir`). With
CSC_IDENTITY_AUTO_DISCOVERY on (its default), electron-builder signs the
type=distribution, hardened-runtime bundle with whatever identity is in that
user's keychain -- typically a personal "Apple Development" cert -- which
stalls/fails the sign step (no Developer ID, no provisioning profile) or
clobbers the original notarized signature with an unusable one, tripping
Gatekeeper on every post-update launch.
Force ad-hoc signing for the local packaged rebuild instead: deterministic,
and exactly what _desktop_macos_relaunchable_fixup already finishes off.
No-op for source runs, off-macOS, when a real identity is configured
(CSC_LINK / APPLE_SIGNING_IDENTITY), or when the caller already pinned the flag.
The host-allowlist hardening (#30611) plus the refresh heal (#49735) left
the documented NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL dev/staging escape hatch unreachable
for OAuth sessions, despite three code comments asserting it still works.
Root cause — resolution precedence in resolve_nous_runtime_credentials:
inference_base_url = (
_optional_base_url(state.get("inference_base_url")) # stored — wins
or os.getenv("NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL") # env — unreachable
or DEFAULT_NOUS_INFERENCE_URL
)
A staging OAuth login persists its inference_base_url, but the allowlist
rejects the staging host and the refresh heal rewrites the stored value to
the production default. The stored (now prod) value is then read BEFORE the
env var, so the override never takes effect — every request 401s against
prod or is pinned to prod, and setting the env var does nothing.
Fix: the user-set env override is the most-trusted source, so consult it
FIRST for the URL used to build the client / returned to callers — while
keeping the PERSISTED value the validated, network-provenance one (the
override is a runtime overlay, never written to auth.json, so unsetting it
cleanly reverts to prod). Applied at both chokepoints:
- resolve_nous_runtime_credentials (no-refresh read path AND refresh path)
- the nous_portal proxy adapter, which re-validates the resolver's returned
base_url against the prod allowlist as defense-in-depth and would
otherwise reject a legitimate staging override at the forward boundary.
New _nous_inference_env_override() / split of stored-vs-effective URL keep
the threat model intact: Portal-returned URLs are still allowlist-validated
at every network site, and the env path stays ungated (trusted OS user).
Also folds in the no-refresh read-path heal (supersedes the approach in
the open #50265): a poisoned stored staging host now heals to the prod
default on read even when no refresh fires.
Tests: TestEnvOverrideWins (env wins on read + refresh paths; override never
persisted; poisoned stored heals) and TestProxyAdapterEnvOverride. Verified
the 4 behavioral tests fail against pre-fix code and pass with the fix; full
inference-validation + nous-provider suites green (85 passed). E2E-validated
against a real temp HERMES_HOME exercising the real resolver + proxy adapter:
resolver→staging, persisted→prod, proxy→staging, unset→reverts to prod.
- Remove dead `chosen_base or effective_base` fallback; _select_zai_endpoint
always returns a non-empty base URL (returns current_base on cancel).
- Add .rstrip("/") to official-endpoint return for symmetry with custom-proxy
path (both now return normalized URLs).
- Replace magic index 4 with len(ZAI_ENDPOINTS) in custom-proxy tests so they
don't break if a 5th endpoint is added to ZAI_ENDPOINTS.
Z.AI now uses a curses picker instead of plain text input for base URL,
so the existing TestBaseUrlValidation tests (which used zai as their test
subject) are migrated to MiniMax, which still uses the text input path.
Add TestZaiEndpointPicker covering:
- Selecting each official endpoint (Global, China, Coding Plan Global,
Coding Plan China) saves the correct base URL to config
- Custom proxy URL entry (valid + invalid rejection)
- Cancel keeps the existing base URL
- Current endpoint is the default choice in the picker
- Non-standard URL defaults to the Custom proxy option
The desktop bootstrap (and curl/PowerShell/docker installs) seeded
~/.hermes/SOUL.md with a comment-only scaffold that contained no persona
text. That shadowed the runtime default (_ensure_default_soul_md ->
DEFAULT_SOUL_MD), since seeding is guarded by 'if SOUL.md doesn't exist'.
Result: every fresh installer install got the empty template instead of
the documented Hermes persona; desktop just made it visible in onboarding.
- install.sh / install.ps1 / docker/SOUL.md now write DEFAULT_SOUL_MD.
- _ensure_default_soul_md() upgrades a SOUL.md still matching the known
legacy scaffold in place; customized files (any deviation, incl. a
persona appended below the comment) are never touched.
- Detection normalizes CRLF/BOM so Windows-installer drift still matches.
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.

On macOS, the desktop updater's stage 1 (hermes update --gateway) ends by
restarting running gateways. launchd_restart() SIGTERMs the gateway and
silently waits up to agent.restart_drain_timeout (default 180s) for the
drain; the manual profile-gateway loop waits its drain budget per gateway
the same way. Neither path prints anything before the wait, so the desktop
updater's live output goes dead for minutes right after '✓ Update
complete!' — users read it as a hung update and force-kill their gateway
processes to make it move (#44515). The systemd branch already announces
its drain ('draining (up to Ns)...'); launchd and the manual loop did not.
Print the stop/drain (with PID and budget) before the wait in both paths,
mirroring the systemd branch, and assert the message in the existing
launchd drain test.
Fixes#44515
When the current provider is a custom endpoint (custom or custom:*), the model
switch pipeline must NOT auto-switch to a native provider/OpenRouter based on a
static-catalog match. The user explicitly configured their own endpoint and the
same model name may be served there; silently rewriting model.provider destroys
their config.
- detect_static_provider_for_model(): skip the static-catalog scan when the
current provider is custom/custom:*
- switch_model() Step e: extend is_custom to cover custom:* so the
detect_provider_for_model() last-resort fallback cannot fire

Fixes#48305
Completes the #45006 fix. PR-base commit (configured-provider routing) handles
the case where a typed model IS declared in user/custom provider config. This
commit closes the other root: when a typed model is NOT in any config and the
current provider is a soft-accepting one (openai-codex / xai-oauth), the
hidden-model soft-accept (#16172 / #19729) would accept ANY unknown name as a
hidden model — so `qwen3.5-4b` typed on a Codex-default session "succeeded" and
mislabeled the provider as "OpenAI Codex" (the exact reported symptom), then
400'd on the next turn.
Gate the soft-accept to slugs that plausibly belong to the provider's family
(openai-codex -> gpt-/codex-/o1/o3/o4; xai-oauth -> grok-). Family-shaped
unknown slugs are still soft-accepted (preserving the #16172 entitlement-gated
hidden-model intent); unrelated names are rejected with actionable guidance to
pin the right provider via `--provider <slug>` or the picker.
Adds TestCodexSoftAcceptPlausibilityGate (5 tests): unrelated names rejected on
codex/xai, family-shaped hidden slugs still accepted, real catalog models
unaffected. Verified load-bearing.
Regression coverage for the desktop gateway-restart hang: prompt_yes_no
returns its default when HERMES_NONINTERACTIVE=1 or on a bare EOFError
(closed/redirected stdin), and still exits on KeyboardInterrupt.
Asserts resolve_runtime_provider honors target_model over the stale
persisted model.default when choosing the Bedrock dual-path api_mode:
Claude target -> anthropic_messages, Nova target -> bedrock_converse.
Both fail without the #49095 fix.
The 30-slot default could not fit Hermes's ~50 built-in commands, so
every skill command (and 20 built-ins) were silently dropped from the
Telegram \`/\` menu by default — they only worked when typed manually.
Raising the default to 60 keeps all built-ins plus common skill commands
visible out of the box while staying under Telegram's ~4KB payload limit.
Users can still tune it via platforms.telegram.extra.command_menu.
Adds a configurable Telegram BotCommand menu cap and priority list via
platforms.telegram.extra.command_menu (max_commands clamped 1..100;
priority_mode prepend|append|replace). Default cap stays 30; hidden
commands remain invokable when typed and /commands lists the full set.
Salvaged from PR #42021. Cherry-picked onto current main; the original
edited gateway/platforms/telegram.py, now relocated to
plugins/platforms/telegram/adapter.py.
Selective --clone / --clone-from / --clone-config copied .env but not
auth.json, silently dropping the credential pool — including OAuth tokens
(Anthropic `claude /login`, Codex, xAI) that never land in .env. A profile
cloned from an OAuth-authenticated default therefore resolved a different
provider (or none) than the source under provider: auto. --clone-all already
carried auth.json via the full copytree; only the selective path missed it.
Add auth.json to _CLONE_CONFIG_FILES and tighten it to 0o600 after copy,
matching .env semantics.
uperLu's #50958 renamed plugins/cron → plugins/cron_providers but left
two test files patching the now-gone plugins.cron.chronos.verify path,
which would fail collection. Point them at plugins.cron_providers.*.
Add uperLu to release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
The dashboard Profiles view showed "Gateway stopped" for a gateway that
is in fact running — while the sidebar status strip and `hermes gateway
status` (CLI) both correctly showed it running. Reported on v0.17.0
running the gateway + dashboard in one Docker container.
Root cause: three liveness surfaces with three detection strengths, all
reading the same `gateway.pid`:
- `hermes gateway status` -> find_gateway_pids() (process-table scan)
- sidebar /api/status -> get_running_pid() + gateway_state.json PID
fallback + health-URL probe
- Profiles view -> _check_gateway_running() = get_running_pid()
ONLY, no fallback
`get_running_pid()` short-circuits to None the moment the runtime lock
(`gateway.lock`) doesn't register as held by the *calling* process —
which is always true when the reader is a separate process from the
gateway (the dashboard is its own s6 service in the container), and also
for any launch-service-managed gateway that left a fresh
`gateway_state.json` but no live PID file. So the Profiles view alone
reported the live gateway as stopped.
Fix: give _check_gateway_running the same fallback the sidebar already
has — after the pid-file/lock check misses, validate the PID recorded in
that profile's gateway_state.json against the live process table via the
existing get_runtime_status_running_pid(). read_runtime_status() gains an
optional path arg so a profile's state file can be read without mutating
the process-global HERMES_HOME (preserving the contextvar-based profile
isolation the dashboard relies on). Backward compatible: every existing
caller passes no argument.
Tests: a regression test that fails pre-fix (live gateway, lock check
returns None -> must still report running) and a guard test that a
'stopped' state file is never reported running even with a live PID.
Profiles without their own messaging token inherit the default
profile's token via os.getenv, hit a token collision, and exit with
startup_failed. s6 restarts them immediately, creating ~30MB tirith
sandbox dirs in /tmp each cycle — filling the disk in hours (#51228).
Changes:
- gateway/restart.py: add GATEWAY_FATAL_CONFIG_EXIT_CODE = 78
- gateway/run.py: set exit_code=78 on non-retryable startup errors
(token collision, no platforms)
- hermes_cli/service_manager.py: add _render_finish_script() that
translates exit 78 → exit 125 (s6 permanent failure)
- hermes_cli/container_boot.py: write finish script alongside run
script during profile registration
The s6 finish script pattern follows docker/s6-rc.d/dashboard/finish.
Closes#51228
The cron ticker only runs inside the gateway (_start_cron_ticker); there
is no standalone cron daemon. When the gateway isn't running, next_run_at
passes but jobs never fire and last_run_at stays null — and manual
'hermes cron run' (which bypasses the ticker) appears to work, masking
the real cause. This is the most common cron support report (#51038).
cron list already warned; extend the same warning to cron create (the
moment the user is most likely to hit this) via a shared helper, and add
a pointer to 'hermes cron status'. Silent when a gateway is running, so
the gateway /cron path is unaffected.
Builds on @wgu9's runtime-tracking fix: now that find_gateway_pids() can
see a no-supervisor `gateway restart` runtime, have stop_profile_gateway()
fall back to an orphan-aware, profile-scoped reap (SIGTERM then SIGKILL)
when the pidfile/runtime record is missing or stale. Closes the duplicate-
accumulation path in #51325 — a follow-up restart now kills the prior
orphan instead of stacking another listener on :8644. Gated on
not supports_systemd_services() so a transient `gateway restart` argv on
supervised hosts is never killed.
Also adds the AUTHOR_MAP entry for the salvaged contributor.
atomic_yaml_write (and two sibling config writers) called yaml.dump
without allow_unicode=True. The default personalities shipped in cli.py
contain emoji/kaomoji, so PyYAML escaped astral-plane chars as 8-digit
\\UXXXXXXXX sequences inside multi-line double-quoted strings wrapped
with \\ line-continuations. Stricter/non-PyYAML parsers, editors, and
hand-edits break that structure into unclosed quotes, failing the whole
config parse -> silent fallback to defaults -> custom_providers lost.
Add allow_unicode=True to the canonical writer plus tui_gateway/server.py
and the telegram adapter's atomic config write so config is written as
readable UTF-8 with no escape/fold artifacts.
Fixes#51356
_ensure_uv_for_termux only checked resolve_uv() (the managed
$HERMES_HOME/bin/uv) before falling back to pip, so a uv installed via
`pkg install uv` lives on PATH but is invisible to the helper. Combined
with the cherry-picked wheel-only fallback, a Termux user with no managed
uv still hit `pip install uv`, which has no Android wheel and tried to
source-build the Rust crate, OOM-killing low-memory devices.
Probe shutil.which("uv") right after the Termux guard and reuse it before
pip. Add a regression test that keeps resolve_uv() returning None while a
uv exists on PATH and asserts pip is never invoked.
* fix(windows): harden gateway scheduled task
* fix(windows): launch gateway scheduled task via console-less wscript
The Scheduled Task ran the gateway through cmd.exe, which allocates a
console. During logon Windows broadcasts CTRL_CLOSE_EVENT to console
process groups, reaping cmd.exe and the half-initialized gateway with
STATUS_CONTROL_C_EXIT (0xC000013A) - which Task Scheduler treats as a
user cancel, so RestartOnFailure never fires and the gateway vanishes on
every reboot (issue #45599 root cause #1).
Add a console-less .vbs launcher (wscript.exe -> pythonw.exe, both
GUI-subsystem) mirroring the gateway.cmd env + argv, and point the task
action at it. The .cmd stays for the Startup-folder fallback and /Run.

When a session rotates id on compression, _sync_session_key_after_compress()
re-anchored the session_key, approval-notify routing, yolo state, and slash
worker — but never moved the active-session lease, which stayed keyed to the
pre-compression id. And _find_live_session_by_key() matched live sessions on
the stale session_key, not the live agent's current agent.session_id. After
compression a resume/create path failed to recognize the existing live agent
and could build a SECOND live agent against the same DB continuation -> forked
lineage / cross-session message mixing.
- active_sessions.transfer_active_session(): move a lease in place to the new
id under the exclusive file lock (no slot drop).
- gateway _transfer_active_session_slot(): call it inside
_sync_session_key_after_compress(); on the rare fallback (entry pruned)
RESERVE the new slot before releasing the old lease (reserve-before-release),
so a concurrent gateway at the session cap cannot grab the freed slot in a
release-then-reacquire window and leave this session with no lease; if the
reserve fails, keep the existing lease (review fix).
- _session_lookup_key(): make live-session lookup authoritative on
agent.session_id, wired into all stale-session_key consumers
(_find_live_session_by_key, _session_live_item, _live_session_payload) —
fixes the whole lookup class.

By default `hermes slack manifest` opts the app into Slack's AI Assistant
container (assistant_view feature + assistant:write scope +
assistant_thread_* events). Slack then renders DMs as the right-hand
Assistant split-pane, where every exchange is a thread and bare slash
commands (/help, /new, ...) are not delivered as normal command events —
they only work when the bot is @mentioned. There was no way to opt out
short of hand-editing the generated JSON.
Add --no-assistant to emit a flat-DM manifest that omits those three
pieces, so DMs render as a normal chat and slash commands dispatch
inline. The regular messaging surface (Messages tab, slash commands,
Socket Mode, channel + DM scopes/events) is preserved in both modes.
Default behaviour is unchanged (assistant mode still on).
Tests: cover both manifest modes and the argparse wiring.
f-trycua's #50855 test file predated the cross-platform PR (#50552) and
reintroduced two stale tests asserting Linux is unsupported
(test_*_non_macos_*, patching platform.system="Linux" and expecting a
no-op/warn). Linux + Windows are supported now, so install proceeds on
those platforms. Restore main's cross-platform-correct versions:
test_*_on_unsupported_platform_* using FreeBSD as the genuinely
unsupported case.
`hermes computer-use install` refused to install on Linux, Windows, and
macOS x86_64 because the pre-install asset probe was hitting the wrong
GitHub endpoint AND duplicating tag-resolution logic the upstream
installer already does correctly.
`_check_cua_driver_asset_for_arch()` queried
`https://api.github.com/repos/trycua/cua/releases/latest`. On trycua/cua:
- cua-driver-rs releases (the binary the installer fetches) are marked
**prerelease** on every cut. GitHub's `/releases/latest` explicitly
skips prereleases.
- The Python package releases (`cua-agent`, `cua-computer`, `cua-train`)
are non-prerelease and end up as the "latest" instead.
Live API check today:
$ curl -sf https://api.github.com/repos/trycua/cua/releases/latest \
| jq '{tag:.tag_name, asset_count: (.assets|length)}'
{ "tag": "agent-v0.8.3", "asset_count": 0 }
The probe sees zero assets, prints "Latest CUA release has no Linux
x86_64 asset", and skips install on every Linux / Windows / macOS-x86_64
host — even though the cua-driver-rs-v0.6.0 release ships 19 binary
assets covering all those platforms.
Filtering `/releases?per_page=N` for the `cua-driver-rs-v*` prefix
fixes the bug, but it duplicates tag-resolution logic the upstream
`_install-rust.sh` already does correctly via `CUA_DRIVER_RS_BAKED_VERSION`
(auto-baked by CD on every release, with a `/releases?per_page=N` API
fallback for dev checkouts). The right answer is to trust that
contract instead of mirroring it in Python where it can drift.
Two paths get the same outcome without the probe:
1. **Fresh install**: run `install.sh` directly. It has the baked
release tag, fetches the right asset, and errors with a clear
message on missing-arch downloads. No preflight needed.
2. **Upgrade path**: `cua_driver_update_check()` (separately added)
shells `cua-driver check-update --json` against the installed
binary, which returns the canonical update answer from the same
source the installer uses.
- `hermes_cli/tools_config.py`: delete `_check_cua_driver_asset_for_arch`
and its two call sites in `install_cua_driver`. Replace with an
inline comment near the top of the module explaining the rationale.
- `tests/hermes_cli/test_install_cua_driver.py`: drop the
`TestCheckCuaDriverAssetForArch` block. Add `TestArchProbeRemoval`
with three regressions:
- `test_probe_function_is_gone` — asserts the deleted helpers stay
deleted.
- `test_fresh_install_does_not_call_github_api` — asserts the
install path doesn't hit GitHub directly from Python anymore.
- `test_upgrade_with_binary_does_not_call_github_api_directly` —
same for the upgrade path.
All 9 `test_install_cua_driver` tests pass.
Reported by @teknium1 while testing on a headed Ubuntu host.
A typed `/model <name>` where `<name>` is declared under `providers.<slug>` or
`custom_providers` — but typed while the current provider is a soft-accepting
one (e.g. `openai-codex`) — stayed on the current provider and was swallowed as
an unknown hidden Codex model, instead of routing to the provider that actually
declares it.
Add configured-provider exact-match detection (`_configured_provider_matches`)
and a new Step d.5 in `switch_model`: if the typed model is declared in
user/custom provider config, route to that provider BEFORE
`detect_provider_for_model()` guesses from static catalogs and BEFORE the
common-path validation lets a soft-accepting current provider swallow the name.
- Matching is exact (case-insensitive) against explicitly-declared model
collections only (`models`, `model`, `default_model`) — never fuzzy/family.
- Same-provider declarer → keep current provider (canonicalize the id).
- Multiple declarers → fail clearly and ask for `--provider <slug>`.
- Single declarer → route there; for `providers.<slug>` user providers, set
`explicit_provider` so the credential block resolves base_url/key from config.
- Step e (`detect_provider_for_model`) is gated off when `config_routed`.
The deliberately-supported openai-codex / xai-oauth hidden-model soft-accept
(#16172 / #19729) is left untouched: when nothing in config matches, detection
is a no-op.
Salvaged from #45442 by harjothkhara (authorship preserved).
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_model_switch_configured_provider_routing.py
(7 tests). Full model_switch suite: 214 passed.
