Drops `lastUserAt` plumbing and the right-edge idle ticker. Matches the
claude-code / opencode convention: elapsed rides with the busy indicator
(spinner verb), nothing at idle.
- `turnStartedAt` driven by a useEffect on `ui.busy` — stamps on rising
edge, clears on falling edge. Covers agent turns and !shell alike.
- FaceTicker renders ` · {fmtDuration}` while busy; 1 s clock for the
counter, existing 2500 ms cycle for face/verb rotation.
- On busy → idle, if the block ran ≥ 1 s, emit a one-shot
`done in {fmtDuration}` sys line (≡ claude-code's `thought for Ns`).
Status bar ticker was too hot in peripheral vision. The moment the elapsed
value matters is when the prompt returns — so surface it there. Dim
`fmtDuration` next to the GoodVibesHeart, idle-only (hidden while busy),
so quick turns and active streaming stay quiet.
StatusRule now renders `{sinceLastMsg}/{sinceSession}` (e.g. `12s/3m 45s`)
when a user has submitted in the current session; falls back to the total
alone otherwise. Wires `lastUserAt` through the state/session lifecycle:
- useSubmission stamps `setLastUserAt(Date.now())` on send
- useSessionLifecycle nulls it in reset/resetVisibleHistory
- /branch slash nulls it on fork
- Fix critical regression: on Linux, Ctrl+C could not interrupt/clear/exit
because isAction(key,'c') shadowed the isCtrl block (both resolve to k.ctrl
on non-macOS). Restructured: isAction block now falls through to interrupt
logic on non-macOS when no selection exists.
- Remove double pbcopy: ink's copySelection() already calls setClipboard()
which handles pbcopy+tmux+OSC52. The extra writeClipboardText call in
useInputHandlers copySelection() was firing pbcopy a second time.
- Remove allowClipboardHotkeys prop from TextInput — every caller passed
isMac, and TextInput already imports isMac. Eliminated prop-drilling
through appLayout, maskedPrompt, and prompts.
- Remove dead code: the isCtrl copy paths (lines 277-288) were unreachable
on any platform after the isAction block changes.
- Simplify textInput Cmd+C: use writeClipboardText directly without the
redundant OSC52 fallback (this path is macOS-only where pbcopy works).
Make the Ink TUI match macOS keyboard expectations: Command handles copy and common editor/session shortcuts, while Control remains reserved for interrupt/cancel flows. Update the visible hotkey help to show platform-appropriate labels.

The setup wizard could leave stt.model: "whisper-1" in config.yaml.
When using the local faster-whisper provider, this crashed with
"Invalid model size 'whisper-1'". Voice messages were silently ignored.
_normalize_local_model() now detects cloud-only names (whisper-1,
gpt-4o-transcribe, etc.) and maps them to the default local model
with a warning. Valid local sizes (tiny, base, small, medium, large-v3)
pass through unchanged.

Models like GLM-5.1 via Ollama can produce malformed tool_call arguments
(truncated JSON, trailing commas, Python None). The existing except
Exception: pass silently passes broken args to the API, which rejects
them with HTTP 400, crashing the session.

Reasoning models (GLM-5.1, QwQ, DeepSeek R1) inflate completion_tokens
with internal thinking tokens. The compression trigger summed
prompt_tokens + completion_tokens, causing premature compression at ~42%

WhatsApp already receives incoming voice messages (audio/ogg via the
bridge) but lacked a send_voice implementation, so TTS and audio
responses fell back to the base class send_image path instead of being
delivered as native audio messages.
Route send_voice through the existing _send_media_to_bridge helper
with media_type='audio', matching the pattern used by send_video and
send_document.
Custom Claude proxies fronted by Cloudflare with Browser Integrity Check
enabled (e.g. `packyapi.com`) reject requests with the default
`Python-urllib/*` signature, returning HTTP 403 "error code: 1010".
`probe_api_models` swallowed that in its blanket `except Exception:
continue`, so `validate_requested_model` returned the misleading
"Could not reach the <provider> API to validate `<model>`" error even
though the endpoint is reachable and lists the requested model.
Advertise the probe request as `hermes-cli/<version>` so Cloudflare
treats it as a first-party client. This mirrors the pattern already used
by `agent/gemini_native_adapter.py` and `agent/anthropic_adapter.py`,
which set a descriptive UA for the same reason.
Reproduction (pre-fix):
python3 -c "
import urllib.request
req = urllib.request.Request(
'https://www.packyapi.com/v1/models',
headers={'Authorization': 'Bearer sk-...'})
urllib.request.urlopen(req).read()
"
urllib.error.HTTPError: HTTP Error 403: Forbidden
(body: b'error code: 1010')
Any non-urllib UA (Mozilla, curl, reqwest) returns 200 with the
OpenAI-compatible models listing.
Tested on macOS (Python 3.11). No cross-platform concerns — the change
is a single header addition to an existing `urllib.request.Request`.

Plugins now require explicit consent to load. Discovery still finds every
plugin — user-installed, bundled, and pip — so they all show up in
`hermes plugins` and `/plugins`, but the loader only instantiates
plugins whose name appears in `plugins.enabled` in config.yaml. This
removes the previous ambient-execution risk where a newly-installed or
bundled plugin could register hooks, tools, and commands on first run
without the user opting in.
The three-state model is now explicit:
enabled — in plugins.enabled, loads on next session
disabled — in plugins.disabled, never loads (wins over enabled)
not enabled — discovered but never opted in (default for new installs)
`hermes plugins install <repo>` prompts "Enable 'name' now? [y/N]"
(defaults to no). New `--enable` / `--no-enable` flags skip the prompt
for scripted installs. `hermes plugins enable/disable` manage both lists
so a disabled plugin stays explicitly off even if something later adds
it to enabled.
Config migration (schema v20 → v21): existing user plugins already
installed under ~/.hermes/plugins/ (minus anything in plugins.disabled)
are auto-grandfathered into plugins.enabled so upgrades don't silently
break working setups. Bundled plugins are NOT grandfathered — even
existing users have to opt in explicitly.
Also: HERMES_DISABLE_BUNDLED_PLUGINS env var removed (redundant with
opt-in default), cmd_list now shows bundled + user plugins together with
their three-state status, interactive UI tags bundled entries
[bundled], docs updated across plugins.md and built-in-plugins.md.
Validation: 442 plugin/config tests pass. E2E: fresh install discovers
disk-cleanup but does not load it; `hermes plugins enable disk-cleanup`
activates hooks; migration grandfathers existing user plugins correctly
while leaving bundled plugins off.
The original name was cute but non-obvious; disk-cleanup says what it
does. Plugin directory, script, state path, log lines, slash command,
and test module all renamed. No user-visible state exists yet, so no
migration path is needed.
New website page "Built-in Plugins" documents the <repo>/plugins/<name>/
source, how discovery interacts with user/project plugins, the
HERMES_DISABLE_BUNDLED_PLUGINS escape hatch, disk-cleanup's hook
behaviour and deletion rules, and guidance on when a plugin belongs
bundled vs. user-installable. Added to the Features → Core sidebar next
to the main Plugins page, with a cross-reference from plugins.md.
Rewires @LVT382009's disk-guardian (PR #12212) from a skill-plus-script
into a plugin that runs entirely via hooks — no agent compliance needed.
- post_tool_call hook auto-tracks files created by write_file / terminal
/ patch when they match test_/tmp_/*.test.* patterns under HERMES_HOME
- on_session_end hook runs cmd_quick cleanup when test files were
auto-tracked during the turn; stays quiet otherwise
- /disk-guardian slash command keeps status / dry-run / quick / deep /
track / forget for manual use
- Deterministic cleanup rules, path safety, atomic writes, and audit
logging preserved from the original contribution
- Protect well-known top-level state dirs (logs/, memories/, sessions/,
cron/, cache/, etc.) from empty-dir removal so fresh installs don't
get gutted on first session end
The plugin system gains a bundled-plugin discovery path (<repo>/plugins/
<name>/) alongside user/project/entry-point sources. Memory and
context_engine subdirs are skipped — they keep their own discovery
paths. HERMES_DISABLE_BUNDLED_PLUGINS=1 suppresses the scan; the test
conftest sets it by default so existing plugin tests stay clean.

* fix(docs): unbreak ascii-guard lint on github-pr-review-agent diagram
The intro diagram used 4 side-by-side boxes in one row. ascii-guard can't
parse that layout — it reads the whole thing as one 80-wide outer box and
flags the inner box borders at columns 17/39/60 as 'extra characters after
right border'. Per the ascii-guard-lint-fixing skill, the only fix is to
merge into a single outer box.
Rewritten as one 69-char outer box with four labeled regions separated by
arrows. Same semantic content, lint-clean.
Was blocking docs-site-checks CI as 'action_required' across multiple PRs
(see e.g. run 24661820677).
* fix(docs): backtick-wrap `<1%` to avoid MDX JSX parse error
Docusaurus MDX parses `<1%` as the start of a JSX tag, but `1` isn't a
valid tag-name start so compilation fails with 'Unexpected character `1`
(U+0031) before name'. Wrap in backticks so MDX treats it as literal code
text.
Found by running Build Docusaurus step on the PR that unblocked the
ascii-guard step; full docs tree scanned for other `<digit>` patterns
outside backticks/fences, only this one was unsafe.

Community report by @0xHarryWeb3
OpenAI-compatible clients (Open WebUI, LobeChat, etc.) can now send vision
requests to the API server. Both endpoints accept the canonical OpenAI
multimodal shape:
Chat Completions: {type: text|image_url, image_url: {url, detail?}}
Responses: {type: input_text|input_image, image_url: <str>, detail?}
The server validates and converts both into a single internal shape that the
existing agent pipeline already handles (Anthropic adapter converts,
OpenAI-wire providers pass through). Remote http(s) URLs and data:image/*
URLs are supported.
Uploaded files (file, input_file, file_id) and non-image data: URLs are
rejected with 400 unsupported_content_type.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/api_server.py
- _normalize_multimodal_content(): validates + normalizes both Chat and
Responses content shapes. Returns a plain string for text-only content
(preserves prompt-cache behavior on existing callers) or a canonical
[{type:text|image_url,...}] list when images are present.
- _content_has_visible_payload(): replaces the bare truthy check so a
user turn with only an image no longer rejects as 'No user message'.
- _handle_chat_completions and _handle_responses both call the new helper
for user/assistant content; system messages continue to flatten to text.
- Codex conversation_history, input[], and inline history paths all share
the same validator. No duplicated normalizers.
- run_agent.py
- _summarize_user_message_for_log(): produces a short string summary
('[1 image] describe this') from list content for logging, spinner
previews, and trajectory writes. Fixes AttributeError when list
user_message hit user_message[:80] + '...' / .replace().
- _chat_content_to_responses_parts(): module-level helper that converts
chat-style multimodal content to Responses 'input_text'/'input_image'
parts. Used in _chat_messages_to_responses_input for Codex routing.
- _preflight_codex_input_items() now validates and passes through list
content parts for user/assistant messages instead of stringifying.
- tests/gateway/test_api_server_multimodal.py (new, 38 tests)
- Unit coverage for _normalize_multimodal_content, including both part
formats, data URL gating, and all reject paths.
- Real aiohttp HTTP integration on /v1/chat/completions and /v1/responses
verifying multimodal payloads reach _run_agent intact.
- 400 coverage for file / input_file / non-image data URL.
- tests/run_agent/test_run_agent_multimodal_prologue.py (new)
- Regression coverage for the prologue no-crash contract.
- _chat_content_to_responses_parts round-trip coverage.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/api-server.md
- Inline image examples for both endpoints.
- Updated Limitations: files still unsupported, images now supported.
Validated live against openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4.6:
POST /v1/chat/completions → 200, vision-accurate description
POST /v1/responses → 200, same image, clean output_text
POST /v1/chat/completions [file] → 400 unsupported_content_type
POST /v1/responses [input_file] → 400 unsupported_content_type
POST /v1/responses [non-image data URL] → 400 unsupported_content_type

Closes#8933 more fully, extending the per-tool transform_terminal_output
hook from #12929 to a generic seam that fires after every tool dispatch.
Plugins can rewrite any tool's result string (normalize formats, redact
fields, summarize verbose output) without wrapping individual tools.
Changes
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: add "transform_tool_result" to VALID_HOOKS
- model_tools.py: invoke the hook in handle_function_call after
post_tool_call (which remains observational); first valid str return
replaces the result; fail-open
- tests/test_transform_tool_result_hook.py: 9 new tests covering no-op,
None return, non-string return, first-match wins, kwargs, hook
exception fallback, post_tool_call observation invariant, ordering
vs post_tool_call, and an end-to-end real-plugin integration
- tests/hermes_cli/test_plugins.py: assert new hook in VALID_HOOKS
- tests/test_model_tools.py: extend the hook-call-sequence assertion
to include the new hook
Design
- transform_tool_result runs AFTER post_tool_call so observers always
see the original (untransformed) result. This keeps post_tool_call's
observational contract.
- transform_terminal_output (from #12929) still runs earlier, inside
terminal_tool, so plugins can canonicalize BEFORE the 50k truncation
drops middle content. Both hooks coexist; they target different layers.
SessionStore.prune_old_entries was calling
self._has_active_processes_fn(entry.session_id) but the callback wired
up in gateway/run.py is process_registry.has_active_for_session, which
compares against session_key, not session_id. Every other caller in
session.py (_is_session_expired, _should_reset) already passes
session_key, so prune was the only outlier — and because session_id and
session_key live in different namespaces, the guard never fired.
Result in production: sessions with live background processes (queued
cron output, detached agents, long-running Bash) were pruned out of
_entries despite the docstring promising they'd be preserved. When the
process finished and tried to deliver output, the session_key to
session_id mapping was gone and the work was effectively orphaned.
Also update the existing test_prune_skips_entries_with_active_processes,
which was checking the wrong interface (its mock callback took session_id
so it agreed with the buggy implementation). The test now uses a
session_key-based mock, matching the production callback's real contract,
and a new regression guard test pins the behaviour.
Swallowed exceptions inside the prune loop now log at debug level instead
of silently disappearing.
Previously, /steer text was only injected after an entire tool batch
completed (_execute_tool_calls_sequential/concurrent returned). If the
batch had a long-running tool (delegate_task, terminal build), the
steer waited for ALL tools to finish before landing — functionally
identical to /queue from the user's perspective.
Now _apply_pending_steer_to_tool_results() is called after EACH
individual tool result is appended to messages, in both the sequential
and concurrent paths. A steer arriving during Tool 1 lands in Tool 1's
result before Tool 2 starts executing.
Also handles leftover steers in the gateway: if a steer arrives during
the final API call (no tool batch to drain into), it's now delivered as
the next user turn instead of being silently dropped.
Fixes user report from Utku.
After a conversation gets compressed, run_agent's _compress_context ends
the parent session and creates a continuation child with the same logical
conversation. Every list affordance in the codebase (list_sessions_rich
with its default include_children=False, plus the CLI/TUI/gateway/ACP
surfaces on top of it) hid those children, and resume-by-ID on the old
root landed on a dead parent with no messages.
Fix: lineage-aware projection on the read path.
- hermes_state.py::get_compression_tip(session_id) — walk the chain
forward using parent.end_reason='compression' AND
child.started_at >= parent.ended_at. The timing guard separates
compression continuations from delegate subagents (which were created
while the parent was still live) without needing a schema migration.
- hermes_state.py::list_sessions_rich — new project_compression_tips
flag (default True). For each compressed root in the result, replace
surfaced fields (id, ended_at, end_reason, message_count,
tool_call_count, title, last_active, preview, model, system_prompt)
with the tip's values. Preserve the root's started_at so chronological
ordering stays stable. Projected rows carry _lineage_root_id for
downstream consumers. Pass False to get raw roots (admin/debug).
- hermes_cli/main.py::_resolve_session_by_name_or_id — project forward
after ID/title resolution, so users who remember an old root ID (from
notes, or from exit summaries produced before the sibling Bug 1 fix)
land on the live tip.
All downstream callers of list_sessions_rich benefit automatically:
- cli.py _list_recent_sessions (/resume, show_history affordance)
- hermes_cli/main.py sessions list / sessions browse
- tui_gateway session.list picker
- gateway/run.py /resume titled session listing
- tools/session_search_tool.py
- acp_adapter/session.py
Tests: 7 new in TestCompressionChainProjection covering full-chain walks,
delegate-child exclusion, tip surfacing with lineage tracking, raw-root
mode, chronological ordering, and broken-chain graceful fallback.
Verified live: ran a real _compress_context on a live Gemini-backed
session, confirmed the DB split, then verified
- db.list_sessions_rich surfaces tip with _lineage_root_id set
- hermes sessions list shows the tip, not the ended parent
- _resolve_session_by_name_or_id(old_root_id) -> tip_id
- _resolve_last_session -> tip_id
Addresses #10373.
On macOS, Unix domain socket paths are capped at 104 bytes (sun_path).
SSH appends a 16-byte random suffix to the ControlPath when operating
in ControlMaster mode. With an IPv6 host embedded literally in the
filename and a deeply-nested macOS $TMPDIR like
/var/folders/XX/YYYYYYYYYYYY/T/, the full path reliably exceeds the
limit — every terminal/file-op tool call then fails immediately with
``unix_listener: path "…" too long for Unix domain socket``.
Swap the ``user@host:port.sock`` filename for a sha256-derived 16-char
hex digest. The digest is deterministic for a given (user, host, port)
triple, so ControlMaster reuse across reconnects is preserved, and the
full path fits comfortably under the limit even after SSH's random
suffix. Collision space is 2^64 — effectively unreachable for the
handful of concurrent connections any single Hermes process holds.
Regression tests cover: path length under realistic macOS $TMPDIR with
the IPv6 host from the issue report, determinism for reconnects, and
distinctness across different (user, host, port) triples.
Closes#11840
