Add a background _mcp_config_watcher() task to the gateway that polls
config.yaml every 30 seconds and auto-reloads MCP server connections
when the mcp_servers section changes.
This solves the problem where OAuth token refresh cron jobs update
Bearer tokens in config.yaml, but the running gateway keeps using
stale cached credentials until manually restarted.
The CLI already had this via _check_config_mcp_changes() — this ports
the same concept to the async gateway event loop.
Changes:
- GatewayRunner.__init__: initialize _mcp_config_mtime and
_mcp_config_servers state from current config
- GatewayRunner.start(): launch _mcp_config_watcher as background task
- GatewayRunner._mcp_config_watcher(): async background task that:
- Uses mtime fast-path to avoid unnecessary YAML reads
- Deep-compares mcp_servers dict to detect header changes
- Runs shutdown/discover in executor to avoid blocking event loop
- Sleeps in 1s increments for responsive shutdown
- 30s initial delay to let startup finish
Tests: 7 new tests covering no-change skip, header change detection,
non-MCP change skip, server add/remove, shutdown behavior, and
full integration test.
The TUI transition (4970705, f83e86d) replaced stacked per-tool history
lines with a single live-updating spinner widget. While the spinner
provides a nice live timer, it removed the scrollback history that
users relied on to see what the agent did during a session.
This restores stacked tool progress lines in 'all' and 'new' modes by
printing persistent scrollback lines via _cprint() when tools complete,
in addition to the existing live spinner display.
Behavior per mode:
- off: no scrollback lines, no spinner (unchanged)
- new: scrollback line on completion, skipping consecutive same-tool repeats
- all: scrollback line on every tool completion
- verbose: no scrollback (run_agent.py handles verbose output directly)
Implementation:
- Store function_args from tool.started events in _pending_tool_info
- On tool.completed, pop stored args and format via get_cute_tool_message()
- FIFO queue per function_name handles concurrent tool execution
- 'new' mode tracks _last_scrollback_tool for dedup
- State cleared at end of agent run
Reported by community user Mr.D — the stacked history provides
transparency into what the agent is doing, which builds trust.
Addresses user report from Discord about lost tool call visibility.
Rewrite the cronjob tool's 'deliver' parameter description to strongly
guide models toward omitting the parameter (which auto-detects origin
including thread/topic). The previous description listed all platform
names equally, inviting models to construct explicit targets like
'telegram:<chat_id>' which silently drops the thread_id.
New description:
- Leads with 'Omit this parameter' as the recommended path
- Explicitly warns that platform:chat_id without :thread_id loses topics
- Removes the long flat list of platform names that invited construction
Also adds diagnostic logging at two key points:
- _origin_from_env(): logs when thread_id is captured during job creation
- _deliver_result(): warns when origin has thread_id but delivery target
lost it; logs at debug when delivering to a specific thread
Helps diagnose user-reported issue where cron responses from Telegram
topics are delivered to the main chat instead of the originating topic.
On servers with broken or unreachable IPv6, Python's socket.getaddrinfo
returns AAAA records first. urllib/httpx/requests all try IPv6 connections
first and hang for the full TCP timeout before falling back to IPv4. This
affects web_extract, web_search, the OpenAI SDK, and all HTTP tools.
Adds network.force_ipv4 config option (default: false) that monkey-patches
socket.getaddrinfo to resolve as AF_INET when the caller didn't specify a
family. Falls back to full resolution if no A record exists, so pure-IPv6
hosts still work.
Applied early at all three entry points (CLI, gateway, cron scheduler)
before any HTTP clients are created.
Reported by user @29n — Chinese Ubuntu server with unreachable IPv6 causing
timeouts on lobste.rs and other IPv6-enabled sites while Google/GitHub
worked fine (IPv4-only resolution).
After compression, models (especially Kimi 2.5) would sometimes respond
to questions from the summary instead of the latest user message. This
happened ~30% of the time on Telegram.
Root cause: the summary's 'Next Steps' section read as active instructions,
and the SUMMARY_PREFIX didn't explicitly tell the model to ignore questions
in the summary. When the summary merged into the first tail message, there
was no clear separator between historical context and the actual user message.
Changes inspired by competitor analysis (Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex):
1. SUMMARY_PREFIX rewritten with explicit 'Do NOT answer questions from
this summary — respond ONLY to the latest user message AFTER it'
2. Summarizer preamble (shared by both prompts) adds:
- 'Do NOT respond to any questions' (from OpenCode's approach)
- 'Different assistant' framing (from Codex) to create psychological
distance between summary content and active conversation
3. New summary sections:
- '## Resolved Questions' — tracks already-answered questions with
their answers, preventing re-answering (from Claude Code's
'Pending user asks' pattern)
- '## Pending User Asks' — explicitly marks unanswered questions
- '## Remaining Work' replaces '## Next Steps' — passive framing
avoids reading as active instructions
4. merge-summary-into-tail path now inserts a clear separator:
'--- END OF CONTEXT SUMMARY — respond to the message below ---'
5. Iterative update prompt now instructs: 'Move answered questions to
Resolved Questions' to maintain the resolved/pending distinction
across multiple compactions.
The gateway startup path references RedactingFormatter without
importing it, causing a NameError crash when launched with a
verbosity flag (e.g. via launchd --replace).
Fixes#8044
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds an optional focus topic to /compress: `/compress database schema`
guides the summariser to preserve information related to the focus topic
(60-70% of summary budget) while compressing everything else more aggressively.
Inspired by Claude Code's /compact <focus>.
Changes:
- context_compressor.py: focus_topic parameter on _generate_summary() and
compress(); appends FOCUS TOPIC guidance block to the LLM prompt
- run_agent.py: focus_topic parameter on _compress_context(), passed through
to the compressor
- cli.py: _manual_compress() extracts focus topic from command string,
preserves existing manual_compression_feedback integration (no regression)
- gateway/run.py: _handle_compress_command() extracts focus from event args
and passes through — full gateway parity
- commands.py: args_hint="[focus topic]" on /compress CommandDef
Salvaged from PR #7459 (CLI /compress focus only — /context command deferred).
15 new tests across CLI, compressor, and gateway.
* feat: add `hermes backup` and `hermes import` commands
hermes backup — creates a zip of ~/.hermes/ (config, skills, sessions,
profiles, memories, skins, cron jobs, etc.) excluding the hermes-agent
codebase, __pycache__, and runtime PID files. Defaults to
~/hermes-backup-<timestamp>.zip, customizable with -o.
hermes import <zipfile> — restores from a backup zip, validating it
looks like a hermes backup before extracting. Handles .hermes/ prefix
stripping, path traversal protection, and confirmation prompts (skip
with --force).
29 tests covering exclusion rules, backup creation, import validation,
prefix detection, path traversal blocking, confirmation flow, and a
full round-trip test.
* test: improve backup/import coverage to 97%
Add 17 additional tests covering:
- _format_size helper (bytes through terabytes)
- Nonexistent hermes home error exit
- Output path is a directory (auto-names inside it)
- Output without .zip suffix (auto-appends)
- Empty hermes home (all files excluded)
- Permission errors during backup and import
- Output zip inside hermes root (skips itself)
- Not-a-zip file rejection
- EOFError and KeyboardInterrupt during confirmation
- 500+ file progress display
- Directory-only zip prefix detection
Remove dead code branch in _detect_prefix (unreachable guard).
* feat: auto-restore profile wrapper scripts on import
After extracting backup files, hermes import now scans profiles/ for
subdirectories with config.yaml or .env and recreates the ~/.local/bin
wrapper scripts so profile aliases (e.g. 'coder chat') work immediately.
Also prints guidance for re-installing gateway services per profile.
Handles edge cases:
- Skips profile dirs without config (not real profiles)
- Skips aliases that collide with existing commands
- Gracefully degrades if hermes_cli.profiles isn't available (fresh install)
- Shows PATH hint if ~/.local/bin isn't in PATH
3 new profile restoration tests (49 total).
Fixes#7952 — Matrix E2EE completely broken after mautrix migration.
- Replace MemoryCryptoStore + pickle/HMAC persistence with mautrix's
PgCryptoStore backed by SQLite via aiosqlite. Crypto state now
persists reliably across restarts without fragile serialization.
- Add handle_sync() call on initial sync response so to-device events
(queued Megolm key shares) are dispatched to OlmMachine instead of
being silently dropped.
- Add _verify_device_keys_on_server() after loading crypto state.
Detects missing keys (re-uploads), stale keys from migration
(attempts re-upload), and corrupted state (refuses E2EE).
- Add _CryptoStateStore adapter wrapping MemoryStateStore to satisfy
mautrix crypto's StateStore interface (is_encrypted,
get_encryption_info, find_shared_rooms).
- Remove redundant share_keys() call from sync loop — OlmMachine
already handles this via DEVICE_OTK_COUNT event handler.
- Fix datetime vs float TypeError in session.py suspend_recently_active()
that crashed gateway startup.
- Add aiosqlite and asyncpg to [matrix] extra in pyproject.toml.
- Update test mocks for PgCryptoStore/Database and add query_keys mock
for key verification. 174 tests pass.
- Add E2EE upgrade/migration docs to Matrix user guide.
* perf(ssh,modal): bulk file sync via tar pipe and tar/base64 archive
SSH: symlink-staging + tar -ch piped over SSH in a single TCP stream.
Eliminates per-file scp round-trips. Handles timeout (kills both
processes), SSH Popen failure (kills tar), and tar create failure.
Modal: in-memory gzipped tar archive, base64-encoded, decoded+extracted
in one exec call. Checks exit code and raises on failure.
Both backends use shared helpers extracted into file_sync.py:
- quoted_mkdir_command() — mirrors existing quoted_rm_command()
- unique_parent_dirs() — deduplicates parent dirs from file pairs
Migrates _ensure_remote_dirs to use the new helpers.
28 new tests (21 SSH + 7 Modal), all passing.
Closes#7465Closes#7467
* fix(modal): pipe stdin to avoid ARG_MAX, clean up review findings
- Modal bulk upload: stream base64 payload through proc.stdin in 1MB
chunks instead of embedding in command string (Modal SDK enforces
64KB ARG_MAX_BYTES — typical payloads are ~4.3MB)
- Modal single-file upload: same stdin fix, add exit code checking
- Remove what-narrating comments in ssh.py and modal.py (keep WHY
comments: symlink staging rationale, SIGPIPE, deadlock avoidance)
- Remove unnecessary `sandbox = self._sandbox` alias in modal bulk
- Daytona: use shared helpers (unique_parent_dirs, quoted_mkdir_command)
instead of inlined duplicates

* feat: component-separated logging with session context and filtering
Phase 1 — Gateway log isolation:
- gateway.log now only receives records from gateway.* loggers
(platform adapters, session management, slash commands, delivery)
- agent.log remains the catch-all (all components)
- errors.log remains WARNING+ catch-all
- Moved gateway.log handler creation from gateway/run.py into
hermes_logging.setup_logging(mode='gateway') with _ComponentFilter
Phase 2 — Session ID injection:
- Added set_session_context(session_id) / clear_session_context() API
using threading.local() for per-thread session tracking
- _SessionFilter enriches every log record with session_tag attribute
- Log format: '2026-04-11 10:23:45 INFO [session_id] logger.name: msg'
- Session context set at start of run_conversation() in run_agent.py
- Thread-isolated: gateway conversations on different threads don't leak
Phase 3 — Component filtering in hermes logs:
- Added --component flag: hermes logs --component gateway|agent|tools|cli|cron
- COMPONENT_PREFIXES maps component names to logger name prefixes
- Works with all existing filters (--level, --session, --since, -f)
- Logger name extraction handles both old and new log formats
Files changed:
- hermes_logging.py: _SessionFilter, _ComponentFilter, COMPONENT_PREFIXES,
set/clear_session_context(), gateway.log creation in setup_logging()
- gateway/run.py: removed redundant gateway.log handler (now in hermes_logging)
- run_agent.py: set_session_context() at start of run_conversation()
- hermes_cli/logs.py: --component filter, logger name extraction
- hermes_cli/main.py: --component argument on logs subparser
Addresses community request for component-separated, filterable logging.
Zero changes to existing logger names — __name__ already provides hierarchy.
* fix: use LogRecord factory instead of per-handler _SessionFilter
The _SessionFilter approach required attaching a filter to every handler
we create. Any handler created outside our _add_rotating_handler (like
the gateway stderr handler, or third-party handlers) would crash with
KeyError: 'session_tag' if it used our format string.
Replace with logging.setLogRecordFactory() which injects session_tag
into every LogRecord at creation time — process-global, zero per-handler
wiring needed. The factory is installed at import time (before
setup_logging) so session_tag is available from the moment hermes_logging
is imported.
- Idempotent: marker attribute prevents double-wrapping on module reload
- Chains with existing factory: won't break third-party record factories
- Removes _SessionFilter from _add_rotating_handler and setup_verbose_logging
- Adds tests: record factory injection, idempotency, arbitrary handler compat
Add display.platforms section to config.yaml for per-platform overrides of
display settings (tool_progress, show_reasoning, streaming, tool_preview_length).
Each platform gets sensible built-in defaults based on capability tier:
- High (telegram, discord): tool_progress=all, streaming follows global
- Medium (slack, mattermost, matrix, feishu): tool_progress=new
- Low (signal, whatsapp, bluebubbles, wecom, etc.): tool_progress=off, streaming=false
- Minimal (email, sms, webhook, homeassistant): tool_progress=off, streaming=false
Example config:
display:
platforms:
telegram:
tool_progress: all
show_reasoning: true
slack:
tool_progress: off
Resolution order: platform override > global setting > built-in platform default.
Changes:
- New gateway/display_config.py: resolver module with tier-based platform defaults
- gateway/run.py: tool_progress, tool_preview_length, streaming, show_reasoning
all resolve per-platform via the new resolver
- /verbose command: now cycles tool_progress per-platform (saves to
display.platforms.<platform>.tool_progress instead of global)
- /reasoning show|hide: now saves show_reasoning per-platform
- Config version 15 -> 16: migrates tool_progress_overrides into display.platforms
- Backward compat: legacy tool_progress_overrides still read as fallback
- 27 new tests for resolver, normalization, migration, backward compat
- Updated verbose command tests for per-platform behavior
Addresses community request for per-channel verbosity control (Guillaume Meyer,
Nathan Danielsen) — high verbosity on backchannel Telegram, low on customer-facing
Slack, none on email.
The check_interval parameter on terminal_tool sent periodic output
updates to the gateway chat, but these were display-only — the agent
couldn't see or act on them. This added schema bloat and introduced
a bug where notify_on_complete=True was silently dropped when
check_interval was also set (the not-check_interval guard skipped
fast-watcher registration, and the check_interval watcher dict
was missing the notify_on_complete key).
Removing check_interval entirely:
- Eliminates the notify_on_complete interaction bug
- Reduces tool schema size (one fewer parameter for the model)
- Simplifies the watcher registration path
- notify_on_complete (agent wake-on-completion) still works
- watch_patterns (output alerting) still works
- process(action='poll') covers manual status checking
Closes#7947 (root cause eliminated rather than patched).
When /model is called with no arguments in the interactive CLI, open a
two-step prompt_toolkit modal instead of the previous text-only listing:
1. Provider selection — curses_single_select with all authenticated providers
2. Model selection — live API fetch with curated fallback
Also fixes:
- OpenAI Codex model normalization (openai/gpt-5.4 → gpt-5.4)
- Dedicated Codex validation path using provider_model_ids()
Preserves curses_radiolist (used by setup, tools, plugins) alongside the
new curses_single_select. Retains tool elapsed timer in spinner.
Cherry-picked from PR #7438 by MestreY0d4-Uninter.
The _get_budget_warning() method already returned None unconditionally —
the entire budget warning system was disabled. Remove all dead code:
- _BUDGET_WARNING_RE regex
- _strip_budget_warnings_from_history() function and its call site
- Both injection blocks (concurrent + sequential tool execution)
- _get_budget_warning() method
- 7 tests for the removed functions
The budget exhaustion grace call system (_budget_exhausted_injected,
_budget_grace_call) is a separate recovery mechanism and is preserved.
Normalize api_messages before each API call for consistent prefix
matching across turns:
1. Strip leading/trailing whitespace from system prompt parts
2. Strip leading/trailing whitespace from message content strings
3. Normalize tool-call arguments to compact sorted JSON
This enables KV cache reuse on local inference servers (llama.cpp,
vLLM, Ollama) and improves cache hit rates for cloud providers.
All normalization operates on the api_messages copy — the original
conversation history in messages is never mutated. Tool-call JSON
normalization creates new dicts via spread to avoid the shallow-copy
mutation bug in the original PR.
Salvaged from PR #7875 by @waxinz with mutation fix.
* feat(nix): container-aware CLI — auto-route all subcommands into managed container
When container.enable = true, the host `hermes` CLI transparently execs
every subcommand into the managed Docker/Podman container. A symlink
bridge (~/.hermes -> /var/lib/hermes/.hermes) unifies state between host
and container so sessions, config, and memories are shared.
CLI changes:
- Global routing before subcommand dispatch (all commands forwarded)
- docker exec with -u exec_user, env passthrough (TERM, COLORTERM,
LANG, LC_ALL), TTY-aware flags
- Retry with spinner on failure (TTY: 5s, non-TTY: 10s silent)
- Hard fail instead of silent fallback
- HERMES_DEV=1 env var bypasses routing for development
- No routing messages (invisible to user)
NixOS module changes:
- container.hostUsers option: lists users who get ~/.hermes symlink
and automatic hermes group membership
- Activation script creates symlink bridge (with backup of existing
~/.hermes dirs), writes exec_user to .container-mode
- Cleanup on disable: removes symlinks + .container-mode + stops service
- Warning when hostUsers set without addToSystemPackages
* fix: address review — reuse sudo var, add chown -h on symlink update
- hermes_cli/main.py: reuse the existing `sudo` variable instead of
redundant `shutil.which("sudo")` call that could return None
- nix/nixosModules.nix: add missing `chown -h` when updating an
existing symlink target so ownership stays consistent with the
fresh-create and backup-replace branches
* fix: address remaining review items from cursor bugbot
- hermes_cli/main.py: move container routing BEFORE parse_args() so
--help, unrecognised flags, and all subcommands are forwarded
transparently into the container instead of being intercepted by
argparse on the host (high severity)
- nix/nixosModules.nix: resolve home dirs via
config.users.users.${user}.home instead of hardcoding /home/${user},
supporting users with custom home directories (medium severity)
- nix/nixosModules.nix: gate hostUsers group membership on
container.enable so setting hostUsers without container mode doesn't
silently add users to the hermes group (low severity)
* fix: simplify container routing — execvp, no retries, let it crash
- Replace subprocess.run retry loop with os.execvp (no idle parent process)
- Extract _probe_container helper for sudo detection with 15s timeout
- Narrow exception handling: FileNotFoundError only in get_container_exec_info,
catch TimeoutExpired specifically, remove silent except Exception: pass
- Collapse needs_sudo + sudo into single sudo_path variable
- Simplify NixOS symlink creation from 4 branches to 2
- Gate NixOS sudoers hint with "On NixOS:" prefix
- Full test rewrite: 18 tests covering execvp, sudo probe, timeout, permissions

Switch estimate_tokens_rough(), estimate_messages_tokens_rough(), and
estimate_request_tokens_rough() from floor division (len // 4) to
ceiling division ((len + 3) // 4). Short texts (1-3 chars) previously
estimated as 0 tokens, causing the compressor and pre-flight checks to
systematically undercount when many short tool results are present.
Also replaced the inline duplicate formula in run_conversation()
(total_chars // 4) with a call to the shared
estimate_messages_tokens_rough() function.
Updated 4 tests that hardcoded floor-division expected values.
Related: issue #6217, PR #6629
Deduplicate todo items by ID before writing to the store, keeping the
last occurrence. Prevents ghost entries when the model sends duplicate

Add display.interim_assistant_messages config (enabled by default) that
forwards completed assistant commentary between tool calls to the user
as separate chat messages. Models already emit useful status text like
'I'll inspect the repo first.' — this surfaces it on Telegram, Discord,
and other messaging platforms instead of swallowing it.
Independent from tool_progress and gateway streaming. Disabled for
webhooks. Uses GatewayStreamConsumer when available, falls back to
direct adapter send. Tracks response_previewed to prevent double-delivery
when interim message matches the final response.
Also fixes: cursor not stripped from fallback prefix in stream consumer
(affected continuation calculation on no-edit platforms like Signal).
Cherry-picked from PR #7885 by asheriif, default changed to enabled.
Fixes#5016
- Fix auto list (was only gpt, actually includes codex/gemini/gemma/grok)
- Document the three guidance layers (general, OpenAI-specific, Google-specific)
- Add 'When to turn it on' section for users on non-default models
- Clarify that substring matching is case-insensitive
Three root causes of the 'agent stops mid-task' gateway bug:
1. Compression threshold floor (64K tokens minimum)
- The 50% threshold on a 100K-context model fired at 50K tokens,
causing premature compression that made models lose track of
multi-step plans. Now threshold_tokens = max(50% * context, 64K).
- Models with <64K context are rejected at startup with a clear error.
2. Budget warning removal — grace call instead
- Removed the 70%/90% iteration budget warnings entirely. These
injected '[BUDGET WARNING: Provide your final response NOW]' into
tool results, causing models to abandon complex tasks prematurely.
- Now: no warnings during normal execution. When the budget is
actually exhausted (90/90), inject a user message asking the model
to summarise, allow one grace API call, and only then fall back
to _handle_max_iterations.
3. Activity touches during long terminal execution
- _wait_for_process polls every 0.2s but never reported activity.
The gateway's inactivity timeout (default 1800s) would fire during
long-running commands that appeared 'idle.'
- Now: thread-local activity callback fires every 10s during the
poll loop, keeping the gateway's activity tracker alive.
- Agent wires _touch_activity into the callback before each tool call.
Also: docs update noting 64K minimum context requirement.
Closes#7915 (root cause was agent-loop termination, not Weixin delivery limits).
Replace the verbose_logging-gated logging.exception() with an
unconditional logger.debug(exc_info=True). The full traceback now
always lands in agent.log when debug logging is enabled, without
requiring the verbose_logging flag or spamming the console.
Previously, production errors in the 700-line response processing
block (normalization, tool dispatch, final response handling) were
logged as one-line messages with the traceback hidden behind
verbose_logging — making post-mortem debugging difficult.
Add the missing 'Adding a Platform Adapter' developer guide — a
comprehensive step-by-step checklist covering all 20+ integration
points (enum, adapter, config, runner, CLI, tools, toolsets, cron,
webhooks, tests, and docs). Includes common patterns for long-poll,
callback/webhook, and token-lock adapters with reference implementations.
Also adds full docs coverage for the WeCom Callback platform:
- New docs page: user-guide/messaging/wecom-callback.md
- Environment variables reference (9 WECOM_CALLBACK_* vars)
- Toolsets reference (hermes-wecom-callback)
- Messaging index (comparison table, architecture diagram, toolsets,
security, next-steps links)
- Integrations index listing
- Sidebar entries for both new pages
Complete the contextvars migration by adding HERMES_SESSION_KEY to the
unified _VAR_MAP in session_context.py. Without this, concurrent gateway
handlers race on os.environ["HERMES_SESSION_KEY"].
- Add _SESSION_KEY ContextVar to _VAR_MAP, set_session_vars(), clear_session_vars()
- Wire session_key through _set_session_env() from SessionContext
- Replace os.getenv fallback in tools/approval.py with get_session_env()
(function-level import to avoid cross-layer coupling)
- Keep os.environ set as CLI/cron fallback
Cherry-picked from PR #7878 by 0xbyt4.
- Add --env KEY=VALUE for passing environment variables to stdio MCP servers
- Add --preset for known MCP server templates (empty for now, extensible)
- Validate env var names, reject --env for HTTP servers
- Explicit --command/--url overrides preset defaults
- Remove unused getpass import
Based on PR #7936 by @syaor4n (stitch preset removed, generic infra kept).
All retry counters (_invalid_tool_retries, _invalid_json_retries,
_empty_content_retries, _incomplete_scratchpad_retries,
_codex_incomplete_retries) are initialized to 0 at the top of
run_conversation() (lines 7566-7570). The hasattr guards added before
the reset block existed are now dead code — the attributes always exist.
Removed 7 redundant hasattr checks (5 original targets + 2 bonus for
_codex_incomplete_retries found during cleanup).
When _try_activate_fallback() switches to a new provider, retry_count was
reset to 0 but compression_attempts and primary_recovery_attempted were
not. This meant a fallback provider that hit context overflow would only
get the leftover compression budget from the failed primary provider,
and transport recovery was blocked because the flag was still True from
the old provider's attempt.
Reset both counters at all 5 fallback activation sites inside the retry
loop so each fallback provider gets a fresh compression budget (3 attempts)
and its own transport recovery opportunity.
Add a second WeCom integration mode for regular enterprise self-built
applications. Unlike the existing bot/websocket adapter (wecom.py),
this handles WeCom's standard callback flow: WeCom POSTs encrypted XML
to an HTTP endpoint, the adapter decrypts, queues for the agent, and
immediately acknowledges. The agent's reply is delivered proactively
via the message/send API.
Key design choice: always acknowledge immediately and use proactive
send — agent sessions take 3-30 minutes, so the 5-second inline reply
window is never useful. The original PR's Future/pending-reply
machinery was removed in favour of this simpler architecture.
Features:
- AES-CBC encrypt/decrypt (BizMsgCrypt-compatible)
- Multi-app routing scoped by corp_id:user_id
- Legacy bare user_id fallback for backward compat
- Access-token management with auto-refresh
- WECOM_CALLBACK_* env var overrides
- Port-in-use pre-check before binding
- Health endpoint at /health
Salvaged from PR #7774 by @chqchshj. Simplified by removing the
inline reply Future system and fixing: secrets.choice for nonce
generation, immediate plain-text acknowledgment (not encrypted XML
containing 'success'), and initial token refresh error handling.
Adds _normalize_path() helper that calls expanduser().resolve() to
properly handle tilde paths (e.g. ~/.hermes, ~/.config). Previously
Path.resolve() alone treated ~ as a literal directory name, producing
invalid paths like /root/~/.hermes.
Also improves _run_git() error handling to distinguish missing working
directories from missing git executable, and adds pre-flight directory
validation.

Fixes#7807
When 'hermes claw migrate' copies Telegram/Discord/Slack bot tokens from
OpenClaw while the Hermes gateway is already polling with those same tokens,
the platforms conflict (e.g. Telegram 409). Add a pre-flight check that reads
gateway_state.json via get_running_pid() + read_runtime_status(), warns the
user, and lets them cancel or continue.
Also improve the Telegram polling conflict error message to mention OpenClaw
as a common cause and give the 'hermes start' restart command.
Refs #7907
Cron jobs run from whatever directory the scheduler process lives in
(typically the hermes-agent install dir), so without this flag the agent
picks up AGENTS.md, SOUL.md, or .cursorrules from that cwd — injecting
irrelevant project context into the cron job's system prompt.
batch_runner.py and gateway boot_md already pass skip_context_files=True
for the same reason. This aligns cron with the established pattern for
autonomous/headless agent runs.
* fix(tools): neutralize shell injection in _write_to_sandbox via path quoting
_write_to_sandbox interpolated storage_dir and remote_path directly into
a shell command passed to env.execute(). Paths containing shell
metacharacters (spaces, semicolons, $(), backticks) could trigger
arbitrary command execution inside the sandbox.
Fix: wrap both paths with shlex.quote(). Clean paths (alphanumeric +
slashes/hyphens/dots) are left unmodified by shlex.quote, so existing
behavior is unchanged. Paths with unsafe characters get single-quoted.
Tests added for spaces, $(command) substitution, and semicolon injection.
* fix: is_local_endpoint misses Docker/Podman DNS names
host.docker.internal, host.containers.internal, gateway.docker.internal,
and host.lima.internal are well-known DNS names that container runtimes
use to resolve the host machine. Users running Ollama on the host with
the agent in Docker/Podman hit the default 120s stream timeout instead
of the bumped 1800s because these hostnames weren't recognized as local.
Add _CONTAINER_LOCAL_SUFFIXES tuple and suffix check in
is_local_endpoint(). Tests cover all three runtime families plus a
negative case for domains that merely contain the suffix as a substring.
Wire Signal, Email, SMS (Twilio), DingTalk, Feishu/Lark, and WeCom into
the hermes setup gateway interactive wizard. These platforms all had
working adapters and _PLATFORMS entries in gateway.py but were invisible
in the setup checklist — users had to manually edit .env to configure them.
Changes:
- gateway.py: Add _setup_email/sms/dingtalk/feishu/wecom functions
delegating to _setup_standard_platform (Signal already had a custom one)
- setup.py: Add wrapper functions for all 6 new platforms
- setup.py: Add all 6 to _GATEWAY_PLATFORMS checklist registry
- setup.py: Add missing env vars to any_messaging check
- setup.py: Add all missing platforms to _get_section_config_summary
(was also missing Matrix, Mattermost, Weixin, Webhooks)
- docs: Add FEISHU_ALLOWED_USERS and WECOM_ALLOWED_USERS examples
Incorporates and extends the work from PR #7918 by bugmaker2.
- add all_profiles=False to find_gateway_pids() and
kill_gateway_processes() so hermes update and gateway stop --all
can still discover processes across all profiles
- narrow bare 'except Exception' to (OSError, subprocess.TimeoutExpired)
- update test mocks to match new signatures
Adds two tests verifying that duplicate reasoning item IDs across
multi-turn Codex Responses conversations are correctly deduplicated
in both _chat_messages_to_responses_input() and
_preflight_codex_input_items().
When replaying codex_reasoning_items from previous turns,
duplicate item IDs (rs_*) could appear in the input array,
causing HTTP 400 "Duplicate item found" errors from the
OpenAI Responses API.
Add seen_item_ids tracking in both _chat_messages_to_responses_input()
and _preflight_codex_input_items() to skip already-added reasoning
items by their ID.

In _run_agent(), the pending message handler references 'event' which
is not defined in that scope — it only exists in the caller. This
causes a NameError when sending the first response before processing a
queued follow-up message.
Replace getattr(event, 'metadata', None) with the established pattern
using source.thread_id, consistent with lines 2625, 2810, 3678, 4410, 4566
in the same file.
_write_to_sandbox interpolated storage_dir and remote_path directly into
a shell command passed to env.execute(). Paths containing shell
metacharacters (spaces, semicolons, $(), backticks) could trigger
arbitrary command execution inside the sandbox.
Fix: wrap both paths with shlex.quote(). Clean paths (alphanumeric +
slashes/hyphens/dots) are left unmodified by shlex.quote, so existing
behavior is unchanged. Paths with unsafe characters get single-quoted.
Tests added for spaces, $(command) substitution, and semicolon injection.
This commit addresses a security vulnerability where unsanitized user inputs for commit_hash and file_path were passed directly to git commands in CheckpointManager.restore() and diff(). It validates commit hashes to be strictly hexadecimal characters without leading dashes (preventing flag injection like '--patch') and enforces file paths to stay within the working directory via root resolution. Regression tests test_restore_rejects_argument_injection, test_restore_rejects_invalid_hex_chars, and test_restore_rejects_path_traversal were added.
The cherry-picked fix from PR #7916 placed model propagation after
the credential pool early-return in _resolve_named_custom_runtime(),
making it dead code when a pool is active (which happens whenever
custom_providers has an api_key that auto-seeds the pool).
- Inject model into pool_result before returning
- Add 5 regression tests covering direct path, pool path, empty
model, and absent model scenarios
- Add 'model' to _VALID_CUSTOM_PROVIDER_FIELDS for config validation
Fixes#7828
When a custom_providers entry carries a `model` field, that value was
silently dropped by `_get_named_custom_provider` and
`_resolve_named_custom_runtime`. Callers received a runtime dict with
`base_url`, `api_key`, and `api_mode` — but no `model`.
As a result, `hermes chat --model <provider-name>` sent the *provider
name* (e.g. "my-dashscope-provider") as the model string to the API
instead of the configured model (e.g. "qwen3.6-plus"), producing:
Error code: 400 - {'error': {'message': 'Model Not Exist'}}
Setting the provider as the *default* model in config.yaml worked
because that path writes `model.default` and the agent reads it back
directly, bypassing the broken runtime resolution path.
Changes:
1. hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py — _get_named_custom_provider()
Reads `entry.get("model")` and includes it in the result dict so
the value is available to callers.
2. hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py — _resolve_named_custom_runtime()
Propagates `custom_provider["model"]` into the returned runtime dict.
3. cli.py — _ensure_runtime_credentials()
After resolving runtime, if `runtime["model"]` is set, assign it to
`self.model` so the AIAgent is initialised with the correct model
name rather than the provider name the user typed on the CLI.

The startup guard tests called connect() which bound a real aiohttp
server on port 8080 — flaky in any environment where the port is
in use. Mock AppRunner, TCPSite, and ClientSession instead.
