Extends PR #15171 to also cover the server-side cancellation path (aiohttp
shutdown, request-level timeout) — previously only ConnectionResetError
triggered the incomplete-snapshot write, so cancellations left the store
stuck at the in_progress snapshot written on response.created.
Factors the incomplete-snapshot build into a _persist_incomplete_if_needed()
helper called from both the ConnectionResetError and CancelledError
branches; the CancelledError handler re-raises so cooperative cancellation
semantics are preserved.
Adds two regression tests that drive _write_sse_responses directly (the
TestClient disconnect path races the server handler, which makes the
end-to-end assertion flaky).
The /v1/responses endpoint generated a new UUID session_id for every
request, even when previous_response_id was provided. This caused each
turn of a multi-turn conversation to appear as a separate session on the
web dashboard, despite the conversation history being correctly chained.
Fix: store session_id alongside the response in the ResponseStore, and
reuse it when a subsequent request chains via previous_response_id.
Applies to both the non-streaming /v1/responses path and the streaming
SSE path. The /v1/runs endpoint also gains session continuity from
stored responses (explicit body.session_id still takes priority).
Adds test verifying session_id is preserved across chained requests.
The streaming path emits output as content-part arrays for Open WebUI
compatibility, but the batch (non-streaming) Responses API path must
return output as a plain string per the OpenAI Responses API spec.
Reverts the _extract_output_items change from the cherry-picked commits
while preserving the streaming path's array format.
- TestHealthDetailedEndpoint: 3 tests for the new API server endpoint
(returns runtime data, handles missing status, no auth required)
- TestProbeGatewayHealth: 5 tests for _probe_gateway_health()
(URL normalization, successful/failed probes, fallback chain)
- TestStatusRemoteGateway: 4 tests for /api/status remote fallback
(remote probe triggers, skipped when local PID found, null PID handling)
Tool progress markers (e.g. `⏰ list`) were injected directly into
SSE delta.content chunks. OpenAI-compatible frontends (Open WebUI,
LobeChat, etc.) store delta.content verbatim as the assistant message
and send it back on subsequent requests. After enough turns, the model
learns to emit these markers as plain text instead of issuing real tool
calls — silently hallucinating tool results without ever running them.
Fix: Send tool progress as a custom `event: hermes.tool.progress` SSE
event instead of mixing it into delta.content. Per the SSE spec, clients
that don't understand a custom event type silently ignore it, so this is
backward-compatible. Frontends that want to render progress indicators
can listen for the custom event without persisting it to conversation
history.
The /v1/runs endpoint already uses structured events — this aligns the
/v1/chat/completions streaming path with the same principle.
Closes#6972
The API server's _run_agent() was not passing task_id to
run_conversation(), causing a fresh random UUID per request. This meant
every Open WebUI message spun up a new Docker container and tore it down
afterward — making persistent filesystem state impossible.
Two fixes:
1. Pass task_id="default" so all API server conversations share the same
Docker container (matching the design intent: one configured Docker
environment, always the same container).
2. Derive a stable session_id from the system prompt + first user message
hash instead of uuid4(). This stops hermes sessions list from being
polluted with single-message throwaway sessions.
Fixes#3438.
* feat: API server model name derived from profile name
For multi-user setups (e.g. OpenWebUI), each profile's API server now
advertises a distinct model name on /v1/models:
- Profile 'lucas' -> model ID 'lucas'
- Profile 'admin' -> model ID 'admin'
- Default profile -> 'hermes-agent' (unchanged)
Explicit override via API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME env var or
platforms.api_server.model_name config for custom names.
Resolves friction where OpenWebUI couldn't distinguish multiple
hermes-agent connections all advertising the same model name.
* docs: multi-user setup with profiles for API server + Open WebUI
- api-server.md: added Multi-User Setup section, API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME
to config table, updated /v1/models description
- open-webui.md: added Multi-User Setup with Profiles section with
step-by-step guide, updated model name references
- environment-variables.md: added API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME entry
Follow-up to sroecker's PR #5918 — test mocks were using the old 3-arg
callback signature (name, preview, args) instead of the new
(event_type, name, preview, args, **kwargs).
Reuse a single SessionDB across requests by caching on self._session_db
with lazy initialization. Avoids creating a new SQLite connection per
request when X-Hermes-Session-Id is used. Updated tests to set
adapter._session_db directly instead of patching the constructor.
Allow callers to pass X-Hermes-Session-Id in request headers to continue
an existing conversation. When provided, history is loaded from SessionDB
instead of the request body, and the session_id is echoed in the response
header. Without the header, existing behavior is preserved (new uuid per
request).
This enables web UI clients to maintain thread continuity without modifying
any session state themselves — the same mechanism the gateway uses for IM
platforms (Telegram, Discord, etc.).
Wire the existing tool_progress_callback through the API server's
streaming handler so Open WebUI users see what tool is running.
Uses the existing 3-arg callback signature (name, preview, args)
that fires at tool start — no changes to run_agent.py needed.
Progress appears as inline markdown in the SSE content stream.
Inspired by PR #4032 by sroecker, reimplemented to avoid breaking
the callback signature used by CLI and gateway consumers.
Add X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff and Referrer-Policy: no-referrer
to all API server responses via a new security_headers_middleware.

* fix(run_agent): ensure _fire_first_delta() is called for tool generation events
Added calls to _fire_first_delta() in the AIAgent class to improve the handling of tool generation events, ensuring timely notifications during the processing of function calls and tool usage.
* fix(run_agent): improve timeout handling for chat completions
Enhanced the timeout configuration for chat completions in the AIAgent class by introducing customizable connection, read, and write timeouts using environment variables. This ensures more robust handling of API requests during streaming operations.
* fix(run_agent): reduce default stream read timeout for chat completions
Updated the default stream read timeout from 120 seconds to 60 seconds in the AIAgent class, enhancing the timeout configuration for chat completions. This change aims to improve responsiveness during streaming operations.
* fix(run_agent): enhance streaming error handling and retry logic
Improved the error handling and retry mechanism for streaming requests in the AIAgent class. Introduced a configurable maximum number of stream retries and refined the handling of transient network errors, allowing for retries with fresh connections. Non-transient errors now trigger a fallback to non-streaming only when appropriate, ensuring better resilience during API interactions.
* fix(api_server): streaming breaks when agent makes tool calls
The agent fires stream_delta_callback(None) to signal the CLI display
to close its response box before tool execution begins. The API server's
_on_delta callback was forwarding this None directly into the SSE queue,
where the SSE writer treats it as end-of-stream and terminates the HTTP
response prematurely.
After tool calls complete, the agent streams the final answer through
the same callback, but the SSE response was already closed — so Open
WebUI (and similar frontends) never received the actual answer.
Fix: filter out None in _on_delta so the SSE stream stays open. The SSE
loop already detects completion via agent_task.done(), which handles
stream termination correctly without needing the None sentinel.
Reported by Rohit Paul on X.
The /v1/responses endpoint used an in-memory OrderedDict that lost
all conversation state on gateway restart. Replace with SQLite-backed
storage at ~/.hermes/response_store.db.
- Responses and conversation name mappings survive restarts
- Same LRU eviction behavior (configurable max_size)
- WAL mode for concurrent read performance
- Falls back to in-memory SQLite if disk path unavailable
- Conversation name→response_id mapping moved into the store
* feat: OpenAI-compatible API server platform adapter
Salvaged from PR #956, updated for current main.
Adds an HTTP API server as a gateway platform adapter that exposes
hermes-agent via the OpenAI Chat Completions and Responses APIs.
Any OpenAI-compatible frontend (Open WebUI, LobeChat, LibreChat,
AnythingLLM, NextChat, ChatBox, etc.) can connect by pointing at
http://localhost:8642/v1.
Endpoints:
- POST /v1/chat/completions — stateless Chat Completions API
- POST /v1/responses — stateful Responses API with chaining
- GET /v1/responses/{id} — retrieve stored response
- DELETE /v1/responses/{id} — delete stored response
- GET /v1/models — list hermes-agent as available model
- GET /health — health check
Features:
- Real SSE streaming via stream_delta_callback (uses main's streaming)
- In-memory LRU response store for Responses API conversation chaining
- Named conversations via 'conversation' parameter
- Bearer token auth (optional, via API_SERVER_KEY)
- CORS support for browser-based frontends
- System prompt layering (frontend system messages on top of core)
- Real token usage tracking in responses
Integration points:
- Platform.API_SERVER in gateway/config.py
- _create_adapter() branch in gateway/run.py
- API_SERVER_* env vars in hermes_cli/config.py
- Env var overrides in gateway/config.py _apply_env_overrides()
Changes vs original PR #956:
- Removed streaming infrastructure (already on main via stream_consumer.py)
- Removed Telegram reply_to_mode (separate feature, not included)
- Updated _resolve_model() -> _resolve_gateway_model()
- Updated stream_callback -> stream_delta_callback
- Updated connect()/disconnect() to use _mark_connected()/_mark_disconnected()
- Adapted to current Platform enum (includes MATTERMOST, MATRIX, DINGTALK)
Tests: 72 new tests, all passing
Docs: API server guide, Open WebUI integration guide, env var reference
* feat(whatsapp): make reply prefix configurable via config.yaml
Reworked from PR #1764 (ifrederico) to use config.yaml instead of .env.
The WhatsApp bridge prepends a header to every outgoing message.
This was hardcoded to '⚕ *Hermes Agent*'. Users can now customize
or disable it via config.yaml:
whatsapp:
reply_prefix: '' # disable header
reply_prefix: '🤖 *My Bot*\n───\n' # custom prefix
How it works:
- load_gateway_config() reads whatsapp.reply_prefix from config.yaml
and stores it in PlatformConfig.extra['reply_prefix']
- WhatsAppAdapter reads it from config.extra at init
- When spawning bridge.js, the adapter passes it as
WHATSAPP_REPLY_PREFIX in the subprocess environment
- bridge.js handles undefined (default), empty (no header),
or custom values with \\n escape support
- Self-chat echo suppression uses the configured prefix
Also fixes _config_version: was 9 but ENV_VARS_BY_VERSION had a
key 10 (TAVILY_API_KEY), so existing users at v9 would never be
prompted for Tavily. Bumped to 10 to close the gap. Added a
regression test to prevent this from happening again.
Credit: ifrederico (PR #1764) for the bridge.js implementation
and the config version gap discovery.
