When a non-Anthropic provider (e.g. Morpheus proxy) returns a 429 with
`{"error": "Too Many Requests"}` instead of the expected
`{"error": {"type": ...}}` dict, _err_body.json().get("error", {})
returns the raw string and the next .get("type") line crashes with
AttributeError, taking down the message handler.
Guard with isinstance(_err_json, dict) so non-dict error bodies fall
through to the generic rate-limit hint.
Salvaged from PR #2587 by @KiraKatana. The PR's fallback-config
`base_url`/`api_key_env` fix was already implemented independently
on main (run_agent.py:8759-8780) with additional aliases and Ollama
Cloud host handling, so only the gateway guard is cherry-picked.

Discord's CDN serves attachments with Content-Encoding: br. aiohttp's
compression_utils tries 'import brotlicffi as brotli' first and falls back
to google's Brotli, but Brotli<1.2.0's Decompressor.process() is 1-arg
while aiohttp calls it with 2 args (data, max_length). Result: every
.txt/.md/.doc uploaded to a Discord-gateway session fails to decode at
att.read() with 'Can not decode content-encoding: br' / 'TypeError:
process() takes exactly 1 argument (2 given)', the agent never sees the
bytes, and falls back to filesystem guessing.
Pin brotlicffi==1.2.0.1 in both surfaces:
- tools/lazy_deps.py 'platform.discord' tuple: Discord users on the
lazy-install path get it on first discord.py import.
- pyproject.toml [messaging] extra: users who explicitly install
hermes-agent[messaging] (skipping the lazy path) get it eagerly.
brotlicffi wins aiohttp's import race regardless of what else is
installed (try brotlicffi / except: import brotli), so existing setups
that already pulled google's Brotli transitively don't change behavior
beyond the bug fix. ~1.5 MB wheel, manylinux/macOS/Windows coverage.
E2E verified: round-trip decode of Brotli-compressed payload via
aiohttp.compression_utils.brotli succeeds with brotlicffi pinned; same
test against Brotli==1.1.0 alone reproduces the reported TypeError.
Credit to @Korkyzer for the original diagnosis and fix shape in #15744;
the lazy-deps gating layer was added on top to keep brotlicffi out of
the install path for users who don't run a Discord gateway.
Fixes#12511.
Closes#15744.

The ACP Registry schema supports uvx as a first-class distribution method
alongside npx and binary. Pointing the registry directly at the existing
hermes-agent PyPI release removes:
- the @nousresearch npm scope (we don't own it)
- a separate npm publish step on every weekly release
- 90 lines of Node launcher + tests in packages/hermes-agent-acp/
The Zed registry now installs Hermes via:
uvx --from 'hermes-agent[acp]==<version>' hermes-acp
This is the same command the npm launcher was shelling out to anyway, so
end-user behavior is unchanged. Registry CI validates the PyPI URL +
version-pin exact match automatically.
Changes:
- acp_registry/agent.json: distribution.npx -> distribution.uvx
- delete packages/hermes-agent-acp/ entirely
- scripts/release.py: drop npm-launcher bump paths, keep manifest lockstep
- tests/acp/test_registry_manifest.py: assert uvx shape + version pin
- tests/scripts/test_release_acp_registry.py: rewrite for uvx-only shape
- docs (user-guide + dev-guide): drop all npm-launcher references
- delete docs/plans/acp-registry-zed-integration.md (stale, npm-shaped)
Validated against agentclientprotocol/registry agent.schema.json via
jsonschema. hermes-agent==0.13.0 is already live on PyPI.
The ACP Registry manifest (acp_registry/agent.json), the npm launcher
package.json, and the launcher's HERMES_AGENT_VERSION constant must all
match pyproject.toml exactly — tests/acp/test_registry_manifest.py
enforces this lockstep.
Without a release-script hook, the next weekly version bump fails that
test until someone hand-edits four files. Extend update_version_files()
to drive the ACP bump alongside __init__.py and pyproject.toml, and
add tests covering the lockstep and the missing-files no-op path.
Also map adam.manning@gmail.com -> am423 for the salvage commit.
Follow-up to the sandbox-bypass env-var fix:
- Update the opt-out gate so a user-provided AGENT_BROWSER_ARGS is also
respected, not just the legacy AGENT_BROWSER_CHROME_FLAGS. Previously
the gate only checked the broken legacy var, so a user who pre-set
AGENT_BROWSER_ARGS would still get clobbered by Hermes's auto-injection.
- Document AGENT_BROWSER_ARGS in .env.example, the browser feature page,
and the env var reference, with notes about the auto-injection on
AppArmor-restricted systems (Ubuntu 23.10+, DGX Spark, containers).
- Add Anadi Jaggia to AUTHOR_MAP.
When the terminal shrinks, already-printed box-drawing rules (response,
reasoning, streaming TTS, background-task Panels) reflow into multiple
narrower rows — visible as duplicated horizontal separators / ghost
lines in scrollback. Similarly, prompt_toolkit redraws a fresh status
bar on SIGWINCH on top of one the terminal just reflowed, producing
double-bar artifacts on column shrink.
Two surgical changes:
1. Decorative scrollback boxes now use a new
`HermesCLI._scrollback_box_width()` helper that clamps to
`max(32, min(width, 56))`. The live TUI footer is unaffected and still
uses the full width. Covers: streaming response box (open + close),
reasoning box (open + close, both streaming and post-stream paths),
streaming-TTS box close, final-response Rich Panel, and the
background-task Rich Panel.
2. `_recover_after_resize()` now also sets a new
`_status_bar_suppressed_after_resize` flag so the dynamic status bar
and both input separator rules stay hidden until the next user input.
The flag is cleared in the process loop the moment the user submits
their next prompt, restoring chrome cleanly.
Tests:
- New `test_input_rules_hide_after_resize_until_next_input` covers the
flag's effect on rule heights.
- New `test_scrollback_box_width_caps_to_resize_safe_value` covers the
helper at floor / cap / mid-range / overflow.
- Existing resize-recovery test extended to assert the flag flips.

The Debian/Ubuntu branch of install_node_deps() ran 'npx playwright install
--with-deps chromium' unconditionally. Playwright invokes sudo interactively
to apt-install Chromium's system libraries, which blocks the installer for
non-sudo users (systemd service accounts, unprivileged operator users) on
an unsatisfiable password prompt.
Changes:
- install.sh: gate --with-deps behind a sudo capability check on the apt
branch (matches the existing Arch/pacman branch pattern). Non-sudo users
fall back to 'npx playwright install chromium' alone and the installer
prints the exact 'sudo npx playwright install-deps chromium' command an
administrator can run separately.
- install.sh: add --skip-browser (alias --no-playwright) to skip the
Playwright step entirely for headless installs that don't need browser
automation. Mirrors the existing --no-venv / --skip-setup shape.
- installation.md: add a 'Non-Sudo / System Service User Installs' section
covering the admin/service-user split, the --skip-browser flag, and the
~/.local/bin PATH gotcha (the root cause of the 'No module named dotenv'
error users hit when running the repo source 'hermes' script with system
Python instead of the venv launcher).
- test_install_sh_browser_install.py: regression coverage for the
--skip-browser flag and the sudo-gate on the apt branch.
Reported by @ssilver in Discord.
Set file mode 0600 on ~/.hermes/.env after creation in the installer and
after every write via memory_setup._write_env_vars(). This ensures only
the file owner can read/write API keys and tokens, matching standard

The cherry-picked PR over-indented the edit_message_text block for

edit lived inside the preceding 'except Exception as exc' branch and
only fired when the callback raised. Dedent the try/except back to

the original flow that removes the inline buttons and shows the
'Switched to ...' confirmation.

* fix(cli): allow rotating broken OpenRouter / AI Gateway key in `hermes model` flow
Before: when `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` (or `AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY`) was already
set in ~/.hermes/.env, `hermes model openrouter` / `hermes model
ai-gateway` skipped the API-key prompt entirely and jumped straight to
the model picker. Users with a broken / expired / wrong key had no way
to replace it without editing ~/.hermes/.env by hand or re-running
`hermes setup` from scratch.
Both flows now route through the existing `_prompt_api_key()` helper,
which surfaces [K]eep / [R]eplace / [C]lear when a key is already
configured — the same UX the generic API-key providers (z.ai, MiniMax,
Gemini, etc.) and the Daytona setup already use.
* fix(install.ps1): pin uv sync target to venv\, verify baseline imports
Two related Windows-installer bugs that produce a broken venv with
`ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dotenv'` on first `hermes` run.
## Bug 1: uv sync ignores VIRTUAL_ENV, syncs into .venv\ instead of venv\
`Install-Dependencies` creates the venv at `venv\` via `uv venv venv`,
sets `$env:VIRTUAL_ENV = "$InstallDir\venv"`, then runs
`uv sync --extra all --locked`. Modern uv (>=0.5) ignores `VIRTUAL_ENV`
for the `sync` subcommand and uses the project default `.venv\`
instead. Result: deps land in `$InstallDir\.venv\`, `venv\` stays
empty except for the python.exe stub from the earlier `uv venv` call,
`hermes.exe` ends up wired to the wrong site-packages.
The bash installer (`scripts/install.sh`) already worked around this in
`install_deps()` line 1127 by passing `UV_PROJECT_ENVIRONMENT` — that
flag tells uv exactly where to put the project env regardless of
`VIRTUAL_ENV`. Port the same fix to PowerShell.
## Bug 2: no post-install verification
If the sync still misdirects for any other reason (uv version drift,
filesystem quirk, user re-run scenarios), the installer reports success
and the user only finds out by running `hermes` and getting an
unhelpful traceback. Add a baseline-import probe that runs the venv's
own python against the four packages every `hermes` invocation needs
(`dotenv`, `openai`, `rich`, `prompt_toolkit`). On failure, throw
with a recovery command tailored to whether a sibling `.venv\` exists.
User report (Windows 11, Python 3.13.5, Hermes v0.13.0): manual repro
steps were exactly this — `uv sync` landed in `.venv\`, recovered by
junctioning `venv\` → `.venv\` to bridge the path mismatch.
setup_path() writes the user-facing hermes shim with `cat >`, which
follows existing symlinks. Older installs created
`$command_link_dir/hermes` as a symlink to `$HERMES_BIN`
(`venv/bin/hermes`), so re-running install.sh stomped the pip entry
point with a bash shim that exec'd itself in an infinite loop.
`rm -f` the link target before writing so the shim lands at
`$command_link_dir/hermes` and the venv entry point is left intact.
Adds a regression test that reproduces the symlink-stomp end-to-end
(creates the symlink, drives the real shim-write block from setup_path,
asserts the venv pip script body survives and the shim is now a regular
file). Both new assertions fail on origin/main and pass with the fix.
Closes#21454.
Follow-up to Alex-wuhu's NovitaAI provider commit. Adds:
- _pricing_cache hit/write in _fetch_novita_pricing (was missing — every
pricing fetch was re-hitting the network), mirroring the
fetch_ai_gateway_pricing pattern. force_refresh now also propagates
from get_pricing_for_provider.
- TestNovitaProvider in tests/hermes_cli/test_api_key_providers.py
covering profile load, alias resolution, registry auto-registration,
model list parity between main.py and models.py, _URL_TO_PROVIDER,
_PROVIDER_PREFIXES, context_size in _CONTEXT_LENGTH_KEYS, pricing
unit conversion, and pricing cache behavior.
- AUTHOR_MAP entry for yanglongwei06@gmail.com → @Alex-yang00.
Both addresses route to the same GitHub account (@simpolism / snav). Adding
the mappings here keeps release notes from showing two separate contributors
for what is one person's work, and unblocks subsequent PRs from this account
that would otherwise each need their own scripts/release.py noise.
Belt-and-suspenders complement to the cached-system-prompt inheritance:
pin session_start and session_id to the parent's so any code path that
re-renders parts of the system prompt (compression, plugin hooks)
still produces byte-identical output. The cached-prompt assignment
already short-circuits the normal rebuild path, but these pins
guarantee parity even if a future code path bypasses the cache.

Follow-up on @pty819's t2a_v2 endpoint fix:
- Default model: speech-02 -> speech-02-hd (bare 'speech-02' is not in the
supported enum; t2a_v2 rejects it with 400). Official enum: speech-01-hd,
speech-01-turbo, speech-02-hd, speech-02-turbo, speech-2.6-hd/turbo,
speech-2.8-hd/turbo.
- Default voice: female-shaonv -> English_expressive_narrator. The
legacy speech-01-series short ID doesn't resolve cleanly on the
speech-02+ models that are now the default.
- Default base URL: api.minimaxi.com -> api.minimax.io (matches the
canonical host in the published docs; api-uw.minimax.io is the
reduced-latency alt).
- Add GroupId support via tts.minimax.group_id config or MINIMAX_GROUP_ID
env var. Some MiniMax accounts scope TTS requests by group; without it,
requests 401. Only appended when not already in the user's base_url.
Tests rewritten to cover both the default t2a_v2 path (hex-encoded audio
in JSON, nested voice_setting/audio_setting) and the legacy
text_to_speech path (raw audio bytes, flat payload). Adds coverage for
GroupId config/env wiring and error surfacing.
Also adds AUTHOR_MAP entry for pty819's GitHub-noreply email.
Adds an explicit API compatibility mode prompt to the `hermes model -> custom`
flow so Codex-compatible third-party endpoints (and any other non-default
backend whose URL doesn't match the existing heuristics in
`_detect_api_mode_for_url`) can be selected explicitly instead of silently
falling back to chat_completions.
Choices: Auto-detect / chat_completions / codex_responses / anthropic_messages.
Persists `api_mode` to:
- `model.api_mode` (active session config)
- the matching `custom_providers[*]` entry (so re-activating the named
provider next time replays the same transport)
Salvaged from PR #6125 onto current main: kept the new prompt and the
`_save_custom_provider(api_mode=...)` plumbing; the named-custom flow
already extracts and applies `api_mode` from the saved entry on current
main so those changes are preserved as-is. Test fixtures updated for the
new prompt and the existing display-name prompt.

* fix(install): use `--extra all` not `--all-extras`; drop lazy-covered extras from [all]
Two coupled fixes for the Windows install hang where uv sync built
python-olm from sdist and failed on missing make.
# Root cause: --all-extras vs --extra all (credit: ethernet)
`uv sync --all-extras` installs every key in [project.optional-
dependencies], bypassing the curated [all] extra entirely. So even
when [all] excluded [matrix], [rl], [yc-bench], etc., the installer
pulled them anyway because they were still defined as extras. On
Windows that meant python-olm (no wheel, needs make to build from
sdist) and the install died there.
The right flag is `--extra all` — install just the [all] extra's
contents, respecting curation. Empirically verified via dry-run:
--all-extras: pulls python-olm, mautrix, ctranslate2, onnxruntime,
atroposlib, tinker, wandb, modal, daytona, vercel,
python-telegram-bot, discord.py, slack-bolt,
dingtalk-stream, lark-oapi, anthropic, boto3,
edge-tts, elevenlabs, exa-py, fal-client, faster-
whisper, firecrawl-py, honcho-ai, parallel-web
--extra all: pulls none of those — just [all]'s curated set
Dockerfile already uses `--extra all` (with comment explaining the
gotcha) — knowledge existed; the gap was install.sh / install.ps1 /
setup-hermes.sh.
Sites fixed: scripts/install.sh L1118, scripts/install.ps1 L809,
setup-hermes.sh L245.
# Companion fix: drop lazy-covered extras from [all]
`tools/lazy_deps.py` already covers anthropic, bedrock, exa,
firecrawl, parallel-web, fal, edge-tts, elevenlabs, modal, daytona,
vercel, all messaging platforms (telegram/discord/slack/matrix/
dingtalk/feishu), honcho, and faster-whisper. They were ALSO in
[all], which defeats the whole point of lazy-install — fresh
installs eager-pulled them and inherited whatever was broken
upstream (the matrix → python-olm → no Windows wheel chain being
the proximate symptom).
[all] now contains only what genuinely can't be lazy-installed:
cron, cli, dev, pty, mcp, homeassistant, sms, acp, google, web,
youtube. Same trim applied to [termux-all]. New regression test
asserts the contract: every extra in LAZY_DEPS must NOT also appear
in [all].
# Companion fix: surface uv progress + errors
setup-hermes.sh's hash-verified path swallowed uv's stderr to a
tempfile, identical to the install.sh bug fixed in PR #24504. Same
fix applied: stream stderr through directly so users see live
progress instead of staring at a frozen prompt.
# Files
- pyproject.toml: trim [all] and [termux-all] to non-lazy extras only.
- scripts/install.sh: --all-extras → --extra all; trim _ALL_EXTRAS /
_PYPI_EXTRAS to match.
- scripts/install.ps1: --all-extras → --extra all; trim $allExtras /
$pypiExtras to match.
- setup-hermes.sh: --all-extras → --extra all; stream stderr.
- tests/test_project_metadata.py: invert matrix-in-[all] assertion;
add lazy-coverage contract test.
- uv.lock: regenerated.
# Validation
5/5 metadata tests pass. 37/37 in update_autostash + tool_token_
estimation. `uv lock --check` passes. Empirical dry-run confirms
`--extra all` excludes python-olm + RL chain on the new lockfile.
* fix(install): parse [all] from pyproject.toml instead of mirroring it
ethernet's review point: the previous patch left two hand-mirrored
copies of [all]'s contents (in install.sh's $_ALL_EXTRAS and
install.ps1's $allExtras). That guarantees future drift the next
time pyproject.toml's [all] changes.
Now both scripts parse pyproject.toml at install time using stdlib
tomllib (Python 3.11+, which the bootstrap step already requires).
Single source of truth. The only purpose of the parsed list is to
build the 'Tier 2: [all] minus broken extras' fallback spec — so we
parse, filter against $brokenExtras, and rebuild the .[a,b,c] spec.
Also: removed redundant fallback tiers.
Before: Tier 1 [all]
Tier 2 [all] minus broken
Tier 3 PyPI-only extras (no git deps)
Tier 4 [web,mcp,cron,cli,messaging,dev]
Tier 5 .
After: Tier 1 [all]
Tier 2 [all] minus broken
Tier 3 .
Tier 3 (PyPI-only) and Tier 4 (dashboard+core) used to dodge the [rl]
git+sdist deps and the [matrix] python-olm build. Both are no longer
in [all] post-2026-05-12 lazy-install migration, so the carve-out
tiers had no remaining content. Tier 4 also referenced [messaging],
which is now lazy-installed — the hardcoded fallback was actually
inconsistent with the new policy.
Defensive fallback: if tomllib parse fails (corrupted pyproject,
unexpected schema), Tier 2 collapses to '.[all]' (same as Tier 1) so
the broken-extras path becomes a no-op rather than crashing.
* fix(gateway): hide Matrix from setup picker on Windows
Matrix is the one messaging platform that has no working install path
on Windows: [matrix] -> mautrix[encryption] -> python-olm, which has
Linux-only wheels and needs make + libolm to build from sdist. The
[all] cleanup in this PR keeps mautrix out of fresh installs, but a
user who picked Matrix in 'hermes setup gateway' would still walk
into the same sdist build failure when the wizard tried to install
the extra.
Hide the option at the picker so users never get the chance to try.
The gate lives in _all_platforms() — single source of truth for the
setup wizard, the curses gateway-config menu, and any future picker.
Adapter loading at runtime is intentionally NOT gated: users who
already have MATRIX_* env vars set (e.g. config copied from a Linux
install) keep working if they somehow have python-olm available.
This is the lowest-friction fix — picker visibility only.
Tests cover linux/darwin/win32 and verify other platforms aren't
collateral damage.
