The existing tests cover _normalize_moa_model() in isolation and a local
precedence expression, but not the __init__ wiring itself. Add two
init-level regression tests: constructing HermesCLI(model='moa:strategy')
strips the prefix to model='strategy' and forces requested_provider='moa',
and the moa: prefix wins over an explicit --provider. Both fail if the
override is dropped from the requested_provider resolution.
Refs #56828
hermes chat -Q -m moa:strategy failed with 'model moa:strategy is not
supported' (HTTP 401/400): the raw model string was passed straight to
the real provider. The MoA virtual provider only got wired up through the
interactive /moa command and the model picker, never through the -Q
one-shot startup path.
resolve_runtime_provider already handles requested_provider == 'moa', and
agent_init builds the MoAClient off provider == 'moa' (surface-agnostic).
The only gap was mapping the moa:<preset> model string to that provider.
Add _normalize_moa_model() and apply it in HermesCLI.__init__ before
provider resolution: a moa:<preset> model sets requested_provider='moa'
and model=<preset>, so the existing MoA path runs in non-interactive mode
too. The moa: prefix wins over an explicit --provider (previously
--provider deepseek -m moa:strategy silently dropped MoA).
Fixes#56828
* fix(desktop): hide persisted agent-only history scaffolding
Filter verification-stop nudges and context-compaction handoffs at the
stored-history mapper boundary. Preserve a real reply when a compaction
handoff shares its stored message.
* test(desktop): build persisted E2E sessions through the real agent
Drive tui_gateway.entry over its stdio JSON-RPC transport against the mock
provider, wait for real completion events, and persist normal session history
through AIAgent and SessionDB. Migrate resume and hidden-history coverage,
including real compression and live verify-on-stop scaffolding, then remove
the unused direct SessionDB import scripts.
* fix(desktop): use the provisioned Python for real-session E2Es
Run the stdio gateway through uv's synced project environment outside the
Nix dev shell, while retaining the fully provisioned Nix Python when the
shell advertises HERMES_PYTHON_SRC_ROOT.
* fix(nix): expose the provisioned Python environment to uv
Mark the Nix-built Python environment active in the dev shell so the shared
E2E session builder can always run through `uv run --active --no-sync`.
* fix(timeline): persist typed display events
* fix(timeline): strip display-only fields from provider payloads, preserve through rewrites, fix /resume display history
Three review findings from PR #69771:
1. Provider payload leak: display_kind and display_metadata were forwarded
to the provider API as unknown message fields. Strict OpenAI-compatible
backends can reject the next request after a model switch or resumed
typed event. Strip both from the per-request api_msg copy in
conversation_loop alongside the existing api_content pop.
2. Rewrite/import data loss: _insert_message_rows preserved display_kind
but silently dropped display_metadata. After replace_messages,
archive_and_compact, or session import, async-delegation completion
events lost their task counts and fell back to generic display text.
Add display_metadata to the INSERT columns and bind tuple.
3. CLI /resume stale recap: startup --resume A set _resume_display_history
from A's lineage. A subsequent in-session /resume B loaded B only into
conversation_history via get_messages_as_conversation, leaving the stale
A display projection. _display_resumed_history preferentially read the
stale attribute, showing A's recap for B. Switch /resume to
get_resume_conversations and update _resume_display_history alongside
conversation_history.
Tests: 890 Python (5 files), 35 desktop TS — all green.
* feat(tui): render typed display events as ◈ markers in the Ink TUI
The TUI was not handling display_kind at all — model switch markers and
async delegation completions rendered as opaque user messages with the
full [System: ...] text, and hidden compaction handoffs were visible.
Wire display_kind through the full TUI chain:
- _history_to_messages (tui_gateway/server.py) forwards display_kind
and display_metadata to the gateway transcript payload.
- GatewayTranscriptMessage (gatewayTypes.ts) gains both fields.
- Msg.kind (types.ts) gains 'event' value.
- toTranscriptMessages (domain/messages.ts) maps:
- hidden → skip entirely
- model_switch → event "model changed"
- async_delegation_complete → event "N background agents finished"
(or "background agent work finished" without metadata)
- messageGroup (blockLayout.ts) routes event to its own group, with
SELF_SPACED + PAINTS_TRAILING_GAP so it owns its margins.
- messageLine.tsx renders event-kind as a dim ◈ marker with no gutter,
matching the CLI's ◈ event rendering.
- 4 new TUI tests for hidden/model_switch/async_delegation mapping.
TUI typecheck: clean. TUI lint: 0 errors (2 pre-existing warnings).
TUI tests: 9 passed (1 pre-existing failure on main, unrelated).
Follow-up to the salvaged #57634 commits:
- agent/manual_compression_feedback.py: new describe_compression_lock_skip()
— single source of truth for lock-skip wording. A descriptive holder
string means another compressor CONFIRMED holds the lock ('already in
progress (holder: ...)'); True/None means acquisition failed without a
confirmed holder (hermes_state.try_acquire_compression_lock catches
sqlite3.Error internally and returns False), so the message says
'could not acquire ... the lock check failed' instead of falsely
claiming a concurrent compression is running.
- cli.py, gateway/slash_commands.py, tui_gateway/server.py (all three
in-process consumers: session.compress RPC, command.dispatch compress
branch, slash.exec mirror) now route through the shared helper.
- tui_gateway/server.py command.dispatch compress branch: catch
CompressionLockHeld explicitly — it previously fell into the generic
'compress failed' error handler.
- Deferred-notify contract (#69324): lock-skip discards the pending
context-engine notification (committed=False) in _compress_session_history
and the CLI path before returning.
- tests: lock-skip wording pins per surface, VISIBLE_COMPRESSION_MESSAGES
noise-filter carve-outs for both wordings, MagicMock signal opt-outs for
sibling tests added on main after the original PR.
Advisor review found a critical stale-signal leak: if auto-compress
sets _compression_skipped_due_to_lock during a lock-skip, a subsequent
successful manual /compress will see the stale signal, falsely report
'Compression already in progress', and discard the compression results.
Fix:
- compress_context clears _compression_skipped_due_to_lock = None at
entry so each call's outcome alone determines the signal.
- Unified gateway 'holder: unknown' drift to match CLI/TUI pattern
(omit holder clause when not a descriptive string).
- Added MagicMock opt-outs in 3 sibling test files broken by the new
signal check (test_compress_here, test_compress_focus,
test_compress_plugin_engine).
- Added stale-signal-leak invariant test proving the fix.
The startup pruner only considered directories named hermes-* (the
hermes -w scratch trees), so salvage/review/port lanes created with raw
'git worktree add' accumulated forever — a real checkout reached 117
directories / 26 GB with trees dating back months. Two further leaks:
squash-merged branches' local commits stay unreachable from
refs/remotes/* forever, so the unpushed-commits guard preserved fully
merged scratch trees indefinitely; and preserved trees rotted silently
with no visibility.
- Pruner now covers every directory under .worktrees/ except kanban
task trees (t_<hex>, owned by 'hermes kanban gc'). Named (non
hermes-*) trees get a 3x timeline (72h soft / 9d hard) since they
were created deliberately.
- New _worktree_commits_all_merged_upstream(): git-cherry
patch-equivalence check against origin/HEAD|main|master, bounded at
20 commits ahead, fails safe toward preserve. Lets the pruner reap
trees whose every local-only commit already landed upstream via
squash-merge/cherry-pick.
- Dirty guard now applies at every tier (previously the 24-72h tier
skipped it — it only survived because the unpushed check usually
caught the same trees).
- Trees preserved for unpushed/dirty reasons older than 7 days are
listed in a single WARNING so in-flight work can't rot silently.
- tips.py text updated; 13 new behavior-contract tests.
- tests/cli/test_compress_type_ahead.py: end-to-end proof of the PR #68284
docstring claim — a prompt queued into _pending_input while /compress runs
survives compaction untouched and is the next item process_loop drains,
i.e. it is processed against the compacted history. Plus a structural
guard that handle_enter never gates on _command_running /
_command_blocks_input (read-only enforcement belongs solely to the
TextArea Condition; a busy-gate in handle_enter would silently drop
type-ahead input).
- tests/test_cli_manual_compress.py: update the one remaining _busy_command
stub (added on main after the PR branched) to accept the new
blocks_input kwarg.
- contributors/emails: map lucas@policastromd.com -> enzo2.
compression.enabled: false is documented (agent/conversation_loop.py
overflow path) as disabling *automatic* compaction only — the terminal
context-overflow error explicitly tells users to run /compress manually,
and the gateway handler has never gated on the flag. But the classic CLI
(_manual_compress) and the ACP adapter (/compact) refused with
'Compression is disabled', leaving users at a full context with no
manual escape hatch on those surfaces.
Remove the stale gates (they predate the overflow-path design; the CLI
gate came from the original /compress commit's boilerplate) and unify
force=True across all manual-compaction call sites: ACP /compact and the
TUI's _compress_session_history (manual-only helper) now bypass the
summary-failure cooldown exactly like the CLI and gateway already did.
Also reword the ACP /context status line so a disabled-compression agent
no longer implies /compact is unavailable.

Removes Homebrew and PyPI wheel/sdist as Hermes distribution paths while
preserving the supported source, Docker, and Nix workflows.
Changes:
- Removes the Homebrew formula, PyPI publish workflow, sdist manifest
(MANIFEST.in), and wheel/sdist release-attachment logic from scripts/release.py.
- Keeps setuptools metadata and entry points required by editable installs
and Docker/Nix builds, but adds a setup.py guard that rejects wheel/sdist
builds outside a sealed Nix derivation (HERMES_NIX_BUILD=1).
- Removes pip/Homebrew install detection, PyPI update checks, the pip
self-update path, the deprecation-banner state, the postinstall subcommand,
wheel data-directory fallbacks in agent/i18n.py and hermes_constants.py,
and the ACP Registry manifest/version-lockstep release logic.
- Adds /nix/store/ path detection so `nix run` / `nix profile install`
installs (which don't set HERMES_MANAGED) are correctly identified as
"nix" rather than falling through to "git"/"unknown".
- Retired install-method values ("pip", "homebrew") in existing
.install_method stamps (both code-scoped and home-scoped) are ignored by
the allowlist reader and fall through to "unknown" instead of resurrecting
a retired enum value.
- Updates Nix packaging to ship bare runtime data (locales, optional-mcps)
through store symlinks and wrapper env vars instead of wheel data-files.
- Removes the ACP Registry manifest/icon and their version-lockstep tests.
- Deletes or rewrites packaging, pip-update, Homebrew, and ACP Registry
tests; adds parametrized coverage for the packaging build guard covering
BOTH sdist and wheel paths (the guards live in separate cmdclass entries
— a passing sdist test proves nothing about the wheel path).
- Updates installation/platform documentation and related user-facing copy.
- Adjusts the supply-chain scan so deleted install-hook files do not trigger
a finding, while additions or modifications still require the existing
ci-reviewed label gate.
Supported installation paths (unchanged):
- git installer (install.sh)
- Docker
- Nix/NixOS
- editable development installs (uv sync, uv pip install -e ., pip install -e .)
- Remove redundant platform= test seam from _terminal_may_leak_cpr();
use monkeypatch.setattr(sys, 'platform', ...) consistently in both
test files.
- Wrap PTY tests in try/finally for fd cleanup on assertion failure.
- Guard select.select() in terminal thread against OSError after fd
close (fixes PytestUnhandledThreadExceptionWarning).
- Trim PR-number reference from test module docstring.
Add a delayed-CPR PTY harness (no SSH) plus selection/Application
assertions for POSIX local and Windows preserve-default. Update the
gating unit test to the new contract.
Large pastes collapse to a placeholder in the composer, but input history
stored the placeholder — so up-arrow recall showed a truncated reference
(CLI) or lost the content entirely (TUI, where the `[[…]]` label has no
backing snip after submit).
Store the expanded content in history instead:
- CLI: `_inline_pastes()` expands `[Pasted text #N -> file]` into the buffer
before `reset(append_to_history=True)`; also reused by the external editor
(dedup). History nav suppresses re-collapse of recalled content.
- TUI: `dispatchSubmission` pushes `expandSnips(pasteSnips)(full)`; idempotent
on label-free text so re-submitting a recalled entry stays stable.
Follow-up to the salvaged transport-failure auto-pause (#54387): the PR
branch predates the CLI completion gate merged in #67985, so that new
judge_goal consumer (hermes_cli/kanban.py) needed the 5-value unpack too
— otherwise it would fail open again via the swallowed ValueError.
Also migrates the two remaining 4-value mocks in
tests/cli/test_cli_goal_interrupt.py flagged on the earlier PR #27760.
* fix(fast): default /fast to session scope on CLI and gateway
Completes the session-first policy from #67946 for the /fast toggle
(the remaining half of #54084). A bare /fast fast|normal now applies to
the current session only; --global persists agent.service_tier to
config.yaml.
Gateway: new _session_service_tier_overrides dict (registered in
_CONVERSATION_SCOPED_STATE so /new clears it) resolved at both agent
turn sites via _resolve_session_service_tier(); the /fast handler and
its choice picker apply session overrides and evict the cached agent.
The TUI config.set fast path was already session-scoped.
CLI: /fast parses --global (parity with /reasoning); bare toggles
mutate self.service_tier only.
* fix(sessions): /new resets model, reasoning, and fast to config defaults
/new and /reset are full conversation boundaries: session-scoped
runtime overrides do not carry into the next session (#48055, #23131).
CLI new_session(): clears the one-turn model restore, re-derives
service_tier from config, and — when the session's model differs from
the config default — switches back via the shared switch_model()
pipeline (live agent swap included; best-effort so an unreachable
default never blocks /new).
TUI _reset_session_agent(): stops forwarding model_override /
create_reasoning_override / create_service_tier_override into the
rebuilt agent and pops the pins so later rebuilds can't resurrect
them. The gateway already cleared its per-session overrides via
_clear_conversation_scope on /new.
Cross-session contamination stays impossible: nothing here touches
process-global env or other sessions' pins.
Parity with the gateway /reasoning handler and the new /model default:
a bare /reasoning <level> now applies to the current session only;
--global persists agent.reasoning_effort to config.yaml. --session is
still accepted as an explicit alias for the default. Display toggles
(show/hide/full/clamp) remain persistent as before — they are user
preferences, not conversation state.
Builds on YAMAGUCHI Seiji's #51158 (session-scope plumbing + /new reset,
cherry-picked as the previous commit) with the default flipped to match
the session-first policy. Fixes the CLI half of #54084.
Follow-up on the salvaged #67449: auxiliary.mcp is the side-LLM task
provider block (provider/model/timeout for MCP aux calls) — a watcher
behavior toggle doesn't belong there. Move it to a new top-level mcp:
runtime section and read it from the same freshly-parsed config.yaml the
watcher already diffs (no second load_config() per tick, and flipping the
toggle + editing mcp_servers in one edit behaves correctly).
Also adds a regression test for the salvaged #55701 false-positive fix:
${VAR} templates in mcp_servers made the raw-yaml-vs-expanded-snapshot
comparison permanently unequal, so ANY save_config_value() rewrite (e.g.
/reasoning changing agent.reasoning_effort) fired a full MCP reconnect.
Credits: @OYLFLMH (#55701 env-expand fix), @TurgutKural (#67449 opt-out).
The opt-out default was declared in DEFAULT_CONFIG["auxiliary"]["mcp"][...]
but the watcher in _check_config_mcp_changes() read top-level
load_config().get("mcp") — a key that does not exist in the loaded
config shape. Consequently the declared default was never observed and
the fallback stayed True at runtime: setting auto_reload_on_config_change
to false in config.yaml silently did nothing.
Resolve through the same path the default is declared on:
cfg["auxiliary"]["mcp"]["auto_reload_on_config_change"]
Tests:
- test_optout_disables_auto_reload: mocked config now mirrors the real
DEFAULT_CONFIG shape (auxiliary.mcp), so the test exercises the actual
lookup path instead of a separately mocked shape.
- test_optout_path_is_auxiliary_mcp_not_top_level: regression guard — a
config that sets ONLY top-level mcp.auto_reload_on_config_change=false
must NOT disable the reload. This pins the config-path contract so a
future regression to _cfg.get("mcp") is caught.
Addresses sweeper review: the declared default was never observed at
runtime because the watcher read a different config path than the one
where the default was defined.

The automatic MCP reload added in #1474 watches config.yaml's mcp_servers
section every 5s and reloads on any change. Every reload rebuilds the agent
tool surface and INVALIDATES the provider prompt cache — the next message
re-sends the full input prefix, which is expensive on long-context /
high-reasoning models. When config.yaml is rewritten frequently (external
tooling, multiple Hermes instances, or a flapping MCP server that rewrites
config), this causes silent, repeated cache-breaking reloads.
Add `mcp.auto_reload_on_config_change` (default: true, backward compatible).
When set to false:
- The config change is still DETECTED (watcher keeps running).
- No automatic reload happens.
- The user is told the config changed, that new settings are NOT yet
applied, and how to apply them on their own terms with /reload-mcp —
including the explicit warning that /reload-mcp invalidates the prompt
cache.
Manual /reload-mcp is unaffected and still works for users who want to
apply changes deliberately.
Tests: extend TestMCPConfigWatch with test_optout_disables_auto_reload.

The dual-stack discovery change made the default-local /browser connect
path call discover_local_cdp_url instead of is_browser_debug_ready, so
the old is_browser_debug_ready patch no longer short-circuited the
probe. On the CI runner nothing listens on 9222, so the test fell
through to a REAL chromium launch (which dies headless:
'The platform failed to initialize') and no context note was queued.
Patch the new discovery helper at the mixin's import site instead.
* feat(attribution): conflict-free contributor mappings via contributors/emails/ directory
The AUTHOR_MAP dict in scripts/release.py was a merge-conflict magnet:
every concurrent salvage PR appended entries to the same lines of the
same file, so parallel PRs re-conflicted on every merge to main.
New system: one file per email under contributors/emails/ — filename is
the commit-author email, first non-comment line is the GitHub login.
File additions never conflict, so any number of PRs can add mappings
concurrently.
- scripts/release.py: AUTHOR_MAP is now LEGACY_AUTHOR_MAP (frozen)
merged with the directory at import time (directory wins). All
existing consumers (resolve_author, contributor_audit.py) unchanged.
- scripts/add_contributor.py: idempotent CLI to add a mapping; refuses
conflicting reassignments (incl. against the legacy map), validates
email/login shapes.
- contributor-check.yml: attribution gate now accepts a mapping file OR
a legacy entry; failure message prints the exact add_contributor
command. Also auto-resolves bare <login>@users.noreply.github.com
emails is intentionally NOT added (kept id+login form only, matching
previous behavior).
- contributor_audit.py: guidance now points at add_contributor.py.
- tests/scripts/test_contributor_map.py: 12 tests covering loader,
merge precedence, CLI idempotency/conflict/validation, subprocess E2E.
* feat(ci): one-shot per-file flake retry in the parallel test runner
A failing test FILE is re-run once in a fresh subprocess. Pass-on-retry
counts as green but is loudly reported in a '⚠ FLAKY' summary section
(with both attempts' output preserved) so the flake gets fixed instead
of eating a full-run rerun. Deterministic failures fail both attempts —
regressions cannot be laundered green.
- --file-retries N / HERMES_TEST_FILE_RETRIES (default 1, 0 disables)
- E2E verified: simulated first-run-fail flake goes green with banner;
deterministic failure still exits 1; retries=0 restores old behavior.
This converts the dominant CI failure mode (one timing-sensitive test
flaking a 4600-test shard, requiring a manual 10-minute rerun and an
agent triage loop) into a self-healing retry that costs one file's
runtime.
* test(approval): loosen wall-clock perf bounds 0.15s -> 2.0s
These guard against catastrophic regex backtracking (seconds-to-minutes
class), but 0.15s is within scheduler-stall noise on loaded shared CI
runners — test_max_accepted_separator_free_input_is_fast failed a CI
shard this week on runner load alone. 2.0s still catches the regression
class with zero flake surface.
* fix(ci): job timeouts everywhere + retries on all network installs
Reliability pass over every workflow:
- timeout-minutes on all 21 jobs that lacked one (a hung job previously
burned the 6-hour default runner budget)
- ./.github/actions/retry wrapped around every network-fetching install
that lacked it: pip installs (deploy-site, skills-index), npm ci
(deploy-site website, upload_to_pypi web + ui-tui), uv sync (docker
test deps). Deterministic build steps (npm run build) deliberately
NOT retried — split into separate steps so a real build failure fails
fast instead of retrying 3x.
* docs(agents): document the file-retry flake policy
* fix(ci): curl retries on deploy hook + skills-index probe
* fix(ci): kill the remaining transient-failure classes in workflows + Dockerfile
From the workflow reliability audit:
- tests.yml: duration-cache restore had NO restore-keys while saves use
run_id-suffixed keys — the cache never matched once, so LPT slicing
always ran blind and unbalanced slices pushed heavy files toward the
per-file timeout. One-line restore-keys fixes slice balancing.
- Label gates (lint ci-reviewed, supply-chain mcp-catalog-reviewed):
'gh pr view || true' turned an API blip into 'label absent' → false
BLOCKING failure. Now 3x retry, and API failure is reported as an API
failure instead of a missing label.
- detect-changes action: compare API retried before failing open (was
silently running all lanes on any blip).
- uv-lockfile-check: 'uv lock --check' resolves against PyPI — retried
so registry blips don't read as 'lockfile stale'.
- docker.yml merge job: imagetools create retried (Docker Hub eventual
consistency on just-pushed digests).
- Dockerfile: apt-get Acquire::Retries=3; s6-overlay ADDs converted to
curl --retry 3 (ADD cannot retry; checksums still enforced); npm
--fetch-retries=5; playwright chromium fetch retried 3x.
- Advisory artifact uploads (per-slice durations, ci-timings report)
get continue-on-error so an artifact-service blip can't fail a green
test slice.
* fix(tests): kill the two root-cause flakes — leaking pre-warm timer + env-dependent provider list
- test_tui_gateway_server.py: session.create / non-eager session.resume
arm a 50ms threading.Timer (_schedule_agent_build) that outlives its
test and fires into the NEXT test's _make_agent mock, racily
corrupting captured state (the recurring session_resume shard
failures). Replaced the per-test whack-a-mole stub with a module-wide
autouse fixture; the 3 worker-lifecycle tests that genuinely need the
deferred build opt back in via @pytest.mark.real_agent_prewarm (new
marker in pyproject).
- test_api_key_providers.py: PROVIDER_ENV_VARS is now derived from the
live PROVIDER_REGISTRY instead of a hand-list that had drifted
(missing HF_TOKEN / DEEPINFRA_API_KEY) — resolve_provider('auto')
tests failed on any machine with HF_TOKEN exported. E2E-verified with
HF_TOKEN/DEEPINFRA_API_KEY set: 42/42 pass.
* test: de-flake 30 timing-sensitive test files for loaded CI runners
Root-cause fixes from the flake audit (session-DB mining + repo sweep):
Event-based sync instead of sleep-sync:
- title_generator: mock sets threading.Event, wait(10) replaces
sleep(0.3) hoping the daemon thread got scheduled
- docker zombie_reaping / profile_gateway: poll-for-state helpers
replace fixed 1-3s sleeps (s6 transitions + SIGCHLD reaping are async)
- process_registry tree test: select()-bounded readline replaces an
unbounded blocking read (parent wedge now fails THIS test with a clear
message instead of an opaque rc=124 file kill); SIGTERM grace 1s->2s
(the 1s partition window mid-interpreter-startup is how a child PID
escaped the live-system guard in CI)
Timeout raises (loaded 8-way-sliced runners see ~5s scheduling floors;
all of these complete in ms-to-1s when healthy so the raises cost
nothing on green runs):
- subprocess/thread waits <= 2s raised to 10-15s across mcp_tool,
mcp_circuit_breaker, mcp_reconnect_retry_reset, mcp_parked_self_probe,
mcp_cancelled_error_propagation, registry, clarify_gateway, interrupt,
voice_cli_integration, docker_environment, session_store_lock_io,
planned_stop_watcher, cli_interrupt_subagent, thread_scoped_output
(joins now also assert not is_alive() so stragglers fail loudly)
- wall-clock discrimination ceilings loosened where the guarded hang is
10x larger: local_background_child_hang 4s->10s, interrupt_cleanup
setup 5s->20s + pgid-exit 30s->60s, mcp_stability grandchild spinup
5s->15s, protocol/gil-starvation fast-handler 0.5s->2s,
iso_certify_seam 1.5s->5s, wait_for_mcp_discovery 0.1s->1s
- narrow assertion windows widened: honcho first-turn wait 0.4..0.65 ->
0.25..2.0 (property is bounded-not-hung, not an exact wall-clock);
compression fork-lock TTL 1s->3s (12 refresh chances per lease);
compression-lock expiry margins symmetric (ttl 0.05->0.5, sleep 1.0)
- telegram hung-DNS bound 1.0->1.4 (fake hang is 1.5s — must stay under)
* fix(tests): repair indentation from de-flake batch edit
* fix(tests): harden env isolation and replace remaining sleep-sync races
The full 42k-test run and complete npm check surfaced three more classes:
- Environment isolation: local ~/.honcho defaultHost and SSH_* variables
leaked into Python/TUI tests. Pin the default Honcho host in the
hermetic fixture, isolate the one fallback test from ~/.honcho, and
blank SSH_* around terminalSetup tests. This flipped 20 false failures
back to deterministic behavior on developer machines.
- Background-thread sleep-sync: Honcho async writer tests patched
time.sleep globally, then busy-polled with that same mocked sleep. Under
full-suite load the poller could starve the writer. Each test now waits
on an Event emitted by the exact flush/retry transition; 30/30 passed
under 15-way contention.
- Desktop streaming: the test slept 80ms and assumed a 500ms timer could
not fire before its assertion. A loaded runner descheduled the test for
>500ms and both chunks arrived. Producer controls now gate second-chunk
and completion transitions explicitly.
Also make file-retry observability complete: a self-healed flaky file now
prints BOTH attempts' full output in the FLAKY summary. Two behavioral
runner tests prove pass-on-retry is green+loud+traceback-preserving, while
a deterministic failure remains red.
* refactor(ci): use gh bot pat, better retries
refactor(ci): use retry action for PR label fetch
the retry action now captures stdout as a step output, so it can serve
double duty: retry + output capture for commands like 'gh pr view' whose
result must be consumed by later steps.
Retry action gains:
- 'stdout' output (heredoc-delimited to preserve newlines)
- tee to temp file so stdout still streams to the job log
- step id 'retry' for output reference
Both lint.yml and supply-chain-audit.yml now use the retry action
directly with 'command: gh pr view ...' and read
steps.<id>.outputs.stdout.
ci: use AUTOFIX_BOT_PAT for all gh CLI / GitHub API auth
Replace secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN and github.token with
secrets.AUTOFIX_BOT_PAT across all workflows and composite actions
that use the gh CLI or GitHub API. The PAT has consistent permissions
across fork PRs (where GITHUB_TOKEN is read-only), avoids API rate
limit sharing with the default token, and is already used by
js-autofix.yml for the same reasons.

A hermes --tui session whose main thread wedges before app.run() returns
never executes the finally that calls _run_cleanup — the only place the
exit watchdog was armed — so a dead CLI lingered indefinitely (observed
~47 min at 4% CPU, the #65998 class).
Arm the backstop from the SIGTERM/SIGHUP handlers instead (both the
interactive and single-query paths), the earliest moment shutdown intent
is unambiguous. The signal-armed leash is 2x HERMES_EXIT_WATCHDOG_S so a
slow-but-progressing _run_cleanup (which still arms its own tighter timer)
is never cut short; the outer timer only wins when cleanup was never
reached. Idempotent across repeated signals; never raises from a handler.
Deliberately NOT armed at startup: the watchdog thread calls os._exit(0)
unconditionally after its sleep, so a startup-armed timer (the #65998
approach) would hard-kill every session that outlives the timeout.
Supersedes #65998; thanks @JeffStone69 for the report and root-cause gap
analysis.
Port from openai/codex#31494: user-visible history replay must strip CSI
sequences and control characters. Stored conversation history can carry
raw terminal escapes (pasted content, gateway-origin text, model output
echoing injected tool results). Replaying it via /resume's recap panel or
build_recap (/status on CLI + gateway) wrote those bytes straight to the
terminal — an injected message could clear the screen, retitle the window,
move the cursor, or restyle the recap UI. Rich's Text() does not neutralize
raw escape bytes.
- tools/ansi_strip.py: add sanitize_display_text() — strip_ansi() plus
bare C0/C1 control removal, preserving \n and \t, normalizing \r to \n
(adapted to Python from Codex's sanitize_user_text; reuses the existing
ECMA-48 stripper instead of transcribing their char-walk)
- hermes_cli/cli_agent_setup_mixin.py: sanitize user + assistant text in
_display_resumed_history() before building the Rich recap panel
- hermes_cli/session_recap.py: sanitize preview lines in build_recap()
(_truncate choke point) so /status recaps are clean on every platform
- tests: 10 new sanitize_display_text cases (incl. the exact codex#31494
fixture), recap + resume-display leak assertions
Preserve one durable staged input across terminal close and the worker's early turn flush, without duplicating resumed transcripts or creating a session with a null prompt. Fixes#63766.
Retain a distinct CLI history baseline during the signal window before a turn's normal persistence flush. When CLI history aliases the live agent list, use marker-only persistence so a genuinely unflushed tail is written.
- Return the boundary snapshot from
_launch_session_boundary_memory_flush as a local value instead of
staging it on self._session_boundary_snapshot. The instance-attr
handoff could leak (no memory manager configured) or mis-fire a
stale snapshot on a later /new if an exception hit between staging
and consumption. A local variable eliminates the class; the helper
also returns None when no memory manager is configured so
new_session takes the inline-switch path.
- Drop the now-dead session_id kwarg from commit_memory_session:
after the redesign no production caller passes it (gateway, TUI,
compression all use the default), and speculative params are
rejected per AGENTS.md. The explicit-old-session need is served by
cli.py's direct engine call + commit_session_boundary_async.
- Drop the dead providers snapshot in commit_session_boundary_async
(only the emptiness check used it).
- Tests updated accordingly (dead-kwarg test removed, snapshot
assertion now covered by return-value contract).
Phase-2 gates: 2a tests/cli 1048 passed + 6 memory files 137 passed;
2b programmatic live smoke 0.38ms non-blocking caller, end→switch→sync
ordering verified; 2c structured 4-angle review — no Criticals, these
warnings fixed.
Deep review of the cherry-picked #16454 found the ad-hoc flush thread
raced new_session()'s inline on_session_switch(reset=True): memory
providers key off internal _session_id state (MemoryManager.on_session_end
takes no session id), so a late off-thread extraction ran against
post-rotation bindings — misattributing the old transcript to the new
session id, double-ingesting the old turn buffer (supermemory), or
double-committing (openviking already async-finalizes in
on_session_switch).
Redesign: new MemoryManager.commit_session_boundary_async queues
on_session_end + on_session_switch as ONE task on the manager's existing
single-worker background executor (the same worker sync_all already
uses). This preserves the strict end→switch ordering providers depend on,
serializes against per-turn syncs FIFO, keeps /new non-blocking, and
degrades to inline (pre-#16454 behavior) when the executor is
unavailable. No ad-hoc threads; no per-provider changes needed.
The context-engine on_session_end half stays synchronous in
_launch_session_boundary_memory_flush (cheap, must land before
reset_session_state rebinds the engine).
Exit durability: _run_cleanup calls the manager's existing
flush_pending(timeout=10) barrier before shutdown, so '/new then quit'
doesn't drop the queued extraction (shutdown_all's own drain is ~5s and
cancels queued tasks). Bounded well inside the 30s exit watchdog.
Tests: ordering invariant with slow (LLM-like) extraction, FIFO
serialization vs sync_all, switch-fires-even-if-end-raises, no-provider
no-op, CLI snapshot handoff + inline-switch fallback, sync engine
boundary, cleanup flush_pending.
In single-query (-q) mode, the assistant's final answer was printed and
then immediately erased by _print_exit_summary() — which unconditionally
called _clear_terminal_on_exit() (ESC[3J ESC[2J ESC[H]). The answer was
present in the session store but invisible in the terminal.
The clear is only needed for interactive TUI teardown (#38928) where
prompt_toolkit chrome must be cleaned up. Add a clear_screen parameter
to _print_exit_summary() (default True, preserving interactive behavior)
and pass False from the single-query call site so the answer stays
visible above the exit summary.
Regression tests cover:
- clear_screen=True (default) calls _clear_terminal_on_exit()
- clear_screen=False skips the clear
- Single-query -q path passes False end-to-end
- Interactive path still clears (preserving #38928)
Follow-up to #59332 targeting the remaining PERCEIVED first-token latency
(the wire streaming was already per-token; these fix what the user sees):
1. display.show_reasoning default ON. On thinking models the reasoning
phase streams for tens of seconds; with the display off users stare
at a spinner the whole time and read it as a stall. Flipped in
DEFAULT_CONFIG, load_cli_config defaults, tui_gateway raw-YAML
fallbacks, and the hermes setup status line (all four read sites kept
in sync). Gateway per-platform defaults intentionally stay off —
messaging chats shouldn't fill with thinking text. /reasoning hide
still turns it off and persists.
2. Response box force-flushes long partial lines. _emit_stream_text only
painted on newline, so a response opening with a long paragraph
stayed invisible until the first \n — seconds of blank box. Now
partial lines wrap at terminal width and paint as tokens arrive
(mirrors the reasoning box's 80-char force-flush that existed since
day one). Table blocks remain batch-aligned; no content loss at wrap
boundaries (regression tests added).
3. hermes_time timezone resolution uses read_raw_config (mtime-cached +
libyaml C loader) instead of a raw yaml.safe_load of config.yaml
(~110-140ms measured) inside the FIRST system prompt build. First
build drops 320ms -> ~155ms on a 200-skill install.
4. Stale docs: configuration.md (en+zh) still documented the 70%/90%
[BUDGET WARNING] tool-result injections. Those were removed in April
2026 (c8aff7463) precisely because they hurt task completion; current
behavior is exhaustion-message + one grace call, no mid-loop
injection, no cache impact. Docs now describe reality.
Verified: token-count compression decisions already use API-reported
last_prompt_tokens (rough estimators are preflight-only and cost ~1.7ms
even on 1.7MB histories — not worth touching).
