Xiaomi MiMo's /v1/models endpoint returns 401 even with a valid API key,
causing hermes doctor to falsely report 'invalid API key'.
Add a `supports_health_check` field to ProviderProfile (default True).
Providers whose /models endpoint doesn't support auth verification can
set it to False. The doctor's dynamic provider discovery now reads this
field instead of hardcoding True.
The xiaomi provider plugin sets supports_health_check=False.
* feat(security): supply-chain advisory checker + lazy-install framework + tiered install fallback
Three coordinated mitigations for the Mini Shai-Hulud worm hitting
mistralai 2.4.6 on PyPI (2026-05-12) and for the next single-package
compromise that follows.
# What this PR makes true
1. Users with the poisoned mistralai 2.4.6 in their venv get a loud
detection banner with copy-pasteable remediation steps the moment
they run hermes (and on every gateway startup).
2. One quarantined / yanked PyPI package can no longer silently demote
a fresh install to 'core only' — the installer keeps every other
extra and tells the user which tier landed.
3. Future opt-in backends (Mistral, ElevenLabs, Honcho, etc.) can
lazy-install on first use under a strict allowlist, instead of
eagerly pulling everything at install time.
# Detection: hermes_cli/security_advisories.py
- ADVISORIES catalog (one entry currently: shai-hulud-2026-05 for
mistralai==2.4.6). Adding the next one is a single dataclass.
- detect_compromised() uses importlib.metadata.version() — no pip
dependency, works in uv venvs that lack pip.
- Banner cache (~/.hermes/cache/advisory_banner_seen) rate-limits
the startup banner to once per 24h per advisory.
- Acks persisted to security.acked_advisories in config.yaml; never
re-banner after ack.
- Wired into:
* hermes doctor — runs first, prints full remediation block
* hermes doctor --ack <id> — dismisses an advisory
* cli.py interactive run() and single-query branches — short
stderr banner pointing at hermes doctor
* gateway/run.py startup — operator-visible warning in gateway.log
# Lazy-install framework: tools/lazy_deps.py
- LAZY_DEPS allowlist maps namespaced feature keys (tts.elevenlabs,
memory.honcho, provider.bedrock, etc.) to pip specs.
- ensure(feature) installs missing deps in the active venv via the
uv → pip → ensurepip ladder (matches tools_config._pip_install).
- Strict spec safety regex rejects URLs, file paths, shell metas,
pip flag injection, control chars — only PyPI-by-name accepted.
- Gated on security.allow_lazy_installs (default true) plus the
HERMES_DISABLE_LAZY_INSTALLS env var for restricted/audited envs.
- Migrated three backends as proof of pattern:
* tools/tts_tool.py — _import_elevenlabs() calls ensure first
* plugins/memory/honcho/client.py — get_honcho_client lazy-installs
* tts.mistral / stt.mistral entries pre-registered for when PyPI
restores mistralai
# Installer fallback tiers
scripts/install.sh, scripts/install.ps1, setup-hermes.sh:
- Centralised _BROKEN_EXTRAS list (currently: mistral). Edit one
array when a transitive breaks; users keep every other extra.
- New 'all minus known-broken' tier between [all] and the existing
PyPI-only-extras tier. Only kicks in when [all] fails resolve.
- All three tiers explicit: every fallback announces which tier
landed and prints a re-run hint when not on Tier 1.
- install.ps1 and install.sh both regenerate their tier specs from
the same _BROKEN_EXTRAS array so updates stay in sync.
Side effect: install.ps1 Tier 2 spec previously hardcoded 'mistral'
in its extra list — bug fixed by the refactor (mistral is filtered
out).
# Config
hermes_cli/config.py — DEFAULT_CONFIG.security gains:
- acked_advisories: [] (advisory IDs the user has dismissed)
- allow_lazy_installs: True (security gate for ensure())
No config version bump needed — both keys nest under existing
security: block, and load_config's deep-merge picks up DEFAULT_CONFIG
defaults for users with older configs.
# Tests
tests/hermes_cli/test_security_advisories.py — 23 tests covering:
- detect_compromised matches/non-matches, wildcard frozenset
- ack persistence, idempotence, blank rejection, config-failure path
- banner cache rate limiting + 24h re-banner + ack-stops-banner
- short_banner_lines / full_remediation_text / render_doctor_section /
gateway_log_message
- shipped catalog well-formedness invariant
tests/tools/test_lazy_deps.py — 40 tests covering:
- spec safety: 11 safe parametrized + 18 unsafe parametrized
- allowlist: unknown-feature rejection, namespace.name shape,
every shipped spec passes the safety regex
- security gating: config flag, env var, default, fail-open
- ensure() happy/sad paths: already-satisfied, install success,
pip stderr surfaced on failure, install-succeeds-but-still-missing
- is_available, feature_install_command
Combined: 63 new tests, all passing under scripts/run_tests.sh.
# Validation
- scripts/run_tests.sh tests/hermes_cli/test_security_advisories.py
tests/tools/test_lazy_deps.py → 63/63 passing

- scripts/run_tests.sh tests/hermes_cli/ tests/tools/ →
9191 passed, 8 pre-existing failures (verified on origin/main
before this change)
- bash -n on install.sh and setup-hermes.sh → OK
- py_compile on all modified .py files → OK
- End-to-end smoke test of detect_compromised + render_doctor_section

<https://socket.dev/blog/mini-shai-hulud-worm-pypi>
* build(deps): pin every direct dep to ==X.Y.Z (no ranges)
Companion to the supply-chain advisory work: replace every >=/</~= range
in pyproject.toml's [project.dependencies] and [project.optional-dependencies]
with an exact ==X.Y.Z pin sourced from uv.lock.
Why: ranges allow PyPI to ship a fresh version of any direct dep at any
time without a code review on our side. With ranges, the malicious
mistralai 2.4.6 release would have been pulled by every fresh
'pip install -e .[all]' for the hours between upload and PyPI's
quarantine — exactly the install window we got hit on. Exact pins close
that window: the only way a new package version reaches a user is via
an intentional update on our end.
What the user-facing change is: nothing, behavior-wise. Every package
resolves to the same version it was already resolving to via uv.lock —
the pins just remove the resolver's freedom to pick a different one.
Cost: any user installing Hermes alongside another package that requires
a newer pin gets a resolver conflict. Acceptable for our isolated-venv
install path; documented in the new comment block.
Build-system requires line (setuptools>=61.0) is intentionally left
as a range — pinning the build backend would block fresh pip from
bootstrapping the build on architectures where that exact wheel isn't
available.
mistral extra (mistralai==2.3.0) is pinned but stays out of [all]
(per PR #24205). 'uv lock' regeneration will fail until PyPI restores
mistralai; lockfile regeneration is gated behind that, NOT on every PR.
LAZY_DEPS in tools/lazy_deps.py also moved to exact pins so the lazy-
install pathway can never resolve a different version than the one
declared in pyproject.toml.
Validation:
- Cross-checked all 77 pinned direct deps in pyproject.toml against
uv.lock — every pin matches the resolved version exactly.
- Cross-checked all LAZY_DEPS specs against uv.lock — same.
- 'uv pip install -e .[all] --dry-run' resolves 205 packages cleanly.
- tests/tools/test_lazy_deps.py + tests/hermes_cli/test_security_advisories.py
→ 63/63 passing (every shipped spec passes the safety regex).
- Doctor + TTS + transcription targeted suite → 146/146 passing.
* build(deps): hash-verify transitives via uv.lock; remove unresolvable [mistral] extra
You asked: 'what about the dependencies the dependencies rely on?' —
correctly noting that exact-pinning direct deps in pyproject.toml does
NOT cover the transitive graph. `pip install` and `uv pip install` both
re-resolve transitives fresh from PyPI at install time, so a compromised
transitive (e.g. `httpcore` if it got worm-poisoned tomorrow) would
still hit our users even with every direct dep exact-pinned.
# What this commit fixes
1. **Both real installer scripts now prefer `uv sync --locked` as Tier 0.**
uv.lock records SHA256 hashes for every transitive — a compromised
package with a different hash gets REJECTED. Falls through to the
existing `uv pip install` cascade if the lockfile is missing or
stale, with a loud warning that the fallback path does NOT
hash-verify transitives. Previously only `setup-hermes.sh` (the dev
path) used the lockfile; `scripts/install.sh` and `scripts/install.ps1`
(the paths fresh users actually run) skipped it.
2. **Removed the `[mistral]` extra entirely.** The `mistralai` PyPI
project is fully quarantined right now — every version returns 404,
so any pin we wrote was unresolvable, which broke `uv lock --check`
in CI. Restoration is documented in pyproject.toml as a 5-step
checklist (verify, re-add extra, re-enable in 4 modules, regenerate
lock, optionally re-add to [all]).
3. **Regenerated uv.lock.** 262 packages, mistralai/eval-type-backport/
jsonpath-python pruned. `uv lock --check` now passes.
# Defense-in-depth view
| Layer | Where | Protects against |
|----------------------------|-------------------|-------------------------------------------|
| Exact pins in pyproject | direct deps | new mistralai 2.4.6-style direct compromise |
| uv.lock + `--locked` install | transitive graph | transitive worm injection |
| Tier-0 hash-verified path | install.sh / .ps1 | actually USE the lockfile in fresh installs |
| `uv lock --check` CI gate | every PR | drift between pyproject and lockfile |
| `hermes_cli/security_advisories.py` | runtime | cleanup for users who already got hit |
The exact pinning + hash verification together close the supply-chain
gap. Without the lockfile path, exact pins alone are theater.
# Validation
- `uv lock --check` → passes (262 packages resolved, no drift).
- `bash -n` on install.sh + setup-hermes.sh → OK.
- 209/209 tests passing across new + adjacent test files
(test_lazy_deps.py, test_security_advisories.py, test_doctor.py,
test_tts_mistral.py, test_transcription_tools.py).
- TOML parse OK.
* chore: remove community announcement drafts (PR body covers it)
* build(deps): lazy-install every opt-in backend (anthropic, search, terminal, platforms, dashboard)
Extends the lazy-install framework to cover everything that's not used by
every hermes session. Base install drops from ~60 packages to 45.
Moved out of core dependencies = []:
- anthropic (only when provider=anthropic native, not via aggregators)
- exa-py, firecrawl-py, parallel-web (search backends; only when picked)
- fal-client (image gen; only when picked)
- edge-tts (default TTS but still optional)
New extras in pyproject.toml: [anthropic] [exa] [firecrawl] [parallel-web]
[fal] [edge-tts]. All added to [all].
New LAZY_DEPS entries: provider.anthropic, search.{exa,firecrawl,parallel},
tts.edge, image.fal, memory.hindsight, platform.{telegram,discord,matrix},
terminal.{modal,daytona,vercel}, tool.dashboard.
Each import site now calls ensure() before importing the SDK. Where the
module had a top-level try/except (telegram, discord, fastapi), the
graceful-fallback pattern was extended to lazy-install on first
check_*_requirements() call and re-bind module globals.
Updated test_windows_native_support.py tzdata check from snapshot
(>=2023.3 literal) to invariant (any version + win32 marker).
Validation:
- Base install: 45 packages (was ~60); 6 newly-extracted packages absent
- uv lock --check: passes (262 packages, no drift)
- 209/209 lazy_deps + advisory + doctor + tts/transcription tests passing
- py_compile clean on all 12 modified modules
Replace with for all literal-tuple
membership tests. Set lookup is O(1) vs O(n) for tuple — consistent
micro-optimization across the codebase.
608 instances fixed via `ruff --fix --unsafe-fixes`, 0 remaining.

Problem
-------
`hermes doctor` ran two health checks for Anthropic: a dedicated one
with the correct `x-api-key` + `anthropic-version` headers, and a
generic Bearer-auth one driven by the pluggable `ProviderProfile` for
"anthropic". The generic check called `https://api.anthropic.com/v1/models`
with `Authorization: Bearer ...`, which Anthropic answers with HTTP 404,
producing a noisy duplicate warning even when the dedicated check passed.
Root cause
----------
`hermes_cli/doctor.py:_build_apikey_providers_list` deduplicated profiles
against a `_known_canonical` set built from the static list (Z.AI/GLM,
Kimi, DeepSeek, …). Providers with their own dedicated check above the
generic loop (Anthropic, OpenRouter, Bedrock) were not in that set, so
their profiles were appended and ran a second, broken check.
Fix
---
Add `{"anthropic", "openrouter", "bedrock"}` to the skip set, and
also skip profiles whose aliases match any of those names (e.g.
`claude`, `claude-oauth` → anthropic).
Tests
-----
tests/hermes_cli/test_doctor_dedicated_provider_skip.py:
- test_build_apikey_providers_list_skips_dedicated_check_providers:
asserts the assembled list does not contain anthropic, openrouter,
or bedrock entries.
- test_build_apikey_providers_list_includes_non_dedicated_providers:
sanity guard that legitimate providers (DeepSeek, Z.AI/GLM) survive.
Both confirmed via stash-verify (fail pre-fix with anthropic/openrouter
leaking, pass post-fix).
Fixes#22346
`hermes doctor` ran every connectivity probe sequentially and on a typical
developer laptop spent ~2s of its ~5s wall time inside boto3's EC2
instance-metadata-service lookup (169.254.169.254) — the default
AWS credential chain probes IMDS even when AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK
or AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID is the only legitimate source.
Refactor the API Connectivity section so every probe (OpenRouter,
Anthropic, ~16 static API-key providers + dynamic profiles, AWS
Bedrock) is a pure function returning a structured result, then
fan them out through a ThreadPoolExecutor(max_workers=8). Output
order, glyphs, colours, padding, and issue strings stay byte-for-byte
identical to the sequential implementation; results are gathered
in submission order.
Also disable IMDS for the parallel block by setting
AWS_EC2_METADATA_DISABLED=true on the parent thread before submitting
work (and restoring its prior value in a finally block). Bedrock's
real-API call gets a Config(connect_timeout=5, read_timeout=10,
retries={max_attempts:1}) so a transient regional failure can't pad
the run by 30+ seconds.
Measured impact (5-run medians, 9950X3D):
hermes doctor: 5.07 → 2.16 s (-57%)
Doctor tests: 48 passed (test_doctor.py + test_doctor_command_install.py).
The remaining ~2s of wall is import overhead + a couple of one-off
network calls outside the API Connectivity section (`fetch_models_dev`
provider catalog refresh, Nous OAuth refresh in `Auth Providers`).
Those are next-tier targets, not part of this change.
scripts/install.sh runs 'npx playwright install --with-deps chromium'
on every Linux distro after the npm-install step, which is why browser
tools Just Work on Linux. scripts/install.ps1 never did the equivalent
step, so on native Windows installs check_browser_requirements() in
tools/browser_tool.py would return False (no Chromium under
%LOCALAPPDATA%\ms-playwright) and every browser_* tool got silently
filtered out of the agent's tool schema — no error, no log entry, user
just wondered why the tools didn't exist.
Two-part fix:
1. scripts/install.ps1: after 'npm install' in InstallDir succeeds, run
'npx playwright install chromium'. Resolves npx via the same
execution-policy-aware logic already used for npm (prefer npx.cmd
next to npmExe, fall back to Get-Command). Surfaces a warning +
manual-recovery hint when the install fails, matching install.sh
behaviour for distros.
2. hermes_cli/doctor.py: after the agent-browser check, lazily import
tools.browser_tool and reuse the exact same _chromium_installed()
predicate check_browser_requirements() uses, so the doctor signal
cannot drift from the runtime gate. Skip the check when Camofox /
CDP override / a cloud provider / Lightpanda is configured (those
bypass local Chromium). On missing Chromium, the hint is
platform-correct: '--with-deps' on POSIX, plain 'install chromium'
on win32.
Verified on Windows 10:
- 'npx playwright install chromium' completes successfully, drops
Chrome Headless Shell under %LOCALAPPDATA%\ms-playwright
- check_browser_requirements() flips from False -> True
- 'hermes doctor' now prints either '✓ Playwright Chromium (browser
engine)' or '⚠ Playwright Chromium not installed' + fix command
- tests/hermes_cli/test_doctor.py: 38/38 pass
- tests/tools/test_browser_chromium_check.py: 16/16 pass
Closes the last Python-on-Windows UTF-8 exposure by making every
text-mode open() call explicit about its encoding.
Before: on Windows, bare open(path, 'r') defaults to the system
locale encoding (cp1252 on US-locale installs). That means reading
any config/yaml/markdown/json file with non-ASCII content either
crashes with UnicodeDecodeError or silently mis-decodes bytes.
After: all 89 affected call sites in production code now pass
encoding='utf-8' explicitly. Works identically on every platform
and every locale, no surprise behavior.
Mechanical sweep via:
ruff check --preview --extend-select PLW1514 --unsafe-fixes --fix --exclude 'tests,venv,.venv,node_modules,website,optional-skills, skills,tinker-atropos,plugins' .
All 89 fixes have the same shape: open(x) or open(x, mode) became
open(x, encoding='utf-8') or open(x, mode, encoding='utf-8'). Nothing
else changed. Every modified file still parses and the Windows/sandbox
test suite is still green (85 passed, 14 skipped, 0 failed across
tests/tools/test_code_execution_windows_env.py +
tests/tools/test_code_execution_modes.py + tests/tools/test_env_passthrough.py +
tests/test_hermes_bootstrap.py).
Scope notes:
- tests/ excluded: test fixtures can use locale encoding intentionally
(exercising edge cases). If we want to tighten tests later that's
a separate PR.
- plugins/ excluded: plugin-specific conventions may differ; plugin
authors own their code.
- optional-skills/ and skills/ excluded: skill scripts are user-authored
and we don't want to mass-edit them.
- website/ and tinker-atropos/ excluded: vendored / generated content.
46 files touched, 89 +/- lines (symmetric replacement). No behavior
change on POSIX or on Windows when the file is ASCII; bug fix on
Windows when the file contains non-ASCII.
Second pass on native Windows support, driven by a systematic audit across
five areas: POSIX-only primitives (signal.SIGKILL/SIGHUP/SIGPIPE, os.WNOHANG,
os.setsid), path translation bugs (/c/Users → C:\Users), subprocess patterns
(npm.cmd batch shims, start_new_session no-op on Windows), subsystem health
(cron, gateway daemon, update flow), and module-level import guards.
Every change is platform-gated — POSIX (Linux/macOS) behaviour is preserved
bit-identical. Explicit "do no harm" test: test_posix_path_preserved_on_linux,
test_posix_noop, test_windows_detach_popen_kwargs_is_posix_equivalent_on_posix.
## New module
- hermes_cli/_subprocess_compat.py — shared helpers (resolve_node_command,
windows_detach_flags, windows_hide_flags, windows_detach_popen_kwargs).
All no-ops on non-Windows.
## CRITICAL fixes (would crash or silently break on Windows)
- tui_gateway/entry.py: SIGPIPE/SIGHUP referenced at module top level would
AttributeError on import on Windows, breaking `hermes --tui` entirely (it
spawns this module as a subprocess). Guard each signal.signal() call with
hasattr() and add SIGBREAK as Windows' SIGHUP equivalent.
- hermes_cli/kanban_db.py: os.waitpid(-1, os.WNOHANG) in dispatcher tick was
unguarded. os.WNOHANG doesn't exist on Windows. Gate the whole reap loop
behind `os.name != "nt"` — Windows has no zombies anyway.
- tools/code_execution_tool.py: AF_UNIX socket for execute_code RPC fails on
most Windows builds. Fall back to loopback TCP (AF_INET on 127.0.0.1:0
ephemeral port) when _IS_WINDOWS. HERMES_RPC_SOCKET env var now accepts
either a filesystem path (POSIX) or `tcp://127.0.0.1:<port>` (Windows).
Generated sandbox client parses both.
- cron/scheduler.py: `argv = ["/bin/bash", str(path)]` hardcoded. Use
shutil.which("bash") so Windows (Git Bash via MinGit) works, with a
readable error when bash is genuinely absent.
- 6 bare npm/npx spawn sites: tools_config.py x2, doctor.py, whatsapp.py
(npm install + node version probe), browser_tool.py x2. On Windows npm
is npm.cmd / npx is npx.cmd (batch shims); subprocess.Popen(["npm", ...])
fails with WinError 193. shutil.which(...) returns the absolute .cmd
path which CreateProcessW accepts because the extension routes through
cmd.exe /c. POSIX behaviour unchanged (shutil.which still returns the
same path subprocess would resolve itself).
## HIGH fixes (silent misbehaviour on Windows)
- tools/environments/local.py get_temp_dir: hardcoded /tmp returned on
Windows meant `_cwd_file = "/tmp/hermes-cwd-*.txt"`, which bash wrote
via MSYS2's virtual /tmp but native Python couldn't open. Result: cwd
tracking silently broken — `cd` in terminal tool did nothing. Windows
branch now returns `%HERMES_HOME%/cache/terminal` with forward slashes
(works in both bash and Python, guaranteed no spaces).
- tools/environments/local.py _make_run_env PATH injection: `/usr/bin not
in split(":")` heuristic mangles Windows PATH (";" separator). Gate
the injection behind `not _IS_WINDOWS`.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py launch_detached_profile_gateway_restart: outer
Popen + watcher-script Popen both used start_new_session=True, which
Windows silently ignores. Watcher stayed attached to CLI's console,
died when user closed terminal after `hermes update`, left gateway
stale. Now branches through windows_detach_popen_kwargs() helper
(CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP | DETACHED_PROCESS | CREATE_NO_WINDOW on
Windows, start_new_session=True on POSIX — identical to main).
## MEDIUM fixes
- gateway/run.py /restart and /update handlers: hardcoded bash/setsid
chain crashes on Windows when user triggers /update in-gateway. Now
has sys.platform=="win32" branch using sys.executable + a tiny
Python watcher with proper detach flags. POSIX path is unchanged.
- cli.py _git_repo_root: Git on Windows sometimes returns /c/Users/...
style paths that break subprocess.Popen(cwd=...) and Path().resolve().
Added _normalize_git_bash_path() helper that translates /c/Users,
/cygdrive/c, /mnt/c variants to native C:\Users form. POSIX no-op.
_git_repo_root() now routes every result through it.
- cli.py worktree .worktreeinclude: os.symlink on directories failed
hard on Windows (requires admin or Developer Mode). Falls back to
shutil.copytree with a warning log.
## Tests
- 29 new tests in tests/tools/test_windows_native_support.py covering:
subprocess_compat helpers, TUI entry signal guards, kanban waitpid
guard, code_execution TCP fallback source-level invariants, cron bash
resolution, npm/npx bare-spawn lint per-file, local env Windows temp
dir, PATH injection gating, git bash path normalization, symlink
fallback, gateway detached watcher flags.
- One existing test assertion adjusted in test_browser_homebrew_paths:
it compared captured Popen argv to the BARE `"npx"` literal; after the
shutil.which() change argv[0] is the absolute path. New assertion
checks the shape (two items, second is `agent-browser`) rather than
the exact first-item string. Behaviour unchanged; test was too strict.
All 56 tests pass on Linux (30 from previous commits + 26 new).
267 tests from the affected files/dirs (browser, code_exec, local_env,
process_registry, kanban_db, windows_compat) all pass — zero regressions.
tests/hermes_cli/ (3909 pass) and tests/gateway/ (5021 pass) unchanged;
all pre-existing test failures confirmed unrelated via `git stash` re-run.
## What's still deferred (LOW priority)
- Visible cmd-window flashes on short-lived console apps (~14 sites) —
cosmetic, needs a follow-up pass once we have user reports.
- agent/file_safety.py POSIX-only security deny patterns — separate
hardening task.
- tools/process_registry.py returning "/tmp" as fallback — theoretical;
reachable only when all env-var candidates fail.
* docs(providers): add model-provider-plugin authoring guide + fix stale refs
New docs:
- website/docs/developer-guide/model-provider-plugin.md — full authoring
guide (directory layout, minimal example, ProviderProfile fields,
overridable hooks, user overrides, api_mode selection, auth types,
testing, pip distribution)
- Wired into website/sidebars.ts under 'Extending'
- Cross-references added in:
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md (tip block)
- developer-guide/adding-providers.md
- developer-guide/provider-runtime.md
User guide:
- user-guide/features/plugins.md: Plugin types table grows from 3 to 4
with 'Model providers' row
Stale comment cleanup (providers/*.py → plugins/model-providers/<name>/):
- hermes_cli/main.py:_is_profile_api_key_provider docstring
- hermes_cli/doctor.py:_build_apikey_providers_list docstring
- hermes_cli/auth.py: PROVIDER_REGISTRY + alias auto-extension comments
- hermes_cli/models.py: CANONICAL_PROVIDERS auto-extension comment
AGENTS.md:
- Project-structure tree: added plugins/model-providers/ row
- New section: 'Model-provider plugins' explaining discovery, override
semantics, PluginManager integration, kind auto-coerce heuristic
Verified: docusaurus build succeeds, new page renders, all 3 cross-links
resolve. 347/347 targeted tests pass (tests/providers/,
tests/hermes_cli/test_plugins.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_runtime_provider_resolution.py,
tests/run_agent/test_provider_parity.py).
* docs(plugins): add 'pluggable interfaces at a glance' maps to plugins.md + build-a-hermes-plugin
Devs landing on either the user-guide plugin page or the build-a-plugin
guide now get an upfront table of every distinct pluggable surface with
a link to the right authoring doc. Previously they'd have to read the
full general-plugin guide to discover that model providers / platforms
/ memory / context engines are separate systems.
user-guide/features/plugins.md:
- New 'Pluggable interfaces — where to go for each' section below the
existing 4-kinds table
- 10 rows covering every register_* surface (tool, hook, slash command,
CLI subcommand, skill, model provider, platform, memory, context
engine, image-gen)
- Explicit note: TTS/STT are NOT plugin-extensible yet — documented
with a pointer to the current config.yaml 'command providers' pattern
and a note that register_tts_provider()/register_stt_provider() may
come later
guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md:
- New :::info 'Not sure which guide you need?' map at the top so devs
see all pluggable interfaces before investing in this 737-line
general-plugin walkthrough
- Existing bottom :::tip expanded to include platform adapters alongside
model/memory/context plugins
Verified:
- All 8 cross-doc links in the new plugins.md table resolve in a
docusaurus build (SUCCESS, no new broken links)
- TTS link corrected (features/voice → features/tts; latter exists)
- Pre-existing broken links/anchors (cron-script-only, llms.txt,
adding-platform-adapters#step-by-step-checklist) are unchanged
* docs(plugins): correct TTS/STT pluggability \u2014 they ARE plugins (command-providers)
Previous commit incorrectly said TTS/STT 'aren't plugin-extensible'. They
are, via the config-driven command-provider pattern \u2014 any CLI that reads
text and writes audio (or vice versa for STT) is automatically a plugin
with zero Python. The tts.md docs cover this extensively and I missed it.
plugins.md:
- TTS row: 'Config-driven (not a Python plugin)', points at
tts.md#custom-command-providers
- STT row: points at tts.md#voice-message-transcription-stt (STT docs
live in tts.md despite the filename)
- Expanded note: TTS/STT use config-driven shell-command templates as
their plugin surface (full tts.providers.<name> registry for TTS;
HERMES_LOCAL_STT_COMMAND escape hatch for STT)
- Any CLI that reads/writes files is automatically a plugin \u2014 no Python
register_* API needed
- Future register_tts_provider()/register_stt_provider() hooks mentioned
as nice-to-have for SDK/streaming cases, not as the primary story
build-a-hermes-plugin.md:
- Same map update: TTS/STT rows explicit, footer note corrected
Verified:
- tts.md anchors (custom-command-providers, voice-message-transcription-stt)
exist and resolve in docusaurus build (SUCCESS, no new broken links)
* docs(plugins): expand pluggable interfaces table with MCP / event hooks / shell hooks / skill taps
Broadened the scope beyond Python register_* hooks. Hermes has MULTIPLE
plugin-style extension surfaces; they're now all in one table instead of
being scattered across feature docs.
Added rows for:
- **MCP servers** — config.yaml mcp_servers.<name> auto-registers external
tools from any MCP server. Huge extensibility surface, previously not
linked from the plugin map.
- **Gateway event hooks** — drop HOOK.yaml + handler.py into
~/.hermes/hooks/<name>/ to fire on gateway:startup, session:*, agent:*,
command:* events. Separate from Python plugin hooks.
- **Shell hooks** — hooks: block in config.yaml runs shell commands on
events (notifications, auditing, etc.).
- **Skill sources (taps)** — hermes skills tap add <repo> to pull in new
skill registries beyond the built-in sources.
Both docs updated:
- user-guide/features/plugins.md: table column renamed to 'How' (mixes
Python API + config-driven + drop-in-dir surfaces accurately)
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md: :::info map at top mirrors the new
surfaces with a forward-link to the consolidated table
Note block rewritten: instead of singling out TTS/STT as the 'different
style' exception, now honestly describes that Hermes deliberately
supports three plugin styles — Python APIs, config-driven commands, and
drop-in manifest directories — and devs should pick the one that fits
their integration.
Not included (considered and rejected):
- Transport layer (register_transport) — internal, not user-facing
- Tool-call parsers — internal, VLLM phase-2 thing
- Cloud browser providers — hardcoded registry, not drop-in yet
- Terminal backends — hardcoded if/elif, not drop-in yet
- Skill sources (the ABC) — hardcoded list, only taps are user-extensible
Verified:
- All 5 new anchors resolve (gateway-event-hooks, shell-hooks, skills-hub,
custom-command-providers, voice-message-transcription-stt)
- Docusaurus build SUCCESS, zero new broken links
- Same 3 pre-existing broken links on main (cron-script-only, llms.txt,
adding-platform-adapters#step-by-step-checklist)
* docs(plugins): cover every pluggable surface in both the overview and how-to
Both plugins.md and build-a-hermes-plugin.md now cover every extension
surface end-to-end \u2014 general plugin APIs, specialized plugin types,
config-driven surfaces \u2014 with concrete authoring patterns for each.
plugins.md:
- 'What plugins can do' table grows from 9 rows (general ctx.register_*
only) to 14 rows covering register_platform, register_image_gen_provider,
register_context_engine, MemoryProvider subclass, register_provider
(model). Each row links to its full authoring guide.
- New 'Plugin sub-categories' section under Plugin Discovery explains
how plugins/platforms/, plugins/image_gen/, plugins/memory/,
plugins/context_engine/, plugins/model-providers/ are routed to
different loaders \u2014 PluginManager vs the per-category own-loader
systems.
- Explicit mention of user-override semantics at
~/.hermes/plugins/model-providers/ and ~/.hermes/plugins/memory/.
build-a-hermes-plugin.md:
- New '## Specialized plugin types' section (5 sub-sections):
- Model provider plugins \u2014 ProviderProfile + plugin.yaml example,
auto-wiring summary, link to full guide
- Platform plugins \u2014 BasePlatformAdapter + register_platform() skeleton
- Memory provider plugins \u2014 MemoryProvider subclass example
- Context engine plugins \u2014 ContextEngine subclass example
- Image-generation backends \u2014 ImageGenProvider + kind: backend example
- New '## Non-Python extension surfaces' section (5 sub-sections):
- MCP servers \u2014 config.yaml mcp_servers.<name> example
- Gateway event hooks \u2014 HOOK.yaml + handler.py example
- Shell hooks \u2014 hooks: block in config.yaml example
- Skill sources (taps) \u2014 hermes skills tap add example
- TTS / STT command templates \u2014 tts.providers.<name> with type: command
- Distribute via pip / NixOS promoted from ### to ## (they were orphaned
after the reorganization)
Each specialized / non-Python section has a concrete, copy-pasteable
example plus a 'Full guide:' link to the authoritative doc. Devs arriving
at the build-a-hermes-plugin guide now see every extension surface at
their disposal, not just the general tool/hook/slash-command surface.
Verified:
- Docusaurus build SUCCESS, zero new broken links
- All new cross-links (developer-guide/model-provider-plugin,
adding-platform-adapters, memory-provider-plugin, context-engine-plugin,
user-guide/features/mcp, skills#skills-hub, hooks#gateway-event-hooks,
hooks#shell-hooks, tts#custom-command-providers,
tts#voice-message-transcription-stt) resolve
- Same 3 pre-existing broken links on main (cron-script-only, llms.txt,
adding-platform-adapters#step-by-step-checklist)
* docs(plugins): fix opt-in inconsistency — not every plugin is gated
The 'Every plugin is disabled by default' statement was wrong. Several
plugin categories intentionally bypass plugins.enabled:
- Bundled platform plugins (IRC, Teams) auto-load so shipped gateway
channels are available out of the box. Activation per channel is via
gateway.platforms.<name>.enabled.
- Bundled backends (plugins/image_gen/*) auto-load so the default
backend 'just works'. Selection via <category>.provider config.
- Memory providers are all discovered; one is active via memory.provider.
- Context engines are all discovered; one is active via context.engine.
- Model providers: all 33 discovered at first get_provider_profile();
user picks via --provider / config.
The plugins.enabled allow-list specifically gates:
- Standalone plugins (general tools/hooks/slash commands)
- User-installed backends
- User-installed platforms (third-party gateway adapters)
- Pip entry-point backends
Which matches the actual code in hermes_cli/plugins.py:737 where the
bundled+backend/platform check bypasses the allow-list.
Rewrote '## Plugins are opt-in' to:
- Retitle to 'Plugins are opt-in (with a few exceptions)'
- Narrow opening claim to 'General plugins and user-installed backends
are disabled by default'
- Added 'What the allow-list does NOT gate' subsection with a full
table of which bypass the gate and how they're activated instead
- Fixed migration section wording (bundled platform/backend plugins
never needed grandfathering)
Verified: docusaurus build SUCCESS, zero new broken links.
Introduces providers/ package — single source of truth for every
inference provider. Adding a simple api-key provider now requires one
providers/<name>.py file with zero edits anywhere else.
What this PR ships:
- providers/ package (ProviderProfile ABC + 33 profiles across 4 api_modes)
- ProviderProfile declarative fields: name, api_mode, aliases, display_name,
env_vars, base_url, models_url, auth_type, fallback_models, hostname,
default_headers, fixed_temperature, default_max_tokens, default_aux_model
- 4 overridable hooks: prepare_messages, build_extra_body,
build_api_kwargs_extras, fetch_models
- chat_completions.build_kwargs: profile path via _build_kwargs_from_profile,
legacy flag path retained for lmstudio/tencent-tokenhub (which have
session-aware reasoning probing that doesn't map cleanly to hooks yet)
- run_agent.py: profile path for all registered providers; legacy path
variable scoping fixed (all flags defined before branching)
- Auto-wires: auth.PROVIDER_REGISTRY, models.CANONICAL_PROVIDERS,
doctor health checks, config.OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, model_metadata._URL_TO_PROVIDER
- GeminiProfile: thinking_config translation (native + openai-compat nested)
- New tests/providers/ (79 tests covering profile declarations, transport
parity, hook overrides, e2e kwargs assembly)
Deltas vs original PR (salvaged onto current main):
- Added profiles: alibaba-coding-plan, azure-foundry, minimax-oauth
(were added to main since original PR)
- Skipped profiles: lmstudio, tencent-tokenhub stay on legacy path (their
reasoning_effort probing has no clean hook equivalent yet)
- Removed lmstudio alias from custom profile (it's a separate provider now)
- Skipped openrouter/custom from PROVIDER_REGISTRY auto-extension
(resolve_provider special-cases them; adding breaks runtime resolution)
- runtime_provider: profile.api_mode only as fallback when URL detection
finds nothing (was breaking minimax /v1 override)
- Preserved main's legacy-path improvements: deepseek reasoning_content
preserve, gemini Gemma skip, OpenRouter response caching, Anthropic 1M
beta recovery, etc.
- Kept agent/copilot_acp_client.py in place (rejected PR's relocation —
main has 7 fixes landed since; relocation would revert them)
- _API_KEY_PROVIDER_AUX_MODELS alias kept for backward compat with existing
test imports

Closes#14418
hermes doctor showed 'No GITHUB_TOKEN (60 req/hr)' warning even when
users had authenticated via gh auth login. Now falls back to
gh auth status --json authenticated when GITHUB_TOKEN and GH_TOKEN
are both unset.
Fixes#16115
When agent-browser is globally installed via 'npm install -g agent-browser'
but not present in the local node_modules, doctor falsely warns that it's
not installed. Add shutil.which('agent-browser') as a fallback check after
the local path check.
Closes#15951
MiniMax China (api.minimaxi.com) does not expose a /v1/models endpoint.
The doctor command was probing it and reporting HTTP 404 as a warning,
even though the API works correctly for chat completions.
Set supports_health_check=False for MiniMax CN so doctor shows
"(key configured)" instead of the false 404 warning.
Refs #12768, #13757
Path.read_text() uses the system locale by default. On Windows CN/JP/KR
locales (GBK/CP932/CP949), reading a UTF-8 .env raises UnicodeDecodeError
as soon as it contains any non-ASCII byte (e.g. an em dash).
Pin encoding="utf-8" on every .env read in hermes_cli to match how the
rest of the codebase (load_dotenv at doctor.py:26) already decodes it.
Adds a regression test that monkeypatches Path.read_text to simulate a
GBK locale and asserts 'hermes doctor' no longer raises.
Refs #18637
Keep context-1m-2025-08-07 in OAuth requests by default so 1M-capable
subscriptions retain full context. When Anthropic rejects a request with
400 'long context beta is not yet available for this subscription',
disable the beta for the rest of the session, rebuild the client, and
retry once.
Addresses #17680 (thanks @JayGwod for the clean reproduction) without
forcing every OAuth user off the 1M context window.
Changes:
- agent/error_classifier.py: new FailoverReason.oauth_long_context_beta_forbidden;
pattern matches 400 + 'long context beta' + 'not yet available'. Narrow
enough that the existing 429 tier-gate pattern keeps its own reason.
- agent/anthropic_adapter.py: _common_betas_for_base_url,
build_anthropic_client, build_anthropic_kwargs gain drop_context_1m_beta
kwarg. Default=False (1M stays). OAuth OAUTH_ONLY_BETAS unchanged.
- agent/transports/anthropic.py: build_kwargs forwards the flag.
- run_agent.py: self._oauth_1m_beta_disabled flag, retry-once guard,
recovery branch next to the image-shrink path. _rebuild_anthropic_client
honors the flag. The main build_kwargs call site threads it through for
fast-mode extra_headers.
- hermes_cli/doctor.py, hermes_cli/models.py: sibling OAuth /v1/models
probes get the same reactive retry — previously they'd falsely report
the Anthropic API as unreachable for affected subscriptions.
Tests: 2190 tests/agent/ + 94 adjacent integration tests pass. New unit
tests cover the classifier pattern (including the collision guard against
the 429 tier-gate) and the drop_context_1m_beta adapter behavior (default
keeps 1M, flag strips only 1M while preserving every other beta).
Adds Vercel Sandbox as a supported Hermes terminal backend alongside
existing providers (Local, Docker, Modal, SSH, Daytona, Singularity).
Uses the Vercel Python SDK to create/manage cloud microVMs, supports
snapshot-based filesystem persistence keyed by task_id, and integrates
with the existing BaseEnvironment shell contract and FileSyncManager
for credential/skill syncing.
Based on #17127 by @scotttrinh, cherry-picked onto current main.
Validate configured providers against both Hermes runtime provider ids and
catalog-normalized provider ids. This keeps providers like ai-gateway from
being rejected after catalog resolution maps them to models.dev ids.
Keep credential checks and vendor-slug warnings anchored to the runtime id
so doctor reports actionable provider names in follow-up diagnostics.
When openai-codex tokens expire or the ChatGPT account hits a 429
window, the pool entry gets marked STATUS_EXHAUSTED with
last_error_reset_at many hours in the future. If the user then runs
`hermes model` / `hermes auth openai-codex` to reauth, fresh tokens
land in ~/.hermes/auth.json but the pool entry stayed frozen behind
its reset_at — every request kept failing with 'credential pool: no
available entries (all exhausted or empty)' until the original window
elapsed.
_available_entries() already had auth.json/credentials-file resync
branches for anthropic/claude_code and nous/device_code; openai-codex
was missing. Added _sync_codex_entry_from_auth_store() mirroring the
nous version (reads state["tokens"][{access,refresh}_token] +
state["last_refresh"]) and wired it into the exhausted-entry resync
loop.
Also softens the 'codex CLI not found' doctor warning — native
device-code OAuth does not require the Codex binary, only
importing existing Codex CLI tokens does. Downgraded to an info line.
Reported on Discord by p1aceho1der: Codex stalled indefinitely after
a rate-limit reset, reauth didn't help, and doctor falsely warned
that the codex CLI was required.

- Aliases: tencent, tokenhub, tencent-cloud, tencentmaas
- openai_chat transport with is_tokenhub branch for top-level
reasoning_effort (Hy3 is a reasoning model)
- tencent/hy3-preview:free added to OpenRouter curated list
- 60+ tests (provider registry, aliases, runtime resolution,
credentials, model catalog, URL mapping, context length)

Salvaged from PR #16860 onto current main (resolved conflicts with
#16935 Azure Anthropic env-var hint tests and the --provider choices=
list removal in chat_parser).
Adds a first-class 'stepfun' API-key provider surfaced as Step Plan:
- Support Step Plan setup for both International and China regions
- Discover Step Plan models live from /step_plan/v1/models, with a
small coding-focused fallback catalog when discovery is unavailable
- Thread StepFun through provider metadata, setup persistence, status
and doctor output, auxiliary routing, and model normalization
- Add tests for provider resolution, model validation, metadata
mapping, and StepFun region/model persistence

Follow-ups after salvaging xiaoqiang243's kimi-for-coding patches:
- KIMI_CODE_BASE_URL: drop trailing /v1 (was /coding/v1).
The /coding endpoint speaks Anthropic Messages, and the Anthropic SDK
appends /v1/messages internally. /coding/v1 + SDK suffix produced
/coding/v1/v1/messages (a 404). /coding + SDK suffix now yields
/coding/v1/messages correctly.
- kimi-coding ProviderConfig: keep legacy default api.moonshot.ai/v1 so
non-sk-kimi- moonshot keys still authenticate. sk-kimi- keys are
already redirected to api.kimi.com/coding via _resolve_kimi_base_url.
- doctor.py: update Kimi UA to claude-code/0.1.0 (was KimiCLI/1.30.0)
and rewrite /coding base URLs to /coding/v1 for the /models health
check (Anthropic surface has no /models).
- test_kimi_env_vars: accept KIMI_CODING_API_KEY as a secondary env var.
E2E verified:
sk-kimi-<key> → https://api.kimi.com/coding/v1/messages (Anthropic)
sk-<legacy> → https://api.moonshot.ai/v1/chat/completions (OpenAI)
UA: claude-code/0.1.0, x-api-key: <sk-kimi-*>
Follow-up for #3171 cherry-pick — the contributor's validation block
called get_provider_credentials() which doesn't exist on current main.
Replaces it with get_auth_status() limited to API-key providers in
PROVIDER_REGISTRY so providers without a registry entry (openrouter,
anthropic, custom) don't trigger false 'not authenticated' failures.
Also runs the provider name through resolve_provider() so aliases like
'glm'/'moonshot' validate correctly.
Adds StefanIsMe to AUTHOR_MAP.
Discovered via real user session where hermes doctor missed two failures:
1. OpenRouter HTTP 402 (credits exhausted) fell through to the generic
'else' branch — printed yellow but never added to issues, so
'hermes doctor --fix' couldn't surface it. User had to manually
find and run 'hermes config set model.provider minimax'.
2. A provider value 'main' (from a stale gateway state or config
corruption) caused 'Unknown provider main' at runtime. Doctor
checked that config.yaml existed but never validated that
model.provider or model.default contained sane values.
Changes:
- OpenRouter health-check now catches 402 (out of credits) and 429
(rate limited) separately, prints a red X, and adds a fixable
issue with the exact command to run.
- New config validation after the config.yaml existence check:
* Validates model.provider against PROVIDER_REGISTRY. Unknown
provider names fail red with the full valid list.
* Warns when model.default uses a provider-prefixed name (e.g.
'anthropic/claude-opus-4') but provider is not openrouter/custom.
* Warns when model.provider is configured but no API key or
base_url is set for it.
Both fixes are fully general — they catch classes of errors, not
hardcoded values specific to one user's setup.
Error messages that tell users to install optional extras now use
{sys.executable} -m pip install ... instead of a bare 'pip install
hermes-agent[extra]' string. Under the curl installer, bare 'pip'
resolves to system pip, which either fails with PEP 668
externally-managed-environment or installs into the wrong Python.
Affects: hermes dashboard, hermes web server startup, mcp_serve,
hermes doctor Bedrock check, CLI voice mode, voice_mode tool runtime
error, Discord voice-channel join failure message.
Follow-up on the native NVIDIA NIM provider salvage. The original PR wired
PROVIDER_REGISTRY + HERMES_OVERLAYS correctly but missed several touchpoints
required for full parity with other OpenAI-compatible providers (xai,
huggingface, deepseek, zai).
Gaps closed:
- hermes_cli/main.py:
- Add 'nvidia' to the _model_flow_api_key_provider dispatch tuple so
selecting 'NVIDIA NIM' in `hermes model` actually runs the api-key
provider flow (previously fell through silently).
- Add 'nvidia' to `hermes chat --provider` argparse choices so the
documented test command (`hermes chat --provider nvidia --model ...`)
parses successfully.
- hermes_cli/config.py: Register NVIDIA_API_KEY and NVIDIA_BASE_URL in
OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS so setup wizard can prompt for them and they're
auto-added to the subprocess env blocklist.
- hermes_cli/doctor.py: Add NVIDIA NIM row to `_apikey_providers` so
`hermes doctor` probes https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1/models.
- hermes_cli/dump.py: Add NVIDIA_API_KEY → 'nvidia' mapping for
`hermes dump` credential masking.
- tests/tools/test_local_env_blocklist.py: Extend registry_vars fixture
with NVIDIA_API_KEY to verify it's blocked from leaking into subprocesses.
- agent/model_metadata.py: Add 'nemotron' → 131072 context-length entry
so all Nemotron variants get 128K context via substring match (rather
than falling back to MINIMUM_CONTEXT_LENGTH).
- hermes_cli/models.py: Fix hallucinated model ID
'nvidia/nemotron-3-nano-8b-a4b' → 'nvidia/nemotron-3-nano-30b-a3b'
(verified against live integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1/models catalog).
Expand curated list from 5 to 9 agentic models mapping to OpenRouter
defaults per provider-guide convention: add qwen3.5-397b-a17b,
deepseek-v3.2, llama-3.3-nemotron-super-49b-v1.5, gpt-oss-120b.
- cli-config.yaml.example: Document 'nvidia' provider option.
- scripts/release.py: Map asurla@nvidia.com → anniesurla in AUTHOR_MAP
for CI attribution.
E2E verified: `hermes chat --provider nvidia ...` now reaches NVIDIA's
endpoint (returns 401 with bogus key instead of argparse error);
`hermes doctor` detects NVIDIA NIM when NVIDIA_API_KEY is set.
OpenCode Go does not expose a shared /models endpoint, so the doctor
probe was always failing and producing a false warning. Set the default
URL to None and disable the health check for this provider.
hermes doctor now checks whether the ~/.local/bin/hermes symlink exists
and points to the correct venv entry point. With --fix, it creates or
repairs the symlink automatically.
Covers:
- Missing symlink at ~/.local/bin/hermes (or $PREFIX/bin on Termux)
- Symlink pointing to wrong target
- Missing venv entry point (venv/bin/hermes or .venv/bin/hermes)
- PATH warning when ~/.local/bin is not on PATH
- Skipped on Windows (different mechanism)
Addresses user report: 'python -m hermes_cli.main doesn't have an option
to fix the local bin/install'
10 new tests covering all scenarios.
Adds Arcee AI as a standard direct provider (ARCEEAI_API_KEY) with
Trinity models: trinity-large-thinking, trinity-large-preview, trinity-mini.
Standard OpenAI-compatible provider checklist: auth.py, config.py,
models.py, main.py, providers.py, doctor.py, model_normalize.py,
model_metadata.py, setup.py, trajectory_compressor.py.
Based on PR #9274 by arthurbr11, simplified to a standard direct
provider without dual-endpoint OpenRouter routing.
