refactor: remove dead code — 1,784 lines across 77 files ( #9180 )
...
Deep scan with vulture, pyflakes, and manual cross-referencing identified:
- 41 dead functions/methods (zero callers in production)
- 7 production-dead functions (only test callers, tests deleted)
- 5 dead constants/variables
- ~35 unused imports across agent/, hermes_cli/, tools/, gateway/
Categories of dead code removed:
- Refactoring leftovers: _set_default_model, _setup_copilot_reasoning_selection,
rebuild_lookups, clear_session_context, get_logs_dir, clear_session
- Unused API surface: search_models_dev, get_pricing, skills_categories,
get_read_files_summary, clear_read_tracker, menu_labels, get_spinner_list
- Dead compatibility wrappers: schedule_cronjob, list_cronjobs, remove_cronjob
- Stale debug helpers: get_debug_session_info copies in 4 tool files
(centralized version in debug_helpers.py already exists)
- Dead gateway methods: send_emote, send_notice (matrix), send_reaction
(bluebubbles), _normalize_inbound_text (feishu), fetch_room_history
(matrix), _start_typing_indicator (signal), parse_feishu_post_content
- Dead constants: NOUS_API_BASE_URL, SKILLS_TOOL_DESCRIPTION,
FILE_TOOLS, VALID_ASPECT_RATIOS, MEMORY_DIR
- Unused UI code: _interactive_provider_selection,
_interactive_model_selection (superseded by prompt_toolkit picker)
Test suite verified: 609 tests covering affected files all pass.
Tests for removed functions deleted. Tests using removed utilities
(clear_read_tracker, MEMORY_DIR) updated to use internal APIs directly.

feat(cli): show random tip on new session start ( #8225 )
...
Add a 'tip of the day' feature that displays a random one-liner about
Hermes Agent features on every new session — CLI startup, /clear, /new,
and gateway /new across all messaging platforms.
- New hermes_cli/tips.py module with 210 curated tips covering slash
commands, keybindings, CLI flags, config options, tools, gateway
platforms, profiles, sessions, memory, skills, cron, voice, security,
and more
- CLI: tips display in skin-aware dim gold color after the welcome line
- Gateway: tips append to the /new and /reset response on all platforms
- Fully wrapped in try/except — tips are non-critical and never break
startup or reset
Display format (CLI):
✦ Tip: /btw <question> asks a quick side question without tools or history.
Display format (gateway):
✨ Session reset! Starting fresh.
✦ Tip: hermes -c resumes your most recent CLI session.
