The salvaged guard from #52276 only fired when a system prompt was
present in messages[] (system is not None after extraction). The live
repro of #52160 is the auto path: the system prompt is passed outside
messages[], so after the second compaction messages[0] is the
assistant-role summary with system=None — and the guard never ran.
Make _ensure_leading_user_turn unconditional, exactly mirroring the
Bedrock Converse adapter ('Converse requires the first message to be
from the user' — convert_messages_to_converse). Add a regression test
building the exact post-double-compaction shape (no system in
messages, messages[0]=assistant summary) asserting the converted
payload leads with a user turn, and update existing fixtures that
started with a bare assistant message to locate roles instead of
indexing result[0].
Anthropic extracts the system prompt into a separate `system` field and
requires messages[0] to be role="user"; a leading assistant turn is rejected
with HTTP 400. After a second context compaction the only surviving leading
anchor is the system prompt, so a summary/handoff message emitted as
role="assistant" becomes the first messages entry once the system prompt is
extracted. Anthropic reports this with a misleading error —
`messages.N: tool_use ids were found without tool_result blocks immediately
after: toolu_...` — even when every tool_use/tool_result pair is adjacent and
matched; the real structural defect is the leading assistant role (#52160).
This is engine-agnostic: it fires for any producer of a leading-assistant
transcript (built-in compressor, the DAG/LCM context engine, session
truncation), unlike the compressor-scoped fix in #52167. The native Bedrock
Converse adapter already guards the same invariant
(convert_messages_to_converse); this mirrors it for the native Anthropic path.
Add _ensure_leading_user_turn() to the convert_messages_to_anthropic
post-processing chain, scoped to the system-extracted case (the production
trigger) so bare assistant-only unit fixtures are unaffected. Adds regression
tests (leading-assistant, leading-assistant-with-adjacent-tool_use, and a
no-op negative control).
Follow-up widening for salvaged PRs #67115, #67685, #67620:
- _PROVIDER_MODELS: add kimi-k3 atop kimi-coding / moonshot / opencode-go
curated lists (kimi-coding-cn covered by cherry-picked #67620)
- setup.py _DEFAULT_PROVIDER_MODELS: kimi-k3 for kimi-coding(-cn) + opencode-go
- model_metadata: align DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS kimi-k3 entry to 1,048,576
(matches endpoint-scoped override, models.dev, and OpenRouter live metadata)
- anthropic_adapter: classify the bare Coding Plan slug 'k3' (and k3.x/k3-*)
as Kimi family so adaptive thinking applies on proxied endpoints
- moonshot_schema: is_moonshot_model matches bare 'k3' so tool-schema
sanitization runs on the chat-completions path
- contributor mappings for githubespresso407, datachainsystems, Punyko8
Tests: 582 passed across 11 targeted files; hermetic E2E verifies picker
order (kimi-k3 first), no dupes, and 1M context resolution.
The au./apac. additions from #46297 and #65973 covered
is_anthropic_bedrock_model and _normalize_bedrock_model_name; the same
prefix lists exist at two more sibling sites that would still miss
au./ca./sa./me./af. profiles:
- anthropic_adapter._looks_like_bedrock_model_id
- chat_completion_helpers (reasoning stale-timeout floor resolution)
All four sites now share the same 11-prefix set (global/us/eu/apac/ap/
au/jp/ca/sa/me/af, longest-first so apac. wins over ap.). The Bedrock
picker's BEDROCK_GEO_PREFIXES is deliberately untouched: au. absent
there fails open (profile shown), and adding it requires a region-to-geo
remap to avoid hiding Sydney profiles.
Kimi's Anthropic-compatible endpoints (api.moonshot.cn/anthropic,
api.kimi.com/coding) implement the adaptive thinking contract — they
accept thinking.type=adaptive + output_config.effort (all of low,
medium, high, xhigh, max verified live) and return thinking blocks, and
the replay-validation 400s that originally motivated dropping the
parameter (#13848) no longer occur.
_supports_adaptive_thinking() now returns True for Kimi-family models,
so they get thinking={type: adaptive, display: summarized} +
output_config.effort via ADAPTIVE_EFFORT_MAP instead of nothing, and
the blanket drop of the thinking parameter for Kimi-family endpoints is
removed. MiniMax and other non-adaptive third parties keep the manual
budget_tokens path; Claude behavior is unchanged.
_manage_thinking_signatures treated every Kimi-family endpoint with the
#13848-era contract: strip signed Anthropic thinking blocks from replayed
history, assuming the upstream cannot validate Anthropic signatures.
Live probing shows that contract is outdated for the whole Kimi family:
- Kimi For Coding (api.kimi.com/coding) issues AND validates its own
thinking signatures (K3+): both verbatim and content-mutated signed
blocks replay with HTTP 200;
- Moonshot's Anthropic surface (api.moonshot.cn/anthropic) accepts signed
blocks the same way (200 on both verbatim and mutated);
- every other harness that replays signed blocks to KFC (Claude Code, pi,
Kilo Code) round-trips fine.
Stripping signed blocks there silently discarded the model's prior
chain-of-thought in multi-turn conversations — e.g. a two-turn recall
probe loses the reasoning between turns while the text answer survives
(agent.log: turn-2 input ≈ turn-1 input + a few dozen tokens instead of
+thinking). With this change, the same probe recalls the exact hidden
values from turn-1 thinking (+230 tokens on turn 2).
So: on _is_kimi_family_endpoint, keep signed and unsigned thinking blocks
unchanged on replay — one uniform rule for the whole Kimi family, no
/coding-vs-Moonshot split. DeepSeek keeps the #16748 contract (strip
signed, preserve unsigned). Third-party and direct-Anthropic behavior is
untouched.
Add tests/agent/test_anthropic_kimi_signed_thinking_replay.py pinning the
unified behavior (Kimi /coding + Moonshot keep signed and unsigned) and
the unchanged neighbors (DeepSeek strips, direct Anthropic keeps).
Review follow-ups on the cherry-picked #36043 commit:
1. Guard the custom:<name> passthrough with a _get_named_custom_provider
lookup. The PR unconditionally kept the full custom:<name> string, which
broke config-less runtime custom providers (#34777 regression — entries
that exist only in the live runtime, not config.yaml): the named arm
found no entry and resolution fell through to Step 2. Now custom:<name>
only takes the named arm when a config entry actually exists; otherwise
it collapses to the anonymous-custom arm with the runtime endpoint,
preserving pre-PR behavior.
2. Drop the dead 'explicit_api_key = runtime_api_key' assignment (and its
misleading comment) in the named-entry branch. resolve_provider_client's
named-custom arm derives the key exclusively from the entry's
api_key/key_env and never reads explicit_api_key, so the assignment was
a no-op. Wiring precedence in was not justified: for a named custom
provider the runtime key IS the entry's key (set_runtime_main sources it
from the same config), so deletion is the honest option.
3. Tighten the Palantir Bearer-auth check from a loose substring match
('palantirfoundry' in normalized) to a hostname match via
base_url_host_matches(..., 'palantirfoundry.com'), so path segments or
lookalike domains containing the string no longer trigger Bearer auth.
Tests: named-custom anthropic_messages end-to-end routing (full name kept,
AnthropicAuxiliaryClient at the original /anthropic URL, no /v1 rewrite)
plus Palantir Bearer-auth positive and substring-false-positive cases.
When the user's main provider is a named custom_providers entry exposing an
Anthropic Messages surface (e.g. Palantir Foundry's
/api/v2/llm/proxy/anthropic, custom LiteLLM/Bedrock proxies), auxiliary
tasks (title generation, compression, web extract, session search, etc.)
returned HTTP 404 NOT_FOUND for every call.
Root cause: `_resolve_auto` collapsed any `custom:<name>` main provider
to plain `"custom"` and passed runtime_base_url as explicit_base_url.
This landed in `resolve_provider_client`'s anonymous-custom arm
(`if provider == "custom":`), which unconditionally calls
`_to_openai_base_url` — that helper strips a trailing `/anthropic` and
substitutes `/v1` (designed for MiniMax/ZAI which expose both surfaces).
The result for Palantir is `/api/v2/llm/proxy/v1`, which does not exist
on the proxy — every auxiliary call 404s. The runtime `api_mode=
anthropic_messages` flag was discarded by this arm.
Fix: split the conditional so only the literal `"custom"` provider takes
the anonymous-custom path; `custom:<name>` keeps its full `custom:<name>`
string when handed to `resolve_provider_client`, where the
named-custom-provider arm (added in earlier work) honours the entry's
`api_mode` and routes through `AnthropicAuxiliaryClient` against the
original `/anthropic` URL.
Also: extend `_requires_bearer_auth` in `anthropic_adapter.py` to
recognise palantirfoundry hosts so the SDK sends `Authorization: Bearer`
instead of the default `x-api-key` (Palantir's proxy rejects x-api-key
with 401).
Verified end-to-end against a live Palantir Foundry deployment with both
claude-4-6-opus and claude-4-7-opus models — `generate_title` returns
real titles instead of 404ing. Regression-tested:
- anonymous `custom` (with base_url) still routes to OpenAI wire
- built-in NVIDIA provider unchanged
- custom-without-base_url still falls through to Step-2 chain
dict.get(key, default) returns None (not the default) when the key
EXISTS with value None. The default only applies when the key is ABSENT.
Chained method calls (.strip(), .upper(), .count()) crash with
AttributeError on NoneType.
Fix two confirmed hits:
- auxiliary_client.py: custom provider base_url/api_key (config null)
- anthropic_adapter.py: text block content (API null response)
Pattern: .get(key, "").method() → (.get(key) or "").method()
* fix(auth): resolve Anthropic OAuth file per-profile + close port-binding platform gaps
Two focused pieces salvaged from PR #57563:
1. _HERMES_OAUTH_FILE was computed at module import time — frozen before
HERMES_HOME/profile overrides, so multiplexed profile turns read and
wrote the DEFAULT profile's .anthropic_oauth.json (OAuth path hijack).
Replaced with a lazy _get_hermes_oauth_file(); all web_server.py call
sites updated.
2. _PORT_BINDING_PLATFORM_VALUES was missing whatsapp_cloud and line —
both bind aiohttp TCP listeners, so a secondary multiplex profile
enabling them would collide with the primary's listener instead of
failing fast at startup.
Original work by @austinlaw076. The rest of #57563 was redundant on
main (adapter routing sweep superseded by #56854's salvage; cron secret
scope landed in fdab380a1; nested-config fallback in from_dict).

Two review findings on the #57922 salvage:
1. Stale inline comment at the login-exchange site still claimed the token
endpoint uses the claude-code/ UA prefix and 404s claude-cli/ — now
contradicts the axios/ fix. Repointed it at _OAUTH_TOKEN_USER_AGENT.
2. The inherited Path.home test isolation on the three TestRefreshOauthToken
tests only stubbed the ~/.claude *file* source, not the macOS Keychain.
_refresh_oauth_token re-reads read_claude_code_credentials() (keychain
first) in its adopt-already-refreshed branch, so on any macOS dev/CI runner
with real Claude Code creds the branch short-circuits and the 3 tests fail.
Stub read_claude_code_credentials -> None so the tests are hermetic.
(The remaining TestResolveAnthropicToken/TestResolveWithRefresh/TestRunOauthSetupToken
failures on macOS are the same pre-existing keychain-leak class on origin/main,
unrelated to this OAuth-UA fix, and pass in CI — left out of scope.)
hermes auth add anthropic fails 100% at token exchange with HTTP 429 while
Claude Code /login succeeds through the same client_id/redirect/scope. The
discriminator is the User-Agent on the /v1/oauth/token request.
Verified live against platform.claude.com (throwaway code, nothing burned):
claude-code/2.1.200 (external, cli) -> 429 rate_limit (Hermes, blocked)
Mozilla/5.0 -> 429 rate_limit
axios/1.7.9 -> 400 invalid_grant (reached validation)
node / empty / SDK-style UAs -> 400 invalid_grant
Anthropic now rate-limits token-endpoint requests whose UA starts with
claude-code/ (the anti-abuse net for Max-sub-as-API-key). This is the same
prefix-block shape that #48534 first hit on claude-cli/, then #56263 dodged by
switching to claude-code/ — which held ~2 weeks and is now blocked too. Bumping
_CLAUDE_CODE_VERSION_FALLBACK cannot help; the gate is prefix-based.
Fix: shared _OAUTH_TOKEN_USER_AGENT (axios/) on the token endpoint only — the
two refresh POSTs (refresh_anthropic_oauth_pure) and the login exchange POST
(run_hermes_oauth_login_pure). The real Claude Code CLI exchanges the auth code
with a bare axios client, NOT its claude-code/ inference UA.
The INFERENCE client (build_anthropic_kwargs, /v1/messages) is deliberately left
on claude-code/ + x-app: cli — that fingerprint is required there and is NOT
throttled on the messages API. Two endpoints, opposite UA requirements.
Also isolate two _refresh_oauth_token tests from live ~/.claude creds and update
the UA regression tests to assert the split (token endpoint uses a
non-claude-code UA while inference keeps claude-code/).
Verified E2E: Hermes' own login path now returns 400 (past the 429 wall)
instead of 429, using the real _OAUTH_TOKEN_USER_AGENT constant against the live
platform.claude.com token endpoint.
Salvaged from #57922 (authorize-host + scope changes dropped as non-load-bearing;
they only add a redirect hop back to claude.ai and the UA fix alone clears 429).
Anthropic's OAuth endpoints 404 for the claude-cli/ User-Agent prefix. Switch
all three OAuth UA sites (build_anthropic_client, refresh_anthropic_oauth_pure,
run_hermes_oauth_login_pure) to the claude-code/ prefix Anthropic expects.
Salvaged from #51948.

_strip_orphaned_tool_blocks collected tool_result ids across ALL user messages
and kept any assistant tool_use whose id appeared anywhere, rather than
requiring the result to be in the immediately-following user message. A stale
match elsewhere in the transcript could keep a genuinely-orphaned tool_use,
which Anthropic rejects. Rewrite to adjacency-checked two-pass logic so a
tool_use is kept only when its result immediately follows.

The Anthropic SDK clients were built without max_retries, so the SDK
default (max_retries=2) retried 429/5xx with its own backoff that ignores
Retry-After — double-retrying inside hermes's outer loop and burning
request slots against a bucket that won't refill for minutes. Set
max_retries=0 on all Anthropic/AnthropicBedrock client constructions so
the outer conversation loop (which already honors Retry-After) owns retry.
Also raise the Retry-After cap in the conversation loop from 120s to 600s.
Anthropic Tier 1 input-token buckets reset in ~171s, so the 120s cap made
hermes retry before the reset window and re-trip the limit.
Refs #26293
Claude Code OAuth refresh tokens are single-use; Claude Code refreshes on
its own schedule, so by the time Hermes notices an expired token Claude
Code may have already rotated it. Re-read live credential sources first and
adopt a valid token rather than POSTing a possibly-stale refresh token.
Ports the _refresh_oauth_token hardening from PR #40107 (chazmaniandinkle)
on top of the keychain/file reconciliation from PR #21112 (nodejun).
Adds AUTHOR_MAP entry for nodejun.
read_claude_code_credentials() previously returned the macOS Keychain
entry as soon as one existed, even if its OAuth token was already
expired. Callers then ran is_claude_code_token_valid() on the result
and got False, so resolve_anthropic_token() returned None — surfacing
the misleading 'No Anthropic credentials found' error even when
~/.claude/.credentials.json held a perfectly valid token.
Now reads both sources and prefers the non-expired one. When both are
valid (or both expired), prefers the later expiresAt so any subsequent
refresh uses the freshest refresh_token.
Adds TestReadClaudeCodeCredentialsDesync covering the four reconciliation
cases. The existing 'keychain wins' priority test still passes because
both fixtures share the same expiresAt and the tiebreaker is >=.
* fix(windows): stop subprocess console-window popups + add CI guard
The single biggest source of Windows 'terminal popup' bug reports was bare
subprocess.run/Popen calls spawning a console window. The compat helpers
(windows_hide_flags / windows_detach_popen_kwargs) already existed but the
footgun checker had no rule to stop new bare calls from reintroducing the flash.
- scripts/check-windows-footguns.py: new AST-based rule flagging subprocess
calls that can create a new console — output-redirection-aware (capture/
redirect/check_output exempt) and POSIX-only-program-aware (launchctl/
systemctl/brew/etc. exempt). Comprehensive on real popups, no annotation
burden on calls that can't flash.
- Swept all genuine window-spawning sites through windows_hide_flags()/
windows_detach_popen_kwargs(); marked intentionally-visible launches
(editor/terminal/foreground re-exec) with '# windows-footgun: ok'.
- tests/scripts/test_windows_footgun_subprocess_rule.py: behavior-contract
tests + full-repo cleanliness invariant.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: documents the rule + the helper pattern.
* test: accept creationflags kwarg in psutil_android fake_subprocess_run
The Windows no-window sweep added creationflags=windows_hide_flags() to
install_psutil_android.py's subprocess.run call; the test's fake stub had a
fixed (cmd) signature and raised TypeError on the new kwarg.
Anthropic migrated the OAuth token endpoint from
console.anthropic.com/v1/oauth/token (now returns HTTP 404) to
platform.claude.com/v1/oauth/token. The token *refresh* path already
iterated both hosts, but the two initial code-exchange call sites were
hardcoded to the dead console host, so every new Claude OAuth login
failed with 'Token exchange failed: HTTP Error 404: Not Found' and saved
no credentials.
Fix the whole bug class:
- Add _OAUTH_TOKEN_URLS [platform.claude.com, console.anthropic.com] in
agent/anthropic_adapter.py; _OAUTH_TOKEN_URL now points at the live
host for backward-compat with existing imports.
- run_hermes_oauth_login_pure() (CLI flow) iterates the list, first
success wins, mirroring the refresh path.
- hermes_cli/web_server.py (desktop dashboard flow) imports the list and
iterates it too, so the GUI login path is fixed identically.
Probe: console.anthropic.com/v1/oauth/token -> HTTP 404 (gone),
platform.claude.com/v1/oauth/token -> HTTP 400 (alive). Verified a real
Claude MAX OAuth login now succeeds end-to-end.
/simplify-code QUALITY finding: the `if callable(_available_entries): ... else:
pool.select()` ladder was dead for the real CredentialPool type (`_available_entries`
is always a bound method) AND the select() fallback violated the helper's read-only
contract — select() -> _select_unlocked() runs _available_entries(clear_expired=True,
refresh=True), which persists to auth.json and triggers a network refresh. Call
_available_entries(clear_expired=False, refresh=False) directly inside the existing
try/except instead.
Also drops the now-dead `select=` stubs from the 6 pool tests (they only existed to
satisfy the removed fallback branch). Behavior unchanged; 6 pool tests pass and the
read-only / null-token contract tests were mutation-checked (flipping the flags /
removing the None-guard fails the respective test).
The double-underscore prefix swap fixed bare native tools but SKIPPED tools
already named mcp_<server>_<tool> (real MCP servers, e.g. mcp_linear_get_issue):
they went on the OAuth wire single-underscore and still tripped Anthropic's
third-party billing classifier -> HTTP 400 'extra usage, not plan limits'.
Verified empirically against a live Max subscription: a single mcp_ tool flips
the whole request to the extra-usage lane; mcp__ is accepted.
- build_anthropic_kwargs: promote ANY leading single-underscore mcp_ to mcp__
(bare names -> mcp__name; mcp_<server>_<tool> -> mcp__<server>_<tool>),
never double-prefixing an already-mcp__ name. Same for tool_use blocks in
history.
- normalize_response: reverse the mcp__ wire name back to whichever original
the registry knows — the single-underscore mcp_<server>_<tool> form for MCP
server tools, or the bare name for native tools — preferring a name that
already resolves natively.
- Tests rewritten to assert the invariant: ZERO single-underscore mcp_ names
reach the OAuth wire, and the mcp__ round-trip resolves back to the
registered name for both native and MCP-server tools.
Builds on liuhao1024's mcp__ prefix commit (cherry-picked). Closes the
MCP-server gap that left any session with an MCP server configured still
billing to extra usage.
Anthropic's Claude-Code request classifier treats tool names with a
single-underscore `mcp_<x>` prefix as non-Claude-Code / third-party,
routing the request to extra-usage billing (HTTP 400). Real Claude Code
uses double underscores: `mcp__<server>__<tool>`.
Change the tool-name prefix from `mcp_` to `mcp__` in both the outgoing
path (build_anthropic_kwargs) and the incoming path
(normalize_response). Update the skip-guard to check for both `mcp_`
and `mcp__` prefixes so native MCP server tools (which use the legacy
single-underscore format) are not double-prefixed.
Fixes#46675
Two additive hardening changes on the interleaved-thinking replay path
introduced by this PR's anthropic_content_blocks channel. Both are scoped
to that channel's blast radius; neither changes correct behavior.
1. Replay-time tool-input re-sourcing (credential safety).
The ordered-block channel captures each tool_use `input` from the RAW
API response in normalize_response, which is NOT credential-redacted.
The parallel tool_calls[].function.arguments IS redacted at storage
time (build_assistant_message, #19798). The verbatim-replay fast path
in _convert_assistant_message replayed the raw block input, so a secret
a model inlined into a tool call (e.g. an Authorization header value
passed inside a terminal command) would ride back onto the wire even
though it is redacted everywhere else in history. Re-source tool_use
input from the redacted tool_calls map by
sanitized id; interleave order (the reason this channel exists) is
unaffected. Adapted from #36071, which re-sources tool inputs the same
way on its replay path.
2. Broaden the thinking-replay 400 classifier (defense-in-depth).
error_classifier only matched "signature" + "thinking", so the
frozen-block variant — "thinking ... blocks in the latest assistant
message cannot be modified. These blocks must remain as they were in
the original response." — carried no "signature" token and fell through
to a non-retryable abort. The anthropic_content_blocks channel prevents
the reorder that triggers this 400 at the source, but if any future
mutator reintroduces it, the turn now self-heals via the existing
strip-reasoning-and-retry recovery instead of crash-looping. A negative
case ensures an unrelated "cannot be modified" 400 (no "thinking") is
not swept in. Mirrors the classifier broadening in #36087 and #36071.
Tests
- tests/agent/test_anthropic_thinking_block_order.py: a replay test
asserting an inlined secret is redacted on the wire while interleave
order is preserved.
- tests/agent/test_error_classifier.py: three cases — frozen-block 400
native and via OpenRouter route to thinking_signature/retryable; an
unrelated "cannot be modified" 400 does not.
Both grafts verified RED (tests fail with the change reverted) then GREEN.
Full adapter, transport, classifier and output-field-leak suites pass.
Co-authored-by: AlexanderBFoley <92330381+AlexanderBFoley@users.noreply.github.com>
HTTP 400 "messages.N.content.M.text.parsed_output: Extra inputs are not
permitted" on the native Anthropic transport. Anthropic SDK 0.87.0 response
blocks carry output-only attributes the Messages *input* schema forbids: text
blocks get `parsed_output` and `citations=None`, tool_use blocks get `caller`.
normalize_response captured blocks verbatim via _to_plain_data and replayed
them as request input on the next turn, so the forbidden fields leaked back ->
400. Like the earlier thinking-block bug, one poisoned turn wedges every
subsequent request in the session (even the diagnostic turn), recoverable only
by switching models or deleting the session.
This is a defect in the anthropic_content_blocks channel added for the
interleaved-thinking fix: it preserved block ORDER correctly but copied every
SDK attribute, including output-only ones.
Fix — whitelist input-permitted fields per block type at all three leak points:
- agent/transports/anthropic.py normalize_response: sanitize at CAPTURE so the
poison never persists to state.db (defence-in-depth).
- agent/anthropic_adapter.py _sanitize_replay_block (new): whitelist used on the
ordered-blocks replay path; also recovers already-poisoned stored sessions.
- agent/anthropic_adapter.py _convert_content_part_to_anthropic: a stored
`text` part is rebuilt from whitelisted fields instead of dict(part) verbatim
(this was the exact content.N.text.parsed_output failure locus).
Whitelist not blacklist, so future SDK output-only fields can't reintroduce it.
Block order and thinking-block signatures are preserved (the reason the channel
exists). Adds tests/agent/test_anthropic_output_field_leak.py; full adapter
suite green (163 tests). Existing poisoned state.db rows scrubbed out-of-band.
Interleaved-thinking turns (adaptive thinking, Claude 4.6+/Opus 4.8) emit
content blocks like:
thinking_1(signed) tool_use_1 thinking_2(signed) tool_use_2
Anthropic signs each thinking block against the turn content preceding it
at its position. normalize_response split the turn into two parallel lists
(reasoning_details + tool_calls), discarding cross-type order, and
_convert_assistant_message rebuilt it as [all thinking][text][all tool_use].
That moved thinking_2 ahead of tool_use_1, invalidating its signature, so
Anthropic rejected the latest assistant message with HTTP 400:
messages.N.content.M: `thinking` or `redacted_thinking` blocks in the
latest assistant message cannot be modified.
Observed repeatedly in agent.conversation_loop against api.anthropic.com /
claude-opus-4-8, recurring across sessions on multi-thinking-block turns.
Fix: carry a verbatim, order-preserving copy of the turn's content blocks
(anthropic_content_blocks) end-to-end - capture in normalize_response,
persist/restore through state.db, and replay unchanged for the latest
assistant message. Gated to turns that actually interleave signed thinking
with tool_use, so normal turns are unaffected.
Adds 3 regression tests including a SQLite round-trip covering the
crash-recovery reload path.
New Anthropic models without a recognized version substring (claude-fable-5
and future named/numbered releases) were classified as legacy and routed down
the manual-thinking path, which made OpenRouter emit thinking.type.disabled —
a form reasoning-mandatory Claude models reject with a non-retryable HTTP 400.
Invert the brittle version-substring allowlists to default-to-modern (mirroring
_get_anthropic_max_output): unknown Claude models get the adaptive/xhigh/
no-sampling contract, with an explicit legacy list for older families. Non-Claude
Anthropic-Messages models (minimax, qwen3, …) keep the manual path.
- anthropic_adapter: _supports_adaptive_thinking / _supports_xhigh_effort /
_forbids_sampling_params now default unknown Claude models to modern; legacy
families enumerated in _LEGACY_MANUAL_THINKING_CLAUDE_SUBSTRINGS.
- openrouter profile: omit reasoning entirely (→ adaptive default) instead of
forwarding {enabled:false} for reasoning-mandatory Anthropic models; legacy
Anthropic + all non-Anthropic models still pass the disable form through.
- model_metadata + output-limit table: register claude-fable-5 (1M ctx, 128K out).
Tests assert the invariant ("unknown Claude model -> modern contract; legacy
stays manual; non-Claude unaffected"), not specific model names.
The blanket DEVNULL pass muzzled run_oauth_setup_token()'s interactive
'claude setup-token' login, which needs inherited stdin to prompt the
user. Revert that one call and replace the guard's brittle file:line
whitelist with an inline 'noqa: subprocess-stdin' marker that travels
with the code.
When Hermes runs in TUI mode, the gateway child process communicates with
the Node.js parent over a JSON-RPC protocol on stdin. Subprocess calls that
inherit this stdin fd can trigger a race condition where the child's stdin
read returns EOF, causing the gateway to exit cleanly (exit code 0) mid-tool-
execution.
This is the same root cause as issue #14036 (byterover plugin) and PR #39257
(SSH environment backend). This commit applies the fix — stdin=subprocess.DEVNULL
— to all 85 subprocess.run() and subprocess.Popen() calls that execute inside
the TUI gateway child process.
Scope: TUI-context code only (agent/, tools/, plugins/, tui_gateway/server.py).
CLI code (cli.py, hermes_cli/), tests, scripts, and gateway process management
are excluded — they don't run inside the TUI child and inherit the terminal's
stdin, not the JSON-RPC pipe.
85 call sites across 28 files. All files pass syntax check.
A Responses-API-shaped payload carrying instructions=/input=/store=/
parallel_tool_calls= can reach the native Anthropic messages.stream() /
messages.create() call under a rare api_mode-flip race (e.g. a concurrent
auxiliary vision call mutating a shared agent between the kwargs build and
the stream dispatch). The Anthropic SDK rejects these with a non-retryable
TypeError that kills the whole turn and propagates the entire fallback chain.
Add sanitize_anthropic_kwargs() at both Anthropic dispatch sites: it drops
the Responses-only keys in place and logs a WARNING (with #31673 breadcrumb)
when one is present, so the underlying race stays visible in the wild
instead of being silently papered over.
Extended-thinking Claude models (4.6+, e.g. Opus 4.8) emit a signed `thinking`
block on assistant turns that also carry parallel `tool_use` blocks. Anthropic
signs that block against the full, original turn content.
When a parallel tool batch is interrupted before every `tool_result` returns,
`_strip_orphaned_tool_blocks` removes the unanswered `tool_use` on replay — which
mutates the turn. The latest-assistant branch of `_manage_thinking_signatures`
then replays the now-stale signed thinking block verbatim, and Anthropic rejects
the request with a non-retryable HTTP 400:
messages.N.content.M: `thinking` or `redacted_thinking` blocks in the latest
assistant message cannot be modified. These blocks must remain as they were
in the original response.
Because the poisoned turn is rebuilt from the persisted store every turn, the
gateway crash-loops with no self-recovery (a soft session reset does not clear
it). The drifting content index in the error is the changing count of stripped
`tool_use` blocks across rebuilds.
Fix: when orphan-stripping removes a `tool_use` from a turn that also holds a
thinking/redacted_thinking block, flag the turn. `_manage_thinking_signatures`
then demotes every thinking block on that latest turn to a plain text block
(preserving the reasoning text) instead of replaying a signature that can no
longer validate. An intact turn is unaffected — its signed thinking is still
replayed verbatim. The internal flag is stripped before the payload is sent.
Adds two regression tests:
- demotion when an orphaned parallel tool_use is stripped
- control: signed thinking preserved verbatim when nothing is stripped
Vulture + per-symbol verification (whole-repo grep incl. tests, string
literals, getattr, decorator/registry/argparse dispatch) confirmed each of
these has zero callers anywhere — not reachable via any dynamic-dispatch path,
not referenced by tests, not re-exported.

Pure deletion: -551 LOC. No behavior change. Test files covering the edited
modules pass (640/640); the broader suite's pre-existing/env-dependent
failures reproduce unchanged on origin/main.
OAuth auto-open only checked _is_remote_session() (SSH + cloud-shell env
vars). On a headless/CLI-only Linux box with no GUI browser, none of those
trip, so webbrowser.open() resolved to a console browser (w3m/lynx/links)
and launched it INSIDE the terminal — hijacking the user's TTY with the
xAI 'Account Management' login page instead of letting them copy the URL.
Add _can_open_graphical_browser(): returns False when webbrowser would
resolve to a known console browser, when $BROWSER names one, when there's
no display server on Linux, or when no browser resolves at all. Gate all 5
OAuth auto-open callsites (xAI loopback, Spotify loopback, MiniMax device
code, Anthropic, Google) on it in addition to the existing remote check.
Headless boxes now print the URL / fall through to manual-paste instead.
Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.8 on 2026-05-27, available on
OpenRouter, Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, and Claude Platform on AWS:
- https://openrouter.ai/anthropic/claude-opus-4.8
- https://openrouter.ai/anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast
The fast-mode variant is a separate model ID (anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast)
priced at 2x of the base model — a notable improvement over the 6x premium
on older Opus generations (4.6/4.7). It is NOT a `speed: "fast"` request
parameter like Opus 4.6; Anthropic's native fast-mode beta still only
covers Opus 4.6.
Changes:
hermes_cli/models.py
- Add anthropic/claude-opus-4.8 + anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast to
the OpenRouter fallback snapshot and the Nous Portal curated list
(live catalogs surface them automatically when reachable; the
fallback list matters when the manifest fetch fails).
- Add claude-opus-4-8 to the Anthropic-native picker list.
agent/model_metadata.py
- Register claude-opus-4-8 / claude-opus-4.8 in DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS
with 1M tokens (matches 4.6/4.7).
agent/anthropic_adapter.py
- Extend _XHIGH_EFFORT_SUBSTRINGS, _ADAPTIVE_THINKING_SUBSTRINGS, and
_NO_SAMPLING_PARAMS_SUBSTRINGS with "4-8"/"4.8". 4.8 inherits the
Opus 4.7 API contract: adaptive thinking only, xhigh effort level
supported, sampling parameters (temperature/top_p/top_k) return 400.
- Add claude-opus-4-8 to _ANTHROPIC_OUTPUT_LIMITS (128k max output,
same as 4.7). Matches by substring so claude-opus-4-8-fast and
date-stamped variants resolve correctly.
agent/usage_pricing.py
- Add anthropic/claude-opus-4-8: $5/$25 per MTok input/output, $0.50
cache read, $6.25 cache write (same as 4.6/4.7).
- Add anthropic/claude-opus-4-8-fast: $10/$50 per MTok (2x), $1.00
cache read, $12.50 cache write. Per OpenRouter, the 2x premium is
the only differentiator from regular Opus 4.8.
- OpenRouter routes still pull pricing from the live /models API, so
no static OpenRouter entry is needed.
tests/agent/test_model_metadata.py
- Extend the Claude 4.6+ context-length tag list with 4.8/4-8.
website/static/api/model-catalog.json
- Regenerated via `python scripts/build_model_catalog.py` to pick up
the new entries in the OpenRouter and Nous Portal fallback lists.
E2E verification (isolated sys.path import against the worktree):
- _supports_adaptive_thinking, _supports_xhigh_effort, _forbids_sampling_params
all return True for claude-opus-4.8 and claude-opus-4.8-fast.
- _supports_fast_mode (the `speed: "fast"` request-parameter gate) stays
False for 4.8 — fast mode is a separate model ID on OpenRouter, not a
parameter Anthropic accepts on the base model.
- DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS resolves 1M for both notations.
- resolve_billing_route + _lookup_official_docs_pricing resolve the
correct $5/$25 (regular) and $10/$50 (fast) pricing for both
dot-notation and dash-notation inputs.
- 4.7 and 4.6 regression: behavior unchanged.
Unit tests: 305 passed across tests/agent/test_usage_pricing.py,
test_model_metadata.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_model_catalog.py,
test_models.py, test_model_validation.py, test_models_dev_preferred_merge.py.
_write_claude_code_credentials wrote ~/.claude/.credentials.json via
Path.write_text + replace + post-write chmod(0o600). Both the temp file
and the destination briefly inherited the process umask (commonly 0o644
= world-readable) between create/replace and chmod, exposing the OAuth
access/refresh tokens to other local users on multi-user hosts.
Use os.open with O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL and an explicit S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR
mode so the temp file is created atomically at 0o600. After os.replace,
the destination inherits the temp's mode, so the post-write chmod is no
longer needed. The temp name also gains a per-process random suffix to
avoid collisions between concurrent writers and stale leftovers from a
crashed prior write.
Parent dir (~/.claude/) is owned by Claude Code itself and shared with
its native auth, so we deliberately don't tighten its mode here (unlike
the mcp_oauth fix which owns its own subtree under HERMES_HOME).
Mirrors the fix shipped for agent/google_oauth.py in #19673 and the
parallel fix for tools/mcp_oauth.py in #21148.
Adds a regression test in TestWriteClaudeCodeCredentials asserting the
resulting file mode is 0o600 (skipped on Windows where POSIX mode bits
aren't enforced).
Companion to the GH-25255 incoming-strip fix from @hayka-pacha. Without
this, build_anthropic_kwargs unconditionally added 'mcp_' to every tool
name in step 3, so a native MCP server tool registered as
'mcp_composio_X' was sent as 'mcp_mcp_composio_X' on the wire. The
incoming strip only removes ONE prefix, which still worked on first
call, but on subsequent calls the model pattern-matched the
single-prefixed form from message history and produced names that
stripped to 'composio_X' — registry miss, dispatch fail.
The history-rewrite block (#4) already has this guard. Apply the same
guard to the schema-rewrite block (#3) so round-trip is symmetric.
Added 4 outgoing-side tests. Existing 7 incoming-side tests still pass.

Cherry-pick of @sharziki's #27022 routed Azure Foundry through
_requires_bearer_auth, which also triggered the MiniMax-specific
beta-strip in _common_betas_for_base_url — dropping the 1M-context
beta from Azure even though Azure needs it for 1M context.
Split the strip predicate: introduce _is_minimax_anthropic_endpoint
so the fine-grained-tool-streaming and context-1m strips only fire
for MiniMax hosts, leaving Azure's bearer-auth header swap intact
without losing 1M context.
Also add a regression test that asserts Azure gets Bearer auth,
the api-version query param, and the context-1m-2025-08-07 beta.
Azure AI Foundry's Anthropic-style endpoint requires
`Authorization: Bearer` instead of `x-api-key`. Add `azure.com` to
`_requires_bearer_auth()` so the existing Bearer path at line 586 fires
before the generic third-party branch sets `api_key` (x-api-key).
Fixes#26970
Group the secrets import with time and webbrowser at the top of
run_hermes_oauth_login_pure(), matching the existing pattern.
Drop the _secrets alias — no name conflict in this scope.
The PKCE flow reused the code_verifier as the OAuth state parameter.
Per RFC 6749 §10.12 and RFC 7636, these serve different purposes:
state is an anti-CSRF token visible in the authorization URL; the
code_verifier must remain secret for the token exchange.
Generate an independent secrets.token_urlsafe(32) for state and
validate it on callback to provide actual CSRF protection.
