One sherpa listener now enrolls every wake-enabled profile's phrase
(defaulting to "hey <profile name>") and reports WHICH phrase fired.
wake.detected gains a profile field; the desktop live-switches to the
matching profile (same path as the profile rail), opens a fresh session
there, and starts hands-free voice. The single-profile CLI/TUI print the
hermes -p switch command for foreign-profile phrases instead of
answering as the wrong profile. Opt out per listener with
wake_word.profile_routing: false.
TUI-local handler over the wake.start/stop/status RPCs with friendly
transcript one-liners (phrase, provider, foreign-owner note, refusal
reasons, unavailability hints). /wake off sets a session-scoped opt-out
the gateway.ready auto-arm respects, so the listener stays off across
reconnects until /wake on. cli_only already means CLI+TUI (verified:
messaging menus exclude it); zero Python changes needed.
start_new_session was respected only by the CLI; the TUI and desktop GUI
always opened a fresh session on wake, ignoring the config. The gateway
now carries the flag in the wake.detected payload and both clients honor
it (open a fresh session vs. continue the current one), matching the CLI.
Makes the wake word a tri-surface feature with one configurable owner.
- wake_word.surface ("auto" | "cli" | "tui" | "gui") + shared
wake_surface_enabled() gate consulted by every surface, so exactly one
place owns the listener and the new session it opens.
- tui_gateway: wake.start/stop/pause/resume/status RPCs + a wake.detected
event, sharing one server-side detector for both TUI and desktop. The
detector yields the mic to voice.record (pause on capture start, resume
on terminal) and to the desktop's browser mic (wake.pause/resume).
- TUI (Ink): arm wake.start on gateway.ready; on wake.detected open a
fresh session and start voice capture.
- Desktop (Electron): arm wake.start on connect; on wake.detected open a
fresh session.
- CLI now gates on wake_surface_enabled("cli"); /wake status shows surface.
- Tests for the surface gate; docs cover the surface knob + cross-surface.
A skin that authors a background paints both terminal defaults: OSC-11
for the backdrop, OSC-10 to re-base every default-fg token (markdown
body, borders, anything rendered without an explicit color) onto the
theme's text tone.
The OSC-10 half never fired on a limited-palette terminal.
`normalizeThemeForAnsiLightTerminal` rewrites the foreground tones to
`ansi256(N)`, and `setTerminalForeground` only accepts `#rrggbb` — so
the argument failed the hex test and the write was silently skipped.
The background moved to the skin while default-fg text stayed on the
host profile's foreground.
That split is the reported symptom: prose renders in the terminal's own
near-black while every themed token beside it renders the skin's gray,
so the base text color appears to change between adjacent words. A
resize repaints the affected cells from the screen buffer, which is why
the text "goes black" on resize and why the mix looks scattered rather
than uniform.
Resolve the tone through a new `themeToneHex` before handing it to
OSC-10: `ansi256(N)` maps through the xterm grayscale ramp and 6x6x6
cube, an authored hex passes through, and anything with no paintable
color yields '' (which correctly clears back to the terminal default).
Verified on Terminal.app + the `brooklyn` skin: `theme.color.text` is
`ansi256(238)`, previously dropped, now emitted as
`ESC]10;#444444 BEL` alongside the existing `ESC]11;#f6f9fd BEL`.
Frontend consumers for the events added by PR #59646: the TUI shows a
replace-in-place 'MoA: refs k/n' activity line (swapped for 'MoA:
aggregating…' on the aggregator phase), and desktop streams '◇ MoA refs
k/n' lines into the reasoning disclosure, self-cleaned by the first
moa.reference block.
The theme engine picked light/dark adaptation from the HOST terminal
(detectLightMode) even when the skin authors its own background — which
the TUI then paints onto the terminal via OSC-11. On a light-mode Apple
Terminal without truecolor, a pure-black skin (e.g. Bloomberg) got its
foregrounds ansi256-bucketed *for a light background that no longer
exists*: theme.color.text became 'ansi256(214)', which also fails the
OSC-10 hex gate, so the terminal default fg stayed the light profile's
near-black — markdown body text rendered black-on-black.
fromSkin now resolves polarity from the skin's authored background when
present (skinIsLight), uses that background as the reference canvas for
the derived tone ladder and contrast adaptation, and only falls back to
host detection for skins without a background (they render on the
terminal's own surface). The paired light_colors/dark_colors pick in
themeForSkin follows the same rule.
Open the shared ConfirmPrompt (full-width, themed, same lane as approval/clarify)
rather than a truncating status-bar notice. One recovery action: Nous → /topup
(opens the rich billing overlay), other providers → their billing page, or /model
to switch when there's no URL. The transcript keeps the full guidance; the dialog
is the concise actionable layer.
The input fix's sibling, hit immediately after: the composer was themed but
AGENT text went black-on-black the same way. Root cause is the class, not
the call site — markdown body, borders, and every token rendered without an
explicit color falls back to the terminal's DEFAULT foreground, which
belongs to the HOST profile's polarity, not the skin's. A dark skin on a
light terminal repaints the backdrop via OSC-11 while thousands of
default-fg cells stay near-black.
Chasing every <Text> is unwinnable. Instead own the default itself: when a
skin authors a background (the existing opt-in), paint the default
foreground from the resolved theme's text color via OSC-10. Every unthemed
token — present and future — re-bases onto the skin atomically, exactly
like the background.
terminalModes: the OSC-11 slot generalizes to defaultColorSlot(10|11) —
same paint/clear/exit-restore contract, tracked per slot, so a skinless
session still never touches the terminal. reapplyTheme repaints the fg too:
polarity flips swap paired palettes, moving the text tone while the
background stays.
Tests: slot contract runs table-driven over both OSC codes; handler test
pins the invariant (default fg == theme text; dropping the background
releases both defaults). Suite 1344✓, typecheck/lint/prettier clean.
The TUI inherited the terminal's background; now a skin's `background` paints the
whole surface via OSC 11 when a skin is applied, and clears back to the terminal
default (OSC 111) on revert and on exit (ridden in through resetTerminalModes).
Opt-in: a skin with no `background` leaves the terminal untouched, and the
restore only fires if we actually painted. Desktop already themed its own bg;
this closes the loop so Hermes owns its background on every surface.
Review on #20379, finding 2 (High). The boot cache seeded the previous
session's background into HERMES_TUI_BACKGROUND, the same slot a CURRENT
OSC-11 answer occupies — so a cache written on a light terminal pinned a
now-pure-black terminal to light forever: the new OSC-11 #000000 answer is
distrusted by design, the pure-white OSC-10 foreground is distrusted too,
and the macOS appearance fallback refuses to run while the slot is set.
Seeding now records provenance (themeBoot.seedBootEnvironment, extracted
and testable against a passed env). When the current terminal answers the
background probe with the untrusted fingerprint, the gateway handler calls
invalidateBootBackground(): the slot clears ONLY while it still holds the
seeded value (a trusted answer that overwrote it is authoritative), OSC-10
gets first claim in the same startup batch, and a short settle pass re-
derives from the live fallback chain if nothing answered.
The cache is also pin-coherent now: commitTheme persists the config mode
pin (display.tui_theme) alongside the resolved theme + physical background.
Previously "/theme light" on a dark terminal cached a light theme next to a
dark background — the next launch painted light, flipped dark when the skin
resolved against the seeded background, then flipped light again on config
hydration: the exact multi-stage flash the cache exists to eliminate. The
seeded pin counts as config-owned (bootSeededPin), so a later 'auto' can
still clear it instead of mistaking it for a user shell export.
Tests cover the review's sequences: stale-light cache vs current dark
terminal (invalidate → fallback chain), stale-dark vs ambiguous light,
pinned light on a dark physical background across restart (and the
inverse), trusted-overwrite protection, and the explicit-signal guards.
Regression from the r3 shell-pin fix: applyConfiguredTuiTheme('light'|'dark')
returned early when HERMES_TUI_THEME already matched, leaving
configPinnedTheme false — so a later '/theme auto' refused to clear the pin
and the session stayed forced to the old mode while config said auto. Set
configPinnedTheme before the match short-circuit.
Bugbot's other three r6 findings (GatewaySkin paired-palette fields,
ConfigMtimeResponse.mcp_rev, picker maxWidth props) are diff-truncation
false positives — all declared in gatewayTypes.ts / the picker prop
interfaces; typecheck is green.
- commitTheme compares the first commit against the SEED theme uiStore
mounted with (boot cache/default), not null — a cold start that resolves
to a skin differing from the default previously skipped the anti-tearing
forceRedraw on that first swap.
- applyConfiguredTuiTheme('auto') now clears only a pin CONFIG set (tracked
via configPinnedTheme), never a HERMES_TUI_THEME the user exported in their
shell — that env override outranks auto-detection per detectLightMode's
documented priority, and a config hydrate was wiping it.
(Bugbot's recurring "GatewaySkin missing paired palette fields" is a
diff-truncation false positive — gatewayTypes.ts declares light_colors/
dark_colors, typecheck green.) 81 handler + build/lint green.
Three real findings from the review of the reload.mcp pooling + OSC-10 work:
- Lock released too early: the leader now holds _mcp_reload_lock across
shutdown+discover AND its own agent refresh — releasing after discover let
a second reload tear the registry down while the first was still reading it
to rebuild the session's tool snapshot.
- Coalesced reload skipped the agent refresh: a follower returned
"reloaded" without rebuilding ITS OWN session's snapshot, so a coalesced
session kept stale tools. Followers now wait, then refresh their agent
against the freshly-built registry (under the lock, skipping the redundant
shutdown/discover). Shared _finish_reload tail for the `always` opt-out.
- macOS AppleInterfaceStyle fallback never set `resolved`, so a late OSC-10
foreground reply could re-flip the committed inference (visible churn). It
now marks resolved; a real OSC-11 background measurement still corrects it
(that listener intentionally doesn't gate on resolved — measurement beats
inference).
Bugbot's other four findings were diff-truncation false positives (color.ts,
themeBoot.ts, and the mcp_rev/light_colors/dark_colors types all exist;
typecheck + build green). 384 tui_gateway + TS suites pass.
Transparent profiles make OSC-11 useless (xterm reports the unset default,
pure black, regardless of the composited surface) so polarity detection
lagged editor theme flips. OSC-10 reports the theme's REAL foreground on
those hosts — its luminance reveals the pole. hermes-ink grows a foreground
slot (shared reportedColorSlot factory), App.tsx queries both in the
startup batch (background first so a trusted answer wins without churn),
and the app commits an inferred pole only when the background was
distrusted AND the foreground is decisive (bright=dark theme, dark=light;
mid-grays and #000/#fff defaults commit nothing). User pins still outrank.
Pixel-sampled against the reference screenshots: the beloved classic
light-mode look is the vivid authored golds rendered essentially raw
(#FFD700 shows as bright #F5C242) — transparent terminal profiles apply no
contrast lift of their own, and pre-darkening every foreground to WCAG 4.5
produced the reported mustard mud. Light-mode display floors become
near-invisible rescues only (1.18 display / 1.6 semantic; dark keeps
1.45/2.2); the default skin ships a fills-only light_colors OVERLAY
(polarity-flip the navy menu/status fills, foregrounds inherit the vivid
colors), and themeForSkin merges polarity overlays instead of replacing.
Palette audit reworked: base colors audited fully, overlays for valid keys
and fill polarity.
Four responsiveness/hardening fixes surfaced by rapid /skin switching:
config.get mtime now carries an mcp_rev hash so the TUI reloads MCP only
when MCP-relevant config changed (cosmetic /skin writes cost seconds of
reconnects before); reload.mcp runs on the RPC pool serialized by a lock
(inline it froze the stdio reader for the duration of a flapping server's
retry loop — config.set/complete.slash sat unread and the TUI appeared
dead); theme swaps schedule one full repaint (incremental diffs after a
recolor tear — stale cells keep the old palette, read as "shadows"); and
OSC-11 pure-black answers are distrusted universally (unset-default
fingerprint on xterm.js hosts and tmux). Parent EIO zombie fixed: a dead
PTY made every render write throw once a second forever; exit after 5
consecutive dead-stream errors.
The desktop color-mix system, ported: a theme is a handful of identity
SEEDS (text, primary, accent, border, status hues); every secondary tone
(muted, label, surfaces, chips, selection) is a color-mix derivative
against the real terminal background. lib/color.ts consolidates the
primitives (parse/mix/luminance/contrast/retone + xterm.js's multiplicative
liftForContrast). Knobs are grid-search fitted so the math reproduces the
classic hand-tuned literals (contract-tested). The display shim renders
authored palettes RAW and only rescues near-invisible colors. Boot reads
the last resolved theme from $HERMES_HOME/tui-theme-boot.json so the first
frame paints in the right palette (no default-dark flash), and the
placeholder cursor follows the bubbles textinput pattern.
OSC-11 asks the terminal for its actual background at startup (env
heuristics are blind on xterm.js hosts) and the theme re-derives against
the answer: desktop-contract adaptation (contrast floors + fill polarity),
a shared list-row selection primitive instead of per-picker panel fills,
paired light_colors/dark_colors skin blocks with a machine audit, and a
/theme auto|light|dark pin (display.tui_theme) for hosts whose probe lies.
E2E coverage for the OSC reply chain + /theme-info diagnostics.
* fix(billing): rename user-facing "terminal billing" copy to Remote Spending
The capability was renamed Remote Spending on the portal (consent CTA:
"Allow Remote Spending"; per-terminal states Granted/Stopped), but the
terminal, desktop, and docs still said "terminal billing" everywhere.
- Feature name: Remote Spending in titles/labels, lowercase mid-sentence.
- Step-up action verb is now "allow", matching the portal consent CTA.
- Kill-switch-off recovery copy points at the actual control ("a billing
admin can turn it on from the portal's Hermes Agent page") instead of
the dead-end "manage it on the portal".
- Per-terminal revoke copy uses the portal vocabulary ("stopped").
- Wire identifiers (cli_billing_enabled, cli_billing_disabled, ...) are
unchanged; copy, comments, docs, and test expectations only.
* fix(billing): correct the post-step-up denial diagnosis + finish the desktop rename
Adversarial review findings: (1) a repeated insufficient_scope after a
successful step-up is a per-terminal authorization failure, but the copy
blamed the org kill-switch and pointed at the wrong recovery control —
now: "Remote Spending still isn't active for this terminal — the
authorization didn't take. Retry, or make this change on the portal."
(2) the desktop step-up flow started in Remote Spending vocabulary but
finished in "billing management access" — renamed both end states.
(3) prettier formatting on the touched files (matches the post-merge
fmt bot).
* fix(desktop): preserve interim assistant text wiped at message.complete
When the agent emits interim text (commentary alongside tool calls, or the
attempted final answer before a verify-on-stop nudge), all UI surfaces
streamed it live but then wiped it at message.complete — keeping only the
final response. The user saw text appear during inference, then disappear.
This is the complete fix across all three layers: agent core, gateway
transport, and all UI surfaces (desktop + Ink TUI).
The verify-on-stop and pre_verify paths flagged the assistant's attempted
final answer as _verification_stop_synthetic, suppressing it from both
state.db and the UI. The user only saw the terse post-verification reply.
Now the assistant response is real content: it's persisted to state.db and
emitted as an interim message via _emit_interim_assistant_message(force_display=True)
before the verification loop runs. Only the synthetic nudge messages keep
the synthetic flags. The turn finalizer drops nudges from live history and
compares content (not just role) to avoid duplicating a published candidate.
Message sequence repair collapses verification candidates in the
consecutive-assistant merge.
Wire agent.interim_assistant_callback both at construction (_agent_cbs())
and per-turn (defense-in-depth), emitting a new message.interim event with
{text, already_streamed}. Gated on display.interim_assistant_messages
(default true). Cleared in the finally block so a stale closure can't
fire on a later turn.
Add message.interim to the GatewayEventName union (apps/shared) and a
typed payload to the TUI's GatewayEvent discriminated union.
The TUI already had the segment-anchoring machinery (flushStreamingSegment +
finalTail) but had no handler for message.interim. Added recordInterimMessage
+ interimBoundaryIndex to seal segments mid-turn, and updated
recordMessageComplete to only dedupe segments after the interim boundary.
Replaced the fragile sealed-set approach with a proper interimBoundaryPending
state flag on ClientSessionState. finalizeInterimAssistantMessage finalizes
the streaming bubble in place (or creates a standalone one), rotates the
stream ID so next deltas create a new bubble, and sets the flag. When the
final text equals an already-sealed interim, they stay as distinct messages.
Extracted mergeFinalAssistantText() as a pure function in chat-messages.ts,
used by both completeAssistantMessage and finalizeInterimAssistantMessage.
Split the bidirectional dedup predicate: reasoning is a restatement only when
the final FULLY covers it. A short final ("Done.") no longer swallows a
longer reasoning block that merely starts with it.
Honor display.interim_assistant_messages (default true) across all layers:
the tui_gateway gates the callback, the desktop wires it to a nanostores
atom via use-hermes-config. Updated hermes_cli/config.py and
cli-config.yaml.example comments to document the Desktop behavior.
_split_segment_tokens now accepts posix=False and _find_ad_hoc_match tries
both posix modes so ad-hoc verification scripts with Windows backslash
paths are matched correctly. (response_previewed forwarding from #53553
is not included — our emit-interim + persist approach makes it unnecessary
since the attempted answer is now surfaced before the verification loop.)
- tsc: clean (desktop + TUI + shared)
- vitest desktop: 73/73 pass (7 interim-sealing + 5 mergeFinalAssistantText + 4 config atom)
- vitest TUI: 83/83 pass (4 new message.interim tests)
- python: 390 tests pass (340 tui_gateway + 33 verification/finalizer + 6 config gating + 3 evidence + 8 continuation budget)

* fix: prefix-match interim streamed content to avoid benign duplicate bubbles
_interim_content_was_streamed used exact equality (streamed == visible_content),
so a final response that was the streamed text plus a trailing delta — or a
partial stream before the verify nudge fired — failed the match and left
_response_was_previewed false. The turn then showed two bubbles (interim +
identical final) instead of settling the interim in place.
Relax to a prefix check (visible_content.startswith(streamed)) in both the
core match and the desktop's settle-in-place gate. The TUI already used
prefix matching via finalTail. The reverse direction (streamed longer than
final) is intentionally not matched — that could suppress a needed resend
in the gateway path where already_streamed=True calls on_segment_break().
* test(desktop): add partial-stream-then-nudge dedup edge case
Third edge case for the interim-sealing dedup: model streams part of its
answer via message.delta, verify nudge fires, interim seals the streamed
prefix, then the final response is the same text plus a trailing delta.
Asserts one bubble (not two) containing the full final text.
Acceptance protocol #2 — covers all three dedup edges:
1. interim == final (existing)
2. interim = strict prefix of final (existing)
3. partial-stream-then-nudge (this commit)

Replace the client-side GOOD_VIBES_RE detection with the backend `reaction`
event: on it, flash the status-bar heart and the pet's celebrate pose. Detection
now lives once in the core, so the TUI, CLI, and desktop stay in sync.
The MoA reference-block display (each reference model's output shown as a
labelled thinking block before the aggregator responds) previously existed
only in the classic CLI. The facade already emits moa.reference / moa.aggregating
through tool_progress_callback; this wires the TUI and desktop consumers.
- tui_gateway/server.py: _on_tool_progress relays moa.reference (label / text /
index / count) and moa.aggregating to the Ink/desktop client as their own
events.
- ui-tui: gatewayTypes adds the two event shapes; createGatewayEventHandler
routes them; turnController.recordMoaReference pushes a committed
thinking-style segment tagged with the source model. Shown regardless of
showReasoning — references ARE the mixture-of-agents process the user opted
into, not ordinary reasoning. moa.aggregating is a status-only transition
(no transcript entry).
- apps/desktop: use-message-stream appends each reference as a labelled
reasoning chunk via the existing reasoning disclosure; GatewayEventPayload
gains label/index/aggregator.
Tests: tui_gateway emit (3), Ink handler render + showReasoning-independence +
aggregating-no-segment (3). TUI typecheck/lint clean; desktop typecheck/lint
clean.
Bring apps/desktop and ui-tui to a clean state for typecheck, eslint,
and prettier:
- Run prettier across both trees (printWidth/wrap drift; prettier is not
CI-enforced for these JS projects, so main had accumulated drift).
- Apply eslint --fix for padding-line-between-statements and perfectionist
import/export sorting.
- Manual fixes for non-auto-fixable rules:
- remove unused node:net import in electron/main.cjs (uses Electron net)
- replace inline `typeof import(...)` annotations with top-level
`import type * as EnvModule` in two ui-tui test files
- scoped eslint-disable no-control-regex on intentional sentinel/ANSI
regexes (mathUnicode.ts, text.ts)
- resolve react-hooks/exhaustive-deps per-case: correct swapped/missing
deps, collapse redundant session.* members, and justified disables on
settings mount-only data-load effects to preserve run-once behavior
No behavior changes; test pass/fail counts are unchanged from the main
baseline.
Add the Ink pet sprite pane, the interactive /pet picker overlay, and live
pet switching/rescale driven by new tui_gateway RPCs (pet state, pet.scale,
per-state frames). Wires pet flash state and the picker into the TUI layout
and slash handler. Covered by the slash-handler test.
* feat(billing): nous_billing http client + BillingState core (phase 2b)
Phase 2b terminal-billing client foundation:
- hermes_cli/nous_billing.py: typed client for the 4 /api/billing/* endpoints
(state/charge/poll/auto-top-up). Raises typed errors (BillingScopeRequired,
BillingRateLimited, BillingAuthError) mapped from the live-verified contract;
fail-open is the caller's job. Idempotency-Key enforced client-side.
- agent/billing_view.py: surface-agnostic BillingState core + Decimal money
parsing (server emits decimal strings, not 2dp), fail-open builder,
idempotency-key gen, custom-amount validation.
- 51 unit tests (decimal parse/format, payload tiering, error->exception
matrix, fail-open, amount validation).
Plan: docs/plans/2026-06-13-001-phase-2b-terminal-billing-tui-plan.md
* feat(billing): billing:manage scope + lazy step-up re-auth (phase 2b)
- NOUS_BILLING_MANAGE_SCOPE constant.
- nous_token_has_billing_scope(): split-based scope check (no false-positive
substring match).
- step_up_nous_billing_scope(): re-runs the device flow requesting
billing:manage, reusing the held credential's portal/inference URLs + client_id
(so a preview stays a preview), persists like _login_nous but WITHOUT the model
picker. Returns True iff the minted token carries the scope (False when NAS
silently downscopes a non-admin / unticked grant).
Lazy step-up (plan D-A): normal login path unchanged; 403 insufficient_scope
from a billing call triggers this. 7 unit tests.
* feat(billing): billing JSON-RPC methods for the TUI (phase 2b)
billing.state / charge / charge_status / auto_reload / step_up in
tui_gateway/server.py. Return STRUCTURED success envelopes (result.ok +
result.error=<code>) rather than JSON-RPC-level errors, so the Ink rpc() promise
always resolves and the TUI branches on the typed billing error code
(insufficient_scope, rate_limited, no_payment_method, …) to render the right
affordance. Money serialized as decimal STRINGS + display strings. charge mints
+ echoes an idempotency_key for retry reuse. 16 unit tests.
* feat(billing): /billing CLI handler + command registry (phase 2b)
- CommandDef("billing", subcommands=buy|auto-reload|limit), added to
_SLACK_VIA_HERMES_ONLY so it routes via /hermes on Slack (keeps the 50-cap
parity test green, same as /credits).
- cli.py::_show_billing + screen helpers: all 5 screens (overview, buy→confirm→
poll, auto-reload, monthly-limit read-only). Reuses _prompt_text_input_modal /
_prompt_text_input (D-C). Non-interactive (_app is None) renders text + portal
deep-link, never prompts (R7). Decimal money end-to-end. 2s/5-min cancellable
poll loop; 429/503 = retry not failure; settled = ledger truth. Lazy step-up on
403 insufficient_scope. no_payment_method treated as mainline funnel-to-portal.
- 6 CLI tests; 156 command tests (incl. Slack/Telegram parity) green.
* feat(billing): /billing Ink TUI screens + tests (phase 2b)
- ui-tui/src/app/slash/commands/billing.ts: /billing TUI command covering all 5
screens — overview (text), buy <amt> → ConfirmReq → charge → non-blocking 2s/
5-min poll loop → settled/failed/timeout branches, auto-reload <below> <to> →
ConfirmReq → PATCH, limit (read-only). Reuses the existing ConfirmReq overlay
(D-C) — no bespoke component. Typed-error envelope branching: insufficient_scope
arms the lazy step-up confirm; no_payment_method/rate_limited/cap funnel to
portal. Client-side amount validation mirrors the server (bounds + 2dp).
- gatewayTypes.ts: Billing* response interfaces.
- registry.ts: register billingCommands.
- billingCommand.test.ts: 12 vitest cases (overview/gating/buy-confirm-poll-
settled/no_payment_method/step-up/limit/auto-reload/validation).
TUI build green; 12/12 vitest pass; slash tests pass once @hermes/ink is built.
* docs(billing): scrub private cross-repo references
NAS is a private repo — remove all references to it from the public PR:
- drop the cross-repo planning doc (planning scaffolding, not a deliverable;
the PR description documents the design)
- replace 'NAS' / 'PR #412 preview' mentions in code + test comments with
generic 'the server' / 'a preview deployment'
* docs(billing): scrub final NAS reference in step-up docstring
* docs(billing): drop dangling plan-doc refs
The phase-2b plan doc was removed in the cross-repo scrub (300afcc0b)
but two module docstrings still pointed at it. Drop the dead refs.
* feat(billing): interactive /billing overlay + step-up UX, portal-URL & token fixes
Adds the interactive /billing TUI overlay and hardens the terminal-billing
client across CLI and TUI.
- TUI: full /billing overlay state machine (overview to buy to confirm,
auto-reload, read-only monthly limit) reusing the existing confirm overlay.
- Step-up: surface the verification link in-transcript and open the browser
via the TUI's own opener (the device flow runs in the headless gateway, so a
printed URL was being dropped); run the step-up handler off the main loop and
emit the link as an out-of-band event so the gateway stays responsive.
- Step-up copy is scope-accurate ("Billing permission granted") and re-checks
/state so it never claims "enabled" when the org kill-switch is still off.
- Portal deep-links resolve to absolute URLs against the active portal base
(the server emits them relative) - fixes a bare "/billing?topup=open" link.
- Billing calls refresh an expired access token via the stored refresh token
instead of reporting a false "not logged in".
- Optimistic funnel: advise "set up a saved card on the portal" up front when
no card is on file (advisory, not a hard gate).
- Token resolution is cached briefly so the 2s charge poll loop stops
re-locking + re-reading the auth store on every tick; 401 re-resolves fresh.
- Remove the temporary demo-mode shims.
Validation: 87 Python billing tests, 88 TS tests (billing command + gateway
event handler), tsc clean, ink + ui-tui builds green.
* docs(billing): add /billing TUI screenshots for PR
* fix(cli): guard _last_invalidate on bare instances; update stale prompt-fallback test
The UI-invalidate throttle read self._last_invalidate unconditionally, which
raised AttributeError on HermesCLI instances built without __init__ (the
thread-safety test's object.__new__ shell). Guard the read with getattr.
The off-main-thread branch of _prompt_text_input was changed (#23185) to cancel
cleanly to None instead of falling back to a bare input() that would hang on the
slash-worker thread; the test still asserted the old direct-input fallback.
Update it to assert the current intended behavior: returns None, calls neither
run_in_terminal nor input(), and does not hang.
Cherry-picked from #39840 by @flyinhigh and rebased cleanly on main.
- Defer config fetch in createGatewayEventHandler until gateway.ready to
avoid render-phase RPC that can mutate transcript state and trigger
React error 301 in embedded dashboard PTYs.
- Use undici WebSocket fallback when globalThis.WebSocket is unavailable
(Node attach mode and sidecar mirror sockets).
- Add regression tests for both fixes.

Collapse the verbose multi-line rationale comments across the TUI/desktop/
backend approval surfaces into single-line "why" notes, and derive
APPROVAL_OPTS_NO_ALWAYS from APPROVAL_OPTS instead of re-listing it.
No behavior change.
When a tirith content-security warning is present the approval backend
forces allow_permanent=False and silently downgrades an "always" choice to
session scope (the persistence loop in check_all_command_guards only honors
"always" → permanent when no tirith finding exists). But the gateway notify
payload that drives the TUI and the Electron desktop app never carried that
flag, so both surfaces always rendered "Always allow" — offering a permanent
allow the backend would quietly refuse to persist.
Plumb allow_permanent end-to-end:
- tools/approval.py: include `allow_permanent: not has_tirith` in the gateway
approval_data the notify callback emits as `approval.request`.
- ui-tui: thread `allowPermanent` through the event handler, gateway types,
and ApprovalReq; ApprovalPrompt drops the "always" option (and renumbers the
quick-pick keys) when it's false.
- apps/desktop: thread `allow_permanent` through the gateway payload type, the
per-session approval store, and the inline ApprovalBar, which now hides the
"Always allow…" dropdown item when permanent allow is disallowed — reusing
the existing DropdownMenu / confirm-Dialog UI.
The desktop/TUI render path for approvals already landed in #38578 (the root
cause of approvals not surfacing in the GUI); this completes the salvage of
#37856 by carrying allow_permanent across both surfaces. #37856's original
thread-local _block() approach is dropped: desktop/TUI approvals resolve via
approval.respond → resolve_gateway_approval (the per-session queue), not the
_block()/request_id correlation, so a worker-thread callback waiting on _block
would never be released by the real UI.
Tests: gateway notify payload carries allow_permanent (True without tirith,
False with a tirith warning); ui-tui approvalAction reduced option set +
event-handler allowPermanent propagation; desktop store round-trip + the
ApprovalBar showing/hiding "Always allow".

* feat(tui): HERMES_DEV_CREDITS live-spend dev readout (L0 tracer for usage-aware credits)
L0 of the usage-aware-credits feature: a dev-only, env-gated tracer that
exercises the real header -> CreditsState -> TUI pipe end-to-end behind
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS, de-risking the L1/L5 build before the notice policy exists.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: CreditsState + parse_credits_headers (headers are
strings -> paid_access via == "true", never bool(); retain-last-known; only
subscription_micros may be negative; *_usd kept verbatim).
- run_agent.py: _capture_credits / get_credits_state / get_credits_spent_micros,
session-start baseline latch, + dev-gated "credits" capture log.
- agent/chat_completion_helpers.py: capture on the streaming response.
- agent/agent_init.py: init _credits_state + _credits_session_start_micros.
- tui_gateway/server.py: _get_usage emits dev_credits_spent_micros only when flagged.
- ui-tui appChrome.tsx / types.ts: cents delta status segment + "(dev credits)" banner.
Off by default; silent for normal users. Validated live against staging
(capture log delta matches the TUI segment). Throwaway consumer (readout/log/
banner); credits_tracker + the capture plumbing are the real feature foundation.
* test(credits): lock parser under 9-state matrix + harden validation (L2)
Add tests/agent/test_credits_tracker.py with 92 tests covering the 9-state
matrix (healthy, sub_90pct, grant_exhausted, purchased_only, tool_pool_free,
depleted, debt, missing, no_org) plus validation edge cases: version strict==1
with warn-once latch for v>1, bool-string trap (paid_access/tool_pool_gated_off
== "true"/"false", never bool()), half-pair subscription limit treated as
both-absent while parse succeeds, USD regex ^-?\d+\.\d{2}$, non-int micros
→ None, negative non-subscription micros → None, as_of_ms junk → None, zero
limit ZeroDivision guard.
Harden agent/credits_tracker.py to match the spec:
- Add tool_pool_micros/tool_pool_gated_off/from_header fields to CreditsState
- Add depleted property (== not paid_access, never remaining==0)
- Change used_fraction guard to key off subscription_limit_micros (the actual
denominator) not denominator_kind (metadata)
- Replace fail-soft _safe_int with a sentinel-returning variant; full validation
now returns None on any malformed field rather than silently defaulting
- Add module-level warn-once latch for version > 1
- Add USD regex validation; add denominator_kind allow-list check
- Parse x-nous-tool-pool-* prefix headers (not x-nous-credits-tool-pool-*)
* feat(credits): notice spine — AgentNotice + notice_callback/notice_clear_callback + TUI binding (L1)
L1 of usage-aware credits: the driver-agnostic notice delivery spine that L4's
policy will fire through and L5's TUI render will consume.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: AgentNotice dataclass (text/level/kind/ttl_ms/key/id;
kind defaults "sticky", kept TTL-expressive for a future config seam).
- run_agent.py: AIAgent gains notice_callback + notice_clear_callback slots and
_emit_notice / _emit_notice_clear emitters (swallow all callback errors — a
notice must never break the agent loop; no-op when unbound).
- agent/agent_init.py: thread both callbacks through init_agent.
- tui_gateway/server.py: bind both in _agent_cbs → notification.show / notification.clear
WS events (snake_case payload, matching the existing gateway-event convention).
- ui-tui/src/gatewayTypes.ts: notification.show / notification.clear arms on GatewayEvent.
- tests/run_agent/test_notice_spine.py: 15 tests (emitter fire + fail-open + no-op,
signature threading, TUI binding payload shape).
Messaging push is out of v1 (binds neither callback). CLI binding + the TUI render/
decode land with L4 (firing) and L5 (render) so turn-end flush is wired correctly.
* feat(credits): threshold reconciliation policy + tests (L4.1)
* feat(credits): wire threshold policy into capture + latch (L4.2)
After a fresh header parse, _capture_credits runs evaluate_credits_notices against
the agent's _credits_latch and emits the result — clears first, then shows (so a
recovered depletion clears before the "restored" success lands, and depleted wins
the latest-wins slot). Gated on a bound notice_callback: messaging (no callbacks)
still caches state for /usage but runs no policy. Parse stays fail-open (miss →
keep last-known); the eval/emit path warns on failure rather than swallowing, so a
depletion-notice bug can't vanish silently.
- run_agent.py: _capture_credits split into parse (swallow→miss) + policy (warn);
latch lazy-guarded (object.__new__ safety).
- agent/agent_init.py: init agent._credits_latch = {"active": set(), "seen_below_90": False}.
* feat(tui): render credits notices in the status bar (L5, Strategy B)
The TUI now renders the notification.show / notification.clear gateway events the
agent emits — a level-colored notice overrides the status/verb slot when not busy.
- Notice state machine on turnController (pendingNotice + dedicated noticeTimer +
show/clear/applyNotice/flushPendingNotice/clearNoticeState). createGatewayEventHandler
decodes the events and delegates.
- Render priority busy > notice > status (appChrome StatusRule); notice text rendered
verbatim (its glyph comes from the policy), shrinkable so it never clips model│ctx;
dev-credits banner + Δ segment preserved. UiState.notice is snake_case (matches wire).
- Busy-wins: a notice arriving mid-turn is held and flushed at the THREE turn-end sites
(recordMessageComplete / interruptTurn / recordError) — never idle(), which reset()
also calls (would leak across sessions); reset() clears instead.
- Dedicated noticeTimer (never statusTimer); TTL starts on visibility with an id-guard;
latest-wins cancels the prior timer; clear is key-matched (no-op on mismatch); a sticky
survives a turn (flush no-ops with no pending); session reset clears (no cross-session leak).
- 20 tests (handler/turnController logic incl. R3-C2 timer isolation + render priority).
* feat(credits): cold-start seed for new Nous sessions (L3)
A genuinely-new Nous session has no inference header yet, so seed credits state from
the authoritative GET /api/oauth/account snapshot at session start (in the new-session
branch of _restore_or_build_system_prompt — inline, since the on_session_start plugin
hook gets no agent reference). The seed runs the shared notice policy, so a session that
opens already depleted warns IMMEDIATELY rather than only after the first turn.
- Maps the nested account fields (paid_service_access → paid_access; total_usable /
subscription / purchased on paid_service_access_info; rollover on subscription), each
None-guarded; float dollars → micros via round(d*1e6), *_usd left "" (render formats
from micros — never synthesize a verbatim usd from a float).
- Magnitudes-only: no monthlyCredits on the endpoint → subscription_limit_* unset →
used_fraction None → no warn90 from the seed (% only once a header lands, per D-E).
- Provider-guarded to Nous; fail-open (any error leaves _credits_state None, never
blocks startup); paid_access unknown ⇒ True (never falsely depleted).
- run_agent.py: extracted the warm-path policy/emit block into a shared
_emit_credits_notices() so capture and the seed fire notices identically.
* feat(credits): /usage Nous credits magnitudes view + recovery trigger (L6)
Add Nous credit dollar magnitudes to /usage (subscription / top-up / total
+ rollover + renewal + portal CTA), magnitudes-only per v1 (no % until the
account endpoint exposes a denominator). Reuses the existing account-usage
render machinery via a new pure build_nous_credits_snapshot() that maps a
NousPortalAccountInfo to an AccountUsageSnapshot; no nous branch is added to
fetch_account_usage (keeps the per-provider boundary intact).
CLI /usage also doubles as a depletion-recovery trigger: a force_fresh
account fetch, kept in a SEPARATE local so it never clobbers the
header-sourced agent._credits_state (which alone carries used_fraction). If
paid access recovered while credits.depleted is latched and a notice
consumer is bound, it reuses agent._emit_credits_notices() to clear it.
Gateway /usage displays magnitudes only — messaging binds no notice
consumer, so it performs no recovery emit.
Fail-open throughout: any portal hiccup leaves /usage unaffected.
* refactor(credits): dedupe HERMES_DEV_CREDITS flag parse via shared helpers
The dev-flag truthy check was inlined in three places. Replace with the shared
utils.is_truthy_value (run_agent.py, tui_gateway/server.py — also drops a
redundant inline `import os`) and a hoisted DEV_CREDITS_MODE export in
ui-tui/src/config/env.ts (consumed by appChrome, which also stops recomputing the
env check on every render). Behaviour-preserving; identical truthy set.
* fix(credits): cut dead /usage recovery trigger + bound portal fetches (L6 review)
Adversarial review found the /usage depletion-recovery trigger dead AND broken:
the CLI binds no notice_clear_callback, the TUI runs /usage in a separate
slash-worker subprocess (its own agent/latch), and the no-clobber rule made it
evaluate stale paid_access anyway. Recovery already happens on the next inference
(warm path), so the trigger was redundant — remove it and stop the depleted
notice over-promising.
- cli.py: remove the dead recovery block; bound the /usage portal fetch with a
10s wall-clock timeout (ThreadPoolExecutor) like the per-provider fetch —
urllib's per-socket timeout is not a wall-clock guarantee.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: reword the depleted CTA to "run /usage for balance"
(no false recovery promise; /usage shows fresh magnitudes, sticky clears next turn).
- agent/conversation_loop.py: same wall-clock timeout on the cold-start seed fetch
so a stalled portal can't hang session startup; tidy its time import.
* chore(credits): dev notice-state fixtures (HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE)
Throwaway dev scaffolding to exercise the notice pipeline without real spend or
Redis seeding. Set HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE to a state name (healthy / sub_90pct
/ grant_exhausted / depleted / clear) or a file path whose contents name a state
(re-read each turn → flip states live for recovery testing). _capture_credits
injects the chosen CreditsState instead of parsing real headers and runs the
shared notice policy. Deletable with the rest of the HERMES_DEV_CREDITS scaffolding.
* feat(credits): /usage monthly-grant % gauge
The portal /api/oauth/account subscription block now carries monthly_credits
(the per-period grant allowance, the % denominator). The consumer parsed
monthly_charge but dropped monthly_credits, so /usage stayed magnitudes-only.
Capture monthly_credits into NousPortalSubscriptionInfo + _subscription_from_payload.
build_nous_credits_snapshot emits a Subscription usage window (real % used, routed
through the existing render machinery) when monthly_credits is a finite positive
denominator and credits_remaining is finite and <= cap; otherwise it degrades to
magnitudes-only (older portals, rollover-over-cap, or non-finite payloads).
Guards (adversarial-review-driven): reject non-finite operands (json.loads parses
bare NaN/Infinity by default → would render $nan + a false 100% used), reject
bools, guard div-by-zero (cap>0), and suppress the gauge when remaining > cap
(rollover spanning the period makes the cap a nonsensical denominator → the
$X-of-$Y detail would read as a contradiction). Debt (remaining<0) clamps to 100%.
Money rule preserved: the ratio + magnitudes are computed from numeric float
account fields via display formatting, never by parsing a server *_usd string
(there are none on these dataclasses).
13 gauge tests added (tests/agent/test_nous_credits_gauge.py).
* fix(credits): show /usage Nous block whenever a Nous account is present
/usage runs in a slash-worker subprocess whose resolved inference provider is
often not "nous" even when the user has a Nous account, so gating the Nous
credits block on (provider == "nous") hid it entirely — the account data was
fully available but never rendered.
Gate instead on "a Nous account is logged in": a cheap local auth-state lookup
(get_provider_auth_state('nous') has an access_token) decides whether to attempt
the portal fetch, regardless of which provider inference runs on. In the gateway
the block is also lifted out of the 'if provider:' scope so a Nous-credentialled
user with another (or no) resident inference provider still sees their balance.
Fail-open and the per-fetch wall-clock timeout are preserved.
* fix(credits): show /usage Nous block when there's no live agent (TUI slash-worker)
In the TUI, /usage runs in a slash-worker subprocess that resumes the session
WITHOUT building an agent (self.agent is None), so _show_usage early-returned
"(._.) No active agent" before ever reaching the Nous credits block — which is
agent-independent (a portal fetch gated on Nous auth-state). Extract the block
into _print_nous_credits_block() and run it at the no-agent / no-calls
early-returns too (returns True if it printed, so the fallback message only
shows when there's genuinely nothing).
Verified live against staging: the block + monthly-grant gauge now render in the
slash-worker /usage path (previously hidden). The plain CLI REPL + messaging
paths are unchanged (they have a live agent).
* feat(credits): escalating 50/75/90 usage bands (single status line)
Replace the lone 90%-used warning with three escalating bands (50 info, 75 warn,
90 warn) shown as ONE status-bar line: it displays the highest band the
subscription grant has crossed, replaces the line as usage climbs, steps back
down on recovery, and clears below 50%. No stacking, no per-turn churn.
Bands live in a tunable CREDITS_USAGE_BANDS list; the policy derives everything
from it. Single notice key (credits.usage) with a usage_band latch field so the
notice only re-emits when the band actually changes. The crossing gate
(seen_below_90) is preserved so a fresh live session that opens mid-range stays
quiet until it has been observed below the lowest band (cold-start primes it when
it wants an open-high warning). Denominator math unchanged: % = subscription
grant burn (cap - grant_remaining)/cap, clamped [0,1]; top-up never moves the %.
Migrated test_credits_policy.py to the new key + added TestUsageBands (climb,
step-down, recovery-clear, idempotent, inclusive boundaries).
* feat(credits): hydrate notices at session OPEN via shared seed (TUI + first-turn)
Notices previously only fired inside a conversation turn (first message), so a
session that opened already depleted / past a usage band showed nothing at
'ready'. Extract the cold-start seed into a shared seed_credits_at_session_start()
and call it (a) in the TUI/desktop agent build right after the notice callback is
wired (fires at 'ready', before any message) and (b) as the first-turn fallback in
conversation_loop. Idempotent (skips once _credits_state exists) and fail-open.
The seed now maps monthly_credits -> subscription_limit_micros +
denominator_kind='subscription_cap', so used_fraction is computable at seed time
and usage-band warnings (not just depletion) hydrate on open. Primes the crossing
latch so a session opening already in a band warns immediately. Degrades to
depletion-only when monthly_credits is absent (older portals).
Adds test_credits_cold_start.py covering open-at-band, depletion, debt, no-cap
degradation, and the shared seed (fires/idempotent/skips-non-nous).
* feat(credits): /usage monthly-grant % gauge + fixture support + TUI surfacing
agent/account_usage.py: build_nous_credits_snapshot emits a subscription %% gauge
when the portal supplies a positive, finite monthly_credits denominator with
remaining <= cap (guards reject NaN/Infinity and rollover-over-cap, which would
render $nan or a contradictory $X-of-$Y); degrades to magnitudes-only otherwise.
Adds shared nous_credits_lines() (auth-gated, wall-clock-bounded portal fetch) so
the CLI and TUI /usage render the same block, and _snapshot_from_credits_state()
so HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE drives /usage offline too.
TUI: session.usage RPC carries credits_lines (agent-independent) and the /usage
panel renders them regardless of API-call count or resume state — previously the
TUI's separate /usage implementation only showed token counts.
Money rule preserved: %% and magnitudes come from numeric float account fields via
display formatting, never by parsing a server *_usd string.
* feat(credits): CLI REPL inline notices (parity with TUI)
The plain CLI agent bound no notice callbacks, so credit notices were TUI-only.
Bind notice_callback/notice_clear_callback on the CLI AIAgent; _on_notice renders
a single level-colored line above the prompt (error red / warn yellow / success
green / info dim) via _cprint, and seed credits at session open so a depletion or
usage-band warning shows before the first message — the same hydration the TUI
got. _on_notice_clear is a no-op (the REPL prints lines, no persistent slot).
* test(credits): add sub_50pct + sub_75pct dev fixtures for the new usage bands
The fixture set jumped 10%% -> 90%%; add sub_50pct (uf 0.5 -> band 50 info) and
sub_75pct (uf 0.75 -> band 75 warn) so the new escalating bands are exercisable
via HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE across all three surfaces (notice, session-open
seed, /usage gauge).
* fix(credits): usage-band notice clears on next prompt (not sticky-forever)
A 50/75/90 usage heads-up was sticky and camped the status bar indefinitely. Clear
the visible credits.usage notice when a new turn starts (startMessage), so it shows
until your next prompt then yields. The server latch is unchanged, so it won't
re-nag at the same band — it only re-shows when the band actually changes (climb)
or clears when usage drops below the lowest band. Depletion stays sticky.
* refactor(credits): consolidate the /usage credits block behind nous_credits_lines()
The CLI (_print_nous_credits_block) and the messaging gateway (_handle_usage_command)
each re-implemented the auth-gate + portal fetch + render, and both bypassed the
dev-fixture short-circuit that only the TUI honored — so /usage ignored
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE on the CLI and in chat. Route both through the shared
agent.account_usage.nous_credits_lines() helper: one fetch/render path, one auth
gate, and the fixture works on every surface (~60 fewer duplicated lines).
The gateway usage test recorded only the last asyncio.to_thread call; /usage now
dispatches both the account fetch and the credits fetch, so it records every call
and matches the account fetch by its provider arg.
* fix(credits): keep the /usage gauge type-safe and log its fail-open path
_is_finite_num is now a TypeGuard[float], so the type checker narrows the gauge
operands (monthly_credits / credits_remaining) and the magnitudes passed to
_fmt_usd through it — no more None-operand warnings on the arithmetic. Add a debug
breadcrumb on the nous_credits_lines portal-fetch fail-open so a dead /usage block
is diagnosable in agent.log without a dev flag.
* fix(credits): harden the header tracker — prod-leak gate, hot-path probe, fire-and-forget seed
- Prod-leak guard: dev fixtures (HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE) now also require
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS, so a stray fixture var can't surface fabricated balances on a
real account. Matches the documented run workflow (both vars set together).
- Hot-path probe: parse_credits_headers checks for the version sentinel header
before allocating a lowercased copy of the response headers — skips that work on
every non-Nous API call. Behaviour-identical and still case-insensitive.
- Fire-and-forget seed: the real portal fetch in seed_credits_at_session_start now
runs in a daemon thread, so a slow/unreachable portal never delays session "ready"
(previously blocked up to 10s). The dev-fixture path stays synchronous; the thread
re-checks idempotency before hydrating (a live header may land first).
- Diagnostics: debug breadcrumbs on the parse and seed fail-open paths so a crashed
parser / dead seed is distinguishable from a legitimate no-headers miss.
Cold-start tests set HERMES_DEV_CREDITS alongside the fixture to match the gate.
* test(tui): fix env-timing in the StatusRule dev-credits assertion
DEV_CREDITS_MODE is read once at module load (config/env), so mutating
process.env.HERMES_DEV_CREDITS inside the test couldn't flip it — the dev-banner
assertion only passed if the env was exported before vitest started, and failed in a
normal run. Move that assertion to a sibling file that mocks config/env with
DEV_CREDITS_MODE: true (scoped, no module-reset / React-identity hazard).
* test(credits): cover the dev-fixture /usage render and usage-band clear-on-prompt
- _snapshot_from_credits_state (the offline /usage renderer) had no direct test:
lock the gauge math, the verbatim *_usd magnitudes, the depletion line and the
fixture marker, plus the no-cap (no gauge) and None-state cases.
- turnController.startMessage had no test for clearing the credits.usage notice on
the next prompt while leaving credits.depleted sticky.
* feat(credits): deliver credit notices over messaging gateways
Bind notice_callback/notice_clear_callback on the per-turn gateway agent
so usage-band / depletion / restored notices reach Telegram/Discord/Slack/
etc. Previously the messaging gateway bound neither callback, so the agent's
_emit_credits_notices early-returned and a chat user crossing a band got
nothing unless they ran /usage manually.
- render_notice_line(): AgentNotice -> single plaintext line (level glyph +
text), plaintext-only so it renders uniformly without per-platform escaping.
Fail-soft on malformed/empty notices.
- Standalone push for every notice (messaging has no persistent status bar):
route through the shared _deliver_platform_notice rail (honors private/
public delivery + thread metadata), scheduled onto the gateway loop via
safe_schedule_threadsafe from the agent's sync worker thread — same pattern
as _status_callback_sync.
- The fired-once latch lives on the cached (reused-in-place) agent and
persists across turns, so a band crosses once -> one push, no per-turn
re-nag. Re-fires only after idle-eviction rebuilds the agent (a reminder).
- Recovery ('Credit access restored') rides the show path (emitted as a
success notice, not a clear). notice_clear_callback is a no-op: a sent
platform message can't be cleanly retracted.
Tests: render glyph/levels/fail-soft + public/private delivery seam through
_deliver_platform_notice + no-adapter no-op.
* fix(credits): don't double the glyph on messaging notices
render_notice_line prepended a per-level glyph, but the notice policy already
bakes the glyph into the text (and the TUI + CLI render it verbatim) — so every
credit notice over messaging came out doubled ("⚠ ⚠ Credits 90% used",
"⛔ ✕ Credit access paused"). Emit the text verbatim instead; drop the now-dead
level→glyph map.
The render tests fed glyph-less text (and the success case only checked
startswith), so the doubling slipped through. Rework them around the verbatim
contract and add an end-to-end regression that runs real evaluate_credits_notices
output through render_notice_line and asserts the line is returned unchanged.
When a clarify prompt times out (backend _block returns an empty answer
after the configured timeout) or is dismissed with Esc/Ctrl+C, the live
ClarifyPrompt overlay was torn down by turnController.idle() ->
resetFlowOverlays() with no persistent transcript record. The question and
options vanished from the screen while the agent's follow-up still referred
to "the options above".
The answered path already persists the question + answer; only the
unanswered exits left no trace. This asymmetry is the bug.
Fix (TUI layer only, no Python/protocol change):
- formatAbandonedClarify() in lib/text.ts renders the question + the same
1-based numbered option list shown by ClarifyPrompt, plus a reason
('timed out' / 'cancelled').
- Timeout: createGatewayEventHandler flushes a still-live clarify into the
transcript as a plain system line when the clarify tool's own tool.complete
fires. A live capture of the event stream confirmed this is the only point
where the overlay is still set after a timeout: the sequence is
clarify.request -> (timeout) -> tool.complete -> message.complete, with NO
intervening message.start/tool.start. On a real answer, answerClarify()
clears the overlay before tool.complete arrives, so the hook no-ops there
(no double-write); a per-requestId guard set is belt-and-braces.
- Explicit cancel: answerClarify('') persists the prompt as a system line
instead of a transient 'prompt cancelled' flash.
System lines always render (unlike trail lines, which /details can hide),
so the record reliably survives on screen as standard output.
Verified live in the TUI: an Esc-cancelled clarify now leaves the question +
options + '(cancelled - no selection)' in the transcript after the turn ends.
Tests: formatAbandonedClarify unit cases + gateway-handler behavioral cases
(persist on clarify tool.complete, no flush on a non-clarify tool.complete,
no double-persist on repeat tool.complete, no-op when the overlay was already
cleared by an answer).
* fix(tui): persist gateway lifecycle breadcrumbs to crash log
A backend SIGTERM (`=== SIGTERM received ===` in tui_gateway_crash.log) is
always a parent action — `gw.kill()` (graceful-exit on a signal to Node, or an
explicit /quit) or `start()` replacing a live child. #31051 added parent-side
lifecycle breadcrumbs but left them in an in-memory CircularBuffer that dies
with the process, so SIGTERM crash reports arrive with no parent context and no
way to tell a signal-driven kill from a memory-critical `process.exit(137)`
(which closes the child's stdin → clean EOF, not SIGTERM).
Persist the death-explaining breadcrumbs (spawn / transport-exit / child-exit /
replace-live-child / kill-reason / startup-timeout) plus the graceful-exit
signal name and the memory-critical exit into the same crash log the Python
side writes, so they interleave by timestamp next to the child's panic entry —
making these recurring reports diagnosable.
Gated off under VITEST so unit tests stay hermetic.
* feat(tui): auto-recover the session when the gateway dies unexpectedly
When a still-owned gateway child dies while the TUI is alive (a crash, OOM
process.exit, or a SIGTERM/SIGHUP forwarded to it), the app currently nulls the
session and drops to an inert "gateway exited" state — the user loses a long
session and has to restart + re-run everything. That single behavior is most of
the "TUI doesn't survive heavy work" complaint, independent of what does the
killing.
The 'exit' event only reaches this handler on an *unexpected* death: a user
/quit calls process.exit before it fires, and a replaced child is identity-
skipped in GatewayClient. So on exit we now respawn the gateway and resume the
session that was live (history is persisted in SQLite) via a one-shot
recoverSidRef the next gateway.ready consults before forging a new session. The
in-flight reply is lost (it died with the process) but the session survives.
Bounded to GATEWAY_RECOVERY_LIMIT (3) attempts per GATEWAY_RECOVERY_WINDOW_MS
(60s) so a gateway that crash-loops on startup can't spawn-storm; past the
budget we fall back to the inert state.
* fix(tui): sanitize newlines + soften SIGTERM-cause claim in parentLog

- recordParentLifecycle collapses embedded \r\n so a multi-line value (e.g. an
error message) stays a single breadcrumb and can't masquerade as a separate
entry or as the child's panic output sharing the crash log.
- Reword the header: a backend SIGTERM is *usually* a parent action but can come
straight from an external supervisor (s6, cgroup OOM, stray kill); the
presence/absence of a [tui-parent] line before the child's panic is precisely
what disambiguates the two.
* fix(tui): clear sid during recovery + extract/test the recovery budget
Address PR review:
- Null `sid` immediately in the gateway exit handler. While the gateway is down
(busy=false) the old sid would otherwise let sid-guarded effects (the 1.5s
session.active_list poll, queue drain) fire RPCs at a dead/respawning gateway.
recoverSidRef carries the session forward; resumeById restores sid on ready.
- Extract the respawn budget into a pure evalRecovery() (gatewayRecovery.ts) and
unit-test the bound: allows GATEWAY_RECOVERY_LIMIT within the window, blocks
past it, and prunes attempts older than the window so recovery re-arms.
* fix(tui): cap parent-log breadcrumb length (PR review)
Truncate a single persisted breadcrumb to 4096 chars (matching GatewayClient's
in-memory log-line cap) so a pathological value — e.g. a giant error string —
can't bloat the shared crash log or add noticeable blocking on the synchronous
append during a failure path. Covered by a test.
* fix(tui): keep "recovering session…" status visible during resume (PR review)
resumeById() synchronously sets status to 'resuming…' on entry, so the
recovery branch now applies its 'recovering session…' label *after* calling
resumeById — the distinct label sticks for the duration of the resume RPC
(which later flips to 'ready') instead of being immediately clobbered. Test
updated to assert the ordering.
* fix(tui): keep recovery budget alive across a startup crash-loop (PR review)
deadSid was read from getUiState().sid, which the first exit nulls — so if the
respawned gateway crash-looped before gateway.ready (resumeById never restored
sid), later exits saw null and abandoned the session after a single attempt,
defeating the bounded retry budget.
Lift the whole decision into a pure planGatewayRecovery() that falls back to the
pending recoverSidRef target when the live sid is already cleared, and unit-test
the crash-loop sequence (keeps retrying the same session up to the limit, then
falls back to inert). Supersedes evalRecovery.
* chore(tui): drop non-null assertion + clarify breadcrumb cap comment (PR review)
- Recovery branch guards on `recoverSidRef && recoverSid` so the ref write needs
no `!` assertion (avoids a future unsafe refactor).
- Reword the parentLog cap comment: it slices the value to 4096 chars and
appends a short truncation marker (so the written line is slightly longer),
rather than implying a strict 4096-byte limit.
* chore(tui): soften "absence ⇒ external signal" + "any in-flight reply" (PR review)
- parentLog header: a missing [tui-parent] line only *suggests* an external
signal (the logger is best-effort: VITEST-disabled, failed append swallowed),
not a definitive conclusion.
- Recovery notice says "any in-flight reply was lost" since the gateway can also
exit while idle.
The TUI already ships a rich /agents spawn-tree dashboard (live tree,
timeline, per-child tokens/cost/files/tools, kill/pause), but nothing
surfaced it — during delegation the transcript stayed quiet and users
had to already know to type /agents.
Drop a one-time transient activity hint ("subagents working · /agents
to watch live") the first time a turn starts delegating, matching the
existing "· /logs to inspect" house style. Guards keep it unobtrusive:
- fires at most once per turn (resets on message.start)
- silent when the /agents overlay is already open
- gated by display.tui_agents_nudge (default true)
Hooked on subagent.start, not subagent.spawn_requested: the delegate
progress callback in tools/delegate_tool.py only relays start/complete
to the gateway and drops spawn_requested, so start is the first
delegation event the TUI reliably receives. spawn_requested is wired
too for the future case, guarded once-per-turn.
Adds the display.tui_agents_nudge config default and gatewayTypes entry.
* fix(tui): ignore late thinking deltas after completion
Prevent stale reasoning events from repainting the TUI status after a turn has already completed and the UI is idle.
* test(tui): restore timers after thinking delta assertion
Keep fake timer cleanup in a finally block so assertion failures cannot leak timer mode into later tests.
* fix(tui): surface verbose tool details
Emit redacted structured verbose args/results to the TUI so /verbose verbose can show full tool detail without reopening stdout, and fail closed if redaction is unavailable.
Salvages #29011.

* fix(tui): address verbose detail review
Label verbose tool failures as errors, cover forced verbose reasoning, and avoid new diff type warnings from the redaction regression tests.
* fix(tui): bound verbose tool payloads
Cap verbose tool detail text before emitting JSON-RPC events and preserve verbose results on inline diff completions.
* fix(tui): align termux argv test with gc flag
Update the stale TUI launch expectation so the Termux freshness path matches the current direct Node argv.

Accept delegation timeout/error statuses in the TUI subagent model, normalize unknown status strings defensively, and harden /agents overlay rendering/sorting so unknown statuses cannot crash glyph/color lookup. Add regression tests for live event normalization and disk snapshot replay.
* fix(tui): close slash parity gaps with CLI
Route unsupported /skills subcommands through slash.exec, support /new <name>
titles, and handle /redraw natively so TUI behavior matches classic CLI. Also
filter gateway-only commands out of the TUI catalog while keeping /status
discoverable.
* fix(tui): run remaining CLI parity paths natively
Forward chat launch flags into the TUI runtime and handle live-session status
and skill reloads in the gateway process so TUI state no longer depends on the
slash worker's stale CLI instance.
* fix(tui): block stale snapshot restores
Prevent snapshot restore from running through the isolated slash worker because
it mutates disk state without refreshing the live TUI agent.
* chore: uptick
* fix(tui): guard async session title updates
Handle failures from the fire-and-forget session.title RPC so title-setting errors do not surface as unhandled promise rejections while preserving session-scoped messaging.
/goal was silently broken outside the classic CLI.
TUI: /goal was routed through the HermesCLI slash-worker subprocess,
which set the goal row in SessionDB but then called
_pending_input.put(state.goal) — the subprocess has no reader for that
queue, so the kickoff message was discarded. No post-turn judge was
wired into prompt.submit either, so even a manual kickoff would not
continue the goal loop. Intercept /goal in command.dispatch instead,
drive GoalManager directly, and return {type: send, notice, message}
so the TUI client renders the Goal-set notice and fires the kickoff.
Run the judge in _run_prompt_submit after message.complete, surface
the verdict via status.update {kind: goal}, and chain the continuation
turn after the running guard is released.
Gateway: _post_turn_goal_continuation was gated on
hasattr(adapter, 'send_message'), but adapters only expose send().
That branch was dead on every platform — users never saw
'✓ Goal achieved', 'Continuing toward goal', or budget-exhausted
messages. Replace the dead call with adapter.send(chat_id, content,
metadata) and drop a broken reference to self._loop.
Tests:
- tests/tui_gateway/test_goal_command.py — full /goal dispatch matrix
(set / status / pause / resume / clear / stop / done / whitespace)
plus regressions for slash.exec → 4018 and 'goal' staying in
_PENDING_INPUT_COMMANDS.
- tests/gateway/test_goal_verdict_send.py — locks in the adapter.send
path for done / continue / budget-exhausted and verifies the hook
no-ops when no goal is set or the adapter lacks send().
The Ink TUI (\`hermes --tui\` + dashboard \`/chat\`) had no wiring for the
background self-improvement review. When the review fired and patched
a skill or saved a memory entry, the change landed but the user had
no visual indication it happened — only the CLI had a print surface
for the '💾 Self-improvement review: …' line.
Changes:
- tui_gateway/server.py: in _init_session, attach
agent.background_review_callback to an _emit('review.summary',
sid, {text}) closure. Wrapped in try/except so agents with locked
attribute slots don't break session startup.
- ui-tui/src/app/createGatewayEventHandler.ts: handle 'review.summary'
by routing ev.payload.text through sys(…), matching the existing
'background.complete' pattern. Empty / whitespace payloads are
ignored so the transcript never gets a blank system line.
- ui-tui/src/gatewayTypes.ts: extend the GatewayEvent discriminated
union with { type: 'review.summary', payload?: { text?: string } }.
Gateway platforms (Telegram, Discord, Slack, …) already route the
review summary via background_review_callback → post-delivery queue
in gateway/run.py, so they pick up the new 'Self-improvement review:'
prefix from the companion run_agent change with no platform edits.
Tests:
- tests/tui_gateway/test_review_summary_callback.py (Python, 2 tests):
_init_session attaches a callback that emits the right event; the
callback path survives agents that can't accept the attribute.
- ui-tui/src/__tests__/createGatewayEventHandler.test.ts (vitest, 2
new cases): review.summary events feed sys(...) with the full text;
empty / missing payloads are no-ops.
- TypeScript type-check passes.
- tui_gateway suite: 64/64 pass.
* fix(tui): offload manual compaction RPC
Route TUI session compression through the existing long-handler pool so slow compaction does not block other gateway RPCs.
* fix(tui): show compaction progress immediately
Print a local status line before the compress RPC starts so slow manual compaction does not look like a no-op.
* feat(tui): rich /compress feedback parity with CLI
Show pre-compaction message count and rough token estimate immediately, emit a status update so the bottom bar reflects ongoing compaction, and report a multi-line summary (headline + token delta + optional note) using the shared summarize_manual_compression helper.
* fix(tui): show live compaction estimate in transcript
Mirror compression progress status into the transcript so users see the backend message count and token estimate while /compress is still running.
* fix(tui): single live compaction line with spinner glyph
Drop the redundant local "compressing context..." placeholder and prefix the live backend status line with a braille spinner glyph so /compress reads as a single in-progress row.
* fix(tui): address review nits on /compress feedback
Reuse the precomputed token estimate inside _compress_session_history so the gateway does not redo the O(n) work while holding history_lock, keep the status bar pinned during long manual compactions instead of auto-restoring after 4s, and drop the redundant noop bullet that doubled with the system role glyph.
* fix(tui): release history_lock during compaction LLM call
Move the snapshot/commit pattern into _compress_session_history so the lock is held only across the in-memory bookkeeping, not during agent._compress_context. Also emit a final neutral status update from session.compress so the pinned compressing indicator clears even on errors.
* fix(tui): rebuild prompt cleanly + sync session_key after compress
Pass system_message=None so AIAgent._compress_context rebuilds the system prompt without nesting the cached identity block. Reuse the handler's pre-snapshotted history inside _compress_session_history to avoid a second O(n) copy under the lock. After compaction, when AIAgent._compress_context rotates session_id, sync the gateway session_key, migrate approval notify + yolo state, restart the slash worker, and clear the stale pending title. Mirrors HermesCLI._manual_compress.
* Avoid /compress lock re-entry in slash side effects.
Stop pre-locking history before _compress_session_history in slash command mirroring, keep session-key sync parity with manual compression, and add a regression test that asserts /compress is invoked without holding history_lock.
Emit browser.progress JSON-RPC notifications during the connect work and render them in the TUI as system transcript lines, so users see the same step-by-step status the base CLI prints instead of nothing for ~1m followed by a final result.
