#41076 makes `hermes plugins list` discover nested category plugins (e.g.
observability/nemo_relay). This adds the missing enable/disable mutation path
so those plugins can actually be toggled, and fixes two incomplete-update
breakages on the #41076 base.
Before: `hermes plugins enable nemo_relay` -> "Plugin 'nemo_relay' is not
installed or bundled." (exit 1), because cmd_enable/cmd_disable went through
_plugin_exists(), which only checked top-level plugins/<name>/.
Changes:
- Add _resolve_plugin_key(): resolve a bare manifest/leaf name OR a full
path-derived key (observability/nemo_relay) to the canonical key the runtime
loader gates on, reusing #41076's _discover_all_plugins(). A bare leaf name
ambiguous across two categories resolves to None rather than silently picking
one.
- cmd_enable/cmd_disable resolve first, persist the canonical key, and drop any
stale legacy bare-name alias so the enabled/disabled lists can't drift into a
contradictory state. _plugin_exists delegates to the same resolver.
- Fix#41076 base breakages: _discover_all_plugins now returns 6-tuples, but
web_server._merged_plugins_hub() still unpacked 5 (ValueError on the
dashboard plugins-hub endpoint) and several test_plugins_cmd_list.py fixtures
were still 5-tuples. Both updated; the hub status check is now key-aware.
Verified e2e on the real CLI + runtime loader (isolated HERMES_HOME):
`hermes plugins enable nemo_relay` writes observability/nemo_relay to
config.yaml and the loader then loads it (enabled=True, error=None); a stale
bare-name alias is cleared on disable; the dashboard _merged_plugins_hub() runs
without crashing. Adds resolution + enable/disable tests; full
tests/hermes_cli/test_plugins_cmd* + web_server plugin tests green.
Follow-up to #41076 (#41066). Branched from that PR's head.
_discover_all_plugins() previously did a flat iterdir() scan, missing
all category-namespaced plugins (web/*, image_gen/*, browser/*, video_gen/*).
Now recurses up to 2 levels deep, matching PluginManager._scan_directory_level().
Also fixes _plugin_status() to check both manifest name AND path-derived
key against enabled/disabled sets, so category plugins like 'web/tavily'
show correct status when enabled via config.
On Windows with non-UTF-8 console encodings (e.g. cp949, cp1252),
StreamHandler emits raise UnicodeEncodeError when log messages contain
characters outside the console codepage — such as the em-dash (U+2014)
in the session hygiene message.
This crashed the gateway process silently, leaving no diagnostic output.
Fix: add _safe_stderr() helper that wraps sys.stderr in a TextIOWrapper
with encoding='utf-8' and errors='replace' when the console encoding
is not UTF-8. Applied to both:
- hermes_logging.py setup_verbose_logging() stderr handler
- gateway/run.py optional stderr handler
The wrapper ensures log lines are never lost — un-encodable characters
are replaced with '?' instead of crashing the process.
Fixes#40432
* fix(gateway,windows): reliability — supervisor task, JOB breakaway, status --deep
Three coordinated fixes for the Windows gateway reliability story:
1. CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB on every detached spawn
The 'hermes update' triggered from the Electron Desktop GUI ran inside
Electron's job object. Without breakaway, the post-update gateway
watcher spawned by update — already DETACHED_PROCESS — was still
reaped when Electron's job tore down, so the gateway never came back
after a GUI-initiated update. Adds CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB (0x01000000)
to:
- hermes_cli/_subprocess_compat.py::windows_detach_flags() — used by
every helper that calls windows_detach_popen_kwargs(), including
launch_detached_profile_gateway_restart()
- The watcher subprocess's own respawn snippet in
hermes_cli/gateway.py (inlined flags so the watcher's child
respawn also breaks away)
_spawn_detached() in gateway_windows.py already had the flag; this
change brings the rest of the codebase to parity.
2. Per-minute supervisor Scheduled Task — Windows equivalent of
systemd Restart=always
Introduces hermes_cli/gateway_supervisor.py and registers it as a
second Scheduled Task ('Hermes_Gateway_Supervisor', SC MINUTE /MO 1,
LIMITED rights) alongside the existing ONLOGON task. Every minute,
the supervisor uses the same gateway.status.get_running_pid() probe
as 'hermes gateway status' and, if no gateway is alive, calls
gateway_windows._spawn_detached() (which now includes BREAKAWAY) to
bring one back.
Covers every crash mode, not just 'machine rebooted': taskkill,
OOM, GUI update SIGTERM, parent job teardown. Cheap — one pythonw
startup per minute when down, one PID-existence check per minute
when up.
Wired into both the schtasks-success and Startup-folder-fallback
install paths via _install_supervisor_best_effort(), and removed in
uninstall(). Best-effort: a failing supervisor install logs a
warning but doesn't roll back the primary install.
3. 'hermes gateway status --deep' shows per-probe PASS/FAIL
Replaces the existing terse '--deep' output (which only printed
paths) with an actual diagnostic table:
[1] PID file present
[2] Lock file held by a live process
[3] get_running_pid() result
[4] _pid_exists(pid) — OS-level liveness
[5] gateway_state.json (state + age)
[6] Last lifecycle event from gateway-exit-diag.log
When the high-level summary disagrees with reality, the user can
see exactly which signal is lying.
Test-leak fix
-------------
tests/hermes_cli/test_gateway_wsl.py::TestGatewayCommandWSLMessages
monkey-patched is_linux/is_wsl/supports_systemd_services to simulate
WSL but did NOT stub is_windows(). On a Windows host, the dispatcher
in _gateway_command_inner takes the is_windows() branch BEFORE the
WSL guidance branch, so the test invoked gateway_windows.install()
for real. install() writes to %APPDATA%\...\Startup\Hermes_Gateway.cmd
— the REAL user Startup folder, never sandboxed by tmp_path — pointing
at the test's pytest-of-<user>/pytest-<N>/.../gateway-service/ wrapper.
When pytest tore down the tmp_path, every subsequent Windows login
flashed a cmd.exe window that failed to find the missing target.
Stubs is_windows=False on all four affected tests:
test_install_wsl_no_systemd
test_start_wsl_no_systemd
test_status_wsl_running_manual
test_status_wsl_not_running
Defense-in-depth: _build_startup_launcher() now prefixes the launcher
with 'if not exist <target> exit /b 0', so any future stale Startup
entry silently no-ops instead of flashing a console window.
Status enhancements
-------------------
- status() now reports supervisor task presence alongside the existing
schtasks/Startup info, and nudges the user to reinstall if the
supervisor isn't registered.
- Deep mode dumps both the supervisor task name + script path.
* fix(gateway,windows): drop the per-minute supervisor task — keep breakaway + deep probes
Earlier in this branch we added a per-minute schtasks-based supervisor to
respawn the gateway after crashes / GUI-update SIGTERMs. The implementation
flashed a brief console window on every firing, which stole window focus.
We tried several variants:
- cmd.exe wrapper invoking pythonw -> flashes (cmd.exe is console-subsystem)
- schtasks /TR pointing at pythonw -> flashes (uv venv launcher pythonw is
actually subsystem=Console, not GUI; it respawns the real pythonw)
- schtasks /TR pointing at base uv -> still flashes (Task Scheduler-side
conhost preallocation; documented Windows quirk)
- XML registration with <Hidden>true> -> still flashes (<Hidden> only hides
the task in the Task Scheduler UI, not the spawned window)
Researched what leading projects do:
- Ollama: GUI-subsystem tray exe + Startup-folder shortcut. No supervisor.
- Tailscale: real Windows Service via SCM. Session 0, no console possible.
- Syncthing: --no-console flag inside the binary + Startup folder.
- openclaw: VBS Run(..., 0, False) wrapper. Suppresses the *window* but
Super User Q971162 confirms focus-steal still occurs in some cases.
None of these use a per-minute polling scheduled task. The 'auto-restart on
crash' responsibility belongs INSIDE the daemon (Tailscale's in-process
recovery / Ollama's monitor+worker pair) OR is delegated to the Windows
Service Control Manager — not Task Scheduler.
So this commit drops the supervisor entirely. The CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB
fix in _subprocess_compat.py (from commit c1e5fa433) survives — that is the
*real* fix for problem #2 (GUI-update kills gateway): the post-update
watcher in launch_detached_profile_gateway_restart() now breaks out of
Electron's job object, so the gateway respawn watcher survives the GUI
quit and successfully respawns the gateway.
Surviving from c1e5fa433:
* CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB in hermes_cli/_subprocess_compat.py (fixes#2)
* Inlined breakaway flag in the watcher respawn snippet in gateway.py
* hermes gateway status --deep PASS/FAIL probes (fixes#1 — visibility)
* 'if not exist <target> exit /b 0' guard in _build_startup_launcher
(fixes#3 — silent no-op for stale Startup entries)
* tests/hermes_cli/test_gateway_wsl.py is_windows=False stubs (root cause
of #3 — pytest WSL tests no longer leak Startup entries on Win hosts)
Removed in this commit:
* hermes_cli/gateway_supervisor.py (entire file)
* Supervisor section in hermes_cli/gateway_windows.py (~180 lines):
get_supervisor_task_name, get_supervisor_script_path,
_build_supervisor_cmd_script, _write_supervisor_script,
_install_supervisor_task, is_supervisor_task_registered,
_install_supervisor_best_effort
* _install_supervisor_best_effort() calls in install() (3 spots)
* supervisor cleanup block in uninstall()
* supervisor display lines in status() / status(deep=True)
Future direction (out of scope for this PR): the right place for Windows
'Restart=always' semantics is a real Windows Service installed via
pywin32's win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework — session-0 isolation, SCM
auto-restart, no console window possible. That's a meaningful next-PR
project, not a band-aid.
Tests: 51 pass / 2 pre-existing failures in
tests/hermes_cli/test_gateway_{windows,wsl}.py (the 2 failures are
TestSupportsSystemdServicesWSL cases that fail on origin/main too —
unrelated to this PR).
_hook_jsonable() referenced SimpleNamespace without importing it, so
sanitizing any hook payload that contained one raised
NameError: name 'SimpleNamespace' is not defined.
Bedrock, Codex-responses, and the auxiliary client build their
response / message / tool_call objects as SimpleNamespace and hand the
raw objects to the post_api_request hook. The hook call sites swallow
exceptions (except Exception: pass), so the crash silently dropped the
observability hook for those providers.
Add the missing `from types import SimpleNamespace` and a regression
test covering the SimpleNamespace sanitization path.
_read_events() returned normally when self._ws was closed-but-non-None
(the while-condition is false on entry). _listen_loop treats a normal
return as a clean read, resets backoff to 0, and immediately retries —
a tight busy-loop pinning CPU. Raising on entry routes it through the
reconnect/backoff path instead.

A memory provider tool whose name collides with a built-in core tool
(e.g. clarify, delegate_task) was skipped from agent.tools at init but
lingered in MemoryManager._tool_to_provider, where the has_tool dispatch
branch could route a call to a tool that was never registered (#40466).
Block the collision at registration instead of patching dispatch:
- MemoryManager.add_provider rejects any tool whose name is in
_HERMES_CORE_TOOLS (warn + skip), so it never enters the routing table.
- get_all_tool_schemas applies the same filter, so the manager never
advertises a schema it would refuse to route.
Built-ins always win, matching the invariant used by the TTS/browser/
search provider registries. Makes the dispatch-hijack structurally
impossible regardless of branch ordering.
Closes#40466.
Adds regression tests for the SSH cwd fix: local backend keeps
host-validated session cwd; non-local backend uses TERMINAL_CWD (or
terminal.cwd config) verbatim without host isdir() validation; sentinel
values fall back to session cwd.
Home Assistant is a bundled plugin now (#40709) and declares
allow_update_command=True on its PlatformEntry. The registry fallback
in _handle_update_command already covers it, so the frozenset entry is
a redundant double-allow — same cleanup #40711 did for Discord and
Mattermost. Adds a registry-fallback test mirroring the existing
discord/mattermost cases.
* feat: uninstall the Chat GUI without removing the agent (CLI + desktop UI)
Adds a GUI-only uninstall path so people can remove the desktop Chat GUI
while keeping the Hermes agent + their config/sessions/.env, and surfaces
the three CLI uninstall modes inside the desktop app's Settings → About.
CLI:
- New hermes_cli/gui_uninstall.py: cross-platform discovery + removal of the
desktop GUI's artifacts (source-built dist/release/node_modules + build
stamp, the packaged app bundle, and the Electron userData dir) on Linux,
macOS, and Windows. Never touches the agent source, venv, or user data.
- `hermes uninstall --gui` removes only the Chat GUI; `--gui-summary` prints a
JSON install snapshot (used by the desktop UI to gate options + detect a
missing agent for a future lite client).
- `hermes uninstall --yes` / `--full --yes` now run non-interactively, sharing
the destructive sequence via a new _perform_uninstall() helper. The keep-data
and full flows also sweep the GUI artifacts.
Desktop:
- electron/desktop-uninstall.cjs: pure helpers mapping each mode (gui/lite/full)
to CLI flags, resolving the running app bundle per OS, and building the
detached cleanup script that waits for the app to exit, runs the Python
uninstall, and removes the bundle.
- IPC hermes:uninstall:summary / :run, preload bridge, and types.
- Settings → About "Danger zone" with the three options; agent-removing
options hide when no local agent is detected.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_gui_uninstall.py (22 pass with the existing
uninstall tests), electron/desktop-uninstall.test.cjs (17 pass, wired into
test:desktop:platforms). Docs: desktop.md "Uninstalling" + cli-commands.md.
* fix(desktop): tear down backend process tree before GUI uninstall (Windows lock safety)
The desktop uninstall cleanup script waited only on the desktop app's own
PID, but a backend grandchild (gateway / pty terminal / hermes REPL) can
outlive it and keep hermes.exe + venv files mandatory-locked on Windows —
making the script's rmdir half-fail and leaving a partial install, the same
failure class as the self-update path's #37532.
- main.cjs: runDesktopUninstall now awaits releaseBackendLock() before
spawning the cleanup script — tree-kills every backend PID the desktop owns
(primary + pool) via taskkill /T /F and polls the venv shim until unlocked.
Extracted the shared core out of releaseBackendLockForUpdate so both the
update hand-off and the uninstaller use the identical, incident-hardened
teardown. No-op on macOS/Linux (no mandatory locks).
- desktop-uninstall.cjs: Windows cleanup script removes the bundle via a
bounded rmdir retry loop (10x, 1s) instead of a single rmdir, since Windows
releases directory handles lazily even after the holding process exits.
- Dropped a fragile tasklist|findstr reap-by-path attempt; the Electron-side
tree-kill-by-PID is the reliable mechanism.
Tests: desktop-uninstall.test.cjs updated for the retry-loop output (17 pass).
* fix(desktop): address review on GUI uninstall (venv self-delete, gates, wait-loop)
Resolves @OutThisLife's review on #40355:
1. full mode now gated on agent presence (needsAgent: true). It removes the
agent + user data, so on a lite client with no local agent it's hidden
like lite — no more offering to remove an agent that isn't there.
2. (Finding 3, the real bug) lite/full no longer rmtree the venv from the
venv's OWN python. On Windows a running python.exe is mandatory-locked, so
that half-fails. New lightweight 'python -m hermes_cli.uninstall --mode X'
entrypoint (stdlib-only imports) lets the desktop run agent-removing modes
under the SYSTEM python (findSystemPython) with PYTHONPATH=<agentRoot>, so
import hermes_cli resolves from source while the venv is torn down. Falls
back to venv python + logs when no system python (gui-only unaffected).
3. Windows wait-loop is now bounded (60 tries, matching POSIX) and matches the
PID as a whole space-delimited token via findstr (no substring 99->990
trap, no redundant bare find). set HERMES_HOME/PID/PYTHONPATH now quoted.
4. Renamed the misleading 'returns null for dev run' test — the dev-run safety
is shouldRemoveAppBundle(isPackaged=false), which the test now asserts.
Docs: note that --gui on a source checkout also sweeps node_modules/build
output. Tests: 18 python + 19 desktop pass.
Conflict resolution prefixes --workspace web before --silent (preserving
the Termux npm_workspace_args path); update test_cmd_update fixture to match.
Add zakame@zakame.net -> zakame mapping so CI author check passes.
- check_dir = npm_dir if audit_extra else npm_dir evaluated identically in
both branches; change to PROJECT_ROOT if audit_extra else npm_dir so
workspace-scoped audits check the workspace root's node_modules
- Add test_npm_install_uses_workspace_web_scope asserting --workspace web is
passed adjacently in the _build_web_ui npm install invocation
- Update the --skip-build pre-build hint in the dashboard startup path
to use `npm install --workspace web && npm run build -w web` so users
don't accidentally trigger a desktop rebuild by following the hint.
- Add test_tui_launch_install_uses_workspace_scope to assert that the
TUI launch npm install carries --workspace ui-tui, covering the call
site added in the prior commit.
- Add --workspace ui-tui to the TUI launch npm install, the one call
site missed by the prior commit. Without scoping it ran from
PROJECT_ROOT and still resolved apps/desktop via the apps/* glob.
- Update the two manual-recovery hints in _build_web_ui (npm install
failure and build failure paths) to use the scoped form
`npm install --workspace web && npm run build -w web` so users
following the hint don't accidentally trigger a desktop rebuild.
- Update the stale test assertion in test_cmd_update.py to expect
--workspace web in the _build_web_ui npm ci call, which was
previously unreachable through the if-guard and left the workspace-
scoping change from the prior commit unverified.
Follow-up on the backend-visible artifact-path fix.
- Extract the cache-mount iteration loop into a reusable, backend-agnostic
credential_files.map_cache_path_to_container(host_path, container_base) that
returns the POSIX container path or None. to_agent_visible_cache_path() now
delegates to it (keeping its Docker-only gate), and image_generation_tool's
_agent_visible_cache_path() delegates to it too — eliminating the duplicated
loop and the divergent path-join (posixpath vs Path) between the two.
- Drop the now-unused posixpath/Path imports from image_generation_tool.py.
- Document the agent_visible_cache_base getattr probe as a forward-looking
optional hook (no producer yet) so it doesn't read as a typo'd attribute.
- Add unit tests for map_cache_path_to_container.
`gateway/run.py::_UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS` was a hardcoded frozenset
listing every messaging platform allowed to invoke the `/update` slash
command. Plugin-migrated platforms (currently Discord and Mattermost,
soon also Home Assistant via #32500) declare `allow_update_command=True`
on their `PlatformEntry`, and `_handle_update_command` already falls
back to the registry when a platform isn't in the frozenset. The result
was a silent redundancy: those entries said "allowed" twice, and the
registry flag was a no-op for them in practice.
- Removed `Platform.DISCORD` and `Platform.MATTERMOST` from the frozenset.
- Updated the docstring to make the split explicit (built-ins live in
the frozenset; plugins use `allow_update_command` on the registry entry).
The remaining frozenset entries are all still built-in platforms living
under `gateway/platforms/` today. Future plugin migrations should drop
their entry from the frozenset as part of the migration PR (or in a
sibling chore PR like this one).
Added a `TestUpdateCommandPlatformGate` test class that pins down all
three branches of the gate so future changes don't silently regress:
- Programmatic interfaces (`Platform.WEBHOOK`, `Platform.API_SERVER`)
must remain blocked.
- Plugin-migrated platforms (Discord, Mattermost) must pass via the
registry fallback.
- Built-in platforms in the hardcoded frozenset (Telegram) must
still pass without needing the registry.
The gate previously had zero direct test coverage — its only existing
coverage was `test_no_adapter_for_platform` which exercised a different
code path.
Move gateway/platforms/homeassistant.py into plugins/platforms/homeassistant/
following the same shape as the Mattermost and Discord migrations.
- Adapter file is renamed via git mv (history is preserved).
- register() exposes the platform via the plugin system instead of the
hardcoded Platform.HOMEASSISTANT elif in gateway/run.py::build_adapter().
- _standalone_send() replaces the legacy _send_homeassistant() helper in
tools/send_message_tool.py. Out-of-process cron delivery
(deliver=homeassistant from a cron process not co-located with the
gateway) now flows through the registry's standalone_sender_fn path
instead of the hardcoded elif.
- _is_connected() probes HASS_TOKEN via hermes_cli.gateway.get_env_value
so existing connected-platform checks behave identically.
The HASS_TOKEN / HASS_URL env-to-PlatformConfig seeding in
gateway/config.py stays in core — same pattern bluebubbles, mattermost,
and discord migrations followed. No setup_fn or apply_yaml_config_fn is
registered because Home Assistant has no _setup_homeassistant wizard in
hermes_cli/setup.py and no homeassistant: YAML block in config.yaml today;
setup runs through the existing hermes_cli/tools_config.py toolset wizard.
Test imports were rewritten across tests/gateway/test_homeassistant.py,
tests/integration/test_ha_integration.py, and
tests/tools/test_send_message_missing_platforms.py; the legacy
(token, extra, chat_id, message)-shaped _send_homeassistant call site is
preserved via a small SimpleNamespace shim in
test_send_message_missing_platforms.py (same approach used when
mattermost moved).
- Focused HA suites (64 tests across the three rewritten files) pass.
- Broader gateway/cron sweep produces 10 failures identical to main
baseline (telegram approval/model-picker xdist isolation flakes,
wecom_callback defusedxml issue, cron script_timeout fixture issue).
Zero net new failures.
The dependency-verification repair in _verify_core_dependencies_installed
ran 'pip install --reinstall -e .' via _run_install_with_heartbeat directly,
bypassing the Windows shim-quarantine that the primary install path performs.
That reinstall rewrites the entry-point shims, and on Windows the live
hermes.exe is the running process — pip can neither delete nor overwrite it.
With no quarantine, the shim was left missing and 'hermes' dropped off PATH
('hermes' is not recognized... after update).
Extract the rename-out-of-the-way / restore-on-failure logic into a reusable
_run_quarantined_install helper and route both the primary editable installs
and the --reinstall -e . repair through it. The per-package repair installs
only third-party deps (never hermes-agent), so they don't touch the shims and
are left untouched. Add a regression test (fails on old code, passes on new).
- check-attribution: add chilltulpa@gmail.com -> TheGardenGallery to
AUTHOR_MAP in scripts/release.py (new external contributor via the
carried-over commits).
- ty: the dashboard back-compat test imported pytest but never used it,
tripping unresolved-import. Drop the dead import — tests are plain
functions driving the parser via subprocess, no pytest API needed.
Older Hermes desktop app shells (<= 0.15.x) spawn the backend as
`hermes dashboard --no-open --tui --host ... --port ...`. The --tui flag
was removed from the dashboard subcommand in cae6b5486 (embedded chat is
always on now).
When a user's CLI updates past that commit but their desktop app binary
has not, argparse hard-errored with 'unrecognized arguments: --tui' and
exit(2). The backend died before becoming ready and the desktop GUI showed
only 'Hermes couldn't start' with no actionable cause — a confusing brick
for anyone whose app and CLI versions drift apart across an update.
Add a hidden, deprecated, accepted-and-ignored --tui flag to the dashboard
subparser so an old app shell + new CLI degrades gracefully. Hidden from
--help via argparse.SUPPRESS so we don't re-advertise a removed feature.
Safe to delete once the floor app version is well past 0.16.0.
Adds tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_tui_backcompat.py pinning: the flag
parses without error, stays hidden from --help, and the modern (no --tui)
invocation is unaffected.
Address the two non-blocking follow-ups from review:
- next_call is now single-use per middleware frame. A second invocation
raises instead of silently re-running the downstream provider/tool, so
the terminal call cannot execute twice via the chain. The error surfaces
through the existing handler, which preserves the first downstream result.
- Request-middleware payload copies go through _safe_copy(), which falls
back to a shallow dict copy when deepcopy() fails on a non-deepcopyable
member (clients, callbacks, file handles) instead of aborting the pass.
Adds regression coverage for both: double next_call() keeps the terminal
single-run, and a non-deepcopyable (threading.Lock) request payload still
runs middleware via the shallow fallback.
":" is FTS5's column-filter operator. With a single-column "content" FTS table,
an unquoted query like "TODO: fix" parses as "column:term" and raises
"no such column: TODO". search_messages() catches that OperationalError at the
execute site and returns [], so colon queries silently yield zero hits even when
the content is present. This hits both the session_search tool and the dashboard
search.
Add ":" to the Step 2 metacharacter strip in _sanitize_fts5_query(), mirroring
how the other FTS5 syntax characters are already stripped. Colons inside quoted
phrases are preserved (Step 1 protects them). Adds a regression test asserting a
colon query still finds matching content, plus unit assertions on the sanitizer.
Track successful next_call completion separately from invocation so execution
middleware that catches and translates a downstream provider/tool failure does
not accidentally convert that failure into a successful None result.
Also avoid wrapping BaseException from downstream execution, and document the
execution middleware error semantics.
Tests cover:
- pre-next_call middleware failures fail open to the remaining chain
- post-next_call middleware failures preserve the downstream result
- translated downstream failures propagate instead of returning None
- downstream BaseException is not wrapped

Salvages the primary fix from #24275 (asdlem) and layers a last-resort
fallback on top:
Primary (from #24275): the real macOS 26 root cause is that `gui/<uid>`
isn't reachable from non-Aqua/background sessions. Switch the launchd
domain to `user/<uid>` and mark the plist valid for both Aqua and
Background sessions (LimitLoadToSessionType), restoring a real supervised
service. Treat exit code 125 as "job unloaded" so start/restart
re-bootstrap and retry.
Last resort (this PR): the #23387 reporter saw `user/<uid>` bootstrap
also fail with error 5 on some hosts. When even a fresh bootstrap can't
manage the domain (codes 5/125 persist), degrade to a CLI-managed
detached background process instead of crashing — logs to gateway.log,
PID tracked via gateway.pid so stop/status/restart keep working. Print
guidance that it won't auto-start at login or auto-restart on crash.

macOS 26+ broke launchctl management of the gui/<uid> (and user/<uid>)
domains: `bootstrap` returns error 5 and `kickstart` returns error 125
("Domain does not support specified action"), so `hermes gateway
start/install/restart` crashed with a cryptic traceback (#23387).
Detect these codes and degrade gracefully: launch the gateway as a
CLI-managed detached background process (the documented `nohup hermes
gateway run --replace` workaround), with logs to gateway.log and the PID
tracked via gateway.pid so stop/status/restart keep working. Print clear
guidance that the service won't auto-start at login or auto-restart on
crash on this macOS version. launchd_stop also tolerates 125/5 from
bootout and falls through to the PID-based kill.
* fix: respect disabled auto-compaction on context overflow
Port from anomalyco/opencode#30749.
When compression.enabled is false, NO automatic compaction trigger may
fire. The proactive token-threshold paths (preflight + post-response
should_compress gate) already honoured the setting, but the three
provider-overflow recovery paths in the agent loop — long-context-tier
429, 413 payload-too-large, and context-overflow — called
_compress_context() unconditionally, silently compressing and rotating
the session against the user's explicit choice.
Add a single guard at the top of the overflow-recovery dispatch: when
compression is disabled and the error is one of those three overflow
classes, surface a terminal error (compaction_disabled: True) telling the
user to /compress manually, /new, switch to a larger-context model, or
reduce attachments. Manual /compress (force=True) is unaffected — it never
enters this loop.
Tests: new TestOverflowWithCompactionDisabled (413 + 400 overflow don't
compress when disabled; control case still compresses when enabled).
Existing overflow-recovery tests updated to enable compaction explicitly
(they verify the recovery fires); fixture defaults flipped to True to
match production (compression.enabled defaults to True).
* fix(gateway): plain text while busy interrupts by default again
busy_input_mode (default 'interrupt') was advertised as the busy-behavior
knob, but a second knob added in 7abd62719 — busy_text_mode, defaulting to
'queue' — short-circuited every plain TEXT message before busy_input_mode
was consulted. Result: plain follow-ups silently queued instead of
interrupting, even with busy_input_mode left at its 'interrupt' default
(regression #38390, silent-queue #31588).
Collapse to one source of truth: busy_input_mode drives text handling.
busy_text_mode is kept only as a legacy explicit override for back-compat
(existing queue setups keep working); when unset it follows busy_input_mode.
All default fallbacks flipped queue->interrupt. The debounce mechanism is
preserved and now keyed off the resolved mode.
Fixes#38390, #31588.
Replicate the `hermes tools` configurator in the dashboard Skills →
Toolsets view. Each toolset now opens a config drawer that covers the
full lifecycle the CLI offers: enable/disable, pick a provider/backend,
enter and save API keys, and run a provider's post-setup install hook
with a live log tail.
The toolset view was previously read+toggle only — the provider matrix
and key-status endpoints existed but the page never called them, and
there was no way to save a key or run a backend install (npm/pip/binary)
from the browser.
Backend:
- New CLI subcommand `hermes tools post-setup <KEY>` — non-interactive,
scriptable target that runs a provider's install hook (agent_browser,
camofox, cua_driver, kittentts, piper, ddgs, spotify, langfuse,
xai_grok). Validated against valid_post_setup_keys() so an arbitrary
key can't drive _run_post_setup.
- PUT /api/tools/toolsets/{name}/env — save API keys to ~/.hermes/.env
via save_env_value (same store the CLI writes), validated against the
toolset category's env-var allowlist; blank values skipped.
- POST /api/tools/toolsets/{name}/post-setup — spawn-action that runs
`hermes tools post-setup <key>`; frontend tails the log via the
existing /api/actions/tools-post-setup/status. Registered in
_ACTION_LOG_FILES.
Frontend:
- New ToolsetConfigDrawer component (provider radios, password key
inputs with saved-state, get-a-key links, Run-setup + live install
log). Toolset cards get a Configure button + the drawer also exposes
the enable toggle.
- api.ts: toggleToolset, getToolsetConfig, selectToolsetProvider,
saveToolsetEnv, runToolsetPostSetup + ToolsetConfig/Provider/EnvVar/
EnvResult types.
Validation: 56 admin-endpoint tests pass (10 new: env save w/ CLI
parity + allowlist reject + blank-skip, post-setup spawn validation,
auth gate); 232 web_server tests pass; web npm run build + eslint clean;
HTTP E2E exercises save-key (CLI reads it back) and spawn+poll
post-setup to exit 0.
The Browse-hub tab was a blank search box with sparse result cards (name +
source + one Install button), no way to read a skill before installing, no
visual security scan, and no indication it was even connected to any hubs.
Backend (web_server.py):
- GET /api/skills/hub/sources — lists the configured hubs (label + trust
tier + GitHub rate-limit + index availability) and featured skills pulled
from the centralized index (zero extra API calls), plus installed-skill
provenance so the UI can mark already-installed results.
- GET /api/skills/hub/preview — fetches a skill's SKILL.md text + file
manifest WITHOUT installing (decodes byte-stored text, masks binaries).
- GET /api/skills/hub/scan — runs the SAME quarantine + scan_skill +
should_allow_install pipeline the CLI installer uses, then cleans up
quarantine, returning verdict / per-finding detail / severity tally /
install-policy decision.
- search now returns per-source counts + timed-out sources + installed map.
Frontend (SkillsPage HubBrowser):
- Landing state: connected-hubs strip + featured skill grid (no more blank
page).
- Rich cards: trust-level color coding, source, tags, identifier,
Details + Install (or Installed state).
- Detail dialog: read the actual SKILL.md, on-demand visual security scan
(verdict pill, severity tally, per-finding list, allow/block policy),
GitHub repo link.
- Search meta line: result count + timing + per-source breakdown (the
'feels slow / no feedback' complaint).
Tests: 4 new endpoint test classes (sources/preview/scan + updated search
shape) in test_dashboard_admin_endpoints.py.
profile list and profile show assumed the wrapper script is always named
after the profile (wrapper_dir / name). When a custom alias exists — e.g.
`hermes profile alias steve --name qiaobusi` creates ~/.local/bin/qiaobusi
pointing at `hermes -p steve` — the display silently showed the profile
name (or nothing) instead of the alias the user actually typed.
The custom-alias *creation* path (create_wrapper_script(name, target)) was
added later; the *display* path was never updated to match.
Add find_alias_for_profile() — a reverse lookup that scans the wrapper dir
for our own wrappers (alias-named file containing 'hermes -p <profile>'),
prefers a custom alias over the profile-named one, strips .bat on Windows,
and sorts for deterministic output. Populate ProfileInfo.alias_name and wire
it into the three display sites (profile describe, list, show).
Credit: salvages the intent of #11506 by wss434631143, reimplemented on
current main against the post-#11506 custom-alias (--name/target) mechanism.
Tests: 6 new (profile-named, custom-name, none, unrelated-file rejection,
windows .bat strip, list_profiles surfacing). All 123 in test_profiles pass.
E2E verified against the real CLI for both custom and profile-named aliases.
* 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.
Switching the main model never touches auxiliary slot pins (they're
independent, sticky per-task overrides). A user who switches main away
from a now-unpaid provider keeps paying 402s on every background aux call
until they manually reset those pins — silently, with no UI signal.
- /api/model/set scope:'main' now returns stale_aux: slots still pinned
to a provider different from the new main (additive field).
- Desktop Model Settings shows a switch-time notice after Apply AND a
persistent banner when any loaded aux slot mismatches the main provider,
both wired to the existing 'Reset all to main' action.
- Never auto-clears pins — a dedicated cheaper aux model is a legitimate
config; surface-and-offer instead of nuking.
- Fixes a stale pre-existing assertion in the panel test (main model now
renders via selectors, not a standalone label).
Follow-up on the cherry-picked content-block fix. _extract_output_tail
(the live subagent overlay) still used crude str(content), which renders
a "[{'type': 'text'...}]" blob and — worse — mislabels a block-wrapped
"Error: ..." result as is_error=False. Route it through the same
_stringify_tool_content helper so error detection and previews work at
both consumer sites.
- delegate_tool.py: _extract_output_tail uses _stringify_tool_content
- tests: add _extract_output_tail content-block test (error detection +
clean preview)
- release.py: AUTHOR_MAP entry for randomsnowflake (CI gate)
* fix: respect disabled auto-compaction on context overflow
Port from anomalyco/opencode#30749.
When compression.enabled is false, NO automatic compaction trigger may
fire. The proactive token-threshold paths (preflight + post-response
should_compress gate) already honoured the setting, but the three
provider-overflow recovery paths in the agent loop — long-context-tier
429, 413 payload-too-large, and context-overflow — called
_compress_context() unconditionally, silently compressing and rotating
the session against the user's explicit choice.
Add a single guard at the top of the overflow-recovery dispatch: when
compression is disabled and the error is one of those three overflow
classes, surface a terminal error (compaction_disabled: True) telling the
user to /compress manually, /new, switch to a larger-context model, or
reduce attachments. Manual /compress (force=True) is unaffected — it never
enters this loop.
Tests: new TestOverflowWithCompactionDisabled (413 + 400 overflow don't
compress when disabled; control case still compresses when enabled).
Existing overflow-recovery tests updated to enable compaction explicitly
(they verify the recovery fires); fixture defaults flipped to True to
match production (compression.enabled defaults to True).
* fix(dashboard): populate cron delivery dropdown from configured platforms
The dashboard cron-create/edit dropdown hardcoded five delivery options
(local, telegram, discord, slack, email), so users on Matrix — or any
other backend-supported platform — had no way to pick their channel even
though the cron scheduler delivers to all of them. It also offered
Telegram/Discord/etc. to users who never set those up.
- cron/scheduler.py: add cron_delivery_targets() — the single source of
truth. Intersects gateway-configured platforms with cron-deliverable
ones and reports whether each platform's home channel is set.
- web_server.py: GET /api/cron/delivery-targets exposes that list (+ the
implicit local option) to the dashboard.
- CronPage.tsx: both modals render options from the endpoint. Configured
platforms missing a home channel still appear, annotated "set a home
channel first" (option B), so the user knows what to fix. Edit modal
preserves a job's current target even if it's no longer configured.
Local-only state shows a "configure a platform under Channels" hint.
Validation: scheduler + endpoint E2E'd with a Matrix gateway (home set
and unset); 5 new tests; tests/cron + tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server
green (366 passed).
A steer rides inside a tool result (the only role-alternation-safe slot
mid-turn), so a bare "User guidance:" line reads as untrusted tool content —
well-behaved models refuse it as suspected prompt injection (observed live:
"I only follow instructions from you directly, not ones injected through
command results").
- Wrap steers in a bounded, self-describing [OUT-OF-BAND USER MESSAGE] marker
(prompt_builder.format_steer_marker), shared by both drain sites.
- Add STEER_CHANNEL_NOTE to the core system prompt so the model expects this
exact marker and trusts it as a genuine user message — while still ignoring
lookalikes buried in tool/web/file output. Static text → byte-stable prompt,
no prompt-cache regression; gated on the agent having tools.
- Desktop: steer ack is now an inline transcript note (⏩ steered · …) instead
of a toast.
Marker is intentionally static (not a per-session nonce) to honor the
byte-stable system-prompt caching policy; nonce hardening noted as follow-up.
Slack's native-slash manifest hard-caps at 50 (_SLACK_MAX_SLASH_COMMANDS).
Adding the /version canonical claims a pass-1 slot, so the lowest-priority
pass-2 alias (/q for /quit) clamps off the end. /q stays reachable via
/hermes q. Surviving aliases (/btw /bg /reset) still prove alias parity.
