Ready column help and fallbacks now describe dependency-ready work; show a
badge on unassigned ready cards and fix the stale unassigned tooltip. Align
localized Ready help strings with the new semantics.

- Bug 1: shift-click now always adds the target card and sets it as the
last-selected anchor, so range selection works even when 0 or 1 cards
are selected.
- Bug 2: column select-all checkbox now toggles: if every card in the
column is already selected, clicking unselects them all.
- Bug 3: applyBulk now mirrors moveSelected with optimistic UI updates
for status moves and calls loadBoard() on catch for consistency.
The Task dataclass has no `summary` field; only Run carries summary.
The dashboard already searches `latest_summary` (derived from the
latest run), so `t.summary` in the client-side haystack was always
undefined and therefore redundant.
Verdict from task t_4bcac44f:
- Before batch QOL (6c7ec94d9): search only covered id, title,
assignee, tenant.
- Batch QOL (7fd187102) correctly added body, result, latest_summary.
- `t.summary` was included but is a misleading no-op because tasks
never expose a `summary` key — `latest_summary` already covers it.
Removes the redundant field from the haystack only.
- When dragging a selected card while multiple cards are selected, the
browser ghost image now shows a 'N cards' badge instead of a single card.
- All selected cards in the original column are dimmed (opacity 0.45 +
grayscale) during the drag so the user sees the whole set is in-flight.
- Uses React state for the dragged task id; event delegation on the board
columns container to avoid deep prop threading.
- Preserve failedIds partial-failure highlighting after moveSelected/
applyBulk by clearing only selectedIds/lastSelectedId instead of
calling clearSelected() (which also wiped failedIds).
- Fix touch/native multi-drag drop stale closure by adding
props.selectedIds and props.onMoveSelected to the hermes-kanban:drop
useEffect dependency array.
Fixes t_5bfafb73.
- Extend BulkTaskBody with reclaim_first: bool = False
- In bulk_update, use kanban_db.reassign_task(..., reclaim_first=True)
when payload.reclaim_first is set and assignee is present
- Falls back to existing assign_task behavior when reclaim_first is false
This enables the dashboard to bulk-reassign running tasks by
reclaiming their claims first, matching the single-task
/tasks/{id}/reassign endpoint behavior.
Two follow-up improvements to Tranquil-Flow's metadata-panel restyle.
Both stay within the parent PR's "tone down the panel" scope.
1. Native <details>/<summary> collapse for verbose metadata.
The parent PR consciously deferred this ("adding native expand/collapse
would be the next step but requires UX agreement"). The default they
asked for is straightforward: collapsed when the rendered JSON exceeds
300 chars (the threshold where the max-height: 8.5rem cap actually
starts mattering), expanded otherwise. <details>/<summary> is the right
primitive — zero JS, browser-handled state, accessible by default
(keyboard-navigable, screen-reader announces the disclosure state),
and survives any react-state churn for free.
The OS-default disclosure marker is suppressed (list-style: none +
::-webkit-details-marker hidden) and replaced with a CSS ::before
chevron that rotates 90deg on the [open] attribute, so the look is
consistent across Firefox/WebKit/Blink without the double-marker
that would otherwise appear on the platforms that still render the
default triangle.
2. Skip rendering when metadata is an empty object.
`r.metadata && ...` truthy-checks, but `{}` is truthy in JS — so a
completed task with no actual metadata would render a "Metadata"
labeled disclosure block containing literal `{}`. Adds an
Object.keys(r.metadata).length > 0 guard so empty payloads render
nothing instead of an empty disclosure stub.
Tests: three new static-asset assertions covering the <details> shape,
the empty-object skip, and the suppress-default-marker + animated-chevron
CSS — all in `tests/plugins/test_kanban_dashboard_plugin.py`.
Hand-rebased onto current main from PR #19980; the original branch was stale
against main (~6 unrelated dashboard fixes had landed since), so applying
the PR's dist files directly would have silently reverted them.
The run-history panel in the task drawer rendered each completed run's
`metadata` field as a `<code class="hermes-kanban-run-meta">` containing
`JSON.stringify(r.metadata)` — a single unindented monoline. With
`white-space: pre-wrap` and a monospace font, a writer task's metadata
(changed_files paths, source URLs, generated-artifact details) wrapped
into a tall block of code-ish text that filled the parent run row. The
container's faint `--color-foreground 3%` background then made the whole
thing read like a crash dump even though the run completed normally.
Restyle and label, no interactivity changes:
- Wrap the meta payload in a `.hermes-kanban-run-meta-block` sub-block
with an explicit `Metadata` label (small, uppercase, muted) so the
panel reads as auxiliary detail at a glance.
- Pretty-print the JSON (`indent=2`) so the structure is scannable
instead of a wall of monoline text.
- Cap `.hermes-kanban-run-meta` at `max-height: 8.5rem; overflow: auto`
so a verbose blob scrolls inside its own pane rather than swamping
the run row.
- Sub-block uses a thin `border-left` rule and `background: transparent`
— distinct from the destructive-tinted treatment used by crashed /
timed_out / blocked / spawn_failed runs higher in the same file.
Tests: two new static-asset assertions in
`tests/plugins/test_kanban_dashboard_plugin.py` lock in the rendered
shape (the plugin ships built-only, no src/).
task_age() crashed with ValueError when created_at contained the
literal format string '%s' instead of a Unix timestamp, taking down
the entire GET /board endpoint with a 500.
- Add _safe_int() helper that returns None on non-numeric values
- Refactor task_age() to use _safe_int instead of bare int() casts
- Wrap task_age() call in _task_dict with try/except fallback so one
corrupt row never kills the whole board endpoint
* feat(i18n): localize /model command output
Reported by @tianma8888: when Chinese users run /model, the labels
("Provider:", "Context:", "_session only_", etc.) are still English.
This routes the static prose through the existing i18n catalog so it
follows display.language / HERMES_LANGUAGE.
Changes:
- locales/{en,zh,ja,de,es,fr,tr,uk}.yaml: add 17 keys under
gateway.model.* covering switched/provider/context/max_output/cost/
capabilities/prompt_caching/warning/saved_global/session_only_hint/
current_label/current_tag/more_models_suffix/usage_*.
- gateway/run.py _handle_model_command: replace hardcoded f-strings in
the picker callback, the text-list fallback, and the direct-switch
confirmation block with t("gateway.model.<key>", ...).
What stays English:
- model IDs, provider slugs, capability strings, cost figures, and the
"[Note: model was just switched...]" prepended to the model's next
prompt (LLM-facing, not user-facing).
- The two slightly-different session-only hints unify on a single key
with the em-dash phrasing.
Validation: tests/agent/test_i18n.py 27/27 passing (parity contract
holds), tests/gateway/ -k 'model or i18n' 74/74 passing.
* feat(i18n): localize all gateway slash command outputs
Expands the i18n catalog from 7 strings to 234 keys across 35 gateway
slash command handlers, so non-English users see localized output for
\`/profile\`, \`/status\`, \`/help\`, \`/personality\`, \`/voice\`, \`/reset\`,
\`/agents\`, \`/restart\`, \`/commands\`, \`/goal\`, \`/retry\`, \`/undo\`,
\`/sethome\`, \`/title\`, \`/yolo\`, \`/background\`, \`/approve\`, \`/deny\`,
\`/insights\`, \`/debug\`, \`/rollback\`, \`/reasoning\`, \`/fast\`,
\`/verbose\`, \`/footer\`, \`/compress\`, \`/topic\`, \`/kanban\`,
\`/resume\`, \`/branch\`, \`/usage\`, \`/reload-mcp\`, \`/reload-skills\`,
\`/update\`, \`/stop\` (plus the \`/model\` block already added in the
previous commit).
Reported by @tianma8888 — Chinese users want command output prose in
their language, not just the labels we already had.
Translations are hand-written for all 8 supported locales (en, zh, ja,
de, es, fr, tr, uk), matching each catalog's existing style: full-width
punctuation in zh, em-dashes in zh/ja/uk, French spaced colons,
German noun capitalization, etc.
What stays English (unchanged):
- Identifiers/values: model IDs, file paths, profile names, session IDs,
command flag names like --global, URLs, config keys.
- Backtick code spans: \`/foo\`, \`config.yaml\`.
- Log messages (logger.info/warning/error).
- LLM-facing system notes prepended to next prompt (e.g. [Note: model
was just switched...]).
- Strings produced by external modules (gateway_help_lines,
format_gateway, manual_compression_feedback) — those have their
own surfaces.
New shared keys for cross-handler boilerplate:
- gateway.shared.session_db_unavailable (5 call sites: branch, title,
resume, topic, _disable_telegram_topic_mode_for_chat)
- gateway.shared.session_not_found (1 site)
- gateway.shared.warn_passthrough (2 sites in /title's f"⚠️ {e}" pattern)
YAML gotcha fixed: \`yolo.on\` and \`yolo.off\` were originally written
unquoted, which YAML 1.1 parses as boolean True/False keys. Renamed to
\`yolo.enabled\` / \`yolo.disabled\` for both safety and clarity.
Test fix: tests/agent/test_i18n.py::test_t_missing_key_in_non_english_falls_back_to_english
now resets the catalog cache on teardown, so the fake "foo: English Foo"
locale doesn't poison the module-level cache for subsequent tests in
the same xdist worker. (Without this, every gateway slash command test
that shares a worker with the i18n suite would see the fake catalog.)
Validation:
- tests/agent/test_i18n.py: 27/27 (parity contract — every key in every
locale, matching placeholder tokens).
- tests/gateway/: 5077 passed, 0 failed (full gateway suite).
- 180 t() call sites added across 35 handlers; 1872 catalog entries
total (234 keys × 8 locales).
* feat(i18n): add 8 new locales — af, ko, it, ga, zh-hant, pt, ru, hu
Expands the static-message catalog from 8 → 16 languages, each with full
270-key parity against the English source-of-truth. Every locale now
covers the same surface PR #22914 added: approval prompts plus all 35
gateway slash command outputs.
New locales:
- af Afrikaans (community ask in #21961 by @GodsBoy; PRs #21962, #21970)
- ko Korean (PRs #20297 by @tmdgusya, #22285 by @project820)
- it Italian (PR #20371 by @leprincep35700)
- ga Irish/Gaeilge (PR #20962 by @ryanmcc09-dot)
- zh-hant Traditional Chinese (PRs #20523 by @jackey8616, #13140 by @anomixer)
- pt Portuguese (PRs #20443 by @pedroborges, #15737 by @carloshenriquecarniatto, #22063 by @Magaav)
- ru Russian (PR #22770 by @DrMaks22)
- hu Hungarian (PR #22336 by @lunasec007)
Each locale uses native-quality translations matching the existing tone
and conventions of the older 8 locales:
- zh-hant uses 繁體 characters with TW/HK technical vocabulary (軟體
not 软件, 連線 not 连接, 設定 not 设置, 訊息 not 消息, 工作階段 not 会话, 程式
not 程序, 預設 not 默认, 伺服器 not 服务器), full-width punctuation 「：（）」.
- ko uses formal 합니다체 (습니다/합니다) register throughout.
- pt uses European Portuguese as baseline with neutral PT/BR vocabulary
where possible.
- ga uses standard An Caighdeán Oifigiúil; English loanwords retained
for tech terms without good Irish equivalents (gateway, API, JSON).
- All preserve {placeholder} tokens, backtick code spans, slash commands,
brand names (Hermes, MCP, TTS, YOLO, OpenAI, Telegram, etc.), and emoji.
Aliases added in agent/i18n.py:
- af-za, Afrikaans → af
- ko-kr, Korean, 한국어 → ko
- it-it, italiano → it
- ga-ie, Irish, Gaeilge → ga
- zh-tw, zh-hk, zh-mo, traditional-chinese → zh-hant (note: zh-tw used to
alias to zh; now aliases to its own zh-hant catalog)
- zh-cn, zh-hans, zh-sg → zh (unchanged from before)
- pt-pt, pt-br, brazilian, portuguese → pt
- ru-ru, Russian, русский → ru
- hu-hu, Magyar → hu
The zh-tw alias re-routing is intentional: previously typing 'zh-TW' got
the Simplified Chinese catalog (wrong vocabulary for Taiwan/HK users).
Now those users get the proper Traditional Chinese catalog.
Validation:
- tests/agent/test_i18n.py: 43/43 (parity contract holds for all 16
languages × 270 keys = 4320 catalog entries, with matching placeholder
tokens).
- E2E alias resolution verified for all 19 alias inputs (Afrikaans, ko-KR,
한국어, italiano, Gaeilge, zh-TW, zh-HK, traditional-chinese, pt-BR,
brazilian, Magyar, etc.).
- tests/gateway/: 5198 passed (3 pre-existing TTS routing failures
unrelated to i18n).
Credit to all contributors whose PRs surfaced these language requests.
Their original PRs may now be closed as superseded with credit.
* feat(dashboard-i18n): add 14 web dashboard locales matching the static catalog
Brings the React dashboard (web/src/) up to the same 16-language
coverage the static catalog already has after the previous commits in
this PR. The Translations interface is TypeScript-typed, so every new
locale must provide every key — tsc -b is the parity guard.
Languages added (each is a complete 429-line locale file):
- af Afrikaans
- ja Japanese (PR #22513 by @snuffxxx surfaced this)
- de German (PR #21749 by @mag1art)
- es Spanish (PR #21749)
- fr French (PRs #21749, #10310 by @foXaCe)
- tr Turkish
- uk Ukrainian
- ko Korean (PRs #21749, #18894 by @ovstng, #22285 by @project820)
- it Italian
- ga Irish (Gaeilge)
- zh-hant Traditional Chinese (PR #13140 by @anomixer)
- pt Portuguese (PRs #22063 by @Magaav, #22182 by @wesleysimplicio, #15737 by @carloshenriquecarniatto)
- ru Russian (PRs #21749, #22770 by @DrMaks22)
- hu Hungarian (PR #22336 by @lunasec007)
Each translation covers all 15 namespaces with full key parity vs en.ts,
preserves every {placeholder} token verbatim, keeps identifiers
untranslated (brand names, file paths, cron expressions, code spans),
translates the language.switchTo tooltip into the target language, and
matches existing tone conventions (zh-hant uses TW/HK vocab; ja uses
formal desu/masu; ko uses formal seumnida register; ga uses An
Caighdean Oifigiuil with English loanwords for tech vocab without good
Irish equivalents).
Plumbing:
- web/src/i18n/types.ts: Locale union expanded to all 16 codes.
- web/src/i18n/context.tsx: imports all 16 catalogs; exports
LOCALE_META (endonym + flag per locale); isLocale() type guard.
- web/src/i18n/index.ts: re-export LOCALE_META.
- web/src/components/LanguageSwitcher.tsx: replaced two-state EN-ZH
toggle with a click-to-open dropdown listing all 16 languages.
Note: zh-hant.ts exports zhHant (camelCase) since hyphen is invalid in
a JS identifier; the canonical 'zh-hant' string keys it in TRANSLATIONS.
Validation:
- npx tsc -b: 0 errors. Every locale satisfies Translations.
- npm run build (tsc + vite production): green, 2062 modules.
- Each locale file is exactly 429 lines.
Out of scope: plugin dashboards (kanban/achievements ship as prebuilt
bundles with no source in repo); Docusaurus docs (separate surface);
TUI (no i18n yet).
* feat(plugin-i18n): localize achievements + kanban plugin dashboards across all 16 locales
Brings the two shipped plugin dashboards (hermes-achievements, kanban)
under the same i18n umbrella as the core dashboard PR #22914 just
established. Both bundles now read user-facing strings from the host's
i18n catalog via SDK.useI18n() instead of hardcoded English.
## Approach
Plugin dashboards ship as prebuilt IIFE bundles in
plugins/<name>/dashboard/dist/index.js — no build step, no source in
repo (upstream-authored, vendored as compiled JS). Earlier contributor
PRs (#22594, #22595, #18747) tried direct edits but didn't actually
wire the bundles to read translations.
This change does the wiring properly:
1. Each bundle gets a useI18n shim at IIFE scope:
const useI18n = SDK.useI18n
|| function () { return { t: { kanban: null }, locale: "en" }; };
Older host SDKs without useI18n still load the bundle and render
English fallbacks.
2. A small tx(t, path, fallback, vars) helper resolves dotted keys
under the plugin's namespace (t.kanban.* or t.achievements.*) and
interpolates {placeholder} tokens.
3. Every React component starts with const { t } = useI18n() and
each user-visible string is wrapped in tx(t, "key", "English fallback").
Helpers called outside React components (window.prompt callers,
constants used during init) take t as a parameter.
4. Top-level constants that were English dictionaries (COLUMN_LABEL,
COLUMN_HELP, DESTRUCTIVE_TRANSITIONS, DIAGNOSTIC_EVENT_LABELS in
kanban) become getColumnLabel(t, status)-style functions backed by
FALLBACK_* dictionaries.
## Translations added
Two new top-level namespaces added to the dashboard's TypeScript-typed
Translations interface:
- achievements: ~70 keys covering the hero, scan banner, achievement
card, share dialog, stats, filters, and empty states.
- kanban: ~145 keys covering the board, columns (with nested
columnLabels and columnHelp sub-dicts), card detail panel,
bulk-actions toolbar, dependency editor, board switcher, and
diagnostic callouts.
Each key is provided across all 16 supported locales:
en, zh, zh-hant, ja, de, es, fr, tr, uk, af, ko, it, ga, pt, ru, hu.
Total new translation entries: ~3,440 (215 keys × 16 locales).
## What stays English (deliberate)
- API paths, CSS class names, data-* attributes, JSON keys, regex
strings, URLs, file paths (~/.hermes/kanban.db, boards/_archived/).
- State identifier strings used as lookup keys (triage / todo / ready /
running / blocked / done / archived) — labels translate, key strings
don't.
- The PNG share-card text rendered to canvas in the achievements
ShareDialog (HERMES AGENT watermark, UNLOCKED stamp, tier names) —
these become part of a globally-shared image and stay English.
- localStorage keys (hermes.kanban.selectedBoard).
- Brand names (Kanban, Hermes, WebSocket, Nous Research).
## Contributor credit
PR #22594 by @02356abc and PR #22595 by @02356abc supplied the
en + zh kanban namespace skeleton (145 keys); used as the en source-
of-truth in this commit and translated to the other 14 locales.
PR #18747 by @laolaoshiren first surfaced the achievements
localization request.
## Validation
- npx tsc -b: 0 errors. All 16 locale .ts files satisfy the
Translations type with full key parity.
- npm run build (tsc + vite production build): green, 2062 modules,
1.56MB JS / 95KB CSS, ~2.5s build.
- node --check on both plugin bundles: parse cleanly.
- 126 tx() call sites in kanban, 46 in achievements.
## Out of scope
- TUI (ui-tui/) has no i18n infrastructure yet.
- Docusaurus docs (website/i18n/) — already had zh-Hans; expanding
is a separate translation workstream (Thai / Korean / Hindi PRs).
Follow-up to the previous commit's middleware fix.
- plugins/kanban/dashboard/plugin_api.py: rewrite the "Security note"
docstring. The previous text said "/api/plugins/ is unauthenticated by
design" — that's now actively wrong and dangerously misleading. New
text explains that plugin routes flow through the same session-token
middleware as core API routes and that --host 0.0.0.0 is safe to use
on a LAN as a result.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py: extend TestPluginAPIAuth to cover
the surfaces the original PR didn't pin:
* test_plugin_route_allows_auth now exercises a real plugin path
(/api/plugins/example/hello) instead of accepting 200 OR 404 from
a maybe-loaded kanban plugin — the assertion was effectively vacuous.
* test_plugin_patch_requires_auth + test_plugin_delete_requires_auth
cover non-GET mutation methods in case a future regression
whitelists them by accident.
* test_non_kanban_plugin_route_requires_auth proves the fix is
plugin-agnostic, not kanban-specific (hits hermes-achievements +
a non-existent plugin namespace; both 401 before route resolution).
* test_plugin_websocket_unaffected_by_http_middleware locks in that
the HTTP middleware change didn't accidentally start gating WS
upgrades — kanban /events still uses its own ?token= check.
Plus a cosmetic blank-line cleanup.
Makes first-time use of the kanban view self-explanatory. Every control
that wasn't already labelled now has a `title` tooltip describing what
it does, and a `?` icon next to the board switcher opens the kanban
docs page in a new tab.
Coverage:
- BoardSwitcher: board select, + New board button, docs-link icon
(both compact and full variants)
- BoardToolbar: Search, Tenant, Assignee, Show archived, Nudge
dispatcher, Refresh
- BulkActionBar: → ready, Complete, Archive, reassign group, Apply,
Clear
- Column header: hovering the header now surfaces COLUMN_HELP as a
tooltip in addition to the visible sub-text; column count also
labelled
- Card: task id, priority badge, tenant badge, assignee/unassigned,
comment count, link count, age timestamp
- InlineCreate: assignee, priority, parent-task selectors
Closes the community feedback from @CharlieDePew asking for tooltips
and a docs link in the kanban view.

* feat(kanban): add `specify` — auxiliary LLM fleshes out triage tasks
The Triage column shipped with a placeholder 'a specifier will flesh
out the spec', but the specifier itself was never built. This wires
it up as a dedicated CLI verb.
`hermes kanban specify <id>` calls the auxiliary LLM (configured under
`auxiliary.triage_specifier`) to expand a rough one-liner into a
concrete spec — tightened title plus a body with Goal / Approach /
Acceptance criteria / Out-of-scope sections — then atomically flips
`status: triage -> todo` and recomputes ready so parent-free tasks
go straight to the dispatcher on the same tick.
Surface:
hermes kanban specify <task_id> # single task
hermes kanban specify --all [--tenant T] # sweep triage column
hermes kanban specify ... --author NAME # audit-comment author
hermes kanban specify ... --json # one JSON line per task
Design choices:
- Parent gating is preserved. specify_triage_task flips to 'todo',
then recompute_ready promotes to 'ready' only when parents are
done — same rule as a normal parent-gated todo.
- No daemon, no background watcher. Every invocation is explicit —
keeps cost predictable and doesn't fight the dispatcher loop.
- Response parse is lenient: strict JSON preferred, markdown-fence
tolerated, raw-body fallback on malformed JSON so the LLM can't
strand a task in triage.
- All failure modes (no aux client, API error, task moved out of
triage mid-call) return SpecifyOutcome(ok=False, reason=...) so
--all continues past individual failures.
Changes:
hermes_cli/kanban_db.py + specify_triage_task()
hermes_cli/kanban_specify.py NEW (~220 LOC — prompt, parse, call)
hermes_cli/kanban.py + specify subcommand + _cmd_specify
hermes_cli/config.py + auxiliary.triage_specifier task slot
website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md specify + config notes
website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md CLI reference entry
tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_specify_db.py NEW (10 tests)
tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_specify.py NEW (20 tests)
Validation: 30/30 targeted tests pass. E2E: triage task -> specify ->
ends in 'ready' with events [created, specified, promoted] and the
audit comment recorded under the configured author.
* feat(kanban): wire specifier into dashboard and gateway slash
Follow-ups to the initial PR #21435 — closes the two gaps I'd left as
post-merge: dashboard button and first-class gateway surface.
Dashboard (plugins/kanban/dashboard/)
- POST /tasks/:id/specify NEW endpoint. Thin wrapper around
kanban_specify.specify_task(). Returns the CLI outcome shape
({ok, task_id, reason, new_title}); ok=false with a human reason
is a 200, not a 4xx, so the UI can render it inline without
treating 'no aux client configured' as a crash.
- Runs sync in FastAPI's threadpool because the LLM call can take
tens of seconds on reasoning models.
- Pins HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD around the specify call so the module's
argless kb.connect() lands on the right board.
- dist/index.js: doSpecify callback threaded through the drawer →
TaskDetail → StatusActions prop chain. ✨ Specify button appears
ONLY when task.status === 'triage' (elsewhere the backend would
reject anyway — hide the button to keep the action row clean).
Busy state (Specifying…) + inline success/error banner under the
button using the response.reason text.
- dist/style.css: tiny hermes-kanban-msg-ok / -err classes using
existing --color vars so themes reskin cleanly.
Gateway slash (/kanban specify)
- Already works via the existing run_slash → build_parser →
kanban_command pipeline. No code change needed — slash commands
inherit the argparse tree automatically. Added coverage:
test_run_slash_specify_end_to_end (create --triage, specify, verify
promotion + retitle) and test_run_slash_specify_help_is_reachable.
Tests
- tests/plugins/test_kanban_dashboard_plugin.py: 3 new tests for the
REST endpoint — happy path, non-triage rejection as ok=false 200,
missing aux client as ok=false 200.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_cli.py: 2 new slash-surface tests.
Docs
- website/docs/user-guide/features/kanban.md: dashboard action row
description mentions ✨ Specify + all three surfaces. REST table
gains /tasks/:id/specify. Slash examples include /kanban specify.
Validation: 340/340 targeted tests pass. E2E via TestClient: create a
triage task over REST → POST /specify with mocked aux client → task
moves to 'ready' column on /board with new title and body applied.
The original #21086 report was theme-accent opaque fills behind JSON
payload values in the Kanban Task Drawer's EVENTS section. The first
iteration of this fix was narrow — add ``!important`` to the specific
drawer/payload overrides. But "all themes" includes user-installable
themes we haven't written yet, and any theme doing the normal
``code { background: ... !important }`` dance would break this again.
Replace the whack-a-mole approach with a structural reset:
1. Inside ``.hermes-kanban`` (and the ``.hermes-kanban-drawer`` portal
container), reset EVERY ``<code>`` and ``<pre>`` to transparent
with ``!important``. This is the new default.
2. Opt back in ONLY on the classes that carry intentional pill
styling:
- ``.hermes-kanban .hermes-kanban-md code`` (inline code in task
Markdown body) — ``:not()`` scoped to exclude fenced blocks.
- ``.hermes-kanban pre.hermes-kanban-md-code`` (fenced block
wrapper) — higher specificity than the reset so it wins cleanly.
Net effect: any theme — shipped or third-party — can ship whatever
global ``code``/``pre`` rule it wants; kanban surfaces stay clean
unless the theme deliberately targets our internal class names, which
would be a conscious override rather than an accidental breakage.
Verified live against a hostile synthetic theme that paints
``code``, ``pre``, AND ``.hermes-kanban code`` / ``.hermes-kanban pre``
with ``background: !important`` fills. Every kanban surface stayed
correct (transparent where expected, intentional pill fill where
expected). Also verified across all 7 shipped themes by pointing a
headless browser at a live dashboard.
| Surface | Expected | Got |
|----------------------------------------------------|--------------------|-------------------|
| Outside ``.hermes-kanban`` (sanity) | hostile fill | hostile fill ✓ |

Closes#21086.
The textarea conversion in the previous commit dropped Enter-to-submit
entirely, requiring a mouse click on Create for every single-line task.
Restore the common-case shortcut while preserving multiline entry:
- Enter (no modifier) submits the form
- Shift+Enter inserts a newline
- Escape still cancels
Matches the convention used by Slack, Discord, GitHub PR comment boxes.
- Changed Input component to native textarea for task creation
- Removed Enter-to-submit behavior (use Create button instead)
- Added proper styling: border, padding, rounded corners, focus ring
- 2-row default height with vertical resize and max-height cap
- Escape still cancels the form
When the user created a new board via the dashboard with "switch" checked,
the server-side `current` file was flipped to the new board. Clicking the
original board's tab then showed no cards even though the count badge read
correctly — the REST fetch dropped `?board=` when the selection was
"default" and the backend fell through to `current` (= the new board),
returning a different board's data than the tab the user clicked.
Fix:
- `withBoard()` always appends `?board=<slug>` when a board is selected,
including "default". The dashboard's tab selection becomes authoritative
instead of silently deferring to the server's `current` file.
- `writeSelectedBoard()` persists every selection (including "default")
to localStorage. Previously "default" was stripped, which meant the
next page load had nothing to pin to and fell through to `current`.
- Same change applied to the WebSocket query builder in `openWs()`.
Contract verified live:
current_board = "proj2"
GET /board → proj2's tasks (bug shape: falls through to current)
GET /board?board=default → default's tasks (fix: explicit pin wins)
GET /board?board=proj2 → proj2's tasks
Closes#20879.
Stopping `hermes dashboard` with Ctrl-C while the Kanban dashboard is
open prints an ASGI traceback ending in
`plugins/kanban/dashboard/plugin_api.py::stream_events` at the
`asyncio.sleep(_EVENT_POLL_SECONDS)` line. This is a normal shutdown
path: Uvicorn cancels the open websocket task while it is sleeping in
the 300 ms poll loop. `asyncio.CancelledError` is a `BaseException` in
Python 3.8+ — the bare `except Exception:` handler below the existing
`WebSocketDisconnect:` clause does NOT catch it, so the cancellation
surfaces as an application traceback and routine dashboard exit looks
like a runtime failure.
Add an explicit `except asyncio.CancelledError: return` clause beside
the existing `WebSocketDisconnect` handler. Disconnection (client
closed the tab) and shutdown cancellation (dashboard process exiting)
are conceptually different paths but both warrant a quiet return; the
two clauses are kept separate to keep that intent explicit.
`asyncio` is already imported and used in this scope, so no new
import is needed. The bare `except Exception:` handler is preserved
verbatim, so genuine runtime failures still log a warning and close
the socket cleanly.
Closes#20790.
The Nous DS globals.css applies a global rule:
code { background: var(--midground); color: var(--background); }
This paints an opaque cream/yellow fill on every <code> element,
which hides text in the kanban drawer's event-payload, run-meta,
and worker-log panes (all rendered as <code>).
Fix: scope a reset inside .hermes-kanban so <code> elements inherit
their parent's color and stay transparent.
The kanban-worker skill (built into the gateway dispatcher's spawn
prompt) instructs every worker to hand off via
``kanban_complete(summary=..., metadata=...)``. That writes the summary
onto the closing ``task_runs`` row, NOT onto ``tasks.result`` — the
latter is left NULL unless the caller passes ``result=`` explicitly.
Result: a glance at the dashboard or ``hermes kanban show <id>`` shows
a blank "Result:" section even when the worker did real work, which
on 2026-05-05 caused a Mac false-alarm ("Hermes did nothing") on a
task that had a 10-line completion summary on its run.
This patch surfaces the latest non-null run summary as
``latest_summary`` so the worker's actual handoff lands in front of
operators.
* New helpers ``kanban_db.latest_summary(conn, task_id)`` and
``kanban_db.latest_summaries(conn, task_ids)``. The batch variant
uses a single window-function SELECT so the dashboard board endpoint
doesn't pay an N+1 cost on multi-hundred-task boards.
* CLI ``hermes kanban show <id>`` prints a "Latest summary:" block
when ``tasks.result`` is empty but a run has produced a summary
(the existing "Result:" section still wins when populated, so the
back-compat path for hand-edited results is untouched). JSON output
gains a top-level ``latest_summary`` field.
* Dashboard ``/board`` and ``/tasks/{id}`` now include a
``latest_summary`` field on every task. Cards on /board carry a
200-character preview (cheap to render, plenty for "what did this
worker do?" at a glance); the drawer/detail endpoint returns the
full summary.
* Five new tests cover: empty-runs case, post-complete surface,
newest-of-multiple selection, empty-string skip, batch with
missing tasks + empty input.
Smoke-tested locally against the live profile DB on the three
acceptance-criterion targets (t_f08fef91 cron-hygiene-audit,
t_007b7f1c EMA-analysis, t_05746fa4 self-assessment) — all three now
return their populated summaries via both ``latest_summary`` and
``latest_summaries``.
Test plan: 255/255 kanban tests pass + 91/91 dashboard plugin tests
pass. No regression on tasks where ``tasks.result`` is explicitly
populated (the existing "Result:" branch is preserved).

Add parent dependency guard to _set_status_direct so dragging
a task to the ready column is rejected (409) when its parents
are not all done. Previously the guard only existed in
recompute_ready, allowing direct status writes via the
dashboard API to bypass the dependency engine.
Root cause: after reclaiming stale workers, both T3 and T4
were set to ready via dashboard status writes in quick
succession, causing the writer to be spawned while the analyst
was blocked — upstream work wasn't done yet.
* feat(kanban): generic diagnostics engine for task distress signals
Replaces the hallucination-specific ``warnings`` / ``RecoverySection``
surface (shipped in PR #20232) with a reusable diagnostic-rule engine
that covers five distress kinds in v1 and can be extended without
touching UI code. The "something's wrong with this task" signal is
no longer limited to phantom card ids.
Closes the follow-up from #20232 discussion.
New module
----------
``hermes_cli/kanban_diagnostics.py`` — stateless, no-side-effect rule
engine. Each rule is a pure function of
``(task, events, runs, now, config) -> list[Diagnostic]``. Registry
is a simple list; adding a new distress kind is one function + one
import, no UI or API changes required.
v1 rule set
-----------
* ``hallucinated_cards`` (error) — folds the existing
``completion_blocked_hallucination`` event into the new surface.
* ``prose_phantom_refs`` (warning) — folds
``suspected_hallucinated_references``.
* ``repeated_spawn_failures`` (error → critical at 2x threshold) —
fires when ``tasks.spawn_failures >= 3``; suggests
``hermes -p <profile> doctor`` / ``auth``.
* ``repeated_crashes`` (error → critical) — fires after N consecutive
``crashed`` run outcomes with no successful completion between;
suggests ``hermes kanban log <id>``.
* ``stuck_in_blocked`` (warning) — fires after 24h in ``blocked``
state with no comments / unblock attempts; suggests commenting.
Every diagnostic carries structured ``actions`` (reclaim, reassign,
unblock, cli_hint, comment, open_docs) that render consistently in
both CLI and dashboard. Suggested actions are highlighted; generic
recovery actions (reclaim / reassign) are available on every kind as
fallbacks.
Diagnostics auto-clear when the underlying failure resolves — a
clean ``completed``/``edited`` event drops hallucination diagnostics,
a successful run drops crash diagnostics, a comment drops
stuck-blocked diagnostics. Audit events persist; the badge goes away.
API
---
``plugin_api.py``:
* ``/board`` now attaches ``diagnostics`` (full list) and
``warnings`` (compact summary with ``highest_severity``) per task.
* ``/tasks/{id}`` attaches diagnostics so the drawer's Diagnostics
section auto-opens on flagged tasks.
* NEW ``/diagnostics`` endpoint — fleet-wide listing, filterable by
severity, sorted critical-first.
CLI
---
* NEW ``hermes kanban diagnostics [--severity X] [--task id]
[--json]`` — fleet view or single-task view, matches dashboard rule
output so CLI users see the same picture.
* ``hermes kanban show <id>`` now renders a Diagnostics section near
the top with severity markers + suggested actions.
Dashboard
---------
* Card badge is severity-coloured (⚠ amber warning, !! orange error,
!!! red critical) using ``warnings.highest_severity``.
* Attention strip above the toolbar counts EVERY task with active
diagnostics (not just hallucinations), severity-coloured, lists
affected tasks with Open buttons when expanded.
* Drawer's old ``RecoverySection`` replaced with generic
``DiagnosticsSection`` rendering a card per active diagnostic:
title + detail + structured data (task-id chips when payload keys
look like id lists) + action buttons. Reassign profile picker is
inline per-diagnostic. Clipboard fallback uses ``.catch()`` for
environments where writeText rejects.
* Three-rung severity palette; amber for warning, orange for error,
red for critical. Uses CSS variables so theming is straightforward.
Tests
-----
* NEW ``tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_diagnostics.py`` — 14 unit tests
covering each rule's positive/negative/threshold paths, severity
sorting, broken-rule isolation, and sqlite3.Row integration.
* Dashboard plugin tests extended: ``/diagnostics`` endpoint (empty,
populated, severity-filtered), ``/board`` exposes both diagnostic
list and compact summary with ``highest_severity``.
* Existing hallucination-specific test (``test_board_surfaces_
warnings_field_for_hallucinated_completions``) updated to reflect
the new contract: warning summary keys by diagnostic kind
(``hallucinated_cards``) not event kind.
379 kanban-suite tests pass (+16 net from this PR).
Live verification
-----------------
Seeded all 5 diagnostic kinds + one clean + one plain-running task
(7 total) into an isolated HERMES_HOME, spun up the dashboard, and
verified:
* Attention strip: shows ``!! 5 tasks need attention`` in the
error-severity orange; Show expands to a list of 5 rows ordered
critical > error > warning.
* Card badges: error tasks render ``!!`` orange, warning tasks
render ``⚠`` amber, clean and plain-running tasks render no badge.
* Each of the 5 rules opens a correctly-coloured, correctly-styled
diagnostic card in the drawer with its specific suggested action.
* Live reassign from a diagnostic card flipped
``broken-ml-worker → alice`` and the drawer refreshed with the
new assignee + the same diagnostic still firing (correct:
spawn_failures counter hasn't reset yet).
* CLI ``hermes kanban diagnostics`` prints all 5 in severity order;
``--severity error`` narrows to 3; ``kanban show <id>`` includes
the Diagnostics block at the top with suggested action hint.
Migration note
--------------
The old ``warnings`` shape (``{count, kinds, latest_at}``) is
preserved on the API but ``kinds`` now keys by diagnostic kind
(``hallucinated_cards``) instead of event kind
(``completion_blocked_hallucination``). ``highest_severity`` is a
new required field. The dashboard was the only consumer and has
been updated in the same commit; external API consumers of the
``warnings`` field will need to update their kind-match logic.
* feat(kanban/diagnostics): lead titles with the actual error text
The generic 'Worker crashed N runs in a row' / 'Worker failed to spawn
N times' titles buried the actual cause in the data section. Operators
had to open logs or expand the diagnostic to see WHY the worker is
stuck — rate-limit vs insufficient quota vs bad auth vs context
overflow vs network blip all looked identical at a glance.
New titles:
Agent crashed 3x: openai: 429 Too Many Requests - rate limit reached
Agent crashed 3x: anthropic: 402 insufficient_quota - credit balance
Agent crashed 3x: provider auth error: 401 Unauthorized
Agent spawn failed 4x: insufficient_quota: You exceeded your current
Detail keeps the full error snippet (capped at 500 chars + ellipsis
for tracebacks). Title takes the first line capped at 160 chars.
Fallback title if no error recorded stays honest ('no error recorded').
Tests: 4 new cases covering 429/billing/spawn/truncation. 383 total
pass (+4).
Live-verified on dashboard with 6 seeded scenarios
(rate-limit, billing, auth, context, network, spawn-billing) —
each card title leads with the actionable error text.
Workers completing a kanban task can now claim the ids of cards they
created via an optional ``created_cards`` field on ``kanban_complete``.
The kernel verifies each id exists and was created by the completing
worker's profile; any phantom id blocks the completion with a
``HallucinatedCardsError`` and records a
``completion_blocked_hallucination`` event on the task so the rejected
attempt is auditable. Successful completions also get a non-blocking
prose-scan pass over their ``summary`` + ``result`` that emits a
``suspected_hallucinated_references`` event for any ``t_<hex>``
reference that doesn't resolve.
Closes#20017.
Recovery UX (kernel + CLI + dashboard)
--------------------------------------
A structural gate alone isn't enough — operators also need to see and
act on stuck workers, especially when a profile's model is the root
cause. This PR ships the full loop:
* ``kanban_db.reclaim_task(task_id)`` — operator-driven reclaim that
releases an active worker claim immediately (unlike
``release_stale_claims`` which only acts after claim_expires has
passed). Emits a ``reclaimed`` event with ``manual: True`` payload.
* ``kanban_db.reassign_task(task_id, profile, reclaim_first=...)`` —
switch a task to a different profile, optionally reclaiming a stuck
running worker in the same call.
* ``hermes kanban reclaim <id> [--reason ...]`` and
``hermes kanban reassign <id> <profile> [--reclaim] [--reason ...]``
CLI subcommands wired through to the same helpers.
* ``POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/{id}/reclaim`` and
``POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/{id}/reassign`` endpoints on the
dashboard plugin.
Dashboard surfacing
-------------------
* ⚠ **warning badge** on cards with active hallucination events.
* **attention strip** at the top of the board listing all flagged
tasks; dismissible per session.
* **events callout** in the task drawer — hallucination events render
with a red left border, amber icon, and phantom ids as styled chips.
* **recovery section** in the task drawer with three actions: Reclaim,
Reassign (with profile picker + reclaim-first checkbox), and a
copy-to-clipboard hint for ``hermes -p <profile> model`` since
profile config lives on disk and can't be edited from the browser.
Auto-opens when the task has warnings, collapsed otherwise.
Keyed by task id so state doesn't leak between drawers.
Active-vs-stale rule: warnings clear when a clean ``completed`` or
``edited`` event supersedes the hallucination, so recovery is never
permanently stigmatising — the audit events persist for debugging but
the badge goes away once the worker succeeds.
Skill updates
-------------
* ``skills/devops/kanban-worker/SKILL.md`` documents the
``created_cards`` contract with good/bad examples.
* ``skills/devops/kanban-orchestrator/SKILL.md`` gains a "Recovering
stuck workers" section with the three actions and when to use each.
Tests
-----
* Kernel gate: verified-cards manifest, phantom rejection + audit
event, cross-worker rejection, prose scan positive + negative.
* Recovery helpers: reclaim on running task, reclaim on non-running
returns False, reassign refuses running without reclaim_first,
reassign with reclaim_first succeeds on running.
* API endpoints: warnings field present on /board and /tasks/:id,
warnings cleared after clean completion, reclaim 200 + 409 paths,
reassign 200 + 409 + reclaim_first paths.
* CLI smoke: reclaim + reassign subcommands.
Live-verified end-to-end on a dashboard with seeded scenarios:
attention strip renders, badges land on the right cards, drawer
callout shows phantom chips, Reclaim on a running task flips status to
ready + emits manual reclaimed event + refreshes the drawer,
Reassign swaps the assignee and triggers board refresh.
359/359 kanban-suite tests pass
(test_kanban_{db,cli,boards,core_functionality} + dashboard + tools).
Follow-up polish to the kanban dashboard from #19864 and #19705.
**Home-channel toggle contrast.** The `.hermes-kanban-home-sub--on`
class previously used `color-mix(var(--color-ring) 14%, transparent)`
which was nearly invisible on both the default teal and NERV themes —
the on/off distinction relied almost entirely on the ✓ prefix glyph.
Bump to 32% fill + full-opacity ring border + inner ring shadow +
font-weight 600. Still theme-scoped (no hardcoded colors), but reads
at a glance on both tested themes.
**Drop the → running status action.** Since #19705, `PATCH /tasks/:id`
rejects `status=running` with HTTP 400 — only the dispatcher's
`claim_task` path legitimately enters that state (so the run row,
claim lock, and worker PID are created atomically). The UI button was
still present and produced a 400 on click, which is a confusing dead
affordance. Remove it from `StatusActions`; add a comment pointing to
#19535 so future editors know why it's missing.
Live-tested on the default Hermes Teal theme. 53/53 kanban dashboard
plugin tests still pass.
* revert: auto-subscribe gateway chat on tool-driven kanban_create (#19718)
Reverts ff3d2773e2. Teknium reviewed the merged PR and decided this
behavior isn't wanted — tool-driven kanban_create should not mirror
the slash-command path's auto-subscribe. Orchestrators that want
their originating chat notified can call kanban_notify-subscribe
explicitly; we're not going to make it implicit.
* feat(kanban-dashboard): per-platform home-channel notification toggles
Adds a "Notify home channels" section to the task drawer in the kanban
dashboard plugin. Each platform where the user has set a home channel
(/sethome, TELEGRAM_HOME_CHANNEL env var, gateway.platforms.<p>.home_channel
in config.yaml) gets a toggle pill. Toggling on writes a kanban_notify_subs
row keyed to that platform's home (chat_id + thread_id); toggling off
removes it. The existing gateway notifier watcher delivers completed /
blocked / gave_up events without any new plumbing — this is purely a GUI
surface over existing machinery.
Replaces the reverted auto-subscribe behavior from #19718 with an explicit,
per-task, per-platform, user-controlled opt-in. No implicit subscription
on tool-driven kanban_create; no CLI commands; no slash commands. Just a
toggle in the drawer.
Backend (plugins/kanban/dashboard/plugin_api.py):
- GET /api/plugins/kanban/home-channels[?task_id=X]
Returns every platform with a configured home, plus a per-entry
subscribed: bool relative to task_id (false when task_id omitted).
Reads the live GatewayConfig via load_gateway_config() so env-var
overlays stay honored.
- POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/:id/home-subscribe/:platform
Idempotent add_notify_sub keyed to the platform's home.
- DELETE /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/:id/home-subscribe/:platform
remove_notify_sub for the same tuple.
- 404 when the platform has no home configured, or task_id doesn't
exist (POST only).
Frontend (plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/index.js):
- TaskDrawer fetches /home-channels on open, keyed on task_id.
- HomeSubsSection renders nothing when zero platforms have a home (so
users who haven't set one up don't see an empty UI block).
- Optimistic toggle with busy flag + revert-on-failure. One pill per
platform; ✓ prefix and --on class indicate the subscribed state.
CSS (plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/style.css):
- .hermes-kanban-home-subs flex row + .hermes-kanban-home-sub pill
style + --on subscribed variant (subtle ring-colored background).
Live-tested against a dashboard with TELEGRAM + DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN /
HOME_CHANNEL env vars set: drawer shows both pills, toggling each
flips its visual state AND writes/removes the correct kanban_notify_subs
row (verified via direct DB read).
Tests (tests/plugins/test_kanban_dashboard_plugin.py, 11 new, 53/53
pass total):
- home-channels lists only platforms with a home (slack with a
token but no home is excluded)
- no task_id -> all subscribed=false
- subscribe creates notify_sub row with correct chat/thread/platform
- subscribed=true reflected in subsequent GET
- idempotent re-subscribe
- unknown platform -> 404
- unknown task -> 404
- unsubscribe removes the row
- telegram + discord subscribe/unsubscribe independent
- zero homes -> empty list
The PATCH /tasks/:id endpoint allows setting status='running' via
_set_status_direct(), bypassing the dispatcher/claim path that creates
run rows, claim locks, expiry, and worker process metadata. This can
leave tasks stuck in 'running' with no active worker.
Fix: reject status='running' with HTTP 400, requiring all transitions
to 'running' to go through the canonical claim_task() path.
Closes#19535
Adds first-class board support to kanban so users can separate unrelated
streams of work (projects, repos, domains) into isolated queues. Single-
project users stay on the 'default' board and see no UI change.
Isolation model
---------------
- Each board is a directory at `~/.hermes/kanban/boards/<slug>/` with
its own `kanban.db`, `workspaces/`, and `logs/`. The 'default' board
keeps its legacy path (`~/.hermes/kanban.db`) for back-compat — fresh
installs and pre-boards users get zero migration.
- Workers spawned by the dispatcher have `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` pinned in
their env alongside the existing `HERMES_KANBAN_DB` /
`HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACES_ROOT` pins, so workers physically cannot see
other boards' tasks.
- The gateway's single dispatcher loop now sweeps every board per tick;
per-tick cost is a few extra filesystem stats.
- CAS concurrency guarantees are preserved per-board (each board is its
own SQLite DB, same WAL+IMMEDIATE machinery as before).
CLI
---
hermes kanban boards list|create|switch|show|rename|rm
hermes kanban --board <slug> <any-subcommand>
Board resolution order: `--board` flag → `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` env →
`~/.hermes/kanban/current` file → `default`. Slug validation is strict:
lowercase alphanumerics + hyphens + underscores, 1-64 chars, starts with
alphanumeric. Uppercase is auto-downcased; slashes / dots / `..` /
control chars are rejected so boards can't name their way out of the
boards/ directory.
Passive discoverability: when more than one board exists, `hermes kanban
list` prints a one-line header ("Board: foo (2 other boards …)") so
users who stumble across multi-project never have to hunt for the
feature. Invisible for single-board installs.
Dashboard
---------
- New `BoardSwitcher` component at the top of the Kanban tab: dropdown
with all boards + task counts, `+ New board` button, `Archive`
button (non-default only). Hidden entirely when only `default` exists
and is empty — single-project users never see it.
- New `NewBoardDialog` modal: slug / display name / description / icon
+ "switch to this board after creating" checkbox.
- Selected board persists to `localStorage` so browser users don't
shift the CLI's active board out from under a terminal they left open.
- New `?board=<slug>` query param on every existing endpoint plus a
new `/boards` CRUD surface (`GET /boards`, `POST /boards`,
`PATCH /boards/<slug>`, `DELETE /boards/<slug>`,
`POST /boards/<slug>/switch`).
- Events WebSocket is pinned to a board at connection time; switching
opens a fresh WS against the new board.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug in the plugin's tenant / assignee
filters: the SDK's `Select` uses `onValueChange(value)`, not
native `onChange(event)`, so those filters silently didn't work.
New `selectChangeHandler` helper wires both signatures.
Tests
-----
49 new tests in `tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_boards.py` covering:
slug validation (valid / invalid / auto-downcase), path resolution
(default = legacy path, named = `boards/<slug>/`, env var override),
current-board resolution chain (env > file > default), board CRUD +
archive / hard-delete, per-board connection isolation (tasks don't
leak), worker spawn env injection (`HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD`,
`HERMES_KANBAN_DB`, `HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACES_ROOT` all point at the
right board), and end-to-end CLI surface.
Regression surface: all 264 pre-existing kanban tests continue to pass.
Live-tested via the dashboard: created 3 boards (default,
hermes-agent, atm10-server), created tasks on each via both CLI
(`--board <slug> create`) and dashboard (inline create on the Ready
column), confirmed zero cross-board leakage, confirmed `BoardSwitcher`
+ `NewBoardDialog` work end-to-end in the browser.
Closes#18718. Exposes the existing `workspace_kind` + `workspace_path`
fields (already accepted by POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks) in the
dashboard's per-column inline-create form so users can create tasks
targeting a git worktree or an explicit directory without dropping
back to the CLI.
- Add a workspace-kind Select (scratch / worktree / dir) to
InlineCreate in plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/index.js.
- Conditionally render a workspace_path Input next to the select when
kind != scratch; placeholder tells the user whether the path is
required (dir) or optional (worktree — derived from assignee when
blank).
- Submit wires `workspace_kind` / `workspace_path` into the POST body
only when they're non-default, keeping the request shape small and
interoperable with older dispatcher versions.
E2E verified in a dashboard pointed at the worktree: selecting dir +
typing /tmp/test-18718 produces a POST body with
{workspace_kind: 'dir', workspace_path: '/tmp/test-18718'} and the
task lands in sqlite with those fields set. 42/42 kanban dashboard
plugin tests pass.
Closes#18576. Addresses three of four complaints from the readability
report; live-verified in a dashboard against a seeded task with body,
comments, and run history.
- Drawer default width 480px → 640px, exposed as the CSS var
`--hermes-kanban-drawer-width` so deployments / user themes can
override without forking the plugin.
- Bump body/meta/pre/log/run-history font sizes from the 0.65-0.75rem
cluster to the 0.78-0.85rem cluster. Long paths and code snippets in
task bodies, run metadata, and worker logs are legible again instead
of requiring a squint.
- Fix the black-text-on-dark-theme regression in fenced markdown code
blocks. Root cause: themes that don't define `--color-foreground`
(NERV, at least) leave `color: var(--color-foreground)` resolving
empty on <code>, which then falls back to the UA default (near-black)
instead of inheriting from the drawer's <body>. Fix: force
`color: inherit` on both inline and fenced code, and give the fenced
block background via `currentColor` instead of `--color-foreground`
so there's a visible card even when the theme var is absent.
Out of scope for this PR (comments added to #18576):
- Draggable resize handle (structural JS work; plugin ships built-only,
no src/ in-tree).
- Live worker-log viewer for running tasks (backend WS + component).
- Sibling fix: themes like NERV should define --color-foreground. The
current changes make the drawer robust against that gap, but the
root fix belongs in the theme layer.
