Inside the published Docker image, `hermes update` was hitting the
".git missing → reinstall via curl" fallback:
✗ Not a git repository. Please reinstall:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/.../install.sh | bash
That message is wrong on two counts:
1. It tells the user to run the host-side installer, which would
install a *new* Hermes on the host — not update the running
container.
2. It doesn't mention `docker pull` at all, leaving Docker users
to figure out the right action from scratch.
`hermes update --check` was worse: it bailed with "Not a git
repository — cannot check for updates." and nothing else.
Fix: detect the Docker install method (already stamped by
`docker/stage2-hook.sh` and surfaced by `detect_install_method()`)
in both update entry points and print a long-form message that
covers:
- The right command: `docker pull nousresearch/hermes-agent:latest`
- Restart guidance (`docker compose up -d --force-recreate` /
re-run `docker run`)
- How to verify the new version after restart
- Tag-pinning caveat (`:latest` doesn't move a pinned tag)
- Config persistence across upgrades (state under `HERMES_HOME` /
`/opt/data` is bind-mounted and survives)
- Fork escape hatch (build your own image with the repo's Dockerfile)
Exit code is 1 (matches `managed_error` semantic for "tried to
update but can't update this way").
Plumbing:
- hermes_cli/config.py: new `format_docker_update_message()` helper
sits next to the existing `_NIX_UPDATE_MSG` /
`format_managed_message()` family so the wording lives in one
place and both call sites (apply path + check path) consume it.
- hermes_cli/main.py:
* `cmd_update()`: bail right after the `is_managed()` gate, before
any of the apply-path branches.
* `_cmd_update_check()`: bail at the top of the function, before
the existing `method == "pip"` branch.
Neither path touches subprocess.run / git when method == "docker".
Coverage:
- 7 new tests in `tests/hermes_cli/test_cmd_update_docker.py`:
* `hermes update` in Docker → message + exit 1, no git calls
* `hermes update --check` (via cmd_update) → same
* `--yes` / `--force` don't bypass (intentional)
* `_cmd_update_check` called directly → bails too
* git/pip installs still take their normal paths (regression guards)
* `format_docker_update_message` content-lock test pinning the
five user-actionable bits the message must contain
- Existing test_cmd_update.py (21 tests) + test_managed_installs.py
(5 tests) still pass — no regression on the source-install path.
- Verified end-to-end in a real container: `docker run ... update`
and `docker run ... update --check` both render the message and
exit 1.
`hermes dump` and the startup banner both call `git rev-parse HEAD` to
report the running commit, but `.dockerignore` line 2 excludes `.git` —
so inside the published image `hermes dump` shows
`version: ... [(unknown)]` and the banner drops its `· upstream <sha>`
suffix entirely. That makes support triage from container bug reports
impossible: we can't tell which commit the user is actually running.
Fix: thread the build-time SHA through as a Docker build-arg, write it
to `/opt/hermes/.hermes_build_sha` in the image, and have a new
`hermes_cli/build_info.get_build_sha()` read it as a fallback after the
existing live-git lookup fails. Output format is unchanged in both
callsites — same 8-char short SHA whether resolved live or baked.
Wiring:
- Dockerfile: `ARG HERMES_GIT_SHA=` + write-file step after the source
copy. Empty/missing arg → no file written → callers fall through to
live git (so local `docker build` without --build-arg is unchanged).
- docker-publish.yml: passes `HERMES_GIT_SHA=${{ github.sha }}` on all
four build-push-action steps (amd64/arm64, smoke-test + final push).
- dump.py:_get_git_commit() / banner.py:get_git_banner_state(): try
live git first, fall back to baked SHA, then to legacy `(unknown)`
/ None. Banner returns `upstream == local, ahead=0` because a built
image is by definition pinned to one commit.
Coverage:
- Unit tests cover build_info (file present/absent/empty/error,
truncation, whitespace), dump (live-git wins, both fallbacks,
identical output-format regression guard), and banner (no-repo +
baked, no-repo + no-sha, shallow-clone fallback).
- tests/docker/test_dump_build_sha.py is an integration regression
guard that runs against the real image, reads
`/opt/hermes/.hermes_build_sha`, and asserts `hermes dump` surfaces
its content (or stays at `(unknown)` if no file).
- Verified end-to-end: `docker build --build-arg HERMES_GIT_SHA=abc...`
→ `docker run ... dump` reports `[abc12345]`; without the build-arg
it reports `[(unknown)]` as before.
`sqlite3.Connection.__exit__` commits/rollbacks but does NOT close the
underlying FD. `with kb.connect() as conn:` in long-lived processes
(gateway `run_slash`, dashboard `decompose_task_endpoint`) therefore
leaks one FD to `kanban.db` per call. After enough operations the
gateway dies with `[Errno 24] Too many open files` (~4 days uptime
in the production report — #33159).
Fix: add a `connect_closing()` context manager in `hermes_cli/kanban_db`
that wraps `connect()` with a real `try/finally: conn.close()`. Switch
the 42 leak-prone call sites in `hermes_cli/kanban.py` (35),
`hermes_cli/kanban_decompose.py` (4), and `hermes_cli/kanban_specify.py`
(3) over to it.
`kanban.py` matters because `run_slash` (called from the gateway for
every `/kanban` slash command) parses argparse and dispatches to those
`_cmd_*` functions in-process — each one was leaking one FD per
invocation.
Tests inside `tests/` are untouched: short-lived processes where OS
cleanup masks the leak. Regression tests added in
`test_kanban_db.py` cover both happy-path and exception-path closure,
plus an explicit assertion that bare `with kb.connect()` still does
NOT close (documenting the upstream sqlite3 behaviour we're working
around).
Closes#33159.
Follow-up to #33583 (the gateway-run-supervised redirect).
Before this fix, the supervised gateway's stdout (most visibly the
"Hermes Gateway Starting…" rich-console banner) was swallowed by
`s6-log` into the rotated file at
`${HERMES_HOME}/logs/gateways/<profile>/current` and never reached
`docker logs`. Operational signal lived in two places:
* **docker logs** — saw stderr (Python `logging` defaults to
stderr), so warnings/errors were visible.
* **the rotated file** — saw stdout (rich banners, `print()`
output, third-party libs that wrote to fd 1).
This was surprising for users coming from the pre-s6 image, where
`docker run … gateway run` produced a single unified stream in
`docker logs`. They'd see partial output, conclude something was
broken, and dig around for the missing pieces.
Fix: add the `1` s6-log action directive before the file destination
so each line is forwarded to s6-log's stdout — which propagates up
the s6-supervise pipeline to /init's stdout = container stdout =
`docker logs`. The file destination is preserved as a second
destination, so the rotated log (with ISO 8601 timestamps) still
exists for `hermes logs` and for survival across container restarts.
Trade-off considered: timestamps. Putting `T` between `1` and the
file destination (not before `1`) means:
* docker logs sees raw lines — Python's logging formatter has its
own timestamps, and `docker logs --timestamps` adds another
layer when desired. No double-stamping in the common reading
path.
* The persisted file gets s6-log's ISO 8601 timestamp so even
output that lacked a Python-logger timestamp (rich banners,
third-party raw prints) is correlatable in `current`.
Verification:
* New unit-test assertion in `test_service_manager.py` locks the
`s6-log 1` directive into the rendered run-script. Mutation-
tested by reverting to the pre-fix script (no `1`); the assert
catches it cleanly.
* New docker-harness test `test_supervised_gateway_stdout_reaches_docker_logs`
builds the image, runs `docker run … gateway run`, and asserts
the unique `⚕` banner glyph reaches `docker logs`. Also verifies
the rotated file still contains the banner (no regression on
the existing file destination). Mutation-tested end-to-end: built
a deliberately-broken image without the `1` directive and the
test failed exactly as designed, citing the banner present in
`current` but absent from `docker logs`.
* `website/docs/user-guide/docker.md` gains a new `:::note Where
gateway logs go` admonition documenting both destinations and
the audit-log file at `${HERMES_HOME}/logs/container-boot.log`.
Existing functionality preserved: every other docker-harness test
still passes against the new image. Unit-test sweep across
`tests/hermes_cli/` (5561 tests) is green.
* fix(tui): suppress mouse-residue leaks during Python launcher startup
`hermes --tui …` spends ~100–300ms inside the Python launcher (lazy
imports, arg parsing, session resolution) before exec'ing the Node TUI
binary. During that window stdin is still in cooked + echo mode. If a
prior session left DEC mouse tracking asserted (or the user spammed
mouse movement while the previous session was opening), the terminal
keeps emitting `\\x1b[<…M` SGR motion reports that get echoed straight
back into the user's shell scrollback as literal `^[[<…M` text and
sit there above the TUI banner until the next clear.
The Node side already calls `resetTerminalModes()` in `entry.tsx`, but
by then the race is already lost — the bytes echoed during the Python
warmup window were committed to the scrollback before Node started.
Fix: write the mouse-tracking disable sequence at the very top of
`hermes_cli.main`, before every heavy import. The terminal stops
emitting motion events as soon as the bytes hit the wire (one TTY
round-trip), shrinking the race window from hundreds of milliseconds
to a few. `HERMES_TUI_NO_EARLY_DISABLE=1` opts out for diagnostics.
* test(tui): drop dead _reload_main, hoist import out of patch context
Addresses Copilot review on PR #31213.
The tests used to import `hermes_cli.main` inside the `patch("os.write")`
context, which Copilot pointed out is order-dependent: if the module
is already loaded (e.g. imported by a prior test in the same process),
the import is a no-op and the patch only sees the explicit
`_suppress_mouse_residue_early()` call. Either way the assertion can
flake when run alongside other tests.
Move the import to module scope — every subprocess gets a fresh
`hermes_cli.main`, whose module-level invocation is a no-op under
pytest argv. Tests then exercise `_suppress_mouse_residue_early()`
directly inside their own patch context. Also drop the unused
`_reload_main` helper.
* fix(tui): skip early mouse-disable when stdout is not a TTY
Addresses Copilot review on PR #31213.
`hermes --tui … >log` or CI capture pipes fd 1 away from the terminal.
The disable bytes can't reach the terminal in that case but would
still get written into the log file as raw CSI sequences. Guard with
`os.isatty(1)` inside the existing `try/except OSError` block so the
'never break startup' contract holds.
* docs(tui): rephrase 'raw cooked mode' as 'cooked + echo mode'
Copilot review nit on PR #31213 — the original wording was self-
contradictory. Pre-TUI stdin state is cooked + echo (kernel TTY
discipline still owns the line buffer and echoes input back). The
TUI switches it to raw mode later when Ink mounts.
Pre-s6, `docker run nousresearch/hermes-agent gateway run` was the
standard invocation: gateway ran as the container's main process,
tini reaped zombies, container exit code matched gateway exit code,
no supervision. With s6-overlay as PID 1, the same invocation now
auto-upgrades to supervised semantics — auto-restart on crash,
dashboard supervised alongside (when HERMES_DASHBOARD=1 is set),
multiple profile gateways under the same /init.
Users get the new behavior with zero changes to their docker run
command. A loud one-line breadcrumb on stderr explains the upgrade
and points at the opt-out for users who genuinely want pre-s6
foreground semantics.
How it works:
1. `_gateway_command_inner` (the `gateway run` handler) checks if
we're inside a container with s6 as PID 1.
2. If yes, dispatches `start` to the s6 service manager (registers
and starts gateway-default), then `exec sleep infinity` to keep
the CMD process alive without binding container lifetime to
gateway PID lifetime. The supervised gateway can flap freely;
`docker stop` still tears everything down via /init stage 3.
3. If no, falls through to the existing foreground code path
unchanged. Host runs of `hermes gateway run` are unaffected.
Three gates make the redirect inert outside the intended scope:
* `detect_service_manager() != "s6"` — host/non-s6-container runs.
* `HERMES_S6_SUPERVISED_CHILD=1` env var (recursion guard) —
exported by `S6ServiceManager._render_run_script` for the
s6-supervised invocation itself. Without this guard, the
supervised `gateway run --replace` would re-enter the redirect
and recurse (run → start → run → start → ...) infinitely.
* `--no-supervise` CLI flag OR `HERMES_GATEWAY_NO_SUPERVISE=1` env
var — explicit user opt-out for CI smoke tests, debugging the
foreground startup path, or any case wanting "CMD exit =
container exit" semantics. Strict truthiness (1/true/yes,
case-insensitive); typos like `=0` do NOT silently opt out.
Tests:
* Unit tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_gateway_s6_dispatch.py
cover all five paths (host no-op, supervised fire, sentinel
recursion guard, CLI flag, env var truthy + falsy). The two
load-bearing gates (sentinel + opt-out) were mutation-tested
by removing each gate in isolation and confirming the dedicated
test fails with the expected error.
* Docker harness tests in tests/docker/test_gateway_run_supervised.py
cover the round trips end-to-end against a built image: redirect
fires (sleep-infinity heartbeat + supervised gateway-default
slot + breadcrumb), --no-supervise opt-out (foreground gateway,
no want-up on the slot), HERMES_GATEWAY_NO_SUPERVISE env var
works identically, recursion is impossible (≤1 supervised
python gateway-run + exactly 1 sleep-infinity parented to the
CMD wrapper), and HERMES_DASHBOARD=1 produces both supervised
gateway and supervised dashboard.
Docs:
* Added a `:::tip Gateway runs supervised` admonition near the
main docker.md example explaining the upgrade and pointing at
the opt-out. Pre-s6 (tini-based) images still run gateway run
as the foreground main process, so the note is scoped to the
s6 image only.
Trade-off documented in the helper docstring: container exit code
under the redirect is sleep's exit code (always 0 on SIGTERM), not
the gateway's. That was an explicit design call — the supervised
gateway is allowed to flap without taking the container with it,
which is what "supervision" means. CI users who want exit-code
forwarding can pass --no-supervise.
Reaper now runs at the top of every dispatcher tick regardless of per-board connect() failures. Previously the reaper sat inside dispatch_once after the kanban_db.connect() call — any EIO during connect would skip reaping for that tick, accumulating zombie workers and stale claim_lock rows.
Also: reap_worker_zombies now returns the list of reaped pids (the dispatcher logs them) and a test indentation fix.
Squashes three sibling commits from PR #32301 into one logical change for batch review.
Reads header bytes 28-31 after every COMMIT and compares against actual file size. Raises sqlite3.DatabaseError on torn-extend (actual_pages < page_count). Also sets PRAGMA wal_autocheckpoint=100 in connect().

`detect_crashed_workers` calls `_pid_alive` on every `running` task whose
claim is held by this host. The check can transiently return False for a
freshly-spawned worker (fork → /proc-visibility lag, or reap-race
between SIGCHLD and parent reaping). When a second dispatcher ticks
inside that window it reclaims the task and spawns a duplicate worker.
Add `DEFAULT_CRASH_GRACE_SECONDS = 30` and an
`HERMES_KANBAN_CRASH_GRACE_SECONDS` env-var override.
`detect_crashed_workers` skips the liveness check when
`time.time() - started_at < grace`. The existing 15-minute claim TTL
still reclaims genuinely-crashed workers; grace only suppresses the
launch-window false positive.
`HERMES_KANBAN_CRASH_GRACE_SECONDS=0` is set on the `kanban_home`
fixture in `test_kanban_core_functionality.py` so existing tests that
assert immediate reclaim retain pre-fix semantics.
Companion to merged PR #23442 (`release_stale_claims`, closes#23025),
which addressed the same multi-dispatcher race in the stale-claim path.
Related: #20015 (`_pid_alive` false-negative behaviour),
When code inside a write_txn block raises an OperationalError that SQLite
has already auto-rolled-back (typical for disk I/O error,
database is locked, and database disk image is malformed), the
explicit ROLLBACK in write_txn.__exit__ itself raises
cannot rollback - no transaction is active and the secondary exception
replaces the original in the traceback. Operators see a misleading error
and lose the diagnostic information they need.
Swallow the rollback-time OperationalError so the caller always sees the
original cause.

Production corruption #6 left b-tree pages with zeroed headers but intact old cell content — the Bug E pattern. This fix applies three pragma calls on every connect():
- synchronous=FULL (was NORMAL): closes the WAL-checkpoint reordering window where a crash between WAL commit and main-DB write leaves a partially-written b-tree page header. Cost is <1ms per commit on local SSD; negligible at kanban write volume.
- secure_delete=ON: forces SQLite to zero freed page bytes on disk. If a torn write or hardware fault later corrupts a page, the underlying cell content is zero, so corruption is detectable and no stale rows can resurface as live data.
- cell_size_check=ON: adds a read-side guard so corrupt cells surface as errors at read time rather than as silent wrong-data returns.
All three are connection-scoped and re-applied on every connect(). secure_delete also writes a persistent flag into the DB header on the first call against a fresh DB, making the protection durable across processes for new DBs.
Tests added for all four required cases: each pragma active on a fresh connection, and all three re-applied after close+reopen. Also adds the required negative test (migration path does not reset pragmas).
The upstream sync logic only ran after a successful origin pull,
so forks whose origin/main was already in sync with local (but
behind upstream/main) would bail out with "Already up to date!"
without ever checking upstream.
DEFAULT_CODEX_MODELS shipped three slugs that the chatgpt.com Codex
backend rejects with HTTP 400 'The <slug> model is not supported when
using Codex with a ChatGPT account.' on every account tested live:
gpt-5.2-codex
gpt-5.1-codex-max
gpt-5.1-codex-mini
Live verified against https://chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex/models
which returns gpt-5.5, gpt-5.4, gpt-5.4-mini, gpt-5.3-codex,
gpt-5.3-codex-spark, gpt-5.2 for ChatGPT Pro accounts.
When _fetch_models_from_api fell back to DEFAULT_CODEX_MODELS (offline
first-run, transient API failure) the picker surfaced these dead slugs
and crashed on selection. The forward-compat synthesis table chained
them downstream too.
If OpenAI re-enables them on the OAuth-backed Codex backend, live
discovery will pick them up automatically — the defaults list is only
consulted when live discovery is unavailable.
Test fixture pivoted to use gpt-5.3-codex (templated by 4 entries) as
the synthesis driver so the forward-compat test still exercises the
synthesis path.
* feat(image_gen): add Krea provider plugin (Krea 2 Medium + Large)
New built-in image_gen backend wrapping Krea's Krea 2 foundation
image model family. Auto-discovered like the other image_gen plugins
and appears in 'hermes tools' → Image Generation → Krea.
Krea's API is asynchronous — submit returns a job_id, poll /jobs/{id}
until terminal. The provider hides that behind the synchronous
ImageGenProvider.generate() contract: submit, poll every 2s with
light backoff (max 5s), 3-minute ceiling matching Krea's hosted-tool
timeout. Result URL is materialised to $HERMES_HOME/cache/images/
to avoid CDN-expiry 404s downstream (same fix as xAI #26942).
Models:
- krea-2-medium (default — Krea's 'start here' recommendation)
- krea-2-large
Aspect ratios map landscape→16:9, square→1:1, portrait→9:16.
Resolution: 1K (Krea's only current option).
Kwarg passthrough: seed, creativity (raw/low/medium/high), styles,
image_style_references (capped 10), moodboards (capped 1) — matches
Krea's per-request limits. Unknown kwargs are ignored.
Config knobs (config.yaml):
image_gen.provider: krea
image_gen.krea.model: krea-2-medium | krea-2-large
image_gen.krea.creativity: raw | low | medium | high
Env overrides: KREA_API_KEY (required), KREA_IMAGE_MODEL.
KREA_API_KEY is registered in OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS so 'hermes setup'
prompts for it.
31 new tests; image_gen suite + picker + tools_config: 211/211.
* fix(image_gen/krea): address review feedback
- Update KREA_API_KEY setup URL to the canonical token-creation page
(https://www.krea.ai/app/api/tokens). The previous URL returned 404.
- Fail fast on non-retryable HTTP statuses during poll. The previous
loop retried every HTTPError for the full 180s deadline, so an auth
(401), billing (402), forbidden (403), or not-found (404) response
would make image_generate hang for three minutes. Only retry
transient statuses (408/409/425/429/5xx); surface everything else
immediately.
- Add 5 tests covering fail-fast on 401/403/404 and retry on 429/503.
* fix(krea): point users at the real API token dashboard URL
Three call sites linked users to dashboard pages that don't exist:
- hermes_cli/config.py: https://www.krea.ai/app/api/tokens
- plugins/image_gen/krea/__init__.py get_setup_schema: https://www.krea.ai/api-keys
- plugins/image_gen/krea/__init__.py auth_required error: https://www.krea.ai/api-keys
Per Krea's own docs (https://docs.krea.ai/developers/api-keys-and-billing),
the real dashboard URL is https://www.krea.ai/settings/api-tokens. All three
sites now point there.
In profile mode, _load_provider_state previously returned None when a
provider was absent from the profile's auth.json — even if the user had
authenticated at the global root. This broke runtime credential resolvers
that read state directly (resolve_nous_access_token,
resolve_nous_runtime_credentials), causing profiles without their own
nous login to fail with 'Hermes is not logged into Nous Portal' despite
a valid global session.
Push the existing read-only global fallback (already used by
get_provider_auth_state and read_credential_pool) into _load_provider_state
so every caller benefits, and simplify get_provider_auth_state into a thin
wrapper. Writes still target the profile only — profile state continues to
shadow global state on the next read after a per-profile login. Behavior in
classic (non-profile) mode is unchanged because _load_global_auth_store
returns an empty dict.
Adds 5 tests covering the new contract on _load_provider_state directly.
Existing 770 auth/credential/nous tests still pass.
Closes#32992.
The chat path resolves Codex credentials via `resolve_codex_runtime_credentials`
which only reads `providers.openai-codex.tokens` (the singleton). The auxiliary
path uses `_read_codex_access_token` which checks the credential_pool first.
For users whose tokens live only in the pool — manual seed, partial re-auth,
restore from backup, or any state where the singleton is empty but the pool
is healthy — the chat path raised AuthError or (worse, since OpenAI(api_key='')
silently attaches no header) the wire saw HTTP 401 "Missing Authentication header"
while the auxiliary path worked fine.
This adds a pool fallback to `resolve_codex_runtime_credentials`: when the
singleton has no usable access_token, scan `credential_pool.openai-codex` for
the first entry that has a non-empty access_token and isn't in an exhaustion
cooldown window (`last_error_reset_at` in the future). If found, return that
token with `source="credential_pool"`. If no usable entry exists, the original
AuthError propagates as before.
Regression tests cover:
- Empty singleton + healthy pool entry → pool token returned
- Pool fallback skips entries currently in cooldown
- Empty singleton + empty/wedged pool → AuthError propagates (existing contract preserved)
When the Codex OAuth token endpoint returns 429 (usage-limit / quota
exhaustion), refresh_codex_oauth_pure raised a generic auth error that the
gateway surfaced as 'Primary provider auth failed: No Codex credentials
stored. Run hermes auth', prompting re-auth that cannot lift a quota cap.
Classify 429 distinctly (codex_rate_limited, relogin_required=False) with a
non-alarming quota message that honors Retry-After, log it as
'Primary provider rate-limited (429)', and stop format_auth_error from
appending the re-authenticate remediation. Also log the fallback provider's
literal config key instead of the resolved runtime category.
Refs #32790
Codex re-auth via `hermes setup` / `hermes model` wrote fresh OAuth
tokens to providers.openai-codex.tokens but left the credential_pool
device_code entry holding the consumed refresh token and stale error
markers. Since the runtime selects from the pool, the next request
spent a dead token and got a 401 token_invalidated. Update the
singleton-seeded pool entries in lockstep and clear their error state.
Fixes#33000
Operators behind reverse proxies that don't reliably forward
X-Forwarded-Host / X-Forwarded-Proto / X-Forwarded-Prefix (manual
nginx setups, on-prem ingresses, custom-domain Fly deploys with
incomplete proxy chains) had no way to force the absolute base URL
the OAuth callback redirects from. The dashboard would reconstruct
the redirect_uri from request headers, the IDP would echo it back,
and the user would land on the wrong host or wrong path — 404.
Add `dashboard.public_url` to config.yaml with env override
HERMES_DASHBOARD_PUBLIC_URL. When set, it is the complete authority —
scheme + host + optional path prefix (e.g. https://example.com/hermes) —
and becomes the base for the OAuth `redirect_uri`. X-Forwarded-Prefix
is IGNORED on this code path because the operator has explicitly
declared the public URL; we no longer need to guess from proxy
headers, and stacking the prefix on top would double-prefix the
common case where the prefix is already baked into public_url.
When unset, the existing proxy_headers + X-Forwarded-Prefix
reconstruction runs untouched. Existing Fly.io deploys continue to
work without configuration — this is purely additive.
Precedence mirrors dashboard.oauth.client_id:
env (non-empty) > config.yaml > reconstructed from request
Implementation:
- hermes_cli/config.py: add dashboard.public_url to DEFAULT_CONFIG
with a multi-paragraph doc comment explaining the use case,
the X-Forwarded-Prefix interaction, and the validation rules.
- hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/prefix.py: factored out the existing
_REJECT_CHARS frozenset, added _normalise_public_url() validator
(requires http/https scheme + non-empty host + no header-injection
chars), _load_dashboard_section() loader (robust to load_config
raising, non-dict shapes), and resolve_public_url() entry point
with the env-overrides-config precedence. A malformed value
silently falls through to ""; the caller treats "" as "reconstruct
from request" so a typo never breaks the login flow.
- hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/routes.py: rewrite _redirect_uri()
docstring to spell out the three resolution tiers; add the
public_url short-circuit before the existing X-Forwarded-Prefix
splicing. Source-level comment notes that X-Forwarded-Prefix is
intentionally ignored when public_url is set so a future reader
doesn't try to "fix" the missing prefix layering.
- cli-config.yaml.example: extend the existing dashboard section
with a public_url block.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/web-dashboard.md: new "Public
URL override" section between the provider configuration and
the OAuth flow walkthrough. Documents the env-vs-config table,
the validation rules, and the `http://` `public_url` ↔ Secure
cookie footgun.
Test coverage — new TestPublicUrlOverride class (8 tests):
- env var overrides request reconstruction (the primary motivating
case)
- config.yaml used when env unset
- env wins over config (precedence pin)
- public_url with a path prefix already baked in (the Q1-a case the
user explicitly chose)
- public_url suppresses X-Forwarded-Prefix layering (defends
against the double-prefix bug)
- trailing slash stripped from public_url (no //auth/callback)
- malformed public_url falls through to reconstruction (six
hostile inputs: javascript:, ftp:, missing scheme, missing host,
quote chars, CRLF injection)
- empty env string doesn't shadow config.yaml entry (CI / Fly
provisioned-but-empty secret case)
Mutation-tested: flipping the precedence in resolve_public_url() trips
exactly test_env_overrides_config_public_url; weakening the validator
(accept any scheme) trips exactly test_malformed_public_url_falls_through_to_reconstruction.
Both other tests in each pair stay green, confirming the suite
discriminates the specific regression each test pins.
The login page is the first surface the user sees on a gated dashboard
and shipped with off-the-shelf system fonts and a generic orange
accent that didn't match the React dashboard waiting on the other
side of the OAuth round trip. Apply the same visual language the SPA
uses (the @nous-research/ui package) so the auth flow feels like one
product, not two.
What changes (visual only — no functional changes):
Typography
- Body: Collapse (regular + bold), served from /fonts/ — the same
woff2 files the dashboard SPA loads via the design-system's
fonts.css.
- Display: Rules Compressed (regular + medium) for the brand
wordmark and the page heading.
- Brand chrome (heading, buttons, footer) uses the DS idiom:
uppercase + letter-spacing 0.2em (matching the DS Button class).
Colour
- Background: #170d02 (deep brown-black; --background-base in DS).
- Accent: #ffac02 (amber; --midground in DS).
- Foreground: #ffffff.
- Hairlines: color-mix() of the midground at 18% / 35%, mirroring
the DS "@theme inline" derived tokens.
Button surface
- Solid amber surface with dark text, no rounded corners (DS Button
is squared). Inset bevel — — directly mirrors the DS
Button SHADOW_DEFAULT (). :active uses filter:invert(1) which matches the DS
Button's .
Atmosphere
- Subtle 3px dither (repeating-conic-gradient at 4% midground) +
a midground radial glow at top — same idioms as the DS .dither
utility and the SPA's panel chrome.
- slide-up fade-in entrance animation matching DS @keyframes
slide-up (0.6s ease-out). Honours prefers-reduced-motion.
Brand wordmark
- 'NOUS · RESEARCH' above the card in Rules Compressed, amber,
0.32em tracking. Establishes ownership before the user squints
at the buttons.
Empty-state page
- The 'Sign-in unavailable' fallback (no providers registered)
got the same colour-token and typography treatment so the
misconfigured-deploy experience is also coherent.
Fonts are served from /fonts/*.woff2 — a path the dashboard-auth gate
already allowlists pre-auth (see _GATE_PUBLIC_PREFIXES in
middleware.py:42), so the login page renders with the brand typeface
without needing the React bundle loaded. The page is still entirely
static HTML+CSS with no JS — the original constraint (no SPA
dependency, no session token) is preserved.
The class="provider-btn" selector is unchanged — the existing test
suite extracts the anchor href via that class, and a regression that
renamed it would silently break tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_auth_401_reauth.py.
A docstring note on the module flags this so future visual tweaks
don't break the contract by accident.
Visual smoke-test: rendered both the happy path (multiple providers
listed) and the empty-state page in a browser and verified all five
DS criteria — brown-black bg, amber accent, uppercase wide-tracking
type, inset-bevel buttons, Nous · Research wordmark — render
correctly with no unstyled fallbacks. 208/208 dashboard-auth tests
remain green.
Per AGENTS.md, ~/.hermes/.env is reserved for API keys / secrets and
config.yaml is the surface for non-secret configuration. The Nous
Portal plugin previously read HERMES_DASHBOARD_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID and
HERMES_DASHBOARD_PORTAL_URL from the environment only, which forced
local-dev / on-prem operators to put non-secret per-instance
configuration in .env — violating the convention.
Add dashboard.oauth.{client_id,portal_url} to DEFAULT_CONFIG and have
the plugin resolve each setting with env-overrides-config precedence:
1. Env var when set to a non-empty value (Fly.io platform-secret
injection — what pushes per-deploy client_ids without baking
them into the image).
2. config.yaml entry (canonical surface for local dev / on-prem).
3. Plugin default (no provider registered when client_id is empty;
portal_url defaults to https://portal.nousresearch.com).
Empty env values are explicitly treated as unset so a provisioned-but-
not-populated Fly secret can't accidentally shadow a valid config.yaml
entry with an empty string — operators would otherwise lose the gate.
Implementation:
- hermes_cli/config.py: add dashboard.oauth.{client_id,portal_url}
block to DEFAULT_CONFIG with full doc comment explaining the
override precedence and Fly.io rationale.
- plugins/dashboard_auth/nous/__init__.py: add _load_config_oauth_section,
_resolve_client_id, _resolve_portal_url helpers; replace the two
direct os.environ.get() calls in register() with the resolvers.
Update the skip-reason string to mention BOTH surfaces so an
operator looking at the fail-closed bind error knows config.yaml
is a valid alternative to the env var.
- plugins/dashboard_auth/nous/plugin.yaml: update description to
name both surfaces. requires_env stays pointing at the env var
name — it's metadata-only (not used by the plugin loader for
gating) so this is documentation/UX, not enforcement.
- cli-config.yaml.example: append commented dashboard.oauth block
with the same override rationale operators see in code.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/web-dashboard.md: rewrite the
'Default provider: Nous Research' section to lead with config.yaml,
present env vars as operator overrides (Fly.io's primary path).
Updated the example fail-closed bind error to match the new
skip-reason text.
Test coverage — new TestConfigYamlSource class (8 tests) pinning
every tier of the precedence chain:
- config-yaml-only path registers correctly
- both config-yaml fields (client_id + portal_url) honoured
- env var overrides config for client_id (Fly.io critical path)
- env var overrides config for portal_url
- empty env string does NOT shadow config (CI/Fly edge case)
- neither source set → skip with reason mentioning BOTH surfaces
- load_config() raising falls through to env-only path (resilience)
- non-dict oauth section falls through cleanly (typo resilience)
Mutation-tested: flipping the precedence to config-wins-over-env trips
exactly test_env_overrides_config_client_id while the other 7 stay
green, confirming the suite discriminates the order, not just the
sources.
This closes the last item in Teknium's PR review (PR #30156).
Mission-control style deploys reverse-proxy the dashboard at a path
prefix (e.g. mission-control.tilos.com/hermes/* -> :9119) and inject
X-Forwarded-Prefix: /hermes on every request. The SPA mount already
honoured this for asset URLs and the bootstrap __HERMES_BASE_PATH__,
but the OAuth gate didn't:
1. The gate's Location: header to /login and the 401 envelope's
login_url were built bare ("/login?next=..."). Under a /hermes
prefix the browser follows that to mission-control.tilos.com/login
which the proxy doesn't route to the dashboard.
2. _redirect_uri (the OAuth callback URL handed to the IDP) used
request.url_for() which doesn't honour X-Forwarded-Prefix
(Starlette/uvicorn only proxy_headers Host + Proto + For). The
IDP redirects back to /auth/callback instead of /hermes/auth/
callback → 404 in the user's browser.
3. Cookies were set with Path=/ which leaks them to other apps on
the same origin and won't be sent back on requests under the
prefix in the first place.
Fix threads the normalised prefix through every boundary:
* New hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/prefix.py — single source of truth
for X-Forwarded-Prefix parsing. web_server._normalise_prefix
becomes a re-export so the SPA mount, the gate, and the cookies
helper all agree.
* middleware._unauth_response builds login_url = f"{prefix}/login".
* routes._redirect_uri splices the prefix into the path component
of the IDP-bound URL (with full validation of the header).
* cookies.{set,clear}_{session,pkce}_cookie now take prefix="".
Path attribute switches to /hermes when set; cookie name switches
name variant (see below). Every caller passes the request's
normalised prefix.
Cookie hardening (Teknium's lesser-note #1 in the PR review): adopt
the __Host- / __Secure- cookie name prefixes per draft-west-cookie-
prefixes. The variant is selected from (use_https, prefix):
* Loopback HTTP → bare "hermes_session_at" (both prefixes require
Secure, incompatible with HTTP).
* HTTPS, direct deploy (Path=/) → "__Host-hermes_session_at".
Strongest spec: bound to exact origin, no Domain attribute, Secure
required.
* HTTPS, behind a proxy prefix (Path=/hermes) →
"__Secure-hermes_session_at". __Host- forbids Path != "/"; the
explicit Path=/hermes covers same-origin app isolation.
Setter and reader BOTH consult the prefix because the cookie *name*
changes — a reader that looked up the bare name when the setter wrote
__Secure- would never find the value. The reader falls back across
all three variants so a request whose shape changed mid-session (e.g.
post-deploy from no-prefix to /hermes) still picks up the existing
cookie until it expires.
Test coverage:
- tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_auth_prefix.py — new file. 11 tests
pinning:
• Location: /hermes/login on the gate's HTML redirect
• 401 envelope login_url carries the prefix
• Malformed X-Forwarded-Prefix is ignored (header-injection
defence; the script-tag value is normalised to empty string)
• _redirect_uri splices /hermes into the path (the property
that prevents the IDP-returns-to-404 failure)
• PKCE cookie uses Path=/hermes + __Secure- when proxied
• Session cookies use __Host- when direct, __Secure- when
proxied, bare on loopback HTTP
• End-to-end round trip with hand-managed PKCE cookie carriage
(TestClient can't simulate a Path=/hermes cookie automatically)
- tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_auth_cookies.py — rewritten to pin
each (use_https, prefix) shape produces its expected cookie name,
plus reader-side coverage that __Host- and __Secure- variants are
both recognised.
- Existing tests across middleware / 401-reauth / etc. updated to
match the new cookie names (substring contains instead of
startswith).
Mutation-tested: reverting _unauth_response to build the bare
"/login" URL trips exactly the two tests that pin the prefix
carriage, confirming the suite discriminates the regression.
The gate's _unauth_response set next=<path> on the /login redirect URL,
but nothing downstream read it: render_login_html ignored next=,
auth_login dropped it, and auth_callback read next= from its own query
string — which an IDP never sets on the callback URL (real IDPs only
echo back code+state). The _validate_post_login_target plumbing in the
callback was unreachable on the happy path, so users always landed on
"/" regardless of what they originally requested.
Worse: reading next= from the callback URL was a latent open-redirect
sink, since an attacker could craft /auth/callback?...&next=/admin and
have the server honour it post-auth.
Fix carries next= through the round trip on a server-controlled channel:
1. login_page reads request.query_params['next'] and passes it (post-
validation) to render_login_html.
2. render_login_html threads next= URL-encoded into each provider
button's href, with HTML-attribute escaping as defence in depth.
3. auth_login accepts ?next= as a query param, re-validates, and
appends it as a fourth segment (next=<urlquoted>) in the PKCE
cookie payload alongside provider/state/verifier.
4. auth_callback no longer accepts a next: str = "" query param. It
parses next= out of the PKCE cookie and validates that with the
same same-origin rules. Any attacker-supplied ?next= on the
callback URL is silently ignored — server-only carrier.
Test coverage adds three classes:
- TestAuthCallbackNext drives /login → /auth/login → IDP-bounce →
/auth/callback end-to-end without smuggling next= onto the callback
URL (which is what the previous tests did and why they didn't
catch the bug). Includes test_attacker_callback_next_param_is_ignored
to pin the security property that the URL value is never read.
- TestRenderLoginHtmlNext covers the rendering function at the
unit boundary so a regression that drops next_path is caught
without spinning up the full app.
- TestAuthLoginPkceCookieNext inspects the Set-Cookie header on
/auth/login responses so a regression in cookie encoding is caught
without driving the full round trip.
Mutation-tested: reverting auth_callback to read next= from the URL
trips 3 of 6 TestAuthCallbackNext tests (the safe-path and attacker-
hardening ones), confirming the suite discriminates between the cookie
read and the URL read.
When the OAuth gate is active, start_server runs uvicorn with
proxy_headers=True so the dashboard can honour X-Forwarded-Proto from
Fly's TLS terminator (cookies, redirect URI reconstruction). A side
effect: ws.client.host is rewritten to the X-Forwarded-For value, which
on Fly is the real internet client IP — never loopback. The loopback
peer guard in _ws_client_is_allowed then rejected every WS upgrade in
gated mode (4403 close) even after a successful OAuth round trip and
ticket consumption, silently breaking /api/pty, /api/ws, /api/pub, and
/api/events.
Fix: in gated mode, bypass the peer-IP check. The OAuth gate +
single-use ticket is the auth. The Host/Origin guard in
_ws_host_origin_is_allowed still runs and is what protects against
DNS-rebinding here, not the peer IP.
Loopback mode behaviour is unchanged: the legacy ?token= path is the
only auth there and we don't want LAN hosts guessing tokens.
Regression coverage: TestWsRequestIsAllowedGated pins all four
behaviours — non-loopback peer allowed in gated mode, non-loopback peer
rejected in loopback mode, loopback peer allowed in loopback mode, and
the Host/Origin guard still firing on a rebinding attempt with gated
mode + matching peer.
The argparse-setup plugin discovery path is gated on
_plugin_cli_discovery_needed(), which returns False for any built-in
subcommand including 'dashboard' (to save ~500ms startup on hot paths
like --tui). As a result, plugins/dashboard_auth/nous never registered
its DashboardAuthProvider, and start_server's fail-closed gate check
tripped for any non-loopback bind even when the Nous provider was
bundled and ready to run.
Call discover_plugins() explicitly in cmd_dashboard so the provider
registry is populated before the gate check runs. discover_plugins() is
idempotent (per its docstring), so this is safe to call regardless of
whether the argparse path already ran it.
The Nous OAuth provider plugin (plugins/dashboard_auth/nous) is bundled
and auto-loaded — same as before — but previously refused to register
unless BOTH HERMES_DASHBOARD_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID and HERMES_DASHBOARD_PORTAL_URL
were set, then the gate's fail-closed branch told the operator 'install
the default Nous provider'. That message is misleading: the provider IS
installed; it's just unconfigured. And the contract only really needs
the per-instance client_id — the portal URL is the same for everyone
in production.
Three changes:
1. plugins/dashboard_auth/nous/__init__.py:
- HERMES_DASHBOARD_PORTAL_URL is now optional and defaults to
'https://portal.nousresearch.com'. Override only for staging
(portal.rewbs.uk) or a custom deployment. Empty string also
falls back to the default so an empty Fly secret can't point
the dashboard at nowhere.
- Plugin exposes a module-level LAST_SKIP_REASON: str that the gate
reads when no providers register. Cleared on each register() call.
Skip reasons are human-readable and actionable
('HERMES_DASHBOARD_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID is not set. The Nous Portal
provisions this env var…').
2. plugins/dashboard_auth/nous/plugin.yaml:
- requires_env drops HERMES_DASHBOARD_PORTAL_URL; only the client_id
is mandatory. Description updated to reflect this.
3. hermes_cli/web_server.py:
- When the gate fail-closes for 'no providers', it now reads each
bundled plugin's LAST_SKIP_REASON and embeds them in the SystemExit
message. Operator sees the specific config fix needed:
Bundled providers reported these issues:
• nous: HERMES_DASHBOARD_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID is not set. …
instead of the prior generic 'Install the default Nous provider'.
Tests:
- TestPluginRegister rewritten to assert the new defaults +
LAST_SKIP_REASON contents (6 tests, +1 new for empty-string env).
- New gate test test_start_server_surfaces_nous_skip_reason_when_unconfigured.
- test_get_method_is_not_allowed widened to handle the SPA-shell 200
path explicitly — assertion now verifies no JSON ticket leaks
rather than asserting a specific status code (covers all four of
401/404/405/200).
Docs updated: web-dashboard.md's 'Default provider' section now shows
the env-var table with required/optional columns and embeds the
fail-closed error message verbatim so operators can match what they
see at the prompt.
Phase 7 surfaces the OAuth gate state to users.
web/src/components/AuthWidget.tsx (new):
Sidebar widget that fetches /api/auth/me on mount and renders a
compact 'Logged in as <user_id…> via <provider>' row with a logout
icon. Contract V1 (Nous Portal) emits no email/display_name claims,
so user_id is the display value (truncated to 14 chars + ellipsis);
display_name and email fallthroughs are forward-compat for OQ-C1.
Renders nothing on 401 from /api/auth/me — that's the signal the
gate isn't engaged (loopback mode), in which case the widget would
be confusing.
Logout POSTs /auth/logout (which clears cookies + redirects to
/login) then full-page-navigates to /login itself; the SPA's fetch
wrapper doesn't follow that redirect, so the navigation is explicit.
web/src/App.tsx: mounts <AuthWidget /> above <SidebarFooter />.
Component is self-hiding in loopback mode so there's no need for a
conditional mount.
web/src/lib/api.ts:
- getAuthMe() + logout() helpers
- AuthMeResponse type
- StatusResponse gets optional auth_required + auth_providers fields
so the existing StatusPage can render a gated/loopback badge.
hermes_cli/web_server.py: /api/status payload now includes
- auth_required: bool — whether app.state.auth_required is True
- auth_providers: list[str] — registered DashboardAuthProvider names
Lazy-imports list_providers so early-startup status calls don't
crash if the dashboard_auth module is still being set up.
tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_auth_status_endpoint.py: 3 new tests
covering the new status fields in both gated and loopback modes plus
a regression that no existing field got dropped from the payload.
The hermes status CLI is unchanged in this commit — that command
tracks model providers + OAuth credentials, not running-dashboard
state. The /api/status endpoint is the canonical place to query
dashboard auth-gate state, consumed by the React StatusPage already.
Contract V1 of nous-account-service PR #180 ships no refresh tokens, so
the original Phase 6 silent-refresh design is replaced with a thinner
'401 → redirect to /login' UX. The dashboard's gated middleware now
emits a structured envelope on any auth failure; the SPA's fetch
wrapper sees it and full-page-navigates the user through re-auth.
hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/cookies.py:
set_session_cookies(refresh_token='') SKIPS writing the
hermes_session_rt cookie. Forward-compat: a non-empty refresh_token
still emits the cookie unchanged, so a future Portal contract that
starts issuing RTs flips the persistence on with no other change.
clear_session_cookies still emits a Max-Age=0 deletion for the RT
cookie so stale cookies from earlier deployments get flushed on
logout / session expiry. Deprecation marker + rationale in
module docstring per the user's docstring-only deprecation pattern.
hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/middleware.py:
_unauth_response now builds a structured JSON envelope for API 401s:
{ error: 'session_expired' | 'unauthenticated',
detail: 'Unauthorized',
reason: <internal>,
login_url: '/login?next=<safe-path>' }
HTML redirects also carry next= so a user landing on /sessions
without a cookie bounces back to /sessions after re-auth.
_safe_next_target validates same-origin: drops protocol-relative
paths (//evil.com), absolute URLs, and any /login or /auth/* loop.
Dead cookies are cleared on the 401 path so the browser stops
replaying invalid tokens.
hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/routes.py:
/auth/callback accepts next= query param and validates via
_validate_post_login_target (same rules as the gate's
_safe_next_target — defence-in-depth because next= survived a full
IDP round trip and attacker-controlled state can re-enter via the
callback URL). Open-redirect attempts land at '/' instead.
web/src/lib/api.ts:
fetchJSON parses the 401 envelope and full-page-navigates to
body.login_url ONLY on the known session-expiry error codes.
Domain-level 401s (e.g. permission errors) bubble up as regular
errors. credentials: 'include' added so cookie auth works for all
fetches routed through this wrapper. sessionStorage.lastLocation is
preserved for future use by AuthWidget / hermes_status.
Test files marked with pytest.mark.xdist_group so the four files that
mutate web_server.app.state.auth_required serialize onto the same xdist
worker — eliminates 'works locally, fails in CI' app-state bleed.
20 new tests in test_dashboard_auth_401_reauth.py:
- set_session_cookies(refresh_token='') skips RT cookie
- clear_session_cookies still emits RT deletion
- 401 envelope shape (unauthenticated vs session_expired)
- dead cookie cleared on invalid-token 401
- login_url carries next= for deep paths
- login loop avoided when path is /login/auth/api-auth
- protocol-relative URL rejected
- _safe_next_target unit tests (accept same-origin, reject loops/abs)
- /auth/callback respects safe next= but rejects open redirects
2 pre-existing tests updated to accept the new /login?next=%2F shape.
Full dashboard-auth suite: 168 passed, 1 skipped (Phase 0 pre-existing).
Phase 5 task 5.2. Four WebSocket endpoints — /api/pty, /api/ws, /api/pub,
/api/events — previously authed with the same constant-time check against
`_SESSION_TOKEN`. Replaced with a single helper that branches on
`app.state.auth_required`:
Loopback / --insecure: legacy ?token=<_SESSION_TOKEN> path (unchanged).
Gated: ?ticket=<single-use> consumed against the
dashboard-auth ticket store.
Critical security property: gated mode UNCONDITIONALLY rejects the
?token= path. A leaked _SESSION_TOKEN value from a log line is not
replayable for WS access in gated deployments.
`_build_sidecar_url` now branches too: loopback uses the legacy token;
gated mode mints a server-internal ticket via mint_ticket() with
pseudo-user 'pty-sidecar' / provider 'server-internal' so audit logs can
distinguish PTY-internal sidecar tickets from browser tickets. PTY
children open /api/pub exactly once at startup so single-use suffices.
Ticket rejections audit-log as WS_TICKET_REJECTED with truncated reason
+ client IP + WS path. Operators debugging 'WS keeps closing' issues see
which endpoint and why.
17 new tests:
- POST /api/auth/ws-ticket: 200 with cookie, 401/302 without, distinct
per call, GET-not-allowed.
- _ws_auth_ok loopback: token accept/reject, missing-token reject,
ticket-param-ignored.
- _ws_auth_ok gated: ticket accept, single-use rejection, unknown reject,
legacy-token-rejected-in-gated assertion, audit-log emission.
- _build_sidecar_url: loopback uses token=, gated uses ticket=, no-bound
returns None.
Phase 5 task 5.1. Browsers cannot set Authorization on a WebSocket
upgrade, so in gated mode the SPA needs an alternative way to bind the
upgrade to its authenticated session.
hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/ws_tickets.py — in-memory single-use ticket
store with 30s TTL. Thread-safe (threading.Lock), token_urlsafe(32)
values, ticket value truncated to 8 chars in error messages for log
hygiene. Module-level state with _reset_for_tests() helper.
hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/routes.py — adds POST /api/auth/ws-ticket.
Auth-required (the gate middleware already attaches Session to
request.state.session). Returns {ticket, ttl_seconds}; emits
WS_TICKET_MINTED audit event with user_id + provider + ip.
hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/audit.py — adds WS_TICKET_REJECTED enum
value for the consume-side rejection event (wired into the WS
endpoints in task 5.2).
11 new tests covering round-trip, single-use, TTL boundary, unknown
ticket rejection, secret-hygiene truncation in error messages, and
concurrent mint+consume from 20 threads.
Phase 3, Task 3.5. Three changes to web_server.py:
1. start_server replaces the legacy SystemExit-refusing-to-bind guard
with: if app.state.auth_required and no providers registered, exit
with a clear message; otherwise log the gate-on banner. --insecure
keeps its existing behaviour.
2. uvicorn proxy_headers flag is computed from app.state.auth_required.
Loopback / --insecure keep it False (so _ws_client_is_allowed sees
the real peer for the loopback gate); gated mode flips it True so
X-Forwarded-Proto from Fly's TLS terminator is honoured for cookie
Secure-flag decisions in detect_https().
3. _serve_index no longer injects window.__HERMES_SESSION_TOKEN__ when
the gate is on — the SPA reads identity from /api/auth/me using
cookie auth instead. window.__HERMES_AUTH_REQUIRED__ flag lets the
SPA pick between ticket-auth (gated) and token-auth (loopback) for
/api/pty + /api/ws (Phase 5 will wire this in the React layer).
4 new behavioural tests; loopback regression harness still green.
Phase 3, Tasks 3.2 + 3.3 + 3.4. These three pieces are mutually
dependent so they land together.
middleware.py - gated_auth_middleware engages when app.state.auth_required
is True. Allowlists /login, /auth/*, /api/auth/providers, and static
asset paths; everything else demands a valid session_at cookie. Verifies
by trying every registered provider's verify_session in turn (multi-
provider stack); attaches verified Session to request.state.session.
Returns 401 JSON for /api/* and 302 -> /login for HTML. ProviderError
during verify -> 503.
routes.py - APIRouter with:
GET /login server-rendered HTML
GET /auth/login?provider=N 302 to IDP + PKCE cookie
GET /auth/callback?code,state completes login, sets session cookies
POST /auth/logout clears cookies + best-effort revoke
GET /api/auth/providers public bootstrap endpoint (503 if zero)
GET /api/auth/me verified session as JSON (auth-required)
login_page.py - Inline-CSS HTML template, no React, no JavaScript.
web_server.py - Mounted gated_auth_middleware between host_header and
auth_middleware (FastAPI runs middlewares in registration order: host
check -> cookie auth -> token auth). auth_middleware short-circuits
when auth_required so cookie auth is authoritative in gated mode.
Router is included before mount_spa so the catch-all doesn't swallow
/login or /auth/*.
17 new behavioural tests; loopback regression harness still green.
Phase 3, Task 3.1. Three cookies:
- hermes_session_at: OAuth access token (HttpOnly, TTL = token TTL)
- hermes_session_rt: OAuth refresh token (HttpOnly, 30d max-age)
- hermes_session_pkce: PKCE state + verifier + provider hint (10min)
All SameSite=Lax + Path=/. Secure flag is set ONLY when the request
scheme is https — uvicorn proxy_headers=True (enabled in gated mode at
Phase 3.5) rewrites scheme from X-Forwarded-Proto so Fly's TLS
terminator works.
Phase 1, Task 1.4. Records every auth event (login start/success/failure,
logout, refresh success/failure, revoke, session verify failure, WS
ticket mint) as one JSON object per line. Token-like kwargs (access_token,
refresh_token, code, code_verifier, state, ticket, cookie, Authorization)
are dropped before serialisation so the log never contains live secrets.
Write failures log at WARNING but never raise — auth flows must not fail
because the audit logger broke.
Phase 1, Task 1.3. Mirrors the existing register_image_gen_provider
pattern (plugins.py:531) — wrong-type or duplicate-name registrations
log at WARNING and silently return rather than raising, so a misbehaving
auth plugin cannot crash the host.
Deviation from plan: the plan's draft raised TypeError on non-provider
input; switched to silent-warn to match the established image_gen
convention. Test updated to match.
Phase 1, Task 1.1. New package hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/ contains:
base.py - DashboardAuthProvider ABC with 5 abstract methods
(start_login, complete_login, verify_session,
refresh_session, revoke_session), Session + LoginStart
frozen dataclasses, three exception types
(ProviderError / InvalidCodeError / RefreshExpiredError),
and assert_protocol_compliance() for plugins to call
in their own tests.
registry.py - Module-level register/get/list/clear with a lock.
Nothing reads the registry yet — Phase 2 adds the StubAuthProvider and
Phase 3 wires the gate middleware. The plugin hook lands in Task 1.3.
Phase 0, Task 0.3. start_server now computes should_require_auth(host,
allow_public) and records it on app.state.auth_required BEFORE the
existing legacy SystemExit guard fires. This gives middleware, the SPA
token-injection path, and WS endpoints a consistent read source for
'is the gate active'. The flag is set but no one reads it yet — Phase 3
registers the gate middleware.
Note: 4 pre-existing test failures in tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py
(PtyWebSocket) + test_update_hangup_protection.py reproduce on pristine
HEAD and are unrelated to this change (starlette TestClient WS regression).
Phase 0, Task 0.2. Single source of truth for 'is the auth gate active?'.
Reuses the existing _LOOPBACK_HOST_VALUES frozenset so this stays in sync
with the DNS-rebinding host-header check. RFC1918/CGNAT/link-local are
treated as public — exact threat model the gate exists for.
Alibaba's latest flagship Qwen model is released but not yet present in the
DashScope (alibaba) or Alibaba Coding Plan curated catalogs. Add it so it
shows up in the /model picker and setup wizard for those providers.
OpenCode Go routing for qwen3.7-max already landed via #32780 (commit 2fc77c53f).
OpenRouter + Nous catalog entries already landed via #32809 (commit ccd3d04fc).
This salvage picks up the remaining alibaba / alibaba-coding-plan entries from
#32806 — the AI Gateway entry is dropped because Vercel AI Gateway was removed
in #33067.
* remove Vercel AI Gateway provider and Vercel Sandbox terminal backend
Both Vercel-hosted integrations are removed end-to-end. Users on the AI
Gateway should switch to OpenRouter or one of the other aggregators
(Nous Portal, Kilo Code). Users on the Vercel Sandbox backend should
switch to Docker, Modal, Daytona, or SSH.
What's removed:
- `plugins/model-providers/ai-gateway/` provider plugin
- `hermes_cli/vercel_auth.py` Vercel-Sandbox auth helper
- `tools/environments/vercel_sandbox.py` terminal backend
- `ai-gateway` provider wiring across auth, doctor, setup, models,
config, status, providers, main, web_server, model_normalize, dump
- `vercel_sandbox` backend wiring across terminal_tool, file_tools,
code_execution_tool, file_operations, approval, skills_tool,
environments/local, credential_files, lazy_deps, prompt_builder,
cli, gateway/run
- `AI_GATEWAY_BASE_URL` constant, `_AI_GATEWAY_HEADERS` auxiliary-client
header set, run_agent base-URL header/reasoning special-cases
- `[vercel]` pyproject extra and `vercel`/`vercel-workers` from uv.lock
- env vars: `AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY`, `AI_GATEWAY_BASE_URL`, `VERCEL_TOKEN`,
`VERCEL_PROJECT_ID`, `VERCEL_TEAM_ID`, `VERCEL_OIDC_TOKEN`,
`TERMINAL_VERCEL_RUNTIME`
- Tests: deletes test_ai_gateway_models.py and
test_vercel_sandbox_environment.py; scrubs references across 23
surviving test files (no entire tests deleted unless they were
dedicated to AI Gateway / Sandbox)
- Docs: provider tables, env-var reference, setup guides, security
notes, tool config, terminal-backend tables — English plus zh-Hans
i18n parity
- `hermes-agent` skill: provider table entry and remote-backend list
What stays (intentional):
- `popular-web-designs/templates/vercel.md` — CSS design reference,
unrelated to Vercel-the-AI-product
- `x-vercel-id` in `stream_diag.py` headers — generic Vercel CDN
response header, useful diag signal on any Vercel-hosted endpoint
- `vercel-labs/agent-browser` URL in browser config — lightpanda
browser project, different OSS effort
- `userStories.json` historical contributor entry mentioning Vercel
Sandbox — archive, not active docs
Validation:
- 1153 tests in the 22 targeted files pass (`scripts/run_tests.sh`)
- Full repo `py_compile` clean
- Live import of every touched module + invariant check (no
`ai-gateway` in `PROVIDER_REGISTRY`, no `_AI_GATEWAY_HEADERS`, no
`vercel_sandbox` in `_REMOTE_TERMINAL_BACKENDS`)
* test: convert profile-count check from change-detector to invariant
The hardcoded "== 34" assertion broke when ai-gateway was removed.
Per AGENTS.md change-detector-test guidance, assert the relationship
(registry count >= number of plugin dirs) instead of a literal count.
Counts shift when providers are added/removed; that's expected.
qwen3.7-max on OpenCode Go rejects the OpenAI-compatible (oa-compat)
format with HTTP 401 but works correctly via the Anthropic Messages
endpoint (/v1/messages with x-api-key auth). Route it the same way
MiniMax models are routed: anthropic_messages api_mode.
Changes:
- hermes_cli/models.py: add qwen3.7-max routing + curated list
- hermes_cli/setup.py: add to setup wizard model list
- hermes_cli/auth.py: update provider comment
- tests: add assertions for qwen3.7-max api_mode routing
'hermes login' was removed (the command now just prints a deprecation
message and exits). The bundled hermes-agent SKILL.md, in-code error
messages, the tip rotation, the proxy adapters, and the docs site
still pointed agents and users at the dead command — so models loading
the skill kept running 'hermes login --provider openai-codex' and
getting a dead-end print.
Replacements use the canonical 'hermes auth add <provider>' surface
(or bare 'hermes auth' for the interactive manager).
Files:
- skills/autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent/SKILL.md (+ regenerated docs page)
- hermes_cli/tips.py (tip rotation)
- agent/google_oauth.py (gemini-cli error message)
- agent/conversation_loop.py (nous re-auth troubleshooting line)
- agent/credential_sources.py (docstring)
- hermes_cli/proxy/cli.py + hermes_cli/proxy/adapters/nous_portal.py (proxy auth hints)
- tests/hermes_cli/test_proxy.py (updated assertions)
- website/docs/reference/faq.md, website/docs/user-guide/features/subscription-proxy.md
- zh-Hans i18n mirrors for the above
'hermes logout' is still a live command and is left untouched.
The 'hermes login' stub in hermes_cli/auth.py:login_command() and
the cli-commands.md 'Deprecated' rows are intentionally kept as
the discoverable deprecation surface.
