* 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.
The Kimi K2 branch added in the prior commit only emitted extra_body.thinking
and dropped reasoning_effort entirely. KimiProfile (api.moonshot.ai/v1) sends
both fields, and OpenCode Go proxies to the same Moonshot backend. Mirror that
shape on the Go path so /reasoning effort actually reaches Kimi.
- low/medium/high pass through verbatim
- xhigh/max clamp to high (Moonshot's max supported value)
- minimal / unknown effort → omit reasoning_effort, keep thinking on
- disabled / no config → unchanged
- DeepSeek branch unchanged
Six days after #23937 (608 fixes) the codebase had accumulated 241 new
PLR6201 violations. Same mechanical `x in (...)` → `x in {...}` fix,
same zero-risk profile: set lookup is O(1) vs O(n) for tuple and the
two are semantically equivalent for hashable scalar membership tests.
All 241 instances fixed via `ruff check --select PLR6201 --fix
--unsafe-fixes`, zero remaining. Every changed value is a hashable
scalar (str/int/None/enum/signal); no risk of unhashable runtime
errors. No behavior change.
Test plan:
- 119 files changed, +244/-244 (net zero) — exactly one-line edits
- `ruff check` clean afterward
- Compile checks pass on the largest touched files (cli.py, run_agent.py,
gateway/run.py, gateway/platforms/discord.py, model_tools.py)
- Subset broad test run on tests/gateway/ tests/hermes_cli/ tests/agent/
tests/tools/: 18187 passed, 59 pre-existing failures (verified against
origin/main with the same shape — identical failure count, identical
category — all xdist test-order flakes unrelated to this change)
Follows the same template as PR #23937 ([tracker: #23972](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/23972)).
Closes#26924 (and supersedes #26926) in spirit.
DeepSeek was missing `default_aux_model` on its `ProviderProfile`, so
`_get_aux_model_for_provider("deepseek")` returned an empty string and
the compression / vision / session-search paths emitted
"No auxiliary LLM provider configured -- context compression will
drop middle turns without a summary."
on every DeepSeek session, even when the user had perfectly working
DeepSeek credentials.
Fix lands at the profile layer rather than the legacy
`_API_KEY_PROVIDER_AUX_MODELS_FALLBACK` dict the original PR targeted.
Every modern provider (gemini, zai, minimax, anthropic, kimi-coding,
stepfun, ollama-cloud, gmi, novita, kilocode, ai-gateway, opencode-zen)
sets `default_aux_model` on its `ProviderProfile`; the fallback dict
only exists for providers that predate the profiles system.
Tests added under `tests/plugins/model_providers/test_deepseek_profile.py`:
- `test_profile_advertises_deepseek_chat` -- pins the profile attribute
- `test_consumer_api_returns_deepseek_chat` -- pins the consumer API behavior
- `test_consumer_api_returns_non_empty` -- regression guard for the
symptom in the issue
Original diagnosis and aux-model choice from @kriscolab in PR #26926;
moved one layer up.

The cherry-picked PR #15251 from @tw2818 correctly identified the
DeepSeek 400 root cause but placed the fix in the legacy fallback path
of `build_kwargs`, which DeepSeek never reaches — DeepSeek has a
registered ProviderProfile and goes through `_build_kwargs_from_profile`
instead. The legacy-path block was therefore dead code.
This commit pivots the fix to where it actually fires:
- New `DeepSeekProfile` in `plugins/model-providers/deepseek/__init__.py`
overrides `build_api_kwargs_extras` to emit DeepSeek's expected wire
format (mirrors `KimiProfile`):
{"reasoning_effort": "<low|medium|high|max>",
"extra_body": {"thinking": {"type": "enabled" | "disabled"}}}
- Model gating: only `deepseek-v4-*` and `deepseek-reasoner` emit
thinking control. `deepseek-chat` (V3) is untouched — current behavior.
- Effort mapping: low/medium/high passthrough, xhigh/max → max, unset →
omitted (DeepSeek server applies its own default).
- Revert the legacy-path additions from PR #15251 — they were dead code,
and the `_copy_reasoning_content_for_api` strip block specifically
would have nullified the existing reasoning_content padding machinery
(`_needs_deepseek_tool_reasoning` → space-pad on replay) that the
active provider already relies on for replay correctness.
- Unit tests pin the wire-shape contract and the model gating rules
(26 tests, all passing). Existing transport + provider profile suites
(321 tests) continue to pass.

Add NovitaAI as a first-class provider with dedicated model selection
flow, live pricing, and authoritative context length resolution.
- Register provider in PROVIDER_REGISTRY, HERMES_OVERLAYS, and all
alias/label maps (ID: novita, aliases: novita-ai, novitaai)
- Add dedicated _model_flow_novita() with 3-tier model list fallback:
Novita API → models.dev → static curated list
- Fetch live pricing from /v1/models with correct unit conversion
(input_token_price_per_m is 0.0001 USD per Mtok)
- Add Novita-specific context length resolution (step 4b) in
get_model_context_length(), prioritized over models.dev/OpenRouter
- Register api.novita.ai in _URL_TO_PROVIDER to prevent early return
from the custom-endpoint code path
- Add models.dev mapping (novita → novita-ai)
- Add default auxiliary model (deepseek/deepseek-v3-0324)
- Add NOVITA_API_KEY to test isolation (conftest.py)
- Update docs: providers page, env vars reference, CLI reference,
.env.example, README, and landing page
* feat(nous): unified client=hermes-client-v<version> tag on every Portal request
Every Hermes request to Nous Portal now carries the same
client=hermes-client-v<__version__> tag (e.g. client=hermes-client-v0.13.0
on this release), sourced live from hermes_cli.__version__. The release
script's regex bump auto-aligns it on every release.
Centralized in agent/portal_tags.py and wired into all four call sites:
- NousProfile.build_extra_body (main agent loop, every chat completion)
- auxiliary_client.NOUS_EXTRA_BODY + _build_call_kwargs (aux client)
- run_agent.py compression-summary fallback path
- tools/web_tools.py web_extract fallback
Replaces the client=aux marker added in #24194 with the unified version
tag. Tests assert against the helper output (invariant) rather than the
literal string, so they don't need updating on every release.
* feat(nous): cover /goal judge and kanban specify aux paths
Two aux-using surfaces bypassed call_llm by invoking
client.chat.completions.create() directly without extra_body, so they
were missing the unified Portal client tag:
- hermes_cli/goals.py — /goal standing-goal judge
- hermes_cli/kanban_specify.py — kanban triage specifier
Both now pass extra_body=get_auxiliary_extra_body() or None so they
inherit the version tag when the aux client points at Nous Portal, and
emit nothing otherwise (no tag leak to OpenRouter/Anthropic auxes).
Xiaomi MiMo's /v1/models endpoint returns 401 even with a valid API key,
causing hermes doctor to falsely report 'invalid API key'.
Add a `supports_health_check` field to ProviderProfile (default True).
Providers whose /models endpoint doesn't support auth verification can
set it to False. The doctor's dynamic provider discovery now reads this
field instead of hardcoding True.
The xiaomi provider plugin sets supports_health_check=False.
Pick openrouter/pareto-code as your model and OpenRouter auto-routes each
request to the cheapest model meeting your coding-quality bar (ranked by
Artificial Analysis). The new openrouter.min_coding_score config key (0.0-1.0,
default 0.65) tunes the floor.
- hermes_cli/models.py: add openrouter/pareto-code to OPENROUTER_MODELS so
it shows up in the picker with a description
- hermes_cli/config.py: add openrouter.min_coding_score (default 0.65 — lands
on a mid-tier coder on the current Pareto frontier)
- plugins/model-providers/openrouter: emit extra_body.plugins =
[{id: pareto-router, min_coding_score: X}] when model is openrouter/pareto-code
AND the score is a valid float in [0.0, 1.0]
- agent/transports/chat_completions.py: same emission on the legacy flag
path (when no provider profile is loaded)
- run_agent.py: openrouter_min_coding_score kwarg + storage; plumbed into
both build_kwargs() invocations and the context-summary extra_body path
- cli.py: read openrouter.min_coding_score once at init, validate float in
[0,1], pass to AIAgent constructions (CLI + background-task paths)
- cron/scheduler.py, batch_runner.py, tools/delegate_tool.py,
tui_gateway/server.py: propagate the kwarg (mirrors providers_order
plumbing — subagents inherit, cron/batch read from config)
- tests: profile-level + transport-level coverage of the model gating,
unset/empty/out-of-range handling, and the legacy flag path
- docs: new 'OpenRouter Pareto Code Router' section in providers.md
Verified end-to-end against api.openrouter.ai: at score=0.65 we land on a
mid-tier coder, at omission we get the strongest. Score is silently dropped
on any model other than openrouter/pareto-code, so it's safe to leave set.
Pass session_id through to provider profile build_api_kwargs_extras so
the OpenRouter profile can attach an xAI cache-affinity header
(x-grok-conv-id: <session-id>) for x-ai/grok-* models. xAI prompt
cache requires server affinity via this header — without it the cache
is poisoned and Grok prompt-cache hit rates drop dramatically on
multi-turn sessions.
Carve-out of #22708 by Ninso112. The original PR bundled a /diff
slash command, a zsh completion fix (already on main via #22802),
and holographic memory null-guards. This salvage keeps just the
Grok header work — small, targeted, and well-tested. Other
contributors and changes preserved for separate review.
Closes#22705.
The previous revision of this PR added six GMI-specific branches
(`elif base_url_host_matches(..., 'api.gmi-serving.com')`) across
run_agent.py and agent/auxiliary_client.py, plus a _HERMES_UA_HEADERS
constant in auxiliary_client.py.
ProviderProfile already has a `default_headers: dict[str, str]` field
commented as 'Client-level quirks (set once at client construction)'.
Other plugins (ai-gateway, kimi-coding) already use it. Two of the four
auxiliary_client sites we previously patched already had a generic
`else: profile.default_headers` fallback that picked it up (so did
both run_agent sites).
This revision:
* Sets `default_headers={'User-Agent': 'HermesAgent/<ver>'}` on the
GMI profile in plugins/model-providers/gmi/__init__.py.
* Reverts all six GMI-specific branches in run_agent.py and
auxiliary_client.py.
* Adds the generic profile-fallback `else` block to the two
auxiliary_client sites (`_to_async_client`, `resolve_provider_client`)
that didn't have it yet. This benefits every provider whose profile
declares default_headers, not just GMI — e.g. Vercel AI Gateway's
HTTP-Referer/X-Title now flow through the async client path too.
* Replaces the GMI-specific URL-branch tests with a profile-level
assertion and keeps the run_agent integration test (with
`provider='gmi'` so the fallback picks up the profile).
Net diff vs main: +82/-0 across 5 files, touching only the GMI plugin,
two generic fallback blocks in auxiliary_client.py, AUTHOR_MAP, and
tests. No core files change.
Based on #20907 by @isaachuangGMICLOUD.
Every provider profile is now a self-contained plugin under
plugins/model-providers/<name>/, mirroring the plugins/platforms/
pattern established for IRC and Teams. The ProviderProfile ABC
stays in providers/; the per-provider profile data moves out.
- plugins/model-providers/<name>/__init__.py calls register_provider()
- plugins/model-providers/<name>/plugin.yaml declares kind: model-provider
- providers/__init__.py._discover_providers() lazily scans bundled plugins
then $HERMES_HOME/plugins/model-providers/<name>/ (user override path)
- User plugins with the same name override bundled ones (last-writer-wins
in register_provider)
- Legacy providers/<name>.py layout still supported for back-compat with
out-of-tree editable installs
- Hermes PluginManager: new kind=model-provider; skipped like memory
plugins (providers/ discovery owns them); standalone plugins with
register_provider+ProviderProfile in their __init__.py auto-coerce to
this kind (same heuristic as memory providers)
- skip_names extended to include 'model-providers' so the general
PluginManager doesn't double-scan the category
- 4 new tests in tests/providers/test_plugin_discovery.py covering
bundled discovery, user override, and general-loader isolation
- Docs updated: website/docs/developer-guide/adding-providers.md,
provider-runtime.md, providers/README.md, plugins/model-providers/README.md
No API break: auth.py / config.py / doctor.py / models.py / runtime_provider.py /
model_metadata.py / auxiliary_client.py / chat_completions.py / run_agent.py
all still consume providers via get_provider_profile() / list_providers() —
they just now see plugin-discovered entries instead of pkgutil-iterated ones.
Third parties can now drop a single directory into
~/.hermes/plugins/model-providers/<name>/ to add or override an inference
provider without touching the repo.
