Second, deeper pass over tools/gateway/hermes_cli plus first pass over
the trees wave 1 missed (acp, acp_adapter, skills, computer_use, docker,
dashboard, conformance, monitoring, secret_sources, hermes_state,
providers). Same rubric as wave 1 (AGENTS.md test policy); security,
alternation/caching invariants, issue-number regressions, and E2E kept.
Real test-quality fixes found and rooted out along the way:
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py made real auxiliary-LLM HTTPS calls
(DEFAULT_CONFIG smart-approval leaked in) — pinned approval
mode=manual via autouse fixture: 17.4s → 0.4s.
- test_model_switch_custom_providers.py / test_user_providers_model_switch.py
silently probed live provider catalogs (~2s/test) — stubbed
cached_provider_model_ids/provider_model_ids/fetch_api_models.
- test_telegram_noise_filter.py: 15-platform copy-paste matrix over
shared gateway.run logic → 3 representative platforms (55s → 3.9s).
- test_gateway_shutdown.py: stop()'s 5s interrupt-deadline loop spun on
MagicMock agents — interrupt.side_effect now clears _running_agents
(22s → 1.0s).
- test_gateway_inactivity_timeout.py poll-harness timings shrunk 3-5x
(24s → 1.1s); test_mcp_stability.py backoff/SIGTERM-grace sleeps
patched (15.4s → 2.5s); test_async_delegation.py negative-drain wait
5s → 0.5s.
- test_telegram_init_deadline.py: loop-block margin restored to 1.0s
with rationale comment — the watchdog-dump assertion needs the loop
blocked well past deadline+grace under parallel load (flaked once in
the 40-worker verification run at a 0.2s margin).
Verification: full hermetic suite via scripts/run_tests.sh —
2,438 files, 21,718 tests passed, 0 failed, 293.9s wall.
Suite totals vs original baseline: 46,820 → 19,757 test functions
(−57.8%), wall 583.5s → 293.9s (−50%), subprocess CPU 13,564s → 11,623s.
* refactor(bootstrap): consolidate ACP browser bootstrap into install.{sh,ps1}
Delete 687 lines of duplicated browser bootstrap code from
acp_adapter/bootstrap/. All browser installation now routes through
dep_ensure -> install.{sh,ps1} --ensure, using agent-browser install
for Chromium. install.sh gains ensure_browser() with macOS app-bundle
detection and per-distro guidance.
Tracking: #27826
* fix(install.sh): add --ignore-scripts to npm install for camofox
@askjo/camofox-browser has a dependency (impit) whose postinstall
script runs `npx only-allow pnpm`, which fails under npm. Adding
--ignore-scripts avoids the spurious failure without affecting
functionality.
Tracking: #27826
* fix: add explicit return in ensure_browser, narrow exception in entry.py
ensure_browser() now returns 0 explicitly on all success paths.
_run_setup_browser() catches OSError instead of broad Exception,
letting ImportError propagate as a real packaging bug.
The Zed ACP Registry path (uvx --from 'hermes-agent[acp]==X' hermes-acp)
gets a Python-only install. Browser tools depend on the agent-browser npm
package + Chromium, neither of which are in the wheel. Without an
explicit bootstrap, registry users have no path to working browser tools.
Ship a bundled, idempotent bootstrap script (Linux/macOS bash + Windows
PowerShell) inside acp_adapter/bootstrap/ as wheel package-data. New
entry points:
hermes acp --setup-browser # interactive; prompts before Chromium download
hermes acp --setup-browser --yes # non-interactive
hermes-acp --setup-browser
The terminal-auth flow (hermes acp --setup) also offers the browser
bootstrap as a follow-up after model selection, so first-run registry
users get the option without knowing the flag exists.
Key design choices:
- npm install -g --prefix $NODE_PREFIX so we never need sudo. System Node
on PATH is respected; only the install target is redirected to the
user-writable Hermes-managed Node prefix.
- tools/browser_tool.py::_browser_candidate_path_dirs() already walks
$HERMES_HOME/node/bin, so installed binaries are discovered with no
agent-side code change.
- System Chrome/Chromium detection short-circuits the ~400 MB Playwright
download when a suitable browser already exists.
- Bash + PowerShell live as ONE copy each under acp_adapter/bootstrap/.
Not duplicated under scripts/. install.sh and install.ps1 keep their
inline browser blocks for the source-checkout path.
E2E validated end-to-end:
bash bootstrap_browser_tools.sh --skip-chromium
→ installs agent-browser into ~/.hermes/node/bin/
tools.browser_tool._find_agent_browser()
→ returns the installed path
check_browser_requirements()
→ returns True (browser tools register)
Tests:
- tests/acp/test_entry.py: 11 tests covering --setup-browser dispatch
(linux + windows + --yes forwarding + failure propagation), the
terminal-auth follow-up prompt path, and a package-data wheel-shipping
assertion that catches any future pyproject.toml regression.
Docs: website/docs/user-guide/features/acp.md gains a 'Browser tools
(optional)' subsection with the two-line install + what-it-does.
