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.
Added tests/gateway/test_stream_consumer_draft.py with 11 tests
covering:
- Transport selection: auto+dm-supported -> draft; auto+group -> edit;
explicit edit; explicit draft on unsupported adapter -> edit;
MagicMock adapter -> edit (back-compat for the existing test suite).
- Happy path: DM stream animates draft frames with a single shared
draft_id, then finalizes via a regular adapter.send.
- Group fallback: drafts entirely skipped in non-DM chats.
- Failure fallback: send_draft returning success=False disables drafts
for the rest of the response.
- Draft_id lifecycle: consecutive responses use distinct ids; tool
boundaries bump the id so post-tool text animates fresh below the
tool-progress bubble (the openclaw #32535 leak guard).
- _already_sent contract: drafts must NOT set the flag so the gateway's
fallback final-send still fires (drafts have no message_id).
Updated website/docs/user-guide/messaging/telegram.md with a
'Streaming transport' section explaining auto|draft|edit|off, the
DM-only constraint, and the per-response fallback behaviour.
