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.
Streamed responses no longer insert real newlines at terminal width —
logical lines are emitted whole and the terminal soft-wraps them, so
highlight-copy rejoins the full line (emulators only keep linebreaks
the app actually printed). This is the CLI equivalent of the TUI's
selection copy, which reads logical source lines from its screen
buffer. TTFT perception is preserved by mirroring the unfinished
line's tail into the spinner status text instead of chunk-printing.
/copy now prefers OSC 52 when running over SSH (SSH_CONNECTION /
SSH_TTY / SSH_CLIENT) — native tools there write the REMOTE clipboard,
which is never what the user wants. The CLI's OSC 52 writer also gains
tmux/screen DCS passthrough wrapping, mirroring the TUI's
wrapForMultiplexer. Fixes#31528 for the CLI surface.
Sabotage-verified: restoring the old chunk emitter fails 3 of the new
tests (hard-wrap detection, spinner mirror, unbreakable-run split).
Streamed response text carried a 4-space _STREAM_PAD indent and the
final-response Rich Panel used padding=(1, 4), so every line selected
out of the terminal came with leading whitespace. Both now render
flush-left (pad empty, panel padding=(1, 0)); the table-realignment
width budgets were widened to match.
/copy now writes the ORIGINAL message text through native clipboard
tools (pbcopy / PowerShell Set-Clipboard via base64 / wl-copy / xclip /
xsel — same fallback chain as the TUI's writeClipboardText), falling
back to OSC 52 only when no native backend succeeds. This is the
TUI-equivalent answer to soft-wrap mangling: the clipboard gets the raw
text, not the rendered layout.
