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.

* Remove login for drained endpoints flow and clean the code
* chore: drop unrelated credits changes from this PR
* Remove extra comments that were not really necessary
Task 2.0a of the safe-shutdown drain-coordination plan. Widens the dashboard
auth framework GENERICALLY to support non-interactive (service-to-service)
bearer-token auth, mirroring the existing supports_password precedent. This is
a reusable capability — any future machine-credential provider plugs in without
core changes (decisions.md Q-C). The drain bearer-secret plugin (Task 2.0b) is
the first consumer, not the definition.
- base.py: add TokenPrincipal dataclass (the token analog of Session) +
supports_token capability flag + verify_token() on the ABC (default raises
NotImplementedError so a misconfigured provider fails loud). Contract mirrors
verify_session stacking: return None for unrecognised tokens (never raise),
raise ProviderError only on a genuine backing-store outage.
- registry.py: list_token_providers() — the supports_token subset, in
registration order. Empty when none registered (token routes fail closed).
- token_auth.py (new): route-agnostic seam. Routes opt in via
register_token_route(exact path); token_auth_middleware owns the auth
decision for those routes only — authenticate via stacked providers, attach
request.state.token_principal + token_authenticated, pass through. 401 on
missing/unrecognised token, 503 when a provider was unreachable, untouched
passthrough for non-token routes. Fails closed (never open).
- web_server.py: install the seam OUTERMOST (registered last → runs first).
Both downstream gates (legacy auth_middleware + gated_auth_middleware) honour
request.state.token_authenticated and skip enforcement, so a token-authed
service request is never bounced to /login.
- audit.py: TOKEN_AUTH_SUCCESS / TOKEN_AUTH_FAILURE events.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_token_auth.py — ABC flag default,
verify_token NotImplementedError, registry filter, bearer extraction
(case-insensitive scheme, malformed/non-bearer → ""), provider stacking
(first-match-wins, unreachable-remembered, unreachable-then-valid, buggy
provider doesn't crash the gate), and the seam's passthrough/401/503/
fail-closed behaviour. 29 new tests; full dashboard-auth suite 169 passed.
Intentionally deferred:
- The concrete shared-bearer-secret provider plugin — Task 2.0b.
- The begin/cancel-drain endpoint that registers itself as a token route —
Task 2.1.
Build status: dashboard-auth + plugin-hook suites green.
