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.
`hermes -c`/`--resume` (continue last session) resolved the globally
most-recently-used session, then cd'd into *its* recorded cwd. So running
`hermes -c` from repo A could land you in repo B's session — the session
you last touched anywhere, not the last one *here*.
Now `_resolve_last_session` scopes to the current workspace first: the git
repo root when CWD is inside a repo (so all sessions across its
subdirs/worktrees group together), else the CWD itself — matching the
`workspace_key` identity `hermes sessions list --workspace` already groups
on. It falls back to the unscoped global MRU when no session matches the
current workspace, preserving the old behaviour for fresh directories.
Adds `workspace_key` param to `SessionDB.search_sessions` and a
`_workspace_key_clause` SQL helper that mirrors `workspace_key()`: a row
matches when its `git_repo_root` equals the key, or (legacy rows without
git metadata) when its `cwd` is at or under it.
- use a grouped last_active join in search_sessions to avoid per-row correlated max lookups
- always close SessionDB in _resolve_last_session via finally and add regression coverage for search failure cleanup
- order session listing by computed last_active in SessionDB so callers get MRU rows directly
- keep _resolve_last_session as a single-row lookup and add regression coverage for >20 session sampling
