- Move U+FFFC placeholder detection before _record_last_inbound() so the
placeholder message id is not recorded as the reaction target
- Cancel pending U+FFFC tasks in disconnect() to prevent task leaks
- Check mimeType audio/x-caf in addition to filename for CAF→VOICE promotion,
fixing unnamed attachments that default to '(unnamed)'
- Add 7 Photon adapter tests: CAF named/unnamed promotion, U+FFFC no-dispatch,
U+FFFC not recorded as last inbound, U+FFFC+attachment cancel, timeout fire,
disconnect cleanup
- Add 6 transcription tests: ffmpeg conversion, afconvert fallback, all-fail,
CAF→WAV before Groq, conversion failure error, local provider skip
* fix(photon): preserve text in mixed iMessage attachments
When an iMessage bubble carried both text and an attachment, spectrum-ts'
inbound mapper returned only buildAttachmentMessage(...), dropping the user's
typed text before Hermes could see it. The Photon adapter then had no 'group'
content path, so the text was lost entirely.
- adapter.py: handle a new 'group' content type that flattens text + attachment
items, preserving the typed text alongside cached media (extracted shared
_normalize_binary_payload helper).
- sidecar: emit 'group' content in normalizeContent, and ship
patch-spectrum-mixed-attachments.mjs which patches spectrum-ts' pinned mapper
(at npm postinstall AND at sidecar startup, so existing installs self-heal).
Windows robustness fixes on top of the original PR:
- The patcher's CLI guard used 'import.meta.url === file://${argv[1]}', which
never matches on Windows (file:/// + drive letter) — it silently no-opped.
Switched to pathToFileURL(argv[1]).href.
- The patcher matched \n-joined strings, so a CRLF checkout (Windows git
autocrlf) defeated every replacement. It now normalizes CRLF->LF for matching
and restores the original EOL style on write.

* fix(photon): override transitive CVEs in the sidecar deps
`npm audit` flagged 7 high-severity transitive CVEs (protobufjs code injection
GHSA-66ff-xgx4-vchm + outdated @opentelemetry OTLP exporters) pulled in via
spectrum-ts -> @photon-ai/otel. npm's suggested fix downgrades spectrum-ts to a
version that targets the decommissioned spectrum host, so instead pin patched
versions via `overrides` (protobufjs 8.6.1, @opentelemetry/* 0.218.0) without
touching spectrum-ts. `npm audit` -> 0; spectrum-ts + provider still import.
* fix(photon): harden the sidecar bridge + bound the dedup cache
- constant-time sidecar control-token comparison (was `!==`, timing-attackable).
- cap the control-channel request body (2 MiB) so a compromised local peer can't
OOM the sidecar.
- wrap the inbound gRPC stream consumer in a re-subscribe loop with capped
exponential backoff + jitter — if the async iterator throws/ends it would
otherwise stop inbound forever (the adapter dedupes any replay).
- add an unhandledRejection handler so a stray rejection logs instead of killing
the process.
- dedup cache (adapter) was a true bounded LRU only for expired entries; a burst
of unique ids within the window grew it without limit. Evict oldest at the cap.

Extend the sidecar and Python adapter to handle `voice` content
alongside `attachment`. Voice notes are inlined as base64 (same
size-cap logic), surfaced as `MessageType.VOICE`, and include an
optional `duration` field in fallback markers when bytes are
unavailable.
Make Photon iMessage a first-class persistent-connection channel like
Discord/Slack, using the spectrum-ts gRPC stream for both directions.
- Inbound: the sidecar forwards the SDK's app.messages gRPC stream to the
adapter over a loopback GET /inbound (NDJSON) instead of webhooks. Drops
the aiohttp webhook server, HMAC signature verification, public URL, and
PHOTON_WEBHOOK_* config; adapter reconnects with backoff.
- Management plane: device login uses client_id=photon-cli against the
single dashboard host (Bearer), matching the official photon-hq/cli;
find-or-create "Hermes Agent" project, enable Spectrum, rotate secret,
register user (with phone dedup), surface the assigned iMessage line.
- SDK projectId is the project's spectrumProjectId, not the dashboard id;
runtime creds persist to ~/.hermes/.env like every other channel.
- CLI: 6-step setup, webhook subcommands removed.
- Tests/docs updated for the gRPC flow; sidecar pins spectrum-ts ^1.17.1.

The advisory lint-diff bot flagged 17 new ty diagnostics. 6 are
`unresolved-import` for httpx/aiohttp/pytest, which is structural
(CI lint env has no project deps) and matches every other platform
plugin's noise floor. The remaining 11 are real and fixable:
- `Optional[callable]` → `Optional[Callable[..., None]]` (auth.py)
invalid-type-form on `callable` as a type expression. Added the
proper `typing.Callable` import. Two sites: on_pending in
poll_for_token, on_user_code in login_device_flow.
- Dropped three unused `# type: ignore` comments on
hermes_constants / hermes_cli.config imports — ty can resolve
those modules fine, the comments were dead.
- _supervise_sidecar(proc) widened `proc.stdout` from
`IO[Any] | None` to a narrowed local after an early `is None`
guard. Defensive against subprocesses launched without
stdout=PIPE.
- cli.py _cmd_setup: dropped the `has_existing_project = bool(...)`
intermediate, did the narrowing inline with `if existing_id and
existing_secret:` so ty can see project_id/project_secret are
non-None when create_user is called.
- test_inbound.py: replaced three `adapter.handle_message =
fake_handle # type: ignore[assignment]` with
`monkeypatch.setattr(adapter, 'handle_message', fake_handle)`.
Same behavior, no type-ignore, and the monkeypatch reverts
cleanly between tests.
Validation:
ty check plugins/platforms/photon/ tests/plugins/platforms/photon/
→ All checks passed!
tests/plugins/platforms/photon/ → 26/26 pass
py_compile clean
Windows footgun checker → 0 footguns
First-class iMessage support via Photon's managed Spectrum platform.
Targeted as a successor to the BlueBubbles adapter — Photon allocates
the iMessage line, handles delivery, and abuse-prevention so users
don't have to run their own Mac relay. Free tier uses Photon's shared
line pool.
Architecture:
- Inbound: signed JSON webhooks (X-Spectrum-Signature, HMAC-SHA256)
delivered to a local aiohttp listener. Dedupes on message.id,
rejects deliveries with >5min timestamp drift.
- Outbound: small supervised Node sidecar that runs the spectrum-ts
SDK. Photon does not currently expose a public HTTP send-message
endpoint; the sidecar is the only way to call Space.send() today.
When Photon ships an HTTP send endpoint we collapse the sidecar
into _sidecar_send and drop the Node dep — every other layer of
the plugin stays the same.
- Setup: 'hermes photon login' runs the RFC 8628 device-code flow;
'hermes photon setup' creates a Spectrum-enabled project, creates
a shared user (free tier), installs the sidecar's npm deps.
- Webhook management: 'hermes photon webhook register|list|delete'.
- Credentials persisted under credential_pool.photon /
credential_pool.photon_project in ~/.hermes/auth.json.
Plugin path (not built-in) — per current policy (May 2026), all new
platforms ship under plugins/platforms/. Registers itself via
ctx.register_platform() + ctx.register_cli_command(), zero edits to
core gateway code.
Tests cover:
- HMAC-SHA256 signature verification (happy path, tampered body,
wrong secret, drift, missing v0 prefix, empty inputs, non-integer
timestamp)
- Inbound dispatch for text DMs, group ids (any;+;...), and
attachment metadata markers
- Deduplication window
- check_requirements gating when Node is absent
- Device-code flow: request, header-based token return,
body-fallback token return, access_denied propagation
- Project/user/webhook API clients with mocked httpx
Known limitations (current Photon API):
- Attachments are metadata only — no download URL yet
- Outbound attachment send not wired (sidecar can add easily)
- Reactions / message effects not exposed yet
