- set_config_value hard-rejects a managed config key (D2) and names the
source, exiting non-zero.
- save_env_value / remove_env_value refuse a managed env key.
- save_config strips managed leaves from a bulk write (mechanical safety net)
with a warning, so the unmanaged remainder still persists.
New _strip_dotted_keys helper drives the bulk-save pruning. All guards are
distinct from and layered after the existing is_managed() package-manager
write-lock.
load_hermes_dotenv now loads the managed-scope .env after user/project .env
and external secret sources, with override=True, so managed env values beat
the user .env and any pre-existing shell export. Reuses the existing dotenv
fallback + credential-sanitization path. Fail-open: no managed dir/.env is a
no-op and any error is swallowed so managed scope never blocks startup.
_load_config_impl now deep-merges the managed config.yaml on top of the
expanded user config so managed leaves win while sibling keys stay
user-controlled (leaf-level merge, D3). Managed values are expanded against
the process env only, never user-defined ${VAR}, so a user can't shadow a
managed literal. The managed file's (mtime,size) is folded into the load
cache key so editing it invalidates the cache. This inverts the usual
env-over-config precedence for pinned keys by design (see design doc §4.1).
New hermes_cli/managed_scope.py resolves a system-level managed directory
(HERMES_MANAGED_DIR override > /etc/hermes), parses managed config.yaml/.env
with fail-open semantics, and exposes is_key_managed/is_env_managed helpers.
The system default is ignored under pytest and HERMES_MANAGED_DIR is added to
the conftest env scrub so a real managed scope can't leak into the suite.
Not wired into the load paths yet (Phases 2-3).
release_stale_claims and detect_stale_running call _terminate_reclaimed_worker
and then release the task claim unconditionally, even when the termination did
not actually kill the worker. _terminate_reclaimed_worker already reports this
via its "terminated" flag, but the callers ignore it.
When a worker is parked in uninterruptible (D) state — for example throttled by
a cgroup memory.high limit — a pending SIGTERM/SIGKILL cannot be delivered until
the throttle lifts, so the kill is a no-op. The dispatcher then frees the claim
and spawns a fresh worker beside the still-alive one. Repeated every dispatch
tick this accumulates duplicate workers without bound, deepening the memory
pressure that caused the throttle in the first place — a self-reinforcing
runaway.
Fix: gate both automatic reclaim paths on _worker_survived_termination(). When
we attempted to kill our own host-local worker and it is still alive, defer the
reclaim (_defer_reclaim_for_live_worker extends the claim a short grace and
emits a reclaim_deferred event) instead of releasing. This guarantees at most
one live worker per task and is self-correcting: not spawning a duplicate is
what relieves the pressure so the pending signal lands and the worker dies, and
the next tick reclaims cleanly. Non-host-local claims and the operator-driven
reclaim_task() path keep their existing force-release behaviour.
Related: #41448 (concurrent dispatchers amplify this by doubling reclaim
frequency); #42858 (kill the worker rather than orphan it on archive).
Tests: defer-when-worker-survives, reclaim-when-killed,
release-when-not-host-local, and the detect_stale_running path.
Two robustness gaps from community review (#44919):
1. Windows dead-path: replaced bespoke fcntl.flock with gateway.status
_try_acquire_file_lock / _release_file_lock — already cross-platform
(msvcrt on Windows, fcntl on POSIX). Added _release_singleton_lock
helper.
2. Lock fd never released: stored handle is now released explicitly in
both exit paths — CancelledError handler and normal while-loop exit.
Allows in-process stop/restart (tests, embedded use).
Also tightened docstrings — 'corrupt the SQLite DBs' is now specific
(wal_autocheckpoint=0 + concurrent manual WAL checkpoints can corrupt
index pages), matching the module's own concurrency claims.
The gateway's embedded dispatcher has no guard against more than one dispatcher
running concurrently. dispatch_in_gateway defaults to true, so a second gateway
for the same profile (a restart race where the old process is slow to exit) — or
any deployment that runs multiple profile gateways with the default — starts a
second dispatcher loop. As #41448 describes, concurrent dispatchers each run
release_stale_claims() against the same boards, double reclaim frequency, and
re-dispatch slow workers before they finish. In practice they also corrupt the
shared kanban SQLite DBs under concurrent write load.
Add _acquire_singleton_lock(): an exclusive, non-blocking fcntl.flock at the
machine-global kanban root (kanban_home()/kanban/.dispatcher.lock — the board is
shared across profiles by design, so this serialises every gateway, not just one
profile). The first gateway to start its dispatcher holds the lock for its
process lifetime; any other gateway finds it contended, logs, and skips
dispatching while still running for messaging. Falls back to config-only control
on non-POSIX or filesystems without flock.
This is more robust than a per-profile guard because the documented model is
"one dispatcher sweeps all boards" — the contention is across profiles, not just
within one. Closes#41448.
Test: lock is exclusive (held, then contended while held, then held again after
release).
PR #49056 set the default to 0, which reverts the #45592 idle-clock fix:
without a periodic invalidate, prompt_toolkit stops repainting the bottom
chrome during idle and the status bar goes stale/disappears after a turn.
Restore 1.0 as the default for everyone. The config knob stays — users on
emulators where the per-second redraw fights auto-scroll (#48309) can set
display.cli_refresh_interval: 0 to opt out.
- _guard_named_profile_under_multiplexer: when the default gateway is running
with gateway.multiplex_profiles=on, a named-profile 'hermes gateway run' hard
-errors (pointing at the multiplexer) instead of double-binding that
profile's platforms. Inert unless all hold: this invocation is a named
profile, a default-profile gateway is alive, and its config has multiplexing
on. --force overrides. Wired into run_gateway's guard chain.
- write_runtime_status gains served_profiles: the secondary-adapter startup
records [active] + multiplexed profiles into runtime_status.json so
'hermes status' can show per-profile coverage without a second probe. Absent
for single-profile gateways.
Tests: served_profiles round-trips and is absent by default; guard is inert for
the default profile / under --force / when no default gateway is running.
Bring up adapters for every profile the gateway serves, not just the active
one. Keeps self.adapters as the default/active profile's map (the ~93 existing
self.adapters[...] sites are untouched) and adds secondary profiles under
self._profile_adapters[profile][platform].
- _start_secondary_profile_adapters loops profiles_to_serve(multiplex=True),
skips the active profile (handled by the primary startup loop), and for each
other profile loads its gateway config and creates+connects its enabled
adapters under that profile's _profile_runtime_scope (home + secret scope).
- Each secondary adapter gets _make_profile_message_handler(profile): stamps
source.profile (when unset) before delegating to the shared _handle_message,
so the agent turn and session key resolve to that profile.
- Same-platform credential-conflict detection: _adapter_credential_fingerprint
hashes the adapter's bot token (salted, truncated — never logs the token);
two profiles claiming the same (platform, token) refuse the duplicate with a
clear error naming both, since one token can't be polled twice.
- Port-binding hard-error: a SECONDARY profile that enables a port-binding
platform (webhook, api_server, msgraph_webhook, feishu, wecom_callback,
bluebubbles, sms) is a config error and aborts startup via MultiplexConfigError
— the default profile owns the single shared HTTP listener and serves every
profile through the /p/<profile>/ prefix, so a second bind can only collide.
Distinct from a transient connect failure (which logs + stays alive to retry):
a config error writes gateway_state=startup_failed and exits cleanly with an
actionable message (names the profile, the platform, and the fix). There is no
valid reason to bind a second port once you've opted into a multiplexer.
- Shutdown tears down secondary adapters alongside the primary ones.
- Defensive getattr guards keep partial-construction unit tests (stop(),
_run_agent on bare instances) working.
No-op when multiplex_profiles is off (self._profile_adapters stays empty).
Tests: fingerprint stability/log-safety/distinctness, profile message-handler
stamping (and not overriding an already-stamped source), port-binding hard-error
raises + names the profile/platform, non-binding platform is not rejected, and
the guard set covers every TCP-binding adapter.
Serve webhook inbound for multiple profiles off the one shared listener via a
URL prefix, with no second port bound.
- SessionSource gains a 'profile' field (round-trips through to_dict/from_dict;
omitted when unset so existing serialization is unchanged). It carries which
profile an inbound message was routed to.
- WebhookAdapter registers /p/{profile}/webhooks/{route_name} alongside the
existing /webhooks/{route_name}. _resolve_request_profile validates the
prefix against profiles_to_serve(): None when absent or multiplexing is off
(ignored, handled as default — no spurious 404), the profile name when valid,
_PROFILE_REJECTED (→ 404) when the profile isn't served. The resolved profile
is stamped onto the SessionSource.
- session-key namespacing and the per-turn home/credential scope now prefer
source.profile: SessionStore._resolve_profile_for_key(source),
_session_key_for_source fallback, and _resolve_profile_home_for_source all
honor it (→ the agent turn resolves that profile's config/skills/credentials
via the Phase 2 _profile_runtime_scope).
Constraint: routing inbound needs no per-profile platform credential, but the
agent still needs the routed profile's provider key — delivered by Phase 2's
secret scope. api_server (OpenAI-compatible surface) profile routing is a
focused follow-on; its source-construction path differs from webhook's.
Tests: SessionSource.profile round-trip + namespace drive; _resolve_request_
profile accept/reject/ignore matrix.
The credential gate. When multiplexing is active, a profile's secrets resolve
from a context-local scope, never the process-global os.environ (which in a
multiplexer may hold another profile's keys, and is inherited by every
subprocess spawned with env=dict(os.environ)).
- agent/secret_scope.py: get_secret() backed by a secret-scope contextvar.
FAIL-CLOSED: when multiplex is active and no scope is installed, an unscoped
read RAISES UnscopedSecretError instead of falling back to os.environ — a
missed/new call site crashes loudly at that line rather than leaking a
cross-profile value. Genuinely-global vars (HERMES_*, PATH, kanban paths,
…) keep reading os.environ via an allowlist. load_env_file/build_profile_
secret_scope parse a profile .env into an isolated dict WITHOUT mutating
os.environ. Off by default => transparent os.getenv behavior.
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py: all credential/provider/base-url reads go
through _getenv -> get_secret.
- agent/credential_pool.py: env fallbacks route through get_secret (the
~/.hermes/.env-first preference is preserved and already profile-correct via
the home override).
- tools/mcp_tool.py: MCP config interpolation resolves through
get_secret, so a server's picks up the routed profile's value.
- gateway/run.py: set_multiplex_active() at GatewayRunner init; per-turn .env
reload is a no-op for credentials in multiplex mode (secrets come from the
scope, not global env); _profile_runtime_scope context manager combines the
HERMES_HOME override + secret scope; _run_agent wraps _run_agent_inner in
that scope (resolved via _resolve_profile_home_for_source) when multiplexing.
Propagates into the agent worker thread for free via the existing
copy_context() in _run_in_executor_with_context.
Tests: 13 unit (fail-closed, scope isolation, global allowlist, .env parsing
without environ mutation) + 7 E2E (runtime_provider + MCP interpolation prove
two profiles isolated, unscoped read raises, globals still read environ).
Foundations for serving multiple profiles from one gateway process, inert
when off:
- gateway.multiplex_profiles config flag (default false), round-trips through
GatewayConfig and load_gateway_config (top-level + nested gateway.* form).
- hermes_cli.profiles.profiles_to_serve(multiplex): the single chokepoint for
which (profile, HERMES_HOME) pairs the gateway serves. Lightweight dir scan;
active-profile-only when off, default + all named profiles when on.
- build_session_key gains a profile= namespace slot. Default/None reuse the
historical 'agent:main:...' literal BYTE-IDENTICALLY (no session migration,
positional parsers unaffected); a named profile becomes 'agent:<profile>:...'
so two profiles on the same platform/chat never collide.
- SessionStore._resolve_profile_for_key + _session_key_for_source fallback
resolve the namespace from the flag (legacy when off, active profile when on).
Tests: byte-identical-when-off (parametrized), namespace isolation, positional
layout preserved, config round-trip, profiles_to_serve enumeration.
Discord channel-history backfill partitions on Hermes' last self-authored
message. Asynchronous, non-conversational status sends (self-improvement
review bubbles, heartbeats, background-process notifications, update status,
gateway restart/online notices) land as ordinary bot messages, so a delayed
status bump becomes the history boundary and swallows real messages that
arrived after Hermes' actual reply.
Mark these sends at the source via metadata["non_conversational"] (Discord
only; other platforms' metadata is unchanged). The adapter no longer advances
the history-boundary cache for marked sends and persists their IDs to a
sidecar JSON so the cold-start scan can skip them by ID after a restart. A
narrow regex recognizer remains only as an upgrade bridge for status bumps
emitted by an older gateway that pre-dates the marking.
The xAI TTS REST endpoint (POST /v1/tts) accepts 'speed' (0.7-1.5)
and 'optimize_streaming_latency' (0/1/2) parameters, but the Hermes
built-in xAI provider was reading neither from config nor sending
either in the request body. Add them as tts.xai.speed and
tts.xai.optimize_streaming_latency config knobs (with global
tts.speed / tts.optimize_streaming_latency fallbacks).
- speed: float, clamped to 0.7-1.5. 1.0 (the API default) is omitted
from the request body to preserve the existing minimal-payload
contract.
- optimize_streaming_latency: int, clamped to 0-2. 0 (best quality,
the API default) is omitted from the request body.
Resolver order: tts.xai.<knob> overrides the global tts.<knob>.
Adds the end-to-end parity contract test: every CANONICAL_PROVIDERS entry (the
`hermes model` universe) must be configurable on a desktop Providers tab —
keys(/api/env) ∪ ids(/api/providers/oauth) ⊇ canonical. Asserted as an
invariant against the live endpoints so the GUI can never silently drift from
the CLI again.
Surfacing this contract caught Bedrock: it's aws_sdk (no api-key vars), so it
had no Keys card. /api/env now tags AWS_REGION/AWS_PROFILE to the bedrock
provider card. Anthropic is whitelisted as a legitimate dual-tab provider
(direct API key + subscription OAuth).
Also refreshes the _OAUTH_PROVIDER_CATALOG docstring to describe its new role
as the override base for _build_oauth_catalog().
/api/providers/oauth now unions the explicit hand-tuned OAuth cards
(_OAUTH_PROVIDER_CATALOG — bespoke flow/status/cli, plus the api-key Anthropic
PKCE card and synthetic claude-code row) with every accounts-tab provider in
provider_catalog(). Any OAuth/external provider in the `hermes model` universe
now appears automatically, closing the drift where google-gemini-cli and
copilot-acp had no Accounts card despite being CLI-configurable.
Adds read-only status cards for google-gemini-cli (via existing
get_gemini_oauth_auth_status) and copilot-acp (managed-by-CLI, like claude-code).
DELETE handler routes through the same _build_oauth_catalog() builder.
Parity test asserts the Accounts tab offers every accounts-tab catalog provider
as an invariant.
The Keys tab now surfaces every keys-tab provider in provider_catalog() (the
`hermes model` universe), synthesizing a card even when the env var has no hand
entry in OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS. Closes the drift where openai-api, kilocode, novita,
tencent-tokenhub, and copilot were CLI-configurable but invisible in the desktop
Providers → API keys tab.
Each provider row now carries backend-derived provider/provider_label grouping
hints so the desktop can group by the same provider identity the CLI picker
uses. Hand OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS prose still wins where present (enrichment, not a
gate). Shared non-provider credentials (e.g. tool-category GITHUB_TOKEN) are
explicitly not hijacked into a provider card — Copilot uses its provider-owned
COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN.
Adds hermes_cli/provider_catalog.py, deriving one descriptor per provider from
the CANONICAL_PROVIDERS universe (what `hermes model` renders, auto-extended
from provider plugins), joined with auth/env from PROVIDER_REGISTRY and display
metadata from ProviderProfile (with canonical/env fallbacks for the four
profile-less providers and the many profiles with blank display/signup fields).
Each descriptor is tagged with the desktop tab it belongs on (keys vs accounts)
by auth_type. This is the single source of truth the desktop Providers tabs will
derive membership from, so they can no longer drift from the CLI picker.
Tests assert the parity contract (catalog == hermes model universe) and tab
routing as invariants, not snapshots.
The previous xAI auto-speech-tag tests asserted on the local
pause-only fallback and only passed because call_llm silently
returns None in the test environment. They gave zero coverage of
the new auxiliary-rewrite path added in the previous commit.
Add tests that:
- mock agent.auxiliary_client.call_llm and pin down the new contract
(auxiliary rewriter output wins over the local fallback)
- verify the system prompt lists every documented inline + wrapping
tag and uses BBCode-style [/tag] closing syntax
- cover markdown-fence stripping (with and without language hint)
- exercise the local fallback on rewriter exception, empty response,
None response, and missing-choices response
- confirm call_llm is NOT invoked when the input already has
explicit speech tags, or is empty / whitespace-only
- replace the end-to-end test that asserted on the silent-fallback
output with one that mocks the rewriter and asserts the
rewriter's tagged text is what reaches the xAI TTS API
A plain /model <name> switch only lasted for the current session — every
new session reverted to the previously-configured model, so users had to
re-switch every time (e.g. glm-5.1 -> glm-5.2 on every launch).
Persist-by-default is now the behavior across all three /model surfaces
(CLI, gateway, TUI/dashboard), gated by a new config key
model.persist_switch_by_default (default true):
/model <name> switch model (persists to config.yaml)
/model <name> --session switch for this session only
/model <name> --global switch and persist (explicit, unchanged)
The effective persistence is resolved once via resolve_persist_behavior()
in hermes_cli/model_switch.py so --session opts out, --global opts in,
and the config-gated default applies otherwise. --global remains a valid
explicit no-op alias for the new default.
gui.log was registered in hermes_cli/logs.py::LOG_FILES (and surfaced by
`hermes logs gui`) but was never wired into `hermes debug share`. The share
report captured agent/errors/gateway/desktop tails plus full agent/gateway/
desktop logs — but nothing from gui.log, the surface the dashboard, TUI-over-
PTY bridge, and websocket layer (hermes_cli.web_server / pty_bridge /
tui_gateway) actually write to. A user reporting a dashboard or TUI bug shared
zero breadcrumbs from the broken surface.
Wire gui.log through all three share surfaces, matching the existing pattern:
- _capture_default_log_snapshots(): capture the gui snapshot (redacted like the rest)
- collect_debug_report(): add the gui.log summary tail block
- build_debug_share(): pull gui full_text, prepend dump header + redaction banner, add to the upload loop
- run_debug_share() --local branch: same, plus the local print block
- _PRIVACY_NOTICE: name gui.log in both bullets
Redaction is inherited for free — the gui snapshot goes through the same
_capture_log_snapshot(..., redact=redact) path, so secrets are scrubbed in
both the tail and full text (verified E2E: seeded key masked by default,
passes through under --no-redact, raw token never leaks).
Tests: seed gui.log in the fixture, add test_report_includes_gui_log, and bump
the upload-count tripwire 4->5 (test_share_uploads_five_pastes).
The built-in Piper provider (tts.provider: piper, Python piper-tts
package) already constructs piper.SynthesisConfig for the advanced
tuning knobs, but did not forward speaker_id from the user config.
This wires tts.piper.speaker_id through to SynthesisConfig.speaker_id
so multi-speaker ONNX models (e.g. libritts_r) can be addressed via
config without dropping to the command-provider path.
Changes:
- Add speaker_id to the has_advanced tuple so setting it triggers
SynthesisConfig construction (same gating as the other knobs).
- Pass speaker_id=speaker_id to SynthesisConfig. Defaults to 0
(Piper's own default; single-speaker models ignore the field).
- Tolerant parse: bad input (non-int strings, lists, dicts) is
dropped to 0 instead of raising. Booleans are rejected outright
(True/False would silently coerce to 1/0 and hide a config
mistake). Mirrors the same shape as the command-provider's
_resolve_command_tts_optional_number helper.
speaker_id is applied per-call via syn_config.speaker_id, so the
PiperVoice cache key is intentionally left as just (model, cuda) --
the same loaded model serves all speakers. Tests cover the
config knob, the tolerant parse, and the no-reload invariant.
sentence_silence is intentionally not added here: the Python
piper-tts SynthesisConfig does not expose that field (CLI-only).
Address correctness gaps found in pre-PR review of the strict matcher:
- Profile selectors can appear on EITHER side of the `gateway` token
(`_apply_profile_override` strips `--profile`/`-p` from anywhere in argv
before argparse), so `hermes gateway --profile work run` and
`python -m hermes_cli.main gateway -p work run` are valid launches the
previous matcher wrongly rejected. Strip `--profile`/`-p`/`--profile=`/`-p=`
from anywhere before locating the subcommand.
- A profile literally named `gateway` (`hermes -p gateway gateway run`) made
the old token scan stop on the profile value; stripping the selector+value
first fixes it.
- Tokenize quote-aware with `shlex` so quoted Windows paths containing spaces
(`"C:\Program Files\Hermes\hermes-gateway.exe"`) are no longer split mid-path
and the dedicated-entrypoint match survives.
Without these, the matcher could MISS a real running gateway -> the opposite
failure (restart/status reporting "down" when up). Adds regression tests for
all three shapes.

The pyproject addopts pin `--timeout-method=signal` relies on signal.SIGALRM,
which doesn't exist on Windows. pytest-timeout raised AttributeError at timer
setup and aborted the entire run before any test executed, so the suite was
unrunnable on Windows by default. Override timeout_method to "thread" on
Windows in pytest_configure; POSIX keeps the more reliable signal method.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
`hermes gateway restart` on Windows could take the gateway offline with no
replacement. restart() was stop() -> sleep(1.0) -> start(), but the graceful
drain can run up to ~180s while the detached pythonw process stays alive. The
1s sleep let start() run against the still-draining old process; its
"already running" guard then no-opped, and when the old process finally exited
nothing relaunched it.
Two root causes, both fixed:
1. Loose PID detection. `_scan_gateway_pids` and the gateway.status helpers
used substring matches ("... gateway" in cmdline) for lifecycle decisions,
so they false-matched `gateway status`/`dashboard` siblings and unrelated
processes like `python -m tui_gateway`, plus stale gateway.pid records.
Add a shared strict matcher `looks_like_gateway_command_line()` in
gateway/status.py that requires the real `gateway run` subcommand (or the
dedicated entrypoints), and route `_looks_like_gateway_process`,
`_record_looks_like_gateway`, and `_scan_gateway_pids` through it.
2. restart() race. Wait until the gateway is authoritatively gone
(`get_running_pid()` + strict `_gateway_pids()`) before relaunch; force-kill
once if it lingers and raise rather than start a duplicate; verify the
relaunch produced a running gateway and raise loudly if not (no more
exit-0 silent outage).
Scoped to Windows; systemd/launchd restart paths are already drain-aware.
Adds tests/gateway/test_gateway_command_line_matcher.py.

Replaces the tautological test from the original PR (which asserted a
plain assignment it performed itself in the test body) with one that
exercises the actual contracts: _init_cached_agent_for_turn leaves
max_iterations untouched, and the per-turn IterationBudget rebuild
(turn_context.py) propagates a refreshed cap.
The Discord fix (previous commit) handles dict-shaped clarify choices at the
Discord adapter only. The same dict-repr leak originates upstream at
tools/clarify_tool.py's str(c).strip() normalization — the single
platform-agnostic point both the CLI and every gateway adapter flow through.
When an LLM emits [{"description": "..."}] instead of bare strings, str(c)
produced {'description': '...'} which leaked onto the CLI panel
(cli.py:13048/13081), was returned verbatim as the user's answer
(cli.py:11945), and hit Telegram's numbered list too.
Add _flatten_choice (same label->description->text->title unwrap as the
Discord adapter, name/value excluded, keyless dicts dropped) and apply it at
the normalization line. Fixes CLI + Telegram + all platforms at the root;
the Discord smart-truncation now operates on already-clean text.
Adds johnjacobkenny to AUTHOR_MAP for the salvaged commit.
Two bugs surfaced from production usage in #37134:
1. Dict choices rendered as Python repr. LLMs sometimes emit
[{"description": "..."}] instead of bare strings; the old
str(c).strip() coercion turned the whole dict into
"{'description': '...'}" on the button label.
Fix: add a _flatten_choice helper that unwraps dicts against
the canonical LLM tool-call user-facing keys (label, description,
text, title) in that order. Dicts with none of those keys are
dropped. The "name" and "value" keys are deliberately NOT in the
priority list — they're Discord-component-shaped fields that
could appear in dicts that aren't meant to be choices (a
developer-error wiring that passes a Button-shaped object);
picking them would leak raw enum values or 4-char model
identifiers onto user-facing buttons.
2. Mid-word truncation on long button labels. The old
choice[:72] + "..." cut at position 72, mid-word. Worse, the
three-char ellipsis ate into the 80-char Discord label cap,
leaving only 75 chars of body.
Fix: budget-aware cut strategy with three tiers:
a. Last space in the trailing half of the budget (word boundary).
b. Last soft boundary (- , . )) in the trailing half — used
only when no word boundary exists.
c. Hard cut at the budget limit (last resort).
Use single U+2026 (…) to fit the cap. Cut AT soft boundaries
(inclusive) so the label ends on the boundary char rather than
on the alpha char that followed it.
Tests:
- test_unwraps_dict_choices_to_description: reproduces the
screenshot in #37134, asserts the Python repr is gone.
- test_unwrap_prefers_description_over_name_in_multi_key_dict:
regression guard for the name-key order in the unwrap list.
- test_unwrap_prefers_label_over_description: regression guard
for label winning over description.
- test_unwrap_does_not_pick_value_or_name_alone: regression
guard for the "name"/"value" fields being absent.
- test_truncates_long_choice_label: 200-char input, asserts
total <= 80 and U+2026.
- test_truncates_long_choice_label_breaks_on_word_boundary:
asserts the cut is on a space, not mid-word.
- test_truncates_long_no_space_choice_on_soft_boundary:
adversarial input where position 76 is mid-word alpha, asserts
the renderer falls back to a soft boundary.
Parity: telegram clarify suite (12 tests) still passes; the
helper is a Discord adapter local, not shared with the gateway.
Follow-up: gateway/platforms/telegram.py has the same str(c).strip()
pattern in its own send_clarify and will need a similar fix
(separate PR to keep this diff reviewable).
Fixes#37134
Regression tests for renaming a compression continuation back to its base
title: single- and multi-level chains transfer the title off the ended
predecessor, while unrelated sessions and non-compression children (created
while the parent was live) still raise the uniqueness conflict.
When /goal (and other _PENDING_INPUT_COMMANDS: retry, queue, q, steer,
plan, undo) were typed in the TUI desktop app, slash.exec returned error
4018 instructing the frontend to fall back to command.dispatch. Some
clients failed that client-side fallback, leaving the command empty and
surfacing "empty command" — the user's typed text was silently dropped.
slash.exec now routes pending-input commands to command.dispatch
internally, eliminating the fragile client-side fallback hop. The
response is exactly what command.dispatch would have produced, so the
TUI client behaves identically once the round-trip succeeds.
Salvaged from #48944 — rebased onto current main. The original PR's
source change and test_goal_command.py update are correct, but it missed
the second test surface: tests/tui_gateway/test_protocol.py's
parametrized test_slash_exec_rejects_pending_input_commands still
asserted the old 4018 rejection for retry/queue/q/steer/plan, turning CI
red (5 failures). That test is rewritten here as a behavior contract:
slash.exec for a pending-input command must yield the same payload as a
direct command.dispatch call, and must no longer emit the old
"pending-input command" fallback rejection.

`hermes backup` walked every file under HERMES_HOME, excluding only
hermes-agent / node_modules / __pycache__ / backups / checkpoints. Python
dependency trees (plugin and MCP-server venvs, site-packages) and pip/uv
tool caches that live under HERMES_HOME were swept in file-by-file,
ballooning a backup to hundreds of thousands of entries that crawl for
hours — the reported "backup stuck for days / 426543 files" symptom.
Add the canonical regeneratable-dir names (.venv, venv, site-packages,
.tox, .nox, .pytest_cache, .mypy_cache, .ruff_cache — mirroring
agent.skill_utils.EXCLUDED_SKILL_DIRS) plus .cache to the backup's
exclusion set, used by both run_backup and the pre-update/pre-migration
_write_full_zip_backup. .archive is intentionally left in so the curator's
restorable archived skills still get backed up.
Tests cover each new dir name (excluded at any depth), that .archive and
cache-resembling files are kept, and an integration check that a planted
venv/site-packages/cache is pruned from the actual backup zip while
skills/config survive.
Two follow-up fixes on top of the cherry-picked structured-sync work:
- _messages_to_openviking_batch only added a recall tool result's id to
skipped_tool_ids when the id was non-empty. An empty tool_call_id (which
the canonical transcript can carry; agent_runtime_helpers defaults it to
"") poisoned the skip set with "", silently dropping any *other* tool
result that also lacked an id. Move the recall-skip add inside the
existing `if tool_id:` guard. Adds a regression test (mutation-checked:
fails on pre-fix code, passes after).
- _sync_trace_enabled() open-coded the canonical truthy-env check; reuse
utils.env_var_enabled (byte-identical {1,true,yes,on} semantics).
- Drop empty entries before validating SLACK_ALLOWED_USERS so a trailing or
interior comma (which the gateway silently tolerates in
gateway/platforms/slack.py) is no longer rejected at the dashboard.
- Hoist the member-ID regex to a module-level _SLACK_MEMBER_ID_RE constant
and note it stays in sync with the frontend SLACK_MEMBER_ID_RE.
- Add a regression test for the trailing-comma case.
The new SLACK_ALLOWED_USERS validation rejected '*', but the Slack gateway
honors '*' as an allow-all wildcard (gateway/platforms/slack.py DM auth,
slash-confirm, and approval-button paths). Accept '*' as a valid list entry
in both the API validator and the dashboard form so a value the runtime
honors is no longer blocked at setup.
* fix(relay): enable RELAY platform + normalize dial URL so hosted gateways actually connect
Three bugs blocked a self-provisioned hosted gateway from ever establishing its
inbound relay WS (found while standing up the live staging end-to-end). Each
masked the next; all three are needed for inbound to work.
1. RELAY platform never enabled in config.platforms (gateway/config.py).
register_relay_adapter() puts the adapter in the platform_registry, but
start_gateway()'s connect loop iterates self.config.platforms — which never
contained Platform.RELAY. So the adapter was "registered" but never connected
(logs showed "relay adapter registered" then "No messaging platforms
enabled"). Fix: _apply_env_overrides now enables Platform.RELAY (mirroring
relay_url into extra for the connected-checker) when GATEWAY_RELAY_URL (env)
or gateway.relay_url (yaml) is set. Absent -> no RELAY entry (direct/
single-tenant gateways unaffected).
2. URL scheme not converted for the WS dial (gateway/relay/ws_transport.py).
The relay URL is configured once as the http(s):// base (used as-is for the
provision POST), but websockets.connect rejects http(s):// with "scheme isn't
ws or wss". Fix: _ws_dial_url converts https->wss / http->ws.
3. /relay path not appended (same helper). The connector mounts its
WebSocketServer at path "/relay" and returns HTTP 400 on an upgrade to any
other path. GATEWAY_RELAY_URL is the base (no /relay), so the dial hit "/"
-> 400. Fix: _ws_dial_url ensures the path ends in /relay. Idempotent — a URL
already carrying ws(s):// and/or /relay is unchanged, so provision's
_provision_url (which derives /relay/provision from either form) still works.
Why the cross-repo E2E missed #2/#3: the stub connector binds ws://host:port and
its websockets.serve accepts ANY path, so neither the scheme nor the /relay path
was exercised. Real connector needs both.
Verified live on staging hermes-agent-stg-automated-perception-5054: after the
fixes the gateway logs "Connecting to relay..." -> "✓ relay connected" ->
"Gateway running with 1 platform(s)" against
wss://gateway-gateway.staging-nousresearch.com/relay, stable.
Tests: added _ws_dial_url scheme+path+idempotency cases (test_ws_transport.py)
and RELAY-platform-enablement cases for env + yaml + absent (test_config.py).
Full gateway/relay + config suites green (191 passed).
Relay-adapter lane. EXPERIMENTAL.
* fix(relay): re-attach guild_id to outbound so connector egress resolves the tenant
The final bug in the hosted-relay round-trip. Inbound worked end to end (Discord
-> connector -> bus -> agent WS -> agent runs -> reply), but the reply's egress
was declined by the connector: "discord egress declined: target not routed to an
onboarded tenant".
Cause: the connector's routedEgressGuard resolves the owning tenant from the
OUTBOUND action's metadata.guild_id (Discord's routing discriminator). The
gateway's generic delivery path builds outbound metadata via
run.py _thread_metadata_for_source, which only carries thread_id (and returns
None entirely for a non-threaded message) — so guild_id never reached the
connector, tenant resolution failed, and the shared bot refused to post.
Fix (relay-adapter-local, no perturbation of the generic delivery path or other
platforms): RelayAdapter learns chat_id -> guild_id from each inbound event
(_capture_scope) and re-attaches it to the outbound action's metadata in send()
(_with_scope) when not already present. No-op for chats we never saw inbound
(e.g. DMs) and never overwrites an explicit guild_id.
Verified live on staging hermes-agent-stg-automated-perception-5054: an
@mention in #general now produces a visible bot reply — full multi-tenant relay
round-trip (real Discord -> shared connector bot -> tenant routing -> agent WS ->
reply egress -> Discord).
Tests: _capture_scope/_with_scope reattach, no-scope no-op, explicit-guild_id
preserved (test_relay_adapter.py). Full relay + config suites green (160 passed).

systemctl --user restart hermes-gateway run via the terminal tool is a
child of the gateway itself. When systemd delivers SIGTERM the gateway
kills this subprocess before it can complete, so the service may never
restart — reproducing issue #37453.
The hermes gateway restart/stop guard (hermes_cli/gateway.py) and the
cron-path guard (hermes_cli/cron.py) already block equivalent commands
in their respective paths but the terminal tool had no such defense.
Add a hard-block before command execution in terminal_tool: when
_HERMES_GATEWAY=1 and the command matches _contains_gateway_lifecycle_command,
return an error immediately. force=True cannot bypass it — unlike the
normal dangerous-command approval flow, here even a user-approved restart
would fail because the SIGTERM propagates to child processes.
Also extend _GATEWAY_LIFECYCLE_PATTERNS to match systemctl with flags
(e.g. systemctl --user restart) — the previous regex required the
action word immediately after systemctl with no flags in between.
Adds 9 regression tests: 6 blocked variants (parametrized), force bypass
attempt, safe systemctl passthrough, and guard-inactive-outside-gateway.
