Interactive `hermes` launch drops from ~21s to ~2.5s. Three independent
fixes, each targets a distinct hot spot in the banner / tool-registration
path that fires on every CLI invocation.
1. `get_external_skills_dirs()` in-process mtime cache (~10s saved)
The function re-read + YAML-parsed the full ~/.hermes/config.yaml on
every call. Banner build invokes it once per skill to resolve the
category column, which on a 120-skill install meant ~120 reparses of
a 15 KB config (~85 ms each). Added a
`(config_path, mtime_ns) -> list[Path]` memo; stat() is ~2 us vs
~85 ms for the parse. Edits to config.yaml invalidate the cache on
the next call via mtime.
2. Feishu availability probe uses `importlib.util.find_spec` (~5.2s saved)
`tools/feishu_doc_tool.py::_check_feishu` and the identical helper in
`feishu_drive_tool.py` were calling `import lark_oapi` purely to
detect whether the SDK was installed. Executing the real import pulls
in websockets + dispatcher + every v2 API model — ~5 seconds of work
that fires at every tool-registry bootstrap. `find_spec` answers the
same question ("is lark_oapi importable?") without executing the
module. The actual tool handlers still do the real import on invoke,
so runtime behavior is unchanged.
3. `_web_requires_env` no longer triggers Nous portal refresh (~800ms saved)
`tools/web_tools.py::_web_requires_env` used
`managed_nous_tools_enabled()` to gate four gateway env-var names in
the returned list. The gate called `get_nous_auth_status()` ->
`resolve_nous_runtime_credentials()` -> live HTTP POST to the portal
on every tool-registry bootstrap. But the list is pure metadata — if
the env var is set at runtime, the tool lights up; otherwise it
doesn't. Including the four names unconditionally is harmless for
unsubscribed users (vars just aren't set) and eliminates the sync
HTTP round trip from startup.
Test:
- tests/agent/test_external_skills_dirs_cache.py (new, 6 cases):
returns config'd dir, caches on second call (yaml_load patched to
raise — never invoked), invalidates on mtime bump, empty when config
missing, returned list is a defensive copy, per-HERMES_HOME cache key
isolation.
- Existing tests/agent/test_external_skills.py and tests/tools/
continue to pass modulo pre-existing flakes on main (test_delegate,
test_send_message — unrelated, pass in isolation).
Measured: bare `hermes` (cold → REPL ready) 21,519ms -> 2,618ms on
Teknium's install (119 skills, 15 KB config.yaml, Nous auth logged in,
lark_oapi installed). 8x faster.
Follow-up polish on top of the cherry-picked #11023 commit.
- feishu_comment_rules.py: replace import-time "~/.hermes" expanduser fallback
with get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants (canonical, profile-safe).
- tools/feishu_doc_tool.py, tools/feishu_drive_tool.py: drop the
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(asyncio.to_thread(...)) dance.
Tool handlers run synchronously in a worker thread with no running loop, so
the RuntimeError branch was always the one that executed. Calls client.request
directly now. Unused asyncio import removed.
- tests/gateway/test_feishu.py: add register_p2_customized_event to the mock
EventDispatcher builder so the existing adapter test matches the new handler
registration for drive.notice.comment_add_v1.
- scripts/release.py: map liujinkun@bytedance.com -> liujinkun2025 for
contributor attribution on release notes.
- Full comment handler: parse drive.notice.comment_add_v1 events, build
timeline, run agent, deliver reply with chunking support.
- 5 tools: feishu_doc_read, feishu_drive_list_comments,
feishu_drive_list_comment_replies, feishu_drive_reply_comment,
feishu_drive_add_comment.
- 3-tier access control rules (exact doc > wildcard "*" > top-level >
defaults) with per-field fallback. Config via
~/.hermes/feishu_comment_rules.json, mtime-cached hot-reload.
- Self-reply filter using generalized self_open_id (supports future
user-identity subscriptions). Receiver check: only process events
where the bot is the @mentioned target.
- Smart timeline selection, long text chunking, semantic text extraction,
session sharing per document, wiki link resolution.
