After Popen succeeds with os.setsid (detached process group), 5 things
happen with no try/except: Thread construction, reader.start(), lock
acquisition, prune+register, checkpoint write. If any raises, the
Popen object goes unregistered and the detached process group leaks
indefinitely.
Wrap the post-spawn setup in try/except. On failure:
- os.killpg(getpgid(pid), SIGKILL) takes down the entire process
group (not just the shell - important because of detached PG +
-lic shell wrapper that may have spawned children)
- proc.kill() fallback for ProcessLookupError/PermissionError/OSError
- proc.wait(timeout=5) reaps with a bound
- re-raise to preserve original traceback
Nested try/except around cleanup so a secondary failure can't mask the
original.
Closes#2749.
Problem
=======
`tools.checkpoint_manager._touch_project` reads the project metadata
file with `json.loads(meta_path.read_text(...))`, then immediately does:
meta["workdir"] = str(_normalize_path(working_dir))
The `except` block only catches `(OSError, ValueError)`. When the file
parses successfully but returns a non-dict value (a list `[]`, `null`,
or a scalar from a corrupted or hand-truncated write), `json.loads`
succeeds without error and `meta` is set to, e.g., `[]`. The subsequent
subscript assignment then raises `TypeError: list indices must be
integers or slices, not str`, which is NOT caught by the narrow except
clause.
This TypeError propagates up through `_take` to `ensure_checkpoint`,
where the broad `except Exception` safety net swallows it. The effect
is that `ensure_checkpoint` silently returns False for the entire
session — all checkpoints are skipped for the affected working directory
without any user-visible error.
Root cause
==========
Missing `isinstance(meta, dict)` guard after `json.loads`, identical in
pattern to bugs fixed in `cron/jobs.py` (#22569) and
`tools/process_registry.py` (#22544). The same guard is already
present one function below in `_list_projects` (line 506), but was
inadvertently omitted in `_touch_project`.
Fix
===
Add two lines after the try/except:
```python
if not isinstance(meta, dict):
meta = {}
```
This matches the existing guard in `_list_projects` and ensures a fresh
empty dict is used whenever the persisted value is not a mapping —
preserving the `created_at` semantics via `setdefault` on the next line.
Tests
=====
`TestTouchProjectMalformedMeta` covers four non-dict root values
(`[]`, `null`, `42`, `"oops"`). Each writes a corrupted metadata file,
calls `_touch_project`, and asserts: (a) no exception raised, (b) the
metadata file is rewritten as a valid dict containing `last_touch` and
`workdir`. All four fail on main with `TypeError`, pass with fix.
Full `tests/tools/test_checkpoint_manager.py` regression: 77 passed.
The FTS5 trigram tokenizer requires >=3 CJK characters per individual
token to produce matchable trigrams. A query like "广西 OR 桂林 OR 漓江"
has cjk_count=6 (passes the existing >=3 guard) but each token is only
2 CJK chars, so the trigram index returns 0 results.
Fix:
- Add per-token check: if any non-operator CJK token has <3 CJK chars,
force the LIKE fallback path regardless of total cjk_count.
- Expand the LIKE fallback to build one LIKE condition per non-operator
token joined with OR, so each term is matched independently.
Regression tests added in TestCJKSearchFallback:
- test_cjk_or_combined_short_tokens_returns_results
- test_cjk_short_token_or_query_preserves_filters
Problem:
When a provider or proxy drops a streaming response mid-flight (httpcore
raises RemoteProtocolError: "incomplete chunked read", "peer closed
connection", "response ended prematurely", etc.), _generate_summary
would not classify it as a transient error. Instead of retrying on the
main model, it entered the generic 60-second cooldown, leaving context
growing unbounded until the cooldown expired. Issue #18458.
Root cause:
_is_connection_error in auxiliary_client.py did not match httpcore's
streaming premature-close error substrings. context_compressor.py's
_generate_summary except block never called _is_connection_error, so
those errors fell through to the 60-second generic cooldown rather than
triggering the retry-on-main fallback path used for timeouts.
Fix:
1. auxiliary_client.py — extend _is_connection_error keyword list with:
"incomplete chunked read", "peer closed connection",
"response ended prematurely", "unexpected eof",
"remoteprotocolerror", "localprotocolerror".
Also guard the `from openai import ...` with try/except ImportError
so the function works in environments without the openai package.
2. context_compressor.py — import _is_connection_error and call it in
_generate_summary's except block as _is_streaming_closed. Include
_is_streaming_closed in the fallback-to-main condition (alongside
_is_model_not_found, _is_timeout, _is_json_decode) and use the
shorter 30s transient cooldown for streaming-closed errors.
Tests:
4 new regression tests in TestStreamingClosedFallback:
- test_incomplete_chunked_read_falls_back_to_main
- test_peer_closed_connection_falls_back_to_main
- test_streaming_closed_on_main_uses_short_cooldown (stash-verified)
- test_non_streaming_unknown_error_still_uses_long_cooldown

PR #2974 whitelisted three reasoning fields (reasoning, reasoning_details,
codex_reasoning_items) for the gateway's simple-text replay branch. Three
more fields were added to the DB later but the whitelist was never updated:
- reasoning_content: provider-facing thinking text. _copy_reasoning_content_for_api
promotes 'reasoning' -> 'reasoning_content' at send time only when the
strings happen to match. Carrying the original verbatim avoids loss
for providers that return them as distinct fields (DeepSeek/Kimi/
Moonshot thinking modes), and preserves the empty-string sentinel
that DeepSeek V4 Pro requires for thinking-mode replay.
- codex_message_items: exact assistant message items with 'phase'.
OpenAI docs: 'preserve and resend phase on all assistant messages —
dropping it can degrade performance.' Required for prefix cache hits.
No recovery path exists — once dropped, gone.
- finish_reason: informational; cheap to keep so transcripts replay
identically across CLI and gateway.
The CLI is unaffected because cli.py keeps the live in-memory message list
across turns (cli.py:10046 'self.conversation_history = result["messages"]').
The gateway rebuilds agent_history from the SQLite transcript on every turn,
so any field stripped during replay is silently lost.
Refactors the inline whitelist into a module-level _build_replay_entry()
helper so the contract can be unit-tested. 16 new tests pin the field set
and falsy-value handling.
Verified end-to-end: DB stores all 8 fields, replay now preserves all 8
(was preserving only 5 for assistant text turns).
Pick openrouter/pareto-code as your model and OpenRouter auto-routes each
request to the cheapest model meeting your coding-quality bar (ranked by
Artificial Analysis). The new openrouter.min_coding_score config key (0.0-1.0,
default 0.65) tunes the floor.
- hermes_cli/models.py: add openrouter/pareto-code to OPENROUTER_MODELS so
it shows up in the picker with a description
- hermes_cli/config.py: add openrouter.min_coding_score (default 0.65 — lands
on a mid-tier coder on the current Pareto frontier)
- plugins/model-providers/openrouter: emit extra_body.plugins =
[{id: pareto-router, min_coding_score: X}] when model is openrouter/pareto-code
AND the score is a valid float in [0.0, 1.0]
- agent/transports/chat_completions.py: same emission on the legacy flag
path (when no provider profile is loaded)
- run_agent.py: openrouter_min_coding_score kwarg + storage; plumbed into
both build_kwargs() invocations and the context-summary extra_body path
- cli.py: read openrouter.min_coding_score once at init, validate float in
[0,1], pass to AIAgent constructions (CLI + background-task paths)
- cron/scheduler.py, batch_runner.py, tools/delegate_tool.py,
tui_gateway/server.py: propagate the kwarg (mirrors providers_order
plumbing — subagents inherit, cron/batch read from config)
- tests: profile-level + transport-level coverage of the model gating,
unset/empty/out-of-range handling, and the legacy flag path
- docs: new 'OpenRouter Pareto Code Router' section in providers.md
Verified end-to-end against api.openrouter.ai: at score=0.65 we land on a
mid-tier coder, at omission we get the strongest. Score is silently dropped
on any model other than openrouter/pareto-code, so it's safe to leave set.
Pass session_id through to provider profile build_api_kwargs_extras so
the OpenRouter profile can attach an xAI cache-affinity header
(x-grok-conv-id: <session-id>) for x-ai/grok-* models. xAI prompt
cache requires server affinity via this header — without it the cache
is poisoned and Grok prompt-cache hit rates drop dramatically on
multi-turn sessions.
Carve-out of #22708 by Ninso112. The original PR bundled a /diff
slash command, a zsh completion fix (already on main via #22802),
and holographic memory null-guards. This salvage keeps just the
Grok header work — small, targeted, and well-tested. Other
contributors and changes preserved for separate review.
Closes#22705.
Add a configurable notifications mode for the Telegram platform adapter
that controls which messages trigger push notifications.
- display.platforms.telegram.notifications: "all" (default) | "important"
- HERMES_TELEGRAM_NOTIFICATIONS env var override
- In "important" mode, all sends use disable_notification=True except:
- Approvals (send_exec_approval) and slash confirmations
- Final response messages (metadata["notify"]=True)
- Zero overhead in default "all" mode
- Zero impact on non-Telegram platforms
Closes#22771
acp_command / acp_args descriptions previously primed the model to
populate them — "Per-task ACP command override (e.g. 'copilot')" —
even when no ACP CLI was installed. Models with weaker schema-following
discipline would set them and the spawn would fail.
Add explicit "Do NOT set unless the user has explicitly told you"
guidance at both the top-level acp_command and the per-task override.
Strengthen acp_args to mention it's empty unless acp_command is set.
Adds 2 tests pinning the descriptions.
Note: this is a cosmetic prompt-engineering fix — the params remain
exposed in the schema. The fully-correct fix is to gate them behind
a config flag or runtime ACP-CLI detection so the schema only emits
them when an ACP harness is available. Tracked as a follow-up; this
PR ships the low-cost stopgap.
Salvage of #22680 (delegate schema only). The original PR also
bundled unrelated fixes for #22548, #21944, #22150 — those
need separate PRs since #22548 and #21944 are already addressed
on main (#22780 + #22798 in flight) and #22150 deserves its own
review.
Closes#22013.
Two co-located fixes:
1. agent/model_metadata.py: bump hy3-preview static fallback from
256000 to 262144 (256 * 1024) to match OpenRouter live metadata
so cache and offline both agree (issue #22268).
2. tests/hermes_cli/test_tencent_tokenhub_provider.py: replace the
exact-value change-detector (assert ctx == 256000) with an
invariant assertion (registered + >= 4096). Per AGENTS.md
'Don't write change-detector tests': pinning the upstream-controlled
context length is exactly the test class the rule forbids — it
breaks every time the provider bumps the published value, with
zero behavioral coverage gained.
Salvage of #22574 with a redirect on the test approach. The
contributor's diff bumped the integer and added a SECOND
change-detector pinning DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS[hy3-preview] == 262144,
which would re-break on the next published bump. We instead delete
the change-detector entirely and assert the relationship.
Closes#22268.
Problem
-------
`hermes doctor` ran two health checks for Anthropic: a dedicated one
with the correct `x-api-key` + `anthropic-version` headers, and a
generic Bearer-auth one driven by the pluggable `ProviderProfile` for
"anthropic". The generic check called `https://api.anthropic.com/v1/models`
with `Authorization: Bearer ...`, which Anthropic answers with HTTP 404,
producing a noisy duplicate warning even when the dedicated check passed.
Root cause
----------
`hermes_cli/doctor.py:_build_apikey_providers_list` deduplicated profiles
against a `_known_canonical` set built from the static list (Z.AI/GLM,
Kimi, DeepSeek, …). Providers with their own dedicated check above the
generic loop (Anthropic, OpenRouter, Bedrock) were not in that set, so
their profiles were appended and ran a second, broken check.
Fix
---
Add `{"anthropic", "openrouter", "bedrock"}` to the skip set, and
also skip profiles whose aliases match any of those names (e.g.
`claude`, `claude-oauth` → anthropic).
Tests
-----
tests/hermes_cli/test_doctor_dedicated_provider_skip.py:
- test_build_apikey_providers_list_skips_dedicated_check_providers:
asserts the assembled list does not contain anthropic, openrouter,
or bedrock entries.
- test_build_apikey_providers_list_includes_non_dedicated_providers:
sanity guard that legitimate providers (DeepSeek, Z.AI/GLM) survive.
Both confirmed via stash-verify (fail pre-fix with anthropic/openrouter
leaking, pass post-fix).
Fixes#22346
ALTER TABLE calls inside _migrate_add_optional_columns were guarded by a
snapshot of PRAGMA table_info taken at function entry. When the gateway
dispatcher opens the kanban DB twice per tick (once in _tick_once_for_board
and once via init_db's discard-and-reconnect path), a second connection can
run the same migration before the first one commits, causing:
sqlite3.OperationalError: duplicate column name: consecutive_failures
This crashed the dispatcher on every first tick after a gateway restart
(subsequent ticks succeeded because the columns were then present).
Fix: introduce _add_column_if_missing() which wraps ALTER TABLE in a
try/except that swallows OperationalError whose message contains
'duplicate column name'. All ALTER TABLE calls in
_migrate_add_optional_columns are routed through this helper.
Closes#21708
DeepSeek V4 Pro returns thinking content as typed blocks inside the
content array rather than as a top-level reasoning_content field:
[{"type": "thinking", "thinking": "..."}, {"type": "output", ...}]
_extract_reasoning only handled content as a plain string, so the
thinking text was silently dropped. On the next turn the session was
replayed without the thinking block, causing:
HTTP 400: The content[].thinking in the thinking mode must be
passed back to the API.
Fix: when content is a list and no structured reasoning field was
found, scan for items with type=='thinking' and accumulate their
'thinking' (or 'text') value into reasoning_parts. Structured fields
(reasoning, reasoning_content, reasoning_details) still take priority
so existing provider behaviour is unchanged.
Closes#21944
skills/media/youtube-content/scripts/fetch_transcript.py and
optional-skills/productivity/memento-flashcards/scripts/youtube_quiz.py

both skills fail on first invocation with:

163/NetEase IMAP servers reject every UID SEARCH/FETCH with `BYE Unsafe
Login` unless the client first identifies itself via the RFC 2971 ID
command after LOGIN. Without this, the email gateway logs in OK but
then fails on the very first poll and the connection is torn down.
Send the ID payload best-effort after both `imap.login()` sites
(`EmailAdapter.connect` and `_fetch_new_messages`). Failures are
swallowed at debug level so non-supporting IMAP servers (Gmail,
Outlook, Fastmail, Yahoo, etc.) keep working unchanged.
Closes#22271
Problem: `_get_cloud_provider()` set `_cloud_provider_resolved = True`
before resolution. If credentials were briefly unavailable on the first
call (e.g. a managed Nous Portal token mid-refresh), the resolver pinned
the entire process to local mode forever, even after credentials
self-healed seconds later.
Root cause: bookkeeping was set up-front, so any code path that fell
through to `return _cached_cloud_provider` (config read failure, no
credentials yet, explicit-provider instantiation failure) committed the
transient `None` to the cache permanently.
Fix: invert the bookkeeping. `_cloud_provider_resolved = True` is now
set only when (a) the user explicitly chose `cloud_provider: local`, or
(b) a provider was successfully resolved. All transient `None` paths
return without poisoning the cache, so the next call retries. Explicit
provider instantiation failures now log at warning level with stack
trace so operators can diagnose them.
Tests: 5 new cases in tests/tools/test_browser_cloud_provider_cache.py
covering explicit local, successful resolution, no-credentials-yet,
config read failure, and explicit provider instantiation failure.
Stash-verify confirmed the 3 transient-None tests fail without the fix.
All 320 existing browser tests still green.
Closes#22324
`fetch_models_dev()` is on the hot path of every `AIAgent.__init__`
(via `context_compressor → get_model_context_length`). The previous
policy was "always try network first, only fall back to disk if
network fails," so every fresh `hermes chat` / `hermes gateway` /
batch / cron process paid 250-500 ms re-fetching a 2 MB JSON registry
that was already on disk from earlier runs.
Add a stage 2 between in-mem and network: if
`models_dev_cache.json` exists and its mtime is younger than the
existing `_MODELS_DEV_CACHE_TTL` (1 hour, same TTL the in-mem cache
already uses), load from disk and skip the network call.
The in-mem TTL is anchored to the disk file's age, so a 50-min-old
cache stays in-memory for only 10 more minutes — no surprise
extension of staleness window.
Invariants preserved:
- `force_refresh=True` still always hits the network and only falls
back to disk on failure (`hermes config refresh` semantics).
- Missing disk cache → fall through to network (first-ever run).
- Stale disk cache (mtime > TTL) → fall through to network.
- Negative file age (clock skew) → fall through to network.
- Network failure → existing stage-4 stale-disk fallback unchanged.
Measured impact (3-run medians, 9950X3D, fresh process per run):
fetch_models_dev cold: 256 → 17 ms (-93%)
hermes chat -q wall: 4.00 → 3.73 s (-7% median)
3.99 → 3.60 s (-10% min)
The chat-end-to-end win is bounded below by API latency variance, but
the fetch_models_dev microbenchmark is the cleanest signal: 239 ms
shaved off every fresh-process agent construction.
Win compounds with the previous perf PRs:
#22681 google_chat lazy-load
#22766 doctor parallel + IMDS off
#22790 gateway.platforms PEP 562
Tests: all 30 `tests/agent/test_models_dev.py` pass (added 4 new ones
covering the new disk-cache-first path, force_refresh override, stale
disk fallback, and missing-disk-cache fall-through). Full `tests/agent/`
suite: 2560 passed, 0 failed.
The is_xai_responses branch only sent include=[reasoning.encrypted_content]
without forwarding the resolved reasoning_effort. Other Responses providers
(OpenAI, GitHub) already get effort forwarded — this aligns the xAI path.
Without this, agent.reasoning_effort is silently dropped on the xAI direct
path, making Hermes unable to control reasoning depth on grok-4.x via
api.x.ai. Tests added to TestCodexBuildKwargs cover effort passthrough,
disabled state, and minimal-clamp parity with non-xAI.
The xAI image-gen provider was DOA from PR #14765 onward — every request
422'd because the resolution param was being mapped to '1024'/'2048' but
xAI's API expects the literal strings '1k'/'2k'. PR #18678 fixed the
mapping; this test asserts the wire payload carries the literal so the
regression cannot recur silently.
Returning users who enabled '🖱️ Computer Use (macOS)' via 'hermes tools'
saw '✓ Saved configuration' but no install — cua-driver was never on
PATH and the toolset failed at first use. Two compounding causes:
1. _toolset_needs_configuration_prompt fell through to _toolset_has_keys,
which returned True for any provider with empty env_vars. cua-driver
has no env vars, so the gate skipped _configure_toolset entirely and
_run_post_setup('cua_driver') never ran.
2. No stable CLI entry-point existed for re-running the install when
the picker no-op'd it (e.g. when toggling the toolset off+on inside
one picker session, where 'added' is empty).
Changes:
- hermes_cli/tools_config.py: add _POST_SETUP_INSTALLED registry
mapping post_setup keys to installed-state predicates. The gate
now returns True when any visible provider has a registered
post_setup whose predicate fails. cua_driver is the only opt-in
for now; other post_setup hooks keep their existing behaviour.
- hermes_cli/main.py: add 'hermes computer-use install' and
'hermes computer-use status' as a stable docs target. install
reuses the same _run_post_setup('cua_driver') path that the
picker invokes; status reports whether cua-driver is on PATH.
- tools/computer_use/cua_backend.py: install hint now points users
at 'hermes computer-use install' first.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/computer-use.md: document the
new command as the primary install path.
- website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md: catalog 'hermes
computer-use' alongside 'hermes tools'.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_post_setup_gating.py: regression coverage
for the gate predicate (missing -> setup forced, installed ->
setup skipped, broken predicate -> non-blocking, unregistered
keys -> behaviour unchanged).
Fixes#22737. Reported by @f-trycua.
_try_activate_fallback() walked the chain by index without comparing
the candidate entry against the currently-failing backend. So a
misconfigured chain that listed the same provider+model as the primary,
or two custom_providers entries pointing at the same shim URL, would
loop the same failure 3x for the same backend.
After the fix, advance() skips:
- entries where (provider, model) match the current agent's
- entries with a base_url + model matching the current backend
(catches two custom_providers names pointing at the same shim)
Recursing through self._try_activate_fallback() continues to the next
chain entry; if everything matches, returns False and the caller
moves on without retrying the same broken path.
3 regression tests covering same-provider-same-model skip, same-base_url-
same-model skip, and the all-self-matching-returns-False exhaustion path.
Closes#22548 (the Hermes-side portion). The 120s timeout itself in
the downstream claude-cli shim is a deployment concern documented in
that issue's wherewolf87 comment.
Native Windows, WSL, SSH sessions, and Windows Terminal all send
Ctrl+Enter as bare LF (c-j). Hermes was binding c-j as submit on
every POSIX platform, so Ctrl+Enter submitted instead of inserting
a newline on those terminals. Reported in #22379.
Add _preserve_ctrl_enter_newline() predicate that detects the
environments where Ctrl+Enter must produce a newline (sys.platform
== 'win32', SSH_CONNECTION/SSH_CLIENT/SSH_TTY env, WT_SESSION,
WSL_DISTRO_NAME, /proc/version 'microsoft' marker). Gate the
c-j-as-submit binding off in those environments and gate the
c-j-as-newline handler on. Local POSIX TTYs without those markers
(docker exec, plain ssh from a Mac) keep c-j as submit so plain
Enter still works on thin PTYs.
Add install_ctrl_enter_alias() in hermes_cli/pt_input_extras.py
mapping the three CSI-u / modifyOtherKeys variants of Ctrl+Enter
('\x1b[13;5u', '\x1b[27;5;13~', '\x1b[27;5;13u') to the
(Escape, ControlM) tuple Alt+Enter produces. This lets Kitty /
mintty / xterm-with-modifyOtherKeys users over SSH get a Ctrl+Enter
newline through the existing Alt+Enter handler.
9 new tests + extended existing test_lf_enter_binds_to_submit_handler_posix
to cover bare-local vs SSH branches.
Closes#22379.
Non-streaming /v1/chat/completions wrapped any AIAgent result \u2014 including
partial/failed runs \u2014 as a successful 200 with finish_reason='stop' and
the internal failure string substituted into message.content. API
clients had no way to distinguish 'agent answered: X' from
'agent crashed and the X you see is its error message'.
After the fix:
- completed: True \u2192 200 finish_reason='stop' (unchanged)
- partial + truncated text \u2192 200 finish_reason='length' + hermes extras
- partial + no text / failed \u2192 502 OpenAI error envelope (SDKs raise)
- other failures \u2192 200 finish_reason='error' + hermes extras
Adds X-Hermes-Completed / X-Hermes-Partial / X-Hermes-Error headers
plus a 'hermes' extras object on partial responses for clients that
want the full picture.
Closes#22496.
Gateway creates a fresh AIAgent per inbound message in several common
scenarios: cache miss, idle eviction (1h TTL), config-signature
mismatch, process restart. A freshly-built AIAgent has
_turns_since_memory=0 and _user_turn_count=0, so the
memory.nudge_interval trigger ('_turns_since_memory >=
_memory_nudge_interval') can never be reached when these reconstructions
happen on roughly the cadence of the interval. A user can chat for hours
on Telegram without ever seeing a self-improvement review fire.
Reconstruct the counters from conversation_history at the top of
run_conversation(), right after the existing _hydrate_todo_store call.
Idempotent guard ('if self._user_turn_count == 0') means a cached agent
that already accumulated counters keeps them; only freshly-built agents
hydrate. Modulo arithmetic preserves the original 1-in-N cadence rather
than firing a review immediately on resume.
7 regression tests pinning the contract (mid-cycle history, modulo wrap,
idempotency, zero-interval skip, role==user filtering, production-code
anchor).
Closes#22357.
Operator-controlled HERMES_PROFILE values were rendered as
'**${author}** (${ts}):' — markdown bold with no provenance prefix.
Worker comment bodies render directly underneath. A misleading
profile name like 'hermes-system' or 'operator' could be misread by
the next worker as a system directive above attacker-influenced
content (confused-deputy primitive gated on operator misconfig).
The LLM-controlled author-forgery surface was already closed in
#22435 (author removed from KANBAN_COMMENT_SCHEMA). This is
defense-in-depth: render with an explicit 'comment from worker
`<author>` at <ts>:' prefix so even 'hermes-system' resolves to
'comment from worker `hermes-system` at ...' — parseable as
worker-comment metadata, not a system directive. Strip backticks
from author so they can't break out of the fence.
Update test_build_worker_context_caps_comments to count by body
regex since the rendered author line now also starts with
'comment '.
Closes#22452.
When session_id rotates (e.g. /new), commit_memory_session was firing
MemoryManager.on_session_end but skipping ContextEngine.on_session_end.
Engines that accumulate per-session state (LCM-style DAGs, summary
stores) leaked that state from the rotated-out session into whatever
continued under the same compressor instance.
Mirror the call shutdown_memory_provider already makes — same
lifecycle moment, same hook contract ("real session boundaries (CLI
exit, /reset, gateway expiry)"). /new is a real boundary for the old
session_id; providers keep their state but the rotated-out session_id
is done.
6 regression tests covering both-hooks-fire, no-memory-manager,
no-context-engine, both failure-tolerant paths.
Closes#22394.

analysis (later 'import pytest' made pytest local everywhere in the
function) and caused UnboundLocalError. Drop the now-redundant
in-function importorskip calls and rely on the module-level guard.
The github-pr-workflow skill wraps the URL in double-quotes
('curl -H ... "https://api.github.com/..."'), which the original
allowlist regex (\s+https://api...) did not match. Without this,
the bundled github-pr-workflow skill is still blocked at every
cron tick despite #22605's fix landing for the bare-URL form.
Make the leading quote optional and add a regression test pinning
both single- and double-quoted forms.
Problem:
After `hermes profile use NAME`, the gateway (started via systemd with
HERMES_HOME=/root/.hermes hardcoded) ignores the active profile and
always runs as the Default profile. WebUI, Telegram, and all non-CLI
platforms are affected.
Root cause:
_apply_profile_override() contained an early-return guard:
if profile_name is None and os.environ.get("HERMES_HOME"):
return # trust the inherited value
The intent was to let child processes inherit their parent's profile via
HERMES_HOME without redundantly re-reading active_profile. But
systemd also sets HERMES_HOME — to the hermes root (/root/.hermes),
not a profile directory — so the guard fired and silently skipped the
active_profile check. The user's `hermes profile use NAME` write to
~/.hermes/active_profile was never seen by the gateway process.
Fix:
Only skip the active_profile check when HERMES_HOME is already a
profile directory, identified by its immediate parent directory being
named "profiles" (e.g. ~/.hermes/profiles/coder or
/opt/data/profiles/coder). When HERMES_HOME points to a root
directory (parent name != "profiles"), continue to read active_profile.
Tests:
- test_hermes_home_at_root_with_active_profile_is_redirected: the
bug scenario — HERMES_HOME=/root/.hermes + active_profile=coder →
HERMES_HOME must be redirected to .../profiles/coder.
Stash-verified: FAILS without fix, PASSES with fix.
- test_hermes_home_already_profile_dir_is_trusted: child-process
inheritance contract unchanged — .../profiles/coder is trusted as-is.
- test_hermes_home_unset_reads_active_profile: classic path unchanged.
- test_hermes_home_unset_default_profile_no_redirect: "default" still
produces no redirect.
4/4 tests green.
Closes#22502.
When a Telegram user replies using the native quote feature to select
only part of a prior message, _build_message_event was injecting the
ENTIRE replied-to message into reply_to_text via
message.reply_to_message.text/caption. python-telegram-bot exposes
the user-selected substring as message.quote (TextQuote.text); we now
prefer that and fall back to the full replied-to text only when no
native quote is present.
The agent-visible "[Replying to: \"...\"]" prefix can otherwise expand
the user's narrow quote into the full prior message, causing the agent
to act on unrelated actionable-looking text the user did not select
(e.g. multi-item briefings where the user quotes one bullet but the
prefix injects every bullet). Falls back cleanly when message.quote
is absent (PTB <21 or replies that don't quote a substring).
Fixes#22619

Resolve git via shutil.which with POSIX and Git-for-Windows fallbacks before clone and pull so Dashboard/API installs do not misreport Git as missing.
Add regression tests for the resolver and pull subprocess invocation.
When platform_toolsets[<platform>] contains both a composite (e.g.
hermes-cli) and at least one configurable opt-in (e.g. spotify), the
has_explicit_config branch in _get_platform_tools silently dropped the
composite, leaving sessions with only the configurable + plugin tools
and no native tools (terminal, file, web, browser, memory, etc.).
Mirror the else-branch's subset inference for composites that sit
alongside the configurables, but apply _DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS only to the
implicit expansion so user-listed default-off toolsets (spotify,
discord) survive.
The delegate_task tool description hardcoded 'default 3' / 'default 2' for
max_concurrent_children / max_spawn_depth, which misled the model on any
install that raised these limits — the schema text said 'default 3' even
when the user had set max_concurrent_children=15 / max_spawn_depth=3, so
the model would self-cap at 3 and never use the headroom.
Make the description dynamic. ToolEntry gains an optional
dynamic_schema_overrides callable; registry.get_definitions() merges its
output on top of the static schema before returning it. delegate_tool
registers a builder that reads the current delegation.* config and emits:
- 'up to N items concurrently for this user' (N = max_concurrent_children)
- 'Nested delegation IS enabled / OFF for this user (max_spawn_depth=N)'
- 'orchestrator children can themselves delegate up to M more level(s)'
- 'orchestrator_enabled=false' when the kill switch is set
The model_tools cache key already includes config.yaml mtime+size, so
edits to delegation.* in config invalidate the cached tool definitions
without an explicit hook. CLI_CONFIG staleness within a process is a
pre-existing limitation of _load_config and out of scope here.
Static description / tasks.description / role.description in
DELEGATE_TASK_SCHEMA are placeholders so module import doesn't trigger
cli.CLI_CONFIG load before the test conftest can redirect HERMES_HOME.
Enforce the parent-completion invariant at claim_task (the single
ready->running chokepoint) and re-gate unblock_task so blocked->ready
only fires when parents are done. Prevents child tasks from running
ahead of in-progress parents under the create-then-link race.
Also adds a stress test that races concurrent create+link against
hammered claim_task and asserts no child runs while any parent is undone.

Plugin authors had no easy way to figure out why their plugin wasn't
loading — failures were buried in agent.log at WARNING and skip reasons
(disabled, not enabled, depth cap, exclusive) were DEBUG-only and
invisible by default.
Set HERMES_PLUGINS_DEBUG=1 to attach a stderr handler at DEBUG to the
hermes_cli.plugins logger only. Surfaces:
- which directories were scanned + manifest counts per source
- per manifest: resolved key, name, kind, source, on-disk path
- skip reasons (disabled, not enabled, exclusive, depth cap, no register)
- per load: tools/hooks/slash/CLI commands the plugin registered
- full traceback on YAML parse failure (exc_info on the existing warning)
- full traceback on register() exceptions, pointing at the plugin author's line
Env var off (default) → zero new stderr output, same as before.
Touches only hermes_cli/plugins.py + a doc section in the plugin-build
guide + an entry in the env-vars reference. 3 new tests lock the
attach/idempotent/no-attach behavior.
