* test(desktop): e2e test for interim assistant message preservation (#65919)
Adds a Playwright E2E test that reproduces the fix from PR #65919 across
all three layers (agent core → tui_gateway → desktop renderer). The mock
inference server is upgraded with a multi-turn scripted response that
exercises several interleaved patterns:
1. text + tool_call → should produce an interim message
2. text + tool_call → another interim message
3. no text + tool_call → NO interim (no visible text alongside tools)
4. text + tool_call → another interim message
5. final answer (stop) → message.complete, different from all interims
Two describe blocks exercise display.interim_assistant_messages both on
(default) and off:
- ON: all interim texts + the final answer visible in the transcript
- OFF: only the final answer visible, all interim texts wiped
Also fixes a footgun: test:e2e now runs `npm run build` as a pretest
hook so the renderer dist/ is always fresh. Previously, running
`npx playwright test` locally would silently load a stale dist/ that
predated renderer fixes — the python backend ran from source (had the
fix) but the renderer was frozen in an old bundle. CI already built
fresh, so the explicit build step there is removed to avoid duplication.
* test(desktop): e2e sidebar states — background dot, subagent, cross-session
Add sidebar-states.spec.ts with three E2E tests exercising the desktop
sidebar's session dot states driven by real gateway events:
1. Background process dot appears during a terminal(background=true)
call and disappears after auto-dismiss; subagent (delegate_task)
runs concurrently; final answer is visible in the transcript.
2. Background dot remains visible while a subagent runs concurrently
(longer sleep 5 background process so the dot is catchable).
3. Cross-session dot transition: start a turn with a background process,
wait for the turn to complete, open a new session, then verify the
original session's dot transitions from 'background running' to
'finished — unread' when the background process exits.
The mock server gains SIDEBAR_SCRIPT and SIDEBAR_CROSS_SCRIPT trigger
keywords that return tool_calls for terminal(background=true) and
delegate_task — the agent executes these for real (real background
process, real subagent), so the tests assert against genuine gateway
events rather than mocked UI state.
Verified: 3 passed (1.2m) under cage headless wlroots.
* test(desktop): e2e tests for tile-unread bug (tab passes, split fails)
Two scenarios for the tile-unread bug where a session that finishes
while visible on-screen gets the green 'finished unread' dot even
though the user is looking right at it.
The unread check in handleTransition (session-states.ts:174) only
compares against $selectedStoredSessionId and ignores $sessionTiles,
so a session visible in a tile gets marked unread even though it's
on screen.
1. TAB (hidden, PASSES): ⌃-click opens the session as a stacked tab
that is NOT visible on screen. The unread dot IS correct here —
the user isn't looking at it.
2. SPLIT (visible, FAILS): drag the session row to the workspace's
right edge to create a side-by-side split tile. Both sessions are
visible on screen. The unread dot is WRONG — the session is visible
in the split tile, so it should not be marked 'unread'. This test
is RED until the fix lands.
Also adds explicit page.screenshot() calls at key assertion points in
sidebar-states.spec.ts so the trace viewer has full-res captures of the
sidebar dot states during the test.
* test(desktop): cover compression and queued stop lifecycle
Add real desktop E2E coverage for session compression continuation and
queue parking after an explicit Stop. Extend the mock server with a
blocking scripted turn and submitted-prompt assertions.
* test(desktop): cover busy composer submit routing
Replace the invalid queued-stop E2E scenario: plain text redirects a busy
turn rather than entering the queue. Add focused submit-routing coverage for
plain text, slash commands, attachments, explicit Stop, and idle submission.
Keep a live session projection from adding its user turn when the latest
persisted row already represents that same inflight prompt. Add real Electron
coverage for fast and cold resume with idle and background-inference sessions.
* test(desktop): e2e for warm-route resume render jitter
Pre-seeds a 32-message session into state.db, boots the app, does a
cold resume (populates warm cache), navigates away, then clicks back
(warm resume). A MutationObserver + innerHTML-length poll detects
whether the transcript is re-rendered after the initial warm-cache
paint — the jitter bug where syncSessionStateToView fires twice
(warm cache paint, then session.activate RPC reconcile).
* fix(desktop): warm-route resume jitter from double setMessages
The warm resume path in resumeSession() calls syncSessionStateToView
twice: once for the warm cache paint, then again after the
session.activate RPC reconciles messages. The second call created new
message objects via toChatMessages (different references, same content),
and flushPendingViewState's sameMessageList guard used reference
equality per slot — so it always failed and setMessages fired a second
time, causing a visible transcript re-render.
Replace sameMessageList (reference equality) with chatMessageArraysEquivalent
(deep content comparison: id, role, parts, pending, error, etc.). This
was already used by the cold path's fast-path guard; the flush guard
was the last holdout using shallow reference equality.
Also updates the e2e test to use textContent polling on the first
message element (instead of innerHTML on the full viewport) to avoid
false positives from metadata-only DOM changes.
* test(desktop): e2e for warm resume after background inference
Extract the render counter (MutationObserver + text-content poll) and
assertion into reusable helpers. Add a second test that sends a message,
waits for the mock response to complete, navigates away, then warm-
resumes — verifying the warm cache already has the completed turn from
message.complete events and no second paint occurs.
The input fix's sibling, hit immediately after: the composer was themed but
AGENT text went black-on-black the same way. Root cause is the class, not
the call site — markdown body, borders, and every token rendered without an
explicit color falls back to the terminal's DEFAULT foreground, which
belongs to the HOST profile's polarity, not the skin's. A dark skin on a
light terminal repaints the backdrop via OSC-11 while thousands of
default-fg cells stay near-black.
Chasing every <Text> is unwinnable. Instead own the default itself: when a
skin authors a background (the existing opt-in), paint the default
foreground from the resolved theme's text color via OSC-10. Every unthemed
token — present and future — re-bases onto the skin atomically, exactly
like the background.
terminalModes: the OSC-11 slot generalizes to defaultColorSlot(10|11) —
same paint/clear/exit-restore contract, tracked per slot, so a skinless
session still never touches the terminal. reapplyTheme repaints the fg too:
polarity flips swap paired palettes, moving the text tone while the
background stays.
Tests: slot contract runs table-driven over both OSC codes; handler test
pins the invariant (default fg == theme text; dropping the background
releases both defaults). Suite 1344✓, typecheck/lint/prettier clean.
Live-repaint's composer gap: flip a light terminal to a dark skin and the
input goes black-on-black. The placeholder was already explicit truecolor
(theme muted), but TYPED text rendered with no color at all — the terminal's
default foreground — in both paint paths:
- the Ink render (<Text wrap="wrap">{rendered}</Text>, no color), and
- the fast-echo bypass, which writes raw cells straight to stdout.
The skin owns the background (OSC-11) but the default fg still belongs to
the host terminal's polarity, so any skin/terminal polarity mismatch made
input invisible. Every other transcript line already paints
theme.color.text (the completed inputBuf rows directly above the composer).
Give TextInput a color prop and paint both paths with it: the Ink <Text>
(chalk re-opens the outer color after the placeholder chips' embedded [39m
closes; INV cursor/selection cells never touch fg) and the fast-echo write
via colorizeEcho — same explicit-truecolor-only rule as colorizeHint, so
the bypass cell can't flash terminal-default before the next frame. All six
TextInput sites (composer, prompts, masked, billing ×2, session switcher)
pass theme text; no color ⇒ passthrough, unthemed inputs keep the terminal
default.
Tests: colorizeEcho SGR wrap + passthrough contracts; full ui-tui suite
1338✓; typecheck clean.
Removes Homebrew and PyPI wheel/sdist as Hermes distribution paths while
preserving the supported source, Docker, and Nix workflows.
Changes:
- Removes the Homebrew formula, PyPI publish workflow, sdist manifest
(MANIFEST.in), and wheel/sdist release-attachment logic from scripts/release.py.
- Keeps setuptools metadata and entry points required by editable installs
and Docker/Nix builds, but adds a setup.py guard that rejects wheel/sdist
builds outside a sealed Nix derivation (HERMES_NIX_BUILD=1).
- Removes pip/Homebrew install detection, PyPI update checks, the pip
self-update path, the deprecation-banner state, the postinstall subcommand,
wheel data-directory fallbacks in agent/i18n.py and hermes_constants.py,
and the ACP Registry manifest/version-lockstep release logic.
- Adds /nix/store/ path detection so `nix run` / `nix profile install`
installs (which don't set HERMES_MANAGED) are correctly identified as
"nix" rather than falling through to "git"/"unknown".
- Retired install-method values ("pip", "homebrew") in existing
.install_method stamps (both code-scoped and home-scoped) are ignored by
the allowlist reader and fall through to "unknown" instead of resurrecting
a retired enum value.
- Updates Nix packaging to ship bare runtime data (locales, optional-mcps)
through store symlinks and wrapper env vars instead of wheel data-files.
- Removes the ACP Registry manifest/icon and their version-lockstep tests.
- Deletes or rewrites packaging, pip-update, Homebrew, and ACP Registry
tests; adds parametrized coverage for the packaging build guard covering
BOTH sdist and wheel paths (the guards live in separate cmdclass entries
— a passing sdist test proves nothing about the wheel path).
- Updates installation/platform documentation and related user-facing copy.
- Adjusts the supply-chain scan so deleted install-hook files do not trigger
a finding, while additions or modifications still require the existing
ci-reviewed label gate.
Supported installation paths (unchanged):
- git installer (install.sh)
- Docker
- Nix/NixOS
- editable development installs (uv sync, uv pip install -e ., pip install -e .)

* fix(desktop): route /compress through session.compress RPC with transcript replacement
Salvages #44462, #53755, and #68218 into a single canonical fix for the
desktop /compress cluster.
The desktop routed /compress through slash.exec, which sends it to the
_SlashWorker subprocess. Compressing a large session outlives both the
desktop's 30s WS timeout and the worker's 45s pipe timeout — the client
gives up, runExec's blanket catch swallows the error, and command.dispatch
surfaces a misleading "not a quick/plugin/skill command: compress" (#44456).
Even when compression succeeded via the _mirror_slash_side_effects path,
the desktop never received the post-compress message list, so summarized
bubbles stayed on screen forever — /compress looked like a no-op.
This change routes /compress to the dedicated session.compress RPC (the TUI's
path), combining the best of all three PRs:
- 120s client timeout matching the TUI's HERMES_TUI_RPC_TIMEOUT_MS (#44462)
- Transcript replacement from the response `messages` via toChatMessages,
the same converter session.resume uses (#68218, teknium1 review on #44462)
- Session-isolation guard: updateSessionState only publishes for the active
runtime, so a late result after a session switch can't clobber the
foreground transcript (#53755, teknium1 review on #53755)
- Coalescing: dedup concurrent compress requests per session (#53755)
- Progress toast ("compressing context...") outside the transcript (#53755)
- Error unmasking in runExec: when slash.exec fails and command.dispatch only
adds "not a quick/plugin/skill command" routing noise, surface the original
worker error instead (#44462)
- /compact alias + focus_topic forwarding

* feat(desktop): route slash commands with dedicated RPCs to those RPCs
Salvages #63513 — introduces a new `rpc` kind on DesktopCommandSurface so
commands with a first-class gateway @method handler bypass slash.exec /
command.dispatch entirely, and a `renderRpcResult` utility that shapes
each RPC's structured reply into readable transcript text.
Migrates 6 commands from exec() to rpc(...):
/agents → agents.list
/save → session.save
/status → session.status
/steer → session.steer
/stop → process.stop
/usage → session.usage
/compress stays as action('compress') — it needs transcript replacement
from the response `messages`, which the generic rpc path can't do (per
teknium1 review on #44462/#63513).
Also includes the json-rpc-gateway timeout message improvement: the error
now includes the configured timeout duration ("request timed out after 120s:
session.compress") so a user can tell whether the default 30s fired or a
per-call override.

* fix(desktop): preserve provider choice during config initialization
* fix(desktop): preserve slash command and host compression semantics
Keep commands whose CLI behavior exceeds their current RPC contracts on slash.exec.
Propagate the full compression timeout through compute-host control, return structured
host compression outcomes with metadata, and retain successful compression feedback
in the desktop transcript.
Add regressions for timeout forwarding, host aborts and metadata sync, structured host
control responses, command routing parity, and numeric stop counts.
* fix(desktop): harden compression state handling
Preserve the invoking stored-session binding for delayed compression results,
normalize replacement histories, and serialize provider selection. Stabilize
gateway platform tests and guard the desktop Git facade during renderer teardown.

The submit "session context drift" guard (regression 7acaff5ef / #54527,
partially fixed by 8c288760d and da52ffea1) aborted a prompt submission
whenever the selected stored id OR the route token changed mid-submit. Both
signals churn programmatically on a busy gateway, so on machines with
background streaming sessions, per-minute cron sessions, the Telegram surface,
or gateway-profile switches, essentially every send from a second chat aborted
silently: the optimistic message was dropped, the draft was left in the
composer, no error was shown, and prompt.submit never fired.
The false-positive churn sources were:
- selection null-resets — gateway-switch's setSelectedStoredSessionId(null)
on a gateway/profile switch or reconnect read as a switch away;
- search/hash-only route-token changes — overlays and side panels park state
in location.search/hash, so the pathname (the only part that selects a
chat) was unchanged yet the raw token differed;
- background-event active-ref retargets — createBackendSessionForSend's
3-prong check also watched activeSessionIdRef, which gateway events retarget
while other sessions stream (#47709 class), during a seconds-long
session.create round-trip.
New shared helper session-context-drift.ts reduces a route token to the chat it
targets (pathname only; the new-chat route is '__new__', non-chat routes null)
and reports drift only when selection or the routed chat moves to a DIFFERENT,
non-null chat that is not the submit's own target. Selection null-resets,
search/hash-only churn, and moves onto the submit target are no longer drift;
genuine user switches (click another chat, click New Session mid-submit) still
abort. Site A (submit.ts) routes all five guard points through the helper and
logs '[submit-drift-abort]' with a per-site phase; the post-create active-ref
check and baseline re-pin from 8c288760d are kept intact. Site B
(createBackendSessionForSend) drops the active-ref prong entirely — every real
switch retargets selection and route synchronously — and logs before closing
the orphaned session.

Live theme authoring's core loop — Hermes recolors the skin file it just
activated — repainted the TUI but not the GUI. The event path was fine
(post-#69533 the WS broadcast lands and ingestBackendSkin refreshes the
$backendThemes registry); the same-name apply guard also no-ops correctly
(it's what protects a manual desktop theme pick). The repaint was supposed
to come from the registry: the active theme IS that skin, its palette just
changed. But ThemeProvider memoized deriveTheme on [themeName, resolvedMode]
only, while deriveTheme reads the registry non-reactively via resolveTheme —
so the store update re-rendered the provider and handed back the stale
palette. Name switches repainted (themeName moves); recolors never did.
Add the theme stores (user/backend/registry) to the memo's deps — they are
deriveTheme's actual reactivity, same as the availableThemes memo directly
above. applyTheme is idempotent, and $backendThemes only publishes on a
real palette change, so no spurious repaints.
Tests: render ThemeProvider for real — activation applies; a same-name
recolor repaints (fails without the fix); an inactive-skin seed doesn't
touch the painted theme.
_emit and _broadcast_global_event were each building the JSON-RPC event
envelope — extract _event_frame and use it from both. Type the registry as
set[Transport] (protocol already imported), and cut comment bloat at the
call sites. No behavior change; suites stay green.
* chore(gitignore): ignore installer .install_method stamp
Salvage of #54855 by @drissman — rebased onto current main with root-scoped
rule and sister-marker comments alongside .update-incomplete.
Closes#66189
Root cause: scripts/install.sh writes <install>/.install_method but git
did not ignore it, so managed checkouts show ?? .install_method and
hermes update may autostash the untracked marker.
Fix: add /.install_method to .gitignore (repo-root only).
Verification: git check-ignore -v .install_method
* test(update): assert .install_method survives update autostash (#66189)
Add hermetic regression mirroring the .hermes-bootstrap-complete test:
adopt the real .gitignore, drop the installer .install_method stamp, run
the exact 'git stash push --include-untracked' the updater uses, and assert
the marker is neither swept nor reported dirty. Requested by hermes-sweeper
review on #67364.
Real-world failure from dogfooding the live-theme flow: display.skin was
already 'synthwave' in config, but the desktop never visibly applied it (the
activation event predated the WS transport fix / the connect). The desktop's
gateway.ready seed records the baseline WITHOUT painting (by design — never
stomp the persisted desktop theme on connect), so it believed it was synced.
Re-running 'hermes config set display.skin synthwave' then did nothing twice
over: the watcher signature (name, skin-file mtime) hadn't moved, so no
skin.changed fired; and even on an event, the desktop's name-equality guard
blocked the apply against the seeded baseline.
Two halves:
- hermes_cli: setting display.skin touches the named skin file so the
watcher signature always moves on an explicit set — a same-name re-affirm
now broadcasts skin.changed like any real move. Built-ins (no file) are
unaffected; a name switch already moves their signature.
- desktop: track whether the synced baseline was actually APPLIED vs merely
seeded at connect. A skin.changed matching a seed-only baseline is an
intentional apply and repaints; once applied, repeat same-name events stay
no-ops (protects a manual desktop-side theme switch from snap-back, incl.
across a reconnect re-seed).
When Codex returns 429 usage_limit_reached, Hermes persists the provider's
reset_at on the pool entry and freezes the credential until it elapses --
which can be days out for weekly windows. But the upstream window can
reopen EARLY: the user redeems a banked rate-limit reset (Codex CLI /
ChatGPT UI), upgrades their plan, or OpenAI resets the window. Hermes
never re-checked, so it kept erroring with 'Codex provider quota
exhausted (429); retry after Ns' until a manual re-auth rewrote the
tokens (issue #43747, externally-reset variant).
- hermes_cli/auth.py: add _probe_codex_quota_restored() -- a throttled
(5 min/token) GET of the Codex /usage endpoint; quota counts as
restored when every reported window is <100% used. Add
clear_codex_pool_quota_cooldowns() to lift 429/quota-shaped cooldowns
from persisted pool entries (DEAD and auth-shaped entries untouched).
- resolve_codex_runtime_credentials(): before surfacing a pool-only
cooldown as 'quota exhausted', probe upstream; on a positive probe
clear the cooldown and return the pool credential.
- agent/credential_pool.py: _available_entries() probes frozen
openai-codex entries (clear_expired path only) and unfreezes them when
upstream confirms the reset.
- agent/account_usage.py: a successful /usage reset redemption now
clears persisted pool cooldowns immediately.
Negative paths preserved: probe 429/exhausted/indeterminate keeps the
cooldown; read-only enumeration never probes; non-JWT tokens never
probe (no network in hermetic tests).
The cross-surface theme SDK's live-repaint relies on a gateway skin watcher
that polls config and emits skin.changed on any move. But that emit is
session-less and fires from a background thread, so write_json fell through
its (session-transport -> contextvar -> stdio) ladder to the module stdio
transport — which only reaches the stdio TUI (tee'd to the dashboard WS
publisher). WS clients (the desktop app, dashboard chat) never got it, so
'Hermes themes itself' repainted the CLI/TUI but not the GUI.
Add a live-transport registry (one entry per connected WS peer, maintained by
handle_ws) and a _broadcast_global_event primitive that fans session-less
announcements out to every connected client, falling back to write_json when
none are registered (stdio path unchanged). Route both skin.changed emits
(watcher + the /skin RPC) through it, so a skin switch from any surface
repaints all of them.
Backend-only; desktop already handles skin.changed and does not drop
session-less events.
Two narrow timing windows (reported by null-runner) silently downgraded a
mid-turn correction to a plain next-turn message on the desktop client:
- Turn-build window: a fresh turn flips running=True and builds the agent
asynchronously, so session["agent"] is briefly None. session.redirect
answered 4010 "unsupported", which the renderer's catch swallowed into a
lost follow-up. Queue the correction server-side instead and return
status="queued" — lossless, and honest about what happened.
- Stale runtime id after reconnect: session.redirect 404s on a sid the
gateway no longer maps. redirectPrompt now resumes the stored session and
retries once, mirroring stopPrompt, so a correction fired right after a
reconnect isn't dropped.
The desktop treats "queued" like "redirected": the correction reaches the
model either way, so it's recorded once as a real user message.
The zero-result fallback prefers messages_fts_cjk when built: exact
ranked token match for Latin runs unicode61 fused onto CJK, including
<3-char tokens the trigram leg can't recover.
A pure-Latin query (no CJK characters) routes to the unicode61
`messages_fts` table, whose tokenizer does not insert a boundary between
Latin letters and adjacent CJK characters. Content like "修改youer服务端" is
indexed as a single token, so `search_messages("youer")` returned zero
results even though the substring is present, and the Latin path had no
fallback.
Add a zero-result trigram fallback to the pure-Latin path: when the
unicode61 search misses, retry against the existing `messages_fts_trigram`
table, which matches substrings regardless of word boundaries. The fallback
is gated on `_trigram_available` and on every token being >=3 chars (the
trigram minimum), and only fires on a zero-result miss, so successful Latin
searches keep their unicode61 ranking unchanged.
The trigram query construction shared with the CJK path is extracted into a
`_run_trigram_search()` helper; the CJK branch is refactored to use it with
no behavior change.
Adds regression tests in tests/test_hermes_state.py::TestCJKSearchFallback.
A stray tsc run can emit foo.js next to foo.ts under apps/shared/src or
apps/desktop/src. .gitignore hides the artifact from git status, but Vite
resolves extensionless imports .js-before-.ts, so the renderer silently runs
the stale compiled copy.
tsc -b . --clean already knows the emit graph and deletes
matching outputs. Run it before vite in all dev scripts.
This bit for real: a Jul 16 artifact of websocket-url.js predated the #68250
getGatewayWsUrl contract change ({ ok, wsUrl } IPC result), so its old
'if (fresh) return fresh' handed the whole result object to new WebSocket(),
dialing ws://127.0.0.1:5174/[object%20Object] on every boot. The desktop app
could never connect, and the failure survived reboots and cache wipes because
the poison lived in src/.
JsonRpcGatewayClient.connect() now rejects non-ws:// URLs with a readable
error instead of letting new WebSocket() coerce an object into
[object%20Object], so any future contract skew fails diagnosably.
- Use the fork glyph for branch and a sine wave for read aloud (all one lib now)
- Extract compact "2h ago" into formatAgo() in lib/time.ts (+ ageDays locale string)
- Cover formatAgo with a unit test
Extract the open_preview emitter into a shared tools/desktop_ui bridge
(one gateway-injected sink, routed by HERMES_UI_SESSION_ID) and add a
second desktop-gated tool on top of it:
- focus_pane(chat|files|terminal|review|sessions) -> pane.reveal event.
The desktop runs each pane's own reveal path (revealDesktopPane table)
and only acts on the active window -- a background turn never moves the
user's focus (desktop AGENTS.md: offer, don't hijack).
open_preview now emits through the same bridge. Both tools are check_fn
on HERMES_DESKTOP (zero footprint elsewhere), sitting beside
read_terminal/close_terminal in _HERMES_CORE_TOOLS.
Deliberately not adding run_slash: letting the agent fire slash commands
mid-turn (/model, /new, /clear) fights prompt-cache + conversation
invariants.
Plain Enter (and the primary send button) while a turn is running now redirects
the live turn with the typed correction instead of queueing it — matching
Cursor's stop-and-correct. Removes the now-redundant steering-wheel button
(redirect is the default gesture) and teaches the primary button the `steer`
action. Attachments still queue; slash commands still run inline.
Update the CLI and messaging guides so the default `interrupt` mode reflects
the new behavior: a follow-up redirects the active turn (preserving displayed
reasoning and completed work, letting running tools finish at a safe boundary)
rather than hard-stopping it, with `/stop` still the explicit hard stop.
The default `busy_input_mode: interrupt` now redirects the live turn instead
of hard-stopping it and re-queuing a fresh turn, wired consistently across
every first-party surface via the shared core primitive.
- CLI, gateway (busy + PRIORITY paths), TUI (`_handle_busy_submit`), desktop
(`session.redirect` RPC), and ACP call `redirect()` when the agent advertises
`_supports_active_turn_redirect`, and fall back to the proven interrupt +
next-turn queue for older runtimes.
- Redirect is gated to plain text with no attachments: captioned or
attachment-bearing events (including adapters that classify unknown media as
`TEXT`) stay queued so media is never dropped.
- ACP `cancel()` records the interrupted prompt, sets its cancel event, and
hard-stops the agent while holding `runtime_lock`, closing the
cancel-then-correct ordering gap; connection I/O happens after the lock is
released.
- Desktop appends the correction as a real user transcript message so the live
view matches the durable history after reload.
- `/busy` help, onboarding hints, and the new `session.redirect` RPC describe
the redirect behavior; `/stop` remains the hard stop.
Add a desktop-gated open_preview tool so 'open cnn.com in the preview
pane' works. The tool (check_fn on HERMES_DESKTOP, zero footprint
elsewhere) emits a preview.open event through a gateway-injected emitter,
mirroring the close_terminal -> terminal.close bridge. The desktop
handles it in usePreviewRouting, normalizing the target and opening the
pane for the active session only -- a background turn never hijacks it.
Bare domains and localhost are coaxed into fetchable URLs (www.cnn.com ->
https://, localhost:3000 -> http://); file paths and schemes pass through
to the renderer's normalizer.
The Codex app-server runtime bypasses the main conversation loop and drives
its own subprocess turn, so it needs first-class hooks rather than the
OpenAI-loop interrupt path.
- `AIAgent.interrupt()` now forwards a hard stop to
`CodexAppServerSession.request_interrupt()`, and `redirect()` uses Codex's
native `turn/steer` protocol instead of cancelling the subprocess.
- `run_turn()` no longer clears an interrupt that arrived during
`ensure_started()`: a stop landing mid-startup is honored before `turn/start`,
and the interrupt event is cleared on every exit path.
- `run_codex_app_server_turn()` mirrors the loop finalizer's interrupt handoff
(surface `interrupted` / `interrupt_message`, then `clear_interrupt()`) on
both the normal and exception early-return paths, so a hard stop can't leave
`_interrupt_requested` stale for the next turn.
A follow-up sent while the model is still generating previously ended the
turn: Hermes kept only the visible partial text (reasoning was display-only),
cleared the loop, and replayed the message as a fresh next turn. If the
correction referred to something that only appeared in the thinking stream,
the model no longer had that context.
Add `AIAgent.redirect(text)`: a corrective interrupt distinct from a hard
stop. It cancels only the in-flight model request (not tool workers or child
agents), stashes the correction under a lock shared with `interrupt()` so a
concurrent `/stop` always wins, and lets the loop rebuild the same logical
iteration. `_apply_active_turn_redirect()` checkpoints the reasoning that was
actually shown to the user plus any visible partial text as an ordinary
assistant message, then appends the correction as a real user turn — never
replaying incomplete signed/encrypted provider reasoning, and keeping strict
role alternation and prompt-cache stability intact. During tool execution it
degrades to `steer()` so a running tool finishes at a safe boundary.
`_fire_reasoning_delta` now only records reasoning that a display callback
actually consumed, so `show_reasoning: false` never leaks hidden provider
thinking into the persisted transcript.
Since #65919 the live view seals each chunk of mid-turn assistant
commentary (message.interim) as its own finalized bubble. Every bubble
with visible text renders the hover action footer, so a tool-heavy turn
grew a copy/refresh bar under almost every paragraph — and the live
render didn't match rehydration, which merges the turn into one bubble.
Mark sealed interim bubbles with ChatMessage.interim, carry the flag
into the runtime message metadata (custom.interim), and skip the
AssistantFooter for them. The turn's final reply keeps the footer; a
previewed final that settles onto an interim bubble clears the mark so
the settled reply regains its actions. interim joins COMPARED_FIELDS /
chatMessagesEquivalent so flipping it repaints.
Also fix an id-collision flake this surfaced: stream/interim bubble ids
were Date.now()-only, so an interim seal and the next segment's first
delta in the same millisecond reused the id and the new segment appended
into the sealed bubble. Ids now include a monotonic sequence.
Follow-up for the salvaged #55800 idle-compaction commit:
- turn_context.py: treat a skipped _compress_context (per-session
compression lock held by another path, failure cooldown, anti-thrash
breaker, codex-native routing) as a strict no-op — only re-baseline
conversation_history and re-anchor current_turn_user_idx after a REAL
compaction. Also re-anchor the user-message index after idle compaction
(the PR predates the reanchor helper).
- hermes_cli/config.py: add idle_compact_after_seconds: 0 to
DEFAULT_CONFIG's compression block (the PR only had
cli-config.yaml.example).
- gateway/run.py: add the idle-compaction status wording to
_TELEGRAM_NOISY_STATUS_RE so the new 💤 message stays out of
human-facing chat surfaces (routine compaction is silent by design);
pin it in tests/gateway/test_telegram_noise_filter.py.
- docs: idle_compact_after_seconds in user-guide/configuration.md and
developer-guide/context-compression-and-caching.md parameter table.
- tests/agent/test_idle_compaction_lock_and_guards.py: end-to-end
coverage with a real AIAgent + SessionDB proving the idle path honors
the per-session compression lock (added after the PR), the persisted
failure cooldown, and the anti-thrash breaker, and that the lock is
released after an idle-triggered compaction.
