The "..." overflow that opens the profile manager (the only UI to edit a
profile's SOUL.md) was gated behind profiles.length > 1, so a user with
only the default profile couldn't edit its persona without first creating
a throwaway second profile. Render it unconditionally.
A binary @file: ref (PDF, docx, spreadsheet, …) expanded to a bare
"binary files are not supported" warning with no content. The model saw a
failure and gave up — e.g. a dropped PDF came back as a text note claiming the
type was unsupported, even though the file was staged on disk right next to it.
Inject an actionable content block instead: the path, mime type, size, and a
nudge to use its tools to read/convert/view the file (and explicitly not to tell
the user the type is unsupported). General across every binary type — not
PDF-specific. The file already resolves where the agent's tools run (local cwd
or the staged copy in a remote session workspace), so it can act on it directly.
* fix(state.db): recover from malformed sqlite_master so hidden sessions reappear
The corruption class behind "Desktop/Dashboard show no sessions while
hundreds of session files sit on disk" is a malformed sqlite_master — most
often a duplicate object row, e.g. two CREATE VIRTUAL TABLE messages_fts
entries — surfacing as:
sqlite3.DatabaseError: malformed database schema (messages_fts) -
table messages_fts already exists
SQLite parses the whole schema while preparing the FIRST statement on a
connection, so on this class every statement fails before it runs: PRAGMA
journal_mode (which is where SessionDB.__init__ actually trips, in
apply_wal_with_fallback, BEFORE _init_schema), PRAGMA integrity_check, and
even DROP TABLE. The only operations that still work are
PRAGMA writable_schema=ON plus direct sqlite_master surgery. A plain
FTS-index rebuild at the _init_schema layer therefore cannot reach or fix
this; the canonical sessions/messages rows are intact — only the derived
schema is broken.
Add a dedicated recovery that operates where the failure actually happens:
- hermes_state.repair_state_db_schema(): backs up the raw file first, then a
least-destructive ladder — (1) de-duplicate sqlite_master keeping the
lowest rowid per object (preserves the existing FTS index), escalating to
(2) drop every messages_fts* schema object + VACUUM and let the next open
rebuild the FTS index from messages. sessions/messages are never modified.
Plus is_malformed_db_error() to discriminate this class.
- SessionDB.__init__ auto-heals: on a malformed-schema open error it repairs
once (process-guarded against loops / concurrent web_server opens) and
reopens, so Desktop/Dashboard recover on their own instead of silently
showing "no sessions".
- hermes doctor --fix detects the malformed class and repairs it (reporting
the recovered session count + backup name).
- hermes sessions repair [--check-only] [--no-backup] runs on the raw file
path, since SessionDB() itself cannot open a malformed DB.
Supersedes #32589 and #33869: both targeted FTS corruption but gated their
repair behind statements (integrity_check / SELECT / DROP TABLE) that
themselves fail on this class, and neither addressed the apply_wal_with_fallback
open-time failure. Credit preserved via Co-authored-by.
Closes#33865.

Remote attachments read their bytes through the readFileDataUrl IPC, which is
hard-capped at 16MB and rejects with a raw "file is too large (N bytes; limit M
bytes)" string straight into the failure toast (helix4u review note on #43109).
Translate that into "<file> is too large to upload to the remote gateway (max
16 MB)", parsing the limit out of the message so it tracks the real cap. Applies
to both the image and non-image remote read paths; non-cap errors pass through
unchanged. Adds unit coverage for both.
The message-edit composer staged dropped OS files asynchronously with no
visible state, so confirming the edit before the upload resolved could send
the message without the gateway-side ref (helix4u review note on #43109).
Add a staging flag: while uploadOsDropRefs is in flight, show a small spinner
pill in the bubble and block submit (disabled send button + submitEdit guard)
so the edit can't outrace the ref insertion. New `attachingFile` i18n string
across en/zh/zh-hant/ja.
Two races in the drop-time eager upload:
- Resurrected chip: the success path used addComposerAttachment, which
re-appends when the id is gone, so a file removed mid-upload reappeared once
the upload resolved. Add updateComposerAttachment (update-only; no-op when the
chip was removed) and use it on both the eager success path and submit-time
sync.
- Duplicate upload: submit-time sync didn't join an eager upload still in
flight, so drop-then-Enter could fire file.attach twice and leave a duplicate
under .hermes/desktop-attachments/. Track in-flight eager uploads by id and
await the pending one before deciding to re-upload, reusing its gateway ref.
Tests: composer-store no-resurrect unit tests + a join-on-submit integration
test asserting a single file.attach.
Addresses @helix4u review on #43109.
Both jobs in tests.yml (`test` matrix and `e2e`) start from a cold uv
cache on every run and install deps with `uv pip install -e ".[all,dev]"`,
which re-resolves pyproject.toml ranges and rebuilds the editable install
each time.
Two changes:
1. Enable uv's official CI caching via setup-uv's `enable-cache: true`,
keyed on pyproject.toml + uv.lock, plus `uv cache prune --ci` to keep
the persisted cache small. Warm runs install from cache instead of
re-downloading/building wheels.
2. Replace the manual `uv venv` + `uv pip install -e` with
`uv sync --locked --python 3.11 --extra all --extra dev`. sync installs
the exact pinned set from uv.lock (and fails if the lock is stale vs
pyproject.toml), creating .venv itself. This is reproducible and, with a
warm cache, measurably faster than the editable pip install (~3-4x on the
steady-state install step locally). Downstream steps keep using
`source .venv/bin/activate`; sync writes .venv to the same path.
Follows the Astral-recommended pattern for uv in GitHub Actions:

The in-flight user bubble seeded image attachment refs as `@image:<localpath>`.
In remote-gateway mode that path lives on the desktop, not the gateway, so the
inline thumbnail fetch hit /api/media and 403'd ("Path outside media roots"),
flashing a fallback chip until submit uploaded the bytes.
Seed (and keep) image refs as the raw base64 preview data URL instead. It
renders inline via extractEmbeddedImages with zero network, and survives the
post-sync rewrite (the agent gets the bytes through the attached-image pipeline,
not this display ref) so the thumbnail no longer remounts/flashes. Non-image
refs are unchanged.
Adds optimisticAttachmentRef + unit coverage.
Finder/OS drops became `@file:/Users/...` refs that only resolve when the
gateway shares the local disk, so on a remote gateway non-image files
(PDF/CSV/Markdown/...) never reached the agent. Route OS drops through the
file.attach / image.attach_bytes upload pipeline — in-app project-tree and
gutter drags stay inline workspace-relative refs — across every drop surface:
the conversation area, the composer form, the contenteditable input, and the
message-edit composer (which still reproduced the bug).
Also:
- upload dropped files eagerly when a session exists, so the card shows a
spinner instead of stalling the send (images stay submit-time to avoid
racing their thumbnail write);
- round the attachment card and drop the monospace detail;
- render image previews from the bytes we already hold, so a pasted/dropped
screenshot shows its thumbnail and previews even when its only on-disk copy
is a transient path (the data URL is not persisted to localStorage).
Supersedes #38615, #41203.

The Anthropic picker returned the live /v1/models dump verbatim whenever
credentials were configured. Anthropic's API lags newly-routed curated
aliases (e.g. claude-fable-5, reachable on Anthropic before the models
endpoint enumerates it), so the curated entry vanished from the picker.
Merge curated _PROVIDER_MODELS["anthropic"] with the live catalog —
curated first, live-only appended, deduped — mirroring the OpenAI
curated-merge path. Live failure / no creds falls back to curated verbatim.
* docs(windows): correct native data dir to %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes
The Windows-native guide claimed a deliberate split where config, auth,
skills, and sessions live under %USERPROFILE%\.hermes. That is not what
the installer does: scripts/install.ps1 sets HERMES_HOME=%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes,
so data actually lives in %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes alongside the disposable
install (the hermes-agent\, git\, node\, bin\ subdirectories) — `hermes
config` confirms config.yaml/.env resolve there, not under %USERPROFILE%.
Update the data-layout table, the "split is deliberate" note, the env-var
and uninstall sections to describe the real layout: data and install share
the %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes root, reinstall only replaces hermes-agent\, and
a full wipe targets %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes (with %USERPROFILE%\.hermes kept
only as a legacy/WSL cleanup). Mention HERMES_HOME as the override knob.
* docs(windows): fix PATH + bin layout to match installer
The installer adds hermes-agent\venv\Scripts (where hermes.exe lives) to
User PATH and sets HERMES_HOME — not %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\bin. The \bin
dir holds Hermes's managed uv.exe, not a hermes.cmd shim. Correct the
install-step list and the data-layout table accordingly.
* fix(install): show real HERMES_HOME path in setup messages
The native Windows installer wrote config/env/skills under $HermesHome
(%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes) but its success messages claimed ~/.hermes,
which doesn't exist on native Windows. Print the actual paths so a new
user can find their config, .env, and skills.
* fix(desktop): rebind sessions after websocket reconnect
* docs(desktop): explain the reconnect-resume guard in use-route-resume
The reconnect fix turns on two subtle conditions with no inline rationale:
`seenGatewayStateRef` suppresses a spurious "became open" on the first effect
run (so a session mounting with the gateway already open doesn't double-resume),
and the `gatewayBecameOpen ||` arm forces a re-resume even when the route looks
`alreadyActive` because the cached runtime id can be stale after the gateway
rebinds/reaps the session. Comment both so the next reader doesn't "simplify"
them back into the original bug. No behavior change.

The previous fix (#42991) only omitted reasoning when it was being disabled.
But reasoning-mandatory Anthropic models (Claude 4.6+, fable) 400 with
thinking.type.disabled on EVERY tool-continuation turn even when reasoning is
enabled: chat_completions never replays signed thinking blocks, so the prior
assistant tool_call has no thinking, and OpenRouter resolves "reasoning
requested but history has none" by emitting thinking.type.disabled — which
these models reject. Result: first turn works, every turn after the first tool
call dies (HTTP 400, non-retryable).
OpenRouter ignores reasoning.effort for adaptive Anthropic models anyway (the
model self-decides), so the reasoning field is pointless for them on every turn
and harmful on tool-replay turns. Omit it entirely → adaptive default.
- openrouter profile: drop the reasoning field for reasoning-mandatory Anthropic
models regardless of enabled/disabled; legacy Anthropic + non-Anthropic models
unchanged.
- tests: assert omission across enabled/disabled/effort variants; parity tests
switched to a non-Anthropic reasoning model (deepseek) since Anthropic 4.6+ no
longer carries a reasoning field.
Verified live end-to-end: a tool-replay turn on anthropic/claude-fable-5 with
reasoning enabled now builds extra_body=None and returns HTTP 200 (was 400).
* fix(install): self-heal a stuck Electron download on the desktop build
The desktop build downloads Electron (~114MB) from GitHub. A corrupt cached
zip, or a blocked/throttled GitHub release host (the repeating "retrying" log),
hard-failed the install — and install.sh had no recovery at all while
install.ps1 / `hermes desktop` only purged the cache.
All three build paths now escalate on a failed `npm run pack`:
GitHub → purge corrupt electron-*.zip + stale *-unpacked and retry → one retry
via a public Electron mirror (npmmirror.com). @electron/get SHASUM-verifies the
download, and a user-pinned ELECTRON_MIRROR is always respected (never
overridden). Adds a bash clear_electron_build_cache()/_desktop_pack() to mirror
the existing PowerShell/Python helpers.
* test(install): cover the Electron mirror fallback
Verify `hermes desktop` falls back to a mirror when the cache purge finds
nothing, and that a user-pinned ELECTRON_MIRROR is respected (no extra attempt,
not overridden).
* docs(desktop): troubleshoot a stuck Electron download
Document the automatic cache-purge + mirror fallback, how to pin your own
ELECTRON_MIRROR, and how to clear a corrupt cached zip by hand.
* docs(install): correct the Electron mirror trust framing
The mirror-fallback comments and the desktop troubleshooting doc implied
`@electron/get`'s SHASUM check makes the npmmirror.com download safe against
tampering. It doesn't: the SHASUMS256.txt is fetched from the same mirror, so
the check guards against a corrupt/partial download, not a compromised mirror.
Reframe all four surfaces (install.sh, install.ps1, `hermes desktop`, and the
docs) to state the trust trade-off honestly — npmmirror.com is the de-facto
Electron community mirror, we only fall back to it after the canonical GitHub
download fails, and a user-pinned ELECTRON_MIRROR is never overridden. No
behavior change.

New Anthropic models without a recognized version substring (claude-fable-5
and future named/numbered releases) were classified as legacy and routed down
the manual-thinking path, which made OpenRouter emit thinking.type.disabled —
a form reasoning-mandatory Claude models reject with a non-retryable HTTP 400.
Invert the brittle version-substring allowlists to default-to-modern (mirroring
_get_anthropic_max_output): unknown Claude models get the adaptive/xhigh/
no-sampling contract, with an explicit legacy list for older families. Non-Claude
Anthropic-Messages models (minimax, qwen3, …) keep the manual path.
- anthropic_adapter: _supports_adaptive_thinking / _supports_xhigh_effort /
_forbids_sampling_params now default unknown Claude models to modern; legacy
families enumerated in _LEGACY_MANUAL_THINKING_CLAUDE_SUBSTRINGS.
- openrouter profile: omit reasoning entirely (→ adaptive default) instead of
forwarding {enabled:false} for reasoning-mandatory Anthropic models; legacy
Anthropic + all non-Anthropic models still pass the disable form through.
- model_metadata + output-limit table: register claude-fable-5 (1M ctx, 128K out).
Tests assert the invariant ("unknown Claude model -> modern contract; legacy
stays manual; non-Claude unaffected"), not specific model names.
The shipped MCP catalog (optional-mcps/) wasn't packaged, so `hermes mcp catalog` and the dashboard catalog screen come up empty on pip/Homebrew/Nix installs even though the manifests exist in the repo. The runtime expects a packaged catalog (get_optional_mcps_dir() -> _get_packaged_data_dir("optional-mcps"); list_catalog() returns [] when it's absent).
Ship it like locales: pyproject [tool.setuptools.data-files] for the wheel + a MANIFEST.in graft for the sdist. optional-mcps/ is nested (optional-mcps/<name>/manifest.yaml) and data-files flattens each glob into its target dir, so each catalog entry gets its own target to preserve the per-entry directory the catalog iterates over.
The TUI had no way to toggle plugins — `/plugins` only printed a static
list, and the classic `hermes plugins` picker is curses-based and can't
run inside the Ink UI. Users had to drop to a separate shell and run
`hermes plugins enable/disable`.
Add a PluginsHub overlay modeled on the existing SkillsHub:
- New gateway RPC `plugins.manage` (list + toggle) backed by the same
disk-discovery + dashboard_set_agent_plugin_enabled primitives the CLI
and dashboard already use, so all three surfaces agree on state. The
toggle path also wires the plugin's toolset into platform_toolsets.
- `/plugins` with no arg opens the hub; any subcommand still falls
through to the text slash worker for CLI parity.
- pluginsHub overlay state threaded through overlayStore / interfaces /
useInputHandlers (Esc closes) / appOverlays (renders the FloatBox);
preserved across turn teardown like other user-toggled overlays.
- Hub UI: arrow/number select, Enter/Space toggles live, Tab switches
user-only vs all (bundled) scope, shows ✓/✗/○ activation glyphs.
plugins.manage added to _LONG_HANDLERS (disk + config I/O).
The /plugins slash command read from the live PluginManager, which only
knows about *loaded* plugins. A freshly-installed plugin that hadn't been
enabled yet showed 'No plugins installed. Drop plugin directories into
~/.hermes/plugins/' — even though it was on disk and a valid plugin.
Switch to the same disk-discovery path as 'hermes plugins list'
(_discover_all_plugins + enabled/disabled sets + _plugin_status), so an
installed plugin now appears with its activation state ([not enabled],
enabled, or disabled) plus the exact enable command.
Default the quick /plugins view to user-installed plugins and summarize
bundled providers/platforms on one line (the full catalog stays behind
'hermes plugins list') so the output isn't drowned by 60+ bundled
provider plugins.
OpenRouter-routed slugs that are absent from models.dev (e.g. a freshly
shipped anthropic/claude-fable-5) fell through to the generic
DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS["claude"]=200K entry and under-reported their real
1M window. The step-6 OpenRouter live-metadata fallback was gated on
`not effective_provider`, but an OpenRouter selection sets
effective_provider="openrouter" (inferred from the base URL), so that
branch was dead code for every OR model.
Add a dedicated step-5 OpenRouter branch that consults the live /models
catalog (authoritative, refreshes as new slugs ship) before models.dev and
the hardcoded family defaults — mirroring the existing Nous/Copilot/GMI
branches. Keeps the Kimi-family 32k underreport guard. Per-model values are
respected (claude-haiku-4.5 stays 200K), so it does not blanket-bump to 1M.
Regression tests cover the fable-5 case, the genuinely-200k case, and the
Kimi guard.
Support installing a plugin that lives in a subdirectory of a larger
repo (docs/tests at root, plugin in a subdir) without forcing a
dedicated single-plugin repo.
Identifier syntax:
owner/repo/path/to/plugin (shorthand + subpath)
<url>.git/path/to/plugin (.git boundary on GitHub-style URLs)
<url>#path/to/plugin (explicit fragment, any scheme)
_resolve_git_url now returns (git_url, subdir); _install_plugin_core
reads the manifest from and moves only the subdir, so root-level docs
and tests no longer leak into ~/.hermes/plugins. _resolve_subdir_within
guards against path traversal, missing dirs, and non-directories.
Both the CLI (hermes plugins install) and the dashboard install endpoint
inherit this for free since they share _install_plugin_core. Dashboard
install hint + placeholder updated to advertise the subdir syntax.

Adds the model above claude-opus-4.8 in both the OpenROUTER_MODELS and
_PROVIDER_MODELS['nous'] curated picker lists used by /model and
`hermes model`. Regenerated website/static/api/model-catalog.json to match.
* fix(desktop): pad app icon to Apple grid so dock size matches peers
The icon body filled ~92% of the canvas; macOS adds no padding, so it
rendered larger than other dock icons. Normalize to Apple's grid (~824px
body on a 1024px canvas) and ship a reproducible generator.
- regenerate icon.png/.icns/.ico with ~80% body + transparent margins
- keep original art as icon-source.png (master)
- add scripts/gen-app-icon.cjs + `npm run icons` (idempotent)
* chore(desktop): drop one-shot icon generator, ship only the assets
The regenerated icon.png/.icns/.ico are the deliverable; the padding
rationale lives in the PR. No build infra needed for a one-off.
* fix(desktop): pad apple-touch-icon — the actual runtime dock icon
app.dock.setIcon() overrides the bundle .icns at runtime with
public/apple-touch-icon.png, so the dock icon users see while the app
runs came from that (1254px canvas, ~91% full-bleed body). Normalize it
to the same Apple grid (824px body on 1024px canvas). Also covers the
web favicon + onboarding logo that reference the same file.
* fix(deps): bump urllib3 and PyJWT to clear CVEs
urllib3 2.6.3 → 2.7.0: fixes GHSA-mf9v-mfxr-j63j (decompression-bomb
bypass in streaming API) and GHSA-qccp-gfcp-xxvc (sensitive headers
forwarded across origins in proxied redirects).
PyJWT 2.12.1 → 2.13.0: fixes PYSEC-2026-175/177/178/179.
Note: python-multipart and idna are already at patched versions in
uv.lock (0.0.27 and 3.15 respectively).
Fixes#40176
* fix(deps): add upper bound for urllib3 dependency spec
Add '<3' ceiling to urllib3 specifier to satisfy the PyPI dependency
upper bounds CI check. Per CONTRIBUTING.md policy, all PyPI deps must
use '>=floor,<next_major' pinning.
* fix(photon): override transitive CVEs in the sidecar deps
`npm audit` flagged 7 high-severity transitive CVEs (protobufjs code injection
GHSA-66ff-xgx4-vchm + outdated @opentelemetry OTLP exporters) pulled in via
spectrum-ts -> @photon-ai/otel. npm's suggested fix downgrades spectrum-ts to a
version that targets the decommissioned spectrum host, so instead pin patched
versions via `overrides` (protobufjs 8.6.1, @opentelemetry/* 0.218.0) without
touching spectrum-ts. `npm audit` -> 0; spectrum-ts + provider still import.
* fix(photon): harden the sidecar bridge + bound the dedup cache
- constant-time sidecar control-token comparison (was `!==`, timing-attackable).
- cap the control-channel request body (2 MiB) so a compromised local peer can't
OOM the sidecar.
- wrap the inbound gRPC stream consumer in a re-subscribe loop with capped
exponential backoff + jitter — if the async iterator throws/ends it would
otherwise stop inbound forever (the adapter dedupes any replay).
- add an unhandledRejection handler so a stray rejection logs instead of killing
the process.
- dedup cache (adapter) was a true bounded LRU only for expired entries; a burst
of unique ids within the window grew it without limit. Evict oldest at the cap.
* chore: add AUTHOR_MAP entry for PhilipAD

* fix(deps): declare packaging as a core dependency so it ships everywhere
packaging is imported directly on three production paths but was never
declared in [project.dependencies], so it only reached users transitively
(pip/uv pull it for other tools). The slim official Docker image ships
without it, where each try/except-ImportError fallback silently degrades:
- plugins/memory/hindsight/__init__.py (_meets_minimum_version) returns
False when packaging is absent, disabling update_mode='append' so every
session leaks separate Hindsight documents (the reported #40503 symptom).
- tools/lazy_deps.py (_is_satisfied) falls back to "installed counts as
satisfied", defeating every version-constraint check on lazy extras.
- hermes_cli/main.py drops to naive name==version requirement parsing.
Promote it to a declared core dep pinned to packaging==26.0 — the exact
version already resolved in uv.lock, so there is zero resolution churn (the
lock change is two edge annotations marking it transitive->direct). It is a
pure-Python py3-none-any wheel with no compiled extensions, safe to ship on
every platform. Declaring it also wires it into the
_verify_core_dependencies_installed() update-repair guard, which reinstalls
missing [project.dependencies] on hermes update.
Adds a hermetic tomllib-parse regression test that fails before the
declaration and passes after.
Fixes#40503
* test(deps): make packaging dep-name extraction PEP 508-robust
Address Copilot review on #40522: the inline name-extraction only handled
==, >=, [ and ; and could mis-parse valid requirement strings using <=, ~=,
!=, <, > or a direct reference (name @ url). Factor a _distribution_name
helper that drops markers, direct-reference URLs and extras, then strips any
version operator via regex, so a future dep declared with any PEP 508
specifier shape is matched correctly.

* fix(desktop): keep chat recents focused and reset hotkey target
Exclude messaging platform threads from chat recents pagination so Load More returns chat sessions, and clear stale quick-create profile state before Ctrl+N starts a new session.
* fix(desktop): surface new sessions in sidebar + unstick new-chat Thinking
Two renderer regressions in the desktop chat app:
- Sidebar ordering: orderByIds/reconcileOrderIds appended ids missing from
the persisted order to the BOTTOM. Callers pass recency-sorted lists
(newest first), so a brand-new Ctrl+N session sank below the saved order
and read as "my latest session never showed up". Prepend fresh ids so new
activity surfaces at the top.
- New-chat stuck on "Thinking": terminal/attention state transitions
(turn finished, error, or agent now waiting on user) were RAF-batched.
Electron throttles requestAnimationFrame to ~0 while the window is
backgrounded, occluded, or unfocused, stranding the deferred flush. Flush
critical transitions (!busy || needsInput) synchronously; keep the busy
heartbeat RAF-batched to avoid scroll churn.
Does not touch the messaging-source exclusion in chat recents queries.
* fix(desktop): stop excluding messaging platforms from chat recents
The "keep chat recents focused" change excluded every messaging-platform
source (telegram, discord, slack, …) from the recents query. That silently
undid the messaging-source-folder feature already on main (ede4f5a4a): the
sidebar builds those folders purely from the loaded recents page, so once the
sources were filtered out the folders never rendered — telegram and friends
vanished from the left sidebar.
Only cron stays excluded (it has its own dedicated section). Messaging
sessions belong in the sidebar and render with their platform folder/icon.
Removes the now-unused MESSAGING_SESSION_SOURCE_IDS export.
* fix(desktop): give each messaging platform its own self-managed sidebar section
Recents are local-only again: cron and every messaging platform are excluded
from the chat-recents query, so "Load more" pages through interactive local
chats instead of interleaving gateway threads that bury them.
Each messaging platform (telegram, discord, ...) is now fetched as its own
slice (refreshMessagingSessions) and rendered as a self-managed sidebar
section with its platform icon, count, and per-platform "load more" — no
source-grouping magic inside recents.
Handed-off sessions (live source becomes local after a handoff) keep their
origin-platform badge on the row via handoff_platform, so a Telegram thread
continued in the desktop still reads as Telegram.
* fix(desktop): self-heal a stranded routed session in route-resume
An intermittent create/stream race can leave selected/active session ids
null while the route stays on /:sid — the transcript then sticks empty
even though the turn completed and persisted (the "second Ctrl+N shows no
response" symptom). The pathname didn't change, so route-resume's normal
gate skipped and the view stayed stuck.
Resume whenever the routed session isn't the loaded one, gated on
freshDraftReady so the /:sid -> /new transition (which also momentarily
nulls selected/active a render before the pathname flips) is NOT treated
as stranded. selectedStoredSessionIdRef is set synchronously at resume
entry, so this can't loop, and the resume cached fast-path restores the
already-streamed messages without a refetch.
* fix(desktop): bypass smooth reveal on primary markdown stream
Render main assistant text through deferred markdown directly instead of the smooth-reveal wrapper. This isolates the wrapper to reasoning surfaces and avoids the intermittent blank-response regression after consecutive new-session flows.
Add TestParseCharBasedOutputCap for the LM Studio / llama.cpp phrasing
(context in tokens, prompt in characters): the reported error resolves to
the available output budget, the retried cap plus the estimated input
stays inside the window, and a prompt larger than the window falls through
to None so the prompt-too-long/compression path still owns that case.
LM Studio / llama.cpp-style servers report the context window in tokens
but the prompt size in characters, e.g. "maximum context length is 65536
tokens. However, you requested 65536 output tokens and your prompt
contains 77409 characters". When a provider profile's default_max_tokens
equals the model's context window, the very first request asks for the
whole window as output and the server returns a hard HTTP 400 — even on a
trivial "hi".
parse_available_output_tokens_from_error did not recognise this phrasing,
so the overflow was misrouted to the prompt-too-long/compression path
(which can't help when the input already fits) instead of the output-cap
reduction + retry path. Detect the "requested N output tokens" form,
estimate the input from the character count (~3 chars/token, conservative
so the retried cap stays inside the window), and return the available
output budget so the existing retry logic shrinks max_tokens and succeeds.
The salvaged refactor's new tests use unittest.mock.patch (25 call sites)
but the import line only brought in AsyncMock and MagicMock, so 10 of the
new tests failed with NameError. Add patch to the import.
Adds three vitest cases for the recovery path: resume+retry on
"session not found", no-resume passthrough on other errors, and
no-resume when there is no stored session id. Also maps the
contributor's commit email in release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
When the laptop sleeps and wakes, the WebSocket reconnects but the
gateway's in-memory session table is cleared. The desktop app still
holds the old activeSessionId, so the next prompt.submit call returns
error 4001 ('session not found'), surfaced to the user as:
'Prompt failed: session not found'
Fix: wrap prompt.submit in a try/catch. On 'session not found', call
session.resume with the durable SQLite session ID (selectedStoredSessionIdRef)
to re-register the session in the gateway, update activeSessionIdRef to
the fresh live session_id, then retry prompt.submit once.
If recovery fails or the error is unrelated, the original error is
re-thrown and surfaces normally.
Based on #42658 by @mnajafian-nv.
Preserves the real downstream provider/tool exception when NeMo Relay's
managed adaptive execution wraps a failing callback as an internal runtime
error. Without this, the original exception (and its retry-classification
signal, e.g. status_code) is lost behind Relay's wrapper.
Salvage changes on top of the original PR:
- Tolerant Relay-wrapper match: _is_relay_wrapped_callback_error now uses
str.startswith on the "internal error: <cls>: <msg>" prefix instead of
exact equality, so a future Relay version appending a traceback/suffix
doesn't silently defeat the unwrap. On a total format change it returns
False and falls back to the pre-fix behavior (surfacing Relay's error)
rather than masking it.
- Deduplicated the LLM and tool execute paths into a shared
_run_managed_with_downstream_preservation helper, removing ~20 lines of
copy-pasted nonlocal/try-except scaffolding that could drift out of sync.
- Added a real-middleware regression guard
(test_nemo_relay_downstream_unwrap_matches_real_middleware_wrapper_shape)
that drives hermes_cli.middleware._run_execution_chain and asserts the
plugin's _original_downstream_error unwraps the actual private
_DownstreamExecutionError wrapper. The original synthetic tests modeled the
wrapper with a local class, so a rename or shape change in core middleware
would not have been caught; this test fails loudly if that contract drifts.

The markdown code-block change rendered args['command'] in full in both
verbose AND non-verbose (all/new) modes, so a long or multi-line terminal
command bypassed the tool_preview_length cap (default 40) and rendered as
a huge block. Non-verbose now collapses to a single line capped at the
preview length while keeping the fence; verbose keeps the full command.
* fix(terminal): complete sane PATH entries on POSIX
Fixes macOS gateway/launchd terminal sessions whose PATH already
includes /usr/bin while omitting Apple Silicon Homebrew paths.
LocalEnvironment._make_run_env() now appends each missing _SANE_PATH
entry individually on POSIX, preserving caller precedence and avoiding
duplicate sane entries.
Root cause: the previous logic used /usr/bin as the sentinel for sane
PATH injection. macOS launchd commonly provides /usr/bin while leaving
out /opt/homebrew/bin and /opt/homebrew/sbin, so Homebrew-installed
CLIs stayed unavailable in terminal tool calls.

* test(terminal): harden sane PATH completion against dup/empty entries
Follow-up to the #35613 fix. Strengthens _append_missing_sane_path_entries:
- De-duplicate the caller-supplied PATH (first occurrence wins) so a PATH
that already contains duplicate entries is collapsed rather than carried
through. Previously only newly-appended sane entries were guarded against
duplication; pre-existing caller duplicates were preserved verbatim.
- Drop empty PATH entries (leading/trailing/double ':'), which POSIX shells
interpret as the current working directory — a mild foot-gun in a
default terminal environment.
Behaviour for well-formed PATHs (no duplicates, no empty entries) is
byte-identical to before; only malformed/duplicated inputs change.
Adds regression tests for: the literal macOS launchd PATH
(/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin), caller-duplicate collapsing with
order preservation, and empty-entry stripping.
* docs(terminal): clarify PATH normalisation semantics; drop dead set add
Addresses review findings on the sane-PATH completion follow-up:
- Sharpen the _append_missing_sane_path_entries docstring to state
explicitly that on POSIX the caller PATH is rewritten (empty entries
stripped, duplicates collapsed) rather than merely appended to, and
that well-formed PATHs remain byte-identical bar the appended sane
entries. This makes the intentional semantic change visible rather
than buried under "hardening".
- Document why _path_env_key is a deliberate second Windows guard
distinct from the helper's early return (key-casing selection vs
standalone safety), so neither is mistaken for redundant and removed.
- Drop the dead `seen.add(entry)` in the sane-entry loop: _SANE_PATH is
a static duplicate-free constant, so the membership check against the
caller entries is sufficient and `seen` is never read afterwards.
No behaviour change: verified byte-identical output across the launchd,
minimal, empty, duplicate, empty-entry and already-full cases, and
re-confirmed gh/brew resolve through the real LocalEnvironment.execute()
path under a launchd-style PATH. 133 targeted tests pass.
Intentionally NOT consolidating with tools/browser_tool._merge_browser_path:
it prepends (vs append), filters on os.path.isdir, uses os.pathsep, and
draws from a dynamic candidate set — a shared helper is a separate
refactor, out of scope for this bugfix.

`test_terminal_config_env_sync.py::_save_config_env_sync_keys()`
AST-scanned `hermes_cli/config.py:set_config_value` for a
`_config_to_env_sync = {...}` literal. The terminal-config env bridging
was consolidated onto the canonical `TERMINAL_CONFIG_ENV_MAP` (now read
via `terminal_config_env_var_for_key()`), so that literal no longer
exists and the scanner raised:
AssertionError: Could not find `_config_to_env_sync = {...}` literal in source
failing 8 of 9 tests on main for every PR.
Read the live `TERMINAL_CONFIG_ENV_MAP` instead — the actual source of
truth `set_config_value` bridges through — mirroring its `terminal.cwd`
exclusion. Refresh the stale module docstring and the now-incorrect
error-message hints that still referenced `_config_to_env_sync`.
Verified: the suite goes green, and a mutation (dropping `docker_volumes`
from `TERMINAL_CONFIG_ENV_MAP`) still trips the pinned regression test,
so the drift guard retains its teeth.
@file: attachments now work when the desktop is connected to a remote
gateway. Previously a referenced file resolved to a client-disk path the
gateway couldn't see, so context_references rejected it with "path is
outside the allowed workspace" and the agent never saw the file.
Adds a file.attach RPC (sibling to the existing image.attach_bytes /
pdf.attach byte-upload pipeline): the desktop uploads the file bytes, the
gateway stages them into <workspace>/.hermes/desktop-attachments/ and
returns a workspace-relative @file: ref that resolves cleanly. Local mode
passes the path directly; a gateway-visible file outside the workspace is
copied in; an in-workspace file is referenced as-is with no copy.
Consolidates the file-sync design from #38615 (LeonSGP43) and the
host-file-staging idea from #33455 (Carry00), rebased onto the
image/PDF remote-media helpers already on main.

The Portal's /api/nous/recommended-models endpoint is the source of truth for
which models are free/paid right now, but its result was cached in-process
only. When the live fetch failed (network, parse, non-2xx), the function
returned {} and the model picker silently dropped the free/paid
recommendations — free models would vanish with no indication anything went
wrong.
Add a per-base disk cache at $HERMES_HOME/cache/nous_recommended_cache.json:
a successful live fetch is persisted as last-known-good, and a failed fetch
with an empty in-process cache falls back to the disk copy instead of {}.
Self-heals on the next successful fetch. With no disk copy, still degrades to
{} (callers already handle that). Keyed by portal base URL so staging/prod
don't collide.
E2E: live fetch writes disk; simulated Portal failure returns the cached free
models from disk; no-disk + failure returns {}.
Two new free-tier slugs surfaced in /model and `hermes model`. owl-alpha
was already present. Regenerated website/static/api/model-catalog.json to
keep the manifest sync test green.
The autouse _suppress_concurrent_hermes_gate fixture did
monkeypatch.setattr(main, '_detect_concurrent_hermes_instances', ...) with
no raising=False. Its try/except guards the import but not the setattr, so
under pytest's per-test spawn isolation a transiently partial hermes_cli.main
module (one a concurrent worker is mid-importing) made setattr raise
AttributeError and errored unrelated tests in the slice.
Add raising=False so a transiently-absent attribute is a no-op default rather
than a hard error. The attribute always exists once main.py finishes
importing; the real-function opt-out (@pytest.mark.real_concurrent_gate) is
unaffected.
Follow-up to the salvaged fallback-chain fix:
- Replace the hand-rolled fallback loader with the shared
hermes_cli.fallback_config.get_fallback_chain() helper so the TUI path
matches HermesCLI and gateway/run.py exactly: fallback_providers stays
first and keeps order, with distinct legacy fallback_model entries
merged in after (deduped). Previously the TUI loader picked one key OR
the other, diverging from CLI/gateway when both were set.
- Update the test to assert the merged canonical semantics.
- Add psionic73 to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP (CI gate).
