* fix(gateway): only fire planned-stop watcher for markers targeting self
Salvaged from #34599 — rebased onto current main.
The planned-stop watcher now only fires shutdown for a marker that targets
the current process, instead of any marker that exists on disk. Fixes the
Windows crash loop (#34597) where a stale marker from a previous Gateway
instance kills a freshly booted Gateway ~400ms after start with a false
"Received UNKNOWN — initiating shutdown".

* fix(gateway): match planned-stop/takeover markers by PID alone when start_time is unavailable
Follow-up to the #34599 salvage. The watcher's non-destructive probe
(planned_stop_marker_targets_self) already falls back to PID equality when
a process start_time is unavailable, but the authoritative consume it gates
(_consume_pid_marker_for_self) still required a non-None start_time match.
_get_process_start_time reads /proc/<pid>/stat and returns None on macOS and
native Windows — the only platform the planned-stop watcher exists for. So on
Windows the probe would fire the shutdown handler (PID matches) but the
handler's consume_planned_stop_marker_for_self() would return False, and a
legitimate 'hermes gateway stop' was still misclassified as an unexpected
UNKNOWN exit (exit 1) and revived by the service manager — a residual half of
the #34597 crash loop on the legitimate-stop path.
Align the consume with the probe: when both start_times are known they must
match (PID-reuse guard preserved on Linux); when either is unavailable, fall
back to PID equality alone, bounded by the existing short marker TTL. This
also fixes the parallel --replace takeover consume on Windows, which shares
the same helper.
Adds regression tests for the Windows (None start_time) path, the foreign-PID
rejection under that fallback, and confirmation the start_time-mismatch guard
still rejects when both are known.

FAL veo3.1 API expects duration as "4s"/"6s"/"8s" (with unit suffix),
not bare "4"/"6"/"8" like other families. Add per-family duration_suffix
field and apply it in _build_payload. Also add "4k" to veo3.1 resolutions
per FAL API docs.
Note: the managed gateway currently rejects the "4s" format (expects
integer duration). Gateway-side fix needed for veo3.1 to work through
the Nous subscription path.
Add the same managed-gateway UX that image_gen already has:
- TOOL_CATEGORIES['video_gen'] gets a 'Nous Subscription' provider row
with managed_nous_feature='video_gen' + video_gen_plugin_name='fal'
- NousSubscriptionFeatures gains a video_gen property + feature state
computation (managed/active/available using the fal-queue gateway)
- _GATEWAY_TOOL_LABELS, _GATEWAY_DIRECT_LABELS, _ALL_GATEWAY_KEYS,
_get_gateway_direct_credentials, opted_in all include video_gen
- apply_nous_managed_defaults and apply_gateway_defaults handle video_gen
- _is_toolset_satisfied checks Nous features for video_gen
- _is_provider_active detects managed video_gen (use_gateway + fal provider)
- _select_plugin_video_gen_provider accepts use_gateway kwarg, propagated
from all 4 call sites in _configure_provider when managed_feature is set
- hermes setup status shows 'Video Generation (FAL via Nous subscription)'
Users on a Nous subscription can now pick 'Nous Subscription' under
hermes tools → Video Generation, which sets video_gen.provider=fal +
video_gen.use_gateway=true. The FAL plugin's _resolve_managed_fal_video_gateway
then routes through the managed queue gateway — no FAL_KEY needed.
- Add test for 4xx ValueError with actionable remediation message
- Add test for is_available() returning True via managed gateway
- Add test for prefers_gateway overriding direct FAL_KEY
- Add test for is_available() via gateway in plugin test file
Wire plugins/video_gen/fal/__init__.py to use the same
_ManagedFalSyncClient pattern that image gen already uses.
Changes:
- Add managed gateway resolution, client caching, and
_submit_fal_video_request() that routes between direct FAL_KEY
and Nous gateway modes
- Update is_available() to return True when either FAL_KEY or the
managed gateway is reachable
- Update generate() to use submit+get handle pattern instead of
fal_client.subscribe() directly
- Fix happy-horse endpoint namespace: fal-ai/ → alibaba/ (matches
the tool-gateway allowlist from fal-video-gen branch)
- Surface actionable error on 4xx gateway rejections
Tests:
- 4 new tests in test_managed_media_gateways.py (gateway routing,
client reuse, direct mode fallback, alibaba namespace)
- Updated existing test_fal_plugin.py fixture to use submit/handle
pattern and patch _resolve_managed_fal_video_gateway for isolation
The scan-gate / dep-bounds-gate jobs use needs.changes; if the changes
job itself fails, its dependents would be skipped via a failed dependency
(not a conditional skip), leaving the required check unreported — the same
"pending forever" failure this PR fixes. Add always() and switch the gate
condition from == 'false' to != 'true' so the gate still fires (and reports
SUCCESS) when changes fails and its output is empty.
Remove paths filters from contributor-check and supply-chain-audit
workflows. When no matching files changed, the workflows never ran and
the required checks (check-attribution, supply chain scan, dep bounds)
stayed "pending" forever, blocking merge.
Now both workflows always trigger. A path-check step/job determines
whether the real work should run; gate jobs with matching names report
success when the real job was skipped, so branch protection always
gets a check status.
Also fixes dep-bounds: the old condition
if: contains(github.event.pull_request.changed_files_url, 'pyproject.toml') || true
was always true (the || true made it unconditional). Now uses the
proper changes.deps output from the shared filter job.
Have vacuum() return optimize_fts()'s count so the CLI 'sessions optimize'
summary uses the real merged-index count instead of probing the private
_FTS_TABLES / _fts_table_exists() members.
The FTS5 indexes (messages_fts, messages_fts_trigram) grow as a series of
incremental b-tree segments — one per trigger-driven insert batch. SQLite's
automerge caps at ~16 segments, so a long-lived store keeps scanning many
segments per MATCH and never collapses them unless the special 'optimize'
command runs. Nothing in the codebase ever ran it: vacuum() only fired after
a prune that deleted rows, and even then never merged FTS segments.
Changes:
- SessionDB.optimize_fts(): merges each FTS5 index to a single segment,
probing for the (optional/lazy) trigram table first so it is safe to call
unconditionally. Layout-only — search results and snippet() are unchanged.
- vacuum() now calls optimize_fts() before VACUUM so freed index pages are
returned to the OS in the same pass.
- 'hermes sessions optimize' CLI subcommand for on-demand reclamation +
segment compaction (previously there was no way to compact the store
without a prune deleting rows), with before/after size reporting.
Benchmark (8000 msgs, fragmented to 8 segments/index):
- segments 8 -> 1 on both indexes
- porter MATCH 5.5x faster (0.449 -> 0.081 ms/q)
- trigram MATCH 3.0x faster (0.632 -> 0.207 ms/q)
- 8000 matches before == 8000 after, identical row ids (no functional change)
Orthogonal to the structural FTS-size PRs (#20239 external-content,
#27770 optional trigram) — segment merge helps regardless of those.
Tests: TestOptimizeFts covers index count, search+snippet preservation,
missing-trigram path, and idempotency. Full test_hermes_state.py green (227).
The rotation flowchart only described the generic 'retry once, rotate on
second 429' path. ChatGPT/Codex plan-limit 429s carry a usage_limit_reached
reason and rotate to the next pool key immediately (no retry, since the cap
won't clear on retry). Document that case so the docs match the code.
Adds a `grok` skill under `skills/autonomous-ai-agents/`, a third coding-agent orchestration guide alongside `codex` and `claude-code`. It teaches Hermes to delegate coding tasks to Grok Build (xAI's `grok` CLI).

* chore(models): swap gemini-3-flash-preview for gemini-3.5-flash in OpenRouter + Nous lists
* chore(models): regenerate model-catalog.json for gemini-3.5-flash swap
Two CI flakes surfaced on PR #34572 (both in files this PR doesn't touch;
pre-existing host-dependent flakes):
1. test_process_registry::TestPopenLeakOnSetupFailure — the failure-cleanup
tests use a fake proc.pid (8888/9999) and assert proc.kill() runs. But
spawn_local's primary cleanup is os.killpg(os.getpgid(pid), SIGKILL),
falling back to proc.kill() only on ProcessLookupError/PermissionError/
OSError. When the fake PID happens to exist on a busy host, os.getpgid
succeeds, os.killpg fires against an UNRELATED real process group, and
proc.kill() is never reached -> flaky AssertionError (and a real risk of
SIGKILLing an innocent process group from a unit test). Patch os.getpgid
to raise ProcessLookupError so the fallback path runs deterministically
and no real killpg is ever issued.
2. test_web_server::test_resize_escape_is_forwarded — the receive loop calls
the blocking conn.receive_bytes() with no exception guard. Once the child
prints its winsize and exits, the PTY closes; on a missed-marker run the
next recv blocks until the 30s pytest-timeout instead of failing fast.
Add a try/except break (matching the working sibling tests) and bump the
child's pre-read sleep 0.15s -> 0.5s so the resize reliably lands first.
Verified: 4/4 pass across 3 consecutive runs; root cause for #1 reproduced
(os.getpgid(1) succeeds -> old code skips proc.kill).
_adapter_enforces_own_access_policy accessed self.adapters directly, but
several auth tests build a bare GatewayRunner via object.__new__ without
setting .adapters (pitfalls.md #17). Read it defensively with getattr so a
missing/empty adapter map means "no adapter owns the policy" instead of
raising AttributeError.
Fixes 4 tests: test_feishu_bot_auth_bypass, test_discord_bot_auth_bypass (x2),
test_signal::test_signal_in_allowlist_maps.
Config-driven platform policies (dm_policy / group_policy / allow_from /
group_allow_from) for WeCom, Weixin, Yuanbao, and QQBot now work without
also setting a PLATFORM_ALLOWED_USERS env var.
These adapters enforce their access policy at intake — a message is dropped
inside the adapter and never dispatched unless it already passed the policy.
The gateway's env-based check (_is_user_authorized) ran afterward and, with
no env allowlist set, fell through to an env-only default-deny — silently
rejecting `dm_policy: open` and config-only allowlists the adapter had
already authorized.
Rather than re-implement each adapter's policy a second time in run.py
(which would drift), adapters that own their gate now declare it via a new
BasePlatformAdapter.enforces_own_access_policy property (default False). The
gateway trusts that flag and skips the env-only default-deny for those
platforms. Env allowlists still take precedence when set.
Also resolves unauthorized DM behavior from config dm_policy so allowlist /
disabled policies drop unauthorized DMs silently instead of leaking pairing
codes, while an explicit pairing policy opts back in.

Follow-up for #30240 — the new page was not referenced in sidebars.ts,
leaving it orphaned (unreachable via nav and flagged as a broken relative
link to ./profiles.md). Added under Using Hermes after profile-distributions.
Covers running multiple Hermes profiles as managed services on one host:
- A shell-loop wrapper pattern for start/stop/restart/status across every
profile (the per-profile CLI commands stay unchanged).
- Per-platform service file locations (LaunchAgent on macOS, systemd user
unit on Linux), plus the rules around clashes.
- Log paths per profile and how to tail every gateway at once.
- Config file layout per profile and the restart-after-edit workflow.
- Keeping the host awake: caffeinate flags on macOS,
systemd-inhibit + loginctl enable-linger on Linux.
- Token-conflict auditing across .env files.
- Troubleshooting for the common "Could not find service in domain for
user gui: 501" message and stale PIDs after a crash.
Tested locally with five profiles on macOS launchd.

* fix(security): block AWS SDK creds from subprocess env
* fix(security): narrow Bedrock subprocess strip to inference bearer token only
Scopes the AWS_SDK subprocess strip down from the full AWS credential chain
to just AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK — the only Hermes-managed *inference* secret
(analogous to OPENAI_API_KEY). The general AWS credential chain
(AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID / AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY / AWS_SESSION_TOKEN / AWS_PROFILE
/ config + role pointers) is intentionally left inheritable.
Why: per SECURITY.md §3.2 the local terminal is the user's trusted operator
shell. Hard-blocklisting the general chain would (a) regress *every* user who
runs aws/terraform/cdk/boto3 in the agent terminal — not just Bedrock users,
since PROVIDER_REGISTRY is iterated unconditionally at import — and (b) be
unrecoverable, because env_passthrough.py refuses to re-allow anything in
_HERMES_PROVIDER_ENV_BLOCKLIST (GHSA-rhgp-j443-p4rf). The narrow strip closes
the reported leak (opencode enumerating the Bedrock catalog off the leaked
bearer token) with no capability loss.
Keeps zapabob's self-healing auth_type=="aws_sdk" mechanism so any future
SDK-cred provider is covered automatically.
Tests: bearer token stripped + general chain preserved (no-regression guard),
on both the runtime strip path and the blocklist-membership path.

* feat: embedder environment-hint hook for the system prompt
Adds HERMES_ENVIRONMENT_HINT env var (and config.yaml agent.environment_hint)
so a host wrapping Hermes (sandbox runner, managed platform) can describe the
runtime environment — proxy, credential handling, mount layout — in the system
prompt's environment-hints block, without editing the identity slot (SOUL.md).
Read once at prompt-build time, so it lands in the stable, cache-safe portion
of the system prompt. Env var overrides the config key (build-time/container
mechanism). Empty by default — no behavior change for existing installs.

The setup guide was missing the specific Feishu permission scopes to
configure and the event subscription (im.message.receive_v1) needed
for the bot to receive messages. Users had to reference external
OpenClaw documentation to complete the setup.
Adds:
- Required permissions table (im:message, im:message:send_as_bot,
im:resource, im:chat, im:chat:readonly)
- Recommended permissions (reactions, app info, contact)
- Event subscription step (im.message.receive_v1)
- App version publish reminder (permissions require published version)
Web search/extract dispatch read agent.web_search_registry before plugin
discovery had run, so in any process that hadn't imported model_tools.py
(subprocess agent runs, delegate children, standalone scripts) the registry
was empty: get_provider('firecrawl') returned None and the dispatcher emitted
the misleading 'No web extract provider configured' error even with
web.extract_backend set and FIRECRAWL_API_KEY exported.
Adds an idempotent _ensure_web_plugins_loaded() helper (mirrors
tools.browser_tool._ensure_browser_plugins_loaded) and calls it at the top of
both the web_search_tool and web_extract_tool dispatch sites before the
registry lookup.
Fixes#27580.

The fast-path decision (native routing + provider allowlist OR
supports_vision override) lived inline in vision_analyze and was copied
into browser_vision. Extract it to _should_use_native_vision_fast_path()
so both tools share one source of truth.
- vision_tools: gate logic now one helper; vision_analyze calls it in 3 lines
- browser_tool: thin envelope decoration over the shared helper, not a copy
- browser_vision typed Union[str, Dict] to match its real return shape
- tests slimmed to target the override path + text-mode-wins invariant
The _on_reaction approval handler used:
if self._allowed_user_ids and sender not in self._allowed_user_ids:
When MATRIX_ALLOWED_USERS is not configured, _allowed_user_ids is an
empty set. The short-circuit on the empty set caused the deny block to
never execute, allowing any Matrix room member to approve or deny tool
calls via ✅/❎ reactions — even users that run.py's _is_user_authorized
would reject for regular messages.
Fix mirrors the Telegram _is_callback_user_authorized fix (commit
89d32052e, PR #28494): deny by default when no allowlist is configured,
unless GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS=true is explicitly set.
Follow-up mitigation for the #27303 env-scrub tightening. Dropping the
broad HERMES_ prefix in favor of a 4-var operational allowlist is correct
hardening, but a sandbox script that imports a repo module reading a
non-allowlisted HERMES_* var at import time would otherwise see it
silently unset. _scrub_child_env now emits a one-shot debug log naming the
dropped non-secret HERMES_* vars and pointing at the env_passthrough
opt-in escape hatch. Secret-shaped vars are never named in the log.
Tests: dropped vars are logged + env_passthrough named; no log when
nothing is dropped; secret vars excluded from the diagnostic.
Cover context+callback propagation and teardown-clears, a source guard that both RPC threads stay wrapped, the check_execute_code_guard decision matrix (isolated backend, headless-local, cron-deny, gateway approve/deny/timeout/missing-notify, smart mode, session-yolo), the env-scrub allowlist/secret rules, and a behavioral test that execute_code() blocks before spawning on denial.

When approvals.mode=manual with security.tirith_enabled off and no auxiliary.approval model, dangerous commands and execute_code scripts can only be gated by live in-chat approval; with routing fixed they now fail closed (block) rather than silently auto-run. Surface that at startup so operators knowingly enable tirith or auxiliary.approval for unattended gateways.
Refs #30882
Wrap both execute_code RPC threads (local UDS + remote file-RPC) with propagate_context_to_thread so gateway sessions no longer fall into check_dangerous_command's non-interactive auto-approve branch and the CLI approval prompt stays reachable. Add check_execute_code_guard: one-shot fail-closed approval of the whole script in gateway/ask/cron-deny before the child spawns (skips isolated backends; command-string built only past the early returns). Drop the broad HERMES_ env passthrough for an explicit operational allowlist plus DSN/WEBHOOK secret substrings, and update the POSIX-equivalence oracle.
Refs #4146, #27303, #30882, #33057
Worker threads that dispatch Hermes tools started with an empty contextvars.Context and no thread-local approval/sudo callbacks. Add tools/thread_context.propagate_context_to_thread factoring that capture/install/clear lifecycle (mirrors the GHSA-qg5c-hvr5-hjgr pattern), and refactor agent/tool_executor onto it so the security-critical logic lives in one audited place. Update the contextvar-propagation source guard for the new call shape.
