Smart model routing (auto-routing short/simple turns to a cheap model
across providers) was opt-in and disabled by default. This removes the
feature wholesale: the routing module, its config keys, docs, tests, and
the orchestration scaffolding it required in cli.py / gateway/run.py /
cron/scheduler.py.
The /fast (Priority Processing / Anthropic fast mode) feature kept its
hooks into _resolve_turn_agent_config — those still build a route dict
and attach request_overrides when the model supports it; the route now
just always uses the session's primary model/provider rather than
running prompts through choose_cheap_model_route() first.
Also removed:
- DEFAULT_CONFIG['smart_model_routing'] block and matching commented-out
example sections in hermes_cli/config.py and cli-config.yaml.example
- _load_smart_model_routing() / self._smart_model_routing on GatewayRunner
- self._smart_model_routing / self._active_agent_route_signature on
HermesCLI (signature kept; just no longer initialised through the
smart-routing pipeline)
- route_label parameter on HermesCLI._init_agent (only set by smart
routing; never read elsewhere)
- 'Smart Model Routing' section in website/docs/integrations/providers.md
- tip in hermes_cli/tips.py
- entries in hermes_cli/dump.py + hermes_cli/web_server.py
- row in skills/autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent/SKILL.md
Tests:
- Deleted tests/agent/test_smart_model_routing.py
- Rewrote tests/agent/test_credential_pool_routing.py to target the
simplified _resolve_turn_agent_config directly (preserves credential
pool propagation + 429 rotation coverage)
- Dropped 'cheap model' test from test_cli_provider_resolution.py
- Dropped resolve_turn_route patches from cli + gateway test_fast_command
— they now exercise the real method end-to-end
- Removed _smart_model_routing stub assignments from gateway/cron test
helpers
Targeted suites: 74/74 in the directly affected test files;
tests/agent + tests/cron + tests/cli pass except 5 failures that
already exist on main (cron silent-delivery + alias quick-command).
Replace the HERMES_ENABLE_NOUS_MANAGED_TOOLS env-var feature flag with
subscription-based detection. The Tool Gateway is now available to any
paid Nous subscriber without needing a hidden env var.
Core changes:
- managed_nous_tools_enabled() checks get_nous_auth_status() +
check_nous_free_tier() instead of an env var
- New use_gateway config flag per tool section (web, tts, browser,
image_gen) records explicit user opt-in and overrides direct API
keys at runtime
- New prefers_gateway(section) shared helper in tool_backend_helpers.py
used by all 4 tool runtimes (web, tts, image gen, browser)
UX flow:
- hermes model: after Nous login/model selection, shows a curses
prompt listing all gateway-eligible tools with current status.
User chooses to enable all, enable only unconfigured tools, or skip.
Defaults to Enable for new users, Skip when direct keys exist.
- hermes tools: provider selection now manages use_gateway flag —
selecting Nous Subscription sets it, selecting any other provider
clears it
- hermes status: renamed section to Nous Tool Gateway, added
free-tier upgrade nudge for logged-in free users
- curses_radiolist: new description parameter for multi-line context
that survives the screen clear
Runtime behavior:
- Each tool runtime (web_tools, tts_tool, image_generation_tool,
browser_use) checks prefers_gateway() before falling back to
direct env-var credentials
- get_nous_subscription_features() respects use_gateway flags,
suppressing direct credential detection when the user opted in
Removed:
- HERMES_ENABLE_NOUS_MANAGED_TOOLS env var and all references
- apply_nous_provider_defaults() silent TTS auto-set
- get_nous_subscription_explainer_lines() static text
- Override env var warnings (use_gateway handles this properly now)
Group A (3 tests): 'No LLM provider configured' RuntimeError
- test_user_message_surrogates_sanitized, test_counters_initialized_in_init,
test_openai_prompt_tokens_unchanged
- Root cause: AIAgent.__init__ now requires base_url alongside api_key to
skip resolve_provider_client() (which returns None when API keys are
blanked in CI). Added base_url='http://localhost:1234/v1' to test
agent construction.
Group B (5 tests): Discord slash command auto-registration
- test_auto_registers_missing_gateway_commands, test_auto_registered_command_*,
test_register_skill_group_*
- Root cause: xdist workers that loaded a discord mock WITHOUT
app_commands.Command/Group caused _register_slash_commands() to fail
silently. Added comprehensive shared discord mock in
tests/gateway/conftest.py (same pattern as existing telegram mock).
Group C (5 errors): Discord reply mode 'NoneType has no DMChannel'
- All TestReplyToText tests
- Root cause: FakeDMChannel was not a subclass of real discord.DMChannel,
so isinstance() checks in _handle_message failed when running in full
suite (real discord installed). Made FakeDMChannel inherit from
discord.DMChannel when available. Removed fragile monkeypatch approach.
Group D (2 tests): detect_provider_for_model wrong provider
- test_openrouter_slug_match (got 'ai-gateway'), test_bare_name_gets_
openrouter_slug (got 'copilot')
- Root cause: ai-gateway, copilot, and kilocode are multi-vendor
aggregators that list other providers' models (OpenRouter-style slugs).
They were being matched in Step 1 before OpenRouter. Added all three
to _AGGREGATORS set so they're skipped like nous/openrouter.
Group E (1 test): model_flow_custom StopIteration
- test_model_flow_custom_saves_verified_v1_base_url
- Root cause: 'Display name' prompt was added after the test was written.
The input iterator had 5 answers but the flow now asks 6 questions.
Added 6th empty string answer.
Group F (1 test): Telegram proxy env assertion
- test_uses_proxy_env_for_primary_and_fallback_transports
- Root cause: _resolve_proxy_url() now checks TELEGRAM_PROXY first
(via resolve_proxy_url('TELEGRAM_PROXY')). Test didn't clear this
env var, allowing potential leakage from other tests in xdist workers.
Added TELEGRAM_PROXY to the cleanup list.
During custom endpoint setup, users are now asked for a display name
with the auto-generated name as the default. Typing 'Ollama' or
'LM Studio' replaces the generic 'Local (localhost:11434)' in the
provider menu.
Extracts _auto_provider_name() for reuse and adds a name= parameter
to _save_custom_provider() so the caller can pass through the
user-chosen label.
* refactor: re-architect tests to mirror the codebase
* Update tests.yml
* fix: add missing tool_error imports after registry refactor
* fix(tests): replace patch.dict with monkeypatch to prevent env var leaks under xdist
patch.dict(os.environ) can leak TERMINAL_ENV across xdist workers,
causing test_code_execution tests to hit the Modal remote path.
* fix(tests): fix update_check and telegram xdist failures
- test_update_check: replace patch("hermes_cli.banner.os.getenv") with
monkeypatch.setenv("HERMES_HOME") — banner.py no longer imports os
directly, it uses get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants.
- test_telegram_conflict/approval_buttons: provide real exception classes
for telegram.error mock (NetworkError, TimedOut, BadRequest) so the
except clause in connect() doesn't fail with "catching classes that do
not inherit from BaseException" when xdist pollutes sys.modules.
* fix(tests): accept unavailable_models kwarg in _prompt_model_selection mock
