Add opt-in AST diagnostics for skill review without making Skills Guard stricter by default.
- Add hermes skills inspect --ast-deep to scan fetched skill bundles before installation
- Add hermes skills audit --deep to scan already-installed hub skills
- Keep AST analysis in tools/skills_ast_audit.py, separate from tools/skills_guard.py
- Label output as diagnostic hints, not security verdicts
- Cover dynamic import/access patterns: importlib, __import__(computed), getattr(computed), and __dict__[computed]
This follows the maintainer guidance from closed PR #7436: useful AST-level analysis belongs in an opt-in diagnostic path, not in Skills Guard's default heuristic scan.
Null bytes in API key values (introduced by copy-paste) crash
os.environ[k] = v with ValueError: embedded null byte, preventing
hermes from starting at all.
Move shutil.rmtree into a finally block so the temp directory is always
cleaned up, even when an exception occurs during download, extraction,
or file copying.
ntfy now ships as a self-contained plugin under plugins/platforms/ntfy/
instead of editing 8 core files (gateway/config.py Platform enum,
gateway/run.py factory + auth maps, cron/scheduler.py, toolsets.py,
hermes_cli/status.py, agent/prompt_builder.py, gateway/channel_directory.py,
tools/send_message_tool.py).
All routing goes through gateway/platform_registry via register_platform():
- adapter_factory, check_fn, validate_config, is_connected
- env_enablement_fn seeds PlatformConfig.extra from NTFY_* env vars so
gateway status reflects env-only setups without instantiating httpx
- standalone_sender_fn handles deliver=ntfy cron jobs when cron runs
out-of-process from the gateway
- allowed_users_env / allow_all_env hook into _is_user_authorized
- cron_deliver_env_var=NTFY_HOME_CHANNEL for cron home routing
- platform_hint surfaces in the system prompt
- pii_safe=True (topic names are the only identifier; no PII to redact)
Tests moved to tests/gateway/test_ntfy_plugin.py using _plugin_adapter_loader
so the module lives under plugin_adapter_ntfy in sys.modules and cannot
collide with sibling plugin-adapter tests on the same xdist worker. The
core-file grep tests (Platform.NTFY in source, hermes-ntfy in toolsets,
etc.) are replaced with plugin-shape tests covering register() metadata,
env_enablement_fn output, and standalone_sender_fn behavior.
68 tests pass under scripts/run_tests.sh.
First scratch workspace creation on an install now emits a one-shot
warning log + a 'tip_scratch_workspace' event on the task. Sentinel
file at ~/.hermes/kanban/.scratch_tip_shown silences subsequent
creations across the whole install.
Behavior unchanged — scratch is still ephemeral by design. This just
makes the design visible to new users (reported in user community:
'progress files vanished, no warning anywhere').
Docs (en + ko) updated to spell out 'Deleted when the task completes'
on the scratch bullet and 'Preserved on completion' on worktree/dir.
Path.resolve() before any I/O and confine backup writes to the resolved
parent directory. Adds explicit parent-equality assertions so static
analyzers see the containment guarantee, and walks WAL/SHM sidecars
through the same resolved-parent path so accidental .. segments are
collapsed before shutil.copy2.
Functionally equivalent to the original PR; preserves the corrupt bytes
to <db>.corrupt.<ts>.bak in the same directory, still raises
KanbanDbCorruptError from connect(). E2E with Stefan's exact hex header
+ malformed pages still passes. 163/163 kanban tests still pass.
* feat(portal): one-shot setup, status CLI, and Nous-included markers
Four small Portal-aware surfaces that drive subscription value without
adding friction for non-Portal users.
- hermes setup --portal: one-shot Nous OAuth + provider switch + Tool
Gateway opt-in. Shareable as a single command from docs/social.
- hermes portal {status,open,tools}: small surface over Portal auth +
Tool Gateway routing. Defaults to 'status' when no subcommand.
- Tool picker (hermes tools): when the user is logged into Nous, mark
Nous-managed provider rows with a star and 'Included with your Nous
subscription'. Suppressed when not authed — non-subscribers see the
picker unchanged.
- BYOK setup hint: a single dim line 'Available through Nous Portal
subscription.' appears when the user is being prompted for a paid
API key (Firecrawl, FAL, ElevenLabs, Browserbase, etc.) AND the
category has a Nous-managed sibling AND the user is not already
authed to Nous. Suppressed in all other cases.
Tested live end-to-end in an isolated HERMES_HOME with a simulated
authed and unauthed user. Targeted suite (tests/hermes_cli/
test_tools_config.py + test_setup.py) passes 97/97.
* fix: add portal to _BUILTIN_SUBCOMMANDS so plugin discovery fast-path skips it
GHSA-5qr3-c538-wm9j — half two of the bypass chain.
``_mount_plugin_api_routes`` imports each dashboard plugin's
manifest ``api`` field as a Python module via
``importlib.util.spec_from_file_location`` — arbitrary code
execution by design. Two primitives in the surrounding code
turned that "by design" RCE into a usable attack:
1. Absolute paths in the manifest swallow the plugin directory.
``Path('safe/dashboard') / '/tmp/evil.py'`` resolves to
``/tmp/evil.py``, so a single manifest line
``{"api": "/tmp/payload.py"}`` was enough to redirect the
importer at any Python file on disk.
2. ``..`` traversal in the manifest climbs out of the dashboard
directory. ``Path('plugins/safe/dashboard') /
'../../../tmp/evil.py'`` lands in ``/tmp/evil.py`` after
``resolve()`` — the static-asset handler
(``serve_plugin_asset``) already defends against this via
``is_relative_to``; the api-mount path didn't.
Fix at three layers so a regression in any one can't re-open the
advisory:
* New ``_safe_plugin_api_relpath`` validator runs at *discovery*
time and stores only sanitised relative paths on the plugin
entry's ``_api_file`` field. Absolute paths, ``..`` traversal,
empty / non-string values, and paths that ``resolve()`` outside
the plugin's ``dashboard/`` directory are rejected with a
warning naming the plugin. ``has_api`` follows the sanitised
value so the dashboard frontend doesn't render a fake "Backend
API" badge for plugins whose api was scrubbed.
* ``_mount_plugin_api_routes`` re-validates the resolved path
against the live filesystem just before the import — defence in
depth in case ``_dir`` is tampered with post-cache or a future
caller bypasses the discovery-time validator.
* Project plugins (``source == "project"``) are refused outright
for backend import. ``./.hermes/plugins/`` ships with the CWD,
so any threat model that includes "user opens a malicious repo"
treats it as attacker-controlled; project plugins can still
extend the UI via static JS/CSS but their Python ``api`` is no
longer auto-imported. Combined with the truthy env-gate fix
from the previous commit, the original advisory chain now
fails at two distinct choke points.
GHSA-5qr3-c538-wm9j — half one of the bypass chain.
``_discover_dashboard_plugins`` opted into the untrusted ``./.hermes/
plugins/`` source via ``if os.environ.get("HERMES_ENABLE_PROJECT_
PLUGINS"):`` — which is True for any non-empty string. ``=0``,
``=false``, ``=no``, ``=off`` all return non-empty strings and so
*enabled* the project source even though every operator (and the
agent loader, ``hermes_cli/plugins.py`` line 815) reads those values
as "disabled". An attacker who can land a manifest under the CWD's
``.hermes/plugins/`` directory — a malicious cloned repo, a worktree
checked out from a forked PR, a CI runner workspace — was therefore
guaranteed to get their manifest discovered the moment the user ran
``hermes dashboard`` from that directory, regardless of whether the
user thought they had project plugins disabled.
Switch to the shared ``utils.env_var_enabled`` helper used by the
agent loader so the gate accepts the documented truthy set (``1`` /
``true`` / ``yes`` / ``on``, case-insensitive) and treats everything
else — including ``0`` / ``false`` / ``no`` — as off.
Half two (path-traversal + project-source ``api`` import) lands in
the next commit. Together they break the RCE chain at two distinct
choke points so a future regression in either one alone can't
re-open the advisory.
Follow-up to PR #28832 — the dashboard plugin routes now accept slashed
names like `observability/langfuse` and `image_gen/openai`, but
`_sanitize_plugin_name` still rejected forward slash and so dashboard
update + remove on those plugins fell through to '404 not found' even
though they exist on disk.
Adds an opt-in `allow_subdir=True` flag that:
- Permits internal forward slashes (category-namespaced plugin keys
emitted by `_discover_all_plugins`).
- Strips leading and trailing slashes.
- Still rejects `..` and backslash, and still asserts the resolved
target lives inside `plugins_dir`.
Opted in at the two read-paths that operate on installed plugins:
`_require_installed_plugin` (CLI update/remove) and
`_user_installed_plugin_dir` (dashboard update/remove). The install
path keeps the default (`allow_subdir=False`) because freshly-cloned
plugins always land top-level under `~/.hermes/plugins/<name>/`.
Adds 6 targeted unit tests covering the new flag's allow/reject matrix.
Removes the global `uppercase` + `font-mondwest` from the App.tsx root
that forced every page to opt-out, replaces stacked-alpha text colors
with semantic tokens for WCAG-AA contrast across all 7 themes, and
applies the new `text-display` utility from @nous-research/ui@0.16.0
on intentional brand chrome (page titles, sidebar headings, segmented
filters) only. Bumps every sub-12px arbitrary text size to text-xs.
Also widens the dashboard plugin routes (/api/dashboard/agent-plugins/
{name:path}/...) so category-namespaced plugins like observability/
langfuse and image_gen/openai can be enable/disabled from the dashboard
— previously the FE encodeURIComponent-ed the slash and the backend
{name} route rejected it. _validate_plugin_name still blocks .. and
backslash, and strips leading/trailing slash.
Touches sessions/env/keys page chrome and adds two new i18n keys
(`overview`, `showMore`/`showLess`) across all 18 locales.
Squashes 19 commits from PR #28832.

- test_browser_secret_exfil: mock _run_browser_command instead of
launching real Chrome (secret check is pre-launch, browser is
irrelevant to the assertion)
- test_web_server: add time.sleep(0.05) after pub.send_text() to
yield the event loop before receive_text(). TestClient's sync mode
can race the broadcast handler otherwise, hanging the test.
* fix(minimax-oauth): refresh short-lived access tokens per request
MiniMax OAuth issues ~15-minute access tokens. The Anthropic SDK caches
api_key as a static string at client construction, so a session that
resolves credentials once at startup keeps sending the same bearer until
MiniMax returns 401 mid-session.
Swap the static string for a callable token provider, reusing the existing
Entra-ID bearer-hook infrastructure in build_anthropic_client. The callable
re-reads auth.json on each invocation and calls _refresh_minimax_oauth_state,
which is a no-op when the token still has more than 60s of life left and
refreshes proactively otherwise. Refreshes persist to auth.json so other
processes (gateway, cron) see them immediately.
The wire-up lives at the agent-init / model-switch boundary rather than in
resolve_runtime_provider, so aux client paths that hand the api_key string
to OpenAI(api_key=...) are unaffected.
* docs: add infographic for minimax-oauth token refresh
Two bugs surfaced by PR #24356 migrating Discord into the registry:
1. plugins/platforms/discord/adapter.py::_is_connected — read DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN
via hermes_cli.gateway.get_env_value (the abstraction tests patch) instead
of os.getenv directly. The legacy non-registry path used get_env_value;
bypassing it broke test_setup_openclaw_migration which patches
gateway_mod.get_env_value to simulate a hermetic env.
2. hermes_cli/gateway.py::_platform_status — when entry.is_connected is
defined and returns False, return 'not configured' immediately. Don't
fall back to entry.check_fn(), which would let 'SDK is installed'
override 'no token configured' and incorrectly report the platform as
ready. The fallback to check_fn is the right behaviour only when
is_connected is None (not registered).
Fixes 5 test failures observed on CI for PR #24356:
- tests/hermes_cli/test_setup.py::test_setup_gateway_skips_service_install_when_systemctl_missing
- tests/hermes_cli/test_setup.py::test_setup_gateway_in_container_shows_docker_guidance
- tests/hermes_cli/test_setup_irc.py::TestIRCGatewaySetupFreshInstall::test_setup_gateway_irc_counts_as_messaging_platform
- tests/hermes_cli/test_setup_openclaw_migration.py::TestGetSectionConfigSummary::test_gateway_returns_none_without_tokens
- tests/hermes_cli/test_setup_openclaw_migration.py::TestSetupWizardSkipsConfiguredSections::test_sections_skipped_when_migration_imported_settings
Same _platform_status bug exists for sibling plugin platforms (teams,
google_chat) whose check_fn returns true on SDK install alone; their
tests just never exercised the registry path before. The bug only became
test-visible when Discord migrated into the registry.
Validation: 11,167 tests across tests/gateway/ + tests/cron/ +
tests/tools/test_send_message_tool.py + tests/hermes_cli/ pass with zero
failures.
First migration of an existing built-in platform adapter to the plugin
system established by IRC / Teams / LINE / Google Chat. Closes#24325;
advances the umbrella refactor in #3823.
Matches Teams' shape exactly — adapter under ``plugins/platforms/discord/``
with the standard ``__init__.py`` / ``adapter.py`` / ``plugin.yaml``
shell, ``register(ctx)`` entry point, **no back-compat shim** at the old
import path, and full parity for the four hooks Teams uses plus the
``apply_yaml_config_fn`` hook that landed in #25443 (the Discord plugin
is the first consumer of that hook):
* ``standalone_sender_fn`` — out-of-process cron delivery via REST API
* ``setup_fn`` — interactive ``hermes setup gateway`` wizard
* ``apply_yaml_config_fn`` — translate ``config.yaml`` ``discord:`` keys
into ``DISCORD_*`` env vars (replaces the hardcoded block in
``gateway/config.py``)
* ``is_connected`` — declares connection state from ``DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN``
* ``check_fn`` — lazy-installs ``discord.py`` on demand
* plus ``allowed_users_env``, ``allow_all_env``, ``cron_deliver_env_var``,
``max_message_length``, ``emoji``, ``required_env``, ``install_hint``
* ``gateway/platforms/discord.py`` (5,101 LOC) →
``plugins/platforms/discord/adapter.py`` (git rename, R090).
* New ``plugins/platforms/discord/{__init__.py, plugin.yaml}`` with
``requires_env`` / ``optional_env`` declarations.
* Append ``register(ctx)`` block + new hook implementations
(``_standalone_send``, ``interactive_setup``, ``_apply_yaml_config``,
``_clean_discord_user_ids``, ``_is_connected``, ``_build_adapter``,
plus helpers ``_DISCORD_CHANNEL_TYPE_PROBE_CACHE`` etc.) to the
adapter.
* Replace the ``Platform.DISCORD elif`` branch in
``GatewayRunner._create_adapter()`` (−9 LOC) with a generic post-creation
hook (+6 LOC) in the registry path: any plugin adapter that declares a
``gateway_runner`` attribute now gets it auto-injected. Webhook's
built-in branch is unchanged (it doesn't go through the registry path).
* Move ``_send_discord`` (190 LOC) and helpers
(``_DISCORD_CHANNEL_TYPE_PROBE_CACHE``, ``_remember_channel_is_forum``,
``_probe_is_forum_cached``, ``_derive_forum_thread_name``) from
``tools/send_message_tool.py`` into the plugin as ``_standalone_send``.
* Wire via ``standalone_sender_fn=_standalone_send`` (Teams pattern; same
gap fixed in #21804 for other plugin platforms).
* Replace the Discord ``elif`` in ``tools/send_message_tool.py``
``_send_to_platform`` with a 10-line registry-hook dispatch.
* Drop the ``DiscordAdapter`` import and the
``Platform.DISCORD: DiscordAdapter.MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH`` ``_MAX_LENGTHS``
entry — the registry's ``max_message_length=2000`` covers it.
* Move ``_setup_discord`` and ``_clean_discord_user_ids`` (68 LOC) from
``hermes_cli/setup.py`` into the plugin as ``interactive_setup``.
* Wire via ``setup_fn=interactive_setup``. CLI helpers (``prompt``,
``print_info``, etc.) are lazy-imported so the plugin's module-load
surface stays minimal.
* Remove ``"discord": _s._setup_discord`` from
``hermes_cli/gateway.py::_builtin_setup_fn``.
* Remove the entire 32-line ``_PLATFORMS["discord"]`` static dict entry —
Discord's setup metadata is now discovered dynamically via
``_all_platforms()`` from the registry entry.
* Move the 59-line ``discord_cfg`` YAML→env bridge from
``gateway/config.py::load_gateway_config()`` into the plugin as
``_apply_yaml_config``. Covers ``require_mention``,
``thread_require_mention``, ``free_response_channels``, ``auto_thread``,
``reactions``, ``ignored_channels``, ``allowed_channels``,
``no_thread_channels``, ``allow_mentions.{everyone,roles,users,
replied_user}``, and ``reply_to_mode`` (including the YAML 1.1
``off``-as-False coercion and the ``extra.reply_to_mode`` fallback).
* Wire via ``apply_yaml_config_fn=_apply_yaml_config``.
* The hook runs BEFORE ``_apply_env_overrides`` and after the generic
shared-key loop, exactly as documented in
``website/docs/developer-guide/adding-platform-adapters.md``.
* Behavior is preserved exactly — every assignment still uses
``not os.getenv(...)`` guards so env vars take precedence over YAML.
All 78 references to the old import path are rewritten — no back-compat
shim:
* 51 ``from gateway.platforms.discord import X`` →
``from plugins.platforms.discord.adapter import X``
* 5 ``import gateway.platforms.discord as discord_platform`` →
``import plugins.platforms.discord.adapter as discord_platform``
* 1 ``from gateway.platforms import discord as discord_mod`` →
``from plugins.platforms.discord import adapter as discord_mod``
* 21 ``mock.patch("gateway.platforms.discord.X")`` strings →
``mock.patch("plugins.platforms.discord.adapter.X")``
* 1 docstring reference in ``hermes_cli/commands.py``
* 1 import in ``tools/send_message_tool.py`` (now removed entirely)
The import-safety test in ``tests/gateway/test_discord_imports.py`` is
updated to purge the new canonical module name from ``sys.modules``.
**38 files changed, +621 / −473** — net positive due to the YAML hook
implementation (89 new LOC in the plugin trading for 59 deleted in core),
but every line moved has a clear plugin home now. The git rename is
detected at R090 because the adapter gained ~340 LOC of moved-in hook
implementations (``_standalone_send`` + ``interactive_setup`` +
``_apply_yaml_config`` + helpers).
* All 568 Discord-specific tests pass across 25 ``test_discord_*.py``
files plus voice/send/text-batching/reload-skills/stream-consumer/
integration tests.
* All 147 tests in the YAML-touching subset
(``test_discord_reply_mode``, ``test_discord_free_response``,
``test_discord_allowed_channels``, ``test_discord_allowed_mentions``,
``test_discord_channel_controls``, ``test_discord_reactions``,
``test_discord_thread_persistence``, ``test_runtime_footer``) pass —
this is the strongest signal that the YAML→env hook behaves
identically to the legacy block.
* Broader gateway/cron/integration sweep (1297 tests) introduces zero
new failures vs ``main``. Pre-existing failures in
``tests/gateway/test_tts_media_routing.py`` and
``tests/e2e/test_platform_commands.py`` reproduce identically on the
unchanged ``main`` revision.
* Plugin discovery sanity check confirms Discord registers alongside the
other four platform plugins:
Registered platforms: ['discord', 'google_chat', 'irc', 'line', 'teams']
These Discord-shaped tendrils in core were **deliberately not moved** —
they are generic platform-registry concerns affecting every platform,
not Discord-specific:
* ``gateway/config.py:1205`` ``DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN → config.token`` env
enablement — same shape Telegram has. The existing
``env_enablement_fn`` registry hook only seeds ``extra``, not
``.token``, so it can't replace this without an adapter refactor to
read from ``extra["bot_token"]``.
* ``gateway/run.py`` voice-mode hooks
(``self.adapters.get(Platform.DISCORD)`` for
``start_voice_mode``/``stop_voice_mode``), role-based auth,
``DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS`` branch in ``_is_user_authorized``,
``_UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS`` frozenset, and the per-platform
allowlist maps — generic platform-registry concerns.
* ``Platform.DISCORD`` enum literal — stable identifier used as dict
keys throughout the codebase; removing it is a separate refactor with
no real benefit.
* ``tools/discord_tool.py`` and ``tools/environments/local.py`` —
first-class agent tools and env-passthrough config, neither is the
gateway adapter.
Each of these is worth its own scoping issue when the time comes.
@memosr's PR #27612 put the inference_base_url allowlist check only at the
Nous proxy adapter forward boundary. The poisoned URL, however, lands in
``auth.json`` upstream of that — at five refresh / agent-key-mint payload
read sites inside ``resolve_nous_runtime_credentials`` and
``_extend_state_from_refresh``. Without gating those sites, a single MITM
on a refresh response persists the attacker's URL across restarts, even
if the proxy adapter's defense-in-depth check would later catch it on
the way out.
Replace ``_optional_base_url`` with ``_validate_nous_inference_url_from_network``
at all five Portal-network reads:
- hermes_cli/auth.py L4840 (refresh-only access-token path)
- hermes_cli/auth.py L4876 (mint payload path)
- hermes_cli/auth.py L5154 (terminal-runtime access-token refresh)
- hermes_cli/auth.py L5262 (cross-process serialized refresh)
- hermes_cli/auth.py L5317 (terminal-runtime mint payload)
The state-read path at L5025 (``state.get("inference_base_url")``) is
deliberately NOT gated — pre-existing state in ``auth.json`` is either
already validated (it came from one of the five network sites above) or
set by a trusted local actor (manual edit, ``_setup_nous_auth`` test
fixture, ``hermes login nous`` against a staging endpoint via the
documented ``NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL`` env override). Direct write_file /
patch tampering with auth.json is independently blocked by PR #14157.
Adds tests/hermes_cli/test_nous_inference_url_validation.py covering:
- validator https + host + edge-case rules (12 cases)
- all 5 network call sites grep contracts (no _optional_base_url
regression possible without test failure)
- proxy adapter defense-in-depth check still present
- env override path NOT gated (documented dev/staging behaviour)
18 new tests, all 119 Nous-auth tests green.
The Nous Portal proxy adapter forwards minted ``agent_key`` bearer tokens
to whatever ``base_url`` ``resolve_nous_runtime_credentials()`` returns,
which is read directly from the refresh / agent-key-mint response and
persisted to ``~/.hermes/auth.json``. With no validation beyond a
trailing-slash strip, a poisoned URL (Portal-side MITM, or local write
to auth.json) gets forwarded the legitimate bearer on every subsequent
proxy request — exfiltrating the user's inference budget and opening a
response-injection channel back into the IDE / chat client.
Add ``_validate_nous_inference_url_from_network()`` in ``hermes_cli.auth``:
an https + host-allowlist check that returns None for anything outside
``inference-api.nousresearch.com``, so callers fall back to the
documented default rather than ship the bearer to an attacker.
This commit wires the validator into the proxy adapter at
``nous_portal.py``. A follow-up commit wires it into the four refresh /
mint sites in ``auth.py`` so the poisoned URL never lands in auth.json
in the first place.
The env-var override path (``NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL``) bypasses
validation by design — that's the documented staging/dev escape hatch
and the env source is already trusted (the user set it themselves).

Mirrors the architecture established by the web (#25182), browser
(#25214), and video_gen (#25126) plugin migrations:
* `tools/fal_common.py` — stateless atoms shared by both FAL-backed
plugins (image_gen + video_gen). Holds the lazy `fal_client` import
helper, `_ManagedFalSyncClient`, `_normalize_fal_queue_url_format`,
`_extract_http_status`. Stateful pieces (`fal_client` module global,
`_managed_fal_client*` cache, `_submit_fal_request`,
`_resolve_managed_fal_gateway`, `_get_managed_fal_client`)
intentionally stay on `tools.image_generation_tool` so the existing
`monkeypatch.setattr(image_tool, ...)` patch sites keep working
unchanged.
* `plugins/video_gen/fal/__init__.py` — drops its inline
`_load_fal_client` duplicate; consumes `tools.fal_common.import_fal_client`.
* `plugins/image_gen/fal/{plugin.yaml,__init__.py}` — new plugin.
`FalImageGenProvider` is a thin registration adapter that resolves
the legacy module via `import tools.image_generation_tool as _it`
and calls `_it.image_generate_tool` + `_it._resolve_fal_model` at
call time. The 18-model catalog, `_build_fal_payload`, managed-
gateway selection, and Clarity Upscaler chaining all remain in
`tools.image_generation_tool` as the single source of truth —
the plugin is a registration adapter, not a parallel implementation.
* `tools/image_generation_tool.py::_dispatch_to_plugin_provider` —
drops the `configured == "fal"` skip. Setting `image_gen.provider:
fal` now routes through the registry like any other provider; the
plugin re-enters this module's pipeline so behavior is identical.
Unset `image_gen.provider` still falls through to the in-tree
pipeline (preserves no-config-with-FAL_KEY UX from #15696).
* `hermes_cli/tools_config.py` — drops the hardcoded "FAL.ai" row from
`TOOL_CATEGORIES["image_gen"]["providers"]` (now injected by
`_plugin_image_gen_providers` like every other backend) and the
`getattr(provider, "name") == "fal"` skip that protected against
duplication with the hardcoded row. The "Nous Subscription" row
stays as a setup-flow entry — same shape browser kept "Nous
Subscription (Browser Use cloud)" after #25214.
* `tests/plugins/image_gen/test_fal_provider.py` — 14 cases covering
the ABC surface, call-time indirection (verifying
`monkeypatch.setattr(image_tool, "image_generate_tool", ...)` takes
effect through the plugin), response-shape stamping, exception
handling, and registry wiring.
* `tests/plugins/image_gen/check_parity_vs_main.py` — subprocess
harness mirroring `tests/plugins/browser/check_parity_vs_main.py`.
Pins one path to origin/main, one to the worktree; runs six
scenarios (unset, explicit-fal-no-creds, explicit-fal-with-creds,
explicit-fal-with-model, typo provider, managed-gateway-only) and
diffs the reduced shape `{dispatch_kind, provider_name, model}`
per scenario. The only acceptable diff is "legacy_fal → plugin
(fal)" for explicit-FAL paths — every other delta is flagged as
a regression.
* `tests/hermes_cli/test_image_gen_picker.py::test_fal_surfaced_alongside_other_plugins`
— flips the previous `test_fal_skipped_to_avoid_duplicate` to
match the new shape (FAL is a plugin now, no dedup needed).
Verified: 195/195 tests across
`tests/{tools/test_image_generation*,tools/test_managed_media_gateways,plugins/image_gen,plugins/video_gen,hermes_cli/test_image_gen_picker}.py`
pass on this branch with no test patches modified outside the picker
test that asserted the old skip behaviour.
Fixes#26241
PR #27590 removed auxiliary.session_search from DEFAULT_CONFIG (single-shape
tool now returns DB content directly without an aux LLM), but the slot
remained in _AUX_TASK_SLOTS (web_server.py) and AUX_TASKS (ModelsPage.tsx).
Removing the dead entries while we're touching these tables.
triage_specifier, kanban_decomposer, profile_describer exist in
DEFAULT_CONFIG auxiliary section but weren't in _AUX_TASK_SLOTS,
_AUX_TASKS, or the dashboard AUX_TASKS array — so users couldn't
configure them through hermes model or the web dashboard.
9â\x86\x9212 aux slots across all three UI surfaces.
When Bitwarden Secrets Manager supplies a provider key, 'hermes model'
and the setup wizard show 'credentials ✓' with no hint of where the
key came from — identical to the .env case. Users assume the integration
isn't wired up and re-enter the key (or hit Enter and cancel).
env_loader now tracks which env vars were injected by an external secret
source and exposes get_secret_source() / format_secret_source_suffix() so
the provider flows can render 'Anthropic credentials: sk-ant-... ✓
(from Bitwarden)' instead of an unlabeled checkmark.
Wired into _prompt_api_key (kimi, z.ai, minimax, opencode, ...), the
Anthropic provider flow, the Bedrock flow, and the GitHub Copilot token
display.
Future secret sources (Vault, 1Password, etc.) drop in by setting their
own label in _SECRET_SOURCES; format_secret_source_suffix() has a generic
fallback so no call sites need updating.
curses.init_pair(N, 8, -1) uses extended color 8 ("bright black" /
dim gray) which does not exist on 8-color terminals (COLORS == 8,
valid range 0-7). This crashes the entire plugins UI, session
browser, and radio picker in Docker containers with:
curses.error: init_pair() : color number is greater than COLORS-1
Replace all 5 occurrences across plugins_cmd.py, main.py, and
curses_ui.py with min(8, curses.COLORS - 1), which falls back to
COLOR_WHITE (7) on 8-color terminals.
Closes#13688
The upstream cua-driver installer resolves the latest release and attempts
to download an architecture-specific asset. When the release only ships
arm64 builds (as of v0.1.6), the installer fails with a raw 404 on Intel
macOS with no clear path forward.
Add _check_cua_driver_asset_for_arch() that probes the GitHub Releases API
before running the installer. If the latest release has no x86_64/amd64
asset, print a clear warning and link to the upstream issue. On arm64 or
API failure, fail open and let the installer proceed as before.
Fixes#24530
The bundled-skill sync stamp added in the cherry-picked salvage commit
parsed .git/HEAD and looked for a loose ref file in the worktree gitdir
only, so two real cases hit the unresolved branch:
- repos after `git gc` where active refs live in packed-refs
- linked worktrees, whose branch ref lives in <commondir>/refs/heads/
(verified on the worktree this salvage was built in)
Both fell back to a constant-string fingerprint, so post-commit launches
would never re-run the real skill sync. Now we resolve packed-refs and
check both the worktree gitdir and the common dir for loose refs.
Adds three tests covering: packed-refs resolution, worktree common-dir
packed lookup, worktree common-dir loose lookup, and the explicit
'unresolved' marker (still stable + version-fallback-safe).
* fix(skills): skip dependency dirs in skill scan
* fix(skills): widen sibling rglob scanners to use shared exclusion set
Follow-up to PR #29968. The contributor's PR widened EXCLUDED_SKILL_DIRS
in the canonical walker (iter_skill_index_files), which fixes the
user-visible discovery path. This commit sweeps the ~12 other
rglob('SKILL.md') sites that did their own ad-hoc filtering — most only
checked .git/.hub, some had no filter at all — so dependency dirs
(.venv, node_modules, site-packages, etc.) cannot leak ghost skills
through the secondary paths.
Adds agent.skill_utils.is_excluded_skill_path(path) helper. Migrates
all 13 sites to use it. Removes 3 hardcoded duplicate filter sets.
Sites touched:
agent/curator_backup.py - skill backup file count
gateway/run.py - disabled-skill response (2 sites)
hermes_cli/dump.py - skill count in env dump
hermes_cli/profile_describer.py- profile description (2 sites)
hermes_cli/profile_distribution.py - profile install count
hermes_cli/profiles.py - profile skill count
hermes_cli/skills_hub.py - category detection
tools/skill_manager_tool.py - skill name lookup (already used set, now uses helper)
tools/skill_usage.py - usage tracking + skill dir lookup (2 sites)
tools/skills_hub.py - optional skills find + scan (2 sites)
tools/skills_sync.py - bundled skills sync
E2E verified with the exact reported shape
(bring/scripts/.venv/.../typer/.agents/skills/typer/SKILL.md): no
sibling site picks up the ghost skill, all five legit-skill counts
still return 1.

* feat(secrets): Bitwarden Secrets Manager integration with lazy bws install
Pull API keys from Bitwarden Secrets Manager at process startup
instead of storing them all in plaintext in ~/.hermes/.env. One
bootstrap token (BWS_ACCESS_TOKEN) replaces N per-provider keys, and
rotating a credential becomes a single change in the Bitwarden web
app.
Bitwarden defaults to source of truth: secrets pulled from BSM
overwrite any matching env vars on startup so rotations actually
take effect. Set secrets.bitwarden.override_existing: false in
config.yaml to invert.
The bws binary is auto-downloaded into ~/.hermes/bin/bws on first
use (pinned to v2.0.0, SHA-256 verified against the GitHub release
checksum file). No apt, brew, or sudo required.
New surfaces:
hermes secrets bitwarden setup — interactive wizard
hermes secrets bitwarden status — config + binary + token state
hermes secrets bitwarden sync — dry-run fetch / --apply exports
hermes secrets bitwarden disable — flip enabled: false
hermes secrets bitwarden install — just download the binary
Failures (missing binary, bad token, no network) never block Hermes
startup — they emit a one-line warning to stderr and continue with
whatever credentials .env already had.
Docs: website/docs/user-guide/secrets/{index,bitwarden}.md
Tests: tests/test_bitwarden_secrets.py (26 tests, hermetic — bws

The original PR fixed the ext_dir and built-tui paths but missed the
sibling pip-wheel path at line 1155. Without this, wheel installs would
lose --expose-gc entirely (the env-var append at the call site was
already removed). All three production node-launch sites now pass
--expose-gc via argv consistently.
Node refuses to start when NODE_OPTIONS contains --expose-gc:
node: --expose-gc is not allowed in NODE_OPTIONS
NODE_OPTIONS is restricted to a small allowlist of flags that are safe
to inject via env (since any process able to set env vars on a node
child could otherwise enable arbitrary capabilities). --expose-gc is
not on that list and never has been -- it must be passed as a direct
CLI flag.
_launch_tui() was appending --expose-gc to NODE_OPTIONS before spawning
the TUI's node process, which made `hermes --tui` fail to start on
every modern node release. The intent (manual GC for long sessions to
avoid fatal-OOM) is preserved by inserting --expose-gc directly into
the node argv in _make_tui_argv() -- same effect, but actually allowed.
--max-old-space-size=8192 stays in NODE_OPTIONS: it *is* allowlisted,
and keeping it there means downstream node spawns inherit the same
heap cap without having to re-thread the flag through every spawn site.
The dev paths (`tsx src/entry.tsx` and `npm start` fallback) are left
alone -- they don't accept node flags directly, and the production
dist path is the one users actually hit via `hermes --tui`.
Repro before fix:
$ hermes --tui
/usr/bin/node: --expose-gc is not allowed in NODE_OPTIONS
Allow custom OpenAI-compatible providers declared under `custom_providers:`
to set provider-specific `extra_body` fields and have Hermes merge them into
chat-completions requests when the matching custom endpoint is active.
This is a manual per-provider override rather than a model-name heuristic.
OpenAI-compatible Gemma thinking support is real, but the on-wire payload
shape is backend-specific: some servers want top-level `enable_thinking`,
while vLLM Gemma and NIM-style endpoints expect `chat_template_kwargs`.
A per-provider override is safer than picking one assumed payload.
Example config:
```yaml
custom_providers:
- name: gemma-local
base_url: http://localhost:8080/v1
model: google/gemma-4-31b-it
extra_body:
enable_thinking: true
reasoning_effort: high
```
For vLLM Gemma or NIM-style endpoints, use the nested shape those servers
expect:
```yaml
extra_body:
chat_template_kwargs:
enable_thinking: true
```
Changes:
- `hermes_cli/config.py`: preserve `extra_body` in normalized
`custom_providers:` entries and allow it in the validated field set.
- `hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py`: propagate custom-provider `extra_body`
as `request_overrides.extra_body` for named custom runtime resolution,
including credential-pool paths.
- `agent/agent_init.py`: at agent init, locate the matching custom-provider
entry by `base_url` (+ optional model) and merge its `extra_body` into
`AIAgent.request_overrides`, with caller-provided overrides winning on
conflicting top-level keys.
- `plugins/model-providers/custom/__init__.py`: keep existing CustomProfile
behavior (Ollama `num_ctx`, `think=False` when reasoning disabled);
user-configured `extra_body` flows through `request_overrides`.
- `website/docs/integrations/providers.md`: document the explicit
`extra_body` override and the vLLM/Gemma `chat_template_kwargs` variant.
- Tests cover config normalization, runtime propagation, model matching,
trailing-slash equivalence, fallback when no `model` field is set, and
caller-override merging precedence.
Verified end-to-end against `CustomProfile` via `ChatCompletionsTransport`:
configured `extra_body` reaches `kwargs.extra_body` on the wire request,
and coexists with profile-generated entries (Ollama `num_ctx`, `think=False`)
without clobber.
Salvaged from #29022 onto current `main`. Cosmetic typing edit in
`plugins/model-providers/custom/__init__.py` and a stale-base docs revert
in `providers.md` were dropped during cherry-pick.
Closes#29022
* ci(tests): install ripgrep from prebuilt tarball instead of apt
apt-get update + install of ripgrep takes ~4 min on the GHA Ubuntu
runners (the apt-get update against archive.ubuntu.com is the slow
part; ripgrep itself is small). Switching to the upstream musl
binary tarball cuts the step to a few seconds.
- Pinned to ripgrep 15.1.0 with sha256 verification (same hash as
published in the releases sha256 sidecar file).
- Drops the `rg` binary into /usr/local/bin so it is on PATH for
every subsequent step without GITHUB_PATH manipulation.
- Applied to both the test and e2e jobs in tests.yml.
* fix(cli): compile syntax check to tempdir, not source __pycache__
`_validate_critical_files_syntax` runs `py_compile.compile()` on each
critical bootstrap file after a successful `git pull`. The default
`py_compile` writes the resulting `.pyc` next to the source under
`__pycache__/`, which causes two real problems:
1. Parallel test workers walking the same source tree (e.g. running
the suite under per-file process isolation) can race against each
other on the `__pycache__` write — manifests as flaky 'directory
not empty' errors during teardown.
2. In production, the post-pull syntax check leaves a `.pyc` behind
that the next interpreter run might pick up — fine when the
interpreter version matches, sketchy if it doesn't.
Fix: write the compiled output to a `tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()`
that's discarded on function exit. We only care about the compile-or-not
signal, not the artifact.
* test(runner): per-file process isolation, drop manual state reset + xdist
Replace fragile manual _reset_module_state test fixtures with robust
per-file subprocess isolation. Each test file runs in a fresh
`python -m pytest <file>` subprocess via ThreadPoolExecutor. No xdist,
no custom pytest plugin, no shared worker state.
Key changes:
* scripts/run_tests_parallel.py — new runner: discovers test files,
runs N in parallel via ThreadPoolExecutor, captures stdout per file,
treats exit code 5 (no tests collected) as pass, kills all children
on exit. Change from cpu_count to cpu_count*2. The runner is
I/O-bound (waiting on subprocess.communicate() from pytest children)
The parent process does almost no CPU work, so 2x oversubscription
keeps more pipes full. When a file fails, immediately show the last
30 lines of pytest output (stack traces + FAILED summary) plus a
ready-to-copy repro command:
python -m pytest tests/agent/test_auxiliary_client.py
* scripts/run_tests.sh — delegates to run_tests_parallel.py
* .github/workflows/tests.yml — test step: python
scripts/run_tests_parallel.py
* pyproject.toml — drop pytest-xdist, pytest-split; simplify addopts
* tests/conftest.py — remove ~200 lines of manual state-reset fixtures
* AGENTS.md — update Testing section for per-file design
* test(runner): speed gateway test antipattern scan up
* fix(test): web search provider plugin test missing xai
* fix(tests): make 14 test files pass under per-file subprocess isolation
Tests that relied on cross-file state pollution from xdist workers
fail when run in isolation (per-file subprocess model). Root causes
and fixes:
Tool registry not populated:
- test_video_generation_tool_surface_matrix: add discover_builtin_tools()
- test_web_providers_brave_free/ddgs/searxng/general: autouse fixtures
registering all 8 bundled web providers, reset after each test
- test_website_policy: same provider registration pattern
- test_web_tools_tavily: same pattern across 3 dispatch test classes
- Also add is_safe_url/check_website_access mocks where SSRF check
blocks example.com (DNS resolution fails in isolated envs)
Stale check_fn cache:
- test_kanban_tools: invalidate_check_fn_cache() + _clear_tool_defs_cache()
in both kanban guidance tests (prior test cached False for kanban_show)
- test_discord_tool: cache invalidation in setup/teardown
- test_homeassistant_tool: invalidate_check_fn_cache() before registry queries
Module-level state pollution:
- test_auxiliary_client: autouse fixture clearing _aux_unhealthy_until cache
- test_skill_commands: set_session_vars() instead of patch.dict(os.environ)
(ContextVar takes precedence over os.environ)
- test_dm_topics: overwrite sys.modules + separate telegram.constants mock
+ force-reimport of gateway.platforms.telegram
- test_terminal_tool_requirements: removed duplicate class declaration,
autouse _clear_caches fixture
* change(tests): run_tests.sh explicitly includes env vars
instead of manually dropping some vars, now we just only include some
* fix(tests): 5 more isolation/NixOS fixes
- test_approval_plugin_hooks: isolate HERMES_HOME so real user's
command_allowlist doesn't short-circuit the approval path
- test_google_chat: skipif when Platform.GOOGLE_CHAT not in enum
(feature not merged on this branch)
- test_write_deny: test systemd prefix against tmp_path instead of
/etc/systemd which resolves to /nix/store on NixOS
- test_pty_bridge: use shutil.which('cat') instead of /bin/cat
(doesn't exist on NixOS)
- profiles.py: rmtree onexc handler chmod's parent dirs too, fixing
profile deletion when copytree preserved read-only modes from
nix store
* fix(tests): clear unhealthy cache in autouse fixture for auxiliary_client
* fix(tests): skip send_message when telegram not installed; handle missing worker_id in browser_supervisor
* fix: py3.11 rmtree onexc compat + belt-and-suspenders unhealthy cache clear for expired codex test
* fix: address PR #29016 review feedback
- Remove tracked .pytest-cache/ artifact and add to .gitignore
- Fix stale 'xdist worker' comment in conftest.py
- Deduplicate web provider registration into tests/tools/conftest.py
shared helper (register_all_web_providers), replacing 8 copy-pasted
blocks across 6 test files
- Update PR description: remove stale recovered-test-files claim,
fix worker count to match code (cpu_count*2)
* fix: eliminate race in stale-cache achievements test
The background scan thread could complete and overwrite _SNAPSHOT_CACHE
before evaluate_all() returned the stale data — only 10 fake sessions
made the scan finish instantly. Added scan_delay param to _FakeSessionDB
and set it to 2s in the stale-cache test so the background thread can't
win the race.
Five call sites do os.chmod(path.parent, 0o700) without checking that
the parent resolves to a safe directory. If HERMES_HOME or another
path env var resolves to /, the chmod strips traversal permission from
the root inode and bricks the entire host.
Add secure_parent_dir() to hermes_constants.py that refuses to chmod
/ or any top-level directory (depth < 2). Replace all 5 call sites
with this helper.
Fixes#25821
After #28660's host-gating fix, users with provider=custom and base_url
pointed at a commercial endpoint (DeepSeek, Groq, Mistral, …) hit
no-key-required even when they had the vendor-named env var set
(DEEPSEEK_API_KEY, GROQ_API_KEY, …). The issue author flagged this as
'what users intuitively expect'.
Adds _host_derived_api_key() to derive an env var name from the base URL
host using the *registrable* label (second-to-last). Appended to all three
api_key_candidates chains (_resolve_named_custom_runtime direct-alias path,
named-custom path, _resolve_openrouter_runtime non-openrouter branch).
Lookalike resistance: api.deepseek.com.attacker.test resolves to vendor
label 'attacker', NOT 'deepseek' — DEEPSEEK_API_KEY stays put. IPs and
loopback yield no vendor label. Already-handled vendors (OPENAI/OPENROUTER/
OLLAMA) are filtered to prevent bypass of the explicit host-gated paths.
Adds 6 tests covering positive paths (DeepSeek, Groq), the lookalike attack,
loopback rejection, the already-handled-vendor filter, and direct helper
unit tests.
Also adds erhnysr to AUTHOR_MAP.
- Preserve OPENROUTER_API_KEY for explicit mirror/proxy configs when
requested provider is openrouter and OPENROUTER_BASE_URL is set
- Gate OPENAI_API_KEY and OPENROUTER_API_KEY in named custom provider
path (_resolve_named_custom_runtime) on authoritative hosts
- Gate same keys in direct-alias path
- Update tests to reflect secure-by-default behavior for local endpoints
Custom endpoint provider was forwarding OPENAI_API_KEY and OLLAMA_API_KEY
to arbitrary hosts. Keys should only be sent to their authoritative domains
(openai.com, ollama.com) or when explicitly configured via pool/env.
- Gate OPENAI_API_KEY to openai.com hosts only
- Gate OLLAMA_API_KEY to ollama.com hosts only
- Return 'no-key-required' for unrecognized custom endpoints
- Update tests to reflect secure-by-default behavior

browse_skills() is the TUI gateway's API for the web UI skills browser
(tui_gateway/server.py:6574). It had the same dedup-by-name bug as
do_browse() and unified_search() fixed in the parent commit: r.name is
not unique for browse-sh skills (Airbnb, Booking.com, Zillow all publish
"search-listings"), so the dedup loop silently dropped all but the first
skill with each task name.
Switch to r.identifier, which is always globally unique.
Add a regression test asserting that two browse-sh skills with the same
name but different hostnames both appear in the browse_skills() result.
Browse.sh exposes skills by task name (e.g. "search-listings"), which is
shared across hundreds of sites. Deduplicating by name silently dropped
every browse-sh skill after the first one with a given task name — e.g.
only Airbnb's "search-listings" would survive, collapsing Booking.com,
Zillow, and every other site's variant into nothing.
Switch unified_search() and do_browse() to use r.identifier as the dedup
key. identifier is always globally unique (e.g.
"browse-sh/airbnb.com/search-listings-ddgioa"), so same-named skills from
different browse-sh hostnames are preserved as distinct results.
Update existing TestUnifiedSearchDedup tests to model the real scenario
(same identifier appearing from two sources) and add a regression test
that asserts browse-sh skills with the same name but different hostnames
are never collapsed.
PR #29182 deleted the per-session JSON snapshot writer outright because
state.db is canonical and the snapshots had no in-tree consumer. Some
users have external tooling that reads `~/.hermes/sessions/session_{sid}.json`
directly, so reintroduce the writer behind a config flag that defaults
to off.
- Add `sessions.write_json_snapshots` (default False) to DEFAULT_CONFIG
- Restore `AIAgent._save_session_log` + `_clean_session_content` as
gated methods. When the flag is off the call is a fast no-op; when
on, the writer behaves as before (atomic write, truncation guard
preserved, REASONING_SCRATCHPAD → think tag normalization)
- Re-derive the target path from `agent.session_id` on each call so
`/branch` and `/compress` re-points happen automatically — no need
to restore the explicit re-point bookkeeping at call sites
- Wire the single call site in `_persist_session` (the cleanup-on-exit
hook). Did NOT restore the 7 intra-turn calls the original PR deleted
— those were redundant writes within the same turn that doubled disk
I/O without adding any persistence guarantee `_persist_session` does
not already provide
- Read the flag once at agent init via `load_config()`, cache as
`agent._session_json_enabled`
- Update `TestNoSessionJsonSnapshot` → `TestSessionJsonSnapshotOptIn`
to pin behavior: default off (no file), opt-in true (file written),
no-op method on default agents, logs_dir retained unconditionally
- Update CONTRIBUTING.md and the bundled `hermes-agent` skill to
document the flag and its default
