Authenticated remote OpenViking servers derive tenancy from the Bearer
key, but the client was always sending X-OpenViking-Account and
X-OpenViking-User — defaulted to the literal string "default" — which
overrode the key-derived tenant and broke auth.
- _headers(): skip X-OpenViking-Account/-User when blank or "default"
(treats the legacy default value as unset, so existing installs don't
need to touch their .env)
- _headers(): send Authorization: Bearer <key> alongside X-API-Key for
standard HTTP auth compatibility
- health(): include auth headers so /health works against servers that
require authentication
Tests cover bearer emission, legacy "default" suppression, empty
suppression, real tenant passthrough, and authenticated health checks.
Fixes the same user report as #20695 (from @ZaynJarvis); that PR could
not be merged because its branch was stale against main and would have
reverted recent OpenViking work (#15696, local resource uploads, summary
URI normalization, fs-stat pre-check).
Cloud metadata endpoints (169.254.169.254 etc.) are now always blocked
by browser_navigate regardless of hybrid routing, allow_private_urls,
or backend.
Bug: commit 42c076d3 (#16136) added hybrid routing that flips
auto_local_this_nav=True for private URLs and short-circuits
_is_safe_url(). IMDS endpoints are technically private (169.254/16
link-local), so the sidecar happily routed them to a local Chromium,
and the agent could read IAM credentials via browser_snapshot. On
EC2/GCP/Azure this is a full SSRF-to-credential-theft.
Fix: new is_always_blocked_url() in url_safety.py — a narrow floor
that checks _BLOCKED_HOSTNAMES, _ALWAYS_BLOCKED_IPS,
_ALWAYS_BLOCKED_NETWORKS only. Applied as an independent gate in
browser_navigate's pre-nav and post-redirect checks, BEFORE
auto_local_this_nav gets a chance to short-circuit. Ordinary private
URLs (localhost, 192.168.x, 10.x, .local, CGNAT) still route to the
local sidecar as the #16136 feature intends.
Secondary fix (reporter's finding): _url_is_private() now explicitly
checks 172.16.0.0/12. ipaddress.is_private only covers that range on
Python ≥3.11 (bpo-40791), so on 3.10 runtimes those URLs were routed
to cloud instead of the local sidecar. No security impact — just a
correctness fix for the hybrid-routing feature.
Closes#16234.
The MCP SDK discovers OAuth server metadata (token_endpoint, etc.) on
demand and keeps it in memory only. Without disk persistence, a restart
with valid cached refresh tokens forces the SDK to fall back to the
guessed '{server_url}/token' path — which returns 404 on most real
providers (Notion, Atlassian, GitHub remote MCP, etc.) and triggers a
full browser re-authorization even though the refresh token is fine.
Add a .meta.json file next to the existing tokens/client_info files:
HERMES_HOME/mcp-tokens/<server>.json -- tokens (existing)
HERMES_HOME/mcp-tokens/<server>.client.json -- client info (existing)
HERMES_HOME/mcp-tokens/<server>.meta.json -- oauth metadata (new)
Changes:
- HermesTokenStorage.save_oauth_metadata / load_oauth_metadata / _meta_path
— disk layer for the discovered OAuthMetadata.
- HermesTokenStorage.remove() now also clears .meta.json so
'hermes mcp remove <name>' and the manager's remove() path clean up fully.
- HermesMCPOAuthProvider._initialize cold-restores from disk before the
existing pre-flight discovery runs. If disk has metadata we skip the
discovery HTTP round-trips entirely.
- HermesMCPOAuthProvider._prefetch_oauth_metadata now persists ASM as
soon as it's discovered, so even the first pre-flight run seeds disk.
- HermesMCPOAuthProvider._persist_oauth_metadata_if_changed() is called
at the end of async_auth_flow so metadata discovered via the SDK's
lazy 401-branch (not pre-flight) is also saved for next time.
Tests cover the storage roundtrip (save/load/missing/corrupt/remove) and
the manager provider path (cold-load restore, skip-when-in-memory,
persist-on-discover, noop-when-unchanged, end-to-end async_auth_flow).

When multiple custom_providers share the same base_url but have different API keys,
get_custom_provider_pool_key() always returned the first match, causing wrong-key
unauthorized errors. Add provider_name parameter to prefer exact name matches
over base_url-only matching, with fallback for backward compatibility.
Fixes#19083
When a kanban worker subprocess exits rc=0 but its task is still in
status='running', the agent almost certainly answered the task
conversationally without calling kanban_complete or kanban_block. The
dispatcher used to classify this as a generic crash and respawn, which
loops forever on small local models (gemma4-e2b q4 etc.) that keep
returning clean but unproductive output.
Dispatcher changes:
- The waitpid reap loop at the top of dispatch_once now records each
reaped child's raw exit status in a bounded module registry
(_recent_worker_exits, TTL 600s, size cap 4096).
- _classify_worker_exit distinguishes clean_exit / nonzero_exit /
signaled / unknown using os.WIFEXITED / WIFSIGNALED.
- detect_crashed_workers consults the classification when a worker
is found dead. clean_exit → protocol_violation event + immediate
circuit-breaker trip (failure_limit=1). Everything else keeps the
existing crashed-event + counter behavior.
- DispatchResult.auto_blocked now includes protocol-violation trips.
Gateway fix (Bug A in #20894):
- gateway.run._notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown snapshots
self.adapters with list(...) before iterating. adapter.send() can
hit a fatal-error path that pops the adapter from the dict, which
was raising 'RuntimeError: dictionary changed size during iteration'
during shutdown.
Regression tests:
- test_detect_crashed_workers_protocol_violation_auto_blocks verifies
rc=0 + still-running → status=blocked on first occurrence with
protocol_violation + gave_up events and NO crashed event.
- test_detect_crashed_workers_nonzero_exit_uses_default_limit verifies
non-zero exits keep the existing 2-strike behavior.
Closes#20894.
custom_providers entries (section 4 of list_authenticated_providers) only
read the static models: dict from config.yaml, ignoring the live /v1/models
endpoint. This means gateways like Bifrost that expose hundreds of models
only show the handful explicitly listed in config.
Add live discovery via fetch_api_models() for custom_providers entries
that have api_key + base_url, matching the existing behavior for user
providers: entries (section 3). When the endpoint is reachable and
returns models, the live list replaces the static subset.
Fixes: /model picker showing only 9 models from a Bifrost gateway that
actually exposes 581.
Skills that produce large/lossless images (e.g. info-graph, where a
rendered JPG is 1-2 MB) currently lose quality in Telegram delivery
because `_IMAGE_EXTS` membership routes the file through
`send_multiple_images` → `sendMediaGroup`, which Telegram's server
re-encodes to JPEG @ 1280px max edge. The original bytes only survive
when the file goes through `send_document`, which the dispatch tables
in three places (`_process_message_background`, `_deliver_media_from_response`,
and the `send_message` tool's telegram path) only reach for files
whose extension is NOT in `_IMAGE_EXTS`.
This commit adds an `[[as_document]]` directive that mirrors the
existing `[[audio_as_voice]]` shape: a skill emits the directive once
in its response, and every image-extension MEDIA: file in that response
is delivered via `send_document` instead of `send_multiple_images` /
`sendPhoto`. The directive is detected at the dispatch sites (which see
the raw response) and the directive string is stripped from the
user-visible cleaned text in `extract_media` so it never leaks.
Granularity is intentionally all-or-nothing per response, matching
[[audio_as_voice]]'s scope. Skills that need fine control can split into
two responses.
Verified the targeted use case: info-graph emits
信息图已生成（...）
[[as_document]]
MEDIA:/tmp/info-graph-x/infographic.jpg
→ Telegram receives `infographic.jpg` via sendDocument, original 1MB
JPEG bytes preserved, no recompression. Forwarding and download
filenames stay clean (`infographic.jpg`).
Tests: +3 cases in TestExtractMedia covering directive strip, isolation
from voice flag, and coexistence with [[audio_as_voice]]. All
113 pre-existing media/extract/send tests pass.

The --command flag of `hermes mcp add` shared its argparse dest with the
top-level subparser (`dest="command"` in `hermes_cli/_parser.py`). When
the flag was omitted, argparse still wrote `args.command = None`,
clobbering the top-level value of `"mcp"`. The dispatcher then saw
`args.command is None` and fell through to interactive chat, so
`hermes mcp add ...` silently launched chat instead of registering the
server. `cmd_mcp_add` was never reached.
Use `dest="mcp_command"` on the flag and read it from `cmd_mcp_add`.
The user-facing CLI flag `--command` is unchanged; only the in-memory
namespace attribute moves. Also updates the `_make_args` helper in
`tests/hermes_cli/test_mcp_config.py` to populate the new dest, and
adds `tests/hermes_cli/test_mcp_add_command_dest.py` with a parser-
level regression test.
Closes#19785.

Follow-up on top of Zyproth's session-source cache: swap the unbounded
dict for an OrderedDict with a 512-entry LRU cap so long-running
gateways can't accumulate stale entries for dead sessions forever.
- self._session_sources is now an OrderedDict
- _cache_session_source() move_to_end + popitem(last=False) above cap
- _get_cached_session_source() move_to_end on hit (LRU read bump)
- restart_test_helpers.py wires OrderedDict + _session_sources_max
`_save_auth_store`, `_save_qwen_cli_tokens`, and `_write_shared_nous_state`
all created the temp file via `Path.open('w')` / `Path.write_text` and only
tightened permissions to 0o600 afterward. Between create and chmod the file
existed at the process umask (commonly 0o644 = world-readable on multi-user
hosts), briefly exposing OAuth access/refresh tokens for Nous, Codex,
Copilot, Claude, Qwen, Gemini, and every other native OAuth provider that
flows through auth.json.
Switch all three to `os.open(O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0o600)` + `os.fdopen`
+ `fsync` so the file is atomic at 0o600 on creation. Tighten each parent
directory (`~/.hermes/`, Qwen auth dir, Nous shared auth dir) to 0o700 so
siblings can't traverse to the creds. `_save_auth_store` also gains a
per-process random temp suffix to match `agent/google_oauth.py` (#19673)
and `tools/mcp_oauth.py` (#21148).
Adds `tests/hermes_cli/test_auth_toctou_file_modes.py` asserting final
file mode 0o600 and parent dir mode 0o700 across all three writers, plus
an explicit `os.open(flags, mode)` check on the main auth.json writer
that would fail if anyone reintroduces the `Path.open('w')` pattern.
POSIX-only (mode bits skipped on Windows).
Flip the default for HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS from off to on so the redactor
already wired into send_message_tool, logs, and tool output actually runs
on a fresh install.
- agent/redact.py: env-var default "" → "true"
- hermes_cli/config.py: DEFAULT_CONFIG security.redact_secrets True;
two config-template comments rewritten
- gateway/run.py + cli.py: startup log / banner warning when the user
has explicitly opted out, so the downgrade is visible in agent.log
and at CLI banner time
- docs/reference/environment-variables.md: description reconciled
- tests: flipped the default-pin, restructured the force=True
regression test to explicit-false instead of unset
Users who need raw credential values (redactor development) can still
opt out via security.redact_secrets: false in config.yaml or
HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS=false in .env.
Closes#17691.
Addresses #20785 (short-term output-pipeline recommendation).
Follow-up on top of @kyan12's PR #20888 — same feature, cleaner shape,
wider coverage.
Changes:
- Drop the synthetic '[System note: ...]' in the internal MessageEvent.
The existing _is_resume_pending branch in _handle_message_with_agent
(run.py ~L13738) already injects a reason-aware recovery system note
on the next turn. With kyan's text in place the model saw two stacked
system notes. Now the event text is empty and the existing injection
path owns the wording.
- Drop SessionStore.list_resume_pending() as a new public method. The
filter is 8 lines inline in _schedule_resume_pending_sessions() —
one caller, no other pluggability need.
- Add 'restart_interrupted' to the auto-resume reason set. That's the
reason SessionStore.suspend_recently_active() stamps on sessions
recovered from a crash/OOM/SIGKILL (no .clean_shutdown marker).
Previously those sessions had to wait for a real user message to
auto-resume; now they continue automatically at startup like
drain-timeout interruptions do.
- Reasons live in a _AUTO_RESUME_REASONS frozenset at class scope so
future reasons (e.g. 'manual_resume_request') can be opted in with
one line.
Test coverage added:
- drain-timeout + crash-recovery both scheduled
- stale entries skipped (outside freshness window)
- suspended entries skipped (suspended > resume_pending)
- originless entries skipped (no routing target)
- disallowed reasons skipped (graceful forward-compat)
E2E verified end-to-end with a real on-disk SessionStore: 2 eligible
sessions scheduled, 2 ineligible skipped, empty-text internal events
delivered to the adapter.

The kanban_heartbeat tool called heartbeat_worker but never
heartbeat_claim, so a worker that loops the tool while a single tool
call blocks the agent for >DEFAULT_CLAIM_TTL_SECONDS still got
reclaimed by release_stale_claims. The function name and
heartbeat_claim's own docstring imply otherwise:
"Workers that know they'll exceed 15 minutes should call this
every few minutes to keep ownership."
But there was no caller in the worker tool path. Workers couldn't
invoke heartbeat_claim themselves either — it isn't exposed as a tool.
Fix: _handle_heartbeat now calls heartbeat_claim first, reading
HERMES_KANBAN_CLAIM_LOCK from the worker env (the dispatcher pins
this in _default_spawn). Falls back to _claimer_id() for locally-
driven workers that didn't go through dispatcher spawn.
Test: tests/tools/test_kanban_tools.py::test_heartbeat_extends_claim_expires
rewinds claim_expires into the past, calls the tool, and asserts the
new value is at least now + DEFAULT_CLAIM_TTL_SECONDS // 2. Verified to
fail against the unfixed code (claim_expires stays at the rewound
value).
Closes the root cause underlying the symptom in #21141 (15-min
respawns of long-running workers). #21141 separately addresses
post-reclaim cleanup; this fixes the upstream "shouldn't have been
reclaimed in the first place" half.
When display.cleanup_progress (or display.platforms.<plat>.cleanup_progress)
is true, the gateway deletes tool-progress bubbles, long-running '⏳ Still
working...' notices, and status-callback messages after the final response
is delivered successfully. Currently effective on adapters that implement
delete_message (Telegram); silently no-ops elsewhere. Off by default.
Failed runs skip cleanup so bubbles stay as breadcrumbs.
Minimal plumbing: base.py's existing post_delivery_callback slot now chains
new registrations onto any existing callback (with per-callback exception
isolation) rather than clobbering. Stale-generation registrations are
rejected so they can't step on a fresher run's callbacks. This lets the
cleanup callback coexist with the background-review release hook already
registered on the same slot.

The rescan-on-platform-change fix landed in #18739 ships one regression
test that exercises the HERMES_PLATFORM env-var path. Three other code
paths in get_skill_commands / _resolve_skill_commands_platform have no
direct coverage; this commit adds a regression test for each.
- Gateway session context (HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM via ContextVar): the
resolver consults get_session_env after HERMES_PLATFORM, and the
gateway sets that variable through set_session_vars (a ContextVar),
not os.environ. The test uses set_session_vars / clear_session_vars
to drive the actual gateway signal, and the disabled-skill stub reads
the same value via get_session_env. A regression that swapped
get_session_env for plain os.getenv would still pass an env-var-based
test but break concurrent gateway sessions, which is the bug the
ContextVar plumbing exists to prevent.
- Returning to no-platform-scope (CLI / cron / RL rollouts after a
gateway session): the cached telegram view must be dropped and the
unfiltered scan repopulated when HERMES_PLATFORM is unset again.
- Same-platform cache hit: consecutive calls under the same platform
scope must NOT rescan. The rescan trigger is change in scope, not
"always re-resolve" — a gateway serving many consecutive telegram
requests should pay the scan cost once, not per request.
The third test wraps scan_skill_commands with a spy after the cache is
primed, so the assertion is on call_count == 0 across three subsequent
get_skill_commands() calls.
All 39 tests in tests/agent/test_skill_commands.py pass under
scripts/run_tests.sh.
In native image mode (vision-capable models like gpt-4o, claude-sonnet-4),
build_native_content_parts() previously emitted only the user's caption
plus image_url parts. The local file path of each attached image never
appeared in the conversation text, so the model could see the pixels but
had no string handle for tools that take image_url: str (custom MCP
tools, vision_analyze on a re-look, attach-to-tracker workflows).
The text-mode path already injects an equivalent hint via
Runner._enrich_message_with_vision ("...vision_analyze using image_url:
<path>..."). This brings native mode to parity by appending one
"[Image attached at: <path>]" line per successfully attached image to
the user-text part of the multimodal turn. Skipped (unreadable) paths
are NOT advertised, so the model is never told a non-existent file is
attached.

Issue #17648 added a post-update SIGTERM-survivor sweep to `cmd_update`:
~3s after issuing graceful/SIGTERM restarts, the code re-queries
`find_gateway_pids` and SIGKILLs anything still alive. That's the
right fix for stuck-drain gateways in production, but it broke three
unit tests that assumed `find_gateway_pids` would keep returning the
same PIDs forever:
FAILED ::TestCmdUpdateLaunchdRestart::test_update_restarts_profile_manual_gateways
AssertionError: Expected 'kill' to not have been called. Called 1 times.
Calls: [call(12345, <Signals.SIGKILL: 9>)].
FAILED ::TestCmdUpdateLaunchdRestart::test_update_profile_manual_gateway_falls_back_to_sigterm
AssertionError: Expected 'kill' to have been called once. Called 2 times.
Calls: [call(12345, SIGTERM), call(12345, SIGKILL)].
FAILED ::TestServicePidExclusion::test_update_kills_manual_pid_but_not_service_pid
assert 2 == 1
manual_kills = [call(42999, SIGTERM), call(42999, SIGKILL)]
In each test `os.kill` is mocked, so the simulated PID never actually
exits \u2014 the sweep finds it again and escalates. The production code
is correct; the tests just need to model OS behaviour properly.
Two-test fix (profile-manual restart cases): use
`side_effect=[[12345], []]` so the first `find_gateway_pids` call
returns the live PID and the second (the sweep) returns nothing, as if
the OS had reaped the process.
Service-PID-exclusion fix: track which PIDs got killed in a closure
set, and exclude them on subsequent `fake_find` calls. `os.kill`
gets a `side_effect` that records the kill instead of swallowing it
silently. Now the sweep doesn't re-find the manual PID, no SIGKILL
escalation, `manual_kills == 1`.

_write_json (the persistence helper used by HermesTokenStorage for both
tokens and client_info) created the temp file via Path.write_text and
only chmod'd it to 0o600 afterward. Between create and chmod the file
existed on disk at the process umask (commonly 0o644 = world-readable),
briefly exposing MCP OAuth access/refresh tokens to other local users.
Use os.open with O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL and an explicit S_IRUSR|S_IWUSR
mode so the file is created atomically at 0o600, plus tighten the parent
dir to 0o700 so siblings can't traverse to the creds file. The temp name
also gains a per-process random suffix to avoid collisions between
concurrent writers and stale leftovers from a crashed prior write.
Mirrors the fix shipped for agent/google_oauth.py in #19673.
Adds a regression test asserting the resulting file mode is 0o600 and
the parent directory is 0o700 (skipped on Windows where POSIX mode bits
aren't enforced).
Two CI tests for the new `--yes` update flag (#18261) flaked under
`pytest-xdist` on Linux/Python 3.11 even though they passed every
local run on macOS/Python 3.14.4:
FAILED tests/hermes_cli/test_update_yes_flag.py

FAILED tests/hermes_cli/test_update_yes_flag.py
::TestUpdateYesStashRestore::test_yes_restores_stash_without_prompting
`AssertionError: assert <MagicMock '_restore_stashed_changes'>.called is False`
Captured stdout for the first failure shows `cmd_update` taking the
"Non-interactive session \u2014 skipping config migration prompt." branch
\u2014 i.e. the `sys.stdin.isatty() and sys.stdout.isatty()` check at
`hermes_cli/main.py:7118` evaluated to `False` despite the test doing:
with patch("hermes_cli.main.sys") as mock_sys:
mock_sys.stdin.isatty.return_value = True
mock_sys.stdout.isatty.return_value = True
The whole-module mock is fragile under xdist worker reuse: a sibling
test that imports `hermes_cli.main` first can leave another `sys`
reference resolved inside the function (re-import in a helper, etc.),
and the wholesale module replacement never gets consulted.
Switch to `patch.object(_sys.stdin, "isatty", return_value=True)` (and
the same for `stdout`). That patches the *attribute on the real stream
object* \u2014 every call site, no matter how it reached `sys.stdin`,
hits the patched method. Same fix applied to the stash-restore test
(it took the "non-TTY \u2192 skip restore prompt" branch for the same reason).

The Dockerfile dropped the manual `@hermes/ink` materialisation gymnastics
in favour of letting npm workspaces resolve the bundled package
naturally. Two contract tests still asserted the older flow:
`test_dockerfile_installs_tui_dependencies` required:
'ui-tui/packages/hermes-ink/package-lock.json' in dockerfile_text
…but the lockfile is no longer COPIED individually \u2014 the entire
`ui-tui/packages/hermes-ink/` tree is COPIED instead (the workspace
reference from `ui-tui/package.json` is `file:` so npm needs the
real source, not just a manifest stub).
`test_dockerfile_materializes_local_tui_ink_package` required a 7-clause
conjunction matching specific `rm -rf` / `npm install --omit=dev`
`--prefix node_modules/@hermes/ink` / `rm -rf .../react` invocations
that were stripped out when the workspace resolution was simplified.
Update the assertions to pin the *contract* the image actually has to
carry rather than the *exact shell incantations* the old flow used:
* TUI deps install: ui-tui/package.json + ui-tui/package-lock.json +
ui-tui/packages/hermes-ink/ tree are all COPIED, and an npm
install/ci step runs in ui-tui.
* Bundled hermes-ink: the workspace package source is COPIED (so
`await import('@hermes/ink')` resolves at runtime).
This keeps the spirit of #15012 / #16690 (zombie reaping + bundled
workspace materialisation must continue to work) without locking the
Dockerfile into one specific implementation flavour.

Adds `hermes profile create <name> --no-skills` to create a profile with
zero bundled skills. Writes a `.no-bundled-skills` marker file in the
profile root so `hermes update`'s all-profile skill sync loop also skips
the profile — without the marker, every update would re-seed skills and
the user would have to delete them again.
Use case (from @hiut1u): orchestrator profiles and narrow-task profiles
don't need 100+ bundled skills polluting their system prompt.
- create_profile() gains a `no_skills` param, mutually exclusive with
`--clone` / `--clone-all` (cloning explicitly copies skills).
- seed_profile_skills() no-ops on opted-out profiles and returns
`{skipped_opt_out: True}` so callers can report cleanly.
- Web API (POST /api/profiles) accepts `no_skills: bool`.
- Delete `.no-bundled-skills` to opt back in — next `hermes update`
re-seeds normally.
6 new tests in TestNoSkillsOptOut cover marker write, mutual exclusion
with clone, seed_profile_skills opt-out, fresh profile unaffected, and
delete-marker-re-enables-seeding.
Two follow-ups on top of helix4u's slash-command sync hardening:
- Only suppress exceptions that are actually Discord 429 rate limits
(discord.RateLimited, HTTPException with status 429, or a clearly
rate-limit-named duck type). Arbitrary failures that happen to expose
a retry_after attribute now re-raise to the outer handler instead of
silently swallowing a cooldown.
- Move the sync-state JSON under $HERMES_HOME/gateway/ so the home root
stops collecting ad-hoc runtime files.
Added a test verifying unrelated exceptions don't get misclassified as
rate limits.
The setup wizard dropped non-root users at a bare shell prompt when
trying to start a system-scope gateway service. Previously
_require_root_for_system_service called sys.exit(1), which the
wizard's `except Exception` guards cannot catch (SystemExit is a
BaseException). Users with a pre-existing /etc/systemd/system unit
(e.g. from an earlier `sudo hermes setup` run) hit this whenever
they re-ran `hermes setup` as a regular user.
- Convert _require_root_for_system_service to raise a typed
SystemScopeRequiresRootError (RuntimeError subclass) instead of
sys.exit(1). The direct CLI path (`hermes gateway install|start|stop|
restart|uninstall` without sudo) still exits 1 cleanly via a new
catch at the top of gateway_command, matching the existing
UserSystemdUnavailableError pattern.
- Add _system_scope_wizard_would_need_root() pre-check and
_print_system_scope_remediation() helper. Both setup wizards
(hermes_cli/setup.py and hermes_cli/gateway.py::gateway_setup) now
detect the dead-end before prompting and print actionable guidance:
either `sudo systemctl start <service>` this time, or uninstall the
system unit and install a per-user one.
- Defense-in-depth: all 5 wizard prompt sites also catch
SystemScopeRequiresRootError and fall back to the remediation
helper if the pre-check is bypassed (race, etc.).
Tests: 12 new tests in TestSystemScopeRequiresRootError,
TestSystemScopeWizardPreCheck, TestSystemScopeRemediationOutput, and
TestGatewayCommandCatchesSystemScopeError covering the exception
contract, pre-check matrix (root vs non-root, system-only vs
user-present vs none vs explicit system=True), remediation output
for each action, and the direct-CLI exit-1 path.
