Follow-up to the salvaged #63690: when the interim assistant message is
too empty to append (no content and no reasoning of any kind), the last
message in history is still the prior user/tool turn — appending the
user-role nudge there would create a user→user or tool→user sequence
that strict providers reject. Only append the nudge when the last
message is an assistant turn. Also add IpastorSan to AUTHOR_MAP.
The remote model catalog (website/static/api/model-catalog.json) now labels
exactly one entry per provider block with "default": true — z-ai/glm-5.2 for
both OpenRouter and Nous Portal. That labeled entry is the model Hermes
silently lands on when the user never picked one, and it can be rotated by
editing the manifest alone: no release needed.
- model_catalog.py: get_default_model_from_cache() reads the label from the
in-process/disk cache only — never triggers a network fetch, so hot
resolution paths (agent build, gateway session setup) stay network-free.
- models.py: get_preferred_silent_default_model() resolves catalog label
first, PREFERRED_SILENT_DEFAULT_MODEL constant second (offline/fresh
install). _PROVIDER_SILENT_DEFAULT_OVERRIDES dict replaced by
_SILENT_DEFAULT_PROVIDERS routing through the shared resolver.
fetch_openrouter_models() preserves the "default" badge through live
/v1/models refreshes so the picker shows it.
- scripts/build_model_catalog.py: generator emits the default label so
regeneration can't drop it.
- website/docs/reference/model-catalog.md: schema documents the new field.
- Salvaged from PR #61141 (@HumphreySun98): bare-provider /model switches
(/model nous) route through the cost-safe default instead of curated
entry [0].
- tests: catalog-label precedence, constant fallback, stale-label fallback,
cache-only (no network) guarantee, and a shipped-manifest contract test
pinning the labeled entry to PREFERRED_SILENT_DEFAULT_MODEL.
E2E (temp HERMES_HOME): fresh-install constant fallback, shipped-manifest
label read, release-free rotation (relabeled cache -> new default across
models.py, tui_gateway, and gateway empty-model paths) all verified.
Include the Hermes client name and version with Gemini inference, model and tier checks, and TTS requests. Add focused coverage for the request headers and keep the Gemini-specific context scoped to Google Gemini endpoints.
Salvage of #63862. is_output_cap_error() returns False for vLLM/LM Studio
error messages that contain 'prompt contains ... input tokens' (treated as
input-overflow signal). But parse_available_output_tokens_from_error() CAN
extract a valid available_tokens from those same messages. The
compression-disabled guard only checked is_output_cap_error(), so vLLM/LM
Studio users with compression off still got a terminal failure instead of
the max-tokens retry.
Fix: also exempt when parse_available_output_tokens_from_error() returns a
value — that function determines whether the retry path can actually handle
the error, so it's the right predicate for the exemption.
Added test: verify vLLM-format error with compression_disabled=False still
triggers the max-tokens retry path.

Baseline bars were positioned at their absolute timeline offset, which
included the baseline run's own wait time — making duration comparisons
hard since the bars were visually offset. Now each baseline bar starts
at the same left position as its corresponding current job, so the two
bars directly overlap for at-a-glance duration comparison.
Also removed the now-unused bl_t0 / bl_max / bl_jobs_timed variables
that tracked the baseline timeline position.
Add wait time computation: for each job, wait_s = started_at - max(completed_at
of all jobs that finished before it started). This is a timestamp heuristic
(no workflow YAML dependency parse needed) that's accurate for pipeline-shaped
CI where the critical path is linear at each stage.
Shows up in:
- Job table: new Wait + Δ Wait columns
- Gantt chart: hatched bar segment before the run bar
- Step details: '(wait Xs)' annotation in the summary line
- Markdown summary: Total wait row with delta vs baseline
- Stats: total_wait / bl_total_wait in compute_stats
Also completes the skipped-jobs UI:
- Skipped stat card in stats cards
- Skipped row in markdown summary table
Backward compatible: old cached baselines without wait_s annotate on load.
Skipped jobs (conclusion == 'skipped') have null/zero-duration timestamps
that polluted every downstream computation: they counted as 'unchanged'
(0 vs 0) in faster/slower tallies, showed meaningless '0.0s (0%)' deltas
in the job table, rendered phantom gantt bars, and inflated wall/compute
totals.
Add is_skipped() helper and apply it consistently:
- compute_stats: exclude from wall/compute + faster/slower/unchanged;
add 'skipped' and 'bl_skipped' counts
- _gantt_bars: filter from current bars, baseline bars, and axis calc
- _job_table: show 'skipped' label instead of durations/deltas
- _step_details: skip entirely (no meaningful step data)
- _regressions: exclude from both current and baseline sides
Normalize Anthropic setup-token metadata for every PooledCredential construction path, persist corrected manual entries, heal legacy rows on load without copying global fallback credentials into profiles, and map the contributor email for release attribution.
Align the workspace status-bar dropdown with the rest of the status bar: drop
the per-item icons (they mixed lucide size-4 with a Codicon 1rem glyph and were
the only status-bar menu carrying item icons), leaving text-only items on the
shared DropdownMenuItem primitive with default typography. The status-bar
trigger keeps its FolderOpen glyph, consistent with sibling items.
Also map true@supersynergy.de → Supersynergy in AUTHOR_MAP.
scripts/desktop-sandbox.sh runs a Hermes desktop instance in an isolated
sandbox — separate HERMES_HOME, separate Electron userData, and a
distinct
app name (HERMES_DESKTOP_APP_NAME) so it doesn't compete with the main
desktop instance's single-instance lock.
Two modes:
- Ephemeral (default): temp dir, cleaned up on exit
- --persistent: stored under .hermes-sandbox/ in the worktree git root,
survives restarts for repeat testing
In the Nix devShell the script is available as 'sandbox'.
Also makes APP_NAME overridable via HERMES_DESKTOP_APP_NAME in main.ts —
app.setName() runs before requestSingleInstanceLock(), so the overridden
name changes the lock key. collectRelaunchEnv already preserves
HERMES_DESKTOP_* vars through self-update relaunches; test updated to
cover the new env var.
Follow-ups for salvaged PR #43819: the registry key was
str(Path(db_path).expanduser()) — a symlinked or relative path to the
same DB file got its own connection, silently reintroducing the exact
multi-writer contention the registry prevents. Key on Path.resolve()
(OSError-tolerant fallback). Adds a symlink regression test and the
AUTHOR_MAP entry for adambiggs.
