A job record in jobs.json can have a non-dict 'schedule' value (null, string,
etc.) from direct edit or old writers.
In _get_due_jobs_locked:
schedule = job.get('schedule', {})
kind = schedule.get('kind')
This (and direct schedule['kind'] in compute_next_run etc.) raises and
aborts the entire due-jobs scan before save_jobs() or advancing next_run_at
for healthy jobs. Exactly the same failure mode as the id-less job P1.
Fix: normalize non-dict schedules to {} early (before any use), matching the
defense added for id-less records. Also added defensive guards in compute
functions.
Added regression test that a bad schedule does not crash and healthy sibling
is still returned.
Refs similar pattern in #61382.
A cron record authored by a direct jobs.json edit that bypassed
add_job() can lack an "id" key (older writers used "job_id"). Every
site in _get_due_jobs_locked indexes job["id"] eagerly — both the
logging helpers (job.get("name", job["id"]) evaluates the default
argument unconditionally) and the 'for rj in raw_jobs: if rj["id"] ==
job["id"]' persistence loops. A single malformed record therefore
raised KeyError mid-tick, aborting the entire scan before save_jobs()
ran. Result: healthy jobs' fast-forwarded next_run_at was computed in
memory then discarded on the exception unwind, freezing the whole
profile's scheduler in a per-minute loop (observed dormant for weeks).
Fix: normalize id-less records at the top of _get_due_jobs_locked before
anything keys off job["id"] — recover the id from a drifted "job_id"
key when present, else synthesize one via uuid4, and persist. This
repairs the whole bug class at the source rather than guarding each of
the ~12 downstream index sites.
Adds a regression test that fails with KeyError on the current code and
passes with the fix, asserting a healthy sibling job is still returned
when an id-less record shares the store.
The HTML session export interpolated the tool-call name into the page
without escaping, while every sibling field went through _escape_html. A
tool-call name is attacker-influenced, so a prompt-injected model can emit
a name containing HTML that executes when the export is opened in a browser.
Escape the tool-call name like the other fields.
switch_model() unconditionally set agent.provider but only set
agent.base_url when the resolved value was truthy. When a real
provider change resolved an empty base_url (e.g. minimax after
copilot), the agent ended up with provider="minimax" but
base_url still pointing at api.githubcopilot.com. That incoherent
pair then got snapshotted into agent._primary_runtime, so it kept
re-applying on every subsequent turn via restore_primary_runtime()
until the process restarted.
try_activate_fallback() and _swap_credential() were audited and
confirmed unaffected: both always derive base_url from an actually
constructed client, never from a possibly-empty resolver hint.
Fix: when base_url is empty AND the provider is genuinely changing,
raise ValueError instead of silently keeping the old provider's URL.
This routes through switch_model()'s existing snapshot/rollback
path, and callers (tui_gateway/server.py's _apply_model_switch)
already catch and surface a clean "switch failed, staying on X"
message. Re-selecting the SAME provider with an empty base_url
(credential-only refresh) still keeps the current URL, unchanged.
Fixes#47828

Port from openai/codex#31188: a parse failure in a policy-bearing config
file must not silently replace the effective policy with an empty/default
one. Codex's load_exec_policy_with_warning replaced the whole exec policy
with Policy::empty() when a .rules file failed to parse, silently dropping
managed prompt/forbidden rules; the fix preserves the managed policy while
still warning.
Hermes had the same bug shape in load_config(): a YAML parse error made
_load_config_impl() fall through to DEFAULT_CONFIG, dropping every user
override — including approvals.deny rules, which are documented to block
commands even under --yolo. In a long-running gateway, a user mid-editing
config.yaml into broken YAML silently disarmed their own deny rules on the
next load.
Now, when the process has a last successfully loaded config for that path
(_LAST_EXPANDED_CONFIG_BY_PATH), a parse failure keeps serving it (cached
under the corrupt file's signature so the broken file isn't re-parsed) and
the warning says edits are being ignored until the YAML is fixed. Fresh
processes with no last-known-good keep the existing DEFAULT_CONFIG
fallback and warning.
E2E-verified: deny rule 'curl*evil.com*' still blocks after mid-process
corruption; fixed file reloads normally; fresh-process fallback unchanged.
The earlier fix gated _resolve_use_tui, but the EARLY launcher
(_wants_tui_early) decides TUI from display.interface before cmd_chat
runs — so a `display.interface: tui` default still booted the Ink UI for
headless spawns (kanban workers), whose no-TTY bail-out exits 0 →
"protocol violation". Gate the early resolver on a real TTY: headless
stdio never boots the TUI regardless of config; explicit --tui still does.
Dragging a task done→ready did nothing: the respawn guard saw a run that
completed within the success window and deferred forever, unable to tell a
deliberate operator re-run from a status flap. Now a re-queue event
(status change, promote, unblock, reclaim) AFTER the completion bypasses
the recent_success guard, so an explicit done→ready runs again.
A retried task (→ running) kept showing "crashed Nx": the in-flight run
has no outcome yet, so the trailing crash scan skipped it and kept
counting the prior streak, and the consecutive_failures counter lingers.
Exempt `running` from both repeated_failures and repeated_crashes so a
fresh attempt clears the banner until it itself resolves (re-fires if the
new run also fails).
An inherited HERMES_TUI=1 or a `display.interface: tui` config default sent
kanban workers into the Ink TUI, whose no-TTY bail-out exits 0 without doing
the task — every attempt ended in "protocol violation". Two layers:
- _default_spawn pins `--cli` (highest-precedence interface flag) and strips
HERMES_TUI from the child env (covers older builds on PATH).
- _resolve_use_tui gates ambient TUI prefs (env/config) behind a real TTY;
an explicit --tui still wins so the informative bail-out stays reachable.
A manual done (dashboard/desktop drag) runs complete_task but ends no
run, so a trailing crashed/crashed run history never gains the
'completed' outcome that breaks the repeated_crashes streak — the card
kept flagging "needs attention" forever after being finished.
repeated_failures had the same hole via a stale counter. Terminal
statuses are now exempt from both: done means done; the history stays
on the event log for audit. Regression test included.
Adding the 6 gpt-5.6 slugs to DEFAULT_CODEX_MODELS grew the curated codex
catalog to 11, above the test's max_models=10 cap. That truncated the
picker list to 10 while total_models reported 11, breaking the
total_models == len(models) assertion. The cap was an implicit
change-detector on catalog size; raise it to 100 so the list is never
truncated and the count-consistency invariant stays meaningful as new
gpt-5.x slugs land.
Close the remaining end-to-end gaps so the full gpt-5.6 family (sol/
terra/luna + their -pro high-effort modes, 6 slugs) works on every
surface a user can reach them through:
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: the Codex OAuth backend hard-caps context
at 272K for gpt-5.6 exactly as it does for 5.4/5.5, but the default
50% compaction trigger would summarize at ~136K and waste half the
usable window. Extend the existing _is_codex_gpt54_or_gpt55 chokepoint
(single enforced predicate feeding _compression_threshold_for_model)
to match gpt-5.6* on the openai-codex route so those sessions get the
same 0.85 auto-raise. Direct-API/OpenRouter routes (full 1.05M window)
are unaffected; the historical codex_gpt55_autoraise opt-out still
applies. The one-time notice banner is model-dynamic and already
renders the correct slug/cap.
- hermes_cli/config.py, agent/agent_init.py: refresh the autoraise
comments/notice to mention the 5.6 family.
- hermes_cli/codex_models.py: add the -pro variants to DEFAULT_CODEX_MODELS
+ forward-compat so ChatGPT-OAuth (openai-codex) Pro users see the full
family in /model, not just the base tiers.
Supersedes the earlier commit's note that 5.6 was intentionally kept out
of the codex catalog: the slugs are confirmed routable (OpenRouter live
+ codex backend), so they belong there like every other codex-capable
gpt-5.x slug.
E2E verified across all 6 slugs: direct-API ctx 1.05M, codex ctx 272K,
pricing reachable from openai + openai-api routes, codex compaction
override 0.85 (and None on direct-API + when opted out), present in
openai-api picker + codex catalog, /model gpt resolves to sol on both
native routes. Guard tests added for the compaction route matrix.
PR #61587 adds sol-pro/terra-pro/luna-pro to the aggregator lists.
Complete those on the native surfaces the same way this PR completes
the base tiers:
- hermes_cli/models.py: -pro variants in _PROVIDER_MODELS[openai-api].
- agent/usage_pricing.py: alias ("openai", "gpt-5.6-*-pro") onto the
base-tier PricingEntry rows — the -pro high-effort modes bill at the
SAME per-token rates (verified against OpenRouter live pricing
2026-07-09: identical prompt/completion prices for base and -pro);
they cost more per task by consuming more tokens, not a higher rate.
- Context lengths need no new entries: "gpt-5.6-sol" et al. are
substrings of their -pro variants and both lookup tables match
longest-key-first (verified: sol-pro -> 1.05M direct / 272K codex).
- model_switch sort: -pro variants parse as suffix "sol-pro" (rank 1),
so /model gpt still defaults to base sol — pinned by test.
- Not added to DEFAULT_CODEX_MODELS: only confirmed routable via API/
OpenRouter so far; codex live discovery will surface them if ChatGPT
exposes them, same policy as other unconfirmed codex slugs.
Tests: invariant tests extended (pro aliases share base entries, base
sol outranks sol-pro); 191 targeted tests pass.
Phase-2 review findings addressed:
- resolve_billing_route: normalize the "openai-api" picker slug to the
"openai" billing provider — without this the ("openai", <model>)
_OFFICIAL_DOCS_PRICING keys (incl. every pre-existing gpt-4o/gpt-4.1
entry, not just 5.6) were unreachable when the provider is openai-api.
- pricing_version: drop the "preview" tag (GA 2026-07-09 at same rates).
- model_metadata comment: dict order is cosmetic — lookups length-sort
keys at match time; the old comment implied a positional invariant.
- model_switch comment: note "sol" is a series codename, not a generic
quality word.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_gpt56_registration.py: behavior contracts (no
list snapshots) — sol > terra/luna > 5.5 sort invariant, pricing
reachability from both openai and openai-api routes, cache-write
1.25x / cache-read 0.10x input relation.
hermes send "MEDIA:/x.png This Caption" now arrives as one native captioned
bubble instead of a separate text message followed by an uncaptioned bubble.
Root cause: the standalone senders (hermes send / cron / send_message tool)
stripped the MEDIA: tag, sent the remaining text as its own message, and
called the media send with no caption -- even though hermes send's help
advertises the captioned form and the bridges/adapters already support a
caption. Signal already captioned correctly.
- tools/send_message_tool.py: new _media_caption_split() chokepoint decides
caption-vs-separate-body (single captionable non-voice file within the
platform's message-length cap). Wired into the Telegram, WhatsApp and
Discord dispatch paths.
- Telegram/WhatsApp/Discord: when the single captioned file is missing, the
caption text is delivered as a plain message so it is never silently lost.
- Telegram caption send gets a MarkdownV2->plain parse fallback.
- Tests: _media_caption_split unit tests + per-platform caption tests
(ride, multi-file fallback, voice exclusion, over-limit fallback,
missing-file text fallback); updated the 3 tests that asserted the old
text-then-media split.
Closes the gap reported against #58911 (the MEDIA_CAPTION directive PR);
credit to @ferreiraesilva for surfacing the caption behavior.
Review finding: callers mutate the returned dicts in place —
hermes_cli/web_server.py annotates s['enabled']/s['usage'] on the skills
list — so handing out the cached objects poisons the cache for every
subsequent caller (and is a cross-thread shared-mutable hazard in the
gateway). Return [dict(s) for s in cached] on both hit and miss paths;
warm-path cost is negligible (241x speedup retained on a 300-skill
fixture). Regression test mutates a returned list/dict and asserts the
next cached call is clean.
Review findings on the cherry-picked cache (follow-up to #58985):
- The cache key was the max mtime of only the TOP-LEVEL scan dirs.
Adding/removing a skill inside a category subdir bumps the category
dir's mtime, NOT the root's, so the cache served a stale list
indefinitely. Replace with a per-dir signature covering roots +
immediate children (one scandir per dir; mirrors
hermes_cli/profiles.py::_count_skills from d5eee133e).
- The disabled-set is config-driven and changes with no filesystem
mtime bump; fold it into the signature so /skills disable takes
effect without a restart.
- Platform is part of the signature (gateway processes serve multiple
platform scopes; scan results are platform-filtered).
- Add a 30s TTL to bound staleness from in-place SKILL.md edits (file
mtime is invisible to any directory signature).
- The original also keyed dirs off the module-level SKILLS_DIR constant;
the scan itself uses _skills_dir() (live profile HERMES_HOME) — use
the same resolution for the signature.
Mutation-verified: nested-add, disabled-set, and TTL tests fail against
the pre-fix cache and pass with it.
The salvaged PR added a standalone test_reasoning_timeouts.py that duplicated
the structure of the existing parametrized test_reasoning_stale_timeout_floor.py.
Fold the v4-flash/v4-pro/-free positive cases and deepseek-chat negative cases
into the canonical parametrized tables and remove the redundant file.
DeepSeek V4 models (deepseek-v4-flash, deepseek-v4-pro) emit
reasoning_content in a separate delta field before final content,
requiring the same 600s stale timeout floor as R1. Without this,
streams hang for 30–50s with APITimeoutError on providers like
opencode-go while direct calls succeed in ~3s.
Fixes#60338.
Phase-2 review finding: the validation branch expanduser()s the path but
web_server.py reads os.environ['HERMES_WEB_DIST'] raw at import — a
'~/dist' value would validate here and still 404 there. Write the
expanded path back before the web_server import. Adds a regression test
asserting the env var holds the expanded path after cmd_dashboard.
Review finding: PR #40632's branch had silently dropped gemma-3-27b
from the keep-extra_content test loop (part of its Gemma narrowing,
which this salvage reverts). Restore main's original coverage so a
future narrowing back to Gemini-only fails loudly.
Trim the salvaged commit to its two still-valid conversions:
- ChatCompletionsTransport.convert_messages (copy-on-write sanitize)
- QwenProfile.prepare_messages (copy-on-write normalize + cache_control)
Dropped from the original PR:
- agent/prompt_caching.py selective-copy: superseded by #57229 which
already rewrites apply_anthropic_cache_control on current main.
- Gemma extra_content narrowing (_model_consumes_thought_signature
'gemini or gemma' -> 'gemini' only) + its two tests: unrelated
behavior change reverting deliberate e8c3ac2f5; belongs in its own
PR with its own justification if pursued.
Conflict resolution: preserved main's newer timestamp-stripping
(#47868) inside the copy-on-write path.
Mock _preflight_user_systemd and _select_systemd_scope in
test_systemd_start_refreshes_outdated_unit and
test_systemd_restart_refreshes_outdated_unit. These tests target
unit-file refresh logic, not D-Bus reachability, so the preflight
check was causing spurious UserSystemdUnavailableError on macOS,
WSL, and Docker where systemd is unavailable.
(cherry picked from commit 34113300a1)
A custom HERMES_WEB_DIST without --skip-build skipped BOTH the web UI
build and any validation: cmd_dashboard fell through the build gate and
started the server against a dist that may not exist, serving 404s with
no obvious cause. This is the same failure mode issue #23817 fixed for
the --skip-build branch — the env-var branch was left unvalidated.
Add the missing else-branch: fail fast with actionable guidance when
HERMES_WEB_DIST has no index.html, proceed (still without building) when
it does.
Credit: @Caelier (#17845) originally proposed dist validation for the
dashboard startup path; the --skip-build half of that PR's scope has
since landed via the #23817 fix, this covers the remaining env-var path
on the rewritten cmd_dashboard surface.
Review finding: the substring check ('kimi' or 'moonshot' in model)
under-matches bare release slugs like k2-thinking that the repo's
canonical _model_name_is_kimi_family matcher (anthropic_adapter.py)
already covers. Reuse it instead of a second ad-hoc matcher; add a
regression test for the bare-slug case.
Adapted from PR #26014's test file to the canonical seam
(tests/run_agent/test_anthropic_prompt_cache_policy.py _make_agent
helper) instead of a new top-level file with sys.path manipulation.
Covers: kimi-k2.6 + moonshot-v1 on OpenRouter (envelope layout),
kimi via Nous Portal, and the non-OpenRouter negative case.
Structured review (2a/2b/2c) findings, all fixed:
- MAJOR: detect_local_server_type memo was process-lifetime with no
invalidation, permanently pinning a URL's server type. Now a bounded
1h TTL ((type, monotonic) tuples) so a backend swap on the same port
is re-detected. Test covers ollama->lm-studio swap after expiry.
- MAJOR: legacy disk-row compat was one-way. get_cached_context_length
and _invalidate_cached_context_length now consult the same key-shape
set {canonical, literal, canonical+slash} in both directions, so an
old slashed row is found (and cleared) when the runtime passes the
normalized URL. Tests pin both migration directions.
- MINOR: _localhost_to_ipv4 did whole-string replacement, which could
corrupt a proxy URL embedding http://localhost in its query. Now a
scheme-anchored host-only regex; localhost.example.com and embedded
substrings pass through. Tests added.
- MINOR: _invalidate_cached_context_length now also drops the
in-memory TTL probe rows for the pair, so a resolution inside the
TTL window can't re-persist the value just declared stale.
- Test gaps closed: detect-type cache hit + TTL-expiry re-detection,
ollama-show TTL expiry re-probe, reverse legacy-row lookups.
- Attribution gate: added zhchl@hermes-agent.local -> 8294 (PR #50572
author) to AUTHOR_MAP; the strict CI grep needs bare non-plus emails
literal in release.py.
Gates: ruff clean; targeted suites 202 passed / 0 failed; full
tests/agent 5426 passed with 17 failures identical on clean
upstream/main (pre-existing env-dependent anthropic/bedrock/credpool
tests); mypy delta vs base: 0 new errors; live smoke 6/6 PASS.
#37595 fixed the Windows dual-stack IPv6 timeout only inside
detect_local_server_type. The same 2s-per-probe penalty existed at every
other helper that builds a probe URL from base_url. Extract the rewrite
into _localhost_to_ipv4() and apply it at:
- query_ollama_num_ctx
- query_ollama_supports_vision
- _query_ollama_api_show (server_url derivation)
- _query_local_context_length (server root + LM Studio native URL)
Tests cover the helper's URL forms, non-localhost passthrough, and that
the ollama probes actually POST to 127.0.0.1.
Follow-up hunks completing the probe-cache cluster:
1. _query_ollama_api_show now goes through the existing
_LOCAL_CTX_PROBE_CACHE (30s TTL, positive-only, namespaced key) —
it was the one remaining per-resolution POST not covered by the
#56431-era wrapper. Failures are never memoized so a server that
comes up mid-startup is re-probed. Idea credit: #42081 (@Morad37),
reworked to comply with the positive-only rule.
2. Persistent context-cache keys are normalized through
_context_cache_key (trailing-slash strip) so http://host/v1 and
http://host/v1/ share one entry; reads and invalidation honor
legacy un-normalized rows. Idea credit: #37905 (@stevenau21).
Tests: TTL hit collapses to one POST, failure-not-memoized
(mutation-verified: unconditional caching makes it fail), namespace
no-collision vs the sibling probe, slash-variant dedup, legacy-row
read, dual-shape invalidation.
Remaining hunk of the PR-branch fixup commit: the LM Studio first-probe
assertion now expects the IPv4-resolved URL (the code half — applying
the rewrite to `normalized` before deriving lmstudio_url — was folded
into the previous cherry-pick's conflict resolution).
(cherry picked from commit 7d324b0e47)
On Windows, `localhost` resolves to both ::1 (IPv6) and 127.0.0.1 (IPv4).
httpx tries IPv6 first, hanging 2 sec per probe when the server binds IPv4
only. detect_local_server_type() is called 3+ times during init, each with
a new httpx.Client, compounding to ~14s of dead time.
Replace localhost with 127.0.0.1 inside the function before connecting.
The function is only called for local endpoints (callers guard with
is_local_endpoint()), so IPv6 loopback adds no diagnostic value.
Measured: 19.9s → 4.0s on Windows with a local proxy on 127.0.0.1:8317.
(cherry picked from commit a075d3194b)
Follow-up to HexLab98's fix. The sync-before-regenerate invariant was
enforced by convention across 6 callsites (~3 idempotent unit-file reads
per command). Consolidate it into the one function every compare/regenerate
path funnels through — systemd_unit_is_current — and drop the now-redundant
callsite pre-syncs in refresh_systemd_unit_if_needed / systemd_start /
systemd_restart / systemd_status.
Kept the systemd_install pre-sync: the --force path bypasses the
is_current gate and calls generate_systemd_unit() directly, so it needs
its own sync to avoid baking /root/.hermes under sudo.
Reworked the two callsite-ordering tests into a chokepoint-invariant guard
(test_is_current_syncs_before_reading_unit) + a delegation test proving
start/restart no longer pre-sync. Both fail if the chokepoint sync is
removed; the pre-existing behavior test still passes.
Follow-up to the salvaged str(tools) fix. The id()-keyed
_TOOLS_TOKENS_CACHE had no eviction, so a long-lived gateway/desktop
backend could accumulate an unbounded number of stale entries as it
builds transient tool lists. Cap it at 256 with oldest-first eviction
(insertion-ordered dict) and add a regression test asserting the cache
never exceeds the cap.
PR #61281 removed the client-side X-Hermes-Session-Token requirement from the
dashboard OAuth mutation calls so cookie-authenticated hosted/mobile sessions
can start provider logins. That change is safe only because the server still
gates those endpoints (gated_auth_middleware cookie check + _require_token).
The PR's api.test.ts suite mocks fetch and only asserts client behavior, so a
re-break of the gated-mode cookie gate would pass CI unnoticed.
Add gated-mode TestClient tests asserting POST /api/env/reveal and the OAuth
mutation endpoints (disconnect/start/submit/cancel) return 401 with no session
cookie. Mutation-verified: neutering both the middleware gate and _require_token
flips all five to 200.
- Return the boundary snapshot from
_launch_session_boundary_memory_flush as a local value instead of
staging it on self._session_boundary_snapshot. The instance-attr
handoff could leak (no memory manager configured) or mis-fire a
stale snapshot on a later /new if an exception hit between staging
and consumption. A local variable eliminates the class; the helper
also returns None when no memory manager is configured so
new_session takes the inline-switch path.
- Drop the now-dead session_id kwarg from commit_memory_session:
after the redesign no production caller passes it (gateway, TUI,
compression all use the default), and speculative params are
rejected per AGENTS.md. The explicit-old-session need is served by
cli.py's direct engine call + commit_session_boundary_async.
- Drop the dead providers snapshot in commit_session_boundary_async
(only the emptiness check used it).
- Tests updated accordingly (dead-kwarg test removed, snapshot
assertion now covered by return-value contract).
Phase-2 gates: 2a tests/cli 1048 passed + 6 memory files 137 passed;
2b programmatic live smoke 0.38ms non-blocking caller, end→switch→sync
ordering verified; 2c structured 4-angle review — no Criticals, these
warnings fixed.
Deep review of the cherry-picked #16454 found the ad-hoc flush thread
raced new_session()'s inline on_session_switch(reset=True): memory
providers key off internal _session_id state (MemoryManager.on_session_end
takes no session id), so a late off-thread extraction ran against
post-rotation bindings — misattributing the old transcript to the new
session id, double-ingesting the old turn buffer (supermemory), or
double-committing (openviking already async-finalizes in
on_session_switch).
Redesign: new MemoryManager.commit_session_boundary_async queues
on_session_end + on_session_switch as ONE task on the manager's existing
single-worker background executor (the same worker sync_all already
uses). This preserves the strict end→switch ordering providers depend on,
serializes against per-turn syncs FIFO, keeps /new non-blocking, and
degrades to inline (pre-#16454 behavior) when the executor is
unavailable. No ad-hoc threads; no per-provider changes needed.
The context-engine on_session_end half stays synchronous in
_launch_session_boundary_memory_flush (cheap, must land before
reset_session_state rebinds the engine).
Exit durability: _run_cleanup calls the manager's existing
flush_pending(timeout=10) barrier before shutdown, so '/new then quit'
doesn't drop the queued extraction (shutdown_all's own drain is ~5s and
cancels queued tasks). Bounded well inside the 30s exit watchdog.
Tests: ordering invariant with slow (LLM-like) extraction, FIFO
serialization vs sync_all, switch-fires-even-if-end-raises, no-provider
no-op, CLI snapshot handoff + inline-switch fallback, sync engine
boundary, cleanup flush_pending.
Fixes#3356
Build the skills snapshot manifest in one directory walk, avoid importing gateway session context during CLI prompt startup, and reuse direct platform-list matching for snapshot entries.
