Registers 200 plugin commands on top of the native + COMMAND_REGISTRY set
and asserts the tree never exceeds Discord's 100-command limit, that native

Allow file tools to edit shell startup files, user package-manager configs, and Hermes control files that the user can already modify directly. Keep hard blocks for SSH keys, .env/OAuth token stores, mcp-tokens, pairing files, and system privilege files.
Auto-compression rewrites history mid-turn, which made long threads look

A chat-completions response that carries real text or tool calls *alongside*
a `message.refusal` note is a normal, usable turn — the model did work. The
prior logic flipped finish_reason to `content_filter` whenever a refusal
string was present, so the conversation loop reframed a content-bearing turn
as a *failed* safety refusal (failed=True) and buried the model's actual
output inside the "model declined" template, or dropped tool calls entirely.
Only promote to a terminal `content_filter` when the refusal is the sole
payload (no visible text AND no tool calls). The refusal explanation is still
recorded in provider_data in every case for observability. Refusal-only
responses (the bug this feature targets) are unaffected and still surface
terminally; the empty+refusal, bare content_filter passthrough, and no-refusal
common cases are byte-identical to before.
Updates the partial-content test to the corrected contract and adds a
tool_calls-alongside-refusal regression guard.
OpenRouter (and every other OpenAI-compatible provider) uses the default
chat_completions transport, so it is already covered by the refusal fix:
an upstream Claude / moderation refusal arrives as
finish_reason="content_filter" (often empty content, no message.refusal).
Add a regression test asserting the transport passes that finish reason
straight through to the loop's content_filter handler.
(cherry picked from commit 60168a513b)
A Claude refusal (HTTP 200, stop_reason="refusal", empty content) was
laundered into a generic retry loop and surfaced as a misleading
"rate limited / invalid response" or "no content after retries" error,
burning paid attempts reproducing a deterministic refusal.
This hit two distinct paths:
- Direct Anthropic (anthropic_messages): validate_response rejected the
empty-content refusal *before* normalize_response mapped refusal ->
content_filter, so it fell into the invalid-response retry loop.
- Nous Portal / OpenAI-compatible (chat_completions): the portal surfaces
a Claude refusal via message.refusal with empty content, which sailed
past validation and died in the empty-response retry loop.
Fix (one unified content_filter dispatch for all backends):
- AnthropicTransport.validate_response: accept empty content when
stop_reason == "refusal" so it flows to normalize_response.
- ChatCompletionsTransport.normalize_response: promote message.refusal to
content + a content_filter finish reason.
- conversation_loop: handle finish_reason == "content_filter" - fire the
api_request_error hook (content_policy_blocked), try a configured
fallback once, else return a clear terminal refusal message. Never retry
a deterministic refusal.
Supersedes #43084, which fixed only the direct-Anthropic path and could
not reach the chat_completions/portal path.
Tests: transport-level (validate_response refusal, message.refusal
promotion) + end-to-end loop (refusal surfaced, exactly one API call).
(cherry picked from commit 01f546f92c)
Parse provider-reported image pixel ceilings so many-image Anthropic requests can recover by shrinking Retina screenshots below the stricter limit instead of retrying the same rejected payload.
Both the regular and execute_code dispatch paths forward task_id into
registry.dispatch via middleware _dispatch lambdas but silently dropped
session_id. Dispatch-layer hooks (e.g. set_enforcement_fn) that correlate
calls with the active session received "" for every invocation.
Pass session_id=session_id at both _dispatch call sites inside
handle_function_call, matching the existing task_id pattern. Hooks
already received session_id; this closes the registry.dispatch gap.
Rebased onto current main where dispatch is wrapped by
run_tool_execution_middleware — the old direct-dispatch sites from
#28479 no longer exist.
test(dispatch): add tests for session_id forwarding (NousResearch#28479)
Covers standard and execute_code paths through the middleware wrapper.
Verifies task_id forwarding is not broken by the change.
The previous test patched ssl.create_default_context globally with a bare
SSLContext that has zero CA certs. Both verify_ca_bundle() and the macOS
fallback got the same mocked context, so the test verified nothing useful:
both paths produced empty get_ca_certs() and the assertion that no
exception escaped was vacuously satisfied.
Only mock the fallback call (no cafile) — let the certifi call hit the
real SSL stack and fail with SSLError on the broken PEM. The mock
fallback returns a context with load_default_certs() so the test now
verifies the real scenario: broken certifi → SSLConfigurationError,
macOS system trust store → success.
Also pads the broken PEM past the 1 KB size guard so the size check
doesn't short-circuit before ssl.create_default_context(cafile=...) runs.

A stale certifi CA bundle after a partial `hermes update` used to crash
the agent on the first outbound HTTPS call with a raw traceback and
trap the gateway in a retry loop.
This patch:
* Adds `agent/errors.py` with a typed `SSLConfigurationError`
* Adds `agent/ssl_guard.py` with a `verify_ca_bundle()` pre-flight
that asserts the bundle exists, is non-trivial in size, and can build
a working SSLContext. On macOS, it falls back to the system trust
store when the bundle is empty but the system store is healthy
(covers corporate proxies / MDM setups).
* Wires the guard into `run_agent.py` and `gateway/run.py` right
after the `hermes_bootstrap` import, inside a try/except so a bug
in the guard itself can never prevent startup.
* Adds a `SSL / CA Certificates` section to `hermes_cli doctor` so
users can detect the failure with one command.
* Adds unit tests covering the healthy, missing, empty, skip-env, and
macOS-fallback paths.
* Adds an RCA document describing the failure mode and the recovery
path (`pip install -e .`).
When the bundle is broken the user sees:
\u26a0\ufe0f SSL certificate bundle issue detected.
Run: pip install -e .
`HERMES_SKIP_SSL_GUARD=1` disables the check for sandboxed
environments that ship their own trust store.
Three tests covering: a stale .bak poisoning a failed update's move/restore, an orphaned .bak misread as a user deletion, and a partially written dest blocking restore-on-failure. All three fail on current main without the fix.

tools/approval.py already denies tee/redirection writes to every
_SENSITIVE_WRITE_TARGET (~/.ssh/*, ~/.netrc/.pgpass/.npmrc/.pypirc, shell
rc files, ~/.hermes/config.yaml/.env) via the DANGEROUS_PATTERNS tee/`>`
rules, but cp/mv/install were only paired for _SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH (/etc) and
the project-relative env/config target. So `cp evil ~/.ssh/authorized_keys`
(SSH-key implant / persistence), `cp creds ~/.netrc`, and `cp evil ~/.bashrc`
(login-time command injection) auto-approved while the equivalent tee/`>`
forms were denied — an unpaired write deny is theater (same rationale as
#14639 / commit 4e9d886d, which paired the terminal side for
~/.hermes/config.yaml writes but did not touch these cp/mv/install verbs on
the broader sensitive set).
Add one (cp|mv|install) DANGEROUS_PATTERNS entry reusing the existing
_SENSITIVE_WRITE_TARGET fragment, anchored via _COMMAND_TAIL so it fires on
the destination (last arg) only: reading OUT of a sensitive path
(`cp ~/.ssh/config /tmp/x`) stays auto-approved. Description differs from the
system-config cp entry so the two keep distinct approval keys (no silent
cross-approval). Additive — does not subsume the /etc or project-config rules.
Adds TestSensitiveCopyMovePattern: 5 positive cases (ssh authorized_keys,
ssh private key via mv, netrc via install, bashrc, ~/.hermes/config.yaml) +
2 negative guards (copy FROM ssh, unrelated copy). The ssh/netrc/bashrc
positives fail on main and pass on this branch; the negatives stay green
both ways.
Carry forward focused follow-ups from PR #45741: treat PTB's raw Bot API 10.1 response shapes safely, recognize real missing-endpoint errors, preserve link preview settings on rich sends, and lock the rich limit to Telegram's character-based cap.
The salvaged fix's two regression tests mock adapter.handle_message, so
they only assert the pre-claimed sentinel is set/cleaned around a stub —
they never drive the real dispatch chain. Add a full-path test that
exercises _schedule_resume_pending_sessions -> _guarded_handle_message ->
adapter.handle_message -> _process_message_background -> _handle_message
and asserts the resumed session's agent runs EXACTLY ONCE: not zero (the
pre-claim must not self-bounce the resume into a queued no-op) and not
twice (the duplicate-agent bug #45456 the fix targets). Also assert no
leaked sentinel and no orphaned pending event after the drain settles.
Tighten the _guarded_handle_message docstring: on current main the real
sentinel is taken over inside _handle_message (not _process_message_background),
and note the `is _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL` guard only releases the slot we
ourselves placed, never one a live run owns.
When the gateway restarts and auto-resumes an interrupted session, an
inbound message arriving in the window between `asyncio.create_task()`
and the task's first await could spin up a second AIAgent for the same
session. Both agents would then process messages concurrently,
producing interleaved duplicate responses (#45456).
Fix: set `_AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL` in `_running_agents` immediately
after the "already running" check, before creating the task. This
closes the race window — any inbound message sees the slot as occupied
and queues behind the auto-resume.
A `_guarded_handle_message` wrapper ensures the pre-claimed sentinel is
always released, even if `handle_message` raises before reaching
`_process_message_background` (whose `finally` block handles normal
cleanup).

Bedrock Converse rejects non-default sampling parameters for Opus 4.7 and 4.8 with a ValidationException. Reuse the Anthropic-native sampling-param guard in the Bedrock kwargs builder so those models omit temperature/topP while older Claude and non-Claude models keep existing behavior.
Includes the stop-sequence regression from the parallel fix to ensure stopSequences still pass through for restricted Opus models.

The dashboard's public /api/status liveness endpoint is in PUBLIC_API_PATHS
and bypasses dashboard auth, yet it returned absolute hermes_home,
config_path, env_path, the gateway PID, and the internal gateway health URL.
That exceeds the shape its own allowlist documents as public ("version,
gateway state, active session count, and the dashboard auth-gate shape. No
bodies, no session content, no secrets"), leaking deployment recon to any
unauthenticated caller on a network-exposed (gated) bind.
Withhold host-local detail unless the bind is loopback / --insecure, where
the dashboard is local-only and the caller is already inside the trust
envelope -- the same split should_require_auth draws. The NAS liveness probe
and the auth-gate badge are unaffected.
Adds invariant tests for both modes (gated withholds, loopback keeps).
Keep the own-policy fail-closed hardening from PR #45444, but still trust WeCom groups.<id>.allow_from because the adapter already checked that sender allowlist before dispatching to gateway auth.
Own-policy adapters (WhatsApp, WeCom, Weixin, QQBot, Yuanbao) default dm_policy/group_policy to "open", which forwards every sender. The gateway's adapter-trust shortcut in _is_user_authorized blanket-trusted those platforms when no env allowlist was set, so an operator who enabled one with only credentials authorized the entire external network -- the fail-open SECURITY.md section 2.6 forbids ("an allowlist is required for every enabled network-exposed adapter").
Trust the adapter only when its effective policy for the chat type is an actual "allowlist" restriction (the case #34515 was protecting). "open"/"pairing"/anything else falls through to default-deny, where {PLATFORM}_ALLOW_ALL_USERS / GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS and the pairing flow remain the explicit opt-ins.
