On Windows (and some Linux setups), an application like VS Code's
js-debug can hold 127.0.0.1:9222 while a Chromium browser launched
with --remote-debugging-port=9222 silently binds [::1]:9222 only.
The IPv4-only probe then (a) missed the live browser entirely and
(b) hung against the squatter — which accepts TCP but never answers
the /json/version HTTP probe — repeatedly, driving the whole connect
past the desktop GUI's RPC deadline:
'error: request timed out: browser.manage'.
Fix, applied to both the gateway browser.manage RPC and the CLI
/browser connect path via shared helpers in browser_connect.py:
- discover_local_cdp_url(): probe BOTH loopbacks (127.0.0.1 first,
then [::1]) and adopt whichever actually speaks CDP.
- local_port_in_use() + find_free_debug_port(): when neither loopback
speaks CDP but the port is held by another application, report the
squatter explicitly and launch the debug browser on a nearby free
port instead of fighting a bind conflict on 9222.
- Bound the gateway's post-launch wait to a 10s deadline (was up to
20 unbounded probe cycles) so connect always answers inside the
client RPC timeout.
- _wait_for_browser_debug_ready_or_exit() also probes dual-stack so a
successful launch pushed onto [::1] is classified 'ready'.
Verified on a live Windows repro (VS Code holding 127.0.0.1:9222,
Chrome 148 on [::1]:9222): connect now resolves http://[::1]:9222
in ~4.5s instead of timing out.
* feat(tui): rename /billing slash command to /topup
Behavior-preserving rename of the /billing command surface to /topup.
Changes: billing.ts → topup.ts (export topupCommands, name 'topup', new
help string), registry.ts import+spread updated, billingOverlay.tsx
overview header 'Usage credits' → 'Top up credits', billingCommand.test.ts
→ topupCommand.test.ts with import/lookup/call updated. RPC method names
(billing.state, billing.charge, etc.) and component/symbol names unchanged.
* refactor(tui): extract overlay primitives to shared module
Lift MenuRow, ActionRow, footer, and barCells() out of billingOverlay.tsx
into overlayPrimitives.tsx so the upcoming subscriptionOverlay.tsx can
import them instead of duplicating. spendBar now calls barCells() —
output is byte-identical. Pure behavior-preserving refactor.
* feat(tui): add /subscription + /topup CTAs to /usage output
Every /usage render now ends with 'Run /subscription to change plan
· /topup to add credits' — both the healthy (with-calls) and depleted
(no-calls) paths. Strings-only change, no WS1 dependency.
* feat(tui): add subscription wire types
Add SubscriptionTierOption, SubscriptionStateResponse, and
SubscriptionManageLinkResponse to gatewayTypes.ts. Type-only — no
usages yet. Mirrors the BillingStateResponse conventions (snake_case,
Decimals as strings) and reuses BillingErrorPayload for error mapping.
* feat(gateway): add subscription.state + subscription.manage_link RPCs
- agent/subscription_view.py: SubscriptionState dataclass + fail-open
build_subscription_state() (mirrors billing_view pattern) +
get_subscription_manage_link() for the Stripe deep-link.
- hermes_cli/nous_billing.py: get_subscription_state() +
post_subscription_manage_link() HTTP helpers for the two NAS endpoints
(WS1 Phase A/C). The manage-link endpoint raises BillingScopeRequired
when Remote-Spending is missing (Phase 4 step-up trigger).
- tui_gateway/server.py: _serialize_subscription_state() +
subscription.state RPC (fail-open) + subscription.manage_link RPC
(returns {ok,kind,url} or typed error envelope via
_serialize_billing_error). NOT added to _LONG_HANDLERS — synchronous
HTTP round-trip, not a device flow.
* feat(tui): add subscription overlay state types + store slot
Add SubscriptionScreen, SubscriptionOverlayCtx, SubscriptionOverlayState
to interfaces.ts and a 'subscription' slot to OverlayState. Wire it into
overlayStore.ts (buildOverlayState + $isBlocked). NOT added to
resetFlowOverlays preserve list — flow-scoped like billing, drops on
turn end.
* feat(tui): build SubscriptionOverlay — overview + confirm + handoff
Pure-render Ink component mirroring billingOverlay.tsx's structure.
Overview screen covers all 5 states (free-upgradeable, mid-tier,
top-tier, not-admin, downgrade-pending) + dunning. Confirm screen is
y/n deep-link to Stripe (NO in-terminal charge). Handoff is the
transient 'Opening Stripe' screen. Imports shared primitives from
overlayPrimitives.tsx. 8 render tests via renderSync covering every
state.
* feat(tui): add /subscription command + overlay wiring
- subscription.ts: SubscriptionOverlayCtx closure (openManageLink,
refreshState, requestRemoteSpending) + run handler that fetches
subscription.state and opens the overlay. Alias /upgrade.
- registry.ts: spread subscriptionCommands into SLASH_COMMANDS.
- appOverlays.tsx: render SubscriptionOverlay when overlay.subscription set.
- useInputHandlers.ts: Esc closes subscription overlay; promptOverlay OR
includes subscription so input is intercepted while open.
- subscriptionCommand.test.ts: 4 tests (fetch+open, logged-out sys line,
/upgrade alias, /subscription resolves).
* fix(tui/subscription): stop saying Stripe in deep-link copy + fix manage link kind type
Replace all user-facing 'Stripe' mentions in the /subscription overlay and
sys messages with 'your subscription page' — the deep-link target is NAS's
own /manage-subscription page, not the Stripe hosted portal. Stripe only
legitimately appears later at actual Checkout. Also add 'manage' to the
SubscriptionManageLinkResponse.kind union (NAS emits kind:'manage'; was
previously missing from the TypeScript type causing silent narrowing errors).
* feat(tui/subscription): render cancellation-scheduled note with headline precedence
Parse cancelAtPeriodEnd + cancellationEffectiveAt from the NAS contract
(camelCase) in the agent parser (_parse_current), emit cancel_at_period_end
+ cancellation_effective_at from the gateway serializer, extend the
SubscriptionStateResponse type, and render a warn note in OverviewScreen:
'Cancels on {date} — your plan stays active until then.'
Headline precedence when multiple flags co-occur:
past-due > cancel-scheduled > downgrade-pending > active
The downgradeNote guard is tightened to suppress when cancel is scheduled,
so at most one status line renders at a time.
* feat(tui/subscription): team-context screen — redirect to /topup for team orgs
Parse the NAS context:'personal'|'team' field (defaults to 'personal' for
unknown/missing values), emit it on the gateway wire, add it to
SubscriptionStateResponse. When context is 'team', SubscriptionOverlay
renders a dedicated read-only screen instead of the tier picker:
'This terminal is connected to {org_name}. Teams run on shared
credits — use /topup to add funds. Personal subscriptions live
on your personal account.'
The screen closes on Enter or Esc. The personal/tier-picker path is
unchanged.
* fix(subscription): drop manage-link gateway RPC, build URL locally
The NAS POST /api/billing/subscription/manage-link endpoint was dropped
(it added no server work — the target is the static /manage-subscription
page, not a Stripe-minted secret). Build the URL client-side instead:
{portal_base}/manage-subscription?org_id=<org.id>.
- Remove subscription.manage_link gateway RPC (server.py)
- Remove get_subscription_manage_link helper (subscription_view.py)
- Remove post_subscription_manage_link (nous_billing.py)
- Remove SubscriptionManageLinkResponse type (gatewayTypes.ts)
- Add org_id to SubscriptionState + wire through serializer + TS type
- openManageLink() builds the URL locally via buildManageUrl(), opens
it with the existing openExternalUrl(), no gateway round-trip
- Drop targetTierId param from openManageLink (v1 sends everyone to
/manage-subscription; no tier deep-link needed)
- Fix stale test expectations (Stripe copy → subscription page copy)
* chore(subscription): drop unused format_money import
* feat(cli): /subscription + /upgrade, /billing→/topup rename, /usage CTAs
Add the classic-CLI half of the terminal billing surface to match the TUI:
- /subscription (alias /upgrade) command + /topup (renamed /billing, keeps
'billing' as a back-compat alias) in the command registry.
- Drop the stale 'billing' entry from _SLACK_VIA_HERMES_ONLY (now cli_only).
* feat(subscription): CLI /subscription handler, drop dunning, current:null no-plan
- CLI _show_subscription mirrors the TUI overlay (plan read + tier list + usage
bar + browser deep-link via subscription_manage_url); credits render as counts.
- Adapt to the updated NAS read contract: remove is_past_due/dunning everywhere
(a card-failing subscriber returns as a normal plan now), and treat no-plan as
current:null (parser returns None) rather than an all-null object.
- HERMES_DEV_SUBSCRIPTION_FIXTURE env-driven fixtures + ui-tui fixture harness
drive every state (CLI + live TUI) with no portal.
Verified against handoff 2026-06-24_subscription-tui-handoff.md.
* feat(billing): CF-4 Remote-Spending revoked-terminal UX (NAS PR #481)
Wire the Remote-Spending gate denial contract end to end:
- nous_billing: BillingRemoteSpendingRevoked (403 remote_spending_revoked →
reconnect) + BillingSessionRevoked (401 session_revoked → re-login), distinct
from insufficient_scope; capture actor/code/recovery; 503 stays transient.
- gateway _serialize_billing_error threads the new typed kinds + actor/code/
recovery to the TUI.
- TUI renderBillingError: actor-aware revoke copy, kills the spend overlay
immediately (no 15-min zombie button), handles session_revoked, the dual-
emitted cli_billing_disabled/remote_spending_disabled, role_required,
idempotency_conflict; poll treats a mid-poll revoke as ambiguous (check
balance before retry), not a failure.
- CLI _billing_render_charge_error: same denial matrix, actor-aware copy.
Tests: gate-contract mapping + envelope (py) and revoke/session/disabled (TUI).
Per handoff 2026-06-24_remote-spending-TUI-contract-handoff.md.
* refactor(subscription): remove dead step-up scaffolding from /subscription
/subscription only opens a browser deep-link to manage-subscription — that needs
no billing scope, so it can never hit insufficient_scope. Drop the never-fired
'stepup' screen type, requestRemoteSpending ctx fn, and resumeScreen bookkeeping
(leftovers from a superseded plan). The resumable step-up lives on /topup, where
the charge actually gets gated.
* feat(tui/topup): resumable 'Allow Remote Spending' step-up on the charge path
Phase 4: when a charge returns insufficient_scope, the /topup modal no longer
tears down with a 'run /billing again' ConfirmReq. Instead it stays MOUNTED and
switches to a step-up screen:
- charge() is now awaitable, returning a discriminated outcome (submitted |
needs_remote_spending | error) so the overlay can route without closing.
- StepUpScreen: 'Allow Remote Spending' → await the device-flow grant (browser
opens via the existing out-of-band billing.step_up.verification event) →
replay the held charge (pendingCharge.amount) and settle, with no command
re-run. Never surfaces the raw billing:manage scope.
- armStepUp's fire-and-forget ConfirmReq replaced by requestRemoteSpending();
the leaky 'billing:manage' / 'Re-authorize' / 'run /billing again' copy is gone.
Tests: charge-outcome routing, step-up grant/deny, and a render test asserting
the step-up copy holds the amount and never leaks billing:manage.
Per handoff 2026-06-24_remote-spending-TUI-contract-handoff.md §2 (Grady #6).
* feat(billing): shared dollar usage model + two-bar view (drop "credits")
Single source of truth for the /usage and /subscription usage bars across
TUI + CLI. Reads the NAS account-info dollar fields (subscription/top-up/total
remaining, monthly allowance, renewal) and produces a surface-agnostic model:
two full-resolution bars (plan allowance + purchased top-up), a status
classification (free | healthy | low | depleted), and a human renewal date.
- agent/billing_usage.py: UsageModel/UsageBar, usage_model_from_account
(fail-open), build_usage_model (HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE-aware),
format_renews (ISO -> "Jul 24, 2026", Windows-safe), $5 low-balance threshold.
- tui_gateway/server.py: _serialize_usage_model/_serialize_usage_bar, a
usage.bars RPC, and the model embedded into subscription.state so the overlay
renders the same bars from its single fetch.
- Dollars only, never "credits"; two separate bars (not a crammed
three-segment one) for legibility at terminal widths.
- tests/agent/test_billing_usage.py: status classification, bar math
(clamp/over-cap), NaN/Inf rejection, fail-open invariants.
* feat(tui): dollar usage bars on /usage + /subscription, drop tier picker
Render the shared two-bar dollar model in both overlays; strip "credits" and
the in-terminal tier selection per UX feedback.
- overlayPrimitives.tsx: UsageBars (themed plan/top-up bars — gold allowance,
green top-up) + usageBarsText for the /usage panel. Plan name labels the
bar; "$X left of $Y · N% used" (disambiguated so the % matches); top-up
"never expires".
- subscriptionOverlay.tsx: status line dedupes ($X left once; bar carries the
breakdown), human renewal date, state-matched nudges (free upsell / <$5
low alert) with box-safe ASCII markers (! / >) instead of the width-unstable
emoji that broke the border. Tier picker removed — overview shows usage +
plan, then "Manage on portal" / "Close" (free users get "Start a
subscription"). No "credits" anywhere.
- session.ts: /usage renders the dollar bars + balance summary, falling back
to the legacy credits lines only when the model is unavailable; CTA reworded.
- gatewayTypes.ts: UsageModelData/UsageBarData wire types + usage on
SessionUsageResponse/SubscriptionStateResponse.
- Tests updated to the new contract (no "credits", "left of", dedup, markers).
* feat(cli): mirror dollar usage bars on /usage + /subscription
CLI parity with the TUI billing rework, from the same shared usage model.
- _print_nous_credits_block (/usage) and _subscription_overview render the
two-bar dollar view (plan name on the bar, "$X left of $Y · N% used",
top-up "never expires", total spendable) instead of the credits-worded block.
- Dollars only — dropped the tier catalog (no more "$N/mo (… credits)") and
every user-facing "credits"; team copy says "shared balance".
- Human renewal date via the shared format_renews; status line dedupes the
"$X left"; free upsell + <$5 low alert with ASCII markers.
- /subscription manage modal no longer dumps the raw manage-subscription URL
in its detail — the [1] Open / [2] Copy link / [3] Cancel options carry it.
Title is "Manage your subscription" (no in-terminal plan change). The raw URL
stays only in the non-interactive / not-admin fallbacks, which have no menu.
- /usage token-usage panel (model, tokens, cost, context) left untouched.
* feat(billing): embed dollar usage model into billing.state for /topup
The /topup overview renders the same two-bar dollar usage (plan + top-up) as
/usage and /subscription. Embed the shared usage model into the billing.state
RPC payload (mirrors subscription.state) so the overlay gets the bars from its
single fetch, and add the `usage` field to BillingStateResponse.
* feat(tui/topup): reorder overview + in-flight reauth with press-Enter resume
Reworks the /topup overlay per the Jun 19 review and the no-preflight decision.
Overview:
- Balance leads in the title ("Top up · balance $X"); the shared two-bar dollar
usage (plan + top-up) renders below. Dropped the old monthly-cap spend bar.
- "Add funds" is the first action (was "Buy credits"); auto-reload / monthly
limit / manage-on-portal follow. Dollars only — no "credits" anywhere.
- No "Enable terminal billing" menu item and NO scope preflight: whether the
terminal can charge is discovered reactively at pay time. (We deliberately do
not read/refresh the OAuth token to gate UI.)
Step-up (reached only on a charge's insufficient_scope 403):
- New 4-phase flow that keeps the modal mounted: prompt (one-time-setup
heads-up) → waiting (browser authorize) → granted (explicit "Press Enter to
resume") → replay the held charge → settle. The press-Enter beat is the
reassuring "you're back, finish your purchase" moment.
- Renamed user copy "Allow Remote Spending" → "Enable terminal billing"; never
leaks the raw billing:manage scope (guarded by the render test).
- topup.ts error copy de-crufted to terminal-billing wording, emoji removed.
Tests: step-up prompt copy, the no-raw-scope invariant, and new overview tests
(balance-in-title, Add-funds-first, two-bar usage, no "credits").
* feat(cli/topup): mirror overview reorder + in-flight reauth resume
CLI parity with the TUI /topup rehaul, from the same shared usage model.
- _billing_overview: balance in the title, the two-bar dollar usage (plan name
on the plan bar, top-up "never expires") in place of the old cap spend bar,
"Add funds" first, dollars throughout — no "credits", no scope preflight.
- _billing_handle_scope_required: now takes the held amount + idempotency key
and runs the in-flight flow — "Enable terminal billing" → browser device-flow
→ re-check the org kill-switch → press-Enter to resume → replay the held
charge (reusing the key so a double-submit collapses to one). Stops leaking
the raw billing:manage scope.
- Charge-error + buy/auto-reload copy de-crufted to terminal-billing/dollars.
- Tests updated to the new overview + buy copy.
* fix(billing): guard non-JSON 2xx responses in the billing HTTP client
A 2xx response with a non-JSON body — e.g. a reverse-proxy / SPA fallback HTML
page served when a billing route isn't actually mounted on a deployment — hit
json.loads() on the success path of _request() and raised a raw
json.JSONDecodeError. That escaped the typed-BillingError contract, so callers'
`except BillingError` missed it and fell through to a generic fail-open that
rendered as a misleading "not logged in" (observed when /api/billing/subscription
was briefly unshipped on staging: 200 text/html, x-matched-path /[...notFound]).
Now a non-JSON 2xx body raises a typed BillingError(error="endpoint_unavailable")
so surfaces degrade gracefully ("could not load …") instead of crashing or
mislabeling a valid session as logged-out. The 4xx/5xx path already guarded its
.json(); this closes the same hole on the success path.
Test: tests/hermes_cli/test_nous_billing_request.py — non-JSON 2xx → typed
error (not JSONDecodeError, not BillingAuthError), empty body → {}, valid JSON
parses.
* feat(billing/dev): add HERMES_DEV_BILLING_FIXTURE for offline card/scope testing
build_billing_state short-circuits to a fixture when HERMES_DEV_BILLING_FIXTURE
is set (mirrors HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE for the usage model). States:
nocard | card | card-autoreload | notadmin | billing-off | logged-out — so the
card-on-file gate, admin role, and kill-switch paths are exercisable offline
without a live portal. Env-var gated; returns None when unset (no prod leak).
Adds 8 behavior tests asserting the card/admin/billing-on contract per state.
* refactor(billing): fold /credits into /topup
/credits is redundant now that /topup shows the dollar balance + portal handoff.
Make 'credits' (and 'billing') aliases of /topup so typing /credits still works,
resolving to topup everywhere (CLI, gateway, Slack, TUI, autocomplete, help).
Remove the standalone /credits surface across 6 places:
- CLI _show_credits handler + dispatch
- gateway _handle_credits_command -> renamed _handle_topup_command, copy softened
to 'Manage billing on the portal' (the messaging billing surface; /topup is now
gateway-available so messaging keeps billing — credits was the only one before)
- TUI commands/credits.ts + creditsCommand.test.ts (deleted), registry entry
- tui_gateway credits.view RPC + the CreditsViewResponse type
- Slack _SLACK_VIA_HERMES_ONLY: credits -> topup
Sweep user-facing /credits -> /topup (usage-block hint, depletion notice) and
stale doc-comments. OpenRouter's /credits endpoint URL left untouched. Tests
updated (test_credits_folds_into_topup) or pruned for the removed symbols.
* fix(billing): card-on-file heads-up, no-card portal gate, /usage bar ordering, modal glyph
In-terminal charge (POST /charge against the org's server-held card, no card ref
leaves the client):
- card present: confirm screen shows 'Your card saved on the portal will be
charged' + a 'Manage on portal' escape option (CLI); heads-up line (TUI)
- no card on file: /topup overview + buy flow detect it and route to the portal
to add a card, instead of offering a charge that 403s no_payment_method
/usage bar ordering: route the dollar block through _cprint consistently. The
Plan: line (_cprint) and the bar (raw print) flushed to different buffers under
patch_stdout and interleaved nondeterministically; now Plan: -> bar -> status/CTA
is stable across all states.
Modal glyph: strip the leading emoji from bordered _prompt_text_input_modal
titles — it measures 1 char but renders 2 columns, shifting the box's right
border (the stray '|'). Includes the f-string 'Pay $X?' title.
Small /credits -> /topup string bits in cli.py ride along with the surrounding
charge edits (the fold lives in the sibling refactor commit).
* refactor(billing): apply safe simplify-pass fixes
Three low-risk cleanups from a parallel simplify review (reuse/quality/efficiency):
- dev fixture portal URL: reuse the prod host (was drifted to staging-* — a real
mismatch vs subscription_view's _DEV_FIXTURE_PORTAL)
- TUI billingOverlay choose(): collapse two byte-identical branches (needsCard +
the not-full else both = portal-or-close at index 0) into one tail; the only
divergent path (full && !needsCard → buy/auto/limit) stays explicit
- /topup overview comment: correct the stale 'buy_flow detects no_payment_method'
note (the overview's no-card gate fires first, so reaching Add funds implies a
card on file)
Skipped (judgment): the orphaned CreditsView.depleted field (harmless, on a live
dataclass), the defensive card gates in _billing_buy_flow/_confirm_and_charge
(cheap correct defense on the money path), and folding the no-card handoff into a
shared helper (touches 4 money-path sites for tidiness — not worth the risk here).
* fix(billing): reactive charge gating — drop card preflight, react to 403 (scope→reauth, no-card→portal)
* refactor(billing): drop the /credits alias entirely
The /credits fold made it an alias of /topup; now remove that too. Typing
/credits is an unknown command, not a silent redirect — billing lives only on
/topup (with /billing kept as the old command's back-compat name). Dropped the
alias from the registry CommandDef and the TUI topup.ts; updated the test to
assert /credits resolves to nothing (no command, no alias).
* docs(billing): fix stale comment in _billing_overview — describe reactive no-card path
The comment still described the removed overview-level card gate ('no-card case
handled above'). Corrected to: the buy flow reacts to the server's
no_payment_method 403 and hands off to the portal at charge time (no preflight).
* refactor(billing): simplify-pass — share usage-payload helper, drop dead bar wire fields + redundant admin gate
* refactor(billing): drop the /billing alias too — /topup is the only billing command
Following /credits removal, retire the old /billing name as well. /topup now has
NO aliases — both /credits and /billing are unknown commands. Dropped the alias
from the registry CommandDef and TUI topup.ts; fixed the one live user-facing
straggler (the not-logged-in message said 'then /billing' → /topup) and the
_show_billing docstring/default-arg references. Test asserts /topup carries no
aliases and neither old name resolves.
* fix(billing): code-review fixes — money-path + parity bugs
Money path (TUI):
- auto-reload "Turn off" now echoes current threshold/top_up_amount so the
PATCH succeeds (was sending {enabled:false} → invalid_request → stayed ON)
- charge poll honors the 5-min cap on the 429/503 throttle branch too (was
rescheduling forever); cap folded into one timedOut() helper
- step-up resume reacts to the replay outcome instead of unconditionally
closing on a reassuring line with no charge made
- synchronous submit guard on Confirm so two key events can't double-charge
Gateway:
- billing.step_up routes typed errors through _serialize_billing_error (was a
raw {error:'error'} dict → generic copy for session_revoked)
- billing.state / subscription.state / usage.bars / session.usage moved to
_LONG_HANDLERS (blocking portal HTTP no longer stalls the main stdin loop)
CLI:
- _billing_render_charge_error handles insufficient_scope without leaking the
raw billing:manage scope name on a post-grant replay re-raise
Python model:
- subscription_view tier parse None-coalesces tierOrder/dollarsPerMonth so a
free tier's 0 survives ($0, not "—"; correct sort order)
TUI parity/robustness:
- /usage shows formatted renews_display, not raw ISO renews_at
- subscription overview guards a null pending_downgrade_at (was "on null.")
- subscription overview surfaces a message instead of silently closing when
portal_url is missing
- buildManageUrl wraps new URL() so a malformed portal_url can't throw out of
the Ink key handler
* fix(billing): cross-surface bar direction, formatted cancel/downgrade dates, Slack alias gating
- CLI plan bar now fills by REMAINING (fuel-gauge), matching the shared model's
fill_fraction, the top-up bar, and the TUI — same account renders identically
on both surfaces (#8)
- subscription serializer emits cancellation_effective_display /
pending_downgrade_display (format_renews); TUI shows 'Jul 1, 2026' not raw ISO (#14b)
- _SLACK_VIA_HERMES_ONLY now includes the 'billing' alias so it follows its
canonical /topup via /hermes instead of leaking a native Slack slot (#9)
* fix(billing): thread idempotency key through the TUI step-up replay (#2)
Mint a stable idempotency key when the purchase amount is chosen; it rides
pendingCharge into both the Confirm charge and the post-grant step-up replay,
so a retried charge dedups server-side (the gateway already echoes the key).
A fresh amount selection gets a fresh key. Combined with the sync submit guard,
a double-submit now collapses to one charge.
* refactor(billing): remove dead /subscription tier-picker scaffolding (#18)
The in-terminal plan picker was cut (deep-link only), leaving a whole unreached
state machine. Removed end-to-end:
- TUI: ConfirmScreen, HandoffScreen, the 'confirm'/'handoff' screen types,
pendingTargetTierId, and the now-dead onPatch threading (collapsed the dispatch
to a single overview screen + folded the duplicate Box wrapper)
- gateway: the tiers serialization + SubscriptionTierOption wire type
- model: SubscriptionTier, _parse_tier, _coalesce, _dev_tiers and the tiers field
(never displayed on either surface, so this supersedes the tier-parse fix)
- tests: dropped the confirm/handoff/tier-passthrough tests; slimmed the overview
render tests
Net: a large dead-code cull (no behavior change — the picker never ran).
* test(billing): parametrize usage-model tests; drop dead is_low/is_free props
Collapse the fail-open + status-classification cases into parametrized tables
(same coverage, ~80 fewer lines) and remove the now-unused UsageModel.is_low /
is_free properties (only a test pinned them).
* fix(billing): revert dead 'billing' Slack-via-hermes entry — the alias was dropped
#9 was based on a stale review diff: /billing is no longer an alias of /topup
(dropped earlier), so routing it via /hermes filtered a name that doesn't exist.
* test(billing): cull redundant TUI billing tests (parametrize, merge dupes)
usageCommand: collapse 3 CTA tests into one + a panel helper.
billingStepUp: merge the two step-up render asserts.
topupCommand: parametrize requestRemoteSpending + the revoked-actor pair, drop
the redundant happy-path-submitted test. Money-path + error-mapping coverage
preserved.
* refactor(billing): extract _usage_bar_lines — one source of truth for the CLI bars
The plan + top-up bar format was copy-pasted across _print_nous_credits_block,
_subscription_overview, and _billing_overview. Extract a helper returning the
ready-to-print lines; each caller keeps its own print fn (the _cprint-ordering
constraint stays) and resolves its plan-name label. Centralizes the format so
the three surfaces can't drift.
* feat(billing): NAS V3 subscription-change HTTP client wrappers
Add the four write-side wrappers for the V3 subscription contract to nous_billing,
each a thin _request() call (reusing auth, JSON, 401-retry, typed errors):
- post_subscription_preview → POST /subscription/preview (chargeless quote)
- put_subscription_pending_change→ PUT /subscription/pending-change (downgrade/cancel)
- delete_subscription_pending_change → DELETE .../pending-change (resume/undo)
- post_subscription_upgrade → POST /subscription/upgrade (the money route)
pending-change takes a discriminated body (tier_change | cancellation); upgrade
requires an Idempotency-Key (mandatory, validated client-side before any I/O).
Tests assert the exact method/path/body/header each wrapper puts on the wire.
* feat(billing): subscription tier catalog + change-preview models
Reinstate the catalog the in-terminal picker needs (was culled when /subscription
was deep-link-only): SubscriptionTier + SubscriptionState.tiers + _parse_tier, with
_coalesce so the free tier's 0 tierOrder/price survives a falsy-or. Parse the
catalog from GET /subscription's tiers and seed _dev_tiers into every fixture.
Add SubscriptionChangePreview + subscription_change_preview_from_payload for the
POST /preview quote (effect/amountDueNowCents/effectiveAt/reason + tier delta); a
malformed/missing effect fails safe to 'blocked' so a bad quote never reads as a
charge. Module docstring updated: the overlay is no longer deep-link-only.
* feat(billing): gateway RPCs for the V3 subscription change flow
Add subscription.preview / .change / .resume / .upgrade RPCs, each wrapping its
nous_billing call and reusing _serialize_billing_error for the typed envelope
(so a 403 still drives the device step-up). upgrade mints + echoes the
idempotency key and surfaces status + recovery_url so the TUI can route an
SCA/decline to the portal. Re-add the tier catalog to _serialize_subscription_state
(price pre-formatted) for the picker. All four are pool-routed (_LONG_HANDLERS) —
preview + upgrade hit Stripe and must not stall the main stdin loop.
* feat(billing): in-terminal subscription change flow (TUI)
/subscription is no longer deep-link-only: it drives the change in-terminal
against the V3 contract via the new gateway RPCs. The overlay is a state machine
overview → picker → confirm → result:
- picker lists the tier catalog with upgrade/downgrade hints (current + free
excluded; free=cancel, on the overview);
- confirm shows the previewed effect — pay $X now (upgrade) / scheduled at date
(downgrade) / cancel at period end / blocked-with-reason — then applies it;
- an upgrade's SCA/decline routes to the portal via the result screen's recovery
link; resume/cancel/downgrade are chargeless.
Starting a NEW subscription still deep-links (needs a fresh card). insufficient_scope
points to /topup (the step-up stays there, not duplicated here). Adds the wire
types (tiers + preview/upgrade responses), widens the overlay ctx + screen state,
and threads onPatch. Render tests cover every screen.
* feat(billing): in-terminal step-up + clearer scheduled-change UX (TUI)
Two improvements to the /subscription overlay:
Step-up re-auth in place. When a mutation (preview/change/upgrade/resume) returns
insufficient_scope, route to a new 'stepup' screen that grants terminal billing
via billing.step_up and AUTO-REPLAYS the held action on grant — no bounce to
/topup. Scope routing is centralized in previewAndRoute/applyPendingAndRoute/
resumeAndRoute (shared by the picker, confirm, overview + the step-up replay). The
browser opens via the shared global verification handler; copy never leaks the raw
billing:manage scope.
Make a scheduled change unmissable. A downgrade/cancel was one buried warn line
that read as 'nothing happened'. Now the overview leads with a banner
(⏳ Scheduled change · Ultra ──▶ Plus · <date> · you keep Ultra until then), the
status line echoes the transition (Plan: Ultra → Plus), 'Keep <tier> (undo)' is
promoted to the first olive action, the result screen says 'your plan doesn't
change today', and confirm gets a charged-now / scheduled chip.
* feat(billing): full in-terminal subscription change flow in the classic CLI
Bring the CLI to parity with the TUI overlay — /subscription is no longer
deep-link-only. A paid admin/owner gets picker → preview → confirm → apply,
mirroring the /topup buy flow's modal idioms:
- _subscription_change_menu (change / undo-or-cancel / manage-on-portal),
- _subscription_pick_tier (catalog with upgrade/downgrade hints),
- _subscription_preview_and_confirm (POST /preview → effect-aware confirm),
- _subscription_apply (schedule / cancel / resume chargeless; upgrade charges
the sub's card, SCA/decline → portal),
- _subscription_handle_scope_required (insufficient_scope → step_up_nous_billing_scope
inline, then replays the held preview/mutation — reusing the upgrade idempotency key).
Also the scheduled-change UX fix: the overview leads with a prominent banner
(⏳ Scheduled change · Super ──▶ Plus · <date> · you keep Super until then) and the
status line echoes the transition, matching the TUI. Members / non-interactive /
free still deep-link. Tests drive every branch via a mocked modal + nous_billing.
* fix(billing): close TUI subscription money-path holes (ultracode review)
- Un-consented charge (P1): the step-up now HOLDS at a 'granted' phase requiring
an explicit Continue, and an abortedRef gates the grant's late .then — a cancel
during the browser flow can no longer replay the held upgrade + charge.
- Missing idempotency key (P2): mint it when building an upgrade 'pending' so it
rides into confirm AND the step-up replay (was always undefined → gateway minted
a fresh key per call, defeating dedup).
- Navigate-away re-charge (P2): confirm 'back' is guarded by submittingRef while an
apply is in flight.
- Ambiguous charge (P2): a transport-null upgrade is reported as 'may or may not
have charged — re-check', never a flat failure that invites a blind retry.
- Typed step-up denial (P2): requestRemoteSpending returns {granted,error,message};
the screen maps session_revoked / remote_spending_revoked / rate_limited to the
right recovery instead of always 'an admin must allow it'.
* fix(billing): close CLI subscription money-path holes (ultracode review)
- Bounded step-up (P2): bust the 30s token cache after a grant (it held the
pre-grant unscoped token; _request only busts on 401, not 403) and replay ONCE
with allow_stepup=False so a still-denied scope can't re-prompt/re-open in a loop.
- Stray-keystroke charge (P3→near-P2): the upgrade confirm defaults to 'Go back',
not 'Pay ' — a bare Enter can't move money.
- Fail-open on unknown effect (P3→near-P2): an unrecognized preview effect now
fails SAFE (portal hand-off) instead of scheduling a real PUT.
- 'cancel' word collision (P3): the Close row uses value 'close' so typing 'cancel'
can't hit it and falsely report 'Cancelled'.
- blocked effect re-offers the portal; undo is promoted to the first row when a
change is pending (TUI parity).
* fix(billing): guard the step-up resume against double-fire (2nd ultracode pass, BUG A)
The P1 fix split the auto-replay into a user-triggered resume() on the granted
screen, where the default row is the charging action — but resume() had no
re-entrancy guard, so a double-Enter fired two replays (the upgrade dedups on the
shared key, but schedule/cancel/resume replays carry none → duplicate PUT/DELETEs).
Mirror billingOverlay.resume(): flip to a 'resuming' phase + a resumingRef so it
fires at most once, and block 'back' once resuming (no re-mount → no second submit).
* fix(billing): CLI charge-route ambiguous-charge caveat (2nd ultracode pass, BUG B)
The TUI hardened upgradeResult(null) but the CLI charging route did not: a
transport/timeout/500 (or unknown 2xx status) on post_subscription_upgrade — after
NAS may have already prorated + charged — printed a flat failure, and a manual
re-run mints a FRESH idempotency key the server can't dedup → a real second charge.
Now the charge route reports 'your card may or may not have been charged — re-run
/subscription to check before trying again' and steers away from a blind retry
(the CLI can't persist the key across a command re-run). Also thread allow_stepup
through the preview→apply replay (BUG C.1) and route the requires_action/
payment_failed portal lines through _cprint for deterministic ordering.
* fix(billing): cap the TUI step-up replay to avoid a resume-deadlock (final pass, R1)
The round-2 resume guard ('resuming' phase + resumingRef) could deadlock: on a
REPEAT insufficient_scope during the post-grant replay, the route helpers did
onPatch({screen:'stepup'}) — a no-op since we're already mounted on stepup (no key
→ no remount) — leaving phase='resuming'/resumingRef=true frozen on 'Applying your
change…'. Thread allowStepUp through previewAndRoute/applyPendingAndRoute/
resumeAndRoute; the resume() replay passes false, so a repeat scope denial surfaces
a 'still isn't enabled' result instead (mirrors the CLI's allow_stepup=False cap).
Also: applyPendingAndRoute(pending=null) now routes to overview, not a stranded
Promise.resolve().
* fix(billing): narrow the CLI ambiguous-charge catch to indeterminate outcomes (final pass, R2)
The round-2 fix caught EVERY non-scope BillingError as 'may or may not have been
charged' — but typed pre-charge rejections (BillingRateLimited 429, BillingSessionRevoked
401, BillingRemoteSpendingRevoked 403, role_required/no_payment_method 4xx) never
reached Stripe, so the ambiguity copy was wrong and dropped their real recovery hints.
Now route those to _subscription_render_error, and reserve the ambiguous copy for
genuinely indeterminate outcomes (network_error / endpoint_unavailable / status None /
5xx). Tests: rate-limit stays deterministic; a real transport failure stays ambiguous.
* feat(billing): card visibility + guided add-card path in /topup and /subscription
Consume the NAS card-resolver contract (card.resolvedVia + chargeability) across
both surfaces, degrading cleanly on today's NAS (fields absent → prior behavior):
- WHICH card: the payment lines render provenance — 'Visa ····4242 — the card on
your subscription' (resolvedVia → label; unknown rung/older NAS → masked card +
the old generic line). Link payment methods render the brand alone (last4 is
empty — never 'Link ····').
- Presence at a glance: the /topup overview now shows 'Card: …' or 'No saved
card on file' for the full-menu case, plus a warning when the resolver marks
the card needs_repair (failing auto-reloads) on overview/buy/confirm.
- Add-card path: with no card on file, 'Add funds' becomes a guided screen —
open the portal billing page, then 'I've added it — check again' re-fetches
billing state and continues straight into the purchase (also recovers a
transient display miss). Cards are never entered in-terminal.
- /subscription upgrade confirm names the exact card ('Visa ····4242 — the card
on your subscription — will be charged'), best-effort via billing.state and
only when the resolution rung matches what a subscription charge actually
uses (subPin/customerDefault, mirroring Stripe's precedence); otherwise the
generic line stands. Fail-soft: any lookup error keeps the generic line.
- Gateway serializes display/resolved_via/needs_repair; TUI ctx gains
refreshState (topup) + fetchCard (subscription); new offline fixtures
card-sub / card-repair.
Tests: TUI ctx mocks extended; CLI suites cover provenance + repair-warning
render, the Link guard, the add-card path (continue-after-recheck + abandon),
the sub-confirm card line, and keep the confirm-time lookup offline in tests.
* fix(billing): consume server canChangePlan, preserve distinct refusal codes, drop dead chargeability
- Parse canChangePlan verbatim from NAS payloads into BillingState and
SubscriptionState; fall back to the legacy OWNER/ADMIN check only when the
server omits the field (FINANCE_ADMIN stops being locked out where NAS
authorizes it). Role model updated to the 5-role enum.
- Add the autoReload.card union (canonical | distinct | none) end-to-end:
parse + gateway serialization, distinct carries payment_method_id/brand/last4
with nullable display fields.
- stripe_unavailable (503, transient) and upgrade_cap_exceeded (429, daily cap)
now survive to the wire as their own codes instead of collapsing into
rate_limited; new exception types subclass BillingRateLimited so existing
backoff call sites keep working.
- Remove card.chargeability / needs_repair parsing, serialization, fixtures and
the cli warning blocks: NAS #670 removed the field, so the repair path was
permanently dead. The future card-health signal belongs to the NAS W1/W3 work.
- Tests: five-role fixtures, canChangePlan override/fallback, all three
auto-reload card variants, 429-vs-503 code preservation end-to-end.
* feat(tui): render the full NAS billing refusal surface
- billingOverlay: divergence notice when auto-refill charges a distinct card
(portal deep-link to reconcile); needs_repair warnings removed with the field.
- topup: explicit copy for consent_required, org_access_denied,
upgrade_cap_exceeded, auto_top_up_disabled_failures and stripe_unavailable
(honors retry_after); processing_error is an explicit charge-failure case;
transport loss during charge polling now reads as an unconfirmed outcome
(check balance before retrying), matching the revocation path.
- subscriptionOverlay: branch on upgrade reason, not status, so an SCA-needing
upgrade routes to portal verification even while NAS pre-#711 labels it
payment_failed; after an upgrade, poll subscription state until the tier
flips (bounded), rendering applying/still-applying rather than assuming
immediacy.
- Capability-neutral refusal copy (owner, admin, or finance admin) replaces
the stale org admin/owner wording.
- gatewayTypes: BillingAutoReload.card union added, needs_repair removed.
* docs(billing): client-side billing state and refusal lifecycle table
Enumerates, from the code, every billing.state shape and typed refusal the
gateway serves and the exact TUI copy + recovery each renders. Acceptance from
the billing-integration handoff: no NAS billing state or typed refusal falls
through to a generic toast; unknown codes still degrade to the default branch
that surfaces the server message.
* feat(attribution): conflict-free contributor mappings via contributors/emails/ directory
The AUTHOR_MAP dict in scripts/release.py was a merge-conflict magnet:
every concurrent salvage PR appended entries to the same lines of the
same file, so parallel PRs re-conflicted on every merge to main.
New system: one file per email under contributors/emails/ — filename is
the commit-author email, first non-comment line is the GitHub login.
File additions never conflict, so any number of PRs can add mappings
concurrently.
- scripts/release.py: AUTHOR_MAP is now LEGACY_AUTHOR_MAP (frozen)
merged with the directory at import time (directory wins). All
existing consumers (resolve_author, contributor_audit.py) unchanged.
- scripts/add_contributor.py: idempotent CLI to add a mapping; refuses
conflicting reassignments (incl. against the legacy map), validates
email/login shapes.
- contributor-check.yml: attribution gate now accepts a mapping file OR
a legacy entry; failure message prints the exact add_contributor
command. Also auto-resolves bare <login>@users.noreply.github.com
emails is intentionally NOT added (kept id+login form only, matching
previous behavior).
- contributor_audit.py: guidance now points at add_contributor.py.
- tests/scripts/test_contributor_map.py: 12 tests covering loader,
merge precedence, CLI idempotency/conflict/validation, subprocess E2E.
* feat(ci): one-shot per-file flake retry in the parallel test runner
A failing test FILE is re-run once in a fresh subprocess. Pass-on-retry
counts as green but is loudly reported in a '⚠ FLAKY' summary section
(with both attempts' output preserved) so the flake gets fixed instead
of eating a full-run rerun. Deterministic failures fail both attempts —
regressions cannot be laundered green.
- --file-retries N / HERMES_TEST_FILE_RETRIES (default 1, 0 disables)
- E2E verified: simulated first-run-fail flake goes green with banner;
deterministic failure still exits 1; retries=0 restores old behavior.
This converts the dominant CI failure mode (one timing-sensitive test
flaking a 4600-test shard, requiring a manual 10-minute rerun and an
agent triage loop) into a self-healing retry that costs one file's
runtime.
* test(approval): loosen wall-clock perf bounds 0.15s -> 2.0s
These guard against catastrophic regex backtracking (seconds-to-minutes
class), but 0.15s is within scheduler-stall noise on loaded shared CI
runners — test_max_accepted_separator_free_input_is_fast failed a CI
shard this week on runner load alone. 2.0s still catches the regression
class with zero flake surface.
* fix(ci): job timeouts everywhere + retries on all network installs
Reliability pass over every workflow:
- timeout-minutes on all 21 jobs that lacked one (a hung job previously
burned the 6-hour default runner budget)
- ./.github/actions/retry wrapped around every network-fetching install
that lacked it: pip installs (deploy-site, skills-index), npm ci
(deploy-site website, upload_to_pypi web + ui-tui), uv sync (docker
test deps). Deterministic build steps (npm run build) deliberately
NOT retried — split into separate steps so a real build failure fails
fast instead of retrying 3x.
* docs(agents): document the file-retry flake policy
* fix(ci): curl retries on deploy hook + skills-index probe
* fix(ci): kill the remaining transient-failure classes in workflows + Dockerfile
From the workflow reliability audit:
- tests.yml: duration-cache restore had NO restore-keys while saves use
run_id-suffixed keys — the cache never matched once, so LPT slicing
always ran blind and unbalanced slices pushed heavy files toward the
per-file timeout. One-line restore-keys fixes slice balancing.
- Label gates (lint ci-reviewed, supply-chain mcp-catalog-reviewed):
'gh pr view || true' turned an API blip into 'label absent' → false
BLOCKING failure. Now 3x retry, and API failure is reported as an API
failure instead of a missing label.
- detect-changes action: compare API retried before failing open (was
silently running all lanes on any blip).
- uv-lockfile-check: 'uv lock --check' resolves against PyPI — retried
so registry blips don't read as 'lockfile stale'.
- docker.yml merge job: imagetools create retried (Docker Hub eventual
consistency on just-pushed digests).
- Dockerfile: apt-get Acquire::Retries=3; s6-overlay ADDs converted to
curl --retry 3 (ADD cannot retry; checksums still enforced); npm
--fetch-retries=5; playwright chromium fetch retried 3x.
- Advisory artifact uploads (per-slice durations, ci-timings report)
get continue-on-error so an artifact-service blip can't fail a green
test slice.
* fix(tests): kill the two root-cause flakes — leaking pre-warm timer + env-dependent provider list
- test_tui_gateway_server.py: session.create / non-eager session.resume
arm a 50ms threading.Timer (_schedule_agent_build) that outlives its
test and fires into the NEXT test's _make_agent mock, racily
corrupting captured state (the recurring session_resume shard
failures). Replaced the per-test whack-a-mole stub with a module-wide
autouse fixture; the 3 worker-lifecycle tests that genuinely need the
deferred build opt back in via @pytest.mark.real_agent_prewarm (new
marker in pyproject).
- test_api_key_providers.py: PROVIDER_ENV_VARS is now derived from the
live PROVIDER_REGISTRY instead of a hand-list that had drifted
(missing HF_TOKEN / DEEPINFRA_API_KEY) — resolve_provider('auto')
tests failed on any machine with HF_TOKEN exported. E2E-verified with
HF_TOKEN/DEEPINFRA_API_KEY set: 42/42 pass.
* test: de-flake 30 timing-sensitive test files for loaded CI runners
Root-cause fixes from the flake audit (session-DB mining + repo sweep):
Event-based sync instead of sleep-sync:
- title_generator: mock sets threading.Event, wait(10) replaces
sleep(0.3) hoping the daemon thread got scheduled
- docker zombie_reaping / profile_gateway: poll-for-state helpers
replace fixed 1-3s sleeps (s6 transitions + SIGCHLD reaping are async)
- process_registry tree test: select()-bounded readline replaces an
unbounded blocking read (parent wedge now fails THIS test with a clear
message instead of an opaque rc=124 file kill); SIGTERM grace 1s->2s
(the 1s partition window mid-interpreter-startup is how a child PID
escaped the live-system guard in CI)
Timeout raises (loaded 8-way-sliced runners see ~5s scheduling floors;
all of these complete in ms-to-1s when healthy so the raises cost
nothing on green runs):
- subprocess/thread waits <= 2s raised to 10-15s across mcp_tool,
mcp_circuit_breaker, mcp_reconnect_retry_reset, mcp_parked_self_probe,
mcp_cancelled_error_propagation, registry, clarify_gateway, interrupt,
voice_cli_integration, docker_environment, session_store_lock_io,
planned_stop_watcher, cli_interrupt_subagent, thread_scoped_output
(joins now also assert not is_alive() so stragglers fail loudly)
- wall-clock discrimination ceilings loosened where the guarded hang is
10x larger: local_background_child_hang 4s->10s, interrupt_cleanup
setup 5s->20s + pgid-exit 30s->60s, mcp_stability grandchild spinup
5s->15s, protocol/gil-starvation fast-handler 0.5s->2s,
iso_certify_seam 1.5s->5s, wait_for_mcp_discovery 0.1s->1s
- narrow assertion windows widened: honcho first-turn wait 0.4..0.65 ->
0.25..2.0 (property is bounded-not-hung, not an exact wall-clock);
compression fork-lock TTL 1s->3s (12 refresh chances per lease);
compression-lock expiry margins symmetric (ttl 0.05->0.5, sleep 1.0)
- telegram hung-DNS bound 1.0->1.4 (fake hang is 1.5s — must stay under)
* fix(tests): repair indentation from de-flake batch edit
* fix(tests): harden env isolation and replace remaining sleep-sync races
The full 42k-test run and complete npm check surfaced three more classes:
- Environment isolation: local ~/.honcho defaultHost and SSH_* variables
leaked into Python/TUI tests. Pin the default Honcho host in the
hermetic fixture, isolate the one fallback test from ~/.honcho, and
blank SSH_* around terminalSetup tests. This flipped 20 false failures
back to deterministic behavior on developer machines.
- Background-thread sleep-sync: Honcho async writer tests patched
time.sleep globally, then busy-polled with that same mocked sleep. Under
full-suite load the poller could starve the writer. Each test now waits
on an Event emitted by the exact flush/retry transition; 30/30 passed
under 15-way contention.
- Desktop streaming: the test slept 80ms and assumed a 500ms timer could
not fire before its assertion. A loaded runner descheduled the test for
>500ms and both chunks arrived. Producer controls now gate second-chunk
and completion transitions explicitly.
Also make file-retry observability complete: a self-healed flaky file now
prints BOTH attempts' full output in the FLAKY summary. Two behavioral
runner tests prove pass-on-retry is green+loud+traceback-preserving, while
a deterministic failure remains red.
* refactor(ci): use gh bot pat, better retries
refactor(ci): use retry action for PR label fetch
the retry action now captures stdout as a step output, so it can serve
double duty: retry + output capture for commands like 'gh pr view' whose
result must be consumed by later steps.
Retry action gains:
- 'stdout' output (heredoc-delimited to preserve newlines)
- tee to temp file so stdout still streams to the job log
- step id 'retry' for output reference
Both lint.yml and supply-chain-audit.yml now use the retry action
directly with 'command: gh pr view ...' and read
steps.<id>.outputs.stdout.
ci: use AUTOFIX_BOT_PAT for all gh CLI / GitHub API auth
Replace secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN and github.token with
secrets.AUTOFIX_BOT_PAT across all workflows and composite actions
that use the gh CLI or GitHub API. The PAT has consistent permissions
across fork PRs (where GITHUB_TOKEN is read-only), avoids API rate
limit sharing with the default token, and is already used by
js-autofix.yml for the same reasons.

Model-picker audit follow-through — closes the remaining pieces of the
"switch one session, switches everywhere / can't tell whose session this
is" report class:
- tui_gateway: `config.set key=fast` with a session no longer writes the
global agent.service_tier to config.yaml (sibling of the earlier
`reasoning` scoping fix). It pins create_service_tier_override
("priority" / "" for explicit normal) so lazy builds and rebuilds keep
the choice; the desktop's per-model presets were rewriting the global
tier on every model pick. Fast-support validation now checks a draft's
picked model, and `config.get key=fast` reads the pre-build pin.
- desktop: owning-profile tag (initial chip + tooltip/aria label) on
pinned rows and search results in the All-profiles sidebar, and on the
chat header once a second profile exists (#66003).
- desktop: composer model pill shows a pin dot + tooltip when a manual
sticky pick is overriding the Settings default for new chats (#62055).
Closes#66003. Addresses #62055.
The widened resume sites pass repair_alternation=True; the DB doubles in
tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py (separate from tests/tui_gateway/) needed
the same signature update as Frowtek's originals.
Add the flag-gated compute-host supervisor, delta/control protocol, PPID orphan guard, inline fail-open path, synthetic GIL-heavy turn seam, and AC-4 certify harness.
Verified on current origin/main: 343 focused tests pass; Ruff and diff checks pass; 360s AC-4 run with six heavy lanes passes at 6.11ms serving p99 with zero stalls and valid load.

A fallback chain entry can name its API key via key_env (or the
api_key_env alias) per the fallback-providers docs, but only the gateway
path resolved it — TUI/desktop, cron, and CLI setup fallbacks ignored it,
so a fallback provider whose key lives in a non-standard env var never
resolved on those surfaces.
Centralize the inline-api_key-then-key_env lookup in
hermes_cli/fallback_config.resolve_entry_api_key() and use it at all four
fallback resolution sites (tui_gateway, cron scheduler, gateway runner,
CLI setup mixin); the CLI mixin also gains the base_url passthrough the
other surfaces already had.
Salvaged from PR #43861 (surgical reapply — the original branch predates
the #65264 fallback restructuring).
Switch provider and model together after setup-time auth failure. Serialize global auth-store merges under target-specific locks and preserve auth-to-shared lock ordering for profile OAuth refreshes.
test_run_prompt_submit_requeues_all_unstarted_notifications_with_real_threading
asserted strict FIFO order of the requeued events. The completion_queue is
process-global, and notification pollers leaked by earlier session.init tests
in the same file legitimately steal-and-requeue foreign-session events
(_notification_poller_loop's belongs-elsewhere branch), rotating the queue —
CI slice 6/8 saw [batch_3, batch_2] and failed on ordering alone.
Assert the actual requeue contract instead: batch_1 is consumed while
batch_2 and batch_3 both remain queued — membership via a deadline drain
(an event can be transiently held by a poller mid-cycle), not order.
Verified: single test 10/10 green, full file 337/337 across 3 consecutive
CI-parity runs.
Apply positive-proof routing to every addressed notification in the registry and TUI poller while preserving ownerless legacy behavior and TUI delivery for poll-observed completions.
Remove the unused exact-key drain helper and cover ordinary success and failure, origin, compression-lineage, orphan, and poll-observed paths.
Complements NousResearch/hermes-agent#54785.
Two complementary fixes for cross-session background-process notification
leakage in the TUI/Desktop multi-session path (#42674, #35652).
1. Poller orphan guard: after _notification_event_belongs_elsewhere
returns False, check whether the event has a non-empty session_key
that differs from the current session. If so the owner session is
gone — drop the event instead of hijacking it into an unrelated
session transcript.
2. Post-turn drain filter: the existing drain_notifications() pops every
event from the global queue regardless of ownership. Added
_drain_owned_notifications() which applies the same ownership routing
used by the poller (consume own, requeue foreign-live, drop orphan),
and wired it into the post-turn safety drain.
Complementary to PR #42731 which addresses a separate code path in the
same bug class. Together they close#42674.
Two test mocks stubbed the old zero-arg signature; the chokepoint refactor
added an optional model param that call sites now pass. Swept the full test
tree for other stale stubs of the changed functions — the rest use
MagicMock/patch(return_value=...), which tolerate the new arg.
tui_gateway session.list/most_recent now pass compact_rows=True
(#47437 salvage); the keyword-only fake signatures in
test_tui_gateway_server.py rejected the new kwarg and CI slice 6/8
failed with TypeError. Other list_sessions_rich fakes use **kwargs and
are unaffected.
Carry the live TUI session id with async delegation completion events and prefer the commissioning UI session when desktop pollers share the completion queue. Resolve compressed session keys to their continuation before treating events as orphaned, and capture the live parent agent session id for TUI/ACP dispatch.
The desktop app's chat panel reuses tui_gateway as its backend, so every chat session was stamped platform="tui". That made the agent read terminal-specific platform guidance while running in the graphical desktop chat surface.
Resolve the misclassification at its source: tui_gateway now picks platform="desktop" when HERMES_DESKTOP=1 and HERMES_DESKTOP_TERMINAL is unset, and keeps platform="tui" for the embedded terminal pane and standalone TUI. Add a PLATFORM_HINTS["desktop"] entry describing the actual chat surface (full GFM markdown, MEDIA: intercept, inline images). Move the embedded-pane clarifier to the platform-hint resolution site so it appends only to the tui hint under HERMES_DESKTOP_TERMINAL=1. Delete the now-dead desktop-hint block from build_environment_hints() that competed with the platform hint.
Standalone TUI sessions produce byte-identical prompts as before; the new desktop hint and clarifier are assembled once per session in the stable tier, so prompt caching is preserved.
* feat(install): warn pip/Homebrew installs are unsupported (CLI, TUI, desktop)
pip and Homebrew are now Unsupported install methods per
website/docs/getting-started/platform-support.md. Surface a
warn-don't-block deprecation notice everywhere the install method is
already shown, pointing at the platform-support docs and noting these
installs will not receive further updates. NixOS (Tier 2) is untouched.
- hermes_cli/config.py: shared is_unsupported_install_method() /
format_unsupported_install_warning() helpers so the wording and docs
link stay consistent across every surface.
- hermes_cli/banner.py: generalize the existing pip-only banner
warning to also cover Homebrew.
- hermes_cli/main.py: hermes update and hermes update --check print
the warning before proceeding (still update; warn, don't block).
- tui_gateway/server.py: session.info gains install_warning.
- ui-tui: SessionPanel renders install_warning alongside the existing
'N commits behind' notice.
- apps/desktop: SessionRuntimeInfo/GatewayEventPayload gain
install_warning; applyRuntimeInfo + the live session.info event fire
a snoozable warning toast via a new reportInstallMethodWarning(),
mirroring the existing backend-contract-skew toast pattern. i18n
strings added for en/zh/zh-hant/ja.
- Tests: updated pip banner assertions for the new wording, added a
Homebrew banner test, and two tui_gateway session_info tests
(install_warning present for pip, absent for git).

_SlashWorker call sites now pass profile_home=; the fakes' 2-arg
__init__ raised TypeError inside the spawn guard, leaving
slash_worker=None and failing the orphan-race regression tests.
The -m flag seeds HERMES_MODEL/HERMES_INFERENCE_MODEL for the launched TUI
process only. But the per-turn config sync (_sync_agent_model_with_config)
computed its target via _config_model_target(), which fell back to those
env vars whenever config.yaml had no model.default — the normal state for
custom-provider-only setups. The sync then replayed the -m model as a
/model switch, and with model.persist_switch_by_default (default true)
_persist_model_switch wrote model.default/provider/base_url into
config.yaml. A one-shot CLI flag became the permanent global model,
visible in every new session and every model picker.
Two-sided fix:
- _config_model_target() no longer falls back to the env seed. Empty
model = config expresses no preference = sync is a no-op. The agent
keeps the session-scoped -m model; config.yaml edits still sync.
- _apply_model_switch() gains persist_override; all three internal
callers (config sync, /moa one-shot swap, /moa post-turn restore) pass
persist_override=False so session-mechanical switches can never write
config.yaml regardless of the persist-by-default setting. User-typed
/model keeps its existing flag/config behavior.
E2E-verified against an isolated HERMES_HOME with a custom-provider-only
config + -m env seed: sync no longer fires, config.yaml byte-identical,
_resolve_model() still returns the seed for the session's own agent.
test_verification_status_outside_workspace_is_not_applicable passed tmp_path as
the cwd and asserted status == not_applicable, relying on tmp_path having no
project-marker ancestor. _marker_root() walks up to ~6 levels, so a stray marker
in a shared tmp-root ancestor (e.g. a /tmp/package.json left by another tool)
made project_facts_for() resolve tmp_path as a workspace and flip the status to
unverified. Green in clean CI, red on any dev box with a polluted /tmp.
Force the no-facts precondition by monkeypatching project_facts_for -> None so
the test deterministically exercises the not_applicable branch regardless of
ambient filesystem state. Test-only; no production change.
Dashboard /chat for the default (launch) profile attaches to the
dashboard process's in-memory TUI gateway. The Node PTY child receives a
bridged TERMINAL_CWD env var, but the in-memory gateway process does not,
so cwd resolution fell through to os.getcwd() (wherever `hermes
dashboard` was launched) and ignored the configured terminal.cwd.
Read the launch profile's config.yaml directly in the in-memory cwd
resolution: a configured terminal.cwd now wins over a stale process env
and the launch directory. Widened to the resume/fallback session-cwd
sites (not just _completion_cwd) via a shared _default_session_cwd()
helper so fresh AND resumed sessions honor the config.

The `prompt.submit` handler in the TUI gateway lets a client trim the
conversation back to a chosen user turn via `truncate_before_user_ordinal`.
It validated only the upper bound (`ordinal >= len(user_indices)`) and never
the lower one. A negative ordinal therefore sailed straight past the guard and
fell into Python's negative indexing: `user_indices[-1]` resolves to the *last*
user turn, so the history was silently sliced to everything before it and that
truncated list was immediately committed to disk with `db.replace_messages`,
which deletes and reinserts the whole row in one transaction.
The impact is severe and unrecoverable: a single out-of-range value — from a
client bug, a hidden/real user-message desync, or any present or future
frontend that emits a relative ordinal — permanently destroys the user's
conversation on disk instead of returning the intended `4018` error. Because
the gateway is deliberately frontend-agnostic, it cannot assume the value is
well-formed; it must validate it.
The fix is minimal and safe: extend the existing guard to reject negatives on
the very same error path the upper bound already uses. No in-memory history is
mutated and no DB write happens for an invalid ordinal, so a bad value now
fails closed with no data loss. The valid-ordinal path is untouched.
N/A
- [x] 🐛 Bug fix (non-breaking change that fixes an issue)
- `tui_gateway/server.py`: in the `prompt.submit` handler, change the
ordinal guard from `if ordinal >= len(user_indices)` to
`if ordinal < 0 or ordinal >= len(user_indices)` so a negative ordinal is
rejected with error `4018` before any history slice or `replace_messages`
write occurs. Added a comment explaining the negative-indexing hazard.
- `tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py`: add
`test_prompt_submit_rejects_negative_truncate_ordinal`, which submits a
`truncate_before_user_ordinal` of `-1` and asserts the handler returns
`4018`, leaves the in-memory history intact, never marks the session
running, and never calls `replace_messages`. Added the `pytest` import used
by the new test's fail-fast guards.
1. Check out this branch and run
`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py -- -k negative_truncate`
— the new test passes.
2. Reproduce the bug: temporarily revert the guard to the old
`if ordinal >= len(user_indices)` and rerun — the test fails because the
handler truncates the history and starts a turn instead of returning `4018`.
3. Full file run: `scripts/run_tests.sh tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py`
(the only failure is the pre-existing, environment-dependent
`test_browser_manage_connect_default_local_reports_launch_hint`, which also
fails on clean `main` when a Chromium browser is installed locally).

The salvaged fix guards with `if ctx_max and last_prompt`, but last_prompt
comes from `last_prompt_tokens or 0` — the post-compression -1 sentinel
(conversation_compression) is truthy, so it leaked context_used=-1 on the
transitional turn. Clamp <0 to 0 so it reads as unknown (no gauge), matching
the CLI status-bar path (cli.py _get_status_bar_snapshot).
Follow-up on the salvaged #50518 (r266-tech).
_get_usage substituted the cumulative lifetime session_total_tokens into
the current-window context_used when an external context engine did not
report last_prompt_tokens, producing impossible status-bar readings
(e.g. 1.9m/120k clamped to 100%). Populate context_used/percent only
from a real current occupancy; leave the gauge unset otherwise. The
built-in compressor always reports last_prompt_tokens, so it's unaffected.
Fixes#50421.
* feat(display): friendly human-phrased tool labels for built-in tools
Built-in tools now render ChatGPT-style status verbs ('Searching the web
for ...', 'Reading <file>', 'Browsing <url>') on the CLI spinner and
gateway/desktop tool-progress instead of the raw tool name.
- agent/display.py: _TOOL_VERBS map + build_tool_label() + set/get
friendly-labels flag (default on). Custom/plugin/MCP tools fall back to
the raw preview; verbose gateway mode left untouched (debug surface).
- tool_executor.py / tui_gateway / gateway: route the three spinner sites,
the TUI _tool_ctx, and the gateway all/new progress line through the label.
- config: display.friendly_tool_labels (default True, per-platform aware).
Zero new core tool / schema footprint — pure display layer.
* docs: add PR infographic for friendly tool labels
* fix(display): preserve arg preview in gateway friendly labels + update tests
The first gateway pass re-derived the label from the callback's `args`, which
is empty ({}) at the gateway tool.started callsite — the command/query lives in
the `preview` string, so terminal rendered as a bare '💻 Running' and dedup
collapsed consecutive commands. Now the gateway prefixes the verb onto the
already-computed preview via get_tool_verb/tool_verb_connector/verb_drops_preview,
preserving the command/url/query. CLI spinner path (real args) keeps build_tool_label.
Tests: update test_run_progress_topics exact-format assertions to the friendly
form ('💻 Running pwd'), add a format-agnostic preview extractor for the
truncation tests (works for both quoted-legacy and verb-prefixed output).
* test(tui): update resume-display context to friendly tool label
_tool_ctx now uses build_tool_label, so the desktop resume-view context for a
search_files turn reads 'Searching files for resume' instead of the bare
'resume' preview — consistent with live tool-progress. Update the assertion.
* test(tui): harden no-race worker test against sibling shard leakage
test_session_create_no_race_keeps_worker_alive flaked under -j 8: a daemon
build thread leaked from a prior session.create test in the same shard process
fires close/unregister against its own (foreign) session_key after this test
patches the global approval hooks, polluting the captured lists. Scope the
assertions to this session's own session_key so the regression intent
(this session's worker/notify must survive) is preserved while the test
becomes immune to shard composition. Not related to friendly-tool-labels.
_append_model_switch_marker() appended the post-/model-switch context marker
to session history as {"role": "system"}. The cached system prompt is
prepended to the API message list (conversation_loop.py), so this marker
became a SECOND system message mid-array after prior user/assistant turns.
Strict OpenAI-compatible providers (vLLM, Qwen) reject any system message
that is not at the beginning of the array, returning HTTP 400 and killing
the conversation on the next turn.
Flip the marker to role="user" (history entry + both session-DB persist
sites), matching the existing personality-overlay marker which already uses
role="user". repair_message_sequence() then coalesces it with adjacent user
turns as needed.

test_session_resume_uses_parent_lineage_for_display resumes via the
deferred (non-eager) path, which fires a 50ms background Timer
(_schedule_agent_build) calling whatever server._make_agent is patched
in at that moment. The timer outlived the test and landed in the next
test's (_follows_compression_tip) _make_agent mock, racily setting
agent_session_id='tip' and flaking 'assert tip == cont_tip' on CI.
Root-cause fix: stub _schedule_agent_build to a no-op in the leaking
test (it only asserts display history). Defense in depth: the victim's
fake_make_agent now setdefault()s so a stray late build can't overwrite
the synchronous eager build's captured id.
Three CI flakes hit while landing the credential-pool restore fix; all three
were timing/wall-clock races in the tests, not product bugs (each passes
locally and the assertions are correct):
- test_entire_tree_is_sigkilled_not_just_parent: _terminate_host_pid SIGKILLs
synchronously, but the test's 4s budget after a 1s in-function SIGTERM grace
left almost no slack for the kernel to tear down 3 processes + reparent the
children to zombies under loaded-CI scheduling. Widen the wait to 15s and
make the liveness predicate tolerant of vanished-pid / zombie races. The
assertion never weakens: every tree member must end up dead or zombie.
- test_session_resume_follows_compression_tip: appended messages got
time.time() timestamps (~now) while the test forced session started_at into
the past, so the get_compression_tip MAX(m.timestamp) tiebreaker depended on
wall-clock ordering. Pass explicit, well-separated message timestamps so the
chain resolution is deterministic by construction.
- test_non_retryable_exhaustion_arms_cooldown: asserted the short (5s)
exhaustion cooldown with a tight +1.0s slack, which false-fails when
wall-clock jitter between the 'before' snapshot and the cooldown computation
exceeds a second on a loaded runner. Widen to +30s — still cleanly below the
60s rate-limit window it must distinguish from.
Ensure TUI/desktop stop targets the actual conversation thread and cancels any queued next prompt, including the lazy agent-start window, so a stopped session cannot keep running or restart itself.
When the primary provider raises AuthError (e.g. expired OAuth token),
_make_agent now walks the configured fallback_providers/fallback_model
chain before giving up — matching the behavior that cron/scheduler.py
and cli_agent_setup_mixin.py already have.
Fixes#47627
Follow-up to the salvage of #45035 + #48682. The two PRs touched different
functions (resolve_resume_session_id vs get_compression_tip) but #45035's
descendant walk followed ANY parent_session_id child, so a delegate/subagent
child could hijack the resume target. Apply the same _branched_from /
_delegate_from / source!='tool' exclusion the rest of hermes_state.py uses,
so the resume walk only follows genuine compression continuations.
Also updates the unrealistic delegation test fixture to carry the real
_delegate_from marker, and updates 3 list_sessions_rich test mocks for the
order_by_last_active kwarg #48682 added.

These three assert the eager build contract — stored runtime overrides /
profile db reach _make_agent synchronously, and the agent binds to the
compression tip. Under deferred-by-default the build runs off-thread, so
they raced the timer (green in CI, flaky locally). Pin them to
eager_build; deferred coverage lives in the protocol tests.
The TUI model-switch persistence (_persist_model_switch) rewrote the entire
model config block via save_config(), destroying sibling keys the user set
under model: (model_slots, model_fallback, base_url, ...) on every switch.
Use targeted, atomic, comment-preserving save_config_value("model.default" /
"model.provider" / "model.base_url") writes instead, so a model switch only
touches the keys it changes.

Parity with the classic CLI status bar's ⛓ indicator (PR #51441). The
Ink TUI status bar now shows ⛓ N for live background/async subagents
(delegate_task batches + background single delegations).
- tui_gateway/server.py: _get_usage() embeds active_subagents from
tools.async_delegation.active_count() — the same registry the CLI
reads — onto the existing per-update usage payload, guarded so a
raising active_count() leaves the field off without breaking usage.
- ui-tui appChrome: new 'subagents' status segment (breakpoint w>=92,
slots between bg and cost in the shed-order), renders ⛓ N from
usage.active_subagents.
- Usage / SessionUsageResponse types gain active_subagents?.
Distinct from the turn-scoped SpawnHud / /agents overlay, which mirror
live in-turn subagent.* events; this is the persistent registry count.
* feat(cli): /reasoning full to show complete thinking, not 10-line clamp
The post-response Reasoning recap box hard-clamped long thinking to the
first 10 lines, so there was no way to see the full reasoning trace after
a turn (live streaming already shows it in full). Add display.reasoning_full
(default off) plus /reasoning full|clamp to toggle it at runtime; the clamp
truncation note now points at the command. Addresses repeated user requests
to show all thinking tokens.
* test(gateway): de-snapshot /reasoning help assertion
The test froze the exact args-hint literal '/reasoning [level|show|hide]',
which the new full/clamp args change to '[level|show|hide|full|clamp]'.
Convert to an invariant: assert /reasoning is in help and carries its core
args, not the exact hint string.
* feat(tui): /reasoning full|clamp parity in tui_gateway
The classic-CLI reasoning_full toggle had no TUI equivalent — typing
/reasoning full in the TUI fell through to parse_reasoning_effort and
errored. The TUI renders thinking as an expand/collapse section (no fixed
10-line recap), so map full -> sections.thinking=expanded (raw, uncapped
via thinkingPreview mode='full') and clamp -> collapsed, persisting
display.reasoning_full for cross-surface config consistency.
The TUI /compress slash side-effect compressed the session, synced the
key, and emitted session.info — but returned an empty string, so the
user saw no 'Compressed: N → M messages / ~X → ~Y tokens' feedback. The
CLI (_manual_compress) and gateway (slash_commands) paths both already
call summarize_manual_compression; the TUI slash path was the lone gap.
Snapshot history + rough token estimate before and after compaction and
return the formatted summarize_manual_compression() feedback, mirroring
the session.compress RPC handler. The estimate uses the same
estimate_request_tokens_rough(system_prompt, tools) inputs as the RPC
path, re-reading the system prompt after compaction (it may be rebuilt).
