Bare 'hermes sessions prune' keeps the historical 90-day default, but any
filter — now including --source — suppresses the implicit cutoff, so
'prune --source cron' targets ALL cron sessions instead of silently only
those older than 90 days (the surprise a user hit live: 'No sessions
match ... source cron' despite plenty of recent cron runs).
- CLI preview + confirmation now show the match count plus the oldest
and newest matching session start times before deleting.
- Dashboard /api/sessions/prune mirrors the semantics: attribute filters
without an explicit older_than_days match all ages (model_fields_set
distinguishes an explicit 90 from the Pydantic default); dry_run
responses gain oldest_started_at/newest_started_at.
- Docs + argparse help updated; tests for both surfaces.
* feat(sessions): full filter surface for prune + new bulk archive subcommand
hermes sessions prune previously only supported --older-than N (integer
days) and --source — no way to target a window like 'the last 5 hours'
(e.g. a batch of CI smoke-test sessions), and no non-destructive option.
- SessionDB.prune_sessions gains keyword filters that AND together:
started_before/started_after epoch bounds, title_like, end_reason,
cwd_prefix, min/max_messages, archived tri-state. Default call is
byte-for-byte compatible (90-day cutoff, ended-only, source).
- New SessionDB.list_prune_candidates (backs --dry-run + confirmation
previews) and SessionDB.archive_sessions (bulk soft-hide via the
existing set_session_archived lineage-aware path; nothing deleted).
- CLI: prune gains --newer-than/--before/--after (durations like 5h/2d/1w,
bare days, or ISO timestamps), --title, --end-reason, --cwd,
--min/--max-messages, --include-archived, --dry-run. New
'hermes sessions archive' takes the same filters, requires at least one,
and is idempotent. Both show a preview before confirming.
- Dashboard /api/sessions/prune accepts the same filters + dry_run.
- Docs: sessions.md + cli-commands.md updated.
Filter parsing lives in hermes_cli/session_filters.py with unit tests;
DB filters covered in tests/test_hermes_state.py.
* feat(sessions): prune/archive filters for model, provider, user, chat, branch, tokens, cost, tool calls
Extends the prune/archive filter surface to everything identifiable in
the sessions table:
- --model (substring on model slug), --provider (exact on
billing_provider, case-insensitive), --user, --chat-id, --chat-type
(exact), --branch (substring on git_branch), --min/--max-tokens
(input+output), --min/--max-cost (USD, actual_cost_usd falling back to
estimated_cost_usd), --min/--max-tool-calls.
- SessionDB prune/archive/list_prune_candidates now share the filter
kwargs via **filters into _prune_filter_where (unknown names raise
TypeError); candidates listing + CLI preview now include the model.
- Any attribute filter (except legacy --source) suppresses the implicit
90-day default so 'prune --model X' matches all ages.
- Dashboard /api/sessions/prune passes the new fields through.
- Docs + tests updated (7 new DB tests, 3 new parser tests).
Raise the CLI login floor from 180s to 315s (OAuth callback window 300s
+ headroom, matching web_server's existing constant), and let the GUI
re-auth path honor a configured connect_timeout larger than 315s.
Follow-up to @srojk34's basename-denylist widening. Two gaps the
basename-only guard left, both covered by the two canonical guards it
mirrors:
- Directory-tree stores mcp-tokens/ (live MCP OAuth tokens) and pairing/
are denied as whole trees by gateway.platforms.base._ROOT_CREDENTIAL_DIRS
and agent.file_safety, but the dashboard files API descends into subdirs,
so mcp-tokens/<server>.json (non-canonical basename) stayed
listable/readable/downloadable. Add _is_sensitive_path(), a path-aware
check that blocks any path with a credential-directory component, and
route all three call sites (list/read/download) through it.
- Add .git-credentials to the basename set (agent.file_safety blocks it too).
- Correct the docstring: it now says it mirrors the credential-FILE basenames
of the canonical guards, with the directory trees handled by the new
path-aware helper (the prior wording overstated parity).
Scope stays on the read/list/download exfil surface (#57505); the write
endpoints (upload/mkdir/delete) are a separate threat and out of scope.
Tests: dir-tree descent blocked (mcp-tokens/pairing per-server files),
.git-credentials blocked, plus a positive control that a benign subdir file
stays browsable. Mutation-checked (neuter _is_sensitive_path -> new tests
fail). 39 web_server_files + fs tests pass, ruff clean.
_is_sensitive_filename() only blocked .env / .env.<suffix>, but the
dashboard Files tab's managed root is operator-configurable and, per the
docker-mount scenario #57505 was filed against, can point directly at
HERMES_HOME — where the canonical credential stores enforced elsewhere
in the codebase (gateway.platforms.base._ROOT_CREDENTIAL_FILES,
agent.file_safety.get_read_block_error) all live: auth.json, OAuth
token stores, webhook HMAC secrets, the Bitwarden disk cache. None of
those basenames were blocked, so the Files tab could still list, read,
and download them. .envrc (direnv) also slipped past the old check
since it doesn't equal ".env" or start with ".env.".
Widen the basename set to mirror both existing guards so the dashboard
doesn't lag behind them.
Post-merge follow-ups + several review rounds + a hub-search rework, folded together.
Merge-scuff restores (a stale-base refactor had reverted two live-on-main fixes):
- gateway: SessionStore compression-tip healing + its regression test.
- desktop: messaging session/transcript polling in desktop-controller
(MESSAGING_POLL / ACTIVE_MESSAGING_SESSION_POLL, refreshMessagingSessions,
refreshActiveMessagingTranscript, the richer sameCronSignature) so inbound
platform traffic updates live again instead of freezing until manual refresh.
Profile-switch isolation (epoch/close/guard on every profile-scoped async):
- Hub store clears + in-flight runHubAction bails (and swallows the post-switch
404 instead of a phantom toast); hub preview/scan/search/sources profile-scoped.
- MCP: probe/auth epoch guards, dirty-draft reset, sidebar mutations blocked
until config resettles AND every persist re-checks the epoch post-await;
profilePending clears on config settle incl. error; logs re-key on profile.
- Model settings reload on switch and epoch-guard setModelAssignment /
saveMoaModels / API-key activation.
- Config draft resets + cancels its autosave on switch; skill editor/archive and
star-map node dialogs close on switch; openSkillEditor / star-map openEdit
discard stale fetches; tool-usage analytics loads are profile-guarded/keyed.
Correctness + UX:
- Unique per-skill action names for hub install AND uninstall; hub/catalog rows
flip only on a clean exit_code; catalog install polls the background bootstrap
to completion, reconciles the mcp.json draft (no dropped server), and fails
loudly on non-zero exit; MCP catalog query keyed by profile.
- /test reports needs-auth for anonymous auth:oauth servers; /auth snapshots +
restores tokens on a failed re-auth and clears the full 300s callback window.
- config-settings shows a retry on load failure; CodeEditor/JsonDocumentEditor
go read-only while saving so edits typed mid-save aren't dropped.
- Deep-link highlighter deletes its param only after a successful scroll.
- Restored the PageSearchShell trailing slot → Artifacts refresh button/spinner.
- /settings?tab=mcp redirect keeps server=.
Progressive hub search: fan out one query per backend-searchable source
(index-covered API sources stay unsearchable → no ~70-call GitHub re-hammer),
merge/dedupe by trust as each lands, per-source spinner overlaid on the dimmed
chip — results stream in without blocking on the slowest, no layout shift.
test(web): /api/skills list carries usage + provenance (CI contract).
Addresses two non-blocking review notes on the Hermes Console PR:
- console_engine: the four _*_summaries helpers import a subcommand module
and build a throwaway argparse tree purely to extract help summaries. The
dashboard opens a fresh HermesConsoleEngine per /api/console connection, so
every reconnect re-imported + re-parsed the whole CLI surface. The surface
is process-static, so memoize with functools.lru_cache — callers only read
the returned map.
- web_server: console commands run in a worker thread via asyncio.to_thread.
On a 60s timeout asyncio.wait_for cancels the awaitable, but Python threads
aren't preemptible, so a stuck worker keeps running and would leak into the
shared default thread pool. Route console execution through a small
dedicated bounded ThreadPoolExecutor (max_workers=4) so a leaked worker is
capped and concurrent console execution is bounded regardless of reconnects.
Follow-up on top of @shannonsands' NS-574 Hermes Console.
Follow-up to #57507: .ENV / .Env.local on case-insensitive filesystem
mounts slipped past the guard. Lowercase the name before matching and
add a regression test. Addresses egilewski's open review note.
Replace the exact-filename frozenset with _is_sensitive_filename()
that matches .env plus any .env.<suffix> variant. This covers
shorthand suffixes like .env.prod that the previous enumeration
missed.
Add test_sensitive_env_suffix_variants_blocked regression test
covering .env.prod, .env.dev, .env.staging.local, and .env.ci.
Addresses review feedback from egilewski on PR #57507.
The dashboard Files tab could list, read, and download .env files
containing API keys when running with a bind-mounted Hermes home
directory (e.g. docker run -v ~/.hermes:/opt/data).
Add _SENSITIVE_FILENAMES frozenset and filter these from
list_managed_files(), read_managed_file(), and download_managed_file().
Return 403 for direct read/download attempts on sensitive files.

A Cursor-style MCP manager inside Capabilities, plus the backend it needs.
- Server list with brand/favicon avatars + live status dot and a capability
summary (N tools, M prompts, K resources); Servers | Catalog views.
- Catalog: one-click install of Nous-approved servers with required-env prompts.
- GUI OAuth: Authenticate opens the system browser from the TTY-less backend and
verifies a token actually lands; header/API-key servers are never pushed down
OAuth; a dirty mcp.json can't drop a freshly-persisted auth field.
- Full-width mcp.json editor (ecosystem document format) + pinned stdio/agent
LogTail; probes cached 5m and keyed by (profile, config) so revisiting never
respawns the fleet or shows a stale probe.
- Whole-map persistence (PUT /api/mcp/servers) so deletes/toggles actually stick
(the generic /api/config deep-merge could not remove keys).
- perf: MCP probe/auth no longer hold the global skills lock, so a slow stdio
spawn can't stall every other request into a 15s timeout.
- per-tool include/exclude gating (lib/mcp-tool-filter) mirroring the CLI loader.
* feat(desktop): CLI/dashboard parity — skills hub browser, MCP test/toggle/catalog, maintenance ops, log filters
Brings desktop GUI to parity with hermes skills/mcp/doctor/backup/debug-share/
curator/memory CLI commands and the dashboard's System + Skills-hub pages:
- Skills page: new Browse Hub tab (search official/GitHub/community sources,
preview SKILL.md, security scan verdicts, install/update with live action log)
- MCP settings: connection test (tool listing), per-server enable/disable
toggle, and a Catalog tab installing Nous-approved MCP servers with env prompts
- Command Center: new Maintenance section (doctor, security audit, backup,
debug share links, curator status/pause/run, memory file status + reset)
- Command Center system logs: file (agent/errors/gateway/desktop), level, and
substring filters instead of a fixed agent.log tail
- hermes.ts API client + types for all the above; en/zh locale strings (ja and
zh-hant inherit via defineLocale)
* feat(desktop): backend model catalogs in toolset config — hermes tools parity
Completes the `hermes tools` parity gap: after picking an image/video
generation backend the CLI runs a model picker (e.g. FAL's multi-model
catalog with speed/strengths/price); the desktop toolset drawer now has the
same flow as a radio-card list.
- web_server: GET /api/tools/toolsets/{name}/models (catalog + current +
default for the active or named provider row) and PUT .../model
(validated write to image_gen.model / video_gen.model), reusing the CLI's
plugin catalog helpers so GUI and `hermes tools` stay in lockstep
- desktop: ModelCatalogPicker in ToolsetConfigPanel — per-model cards with
speed/strengths/price, in-use + default badges, disabled until the
backend is the active one; provider selection now mirrors is_active
locally so the catalog unlocks without a refetch
- tests: 3 backend endpoint tests (catalog shape invariants, persist +
validation), 2 component tests, 2 API-contract tests; en/zh strings
A single-model Hermes agent never sends temperature; the provider default
applies. MoA hardcoded reference_temperature=0.6 / aggregator_temperature=0.4,
and the coercion float(preset.get(key, 0.6) or 0.6) made unset IMPOSSIBLE to
express: absent, null, empty, and even an explicit 0 all collapsed to the
baked-in default. Every MoA advisor and aggregator therefore ran at 0.6/0.4
while the same model running solo used the provider default — silently
skewing solo-vs-MoA comparisons and overriding provider-tuned defaults.
- moa_config normalization: temperatures coerce to None when absent/blank/
invalid (new _coerce_float_or_none); explicit values incl. 0 honored.
- moa_loop: _preset_temperature() resolves preset values; None flows to
call_llm, which already omits the parameter when None (same contract as
max_tokens). Aggregator still inherits the acting agent's own configured
temperature when the preset doesn't pin one.
- conversation_loop (context-mode MoA): same resolution, no more hardcoded
0.6/0.4 at the call site.
- DEFAULT_CONFIG preset + web_server payload models + docs updated: unset
is the default, pinning stays available.
Desktop/dashboard WebSocket connections drop during long agent operations
(delegate_task subagents, large model outputs) when the uvicorn event loop is
GIL-starved for minutes. Root cause: uvicorn's ws keepalive ping runs on the
SAME event loop as agent turns. A single synchronous GIL-holding call on a
worker thread (a regex/scrub over a large output, or a long subagent turn)
freezes the loop, so it cannot process the incoming pong within ws_ping_timeout
and uvicorn closes an otherwise-healthy connection (#53773: 'event loop stalled
226.3s'; #48445/#50005). Loosening the timeout only raises the threshold — a
multi-minute stall sails past any finite window.
The keepalive ping exists to detect half-open connections (reverse-proxy 524,
dropped tunnels), which cannot happen on loopback: there is no network or proxy
in the path, and a dead local client tears the socket down with a real FIN/RST
that starlette surfaces as WebSocketDisconnect regardless of the ping. So on
loopback the ping provides ~no liveness value while actively killing
recoverable stalls — disable it entirely (ws_ping_interval/timeout=None).
Non-loopback (public) binds sit behind a Cloudflare Tunnel where half-open IS a
real failure mode, so the ping stays at 20/20 to detect it.
Empirically verified (real uvicorn + websockets peer): with ws_ping=None the
server never closes a silent peer during an 8s window; with the pre-fix 2s/2s
window uvicorn closes it. A genuinely-dead client still fires the
WebSocketDisconnect reap path regardless of the ping.
Note: this fixes the local Desktop case (the OP's scenario). A remote Desktop
over an authenticated public dashboard route (McCalebTheSecond's comment) keeps
the ping and needs the deeper GIL-hotspot fix — tracked separately.
Closes#53773
Replace the loopback/PKCE-callback server and manual-paste fallback with
the RFC 8628 device-code flow as the only xAI Grok OAuth login path. The
flow works in headless/SSH/container sessions with no 127.0.0.1 listener,
shrinking the local attack surface.
- Poll the token endpoint with server-provided interval, honoring
slow_down and expires_in; store tokens with auth_mode
oauth_device_code.
- Adaptive proactive refresh skew for short-lived device-code JWTs;
rotated tokens sync back to auth.json, the global root store, and the
credential pool (no refresh-token replay).
- Clear source suppression on successful re-login (CLI + dashboard) and
drop the duplicate dashboard pool entry so exactly one seeded
device_code entry exists.
- Use the shared device_code source name for consistency with the
nous/codex device-code providers.
- Desktop: remove the loopback OAuth flow states and dead type variants;
pkce providers' sign-in URL selection is unchanged.
- Docs (EN + zh-Hans) rewritten for device-code login; drop the deleted
--manual-paste flag from documented commands.
The provider-parity contract (tests/hermes_cli/test_provider_parity.py)
requires every hermes model provider to be configurable in the desktop
Providers tabs. Vertex authenticates via OAuth2 (service-account JSON /
ADC) and has no api_key_env_vars, so — like bedrock's aws_sdk — it needs
its credential env var tagged to the provider card explicitly. Tag
VERTEX_CREDENTIALS_PATH to the vertex card in _catalog_provider_env_metadata().
Follow-up on the salvaged #47491 commits:
- Register _plugin_api_runtime_gate BEFORE the auth middlewares so it
executes AFTER them, and add an explicit auth check: unauthenticated
requests to /api/plugins/<name>/ fall through to auth's 401 instead of
this gate's 404. Prevents the gate from becoming a plugin-name oracle
(an unauthenticated caller could otherwise fingerprint installed/enabled
plugins by status code). Keeps test_non_kanban_plugin_route_requires_auth
green.
- Enable the 'example' user plugin in the _install_example_plugin test
fixture so the auth / static-asset-allowlist tests still reach the real
serving paths now that user plugins are gated on plugins.enabled.
- Mark the runtime-gate unit-test scopes as authenticated so they exercise
the enabled/disabled policy under the new auth-first ordering.
Address two residual bypasses identified in review:
1. Add _plugin_api_runtime_gate middleware that checks plugins.enabled/
plugins.disabled on every request to /api/plugins/{name}/... routes.
Previously, disabling a plugin at runtime had no effect on its already-
mounted API routes until a restart.
2. Extend serve_plugin_asset to check plugins.disabled for bundled plugins.
Previously, only user plugins were gated — a bundled plugin in
plugins.disabled would still serve assets from the unauthenticated
/dashboard-plugins/{name}/... endpoint.
Both fixes ensure the enabled/disabled policy is evaluated live at request
time, not just at startup.
Adds regression tests covering:
- Middleware blocks disabled user plugin API routes (404)
- Middleware blocks user plugin removed from enabled set (404)
- Middleware passes enabled user plugin API routes
- Middleware blocks disabled bundled plugin API routes (404)
- Bundled plugin assets return 404 when disabled
- Bundled plugin assets served normally when not disabled
- User plugin asset gating still works correctly
User-installed dashboard plugins had their assets served and Python
backend code imported without checking the plugins.enabled allowlist.
This meant a plugin installed in the plugins directory but not enabled
could still execute code at dashboard startup and serve arbitrary files.
Changes:
- get_dashboard_plugins API: filter out user plugins not in enabled set
- serve_plugin_asset: reject requests for disabled/non-enabled user plugins
- _mount_plugin_api_routes: skip Python import for non-enabled user plugins
- Bundled plugins still load by default but respect explicit disables
Fixes#46435
`serve` (added in #54568) reused cmd_dashboard wholesale, so it still
behaved like a dashboard: it ran a full vite build every launch, mounted
and served the SPA whenever a stray web_dist/ existed, printed
"Hermes Web UI →", and announced HERMES_DASHBOARD_READY. It's the headless
JSON-RPC/WS backend the desktop app and remote clients run — pure socket
clients that never load the browser SPA.
Mark serve with headless_backend=True (resolved once in cmd_dashboard) and:
- skip _build_web_ui entirely on the serve path
- export HERMES_SERVE_HEADLESS=1 so mount_spa() disables the SPA even when a
dist is present — only the JSON-RPC/WS/API surface is reachable
- announce the bind ("Hermes backend listening on host:port") instead of a
browser/auth-gated URL
- print a neutral HERMES_BACKEND_READY sentinel; dashboard keeps the legacy
one and the desktop port-discovery regex matches either
- preserve serve across the named-profile re-exec so it can't rebuild as
dashboard
`hermes dashboard` is unchanged (builds + serves the browser UI). Backward
compatible: old apps only ever spawn dashboard (legacy token + UI intact)
and never invoke serve; the ready-file side channel is name-agnostic. The
one behavior change is that a remote `hermes serve` no longer serves the
browser dashboard as a side effect — that's `hermes dashboard`'s job.
Tests: serve headless_backend contract, SPA-disabled-with-dist, the
HERMES_BACKEND_READY desktop parse (17/17 node), and the existing
serve/dashboard/web_server suites. AGENTS.md documents the behavior.
Three targeted fixes for Desktop GUI WebSocket stability when agent
turns starve the uvicorn event loop of CPU (GIL contention):
1. Loosen ws_ping_timeout for loopback binds (QW-1)
- Loopback (Desktop): ping 30s interval / 60s timeout
- Non-loopback (Cloudflare Tunnel): unchanged 20/20
- A GIL-heavy agent turn can stall the event loop past 20s;
uvicorn's keepalive ping runs on that same starved loop, so a
20s timeout kills an otherwise-healthy local connection over a
recoverable stall. 60s rides out the stall without affecting
half-open detection on public binds.
2. Coalesce streaming token frames in WSTransport (CF-2)
- Buffer high-frequency delta frames (message.delta, reasoning.delta,
thinking.delta) and flush as a batch every ~33ms (~30fps)
- Non-streaming frames (RPC responses, control/tool/completion events)
flush pending tokens first — wire ordering preserved
- Thread-safe via threading.Lock; worker threads return immediately
instead of blocking on per-token loop wakeups
- Reduces event-loop wakeup churn by orders of magnitude during model
streaming, directly cutting GIL pressure
3. Loop heartbeat watchdog (CF-1)
- Self-rearming call_later tick (2s) measures drift between expected
and actual fire time using loop.time() (monotonic)
- Logs 'event loop stalled Ns (GIL pressure suspected)' when drift >5s
- Turns mysterious WS drops into diagnosable log entries
- Uses call_later chain (not a task) — dies with the loop, nothing
to cancel on shutdown
Root cause: uvicorn's ws keepalive ping (20/20s) runs on the same
starved event loop as agent turns. Under GIL pressure from heavy agent
turns or delegation, the loop can't service the ping within 20s, so
the websockets protocol declares the connection dead. Reconnects fail
with ready_send_failed because the old process's loop is still wedged.
None of these fixes touch the model-facing message array, prompt
caching, message role alternation, or the wire protocol — they are
strictly display-transport improvements plus a config tweak and a
diagnostic log.
Tests: 762 passed, 17 skipped (0 failures) across test_tui_gateway_ws,
test_tui_gateway_server, test_web_server, and tui_gateway/ suites.
Assemble a per-profile graph of memories and learned skills over time
(agent/learning_graph.py) and serve it at GET /api/learning/graph
(hermes_cli/web_server.py), with tests. The radial time axis the desktop
renders is derived from this payload; the REST path stays under /learning
for backend compatibility.
Add a generic suppress_notification flag to the drain-request marker. When a
drain that ends in process exit (e.g. a NAS auto-update image migration on the
always-on Hermes Cloud fleet) is flagged, the gateway skips ONLY the
home-channel 'gateway shutting down' broadcast — the operator-flavoured ping
that would otherwise fire on every routine auto-update, dozens of times a day.
The per-active-session interrupt ping is ALWAYS kept: on a drained shutdown
it's empty by construction, and in the force-interrupt (deadline-exceeded) case
it carries the user-valuable 'your task was cut off, message me to resume' hint.
The gateway stays agnostic about WHY a drain is quiet (generic boolean, not a
kind enum); the policy of which drain causes set the flag lives in the caller
(NAS). Default-false so legacy/operator drains behave exactly as before. The
reader reuses the NS-570 epoch-staleness check so an orphaned marker on the
durable volume can never silence a fresh gateway's legitimate broadcast.
- drain_control.py: write_drain_request gains suppress_notification; new
drain_notification_suppressed() reader (current-epoch + truthy flag).
- web_server.py: /api/gateway/drain reads + echoes the flag.
- run.py: _notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown skips the home-channel loop only.
Tests prove: flag round-trips; home-channel suppressed when set, kept when
unset; active-session ping always fires; stale/legacy/corrupt markers never
suppress.
The Keys page only rendered env vars present in a catalog (OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS
or the provider catalog); any other key a user set in .env was invisible, and
there was no way to add an arbitrary env var from the GUI (e.g. to inject a
var a skill or MCP server needs).
Backend: GET /api/env now also emits a row for every on-disk .env key that
isn't in any catalog, flagged category="custom" + custom=true and
password-masked (an unrecognised key could hold anything, so it's redacted and
reveal-gated like any secret). Channel-managed credentials stay excluded. The
write (PUT /api/env) and reveal (POST /api/env/reveal) paths already handle
arbitrary keys, with the existing env-name guard + denylist (PATH, LD_PRELOAD,
PYTHONPATH, …) enforced server-side — no new write surface.
Frontend: a new "Custom Keys" section lists those custom rows and carries an
add-a-key form (client-side name validation mirroring the backend regex; the
new row reuses the normal edit/save flow, so on save it round-trips back from
the backend as a durable custom row). i18n added for en + zh + types.
Tests: behavior-contract coverage that an unknown .env key surfaces as a
masked custom row and a catalogued key does not — verified to fail on the
pre-fix backend.
The /api/audio/elevenlabs/voices endpoint logged a WARNING on every
failure, and the desktop re-polls it on each settings open/focus — a
bad/expired/scoped ELEVENLABS_API_KEY floods agent/gui logs with
identical "voice list failed: HTTP Error 401" lines indefinitely.
Treat 401/403 as a persistent "integration unavailable" state: return
{available: false, error: "unauthorized"} with a 200 (the dropdown
already handles available:false) instead of a 502, and collapse repeated
identical failures to a single log line via a small re-arming latch
(logs again on recovery or when the error changes). Non-auth errors keep
the 502 but are throttled the same way.
Keep the remote git mirror as a thin facade: route all GETs through gitGet,
all mutations through gitPost, and keep consumers on desktopGit(). On the
backend, route git paths through a single _git_path helper instead of repeating
str(_fs_path(...)) in every endpoint. Behavior unchanged.
After the folder picker fix, an added remote folder was still half-usable:
the desktop's git GUI (coding-rail status, worktree lanes, review pane,
branch switch, file diff) all ran Electron-local git on the USER's machine,
so against a remote-gateway repo they silently degraded to empty.
Mirror the whole surface over the dashboard REST API so it acts on the
BACKEND repo where sessions actually run:
- hermes_cli/web_git.py: git/gh logic (status, worktrees, branches, review
list/diff/stage/unstage/revert/commit/commit-context/push/ship-info/
create-pr, file-diff, worktree add/remove, branch switch) shelling to the
system git, mirroring the Electron ops' shapes.
- web_server.py: /api/git/* routes (same auth gate + _fs_path hardening as
/api/fs, executor-offloaded, mutations -> 400).
- apps/desktop desktop-git.ts: remote-aware facade exposing the same shape as
window.hermesDesktop.git; coding-status / review / projects / model /
desktop-fs route through desktopGit() so local stays Electron, remote hits
/api/git/*.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server_git.py (real repo: status counts,
review classification, diff incl. untracked all-add, stage+commit roundtrip,
worktree/branch lifecycle, commit-context, gh-absent ship-info, auth) and
desktop-git.test.ts (local vs remote routing, envelope unwrap, POST bodies).
The /api/pty handler only closed the PtyBridge in the writer loop's finally.
On child EOF the reader task closes the WebSocket, but if the handler task is
cancelled the instant the socket closes, the writer's finally can be skipped
and the PTY fds leak (#54028) — the FD-leak the regression test guards. Under
dashboard auto-reconnect this stacks orphaned PTYs until fds are exhausted.
Reap the bridge in the reader's EOF finally too (close() is idempotent), so
the PTY is reaped independently of the writer-loop cancellation race. Harden
the regression test to poll for teardown instead of asserting on the same
tick. Was flaky on main (2/20); now 25/25.
* fix(dashboard): close PTY WebSocket on child EOF to stop FD leak
The /api/pty handler's reader task returns on child EOF, but the writer
loop stayed blocked on ws.receive() until the browser sent a disconnect.
When the browser socket is half-open (no FIN delivered — common on
macOS/launchd), that disconnect never arrives, so the handler never
reaches its finally and the PTY master fd + child process leak. With
dashboard auto-reconnect (#52962), every dropped socket then spawns a
fresh PTY on top of the orphaned one, exhausting file descriptors within
hours (EMFILE / Errno 24).
Fix: the reader task now closes the WebSocket in a finally when the child
EOFs or the send side breaks, which unblocks ws.receive() so the existing
finally runs bridge.close(). The writer loop also guards ws.receive()
against the RuntimeError Starlette raises once the socket is closed.

full traceback for every pending connection-lost callback — 50+ identical
WinError 10054 (ConnectionResetError) lines per disconnect on Windows, the
equivalent ConnectionResetError/BrokenPipeError on POSIX. These are not
actionable: they are the expected side effect of the peer hanging up before
our writes drained.
Install a loop exception handler on the gateway serving loop that collapses
exactly this teardown class (ConnectionResetError/ConnectionAbortedError/
BrokenPipeError originating from _call_connection_lost) to a single debug
line, forwarding every other loop error to the existing/default handler
unchanged so genuine loop bugs still surface. Idempotent per loop.
Follow-up to #53791 addressing review feedback: the footgun checker treated
capture_output=/stdout=/stderr=/check_output as proof a subprocess can't pop a
Windows console. That invariant is false — stream redirection controls where a
child's output goes, not whether a console is allocated. From a console-less
parent (Desktop/Electron, pythonw.exe, detached gateway/cron) a console-subsystem
child still flashes a window even when fully captured.
- check-windows-footguns.py: capture/redirect/check_output is no longer a blanket
safe-pass. Added _WINDOWS_FLASHING_PROGRAMS (git/gh/npm/node/python/uv/ffmpeg/
docker/powershell/…); calls to those are flagged even when captured. Non-flashing
programs keep the capture exemption (no 271-site noise). _subprocess_compat.run/
popen calls are inherently safe (wrapper injects CREATE_NO_WINDOW).
- Routed the 35 genuine flashing git/gh/npm/uv/ffmpeg/docker spawns through the
_subprocess_compat.run/popen chokepoint (Brooklyn's wrapper from #53810) — the
durable fix, not per-site annotations. cmd.exe /c start stays # ok (intentional).
- Updated tests + CONTRIBUTING.md rule #17 to the corrected invariant.
* fix(windows): stop terminal-window popups from background spawns
Native-Windows desktop/gateway users saw cmd/conhost windows flash on
gateway restart, image paste, the dashboard Projects tree, voice notes,
and ~5 min after closing the app (detached cron). Two root causes:
- Console-subsystem exes (taskkill, schtasks, wmic, netstat, tasklist,
agent-browser, git, ffmpeg, powershell, git-bash) spawned via raw
subprocess allocate a fresh console when the launching process has
none (pythonw desktop backend / detached gateway) - even with output
captured.
- uv venv pythonw shims re-exec console python.exe, so Python children
get a console regardless of how they're launched.
Fixes:
- Single hidden-spawn primitive (_subprocess_compat.run/.popen) that ORs
CREATE_NO_WINDOW on Windows, no-op on POSIX. Route every Hermes-owned
console-exe spawn through it.
- FreeConsole() catch-all in hermes_bootstrap: any Python child that
exclusively owns an auto-allocated console detaches it at startup
(GetConsoleProcessList()==1 gate leaves shared interactive consoles
untouched).
- Replace PowerShell/wmic gateway PID scans with in-process psutil.
- Skip schtasks queries on non-interactive desktop restarts.
- Prefer native agent-browser .exe over .cmd shims.
- Guard test bans raw subprocess spawns of the Windows-only console
tools repo-wide so the popup class can't regress.
* fix(windows): scope FreeConsole to background entry points; fix merge fallout
Console detach review (per #53810 feedback): GetConsoleProcessList()==1 can't
tell a uv pythonw->python phantom console apart from a user opening the
interactive CLI/TUI in its own fresh console (double-click, shortcut, ConPTY) —
both report a single attached process with a tty. Running FreeConsole() in the
import-time bootstrap therefore risked detaching a legitimately-interactive
terminal.
- Extract FreeConsole into explicit hermes_bootstrap.detach_orphan_console();
remove it from apply_windows_utf8_bootstrap() (import side effect).
- Call it only from known background mains: gateway run, dashboard backend
(start_server, what the desktop spawns), cron standalone, tui_gateway entry,
slash worker. Interactive CLI/TUI never calls it.
- Behavior-contract tests: frees only when solo owner, leaves shared console,
no-op without console / on POSIX, and asserts it's not an import side effect.
Merge fallout from origin/main (#53791):
- local.py: 3-way merge left a dangling **_popen_kwargs (NameError crashing
every terminal init). _subprocess_compat.popen already hides the window, so
drop it.
- discord adapter: merge stacked an undefined windows_hide_flags() onto the
primitive call; drop the redundant arg.
- test_gateway: scan now goes psutil-first (zero spawn); rewrite the
case-variant test to drive that production path.
* test(claw): mock _subprocess_compat.run seam for Windows process scan
claw.py's Windows tasklist/powershell scan routes through the hidden-spawn
primitive; the tests still patched claw_mod.subprocess, so on win32 the mock
was never hit and real spawns returned nothing. Patch the actual seam.
* fix(windows): stop subprocess console-window popups + add CI guard
The single biggest source of Windows 'terminal popup' bug reports was bare
subprocess.run/Popen calls spawning a console window. The compat helpers
(windows_hide_flags / windows_detach_popen_kwargs) already existed but the
footgun checker had no rule to stop new bare calls from reintroducing the flash.
- scripts/check-windows-footguns.py: new AST-based rule flagging subprocess
calls that can create a new console — output-redirection-aware (capture/
redirect/check_output exempt) and POSIX-only-program-aware (launchctl/
systemctl/brew/etc. exempt). Comprehensive on real popups, no annotation
burden on calls that can't flash.
- Swept all genuine window-spawning sites through windows_hide_flags()/
windows_detach_popen_kwargs(); marked intentionally-visible launches
(editor/terminal/foreground re-exec) with '# windows-footgun: ok'.
- tests/scripts/test_windows_footgun_subprocess_rule.py: behavior-contract
tests + full-repo cleanliness invariant.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: documents the rule + the helper pattern.
* test: accept creationflags kwarg in psutil_android fake_subprocess_run
The Windows no-window sweep added creationflags=windows_hide_flags() to
install_psutil_android.py's subprocess.run call; the test's fake stub had a
fixed (cmd) signature and raised TypeError on the new kwarg.
The dashboard Config tab's Model field is a flat string with no provider
info. _denormalize_config_from_web only updated model.default and kept the
stale provider, so picking an OpenRouter model while the default provider was
ollama-local left provider=ollama-local and every call 404'd.
When the model string actually changes, infer the serving provider — curated
catalog first, then a vendor/model-slug heuristic for non-aggregator providers
— and route the switch through the existing _normalize_main_model_assignment /
_apply_main_model_assignment chokepoints so stale base_url/api_mode/api_key are
cleared on a provider change and preserved on a same-provider re-pick. Saving
an unchanged model never re-detects, so unrelated config saves keep an explicit
provider.
Closes#14058
The dashboard form is built from CONFIG_SCHEMA, which doesn't enumerate
every root-level key the YAML supports. Most visibly, `custom_providers`
is in `_KNOWN_ROOT_KEYS` but is absent from the schema — so the frontend
never sends it in the PUT body. The previous full-replace save() then
silently wiped the key from disk every time the user clicked anything
that triggered a save. Other casualties (less visible because defaults
re-mask them on load) include `agent.personalities`,
`agent.reasoning_effort`, `terminal.lifetime_seconds`, etc.
Fix: read the raw on-disk config and deep-merge the incoming PUT body
on top of it before saving. The frontend can only overwrite what it
explicitly sends; everything else is preserved verbatim.
Reuses the existing `_deep_merge` helper from `hermes_cli.config`.
Tests:
- `test_round_trip_preserves_custom_providers` exercises the exact bug:
seed config with custom_providers, GET → drop the key → PUT,
assert it's still on disk.
- `test_round_trip_preserves_schema_invisible_nested_keys` covers the
shallow-vs-deep-merge case for nested dicts under `agent` etc.
Both fail on current main; both pass with this patch.
On the desktop Channels / Messaging page, the "Open setup guide" button was
rendered as a bare <a href={platform.docs_url} target="_blank"> with no guard.
Plugin-provided platforms (Microsoft Teams, Google Chat, Line, Raft, Yuanbao,
…) ship an empty docs_url, so the anchor's href was "".
In a packaged build, Electron resolves an empty href against the current
document — the app's own index.html inside the asar bundle — and
shell.openPath then fails with an OS "file not found" dialog. This is exactly
the Windows error reported for Messaging → Teams → Open guide.
Fix (3 changes):
1. fix(desktop) — Only render the "Open setup guide" button when docs_url is
non-empty, and route clicks through openExternalLink so a relative/empty
value can never be treated as a local bundle path. Fixes the whole class
(every plugin platform), not just Teams.
2. fix(messaging) — Give the Teams platform plugin a real docs_url (Microsoft
Teams setup guide) so its card shows a working button instead of nothing.
3. fix(messaging) — Give the Google Chat platform plugin a real docs_url
(Google Chat setup guide) so its card shows a working button instead of
nothing. Originally from #48940; folded in here because that PR's test
was broken (it queried the HTTP endpoint, but google_chat is a dynamic
enum member that only appears after the adapter module is imported).
Test plan:
- apps/desktop — new src/app/messaging/index.test.tsx: button is hidden when
docs_url is empty; a real URL opens via the validated external opener (does
not navigate).
- apps/desktop typecheck (tsc --noEmit) clean.
- backend — test_teams_messaging_metadata_links_setup_guide: the Teams catalog
entry exposes the setup-guide docs_url.
- backend — test_google_chat_messaging_metadata_links_setup_guide: the Google
Chat catalog entry exposes the setup-guide docs_url.
