* fix(docker): heal pairing-dir ownership after `docker exec` writes (#10270)
The official Docker image runs the gateway as the unprivileged `hermes`
user (uid 10000) via `gosu`, but `docker exec` defaults to root. Approval
files written by `docker exec <container> hermes pairing approve <code>`
end up as `-rw------- root:root`, and the post-gosu gateway process
cannot read them. The approval is silently ignored — the user keeps
hitting 'Unauthorized user' on every message.
The entrypoint's existing top-level chown is gated on the top-level
$HERMES_HOME being mis-owned, so on warm boots (where /opt/data is
already hermes:hermes) the recursive chown is skipped — meaning a
container restart does NOT self-heal the bug either.
Three-part fix:
1. docker/entrypoint.sh: chown the platforms/pairing/ (and legacy
pairing/) subtree on every container start, regardless of the
top-level decision. The directory is tiny (a few JSON files), so
the unconditional chown is effectively free. Container restart
now self-heals.
2. gateway/pairing.py: PairingStore._load_json was swallowing
PermissionError under its bare 'except OSError' branch, which is
what made this a silent failure. Split it out: log a WARNING that
names the file, the gateway's uid, the file's owner/mode, and the
exact docker exec -u hermes workaround. Still falls back to {} so
the gateway stays up.
3. website/docs/user-guide/security.md: add a Docker tip to the
pairing-CLI section pointing users at `docker exec -u hermes …`
up front.
Reproduced end-to-end in a containerized harness — before the fix
the gateway sees 0 approved users after `docker exec` + restart;
after the fix it sees the expected 1, and the file on disk goes
from `root:root 600` back to `hermes:hermes 600` on next start.

* fix(pairing): gate os.geteuid for Windows in PermissionError warning
Remove unused imports (F401) and duplicate/shadowed import
redefinitions (F811) across the codebase using ruff's safe
autofixes. No behavioral changes -- imports only.
- ~1400 safe autofixes applied across 644 files (net -1072 lines)
- __init__.py re-exports preserved (excluded from F401 removal so
public re-export surfaces stay intact)
- Re-exports that are imported or monkeypatched by tests but look
unused in their defining module are kept with explicit # noqa:
F401 (gateway/run.py load_dotenv; run_agent re-exports from
agent.message_sanitization, agent.context_compressor,
agent.retry_utils, agent.prompt_builder, agent.process_bootstrap,
agent.codex_responses_adapter)
- Unsafe F841 (unused-variable) fixes deliberately skipped -- those
can change behavior when the RHS has side effects
- ruff lints remain disabled in pyproject.toml (only PLW1514 is
selected); this is a one-time cleanup, not a config change
Verification:
- python -m compileall: clean
- pytest --collect-only: all 27161 tests collect (zero import errors)
- core entry points import clean (run_agent, model_tools, cli,
toolsets, hermes_state, batch_runner, gateway)
- static scan: every name any test imports directly from an edited
module still resolves
When an existing install upgrades to the hashed-pending schema, its
on-disk pending.json still has the old {code: entry} format with no
hash/salt fields. The original PR #8056 assumed every entry had both
fields and would have KeyErrored in approve_code, list_pending, and
_cleanup_expired.
Guard each consumer:
- approve_code: skip entries that are not a dict, lack salt/hash,
or have a non-hex salt. Legacy entries simply fail to match.
- list_pending: tolerate missing 'hash' (show "legacy" placeholder)
and non-numeric created_at (skip the row).
- _cleanup_expired: treat malformed/legacy entries as expired so
they get pruned on the next call rather than wedging the file.
Regression tests cover all three consumers plus a mixed-malformed
case.
Pairing codes were stored as plaintext keys in JSON files. Now uses
sha256 + random salt hashing with constant-time comparison.
Fixes#8036

PairingStore.approve_code() didn't consult _is_locked_out(), so after
MAX_FAILED_ATTEMPTS bad approvals the lockout flag was set but a valid
code still got accepted — any pending code (legitimately issued or
attacker-obtained) could be approved during the 1-hour lockout window,
nullifying the brute-force protection.
- gateway/pairing.py: lockout check runs in approve_code() right after
_cleanup_expired, before the pending lookup. Returns None on lockout.
- tests/gateway/test_pairing.py: test_lockout_blocks_code_approval pins
the regression — reporter's exact reproducer (generate valid code,
exhaust attempts with WRONGCODE, try to approve valid code) must
return None and leave is_approved == False. Also pins recovery: once
lockout expires, the still-pending code approves normally.
- hermes_cli/pairing.py: _cmd_approve distinguishes the two None cases.
On lockout, prints 'Platform locked out... clears in N minutes. To
reset sooner, delete the _lockout:<platform> entry from
_rate_limits.json' instead of the misleading 'Code not found or
expired' message. 29/29 pairing tests pass; E2E-verified with
reporter's exact Python reproducer.
