When the auxiliary client falls through Nous (e.g. no stored auth, or
runtime credential mint failed), users currently see only `debug`-level
lines, so the next provider in the fallback chain takes over silently.
Promote the no-auth path to a warning that tells operators to run
`hermes auth`, and add a debug breadcrumb on the rarer
mint-failed-but-stored-auth-still-present fallback path so the existing
behavior (use the raw stored token) is preserved while staying
investigable.
Salvaged from #23881 by @0xharryriddle. The contributor's original
patch also short-circuited the second branch with a return, which broke
the pool-entry fallback path covered by
`test_try_nous_uses_pool_entry` — kept the warning intent, dropped the
return so the fallback still works. Dropped the contributor's changes
to `hermes_cli/goals.py` because the goal-pause path is unreachable
when the auxiliary client is None (`judge_goal` returns
`parse_failed=False`, which resets `consecutive_parse_failures`),
so the reason string they added never surfaces in the pause message.
Refs #23876
On macOS with uv-managed cPython 3.11, the default kqueue selector cannot
register fd 0, so prompt_toolkit's loop.add_reader raises
OSError(EINVAL) ("[Errno 22] Invalid argument") from kqueue.control()
and the agent crashes immediately on startup (#5884, also reported in
#6393).
Probe KqueueSelector.register(0, EVENT_READ) before launching
prompt_toolkit. If it fails, install an event-loop policy that returns a
SelectorEventLoop backed by SelectSelector — select() works fine on
stdin in this Python build, so add_reader succeeds and the agent
launches normally.
Also extend the existing #6393 fallback handler to recognize EINVAL /
EBADF / "Invalid argument" so that any future selector failure on stdin
shows the friendly "reinstall Python via pyenv or Homebrew" guidance
instead of an opaque traceback.
Verified on macOS (Darwin 24.6.0) with uv-managed cPython 3.11.15: the
kqueue probe fails, the policy switch fires, and `hermes` launches
cleanly. No effect on platforms where kqueue can register fd 0.
Follow-up to the sandbox-bypass env-var fix:
- Update the opt-out gate so a user-provided AGENT_BROWSER_ARGS is also
respected, not just the legacy AGENT_BROWSER_CHROME_FLAGS. Previously
the gate only checked the broken legacy var, so a user who pre-set
AGENT_BROWSER_ARGS would still get clobbered by Hermes's auto-injection.
- Document AGENT_BROWSER_ARGS in .env.example, the browser feature page,
and the env var reference, with notes about the auto-injection on
AppArmor-restricted systems (Ubuntu 23.10+, DGX Spark, containers).
- Add Anadi Jaggia to AUTHOR_MAP.
AGENT_BROWSER_CHROME_FLAGS is not read by agent-browser CLI.
The correct env var is AGENT_BROWSER_ARGS, with comma-separated values.
This fixes Chrome 'No usable sandbox' crash on Ubuntu 23.10+ systems
where AppArmor restricts unprivileged user namespaces. The detection
logic was correct but the fix used the wrong environment variable name
and space-separated instead of comma-separated args.
The 'sessions' command has been registered in the central command
registry since #20805 (May 2025) and surfaces in /help and tab-completion,
but the classic CLI's process_command() never had an elif branch for it.
The canonical name fell through and printed 'Unknown command: sessions'.
The TUI side was wired up correctly via the SessionPicker overlay; only
the legacy CLI was missing the dispatch.
Adds _handle_sessions_command() which mirrors /resume's no-arg behavior
inline (the CLI has no overlay primitive equivalent to the TUI picker):
- /sessions and /sessions list → print the recent-sessions table
- /sessions <id_or_title> → delegates to _handle_resume_command
Includes regression tests covering the dispatcher wiring (the original
bug) plus the three handler branches.
The call site at line 246 is already wrapped in try/except NotImplementedError
(added in #25969). The checker just doesn't peek at surrounding context.
Mark with the suppression comment so the blocking check passes.
Codex review pointed out that even with the sync-assets fix applied,
_build_web_ui still crashes on a stock Windows console before reaching
npm: Python stdout defaults to cp1252 (or similar) and raises
UnicodeEncodeError when print() hits the arrow/check glyphs used for
status messages (→, ✗, ⚠, ✓). Reproduced locally in PowerShell:
$ PYTHONIOENCODING=cp1252 python -c "from hermes_cli.main import _build_web_ui; _build_web_ui(Path('web'), fatal=True)"
UnicodeEncodeError: 'charmap' codec can't encode character '\u2192' ...
The previous PR body claimed "end-to-end verified on Windows 11", but
that was under the venv's default (utf-8) stdout. A plain `py` or
PowerShell invocation would still fail before sync-assets ever ran.
Fix: inner _say() helper that falls back to
text.encode(sys.stdout.encoding, errors="replace")
when print() raises UnicodeEncodeError. Glyphs degrade to '?' on
ASCII / cp1252 consoles; utf-8 consoles are unaffected. Verified the
full build pipeline runs to completion with PYTHONIOENCODING=cp1252.
Scoped tightly to _build_web_ui (the function this PR already touches);
other call sites in the codebase with the same risk are out of scope.
Three Windows-only bugs in the web-dashboard build path. Each is small,
scoped, and verified end-to-end on Windows 11 — including under a stock
cmd.exe / PowerShell console with its default cp1252 encoding.
1. `sync-assets` shells out to Unix-only commands
web/package.json hard-codes `rm -rf … && cp -r …`. Neither exists on
Windows cmd.exe. `hermes_cli/main.py::_build_web_ui` runs npm via
subprocess (which on Windows defaults to cmd.exe), so the prebuild
hook crashed before Vite ever ran and the dashboard never built.
Fix: web/scripts/sync-assets.mjs — ~20 lines of Node using fs.rmSync
+ fs.cpSync (stdlib, Node >= 16.7). No new deps, identical behavior
on POSIX and Windows.
2. Build failures were silent
_build_web_ui ran both subprocess calls with capture_output=True and
never relayed the captured buffers on failure. Users saw 'Web UI
build failed' and nothing else — no stdout, no stderr, no hint that
the real problem was 'rm is not recognized'.
Fix: inner _relay() helper that decodes and prints stdout + stderr
(utf-8, errors='replace') whenever a step returns non-zero. Replaces
the existing stderr_tail-only relay on the build path; success path
is unchanged. (stderr_tail is preserved for the stale-dist fallback
branch added by #23817.)
Salvaged from #13368 by @johnisag onto current main. Conflict
resolution preserves main's improvements:
- _run_npm_install_deterministic() (replaces bare subprocess.run for
npm install)
- npm-build retry-after-sleep for Windows boot-time races (#23817)
- stale-dist fallback for non-interactive callers (#23817)
Closes#25073, #13368.
Pre-existing diagnostics below an edit point used to surface as 'LSP
diagnostics introduced by this edit' whenever the edit deleted or
inserted lines. The delta-filter key included the diagnostic's
range, so the same logical error reported at a different line in
the post-edit snapshot looked like a brand new diagnostic.
Concrete case: deleting 14 lines in cli.py caused Pyright errors at
lines 9873, 10590, 12413, 13004 (unrelated to the edit) to be
reported as introduced by it.
Fix: build a piecewise-linear line-shift map (via difflib's
SequenceMatcher) from pre and post content, and remap baseline
diagnostics into post-edit coordinates before the set-difference.
Diagnostics in deleted regions drop out cleanly; diagnostics below
the edit shift by the right amount; diagnostics above are untouched.
The strict (range-aware) equality key stays — so a genuinely new
instance of an identical error class at a different line still
surfaces as new.
Pieces:
- agent/lsp/range_shift.py — build_line_shift, shift_diagnostic_range,
shift_baseline. Pure functions, no LSP state.
- agent/lsp/manager.py — LSPService.get_diagnostics_sync gains an
optional line_shift kwarg; baseline is shift_baseline'd before
computing the seen-set. _diag_key keeps the strict range key.
- tools/file_operations.py — write_file captures pre_content for any
LSP-handled extension (not just LINTERS_INPROC) and passes pre/post
to _maybe_lsp_diagnostics, which builds the shift map.
- New _lsp_handles_extension helper guards the pre_content read.
Trade-offs preserved:
- Genuinely new same-class errors at different lines still surface
(content-only key would have swallowed them).
- Pre-existing errors at unshifted positions still get filtered
(covered by the strict-key path with no shift).
- Best-effort: when pre_content can't be captured (file didn't
exist, permissions), the unshifted comparison still catches
most pre-existing errors; the edge case it misses is a new file
with a non-empty baseline, which is structurally impossible.
The prebuild step used `rm -rf` and `cp -r`, which fail on Windows
(`'rm' is not recognized`). Replace with an inline Node one-liner
using fs.rmSync / fs.cpSync so the build works on Windows, macOS,
and Linux without adding a dependency.
Follow-up to snav's PR #25463 contribution: flip default to on, broaden
scope so backfill fires whenever require_mention gates the bot (not just
shared-session channels).
Why:
- The mention-gate creates a session-transcript gap regardless of whether
the channel is shared or per-user. In per-user sessions, Alice's session
is still missing other participants' messages and her own pre-mention
messages — backfill fills both gaps.
- Threads naturally scope to thread-only history because discord.py's
channel.history() on a thread returns only that thread's messages.
- DMs still skip — every DM triggers the bot, so the session transcript
is already complete.
Changes:
- hermes_cli/config.py: discord.history_backfill default → true
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: drop the _is_shared gate, keep _is_dm
skip and _needed_mention gate; env var DISCORD_HISTORY_BACKFILL
default → 'true'
- cli-config.yaml.example + website docs: update defaults and prose;
add the DISCORD_HISTORY_BACKFILL / _LIMIT env var rows that were
documented in the PR description but missing from the env-var table
- tests/gateway/test_discord_free_response.py:
- flip test_discord_per_user_channel_does_not_backfill →
test_discord_per_user_channel_backfills_too (new behavior)
- add test_discord_dm_does_not_backfill (DM skip is invariant)
- give FakeThread a no-op history() so existing thread tests don't hit
a fake discord.Forbidden when backfill now fires on threads too
Tests: 160/160 in target files; 400/400 across all tests/gateway/ -k discord.
Adds optional channel-context backfill for Discord shared-channel sessions
so the agent can see recent messages it missed between its own turns
(typically when require_mention=true filters out most traffic).
Previously the agent only saw the @mention message that triggered it, which
led to disorienting replies in active multi-user channels where the
conversation context was invisible. With backfill enabled, a configurable
number of recent messages are fetched per-turn and prepended to the trigger
message as a context block, kept separate from sender-prefix logic so
attribution remains clean.
This re-opens the work from #13063 (approved by @OutThisLife on 2026-04-20,
closed when I closed the branch to address the simpolism:main head-branch
issue plus an ordering bug I caught later in live use). Filing against the
freshly-rewritten problem statement in #13054 so the design is grounded in
the failure mode rather than the implementation shape.
The implementation follows the **push-mode last-self-anchored** design from
the two options laid out in #13054. See the issue for the trade-off
discussion vs pull-mode (#13120 was an earlier closed PR using that shape).
Treating this as a reference implementation — happy to rewrite as
last-trigger anchoring or as a hybrid with #13120 if maintainers prefer.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/discord.py:
- new `_discord_history_backfill()` / `_discord_history_backfill_limit()`
helpers (config.extra > env > default), mirroring the existing
`_discord_require_mention()` shape
- new `_fetch_channel_context()` that scans `channel.history()` backwards
from the trigger to the bot's last message (or limit), formats as
`[Recent channel messages] / [name] msg / ...`, respects DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS,
skips system messages
- per-channel `_last_self_message_id` cache to narrow the fetch window
on hot paths (avoids full history scan when the bot has spoken recently)
- **IMPORTANT**: passes `oldest_first=False` explicitly to `channel.history()`.
discord.py 2.x silently flips the default to True when `after=` is supplied,
which would select the EARLIEST N messages after our last response instead
of the LATEST N before the trigger. In high-traffic windows this would
return stale tool traces and drop the actual final answer the user is
asking about. See regression test below. Caught in live use during a
Codex tool-trace burst on May 13 2026.
- gateway/config.py: discord_history_backfill + discord_history_backfill_limit
settings + yaml→env bridge
- gateway/platforms/base.py: channel_context field on MessageEvent
- gateway/run.py: prepend channel_context after sender-prefix so the
[sender name] tag applies to the trigger message alone, not to the backfill
- hermes_cli/config.py: defaults for new discord.history_backfill and
discord.history_backfill_limit keys
- cli-config.yaml.example: documented defaults
- tests/gateway/test_discord_free_response.py: 7 new tests covering
cold-start backfill, self-message stop boundary, other-bot filtering,
cache hot-path narrowing, stale-cache fallback, shared-channel +
per-user backfill paths, and the ordering regression test
(`test_fetch_channel_context_cache_uses_latest_window_when_after_set`)
- tests/gateway/test_config.py: yaml→env bridge tests
- tests/gateway/test_session.py: prefix-order edge cases
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/discord.md: env vars + config keys +
usage docs
Tested on Ubuntu 24.04 — empirically validated in my own multi-bot Discord
research server for the past three weeks.

Supersedes #13063 (closed)
Adds 'hermes proxy start' — a local HTTP server that lets external apps
(OpenViking, Karakeep, Open WebUI, ...) use a Hermes-managed provider
subscription as their LLM endpoint. The proxy attaches the user's real
OAuth-resolved credentials to each forwarded request, refreshing them
automatically; the client can send any bearer (it gets stripped).
Ships with one adapter — Nous Portal. The UpstreamAdapter ABC and
registry in hermes_cli/proxy/adapters/ are designed for additional
OAuth providers to plug in by name without server changes.
Commands:
hermes proxy start [--provider nous] [--host 127.0.0.1] [--port 8645]
hermes proxy status
hermes proxy providers
Allowed Portal paths: /v1/chat/completions, /v1/completions,
/v1/embeddings, /v1/models. Anything else returns 404 with a clear
error pointing at the allowed list.
aiohttp is gated like gateway/platforms/api_server.py (try-import,
clean runtime error if missing). No new core dependency.
Tests: 24 unit tests + 1 separate E2E that spawns the real subprocess
and verifies the upstream receives the right bearer with the client's
header stripped.
- Treat same-dimension resize events in alt-screen mode as a repaint
signal, because terminal hosts can reflow or restore the physical
buffer without changing columns/rows.
- Ensure pending resize erases are emitted even when the virtual diff
is empty, so stale physical glyphs are still cleared.
- Extract alt-screen resize repaint into prepareAltScreenResizeRepaint()
for readability.
- Add defensive clearTimeout in prepareAltScreenResizeRepaint so rapid
resize bursts don't stack redundant delayed repaints.
- Add a focused regression test for same-dimension alt-screen resize
healing.
Addresses #18449
Related to #17961
When the terminal shrinks, already-printed box-drawing rules (response,
reasoning, streaming TTS, background-task Panels) reflow into multiple
narrower rows — visible as duplicated horizontal separators / ghost
lines in scrollback. Similarly, prompt_toolkit redraws a fresh status
bar on SIGWINCH on top of one the terminal just reflowed, producing
double-bar artifacts on column shrink.
Two surgical changes:
1. Decorative scrollback boxes now use a new
`HermesCLI._scrollback_box_width()` helper that clamps to
`max(32, min(width, 56))`. The live TUI footer is unaffected and still
uses the full width. Covers: streaming response box (open + close),
reasoning box (open + close, both streaming and post-stream paths),
streaming-TTS box close, final-response Rich Panel, and the
background-task Rich Panel.
2. `_recover_after_resize()` now also sets a new
`_status_bar_suppressed_after_resize` flag so the dynamic status bar
and both input separator rules stay hidden until the next user input.
The flag is cleared in the process loop the moment the user submits
their next prompt, restoring chrome cleanly.
Tests:
- New `test_input_rules_hide_after_resize_until_next_input` covers the
flag's effect on rule heights.
- New `test_scrollback_box_width_caps_to_resize_safe_value` covers the
helper at floor / cap / mid-range / overflow.
- Existing resize-recovery test extended to assert the flag flips.

The spinner already shows tool activity visually; the 1.2 kHz tone on
every tool.started event was unwanted noise (especially on WSL2, where
each beep also triggers Windows Terminal's bell notification).
Removed the play_beep call in _on_tool_progress entirely. Record
start/stop beeps (gated by voice.beep_enabled) are unaffected.
When codex app-server fails outside the OAuth-classified path
(non-auth turn/start errors, plain TimeoutErrors, generic turn-ended
status, subprocess silently exits, hard deadline timeout), the user
got a bare 'Internal error' / 'turn/start failed: ...' with no
context. Diagnosing config/provider/auth-bridge issues forced a
re-run with verbose codex flags.
Add a _format_error_with_stderr helper that appends the last few
stderr lines via agent.redact.redact_sensitive_text(force=True),
and use it at every catch-all error site:
- ensure_started() failures (codex init / thread/start) now return
a TurnResult.error with should_retire=True instead of bubbling
- non-OAuth turn/start CodexAppServerError / TimeoutError
- subprocess-died branch (previously dumped raw stderr_blob[-300:]
with no redaction — a leak risk)
- turn ended with non-completed status
- hard turn-timeout deadline
OAuth-classified failures and the post-tool quiet watchdog already
produce clean hints and stay unchanged. The redactor catches sk-*,
gh*_*, Authorization: Bearer, query-string tokens, JWTs, private
keys, etc., so provider error payloads can't leak into chat output
or trajectories.
Inspired by openclaw#80718, adapted for our app-server transport.
When the stream consumer's got_done handler successfully delivers the
final response content via _send_or_edit but the subsequent edit
(e.g. cursor removal) fails, final_response_sent remains False even
though the user has already received the final answer. The gateway's
fallback send path then re-delivers the same content, causing the
user to see the response twice on Telegram.
Introduce a new _final_content_delivered flag on the stream consumer,
set by the got_done handler when the final content has reached the
user. The _run_agent suppression logic now treats this flag as an
additional signal (alongside final_response_sent and
response_previewed) that final delivery is already complete.
This preserves the existing behavior for intermediate-text-only
streams (where already_sent=True but no final content has been
delivered) — those still receive the gateway's fallback send, matching
the test expectation in test_partial_stream_output_does_not_set_already_sent.
Adds TestFinalContentDeliveredSuppression with two cases covering
both the suppression (content delivered + edit failed) and the
non-suppression (intermediate text only) branches.
`hermes config set gateway.streaming.*` writes the streaming block
nested under a `gateway:` key in config.yaml, but the config loader
only checked for a top-level `streaming:` key — silently ignoring
the nested variant.
Fall back to `yaml_cfg['gateway']['streaming']` when the top-level
key is absent, matching the pattern already used for other nested
config sections.
Closes#25676
When the final streamed text is identical to the last plain-text edit,
stream_consumer._send_or_edit short-circuits and never calls
adapter.edit_message(finalize=True). For Telegram, this skips the
plain-text → MarkdownV2 conversion, leaving raw Markdown syntax visible
to the user.
Set REQUIRES_EDIT_FINALIZE = True on TelegramAdapter so the finalize
edit is always delivered, matching the existing DingTalk pattern.
Fixes#25710
WhatsApp pseudo-chats (Status updates / Stories, Channels / Newsletters,
broadcast lists) were being routed through the full agent pipeline. A
user's gateway.log showed the agent replying to a contact's Story
('status@broadcast') with 345 chars plus title-generation cost, which
also shows up in the contact's status feed.
Drop these JIDs at _should_process_message() before the policy gate so
they're filtered regardless of dm_policy or allowlist state. Covers:
- status@broadcast (Stories)
- *@newsletter (Channels)
- *@broadcast (broadcast lists, future-proofing)
The bridge.js already filters these on the fromMe outbound path, but
inbound events on self-chat mode skipped that check.
Tests:
- status@broadcast dropped on open policy
- broadcast filter wins over allowlisted senders
- real DMs still pass through
- helper unit cases (case-insensitive, whitespace-tolerant)
26/26 tests/gateway/test_whatsapp_group_gating.py pass; 59/59 adjacent
WhatsApp test suites pass.

The Debian/Ubuntu branch of install_node_deps() ran 'npx playwright install
--with-deps chromium' unconditionally. Playwright invokes sudo interactively
to apt-install Chromium's system libraries, which blocks the installer for
non-sudo users (systemd service accounts, unprivileged operator users) on
an unsatisfiable password prompt.
Changes:
- install.sh: gate --with-deps behind a sudo capability check on the apt
branch (matches the existing Arch/pacman branch pattern). Non-sudo users
fall back to 'npx playwright install chromium' alone and the installer
prints the exact 'sudo npx playwright install-deps chromium' command an
administrator can run separately.
- install.sh: add --skip-browser (alias --no-playwright) to skip the
Playwright step entirely for headless installs that don't need browser
automation. Mirrors the existing --no-venv / --skip-setup shape.
- installation.md: add a 'Non-Sudo / System Service User Installs' section
covering the admin/service-user split, the --skip-browser flag, and the
~/.local/bin PATH gotcha (the root cause of the 'No module named dotenv'
error users hit when running the repo source 'hermes' script with system
Python instead of the venv launcher).
- test_install_sh_browser_install.py: regression coverage for the
--skip-browser flag and the sudo-gate on the apt branch.

Pyproject's [all] extra was slimmed down in May 2026 — ~20 optional
backends moved to tools/lazy_deps.py and only install on first use.
hermes update runs uv pip install -e .[all] which doesn't touch any of
them, so pin bumps in LAZY_DEPS (CVE response, transitive fixes) were
silently ignored on already-activated backends.
Two changes:
1. _is_satisfied() now parses the spec and checks the installed version
against the constraint via packaging.specifiers. Previously it
returned True the moment the package name was importable, which made
ensure() a name-presence gate rather than a version-pin gate.
2. New active_features() / refresh_active_features() pair: lists every
feature with at least one of its packages currently installed, then
re-runs ensure() on each. Refresh is invoked at the end of
_cmd_update_impl, right after the [all] install completes. Cold
backends (never activated) stay quiet — no churn for them.
Output during update is one summary block:
→ Refreshing 4 active lazy backend(s)...
↑ 1 refreshed: provider.anthropic
✓ 3 already current
or
⚠ memory.honcho failed to refresh: <pip stderr>
Failures never raise out of update — backends keep their previously-
installed version and we tell the user to rerun once upstream is fixed.
security.allow_lazy_installs=false is honored: features get marked
"skipped" with the reason shown.
Tests: 18 new unit tests covering version-aware satisfaction (exact pin,
range, extras blocks, missing package, malformed spec), active feature
discovery, and refresh status reporting. All 61 lazy_deps tests pass.
Adds regression tests pinning web search into the WhatsApp and api-server
default platform-coverage toolsets. Pure test additions, no runtime change.
Salvage of the test-addition commit from #25692 by @wesleysimplicio.
(The AUTHOR_MAP fixup commit from the same PR landed separately as
529ec85c7.)
The _foreground_background_guidance() function matched background-wrapper
keywords (nohup/disown/setsid) anywhere in the command text, including
inside quoted strings, Python -c code, commit messages, and PR body text.
Two-layer fix:
1. Strip single-quoted, double-quoted, and backtick-quoted content before
pattern matching via _strip_quotes() helper.
2. Tighten the regex to only match keywords at command-start positions
(after ^, ;, &, &&, ||, or $() — not mid-argument.
Both layers are needed: quote stripping handles the common case of keywords
in string literals, and the position-aware regex handles unquoted cases
like 'export FOO=setsid' (word boundary match, wrong position).
Fixes#20064
When the gateway spawned a background agent (e.g. for delegation), media
URLs and types from the originating message weren't forwarded — the bg
agent saw the prompt but no attached images. Vision-enabled tasks
effectively lost their inputs.
Forwards media_urls/media_types through the bg-task spawn path and
runs the same vision-enrichment step the main flow uses, so the bg
agent gets image descriptions inlined into its prompt.
Closes#25614.
Salvage of #25603 by @oxngon (manually re-applied — original branch
was severely stale against current main).
Set file mode 0600 on ~/.hermes/.env after creation in the installer and
after every write via memory_setup._write_env_vars(). This ensures only
the file owner can read/write API keys and tokens, matching standard
practice for credential files (.netrc, .aws/credentials, .ssh/config).
Fixes#25477
On WSL2 (and similar environments), time.time() is not strictly monotonic
due to NTP sync or host clock adjustments. When clock regression occurs
during a multi-tool flush, later-inserted rows get earlier timestamps,
causing ORDER BY timestamp, id to sort them before rows that were written
first. This breaks the tool_calls/tool_response adjacency invariant and
triggers HTTP 400 from the API.
Use ORDER BY id instead, since id (INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT)
always reflects true insertion order regardless of system clock behavior.
