Pass skip_memory=True to the AIAgent constructor used by
_spawn_background_review() so the review fork's __init__ no longer
rebuilds a _memory_manager wired to honcho / mem0 / supermemory /
etc. under the parent's session_id.
Before this change, the review fork ingested its harness prompt
(the 'Review the conversation above and update the skill library...'
text) into the user's real memory namespace via three sites in
run_conversation():
- on_turn_start(turn_count, prompt) cadence + turn-message
- prefetch_all(prompt) recall query
- sync_all(prompt, review_output, ...) harness + review output
recorded as a
(user, assistant) pair
Built-in MEMORY.md / USER.md state is still rebound from the parent
right after construction, so memory(action='add') writes from the
review continue to land on disk; only the external-plugin side
effects are removed.
Reported by @Utku.
The same root cause as the auxiliary compression fix (commit 7becb19):
get_model_context_length() is called without custom_providers, so per-model
context_length overrides are silently skipped. The fallback activation path
(_try_activate_fallback) had the same missing parameter.
When the agent switches to a fallback provider, the fallback model would use
the models.dev value (e.g. 204800 for NVIDIA NIM minimax-m2.7) instead of
the user-configured one in custom_providers (e.g. 196608) — a subtle
discrepancy that could cause the fallback model to run with an incorrect
context window, leading to truncated messages or failed API requests when
the model does not support the detected length.
Fix: pass self._custom_providers to get_model_context_length() so the
fallback path sees the same per-model overrides as the main model path.
The Discord adapter silently dropped any attachment whose extension wasn't
in the SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES allowlist (PDF, text family, zip, office).
Users uploading .wav / .bin / other unrecognized formats saw nothing in
their conversation — the file got logged as 'Unsupported document type'
and discarded before the agent ever saw it.
Add discord.allow_any_attachment (default false) to bypass the allowlist.
When on:
- Any file is downloaded, cached under ~/.hermes/cache/documents/, and
surfaced as a DOCUMENT-typed event with application/octet-stream MIME
- gateway/run.py already emits a context note with the cached path,
auto-translated via to_agent_visible_cache_path() for Docker/Modal
sandboxed terminals
- File body is NOT inlined — only the path — so binary uploads don't
blow up the context window
- Allowlisted text formats (.txt/.md/.log) keep their 100 KiB inline
behavior unchanged
Also adds discord.max_attachment_bytes (default 32 MiB matches the
historical hardcoded cap; 0 = unlimited) since users opting into arbitrary
types may want to raise the cap. The whole attachment is held in memory
while being cached, so unlimited carries a real memory cost.
Env overrides: DISCORD_ALLOW_ANY_ATTACHMENT, DISCORD_MAX_ATTACHMENT_BYTES.
Discord-only by deliberate scope. Telegram has hard 20 MB API limits and
Slack has its own caps — extending the same flag there is a separate
follow-up if/when requested.
After context compression, the protected tail messages retain their
original image parts. When those include multi-MB pasted screenshots,
every subsequent API request re-ships the same base-64 blobs forever —
which can push the request past provider body-size limits and wedge the
session even though compression 'succeeded'.
Add _strip_historical_media() to agent/context_compressor.py. After the
summary is built, find the newest user message that carries an image
part and replace image parts in every earlier message with a short
text placeholder ('[Attached image — stripped after compression]').
The newest image-bearing user turn keeps its media so the model can
still analyse what the user just sent.
Handles all three multimodal shapes:
- OpenAI chat.completions image_url
- OpenAI Responses API input_image
- Anthropic native {type: image, source: ...}
Includes 27 unit tests covering the helpers and the end-to-end
compress() integration, plus a manual E2E check confirming a ~4MB
two-image conversation shrinks to ~2MB after compression.
Add a TestDiscoverAllPlugins class covering the six cases the recursive
scan needs to handle:
- flat plugin uses its manifest ``name:`` as the key
- category-namespaced plugin keys off ``<category>/<dirname>`` even when
the manifest ``name:`` is bare (regression test for the original bug —
``plugins/observability/langfuse/`` with ``name: langfuse`` must
surface as ``observability/langfuse``, not ``langfuse``)
- user-installed plugin overrides bundled on key collision
- depth cap: anything below ``<root>/<category>/<plugin>/`` is ignored
- bundled ``memory/`` and ``context_engine/`` are skipped (they have
their own loaders), but user plugins under those category names are
still scanned
Also add an in-source comment next to the key derivation pointing at the
loader's matching line (``PluginManager._parse_manifest`` in
plugins.py:1027-1028), so future renames of one site flag the other.
Both items raised in Copilot review on #27161.

The `if key in seen and source == "bundled": continue` check was
unreachable: bundled is scanned before user, so `key in seen` can never
be true while `source == "bundled"`. The "user overrides bundled"
semantics are preserved automatically by the unconditional
`seen[key] = …` on the user pass.
Replaces the dead guard with a one-line comment explaining the
overwrite semantics, so a future contributor adding a third source
(e.g. project plugins) can see at a glance how ordering interacts with
the dict-overwrite. Matches `PluginManager.discover_and_load`'s
"user wins" rule.

The langfuse plugin is hooks-only (no toolsets), so it never appears in
`hermes tools` — that menu iterates `_get_effective_configurable_toolsets()`
(= `CONFIGURABLE_TOOLSETS` + plugin-registered toolsets), and "langfuse"
is in neither. The `TOOL_CATEGORIES["langfuse"]` setup wizard (with its
`post_setup: "langfuse"` hook that pip-installs the SDK and writes
`plugins.enabled`) was reachable only when a toolset key "langfuse" got
enabled, which can't happen — so it's been dead code, and the docs that
promised "Setup (interactive): hermes tools → Langfuse Observability"
were silently broken.
Right home for that wizard is `hermes plugins` (e.g. auto-running a
plugin's post-setup hook on enable), which is a generic plugin-setup
mechanism worth designing properly rather than shoehorning langfuse
back into `hermes tools`. Until that exists, point users at the
working manual flow.
Code:
- Delete `TOOL_CATEGORIES["langfuse"]` (24 lines) — unreachable.
- Delete the `post_setup_key == "langfuse"` branch in `_run_post_setup`
(29 lines) — only caller was the deleted TOOL_CATEGORIES entry.
Docs / comments (point at the manual flow + interactive `hermes plugins`):
- `plugins/observability/langfuse/README.md`: collapse the two-option
setup section to the single working flow.
- `plugins/observability/langfuse/plugin.yaml`: update `description`.
- `plugins/observability/langfuse/__init__.py`: update module docstring.
- `hermes_cli/config.py`: update inline comment above the LANGFUSE_*
env-var allow-list.
- `website/docs/user-guide/features/built-in-plugins.md`: collapse
"Setup (interactive)" + "Setup (manual)" into one accurate block.
- `website/docs/reference/environment-variables.md`: update the
cross-reference in the Langfuse env-vars section.

`_discover_all_plugins()` in plugins_cmd.py did a flat scan of the
bundled and user plugin directories — only direct children with a
plugin.yaml were surfaced. Category directories like `observability/`,
`image_gen/`, `platforms/`, `model-providers/`, `web/`, and `video_gen/`
have no plugin.yaml of their own, so their nested plugins
(`observability/langfuse`, `image_gen/openai`, etc.) never appeared in
`hermes plugins list` or the interactive `hermes plugins` UI — even
though the runtime loader (`PluginManager._scan_directory_level`)
discovers them correctly and they do load at runtime.
This broke the documented promise that bundled plugins appear in
`hermes plugins list` and the interactive UI before being enabled,
and made it look like `observability/langfuse` didn't exist.
Refactor `_discover_all_plugins()` to mirror the loader's recursion
(depth cap = 2, same skip set, user overrides bundled on key collision).
Return the path-derived registry key (e.g. `observability/langfuse`) as
the displayed name, matching what the user passes to
`hermes plugins enable …` / writes under `plugins.enabled` in
config.yaml.
Also clarify the plugins docs: spell out that sub-category plugins
surface by their `<category>/<plugin>` key in `hermes plugins list` /
interactive UI, add an `observability/langfuse` example to the command
reference, and include a nested entry in the interactive-UI mock.

Introduces a thin CLI wrapper around the existing send_message_tool so
shell scripts, cron scripts, CI hooks, and monitoring daemons can reuse
the gateway's already-configured platform credentials without
reimplementing each platform's REST client.
hermes send --to telegram "deploy finished"
echo "RAM 92%" | hermes send --to telegram:-1001234567890
hermes send --to discord:#ops --file report.md
hermes send --to slack:#eng --subject "[CI]" --file build.log
hermes send --list # all targets
hermes send --list telegram # filter by platform
Supports all platforms the send_message tool already does (Telegram,
Discord, Slack, Signal, SMS, WhatsApp, Matrix, Feishu, DingTalk, WeCom,
Weixin, Email, etc.), including threaded targets and #channel-name
resolution via the channel directory.
hermes_cli/send_cmd.py delegates to tools.send_message_tool.send_message_tool,
which means there is zero new platform-specific code. The subcommand just:
1. Bridges ~/.hermes/.env and top-level ~/.hermes/config.yaml scalars into
os.environ (same bootstrap the gateway does at startup) — required so
TELEGRAM_HOME_CHANNEL and friends are visible to load_gateway_config().
2. Resolves the message body from positional arg, --file, or piped stdin.
3. Calls the shared tool and translates its JSON result to exit codes:
0 success, 1 delivery failure, 2 usage error.
No running gateway is required for bot-token platforms (Telegram, Discord,
Slack, Signal, SMS, WhatsApp) — the tool hits each platform's REST API
directly. Plugin platforms that rely on a live adapter connection still
need the gateway running; the error message is forwarded verbatim.
- New guide: website/docs/guides/pipe-script-output.md covering real-world
patterns (memory watchdogs, CI hooks, cron pipes, long-running task
completion pings) and the security/gateway notes.
- Cross-links added from automate-with-cron.md ("no LLM? use hermes send")
and developer-guide/gateway-internals.md (delivery-path section).
tests/hermes_cli/test_send_cmd.py (20 tests, all green):
- Happy paths: positional message, stdin, --file, --file -, --subject,
--json, --quiet.
- Error paths: missing --to, missing body, file not found, tool returns
error payload (exit 1), tool skipped-send result (exit 0).
- --list: human output, --json output, platform filter, unknown platform.
- Env loader: bridges config.yaml scalars into env, does not override
existing env vars, gracefully handles missing files.
- Registrar contract: register_send_subparser() returns a working parser.
Smoke-tested end-to-end against a live Telegram bot before commit.
In long-lived interactive sessions, _try_activate_fallback() advances
_fallback_index before attempting client resolution. When resolution
fails (provider not configured, etc.) the function returns False without
ever setting _fallback_activated=True. _restore_primary_runtime() then
skips its reset block entirely (guarded by `if not _fallback_activated`),
leaving _fallback_index >= len(_fallback_chain) for all subsequent turns.
The eager-fallback guard at the top of the retry loop checks
`_fallback_index < len(_fallback_chain)`, so the condition fails silently
and no fallback is ever attempted again for that session.
Cron jobs spawn a fresh AIAgent per run and never hit this path, which is
why the same fallback chain works reliably for cron but not interactive.
Fix: reset _fallback_index=0 in the `not _fallback_activated` early-return
branch so every new turn starts with the full chain available.
Fixes#20465
xAI's Responses stream emits 'type=error' as the FIRST SSE frame when an
OAuth account is unsubscribed/exhausted or rejects the encrypted-reasoning
replay introduced in the May 2026 SuperGrok rollout. The SDK helper
raises RuntimeError(Expected to have received response.created before
error), which the caller correctly routes to
_run_codex_create_stream_fallback. The fallback then opens a new stream
that emits the same 'error' frame — but the fallback loop only handled
{response.completed, response.incomplete, response.failed} and silently
continue'd past 'error' events. Result: the loop fell off the end of
the stream and raised the useless 'fallback did not emit a terminal
response' RuntimeError, which the classifier marked retryable=True and
looped 3x before failing with no clue what went wrong.
Now: 'error' frames raise a synthesized _StreamErrorEvent with an OpenAI
SDK-shaped .body so _summarize_api_error, _extract_api_error_context,
_is_entitlement_failure, and classify_api_error all see the real
provider message. Users on unsubscribed accounts now see 'do not have
an active Grok subscription' once, not three RuntimeErrors.
Verified end-to-end: classifier returns reason=auth retryable=False;
entitlement detector matches even with status_code=None; summarizer
returns the full xAI message.
Tests: 4 new in TestCodexFallbackErrorEvent covering xAI subscription
message, dict-shaped events, summarizer integration, and the empty-stream
case (must still raise the original RuntimeError so 'truncated mid-flight'
stays distinguishable from 'provider rejected the call').
Adds a pure-local recap of recent session activity — turn counts,
tools used, files touched, last user ask, last assistant reply —
appended to the existing /status output. Useful when juggling multiple
sessions and you want a one-glance reminder of where this one left off.
Inspired by Claude Code 2.1.114's /recap, but folded into /status so
we don't add a 6th info command. Pure local computation: no LLM call,
no auxiliary model, no prompt-cache invalidation, instant and free.
Salvage of #18587 — kept the shared hermes_cli.session_recap.build_recap
helper and its 13 unit tests, dropped the /recap slash command +
ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS entry + Level-2 bypass since /status
already covers both surfaces.
Tailored to hermes-agent's tool vocabulary: file-editing tools
(patch, write_file, read_file, skill_manage, skill_view) surface
touched paths; tool-call counts highlight which classes of work
drove the session.

Surface live background-task count in the prompt_toolkit status bar so users
can see at a glance that a /background task exists and is running — no need
to ask the agent about it (the agent has no visibility into bg sessions by
design).
- _get_status_bar_snapshot now reports active_background_tasks from len()
of the live _background_tasks dict (entries are removed in the task
thread's finally block, so this reflects truly-running tasks)
- Indicator shown only on medium (<76) and wide (>=76) tiers; narrow (<52)
stays minimal since it's already cramped
- No invalidate plumbing needed: status bar fragments are pulled via lambda
on every redraw, and the bg thread already calls _app.invalidate() on exit
Refs #8568
xAI announced on 2026-05-16 (https://x.ai/news/grok-hermes) that X Premium
subscriptions now work in Hermes Agent. The hint we shipped in PR #26644
asserted the opposite ("X Premium+ does NOT include xAI API access — only
standalone SuperGrok subscribers can use this provider"), which would now
misdirect Premium+ users who hit any other 403 (no Grok sub at all, wrong
tier, exhausted quota) into thinking they need to switch subscriptions
when their sub is in fact valid.
Remove _decorate_xai_entitlement_error and its two call sites in
_summarize_api_error. xAI's own body text already says "Manage subscriptions
at https://grok.com/?_s=usage" — surface that verbatim and let xAI's wording
do the diagnosis.
The _is_entitlement_failure guard (which prevents credential-pool refresh
loops on entitlement 403s) and the reasoning-replay gating for xai-oauth
are unrelated and untouched.
Update tests to assert the body still surfaces verbatim and that no
Hermes-side editorializing is appended.
Port from anomalyco/opencode#25019 ("fix: handle invalid mcp urls").
Previously: a typo in `config.yaml` (missing scheme, wrong scheme,
empty string, non-string value) slipped past `_is_http()` and hit
`httpx.URL(url)` or `streamablehttp_client(url, ...)` deep in the
transport layer. That raised a generic exception which went through
the reconnect-backoff loop, so a bad URL caused _MAX_INITIAL_CONNECT_RETRIES
attempts with doubling backoff — about a minute of pointless retries
plus an opaque error — before the server was marked failed.
Now: we validate the URL once, at the top of `run()`, before
entering the retry loop. A malformed URL raises `InvalidMcpUrlError`
(a `ValueError` subclass) with a message that names the offending
server and explains exactly what was wrong. `_ready` is set and
`_error` is populated, so `start()` re-raises and the server shows
up as failed in `hermes mcp list` without any backoff burn.
Validation rules:
- Must be a string (rejects None, dict, int)
- Must be non-empty (rejects '' and whitespace-only)
- Scheme must be http or https (rejects file://, ws://, stdio://)
- Must have a non-empty host (rejects http:///, http://:8080)
Tests (21 new cases in tests/tools/test_mcp_invalid_url.py):
- TestValidUrlsAccepted: http, https, IPv6, ports, paths, query strings
- TestInvalidUrlsRejected: every rejection path above + clear error text
- TestErrorIsValueError: downstream code catching ValueError still works
E2E verified: a misconfigured server with `url: not-a-valid-url`
now fails in <0.001s with the clear error, instead of minutes of retries.
Doesn't touch stdio servers (they use `command`, not `url`) — the
validator only fires when `_is_http()` returns True.
Port from anomalyco/opencode#24730: Moonshot's JSON Schema validator rejects
two shapes that the rest of the JSON Schema ecosystem accepts:
1. $ref nodes with sibling keywords. Moonshot expands the reference before
validation and then rejects the node if keys like `description`, `type`,
or `default` appear alongside $ref. MCP-sourced tool schemas commonly
put a `description` on $ref-typed properties so the model sees the
field hint — which worked on every provider except Moonshot.
2. Tuple-style `items` arrays (positional element schemas). Moonshot's
engine requires ONE schema applied to every array element. Common in
tool schemas generated from Go/Protobuf that model fixed-length arrays
as `[{type:number}, {type:number}]`.
Repairs applied in `agent/moonshot_schema.py`:
- Rule 3: when a node has `$ref`, return `{"$ref": <value>}` only
(strip every sibling). The referenced definition still carries its own
description on the target node, which Moonshot accepts.
- Rule 4: when `items` is a list, collapse to the first element schema
(falling back to `{}` which is then filled by the generic missing-type
rule). Preserves `minItems` / `maxItems` / other siblings.
Tests: 10 new cases across TestRefSiblingStripping + TestTupleItems,
plus the existing TestMissingTypeFilled::test_ref_node_is_not_given_synthetic_type
still passes (it asserted plain $ref passes through; now it passes through
as exactly `{"$ref": "..."}` which is strictly compatible).
All 35 tests in test_moonshot_schema.py pass.
Emit a grep-friendly '[MEMORY] rss=...MB ...' line in agent.log /
gateway.log every N minutes (default 5) so slow leaks in the long-lived
gateway process show up as a time series. Based on
https://github.com/cline/cline/pull/10343
(src/standalone/memory-monitor.ts).
- gateway/memory_monitor.py: new module. Daemon thread, baseline on
start, final snapshot on stop. Uses resource.getrusage() (stdlib)
first, falls back to psutil, disables itself with one WARNING if
neither is available.
- gateway/run.py: start monitor right after setup_logging() in
start_gateway(); stop it in the shutdown block next to MCP teardown.
- hermes_cli/config.py: logging.memory_monitor { enabled, interval_seconds }
defaults under the existing logging section.
- tests/gateway/test_memory_monitor.py: 10 unit tests covering format,
baseline/shutdown snapshots, double-start noop, periodic timer,
daemon thread invariant, and unavailable-RSS warn-and-skip path.
Adapted from TypeScript/Node to Python (threading.Event-based daemon
thread instead of setInterval/unref), added Python-specific gc + thread
counts to the log line (handier than ext/arrayBuffers for diagnosing
Python gateway leaks), and gated behind a config.yaml toggle so users
can silence the periodic line if they want.
No heap-snapshot-on-OOM equivalent — CPython doesn't have V8's
--heapsnapshot-near-heap-limit; tracemalloc would be the Python
equivalent but adds non-trivial overhead, so leaving that out.
Port from google-gemini/gemini-cli#19332.
Users can now exit with '/exit --delete' (or '/quit --delete', '/exit -d')
to permanently remove the current session's SQLite history plus on-disk
transcripts (*.json / *.jsonl / request_dump_*) in one shot. Useful for
privacy-sensitive workflows and one-off interactions where leaving a
session recording behind is undesirable.
Implementation:
- New HermesCLI._delete_session_on_exit one-shot flag (defaults False).
- process_command() parses --delete / -d after /exit or /quit and arms
the flag. Unknown args print a hint and keep the CLI running (prevents
typos like '/exit -delete' from accidentally exiting).
- Shutdown path calls SessionDB.delete_session(session_id, sessions_dir=...)
right after end_session() when the flag is set. That API already
existed for 'hermes sessions delete' and handles both SQLite removal
(orphaning child sessions so FK constraints hold) and on-disk file
cleanup.
- /quit CommandDef now advertises '[--delete]' in args_hint so /help
and CLI autocomplete surface it.
Tests: tests/cli/test_exit_delete_session.py (12 cases covering both
aliases, case insensitivity, whitespace, short form, unknown-arg
rejection, and registry metadata).
E2E-verified with isolated HERMES_HOME: session row deleted, all three
transcript/request-dump files removed, second delete_session call
correctly returns False.
`hermes update` ran the repo-root and ui-tui npm installs with both
`--silent` and `subprocess.run(..., capture_output=True)`, which hides
all output from optional postinstall scripts. The largest of those —
`@askjo/camofox-browser`'s `npx camoufox-js fetch` — downloads a
Firefox-fork browser binary that can take many minutes on slow
connections. Because nothing was printed during that wait, the updater
appeared to hang at "Updating Node.js dependencies..." and users
Ctrl-C'd, sometimes leaving `node_modules` partially installed.
Drop `--silent` and pass `capture_output=False` for the repo-root and
ui-tui paths so npm streams its `info run …` postinstall lines straight
to the terminal. Output is still mirrored to `~/.hermes/logs/update.log`
by the existing `_UpdateOutputStream` wrapper, so SSH-disconnect safety
is preserved.
The `web/` install path is untouched — its build step is fast and does
not run binary-fetching postinstalls.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The `@askjo/camofox-browser` npm package was a top-level entry in
the root `package.json` `dependencies` block, so `hermes update`
ran its postinstall on every user, every update. That postinstall
calls `npx camoufox-js fetch`, which silently downloads a ~300MB
Firefox-fork browser binary from GitHub Releases — multi-minute on
fast connections, and a hard block for users on slow / restricted
networks (notably users in China running through a VPN).
Camofox is an explicit opt-in browser backend. The runtime check
in `tools/browser_tool.py` only routes through Camofox when the
user has set `CAMOFOX_URL` (selected via `hermes tools` →
Browser Automation → Camofox). Users who never opted in never
touched the package at runtime, yet every `hermes update` paid
for the binary fetch anyway.
This change:
* Removes `@askjo/camofox-browser` from root `package.json`
dependencies (and the regenerated `package-lock.json` drops
Camofox's entire transitive tree, ~2.6k lines).
* Updates the Camofox `post_setup` handler in
`hermes_cli/tools_config.py` to install
`@askjo/camofox-browser@^1.5.2` explicitly when the user
selects Camofox, and streams npm output (no `--silent`, no
`capture_output`) so the ~300MB download is visible rather
than appearing frozen.
* Adds `tests/test_package_json_lazy_deps.py` as a regression
guard so future PRs can't silently re-add Camofox (or any
binary-postinstall package) to eager root dependencies.
`agent-browser` stays eager — it is the default Chromium-driving
backend used by every session that does not have a cloud browser
provider configured, and its postinstall is small.
Validation:
| | Before | After |
|---|---|---|
| `hermes update` time on slow network | multi-minute hang at `→ Updating Node.js dependencies...` | seconds (no binary fetch) |
| Camofox opt-in install visibility | silent, looked frozen | streamed npm output |
| Regression guard against re-adding | none | `test_package_json_lazy_deps.py` |
Tests:
- `tests/test_package_json_lazy_deps.py`: 3/3 pass
- `tests/tools/test_browser_camofox*`: 92/92 pass
- `tests/hermes_cli/test_tools_config.py`: 66/66 pass
- `tests/hermes_cli/test_cmd_update.py` + adjacent: green
Reported by lulu (Discord, May 2026) — `hermes update` hangs at

Each highlight now gets 2-3 sentences explaining the user-facing value,
not just the technical change. Targeted at someone discovering Hermes
for the first time who isn't deep in the codebase.
Port from qwibitai/nanoclaw#1962: modern Signal V2-only groups surface on
dataMessage.groupV2.id, not groupInfo.groupId. signal-cli versions differ
in which field they expose for V2 groups — some forward the underlying
libsignal envelope verbatim (groupV2), others normalize everything into
groupInfo. Without a groupV2 read, V2-only groups appear as DMs because
groupInfo is undefined and the adapter misroutes them to the sender's
DM session.
Reads groupV2.id first, falls back to groupInfo.groupId. Also hardens
chat_name extraction against non-dict groupInfo payloads (crashed with
AttributeError under malformed envelopes).
6 new tests cover V2 routing, V1 legacy compatibility, V2-preferred
precedence, no-group DM path, allowlist enforcement, and malformed
payloads.
The video_gen toolset and its video_generate tool shipped without
user-facing reference docs. toolsets-reference.md and the dev-guide
plugin page were already in, but reference/tools-reference.md had no
video_gen section at all and user-guide/features/tools.md's Media row
didn't list video_generate.
- reference/tools-reference.md: add a video_gen section after video,
including backend list (xAI Grok-Imagine, FAL.ai Veo/Pixverse/Kling),
unified text-to-video / image-to-video surface note, link to the
dev-guide plugin page, and the video_generate tool row. Add
video_generate to the standalone-tools quick-counts line.
- user-guide/features/tools.md: extend Media row with video_generate
and video_analyze plus an opt-in caveat.
Switches `_replay_session_history` from `loop.call_soon`-deferred (after the
`LoadSessionResponse` is written) to `await`-inline (before the response is
constructed) for both `session/load` and `session/resume`. Adds defensive
try/except around the awaited call so a replay helper crash still yields a
successful load response — partial transcripts are acceptable, total
load failure is not.
The deferral was added on May 2 in commit 19854c7cd with the rationale "Zed
only attaches streamed transcript/tool updates once the load/resume response
has completed." That justification was incorrect:
- Zed's current ACP integration (zed-industries/zed
crates/agent_servers/src/acp.rs) explicitly registers the session-update
routing entry BEFORE awaiting the loadSession RPC, with the comment:
"so that any session/update notifications that arrive during the call
(e.g. history replay during session/load) can find the thread."
- Every other reference ACP server (Codex, Claude Code, OpenCode, Pi, agentao)
replays history BEFORE responding to the load request.
- The ACP spec wording ("Stream the entire conversation history back to the
client via notifications") and the natural JSON-RPC reading both mean
"during the request's lifetime", not "after the response resolves".
Empirical reproduction (reported by Biraj on @agentclientprotocol/sdk
v0.21.1): the same custom ACP client works correctly against Codex /
Claude Code / OpenCode / Pi but receives 0 notifications from Hermes
because it measures the per-call notification count at the moment
`loadSession` resolves — which on Hermes was before the `call_soon`-
scheduled replay coroutine had a chance to run.
Changes:
- `acp_adapter/server.py`: remove `_schedule_history_replay`; both
`load_session` and `resume_session` now `await self._replay_session_history`
before returning, wrapped in try/except that logs and continues on
helper exceptions.
- `tests/acp/test_server.py`: replace the single
`test_load_session_schedules_history_replay_after_response`
(which encoded the now-incorrect post-response ordering) with two tests
asserting `events == ["replay", "returned"]` for load and resume.
Add two regression tests confirming that a replay helper raising still
yields a `LoadSessionResponse` / `ResumeSessionResponse` rather than
propagating the exception out as a JSON-RPC error.
Result: 240 ACP tests pass (was 238), ruff clean. Verified end-to-end:
biraj's synchronous notification-counter pattern now sees 6 notifications
during `loadSession` for a 5-message session, matching all other reference
ACP servers.
The `_fenced_text` change in `acp_adapter/tools.py` from the same May 2
commit is orthogonal and intentionally left intact — it's a separate,
still-valid fix for Zed's pipe-as-table rendering.
Refs #12285. Follows up #26943 (which added thought-chunk replay but kept
the deferral).
Persisted assistant `reasoning_content` / `reasoning` fields are now emitted
as ACP `agent_thought_chunk` notifications during `_replay_session_history`,
so editor clients (Zed, etc.) rebuild collapsed Thinking panes when the user
re-opens a session that used a thinking model.
Ordering matches live streaming: thought precedes message text within the
same assistant turn, mirroring how `reasoning_callback` deltas arrive before
`stream_delta_callback` deltas in `events.py::make_thinking_cb` /
`make_message_cb`.
Behavior on non-reasoning histories is unchanged; the replay loop's existing
text / tool_call / tool_call_update / plan emission is preserved bit-for-bit.
Closes#12285.

Two unit tests for run_hermes_oauth_login_pure():
1. test_authorization_url_state_is_not_pkce_verifier — asserts state in the
auth URL is independent from the PKCE code_verifier sent in the token
exchange, and that the verifier never appears in the URL.
2. test_callback_state_mismatch_aborts — asserts the flow returns None
(no token exchange) when the callback state does not match the value
we generated.
Negative control verified: reintroducing the b17e5c10 vulnerable pattern
(state = verifier, no callback validation) makes both tests fail.
Also adds AUTHOR_MAP entry for shaun0927 (contributor of the fix).
Group the secrets import with time and webbrowser at the top of
run_hermes_oauth_login_pure(), matching the existing pattern.
Drop the _secrets alias — no name conflict in this scope.
The PKCE flow reused the code_verifier as the OAuth state parameter.
Per RFC 6749 §10.12 and RFC 7636, these serve different purposes:
state is an anti-CSRF token visible in the authorization URL; the
code_verifier must remain secret for the token exchange.
Generate an independent secrets.token_urlsafe(32) for state and
validate it on callback to provide actual CSRF protection.
Closes#10693
When the agent is running and the user sends multiple TEXT messages in
rapid succession, base.py's active-session branch stored the pending
event as a single-slot replacement:
self._pending_messages[session_key] = event
Three rapid messages A, B, C landed as: A (interrupts), B (replaces A
before consumer reads), C (replaces B). Only C reached the next turn —
A and B were silently dropped. This is the symptom in #4469.
Route the follow-up through merge_pending_message_event(..., merge_text=True)
so TEXT events accumulate into the existing pending event's text instead
of clobbering it. Photo and media bursts already merged through the same
helper; this just extends the merge_text path (already used by the
Telegram bursty-grace branch in gateway/run.py) to all platforms.
Test exercises BasePlatformAdapter.handle_message directly with the
session marked active and asserts three rapid TEXT events merge to
'part two\\npart three' rather than dropping the middle message.
Sanity-checked the test would fail without the fix.
Credits @devorun for the original investigation and analysis in #4491
that surfaced the underlying queue handling, though their fix targeted
GatewayRunner._pending_messages which is now dead state on main.
Follow-up improvements on top of @konsisumer's cherry-picked fix for #10648:
1. Deprecation patterns required BOTH a product fingerprint ('gh-copilot') and
a deprecation marker. The previous list included 'copilot-cli' and bare
'deprecation', which would false-positive on stderr from the NEW
@github/copilot CLI — whose repo is literally github.com/github/copilot-cli
and which legitimately surfaces those substrings in its own messages.
2. Replace the deprecation hint. The user in #10648 installed
'gh extension install github/gh-copilot' (the deprecated extension)
thinking that's what ACP mode uses, when ACP actually spawns the new
'copilot' binary from '@github/copilot'. The hint now points users at the
correct install command ('npm install -g @github/copilot') with the new
CLI's repo URL, and demotes provider-switching to a fallback alternative.
3. Change _URL_TO_PROVIDER value for models.inference.ai.azure.com from the
'github-models' alias to the canonical 'copilot' provider id, matching the
convention used by every other entry in the table.
4. Sharpen the 413 hint message. The free tier's ~8K cap is below the
system-prompt floor, so this endpoint is fundamentally incompatible with
an agentic loop — not a 'use a different URL' problem.
Tests:
- New parametrized false-positive coverage for the new CLI's stderr shape.
- Updated assertion to require canonical 'copilot' provider mapping.
- All 14 deprecation/URL tests pass.
Cover the deprecation pattern matching against real gh-copilot stderr
output, verify the GitHub Models Azure URL is in _URL_TO_PROVIDER, and
confirm _is_github_models_base_url recognises the Azure endpoint.
Address two blocking issues when using GitHub Copilot integrations:
1. ACP mode: detect the gh-copilot CLI deprecation error from stderr
and surface an actionable message with alternatives instead of
hanging or showing a cryptic error.
2. GitHub Models (Azure) 413: recognize models.inference.ai.azure.com
as a known GitHub Models URL, and print a targeted hint explaining
the hard 8K token limit that makes this endpoint incompatible with
Hermes' system prompt size.
Fixes#26693
`hermes doctor` currently promotes invalid direct API keys into the final
summary even when the matching OAuth path is already healthy. That makes
the setup look more broken than it really is.
This change keeps the failed API Connectivity row visible but stops
treating it as a blocking summary issue when a healthy OAuth fallback
already exists for the same provider family.
Covered cases:
- Gemini OAuth + invalid direct Gemini key
- MiniMax OAuth + invalid direct MiniMax key
Based on #26704 by @worlldz.
* feat(skills): add osint-investigation optional skill (closes#355)
Phase-1 public-records OSINT investigation framework adapted from
ShinMegamiBoson/OpenPlanter (MIT). Lives in optional-skills/research/.
Six data-source wiki entries (FEC, SEC EDGAR, USAspending, Senate LD,
OFAC SDN, ICIJ Offshore Leaks), each following the 9-section template:
summary, access, schema, coverage, cross-reference keys, data quality,
acquisition, legal, references.
Six stdlib-only acquisition scripts that emit normalized CSV, plus three
analysis scripts:
- entity_resolution.py — three-tier match (exact / fuzzy / token overlap)
with explicit confidence per row
- timing_analysis.py — permutation test for donation/contract timing
correlation, joins through cross-links
- build_findings.py — assembles structured findings.json with
evidence chains pointing back to source rows
Validation: full pipeline runs end-to-end on synthetic fixtures. Entity
resolution found 24 cross-matches with 0 false positives on a 5-row /
4-row test set. Timing analysis on 5 donations clustered near 3 awards
returned p=0.000, effect size 2.41 SD. Findings JSON correctly tags
HIGH-severity timing pattern. All 9 scripts pass --help and py_compile.
Docs site page auto-generated by website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py;
sidebar + catalog entries updated by the same generator.
* fix(osint-investigation): live API fixes from end-to-end sweep
Live-tested the skill on a real public-citizen query and found three bugs
the synthetic E2E missed. All three are now fixed and re-verified.
1. FEC fetch hung on contributor name searches.
The combination of two_year_transaction_period + sort=date +
contributor_name puts the OpenFEC query plan on a slow path that the
upstream gateway times out (25s+). Switched to min_date/max_date with no
explicit sort. Renamed --candidate to --contributor (the original name
was misleading: FEC searches by donor, not by candidate; --candidate is
kept as a deprecated alias). Added --state filter for narrowing.
2. ICIJ Offshore Leaks reconcile endpoint returns 404.
ICIJ removed the Open Refine reconciliation API. Rewrote
fetch_icij_offshore.py to download the official bulk CSV ZIP (~70 MB,
public, no auth) and search it locally. Cached under
$HERMES_OSINT_CACHE/icij/ (default ~/.cache/hermes-osint/icij/) for
30 days, --force-refresh to refetch. Verified live: 'PUTIN' query
returns 5 Panama Papers officer matches in 0.5s after first download.
3. SEC EDGAR silently returned 0 when the company-name resolver matched
an individual Form 3/4/5 filer (insider trading disclosures).
Now surfaces 'Resolved company X → CIK Y (Z)' on stderr, prints a
filing-type histogram when the type filter wipes results, and
explicitly warns when the matched CIK appears to be an individual
filer rather than a corporate registrant.
Bonus: _http.py was retrying 429 responses with exponential backoff plus
honoring (often-missing) Retry-After headers, which compounded into
multi-second hangs per page when the upstream key was over quota.
Changed to fail-fast on 429 with a clear, actionable error showing the
upstream's quota message. Verified: 0.3s fast-fail vs the previous 60s
hang on DEMO_KEY rate-limit exhaustion.
Updated SKILL.md, fec.md, and icij-offshore.md to match the new CLI
flags and ICIJ bulk-cache flow. Regenerated the docusaurus page via
website/scripts/generate-skill-docs.py.
Live sweep results across all 6 sources for 'Dillon Rolnick, New York':
- OFAC SDN: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not sanctioned)
- USAspending: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not a federal contractor)
- Senate LDA: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not a lobbying client)
- SEC EDGAR: warns it resolved to 'Rolnick Michael' (CIK 0001845264)
who is an individual Form 3 filer, not a corporate registrant
- ICIJ: 0 matches ✓ (correctly not in any offshore leak)
- FEC: rate-limited (DEMO_KEY); fails fast with clear quota message
* feat(osint-investigation): expand to 12 sources covering identity, property, courts, archives, news
Phase-2 expansion per Teknium feedback that the original 6-source skill
(federal financial/regulatory only) wasn't a complete OSINT toolkit. Adds
6 more sources covering the major omissions a real investigation would
reach for first.
New sources (6 fetch scripts + 6 wiki entries):
1. NYC ACRIS — Real property records (deeds, mortgages, liens) via the
city's Socrata API. Search by party name or property address. Joins
Parties to Master to populate doc_type, dates, borough, and amount.
Coverage: 5 NYC boroughs, ~70M party records, 1966-present.
2. OpenCorporates — Global corporate registry covering 130+ jurisdictions
(~200M companies). Free API token at
https://opencorporates.com/api_accounts/new raises the rate limit;
HTML fallback works without one (limited fields).
3. CourtListener (Free Law Project) — federal + state court opinions
(~10M back to colonial era) + PACER dockets via RECAP. Anonymous v4
search works; COURTLISTENER_TOKEN raises rate limits.
4. Wayback Machine CDX — historical web captures (~900B+). Used both for
surveillance-of-record (when did this site change?) and as a
content-recovery layer when other sources point to dead URLs.
5. Wikipedia + Wikidata — narrative bio + structured facts. Wikipedia
OpenSearch for article matching, REST summary for extracts, Wikidata
Action API (wbgetentities) for claims. Avoids the SPARQL Query
Service which is aggressively rate-limited.
6. GDELT 2.0 DOC API — global news monitoring in 100+ languages,
~2015-present. Auto-retries with 6s backoff on the standard
1-req-per-5-sec throttle.
Other changes in this commit:
- SEC EDGAR no longer raises SystemExit when the company-name resolver
finds no CIK; writes an empty CSV with header so the rest of a
pipeline can keep moving and the warning is just on stderr.
- _http.py User-Agent updated per Wikimedia policy: includes app name,
version, and a 'set HERMES_OSINT_UA to identify yourself' instruction.
- SKILL.md workflow now groups sources into two clusters (federal
financial vs identity/property/courts/archives/news) with bash
examples for each. 'When to use this skill' lists the broader set of
investigation patterns the expanded sources unlock.
Live sweep results on 'Dillon Rolnick, New York' across all 12 sources:
ofac ✓ 0 (correctly clean)
icij ✓ 0 (correctly not in any leak)
usaspending ✓ 0 (correctly not a federal contractor)
senate_lda ✓ 0 (correctly not a lobbying client)
sec_edgar ✓ 0, warns: resolved to 'Rolnick Michael' (CIK 0001845264),
individual Form 3 filer, NOT a corporate registrant
fec — rate-limited (DEMO_KEY exhausted), fails fast with
clear quota message
nyc_acris ✓ 200 records named Rolnick across NYC; 48 records at
571 Hudson (the property the web identifies as his)
opencorporates ✓ 0 (no API token configured; HTML fallback)
courtlistener ✓ 0 for 'Dillon Rolnick'; 20 for 'Rolnick' generally;
5 for 'Microsoft' sanity check
wayback ✓ 30 captures of nousresearch.com from 2011-present
wikipedia ✓ 0 (correctly not notable enough); Bill Gates sanity
returns full structured facts (occupation, employer,
DOB, place of birth, country)
gdelt ✓ 0 for 'Dillon Rolnick'; 5 for 'Nous Research'
All 17 scripts compile clean and pass --help. Synthetic analysis pipeline
regression still passes (entity_resolution 30 matches, timing p=0.000,
findings 2).
* feat(osint-investigation): remove FEC; DEMO_KEY rate-limits make it unreliable
The FEC fetcher consistently failed the live sweep because the OpenFEC
DEMO_KEY tier (40 calls/hour) exhausts on a single investigation, and
the upstream returns slow-path query plans for unindexed contributor-name
searches that the gateway times out. Without a real API key it's not
usable; with one the user has to sign up at api.data.gov first. That's
too much setup friction for a skill that should work out of the box.
Removed:
- scripts/fetch_fec.py
- references/sources/fec.md
Updated:
- SKILL.md frontmatter description + tags
- 'When NOT to use' now points users at https://www.fec.gov/data/ for
federal donations
- entity_resolution example switched from donor↔contractor to
lobbying-client↔contractor (Senate LDA + USAspending pair)
- timing_analysis example switched to lobbying-filings vs awards
- 8 wiki entries had their 'FEC ↔ ...' cross-reference bullets removed
11 sources remain (5 federal financial + 6 identity/property/courts/
archives/news). All scripts compile, pass --help, and the synthetic
analysis pipeline still passes on the new lobbying-shaped regression
fixture (30 matches, p=0.000 on tight clustering, 2 findings).
