* feat(desktop): surface every provider + models from `hermes model` in the GUI
The desktop GUI's model/provider choices were starved relative to the
`hermes model` CLI. Onboarding listed ~8 providers, Settings → Model only
showed authenticated ones, because the global `/api/model/options` endpoint
called build_models_payload() without the full-universe flags the TUI's
model.options JSON-RPC already used.
- web_server.py: `/api/model/options` now passes include_unconfigured +
picker_hints + canonical_order (matching the TUI handler), so every GUI
surface fed by it sees all 37 canonical providers with auth hints.
- Settings → Model: provider dropdown lists every provider; picking an
unconfigured api_key provider shows an inline 'paste key → Activate' flow
(auto-selects the recommended default); OAuth/external route to onboarding.
- Onboarding: the API-key form is now driven by the full provider catalog
(curated five first, then the rest), not a hand-maintained list of five.
- types/hermes.ts: ModelOptionProvider gains authenticated/auth_type/key_env.
- Tests: model-settings covers the full-universe list + inline activation;
fixed a pre-existing stale assertion (nous / hermes-4 was never rendered).
* feat(desktop): /model in GUI chat opens the model picker instead of a dead-end notice
Typing /model in a desktop chat session printed "/model uses the desktop
model picker instead of a slash command" and did nothing — it never opened
the picker. (The slash worker can't render the prompt_toolkit modal /model
opens in the CLI, so the desktop just showed the unavailable-notice.)
- use-prompt-actions.ts: intercept /model client-side. No args → open the
desktop model picker overlay (setModelPickerOpen) — the same full
provider+model picker as the status-bar button. With args (/model <name>
[--provider ...]) → run the switch directly via slash.exec so power users
can still type it.
- desktop-slash-commands.ts: export isModelPickerCommand() so the hook can
detect picker-owned commands without duplicating the PICKER_OWNED_COMMANDS set.
- Test: covers isModelPickerCommand for /model (+ args) vs non-picker commands.
* fix(desktop): make onboarding provider lists scrollable + clean up card styling
The full-catalog onboarding picker could overflow the modal with no way to
scroll — the OAuth provider list and the api-key grid both grew past the
viewport, hiding the key input and the bottom action row (overflow-hidden card,
no scroll container).
- Scope a `max-h-[60dvh] overflow-y-auto` region to just the provider list /
api-key card grid; the "other providers" disclosure, key input, and action
row stay pinned and reachable.
- Inner `p-1` so card borders / focus rings aren't clipped by the scroll viewport.
- Flatter card styling: drop the persistent border, the redundant selected-state
checkmark, and the modal shadow — selection now reads from the ring alone (the
muted "already configured" check stays).
- Remove the " — set up" suffix from the Settings → Model provider dropdown; the
inline setup flow already signals unconfigured providers.
* fix(desktop): identify api-key onboarding cards by env var, not id
Selecting "Google Gemini" also highlighted "Google AI Studio": the curated
catalog and the backend-derived providers can collide on `id` (a provider slug
can equal a curated id like `gemini`), so `option.id === o.id` matched two
cards at once. Key selection (and the React key + snap-back effect) on `envKey`
instead, which the catalog dedups and is therefore unique per card.

Conversation rhythm:
- Single `--paragraph-gap` knob drives paragraph spacing both inside a
markdown block and between consecutive prose parts, out-specifying Tailwind
Typography's prose margins. Code cards carry the same gap themselves so it
holds at any Streamdown nesting depth.
- Two-tier vertical rhythm: `--turn-block-gap` separates scaffolding (tools /
thinking) from the reply; `--tool-row-gap` keeps a tool run tight.
- Drop the prose indent so prose, tools, todos, and thinking share one left
edge. `---` renders as quiet spacing, not a heavy rule.
Flat tool list:
- Tools always render as a standalone-row stack, never a "Tool actions · N
steps" group. assistant-ui slices the tool range unstably (interleaved live
vs. reconstructed-consecutive when settled), so grouping reshuffled the whole
turn the instant it settled. Flat rows are pixel-identical either way.
- Inline approvals can no longer be buried in a collapsed group body.
- Remove the now-dead grouping helpers from tool-fallback-model.
Empty thinking:
- Suppress reasoning disclosures with no visible text (encrypted / spinner-
coerced reasoning) instead of leaving an empty "Thinking" header.
- Tail stall indicator returns "thinking" when a running turn goes quiet.
Streaming cadence:
- Smooth character-reveal decouples visible cadence from bursty arrival.
- Flush queued text deltas before applying tool events so a tool row can't
jump ahead of its preceding text.
- Disable Nagle on the GUI WebSocket so per-token frames aren't coalesced.
Polish: clarify/patch/vision_analyze tool meta, queue-panel + diff-lines
spacing, sticky human bubble expands on focus (not hover).
Strip shadow-composer (and its focus/open-state variants) from the
composer surface, composer fallback surface, and the shared user-bubble
base class. Also drop the !important box-shadow override on
[data-slot=composer-surface] that re-applied the shadow regardless of
the utility class, so the flatter look actually takes effect.
Switching the main model never touches auxiliary slot pins (they're
independent, sticky per-task overrides). A user who switches main away
from a now-unpaid provider keeps paying 402s on every background aux call
until they manually reset those pins — silently, with no UI signal.
- /api/model/set scope:'main' now returns stale_aux: slots still pinned
to a provider different from the new main (additive field).
- Desktop Model Settings shows a switch-time notice after Apply AND a
persistent banner when any loaded aux slot mismatches the main provider,
both wired to the existing 'Reset all to main' action.
- Never auto-clears pins — a dedicated cheaper aux model is a legitimate
config; surface-and-offer instead of nuking.
- Fixes a stale pre-existing assertion in the panel test (main model now
renders via selectors, not a standalone label).
The inline steer note used a ⏩ emoji. Emit a structured `steer:<text>`
system note and render it in SystemMessage as a codicon (compass) row —
same style as slash-status output. No emoji in the transcript.
Cmd/Ctrl+Enter now steers when there's a steerable draft and is a no-op
otherwise — it never falls through to a send, so the shortcut can't
surprise-send. Plain Enter keeps its role (queue while busy, send when idle).
A steer rides inside a tool result (the only role-alternation-safe slot
mid-turn), so a bare "User guidance:" line reads as untrusted tool content —
well-behaved models refuse it as suspected prompt injection (observed live:
"I only follow instructions from you directly, not ones injected through
command results").
- Wrap steers in a bounded, self-describing [OUT-OF-BAND USER MESSAGE] marker
(prompt_builder.format_steer_marker), shared by both drain sites.
- Add STEER_CHANNEL_NOTE to the core system prompt so the model expects this
exact marker and trusts it as a genuine user message — while still ignoring
lookalikes buried in tool/web/file output. Static text → byte-stable prompt,
no prompt-cache regression; gated on the agent having tools.
- Desktop: steer ack is now an inline transcript note (⏩ steered · …) instead
of a toast.
Marker is intentionally static (not a per-session nonce) to honor the
byte-stable system-prompt caching policy; nonce hardening noted as follow-up.
The desktop app could only queue while busy — `/steer` was in the palette
but had no first-class affordance, so the "nudge the agent mid-turn without
interrupting" lane was effectively unreachable.
Add a steer action to the composer: while busy with a text-only draft, a
steering-wheel button (and Cmd/Ctrl+Enter) injects the text into the live
turn via the `session.steer` RPC — the gateway folds it into the next tool
result so the model reads it on its next iteration. Plain Enter still queues.
steerPrompt returns false when the gateway has no live tool window (or the
RPC errors), and the composer re-queues the words so nothing is lost — the
same safety net as a plain queue.
Builds on @naqerl's arrow up/down history (previous commit), making
ArrowUp do the right thing when a queue exists.
ArrowUp/ArrowDown priority:
1. Editing a queued turn → walk older/newer through queued entries,
saving each edit; ArrowDown past the newest exits and restores the
pre-edit draft.
2. Empty composer + queued turns → ArrowUp opens the newest queued entry
for editing (the row's pencil), so Enter saves it back to the queue
instead of firing a new message — the gap the history nav had alone.
3. Otherwise → sent-message history recall (unchanged).
Also: Esc cancels an in-progress queue edit (else interrupts).
Cleanups on the integrated code: fold the browse-state reset into the
existing session-change effect (drop the duplicate ref+effect); reuse
loadIntoComposer for history recall; sort imports; add curly braces +
the runDrain sessionId dep (lint).
* fix(desktop): make composer message queue reliable
The queue felt 'dumb' because of three real bugs:
1. Drained-after-interrupt sends went silent. cancelRun sets
interrupted:true and nothing reset it; submitPromptText's optimistic
seed preserved it, and the message stream drops every delta while
interrupted. So Send-now-while-busy and any interrupt+drain submitted
the next turn into a muted session. Fix: a fresh submit is a new turn —
seed interrupted:false.
2. Back-to-back queue drains stalled. The drain fires on the busy->false
settle edge, but busyRef (synced from the busy store by a separate
effect) can still read true on that same edge, so the drained send hit
the busy guard, returned false, and the entry was never removed. Fix:
fromQueue sends bypass the busyRef guard (the queue drain lock
serializes them); the user path keeps the guard.
3. Double-enter-to-interrupt killed single non-queue turns. The hidden
450ms timer meant a natural double-tap after sending stopped the agent.
Fix: empty Enter while busy is a no-op; interrupting is explicit —
Stop button or Esc.
Also: clean stop (no [interrupted] marker), Send-now works while busy
(promote + interrupt + auto-drain), settle on the interrupted completion
path. Adds regression tests and unblocks the prompt-actions suite by
completing its stale @/hermes mock.
* fix(desktop): float the queue panel as an overlay so the chat doesn't resize
The queue list rendered in-flow inside the composer root, so its height
fed --composer-measured-height (the composer rect drives the thread's
bottom padding + last-message clearance). Queuing a message grew that
rect and the whole chat visibly resized.
Anchor the panel out of flow above the composer (absolute bottom-full,
capped at 40vh with internal scroll). It no longer contributes to the
measured height, so the thread layout stays put and the list overlays the
(already faded) chat. Still collapsible via the panel's own
disclosure header.
* fix(desktop): queue panel collapsed by default + shared border with composer
- Default the queue disclosure to collapsed (compact 'N queued' pill)
instead of expanded.
- Drop the gap and merge the panel into the composer: square bottom
corners, no bottom border/radius, and overlap down by the Root's pt-2
(-mb-2) so the panel's borderless bottom lands on the composer surface's
top border — one continuous bordered shape.
* style(desktop): tighten queue panel padding
* style(desktop): trim queue-ux comments to house style
* style(desktop): drop 'Cursor' references from comments
The new IME repro test has two it() blocks but the desktop suite registers
no global testing-library auto-cleanup, so the first render() leaked its
editor into the second test and getByTestId('editor') matched two nodes.
Add afterEach(cleanup) so each case renders into a fresh DOM.
DOM repro that drives compositionstart -> input(preedit) -> compositionend with
no trailing input event and asserts the composer payload (send button) becomes
visible for committed CJK/IME input. Regression guard for #39614.
Typing committed multi-character IME text (e.g. Chinese "你好", and equally
Japanese/Korean or any IME-composed script) left the send button hidden until
an unrelated edit. Input events during composition carry uncommitted preedit
text and are intentionally skipped; the code assumed a trailing input event
after compositionend would deliver the finalized text, but Chromium does not
reliably emit one on Windows IMEs. The committed text therefore never reached
composer state, so `hasComposerPayload` stayed false and the send button stayed
hidden (deleting a char fired a non-composition input that finally synced it).
Flush the live editor text into composer state in onCompositionEnd. Extract the
shared sync into flushEditorToDraft so input and compositionend both update
state.
Fixes#39614
Follow-up to #39921. That PR scoped session.resume + prompt.submit to a
session's profile, but a BRAND-NEW chat (session.create) under a non-launch
profile was still built and persisted against the dashboard's launch profile.
Two visible symptoms in app-global remote mode (one dashboard, many profiles):
1. "who are you" in profile S replied as the launch (default) profile/agent —
the agent was built with the launch HERMES_HOME, so config/SOUL/identity
came from the wrong profile.
2. "session not found" on later resume — _ensure_session_db_row persisted the
row into the launch profile's state.db via _get_db(), so the session lived
in the wrong db, the unified list mis-tagged it (it showed up under BOTH
profiles), and resume routed to the wrong one.
Fix — carry the owning profile through the create path too:
- session.create accepts an optional `profile`; resolves its home and stores
`profile_home` on the session (alongside what resume already set).
- _start_agent_build binds that profile's HERMES_HOME while building the agent
(config/skills/model/identity resolve to it) and hands the agent the profile's
state.db so turns persist there.
- _ensure_session_db_row writes the row into the profile's state.db, not the
launch db — fixing the duplicate row + mis-tag + resume 404.
- desktop sends the new-chat profile on session.create.
None/launch profile → unchanged (single-profile and per-profile-remote setups
take the same path). Verified live against a one-dashboard / multi-profile
remote: a new chat under `work` builds as work's agent (correct SOUL identity),
persists ONLY to work's state.db (launch db stays empty), the unified list tags
it `work` exactly once, and it resumes cleanly.
tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py: _make_agent mocks updated for the session_db
param added in #39921's build path.
Introduce a lightweight React context-based i18n layer for the desktop
app and translate the UI into Simplified Chinese.
- New apps/desktop/src/i18n module: typed Translations interface, en + zh
locale tables, I18nProvider/useI18n, localStorage-persisted locale
(defaults to English), and language endonym metadata for the picker.
- Wire I18nProvider at the app root in main.tsx.
- Refactor 24 desktop screens/components to read strings from the `t`
object instead of hard-coded English.
- Add a unit test for the i18n context.
* fix(desktop): cross-profile session history in app-global remote mode
#39894 made remote-profile sessions first-class for PER-PROFILE remote
overrides. But the common setup — Settings → Gateway → "All profiles" → Remote
— writes app-GLOBAL remote mode (connection.json top-level mode:'remote', empty
profiles map), which the intercept didn't recognize. Switching to a non-launch
profile then 404'd every session read, so no history showed for it.
In global remote mode a SINGLE backend serves every profile via ?profile= (it
reads each profile's state.db off the remote host's own disk — verified: one
dashboard returns /api/profiles and /api/profiles/sessions?profile=all across
all profiles). The fix: when no per-profile override matches but global remote
mode is active, route per-session reads/mutations to that one backend and KEEP
the ?profile= param so it opens the right state.db (instead of bailing to the
local path and dropping the profile scope).
- new globalRemoteActive() — true for connection.json mode:'remote' or the
HERMES_DESKTOP_REMOTE_URL env override.
- per-session branch: per-profile override → route sans profile (own db);
global mode → route to the single backend WITH ?profile= preserved.
- unified list is unchanged in global mode: it already passes through to the one
backend, which aggregates all profiles natively.
Verified live against a one-dashboard / multi-profile remote (Austin's topology):
cross-profile transcript reads load (was 404), rename/delete route to the right
profile, unified list spans both profiles.
Known limitation (architectural, not fixed here): LIVE chat as a non-launch
profile still needs a per-profile dashboard on the remote — the dashboard binds
HERMES_HOME once at process start, so one global backend can't run an agent
turn as another profile. Session history/read/mutate now work regardless.
* fix(gateway): resume + chat any profile over one global-remote dashboard
The REST half of this branch made cross-profile session history visible in
app-global remote mode, but resume + chat still went over the WebSocket gateway,
which was hard-bound to the dashboard's launch profile. Resuming a non-launch
profile's session 404'd ("session not found") and sending spawned a new session
— because session.resume/prompt.submit had no profile concept and the live
agent + state.db were process-global to the launch profile's HERMES_HOME.
Make the WS gateway per-session profile-aware so ONE dashboard can serve every
local profile on its host (the app-global remote topology):
- session.resume accepts an optional `profile`. _profile_home() resolves that
profile's home on this host; resume opens THAT profile's state.db, binds its
HERMES_HOME (ContextVar override) while building the agent so config/skills/
model resolve to it, and passes the profile db to the agent so turns persist
to the right state.db. The owning profile_home is stored on the session.
- prompt.submit re-binds the stored profile_home for the turn thread (mid-turn
home reads — memory, skills — resolve to the resumed profile), reset in finally.
- _make_agent gains an optional session_db param (defaults to _get_db()).
- _load_cfg honors the home override (falls back to _hermes_home) so a resumed
profile loads its own config; cache keyed on resolved path.
- desktop: session.resume now sends the owning profile.
Omitted/launch profile → unchanged (single-profile and per-profile-remote setups
are byte-for-byte the same path). Verified live against a one-dashboard /
multi-profile remote: resuming a non-launch profile's session loads its history,
runs a real turn against THAT profile's home/env, and persists to its state.db.
tests/tui_gateway/test_protocol.py: _make_agent mocks updated for the new param.
Follow-up to the read-routing fix: make remote-profile sessions fully
first-class, not just resumable.
Mutations (rename/archive/delete) went through the same hermes:api handler but
never carried the owning profile, so they hit the local primary's state.db --
which has no row for a remote session. Deleting/archiving/renaming a remote
session silently no-op'd or 404'd, and the row reappeared on next refresh.
- hermes.ts: setSessionArchived/deleteSession/renameSession take the owning
profile and pass it as request.profile so Electron routes to that profile's
backend (matching the read path). Callers now forward session.profile.
- main.cjs: generalize the intercept (read -> request) to also reroute
DELETE/PATCH on /api/sessions/{id} for remote profiles, stripping the profile
param (the remote serves its own state.db; no cross-profile semantics there).
- web_server.py: DELETE /api/sessions/{id} gains a profile param for parity with
GET/PATCH (local cross-profile delete).
Also fix the unified-list merge: it concatenated each remote's page onto the
primary's without re-windowing, so a limit=N request could return up to
N*(1+remotes) rows and report the primary's (stale) total. Now it over-fetches
limit+offset from each remote (from offset 0), re-sorts by recency, re-windows
to the page, and recomputes total/profile_totals from the remote counts.
Verified live against a remote backend: rename/archive/delete mutate the remote
db; page 1 windows to limit, profile_totals reflect remote counts, page 2 has no
overlap with page 1. tsc -b clean; connection-config tests pass.
Two switch-time regressions from the multi-profile rail work:
- "Session not found" (4007): pruneSecondaryGateways idle-reaps a
non-active profile's backend; switching back respawns a *fresh*
backend that mints new runtime ids, but runtimeIdByStoredSessionId is
never pruned. resumeSession's cache fast-path then makes a dead runtime
id active and returns, so session.usage + the next prompt 404. Probe
the cached id; on rejection drop the stale mapping and fall through to
a full resume that rebinds a live id.
- "Forgets the LLM setting": $currentModel is a nanostore set only by
refreshCurrentModel (gatewayState->open, etc). A swap fires
invalidateQueries() (react-query only) and keeps the socket 'open', so
the model/pill kept showing the previous profile. Re-pull both when
$activeGatewayProfile changes.
* feat(desktop): per-profile remote gateway hosts
Profile switching silently failed whenever the desktop was connected to a
remote backend: the rail routed non-active profiles to a local pool backend,
but spawnPoolBackend hard-threw "Profiles are unavailable when connected to a
remote Hermes backend", and the renderer swallowed the error into an infinite
reconnect backoff while still marking the profile active. Remote was also a
single app-global setting, so there was no way to give a profile its own host.
Add per-profile remote hosts so each profile can point at its own backend:
- connection.json gains a validated `profiles` map; profileRemoteOverride()
(pure, unit-tested) selects an explicit per-profile remote.
- resolveRemoteBackend(profile) precedence: per-profile override → env override
→ global remote → local spawn. spawnPoolBackend now connects to a profile's
remote (no local child) instead of throwing; startHermes resolves the primary
profile's remote.
- coerce/sanitize connection config are scope-aware (global vs named profile)
and preserve each other's entries; IPC get/save/apply/test thread an optional
profile. Per-profile apply drops only that profile's pool backend.
- Settings → Gateway adds an "Applies to" scope selector reusing the existing
URL/token/OAuth/test UX per profile.
Tests: connection-config pure suite (+6) and desktop platform suite pass;
tsc/eslint/vitest clean.
* refactor(desktop): DRY per-profile remote helpers
Share connectionScopeKey + normAuthMode from connection-config.cjs (drop the
main.cjs copy), collapse the scope/auth ternaries, route the env remote through
buildRemoteConnection, and fold the duplicated remote-block validation into
buildRemoteBlock. No behavior change; pure suite + live E2E still green.
* Revert "fix(update): require managed marker before destructive clean"
This reverts commit c8e80cd0bf.
* Revert "fix(update): stop stash/restore from clobbering desktop source on managed clones (#38542)"
This reverts commit 8a19884bf3.
* chore(install): keep npm ci desktop-build fix after stash revert
The destructive-clean reverts (#38542/#39568) pulled the desktop
workspace install back to bare `npm install`. The npm ci -> npm install
fallback is orthogonal build-correctness (avoids the Windows
workspace-hoisting flake where install reports up-to-date against a
stale marker while node_modules is empty, breaking tsc -b). Preserve it.
* feat(update): settable stash-or-discard for non-interactive local changes
Adds updates.non_interactive_local_changes (stash | discard, default
stash). Governs ONLY non-interactive updates (desktop/chat app, gateway,
--yes) — interactive terminal updates always stash-and-ask, unchanged.
- config.py: new key under existing updates section; _config_version 26->27.
- main.py: _cmd_update_impl detects non-interactive (gateway/--yes/no-TTY),
reads the setting; new _discard_stashed_changes() drops the stash
(stash-and-drop, never reset --hard/clean -fd, so ignored paths survive).
Post-pull restore site branches on it; the bail-out and up-to-date
restores always preserve work.
- web_server.py + apps/desktop settings: exposes it as a stash/discard
select (Advanced section, In-App Update Local Changes).
- docs + tests (discard drops, stash restores, interactive ignores setting,
missing section defaults to stash).
* fix(install.ps1): stash/restore instead of reset --hard on Windows update
The PR reverted the destructive update path to stash/restore everywhere
except scripts/install.ps1, whose managed-clone update path still ran
`git reset --hard HEAD` before checkout — silently destroying agent-edited
tracked source on Windows (the same #38542 data-loss class the PR fixes).
- Replace `git reset --hard HEAD` with stash-before-checkout +
restore-after-checkout, mirroring install.sh. Untracked files are
included so agent-created dirs (e.g. tinker-atropos/) survive.
- Keep `core.autocrlf false` (it prevents the phantom CRLF dirt that made
the stash necessary; it's also load-bearing for a clean restore).
- Wrap all three checkout modes (Commit/Tag/Branch); Branch case now uses
`git pull --ff-only` so local commits are never clobbered.
- Only prompt to restore when a real console is attached (UserInteractive
+ non-redirected stdin/stdout + ConsoleHost); the desktop Update button
and bootstrap have no usable console, so they default to restore and
never hang on Read-Host.
- On restore conflict or a failed update, the stash is preserved with
recovery instructions — work is never silently dropped.
Validated on Windows (PowerShell 5.1, git 2.54): AST parse clean;
E2E non-conflicting restore applies+drops cleanly with ignored paths
(node_modules) untouched; conflicting restore preserves the stash.

Mirror the workspace-group "+": each profile header in the all-profiles
session list gets a new-session button. Unlike selecting the profile, it
leaves the browse scope untouched (newSessionInProfile keeps
$showAllProfiles), so creating a chat doesn't collapse the unified view.
Keep one persistent socket per profile with live work instead of closing
the single socket on every profile swap, so background sessions across
profiles keep streaming at once. A gateway registry owns the primary
(window) socket plus lazy secondaries (own backoff/reconnect); all feed
the same session-keyed event handler. Secondaries are pruned to profiles
with a working/needs-input session, the keepalive pings every open
backend, and LRU eviction spares freshly-touched backends so the soft cap
can't abort a running agent. Approval/sudo/secret prompts are parked
per-session (surfaced via the needs-input badge) so a background turn can
block without hijacking the foreground. Single-profile users only ever
have the primary, so their path is unchanged.
Resolve conflicts in desktop settings/cron/messaging/sidebar: adopt main's
ListRow + actions-menu refactors for credential rows; keep our profileColor
import on the sidebar. Drop the now-orphaned Tip-based helpers.
Hold (~450ms) a profile square — or right-click → Color… — to open a
shadcn Popover of swatches and override its rail color, with Auto to fall
back to the deterministic hue. The hold timer rides alongside the dnd
pointer listener (a real drag cancels it, the trailing click is
suppressed), so reorder/select/recolor stay distinct gestures.
Overrides persist in localStorage ($profileColors), resolved via
resolveProfileColor (override wins, else the name-hashed hue). Cosmetic
and gated on the multi-profile rail, so single-profile users are
unaffected. Adds a reusable ui/popover.tsx (radix-ui umbrella).
Centralize the fallback in DeleteProfileDialog (the single delete choke
point) so both the rail and the Profiles view inherit it. Reset *after*
the host's onDeleted refresh so a refreshActiveProfile racing the dying
backend can't clobber the pill back to the deleted profile, and set
$activeProfile too (selectProfile only moved the gateway, leaving the
statusbar pill stranded on the dead profile).
Drag a sidebar session into the composer to drop an @session:<profile>/<id>
chip the agent resolves via session_search. New READ shape dumps a whole
session by id (head+tail when large); a `profile` param reads another
profile's DB read-only, and a cross-profile locate scan resolves bare ids
when the model drops the owning profile from the link.
Also: ASCII "waking up <profile>" overlay during lazy gateway swaps,
global haptic rate-limit to kill the reconnect-storm "clickity" buzz, and
reauth toasts surfaced once per disconnect instead of every backoff tick.
The desktop `/title <name>` command 404s with "Session not found" on
every platform (reported on Windows in #38508).
Root cause: `session.create` returns two distinct ids — a *runtime*
session id (held in `activeSessionIdRef`) and a `stored_session_id` (the
DB `sessions.id`) — and deliberately does NOT persist a DB row until the
first turn. Routing `/title` through the REST `PATCH /api/sessions/{id}`
endpoint (as #38576 proposed) resolves the id against the `sessions`
table, so the runtime id — or any brand-new, not-yet-persisted session —
never resolves and returns 404. This is an id-type mismatch, not a
Windows file-locking quirk, so it fails on macOS and Linux too.
Fix: route `/title <name>` through the gateway's `session.title` RPC —
the exact path the TUI already uses (`ui-tui/.../slash/commands/core.ts`).
The RPC maps the runtime id to the in-memory session, writes through the
gateway's own DB connection, and queues the title (`pending: true`) when
the row isn't persisted yet, so it works for a fresh chat. The sidebar is
then refreshed via the existing `refreshSessions()` plumbing.
Keeps the sidebar-refresh wiring and `refreshSessions` threading from
#38576; replaces only the broken REST/slash-worker write path. A bare
`/title` (no arg) still falls through to the worker to show the current
title.
Tests rewritten to assert `session.title` routing with the runtime-vs-
stored id distinction (which the original mock collapsed), plus the
queued/`pending` fresh-chat case and the error path.
Supersedes #38576. Fixes#38508.

- right-click a profile square to rename or delete it, via shared
self-contained dialogs (also reused by the profiles page)
- switching or creating a profile now resets to a fresh new-session
draft so the prior session doesn't stay sticky across contexts
- deleting the profile you're currently in falls back to default
instead of stranding the gateway on a dead profile
- shared ConfirmDialog: Enter/Space confirm from anywhere in the dialog;
profile-delete and cron-delete both route through it
The per-session icon picker added more noise than value — rip it out end
to end (sessions.icon column, set_session_icon, the PATCH field, the
picker UI, and the SessionInfo.icon type).
The cross-profile session aggregator now opens each profile's state.db
read-only (mode=ro, no schema init), so listing other profiles on every
sidebar refresh never DDLs or takes a write lock on their live DBs. The
single-profile hot path stays on par with /api/sessions.
Left-align the default's home icon next to the create "+" in the
single-profile state (toggle/squares/Manage still appear only once a
second profile exists).
Always mount the profile rail, but when only the default profile exists
render just the create-profile "+" (hide the default/all toggle, the
draggable squares, and Manage). Gives a first-profile affordance without
the full switcher chrome; everything else appears once a 2nd profile exists.
If a user drops back to a single profile while scope is still ALL
(persisted), the rail is hidden — they'd be stuck in the grouped view
with no toggle out. Fall back to the scoped view when only one profile.
- Wheel maps vertical scroll → horizontal so the rail is navigable with a
plain mouse (trackpad x-scroll still passes through).
- Springy easeOutBack reflow; dragged square glides between snapped cells
(no scale — overflow-x strip would clip it) with a subtle lift.
- Haptic 'selection' tick per crossed cell + 'success' on a committed reorder.
Snap the drag transform to whole cells (no free glide) and clamp it to the
occupied squares strip via a relative wrapper as offsetParent, so a square
can't float past the last profile onto the "+" and break the layout.
overflow-x-auto makes overflow-y compute to auto, so a vertical drag
translate faulted in a cross-axis scrollbar. Pin the drag transform to
y:0 with a modifier — squares only slide horizontally now.
Bind Cmd/Ctrl+P to the command palette alongside Cmd+K (VS Code quick-open
muscle memory); Cmd+. stays the command center. No Print accelerator
competes, so the renderer preventDefault is enough.
Make the named-profile squares reorderable via dnd-kit (horizontal sort,
4px activation so a tap still selects). Order persists in localStorage
($profileOrder); unordered/new profiles alphabetize at the tail.
- Add a "+" in the profile rail that opens a self-contained CreateProfileDialog
(name + clone toggle + optional SOUL.md); extract it and ActionStatus from
the profiles view so both surfaces share one flow.
- Keep the profile rail pinned to the bottom when a profile has no sessions by
rendering a flex-1 spacer (previously the rail floated up to the nav).
Add first-class profile support to the desktop app without app reloads.
- Swap the single live gateway onto a session's profile lazily (spawned on
demand by the Electron backend pool), so one backend serves the active
profile and others stay cold — no OOM with many profiles.
- Aggregate sessions across profiles by reading each profile's state.db
read-only; unified "All profiles" view groups sessions per profile with
per-profile pagination, while the default view stays scoped to one profile.
- Add an Arc-style profile rail at the sidebar foot: a default<->all toggle
pinned left, colored named-profile squares scrolling between, Manage pinned
right. Profile identity is a deterministic per-name color.
- Route profile-scoped REST (config/env/skills/tools/model) to the active
gateway profile and invalidate React Query caches on swap. Single-profile
users never trigger a swap, so their path is unchanged.
Backend:
- web_server: profile-aware active/list endpoints + per-profile session
totals; hermes_state: session_count(exclude_children); main.py: honor
--profile over HERMES_HOME env for pooled backends.
UI primitives:
- Add a position-aware Tip tooltip (instant, themed) as a drop-in for native
title=, and strip redundant tooltips from self-descriptive chrome.
