The Discord fix (previous commit) handles dict-shaped clarify choices at the
Discord adapter only. The same dict-repr leak originates upstream at
tools/clarify_tool.py's str(c).strip() normalization — the single
platform-agnostic point both the CLI and every gateway adapter flow through.
When an LLM emits [{"description": "..."}] instead of bare strings, str(c)
produced {'description': '...'} which leaked onto the CLI panel
(cli.py:13048/13081), was returned verbatim as the user's answer
(cli.py:11945), and hit Telegram's numbered list too.
Add _flatten_choice (same label->description->text->title unwrap as the
Discord adapter, name/value excluded, keyless dicts dropped) and apply it at
the normalization line. Fixes CLI + Telegram + all platforms at the root;
the Discord smart-truncation now operates on already-clean text.
Adds johnjacobkenny to AUTHOR_MAP for the salvaged commit.
systemctl --user restart hermes-gateway run via the terminal tool is a
child of the gateway itself. When systemd delivers SIGTERM the gateway
kills this subprocess before it can complete, so the service may never
restart — reproducing issue #37453.
The hermes gateway restart/stop guard (hermes_cli/gateway.py) and the
cron-path guard (hermes_cli/cron.py) already block equivalent commands
in their respective paths but the terminal tool had no such defense.
Add a hard-block before command execution in terminal_tool: when
_HERMES_GATEWAY=1 and the command matches _contains_gateway_lifecycle_command,
return an error immediately. force=True cannot bypass it — unlike the
normal dangerous-command approval flow, here even a user-approved restart
would fail because the SIGTERM propagates to child processes.
Also extend _GATEWAY_LIFECYCLE_PATTERNS to match systemctl with flags
(e.g. systemctl --user restart) — the previous regex required the
action word immediately after systemctl with no flags in between.
Adds 9 regression tests: 6 blocked variants (parametrized), force bypass
attempt, safe systemctl passthrough, and guard-inactive-outside-gateway.
* feat(image-gen): add image-to-image / editing to image_generate
Brings image generation to parity with video generation: the unified
image_generate tool now edits/transforms a source image (image-to-image)
when given image_url / reference_image_urls, routing to each backend's
edit endpoint, exactly as video_generate routes to image-to-video.
- ImageGenProvider ABC: generate() gains keyword-only image_url +
reference_image_urls; new capabilities() declares modalities +
max_reference_images (defaults to text-only, backward compatible).
success_response gains a modality field; adds normalize_reference_images.
- image_generate tool: schema exposes image_url + reference_image_urls;
dynamic schema reflects the active model's actual edit capability so the
agent knows when image_url is honored. Handler + plugin dispatch forward
the new inputs; legacy/text-only providers get a clear modality_unsupported
error instead of silently dropping the source image.
- In-tree FAL: 7 models gain edit endpoints (flux-2-klein, flux-2-pro,
nano-banana-pro, gpt-image-1.5, gpt-image-2, ideogram/v3, qwen-image)
with per-model edit_supports whitelists + reference caps; routes to the
/edit endpoint and skips the upscaler for edits.
- Plugins: openai (images.edit, 16 refs), xai (/v1/images/edits via
grok-imagine-image-quality, JSON body per xAI docs), krea
(image_style_references, 10 refs). openai-codex stays text-only and
rejects edits with an actionable error.
- Tests: 15 new (payload, routing, dispatch forwarding, dynamic schema,
capabilities); updated 2 change-detector/lambda tests for the new schema.
- Docs: image-generation feature page, image-gen provider plugin guide,
tools reference.
* fix(image-gen): preserve legacy passthrough in fal/krea plugin tests
Two existing plugin tests asserted pre-image-to-image behavior:
- fal: forward image_url/reference_image_urls only when supplied, so a
text-to-image delegation stays byte-identical (no None kwargs).
- krea: keep dict-shaped image_style_references refs verbatim (the unified
string refs go through normalize_reference_images; legacy non-string ref
objects pass through unchanged) — fixes KeyError when callers pass the
richer Krea ref-object shape.
* fix(image-gen): clearer not-capable message for text-to-image-only models
When a text-to-image-only model (incl. gpt-image-2 on the Codex OAuth path,
which can't do editing through the Responses image_generation tool) gets a
source image, say 'this model is not capable of image-to-image / editing —
provide a text-only prompt' rather than sending the user shopping for other
backends. Applies to the openai-codex guard, the in-tree FAL no-edit-endpoint
error, and the dynamic tool-schema text-only line.
When a worker calls kanban_create from inside a session that has a
persistent delivery channel, the originating session is now subscribed
to the new task's completion/block events automatically. The agent
that dispatched the task gets notified instead of having to poll.
- Gateway sessions (telegram/discord/slack): HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM +
HERMES_SESSION_CHAT_ID ContextVars, set by the messaging gateway.
- TUI / desktop sessions: HERMES_SESSION_KEY in the subprocess env.
The TUI notification poller keys on platform='tui' + chat_id=<key>.
- CLI / cron / test: no persistent channel, no subscription.
Gated by kanban.auto_subscribe_on_create in config.yaml (default True).
Disable to mirror pre-feature behaviour — users who want explicit
kanban_notify-subscribe calls per task can set it to false. This
config gate addresses the design concern that got PR #19718 reverted
upstream (unconditional implicit auto-subscribe on tool-driven
kanban_create was too aggressive for orchestrator users).
HERMES_SESSION_ID is intentionally not a fallback channel — it is
set by ACP/agent subprocess telemetry for every invocation, not just
TUI, so treating it as a notification target would auto-subscribe
every CLI session and re-introduce the over-eager behaviour.
The kanban_create response now includes a 'subscribed' bool so
orchestrators can react if subscription failed (e.g. by falling
back to explicit kanban_notify-subscribe or to polling).
Includes 6 tests covering the gateway / TUI / CLI / partial-context /
gated / add_notify_sub-failure paths. All 90 tests in
test_kanban_tools.py pass; 509 broader kanban tests pass.
The memory tool was strictly one-op-per-call. With the store running near
its char limit by design, a new add that would overflow gets rejected with
'consolidate now, then retry' -- but the model could not consolidate and add
in one call. It had to remove/replace across several turns, then retry the
add, each turn re-sending the whole conversation context. Expensive thrash.
Add an 'operations' array: a list of add/replace/remove ops applied
atomically against the FINAL char budget. The model frees space and adds new
entries in ONE call, even when an add alone would overflow. All-or-nothing:
any bad op aborts the whole batch, nothing written.
Root-cause note: the two agent-level memory interception sites
(agent_runtime_helpers.py, tool_executor.py) silently dropped any param not
in their explicit kwarg list, so 'operations' never reached the handler and
batch calls failed with 'Unknown action None'. Both now pass it through and
bridge each add/replace op to external memory providers.
Also: success response is now terminal (done=true + 'do not repeat' note,
no full-entries echo that invited re-edits); schema rewritten to lead with
the batch mechanism and an explicit one-shot stop rule (2138 -> 1476 chars).
Live-verified: near-full consolidate-and-add went 7 calls -> 1 call,
stable across 3 reps. 103 memory/approval tests + 398 background-review/
run_agent tests green; 6 new batch tests added.
The salvaged guard allowed _rmtree_writable(SKILLS_DIR) itself. No call
site ever passes the root — every site passes a skill subdir or its .bak
sibling — so allowing the root only preserves the #48200 footgun (a dest
that collapses to the root wipes every installed skill). Require a strict
strict-child relationship and update the test that documented the
nonexistent 'full reset' capability.
Defense-in-depth fix for the silent wipe of ~/.hermes/ documented in
#48200. A `hermes update --yes` run silently destroyed a user's
.env, MEMORY.md, kanban.db, custom skills, and scripts. Two changes:
1. `_rmtree_writable` in tools/skills_sync.py now refuses to rmtree
anything outside SKILLS_DIR (the HERMES_HOME/skills/ root).
All five call sites pass paths under SKILLS_DIR, so the guard is
a no-op for current code and a loud, recoverable failure for
any future regression (bad path join, malicious bundled
manifest, stale path in scope after an exception).
2. The default `updates.pre_update_backup` flips from false to
true in hermes_cli/config.py. A few minutes of zip per update
is negligible compared to silent total data loss. Still
overridable; --no-backup still works for one-off opt-out.
Five new tests in TestRmtreeWritableScopeGuard (root path,
hermes home, sibling dir, skills root itself, subdir) plus a
flipped `test_default_enabled_creates_backup` in test_backup.py.
178/178 tests pass in the two affected files. Public method
signatures unchanged, no test-stub blast radius.
Closes#48200
- Use _sanitize_subprocess_env() to filter Hermes-managed credentials
from the cua-driver subprocess environment (issue #37878)
- Prevents credential exfiltration to the third-party cua-driver binary
- Aligns with existing pattern used by browser-tool and other tools
- Add regression test to verify environment sanitization
The cua-driver is a lower-trust MCP subprocess per SECURITY.md §2.3.
Its inherited environment is now scrubbed by default, removing provider
API keys, gateway tokens, and platform credentials that should not leak
to third-party binaries.
Fixes#37878
Cleanup pass on the salvage (behavior-preserving):
- diff_bundled_skill now uses the existing _skill_file_list() helper
instead of reimplementing the rglob/is_file/relative_to file-set
enumeration inline (twice).
- Extract _is_tracked_user_modification(origin_hash, user_hash) and use
it in BOTH the sync loop and list_user_modified_bundled_skills() so the
'kept user edit' rule can't drift between the two sites.
- _read_text_for_diff -> _read_for_diff returns (bytes, text); the binary
branch now compares the bytes it already read instead of re-reading
both files from disk.
- Drop the unused 'user_present' key from diff_bundled_skill's return
contract (no consumer or test ever read it).
- test_update_modified_notice: drop the brittle '>= 2 sites' count-floor
so consolidating the two print paths into a shared helper stays a
welcome refactor; keep the per-site 'count notice => discovery hint'
invariant (still mutation-tested).
`hermes update` keeps (won't overwrite) bundled skills the user edited
locally, but only printed a count — "~ N user-modified (kept)" — with no way
to learn which skills, or see what changed. Reverting already existed
(`hermes skills reset <name> [--restore]`); discovery and inspection did not.
Add two CLI commands (zero model-tool footprint), reusing the manifest
origin-hash that sync already maintains:
- `hermes skills list-modified [--json]` — list the bundled skills whose
on-disk copy diverges from the last-synced origin hash (the exact test the
sync loop uses to decide what to skip).
- `hermes skills diff <name>` — unified diff between the user's copy and the
current bundled (stock) version, so the user can confirm what changed
before reverting.
Both are mirrored as `/skills list-modified` and `/skills diff`. The
`hermes update` notice now points at `hermes skills list-modified`. Core
helpers `list_user_modified_bundled_skills()` and `diff_bundled_skill()` live
in tools/skills_sync.py alongside the existing reset logic.
Follow-up to #47663 (streaming multipart upload), fixing two issues that
landed with it.
1. Temp file leaked on client disconnect. The streaming upload endpoint's
except chain caught only HTTPException / PermissionError / OSError — all
Exception subclasses. asyncio.CancelledError, raised when a browser aborts
a large upload mid-stream (the exact NS-501 scenario), is a BaseException,
so it bypassed every except clause and reached a finally that only closed
the file handle and never unlinked the temp file. Every aborted large
upload orphaned a partial `.{name}.*.upload` file (up to ~100 MB) in the
target directory. Cleanup now lives in finally, keyed on a `renamed`
success flag, so the temp file is removed on every non-success exit
including BaseException paths. Added test_stream_upload_cleans_temp_on_cancellation,
which fails on the pre-fix code (leaks the temp file) and passes with the fix.
2. python-multipart pinned to ==0.0.27 instead of ==0.0.20. The package was
already resolved at 0.0.27 transitively (via daytona) before #47663; the
explicit ==0.0.20 pin in the [web] extra and the tool.dashboard lazy-install
set downgraded it. Bumped both to ==0.0.27 and regenerated with `uv lock`,
keeping the lockfile coherent. The base dependency stays >=0.0.9,<1.
* fix(dashboard): stream file uploads via multipart instead of base64 JSON
The dashboard file manager uploaded files (including backup/restore zip
archives) by reading them client-side with FileReader.readAsDataURL and
POSTing a base64 data URL inside a JSON body to /api/files/upload. For a
large backup this (a) inflates the payload ~33%, (b) buffers the whole
file plus its decoded copy in memory, and (c) reliably trips an upstream
proxy body-size/timeout limit, surfacing as a 502 with the upload
appearing to hang indefinitely (NS-501). Dashboard-only hosted users have
no shell fallback to place the archive, so backup restore was unusable.
Add a streaming multipart endpoint POST /api/files/upload-stream
(UploadFile + Form) that reads the request body in 1 MiB chunks straight
to a sibling temp file, enforces the existing 100 MB size cap as it
streams (413 on overflow, before buffering the whole file), and
atomically renames into place so a partial/aborted/over-limit upload
never clobbers an existing file. The frontend api.uploadFile now sends
multipart/form-data (raw bytes, no base64, browser-set boundary) and
FilesPage passes the File object directly; the dead readAsDataUrl helper
is removed. The legacy base64 JSON endpoint stays for backward compat.
FastAPI's UploadFile/Form require python-multipart, which is NOT pulled in
by fastapi itself, so it is added to the base deps, the [web] extra, and
the tool.dashboard lazy-install set (kept in sync).
Validated: 5 new endpoint tests (roundtrip, multi-chunk >1 MiB,
over-limit 413 without clobbering + no temp-file leak, overwrite=false
conflict, forced-root traversal containment); existing base64 tests still
pass; web typecheck + vite build clean; and a real uvicorn server E2E
(5 MB multipart upload -> HTTP 200 in 0.21s, exact byte match) plus a
30 MB TestClient roundtrip confirm constant-memory streaming end to end.
Reported via beta (NS-501).
* build(deps): regenerate uv.lock for python-multipart (NS-501)
CI ran uv lock --check / uv sync --locked which failed because the
python-multipart dependency add was not reflected in uv.lock. Regenerate
the lockfile (resolves to 0.0.20, matching the [web] extra pin) after
merging current main.
* feat(search_files): path-grouped lossless densification of content matches
Content-mode search_files results repeat the {path,line,content} JSON keys
and the full path string for every match. Group consecutive same-path matches
under one path header with indented '<line>: <content>' rows — lossless (every
path/line/content byte preserved), self-describing (matches_format key), and
readable by the model with no decode step.
57.8% mean token reduction on real search_files content outputs (422-output
corpus), fires on 97% of them. Gated at >=5 matches; below that the verbose
array is left untouched. Default to_dict(densify=False) is unchanged, so no
other caller is affected.
ripgrep emits matches path-ordered, so consecutive grouping never reorders
results.
* test: accept densify kwarg in _FakeSearchResult.to_dict
The search loop-detection tests stub SearchResult with a fake whose
to_dict() must mirror the real signature now that it takes densify=.
* test(search_files): edge-case losslessness battery for densification
Adversarial single-line content (colons, indentation, unicode/emoji, empty,
trailing whitespace, quotes+commas), paths with spaces, and an explicit
one-line-per-match invariant documenting the ripgrep contract the format
relies on (0/6775 real match contents contained a newline).
* feat(mcp): raise default tool-call timeout 120s -> 300s
Port from openai/codex#28234. Long-running MCP tools (web fetches,
sandboxed builds, deep-research servers) routinely exceed 120s, causing
spurious timeout failures. Codex bumped its default MCP tool timeout from
120 to 300 for the same reason.
- _DEFAULT_TOOL_TIMEOUT 120 -> 300 in tools/mcp_tool.py (per-server
'timeout' config override unchanged)
- update test_default_timeout assertion
- document the default in mcp-config-reference.md
* refactor: remove agent-callable send_message tool
The agent should not decide on its own to fire off cross-platform
messages or reactions. Outbound platform messaging is handled outside
the agent loop — cron delivery, the gateway kanban notifier
(dashboard-toggled), and the `hermes send` CLI.
Removes the model-tool registration only; the send engine in
send_message_tool.py (_send_to_platform, _send_via_adapter,
_parse_target_ref, per-platform _send_* helpers) is kept intact for
those non-agent callers. Drops the now-empty 'messaging' toolset and
its `hermes tools` toggle. Yuanbao DM guidance now points at the
native yb_send_dm tool.
restore_skill() falls back to p.name.startswith(f"{skill_name}-") when no
archive directory matches the requested name exactly. That fallback is meant
to catch the timestamped duplicate archive_skill() writes on a name collision
(<skill>-YYYYMMDDHHMMSS), but the bare prefix also matches any unrelated
archived skill named <name>-something. So restoring "git" can pull an archived
"git-helpers" out of .archive/, rename it to "git", and report success: the
requested skill is not restored and the sibling is gone from the archive.
Constrain the fallback to the exact suffix archive_skill() produces, a 14 digit
timestamp. The exact-name match and the recursive nested-archive walk are
unchanged, so nested and timestamped restores still work; unrelated siblings no
longer match.
Fixes#47647
Support files under references/, templates/, assets/, and scripts/ are progressive-disclosure data loaded through skill_view(..., file_path=...). They should not be treated as standalone skills during discovery or collision checks.
This prevents archived skill packages or support markdown files inside a real skill from shadowing active skills with the same name while still allowing top-level categories named scripts/templates/assets/references.
Tests cover:
- pruning nested SKILL.md files inside skill support directories
- preserving support-named top-level categories
- avoiding skill_view collisions from support markdown
- keeping archived package SKILL.md files accessible only through file_path
* feat(desktop): stream subagent replies into watch windows
A desktop watch window resumes a child session lazily (no full agent) and
mirrors the parent-relayed `subagent.*` events into native child-session
stream events. The child's streamed reply text was never relayed, so the
window sat blank while the subagent "talked".
- delegate_tool: forward the child's `run_conversation` stream tokens up the
progress relay as `subagent.text` (inert under CLI/TUI — their progress
handlers ignore non-tool event types; only a gateway watch window mirrors it).
- server: mirror `subagent.text` -> `message.delta` on the child sid only, and
skip the parent emit (per-token frames are meaningless on the parent session,
which shows the child via the spawn tree). Demote `subagent.start` to a
one-time goal header and drop the noisy `subagent.progress` mirror — tools
already mirror natively.
- server: guard `_start_agent_build` so a lazy watch session spectating an
in-flight child stays lazy; incidental RPCs were upgrading it to a full
agent mid-stream and silently killing the mirror.
* fix(desktop): keep watch-window chat clear of titlebar chrome
Secondary windows (new-session scratch, subagent watch, cmd-click pop-out)
hide the titlebar tool cluster + session header, so the transcript ran to the
window's top edge and streamed text slid up under the OS traffic lights.
- Gate the hidden chrome on `isSecondaryWindow()` everywhere (app-shell,
chat header, thread list) instead of the narrower new-session flag.
- Add a fixed opaque drag-strip at the top of the secondary-window transcript:
content padding alone scrolls away with the text, so the strip masks
anything behind it and keeps the window draggable like the main header.
* fix: WSL subagent window
* fix: subagent window top padding

When display.memory_notifications is set to 'verbose', skill_manage
notifications now show meaningful change details instead of just the
generic tool message.
Before (verbose mode):
💾📝 Patched SKILL.md in skill 'gogcli' (1 replacement).
After (verbose mode):
💾📝 Skill 'gogcli' patched: "old pitfall text..." → "new pitfall text..."
Changes:
- skill_manager_tool.py: _patch_skill() now includes old/new string
previews (truncated to 200 chars) in the result via '_change' key.
_create_skill() and _edit_skill() include skill description from
frontmatter for verbose create/edit notifications.
- run_agent.py: Background review notification builder now reads the
'_change' dict from skill tool results and formats descriptive
notifications per action type (patch → old→new diff, create/edit →
description preview). Falls back to generic message when _change
data is unavailable (backwards compatible).
This is especially useful when subagents patch skills, since neither
the user nor the parent agent can see what the subagent changed.
Port from Kilo-Org/kilocode#11240. Their issue #11227 lost a user's entire
working directory: a built-in-skill sentinel location resolved to the server
cwd and the skill-removal endpoint ran a recursive delete on it.
Hermes' /skills uninstall path (skills_hub.py) is already hardened, but the
agent-facing skill_manage(action='delete') path did a bare
shutil.rmtree(skill_dir) with no last-line validation. Add _validate_delete_target():
refuse to rmtree a path that (1) isn't strictly inside a known skills root,
(2) is a skills root itself, or (3) is reached via a symlink/junction.
Tests: 4 cases (normal delete works; symlinked dir, skills-root, out-of-tree
all refused). E2E verified with real symlink + file I/O.
* feat(delegation): async background subagents via delegate_task(background=true)
delegate_task(background=true) dispatches a subagent that runs in the
background and returns a handle immediately, so the user and model keep
working while it runs. The full result — plus the original task source —
re-enters the conversation as a new turn when the subagent finishes,
riding the same completion-queue rail as terminal background processes.
- tools/async_delegation.py: daemon-executor registry, capacity cap,
rich self-contained completion event pushed onto the shared
process_registry.completion_queue (type='async_delegation').
- delegate_tool.py: background param + single-task dispatch branch;
batch async rejected (v1).
- process_registry.py: format_process_notification renders the rich
task-source block (goal/context/toolsets/model/status/result).
- gateway/run.py: dedicated _async_delegation_watcher drains + injects
results into the originating session (idle + post-turn), session_key
routing enrichment, shutdown interrupt of dangling delegations.
- config: delegation.max_async_children (default 3).
Reuses the existing idle-drain wiring rather than mutating a running
agent loop, preserving message-role alternation and prompt-cache
invariants. 13 targeted tests; CLI + gateway paths E2E-verified.
* test(delegation): make async non-blocking tests environment-independent
CI 'test (5)' flaked on a cold, 8-worker runner: the first
delegate_task(background=true) call measured 2.27s of one-time setup
(config load + child-agent construction + imports), tripping the
elapsed < 1.0 wall-clock assertion. That assertion was testing setup
overhead, not blocking.
Replace the wall-clock thresholds with the real invariant: dispatch
returns while the child is still gated (active_count == 1, completion
queue empty), which a synchronous impl could not do. Keep only a loose
4s sanity backstop well under the runner's 5s gate.
* fix(delegation): harden async background delegation
Follow-up review fixes:
- Detach background child from parent._active_children at dispatch —
otherwise parent-turn interrupts (Ctrl+C, mid-turn steering), cache
evicts (release_clients), and session close (/new) kill/close the
detached subagent mid-run, defeating the point of background mode.
Lifecycle is owned by the async registry's interrupt_fn.
- Make the capacity check atomic with the record insert (TOCTOU: two
concurrent dispatches could both pass active_count() and exceed the cap).
- TUI dedup: key async_delegation events by delegation_id — the
fallthrough keyed them all as ("", type), suppressing every completion
after the first in the desktop/TUI status feed.
- CLI /stop now interrupts running background delegations and /agents
lists them (they live outside the process registry and were invisible).
- Drop stray unbalanced ']' line from the re-injection block and the
unused _ASYNC_DEFAULT import.
Tests: detach-at-dispatch + concurrent-capacity race added (15 total in
test_async_delegation.py); 137 delegate + 140 process-registry/notify/watch
+ 7 TUI dedup tests pass.
* fix(delegation): harden async background completion drains
* fix(teams): package Microsoft Teams SDK as an installable extra
The Teams adapter imports the microsoft-teams-apps SDK, but it was never
declared as a dependency, so source/local installs hit ImportError and the
adapter silently reported the SDK as unavailable. Add a 'teams' extra
(microsoft-teams-apps==2.0.13.4 + aiohttp) and document 'uv sync --extra teams'.
Per the 2026-05-12 [all] policy, opt-in messaging-platform SDKs are NOT added
to [all] (they would break every fresh install on a quarantined release); the
teams extra is installed on demand like the other platform backends.

* chore: map rio-jeong contributor email for attribution (#43945)
* feat(teams): lazy-install the Teams SDK on demand (parity with other channels)
The teams extra alone left Teams as the only messaging platform that wouldn't
auto-install its SDK — every other channel (telegram, discord, slack, matrix,
dingtalk, feishu) lazy-installs via tools.lazy_deps on first connect. Bring
Teams to parity:
- Add 'platform.teams' to LAZY_DEPS (microsoft-teams-apps + aiohttp).
- Replace the passive 'check_teams_requirements = check_requirements' alias with
a real lazy-installer that calls ensure_and_bind('platform.teams', ...),
rebinding all Teams SDK globals on success (mirrors check_slack_requirements).
- Call check_teams_requirements() at the top of TeamsAdapter.connect() so
enabling Teams installs the SDK on demand.
- Keep the passive check_requirements() as the registry check_fn so 'gateway
status' probes never trigger a pip install.
The 'teams' extra remains for packagers / explicit 'uv sync --extra teams'.
Tests: rework the alias test into shortcircuit + lazy-install assertions, and
update test_connect_fails_without_sdk to simulate an uninstallable SDK.

Track why a background process finished and include that source in notify-on-complete messages so SIGTERM from process.kill, kill_all, backend loss, and ordinary exits are distinguishable.
send_message(target="whatsapp:<group-jid>") silently delivered to the
configured home DM instead of the requested group. Two gaps:
1. _parse_target_ref had no WhatsApp branch. Group JIDs (<id>@g.us),
user JIDs (<id>@s.whatsapp.net), linked-identity JIDs (<id>@lid), and
broadcast/newsletter JIDs matched no pattern and fell through to
`return None, None, False`, so the caller treated them as
unresolvable and used the home channel. The bridge's /send endpoint
accepts any chatId, so only the tool-side target parsing was at fault.
Add a whatsapp branch that recognizes native JIDs as explicit targets.
The pre-existing '+'-prefixed E.164 path is preserved.
2. WhatsApp groups have no human-friendly name — the channel directory
is regenerated from session data on a timer, so a group shows up as
its raw 18-digit JID and any hand-edit to channel_directory.json is
clobbered on the next rebuild. Add a user-maintained alias overlay
(~/.hermes/channel_aliases.json) re-applied on every build AND every
load, giving durable friendly names and letting a freshly-created
group be pre-named before its first message.
Tests: TestParseTargetRefWhatsAppJID (7 cases) for the parser;
TestChannelAliases (7 cases) for the overlay, plus an autouse fixture
isolating CHANNEL_ALIASES_PATH so a real alias file can't leak into the
existing directory tests.
_configured_terminal_cwd and _registered_task_cwd_override carried a
byte-identical sentinel + expanduser + isabs validation tail. Extract it
into _sentinel_free_abs_cwd(raw) so the relative/sentinel rejection rule
lives in one place. Behaviour unchanged (the str() coercion the override
path relied on is preserved in the helper).
The session-cwd fix inserted a registered task/session cwd override step
between the live-cwd and $TERMINAL_CWD fallbacks, but three docstrings still
described the old two-step order — _resolve_base_dir's numbered list was
outright wrong. Update _authoritative_workspace_root, _resolve_base_dir, and
_path_resolution_warning to reflect the actual four-step resolution order.
No behaviour change.
The raw-key-first-then-collapsed override lookup was hand-rolled in three
places with subtly different spellings: terminal_tool's command setup, and
both file_tools._registered_task_cwd_override and _get_file_ops. Since that
exact raw-vs-collapsed invariant is what the session-cwd fix depends on,
keeping three copies invites the drift that caused the original bug.
Add terminal_tool.resolve_task_overrides(task_id) as the single source and
route all three sites through it. Behaviour is unchanged (verified
byte-equivalent across raw/collapsed/isolation/None/subagent inputs).
Remove the free Parallel Search MCP path and restore the keyed Parallel backend behavior from before it was introduced.
Also drops the keyless fallback registration/display labeling tests and returns the Parallel SDK pin to the prior version.
The platform-disabled fix landed only in agent.skill_utils.get_disabled_skill_names
(the system-prompt path). Two sibling resolvers still used the old
replace-not-union semantics, so the same skill could be hidden from the
<available_skills> prompt yet reported enabled elsewhere:
- hermes_cli/skills_config.get_disabled_skills (the 'hermes skills config' UI)
returned only the platform list, so a globally-disabled skill showed as
enabled (unchecked) on any platform with a platform_disabled entry.
- tools/skills_tool._is_skill_disabled (gates whether skill_view loads a skill)
ignored the global list when a platform list existed, so a globally-disabled
skill could still be loaded on such a platform.
Both now union the global list with the platform list, matching
get_disabled_skill_names. An explicit empty platform list no longer re-enables
a globally-disabled skill — global disables hold on every platform (#46201).
Also: fix the now-stale get_disabled_skill_names docstring and drop a stray
blank line. Regression tests added for both sites (proven to fail on the old
replace semantics).
When profile isolation activates ({HERMES_HOME}/home/ exists), child
processes receive HOME={HERMES_HOME}/home/ for tool config isolation
(git, ssh, gh). However, scripts using Path.home() to locate
~/.hermes/ would incorrectly resolve to the isolated profile home,
breaking helpers that rely on the real user home directory.
New get_real_home() helper in hermes_constants resolves the actual
user home independently of profile isolation. All four subprocess
spawners now inject HERMES_REAL_HOME alongside the profile HOME:
- tools/code_execution_tool.py (execute_code)
- tools/environments/local.py (terminal background, run_env)
- agent/copilot_acp_client.py (Copilot ACP)
Child scripts can now use:
Path(os.environ.get("HERMES_REAL_HOME", os.environ.get("HOME", "")))
to reliably find the real user home regardless of profile isolation.
Closes#25114
Recover an orphaned .bak before classification (interrupted updates no longer read as user deletions), clear a stale .bak before shutil.move (replace, not nest), and clear a partial dest before restore so restore-on-failure actually runs.
Fixes#44942
tools/approval.py already denies tee/redirection writes to every
_SENSITIVE_WRITE_TARGET (~/.ssh/*, ~/.netrc/.pgpass/.npmrc/.pypirc, shell
rc files, ~/.hermes/config.yaml/.env) via the DANGEROUS_PATTERNS tee/`>`
rules, but cp/mv/install were only paired for _SYSTEM_CONFIG_PATH (/etc) and
the project-relative env/config target. So `cp evil ~/.ssh/authorized_keys`
(SSH-key implant / persistence), `cp creds ~/.netrc`, and `cp evil ~/.bashrc`
(login-time command injection) auto-approved while the equivalent tee/`>`
forms were denied — an unpaired write deny is theater (same rationale as
#14639 / commit 4e9d886d, which paired the terminal side for
~/.hermes/config.yaml writes but did not touch these cp/mv/install verbs on
the broader sensitive set).
Add one (cp|mv|install) DANGEROUS_PATTERNS entry reusing the existing
_SENSITIVE_WRITE_TARGET fragment, anchored via _COMMAND_TAIL so it fires on
the destination (last arg) only: reading OUT of a sensitive path
(`cp ~/.ssh/config /tmp/x`) stays auto-approved. Description differs from the
system-config cp entry so the two keep distinct approval keys (no silent
cross-approval). Additive — does not subsume the /etc or project-config rules.
Adds TestSensitiveCopyMovePattern: 5 positive cases (ssh authorized_keys,
ssh private key via mv, netrc via install, bashrc, ~/.hermes/config.yaml) +
2 negative guards (copy FROM ssh, unrelated copy). The ssh/netrc/bashrc
positives fail on main and pass on this branch; the negatives stay green
both ways.
* feat(cli): add --safe-mode troubleshooting flag
Inspired by Claude Code v2.1.169 (June 2026): run Hermes with all
customizations disabled to isolate setup problems from product bugs.
--safe-mode implies --ignore-user-config and --ignore-rules, and
additionally skips plugin discovery (hermes_cli/plugins.py) and MCP
server loading (tools/mcp_tool.py) via the internal HERMES_SAFE_MODE
env bridge.
* fix(desktop): keep composer usable during reconnect
