Previously 'hermes auth spotify' crashed with 'HERMES_SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID
is required' if the user hadn't manually created a Spotify developer
app and set env vars. Now the command detects a missing client_id and
walks the user through the one-time app registration inline:
- Opens https://developer.spotify.com/dashboard in the browser
- Tells the user exactly what to paste into the Spotify form
(including the correct default redirect URI, 127.0.0.1:43827)
- Prompts for the Client ID
- Persists HERMES_SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID to ~/.hermes/.env so subsequent
runs skip the wizard
- Continues straight into the PKCE OAuth flow
Also prints the docs URL at both the start of the wizard and the end
of a successful login so users can find the full guide.
Adds website/docs/user-guide/features/spotify.md with the complete
setup walkthrough, tool reference, and troubleshooting, and wires it
into the sidebar under User Guide > Features > Advanced.
Fixes a stale redirect URI default in the hermes_cli/tools_config.py
TOOL_CATEGORIES entry (was 8888/callback from the PR description
instead of the actual DEFAULT_SPOTIFY_REDIRECT_URI value
43827/spotify/callback defined in auth.py).
`_normalize_for_deepseek` was mapping every non-reasoner input into
`deepseek-chat` on the assumption that DeepSeek's API accepts only two
model IDs. That assumption no longer holds — `deepseek-v4-pro` and
`deepseek-v4-flash` are first-class IDs accepted by the direct API,
and on aggregators `deepseek-chat` routes explicitly to V3 (DeepInfra
backend returns `deepseek-chat-v3`). So a user picking V4 Pro through
the model picker was being silently downgraded to V3.
Verified 2026-04-24 against Nous portal's OpenAI-compat surface:
- `deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash` → provider: DeepSeek,
model: deepseek-v4-flash-20260423
- `deepseek/deepseek-chat` → provider: DeepInfra,
model: deepseek/deepseek-chat-v3
Fix:
- Add `deepseek-v4-pro` and `deepseek-v4-flash` to
`_DEEPSEEK_CANONICAL_MODELS` so exact matches pass through.
- Add `_DEEPSEEK_V_SERIES_RE` (`^deepseek-v\d+(...)?$`) so future
V-series IDs (`deepseek-v5-*`, dated variants) keep passing through
without another code change.
- Update docstring + module header to reflect the new rule.
Tests:
- New `TestDeepseekVSeriesPassThrough` — 8 parametrized cases covering
bare, vendor-prefixed, case-variant, dated, and future V-series IDs
plus end-to-end `normalize_model_for_provider(..., "deepseek")`.
- New `TestDeepseekCanonicalAndReasonerMapping` — regression coverage
for canonical pass-through, reasoner-keyword folding, and
fall-back-to-chat behaviour.
- 77/77 pass.
Reported on Discord (Ufonik, Don Piedro): `/model > Deepseek >
deepseek-v4-pro` surfaced
`Normalized 'deepseek-v4-pro' to 'deepseek-chat'`. Picker listing
showed the v4 names, so validation also rejected the post-normalize
`deepseek-chat` as "not in provider listing" — the contradiction
users saw. Normalizer now respects the picker's choice.
The Copilot provider resolved context windows via models.dev static data,
which does not include account-specific models (e.g. claude-opus-4.6-1m
with 1M context). This adds the live Copilot /models API as a higher-
priority source for copilot/copilot-acp/github-copilot providers.
New helper get_copilot_model_context() in hermes_cli/models.py extracts
capabilities.limits.max_prompt_tokens from the cached catalog. Results
are cached in-process for 1 hour.
In agent/model_metadata.py, step 5a queries the live API before falling
through to models.dev (step 5b). This ensures account-specific models
get correct context windows while standard models still have a fallback.
Part 1 of #7731.
Refs: #7272
Raw GitHub tokens (gho_/github_pat_/ghu_) are now exchanged for
short-lived Copilot API tokens via /copilot_internal/v2/token before
being used as Bearer credentials. This is required to access
internal-only models (e.g. claude-opus-4.6-1m with 1M context).
Implementation:
- exchange_copilot_token(): calls the token exchange endpoint with
in-process caching (dict keyed by SHA-256 fingerprint), refreshed
2 minutes before expiry. No disk persistence — gateway is long-running
so in-memory cache is sufficient.
- get_copilot_api_token(): convenience wrapper with graceful fallback —
returns exchanged token on success, raw token on failure.
- Both callers (hermes_cli/auth.py and agent/credential_pool.py) now
pipe the raw token through get_copilot_api_token() before use.
12 new tests covering exchange, caching, expiry, error handling,
fingerprinting, and caller integration. All 185 existing copilot/auth
tests pass.
Part 2 of #7731.
Two narrow fixes motivated by #15099.
1. _seed_from_singletons() was dropping obtained_at, agent_key_obtained_at,
expires_in, and friends when seeding device_code pool entries from the
providers.nous singleton. Fresh credentials showed up with
obtained_at=None, which broke downstream freshness-sensitive consumers
(self-heal hooks, pool pruning by age) — they treated just-minted
credentials as older than they actually were and evicted them.
2. When the Nous Portal OAuth 2.1 server returns invalid_grant with
'Refresh token reuse detected' in the error_description, rewrite the
message to explain the likely cause (an external process consumed the
rotated RT without persisting it back) and the mitigation. The generic
reuse message led users to report this as a Hermes persistence bug when
the actual trigger was typically a third-party monitoring script calling
/api/oauth/token directly. Non-reuse errors keep their original server
description untouched.
Closes#15099.
Regression tests:
- tests/agent/test_credential_pool.py::test_nous_seed_from_singletons_preserves_obtained_at_timestamps
- tests/hermes_cli/test_auth_nous_provider.py::test_refresh_token_reuse_detection_surfaces_actionable_message
- tests/hermes_cli/test_auth_nous_provider.py::test_refresh_non_reuse_error_keeps_original_description
agent/redact.py snapshots _REDACT_ENABLED from HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS at
module-import time. hermes_cli/main.py calls setup_logging() early, which
transitively imports agent.redact — BEFORE any config bridge has run. So
users who set 'security.redact_secrets: false' in config.yaml (instead of
HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS=false in .env) had the toggle silently ignored in
both 'hermes chat' and 'hermes gateway run'.
Bridge config.yaml -> env var in hermes_cli/main.py BEFORE setup_logging.
.env still wins (only set env when unset) — config.yaml is the fallback.
Regression tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_redact_config_bridge.py spawn
fresh subprocesses to verify:
- redact_secrets: false in config.yaml disables redaction
- default (key absent) leaves redaction enabled
- .env HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS=true overrides config.yaml
/model kimi-k2.6 on opencode-zen (or glm-5.1 on opencode-go) returned OpenCode's
website 404 HTML page when the user's persisted model.default was a Claude or
MiniMax model. The switched-to chat_completions request hit
https://opencode.ai/zen (or /zen/go) with no /v1 suffix.
Root cause: resolve_runtime_provider() computed api_mode from
model_cfg.get('default') instead of the model being requested. With a Claude
default, it resolved api_mode=anthropic_messages, stripped /v1 from base_url
(required for the Anthropic SDK), then switch_model()'s opencode_model_api_mode
override flipped api_mode back to chat_completions without restoring /v1.
Fix: thread an optional target_model kwarg through resolve_runtime_provider
and _resolve_runtime_from_pool_entry. When the caller is performing an explicit
mid-session model switch (i.e. switch_model()), the target model drives both
api_mode selection and the conditional /v1 strip. Other callers (CLI init,
gateway init, cron, ACP, aux client, delegate, account_usage, tui_gateway) pass
nothing and preserve the existing config-default behavior.
Regression tests added in test_model_switch_opencode_anthropic.py use the REAL
resolver (not a mock) to guard the exact Quentin-repro scenario. Existing tests
that mocked resolve_runtime_provider with 'lambda requested:' had their mock
signatures widened to '**kwargs' to accept the new kwarg.
When /model selects Custom but model.provider in YAML still reflects a prior provider, trust model.base_url only for loopback hosts or when provider is custom. Consult CUSTOM_BASE_URL before OpenRouter defaults (#14676).
OpenAI's OAuth token endpoint returns errors in a nested shape —
{"error": {"code": "refresh_token_reused", "message": "..."}} —
not the OAuth spec's flat {"error": "...", "error_description": "..."}.
The existing parser only handled the flat shape, so:
- `err.get("error")` returned a dict, the `isinstance(str)` guard
rejected it, and `code` stayed `"codex_refresh_failed"`.
- The dedicated `refresh_token_reused` branch (with its actionable
"re-run codex + hermes auth" message and `relogin_required=True`)
never fired.
- Users saw the generic "Codex token refresh failed with status 401"
when another Codex client (CLI, VS Code extension) had consumed
their single-use refresh token — giving no hint that re-auth was
required.
Parse both shapes, mapping OpenAI's nested `code`/`type` onto the
existing `code` variable so downstream branches (`refresh_token_reused`,
`invalid_grant`, etc.) fire correctly.
Add regression tests covering:
- nested `refresh_token_reused` → actionable message + relogin_required
- nested generic code → code + message surfaced
- flat OAuth-spec `invalid_grant` still handled (back-compat)
- unparseable body → generic fallback message, relogin_required=False

Google AI Studio's free tier (<= 250 req/day for gemini-2.5-flash) is
exhausted in a handful of agent turns, so the setup wizard now refuses
to wire up Gemini when the supplied key is on the free tier, and the
runtime 429 handler appends actionable billing guidance.
Setup-time probe (hermes_cli/main.py):
- `_model_flow_api_key_provider` fires one minimal generateContent call
when provider_id == 'gemini' and classifies the response as
free/paid/unknown via x-ratelimit-limit-requests-per-day header or
429 body containing 'free_tier'.
- Free -> print block message, refuse to save the provider, return.
- Paid -> 'Tier check: paid' and proceed.
- Unknown (network/auth error) -> 'could not verify', proceed anyway.
Runtime 429 handler (agent/gemini_native_adapter.py):
- `gemini_http_error` appends billing guidance when the 429 error body
mentions 'free_tier', catching users who bypass setup by putting
GOOGLE_API_KEY directly in .env.
Tests: 21 unit tests for the probe + error path, 4 tests for the
setup-flow block. All 67 existing gemini tests still pass.
Make the main-branch test suite pass again. Most failures were tests
still asserting old shapes after recent refactors; two were real source
bugs.
Source fixes:
- tools/mcp_tool.py: _kill_orphaned_mcp_children() slept 2s on every
shutdown even when no tracked PIDs existed, making test_shutdown_is_parallel
measure ~3s for 3 parallel 1s shutdowns. Early-return when pids is empty.
- hermes_cli/tips.py: tip 105 was 157 chars; corpus max is 150.
Test fixes (mostly stale mock targets / missing fixture fields):
- test_zombie_process_cleanup, test_agent_cache: patch run_agent.cleanup_vm
(the local name bound at import), not tools.terminal_tool.cleanup_vm.
- test_browser_camofox: patch tools.browser_camofox.load_config, not
hermes_cli.config.load_config (the source module, not the resolved one).
- test_flush_memories_codex._chat_response_with_memory_call: add
finish_reason, tool_call.id, tool_call.type so the chat_completions
transport normalizer doesn't AttributeError.
- test_concurrent_interrupt: polling_tool signature now accepts
messages= kwarg that _invoke_tool() passes through.
- test_minimax_provider: add _fallback_chain=[] to the __new__'d agent
so switch_model() doesn't AttributeError.
- test_skills_config: SKILLS_DIR MagicMock + .rglob stopped working
after the scanner switched to agent.skill_utils.iter_skill_index_files
(os.walk-based). Point SKILLS_DIR at a real tmp_path and patch
agent.skill_utils.get_external_skills_dirs.
- test_browser_cdp_tool: browser_cdp toolset was intentionally split into
'browser-cdp' (commit 96b0f3700) so its stricter check_fn doesn't gate
the whole browser toolset; test now expects 'browser-cdp'.
- test_registry: add tools.browser_dialog_tool to the expected
builtin-discovery set (PR #14540 added it).
- test_file_tools TestPatchHints: patch_tool surfaces hints as a '_hint'
key on the JSON payload, not inline '[Hint: ...' text.
- test_write_deny test_hermes_env: resolve .env via get_hermes_home() so
the path matches the profile-aware denylist under hermetic HERMES_HOME.
- test_checkpoint_manager test_falls_back_to_parent: guard the walk-up
so a stray /tmp/pyproject.toml on the host doesn't pick up /tmp as the
project root.
- test_quick_commands: set cli.session_id in the __new__'d CLI so the
alias-args path doesn't trip AttributeError when fuzzy-matching leaks
a skill command across xdist test distribution.
Keep Discord Copilot model switching responsive and current by refreshing picker data from the live catalog when possible, correcting the curated fallback list, and clearing stale controls before the switch completes.

Xiaomi's API (api.xiaomimimo.com) requires lowercase model IDs like
"mimo-v2.5-pro" but rejects mixed-case names like "MiMo-V2.5-Pro"
that users copy from marketing docs or the ProviderEntry description.
Add _LOWERCASE_MODEL_PROVIDERS set and apply .lower() to model names
for providers in this set (currently just xiaomi) after stripping the
provider prefix. This ensures any case variant in config.yaml is
normalized before hitting the API.
Other providers (minimax, zai, etc.) are NOT affected — their APIs
accept mixed case (e.g. MiniMax-M2.7).
Introduces a new plugin hook `pre_gateway_dispatch` fired once per
incoming MessageEvent in `_handle_message`, after the internal-event
guard but before the auth / pairing chain. Plugins may return a dict
to influence flow:
{"action": "skip", "reason": "..."} -> drop (no reply)
{"action": "rewrite", "text": "..."} -> replace event.text
{"action": "allow"} / None -> normal dispatch
Motivation: gateway-level message-flow patterns that don't fit cleanly
into any single adapter — e.g. listen-only group-chat windows (buffer
ambient messages, collapse on @mention), or human-handover silent
ingest (record messages while an owner handles the chat manually).
Today these require forking core; with this hook they can live in a
single profile-agnostic plugin.
Hook runs BEFORE auth so plugins can handle unauthorized senders
(e.g. customer-service handover ingest) without triggering the
pairing-code flow. Exceptions in plugin callbacks are caught and
logged; the first non-None action dict wins, remaining results are
ignored.
Includes:
- `VALID_HOOKS` entry + inline doc in `hermes_cli/plugins.py`
- Invocation block in `gateway/run.py::_handle_message`
- 5 new tests in `tests/gateway/test_pre_gateway_dispatch.py`
(skip, rewrite, allow, exception safety, internal-event bypass)
- 2 additional tests in `tests/hermes_cli/test_plugins.py`
- Table entry in `website/docs/user-guide/features/plugins.md`
Made-with: Cursor
- hermes_cli/auth.py: add _default_verify() with macOS Homebrew certifi
fallback (mirrors weixin 3a0ec1d93). Extend env var chain to include
REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE so one env var works across httpx + requests paths.
- agent/model_metadata.py: add _resolve_requests_verify() reading
HERMES_CA_BUNDLE / REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE / SSL_CERT_FILE in priority
order. Apply explicit verify= to all 6 requests.get callsites.
- Tests: 18 new unit tests + autouse platform pin on existing
TestResolveVerifyFallback to keep its "returns True" assertions
platform-independent.
Empirically verified against self-signed HTTPS server: requests honors
REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE only; httpx honors SSL_CERT_FILE only. Hermes now
honors all three everywhere.
Triggered by Discord reports — Nous OAuth SSL failure on macOS
Homebrew Python; custom provider self-signed cert ignored despite
REQUESTS_CA_BUNDLE set in env.
Wrap the existing version label in the welcome-banner panel title
('Hermes Agent v… · upstream … · local …') with an OSC-8 terminal
hyperlink pointing at the latest git tag's GitHub release page
(https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/releases/tag/<tag>).
Clickable in modern terminals (iTerm2, WezTerm, Windows Terminal,
GNOME Terminal, Kitty, etc.); degrades to plain text on terminals
without OSC-8 support. No new line added to the banner.
New get_latest_release_tag() helper runs 'git describe --tags
--abbrev=0' in the Hermes checkout (3s timeout, per-process cache,
silent fallback for non-git/pip installs and forks without tags).
The TUI had drifted from the CLI's voice model in two ways:
- /voice on was lighting up the microphone immediately and Ctrl+B was
interpreted as a mode toggle. The CLI separates the two: /voice on
just flips the umbrella bit, recording only starts once the user
presses Ctrl+B, which also sets _voice_continuous so the VAD loop
auto-restarts until the user presses Ctrl+B again or three silent
cycles pass.
- /voice tts was missing entirely, so users couldn't turn agent reply
speech on/off from inside the TUI.
This commit brings the TUI to parity.
Python
- hermes_cli/voice.py: continuous-mode API (start_continuous,
stop_continuous, is_continuous_active) layered on the existing PTT
wrappers. The silence callback transcribes, fires on_transcript,
tracks consecutive no-speech cycles, and auto-restarts — mirroring
cli.py:_voice_stop_and_transcribe + _restart_recording.
- tui_gateway/server.py:
- voice.toggle now supports on / off / tts / status. The umbrella
bit lives in HERMES_VOICE + display.voice_enabled; tts lives in
HERMES_VOICE_TTS + display.voice_tts. /voice off also tears down
any active continuous loop so a toggle-off really releases the
microphone.
- voice.record start/stop now drives start_continuous/stop_continuous.
start is refused with a clear error when the mode is off, matching
cli.py:handle_voice_record's early return on `not _voice_mode`.
- New voice.transcript / voice.status events emit through
_voice_emit (remembers the sid that last enabled the mode so
events land in the right session).
TypeScript
- gatewayTypes.ts: voice.status + voice.transcript event
discriminants; VoiceToggleResponse gains tts; VoiceRecordResponse
gains status for the new "started/stopped" responses.
- interfaces.ts: GatewayEventHandlerContext gains composer.setInput +
submission.submitRef + voice.{setRecording, setProcessing,
setVoiceEnabled}; InputHandlerContext.voice gains enabled +
setVoiceEnabled for the mode-aware Ctrl+B handler.
- createGatewayEventHandler.ts: voice.status drives REC/STT badges;
voice.transcript auto-submits when the composer is empty (CLI
_pending_input.put parity) and appends when a draft is in flight.
no_speech_limit flips voice off + sys line.
- useInputHandlers.ts: Ctrl+B now calls voice.record (start/stop),
not voice.toggle, and nudges the user with a sys line when the
mode is off instead of silently flipping it on.
- useMainApp.ts: wires the new event-handler context fields.
- slash/commands/session.ts: /voice handles on / off / tts / status
with CLI-matching output ("voice: mode on · tts off").
Backward compat preserved for voice.record (was always PTT shape;
gateway still honours start/stop with mode-gating added).
tui_gateway/server.py:3486/3491/3509 imports start_recording,
stop_and_transcribe, and speak_text from hermes_cli.voice, but the
module never existed (not in git history — never shipped, never
deleted). Every voice.record / voice.tts RPC call hit the ImportError
branch and the TUI surfaced it as "voice module not available — install
audio dependencies" even on boxes with sounddevice / faster-whisper /
numpy installed.
Adds a thin wrapper on top of tools.voice_mode (recording +
transcription) and tools.tts_tool (text-to-speech):
- start_recording() — idempotent; stores the active AudioRecorder in a
module-global guarded by a Lock so repeat Ctrl+B presses don't fight
over the mic.
- stop_and_transcribe() — returns None for no-op / no-speech /
Whisper-hallucination cases so the TUI's existing "no speech detected"
path keeps working unchanged.
- speak_text(text) — lazily imports tts_tool (optional provider SDKs
stay unloaded until the first /voice tts call), parses the tool's
JSON result, and plays the audio via play_audio_file.
Paired with the Ctrl+B keybinding fix in the prior commit, the TUI
voice pipeline now works end-to-end for the first time.
Cron now resolves its toolset from the same per-platform config the
gateway uses — `_get_platform_tools(cfg, 'cron')` — instead of blindly
loading every default toolset. Existing cron jobs without a per-job
override automatically lose `moa`, `homeassistant`, and `rl` (the
`_DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS` set), which stops the "surprise $4.63
mixture_of_agents run" class of bug (Norbert, Discord).
Precedence inside `run_job`:
1. per-job `enabled_toolsets` (PR #14767 / #6130) — wins if set
2. `_get_platform_tools(cfg, 'cron')` — new, the blanket gate
3. `None` fallback (legacy) — only on resolver exception
Changes:
- hermes_cli/platforms.py: register 'cron' with default_toolset
'hermes-cron'
- toolsets.py: add 'hermes-cron' toolset (mirrors 'hermes-cli';
`_get_platform_tools` then filters via `_DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS`)
- cron/scheduler.py: add `_resolve_cron_enabled_toolsets(job, cfg)`,
call it at the `AIAgent(...)` kwargs site
- tests/cron/test_scheduler.py: replace the 'None when not set' test
(outdated contract) with an invariant ('moa not in default cron
toolset') + new per-job-wins precedence test
- tests/hermes_cli/test_tools_config.py: mark 'cron' as non-messaging
in the gateway-toolset-coverage test
Themes and plugins can now pull off arbitrary dashboard reskins (cockpit
HUD, retro terminal, etc.) without touching core code.
Themes gain four new fields:
- layoutVariant: standard | cockpit | tiled — shell layout selector
- assets: {bg, hero, logo, crest, sidebar, header, custom: {...}} —
artwork URLs exposed as --theme-asset-* CSS vars
- customCSS: raw CSS injected as a scoped <style> tag on theme apply
(32 KiB cap, cleaned up on theme switch)
- componentStyles: per-component CSS-var overrides (clipPath,
borderImage, background, boxShadow, ...) for card/header/sidebar/
backdrop/tab/progress/badge/footer/page
Plugin manifests gain three new fields:
- tab.override: replaces a built-in route instead of adding a tab
- tab.hidden: register component + slots without adding a nav entry
- slots: declares shell slots the plugin populates
10 named shell slots: backdrop, header-left/right/banner, sidebar,
pre-main, post-main, footer-left/right, overlay. Plugins register via
window.__HERMES_PLUGINS__.registerSlot(name, slot, Component). A
<PluginSlot> React helper is exported on the plugin SDK.
Ships a full demo at plugins/strike-freedom-cockpit/ — theme YAML +
slot-only plugin that reproduces a Gundam cockpit dashboard: MS-STATUS
sidebar with live telemetry, COMPASS crest in header, notched card
corners via componentStyles, scanline overlay via customCSS, gold/cyan
palette, Orbitron typography.
Validation:
- 15 new tests in test_web_server.py covering every extended field
- tests/hermes_cli/: 2615 passed (3 pre-existing unrelated failures)
- tsc -b --noEmit: clean
- vite build: 418 kB bundle, ~2 kB delta for slots/theme extensions

cmd_update no longer SIGKILLs in-flight agent runs, and users get
'still working' status every 3 min instead of 10. Two long-standing
sources of '@user — agent gives up mid-task' reports on Telegram and
other gateways.
Drain-aware update:
- New helper hermes_cli.gateway._graceful_restart_via_sigusr1(pid,
drain_timeout) sends SIGUSR1 to the gateway and polls os.kill(pid,
0) until the process exits or the budget expires.
- cmd_update's systemd loop now reads MainPID via 'systemctl show
--property=MainPID --value' and tries the graceful path first. The
gateway's existing SIGUSR1 handler -> request_restart(via_service=
True) -> drain -> exit(75) is wired in gateway/run.py and is
respawned by systemd's Restart=on-failure (and the explicit
RestartForceExitStatus=75 on newer units).
- Falls back to 'systemctl restart' when MainPID is unknown, the
drain budget elapses, or the unit doesn't respawn after exit (older
units missing Restart=on-failure). Old install behavior preserved.
- Drain budget = max(restart_drain_timeout, 30s) + 15s margin so the
drain loop in run_agent + final exit have room before fallback
fires. Composes with #14728's tool-subprocess reaping.
Notification interval:
- agent.gateway_notify_interval default 600 -> 180.
- HERMES_AGENT_NOTIFY_INTERVAL env-var fallback in gateway/run.py
matched.
- 9-minute weak-model spinning runs now ping at 3 min and 6 min
instead of 27 seconds before completion, removing the 'is the bot
dead?' reflex that drives gateway-restart cycles.
Tests:
- Two new tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_update_gateway_restart.py:
one asserts SIGUSR1 is sent and 'systemctl restart' is NOT called
when MainPID is known and the helper succeeds; one asserts the
fallback fires when the helper returns False.
- E2E: spawned detached bash processes confirm the helper returns
True on SIGUSR1-handling exit (~0.5s) and False on SIGUSR1-ignoring
processes (timeout). Verified non-existent PID and pid=0 edge cases.
- 41/41 in test_update_gateway_restart.py (was 39, +2 new).
- 154/154 in shutdown-related suites including #14728's new tests.
Reported by @GeoffWellman and @ANT_1515 on X.
Closes#8202.
Root cause: stop() reclaimed tool-call bash/sleep children only at the
very end of the shutdown sequence — after a 60s drain, 5s interrupt
grace, and per-adapter disconnect. Under systemd (TimeoutStopSec bounded
by drain_timeout), that meant the cgroup SIGKILL escalation fired first,
and systemd reaped the bash/sleep children instead of us.
Fix:
- Extract tool-subprocess cleanup into a local helper
_kill_tool_subprocesses() in _stop_impl().
- Invoke it eagerly right after _interrupt_running_agents() on the
drain-timeout path, before adapter disconnect.
- Keep the existing catch-all call at the end for the graceful path
and defense in depth against mid-teardown respawns.
- Bump generated systemd unit TimeoutStopSec to drain_timeout + 30s
so cleanup + disconnect + DB close has headroom above the drain
budget, matching the 'subprocess timeout > TimeoutStopSec + margin'
rule from the skill.
Tests:
- New: test_gateway_stop_kills_tool_subprocesses_before_adapter_disconnect_on_timeout
asserts kill_all() runs before disconnect() when drain times out.
- New: test_gateway_stop_kills_tool_subprocesses_on_graceful_path
guards that the final catch-all still fires when drain succeeds
(regression guard against accidental removal during refactor).
- Updated: existing systemd unit generator tests expect TimeoutStopSec=90
(= 60s drain + 30s headroom) with explanatory comment.
Dashboard themes now control typography and layout, not just colors.
Each built-in theme picks its own fonts, base size, radius, and density
so switching produces visible changes beyond hue.
Schema additions (per theme):
- typography — fontSans, fontMono, fontDisplay, fontUrl, baseSize,
lineHeight, letterSpacing. fontUrl is injected as <link> on switch
so Google/Bunny/self-hosted stylesheets all work.
- layout — radius (any CSS length) and density
(compact | comfortable | spacious, multiplies Tailwind spacing).
- colorOverrides (optional) — pin individual shadcn tokens that would
otherwise derive from the palette.
Built-in themes are now distinct beyond palette:
- default — system stack, 15px, 0.5rem radius, comfortable
- midnight — Inter + JetBrains Mono, 14px, 0.75rem, comfortable
- ember — Spectral (serif) + IBM Plex Mono, 15px, 0.25rem
- mono — IBM Plex Sans + Mono, 13px, 0 radius, compact

Also fixes two bugs:
1. Custom user themes silently fell back to default. ThemeProvider
only applied BUILTIN_THEMES[name], so YAML files in
~/.hermes/dashboard-themes/ showed in the picker but did nothing.
Server now ships the full normalised definition; client applies it.
2. Docs documented a 21-token flat colors schema that never matched
the code (applyPalette reads a 3-layer palette). Rewrote the
Themes section against the actual shape.
Implementation:
- web/src/themes/types.ts: extend DashboardTheme with typography,
layout, colorOverrides; ThemeListEntry carries optional definition.
- web/src/themes/presets.ts: 6 built-ins with distinct typography+layout.
- web/src/themes/context.tsx: applyTheme() writes palette+typography+
layout+overrides as CSS vars, injects fontUrl stylesheet, fixes the
fallback-to-default bug via resolveTheme(name).
- web/src/index.css: html/body/code read the new theme-font vars;
--radius-sm/md/lg/xl derive from --theme-radius; --spacing scales
with --theme-spacing-mul so Tailwind utilities shift with density.
- hermes_cli/web_server.py: _normalise_theme_definition() parses loose
YAML (bare hex strings, partial blocks) into the canonical wire
shape; /api/dashboard/themes ships full definitions for user themes.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py: 16 new tests covering the
normaliser and discovery (rejection cases, clamping, defaults).
- website/docs/user-guide/features/web-dashboard.md: rewrite Themes
section with real schema, per-model tables, full YAML example.
## Merged
Adds MiMo v2.5-pro and v2.5 support to Xiaomi native provider, OpenCode Go, and setup wizard.
### Changes
- Context lengths: added v2.5-pro (1M) and v2.5 (1M), corrected existing MiMo entries to exact values (262144)
- Provider lists: xiaomi, opencode-go, setup wizard
- Vision: upgraded from mimo-v2-omni to mimo-v2.5 (omnimodal)
- Config description updated for XIAOMI_API_KEY
- Tests updated for new vision model preference
### Verification
- 4322 tests passed, 0 new regressions
- Live API tested on Xiaomi portal: basic, reasoning, tool calling, multi-tool, file ops, system prompt, vision — all pass
- Self-review found and fixed 2 issues (redundant vision check, stale HuggingFace context length)
On fresh RHEL/Debian SSH sessions without linger, `systemctl --user
start hermes-gateway` fails with 'Failed to connect to bus: No medium
found' because /run/user/$UID/bus doesn't exist. Setup previously
showed a raw CalledProcessError and continued claiming success, so the
gateway never actually started.
systemd_start() and systemd_restart() now call _preflight_user_systemd()
for the user scope first:
- Bus socket already there → no-op (desktop / linger-enabled servers)
- Linger off → try loginctl enable-linger (works when polkit permits,
needs sudo otherwise), wait for socket
- Still unreachable → raise UserSystemdUnavailableError with a clean
remediation message pointing to sudo loginctl + hermes gateway run
as the foreground fallback
Setup's start/restart handlers and gateway_command() catch the new
exception and render the multi-line guidance instead of a traceback.
Multiple custom_providers entries sharing the same base_url + api_key
are now grouped into a single picker row. A local Ollama host with
per-model display names ("Ollama — GLM 5.1", "Ollama — Qwen3-coder",
"Ollama — Kimi K2", "Ollama — MiniMax M2.7") previously produced four
near-duplicate picker rows that differed only by suffix; now it appears
as one "Ollama" row with four models.
Key changes:
- Grouping key changed from slug-by-name to (base_url, api_key). Names
frequently differ per model while the endpoint stays the same.
- When the grouped endpoint matches current_base_url, the row's slug is
set to current_provider so picker-driven switches route through the
live credential pipeline (no re-resolution needed).
- Per-model suffix is stripped from the display name ("Ollama — X" →
"Ollama") via em-dash / " - " separators.
- Two groups with different api_keys at the same base_url (or otherwise
colliding on cleaned name) are disambiguated with a numeric suffix
(custom:openai, custom:openai-2) so both stay visible.
- current_base_url parameter plumbed through both gateway call sites.
Existing #8216, #11499, #13509 regressions covered (dict/list shapes
of models:, section-3/section-4 dedup, normalized list-format entries).
Salvaged from @davidvv's PR #9210 — the underlying code had diverged
~1400 commits since that PR was opened, so this is a reconstruction of
the same approach on current main rather than a clean cherry-pick.
Authorship preserved via --author on this commit.
Closes#9210
_normalize_custom_provider_entry silently drops the models field when it's
a list. Hand-edited configs (and the shape used by older Hermes versions)
still write models as a plain list of ids, so after the normalize pass the
entry reaches list_authenticated_providers() with no models and /model
shows the provider with (0) models — even though the underlying picker
code handles lists fine.
Convert list-format models into the empty-value dict shape the rest of
the pipeline already expects. Dict-format entries keep passing through
unchanged.
Repro (before the fix):
custom_providers:
- name: acme
base_url: https://api.example.com/v1
models: [foo, bar, baz]
/model shows "acme (0)"; bypassing normalize in list_authenticated_providers
returns three models, confirming the drop happens in normalize.
Adds four unit tests covering list→dict conversion, dict pass-through,
filtering of empty/non-string entries, and the empty-list case.
Port from openai/codex#18646.
Adds two flags to 'hermes chat' that fully isolate a run from user-level
configuration and rules:
* --ignore-user-config: skip ~/.hermes/config.yaml and fall back to
built-in defaults. Credentials in .env are still loaded so the agent
can actually call a provider.
* --ignore-rules: skip auto-injection of AGENTS.md, SOUL.md,
.cursorrules, and persistent memory (maps to AIAgent(skip_context_files=True,
skip_memory=True)).
Primary use cases:
- Reproducible CI runs that should not pick up developer-local config
- Third-party integrations (e.g. Chronicle in Codex) that bring their
own config and don't want user preferences leaking in
- Bug-report reproduction without the reporter's personal overrides
- Debugging: bisect 'was it my config?' vs 'real bug' in one command
Both flags are registered on the parent parser AND the 'chat' subparser
(with argparse.SUPPRESS on the subparser to avoid overwriting the parent
value when the flag is placed before the subcommand, matching the
existing --yolo/--worktree/--pass-session-id pattern).
Env vars HERMES_IGNORE_USER_CONFIG=1 and HERMES_IGNORE_RULES=1 are set
by cmd_chat BEFORE 'from cli import main' runs, which is critical
because cli.py evaluates CLI_CONFIG = load_cli_config() at module import
time. The cli.py / hermes_cli.config.load_cli_config() function checks
the env var and skips ~/.hermes/config.yaml when set.
Tests: 11 new tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_ignore_user_config_flags.py
covering the env gate, constructor wiring, cmd_chat simulation, and
argparse flag registration. All pass; existing hermes_cli + cli suites
unaffected (3005 pass, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures).
New and newer models from models.dev now surface automatically in
/model (both hermes model CLI and the gateway Telegram/Discord picker)
for a curated set of secondary providers — no Hermes release required
when the registry publishes a new model.
Primary user-visible fix: on OpenCode Go, typing '/model mimo-v2.5-pro'
no longer silently fuzzy-corrects to 'mimo-v2-pro'. The exact match
against the merged models.dev catalog wins.
Scope (opt-in frozenset _MODELS_DEV_PREFERRED in hermes_cli/models.py):
opencode-go, opencode-zen, deepseek, kilocode, fireworks, mistral,
togetherai, cohere, perplexity, groq, nvidia, huggingface, zai,
gemini, google.
Explicitly NOT merged:
- openrouter and nous (never): curated list is already a hand-picked
subset / Portal is source of truth.
- xai, xiaomi, minimax, minimax-cn, kimi-coding, kimi-coding-cn,
alibaba, qwen-oauth (per-project decision to keep curated-only).
- providers with dedicated live-endpoint paths (copilot, anthropic,
ai-gateway, ollama-cloud, custom, stepfun, openai-codex) — those
paths already handle freshness themselves.
Changes:
- hermes_cli/models.py: add _MODELS_DEV_PREFERRED + _merge_with_models_dev
helper. provider_model_ids() branches on the set at its curated-fallback
return. Merge is models.dev-first, curated-only extras appended,
case-insensitive dedup, graceful fallback when models.dev is offline.
- hermes_cli/model_switch.py: list_authenticated_providers() calls the
same merge in both its code paths (PROVIDER_TO_MODELS_DEV loop +
HERMES_OVERLAYS loop). Picker AND validation-fallback both see
fresh entries.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_models_dev_preferred_merge.py (new): 13 tests —
merge-helper unit tests (empty/raise/order/dedup), opencode-go/zen
behavior, openrouter+nous explicitly guarded from merge.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_opencode_go_in_model_list.py: converted from
snapshot-style assertion to a behavior-based floor check, so it
doesn't break when models.dev publishes additional opencode-go
entries.
Addresses a report from @pfanis via Telegram: newer Xiaomi variants
on OpenCode Go weren't appearing in the /model picker, and /model
was silently routing requests for new variants to older ones.
Plugin slash commands now surface as first-class commands in every gateway
enumerator — Discord native slash picker, Telegram BotCommand menu, Slack
/hermes subcommand map — without a separate per-platform plugin API.
The existing 'command:<name>' gateway hook gains a decision protocol via
HookRegistry.emit_collect(): handlers that return a dict with
{'decision': 'deny'|'handled'|'rewrite'|'allow'} can intercept slash
command dispatch before core handling runs, unifying what would otherwise
have been a parallel 'pre_gateway_command' hook surface.
Changes:
- gateway/hooks.py: add HookRegistry.emit_collect() that fires the same
handler set as emit() but collects non-None return values. Backward
compatible — fire-and-forget telemetry hooks still work via emit().
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: add optional 'args_hint' param to
register_command() so plugins can opt into argument-aware native UI
registration (Discord arg picker, future platforms).
- hermes_cli/commands.py: add _iter_plugin_command_entries() helper and
merge plugin commands into telegram_bot_commands() and
slack_subcommand_map(). New is_gateway_known_command() recognizes both
built-in and plugin commands so the gateway hook fires for either.
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: extract _build_auto_slash_command helper
from the COMMAND_REGISTRY auto-register loop and reuse it for
plugin-registered commands. Built-in name conflicts are skipped.
- gateway/run.py: before normal slash dispatch, call emit_collect on
command:<canonical> and honor deny/handled/rewrite/allow decisions.
Hook now fires for plugin commands too.
- scripts/release.py: AUTHOR_MAP entry for @Magaav.
- Tests: emit_collect semantics, plugin command surfacing per platform,
decision protocol (deny/handled/rewrite/allow + non-dict tolerance),
Discord plugin auto-registration + conflict skipping, is_gateway_known_command.
Salvaged from #14131 (@Magaav). Original PR added a parallel
'pre_gateway_command' hook and a platform-keyed plugin command
registry; this re-implementation reuses the existing 'command:<name>'
hook and treats plugin commands as platform-agnostic so the same
capability reaches Telegram and Slack without new API surface.

Copilot on #14138 flagged that the share report says '(file not found)'
when the log exists but is empty (either because the primary is empty
and no .1 rotation exists, or in the rare race where the file is
truncated between _resolve_log_path() and stat()).
- Split _primary_log_path() out of _resolve_log_path so both can share
the LOG_FILES/home math without duplication.
- _capture_log_snapshot now reports '(file empty)' when the primary
path exists on disk with zero bytes, and keeps '(file not found)'
for the truly-missing case.
Tests: rename test_returns_none_for_empty → test_empty_primary_reports_file_empty
with the new assertion, plus a race-path test that monkeypatches
_resolve_log_path to exercise the size==0 branch directly.
Drop rebased test assumptions about theme-mode helpers removed on main and keep the status bar skin integration aligned with the current skin engine model.
Route prompt_toolkit status bar colors through the skin engine so /skin updates the status bar alongside the rest of the interactive TUI.
Add regression coverage for the new status bar style override keys and CLI style composition.
These thin wrappers around _capture_log_snapshot had zero production
callers after the snapshot refactor — run_debug_share uses snapshots
directly and collect_debug_report captures internally. The wrappers
also caused a performance regression: _read_log_tail read up to 512KB
and built full_text just to return tail_text.
Remove both wrappers and migrate TestReadFullLog → TestCaptureLogSnapshot
to test _capture_log_snapshot directly. Same coverage, tests the real
API instead of dead indirection.
Add missing AUTHOR_MAP entry for taosiyuan163 whose truncation boundary
fix was adapted into _capture_log_snapshot().
Add regression tests proving: line-boundary truncation keeps the full
first line, mid-line truncation correctly drops the partial fragment.
* fix(plugins): auto-coerce user-installed memory plugins to kind=exclusive
User-installed memory provider plugins at $HERMES_HOME/plugins/<name>/
were being dispatched to the general PluginManager, which has no
register_memory_provider method on PluginContext. Every startup logged:
Failed to load plugin 'mempalace': 'PluginContext' object has no
attribute 'register_memory_provider'
Bundled memory providers were already skipped via skip_names={memory,
context_engine} in discover_and_load, but user-installed ones weren't.
Fix: _parse_manifest now scans the plugin's __init__.py source for
'register_memory_provider' or 'MemoryProvider' (same heuristic as
plugins/memory/__init__.py:_is_memory_provider_dir) and auto-coerces
kind to 'exclusive' when the manifest didn't declare one explicitly.
This routes the plugin to plugins/memory discovery instead of the
general loader.
The escape hatch: if a manifest explicitly declares kind: standalone,
the heuristic doesn't override it.
Reported by Uncle HODL on Discord.
* fix(nous): actionable CLI message when Nous 401 refresh fails
Mirrors the Anthropic 401 diagnostic pattern. When Nous returns 401
and the credential refresh (_try_refresh_nous_client_credentials)
also fails, the user used to see only the raw APIError. Now prints:
🔐 Nous 401 — Portal authentication failed.
Response: <truncated body>
Most likely: Portal OAuth expired, account out of credits, or
agent key revoked.
Troubleshooting:
• Re-authenticate: hermes login --provider nous
• Check credits / billing: https://portal.nousresearch.com
• Verify stored credentials: $HERMES_HOME/auth.json
• Switch providers temporarily: /model <model> --provider openrouter
Addresses the common 'my hermes model hangs' pattern where the user's
Portal OAuth expired and the CLI gave no hint about the next step.
