curl is a ubiquitous tool both for users running ad-hoc commands inside
the container (debugging, health checks, quick HTTP probes) and for
agent workflows — many bundled skills and hub skills lean on curl for
HTTP calls, API exploration, and installer bootstrapping. Its absence
causes silent workflow failures with "curl: command not found" until
the user manually apt-installs it.
Add curl to the single apt-get install layer alongside the other base
utilities (build-essential, nodejs, git, openssh-client, etc.) so it
ships in the image with zero extra layers and negligible size impact
(~400 KB).
- Dockerfile: add curl to the apt-get install list
check_for_updates() looked at __file__.parent.parent for a .git dir to
diff against origin/main. A nix-built hermes lives in /nix/store with
no .git there, so the check fell through to whatever editable-install
dev checkout last populated ~/.hermes/.update_check, producing stale
"X commits behind" warnings right after a fresh `nix run --refresh`.
Embed the locked flake rev into the wrapper as HERMES_REVISION (only
on
clean builds — dirty refs don't represent any upstream commit). When
set, banner.py compares it to upstream main via `git ls-remote`
instead
of inspecting a local checkout, and the cache key includes the rev so
nix updates invalidate immediately. Without local history we can't
count commits, so the message is a plain "update available" with no
suggested command — nix users may install via `nix run`, profile,
system flake, or home-manager, and we don't know which.
Also bump web/package-lock.json npmDepsHash via `nix run
.#fix-lockfiles`.
* fix(tui): offload manual compaction RPC
Route TUI session compression through the existing long-handler pool so slow compaction does not block other gateway RPCs.
* fix(tui): show compaction progress immediately
Print a local status line before the compress RPC starts so slow manual compaction does not look like a no-op.
* feat(tui): rich /compress feedback parity with CLI
Show pre-compaction message count and rough token estimate immediately, emit a status update so the bottom bar reflects ongoing compaction, and report a multi-line summary (headline + token delta + optional note) using the shared summarize_manual_compression helper.
* fix(tui): show live compaction estimate in transcript
Mirror compression progress status into the transcript so users see the backend message count and token estimate while /compress is still running.
* fix(tui): single live compaction line with spinner glyph
Drop the redundant local "compressing context..." placeholder and prefix the live backend status line with a braille spinner glyph so /compress reads as a single in-progress row.
* fix(tui): address review nits on /compress feedback
Reuse the precomputed token estimate inside _compress_session_history so the gateway does not redo the O(n) work while holding history_lock, keep the status bar pinned during long manual compactions instead of auto-restoring after 4s, and drop the redundant noop bullet that doubled with the system role glyph.
* fix(tui): release history_lock during compaction LLM call
Move the snapshot/commit pattern into _compress_session_history so the lock is held only across the in-memory bookkeeping, not during agent._compress_context. Also emit a final neutral status update from session.compress so the pinned compressing indicator clears even on errors.
* fix(tui): rebuild prompt cleanly + sync session_key after compress
Pass system_message=None so AIAgent._compress_context rebuilds the system prompt without nesting the cached identity block. Reuse the handler's pre-snapshotted history inside _compress_session_history to avoid a second O(n) copy under the lock. After compaction, when AIAgent._compress_context rotates session_id, sync the gateway session_key, migrate approval notify + yolo state, restart the slash worker, and clear the stale pending title. Mirrors HermesCLI._manual_compress.
* Avoid /compress lock re-entry in slash side effects.
Stop pre-locking history before _compress_session_history in slash command mirroring, keep session-key sync parity with manual compression, and add a regression test that asserts /compress is invoked without holding history_lock.
* fix(tui): word-wrap composer input
Wrap composer input at word boundaries and anchor the good-vibes heart to the full composer row.
* test(tui): cover composer word wrap edge
Add regression coverage for moving the next word instead of splitting it at the composer edge.
* fix(tui): honor launch toolsets
Carry chat --toolsets through the TUI launcher so TUI sessions use the same per-session tool scope as the classic CLI.
* fix(tui): parse top-level toolsets flag
Allow top-level hermes --tui --toolsets to reach the implicit chat session, matching chat subcommand behavior.
* fix(tui): validate launch toolsets
Filter invalid HERMES_TUI_TOOLSETS entries and fall back to configured CLI toolsets when the override contains no valid toolsets.
* fix(tui): avoid config load for builtin toolsets
Honor built-in HERMES_TUI_TOOLSETS values before loading config and treat all/* as the all-toolsets sentinel.
* fix(cli): honor toolsets in oneshot mode
Forward top-level --toolsets into oneshot agent construction so the flag is not silently ignored outside the TUI path.
* fix(cli): validate oneshot toolsets
Reject invalid-only oneshot toolset overrides before output redirection and clarify TUI fallback warnings.
* fix(cli): preserve all-toolsets sentinel
Map explicit all/* oneshot toolset overrides to the all-toolsets sentinel and replace locals() checks in TUI toolset loading.
* fix(cli): warn on extra all-toolset entries
Warn when all/* toolset overrides include additional ignored entries so typos are still visible.
* fix(tui): honor plugin toolset overrides
Discover plugin toolsets before rejecting unresolved explicit toolset overrides and read raw config for MCP name validation.
* fix(tui): reuse toolset argument normalizer
Share top-level TUI toolset argument parsing with the oneshot path to avoid duplicate normalization logic.
* fix(cli): reject disabled mcp toolsets
Validate explicit toolset overrides against enabled MCP servers only and clarify top-level toolset flag help.
* fix(cli): distinguish disabled mcp from unknown toolsets
Report disabled MCP servers separately from unknown toolset entries and stub plugin discovery in invalid-name tests for determinism.
shutil.copytree from default ~/.hermes duplicated ~/.hermes/profiles into
the new profile, causing nested profiles/.../profiles/... and huge disk use.
Match export behavior (_DEFAULT_EXPORT_EXCLUDE_ROOT) by ignoring the sibling

Intended placement per PR #17610 discussion — comfyui belongs in
skills/creative/ alongside other creative built-ins (touchdesigner-mcp,
pretext, sketch), not in optional-skills/.
Pure directory rename, no content changes. History preserved via git mv.
The skip_pre_tool_call_hook flag was added to prevent double-firing of
pre_tool_call when run_agent._invoke_tool pre-checks for a block
directive and then dispatches via handle_function_call. But the
implementation added an else: branch that fired invoke_hook again for
'observers', without noticing that get_pre_tool_call_block_message() in
hermes_cli.plugins already fires invoke_hook('pre_tool_call', ...) as
part of its block-directive poll.
Result: every tool call ran through the run_agent loop fired the hook
twice — reported by community users whose observer / audit plugins
logged each tool invocation twice with identical timestamps.
Fix: delete the else: branch. The single-fire contract is now:
- skip=False (direct handle_function_call): hook fires once inside
get_pre_tool_call_block_message().
- skip=True (run_agent._invoke_tool path): caller fires the hook
once via get_pre_tool_call_block_message(); handle_function_call
must not fire it again.
Tightened the existing skip-flag test (renamed to
test_skip_flag_prevents_double_fire) to assert pre_tool_call fires
zero times when skip=True, and added
test_run_agent_pattern_fires_pre_tool_call_exactly_once to lock in
end-to-end that the full block-check + dispatch sequence fires the
hook exactly once.
Adds Step 0 'Ask Local vs Cloud' as the very first onboarding step, with a
scripted question that spells out the hardware requirements for local
(6 GB VRAM NVIDIA, ROCm AMD on Linux, or M1+ Mac with 16 GB unified)
and routes Cloud users straight to Path A without a hardware check.
Hardware check becomes Step 1, run only when the user picked local.
Layers a programmatic hardware-feasibility check on top of the v4 skill
so the agent doesn't silently push users toward a local install they
can't actually run. The official comfy-cli supports --nvidia / --amd /
--m-series / --cpu, but has no guard against "4 GB laptop GPU on SDXL"
or "Intel Mac falling back to CPU" — both route to comfy-cli paths in
the original table and then fail on first workflow.
- scripts/hardware_check.py: detect OS/arch/GPU (NVIDIA nvidia-smi,
AMD rocm-smi, Apple M1+ via arm64+sysctl, Intel Arc via clinfo),
VRAM, system/unified RAM. Emits JSON
{verdict: ok|marginal|cloud, recommended_install_path, comfy_cli_flag}
with practical thresholds: discrete GPU >=6 GB VRAM minimum,
Apple Silicon >=16 GB unified memory minimum, Intel Mac -> cloud,
no accelerator -> cloud. comfy_cli_flag maps directly to
`comfy install` so the agent can stitch the whole flow together.
- scripts/comfyui_setup.sh: runs hardware_check.py first when no
explicit flag is passed. If verdict=cloud, refuses to install
locally, prints Comfy Cloud URL + an override command, exits 2.
Otherwise auto-selects the right --nvidia/--amd/--m-series flag
for `comfy install`. Surfaces marginal-verdict notes to the user.
- SKILL.md Setup & Onboarding: adds mandatory Step 0 "Check If This
Machine Can Run ComfyUI Locally" ahead of the Path A-E selection.
Documents the verdict thresholds inline, ties verdict + comfy_cli_flag
to the install paths, and updates the path-choice table so
"verdict: cloud" is the first row. Quick-Start "Detect Environment"
block extended to include the hardware check. Verification
checklist gains a hardware-check gate.
- Frontmatter setup.help rewritten to point at hardware_check.py
first. Version bumped 4.0.0 -> 4.1.0.
Capture the reusable layout and animation lessons from the advanced Pretext demo so the skill teaches measured obstacle fields, morphing geometry, and polished browser examples.
Cron is a built-in Hermes feature (CLI `hermes cron`, `cronjob` agent
tool, gateway ticker, scheduler in cron/scheduler.py) but croniter has
been gated behind the [cron] optional extra. Users who do a plain
`pip install hermes-agent` can create jobs via /cron but any recurring
cron schedule silently returns next_run_at=None (HAS_CRONITER=False),
which then gets wrapped into a 'state=error' message only after a tick.
Move croniter into core dependencies so scheduled jobs work out of the
box on any install path. The [cron] extra is kept as an empty
passthrough so existing `pip install hermes-agent[cron]` installs and
the [all]/[termux] extras continue to resolve.
Also update the now-stale user-facing error message in
`compute_next_run()` that still tells users to install `hermes-agent[cron]`.
Salvaged from #17234 (authored by @txbxxx) with a corrected premise:
the original PR claimed [cron] wasn't in [all], but it is (pyproject.toml
line 112). The real UX problem is the plain no-extras install path,
which this fix addresses.
Add a dedicated 'Pinning a skill' section that covers both gating
layers — curator auto-transitions AND the agent's skill_manage tool
— so users know what the flag actually protects against after
PR #17562. Updates the one-line claim in 'How it runs' to cross-link
the new section instead of only mentioning auto-transitions.
Extend curator's pin flag from 'skip auto-transitions' to 'no agent
edits at all'. All five skill_manage mutation actions (edit, patch,
delete, write_file, remove_file) now refuse pinned skills with a
message pointing the user at `hermes curator unpin <name>`.
Motivation: pin used to only stop the curator's own maintenance pass
from touching a skill. Nothing prevented the main agent from editing
or deleting a pinned skill via skill_manage in-session. This gives
users a hard fence against unwanted agent edits — same semantics as
curator pinning, extended to the write tool.
Create is unaffected (you can't pin a name that doesn't exist yet,
and name collisions already error out). Broken sidecars fail open
rather than lock the agent out.
The schema description advertises the new refusal so models know
not to route around it with rename/recreate tricks.
Skill catalog pages (bundled/optional) were drowning out real user-guide
and reference docs in search results. There are ~3100 of them and they
match on almost every generic term.
- Add `ignoreFiles` regexes to docusaurus-search-local for
`user-guide/skills/bundled/` and `user-guide/skills/optional/`.
The two human-written catalog indexes (`reference/skills-catalog`,
`reference/optional-skills-catalog`) remain indexed.
- Add a new feature page `user-guide/features/curator.md` covering the
curator subsystem merged in #16049 and refined in #17307 (per-run
reports): how it runs, config, CLI (`hermes curator status/run/pin/
restore/...`), `.usage.json` telemetry, archival semantics, and
recovery. Slotted into the Core features sidebar next to Skills.
Search index size dropped from 5822 docs to 2704 in the main section;
`user-guide/features/curator` is indexed.
Close integration gaps discovered by auditing qwen-oauth's file coverage.
These are surfaces the original salvage missed — they all existed on
main and were added in the 747 commits since PR #15203 was opened.
Coverage added:
- agent/credential_pool.py: seed pool from auth.json providers.minimax-oauth
so `hermes auth list` reflects logged-in state and
`hermes auth remove minimax-oauth <N>` works through the standard flow.
- agent/credential_sources.py: register RemovalStep for minimax-oauth
with suppression-aware `_clear_auth_store_provider`.
- agent/models_dev.py: PROVIDER_TO_MODELS_DEV mapping (-> 'minimax' family).
- hermes_cli/providers.py: HermesOverlay entry (anthropic_messages transport,
oauth_external auth_type, api.minimax.io/anthropic base).
- hermes_cli/model_normalize.py: add to _MATCHING_PREFIX_STRIP_PROVIDERS so
`minimax-oauth/MiniMax-M2.7` in config.yaml gets correctly repaired.
- hermes_cli/status.py: render MiniMax OAuth block in `hermes doctor`
(logged-in / region / expires_at / error).
- hermes_cli/web_server.py: register in OAUTH_PROVIDER_REGISTRY + dispatch
branch in _resolve_provider_status so the dashboard auth page shows it.
- website/docs/integrations/providers.md: full 'MiniMax (OAuth)' section.
- website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md: --provider enum.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: fallback table row.
- scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP: amanning3390 mapping (CI gate).

compute_next_run() ignored the last_run_at parameter for cron-type
schedules, always computing from _hermes_now() instead. This was
inconsistent with interval jobs which DO use last_run_at as the anchor.
After a crash or restart, cron jobs would compute next_run_at from
the arbitrary restart time rather than the actual last execution time.
While the stale detection in get_due_jobs() catches most cases, using
last_run_at as the croniter base eliminates edge cases and makes the
behavior consistent across schedule types.
Salvaged from #9014 (authored by @beenherebefore) onto current main.
The original PR branch was 2+ weeks stale and would have reverted
substantial unrelated work (jobs_file_lock, workdir/context_from/
enabled_toolsets, issue #16265 state=error recovery). Kept just the
7-line substantive fix and the regression test.
Bare `float(os.getenv("HERMES_CRON_TIMEOUT", 600))` in `run_job()` raises
a `ValueError` when the env var is set to a non-numeric string (e.g. "abc").
Replace it with the same defensive try/except pattern already used by
`_get_script_timeout()` for `HERMES_CRON_SCRIPT_TIMEOUT`: log a warning
and fall back to the 600 s default instead of crashing.
Also update the existing env-var tests to exercise the new code path and
add two new tests — one for an invalid value, one for an empty string.
Fixes#11319
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Closes#4759, closes#4381.
Mutating actions (patch, edit, write_file, remove_file, delete) used to
refuse skills that lived under `skills.external_dirs` with 'Skill X is in
an external directory and cannot be modified. Copy it to your local skills
directory first.' Faced with that error, the agent would fall back to
action='create', which always writes under ~/.hermes/skills/ — producing
a silent duplicate of the external skill in the local store.
Fix: drop the read-only gate. `skills.external_dirs` is configured by the
user; if they pointed it at a directory, they already said 'these are my
skills, treat them the same.' Filesystem permissions handle the genuine
read-only case (write fails, agent sees the error).
- New _containing_skills_root() resolves whichever dir actually contains
the skill; _delete_skill uses it to bound empty-category cleanup so an
external root is never rmdir'd.
- _create_skill behavior is unchanged: new skills still land in local
SKILLS_DIR only. Fewer moving parts.
- Seven new TestExternalSkillMutations tests covering patch/edit/write_file/
remove_file/delete/create against a mocked two-root layout + a category
rmdir-safety check.
When a user authenticates a built-in provider via env var (e.g. DASHSCOPE_API_KEY
triggers the built-in 'alibaba' row) AND defines a custom_providers entry
pointing at the same endpoint, the picker previously emitted two rows for one
endpoint. The built-in row already carries the canonical slug, curated model
list, and correct auth wiring, so the shadow custom entry is redundant.
Adds a _builtin_endpoints set populated as sections 1/2/2b emit rows. Each
entry is the provider's effective base URL (env override via base_url_env_var
wins over the static inference_base_url, so DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL-overridden
endpoints dedup correctly). Section 4 skips any grouped custom entry whose
base_url matches.
Intentionally does NOT repurpose model_catalog.enabled as a 'hide built-ins'
flag. That config controls the remote curated-manifest fetch (documented on
the model-catalog reference page) and overloading it would silently change
behavior for users who disable it for network/privacy reasons.
Three new tests:
- shadow dedup fires when endpoint matches static inference_base_url
- dedup does NOT hide custom entries on genuinely distinct endpoints
- dedup honors the base_url_env_var override path
