Complete the desktop app's tool-backend configuration so it fully
mirrors `hermes tools`. The toolset config panel already did
enable/disable, provider selection, and API-key save/reveal/clear — the
one remaining gap was post-setup install hooks, which previously just
told the user to run the CLI.
Now a provider that declares a post_setup hook (browser Chromium,
Camofox, cua-driver, KittenTTS/Piper, ddgs, Spotify, Langfuse, xAI)
renders a 'Run setup' button that spawns the install via the
`POST /api/tools/toolsets/{name}/post-setup` endpoint and tails the
log inline, feeding the desktop activity rail — mirroring
command-center's runSystemAction poll loop. On completion the panel
refreshes so a now-installed backend reports itself ready.
- hermes.ts: runToolsetPostSetup(name, key) -> profile-scoped POST.
- toolset-config-panel.tsx: PostSetupRunner sub-component (Run setup
button + inline live log + activity-rail upsert + unmount guard),
replacing the CLI-only placeholder.
- i18n: replace the orphaned `toolsets.postSetup` (CLI redirect) string
with proper post-setup UI keys (hint / run / running / starting /
complete / error / failed) across en, ja, zh, zh-hant + types.
- test: post-setup run+poll+log-tail coverage; mock additions for
runToolsetPostSetup/getActionStatus/activity store.
Works against local AND remote backends: all calls route through the
desktop's single `hermes:api` IPC handler to connection.baseUrl, so a
connected remote configures the remote host's tools (keys -> remote
.env, install runs on the remote). Relies on the post-setup endpoint +
'hermes tools post-setup' CLI shipped in #40418.
Verification: tsc -b clean (all 5 locales), eslint clean (the lone
exhaustive-deps warning is pre-existing on origin/main), vitest 4/5
(new post-setup test passes; the failing 'saves an API key' test fails
identically on origin/main — pre-existing EnvVarActionsMenu drift).
Home Assistant is a bundled plugin now (#40709) and declares
allow_update_command=True on its PlatformEntry. The registry fallback
in _handle_update_command already covers it, so the frozenset entry is
a redundant double-allow — same cleanup #40711 did for Discord and
Mattermost. Adds a registry-fallback test mirroring the existing
discord/mattermost cases.
* feat: uninstall the Chat GUI without removing the agent (CLI + desktop UI)
Adds a GUI-only uninstall path so people can remove the desktop Chat GUI
while keeping the Hermes agent + their config/sessions/.env, and surfaces
the three CLI uninstall modes inside the desktop app's Settings → About.
CLI:
- New hermes_cli/gui_uninstall.py: cross-platform discovery + removal of the
desktop GUI's artifacts (source-built dist/release/node_modules + build
stamp, the packaged app bundle, and the Electron userData dir) on Linux,
macOS, and Windows. Never touches the agent source, venv, or user data.
- `hermes uninstall --gui` removes only the Chat GUI; `--gui-summary` prints a
JSON install snapshot (used by the desktop UI to gate options + detect a
missing agent for a future lite client).
- `hermes uninstall --yes` / `--full --yes` now run non-interactively, sharing
the destructive sequence via a new _perform_uninstall() helper. The keep-data
and full flows also sweep the GUI artifacts.
Desktop:
- electron/desktop-uninstall.cjs: pure helpers mapping each mode (gui/lite/full)
to CLI flags, resolving the running app bundle per OS, and building the
detached cleanup script that waits for the app to exit, runs the Python
uninstall, and removes the bundle.
- IPC hermes:uninstall:summary / :run, preload bridge, and types.
- Settings → About "Danger zone" with the three options; agent-removing
options hide when no local agent is detected.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_gui_uninstall.py (22 pass with the existing
uninstall tests), electron/desktop-uninstall.test.cjs (17 pass, wired into
test:desktop:platforms). Docs: desktop.md "Uninstalling" + cli-commands.md.
* fix(desktop): tear down backend process tree before GUI uninstall (Windows lock safety)
The desktop uninstall cleanup script waited only on the desktop app's own
PID, but a backend grandchild (gateway / pty terminal / hermes REPL) can
outlive it and keep hermes.exe + venv files mandatory-locked on Windows —
making the script's rmdir half-fail and leaving a partial install, the same
failure class as the self-update path's #37532.
- main.cjs: runDesktopUninstall now awaits releaseBackendLock() before
spawning the cleanup script — tree-kills every backend PID the desktop owns
(primary + pool) via taskkill /T /F and polls the venv shim until unlocked.
Extracted the shared core out of releaseBackendLockForUpdate so both the
update hand-off and the uninstaller use the identical, incident-hardened
teardown. No-op on macOS/Linux (no mandatory locks).
- desktop-uninstall.cjs: Windows cleanup script removes the bundle via a
bounded rmdir retry loop (10x, 1s) instead of a single rmdir, since Windows
releases directory handles lazily even after the holding process exits.
- Dropped a fragile tasklist|findstr reap-by-path attempt; the Electron-side
tree-kill-by-PID is the reliable mechanism.
Tests: desktop-uninstall.test.cjs updated for the retry-loop output (17 pass).
* fix(desktop): address review on GUI uninstall (venv self-delete, gates, wait-loop)
Resolves @OutThisLife's review on #40355:
1. full mode now gated on agent presence (needsAgent: true). It removes the
agent + user data, so on a lite client with no local agent it's hidden
like lite — no more offering to remove an agent that isn't there.
2. (Finding 3, the real bug) lite/full no longer rmtree the venv from the
venv's OWN python. On Windows a running python.exe is mandatory-locked, so
that half-fails. New lightweight 'python -m hermes_cli.uninstall --mode X'
entrypoint (stdlib-only imports) lets the desktop run agent-removing modes
under the SYSTEM python (findSystemPython) with PYTHONPATH=<agentRoot>, so
import hermes_cli resolves from source while the venv is torn down. Falls
back to venv python + logs when no system python (gui-only unaffected).
3. Windows wait-loop is now bounded (60 tries, matching POSIX) and matches the
PID as a whole space-delimited token via findstr (no substring 99->990
trap, no redundant bare find). set HERMES_HOME/PID/PYTHONPATH now quoted.
4. Renamed the misleading 'returns null for dev run' test — the dev-run safety
is shouldRemoveAppBundle(isPackaged=false), which the test now asserts.
Docs: note that --gui on a source checkout also sweeps node_modules/build
output. Tests: 18 python + 19 desktop pass.
Conflict resolution prefixes --workspace web before --silent (preserving
the Termux npm_workspace_args path); update test_cmd_update fixture to match.
Add zakame@zakame.net -> zakame mapping so CI author check passes.
- check_dir = npm_dir if audit_extra else npm_dir evaluated identically in
both branches; change to PROJECT_ROOT if audit_extra else npm_dir so
workspace-scoped audits check the workspace root's node_modules
- Add test_npm_install_uses_workspace_web_scope asserting --workspace web is
passed adjacently in the _build_web_ui npm install invocation
- Update the --skip-build pre-build hint in the dashboard startup path
to use `npm install --workspace web && npm run build -w web` so users
don't accidentally trigger a desktop rebuild by following the hint.
- Add test_tui_launch_install_uses_workspace_scope to assert that the
TUI launch npm install carries --workspace ui-tui, covering the call
site added in the prior commit.
- Add --workspace ui-tui to the TUI launch npm install, the one call
site missed by the prior commit. Without scoping it ran from
PROJECT_ROOT and still resolved apps/desktop via the apps/* glob.
- Update the two manual-recovery hints in _build_web_ui (npm install
failure and build failure paths) to use the scoped form
`npm install --workspace web && npm run build -w web` so users
following the hint don't accidentally trigger a desktop rebuild.
- Update the stale test assertion in test_cmd_update.py to expect
--workspace web in the _build_web_ui npm ci call, which was
previously unreachable through the if-guard and left the workspace-
scoping change from the prior commit unverified.
Root package.json uses apps/* workspaces glob which unconditionally
includes apps/desktop (Electron + node-pty@1.1.0, ~200MB, requires
make/g++ to build) in every unscoped npm command run from the repo root.
This commit addresses the core problem by adding explicit workspace
scoping to all internal npm calls:
hermes_cli/main.py (_build_web_ui):
- Add --workspace web to the npm install call so only the web
workspace deps are resolved, never apps/desktop.
hermes_cli/tools_config.py:
- Add --workspaces=false to agent-browser and Camofox root installs
so only root-level deps (agent-browser, @streamdown/math) are
installed, bypassing the workspace graph entirely.
hermes_cli/doctor.py (run_doctor npm audit):
- Replace the single unscoped 'npm audit --json' at PROJECT_ROOT with
three scoped invocations:
* --workspaces=false for root deps (Browser tools)
* --workspace web for the web workspace
* --workspace ui-tui for the TUI workspace
- Update remediation hints to use matching scoped 'npm audit fix'
commands so users don't accidentally trigger a desktop rebuild.
package.json:
- Add convenience scripts for scoped operations:
npm run install:root / install:web / install:tui / install:desktop
npm run audit:root / audit:web / audit:tui
npm run audit:fix:root / audit:fix:web / audit:fix:tui
These give developers and CI a safe, explicit interface for the
most common per-workspace tasks without accidentally pulling desktop.
Fixes#38772
Codify the desktop overlay/design conventions in apps/desktop/DESIGN.md:
surfaces & elevation (shadow-nous + --stroke-nous), stroke/color tokens, the
single Button (variants/sizes, no per-call overrides), shared form controls
(controlVariants / SearchField / SegmentedControl / Switch), flat layout
(PAGE_INSET_X, OverlaySplitLayout, ListRow, no card-in-card), feedback states
(Loader / ErrorState / LogView / EmptyState), BrandMark, motion, i18n, and the
nanostore state model. Ends with a pre-merge checklist.
Two fixes so the doc isn't aspirational:
- brand-mark: rounded-md + overflow-hidden (doc says "softly rounded")
- i18n ja/zh/zh-hant: mirror en's "Begin" + drop trailing period on
connectedProvider (doc says update all locales together)
* fix(desktop): unify dialog/overlay buttons on shared Button component
Replace raw <button> action/text controls across the modal layer (boot
failure, install, update, onboarding, clarify, model-visibility,
notifications, gateway menu) with the shared Button + its variants
(text / ghost / icon-xs). Drops the bespoke square-cornered styling so
every dialog matches the app's slightly-rounded button system, and
swaps clarify-tool's hardcoded "Skip" for the existing i18n string.
* feat(desktop): add dev-only dialog gallery for auditing overlays
A code-split, DEV-gated harness (toggle ⌘/Ctrl+Alt+Shift+D) that triggers
every dialog/overlay so their buttons can be eyeballed in one place:
store-driven overlays (boot failure, updates, notifications, sudo/secret)
plus in-place dialogs (confirm, profile create/rename, attach-url, model
picker/visibility, clarify, tool approval). Never ships to production.
* fix(desktop): use Ctrl+Shift+D for dialog gallery (mac-friendly)
The Cmd/Ctrl+Alt+Shift+D chord is impractical on macOS (Option mangles
the keypress). Ctrl+Shift+D is the same chord on every platform and uses
neither Cmd nor Option.
* fix(desktop): stop overriding button icon size to size-4
Action buttons hardcoded size-4 icons, overriding the Button component's
built-in size-3.5. That extra 2px is why boot-failure / onboarding / gateway
buttons looked chunkier than the settings "Apply" (size-3.5 spinner) despite
being the same component+size. Drop the overrides so icons inherit 3.5.
* feat(desktop): add BrandMark, use it in the updates overlay hero
New BrandMark renders the white logo.png on a hardcoded brand-blue tile
(#0000F2 light / #222 dark), replacing the generic Sparkles hero glyph in
the "update available" overlay. Trying it here first to iterate on the look.
NOTE: apps/desktop/public/logo.png is currently a 1x1 placeholder — the tile
renders now; the glyph appears once the real white logo art is dropped in.
* feat(desktop): add real logo.png asset, render it white in BrandMark
logo.png is blue line-art on transparent, so force it white via filter to
read on both the brand-blue (#0000F2) and near-black (#222) tiles. Bump the
glyph to 62% of the tile for the portrait aspect.
* fix(desktop): BrandMark renders logo as-is, no light bg/radius/padding
Drop the white filter, the hardcoded light-mode blue tile, the radius, and
the inner padding. Logo now fills the tile over a transparent surface in
light mode; dark keeps the #222 tile.
* fix(desktop): bump updates-overlay BrandMark to size-16
* feat(desktop): use downscaled karb.webp in BrandMark
Swap the BrandMark glyph to karb.webp, downscaled from 1129x1418/888KB to
254x320/81KB for the hero badge.
* feat(desktop): use nous-girl mark in BrandMark, invert in dark
Key the white background to transparent so only the black line-art remains
(384px/20KB webp). Light mode shows black art; dark mode flips it white via
dark:invert on the #222 tile. Drop the now-unused karb.webp and logo.png.
* fix(desktop): BrandMark uses nous-girl as-is (no transparent/invert)
The dark-mode invert read as a creepy negative. Use the opaque black-on-white
mark unchanged in both themes; drop the white-key, dark:invert, and #222 tile.
* fix(desktop): give BrandMark an explicit white bg tile
* fix(desktop): use nous-girl.jpg directly in BrandMark
* perf(desktop): downscale nous-girl.jpg to 256x256 (466KB -> 19KB)
* style(desktop): bump nous light --theme-secondary to 14% blue
* fix(desktop): outline button is transparent, not chrome-filled
The outline variant used bg-background (the chrome color), so on cards/overlays
with a different surface it rendered as an odd gray-blue fill (visible on the
boot overlay's Repair install / Use local gateway). Make it bg-transparent so
it inherits the surface like a real outline. Reverts the unrelated
--theme-secondary tweak.
* fix(desktop): clean outline button — thin border, no shadow/fill
Drop shadow-xs and the resting fills (light chrome bg, dark bg-input/30) so
outline is just a thin clean border with a subtle hover, in both themes.
* fix(desktop): stop forcing tertiary bg on outline buttons
A global [data-variant='outline'] rule set background: var(--ui-bg-tertiary),
which (attribute-selector specificity) overrode the cva bg-transparent — so
outline buttons always showed the pale tertiary fill on cards/overlays
regardless of the variant classes. Scope that fill to secondary only; outline
is now a true transparent border.
* style(desktop): unified overlay design system + restore #38631 flat-UI
Overlays/dialogs/toasts share a custom shadow-nous (downward-weighted) and
--stroke-nous hairline instead of hard borders: boot-failure, install,
notifications, model-picker, onboarding, prompt-overlays, updates, Dialog.
- button: outline is a 1px inset ring (no fill/shadow); chrome lives in Button
- BrandMark: 256px nous-girl mark replaces sparkle glyphs (updates/onboarding/about)
- onboarding: conditional header, lemniscate-bloom loaders, OTP device-code boxes,
NOUS CONNECTED hero (ascii decode) + cuneiform easter egg, "Begin" matrix exit
- shared LogView + ErrorState; math/ascii loaders over "Loading..." text
- appearance-settings flattened to SegmentedControl/ListRow; keybind-panel on
shadow-nous + text-variant reset
- restore flat-UI clobbered by #38631's stale-squash (4a1907bd1): command-center,
profiles, skills, messaging, cron de-boxed; shared SearchField + PAGE_INSET_X;
profiles back on OverlaySplitLayout; skills tabs+search one row, no row dividers
* refactor(desktop): clean pass — drop dead code, dedupe, fix stale docs
- log-view: drop unused `bare` prop + forwardRef (no caller uses ref)
- install-overlay: drop `stateOverride` (only the removed dev gallery used it)
- profiles: ProfilesViewProps down to { onClose } (drop vestigial section/titlebar)
- onboarding: hoist shared PROVIDER_ROW_CLASS (was duplicated 2x)
- brand-mark / error-state: tighten comments, fix stale AlertCircle reference
Follow-up on the backend-visible artifact-path fix.
- Extract the cache-mount iteration loop into a reusable, backend-agnostic
credential_files.map_cache_path_to_container(host_path, container_base) that
returns the POSIX container path or None. to_agent_visible_cache_path() now
delegates to it (keeping its Docker-only gate), and image_generation_tool's
_agent_visible_cache_path() delegates to it too — eliminating the duplicated
loop and the divergent path-join (posixpath vs Path) between the two.
- Drop the now-unused posixpath/Path imports from image_generation_tool.py.
- Document the agent_visible_cache_base getattr probe as a forward-looking
optional hook (no producer yet) so it doesn't read as a typo'd attribute.
- Add unit tests for map_cache_path_to_container.
`gateway/run.py::_UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS` was a hardcoded frozenset
listing every messaging platform allowed to invoke the `/update` slash
command. Plugin-migrated platforms (currently Discord and Mattermost,
soon also Home Assistant via #32500) declare `allow_update_command=True`
on their `PlatformEntry`, and `_handle_update_command` already falls
back to the registry when a platform isn't in the frozenset. The result
was a silent redundancy: those entries said "allowed" twice, and the
registry flag was a no-op for them in practice.
- Removed `Platform.DISCORD` and `Platform.MATTERMOST` from the frozenset.
- Updated the docstring to make the split explicit (built-ins live in
the frozenset; plugins use `allow_update_command` on the registry entry).
The remaining frozenset entries are all still built-in platforms living
under `gateway/platforms/` today. Future plugin migrations should drop
their entry from the frozenset as part of the migration PR (or in a
sibling chore PR like this one).
Added a `TestUpdateCommandPlatformGate` test class that pins down all
three branches of the gate so future changes don't silently regress:
- Programmatic interfaces (`Platform.WEBHOOK`, `Platform.API_SERVER`)
must remain blocked.
- Plugin-migrated platforms (Discord, Mattermost) must pass via the
registry fallback.
- Built-in platforms in the hardcoded frozenset (Telegram) must
still pass without needing the registry.
The gate previously had zero direct test coverage — its only existing
coverage was `test_no_adapter_for_platform` which exercised a different
code path.
Move gateway/platforms/homeassistant.py into plugins/platforms/homeassistant/
following the same shape as the Mattermost and Discord migrations.
- Adapter file is renamed via git mv (history is preserved).
- register() exposes the platform via the plugin system instead of the
hardcoded Platform.HOMEASSISTANT elif in gateway/run.py::build_adapter().
- _standalone_send() replaces the legacy _send_homeassistant() helper in
tools/send_message_tool.py. Out-of-process cron delivery
(deliver=homeassistant from a cron process not co-located with the
gateway) now flows through the registry's standalone_sender_fn path
instead of the hardcoded elif.
- _is_connected() probes HASS_TOKEN via hermes_cli.gateway.get_env_value
so existing connected-platform checks behave identically.
The HASS_TOKEN / HASS_URL env-to-PlatformConfig seeding in
gateway/config.py stays in core — same pattern bluebubbles, mattermost,
and discord migrations followed. No setup_fn or apply_yaml_config_fn is
registered because Home Assistant has no _setup_homeassistant wizard in
hermes_cli/setup.py and no homeassistant: YAML block in config.yaml today;
setup runs through the existing hermes_cli/tools_config.py toolset wizard.
Test imports were rewritten across tests/gateway/test_homeassistant.py,
tests/integration/test_ha_integration.py, and
tests/tools/test_send_message_missing_platforms.py; the legacy
(token, extra, chat_id, message)-shaped _send_homeassistant call site is
preserved via a small SimpleNamespace shim in
test_send_message_missing_platforms.py (same approach used when
mattermost moved).
- Focused HA suites (64 tests across the three rewritten files) pass.
- Broader gateway/cron sweep produces 10 failures identical to main
baseline (telegram approval/model-picker xdist isolation flakes,
wecom_callback defusedxml issue, cron script_timeout fixture issue).
Zero net new failures.
The dependency-verification repair in _verify_core_dependencies_installed
ran 'pip install --reinstall -e .' via _run_install_with_heartbeat directly,
bypassing the Windows shim-quarantine that the primary install path performs.
That reinstall rewrites the entry-point shims, and on Windows the live
hermes.exe is the running process — pip can neither delete nor overwrite it.
With no quarantine, the shim was left missing and 'hermes' dropped off PATH
('hermes' is not recognized... after update).
Extract the rename-out-of-the-way / restore-on-failure logic into a reusable
_run_quarantined_install helper and route both the primary editable installs
and the --reinstall -e . repair through it. The per-package repair installs
only third-party deps (never hermes-agent), so they don't touch the shims and
are left untouched. Add a regression test (fails on old code, passes on new).
- check-attribution: add chilltulpa@gmail.com -> TheGardenGallery to
AUTHOR_MAP in scripts/release.py (new external contributor via the
carried-over commits).
- ty: the dashboard back-compat test imported pytest but never used it,
tripping unresolved-import. Drop the dead import — tests are plain
functions driving the parser via subprocess, no pytest API needed.
Supersedes the single-.1 rotation from the prior commit, which only bounded
FUTURE growth: rotating a pre-existing oversized desktop.log just renamed the
monster to .1 (no disk reclaimed) and left it stranded until a second rotation
cycle that a now-healthy app may never reach. The ~326 GB file that motivated
this PR would therefore persist as desktop.log.1 after the user updated.
Two changes bring desktop.log in line with the Python-side logs
(hermes_logging.py RotatingFileHandler, maxBytes x backupCount):
1. Cascade rotation: live -> .1 -> .2 -> .3, dropping the oldest. Steady-state
usage is bounded at ~(backupCount + 1) x cap regardless of loop intensity,
instead of the old ~2x with a single backup.
2. Pathological-size discard: a file past 4x the cap is a boot-loop artifact
with no diagnostic value — delete it (and any equally poisoned backups)
outright instead of relocating the disk-exhaustion problem into a sibling.
This is what lets an updated app self-heal a disk a stale build filled,
on the very next launch, rather than one rotation cycle later.
Behavior verified against a real filesystem in a temp dir: under cap -> no
rotation; normal overflow -> live becomes .1; repeated overflow keeps exactly
backupCount backups (no .4) with total bounded; a pathological live file plus
poisoned backups are all reclaimed. node --check passes.
Co-authored-by: The Garden <chilltulpa@gmail.com>
desktop.log is an append-only forensic log written via appendFileSync /
fs.promises.appendFile with no rotation. When the backend enters a boot
loop — e.g. the version-skew crash where an old app shell spawns
`dashboard --tui`, argparse exits(2) instantly, and the renderer keeps
retrying — the full bootstrap transcript plus repeated stack traces are
appended on every attempt. In the wild this drove a single desktop.log to
~326 GB, exhausting the disk and breaking `hermes update`/install (git
index.lock, venv rebuild, and npm all need scratch space).
Rotate to a single .1 sibling once the live file crosses a 10 MB cap, so
total on-disk usage stays ~2x the cap while preserving the most recent
transcript for diagnostics. The size check runs before each append in both
the sync (shutdown) and async (steady-state) flush paths. All filesystem
ops stay inside try/catch so logging can never block startup/shutdown or
crash the shell — consistent with the existing append error handling.
Paired with the CLI --tui back-compat guard in this PR: the guard stops the
crash loop from starting, and this stops a crash loop (from any cause) from
ever filling the disk.
Older Hermes desktop app shells (<= 0.15.x) spawn the backend as
`hermes dashboard --no-open --tui --host ... --port ...`. The --tui flag
was removed from the dashboard subcommand in cae6b5486 (embedded chat is
always on now).
When a user's CLI updates past that commit but their desktop app binary
has not, argparse hard-errored with 'unrecognized arguments: --tui' and
exit(2). The backend died before becoming ready and the desktop GUI showed
only 'Hermes couldn't start' with no actionable cause — a confusing brick
for anyone whose app and CLI versions drift apart across an update.
Add a hidden, deprecated, accepted-and-ignored --tui flag to the dashboard
subparser so an old app shell + new CLI degrades gracefully. Hidden from
--help via argparse.SUPPRESS so we don't re-advertise a removed feature.
Safe to delete once the floor app version is well past 0.16.0.
Adds tests/hermes_cli/test_dashboard_tui_backcompat.py pinning: the flag
parses without error, stays hidden from --help, and the modern (no --tui)
invocation is unaffected.
Address the two non-blocking follow-ups from review:
- next_call is now single-use per middleware frame. A second invocation
raises instead of silently re-running the downstream provider/tool, so
the terminal call cannot execute twice via the chain. The error surfaces
through the existing handler, which preserves the first downstream result.
- Request-middleware payload copies go through _safe_copy(), which falls
back to a shallow dict copy when deepcopy() fails on a non-deepcopyable
member (clients, callbacks, file handles) instead of aborting the pass.
Adds regression coverage for both: double next_call() keeps the terminal
single-run, and a non-deepcopyable (threading.Lock) request payload still
runs middleware via the shallow fallback.
macOS reserves cmd+` for window cycling, so the keydown never reached the
renderer and profile.default never fired. Move it to ⌥⌘0 — the "0 slot" of
the ⌘⌥-digit profile range — which is unreserved and fits the scheme.
Add rebindable actions for the high-frequency gaps: focus composer, open
model picker, next/prev session, search sessions (⌘⇧F), show files/
terminal tab, and nav→artifacts. Reconcile the duplicate Shift+N new-
session listener into session.new's defaults, and surface the remaining
context-local shortcuts (⌘↵ steer, ⌘L terminal selection, ⌘W close
preview) as read-only rows so the panel is the honest source of truth.
Add a central keybind registry + nanostore so desktop hotkeys are
discoverable and user-rebindable. A titlebar ⌨ button (and ⌘/) opens a
collapsible map grouped by Composer (read-only) / Profiles / Session /
Navigation / View; click any chip to capture a new combo. Overrides
persist to localStorage as a delta against shipped defaults, so future
default changes aren't shadowed by a stored snapshot.
Migrates the previously scattered inline listeners (palette, command
center, new session, sidebar, theme) into the registry, and adds profile
switch/cycle/create + default-profile hotkeys.
":" is FTS5's column-filter operator. With a single-column "content" FTS table,
an unquoted query like "TODO: fix" parses as "column:term" and raises
"no such column: TODO". search_messages() catches that OperationalError at the
execute site and returns [], so colon queries silently yield zero hits even when
the content is present. This hits both the session_search tool and the dashboard
search.
Add ":" to the Step 2 metacharacter strip in _sanitize_fts5_query(), mirroring
how the other FTS5 syntax characters are already stripped. Colons inside quoted
phrases are preserved (Step 1 protects them). Adds a regression test asserting a
colon query still finds matching content, plus unit assertions on the sanitizer.
* feat(desktop): surface every provider + models from `hermes model` in the GUI
The desktop GUI's model/provider choices were starved relative to the
`hermes model` CLI. Onboarding listed ~8 providers, Settings → Model only
showed authenticated ones, because the global `/api/model/options` endpoint
called build_models_payload() without the full-universe flags the TUI's
model.options JSON-RPC already used.
- web_server.py: `/api/model/options` now passes include_unconfigured +
picker_hints + canonical_order (matching the TUI handler), so every GUI
surface fed by it sees all 37 canonical providers with auth hints.
- Settings → Model: provider dropdown lists every provider; picking an
unconfigured api_key provider shows an inline 'paste key → Activate' flow
(auto-selects the recommended default); OAuth/external route to onboarding.
- Onboarding: the API-key form is now driven by the full provider catalog
(curated five first, then the rest), not a hand-maintained list of five.
- types/hermes.ts: ModelOptionProvider gains authenticated/auth_type/key_env.
- Tests: model-settings covers the full-universe list + inline activation;
fixed a pre-existing stale assertion (nous / hermes-4 was never rendered).
* feat(desktop): /model in GUI chat opens the model picker instead of a dead-end notice
Typing /model in a desktop chat session printed "/model uses the desktop
model picker instead of a slash command" and did nothing — it never opened
the picker. (The slash worker can't render the prompt_toolkit modal /model
opens in the CLI, so the desktop just showed the unavailable-notice.)
- use-prompt-actions.ts: intercept /model client-side. No args → open the
desktop model picker overlay (setModelPickerOpen) — the same full
provider+model picker as the status-bar button. With args (/model <name>
[--provider ...]) → run the switch directly via slash.exec so power users
can still type it.
- desktop-slash-commands.ts: export isModelPickerCommand() so the hook can
detect picker-owned commands without duplicating the PICKER_OWNED_COMMANDS set.

* fix(desktop): make onboarding provider lists scrollable + clean up card styling
The full-catalog onboarding picker could overflow the modal with no way to
scroll — the OAuth provider list and the api-key grid both grew past the
viewport, hiding the key input and the bottom action row (overflow-hidden card,
no scroll container).
- Scope a `max-h-[60dvh] overflow-y-auto` region to just the provider list /
api-key card grid; the "other providers" disclosure, key input, and action
row stay pinned and reachable.
- Inner `p-1` so card borders / focus rings aren't clipped by the scroll viewport.
- Flatter card styling: drop the persistent border, the redundant selected-state
checkmark, and the modal shadow — selection now reads from the ring alone (the
muted "already configured" check stays).
- Remove the " — set up" suffix from the Settings → Model provider dropdown; the
inline setup flow already signals unconfigured providers.
* fix(desktop): identify api-key onboarding cards by env var, not id
Selecting "Google Gemini" also highlighted "Google AI Studio": the curated
catalog and the backend-derived providers can collide on `id` (a provider slug
can equal a curated id like `gemini`), so `option.id === o.id` matched two
cards at once. Key selection (and the React key + snap-back effect) on `envKey`
instead, which the catalog dedups and is therefore unique per card.

Track successful next_call completion separately from invocation so execution
middleware that catches and translates a downstream provider/tool failure does
not accidentally convert that failure into a successful None result.
Also avoid wrapping BaseException from downstream execution, and document the
execution middleware error semantics.
Tests cover:
- pre-next_call middleware failures fail open to the remaining chain
- post-next_call middleware failures preserve the downstream result
- translated downstream failures propagate instead of returning None
- downstream BaseException is not wrapped

Salvages the primary fix from #24275 (asdlem) and layers a last-resort
fallback on top:
Primary (from #24275): the real macOS 26 root cause is that `gui/<uid>`
isn't reachable from non-Aqua/background sessions. Switch the launchd
domain to `user/<uid>` and mark the plist valid for both Aqua and
Background sessions (LimitLoadToSessionType), restoring a real supervised
service. Treat exit code 125 as "job unloaded" so start/restart
re-bootstrap and retry.
Last resort (this PR): the #23387 reporter saw `user/<uid>` bootstrap
also fail with error 5 on some hosts. When even a fresh bootstrap can't
manage the domain (codes 5/125 persist), degrade to a CLI-managed
detached background process instead of crashing — logs to gateway.log,
PID tracked via gateway.pid so stop/status/restart keep working. Print
guidance that it won't auto-start at login or auto-restart on crash.

macOS 26+ broke launchctl management of the gui/<uid> (and user/<uid>)
domains: `bootstrap` returns error 5 and `kickstart` returns error 125
("Domain does not support specified action"), so `hermes gateway
start/install/restart` crashed with a cryptic traceback (#23387).
Detect these codes and degrade gracefully: launch the gateway as a
CLI-managed detached background process (the documented `nohup hermes
gateway run --replace` workaround), with logs to gateway.log and the PID
tracked via gateway.pid so stop/status/restart keep working. Print clear
guidance that the service won't auto-start at login or auto-restart on
crash on this macOS version. launchd_stop also tolerates 125/5 from
bootout and falls through to the PID-based kill.
* fix: respect disabled auto-compaction on context overflow
Port from anomalyco/opencode#30749.
When compression.enabled is false, NO automatic compaction trigger may
fire. The proactive token-threshold paths (preflight + post-response
should_compress gate) already honoured the setting, but the three
provider-overflow recovery paths in the agent loop — long-context-tier
429, 413 payload-too-large, and context-overflow — called
_compress_context() unconditionally, silently compressing and rotating
the session against the user's explicit choice.
Add a single guard at the top of the overflow-recovery dispatch: when
compression is disabled and the error is one of those three overflow
classes, surface a terminal error (compaction_disabled: True) telling the
user to /compress manually, /new, switch to a larger-context model, or
reduce attachments. Manual /compress (force=True) is unaffected — it never
enters this loop.
Tests: new TestOverflowWithCompactionDisabled (413 + 400 overflow don't
compress when disabled; control case still compresses when enabled).
Existing overflow-recovery tests updated to enable compaction explicitly
(they verify the recovery fires); fixture defaults flipped to True to
match production (compression.enabled defaults to True).
* fix(install): detect TLS cert-trust failures during npm install on Windows
Corporate MITM proxies and missing root CAs surface as 'unable to get
local issuer certificate' while npm (most often Electron's install.js
postinstall) downloads over HTTPS. The installer surfaced this as an
opaque 'desktop workspace npm install failed (exit 1)', so users
misread it as a permissions/admin-rights problem (issue #38016).
Add a shared Show-NpmCertHint detector and route all three npm-install
failure paths (agent-browser global install, browser-tools workspace,
desktop workspace) through it. On a cert error it prints actionable
NODE_EXTRA_CA_CERTS / strict-ssl remediation; on any other failure it
stays silent.

* fix(gateway): plain text while busy interrupts by default again
busy_input_mode (default 'interrupt') was advertised as the busy-behavior
knob, but a second knob added in 7abd62719 — busy_text_mode, defaulting to
'queue' — short-circuited every plain TEXT message before busy_input_mode
was consulted. Result: plain follow-ups silently queued instead of
interrupting, even with busy_input_mode left at its 'interrupt' default
(regression #38390, silent-queue #31588).
Collapse to one source of truth: busy_input_mode drives text handling.
busy_text_mode is kept only as a legacy explicit override for back-compat
(existing queue setups keep working); when unset it follows busy_input_mode.
All default fallbacks flipped queue->interrupt. The debounce mechanism is
preserved and now keyed off the resolved mode.
Fixes#38390, #31588.
Conversation rhythm:
- Single `--paragraph-gap` knob drives paragraph spacing both inside a
markdown block and between consecutive prose parts, out-specifying Tailwind
Typography's prose margins. Code cards carry the same gap themselves so it
holds at any Streamdown nesting depth.
- Two-tier vertical rhythm: `--turn-block-gap` separates scaffolding (tools /
thinking) from the reply; `--tool-row-gap` keeps a tool run tight.
- Drop the prose indent so prose, tools, todos, and thinking share one left
edge. `---` renders as quiet spacing, not a heavy rule.
Flat tool list:
- Tools always render as a standalone-row stack, never a "Tool actions · N
steps" group. assistant-ui slices the tool range unstably (interleaved live
vs. reconstructed-consecutive when settled), so grouping reshuffled the whole
turn the instant it settled. Flat rows are pixel-identical either way.
- Inline approvals can no longer be buried in a collapsed group body.
- Remove the now-dead grouping helpers from tool-fallback-model.
Empty thinking:
- Suppress reasoning disclosures with no visible text (encrypted / spinner-
coerced reasoning) instead of leaving an empty "Thinking" header.
- Tail stall indicator returns "thinking" when a running turn goes quiet.
Streaming cadence:
- Smooth character-reveal decouples visible cadence from bursty arrival.
- Flush queued text deltas before applying tool events so a tool row can't
jump ahead of its preceding text.
- Disable Nagle on the GUI WebSocket so per-token frames aren't coalesced.
