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

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.
Replicate the `hermes tools` configurator in the dashboard Skills →
Toolsets view. Each toolset now opens a config drawer that covers the
full lifecycle the CLI offers: enable/disable, pick a provider/backend,
enter and save API keys, and run a provider's post-setup install hook
with a live log tail.
The toolset view was previously read+toggle only — the provider matrix
and key-status endpoints existed but the page never called them, and
there was no way to save a key or run a backend install (npm/pip/binary)
from the browser.
Backend:
- New CLI subcommand `hermes tools post-setup <KEY>` — non-interactive,
scriptable target that runs a provider's install hook (agent_browser,
camofox, cua_driver, kittentts, piper, ddgs, spotify, langfuse,
xai_grok). Validated against valid_post_setup_keys() so an arbitrary
key can't drive _run_post_setup.
- PUT /api/tools/toolsets/{name}/env — save API keys to ~/.hermes/.env
via save_env_value (same store the CLI writes), validated against the
toolset category's env-var allowlist; blank values skipped.
- POST /api/tools/toolsets/{name}/post-setup — spawn-action that runs
`hermes tools post-setup <key>`; frontend tails the log via the
existing /api/actions/tools-post-setup/status. Registered in
_ACTION_LOG_FILES.
Frontend:
- New ToolsetConfigDrawer component (provider radios, password key
inputs with saved-state, get-a-key links, Run-setup + live install
log). Toolset cards get a Configure button + the drawer also exposes
the enable toggle.
- api.ts: toggleToolset, getToolsetConfig, selectToolsetProvider,
saveToolsetEnv, runToolsetPostSetup + ToolsetConfig/Provider/EnvVar/
EnvResult types.
Validation: 56 admin-endpoint tests pass (10 new: env save w/ CLI
parity + allowlist reject + blank-skip, post-setup spawn validation,
auth gate); 232 web_server tests pass; web npm run build + eslint clean;
HTTP E2E exercises save-key (CLI reads it back) and spawn+poll
post-setup to exit 0.
The Browse-hub tab was a blank search box with sparse result cards (name +
source + one Install button), no way to read a skill before installing, no
visual security scan, and no indication it was even connected to any hubs.
Backend (web_server.py):
- GET /api/skills/hub/sources — lists the configured hubs (label + trust
tier + GitHub rate-limit + index availability) and featured skills pulled
from the centralized index (zero extra API calls), plus installed-skill
provenance so the UI can mark already-installed results.
- GET /api/skills/hub/preview — fetches a skill's SKILL.md text + file
manifest WITHOUT installing (decodes byte-stored text, masks binaries).
- GET /api/skills/hub/scan — runs the SAME quarantine + scan_skill +
should_allow_install pipeline the CLI installer uses, then cleans up
quarantine, returning verdict / per-finding detail / severity tally /
install-policy decision.
- search now returns per-source counts + timed-out sources + installed map.
Frontend (SkillsPage HubBrowser):
- Landing state: connected-hubs strip + featured skill grid (no more blank
page).
- Rich cards: trust-level color coding, source, tags, identifier,
Details + Install (or Installed state).
- Detail dialog: read the actual SKILL.md, on-demand visual security scan
(verdict pill, severity tally, per-finding list, allow/block policy),
GitHub repo link.
- Search meta line: result count + timing + per-source breakdown (the
'feels slow / no feedback' complaint).
Tests: 4 new endpoint test classes (sources/preview/scan + updated search
shape) in test_dashboard_admin_endpoints.py.
profile list and profile show assumed the wrapper script is always named
after the profile (wrapper_dir / name). When a custom alias exists — e.g.
`hermes profile alias steve --name qiaobusi` creates ~/.local/bin/qiaobusi
pointing at `hermes -p steve` — the display silently showed the profile
name (or nothing) instead of the alias the user actually typed.
The custom-alias *creation* path (create_wrapper_script(name, target)) was
added later; the *display* path was never updated to match.
Add find_alias_for_profile() — a reverse lookup that scans the wrapper dir
for our own wrappers (alias-named file containing 'hermes -p <profile>'),
prefers a custom alias over the profile-named one, strips .bat on Windows,
and sorts for deterministic output. Populate ProfileInfo.alias_name and wire
it into the three display sites (profile describe, list, show).
Credit: salvages the intent of #11506 by wss434631143, reimplemented on
current main against the post-#11506 custom-alias (--name/target) mechanism.
Tests: 6 new (profile-named, custom-name, none, unrelated-file rejection,
windows .bat strip, list_profiles surfacing). All 123 in test_profiles pass.
E2E verified against the real CLI for both custom and profile-named aliases.
* feat(tui): HERMES_DEV_CREDITS live-spend dev readout (L0 tracer for usage-aware credits)
L0 of the usage-aware-credits feature: a dev-only, env-gated tracer that
exercises the real header -> CreditsState -> TUI pipe end-to-end behind
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS, de-risking the L1/L5 build before the notice policy exists.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: CreditsState + parse_credits_headers (headers are
strings -> paid_access via == "true", never bool(); retain-last-known; only
subscription_micros may be negative; *_usd kept verbatim).
- run_agent.py: _capture_credits / get_credits_state / get_credits_spent_micros,
session-start baseline latch, + dev-gated "credits" capture log.
- agent/chat_completion_helpers.py: capture on the streaming response.
- agent/agent_init.py: init _credits_state + _credits_session_start_micros.
- tui_gateway/server.py: _get_usage emits dev_credits_spent_micros only when flagged.
- ui-tui appChrome.tsx / types.ts: cents delta status segment + "(dev credits)" banner.
Off by default; silent for normal users. Validated live against staging
(capture log delta matches the TUI segment). Throwaway consumer (readout/log/
banner); credits_tracker + the capture plumbing are the real feature foundation.
* test(credits): lock parser under 9-state matrix + harden validation (L2)
Add tests/agent/test_credits_tracker.py with 92 tests covering the 9-state
matrix (healthy, sub_90pct, grant_exhausted, purchased_only, tool_pool_free,
depleted, debt, missing, no_org) plus validation edge cases: version strict==1
with warn-once latch for v>1, bool-string trap (paid_access/tool_pool_gated_off
== "true"/"false", never bool()), half-pair subscription limit treated as
both-absent while parse succeeds, USD regex ^-?\d+\.\d{2}$, non-int micros
→ None, negative non-subscription micros → None, as_of_ms junk → None, zero
limit ZeroDivision guard.
Harden agent/credits_tracker.py to match the spec:
- Add tool_pool_micros/tool_pool_gated_off/from_header fields to CreditsState
- Add depleted property (== not paid_access, never remaining==0)
- Change used_fraction guard to key off subscription_limit_micros (the actual
denominator) not denominator_kind (metadata)
- Replace fail-soft _safe_int with a sentinel-returning variant; full validation
now returns None on any malformed field rather than silently defaulting
- Add module-level warn-once latch for version > 1
- Add USD regex validation; add denominator_kind allow-list check
- Parse x-nous-tool-pool-* prefix headers (not x-nous-credits-tool-pool-*)
* feat(credits): notice spine — AgentNotice + notice_callback/notice_clear_callback + TUI binding (L1)
L1 of usage-aware credits: the driver-agnostic notice delivery spine that L4's
policy will fire through and L5's TUI render will consume.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: AgentNotice dataclass (text/level/kind/ttl_ms/key/id;
kind defaults "sticky", kept TTL-expressive for a future config seam).
- run_agent.py: AIAgent gains notice_callback + notice_clear_callback slots and
_emit_notice / _emit_notice_clear emitters (swallow all callback errors — a
notice must never break the agent loop; no-op when unbound).
- agent/agent_init.py: thread both callbacks through init_agent.
- tui_gateway/server.py: bind both in _agent_cbs → notification.show / notification.clear
WS events (snake_case payload, matching the existing gateway-event convention).
- ui-tui/src/gatewayTypes.ts: notification.show / notification.clear arms on GatewayEvent.
- tests/run_agent/test_notice_spine.py: 15 tests (emitter fire + fail-open + no-op,
signature threading, TUI binding payload shape).
Messaging push is out of v1 (binds neither callback). CLI binding + the TUI render/
decode land with L4 (firing) and L5 (render) so turn-end flush is wired correctly.
* feat(credits): threshold reconciliation policy + tests (L4.1)
* feat(credits): wire threshold policy into capture + latch (L4.2)
After a fresh header parse, _capture_credits runs evaluate_credits_notices against
the agent's _credits_latch and emits the result — clears first, then shows (so a
recovered depletion clears before the "restored" success lands, and depleted wins
the latest-wins slot). Gated on a bound notice_callback: messaging (no callbacks)
still caches state for /usage but runs no policy. Parse stays fail-open (miss →
keep last-known); the eval/emit path warns on failure rather than swallowing, so a
depletion-notice bug can't vanish silently.
- run_agent.py: _capture_credits split into parse (swallow→miss) + policy (warn);
latch lazy-guarded (object.__new__ safety).
- agent/agent_init.py: init agent._credits_latch = {"active": set(), "seen_below_90": False}.
* feat(tui): render credits notices in the status bar (L5, Strategy B)
The TUI now renders the notification.show / notification.clear gateway events the
agent emits — a level-colored notice overrides the status/verb slot when not busy.
- Notice state machine on turnController (pendingNotice + dedicated noticeTimer +
show/clear/applyNotice/flushPendingNotice/clearNoticeState). createGatewayEventHandler
decodes the events and delegates.
- Render priority busy > notice > status (appChrome StatusRule); notice text rendered
verbatim (its glyph comes from the policy), shrinkable so it never clips model│ctx;
dev-credits banner + Δ segment preserved. UiState.notice is snake_case (matches wire).
- Busy-wins: a notice arriving mid-turn is held and flushed at the THREE turn-end sites
(recordMessageComplete / interruptTurn / recordError) — never idle(), which reset()
also calls (would leak across sessions); reset() clears instead.
- Dedicated noticeTimer (never statusTimer); TTL starts on visibility with an id-guard;
latest-wins cancels the prior timer; clear is key-matched (no-op on mismatch); a sticky
survives a turn (flush no-ops with no pending); session reset clears (no cross-session leak).
- 20 tests (handler/turnController logic incl. R3-C2 timer isolation + render priority).
* feat(credits): cold-start seed for new Nous sessions (L3)
A genuinely-new Nous session has no inference header yet, so seed credits state from
the authoritative GET /api/oauth/account snapshot at session start (in the new-session
branch of _restore_or_build_system_prompt — inline, since the on_session_start plugin
hook gets no agent reference). The seed runs the shared notice policy, so a session that
opens already depleted warns IMMEDIATELY rather than only after the first turn.
- Maps the nested account fields (paid_service_access → paid_access; total_usable /
subscription / purchased on paid_service_access_info; rollover on subscription), each
None-guarded; float dollars → micros via round(d*1e6), *_usd left "" (render formats
from micros — never synthesize a verbatim usd from a float).
- Magnitudes-only: no monthlyCredits on the endpoint → subscription_limit_* unset →
used_fraction None → no warn90 from the seed (% only once a header lands, per D-E).
- Provider-guarded to Nous; fail-open (any error leaves _credits_state None, never
blocks startup); paid_access unknown ⇒ True (never falsely depleted).
- run_agent.py: extracted the warm-path policy/emit block into a shared
_emit_credits_notices() so capture and the seed fire notices identically.
* feat(credits): /usage Nous credits magnitudes view + recovery trigger (L6)
Add Nous credit dollar magnitudes to /usage (subscription / top-up / total
+ rollover + renewal + portal CTA), magnitudes-only per v1 (no % until the
account endpoint exposes a denominator). Reuses the existing account-usage
render machinery via a new pure build_nous_credits_snapshot() that maps a
NousPortalAccountInfo to an AccountUsageSnapshot; no nous branch is added to
fetch_account_usage (keeps the per-provider boundary intact).
CLI /usage also doubles as a depletion-recovery trigger: a force_fresh
account fetch, kept in a SEPARATE local so it never clobbers the
header-sourced agent._credits_state (which alone carries used_fraction). If
paid access recovered while credits.depleted is latched and a notice
consumer is bound, it reuses agent._emit_credits_notices() to clear it.
Gateway /usage displays magnitudes only — messaging binds no notice
consumer, so it performs no recovery emit.
Fail-open throughout: any portal hiccup leaves /usage unaffected.
* refactor(credits): dedupe HERMES_DEV_CREDITS flag parse via shared helpers
The dev-flag truthy check was inlined in three places. Replace with the shared
utils.is_truthy_value (run_agent.py, tui_gateway/server.py — also drops a
redundant inline `import os`) and a hoisted DEV_CREDITS_MODE export in
ui-tui/src/config/env.ts (consumed by appChrome, which also stops recomputing the
env check on every render). Behaviour-preserving; identical truthy set.
* fix(credits): cut dead /usage recovery trigger + bound portal fetches (L6 review)
Adversarial review found the /usage depletion-recovery trigger dead AND broken:
the CLI binds no notice_clear_callback, the TUI runs /usage in a separate
slash-worker subprocess (its own agent/latch), and the no-clobber rule made it
evaluate stale paid_access anyway. Recovery already happens on the next inference
(warm path), so the trigger was redundant — remove it and stop the depleted
notice over-promising.
- cli.py: remove the dead recovery block; bound the /usage portal fetch with a
10s wall-clock timeout (ThreadPoolExecutor) like the per-provider fetch —
urllib's per-socket timeout is not a wall-clock guarantee.
- agent/credits_tracker.py: reword the depleted CTA to "run /usage for balance"
(no false recovery promise; /usage shows fresh magnitudes, sticky clears next turn).
- agent/conversation_loop.py: same wall-clock timeout on the cold-start seed fetch
so a stalled portal can't hang session startup; tidy its time import.
* chore(credits): dev notice-state fixtures (HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE)
Throwaway dev scaffolding to exercise the notice pipeline without real spend or
Redis seeding. Set HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE to a state name (healthy / sub_90pct
/ grant_exhausted / depleted / clear) or a file path whose contents name a state
(re-read each turn → flip states live for recovery testing). _capture_credits
injects the chosen CreditsState instead of parsing real headers and runs the
shared notice policy. Deletable with the rest of the HERMES_DEV_CREDITS scaffolding.
* feat(credits): /usage monthly-grant % gauge
The portal /api/oauth/account subscription block now carries monthly_credits
(the per-period grant allowance, the % denominator). The consumer parsed
monthly_charge but dropped monthly_credits, so /usage stayed magnitudes-only.
Capture monthly_credits into NousPortalSubscriptionInfo + _subscription_from_payload.
build_nous_credits_snapshot emits a Subscription usage window (real % used, routed
through the existing render machinery) when monthly_credits is a finite positive
denominator and credits_remaining is finite and <= cap; otherwise it degrades to
magnitudes-only (older portals, rollover-over-cap, or non-finite payloads).
Guards (adversarial-review-driven): reject non-finite operands (json.loads parses
bare NaN/Infinity by default → would render $nan + a false 100% used), reject
bools, guard div-by-zero (cap>0), and suppress the gauge when remaining > cap
(rollover spanning the period makes the cap a nonsensical denominator → the
$X-of-$Y detail would read as a contradiction). Debt (remaining<0) clamps to 100%.
Money rule preserved: the ratio + magnitudes are computed from numeric float
account fields via display formatting, never by parsing a server *_usd string
(there are none on these dataclasses).
13 gauge tests added (tests/agent/test_nous_credits_gauge.py).
* fix(credits): show /usage Nous block whenever a Nous account is present
/usage runs in a slash-worker subprocess whose resolved inference provider is
often not "nous" even when the user has a Nous account, so gating the Nous
credits block on (provider == "nous") hid it entirely — the account data was
fully available but never rendered.
Gate instead on "a Nous account is logged in": a cheap local auth-state lookup
(get_provider_auth_state('nous') has an access_token) decides whether to attempt
the portal fetch, regardless of which provider inference runs on. In the gateway
the block is also lifted out of the 'if provider:' scope so a Nous-credentialled
user with another (or no) resident inference provider still sees their balance.
Fail-open and the per-fetch wall-clock timeout are preserved.
* fix(credits): show /usage Nous block when there's no live agent (TUI slash-worker)
In the TUI, /usage runs in a slash-worker subprocess that resumes the session
WITHOUT building an agent (self.agent is None), so _show_usage early-returned
"(._.) No active agent" before ever reaching the Nous credits block — which is
agent-independent (a portal fetch gated on Nous auth-state). Extract the block
into _print_nous_credits_block() and run it at the no-agent / no-calls
early-returns too (returns True if it printed, so the fallback message only
shows when there's genuinely nothing).
Verified live against staging: the block + monthly-grant gauge now render in the
slash-worker /usage path (previously hidden). The plain CLI REPL + messaging
paths are unchanged (they have a live agent).
* feat(credits): escalating 50/75/90 usage bands (single status line)
Replace the lone 90%-used warning with three escalating bands (50 info, 75 warn,
90 warn) shown as ONE status-bar line: it displays the highest band the
subscription grant has crossed, replaces the line as usage climbs, steps back
down on recovery, and clears below 50%. No stacking, no per-turn churn.
Bands live in a tunable CREDITS_USAGE_BANDS list; the policy derives everything
from it. Single notice key (credits.usage) with a usage_band latch field so the
notice only re-emits when the band actually changes. The crossing gate
(seen_below_90) is preserved so a fresh live session that opens mid-range stays
quiet until it has been observed below the lowest band (cold-start primes it when
it wants an open-high warning). Denominator math unchanged: % = subscription
grant burn (cap - grant_remaining)/cap, clamped [0,1]; top-up never moves the %.
Migrated test_credits_policy.py to the new key + added TestUsageBands (climb,
step-down, recovery-clear, idempotent, inclusive boundaries).
* feat(credits): hydrate notices at session OPEN via shared seed (TUI + first-turn)
Notices previously only fired inside a conversation turn (first message), so a
session that opened already depleted / past a usage band showed nothing at
'ready'. Extract the cold-start seed into a shared seed_credits_at_session_start()
and call it (a) in the TUI/desktop agent build right after the notice callback is
wired (fires at 'ready', before any message) and (b) as the first-turn fallback in
conversation_loop. Idempotent (skips once _credits_state exists) and fail-open.
The seed now maps monthly_credits -> subscription_limit_micros +
denominator_kind='subscription_cap', so used_fraction is computable at seed time
and usage-band warnings (not just depletion) hydrate on open. Primes the crossing
latch so a session opening already in a band warns immediately. Degrades to
depletion-only when monthly_credits is absent (older portals).
Adds test_credits_cold_start.py covering open-at-band, depletion, debt, no-cap
degradation, and the shared seed (fires/idempotent/skips-non-nous).
* feat(credits): /usage monthly-grant % gauge + fixture support + TUI surfacing
agent/account_usage.py: build_nous_credits_snapshot emits a subscription %% gauge
when the portal supplies a positive, finite monthly_credits denominator with
remaining <= cap (guards reject NaN/Infinity and rollover-over-cap, which would
render $nan or a contradictory $X-of-$Y); degrades to magnitudes-only otherwise.
Adds shared nous_credits_lines() (auth-gated, wall-clock-bounded portal fetch) so
the CLI and TUI /usage render the same block, and _snapshot_from_credits_state()
so HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE drives /usage offline too.
TUI: session.usage RPC carries credits_lines (agent-independent) and the /usage
panel renders them regardless of API-call count or resume state — previously the
TUI's separate /usage implementation only showed token counts.
Money rule preserved: %% and magnitudes come from numeric float account fields via
display formatting, never by parsing a server *_usd string.
* feat(credits): CLI REPL inline notices (parity with TUI)
The plain CLI agent bound no notice callbacks, so credit notices were TUI-only.
Bind notice_callback/notice_clear_callback on the CLI AIAgent; _on_notice renders
a single level-colored line above the prompt (error red / warn yellow / success
green / info dim) via _cprint, and seed credits at session open so a depletion or
usage-band warning shows before the first message — the same hydration the TUI
got. _on_notice_clear is a no-op (the REPL prints lines, no persistent slot).
* test(credits): add sub_50pct + sub_75pct dev fixtures for the new usage bands
The fixture set jumped 10%% -> 90%%; add sub_50pct (uf 0.5 -> band 50 info) and
sub_75pct (uf 0.75 -> band 75 warn) so the new escalating bands are exercisable
via HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE across all three surfaces (notice, session-open
seed, /usage gauge).
* fix(credits): usage-band notice clears on next prompt (not sticky-forever)
A 50/75/90 usage heads-up was sticky and camped the status bar indefinitely. Clear
the visible credits.usage notice when a new turn starts (startMessage), so it shows
until your next prompt then yields. The server latch is unchanged, so it won't
re-nag at the same band — it only re-shows when the band actually changes (climb)
or clears when usage drops below the lowest band. Depletion stays sticky.
* refactor(credits): consolidate the /usage credits block behind nous_credits_lines()
The CLI (_print_nous_credits_block) and the messaging gateway (_handle_usage_command)
each re-implemented the auth-gate + portal fetch + render, and both bypassed the
dev-fixture short-circuit that only the TUI honored — so /usage ignored
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE on the CLI and in chat. Route both through the shared
agent.account_usage.nous_credits_lines() helper: one fetch/render path, one auth
gate, and the fixture works on every surface (~60 fewer duplicated lines).
The gateway usage test recorded only the last asyncio.to_thread call; /usage now
dispatches both the account fetch and the credits fetch, so it records every call
and matches the account fetch by its provider arg.
* fix(credits): keep the /usage gauge type-safe and log its fail-open path
_is_finite_num is now a TypeGuard[float], so the type checker narrows the gauge
operands (monthly_credits / credits_remaining) and the magnitudes passed to
_fmt_usd through it — no more None-operand warnings on the arithmetic. Add a debug
breadcrumb on the nous_credits_lines portal-fetch fail-open so a dead /usage block
is diagnosable in agent.log without a dev flag.
* fix(credits): harden the header tracker — prod-leak gate, hot-path probe, fire-and-forget seed
- Prod-leak guard: dev fixtures (HERMES_DEV_CREDITS_FIXTURE) now also require
HERMES_DEV_CREDITS, so a stray fixture var can't surface fabricated balances on a
real account. Matches the documented run workflow (both vars set together).
- Hot-path probe: parse_credits_headers checks for the version sentinel header
before allocating a lowercased copy of the response headers — skips that work on
every non-Nous API call. Behaviour-identical and still case-insensitive.
- Fire-and-forget seed: the real portal fetch in seed_credits_at_session_start now
runs in a daemon thread, so a slow/unreachable portal never delays session "ready"
(previously blocked up to 10s). The dev-fixture path stays synchronous; the thread
re-checks idempotency before hydrating (a live header may land first).
- Diagnostics: debug breadcrumbs on the parse and seed fail-open paths so a crashed
parser / dead seed is distinguishable from a legitimate no-headers miss.
Cold-start tests set HERMES_DEV_CREDITS alongside the fixture to match the gate.
* test(tui): fix env-timing in the StatusRule dev-credits assertion
DEV_CREDITS_MODE is read once at module load (config/env), so mutating
process.env.HERMES_DEV_CREDITS inside the test couldn't flip it — the dev-banner
assertion only passed if the env was exported before vitest started, and failed in a
normal run. Move that assertion to a sibling file that mocks config/env with
DEV_CREDITS_MODE: true (scoped, no module-reset / React-identity hazard).
* test(credits): cover the dev-fixture /usage render and usage-band clear-on-prompt
- _snapshot_from_credits_state (the offline /usage renderer) had no direct test:
lock the gauge math, the verbatim *_usd magnitudes, the depletion line and the
fixture marker, plus the no-cap (no gauge) and None-state cases.
- turnController.startMessage had no test for clearing the credits.usage notice on
the next prompt while leaving credits.depleted sticky.
* feat(credits): deliver credit notices over messaging gateways
Bind notice_callback/notice_clear_callback on the per-turn gateway agent
so usage-band / depletion / restored notices reach Telegram/Discord/Slack/
etc. Previously the messaging gateway bound neither callback, so the agent's
_emit_credits_notices early-returned and a chat user crossing a band got
nothing unless they ran /usage manually.
- render_notice_line(): AgentNotice -> single plaintext line (level glyph +
text), plaintext-only so it renders uniformly without per-platform escaping.
Fail-soft on malformed/empty notices.
- Standalone push for every notice (messaging has no persistent status bar):
route through the shared _deliver_platform_notice rail (honors private/
public delivery + thread metadata), scheduled onto the gateway loop via
safe_schedule_threadsafe from the agent's sync worker thread — same pattern
as _status_callback_sync.
- The fired-once latch lives on the cached (reused-in-place) agent and
persists across turns, so a band crosses once -> one push, no per-turn
re-nag. Re-fires only after idle-eviction rebuilds the agent (a reminder).
- Recovery ('Credit access restored') rides the show path (emitted as a
success notice, not a clear). notice_clear_callback is a no-op: a sent
platform message can't be cleanly retracted.
Tests: render glyph/levels/fail-soft + public/private delivery seam through
_deliver_platform_notice + no-adapter no-op.
* fix(credits): don't double the glyph on messaging notices
render_notice_line prepended a per-level glyph, but the notice policy already
bakes the glyph into the text (and the TUI + CLI render it verbatim) — so every
credit notice over messaging came out doubled ("⚠ ⚠ Credits 90% used",
"⛔ ✕ Credit access paused"). Emit the text verbatim instead; drop the now-dead
level→glyph map.
The render tests fed glyph-less text (and the success case only checked
startswith), so the doubling slipped through. Rework them around the verbatim
contract and add an end-to-end regression that runs real evaluate_credits_notices
output through render_notice_line and asserts the line is returned unchanged.
Switching the main model never touches auxiliary slot pins (they're
independent, sticky per-task overrides). A user who switches main away
from a now-unpaid provider keeps paying 402s on every background aux call
until they manually reset those pins — silently, with no UI signal.
- /api/model/set scope:'main' now returns stale_aux: slots still pinned
to a provider different from the new main (additive field).
- Desktop Model Settings shows a switch-time notice after Apply AND a
persistent banner when any loaded aux slot mismatches the main provider,
both wired to the existing 'Reset all to main' action.
- Never auto-clears pins — a dedicated cheaper aux model is a legitimate
config; surface-and-offer instead of nuking.
- Fixes a stale pre-existing assertion in the panel test (main model now
renders via selectors, not a standalone label).
* 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(dashboard): populate cron delivery dropdown from configured platforms
The dashboard cron-create/edit dropdown hardcoded five delivery options
(local, telegram, discord, slack, email), so users on Matrix — or any
other backend-supported platform — had no way to pick their channel even
though the cron scheduler delivers to all of them. It also offered
Telegram/Discord/etc. to users who never set those up.
- cron/scheduler.py: add cron_delivery_targets() — the single source of
truth. Intersects gateway-configured platforms with cron-deliverable
ones and reports whether each platform's home channel is set.
- web_server.py: GET /api/cron/delivery-targets exposes that list (+ the
implicit local option) to the dashboard.
- CronPage.tsx: both modals render options from the endpoint. Configured
platforms missing a home channel still appear, annotated "set a home
channel first" (option B), so the user knows what to fix. Edit modal
preserves a job's current target even if it's no longer configured.
Local-only state shows a "configure a platform under Channels" hint.
Validation: scheduler + endpoint E2E'd with a Matrix gateway (home set
and unset); 5 new tests; tests/cron + tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server
green (366 passed).
The terminal `hermes model` wizard (_model_flow_named_custom) always
live-probed a custom provider's /models endpoint, ignoring the configured
`models:` list. For plans whose endpoint exposes a large catalog (e.g. Baidu
Qianfan Coding Plan returns 100+ models for a 2-3 model plan) the picker
flooded with models the user can't use.
This wires `discover_models` (and the `models:` list) through
_named_custom_provider_map into the flow and honors `discover_models: false`
the same way the slash-command picker (model_switch.py sections 3 & 4) does:
- Default stays True — live probe, no behaviour change.
- discover_models: false → use the configured `models:` list verbatim,
skip the probe (string 'false'/'no'/'0' normalised to False).
- If the probe is on but returns empty, fall back to the configured list
instead of forcing manual entry.
Closes#18726
Section 3 (user `providers:`) already honors `discover_models: false` to
skip live /models discovery and keep the explicit `models:` list. Section 4
(`custom_providers:` list) did not — `should_probe` ignored the field, so any
grouped custom provider with an api_key always had its configured subset
replaced by the full live /models catalog.
This adds the same `discover_models` support to section 4:
- Default True — no behaviour change for existing configs.
- `discover_models: false` keeps the explicit `models:` list even when an
api_key is present.
- String values ("false"/"no"/"0") are normalised to False, matching
section 3.
- If any entry in a grouped endpoint opts out, the whole group opts out.
Use case: endpoints that expose a full aggregator catalog via /models but
only serve a configured subset.
Salvaged from #29810 — rebased onto current main. The PR's other change
(`key_env` resolution in section 4) landed independently in commit aa283d1e4
(custom provider picker credential isolation), so only the discover_models
portion is carried here.

Widens ViewWay's #20741 fix to the sibling config surface: a
custom_providers entry can pin its own output cap via max_output_tokens
(or max_tokens). _get_named_custom_provider now lifts it onto the
resolved runtime at all three return sites, and the gateway uses it as a
fallback only when the documented global model.max_tokens isn't set, so
the global key always wins.
Precedence: HERMES_MAX_TOKENS > model.max_tokens > provider
max_output_tokens > None. Closes the same #20741 truncation for users who
configure the cap per-provider rather than globally.
Picks up the intent of #19782 (alexcam1901), reimplemented to feed
ViewWay's max_tokens pipeline.
Follow-up to the read-routing fix: make remote-profile sessions fully
first-class, not just resumable.
Mutations (rename/archive/delete) went through the same hermes:api handler but
never carried the owning profile, so they hit the local primary's state.db --
which has no row for a remote session. Deleting/archiving/renaming a remote
session silently no-op'd or 404'd, and the row reappeared on next refresh.
- hermes.ts: setSessionArchived/deleteSession/renameSession take the owning
profile and pass it as request.profile so Electron routes to that profile's
backend (matching the read path). Callers now forward session.profile.
- main.cjs: generalize the intercept (read -> request) to also reroute
DELETE/PATCH on /api/sessions/{id} for remote profiles, stripping the profile
param (the remote serves its own state.db; no cross-profile semantics there).
- web_server.py: DELETE /api/sessions/{id} gains a profile param for parity with
GET/PATCH (local cross-profile delete).
Also fix the unified-list merge: it concatenated each remote's page onto the
primary's without re-windowing, so a limit=N request could return up to
N*(1+remotes) rows and report the primary's (stale) total. Now it over-fetches
limit+offset from each remote (from offset 0), re-sorts by recency, re-windows
to the page, and recomputes total/profile_totals from the remote counts.
Verified live against a remote backend: rename/archive/delete mutate the remote
db; page 1 windows to limit, profile_totals reflect remote counts, page 2 has no
overlap with page 1. tsc -b clean; connection-config tests pass.

* perf(/model): prewarm picker provider-models cache in background
The no-args /model picker calls list_authenticated_providers(), which
fetches each authenticated provider's live /v1/models list serially. On a
cold or stale (>1h TTL) cache that blocks ~1.5s on the user's critical path
the first time /model is opened in a session.
Warm that exact path off-thread during the idle window right after the CLI
banner is shown: a once-per-process daemon thread runs
list_authenticated_providers() to populate provider_models_cache.json for
every authed provider. By the time the user types /model, the picker hits
the warm disk cache (~136ms vs ~1500ms).
Process-level Event guard (mirrors run_agent's _openrouter_prewarm_done)
ensures at most one thread per process; fully exception-isolated so an
offline/no-creds provider can never affect the session.

* fix(completion): remove /model <arg> autocomplete from CLI/TUI
The TUI frontend already suppressed /model argument completion in favor of
the two-step ModelPicker (useCompletion.ts), but the CLI prompt_toolkit
completer and the gateway-backed complete.slash RPC (TUI + desktop) still
emitted model aliases and probed LM Studio on every keystroke.
Drops the /model branch in SlashCommandCompleter.get_completions, the
_model_completions method, and the LM Studio probe/cache helper that only
fed it. Command-name completion (/mod -> model) and sibling arg completers
(/skin, /personality) are untouched. Removes the now-dead TestModelTabCompletion
tests.
PR #39780 made ensure_uv() return a _UvResult — a str subclass whose
__iter__ yields (path, fresh_bootstrap) so old `uv_bin, fresh = ensure_uv()`
call sites survive the update boundary. That trick is unsafe on Windows.
The dependency installer passes uv straight into the command list
(`[uv_bin, "pip", "install", ...]`). On Windows, subprocess serializes argv
via subprocess.list2cmdline, which iterates every entry *as a string*
(`for c in arg`). Because _UvResult overrides __iter__, that iteration yields
(path, fresh_bootstrap) instead of characters, injecting the bool into the
command line and crashing the first update with:
TypeError: sequence item 1: expected str instance, bool found
This bites the common single-assignment caller (`uv_bin = ensure_uv()`) on
its first update after #39780: the freshly pulled _UvResult flows into the
old in-memory call site and into the argv. Reported in the field on a
~10-commits-behind Windows install.
A single return value cannot satisfy both legacy 2-target unpacking and
Windows char-iteration — both use the iterator protocol with contradictory
results. So gate the wrapper to POSIX: Windows returns a plain str/None
(the historical, subprocess-safe contract). POSIX keeps _UvResult and the
#39780 update-boundary fix.
Tests: list2cmdline canary proving _UvResult breaks Windows, plus Windows
returns-plain-str and POSIX dual-contract coverage.
* fix(update): make ensure_uv() survive the update boundary (no first-run crash)
`hermes update` runs the `ensure_uv()` call site from the old, already-imported
`hermes_cli.main` against the *freshly pulled* `managed_uv` (managed_uv is only
ever lazily imported, so it loads from disk post-pull). `ensure_uv()`'s return
arity flipped from a single path string to `(path, fresh_bootstrap)` (4df280d51)
and back to a single string (fb853a178). Installs parked on a 2-tuple release
unpack `uv_bin, fresh_bootstrap = ensure_uv()` against the new single-value
module and crash the first update with
`ValueError: not enough values to unpack (expected 2, got 1)` — inside the
dependency-install step, *before* the PR #39763 subprocess hand-off can run.
Return a `_UvResult` (a `str` subclass) that is usable as the bare path AND
unpackable as `(path|None, fresh_bootstrap)`. Missing uv is `""` (falsy) instead
of `None` so legacy 2-target call sites can unpack a failure without raising,
while `if not uv_bin` keeps working for single-value callers. fresh_bootstrap is
always False (the rebuild-venv path it gated was scrapped in fb853a178).
* docs(update): correct the verified error string + mechanism for ensure_uv()
A hermetic repro (old 2-target call site vs the freshly-pulled single-value
module) shows the first-update crash is exactly the string from PR #39763's
report: `ValueError: too many values to unpack (expected 2)` — not "not enough".
The returned path is a plain `str`, which is iterable, so `uv_bin, fresh =
ensure_uv()` walks its characters; the failure path's `None` return raises
`TypeError: cannot unpack non-iterable NoneType`. Both are fixed by `_UvResult`.
Comment/test wording updated to match; no behavior change.
* Revert "fix(update): require managed marker before destructive clean"
This reverts commit c8e80cd0bf.
* Revert "fix(update): stop stash/restore from clobbering desktop source on managed clones (#38542)"
This reverts commit 8a19884bf3.
* chore(install): keep npm ci desktop-build fix after stash revert
The destructive-clean reverts (#38542/#39568) pulled the desktop
workspace install back to bare `npm install`. The npm ci -> npm install
fallback is orthogonal build-correctness (avoids the Windows
workspace-hoisting flake where install reports up-to-date against a
stale marker while node_modules is empty, breaking tsc -b). Preserve it.
* feat(update): settable stash-or-discard for non-interactive local changes
Adds updates.non_interactive_local_changes (stash | discard, default
stash). Governs ONLY non-interactive updates (desktop/chat app, gateway,
--yes) — interactive terminal updates always stash-and-ask, unchanged.
- config.py: new key under existing updates section; _config_version 26->27.
- main.py: _cmd_update_impl detects non-interactive (gateway/--yes/no-TTY),
reads the setting; new _discard_stashed_changes() drops the stash
(stash-and-drop, never reset --hard/clean -fd, so ignored paths survive).
Post-pull restore site branches on it; the bail-out and up-to-date
restores always preserve work.
- web_server.py + apps/desktop settings: exposes it as a stash/discard
select (Advanced section, In-App Update Local Changes).
- docs + tests (discard drops, stash restores, interactive ignores setting,
missing section defaults to stash).
* fix(install.ps1): stash/restore instead of reset --hard on Windows update
The PR reverted the destructive update path to stash/restore everywhere
except scripts/install.ps1, whose managed-clone update path still ran
`git reset --hard HEAD` before checkout — silently destroying agent-edited
tracked source on Windows (the same #38542 data-loss class the PR fixes).
- Replace `git reset --hard HEAD` with stash-before-checkout +
restore-after-checkout, mirroring install.sh. Untracked files are
included so agent-created dirs (e.g. tinker-atropos/) survive.
- Keep `core.autocrlf false` (it prevents the phantom CRLF dirt that made
the stash necessary; it's also load-bearing for a clean restore).
- Wrap all three checkout modes (Commit/Tag/Branch); Branch case now uses
`git pull --ff-only` so local commits are never clobbered.
- Only prompt to restore when a real console is attached (UserInteractive
+ non-redirected stdin/stdout + ConsoleHost); the desktop Update button
and bootstrap have no usable console, so they default to restore and
never hang on Read-Host.
- On restore conflict or a failed update, the stash is preserved with
recovery instructions — work is never silently dropped.
Validated on Windows (PowerShell 5.1, git 2.54): AST parse clean;
E2E non-conflicting restore applies+drops cleanly with ignored paths
(node_modules) untouched; conflicting restore preserves the stash.

* 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).
* feat(delegation): uncap max_spawn_depth to match max_concurrent_children
Removed the hard ceiling of 3 on delegation.max_spawn_depth. Depth now has
a floor of 1 and no upper limit, mirroring max_concurrent_children. Cost
(each level multiplies API spend) is the practical limiter, not a constant.
- delegate_tool.py: drop _MAX_SPAWN_DEPTH_CAP, _get_max_spawn_depth() floors
at 1 instead of clamping to [1,3]; depth-limit error string reworded
- config.py / cli-config.yaml.example: doc comments say floor 1, no ceiling
- docs (configuration, delegation, delegation-patterns): range 1-3 -> >=1
- tests: convert clamp-above-3 change-detector into a no-ceiling invariant,
drop the _MAX_SPAWN_DEPTH_CAP==3 snapshot assert, fix warning-text assert
* feat(discord): voice-channel mixer — ambient idle bed + verbal acks that overlap TTS
Discord voice mode can now feel conversational: the bot speaks a short
acknowledgement before it starts working, and a subtle ambient 'thinking' bed
plays underneath while tools run, ducking under speech and swelling back — the
Grok-voice-mode feel.
discord.py plays only one audio stream per voice connection, so this adds a
software mixer (VoiceMixer, a discord.AudioSource) installed once per guild on
join. It sums an ambient loop, verbal acks, and TTS replies into that single
20ms/48kHz/stereo stream (numpy int16 add + clip), so they overlap instead of
stop-and-swap. Speech ducks the ambient gain down and releases it smoothly.
- plugins/platforms/discord/voice_mixer.py: VoiceMixer + MixerChild (gain,
loop, fade, duck/release), decode_to_pcm (ffmpeg), synth_ambient_pcm (no
asset needed — synthesised pad).
- adapter: install mixer on join, tear down on leave, route
play_in_voice_channel through the mixer (legacy one-shot path kept as
fallback), play_ack_in_voice, voice_mixer_active. Defensive getattr for the
object.__new__ test helpers.
- gateway/run.py: tool_start_callback fires a one-time verbal ack on the first
tool call of a turn when in a voice channel (independent of the text
tool-progress gate). No system-prompt or message-flow changes.
- config: discord.voice_fx.* (OFF by default; ambient/duck/speech gains, ack
phrases). All in config.yaml, not .env.
- docs + tests (mixer unit + adapter integration).
Verified: 19 new tests pass, existing voice suite green (2 pre-existing
davey-module env failures unchanged), and a real-mixer E2E confirms ambient
streams, TTS overlaps it, acks layer in, and teardown is clean.
* fix(discord): make voice mixer numpy import lazy (numpy is voice-extra-only)
numpy ships in the optional 'voice' extra, not [all,dev], so a module-level
'import numpy' broke CI test collection (and would break the always-imported
Discord adapter on any install without the voice extra). Defer numpy to the
functions that actually mix audio via _require_numpy(); guard the test module
with pytest.importorskip('numpy').
Follow-up on the salvaged fix: point the Nous silent-default override at
deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash (a cheap chat model) instead of the nvidia
nemotron entry. Keeps the no-model-configured fallback off the priciest
flagship while landing on a low-cost, broadly-capable default.
When a provider is configured but no model is selected (e.g. a profile sets
provider: nous with no model), the gateway/CLI fall back to
get_default_model_for_provider(), which returned the first curated catalog
entry. The Nous Portal list is ordered most-capable-first, so entry [0] is
anthropic/claude-opus-4.8 — the single most expensive model ($5/$25 per Mtok).
A misconfigured profile therefore silently routed every call to the flagship
and billed it for traffic the user never opted into.
Pin the silent (non-interactive) default for metered aggregators to the cheapest
curated tier via _PROVIDER_SILENT_DEFAULT_OVERRIDES so a missing model can never
auto-escalate to the flagship. The interactive default (GUI onboarding /
`hermes model`) keeps using the richer free/paid-tier-aware resolver.
Fixes the unexpected anthropic/claude-opus-4.8 charges reported for a
free-tier Nous account whose new profile had no default model.
`cron_list` read `job.get("repeat", {})`, but the dict-default only
applies to a MISSING key. A one-shot job persisted with `"repeat": null`
returns None, and the next `.get("times")` raised AttributeError, taking
down the whole `cron list` output. Coalesce with `or {}` so a
present-but-null repeat renders as ∞ like the other cron readers already
do. Adds a regression test.

Inside the published Docker image, both the `--tui` banner and the
dashboard-embedded TUI report `1 commit behind — run docker pull
nousresearch/hermes-agent:latest to update` even though the container
has no git repo and no way to compute a commit delta.
Root cause: two independent update-detection paths, only one of which
knows it's running in Docker.
- `recommended_update_command()` → `detect_install_method()` reads the
`.install_method` stamp that `docker/stage2-hook.sh` writes at boot →
returns "docker", so the *command string* correctly says `docker pull`.
- `banner.check_for_updates()` (the source of the "N commits behind"
*count*) has no notion of the docker install method. It only detects a
build via `HERMES_REVISION` (nix-only, unset in the image) or a `.git`
dir (excluded from the image by .dockerignore). Neither matches, so it
silently falls through to `check_via_pypi()`, whose PyPI-version
mismatch flag (1) is then rendered verbatim by the CLI banner
(build_welcome_banner), the Ink TUI badge (branding.tsx), and `hermes
version` as "1 commit behind" — a phantom count, no commit math
involved. `hermes update` already refuses to run in-place in the
container.
The dashboard's REST `/api/hermes/update/check` endpoint already
short-circuits docker (returns behind=None + the docker guidance). This
mirrors that guard inside `check_for_updates()` so the banner/TUI/version
surfaces agree: when `detect_install_method() == "docker"`, return None
before any git/pypi probe (and before writing a cache entry). None makes
the render guards (`typeof === 'number' && > 0`, `behind and behind > 0`)
stay false, so the badge/line disappears entirely — matching the System
page.
Fix is in one place (check_for_updates) because all three consumers route
through it via get_update_result()/_update_result.
Tests: test_check_for_updates_docker_returns_none asserts None + no
git/pypi probe + no cache write; test_check_for_updates_non_docker_still_checks
guards against over-broadening (pip still version-checks). Mutation-tested:
removing the guard fails the docker test.
Verified against a real `docker build` of the image — see PR description.
The desktop OAuth remote-gateway path gated connectivity on
hasOauthSessionCookie(), which checks only the access-token cookie
(hermes_session_at, ~15 min TTL). The moment that cookie's Max-Age
lapsed, Electron's cookie jar dropped it and both resolveRemoteBackend()
and sanitizeDesktopConnectionConfig() reported "not signed in" — forcing
a full IDP re-login every ~15 min — even though a valid 24h refresh-token
cookie (hermes_session_rt) was sitting in the same jar.
The desktop OAuth code (2026-06-04) was written against the obsolete
"contract v1 issues no refresh token" model, two days after #37247
re-introduced server-side transparent refresh: Portal now issues a 24h
rotating, reuse-detected refresh token, and the gateway middleware
(_attempt_refresh) rotates a fresh AT from the RT on the next
authenticated request. So an expired-AT/live-RT session is fully
connectable — the desktop just never let the request through.
Fix:
- connection-config.cjs: add RT_COOKIE_VARIANTS + cookiesHaveLiveSession()
(true when EITHER a live AT or RT cookie is present). Keep
cookiesHaveSession() AT-only for callers that need that specific signal.
- main.cjs: add hasLiveOauthSession(); resolveRemoteBackend()'s oauth
branch now early-outs only when NEITHER cookie is present, otherwise
uses the ws-ticket mint as the authoritative liveness probe (that POST
carries the RT cookie and triggers the server-side AT rotation). A real
401 still surfaces as needsOauthLogin. Settings indicator + oauth-logout
report against the same AT-or-RT notion.
- Remove the stale "contract v1 / NO refresh token" docstrings in
cookies.py and the verify_session comments in the Nous provider that
contradicted #37247.
Tests: +57 lines in connection-config.test.cjs covering the RT-only
"still connectable" case. node --test: 32/32. dashboard-auth +
nous-provider Python suites: 223/223.
Note: server-side files (hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/, plugins/dashboard_auth/)
are comment/docstring-only here, but this touches outside apps/desktop/ so
it needs Teknium review.
Resolve conflicts in desktop settings/cron/messaging/sidebar: adopt main's
ListRow + actions-menu refactors for credential rows; keep our profileColor
import on the sidebar. Drop the now-orphaned Tip-based helpers.
Adds qwen/qwen3.7-plus directly under qwen/qwen3.7-max in both the
OpenRouter curated catalog (OPENROUTER_MODELS) and the Nous portal
catalog (_PROVIDER_MODELS['nous']), then regenerates the docs-hosted
model-catalog.json manifest from those source lists.
