Follow-up on kshitijk4poor's cherry-picked references:
- pitfalls.md rewritten from the raw-socket blender_exec() frame to the
MCP-tool frame (dropped 'MCP server is optional, talk to the socket
directly' — now the anti-pattern; dropped TCP-helper internals items;
kept all bpy/addon knowledge: empty code results in 5.x, temp-file
readback, ops-vs-data context, engine names by version, GPU setup)
- recipes.md: blender_exec -> execute_blender_code in the agent-side
verification snippet
- SKILL.md: reference-file table added to Quick Reference, version
2.1.0, kshitijk4poor added to authors
- docs page regenerated (scoped to this skill)
Fixes#62452. Two amplifiers turned one slow auxiliary route into a
per-turn multi-minute stall:
1. Fallback candidates inherited the exact effective_timeout the primary
was called with. When the primary's deadline was short (tuned or
already burned), an independently healthy fallback died on the same
clock — the reporter's 163k-token compression needed ~90s on the
fallback and got the primary's 30s, every turn. fallback_chain
entries may now declare their own 'timeout' (seconds); both fallback
candidate call sites (sync + async) resolve it via
_fallback_entry_timeout, label-scoped so only configured-chain
candidates are affected. No entry timeout → task-level timeout,
preserving existing behavior.
2. A session whose transcript structurally cannot be summarized within
the deadline re-attempted every 60s, re-burning the full timeout on
every subsequent turn. Consecutive timeout-class failures now
escalate the cooldown 60s → 300s → 900s (capped); any successful
summary or session reset clears the streak. Timeout classification
takes precedence over the streaming-closed 30s rung ('timed out'
also matches _is_connection_error) and now recognizes the SDK's
'Request timed out.' phrasing.
Fail-safe behavior is unchanged: all messages are preserved when every
candidate fails; the cooldown only spaces out retries.
Follow-ups on the salvaged #20096 profile-routing feature:
- _profile_name_for_source now returns None unless gateway.multiplex_profiles
is on. Routing stamps source.profile, which namespaces session/batch keys,
but the profile-scoped agent run only activates under multiplexing — without
the gate, configured routes with multiplexing off split batch/session keys
into agent:<profile> while the agent still ran from agent:main.
- Widen the profile-aware _text_batch_key fix from Discord to every adapter
that builds batch keys via build_session_key (telegram, whatsapp, matrix,
feishu, wecom, weixin) — routing is platform-generic, so the batch-key
namespace fix must be too.
- Downgrade the no-route-matched log from INFO to DEBUG (fired on every
unrouted inbound message).
- GatewayConfig.to_dict(): serialize profile_routes as plain dicts
(ProfileRoute dataclasses are not JSON-safe).
- Docs: correct the 'independent of multiplexing' claim in
docs/profile-routing.md (routing requires multiplexing), fix the
platform-only specificity row (0, not 1), and document profile_routes in
website/docs/user-guide/multi-profile-gateways.md.
- Tests: pin the multiplex gate (routes ignored when off, active when on,
build_source end-to-end stays in agent:main when off).
The optional blender-mcp skill predates the blender MCP catalog entry
(#64463) and taught the agent to hand-roll raw TCP JSON to the addon's
socket on port 9876 from execute_code — bypassing the catalog's version
pinning and install-time tool curation.
Reworked to v2.0.0 as the companion skill for the catalog entry:
- prerequisites now go through 'hermes mcp install blender'
- interaction surface is the four curated MCP tools, not a raw socket
- keeps the valuable content: addon setup, bpy recipes (materials,
keyframes, render-to-file), pitfalls (timeouts, absolute paths,
object mode), plus new pitfalls (xvfb headless, no-sandbox warning,
remote-host path resolution)
- explicit anti-pattern note: do not hand-roll TCP to 9876
- description shortened to <=60 chars per skill authoring standards
alireza78a's original bpy patterns and pitfalls are preserved and
credited. Docs page regenerated via generate-skill-docs.py (scoped to
this skill only; unrelated generator drift left untouched).
The just-merged auxiliary.<task>.reasoning_effort shorthand applied
ensemble-wide to MoA (one value for every advisor) — wrong granularity.
Per-slot preset config supersedes it:
moa:
presets:
deep_review:
reference_models:
- {provider: ..., model: ..., reasoning_effort: low}
- {provider: ..., model: ..., reasoning_effort: xhigh}
aggregator:
{provider: ..., model: ..., reasoning_effort: high}
- Remove reasoning_effort from the moa_reference/moa_aggregator
DEFAULT_CONFIG blocks; _get_task_extra_body now warns-and-ignores the
key on MoA tasks, pointing at the preset config
- Guard tests: MoA aux blocks must not regrow the key; task-level value
is rejected with the pointer warning
- Docs: configuration.md notes the MoA exception and links the MoA page
Every auxiliary task block (vision, web_extract, compression,
title_generation, curator, background_review, moa_reference, ...) now
accepts a reasoning_effort shorthand:
auxiliary:
compression:
reasoning_effort: low
vision:
reasoning_effort: none
_get_task_extra_body() folds it into extra_body.reasoning, which every
auxiliary wire already translates: chat.completions passes it through,
the Codex Responses adapter maps it to top-level reasoning/include, and
the Anthropic auxiliary adapter now forwards it into
build_anthropic_kwargs(reasoning_config=...) (previously hardcoded None).
An explicit extra_body.reasoning on the same task wins over the
shorthand. Invalid levels are ignored with a warning. Empty string
(the shipped default) is a no-op — zero behavior change.
Config: reasoning_effort added to all 16 auxiliary task blocks in
DEFAULT_CONFIG (no version bump — deep-merge handles new keys).
Add agent.reasoning_overrides dict to config.yaml. Users can now set
a reasoning_effort per model, overriding the global agent.reasoning_effort.
Example:
agent:
reasoning_effort: "medium" # global default
reasoning_overrides:
"openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4.5": "xhigh"
"openai/gpt-5": "low"
"claude-sonnet-4.6": "high" # bare model name also works
The helper is spelling-tolerant: override keys match regardless of
provider prefix or dots-vs-dashes normalization, so users can write
keys in any sensible form and they'll match.
Resolution priority:
1. Session-scoped /reasoning --session override (gateway only; unchanged)
2. Per-model override from agent.reasoning_overrides (spelling-tolerant)
3. Global agent.reasoning_effort (existing)
4. Provider default (unchanged)
Wired into:
- CLI startup (cli.py)
- Messaging gateway agent construction (gateway/run.py)
- Desktop/TUI _load_reasoning_config (tui_gateway/server.py)
- Cron job scheduler (cron/scheduler.py)
- /model mid-session switch (agent/agent_runtime_helpers.py)
+ _primary_runtime now tracks reasoning_config for correct fallback recovery
- Fallback activation (agent/chat_completion_helpers.py::try_activate_fallback)
+ Re-resolves reasoning_config for the fallback model (best-effort)
Closes#21256 (per-model reasoning_effort defaults).
Note: no hermes config set agent.reasoning_overrides.<model> support;
users edit the YAML directly. _set_nested splits on "." and would
corrupt model keys containing version dots.
Return actionable errors when HERMES_WRITE_SAFE_ROOT blocks a path instead of
labeling every denial as a protected credential file. Wire the helper through
write_file, patch, delete/move, and the Copilot ACP shim; sync docs examples.
Document that safe-root violations are hard-blocked (not approval-gated),
add a security guide section for write_file/patch guards, and link cron
and verifier docs so users trust the footer over agent summaries.
- Nudge text now warns that repeated protocol violations will block the
task and require manual intervention, so the model understands the
consequence of ignoring the nudge.
- Kanban docs restructured to clearly separate the two defense layers:
agent-side prevention (nudge, from #64350) and dispatcher-side
recovery (bounded retry, from this PR).
- Two new integration tests verifying the nudge mentions blocking and
that the agent-side and dispatcher-side budgets are independent.
Fold in kevinb361's suggested lifecycle wording (#61817 conceded in favor of
this PR) and update the second stale site his sweep didn't cover: the
task-events table still said the dispatcher 'auto-blocks immediately instead
of retrying'. Both now describe the violation-only streak: protocol_violation
fires on every violation (its payload marker feeds the budget), below-budget
runs return the task to ready, and gave_up + auto-block happen only when the
consecutive streak reaches _PROTOCOL_VIOLATION_FAILURE_LIMIT (default 3,
per-task max_retries overriding).
OpenAI lets ChatGPT-plan Codex users bank rate-limit reset credits, but
until now they could only be redeemed from the Codex CLI/app or the
website. This wires the same backend API into Hermes:
- /usage on the openai-codex provider now shows "You have N resets
banked - use /usage reset to activate" (parsed from the
rate_limit_reset_credits field the /usage endpoint already returns).
- New /usage reset subcommand (CLI + gateway) redeems one banked
credit via POST .../rate-limit-reset-credits/consume with a UUID
idempotency key, mirroring codex-rs backend-client semantics
(PathStyle /wham vs /api/codex, ChatGPT-Account-Id header,
reset/nothing_to_reset/no_credit/already_redeemed outcomes).
- Guard: redemption is refused while no rate-limit window is fully
exhausted, since a banked reset restores the FULL 5h + weekly
allowance and spending it early wastes it. /usage reset --force
overrides. Zero banked credits and non-codex providers are refused
with clear messages; nothing_to_reset reports the credit was NOT
spent.
- i18n: new gateway.usage.unknown_subcommand / reset_wrong_provider
keys across all 16 locales; docs updated (cli.md, messaging index).
Tested with unit tests plus a real-socket E2E against a local fake
Codex backend exercising redeem/guard/force and the /usage hint.
Docs portion of PR #57067: 'bot connects but never replies' section
pointing at the gateway.log warning and the allowlist/policy knobs.

Restructures the five parallel export sections into a single 'Export
Sessions' section: a format table (jsonl/md/qmd/html/trace + --only
user-prompts), one shared-filters paragraph covering all formats, and
per-format subsections nested beneath. EN + zh-Hans.
* feat(trace): upload sessions to HF Agent Trace Viewer
Salvage trace upload as a smaller CLI-first feature: deterministic Claude Code JSONL export, fail-closed redaction, lazy Hugging Face dependency, and no gateway slash-command wiring.
* chore(trace): drop external porting references from docstrings
Describe the trace-upload design in Hermes' own terms.
* feat(sessions): fold trace upload into 'sessions export --format trace'
Integrates the HF Agent Trace Viewer exporter (PR #36145) onto the
unified export surface instead of a separate 'hermes trace' subcommand:
- --format trace: Claude Code JSONL to stdout/file, or one
<id>.trace.jsonl per session for filtered bulk export; defaults to
the most recent session when no --session-id/filters given.
- --upload pushes to the user's private HF traces dataset (--public to
opt out of private); reads HF_TOKEN with guided setup when missing.
- traces are secret-redacted by default (force mode); --no-redact opts
out after review; redaction failure blocks export (fail closed).
- hermes_cli/trace.py + subcommands/trace.py removed; agent/trace_upload.py
is the single engine. Docs EN + zh-Hans; 4 new CLI tests.
The salvaged SelfHostedBackend made self-hosted servers reachable via
mem0.json / MEM0_HOST, but the setup wizard still offered only Platform
and OSS — exactly the gap users hit (Discord report: 'At memory setup
there's only 2 options'). Adds a third wizard mode:
- interactive picker: Platform / Self-hosted server / Open Source
- non-interactive: hermes memory setup mem0 --mode selfhosted
--host http://... [--api-key ...] [--dry-run]
- host -> mem0.json (behavioral), API key -> .env as MEM0_API_KEY
(secret), optional key for AUTH_DISABLED servers
- best-effort reachability check against the server, non-fatal
- README + memory-providers docs updated with the wizard path
Salvage follow-up integrating PR #30481 (@simplast) and PR #57683
(@catbearlove1-lang) into the unified export surface:
- --format html: standalone self-contained HTML transcript (single
session or multi-session with sidebar), works with all shared filters
and --redact; requires a file output path.
- --only user-prompts: prompt-only export (jsonl records or md sections)
via the shared session_export renderer; the separate export-prompts
subcommand from the original PR is subsumed by this flag.
- AUTHOR_MAP entries for both contributors; docs EN + zh-Hans.
Review follow-ups on the salvage:
- get_all() pruned from the ABC and all three backends: mem0_list (its
only caller) was removed by the recall-tuning commit, leaving new,
tested, unreachable code — including SelfHostedBackend's _MAX_TOP_K
over-fetch workaround. Tests for it dropped; fake-class stubs remain
harmlessly. (The #52921 true-total fix lives on in the PR history if
a lister ever returns.)
- The persisted rerank config key was write-only (setup prompted for it,
nothing read it). initialize() now parses it into _rerank_default and
mem0_search uses it when the model doesn't pass rerank explicitly;
per-call args still win. Guard test added.
- Platform-mode setup now warns when MEM0_HOST is set in the environment:
the json host-clear can't help there (_load_config seeds host from the
env var, docs tell users to put it in .env) — the user would silently
keep routing to the self-hosted server.
- SelfHostedBackend: connect-level retries (httpx.HTTPTransport(retries=2))
so a single transient blip doesn't count toward the provider breaker;
transport now injectable and the test helper uses the real __init__
instead of mirroring it via __new__.
- plugin.yaml description no longer leads with reranking (off by default,
platform-only); docs em-dash typo fixed.
Salvage of #55614 by @kartik-mem0 (mem0 maintainer). Adds a SelfHostedBackend
that talks to a self-hosted Mem0 Docker server over httpx (X-API-Key auth,
/search + /memories routes), gated behind `host`. Also folds in the mem0
research-team recall tuning that rides with it: rerank defaults to false across
all modes, the mem0_list tool is removed (5->4 tools), search guidance is
de-shouted, and self-hosted get_all reports the true stored total (#52921).
Supersedes the self-hosted portion of #52487 (@liuhao1024, first-submitted).
Closes#52478Fixes#52921
- export now shares _add_session_filter_args / build_prune_filters with
prune/archive: AGE grammar (5h/2d/1w/ISO) on --older-than plus the full
filter set (--model, --provider, --min-messages, --min-cost, --branch,
--chat-id, ...) for both JSONL and md/qmd bulk exports; --dry-run works
on JSONL too; removes the one-off list_export_candidates helper.
- new --redact flag runs exported message content and tool output through
force-mode secret redaction (agent.redact) for jsonl, md, and qmd.
- docs EN + zh-Hans updated; new tests for AGE grammar, extended filters,
filtered JSONL, and redaction.
Replaces the parallel export-md subcommand from the salvaged commit with
a --format jsonl|md|qmd flag on the existing export subcommand, so all
session export formats share one surface. Adds AUTHOR_MAP entry.
Salvage follow-up for PR #59542 by @web3blind.
Sessions no longer auto-reset by default. SessionResetPolicy.mode now
defaults to "none" (was "both": 24h idle + daily 4am), matching the
setup wizard's existing no-reset default and community feedback that
surprise context loss hurts more than it helps.
- gateway/config.py: dataclass default + from_dict fallback -> "none";
installs whose config.yaml lacks a session_reset section stop
auto-resetting
- hermes_cli/setup.py: "Never auto-reset" is now the recommended/default
choice in hermes setup agent; stale comment updated
- docs (en + zh-Hans): default is no auto-reset, opt in via
session_reset in config.yaml
Users who explicitly configured idle/daily/both resets keep them.
* docs(secrets): secret-source plugin developer guide + sidebar registration for 1Password page
- New developer-guide/secret-source-plugin.md: SecretSource contract
(never raises/prompts, fetch-only, timeout budget), framework-vs-plugin
ownership table, mapped-vs-bulk shape guidance, run_secret_cli()
subprocess-safety, registration + timing note, conformance kit usage,
ErrorKind reference.
- Register user-guide/secrets/onepassword in the sidebar (page shipped
in #59498 but was not listed, so it was unreachable from nav).
- Cross-link the user-guide plugin section to the new dev guide.
* docs: group all plugin guides under a Plugins subcategory in Extending
- Move guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md -> developer-guide/plugins/index.md
(both locales) and make it the category landing page (slug pinned to
/developer-guide/plugins).
- New sidebar subcategory Developer Guide > Extending > Plugins holding
the general guide + all 8 provider-plugin docs (llm-access, memory,
context-engine, secret-source, model, image-gen, video-gen, web-search);
provider-doc URLs unchanged.
- Client redirect /guides/build-a-hermes-plugin -> /developer-guide/plugins.
- Update 30 cross-links across both locales.
The 1Password secret source resolves op:// references using
OP_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_TOKEN read from os.environ. Under systemd the gateway
gets that token via EnvironmentFile, but cron jobs, subprocesses, CLI
runs, macOS launchd, and Docker containers spawn fresh interpreters with
no inherited shell state — so they silently failed to resolve any
reference and fell back to empty strings.
Two patches close the gap, matching Bitwarden's reliability guarantees:
1. env_loader: auto-load ~/.hermes/.op.env after .env so the gitignored
bootstrap token is available everywhere. override=False plus an
explicit guard ensure it never clobbers a token already in env (e.g.
from a systemd EnvironmentFile, which keeps precedence).
2. credential_pool: _get_env_prefer_dotenv() now prefers the resolved
value in os.environ when .env still holds a raw op:// reference,
instead of handing a URL to provider auth. Non-op:// values keep the
existing .env-takes-precedence behaviour.
Also gitignore .op.env, document the three bootstrap-token options, and
add tests covering auto-load, no-override, and the resolved-vs-raw
precedence (plus regression guards).

Resolve provider credentials from 1Password op://vault/item/field references
at startup via the official `op` CLI, alongside the existing Bitwarden source.
Users map env-var names to references in secrets.onepassword.env; after .env
loads, each is resolved with `op read` and injected into os.environ. Auth is
whatever `op` already uses (service-account token or desktop/interactive
session) — Hermes never authenticates or installs `op` itself.
Startup-safe and fail-open: a missing binary, expired auth, a bad reference,
or an empty value each warn and fall back to existing credentials, never
blocking startup. Successful, complete pulls are cached in-process and on disk
(<hermes_home>/cache/op_cache.json, 0600) via the shared DiskCache; only
secret values are stored, never the token (auth is fingerprinted into the
key). Adds `hermes secrets onepassword {setup,status,set,remove,sync,disable}`
(aliases op/1password), config defaults, the cli-config example, docs, and
hermetic tests.
Hardening applied across both backends in env_loader: each source runs in its
own guard, config sections are coerced to dict, and cache_ttl_seconds is
coerced defensively — so a malformed secrets: section can't abort startup.

Follow-up to #59332 targeting the remaining PERCEIVED first-token latency
(the wire streaming was already per-token; these fix what the user sees):
1. display.show_reasoning default ON. On thinking models the reasoning
phase streams for tens of seconds; with the display off users stare
at a spinner the whole time and read it as a stall. Flipped in
DEFAULT_CONFIG, load_cli_config defaults, tui_gateway raw-YAML
fallbacks, and the hermes setup status line (all four read sites kept
in sync). Gateway per-platform defaults intentionally stay off —
messaging chats shouldn't fill with thinking text. /reasoning hide
still turns it off and persists.
2. Response box force-flushes long partial lines. _emit_stream_text only
painted on newline, so a response opening with a long paragraph
stayed invisible until the first \n — seconds of blank box. Now
partial lines wrap at terminal width and paint as tokens arrive
(mirrors the reasoning box's 80-char force-flush that existed since
day one). Table blocks remain batch-aligned; no content loss at wrap
boundaries (regression tests added).
3. hermes_time timezone resolution uses read_raw_config (mtime-cached +
libyaml C loader) instead of a raw yaml.safe_load of config.yaml
(~110-140ms measured) inside the FIRST system prompt build. First
build drops 320ms -> ~155ms on a 200-skill install.
4. Stale docs: configuration.md (en+zh) still documented the 70%/90%
[BUDGET WARNING] tool-result injections. Those were removed in April
2026 (c8aff7463) precisely because they hurt task completion; current
behavior is exhaustion-message + one grace call, no mid-loop
injection, no cache impact. Docs now describe reality.
Verified: token-count compression decisions already use API-reported
last_prompt_tokens (rough estimators are preflight-only and cost ~1.7ms
even on 1.7MB histories — not worth touching).
Bare 'hermes sessions prune' keeps the historical 90-day default, but any
filter — now including --source — suppresses the implicit cutoff, so
'prune --source cron' targets ALL cron sessions instead of silently only
those older than 90 days (the surprise a user hit live: 'No sessions
match ... source cron' despite plenty of recent cron runs).
- CLI preview + confirmation now show the match count plus the oldest
and newest matching session start times before deleting.
- Dashboard /api/sessions/prune mirrors the semantics: attribute filters
without an explicit older_than_days match all ages (model_fields_set
distinguishes an explicit 90 from the Pydantic default); dry_run
responses gain oldest_started_at/newest_started_at.
- Docs + argparse help updated; tests for both surfaces.
* feat(sessions): full filter surface for prune + new bulk archive subcommand
hermes sessions prune previously only supported --older-than N (integer
days) and --source — no way to target a window like 'the last 5 hours'
(e.g. a batch of CI smoke-test sessions), and no non-destructive option.
- SessionDB.prune_sessions gains keyword filters that AND together:
started_before/started_after epoch bounds, title_like, end_reason,
cwd_prefix, min/max_messages, archived tri-state. Default call is
byte-for-byte compatible (90-day cutoff, ended-only, source).
- New SessionDB.list_prune_candidates (backs --dry-run + confirmation
previews) and SessionDB.archive_sessions (bulk soft-hide via the
existing set_session_archived lineage-aware path; nothing deleted).
- CLI: prune gains --newer-than/--before/--after (durations like 5h/2d/1w,
bare days, or ISO timestamps), --title, --end-reason, --cwd,
--min/--max-messages, --include-archived, --dry-run. New
'hermes sessions archive' takes the same filters, requires at least one,
and is idempotent. Both show a preview before confirming.
- Dashboard /api/sessions/prune accepts the same filters + dry_run.
- Docs: sessions.md + cli-commands.md updated.
Filter parsing lives in hermes_cli/session_filters.py with unit tests;
DB filters covered in tests/test_hermes_state.py.
* feat(sessions): prune/archive filters for model, provider, user, chat, branch, tokens, cost, tool calls
Extends the prune/archive filter surface to everything identifiable in
the sessions table:
- --model (substring on model slug), --provider (exact on
billing_provider, case-insensitive), --user, --chat-id, --chat-type
(exact), --branch (substring on git_branch), --min/--max-tokens
(input+output), --min/--max-cost (USD, actual_cost_usd falling back to
estimated_cost_usd), --min/--max-tool-calls.
- SessionDB prune/archive/list_prune_candidates now share the filter
kwargs via **filters into _prune_filter_where (unknown names raise
TypeError); candidates listing + CLI preview now include the model.
- Any attribute filter (except legacy --source) suppresses the implicit
90-day default so 'prune --model X' matches all ages.
- Dashboard /api/sessions/prune passes the new fields through.
- Docs + tests updated (7 new DB tests, 3 new parser tests).
