parseSlashCommand used /^(\S+)\s*(.*)$/ where `.` can't cross a newline and
`$` anchors end-of-string, so any slash command whose arg contained a newline
(/goal <multi-line text>, a skill command with a long pasted context) failed
the whole match, parsed as an empty name, and rendered "empty slash command"
while the payload vanished — cleared from the composer and absent from the
Up-arrow history ring, which only derives from sent user messages.
- name now splits on any whitespace ([\s\S]* arg), matching the CLI and the
gateway's split(maxsplit=1); multiline args flow to slash.exec intact
- the residual empty-name branch (bare "/", "/ text") restores the submitted
text to the composer draft instead of eating it

Audit follow-up. ChatBar subscribed to the whole `$statusItemsBySession` (a
computed that rebuilds the entire map) + `$previewStatusBySession` maps just to
derive a boolean, so every per-item status mutation (a subagent tick, the 5s
background poll) and every OTHER session's change re-rendered the ~1.4k
component. The queue hook likewise subscribed to the whole `$queuedPromptsBySession`
map.
- Add `useSessionStatusPresence` — a coarse edge (useSyncExternalStore) that
flips only when the stack shows/hides; ChatBar uses it for the styling
data-attr instead of the two map subscriptions.
- Add generic `useSessionSlice(store, key)` — subscribes to one session's array,
bailing out when other sessions churn (the plain atom keeps per-key refs
stable). The queue hook now reads its slice through it.
Result: ChatBar re-renders only when the stack's presence flips or this session's
queue changes — not on background/subagent status streaming or other sessions.
Verified: typecheck clean, 0 lint errors, composer tests 39/40 (pre-existing
attachments failure unrelated).
Finding 1 of the desktop UI-consistency pass: SVG icon sizing had four
competing conventions with no source of truth. Introduce a named icon-size
scale (iconSize.xs/sm/md/lg/xl -> size-3/3.5/4/5/6) in lib/icons.ts and migrate
the genuine icon deviants onto it:
- desktop-install-overlay.tsx: Loader2/Check/AlertTriangle/Chevron* (h-4 w-4,
h-3.5 w-3.5 -> iconSize.md/sm)
- composer/controls.tsx, voice-activity.tsx, queue-panel.tsx: numeric size={N}
on Tabler icons -> iconSize classes
Sizes snap to the nearest scale step; the only rendered deltas are size={11}
-> 12px (queue/stop glyphs, +1px) and AudioLines size={15} -> 14px (-1px, now
matches its sibling toolbar icons). All other migrations are exact (12/14/16px).
Out of scope (different sizing mechanisms, left untouched): non-icon h-N w-N
layout (sliders, skeletons, swatches), sprite size props (PixelEggSprite), and
Codicon font-icon sizing. Broader size-N -> token adoption is follow-up.
A top-down Memory Graph panel: memories and skills on a radial time axis
(core = oldest, outer rings = newer) with a playable / scrubbable timeline
that builds the map up over time.
- Reveal lives off the React tree (a ref drives the canvas, a nanostore atom
drives the timeline + legend), so a play-through or scrub never re-renders
the panel; paint is coalesced to one rAF and playback is abortable, so even
frantic scrubbing stays responsive.
- Adaptive dated rings: one equal-width ring per POPULATED calendar bucket,
a "nice-tick" count scaled to the span. Constant (orthographic) core/band
scale — more data grows the disk outward (more rings), never thinner.
- A bucket's nodes fill the band inside their ring and ignite staggered by
real timestamp across it (no end-dump), with an EVE-style warp-in; the
camera steps out band-by-band as rings are reached.
- ASCII "computing" core, theme-aware palette with a distinct memory hue,
shared trackpad-gesture primitives.
- Shareable WoW-style "loadout" codes on a generic, reusable codec
(@/lib/loadout: bitstream + DEFLATE + version/checksum frame + base64url).
- Opens from the statusbar and command palette; i18n across all locales.
Deps: d3-force, fflate (drops unused react-force-graph-2d).
The Electron desktop app and the web dashboard each carried their own
copy of the tui_gateway JSON-RPC WebSocket client plus near-identical
auth'd WS-URL construction. The dashboard's copy was the historical
source of the "is the dashboard required to run the desktop app?"
confusion, since the two surfaces looked coupled.
Consolidate the genuinely shared transport into the existing
framework-agnostic `@hermes/shared` package so both surfaces consume it
independently — neither app depends on the other:
- Move `resolveGatewayWsUrl` + `GatewayReauthRequiredError` (single-use
OAuth ticket re-mint vs long-lived token fallback) into
`@hermes/shared`; desktop now imports them directly.
- Add `buildHermesWebSocketUrl`, one base-path/scheme/auth-aware URL
builder, and route every dashboard WS endpoint through it
(`/api/ws`, `/api/events`, `/api/pty`, plugin WS URLs).
- Reduce the dashboard `GatewayClient` to a thin subclass of the shared
`JsonRpcGatewayClient`, deleting ~210 lines of duplicated pending-call
/event-dispatch/connect plumbing while keeping its dashboard-specific
ticket-vs-token auth selection.
- Drop the stale "start it with --tui" chat banner, which implied the
dashboard flag was required.
Behavior is preserved on both surfaces; the dashboard additionally
inherits the shared client's 15s connect timeout (previously
desktop-only), so a hung connect now fails fast instead of pinning the
composer in "connecting".
Replace the 5s output_tail poll (which often showed nothing) with a real push
stream. The process registry gains an on_output sink called from its reader
threads with each chunk; the tui_gateway wires it to emit agent.terminal.output
{process_id, chunk} (write_json is _stdout_lock-guarded, so emitting from the
reader thread is safe). The desktop routes chunks by process id straight into
the read-only agent xterm via a small writer registry, with a capped backlog so
a tab opened mid-stream (or reopened) replays what it missed.
Drops the fragile poll/tail path: no session-key matching, no truncation, no
lag — full-fidelity ANSI, env-agnostic (local/docker/ssh).
Replace the one-off isTerminalFocused with isFocusWithin(selector) in the
keybinds lib (beside isEditableTarget) — the reusable primitive for any
focus-scoped shortcut. The terminal marks itself data-terminal and the ⌘W
handler routes via isFocusWithin('[data-terminal]'); future surfaces just add
their own marker.
Multiple persistent in-app terminals managed by a thin VS Code-style icon
rail docked on the terminal pane's outer edge. Each tab is its own live
xterm+PTY that survives tab switches, session switches, and hiding the pane
(VS Code parity: only an explicit close or `exit` kills a shell). Terminals
own their state independent of the session — the sole thing they inherit is
an initial cwd snapshotted at creation.
- Rail: icon-only tabs (name + live hotkey on hover), +/hide controls,
context menu. Sits at z-40 above the collapsed sidebars' hover-reveal
triggers and marks itself data-suppress-pane-reveal, so reaching for a tab
can't summon the file-browser/review panel.
- Lifecycle: PersistentTerminal latches mounted on first open so shells stay
alive while hidden; ensureTerminal re-creates one on reopen.
- Agent reader: id-keyed registry drives read_terminal off the active tab.
- Keybinds (Ctrl-family, OS-aware): toggle Ctrl+`, new Ctrl+Shift+`,
next/prev Ctrl+Shift+Down/Up, close Ctrl+Shift+W.
Route FS/git REST through the active profile, mount the remote folder picker
at app root, keep the project dialog open while picking, show a first-run
blank state, flip into grouped view on create, and constrain the picker scroll
area so Select stays reachable.
Let UI callers ask for folders/files without knowing remote-picker limits:
selectDesktopPaths now normalizes remote directory selection to a single folder
inside the facade. Project creation and composer context picking no longer branch
on remote mode; they route through desktop-fs helpers just like git callers route
through desktopGit(). Behavior unchanged except remote folder context now works
through the same backend picker path.
Keep the remote git mirror as a thin facade: route all GETs through gitGet,
all mutations through gitPost, and keep consumers on desktopGit(). On the
backend, route git paths through a single _git_path helper instead of repeating
str(_fs_path(...)) in every endpoint. Behavior unchanged.
Second pass on the remote-project flow: the project dialog and git cockpit were
remote-aware, but the composer's Add file/folder context picker still called the
native Electron picker directly. Route it through selectDesktopPaths so remote
sessions use the backend-aware picker instead of local disk paths; preserve local
multi-select behavior and keep remote folder selection single because the in-app
remote picker only supports one directory.
Also use readDesktopFileDataUrl for image previews so an already-known backend
image path can be read through /api/fs/read-data-url, and add focused coverage
for backend file-diff routing plus the plain-folder git init/worktree path.
After the folder picker fix, an added remote folder was still half-usable:
the desktop's git GUI (coding-rail status, worktree lanes, review pane,
branch switch, file diff) all ran Electron-local git on the USER's machine,
so against a remote-gateway repo they silently degraded to empty.
Mirror the whole surface over the dashboard REST API so it acts on the
BACKEND repo where sessions actually run:
- hermes_cli/web_git.py: git/gh logic (status, worktrees, branches, review
list/diff/stage/unstage/revert/commit/commit-context/push/ship-info/
create-pr, file-diff, worktree add/remove, branch switch) shelling to the
system git, mirroring the Electron ops' shapes.
- web_server.py: /api/git/* routes (same auth gate + _fs_path hardening as
/api/fs, executor-offloaded, mutations -> 400).
- apps/desktop desktop-git.ts: remote-aware facade exposing the same shape as
window.hermesDesktop.git; coding-status / review / projects / model /
desktop-fs route through desktopGit() so local stays Electron, remote hits
/api/git/*.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server_git.py (real repo: status counts,
review classification, diff incl. untracked all-add, stage+commit roundtrip,
worktree/branch lifecycle, commit-context, gh-absent ship-info, auth) and
desktop-git.test.ts (local vs remote routing, envelope unwrap, POST bodies).
The MoA reference-block display (each reference model's output shown as a
labelled thinking block before the aggregator responds) previously existed
only in the classic CLI. The facade already emits moa.reference / moa.aggregating
through tool_progress_callback; this wires the TUI and desktop consumers.
- tui_gateway/server.py: _on_tool_progress relays moa.reference (label / text /
index / count) and moa.aggregating to the Ink/desktop client as their own
events.
- ui-tui: gatewayTypes adds the two event shapes; createGatewayEventHandler
routes them; turnController.recordMoaReference pushes a committed
thinking-style segment tagged with the source model. Shown regardless of
showReasoning — references ARE the mixture-of-agents process the user opted
into, not ordinary reasoning. moa.aggregating is a status-only transition
(no transcript entry).
- apps/desktop: use-message-stream appends each reference as a labelled
reasoning chunk via the existing reasoning disclosure; GatewayEventPayload
gains label/index/aggregator.
Tests: tui_gateway emit (3), Ink handler render + showReasoning-independence +
aggregating-no-segment (3). TUI typecheck/lint clean; desktop typecheck/lint
clean.
The inline clarify panel used its own card tokens, an animated ring, and
oversized spacing — out of step with every other tool row. Rebuild it on the
shared --ui-*/--conversation-* tokens: a compact panel, letter-key badges
(A/B/C…) that double as a/b/c… shortcuts, an inline content-sizing "Other" field
(CSS field-sizing — no view swap, no layout shift on focus), and a Continue
button so picking an option selects rather than auto-sends. Selection lives on
the letter badge alone (solid primary; outlined while Other is focused-but-empty).
Also settle the panel into the standard tool block once the turn stops running,
so a stopped turn no longer strands a live, unanswerable prompt.
Add a content-agnostic Zoomable primitive (useZoomPan hook + overlay viewer):
click to open full-screen, wheel-zoom toward the cursor, drag to pan, toolbar
zoom/reset, and an optional copy action. Wire Mermaid diagrams into it with
copy-as-PNG; reusable for other inline content later.
Bring apps/desktop and ui-tui to a clean state for typecheck, eslint,
and prettier:
- Run prettier across both trees (printWidth/wrap drift; prettier is not
CI-enforced for these JS projects, so main had accumulated drift).
- Apply eslint --fix for padding-line-between-statements and perfectionist
import/export sorting.
- Manual fixes for non-auto-fixable rules:
- remove unused node:net import in electron/main.cjs (uses Electron net)
- replace inline `typeof import(...)` annotations with top-level
`import type * as EnvModule` in two ui-tui test files
- scoped eslint-disable no-control-regex on intentional sentinel/ANSI
regexes (mathUnicode.ts, text.ts)
- resolve react-hooks/exhaustive-deps per-case: correct swapped/missing
deps, collapse redundant session.* members, and justified disables on
settings mount-only data-load effects to preserve run-once behavior
No behavior changes; test pass/fail counts are unchanged from the main
baseline.
Adds a CodeMirror 6 spot editor to the right-rail file preview so users can
make quick edits in-app without leaving for an IDE. Entering edit mode is a
pure in-place swap of the read view — same fixed-height header, same gutter
geometry/typography (mirrors SourceView 1:1) so nothing shifts — toggled via
the Edit button, a bare `e` when the pane is hovered/focused, or the tab.
- Save path is transport-agnostic (writeDesktopFileText): local Electron IPC
or a new hardened POST /api/fs/write-text on the dashboard server (path
validation, parent-must-exist, regular-files-only, size cap, atomic
temp-file + os.replace), behind the existing auth middleware.
- Stale-on-disk guard re-reads before writing and offers overwrite vs
discard-and-reload instead of clobbering external/agent edits.
- VS Code-style modified dot on the tab; ⌘/Ctrl+S and ⌘/Ctrl+Enter save,
Esc cancels; GitHub highlight style matched to the read view's Shiki theme.
- Typing stays render-free (draft in a ref; dirty flips once at the boundary).
Make completed desktop tool rows read like useful activity labels instead of raw plumbing: terminal rows use a dispatch-style shell summarizer for agent wrappers, and read_file rows keep the action plus filename and requested line range.
The shell cleanup follows condensed-milk-pi's shape: split command compounds on real separators, strip pipe tails inside each segment, clean redirects/env prefixes, then classify setup/banner/status segments. Multi-command probes render as `first command + N commands`; the full command remains available in copy/detail.
Read rows now render as `Read package.json` or `Read main.ts L25-34`, using requested positive offset/limit and returned line numbers only as fallback for negative/unknown offsets.
Regression for the refText crash: attachmentDisplayText and
optimisticAttachmentRef must return null (not throw) when handed an
undefined/null attachment hole, so the submit path can't reproduce
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'refText')".
A session switch or draft restore can leave undefined/null holes in the
composer attachments array. AttachmentList was guarded against this in
#49624, but the sibling submit path was not: submitPromptText maps the
same array through attachmentDisplayText/optimisticAttachmentRef and
buildContextText (a.kind / a.label / a.refText), so a hole threw
"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'refText')" — an uncaught
renderer error that blanks the chat pane and shows "Desktop app link
offline".
Close the whole bug class:
- attachmentDisplayText / optimisticAttachmentRef no-op on a falsy
attachment (shared chokepoint, also protects thread.tsx drop handler).
- submitPromptText filters falsy entries from the source array, and
buildContextText filters its (possibly post-sync) input before reading
fields.
GET /api/tools/toolsets returns the full CONFIGURABLE_TOOLSETS set with no
desktop curation, so the Skills & Tools → Toolsets list shows entries that
don't belong in a flat per-user toggle: platform-coupled toolsets (discord,
discord_admin, yuanbao — which `hermes tools` already platform-restricts off
the CLI) and internal plumbing (context_engine, moa). `hermes tools` curates
these out; the desktop didn't.
Add a small documented block-list + predicate (mirroring
desktop-slash-commands.ts) and apply it in the toolset list filter. Hiding a
row is cosmetic — enabled state and runtime gating are untouched.
Ship the final pet-generation UX polish (provider picker behavior, step-2 cancel flow, banner integration, and visual consistency) and make saturated-chroma background removal C-op driven so hatch processing no longer hammers the machine during long runs.
Three voice-mode papercuts in the desktop app:
1. Ctrl+B did nothing. The docs + `voice.record_key` advertise Ctrl+B to
talk, but the desktop never bound it (only ⌘B = sidebar existed). Add a
rebindable `composer.voice` action that toggles the voice conversation,
defaulting to ⌃B on macOS (distinct from ⌘B; off-macOS `ctrl` folds to
the sidebar chord, so it ships unbound there to avoid stealing it). The
global keybind reaches the composer through a new focus-bus event.
2. The Voice settings page rendered every provider's options at once (~30
fields). Filter to the *selected* TTS/STT provider's sub-fields; STT
provider fields hide when STT is off. Picking "edge" now shows just the
Edge voice, making it obvious voice chat also needs STT enabled.
3. Voice mode could hang "speaking" forever. Free Edge TTS sometimes returns
audio that never fires `playing`/`ended`/`error`, so the playback promise
never settled. Add a stall watchdog (rearmed on each progress tick, so
long speech is never cut off) that rejects a stuck stream, letting the
loop recover with a clear error.
Let setup.runtime_check accept an optional provider, persist the selected
provider/model before the gate, and validate the provider the user just
connected instead of a stale config entry such as anthropic.
* feat(desktop): add Update now button to About panel
The About > Updates panel only surfaced "See what's new" when an update
was available, which just opens the changelog overlay — there was no way
to start the install directly from About. Add an "Update now" primary
button that opens the updates overlay (for apply progress) and kicks off
the install for the active target (backend in remote mode, else client).
* feat(desktop): PR-style file diffs in chat
Render write_file/edit_file/patch as a reviewable diff instead of raw
result JSON, closer to a Cursor/T3 per-edit review.
- Unified diff via FileDiffPanel: strip git file-header + @@ hunk noise,
drop the +/- gutter, color by line with a 2px gutter accent, full-bleed
to the card, transparent context lines, compact scroll height.
- Header shows filename + language icon + +N/-N stats; full path moves to
a hover tooltip (no Edited verb, no ms).
- Treat the three file-edit tools uniformly (isFileEditTool); read diff
from inline_diff or patch's diff field; suppress raw-arg detail.
- Reusable FileTypeIcon primitive sharing the code-block icon mapping
(codiconForFilename), codicon fallback.
- Per-row scaffolding fade (not the group wrapper, which trapped child
opacity); expanded edits stay full, collapsed fade; keyboard-only focus
lift. Hide diff-less rehydrated creates that read as dupes.
* style(desktop): lead --dt-font-mono with bundled JetBrains Mono
Code/diff blocks preferred a system Cascadia Code before the bundled
JetBrains Mono, so they drifted from the terminal (which leads with
JetBrains Mono) on machines where Cascadia is installed. Reorder so every
mono surface uses the face we actually ship.
* feat(desktop): syntax-highlight inline diffs via Shiki
Unify the diff renderer onto the same Shiki path as code blocks: highlight
the marker-stripped change content in the file's language, then a per-line
transformer layers the add/remove tint + gutter accent on top. Falls back
to the plain color-only renderer when the language is unknown, over budget,
or while Shiki loads.
- shikiLanguageForFilename(): extension → bundled-language id (shared
filename-token helper with codiconForFilename).
- code display:grid so full-width line tints don't double with newline
nodes; theme surface stripped so context lines stay transparent.
* style(desktop): use github-dark-dimmed for inline diffs
The vivid github-dark-default tokens read harsh behind the add/remove
tint in dark mode; switch the diff's dark theme to GitHub's lower-contrast
dimmed palette. Light mode and code blocks are unchanged.
* style(desktop): dim code-block syntax theme + share with diffs
Apply github-dark-dimmed to code blocks too (not just inline diffs) and
export one shared SHIKI_THEME so the two highlighters can't drift. Lower
contrast reads easier at our small code size in dark mode.
* style(desktop): soften shiki token contrast in dark mode
github-dark-dimmed only dims the background, which the diff/code surfaces
strip — so the bright token foregrounds were unchanged. Pull saturation +
brightness back a touch (hues preserved) on .shiki in dark mode for both
code blocks and inline diffs.
Unify the diff renderer onto the same Shiki path as code blocks: highlight
the marker-stripped change content in the file's language, then a per-line
transformer layers the add/remove tint + gutter accent on top. Falls back
to the plain color-only renderer when the language is unknown, over budget,
or while Shiki loads.
- shikiLanguageForFilename(): extension → bundled-language id (shared
filename-token helper with codiconForFilename).

nodes; theme surface stripped so context lines stay transparent.

* feat(providers): remove google-gemini-cli + google-antigravity OAuth providers
Google now actively bans accounts for third-party tools that piggyback on
Gemini CLI / Antigravity / Code Assist OAuth, and because abuse prevention
sits at a backend layer the ban can extend to the entire Google account
(Gmail/Drive), with a second violation being permanent.
Ref: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/discussions/20632
Removes both OAuth inference providers entirely (modules, provider profiles,
auth/runtime/config/models wiring, the /gquota Code Assist quota command,
the antigravity-cli optional skill, desktop + docs surface in en + zh-Hans).
The API-key 'gemini' provider (GOOGLE_API_KEY/GEMINI_API_KEY against
generativelanguage.googleapis.com) is unaffected and stays fully supported.
* fix(skills): keep the antigravity-cli skill — only the OAuth provider is removed
The antigravity-cli optional skill orchestrates the external `agy` binary as
a coding-agent tool via the terminal tool — it does NOT wrap Hermes inference
through the banned google-antigravity OAuth provider, so it carries none of
the account-ban risk that motivated removing that provider. Restore the skill,
its docs page, the sidebar entry, and the optional-skills catalog row. The
google-antigravity / google-gemini-cli inference providers stay fully removed.
