* feat(achievements): share card render on unlocked badges
Adds a Share button to each unlocked achievement card that opens a
modal and renders a 1200x630 PNG share card client-side via Canvas2D
(no backend, no network, no new deps). Two actions: Download PNG and
Copy image to clipboard.
Card layout mirrors the in-dashboard visual language: tier-colored
glow, icon from the existing LUCIDE sprite set, achievement name,
tier badge pill, description, progress stat line, and a Hermes Agent
watermark. Sized for X/Twitter, Discord, LinkedIn, Bluesky link
previews.
Vendored on top of the upstream @PCinkusz bundle; the 'in-progress
scan banner' precedent already established this divergence pattern.
Manifest bumped 0.3.1 -> 0.4.0.
* feat(achievements): share-on-X as primary action on share dialog
Adds a 'Share on X' button as the primary action in the share dialog.
Opens https://x.com/intent/post with a pre-filled tweet referencing
the achievement name, tier, @NousResearch, and the Hermes docs URL.
Copy image and Download PNG become secondary actions: users who want
the badge attached can Copy image, paste into the X composer, post.
Primary button styled as X's signature black-on-white fill so the
action is unambiguous.
When run_conversation encounters a non-retryable client error (401, 400,
etc.), it returns a dict with failed=True instead of raising. The gateway's
_run_and_close only branched on exceptions, so it always emitted run.completed
even for failed runs — clients could not distinguish success from failure.
Inspect the result dict before emitting: if failed=True, emit run.failed
with the error message; otherwise emit run.completed as before. The existing
except Exception path is unchanged for genuine programming errors.
Fixes#15561
Followup to #19653. The feature PR updated the Kanban user guide but
missed four other pages that document the same surface. Caught when
Teknium asked 'did you add docs to the guide and any other kanban
related docs around this?'.
- reference/cli-commands.md: rewrite the `hermes kanban` section to
document the `--board <slug>` global flag, the `boards`
subcommand group (list/create/switch/show/rename/rm), board
resolution order, and worked examples. Also fills in the
`create` / `complete` flag lists that had drifted from the
current CLI (`--summary`, `--metadata`, `--triage`,
`--idempotency-key`, `--max-runtime`, `--skill`).
- reference/environment-variables.md: add `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD`
row, update `HERMES_KANBAN_DB` precedence note.
- reference/slash-commands.md: add `/kanban boards ...` and
`/kanban --board <slug> ...` to the two `/kanban` rows (CLI
table + gateway table).
- features/kanban-tutorial.md: the walkthrough uses the `default`
board, so just a note pointing readers at the overview's Boards
section if they want multiple queues, plus the corrected per-board
DB path.
Skill docs (devops-kanban-orchestrator, -worker) intentionally not
updated: those are agent-facing lifecycle playbooks and boards are
transparent to workers (HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD env var pins the DB
automatically), so there's nothing new for a worker to know.
Reporter of #19535 explicitly asked for a regression test — covers it
here so a future refactor of _set_status_direct can't silently re-enable
the direct ready/todo -> running bypass.
Asserts both: (a) HTTP 400 with 'running' in the detail message, and
(b) the task's status is unchanged after the rejected PATCH (pre-request
status preserved, no partial mutation).
The PATCH /tasks/:id endpoint allows setting status='running' via
_set_status_direct(), bypassing the dispatcher/claim path that creates
run rows, claim locks, expiry, and worker process metadata. This can
leave tasks stuck in 'running' with no active worker.
Fix: reject status='running' with HTTP 400, requiring all transitions
to 'running' to go through the canonical claim_task() path.
Closes#19535
The test 'test_inf_stays_string_for_integer_only' incorrectly asserted
that _coerce_number('inf') returns float('inf'), but the function
correctly returns the original string 'inf' because infinity is not
JSON-serializable.
Fixed the assertion to expect the string 'inf', and added two new tests
for negative infinity and NaN edge cases to improve coverage of the
non-JSON-serializable number guard in _coerce_number().
Follow-up to @changchun989's cherry-pick: reverts the validate-via-
normalize change so validate_profile_name remains a strict regex check
on the input AS-GIVEN. Callers that accept mixed-case user input
(dashboard UI, CLI args, import flows) call normalize_profile_name()
first, then validate the result. This keeps validate honest about
what the on-disk directory name must look like — e.g. ' jules '
(trailing whitespace) is now rejected instead of silently trimmed
and accepted.
- validate_profile_name: strict lowercase/regex check again, 'UPPER'
back in the invalid-names parametrize
- 8 call sites in profiles.py (create_profile, delete_profile,
set_active_profile, export_profile, import_profile, rename_profile,
resolve_profile_env, plus the clone_from branch): swap the
normalize-then-validate order
- scripts/release.py: add changchun989@proton.me -> changchun989 to
AUTHOR_MAP so CI doesn't block on the unmapped contributor email
All kanban + profile tests pass (268 across test_profiles.py +
test_kanban_db.py + test_kanban_core_functionality.py, plus 73 in
test_kanban_tools.py + test_kanban_dashboard_plugin.py).
Closes#18498.
- Add normalize_profile_name() for lowercase canonical IDs and Default alias
- Use canonical names in create/delete/rename/export/import/set_active paths
- Canonicalize Kanban assignee on create/assign, list filter, and worker spawn
- Tests for mixed-case assignees and profile resolution (fixes#18498)
`hermes import` was creating secret files with the process umask
(typically 0644) instead of 0600. zipfile.open() does not honor the
Unix mode bits stored in zip member external_attr; the restore loop
used open(target, "wb") which always falls back to umask.
Threat: silent privilege downgrade after a routine restore on
multi-user systems (shared dev boxes, CI runners, jump hosts) — any
local user could read API keys and OAuth tokens from ~/.hermes/.
Fix mirrors the convention already used at file creation
(hermes_cli/auth.py: stat.S_IRUSR | stat.S_IWUSR for auth.json).
The quick-snapshot restore path (restore_quick_snapshot) is
unaffected — it uses shutil.copy2 which preserves perms via
copystat().

Adds first-class board support to kanban so users can separate unrelated
streams of work (projects, repos, domains) into isolated queues. Single-
project users stay on the 'default' board and see no UI change.
Isolation model
---------------
- Each board is a directory at `~/.hermes/kanban/boards/<slug>/` with
its own `kanban.db`, `workspaces/`, and `logs/`. The 'default' board
keeps its legacy path (`~/.hermes/kanban.db`) for back-compat — fresh
installs and pre-boards users get zero migration.
- Workers spawned by the dispatcher have `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` pinned in
their env alongside the existing `HERMES_KANBAN_DB` /
`HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACES_ROOT` pins, so workers physically cannot see
other boards' tasks.
- The gateway's single dispatcher loop now sweeps every board per tick;
per-tick cost is a few extra filesystem stats.
- CAS concurrency guarantees are preserved per-board (each board is its
own SQLite DB, same WAL+IMMEDIATE machinery as before).
CLI
---
hermes kanban boards list|create|switch|show|rename|rm
hermes kanban --board <slug> <any-subcommand>
Board resolution order: `--board` flag → `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` env →
`~/.hermes/kanban/current` file → `default`. Slug validation is strict:
lowercase alphanumerics + hyphens + underscores, 1-64 chars, starts with
alphanumeric. Uppercase is auto-downcased; slashes / dots / `..` /
control chars are rejected so boards can't name their way out of the
boards/ directory.
Passive discoverability: when more than one board exists, `hermes kanban
list` prints a one-line header ("Board: foo (2 other boards …)") so
users who stumble across multi-project never have to hunt for the
feature. Invisible for single-board installs.
Dashboard
---------
- New `BoardSwitcher` component at the top of the Kanban tab: dropdown
with all boards + task counts, `+ New board` button, `Archive`
button (non-default only). Hidden entirely when only `default` exists
and is empty — single-project users never see it.
- New `NewBoardDialog` modal: slug / display name / description / icon
+ "switch to this board after creating" checkbox.
- Selected board persists to `localStorage` so browser users don't
shift the CLI's active board out from under a terminal they left open.
- New `?board=<slug>` query param on every existing endpoint plus a
new `/boards` CRUD surface (`GET /boards`, `POST /boards`,
`PATCH /boards/<slug>`, `DELETE /boards/<slug>`,
`POST /boards/<slug>/switch`).
- Events WebSocket is pinned to a board at connection time; switching
opens a fresh WS against the new board.
Also fixes a pre-existing bug in the plugin's tenant / assignee
filters: the SDK's `Select` uses `onValueChange(value)`, not
native `onChange(event)`, so those filters silently didn't work.
New `selectChangeHandler` helper wires both signatures.
Tests
-----
49 new tests in `tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_boards.py` covering:
slug validation (valid / invalid / auto-downcase), path resolution
(default = legacy path, named = `boards/<slug>/`, env var override),
current-board resolution chain (env > file > default), board CRUD +
archive / hard-delete, per-board connection isolation (tasks don't
leak), worker spawn env injection (`HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD`,
`HERMES_KANBAN_DB`, `HERMES_KANBAN_WORKSPACES_ROOT` all point at the
right board), and end-to-end CLI surface.
Regression surface: all 264 pre-existing kanban tests continue to pass.
Live-tested via the dashboard: created 3 boards (default,
hermes-agent, atm10-server), created tasks on each via both CLI
(`--board <slug> create`) and dashboard (inline create on the Ready
column), confirmed zero cross-board leakage, confirmed `BoardSwitcher`
+ `NewBoardDialog` work end-to-end in the browser.
AnyUrl was imported inside the same try block as mcp.client.auth, so
when the mcp package was not installed, AnyUrl was undefined and
_build_client_metadata raised NameError at runtime.
Moved the AnyUrl import to its own try/except block so it's available
whenever pydantic is installed (which is a core dependency), regardless
of whether the mcp SDK is present.
Also added pytest.importorskip('mcp') to the three
test_build_client_metadata tests that exercise _build_client_metadata,
since that function depends on OAuthClientMetadata from the mcp package.
Six tests in test_bedrock_adapter.py import botocore.exceptions
directly (ConnectionClosedError, EndpointConnectionError,
ReadTimeoutError, ClientError) without guarding the import. When
botocore is not installed (it's an optional dependency), these tests
fail with ModuleNotFoundError instead of being gracefully skipped.
Added pytest.importorskip('botocore') to each affected test function,
following the same pattern used elsewhere in the test suite (e.g.
test_voice_mode.py for numpy, test_mcp_oauth.py for mcp).
Tests affected:
- TestIsStaleConnectionError: 3 tests
- TestCallConverseInvalidatesOnStaleError: 3 tests
Before: 6 FAIL with ModuleNotFoundError
After: 6 SKIP with reason message
TestTranscribeLocalExtended patches faster_whisper.WhisperModel, which
triggers an ImportError when the faster_whisper package is not installed.
Added a pytest.mark.skipif marker using importlib.util.find_spec so
these tests are gracefully skipped instead of failing with
ModuleNotFoundError.
Reported by @neopabo — the Open WebUI page was missing several steps users
hit in practice:
- Use hermes config set instead of hand-editing .env (matches current UX)
- Restart-gateway note after enabling API_SERVER_ENABLED
- curl /health + /v1/models verification step before jumping to Docker
- ENABLE_OLLAMA_API=false in both docker run and compose snippets to
suppress the empty Ollama backend that otherwise clutters the picker
- 15-30s startup wait note for first-run embedding model download
- Troubleshooting entry for the empty-Ollama-shadowing case
- /v1/models troubleshoot command now includes the Authorization header
The resilient restart settings from PR #18639 only took effect when
the gateway was started via `hermes gateway start` or `hermes gateway
restart` — both of which call refresh_systemd_unit_if_needed() which
writes the new unit and runs daemon-reload.
However, when the gateway self-restarts via exit-code-75 (stale-code
detection after `hermes update`, or the /restart command), systemd
respawns the process directly without going through any CLI function.
The unit file on disk stays stale, and systemd keeps using the old
cached settings (StartLimitBurst=5, RestartSec=30) until someone
manually runs `hermes gateway restart`.
This meant that after PR #18639 was deployed, users who never ran
`hermes gateway restart` manually were still vulnerable to the
permanent-death-on-network-outage bug.
Fix: call refresh_systemd_unit_if_needed() at the top of run_gateway()
(the foreground entry point that systemd's ExecStart invokes). This
ensures that on every boot — whether triggered by systemd restart,
exit-75 respawn, or manual foreground run — the unit definition and
daemon state are current. The call is best-effort (exceptions caught)
and a no-op when the unit is already current (one stat + string compare).
Closes#18718. Exposes the existing `workspace_kind` + `workspace_path`
fields (already accepted by POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks) in the
dashboard's per-column inline-create form so users can create tasks
targeting a git worktree or an explicit directory without dropping
back to the CLI.
- Add a workspace-kind Select (scratch / worktree / dir) to
InlineCreate in plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/index.js.
- Conditionally render a workspace_path Input next to the select when
kind != scratch; placeholder tells the user whether the path is
required (dir) or optional (worktree — derived from assignee when
blank).
- Submit wires `workspace_kind` / `workspace_path` into the POST body
only when they're non-default, keeping the request shape small and
interoperable with older dispatcher versions.
E2E verified in a dashboard pointed at the worktree: selecting dir +
typing /tmp/test-18718 produces a POST body with
{workspace_kind: 'dir', workspace_path: '/tmp/test-18718'} and the
task lands in sqlite with those fields set. 42/42 kanban dashboard
plugin tests pass.
Extends the existing _normalize_tool_input_schema to also drop top-level
union keywords that Anthropic's tool schema validator rejects with HTTP 400.
Several upstream and plugin tools ship schemas with a top-level oneOf/
allOf/anyOf (common for Pydantic discriminated unions). The existing
strip_nullable_unions pass only handles anyOf-with-null patterns; a
non-null top-level union keyword sails through and hits the API.
Salvage of #16471 — approach folded into the existing normalize helper
rather than introducing a parallel _sanitize_input_schema function, to
avoid two schema-munging code paths running against the same input.

Set max_result_size_chars=100_000 on the read_file registry entry (was
float('inf')), closing the Layer 2 defense-in-depth gap in
tool_result_storage.py. The existing Layer 1 guard inside
_handle_read_file already returns a JSON error for oversized reads;
this aligns the registry cap with every other tool.
Update test_read_file_never_persisted → test_read_file_result_size_cap
to assert 100_000, and add test_read_file_registry_cap_is_100k as an
explicit regression guard against re-introducing float('inf').

The contributor's PR silently swallowed ValueError from
SessionDB.set_session_title() with bare except Exception: pass.
Users typing /new <title> with an already-in-use title got an
untitled session and no feedback.
Changes:
- cli.py: catch ValueError from both sanitize_title() and
set_session_title(); print the error and mark the session
untitled in the banner (never echo the rejected title back).
- gateway/run.py: append a warning note to the reset reply on
title rejection; reflect the accepted title in the header.
- Add regression tests for the duplicate-title path in CLI and
gateway.
Also map exx@example.com -> @exxmen in scripts/release.py.
Allow users to start a fresh session and immediately set its title by
passing a name to /new (or /reset):
/new Refactor auth module
Changes:
- hermes_cli/commands.py: add args_hint='[name]' to /new command
- cli.py: parse title argument in process_command(), pass to new_session()
- cli.py: new_session() accepts title=None, sets title via SessionDB
- gateway/run.py: _handle_reset_command() parses title, sets on new entry
- gateway/session.py: reset_session() accepts optional display_name
- tests: add test_new_session_with_title, test_reset_command_with_title,
test_new_command_in_help_output
All 36 affected tests pass.
When agent-browser is globally installed via 'npm install -g agent-browser'
but not present in the local node_modules, doctor falsely warns that it's
not installed. Add shutil.which('agent-browser') as a fallback check after
the local path check.
Closes#15951
Treat explicit CDP override mode as a valid browser backend even when agent-browser is absent, and add a regression test to prevent false-negative availability gating.
The auth check in list_authenticated_providers used mere key presence in
credential_pool to conclude a provider is authenticated. An empty entry
(pool_store key with no actual credentials) caused providers like
ollama-cloud to appear as authenticated in the model picker even when no
OLLAMA_API_KEY was set.
The user's picker then offered nemotron-3-super under Ollama Cloud;
selecting it routed every subsequent turn to https://ollama.com/v1, which
rejected the requests with HTTP 400.
Fix: drop the pool_store key-existence check from both section 2
(HERMES_OVERLAYS) and section 2b (CANONICAL_PROVIDERS). The following
load_pool().has_credentials() call already handles the legitimate pooled-
credential case; checking for an empty key just ahead of it was redundant
and actively harmful.
`_apply_profile_override()` scans `sys.argv` for `-p / --profile` at
module import time. When `hermes_cli.main` is imported inside pytest
with `-p no:xdist` on the command line, it picks up `'no:xdist'` as a
profile name candidate, then passes it to `resolve_profile_env()` which
raises `ValueError` (invalid format), and the function calls
`sys.exit(1)` — aborting test collection with an INTERNALERROR before
any test runs.
The same conflict affects any tool or wrapper that uses `-p` for its
own flag and then imports `hermes_cli.main`.
Fix: add a format guard immediately after step 1 (explicit flag scan).
If `consume == 2` (the value came from `-p <value>`, not
`--profile=value`) and the candidate doesn't match the canonical
profile-name pattern `[a-z0-9][a-z0-9_-]{0,63}` (mirrored from
`hermes_cli.profiles._PROFILE_ID_RE`), discard it and continue as if
no `-p` flag was found. The `active_profile` file-based fallback
(step 2) only reads a file written by hermes itself, so it always
produces valid names and needs no guard.
Regression guard: with the guard reverted, importing
`hermes_cli.main` with `sys.argv = ['pytest', '-p', 'no:xdist', ...]`
raises `SystemExit(1)`. With the guard in place, the import succeeds
and `sys.argv` is left intact for pytest. Legitimate `-p coder` still
flows through to `resolve_profile_env()` unchanged.
Rebased onto current `origin/main` (`e5dad4ac5`) — the prior branch
base (`4fade39c9`) was 824 commits behind and the PR was DIRTY /
CONFLICTING. The 1.5 HERMES_HOME-set early-return block has since
landed between the original insertion point and step 2; the new guard
is positioned correctly before the early return so a bogus `-p` value
no longer prevents the early return from kicking in.

The 'q' alias is defined for 'queue' command in commands.py:93.
The hardcoded 'q' in cli.py:5910 was dead code - resolve_command('q')
returns the queue CommandDef, so canonical would never be 'q'.
Removes the misleading check without changing any behavior:
- /quit and /exit still exit (defined aliases)
- /q still maps to queue (as intended)
`_resolve_model_override` treated any non-empty `provider` string from
the LLM as user-specified and skipped the pin-to-current-provider
fallback. When the LLM wrote bare `'custom'` (instead of the canonical
`'custom:<name>'` referring to a custom_providers entry), the value
serialized into jobs.json as `"provider": "custom"` and the scheduler
could never resolve a provider from it — the cron job failed silently
at run time.
Treat bare `'custom'` as "no provider supplied" so the current main
provider gets pinned instead, matching behaviour for the omitted case.
Defence-in-depth complement to a schema-description fix (#15477) that
discourages the LLM from emitting bare `'custom'` in the first place.
Previously only HTTP 404/503 and specific error strings triggered a fallback
to the main model when the summary model was unavailable. Timeout errors
(HTTP 408/429/502/504, or error strings containing 'timeout') entered a
short cooldown instead, leaving context to grow unbounded for the rest of
the session.
Add _is_timeout detection alongside _is_model_not_found so that transient
timeout errors on the summary model also trigger immediate fallback to the
main model, preventing compression failure from cascading.
Closes#15935
MiniMax China (api.minimaxi.com) does not expose a /v1/models endpoint.
The doctor command was probing it and reporting HTTP 404 as a warning,
even though the API works correctly for chat completions.
Set supports_health_check=False for MiniMax CN so doctor shows
"(key configured)" instead of the false 404 warning.
Refs #12768, #13757
YAML parses `delegation: null` as Python None. `dict.get(key, {})`
only uses the default when the key is *missing*, not when it exists with
a None value, so `cfg.get("max_concurrent_children")` crashes with
`'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'`.
Same pattern as fd9b692d (fix(tui): tolerate null top-level sections).
Use `dict.get(key) or {}` to handle both missing and None-valued keys.
Closes: delegation null config crash (same class as #7215, #7346)
esbuild raises 'Must use outdir when there are multiple input files'
on Android/Termux ARM64 with esbuild >=0.25. The build script used
--outfile=dist/ink-bundle.js which is only valid for a single entry
point with no code splitting. Switching to --outdir=dist fixes the
error and names the output file dist/entry-exports.js (matching the
input file name). Update index.js to import from the new path.
Fixes#16072
Add 'xiaomi' to the _anthropic_preserve_dots() provider whitelist and
'xiaomimimo.com' to the URL-based fallback check. Without this,
normalize_model_name() converts mimo-v2.5 to mimo-v2-5, which the
Xiaomi API rejects with HTTP 400.
Fixes#16156
The `provider` field in CRONJOB_SCHEMA only showed examples like
'openrouter' and 'anthropic', with no mention of the canonical
'custom:<name>' form required for custom_providers entries. When the
user has custom providers configured, LLMs tend to write the bare type
name ('custom') because the schema does not advertise the ':<name>'
suffix. The bare value then serializes into jobs.json and causes the
cron job to fail silently at run time — `_resolve_model_override`
treats it as a user-specified provider and skips the pin-to-current
fallback, but no provider ever resolves from the bare 'custom' string.
Clarifying the schema so the canonical form is discoverable addresses
the root cause at the tool-definition boundary.
* docs: document /kanban slash command
The kanban user guide and slash-commands reference only mentioned the
/kanban slash command in passing. Add a proper section covering:
- CLI and gateway both expose the full hermes kanban surface via
hermes_cli.kanban.run_slash (identical argument surface)
- Mid-run usage: /kanban bypasses the running-agent guard, so reads
and writes land immediately while an agent is still in a turn
- Auto-subscribe on /kanban create from the gateway — originating
chat is subscribed to terminal events, with a worked example
- Output truncation (~3800 chars) in messaging
- Autocomplete hint list vs full subcommand surface
Also adds /kanban rows to both slash-command tables (CLI + messaging)
in reference/slash-commands.md and moves it into the 'works in both'
notes bucket.
* docs(kanban): frame the model's tool surface as primary, CLI as the human surface
The kanban user guide and CLI reference read as if you drive the board
by running `hermes kanban` commands everywhere. In practice:
- **You** (human, scripts, cron, dashboard) use the `hermes kanban …`
CLI, the `/kanban …` slash command, or the REST/dashboard.
- **Workers** spawned by the dispatcher use a dedicated `kanban_*`
toolset (`kanban_show`, `kanban_complete`, `kanban_block`,
`kanban_heartbeat`, `kanban_comment`, `kanban_create`,
`kanban_link`) and never shell out to the CLI.
Changes to `user-guide/features/kanban.md`:
- New 'Two surfaces' intro distinguishes the two front doors up front.
- Quick-start section re-labelled so each step says who is running it
(you vs. orchestrator vs. worker).
- 'How workers interact with the board' rewritten:
- Lead with "Workers do not shell out to `hermes kanban`."
- Tool table extended with required params.
- Concrete worker-turn example (`kanban_show` → `kanban_heartbeat`
→ `kanban_complete`) and an orchestrator fan-out example
(`kanban_create` x N with `parents=[...]`).
- Moved 'Why tools not CLI' from a defensive aside to a clean
follow-up section.
- 'Worker skill' section explicitly says the lifecycle is taught
in tool calls, not CLI commands.
- 'Pinning extra skills' reordered — orchestrator tool form first
(the usual case), human/CLI second, dashboard third.
- 'Orchestrator skill' now shows a canonical `kanban_create` /
`kanban_link` / `kanban_complete` tool-call sequence instead of
only describing what the skill teaches.
- CLI-command-reference heading now clarifies this is the human
surface, with a cross-link to the tool-surface section.
- 'Runs — one row per attempt' structured-handoff example replaced:
the primary example is now `kanban_complete(summary=..., metadata=...)`
(what a worker actually does), with the CLI form retained as
"when you, the human, need to close a task a worker can't."
Changes to `reference/cli-commands.md`:
- `hermes kanban` intro marks itself as the human / scripting surface
and links out to the worker tool surface.
- Corrected `comment <id>` description — the next worker reads it via
`kanban_show()`, not by running `hermes kanban show`.
* docs(kanban-tutorial): reframe worker actions as tool calls
Honest answer to Teknium's follow-up: no, the first pass missed the
tutorial. The four stories all showed `hermes kanban claim /
complete / block / unblock` as if the backend-dev, pm, and reviewer
personas were humans running CLI commands. In a real hermes kanban
run those agents are dispatcher-spawned workers driving the board
through the `kanban_*` tool surface.
Changes:
- Setup intro now distinguishes the three surfaces up front
(dashboard / CLI for you, `kanban_*` tools for workers) and
establishes the convention: `bash` blocks are commands *you* run,
`# worker tool calls` blocks are what the agent emits.
- Story 1 (solo dev schema): 'Claim the schema task, do the work,
hand off' block replaced with the dispatcher spawning the
backend-dev worker and a `kanban_show → kanban_heartbeat →
kanban_complete` tool-call sequence. The 'On the CLI' `hermes
kanban show / runs` block re-labelled as 'you peeking at the board'
to keep it correct as a human inspection step.
- Story 2 (fleet farming): note about structured handoff updated
from `--summary` / `--metadata` CLI flags to
`kanban_complete(summary=..., metadata=...)` tool form.
- Story 3 (role pipeline): the big PM/engineer/reviewer block fully
rewritten as three worker tool-call sequences — PM worker
completes spec, engineer worker blocks, human/reviewer
`hermes kanban unblock` (or `/kanban unblock`), engineer worker
respawns and completes. The respawn-as-new-run mechanic is now
explicit.
- Reviewer paragraph: `build_worker_context` replaced with
`kanban_show()` — that's the tool that delivers the parent
handoff to the model.
- Structured handoff section heading and body updated:
`--summary`/`--metadata` → `summary`/`metadata` (tool params),
with a note that the tool surface doesn't expose a bulk variant
for the same reason the CLI refuses multi-task `complete`.
Story 4 (circuit breaker) unchanged — its workers fail to spawn,
so there are no tool calls to show; the `hermes kanban create` and
`hermes kanban runs` commands in it are correctly human-driven.
OpenRouter and Nous Portal dropped the -beta suffix from the Grok 4.20 slug.
The OpenRouter section already used the new slug; this updates the Nous
Portal section and bumps updated_at.
Adds RFC 5322 Date header to the _send_email tool path in tools/send_message_tool.py.
Issue #15160 noted that both gateway/platforms/email.py and tools/send_message_tool.py
construct MIMEMultipart/MIMEText messages without setting a Date header. RFC 5322
requires the Date header; mail filters reject messages that lack it.
PR #15207 fixed the gateway/platforms/email.py path but did not cover
tools/send_message_tool._send_email, which is used by the send_message tool
for cross-channel messaging.
This change adds msg["Date"] = formatdate(localtime=True) to _send_email,
mirroring the fix applied to the gateway email adapter.
Closes#15160
Ollama serves Qwen3 thinking inside the content field as <think>...</think>
blocks rather than in the API-level reasoning_content field. This means
_has_structured was False for these responses, so an empty-looking reply
after a tool call triggered the nudge instead of the prefill continuation,
causing a double-response loop.
Fix: detect <think>/<thinking>/<reasoning> in final_response and:
1. Skip the nudge when thinking is present (model is still reasoning)
2. Include _has_inline_thinking in _has_structured so prefill kicks in
Per-request OpenAI-wire clients (used by both non-streaming and
streaming chat-completions paths in _interruptible_api_call) should
not run the SDK's built-in retry loop: the agent's outer loop owns
retries with credential rotation, provider fallback, and backoff that
the SDK can't see.
Leaving SDK retries on (default 2) compounds with our outer retries
and lets a single hung provider request stretch to ~3x the per-call
timeout before our stale detector reports it.
Shared/primary clients and Anthropic / Bedrock paths are unaffected
(they don't go through here).
Salvage of #15811 core improvement — the timeout push-down in the
original PR required scaffolding that has since been refactored on
main, so only the max_retries=0 change is preserved.
