Register the new ``--manual-paste`` flag on both entry points and
thread it through to the xAI loopback login:
* ``hermes auth add xai-oauth --manual-paste`` — pool-add path,
forwarded inside ``auth_commands.handle_auth_add``.
* ``hermes model --manual-paste`` — model-picker path, forwarded
by ``_model_flow_xai_oauth`` into the synthetic ``argparse.Namespace``
it passes to ``_login_xai_oauth``. The picker also now forwards
``--no-browser`` and ``--timeout`` for consistency (previously
hardcoded to defaults regardless of CLI flags).
Help text on both flags points at #26923 and names the
browser-only remote consoles (Cloud Shell, Codespaces, EC2
Instance Connect) so users searching ``hermes --help`` can find
the workaround.
xAI Grok OAuth (and Spotify) use a loopback redirect to
``http://127.0.0.1:<port>/callback`` to capture the authorization
code. That works when the browser and Hermes run on the same
machine, and the SSH tunnel recipe handles the regular remote
case. It breaks completely on **browser-only remote consoles**
(GCP Cloud Shell, GitHub Codespaces, AWS EC2 Instance Connect,
Gitpod, Replit, …) where the user has a browser but no real SSH
client to forward a port — the redirect to 127.0.0.1 on the
remote VM simply isn't reachable from the laptop, and there's
nothing the existing flow can do about it (#26923).
This commit adds the foundation for a manual-paste fallback:
* ``_is_remote_session`` now also recognises Cloud Shell,
Codespaces, Gitpod, Replit, StackBlitz (in addition to SSH),
so the existing tunnel hint at least fires in those
environments.
* ``_parse_pasted_callback`` accepts any of: a full
``http(s)://...?code=...&state=...`` URL, a bare ``?code=...``
query string, a bare ``code=...&state=...`` fragment, or a
bare opaque code value. Returns the same dict shape the HTTP
callback handler produces, so the caller's state / error
validation works unchanged (no CSRF bypass).
* ``_prompt_manual_callback_paste`` reads stdin with a clear
multi-line explanation of what's happening and what to paste.
* ``_xai_oauth_loopback_login`` gains a ``manual_paste`` kwarg
that skips the HTTP listener entirely. The redirect_uri,
PKCE verifier, state, and nonce are byte-identical to the
loopback path so xAI's token endpoint can't tell the
difference at the protocol level.
* ``_print_loopback_ssh_hint`` now also mentions
``--manual-paste`` so users without a real SSH client see a
path forward instead of a dead-end tunnel recipe.
* ``_login_xai_oauth`` threads ``args.manual_paste`` into the
loopback helper.
Salvages #19964 by @Beandon13. Adds `hermes kanban archive --rm` to
permanently remove already-archived tasks with cascading cleanup of
links, comments, events, runs, and notify-subs. Safety guard: only
archived tasks can be deleted; active/blocked/done must be archived
first.
Cherry-picked from #19964 onto current main (severe stale base, applied
manually to preserve substance only).
Two Mattermost thread-related bugs:
1. _resolve_root_id() — Mattermost CRT requires root_id to be the
thread root post. Using any reply's own ID as root_id causes
'400 Invalid RootId'. Add _resolve_root_id() that walks up the
post chain via API to find the actual root, and apply it in
send(), _send_url_as_file(), and _send_local_file().
2. _progress_reply_to — The condition in run.py only checked
Platform.FEISHU, missing Mattermost entirely. This caused tool
progress messages to always land in the main channel instead of
the thread. Add Platform.MATTERMOST to the condition so
progress messages are routed to threads when reply_mode=thread.
Impact: Tool progress messages now appear in Mattermost threads
instead of flooding the main channel; thread replies no longer
fail with Invalid RootId when the reply target is itself a reply.
Tests:
* ``test_refresh_xai_oauth_pure_403_marked_tier_denied_not_relogin`` —
refresh-403 raises ``xai_oauth_tier_denied`` with
``relogin_required=False`` and the API-key fallback hint in body.
* ``test_format_auth_error_tier_denied_does_not_suggest_relogin`` —
the renderer does not append "Run ``hermes model``" for the new
code.
* ``test_recover_with_credential_pool_skips_refresh_on_bare_403_for_xai_oauth`` —
bare ``{"reason":"forbidden","message":"Forbidden"}`` body (which
does not match the existing keyword heuristic) still short-circuits
``try_refresh_current`` on xai-oauth.
Docs:
* Drop the "(any active tier)" claim from the xai-grok-oauth guide,
add a top-of-page warning callout, and a Troubleshooting section
for the 403-after-login case pointing at ``XAI_API_KEY`` +
``provider: xai`` as the documented fallback.
The existing ``_is_entitlement_failure`` heuristic only fires when
the response body contains specific substrings ("do not have an
active Grok subscription", etc.). xAI has been seen to 403 standard
SuperGrok subscribers with a terser body that doesn't match those
keywords (#26847), and the recovery path would then mint a fresh
token, get a fresh 403, and loop until Ctrl+C.
Add a defense-in-depth check at the recovery call site: any 403 on
``provider == "xai-oauth"`` short-circuits ``try_refresh_current``
so the error surfaces immediately with the friendly hint from
``_summarize_api_error``. Keeps the existing keyword path for all
other providers untouched.
xAI's token endpoint returns HTTP 403 to the OAuth grant when the
account isn't on the allowlist for API access (e.g. standard
SuperGrok subscribers — see #26847). Treating it like a stale-token
400/401 made ``format_auth_error`` append "Run ``hermes model`` to
re-authenticate", which is misleading because re-login can't change
xAI's tier decision.
Split 403 off in both ``refresh_xai_oauth_pure`` and the loopback
login token exchange:
* New error code ``xai_oauth_tier_denied`` with ``relogin_required=False``
* Message explains the entitlement gate and points at the
``XAI_API_KEY`` + ``provider: xai`` fallback
* 400/401 still set ``relogin_required=True`` as before
* 5xx still set ``relogin_required=False`` as before
Three related fixes for the MEDIA:<path> extraction pipeline that
caused 'file not found' noise in platform channels:
1. run.py — tighten tool-result MEDIA regex from \S+ (any non-
whitespace) to require a path pattern with known extensions.
Prevents LLM-generated placeholder paths like
'MEDIA:/path/to/example.mp4' from being captured as real media.
2. base.py — remove the |\S+ fallback in extract_media() that
catches anything non-whitespace as a potential MEDIA path.
This was the primary cause of false positives — strings like
'' in tool output were captured as MEDIA: paths.
3. mattermost.py — replace the file-not-found error message sent
to the channel with a silent logger.warning() skip. When a
path extracted by MEDIA doesn't exist on disk, the channel
no longer gets a noisy '(file not found: ...)' message.
Impact: eliminates the persistent 'file not found' spam in
Mattermost channels caused by over-broad MEDIA regex patterns
matching non-path text in tool output.
The _SLACK_TARGET_RE regex only matched IDs starting with C (channel),
G (group), or D (direct message). Slack user IDs start with U, causing
'Could not resolve' errors when trying to send DMs to specific users.
Changes:
- Expand _SLACK_TARGET_RE to accept U-prefixed IDs (user IDs)
- Add conversations.open fallback to resolve user IDs to DM channel
IDs before sending, since chat.postMessage requires a conversation ID
Fixes #ISSUE_NUMBER
Qwen3.x and DeepSeek-V3.x default to chatty/hallucinatory tool use without
enforcement steering — agents narrate "calling tool X" without actually
emitting a tool call, or run partial loops. Both model families fit the
same failure pattern TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_GUIDANCE was already injected
for (gpt, codex, gemini, gemma, grok, glm).
Co-authored-by: briandevans <252620095+briandevans@users.noreply.github.com>
Squashed salvage of:
- 403e567ce fix(agent): add qwen and deepseek to TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_MODELS
- 9433eabe7 test(agent): use realistic qwen-plus identifier in enforcement test
Fixes#28079.
The conversation_loop.py references _pool_may_recover_from_rate_limit which
was defined in run_agent.py. After the conversation-loop extraction refactor,
the helper was no longer in the same module scope. Wrap the call as
_ra()._pool_may_recover_from_rate_limit() to route through the run_agent
monkeypatch namespace where the helper is available.
Adds regression test in test_gemini_fast_fallback.py.
Fixes: MAILROOM Email Triage NameError, OPS Execution Monitor NameError.
When the kanban auto-decomposer fans a triage task into child tasks,
recompute_ready() immediately promotes parent-free children to 'ready'
so the dispatcher picks them up. Some users want a manual workflow
where children stay in 'todo' for review before dispatch.
Add 'kanban.auto_promote_children' config key (default: true):
- false: children stay in 'todo' after decomposition
- true: existing behavior (auto-promote to 'ready')
Changes:
- kanban_db.py: decompose_triage_task() gains auto_promote param
- kanban_decompose.py: reads auto_promote_children from config
- kanban dashboard API: exposes the new setting in GET/PUT /orchestration
Closes#28016
Two related bugs in gateway/config.py prevented per-platform
gateway_restart_notification from working through config.yaml:
1. The shared-key bridging loop (load_gateway_config) omitted
'gateway_restart_notification', so the key never landed in
platform_data['extra'] even when set under e.g. 'discord:' or
'mattermost:' sections.
2. PlatformConfig.from_dict() only read gateway_restart_notification
from the top-level data dict, ignoring the 'extra' sub-dict where
bridged keys are stored.
Fix: add the key to the bridging loop, and add an 'extra' fallback
in from_dict() so that round-tripped values (YAML → bridged → extra
→ from_dict) resolve correctly.
Impact: users can now set gateway_restart_notification: false per
platform in config.yaml instead of relying on env vars or the
global platforms: block.
Two code paths call json.loads() on output from external tools without
catching JSONDecodeError. If the tool returns a non-JSON string (error
message, empty string, or None), the entire call path crashes.
1. gateway/run.py — text_to_speech_tool() result in voice reply path.
A TTS failure that returns an error string instead of JSON crashes
the voice reply handler, killing the message response entirely.
2. cron/scheduler.py — skill_view() result when loading skills for
cron jobs. A corrupted or missing skill file that returns an error
string instead of JSON crashes the cron tick, preventing all jobs
from executing that cycle.
Both fixes catch (json.JSONDecodeError, TypeError), log a warning,
and gracefully skip the failed operation instead of crashing.
When the gateway receives SIGUSR1 (graceful restart via launchd_restart),
the SIGUSR1 handler calls request_restart(via_service=True) and the
gateway shuts down cleanly with exit code 0.
However, the generated launchd plist uses KeepAlive → SuccessfulExit →
false, meaning launchd only relaunches on *non-zero* exit codes. A
clean exit(0) is treated as "successful, don't restart", so the
gateway stays down after /restart, /update, or SIGUSR1.
The systemd unit template already uses RestartForceExitStatus=75 for the
same scenario. Mirror that convention: when _restart_via_service is
True, raise SystemExit(75) so launchd's SuccessfulExit=false policy
triggers a relaunch.
Closes#28135
The dashboard's main column is `relative z-2` (App.tsx), which creates a
stacking context that traps fixed descendants below the app sidebar
(`z-50`). `ModelPickerDialog` renders `fixed inset-0 z-[100]` inline,
so its z-100 is scoped to z-2 and the sidebar covers its left edge.
The bug is visible across all themes but only obvious in the Large theme
variants (Hermes Teal (Large), etc.) where the larger root font widens
the dialog into the sidebar's column. Toast.tsx already documents the
same trap and uses the same `createPortal(..., document.body)` escape.
This commit ports the picker; the same pattern affects other inline
z-[100] modals in the dashboard (OAuthLoginModal, Cron / Models /
Profiles page modals) and is left for a follow-up — keeping this PR
scoped to the reporter's specific case.

The background review prompts (_SKILL_REVIEW_PROMPT and
_COMBINED_REVIEW_PROMPT) now include explicit protection rules
for bundled, hub-installed, and pinned skills — aligning with
the curator's existing policy at curator.py L345/350.
Before this change, bg-review could freely rewrite bundled skills
like 'hermes-agent' or pinned skills, while the 7-day curator
explicitly skips them.
The review agent now sees:
• Bundled skills (shipped with Hermes)
• Hub-installed skills (installed via hermes skills install)
• Pinned skills (marked via hermes curator pin)
If only protected skills need updating, the review says
'Nothing to save.' and stops.
Fixes#27644
resolve_xai_oauth_runtime_credentials() called _refresh_xai_oauth_tokens()
with no try/except. A terminal refresh failure (HTTP 400/401/403 —
invalid_grant, token revoked) propagated without clearing the dead
access_token / refresh_token from auth.json, causing every subsequent
session to retry the same doomed network request.
Add a try/except around the refresh call that mirrors the existing
credential_pool.py quarantine: when _is_terminal_xai_oauth_refresh_error
identifies a non-retryable failure, clear the dead token fields from
auth.json and write a last_auth_error diagnostic marker so future calls
fail fast with a clear relogin_required error instead of hitting the
network.
active_provider is preserved (set_active=False) so multi-provider users
whose chosen provider is not xai-oauth are unaffected.
Tests: two new cases in test_auth_xai_oauth_provider.py cover terminal
quarantine and transient pass-through.
PR #28330 was salvaged with a wrong noreply numeric ID (18091625 vs
the correct 7065068). The commit on main is correctly authored to
Grogger by username, but neither noreply form was in AUTHOR_MAP.
Adds both so release-notes generation maps them to @Grogger.
Wraps _pt_print in try/except with a print() fallback. When a
kanban worker's stdout is piped to a log file, prompt_toolkit
raises NoConsoleScreenBufferError (Windows) or OSError (other)
because there is no real console buffer. The fallback keeps
worker output flowing instead of crashing.
The dingtalk-stream SDK calls pre_start() on every registered handler
before opening the WebSocket connection. Without this method, the SDK
raises AttributeError and kills the stream connection, causing DingTalk
to be unable to connect via Stream Mode.
GLM models via Ollama report finish_reason='stop' even when the
response was truncated by max_tokens. The continuation mechanism
uses _has_natural_response_ending() as one of the heuristics to
detect whether the response was genuinely finished.
Currently only ASCII punctuation and CJK punctuation are recognized.
This means any response ending with an emoji (e.g. ⚡, 👍) or the
caret character ^ (common in French ^^ smiley) is not recognized as
naturally ended, triggering a false-positive continuation where the
model receives 'Continue where you left off' and produces garbled
output.
Add:
- ^ (caret) to the punctuation set
- Unicode emoji range (codepoint >= 0x1F300) as natural ending
This only affects GLM/Ollama users but the fix is safe for all
backends since _has_natural_response_ending() is only consulted
inside the continuation flow.
When a tool call requires user approval in the non-blocking gateway path,
the LLM previously received a result that was indistinguishable from a
failed tool call (exit_code=-1, error=message). The LLM could not tell
whether the tool was pending approval, had returned empty results, or had
failed silently — causing it to burn context on wrong hypotheses.
Fix changes the result format to include:
- status: pending_approval (clear state name)
- approval_pending: True (explicit boolean for LLMs to detect)
- error: cleared to empty string (removes misleading error signal)
This lets the LLM reason about approval latency vs actual errors,
short-circuiting the previous silent failure mode.
Fixes#14806
Switch .hermes-kanban-columns from auto-fit CSS grid to a flex row with
overflow-x: auto and a hidden scrollbar (scrollbar-width / ::-webkit-
scrollbar), and pin .hermes-kanban-column to flex: 0 0 280px so columns
sit side-by-side at a fixed width instead of wrapping into a 2xN grid.
Page vertical scroll is unaffected: each column already caps at
max-height: calc(100vh - 220px), so the container never grows tall
enough to introduce its own vertical scrollbar.
Path.resolve() follows the /tmp -> /private/tmp symlink on macOS, so
str(path).startswith("/tmp/") is always False for temp-dir paths.
The "Accept Edits" (workspace_session) mode silently refused to
auto-approve every /tmp write on macOS, breaking the documented
behaviour and making the existing test fail on this platform.
Fix: keep the raw expanded path (pre-resolve) for the /tmp prefix
check and continue using the resolved form only for the cwd
relative_to() call where symlink resolution is correct behaviour.
Plugin discovery exceptions in gateway startup (gateway/run.py) and
CLI startup (hermes_cli/main.py) are caught and logged at DEBUG
level, making them invisible at the default INFO log level.
If any plugin import fails — syntax error, missing dependency, import
cycle — operators get zero indication unless they bump the log level
to DEBUG. This makes broken plugins appear enabled but silently
non-functional.
Change both locations to logger.warning() so failures are visible at
production log levels.
Closes#28137
* fix(process-registry): detach stdin from background subprocesses to prevent keyboard freeze
Background process non-PTY path used stdin=subprocess.PIPE unconditionally,
creating an orphan pipe that was never written to and never closed. Child
processes that read stdin would block indefinitely, competing with the
parent's prompt_toolkit event loop for terminal ownership and causing
complete keyboard lockout.
Change to stdin=subprocess.DEVNULL so children get immediate EOF on stdin
reads instead of blocking forever. For interactive stdin, the PTY path
(which has its own independent PTY via ptyprocess.PtyProcess.spawn) should
be used instead.

_deliver_kanban_artifacts used a broader _IMAGE_EXTS that included
.bmp, .tiff, and .svg. These three extensions are absent from the
equivalent set in _deliver_media_from_response (line 10661), which
intentionally routes them through send_document rather than
send_multiple_images (comment near line 10522 notes that Telegram
sendPhoto recompresses and rejects non-raster formats).
Routing .svg (XML text), .bmp, or .tiff through the photo API causes
send_multiple_images to raise on most platforms; the exception is caught
and logged as a warning, silently dropping the artifact. Aligning the
two sets ensures kanban deliverables with these extensions follow the
same send_document path as regular agent responses.
No behaviour change for .png/.jpg/.jpeg/.gif/.webp.
gateway.log uses a _ComponentFilter that only passes records from
loggers starting with ('gateway',). Plugin modules are loaded under
the hermes_plugins.* namespace, so all plugin log output is silently
dropped from gateway.log.
This makes plugin registration — which directly affects gateway hooks
(pre_gateway_dispatch, transform_llm_output, etc.) — invisible in
the gateway-specific log. Operators debugging gateway behavior check
gateway.log and see no plugin activity, even when plugins are working
correctly.
Add 'hermes_plugins' to the gateway component prefixes tuple so
plugin log messages appear in gateway.log.
Closes#28138
The WeCom adapter's _read_events() loop only handled CLOSE, CLOSED,
and ERROR websocket message types. When the server initiates a graceful
shutdown, aiohttp returns WSMsgType.CLOSING before the connection is
fully closed. This message type was not handled, causing the receive()
call to return immediately in a tight loop while self._ws.closed
remained False. The result was 100% CPU usage on the asyncio event loop.
Add WSMsgType.CLOSING to the set of terminal message types that raise
RuntimeError("WeCom websocket closed"), allowing _listen_loop() to
enter its normal reconnect backoff path.

Adds the contributor email mapping for Jack Yang (@0xjackyang) so future
release-note generation attributes commits correctly.
Salvage of #27964 by @0xjackyang.
Addresses review feedback on #13193:
1. Reference-image flow no longer assumes write_file/read_file handle
binaries. vision_analyze produces a textual description; the binary
is optionally copied via terminal (cp/curl). The description is what
gets embedded in prompts.
2. image_generate's URL-only return is now explicit. Step 6 downloads
the returned URL to local disk via terminal (curl -sSL -o ...), then
verifies non-zero size before proceeding.
3. Removed "Please use nano banana pro..." line from prompts/system.md —
the backend is user-configured and not agent-selectable, so routing
hints in the prompt are misleading.
PORT_NOTES.md updated: prompts/system.md is no longer verbatim, and the
file-ops/backend-selection rows now reflect Hermes' actual tool surface
(write_file/read_file for text, terminal for binaries and URL downloads,
vision_analyze for reading images).
Adapts the upstream baoyu-article-illustrator skill (verbatim-copied in
the previous commit) to Hermes' tool ecosystem, matching the pattern
used by baoyu-infographic.
- Metadata: openclaw → hermes; add author, license, tags, category
- Triggering: slash command + CLI flags → natural language
- User config: remove EXTEND.md, first-time-setup, preferences-schema
- User prompts: AskUserQuestion (batched) → clarify (one at a time)
- Image gen: baoyu-imagine → image_generate (describe refs in prompt text)
- Platform: drop Windows/PowerShell; Linux/macOS only
- File ops: switch to write_file / read_file
- Watermark: opt-in per-article instead of EXTEND.md-driven
- Add PORT_NOTES.md describing the adaptation and sync procedure
Style, palette, and prompt/system.md reference files are verbatim copies
and are the sync points with upstream.
