- Restore allowed_chats gate before thread_id check so ignored_threads
applies universally (even to guest mentions).
- Compute _message_mentions_bot once in _should_process_message to
eliminate redundant second entity scan when guest_mode=true and the
message does not mention the bot.
- Remove redundant _is_group_chat from _is_guest_mention (caller already
verified the message is a group chat).
- Update _telegram_allowed_chats docstring to note guest_mode exception.
- Add test coverage: bot_command entity, text_mention entity,
caption_entities, and ignored_threads + guest_mode interaction.
- Add nik1t7n to AUTHOR_MAP.
Maps obafemiferanmi1999@gmail.com (the commit-author email used on
PR #21473's branch) to GitHub login KvnGz (the PR/branch owner) so
contributor_audit.py recognizes the authored commit in the upcoming
salvage PR.
Maps egitimviscara@gmail.com to GitHub login uzunkuyruk so that
contributor_audit.py recognizes their authored commits in upcoming
salvage PRs (e.g. #21933 fix).
Adds jhin.lee@unity3d.com → leehack so contributor_audit.py strict
mode passes when the salvage of #22053 (telegram DM topic reply
fallback) lands on main.
Windows Terminal captures Alt+Enter at the terminal layer (fullscreen
toggle), so documenting 'Alt+Enter or Ctrl+J' without qualification
leaves stock Windows Terminal users with no working newline key they
can discover from the docs alone.
- Main keybindings row: note Alt+Enter is intercepted on WT and direct
users to Ctrl+Enter / Ctrl+J instead.
- Shift+Enter compatibility table: split 'stock Windows Terminal' from
Windows Terminal Preview 1.25+ (which added Kitty protocol support
and works with the keybinding from this PR once enabled).
- Add AUTHOR_MAP entry for ra2157218@gmail.com -> Abd0r so the salvage
commit passes the email-mapping CI gate.
Closes the last Python-on-Windows UTF-8 exposure by making every
text-mode open() call explicit about its encoding.
Before: on Windows, bare open(path, 'r') defaults to the system
locale encoding (cp1252 on US-locale installs). That means reading
any config/yaml/markdown/json file with non-ASCII content either
crashes with UnicodeDecodeError or silently mis-decodes bytes.
After: all 89 affected call sites in production code now pass
encoding='utf-8' explicitly. Works identically on every platform
and every locale, no surprise behavior.
Mechanical sweep via:
ruff check --preview --extend-select PLW1514 --unsafe-fixes --fix --exclude 'tests,venv,.venv,node_modules,website,optional-skills, skills,tinker-atropos,plugins' .
All 89 fixes have the same shape: open(x) or open(x, mode) became
open(x, encoding='utf-8') or open(x, mode, encoding='utf-8'). Nothing
else changed. Every modified file still parses and the Windows/sandbox
test suite is still green (85 passed, 14 skipped, 0 failed across
tests/tools/test_code_execution_windows_env.py +
tests/tools/test_code_execution_modes.py + tests/tools/test_env_passthrough.py +
tests/test_hermes_bootstrap.py).
Scope notes:
- tests/ excluded: test fixtures can use locale encoding intentionally
(exercising edge cases). If we want to tighten tests later that's
a separate PR.
- plugins/ excluded: plugin-specific conventions may differ; plugin
authors own their code.
- optional-skills/ and skills/ excluded: skill scripts are user-authored
and we don't want to mass-edit them.
- website/ and tinker-atropos/ excluded: vendored / generated content.
46 files touched, 89 +/- lines (symmetric replacement). No behavior
change on POSIX or on Windows when the file is ASCII; bug fix on
Windows when the file contains non-ASCII.
Follow-up to #15328's vision-unsupported retry branch in run_agent.py.
_strip_images_from_messages() previously deleted any message whose content
was entirely images. That's fine for synthetic user messages injected for
attachment delivery, but it breaks providers for tool-role messages — the
paired tool_call_id on the preceding assistant message ends up unmatched,
which OpenAI-compatible APIs reject with HTTP 400.
Fix: tool-role messages whose content becomes empty are replaced with a
plaintext placeholder that preserves the tool_call_id linkage. Only
non-tool messages are dropped. Added 10 tests covering the role-alternation
invariants + image-type coverage.
Image-rejection detector: expanded phrase list (image content not
supported / multimodal input / vision input / model does not support
image) and gated on 4xx status so transient 5xx errors never get
misinterpreted as 'server said no to images'. Detection is documented as
best-effort English phrase matching.
AUTHOR_MAP: mapped 3820588+ddupont808@users.noreply.github.com to
ddupont808 so release notes attribute the salvage correctly.
The new _is_gateway_approval_context() widened the gateway classification
to any call with HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM bound via contextvars. But
cron/scheduler.py binds that same contextvar for delivery routing on
cron jobs that originate from a gateway platform (telegram/discord/etc.),
so those jobs were getting routed through submit_pending with no
listener — blocking indefinitely instead of honoring approvals.cron_mode.
Short-circuit on HERMES_CRON_SESSION before any gateway check. Cron is
always governed by cron_mode config, regardless of where the job was
scheduled from.
Adds regression coverage in TestCronWithGatewayOrigin and records the
contributor email mapping for scripts/release.py.
Small follow-ups on top of #19643:
- check_auth() takes quiet kwarg to suppress its AUTHENTICATED print
when called from check_auth_live(), so the final status line reflects
the live-call outcome only.
- Drop redundant _ensure_deps() call in check_auth_live() (check_auth()
already calls it).
- Add AUTHOR_MAP entry for ygd58 so release attribution script works.
Weak judge models (e.g. deepseek-v4-flash) return empty strings or prose
when asked for the strict {done, reason} JSON verdict. The old code
failed-open to continue on every such turn, burning the entire turn
budget with log lines like
judge returned empty response
judge reply was not JSON: "Let me analyze whether the goal..."
and /goal clear could not stop it mid-loop without /stop.
After N=3 consecutive *parse* failures (transport/API errors don't
count — those are transient), the loop auto-pauses and prints:
⏸ Goal paused — the judge model (3 turns) isn't returning the
required JSON verdict. Route the judge to a stricter model in
~/.hermes/config.yaml:
auxiliary:
goal_judge:
provider: openrouter
model: google/gemini-3-flash-preview
Then /goal resume to continue.
The counter resets on any usable reply (both "done"/"continue" and
API errors) and persists across GoalManager reloads so cross-session
resumes carry the correct state.
Also fixes test_goal_verdict_send.py sharing a hardcoded session_id
across tests — the shared id only worked because the previous
_post_turn_goal_continuation was a never-awaited coroutine. Now that
PR #19160 made it properly awaited, the xdist test-leakage bug
surfaced. Each test gets a unique session_id via uuid suffix.
The existing mapping pointed to the wrong GitHub user (blakejohnson, id
866695, IBM) — the email actually belongs to voteblake (id 5585957),
confirmed via search/commits?author-email. Mis-credited since 323ca7084.
Both implement WebSearchProvider via tools/web_providers/ — matching the
existing SearXNG pattern (PR #5c906d702). Search-only; pair with any
extract provider via web.extract_backend.
- tools/web_providers/brave_free.py — Brave Search API (free tier, 2k
queries/mo). Uses BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY as X-Subscription-Token.
- tools/web_providers/ddgs.py — DuckDuckGo via the ddgs Python package.
No API key; gated on package importability.
- tools/web_tools.py: both backends added to _get_backend() config list
and auto-detect chain (trails paid providers), _is_backend_available,
web_search_tool dispatch, web_extract_tool + web_crawl_tool search-only
refusals, check_web_api_key, and the __main__ diagnostic. Introduces
_ddgs_package_importable() helper so tests can monkeypatch a single
symbol for the ddgs availability check.
- hermes_cli/tools_config.py: picker entries for both providers; ddgs
gets a post_setup handler that runs `pip install ddgs`.
- hermes_cli/config.py: BRAVE_SEARCH_API_KEY in OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS.
- scripts/release.py: AUTHOR_MAP entry for @Abd0r.
- tests: 14 new tests (brave-free) + 15 new tests (ddgs) covering
provider unit behavior, backend wiring, and search-only refusals.
Salvages the brave-free + ddgs portion of PR #19796. Not included: the
in-line helpers in web_tools.py (replaced with provider modules to match
the shipped architecture), the lynx-based extract path (these backends
should refuse extract with a clear error — users pair with a real
extract provider), and scripts/start-llama-server.sh (unrelated).

PR #21238 introduced top-level `allOf: [{if/then/required}]` blocks in the
built-in memory tool's parameters schema as conditional-required hints.
Two problems:
1. OpenAI's Codex backend (chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex, gpt-5.x) rejects
top-level `allOf`/`anyOf`/`oneOf`/`enum`/`not` outright with a
non-retryable 400 — affected every user on openai-codex/gpt-5.x.
2. The `if/then` hints were silently ignored by every other provider
(Chat Completions doesn't honour them on function schemas), so they
never actually enforced anything anywhere.
The runtime handler in `memory_tool()` already validates the per-action
required fields and returns actionable error messages, so removing the
block changes nothing behaviourally.
Paired with the defense-in-depth sanitizer in the previous commit, this
closes the bug both at the source (schema no longer emits the forbidden
form) and at the wire boundary (sanitizer strips it if anything else
re-introduces it).
- Rewrites `tests/tools/test_memory_tool_schema.py` to guard against
regressing the forbidden-combinator shape instead of asserting it.
- Adds AUTHOR_MAP entry for @hrkzogw (author of the sanitizer fix).
