Remove unused imports (F401) and duplicate/shadowed import
redefinitions (F811) across the codebase using ruff's safe
autofixes. No behavioral changes -- imports only.
- ~1400 safe autofixes applied across 644 files (net -1072 lines)
- __init__.py re-exports preserved (excluded from F401 removal so
public re-export surfaces stay intact)
- Re-exports that are imported or monkeypatched by tests but look
unused in their defining module are kept with explicit # noqa:
F401 (gateway/run.py load_dotenv; run_agent re-exports from
agent.message_sanitization, agent.context_compressor,
agent.retry_utils, agent.prompt_builder, agent.process_bootstrap,
agent.codex_responses_adapter)
- Unsafe F841 (unused-variable) fixes deliberately skipped -- those
can change behavior when the RHS has side effects
- ruff lints remain disabled in pyproject.toml (only PLW1514 is
selected); this is a one-time cleanup, not a config change
Verification:
- python -m compileall: clean
- pytest --collect-only: all 27161 tests collect (zero import errors)
- core entry points import clean (run_agent, model_tools, cli,
toolsets, hermes_state, batch_runner, gateway)
- static scan: every name any test imports directly from an edited
module still resolves
* feat(skills): add content size limits for agent-created skills
Agent writes via skill_manage (create/edit/patch/write_file) are now
constrained to prevent unbounded growth:
- SKILL.md and supporting files: 100,000 character limit
- Supporting files: additional 1 MiB byte limit
- Patches on oversized hand-placed skills that reduce the size are
allowed (shrink path), but patches that grow beyond the limit are
rejected
Hand-placed skills and hub-installed skills have NO hard limit —
they load and function normally regardless of size. Hub installs
get a warning in the log if SKILL.md exceeds 100k chars.
This mirrors the memory system's char_limit pattern. Without this,
the agent auto-grows skills indefinitely through iterative patches
(hermes-agent-dev reached 197k chars / 72k tokens — 40x larger than
the largest skill in the entire skills.sh ecosystem).
Constants: MAX_SKILL_CONTENT_CHARS (100k), MAX_SKILL_FILE_BYTES (1MiB)
Tests: 14 new tests covering all write paths and edge cases
* feat(skills): add fuzzy matching to skill patch
_patch_skill now uses the same 8-strategy fuzzy matching engine
(tools/fuzzy_match.py) as the file patch tool. Handles whitespace
normalization, indentation differences, escape sequences, and
block-anchor matching. Eliminates exact-match failures when agents
patch skills with minor formatting mismatches.
