The initial guardrail PR consolidated failure classification by pointing
display._detect_tool_failure at the new classify_tool_failure helper,
which was strictly broader: it flagged any JSON result with
"success": false / "failed": true / non-empty "error", plus plain-text
"traceback" and "error:" prefixes. That would uptick the user-visible
[error] tag on tools that return {"success": false} as a benign signal
(memory fullness, todo state, etc.) and feed the failure-streak counter
at the same time.
Restore display._detect_tool_failure to its pre-PR semantics verbatim.
Tighten classify_tool_failure (the guardrail's internal safety-fallback
used only when callers don't pass failed=) to match _detect_tool_failure
exactly, so the two never disagree. Production callers in run_agent.py
already pass an explicit failed= derived from _detect_tool_failure, so
the guardrail counter is driven by the same signal the CLI shows.
_process_message_background snapshotted callback_generation from the
interrupt event at the TOP of the task — before the handler ran.
_hermes_run_generation is only set on the event by
GatewayRunner._bind_adapter_run_generation during
_handle_message_with_agent, which runs DURING the handler await. The
early snapshot always captured None, which then flowed into
pop_post_delivery_callback(..., generation=None) in the finally block.
In pop_post_delivery_callback, generation=None with a tuple-registered
entry (generation, callback) bypasses the ownership check — it pops and
fires the callback regardless of which run owns it. Result: a stale run
could fire a fresher run's post-delivery callback (e.g. a
background-review notification attributed to the wrong turn).
Fix: move the snapshot into the finally block, after the handler has
run and _hermes_run_generation has been bound to the current run.
Regression test added: simulates a stale handler at generation=1 and a
fresher callback registered at generation=2. Pre-fix: snapshot=None →
pop fires the generation=2 callback under generation=1's ownership
("newer" fires). Post-fix: snapshot=1 → pop skips the mismatched
entry, callback stays in the dict for the correct run to claim.
Verified: test FAILS on current main (captures "newer" in fired list),
PASSES with this fix.
Salvaged from PR #12565 (the callback-ownership portion only; the
/status totals portion was already fixed on main in 7abc9ce4d via #17158).

Widens #16528 to two sibling sites that had the same quoted-boolean
bug: a YAML string "false" (or "0", "no", "off") silently evaluated
truthy under bool() / if-check.
- gateway/run.py _load_show_reasoning: is_truthy_value wrap
- tools/skill_manager_tool.py _guard_agent_created_enabled: is_truthy_value wrap
- regression tests for both
SELECT in get_messages_as_conversation() was missing finish_reason, so
assistant messages round-tripped through replay (including /branch copies)
silently dropped the provider's stop signal. Adds it to the SELECT, restores
it on assistant rows, and locks it in with a round-trip test.
When running on a host with sudoers NOPASSWD configured for the current
user, interactive Hermes sessions were unnecessarily entering the
password prompt path before executing sudo commands. Outside Hermes,
`sudo -n true` exits 0 for that user.
Add `_sudo_nopasswd_works()` that probes `sudo -n true` and, when it
succeeds, lets `_transform_sudo_command()` return the command unchanged
with no stdin password. The probe:
- Is scoped to the `local` terminal backend only, so Docker/SSH/Modal
and other remote backends do not inherit host sudo state.
- Re-probes every call (no process-lifetime cache) so an expired sudo
timestamp cannot silently make a later command block waiting for a
password that Hermes never prompts for.
- Is bypassed entirely when `SUDO_PASSWORD` is configured or a cached
password already exists, preserving existing explicit-password flows.

The fix for this bug (isinstance guard) was merged via commit 3ff9e010,
but test coverage was not included. Adding 4 tests:
- dict metadata with hermes keys (normal case)
- string metadata (bug case — previously caused AttributeError)
- None metadata
- missing metadata key
Proves token A's detected capabilities do not leak to token B after the
fix in the preceding commit. Before the fix this test would have seen
both tokens return token A's cached value.
_capability_cache was a single module-level dict shared across all
tokens. If the bot token rotates or multiple tokens are used in one
process, capabilities detected for token A would be returned for
token B, causing wrong schema gating and incorrect runtime behavior.
Replace the single Optional cache with a Dict keyed by token so each
token gets its own isolated capability entry.
_SupervisorRegistry.get_or_start() returned an existing supervisor
whenever the cdp_url matched, without checking if the supervisor's
thread or event loop was still alive. A crashed supervisor would be
silently reused, causing missed dialog/frame updates.
Now checks both _thread.is_alive() and _loop.is_running() before
returning the cached instance. An unhealthy supervisor is torn down
and recreated, matching the existing URL-changed code path.
_get_peer() and _get_or_create_honcho_session() accessed _peers_cache
and _sessions_cache without holding _cache_lock, while other paths
in the same class use the lock consistently. Under concurrent tool
calls or prefetch threads, this can produce stale reads or lost
cache updates.
Wrap both unguarded cache read sites in _cache_lock. Network calls
(honcho.peer() and honcho.session()) remain outside the lock to
avoid holding it during I/O.
Three int() calls in HonchoClient.from_global_config() parsed
dialecticMaxChars, messageMaxChars, and dialecticMaxInputChars
directly without guards. A malformed value in honcho.json would
raise ValueError and abort provider initialization entirely.
Add _parse_int_config() helper following the existing
_parse_context_tokens() pattern, and replace all three raw
int() calls with it.
Add two operator-facing toggles for inbound Feishu admission, enabling
bot-to-bot scenarios such as A2A orchestration and inter-bot
notifications:
FEISHU_ALLOW_BOTS=none|mentions|all (default: none)
Accept messages from other bots. `mentions` requires the peer
bot to @-mention Hermes; `all` admits every peer-bot message.
FEISHU_REQUIRE_MENTION=true|false (default: true)
Whether group messages must @-mention the bot. Override per-chat
via `group_rules.<chat_id>.require_mention` in config.yaml.
Defaults preserve prior behavior. Self-echo protection is always on:
when the bot's identity is unresolved (auto-detection failed and
FEISHU_BOT_OPEN_ID unset), peer-bot messages are rejected fail-closed
to avoid feedback loops.
Admitted peer bots bypass the human-user allowlist
(FEISHU_ALLOWED_USERS) to match existing Discord behavior; humans
still need an explicit allowlist entry. yaml feishu.allow_bots is
bridged to the env var so the adapter and gateway auth layer share
one source of truth.
Resolving peer-bot display names requires the
application:bot.basic_info:read scope; without it, peers still route
but appear as their open_id.
Test: tests/gateway/test_feishu_bot_admission.py covers the admission
pipeline, group-policy bot-bypass, hydration, and event-dispatch
plumbing as a parametrized matrix.
Change-Id: I363cccb578c2a5c8b8bf0f0a890c01c89909e256
reset_session() creates a fresh SessionEntry with created_at == updated_at,
but get_or_create_session() bumps updated_at on the next inbound message,
causing _is_new_session in _handle_message_with_agent to evaluate False.
The topic/channel skill auto-load gate (group_topics, channel_skill_bindings)
silently skips the first message after a manual reset.
Add an is_fresh_reset flag on SessionEntry, set by reset_session() and
consumed once by the message handler. Kept distinct from was_auto_reset
because that flag also drives a 'session expired due to inactivity'
user-facing notice and a context-note prepend — both wrong for an
explicit /new or /reset.
Persisted through to_dict/from_dict so the flag survives gateway
restart between /reset and the next message.

/status was reading session_entry.total_tokens from the in-memory
SessionStore (gateway/session.py), which the agent never writes to —
so the token count was always 0.
The agent already persists token deltas to the SQLite SessionDB
(run_agent.py:11497) for every platform with a session_id. Route
/status through that single source of truth instead of duplicating
token writes into a second store.
Fix:
- gateway/run.py: _handle_status_command now calls
self._session_db.get_session(session_id) and sums the five token
component columns (input/output/cache_read/cache_write/reasoning).
Falls back to 0 when no SessionDB is configured or no row exists.
- Two new regression tests covering the populated-row and
missing-row paths.

Minor follow-up to the native-image-buffer isolation fix. The write site
in _prepare_inbound_message_text was calling build_session_key directly,
while every other call site in gateway/run.py uses the _session_key_for_source
helper — which consults session_store._generate_session_key first and falls
back to build_session_key. Keeping the write key and consume key on the
same helper prevents key drift if the session store ever overrides the
default keying behavior.
_SLASH_WORKER_TIMEOUT_S and _pool used raw float()/int() on env vars
at module level. A non-numeric value (e.g. HERMES_TUI_SLASH_TIMEOUT_S=abc)
raises ValueError during import, preventing TUI gateway from starting
with no useful error message.
Wrap both parses in try/except with safe fallbacks:
- HERMES_TUI_SLASH_TIMEOUT_S: fallback to 45.0s
- HERMES_TUI_RPC_POOL_WORKERS: fallback to 4 workers
sqlite3 can only bind str/bytes/int/float/None to query parameters.
Multimodal message content is a list of parts (text + image_url), which
raised 'Error binding parameter 3: type list is not supported' in
append_message and replace_messages.
In the CLI/TUI this surfaced as a visible crash when users pasted
screenshots. In the gateway it was silently swallowed by a bare except
in append_to_transcript, causing multimodal turns to be lost from the
session transcript.
Fix at the DB layer: _encode_content wraps lists/dicts as
'\\x00json:' + json.dumps(...) on write, _decode_content unwraps on
read. Plain strings are untouched, so existing FTS search, previews,
and JSONL compat are unaffected. Paired decode in get_messages,
get_messages_as_conversation, and search_messages context previews.
Regression test covers: list content round-trip, dict content
round-trip, string content stored unchanged, replace_messages with
multimodal content.
Also included: aligned fix#17522 for TUI image attachment with
paths containing spaces (see previous commit).
Remove frontend regex pre-check that truncated paths containing spaces,
quotes, or Windows drive letters. Backend _detect_file_drop correctly
handles these patterns. This fixes image attachment for common filenames
like "Screenshot 2026-04-29.png".
Add tests:
- test_input_detect_drop_path_with_spaces: attaches image with spaces in name
- test_input_detect_drop_path_with_spaces_and_remainder: remainder handling
Also restored missing in test_rollback_restore_resolves_number_and_file_path.

Widens the cherry-picked fix from @jatingodnani (#17343) to the
gateway path. On main, user_config.agent.disabled_toolsets was only
honored by _get_platform_tools' name-level subtraction — it did not
catch tools pulled in implicitly by a composite toolset (browser
includes web_search, hermes-* platforms include most tools).
Changes:
- gateway/run.py: resolve disabled_toolsets alongside enabled_toolsets
and pass to AIAgent at both user-facing construction sites (normal
message loop + single-turn cron-like path). Hygiene/compression
agents (fixed enabled_toolsets=[memory]) are intentionally untouched.
- gateway/run.py: add (agent, disabled_toolsets) to
_CACHE_BUSTING_CONFIG_KEYS so editing the list in config.yaml
invalidates the cached AIAgent on the next message.
- cli.py: drop unused 'import platform' left over from PR #17343's
import churn; restore 'import sys' used throughout the file.
- model_tools.py: drop unused 'import os, sys' added by PR #17343;
fix comment reference from #15291 (unrelated OAuth issue) to #17309.

Refactor tool resolution logic in model_tools.py to ensure that
disabled_toolsets are always subtracted at the end, preventing
composite toolsets (e.g. 'browser') from implicitly enabling tools
that should be hidden.
- Added 'disabled_toolsets' to DEFAULT_CONFIG in hermes_cli/config.py
- Updated HermesCLI in cli.py to load and propagate disabled toolsets to AIAgent
- Implemented robust two-phase resolution (additive then subtractive) in model_tools.py
Themes previously embedded layout-affecting values (baseSize, lineHeight,
density, letterSpacing) alongside visual identity properties, coupling
user ergonomic preferences to color theme selection.
This change establishes a clear separation of concerns:
- Themes own: palette, font family, border-radius, and font-coupled
letterSpacing (e.g. Inter's -0.005em tracking)
- Layout scale (baseSize, lineHeight, density) is standardized via
DEFAULT_TYPOGRAPHY and DEFAULT_LAYOUT — not overridden per theme
All themes now spread DEFAULT_TYPOGRAPHY and DEFAULT_LAYOUT as their
base, removing silent divergence and making future layout settings
(e.g. user-configurable density) trivially applicable across all themes
without per-theme special-casing.
All built-in themes now spread DEFAULT_TYPOGRAPHY, removing independent
baseSize overrides and converging on 15px. All themes also use
density: comfortable, removing the compact/spacious divergence that
caused item-count shifts on fixed-height pages (e.g. Skills).
Two additional per-theme overrides are also normalized:
- rose: lineHeight: "1.7" removed — was paired with density: spacious
for an airy feel; once density was normalised the elevated line-height
became an orphaned artefact causing nav item height drift.
- cyberpunk: letterSpacing changed from "0.02em" to "0" — extra tracking
on top of an already-wide monospace font caused text to wrap earlier
than in other themes.
Switching themes is now a purely cosmetic change — color palette,
font family, border-radius, and typographic style differ; font size,
spacing, line-height, and letter-spacing do not.
- Move the disabled-ack guard above the debounce so we don't stamp
_busy_ack_ts[session_key] when no ack was actually sent. Harmless
(never read when disabled) but cosmetically off.
- Document display.busy_ack_enabled in user-guide/messaging/index.md
and HERMES_GATEWAY_BUSY_ACK_ENABLED in reference/environment-variables.md.
- Add JezzaHehn to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP for contributor credit.
Follow-up to #17491 (Jezza Hehn).
When a user sends a message while the gateway is busy processing,
an acknowledgment message is sent. This can be spammy for users
who send rapid messages.
Add display.busy_ack_enabled config option (default: true) to allow
users to suppress these busy-input acknowledgment messages.
Fixes#17457
When a user defines `custom_providers: [{name: kimi, ...}]` and references
`provider: kimi` from fallback_model or the main config, the built-in alias
rewriting (`kimi` → `kimi-coding`) was hijacking the request before the
named-custom lookup ran. `_get_named_custom_provider` also refused to
return a match when the raw name resolved to any built-in (including aliases),
so the custom endpoint was unreachable.
Fix at both layers of the resolution chain so every caller benefits, not
just `_try_activate_fallback`:
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py: narrow `_get_named_custom_provider`'s
built-in-wins guard to canonical provider names only. An alias like
`kimi` that resolves to a different canonical (`kimi-coding`) no longer
blocks the custom lookup; a canonical name like `nous` still does.
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: in `resolve_provider_client`, try the named-
custom lookup with the original (pre-alias-normalization) name before the
alias-normalized one, so aliased requests reach the user's custom entry.
Also honour `explicit_base_url` and `explicit_api_key` in the API-key
provider branch so callers that pass explicit hints (e.g. fallback
activation) can override the registered defaults.
Tests added for:
- custom `kimi` shadowing built-in alias (regression for #15743)
- custom `nous` NOT shadowing canonical built-in (behaviour preserved)
- bare `kimi` without any custom entry still routing to built-in
- explicit base_url/api_key override on the API-key provider branch
Original PR #17827 by @Feranmi10 identified the same bug class and
implemented a narrower fix in `_try_activate_fallback`; this reshapes the
fix to live in the shared resolution layer so all callers benefit.
Fixes#15743

Follow-up to the previous commit. Replace the post-fetch Python re-sort (which
required dropping LIMIT/OFFSET from SQL and scanning every session row) with a
recursive CTE that walks compression-continuation chains and computes
effective_last_active per root at SQL level. The outer query can then ORDER BY
+ LIMIT efficiently, and the Python projection loop no longer has to handle
ordering.
This preserves the correctness win (old compression roots whose live tip was
touched recently surface correctly) without the O(N) scan, which matters for
users with thousands of sessions.
Adds a regression test pinning the compression-tip case at limit=1 — the
stress case that any bounded-oversample shortcut would get wrong.

- order session_search recent-mode results by last activity instead of session start time
- add an opt-in `order_by_last_active` path to `SessionDB.list_sessions_rich`
- add regression coverage for both the database ordering and recent-mode call path
The PR wired in a detached watcher that respawns manual profile gateways
after they exit. Pair that with a SIGUSR1 graceful drain (same path
systemd/launchd use) so in-flight agent runs finish instead of getting
SIGTERM'd. Fall back to SIGTERM if SIGUSR1 isn't wired or the gateway
doesn't exit within the drain budget — the watcher sees the exit and
relaunches either way.
Tested end-to-end against an orphaned gateway: graceful drain exits in
0.5s and the watcher fires the relaunch command.
