Main's rewritten test_tui_npm_install.py tests call _make_tui_argv expecting
the Ink/npm flow unconditionally; with the dual-engine dispatch merged in,
_resolve_tui_engine() auto-selects opentui whenever ui-opentui/dist is built
in the repo, routing the call away from the path under test (first subprocess
became 'node --version' instead of 'npm run build'). Pin the engine to ink
via an autouse fixture, mirroring the existing pinning precedent in
test_tui_resume_flow.py.
hermes --tui launches the native OpenTUI engine (Bun) when
HERMES_TUI_ENGINE=opentui (env) or display.tui_engine=opentui (config);
Ink stays the default and the shipping path is untouched.
- _resolve_tui_engine() (env > config > ink); refuses opentui on
Windows/Termux (no Bun) -> falls back to ink with a notice.
- _make_opentui_argv() -> [bun, src/entry.real.tsx] (no build step).
- _bun_bin() with HERMES_BUN override.
- Branch at top of _make_tui_argv BEFORE _ensure_tui_node (Bun-only host
must not bootstrap Node).
- Gate _launch_tui NODE_OPTIONS/--max-old-space-size on engine==ink (Bun
is JSC; the V8 flag errors/ignores).
Verified end-to-end via tmux: real hermes --tui -> Bun -> OpenTUI ->
real Python gateway streamed a real reply. No-flag default still ink.
Salvage of PR #27978 cherry-picked onto current main, resolving conflicts
with main's intervening SimpleX plugin fixes (resp-envelope normalization,
health-monitor reconnect-churn fix, bare-form DM addressing).
What's new:
- Group support via SIMPLEX_GROUP_ALLOWED (comma-separated IDs or '*');
inbound items surface chat_id=group:<id> + chat_type=group. Disabled by
default so a bot in a group doesn't process every member's traffic.
- Inbound files/voice via rcvFileDescrReady (immediate /freceive) deferred
through _pending_file_transfers, replayed on rcvFileComplete. Voice notes
-> MessageType.VOICE.
- Native outbound media: send_image (PNG/JPEG + inline thumbnail), send_voice
(msgContent.type=voice), send_video, send_document. All addressed by numeric
ID via /_send ... json [...].
- MEDIA:<path> tags in agent replies stripped and dispatched as voice/document.
- Text-burst batching (HERMES_SIMPLEX_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY, default 0.8s).
- Auto-accept contact requests (SIMPLEX_AUTO_ACCEPT, default true).
- Group send path uses structured /_send #<id> json form (the bracket
#[<id>] form is parsed as display-name lookup and silently drops).
plugin.yaml bumped to 1.1.0; docs updated. All inside plugins/platforms/simplex/
- no core edits.

SimpleX Chat (https://simplex.chat) is a private, decentralised messenger
with no persistent user IDs — every contact is identified by an opaque
internal ID generated at connection time. This adds it as a Hermes
gateway platform via the plugin system.
The adapter connects to a local simplex-chat daemon via WebSocket,
listens for inbound messages, and sends replies. Originally proposed in
PR #2558 as a core-modifying integration; reshaped here as a self-
contained plugin under plugins/platforms/simplex/ with no edits to any
core file. Discovery is filesystem-based (scanned by gateway.config),
and the platform identity is resolved on demand via Platform("simplex").
Plugin contract:
- check_requirements() requires SIMPLEX_WS_URL AND the websockets package
- validate_config() / is_connected() accept env or config.yaml input
- _env_enablement() seeds PlatformConfig.extra (ws_url + home_channel)
- _standalone_send() supports out-of-process cron delivery
- interactive_setup() provides a stdin wizard for hermes gateway setup
- register() wires the adapter into the registry with required_env,
install_hint, cron_deliver_env_var, allowed_users_env, and a
platform_hint for the LLM.
Lazy dependency: the websockets Python package is imported inside the
functions that need it. The plugin is importable and discoverable even
when websockets is missing — check_requirements() simply returns False
until `pip install websockets` is run. No new pyproject extras are
introduced.
Environment variables:
SIMPLEX_WS_URL WebSocket URL of the daemon (required)
SIMPLEX_ALLOWED_USERS Comma-separated allowed contact IDs
SIMPLEX_ALLOW_ALL_USERS Set true to allow all contacts
SIMPLEX_HOME_CHANNEL Default contact for cron delivery
SIMPLEX_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME Human label for the home channel
Closes#2557.
