* feat(nix): container-aware CLI — auto-route all subcommands into managed container
When container.enable = true, the host `hermes` CLI transparently execs
every subcommand into the managed Docker/Podman container. A symlink
bridge (~/.hermes -> /var/lib/hermes/.hermes) unifies state between host
and container so sessions, config, and memories are shared.
CLI changes:
- Global routing before subcommand dispatch (all commands forwarded)
- docker exec with -u exec_user, env passthrough (TERM, COLORTERM,
LANG, LC_ALL), TTY-aware flags
- Retry with spinner on failure (TTY: 5s, non-TTY: 10s silent)
- Hard fail instead of silent fallback
- HERMES_DEV=1 env var bypasses routing for development
- No routing messages (invisible to user)
NixOS module changes:
- container.hostUsers option: lists users who get ~/.hermes symlink
and automatic hermes group membership
- Activation script creates symlink bridge (with backup of existing
~/.hermes dirs), writes exec_user to .container-mode
- Cleanup on disable: removes symlinks + .container-mode + stops service
- Warning when hostUsers set without addToSystemPackages
* fix: address review — reuse sudo var, add chown -h on symlink update
- hermes_cli/main.py: reuse the existing `sudo` variable instead of
redundant `shutil.which("sudo")` call that could return None
- nix/nixosModules.nix: add missing `chown -h` when updating an
existing symlink target so ownership stays consistent with the
fresh-create and backup-replace branches
* fix: address remaining review items from cursor bugbot
- hermes_cli/main.py: move container routing BEFORE parse_args() so
--help, unrecognised flags, and all subcommands are forwarded
transparently into the container instead of being intercepted by
argparse on the host (high severity)
- nix/nixosModules.nix: resolve home dirs via
config.users.users.${user}.home instead of hardcoding /home/${user},
supporting users with custom home directories (medium severity)
- nix/nixosModules.nix: gate hostUsers group membership on
container.enable so setting hostUsers without container mode doesn't
silently add users to the hermes group (low severity)
* fix: simplify container routing — execvp, no retries, let it crash
- Replace subprocess.run retry loop with os.execvp (no idle parent process)
- Extract _probe_container helper for sudo detection with 15s timeout
- Narrow exception handling: FileNotFoundError only in get_container_exec_info,
catch TimeoutExpired specifically, remove silent except Exception: pass
- Collapse needs_sudo + sudo into single sudo_path variable
- Simplify NixOS symlink creation from 4 branches to 2
- Gate NixOS sudoers hint with "On NixOS:" prefix
- Full test rewrite: 18 tests covering execvp, sudo probe, timeout, permissions
