* feat(agent): coding-context posture with per-model edit-format tuning Hermes detects when it's running in a coding context — an interactive surface (CLI, TUI, ACP, desktop) sitting in a code workspace (git repo or recognised project root) — and shifts into a coding posture. Outside that (chat platforms, non-workspaces) nothing changes. The posture is modelled as a frozen RuntimeMode selected from a small ContextProfile registry (coding/general). A profile is data: the toolset to collapse to, the operating brief to inject, and seams for model routing and memory. Every domain reads the same resolved object instead of re-probing git/config on its own: - System prompt — RuntimeMode.system_blocks(): an operating brief (gather context before editing, edit through tools not chat, verify with terminal, cap retry loops) plus a live git/workspace snapshot, built once and baked into the stable prompt tier so per-conversation caching is preserved. - Per-model edit-format tuning — the brief nudges each model family toward the patch mode it handles best: OpenAI/Codex toward mode='patch' (V4A multi-file diffs), Anthropic toward mode='replace' (string replacement). The model id rides on RuntimeMode; unknown families keep neutral wording. - Skill index — non-coding skill categories are pruned from the prompt's skill index (discovery-only; skills_list/skill_view still reach the full catalog, with a disclosure note). - Toolset — only under the opt-in 'focus' mode does the posture collapse to the coding toolset + enabled MCP servers; the default posture is prompt-only and never overrides configured toolsets. Activation via agent.coding_context: auto (default), focus, on, off. Subagents inherit the posture for free via toolset inheritance + the shared prompt builder. Detection is not memoized so a long-lived gateway/TUI process can't pin a stale posture across working directories. * feat(agent): cover new-file authoring in the coding edit-format nudge The per-model edit-format guidance only addressed editing existing code (patch mode='patch' vs 'replace'), but authoring a brand-new file — write_file, not patch — is a large fraction of real coding work and the nudge was silent on it. Surfaced when building a single-file artifact where the dominant operation was write_file and the steering offered no guidance. Both family lines now lead with "author new files with write_file; for edits to existing code prefer ...". Tests assert write_file appears in each family's brief; unknown families still get neutral wording. * docs(agent): correct memoization docstring + clarify TUI config-load asymmetry * feat(agent): sharpen the coding posture — verify-loop facts, wider edit steering, $HOME guard Tuning pass on the coding posture from dogfooding it as a harness: - Workspace snapshot now hands the model its verify loop up front: detected manifests + package manager (lockfile sniff), the exact verify commands (package.json scripts, Makefile targets, scripts/run_tests.sh, pytest config), and which context files (AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md / .cursorrules) exist at the root. Marker-only (non-git) projects get the snapshot too instead of nothing. The "verify before claiming done" brief line was the highest-value piece in evals — this turns it from advice into an executable loop instead of making the model rediscover the test command every session. Still stat-cheap, size-guarded reads, built once at prompt time. - Edit-format steering covers the families Hermes actually serves: Gemini and open-weight coding models (DeepSeek, Qwen, Kimi, GLM, Grok, Hermes, Llama, Mistral, Devstral, MiniMax) steer to mode='replace' — their RL scaffolds use str_replace-style editors. Previously only GPT/Codex and Claude families got steering; the models Hermes users disproportionately run all fell to neutral. - Operating brief gains four behaviors elite harnesses encode: batch independent reads/searches in one turn; fix root causes and the bug class (sibling call paths), not the reported site; no drive-by refactors/renames/reformatting; never read, print, or commit secrets. Plus a patch-failure escalation ladder: after the same region fails twice, rewrite the enclosing function/file with write_file instead of a third patch attempt. - $HOME dotfiles guard: a git repo rooted exactly at the home directory (or a marker sitting in it, e.g. a global ~/AGENTS.md) is user config, not a code workspace — without the guard, every session anywhere under a dotfiles-managed home silently flipped to the coding posture. Real projects under such a home still detect via their own markers/repos; 'on' mode bypasses the guard. |
