When a subagent in delegate_task times out before making its first LLM
request, write a structured diagnostic file under
~/.hermes/logs/subagent-timeout-<sid>-<ts>.log capturing enough state
for the user (and us) to debug the hang. The old error message —
'Subagent timed out after Ns with no response. The child may be stuck
on a slow API call or unresponsive network request.' — gave no
observability for the 0-API-call case, which is the hardest to reason
about remotely.
The diagnostic captures:
- timeout config vs actual duration
- goal (truncated to 1000 chars)
- child config: model, provider, api_mode, base_url, max_iterations,
quiet_mode, platform, _delegate_role, _delegate_depth
- enabled_toolsets + loaded tool names
- system prompt byte/char count (catches oversized prompts that
providers silently choke on)
- tool schema count + byte size
- child's get_activity_summary() snapshot
- Python stack of the worker thread at the moment of timeout
(reveals whether the hang is in credential resolution, transport,
prompt construction, etc.)
Wiring:
- _run_single_child captures the worker thread via a small wrapper
around child.run_conversation so we can look up its stack at
timeout.
- After a FuturesTimeoutError, we pull child.get_activity_summary()
to read api_call_count. If 0 AND it was a timeout (not a raise),
_dump_subagent_timeout_diagnostic() is invoked.
- The returned path is surfaced in the error string so the parent
agent (and therefore the user / gateway) sees exactly where to look.
- api_calls > 0 timeouts keep the old 'stuck on slow API call'
phrasing since that's the correct diagnosis for those.
This does NOT change any behavior for successful subagent runs,
non-timeout errors, or subagents that made at least one API call
before hanging.
Tests: 7 cases (tests/tools/test_delegate_subagent_timeout_diagnostic.py)
- output format + required sections + field values
- long-goal truncation with [truncated] marker
- missing / already-exited worker thread branches
- unwritable HERMES_HOME/logs/ returns None without raising
- _run_single_child wiring: 0 API calls → dump + diagnostic_path in error
- _run_single_child wiring: N>0 API calls → no dump, old message
