`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/<dir>/` is how a change gets its regression
coverage run, so a test filed under the wrong directory is a test nobody
runs when that code changes. Two kinds of drift had accumulated.
Parallel directories for one source package, folded into the mirror:
tests/acp -> tests/acp_adapter (its __init__/conftest move with it)
tests/cli -> tests/hermes_cli (prompt_toolkit fixture merged into
hermes_cli/conftest.py)
tests/run_agent -> tests/agent (backoff fixture becomes
agent/conftest.py)
tests/relay -> tests/gateway/relay
tests/state -> tests/hermes_state
246 loose files at tests/ root, routed by the package they import/patch:
hermes_cli, hermes_state, agent, gateway, tools, plugins, tui_gateway, cron.
Installer and desktop-update script tests go to tests/scripts/{install,
desktop_update}/. 43 tests of root-level modules (batch_runner, utils,
hermes_constants, packaging) stay at the root.
Filenames drop their issue numbers (95 files: test_89315_x.py -> test_x.py);
the number stays in the module docstring where it has context.
Collisions: test_cli_skin_integration.py existed in both tests/ and tests/cli
with different subsets — merged into one (10 tests, all kept);
run_agent/test_pre_compress_memory_context.py -> agent/..._handoff.py;
tests/test_account_usage.py -> agent/test_account_usage_fetch.py;
tests/test_web_server.py -> hermes_cli/test_web_server_ws_ping.py.
Deleted: test_minisweagent_path.py (empty since PR #2804),
test_model_picker_scroll.py (tested a private copy of the logic, imported
nothing), test_process_loop_event_loop_warning.py (asserted asyncio behaviour,
imported nothing from Hermes).
Repo-root path arithmetic (Path(__file__).parents[N], dirname chains) is
bumped for the 202 files that changed depth and verified by evaluating every
such expression against the new location. classify_changes' desktop-updater
lane prefix, tests-os.yml's ignore glob and every in-tree path comment follow
the moves. tests/test_tests_tree_layout.py keeps the tree from drifting back.
Live-reproduced on main: /handoff poll-waited a flat 60s for a TERMINAL
state, but the gateway's dispatch is a full synthetic agent turn (whole
transcript replay + delivery) that routinely exceeds 60s on long sessions.
The CLI then printed "Timed out waiting for the gateway. Is `hermes
gateway` running?" (false diagnosis), called fail_handoff() on the RUNNING
row (stomping the gateway's claim), and promised "Your CLI session is
intact" after switch_session had already re-pointed the session. The
watcher later overwrote failed -> completed: split-brain.
- hermes_state.fail_handoff gains only_states CAS; waiters can only fail
rows still pending. Owner (gateway watcher) keeps the unconditional form.
- CLI wait loop is two-phase: 60s for the CLAIM (pending) — a timeout
there really does mean no gateway — then up to 15 min for the claimed
dispatch with 30s heartbeats; a running row is never failed by the CLI.
- Desktop handoff.fail RPC now CAS-fails pending rows only; a running row
returns {failed: false, state: running} instead of stomping the claim.
Repro (real _handoff_watcher, real state.db, CLI as separate process,
75s dispatch): before — CLI timeout @60s + false message + row stomped;
after — pending->running@5s->completed@80s, clean CLI exit.
