Tests did monkeypatch.setattr(<facade module>, name) where name is now defined in a
sibling module and the production path reads the sibling's binding. Where production
reads through BOTH bindings the setattr is duplicated onto the defining module (import
added next to the existing alias import); where only the sibling reads it the target is
repointed. Seams whose production readers go through the facade are left alone.
Second, deeper pass over tools/gateway/hermes_cli plus first pass over
the trees wave 1 missed (acp, acp_adapter, skills, computer_use, docker,
dashboard, conformance, monitoring, secret_sources, hermes_state,
providers). Same rubric as wave 1 (AGENTS.md test policy); security,
alternation/caching invariants, issue-number regressions, and E2E kept.
Real test-quality fixes found and rooted out along the way:
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py made real auxiliary-LLM HTTPS calls
(DEFAULT_CONFIG smart-approval leaked in) — pinned approval
mode=manual via autouse fixture: 17.4s → 0.4s.
- test_model_switch_custom_providers.py / test_user_providers_model_switch.py
silently probed live provider catalogs (~2s/test) — stubbed
cached_provider_model_ids/provider_model_ids/fetch_api_models.
- test_telegram_noise_filter.py: 15-platform copy-paste matrix over
shared gateway.run logic → 3 representative platforms (55s → 3.9s).
- test_gateway_shutdown.py: stop()'s 5s interrupt-deadline loop spun on
MagicMock agents — interrupt.side_effect now clears _running_agents
(22s → 1.0s).
- test_gateway_inactivity_timeout.py poll-harness timings shrunk 3-5x
(24s → 1.1s); test_mcp_stability.py backoff/SIGTERM-grace sleeps
patched (15.4s → 2.5s); test_async_delegation.py negative-drain wait
5s → 0.5s.
- test_telegram_init_deadline.py: loop-block margin restored to 1.0s
with rationale comment — the watchdog-dump assertion needs the loop
blocked well past deadline+grace under parallel load (flaked once in
the 40-worker verification run at a 0.2s margin).
Verification: full hermetic suite via scripts/run_tests.sh —
2,438 files, 21,718 tests passed, 0 failed, 293.9s wall.
Suite totals vs original baseline: 46,820 → 19,757 test functions
(−57.8%), wall 583.5s → 293.9s (−50%), subprocess CPU 13,564s → 11,623s.
Follow-up widening of the /api/status fix: add get_nous_auth_status_local(),
a refresh-free auth-store snapshot (local invoke-JWT decode only), and use it
on the read-only display surfaces that previously called
get_nous_auth_status() -> resolve_nous_runtime_credentials() -> live OAuth
refresh POST:
- hermes_cli/status.py (hermes status auth-provider panel)
- hermes_cli/doctor.py (hermes doctor auth-provider checks)
- hermes_cli/portal_cli.py (hermes portal status display)
- hermes_cli/web_server.py /api/portal endpoint and the accounts-tab
provider card dispatcher (_resolve_provider_status nous branch)
Action paths (login flows, portal operations needing a live credential)
keep using get_nous_auth_status(). Part of NS-592.
A hosted agent whose Nous bootstrap session dies terminally (invalid_grant /
quarantine) looks HEALTHY to every liveness/connectivity probe — the machine,
relay ws, and dashboard all stay up — yet every inference turn hard-fails with
a provider-auth error until a human re-logs-in. Nothing currently surfaces that
condition to NAS.
Add get_nous_session_validity() (valid|terminal|unknown), classified from local
auth-store state (no working token required), and report it on the public
/api/status payload. NAS's 2-min health sweep reads it and re-mints the
bootstrap session in place on 'terminal'.
Anti-flap: only a terminal failure (relogin_required / persisted quarantine
marker with tokens cleared) maps to 'terminal'; transient/mid-rotation blips and
merely-expiring tokens report 'unknown' so a healthy box never triggers a
spurious re-mint.
Part of the hosted-agent bootstrap-session self-heal (NAS side reads this field).
