_persist_credential promises "leaving all else intact", but it seeded
its write from _read_config, which returns {} on ANY read failure, and
_atomic_write_config replaces the whole file via os.replace — which
needs only a writable parent, so a present-but-unreadable honcho.json
did not stop the overwrite. One OSError (EACCES after a root-owned
write, EIO, a stalled mount) during an automatic token refresh or a
fresh login therefore replaced the store with a single-host file,
destroying every other host's credentials and honcho.json's root
config. No user action is required to trigger the refresh path.
Same defect class as #75206 (P1, fixed for the core auth store in
Add _read_config_strict for the write paths: a missing file still
bootstraps as {}; an unreadable file raises with the store untouched;
genuine corruption still degrades but preserves a .corrupt copy first,
since a truncated store usually holds the other hosts' tokens verbatim.
_rotate_and_persist now takes its strict read BEFORE the exchange —
rotation is single-use, so an exchange whose result cannot be persisted
loses the grant — and threads the dict through to _persist_credential,
which also closes the re-read race between the locked read and the
persist. install_grant seeds its root-merge from the strict reader for
the same reason. Read paths keep their fail-open contract untouched;
both readers now use utf-8-sig so a BOM'd store is not misclassified
as corruption (the wipe vector needing no filesystem fault at all).
Adds TestPersistReadFailure: six tests, four of which fail against the
previous source; the rotate-ordering test additionally pins that no
exchange is attempted against an unreadable store.
reading the live client's api_key inside _force_reauth races the in-place
rotation: a sibling waiter's apply_token_to_client (or the proactive
refresh entered via the honcho property) can swap the bearer before the
read, so force_refresh_token receives the already-rotated token, disk
matches it, and the adopt branch never fires — reproducing the very
force-refresh burst this PR removes.
_authed_call now snapshots the bearer before invoking the operation and
passes that exact token through to force_refresh_token.
desktop spawns multiple serve processes that share one rotating honcho
refresh token. force_refresh_token treated every 401 as "rotate now" even
when a sibling had already persisted a new grant, which can replay a
single-use refresh token and revoke the whole grant.
re-read honcho.json under the existing file lock and adopt if the token
that 401'd is no longer on disk. on invalid_grant, re-read once more
before marking the grant dead.
The MCP config reconciler was appended to the gateway/run.py facade; it moves to
gateway/run_profile_reconcile.py, which already owns post-boot MCP discovery, and
run.py keeps only the chore-table entry.
reconcile_mcp_servers_with_config() also drops a schema-cache (lazy) registration
whose entry is gone (its cached tools would otherwise stay callable and spawn the
server on first use) and reports a dropped server still mid-connect as "pending";
the chore retries on the next tick without waiting for another config edit.
test_cron_delivery_housekeeping neutralizes the chore: it pins the exact
scope/drain sequence of the housekeeping loop and the new chore enters each
profile's scope once per tick.
A gateway with an OAuth MCP server whose refresh token expired opened a new
authorize tab every 300s, all night (92 tabs). Four defects stacked:
- The parked-server self-probe re-entered the SDK's authorization-code flow
with interactive OAuth enabled. The timed wake is unattended by definition:
`_wait_for_reconnect_or_shutdown` now distinguishes "self-probe" from an
explicit "reconnect", and `_park` flips the task-local
`_oauth_interactive_enabled` off before a self-probe revival.
- Gateway MCP discovery (startup, `/reload-mcp`, hot-added multiplex
profiles) ran interactive, unlike the CLI's background discovery. All three
now run under `suppress_interactive_oauth()`; an expired token parks with
the `hermes mcp login` hint instead of a browser.
- `_is_interactive()` trusted `sys.stdin.isatty()`, which the Windows CRT
reports True for a DEVNULL/detached stdin. `_stdin_is_console()` confirms
with `GetConsoleMode` on Windows.
- Removing an `mcp_servers` entry (or `enabled: false`) never reached a
running gateway; the parked server probed forever. New
`reconcile_mcp_servers_with_config()` tears down dropped/disabled servers
(via `shutdown_mcp_servers(names=...)`) and connects new ones; a
housekeeping chore runs it when config.yaml's (mtime, size) changes.
`_select_new_servers` also stops nudging disabled parked servers.
Fixes#81830. Fixes the browser-storm item of #96320.
- Correct the per-generation reset comment: an in-place updater restart keeps
PTB's update_queue, so old-generation dispatches can briefly exceed
received; the check already treats that as no backlog.
- Make the once-per-stall gate explicit (cap the heartbeat count) instead of
relying on `!=`.
- Drop the dead getattr in _record_updates_received (only reachable after
_record_polling_progress dereferenced the same instance state); keep the
fallbacks in the heartbeat check and group-99 handler, which sibling
watchdogs share because object.__new__ adapter doubles exist in tests.
- Split the single invariant test so a failure names the broken guard:
stall-once, re-arm-on-progress, generation-reset; drop the unused _app mock.
Follow-up to the cherry-picked #102383 commit. The check as written was neither
sensitive nor specific:
- It aged the newest received update, so a wedged PTB dispatcher was never
reported while new updates kept arriving more often than every 300s (probe:
1 update/250s for an hour -> 0 reports).
- `delivered` counted only MessageEvents reaching the gateway handler, while
`received`/`dispatched` counted every Update; a single handled callback_query,
reaction, unauthorized user or unmentioned group message produced a false
ERROR after 300s of quiet.
- `_record_updates_received` skipped the generation/teardown guard
`_record_polling_progress` applies, and the counters never reset across
polling generations, so a late response from a fenced poll or a reconnect
inflated the backlog.
Now `received` and `dispatched` count the same population (every fetched
update reaches the group-99 catch-all) and the report fires when a backlog
persists with no dispatch progress across two 90s heartbeats, once per stall,
re-armed on progress, reset per generation, at WARNING (diagnostic only;
#71240 owns recovery). The delivered counter and the `note_inbound_delivered`
facade method are dropped; the once-per-adapter "no message handler" error on
BasePlatformAdapter.handle_message stays. `_record_polling_progress` returns
whether the round-trip was accepted so the received stamp reuses its gate.
Tests trimmed to two invariants; every guard proven red by mutation.
Refs #102260
Every Telegram health probe measures the transport. A getUpdates round-trip
that returns 200 proves bytes are moving and nothing else: the stall watchdog
(#92991), the pending-update probe (#42909/#55769), the get_me() heartbeat
(#66377) and the polling-progress instrumentation all stay green while updates
arrive and then die downstream. The adapter then publishes "connected", logs
nothing at all, and is indistinguishable from a bot nobody has messaged.
That is #102260: three weeks of telegram.state "connected" plus "polling
confirmed healthy: getUpdates progressing (generation 1)" with zero inbound
reaching the agent, surviving every restart. Two of the issue's three
hypotheses do not hold on this code — _record_polling_progress fires on every
round-trip (not only at start_polling), and _send_path_degraded is cleared on
the first confirmed round-trip — and the reporter's own observation that fresh
messages are received but not processed places the failure downstream of the
transport, in the one stretch with no instrumentation at all.
Add the missing delivered side of the accounting:
- received: updates Telegram handed the process, read from the getUpdates
envelope the adapter already parses (an empty result proves the transport,
not arrival, so only non-empty results count).
- dispatched: updates PTB's dispatcher carried through the whole handler
chain, stamped in the existing group-99 catch-all before its early returns.
- delivered: inbound events that reached the gateway's message handler,
stamped in BasePlatformAdapter.handle_message for every platform.
_check_ingress_delivery_gap runs on the existing heartbeat and, when updates
arrived but nothing was delivered for 300s, names the broken hop: received >
dispatched means the dispatcher is not draining, dispatched > delivered means
Hermes is dropping what arrives. Diagnostic only — a received update
legitimately reaches no gateway turn, and reconnecting a healthy transport
cannot repair a dropped update, so this never drives recovery.
Also make the silent discard on the shared funnel speak: handle_message
returned with no log when no message handler was installed, so a mis-wired
adapter discarded 100% of inbound while connected and able to send.

The composer showed "<model> · Med" in one truncating pill and the only way
to change the effort was to open the model menu, find the active model's
row, and hover it for the per-row options submenu. Users read the pill as
"this model is medium only" and never found the submenu.
- New `ReasoningPill` next to the model pill: shows the active model's live
effort (session value, else the profile default) and opens the same
Thinking / Fast / Effort rows the catalog submenu offers, for the active
model only. Hidden when the catalog reports `reasoning: false`; stays
while capabilities are unknown so it never flickers during the fetch.
Folds away with the model pill in the compact composer stages.
- `useModelMenuController` (shell sibling) now owns the session write /
preset / optimistic-store / rollback logic that lived inside
`ModelMenuPanel`; the model menu and the new `ReasoningMenuPanel` share it
so an edit from either surface is one code path. Tiles get their own
pill bound to their SessionView, primary or tile — never the globals.
- `ModelOptionsContent` (the submenu body) is exported container-free so
the pill's top-level menu renders it without a Radix Sub wrapper.
- The model pill drops the effort suffix (`formatModelPillLabel`: name +
Fast); `formatModelStatusLabel` had no other caller and is removed.
- `currentModelCapabilities()` in lib/model-options resolves the active
pick's caps through `catalogProviderMatches` (aliases, custom slugs).
Live (headless Electron + worktree `hermes serve`, CDP): before — one
pill "Deepseek V4 Flash · Low", no effort control; after — "Deepseek V4
Flash" + "Low" pill; pick High → `config.get reasoning` on the live
session returns high; a `reasoning:false` cap unmounts the pill; the
catalog row submenu still writes through and the pill mirrors it.
Credit: the dedicated-pill direction was proposed independently in
composer selector on current main with the shared-controller shape.
Two CI reds from the previous commits.
benchmark_browser_eval.py moved from scripts/ (exempt) to evals/ and its
bare shutil.which("npx") tripped test_no_unreviewed_bare_managed_runtime_
lookups. evals/ are standalone user-invoked benchmark programs, the same
class as scripts/ and skills/, and three other eval files already call
which() the same way; the guard just never saw them because the harness
that carried them lived under scripts/. Exempt the directory.
list_os_marked_tests.py used Path.rglob, which raises FileNotFoundError
when a __pycache__ directory disappears mid-scan (a sibling job in the
same workspace). The managed-runtime guard already switched to os.walk
for the identical TOCTOU; do the same here. Same output, sorted.
docs/ was not the documentation site; it was a grab bag of long-form
design notes, wire contracts and observability guides that landed with
feature PRs because their authors needed somewhere to put them. Root
AGENTS.md already says long-form dev docs live in
website/docs/developer-guide/; this moves the 14 living documents there
(or to the matching user-guide section) so they are published, searchable
and linked from the sidebar instead of being found by grep only.
Developer guide: micro-compaction, gateway-session-lifecycle (was
session-lifecycle), state-db-recovery, multiplexing-gateway,
chronos-managed-cron-contract, relay-connector-contract, observer-hooks
(was observability/README), gateway-monitoring (observability/monitoring),
relay-shared-metrics, middleware, streaming-tts, billing-lifecycle.
User guide: egress/network-isolation (was security/network-egress-
isolation), features/kanban-multi-gateway (was kanban/multi-gateway).
Each page got title/description frontmatter and a sidebar entry; repo-
relative links became site links or GitHub blob URLs; two MDX brace
hazards escaped. Every in-tree pointer (module docstrings, config
comments, the relay conformance test's Path, the monitoring-doc test,
gateway-internals, cron-internals, kanban docs, .dockerignore, AGENTS.md)
now names the new location. `docusaurus build` passes with no unresolved
links on the moved pages.
scripts/ is for repo tooling (tests runner, release, installers, CI
checks). The tool-search live tests, the toolperf A/B eval and the browser
eval benchmark are offline benchmarks that spend model budget, which is
exactly what evals/ holds; evals/browser_use already cited
scripts/toolperf_abeval as "the same pattern".
- scripts/tool_search_livetest*.py + analyze_livetest.py + LIVETEST_README
-> evals/tool_search/ (README.md); repo-root sys.path hop adjusted for
the extra directory level; gitignore now covers evals/tool_search/out*/
- scripts/toolperf_abeval/ -> evals/toolperf_abeval/
- scripts/benchmark_browser_eval.py -> evals/browser_use/
Nothing in the tree reads any of these; they landed with feature PRs and
were never routed to their proper home.
- mcp-research-data/: 224K of July tool-search bench result rows. The
harnesses (scripts/tool_search_livetest_ue*.py) write their output to a
gitignored dir; the rows were committed by hand once and the headline
numbers already live in the bench commit messages.
- datagen-config-examples/: Feb 2026 RL datagen configs for a
WebResearchEnv that no longer exists; the yaml paths point at a
configs/ dir that was never created.
- docs/: ADR log with one entry, an implemented cron-doctor spec, an RCA
for a resolved bug, two RFCs whose work shipped, an unimplemented
profile-builder proposal, the kanban dialog mock HTML and the kanban v1
spec PDF. profile-routing.md duplicated the profile_routes section of
website/docs/user-guide/multi-profile-gateways.md.
Kanban docs and the `hermes kanban` parser description pointed readers at
the PDF; those now point at the user guide (the patterns table it was
citing is on that same page).
_PY_SKIP includes apps/, so a change to apps/shared/src/gateway-events.json
(or apps/desktop/src/lib/desktop-slash-registry.json) alone classified as
python:false and tests/tui_gateway/test_gateway_event_contract.py — the
only side that checks emitters against the JSON — never ran. "Either side
drifting turns both red" was true locally and false in CI for that
direction. A table of cross-language contract files now forces python:true
alongside frontend; two classifier rows pin it (they fail without the
allowlist).
Re-verified against the tui_gateway emitters:
- SubagentEventPayload.cost_usd / .iteration: not in
tool_progress.py::_SUBAGENT_FIELDS, never emitted → removed; the TUI's
turnController no longer copies them (its SubagentProgress keeps the
fields for spawn-history persistence).
- SubagentEventPayload.child_session_id: emitted (in _SUBAGENT_FIELDS, read
by agent_callbacks.py::_mirror_subagent_to_child) but untyped → added.
- ToolCompletePayload.error: _on_tool_complete never sets it → removed;
the TUI's completeTool drops its dead `error` parameter and renders the
trail line as non-error (which is what it always did on the wire).
- ToolStartPayload.todos: not on the wire either, but the TUI handler and
its fixtures exercise recordTodos from tool.start; kept with a comment
saying so rather than churning the handler.
- MessageCompletePayload.failure_reason: prompt_turn.py passes
result.get("failure_reason") through → `string | null`.
handleFrame guarded JSON.parse but then read `frame.id` on whatever came
back, so a stdout line of `null`/`42`/`"str"` threw a TypeError out of the
readline handler — an uncaughtException in the Ink process, where main's
TUI had caught and logged it. Non-object frames now return null (the owner
logs a protocol error, as for non-JSON).
The shared heartbeat counted ANY inbound frame as liveness, silently
dropping the TUI's original contract (fail on an unanswered gateway.ping):
a backend whose request loop is wedged but still streams deltas never
tripped the deadline. `heartbeatLiveness` now selects the contract:
'response' (default, TUI) — only a pong or a response to our own request
resets the deadline; 'any-inbound' — the desktop/web WebSocket client's
original behaviour, which JsonRpcGatewayClient passes explicitly so that
surface is unchanged. The dead 'error' branch comment in connect()'s
onClose is corrected to describe the onSocketClose-intercept case it
actually serves.
Tests: it.each over 'null'/'42'/'"str"'/'true' asserts no throw and null;
'response' mode: pongs and request responses keep it alive, streaming
deltas with unanswered pings fire onHeartbeatFailure. Sabotage (remove the
object check + count any inbound): 5 tests fail with the original TypeError.
Four backoff formulas (ui-tui 1000/30s, desktop 300/15s jittered, web events
1000/30s, web PTY inline 250/3s cap 5 — untested) collapse into
apps/shared/src/reconnect-backoff.ts::reconnectBackoffDelayMs(attempt,
{baseDelayMs, capMs, jitter}). Every caller keeps its own parameters
(table in the PR body); the PTY ladder gains a test.
web/src/components/ChatSidebar.tsx hand-rolled a third WebSocket frame
dispatcher (`new WebSocket` + JSON.parse + `frame.method === "event"` switch
+ a private RpcEnvelope re-declaring shared JsonRpcFrame) for /api/events.
That socket now goes through EventsFeedClient, a notification-only subclass
of the shared JsonRpcGatewayClient (replay off, heartbeat off, connect
timeout covering ticket minting); the effect keeps only the retry ladder and
the banner. Both sidebar clients are now created once per component instead
of per `version` bump, so the shared client's seq watermarks survive a drop
and its `session.events.since` gap replay can actually fire for web
(previously the client was rebuilt on every reconnect and replay never ran).
Behavior change: web sidecar reconnects reuse the same JsonRpcGatewayClient
(gap replay now runs); the events feed's handshake `error`+`close` pair is one
`closed` transition (one retry timer, as before); no parameter of any
backoff ladder changed.
Two independent JSON-RPC client cores existed for one backend: apps/shared's
JsonRpcGatewayClient (desktop, web) and ui-tui/src/gatewayClient.ts, which
re-implemented request ids, the pending map with timeouts, response->error
mapping, event decoding and the gateway.ping heartbeat (~200 LOC, drifted).
Split the transport-agnostic half out of the shared client into
JsonRpcRequestChannel (apps/shared/src/json-rpc-channel.ts): the owner binds a
JsonRpcTransport { send(text) } per connection generation and feeds inbound
text through handleFrame(). JsonRpcGatewayClient keeps only the WebSocket
lifecycle, seq replay and the typed event hub on top of it; the Ink TUI keeps
only its two transports (spawned child stdio, attached socket) and its
mount-order event buffering, and delegates everything else.
Behavior change:
- TUI RPC errors now carry the JSON-RPC `code` / `data` (JsonRpcGatewayError)
instead of a bare Error(message); the TUI's timeout text is now the shared
"request timed out after Ns: <method>" (was "timeout: <method>", matched by
no caller) and callers may pass a per-call timeout.
- TUI heartbeat liveness counts any inbound frame (shared semantics) rather
than tracking one in-flight ping id; the interval/deadline are unchanged
and pings no longer carry the unread `last_activity_ms` param.
- Desktop isMissingRpcMethod reads the -32601 code first and only regexes the
message for code-less (IPC-flattened) errors, so a tool result that merely
mentions "unknown method" no longer reads as a capability verdict.
- Shared connect() now settles on a `close` during the handshake (auth-gate
4401/4403) instead of waiting out the 15s connect timeout, and
invalidate()/close() drop the socket generation before calling close() so a
synchronous close event cannot run the closed-path twice.
Three TypeScript clients each declared their own copy of the tui_gateway wire
types and had drifted apart: apps/shared had a partial GatewayEventName union
with a `(string & {})` escape hatch, ui-tui/gatewayTypes.ts a 150-line
discriminated union, and apps/desktop an `RpcEvent<T>` that was field-for-field
the shared GatewayEvent with `type: string`. None matched the emitter:
message.complete lacked warning/status/error/recoverable/error_surface,
tool.start/tool.complete lacked args/result, SessionResumeResponse lacked
session_key/messages_omitted/hydrating/auto_continue/todo_state, three
different ModelOptionProvider shapes disagreed on fields, and all three unions
handled a `tool.progress` event that no Python emitter has ever produced.
Now:
* `apps/shared/src/gateway-events.ts` is the single home: payload interfaces
typed from the Python emitters (file::symbol cited per interface),
`BackendGatewayEventMap` (89 backend names) + `ClientLocalGatewayEventMap`
(5 TUI-synthetic transport events, clearly marked, excluded from the
contract) merged into `GatewayEventMap`; `GatewayEvent<K>` is discriminated
on `type` with `seq` typed. RPC shapes shared by 2+ surfaces live beside it
(ModelOptionProvider = union of every field hermes_cli/inventory.py sets,
incl. pricing_pending/free_tier_pending; SessionResumeResponse<Info>;
SessionListItem with resolved_id; Usage).
* `JsonRpcGatewayClient.on<K>` is keyed by event name; the gateway.ready
heartbeat/replay_epoch and per-frame `seq` reads are typed instead of cast.
* ui-tui and apps/desktop import the shared names; their local duplicates are
deleted (no re-export shims — importers are repointed; the desktop plugin
SDK barrel keeps its public `RpcEvent` name as an alias of GatewayEvent).
web/src repoints ModelOptionProvider/ModelOptionsResponse.
* `tool.progress` handling is removed from the TUI handler/turnController,
desktop event sets/tools handler, shared union, tests, and two docs
(`grep '"tool.progress"' tui_gateway/` = 0 hits; the `display.tool_progress`
config mode is unrelated and untouched).
* `message.complete.warning` (history-commit note from
prompt_turn.py::_complete_turn_payload) is typed and surfaced on both
surfaces through their existing notice paths (TUI pushActivity 'warn',
desktop notify kind 'warning').
Contract: `apps/shared/src/gateway-events.json` is the sorted list of
backend-emitted names. `tests/tui_gateway/test_gateway_event_contract.py`
collects names from the Python emitter side (emit-helper literals, the
`.request → .expire` table, change-watcher table, child delta mirror,
subagent relay, desktop_ui tool emitters, gateway.ready/setup.ready/
browser-controller frames) and asserts emitted == JSON in both directions.
`apps/shared/src/gateway-events.test.ts` asserts BACKEND_EVENT_NAMES (which
the map type is `satisfies`-checked against) == JSON. Sabotage-verified: a
fake JSON name fails both tests; a fake TS name fails tsc + vitest; a fake
Python `_emit("...")` fails pytest.
dingtalk _extra_get, mattermost _extra_or_env and slack _extra_or_env_flag/_channel_set fell
through to env only on None, so `allowed_channels: ""` / `free_response_channels: ""` meant
"no whitelist" rather than "use the env CSV". The shared reader treated blank as unset and
silently widened those to the env value. New `blank_is_unset=False` knob restores the old
semantics at those seven call sites; the default (blank = unset) stays for the readers whose
old body was `extra.get(k) or env`.
The mixin routes DM intake through _is_dm_allowed, and the Cloud override was a bare
wa_id set lookup with no "*" handling, so allow_from={"*"} (documented for
WHATSAPP_ALLOWED_USERS, inherited by Cloud) went from admitting intake on main to
denying it. Cloud now overrides _entry_matches instead: bare-wa_id membership, then
the shared WhatsApp matcher ("*" + aliases) — one predicate for strict DM auth, DM
intake and groups. whatsapp_cloud joins the parity matrix; a new wildcard row covers
every wildcard host on all three paths (sabotage: revert -> [whatsapp_cloud] fails).
WeComAdapter mixed in OwnAccessPolicyMixin without ALLOW_ALL_ENV_PREFIX, so
_allow_all_env_names() read "_ALLOW_ALL_USERS" and every open-DM WeCom deployment
(setup still writes WECOM_ALLOW_ALL_USERS) silently denied all DMs.
- WeComAdapter.ALLOW_ALL_ENV_PREFIX = "WECOM"
- OwnAccessPolicyMixin.__init_subclass__ raises TypeError on an empty prefix so the
omission cannot ship again (every other host already sets one).
- Parity test now runs a third matrix row that sets each host's own
<PREFIX>_ALLOW_ALL_USERS; the GATEWAY-only row is why this slipped through.
Sabotage: prefix removed -> [platform] row fails even with the guard reverted.
Scoped secrets — `gateway.platforms._shared.get_scoped_secret` is the single implementation of
the "scope authoritative, unscoped default-profile falls back to os.environ" read:
- plugins/platforms/buzz/adapter.py::_get_scoped_secret (113 LOC, ~100 of which were one
docstring paragraph pasted 16x) -> 3-line forwarder over the canonical with
`external_fallback=True`. Its one genuine extra rung (one-shot profile-scope build so a
Bitwarden-managed key is visible to the startup gate, #95216) moves into `_shared` as that
keyword plus `_unscoped_profile_secrets`.
- weixin::_wx_secret, matrix::_startup_env_secret, the inline try/except copies in slack
(SLACK_APP_TOKEN) and telegram (TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SECRET/_URL) -> canonical.
- The "extra-first, then scoped env" reader written 11x under 6 names (weixin._extra_or_env,
bluebubbles/ntfy/photon/wecom `_setting`, dingtalk `_extra_get`, mattermost `_extra_or_env`,
slack `_extra_or_env_flag/_channel_set`, feishu closures) -> `_shared.extra_or_secret`.
- `authz_mixin._platform_gate_env` -> `_shared.platform_gate_env`; discord/telegram drop their
`_scoped_gate_env` twins; run.py / run_config_loaders.py / slack import it directly.
Boilerplate — three table-driven helpers in `_shared` replace the pasted docs template:
- `seed_extra_from_env(spec, home_env=)` replaces 8 `_env_enablement` bodies (buzz, google_chat,
irc, line, ntfy, photon, simplex, teams; raft is a one-liner and untouched).
- `apply_yaml_bridge(cfg, spec)` replaces 7 `_apply_yaml_config` bodies (buzz, dingtalk, feishu,
matrix, mattermost, slack, whatsapp); discord/telegram keep bespoke bridges (alias keys,
nested `platforms.*.extra`, generic-key exclusions). buzz and mattermost previously bypassed
`yaml_env_setter` with hand-rolled `os.environ` writes.
- `env_is_connected(*vars)` replaces 5 identical `_is_connected` (discord, homeassistant,
mattermost, slack, sms).
- 8 identity `_build_adapter` wrappers deleted; `adapter_factory=<Class>`.
Behavior change:
- buzz `_apply_yaml_config` returned None, so under multiplex a secondary Buzz profile got
neither env (correctly skipped) nor `extra` for relay_url/channels/allow_all_users/...; it now
seeds `extra` like every other hook. It also wrote reply_in_thread/reply_to_mode to the process
env even inside a secondary profile's scope (first-writer-wins leak, #80099 class); it no longer
does. BUZZ_POLL_INTERVAL is bridged through the same table.
- `home_channel.name` default when `<X>_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME` is unset is now the literal "Home" for
all plugins (irc/ntfy/buzz used the chat id; simplex/teams/photon/google_chat already used
"Home", as do the built-in platforms in gateway/config_env.py).
- weixin's non-secret tunables (send_chunk_*, rate_limit_circuit_*) now read through the scoped
reader instead of raw os.getenv — a secondary profile no longer inherits the default's values.
- `extra_or_secret` treats a blank string in extra as unset (falls to env) and an explicit False
as a real value, the strictest of the merged copies.
- slack `reaction_trigger_target` bridges via str(); `reaction_triggers` comma-joins any list-ish
value (was list/tuple/set only) — same env text for every real YAML shape.
Docs: website/docs/developer-guide/adding-platform-adapters.md (the template the copies were
pasted from) and gateway/platforms/ADDING_A_PLATFORM.md now show the helpers and the scoped
reader; gateway/AGENTS.md points at the one implementation.
Tests: tests/gateway/test_shared_platform_boilerplate.py — every plugin `_env_enablement`
reads only through the scoped getter (parametrized over the 8 plugins, spy on the seam, raw
`os.getenv`/`get_env_value` asserted untouched); buzz bridge seeds `extra` for a secondary
profile and still bridges env for the default; one home-name rule; extra_or_secret contract;
external_fallback rung. Existing tests repointed: tests/agent/test_secret_scope_tier1_migration.py,
tests/plugins/platforms/buzz/test_buzz_unscoped_requirement_gate.py.
Fourteen platform plugins hand-rolled the "already configured? Reconfigure? [y/N]"
gate at the top of interactive_setup (env check + info line + prompt_yes_no(..., False)),
with drifting wording ("X: already configured" vs "X is already configured." vs
"already enabled") and, for LINE and SimpleX, raw input() loops with their own
EOF/KeyboardInterrupt handling and no gate at all. Fixes to the gate (non-interactive
handling, wording, default) therefore reached only the core Telegram/BlueBubbles/webhook
wizards.
- hermes_cli/setup_platforms.py: `_declines_reconfigure` becomes the public
`declines_reconfigure(label, question, *env_vars)` (any-of env check, so Matrix's
token-or-password gate fits); `_save_prompted` becomes `save_prompted` alongside it.
No alias kept; the three core callers are updated.
- buzz, dingtalk, discord, feishu, google_chat, irc, matrix, mattermost, raft, slack,
teams, wecom: the hand-rolled gate is replaced by one `declines_reconfigure(...)` call;
post-decline extras (Discord allowlist nudge, Slack manifest refresh, Raft "Keeping"
line) stay local and unchanged.
- line, simplex: the raw input() loops move onto hermes_cli.cli_output.prompt (masked
for secrets, "" on Ctrl-C/EOF) and gain the shared gate on their primary env var.
Behavior change: the gate's info line is now uniformly "<Label>: already configured"
(DingTalk/Feishu/WeCom lose the trailing period + inline ID; Buzz/IRC/Google Chat/Raft/
Teams no longer echo the current value in that line). Feishu and WeCom now gate on the
app/bot ID alone instead of ID AND secret. LINE and SimpleX gain a "Reconfigure?" [y/N]
prompt when already configured; their prompts now honour HERMES_NONINTERACTIVE and print
via the CLI helpers instead of bare print(). Prompt defaults (No) are unchanged everywhere.
Not touched: WhatsApp's gate keys on WHATSAPP_ENABLED being truthy (a "false" value must
not count as configured), which the shared any-set gate cannot express — left hand-rolled.
Test: tests/plugins/platforms/test_interactive_setup_reconfigure_gate.py parametrized over
the 14 wizards — with the primary env var set and the user declining, each wizard must have
called declines_reconfigure with that var and returned without prompting or saving.
Sabotage: reverting mattermost's gate fails that row.
Six adapters defined their own `_cancel_task` and nine more inlined the same
cancel + suppress(CancelledError) + await block; five kept a hand-rolled TTL-dict
`_is_duplicate` next to the existing `helpers.MessageDeduplicator`; three carried a
`_bounded_put`. Each copy fixed the same bugs on its own schedule (self-cancel deadlock,
done-task re-await, eviction under load).
- `helpers.cancel_task`: None/done no-op, never awaits the current task, swallows the
task's own exception at teardown. Replaces qqbot/signal/yuanbao/buzz/photon/simplex
definitions and the inline copies in weixin, discord, email, irc, line, mattermost,
whatsapp and telegram.
- `helpers.MessageDeduplicator` replaces `_is_duplicate` in qqbot, ntfy, photon,
wecom_callback and LINE's `_MessageDeduplicator`; every site keeps its own
max_size/TTL (qqbot and ntfy 1000/300s, photon 4000/48h, wecom_callback 2000/300s,
LINE 1000/no TTL).
- `helpers.bounded_put` replaces photon/wecom/whatsapp_cloud copies; a re-put now
refreshes the key to the newest slot at every site.
- telegram gmail-triage scripts resolve under `get_hermes_home()` instead of a hard
`~/.hermes`, so profiles with HERMES_HOME set find them.
Not changed: `get_chat_info` stays `@abstractmethod` because
tests/gateway/test_relay_capability_surface.py locks the abstract set to exactly
{connect, disconnect, send, get_chat_info} as a cross-repo contract, so the ~17 no-op
overrides remain.
Behavior change: whatsapp_cloud `_bounded_put` was a pure FIFO (no refresh on re-put);
it now refreshes like the other two sites. Task cancellation at the migrated sites
swallows a task's terminal exception where a few copies previously only suppressed
CancelledError (all are shutdown/disconnect paths).
Matrix, WhatsApp Cloud and the TTS tool each ran their own ffmpeg argv for the same
speech-tuned libopus encode; they predate the shared helper and never migrated, so the
codec flags, timeout handling and error reporting drifted (matrix 48k/30s, whatsapp_cloud
async subprocess with no timeout and no `-ac 1`, tts an in-place sidecar repair).
`transcode_to_ogg_opus` gains `timeout=` and `output_path=` (sibling-file and in-place
writes go through a `.tmp.ogg` sidecar so a failed encode never truncates the source).
Deleted: matrix `_matrix_transcode_voice_to_ogg`, tts `_ffmpeg_transcode_to_opus`;
whatsapp_cloud `_convert_to_opus` keeps only its warn-once ffmpeg install hint and calls
the helper via `asyncio.to_thread`. Matrix and tts keep their 48k bitrate.
Behavior change: whatsapp_cloud transcodes now use mono (`-ac 1`), `-compression_level 10`
and a 60s timeout like every other voice bubble; a failed encode logs at WARNING for all
three sites (matrix previously DEBUG).
Weixin, WeCom, QQBot, WhatsApp (common + cloud) and Yuanbao's AccessPolicy each carried
their own `_open_dm_opted_in` / `_is_dm_allowed` / `_is_dm_intake_allowed` /
`_is_group_allowed`, differing only in the platform prefix of the allow-all env var and in
small drifts. The same "allow-all must be scoped / fail closed" fix has landed on this trio
at least four times; a shared rule means it lands once.
gateway/platforms/access_policy_mixin.py::OwnAccessPolicyMixin owns the predicates,
reads every env name through the scoped `get_scoped_secret` and exposes two hooks:
`_entry_matches` (platform allowlist matching) and `_live_dm_allow_from` (env-seeded
lists re-read live). `ALLOW_ALL_ENV_PREFIX` is the only per-adapter datum.
Retained overrides (behavior genuinely differs):
- whatsapp_cloud `_allow_all_env_names` adds WHATSAPP_CLOUD_ALLOW_ALL_USERS;
`_is_dm_allowed` keeps its bare-wa_id normalisation.
- whatsapp_common `_entry_matches` -> phone/LID alias matching; `_live_dm_allow_from`.
- wecom `_is_group_allowed(chat_id, sender_id)` adds the per-group sender allowlist on
top of the shared chat-level rule; `_entry_matches` strips `wecom:user:` prefixes.
- qqbot `_entry_matches` (case-insensitive, `*`).
- yuanbao `AccessPolicy.is_group_allowed`: `open` groups still require the allow-all
opt-in (no runner-side mention gate), so it wraps the shared rule.
Behavior change: Weixin `_is_dm_intake_allowed` now denies a blank/whitespace principal
(the other four already did; safe variant chosen). Weixin's inline group gate now goes
through `_is_group_allowed` with identical verdicts.
Photon forked BasePlatformAdapter._send_with_retry before three fixes landed there: the server's
retry_after is honoured over exponential backoff, a long server penalty (> 60s) returns a typed
failure instead of sleeping inline (#91969), and an exhausted rate-limited send no longer posts the
failure notice inside the flood penalty. The fork got none of them. Photon's two genuine differences
are now hooks on the base — `_send_retry_is_final(result)` (structured auth/target refusals are
returned as-is, no retry, no plain-text resend) and `_send_plain_fallback(...)` (no Markdown banner,
richlink() bypassed) — and the 42-line fork is deleted.
Slack's `_retry_after_from_exc` and Discord's `_extract_discord_retry_after` parsed the header by
hand and only understood the numeric form; both now call agent.retry_utils.parse_retry_after_seconds
(numeric or HTTP-date, either header casing). Discord keeps its `retry_after` attribute path, the
`X-RateLimit-Reset-After` fallback and the 1s floor.
Behavior change: Photon retries now add up to 1s of jitter to the backoff and honour a server
retry_after; Slack/Discord recognise an HTTP-date Retry-After they previously ignored.
20 `plugins/platforms/*/adapter.py::_standalone_send` paths (the out-of-process cron /
send_message delivery) built `{"error": f"... {e}"}` by hand — 83 literals. The exception text
of an httpx/aiohttp failure can carry the Authorization header, a signed URL or a response body
with the token in it, and that string became the tool result the model reads. Only sms went
through the redacting `tools.send_message_senders._error`; discord kept a private regex that
only knew `Authorization: Bot`.
`gateway.platforms._shared.send_error(message)` wraps that helper (agent.redact +
URL-secret scrub) and every standalone literal now goes through it, including the three
envelopes that carry extra keys (discord warnings, photon error_class/retryable, whatsapp's
`(None, err)` tuple). The sms and discord local wrappers are deleted. Telegram already
delegated to the core sender and is untouched.
Behavior change (security): vendor exception text in standalone-send failures is redacted
before reaching the model.
Nine surfaces (feishu, teams, slack, telegram, whatsapp_cloud, qqbot, matrix, discord, relay)
each re-derived the approval choice set — [Allow Once]; session + always unless smart-denied;
[Deny] — and four of them (discord, slack, teams, whatsapp_cloud) never adopted
base._format_exec_approval, so header/reason/smart-deny wording and truncation budgets drifted
per adapter. Three separate commits had to touch 5–9 adapters for one semantic fix.
BasePlatformAdapter.send_exec_approval now builds an ExecApprovalPrompt (shared text via
_format_exec_approval, shared `(label, choice, style)` rows via _exec_approval_actions) and
hands it to the `_send_exec_approval_prompt` hook. Each adapter keeps only its widget mapping
(~10–20 LOC); platform wording stays via the existing `_EA_*` class attrs, and a new
`_exec_approval_cmd_budget` hook lets Slack/Discord budget the command against their hard
message caps (3000-char section / 2000-char message) instead of computing it inline.
`_EA_REASON_BUDGET` covers Slack's 500 / Discord's 300 reason caps.
The runner used to detect button support by `hasattr(type(adapter), "send_exec_approval")`;
that is now true for every adapter, so `_renders_exec_approval_buttons` asks
`supports_exec_approval_buttons()` (hook overridden?) and keeps the duck-typed check for
non-BasePlatformAdapter classes.
Visible text changes (button semantics unchanged everywhere):
- Discord: the smart-deny line now follows the reason (was inside the header before the
fence); the truncation marker is "..." not "\n... [truncated]".
- Slack: smart-deny line follows the reason instead of the header.
- Teams: unchanged (same 2000-char preview, same smart-deny block).
- WhatsApp Cloud: identical text; body still capped at 1024.
- QQBot/relay: unchanged.
Eight adapters (discord, telegram, wecom, matrix, whatsapp, simplex, feishu, weixin) each kept a
copy of the delayed text-batch flush that base._enqueue_text_event schedules. Two correctness
fixes had landed in single copies only: Discord's asyncio.shield around the dispatch (#12444 —
a late chunk cancelling the flush task aborted the in-flight agent turn) and WeCom/Weixin's
synchronous task-identity check before the pop (a superseded task waking late popped the event
and the successor found nothing). The other adapters carried both bugs latent.
The base now owns `_flush_text_batch` with both fixes, plus the `_pending_text_batches` /
`_pending_text_batch_tasks` dicts and `_SPLIT_THRESHOLD` / delay attrs (defaults; adapters set
their own). Platform policy goes through three small hooks instead of a copied body:
`_text_batch_delay_for(pending)` (Telegram's fast/short tiers, WeCom's attachment-only wait),
`_pop_text_batch(key)` (Feishu's side count table) and `_dispatch_text_batch(event)` (Feishu's
per-chat lock). Telegram keeps its `_flush_buffered` body because its contract differs on
purpose — a cancel after the pop must hold-and-re-raise so teardown can stop a flush — and gains
the identity check there. Matrix's `_split_threshold` is renamed to the shared `_SPLIT_THRESHOLD`;
SimpleX exposes its single delay through the shared attr names.
`helpers.TextBatchAggregator` (zero users) sits inside the revert-scheduled PLUGIN-COMPAT block
and is left for that revert.
gateway.status.acquire_scoped_lock returns (acquired, existing_record). The irc, line and
buzz adapters tested `if not acquire_scoped_lock(...)`, and a non-empty tuple is always
truthy, so two profiles could drive one IRC nick / LINE channel / Buzz identity in
parallel. Route the three through BasePlatformAdapter._acquire_platform_lock (the seam
the other 8 adapters use), which unpacks the tuple, names the owning profile + PID in the
fatal error and honours the `--replace` takeover. Release goes through
_release_platform_lock; the private _lock_key bookkeeping is gone.
Error code changes from `lock_conflict` to `{scope}_lock` — both families are already
matched by gateway.restart.is_global_startup_conflict.
The buzz test mocked acquire_scoped_lock as a bare False, which masked the bug; it now
returns the real (False, record) contract, and irc/line gain the same conflict test.
model_selection_config_updates cleared model.api_key/api only when the target
was not a custom provider, so custom:legacy-box -> custom:other-box (or the
same 'custom' provider on a different base_url) carried endpoint A's inline
secret to endpoint B. The old dashboard writer cleared on any provider change.
The inline key now survives only a same-route re-pick (same provider AND same
normalized base_url); an explicitly submitted key is re-added by the dashboard
after this shape is applied, as before.
_write_profile_model validated under the NEW profile's HERMES_HOME. A just-created
profile has no providers:, no .env and no auth, so every non-env provider the
create dialog offered (anthropic, ollama, providers:-keyed custom) came back
'Unknown provider' / 'Could not resolve credentials' and create returned a
silent model_set: false. The picker read THIS dashboard's catalog, so validation
now runs scoped to the process home (validate_in) while the write still lands in
the new profile. PUT /api/profiles/{name}/model keeps validating in the target
profile (it is an existing, credentialed home). A real rejection now surfaces as
model_error in the create response instead of a log line.
Canonicalising _is_backend_argv onto _hermes_holder_subcommand dropped the
'-m hermes_cli.main' entry-shape discriminator the old predicate had. That
widened _orphaned_desktop_backend_pids to tree-kill a standalone hermes.exe
serve / hermes dashboard whose console parent died. The Desktop's only spawn
shape is -m hermes_cli.main (apps/desktop/electron/main.ts), so _is_backend_argv
now forwards to _looks_like_desktop_control_plane — the same canonical-subcommand
AND entry-shape predicate — instead of a second copy. Test matrix gains a
'Desktop backend?' column with plain hermes serve / hermes.exe dashboard rows.
set_session_model and the /model slash command called switch_model synchronously
on the loop thread; it does ~10 s of network I/O on a cold cache (models.dev,
custom-endpoint probes), stalling every ACP session in the process. Same
asyncio.to_thread the gateway uses for the same call.
_denormalize_config_from_web ran the new switch_model validation inside the
pre-existing 'except Exception: pass' disk-read fallback. Any rejection
(offline models.dev, no OpenRouter key, unlisted model) left config['model'] a
flat string, and PUT /api/config's deep-merge wrote that string over the on-disk
model: dict, destroying provider/base_url/api_mode/context_length/model_slots.
Only the load_config() read keeps its fallback; validation propagates as the
HTTPException(400) the caller's http_failure passes through. Invariant test PUTs
a rejected model against a real config.yaml and asserts 400 + byte-identical file.
One `/model --global` produced four config.yaml shapes. CLI wrote
default/provider/base_url/api_mode and cleared the context pin on a route
change; the gateway rewrote the whole `model:` block (whole-file save_config)
and only set api_mode for `custom`; the TUI wrote three keys and never
touched api_mode, so a switch off an Anthropic-wire endpoint left a stale
`api_mode: anthropic_messages` in config; the dashboard main slot had its own
switched-provider logic, wrote `base_url: ""` and always dropped
context_length. ACP `session/set_model` and `POST /api/model/set` accepted
any model string (parse_model_input + detect_provider_for_model) so a model
no catalog knows, or a provider with no credentials, was handed to the
session / persisted and only failed at inference time.
Canonical: `hermes_cli.model_switch.model_selection_config_updates` (the
shape) + `persist_model_selection(result, config_path=None)` (targeted
per-key `atomic_roundtrip_yaml_update` writes, so sibling
`model_slots`/`model_fallback` keys survive; explicit path for the
multiplexed gateway's profile config) + `apply_model_selection` (same shape
applied to an in-memory `model:` dict for callers that save a whole
document). `atomic_roundtrip_yaml_update(value=None)` now REMOVES the key
instead of writing `key: null`, so per-key and whole-document writers land
the same file. Shape = CLI/gateway semantics: default, provider, base_url
(cleared when the target has none), api_mode (cleared when unresolved),
context_length cleared only when `should_clear_context_pin` says the route
identity changed, inline api_key/api cleared for non-custom targets.
Sites -> canonical:
hermes_cli/cli_model_switch_mixin.py::_persist_global_switch -> deleted; _commit_model_switch calls persist_model_selection
hermes_cli/cli_model_switch_mixin.py::_clear_persisted_context_for_model_switch -> deleted (folded into the shape)
gateway/slash_commands_model.py::_persist_model_switch_to_config -> to_thread forwarder: persist_model_selection(result, ctx.config_path)
tui_gateway/model_switch.py::_persist_model_switch -> deleted; _apply_model_switch calls persist_model_selection
hermes_cli/web_server_config.py::_apply_main_model_assignment -> apply_model_selection(result) (+ explicit custom api_key)
hermes_cli/web_server_config.py::_validated_main_model_selection -> NEW: switch_model(--provider) gate; rejection -> HTTP 400
hermes_cli/web_routers/{models,profiles,config_env}.py main-slot paths -> through _validated_main_model_selection
acp_adapter/server.py::_resolve_model_selection -> deleted; _switch_model calls switch_model (provider:model -> --provider), rejection -> ValueError
Behavior changes: TUI --global now writes/clears model.api_mode and clears a
route-changed context pin; gateway --global no longer rewrites the whole
model block (sibling keys survive) and clears api_mode for every target;
dashboard main slot / profile-create model / custom-endpoint activate now
reject unknown/uncredentialed/unlisted models (HTTP 400) and persist the
resolved base_url/api_mode instead of `base_url: ""`; ACP rejects the same
(ValueError surfaced by the command/protocol handler). Gateway persist runs
on a worker thread against the routed profile's config_path (multiplex-safe).
Cleared keys are removed from config.yaml rather than left as `null`. ACP
still never persists.
Kept `_normalize_main_model_assignment`: switch_model rejects a vendor name
posing as a provider (`moonshotai` -> "Unknown provider"), so the
vendor->aggregator repair is not a duplicate; E2E verified both branches.
No config migration: readers already coalesce `base_url: ""` to absent
(`_config_base_url_for_provider`) and gate api_mode on provider match
(`_provider_supports_explicit_api_mode`), so no stale-shape reader bug.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_model_persist_one_shape.py (four surfaces land
one block; same-route re-pick keeps the pin), tests/acp_adapter/
test_acp_dashboard_model_switch_validation.py (rejection + explicit
provider prefix). Replaces test_acp_set_model_explicit_provider.py and the
two TUI-only persist tests; tests that intercepted the old per-surface seams
(`cli.save_config_value`, `load_config_readonly`, `tui_gateway.server.
_persist_model_switch`) now intercept the canonical seam. Each fix
sabotage-verified red.
computer_use kept its own approval decision: two module dicts
(_session_auto_approve / _always_allow) mirroring tools.approval's
session store and _persist_choice, a private verdict vocabulary
(approve_once/approve_session/always_approve) that hermes_cli mapped
back to once/session/always, and — the real problem — `if
_approval_callback is None: return None`. Only the interactive CLI ever
installed that callback, so every other host (gateway turns, cron,
api_server, tui_gateway, ACP) ran destructive desktop input with no
approval at all, ignoring cron_mode / unattended_mode / the permanent
allowlist, and "always" grants were invisible to `is_approved`,
`clear_session` and the messaging-platform approval buttons.
_request_approval now calls tools.approval._run_approval_gate with
pattern_key `cua:<action>:<background|foreground>` (the old scope shape,
so a background grant still never covers the visible foreground variant)
and fail_closed_when_no_human=True, the same posture as
request_tool_approval / the SSH-config write gate. The private dicts,
their release/atexit clearing, the verdict mapping in
hermes_cli/cli_modal_mixin.py and the extra callback install in cli.py
are deleted: the CLI's terminal_tool callback answers computer_use
prompts like any other tool. set_approval_callback stays as an optional
explicit-callback hook with the shared callback contract
(cb(command, description, **kw) -> once|session|always|deny|timeout);
no in-tree host uses it.
Behavior change:
- No approval callback and no gateway (cron, api_server/webhook,
headless -q, plain library use): destructive actions are now REFUSED
with a BLOCKED error and never reach the backend. Previously they
silently ran. cron honors approvals.cron_mode, unattended platforms
approvals.unattended_mode, -q approvals.single_query_mode.
- --yolo / gateway /yolo / approvals.mode: off still allow (unchanged).
- Gateway sessions (Telegram/Discord/Slack/...) now get a real pending
approval with once/session/always buttons instead of default-allow.
- session/always grants live in tools.approval's store; "always" is one
command_allowlist entry (`cua:click:background`) and is scoped to that
action+mode — the old blanket "always_approve unlocks everything for
the session" no longer exists.
- Denial wording is the shared gate's ("BLOCKED: User denied ...",
"BLOCKED: Action timed out ..."); the error JSON keeps `action`.
Tests: tests/tools/test_computer_use_approval_isolation.py
::test_no_callback_refuses_unless_yolo (blocked + no backend call, then
yolo executes) and ::test_always_grant_lands_in_the_shared_store
(is_approved sees the cua:<action>:<mode> key; second call served from
the store). Sabotage: restoring the `callback is None -> allow`
short-circuit fails the first; swapping the shared gate for a private
grant set fails the second plus the three delivery-ladder scope tests.
tests/tools/conftest.py gains `grant_computer_use_approvals` for
dispatch tests that only care about routing.
The three /status renderers (hermes_cli/cli_session_mixin.py::_show_session_status,
gateway/slash_commands_status.py::_handle_status_command, tui_gateway/methods_session.py
session.status) each hand-built Session ID / Path / Title / Model (provider) / Created /
Last Activity / Tokens / Agent Running with their own getattr(agent, "model") fallback
chain, their own updated_at/last_updated_at/last_activity_at scan and their own timestamp
format. A fix to one (a new last-activity column, a placeholder change) silently missed the
other two.
hermes_cli/status_report.py::build_status_fields now derives the common facts once and
returns them as structured, display-ready data; status_lines() renders the English
"Label: value" form for the CLI and TUI. The gateway keeps translating through its
existing t("gateway.status.*") catalog keys (no locale change); the CLI keeps reasoning /
approvals / context, the gateway keeps free-tier / context / queue depth / Matrix scope,
the TUI keeps its Project line. tui_gateway/methods_session.py::_status_dt and the
CLI's inline updated_at loop are gone; cli_session_mixin._timestamp_or stays for its
remaining history-timestamp caller.
Behavior change: none intended for populated sessions. Unified edge cases: a
SessionDB row with an unparseable started_at now falls back to now() on the TUI as it
already did on the CLI, and the TUI's fallback on a bad updated_at is the created stamp on
both surfaces.
Test: tests/hermes_cli/test_status_report_contract.py drives the three real renderers with
one session (distinctive model, provider, title, stamps, token count) and asserts each
output carries every common value. Sabotage-verified: builder dropping tokens -> red;
TUI hand-formatting the model line -> red; restored -> green.
Nine f-string sites minted `YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS_<hex>` independently with the hex width already
drifted (6 on CLI/TUI/agent/import, 8 in the gateway store, 12 in portability imports).
hermes_cli/session_lost_and_found.py classifies schema-less salvage rows by that shape, so a
site drifting the prefix would silently change recovery. hermes_state_ids.new_session_id(now,
hex_len=) is now the only writer and owns SESSION_ID_PATTERN; stdlib-only so agent/, cli.py and
gateway/ can import it without the SessionDB graph.
Widths are kept per site on purpose: the Desktop's session-id candidate regex is pinned to 6 hex
chars for interactive ids; the gateway store and portability importer keep 8/12 (more rows per
second). Not a bug, so not "fixed".
gateway/platforms/qqbot/adapter.py hard-coded `agent:main:qqbot:<scene>:<chat>` for the
update-prompt authz key, ignoring the profile namespace build_session_key applies; a secondary
bot in a multiplexed gateway got `agent:<profile>:...` keys and its clicks were rejected. The key
now comes from the one builder via BasePlatformAdapter._source_session_key.
Behavior change: QQ update-prompt clicks are authorized under the profile-namespaced key
(byte-identical `agent:main:` for the default profile).
Two kill/relaunch predicates decided identity by argv substring, the bug class root AGENTS.md
forbids: hermes_cli/dashboard_procs.py::_is_desktop_local_serve_cmdline (`"serve" not in cmd`,
on the orphan-reap KILL path) and hermes_cli/update_cmd_windows.py::_is_backend_argv
(`" serve" in argv_low`, in the very file that defines _hermes_holder_subcommand). Both now ask
the canonical token classifier; host/port are read as flag values, not substrings.
hermes_cli/profiles.py::_check_gateway_running open-coded rungs 1/3 of
gateway.status.resolve_gateway_liveness and skipped the multiplexer rung; it is now that ladder
scoped to the profile dir (pid probe keeps cleanup_stale=False so a probe for another profile
never unlinks its PID file). The gateway/status.py ladder itself is untouched.
Behavior change: `hermes kanban --preserve-cache --host 127.0.0.1 --port 0` and
`-m dashboard serve`-style argv are no longer classified as serve backends (never killed /
relaunched as one); a named profile served by the live default multiplexer now reads as
running from _check_gateway_running (previously only via the separate
_served_by_running_multiplexer OR at some call sites).
On origin/main only the TUI copied durable `_row_id`s onto the installed warm
prefix (its clients address follow-ups by row); folding the loop into
`rewind_user_turn` made CLI /undo grow `_row_id` on a resumed history that never
had it. Live CLI rows already carry ids from the flush, so for them it was a
no-op, but a resumed transcript changed shape. The loop now runs only with
`adopt_row_ids=True`, which the TUI passes; the CLI history shape is unchanged.
Review follow-up on #109610.
The 3-surface parity test only rewound plain text rows. Add one parametrized
case where every turn is a multi-part (text + image) user ask answered through
an assistant tool_call, its tool result and a final reply, asserting all three
surfaces archive the whole exchange identically (no orphaned tool row) and the
surviving image rows stay byte-identical to what was stored.
Review follow-up on #109610.
The shared core applied `has_content_to_compress(head) is False -> nothing_to_do`
on every surface, where origin/main only had it in the gateway handler. That
predicate only knows the local summarizer's window: on CLI/TUI/ACP,
`_compress_context(force=True)` still routes codex_app_server sessions to native
compaction before any local-compressor check, and `ContextCompressor.compress`
commits the phase-1 tool-result prune / blank-echo drop even when no summary
window exists -- so the gate wrongly skipped real work there. It is now an opt-in
`skip_without_window` that only the gateway passes, restoring each surface's
prior behavior.
Review follow-up on #109610.
`rewind_user_turn` called `retryable_user_text` for validation only and returned
`flatten_message_text(...)` (`"\n".join` of the parts) as `live_text`, which the
gateway used as the re-sent prompt: `[{text:"a"},{text:"b"}]` went back to the
model as `"a\nb"` where origin/main sent `"ab"`. When `require_retryable` the
outcome now carries the lossless `"".join` (wire bytes == stored bytes); the
display flattening stays for /undo prefill.
Review follow-up on #109610.
The CLI stream mixin and the gateway think filter each carried a hand-copied think-tag
tuple guarded by a "must stay in sync" comment; adding a tag meant three edits. The
scrubber (agent/think_scrubber.py) now exports THINK_OPEN_TAGS/THINK_CLOSE_TAGS and both
consumers (and strip_think_blocks' regexes) bind to them.
acp_adapter/tools.py::_TITLE_BUILDERS hand-rolled 25 per-tool titles that
agent/display.build_tool_preview already produces (with redaction). ACP titles are now
"<tool>: <preview>"; no ACP-specific overrides remained necessary.
