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).
A stale certifi CA bundle after a partial `hermes update` used to crash
the agent on the first outbound HTTPS call with a raw traceback and
trap the gateway in a retry loop.
This patch:
* Adds `agent/errors.py` with a typed `SSLConfigurationError`
* Adds `agent/ssl_guard.py` with a `verify_ca_bundle()` pre-flight
that asserts the bundle exists, is non-trivial in size, and can build
a working SSLContext. On macOS, it falls back to the system trust
store when the bundle is empty but the system store is healthy
(covers corporate proxies / MDM setups).
* Wires the guard into `run_agent.py` and `gateway/run.py` right
after the `hermes_bootstrap` import, inside a try/except so a bug
in the guard itself can never prevent startup.
* Adds a `SSL / CA Certificates` section to `hermes_cli doctor` so
users can detect the failure with one command.
* Adds unit tests covering the healthy, missing, empty, skip-env, and
macOS-fallback paths.
* Adds an RCA document describing the failure mode and the recovery
path (`pip install -e .`).
When the bundle is broken the user sees:
\u26a0\ufe0f SSL certificate bundle issue detected.
Run: pip install -e .
`HERMES_SKIP_SSL_GUARD=1` disables the check for sandboxed
environments that ship their own trust store.
