Builds on webtecnica's escape-aware _split_key_path (#84152, cherry-picked
with authorship preserved; earliest fix in the family was RelaxJonh's #80253
greedy-match approach — both behaviors now ship together):
- _greedy_literal_match: when navigating an EXISTING mapping, prefer an
existing literal key equal to the dot-join of the next N path segments
(longest match wins). Dotted model IDs are the norm, so the common
unescaped command (config set providers.p.models.grok-4.6.supports_vision
true) now hits the real key across set/get/unset instead of creating a
phantom sibling. Plain dotted paths with no dotted-key collision split
exactly as before.
- _phantom_sibling + ValueError in _set_nested: refuse to CREATE a new
intermediate mapping that would shadow an existing dotted literal sibling
(Soju06's fail-loudly suggestion on #84064); set_config_value surfaces it
as a clean CLI error with the escaped spelling to use.
- utils.py::atomic_roundtrip_yaml_update (the second split site, #91607 —
/model + TUI persistence) now uses the same escape-aware split + greedy
literal matching.
- CFG-04 empty-segment guard now splits escape-aware so escaped keys are
not misclassified.
- Tests for every repro shape in the family: #84064 provider model keys,
#80006 Matrix room IDs, #91095 dotted models under custom_providers list
index (incl. escaped creation-when-absent), #91607 model_overrides via
atomic_roundtrip_yaml_update, #99124 dotted leaf keys; plus
backward-compat coverage. Also fixed the carrier's one stale assertion
(structured-value coercion landed on main after #84152 branched) and
removed its dead _MCP_SECRETS_CONFIG fixture flagged in review.
- Docs: 'Dots inside key names' section in website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md.
Fixes#84064, fixes#80006, fixes#91095, fixes#91607, fixes#99124
Widens the salvaged cron doctor with the highest-value fleet check:
an active job whose next_run_at is parked >15min in the past is not
firing (dead ticker, downed gateway, wedged fire-claim). Also registers
doctor in the docs (cron guide + CLI reference) and resolves the salvage
onto current main alongside runs/incidents/notepad.
The grant_existing_profile key was removed in PR #98057; sweep the mode
table, opt-in section, runtime-lifecycle notes, config example, and CLI
reference that still documented it.
Sweeper review, all three points:
- Placement: no new plugins/model-providers/ directory. The Token Plan
profiles register from the existing alibaba plugin module — one module
per vendor, matching how the kimi module carries both of its endpoint
variants. Token Plan is the same vendor/service (Model Studio), same
OpenAI-compatible protocol, its own key + endpoints; splitting to a
standalone repo remains a 5-minute change if maintainers prefer.
- Runtime coverage: TestRuntimeAlibabaRegionalAndTokenPlan exercises
resolve_runtime_provider() for all four variants — provider, api_key,
api_mode, base_url — alongside the existing zai/minimax/kilocode
runtime regressions.
- Docs: providers.md, environment-variables.md, cli-commands.md updated
with the bundled variants and their env keys/base-url overrides.
On a real TTY, `hermes chat -q "…"` (and `--tui -q`) now starts a normal
interactive session with the prompt submitted literally as the first turn —
no slash-command routing, no '!' shell dispatch, no $(...) interpolation,
no file-drop rewriting — matching how other coding agents handle seeded
launches (Omarchy prompted agent terminals, basecamp/omarchy#8705).
Legacy answer-and-exit is preserved everywhere automation depends on it:
- new `hermes chat --oneshot` flag (distinct dest from top-level -z)
- -Q/--quiet machine-readable contract
- any non-TTY stdio (kanban workers, cron, pipes, A2A)
- top-level `hermes -z` unchanged
CLI: seeded prompt rides a _SeededQueryMessage sentinel through
process_loop, which skips the slash/!/file-drop dispatchers for that one
message. TUI: STARTUP_QUERY submits via a new literal path (submitLiteral)
that bypasses dispatchSubmission and the input.detect_drop rewrite.
Salvage adjustments to PR #94392 per review:
- Narrow the supervisor claim to the systemd-VERIFIED path only. The fresh
recovery child now probes 'systemctl --user is-active' after each relaunch;
only an observed-active systemd unit is reported 'verified'. A relaunch that
merely exited 0 is labelled 'relaunch_attempted', never counts as supervisor
coverage, and never clears gateway_fleet_restart_incomplete.
- Serve-owned runtimes (serve/dashboard entries from the spawn ledger, per the
update_inventory serve collector) are no longer silently skipped: the
recovery pass records them (and manual gateways) as skipped-with-reason in
the recovery result and the persisted update receipt.
- Receipt fresh_recovery persists the conservative vocabulary
(requested/verified/relaunch_attempted/failed/skipped); 'succeeded' is gone.
- Added an end-to-end test that drives the real recovery module in a genuinely
fresh interpreter (sitecustomize shim intercepts the grandchild
'gateway restart' and systemctl probes).
A held port made 'hermes serve' print only uvicorn's bare
'ERROR: [Errno 98/10048] error while attempting to bind on address'
and exit 1 — indistinguishable from a broken backend for the desktop
spawn and wrapping scripts.
- Preflight bind probe (matching uvicorn's SO_REUSEADDR bind flags)
before uvicorn.Server; on conflict print machine-readable
'BACKEND_PORT_IN_USE port=<port>' + a human hint naming likely
holders, exit 75 (EX_TEMPFAIL — existing repo convention, see
gateway/restart.py, kanban_db.py).
- Probe-to-bind race covered: SystemExit(1) from uvicorn's own bind
failure is re-checked and translated on both POSIX and Windows
runner paths.
- --port 0 (ephemeral) short-circuits the probe: unchanged behavior.
- HERMES_BACKEND_READY contract untouched.
- Tests: real held-socket repro (sentinel + exit 75, sabotage-proven
to fail as bare exit 1 without the fix), free-port boot regression,
ephemeral-port regression, probe/classification units.
- Docs: port-conflict paragraph under 'hermes serve' in
reference/cli-commands.md.
`hermes backup` already skips `backups/` so a full zip never re-ships
earlier pre-update zips. `state-snapshots/` (written by `hermes backup
--quick`, `/snapshot create`, and the pre-update safety net) has the same
shape — every retained snapshot holds its own copy of state.db — but was
not in `_EXCLUDED_DIRS`, so a full backup shipped the DB once per
retained snapshot on top of the live one.
Two places hit this in practice:
- `hermes update` in `full` mode takes the quick snapshot *before* the
full zip, so the pre-update zip always nests the snapshot it just made
(state.db twice in every pre-update-*.zip).
- Any recurring `hermes backup --quick` (default keep=20) makes a daily
`hermes backup` grow by roughly one compressed state.db per retained
snapshot; a 750 MB state.db with two snapshots on disk pushed a daily
zip from 1.8 GB to 2.3 GB.
Add `_QUICK_SNAPSHOTS_DIR` to `_EXCLUDED_DIRS` (moving the constant up
next to the exclusion rules so there is one source of truth). Both walk
sites and `_should_exclude` share the set, so `hermes backup`, the
pre-update zip and the auto-backup path all pick it up. Restoring
snapshots after a machine move was never the point of the full backup —
`profiles.py` already excludes `state-snapshots/` from `--clone-all` for
the same reason.
Tests: unit case next to the `backups/` one, plus two end-to-end cases
that use the real `create_quick_snapshot` producer and assert the zip
carries exactly one state.db (full backup and pre-update-order).
Phase 2 core slice of #91277: the updater now knows WHAT it is operating
on before it mutates anything.
- hermes_cli/update_inventory.py (new): side-effect-free runtime
inventory — install kind via detect_install_method (git / docker / nix
/ apt, updatable-in-place or not, with the correct external update
command for image/package-managed installs), all profiles, every live
gateway with its supervisor (systemd / launchd / manual via the
fleet-wide _get_service_pids), running code_sha/code_version from the
#91283 gateway_state.json stamps, and the restart mechanism each
runtime will get.
- hermes update --plan: prints the plan and exits; runs BEFORE the
docker/nix refusal gates so image-managed installs get a useful
'not updatable in place + right command' report instead of a bare
refusal. Read-only, safe on a live fleet.
- Every real update run now records the pre-update plan in its receipt
('plan' key) and prints a one-line fleet summary, so post-mortems can
compare what the update SAW against what it did.
- Docs: updating.md (--plan section + receipts/fleet-check section),
cli-commands.md (flag row + receipts behavior bullet).
- 11 tests: two-profile fleet classification, docker not-in-place,
dead-PID exclusion, PID-file fallback dedupe, all-probes-fail
never-raises, JSON round-trip for the receipt, print output shapes,
receipt integration.
A cron job can now pin its own reasoning (thinking) effort, independent
of the global agent.reasoning_effort and per-model reasoning_overrides.
Heavy scheduled analyses can run at high while cheap recurring jobs run
at minimal, without touching the fleet-wide default.
- cron/jobs.py: new optional job field, validated at the storage choke
point against the canonical grammar via the shared
hermes_constants.parse_reasoning_effort (spelling-only; capability
clamping stays owned by the provider transports at send time, same as
config-set effort). Empty string clears on update; invalid values
raise ValueError before anything persists. Not a drift-guard axis.
- cron/scheduler.py: _resolve_job_reasoning_config resolves per-job pin
> agent.reasoning_overrides > agent.reasoning_effort at fire time,
after the auth-fallback model swap (the pin is model-independent by
design). A stored value that no longer parses warns and falls back to
config resolution instead of killing the tick.
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: reasoning_effort on BOTH mutation verbs
(create and update), conditional key in _format_job, schema documents
grammar/precedence/transport clamping/clear semantics. Agent-settable,
unlike model/provider pins: it cannot redirect spend to a different
model.
- hermes cron create/edit --reasoning-effort (empty string clears).
- Docs: cron feature page tip + CLI reference rows.
Tests: tests/cron/test_cron_reasoning_effort.py (32) — store contract,
scheduler precedence incl. byte-identical absent-field behavior and
garbage fallback, tool create/update/clear/error paths, schema surface.
'hermes --version' (and -V) now prints the full version report — banner
version line with upstream SHA, install directory, authoritative install
method, Python and OpenAI SDK versions, and update status — making the
separate 'hermes version' subcommand redundant. The subcommand is removed.
- _startup_fast.print_fast_version_info() is now THE canonical version
printer: static lines print instantly from stdlib probes, then the
banner label, install-method resolver, and update check lazy-import
after the first line is on screen (each degrades gracefully).
- main.py _print_version_info() delegates to it (used by /version in the
CLI chat surface and the --version flag path); the old duplicate
implementation is deleted.
- hermes_cli/subcommands/version.py removed; parser wiring, subcommand
sets, console-engine extraction entry, and tests updated. Hermes
Console keeps a 'version' command wired to the shared printer.
- Termux fast paths now include update status too (previously
check_updates=False).
- Docs/i18n, CONTRIBUTING, SECURITY, and nix checks updated to
'hermes --version'.
Follows PR #89762: cli-commands reference and CLI guide document the new
--query-file flag; bot-mode.md's DM and peer-dm recipes now show the
file/stdin transport instead of inlining message bodies into the shell.
Bots could message teammates on their own machine (hermes -p <bot> chat) and
the desktop could relay user mentions over Connections, but a bot had NO
transport to a bot on another gateway. This adds one, with zero new server
surface: the peer's existing api_server platform is the wire.
- hermes_cli/subcommands/peer.py: `hermes peer add/list/remove/dm`.
`dm <peer>[/<agent>]` resolves the remote agent's canonical "Bot Chat"
(list by title, create when missing), runs one synchronous agent turn via
POST /api/sessions/{id}/chat, and prints the reply on stdout — the exact
cross-machine twin of the local bot-messaging command, so the Bot Mode
protocol composes over it unchanged. Named profiles route via the peer's
/p/<profile>/ multiplex mirror. Peer URLs live in config.yaml
(`bot_peers`); the peer's API_SERVER_KEY is a credential and lives in
~/.hermes/.env as HERMES_PEER_<NAME>_KEY.
- hermes_cli/main.py: parser wiring + fast-path/session-flag command sets.
- tools/bot_mode_probe.py: when peers are registered, the injected Bot Chat
messaging protocol gains a cross-machine paragraph (peer roster +
`hermes peer dm` pattern) so agents discover remote teammates on their
own; peers join the capability fingerprint so registering/removing one
refreshes eternal Bot Chat prompts on the next message (loud, one-time,
user-initiated — no per-turn cache drift).
- Docs: Bot Mode guide (bot-initiated DMs across machines) + cli-commands
reference (`hermes peer` section + summary row).
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_peer_cmd.py (target parsing, /p/ scoping,
registry round-trip in isolated config, real-loopback-HTTP dm flow incl.
Bot Chat create-vs-reuse and bearer auth), bot_mode_probe peer-paragraph +
epoch tests. E2E: real `python -m hermes_cli.main peer ...` against a live
fake peer over HTTP with isolated HERMES_HOME (config/.env persistence,
bare + /p/<profile> routing, stdin, --json). 23 passed; ruff clean.
Follow-ups on top of the salvaged CommandCode provider plugin (PR #32909):
- hermes_cli/config_defaults.py: COMMANDCODE_API_KEY setup-wizard entry
- hermes_cli/doctor.py: add key to the doctor env-var scan list
(health check comes free via the pluggable-profile loop)
- hermes_cli/dump.py: include commandcode in debug-dump api_keys
- docs: provider table row, fallback-provider table + supported lists
- tests: doctor dedicated-skip test now uses exact-name checks so
Bearer-authed Anthropic-COMPATIBLE gateways (CommandCode (Anthropic))
are allowed in the generic loop while native anthropic stays skipped
E2E verified with real imports: profile registration, aliases,
PROVIDER_REGISTRY auto-extension, bearer-auth host match
(positive + negative), live /models fetch (55 models).
Adds hermes-pack.yaml: a single YAML file pinning a set of plugins to
exact 40-char commit SHAs with optional non-secret plugins.entries
config seeds and a declared (not yet installed) skills list.
CLI:
- hermes plugins pack install <path|https-url> [--force]: mandatory
review screen (plugins + refs + declared capabilities), one summary
confirmation, then fan-out through the existing pinned install path.
Per-plugin capability consent rides the standard #64228 flow — a pack
never bulk-grants. Partial failures reported per plugin; non-zero
exit when any fail. Interactive only (no --yes in v1).
- hermes plugins pack export [--enabled-only] [--name]: pack YAML on
stdout from install metadata (repo + exact SHA); local-only plugins
become warning comments; secrets/capability grants stripped.
- hermes plugins pack show <path|url>: dry-run view.
Supply chain: refs must be exact 40-char SHAs (tags/branches rejected
naming the entry, same rule as the community index); config seeds
reject secret-shaped, capability, and allow_* keys; bare names resolve
through the community index; https-only URL fetch with size cap.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_plugin_packs.py (36) — parse/validate,
SHA enforcement, mocked install fan-out, consent-per-plugin assertion,
export round-trip + sanitization, partial-failure exit code, parser
wiring. No live network.
Docs: user-guide plugins.md packs section (notes packs build on the
manifest v2 fields per #64165) + cli-commands.md rows.
Closes#64166
Static machine-readable community plugin index with fuzzy search and
index-resolved installs, mirroring the Skills Hub catalog pattern
(fetch → HERMES_HOME/cache with 24h TTL → bundled seed fallback).
- hermes_cli/plugin_index.py: index fetch/cache/seed chain, fuzzy
search (name/description/tags/author + typo tolerance), capability
filter, bare-name resolution. Canonical URL overridable via
plugins.index_url config key.
- hermes_cli/data/plugin_index.json: bundled seed (offline fallback +
format reference) with 5 real ecosystem plugins, each pinned to an
exact commit SHA.
- hermes plugins search [term] [--json] [--capability] [--refresh]:
Rich table or JSON output, offline-safe, with an explicit
'indexed ≠ audited' footer.
- hermes plugins install <name>: bare names (no slash, no URL scheme)
resolve through the index to owner/repo[/subdir] @ pinned ref and
hand off to the existing install path (ref wired through the #82029
exact-ref support). Ambiguous names list candidates and exit;
explicit owner/repo and Git URL installs are untouched, and an
explicit --ref always beats the index pin.
- Docs: discovery section in user-guide plugins.md (format, submission
workflow via PR to hermes-plugin-index, security framing) and
reference/cli-commands.md rows.
- Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_plugin_index_search.py (38 tests, no
live network) covering parsing, search, remote→cache→seed fallback,
TTL, install resolution/ambiguity/passthrough, and --json output.
Add a non-terminal "review" status so a worker that finished implementation
can hand off for human review without abusing kanban_block. The old
kanban_block(reason="review-required: ...") convention routed the handoff
through the unblock-loop breaker, so a normal review -> changes -> review
cycle was falsely escalated to triage.
- kanban_db: request_review (running/ready -> review, non-block, emits
review_requested), reopen_review_task (review -> ready/todo, review_reopened),
complete_task accepts review -> done, and a review_dispatch gate (default off,
shared by the dispatcher loop and the gateway health probe).
- kanban_request_review worker tool + `request-review` / `reopen-review` CLI
verbs; tool wired through toolsets, EXPOSED_TOOLS, _POLISHED_TOOLS.
- Gateway notifier wakes the origin subscriber on review_requested and
block_loop_detected; the subscription survives until done/archived, so every
review cycle re-notifies.
- Dashboard PATCH + bulk route the review transitions (request_review /
reopen_review_task) and render the review column.
- goals.py goal-loop and KANBAN_GUIDANCE recognize review as a terminator.
- Docs (reference tables, user guide, AGENTS.md, zh-Hans mirrors) + tests.
needs_input / failed are unchanged: they still route through kanban_block,
still count toward block_recurrences, and still escalate to triage.
User-visible surface from the #82616 session-continuity campaign:
- sessions.md: 'Repair Stranded Gateway Sessions' (evidence rules,
dry-run-first, why adoption is never automatic) and 'Continuity After
Crashes and Restarts' (atomic identity, self-heal, recency resolution,
reset-boundary fence)
- cli-commands.md: repair-routing row in the hermes sessions table
Docs build verified (en + zh-Hans).
--resume latest resolves the most recent session through the same
workspace-scoped MRU lookup as -c (TUI source first under --tui, with
classic-CLI fallback). --in DIR chdirs before session resolution so the
lookup keys off DIR's workspace, and pins the session there by skipping
the recorded-cwd restore.
Requested by @Jeff9James: hermes --tui --resume latest --in ./dir
- cron: state explicitly that job definitions survive updates, gateway
restarts and reboots (asked directly in #37542)
- mcp: add a Claude Code bridge tip - mcpServers maps to mcp_servers and
hermes import-agent migrates it (the MCP page never says 'mcpServers'
in the client direction; arrivals from Claude Code get no pointer)
- installation: surface loginctl enable-linger in the non-sudo/service
user section where affected users start (currently only on the
gateway page; #43748)
- sessions: document optimize, optimize-storage, repair, recover and
retitle-skills in the CLI reference (shipped in v0.19.1 --help but
absent from the table) and recommend non-destructive optimize before
prune in the db-growth tip
All wording verified against hermes v0.19.1 --help output and the live
pages on 2026-08-04.
Maps CLAUDE.md/AGENTS.md, permission allowlists, MCP servers, skills, and memories into their Hermes equivalents. Follows the openclaw migration pattern. Inspired by ChatGPT Work import-from-another-agent onboarding.
The default max_iterations/agent.max_turns budget was set when long
agentic runs were rare; complex tasks now routinely exceed 90 tool
calls. Raise the default to 500 across every surface that hardcodes
the fallback: AIAgent constructor, DEFAULT_CONFIG, CLI resolution
chain, gateway env bridge, cron scheduler, and TUI gateway. Explicit
user config values are unaffected (deep-merge preserves them; no
_config_version bump needed).
Docs (en + zh-Hans), CLI help text, tips, and pinned tests updated
to match.
Add --long-description / --long-description-file to `hermes slack
manifest` so the generated app manifest can carry Slack's
display_information.long_description (175–4,000 characters), with
validation of the length bounds, mutual-exclusion with --slashes-only,
and UTF-8 file input. Also propagate the manifest command's exit status
through cmd_slack so validation failures reach the shell.
Squash of the two commits from PR #65256 — one commit per contributor
on this salvage branch.
Salvaged from #65256
Removes Homebrew and PyPI wheel/sdist as Hermes distribution paths while
preserving the supported source, Docker, and Nix workflows.
Changes:
- Removes the Homebrew formula, PyPI publish workflow, sdist manifest
(MANIFEST.in), and wheel/sdist release-attachment logic from scripts/release.py.
- Keeps setuptools metadata and entry points required by editable installs
and Docker/Nix builds, but adds a setup.py guard that rejects wheel/sdist
builds outside a sealed Nix derivation (HERMES_NIX_BUILD=1).
- Removes pip/Homebrew install detection, PyPI update checks, the pip
self-update path, the deprecation-banner state, the postinstall subcommand,
wheel data-directory fallbacks in agent/i18n.py and hermes_constants.py,
and the ACP Registry manifest/version-lockstep release logic.
- Adds /nix/store/ path detection so `nix run` / `nix profile install`
installs (which don't set HERMES_MANAGED) are correctly identified as
"nix" rather than falling through to "git"/"unknown".
- Retired install-method values ("pip", "homebrew") in existing
.install_method stamps (both code-scoped and home-scoped) are ignored by
the allowlist reader and fall through to "unknown" instead of resurrecting
a retired enum value.
- Updates Nix packaging to ship bare runtime data (locales, optional-mcps)
through store symlinks and wrapper env vars instead of wheel data-files.
- Removes the ACP Registry manifest/icon and their version-lockstep tests.
- Deletes or rewrites packaging, pip-update, Homebrew, and ACP Registry
tests; adds parametrized coverage for the packaging build guard covering
BOTH sdist and wheel paths (the guards live in separate cmdclass entries
— a passing sdist test proves nothing about the wheel path).
- Updates installation/platform documentation and related user-facing copy.
- Adjusts the supply-chain scan so deleted install-hook files do not trigger
a finding, while additions or modifications still require the existing
ci-reviewed label gate.
Supported installation paths (unchanged):
- git installer (install.sh)
- Docker
- Nix/NixOS
- editable development installs (uv sync, uv pip install -e ., pip install -e .)
Keep the env-presence row, but add a real Bitwarden probe so revoked or malformed tokens no longer look healthy in hermes secrets bitwarden status.
Also document the new status behavior and lock it in with a dedicated regression test.
Refs: NousResearch/hermes-agent#40275
Tested: ./scripts/run_tests.sh tests/hermes_cli/test_bitwarden_status.py tests/test_bitwarden_secrets.py

* feat(secrets): one-command token rotation + actionable startup errors for all secret sources
When a Bitwarden machine-account token expired, users saw a raw Rust
error dump (invalid_client + Location: + backtrace hints) and the only
fix was manually editing .env or re-running the whole setup wizard.
- New `hermes secrets bitwarden token` / `hermes secrets onepassword
token`: paste a new token (masked prompt or flag), the command probes
the backend BEFORE persisting — a rejected token changes nothing; a
good one is written to .env and the fetch caches are cleared.
- New optional SecretSource.remediation(kind, cfg) hook: startup
warnings now print a '→ Run `hermes secrets <name> token`…' fix-it
line after any fetch error, for bundled AND plugin sources (generic
per-ErrorKind defaults in the ABC).
- bws stderr is summarized to its cause line (Location:/backtrace noise
dropped) and invalid_client/invalid_grant/400 identity rejects are
now classified AUTH_FAILED (was INTERNAL) with a plain-English
explanation naming the token env var.
- op whoami probe accepts a candidate token so rotation validates the
NEW credential, not the ambient one.
Additive hook with defaults — no SECRET_SOURCE_API_VERSION bump.
* docs: fix MDX parse error in secret-source-plugin hook table
Escaped backticks around a <name> placeholder made MDX parse it as an
unclosed JSX tag, breaking the docs-site build. Use a plain code span
instead.
hermes update ran TWO separate pre-update backup mechanisms: the
config-gated full zip (updates.pre_update_backup, default off) and an
unconditional quick state snapshot added for #15733 that ignored the
user's setting entirely. On a large state.db (observed: 24 GB) the
'cheap' snapshot silently added ~60s to every update and ate 24 GB of
disk in state-snapshots/.
Now there is ONE mechanism, gated by updates.pre_update_backup with
three modes:
- quick (new default): state snapshot of critical small files (pairing
JSONs, cron jobs, config, auth, per-profile DBs). Files over 1 GiB
are skipped with a warning so a bloated state.db can never stall the
update again.
- full: the quick snapshot plus the HERMES_HOME zip (old 'true'
behavior; --backup forces it for one run).
- off: nothing runs — an explicit opt-out now disables the quick
snapshot too (--no-backup does the same per-run).
Legacy booleans are honored: true -> full, false -> off.
_run_pre_update_backup() now returns the quick-snapshot id so the
post-update cron-jobs restore safety net (#34600) keeps working; the
snapshot moved from the post-fetch site to the pre-mutation site,
which also covers the zip-fallback update path it previously missed.
Follow-up to #60944 (webhook payload filters and route scripts):
- reference/cli-commands.md (en+zh): document the new --script option on
'hermes webhook subscribe'
- zh-Hans user-guide webhooks.md: mirror the Payload Filters and Script
Filters/Transforms sections plus the filters/script route properties
(the salvage shipped English-only docs)
- hermes-agent skill webhooks reference: teach the agent the filters/
script surface so agent-driven subscriptions can use them
--safe-mode promised to disable ALL customizations, but shell hooks
declared in config.yaml's hooks: block registered anyway —
register_from_config() runs independently of plugin discovery and
load_config() does not honor HERMES_IGNORE_USER_CONFIG. Gate it on
HERMES_SAFE_MODE at the single chokepoint so troubleshooting runs fire
zero user-configured code (plugins, MCP, and hooks).
Docs (en + zh) updated; positive + negative tests added.
