The salvaged carve-out covered the PKCE file and Claude Code credentials
but missed the canonical wired-token location — auth.json
credential_pool.anthropic oauth entries. Discovery accepts those via
pool.has_credentials(), so the filter must too. Read-only dict access;
api_key pool entries intentionally stay excluded (E2E case 4).
The desktop explicit-only picker filter drops any provider row where
is_provider_explicitly_configured() is False. That gate only recognizes
active_provider, model.provider, and API-key env vars — so a user who
authenticated Anthropic via OAuth (Hermes device flow or Claude Code
~/.claude/.credentials.json) had the Anthropic row silently hidden from
the desktop model picker even though list_authenticated_providers()
accepted those same credentials when building it (model_switch.py has an
equivalent special-case in its discovery path).
Unlike ambient CLI tokens (gh -> copilot), an OAuth access token only
exists after an interactive login, so its presence is deliberate user
configuration. Add a narrow carve-out for the anthropic slug that keeps
the row when either OAuth reader finds an accessToken; the strict gate
still governs every other provider, and is_provider_explicitly_configured
itself stays untouched so PR #4210's consent guard for auxiliary tasks
keeps its current behavior.
Follow-ups on top of the salvaged #92665 commits, closing the two gaps
called out in #92647:
- SEARXNG_URL / CAMOFOX_URL now count as direct web/browser configuration
in _get_gateway_direct_credentials(), so env-only keyless local setups
are offered unchecked instead of pre-checked.
- Submitting the checklist with unconfigured tools left unchecked records
them in tool_gateway_declined_tools (new known root key) and stops
pre-checking them on subsequent Nous model swaps; opting in later clears
the decline. Cancel (Ctrl-C/ESC) records nothing.
- has_direct labels mention SearXNG/Camofox when that's what's detected.
- Docs: tool-gateway.md gains an enablement-checklist section.
The early "fail closed" returns (account fetch error, not entitled,
non-nous provider) still returned 3-element tuples after the function's
happy path and every caller moved to a 4-tuple, crashing
prompt_enable_tool_gateway with ValueError for any logged-in Nous
account that isn't paid or pool-entitled — the common case, hit
unconditionally from `hermes model`.
get_gateway_eligible_tools() classified a tool as "unconfigured" whenever
it found no direct API-key credential, ignoring an explicit non-nous
selection already stored in config (e.g. web.backend: searxng, a keyless
self-hosted backend). Every unconfigured tool is pre-checked in the
`hermes model` Tool Gateway checklist, so a single Enter during Nous model
setup silently rewrote web.backend (and similarly browser.cloud_provider,
tts/stt/image_gen.provider) to "nous" for users who had deliberately
configured a keyless local backend.
get_gateway_eligible_tools() now also resolves each tool's stored
selection via the existing _selected_provider() helper and routes an
explicit non-nous selection into a new explicit_configured bucket instead
of unconfigured. prompt_enable_tool_gateway() never offers those tools,
so they can no longer be pre-checked or accidentally overwritten.
Fixes#92647
On top of @686f6c61's premise-corrected #76745:
- _looks_like_desktop_control_plane now uses the parser-derived
_hermes_holder_subcommand instead of substring matching — the
#90778/#91869 class ('-m dashboard chat' and 'kanban --preserve-cache'
argv no longer read as control planes). Regression test added,
sabotage-verified (reverting to substrings fails it).
- Live E2E (this host, real processes + real spawn ledger): live
supervised serve owns lifecycle; killed spawner (orphan) does not;
dead serve entry excluded; empty ledger does not.
- Live Windows E2E for the wine2e lane: real self-registered ledger
entry suppresses the actual cold-start plan; dead serve restores it;
holder-scan fallback rung proves the token classifier live.

Vestigial autostart is not proof the user wants a standalone gateway
run. When Desktop currently supervises this install's control plane,
the updater must not spawn a competing messaging daemon. Serve is not
treated as gateway-equivalent.
Both failed only in the full Linux suite, which the targeted local
battery never ran:
- test_update_zip_two_phase.py's AST guard (#76105) flags any code
literal "Scripts" in hermes_cli as an open-coded venv layout.
migrate_windows_bin_path's legacy PATH key now derives it via
venv_bin_dir(root / "venv", windows=True) — same value, canonical
helper. The literal `venv` component stays: the key must match what
the pre-#83797 installer wrote to the registry, not where the venv
lives now.
- The managed-bin marker tests built expected PATH entries from
tmp_path, so on a POSIX host they compared forward-slash strings
against the backslash markers and could never match. Markers match
Windows registry PATH entries, so the tests now feed Windows-shaped
literals — host-independent, same contract.
CI flake mechanism (PR #92617 red, reproduced standalone): tests plant
fake botocore modules via patch.dict; when the REAL botocore.exceptions
is first imported in an interpreter state where a fake parent is (or
was) installed, its 'from botocore.vendored import requests' resolves
against a module with no __path__ and every exception test in the worker
dies with "No module named 'botocore.vendored'" — ordering-dependent,
so green locally, red in CI workers.
Defenses (both, in depth):
- test_bedrock_adapter.py pre-imports the real botocore.exceptions at
module scope, before any test can stub sys.modules — later imports are
cache hits that can never re-execute the vendored import under a
poisoned parent. Proven standalone: fake-parent repro fails without
the pre-import, succeeds with it.
- autouse _boto_sys_modules_hygiene fixtures in all three files that
plant fake boto* modules (adapter, integration, model-picker):
snapshot every boto* sys.modules entry before each test, evict+restore
after — no stub window can leak state into a later test regardless of
worker ordering.
- importorskip targets botocore.exceptions (the module the tests
actually need) instead of bare botocore, so a torn install skips
instead of erroring.
148/148 across the four affected suites.
The #87331 remaining half: when hermes.exe (or a sibling shim) could not
be renamed aside, the updater printed a warning and ran the installer
anyway — which died partway on the same locks and stranded the venv
between versions.
- _run_quarantined_install gains strict_quarantine: any shim whose
rename failed every retry aborts BEFORE the install command runs
(successful renames rolled back), raising ShimQuarantineError.
- The update dependency sync passes strict_quarantine=True. The update
boundary turns the error into a refusal: defer via the
update-incomplete marker, exit 2 (recorded as refused by the receipt
net), never ZIP-fallback. Post-sync repair installs keep warn-and-try
(their venv is already mutated; refusing buys nothing).
- The recovery installer (_install_repair._run_install_cmd) is strict
unconditionally: marker survives, next launch retries after the
holder exits.
- Live Windows E2E for the wine2e lane: a real child holds hermes.exe
without FILE_SHARE_DELETE (the exact field lock shape), strict path
refuses with zero installer invocations, releases roll back, and the
same path proceeds once the holder exits.
Sabotage-verified: reverting the strict wiring makes both fail-closed
tests fail.
PR #92092 fixed the same vanished-launcher bug by restoring copies into
the legacy in-checkout hermes-agent\bin from the update tail. That
location is what this branch removes: untracked files there are swept
by the update autostash on every cycle (restore/sweep treadmill, plus a
parked stash entry per update under --keep-stash), and unconditional
exe copies break on relocatable venvs ('uv trampoline failed to
canonicalize script path'). This branch's managed-binary-dir layout
supersedes both mechanisms, so the merge resolves to it:
- drop _sync_windows_cli_launchers and its _ensure_acp_launcher call
(Windows staging/repair lives in ensure_windows_bin_launchers at
process start and migrate_windows_bin_path in the update tail);
_ensure_acp_launcher is a Windows no-op again
- keep #92092's genuinely better installer semantics: staging stays in
a dedicated Install-HermesCommandLaunchers function that throws
BEFORE any PATH mutation when the required launcher cannot be staged
and verified -- previously Set-PathVariable could put an empty dir on
PATH and still print 'hermes command ready'. Reworked for this
branch's layout: caller passes the destination ($HermesHome\bin),
launcher form follows the venv (exe copy vs .cmd delegator), and the
verify step accepts either form
- rework #92092's AST-lifted PowerShell test for the new function
signature, keeping its fail-before-PATH-mutation assertions and
adding relocatable-venv form-selection coverage
- drop tests/hermes_cli/test_windows_cli_launcher_repair.py (pinned the
superseded in-checkout mechanism; equivalent and broader coverage
lives in tests/hermes_cli/test_ensure_windows_bin_launchers.py)
os.geteuid() does not exist on Windows, so collecting the module
crashed with AttributeError before any test ran. Branch on
hasattr(os, "geteuid") the same way the code under test does.
Every uninstall mode deletes the code checkout, but the launchers in
the managed binary dir (%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\bin) live outside it and
survived -- so `hermes` in a new terminal resolved to a launcher whose
venv target was gone and errored, which reads worse than
command-not-found.
remove_windows_bin_launchers deletes both launcher forms (.exe/.cmd)
from the managed binary dir in every uninstall mode, anchored on the
default Hermes root so profile sessions cannot redirect the sweep into
profiles\<name>\bin. When the uninstall itself runs through the
launcher, that exe is mandatory-locked against deletion but not rename
(the same fact _quarantine_running_hermes_exe relies on), so it falls
back to renaming the launcher aside.
The managed uv (uv*.exe) in the same dir survives, and the hermes\bin
PATH entry is swept only on a full wipe from the default root
(include_managed_bin) -- a keep-data uninstall keeps the still-working
uv resolvable for reinstalls.
A lockstep test parses install.ps1's staging loop so the swept names
cannot drift from the staged names silently.
The installer staged the hermes/hermes-acp launcher copies at
hermes-agent\bin -- inside the git working tree -- and put that dir on
the user PATH (#84452). The update command's pre-pull autostash
(git stash push --include-untracked) swept those untracked, unignored
copies off disk, and once the desktop updater stopped re-applying
stashes (--keep-stash, 5dd221d442) nothing restored them: `hermes`
stopped resolving in every new terminal on every desktop-updated
install.
Move the canonical launcher home to the managed binary dir
(%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\bin, next to the managed uv) -- outside the
checkout, where no git operation can ever touch it. The dir is
per-machine and shared by every profile, so all anchoring uses
get_default_hermes_root(), never HERMES_HOME (which points inside
profiles\<name> under `hermes -p`).
The copy design also had a second latent break: managed-uv rebuilds
create relocatable venvs, and a relocatable venv's exe trampoline
resolves relative to its own location -- a copy outside venv\Scripts
dies with 'uv trampoline failed to canonicalize script path'. Launcher
form now depends on the venv (lockstep in install.ps1 and
_install_repair.py): exe copy for normal venvs, a .cmd delegator
invoking the in-venv exe by absolute path for relocatable ones. Either
form counts as present, so pre-rebuild exe copies are left alone.
Delivery to the existing fleet, per cohort:
- already-broken installs cannot run the CLI, so an import-time heal in
hermes_cli.main (ensure_windows_bin_launchers) re-stages missing
launchers when the desktop app spawns its backend -- the one channel
that still reaches them. Gates fail toward inaction: canonical dir
only for the managed clone, legacy hermes-agent\bin only while the
user PATH still resolves through it (some pre-managed-uv installs
have no hermes\bin PATH entry; the legacy re-stage is what fixes
those). Staging-name + os.replace keeps concurrent process starts
from tearing a launcher; the helper never raises.
- healthy old-layout installs migrate in the update tail
(migrate_windows_bin_path): stage canonical launchers, verify them
BEFORE touching the registry, prepend hermes\bin to the user PATH,
strip the legacy entries (hermes-agent\bin and venv\Scripts, #83797),
preserving REG_EXPAND_SZ and raw %VARS%. The legacy dir's files stay
on purpose -- configs holding absolute launcher paths keep working;
only the sweepable PATH resolution route goes.
- fresh installs get the new layout from install.ps1 directly.
/bin/ is gitignored so the one update that DELIVERS this fix cannot
sweep pre-migration launchers a final time under the old rules; the
gitignore line, the legacy re-stage branch, and the update-tail call
are transition machinery with a named expiry once the fleet has
migrated.
Also rewrites _ensure_acp_launcher's stale Windows paragraph to match
(raw docstring fixes its invalid \S escape) and updates the Windows
native docs to the new layout, with a docs<->installer parity test.
The suite now runs as one job with high per-file concurrency. Four tests
depend on state that they share with their siblings, or on a timer that
outlives them. That was safe at 8 workers. It is not safe at 96 or more.
Runs 32547184159 and 32551746525 show them.
1. Every pytest subprocess shared one temp root.
pytest puts tmp_path under <temproot>/pytest-of-<user>/. At the end of a
session it walks that directory with cleanup_dead_symlinks(). The walk lists
the directory. Then it asks whether the `pytest-current` symlink resolves.
Then it unlinks the symlink. A second process replaces that symlink between
the question and the unlink. The first process then raises FileNotFoundError
after all of its tests passed. Two files failed this way and passed on retry.
scripts/run_tests_parallel.py now gives each subprocess its own temp root
through PYTEST_DEBUG_TEMPROOT, and deletes it after the attempt. No two
processes share a directory. The race has no shared object to act on.
Proof: a direct driver of _pytest.pathlib.cleanup_dead_symlinks against one
root, with a second thread that replaces the symlink, raises the same
FileNotFoundError on 'pytest-current' as CI. A private root for each
subprocess removes that condition. A separate check confirms that 5
subprocesses receive 5 distinct roots, that tmp_path lands inside the private
root, and that no root survives the attempt.
2. The config read guard walked directories that other tests were writing.
tests/hermes_cli/test_config_read_guard.py scanned the tree with rglob. rglob
descends into every directory and filters after that, so it calls scandir() on
__pycache__ trees that the guard never inspects. Sibling processes create and
delete those entries during the run. A directory that disappears in the middle
of a walk raises FileNotFoundError out of rglob.
The scan now uses os.walk. It prunes excluded directories before it descends,
and it ignores a directory that disappears. __pycache__ joins the excluded
set, because bytecode is not source.
The guard still catches what it exists to catch. With a planted raw
yaml.safe_load of config.yaml in hermes_cli/, the test fails and names the
planted file. With a clean tree it passes.
3. A PTY test waited for a file to exist, and not for its content.
tests/tools/test_process_registry_write_stdin_surrogates.py spawns a child
that runs open(out,'wb').write(sys.stdin.buffer.readline()). open() creates
the file empty. The bytes arrive only after the PTY delivers the line. The
wait stopped at out.exists(), which the empty file already satisfies, so the
read returned b'' when the parent won that gap. This test failed both attempts
in CI, and did not pass on retry.
The test now waits for the expected bytes, with a bounded deadline.
Proof: the old wait loses 6 times in 25 runs on an idle 16-core machine. The
new wait loses 0 times in 25.
4. A dialog close timer outlived the test that started it.
ConfirmDialog holds the "done" beat for 600ms after a successful confirm, then
calls onClose. The timer had no cleanup, so an unmount inside that window left
it armed. It then called onClose on a tree that is gone, which reaches
setState in the parent. vitest can tear the environment down first, and React
then reads `window` during the update:
ReferenceError: window is not defined
at resolveUpdatePriority (react-dom-client.development.js:1308)
at dispatchSetState
at Timeout.t4 [as _onTimeout] session-actions-menu.tsx:574
The frame at session-actions-menu.tsx:574 is the `onClose` prop of
DeleteSessionDialog. The owner of the timer is ConfirmDialog, which now keeps
the handle in a ref and clears it on unmount.
Zoomable had the same fault, with a 1500ms timer that clears a "copied" flag.
copy-button.tsx and tooltip.tsx already clear their timers.
Proof: a new test confirms, unmounts inside the 600ms window, then advances
the clock. Against the old code it fails with "expected onClose to not be
called at all, but actually been called 1 times". Against the new code it
passes.
Verification:
- The affected Python files and the tests of the runner itself pass under
scripts/run_tests.sh.
- The desktop ui suite passes: 566 files, 5382 tests, and no
"window is not defined".
- eslint reports 0 errors on apps/desktop. The 118 warnings are the state
before this change. The two cleanup effects carry an eslint-disable line for
the ref-mirror rule. They write a timer handle, and not a mirror of a
reactive value. The rule permits this, and its own comment names the case.
- The PTY test cannot run on the NixOS development machine. That machine has
no python3 outside the nix store, and the test uses the literal `python3`.
The child exits 127 there. The fix rests on the 25-run measurement above and
on CI.
The old contract WAS the bug (#70337): exe deleted by the swap, then
rebuilt from scratch. With the release-dir graft the exe survives the
swap; the test now asserts survival + original bytes.
The #70337/#87331 win-unpacked wipe half, from PR #70477 by @JonthanaHanh
(reimplemented against the two-phase staged swap that postdates that
branch — the live release/ dir is grafted into the staged apps copy
BEFORE the atomic commit, so preservation rides the same rollback
machinery instead of a post-hoc copy).

Surgical reapply of PR #87878 (@kshitijk4poor's salvage of #87327 by
@liruixinch) onto current main — the receipt-boundary and summary
changes from this session made the original commits conflict.
- ZIP fallback now keys on git ACTUALLY having failed
(_should_zip_fallback_on_update_error): a dependency-install failure
after a successful pull can't be fixed by re-downloading source and
would clobber the tree (#87331 cascade trigger, #87304).
- _abort_zip_update_if_dirty_tree: refuse to overlay a dirty checkout
(-uall so user gitconfig can't blind the guard) + pre-swap TOCTOU
re-check with our own staging artifacts filtered (#91962, #87304).
- Failure-stage naming (_format_update_failure_stage) + stderr tail so
'Git update failed' stops mislabeling pip/uv failures.
- Receipt finalize preserved on the no-fallback failure path.

Review on #91869 (@andrexibiza): the handwritten value_flags subset
misparsed '--reasoning high serve' as subcommand 'high' and
'-m dashboard serve' as 'dashboard' — recreating the wrong-hint class.
_holder_value_flags() now introspects build_top_level_parser() (every
option with nargs != 0, plus the pre-argparse profile selectors), with
a static fallback for broken-tree updates, --flag=value handled.
Regressions for --reasoning/-m/-t/--model=/-c per review.
De-flake test_goal_resume_restart: the fixture only set the HERMES_HOME
env var, but get_hermes_home() prefers the context-local override — an
override leaked by any earlier test in the xdist worker pointed the
goals DB at a dead tmp dir and resume enqueued nothing (the CI-only
red). Fixture now pins the override via set/reset_hermes_home_override.
Mechanism proven both ways: env-only fixture cannot beat a leaked
override; pinned fixture immune.
Diagnostic run showed the venv shim makes every spawn a launcher/worker
chain: the child's direct parent is its own launcher (python.exe
child_scan.py), and the gateway-argv process is the grandparent. The
probe now finds the gateway ancestor by argv — the same way the pause
machinery would — and asserts THAT pid is visible to the scan.
#90778: _hermes_holder_subcommand() — token-based parse of the actual
Hermes subcommand (profile selectors skipped, flags never matched), so
'hermes dashboard' stops being labeled as the Desktop backend and
'--preserve-cache' stops matching 'serve'. Unknown argv gets no hint
instead of a wrong one.
#87594: ancestor-exclusion in _detect_venv_python_processes and
_venv_launcher_ancestors now carves out GATEWAY ancestors (canonical
looks_like_gateway_command_line): when /update runs as the gateway's
child, the gateway stays visible to the scan so the pause machinery can
stop it, while shells/terminals/own-venv ancestry stay excluded.
15 cross-platform classifier tests; live Windows E2E suite is the
acceptance gate on this branch.
On-demand workflow (fires only on wine2e/** pushes, never on PRs/main)
that runs a live venv-holder E2E on windows-latest: real spawned
processes with Hermes argv shapes, real detection/classification/
message code against the live process table. Tests pin CORRECT behavior
for the cluster issues (#90778 mislabeling, #78089 long-path exemption,
#87594 ancestor-exclusion, #81774 serve premise), so unfixed bugs fail
on the runner — empirical premise-check before the consolidation fix.
Bot Mode agents now DM teammates through a real tool instead of
hand-assembled shell commands. message_agent(target, message) validates
the target against the live roster, applies the sender's attribution
prefix server-side, and delivers over the existing proven transports
(hermes -p ... --query-file for local teammates, hermes peer dm for
peer gateways) as a tracked background process with notify-on-complete
— fire-and-forget, the reply wakes the sender on a later turn.
Containment: the schema is injected per-turn ONLY into a bot's
canonical 'Bot Chat' session on Bot-Mode-managed installs (same gate as
the protocol section); it is never registered in the tool registry or
any toolset, and dispatch re-gates on the session title so a forged
call from any other session refuses. The gate is session-stable, so the
tool list stays byte-identical across turns (prompt-cache safe).
The protocol section is rewritten to teach the tool and now carries the
teammate roster WITH ROLES (Bot Mode title + profile description), so
bots know who does what before picking a recipient. Roles and a
protocol version salt join the capability fingerprint: existing eternal
Bot Chats adopt the v2 protocol + tool with one epoch refresh, and a
rename/description edit refreshes the roster on the next message.
Review feedback on #89507: in-place merging suits a branch that tracks the
target with a small patch set, but a long-lived feature branch (a PR branch
hundreds of commits deep) does not want an update-driven merge commit
written into its history. Reported against a checkout carrying 819 unmerged
commits.
--switch-branch routes the unmerged case to the switch path instead: the
checkout moves to the update target and updates there, and the branch is
left byte-identical — no merge, no commit, nothing written to it. The tree
is known clean on that path (the guard checks dirty before cherry), so a
dirty tree still gets the loud skip, unchanged.
Opt-in: without the flag the default remains the in-place update, which is
what keeps a small-patch-set branch's running code current.
Tests: the flag switches and leaves the branch tip byte-identical; the
default without it still updates in place. The first fails if the flag's
branch is severed.

The parked-branch guard (8ce8ffd429) distinguishes checkouts by what the
branch carries, then treats both non-clean cases the same: a stale
fully-merged leftover is switched back to the target (correct), but a
branch with unmerged commits — a branch someone is actually working on —
gets CODE UPDATE SKIPPED and exit 1. For anyone running a maintained
custom branch on top of main, every update now refuses, and the guidance
('checkout main') abandons their branch.
The guard's own reason codes already separate the cases, so use them:
- fully merged -> switch back to the target (unchanged)
- unmerged:N -> update the branch IN PLACE: fetch, then bring
origin/<target> into the checkout. Fast-forward
when possible; on divergence, a true merge behind
a pre-update safety tag, stopping cleanly on
conflict. The checkout never moves; local commits
survive; the running code advances.
- dirty/unverifiable/opted out -> skip loudly (unchanged)
The post-pull success gate learns that an in-place update legitimately
ends on a non-target branch: origin/<target> was merged INTO the checkout,
so refusing to claim success there would fail every update that did
exactly the right thing.
Guard tests updated: the unmerged case now asserts the in-place outcome —
target code arrives (b.txt from c3), the branch's own commit survives, and
HEAD never moves. 18/18 guard tests, 20/20 with the diverged-update suite.

A clean checkout parked on a feature branch now always switches to the
update target. Unmerged commits are safe on the branch (git checkout
never discards committed work) and get a loud 'kept' notice naming the
branch, count, and the checkout command to resume the work. Previously
the update hard-skipped with exit 1 — a dead end for the desktop update
button, gateway /update, and cron, which have no way to resolve a skip.
Dirty trees (uncommitted changes) still skip loudly, and the
updates.auto_switch_parked_branch: false opt-out still pins the branch.
Drop the bulk test additions from the original PR; keep only mandatory
picker-assertion adaptations (Mantle IDs join the discovery lists), one
allowlist routing test covering all four Mantle model IDs, the 272K
context check, and the two review-mandated auxiliary regressions
(config-region-beats-env for the Mantle path, aux Responses client).
Address review feedback on #65076:
- Add resolve_bedrock_runtime_region() to agent/bedrock_adapter.py: the
config-first region resolution (bedrock.region in config.yaml, then
AWS_REGION/AWS_DEFAULT_REGION/botocore profile/us-east-1) that the main
runtime resolver uses, exposed as a shared helper.
- Switch auxiliary client resolution (agent/auxiliary_client.py aws_sdk
branch) to the new helper. Previously it derived its region with bare
resolve_bedrock_region() (env-first), so when config.yaml pinned
bedrock.region to a different region than the ambient AWS env, auxiliary
calls (compression, memory, vision) left the primary runtime's region.
Both the AnthropicBedrock/Converse path and the new Mantle OpenAI
Responses path now resolve identically to the main runtime.
- Add regression tests covering the bedrock.region-vs-AWS_REGION mismatch
for both the Claude auxiliary path and the Mantle auxiliary path.
- Update website/docs/guides/aws-bedrock.md: the guide claimed Hermes never
uses the OpenAI-compatible endpoint, which the Mantle route made stale.
Document the triple routing (AnthropicBedrock / Mantle OpenAI Responses /
Converse), the Mantle auth model (bearer token or SigV4), and add the
GPT-5.5/5.6 model IDs to the models table.
GPT-5.6 Sol, Terra, and Luna went GA on Amazon Bedrock on 2026-07-13.
Like GPT-5.5, they are served exclusively from the Bedrock Mantle
OpenAI-compatible Responses endpoint (the model cards list
bedrock-runtime/Converse as unsupported), so they ride the allowlist
routing introduced for GPT-5.5:
- Add openai.gpt-5.6-{sol,terra,luna} to BEDROCK_OPENAI_RESPONSES_MODEL_IDS
so runtime resolution, auxiliary calls, and MoA slots all take the
SigV4/bearer Mantle Responses path.
- Surface the family in the curated Bedrock picker list.
- Record the 272K context window from the AWS model cards for all four
Mantle OpenAI models (previously fell back to the 128K default).
- Generalize picker tests from the hardcoded single-model checks to the
BEDROCK_OPENAI_RESPONSES_MODEL_IDS allowlist so future Mantle model
additions do not require test surgery; add routing, picker, and
context-length coverage for the 5.6 family.
Docs: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/bedrock/latest/userguide/model-cards-openai.html
Route Bedrock-hosted OpenAI GPT-5.5 through the Bedrock Mantle OpenAI Responses endpoint with SigV4 request signing. Keep native Bedrock Converse and Claude Bedrock routing unchanged, and add picker/runtime regression coverage.
hermes backup freezes mid-archive when a .db file under HERMES_HOME is
locked by another process — e.g. a live Chromium profile database held
with an exclusive lock by a running browser. sqlite3.Connection.backup()
retries SQLITE_BUSY indefinitely and never honors the connection's busy
timeout, while a plain statement on the same source fails cleanly after
~5s with "database is locked".
Fixes:
- Probe the source with a cheap read before snapshotting, so a locked
database fails fast instead of hanging the whole backup.
- Add a watchdog that interrupts the source connection after 15 minutes
as a last resort for pathological cases.
- Exclude browser-profiles/ from full backups: the CDP browser profile is
live, regenerable (cache + re-login), and unsafe to snapshot while
running. On a real install this cut the backup from 28,396 files /
1.1 GB to ~4,000 files / 548 MB, completing in ~33s instead of hanging.
The pre-update automatic backup shares this code path and was equally
at risk.
Adds a regression test that holds an EXCLUSIVE transaction in a separate
process and asserts _safe_copy_db returns False in bounded time.
`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).
Free ($0/$0) Nous Portal models sat with a blank discount column and no
sale star (stealth/ox-alpha, upstage/solar-pro4:free), reading as missing
data next to the -20% sale rows. compute_sale_discount now returns a flat
100% for free models; was_* raws pass through only when the gateway served
a pricing.original, so natively-free models render bare '-100%' with no
fabricated 'was ?/?'. CLI picker star follows on_sale automatically;
inventory feed carries discount_percent=100 to Desktop, whose FREE badge
row now renders the amber -100% pill beside it.
The OpenCode Zen wire slug for the Ox Alpha stealth model is opaque
(x-preview-f-free); users searching the picker for 'ox' or 'ox-alpha'
found nothing. Adds the search alias across all four synced alias
tables (CLI, desktop, web, TUI) plus tests. Wire id is unchanged and
still what renders and gets sent to the provider, matching the k3 →
kimi-k3 precedent. No canonical-dedup collision with opencode-go's
keyed ox-alpha-free slug.
resolve_exec_command wrote the repo hermes script (env-python shebang)
straight into Exec=; spawned by the DE that shebang escapes the venv and
dies on the first import, invisibly (Terminal=false, entry rewritten
every launch). A python-script launcher whose shebang points outside the
running interpreter's env now gets Exec={sys.executable} {script} desktop;
native binaries, bash wrappers, and venv-shebang scripts are untouched.
The code swap and gateway fleet restart touch all profiles, but the
pre-update quick snapshot photographed only the invoking profile's home
— siblings had no snapshot for the post-update safety nets or manual
restore to draw on.
- backup.py: create_pre_update_snapshots_all_profiles() — the SAME
snapshot set, per-file 1GiB cap, and keep policy as the invoking
profile (no partial tier, no new restore-coherence class), each into
the sibling's own state-snapshots/; restore_cron_jobs_all_profiles()
runs the #34600 cron-loss safety net per profile against its OWN
snapshot (same-generation by construction).
- update_cmd.py: sibling snapshots taken right after the invoking
profile's (best-effort, receipt-recorded); post-update cron restore
extended to every sibling.
- Docs: updating.md pre-update snapshot step now states the per-profile
behavior and the file-loss-recovery vs rollback contract.
- 9 unit tests + E2E (real files: sibling snapshot on disk, clobbered
jobs.json restored 7/7 from the sibling's own snapshot, keep=1 prune).
First actioned report from the overhauled model-catalog-scout cron
(2026-08-21 validation run), every item re-verified live before edit:
Delisted (gone from live catalogs):
- opencode-zen curated: claude-opus-4-1, qwen3.7-max, qwen3.7-plus
(absent from live zen /v1/models; qwen3.7 family remains on Go)
- OPENROUTER_MODELS free section: poolside/laguna-m.1:free (rotated to
s-2.1/xs-2.1), tencent/hy3:free, inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t:free
Added (present + verified in live catalogs):
- OpenRouter free: z-ai/glm-5.2:free (256K), poolside/laguna-s-2.1:free
+ laguna-xs-2.1:free (262K), nvidia/nemotron-3.5-lightning:free (1M)
- opencode-go curated: ox-alpha-free (Go-subscription twin of the Zen
keyless Ox Alpha; keyed — Go relay 401s anonymous requests)
Metadata:
- DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS: laguna-s-2.1/xs-2.1 262144;
nemotron-3.5-lightning 1M (overrides the generic 131K nemotron entry);
glm-5.2:free 256K (the free variant is capped below the 1M paid entry)
Keyless-heal hardening (the real find):
- opencode_zen_free_runtime now gates the zen/go→keyless heal on
MEMBERSHIP in the verified opencode-free catalog, not the -free
suffix — ox-alpha-free is a KEYED Go model despite its suffix, and
suffix-based healing would have routed it to a Zen relay that
doesn't serve it (verified: zen 401s 'not supported', go 401s
'Missing API key'). New regression test pins this.
Fixture sweep: tencent/hy3:free catalog assertion updated (delisted
slug); nous-route fixtures using hy3:free as incidental model names
left alone (self-consistent mocks). model-catalog.json regenerated.
A keyless provider has no credential to lack, but every auth-gated
surface treated 'no key' as 'not authenticated', so opencode-free was
invisible in /model, provider:model listing, and the desktop model
pickers unless a user had unrelated OpenCode env vars set.
One policy, three gates, all derived from the HermesOverlay keyless
flag (#91358):
- auth.py get_api_key_provider_status: keyless providers report
configured/logged_in=True with key_source 'keyless' — flows through
get_auth_status to every status consumer (hermes status, dashboards,
list_available_providers).
- model_switch.py list_authenticated_providers: keyless overlay rows
get has_creds=True before any env/pool/auth-store checks — this is
the source for /model, the TUI picker, and the desktop
/api/model/options payload.
- inventory.py explicit-only filter (desktop chat pickers): keyless
providers are kept — there is nothing to 'explicitly configure', and
hiding a zero-setup provider defeats its purpose.
E2E (temp HERMES_HOME, all keys stripped): get_auth_status logged_in,
list_available_providers authenticated, picker row with 6 models,
desktop payload default AND explicit_only both include the provider,
and the full switch pipeline (parse free:x-preview-f-free →
switch_model) resolves to the keyless runtime. 4 new tests.
