hermes_state.py: delete every '# noqa: F401 (re-exported...)' import block (hermes_state_common/errors/guard/
readpool/sessions/fts/dbfile/wal/repair/registry + agent.context_compressor _DB_PERSISTED_MARKER_KEY); keep
only the names hermes_state.py itself uses, without noqa.
hermes_state_registry.py: drop get_shared_session_db/release_shared_session_db/close_shared_session_dbs
aliases; every caller (gateway/, tools/, tui_gateway/, cron/, mcp_serve, run_agent, tests) now imports
acquire/release/close_all/release_or_close from hermes_state_registry.
hermes_state_titles.py: drop set_auto_title_if_empty shim (title_generator keeps its getattr fallback).
Re-remove shim-only names restored by 34abf954bd: latest_user_message_row_id (tests call
latest_message_row_id(key, role='user'); role-targeting assertions kept) and get_session_activity (tests
build the snapshot via agent.session_activity.build_activity_snapshot over db.get_session(sid)).
hermes_state_wal._log_once resolves its dedupe sets as module globals instead of via hermes_state;
hermes_state_repair helpers call module globals directly (tests patch hermes_state_repair.<name>).
Frozen updater surface untouched (update_cmd_maint imports only SessionDB from hermes_state).
Post-merge review follow-ups on #100201:
- acquire(): drop the never-iterating 'while True' and the redundant
'existing is not generation' half of the race check — after the retire
path, generation is always None on the fresh-open leg, so 'existing is
not None' is the complete condition. Same behavior, flat flow.
- test_mirror: the conversion to the shared registry dropped the
cleanup assertion entirely; restore it by patching
hermes_state.release_or_close and asserting the handle is released
exactly once after _append_to_sqlite.
A gateway process opened state.db from ~12 call sites, each minting its
own writer connection, self._lock, close-time WAL checkpoint, and
token-writer thread. With N independent writers on one WAL file, one
connection's close-time checkpoint could race another's growth — the
lost/reordered-page-write signature across 11+ incidents (#90837).
Adds hermes_state_registry.py: a process-wide, per-path, refcounted
shared registry owning the writer boundary.
- acquire(path): same resolved path returns the same instance (one
writer connection, one lock, one token-writer thread) for every
long-lived in-process caller (gateway runner, SessionStore, per-agent
lazy recall, cron per-job, mirror, channel_directory, slash_commands,
shutdown_flush, session_search, react_to_message, delegate, mcp_serve,
auto_archive, tui_gateway).
- close() on a shared instance is a NO-OP — the registry owns the
lifecycle, so one caller's close can never tear down a writer other
callers still hold.
- Generation-aware retirement on inode change: a replaced state.db
RETIRES the live generation (never lent again) but keeps it alive for
existing holders; release is object-keyed so holders of the old
generation drain it independently of the new one. The old
generation's own write path still fails with the typed
StateDbReplacedError (existing protection, unchanged).
- Replacement-open failure leaves NO registry entry for the path —
the next acquire retries fresh, never hands out a closed stale object.
- All teardown runs OUTSIDE the registry lock: a final release's WAL
checkpoint can never stall acquisition for every state.db.
- close_shared_session_dbs() at gateway shutdown drains every
generation (live + retired) as the final safety net.
CLI one-shots, recovery flows, and read-only cross-profile opens keep
using SessionDB() directly with their own close() — only long-lived
in-process sites route through the registry.
References #90837 (root-cause tracker stays open: the #10 EOF signature
and the WAL-lifecycle A/B verdict remain under investigation there).
Second, deeper pass over tools/gateway/hermes_cli plus first pass over
the trees wave 1 missed (acp, acp_adapter, skills, computer_use, docker,
dashboard, conformance, monitoring, secret_sources, hermes_state,
providers). Same rubric as wave 1 (AGENTS.md test policy); security,
alternation/caching invariants, issue-number regressions, and E2E kept.
Real test-quality fixes found and rooted out along the way:
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py made real auxiliary-LLM HTTPS calls
(DEFAULT_CONFIG smart-approval leaked in) — pinned approval
mode=manual via autouse fixture: 17.4s → 0.4s.
- test_model_switch_custom_providers.py / test_user_providers_model_switch.py
silently probed live provider catalogs (~2s/test) — stubbed
cached_provider_model_ids/provider_model_ids/fetch_api_models.
- test_telegram_noise_filter.py: 15-platform copy-paste matrix over
shared gateway.run logic → 3 representative platforms (55s → 3.9s).
- test_gateway_shutdown.py: stop()'s 5s interrupt-deadline loop spun on
MagicMock agents — interrupt.side_effect now clears _running_agents
(22s → 1.0s).
- test_gateway_inactivity_timeout.py poll-harness timings shrunk 3-5x
(24s → 1.1s); test_mcp_stability.py backoff/SIGTERM-grace sleeps
patched (15.4s → 2.5s); test_async_delegation.py negative-drain wait
5s → 0.5s.
- test_telegram_init_deadline.py: loop-block margin restored to 1.0s
with rationale comment — the watchdog-dump assertion needs the loop
blocked well past deadline+grace under parallel load (flaked once in
the 40-worker verification run at a 0.2s margin).
Verification: full hermetic suite via scripts/run_tests.sh —
2,438 files, 21,718 tests passed, 0 failed, 293.9s wall.
Suite totals vs original baseline: 46,820 → 19,757 test functions
(−57.8%), wall 583.5s → 293.9s (−50%), subprocess CPU 13,564s → 11,623s.
Remove unused imports (F401) and duplicate/shadowed import
redefinitions (F811) across the codebase using ruff's safe
autofixes. No behavioral changes -- imports only.
- ~1400 safe autofixes applied across 644 files (net -1072 lines)
- __init__.py re-exports preserved (excluded from F401 removal so
public re-export surfaces stay intact)
- Re-exports that are imported or monkeypatched by tests but look
unused in their defining module are kept with explicit # noqa:
F401 (gateway/run.py load_dotenv; run_agent re-exports from
agent.message_sanitization, agent.context_compressor,
agent.retry_utils, agent.prompt_builder, agent.process_bootstrap,
agent.codex_responses_adapter)
- Unsafe F841 (unused-variable) fixes deliberately skipped -- those
can change behavior when the RHS has side effects
- ruff lints remain disabled in pyproject.toml (only PLW1514 is
selected); this is a one-time cleanup, not a config change
Verification:
- python -m compileall: clean
- pytest --collect-only: all 27161 tests collect (zero import errors)
- core entry points import clean (run_agent, model_tools, cli,
toolsets, hermes_state, batch_runner, gateway)
- static scan: every name any test imports directly from an edited
module still resolves
Mirror messages are persisted via _append_to_sqlite. JSONL writer was
a redundant dual-write. Updated test assertions from JSONL file checks
to SQLite mock verification.
Two bugs fixed:
1. search_messages() crashes with OperationalError when user queries
contain FTS5 special characters (+, ", (, {, dangling AND/OR, etc).
Added _sanitize_fts5_query() to strip dangerous operators and a
fallback try-except for edge cases.
2. _append_to_sqlite() in mirror.py creates a new SessionDB per call
but never closes it, leaking SQLite connections. Added finally block
to ensure db.close() is always called.
