Adds a pre_transcription transform hook (prompt/language/model mutable,
file_path read-only, last-writer-wins per the transform_* convention)
fired before any STT backend, threads prompt to faster-whisper
(initial_prompt) and OpenAI/Groq/Mistral/DeepInfra (prompt), adds an
optional stt.prompt config key on the same plumbing, and keeps the
no-hook dispatch path byte-identical. Fixes#64168.
Documents the new surface for users: a "Transcription prompt
(vocabulary hints)" subsection in the configuration guide (composition
order, per-provider support matrix, length contract, privacy warning),
a pre_transcription entry in the hooks reference, and the mirrored row
in the plugins hook table.

Give plugins a first-class, namespaced pub/sub event bus so plugin↔plugin
interaction is a declared, testable contract instead of ad-hoc imports.
Closes#64164 (sub-issue 03/14 of the plugin-interface expansion epic #64182).
Additive-only: when no plugin calls emit/subscribe, behavior is unchanged.
Interface (on PluginContext):
- `ctx.emit(event, payload=None) -> int` publishes to subscribers and returns
the count invoked. The namespace is FORCED to the plugin's own registry key
(`manifest.key or manifest.name`): pass only the bare event name, delivered
as `<key>:<event>`. Fail-closed — any name containing `:` (a `hermes:`
reserved-core prefix, a foreign `other:` namespace, or an own-colon'd name)
is rejected with a ValueError + logged warning naming the plugin.
- `ctx.subscribe(full_event, callback)` registers an ordered listener for a
fully-qualified `<plugin>:<event>`. Subscribing is unrestricted (any plugin
may listen to any published event); only emitting is namespace-gated.
Delivery mirrors invoke_hook: registration-order iteration, per-callback
try/except isolation (one raising subscriber never breaks delivery to the
rest), payload passed as `cb(**payload)`. A per-thread depth counter caps
re-entrant emits at 8 — mutually-emitting plugins terminate cleanly with one
logged warning, never an infinite loop or RecursionError.
Discoverability: optional advisory `emits:`/`listens:` manifest fields (no
manifest-v2 dependency; not enforced) are parsed and surfaced by a new
`hermes plugins show <name>` (alias `info`) command. `get_plugin_subscriptions()`
module accessor mirrors `get_plugin_auxiliary_tasks()`.
Tests (tests/hermes_cli/test_plugin_event_bus.py, 22): two-plugin delivery +
listener count; forced namespace (delivered as `b:ping`); spoof rejection
(parametrized `hermes:x` / foreign / own-colon'd / `:x` / `x:` / empty) with
no delivery; name-fallback when key empty; per-callback isolation; recursion
cap termination + warning; manifest emits/listens parsed (present/absent/from
yaml); module accessor; `plugins show` output. `pytest test_plugin_event_bus.py
test_plugin_auxiliary_tasks.py` → 37 passed. I independently re-verified the
namespace rejection and recursion-cap termination outside the test suite.
Note: the reserved-name gate rejects any `:`-containing input rather than a
bare-name denylist — a bare `core_event` is allowed and delivered under the
plugin's own namespace. Say the word if a reserved bare-name list is wanted.

Every new vendor token format has required a core PR appending to
_PREFIX_PATTERNS in agent/redact.py (fw_, retaindb_, hsk-, mem0_, brv_
all landed that way; #58466/#58501 are the latest of the class). This
adds an additive-only registry so provider plugins own their format:
- agent/redact.py: register_redaction_patterns(patterns, source) —
validates each pattern (must compile; must start with >=2 literal
characters so the pre-screen substring gate keeps working and
redact-everything patterns like `.*` are structurally impossible),
dedupes against built-ins and prior registrations, then atomically
rebuilds _PREFIX_RE and _PREFIX_SUBSTRINGS. Registered patterns get
identical treatment to built-ins everywhere: same head/tail masking,
same non-reusable «redacted:label…» sentinel on file_read, same
security.redact_secrets operator opt-out. Additive-only by design —
a plugin can extend masking, never weaken it. Includes a
test/teardown reset helper.
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: PluginContext.register_redaction_patterns()
delegating with per-plugin attribution; warns and returns 0 on any
failure so a broken plugin can never break startup.
- Bundled reference plugin `nvapi-redaction` (opt-in): masks NVIDIA
API keys (nvapi-, used by NIM / build.nvidia.com) — a real format
missing from core, shipped as the one-liner plugin that previously
would have been a one-line core PR.
13 new tests: baseline gap, masking + built-ins unaffected, invalid
regex / no-literal-prefix / dedupe / non-string rejection, file_read
sentinel labeling, reset semantics, PluginContext wiring incl.
exception isolation, and a no-mocks end-to-end through the demo
plugin. Existing redaction suites (tests/agent/test_redact.py,
tests/tools/test_kanban_redaction.py) pass untouched.

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.
Closes#26193
Adds ContextReferenceProvider ABC so plugins can register custom
@-prefixes (e.g. @issue:ENG-123) with autocomplete and expansion.
Plugin output flows through existing token-limit guards. Zero
breaking changes.
Additive plugin.yaml v2 fields (all optional; v1 manifests unchanged forever):
- manifest_version: manifest FILE-FORMAT version (absent = 1). Deliberately
split from api_version per the round-2 design correction. Newer-than-
supported versions load with a warning, unknown fields ignored.
- api_version: runtime plugin API generation the plugin targets (integer).
- requires_plugins: advisory inter-plugin deps ({id, version_range?}).
Missing dep = warn + still load (ctx.has_plugin() runtime probe added).
Load ORDER is dependency-respecting: graphlib topological sort, stable
alphabetical tiebreak; cycles warn and fall back to alphabetical.
- python_dependencies: declared pip requirements — VALIDATED AND SURFACED
ONLY (loader warning + install-time printout + doctor checks with a pip
install hint). Never auto-installed: the isolation design for the install
seam (#15220) is an explicitly deferred follow-up per the round-2 review.
- config_schema: JSON-schema-ish description of plugins.entries.<id>.settings
keys; validated at load, mismatches are actionable warnings naming the key
and expected type — never load failures.
- Formalized metadata: license, homepage, tags.
- Unknown manifest fields warn-don't-fail (debug-level for v1 manifests).
- hermes plugins doctor gains v2 checks: future manifest_version, invalid
api_version, dep declarations, unpinned/missing python_dependencies,
unknown config_schema types.
- Docs: manifest v2 reference table in the developer-guide plugins index,
including the explicit pip-seam isolation deferral and the note that
#64166 packs build on these fields.
- Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_plugin_manifest_v2.py (19 tests) covering v1
regression, v2 parse, unknown-field warn, dep order, cycle fallback,
config_schema warnings, and the surfaced-not-installed pip seam.
Salvage of PR #64317 (@deaneeth) onto current main, implementing #64161:
observer-only on_stream_start / on_stream_delta / on_stream_end /
on_interim_message plugin hooks dispatched through a host-owned bounded
queue (one worker per callback) so plugin callbacks never run inline on
the token path. Reasoning deltas are opt-in via
plugins.stream_reasoning_deltas.
Unify the scattered per-plugin trust gates into one declared, diffable
capability model with an install/update-time consent flow. Consent +
audit over host API surfaces — explicitly NOT a sandbox.
New module hermes_cli/plugin_capabilities.py:
- Canonical CAPABILITY_REGISTRY mapping each capability id 1:1 to an
EXISTING enforcing gate (no capability minted without a surface):
tools.override -> allow_tool_override
llm.provider_override -> llm.allow_provider_override
llm.model_override -> llm.allow_model_override
llm.agent_id_override -> llm.allow_agent_id_override
llm.profile_override -> llm.allow_profile_override
llm.task_override -> llm.allow_task_override
- plugin_capability_granted(plugin_id, capability): canonical check —
granted set OR deprecated legacy allow_* key; fail closed on unknown
ids and any unreadable/corrupt consent state; emits checked_by audit
log lines on every decision.
- record_consent() persists plugins.entries.<id>.granted_capabilities +
capabilities_consent {hash, granted_at} and mirrors grants into the
legacy keys so existing enforcement sites keep working unchanged.
- capability_set_hash / pending_capabilities / declared_set_changed
power the update-time re-consent diff.
Wiring:
- plugin.yaml manifest field `capabilities:` parsed into
PluginManifest.capabilities (unknown ids dropped with a warning).
- hermes plugins install: consent screen (one Y/n) when the manifest
declares capabilities; non-interactive installs proceed with
capabilities ungranted (fail closed).
- hermes plugins update: when the new version declares capabilities the
granted set lacks (hash diff), the additions are surfaced and require
re-consent — an update can never silently widen access.
- hermes plugins enable: consent screen replaces the standalone
tool-override prompt for capability-declaring plugins.
- hermes plugins capabilities [<id>]: declared vs granted per plugin,
flags grants held via deprecated legacy keys.
- PluginContext.has_capability() probing API so plugins degrade
gracefully; _tool_override_allowed migrated to the canonical
plugin_capability_granted path (reference migration; legacy
allow_tool_override still honored).
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_plugin_capabilities.py (38 tests) —
declaration parsing, consent grant/persist, update re-consent on added
capability, fail-closed on missing/corrupt state, legacy-gate backward
compat, consent CLI flow (grant / decline / non-interactive).
Docs: user-guide plugins.md consent section (with explicit not-a-sandbox
warning) + developer-guide plugin authoring capability note.
Salvages the intent of PR #37976 (@coygeek — require renewed review
before plugin updates), scoped to capability diffs.
Part of #64182.
Users who install Hermes and then restore a backup (hermes import) ended
up with bot tokens and cron jobs fully registered but nothing running
them: the setup wizard's service-install prompt lived at the end of the
Messaging Platforms section, so skipping messaging (the normal case on a
box whose tokens arrive with the import afterward) skipped the service
entirely, and run_import never touched the service layer at all.
A platform-less gateway is already a supported mode (gateway/run.py runs
the cron scheduler and picks platforms up as tokens appear), so there is
no reason to gate the service on messaging config — or to ask at all.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py: new ensure_gateway_service() — prompt-free,
never-raising install+start of the user-scope service (systemd /
launchd / Scheduled Task), no-op in containers and on hosts without a
service manager, refuses to pile onto conflicting user+system units.
- hermes_cli/setup.py: setup_gateway() service block now runs
unconditionally (zero platforms included) and auto-installs instead of
prompting; restart-on-config-change keeps its prompt. Quick-setup and
migrated-config paths that skip the messaging section now call
ensure_gateway_service() so they can no longer skip the service.
- hermes_cli/backup.py: run_import() ends by installing/starting the
service when none is running, with a manual fallback hint on failure.
- tests: new tests/hermes_cli/test_ensure_gateway_service.py (9 cases)
+ 3 run_import wiring tests; existing backup tests get an autouse
fixture so they never touch the host's real service manager.
Builds on Paolo Antinori's #68431 salvage for #64176. Move plugin dispatch behind the profile-scoped runner authorization boundary, fail closed on malformed reaction identities, preserve observer registration across Telegram app rebuilds, and document the deliberately observer-only contract.

Response to teknium1's hermes-sweeper review (keep_open, salvageability=medium).
1. Post-auth gate. The group-99 catch-all fired gateway_platform_event before
the authorization boundary. Extract _is_source_authorized(source) from
_is_user_authorized_from_message and add _source_from_reaction_for_auth;
reactions whose actor the intake would reject no longer reach plugins.
Fails closed if source extraction raises, so a future non-reaction event
type cannot silently bypass auth before its own extraction is wired.
2. Shared registration. Extract _register_handlers(app) from connect() so the
gateway_platform_event observer (group 99) is re-registered alongside the
core handlers on any rebuild path.
3. Trim inert hook surface. Drop the three reserved gateway_* names from
VALID_HOOKS (keep only gateway_platform_event). The others land with their
real contracts and fire-sites when #64231 is finalized.
Tests: unauthorized/authorized/open reaction gating, fail-closed for a future
non-reaction event type, and _register_handlers re-registration.
Ran /simplify and /code-review (high) before pushing.
First slice of #64176's observer-hook half — a normalized-envelope inbound
event hook, replacing raw-SDK handler args with a stable contract (per #64176's
"normalized versioned envelopes only; raw SDK gated behind a capability" rule).
- VALID_HOOKS: register the four gateway_* names from #64176
(gateway_platform_event fires today; gateway_session_titled /
gateway_message_delivered / gateway_thread_created reserved pending #64176's
fire-sites).
- BasePlatformAdapter._fire_gateway_hook: reusable, has_hook-guarded,
per-call-isolated fire helper (the no-subscriber common case short-circuits).
- TelegramAdapter: a group-99 catch-all TypeHandler normalizes inbound updates
into gateway_platform_event envelopes. message_reaction -> {platform,
event_type:"reaction", payload{emojis, custom_emoji_ids, chat_id, message_id,
thread_id}} (custom-emoji reactions captured via custom_emoji_id; standard via
.emoji — no None in consumer-facing lists). Other update types return None
pending #64176's taxonomy (#64231). Normalization is wrapped so a malformed
update can't raise into PTB dispatch.
Observer-only — zero behavioral change to core dispatch. Supersedes the raw
inbound half of #62584 (telegram:update -> normalized gateway_platform_event).
Tests: VALID_HOOKS registration; _fire_gateway_hook routing/has_hook/isolation;
_normalize for standard, custom-emoji, and mixed reactions + non-reaction;
_on_platform_update firing + normalize-error isolation.
Ran code-review (high) + simplify before pushing.

Salvage the plugin-owned static prompt idea from PR #51589 into the constrained #64167 contract: stable IDs, deterministic placement, bounded fail-open rendering, and full-prompt resume recovery without new session columns.

Route plugin target parsing, validation, and host-driven delivery through PlatformEntry across CLI and cron while preserving the host-only send_message policy.
Wire an optional `task=<key>` kwarg through the PluginLlm facade so a
plugin can route an LLM call through an auxiliary model slot it
registered via `ctx.register_auxiliary_task`. Registration already
existed; this adds the missing consumption half. Closes#44673.
Sub-issue 08/14 of the plugin-interface expansion tracking issue #64182.
- New optional `task:` kwarg on complete/acomplete/complete_structured/
acomplete_structured. Unset or "auto" keeps today's main-model path
byte-for-byte (task=None reaches call_llm exactly as before), so no
prompt-cache or default-behavior change.
- A set task resolves provider/model through `auxiliary.<task>` via the
existing auxiliary_client path, identical to built-in aux tasks.
- Trust gate (per the round-2 design correction): a plugin may only pass
a key it registered itself; a built-in key additionally requires
`plugins.entries.<id>.llm.allow_task_override: true`. A foreign or
unknown key is rejected with a PluginLlmTrustError and a logged warning
naming the offending plugin and key -- fail loud, NOT a silent fallback
to auto (which would mask misconfiguration and could route to the main
model the user steered elsewhere).
- The plugin_llm audit dict and audit-log line gain a `task` field.
- register_auxiliary_task now stores the plugin's canonical id
(`key or name`, the same id ctx.llm is bound to) as the slot owner, so
the trust gate matches ownership even when a manifest sets a distinct
key. For the common no-key case this equals the name (unchanged).
Tests (tests/agent/test_plugin_llm_task_routing.py, 24): _check_task
resolution incl. own/foreign/unknown/built-in-gated keys and loud
rejection; end-to-end routing sync+async+structured; production-path
forwarding into call_llm/async_call_llm (covers the task=None->task line);
and ownership resolution against the real plugin registry incl. the
name/key reconciliation.

Address teknium1 review on #64189:
- Re-pull gate now delegates to each source's is_enabled(cfg) via the
registry contract, so a plugin source with custom activation logic is
honored (previously only secrets.<name>.enabled was checked).
- Add BUILTIN_SOURCE_NAMES to the registry so plugin-vs-bundled is a
single source of truth instead of a hard-coded set at the call site.
- Reconcile docs: rewrite the timing :::note to describe both the
post-discovery re-pull and the remaining import-time limitation, and
cross-link the first-process bootstrap section.
- Tests: real SecretSource subclasses, custom is_enabled activation
(positive + negative), is_enabled-raises skip, builtin-only no-op,
and a discovery-registration end-to-end re-pull check.
After plugins register SecretSource backends, reset the env-loader cache
and re-run load_hermes_dotenv when an enabled plugin secret source is
configured. Closes the first-process bootstrap gap where import-time env
load stale-outs plugin vaults (tommck / Community ask). Fail-open, no-op
without plugin sources.
Docs: first-process bootstrap timing on secret-source plugin guide.
Tests: unit coverage for noop / enabled re-pull / discover hook.

* fix(windows): SSH ControlMaster gating + stop hijacking the user's python
Two Windows environment-integrity fixes:
1. tools/environments/ssh.py (#73927): Windows OpenSSH has no
Unix-domain-socket ControlMaster support, so unconditionally passing
ControlPath/ControlMaster/ControlPersist failed EVERY tool call on a
Windows-hosted ssh terminal backend with 'getsockname failed: Not a
socket'. Gate the three multiplexing options behind a module-level
_SSH_MULTIPLEX = (os.name != 'nt'); the scp upload path is gated the
same way. On Windows the backend now works without connection pooling
(each command a fresh connection); POSIX behavior is unchanged. The
teardown 'ssh -O exit' is naturally inert because the socket never
exists on Windows.
2. scripts/install.ps1 (#83797): the installer put the whole
venv\Scripts directory on the user PATH, which contains python.exe /
pythonw.exe / pip.exe and so silently hijacked the 'python' command in
every terminal on the machine — unrelated projects started resolving
python to Hermes' runtime interpreter. Now copy only the launchers
(hermes.exe, hermes-acp.exe) into a dedicated $InstallDir\bin and put
THAT on PATH. Existing installs are migrated: the legacy venv\Scripts
entry is stripped from the user PATH on the next install/update. The
new bin dir is under $InstallDir (…\hermes-agent), which the uninstall
PATH sweep already matches via its \hermes-agent marker.
Updated the stale hermes_cli/update_cmd.py docstring that described the
old venv\Scripts-on-PATH layout.
Tests: SSH ControlMaster gating pinned both directions (multiplex on →
flags present; off → absent but BatchMode/StrictHostKeyChecking retained).
install.ps1 parses clean via the PowerShell AST parser.
* docs: update windows-native install docs for the bin\ launcher layout
CI (test_windows_native_docs) pins the docs and installer to the same
PATH layout. The #83797 fix moved the PATH entry from venv\Scripts to a
dedicated $InstallDir\bin holding only the hermes launchers, so update
the Windows-native guide to match: PATH-after-install section, the
install-steps list, the directory-layout table, the Get-Command
verification line, and the 'command not found' pitfall. Test now asserts
the bin\ layout and guards against a regression back to venv\Scripts on
PATH.
* fix: keep install.ps1 pure ASCII (PowerShell 5.1 codepage safety)
The two comments I added in the #83797 PATH-hijack fix used em-dashes,
tripping tests/test_install_ps1_ascii_only.py — Windows PowerShell 5.1
reads a BOM-less .ps1 in the system ANSI codepage (not UTF-8), so a
non-ASCII byte can misdecode into a stray quote and desync the parser
(issues #66994/#67000). Replace the em-dashes with ASCII '--'.
Sweep of open Windows issues affecting day-to-day agent operation
(explicitly excluding install/setup and locale classes):
- hermes_cli/_subprocess_compat.py: new split_command_line() — Windows-
safe command-line tokenizer (posix=False + quote stripping) so
backslash paths survive. POSIX behavior unchanged (plain shlex.split).
- hermes_cli/console_engine.py (#83934): console commands like
'sessions export C:\Users\me\out.jsonl' no longer silently mangle the
path into a relative filename in the cwd.
- agent/shell_hooks.py (#78293): hook commands with backslash paths now
spawn, resolve their script path, and pass hooks doctor instead of
reporting 'not executable'. All three shlex sites routed through the
shared splitter.
- agent/prompt_builder.py (#51755): system prompt now reports
Windows (11) on Windows 11 — platform.release() returns 10 for both;
distinguish via sys.getwindowsversion().build >= 22000.
- hermes_cli/commands.py (#42016): @ autocomplete no longer crashes the
prompt_toolkit event loop when rg emits a path on a different mount
(device paths \.\nul, other drive letters) — relpath ValueError is
skipped per-entry.
- tools/browser_use_cli.py (#83884): screenshot-path detection now
matches Windows drive-letter paths (C:\... and C:/...) in addition to
POSIX; Browser Use screenshots attach on Windows.
- tools/skills_hub.py + tools/skills_guard.py (#62310): the two 'MUST
stay symmetric' skill content hashes actually agree on Windows now.
Bundle keys are normalized to POSIX separators before hashing, and the
disk digest sorts by rel-posix STRING (case-sensitive) instead of Path
objects (case-insensitive on Windows). Fixes permanent false-positive
update_available for every installed skill.
Tests: tests/tools/test_windows_agent_loop_papercuts.py — 16 cases
covering each fix, including a disk-vs-bundle hash symmetry check built
with native Windows separators and a mixed-case filename.
* fix: make verify_on_stop opt-in everywhere (default False, not auto)
The verify-on-stop nudge was already judged more noise than signal: the
v31 migration flips existing installs off, the v32 migration catches the
baked-in literal-true population, and the docs tell users to 'treat off
as the effective default and opt in explicitly'. But DEFAULT_CONFIG still
shipped the "auto" sentinel, so exactly one population kept getting the
nudges: fresh installs (and any config missing the key), where "auto"
resolves ON for CLI/TUI/desktop surfaces. Live symptom: repeated
'[System: You edited code ... run verification]' interruptions the user
never asked for and had to hunt down in source to disable.
- DEFAULT_CONFIG: agent.verify_on_stop "auto" -> False (opt-in).
- verify_on_stop_enabled(): missing/unrecognized value now falls back
OFF instead of surface-aware; explicit "auto" still selects the
legacy surface-aware behavior, explicit bools unchanged, and the
HERMES_VERIFY_ON_STOP env override is untouched.
- No migration needed: v31/v32 already normalized existing installs,
and this only changes the merged default for configs without the key.
- Docs updated; default-path E2E test now asserts OFF, plus a new
missing-value regression test. Also added the standard win32 skip
marker to the symlink-based temp-dir test (pre-existing Windows
failure, same class as tests/cron/test_cron_script.py).
* test: update config goldens — verify_on_stop=False is now stripped as default
With the DEFAULT_CONFIG flip to False, the migration-write invariant
(_persist_migration / save_config strip_defaults) no longer materialises
verify_on_stop: false to disk unless the user explicitly set the key:
- V20 floor fixture (agent: {} on disk): v31's write is stripped —
agent stays {} and load_config() supplies False at read time.
- V12 floor fixture (explicit verify_on_stop: true on disk): the key is
a user-set path, so the v32 flip stays materialised as false.
- Partial-write and _persist_migration regressions now assert the key is
absent from disk and (for the merge case) that the merged view still
resolves False.
Behavior verified with a one-shot migrate_config run against both
fixture shapes.
* fix(gateway): pass live adapters to cron fire webhook's fire_due
The Chronos fire webhook (/api/cron/fire) called
provider.fire_due(job_id, adapters=None, loop=loop), so every
externally-triggered fire delivered through the standalone path even
with a live gateway in-process. E2EE platforms and relay-fronted
logical platforms (whose ONLY send path is the live relay adapter — no
native credential exists on the box) failed every external fire with
"platform 'X' not configured/enabled", while the same job delivered
fine under the built-in ticker (gateway/run.py passes runner.adapters).
Resolve the runner (self.gateway_runner → app['gateway_runner'] →
_gateway_runner_ref(), the same chain the drain check uses) and forward
its adapters. No runner → adapters=None, preserving the historical
standalone path byte-identically.
Note: does not by itself fix Fly-hosted scale-to-zero deployments where
NAS's callback lands on the DASHBOARD process (internal_port 9119) —
_fire_cron_job_for_profile there has no gateway runner in-process. That
topology needs a separate fire handoff (design pending).
* fix(cron): dashboard forwards Chronos fires to the gateway (503 when unreachable)
The dashboard's /api/cron/fire executed cron jobs in the DASHBOARD
process via _fire_cron_job_for_profile with adapters=None. On hosted
deployments (Fly proxy exposes only the dashboard's port) that made
every managed-cron fire deliver through the standalone send path, which
cannot serve relay-fronted logical platforms (their only sender is the
live relay adapter in the gateway process — no native credential exists
on the box) or E2EE rooms. It also ran the whole agent turn inside the
dashboard: wrong process for memory/session ownership and fire-claim
attribution.
Restore the invariant that the GATEWAY owns cron execution:
- Dashboard route: after verifying the NAS JWT and resolving the job's
profile, FORWARD the fire to the gateway api_server's own
/api/cron/fire on loopback, NAS bearer preserved (the gateway
re-verifies the JWT — defense in depth, no new trust link), and pass
the gateway's response through. Gateway unreachable → 503 so NAS
retries per the Chronos contract (non-2xx = retryable; the store CAS
de-dupes the eventual double fire). Deliberately NO local-execution
fallback.
- Endpoint resolution mirrors gateway/config.py's api_server load order
per target profile (config.yaml extra.port → API_SERVER_PORT from
process env or the profile's .env → 8642), with /p/<profile>/ prefix
routing under multiplex.
- docker/stage2-hook.sh: generate a strong API_SERVER_KEY into .env on
first boot when absent (never overwrites an operator value), so the
loopback api_server passes its startup guard on hosted images. The
fire route itself is NAS-JWT-authed; the key gates the rest of the
api_server surface. The listener binds 127.0.0.1 by default and the
Fly service exposes only the dashboard port.
- _fire_cron_job_for_profile kept but deprecated (late-binding seam
compatibility); no route calls it.
- docs/chronos-managed-cron-contract.md: document the two-hop inbound
topology and the 503-retry semantics.
Depends on the previous commit (fire webhook passes live adapters to
fire_due) — together they make NAS→dashboard→gateway fires deliver over
relay end to end.
* fix(cron): read the profile api_server port via the canonical config loader
CI guard test_config_read_guard flagged the new _gateway_fire_endpoint
for a raw yaml.safe_load of the profile's config.yaml — the exact drift
class the guard exists to kill (raw reads miss the managed-scope
overlay, ${ENV_VAR} expansion, and root-model normalization).
Read through load_config() under a HERMES_HOME override scoped to the
target profile instead (the same pattern the deprecated
_fire_cron_job_for_profile uses for its store scope), and pull the port
with cfg_get. Test updated to stub load_config rather than write a raw
config.yaml.
* fix(gateway): only messaging platforms count for the scale-to-zero arm gate
The stage2 hook now generates API_SERVER_KEY for every Docker container,
and key presence force-enables the api_server platform. The scale-to-zero
arm gate counted every enabled platform, so the loopback api_server
listener made messaging_is_relay_only_or_absent False on every hosted
instance — silently disarming the feature (the not-armed log would show
enabled platforms=['relay','api_server']).
The arm gate and the not-armed logger now share one helper that filters
to enabled MESSAGING platforms, excluding LOCAL/API_SERVER/WEBHOOK —
the same non-messaging exclusion set _connect_platforms already uses.
A genuinely enabled direct-socket platform (Discord/Telegram) still
disarms. Two of the three new tests fail without this fix.
The Browser Use CLI became the default browser backend, but nothing
provisioned it: users without uv/uvx (field report from DongyangHe on
macOS) silently fell back to the built-in browser tools with no notice.
- install_cli() in tools/browser_use_cli.py: uv tool install browser-use
via the managed uv (bootstrapped on demand), linked into
$HERMES_HOME/bin (UV_TOOL_BIN_DIR)
- _find_cli() now also probes $HERMES_HOME/bin for browser-use/uvx —
Hermes' managed uv is not on the user's PATH
- hermes tools post_setup actually installs (Camofox standard) instead
of printing instructions
- install.sh / install.ps1 provision the CLI at install time
(best-effort, non-fatal, honors --skip-browser)
- CLI startup shows a one-line notice (24h rate-limited) when the
default backend downgraded to the built-in tools
The custom-endpoint REST handlers ran bare load_config/save_config, so
every add/activate/delete landed in the process-level default profile
regardless of which profile the desktop settings UI was targeting. A
provider added under a non-default profile silently went to default:
visible only in default-bound sessions, absent everywhere else, and
un-addable to another profile without hand-editing its config.yaml.
Scope all four handlers (list/upsert/activate/delete) to the requested
profile via _config_profile_scope, matching /api/config, and spread the
active profile into the four hermes.ts wrappers alongside their existing
validateCustomEndpoint sibling.
An unreadable profile dir made (entry / '.env').exists() raise
PermissionError out of the sidebar fallback, 500ing /api/profiles.
Found by hostile fixture during live E2E of the scandir conversion.
Two-part fix for the dashboard fd exhaustion reported in #81547:
1. Raise RLIMIT_NOFILE soft limit on startup (before uvicorn binds).
macOS defaults to 256 for LaunchAgent processes — too tight for the
dashboard which opens 3 fds (db+wal+shm) per SessionDB per request
across all profiles. After days of polling the soft limit exhausts
and every os.listdir/open raises OSError [Errno 24]. The helper raises
to the hard limit (or minimum 4096), matching the reporter's ulimit
workaround. No-op on Windows (no resource module).
2. Replace bare Path.iterdir() with context-managed os.scandir() in four
dashboard hot paths: _fallback_profile_dicts, file manager list,
checkpoint listing, and plugin discovery. iterdir() returns a
generator that holds an open directory fd until fully consumed; if
an exception interrupts iteration the fd leaks. os.scandir() is an
explicit context manager that guarantees close on exit, following
the same idiom already used in /api/fs/list.
Tests: 6 passed, 3 skipped (resource-module tests skip on Windows).
_spawn_gateway_restart() now calls _reap_unsupervised_gateway_orphans()
before spawning a new `hermes gateway restart` child. On desktop-app
restart the old serve exits but its gateway child gets reparented to
launchd (PPID=1) and keeps its platform connection alive. The new
serve then spawns a fresh gateway, resulting in two live gateways
racing the same connection.
The reap was already implemented for the CLI restart path (#75936) but
the dashboard's _spawn_gateway_restart path was not covered.
Fixes#77276
os.kill(pid, 0) sends CTRL_C_EVENT on Windows (bpo-14484). The reap path
is POSIX-only, but the blocking lint rejects the pattern repo-wide and
psutil is a core dependency.
