Browser login against openrouter.ai/auth (S256 PKCE, bind-first OS-assigned loopback port,
POST /api/v1/auth/keys code exchange) that stores the minted key as a plain api_key pool entry
with source manual:openrouter_pkce, so it rotates and resolves exactly like a pasted key.
Salvaged from #102639 (nyx573) onto the facade+siblings layout: the flow lives in the new
auth_openrouter sibling and rides the shared loopback helpers instead of appending to the
auth.py facade; auth_commands gains a table row rather than a provider branch. OpenRouter echoes
no `state`, so the CSRF nonce rides in the callback path (a redirect that guesses the port but not
the nonce is a 404 and never reaches the exchange); remote/SSH sessions use OpenRouter's
documented headless paste-the-code mode instead of an unreachable loopback listener. OpenRouter
keeps its API-key default when --type is omitted so the documented `--api-key` form is unchanged.
* feat(auth): Nous free tier core: anonymous identity minted on first use, welcome inference, shared-store scoping
A fresh install with no provider sets up a free Nous identity (anonymous auth method of the nous
provider) instead of forcing the setup wizard. The identity is persisted through the same path a
real login uses, so the resolver ladder is unchanged. Two seams differ: token acquisition
re-exchanges the anon credential (no refresh token), and routing pins the welcome host's single
model nous/welcome. One identity per shared store; nous.guest: false turns the free tier off.
* test(auth): free tier core contracts: lifecycle, resolver precedence, exchange seam, model pin
* docs(user-guide): free tier and signing in
New page explaining what a fresh install gets before any key or sign-in
(free inference on nous/welcome plus connectors), how the free tier
coexists with a user's own API key, how to sign in with hermes auth
upgrade and keep connectors, how to turn the free tier off with
nous.guest, what hermes logout does in each state, a troubleshooting
table, and a plain privacy note. Wired into the Using Hermes sidebar.
* fix(auth): logout leaves the free tier alone and clears the shared store for a real Nous account
Logging out of the free tier is a no-op: it is not a login, so nothing is cleared and the user
is told they were never signed in. Logging out of a real Nous account now also clears the
cross-profile store, so a profile logout is not silently re-adopted on the next boot.
* fix(model): switching off the free tier points at signing in, never hops providers
* Name the free tier in the gateway startup notice and tell explicit-provider installs about it once
* Render the Nous free tier as free tier on auth status, auth list, hermes status and portal info, short-circuit billing copy for it, and skip the keepalive when there is no refresh token
* fix(auth): free tier is set up where nothing is configured: resolver last rung and first-run check
Both the provider resolver's terminal rung and the CLI first-run check now try to set up the free
tier before declaring nothing configured. On a fresh install the first command lands in chat on
nous/welcome; a failed setup still falls through to the existing guidance.
* Add hermes auth upgrade: sign the free tier into a Nous account while keeping its connectors
The device-code flow runs as usual, with a promotion intent registered on the portal between the
code request and the token poll so the account that approves the code inherits the free tier's
connectors. The promotion status decides the outcome: only a completed one is followed by the
token grant, which is persisted over the free-tier singleton and the shared store. Declined,
superseded, retired and busy outcomes each print their own plain copy, and a retired identity is
cleared so the next use sets up a fresh one. User-facing text never names the free tier's internals.
* Show the Nous free tier as one picker row with nous/welcome and hide it when nous.guest is off
* fix(auth): upgrade opens the consent page for this sign-in; one mint attempt per process; forced free tier wins the first-run check
The browser leg of hermes auth upgrade now prints and opens the promotion claim URL with the
claim code, not the generic device page. A failed mint is attempted once per process so several
bootstrap sites cannot hit a closed gate or a 429 twice; a retired credential resets that so
re-minting still happens. HERMES_FORCE_GUEST is honoured ahead of the first-run provider check.
* fix(auth): pin the welcome model on the selected route, not on profile state; background setup retries after a failure
A credential-pool entry can select a paid Nous key while the profile singleton is still the free
tier. The model pin now keys on the resolved endpoint (welcome host) in agent init and /model, and
the pin in model normalization is removed since it had no route to look at. A failed background
identity setup releases its latch so a later attempt in the same process can try again.
* fix(auth): decide the Nous model together with the route on every credential-pool swap
The credential pool can move a Nous agent between the welcome host and the portal host after
init. One helper, pin_model_for_route, now runs at init and inside every pool swap, so the
welcome host always carries nous/welcome and a paid endpoint always keeps the caller's model.
* fix(auth): apply the route model policy on every wire mode during a pool swap; release the setup latch if the thread cannot start
* fix(auth): free-tier lifecycle takes profile then shared lock, reconciles with the shared store, persists the mint before exchanging, and clears only the identity that died
The shared store is the identity of record for a Hermes root: a profile holding a stale free-tier
identity adopts a sibling's newer sign-in instead of keeping the guest, and never overwrites the
shared account. Locks are taken in the documented order (profile, then shared). A minted credential
is stored as soon as create succeeds, so a rate-limited or timed-out exchange does not lose it and
trigger a second mint. Retiring a dead credential removes only that credential from both stores.
Guest exchange uses the resolver's canonical portal URL.
* fix(auth): a credential rotation never rewrites the conversation model; connectors honour the off switch and replace a retired free-tier credential
The welcome host serves one model, so a rotation onto it is refused for any conversation on another
model instead of silently switching that conversation to nous/welcome (the model pin applies only
when a route is first chosen). The connector token path now treats the free tier as absent when
nous.guest is false, including cached tokens, and shares the one dead-credential rule with
inference: a retired identity is replaced once rather than returning its stale token.
* fix(auth): plain login never imports the free tier as OAuth credentials; the gateway startup line reads persisted state only
A free-tier identity in the shared store is not an OAuth credential to offer for import; a real
sign-in replaces it. The gateway's startup notice now answers provider precedence from persisted
state (no token refresh at boot), so an expired free-tier token cannot stall the online message.
The compat sweep dropped the auth-facade re-export of _mark_qwen_oauth_active
while hermes_cli/auth_commands.py still reached it through the auth_mod module
alias, so every 'hermes auth add qwen' died with AttributeError on this branch.
Import it from hermes_cli/auth_qwen where it now lives. Module-alias attribute
reads dodge import-time checks; the sweep in the PR thread found this to be the
only production hit of that class.
Reported-by: yoniebans (PR #102117 review)
No runtime consumer read the proxy (terminal_tool/environments call is_interrupted()/set_interrupt()
directly); its only users were tests patching tools.interrupt._interrupt_event, which had no effect on
the code under test. tools/terminal_tool.py's own re-export of the name is owned by another worker.
The clone-strip and root-write-through in the previous commit stop NEW forks
but leave installs that forked before upgrading in the broken state: each
profile keeps its own copy of the root grant, whichever profile rotated last
holds the only live refresh token, and root plus every sibling still hit
invalid_grant on their next refresh. The PR body asked those users to
re-auth at root and hand-edit profiles/*/auth.json; this makes it automatic.
`heal_forked_single_use_oauth_grants(provider)` (hermes_cli/auth.py) runs at
the top of a profile's `load_pool()` for SINGLE_USE_REFRESH_POOL_PROVIDERS.
Under the profile lock then the root lock it matches each profile OAuth row
to its root counterpart by lineage — same pool id (preserved by both fork
paths), same JWT account identity, same token material, else same provider +
same client (Anthropic pkce grants carry no claims) — keeps the copy with the
freshest rotation (`expires_at_ms` / `last_refresh` / JWT exp), writes it into
ROOT when root's is older, and strips the profile copy (pool rows, the
`providers.<id>` device-code block for Codex/xAI, and a profile-local
`.anthropic_oauth.json`) so the profile borrows root from then on. Root's
singleton and its hermes_pkce row are kept in step so root's own re-seed
cannot resurrect the spent pair.
Guarantees: idempotent (mtime-keyed clean mark skips the locked scan on the
per-call hot path); one INFO line per healed profile; API-key rows untouched;
a row with no root counterpart (root lost its grant, or an independent
account whose claims differ) is never deleted; only the two auth.json files
the root fallback already reads are touched — no environ/secret-scope reads.
`hermes auth list` / `hermes auth status <provider>` print the heal note.
Live repro (real imports, temp root + forge/atlas each holding a pre-fix
verbatim copy, forge already rotated RT0->RT1 into its own file, fake
single-use token endpoint): before — atlas None, forge AT2 (only in forge),
root None; server log 4x REUSE of spent RT0. After — forge's load heals to
root and rotates there, atlas and root select AT2, profiles/*/auth.json hold
no anthropic rows, server log exactly one ROTATE and zero REUSE.
Widens #90327's line_input() to the whole bug class: all 46 bare input()
free-text prompt sites across the setup wizards (model_setup_flows, setup,
config, gateway, auth, auth_commands, plugins_cmd, skills_hub, bundles,
setup_whatsapp_cloud, main) now route through line_input(), and the shared
cli_output.prompt() / setup.prompt() helpers do too — so every CLI wizard
gets cursor editing, not just the custom model prompt.
Redirected stdin and missing prompt_toolkit keep builtin input() behavior.
E2E: real PTY with raw escape bytes through line_input, cli_output.prompt,
and setup.prompt (arrows + Ctrl+A/E edit correctly); redirected-stdin
fallback verified.
Keep each xAI OAuth auth-add login as an independent manual device-code pool entry and recognize xAI personal-team spending-limit 403 responses as billing exhaustion. Preserve the structured top-level error message so the failed credential is quarantined and the next healthy account is selected without attempting a pointless token refresh.
Route direct xAI HTTP consumers through the credential pool as well. Proactive and 401-reactive refreshes update the exact issuing manual entry, preserve validated xAI base URL overrides, and serialize single-use refresh-token rotation across concurrent pool instances.
ruff check --fix --select F541 . on current main. Pure prefix removals;
adjacent-string concatenations keep the f only on interpolating fragments.
No string content or live placeholder altered.
Replace the loopback/PKCE-callback server and manual-paste fallback with
the RFC 8628 device-code flow as the only xAI Grok OAuth login path. The
flow works in headless/SSH/container sessions with no 127.0.0.1 listener,
shrinking the local attack surface.
- Poll the token endpoint with server-provided interval, honoring
slow_down and expires_in; store tokens with auth_mode
oauth_device_code.
- Adaptive proactive refresh skew for short-lived device-code JWTs;
rotated tokens sync back to auth.json, the global root store, and the
credential pool (no refresh-token replay).
- Clear source suppression on successful re-login (CLI + dashboard) and
drop the duplicate dashboard pool entry so exactly one seeded
device_code entry exists.
- Use the shared device_code source name for consistency with the
nous/codex device-code providers.
- Desktop: remove the loopback OAuth flow states and dead type variants;
pkce providers' sign-in URL selection is unchanged.
- Docs (EN + zh-Hans) rewritten for device-code login; drop the deleted
--manual-paste flag from documented commands.
* feat(providers): remove google-gemini-cli + google-antigravity OAuth providers
Google now actively bans accounts for third-party tools that piggyback on
Gemini CLI / Antigravity / Code Assist OAuth, and because abuse prevention
sits at a backend layer the ban can extend to the entire Google account
(Gmail/Drive), with a second violation being permanent.
Ref: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/discussions/20632
Removes both OAuth inference providers entirely (modules, provider profiles,
auth/runtime/config/models wiring, the /gquota Code Assist quota command,
the antigravity-cli optional skill, desktop + docs surface in en + zh-Hans).
The API-key 'gemini' provider (GOOGLE_API_KEY/GEMINI_API_KEY against
generativelanguage.googleapis.com) is unaffected and stays fully supported.
* fix(skills): keep the antigravity-cli skill — only the OAuth provider is removed
The antigravity-cli optional skill orchestrates the external `agy` binary as
a coding-agent tool via the terminal tool — it does NOT wrap Hermes inference
through the banned google-antigravity OAuth provider, so it carries none of
the account-ban risk that motivated removing that provider. Restore the skill,
its docs page, the sidebar entry, and the optional-skills catalog row. The
google-antigravity / google-gemini-cli inference providers stay fully removed.
hermes auth add openai-codex now creates an independent
manual:device_code pool entry per account instead of routing through
the singleton _save_codex_tokens save path, which collapsed every
added account into the latest login (the second add overwrote the
first account's singleton-mirrored device_code entry). This is the
add-path half of #39236; PR #39243 (already on this branch) fixes the
re-auth half.
manual:device_code entries refresh from their own token pair
(_sync_codex_entry_from_auth_store only adopts the singleton for
source=="device_code"), so they need no providers.openai-codex
shadow. Adding the first credential marks openai-codex active (the
singleton path did this implicitly) so the setup wizard's
get_active_provider() check still passes; subsequent adds leave the
active provider untouched.
Adds SOURCE_MANUAL_DEVICE_CODE constant and a regression test that two
distinct accounts keep distinct token pairs. Updates two existing add
tests to the pool-only behavior.

hermes auth add qwen-oauth called pool.add_entry() but never wrote to

where it would become stale.

Use _save_xai_oauth_tokens() — the canonical path already called from the
hermes model xAI login flow — which writes providers["xai-oauth"]["tokens"]
(setting active_provider) and lets _seed_from_singletons seed the pool with
a "loopback_pkce" entry on the next load_pool() call.

* fix(desktop): codex OAuth onboarding now resolves on fresh install
The desktop codex device-code worker persisted tokens with a hand-rolled
pool.add_entry(), writing only credential_pool.openai-codex. It never set
active_provider, so on a fresh install the onboarding setup.runtime_check
resolved provider "auto", couldn't detect the Codex OAuth session, and raised
"No inference provider configured" — while setup.status (which sniffs the pool)
reported configured. The disagreement surfaced as the onboarding banner
"Connected, but Hermes still cannot resolve a usable provider."
Use the canonical _save_codex_tokens() instead, matching the CLI's
`hermes auth add openai-codex` path and the Nous/MiniMax dashboard workers.
It writes the providers.openai-codex singleton (setting active_provider) and
syncs the pool.
* fix(auth): align Codex OAuth persistence paths
Ensure desktop and CLI Codex OAuth logins both write the canonical provider state so fresh installs resolve a usable runtime provider.

After the legacy session-key path was removed, two parameters became dead
surface on the Nous runtime-resolution chain:
- min_key_ttl_seconds: del'd inside refresh_nous_oauth_pure and pass-through /
telemetry-only in refresh_nous_oauth_from_state, _try_import_shared_nous_state,
_nous_device_code_login, and resolve_nous_runtime_credentials. It controlled the
now-deleted agent-key mint TTL and drives no behavior.
- inference_auth_mode: with the legacy mode gone, AUTO and FRESH are behaviorally
identical; the value only fed _normalize_nous_inference_auth_mode validation and
oauth trace output, never a branch.
Removing inference_auth_mode orphaned its whole supporting cluster
(NOUS_INFERENCE_AUTH_MODE_AUTO/FRESH, NOUS_INFERENCE_AUTH_MODES,
_normalize_nous_inference_auth_mode), and dropping min_key_ttl_seconds orphaned
DEFAULT_AGENT_KEY_MIN_TTL_SECONDS — all deleted here.
Updated every caller (run_agent, auxiliary_client, credential_pool, proxy adapter,
runtime_provider, web_server, main, auth_commands, setup) and pruned the matching
test kwargs. Deleted two tests that exercised the removed surface
(test_legacy_auth_mode_is_rejected, test_try_refresh_..._accepts_explicit_auth_mode).
No behavior change: net -134 LOC of dead code.
Register the new ``--manual-paste`` flag on both entry points and
thread it through to the xAI loopback login:
* ``hermes auth add xai-oauth --manual-paste`` — pool-add path,
forwarded inside ``auth_commands.handle_auth_add``.
* ``hermes model --manual-paste`` — model-picker path, forwarded
by ``_model_flow_xai_oauth`` into the synthetic ``argparse.Namespace``
it passes to ``_login_xai_oauth``. The picker also now forwards
``--no-browser`` and ``--timeout`` for consistency (previously
hardcoded to defaults regardless of CLI flags).
Help text on both flags points at #26923 and names the
browser-only remote consoles (Cloud Shell, Codespaces, EC2
Instance Connect) so users searching ``hermes --help`` can find
the workaround.
Adds a new authentication provider that lets SuperGrok subscribers sign
in to Hermes with their xAI account via the standard OAuth 2.0 PKCE
loopback flow, instead of pasting a raw API key from console.x.ai.
Highlights
----------
* OAuth 2.0 PKCE loopback login against accounts.x.ai with discovery,
state/nonce, and a strict CORS-origin allowlist on the callback.
* Authorize URL carries `plan=generic` (required for non-allowlisted
loopback clients) and `referrer=hermes-agent` for best-effort
attribution in xAI's OAuth server logs.
* Token storage in `auth.json` with file-locked atomic writes; JWT
`exp`-based expiry detection with skew; refresh-token rotation
synced both ways between the singleton store and the credential
pool so multi-process / multi-profile setups don't tear each other's
refresh tokens.
* Reactive 401 retry: on a 401 from the xAI Responses API, the agent
refreshes the token, swaps it back into `self.api_key`, and retries
the call once. Guarded against silent account swaps when the active
key was sourced from a different (manual) pool entry.
* Auxiliary tasks (curator, vision, embeddings, etc.) route through a
dedicated xAI Responses-mode auxiliary client instead of falling back
to OpenRouter billing.
* Direct HTTP tools (`tools/xai_http.py`, transcription, TTS, image-gen
plugin) resolve credentials through a unified runtime → singleton →
env-var fallback chain so xai-oauth users get them for free.
* `hermes auth add xai-oauth` and `hermes auth remove xai-oauth N` are
wired through the standard auth-commands surface; remove cleans up
the singleton loopback_pkce entry so it doesn't silently reinstate.
* `hermes model` provider picker shows
"xAI Grok OAuth (SuperGrok Subscription)" and the model-flow falls
back to pool credentials when the singleton is missing.
Hardening
---------
* Discovery and refresh responses validate the returned
`token_endpoint` host against the same `*.x.ai` allowlist as the
authorization endpoint, blocking MITM persistence of a hostile
endpoint.
* Discovery / refresh / token-exchange `response.json()` calls are
wrapped to raise typed `AuthError` on malformed bodies (captive
portals, proxy error pages) instead of leaking JSONDecodeError
tracebacks.
* `prompt_cache_key` is routed through `extra_body` on the codex
transport (sending it as a top-level kwarg trips xAI's SDK with a
TypeError).
* Credential-pool sync-back preserves `active_provider` so refreshing
an OAuth entry doesn't silently flip the active provider out from
under the running agent.
Testing
-------
* New `tests/hermes_cli/test_auth_xai_oauth_provider.py` (~63 tests)
covers JWT expiry, OAuth URL params (plan + referrer), CORS origins,
redirect URI validation, singleton↔pool sync, concurrency races,
refresh error paths, runtime resolution, and malformed-JSON guards.
* Extended `test_credential_pool.py`, `test_codex_transport.py`, and
`test_run_agent_codex_responses.py` cover the pool sync-back,
`extra_body` routing, and 401 reactive refresh paths.
* 165 tests passing on this branch via `scripts/run_tests.sh`.
Handle MiniMax OAuth expiry values consistently across CLI and dashboard
flows, fix CLI status/add behavior, and force pooled OAuth runtime
requests through Anthropic Messages.
- web_server._minimax_poller: parse expired_in via the shared resolver
so unix-ms absolute timestamps stop landing as TTL seconds and crashing
with 'year 583911 is out of range' when a user connects MiniMax OAuth
from the dashboard.
- auth._minimax_oauth_login / _refresh_minimax_oauth_state: same fix on
the CLI login + refresh paths.
- auth.get_auth_status: dispatch minimax-oauth to its dedicated status
function instead of falling through.
- auth_commands.auth_add_command: 'hermes auth add minimax-oauth' now
starts the device-code login flow and persists a pool entry with the
access + refresh tokens, instead of requiring credentials to already
exist.
- runtime_provider._resolve_runtime_from_pool_entry: pin pooled
minimax-oauth credentials to anthropic_messages so a stale
model.api_mode: chat_completions can't send requests to
/anthropic/chat/completions and trigger MiniMax nginx 404s.

Replace hardcoded ~/.hermes/shared/ references with
get_default_hermes_root() / 'shared' so the cross-profile Nous auth
store lands in the correct location on every platform:
- Linux/macOS: ~/.hermes/shared/
- native Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\shared- Docker / custom HERMES_HOME: <root>/shared/
Updates _nous_shared_auth_dir(), the pytest seat-belt in
_nous_shared_store_path(), and the auth_add_command comment to match.
Previously Windows installs wrote to ~/.hermes/shared/ even though the
rest of the CLI uses %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes, so profiles couldn't see
each other's shared credential.
Mirrors the Codex auto-import UX. On successful Nous login (either
`hermes auth add nous --type oauth` or `hermes login nous`), tokens are
mirrored to `$HERMES_SHARED_AUTH_DIR/nous_auth.json` (default
`~/.hermes/shared/nous_auth.json`, outside any named profile's
HERMES_HOME). On next login in a new profile, the flow offers to import
those credentials ("Import these credentials? [Y/n]") and rehydrates via
a forced refresh+mint instead of running the full device-code flow.
Runtime refresh in any profile syncs the rotated refresh_token back to
the shared store so sibling profiles don't hit stale-token fallback
after rotation.
The volatile 24h agent_key is NOT persisted to the shared store —
only the long-lived OAuth tokens are cross-profile useful.
- `HERMES_SHARED_AUTH_DIR` env var for tests + custom layouts
- Pytest seat belt mirrors the existing `_auth_file_path` guard so
forgetting to redirect the store in a test fails loudly
- File mode 0600 where platform supports it
- Runtime credential resolution is unchanged — shared store is only
consulted during the login flow, so profile isolation at runtime is
preserved
- Stale refresh_token + portal-down cases gracefully fall back to
device-code
Addresses a user report from Mike Nguyen: running
`hermes --profile <name> auth add nous --type oauth` for every new
profile is unnecessary friction now that Codex has a shared-import
flow via `~/.codex/auth.json`.
Every credential source Hermes reads from now behaves identically on
`hermes auth remove`: the pool entry stays gone across fresh load_pool()
calls, even when the underlying external state (env var, OAuth file,
auth.json block, config entry) is still present.
Before this, auth_remove_command was a 110-line if/elif with five
special cases, and three more sources (qwen-cli, copilot, custom
config) had no removal handler at all — their pool entries silently
resurrected on the next invocation. Even the handled cases diverged:
codex suppressed, anthropic deleted-without-suppressing, nous cleared
without suppressing. Each new provider added a new gap.
What's new:
agent/credential_sources.py — RemovalStep registry, one entry per
source (env, claude_code, hermes_pkce, nous device_code, codex
device_code, qwen-cli, copilot gh_cli + env vars, custom config).
auth_remove_command dispatches uniformly via find_removal_step().
Changes elsewhere:
agent/credential_pool.py — every upsert in _seed_from_env,
_seed_from_singletons, and _seed_custom_pool now gates on
is_source_suppressed(provider, source) via a shared helper.
hermes_cli/auth_commands.py — auth_remove_command reduced to 25
lines of dispatch; auth_add_command now clears ALL suppressions for
the provider on re-add (was env:* only).
Copilot is special: the same token is seeded twice (gh_cli via
_seed_from_singletons + env:<VAR> via _seed_from_env), so removing one
entry without suppressing the other variants lets the duplicate
resurrect. The copilot RemovalStep suppresses gh_cli + all three env
variants (COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN, GH_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN) at once.
Tests: 11 new unit tests + 4059 existing pass. 12 E2E scenarios cover
every source in isolated HERMES_HOME with simulated fresh processes.
Removing an env-seeded credential only cleared ~/.hermes/.env and the
current process's os.environ, leaving shell-exported vars (shell profile,
systemd EnvironmentFile, launchd plist) to resurrect the entry on the
next load_pool() call. This matched the pre-#11485 codex behaviour.
Now we suppress env:<VAR> in auth.json on remove, gate _seed_from_env()
behind is_source_suppressed(), clear env:* suppressions on auth add,
and print a diagnostic pointing at the shell when the var lives there.
Applies to every env:* seeded credential (xai, deepseek, moonshot, zai,
nvidia, openrouter, anthropic, etc.), not just xai.
Reported by @teknium1 from community user 'Artificial Brain' — couldn't
remove their xAI key via hermes auth remove.
persist_nous_credentials() now accepts an optional label kwarg which
gets embedded in providers.nous under the 'label' key.
_seed_from_singletons() prefers the embedded label over the
auto-derived label_from_token() fingerprint when materialising the
pool entry, so re-seeding on every load_pool('nous') preserves the
user's chosen label.
auth_commands.py threads --label through to the helper, restoring
parity with how other OAuth providers (anthropic, codex, google,
qwen) honor the flag.
Tests: 4 new (embed, reseed-survives, no-label fallback, end-to-end
through auth_add_command). All 390 nous/auth/credential_pool tests
pass.
Review feedback on the original commit: the helper wrote a pool entry
with source `manual:device_code` while `_seed_from_singletons()` upserts
with `device_code` (no `manual:` prefix), so the pool grew a duplicate
row on every `load_pool()` after login.
Normalise: the helper now writes `providers.nous` and delegates the pool
write entirely to `_seed_from_singletons()` via a follow-up
`load_pool()` call. The canonical source is `device_code`; the helper
never materialises a parallel `manual:device_code` entry.
- `persist_nous_credentials()` loses its `label` and `source` kwargs —
both are now derived by the seed path from the singleton state.
- CLI and web dashboard call sites simplified accordingly.
- New test `test_persist_nous_credentials_idempotent_no_duplicate_pool_entries`
asserts that two consecutive persists leave exactly one pool row and
no stray `manual:` entries.
- Existing `test_auth_add_nous_oauth_persists_pool_entry` updated to
assert the canonical source and single-entry invariant.

`hermes auth add nous --type oauth` only wrote credential_pool.nous,
leaving providers.nous empty. When the Nous agent_key's 24h TTL expired,
run_agent.py's 401-recovery path called resolve_nous_runtime_credentials
(which reads providers.nous), got AuthError "Hermes is not logged into
Nous Portal", caught it as logger.debug (suppressed at INFO level), and
the agent died with "Non-retryable client error" — no signal to the
user that recovery even tried.
Introduce persist_nous_credentials() as the single source of truth for
Nous device-code login persistence. Both auth_commands (CLI) and
web_server (dashboard) now route through it, so pool and providers
stay in sync at write time.
Why: CLI-provisioned profiles couldn't recover from agent_key expiry,
producing silent daily outages 24h after first login. PR #6856/#6869
addressed adjacent issues but assumed providers.nous was populated;
this one wasn't being written.

* feat(skills): add 'hermes skills reset' to un-stick bundled skills
When a user edits a bundled skill, sync flags it as user_modified and
skips it forever. The problem: if the user later tries to undo the edit
by copying the current bundled version back into ~/.hermes/skills/, the
manifest still holds the old origin hash from the last successful
sync, so the fresh bundled hash still doesn't match and the skill stays
stuck as user_modified.
Adds an escape hatch for this case.
hermes skills reset <name>
Drops the skill's entry from ~/.hermes/skills/.bundled_manifest and
re-baselines against the user's current copy. Future 'hermes update'
runs accept upstream changes again. Non-destructive.
hermes skills reset <name> --restore
Also deletes the user's copy and re-copies the bundled version.
Use when you want the pristine upstream skill back.
Also available as /skills reset in chat.
- tools/skills_sync.py: new reset_bundled_skill(name, restore=False)
- hermes_cli/skills_hub.py: do_reset() + wired into skills_command and
handle_skills_slash; added to the slash /skills help panel
- hermes_cli/main.py: argparse entry for 'hermes skills reset'
- tests/tools/test_skills_sync.py: 5 new tests covering the stuck-flag
repro, --restore, unknown-skill error, upstream-removed-skill, and
no-op on already-clean state

* fix(auth): codex auth remove no longer silently undone by auto-import
'hermes auth remove openai-codex' appeared to succeed but the credential
reappeared on the next command. Two compounding bugs:
1. _seed_from_singletons() for openai-codex unconditionally re-imports
tokens from ~/.codex/auth.json whenever the Hermes auth store is
empty (by design — the Codex CLI and Hermes share that file). There
was no suppression check, unlike the claude_code seed path.
2. auth_remove_command's cleanup branch only matched
removed.source == 'device_code' exactly. Entries added via
'hermes auth add openai-codex' have source 'manual:device_code', so
for those the Hermes auth store's providers['openai-codex'] state was
never cleared on remove — the next load_pool() re-seeded straight
from there.
Net effect: there was no way to make a codex removal stick short of
manually editing both ~/.hermes/auth.json and ~/.codex/auth.json before
opening Hermes again.
Fix:
- Add unsuppress_credential_source() helper (mirrors
suppress_credential_source()).
- Gate the openai-codex branch in _seed_from_singletons() with
is_source_suppressed(), matching the claude_code pattern.
- Broaden auth_remove_command's codex match to handle both
'device_code' and 'manual:device_code' (via endswith check), always
call suppress_credential_source(), and print guidance about the
unchanged ~/.codex/auth.json file.
- Clear the suppression marker in auth_add_command's openai-codex
branch so re-linking via 'hermes auth add openai-codex' works.
~/.codex/auth.json is left untouched — that's the Codex CLI's own
credential store, not ours to delete.
Tests cover: unsuppress helper behavior, remove of both source
variants, add clears suppression, seed respects suppression. E2E
verified: remove → load → add → load flow now behaves correctly.
