Maintainer ruling: no new slash command for this. `display.vim_mode: true`
in config.yaml enables vi keybindings in the composer at startup; the
NORMAL/INSERT/REPLACE status-bar label stays. Removes the CommandDef, the
handler, its dispatch-table entry and slash-command docs; documents the key
under Display Settings.
Introduces the opt-in surface for vi editing in the input composer:
- display.vim_mode config default (False, so existing users are
unaffected and prompt_toolkit keeps its standard emacs bindings)
- /vim command registered with on|off|status subcommands, matching
the established /battery and /timestamps pattern
Part of #4254.
Reverts the in-tree org skill-marketplace: hermes_wisdom package, three
model tools, CLI/gateway/desktop/dashboard/Telegram/Slack surfaces.
Later non-Wisdom work on shared files (guest onboarding i18n, dashboard
startup schema, Slack adapter, tui_gateway) is kept; Wisdom-only call
sites and config were stripped from those files.

* wisdom: add agent-led sharing core (policy, evidence, schemas, templates, delivery, weekly job, share/install flows)
- hermes_wisdom/agent_led/: policy resolution (server > local > defaults),
7-day evidence builder that excludes bundled/hub/managed skills and
dismissed/handled/recently-suggested content hashes, strict pydantic
schemas for agent output with repair-or-reject, fixed copy templates
(Share / Teammate / Published / Update / Mute), idempotent retried
delivery ledger with stale-action resolution, weekly review job,
resumable Share and Install flows.
- prompts/: candidate review, recipient recommendation, share packaging.
- tests/wisdom/test_agent_led.py: 30 tests.
* wisdom: agent-led renderers and button action dispatcher
- render.py: Telegram HTML, Slack blocks, Desktop payload; editorial name
is the emphasized line, product label stays separate.
- actions.py: resolve opaque wa:<action>:<dedup> targets via the delivery
ledger; Not now -> dismissal, Mute -> fixed options, Share -> resumable
packaging flow, Install/Update -> plan command. Never publishes/installs.
* wisdom: CLI verbs, agent_led config default, conversational catalog skill
- hermes wisdom browse/review-week/act/share/dismiss/mute (all --json).
- wisdom.agent_led config block, default enabled.
- SKILL.md rewritten so natural-language catalog questions map to the CLI
verbs, share/install flows and fixed notification templates.
* wisdom: wire agent-led weekly review into gateway tick and Telegram buttons
- gateway housekeeping tick calls maybe_run_weekly_review with a home
channel sender when a Telegram adapter is available.
- Telegram: wa: callbacks resolved through the ledger (stale-safe), mute
duration keyboard, send_wisdom_agent_recommendation rich card + fallback.

* feat(wisdom): expose safe receipt and outcome sync recovery
* wisdom: onboarding notice says detect and share, names the user's own skill
Copy review from the product owner on the first and returning
qualification notices (fixed delivery mode):
- the feature blurb now says the org enabled detection *and sharing*
- both notices say the detected skill is one the user created
- both close with an exclamation mark
Applied identically to hermes_wisdom.notice, the desktop and web i18n
strings, and the tests that assert the sentences.
* wisdom: one opener, no approval line, ask to share after the skill is shown
Product owner review of the candidate card.
- The Hermes written card now opens with the same sentence as the fixed card
("Your organisation has enabled Collective Wisdom, a feature designed to
automatically detect and share useful skills across all team members.")
instead of its own blurb, so there is one first time message.
- "Nothing is shared without your approval." removed from Telegram, Slack
and Desktop. The buttons already make the permission explicit.
- "Would you like to share?" no longer appears before the skill is named.
It is now the last line, after the skill name, description, why suggested
and the checks, and reads "Would you like to share it?" (matching the
agent led template wording).
Tests updated for the new order; proposalNotice removed from all desktop locales.
* wisdom: American spelling, organization
Product owner decision: user facing copy uses American spelling.
Changes "Your organisation" to "Your organization" in the chat notice,
the Hermes written card opener, the desktop and web strings, and the
tests that assert them. Identifiers such as nas_organisation:* and the
German and French locales are untouched.
* wisdom: candidate card copy round 4 (owner review)
Apply the product owner's round 4 copy decisions to the Hermes Collective
Wisdom candidate card on Telegram, Slack, Desktop and the shared views:
1. Hermes-written cards are titled "Hermes Collective Wisdom" instead of
the bare "Collective Wisdom".
2. The "Reusable skill ready to review" line is gone from the candidate
card (Telegram rich card and plain fallback, legacy agent-led share
template).
3. The skill name and description are labelled: "Skill name: <name>" and
"What it does: <description>" (Telegram, Slack, Desktop).
4. "Why suggested:" is now "Why others might benefit:".
5. A passing professionalism review reads "Safe to share at work ✓ (no
inappropriate content found)" with no per-check bullets and no "Pass";
a failed review reads "Needs a look before sharing at work (possible
inappropriate content)" and lists only the checks that flagged
something. Pending/unavailable wording is unchanged.
6. Telegram button toasts: "Will ask later...", "Preparing more
details...", "Sharing...".
7. Qualification reasons: "You used this skill consistently across many
days." and "You've really refined this skill."
8. prompts/wisdom_candidate_review.md asks for a compelling
editorial_name, a simple one_line_description and a compelling
why_coworkers_benefit under 300 characters; "Be concise and
convincing." becomes "Be concise and compelling: the goal is that the
user wants to share it."
Tests updated for the new strings; review_text() gains direct coverage.
* wisdom: re-apply owner copy after rebase
- Native share cards (advice_view/interaction_view): drop the approval line, ask "Would you like to share it?" as the last line after the checks
- Hermes-written completion card titled "Hermes Collective Wisdom"
- Qualification reasons use the owner wording (consistently across many days / really refined)
- American spelling (organization) in remaining English copy
- Desktop test asserts the current Share button; web test matches the returning notice
* fix(wisdom): pin reconciled Gateway and verify Unicode hash vectors

Every PLUGIN-COMPAT __getattr__ now calls hermes_cli.plugin_compat.warn_once(facade, name, target) before
resolving, emitting a HermesPluginCompatWarning (FutureWarning) once per process per name: old path, new
path, removal target. Importing a facade for its live API stays silent; only resolving a moved name warns.
COMPAT_MANIFEST.md documents the warning and how to silence it during migration.
Verified the runtime never routes through a pointer: every entry point (run_agent, cli, hermes_cli.main,
gateway.run, tui_gateway.server, web_server, model_tools + tool discovery, hermes_state, cron.scheduler,
browser_tool, mcp_tool, kanban, auth) imports clean and `hermes doctor` runs end to end with the warning
promoted to an error.
Also restores the check_compat_pointers CI step to .github/workflows/lint.yml, which a0be177aac dropped
when the compat layer was regenerated (the lint script itself was present; the workflow step was not).
hermes_cli/plugin_compat.py, tests/test_plugin_compat_warning.py and the two-line insert per facade are
part of the compat layer and go away with it.
The Sep 2026 decomposition (PR #102117) makes internal import paths a non-API: names now live in
the focused modules that define them. This commit is the ONLY thing keeping the old paths alive,
so external plugins have time to update. It is deliberately a single, unsquashed commit:
git revert <this sha>
removes every shim, stub and manifest at once on the announced date. Nothing in-tree may depend on
these pointers: scripts/check_compat_pointers.py (wired into lint.yml) fails CI if it does.
What it adds (see COMPAT_MANIFEST.md, compat_manifest.json):
- 332 facade modules get one delimited `PLUGIN-COMPAT` block appended at the end of the file
- 1,172 moved names resolved lazily via a module `__getattr__` (PEP 562) — never a top-level import,
so no import cycles; facades that already had `__getattr__` get a chained one
- 592 third-party/stdlib names the old modules used to expose, with their original import statements
- 266 public definitions that had been deleted as unused, restored byte-for-byte from the pre-decomposition
tree (+40 private helpers and 16 imports pulled in only because a restored definition needs them)
- 3 deleted modules recreated as re-export stubs (gateway/startup_watchdog, hermes_cli/observability/
relay_runtime, tools/environments/modal_utils)
- private names (`_x`) get no pointer: they were never API (3,792 skipped)
Verified: all 335 touched modules import under a fresh HERMES_HOME and every manifest name resolves;
the lint reports zero in-tree uses; ruff clean; targeted suites unchanged.
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.
For each issue anchor present in BASE 63279301bc non-test .py and absent on HEAD, the BASE comment/docstring block was re-attached at the HEAD location of the code it explained (matched by the distinctive code line / enclosing def). Sentences already covered by an existing HEAD comment were deduped; the issue number always survives. Insert-only: no code lines changed.
- Drop dead code: _telegram_effective_priority, _prioritize_telegram_menu_commands,
discord_skill_commands, _TG_NAME_LIMIT/_clamp_telegram_names compat aliases,
the empty _SLACK_PRIORITY_ALIASES pinning pass (and tests that only pinned them).
- Unify the Telegram and Discord skill collectors behind _iter_gateway_skills
(one eligibility/root-matching implementation) and _truncate_desc.
- Table-drive Telegram menu priority modes (_TELEGRAM_PRIORITY_TIERS) and the
completer's per-command dynamic completions (_DYNAMIC_COMPLETIONS).
- Unify path and @file:/@folder: directory-listing completions (_dir_completions),
command-completion construction (_short_desc), /tools candidate rows, the
Slack canonical/alias passes and the derived COMMANDS/COMMANDS_BY_CATEGORY loops.
- Compact docstrings/comments, keeping every rule, invariant and rationale.
Behavior-neutral: registry-derived outputs, menus, manifests and completions
byte-identical against origin/main on a fixture sweep.
Adds two bounded fast modes on top of the static /fast toggle, default OFF:
- `auto`: every user turn opens a `agent.fast_auto_seconds` (default 60s)
window; requests inside it carry the provider fast param, later tool-loop
requests fall back to standard pricing.
- `cold`: the same window, but only on the first turn of a session (no prior
user/assistant/tool history).
agent/fast_mode.py holds the whole policy: `begin_turn()` at the
run_conversation ingress arms `agent._fast_until`; `effective_request_overrides()`
is consumed in the ONE place request_overrides feed the transports
(build_api_kwargs), so the fast param is a per-request kwarg only. System
prompt, tools and messages are untouched — the prompt cache is preserved.
resolve_fast_mode_overrides() is now the single gate for static and bounded
modes and accepts provider/base_url: OpenRouter, Nous, Copilot, Azure,
Bedrock and custom base_urls never receive service_tier/speed (#34308's
route gating). Both existing callers (CLI turn route, gateway turn route)
and the TUI config.set path pass the route.
Surfaces: config `agent.service_tier: auto|cold` + `agent.fast_auto_seconds`,
`/fast auto|cold` in CLI, gateway (picker gains both entries), TUI/desktop
config.set; status shows the mode; web dashboard select lists the real
values. Docs: configuration.md Fast Mode section with mode table + cost note,
slash-commands, cli-config.yaml.example, locale strings for the two picker
entries.
Salvages #89991 (bounded fast modes) and #34308 (route gating).
Fixes#64785, #74730.

Removes cli_only=True from /busy CommandDef and adds gateway
handler with subcommand dispatch (status/queue/steer/interrupt).
Applied on top of latest upstream/main while preserving original
commit intent from PR #18366.
Also adds smoke tests for the gateway /busy command handler.
/bg (formerly /background, which is retired) keeps the existing semantics:
spawn a fresh, independent agent session in the background.
/btw is now its own command matching the convention other harnesses use:
ask a quick side question ABOUT the current conversation without
interrupting it. A one-shot auxiliary LLM call (main model by default,
overridable via auxiliary.side_question.* in config.yaml) answers from a
read-only transcript snapshot — the live session's history, role
alternation, and prompt cache are untouched, and the current turn keeps
running.
Surfaces wired: CLI (inline mid-run dispatch), gateway (all messengers,
busy-dispatch table + idle dispatch, i18n across all 17 locales), TUI
(prompt.btw RPC + btw.complete event), Discord native slash, relay
command manifest, desktop exec routing, docs (EN + zh-Hans).
Inference is now any args_hint without subcommands → text. Mixed is the
only remaining hint-token path. desktop= and the few argument_mode
overrides live on the registry entry; the side tables are gone. Catalog
aliases get their own dict copy. Composer tests seed the catalog so
/goal stays mixed without an overlay row.
New commands and plugins declare argument_mode and desktop availability
on CommandDef / register_command. commands.catalog ships that map so
desktop does not need a second command list.
/review takes the last 10 chat messages plus optional instructions,
spawns a full-privilege background subagent (the async delegation
rail) that investigates the referenced work (PR, code, docs), and its
complete review re-enters the spawning session as a normal
async-delegation completion the primary agent can act on.
- agent/review_engine.py: shared engine (snapshot, briefing,
auxiliary.review credential resolution, dispatch, note formatting)
- tools/delegate_tool.py: internal credentials_cfg per-call override
(never model-facing) resolved through the same credential system as
delegation.provider pins
- auxiliary.review config block (provider/model/base_url/api_key/
api_mode); provider auto + empty model = inherit the main model
- Surfaces: CLI process_command, gateway run.py dispatch +
slash_commands handler (binds the approval session key so the
completion routes back), TUI/Desktop live dispatch in
tui_gateway/server.py, CommandDef registry (+Slack /hermes-only cap)
- Docs: delegation.md section + slash-commands.md (both tables)
- Tests: 15 engine tests (sabotage-verified: credentials_cfg and
dispatch tests fail without the fix), 4 gateway handler tests
through the real async rail
The startup pruner is deliberately conservative (unattended, pre-banner),
so real installs accumulate what it can never touch: trees preserved for
untracked-only scratch, and orphaned local branches beyond the two
auto-generated prefixes it deletes. A measured multi-agent box: 35 trees /
15GB / 244 local branches, 120 of them fully merged.
New attended surface (hermes_cli/worktree_gc.py + worktree_cmd.py):
- hermes worktree list — audit every tree: age, size, verdict, reason,
plus deletable-branch count
- hermes worktree prune [--dry-run|--trees-only|--branches-only]
- /worktree prune [--dry-run] — same engine in-session; never touches the
session's own active tree
- startup escalation: one WARNING when .worktrees/ exceeds 10 trees or
5GB, naming the reclaim commands (silence is how boxes hit 15GB)
Safety invariants (shared with the startup pruner via cli.py primitives):
tracked modifications and unique unpushed commits never deleted at any
age; live-locked trees untouched; branch deletion gated on worktree
removal success; untracked-only scratch ARCHIVED to
~/.hermes/archive/worktree-prune/ before its tree is reaped.
Branch GC is content-gated, not name-gated: any local branch fully merged
or git-cherry patch-equivalent upstream is safe to delete (rebase merges
rewrite SHAs, so --merged alone misses the dominant leak); unique-commit,
checked-out, protected, and stale-base (>50 ahead) branches are kept.
Classification is parallel (8 workers) — 244 branches audit in ~64s live.
git timeouts degrade to keep (returncode 124) instead of crashing the
audit — live-verified failure on a 746MB .git repo.
16 behavior-contract tests against real git fixtures; live dry-run on the
production repo: 12 trees reclaimable, 120 branches deletable, 0 false
positives among kept trees.
Sessions started inside a git checkout now source skills from
<root>/.hermes/skills/ and <root>/.agents/skills/ (the cross-tool
convention shared with other agent harnesses) as the highest-precedence
skill tier: project > local > external_dirs.
Loading is trust-gated per repo (skills.trusted_project_dirs, managed by
'hermes skills trust'/'untrust') because skills are executable procedure
documents — auto-sourcing them from any cloned repo is a prompt-injection
vector. Untrusted repos with skills get a one-line banner notice instead.
- agent/skill_utils.py: find_project_root, get_project_skills_dirs,
get_untrusted_project_skills_root, get_scan_ordered_skills_dirs;
project dirs join the curator read-only ownership boundary
- agent/prompt_builder.py: project tier scanned first, entries tagged
[project], same-named local entries shadowed; cache key extended
- tools/skills_tool.py: skills_list scans project dirs first (first-wins);
skill_view resolves cross-tier collisions in favor of the project tier
(same-tier ambiguity still refuses); security warning recognizes the tier
- agent/skill_commands.py + hermes_cli/commands.py: /skill-name slash
commands and gateway slash menus include project skills
- tools/credential_files.py: project dirs mounted into remote backends
- cli.py: banner notice (loaded count / trust hint)
- hermes_cli/main.py + subcommands/skills.py: hermes skills trust/untrust
- config: skills.project_discovery (default on), skills.trusted_project_dirs
- docs: Project-Local Skills section in skills.md
- tests: tests/agent/test_project_skills.py (18 cases)
Session cwd is fixed at agent build time, so the resolved tier is stable
for the conversation and the system prompt stays byte-stable (cache-safe).
Copilot CLI 1.0.79-3 added /worktree new (start a session in a new
worktree). Hermes already has hermes -w launch-time isolation; this adds
the mid-session counterpart: /worktree new [name] creates a tree under
.worktrees/ (remote-tip base, worktree_sync honored), retargets
TERMINAL_CWD + process cwd, and registers the same keep-if-unpushed exit
cleanup. /worktree shows the active tree; /worktree list lists them.
Named trees skip the hermes- prefix so the startup pruner ages them on
the slower named-tree schedule.
Copilot CLI 1.0.78 reworked /rewind to restore only the files the agent
changed, 'skipping any file whose contents no longer match what Copilot
last wrote'. This ports that protection to Hermes checkpoints:
- tools/checkpoint_manager.py: per-project agent-write ledger
(sha256 of every landed write_file/patch), safe_restore_plan()
classifier, and restore(safe=True) that reverts only agent-authored
changes, deletes agent-created files, and preserves user hand-edits.
Empty ledger (pre-existing stores) falls back to the classic full
restore.
- run_agent.py: feed the ledger from _record_file_mutation_result on
every landed mutation (zero new hooks; rides the existing verifier).
- CLI + gateway /rollback: safe mode is the default; --all/--force
restores everything; skipped files are reported with a hint.
- 17 locales: new gateway.rollback.kept_user_edits key.
- Docs: checkpoints-and-rollback.md updated.
- Tests: 7 new cases incl. user-edit preservation, post-agent user
tweaks, agent-created file removal, empty-ledger fallback.
Per review: /save with no arguments prints usage (formats, filename,
redact, examples) and writes nothing; the export requires an explicit
format. Unknown formats print the error plus the same usage card. One
shared SAVE_USAGE string in hermes_cli/session_export.py serves both the
CLI and gateway handlers. args_hint updated to <json|md|html> to reflect
the now-required format. Tests: bare-save and bad-format usage cases
added; location tests pass an explicit format.
Rework of salvaged PR #6372 (@ag9920) onto current main:
- /save promoted from CLI-only JSON snapshot to a cross-platform session
export: `/save [json|md|html] [filename] [redact]` on CLI and every
gateway platform (sent as a document via adapter.send_document).
- Rendering routes through the existing shared renderers
(hermes_cli/session_export.py + session_export_html.py) instead of the
PR's new hermes_state formatter — new helpers normalize_save_format /
render_session_for_save / default_save_filename are shared by both
surfaces.
- `redact` arg runs the export through the force-mode secret redaction
pass (session_export_md.redact_session_data) before writing.
- Gateway handler awaits AsyncSessionDB correctly, sanitizes user-supplied
filenames with basename, and lands in gateway/slash_commands.py (the
handlers moved out of gateway/run.py since the PR was authored).
- /export stays profile export (name collision resolved: session export
lives on /save).
- Slack 50-slash cap curation: /platform moves to the /hermes-only set to
free a native slot for /save (parity test updated rationale comment).
- Folds in PR #62268 (@briandevans): None title/model coalescing in the
single-session HTML export.
Closes#4249. Closes#51200.
The /tools and /personality completers run on every keystroke while the
user types those commands (complete_while_typing), and both re-read +
re-parse the full config on each keypress:
- _tools_completions called load_config() — the defensive deepcopy
(~340us/call on cache hit) even though it only reads toolset enable
state + MCP server names. Switched to load_config_readonly() (the
perf(agent) #74322 pattern; this per-keystroke site was missed).
- _personality_completions called load_cli_config() — a full YAML parse
+ deep merge of the built-in defaults (~110us) — on every keystroke.
Memoised keyed on the config file path+mtime (same pattern as load_env
/ _nous_auth_status_cache), so the parse runs once per config state.
Measured: /tools 357us -> 18us per keystroke; /personality parse drops
from 1-per-keystroke to 1-per-config-change (500 keystrokes -> 1 parse).
Regression tests: _tools_completions uses the readonly loader (deepcopy
loader never called); personality memo parses once across repeated
completions and re-parses once after a config mtime change.
(cherry picked from commit 2b3f897171f93dc6b099848ec5ab3763b7294870)
Ports Claude Code's /loop (and its /proactive alias) across every Hermes
surface. /loop [interval] <prompt> re-runs a prompt or slash command on a
recurring cadence inside the live session; omitting the interval enables
self-paced mode (starts at the floor, backs off exponentially while the
agent's replies stop changing, snaps back on change — local digest
comparison, zero extra LLM cost).
Stop conditions: agent-emitted LOOP_COMPLETE marker, --times N,
--until <condition> (judged by the existing goal_judge aux task,
fail-open), /loop stop, and a loops.max_ticks backstop budget.
Core: hermes_cli/loops.py (LoopState + LoopManager + shared
dispatch_loop_command), persisted per session in SessionDB state_meta
(loop:<sid>) so /resume picks it up; migrates across compression
boundaries like /goal. New SessionDB.list_meta_prefix() powers the
gateway's cross-session scan.
Surfaces:
- CLI: /loop handler + idle-fire and post-turn-complete hooks in
process_loop (mirrors the /goal hook shape; Ctrl+C pauses the loop)
- Gateway: /loop handler with route capture, mid-run control-verb guard,
post-turn tick completion, and a supervised loop_wakeup_watcher that
injects due wakeups into idle chats via the synthetic-message path
- TUI/dashboard/desktop: command.dispatch handler + per-session
notification-poller wakeup driver + post-turn completion in the turn
dispatcher; /loop added to the desktop slash palette
- /goal mixing: an active non-parked goal owns the idle boundary — loop
ticks defer until it finishes, pauses, or parks; real user input always
wins over both
Config: loops.{min_interval_seconds,max_ticks,self_paced_floor_seconds,
self_paced_ceiling_seconds}. Docs page + sidebar entry. 77 new tests.
Slack's 50-slash cap: /version moves to /hermes version to free the
native slot for /loop.
Adds a 'council' synthesis style to MoA (per preset via synthesis_style,
one-shot via the new /council command on CLI + gateway). Reference models
answer independently; the aggregator chairs the deliberation and produces
a user-facing report of consensus, per-model disagreements (with the
differing assumptions behind them), unique contributions, and a
recommendation with an explicit confidence level.
Inspired by Perplexity's Model Council rollout to Perplexity Computer
(changelog 08/04/26): pick a board of 2-8 models, run them independently,
synthesize where they agree/disagree and what each uniquely surfaces.
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.
Personality persistence used to be split per surface: the TUI/desktop wrote
the NAME to display.personality while the CLI/gateway wrote rendered TEXT
into agent.system_prompt (and their /personality none only blanked the
text, leaving the name behind). When #81946 made display.personality
authoritative everywhere, stale names written long ago resurrected
personalities users had turned off - kawaii defaulting on after updating.
- hermes_cli/personality.py: new single owner of personality state.
Built-in personality definitions, neutral-name normalization, rendering,
availability (built-ins overlaid by agent.personalities), overlay
resolution, and the ONLY sanctioned persistence path
(persist_personality -> display.personality; never agent.system_prompt).
- v34 config migration: one-time reset of display.personality to none
(announcing which personality was cleared and how to re-enable), plus a
scrub of agent.system_prompt when it verbatim-equals a known personality
render (machine-written by the old CLI/gateway). Hand-written manual
prompts are never touched.
- All surfaces rewired through the module: CLI /personality (incl. active
marker in the list), gateway /personality, TUI config.set + slash path
(which previously applied without persisting), TUI config.get (reports
the EFFECTIVE personality), completer, hermes config display, and the
tui_gateway health probe.
- cli.py/config duplicates removed: built-ins now defined once; the
desktop mirrors them from one lib module (src/lib/personalities.ts).
- Docs updated: selection lives in display.personality, built-ins always
available, one-time reset note.
Four fix-forwards from the adversarial post-merge audit of the Aug 7
unreviewed merge batch:
- estop (#81148): is_engaged() now fails SAFE (engaged) on stat errors;
the gateway estop gate lets recognized slash commands and replies owned
by in-flight work (update prompts, clarify, slash-confirm, tool
approvals, running sessions) through instead of consuming them; new
gateway /pause [reason|off] command gives messaging-only operators an
in-band engage/resume path (busy_policy=dispatch so it works mid-run).
- cron monitor mode (#81138): execution-mode invariants (monitor x
no_agent, monitor_script x monitor_url, no_agent-requires-script) now
have ONE owner (_validate_job_mode_invariants) called from BOTH
create_job and update_job, so the create-time invariant can no longer
be silently violated through the update door.
- cron notepad (#81139): remove_job now clears the job's notepad rows
(clear_notepad was dead code -> orphaned KV state forever); clear is
best-effort and no-ops without creating notepad.db.
- delegation batch gate (#81141): template-marker regex narrowed to
multi-word placeholder shapes only (<feature name>, {file_path}) so
generics (Vec<T>), HTML tags, JSON snippets, glob braces and f-string
style no longer reject legitimate batches; duplicate-goal rejection
removed (best-of-N fan-outs are legitimate).
/refine [focus] fires the existing background review fork
(AIAgent._spawn_background_review) immediately instead of waiting for
the automatic 10-turn memory / 10-iteration skill nudge counters.
Optional focus instructions are appended to the review prompt so the
fork prioritizes what the user asked for (e.g. '/refine save the
deploy workflow as a skill').
- New optional focus parameter threaded through
_spawn_background_review -> spawn_background_review_thread.
Automatic post-turn reviews pass None and their prompts are
byte-identical to before.
- CLI handler snapshots conversation_history; gateway handler pulls
the idle session's cached AIAgent from _agent_cache (rejected while
the agent is running).
- Review runs in a daemon thread against the snapshot — live
conversation, message alternation, and prompt cache untouched.
- Slack stays under the 50-slash cap via /hermes refine.
Adapted from the /refine concept in Prime Intellect's Prime-Agent
(Continual Harness); Hermes' equivalent durable state is the
memory + skill stores, so the review fork is the natural target.
/heartbeat every <interval> <prompt> gives the current session one
recurring instruction. When the session is idle and the interval has
elapsed, the prompt is injected as a plain user turn — same
conversation, same context, prompt cache and role alternation
untouched.
- CLI: idle-poll watchdog thread (wake-word watchdog pattern) feeding
_pending_input; gateway: single gateway-wide async poller injecting
through the adapter FIFO. Busy sessions coalesce their tick to the
next idle poll.
- Missed ticks coalesce (anchor resets on fire) — a busy hour yields
ONE heartbeat turn, never a backlog. Real user messages always win.
- 60s interval floor; injected prompt carries a don't-invent-work
guard so idle heartbeats don't generate busywork.
- State persists in SessionDB.state_meta (heartbeat:<session_id>),
survives /resume, migrates across compression session rotations
alongside /goal state.
- Session-scoped and in-process by design — durable cross-process
schedules remain the cron subsystem's job (docs draw the boundary).
- Slack stays under the 50-slash cap via /hermes heartbeat; ghost-text
suggester now prefers the shortest prefix match so /he still
suggests /help.
Adapted from the session-heartbeat concept in Prime Intellect's
Prime-Agent (/heartbeat).
/goal gate add <command> attaches shell commands to the active goal.
Gates run at turn boundary BEFORE the LLM judge: a failing gate skips
the judge entirely and feeds its exit code + bounded output tail back
as the continuation prompt, so the agent iterates against concrete
evidence instead of a prose verdict.
- Unchanged-workspace skip: a gate that failed on an identical
workspace (git HEAD + status fingerprint) is not re-run — the
recorded failure replays and the attempt count advances.
- Bounded retries (default 3) + per-gate timeout (default 300s);
exhaustion auto-pauses the goal like the turn budget does.
- Gates persist in SessionDB.state_meta with the goal (survive
/resume and compression rotation); pre-gate goal rows load
unchanged.
- /goal gate [list|add|remove|clear] on CLI + gateway; 'gate' added
to the mid-run control-verb whitelist (gates only run at turn
boundary, so editing the list mid-run is safe).
Adapted from the quality-gate concept in Prime Intellect's Prime-Agent
(--autonomous-gate).
/export [profile] [-o output.tar.gz] bundles a profile into the shareable
archive; /import <archive> [--name <name>] adopts one as a new profile
(wrapper alias created when safe). Registry-driven, cli_only, so the CLI
and TUI both pick them up in autocomplete and help.
The /indicator command was registered in COMMAND_REGISTRY, listed in
/help, offered by tab-completion, recommended by the tips system, and
even documented in config.py — but it had no actual handler. Running
/indicator in the CLI produced "Unknown command: indicator".
Add _handle_indicator_command to CLICommandsMixin that:
- Shows the current indicator style when called with no args or "status"
- Validates the requested style against the shared INDICATOR_STYLES
allowlist (ascii | emoji | kaomoji | unicode)
- Persists the choice to display.tui_status_indicator in config.yaml
via the existing save_config_value helper
- Falls back to session-only when config save fails
The indicator-style allowlist is defined once in hermes_constants as
INDICATOR_STYLES + DEFAULT_INDICATOR_STYLE and imported by all three
consumers (CLI handler, command registry, TUI gateway config handler),
preventing drift between the TUI and CLI validation.
Also adds tests/cli/test_indicator_command.py covering dispatch,
validation, persistence, and registry integration.
