force_refresh_token gated the adopt-from-disk paths behind the failure cooldown.
After one of our exchanges failed transiently, a 401 within the next 30s returned
None even when a sibling process had already rotated and written a valid grant,
so the operation raised HonchoAuthError with a good token sitting on disk.
Adopting is a disk read, not an exchange; the cooldown exists to stop replaying a
single-use refresh token, so the two adopt checks now run before the gates.
_write_config parsed honcho.json twice under the lock and only wrapped the first
read into ConfigWriteRefused; _refuse_unparseable now returns the parsed dict and
the branches use it. The getattr/isinstance duck-typing collapses to one guard.
cli._read_config reuses oauth's tolerant reader (BOM-tolerant, like the strict
reader the write side uses) instead of its own utf-8 copy.
_ReadConfig builds its snapshot in __init__; _read_config no longer
assigns the attributes after the fact. cmd_enable prints its hint
inline, since _no_credential_hint had one caller. The split
force_refresh_token signature and call fit on one line. Docstrings and
comments keep the what and the one non-obvious why. No behavior
changes; _apply_edits keeps its original body.
a login finishing while a refresh was rotating the same honcho.json ran
its read-modify-write unlocked. the two writers could interleave: the
login read the file, the refresh persisted a rotated token, the login
wrote its own copy back and the rotated token was gone.
install_grant now holds _refresh_lock and _config_refresh_lock(path)
around the strict read, the config merge and the persist, the same way
force_refresh_token does. the token response is parsed before the locks
so a malformed grant never holds them.
a truncated or hand-edited honcho.json reads as {} on the tolerant read
path. the next write then replaced the file with only the current host
block: an oauth refresh, a login, or any 'hermes honcho' command that
saves a setting wiped every other host and the root keys.
_read_config_strict now raises on a parse error the same way it raises
on a read error, and logs one sentence naming the file. _rotate_and_persist
treats that as a refresh failure and enters the cooldown without spending
the refresh token. install_grant raises into the setup flow. in cli.py
every write goes through _write_config, which runs the same check first
and raises ConfigWriteRefused; the honcho router, the setup wizard and the
profile sync print the sentence instead of a traceback. the wizard checks
before asking its questions. read paths keep the {} fallback.
follows #95860, which added the strict reader for unreadable files and
kept a .corrupt copy on a parse error. leaving the original file in place
keeps the same bytes without a second copy of the tokens on disk.
_persist_credential promises "leaving all else intact", but it seeded
its write from _read_config, which returns {} on ANY read failure, and
_atomic_write_config replaces the whole file via os.replace — which
needs only a writable parent, so a present-but-unreadable honcho.json
did not stop the overwrite. One OSError (EACCES after a root-owned
write, EIO, a stalled mount) during an automatic token refresh or a
fresh login therefore replaced the store with a single-host file,
destroying every other host's credentials and honcho.json's root
config. No user action is required to trigger the refresh path.
Same defect class as #75206 (P1, fixed for the core auth store in
Add _read_config_strict for the write paths: a missing file still
bootstraps as {}; an unreadable file raises with the store untouched;
genuine corruption still degrades but preserves a .corrupt copy first,
since a truncated store usually holds the other hosts' tokens verbatim.
_rotate_and_persist now takes its strict read BEFORE the exchange —
rotation is single-use, so an exchange whose result cannot be persisted
loses the grant — and threads the dict through to _persist_credential,
which also closes the re-read race between the locked read and the
persist. install_grant seeds its root-merge from the strict reader for
the same reason. Read paths keep their fail-open contract untouched;
both readers now use utf-8-sig so a BOM'd store is not misclassified
as corruption (the wipe vector needing no filesystem fault at all).
Adds TestPersistReadFailure: six tests, four of which fail against the
previous source; the rotate-ordering test additionally pins that no
exchange is attempted against an unreadable store.
desktop spawns multiple serve processes that share one rotating honcho
refresh token. force_refresh_token treated every 401 as "rotate now" even
when a sibling had already persisted a new grant, which can replay a
single-use refresh token and revoke the whole grant.
re-read honcho.json under the existing file lock and adopt if the token
that 401'd is no longer on disk. on invalid_grant, re-read once more
before marking the grant dead.
Six of eight memory providers spawned plain threading.Thread for prefetch/sync/
writer work. A plain thread starts with an EMPTY contextvars.Context, so under
multiplex profiles the worker resolved the DEFAULT profile's HERMES_HOME (and
fails closed on scoped secrets). honcho and hindsight had each noticed and
written their own copy_context() wrapper; core had a third in memory_manager.
One canonical pair now lives on the ABC module every provider already imports:
agent/memory_provider.py::ctx_bound / spawn_context_thread. memory_manager,
honcho, hindsight, mem0, retaindb, byterover, supermemory and openviking all use
it; the honcho and hindsight wrappers and memory_manager._ctx_bound are deleted.
Five "json.loads(path.read_text()) or {}" readers (mem0._read_mem0_json,
honcho client/oauth/cli _read_config, hindsight save_config/_load_config) fold
into utils.read_json_or_empty, the read half of every read-merge-atomic_json_write
sidecar store.
holographic.save_config was the only config.yaml writer in the tree that
bypassed hermes_cli.config.save_config: raw open("w") + yaml.dump with no config
lock, no managed-mode refusal, no atomic replace, and a swallowed exception. It
now calls save_config(..., merge_existing=True). Behavior change: a managed
install refuses the write (previously silently rewrote config.yaml); other
sections are deep-merged instead of round-tripped through a raw dump.
openviking._hermes_home_path guarded an impossible ImportError of
hermes_constants (the module already imports agent.*) with a ~/.hermes fallback
that is wrong on Windows and under profile overrides; it is replaced by
get_hermes_home() directly.
Tests: tests/plugins/memory/test_provider_threads_inherit_profile.py drives each
provider's real spawn path with a fake backend and asserts the thread sees the
spawner's HERMES_HOME override (sabotage: retaindb back on threading.Thread ->
red). tests/plugins/memory/test_holographic_save_config.py pins merge-with-
existing-sections and managed-mode refusal (sabotage: raw yaml.dump -> red).
The a2a invariant test skipped any synthesized token the canonical
redactor itself let through, so a boundary/shape regression would have
passed silently. Every class scrubs today, so the escape hatch goes and
the soft ">= 50" count becomes the exact registry size.
The gateway body test still asserted a "[REDACTED]" fallback marker that
no longer exists; redact_for_egress masks via _mask_token ("***"), so
assert that alone. honcho oauth.py's `re` import became unused when its
private pattern list moved to the registry.
plugins/platforms/a2a/security.py::redact_outbound shipped text to a REMOTE peer
through 8 private regexes (sk-, sk-ant-, ghp_ only, xox[bap] only, AKIA, JWT,
Bearer, email) and never called redact_sensitive_text, so every prefix added to
agent/redact.py (hf_, glpat-, xapp-, npm_, Telegram bot tokens, private keys,
DB URLs, env assignments, auth headers, plugin-registered patterns) was absent
on the A2A path. gateway/run.py::_GATEWAY_SECRET_PATTERNS and
agent/monitoring/redaction.py::_TOKEN_RE/_BEARER_RE were two more parallel
"fallback" lists to maintain.
Now agent/redact.py::redact_for_egress is the one egress scrub:
redact_sensitive_text(force=True) + a bearer sweep for prefix-less opaque
tokens, fail-closed ("[redaction-unavailable]"). Gateway user-facing text,
monitoring export and A2A outbound call it; A2A keeps only its e-mail pass.
Behavior changes: a2a egress now masks the full canonical set; the gateway
chat path returns the fail-closed sentinel instead of a raw string when the
redactor raises; honcho plugin registers hch-at-/hch-rt- with
register_redaction_patterns (masked on every surface; mask shape is the
shared head/tail form instead of "hch-at-[redacted]"); proxy_cli token
display uses mask_secret (4 visible prefix chars instead of 12).
Invariant test: redact_outbound masks a synthesized token for every
registered prefix pattern (fails when reverted to the private list).
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.
Follow-ups from review of #80590:
- oauth.py: extract _rotate_and_persist() — the twin ~18-line
OAuthRefreshError permanent/transient handling blocks in
ensure_fresh_token and force_refresh_token were byte-identical
except the log verb.
- oauth.py: cap the exchange cycle at _REFRESH_TOTAL_BUDGET_SECONDS
(20s). The retry runs while holding the global refresh locks on the
path to a memory call; a timed-out first attempt no longer earns a
second full 15s exchange (~32s lock hold -> <=20s).
- oauth.py: transient-failure cooldown (_refresh_failure_at, 30s).
Waiting threads and later turns fail open to the stale token instead
of serializing their own full exchange cycles against an endpoint
that just failed. Cleared on successful rotation and re-login.
- oauth.py: mtime-gate reauth_required()'s config read — the dead-grant
state persists until re-login, and the verdict can only change when
the config file is rewritten; drop the per-call read+parse.
- oauth.py: derive _TOKEN_VALUE_RE from ACCESS_TOKEN_PREFIX /
REFRESH_TOKEN_PREFIX so a prefix change can't silently break
redaction; promote redact_tokens to public (session.py imported the
private name).
- session.py: fast path in _reauth_required — skip config-path
resolution entirely while no grant is dead (runs before every SDK
call).
- session.py: client-generation counter closes the fetch/store race in
_sdk_session/_get_or_create_peer — an object resolved from the old
client mid-rebuild is no longer cached (it would 401 forever and burn
a token rotation per retry).
- __init__.py: drop the getattr/callable/except triple-guard in
_pop_auth_notice; the manager is always None or HonchoSessionManager.
7 new tests (budget, cooldown x3, generation guard, fast path); all
mutation-checked (disabling each guard fails its test). honcho_plugin
293 passed; plugins/memory 285 passed; live E2E against a real HTTP
token endpoint re-verified.
An expired access token could pause Honcho memory for hours with no
user-facing signal: ensure_fresh_token swallowed every exchange failure
and returned the stale token, no code handled a 401 from the Honcho API,
and each failed dialectic cycle widened the cadence backoff. Hypothesis
for the trigger (not confirmed): the refresh POST times out after the
server already rotated the token pair, Hermes keeps the old refresh
token, and the eventual replay lands outside the server's 60-second
rotation grace window, which revokes the whole grant.
- oauth: the exchange reads the token endpoint's error body instead of
discarding it. invalid_grant and other permanent OAuth errors mark the
grant dead so no code retries a revoked grant; transient failures retry
once immediately, which keeps a replayed refresh token inside the grace
window. Log lines redact token values.
- oauth: force_refresh_token() rotates the token now, ignoring local
expiry, to recover from a server-side 401.
- session: dialectic_query and _flush_session treat a 401 as a trigger to
force one token rotation and retry the call exactly once. A persistent
auth failure raises HonchoAuthError (dialectic) or records the failure
(sync) instead of being returned as an empty result.
- provider: injects a one-time notice into the memory context so the
model tells the user memory is paused and 'hermes honcho setup'
restores it. Auth failures no longer widen the dialectic cadence
backoff.
New tests cover the exchange retry, invalid_grant terminality plus
re-login recovery, forced refresh, 401 retry on both the sync and
dialectic paths, the one-time notice, and the backoff exemption.
Adds a device authorization grant flow alongside the existing loopback
OAuth flow, so `hermes setup` can connect to Honcho cloud from SSH and
other no-browser environments.
- oauth.py: new HTTP seams — _http_post_form_status (non-raising, since
RFC 8628 polling reads the OAuth error off a 400) and _http_get_json
for the RFC 8414 metadata probe
- oauth_flow.py: DeviceCode, request_device_code, poll_for_token with
slow_down backoff (+5s, capped at 60s) bounded by expires_in, typed
errors (AccessDenied, DeviceCodeExpired, AuthorizationTimeout), and
supports_device_login (fail-closed metadata gate); device flow ends in
the same install_grant tail as loopback so refresh/status work
unchanged
- oauth_flow.py: loopback callback now serves a "sign-in was not
completed" page on consent cancel instead of the success page
- cli.py: cloud menu offers oauth / device / apikey; the device option
only appears when the host advertises the grant, and becomes the
default when no browser is detected
- 18 new tests covering the full flow against a local fake AS, backoff
schedule, error mapping, deadline bound, metadata gate, and wizard
branches

main's wizard suite scripts the cloud prompts without the OAuth auth-method step; auto-answer it in the shared helper so the answer lists stay shape-only.
* docs(honcho): document query-adaptive reasoning level (reasoningHeuristic)
README never mentioned reasoningHeuristic and listed reasoningLevelCap as an orphaned cap with the wrong default (— vs "high"). Add the query-adaptive scaling note + the reasoningHeuristic/reasoningLevelCap rows (grouped under Dialectic & Reasoning), matching the wording already on the hosted honcho.md page, and add a pointer from the memory-providers overview.
* fix(honcho): default the CLI peer prompt to the OAuth consent name
The CLI runs the grant with apply_config=False, so the peerName the user just entered at consent was dropped and the wizard's 'Your name' prompt fell back to $USER. Surface it as a transient OAuthCredential.consent_peer_name (set even when config isn't merged) and seed the prompt default from it.
* feat(honcho): split OAuth client_id by surface (cli=hermes-agent, desktop=hermes-desktop)
resolve_endpoints now picks the client_id from the initiating surface and
threads it through authorize -> token exchange -> persisted grant -> refresh,
so the CLI and desktop register as distinct OAuth clients. Surface-specific
env overrides (HONCHO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID_CLI/_DESKTOP) win over the generic
HONCHO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID, which still overrides every surface.
* feat(honcho): show OAuth vs API key in status; detect existing OAuth in setup
status now prints 'Auth: OAuth (clientId, token valid Xm/expired)' instead of
masking the OAuth access token as a generic API key; setup notes an existing
OAuth grant when re-run.
* docs(honcho): drop 'shared pool' wording from unified observation mode help
* fix(honcho): cross-process lock around OAuth refresh to prevent grant revocation
The in-process threading lock can't stop a sibling process (another profile or
the desktop app sharing honcho.json) from replaying the single-use refresh
token and tripping reuse-detection, which revokes the whole grant. Guard the
read-refresh-persist section with an OS file lock on <config>.lock so only one
process rotates at a time; the others re-read the freshly-persisted token.
Best-effort: platforms without flock degrade to in-process serialization.
* refactor(honcho): one OAuth client (hermes-agent) for all surfaces
Collapse the per-surface client_id split. CLI and desktop now use a single
client_id (hermes-agent); consent branding/UI still adapt via the source query
param. One grant identity means no clientId-vs-refresh-token desync that could
get the grant revoked. HONCHO_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID still overrides for self-hosting.
* fix(honcho): per-session resolves to session_id, never remapped by title
Reorder resolve_session_name so stable identifiers win over labels: gateway
per-chat key first, then the per-session session_id, then the cwd map / title.
A (possibly auto-generated) title can no longer remap a live per-session
conversation onto a second Honcho session mid-stream — fixes the desktop, which
is per-conversation via session_id. Consequence: a gateway's per-chat key now
also wins over a title (titles never remap a stable id).
