Each copy re-implemented temp+replace by hand and lacked one or more of
fsync, symlink preservation, atomic_replace's Windows-contention retry and
EXDEV/bind-mount fallback, mode preservation, or interrupt-safe temp
cleanup. Three (gateway/session_persistence, cron/suggestions,
agent/shell_hooks) were verbatim inlines of utils._atomic_write; two
modules defined their own directory-fsync helper, now utils.fsync_directory.
plugins/google_meet/_jsonfile.write_json_atomic is deleted (callers use the
canonical helper directly).
Behavior change: every one of these writers now fsyncs the payload, keeps a
pre-existing target's mode, cleans its temp file on BaseException, and
survives Windows AV/indexer contention and cross-device renames the way
config writes already did. cron/suggestions.json is 0600 from creation
(previously chmod'ed after the replace). Skipped on purpose: cron/jobs.py
two-phase staging, gateway/status._write_json_excl (create-only lock),
kanban_transfer staging (not atomic writers); tools/skill_usage.
_write_suppressed_names lives inside a PLUGIN-COMPAT block.
One multiplexed gateway process serves every profile, but several per-turn
reads still went through state frozen from the LAUNCH profile:
- `_current_max_iterations` re-bridged `agent.max_turns`/`sessions.*` from the
module constant `_hermes_home` into one process-wide HERMES_MAX_ITERATIONS,
so every secondary ran with the default profile's turn budget. A routed turn
(HERMES_HOME override) now resolves `agent.max_turns` from its own config.
- `_refresh_fallback_model` read `_hermes_home/config.yaml` into one runner-wide
slot, so secondaries fell back through the default's provider/model with their
own keys. It now reads the active gateway home and keeps a last-known-good
chain per home.
- `_load_prefill_messages` resolved relative paths against the launch home.
- `agent/auxiliary_client._AUTH_JSON_PATH` was an import-time constant, so a
secondary's compression/title/vision calls authenticated to Nous with the
default profile's token when it had no pool entry. Resolved per call via
`hermes_cli.auth._auth_file_path()` (patched constant still wins in tests).
- `gateway/hooks.HOOKS_DIR` was frozen at import and one `HookRegistry` was
loaded outside any profile scope, so secondaries' `hooks/` never ran and the
default profile's handlers received every profile's messages, responses and
user ids. `HOOKS_DIR` now resolves per call (salvaged from #56508) and the
runner holds one registry per served home, picked from the active scope at
emit time and front-loaded under each secondary's startup scope.
- Shell-hook subprocesses inherited the launch `os.environ` (default HERMES_HOME
and the default profile's secrets). They now get the routed HERMES_HOME via
`build_subprocess_env`, scrubbed under multiplexing, and the stdin payload
carries `profile` so one script can tell which profile fired it.
- Media-delivery policy (`gateway.strict`, `media_delivery_allow_dirs`,
`trust_recent_files*`) was bridged once into env at startup and read from env
per delivery; under a HERMES_HOME override the validator now reads the routed
profile's config. Single-profile runs keep the env-bridge contract.
Audit: /tmp/mux_audit F3, F4, F6 (auth.json half), F7, F12 (media). Live repro
(temp HERMES_HOME A with profiles/B): before, B saw max_iterations 7,
fallback A/fallback, TOKEN_A, A's hooks, strict=A; after, all B's values.
Adds a `modify` response type to pre_tool_call hooks so a hook can
transform tool arguments before the tool executes, instead of repairing
results afterwards via post_tool_call.
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: _dispatch_pre_tool_call_hooks() fires hooks once
and returns (block_message, modified_args); modify directives
shallow-merge into an accumulated dict built from the original args.
- agent/shell_hooks.py: _parse_response() accepts both the canonical
{"action": "modify", "args": {...}} and Claude Code-compatible
{"decision": "modify", "tool_input": {...}} wire formats.
- model_tools.py, agent/tool_executor.py, agent/agent_runtime_helpers.py:
dispatch sites migrated; modified args applied before execution.
- Docs + 10 new tests (merge semantics, precedence, block interplay).
Salvaged from PR #28953. Best fix for #18988.
Applies the batch-disposition SALVAGE conditions from #64231: the hook id
moves to the taxonomy transform-family name, and run-all-then-pick-first
dispatch now logs a runtime warning when a valid-but-losing classification
is skipped (the #64714 skipped-transform rule). Chaining semantics are
stated explicitly at the VALID_HOOKS entry, the dispatch helper docstring,
and the hooks.md catalog row and detail section.
Rebased onto current main, where the OpenRouter tool-use 404 is now
handled natively (the bundled demo's exact reason to exist), so the demo
plugin is removed per the standalone-repo policy and every test now uses
a synthetic unclaimed error (fake provider, neutral message, no status
code) that no present or future built-in rule can claim.
classify_api_error is now explicitly Python-plugin-only: VALID_HOOKS
doubles as the shell-hook allow-list, but the shell response parser has
no channel for the classification directive, so shell registrations are
refused at config parse with a warning instead of being silently
ignored (new SHELL_UNSUPPORTED_HOOKS set + regression test).
The hook is documented in the hooks reference as the third
behavior-changing hook, with the full kwargs contract, return shape,
and the Python-only note.

Add a `pre_verify` user/plugin/shell hook fired once per turn when the agent
edited code and is about to finish, after the existing verify-on-stop guard. A
hook can keep the agent going one more turn (run a check, defer it, tidy the
diff) by returning {"action":"continue","message":...} (the Claude-Code Stop
shape {"decision":"block","reason":...} is accepted too). Hooks receive coding,
attempt, final_response, and sorted changed_paths so they can self-scope and
self-throttle; the path is bounded by agent.max_verify_nudges and preserves
message-role alternation.
Hermes still ships its default coding guidance (agent.verify_guidance, on by
default), but it now rides the evidence-based verify-on-stop missing-evidence
nudge instead of a separate default pre_verify continuation, so it costs no
extra model turn of its own. Guidance reuses the shared utils.is_truthy_value
parser rather than a local copy.
Remove unused imports (F401) and duplicate/shadowed import
redefinitions (F811) across the codebase using ruff's safe
autofixes. No behavioral changes -- imports only.
- ~1400 safe autofixes applied across 644 files (net -1072 lines)
- __init__.py re-exports preserved (excluded from F401 removal so
public re-export surfaces stay intact)
- Re-exports that are imported or monkeypatched by tests but look
unused in their defining module are kept with explicit # noqa:
F401 (gateway/run.py load_dotenv; run_agent re-exports from
agent.message_sanitization, agent.context_compressor,
agent.retry_utils, agent.prompt_builder, agent.process_bootstrap,
agent.codex_responses_adapter)
- Unsafe F841 (unused-variable) fixes deliberately skipped -- those
can change behavior when the RHS has side effects
- ruff lints remain disabled in pyproject.toml (only PLW1514 is
selected); this is a one-time cleanup, not a config change
Verification:
- python -m compileall: clean
- pytest --collect-only: all 27161 tests collect (zero import errors)
- core entry points import clean (run_agent, model_tools, cli,
toolsets, hermes_state, batch_runner, gateway)
- static scan: every name any test imports directly from an edited
module still resolves
Address code review feedback on _parse_response:
1. Restore isinstance(raw, str) guard so non-string message/reason values
(e.g. integers, lists) from a malformed hook response fall back to the
default rather than being forwarded as-is. This keeps the contract that
message in the returned dict is always a string.
2. Extract the repeated literal 'Blocked by shell hook.' into a module-level
constant _DEFAULT_BLOCK_MESSAGE to avoid duplication and make it easy to
change in one place.
Four new unit tests added to tests/agent/test_shell_hooks.py covering:
- action block with no message (uses default)
- decision block with no reason (uses default)
- action block with empty string message (uses default)
- action block with non-string message, e.g. integer (uses default)
Users can declare shell scripts in config.yaml under a hooks: block that
fire on plugin-hook events (pre_tool_call, post_tool_call, pre_llm_call,
subagent_stop, etc). Scripts receive JSON on stdin, can return JSON on
stdout to block tool calls or inject context pre-LLM.
Key design:
- Registers closures on existing PluginManager._hooks dict — zero changes
to invoke_hook() call sites
- subprocess.run(shell=False) via shlex.split — no shell injection
- First-use consent per (event, command) pair, persisted to allowlist JSON
- Bypass via --accept-hooks, HERMES_ACCEPT_HOOKS=1, or hooks_auto_accept
- hermes hooks list/test/revoke/doctor CLI subcommands
- Adds subagent_stop hook event fired after delegate_task children exit
- Claude Code compatible response shapes accepted
