Erosika d532d83eca refactor(honcho): trim duplicated tests and long docstrings
Parametrize the sessionStart, injection-log, dashboard user_id, unresolved-peer
and deferred-save tests that differed only in their inputs. Share the blocking
remote in the concurrent flush tests. Fold _as_flag onto a word table. Cut the
added docstrings to the what and the one non-obvious why.

Erosika beab8b6f27 fix(honcho): keep observation flags across a flush rebuild, never orphan an evicted session, namespace dashboard logins
`_flush_session` discarded the observation flags when it rebuilt an evicted SDK session, and the
cached path returned none, so recall fell back to the config snapshot. Both paths now return and
store the flags. A deferred `save()` on a session the cap evicted puts it back in the cache, or
flushes it inline when a newer object owns the key. `save()` and `stop_async_writer()` share the
writer lock, and the writer drains its queue after the join, so a put that raced shutdown is
written. The trim after a flush runs under the cache lock. The shutdown join takes the remaining
budget instead of a fixed ten seconds.

The injection audit file is created owner-only, and `logging: "false"` reads as off. The desktop
passes `<provider>:<user id>` so a basic-auth alice and an OIDC alice are two peers. When a
gateway platform supplies no user id, the peer notice and tool error no longer recommend
peerName, which would merge every user of that gateway onto one peer. README documents
`injection.sessionStart`, `logging`, and what a dashboard login does to peer resolution.

Erosika c5973cd540 feat(tui-gateway): build the agent with the authenticated dashboard user as user_id
the dashboard login already stamps {user_id, provider} on the websocket
at upgrade time and tui_gateway keeps it as WSTransport.auth_identity,
but _make_agent never read it. every dashboard and desktop session was
built with user_id=None, so memory providers saw no runtime user and fell
back to the configured peer, mixing all logins together (#89794).

_make_agent now reads the session transport's auth_identity and passes
its user_id to AIAgent, the kwarg gateway platforms already use. the
legacy ?token= path, stdio, and the server-internal credential the PTY
child connects with carry no human and pass None, so they keep resolving
to the configured peer. the change is provider-neutral: honcho and any
other memory provider receive the id through the existing initialize()
kwargs.

teknium1 11576390fe refactor(model): one persist writer for /model across CLI, gateway, TUI, dashboard; ACP + dashboard validate through switch_model
One `/model --global` produced four config.yaml shapes. CLI wrote
default/provider/base_url/api_mode and cleared the context pin on a route
change; the gateway rewrote the whole `model:` block (whole-file save_config)
and only set api_mode for `custom`; the TUI wrote three keys and never
touched api_mode, so a switch off an Anthropic-wire endpoint left a stale
`api_mode: anthropic_messages` in config; the dashboard main slot had its own
switched-provider logic, wrote `base_url: ""` and always dropped
context_length. ACP `session/set_model` and `POST /api/model/set` accepted
any model string (parse_model_input + detect_provider_for_model) so a model
no catalog knows, or a provider with no credentials, was handed to the
session / persisted and only failed at inference time.

Canonical: `hermes_cli.model_switch.model_selection_config_updates` (the
shape) + `persist_model_selection(result, config_path=None)` (targeted
per-key `atomic_roundtrip_yaml_update` writes, so sibling
`model_slots`/`model_fallback` keys survive; explicit path for the
multiplexed gateway's profile config) + `apply_model_selection` (same shape
applied to an in-memory `model:` dict for callers that save a whole
document). `atomic_roundtrip_yaml_update(value=None)` now REMOVES the key
instead of writing `key: null`, so per-key and whole-document writers land
the same file. Shape = CLI/gateway semantics: default, provider, base_url
(cleared when the target has none), api_mode (cleared when unresolved),
context_length cleared only when `should_clear_context_pin` says the route
identity changed, inline api_key/api cleared for non-custom targets.

Sites -> canonical:
  hermes_cli/cli_model_switch_mixin.py::_persist_global_switch          -> deleted; _commit_model_switch calls persist_model_selection
  hermes_cli/cli_model_switch_mixin.py::_clear_persisted_context_for_model_switch -> deleted (folded into the shape)
  gateway/slash_commands_model.py::_persist_model_switch_to_config       -> to_thread forwarder: persist_model_selection(result, ctx.config_path)
  tui_gateway/model_switch.py::_persist_model_switch                     -> deleted; _apply_model_switch calls persist_model_selection
  hermes_cli/web_server_config.py::_apply_main_model_assignment          -> apply_model_selection(result) (+ explicit custom api_key)
  hermes_cli/web_server_config.py::_validated_main_model_selection       -> NEW: switch_model(--provider) gate; rejection -> HTTP 400
  hermes_cli/web_routers/{models,profiles,config_env}.py main-slot paths -> through _validated_main_model_selection
  acp_adapter/server.py::_resolve_model_selection                        -> deleted; _switch_model calls switch_model (provider:model -> --provider), rejection -> ValueError

Behavior changes: TUI --global now writes/clears model.api_mode and clears a
route-changed context pin; gateway --global no longer rewrites the whole
model block (sibling keys survive) and clears api_mode for every target;
dashboard main slot / profile-create model / custom-endpoint activate now
reject unknown/uncredentialed/unlisted models (HTTP 400) and persist the
resolved base_url/api_mode instead of `base_url: ""`; ACP rejects the same
(ValueError surfaced by the command/protocol handler). Gateway persist runs
on a worker thread against the routed profile's config_path (multiplex-safe).
Cleared keys are removed from config.yaml rather than left as `null`. ACP
still never persists.

Kept `_normalize_main_model_assignment`: switch_model rejects a vendor name
posing as a provider (`moonshotai` -> "Unknown provider"), so the
vendor->aggregator repair is not a duplicate; E2E verified both branches.
No config migration: readers already coalesce `base_url: ""` to absent
(`_config_base_url_for_provider`) and gate api_mode on provider match
(`_provider_supports_explicit_api_mode`), so no stale-shape reader bug.

Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_model_persist_one_shape.py (four surfaces land
one block; same-route re-pick keeps the pin), tests/acp_adapter/
test_acp_dashboard_model_switch_validation.py (rejection + explicit
provider prefix). Replaces test_acp_set_model_explicit_provider.py and the
two TUI-only persist tests; tests that intercepted the old per-surface seams
(`cli.save_config_value`, `load_config_readonly`, `tui_gateway.server.
_persist_model_switch`) now intercept the canonical seam. Each fix
sabotage-verified red.

teknium1 9b9026e62f fix(kanban): drop the TUI empty-selection change and refit tests to the opt-in contract
Salvage follow-up to Xipong's #107736. Kept the core: `kanban` is a
configurable, default-off toolset whose check_fn answers the schema
build's own selection (ContextVar) instead of the legacy top-level
`toolsets` key, so `platform_toolsets.<platform>: [.., kanban]` — what
`hermes tools enable kanban --platform X` writes — actually reaches the
gateway agent's tool schema.

Dropped the `tui_gateway/server.py` change: turning an explicitly empty
CLI selection from "all" into "nothing" is a separate behaviour flip
already tracked by #107452, not part of this bug. The two TUI loader
tests that asserted `kanban` is auto-recovered onto a saved `[memory]`
list now assert the opposite: a configurable opt-in is never recovered.

Teknium fc71fb63e5 test(multiplex): invariants for the residue fixes; retire allowlist tests
- tests/gateway/test_multiplex_residue_parity.py: served profile reads its own
  sessions.*; per-turn bridge skips secondary scope; resolve_proxy_url reads the
  routed scope (and does not borrow the default's on a miss); a stale served
  turn never recreates an archived profile; MCP discovery runs per profile home.
- test_config.py: v43 migration removes multiplex_profile_allowlist.
- Allowlist tests deleted (feature removed) or rewritten to "served set = all
  live profiles"; the unserved cases now use a tombstone / missing dir.
- MCP discovery fixtures converted to the per-home set/dict slot.

Teknium 0dcadf6f41 revert: remove Collective Wisdom V1 (#94266)
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.

- 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

  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.

  ledger; Not now -> dismissal, Mute -> fixed options, Share -> resumable
  packaging flow, Install/Update -> plan command. Never publishes/installs.

- 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.

* 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

Pin Gateway 60cd2d6b613ae3cd4a6e65155d1142006d907e78 and byte-identical producer artifacts. Verify every content-order case and package-manifest binding. Validation: 186 focused Python tests, Ruff and contract verifier.

Siddharth Balyan 4bdd64b334 The free tier is created in one place, at boot, only behind HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING=1 (NS-847) (#107697)
* fix(auth): close the free tier's gaps against the gateway's welcome-tier contract

The inference gateway's welcome tier (NousResearch/api DOCS/anon-tier/plan.md) serves an
anonymous account exactly one model on its own host, refuses everything else with a structured
429, cross-refuses a request on the wrong host with a 400 (403 while the tier is dark), and
tells a signed-in account that still asks for `nous/welcome` what to switch to in an
`x-nous-model-switch` header. Four client-side gaps against that contract:

- Auxiliary calls were refused on every session. The auxiliary client asked the welcome host
  for the Portal's recommended compaction/vision model, a guaranteed 429 `model_not_free`
  before each fallback. On the welcome host it now uses `nous/welcome` (its backing model
  covers auxiliary work) and skips Nous for vision, which the welcome model does not take.

- The structured 429 body was never read. The classifier now parses `reason` /
  `retry_after` / `alternates` / `upgrade_url`: `model_not_free` and `feature_not_free` are
  non-retryable gates that fall back; `at_capacity`, `admission_closed` and `rate_limited`
  are rate limits that honour `retry_after` and never rotate the free tier's only credential.
  The wrong-host 400 and the dark-tier 403 are deterministic, so they abort this route and
  fall back instead of retrying or re-exchanging. The terminal paths say what happened and
  name the sign-in (`/login` in a chat, `hermes auth upgrade` in a terminal).

- The `x-nous-model-switch` header was ignored. The chat-completions transport records it
  beside the rate-limit and credits headers; the next call moves the session, and the config
  default when it still names `nous/welcome`, to the backing model the gateway named.

- A guest fell back to the paid host. With `inference_base_url` absent from the exchange or
  outside the host allowlist, routing defaulted to inference-api, where every request is a
  400. A guest now defaults to the welcome literal at the exchange, in the shared store's
  shape, and in effective routing.

* feat(auth): the free tier is set up on request; nous.guest_setup decides whether also on first use

A caller that names nous/welcome on a Nous route with no Nous identity in reach — the guided
setup's session (provider=nous, which skips the resolver's nothing-configured rung), the free-tier
picker row, a bare --provider nous pointed at it — is asking for the free tier. The OAuth runtime
rung now sets it up there instead of failing "not logged in", so the guided chat no longer races
the root profile's first-run mint.

nous.guest_setup is the policy seam: "auto" (default) keeps today's first-use setup wherever
nothing else is configured; "on-request" mints only when the free tier is asked for by name
(nous/welcome, /login, hermes auth upgrade, replacing a retired identity). Implicit callers —
the resolver's last rung, the first-run check, free_tier.status, the CLI's background setup, the
connector token path — still adopt what the shared store holds, so every profile follows the one
identity the guided setup created, but never create one on their own.

(cherry picked from commit 62ad1ff3ab200ea064975a32c502041b25910165)

* feat(auth): the guided setup provisions the free tier explicitly; nous.guest_setup is auto | explicit

Two questions govern the free tier: may it exist (nous.guest) and who may CREATE the identity
(nous.guest_setup). "auto" (default) keeps today's first-use setup wherever nothing else is
configured. "explicit" means Hermes never creates one on its own: the only creator is the new
provision_free_tier() primitive, exposed as the free_tier.provision RPC, which the guided setup
on Hermes Desktop calls as its first step — on the root gateway, before the setup profile and
before the guided chat exists — so the identity lands in the root store every profile reads
through and is there before any session asks for nous/welcome. That closes the race against the
backend's own setup, and makes "only when the setup-bot flow is used" literally true.

The earlier "on-request" tier is replaced: it minted whenever any caller named nous/welcome
(the hermes model row, --provider nous), which treated a model name as intent and was broader
than the guided setup. Under "explicit" a nous/welcome request with no identity fails "not
logged in" as before the free tier existed, and /login or hermes auth upgrade report nothing to
sign in from. Implicit callers still adopt an identity the shared store holds, and a retired
credential is replaced (a continuation, not a creation).

* fix(auth): remove the nous.guest_setup knob; the free tier is created on first use

`nous.guest_setup: auto | explicit` decided who may CREATE the free-tier identity. Under its
default every line it added was inert (`may_mint` always true), nothing in tree set `explicit`,
unknown values read as `auto`, and under `explicit` a CLI-only install could never get an
identity, which contradicts the first-run contract (first command mints, then chats).

The mint race the knob accompanied is already benign: every caller takes the profile lock then
the shared-store lock, and the loser adopts what the winner wrote. What makes the guided setup
win deterministically is `provision_free_tier()` behind the `free_tier.provision` RPC, which
stays. `nous.guest` remains the only free-tier policy.

Removed: `guest_setup_policy()` and its constants, the `explicit=` / `may_mint=` threading through
`ensure_portal_identity` and `_reconcile_and_provision`, the flag at the three replacement call
sites (now no-ops), the config default, the docs section, and the four `guest_setup` test-config
entries. The three policy tests that hold regardless of the knob are kept under
`TestExplicitProvision`; the two that only tested the knob are deleted.

(cherry picked from commit d8a50526d93c374c0067dd935b5a65055e0af261)

* fix(gateway): a server-driven model switch off nous/welcome does not evict the cached agent

When a signed-in account still asks the paid host for `nous/welcome`, the inference gateway
serves the current backing model and names it in `x-nous-model-switch`. `apply_model_switch`
moves the live session to that model and moves `config.yaml`'s default off the alias in the
same step. The messaging gateway's fallback-eviction check compares the agent's model with the
config default and evicts on any mismatch that is not a /model override, so when the config
write did not land (unreadable config, lock) the cached agent was evicted once per turn, and
prompt caching with it.

`apply_model_switch` now stamps the alias it moved the session off on the agent, and
`_is_intentional_model_switch` treats "agent moved off the alias the config still carries" as
deliberate, beside the existing /model override case. The check takes the agent and the config
model instead of a bare model string; its one caller in `_run_agent_evict_on_fallback` passes them.

* fix(auth): the free tier outranks implicit host credentials in provider resolution

On a fresh install with a leftover ~/.aws profile, resolve_provider("auto")
reached the Bedrock rung before the free-tier rung, so the first turn ran on
Bedrock and failed 403 while the free tier was still being minted in the
background at agent setup (NS-829). Live on a Mac with ~/.aws present: 28 s,
three retries, no answer; the next process then switched to nous/welcome.

The free-tier rung now sits directly above the Bedrock chain: when nous.guest
is on, an existing free-tier identity answers, else a blocking mint runs, and
only then does the boto chain get a say. Everything above is unchanged and
still wins: CLI creds, config.yaml model.provider, env keys, the OpenRouter
pool, a logged-in active_provider. nous.guest: false skips the rung, and a
failed mint still falls through to Bedrock and the no-provider guidance.

Tests: six precedence cases (identity present, fresh mint, free tier off, env
key still wins, sign-in still wins, failed mint falls through). The opt-out
test now neutralizes the AWS chain like the precedence tests do; on a machine
with ~/.aws it was failing for the same reason as the bug.

Live after the fix, same Mac, AWS credentials visible, isolated shared store:
identity minted 2 s in, turn on model=nous/welcome provider=nous, answer in
11 s.

* fix(auth): review follow-ups for the free-tier rung (NS-829)

- tests/agent/test_bedrock_integration.py: the Bedrock auto-detect test switches
  the free tier off; its contract is the boto chain, and the free tier now
  sits above it.
- gateway/run_notifications.py: the free-tier startup line reads auth.json
  before consulting the resolver, so a gateway boot on a machine with AWS
  credentials never mints or refreshes over the network.
- hermes_cli/anon_auth.py: module docstring says where the free tier sits in
  the ladder instead of "the ladder is untouched".
- tests/hermes_cli/test_provider_precedence.py: two invariant tests instead of
  six (parametrized ladder cases; a failed mint that returns None or raises
  falls through to Bedrock).

scripts/run_tests.sh on the five affected files: 147 passed, 0 failed.

* feat(auth): HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING=1 is the one launch gate for the free tier; HERMES_FORCE_GUEST is gone

The free tier is pre-GA. Until GA it must not exist for anyone who did not
ask for it: no identity minted, no portal traffic, no free-tier copy on any
surface. One environment variable now decides that, and one function reads it.

`guest_enabled()` returns False unless `HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING` is exactly
"1"; only then does `nous.guest` (the user's off switch) get consulted. Every
free-tier site already funnels through `guest_enabled()`, so the gate closes
minting, routing, connector entitlement, status lines and the picker row in
one place. With the variable unset, `resolve_provider("auto")` on a fresh
install raises `no_provider_configured` exactly as upstream does.

`HERMES_FORCE_GUEST` and `force_guest_mode()` are removed. They inverted the
gate (forced the tier ON over `nous.guest: false`), their "new" value re-minted
identities as a side effect of provider resolution, and `_has_any_provider_
configured` read them ahead of every other check, making the CLI a second
reader of a flag that must have exactly one. `_forced_new_done` and the
`force` parameter of `_reconcile_and_provision` go with them.

Supersedes the dev lever introduced in fcf9d11679 (rung 1) and hardened in
b5c162c3ec. Ruling: NS-845 Q1.1 (recorded on NS-847).

Not a user preference: the variable is never written to config.yaml or .env
and never shown in setup. It is deleted at GA together with its comment in
anon_auth.py. This is a deliberate, temporary exception to the "no new
HERMES_* env vars for non-secret config" rule.

Tests: fixtures set the gate instead of deleting the old lever; one new
invariant (`test_launch_gate_off_means_no_free_tier_at_all`) proves that "",
"0", "true" and "new" all leave the tier off with zero portal calls, red on the
previous commit. The `HERMES_FORCE_GUEST=new` re-mint test is deleted with the
feature.

* feat(auth): the free-tier identity is created in one place, at boot; every other site is a read

Before this commit eight sites could create a Nous free-tier identity as a
side effect of something else: resolving a provider, the CLI's first-run
check, the CLI's session setup (in the background beside an own key), a
connector bearer read, the desktop polling `free_tier.status`, the sign-in
precondition, the desktop's `free_tier.provision`, and the dead-credential
re-mint. A poll could mint. Provider resolution could hit the network. Two
of them raced each other on a fresh install.

Now `hermes_cli/free_tier_bootstrap.py::run_bootstrap` is the only creator.
`hermes serve` runs it on a daemon thread from `_lifespan` beside the other
background boots; `cmd_chat` runs it synchronously before the first-run
guard. It inventories credentials first (`resolve_provider("auto",
skip_free_tier=True)`: what would carry inference if the free tier did not
exist), creates the identity only when `guest_enabled()`, resolves inference,
records a `SetupRecord` in process memory and broadcasts ONE `setup.ready`
event. It runs on every boot; only the mint is gated.

`ensure_portal_identity` now requires `explicit=True` and raises otherwise.
Its callers are the bootstrap, the desktop's `free_tier.provision` (the
explicit retry when the boot could not create the identity) and the two
dead-credential replacements (`auth_nous.resolve_nous_runtime_credentials`,
`managed_tool_gateway._replace_dead_guest_token`). The background thread
path and `provision_free_tier` are deleted with their last callers.

Reads that used to mint and now only read: `auth.py::resolve_provider`
rung 7 (an existing identity still outranks the Bedrock chain, NS-829
ordering kept), `main.py::_has_any_provider_configured`,
`cli_agent_setup_mixin._ensure_runtime_credentials`,
`managed_tool_gateway.read_nous_access_token` (no identity -> None),
`anon_sign_in.run_sign_in` (no identity -> Unavailable),
`methods_free_tier` `free_tier.status`.

`setup.status` answers from the record for the launch profile, blocking up
to 8 s while the bootstrap is in flight so a client's first poll lands after
the identity exists rather than racing it; a named profile, or a process
that never ran the bootstrap, keeps today's live probe. The record's fields
ride along additively (`ready`, `free_tier`, `other_providers`,
`inference_provider`).

Identity and inference are decoupled (NS-845 Q1.3): the mint sets
`active_provider="nous"` only when the inventory found nothing else usable
(`_mint_locked(carries_inference=)`); an adopted account always does. A token
refresh no longer re-elects the provider it refreshed
(`_save_provider_state_to_source` writes credentials, not the user's
choice) — that write was how an own-key install ended up on the free tier
after the first connector call.

Supersedes the mint sites in fcf9d11679, a42d0748fc (first-run check),
bbbaa8935a (CLI background setup), 0179efc989 (`free_tier.status` mint),
62ad1ff3ab / c63d2c935c / d8a50526d9 (the `nous.guest_setup` knob and
`provision_free_tier`), and a04b05260c (blocking mint in the resolver).
Ruling: NS-845 Q1.2 + Q1.3, recorded on NS-847.

Tests: `TestBootstrapIsTheOneCreator` (one mint per process; own key keeps
inference; reads never reach the portal; a refused mint is memoised),
`free_tier.status` fails loudly if it ever calls the creator, the resolver
stub fails loudly if resolution ever mints, `setup.status` reads the record,
`skip_free_tier` proves the inventory question. The three sign-in tests for
the deleted pre-mint collapse into one (`no identity -> Unavailable, zero
portal calls`). Live: real `_lifespan` boot with a fake portal, gate on and
off (/tmp/ns847-recon/evidence/e2e-rung5-c2-serve-boot.txt), and the CLI
matrix incl. an own-key cell (e2e-rung5-c2-bootstrap.txt), 20/20.

* fix(credits): the welcome host is free-tier evidence, so a free-tier identity never sees "run /topup"

A free-tier identity carries $0 by design, so the portal seed reports
`paid_access=False` for it. `is_free_tier_model` did not know the welcome
host, read that as a depleted account, and every free-tier turn ended with
the credits-depleted notice telling the user to top up an account they do
not have.

Rule (4) in `is_free_tier_model`: a `base_url` on the Nous welcome host
(`anon_auth.route_is_welcome_host`) is the free tier. The host is the
evidence, not the model name: the paid inference host can serve
`nous/welcome` to a named account and that account's depletion is real, so
`("nous/welcome", <inference host>)` stays False. Local data only, like the
three rules above it.

Restores the two contracts dropped by hermes-magic 674e11d1eaa (the
prototype line ran without unit tests): the welcome host is free without
any pricing evidence; the model name alone is not. The first is red without
this fix.

* fix(copy): free-tier text stops promising a connector transfer and never names the config key

Sign-in copy on every surface said "Sign in to keep your connectors" and
ended with "Your connectors are kept." The transfer registry that would
make that true is empty (NS-821): nothing carries over today. The copy now
says what signing in does give ("unlock more models and tools") and the
completion line names the account, not a transfer. The docs page loses the
"connectors carry over" paragraph for the same reason.

The picker's off-state line exposed `nous.guest: false` and the word
"guest"; user copy names the free tier only (R-USR-1).

The docs page gains the pre-rollout note: until GA nothing on it happens
without `HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING=1`. Its "first command mints" and
"replaced on next use" sentences now describe the boot bootstrap.

zh is a strict locale: the `freeTier` block was English placeholder text
copied from `en`; it is now Chinese. `connectorsKept` is renamed
`completedBody` since it no longer talks about connectors.

* feat(desktop): the free-tier launch flag is decided once in Electron and stamped onto every backend spawn

The Python backend reads `HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING` and treats exactly "1"
as on. Until now nothing in the desktop set it, so a packaged app could
never turn the free tier on, and a backend spawned by the app could
disagree with the app about whether the tier was live.

`electron/guest-onboarding.ts` owns the decision: `guestOnboardingEnabled`
is true when the launch env has `HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING=1` or argv has
`--guest-onboarding` (the packaged-app spelling). It is read ONCE at launch
into a module constant. `desktopBackendSpawnEnv` wraps every backend env
as the outermost call and writes the flag LAST, as "1" or an explicit "0",
so no earlier spread (`process.env`, `backend.env`) can resurrect a stray
value from the parent shell.

Stamped onto all three spawn sites: the primary `serve` spawn, the pooled
per-profile spawn, and the remote SSH `exec env ...` command (which gains
` HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING=1` only when on). The embedded terminal PTY and
the backend probes are not backend spawns and do not get it: a
`hermes --tui` typed in the pane must not mint.

The renderer learns the same fact read-only through the existing
`hermes:launch-flags` sync IPC (`guestOnboarding`) and preload
(`window.hermesDesktop.guestOnboardingEnabled`).

Ruling: NS-845 Q1.1 / Q2 (env var is the contract, `--guest-onboarding`
maps to it in main). Two invariant tests on the pure helpers: only "1" or
the argv flag enables; the spawn env carries "1"/"0" as the last word and
preserves every other key.

* feat(desktop): the renderer learns free-tier readiness from one `setup.ready` push, not a 60 s poll

The backend's boot bootstrap now announces `setup.ready` once, after it has
created (or refused) the free-tier identity and resolved the inference
route. The renderer used to discover both by polling `setup.status`,
`setup.runtime_check` and `free_tier.status` every 60 s from
`useStatusSnapshot`; a fresh install's chip, notice strip and onboarding
overlay could sit stale for up to a minute after boot, and three RPCs a
minute per window kept asking a question whose answer changes only at
boundaries the backend already announces.

`handleLifecycleEvent` routes `setup.ready` (active source only, like
`skin.changed`) to `notifySetupReady()`, a one-shot tick atom in
`live-sync.ts` beside the other change ticks. `useStatusSnapshot` listens
to it and runs one readiness round at once (`setup.status` +
`setup.runtime_check` + `free_tier.status`). The readiness legs also run
once on open and on return from another app, as today. The 60 s tick keeps
only `getStatus()`.

`SetupStatusSnapshot` types the record's additive fields (`ready`,
`free_tier`, `other_providers`, `inference_provider`); readiness semantics
are unchanged and still key on `provider_configured` + `runtime_check`.

Ruling: NS-845 Q1.2 (renderer half). Tests: the lifecycle branch fires one
refresh from the active source and none from another; the snapshot hook's
contract is three legs on open, one leg on the tick.

* fix(cli): the banner names the free tier's model instead of "no model configured"

The welcome banner prints before credentials resolve, so on a fresh install
`model` is empty and the banner said, in red, "no model configured — run
/model or hermes setup". Under the free tier that is false: the route is
already known from local state (identity on disk, tier on), and the first
message will run on `nous/welcome`.

`_banner_left_lines` now asks the route the same question when `model` is
empty (`guest_carries_inference()`, a local read) and shows `welcome · Nous
Research`. When nothing resolves the red line stays. Ruling: NS-845 ("the
banner's 'no model configured' line reads the resolved route").

Live: fresh HERMES_HOME + fake portal, gate on -> `welcome · Nous Research`;
gate off -> the red line, zero portal calls.

* fix(aux): vision on the free tier uses nous/welcome too

The text-only modality on the gateway's `nous/welcome` row is DeepSeek V4 Flash's, the
backing model until the repoint; `z-ai/glm-5.3-flash` is natively multimodal and the
repoint declares the welcome row `text+image->text`. Skipping Nous for vision on the
welcome host would have sent every image step past the free tier for no reason, so the
auxiliary client pins the route's one model for every lane. A backing model that takes
no images answers with the upstream's own error, which the ladder handles as it always has.

* fix(gateway): hermes gateway run is a boot owner of the free tier too

Rung 5 made every demand-time free-tier site a read: resolve_provider,
the connector token, the /login precondition. That is only correct if
every process that can reach those sites ran the bootstrap first. The
CLI (cmd_chat) and hermes serve (_lifespan) did; the standalone
messaging gateway did not. A fresh HERMES_HOME with the gate on and
`hermes gateway run` reached provider resolution with no identity to
consume, and /login returned Unavailable. Reported by @andrexibiza on
#107697 (P1).

GatewayRunner.start now runs `free_tier_bootstrap.run_bootstrap` on an
executor thread right after startup recovery and BEFORE any adapter
connects, so a fast first DM cannot arrive with nothing to resolve. It
is its own step, not part of the turn-machinery warm-up: the warm-up is
an optimisation with an off switch (HERMES_STARTUP_WARMUP_TIMEOUT<=0);
the bootstrap is correctness and must always run. With the gate unset it
is a local inventory and no network.

Live, real GatewayRunner.start against a fake portal in a fresh home:
  gate on   -> 1 create, identity persisted, resolve_runtime_provider=nous,
               /login precondition sees the identity
  gate off  -> 0 portal calls, no identity, no_provider_configured
Before the fix the gate-on row was identical to the gate-off row.

Test: the bootstrap seam runs before _start_prefilter_platforms and
delegates to the one creator. Red on 5554eb6993 (no seam), green here.

Siddharth Balyan c22a8d8e3f Seeded sessions survive a gateway restart and store their seed once (tui_gateway) (#107549)
* fix(tui-gateway): a seeded session is durable at create, and its seed is written once

session.create accepts opening messages. Three defects sat in that path:

- A seeded session without a parent was never persisted at create, so a
  restart before the first prompt lost it and session.resume answered
  4007. Only branch children (#93959) were persisted up front. The
  same rationale applies to any seeded create: seeded content is
  intent, not an abandoned draft. Parentless seeds now persist their
  row, transcript and client title at create; empty drafts stay lazy.
- _coerce_seed_history dropped display_kind, so a seeded row tagged
  "hidden" (model-facing scaffolding) rendered as a user bubble. The
  coercion keeps "hidden" and only "hidden"; every other kind is
  stamped by the gateway at turn time and is not accepted from the wire.
- A branch child's seed was written twice: _seed_branch_row copied it at
  create but never marked it persisted, so the first prompt's
  _persist_branch_seed appended the copy again. The create path now
  sets _branch_seed_persisted, and the gate is a create-time `seeded`
  stamp instead of parent_session_id, so a resumed session (whose
  history comes from the DB) can never re-append its transcript.

Two invariant tests, both red on main: a parentless seed survives a
gateway restart with the hidden row kept out of the wire transcript and
not re-written by the first-submit path; a branch child's seed is stored
exactly once. The reasoning-fields fixture stamps `seeded`, the flag
session.create sets.

* fix(tui-gateway): a hidden seed row stays out of the list preview and the create count

Live-testing the seeded create on every surface showed two places where
the newly durable hidden row (display_kind="hidden") still surfaced:

- session.list built a session's preview from its first user row with no
  display_kind filter, so a hidden opening row (model-facing scaffolding
  the gateway never paints) became the sidebar preview. The preview
  predicate now skips hidden rows, in every listing query that shares it.
- session.create reported message_count as the raw seed length while its
  messages array already filtered the hidden row (2 vs 1). It now counts
  what is on the wire, the same rule session.resume applies.

Both are covered by the existing seeded-create test: the create count
equals the wire transcript, and the preview of a session whose first
user row is hidden is its first visible user row.

* fix(tui-gateway): a live unpersisted resume counts the wire transcript

session.resume on a live session that has no row yet reported message_count as
the raw history length while its messages array was already filtered, the same
mismatch the previous commit fixed on session.create. Count the wire, as the
cold, deferred and reuse-live resume paths already do.

* chore: retrigger CI (zero-job dispatch failure, auto-heal)

Teknium 06dc51d62d fix: verification evidence ledger is inert while verify_on_stop is off
The ledger in verification_evidence.db exists only to feed the verify-on-stop
guard, but the recorder kept running on every foreground terminal command and
every file edit after #53552 turned the guard off by default. Users who never
opted in still accumulated a multi-MB database (7 MB / 4.6k rows on one install).

Every ledger entry point (record_terminal_result, record_verify_run,
mark_workspace_edited, verification_status) now checks verify_on_stop_enabled()
first and returns without opening or creating the database when the guard is
off. verification_status reports {"status": "disabled"} in that case; no client
consumes the verification.status RPC yet, so nothing downstream changes.

Existing ledger tests pin HERMES_VERIFY_ON_STOP=1 since they exercise the ledger
itself; the new test proves the off path never creates the file (red on base).

Ryan Tucker de25545dce fix(tui_gateway): fan session events out instead of rebinding the transport slot
A session held exactly one transport, and prompt.submit, session.resume, session.activate, and the queued-prompt drain all rebound that slot. A second client therefore took the stream away from the first: the earlier client stopped receiving the turn it was already rendering, and either client disconnecting parked the whole session on the drop sentinel.

FanoutTransport goes in the same slot and satisfies the same Transport protocol, so write_json and every other reader of the slot are unchanged. It delivers each frame to a snapshot of its peers, concurrently when more than one peer is attached and the caller is not on an event loop, and prunes any peer that returns False or raises. A dead client is dropped; a slow one costs the emitter at most one write timeout per frame rather than one per peer. Request/response RPCs are unaffected: they still answer on the request's context-bound transport, so a client only ever sees replies to its own calls.

The rebind sites become attach sites through _attach_session_transport, whose ladder keeps the single-client shape identical. The same object already in the slot is a no-op; an empty, stdio, or parked slot is taken outright; only the arrival of a second live client wraps both. The queued-prompt drain is included because it pinned the drained turn to the queuer and silenced everyone else. A non-peer newcomer such as stdio or the drop sentinel never displaces a live client, so an activate dispatched without a bound websocket cannot silence the socket that owns the session.

Disconnect detaches first. A session that retains another client keeps streaming and is neither parked nor reaped, and only the clientless ones follow the existing close_on_disconnect and park-sentinel path, so a single-client disconnect, the orphan reaper, and its grace window behave as before. _ws_session_is_orphaned is unchanged: it still asks whether the drop sentinel is in the slot, and a fan-out is never the sentinel, so a session that still has a peer is never reported as orphaned.

Attach performs no entitlement check: any authenticated peer may mirror any session.

The fan-out architecture follows the approach in #40822 by @OmarB97.

What the slot's later history forces. _close_sessions_for_transport drops the #83716 rebind-to-the-most-recent-surviving-viewer, which fan-out membership subsumes — a pop-out window is a peer, so a session that still shows in one is never returned as clientless — and keeps the #77129 revalidation before parking, now expressed as a liveness check under _session_transport_lock so it is race-free against attach and detach. _transport_is_live_peer defers its last answer to _transport_is_dead: a socket that already latched _closed is a departed client, and admitting it would keep a session out of both the park and the reap. _transport_is_dead also learns the fan-out: a FanoutTransport with no live peer is dead, so a session whose peers were all pruned by failed writes cannot outlive the TTL and LRU reapers. The upstream test that pinned the #83716 rebind, test_close_transport_rebinds_session_to_remaining_viewer, is re-expressed in fan-out terms: both windows attached, the pop-out closes, the session stays with the main window unparked and still receiving frames.

Teknium 7f80efc294 fix(tui): post-turn completion drain resolves ownership once; barrier test uses a watch
Rebasing onto main surfaced three reds in tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py.

Two were a real double-check: _run_post_turn_followups already drains the
completion queue through _session_owns_notification_event, then handed the
events to _notif_handle_ready, which re-ran the belongs-elsewhere and
requires-owner gates on every event — a second compression-lineage DB
lookup per notification for events the caller had just proven ours.
_notif_handle_ready/_notif_handle_event take an explicit owned=True from
the post-turn path and skip only the ownership gates (consumed/dedup/turn
claiming still run). The poller path is unchanged (owned defaults False).

The third, test_run_prompt_submit_requeues_all_unstarted_notifications_with_real_threading,
asserted that three consecutive completions produce one in-flight turn plus
two requeued events; under this PR's contract (#104671) consecutive
completions share one turn, so the first event is now a watch_match — the
documented turn barrier — and the test keeps proving that the two
completions behind an in-flight notification turn are never lost.

A/B: revert the tui_gateway hunks and the two lineage tests fail with
ownership_checks recorded twice; restore and all 11 test_run_prompt_submit
tests pass.

Hermes Agent ab1a6d016a test(display): encode provenance contract in tilde assertions
Two tests still encoded the pre-PR behaviour that the PR removes:

- tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py: the mirrored fixture carries no
  `context_estimated` flag, so under the PR's rule it is provider-reported
  usage and must render without `~`. The old expectation asserted the
  unconditional tilde main used to emit. Assert the flag-less case is
  unmarked and, in the same test, flip `context_estimated` both ways to
  pin that only the estimate carries `~` in the count and the percent.

- ui-tui appChromeStatusRule.test.tsx: `text.includes('~')` matched the
  `~/repo` cwd label, so the "not estimated" arm was always true. Extract
  the rendered context token and assert the tilde on that token only.

Teknium 16370ae539 fix(tui_gateway): setup.status / setup.runtime_check answer for the requested profile
Port the Python half of PR #94147: both readiness RPCs accept an optional
`profile` and bind that profile's HERMES_HOME + .env secret scope for the
duration of the check via `_session_profile_runtime_scope` (ContextVars,
so concurrent checks stay isolated). Unknown profile → ok=False with an
explicit error instead of quietly reporting the launch profile's readiness.

`_has_any_provider_configured(strict_profile_scope=True)` reads provider
env only from the bound secret scope (never os.environ) and skips the
host-wide fallbacks (gh auth, Claude Code credentials, api-key
active_provider in auth.json) that describe the launch host, not the
target profile. Unscoped callers are byte-identical to before.

The desktop TS half of #94147 targets plugin.js, which was deleted on main;
it needs a recut on create-dialog.tsx.

Supersedes #94147 (python half)

Teknium c7e2e0b779 feat(fast): bounded /fast auto|cold windows behind one route-aware gate
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.

Teknium aa80626764 fix(tui-gateway): adopt late compute-host compress acks instead of a false 120s timeout (#97948)
Manual /compress on a compute-host (turn_isolation) session blocked its RPC
waiter for a hard-coded 120s, answered error 5019, and then DROPPED the
host's late `control.ack`: HostSupervisor.control() popped the pending
queue in `finally`, so `_handle_host_frame` had nothing to deliver to. The
host kept compressing, succeeded minutes later, rotated the session — and
the gateway session never mirrored the new session_key/history_version and
the desktop never refreshed its transcript.

- host_supervisor: `control(..., on_late_ack=)` leaves a one-shot handler
  registered when the waiter times out; control.ack/control.error/error
  frames for that request_id fire it (bounded: 30min TTL, cap 64). A host
  crash fails outstanding handlers with a synthetic control.error.
- server: `_compute_host_compress_wait_seconds()` derives the wait from
  `compression.context_total_ceiling_seconds` (+30s slack, floor 120s,
  cap 630s) instead of the literal 120. `_adopt_late_compute_host_compress_ack`
  applies the metadata mirror and emits the same `session.info` a normal
  compress does plus the existing `status.update kind=compacted` edge; a
  late error goes out through the existing `error` event.
- session.compress / slash.compress (methods_tools + _mirror_slash_side_effects):
  on waiter timeout answer `status: pending` (not 5019) and register the
  late-ack handler.
- desktop: SESSION_COMPRESS_TIMEOUT_MS 120s -> 660s (above the gateway cap);
  `status: 'pending'` renders as an info notice, not `error:`; the
  `compacted` status edge rehydrates an idle active session's transcript
  (mid-turn compaction still defers to the turn settle path).

Minimal extraction of the design in #99630 by @vsd2807 (design trace by
@andrexibiza and @JoaoMarcos44 in the #97948 thread); no new DB tables,
modules, or polling protocol.

ClintonEmok 78eb4ebbfc fix(gateway): compensate half-written seeded branches + observable failures
Review follow-up on #93959:

1. Partial-failure window: if the row commits but the transcript copy or
   title write fails, the durable-but-empty child defeated the lazy
   first-prompt fallback (_ensure_session_db_row is INSERT OR IGNORE), so
   the renderer fail-latched on a transcript-less session again. The seed
   block now compensates: delete just this child so the lazy path can
   retry cleanly. Disk-full is exempt — deleting data on a full disk makes
   things worse.

2. Silent degradation: the best-effort catch now logs at WARNING with
   exc_info instead of DEBUG, so a regression in this user-facing path is
   observable without enabling debug logs.

Tests: compensation deletes the half-written row and preserves
pending_title; disk-full keeps the row and surfaces the WARNING.

ClintonEmok 6556439765 fix(gateway): persist seeded branch children at session.create (#93959)
Desktop branch creation hung on an infinite spinner and lost the branch
on restart. Root cause: the renderer branches via session.create with
parent_session_id + a seeded transcript, but session.create defers the
DB row to the first prompt (the draft-hygiene contract). The renderer's
post-create resume then re-fetches the fresh child through REST and
defer_history hydration — both read the DB. An unpersisted child 404s
and hydrates empty, the client fail-latch (sessionShouldHaveTranscript +
empty messages) refuses to bind a "transcript-less" session, and the
user sees a spinner forever; on restart the rowless child vanishes and
the optimistic "Draft: Branch N" entry disappears with it.

A seeded branch is explicit user intent, not an abandoned draft.
session.create now persists the child immediately when both
parent_session_id AND seeded history are present:

- Row created in the PARENT's profile-scoped state.db, stamped with
  _branched_from + parent_session_id (same shape as TUI /branch).
- Seeded transcript copied via append_messages_batch so REST prefetch
  and defer_history hydration find it on the first read.
- Title assigned from get_next_title_in_lineage(parent) and cleared
  from pending_title — the branch lands in the parent's lineage instead
  of falling back to a message-preview name.

Persistence is best-effort: a broken DB logs and lets create succeed,
leaving the lazy first-prompt path as fallback. Plain drafts keep the
lazy-row contract unchanged.

emozilla 5fee992696 test(gateway): build-failure stub must fire its ready event
prompt.submit now retries a completed failed build (installing a fresh
unset agent_ready before rebuilding), so a no-op _start_agent_build stub
leaves the patient wait blocking forever — the turn thread outlived the
test and the whole file hit the per-file timeout on CI. Stub a faithful
failing build instead: set agent_error, fire the session's current
ready event. The pinned contract (visible failure, no silent drop) is
unchanged.

Teknium 67de93862c fix(tui-gateway): gate the ws-orphan interrupt of running turns on activity staleness
The 20s ws-orphan grace (14b50f5edd) interrupts a RUNNING turn whenever
the client is absent past the grace window — killing healthy long turns
on deliberate client absence (desktop closed, PC asleep, mobile
backgrounded, Electron tab-switch throttling, desktop update/relaunch).

The reaper now interrupts a detached running turn ONLY when BOTH the
client is absent past the grace AND the turn's activity clock is stale
(seconds_since_activity >= dashboard.ws_orphan_activity_stale_s,
default 600s — matching agent.turn_liveness.timeout_s semantics from
PR #99758). A detached-but-actively-producing turn keeps running to
completion (the sentinel transport already buffers detached emits);
a detached AND activity-stale turn is interrupted/reaped as today.
Non-running orphaned sessions keep current behavior. Reuses the
existing AIAgent.get_activity_summary() clock — no parallel tracker
(rejected in PR #4864).

kshitijk4poor db339f0051 fix(state): consolidate gateway SessionDB writers via process-wide shared registry
A gateway process opened state.db from ~12 call sites, each minting its
own writer connection, self._lock, close-time WAL checkpoint, and
token-writer thread. With N independent writers on one WAL file, one
connection's close-time checkpoint could race another's growth — the
lost/reordered-page-write signature across 11+ incidents (#90837).

Adds hermes_state_registry.py: a process-wide, per-path, refcounted
shared registry owning the writer boundary.

- acquire(path): same resolved path returns the same instance (one
  writer connection, one lock, one token-writer thread) for every
  long-lived in-process caller (gateway runner, SessionStore, per-agent
  lazy recall, cron per-job, mirror, channel_directory, slash_commands,
  shutdown_flush, session_search, react_to_message, delegate, mcp_serve,
  auto_archive, tui_gateway).
- close() on a shared instance is a NO-OP — the registry owns the
  lifecycle, so one caller's close can never tear down a writer other
  callers still hold.
- Generation-aware retirement on inode change: a replaced state.db
  RETIRES the live generation (never lent again) but keeps it alive for
  existing holders; release is object-keyed so holders of the old
  generation drain it independently of the new one. The old
  generation's own write path still fails with the typed
  StateDbReplacedError (existing protection, unchanged).
- Replacement-open failure leaves NO registry entry for the path —
  the next acquire retries fresh, never hands out a closed stale object.
- All teardown runs OUTSIDE the registry lock: a final release's WAL
  checkpoint can never stall acquisition for every state.db.
- close_shared_session_dbs() at gateway shutdown drains every
  generation (live + retired) as the final safety net.

CLI one-shots, recovery flows, and read-only cross-profile opens keep
using SessionDB() directly with their own close() — only long-lived
in-process sites route through the registry.

References #90837 (root-cause tracker stays open: the #10 EOF signature
and the WAL-lifecycle A/B verdict remain under investigation there).

Futahua a5f0fbb262 fix(sessions): per-session exclusivity is correctness, not a capacity policy
Cherry-picked from PR #94595 (author: Futahua) onto current main, with the
maintainer-review revision points folded in during the rebase:

- the lease engages UNCONDITIONALLY: try_acquire_active_session no longer
  returns a disabled no-op lease when max_concurrent_sessions is unset;
  the concurrency cap stays an orthogonal, optional policy checked second
- ownership uncertainty fails CLOSED (SESSION_COORDINATION_UNAVAILABLE)
  instead of degrading to an untracked go-ahead: a corrupt/unreadable
  registry must not be collapsed into 'no owner exists' (review blocker 2)
- the ownership admission sits at the _run_prompt_submit chokepoint that
  EVERY fresh turn source crosses, and crash auto-continue acquires (or
  bails) BEFORE emitting message.start — closing the #94778 bypass where
  backend B's auto-continue ran a duplicate turn while backend A was live
  (review blocker 1)
- the TUI gateway claim helper fails closed on claim exceptions for every
  surface, not just desktop
- CLI and messaging-gateway call sites pass live_session_id metadata so
  the (pid, live id) re-entrancy identity protects them from self-fencing
  on a leaked lease

Teknium 4396253aed fix(gateway): gate compute-host interrupt forward on hosted activity
Follow-up to the salvaged #98571: forward the interrupt to the compute
host whenever the parent 'running' mirror is stale, but only for
sessions that actually have hosted activity — HostSupervisor.interrupt()

child just to deliver an interrupt for an idle lazy session.

Adds a regression test asserting the idle-lazy-session no-spawn path.

Alvin T. Veroy e17fd0a708 fix(state): decode errors now reach the heal path and fail loud in TUI (residual #98924 surfaces)
Companion to #98935, which fixes _fts_table_probe itself. This covers the
surfaces that PR does not touch:

- web_server._open_session_db_at_path: the one-writable-open heal only
  caught sqlite3.DatabaseError; a raw UnicodeDecodeError (pysqlite failing
  to decode SQLite's own error message over corrupt file bytes) bypassed
  it, so the heal documented for malformed schema never fired (#98924
  Failure 1). Both catches widened; decode errors dispatch to the heal.
- SessionSchemaMixin._recover_stale_fts_locked: drop-and-recreate skipped
  vtables whose probe raised UnicodeDecodeError, the same too-narrow
  catch the issue identified in the probe.
- TUI gateway: _ensure_session_db_row returned silently when the store
  could not open, so prompt.submit streamed the turn while persisting
  nothing (#98924 Failure 2). It now returns False and prompt.submit
  fails the RPC with code 5072 so desktop maps it to a toast, mirroring
  the disk-full/5070 convention. session.create stays silent per its
  pinned degraded-mode contract.

Teknium 6874b99d49 fix(sessions): stamp launch-profile name on new session rows instead of NULL
Sessions created on the launch/default profile were persisted with
profile_name = NULL by all three writers (run_agent._ensure_db_session
None'd out 'default'; the desktop backend's _ensure_session_db_row and
session.branch passed None when no profile_home override was set).

NULL used to mean 'launch profile' by convention, but the desktop now
keys sessions by (profile, id), filters the sidebar by profile scope,
and resolves @session:<profile>/<id> deep links by profile match — a
NULL row matches nothing, so sessions created around a profile switch
vanished from the sidebar and their deep links could not be opened
(#99222). The #94724 one-shot legacy-owner backfill stamps literal
'default' onto old NULL rows, so writers minting NEW NULL rows after
that backfill ran recreated the exact state it exists to repair.

Stamp the real profile name at creation time in all three writers.
E2E-verified against a temp HERMES_HOME: both the desktop create path
and the agent path now persist profile_name='default'.

Extends PR #98250's classic-CLI status-bar upgrades to the Ink TUI:

lorzl 99a6852019 fix(tui-gateway): heal or fall back when a resumed session's provider is stale
A session row persists the provider identity a chat actually used. When that

entry deleted, or a provider renamed oldone->newone), Desktop/TUI resume
restores the stale name into agent init and dies with:

  agent init failed: Unknown provider '<name>'

while the CLI resumes the same session fine with the configured default.

  built-in -> providers: -> custom_providers: -> models.dev)
- _stored_session_runtime_overrides: heal a non-routable provider via
  canonical_custom_identity (base_url -> model -> configured provider),
  drop to the configured default when unrecoverable, and clear the stale
  base_url after healing so a dead endpoint cannot override the registry URL
- _start_agent_build: gate deferred-resume overrides on provider routability;
  when the stored provider is gone, prefer the model the user picked for THIS
  session, else the configured default
- tests: is_routable_provider cases, heal/fallback round-trips, gate checks

Justin Johnson c19849cd02 fix(desktop): stop the status-stack poll storming a dead session with 4001s
The composer status stack polls `process.list` every 5s while a background
process row is on screen. `process.list` is session-scoped, so against a
runtime id the gateway no longer holds it returns 4001 "session not found".

`refreshBackgroundProcesses` swallowed *every* failure with a bare `catch {}`
commented "transient socket loss". A gone session is not transient: the poll
re-sent the same dead runtime id every 5 seconds for the lifetime of the
window. On one machine this produced 31,518 gateway rejections in a day
(vs 663 the day before), 18,614 of them against a single runtime id, and it
is what users see reported as "sessions stopped with a session not found
error" after an update.

The trigger is a reconnect, not the poll itself: anything that mints a fresh
runtime (gateway restart, the #94219 reconnect/replay work, an idle-reaped
pooled backend) strands the id the status stack is still holding, and nothing
in this path ever re-checked it.

Distinguish the two failure classes:

- 4001 / "session not found" is TERMINAL for that runtime id — latch the id
  and stop polling it.
- A timeout or transport error is transient — keep retrying, since the
  session may well still be alive. Misclassifying that direction would
  silently freeze the status stack on a healthy session.

The latch is cleared when the status stack (re)binds a session id, so a
session that comes back under a fresh runtime resumes polling normally
rather than staying dark for the life of the app.

Also name the method in the gateway's 4001 warning. That line was added in
c305839442 "for diagnosability", but without the RPC name it cannot say WHICH
client call is looping — the reason this storm could not be attributed from
the logs alone. A ContextVar set in `handle_request` carries it; it is
diagnostic only and never used for authorization.

Tests:
- composer-status: 4001 stops the poll, a timeout does not, one gone session
  never suppresses a healthy sibling, and a rebind resumes polling.
- tui_gateway: the rejection warning names the method.
