Every PLUGIN-COMPAT __getattr__ now calls hermes_cli.plugin_compat.warn_once(facade, name, target) before
resolving, emitting a HermesPluginCompatWarning (FutureWarning) once per process per name: old path, new
path, removal target. Importing a facade for its live API stays silent; only resolving a moved name warns.
COMPAT_MANIFEST.md documents the warning and how to silence it during migration.
Verified the runtime never routes through a pointer: every entry point (run_agent, cli, hermes_cli.main,
gateway.run, tui_gateway.server, web_server, model_tools + tool discovery, hermes_state, cron.scheduler,
browser_tool, mcp_tool, kanban, auth) imports clean and `hermes doctor` runs end to end with the warning
promoted to an error.
Also restores the check_compat_pointers CI step to .github/workflows/lint.yml, which a0be177aac dropped
when the compat layer was regenerated (the lint script itself was present; the workflow step was not).
hermes_cli/plugin_compat.py, tests/test_plugin_compat_warning.py and the two-line insert per facade are
part of the compat layer and go away with it.
The Sep 2026 decomposition (PR #102117) makes internal import paths a non-API: names now live in
the focused modules that define them. This commit is the ONLY thing keeping the old paths alive,
so external plugins have time to update. It is deliberately a single, unsquashed commit:
git revert <this sha>
removes every shim, stub and manifest at once on the announced date. Nothing in-tree may depend on
these pointers: scripts/check_compat_pointers.py (wired into lint.yml) fails CI if it does.
What it adds (see COMPAT_MANIFEST.md, compat_manifest.json):
- 332 facade modules get one delimited `PLUGIN-COMPAT` block appended at the end of the file
- 1,172 moved names resolved lazily via a module `__getattr__` (PEP 562) — never a top-level import,
so no import cycles; facades that already had `__getattr__` get a chained one
- 592 third-party/stdlib names the old modules used to expose, with their original import statements
- 266 public definitions that had been deleted as unused, restored byte-for-byte from the pre-decomposition
tree (+40 private helpers and 16 imports pulled in only because a restored definition needs them)
- 3 deleted modules recreated as re-export stubs (gateway/startup_watchdog, hermes_cli/observability/
relay_runtime, tools/environments/modal_utils)
- private names (`_x`) get no pointer: they were never API (3,792 skipped)
Verified: all 335 touched modules import under a fresh HERMES_HOME and every manifest name resolves;
the lint reports zero in-tree uses; ruff clean; targeted suites unchanged.
For each issue anchor present in BASE 63279301bc non-test .py and absent on HEAD, the BASE comment/docstring block was re-attached at the HEAD location of the code it explained (matched by the distinctive code line / enclosing def). Sentences already covered by an existing HEAD comment were deduped; the issue number always survives. Insert-only: no code lines changed.
Post-review cleanup on the salvage stack:
- The re-warn-after-reset guard now drives on_session_reset() instead of
the private helper, so a site regressing to a bare rearm-zero fails it.
- One _over_threshold_warnings() helper replaces four inline caplog filters.
- Comment the redundant None check that narrows current_tokens for ty.
Follow-up to the salvaged #101894 (@jwilson411). The over-threshold
"reclamation did not run" warning is deduped on (reason, rearm mark), and
the key was only cleared when a prune committed. Every other path that
zeroes the rearm mark — compress(), on_session_reset/on_session_end,
bind_session_state, update_model — left the key in place, so a lockout
that warned at rearm=0, then a full compaction, then the same lockout
again was silent, contradicting the helper's own "warns again" contract
(and leaking the key across sessions on a rebound compressor).
- ContextCompressor._reset_proactive_prune_rearm(): one helper for the
five rearm-to-zero sites; clears the dedup key alongside the mark.
- _warn_reclamation_no_op(): dropping back under threshold releases the
key (mirrors _clear_context_overflow_warn semantics on the agent side).
- test_proactive_prune_loop_wiring: the attempts_exhausted fixture now
models the only state the real engine can produce for that branch
(should_compress() is should_compress_info()[0]) — budget spent
(max_compression_attempts=0) with the engine saying RUN, instead of
should_compress=False paired with (True, None).
- Two guards: lockout warns again after a rearm reset; dropping under
threshold releases the key. Both fail with the clears removed.
Message-only rearm could sit just above the body estimate while provider
prompt_tokens (system + tool schemas) already exceeded threshold_tokens,
so prune no-oped forever with no log. Bypass that rearm short-circuit on
the billed basis, warn once when over-threshold reclamation no-ops, and
name attempts_exhausted when should_compress_info says run but the loop
skips.
Fixes#101889
Review follow-ups on the in-flight replay:
- Run _sanitize_tool_pairs BEFORE the re-append. Its trailing-in-flight
exemption (#79278) walks back from the list end; with the replay user row
there, a genuinely pending assistant(tool_calls) looked orphaned and had its
calls stripped, so the executor's late tool result was dropped.
- When the restatement is merged onto a user-pinned summary carrier, flag the
carrier (_inflight_replay_merged). The carrier's metadata marks it synthetic,
so conversation_compression._ensure_compressed_has_user_turn inserted a second
copy of the same request; it now treats the flag as intent-present, and the
next cycle recognises the carrier as the task instead of losing it.
- Header idempotency: restate the text after the last header so a task that
survives several compactions carries one header and one copy.
- Exclude metadata-flagged scaffolding (_todo_snapshot_synthetic, recovery
nudges) from the in-flight scan via the shared _is_real_user_message.
Tests cover all four; each fails with its fix reverted.
The in-flight replay checked only compressed[-1] before choosing between
appending a user row and merging onto the summary carrier. A user-pinned
summary followed by an exempt tool_calls/tool tail therefore gained a second
visible user turn and broke the Mistral-style alternation pre-flight
(tests/agent/test_summary_role_template_alternation.py::test_zero_user_guard_still_forces_user).
Look through the exempt tail to the last template-visible role instead.
Compaction of a single-prompt (cron) session left no user message after
the handoff, so SUMMARY_PREFIX ordered the model to do nothing and the
scheduler recorded success. Re-append the in-flight task after the
summary.
Fixes#100818
(cherry picked from commit c0ea50ac02fd7553b1ef7deb0162483cb9a1b6ac)
Call the existing keep-newest vision retirement on the per-call
api_messages clone after sanitization so OpenAI-style tool-result
screenshots are not re-uploaded on every later turn.
- User-turn predicates reuse _is_context_summary_message (single detection path).
- _serialize_for_summary hoists the shared head/tail truncation.
- __init__ initialises per-session state via _reset_session_compaction_state.
- Timeout cooldown ladder (60/300/900s) is one module helper used by both
record_timeout_failure and the summary failure path; module-level so a real
method bound onto a stub compressor still exercises it.
Hunk-by-hunk audit of the compaction commit found 14 dropped WHY/invariant
statements (route-pin scope, persistence-marker sweep failure mode, stamp
asymmetry, reasoning-replay boundary, size-class parity with preflight,
small-context floor cap, tail-anchor ordering rules, defer-baseline backstops).
Each is restored as a compact 1-3 line comment at its anchor.
- Nine near-identical durable-row getters/setters -> _durable_read/_durable_write
(also used for parent-lineage lookups in on_session_start).
- on_session_reset/on_session_end share _reset_session_compaction_state.
- _find_tail_cut_by_tokens: the two backward token walks become one _walk_back
(randomized parity vs. the previous version: 1500 transcripts identical).
- _strip_context_summary_handoff_message: one _unwrapped() helper for all paths
(parity: 1296 content shapes identical).
- ruff SIM102/SIM108/SIM114 collapses.
