The global broker snapshotted browser.extension_control.developer_mode once
at construction, so flipping it OFF in config did not revoke raw CDP/eval
from already-attached controllers until process restart — a revocation
failure at the highest-privilege browser surface (blocker 3 of
andrexibiza's #91535 review). select() now consults the live config on
every privileged selection (explicit bool still pins for tests); off->on
also unlocks without restart. Regression test drives both directions
against an attached controller. Also drops the dead back-compat
_artifact_store property (zero readers).
The frame handler returns reply dicts (heartbeat/detach acks) that the WS
reader loop sends back; the -> None annotation was the only new ty
diagnostic vs origin/main.
Addresses both merge blockers from @andrexibiza's review of #85351:
1. HTTP-uploaded artifacts could never be consumed by broker dispatch:
artifact_scope_key hashed (principal, session, family), the HTTP routes
store with an EMPTY session (API-key auth has no server session) while
broker validation carries a session-bearing ControllerScope — every
real upload->dispatch journey died with ArtifactScopeMismatch
(reproduced before fixing). Canonical ownership is now
principal/transport-family (documented in the scope-key docstring);
ids stay unguessable server-minted 32-hex and downloads one-shot.
New composition regression: HTTP-shape upload -> registered controller
scope -> broker artifact dispatch, mutation-checked (re-adding session
to the key makes it fail).
2. The 'profile-scoped' artifact store was first-profile-wins process
state: one adapter-level singleton pinned profile B to profile A's
physical root on multiplex listeners (same frozen-handle class as
#88734). Stores are now cached by resolved profile, and the broker
selects the store from the controller scope's profile_id (default-slot
fallback preserves single-profile/test behaviour). New A/B multiplex
regression proves distinct physical roots regardless of touch order.
Also documents the advertised ticket_expires_at as best-effort wall clock
(broker enforces expiry monotonically) per review feedback.
browser_control_enabled()/browser_control_developer_mode() run on every
browser tool call and inside every check_fn evaluation (uncached for bound
sessions). Both are pure reads of nested dicts; load_config()'s defensive
deepcopy (~135us/call) is wasted there. Same pattern as the other read-only
config probes.
Surfaced during review of PR #85351.
- Rename the broker's TicketInvalid to ControllerTicketInvalid: the same
exception name already exists in hermes_cli/dashboard_auth/ws_tickets.py
and BOTH are caught in the same WS auth flow this feature touches — two
unrelated same-named exception types in one blast radius invited a wrong
except clause.
- Import the 'server-internal' sentinel identity from its canonical
definition (ws_tickets.INTERNAL_USER_ID/INTERNAL_PROVIDER) instead of
re-declaring the strings; drift would have silently broken the
internal-peer exclusion in _is_authenticated_identity.
Surfaced during review of PR #85351.
attach/disconnect/detach acquire a per-controller threading.Lock that a
worker-thread dispatch can hold for up to 10s while blocking on the event
loop to transmit its command frame (run_coroutine_threadsafe +
result(timeout=10)). Acquiring that lock synchronously from loop context
(controller WS finally, frame handler, gateway WS teardown) could park the
ENTIRE gateway event loop behind the send bridge — a deterministic
multi-second global stall whenever controller teardown raced an in-flight
command. All loop-context broker calls now go through asyncio.to_thread,
matching the existing offload pattern for _close_sessions_for_transport.
Surfaced during review of PR #85351.
The router treated any server-stamped principal as a bound lane, so with the
flag ON every authenticated dashboard/API session lost the legacy browser
backend even when no extension controller ever registered (scope_for_session
returns None -> ControllerUnavailable, no fallback) — while check_fns still
advertised the tools via the legacy OR-gate.
New broker.lane_registered() distinguishes the two cases:
- lane never registered -> generic callers keep the legacy backend
- lane registered (controller offline/ambiguous) -> fail closed, unchanged —
a control-this-tab session never silently jumps to another browser
Also makes the four non-allowlisted wrapped tools (cdp/console/vision/
get_images) behave correctly for never-registered lanes (legacy backend)
while staying fail-closed for registered lanes.
Surfaced during review of PR #85351.
The feature flag was only documented in cli-config.yaml.example; every other
browser.* key is declared in DEFAULT_CONFIG so config tooling (dashboard
editor, hermes config get) can see it. Defaults unchanged: enabled=False,
developer_mode=False. Surfaced during review of PR #85351.
Generic Hermes callers still use the existing browser backend when extension control is disabled or no server-bound controller identity exists.
Once the gateway binds a controller identity, missing scope, disconnect, or capability loss now fail closed instead of silently switching a control-this-tab request to another local or cloud browser. Covers the schema-build to dispatch disconnect race.
Treat unexpected controller transport loss as recoverable until each command's original deadline. Same-identity reconnects refresh transport and capability state, flush deferred cancels before new dispatch, and can complete already-started work.
Keep explicit detach and different controller/browser identity replacement terminal, owner-gate every inbound lifecycle frame, distinguish slow in-flight WebSocket writes from real send failures, and exclude browser-control session identity from shared shell snapshots.
Keep extension control opt-in and preserve existing browser backends unless an exact server-bound controller is available. Centralize protocol and capability admission across API and dashboard transports, make selected-controller results authoritative, bypass stale availability caches only inside bound requests, and serialize structured results for the existing tool contract.
Add a real browser_snapshot route-table/WebSocket E2E, strict admission and ownership regressions, public configuration and protocol documentation, and tests proving feature-off/no-controller compatibility.
The full-screen boot surfaces (connecting, onboarding, boot failure, root
crash fallback) paint their backdrop with --ui-chat-surface-background,
which the glass field turns transparent so <body> can be the one painter
(0483133842). That was harmless while glass shipped off; once it shipped
on by default (be3166607e) every boot overlay became a window onto the
shell behind it.
These overlays mask the whole app, so they declare data-glass-opaque —
the existing contract for surfaces that paint over siblings — which pins
the token back to opaque chrome under glass and changes nothing when
glass is off.
The 7-key internal-fields tuple was inlined twice (agent/compaction_display.py
and _project_client_message); a drift between the copies would silently leak
one internal field class through the API projection. Surfaced during review
of PR #85442.
Project client-visible session messages through the canonical compaction classifier. Hide standalone handoffs, unwrap merged carriers to their authentic prior-tail content, strip inherited internal fields, and keep model-facing recovery history unchanged.
Identify a completed merged assistant handoff from the carrier's own stop state instead of an unrelated adjacent history row. Keep carriers with pending tool calls actionable so compaction cannot abort a live tool chain.
Treat a merged assistant-role summary carrier as the driving reference handoff when it immediately follows a completed assistant stop. Its preserved prose and stale tool_calls are assistant continuity, not a fresh live user request.
Keep legitimate in-flight behavior unchanged when there is no completed stop, a real user turn follows, or a distinct later assistant tool-call row continues the loop.
Extends the #80622 active-turn guard for the merged-carrier shape reported under #42768.
The Codex OAuth backend (chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex) intermittently
injects prompt_cache_retention into its own upstream call and then rejects
it, returning HTTP 400 invalid_parameter. Hermes never sends that field on
this route (see agent/transports/codex.py::_default_prompt_cache_retention_
for_request, which only sets it for api.meta.ai and bedrock-mantle hosts).
Reproduced live: a minimal 1-message request carrying no cache parameters
at all failed 4/20 (20%) with this error, so the rejection is not
deterministic and retrying the identical request is the correct recovery.
Previously the catch-all in _classify_400 returned format_error/
retryable=False, which tripped the is_client_error abort gate in
conversation_loop and killed the turn on the first attempt - burning an
entire large-context request (~550k tokens) per failure.
Classify these as retryable server_error (should_compress=False - the
request shape was never the problem). The same guard is applied to the
sibling 5xx request-validation branch, where a fronting proxy can surface
the identical rejection.
Deliberately narrow: keyed on parameters we only send on specific routes,
and skipped when the current provider is one that legitimately sends them,
so a genuine client-side bad parameter (max_tokens on GPT-5) still fails
fast as a format_error.
prune_pre_checkpoint_items() had a hardcoded role=='user' filter that
discarded all non-user messages before a checkpoint — including Hermes'
own compression summaries (role='assistant'), causing total context amnesia
about past conversation summaries.
The fix:
- _is_summary_item delegates to the canonical
agent.context_compressor.is_compaction_summary_message provenance check
(not an ad-hoc heuristic)
- Summaries are retained whole (never byte-sliced) within a 32k token budget
- Idempotent across repeated checkpoints (dedup by identical text)
- _chat_messages_to_responses_input threads item_sources (raw chat messages)
through to the pruner, so it can read summary content directly from the
source when the Responses conversion shape is lossy (tool-result carrier
becomes function_call_output, or stale codex_message_items replay shadows
merged content)

First actioned report from the overhauled model-catalog-scout cron
(2026-08-21 validation run), every item re-verified live before edit:
Delisted (gone from live catalogs):
- opencode-zen curated: claude-opus-4-1, qwen3.7-max, qwen3.7-plus
(absent from live zen /v1/models; qwen3.7 family remains on Go)
- OPENROUTER_MODELS free section: poolside/laguna-m.1:free (rotated to
s-2.1/xs-2.1), tencent/hy3:free, inclusionai/ring-2.6-1t:free
Added (present + verified in live catalogs):
- OpenRouter free: z-ai/glm-5.2:free (256K), poolside/laguna-s-2.1:free
+ laguna-xs-2.1:free (262K), nvidia/nemotron-3.5-lightning:free (1M)
- opencode-go curated: ox-alpha-free (Go-subscription twin of the Zen
keyless Ox Alpha; keyed — Go relay 401s anonymous requests)
Metadata:
- DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS: laguna-s-2.1/xs-2.1 262144;
nemotron-3.5-lightning 1M (overrides the generic 131K nemotron entry);
glm-5.2:free 256K (the free variant is capped below the 1M paid entry)
Keyless-heal hardening (the real find):
- opencode_zen_free_runtime now gates the zen/go→keyless heal on
MEMBERSHIP in the verified opencode-free catalog, not the -free
suffix — ox-alpha-free is a KEYED Go model despite its suffix, and
suffix-based healing would have routed it to a Zen relay that
doesn't serve it (verified: zen 401s 'not supported', go 401s
'Missing API key'). New regression test pins this.
Fixture sweep: tencent/hy3:free catalog assertion updated (delisted
slug); nous-route fixtures using hy3:free as incidental model names
left alone (self-consistent mocks). model-catalog.json regenerated.
A keyless provider has no credential to lack, but every auth-gated
surface treated 'no key' as 'not authenticated', so opencode-free was
invisible in /model, provider:model listing, and the desktop model
pickers unless a user had unrelated OpenCode env vars set.
One policy, three gates, all derived from the HermesOverlay keyless
flag (#91358):
- auth.py get_api_key_provider_status: keyless providers report
configured/logged_in=True with key_source 'keyless' — flows through
get_auth_status to every status consumer (hermes status, dashboards,
list_available_providers).
- model_switch.py list_authenticated_providers: keyless overlay rows
get has_creds=True before any env/pool/auth-store checks — this is
the source for /model, the TUI picker, and the desktop
/api/model/options payload.
- inventory.py explicit-only filter (desktop chat pickers): keyless
providers are kept — there is nothing to 'explicitly configure', and
hiding a zero-setup provider defeats its purpose.
E2E (temp HERMES_HOME, all keys stripped): get_auth_status logged_in,
list_available_providers authenticated, picker row with 6 models,
desktop payload default AND explicit_only both include the provider,
and the full switch pipeline (parse free:x-preview-f-free →
switch_model) resolves to the keyless runtime. 4 new tests.
updateGroupChat's inline durable-map builder (the local-mutation persist
path) skips tombstoned rooms and carries roomId — but durableGroupChatRooms,
the SEPARATE builder persistGroupChatRooms uses for the remote-merge path
(every pullGroupChatServerState / gateway-swap sync), has neither.
Two independent gaps in the same function:
1. Tombstone resurrection. Disband sets a runtime-only tombstone
({tombstone: true, log: [], ...}) while a drive may still be mid-turn,
with no roomId. mergeRemoteGroupChatSnapshotIntoRooms spreads
...existing before its explicit field overrides (none of which touch
tombstone), so if a remote gateway hasn't received the delete yet
(plausible now that sync fans out to every reachable default-profile
gateway with independent per-connection backoff) and still has a live
copy of the room, the tombstone flag survives into the merged room.
That merged map is handed straight to persistGroupChatRooms, which
wrote it to storage because durableGroupChatRooms had no tombstone
check. On the next cold hydrate the persisted tombstone reads back as
an empty, non-tombstoned room, resurrecting the original bug
(recreating a room under the same name silently becomes "<name> 2")
through a path the earlier tombstone fix didn't cover.
2. roomId loss. mergeRemoteGroupChatSnapshotIntoRooms correctly carries
roomId into the merged in-memory room, but durableGroupChatRooms never
included it in the persisted snapshot. Every room merged in via the
remote-sync path therefore loses its immutable room identity on the
next cold hydrate (comes back with roomId: null) and falls back to
legacy name-keyed identity — breaking id-based rename/merge resolution
and member-session titling ("Group: <roomId>").
Fix: durableGroupChatRooms now mirrors updateGroupChat's inline map
exactly — skip tombstones, carry roomId.
Tests: durableGroupChatRooms unit tests for both gaps, plus an
end-to-end reachability test (tombstone -> mergeRemoteGroupChatSnapshot-
IntoRooms -> persistGroupChatRooms -> storage) proving the merge really
does forward the tombstone and the fix really does keep it out of
storage. Mutation-verified against pre-fix code (all 3 new tests fail).
Full hermes-bots plugin test suite (60+ files) green.
Review-round residuals: the spinner's user-select guard now beats
[data-selectable-text] regardless of stylesheet order; the will-change
layer hint clears under the global renderer pause and reduced motion so
parked spinners hold no compositor layer; the e2e travel assertion reads
the engine's keyframes (a computed transform always serializes to a
matrix, so the old '%' check could never fail); inline import() type
hoisted for the lint gate.

Replaces the deleted stylesheet-text assertions with tests that run the
thing they claim to cover.
e2e/glyph-spinner.spec.ts drives a real browser, where the CSS actually
executes: the strip's animation resolves to steps(N) for N frames, runs
infinitely, and travels a resolved length rather than a percentage (a
percentage translate is layout-dependent and Chromium refuses to
composite it). Both pause gates are covered — the per-spinner
`data-paused` attribute and the global renderer-pause attribute that
window blur / minimize / document-hidden arm — along with the layer
promotion being scoped to running spinners. A sampling test confirms the
transform visits a bounded number of distinct values across one cycle
(steps, not a linear sweep) and that nothing mutates the DOM while it
animates, which is the property the whole change exists to deliver.
status-invalidation-scope.test.tsx pins the scoping itself as a render
count. `useTapbackDoubleClick` is called by AssistantMessageBody and by
nothing else in the tree, which makes it an exact render counter for the
message root without exporting internals. A settle and a delta flush must
both leave that count untouched while the leaves update. Verified by
mutation: reinstating a root-level status subscription fails the settle
test (2 renders where 1 is required).
It also pins node identity across the settle transition, so the
inter-agent collapse cannot go back to swapping element types at the
message-root position and remounting the row under the scroll anchor.

Review follow-ups on the compositor spinner and the invalidation scoping.
Spinner CSS:
- Clip each frame to its own box. Braille renders from a system fallback
face (JetBrains Mono has no U+2800 block), whose metrics are not
guaranteed to fit the 1em frame, so neighbouring ink could bleed into
the viewport.
- Name descendants explicitly in the selection guard. The competing
`[data-selectable-text='true'] *` rule has the same (0,1,0)
specificity, so relying on inheritance made the winner depend on
stylesheet order.
- Scope the compositor promotion to spinners that are actually running.
A permanently promoted layer per parked spinner is pure memory at
fan-out breadth, where many sit mounted and paused at once.
- Give every var() the braille default as its fallback, so a missing
custom property degrades to a working spinner rather than an invalid
declaration.
Spinner component: replace the bare `as CSSProperties` cast on the inline
style with an exported GlyphSpinnerVars contract, so a typo in a custom
property name is a compile error rather than a silently dead declaration.
Assistant message:
- Render the inter-agent collapse as a CHILD of the normal body instead
of a competing root. The settled case previously returned a different
element type than the running case, so settling unmounted the whole row
and mounted a fresh one — discarding the DOM the scroll anchor held.
One component, one root, children vary; the truth table is unchanged,
including the collapsed row carrying no tapback listener.
- Collapse AssistantStatusSlot's separate subscriptions into one selector
returning a stable string. The inputs always move together on a status
flip, so reading them separately just multiplied the wake-ups.
- Give StreamingMarker a stable `data-slot` and assert on that rather
than on `span.hidden`.
Repro script: count settled rows by subtracting streaming markers from
message roots instead of `:not(:has(...))`. The selector walked every
row's subtree on each evaluation, inside the very latency window the
probe measures.
Comments: drop the stale translateY(-100%) description, name both pause
triggers, replace hard-coded line-number citations with selector/symbol
ones, note that only the primary window arms the renderer-pause
attribute, and move the forensic trace numbers out of source comments
into the PR.
Delete the three tests that asserted on stylesheet TEXT. AGENTS.md bans
reading source in tests outright, and they demonstrated exactly why: a
var()-fallback edit that changed no rendered pixel broke one of them.
Replacements that exercise the CSS in a real browser follow.

Three items from the adversarial review of the compositor-only spinner.
1. COMPOSITOR PROMOTION. The keyframes travelled translateY(-100%), which
resolves against the strip's own box and so makes the animation
layout-dependent: instrumentation recorded a non-zero compositeFailed on
184/184 records (131072 / 131104) while a sibling transform animation using an
absolute length composited clean. The travel is now
calc(frames * -1 * frame-height), an absolute length for the same distance, and
the strip gets will-change: transform. steps(var(--glyph-spinner-frames)) and
the 1em frame metric are unchanged.
The frame height is now a custom property on .glyph-spinner, used by the clip
viewport, each frame box and the keyframe travel, so those three cannot drift.
On the em-resolution question: the keyframes apply to .glyph-spinner__strip and
nothing below .glyph-spinner declares a font-size, so the strip's em and the
frame's em are the same length -- the property makes that a single declaration
rather than a coincidence to re-verify.
2. SELECTION. .glyph-spinner takes user-select: none (plus -webkit-). These sit
inside [data-selectable-text] subtrees, where the strip contributed all N
glyphs to a transcript copy against the old implementation's one. None is right
for a decorative aria-hidden element.
3. SAME-CLASS SWEEP. chat-swap-overlay.tsx ran its own 80ms setInterval +
setState braille ticker -- the exact mechanism this fix removes. Its setFrame
drove only the glyph (setLabel is independent), and its frame set and cadence
are exactly the `braille` variant, so it now renders GlyphSpinner.
`justify-start` (tailwind-merge lets the caller win) keeps the glyph
left-aligned in its w-3 box as the bare span was. GlyphSpinner gains a `paused`
prop for it: the overlay stays mounted through its fade-out, and the old
cleared-interval behaviour was to stop animating once the swap was done.
Tests: guards for the two invisible-in-jsdom regressions -- keyframes must not
return to a percentage translate, and the selection guard must stay -- plus the
paused prop, and a new chat-swap-overlay.test.tsx pinning that no timer comes
back, the label still survives the fade-out, and the glyph freezes with it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Scheduler attribution on the incident trace (FINDINGS.md round-5-Opus receipt)
puts 133 of 138 wide document-scale recalcs on GlyphSpinner's ticker, and 0 of
254 cheap ones. Replacing glyph.textContent every interval is a structural
text-node mutation, so each tick scheduled a style recalculation that resolved
against the whole document -- with N spinners mounted in a streaming
transcript, that is the incident.
Every frame is now in the DOM from mount as a vertical strip, scrolled by a
transform translateY keyframes animation. Transform animations run on the
compositor: no JS timer, no text mutation, no per-frame style recalc, layout or
schedule.
The strip is N frames tall and each frame is exactly 1em, so translating -100%
travels N frames; steps(N) (jump-end) samples that at 0, 1/N .. (N-1)/N, i.e.
it parks on frame 0..N-1 for one interval each and wraps -- the same sequence
and cadence the setInterval produced. Frame count and duration (N x interval)
arrive as inline custom properties, so all 18 spinner names / 16 distinct
frame-interval shapes share one keyframes rule with no generated or colliding
per-variant CSS.
Sizing, colour and alignment are unchanged: the outer cell keeps its exact
classes, and the 1em clipping viewport is centred by the same items-center that
used to centre the single glyph -- so consumer classNames that set a box
(size-3, size-3.5) or a font-size still land the way they did.
Gating semantics preserved, per the original "N mounted tabs each ticking burns
CPU for pixels nobody can see":
- kept-alive hidden tab -> data-paused -> animation-play-state: paused. Kept
explicit rather than relying on the pane's content-visibility:hidden, since
that containment has a runtime kill switch and older pane layers only set
visibility:hidden, which does not stop an animation.
- window blur / minimize / document hidden -> the strip joins the existing
:root[data-renderer-animations-paused] allowlist in styles.css, driven by
main.tsx's installRendererAnimationPauseState(). That is the mechanism every
other continuous decorative animation here already uses, so the per-spinner
createRendererLoopPauseController goes away.
- reduced motion is now honoured, which the ticker never did: the blanket
@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) rule freezes the animation. This
also makes E2E screenshots deterministic, which that rule exists for.
The frames are marked aria-hidden. role="status" is a live region and the old
implementation rewrote its text ~12x/second, which announced a new glyph on
every tick.
Tests rewritten, deliberately: all five previous cases asserted the ticker
itself (vi.getTimerCount(), per-tick textContent), which no longer exists. The
replacements pin what jsdom can see -- frame order, the custom properties
feeding steps()/duration per variant, zero timers ever created, the hidden-tab
gate, aria-hidden, and that the strip is still named in the global pause rule.
The blur/minimize/document-hidden contracts now belong to that global mechanism
and are covered by lib/renderer-loop-pause.test.ts.

The last status-dependent read at the message root, and the most expensive
one: the completedText selector flipped between '' while running and a full
messageContentText(content) join once settled, so every running <-> settled
transition re-ran the join for the whole message AND re-rendered the root. At
stream breadth N that is N joins plus N root re-renders per flip.
completedText and the previewTargets memo it feeds now live in a new
AssistantPreviewEmbeds leaf, mounted at the same position inside
[data-slot='aui_assistant-message-content']. Verified before moving that
previewTargets fed nothing else at the root -- its only consumer was its own
render block. The leaf renders the same wrapper div with the same classes, or
null when there are no targets, so the DOM is byte-identical; a component
boundary adds no node, so unlike StreamingMarker this needed no placement care
around the :first-child/:last-child rules.
The '' branch is preserved deliberately: it is the streaming-side optimization
that keeps the selector referentially stable so per-token flushes skip the
regex scan.
AssistantMessageBody now holds no status-dependent subscription at all -- what
remains is messageId, hasVisibleText, isInterim and turnDurationS, none of
which move on a pending flip.
Adds preview-embeds.test.tsx. The embed had no coverage, and the two cases are
written as a matched pair on the same selector -- present once settled, absent
while running -- so neither can pass vacuously.
Behavior-identical; invalidation scope only.

Removes the two residual invalidators left by the previous commit.
data-streaming: gone from the message root. The flag is not dead -- it is the
settled-row signal for scripts/run-short-session-hang-repro.mjs -- so it moved
to a permanently-mounted, display:none leaf that is a ROOT-LEVEL sibling, and
the repro now matches on the descendant. Placement is load-bearing three ways:
a node inside [data-slot='aui_assistant-message-content'] would steal
:last-child from the stall indicator and change inter-bubble margins mid-stream
(styles.css:1995-2003); keeping it mounted and toggling only the attribute
keeps the per-flip write on a childless node instead of making it a DOM
structure change; display:none costs no layout or paint while querySelectorAll
and :has() still match it.
Renamed to data-message-streaming rather than reusing data-streaming: shiki
puts that exact attribute on deferred code cards, which are descendants of the
message root, so a descendant-matching selector sharing the name would report
any message holding a deferred code card as still streaming.
root isRunning: gone from the standard path. AssistantMessage now dispatches on
interAgentSender, so the collapse gate's live status subscription lives in
InterAgentAssistantMessage and only the rare inter-agent case pays it. The
enter animation captures its enabled flag once off the runtime, non-reactively,
because use-enter-animation.ts parks the value in a ref behind a useCallback([])
identity and consults it only when the callback ref fires at mount -- a live
subscription fed a value the hook already ignores.
Adds inter-agent-collapse.test.tsx: the collapse gate and the marker contract
both had zero coverage, and nothing in the app reads the marker, so a delete
would otherwise look free and silently regress the repro's response gate.
Behavior-identical; invalidation scope only.

Prong A of the wide-recalc fix (FINDINGS.md round-4 protocol): read status in
leaf components inside message content, hoist MessagePrimitive.Parts so status
flips cannot re-render the parts subtree. Behavior-identical; invalidation
scope only.
The third primary edit -- dropping the data-streaming root attribute -- is NOT
in this commit. The design doc calls it dead based on a CSS grep, and that grep
is correct (every [data-streaming='true'] rule targets [data-slot='code-card']).
But it has a live non-CSS consumer: scripts/run-short-session-hang-repro.mjs
:928 and :1023 count settled assistant rows via
[data-slot="aui_assistant-message-root"]:not([data-streaming="true"]) and gate
the assistant-response wait on that count growing. Deleting the attribute makes
that selector match every row, so the gate would pass at stream start instead of
completion. Held pending a decision rather than silently weakening the repro.

Phase 2 core slice of #91277: the updater now knows WHAT it is operating
on before it mutates anything.
- hermes_cli/update_inventory.py (new): side-effect-free runtime
inventory — install kind via detect_install_method (git / docker / nix
/ apt, updatable-in-place or not, with the correct external update
command for image/package-managed installs), all profiles, every live
gateway with its supervisor (systemd / launchd / manual via the
fleet-wide _get_service_pids), running code_sha/code_version from the
#91283 gateway_state.json stamps, and the restart mechanism each
runtime will get.
- hermes update --plan: prints the plan and exits; runs BEFORE the
docker/nix refusal gates so image-managed installs get a useful
'not updatable in place + right command' report instead of a bare
refusal. Read-only, safe on a live fleet.
- Every real update run now records the pre-update plan in its receipt
('plan' key) and prints a one-line fleet summary, so post-mortems can
compare what the update SAW against what it did.
- Docs: updating.md (--plan section + receipts/fleet-check section),
cli-commands.md (flag row + receipts behavior bullet).
- 11 tests: two-profile fleet classification, docker not-in-place,
dead-PID exclusion, PID-file fallback dedupe, all-probes-fail
never-raises, JSON round-trip for the receipt, print output shapes,
receipt integration.
Test harnesses that vi.mock('@/hermes') without setApiRequestProfile make
the session-states transitive graph unloadable; the deferred reconcile
import then rejected unhandled and failed unrelated suites in shard 2.
Catch and skip — the production graph always loads.
Static gateway.ts -> session-states.ts import closed a module cycle that
left $activeGatewayProfile undefined at session-states init (TypeError:
Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'get')) — the CI red across
all three UI shards. Dynamic import defers the edge past module init;
reconcile semantics unchanged. Proven by re-adding the static edge:
hud/pet suites reproduce the exact CI failure.
A respawned backend re-mints runtime ids, so a pre-reconnect busy state
never receives its terminal busy:false publish and its session stayed in
$workingSessionIds forever - the sidebar running arc and agents-panel
'running' chrome lied for hours after the turn ended (the stale-flag
half of #53902/#73082; the CSS cost half landed in #91383).
reconcileBusyStatesOnReconnect() downgrades busy/awaitingResponse states
through publishSessionState (watchdogs disarm, stall hints drop, settle/
unread bookkeeping stays consistent), scoped by event-source: the primary
reconnect touches only scope-less runtimes, a secondary (registry)
reconnect touches only its own connection's. needsInput survives - a
blocking prompt is the user's to answer. A genuinely live turn re-asserts
busy on its next post-reconnect event, so the worst case is one arc blink.
Regression tests proven by sabotage run (neutered reconcile -> 5/6 fail).
Live verification (2026-08-21): big-pickle and mimo-v2.5-free return 429
FreeUsageLimitError for ANY User-Agent except the opencode CLI's own
'opencode/latest' — same IP, no cooldown effect, while the other six free
models serve our honest HermesAgent UA freely. Hermes sends deliberate
attribution headers and does not impersonate other clients, so these two
models are broken for our users by policy on OpenCode's side; delist them
rather than ship dead picker entries.
- opencode-free catalog: 8 -> 6 models (both curated lists)
- plugin default_aux_model: big-pickle -> laguna-s-2.1-free (fastest
non-gated free model)
- keyless predicate keeps big-pickle (it IS free-tier; correct routing if
a user enters it manually — they get the relay's own 429, not our 401)
E2E: picker shows 6, laguna aux default completes a keyless agent turn.
tests/gateway/conftest.py already installs a comprehensive telegram mock
at collection time (line 330), before any test module's imports run.
The per-file copies were fully redundant — each was a simpler subset
(plain strings, setdefault, fewer error classes) of the conftest version
(which uses _fake_str_enum for PTB-faithful StrEnum semantics, sys.modules
overwrite to win over partial/broken imports, and a full error hierarchy
including BadRequest, Forbidden, RetryAfter, Conflict, InvalidToken).
Removed: function def + module-level call + now-unused imports (sys,
MagicMock where no longer referenced) + dangling comment blocks that
referenced the deleted mock, in 27 test files.
Left untouched: tests/gateway/conftest.py (canonical source) and
tests/e2e/conftest.py (separate conftest tree that may run in isolation).
Found by /simplify-code review of PR #90560.
The macOS branch of the update's fleet-restart step only restarted the
invoking profile's LaunchAgent. Sibling ai.hermes.gateway-<profile>
services kept pre-update modules cached in sys.modules and died on their
next agent turn (ImportError on new lazy imports, or TypeError/
AttributeError with garbled tracebacks on wider version gaps). The
systemd branch already iterates every hermes-gateway* unit; this brings
launchd to parity:
- _restart_macos_launchd_gateways(): the invoking profile keeps the
existing launchd_restart() path; every other gateway of this install
is drained via SIGUSR1 (same as systemd siblings), then hard-
kickstarted unless KeepAlive already respawned it, then verified on a
fresh PID. TimeoutExpired is isolated per label (#68523 parity) and
counts toward failed_or_stale_units — including timeouts during
liveness discovery, which must not read as "unloaded".
- Install-scoped fleet enumeration: launchd_gateway_labels_for_install()
derives labels from THIS install's profiles (get_default_hermes_root),
not by globbing the shared per-user ~/Library/LaunchAgents — a
sandboxed HERMES_HOME (tests, capture sandboxes, side-by-side
installs) must never enumerate, let alone restart, another install's
fleet. This also keeps the hermetic test suite blind to a dev
machine's real gateways.
- Domain-explicit sibling handling via _locate_launchd_gateway_service():
liveness, kickstart, and fresh-PID verification all use the domain the
service was actually located in (gui/<uid> vs user/<uid> probed per
label via `launchctl print`). This addresses the #41403 review defect:
the process-wide _launchd_domain() cache resolves the current profile's
domain and must never be reused for a sibling. _launchd_domain() itself
becomes a thin caching wrapper; behavior unchanged.
- _get_service_pids(all_profiles=...): the update path's manual-process
sweep excludes every gateway service PID (mirror of the systemd
hermes-gateway* pattern) so it cannot mistake a freshly respawned
sibling service for a stale manual gateway. Default-scope callers
(gateway status, cron checks, stop_profile_gateway's orphan reaper —
which kills what it is fed) keep the current-profile-only contract.
- _warn_incomplete_gateway_fleet_restart() prints launchctl recovery
hints for launchd labels alongside the systemctl ones.
Supersedes and completes #41403, addressing its review feedback
(per-label domain resolution + mocked regression tests).

Cron jobs were constructed with skip_memory=True and a hard 'memory'
toolset denial, so MEMORY.md/USER.md never loaded and the memory tool was
stripped even from per-job enabled_toolsets. That was inconsistent with
kanban/delegate/gateway agents (which all get memory) and forced users
into hacky bypasses.
- cron/scheduler.py: skip_memory=False on the cron AIAgent; drop 'memory'
from _resolve_cron_disabled_toolsets; remove _strip_cron_memory_toolset
and its call sites
- agent/agent_init.py: update stale comment referencing the cron denylist
- tests: flip pinning tests to the new contract (memory enabled, per-job
memory toolset kept, user-level denylist still wins)
- docs: cron-internals + automate-with-cron no longer claim cron has no
persistent memory
Review on #91283: begin_update_receipt() fires early in _cmd_update_impl,
but finalization only existed on the success/ZIP/CalledProcessError
paths. Early sys.exit paths (Windows concurrent-instance preflight,
venv-holder refusal, head-pinned no-op, fetch failure) terminated with
the receipt started but never written — losing exactly the refused/
failed runs the receipt matters most for.
- update_receipt.py: finalize_pending_update_receipt(exit_code,
stop_reason) — boundary safety net; maps exit 2 → 'refused', other
non-zero → 'failed'; records exit_code + stop_reason. Exactly-once by
construction (singleton popped in finalize_update_receipt), so runs
the inner paths already finalized are untouched.
- main.py cmd_update: SystemExit/BaseException/else arms around
_cmd_update_impl persist any still-open receipt with the real exit
code, then re-raise unchanged. Future early exits are covered without
per-site finalize patches.
- 5 regression tests incl. end-to-end through the real cmd_update
wrapper (exit 2 preserved, outcome 'refused', stop reason recorded,
singleton cleared, exactly one receipt file).
Replaces direct review_agent.interrupt() call with the existing
agent.interrupt_compat.request_hard_interrupt() helper, which handles
both the new hard_interrupt ABI and the legacy interrupt fallback.
