`_scrub_config_yaml_mirrors` reconciles the config.yaml copies of a credential
when it is rotated or removed through the dashboard. It walks `model`,
`auxiliary.<task>`, and `custom_providers.<name>` — but not the keyed
`providers` schema.
`providers` is not a niche section: `get_compatible_custom_providers` documents
it as "the newer keyed schema" (v12+), and it is exactly where the dashboard /
desktop write a custom endpoint's inline key —
`_write_custom_endpoint` sets `providers.<id>.api_key`. That value is a real
credential: the runtime resolver reads it (`runtime_provider` /
`hermes_cli.main` / `model_switch` all read `entry.get("api_key")` off a
`providers` entry), and an inline key outranks the env var.
So the section the scrub skips is the one the dashboard writes to, and both
callers break on it:
- save_provider_env_credential (rotation, #62269): a stale
`providers.<id>.api_key` is left at the OLD value and, being
higher-precedence than the freshly-rotated env var, shadows the rotation —
the "persistent 401 with a key the UI no longer shows" that #62269 fixed,
reintroduced for the newer schema.
- remove_provider_env_credential: its contract is to "remove a credential from
EVERY store it lives in", yet the `providers` copy survives, leaving the
secret in config.yaml after the user asked to delete it.
Walk `providers.<id>` too. The scrub stays value-matched, so an unrelated
endpoint's key is untouched. Only `api_key` is scrubbed here: in the keyed
`providers` schema `api` is the base_url alias, not a credential (unlike
model/auxiliary/custom_providers), so `_fix` takes an explicit field list and
this section passes `("api_key",)` — a provider's endpoint URL is never
rewritten even if it happened to equal the credential string.
tests/hermes_cli/test_credential_lifecycle.py: drive the real PUT/DELETE
/api/env endpoints against a `providers.<id>.api_key` mirror — rotation moves
it to the new key, delete clears it, and a `providers.<id>.api` base_url alias
is preserved. The two scrub tests fail on main (stale key survives); the
base_url guard passes on main as a control. 15 pass here; 345 pass across the
credential-lifecycle + web-server suites (the one failing honcho-merge test
fails identically on clean main).
- Tavily plugin deleted (plugins/web/tavily), keyless endpoints and
ring entry removed from keyless_mcp, legacy backend set / credential
ladder / preference walks / rescue key map scrubbed.
- TAVILY_API_KEY deregistered across config, setup, status, dump, and
nous_subscription surfaces. The tvly- redaction pattern stays --
legacy keys in user envs still deserve masking.
- Sibling test pins migrated (keenable/exa stand in where tavily was
the fixture vendor); tavily test suite deleted.
- Docs updated: web-search, configuration, integrations,
environment-variables, tools-reference, web-dashboard, provider
plugin dev guide.
Live-verified from an isolated HERMES_HOME with all web creds blanked:
zero-config resolution lands in the 4-vendor ring, live keyless ring
search succeeds, no tavily anywhere in resolution order.
The PKCE payload is a flat 'provider=...;state=...;verifier=...;next=...'
string. A raw ';' is a cookie-attribute terminator, so Python's
http.cookies emits the value in RFC 6265 quoted form with each ';'
escaped as the backslash-octal '\073'. Mainstream browsers echo that
form back verbatim and Python parsers decode it — the browser round
trip is fine. But '"' and '\' are outside the plain cookie-octet set,
and non-Python hops that re-serialize the Cookie header reject the
value and drop the cookie entirely: Go's net/http (Traefik middleware,
Authentik outposts, other gateways) refuses any cookie value
containing a backslash. The OIDC callback then 400s with "Missing
PKCE state cookie" even though the browser sent the cookie.
Field reproduction: support thread "Still unable to use Authentik for
signin with traefik" — devtools showed the browser sending the intact
quoted \073 cookie on /auth/callback while Hermes logged
missing_pkce_cookie behind a Traefik+Authentik chain.
Fix: URL-encode the whole payload in set_pkce_cookie (quote(payload,
safe='') — ';' becomes '%3B') so the wire value contains only
cookie-octets and no parser in the chain has anything to reject, and
decode through a single shared inverse, cookies.parse_pkce_payload(),
in BOTH readers: the OAuth /auth/callback and the native
password-login path (routes.login_submit), whose broker/provider
binding check would otherwise parse zero segments from the
newly-encoded value and silently disable itself.
Regression coverage: the wire-shape test pins the full cookie-octet
set (the '"'/'\' assertions are the ones a Go-parser hop fails
pre-fix), the round-trip tests drive the real /auth/login →
/auth/callback path, and the next= test pins the exact post-login
redirect byte shape. Native-flow broker assertions updated to decode
through parse_pkce_payload instead of substring-matching the raw wire
value.
Salvaged from #84065 (rebased onto current main, which gained the
SameSite=None PKCE attrs and the RFC 8252 native password flow since
the PR branched): kept main's _pkce_attrs cookie shape, extended the
fix to the login_submit reader the original PR predated, and reframed
the rationale — browsers do NOT truncate at the first ';' (there is
no literal ';' on the wire in the quoted form); the failing hop is a
strict middlebox cookie parser.
Closes#83832

Forward normalized custom-provider capabilities on the default gateway path so native compaction does not depend on session rehydration. Document the content trust boundary and cover both lookup and gateway resolution.
Use a distinct runtime_capabilities field on agents, preserve compatibility with earlier snapshots, and resolve the canonical direct OpenAI endpoint when a cross-provider switch omits base_url. Keep ambiguous proxy routes fail-closed.
Stage destination native-compaction capabilities until the complete runtime and context setup succeeds, and restore them with primary and fallback runtimes. Keep native compaction default-deny across live switches and session reconstruction.\n\nVerification: uv run --with pytest --with pyyaml python -m pytest tests/run_agent/test_switch_model_context.py tests/run_agent/test_native_compaction.py tests/run_agent/test_native_compaction_switch_capabilities.py tests/run_agent/test_switch_model_rollback.py tests/run_agent/test_fallback_reasoning_override.py tests/run_agent/test_primary_runtime_restore.py tests/run_agent/test_provider_fallback.py -q -o 'addopts='; uv run --with ruff ruff check <touched files>; git diff --check
The snapshot dirs were 0700 but every file inside landed umask-wide:
shutil.copy2 preserves Chrome's own 0644 profile-file modes and
sqlite3.connect creates the online-backup destinations as plain umask
files — so the copied Cookies / Login Data / Web Data (the user's live
session credentials) sat 0644. The 0700 parents contain it by default,
but the documented HERMES_HOME_MODE traversal hatch makes group/world-
readable children a real exposure.
snapshot_real_profile now reconciles every file (0600) and nested dir
(0700) inside the snapshot through the house helpers (_secure_file /
_secure_dir — managed-mode and container carve-outs included) at the
end of every pass, so snapshots written by older builds heal on their
next launch. Best-effort, never blocks a launch.
Tests: owner-only walk under umask 022 (fails on the pre-fix code —
sabotage-verified) + heal-on-refresh for a pre-existing 0644 Cookies.
The issue's other two findings are already fixed on main: mock-keychain
flags eliminated by the direct native-binary launch (#98249, salvage of
#96763); the 'Device not configured' TTY failure is superseded by the
same launch-path rework.
hermes skills install impeccable (and the docs-page install button) now
installs the impeccable frontend-design skill as an official optional-skills
entry. The local optional-skills/creative/impeccable/ dir is a catalog STUB:
its frontmatter declares metadata.hermes.upstream (repo + path), and
OptionalSkillSource.fetch() pulls the real 163-file bundle live from
pbakaus/impeccable:.hermes/skills/impeccable — the Hermes-native bundle
upstream maintains and verifies. Nothing vendored, never stale.
New mechanism (generic, not impeccable-specific):
- OptionalSkillSource._upstream_pointer(): parses/validates the upstream
pointer (owner/name repo, clean relative path, traversal rejected).
- _fetch_from_upstream(): delegates to GitHubSource.fetch(), relabels the
bundle official/<rel> at trust 'trusted' (curated endorsement, but
third-party content — dangerous scan verdicts still block).
- The live-repo fallback path redirects stubs the same way, so stale local
checkouts behave identically.
Three real gaps this surfaced, all fixed:
- GitHubSource.fetch() only downloaded SKILL.md plus paths linked from a
canonical support dir (references/, scripts/, ...). Impeccable keeps its
playbooks under reference/ (singular) and links scripts only from
reference files, so fetch shipped 1 of 163 files. fetch() now downloads
the full skill directory via the git tree (same approach as the
optional-skills live fetch), still rejecting symlinks/hidden/unsafe paths
and still failing on a missing SKILL.md-linked references/ path.
- The five env_exfil_* scanner patterns flagged loopback requests as
critical exfiltration: impeccable's live mode polls
http://localhost:PORT/status?token=TOKEN and scored two CRITICALs.
Scheme-anchored loopback exemption added; evil.com/?u=localhost decoys
still fire (10-case regex matrix in tests).
- unified_search() truncated to limit before ranking, so official catalog
entries got crowded out by skills.sh mirrors and bare-name installs
stalled on an ambiguity table. Results now stable-sort by trust rank
before the cut, and _resolve_short_name prefers a sole official exact
match over community mirrors.
Also fixes pre-existing test pollution: TestInstallPathSafety's fixture
monkeypatched the PEP 562 dynamic SKILLS_DIR, permanently shadowing dynamic
resolution and breaking the served_repo E2E tests in any combined run
(reproducible on main).
Validation: live E2E do_install("impeccable") against real GitHub —
resolves to official/creative/impeccable, verdict SAFE, 163 files on disk,
skill loads, /impeccable slash command registers. 128/128 targeted tests;
full-dir fetch test sabotage-verified. Docs: optional-skills catalog row,
generated skill page, sidebar.
The bundled plan skill's auto-generated slash command fell off the capped
Telegram/Discord command menus for most installs (skills are the only tier
trimmed at the platform caps, alphabetically — 'plan' sat past the cutoff at
index 57 of 82 bundled skills). Converting it to a first-class CommandDef
gives it a guaranteed core-tier menu slot on every platform.
- agent/plan_prompt.py: build_plan_prompt() — plan-mode rules + authoring
craft distilled from the retired skill; prompt-injection pattern like
/learn and /init (no engine, no model-tool footprint, cache-safe).
- CLI: _handle_plan_command mixin handler (pending-input injection).
- Gateway: /plan branch rewrites event.text and falls through (role
alternation preserved).
- TUI: command.dispatch branch ('plan' was already in
_PENDING_INPUT_COMMANDS).
- Removed skills/software-development/plan/ + docs pages (EN + zh-Hans),
catalog rows, sidebar entry, related_skills references.
- PROTECTED_BUILTIN_SKILLS is now empty (mechanism kept); dependent
curator/usage tests moved to monkeypatched sentinels.
Salvages #67292 by @webtecnica (credit: first /plan command submission,
issue #67264); reworked from inline planning prompt to the prompt-injection
pattern with workspace-saved plans. Closes#67264, closes#36821 (empty
/plan infers task from conversation context).
Completes the #90953 salvage on post-#98237 main:
- New _merge_request_overrides helper defines the precedence contract:
explicit delegation.request_overrides merges OVER runtime/parent-derived
overrides — explicit top-level keys win; extra_body is deep-merged one
level so runtime extra_body keys survive unless redefined. Inputs are
copy.deepcopy'd so transport-side mutation can't leak into config or the
provider runtime cache.
- Direct base_url branch: explicit key now merges over the #98237
provider-alongside-base_url runtime overrides instead of being a separate
return shape; max_output_tokens preserved.
- Named-provider branch and parent-inherit branch now honor the key too, so
delegation.request_overrides never silently no-ops.
- _build_child_agent honors override_request_overrides whenever set
(previously only when override_provider was set), enabling the inherit
branch's merged value to reach the child.
- DEFAULT_CONFIG: delegation.request_overrides entry with comment.
- Tests: expanded tests/tools/test_delegate_request_overrides.py — deep-copy
proofs, explicit-over-runtime precedence on the provider-alongside-base_url
path, named-provider branch, inherit branch, and merge-helper unit tests.
- Docs: configuration.md delegation section + features/delegation.md document
the key, precedence, and example YAML (OpenRouter extra_body.provider.sort).
Follow-up to the previous commit (which fixed the default/fallback
provider path). A mid-session `/model` switch stores a per-session
override bundle in `_session_model_overrides` that omitted
`request_overrides`, and the two consumers
(`_resolve_session_agent_runtime` fast path and
`_apply_session_model_override`) only copied
provider/api_key/base_url/api_mode. So switching *to* a custom provider
via `/model` did not apply its `extra_body`.
- `ModelSwitchResult` gains a `request_overrides` field, derived for the
switched provider via `_get_named_custom_provider` /
`_custom_provider_request_overrides` (the same overrides
`resolve_runtime_provider` surfaces for the default path).
- Both `/model` override-storage sites in slash_commands.py persist it.
- Both consumers apply it; `_apply_session_model_override` also clears a
stale value when switching to a provider that has none.
Extends tests/gateway/test_turn_request_overrides.py (3 new cases).
Carry provider-derived request_overrides through runtime resolution,
fallback projection, session /model state, restart rehydration, and
turn-route merge so named custom providers keep extra_body and related
overrides.
- _terminate_real_profile_chrome(): directly-launched real browsers are ours
to reap (agent-browser only attaches); wired into the atexit emergency
cleanup and both launch-failure paths so orphaned Chrome processes can't
accumulate.
- Display-less Linux gate: append --headless=new (shares the profile's normal
cookie store, unlike legacy headless) so the direct-launch path doesn't
regress servers without DISPLAY/WAYLAND_DISPLAY.
- Register browser.real_profile_pin in config_defaults.py and document the
new launch model + pin in website/docs/user-guide/features/browser.md.
- Drop unused tempfile import from the cherry-picked commit.
The Default dir in the snapshot holds the SOURCE profile cookies, but
info_cache['Default'] kept the source user-data-dir own Default entry
(a different person). Chrome saw cookies that belong to profile B while
its profile metadata said profile A, demanded a 'Continue as <name>'
profile-sign-in reconciliation on every launch, and treated the profile
as mid-sign-in. Use the source profile info_cache entry (name + Google
account) for the copy Default.
Four fixes for real-profile browsing (browser.use_real_profile), found and
verified end-to-end on macOS with a live Chrome:
1. _copy_auth_file: sqlite3.connect('file:...?mode=ro') on a live Chrome
auth DB can block indefinitely inside lock negotiation - the busy
timeout never fires, so the 'fail fast' path hangs the launch forever.
Try immutable=1 first (reads instantly, correct for a committed
snapshot of a file another process owns); mode=ro stays as fallback.
2. Launch shape: agent-browser's own launch injects --use-mock-keychain /
--password-store=basic / --headless=new. On macOS the mock keychain
makes Chrome treat every keychain-encrypted cookie as undecryptable
and drop it - the copied profile launches signed out (~3 anonymous
cookies instead of the full jar). Launch the user's real browser
binary directly on the copy (no mock-keychain switches), wait for
DevToolsActivePort, then attach agent-browser via --cdp.
3. Snapshot copy: Local State was copied verbatim, still naming the
SOURCE profile (last_used='Profile 2', info_cache listing several)
while the copy only contains Default. Chrome opens the missing profile
dir and starts signed out. Normalize the copy's Local State to
Default-only.
4. CDP resolution: the agent-browser daemon may report the endpoint of a
browser IT spawned (throwaway temp profile) instead of the real
browser we launched on the copy. Trust the port our browser wrote to
DevToolsActivePort.
Also adds browser.real_profile_pin (optional): pin which source Chromium
profile dir is snapshotted instead of following profile.last_used - on a
machine with a work profile and a personal one, last-used roulette can
silently give the agent the wrong identity. A pin naming a missing dir
fails closed (signed out) rather than falling back to last_used.
Tests: 4 new pin tests + 3 launch tests reshaped to the direct-launch
contract (Popen the real binary, agent-browser attaches). 77 passing.
- Add rolling status bar metrics:
- cache hit ratio (◈) delta since model/compression reset
(hit = cache_read / prompt, verified against live logs)
- avg latency (◷) and throughput (↑ t/s) over last 10 API calls
(deque in agent, displayed in wide bar only)
- Add display.tui_statusbar_fields list to filter segments:
model, ctx, ctx_bar, cache_hit, latency, tps, compressions,
bg_tasks, bg_processes, bg_subagents, goal, duration, prompt,
idle, focus, yolo, stash, battery, title
Missing/null -> all enabled (backward compat). Unknown keys ignored.
Title gated via right-align; stash/battery also gated.
- Wide bar (≥76 cols) respects fields, narrow/medium filtered,
overflow trim preserved. Battery also respects display.battery.
No private data; mock data in tests.
Test: pytest tests/cli/test_cli_status_bar.py etc. 68 passed,
check-windows-footguns clean.
Allow users to control which fields appear in the interactive CLI status
bar via display.status_bar.fields in config.yaml.
Available fields: model, context_pct, context_detail, compressions,
bg_tasks, bg_processes, duration, prompt_elapsed, yolo, total_tokens.
When the list is empty (default), all fields are shown as before.
The field order is fixed (model always first); the config controls
visibility only. Narrow terminals (<76 cols) automatically drop
context_detail regardless of config.
total_tokens is opt-in only (not shown by default) to avoid width
overflow in the prompt_toolkit fragment renderer.
Closes#41909
Add a cross-process lock over the shared ~/.claude/.credentials.json file
so concurrent Hermes processes racing a claude_code-sourced Anthropic
refresh resync instead of losing the update (mirrors the existing
per-profile auth-store lock, kept as the outer lock per the documented
lock-ordering invariant).
Remove the dashboard-triggered Anthropic PKCE OAuth flow entirely rather
than continue patching it: an unattended HTTP endpoint minting Claude
Pro/Max subscription tokens outside Anthropic's own client sits on the
wrong side of Anthropic's OAuth usage policy. The provider catalog entry
is now flow == "external", pointing at `hermes auth add anthropic`
(terminal PKCE, unaffected, out of scope). Drop the now-dead PKCE
functions/constants and the tests that exercised only that removed code.
Dashboard PKCE login reused the code_verifier as the OAuth state (leaking
it and disabling CSRF validation) and never checked state on callback --
the same class of bug already fixed for the CLI flow. Credential-pool
refresh excluded "anthropic" from the cross-process lock Codex/xAI already
get, so concurrent Hermes processes racing a single-use refresh token could
leave the loser stuck exhausted with no recovery for hermes_pkce/dashboard
sources. The dashboard OAuth save also never cleared a stale
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, which resolve_anthropic_token() prioritizes over the
OAuth pool entry by design -- so a leftover key silently kept billing
pay-per-token after a Claude Pro/Max login.
A concurrency stress test written to validate the refresh-race fix under
load surfaced a fifth, unrelated bug: _auth_store_lock()'s Windows
lock-file "ensure content" write was unguarded and could raise an uncaught
PermissionError under real contention -- affecting every single-use-token
provider sharing that lock, not just Anthropic.
Fixes#87887, #87888, #87889.
Follow-up to the #77848 salvage: mirror the curated model lists onto
the alibaba-cn / alibaba-coding-plan-cn / alibaba-token-plan-cn
profiles registered in #73345, and add all Alibaba variants to the
qwen provider group so they appear in the drill-down picker.
Token Plan (Personal Edition) model catalog for hermes model /
provider pickers, verified against a live Token Plan subscription
(2026-08-03). Provider profiles landed separately in #73345; this
carries the picker-list half of #77848.
Co-salvaged-from: PR #77848
Extends the real-profile machinery (PR #95620) to Brave Origin — Brave's
standalone paid build with a fully separate install identity:
- new canonical key 'brave-origin' in _CHROMIUM_BROWSERS
- Windows: BraveOHTML ProgId -> brave-origin; channel ProgIds BraveOBHTML/
BraveODHTML/BraveOSHTM fail closed (identifiers from brave-core
install_static)
- macOS: com.brave.Browser.origin bundle id (exact match); .beta/.dev/
.nightly channel bundles fail closed; /Applications/Brave Origin.app
- Linux: brave-origin.desktop matched BEFORE the bare 'brave' fragment
(substring scan would otherwise resolve an Origin default to stable
Brave and drive the wrong profile — #95549 wrong-principal invariant);
brave-origin-{beta,nightly,dev} fail closed
- profile dirs: BraveSoftware/Brave-Origin on all three OSes (per
brave-core kProductPathName + Homebrew cask zap paths)
- /browser connect launch tables: Brave Origin split into its OWN group
so a 'brave' executable lookup can never resolve to the Origin binary
- user-facing strings/docs/desktop tooltip updated
Tests: progid/bundle/desktop map params + data-dir resolution for all
three OSes; 125 passed in the three browser test files.
The synced identity text carries em-dashes, but install.ps1 must stay
pure ASCII (Windows PowerShell 5.1 reads BOM-less .ps1 in the ANSI code
page; a non-ASCII byte in a string literal desyncs the parser — see
tests/test_install_ps1_ascii_only.py, issues #66994/#67000). Seed the
ASCII-dashed variant there instead, and register that variant in
_LEGACY_TEMPLATE_SOULS so Windows installs converge onto the canonical
em-dash text on first run.
DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY was rewritten in agent/prompt_builder.py (behavior
spec, exploration-thrift line deliberately removed) but the actual seed
written to disk on first run, hermes_cli/default_soul.py's
DEFAULT_SOUL_MD, was never updated. ensure_hermes_home() writes
DEFAULT_SOUL_MD into SOUL.md on every fresh install before the agent's
first turn, so virtually all real users end up as "SOUL.md users" seeded
with the pre-rewrite text -- including the exact "targeted and efficient
exploration" line the rewrite explicitly banned -- while the new
DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY fallback essentially never serves the "fresh
install" audience its own PR body named as the target.
- DEFAULT_SOUL_MD now matches DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY exactly.
- The pre-rewrite text is added to _LEGACY_TEMPLATE_SOULS so installs
already seeded with it self-heal via the existing upgrade-in-place
mechanism (same guarantee as the comment-only scaffold entries: the
string carries zero user intent, so it's safe to replace).
- Synced the other places install.sh's own comment says "MUST match
DEFAULT_SOUL_MD": scripts/install.sh, scripts/install.ps1,
docker/SOUL.md, and the docs/i18n pages that quote the fallback text
verbatim.
Live-reproduced on main: /handoff poll-waited a flat 60s for a TERMINAL
state, but the gateway's dispatch is a full synthetic agent turn (whole
transcript replay + delivery) that routinely exceeds 60s on long sessions.
The CLI then printed "Timed out waiting for the gateway. Is `hermes
gateway` running?" (false diagnosis), called fail_handoff() on the RUNNING
row (stomping the gateway's claim), and promised "Your CLI session is
intact" after switch_session had already re-pointed the session. The
watcher later overwrote failed -> completed: split-brain.
- hermes_state.fail_handoff gains only_states CAS; waiters can only fail
rows still pending. Owner (gateway watcher) keeps the unconditional form.
- CLI wait loop is two-phase: 60s for the CLAIM (pending) — a timeout
there really does mean no gateway — then up to 15 min for the claimed
dispatch with 30s heartbeats; a running row is never failed by the CLI.
- Desktop handoff.fail RPC now CAS-fails pending rows only; a running row
returns {failed: false, state: running} instead of stomping the claim.
Repro (real _handoff_watcher, real state.db, CLI as separate process,
75s dispatch): before — CLI timeout @60s + false message + row stomped;
after — pending->running@5s->completed@80s, clean CLI exit.
Flip the salvaged --start-now behavior (PR #97958) into the unconditional
default: /loop's first iteration is due the moment the loop is set, then
recurs on the normal cadence. The flag is dropped — it was never released,
so there is nothing to deprecate.
- LoopManager.set(): next_due_at = now for both cadence modes
- drop --start-now parsing, the persisted LoopState.start_now field, and
the flag from help text; confirmation now always says the first wakeup
fires now
- tests updated to pin the new default (incl. the TUI not-due test, which
now has to push next_due_at out explicitly)
- docs: quick-start and command table describe the immediate first run
/loop [interval] <prompt> currently schedules the first wakeup one full
interval after the command runs (next_due_at = now + interval). When the
user just told Hermes what to check, waiting the whole interval before
any output feels like the command was ignored.
Add an opt-in --start-now flag that keeps Claude Code parity as the
default but lets the user run the first iteration immediately, then
continue on the cadence:
/loop 1h check the deploy status # first run in 1h (unchanged)
/loop 1h --start-now check the deploy # first run now, then hourly
- parse_loop_args(): parse and strip --start-now (leading or trailing)
- LoopState: new persisted start_now field (default False, survives
serialization round-trip and old rows missing the field)
- LoopManager.set(): next_due_at = now when start_now, for both fixed
interval and self-paced modes
- dispatch_loop_command(): wire start_now through, update help text, and
report "First wakeup fires now" in the confirmation
- website/docs: document the flag in the /loop guide
- tests: parse (trailing/leading/absent/self-paced/combo/prompt-word),
tick lifecycle (due immediately vs after interval), serde round-trip,
and dispatch-level confirmation
The inline set-comprehension re-implemented modelName extraction that
_extract_model_name() already provides (and that both
union_with_portal_free/paid_recommendations already use). Beyond the
duplication, the inline str(entry.get("modelName", "")) stringified
non-string values — a malformed Portal entry with modelName 5 would have
produced a garbage "5" match that discard("") does not filter. The helper
isinstance-checks and returns None for those, so routing through it makes
the validation tier semantically identical to the union helpers.
Adds test_non_string_model_name_entries_ignored locking the behavior
(mutation-checked: fails on the raw-stringify form, passes on the helper).
Fixes#71312 (duplicate #71313).
When selecting a model via the Telegram /model picker (or any other
messaging-platform slash command, since they all share
validate_requested_model() through gateway/slash_commands.py ->
model_switch.switch_model()), a model available via Nous Portal's live
/api/nous/recommended-models endpoint but not yet in the hardcoded
curated catalog (_PROVIDER_MODELS["nous"]) was rejected with "was not
found in this provider's model listing" -- even though the exact same
model works fine via `hermes chat -m <model> --provider nous`.
Root cause: `hermes chat` merges Portal recommendations into its model
list via union_with_portal_free_recommendations() /
union_with_portal_paid_recommendations() at model-list build time
(hermes_cli/auth.py, web_server.py, model_setup_flows.py,
model_switch.py), so the model already appears "known" by the time
validation runs for that path. validate_requested_model() itself,
which every per-message /model command goes through, only checked the
live /v1/models listing and the curated catalog (_model_in_provider_catalog) --
never the Portal recommendations feed -- so a model that exists only
in Portal Recommendations was rejected on that path specifically.
Fix: add a Nous-specific fallback tier in validate_requested_model(),
checked after the curated-catalog fallback and before the final
rejection, reading the same fetch_nous_recommended_models() feed
(free + paid tiers) the CLI union helpers already use. Scoped to
provider == "nous" only; short-circuits before the network call when
an earlier tier already accepted the model; fails closed (rejects,
doesn't crash) if the Portal feed is unreachable.
