Second, deeper pass over tools/gateway/hermes_cli plus first pass over
the trees wave 1 missed (acp, acp_adapter, skills, computer_use, docker,
dashboard, conformance, monitoring, secret_sources, hermes_state,
providers). Same rubric as wave 1 (AGENTS.md test policy); security,
alternation/caching invariants, issue-number regressions, and E2E kept.
Real test-quality fixes found and rooted out along the way:
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py made real auxiliary-LLM HTTPS calls
(DEFAULT_CONFIG smart-approval leaked in) — pinned approval
mode=manual via autouse fixture: 17.4s → 0.4s.
- test_model_switch_custom_providers.py / test_user_providers_model_switch.py
silently probed live provider catalogs (~2s/test) — stubbed
cached_provider_model_ids/provider_model_ids/fetch_api_models.
- test_telegram_noise_filter.py: 15-platform copy-paste matrix over
shared gateway.run logic → 3 representative platforms (55s → 3.9s).
- test_gateway_shutdown.py: stop()'s 5s interrupt-deadline loop spun on
MagicMock agents — interrupt.side_effect now clears _running_agents
(22s → 1.0s).
- test_gateway_inactivity_timeout.py poll-harness timings shrunk 3-5x
(24s → 1.1s); test_mcp_stability.py backoff/SIGTERM-grace sleeps
patched (15.4s → 2.5s); test_async_delegation.py negative-drain wait
5s → 0.5s.
- test_telegram_init_deadline.py: loop-block margin restored to 1.0s
with rationale comment — the watchdog-dump assertion needs the loop
blocked well past deadline+grace under parallel load (flaked once in
the 40-worker verification run at a 0.2s margin).
Verification: full hermetic suite via scripts/run_tests.sh —
2,438 files, 21,718 tests passed, 0 failed, 293.9s wall.
Suite totals vs original baseline: 46,820 → 19,757 test functions
(−57.8%), wall 583.5s → 293.9s (−50%), subprocess CPU 13,564s → 11,623s.
One relay adapter fronts N platforms on one WS, but the capability surface
(MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH / message_len_fn) was a scalar from whichever descriptor
resolved the handshake — and the transport's read loop OVERWROTE it on every
descriptor frame (last-writer-wins). A Discord chat on a gateway whose
applied descriptor was Telegram's inherited the 4,096-char cap and over-sent
into Discord's 2,000-char API 400 (observed live: 2,543/2,641-char replies
silently lost while inbound kept working).
- ws_transport: accumulate one descriptor per platform in
_descriptors_by_platform (exposed via descriptor_for_platform); the FIRST
descriptor of a connection generation stays the session default instead of
last-writer-wins; the map resets on re-dial.
- BasePlatformAdapter: new max_message_length_for_chat /
message_len_fn_for_chat hooks defaulting to the scalar surface (native
single-platform adapters unchanged).
- RelayAdapter: overrides resolve the chat's platform from _platform_by_chat
(the same map per-frame egress uses) and look up that platform's negotiated
descriptor; falls back to the scalar for unknown chats/transports.
- stream_consumer (streaming budget, _raw_message_limit, fallback-continuation
chunking) + run.py tool-progress limit now resolve per-chat.
Tests: tests/gateway/relay/test_relay_per_platform_caps.py (7) — verified
fail-without/pass-with (all 7 fail with the fix stashed). Relay + stream
consumer suites green (213 + 223).
