Follow-up on the salvaged #71610 commits:
- acquire/release a scoped lock on relay_url+pubkey in connect/disconnect
(IRC pattern) so two profiles can't drive one Buzz identity — duplicate
replies and split de-dupe state; +2 tests
- negative-cache _resolve_user_name failures so a profile-less pubkey
doesn't re-hit 'users get' every poll sweep (flagged by @jethac on the PR)
- register user-guide/messaging/buzz in website/sidebars.ts (page was
unreachable — the #63359 trap)
On hosted relays `buzz dms list` reliably returns [] even when DM
conversations exist, so DMs leaked in via `channels list` (as entries
named "DM" with an empty description) and were seeded chat_type="group".
That put them behind the channel mention gate: "@Chip /whoami" worked
but an un-mentioned DM was silently dropped.
Classify from the Nostr tags of real traffic instead: a message another
user sends in a DM carries a structural ["p", <own pubkey>] tag even
when the text never mentions the agent, while in a real channel a
p-tag-to-self only ever accompanies a visible @mention (typed mention
or reply). A group conversation therefore latches to chat_type="dm" on
the first kind-9 event that is p-tagged to self WITHOUT a visible
mention in the content — guarded by channels-list metadata so a real
community channel (real name / non-empty description) is never
reclassified by a reply or mention that p-tags the agent.
- latch during history seeding too, so a leaked DM bypasses the
mention gate from the very first poll after connect
- keep `dms list` as a best-effort source, and scan `channels list`
as a fallback so DM conversations opened mid-run still get watched
- strip a leading @mention in DMs as well, so "@Chip /whoami" keeps
firing as a slash command after the conversation reclassifies

Plugin-path adapter (zero core changes) connecting Hermes to a Buzz
community relay via the buzz CLI binary (JSON in/out, arg-list exec,
key passed via env only). Inbound uses a poll loop with per-channel
high-water marks seeded from newest (no history replay), event-id
de-dupe, self-echo suppression by pubkey, and mention gating in
channels (DMs always dispatch). Registers env_enablement, cron
home-channel delivery, and an out-of-process standalone sender,
mirroring the IRC plugin.
Verified against a live relay: connect -> send -> poll -> MessageEvent
round-trip, self-echo suppressed, clean disconnect.
Known limitation: polled inbound (default 4s); a websocket transport
(buzz-ws-client) is a future optimization.

Port from openai/codex#34540 / #34612 ("detach non-interactive
subprocesses from stdin"): internal git invocations that run with nobody
attached — MCP catalog installs, plugin install/update, profile
distribution staging, worktree base fetches, and the desktop review
pane's git/gh backend — could hang on a credential prompt when a remote
is private, misconfigured, or requires auth. git prompts on the
inherited terminal (or via Git Credential Manager on Windows), so the
operation silently waits until its timeout, or forever at sites without
one (mcp_catalog clones have no timeout at all and inherit the parent
terminal).
- Add noninteractive_git_env() to hermes_cli/_subprocess_compat.py:
GIT_TERMINAL_PROMPT=0 + GCM_INTERACTIVE=Never on a copy of the
environment; GIT_ASKPASS/SSH_ASKPASS deliberately preserved so
working non-interactive auth still succeeds.
- Wire it + stdin=DEVNULL into: mcp_catalog._do_git_install (clone/
checkout), plugins_cmd (clone + pull), profile_distribution._git_clone,
web_git._git/_gh (gh also gets GH_PROMPT_DISABLED=1), and cli.py's
worktree base fetch helper.
- Tests: env contract, a real-git E2E against a local 401 Basic-auth
HTTP server proving fail-fast ("terminal prompts disabled") instead
of a hang, and per-call-site plumbing assertions. Sabotage-verified:
removing the env from web_git._git fails the site test.
Uvicorn's 16 MiB default drops one-shot base64 remote attachments before
Hermes sees them. Raise ws_max_size to fit the 256 MiB attach reader after
base64 expansion, and bump DESKTOP_BACKEND_CONTRACT to v5 so older remotes
surface skew instead of silent disconnects.

The catalog advertises every skill command but nothing about which ones
the user actually reaches for, so consumers can only sort them
alphabetically. Add a `skills` map keyed by slash command carrying the
activity count and origin (hub / bundled / local) already tracked in the
skills sidecars, read once per catalog build.
Additive: older clients ignore the field, and an unreadable sidecar
degrades to zero usage rather than failing the catalog.
Hardened-runtime restrictions are enforced even for ad-hoc signatures,
so signing with --options runtime without the allow-jit entitlements
would leave Electron/V8 crashing on launch — strictly worse than the
legacy plain ad-hoc sign. Raise instead, so the fixup falls back to the
legacy path and the bundle always stays launchable.
Local/self-updated macOS builds were finished with a plain
'codesign --force --deep --sign -', leaving a cdhash-only Designated
Requirement and stripping electron-builder's entitlements. Every rebuild
changes the cdhash, so TCC treats the new bundle as different code and
forgets Full Disk Access, Desktop/Downloads/Documents, Accessibility,
Automation, and microphone grants — users re-approve everything after
every update.
Rework the relaunch fixup to sign inside-out (standalone Mach-O
binaries, nested frameworks/helpers, then the main bundle), preserving
the repo's entitlement plists, and pin an identifier-based Designated
Requirement when signing ad-hoc so TCC has a stable identity to persist.
Opt-in desktop.macos_signing_identity names a persistent keychain cert
(self-signed Code Signing cert works — no Apple Developer account) for a
certificate-anchored DR, the strongest form. An intact Developer ID
signature is detected and never clobbered, callers can pass the
publisher-signing decision explicitly so a later dotenv load can't flip
it, and the legacy deep ad-hoc sign remains the last-resort fallback.

Real temp-HERMES_HOME tests for _broadcast_watched_changes: silent seed,
cron/sessions signature moves, the 2s sessions floor's trailing edge, the
pet signature staying 'off' without a renderable pet, meta payload on
pet.changed, and a broken probe never killing the pass. Part of #73618.
The client called its gate "the DEV-PHASE gate (tool_gateway_admin)", which
reads as though Skill Sync is gated on an unrelated service's admin right.
It isn't. NAS populates that claim from Permissions.ADMIN_ACCESS — the global
portal admin permission that guards /admin/* — so the gate is "is this user a
Nous admin?". The claim is simply named for its first consumer, the tool
gateway.
Renamed on this side to say what it means, while keeping the wire string
(other services read it):
- DEV_GATE_CLAIM -> NOUS_ADMIN_CLAIM (value unchanged: "tool_gateway_admin",
with a comment recording why the wire name differs).
- identity/status key dev_gate_ok -> nous_admin, across the client, the CLI
consumers, and the tests.
- The module docstring now states where the claim comes from, that the wire
name is misleading, and that this gate is pre-launch containment rather
than the shipping entitlement — admin status conflates "may administer
Nous" with "has Skill Sync enabled" and has no middle setting for a beta
cohort. Choosing the real entitlement is left as a separate decision.
Naming only — no behaviour change, and no change to which accounts can sync.
The user-facing messages stay deliberately vague ("not enabled for your
account yet") rather than telling users they need portal admin.
Verified: 2346 passed / 0 failed across 56 suites via scripts/run_tests.sh;
`hermes sync status` against a live token reports "nous_admin": true. Zero
stale dev_gate_ok / DEV_GATE_CLAIM references remain.
Encapsulates the feature behind one command for launch, and adopts the
official product name.
One command:
- `propose` moves from `hermes skills propose` to `hermes sync propose`, so
the whole feature is one command to learn and one to document. Its handler
moves from cmd_skills to cmd_sync accordingly.
- The `hermes sync` parser now documents both halves plainly: personal sync
across your devices, and sharing with your organisation. Added an examples
epilog; rewrote the verb help in user language ("Include a skill in your
sync" rather than "Opt a skill into sync").
- Every user-facing string that pointed at `hermes skills propose` now points
at `hermes sync propose` (8 sites, including the agent-visible guidance
returned by skill_manage and the org provenance header).
This also clears the way for #39343, which adds its own top-level `sync` for
git-repo profile backup — that feature nests under `skills`, this one owns
`sync`.
Naming:
- HSP / "Hermes Sync Protocol" is gone from prose, docstrings, and comments.
The feature is "Skill Sync".
- Public identifiers renamed: HSPClient -> SyncClient, HSPError -> SyncError,
HSPConflict -> SyncConflict, hsp_address -> wire_address, HSP_VERSION ->
WIRE_VERSION.
- The WIRE names are deliberately NOT renamed: the `hsp_version` capability
field and the `x-hsp-object-type` response header are set by the deployed
gateway-gateway sync plane (verified in src/sync/syncRouter.ts), so
renaming them client-side would break sync against a live server. A comment
at the version constant records why they differ from the product name.
- The version-mismatch error is now actionable ("this server speaks sync
version X, but this Hermes speaks Y — update Hermes to sync with it")
instead of leaking the protocol acronym.
Also fixes a wiring gap found on the way: the gateway housekeeping tick
pulled personal skills but never org skills — the same defect already fixed
for the CLI. Org pull now runs there too, gated on real org membership.
Tests: the jargon guard now also fails on a bare "HSP". The two tests that
asserted the old cross-command structure are replaced by three asserting the
new one (propose IS under sync, propose is NOT under skills, sync usage
lists it). 2294 passed / 0 failed across all 51 suites that import the
changed modules, via scripts/run_tests.sh.
Verified by running the real CLI: `hermes sync --help` lists all eight verbs,
`hermes skills --help` no longer mentions propose, `hermes sync propose
--help` parses, and `hermes sync status` still reports live org state.
* Revert "fix(credits): remove the 'Grant spent · $X top-up left' notice"
This reverts commit 5dc6a14c14.
* fix(credits): reintroduce grant_spent behind an in-session crossing gate
The removed notice nagged because its condition is a steady state for
accounts living on top-up, the latch is per-session, and the cold-start seed
runs the policy at every session open — every session re-announced
'Grant spent · $X top-up left'. Reintroduce it gated so only a session that
WATCHES the grant run out announces:
- seen_grant_unspent crossing gate, mirroring seen_below_90: opens when the
session observes the grant meaningfully unspent (>= GRANT_UNSPENT_MIN_MICROS,
1 cent — portal-seeded states derive micros from float dollars and can carry
sub-cent residue where headers report exactly spent). Seeds never prime it.
- The gate guards only the show branch and is consumed by the announcement —
one announcement per crossing. Header flicker (used_fraction None and back)
clears the sticky line but cannot re-announce; a renewal re-opens the gate.
- new_credits_latch() centralizes the latch shape (agent build, lazy re-init,
and the policy test helper all build through it).
- Tests: steady-state-open stays silent (seed + policy seams), live crossing
announces once, flicker/renewal/residual cases locked; the rendering test
primes the gate and asserts its leg count so a gate regression cannot
silently shrink coverage.
CI (Linux) failed with ModuleNotFoundError: portalocker — it's a
win32-only dependency (concurrent-log-handler chain). Tests now lock
handles via a platform helper (fcntl on POSIX, portalocker on Windows),
mirroring production _try_acquire_mcp_discovery_lock.
Detached background delegation batches (_batch_runner) no longer honor
the foreground parent's interrupt flag — a busy-submit interrupt in the
TUI/desktop previously fabricated 'interrupted' results for background
children that should outlive the turn. Explicit cancellation still works
via _batch_interrupt.
Rebased onto current main from PR #65040; both interrupt-suppression
regression tests aligned with the current _session test helper.
Original work by @AtakanGs in #65040.
The autouse _audio_playback_guard from this PR stubs voice.speak_text
globally — but these tests exercise speak_text itself with their own
playback stubs (no real audio possible). Mark real_audio_playback so
the guard yields; the tests' own monkeypatches keep speakers silent.
Main's streaming path now resolves providers via
tools.tts_streaming.resolve_streaming_provider rather than constructing an
ElevenLabs client inline; stub the registry resolver instead so the test is
provider-agnostic and hermetic.
`_play_via_tempfile` passes the NamedTemporaryFile *object* to `wave.open()`.
`wave.open()` flushes but does not close a file it did not open itself (by
name), so the OS handle to the temp WAV stays open. On Windows that open write
handle blocks the system player from reading the file and blocks the
`os.unlink()` cleanup (WinError 32, silently swallowed by `except OSError:
pass`), leaving orphaned temp .wav files piling up. The fallback runs whenever
no sounddevice output stream is available (sounddevice not installed / no audio
device), which is common on headless and Windows setups.
Close the temp file handle before invoking the player and again in the finally
block (idempotent), so the player can read the file and `os.unlink()` can
remove it.
Regression test drives `stream_tts_to_speaker` with the sounddevice path forced
unavailable and asserts the temp handle is closed before `play_audio_file` is
called (mutation-verified: reverting the close leaves the handle open at play
time and the test fails). Cross-platform.
Follow-up to salvaged PR #56473: dedupe the five cleanup_*_cache bodies
into a shared _cleanup_cache_dir() helper, add cleanup_video_cache() and
cleanup_screenshot_cache() (with get_screenshot_cache_dir()), and drive
all five from a single (name, fn) loop in _start_gateway_housekeeping()
instead of one copy-pasted try/except per cache. Covers the video/
screenshot half of #56427.
Adds cleanup_audio_cache() to gateway/platforms/base.py and wires it into
_start_gateway_housekeeping() in gateway/run.py, matching the existing
image/document cache cleanup pattern.
Re-implements the fix proposed in #16473, which targeted the now-deprecated
_start_cron_ticker() and has since stalled with a merge conflict against
main. _start_gateway_housekeeping()'s docstring already claimed audio
cleanup ("prunes the image/audio/document cache"); this makes the code
match it.

Review follow-up: test_micro_pause_tolerance_during_speech was left on real
sleeps, so it kept the wall-clock dependency the rest of this PR removes.
Its three sleeps (50 ms, 50 ms, 60 ms) feed the same monotonic gate at
tools/voice_mode.py:561 that the other two tests were converted for.
It was measured rather than assumed before being left out: 0 failures in 40
runs, because on Windows sleep() rounds up to the timer tick, so sleep(0.05)
really costs ~62.5 ms and the three sleeps clear the 150 ms gate by ~37.5 ms
-- wider than the 15.625 ms GetTickCount64() quantum that made the other two
flake. That margin is an accident of sleep granularity rather than anything
the test guarantees, so it is not worth keeping the bet.
Driving it from fake_clock makes the timeline exact (0.05 + 0.05 + 0.06 =
0.16 against the 0.15 gate, dip 0.05 under the 0.1 tolerance) and drops the
real sleeping from the suite. Mutation-checked: widening the gate at :561
fails the test.
test_silence_callback_fires_after_speech_then_silence and
test_custom_threshold_and_duration space their audio frames with
time.sleep(0.06) and check the result against 50 ms thresholds. That
leaves a 10 ms margin, which only survives if the clock is finer-grained
than the margin — and on Windows it isn't. time.monotonic() there is
GetTickCount64() with 15.625 ms resolution until CPython 3.13 moved it to
QueryPerformanceCounter(), so a sleep that really lasts 62.5 ms measures
as 46.9 ms often enough to matter, landing under the threshold. Depending
on which sleep got clipped, either the speech-confirm gate misses or the
silence timer never matures — which is why the same flake shows up on two
different asserts.
Both tests now advance a hand-driven clock instead of sleeping, so the
arithmetic is exact on every platform and neither test waits on real time.
The fixture patches the `time` name inside tools.voice_mode rather than
time.monotonic itself: voice_mode.time IS the stdlib module, so patching
through it would swap the clock out from under every other importer for
the duration of the test.
Measured on Windows 11 / Python 3.11.9, 20 runs of each test: 6/20 and
3/20 failed before, 0/30 after. The same machine on Python 3.13, where
monotonic() is QueryPerformanceCounter(), never failed either test — that
comparison is what pinned the clock resolution as the cause rather than
the detection logic. Linux CI never sees this: clock_gettime is
nanosecond-resolution there.
These tests mock the actual download; stub is_safe_url so host DNS/proxy
mappings for cdn.discordapp.com can't decide whether document handling is
exercised.
Residual hunk salvaged from PR #25426 — the rest of that PR's hermeticity
fixes (bedrock botocore fakes, faster_whisper module fakes, kittentts
plain-sequence PCM, web-provider SSRF stubs) have since landed on main in
equivalent form.
Running the suite could take over the machine it ran on. Two real
effects, both now closed:
- **The suite spoke through the speakers.** Once any test drove the
`voice.toggle` RPC with `action="tts"`, the handler set
`HERMES_VOICE_TTS=1` in the *live process environment*, and the flag
outlived that test. Every later test that drove a turn to completion
then fed its final response text to `hermes_cli.voice.speak_text` on a
background thread - real synthesis, real playback, no API key needed
(the default `edge` provider is keyless). A developer heard the fixture
string "partial answer complete" out loud. Because the flag is set from
inside the process, `scripts/run_tests.sh`'s `env -i` never protected
against this.
`tests/conftest.py` now blanks `HERMES_VOICE`/`HERMES_VOICE_TTS` per
test, and a new autouse `_audio_playback_guard` stubs `speak_text` and
its playback binding outright, so the speakers stay shut even inside the
test that sets the flag itself. `@pytest.mark.real_audio_playback` opts
out.
- **The suite launched Chrome.** `tests/tools/test_browser_supervisor.py`
spawned a real browser on any machine with Chrome on `PATH`. Its
docstring promised a `HERMES_E2E_BROWSER=1` gate that existed nowhere in
the code. That gate is now real, and the file is marked `integration`
so the default marker filter excludes it. `scripts/run_tests.sh`
forwards `HERMES_E2E_BROWSER` so the documented manual run still works.
Miscellanea
- `tests/test_audio_playback_guard.py`: regression cover for both defences,
driving the real `voice.toggle` handler rather than a stand-in.
Address teknium1 review on PR #47125: the existing adapter-level tests cover
the prerequisites (_download_voice / _collect_media / _extract_text) but not
the gateway-runner handoff. Add TestWeixinVoiceGatewayHandoff covering the
final routing contract:
- An inbound Weixin voice item carrying Tencent Cloud text is surfaced as a
VOICE MessageEvent whose media is audio/silk (the shape the runner keys off
to enter Hermes' STT pipeline), exercised through the real _process_message.
- That VOICE event's body does NOT leak Tencent's STT text, so the central
transcript replaces it rather than being trusted.
- A VOICE/audio/silk event reaches the real GatewayRunner
_enrich_message_with_transcription (patched as a spy), proving the runner
handoff the adapter-only tests missed.
When WeChat (Weixin) returns a voice_item.text (Tencent Cloud's STT),
Hermes previously trusted that text as the user-visible message body and
skipped downloading the raw audio. For non-Chinese audio that text is
garbage — the original report was a Russian voice message that came
back as English phonemes — and the user sees nonsense as their own
message. International users on the WeChat gateway effectively can't
use voice.
Two short-circuits in gateway/platforms/weixin.py caused this:
- _download_voice() returned None whenever voice_item.text was set,
so the raw SILK/Opus audio was never fetched.
- _extract_text() returned voice_item.text verbatim as the body,
so even if the audio had been downloaded, the central STT
pipeline in gateway/run.py never had a chance to replace it.
Fix both: always download the raw audio (the central pipeline picks
it up via _collect_media()), and skip voice items in _extract_text()
so the body comes from Hermes' own mlx-whisper / whisper.cpp /
faster-whisper transcription instead of Tencent's. Behavior is
unchanged when voice_item.text is absent (the original happy path
where audio was already being downloaded).
Tests:
- 5 new tests in TestWeixinVoiceAlwaysDownloaded covering both
functions, the _collect_media integration path, and a
regression guard for the text-item path.
- 74/74 in tests/gateway/test_weixin.py pass.
- Move U+FFFC placeholder detection before _record_last_inbound() so the
placeholder message id is not recorded as the reaction target
- Cancel pending U+FFFC tasks in disconnect() to prevent task leaks
- Check mimeType audio/x-caf in addition to filename for CAF→VOICE promotion,
fixing unnamed attachments that default to '(unnamed)'
- Add 7 Photon adapter tests: CAF named/unnamed promotion, U+FFFC no-dispatch,
U+FFFC not recorded as last inbound, U+FFFC+attachment cancel, timeout fire,
disconnect cleanup
- Add 6 transcription tests: ffmpeg conversion, afconvert fallback, all-fail,
CAF→WAV before Groq, conversion failure error, local provider skip
Minimal fix: add 'if ct == "file": return False' before extension
matching. The original fallback logic is preserved for empty/unknown
content_types. Only the bug case (file uploads with audio extensions)
is fixed.
Removed the over-engineered _looks_like_voice helper.
