Follow-ups on top of the salvaged #80696 fix (review findings):
- Sibling sites: rollback.restore, gateway /retry, CLI /retry and /undo N,
and both CLI resume turn counters now use is_user_originated_turn so
legacy-persisted standalone handoffs (durable role=user, no display_kind)
can never be truncation targets or counted as user turns (#80622
suggested regression 4, dispatcher-wide).
- Site-1 guard: hoist the api_call_count decrement + iteration-budget
refund above the break so a skipped turn no longer leaks a budget unit
and finalize_turn logs the true call count (matches the ollama early-exit
and the site-2 sibling).
- Site-2 guard: run the handoff guard BEFORE reanchoring so a restored
user ask is what the anchor lands on, not a stale pre-restore index.
- SUMMARY_PREFIX: add the mid-tool-loop carve-out the code-side guard
already implements, so a literal-minded model doesn't halt an in-flight
exchange after in-place compaction.
- Skip path returns a short compaction status instead of replaying the
previous turn's answer (finalize_turn would append it as a fresh
assistant row — duplicate prose in transcript and delivery).
/retry truncates the live transcript to before the last user message
and persists it via SessionStore.rewrite_transcript, which calls
replace_messages() with the default active_only=False. That DELETEs
every row for the session, including the soft-archived
active=0/compacted=1 rows that in-place compaction keeps on disk
(#38763), so any /retry after a compaction permanently wiped the
archived history. #57803 named this call site as a residual gap after
its global-default approach was rejected; the TUI sibling was fixed
in #80195.
The handler now probes has_archived_messages() (new SessionStore
wrapper, auto-exposed through AsyncSessionStore) and passes
active_only=True when archives exist, so only the live rows are
replaced. rewrite_transcript gains an active_only parameter that
defaults to False, keeping the destructive semantics yuanbao recall
redaction depends on. Also corrects the rewrite_transcript docstring,
which still listed /undo as a caller even though /undo soft-archives
via rewind_session.
The regression test drives _handle_retry_command against a real
SessionStore and SessionDB seeded with archived compaction rows and
asserts the archives survive.
/refine [focus] fires the existing background review fork
(AIAgent._spawn_background_review) immediately instead of waiting for
the automatic 10-turn memory / 10-iteration skill nudge counters.
Optional focus instructions are appended to the review prompt so the
fork prioritizes what the user asked for (e.g. '/refine save the
deploy workflow as a skill').
- New optional focus parameter threaded through
_spawn_background_review -> spawn_background_review_thread.
Automatic post-turn reviews pass None and their prompts are
byte-identical to before.
- CLI handler snapshots conversation_history; gateway handler pulls
the idle session's cached AIAgent from _agent_cache (rejected while
the agent is running).
- Review runs in a daemon thread against the snapshot — live
conversation, message alternation, and prompt cache untouched.
- Slack stays under the 50-slash cap via /hermes refine.
Adapted from the /refine concept in Prime Intellect's Prime-Agent
(Continual Harness); Hermes' equivalent durable state is the
memory + skill stores, so the review fork is the natural target.
/heartbeat every <interval> <prompt> gives the current session one
recurring instruction. When the session is idle and the interval has
elapsed, the prompt is injected as a plain user turn — same
conversation, same context, prompt cache and role alternation
untouched.
- CLI: idle-poll watchdog thread (wake-word watchdog pattern) feeding
_pending_input; gateway: single gateway-wide async poller injecting
through the adapter FIFO. Busy sessions coalesce their tick to the
next idle poll.
- Missed ticks coalesce (anchor resets on fire) — a busy hour yields
ONE heartbeat turn, never a backlog. Real user messages always win.
- 60s interval floor; injected prompt carries a don't-invent-work
guard so idle heartbeats don't generate busywork.
- State persists in SessionDB.state_meta (heartbeat:<session_id>),
survives /resume, migrates across compression session rotations
alongside /goal state.
- Session-scoped and in-process by design — durable cross-process
schedules remain the cron subsystem's job (docs draw the boundary).
- Slack stays under the 50-slash cap via /hermes heartbeat; ghost-text
suggester now prefers the shortest prefix match so /he still
suggests /help.
Adapted from the session-heartbeat concept in Prime Intellect's
Prime-Agent (/heartbeat).
/goal gate add <command> attaches shell commands to the active goal.
Gates run at turn boundary BEFORE the LLM judge: a failing gate skips
the judge entirely and feeds its exit code + bounded output tail back
as the continuation prompt, so the agent iterates against concrete
evidence instead of a prose verdict.
- Unchanged-workspace skip: a gate that failed on an identical
workspace (git HEAD + status fingerprint) is not re-run — the
recorded failure replays and the attempt count advances.
- Bounded retries (default 3) + per-gate timeout (default 300s);
exhaustion auto-pauses the goal like the turn budget does.
- Gates persist in SessionDB.state_meta with the goal (survive
/resume and compression rotation); pre-gate goal rows load
unchanged.
- /goal gate [list|add|remove|clear] on CLI + gateway; 'gate' added
to the mid-run control-verb whitelist (gates only run at turn
boundary, so editing the list mid-run is safe).
Adapted from the quality-gate concept in Prime Intellect's Prime-Agent
(--autonomous-gate).
Offload manual /compress temporary-agent cleanup through the existing
bounded off-loop helper so a slow agent.close() cannot freeze the
gateway event loop, heartbeat, or platform polling.
Guarantee Relay transport teardown even when the runner cancels
adapter.disconnect() during go_idle: shielded finally, 2s drain-path
idle ACK budget under the 5s outer disconnect budget, and bounded
supervisor/reader/ws.close awaits.
Original commits:
- fix(gateway): offload manual /compress cleanup from the event loop
- fix(gateway): tear down Relay transport even if go_idle is cancelled
- fix(gateway): keep Relay disconnect budgets inside the runner window
By @Dannyzen (PR #78027), salvaged onto current main.
Simplify-pass folds on the #23254 salvage:
- REUSE (HIGH): append_messages_batch now delegates row serialization to
the pre-existing _insert_message_rows helper (already shared by
replace_messages / archive_and_compact / portability import) instead
of adding a third serialization path (_prepare_message_row +
_MESSAGE_INSERT_SQL are gone). One row-writer for every multi-row
path; the row-ID return was consumed by no production caller, so the
batch returns the inserted count.
- QUALITY (HIGH): the compression-lock + compression-closed admission
guards are extracted into _check_transcript_write_guards, shared by
append_message and append_messages_batch (previously duplicated 23
lines that had already needed targeted fixes, #74478). The role-gated
reasoning filtering is no longer duplicated in run_agent.py — it
lives at its one site inside _insert_message_rows.
- EFFICIENCY (MEDIUM, measured): unbounded seed copies hold one BEGIN
IMMEDIATE for seconds (10k rows ~= 2.4s; FTS triggers dominate) and
monopolize the in-process write lock. append_messages_batch grows a
chunk_rows param; all seed/copy call sites use chunk_rows=500. Same
recovery semantics as the old per-row loops, bounded lock holds.
- REUSE (MEDIUM): the two remaining per-row branch-copy loops found by
the pass (gateway/slash_commands.py /branch, hermes_cli
cli_commands_mixin.py branch) are converted to chunked batches too
(AsyncSessionDB's generic to_thread forwarder covers the async site).
Turn-flush benchmark unchanged after the refactor: 2.43 -> 0.87 ms
median per 5-message flush (64% faster).
Multiplexed gateways resolve credentials through the fail-closed
per-profile secret scope (agent/secret_scope.py, Workstream A): any
get_secret() read outside a set_secret_scope(...) block raises
UnscopedSecretError. The agent turn installs the scope via _run_agent's
profile-scoping wrapper, but slash-command dispatch does not — so manual
/compress reached provider resolution unscoped and every invocation on a
gateway.multiplex_profiles: true deployment failed with:
Manual compress failed: get_secret('OPENROUTER_BASE_URL') called with
no profile secret scope active while multiplexing is on.
Same bug class as the cron scheduler (#57692) and the /v1/runs agent
path — an un-migrated call site the fail-closed design is meant to catch.
Two changes, both required:
- _handle_compress_command becomes a profile-scoping wrapper around the
existing handler (renamed _handle_compress_command_inner), mirroring
_run_agent: gated on multiplex_profiles, resolves the source profile's
home and runs the whole handler inside _profile_runtime_scope. Covers
the coroutine-side read (_resolve_session_agent_runtime).
- The compressor call switches from a bare loop.run_in_executor(None, …)
to the existing _run_in_executor_with_context helper, so the scope
contextvar survives the thread hop into _compress_context, where the
aux-client provider resolution reads credentials.
Single-profile gateways take the pass-through branch — zero behavior
change (pinned by test).
Tests: 2 added (scoped read inside the executor under fail-closed
multiplexing reproduces the field failure pre-fix; single-profile
pass-through). 162 gateway compress/multiplex-scope tests green.
Follow-ups to the previous commit (#74155 by @Drexuxux):
- enrich_model_switch_warnings_for_gateway() -> merge_preflight_compression_warning()
still called the sync resolve_display_context_length() provider probe ladder
inline in both async /model call sites; dispatch it via asyncio.to_thread.
- Replace the inspect.getsource() test (source-reading tests are banned by
AGENTS.md) with behavioral tests that drive the real _handle_model_command:
assert the resolver runs off the loop thread and that the warning enrichment
is dispatched through asyncio.to_thread.
resolve_display_context_length() runs two blocking chains: the route
comparison in should_clear_context_pin() and the provider probe ladder in
get_model_context_length() (blocking requests calls to Anthropic /v1/models,
Copilot, Nous, Codex, GMI, Ollama, models.dev and OpenRouter).
The gateway message path already offloads both via
get_model_context_length_async() and should_clear_context_pin_async(), but
the /model slash-command handlers (_handle_model_command, _finish_switch)
called the sync helper directly, freezing the whole event loop for the
duration of the probe ladder - no messages processed on any platform, and
the Discord heartbeat timeouts that get_model_context_length_async() was
introduced to prevent.
Add resolve_display_context_length_async(), a thin asyncio.to_thread wrapper
mirroring the two existing *_async helpers (no logic duplication), and await
it at both handlers.
The restart-routing, systemd-support, and subprocess-HOME tests asserted
branch behavior but left part of the real probe surface unmocked, so they
fail when the suite itself runs inside a container (self-hosted CI) or a
launchd-descended shell:
- /restart routing tests: the handler also consults the real /.dockerenv —
extract the inline probe to gateway.restart.is_container_restart_context()
(patchable seam, no behavior change) and pin it False; scrub ALL four
supervisor env markers (ambient XPC_SERVICE_NAME on macOS flipped one).
- supports_systemd_services tests: pin shutil.which('systemctl') and
is_container() so the test asserts the branch, not the host.
- copilot ACP real-HOME test: pin is_container() (auto mode prefers profile
home in containers) and scrub ambient HERMES_REAL_HOME/TERMINAL_HOME_MODE.
97 tests green on macOS dev box AND inside a docker CI runner container.

The disease: ~15 scattered raw yaml.safe_load(config.yaml) reads that
silently miss managed-scope overlay, ${ENV_VAR} expansion, profile-aware
pathing, and root-model normalization. Every new config feature needed an
N-site sweep (incident chain 9cbcc0c9c8 → 732293cf87 → b0e47a98f9 →
1928aa0443). This commit assigns every raw read to an owner and adds a
lint-guard test so the class cannot regrow.
New primitive (additive-only change to hermes_cli/config.py):
read_user_config_raw(path=None) — reads the user file EXACTLY as
written; docstring states it is ONLY legal for write-back round-trips
and raw-file diagnostics. Behavioral reads must use
load_config()/load_config_readonly().
BEHAVIOR FIXES (class-a sites migrated to a canonical loader — these
previously read values that could DIFFER from the effective config):
gateway/run.py _try_resolve_fallback_provider → _load_gateway_runtime_config
keys: fallback_providers/fallback_model (provider, model, base_url,
api_key). Drift fixed: a managed-pinned fallback chain was ignored;
an api_key of "${OPENROUTER_API_KEY}" reached the resolver unexpanded.
gateway/run.py GatewayRunner._load_provider_routing → same loader
key: provider_routing. Drift fixed: managed-pinned routing prefs and
${VAR} templates were ignored.
gateway/run.py GatewayRunner._load_fallback_model → same loader
keys: fallback chain. Same drift as above.
gateway/run.py GatewayRunner._refresh_fallback_model
keeps the raw primitive (its last-known-good-on-parse-failure contract
forbids the fail-open loader, which returns {} on a torn write) but now
applies managed overlay + env expansion inline. Drift fixed: chain
edits under managed scope / env templates were previously frozen out.
tui_gateway/server.py _load_cfg (72 behavioral call sites)
now = raw read + managed overlay (pre-existing) + NEW ${VAR} expansion,
split from a new _load_cfg_raw() write-back primitive. Drift fixed:
e.g. custom_prompt: "hello ${VAR}", agent.system_prompt, model,
api_key/base_url templates reached sessions unexpanded. DEFAULT_CONFIG
is deliberately NOT merged (callers treat missing keys as unset;
`_load_cfg() == {}` sentinels and _save_cfg round-trips depend on it).
tui_gateway/server.py _profile_configured_cwd
keys: terminal.cwd of a NON-launch profile. Drift fixed: managed
overlay + ${VAR} expansion now apply (load_config() would resolve the
wrong profile's home, so the raw primitive + inline pipeline is used).
plugins/platforms/telegram/adapter.py _reload_dm_topics_from_config
→ load_config_readonly(). keys: platforms.telegram.extra.dm_topics.
Drift fixed: managed overlay + profile-aware pathing + expansion.
plugins/memory/holographic _load_plugin_config → load_config_readonly().
keys: plugins.hermes-memory-store.*. Same drift class.
WRITE-BACK ROUND-TRIPS (class-b: stay raw BY DESIGN via read_user_config_raw;
merging defaults/overlay would pollute the saved user file):
gateway/slash_commands.py: model persist x2, _save_gateway_config_key,
memory/skills write_approval toggles
gateway/platforms/yuanbao.py auto-sethome
tui_gateway/server.py _write_config_key + all cfg→_save_cfg blocks
(reasoning show/hide/full/clamp, details_mode[.section], prompt)
→ new _load_cfg_raw()
plugins/memory/holographic save_config
RAW-FILE DIAGNOSTICS + presence-sensitive bridges (class-c: stay raw,
now via the shared primitive with an explanatory comment):
hermes_cli/doctor.py x5 (model validation, stale-root-keys, .env drift,
deprecation sweep, memory-provider probe — the latter two keep their
inline managed overlay where they had one)
gateway/run.py _bridge_max_turns_from_config and the module-level
TERMINAL_*/HERMES_* env bridge (bridging merged defaults would export
all of DEFAULT_CONFIG into the environment; both keep their inline
overlay + expansion)
hermes_cli/send_cmd.py env bridge (same presence-sensitivity)
hermes_cli/gateway.py multiplex-conflict probe (reads the DEFAULT root's
config, not the active profile's — load_config is the wrong owner)
hermes_cli/profiles.py / hermes_cli/web_server.py / tools/wake_word.py
multi-profile reads (load_config targets only the ACTIVE profile home)
cron/jobs.py _resolve_default_model_snapshot and cron/scheduler.py
run_job config read keep their existing inline overlay+expansion but
now share the primitive (their fail-open + last-value semantics and
the deliberate no-defaults merge are preserved exactly).
Failure-semantics audit: every migrated site preserves its exact previous
behavior on missing file ({} / early return) and parse failure (raise into
the caller's existing except, warn, last-known-good, or fail-open) —
read_user_config_raw intentionally mirrors bare open()+safe_load semantics
(raises on parse errors, {} only on FileNotFoundError/non-dict root).
Guard: tests/hermes_cli/test_config_read_guard.py scans the tree for
yaml.safe_load within 6 lines of a 'config.yaml' reference outside an
explicit ALLOWLIST (hermes_cli/config.py, gateway/config.py, gateway/run.py
fallback path, hermes_cli/managed_scope.py which reads the MANAGED file,
gateway/readiness.py parse-health probe) and fails on new offenders.
E2E: tests/hermes_cli/test_config_loader_e2e.py runs a subprocess with a
temp HERMES_HOME (config.yaml containing ${E2E_PROMPT_SUFFIX}) plus a
HERMES_MANAGED_DIR overlay pinning agent.reasoning_effort, asserting
tui _load_cfg resolves "hello world"/"high" while _load_cfg_raw +
_save_cfg round-trip the template and user value verbatim with no
managed/default leakage.
- extract _commit_registry/_note_refresh_failure shared by the background
worker and foreground stage-4 (identical 4-step success + failure paths
were duplicated); worker now commits under _models_dev_fetch_lock so a
failing background refresh can never re-arm the backoff immediately
after a successful force_refresh committed (unsynchronized-write race)
- add should_clear_context_pin_async to hermes_cli/route_identity.py
(matching the get_model_context_length_async precedent) and use it at
the 4 async gateway sites instead of inline asyncio.to_thread wraps;
the sync _format_session_info site keeps the sync call (already
off-loop via its callers' to_thread)
- test the background-refresh success path (the PR's primary new
behavior): disk saved, mem cache swapped, backoff cleared, in_flight
reset — mutation-checked
- replace the race-prone spin-wait on _models_dev_refresh_in_flight with
a named-thread join in the backoff test
list_recent_user_messages and the in-memory /retry + session.undo walkers
treated every role=user row as a real user turn. Timeline bookkeeping
(model_switch, async_delegation_complete, auto_continue, hidden) is stored
that way, so /undo soft-deleted from a marker and /retry re-sent opaque
bookkeeping text. Exclude display_kind the same way CLI resume counting and
the prompt.submit ordinal path do.
Widen the cherry-picked /diff base (#4839 by @SHL0MS) into one
cross-surface implementation, folding in the review feedback and the
best ideas from the two sibling PRs (#22703, #53527):
- tools/working_diff.py: shared git collection layer — unstaged
(default), staged, and all (vs HEAD) modes; untracked files folded in
via `git diff --no-index` so new files appear as additions (Codex
/diff parity); shlex-split arguments preserve quoted paths.
- CLI: handler moved to hermes_cli/cli_commands_mixin.py per the
current god-file decomposition (dispatch stays in cli.py), renders
through the rich console with a 400-line terminal-flood guard.
- Gateway: _handle_diff_command in gateway/slash_commands.py + dispatch
in gateway/run.py; fenced ```diff output truncated to 60 lines /
3000 chars before the platform senders apply their own per-platform
message clamps (tool-progress-style layered truncation). Localized
strings in all 17 locale catalogs.
- /diff session (from #53527): cumulative checkpoint-baseline diff of
everything Hermes changed, via new CheckpointManager.session_diff();
docstring records the retained-baseline approximation caveat from
review. Works on both surfaces; degrades with an actionable message
when checkpoints are off.
- Slack: /diff routed via /hermes diff (50-slash cap; keeps
telegram-parity test green and /version native).
- Registry: cross-surface CommandDef with staged|all|session
subcommands; docs: slash-commands reference (CLI + gateway tables +
both-surfaces list) and hermes-agent skill reference.
- Tests: tests/tools/test_working_diff.py (real git repos),
tests/hermes_cli/test_diff_command.py (real git + stubbed checkpoint
manager), tests/gateway/test_diff_command.py (end-to-end handler,
real checkpoint store), TestSessionDiff in
tests/tools/test_checkpoint_manager.py.

Extends the cherry-picked /context command (PR #52184) and prompt-size
attribution helpers (PR #66656) into one visual context view across
surfaces, and absorbs the per-component budget-visibility goal of the
/tokens proposal (PR #48470):
- agent/context_breakdown.py: pure renderers over the existing payload —
a 5x20 glyph block grid (1 cell ~= 1% of the model window), an
'Estimated usage by category' table with free space, and expanded
per-skill / per-toolset listings via compute_context_details(), which
reuses the prompt-size attribution mechanism (skills index-line bytes +
registry tool->toolset map) converted to the same chars/4 heuristic.
- cli.py: /context [all] renders grid + category table (+ expanded
listings) from the live agent and in-memory conversation history.
- gateway/slash_commands.py: /context appends the plain-text category
table (no grid — monospace not guaranteed on messaging platforms);
/context all adds the expanded listings. Fail-open: breakdown errors
never break the gauge.
- hermes_cli/commands.py: /context gains the 'all' subcommand; /version
demoted to /hermes version on Slack to keep the 50-slash cap.
- tests: renderer unit tests against synthetic payloads, registry test,
gateway /context + /context all + failure-degradation handler tests.
- docs: slash-commands reference + CLI guide entries.
Read-only and locally computed: no provider calls, no prompt-cache impact.

A dedicated /context (alias /ctx) gateway slash command that gives a full
context-window view with:
- Usage gauge: visual bar + fraction + percentage + headroom
- Auto-compression threshold and how far away it is
- Compression count and how much the last one freed
- Cumulative session throughput (explicitly labelled as throughput,
NOT context size — each call re-sends the window)
- Cascading fallback: running agent → cached agent → SessionStore metadata
→ rough transcript estimate
Not included (per current-main design):
- Cache reporting removed: commit 446b8e239 intentionally removed cache
reporting from user-facing surfaces because providers that omit cached-token
details produce misleading values
- Sync DB calls replaced with async_session_store (current main requires
AsyncSessionStore with await)
Also rewords the /status tokens line from 'Cumulative API tokens (re-sent
each call)' to 'Lifetime tokens billed: ... (not your current context size;
use /context)' to reduce the recurring confusion that the cumulative figure
is the current context window.
Fixes salvation of PR #52184 (salvage commit replaces a 12K-commit-behind
fork branch with a fresh implementation against current main, incorporating
reviewer feedback from @whoislikemiha and the hermes-sweeper).
Completes #51690 on top of the salvaged #60378 timeout metadata:
- async_delegation: terminal 'stalled' events now carry structured
stall context (stalled_after_quiet_seconds, stall_threshold_seconds,
stall_phase idle|in_tool, stall_grace_seconds) on both single and
batch paths, persisted in the durable row so restart-restored events
keep it. Mirrors the sync path's timeout_seconds/timed_out_after_
seconds/timeout_phase from #60378.
- list_async_delegations(): exposes seconds_since_progress and live
children_activity (per-child api_calls, current_tool,
seconds_since_activity) sampled from the dispatch's progress_fn
outside the records lock; private monitor bookkeeping and callables
never leak.
- /agents (CLI + gateway): background delegations render per-child
activity rows, quiet-time hints, and the stalling state; gateway
section is new (previously async delegations were invisible there).
New locale key gateway.agents.background_delegations in all 17
catalogs.
Tests: stall-metadata event shape, live-listing projection, gateway
/agents rendering (real registry dispatch, sabotage-verified), sync
timeout metadata fields, non-timeout None contract.
The bare truthiness test on _compression_skipped_due_to_lock is fooled
by MagicMock auto-attributes on test-double agents (skill pitfall:
MagicMock defeats hasattr/truthiness duck-typing) — the type-ahead CLI
test's MagicMock agent took the lock-skip branch and skipped the
transcript commit. Real values are None/True/holder-string; pin the
check to 'is True or isinstance(str)' at all three consumer sites.
Follow-up to the salvaged #57634 commits:
- agent/manual_compression_feedback.py: new describe_compression_lock_skip()
— single source of truth for lock-skip wording. A descriptive holder
string means another compressor CONFIRMED holds the lock ('already in
progress (holder: ...)'); True/None means acquisition failed without a
confirmed holder (hermes_state.try_acquire_compression_lock catches
sqlite3.Error internally and returns False), so the message says
'could not acquire ... the lock check failed' instead of falsely
claiming a concurrent compression is running.
- cli.py, gateway/slash_commands.py, tui_gateway/server.py (all three
in-process consumers: session.compress RPC, command.dispatch compress
branch, slash.exec mirror) now route through the shared helper.
- tui_gateway/server.py command.dispatch compress branch: catch
CompressionLockHeld explicitly — it previously fell into the generic
'compress failed' error handler.
- Deferred-notify contract (#69324): lock-skip discards the pending
context-engine notification (committed=False) in _compress_session_history
and the CLI path before returning.
- tests: lock-skip wording pins per surface, VISIBLE_COMPRESSION_MESSAGES
noise-filter carve-outs for both wordings, MagicMock signal opt-outs for
sibling tests added on main after the original PR.
Advisor review found a critical stale-signal leak: if auto-compress
sets _compression_skipped_due_to_lock during a lock-skip, a subsequent
successful manual /compress will see the stale signal, falsely report
'Compression already in progress', and discard the compression results.
Fix:
- compress_context clears _compression_skipped_due_to_lock = None at
entry so each call's outcome alone determines the signal.
- Unified gateway 'holder: unknown' drift to match CLI/TUI pattern
(omit holder clause when not a descriptive string).
- Added MagicMock opt-outs in 3 sibling test files broken by the new
signal check (test_compress_here, test_compress_focus,
test_compress_plugin_engine).
- Added stale-signal-leak invariant test proving the fix.
Salvage follow-up for PR #68899:
- Restore .rstrip('/') on base_url in _swap_credential (both anthropic
and OpenAI paths) to match every other assignment site. The route
identity comparison still uses normalize_route_base_url which handles
trailing slash correctly.
- Extract should_clear_context_pin() into hermes_cli/route_identity.py,
consolidating 7 copy-pasted call sites across cli.py, gateway/run.py,
gateway/slash_commands.py, and hermes_cli/model_switch.py into a
single fail-closed helper.
C1 (anthropic path TLS re-application): pre-existing gap — the Anthropic
adapter (build_anthropic_client) has no TLS customization support at
all, so this is out of scope for this salvage.
* fix(billing): rename user-facing "terminal billing" copy to Remote Spending
The capability was renamed Remote Spending on the portal (consent CTA:
"Allow Remote Spending"; per-terminal states Granted/Stopped), but the
terminal, desktop, and docs still said "terminal billing" everywhere.
- Feature name: Remote Spending in titles/labels, lowercase mid-sentence.
- Step-up action verb is now "allow", matching the portal consent CTA.
- Kill-switch-off recovery copy points at the actual control ("a billing
admin can turn it on from the portal's Hermes Agent page") instead of
the dead-end "manage it on the portal".
- Per-terminal revoke copy uses the portal vocabulary ("stopped").
- Wire identifiers (cli_billing_enabled, cli_billing_disabled, ...) are
unchanged; copy, comments, docs, and test expectations only.
* fix(billing): correct the post-step-up denial diagnosis + finish the desktop rename
Adversarial review findings: (1) a repeated insufficient_scope after a
successful step-up is a per-terminal authorization failure, but the copy
blamed the org kill-switch and pointed at the wrong recovery control —
now: "Remote Spending still isn't active for this terminal — the
authorization didn't take. Retry, or make this change on the portal."
(2) the desktop step-up flow started in Remote Spending vocabulary but
finished in "billing management access" — renamed both end states.
(3) prettier formatting on the touched files (matches the post-merge
fmt bot).
