Live sessions hold one transport; a pop-out window's session.resume
rebinds it, and on pop-out close the disconnect path parked the session
on the drop sentinel — the original window never received stream events
again until a manual re-resume (#83716).
Sessions now track every transport that has shown them (viewers, stamped
in _live_session_payload). _close_sessions_for_transport re-binds to the
most recent surviving viewer instead of detaching when one exists; dead
viewers are filtered; the drop sentinel + grace reap remain the path for
the last viewer. Root cause and repro by CharlesR-sudo on #83716.
After the existing reconnect grace, route a still-detached running session through the same interrupt mechanism as session.interrupt. Preserve delegation deferral, sidecar teardown, partial history, and single-owner reap semantics.
Verified on upstream main: RED 4 failed/2 passed without production changes; GREEN 603 related gateway/compute-host tests. Ruff and py_compile passed. Momus pass 2: APPROVE.
The grace timer treated mid-turn detached sessions as not-orphaned and
returned without arming another timer. Eviction paths also skip
running sessions, so the in-memory agent leaked until process restart.
Fixes#85578
/review takes the last 10 chat messages plus optional instructions,
spawns a full-privilege background subagent (the async delegation
rail) that investigates the referenced work (PR, code, docs), and its
complete review re-enters the spawning session as a normal
async-delegation completion the primary agent can act on.
- agent/review_engine.py: shared engine (snapshot, briefing,
auxiliary.review credential resolution, dispatch, note formatting)
- tools/delegate_tool.py: internal credentials_cfg per-call override
(never model-facing) resolved through the same credential system as
delegation.provider pins
- auxiliary.review config block (provider/model/base_url/api_key/
api_mode); provider auto + empty model = inherit the main model
- Surfaces: CLI process_command, gateway run.py dispatch +
slash_commands handler (binds the approval session key so the
completion routes back), TUI/Desktop live dispatch in
tui_gateway/server.py, CommandDef registry (+Slack /hermes-only cap)
- Docs: delegation.md section + slash-commands.md (both tables)
- Tests: 15 engine tests (sabotage-verified: credentials_cfg and
dispatch tests fail without the fix), 4 gateway handler tests
through the real async rail
Widens the cherry-picked reasoning-callback fix to the whole leak class
(#93220):
- quiet branch also neutralizes tool_progress_callback,
tool_start_callback, tool_complete_callback (inline diff rendering via
render_edit_diff_with_delta was gated by NEITHER quiet_mode nor
tool_progress_mode) and syncs agent.tool_progress_mode='off'.
- _should_emit_quiet_tool_messages() returns False under
suppress_status_output: with callbacks neutralized, the quiet-mode
KawaiiSpinner fallback printed '[tool]'/'[done]' lines into captured
stdout. Also covers oneshot.py and background-review forks, which set
the same flag and expect strict silence.
E2E (isolated HERMES_HOME, live model, write_file turn): base leaks
'┊ review diff' + full SVG source into stdout; head emits exactly the
final response. Regression tests pin the quiet-branch statements and the
gate (sabotage-verified).

Follow-up on top of the salvaged cluster: sanitize_api_messages step 3
(duplicate tool_call_id dedup) still tracked only the coalesced
(call_id||id) value in outstanding_call_ids, so after step 2's
variant-aware matching preserved a result keyed on the OTHER id variant,
step 3 deleted it as answering no outstanding call — whole parallel
batches of real results vanished with no stub at all (#93251's total-loss
mode). Track the full variant set per call and consume all siblings when
answered, preserving #58327 duplicate protection and llama.cpp
constant-id re-arm semantics.
Also aligns the #58287 compressor test with the in-flight tool chain
protection (#79278) that landed after that PR was opened: a trailing
user turn keeps the negative-control assistant message out of the
protected trailing window.
New regression tests: divergent-id batch survival through the dedup
pass, sibling-id replay still dropped, constant-id re-arm preserved.
Sabotage-verified: tests fail with the old single-id tracking.
The tool_call id-matching pass in repair_message_sequence only read
`.get("id"/"call_id")` on plain dicts, skipping non-dict tool_calls
entirely (`if not isinstance(tc, dict): continue`). Host-fed and
pre-serialization histories can carry unserialized SDK tool_call
objects (e.g. `ChatCompletionMessageToolCall`) instead of dicts, which
left `known_tool_ids` empty for that assistant turn. The following
`tool` message — a legitimate result already produced by executing the
tool — was then misclassified as an orphan and silently dropped,
corrupting the persisted conversation history and leaving the
assistant's tool_calls unanswered (itself a trigger for HTTP 400 on
strict providers).
Fix: extract id/call_id via getattr() for non-dict entries too,
mirroring AIAgent._get_tool_call_id_static's existing dict-or-object
tolerance, instead of skipping them.
`repair_message_sequence` registers BOTH `id` and `call_id` for each
assistant tool_call, because a matching tool result may be keyed on either
depending on which path built it (#58168). The duplicate guard added for
dropped rather than replayed.
Those two behaviours don't compose: a Codex/Responses tool_call registers
two DIFFERENT ids (`fc_...` and `call_...`), but only the id the first
result referenced is discarded. Its sibling stays in `known_tool_ids`, so a
duplicate result keyed on that sibling still matches and is kept — two tool
messages replayed for one call, which is exactly the HTTP 400 on strict
providers the consume step exists to prevent.
Duplicates of this kind come from the retry / crash / session-resume glitch
the guard was written for; the id-variant split just lets them slip past it.
Track each registered id back to its tool_call's full variant set and
discard all of them on a match. Results keyed on either variant are still
accepted (no false orphaning), and two parallel Codex calls answered via
different variants both survive.
Adds regression tests for the sibling-keyed duplicate and for the
two-calls/mixed-keys case that must NOT be affected.
_sanitize_tool_pairs() matched tool_call/tool_result pairs using a
single-value call_id||id precedence per tool_call (_get_tool_call_id).
In the Codex Responses API format an assistant tool_call carries both a
distinct id (fc_...) and call_id (call_...); a tool result's
tool_call_id may be keyed on either depending on which code path built
it. Whenever a genuinely matching pair used the field the precedence
didn't pick, the sanitizer misclassified it as orphaned on BOTH sides:
it dropped the valid tool result AND stripped the tool_call from the
assistant message, even though neither was orphaned.
Live-verified before the fix: {"id": "fc_777", "call_id": "call_777"}
+ a tool result with tool_call_id="fc_777" (a valid pair) was fully
removed by current main.
Register both id and call_id as valid match keys via a new
_tool_call_id_variants() helper (a set per tool_call, not a single
value), matching #58168's fix for repair_message_sequence's known-id
set today. A tool_call now survives if ANY of its id variants has a
matching result, which is not vulnerable to precedence order at all
(unlike swapping which field is checked first, which only trades which
sub-case is broken).
Note on #56425 (open, unreviewed): that PR touches this same function
for the same underlying issue (#55626) by swapping the call_id||id
precedence to id||call_id. That fixes the specific case where a result
matches `id` but not the reverse case (a result matching `call_id`
while `id` is also present) -- the precedence-swap approach cannot fix
the class, only relocate which sub-case is broken. This fix instead
mirrors the already-merged #58168 pattern (register the superset of
both ids as valid matches), which has no such blind spot. Adds 2
regression tests: the previously-mismatched case, and a negative
control confirming genuine orphans are still stripped alongside a
valid dual-id pair in the same window.
Register every id variant (call_id AND id) of each assistant tool_call in
sanitize_api_messages so a tool result keyed on either variant is treated
as paired. Previously only the coalesced (call_id||id) value was
registered, so Responses-style tool_calls carrying divergent id (fc_...)
and call_id (call_...) had their real results dropped as orphans and
replaced with '[Result unavailable]' stubs.
Cherry-picked from PR #56148 (unrelated busy_ack_templates files dropped
per the author's own follow-up commit).
The hard block matched raw command text, but a shell resolves quote
splicing (`kick"start"`) and backslash escaping (`kick\start`) into the
literal verb before execution. So `launchctl kick"start" -k
gui/501/ai.hermes.gateway` ran exactly as the blocked `kickstart` form
while both the non-bypassable block and the approval detector missed it —
leaving an approval-bypassing gateway self-lifecycle operation reachable.
contains_gateway_lifecycle_command now runs a second pass over
shlex-tokenized command segments, where quotes and escapes are already
resolved. It stays anchored on a hermes-gateway identifier, so prose and
non-gateway hermes services are unaffected. Because this function is the
single choke point _contains_unsafe_gateway_action calls at every
recursion level, referenced-script and `sh -c` payload scanning inherit
the fix.
tools/approval.py had the same gap for quote splices: backslash escapes
are stripped by _normalize_command_for_detection, but quote splicing in an
ARGUMENT position is not touched by _deobfuscate_shell_word_for_detection
(scoped to command-position words, deliberately — widening it would let
quoted prose match the destructive patterns). It now delegates to the
fixed guard as a last check, so an ordinary pattern match still wins and
keeps its more specific reason string.
Tests: quoted, single-quoted and backslash-spliced verbs across the
launchctl/systemctl/hermes branches, the spliced gateway identifier
itself, a splice nested in an `sh -c` payload (resolves one level deeper,
asserted at the recursive entry point terminal_tool actually calls), plus
negative cases proving prose and non-gateway labels stay unblocked.
Verified on Windows: no regressions — the 10 remaining failures across
tests/tools/test_approval.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_gateway_restart_loop.py
and tests/cron are identical on the unmodified baseline (POSIX file modes,
symlink privileges, and /bin/bash script paths).

Branch B of _GATEWAY_LIFECYCLE_PATTERN enumerated launchd verbs but omitted
`bootout` - the modern replacement for the `unload` it already listed, and
the paired inverse of the `bootstrap` it already listed. `remove` (legacy
sibling of bootout) and `disable` (what makes an unload durable) were
missing for the same reason.
This matters because the two enforcement layers are not interchangeable. In
tools/terminal_tool.py under _HERMES_GATEWAY == "1":
- the cron.lifecycle_guard hard block is documented as applying
unconditionally ("force=True cannot help here")
- detect_dangerous_command below it is explicitly skipped when force=True
detect_dangerous_command already flags all three verbs, so the default path
was covered - but with force=True inside the gateway they reached execution
while stop/unload/kickstart did not. SIGTERM then propagates to the child
before the command completes and the service may never come back, which is
the state described in #74973.
The label anchor (\bhermes[.\-]?gateway) is unchanged, so unrelated services
such as `launchctl bootout gui/501/ai.hermes.update-checker` stay runnable.
Adds TestLifecycleGuardLaunchctlParity, which pins the one-directional
invariant: anything the bypassable approval layer flags, the unbypassable
hard block must also catch. Deliberately not equality - the hard block is
legitimately stricter (it also covers load/restart, which the approval layer
leaves alone). Verified failing on the parent commit for exactly bootout,
remove and disable.
Closes#80260

Prose false positives (Branch A trailing boundary, Branch D leading
boundary), quoted-multiline data payloads, and the fail-closed
unbalanced-quote fallback.
Follow-up to @BrunoBza's #93062:
1. Set failed=True only for the new repeated_outer_errors exit reason.
Previously the error exit left failed=False, so finalize_turn reported
completed=True for a turn that actually failed — incorrect.
2. Don't append_message the assistant response at the break. A thinking-
prefill or interim assistant may already be the tail, and appending
would create assistant→assistant role-alternation violation.
finalize_turn (lines 341-353) handles this safely by checking
_tail_role != 'assistant' before appending.
3. Update test to assert failed=True and completed=False for the
repeated_outer_errors exit.
The outer conversation-loop except handler only left the loop on a
local-processing error or when api_call_count >= max_iterations - 1.
With the turn budget now unlimited by default (sys.maxsize), a
permanent failure that escaped the inner retry/fallback machinery
retried forever: ~64 retries/s, one core pegged, and the rotated
agent.log history overwritten within minutes.
Bound the loop with a small per-turn cap on total escaping exceptions
(_MAX_OUTER_LOOP_ERRORS = 8, scaled down by a tiny explicit
max_iterations so a manually bounded budget still governs). The legacy
local-processing and near-limit exits are byte-identical; a new
'repeated_outer_errors' exit reason gets a user-facing explanation.
The inner retry/fallback layer owns transient API recovery and
terminates on its own, so only exceptions that escape it reach this
cap - a successful turn is unaffected.
Fixes#92450
When the TUI exits while the post-turn background review fork is still
mid-request, every further API attempt raises 'cannot schedule new
futures after interpreter shutdown'. The conversation loop treated this
as a retryable API error: un-gated ❌ prints leaked onto the user's
shell AFTER the TUI exited (call #4, #5, #6...) and the loop retried a
doomed request until the interpreter froze the thread.
Fix the class, not the site:
- tools/interpreter_shutdown.py: single shared shutdown predicate
(matches both CPython message variants + sys.is_finalizing()).
- cron/scheduler.py, agent/tool_executor.py: existing per-site
predicates now delegate to the shared home (tool_executor previously
matched only the fuller variant).
- agent/conversation_loop.py: inner retry handler recognizes the
shutdown signal and abandons the turn — one log warning, no print,
no traceback, no debug dump, no retry; outer handler gets the same
guard for shutdown errors raised outside the API call.
- The outer handler's bare print() now honors suppress_status_output
(set by the background-review fork) instead of bypassing it.
Refs #55924#58720 (same class in cron delivery), adjacent to #90683.
Test-helper + regression test from PR #92633 by @DavidMetcalfe:
mock _is_supervised_gateway_process instead of setting the raw env
var, and add a test proving a CLI agent session with inherited
_HERMES_GATEWAY=1 but no PID ownership is no longer blocked.
Follow-up to the #91701 salvage: persistent registrations survive a routine
unload-all, but must not outlive their plugin.
- Targeted unload (plugin disable/uninstall) now gathers persistent rows
from the ownership ledger and disposes them.
- Unload-all parks live persistent handles in _persistent_carryover;
discover_and_load(force=True) evicts the ones whose plugin did not
re-register the same (kind, key) — superseded handles are dropped
without disposal so a same-object re-registration stays live.
The dashboard auth registry is process-global, but a bundled auth provider
was registered under the per-home plugin manager's scope and enrolled in that
manager's reverse-order teardown. A per-home manager is unloaded routinely
(profile-scoped dashboard activity, forced re-discovery), and that teardown
disposed the registration — emptying the auth registry for the whole process
and permanently disabling sign-in until restart.
Register dashboard-auth providers in the process-global slot as persistent
host-owned registrations kept out of per-home manager teardown, so a routine
unload can no longer disable authentication process-wide. Registration upserts,
so a forced re-discovery (e.g. a password change) still rotates the provider in
place. The test-only manager reset now clears the auth registry too, since
persistent registrations deliberately survive unload.
Fixes#91701
The protected agent-instruction gate grants one operation and persists
nothing, but only the TUI/desktop and Runs transports were taught that.
The prompt_toolkit panel, the input() fallback, and the ACP editor menu
still rendered "Allow for session", so a user editing SOUL.md tapped it,
got re-prompted on the next write, and read the gate as broken.
Thread allow_session through prompt_dangerous_approval so a caller that
re-asks every time collapses every surface to once/deny, and cover the
producer-to-transport contract end to end.
When the Python interpreter begins teardown (user closes hermes, SIGTERM,
OOM-kill), every executor-backed operation raises 'cannot schedule new
futures after interpreter shutdown'. The outer except handler in
run_conversation caught this error but did not recognize it as fatal —
it kept retrying (API calls #4, #5, #6) until max_iterations, each time
hitting the same dead executor and printing another traceback.
The fix adds an early check: if sys.is_finalizing() or the error matches
the 'cannot schedule new futures' pattern, break immediately with a clean
interpreter_shutdown exit reason instead of retrying. The codebase already
had this pattern in cron/scheduler.py and agent/tool_executor.py — the
conversation loop just wasn't using it.
- Clear the accidental end stamp on resurrection (at the lineage tip):
a surviving ws_orphan_reap/agent_close reason made a LATER deliberate
archive auto-resurrect on the next lookup — the user could never retire
the canonical chat. Test pins the resurrect -> deliberate-archive ->
stays-archived cycle.
- Judge recoverability at the compression TIP: the registry row of a
compressed lineage carries end_reason='compression', so tip-stamped
accidents were unrecoverable through the registry row. Lineage test.
- Heal the third lookup: the api_server exact-title listing (hermes peer
dm resolution) filtered archived rows out via list_sessions_rich and
still failed for reap-archived canonical chats.
- Single source of truth for the recoverable set: tuple moved to
hermes_state_common (mirroring _RESET_END_REASONS_SQL) and interpolated
into all three recovery SQL sites — literals cannot drift.
- methods_session gate uses BOT_CHAT_TITLE (not a literal) and re-fetches
by id after resurrection (title has no DB-level UNIQUE).
- Idempotence pinned: two consecutive profiles.list calls both resolve.
- Drop the false fairness claim from acquire_turn_lock's docstring (LOCK_NB
probe + sleep retry gives no arrival-order guarantee; only the budget is).
- logger.debug once when the lock degrades to a no-op on fcntl-less
platforms so silent serialization loss stays diagnosable.
- Document the real worst-case deliver handler hold (120s lock wait + 600s
turn = ~720s) where clients tune their timeouts against it.
- Pin non-reentry: local_delivery_command must stay a raw 'hermes -p' argv —
wrapping it in --run-delivery would make the child contend with its
parent's own flock and fail every relay delivery with target_busy.
- De-flake: the cross-profile test's upper-bound wall-time assert tolerates
loaded CI runners; the wait-duration message assert matches ~Ns generally.
Two CI failures: (1) the target_busy test's global subprocess.run patch
recorded unrelated gateway-init git calls (rev-parse/ls-remote) as the
delivery spawn — now local_delivery_command is monkeypatched to a
sentinel argv so only the real delivery path counts; (2) the new
bot_mode config section is single-field, tripping the dashboard
no-single-field-categories rule — folded into the agent tab via
_CATEGORY_MERGE (same as #93102's fix).
Final-diff pass: pin both envelope mtimes via os.utime relative to the
watermark (write_text alone is wall-clock/FS dependent), and reset
relayDrainRerun in stopBotRelay so a rerun remembered mid-drain can't
leak one stale drain into the next start/stop cycle.
Review follow-ups:
- A push signal landing while drainRelayOutboxes is mid-flight hit the
relayDrainBusy early-return and was gone forever — the gateway signature
is monotone (one event per new envelope, never re-broadcast), so the
envelope waited out the full 4s poll, exactly the latency the push path
removes. relayDrainRerun remembers the race and schedules one debounced
follow-up pass after the drain finishes.
- test_new_envelope_after_drain_fires_pending_again pins the untested half
of the monotone contract: the watermark must not eat genuinely NEW
envelopes (write -> drain -> write-newer fires twice). Mutation-checked:
a stale-signature regression fails it while the other three still pass.
Cross-connection DMs were pure polling: the Desktop drains every gateway's
bot_relay outbox on a 4s interval, so each hop eats up to 4s outbound plus
4s for the reply leg (#92760 'bots reply slowly').
Emission point: the gateway's existing change watcher (_CHANGE_WATCHES in
tui_gateway/server.py). Envelopes are written by the AGENT process
(message_agent -> tools.bot_relay.enqueue_envelope), not the gateway, so no
gateway RPC is on the enqueue path and an in-process emit is impossible.
That is exactly the situation the change watcher already solves for the
pairing store (pairing.changed: 'written by a different process; the files
are the only shared signal') - so a new bot_relay.outbox.pending entry in
the existing watch table is the smallest correct diff: one cheap 1s-interval
stat probe folded into the existing 0.5s watcher tick, no new thread, no new
RPC, and _broadcast_global_event fans it to every connected WS client for
free. The signature is monotone (newest envelope mtime ever seen) so a
drain emptying outbox/ never re-fires the event.
Desktop (hermes-bots plugin): subscribe via the existing host.onEvent tap
(feature-detected - older shells lack it) and run drainRelayOutboxes through
a 250ms trailing debounce so a burst of signals collapses to one drain.
The 4s interval poll is intentionally UNCHANGED as the backstop: the event
tap only hears the active gateway socket, so per-connection push detection
would be complex and wrong to trade the poll against - push simply makes
the common case near-instant while older backends keep working exactly as
before.
Tests: 3 new watcher contracts (fires on enqueue, monotone across drain,
silent with no outbox) and a new relay-push-drain.test.mjs (debounce burst
-> one drain, re-arm after window, disposed no-op, poll backstop intact).
Review follow-up: bare \b401\b / \b402\b / \b429\b / \b5xx\b matched any
3-digit token in error text ('line 502', 'took 429 ms'), and server_error
misfires feed AUTO_RETRYABLE — a supervisor could auto-retry a permanent
local failure. Numeric rules now require an 'error code:'/'status:'/'http'
prefix; phrase alternatives (rate limit, server error, overloaded, out of
funds) unchanged. Adds parametrize rows for the false-positive guards and
the previously untested branches (bare 'status: 401', 'upstream server
error', 'model_not_found').
The shared checkout serves every profile, but hermes update migrated
only the active profile's config.yaml. Siblings kept their old
_config_version until their (correctly restarted, post-#91378) gateway
hit a config shape the new code couldn't read — the last unabsorbed
substance from the Phase-2 restart-swarm audit (#20438 earliest, 2026
field repro on #79048: sibling at v33 vs v37).
_migrate_sibling_profile_configs(): per sibling home, scope config
reads/writes via the context-local HERMES_HOME override (ContextVar —
never os.environ), check version, run the NON-INTERACTIVE safe
migration; prompt-requiring settings stay for the profile's own next
interactive session (same contract as gateway-mode). Broken profiles
are skipped without blocking the sweep; override always reset.
Sabotage-verified; live E2E in a fresh process with real drifted
config files: v12→v38 and v25→v38 on disk, provider preserved, the
documented #81946 personality-reset migration correctly applied to
siblings too, never-configured profile untouched, active home
untouched, second run idempotent.
session.create intentionally persists no state.db row until the first
prompt, but session.resume only looked in the database — so resuming a
live lazy session by its stored key or pending title hard-404'd. Bot
Mode hits this on every fresh non-default bot: the canonical Bot Chat
is created lazily on the profile, the open/send resumes it, and the
user gets 'session not found' on their first message to that bot.
session.resume now falls back to the in-memory session registry,
matching by stored key or pending title scoped to the SAME profile
home. Cross-profile lookups still fail closed; unknown ids still 404.
The policy table was observational: restart_via was a display string and
the four platform restart branches re-discovered their own targets, so a
runtime the plan saw could be missed with zero signal (the #88654 class,
structurally).
- update_inventory: restart_via becomes a machine-readable mechanism id
(systemd|launchd|desktop|manual) — THE policy table as data; display
derived via describe_restart_mechanism. match_runtime_outcomes()
reconciles every planned runtime against the restart phase's
bookkeeping (restarted/stopped/failed/unaccounted);
report_unaccounted_runtimes() is the silent-miss tripwire.
- update_cmd: after the restart phase, the plan is reconciled; outcomes
land in the receipt (runtime_outcomes); any unaccounted runtime
escalates exactly like a STALE/DOWN fleet row (exit 1).
Sabotage-verified (reconciliation forced to 'restarted' fails the
tripwire tests); live E2E on this host's real fleet: the real
systemd-supervised gateway classified with a machine id, reported
unaccounted when the bookkeeping omits it, clean when accounted.
On macOS, `hermes update` printed "Update complete!" and exited 0 while the
ai.hermes.gateway LaunchAgent sat deregistered for 36 minutes (#88848).
_restart_macos_launchd_gateways already disagrees with itself about what
"restarted" means. Sibling profiles are only appended to restarted_services
once _wait_for_launchd_service_pid confirms launchd is running the job on a
fresh pid. The invoking profile was appended on "launchd_restart() did not
raise" alone.
That is a weaker claim than it looks. launchd_restart() returns as soon as the
restart has been REQUESTED: the _request_gateway_self_restart branch hands the
work to the running gateway and returns immediately, and a plist reload is
handed to a detached helper. Both are asynchronous, so a helper that dies
before its first bootstrap, or a `launchctl bootstrap` that exits 0 without
registering (measured by the reporter on macOS 26.6.1), were both invisible to
the caller. The systemd branch of the same phase has never drawn that
inference: it polls _wait_for_service_active before recording the unit.
Verification is domain-agnostic via a new
gateway.wait_for_launchd_gateway_supervision, NOT _wait_for_launchd_service_pid.
The sibling helper needs an explicit domain, and the invoking profile's gate
deliberately avoids a domain locate because it fails on macOS-26 hosts whose
per-user domains reject service management even though launchd_restart() owns
that fallback. The new helper judges by a live supervised pid rather than an
exit code (the predicate _launchctl_label_supervising_process already existed;
this only adds the wait), and returns True immediately when the detached
fallback marker is present, because a gateway running unsupervised there is the
designed state and not the silent failure this guards against.
A label that restarts but is never supervised now lands in
failed_or_stale_units, which sets gateway_fleet_restart_incomplete and makes
the update exit non-zero instead of reporting success over a gateway that is
down.
Tests: 12 in tests/hermes_cli/test_update_launchd_restart_verification.py, with
no platform gate, driving the real _restart_macos_launchd_gateways through
mocked launchctl outcomes. Reverting the verification to an unconditional
append fails 2 of them, including the #88848 regression case.
tests/hermes_cli/test_update_launchd_fleet_restart.py::_fleet stubs the new
verifier so its 27 existing cases keep asserting on routing rather than on a
real launchctl probe; unstubbed, each case would poll the full supervision
budget.
Fixes#88654.
After an in-place update, the manual-gateway leg of the restart phase did
this for every profile-mapped gateway:
restart_mode = _prepare_profile_gateway_update_restart(proc.profile, pid)
if restart_mode is None:
continue
A None means no relaunch could be armed. The bare continue skipped the
drain and the stop, and the unmapped sweep immediately below skips any
pid already in profile_processes, so the process was never killed and
never counted into the "Stopped N manual gateway process(es)" summary.
The gateway kept running with its pre-update modules resident while the
new code sat on disk, and every lazy import from that point mixed
versions:
cannot import name '_MAX_TOOL_ERROR_CHARS' from 'tools.registry'
with no operator signal of any kind.
Two changes.
_prepare_profile_gateway_update_restart now falls back to replaying the
process's own captured command line when the profile-derived relaunch
cannot be armed. launch_detached_gateway_restart_by_cmdline already
exists for exactly this case and documents itself as the companion for
gateways with no profile mapping; the Windows post-update path already
uses it the same way. The argv is captured a few lines earlier for the
external-supervisor check, so the fallback costs nothing extra. The
external-supervisor branch still short-circuits first, because replaying
argv there would escape the manager and race its replacement process.
When neither mechanism can arm a relaunch, the update path no longer
falls through silently. It says so, naming the profile and pid, and hands
the process to the existing unmapped sweep so it is stopped and reported
through the established "Restart manually: hermes gateway run" contract.
Leaving it running was the actual harm: a gateway on stale modules fails
every lazy import for as long as it lives.
