The Sep 2026 decomposition (PR #102117) makes internal import paths a non-API: names now live in
the focused modules that define them. This commit is the ONLY thing keeping the old paths alive,
so external plugins have time to update. It is deliberately a single, unsquashed commit:
git revert <this sha>
removes every shim, stub and manifest at once on the announced date. Nothing in-tree may depend on
these pointers: scripts/check_compat_pointers.py (wired into lint.yml) fails CI if it does.
What it adds (see COMPAT_MANIFEST.md, compat_manifest.json):
- 332 facade modules get one delimited `PLUGIN-COMPAT` block appended at the end of the file
- 1,172 moved names resolved lazily via a module `__getattr__` (PEP 562) — never a top-level import,
so no import cycles; facades that already had `__getattr__` get a chained one
- 592 third-party/stdlib names the old modules used to expose, with their original import statements
- 266 public definitions that had been deleted as unused, restored byte-for-byte from the pre-decomposition
tree (+40 private helpers and 16 imports pulled in only because a restored definition needs them)
- 3 deleted modules recreated as re-export stubs (gateway/startup_watchdog, hermes_cli/observability/
relay_runtime, tools/environments/modal_utils)
- private names (`_x`) get no pointer: they were never API (3,792 skipped)
Verified: all 335 touched modules import under a fresh HERMES_HOME and every manifest name resolves;
the lint reports zero in-tree uses; ruff clean; targeted suites unchanged.
tools/managed_tool_gateway._read_nous_provider_state read auth.json with a
bare read_text(), which on Windows decodes as cp1252 and raises on any
non-ASCII byte (e.g. an accented Nous provider label). The broad except
swallowed it and returned None, so the gateway treated Nous as
unconfigured — the same Windows UTF-8 hazard the other auth.json readers
in this PR already fix.
Add encoding="utf-8-sig" (consistent with the sibling readers) plus a
non-ASCII regression test reusing the windows_default_encoding fixture.
This covers the one auth.json reader in #66782 not already handled here
(tools/managed_tool_gateway.py:40); the other two readers #66782 touches
(agent/auxiliary_client.py, tools/xai_http.py) are already fixed in this
PR. RED-verified.
AST-driven pass over every Path.read_text()/write_text() without an
explicit encoding= across non-test code: 71 sites in 34 files
(skills_hub, hermes_cli/main+profiles+service_manager+container_boot,
mem0/hindsight/honcho plugins, achievements dashboard, release/CI
scripts, productivity+comfyui skill helpers, agent/*). Verified zero
positional-encoding collisions before insertion; per-file compile()
check after.
Adds a check-windows-footguns rule flagging bare single-line
read_text/write_text (multi-line forms stay covered by the AST guard
test from #38985). Together with the salvaged contributor commits this
retires the ~169-site bare file-I/O class (#37423's long tail).
- Add logger + debug log to read_nous_access_token() catch-all so token
refresh failures are observable instead of silently swallowed
- Tighten _is_nous_auxiliary_client() domain check to use proper URL
hostname parsing instead of substring match, preventing false-positives
on domains like not-nousresearch.com or nousresearch.com.evil.com
- add managed modal and gateway-backed tool integrations\n- improve CLI setup, auth, and configuration for subscriber flows\n- expand tests and docs for managed tool support
