# windows.ps1 -- repo-owned Windows Desktop update hand-off. # # WHY THIS EXISTS (the frozen-binary problem): the Desktop's Update button # used to hand off exclusively to the staged Tauri binary # (%HERMES_HOME%\hermes-setup.exe). That binary has no self-update path -- # copy_self_to_hermes_home deliberately no-ops during --update -- so every # updater-side fix (cache refresh #67369, marker self-adopt #74782, straggler # handling) only reaches users when a new installer is built, signed, and # published. In practice binaries go months stale and users hit long-fixed # bugs on every update (the 2026-08-09 incident chain). # # This script lives in the repo checkout, so EVERY `hermes update` refreshes # the very code that drives the next update. The Desktop spawns it through a # `cmd start` wrapper (see wrapHandoffForDetachedConsole in # apps/desktop/electron/updater-process.ts -- a bare detached+hidden # powershell dies before -File runs) and exits; only PowerShell itself -- an # OS component -- is "frozen". # # CONTRACT (keep in sync with apps/desktop/electron/main.ts): # cmd /d /s /c start "" /min powershell -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass # -File scripts\desktop-update\windows.ps1 # -InstallRoot repo checkout (HERMES_HOME\hermes-agent) # -Branch branch to update against # -DesktopPid the Electron main process to wait out # [-RelaunchExe ] Hermes.exe to start when done (omit = no relaunch) # [-NoUi] headless (tests); default shows a progress window # [-NoMarkerCleanup] leave .hermes-update-in-progress in place (tests) # # SAFETY POSTURE: both preflight gates FAIL CLOSED. A Desktop that never # exits, or a venv shim that never unlocks, aborts the hand-off without # mutating the install -- a skipped update is recoverable, a half-updated # venv is not. Every exit path (success, abort, crash) writes # .hermes-update-result.json for the relaunched Desktop to surface, and # relaunches the Desktop so the user is never left stranded. # # Marker: we claim HERMES_HOME\.hermes-update-in-progress with OUR pid as # step 0 (the wrapper cmd.exe pid the Desktop saw is useless -- it exits # immediately), retaining HERMES_UPDATE_STARTED_AT from the Desktop hand-off. # hermes_cli/update_lock.py's ancestry rule lets our # `hermes update` child adopt the claim; electron/update-marker.ts parks a # relaunched Desktop on it.
