Windows counterpart of #39127: scripts/install.ps1 `Install-Desktop` runs
`npm run pack` once and throws on the opaque ENOENT a corrupt cached Electron
download produces, with no recovery. Add `Clear-ElectronBuildCache` plus a
purge-and-retry-once on pack failure, mirroring the install.sh fix: remove the
cached electron-*.zip (%LOCALAPPDATA%\electron\Cache + ELECTRON_CACHE /
electron_config_cache overrides) and stale *-unpacked output, then retry so
@electron/get re-downloads with its own SHASUM verification.

The existing-message overflow split path in stream_consumer.run() sealed the
first chunk via _send_or_edit(chunk) (finalize=False) then reset _message_id
to None — so that chunk was never edited again and never received the adapter's
final rich-text pass. On Telegram, MarkdownV2 formatting is applied on the
finalize edit, so early split messages of a long multi-part streamed reply
rendered raw markdown (##, **bold**, code fences) while only the last chunk
rendered correctly.
Fix: seal the overflow chunk with finalize=True so it gets its final
formatting pass before _message_id is cleared.
Salvaged from #32609 (the streaming-format portion only; the PR's send_draft
parse_mode change is already superseded on main, and its media-roots change
conflicts with the current denylist + recency-window delivery model).
Follow-up to the salvaged #37727. That PR fixed the reactive recovery path
(classifier + post-failure shrinker) but left the PROACTIVE embed-time guard
in vision_tools byte-only — a tall small-byte screenshot (e.g. 1200x12000 at
0.06 MB) still baked into immutable history un-resized, relying on a failed
round-trip to trigger reactive shrink.
- vision_tools: add _image_exceeds_dimension() + _EMBED_MAX_DIMENSION (7900px);
the embed-time cap now fires on bytes OR pixels and passes max_dimension to
the resizer, so tall small-byte images are shrunk before they're embedded.
- vision_tools: best-effort lazy-install of Pillow (tool.vision) in the resize
ImportError fallback so the soft dep self-heals (respects allow_lazy_installs).
- error_classifier: add two more Anthropic dimension-cap wording variants.
- pyproject + lazy_deps: declare Pillow as the [vision] extra / tool.vision
lazy dep (it was undeclared everywhere; without it ALL resize recovery no-ops).
- tests: cover _image_exceeds_dimension (tall/small/edge/no-Pillow/corrupt).

Collapse the payload-shape normalization helpers into one _as_dict and
drop unused dataclass fields (user_type/user_role, duplicate id, bot) on
the meeting-invite handler. Module 274->212 LOC, behavior unchanged.
Add zhaolei.vc@bytedance.com -> zhaoleibd to release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
Root installs on Linux (FHS layout, #15608) put the `hermes` command in
`/usr/local/bin` (on PATH) but symlinked the bundled node/npm/npx into
`~/.local/bin`, which isn't on PATH for a stock root shell. `node`/`npm`
were 'command not found' and `hermes dashboard` failed with 'npm is not
available' because its build-on-demand fallback couldn't find npm.
Fix: `install_node()` now symlinks into `get_command_link_dir()` — the same
helper the `hermes` command link already uses — so node/npm/npx land
wherever the command does (`/usr/local/bin` on FHS root, `~/.local/bin`
otherwise, `$PREFIX/bin` on Termux). Non-root and Termux installs are
unchanged.
Also fixes:
- `scripts/lib/node-bootstrap.sh`: adds `_nb_get_link_dir()` mirroring
the same root/Termux/user logic for the standalone bootstrap path
(used by `hermes update`, TUI node bootstrap, etc.)
- `hermes_cli/uninstall.py`: `remove_node_symlinks()` now checks all
candidate directories (`~/.local/bin`, `/usr/local/bin`, `$PREFIX/bin`)
so root FHS uninstalls don't leave orphan symlinks
Regression from #15608, which created the FHS path for the command but
left `install_node` pointed at the legacy user-local dir.
* refactor(supermemory): session-level conversation ingest + kebab tool aliases
Salvaged from #32487 (by @MaheshtheDev), rebased onto current main.
- sync_turn now buffers cleaned turns; the full session is ingested once
at session end / switch / shutdown via the conversations endpoint
- ingest_conversation() accepts and forwards functional document metadata
(type, session_id, message_count, partial)
- register kebab-case tool aliases (supermemory-save/search/forget/profile)
alongside the snake_case names
- README + docs (EN/zh-Hans) updated for the simplified session model
Source/vendor-attribution removed per project policy (no telemetry):
dropped x-sm-source header, sm_source metadata, and sm_capture_mode tags.
Preserved the post-branch atomic_json_write(mode=0o600) hardening that the
PR's stale base had reverted. Updated provider tests for the new behavior
and added maheshthedev@gmail.com to release.py AUTHOR_MAP.

* feat(supermemory): restore x-sm-source for Spaces routing
Reinstates x-sm-source: hermes (SDK default_headers + conversations POST)
and sm_source: hermes document metadata. Per @Dhravya (Supermemory), this
is a functional routing key, not telemetry: it groups Hermes writes into a
dedicated "Hermes" Space in the Supermemory app so users can filter and
bulk-manage memories per source agent.
sm_capture_mode remains dropped (appears analytics-only; Spaces are routed
by sm_source) pending confirmation. Adds README note + a unit test covering
_merge_metadata sm_source stamping and legacy source->type migration.

* fix(desktop): critical fixes — attachments, IME composition, scroll, fetchJson
DC2: Pass attachments to onSubmit() on direct Enter submit and call
clearComposerAttachments(). Previously attachments were silently
dropped — only text was sent while attachment pills remained visible.
DH1: Add 'open' to ThinkingDisclosure ResizeObserver effect deps.
When the disclosure toggles, refs point to new DOM but the observer
wasn't reattached, breaking live-scroll preview after expand/collapse
and leaking detached DOM nodes.
DH3+DH4: Add composition tracking via composingRef (set by
compositionstart/compositionend). Guards handleEditorInput (skip
preedit state writes), handleEditorKeyDown (prefer composingRef over
unreliable isComposing), and form onSubmit (prevent IME Enter from
triggering submission). Fixes IME Enter message splitting and preedit
text leaking into app state on CJK input.
DH6: Add res.on('error', reject) to fetchJson response stream.
Without this, a TCP reset mid-transfer left the promise hanging forever,
freezing the desktop UI.
All TypeScript compiles cleanly.
* chore: add copii.list@gmail.com to AUTHOR_MAP (stremtec)
* fix(desktop): prevent scroll snap-back during streaming, atomic config writes
DH2: Defer pinToBottom() in useLayoutEffect to rAF so that browser
scroll/wheel events from the current frame are processed first.
Previously an immediate pinToBottom() could snap the viewport back
to bottom against the user's trackpad scroll-up intent during
streaming — the wheel event hadn't fired yet so stickyBottomRef was
still true.
DH7: Add writeFileAtomic() helper (write to .tmp then rename) and
use it in writeDesktopConnectionConfig, writeDesktopUpdateConfig,
and writeBootstrapMarker. Prevents partial writes on crash/power
loss that would corrupt JSON config files, requiring manual repair.
* fix(desktop): guard nativeTheme listener from duplicates, invalidate connection config cache
DM9: Guard nativeTheme.on('updated') with a one-shot flag so that
multiple createWindow() calls (e.g. macOS activate after all windows
closed) don't accumulate duplicate listeners on the process-wide
singleton.
DM3: Add mtime-based cache invalidation to readDesktopConnectionConfig.
Previously the cache was populated once and never invalidated — if an
external tool modified connection.json, the desktop ignored the change
until restart. Now re-reads when the file's mtime differs.
* fix(desktop): widen fetchJson res.on('error') to sibling fetch + sort JSX props
Follow-up to salvaged #38502:
- resourceBufferFromUrl had the same mid-stream-reset hang class as
fetchJson (req.on('error') present, res.on('error') missing). Add the
response-stream error handler so a TCP reset during body read rejects
instead of leaving the promise unsettled.
- Sort the new onComposition* JSX props to satisfy perfectionist/sort-jsx-props
(was an introduced eslint error in the composer).

Salvage of #35508 (@dchenk), rebased onto current main. Resolved the
tests/tools/test_stage2_hook_puid_pgid.py conflict (kept both the
envdir-creation regression test on main and the new config-migration
tests).
Docker image upgrades replace code under $INSTALL_DIR but preserve
$HERMES_HOME on the mounted volume, so the persisted config.yaml never
received the schema migrations that non-Docker `hermes update` runs
(#35406). This adds scripts/docker_config_migrate.py, invoked from
stage2-hook after first-boot seeding and before gateway services start:
it backs up config.yaml + .env, runs migrate_config(interactive=False),
and honors HERMES_SKIP_CONFIG_MIGRATION=1 for manual control.
Also fixes a latent bug in check_config_version(): it called load_config()
which deep-merges DEFAULT_CONFIG, so a legacy config with no raw
_config_version falsely reported as already-current. It now reads the raw
on-disk file so legacy configs are correctly detected for migration.
Differs from #35508 as submitted (Option B cleanup): dropped the
`_config_version` line added to cli-config.yaml.example and removed the
accompanying test_cli_config_example_declares_latest_version change-detector
test. The example is a copy-template and has no business asserting a schema
version; check_config_version() reads the user's real config.yaml, not the
example. This removes a second sync point that drifts on every version bump.
Closes#35508. Fixes#35406.

`hermes mcp add --auth header` built `Authorization: Bearer ${MCP_X_API_KEY}`
and passed it straight to the discovery probe without interpolation, so the
probe sent the literal placeholder and auth-requiring servers (e.g. n8n)
returned 401. Runtime tool loading worked because `_load_mcp_config()`
interpolates, but the four CLI probe call sites (add/test/login/configure)
all used unresolved config.
Resolve `${ENV}` inside `_probe_single_server` via a new
`_resolve_mcp_server_config()` (load_hermes_dotenv + _interpolate_env_vars),
mirroring runtime loading. This covers all four call sites, not just add.
Also strip a leading `Bearer ` from pasted tokens before saving to
`MCP_*_API_KEY`, so a token pasted with the prefix doesn't produce
`Bearer Bearer <jwt>` (also a 401).
Reported with a precise root-cause analysis in #37792.

uv selects the project Python from requires-python and from the UV_PYTHON
env var, both of which override an already-created venv on the next
'uv sync'. With no upper bound on requires-python, an inherited
UV_PYTHON=3.14 (or a fresh distro whose newest interpreter uv auto-picks)
silently recreated the installer's 3.11 venv at 3.14, where Rust-backed
transitives (pydantic-core) have no cp314 wheel and fall back to a maturin
source build that fails. This bit a Windows/WSL user with UV_PYTHON set in
their shell and a fresh WSL-arch box where uv auto-picked 3.14.
Two layers:
- pyproject: requires-python '>=3.11' -> '>=3.11,<3.14' (+ uv lock regen).
uv now refuses a 3.14 interpreter with a clear error instead of attempting
the maturin build. Backstop independent of the installer.
- install.sh / install.ps1: pin UV_PYTHON to the venv interpreter after
creating it (in both the venv step and the deps step, since bootstrap runs
those stages as separate processes). An inherited UV_PYTHON can no longer
hijack the sync/pip tiers, so the install just works regardless of shell env.
Verified E2E: hostile UV_PYTHON=3.14 + uv venv --python 3.11 + uv sync now
installs into 3.11 with pydantic-core's 3.11 wheel; without the re-pin the
capped requires-python produces a legible incompatibility error rather than a
cryptic build failure.
The stash/restore cycle in the update path was observed to clobber
freshly-pulled source files (apps/desktop/ deletion -> Vite
'[UNRESOLVED_ENTRY] Cannot resolve entry module index.html'). On a
managed clone the user never edits the source tree, so any 'dirty' state
is pure git artifact (CRLF renormalization, npm lockfile churn, files
left behind when a directory was deleted upstream such as
apps/bootstrap-installer/). Stashing that and re-applying it after a pull
is fragile and unnecessary.
- hermes update (hermes_cli/main.py): on a non-fork (managed) clone,
discard working-tree dirt via reset --hard HEAD + clean -fd instead of
stash/apply. Forks keep the stash machinery so intentional edits
survive. Also pin core.autocrlf=false on Windows so the dirt is never
created (mirrors install.ps1 #38239).
- install.sh: replace the update-path stash/restore dance with a hard
reset to origin/<branch>; the installer is a managed-only entry point.
- install.sh + install.ps1 desktop stage: prefer 'npm ci' (wipes and
reinstalls node_modules from the lockfile) over bare 'npm install',
which can report 'up to date' against a stale marker while node_modules
is empty -- leaving tsc unresolved so 'npm run pack' fails.
Tests: managed clone cleans instead of stashing; fork still stashes;
existing stash tests force the stash path explicitly.
The "Build desktop app" install step failed with an opaque "exit code 1"
on machines with an old Node, and nothing in the logs explained it.
Reproduced: on Node 20.5.1, `npm run pack`'s `vite build` crashes with
You are using Node.js 20.5.1. Vite requires Node.js version 20.19+ or 22.12+.
SyntaxError: The requested module 'node:util' does not provide an
export named 'styleText'
Vite 8 (rolldown) imports node:util.styleText, which doesn't exist before
Node 20.12, so the build dies before producing the app. The installer's
check_node / Test-Node accepted ANY pre-existing Node with no version
floor, so a too-old system Node was used for the build instead of the
bundled Node 22.
Add a version floor (^20.19 || >=22.12) to check_node (install.sh) and
Test-Node (install.ps1): a too-old system Node is replaced with the
Hermes-managed Node 22 LTS, and the desktop stage re-resolves Node so the
build always runs on a satisfying version. Declare the same range in
apps/desktop/package.json engines.
Verified: build succeeds on Node 22, fails on 20.5.1 with the error above;
the floor logic matches Vite's range across boundary versions (20.18/20.19,
21.x, 22.11/22.12).
Git for Windows defaults to core.autocrlf=true, which renormalizes the
repo's LF-only text files to CRLF in the working tree. On a managed,
never-user-edited clone this makes tracked files (.envrc, AGENTS.md,
agent/*.py, workflows) show as locally modified, so the update path's
bare git checkout aborts with 'Your local changes would be overwritten
by checkout' and the desktop bootstrap fails at stage=repository.
The bash installer already autostashes before checkout; the PowerShell
path had no dirty-tree handling at all and never pinned autocrlf.
Fix: (1) git reset --hard HEAD before fetch/checkout in the update path
to discard any pre-existing dirt, and (2) pin core.autocrlf=false on both
the update and fresh-clone paths so the dirt is never created again.
- Add @testing-library/dom to apps/desktop devDeps in package-lock.json
so npm ci validates against the manifest change (contributor left the
lockfile out of the PR intentionally).
- Removes stale 'peer: true' flags now that dom is an explicit devDep.
- AUTHOR_MAP: prostoandrei9@gmail.com -> vladkvlchk (CI author gate).
Follow-up to the salvaged contributor commit:
- Underscore→hyphen tolerance now emits a resolvable token. Previously
the detect set accepted the hyphenated variant but emit returned the
raw token, so '!set_home' produced '/set_home' which the dispatcher
could not resolve. Now emits '/set-home'. Aliases are left as-is — the
gateway dispatcher canonicalizes them itself.
- Fix dead skill-command branch: skill command keys are stored
slash-prefixed (e.g. '/arxiv') in get_skill_commands(), but the check
compared the bare token, so '!arxiv' never normalized. Now compares
the '/candidate' form, making skill aliases (e.g. !gif-search) work.
- Re-run bang normalization after Matrix reply-fallback stripping so a
quoted reply whose content is a bang command reaches command parity
with the slash form.
- Replace silent 'except Exception: pass' with logger.debug(exc_info=True).
- Add AUTHOR_MAP entry for @nepenth.
Tests: +5 (underscore-alias, skill-command branch, quoted-reply bang +
slash parity). 162 Matrix tests pass.
Electron's chrome-sandbox helper must be root:root 4755 on Linux or the
sandboxed renderer aborts before the desktop app starts. The existing
installer only searched for macOS .app bundles, so a successful Linux
build was reported as missing.
Changes:
- Add _desktop_linux_sandbox_fixup() to hermes_cli/main.py, called
before launching a packaged desktop app on Linux.
- Use lstat() + S_ISREG check to reject symlinks — chown/chmod on a
symlink target would set SUID on an arbitrary path.
- Update install.sh to recognize Linux unpacked artifacts and configure
chrome-sandbox with proper error handling (the original PR silently
ignored chown/chmod failures).
- Add regression tests: normal fixup flow, symlink rejection, and
already-configured skip path.
Closes#37529 (rebased, merge conflicts resolved, copilot review
feedback addressed).
Replace the multi-path UV resolution chain (PATH probing, conda guards,
5-location trust ordering, temp-dir fallback installs) with a single
managed uv binary at $HERMES_HOME/bin/uv. Every code path that needs
uv resolves it from that one location; if missing, ensure_uv()
bootstraps it via the official standalone installer.
Key changes:
- New hermes_cli/managed_uv.py: managed_uv_path(), resolve_uv(),
ensure_uv() (returns (path, freshly_bootstrapped) tuple),
update_managed_uv(), rebuild_venv(), installer internals.
- hermes_cli/main.py: replace all shutil.which('uv') with ensure_uv(),
add venv rebuild on first-time managed uv bootstrap, update_managed_uv
before dep install on all 3 update paths.
- scripts/install.sh: install_uv() always installs to
$HERMES_HOME/bin/uv; delete ensure_fts5, _python_has_fts5,
_reinstall_python_with_fts5, _warn_no_fts5 (61 lines).
Managed uv always installs current Python with FTS5.
- scripts/install.ps1: Install-Uv always installs to
$HermesHome\bin\uv.exe; Resolve-UvCmd checks managed location first.
- hermes_state.py: simplified FTS5 warning now suggests 'hermes update'
as the fix instead of blaming install method.
- tests: 15 tests in test_managed_uv.py, autouse _patch_managed_uv
fixture in test_cmd_update.py.
Closes#37605, Closes#37622
The check-attribution CI job on #37679 failed because the commit
author email nolan@0xvox.com (a local git config mistake on this
machine) is not in scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP. The commit
itself is now re-authored to fearvox1015@gmail.com, and this
follow-up adds the entry to AUTHOR_MAP so any future commits

Background-task (/background, /btw) result media now routes to the
type-specific sender — TTS clip → voice bubble, video → send_video,
image → send_image_file — instead of forcing everything through
send_document. Mirrors the streaming + kanban delivery paths and
reuses base.should_send_media_as_audio for the Telegram OGG nuance.

Follow-up to the salvaged terminalBackground commit:
- align the CSS-var fallback and type doc to the runtime default (#000000)
- revert web/package-lock.json to main (the original commit stripped peer
flags as an npm-version artifact, unrelated to the feature)
Salvages 8 distinct fixes from a batch of PRs by @kyssta-exe, reapplied
onto current main (original branches were stale) with a few refinements.
- cron(jobs.py): load_jobs() validates top-level JSON shape — a bare
list auto-repairs into the {"jobs": [...]} dict; scalars/null raise a
clear RuntimeError instead of an uncaught AttributeError that took
down the whole cron subsystem (#37065, closes#36867).
- web(web_server.py): close the per-action log file handle after Popen
so the parent stops leaking one fd per spawned action (#36843).
- web(web_server.py): DELETE /api/env returns 400 for invalid key names
instead of a misleading 500, mirroring PUT /api/env (#36840).
- gateway(gateway.py): read /proc/<pid>/cmdline inside a with-block so
the fd is released immediately instead of relying on GC (#36804).
- web-tools(web_tools.py): include "xai" in check_web_api_key() so a
configured X.AI web backend reports as available (#36802).
- compression(conversation_compression.py): mark the feasibility check
done only after it completes, and default the gate to "not checked"
if the attribute is missing (#36803).
- completion(completion.py): replace `ls` with directory globbing in the
generated bash/zsh/fish profile listers — handles names with spaces
and skips non-directory entries (#36806).
- terminal-tool(terminal_tool.py): drop a duplicate `import threading`
(#36808).
- claw(claw.py): the migrate recommendation now points at the real
`hermes gateway stop` command instead of the non-existent
`hermes stop` (#36795, #36796, closes#36771).
- tests: guard against a leaked HERMES_CRON_SESSION breaking gateway
approval tests — add it to the hermetic conftest unset list (root
cause, protects every test) and pop it in the affected test's
setup_method (#36796).

* feat(install): --no-skills flag for blank-slate default profile
Add an install-time --no-skills flag so the default ~/.hermes profile can
be created with zero bundled skills, matching what
`hermes profile create --no-skills` already does for named profiles.
The flag writes $HERMES_HOME/.no-bundled-skills and skips the install-time
seed. sync_skills() now honors that marker with an early return
(skipped_opt_out=True), so neither the installer, a later `hermes update`,
nor a direct sync re-injects bundled skills into a profile that opted out.
Previously the marker was only checked by seed_profile_skills() (named
profiles); the default profile had no opt-out and `hermes update` would
re-seed it every time.
Tests: TestNoBundledSkillsOptOut covers marker-present (no-op) and
marker-absent (normal seed) paths.
* feat(skills): hermes skills opt-out / opt-in for existing profiles
Adds an interactive counterpart to the install-time --no-skills flag so
an already-installed profile (default or named) can toggle the
.no-bundled-skills marker without reinstalling.
- `hermes skills opt-out` writes the marker (stop future seeding). Safe
by default: nothing on disk is touched.
- `hermes skills opt-out --remove` ALSO deletes already-present bundled
skills, but ONLY ones that are manifest-tracked AND byte-identical to
their origin hash. User-edited bundled skills, hub-installed skills, and
hand-written skills are never removed. Previews + confirms before
deleting (--yes to skip).
- `hermes skills opt-in [--sync]` removes the marker and optionally
re-seeds immediately.
Core logic lives in tools/skills_sync.py (set_bundled_skills_opt_out,
is_bundled_skills_opt_out, remove_pristine_bundled_skills) reusing the
existing manifest origin-hash machinery for the safety check.
Tests: TestOptOutToggleAndRemove covers marker toggle idempotency and
proves user-modified + non-bundled skills survive --remove.
* docs: blank-slate skills — install --no-skills + opt-out/opt-in
- features/skills.md: new 'Starting with a blank slate' section covering
the install flag, profile-create flag, and runtime opt-out/opt-in, with
a safe-by-default note.
- reference/cli-commands.md: document the new skills opt-out / opt-in
subcommands + examples.
- reference/profile-commands.md: fix the marker filename (was .no-skills,
actually .no-bundled-skills) and cross-link the runtime commands.
Validated with a full docusaurus build (exit 0); the three edited pages
compile clean with no new warnings.
Extends the existing /undo command from a single in-memory exchange
removal into a full rewind: back up N user turns (default 1), soft-delete
the truncated rows in SessionDB (active=0, kept for audit, hidden from
re-prompts and search), notify memory providers, and prefill the composer
with the backed-up message text for editing — CLI and TUI.
Reuses the SessionDB rewind primitives, the on_session_switch(rewound=True)
memory hook, and the TUI command.dispatch prefill payload from SaguaroDev's
#21910 work, wired to /undo [N] instead of a separate /rewind picker.
- cli.py: undo_last(n, prefill) — in-memory truncate + SQLite soft-delete
+ agent surgery (system-prompt invalidate, flush-index reset) + memory
notify + editable buffer prefill; /undo dispatch parses optional count;
checkpoint-rollback caller passes prefill=False
- tui_gateway/server.py: command.dispatch undo branch (was rewind) parses
count, picks Nth-from-last user turn, clamps to oldest
- commands.py: /undo gains [N] args_hint
- tests: rename + expand TUI suite (multi-turn, clamp, invalid-count)
- release.py: AUTHOR_MAP entry for SaguaroDev

Adds nicsequenzy@gmail.com -> polnikale to AUTHOR_MAP so the
check-attribution gate passes for the Playwright headless_shell browser
discovery fix (#35717).
The targeted data-volume chown in stage2-hook.sh only covers hermes-owned
*subdirectories*; loose state files living directly under $HERMES_HOME
(auth.json, state.db, gateway.lock, gateway_state.json, …) are missed.
When created or rewritten by `docker exec <container> hermes …` (root
unless `-u` is passed) they land root-owned, and the unprivileged hermes
runtime then hits PermissionError on next startup, producing a gateway
restart loop.
Fix: reset ownership of an explicit allowlist of hermes-owned top-level
files on every boot. The list mirrors the top-level file entries of
hermes_cli.profile_distribution.USER_OWNED_EXCLUDE plus the runtime lock
files.
This uses a targeted allowlist rather than the originally-proposed blanket
`find $HERMES_HOME -maxdepth 1 -user root` sweep, preserving the
targeted-ownership contract from #19788 / PR #19795: a bind-mounted
$HERMES_HOME may contain host-owned files Hermes does not manage, and
those must never be chowned. Verified end-to-end: allowlisted root-owned
files are reset to hermes on restart while a non-allowlisted host file
keeps its root ownership.

On macOS the desktop app is built locally and ad-hoc signed (no Developer ID
on the user's machine). An ad-hoc bundle has no stable Designated Requirement,
so when the self-updater rebuilds it in place with a fresh build (new cdhash)
— plus the com.apple.quarantine flag inherited from the downloaded installer
process chain — Gatekeeper/LaunchServices treats the changed code as tampering
and macOS reports "Hermes is damaged and can't be opened," and the app fails to
relaunch. First launch works (fresh registration); the in-place update relaunch
is what breaks.
Fix: after building the desktop app locally, strip quarantine xattrs and
re-apply a clean deep ad-hoc signature (omitting the hardened-runtime flag,
which an ad-hoc build can't satisfy). Applied in both build entry points:
- hermes_cli/main.py cmd_gui (the `hermes desktop --build-only` path the
updater drives) — so the fix ships via `hermes update` (git), no installer
re-download needed.
- scripts/install.sh install_desktop (first install) for parity.
Both are no-ops on non-macOS and when a real signing identity (CSC_LINK /
APPLE_SIGNING_IDENTITY) is configured, so signed/notarized builds are untouched.
Adds me@simontaggart.com → SiTaggart to AUTHOR_MAP so the
check-attribution gate passes for the docker_forward_env empty-secret
fix (#35583, fixes#35580).
The thin installer (apps/bootstrap-installer) drives install.sh stage-by-stage,
each in its own process. The `desktop` stage never called check_node, so the
Hermes-managed Node provisioned earlier (at $HERMES_HOME/node/bin) wasn't on
PATH. install_desktop's `command -v npm` check then failed and the build was
skipped — yet the stage still reported {"ok":true,"skipped":false}, so the
installer showed "Installation Complete" and only failed at the end with
"Couldn't find a built Hermes desktop ... the desktop build step may have been
skipped or failed."
Fix:
- Call check_node in the `desktop` stage (mirrors every other Node-dependent
stage) so the managed Node is on PATH (or installed).
- Make install_desktop self-provision via check_node and hard-fail (return 1)
if npm is still unavailable, instead of a silent `return 0`. The desktop
stage only runs when a build is explicitly requested (--include-desktop), so
an unavailable toolchain is a real failure, not graceful degradation.
Verified on macOS arm64: the `desktop` stage now builds
release/mac-arm64/Hermes.app, which matches resolve_hermes_desktop_exe, so the
installer's "Launch Hermes" succeeds.
