fix(local): recognize unqualified hostnames as local endpoints (#9248)
Docker Compose service names (e.g. ollama, litellm, hermes-litellm) are unqualified hostnames with no dots. These are always local — they resolve via Docker DNS, /etc/hosts, or mDNS. Without this fix, the stale stream timeout fires on local LLM proxies, causing infinite reconnect loops. Closes #7905 |

polish(minimax): address Copilot review comments on M3 default-aux fix
Three Copilot inline review comments on #37664, two worth landing
in a polish pass before merge:
1. auxiliary_client.py:270 — Copilot suggested keeping the
minimax-* entries in _API_KEY_PROVIDER_AUX_MODELS_FALLBACK as
a safety net for environments where the profile-based
resolution can't import or run plugin discovery. **Declined.**

fix(minimax): align default_aux_model with M3 frontier on minimax + minimax-cn
The minimax / minimax-cn / minimax-oauth profiles still advertised
M2.7 (and M2.7-highspeed for OAuth) as their default_aux_model,
predating the M3 release (2026-06-01). The user-facing
_PROVIDER_MODELS['minimax'] catalog top entry is M3, and the
recommended config for a Token-Plan install now sets
model.default: MiniMax-M3, so the aux default was the only
remaining drift.
Updates:
* minimax default_aux_model: M2.7 -> M3
* minimax-cn default_aux_model: M2.7 -> M3
* minimax-oauth default_aux_model: M2.7-highspeed -> M2.7
(M3 is not on the OAuth / Coding Plan tier per
platform docs as of this PR; the highspeed
variant was the 2x-cost regression from #4082
that PR #6082 collapsed to plain M2.7 for
minimax / minimax-cn but missed OAuth)
* agent/auxiliary_client.py: drop the three legacy
_API_KEY_PROVIDER_AUX_MODELS_FALLBACK entries for the minimax
family. _get_aux_model_for_provider() reads from
ProviderProfile.default_aux_model first (line 250) and only
falls back to the dict when the profile has no aux model or
the profile import fails. With the profile now set, the dict
entries are dead code and a drift hazard. Mirrors the deepseek
cleanup in

fix(vision): use MiniMax type="video" block (not input_video) + tests
The salvaged conversion emitted type:"input_video", which MiniMax M3 rejects just like the original video_url block. Per MiniMax's Anthropic-compat docs, the video content block is type:"video" with an image-style source (base64 or url). Fixes the block type, converts URL-based videos too, and adds 4 video conversion tests (none shipped with the original PR). |

fix(memory): register parent packages for user-installed provider imports
User-installed memory providers load under the synthetic
_hermes_user_memory.<name> package, but the loader never registered that
parent namespace in sys.modules (it only registers "plugins" and
"plugins.memory" for bundled providers). As a result any external provider
using a relative import failed to load:
from . import config
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named '_hermes_user_memory'
The same gap in discover_plugin_cli_commands() meant an external provider's
cli.py with a relative import could never be discovered, so the documented
"hermes <plugin>" CLI integration did not work for standalone plugins.
Register the synthetic parent namespace before loading user-installed
providers, mirror it for cli.py discovery (including the per-provider parent
package, without executing the plugin's __init__.py), and make
_load_provider_from_dir() reuse only modules actually loaded from disk so a
parent shell registered by CLI discovery is never mistaken for the loaded
provider.
Regressions cover: a flat provider with a sibling relative import, a provider
with its implementation in a nested subpackage (including a namespace
intermediate directory), cli.py discovery with a relative import, and
provider load after CLI discovery ran first.

fix: strip extra_content from tool_calls for strict APIs (Fireworks, Mistral)
Fireworks/Mistral reject HTTP 400 'Extra inputs are not permitted, field: messages[N].tool_calls[M].extra_content' on any session whose history contains prior Gemini tool calls. Gemini 3 thinking models attach extra_content (thought_signature) to tool_calls; it survived to the wire because the sanitize paths only stripped call_id/response_item_id. Strip extra_content from the outgoing wire copy in both sanitize paths (ChatCompletionsTransport.convert_messages + _sanitize_tool_calls_for_strict_api), but gate it on the target model: keep extra_content for Gemini-family targets (the thought_signature MUST be replayed or Gemini 400s), strip it for everyone else — including non-Gemini models that inherit a stale Gemini signature earlier in a mixed-provider session. Native Gemini is unaffected (GeminiNativeClient bypasses these paths). Original stored history is never mutated (only the per-call copy). Fixes #17986. |

feat(cli): make hermes portal the human-readable Portal onboarding alias
`hermes portal` (no subcommand) now runs the one-shot Nous Portal onboarding — OAuth login, switch provider to Nous, offer Tool Gateway — identical to `hermes setup --portal` and the human-readable alias for `hermes auth add nous --type oauth` (which still works). The prior status default moves to `hermes portal info`; `status` is kept as a hidden back-compat alias. `open`/`tools` subcommands are unchanged. User-facing hints and docs (status.py, conversation_loop 401 guidance, SystemPage, README, website docs + zh-Hans) now point at `hermes portal` / `hermes portal info`. `--manual-paste` references keep the explicit auth command since `hermes portal` does not expose that flag. |

fix(packaging): ship locales/ i18n catalogs in wheel, sdist, and Nix (#38383)
* fix(packaging): ship locales/ i18n catalogs in wheel, sdist, and Nix locales/ is a bare data dir (no __init__.py), invisible to packages.find and package-data. Sealed installs (pip wheel, Nix store venv) dropped it, so gateway/CLI commands rendered raw i18n keys like gateway.reset.header_default. - pyproject: [tool.setuptools.data-files] locales = ["locales/*.yaml"] (wheel) - MANIFEST.in: graft locales (sdist) - agent/i18n._locales_dir: env override -> source -> sysconfig data scheme - nix/hermes-agent.nix: copy locales into the store + set HERMES_BUNDLED_LOCALES as defense-in-depth. The wheel's data-files already materialize into the uv2nix venv, so resolution works with no env var; the override pins the store path against a future uv2nix change that could drop data-files. - tests: metadata regression, wheel + sdist build-install smoke tests, and a bundled-locales flake check that verifies BOTH the wrapper override and the env-var-less data-files path. Smoke test wired into CI. Closes #23943, #27632, #35374. Supersedes #23966, #27716, #30261, #33841, #35429, #35494, #35735, #36697. * test: cap locale e2e timeout, tighten catalog count guard The two wheel/sdist e2e tests inherit the global --timeout=30 from addopts; a cold-CI run (isolated build env + venv create + network pip install) can plausibly exceed it. Add @pytest.mark.timeout(300) so they don't ride the unit-test budget and flake intermittently. Also assert the shipped catalog count equals len(SUPPORTED_LANGUAGES) instead of a hardcoded >=16 floor, so the guard self-updates and trips on a single dropped catalog (not just a fully-empty graft). |

fix(aux): self-heal Nous-routed calls when a pinned model leaves the catalog (#37732)
A long-lived process (gateway, watcher) caches the Nous Portal's recommended-models payload and can pin a model for its whole lifetime. When that model is later dropped from the Nous -> OpenRouter catalog, every auxiliary call 404s with 'model does not exist in our configuration or OpenRouter catalog' until the process restarts. Now such a 404 force-refreshes the Portal recommendation and retries once with the current pick (or the gemini-3-flash-preview default). Scoped to Nous-routed calls only. - _is_model_not_found_error(): 404/400 'not found / does not exist / not a valid model' predicate, excludes billing keywords so it never overlaps _is_payment_error. - _refresh_nous_recommended_model(): force-refresh fetch, returns a model distinct from the one that failed, else the known-good default. - Wired into both call_llm and async_call_llm error chains. |

fix(desktop): stabilize project folder sessions (#37586)
* fix(desktop): stabilize project folder sessions Keep desktop folder selection aligned with new sessions and scope TUI gateway cwd through session context so prompts and tools resolve against the selected workspace. * fix(desktop): address review feedback on folder sessions Snapshot sessions before iterating to avoid concurrent-mutation crashes, optional-chain the revealLogs catch, and read console-message args from the correct Electron event/messageDetails positions. * fix(desktop): address second review pass on folder sessions Sync the remembered workspace key with the cwd atom (clear on empty), only load tree children for real directory nodes, and throttle renderer auto-reloads so a deterministic startup crash can't loop forever. * fix(desktop): inherit parent workspace for ephemeral agent tasks Background and preview tasks use ephemeral ids absent from the session map, so pass the parent session cwd into the session context explicitly instead of clearing it back to the gateway launch dir. Also correct the set_session_vars docstring about clear_session_vars semantics. * fix(desktop): validate preview cwd before pinning session context A non-empty but non-existent client cwd would pin an unusable override and silently fall back to the launch dir. Validate once, reuse for both the session context and the terminal override, and fall back to the parent session workspace when invalid. * fix(desktop): harden preview cwd normalization and adopt normalized cwd Guard preview cwd normalization against malformed client paths so a bad input can't fail the whole restart, and adopt the backend's normalized config.get cwd in the no-active-session path so the persisted workspace stays consistent with what the agent uses. |

test(minimax): assert M3 stale-cache guard contract, not a brittle 1M literal (#37220)
test_stale_m3_cache_dropped_and_reresolves_to_1m hardcoded assert ctx == 1_000_000. The test re-resolves M3 through the live models.dev registry (the seeded stale entry is dropped, so nothing short-circuits the lookup), and models.dev now reports MiniMax-M3 at 512,000 — a change-detector failure unrelated to any code change. The guard's actual contract is: a stale <=204,800 catch-all value for an M3 slug must be DROPPED and re-resolved to M3's real (large) context. Both sources satisfy that (hardcoded catalog 1,000,000; models.dev 512,000), so assert the invariant (ctx > 204,800, stale value gone) instead of a literal that external data can move. Renamed accordingly. 47/47 in test_minimax_provider.py pass. |

fix(file-safety): extend sandbox-mirror guard to cover inner-container path (#32049) (#32407)
* fix(file-safety): extend sandbox-mirror guard to cover inner-container path (#32049) Brian's shape-based guard (#32213) catches paths that still carry the full sandboxes/<backend>/<task>/home/.hermes/… prefix on the host side. The inner-container case is not covered: when file tools execute inside Docker the bind-mount strips that prefix, so the guard receives plain /root/.hermes/… and passes through. The root:root ownership on the divergent SOUL.md in #32049 confirms this is the primary failure mode. Add a ContextVar (_CONTAINER_HERMES_MIRROR) set by DockerEnvironment when persistent=True. classify_container_mirror_target / get_container_ mirror_warning detect any write whose resolved path falls under that prefix, using the same warning format and cross_profile=True bypass contract as the existing guards. Chain the new guard in _check_cross_profile_path after the two existing detectors. * fix(file-safety): derive Docker mirror guard from task --------- Co-authored-by: Ben <ben@nousresearch.com> |

fix(file-safety): add sandbox-mirror soft guard for writes to per-task .hermes mirrors (#32213)
#32049 reports that under terminal.backend: docker, write_file / patch calls to authoritative profile state (SOUL.md, memories, etc.) land on the sandbox-local mirror at ``<HERMES_HOME>/profiles/<name>/sandboxes/<backend>/<task>/home/.hermes/...`` — a path the host Hermes process never reads. The tool reports success, the user sees no behavior change, and on disk two divergent copies of SOUL.md (or any other profile file) accumulate. The existing classify_cross_profile_target guard does not catch this: its parts[2] check sees "sandboxes" and returns None, and the path is in-profile from the inner-mirror perspective so even a fixed version would not fire. Add a parallel sandbox-mirror classifier in agent/file_safety: * classify_sandbox_mirror_target() detects the ``…/sandboxes/<backend>/<task>/home/.hermes/…`` shape via path parts. Detection is path-shape only — backend-agnostic, does not require the file to exist, and works regardless of which HERMES_HOME resolves. * get_sandbox_mirror_warning() returns a model-facing warning that names the mirror root and the inner authoritative path the agent likely meant. Wire both detectors through tools/file_tools._check_cross_profile_path so the existing write_file and v4a patch call sites pick up the new guard with no API change. The bypass kwarg (``cross_profile=True``) remains shared between the two guards — same "I know what I'm doing" escape valve after explicit user direction. This is the defense-in-depth piece of the proposal in #32049 ("any …/sandboxes/<backend>/…/home/…hermes/… path as sandbox-mirror"). It catches the host-side speculation case where the agent writes a literal sandbox-mirror path. The inner-container case (where the bind mount strips the ``sandboxes/`` prefix from the agent's path view) is out of scope for this surgical change — that requires either a dispatch-layer host-side check before the container handoff, or the host-side ``profile_state`` / ``soul`` tool the issue also proposes. Soft guard, NOT a security boundary — matches the existing classify_cross_profile_target contract.

fix(minimax): drop stale ≤204,800 cache entries for MiniMax-M3 (#36726)
M3 is 1M context, but pre-catalog builds resolved it via the generic 'minimax' catch-all (204,800) and persisted that to the context-length cache. Step 1 of get_model_context_length returned the cached value directly before reaching the 'minimax-m3' (1M) catalog entry, so users who first probed M3 on an older build were stuck at 204K forever (e.g. /new in the Telegram gateway showing 'Context: 204K tokens (detected)'). Mirror the existing Kimi/Codex stale-cache guards: when a cached entry for a minimax-m3 slug is <= 204,800, drop it and re-resolve. M2.x slugs (correctly 204,800) are untouched since they don't match the M3 name. |

feat(curator): prune built-in skills after inactivity + track usage for all skills (#36701)
Two related changes to the skill curator: 1. Built-in pruning. New curator.prune_builtins config (default on) lets the curator archive bundled built-in skills after the inactivity period, not just agent-created ones. A .curator_suppressed list tells the update-time re-seeder (tools/skills_sync) to leave pruned built-ins archived, so the prune is durable across `hermes update`. Built-ins are seeded with a baseline record on first sight, so the inactivity clock starts at upgrade time -- no mass-prune on the first run. Hub-installed skills are never pruned regardless of the flag. Restoring a built-in clears its suppression. 2. Usage tracking for all skills. Telemetry (view/use/patch) was wrongly gated behind curation-eligibility, so built-ins were tracked only when prunable and hub skills never. Telemetry is observability and is now decoupled from curation: every skill accrues usage counts regardless of provenance, while lifecycle mutators (set_state/set_pinned/mark_agent_created) stay curation-gated. New usage_report() + provenance() expose all skills with an agent/bundled/hub tag. |

Add Hermes desktop app (#20059)
* feat: better composer etc * docs: add desktop and dashboard run instructions * fix(desktop): address security scan findings * fix(dashboard): resolve @nous-research/ui path under npm workspaces The sync-assets prebuild step shelled out to 'cp -r node_modules/@nous-research/ui/dist/fonts ...' with a path relative to apps/dashboard/. That works only when the dep is installed locally in the dashboard workspace, but 'npm install' at the repo root (the documented setup — see apps/desktop/README.md) hoists shared deps to the root node_modules under npm workspaces. The relative cp then fails with 'No such file or directory', sync-assets exits 1, the Vite build aborts, and 'hermes dashboard' surfaces a generic 'Web UI build failed' message. Replace the shell one-liner with scripts/sync-assets.cjs, which walks up from the dashboard directory looking for node_modules/ @nous-research/ui — working in both the hoisted (workspaces) and co-located (standalone) layouts. Also guards against a missing dist/fonts or dist/assets with a clearer error pointing at a rebuild of the UI package rather than silently copying nothing. * feat(desktop): support connecting to a remote Hermes backend Add HERMES_DESKTOP_REMOTE_URL and HERMES_DESKTOP_REMOTE_TOKEN env vars that, when set, short-circuit the local-child spawn in startHermes() and connect the Electron renderer to an already- running 'hermes dashboard' server reachable over the network. Motivating use case: WSL2 users who want to run the Hermes core (agent loop, tools, filesystem access) inside their WSL distribution while rendering the Electron GUI on native Windows. Before this change, the desktop app always spawned a local Python child on the same host as the renderer, which doesn't cross the WSL/Windows boundary. The remote path reuses waitForHermes() as a liveness probe (/api/status is in the backend's public endpoint allowlist), so the connection is only returned once the backend is actually ready. WebSocket URL derivation picks ws:// or wss:// based on the input scheme. URL validation rejects non-http(s) schemes and requires both env vars together to avoid a half-configured connection that would silently fall through to the spawn path. No behaviour change when the env vars are unset — the default local-spawn flow is untouched. Typical usage: # in WSL2 hermes dashboard --tui --no-open --host 0.0.0.0 --port 9119 --insecure # on Windows set HERMES_DESKTOP_REMOTE_URL=http://localhost:9119 set HERMES_DESKTOP_REMOTE_TOKEN=<session token> set HERMES_DESKTOP_IGNORE_EXISTING=1 (launch Hermes desktop) * ci(desktop): automate desktop releases Add GitHub Actions release channels for signed desktop installers and document the stable/nightly download paths. * feat: file tabs * refactor(desktop): tighten right-rail tab close API Promote closeRightRailTab/closeActiveRightRailTab as the single public entry point. Drops the activeTabRef + handleCloseDocument indirection in ChatPreviewRail, the unused $rightRailHasContent atom, and the legacy dismissFilePreviewTarget alias. -70 LOC. * feat(desktop): polish composer pill toward reference look Solid foreground-on-background send/voice-conversation circle (black-on-white in light, white-on-black in dark) anchors the right edge as the primary CTA instead of the orange theme primary. Bumps the primary control to 2.125rem so it visually outranks the ghost mic/plus controls. Opens up the surface padding (0.625rem x / 0.5rem y) so the input row breathes around its controls, and nudges the corner radius from 20 to 24px for a slightly pill-ier silhouette. LiquidGlass distortion is preserved. * feat(desktop): add startup and onboarding flow Add phase-based desktop boot progress, fresh-install sandbox testing, and first-run provider credential onboarding so packaged installs can start cleanly without manual settings detours. * fix(desktop): gate prompts on provider setup Show the desktop provider onboarding flow before prompt submission when no inference provider is configured, preventing fresh installs from falling through to backend credential errors. * fix(desktop): surface provider onboarding from session warnings Propagate credential warnings through session runtime info and open desktop onboarding whenever a session reports no usable provider, so unconfigured installs cannot fall through to prompt errors. * fix(desktop): route gateway provider errors to onboarding The "No inference provider configured" auth error reaches the renderer through gateway error events, not the prompt.submit promise; the previous patch only caught the latter, so the error toast still surfaced and onboarding never opened. Also strip credential-shaped env vars from the test:desktop:fresh sandbox so the packaged backend can't see provider keys leaking from the launching shell. * fix(desktop): use strict runtime check to drive onboarding setup.status returned True whenever any provider auth state was discoverable, including indirect fallbacks like a gh-CLI Copilot token. That made desktop think the user was set up while the agent's actual resolve_runtime_provider call still raised AuthError, leaving the user with a useless toast and no onboarding. Add a setup.runtime_check gateway method that runs the same resolver the agent uses on session creation, and switch the desktop onboarding overlay and prompt precheck to use it. * feat(desktop): OAuth-first onboarding using existing dashboard provider API Replace the engineer-flavored API key form with a Sign-in-first onboarding overlay that uses the dashboard's existing /api/providers/oauth catalog and PKCE/device-code endpoints (Anthropic, Nous, OpenAI Codex, etc.). API key entry is now a fallback tab with friendly provider names instead of env var prefixes, and the loud raw resolver error is gone in favor of a one-line welcome message. * fix(desktop): polish onboarding provider list Reorder OAuth providers so Nous Portal is first, give the segmented Sign in / API key control equal column widths, and replace the engineer-flavored backend names like "Anthropic (Claude API)" / "MiniMax (OAuth)" with friendlier in-app titles. External-CLI providers now show a softer subtitle and an external-link icon instead of a chevron. * refactor(desktop): split onboarding overlay into store + view Move the OAuth state machine, runtime check, copy-to-clipboard, and api-key save into store/onboarding.ts (matching the boot.ts pattern), leaving the overlay as a presentation layer that subscribes via useStore. Tabs are now table-driven, child panels read flow from the store instead of prop-drilling, and the polling/PKCE/error/success branches share a small Status atom. * fix(desktop): external CLI providers + center mode tabs External-CLI providers (Claude Code, Qwen Code) now open an in-overlay panel with the CLI command, copy button, and an "I've signed in" recheck instead of firing an invisible toast. Center the Sign in / API key tab control so it sits under the heading instead of hugging the left edge. * fix(desktop): drop onboarding tabs for an inline link, group device-code waiting state Replace the Sign in / API key tab pair with an "I have an API key" footer link under the OAuth provider list, with a "Back to sign in" affordance inside the API key form. Group the device-code "Waiting for you to authorize..." status next to the Cancel button so the alignment matches the action. * refactor(desktop): tighten onboarding store + overlay Drop the dead isOnboardingBusy/BUSY set, factor the catch-fallback dance into safeReq, and share a single reloadAndConnect helper between PKCE submit, device-code success, external recheck, and api-key save. In the overlay, extract Step / CodeBlock / FlowFooter / CancelBtn / DocsLink atoms so the four sign-in panels share the same chrome instead of repeating it inline. Net effect: fewer literal divs, one place to touch the spacing, and the code-block + footer rows are reusable across future flows. * fix(desktop): mount onboarding from frame 1 to kill the FOUT Default onboarding.configured to null (unknown until the runtime check resolves) and have the onboarding overlay render whenever it's not yet confirmed true. The boot overlay now yields to it, so the very first paint is the Welcome card with a "While we get you set up..." progress strip instead of a flash of the chat shell between boot dismiss and onboarding mount. The picker swaps in cleanly once the gateway opens and the runtime check confirms the user is not configured. Already-configured users see the same prep card briefly while their existing runtime warms up, then the overlay dismisses without touching the chat shell. * fix(desktop): top-align empty sessions placeholder The "Start a chat to build your history." empty state used a min-h-35 grid place-items-center container, which floated the text in a tall dead zone. Render it as a flat paragraph that sits right under the section header like the empty pinned state does. * refactor(desktop): drop dead boot overlay Onboarding overlay subsumes the boot card now that it mounts from frame 1 and renders boot progress inline. The standalone DesktopBootOverlay is unreachable in every flow (yields whenever onboarding has not confirmed configured, dismisses once it has). * fix(desktop): hide pinned/recents sections until first session A fresh sidebar showed the Pinned and Recent chats headers with floating empty-state copy underneath. Drop both sections (and the now-orphan SidebarEmptySessionState) when there are no sessions yet — they reappear after the first chat. Skeletons during initial load are unchanged. * feat(gui): route embedded TUI through dashboard gateway (#21979) Inject HERMES_TUI_GATEWAY_URL into dashboard PTY sessions so embedded ui-tui instances attach to the in-process websocket gateway, with coverage for the new env wiring. * Add desktop remote gateway settings Make the desktop gateway connection configurable from settings so local remains the default while remote backends can be saved, tested, and applied without environment variables. * feat(gui): first-class Messaging page + gateway menu redesign - Add Messaging page to the desktop app with per-platform setup, status, and inline guidance. Catalog derives from gateway.config Platform enum + plugin registry, so every messaging adapter the CLI supports (Telegram, Discord, Slack, Mattermost, Matrix, WhatsApp, Signal, BlueBubbles, Home Assistant, Email, SMS, DingTalk, Feishu, WeCom, Weixin, QQ, Yuanbao, API server, Webhooks, plugins) shows up without per-platform code. - New REST endpoints: GET /api/messaging/platforms, PUT and POST /test on the same path. Secrets go through the existing .env pipeline; enable/disable writes config.yaml. - Replace gateway statusbar dropdown with a richer panel: status row, icon-only restart + system-panel actions, recent activity (with timestamps trimmed in display, full text on hover), platform list. - Auto-poll the messaging page every 6s (paused when hidden) so status updates without a manual check. - Drop Settings / Command Center from the sidebar nav (still reachable via shortcuts and the titlebar cog). - Flatten top corners on Messaging/Skills/Artifacts/Chat panes. - Share new StatusDot component across messaging + gateway menu. - Fix gateway/config.py so an explicit platforms.<name>.enabled=false in config.yaml is honored when env tokens are present. - pb-9 on the chat content area for breathing room above the composer. * Potential fix for pull request finding 'CodeQL / Clear-text logging of sensitive information' Co-authored-by: Copilot Autofix powered by AI <62310815+github-advanced-security[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> * pin electron version * hide application menu on non-mac systems * interpret compactPreview for non-string vlaues as JSON or an empty string * fix(desktop): keep composer contenteditable mounted across stacked toggle The composer rendered {input} inside two different parent fragments depending on `stacked`. When auto-expand flipped `stacked` (e.g. the moment typed text wrapped past two lines), React reconciled the two branches as different positions and unmounted/remounted the contenteditable. The fresh mount started empty, so any in-flight characters — most reliably reproduced by holding a key — were lost. Replace the conditional with a single CSS Grid whose template-areas swap on `stacked`. The three children (menu, input, controls) keep stable identities across the toggle; only their grid placement changes, which the browser handles without React tearing down the editor. * refactor(desktop): align install layout with install.ps1 / install.sh Make the desktop app's runtime layout match what scripts/install.ps1 and scripts/install.sh produce, so a desktop-only user and a CLI-only user end up with the same files in the same places and can share one install. Layout - ACTIVE_HERMES_ROOT = HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent (was: process.resourcesPath/hermes-agent, read-only) - VENV_ROOT = HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent/venv (was: userData/hermes-runtime) - desktop.log = HERMES_HOME/logs/desktop.log (was: userData/desktop.log) - HERMES_HOME default: %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes on Windows, ~/.hermes elsewhere The packaged .app/.exe still ships a read-only payload at process.resourcesPath/hermes-agent (FACTORY_HERMES_ROOT). On first launch or after an installer-driven upgrade we sync factory -> active, then provision the venv and run pip install -e . against the active root. Key behaviors - Pin HERMES_HOME in the spawned Python's env so get_hermes_home() resolves to the same path resolveHermesHome() picked. Without this, Python falls back to ~/.hermes on every platform - fine on mac/linux, a split-state bug on Windows where our default is %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes. - Detect developer installs by .git presence at ACTIVE; never overwrite a user's checkout via factory sync. - Marker at ACTIVE/.hermes-desktop-runtime.json (schema v4) tracks pyproject hash + factory version + runtime schema version. depsFresh fast-paths when nothing changed. - Dev (npm run dev) prefers SOURCE_REPO_ROOT over ACTIVE so devs run their local edits, not whatever's under HERMES_HOME. - Better error messages distinguish "no payload" from "no Python". - Preserve a legacy ~/.hermes on Windows when no %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes exists, so users with prior pip/manual installs aren't orphaned. pyproject.toml - Promote fastapi, uvicorn[standard], ptyprocess (non-Windows), and pywinpty (Windows) to main dependencies. The dashboard backend (hermes dashboard) needs them at runtime; the previous lazy-import fallback was a footgun for fresh installs. - Empty the [pty] optional-extra; kept as a no-op back-compat alias for any existing pip install hermes-agent[pty] invocations. Drops the hardcoded BUNDLED_RUNTIME_REQUIREMENTS list in main.cjs - the desktop now installs whatever pyproject.toml says, single source of truth. Files - apps/desktop/electron/main.cjs: runtime layout, HERMES_HOME pin, factory->active sync, marker v4 - apps/desktop/scripts/test-desktop.mjs: track new venv location - apps/desktop/README.md: new Setup, Runtime Bootstrap, and Debugging sections - pyproject.toml: fastapi/uvicorn/pty backends in main dependencies; [pty] extra emptied Tested locally on Windows: npm run dev boots cleanly, sessions land at the new location, type-check + lint + test:desktop:platforms all pass. Verified end-to-end on a fresh Win11 VM via dist:win installer. Known gaps (filed as follow-ups, not in this PR): - Skills not seeded on packaged installs (sync_skills only runs in cmd_chat, not cmd_dashboard). Need to move to shared pre-dispatch. - Git Bash not bundled or detected; agent's terminal tool errors out with a useful message but desktop bootstrapper should pre-flight it. - install.ps1 / install.sh should be decomposed into composable phase libraries so the desktop bootstrapper can reuse them as a single source of truth across all install surfaces. * feat(desktop): theme polish, prose chat typography, composer chrome - DS tokens/midground, Backdrop, scoped scrollbars, typography plugin + prose - Composer liquid/radius utilities, thread font parity, tool/thinking cues - File tree label scale, preview flex, thread retry loading + streaming tests * feat(desktop): NSIS prereq detection page + auto-install via winget The packaged Windows installer now detects Python 3.11+ and Git for Windows at install time and offers to install missing prereqs via winget. Mirrors the prereq logic scripts/install.ps1 already runs for CLI installs, so desktop installer users get the same out-of-the-box experience as install.ps1 users. Why - Hermes' terminal tool calls bash.exe directly (tools/environments/ local.py); on Windows that's Git Bash from Git for Windows. Without it, the agent fails on the first terminal() call. - Hermes' Python runtime needs 3.11+. Without it, the desktop bootstrapper errors out at venv creation. - Both gaps surfaced on a fresh Windows 11 VM smoke test: VM had Python pre-installed but no Git, so the agent's first terminal call failed with "Git Bash isn't installed." - install.ps1 has had Install-Git + Install-Uv functions for ages. The desktop installer was the asymmetric outlier. How — NSIS prereq page - New file: apps/desktop/installer/prereq-check.nsh (plugged into electron-builder via build.nsis.include) - Real Wizard page using nsDialogs, inserted via customPageAfterChangeDir hook (between the Directory page and InstFiles). - Group boxes for Python and Git, each showing detection status. - Pre-checked install checkboxes when winget is available. - Auto-skips silently if both prereqs are already installed. - Falls back to manual download URLs when winget itself is missing. - Detection: - Python: probes `py -3.11`/`-3.12`/`-3.13`/`-3.14` via the Python launcher. Microsoft Store "Python stub" (no py.exe) is correctly classified as not-installed. - Git: `where git`. - winget: `where winget` (Win10 1809+ / Win11 with App Installer). - Install execution (in customInstall macro): - Python: nsExec::ExecToLog with `--scope user --silent`. Per-user install, no UAC prompt, output streams to install log. - Git: ExecShellWait via Windows ShellExecute. Critical because Git always installs per-machine and triggers UAC; ShellExecute preserves the foreground focus chain across non-elevated → elevated process spawns, so UAC actually comes to the foreground. nsExec::ExecToLog breaks the chain because winget runs hidden. - Both pass `--disable-interactivity --accept-package-agreements --accept-source-agreements` to suppress winget's own dialogs. - Verification: probes Git's standard install locations via FileExists rather than `where git`. NSIS's process inherits PATH at startup, so a freshly-installed Git won't be visible to `where` until restart. - Silent installs (/S) skip the prompts; managed deploys handle prereqs out-of-band via Group Policy / Intune. How — Electron-side safety net - New findGitBash() in main.cjs, parallel to findSystemPython(). Probes the same locations as tools/environments/local.py:_find_bash() so a positive result here means the agent's terminal tool will work. - ensureRuntime now throws a clear, actionable error on Windows when Git Bash isn't found, matching the existing "Python 3.11+ is required" error path. - Catches users the NSIS page doesn't: .msi installer users (NSIS prereq page doesn't run for MSI), `npm run dev` users, manual installers, anyone who unchecked the install boxes on the NSIS prereq page. - All gated on `IS_WINDOWS`; macOS / Linux unaffected. NSIS build issue (resolved) - electron-builder defaults to `-WX` (warnings as errors). NSIS optimizer emits "warning 6010: function not referenced" for our page functions because Page custom directives don't count as references in its static-analysis pass. The functions ARE called at runtime when NSIS invokes the page; the optimizer just can't see it statically. - Set `build.nsis.warningsAsErrors=false` in package.json so this spurious warning doesn't fail the build. (Documented option from electron-builder's nsisOptions.) Out of scope (filed for future work) - MSI prereq detection: Windows Installer custom actions are a different mechanism. Enterprise deploys typically handle prereqs via GP/Intune. - Bundle PortableGit + python-build-standalone in extraResources for zero-network installs. ~80MB increase. - Mac / Linux GUI prereq flows (different installer formats; Xcode CLT covers most macOS prereqs already; Linux is per-distro hard). Files - apps/desktop/installer/prereq-check.nsh (new, ~290 lines NSIS) - apps/desktop/package.json (build.nsis.include + warningsAsErrors) - apps/desktop/electron/main.cjs (findGitBash + preflight) - apps/desktop/README.md (Runtime prerequisites section) Cross-platform impact - macOS / Linux builds (dist:mac, dist:mac:dmg, dist:mac:zip): nsis config is ignored entirely; .nsh is dormant. - npm run dev: .nsh dormant; main.cjs preflight gated on IS_WINDOWS. - scripts/install.ps1, scripts/install.sh: no reference to any new files; CLI install paths untouched. - Hermes CLI / dashboard / gateway: no reference; runtime untouched. - All checks: node --check on main.cjs and test-desktop.mjs pass; npm run test:desktop:platforms 4/4 passing; node --test green. Tested - npm run dist:win produces signed .exe and .msi without errors. - Fresh Win11 VM (Python pre-installed, no Git): prereq page renders, Python check shows detected, Git checkbox pre-checked. Click Next → Git installs via winget with UAC prompt in foreground. - After install completes, Hermes launches and the agent's terminal tool can run bash commands. Verified Git Bash is detected at `C:\Program Files\Git\bin\bash.exe` by ensureRuntime's preflight. * feat: theme changes, composer tweaks, in app update ux, finesse * fix(cli): seed bundled skills on dashboard + gateway entrypoints `sync_skills(quiet=True)` was only being called from inside `cmd_chat`, which meant `hermes dashboard` (the desktop GUI's backend) and `hermes gateway` (Telegram/Discord/Slack/etc daemons) never seeded the bundled skill library into ~/.hermes/skills/. This surfaced as "No skills found" in the desktop GUI's skills panel on fresh installs, despite the agent having access to the full bundled library when invoked via `hermes chat`. scripts/install.ps1 worked around it by running skills_sync.py as part of Copy-ConfigTemplates, but that's not part of the desktop installer's bootstrap chain. Fix - Extract the skills-sync block from cmd_chat into a module-level `_sync_bundled_skills_quietly()` helper. - Call the helper from cmd_chat (preserving existing behavior), cmd_dashboard (after the --status/--stop early-return paths and fastapi import check, so we don't run skills_sync on management commands or when deps aren't installed), and cmd_gateway. Why these three entrypoints - cmd_chat: the user's primary CLI entrypoint - cmd_dashboard: the desktop GUI's backend; this is what `hermes dashboard --tui` invokes when the desktop bootstrapper spawns Hermes - cmd_gateway: long-running daemons where the user expects the agent to have full skill access Other entrypoints (cmd_config, cmd_doctor, cmd_login, cmd_status, etc.) are management commands that don't need skill discovery and were never running skills_sync in the first place — leaving them alone. Idempotence - tools/skills_sync.py is manifest-based: skipped skills cost milliseconds. Calling it from multiple entrypoints adds no real cost, and users running `hermes chat` then `hermes dashboard` get two fast no-ops on the second call. Failure handling - Helper wraps skills_sync in try/except. Skills are an enhancement, not a hard dependency — Hermes runs fine with an empty skills/ dir. Files - hermes_cli/main.py: + new helper `_sync_bundled_skills_quietly()` at module level + cmd_chat: replace inline block with helper call + cmd_dashboard: add helper call after fastapi import succeeds + cmd_gateway: add helper call before delegating to gateway_command * feat(desktop): hoisted todo widget, JSON tool summaries, history grouping & timer fixes - Hoist todo to first-class widget (shadcn checkboxes, brand colors, no tool-accordion). Header derives label from active task; non-active rows fade. - Replace raw JSON dumps with structured key/value summaries via formatToolResultSummary; nested error extraction for clearer failures. - Fix loaded-session grouping: stitch interleaved assistant/tool iterations into one bubble instead of orphaned synthetic messages. - Stable tool/thinking timers via keyed registry so unmount/scroll doesn't reset elapsed counts; gate "running" on real live thread state. - Reorganize chat-only assistant-ui components under components/chat/. * fix(desktop): address CodeQL alerts on PR #20059 - settings/helpers.ts: harden setNested against prototype pollution. POLLUTING_PATH_PARTS check is now applied at every assignment site (loop + leaf) and uses Object.defineProperty so CodeQL can see the guard inline rather than via a helper function call. - lib/markdown-preprocess.ts: rebuild the dangling-fence close regex from a fence-char + length instead of marker.replace(...). The marker is captured by `(`{3,}|~{3,})` so it can only be backticks or tildes, but CodeQL was tracing tainted input text into the RegExp source and flagging hostname dots from input as part of the pattern (false positive js/incomplete-hostname-regexp on the test fixture URLs). Reconstructing from a literal char breaks the dataflow. - scripts/notarize-artifact.cjs: drop args from the run() rejection message. Args carry --key-id / --issuer / key file path; the existing outer catch already squashes errors to a generic line, but CodeQL was flagging the args.join(' ') as clear-text logging of APPLE_API_KEY_ID. Composer DOM-text-as-HTML alerts (composer/index.tsx:379, :547) are already addressed in 4dd9732a9 — innerHTML assignment was replaced with renderComposerContents which builds DOM via replaceChildren / append text nodes (no HTML interpretation). * fix(desktop): inline prototype-pollution guard so CodeQL sees it CodeQL's dataflow doesn't follow the helper-function guard inside `safeSet`, so it kept flagging Object.defineProperty as prototype- polluting. Inline the literal `__proto__`/`constructor`/`prototype` check at the assignment site to break the dataflow. Behavior unchanged — same set of disallowed keys, same throw. * feat(ui-tui): resolve links to readable page titles Mirror desktop pretty-link behavior in the TUI by resolving HTTP links to page titles with shared caching and safe fetch filters, plus slug-based fallbacks so chat links stay readable even when title fetch fails. * fix(desktop): drop RegExp from dangling-fence close detection Previous attempt tried to break the dataflow by reconstructing the close-fence regex from a literal char + marker.length, but CodeQL still traced marker.length back to input and kept flagging the test-fixture URLs as hostname-regex sources (js/incomplete-hostname-regexp). Replace `new RegExp(...)` + `closeRe.test(body)` with a string-only hasCloseFenceLine() helper that splits on '\n' and uses ===. No regex on this path now, so input data can no longer reach a RegExp source. Behavior preserved: matches lines that are (whitespace + marker + whitespace), which is what the original `\n[ \t]*${marker}[ \t]*(?=\n|$)` matched. All 12 markdown-text tests still pass. * fix(process-registry): suppress windows-footgun false positive on guarded killpg Keep the existing POSIX-only process-group teardown path, but make the signal selection explicit via getattr and add an inline windows-footgun suppression marker on the guarded os.killpg line so the Windows footgun check no longer blocks CI on this intentionally platform-gated code. * feat(desktop): reconcile live tool events, polish thread chrome, harden boot - chat-messages: match tool rows by overlapping query/context/preview values so preview-first `tool.progress` rows reliably adopt later stable-id `tool.start` payloads instead of spawning ghost rows or mis-merging parallel same-name calls; preserve prior args/result across phases. - tui_gateway: emit full args + parsed result on `tool.start` / `tool.complete`, drop redundant `tool.started` re-emit from `tool.progress`. - electron/main: prefer SOURCE_REPO_ROOT before PATH `hermes` in dev so local backend edits actually run; split hardening helpers into `electron/hardening.cjs` with tests. - thread/tool UI: one-shot enter animation keyed by stable ids, braille spinner for running rows, Cursor-like disclosure rows, drill-down + duration/count formatting via new tool-fallback-model. - composer: extract `text-utils`, drop liquid-glass overrides. - right-rail: split preview-pane into preview-console / preview-file. - runtime: incremental external-store runtime + runtime-readiness gate; onboarding store + tests; route-resume hook test. - regression tests for live tool reconciliation (parallel tools, id-less progress, preview-first rows, structured args/results). * feat(desktop): add ripgrep to NSIS prereq page + polish layout Add ripgrep as a third (recommended) prereq alongside Python and Git in the NSIS prereq detection page, and clean up the page layout based on on-VM testing. Why ripgrep - Hermes' search_files tool calls `rg` directly for content + filename search (tools/file_operations.py:1382). Falls back to grep/find from Git Bash when missing — works but slower and noisier (no .gitignore awareness). - ~5MB winget install via `BurntSushi.ripgrep.MSVC --scope user` — no UAC prompt, parallel to how Python installs. - scripts/install.ps1 already installs ripgrep as part of Install-SystemPackages; this brings the desktop installer to parity. Why "recommended" not "required" - Python and Git are hard requirements: without them the agent runtime or terminal tool refuses to start. The bootstrapper preflight throws. - ripgrep is a performance enhancement: missing it just means slower searches. Page wording reflects this; failure to install is logged but doesn't show a MessageBox or block. Layout polish (response to on-VM screenshot review) - Wizard header now correctly reads "System Requirements" instead of the leftover "Choose Install Location" from the previous page. Set via `GetDlgItem $HWNDPARENT 1037/1038` + WM_SETTEXT — the standard NSIS pattern for overriding the page header on a custom Page. - Removed redundant in-body title + verbose intro paragraph; the wizard header IS the title now. Body has one short intro line. - Group boxes tightened to 26u with content positioned just below the groupbox title (not top-anchored status + bottom-anchored checkbox with empty space in the middle). All three panels + footer fit comfortably in 126u, well under the 140u page limit. - Checkbox labels simplified: dropped "(per-user, no admin prompt)" and "(administrator approval required)" suffixes. The footer note still calls out UAC for Git when relevant. - Footer text trimmed to fit cleanly without clipping. Install order (in customInstall macro) - Python → ripgrep → Git - Python and ripgrep are silent and run first; Git's UAC prompt comes last so the user's approval interaction isn't interrupted by silent activity afterwards. Skip behavior unchanged - All three detected → page auto-skips via Abort - Silent install (/S) → customInstall winget block skips - User unchecks all → page advances without running winget Files - apps/desktop/installer/prereq-check.nsh: ripgrep detection block, ripgrep page panel + checkbox, ripgrep customInstall block, GetDlgItem header override, layout reflow - apps/desktop/README.md: Runtime prerequisites section updated to list ripgrep as recommended, with manual winget command * feat(desktop): add model-confirmation step to onboarding After OAuth/API-key login completes, onboarding now shows a confirmation card with the curated default model and a Change button before dropping the user into chat. Closes the gap where the desktop's `model.default` was empty after first launch and the agent had to fall back to whatever heuristic happened to fire — leaving users wondering "why am I getting sonnet-4 when I logged into Nous Portal?" Why - Desktop onboarding only persisted credentials, never `model.default`. The CLI's `hermes model` command pairs provider + model selection, but the desktop's onboarding skipped the model step entirely. - Result: users saw whichever model the agent's auto-fallback picked, unpredictably and undocumented. - For the BUILD demo we want users to land on the model they expect for their provider, with a clear "this is what you're getting" UI and a one-click path to change it before chatting. How - New `confirming_model` flow status carries the just-authenticated provider slug, current default model, label, and a saving flag. - `completeWithModelConfirm()` runs after credentials succeed: reloads env, verifies runtime, fetches /api/model/options to find the curated first-model for the provider, persists it via /api/model/set, then transitions into `confirming_model`. - If anything fails (no providers returned, network error), falls through to the previous behaviour — onboarding completes without the confirm step. Polish, not a hard requirement. - All four credential paths (device_code OAuth, PKCE OAuth, external CLI flow, API key) now use completeWithModelConfirm instead of reloadAndConnect. UI - `ConfirmingModelPanel` shows: green "<provider> connected" banner, card with "Default model: <name>" + Change button, and a "Start chatting" CTA that finalises onboarding. - Reuses the existing `ModelPickerDialog` (the same picker available from the chat shell) for the change-model UX. Search, filtering, multi-provider listing — all already built. - Stacking: ModelPickerDialog defaults to z-130, which renders UNDER the onboarding overlay (z-1300) and breaks pointer events. Added optional `contentClassName` prop to ModelPickerDialog so callers can override; onboarding passes `z-[1310]`. Provider-slug matching - For OAuth flows: pass `provider.id` directly as the preferred slug. - For API-key flows: `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` → "openrouter" via env-key prefix strip. Also includes the user-visible label as a fallback candidate. - fetchProviderDefaultModel falls back to the first authenticated provider in the response if no preferred slug matches — so even a miss still surfaces a reasonable default. Files - apps/desktop/src/store/onboarding.ts: + new `confirming_model` flow variant + fetchProviderDefaultModel + completeWithModelConfirm helpers + setOnboardingModel (optimistic update + revert on failure) + confirmOnboardingModel (finalises onboarding from the card) - reloadAndConnect (replaced; the four call sites now go through completeWithModelConfirm) - apps/desktop/src/components/desktop-onboarding-overlay.tsx: + ConfirmingModelPanel component + new branch in FlowPanel for status `confirming_model` + ModelPickerDialog usage with z-[1310] content class - apps/desktop/src/components/model-picker.tsx: + optional `contentClassName` prop on ModelPickerDialog so the dialog can be stacked on top of other fixed overlays Tested - `npm run type-check` passes - `npx eslint` clean on touched files - Live test in `npm run dev`: cleared onboarding cache, walked through Nous device-code flow, saw confirm card with curated default, clicked Change → ModelPickerDialog rendered above the onboarding overlay with working pointer events, picked a different model, "Start chatting" persisted to ~/.hermes/config.yaml. * fix(desktop): suppress generic provider warning in onboarding Hide the red setup notice when the message is the generic missing-provider guidance, since onboarding already presents provider auth actions. Centralize provider-setup matching across desktop hooks and add coverage for the matcher. * fix(desktop): add 2u clearance below prereq checkboxes Group box bottom border was clipping the checkboxes by 1-2px. Bumped each box height 26u→30u; checkboxes now sit 2u above the bottom border. * fix(nix): refresh dashboard lockfile hash Update the web npm deps hash in nix/web.nix to match the committed apps/dashboard/package-lock.json so bb/gui passes the nix lockfile check. * fix(desktop): install TUI deps in release workflow Ensure desktop release builds install the standalone ui-tui package before bundling the TUI payload. * fix(desktop): run release builder from app package Invoke the desktop builder through the package script so electron-builder uses apps/desktop/package.json. * fix(desktop): expand release artifact names safely Build desktop artifact names from workflow version/channel while preserving electron-builder platform macros. * fix(desktop): use package artifact naming in release workflow Let electron-builder's desktop package config provide platform-specific artifact extensions while the workflow injects the release version/channel metadata. * fix(nix): fetch dashboard npm deps from package root Point the dashboard npm dependency fetch at apps/dashboard so Nix can find the package lockfile after the dashboard move. * fix(nix): build dashboard from package directory Set the web package source root to apps/dashboard so npm patch/build phases run beside the dashboard lockfile while keeping apps/shared available as a sibling. * feat(desktop): render LaTeX math via KaTeX after streaming completes Add @streamdown/math plugin to the chat markdown renderer. Inline ($x^2$) and block ($$...$$) math both supported with singleDollarTextMath enabled. Plugin is gated to non-streaming state to match the existing pattern for syntax highlighting — math renders when the message completes, avoiding KaTeX re-render churn during streaming. KaTeX CSS is imported in styles.css; ~30KB CSS + ~430KB JS added to the bundle. Smoothness improvements during streaming deferred to a follow-up. * perf(desktop): memoize KaTeX renders so math streams without re-rendering Wrap rehype-katex with a per-equation LRU cache (keyed by displayMode + source text) and re-enable math during streaming. Stock @streamdown/math runs rehype-katex on every markdown commit, so each new token re-katexes every equation in the message. For math-heavy responses (an equation derived step-by-step) that's hundreds of ms of wasted work per token and the streaming UI chokes. With memoization, each equation pays katex.renderToString exactly once; subsequent tokens re-walk the tree but hit cache for unchanged equations. The wrapper mirrors rehype-katex's semantics exactly: same class detection (language-math, math-inline, math-display), same <pre>-walk-up for fenced math blocks, same parent.children.splice replacement, same SKIP traversal, same strict-then-lenient render strategy with VFile message reporting. Cached children are structuredCloned on each splice so downstream rehype plugins or toJsxRuntime can't mutate the cache. * fix(desktop): declare katex-memo deps directly + drop per-app lockfile katex-memo.ts (added in 112cad59b) imports hast-util-from-html-isomorphic, hast-util-to-text, remark-math, katex, and unist-util-visit-parents but those were never added to apps/desktop/package.json. They were silently resolving via @streamdown/math at the workspace root, which broke the moment `npm i --prefix apps/desktop` ran with the per-workspace lockfile because that install only consults apps/desktop/package.json. Add them as direct deps, plus unified/vfile/@types/hast for the type imports. Also delete apps/desktop/package-lock.json — root package.json declares workspaces: ["apps/*"], so npm manages all lockfile state at the root. The stale per-app lockfile is what made `npm i --prefix apps/desktop` diverge from the workspace install in the first place and left an empty apps/desktop/node_modules/@assistant-ui/ stub that Vite's dep optimizer then tried (and failed) to open at @assistant-ui/core/dist/internal.js. * feat(desktop): disable Backdrop noise overlay by default The noise overlay defaulted to on, which adds a busy speckle layer over the whole window for every new user. Flip the Leva default to off; the toggle stays in Backdrop / Noise for anyone who wants it back. * fix(desktop): polish LaTeX rendering — currency, code blocks, brackets Five distinct bugs surfaced from a math-heavy stress test: 1. Adjacent code fences glued together. scrubBacktickNoise's second-pass regex /``\s*``/g matched the LAST 2 backticks of one fence + whitespace + FIRST 2 backticks of the next, collapsing two blocks into one. Fixed with lookbehind/lookahead so we only match exactly 2 backticks not part of a longer run. 2. Whitespace eaten between fences and following content. stripPreviewTargets internally calls .trim() which strips leading/ trailing whitespace from each split-segment. For segments between two fences this collapsed \n\n to '', gluing fence close to next block. Fixed by capturing leading/trailing whitespace at the call site and restoring it after the transform. 3. Currency dollar signs eaten as math. With singleDollarTextMath:true remark-math greedy-matched any pair of $, so '$5 ... $10' became one inline math span. Added escapeCurrencyDollars to escape $<digit> patterns to \$<digit> in prose segments (not in code). Trade-off: math expressions starting with a digit (rare — '$5x = 10$') get escaped too. Mirrors the convention in ChatGPT/Claude's UIs. 4. \(...\) and \[...\] LaTeX brackets unsupported. Models often emit these instead of $...$ / $$...$$. Added rewriteLatexBracketDelimiters preprocessor pass. 5. ```latex / ```tex blocks were being routed to KaTeX via a rewrite to ```math. Aligns with GitHub markdown convention: ```math = render as math; ```latex / ```tex = LaTeX/TeX source code (syntax highlighted, not rendered). Conflating them broke teaching/showing-source use cases. MATH_FENCE_LANGUAGES pruned to {'math'} only. Also flipped parseIncompleteMarkdown to true (was !isStreaming) so the math parser can't see $ inside streaming-but-not-yet-closed code fences. Shiki was already deferred via defer={isStreaming} so this doesn't introduce new tokenization cost. Test: 18/18 existing tests still pass; one test updated to expect escaped \$ in currency-prose-with-URL case. * fix(desktop): detect Python via registry/filesystem; pin to 3.11–3.13 Two related fixes for Python detection on Windows: 1. py.exe (Python launcher) is missing from per-user installs that didn't check the launcher option, so 'py -3.X --version' alone misses real Python installs. User-reported case: clean Win11 + official Python.org 3.14 install -> 'where py' returned nothing, our installer offered to install Python again. Both NSIS prereq page and main.cjs now probe in this order: 1. py.exe launcher (when present) 2. PEP 514 registry: HKLM/HKCU\SOFTWARE\Python\PythonCore\<v>\InstallPath 3. Filesystem: %ProgramFiles%\Python<v>, %LocalAppData%\Programs\Python\Python<v> Crucially, we never fall back to running 'python.exe' from PATH on Windows — the WindowsApps stub at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\ WindowsApps\python.exe is a redirector that opens the Microsoft Store window if no Store Python is installed. Triggering that during boot would be terrible UX. Registry/filesystem probes never execute the binary. 2. Drop 3.14 from the supported version set. Several Hermes deps (notably pywinpty, which carries Rust crates like windows_x86_64_msvc) don't yet publish 3.14 wheels. With wheels missing, 'pip install -e .' falls back to building from sdist, which needs a Rust toolchain — users see 'could not compile windows_x86_64_msvc build script' on first run. install.ps1 sidesteps this by pinning to 3.11 via uv; the desktop installer doesn't yet have the same uv-managed-Python pathway, so for now we accept 3.11/3.12/3.13 and tell winget to install 3.11 if none of those are present. Revisit when the wheel ecosystem catches up to 3.14 (~early 2026). * feat(desktop): Cron, Profiles, usage analytics, and titlebar fixes - Add Cron and Profiles sidebar routes with full CRUD-style flows and API wiring. - Extend Command Center with auxiliary task overrides and a Usage panel (7d/30d/90d). - Fix titlebar geometry for WSL/Windows (native overlay width, tool spacing). - Remove stray merge conflict markers from pyproject.toml optional deps. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * fix(title-bar): position sidebar toggle button * feat(desktop): composer queue — queue many, edit/delete/cancel-edit, Cursor-style Press Enter while busy with a draft to queue it; with no draft to interrupt and send the next queued turn. Auto-drains one queued turn each time the session settles, same as Cursor. Queue persists across reloads so an interrupted-and-queued turn isn't lost on refresh. Each queued row supports edit-in-composer (with explicit Save/Cancel), send-now (↑), and delete. Drain skips only the entry currently being edited so the rest of the queue keeps flowing. Queue dequeue is transactional — an entry only leaves the queue after `prompt.submit` is accepted, so a rejected submit doesn't drop the turn. Also shrinks the `[interrupted]` marker to a muted one-liner and drops its assistant footer so it stops looking like a real reply. * fix(desktop): handle empty usage analytics totals Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * fix(desktop): address PR review titlebar and usage races Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * feat(desktop): add MCP settings and live subagent tree Surface configured MCP servers in Settings with JSON edit/save and a gateway-backed reload action so users can manage tool servers without falling back to slash commands. Track live subagent gateway events in a desktop store, show active subagent counts in the Agents statusbar item, and replace the Agents overlay stub with a live spawn tree for the active session. * fix(desktop): move power-user views out of sidebar Keep Cron and Profiles available through lower-prominence chrome entry points so the workspace sidebar stays focused on core chat navigation. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * refactor(desktop): subagent overlay reads like a live transcript, not a dashboard Strip the card chrome and rewire /agents to feel like peeking into the child agent's stream: - subagents store: single `stream` of typed entries (thinking/tool/progress/ summary) replaces the parallel notes/thinking/tools arrays. Drop unused fields (toolsets, depth, apiCalls, reasoningTokens, sessionId). - agents view: no OverlayCards, no boxed stream, no per-row borders. Goal + status pill + indented stream lines, full row width. - Group root spawns into "Delegation N" sections when batch shape + spawn time match — hides task-index interleaving and makes hierarchy obvious. - Sort tree by spawn time, then task_index. Step indicator is one colored pill (primary while running, emerald when done) inside the row, not a trailing pill that wrapped under the chevron. - Tree picks up `subagent.start` (not only `spawn_requested`) and prunes delegate-tool fallback rows once native subagent events land for the session — fixes duplicate "Delegated task" rows alongside the real ones. * feat(desktop): Esc closes every OverlayView-based overlay Lift the keyboard handler into the shared OverlayView so Agents, Settings, Command Center — and anything we build on top of it later — all dismiss on Esc by default. Nested Radix dialogs stop propagation themselves, so a modal opened inside an overlay (e.g. model picker inside Settings) still closes the modal first, not the overlay underneath. Drop the now-redundant Esc handlers in Settings (kept Cmd/Ctrl+P) and Command Center. * fix(desktop): drop numbered step pill on subagent rows The pill was getting clipped at the overlay edge anyway. Just use the status glyph (●/✓/✗/■/○) — the delegation header already conveys "3 workers, 3 active", and order in the list implies which step you're looking at. * fix(desktop): drop noisy "returned N items / empty object" stub strings When a tool returns nothing useful, the row should be silent — the title ("Search Files", etc.) already tells the user what happened. Counting the fields in an opaque payload is engineer-noise. `formatToolResultSummary` and `minimalValueSummary` now return '' for empty arrays / records / unrecognized values; tool-fallback already hides the detail section when its body is empty. * refactor(desktop): subagent rows borrow chat tool patterns (fade-in, lucide glyphs, shimmer) Pull the agents view closer to how chat tool blocks render: - statusGlyph() returns the same lucide BrailleSpinner / CheckCircle2 / AlertCircle vocabulary as tool-fallback's statusGlyph - Stream lines fade-in via useEnterAnimation (one-shot WAAPI), keyed per entry so streamed deltas settle in instead of popping - Subagent rows fade in too, and pick up the existing data-slot=tool-block spacing rules between blocks - Active stream line trails a BrailleSpinner instead of a hand-rolled pulsing rectangle - Goal text drops FadeText (which forces nowrap); keep FadeText only for the single-line meta subtitle - Running rows shimmer the title — same affordance the chat thinking row uses * refactor(desktop): make /agents subagent-only, drop sidebar + dead sections Activity rail and History stub were both noise. Strip the split layout, sidebar, route enum, and the rail/stub helpers — the overlay is now just the spawn tree, centered in a max-w-3xl column so it stops claiming the whole screen for one section's worth of content. * feat: update cron modals * Add dedicated GUI log stream for dashboard debugging. Capture dashboard and PTY websocket lifecycle failures in gui.log and expose it via hermes logs. * Improve desktop runtime UX by surfacing inference readiness in gateway status and hardening WSL link opening. This also stabilizes markdown code/table block spacing and adds root-install guards so desktop dev runs use a healthy workspace dependency tree. * Log detailed GUI websocket failure metadata. Capture richer reject/disconnect/send/parse context for dashboard gateway websocket flows so GUI connection failures are diagnosable from logs. * Default dashboard startup logging to GUI mode. Detect the dashboard subcommand during early CLI bootstrap so gui.log is attached from process start and GUI startup failures are always captured. * Clean up gateway status conditionals and logging bootstrap mode detection. Simplify nested dashboard gateway status branches for readability and use a concise first-subcommand check when selecting early GUI logging mode. * add logging to nsis installer * feat: glass ui pass * fix(desktop): persist inline assistant errors across hydrate/resume - Detect provider failure text arriving via message.complete (HTTP 4xx, "API call failed after N retries", Provider/Gateway error: ...) and persist as an inline assistant error instead of regular completion text, blocking the hydrate that was wiping it. - preserveLocalAssistantErrors: merge by id so same-id hydrated messages keep their local error, and preserve the optimistic user+error pair as a unit (with tail-user dedupe). - Hook all hydrate/resume writers (use-session-actions resume + fallback, hydrateFromStoredSession, syncSessionStateToView) into the merge so stale snapshots can't clobber a failed turn. - Add error to chatMessagesEquivalent so the resume diff actually sees error-only changes and paints them. - editMessage on a failed turn now submits a plain resend (no truncate_before_user_ordinal) and retries plainly on the "no longer in session history" race. Style polish on touched files: - Inline error: text-only treatment (no card). - User stop / edit-composer send: shared Tabler IconPlayerStopFilled glyph + shared icon-button class slot for parity. * feat(desktop): theme xterm with active light/dark mode The right-sidebar terminal hardcoded a light palette, which read poorly on the dark glass surface. Subscribe to `useTheme().resolvedMode` and hot-swap `term.options.theme` so Shift+X (and any other mode change) updates the terminal in place without tearing down the PTY session. Dark mode uses xterm's built-in defaults (white fg/cursor + vivid ANSI 16) with just a transparent background so the glass shows through; light mode keeps the existing hand-tuned overrides for legibility on a bright surface. * feat(sidebar): right-click + drag-reorder sessions and workspaces - Wire right-click on session rows to open the same actions menu; suppresses the OS-native context menu so Windows stops looking awful. - Share dropdown + context menu items via useSessionActions() driving a single declarative ItemSpec[]; render polymorphic over MenuItem. - New shadcn ContextMenu primitive mirroring DropdownMenu styling. - Restore drag-and-drop reordering for Agents (lost during the cwd cleanup) and add reordering of workspace groups via a right-side grab handle. Pinned reorder unchanged. - Generic orderByIds<T> replaces the duplicated session/group orderers; useSortableBindings() hook collapses the two Sortable wrappers. - cursor-pointer on every actionable element; cursor-grab on handles. - KISS pass: baseName() helper, AGE_TICKS table, single WORKSPACE_PAGE constant, flatter SidebarSessionsSection render. * feat(desktop): solarize the xterm palette in both light & dark xterm's default ANSI 16 is tuned for dark and reads candy-bright on the light glass surface (vivid cyans/greens). Ship the canonical Solarized palette (Schoonover) for both modes — same 16 accents either way, only fg/cursor swap between `base00/01` (light) and `base0/1` (dark), so a prompt's colors look uniform across a Shift+X toggle. Background stays transparent in both modes — Solarized's cream/slate backgrounds would fight the glass. * feat(desktop): virtualize chat thread + sidebar via TanStack Virtual Replaces `use-stick-to-bottom` and per-row session rendering with `@tanstack/react-virtual`, matching what Cursor uses. Chat thread (`thread-virtualizer.tsx`): - Natural-flow virtualization (padding spacers, not absolute items) so `position: sticky` on the human bubble still resolves cleanly against the scroller. - Custom at-bottom anchor: pins when armed, disarms on user-driven upward scroll, re-arms at bottom, jumps on session switch + `thread.runStart`. - Loading indicator and `--thread-last-message-clearance` move to a real `[data-slot=aui_composer-clearance]` node; drops the brittle `:nth-last-child(1 of …)` rule that can't fire reliably under virtualization. Sidebar (`virtual-session-list.tsx`): - Flat agents list virtualizes at >=25 rows; pinned and workspace-grouped paths stay direct-render. - `SortableContext` keeps all IDs; only the window mounts; dnd-kit's `setNodeRef` is merged with `virtualizer.measureElement` so rows participate in both DnD hit-testing and TanStack measurement. Drops `use-stick-to-bottom`. Streaming test gets a global `offsetWidth/offsetHeight` stub so the virtualizer's viewport sizing works in jsdom; the scroll-up-doesn't-pull-back invariant still passes. * feat: more ui qa * fix(desktop): trim sidebar terminal startup spacer Drop zsh's initial spacer row before writing the first terminal prompt so new sidebar terminal sessions do not open with a selectable blank line. * chore: uptick * feat(desktop): thin installer + first-launch install.ps1 bootstrap Converges the Windows packaged desktop installer onto a single canonical install topology: drop the Electron shell only (~80MB instead of ~500MB), clone Hermes Agent at a build-time-pinned commit on first launch via install.ps1's stage protocol, and treat the resulting git checkout at %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\hermes-agent\ as the canonical install location (same path the CLI installer uses). Future updates flow through the existing applyUpdates() git-pull path. Replaces the previous fat-installer architecture where the .exe bundled a pre-staged hermes-agent source tree under resources/hermes-agent/ that was then sync'd into ACTIVE_HERMES_ROOT at launch -- a complicated factory-vs-active dance with several footguns (FACTORY_HERMES_ROOT mismatch on path resolve, isGitCheckout guard regressions, pyproject hash drift detection inside the sync loop). Architecture overview --------------------- Build time apps/desktop/scripts/write-build-stamp.cjs writes apps/desktop/build/install-stamp.json with {commit, branch, builtAt, dirty}. Honours $GITHUB_SHA / $GITHUB_REF_NAME in CI, falls back to `git rev-parse HEAD` locally. apps/desktop/scripts/stage-native-deps.cjs copies the runtime subset of @homebridge/node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch from the workspace-root node_modules into apps/desktop/build/native-deps/. Workspace dedup hoists this dep to the root, out of reach of electron-builder's `files:`-restricted collector; staging gives us a deterministic path to extraResources. electron-builder ships both into resources/install-stamp.json and resources/native-deps/ respectively. Boot resolver (electron/main.cjs) Resolver order: 1. HERMES_DESKTOP_HERMES_ROOT override 2. SOURCE_REPO_ROOT (dev mode) 3. ACTIVE_HERMES_ROOT git checkout WITH .hermes-bootstrap-complete marker -- the post-install fast path 4. `hermes` on PATH (CLI-installed user adding the desktop) 5. pip-installed hermes_cli via system Python 6. bootstrap-needed sentinel -> hand off to runBootstrap Deletes the entire FACTORY_HERMES_ROOT / RUNTIME_MARKER / syncTreeExcludingVenv machinery (-200 lines). The isGitCheckout guard that bit us in the install.ps1 PR is gone. First-launch bootstrap (electron/bootstrap-runner.cjs) 1. Resolve install.ps1: prefer SOURCE_REPO_ROOT/scripts (dev), else download from GitHub raw at INSTALL_STAMP.commit (cached at HERMES_HOME\bootstrap-cache\install-<sha>.ps1). 2. Fetch the stage manifest via install.ps1 -Manifest -Commit X -Branch Y. 3. Iterate stages: install.ps1 -Stage <name> -NonInteractive -Json -Commit X -Branch Y per stage. 4. On all stages green: write the .hermes-bootstrap-complete marker with {schemaVersion, pinnedCommit, pinnedBranch, completedAt, desktopVersion}. Per-run log to HERMES_HOME\logs\bootstrap-<ts>.log. Cancellation via AbortSignal. Manifest cache so retries don't re-download. Install overlay (src/components/desktop-install-overlay.tsx) Mounted alongside the existing onboarding overlay; flexbox card with header (static) + middle (scrollable) + footer (failure-only, static). Subscribes to hermes:bootstrap:event IPC + resyncs from hermes:bootstrap:get on mount/reload. Renders: - 14-stage checklist with per-stage state icons - Overall progress bar + current-stage spotlight - Auto-expanded installer-output panel on failure - "Copy output" button (full ring buffer + error to clipboard) - "Reload and retry" wired through hermes:bootstrap:reset to clear main.cjs's latched failure Synthetic empty-manifest event from main.cjs flips the overlay to 'active' immediately so the slow install.ps1 download doesn't leave the user staring at the generic Preparing splash. Failure latching (main.cjs) bootstrapFailure module-scope variable holds the rejection after install.ps1 fails. startHermes() throws the latched error immediately when set, bypassing the entire ensureRuntime + runBootstrap chain. Without this, the renderer's ensureGatewayOpen retries would re-run install.ps1 in a 5-10 min hot loop while the user was still reading the failure overlay. Cleared via hermes:bootstrap:reset on user-driven retry. Unsupported-platform overlay (1F) macOS / Linux packaged builds (no install.sh stage protocol yet) emit an unsupported-platform event with a copy-pasteable install command + docs URL. Dedicated overlay branch with "Copy command" + "I've run it -- retry" buttons. install.ps1 additions (Phase 1F.3 + 1F.5) ----------------------------------------- New -Commit and -Tag string params. Precedence Commit > Tag > Branch. Honoured by all three code paths (update / fresh clone / ZIP fallback), with archive URL selection that handles each ref-type variant. Detached-HEAD checkouts intentionally -- they're pins, not branches the user pulls into. EAP=Continue wrap around the new pin-step git invocations. `git fetch origin <commit>` writes the routine 'From <url>' info line to stderr; under the script's global EAP=Stop that terminates the script even though fetch+checkout succeed. Matches the established pattern in Install-Uv, Test-Python, _Run-NpmInstall. Backend fix (hermes_cli/web_server.py) -------------------------------------- CORS allow_origin_regex now accepts Origin: 'null'. Packaged Electron loads index.html via file://; Chromium sets the WebSocket upgrade Origin header to the opaque origin 'null', which the old regex rejected with HTTP 403 before gateway_ws() ever ran. This failure mode was masked in the older FACTORY_HERMES_ROOT architecture because the resolver often found an existing hermes on PATH with different binding behavior. Security maintained: localhost-only bind keeps cross-machine pages out; per-process session token still gates every authenticated /api/ endpoint regardless of Origin. Desktop QoL ----------- DevTools is now enabled in packaged builds (F12 / Cmd+Opt+I). Field-debugging trade-off: tiny attack surface increase versus a much better support story when CSP / WS / theme issues surface. NSIS prereq-check page deleted (-767 lines). The standard Welcome -> License -> Directory -> InstallFiles -> Finish wizard now installs without custom Python/Git/ripgrep detection -- those prereqs are install.ps1's job at first launch. Test infrastructure (Phase 1G) ------------------------------ apps/desktop/scripts/test-desktop.mjs rewritten as a cross-platform bundle validator (was darwin-only and asserted on dead factory- payload paths): NEGATIVE: hermes_cli/main.py is NOT shipped (regression guard) POSITIVE: install-stamp.json carries a real commit + branch POSITIVE: node-pty native deps shipped under resources/native-deps POSITIVE: renderer dist/index.html reachable (asar or unpacked) New nsis mode and npm run test:desktop:nsis script. Validated end-to-end on clean Win10 VM -------------------------------------- Confirmed: NSIS installer drops Electron shell, app launches, install overlay shows progress, install.ps1 clones the pinned commit, 14 stages run to completion, marker written, backend spawns, WebSocket connects, onboarding overlay asks for API key, main UI loads, integrated terminal works. Failures handled: bootstrap stays failed (no hot-loop retry), "Copy output" gives actionable transcript, "Reload and retry" explicitly re-runs install.ps1. What's deferred --------------- - MSIX wrapping (Phase 2): same Electron .exe under MSIX manifest with runFullTrust, signed and submitted to Microsoft Store. - install.sh stage protocol parity (Phase 2): once shipped, the unsupported-platform overlay becomes drive-it-yourself and macOS/Linux packaged installers gain feature parity with Windows. * feat(desktop): persistent terminal pane + fullscreen takeover Adds a VSCode-style "focus terminal" toggle to the right sidebar's Terminal tab that takes over the chat pane area without unmounting the shell. The xterm host is mounted once at the layout root and CSS-overlayed onto whichever <TerminalSlot /> is currently active, so the PTY session, scrollback, selection, focus, and WebGL renderer survive every toggle. Also: - WebGL renderer (matching dashboard ChatPage) so Hermes' TUI skins paint faithfully instead of muting through xterm's default DOM renderer - File drag/drop from the project tree or OS into xterm — paths are shell-quoted (zsh/bash/pwsh/cmd) and written straight into the PTY - Solarized dark canvas with brights promoted to real accent variants (Schoonover's UI-gray brights washed out every TUI accent) - Strip NO_COLOR/FORCE_COLOR/COLORFGBG/TERM=dumb leaking from non-tty parents (CI runners, Cursor's agent shell) so the embedded shell gets truecolor regardless of how Electron was launched - rAF-debounced ResizeObserver — running fit.fit() synchronously during sibling pane transitions crashed the WebGL texture-atlas rebuild * fix(install.ps1): strip UTF-8 BOM regression that broke 'irm | iex' The canonical install flow irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/.../scripts/install.ps1 | iex fails on PowerShell 5.1 with a cascade of 'The assignment expression is not valid' errors at every param() default value: [string]$Branch = 'main', ~~~~~~ The assignment expression is not valid. The input to an assignment operator must be an object that is able to accept assignments... Root cause: scripts/install.ps1 carries a UTF-8 BOM (0xEF 0xBB 0xBF) as its first three bytes. 'irm' returns the response body as a string; on PS 5.1 the BOM survives into that string as a leading \ufeff character. 'iex' then evaluates the string and PS's parser chokes on the invisible character before param() -- error recovery proceeds into the body but every assignment is reported as broken. This was the exact failure mode the install.ps1 hardening pass (PR #27224) deliberately fixed by stripping the BOM and ensuring the file body is pure ASCII. Commit |

fix(anthropic): demote dead thinking signature when orphan-strip mutates the latest turn
Extended-thinking Claude models (4.6+, e.g. Opus 4.8) emit a signed `thinking`
block on assistant turns that also carry parallel `tool_use` blocks. Anthropic
signs that block against the full, original turn content.
When a parallel tool batch is interrupted before every `tool_result` returns,
`_strip_orphaned_tool_blocks` removes the unanswered `tool_use` on replay — which
mutates the turn. The latest-assistant branch of `_manage_thinking_signatures`
then replays the now-stale signed thinking block verbatim, and Anthropic rejects
the request with a non-retryable HTTP 400:
messages.N.content.M: `thinking` or `redacted_thinking` blocks in the latest
assistant message cannot be modified. These blocks must remain as they were
in the original response.
Because the poisoned turn is rebuilt from the persisted store every turn, the
gateway crash-loops with no self-recovery (a soft session reset does not clear
it). The drifting content index in the error is the changing count of stripped
`tool_use` blocks across rebuilds.
Fix: when orphan-stripping removes a `tool_use` from a turn that also holds a
thinking/redacted_thinking block, flag the turn. `_manage_thinking_signatures`
then demotes every thinking block on that latest turn to a plain text block
(preserving the reasoning text) instead of replaying a signature that can no
longer validate. An intact turn is unaffected — its signed thinking is still
replayed verbatim. The internal flag is stripped before the payload is sent.
Adds two regression tests:
- demotion when an orphaned parallel tool_use is stripped
- control: signed thinking preserved verbatim when nothing is stripped

fix(compressor): strip stale handoff prefix on resume; reconcile #26290+#32787 (#35344)
A handoff persisted under an older SUMMARY_PREFIX can be inherited into a resumed lineage. _strip_summary_prefix only matched the current/legacy literal, so on re-compaction the old 'resume exactly from Active Task' directive stayed embedded in the body and kept hijacking replies to new, unrelated user messages. - Add _HISTORICAL_SUMMARY_PREFIXES (pre-#35344 prefix) and strip/recognize them in _strip_summary_prefix + _is_context_summary_content so resumed stale handoffs are re-normalized to the current latest-message-wins prefix. - Reconcile the overlapping Active Task template edits from the salvaged #26290 (reverse-signal cancellation) and #32787 (capture open questions / decisions, don't write None too eagerly) — both intents kept. - Regression coverage in tests/agent/test_resume_stale_active_task.py. - AUTHOR_MAP entries for both salvaged contributors. |

fix(compression): drop conflicting 'resume Active Task' directive in summary prefix
SUMMARY_PREFIX previously contained two contradictory directives:
1. "treat it as background reference, NOT as active instructions"
"Do NOT answer questions or fulfill requests mentioned in this summary"
"Respond ONLY to the latest user message that appears AFTER this summary"
2. "Your current task is identified in the '## Active Task' section of the
summary — resume exactly from there."
When the latest user message contradicted Active Task (e.g. 'stop the
i18n refactor', 'never mind, look at grafana instead'), models tended to
follow (2) anyway because 'resume exactly' is a strong, unambiguous
directive — leading to repeated re-surfacing of already-cancelled work
across turns, even after explicit 'stop'/'don't keep bringing that up'
messages from the user.
This change:
- Removes the conflicting 'resume exactly from Active Task' clause.
- Makes the precedence explicit: latest user message is the single source
of truth; it WINS on conflict; cancelled Active Task / In Progress /
Pending User Asks / Remaining Work must be discarded entirely (no
'wrap up the old task first').
- Names canonical reverse signals (stop, undo, roll back, never mind,
just verify, topic change) so the model recognizes them as cancellation
triggers, not background context.
- Updates the summarizer template instruction so the LLM doesn't
mechanically copy a cancelled task into Active Task on the next
compaction (it's instructed to copy the reverse signal verbatim).
- Preserves: REFERENCE ONLY framing, MEMORY.md/USER.md authority, and
the 'don't repeat work already reflected in session state' clause.
Adds tests/agent/test_summary_prefix_semantics.py to pin invariants so
the conflict can't regress.
Tested:
- All compaction tests pass: tests/agent/test_context_compressor.py,
tests/agent/test_context_compressor_summary_continuity.py,
tests/run_agent/test_413_compression.py,
tests/run_agent/test_compression_persistence.py,
tests/run_agent/test_compression_boundary_hook.py,
tests/cli/test_manual_compress.py — 117/117 passing.
- Tested on macOS.

test(auxiliary): e2e routing assertions for custom-provider aux resolution
Adds two real-client tests on top of the salvaged #34783 fix: - config-less custom:<name> endpoint routes via the carried live base_url (guards the #34777 symptom directly, not just the wiring) - named custom:<name> WITH a config entry still resolves via the named-custom branch (regression guard against collapsing to bare custom) |

fix(auxiliary): pass base_url/api_key/api_mode through set_runtime_main for custom providers
When a user configures a custom: provider (e.g. custom:openclaw-router), set_runtime_main() only stored provider and model in process-local globals. _resolve_auto() then had no base_url or api_key for the custom endpoint, causing Step 1 to fail and auxiliary tasks (approval, compression, title generation) to fall through to the aggregator chain and route to wrong providers. Fix: extend set_runtime_main() to accept base_url, api_key, and api_mode keyword arguments; store them in new globals alongside the existing provider and model; fall back to these globals in _resolve_auto() when the main_runtime dict is empty. The call site in conversation_loop.py now passes all five fields from the agent object. Fixes #34777 |

test: remove low-value model-catalog mirror tests
These tests asserted that hardcoded curated model lists/constants still
contained specific model strings (e.g. 'glm-5' in provider_model_ids('zai'),
exact context-length values per model key, PROVIDER_TO_MODELS_DEV entries).
They mirror a constant rather than exercise logic, so they only ever break
when models are added/retired and never catch a real bug.
Removed 22 such functions across 7 files (149 deletions, 0 additions).
Behavioral siblings are kept: live-catalog-wins, fallback ordering,
substring/longest-match resolution, normalization, credential discovery,
and probe-tier stepping all still tested.

fix(auxiliary): stop capping output with max_tokens by default (#34530) (#34845)
* fix(auxiliary): stop capping output with max_tokens by default Auxiliary LLM calls (compression, titles, vision, etc.) no longer send max_tokens on the OpenAI-compatible chat-completions path. Most providers treat an omitted max_tokens as "use the model max", which is what we want; an explicit cap only risks truncation or a wire-format 400. This was surfaced by GitHub Copilot / GPT-5 (#34530): those models reject max_tokens and require max_completion_tokens, so compression 400'd and fell back to a static context marker. Omitting the param sidesteps that quirk (and ZAI vision's error 1210) entirely. The Anthropic Messages wire (MiniMax + /anthropic endpoints) keeps max_tokens because it is a mandatory field there. * test(auxiliary): update temperature-retry assertions for omitted max_tokens The temperature-retry tests asserted retry_kwargs["max_tokens"] == 500 on an api.openai.com endpoint. Now that auxiliary calls omit max_tokens on OpenAI-compatible endpoints (#34530), that key is absent. Assert it's absent in both first and retry kwargs and use model as the survives-the-retry witness. |

feat(video_gen): wire Nous subscription override into hermes tools UX
Add the same managed-gateway UX that image_gen already has: - TOOL_CATEGORIES['video_gen'] gets a 'Nous Subscription' provider row with managed_nous_feature='video_gen' + video_gen_plugin_name='fal' - NousSubscriptionFeatures gains a video_gen property + feature state computation (managed/active/available using the fal-queue gateway) - _GATEWAY_TOOL_LABELS, _GATEWAY_DIRECT_LABELS, _ALL_GATEWAY_KEYS, _get_gateway_direct_credentials, opted_in all include video_gen - apply_nous_managed_defaults and apply_gateway_defaults handle video_gen - _is_toolset_satisfied checks Nous features for video_gen - _is_provider_active detects managed video_gen (use_gateway + fal provider) - _select_plugin_video_gen_provider accepts use_gateway kwarg, propagated from all 4 call sites in _configure_provider when managed_feature is set - hermes setup status shows 'Video Generation (FAL via Nous subscription)' Users on a Nous subscription can now pick 'Nous Subscription' under hermes tools → Video Generation, which sets video_gen.provider=fal + video_gen.use_gateway=true. The FAL plugin's _resolve_managed_fal_video_gateway then routes through the managed queue gateway — no FAL_KEY needed. |

feat: embedder environment-hint hook for the system prompt (#34574)
* fix(security): block AWS SDK creds from subprocess env * fix(security): narrow Bedrock subprocess strip to inference bearer token only Scopes the AWS_SDK subprocess strip down from the full AWS credential chain to just AWS_BEARER_TOKEN_BEDROCK — the only Hermes-managed *inference* secret (analogous to OPENAI_API_KEY). The general AWS credential chain (AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID / AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY / AWS_SESSION_TOKEN / AWS_PROFILE / config + role pointers) is intentionally left inheritable. Why: per SECURITY.md §3.2 the local terminal is the user's trusted operator shell. Hard-blocklisting the general chain would (a) regress *every* user who runs aws/terraform/cdk/boto3 in the agent terminal — not just Bedrock users, since PROVIDER_REGISTRY is iterated unconditionally at import — and (b) be unrecoverable, because env_passthrough.py refuses to re-allow anything in _HERMES_PROVIDER_ENV_BLOCKLIST (GHSA-rhgp-j443-p4rf). The narrow strip closes the reported leak (opencode enumerating the Bedrock catalog off the leaked bearer token) with no capability loss. Keeps zapabob's self-healing auth_type=="aws_sdk" mechanism so any future SDK-cred provider is covered automatically. Tests: bearer token stripped + general chain preserved (no-regression guard), on both the runtime strip path and the blocklist-membership path. Co-authored-by: zapabob <1920071390@campus.ouj.ac.jp> * feat: embedder environment-hint hook for the system prompt Adds HERMES_ENVIRONMENT_HINT env var (and config.yaml agent.environment_hint) so a host wrapping Hermes (sandbox runner, managed platform) can describe the runtime environment — proxy, credential handling, mount layout — in the system prompt's environment-hints block, without editing the identity slot (SOUL.md). Read once at prompt-build time, so it lands in the stable, cache-safe portion of the system prompt. Env var overrides the config key (build-time/container mechanism). Empty by default — no behavior change for existing installs. --------- Co-authored-by: zapabob <1920071390@campus.ouj.ac.jp> |

fix(codex): relax no-byte TTFB watchdog default from 12s to 120s
The chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex endpoint can spend tens of seconds in backend admission / prompt prefill before emitting its first SSE event. The 12s no-byte TTFB cutoff aborted those still-valid streams, surfacing as 'Codex stream produced no bytes within 12s' through all retries (Discord reports). The OpenAI SDK's own streaming read timeout is 600s, so 12s was ~50x more aggressive than the transport layer would have tolerated. Default the no-byte cutoff to 120s and raise the openai-codex MAX cap default to 120s so it no longer clamps the new default back to 20s. Disabling stays available via HERMES_CODEX_TTFB_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=0; the 25k-token auto-disable, _STRICT override, and post-first-event idle watchdog are unchanged.

fix(compression): fail open when lock subsystem is missing (version skew) (#34475)
A process running mismatched module versions — conversation_compression.py re-imported with the post-#34351 lock code while a long-lived hermes_state.SessionDB stays bound to the pre-#34351 class in memory — has the try_acquire_compression_lock call site but not the method. The AttributeError it raises is NOT a sqlite3.Error, so the method's own fail-open guard never runs; the exception escapes to the outer agent loop, which prints the error and retries. Compression never succeeds, the token count never drops, and the loop re-triggers compaction forever (the 'API call #47/#48/#49 ... has no attribute try_acquire_compression_lock' spin a user hit after an update). Wrap the lock acquire so any unexpected exception fails OPEN: skip locking and proceed with compression. Skipping the lock risks a rare concurrent-compression session fork; an infinite no-progress loop that never compresses at all is strictly worse. The remediation hint in the log points at the real fix (restart / hermes update to resync the stale module). Also guards get_compression_lock_holder against the same skew. Adds a regression test simulating the version skew (real SessionDB wrapped so only the lock methods raise AttributeError) — asserts _compress_context proceeds and rotates instead of raising. |

fix(auth): don't launch a text-mode browser inside the terminal for OAuth (#34479)
OAuth auto-open only checked _is_remote_session() (SSH + cloud-shell env vars). On a headless/CLI-only Linux box with no GUI browser, none of those trip, so webbrowser.open() resolved to a console browser (w3m/lynx/links) and launched it INSIDE the terminal — hijacking the user's TTY with the xAI 'Account Management' login page instead of letting them copy the URL. Add _can_open_graphical_browser(): returns False when webbrowser would resolve to a known console browser, when $BROWSER names one, when there's no display server on Linux, or when no browser resolves at all. Gate all 5 OAuth auto-open callsites (xAI loopback, Spotify loopback, MiniMax device code, Anthropic, Google) on it in addition to the existing remote check. Headless boxes now print the URL / fall through to manual-paste instead. |

fix(auxiliary): detect xAI OAuth 403 bad-credentials as auth error
xAI returns HTTP 403 (not 401) with unauthenticated:bad-credentials when an OAuth2 access token has expired or is invalid. The existing _is_auth_error() only checked for 401 status codes, so these tokens were never refreshed and the 403 propagated as a generic permission denied error. Three fixes: 1. _is_auth_error: Recognize xAI's 403+bad-credentials pattern as an auth failure, triggering token refresh instead of silent failure. 2. _refresh_provider_credentials: Add xai-oauth branch with pool-level refresh (try_refresh_current with select to ensure current entry) then fallback to singleton resolver with force_refresh=True. 3. _recoverable_pool_provider: Map api.x.ai host to xai-oauth pool for auto-resolved providers, matching existing pattern for openai-codex/openrouter/nous/anthropic. Includes 14 tests covering the new detection logic, host mapping, and graceful fallback behavior. Signed-off-by: moikapy <moikapy@devmoi.com> |

fix(credential-pool): STATUS_DEAD for terminal OAuth failures (#32849) (#34412)
When OpenAI Codex returns 401 token_invalidated or token_revoked, the credential is broken upstream — retrying after a TTL cooldown cannot fix it. The existing code treated every 401/429 the same way: STATUS_EXHAUSTED with a TTL cooldown (5 min for 401, 1 hour for 429). After the TTL elapsed, the broken credential re-entered rotation and immediately failed again with the same 401, surfacing as 'Failed to generate context summary' on every context-compression cycle. Reporter observed 7 separate 401 token_invalidated failures from the same revoked credential in a single day; the only workaround was removing it manually via 'hermes auth'. Add a STATUS_DEAD terminal state. Only 401 responses whose error.code/reason matches a known terminal OAuth state (token_invalidated, token_revoked, invalid_token, invalid_grant, unauthorized_client, refresh_token_reused) transition to DEAD. Everything else keeps the existing TTL semantics — 429 rate limits are transient and should recover. DEAD entries are excluded from rotation unconditionally. They only clear when an explicit write-side re-auth sync rewrites the tokens (the existing _sync_codex_pool_entries / _sync_*_entry_from_auth_store paths already clear last_status to None). The read-side auth.json-sync paths also now fire on DEAD so an in-flight pool entry can adopt fresh tokens written by another process without needing explicit re-auth. After 24 hours, DEAD manual entries (source='manual:*') are pruned from the pool automatically so dead state doesn't accumulate forever. Singleton-seeded DEAD entries (source='device_code' etc.) are kept because _seed_from_singletons would recreate them on the next load with the same stale tokens — pruning would be pointless. The audit trail stays visible (label, last_error_reason, timestamps). Closes #32849. |

chore: prune unused imports and duplicate import redefinitions
Remove unused imports (F401) and duplicate/shadowed import redefinitions (F811) across the codebase using ruff's safe autofixes. No behavioral changes -- imports only. - ~1400 safe autofixes applied across 644 files (net -1072 lines) - __init__.py re-exports preserved (excluded from F401 removal so public re-export surfaces stay intact) - Re-exports that are imported or monkeypatched by tests but look unused in their defining module are kept with explicit # noqa: F401 (gateway/run.py load_dotenv; run_agent re-exports from agent.message_sanitization, agent.context_compressor, agent.retry_utils, agent.prompt_builder, agent.process_bootstrap, agent.codex_responses_adapter) - Unsafe F841 (unused-variable) fixes deliberately skipped -- those can change behavior when the RHS has side effects - ruff lints remain disabled in pyproject.toml (only PLW1514 is selected); this is a one-time cleanup, not a config change Verification: - python -m compileall: clean - pytest --collect-only: all 27161 tests collect (zero import errors) - core entry points import clean (run_agent, model_tools, cli, toolsets, hermes_state, batch_runner, gateway) - static scan: every name any test imports directly from an edited module still resolves |

feat(prompt): universal task-completion guidance + local Python toolchain probe (#34340)
* fix(codex): surface error code in Responses 'failed' status errors
When a Codex Responses turn ends with status=failed, the response carries
the failure details under `response.error` as
`{code, message, param, ...}`. The previous extractor pulled only
`message`, so users seeing a rate-limit failure got a bare "Slow down"
string indistinguishable from a generic stream truncation; an
internal_error with empty message degraded to a dict dump
("{'code': 'internal_error', 'message': ''}").
Extract a `_format_responses_error()` helper that:
- prefixes `code` when both code and message are present
(e.g. 'rate_limit_exceeded: Slow down')
- falls back to the bare `code` when message is empty
- accepts both dict and attribute-style payloads (SDK and JSON-RPC paths)
- preserves the prior status-only fallback when no error payload exists
Apply the same helper at the sibling site in
`codex_app_server_session.run_turn()` so codex-CLI subprocess turn
failures get the same treatment.
Tests:
- 8 new unit tests for `_format_responses_error` covering both shapes,
empty/missing fields, non-string fields, and the status-only fallback.
- 2 regression tests on `_normalize_codex_response` for failed status
with and without a code, asserting the exact RuntimeError message.
- All 3603 tests in tests/agent/ pass.

* feat(prompt): universal task-completion guidance + local Python toolchain probe
Two cross-model failure modes get a single-line answer in the cached
system prompt. Both gated by config (default on), both add zero overhead
when not needed, both verified via real AIAgent prompt builds.
## What changed
`TASK_COMPLETION_GUIDANCE` — short prompt block applied to ALL models.
Targets two failure modes observed on a real Sarasota real-estate build
task: (1) Opus stopped after writing an 85-byte stub and gave a prose
response with finish_reason=stop on call #3 of 90; (2) DeepSeek pushed
through a PEP-668 wall, then returned fabricated listings instead of
admitting the blocker. Both behaviors are model-family-agnostic, so the
guidance lives outside the existing tool_use_enforcement gate (~192
tokens, paid once per session via prefix cache).
`tools/env_probe.py` — local Python toolchain probe. Detects
python3/pip/uv/PEP-668 state and emits ONE short line in the system
prompt when something is non-default. Emits NOTHING when the env is
clean (zero token cost for normal users). Skipped entirely for remote
terminal backends (docker/modal/ssh) — they have their own probe.
Example output on a broken environment (the actual case):
Python toolchain: python3=3.11.15 (no pip module),
python=missing (use python3), pip→python3.12 (mismatch),
PEP 668=yes (use venv or uv).
## Config
Both flags live under `agent.` in config.yaml, default True:
agent:
task_completion_guidance: true # universal "finish the job" block
environment_probe: true # local Python toolchain hints
Neither addition required a `_config_version` bump — deep-merge fills
defaults in for existing user configs.

fix(compression): prevent session-id fork from concurrent compressions (#34351)
* fix(compression): prevent session-id fork from concurrent compressions When two AIAgent instances share the same session_id (most commonly the parent-turn agent and its background-review fork, which inherits session_id verbatim via background_review.py L451), both can call compress_context() on overlapping snapshots of the same conversation. Each ends the parent and creates its own NEW child session in state.db, both parented to the same old id. The gateway SessionEntry only catches one rotation; the other becomes an orphan that silently accumulates writes — Damien's incident shape (parent 20260527_234659_e65f0e → two children, only one visible). Adds a state.db-backed per-session compression lock. Acquired before the rotation in conversation_compression.compress_context(); on failure, the caller returns messages unchanged so the auto-compress retry loop stops cleanly. TTL (5min default) reclaims locks abandoned by crashed compressors. Lock holder identity (pid:tid:agent:nonce) is preserved for diagnostics via get_compression_lock_holder(). Schema bumped 13 -> 14 to track the new compression_locks table. Reconciled additively via the existing declarative-column pattern; no data migration needed for existing DBs. Regression test reproduces Damien's shape: two threads racing _compress_context on a shared parent_sid. Without the lock the test deterministically produces 2 child sessions; with the lock, exactly 1. Covers all six compression entry points (preflight in conversation_loop, mid-turn fallback, hygiene compression in gateway, /compact, CLI /compress, TUI /compress). ACP /compress was already protected by nulling out _session_db before its compress call. * ci: trigger rerun (transient GitHub API rate limit on CodeQL workflow) |

feat(kanban): attach images referenced in task bodies to worker vision (#34210)
Kanban workers now scan the task body for local image paths and http(s) image URLs and attach them to the worker's first user turn — matching the CLI/gateway behaviour for inbound images. Before, a user pasting `/home/me/screenshot.png` or `https://example.com/img.png` into a kanban task description had it sent to the model as plain text and the pixels were never seen. How it works: * agent/image_routing.py gains extract_image_refs(text) → (paths, urls) that mirrors gateway/platforms/base.py:extract_local_files (absolute / ~-relative paths, image extensions only, ignores fenced/inline code). * build_native_content_parts() accepts an optional image_urls= kwarg and emits passthrough image_url parts for remote URLs alongside the base64 data: URLs used for local paths. * cli.py (single-query/quiet branch — the path every dispatcher-spawned worker takes) detects HERMES_KANBAN_TASK, reads the task body via kanban_db.get_task, runs extract_image_refs, and threads the results into the existing image-routing decision (native vs text). Best-effort: enrichment failures never block worker startup. Tested: * tests/agent/test_image_routing.py — 22 new tests for extract_image_refs and URL pass-through in build_native_content_parts. * tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_worker_image_extraction.py — 10 new tests driving real kanban_db round-trip (create task → read body → extract refs → build parts). * E2E: created a fake kanban task with a body referencing both a local PNG and an https URL; verified the worker pipeline produces a multimodal user turn with 1 text part + 2 image_url parts (data URL for the local file, passthrough URL for the remote). |
