fix(gateway): keep JSON-embedded MEDIA: text verbatim in cleaned output
Self-review of #34375 fix: the cleanup path ran media_pattern.sub('') over the JSON-masked copy of the text, which baked the masking spaces into the user-visible 'cleaned' string — a serialized tool result like {"old":"MEDIA:/x.png"} came back as {"old":" "}. Now mask only a length-equal copy of 'cleaned' to locate the real tag spans, then delete those spans from the unmasked 'cleaned'. Real tags are stripped; JSON-embedded MEDIA: text reads back verbatim. Masking 'cleaned' (not the original 'content') keeps offsets valid after the [[audio_as_voice]] / [[as_document]] directives are removed. Adds two cleaned-text regression tests. |

fix(gateway): skip MEDIA: inside serialized JSON string values
Serialized tool results frequently embed a prior reply's text, e.g.
{"result": "MEDIA:/path/stale.png"}. The bare-path branch of
MEDIA_TAG_CLEANUP_RE matched these and re-delivered stale files (#34375).
Adds BasePlatformAdapter._mask_json_string_media, which blanks (offset-
preserving) only MEDIA:<bare-path> tokens that sit inside a JSON value-
context string (opened by : , { or [). Legitimate tags at line start,
after prose, indented, MEDIA:"quoted" form, and two-line TTS output are
all left untouched.
Reworked from the approach in #34388 (a line-start regex anchor), which
no longer applied to current main and regressed same-line/indented tags.

feat(desktop): drop files anywhere in the chat area (#36262)
* feat(desktop): drop files anywhere in the chat area File drops were only wired to the composer input. Add a reusable useFileDropZone hook (enter/leave depth counting + capture-phase reset so the affordance clears even when the composer claims the drop) and a pointer-events-none ChatDropOverlay, wired onto the conversation viewport. Drops funnel through the existing onAttachDroppedItems; composer drops keep their own inline-ref behavior. * fix(desktop): chat-area drops insert inline @file refs, not attachment cards Match the composer-input drop behavior — funnel dropped paths through droppedFileInlineRef + the composer insert bus so they render as inline ref chips instead of attachment cards. * fix(desktop): don't render bare file paths as tool images (404) vision_analyze reports its input image as a local filesystem path, which toolImageUrl handed straight to <img src>. In the renderer that resolves against the dev-server origin and 404s. Restrict inline tool images to fetchable sources (data: URLs and remote http(s)); bare paths now fall back to the tool's codicon. |

fix(dashboard-auth): drop /api/* paths from OAuth next= round trip (#36244)
When an unauthenticated SPA fetch hit a gated /api/* endpoint (e.g.
GET /api/analytics/models?days=30 fired from ModelsPage on mount or
after a session expiry), the gated middleware stamped the request's
own path into next= on the 401 envelope's login_url. The SPA's global
401 handler in web/src/lib/api.ts full-page-navigated to that URL,
the PKCE cookie carried the encoded /api/* value through the OAuth
round trip to Portal, and /auth/callback's _validate_post_login_target
accepted it as same-origin and redirected the user to the raw JSON
endpoint instead of the dashboard.
Symptom Ben reported: after the OAuth screen he kept landing on
$DOMAIN/api/analytics/models?days=30 (raw JSON) rather than /models.
The bug was deterministic per page — whichever /api/* call ModelsPage,
AnalyticsPage, or SessionsPage fired first owned the redirect race.
Fix: both validators now reject /api/* targets in addition to the
existing /login, /auth/, /api/auth/ exclusions:
- _safe_next_target in middleware.py drops the value before it ever
enters login_url, so the SPA's 401 handler navigates to a bare
/login (which the SPA itself can return-from via its own
sessionStorage["hermes.lastLocation"] fallback that was already
saving the actual browser location).
- _validate_post_login_target in routes.py drops it as second-line
defence at the callback boundary, so a legacy cookie, a regressed
middleware, or an attacker-crafted /auth/login?next=/api/... value
can't smuggle the redirect through. Either layer alone is enough;
pairing them means a regression in one is caught by the other.
The match is anchored: ``decoded == "/api"`` or
``decoded.startswith("/api/")``. SPA route lookalikes like /apidocs
or /api-keys remain valid landing targets — tests pin that.
Test additions in test_dashboard_auth_401_reauth.py:
- TestApi401Envelope: rewrote test_login_url_carries_next_for_deep_
api_path (which asserted the pre-fix behaviour) as
test_login_url_drops_next_for_deep_api_path, plus added the
specific analytics-models repro case from Ben's report.
- TestNextSameOriginValidation: rejects-api-paths + does-not-reject-
api-prefix-lookalikes (covers /apidocs, /api-keys).
- TestAuthCallbackNext: end-to-end test_callback_with_api_next_
lands_at_root drives /auth/login?next=/api/... through to the
callback and asserts the user lands at "/", not the API URL.
- TestValidatePostLoginTarget: new class covering the callback-side
validator directly, including the URL-encoded ``%2Fapi%2F...``
form the PKCE cookie actually carries.
Mutation-tested: reverting both validators causes exactly the 5 new
or rewritten /api/*-related assertions to fail (each fix layer is
independently tested), while the 31 other assertions in the file
remain green. Full tests/hermes_cli/ suite (288 files, 5,938 tests)
passes with the fix applied.

fix(desktop): add missing PATCH /api/sessions/{id} so rename works (#36249)
The desktop rename dialog sent PATCH /api/sessions/{id}, but the backend
only defined GET and DELETE for that path — FastAPI returned 405 Method
Not Allowed, surfaced to the user as "Rename failed". Add the PATCH route
backed by SessionDB.set_session_title (handles sanitization, uniqueness,
and clearing the title when empty).
Also fix a misleading notification: any 405 was summarized as an unrelated
"does not support that audio endpoint" message. Make it a generic 405 hint.

fix(docker): chown hermes-owned top-level state files on boot (#35098) (#36236)
The targeted data-volume chown in stage2-hook.sh only covers hermes-owned *subdirectories*; loose state files living directly under $HERMES_HOME (auth.json, state.db, gateway.lock, gateway_state.json, …) are missed. When created or rewritten by `docker exec <container> hermes …` (root unless `-u` is passed) they land root-owned, and the unprivileged hermes runtime then hits PermissionError on next startup, producing a gateway restart loop. Fix: reset ownership of an explicit allowlist of hermes-owned top-level files on every boot. The list mirrors the top-level file entries of hermes_cli.profile_distribution.USER_OWNED_EXCLUDE plus the runtime lock files. This uses a targeted allowlist rather than the originally-proposed blanket `find $HERMES_HOME -maxdepth 1 -user root` sweep, preserving the targeted-ownership contract from #19788 / PR #19795: a bind-mounted $HERMES_HOME may contain host-owned files Hermes does not manage, and those must never be chowned. Verified end-to-end: allowlisted root-owned files are reset to hermes on restart while a non-allowlisted host file keeps its root ownership. Co-authored-by: x1am1 <2663402852@qq.com> |

fix(desktop): darken light-mode code comment color for legibility (#36234)
Shiki's github-light-default colors comments #6e7781 (~4.2:1 on the code card background), which is borderline unreadable at the 11px code font size — and worst for shell snippets, where a single `#` turns the rest of the line into one long comment span. Remap light-mode comments to GitHub's darker muted gray (#57606a, ~6.4:1) via per-theme colorReplacements. Dark mode (~6.1:1) reads fine and is left untouched. |

fix(docker): support s6 /init images in terminal sandbox (#34628) (#34635)
s6-overlay images (e.g. hermes-agent:latest) use /init as PID 1 and exec /run/s6/basedir/bin/init during stage0 startup. The Docker terminal backend unconditionally added Docker --init and mounted /run as noexec, which broke those images in two ways: --init created a second competing PID-1 init, and the noexec /run made s6 stage0 fail with "exec: /run/s6/basedir/bin/init: Permission denied" (exit 126), so the container died and terminal commands reported a generic "container is not running" error. Detect images whose entrypoint is /init via 'docker image inspect' and, for those images only, skip Docker --init and mount /run with exec. All other images keep the hardened --init + noexec defaults. Detection is best-effort: any inspect failure falls back to the safe defaults. |

fix(docker): add /usr/bin/tini compatibility shim for legacy wrappers (#34192) (#34382)
#34192 reports Hostinger's 'Hermes WebUI' catalog crashes on startup with: /usr/bin/tini: No such file or directory The image moved from tini to s6-overlay as PID 1 (/init) earlier in 2026. Orchestration templates that still pin /usr/bin/tini as the entrypoint \u2014 like the Hostinger Hermes WebUI catalog \u2014 have no binary to exec and the container crashes immediately. Hermes has no control over the Hostinger catalog template, but we can make the image backward-compatible by symlinking /usr/bin/tini -> /init during the s6-overlay install step. External wrappers that exec /usr/bin/tini will land on the same s6-overlay reaper they would have landed on if they'd used the canonical /init entrypoint. The image's own ENTRYPOINT continues to be /init verbatim \u2014 the shim is purely for legacy external wrappers, not for the image's own runtime path. Once affected catalogs are updated, the symlink can be removed. Other issues #34192 raises that are NOT addressed by this PR: * Problem #2 (UID 1024 vs 10000 mismatch): already fixed by #33148 (S6_KEEP_ENV=1) and #32412 (with-contenv shebangs). The Hostinger template likely needs to update its env-var propagation. * Problem #3 (incompatible session formats): RFC for pluggable SessionDB is tracked in #23717. * Problem #4 (Telegram polling conflict): an operations problem on Hostinger's side, not in this codebase. This PR is scoped to the one issue that can be fixed inside Dockerfile: the missing /usr/bin/tini binary. Tests (3 in test_dockerfile_tini_compat_shim.py): - test_tini_compat_symlink_present Guard: the symlink line must exist in Dockerfile. - test_tini_compat_comment_explains_why The #34192 anchor comment must be present so future readers know why the shim is there (avoid accidental removal). - test_entrypoint_still_init_not_tini Sanity check: ENTRYPOINT remains /init (s6-overlay). The shim is only for external wrappers. Refs: #34192 Partial fix: addresses the immediate tini-binary crash. Catalog-side fixes still needed by Hostinger for the UID and session-format problems documented in the issue. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> |

fix(config): chown ensure_hermes_home dirs to HERMES_UID/GID in Docker (#34107) (#34268)
Fixes #34107. When Hermes runs in Docker with HERMES_UID=1000 / HERMES_GID=911, the entrypoint chowns the top-level HERMES_HOME once at startup — but subdirectories created at runtime by ensure_hermes_home() (especially for profile namespaces under profiles/<name>/ spawned by kanban workers) were landing as root:root and blocking subsequent uid-mapped worker invocations with: PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/opt/data/profiles/charles/logs/curator' Fix: add _resolve_hermes_uid_gid + _chown_to_hermes_uid helpers that read the env vars and apply chown after mkdir. Invoke from _secure_dir which already runs after every directory creation in the home-init path, so all newly-created subdirs (including the profile namespaces) get the right ownership. Safety properties: - No-op when HERMES_UID/HERMES_GID unset (the dominant non-Docker path) - No-op on Windows (os.chown doesn't exist; AttributeError swallowed) - No-op when running as non-root (EPERM swallowed — the entrypoint's startup chown -R picks it up on next restart, and in most cases the dir was already correctly-owned by the calling user) - Uses -1 sentinel for missing field so only the set value applies - Empty-string env vars treated as unset Adds 14 tests across: - TestResolveHermesUidGid (7) — env-var parsing - TestChownToHermesUid (5) — chown helper invariants - TestSecureDirChown (2) — end-to-end through _secure_dir Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> |

feat(models): add MiniMax-M3 to native minimax providers + 1M context (#36214)
Add MiniMax-M3 to the minimax, minimax-oauth, and minimax-cn curated lists (these are hardcoded — the native Anthropic-format endpoint has no /v1/models listing and the providers aren't in _MODELS_DEV_PREFERRED, so new models don't auto-pull). Add a DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS key 'minimax-m3' -> 1,000,000 so M3 resolves to its 1M context on every surface (native ID + OpenRouter/Nous slug) via longest-key-first substring match, while the M2.x series stays at 204,800. |

fix(desktop): make locally-built macOS app relaunchable after in-place self-update (#36198)
On macOS the desktop app is built locally and ad-hoc signed (no Developer ID on the user's machine). An ad-hoc bundle has no stable Designated Requirement, so when the self-updater rebuilds it in place with a fresh build (new cdhash) — plus the com.apple.quarantine flag inherited from the downloaded installer process chain — Gatekeeper/LaunchServices treats the changed code as tampering and macOS reports "Hermes is damaged and can't be opened," and the app fails to relaunch. First launch works (fresh registration); the in-place update relaunch is what breaks. Fix: after building the desktop app locally, strip quarantine xattrs and re-apply a clean deep ad-hoc signature (omitting the hardened-runtime flag, which an ad-hoc build can't satisfy). Applied in both build entry points: - hermes_cli/main.py cmd_gui (the `hermes desktop --build-only` path the updater drives) — so the fix ships via `hermes update` (git), no installer re-download needed. - scripts/install.sh install_desktop (first install) for parity. Both are no-ops on non-macOS and when a real signing identity (CSC_LINK / APPLE_SIGNING_IDENTITY) is configured, so signed/notarized builds are untouched. |

fix(tools): fall back to .hermes/.env when forwarded secret is empty (#35583)
The docker_forward_env build loop only consulted the ~/.hermes/.env disk
fallback when a key was unset (value is None), not when it was present
but empty (""). A transient empty value in os.environ was therefore
forwarded into the sandbox container as `-e KEY=`, clobbering the correct
value on disk. Sandboxed workloads then read a zero-length secret and
failed auth (observed as intermittent Linear API 401s) with no gateway
restart and no .env rewrite.
Treat empty-string like unset (`if not value:` on the fallback) and never
forward a blank secret (`if value:` on the guard).
Fixes #35580

feat(tools): surface the free tool pool in entitlement + setup (#36153)
Read the Portal's tool_access claim (JWT + /api/oauth/account) into NousToolAccessInfo and gate managed Tool Gateway access on it: tool_gateway_entitled (paid OR live pool) and per-category tool_gateway_entitled_for(). The pool funds web/image/tts/browser but not video, so per-backend availability, the charge picker (ensure_nous_portal_access coverage_category), and managed defaults all respect coverage. Setup: rebuild prompt_enable_tool_gateway as a per-tool checklist that renders whenever the pool is enabled, lists only pool-covered tools (video excluded for free-pool users), and is framed as the free tool pool for $0 subscribers rather than a paid subscription. get_gateway_eligible_tools now gates and filters off the entitlement snapshot. |

fix(install): build desktop in 'desktop' stage on macOS/Linux instead of silently skipping (#36134)
The thin installer (apps/bootstrap-installer) drives install.sh stage-by-stage,
each in its own process. The `desktop` stage never called check_node, so the
Hermes-managed Node provisioned earlier (at $HERMES_HOME/node/bin) wasn't on
PATH. install_desktop's `command -v npm` check then failed and the build was
skipped — yet the stage still reported {"ok":true,"skipped":false}, so the
installer showed "Installation Complete" and only failed at the end with
"Couldn't find a built Hermes desktop ... the desktop build step may have been
skipped or failed."
Fix:
- Call check_node in the `desktop` stage (mirrors every other Node-dependent
stage) so the managed Node is on PATH (or installed).
- Make install_desktop self-provision via check_node and hard-fail (return 1)
if npm is still unavailable, instead of a silent `return 0`. The desktop
stage only runs when a build is explicitly requested (--include-desktop), so
an unavailable toolchain is a real failure, not graceful degradation.
Verified on macOS arm64: the `desktop` stage now builds
release/mac-arm64/Hermes.app, which matches resolve_hermes_desktop_exe, so the
installer's "Launch Hermes" succeeds.

fix(desktop): report desktop_contract in lazy session.create info (#36112)
The lazy session.create path hand-builds a partial info dict that omitted desktop_contract. The desktop GUI reads a missing contract as undefined and treats it as an out-of-date backend, so it surfaced a "Backend out of date" toast on every launch even against a current backend. Carry the contract in the lazy payload like _session_info already does for resume/branch. |

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 |

docs: drop early-beta framing for native Windows support (#36093)
Native Windows is out of beta. Removes the early-beta warnings, headings, and rough-edge framing across the README and docs (EN + zh-Hans), keeping the WSL2-only dashboard PTY caveat. Historical RELEASE_v0.14.0.md notes are left intact since they accurately describe the state at that release. - README: Windows install + cross-platform notes - index.mdx, installation.md: headings, warning admonitions, parity note - windows-native.md: title/sidebar_label/warning, provider-hunting tip - contributing.md, nous-portal.md: cross-platform / Portal parity prose - Repoint cross-links to the renamed installation#windows-native-powershell anchor (EN) and #windows原生powershell (zh, also fixes pre-existing drift) |

feat(model-picker): description on group layer, plain labels on members
For grouped provider families, the descriptive text now lives only on the collapsed top-level group row. The member sub-picker rows show just the short provider label (no parenthetical tui_desc), so the description is not duplicated one layer down. Ungrouped providers are unaffected — they have no group layer, so their own row keeps its full tui_desc. - main.py: member sub-picker uses provider_labels (label) instead of canonical_descs (tui_desc). - Telegram already showed labels + model count on member buttons; group buttons keep Label ▸ (count) since inline keyboards can't fit a long blurb. Member labels retain their short disambiguators (e.g. 'MiniMax (OAuth)') so the sub-picker rows stay distinguishable. |

feat(model-picker): show short description on grouped provider rows
The 7 consolidated provider families (OpenAI, xAI Grok, GitHub Copilot, Google Gemini, Kimi / Moonshot, MiniMax, OpenCode) collapse to one top-level picker row. Previously that row showed only the bare group label (e.g. `OpenAI ▸`); now it carries a short blurb describing the endpoints folded inside (e.g. `OpenAI ▸ (Codex CLI or direct OpenAI API)`). - models.py: extend PROVIDER_GROUPS tuples to (label, description, members); group_providers() emits the description on group rows. - main.py: CLI picker renders `<label> ▸ (<description>)` for group rows. - telegram.py: update the group tuple unpack (button text keeps the member count, which fits inline keyboards better than a long blurb). - tests: assert every group has a non-empty description and the fold emits it. Member-specific detail still lives in each member's tui_desc and shows in the drill-down sub-picker. Slug identity, --provider, /model paths unchanged. |

chore(model-picker): refresh provider picker descriptions
Update the tui_desc text shown for each provider in the interactive `hermes model` / setup wizard / `/model` pickers. Pure copy refresh — slugs, labels, PROVIDER_GROUPS folding, and all typed paths are unchanged, so the 7 grouped families (OpenAI, xAI Grok, GitHub Copilot, Google Gemini, Kimi / Moonshot, MiniMax, OpenCode) still fold identically. Also aligns the auto-injected alibaba-coding-plan provider description to the same parenthetical style. |

fix(gateway): resolve _get_dm_topic_info on adapter class, not instance
Follow-up to the synthetic-notification DM-topic routing fix. The new _is_telegram_dm_topic_target probed the adapter's _get_dm_topic_info via instance-level getattr, which a MagicMock auto-creates as a truthy callable — so any test double with a non-dm chat_type and a thread_id would be misclassified as a DM topic lane and have the fallback routing keys injected. Resolve the method on type(adapter) and treat only dict-shaped returns as an operator-declared topic, mirroring the existing guard in _rename_telegram_topic_for_session_title. Update the home-channel startup test to declare _get_dm_topic_info on a real adapter subclass instead of patching a MagicMock onto the instance. |

fix(tools): don't compound-rewrite spawn_via_env background wrappers
Background tasks on non-local backends (SSH/Docker/Modal/Daytona/Singularity)
go through `ProcessRegistry.spawn_via_env`, which builds a hand-crafted,
shell-safe wrapper:
mkdir -p T && ( nohup bash -lc CMD > LOG 2>&1; rc=$?; ... ) & echo $! > PID && cat PID
`BaseEnvironment.execute()` unconditionally ran `_rewrite_compound_background`
on every command, including this wrapper. The rewrite (meant to defuse the
`A && B &` subshell-wait trap for user commands) turns `( ... ) & echo $!` into
`{ ( ... ) & } echo $!` — note `} echo` with no separator, which is a bash
syntax error. The wrapper then never produces a PID, the redirected output file
is never created, and the agent sees an immediate exit code -1. This breaks
*every* background launch on a non-local backend (e.g. a simple
count-and-redirect script over SSH), not just edge cases.
Fix:
- Add `rewrite_compound_background: bool = True` to `BaseEnvironment.execute()`
(and the `BaseModalExecutionEnvironment` override, which accepts and ignores
it). Default preserves existing behavior; the user foreground terminal path
still rewrites.
- `spawn_via_env` passes `rewrite_compound_background=False` so its already
shell-safe wrapper is left intact.
- Treat a wrapper that produces no PID as a failed launch (mark the session
exited with a real exit code instead of exposing a fake running session), and
don't register/checkpoint a session that never started.
Verified empirically: with the rewrite skipped, the wrapper is valid bash,
launches the process, captures the PID, and writes the log/pid/exit files; the
old rewritten form fails `bash -n` with a syntax error.
Based on #33756 by @CharZhou (extracted from a multi-feature branch; the
unrelated image_gen / docker-media changes are not included here).

fix(tools): preserve live session cwd in terminal_tool, and keep ACP update_cwd authoritative
terminal_tool re-sent the init-time/config cwd on every command, clobbering session-local `cd` state: the environment tracked the new directory in `env.cwd`, but foreground/background calls forced the old cwd back. A small `_resolve_command_cwd` resolver now applies the precedence `workdir > live env.cwd > config/override cwd` to: - foreground `env.execute(...)` - background `process_registry.spawn_local(...)` - background `process_registry.spawn_via_env(...)` Additionally, syncing the cwd onto the live cached env when a `cwd` override is (re-)registered. Preferring live `env.cwd` would otherwise demote the ACP `update_cwd` override (registered via `register_task_env_overrides` on `session/load` / `session/resume`) below an already-set `env.cwd`, silently ignoring an editor's mid-session project-root change once any command had run. `register_task_env_overrides` now pushes a new cwd onto the cached env so an explicit ACP cwd change wins, while ordinary in-session `cd` tracking is preserved. Regression coverage: - foreground/background commands follow live `env.cwd` - explicit `workdir` still overrides everything - registering a cwd override updates the live env cwd (ACP authority) - no-op when no live env exists; non-cwd overrides leave env.cwd untouched Based on #35510 by @Dusk1e.

fix(gateway): /stop can interrupt a sibling participant's run in a per-user thread (#35959)
In a per-user thread (thread_sessions_per_user=True), each participant
gets an isolated session key (...:{thread_id}:{user_id}). A run another
user started lives under a different key, so the caller's own /stop found
nothing and replied 'no active task to stop'.
When /stop finds no run under the caller's own key, fall back to
interrupting any running agent(s) sharing the caller's thread prefix
({chat_id}:{thread_id}), gated on _is_user_authorized. Thread-only — the
fallback returns [] for non-thread channels, and a prefix-collision guard
prevents thr1 from matching thr11.

feat(setup): thin out setup — Quick Setup via Nous Portal + Full Setup defaults (#35723)
* feat(setup): Quick Setup routes through Nous Portal (OAuth + model + messaging) First-time quick setup now goes straight to the Nous Portal provider instead of showing the full provider picker. Runs the device-code OAuth login, selects a Nous model, configures the terminal backend, and offers messaging setup — applying recommended defaults for everything else. - Rename menu entry to 'Quick Setup (Nous Portal)'. - _run_first_time_quick_setup now calls _model_flow_nous (handles both the logged-out OAuth+model-select path and the logged-in curated picker), then re-syncs config from disk to avoid the #4172 stale-overwrite. - Terminal / defaults / messaging steps unchanged. * feat(setup): thin out Full Setup with happy defaults Full Setup no longer asks for every config knob — anything with an obvious default is applied silently and stays tunable via the per-section commands (hermes setup agent|terminal|tts, hermes auth add). - Model section: drop the same-provider rotation pool, vision-backend picker, and TTS provider sub-flows. Vision auto-detects from the main provider; TTS defaults to Edge; rotation lives in hermes auth add. - Terminal section: keep the backend picker (Local default) and any required credentials (Modal token, SSH host/user/key, Daytona key), but stop prompting for container image, CPU/mem/disk resources, gateway cwd, and sudo password — all use defaults. - Agent Settings: removed from the wizard. First installs get recommended defaults silently; existing installs keep their tuned values. - New defaults: max_turns 90 -> 150, session_reset both -> none. - Tests: reconfigure tests assert agent settings are no longer prompted on existing installs; drop 3 tests covering the deleted in-setup rotation flow. |

fix(tui): auto-recover session on unexpected gateway death (+ persist lifecycle breadcrumbs) (#35893)
* fix(tui): persist gateway lifecycle breadcrumbs to crash log A backend SIGTERM (`=== SIGTERM received ===` in tui_gateway_crash.log) is always a parent action — `gw.kill()` (graceful-exit on a signal to Node, or an explicit /quit) or `start()` replacing a live child. #31051 added parent-side lifecycle breadcrumbs but left them in an in-memory CircularBuffer that dies with the process, so SIGTERM crash reports arrive with no parent context and no way to tell a signal-driven kill from a memory-critical `process.exit(137)` (which closes the child's stdin → clean EOF, not SIGTERM). Persist the death-explaining breadcrumbs (spawn / transport-exit / child-exit / replace-live-child / kill-reason / startup-timeout) plus the graceful-exit signal name and the memory-critical exit into the same crash log the Python side writes, so they interleave by timestamp next to the child's panic entry — making these recurring reports diagnosable. Gated off under VITEST so unit tests stay hermetic. * feat(tui): auto-recover the session when the gateway dies unexpectedly When a still-owned gateway child dies while the TUI is alive (a crash, OOM process.exit, or a SIGTERM/SIGHUP forwarded to it), the app currently nulls the session and drops to an inert "gateway exited" state — the user loses a long session and has to restart + re-run everything. That single behavior is most of the "TUI doesn't survive heavy work" complaint, independent of what does the killing. The 'exit' event only reaches this handler on an *unexpected* death: a user /quit calls process.exit before it fires, and a replaced child is identity- skipped in GatewayClient. So on exit we now respawn the gateway and resume the session that was live (history is persisted in SQLite) via a one-shot recoverSidRef the next gateway.ready consults before forging a new session. The in-flight reply is lost (it died with the process) but the session survives. Bounded to GATEWAY_RECOVERY_LIMIT (3) attempts per GATEWAY_RECOVERY_WINDOW_MS (60s) so a gateway that crash-loops on startup can't spawn-storm; past the budget we fall back to the inert state. * fix(tui): sanitize newlines + soften SIGTERM-cause claim in parentLog Address PR review: - recordParentLifecycle collapses embedded \r\n so a multi-line value (e.g. an error message) stays a single breadcrumb and can't masquerade as a separate entry or as the child's panic output sharing the crash log. - Reword the header: a backend SIGTERM is *usually* a parent action but can come straight from an external supervisor (s6, cgroup OOM, stray kill); the presence/absence of a [tui-parent] line before the child's panic is precisely what disambiguates the two. * fix(tui): clear sid during recovery + extract/test the recovery budget Address PR review: - Null `sid` immediately in the gateway exit handler. While the gateway is down (busy=false) the old sid would otherwise let sid-guarded effects (the 1.5s session.active_list poll, queue drain) fire RPCs at a dead/respawning gateway. recoverSidRef carries the session forward; resumeById restores sid on ready. - Extract the respawn budget into a pure evalRecovery() (gatewayRecovery.ts) and unit-test the bound: allows GATEWAY_RECOVERY_LIMIT within the window, blocks past it, and prunes attempts older than the window so recovery re-arms. * fix(tui): cap parent-log breadcrumb length (PR review) Truncate a single persisted breadcrumb to 4096 chars (matching GatewayClient's in-memory log-line cap) so a pathological value — e.g. a giant error string — can't bloat the shared crash log or add noticeable blocking on the synchronous append during a failure path. Covered by a test. * fix(tui): keep "recovering session…" status visible during resume (PR review) resumeById() synchronously sets status to 'resuming…' on entry, so the recovery branch now applies its 'recovering session…' label *after* calling resumeById — the distinct label sticks for the duration of the resume RPC (which later flips to 'ready') instead of being immediately clobbered. Test updated to assert the ordering. * fix(tui): keep recovery budget alive across a startup crash-loop (PR review) deadSid was read from getUiState().sid, which the first exit nulls — so if the respawned gateway crash-looped before gateway.ready (resumeById never restored sid), later exits saw null and abandoned the session after a single attempt, defeating the bounded retry budget. Lift the whole decision into a pure planGatewayRecovery() that falls back to the pending recoverSidRef target when the live sid is already cleared, and unit-test the crash-loop sequence (keeps retrying the same session up to the limit, then falls back to inert). Supersedes evalRecovery. * chore(tui): drop non-null assertion + clarify breadcrumb cap comment (PR review) - Recovery branch guards on `recoverSidRef && recoverSid` so the ref write needs no `!` assertion (avoids a future unsafe refactor). - Reword the parentLog cap comment: it slices the value to 4096 chars and appends a short truncation marker (so the written line is slightly longer), rather than implying a strict 4096-byte limit. * chore(tui): soften "absence ⇒ external signal" + "any in-flight reply" (PR review) - parentLog header: a missing [tui-parent] line only *suggests* an external signal (the logger is best-effort: VITEST-disabled, failed append swallowed), not a definitive conclusion. - Recovery notice says "any in-flight reply was lost" since the gateway can also exit while idle. |

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

revert: drop cumulative-resend tool-arg heuristic from shared streaming path (#35718) (#35860)
PR #35718 added a per-slot "cumulative-resend" latch to the universal
streaming tool-call accumulator to fix DeepSeek / Baidu Qianfan (#35592).
The latch fires when a delta is a strict superset of the accumulated
buffer (len(_new) > len(_prev) and _new.startswith(_prev)) and then
REPLACES the buffer instead of appending.
That superset test is not an unambiguous cumulative signature. A normal
incremental stream can emit a single fragment that restates an already-
accumulated prefix — trivially common in large code-patch arguments with
repeated lines / indentation — which trips the latch and clobbers the
accumulated buffer, corrupting the tool call. Observed in the wild on
Anthropic Opus (the primary model) building a large patch: corrupted /
short arguments → finish_reason='length' dead-end → session killed.
A guessing heuristic that can silently clobber a tool-call buffer has no
place on the path every provider and model shares. Reverting restores the
known-good plain `+=` accumulator. The #35592 narrow provider bug should
be re-addressed provider-gated so it is structurally impossible to touch
Anthropic / OpenAI incremental streams, rather than via a heuristic on the
shared path.

fix(cli): clamp post-compression token sentinel in status bar (#35858)
The status bar read context_compressor.last_prompt_tokens directly with an 'or 0' guard that only catches 0/None. Right after a compression the compressor parks last_prompt_tokens at the -1 sentinel (awaiting_real_usage_after_compression) until the next API call reports real usage. -1 is truthy, so it sailed through and rendered as '-1/200K' and '-1%' for that one transitional turn. Clamp negative token/context-length values to 0 in the status-bar snapshot so the gap reads as empty context until real usage arrives. |
