Cron is a built-in Hermes feature (CLI `hermes cron`, `cronjob` agent
tool, gateway ticker, scheduler in cron/scheduler.py) but croniter has
been gated behind the [cron] optional extra. Users who do a plain
`pip install hermes-agent` can create jobs via /cron but any recurring
cron schedule silently returns next_run_at=None (HAS_CRONITER=False),
which then gets wrapped into a 'state=error' message only after a tick.
Move croniter into core dependencies so scheduled jobs work out of the
box on any install path. The [cron] extra is kept as an empty
passthrough so existing `pip install hermes-agent[cron]` installs and
the [all]/[termux] extras continue to resolve.
Also update the now-stale user-facing error message in
`compute_next_run()` that still tells users to install `hermes-agent[cron]`.
Salvaged from #17234 (authored by @txbxxx) with a corrected premise:
the original PR claimed [cron] wasn't in [all], but it is (pyproject.toml
line 112). The real UX problem is the plain no-extras install path,
which this fix addresses.
compute_next_run() ignored the last_run_at parameter for cron-type
schedules, always computing from _hermes_now() instead. This was
inconsistent with interval jobs which DO use last_run_at as the anchor.
After a crash or restart, cron jobs would compute next_run_at from
the arbitrary restart time rather than the actual last execution time.
While the stale detection in get_due_jobs() catches most cases, using
last_run_at as the croniter base eliminates edge cases and makes the
behavior consistent across schedule types.
Salvaged from #9014 (authored by @beenherebefore) onto current main.
The original PR branch was 2+ weeks stale and would have reverted
substantial unrelated work (jobs_file_lock, workdir/context_from/
enabled_toolsets, issue #16265 state=error recovery). Kept just the
7-line substantive fix and the regression test.
Bare `float(os.getenv("HERMES_CRON_TIMEOUT", 600))` in `run_job()` raises
a `ValueError` when the env var is set to a non-numeric string (e.g. "abc").
Replace it with the same defensive try/except pattern already used by
`_get_script_timeout()` for `HERMES_CRON_SCRIPT_TIMEOUT`: log a warning
and fall back to the 600 s default instead of crashing.
Also update the existing env-var tests to exercise the new code path and
add two new tests — one for an invalid value, one for an empty string.
Fixes#11319
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The cron schema contracts deliver as a string ("local", "origin",
"telegram", "telegram:chat_id[:thread_id]", or comma-separated combos),
but MCP clients and scripts sometimes pass an array like ['telegram'].
Before this change, the list was written to jobs.json verbatim, and
the scheduler's str(deliver).split(',') then tried to resolve the
literal string "['telegram']" as a platform — returning None and
logging 'no delivery target resolved for deliver=[\'telegram\']'.
Fix on both ends:
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: normalize deliver at the API boundary on
create and update, so storage is always a string.
- cron/scheduler.py: normalize deliver in _resolve_delivery_targets,
so existing jobs.json entries with list-form deliver are handled
gracefully without requiring users to edit the file.
Closes#17139
Extract the islink/realpath guard from the 16743 fix into a single
atomic_replace() helper in utils.py, then migrate every os.replace()
call site in the codebase to use it.
The original PR #16777 correctly identified and fixed the bug, but
only patched 9 of ~24 call sites. The same bug class (managed
deployments that symlink state files silently losing the link on
every write) still existed at auth.json, sessions file, gateway
config, env_loader, webhook subscriptions, debug store, model
catalog, pairing, google OAuth, nous rate guard, and more.
Rather than add another 10+ copies of the same three-line guard,
consolidate into atomic_replace(tmp, target) which:
- resolves symlinks via os.path.realpath before os.replace
- returns the resolved real path so callers can re-apply permissions
- is a drop-in replacement for os.replace at the use sites
Changes:
- utils.py: new atomic_replace() helper + atomic_json_write /
atomic_yaml_write now call it instead of inlining the guard
- 16 files: all os.replace() call sites migrated to atomic_replace()
- agent/{google_oauth, nous_rate_guard, shell_hooks}.py
- cron/jobs.py
- gateway/{pairing, session, platforms/telegram}.py
- hermes_cli/{auth, config, debug, env_loader, model_catalog, webhook}.py
- tools/{memory_tool, skill_manager_tool, skills_sync}.py
Tests: tests/test_atomic_replace_symlinks.py pins the invariant for
atomic_replace + atomic_json_write + atomic_yaml_write, covers plain
files, first-time creates, broken symlinks, and permission preservation.
Refs #16743
Builds on #16777 by @vominh1919.
os.replace(tmp, path) replaces the symlink itself with a regular file,
breaking users who symlink config.yaml, SOUL.md, or .env from ~/.hermes/
to a dotfiles repo or managed profile package.
Fix: resolve symlinks via os.path.realpath() before os.replace(), so the
real file is overwritten in-place while the symlink survives.
Fixed in 7 files covering all os.replace call sites:
- utils.py (atomic_json_write, atomic_yaml_write — fixes save_config)
- hermes_cli/config.py (env sanitizer, save_env_value, remove_env_value)
- tools/skill_manager_tool.py (_atomic_write_text — SOUL.md writes)
- tools/memory_tool.py (memory file writes)
- tools/skills_sync.py (manifest writes)
- cron/jobs.py (job state + output file writes)
- agent/shell_hooks.py (hook file writes)

* fix: clean gateway auxiliary client caches on teardown
* fix(gateway): recover from stale pid files and close cron agents
Two issues were keeping the gateway from surviving long runs:
1. `_cleanup_invalid_pid_path` delegated to `remove_pid_file`, which
refuses to unlink when the file's pid differs from our own. That
safety check exists for the --replace atexit handoff, but it also
applied to stale-record cleanup, so after a crashy exit the pid
file was orphaned: `write_pid_file()`'s O_EXCL create then failed
with `FileExistsError`, and systemd looped on "PID file race lost
to another gateway instance". Unlink unconditionally from this
helper since the caller has already verified the record is dead.
2. The cron scheduler never closed the ephemeral `AIAgent` it creates
per tick, and never swept the process-global auxiliary-client
cache. Over days of 10-minute ticks this leaked subprocesses and
async httpx transports until the gateway hit EMFILE. Release the
agent and call `cleanup_stale_async_clients()` in `run_job`'s
outer `finally`, matching the gateway's own per-turn cleanup.

If the gateway's Python env loses access to 'croniter' between when a
cron job was created and when mark_job_run() fires, compute_next_run()
returns None for cron schedules. mark_job_run() treated that as terminal
completion and wrote enabled=false, state=completed — turning a missing
runtime dep into a silent, permanent job-off.
That behaviour is safe for one-shot jobs but wrong for recurring ones. A
missing dep should surface as an error the user can see, not as successful
completion of a job that is about to stop firing.
mark_job_run() now only disables the job on next_run_at=None when the
schedule is one-shot. For recurring (cron/interval) schedules it keeps
enabled=true, sets state=error, and records last_error so the user can
see why the job isn't advancing. compute_next_run() also logs a warning
the first time cron+no-croniter hits, so the underlying cause is visible
in the gateway log.
Tests cover:
- recurring cron job stays enabled with state=error when HAS_CRONITER=False
- recurring interval stays enabled when compute_next_run returns None
- one-shot jobs still flip to enabled=false, state=completed (no regression)
Fixes#16265
MCP stdio servers are spawned via the SDK's stdio_client, which on
Linux uses start_new_session=True (setsid). When a cron job is
cancelled mid-way (timeout, agent finish, exception), the subprocess
often escapes the SDK's teardown and survives as a session leader.
Because setsid() detaches the child from the gateway's process group
/ cgroup tree, systemd does not reap it on service restart either —
so every cron tick that touches an MCP tool leaks a dangling server
process.
Fix:
* tools/mcp_tool.py — _run_stdio now wraps the whole stdio+session
context in try/finally. On any exit path (clean, exception,
cancellation), PIDs still alive are moved from the active
_stdio_pids set into a new _orphan_stdio_pids set. Orphan
detection is done via os.kill(pid, 0) — a cheap liveness probe
that never signals the target.
* tools/mcp_tool.py — _kill_orphaned_mcp_children gains an
include_active=False flag. Default behaviour now only reaps the
orphan set so concurrent sessions (other parallel cron jobs or
live user chats) are never disrupted. The existing shutdown path
passes include_active=True to keep the previous "kill everything"
semantics after the MCP loop is stopped.
* cron/scheduler.py — the cleanup hook is moved from run_job()'s
finally (which would race with parallel siblings after #13021)
into tick() after the ThreadPoolExecutor has joined every future.
At that point there are no in-flight sessions from this tick, so
sweeping the orphan set is always safe.
Net effect: zero regression for healthy sessions, and orphan MCP
servers no longer accumulate between gateway restarts.

Azure OpenAI content filters (Default/DefaultV2) treat bracketed
[SYSTEM: ...] meta-instructions as prompt-injection attempts and
reject requests with HTTP 400.
Replacing [SYSTEM: with [IMPORTANT: preserves the same semantic
meaning for the model while bypassing the Azure heuristic.
Fixes#6576
When the primary provider raises AuthError (expired OAuth token,
revoked API key), the error was re-raised before AIAgent was created,
so fallback_model was never consulted. Now both gateway/run.py and
cron/scheduler.py catch AuthError specifically and attempt to resolve
credentials from the fallback_providers/fallback_model config chain
before propagating the error.
Closes#7230
Cron jobs can now specify a per-job working directory. When set, the job
runs as if launched from that directory: AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md /
.cursorrules from that dir are injected into the system prompt, and the
terminal / file / code-exec tools use it as their cwd (via TERMINAL_CWD).
When unset, old behaviour is preserved (no project context files, tools
use the scheduler's cwd).
Requested by @bluthcy.
## Mechanism
- cron/jobs.py: create_job / update_job accept 'workdir'; validated to
be an absolute existing directory at create/update time.
- cron/scheduler.py run_job: if job.workdir is set, point TERMINAL_CWD
at it and flip skip_context_files to False before building the agent.
Restored in finally on every exit path.
- cron/scheduler.py tick: workdir jobs run sequentially (outside the
thread pool) because TERMINAL_CWD is process-global. Workdir-less jobs
still run in the parallel pool unchanged.
- tools/cronjob_tools.py + hermes_cli/cron.py + hermes_cli/main.py:
expose 'workdir' via the cronjob tool and 'hermes cron create/edit
--workdir ...'. Empty string on edit clears the field.
## Validation
- tests/cron/test_cron_workdir.py (21 tests): normalize, create, update,
JSON round-trip via cronjob tool, tick partition (workdir jobs run on
the main thread, not the pool), run_job env toggle + restore in finally.
- Full targeted suite (tests/cron/, test_cronjob_tools.py, test_cron.py,
test_config_cwd_bridge.py, test_worktree.py): 314/314 passed.
- Live smoke: hermes cron create --workdir $(pwd) works; relative path
rejected; list shows 'Workdir:'; edit --workdir '' clears.
Cron now resolves its toolset from the same per-platform config the
gateway uses — `_get_platform_tools(cfg, 'cron')` — instead of blindly
loading every default toolset. Existing cron jobs without a per-job
override automatically lose `moa`, `homeassistant`, and `rl` (the
`_DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS` set), which stops the "surprise $4.63
mixture_of_agents run" class of bug (Norbert, Discord).
Precedence inside `run_job`:
1. per-job `enabled_toolsets` (PR #14767 / #6130) — wins if set
2. `_get_platform_tools(cfg, 'cron')` — new, the blanket gate
3. `None` fallback (legacy) — only on resolver exception
Changes:
- hermes_cli/platforms.py: register 'cron' with default_toolset
'hermes-cron'
- toolsets.py: add 'hermes-cron' toolset (mirrors 'hermes-cli';
`_get_platform_tools` then filters via `_DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS`)
- cron/scheduler.py: add `_resolve_cron_enabled_toolsets(job, cfg)`,
call it at the `AIAgent(...)` kwargs site
- tests/cron/test_scheduler.py: replace the 'None when not set' test
(outdated contract) with an invariant ('moa not in default cron
toolset') + new per-job-wins precedence test
- tests/hermes_cli/test_tools_config.py: mark 'cron' as non-messaging
in the gateway-toolset-coverage test
When run_conversation returns a non-dict value (e.g. an int under
error conditions), the subsequent result.get("final_response", "")
raises an opaque "'int' object has no attribute 'get'" AttributeError.
Add a type guard that converts this into a clear RuntimeError, which
is properly caught by the outer except Exception handler that marks
the job as failed and delivers the error message.

When the live adapter delivery path (_deliver_result) or media send path
(_send_media_via_adapter) times out at future.result(timeout=N), the
underlying coroutine scheduled via asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe can
still complete on the event loop, causing a duplicate send after the
standalone fallback runs.
Cancel the future on TimeoutError before re-raising, so the standalone
fallback is the sole delivery path.
Adds TestDeliverResultTimeoutCancelsFuture and
TestSendMediaTimeoutCancelsFuture.

Replaces the serial for-loop in tick() with ThreadPoolExecutor so all
jobs due in a single tick run concurrently. A slow job no longer blocks
others from executing, fixing silent job skipping (issue #9086).
Thread safety:
- Session/delivery env vars migrated from os.environ to ContextVars
(gateway/session_context.py) so parallel jobs can't clobber each
other's delivery targets. Each thread gets its own copied context.
- jobs.json read-modify-write cycles (advance_next_run, mark_job_run)
protected by threading.Lock to prevent concurrent save clobber.
- send_message_tool reads delivery vars via get_session_env() for
ContextVar-aware resolution with os.environ fallback.
Configuration:
- cron.max_parallel_jobs in config.yaml (null = unbounded, 1 = serial)
- HERMES_CRON_MAX_PARALLEL env var override
Based on PR #9169 by @VenomMoth1.
Fixes#9086
Smart model routing (auto-routing short/simple turns to a cheap model
across providers) was opt-in and disabled by default. This removes the
feature wholesale: the routing module, its config keys, docs, tests, and
the orchestration scaffolding it required in cli.py / gateway/run.py /
cron/scheduler.py.
The /fast (Priority Processing / Anthropic fast mode) feature kept its
hooks into _resolve_turn_agent_config — those still build a route dict
and attach request_overrides when the model supports it; the route now
just always uses the session's primary model/provider rather than
running prompts through choose_cheap_model_route() first.
Also removed:
- DEFAULT_CONFIG['smart_model_routing'] block and matching commented-out
example sections in hermes_cli/config.py and cli-config.yaml.example
- _load_smart_model_routing() / self._smart_model_routing on GatewayRunner
- self._smart_model_routing / self._active_agent_route_signature on
HermesCLI (signature kept; just no longer initialised through the
smart-routing pipeline)
- route_label parameter on HermesCLI._init_agent (only set by smart
routing; never read elsewhere)
- 'Smart Model Routing' section in website/docs/integrations/providers.md
- tip in hermes_cli/tips.py
- entries in hermes_cli/dump.py + hermes_cli/web_server.py
- row in skills/autonomous-ai-agents/hermes-agent/SKILL.md
Tests:
- Deleted tests/agent/test_smart_model_routing.py
- Rewrote tests/agent/test_credential_pool_routing.py to target the
simplified _resolve_turn_agent_config directly (preserves credential
pool propagation + 429 rotation coverage)
- Dropped 'cheap model' test from test_cli_provider_resolution.py
- Dropped resolve_turn_route patches from cli + gateway test_fast_command
— they now exercise the real method end-to-end
- Removed _smart_model_routing stub assignments from gateway/cron test
helpers
Targeted suites: 74/74 in the directly affected test files;
tests/agent + tests/cron + tests/cli pass except 5 failures that
already exist on main (cron silent-delivery + alias quick-command).
Extends the existing cron script hook with a wake gate ported from
nanoclaw #1232. When a cron job's pre-check Python script (already
sandboxed to HERMES_HOME/scripts/) writes a JSON line like
```json
{"wakeAgent": false}
```
on its last stdout line, `run_job()` returns the SILENT marker and
skips the agent entirely — no LLM call, no delivery, no tokens spent.
Useful for frequent polls (every 1-5 min) that only need to wake the
agent when something has genuinely changed.
Any other script output (non-JSON, missing key, non-dict, `wakeAgent: true`,
truthy/falsy non-False values) behaves as before: stdout is injected
as context and the agent runs normally. Strict `False` is required
to skip — avoids accidental gating from arbitrary JSON.
Refactor:
- New pure helper `_parse_wake_gate(script_output)` in cron/scheduler.py
- `_build_job_prompt` accepts optional `prerun_script` tuple so the
script runs exactly once per job (run_job runs it for the gate check,
reuses the output for prompt injection)
- `run_job` short-circuits with SILENT_MARKER when gate fires
Script failures (success=False) still cannot trigger the gate — the
failure is reported as context to the agent as before.
This replaces the approach in closed PR #3837, which inlined bash
scripts via tempfile and lost the path-traversal/scripts-dir sandbox
that main's impl has. The wake-gate idea (the one net-new capability)
is ported on top of the existing sandboxed Python-script model.
Tests:
- 11 pure unit tests for _parse_wake_gate (empty, whitespace, non-JSON,
non-dict JSON, missing key, truthy/falsy non-False, multi-line,
trailing blanks, non-last-line JSON)
- 5 integration tests for run_job wake-gate (skip returns SILENT,
wake-true passes through, script-runs-only-once, script failure
doesn't gate, no-script regression)
- Full tests/cron/ suite: 194/194 pass
Add approvals.cron_mode config option that controls how cron jobs handle
dangerous commands. Previously, cron jobs silently auto-approved all
dangerous commands because there was no user present to approve them.
Now the behavior is configurable:
- deny (default): block dangerous commands and return a message telling
the agent to find an alternative approach. The agent loop continues —
it just can't use that specific command.
- approve: auto-approve all dangerous commands (previous behavior).
When a command is blocked, the agent receives the same response format as
a user denial in the CLI — exit_code=-1, status=blocked, with a message
explaining why and pointing to the config option. This keeps the agent
loop running and encourages it to adapt.
Implementation:
- config.py: add approvals.cron_mode to DEFAULT_CONFIG
- scheduler.py: set HERMES_CRON_SESSION=1 env var before agent runs
- approval.py: both check_command_approval() and check_all_command_guards()
now check for cron sessions and apply the configured mode
- 21 new tests covering config parsing, deny/approve behavior, and
interaction with other bypass mechanisms (yolo, containers)
Follow-up to WideLee's salvaged PR #11582.
Back-compat for QQ_HOME_CHANNEL → QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL rename:
- gateway/config.py reads QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL, falls back to QQ_HOME_CHANNEL
with a one-shot deprecation warning so users on the old name aren't
silently broken.
- cron/scheduler.py: _HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS['qqbot'] now maps to the new
name; _get_home_target_chat_id falls back to the legacy name via a
_LEGACY_HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS table.
- hermes_cli/status.py + hermes_cli/setup.py: honor both names when
displaying or checking for missing home channels.
- hermes_cli/config.py: keep legacy QQ_HOME_CHANNEL[_NAME] in
_EXTRA_ENV_KEYS so .env sanitization still recognizes them.
Scope cleanup:
- Drop qrcode from core dependencies and requirements.txt (remains in
messaging/dingtalk/feishu extras). _qqbot_render_qr already degrades
gracefully when qrcode is missing, printing a 'pip install qrcode' tip
and falling back to URL-only display.
- Restore @staticmethod on QQAdapter._detect_message_type (it doesn't
use self). Revert the test change that was only needed when it was
converted to an instance method.
- Reset uv.lock to origin/main; the PR's stale lock also included
unrelated changes (atroposlib source URL, hermes-agent version bump,
fastapi additions) that don't belong.
Verified E2E:
- Existing user (QQ_HOME_CHANNEL set): gateway + cron both pick up the
legacy name; deprecation warning logs once.
- Fresh user (QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL set): gateway + cron use new name,
no warning.
- Both set: new name wins on both surfaces.
Targeted tests: 296 passed, 4 skipped (qqbot + cron + hermes_cli).
Cron origin fallback extension (builds on #9193's _HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS):
adds the three remaining origin-fallback-eligible platforms that have
home channel env vars configured in gateway/config.py but use non-generic
env var names:
- email → EMAIL_HOME_ADDRESS (non-standard suffix)
- dingtalk → DINGTALK_HOME_CHANNEL
- qqbot → QQ_HOME_CHANNEL (non-standard prefix: QQ_ not QQBOT_)
Picks up the completeness intent of @Xowiek's PR #11317 using the
architecturally-correct dict-based lookup from #9193, so platforms with
non-standard env var names actually resolve instead of silently missing.
Extended the parametrized regression test to cover the new three.
Weixin test mock alignment (builds on #10091's _send_session split):
Three test sites added in Batch 1 (TestWeixinSendImageFileParameterName)
and Batch 3 (TestWeixinVoiceSending) mocked only adapter._session, but
#10091 switched the send paths to check self._send_session. Added the
companion setter so the tests stay green with the session split in place.
- gateway/platforms/weixin.py:
- Split aiohttp.ClientSession into _poll_session and _send_session
- Add _LIVE_ADAPTERS registry so send_weixin_direct() reuses the connected gateway adapter instead of creating a competing session
- Fixes silent message loss when gateway is running (iLink token contention)
- cron/scheduler.py:
- Support comma-separated deliver values (e.g. 'feishu,weixin') for multi-target delivery
- Delay pconfig/enabled check until standalone fallback so live adapters work even when platform is not in gateway config
- tools/send_message_tool.py:
- Synthesize PlatformConfig from WEIXIN_* env vars when gateway config lacks a weixin entry
- Fall back to WEIXIN_HOME_CHANNEL env var for home channel resolution
- tests/gateway/test_weixin.py:
- Update mocks to include _send_session
When a cron job's agent run completes but produces an empty final_response
(e.g. API 404 from invalid model name), the scheduler now marks last_status
as "error" instead of "ok", so the failure is visible in job listings.
Previously, any run that didn't raise an exception was marked "ok" regardless
of whether the agent actually produced output.
When the LLM returns an empty completion, gateway/run.py replaced
final_response with the literal string '(No response generated)'.
This defeated cron/scheduler.py's empty-response skip guard, causing
the placeholder to be delivered to home channels.
Changes:
- gateway/run.py: return empty string instead of placeholder when
there is no error and no response content
- cron/scheduler.py: defensively strip the placeholder text in case
any upstream path still produces it
FixesNousResearch/hermes-agent#9270
update_job() assumed the schedule value was always a pre-parsed dict
and called .get() on it directly. When the API passes a raw string
like "every 10m", this crashed with AttributeError.
The create path already handles this correctly by calling
parse_schedule() on the incoming string. The fix adds the same
normalization to the update path: if the schedule is a string,
parse it into a dict before proceeding.
Closes#10129
* fix(gateway): suppress duplicate replies on interrupt and streaming flood control
Three fixes for the duplicate reply bug affecting all gateway platforms:
1. base.py: Suppress stale response when the session was interrupted by a
new message that hasn't been consumed yet. Checks both interrupt_event
and _pending_messages to avoid false positives. (#8221, #2483)
2. run.py (return path): Remove response_previewed guard from already_sent
check. Stream consumer's already_sent alone is authoritative — if
content was delivered via streaming, the duplicate send must be
suppressed regardless of the agent's response_previewed flag. (#8375)
3. run.py (queued-message path): Same fix — already_sent without
response_previewed now correctly marks the first response as already
streamed, preventing re-send before processing the queued message.
The response_previewed field is still produced by the agent (run_agent.py)
but is no longer required as a gate for duplicate suppression. The stream
consumer's already_sent flag is the delivery-level truth about what the
user actually saw.
Concepts from PR #8380 (konsisumer). Closes#8375, #8221, #2483.
* fix(cron): include job_id in delivery and guide models on removal workflow
Users reported cron reminders keep firing after asking the agent to stop.
Root cause: the conversational agent didn't know the job_id (not in delivery)
and models don't reliably do the list→remove two-step without guidance.
1. Include job_id in the cron delivery wrapper so users and agents can
reference it when requesting removal.
2. Replace confusing footer ('The agent cannot see this message') with
actionable guidance ('To stop or manage this job, send me a new
message').
3. Add explicit list→remove guidance in the cronjob tool schema so models
know to list first and never guess job IDs.
- Rename platform from 'qq' to 'qqbot' across all integration points
(Platform enum, toolset, config keys, import paths, file rename qq.py → qqbot.py)
- Add PLATFORM_HINTS for QQBot in prompt_builder (QQ supports markdown)
- Set SUPPORTS_MESSAGE_EDITING = False to skip streaming on QQ
(prevents duplicate messages from non-editable partial + final sends)
- Add _send_qqbot() standalone send function for cron/send_message tool
- Add interactive _setup_qq() wizard in hermes_cli/setup.py
- Restore missing _setup_signal/email/sms/dingtalk/feishu/wecom/wecom_callback
functions that were lost during the original merge
Rewrite the cronjob tool's 'deliver' parameter description to strongly
guide models toward omitting the parameter (which auto-detects origin
including thread/topic). The previous description listed all platform
names equally, inviting models to construct explicit targets like
'telegram:<chat_id>' which silently drops the thread_id.
New description:
- Leads with 'Omit this parameter' as the recommended path
- Explicitly warns that platform:chat_id without :thread_id loses topics
- Removes the long flat list of platform names that invited construction
Also adds diagnostic logging at two key points:
- _origin_from_env(): logs when thread_id is captured during job creation
- _deliver_result(): warns when origin has thread_id but delivery target
lost it; logs at debug when delivering to a specific thread
Helps diagnose user-reported issue where cron responses from Telegram
topics are delivered to the main chat instead of the originating topic.
On servers with broken or unreachable IPv6, Python's socket.getaddrinfo
returns AAAA records first. urllib/httpx/requests all try IPv6 connections
first and hang for the full TCP timeout before falling back to IPv4. This
affects web_extract, web_search, the OpenAI SDK, and all HTTP tools.
Adds network.force_ipv4 config option (default: false) that monkey-patches
socket.getaddrinfo to resolve as AF_INET when the caller didn't specify a
family. Falls back to full resolution if no A record exists, so pure-IPv6
hosts still work.
Applied early at all three entry points (CLI, gateway, cron scheduler)
before any HTTP clients are created.
Reported by user @29n — Chinese Ubuntu server with unreachable IPv6 causing
timeouts on lobste.rs and other IPv6-enabled sites while Google/GitHub
worked fine (IPv4-only resolution).
Add a second WeCom integration mode for regular enterprise self-built
applications. Unlike the existing bot/websocket adapter (wecom.py),
this handles WeCom's standard callback flow: WeCom POSTs encrypted XML
to an HTTP endpoint, the adapter decrypts, queues for the agent, and
immediately acknowledges. The agent's reply is delivered proactively
via the message/send API.
Key design choice: always acknowledge immediately and use proactive
send — agent sessions take 3-30 minutes, so the 5-second inline reply
window is never useful. The original PR's Future/pending-reply
machinery was removed in favour of this simpler architecture.
Features:
- AES-CBC encrypt/decrypt (BizMsgCrypt-compatible)
- Multi-app routing scoped by corp_id:user_id
- Legacy bare user_id fallback for backward compat
- Access-token management with auto-refresh
- WECOM_CALLBACK_* env var overrides
- Port-in-use pre-check before binding
- Health endpoint at /health
Salvaged from PR #7774 by @chqchshj. Simplified by removing the
inline reply Future system and fixing: secrets.choice for nonce
generation, immediate plain-text acknowledgment (not encrypted XML
containing 'success'), and initial token refresh error handling.
Cron jobs run from whatever directory the scheduler process lives in
(typically the hermes-agent install dir), so without this flag the agent
picks up AGENTS.md, SOUL.md, or .cursorrules from that cwd — injecting
irrelevant project context into the cron job's system prompt.
batch_runner.py and gateway boot_md already pass skip_context_files=True
for the same reason. This aligns cron with the established pattern for
autonomous/headless agent runs.
process_registry.py: _reader_loop() has process.wait() after the try-except
block (line 380). If the reader thread crashes with an unexpected exception
(e.g. MemoryError, KeyboardInterrupt), control exits the except handler but
skips wait() — leaving the child as a zombie process. Move wait() and the
cleanup into a finally block so the child is always reaped.
cron/scheduler.py: _run_job_script() only redacts secrets in stdout on the
SUCCESS path (line 417-421). When a cron script fails (non-zero exit), both
stdout and stderr are returned WITHOUT redaction (lines 407-413). A script
that accidentally prints an API key to stderr during a failure would leak it
into the LLM context. Move redaction before the success/failure branch so
both paths benefit.
skill_commands.py: _build_skill_message() enumerates supporting files using
rglob("*") but only checks is_file() (line 171) without filtering symlinks.
PR #6693 added symlink protection to scan_skill_commands() but missed this
function. A malicious skill can create symlinks in references/ pointing to
arbitrary files, exposing their paths (and potentially content via skill_view)
to the LLM. Add is_symlink() check to match the guard in scan_skill_commands.

1. Add missing `last_delivery_error` field initialization in `create_job()`.
`mark_job_run()` sets this field on line 596 but it was never initialized,
causing inconsistent job schemas between new and executed jobs.
2. Replace unnecessary `save_jobs()` call with a warning log when
`mark_job_run()` is called with a non-existent job_id. Previously the
function would silently write unchanged data to disk.
3. Add `cancel_futures=True` to the `finally` block in cron scheduler's
thread pool shutdown. The `except` path already passes this flag but
the normal exit path did not, leaving futures running after inactivity
timeout detection.
- Remove sys.path.insert hack (leftover from standalone dev)
- Add token lock (acquire_scoped_lock/release_scoped_lock) in
connect()/disconnect() to prevent duplicate pollers across profiles
- Fix get_connected_platforms: WEIXIN check must precede generic
token/api_key check (requires both token AND account_id)
- Add WEIXIN_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME to _EXTRA_ENV_KEYS
- Add gateway setup wizard with QR login flow
- Add platform status check for partially configured state
- Add weixin.md docs page with full adapter documentation
- Update environment-variables.md reference with all 11 env vars
- Update sidebars.ts to include weixin docs page
- Wire all gateway integration points onto current main
Salvaged from PR #6747 by Zihan Huang.
Gateway and cron had inconsistent reasoning_effort resolution:
- CLI: config.yaml only (correct)
- Gateway: config.yaml first, env var fallback
- Cron: env var first, config.yaml fallback
All three now read exclusively from agent.reasoning_effort in config.yaml.
Removed HERMES_REASONING_EFFORT env var support entirely — .env is for
secrets only, not behavioral config.
_deliver_result() now returns Optional[str] — None on success, error
message on failure. All failure paths (unknown platform, platform
disabled, config load error, send failure, unresolvable target)
return descriptive error strings.
mark_job_run() gains delivery_error param, tracked as
last_delivery_error on the job — separate from agent execution errors.
A job where the agent succeeded but delivery failed shows
last_status='ok' + last_delivery_error='...'.
The cronjob list tool now surfaces last_delivery_error so agents and
users can see when cron outputs aren't arriving.
Inspired by PR #5863 (oxngon) — reimplemented with proper wiring.
Tests: 3 new mark_job_run tests + 6 new _deliver_result return tests.
The cron delivery path sent raw 'MEDIA:/path/to/file' text instead
of uploading the file as a native attachment. The standalone path
(via _send_to_platform) already extracted MEDIA tags and forwarded
them as media_files, but the live adapter path passed the unprocessed
delivery_content directly to adapter.send().
Two bugs fixed:
1. Live adapter path now sends cleaned text (MEDIA tags stripped)
instead of raw content — prevents 'MEDIA:/path' from appearing
as literal text in Discord/Telegram/etc.
2. Live adapter path now sends each extracted media file via the
adapter's native method (send_voice for audio, send_image_file
for images, send_video for video, send_document as fallback) —
files are uploaded as proper platform attachments.
The file-type routing mirrors BasePlatformAdapter._process_message_background
to ensure consistent behavior between normal gateway responses and
cron-delivered responses.
Adds 2 tests:
- test_live_adapter_sends_media_as_attachments: verifies Discord
adapter receives send_voice call for .mp3 file
- test_live_adapter_sends_cleaned_text_not_raw: verifies MEDIA tag
stripped from text sent via live adapter
Comprehensive cleanup across 80 files based on automated (ruff, pyflakes, vulture)
and manual analysis of the entire codebase.
Changes by category:
Unused imports removed (~95 across 55 files):
- Removed genuinely unused imports from all major subsystems
- agent/, hermes_cli/, tools/, gateway/, plugins/, cron/
- Includes imports in try/except blocks that were truly unused
(vs availability checks which were left alone)
Unused variables removed (~25):
- Removed dead variables: connected, inner, channels, last_exc,
source, new_server_names, verify, pconfig, default_terminal,
result, pending_handled, temperature, loop
- Dropped unused argparse subparser assignments in hermes_cli/main.py
(12 instances of add_parser() where result was never used)
Dead code removed:
- run_agent.py: Removed dead ternary (None if False else None) and
surrounding unreachable branch in identity fallback
- run_agent.py: Removed write-only attribute _last_reported_tool
- hermes_cli/providers.py: Removed dead @property decorator on
module-level function (decorator has no effect outside a class)
- gateway/run.py: Removed unused MCP config load before reconnect
- gateway/platforms/slack.py: Removed dead SessionSource construction
Undefined name bugs fixed (would cause NameError at runtime):
- batch_runner.py: Added missing logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
- tools/environments/daytona.py: Added missing Dict and Path imports
Unnecessary global statements removed (14):
- tools/terminal_tool.py: 5 functions declared global for dicts
they only mutated via .pop()/[key]=value (no rebinding)
- tools/browser_tool.py: cleanup thread loop only reads flag
- tools/rl_training_tool.py: 4 functions only do dict mutations
- tools/mcp_oauth.py: only reads the global
- hermes_time.py: only reads cached values
Inefficient patterns fixed:
- startswith/endswith tuple form: 15 instances of
x.startswith('a') or x.startswith('b') consolidated to
x.startswith(('a', 'b'))
- len(x)==0 / len(x)>0: 13 instances replaced with pythonic
truthiness checks (not x / bool(x))
- in dict.keys(): 5 instances simplified to in dict
- Redefined unused name: removed duplicate _strip_mdv2 import in
send_message_tool.py
Other fixes:
- hermes_cli/doctor.py: Replaced undefined logger.debug() with pass
- hermes_cli/config.py: Consolidated chained .endswith() calls
Test results: 3934 passed, 17 failed (all pre-existing on main),
19 skipped. Zero regressions.
Previously the scheduler checked startswith('[SILENT]'), so agents that
appended [SILENT] after an explanation (e.g. 'N items filtered.\n\n[SILENT]')
would still trigger delivery.
Change the check to 'in' so the marker is caught regardless of position.
Add test_silent_trailing_suppresses_delivery to cover this case.
The cron scheduler delivery path passed raw text including MEDIA: tags
to _send_to_platform(), so media attachments were delivered as literal
text instead of actual files. The send function already supports
media_files= but the cron path never used it.
Now calls BasePlatformAdapter.extract_media() to split media paths
from text before sending, matching the gateway's normal message flow.
Salvaged from PR #4877 by robert-hoffmann.
Cron agents were burning iterations trying to use send_message (which is
disabled via messaging toolset) because their prompts said things like
'send the report to Telegram'. The scheduler handles delivery
automatically via the deliver setting, but nothing told the agent that.
Add a delivery guidance hint to _build_job_prompt alongside the existing
[SILENT] hint: tells agents their final response is auto-delivered and
they should NOT use send_message.
Before: only [SILENT] suppression hint
After: delivery guidance ('do NOT use send_message') + [SILENT] hint
Port the gateway's inactivity-based timeout pattern (PR #5389) to the
cron scheduler. The agent can now run for hours if it's actively calling
tools or receiving stream tokens — only genuine inactivity (no activity
for HERMES_CRON_TIMEOUT seconds, default 600s) triggers a timeout.
This fixes the Sunday PR scouts (openclaw, nanoclaw, ironclaw) which
all hit the hard 600s wall-clock limit while actively working.
Changes:
- Replace flat future.result(timeout=N) with a polling loop that checks
agent.get_activity_summary() every 5s (same pattern as gateway)
- Timeout error now includes diagnostic info: last activity description,
idle duration, current tool, iteration count
- HERMES_CRON_TIMEOUT=0 means unlimited (no timeout)
- Move sys.path.insert before repo-level imports to fix
ModuleNotFoundError for hermes_time on stale gateway processes
- Add time import needed by the polling loop
- Add 9 tests covering active/idle/unlimited/env-var/diagnostic scenarios
Salvaged from PRs #3767 (chalkers), #5236 (ygd58), #2641 (buntingszn).
Three improvements to Matrix cron delivery:
1. Live adapter path: when the gateway is running, cron delivery now uses
the connected MatrixAdapter via run_coroutine_threadsafe instead of
the standalone HTTP PUT. This enables delivery to E2EE rooms where
the raw HTTP path cannot encrypt. Falls back to standalone on failure.
Threads adapters + event loop from gateway -> cron ticker -> tick() ->
_deliver_result(). (from #3767)
2. HTML formatted_body: _send_matrix() now converts markdown to HTML
using the optional markdown library, with h1-h6 to bold conversion
for Element X compatibility. Falls back to plain text if markdown
is not installed. Also adds random bytes to txn_id to prevent
collisions. (from #5236)
3. Origin fallback: when deliver="origin" but origin is null (jobs
created via API/scripts), falls back to HOME_CHANNEL env vars
in order: matrix -> telegram -> discord -> slack. (from #2641)
Relative script paths resolved against HERMES_HOME/scripts/ were not
validated to stay within that directory. Paths like '../../etc/passwd'
could escape and be executed as Python.
Fix: resolve the path and verify it stays within scripts_dir using
Path.relative_to(). Also apply redact_sensitive_text() to script stdout
before LLM injection — same pattern as execute_code sandbox output.
Cherry-picked from PR #5093 by memosr (fixes 1 and 3; absolute path
restriction dropped as too restrictive for the feature's design intent).
Add an optional 'script' parameter to cron jobs that references a Python
script. The script runs before each agent turn, and its stdout is injected
into the prompt as context. This enables stateful monitoring — the script
handles data collection and change detection, the LLM analyzes and reports.
- cron/jobs.py: add script field to create_job(), stored in job dict
- cron/scheduler.py: add _run_job_script() executor with timeout handling,
inject script output/errors into _build_job_prompt()
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: add script to tool schema, create/update handlers,
_format_job display
- hermes_cli/cron.py: add --script to create/edit, display in list/edit output
- hermes_cli/main.py: add --script argparse for cron create/edit subcommands
- tests/cron/test_cron_script.py: 20 tests covering job CRUD, script
execution, path resolution, error handling, prompt injection, tool API
Script paths can be absolute or relative (resolved against ~/.hermes/scripts/).
Scripts run with a 120s timeout. Failures are injected as error context so
the LLM can report the problem. Empty string clears an attached script.
- Fix cron ThreadPoolExecutor blocking on timeout: use shutdown(wait=False,
cancel_futures=True) instead of context manager that waits indefinitely
- Extract _dequeue_pending_text() to deduplicate media-placeholder logic
in interrupt and normal-completion dequeue paths
- Remove hasattr guards for _running_agents_ts: add class-level default
so partial test construction works without scattered defensive checks
- Move `import concurrent.futures` to top of cron/scheduler.py
- Progress throttle: sleep remaining interval instead of busy-looping
0.1s (~15 wakeups per 1.5s window → 1 wakeup)
- Deduplicate _load_stt_config() in transcription_tools.py:
_has_openai_audio_backend() now delegates to _resolve_openai_audio_client_config()
Three changes to prevent sessions from getting permanently locked:
1. Agent execution timeout (HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT, default 10min):
Wraps run_in_executor with asyncio.wait_for so a hung API call or
runaway tool can't lock a session indefinitely. On timeout, the
agent is interrupted and the user gets an actionable error message.
2. Staleness eviction for _running_agents:
Tracks start timestamps for each session entry. When a new message
arrives and the entry is older than timeout + 1min grace, it's
evicted as a leaked lock. Safety net for any cleanup path that
fails to remove the entry.
3. Cron job timeout (HERMES_CRON_TIMEOUT, default 10min):
Wraps run_conversation in a ThreadPoolExecutor with timeout so a
hung cron job doesn't block the ticker thread (and all subsequent
cron jobs) indefinitely.
Follows grammY runner's per-update timeout pattern and aiogram's
asyncio.wait_for approach for handler deadlines.
* feat(memory): add pluggable memory provider interface with profile isolation
Introduces a pluggable MemoryProvider ABC so external memory backends can
integrate with Hermes without modifying core files. Each backend becomes a
plugin implementing a standard interface, orchestrated by MemoryManager.
Key architecture:
- agent/memory_provider.py — ABC with core + optional lifecycle hooks
- agent/memory_manager.py — single integration point in the agent loop
- agent/builtin_memory_provider.py — wraps existing MEMORY.md/USER.md
Profile isolation fixes applied to all 6 shipped plugins:
- Cognitive Memory: use get_hermes_home() instead of raw env var
- Hindsight Memory: check $HERMES_HOME/hindsight/config.json first,
fall back to legacy ~/.hindsight/ for backward compat
- Hermes Memory Store: replace hardcoded ~/.hermes paths with
get_hermes_home() for config loading and DB path defaults
- Mem0 Memory: use get_hermes_home() instead of raw env var
- RetainDB Memory: auto-derive profile-scoped project name from
hermes_home path (hermes-<profile>), explicit env var overrides
- OpenViking Memory: read-only, no local state, isolation via .env
MemoryManager.initialize_all() now injects hermes_home into kwargs so
every provider can resolve profile-scoped storage without importing
get_hermes_home() themselves.
Plugin system: adds register_memory_provider() to PluginContext and
get_plugin_memory_providers() accessor.
Based on PR #3825. 46 tests (37 unit + 5 E2E + 4 plugin registration).
* refactor(memory): drop cognitive plugin, rewrite OpenViking as full provider
Remove cognitive-memory plugin (#727) — core mechanics are broken:
decay runs 24x too fast (hourly not daily), prefetch uses row ID as
timestamp, search limited by importance not similarity.
Rewrite openviking-memory plugin from a read-only search wrapper into
a full bidirectional memory provider using the complete OpenViking
session lifecycle API:
- sync_turn: records user/assistant messages to OpenViking session
(threaded, non-blocking)
- on_session_end: commits session to trigger automatic memory extraction
into 6 categories (profile, preferences, entities, events, cases,
patterns)
- prefetch: background semantic search via find() endpoint
- on_memory_write: mirrors built-in memory writes to the session
- is_available: checks env var only, no network calls (ABC compliance)
Tools expanded from 3 to 5:
- viking_search: semantic search with mode/scope/limit
- viking_read: tiered content (abstract ~100tok / overview ~2k / full)
- viking_browse: filesystem-style navigation (list/tree/stat)
- viking_remember: explicit memory storage via session
- viking_add_resource: ingest URLs/docs into knowledge base
Uses direct HTTP via httpx (no openviking SDK dependency needed).
Response truncation on viking_read to prevent context flooding.
* fix(memory): harden Mem0 plugin — thread safety, non-blocking sync, circuit breaker
- Remove redundant mem0_context tool (identical to mem0_search with
rerank=true, top_k=5 — wastes a tool slot and confuses the model)
- Thread sync_turn so it's non-blocking — Mem0's server-side LLM
extraction can take 5-10s, was stalling the agent after every turn
- Add threading.Lock around _get_client() for thread-safe lazy init
(prefetch and sync threads could race on first client creation)
- Add circuit breaker: after 5 consecutive API failures, pause calls
for 120s instead of hammering a down server every turn. Auto-resets
after cooldown. Logs a warning when tripped.
- Track success/failure in prefetch, sync_turn, and all tool calls
- Wait for previous sync to finish before starting a new one (prevents
unbounded thread accumulation on rapid turns)
- Clean up shutdown to join both prefetch and sync threads
* fix(memory): enforce single external memory provider limit
MemoryManager now rejects a second non-builtin provider with a warning.
Built-in memory (MEMORY.md/USER.md) is always accepted. Only ONE
external plugin provider is allowed at a time. This prevents tool
schema bloat (some providers add 3-5 tools each) and conflicting
memory backends.
The warning message directs users to configure memory.provider in
config.yaml to select which provider to activate.
Updated all 47 tests to use builtin + one external pattern instead
of multiple externals. Added test_second_external_rejected to verify
the enforcement.
* feat(memory): add ByteRover memory provider plugin
Implements the ByteRover integration (from PR #3499 by hieuntg81) as a
MemoryProvider plugin instead of direct run_agent.py modifications.
ByteRover provides persistent memory via the brv CLI — a hierarchical
knowledge tree with tiered retrieval (fuzzy text then LLM-driven search).
Local-first with optional cloud sync.
Plugin capabilities:
- prefetch: background brv query for relevant context
- sync_turn: curate conversation turns (threaded, non-blocking)
- on_memory_write: mirror built-in memory writes to brv
- on_pre_compress: extract insights before context compression
Tools (3):
- brv_query: search the knowledge tree
- brv_curate: store facts/decisions/patterns
- brv_status: check CLI version and context tree state
Profile isolation: working directory at $HERMES_HOME/byterover/ (scoped
per profile). Binary resolution cached with thread-safe double-checked
locking. All write operations threaded to avoid blocking the agent
(curate can take 120s with LLM processing).
* fix(memory): thread remaining sync_turns, fix holographic, add config key
Plugin fixes:
- Hindsight: thread sync_turn (was blocking up to 30s via _run_in_thread)
- RetainDB: thread sync_turn (was blocking on HTTP POST)
- Both: shutdown now joins sync threads alongside prefetch threads
Holographic retrieval fixes:
- reason(): removed dead intersection_key computation (bundled but never
used in scoring). Now reuses pre-computed entity_residuals directly,
moved role_content encoding outside the inner loop.
- contradict(): added _MAX_CONTRADICT_FACTS=500 scaling guard. Above
500 facts, only checks the most recently updated ones to avoid O(n^2)
explosion (~125K comparisons at 500 is acceptable).
Config:
- Added memory.provider key to DEFAULT_CONFIG ("" = builtin only).
No version bump needed (deep_merge handles new keys automatically).
* feat(memory): extract Honcho as a MemoryProvider plugin
Creates plugins/honcho-memory/ as a thin adapter over the existing
honcho_integration/ package. All 4 Honcho tools (profile, search,
context, conclude) move from the normal tool registry to the
MemoryProvider interface.
The plugin delegates all work to HonchoSessionManager — no Honcho
logic is reimplemented. It uses the existing config chain:
$HERMES_HOME/honcho.json -> ~/.honcho/config.json -> env vars.
Lifecycle hooks:
- initialize: creates HonchoSessionManager via existing client factory
- prefetch: background dialectic query
- sync_turn: records messages + flushes to API (threaded)
- on_memory_write: mirrors user profile writes as conclusions
- on_session_end: flushes all pending messages
This is a prerequisite for the MemoryManager wiring in run_agent.py.
Once wired, Honcho goes through the same provider interface as all
other memory plugins, and the scattered Honcho code in run_agent.py
can be consolidated into the single MemoryManager integration point.
* feat(memory): wire MemoryManager into run_agent.py
Adds 8 integration points for the external memory provider plugin,
all purely additive (zero existing code modified):
1. Init (~L1130): Create MemoryManager, find matching plugin provider
from memory.provider config, initialize with session context
2. Tool injection (~L1160): Append provider tool schemas to self.tools
and self.valid_tool_names after memory_manager init
3. System prompt (~L2705): Add external provider's system_prompt_block
alongside existing MEMORY.md/USER.md blocks
4. Tool routing (~L5362): Route provider tool calls through
memory_manager.handle_tool_call() before the catchall handler
5. Memory write bridge (~L5353): Notify external provider via
on_memory_write() when the built-in memory tool writes
6. Pre-compress (~L5233): Call on_pre_compress() before context
compression discards messages
7. Prefetch (~L6421): Inject provider prefetch results into the
current-turn user message (same pattern as Honcho turn context)
8. Turn sync + session end (~L8161, ~L8172): sync_all() after each
completed turn, queue_prefetch_all() for next turn, on_session_end()
+ shutdown_all() at conversation end
All hooks are wrapped in try/except — a failing provider never breaks
the agent. The existing memory system, Honcho integration, and all
other code paths are completely untouched.
Full suite: 7222 passed, 4 pre-existing failures.
* refactor(memory): remove legacy Honcho integration from core
Extracts all Honcho-specific code from run_agent.py, model_tools.py,
toolsets.py, and gateway/run.py. Honcho is now exclusively available
as a memory provider plugin (plugins/honcho-memory/).
Removed from run_agent.py (-457 lines):
- Honcho init block (session manager creation, activation, config)
- 8 Honcho methods: _honcho_should_activate, _strip_honcho_tools,
_activate_honcho, _register_honcho_exit_hook, _queue_honcho_prefetch,
_honcho_prefetch, _honcho_save_user_observation, _honcho_sync
- _inject_honcho_turn_context module-level function
- Honcho system prompt block (tool descriptions, CLI commands)
- Honcho context injection in api_messages building
- Honcho params from __init__ (honcho_session_key, honcho_manager,
honcho_config)
- HONCHO_TOOL_NAMES constant
- All honcho-specific tool dispatch forwarding
Removed from other files:
- model_tools.py: honcho_tools import, honcho params from handle_function_call
- toolsets.py: honcho toolset definition, honcho tools from core tools list
- gateway/run.py: honcho params from AIAgent constructor calls
Removed tests (-339 lines):
- 9 Honcho-specific test methods from test_run_agent.py
- TestHonchoAtexitFlush class from test_exit_cleanup_interrupt.py
Restored two regex constants (_SURROGATE_RE, _BUDGET_WARNING_RE) that
were accidentally removed during the honcho function extraction.
The honcho_integration/ package is kept intact — the plugin delegates
to it. tools/honcho_tools.py registry entries are now dead code (import
commented out in model_tools.py) but the file is preserved for reference.
Full suite: 7207 passed, 4 pre-existing failures. Zero regressions.
* refactor(memory): restructure plugins, add CLI, clean gateway, migration notice
Plugin restructure:
- Move all memory plugins from plugins/<name>-memory/ to plugins/memory/<name>/
(byterover, hindsight, holographic, honcho, mem0, openviking, retaindb)
- New plugins/memory/__init__.py discovery module that scans the directory
directly, loading providers by name without the general plugin system
- run_agent.py uses load_memory_provider() instead of get_plugin_memory_providers()
CLI wiring:
- hermes memory setup — interactive curses picker + config wizard
- hermes memory status — show active provider, config, availability
- hermes memory off — disable external provider (built-in only)
- hermes honcho — now shows migration notice pointing to hermes memory setup
Gateway cleanup:
- Remove _get_or_create_gateway_honcho (already removed in prev commit)
- Remove _shutdown_gateway_honcho and _shutdown_all_gateway_honcho methods
- Remove all calls to shutdown methods (4 call sites)
- Remove _honcho_managers/_honcho_configs dict references
Dead code removal:
- Delete tools/honcho_tools.py (279 lines, import was already commented out)
- Delete tests/gateway/test_honcho_lifecycle.py (131 lines, tested removed methods)
- Remove if False placeholder from run_agent.py
Migration:
- Honcho migration notice on startup: detects existing honcho.json or
~/.honcho/config.json, prints guidance to run hermes memory setup.
Only fires when memory.provider is not set and not in quiet mode.
Full suite: 7203 passed, 4 pre-existing failures. Zero regressions.
* feat(memory): standardize plugin config + add per-plugin documentation
Config architecture:
- Add save_config(values, hermes_home) to MemoryProvider ABC
- Honcho: writes to $HERMES_HOME/honcho.json (SDK native)
- Mem0: writes to $HERMES_HOME/mem0.json
- Hindsight: writes to $HERMES_HOME/hindsight/config.json
- Holographic: writes to config.yaml under plugins.hermes-memory-store
- OpenViking/RetainDB/ByteRover: env-var only (default no-op)
Setup wizard (hermes memory setup):
- Now calls provider.save_config() for non-secret config
- Secrets still go to .env via env vars
- Only memory.provider activation key goes to config.yaml
Documentation:
- README.md for each of the 7 providers in plugins/memory/<name>/
- Requirements, setup (wizard + manual), config reference, tools table
- Consistent format across all providers
The contract for new memory plugins:
- get_config_schema() declares all fields (REQUIRED)
- save_config() writes native config (REQUIRED if not env-var-only)
- Secrets use env_var field in schema, written to .env by wizard
- README.md in the plugin directory
* docs: add memory providers user guide + developer guide
New pages:
- user-guide/features/memory-providers.md — comprehensive guide covering
all 7 shipped providers (Honcho, OpenViking, Mem0, Hindsight,
Holographic, RetainDB, ByteRover). Each with setup, config, tools,
cost, and unique features. Includes comparison table and profile
isolation notes.
- developer-guide/memory-provider-plugin.md — how to build a new memory
provider plugin. Covers ABC, required methods, config schema,
save_config, threading contract, profile isolation, testing.
Updated pages:
- user-guide/features/memory.md — replaced Honcho section with link to
new Memory Providers page
- user-guide/features/honcho.md — replaced with migration redirect to
the new Memory Providers page
- sidebars.ts — added both new pages to navigation
* fix(memory): auto-migrate Honcho users to memory provider plugin
When honcho.json or ~/.honcho/config.json exists but memory.provider
is not set, automatically set memory.provider: honcho in config.yaml
and activate the plugin. The plugin reads the same config files, so
all data and credentials are preserved. Zero user action needed.
Persists the migration to config.yaml so it only fires once. Prints
a one-line confirmation in non-quiet mode.
* fix(memory): only auto-migrate Honcho when enabled + credentialed
Check HonchoClientConfig.enabled AND (api_key OR base_url) before
auto-migrating — not just file existence. Prevents false activation
for users who disabled Honcho, stopped using it (config lingers),
or have ~/.honcho/ from a different tool.
* feat(memory): auto-install pip dependencies during hermes memory setup
Reads pip_dependencies from plugin.yaml, checks which are missing,
installs them via pip before config walkthrough. Also shows install
guidance for external_dependencies (e.g. brv CLI for ByteRover).
Updated all 7 plugin.yaml files with pip_dependencies:
- honcho: honcho-ai
- mem0: mem0ai
- openviking: httpx
- hindsight: hindsight-client
- holographic: (none)
- retaindb: requests
- byterover: (external_dependencies for brv CLI)
* fix: remove remaining Honcho crash risks from cli.py and gateway
cli.py: removed Honcho session re-mapping block (would crash importing
deleted tools/honcho_tools.py), Honcho flush on compress, Honcho
session display on startup, Honcho shutdown on exit, honcho_session_key
AIAgent param.
gateway/run.py: removed honcho_session_key params from helper methods,
sync_honcho param, _honcho.shutdown() block.
tests: fixed test_cron_session_with_honcho_key_skipped (was passing
removed honcho_key param to _flush_memories_for_session).
* fix: include plugins/ in pyproject.toml package list
Without this, plugins/memory/ wouldn't be included in non-editable
installs. Hermes always runs from the repo checkout so this is belt-
and-suspenders, but prevents breakage if the install method changes.
* fix(memory): correct pip-to-import name mapping for dep checks
The heuristic dep.replace('-', '_') fails for packages where the pip
name differs from the import name: honcho-ai→honcho, mem0ai→mem0,
hindsight-client→hindsight_client. Added explicit mapping table so
hermes memory setup doesn't try to reinstall already-installed packages.
* chore: remove dead code from old plugin memory registration path
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: removed register_memory_provider(),
_memory_providers list, get_plugin_memory_providers() — memory
providers now use plugins/memory/ discovery, not the general plugin system
- hermes_cli/main.py: stripped 74 lines of dead honcho argparse
subparsers (setup, status, sessions, map, peer, mode, tokens,
identity, migrate) — kept only the migration redirect
- agent/memory_provider.py: updated docstring to reflect new
registration path
- tests: replaced TestPluginMemoryProviderRegistration with
TestPluginMemoryDiscovery that tests the actual plugins/memory/
discovery system. Added 3 new tests (discover, load, nonexistent).
* chore: delete dead honcho_integration/cli.py and its tests
cli.py (794 lines) was the old 'hermes honcho' command handler — nobody
calls it since cmd_honcho was replaced with a migration redirect.
Deleted tests that imported from removed code:
- tests/honcho_integration/test_cli.py (tested _resolve_api_key)
- tests/honcho_integration/test_config_isolation.py (tested CLI config paths)
- tests/tools/test_honcho_tools.py (tested the deleted tools/honcho_tools.py)
Remaining honcho_integration/ files (actively used by the plugin):
- client.py (445 lines) — config loading, SDK client creation
- session.py (991 lines) — session management, queries, flush
* refactor: move honcho_integration/ into the honcho plugin
Moves client.py (445 lines) and session.py (991 lines) from the
top-level honcho_integration/ package into plugins/memory/honcho/.
No Honcho code remains in the main codebase.
- plugins/memory/honcho/client.py — config loading, SDK client creation
- plugins/memory/honcho/session.py — session management, queries, flush
- Updated all imports: run_agent.py (auto-migration), hermes_cli/doctor.py,
plugin __init__.py, session.py cross-import, all tests
- Removed honcho_integration/ package and pyproject.toml entry
- Renamed tests/honcho_integration/ → tests/honcho_plugin/
* docs: update architecture + gateway-internals for memory provider system
- architecture.md: replaced honcho_integration/ with plugins/memory/
- gateway-internals.md: replaced Honcho-specific session routing and
flush lifecycle docs with generic memory provider interface docs
* fix: update stale mock path for resolve_active_host after honcho plugin migration
* fix(memory): address review feedback — P0 lifecycle, ABC contract, honcho CLI restore
Review feedback from Honcho devs (erosika):
P0 — Provider lifecycle:
- Remove on_session_end() + shutdown_all() from run_conversation() tail
(was killing providers after every turn in multi-turn sessions)
- Add shutdown_memory_provider() method on AIAgent for callers
- Wire shutdown into CLI atexit, reset_conversation, gateway stop/expiry
Bug fixes:
- Remove sync_honcho=False kwarg from /btw callsites (TypeError crash)
- Fix doctor.py references to dead 'hermes honcho setup' command
- Cache prefetch_all() before tool loop (was re-calling every iteration)
ABC contract hardening (all backwards-compatible):
- Add session_id kwarg to prefetch/sync_turn/queue_prefetch
- Make on_pre_compress() return str (provider insights in compression)
- Add **kwargs to on_turn_start() for runtime context
- Add on_delegation() hook for parent-side subagent observation
- Document agent_context/agent_identity/agent_workspace kwargs on
initialize() (prevents cron corruption, enables profile scoping)
- Fix docstring: single external provider, not multiple
Honcho CLI restoration:
- Add plugins/memory/honcho/cli.py (from main's honcho_integration/cli.py
with imports adapted to plugin path)
- Restore full hermes honcho command with all subcommands (status, peer,
mode, tokens, identity, enable/disable, sync, peers, --target-profile)
- Restore auto-clone on profile creation + sync on hermes update
- hermes honcho setup now redirects to hermes memory setup
* fix(memory): wire on_delegation, skip_memory for cron/flush, fix ByteRover return type
- Wire on_delegation() in delegate_tool.py — parent's memory provider
is notified with task+result after each subagent completes
- Add skip_memory=True to cron scheduler (prevents cron system prompts
from corrupting user representations — closes#4052)
- Add skip_memory=True to gateway flush agent (throwaway agent shouldn't
activate memory provider)
- Fix ByteRover on_pre_compress() return type: None -> str
* fix(honcho): port profile isolation fixes from PR #4632
Ports 5 bug fixes found during profile testing (erosika's PR #4632):
1. 3-tier config resolution — resolve_config_path() now checks
$HERMES_HOME/honcho.json → ~/.hermes/honcho.json → ~/.honcho/config.json
(non-default profiles couldn't find shared host blocks)
2. Thread host=_host_key() through from_global_config() in cmd_setup,
cmd_status, cmd_identity (--target-profile was being ignored)
3. Use bare profile name as aiPeer (not host key with dots) — Honcho's
peer ID pattern is ^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$, dots are invalid
4. Wrap add_peers() in try/except — was fatal on new AI peers, killed
all message uploads for the session
5. Gate Honcho clone behind --clone/--clone-all on profile create
(bare create should be blank-slate)
Also: sanitize assistant_peer_id via _sanitize_id()
* fix(tests): add module cleanup fixture to test_cli_provider_resolution
test_cli_provider_resolution._import_cli() wipes tools.*, cli, and
run_agent from sys.modules to force fresh imports, but had no cleanup.
This poisoned all subsequent tests on the same xdist worker — mocks
targeting tools.file_tools, tools.send_message_tool, etc. patched the
NEW module object while already-imported functions still referenced
the OLD one. Caused ~25 cascade failures: send_message KeyError,
process_registry FileNotFoundError, file_read_guards timeouts,
read_loop_detection file-not-found, mcp_oauth None port, and
provider_parity/codex_execution stale tool lists.
Fix: autouse fixture saves all affected modules before each test and
restores them after, matching the pattern in
test_managed_browserbase_and_modal.py.
The model was interpreting [SILENT] as a metadata prefix and writing
full reports with [SILENT] slapped at the front. The old instruction
said 'optionally followed by a brief internal note' which gave too
much room. New instruction explicitly says: [SILENT] means nothing
else, do NOT combine it with a report.
Adds WeCom as a gateway platform adapter using the AI Bot WebSocket
gateway for real-time bidirectional communication. No public endpoint
or new pip dependencies needed (uses existing aiohttp + httpx).
Features:
- WebSocket persistent connection with auto-reconnect (exponential backoff)
- DM and group messaging with configurable access policies
- Media upload/download with AES decryption for encrypted attachments
- Markdown rendering, quote context preservation
- Proactive + passive reply message modes
- Chunked media upload pipeline (512KB chunks)
Cherry-picked from PR #1898 by EvilRan with:
- Moved to current main (PR was 300 commits behind)
- Skipped base.py regressions (reply_to additions are good but belong
in a separate PR since they affect all platforms)
- Fixed test assertions to match current base class send() signature
(reply_to=None kwarg now explicit)
- All 16 integration points added surgically to current main
- No new pip dependencies (aiohttp + httpx already installed)
Fixes#1898

Cron jobs configured with deliver labels from send_message(action='list')
like 'whatsapp:Alice (dm)' passed the label as a literal chat_id.
WhatsApp bridge failed with jidDecode error since 'Alice (dm)' isn't
a valid JID.
Now _resolve_delivery_target() strips display suffixes like ' (dm)' and
resolves human-friendly names via the channel directory before using
them. Raw IDs pass through unchanged when the directory has no match.
Fixes#1945.
Previously, when no API keys or provider credentials were found, Hermes
silently defaulted to OpenRouter + Claude Opus. This caused confusion
when users configured local servers (LM Studio, Ollama, etc.) with a
typo or unrecognized provider name — the system would silently route to
OpenRouter instead of telling them something was wrong.
Changes:
- resolve_provider() now raises AuthError when no credentials are found
instead of returning 'openrouter' as a silent fallback
- Added local server aliases: lmstudio, ollama, vllm, llamacpp → custom
- Removed hardcoded 'anthropic/claude-opus-4.6' fallback from gateway
and cron scheduler (they read from config.yaml instead)
- Updated cli-config.yaml.example with complete provider documentation
including all supported providers, aliases, and local server setup
Adds Feishu (ByteDance's enterprise messaging platform) as a gateway
platform adapter with full feature parity: WebSocket + webhook transports,
message batching, dedup, rate limiting, rich post/card content parsing,
media handling (images/audio/files/video), group @mention gating,
reaction routing, and interactive card button support.
Cherry-picked from PR #1793 by penwyp with:
- Moved to current main (PR was 458 commits behind)
- Fixed _send_with_retry shadowing BasePlatformAdapter method (renamed to
_feishu_send_with_retry to avoid signature mismatch crash)
- Fixed import structure: aiohttp/websockets imported independently of
lark_oapi so they remain available when SDK is missing
- Fixed get_hermes_home import (hermes_constants, not hermes_cli.config)
- Added skip decorators for tests requiring lark_oapi SDK
- All 16 integration points added surgically to current main
New dependency: lark-oapi>=1.5.3,<2 (optional, pip install hermes-agent[feishu])
Fixes#1788

Adds a config option to suppress the header/footer text that wraps
cron job responses when delivered to messaging platforms.
Set cron.wrap_response: false in config.yaml for clean output without
the 'Cronjob Response: <name>' header and 'The agent cannot see this
message' footer. Default is true (preserves current behavior).
load_jobs() uses strict json.load() which rejects bare control characters
(e.g. literal newlines) in JSON string values. When a cron job prompt
contains such characters, the parser throws JSONDecodeError and the
function silently returns an empty list — causing ALL scheduled jobs
to stop firing with no error logged.
Fix: on JSONDecodeError, retry with json.loads(strict=False). If jobs
are recovered, auto-rewrite the file with proper escaping via save_jobs()
and log a warning. Only fall back to empty list if the JSON is truly
unrecoverable.

When a gateway crashes mid-job execution (before mark_job_run can persist
the updated next_run_at), the job would fire again on every restart attempt
within the grace window. For a daily 6:15 AM job with a 2-hour grace,
rapidly restarting the gateway could trigger dozens of duplicate runs.
Fix: call advance_next_run() BEFORE run_job() in tick(). For recurring
jobs (cron/interval), this preemptively advances next_run_at to the next
future occurrence and persists it to disk. If the process then crashes
during execution, the job won't be considered due on restart.
One-shot jobs are left unchanged — they still retry on restart since
there's no future occurrence to advance to.
This changes the scheduler from at-least-once to at-most-once semantics
for recurring jobs, which is the correct tradeoff: missing one daily
message is far better than sending it dozens of times.
except Exception does not catch KeyboardInterrupt (inherits from
BaseException). A second Ctrl+C during exit cleanup aborts pending
writes — Honcho observations dropped, SQLite sessions left unclosed,
cron job sessions never marked ended.
Changed to except (Exception, KeyboardInterrupt) at all five sites:
- cli.py: honcho.shutdown() and end_session() in finally exit block
- run_agent.py: _flush_honcho_on_exit atexit handler
- cron/scheduler.py: end_session() and close() in job finally block
Tests exercise the actual production code paths and confirm
KeyboardInterrupt propagates without the fix.

Centralizes two widely-duplicated patterns into hermes_constants.py:
1. get_hermes_home() — Path resolution for ~/.hermes (HERMES_HOME env var)
- Was copy-pasted inline across 30+ files as:
Path(os.getenv("HERMES_HOME", Path.home() / ".hermes"))
- Now defined once in hermes_constants.py (zero-dependency module)
- hermes_cli/config.py re-exports it for backward compatibility
- Removed local wrapper functions in honcho_integration/client.py,
tools/website_policy.py, tools/tirith_security.py, hermes_cli/uninstall.py
2. parse_reasoning_effort() — Reasoning effort string validation
- Was copy-pasted in cli.py, gateway/run.py, cron/scheduler.py
- Same validation logic: check against (xhigh, high, medium, low, minimal, none)
- Now defined once in hermes_constants.py, called from all 3 locations
- Warning log for unknown values kept at call sites (context-specific)

Cron was the only execution path that never called end_session(),
leaving ended_at = NULL permanently. This made cron sessions invisible
to hermes prune --older-than and indistinguishable from active sessions.
Captures session_id in a local variable before agent construction so
it's available in the finally block even if AIAgent() fails, then calls
end_session(session_id, 'cron_complete') before close().
Cherry-picked from PR #2979 by ygd58. Fixed bug: original PR called
end_session() with zero arguments (TypeError — method requires
session_id and end_reason).
Fixes#2972.

Parse thread_id from explicit deliver target (e.g. telegram:-1003724596514:17)
and forward it to _send_to_platform and mirror_to_session.
Previously _resolve_delivery_target() always set thread_id=None when
parsing the platform:chat_id format, breaking cron job delivery to
specific Telegram topics.
Added tests:
- test_explicit_telegram_topic_target_with_thread_id
- test_explicit_telegram_chat_id_without_thread_id
Also updated CRONJOB_SCHEMA deliver description to document the
platform:chat_id:thread_id format.

Replace hardcoded 120-second grace period with a dynamic window that
scales with the job's scheduling frequency (half the period, clamped
to [120s, 2h]). Daily jobs now catch up if missed by up to 2 hours
instead of being silently skipped after just 2 minutes.
Fixes#2234
The placeholder '(No response generated)' was overwriting the actual
final_response, causing it to be delivered to Discord even when the
agent completed work silently via tools.
Changes:
- Separate logged_response for output template display
- Keep final_response clean (empty when agent has no text)
- Delivery logic now correctly skips when final_response is empty
Test added to verify empty response stays empty for delivery.

Cherry-picked from PR #2290 by @Mibayy. Closes#2138.
When asyncio.run() raises RuntimeError (running loop exists), the
coroutine was created but never awaited, producing a RuntimeWarning
on GC. Extract coro before try, call coro.close() in the except
branch before falling back to ThreadPoolExecutor.
Cron deliveries were mirrored into the target gateway session as
assistant-role messages, causing consecutive assistant messages that
violate message alternation (issue #2221).
Instead of fixing the role, remove the mirror injection entirely.
Cron outputs already live in their own cron session and don't belong
in the interactive conversation history.
Delivered messages are now wrapped with a header (task name) and a
footer noting the agent cannot see or respond to the message, so
users have clear context about what they're reading.
Closes#2221
Matrix, Mattermost, Home Assistant, and DingTalk were missing from the
platform_map in both cron/scheduler.py and tools/send_message_tool.py,
causing delivery to those platforms to silently fail.
Also updates the cronjob tool schema description to list all available
delivery targets so the model knows its options.
Matrix is a supported gateway platform but was missing from the
cron scheduler's delivery platform_map, causing cron job results
to silently fail delivery when targeting Matrix rooms.

Cron jobs run unattended with no user present. Previously the agent had
send_message and clarify tools available, which makes no sense — the
final response is auto-delivered, and there's nobody to ask questions to.
Changes:
- Disable messaging and clarify toolsets for cron agent sessions
- Update cron platform hint to emphasize autonomous execution: no user
present, cannot ask questions, must execute fully and make decisions
- Update cronjob tool schema description to match (remove stale
send_message guidance)
When a cron job references a skill that is no longer installed,
_build_job_prompt() now logs a warning and injects a user-visible notice
into the prompt instead of raising RuntimeError. The job continues with
any remaining valid skills and the user prompt.
Adds 4 regression tests for missing skill handling.
Add first-class GitHub Copilot and Copilot ACP provider support across
model selection, runtime provider resolution, CLI sessions, delegated
subagents, cron jobs, and the Telegram gateway.
This also normalizes Copilot model catalogs and API modes, introduces a
Copilot ACP OpenAI-compatible shim, and fixes service-mode auth by
resolving Homebrew-installed gh binaries under launchd.

Every cron job prompt now includes guidance that the agent can respond
with [SILENT] when it has nothing new or noteworthy to report. The
scheduler checks for this marker and skips delivery, while still saving
output to disk for audit. Failed jobs always deliver regardless.
This replaces the notify parameter approach from PR #1807 with a simpler
always-on design — the model is smart enough to decide when there's
nothing worth reporting without needing a per-job flag.
User-provided ISO timestamps like '2026-02-03T14:00' (no timezone)
were stored naive. The _ensure_aware() helper at check time interprets
naive datetimes using the current system timezone, but if the system
timezone changes between job creation and checking, the job fires at
the wrong time.
Fix: call dt.astimezone() at parse time to immediately stamp the
datetime with the local timezone. The stored value is now always
timezone-aware, so it's stable regardless of later timezone changes.
get_due_jobs() called load_jobs() twice: once for filtering (with
_apply_skill_fields) and once for saving updates. Between the two
reads, another process could modify jobs.json, causing the filtering
and saving to operate on different versions.
Fix: load once, deepcopy for the skill-applied working list.
