The AIAgent.flush_memories pre-compression save, the gateway
_flush_memories_for_session, and everything feeding them are
obsolete now that the background memory/skill review handles
persistent memory extraction.
Problems with flush_memories:
- Pre-dates the background review loop. It was the only memory-save
path when introduced; the background review now fires every 10 user
turns on CLI and gateway alike, which is far more frequent than
compression or session reset ever triggered flush.
- Blocking and synchronous. Pre-compression flush ran on the live agent
before compression, blocking the user-visible response.
- Cache-breaking. Flush built a temporary conversation prefix
(system prompt + memory-only tool list) that diverged from the live
conversation's cached prefix, invalidating prompt caching. The
gateway variant spawned a fresh AIAgent with its own clean prompt
for each finalized session — still cache-breaking, just in a
different process.
- Redundant. Background review runs in the live conversation's
session context, gets the same content, writes to the same memory
store, and doesn't break the cache. Everything flush_memories
claimed to preserve is already covered.
What this removes:
- AIAgent.flush_memories() method (~248 LOC in run_agent.py)
- Pre-compression flush call in _compress_context
- flush_memories call sites in cli.py (/new + exit)
- GatewayRunner._flush_memories_for_session + _async_flush_memories
(and the 3 call sites: session expiry watcher, /new, /resume)
- 'flush_memories' entry from DEFAULT_CONFIG auxiliary tasks,
hermes tools UI task list, auxiliary_client docstrings
- _memory_flush_min_turns config + init
- #15631's headroom-deduction math in
_check_compression_model_feasibility (headroom was only needed
because flush dragged the full main-agent system prompt along;
the compression summariser sends a single user-role prompt so
new_threshold = aux_context is safe again)
- The dedicated test files and assertions that exercised
flush-specific paths
What this renames (with read-time backcompat on sessions.json):
- SessionEntry.memory_flushed -> SessionEntry.expiry_finalized.
The session-expiry watcher still uses the flag to avoid re-running
finalize/eviction on the same expired session; the new name
reflects what it now actually gates. from_dict() reads
'expiry_finalized' first, falls back to the legacy 'memory_flushed'
key so existing sessions.json files upgrade seamlessly.
Supersedes #15631 and #15638.
Tested: 383 targeted tests pass across run_agent/, agent/, cli/,
and gateway/ session-boundary suites. No behavior regressions —
background memory review continues to handle persistent memory
extraction on both CLI and gateway.
_check_compression_model_feasibility calls get_model_context_length
without provider=, so Codex OAuth users get 1,050,000 (from models.dev
for 'openai') instead of the actual 272,000 limit. This happens because
_infer_provider_from_url maps chatgpt.com → 'openai' (not 'openai-codex'),
skipping the Codex-specific resolution branch entirely.
Result: compression threshold set at 85% of 1.05M = 892K — conversations
never trigger compression, the context grows unbounded, and when gateway
hygiene eventually forces compression, the Codex endpoint drops the
oversized streaming request ('peer closed connection without sending
complete message body').
Fix: forward self.provider to get_model_context_length so provider-
specific resolution branches (Codex OAuth 272K, Copilot live /models,
Nous suffix-match) fire correctly.
Reported by user on GPT 5.5 via Codex OAuth Pro (paste.rs/vsra3).
When the auxiliary compression model's context is smaller than the main
model's compression threshold, _check_compression_model_feasibility
auto-lowers the session threshold. Previously it set:
new_threshold = aux_context
This let the raw message list grow to exactly aux_context tokens. But
compression and flush_memories actually send system_prompt + tool_schemas
+ messages to the aux model. With 50+ tools that overhead is 25-30K
tokens, so the full request overflowed aux with HTTP 400.
Subtract a headroom estimate from aux_context before setting the new
threshold: the actual tool-schema token count (from
estimate_request_tokens_rough) plus a 12K allowance for the system
prompt (not yet built at __init__ time) and flush-instruction overhead.
Clamp to MINIMUM_CONTEXT_LENGTH so the session still starts even with
an unusually heavy tool schema.
This fixes the 'flush_memories overflow on busy toolsets' path that
Teknium flagged — where main and aux can be nominally the same model
but still 400 because the threshold left no room for the request
overhead. Same fix also protects the normal compression summarisation
request on the same binding aux.
Tests: two new regression tests cover the headroom reservation and the
MINIMUM_CONTEXT_LENGTH floor. Two existing tests updated for the new
(lower) threshold values now that empty-tools still produces a 12K
static headroom deduction.
The memory-flush fallback for api_mode='codex_responses' was unconditionally
adding `temperature` to codex_kwargs before calling _run_codex_stream. The
Responses API does not accept temperature on any supported backend:
- chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex rejects it outright
- api.openai.com + gpt-5/o-series reasoning models reject it
- Copilot Responses rejects it on reasoning models
The CodexAuxiliaryClient adapter and the codex_responses transport both
correctly omit temperature — the flush fallback was the only path putting
it back. On errors from the primary aux path (e.g. expired OAuth token),
users saw `⚠ Auxiliary memory flush failed: HTTP 400: Unsupported parameter:
temperature`.

Extracts _needs_kimi_tool_reasoning() for symmetry with the existing
_needs_deepseek_tool_reasoning() helper, so _copy_reasoning_content_for_api
uses the same detection logic as _build_assistant_message. Future changes
to either provider's signals now only touch one function.
Adds tests/run_agent/test_deepseek_reasoning_content_echo.py covering:
- All 3 DeepSeek detection signals (provider, model, host)
- Poisoned history replay (empty string fallback)
- Plain assistant turns NOT padded
- Explicit reasoning_content preserved
- Reasoning field promoted to reasoning_content
- Existing Kimi/Moonshot detection intact
- Non-thinking providers left alone
21 tests, all pass.
DeepSeek V4 thinking mode requires reasoning_content on every
assistant message that includes tool_calls. When this field is
missing from persisted history, replaying the session causes
HTTP 400: 'The reasoning_content in the thinking mode must be
passed back to the API.'
Two-part fix (refs #15250):
1. _copy_reasoning_content_for_api: Merge the Kimi-only and
DeepSeek detection into a single needs_tool_reasoning_echo
check. This handles already-poisoned persisted sessions by
injecting an empty reasoning_content on replay.
2. _build_assistant_message: Store reasoning_content='' on new
DeepSeek tool-call messages at creation time, preventing
future session poisoning at the source.
Additional fix:
3. _handle_max_iterations: Add missing call to
_copy_reasoning_content_for_api in the max-iterations flush
path (previously only main loop and flush_memories had it).
Detection covers:
- provider == 'deepseek'
- model name containing 'deepseek' (case-insensitive)
- base URL matching api.deepseek.com (for custom provider)
``run_conversation`` was calling ``memory_manager.sync_all(
original_user_message, final_response)`` at the end of every turn
where both args were present. That gate didn't consider the
``interrupted`` local flag, so an external memory backend received
partial assistant output, aborted tool chains, or mid-stream resets as
durable conversational truth. Downstream recall then treated the
not-yet-real state as if the user had seen it complete, poisoning the
trust boundary between "what the user took away from the turn" and
"what Hermes was in the middle of producing when the interrupt hit".
Extracted the inline sync block into a new private method
``AIAgent._sync_external_memory_for_turn(original_user_message,
final_response, interrupted)`` so the interrupt guard is a single
visible check at the top of the method instead of hidden in a
boolean-and at the call site. That also gives tests a clean seam to
assert on — the pre-fix layout buried the logic inside the 3,000-line
``run_conversation`` function where no focused test could reach it.
The new method encodes three independent skip conditions:
1. ``interrupted`` → skip entirely (the #15218 fix). Applies even
when ``final_response`` and ``original_user_message`` happen to
be populated — an interrupt may have landed between a streamed
reply and the next tool call, so the strings on disk are not
actually the turn the user took away.
2. No memory manager / no final_response / no user message →
preserve existing skip behaviour (nothing new for providerless
sessions, system-initiated refreshes, tool-only turns that never
resolved, etc.).
3. Sync_all / queue_prefetch_all exceptions → swallow. External
memory providers are strictly best-effort; a misconfigured or
offline backend must never block the user from seeing their
response.
The prefetch side-effect is gated on the same interrupt flag: the
user's next message is almost certainly a retry of the same intent,
and a prefetch keyed on the interrupted turn would fire against stale
context.
### Tests (16 new, all passing on py3.11 venv)
``tests/run_agent/test_memory_sync_interrupted.py`` exercises the
helper directly on a bare ``AIAgent`` (``__new__`` pattern that the
interrupt-propagation tests already use). Coverage:
- Interrupted turn with full-looking response → no sync (the fix)
- Interrupted turn with long assistant output → no sync (the interrupt
could have landed mid-stream; strings-on-disk lie)
- Normal completed turn → sync_all + queue_prefetch_all both called
with the right args (regression guard for the positive path)
- No final_response / no user_message / no memory manager → existing
pre-fix skip paths still apply
- sync_all raises → exception swallowed, prefetch still attempted
- queue_prefetch_all raises → exception swallowed after sync succeeded
- 8-case parametrised matrix across (interrupted × final_response ×
original_user_message) asserts sync fires iff interrupted=False AND
both strings are non-empty

Extends _repair_tool_call_arguments() to cover the most common local-model
JSON corruption pattern: llama.cpp/Ollama backends emit literal tabs and
newlines inside JSON string values (memory save summaries, file contents,
etc.). Previously fell through to '{}' replacement, losing the call.
Adds two repair passes:
- Pass 0: json.loads(strict=False) + re-serialise to canonical wire form
- Pass 4: escape 0x00-0x1F control chars inside string values, then retry
Ports the core utility from #12068 / PR #12093 without the larger plumbing
change (that PR also replaced json.loads at 8 call sites; current main's
_repair_tool_call_arguments is already the single chokepoint, so the
upgrade happens transparently for every existing caller).
Credit: @truenorth-lj for the original utility design.
4 new regression tests covering literal newlines, tabs, re-serialisation
to strict=True-valid output, and the trailing-comma + control-char
combination case.
When the streaming path (chat completions) assembled tool call deltas and
detected malformed JSON arguments, it set has_truncated_tool_args=True but
passed the broken args through unchanged. This triggered the truncation
handler which returned a partial result and killed the session (/new required).
_many_ malformations are repairable: trailing commas, unclosed brackets,
Python None, empty strings. _repair_tool_call_arguments() already existed
for the pre-API-request path but wasn't called during streaming assembly.
Now when JSON parsing fails during streaming assembly, we attempt repair
via _repair_tool_call_arguments() before flagging as truncated. If repair
succeeds (returns valid JSON), the tool call proceeds normally. Only truly
unrepairable args fall through to the truncation handler.
This prevents the most common session-killing failure mode for models like
GLM-5.1 that produce trailing commas or unclosed brackets.
Tests: 12 new streaming assembly repair tests, all 29 existing repair
tests still passing.
When a session is split by context compression mid-tool-call, an assistant
message may end up with truncated/invalid JSON in tool_calls[*].function.arguments.
On the next turn this is replayed verbatim and providers reject the entire request
with HTTP 400 invalid_tool_call_format, bricking the conversation in a loop that
cannot recover without manual session quarantine.
This patch adds a defensive sanitizer that runs immediately before
client.chat.completions.create() in AIAgent.run_conversation():
- Validates each assistant tool_calls[*].function.arguments via json.loads
- Replaces invalid/empty arguments with '{}'
- Injects a synthetic tool response (or prepends a marker to the existing one)
so downstream messages keep valid tool_call_id pairing
- Logs each repair with session_id / message_index / preview for observability
Defense in depth: corruption can originate from compression splits, manual edits,
or plugin bugs. Sanitizing at the send chokepoint catches all sources.
Adds 7 unit tests covering: truncated JSON, empty string, None, non-string args,
existing matching tool response (no duplicate injection), non-assistant messages
ignored, multiple repairs.
Fixes#15236
Three interrupt-recovery sites in run_agent.py rebuilt self._anthropic_client
with build_anthropic_client(self._anthropic_api_key, ...) unconditionally.
When provider=bedrock + api_mode=anthropic_messages (AnthropicBedrock SDK
path), self._anthropic_api_key is the sentinel 'aws-sdk' — build_anthropic_client
doesn't accept that and the rebuild either crashed or produced a non-functional
client.
Extract a _rebuild_anthropic_client() helper that dispatches to
build_anthropic_bedrock_client(region) when provider='bedrock', falling back
to build_anthropic_client() for native Anthropic and other anthropic_messages
providers (MiniMax, Kimi, Alibaba, etc.). Three inline rebuild sites now call
the helper.
Partial salvage of #14680 by @bsgdigital — only the _rebuild_anthropic_client
helper. The normalize_model_name Bedrock-prefix piece was subsumed by #14664,
and the aux client aws_sdk branch was subsumed by #14770 (both in the same
salvage PR as this commit).
## Problem
When a pooled HTTPS connection to the Bedrock runtime goes stale (NAT
timeout, VPN flap, server-side TCP RST, proxy idle cull), the next
Converse call surfaces as one of:
* botocore.exceptions.ConnectionClosedError / ReadTimeoutError /
EndpointConnectionError / ConnectTimeoutError
* urllib3.exceptions.ProtocolError
* A bare AssertionError raised from inside urllib3 or botocore
(internal connection-pool invariant check)
The agent loop retries the request 3x, but the cached boto3 client in
_bedrock_runtime_client_cache is reused across retries — so every
attempt hits the same dead connection pool and fails identically.
Only a process restart clears the cache and lets the user keep working.
The bare-AssertionError variant is particularly user-hostile because
str(AssertionError()) is an empty string, so the retry banner shows:
⚠️ API call failed: AssertionError
📝 Error:
with no hint of what went wrong.
## Fix
Add two helpers to agent/bedrock_adapter.py:
* is_stale_connection_error(exc) — classifies exceptions that
indicate dead-client/dead-socket state. Matches botocore
ConnectionError + HTTPClientError subtrees, urllib3
ProtocolError / NewConnectionError, and AssertionError
raised from a frame whose module name starts with urllib3.,
botocore., or boto3.. Application-level AssertionErrors are
intentionally excluded.
* invalidate_runtime_client(region) — per-region counterpart to
the existing reset_client_cache(). Evicts a single cached
client so the next call rebuilds it (and its connection pool).
Wire both into the Converse call sites:
* call_converse() / call_converse_stream() in
bedrock_adapter.py (defense-in-depth for any future caller)
* The two direct client.converse(**kwargs) /
client.converse_stream(**kwargs) call sites in run_agent.py
(the paths the agent loop actually uses)
On a stale-connection exception, the client is evicted and the
exception re-raised unchanged. The agent's existing retry loop then
builds a fresh client on the next attempt and recovers without
requiring a process restart.
## Tests
tests/agent/test_bedrock_adapter.py gets three new classes (14 tests):
* TestInvalidateRuntimeClient — per-region eviction correctness;
non-cached region returns False.
* TestIsStaleConnectionError — classifies botocore
ConnectionClosedError / EndpointConnectionError /
ReadTimeoutError, urllib3 ProtocolError, library-internal
AssertionError (both urllib3.* and botocore.* frames), and
correctly ignores application-level AssertionError and
unrelated exceptions (ValueError, KeyError).
* TestCallConverseInvalidatesOnStaleError — end-to-end: stale
error evicts the cached client, non-stale error (validation)
leaves it alone, successful call leaves it cached.
All 116 tests in test_bedrock_adapter.py pass.

Try to activate fallback model after errors was calling get_model_context_length()
without the config_context_length parameter, causing it to fall through to
DEFAULT_FALLBACK_CONTEXT (128K) even when config.yaml has an explicit
model.context_length value (e.g. 204800 for MiniMax-M2.7).
This mirrors the fix already present in switch_model() at line 1988, which
correctly passes config_context_length. The fallback path was missed.
Fixes: context_length forced to 128K on fallback activation
ssl.SSLError (and its subclass ssl.SSLCertVerificationError) inherits from
OSError *and* ValueError via Python's MRO. The is_local_validation_error
check used isinstance(api_error, (ValueError, TypeError)) to detect
programming bugs that should abort immediately — but this inadvertently
caught ssl.SSLError, treating a TLS transport failure as a non-retryable
client error.
The error classifier already maps SSLCertVerificationError to
FailoverReason.timeout with retryable=True (its type name is in
_TRANSPORT_ERROR_TYPES), but the inline isinstance guard was overriding
that classification and triggering an unnecessary abort.
Fix: add ssl.SSLError to the exclusion list alongside the existing
UnicodeEncodeError carve-out so TLS errors fall through to the
classifier's retryable path.
Closes#14367
Claude-style and some Anthropic-tuned models occasionally emit tool
names as class-like identifiers: TodoTool_tool, Patch_tool,
BrowserClick_tool, PatchTool. These failed strict-dict lookup in
valid_tool_names and triggered the 'Unknown tool' self-correction
loop, wasting a full turn of iteration and tokens.
_repair_tool_call already handled lowercase / separator / fuzzy
matches but couldn't bridge the CamelCase-to-snake_case gap or the
trailing '_tool' suffix that Claude sometimes tacks on. Extend it
with two bounded normalization passes:
1. CamelCase -> snake_case (via regex lookbehind).
2. Strip trailing _tool / -tool / tool suffix (case-insensitive,
applied twice so TodoTool_tool reduces all the way: strip
_tool -> TodoTool, snake -> todo_tool, strip 'tool' -> todo).
Cheap fast-paths (lowercase / separator-normalized) still run first
so the common case stays zero-cost. Fuzzy match remains the last
resort unchanged.
Tests: tests/run_agent/test_repair_tool_call_name.py covers the
three original reports (TodoTool_tool, Patch_tool, BrowserClick_tool),
plus PatchTool, WriteFileTool, ReadFile_tool, write-file_Tool,
patch-tool, and edge cases (empty, None, '_tool' alone, genuinely
unknown names).
18 new tests + 17 existing arg-repair tests = 35/35 pass.
Closes#14784
Extracts pool-rotation-room logic into `_pool_may_recover_from_rate_limit`
so single-credential pools no longer block the eager-fallback path on 429.
The existing check `pool is not None and pool.has_available()` lets
fallback fire only after the pool marks every entry as exhausted. With
exactly one credential in the pool (the common shape for Gemini OAuth,
Vertex service accounts, and any personal-key setup), `has_available()`
flips back to True as soon as the cooldown expires — Hermes retries
against the same entry, hits the same daily-quota 429, and burns the
retry budget in a tight loop before ever reaching the configured
`fallback_model`. Observed in the wild as 4+ hours of 429 noise on a
single Gemini key instead of falling through to Vertex as configured.
Rotation is only meaningful with more than one credential — gate on
`len(pool.entries()) > 1`. Multi-credential pools keep the current
wait-for-rotation behaviour unchanged.
Fixes#11314. Related to #8947, #10210, #7230. Narrower scope than
open PRs #8023 (classifier change) and #11492 (503/529 credential-pool
bypass) — this addresses the single-credential 429 case specifically
and does not conflict with either.
Tests: 6 new unit tests in tests/run_agent/test_provider_fallback.py
covering (a) None pool, (b) single-cred available, (c) single-cred in
cooldown, (d) 2-cred available rotates, (e) multi-cred all cooling-down
falls back, (f) many-cred available rotates. All 18 tests in the file
pass.
Previously _handle_credential_pool_error handled 401, 402, and 429
but silently ignored 403. When a provider returns 403 for a revoked or
unauthorised credential (e.g. Nous agent_key invalidated by a newer
login), the pool was never rotated and every subsequent request
continued to use the same failing credential.
Treat 403 the same as 402: immediately mark the current credential
exhausted and rotate to the next pool entry, since a Forbidden response
will not resolve itself with a retry.

When using GitHub Copilot as provider, HTTP 401 errors could cause
Hermes to silently fall back to the next model in the chain instead
of recovering. This adds a one-shot retry mechanism that:
1. Re-resolves the Copilot token via the standard priority chain
(COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN -> GH_TOKEN -> GITHUB_TOKEN -> gh auth token)
2. Rebuilds the OpenAI client with fresh credentials and Copilot headers
3. Retries the failed request before falling back
The fix handles the common case where the gho_* OAuth token remains
valid but the httpx client state becomes stale (e.g. after startup
race conditions or long-lived sessions).
Key design decisions:
- Always rebuild client even if token string unchanged (recovers stale state)
- Uses _apply_client_headers_for_base_url() for canonical header management
- One-shot flag guard prevents infinite 401 loops (matches existing pattern
used by Codex/Nous/Anthropic providers)
- No token exchange via /copilot_internal/v2/token (returns 404 for some
account types; direct gho_* auth works reliably)
Tests: 3 new test cases covering end-to-end 401->refresh->retry,
client rebuild verification, and same-token rebuild scenarios.
Docs: Updated providers.md with Copilot auth behavior section.
json.JSONDecodeError inherits from ValueError. The agent loop's
non-retryable classifier at run_agent.py ~L10782 treated any
ValueError/TypeError as a local programming bug and short-circuited
retry. Without a carve-out, a transient JSONDecodeError from a
provider that returned a malformed response body, a truncated stream,
or a router-layer corruption would fail the turn immediately.
Add JSONDecodeError to the existing UnicodeEncodeError exclusion
tuple so the classified-retry logic (which already handles 429/529/
context-overflow/etc.) gets to run on bad-JSON errors.
Tests (tests/run_agent/test_jsondecodeerror_retryable.py):
- JSONDecodeError: NOT local validation
- UnicodeEncodeError: NOT local validation (existing carve-out)
- bare ValueError: IS local validation (programming bug)
- bare TypeError: IS local validation (programming bug)
- source-level assertion that run_agent.py still carries the carve-out
(guards against accidental revert)
Closes#14782
Two related paths where Codex auth failures silently swallowed the
fallback chain instead of switching to the next provider:
1. cli.py — _ensure_runtime_credentials() calls resolve_runtime_provider()
before each turn. When provider is explicitly configured (not "auto"),
an AuthError from token refresh is re-raised and printed as a bold-red
error, returning False before the agent ever starts. The fallback chain
was never tried. Fix: on AuthError, iterate fallback_providers and
switch to the first one that resolves successfully.
2. run_agent.py — inside the codex_responses validity gate (inner retry
loop), response.status in {"failed","cancelled"} with non-empty output
items was treated as a valid response and broke out of the retry loop,
reaching _normalize_codex_response() outside the fallback machinery.
That function raises RuntimeError on status="failed", which propagates
to the outer except with no fallback logic. Fix: detect terminal status
codes before the output_items check and set response_invalid=True so
the existing fallback chain fires normally.

Manual /compress crashed with 'LCMEngine' object has no attribute
'_align_boundary_forward' when any context-engine plugin was active.
The gateway handler reached into _align_boundary_forward and
_find_tail_cut_by_tokens on tmp_agent.context_compressor, but those
are ContextCompressor-specific — not part of the generic ContextEngine
ABC — so every plugin engine (LCM, etc.) raised AttributeError.
- Add optional has_content_to_compress(messages) to ContextEngine ABC
with a safe default of True (always attempt).
- Override it in the built-in ContextCompressor using the existing
private helpers — preserves exact prior behavior for 'compressor'.
- Rewrite gateway /compress preflight to call the ABC method, deleting
the private-helper reach-in.
- Add focus_topic to the ABC compress() signature. Make _compress_context
retry without focus_topic on TypeError so older strict-sig plugins
don't crash on manual /compress <focus>.
- Regression test with a fake ContextEngine subclass that only
implements the ABC (mirrors LCM's surface).

The agent's API retry loop hardcoded max_retries = 3, so users with
fallback providers on flaky primaries burned through ~3 × provider
timeout (e.g. 3 × 180s = 9 minutes) before their fallback chain got a
chance to kick in.
Expose a new config key:
agent:
api_max_retries: 3 # default unchanged
Set it to 1 for fast failover when you have fallback providers, or
raise it if you prefer longer tolerance on a single provider. Values
< 1 are clamped to 1 (single attempt, no retry); non-integer values
fall back to the default.
This wraps the Hermes-level retry loop only — the OpenAI SDK's own
low-level retries (max_retries=2 default) still run beneath this for
transient network errors.
Changes:
- hermes_cli/config.py: add agent.api_max_retries default 3 with comment.
- run_agent.py: read self._api_max_retries in AIAgent.__init__; replace
hardcoded max_retries = 3 in the retry loop with self._api_max_retries.
- cli-config.yaml.example: documented example entry.
- hermes_cli/tips.py: discoverable tip line.
- tests/run_agent/test_api_max_retries_config.py: 4 tests covering
default, override, clamp-to-one, and invalid-value fallback.
NormalizedResponse and ToolCall now have backward-compat properties
so the agent loop can read them directly without the shim:
ToolCall: .type, .function (returns self), .call_id, .response_item_id
NormalizedResponse: .reasoning_content, .reasoning_details,
.codex_reasoning_items
This eliminates the 35-line shim and its 4 call sites in run_agent.py.
Also changes flush_memories guard from hasattr(response, 'choices')
to self.api_mode in ('chat_completions', 'bedrock_converse') so it
works with raw boto3 dicts too.
WS1 items 3+4 of Cycle 2 (#14418).
Follow-up for #13862 — the post-init api_mode upgrade at __init__ (direct OpenAI /
gpt-5-requires-responses path) runs AFTER the eager transport warm. Clear the cache
so the stale chat_completions entry is evicted.
Cosmetic: correctness was already fine since _get_transport() keys by current
api_mode, but this avoids leaving unused cache state behind.
Consolidate 4 per-transport lazy singleton helpers (_get_anthropic_transport,
_get_codex_transport, _get_chat_completions_transport, _get_bedrock_transport)
into one generic _get_transport(api_mode) with a shared dict cache.
Collapse the 65-line main normalize block (3 api_mode branches, each with
its own SimpleNamespace shim) into 7 lines: one _get_transport() call +
one _nr_to_assistant_message() shared shim. The shim extracts provider_data
fields (codex_reasoning_items, reasoning_details, call_id, response_item_id)
into the SimpleNamespace shape downstream code expects.
Wire chat_completions and bedrock_converse normalize through their transports
for the first time — these were previously falling into the raw
response.choices[0].message else branch.

Port from openclaw/openclaw#67318. Some open models (notably Gemma
variants served via OpenRouter) emit tool calls as XML blocks inside

<tool_call>{"name":"x"}</tool_call>
<function_calls>[{...}]</function_calls>
Left unstripped, this raw XML leaked to gateway users (Discord, Telegram,
Matrix, Feishu, Signal, WhatsApp, etc.) and the CLI, since hermes-agent's
existing reasoning-tag stripper handled only <think>/<thinking>/<thought>
variants.
Extend _strip_think_blocks (run_agent.py) and _strip_reasoning_tags
(cli.py) to cover:
* <tool_call>, <tool_calls>, <tool_result>
* <function_call>, <function_calls>
* <function name="..."> ... </function> (Gemma-style)
The <function> variant is boundary-gated (only strips when the tag sits
at start-of-line or after sentence punctuation AND carries a name="..."
attribute) so prose mentions like 'Use <function> declarations in JS'
are preserved. Dangling <function name="..."> with no close is
intentionally left visible — matches OpenClaw's asymmetry so a truncated
streaming tail still reaches the user.
Tests: 9 new cases in TestStripThinkBlocks (run_agent) + 9 in new file
tests/run_agent/test_strip_reasoning_tags_cli.py. Covers Qwen-style
<tool_call>, Gemma-style <function name="...">, multi-line payloads,
prose preservation, stray close tags, dangling open tags, and mixed
reasoning+tool_call content.
Note: this port covers the post-streaming final-text path, which is what
gateway adapters and CLI display consume. Extending the per-delta stream
filter in gateway/stream_consumer.py to hide these tags live as they
stream is a separate follow-up; for now users may see raw XML briefly
during a stream before the final cleaned text replaces it.
Refs: openclaw/openclaw#67318
When the streaming connection dropped AFTER user-visible text was
delivered but a tool call was in flight, we stubbed the turn with a
'⚠ Stream stalled mid tool-call; Ask me to retry' warning — costing
an iteration and breaking the flow. Users report this happening
increasingly often on long SSE streams through flaky provider routes.
Fix: in the existing inner stream-retry loop, relax the
deltas_were_sent short-circuit. If a tool call was in flight
(partial_tool_names populated) AND the error is a transient connection
error (timeout, RemoteProtocolError, SSE 'connection lost', etc.),
silently retry instead of bailing out. Fire a brief 'Connection
dropped mid tool-call; reconnecting…' marker so the user understands
the preamble is about to be re-streamed.
Researched how Claude Code (tombstone + non-streaming fallback),
OpenCode (blind Effect.retry wrapping whole stream), and Clawdbot
(4-way gate: stopReason==error + output==0 + !hadPotentialSideEffects)
handle this. Chose the narrow Clawdbot-style gate: retry only when
(a) a tool call was actually in flight (otherwise the existing
stub-with-recovered-text is correct for pure-text stalls) and
(b) the error is transient. Side-effect safety is automatic — no
tool has been dispatched within this single API call yet.
UX trade-off: user sees preamble text twice on retry (OpenCode-style).
Strictly better than a lost action with a 'retry manually' message.
If retries exhaust, falls through to the existing stub-with-warning
path so the user isn't left with zero signal.
Tests: 3 new tests in TestSilentRetryMidToolCall covering
(1) silent retry recovers tool call; (2) exhausted retries fall back
to stub; (3) text-only stalls don't trigger retry. 30/30 pass.
* fix(plugins): auto-coerce user-installed memory plugins to kind=exclusive
User-installed memory provider plugins at $HERMES_HOME/plugins/<name>/
were being dispatched to the general PluginManager, which has no
register_memory_provider method on PluginContext. Every startup logged:
Failed to load plugin 'mempalace': 'PluginContext' object has no
attribute 'register_memory_provider'
Bundled memory providers were already skipped via skip_names={memory,
context_engine} in discover_and_load, but user-installed ones weren't.
Fix: _parse_manifest now scans the plugin's __init__.py source for
'register_memory_provider' or 'MemoryProvider' (same heuristic as
plugins/memory/__init__.py:_is_memory_provider_dir) and auto-coerces
kind to 'exclusive' when the manifest didn't declare one explicitly.
This routes the plugin to plugins/memory discovery instead of the
general loader.
The escape hatch: if a manifest explicitly declares kind: standalone,
the heuristic doesn't override it.
Reported by Uncle HODL on Discord.
* fix(nous): actionable CLI message when Nous 401 refresh fails
Mirrors the Anthropic 401 diagnostic pattern. When Nous returns 401
and the credential refresh (_try_refresh_nous_client_credentials)
also fails, the user used to see only the raw APIError. Now prints:
🔐 Nous 401 — Portal authentication failed.
Response: <truncated body>
Most likely: Portal OAuth expired, account out of credits, or
agent key revoked.
Troubleshooting:
• Re-authenticate: hermes login --provider nous
• Check credits / billing: https://portal.nousresearch.com
• Verify stored credentials: $HERMES_HOME/auth.json
• Switch providers temporarily: /model <model> --provider openrouter
Addresses the common 'my hermes model hangs' pattern where the user's
Portal OAuth expired and the CLI gave no hint about the next step.
Adds schema v7 'api_call_count' column. run_agent.py increments it by 1
per LLM API call, web_server analytics SQL aggregates it, frontend uses
the real counter instead of summing sessions.
The 'API Calls' card on the analytics dashboard previously displayed
COUNT(*) from the sessions table — the number of conversations, not
LLM requests. Each session makes 10-90 API calls through the tool loop,
so the reported number was ~30x lower than real.
Salvaged from PR #10140 (@kshitijk4poor). The cache-token accuracy
portions of the original PR were deferred — per-provider analytics is
the better path there, since cache_write_tokens and actual_cost_usd
are only reliably available from a subset of providers (Anthropic
native, Codex Responses, OpenRouter with usage.include).
Tests:
- schema_version v7 assertion
- migration v2 -> v7 adds api_call_count column with default 0
- update_token_counts increments api_call_count by provided delta
- absolute=True sets api_call_count directly
- /api/analytics/usage exposes total_api_calls in totals
- Add configurable retain_tags / retain_source / retain_user_prefix /
retain_assistant_prefix knobs for native Hindsight.
- Thread gateway session identity (user_name, chat_id, chat_name,
chat_type, thread_id) through AIAgent and MemoryManager into
MemoryProvider.initialize kwargs so providers can scope and tag
retained memories.
- Hindsight attaches the new identity fields as retain metadata,
merges per-call tool tags with configured default tags, and uses
the configurable transcript labels for auto-retained turns.

Fourth and final transport — completes the transport layer with all four
api_modes covered. Wraps agent/bedrock_adapter.py behind the ProviderTransport
ABC, handles both raw boto3 dicts and already-normalized SimpleNamespace.
Wires all transport methods to production paths in run_agent.py:
- build_kwargs: _build_api_kwargs bedrock branch
- validate_response: response validation, new bedrock_converse branch
- finish_reason: new bedrock_converse branch in finish_reason extraction
Based on PR #13467 by @kshitijk4poor, with one adjustment: the main normalize
loop does NOT add a bedrock_converse branch to invoke normalize_response on
the already-normalized response. Bedrock's normalize_converse_response runs
at the dispatch site (run_agent.py:5189), so the response already has the
OpenAI-compatible .choices[0].message shape by the time the main loop sees
it. Falling through to the chat_completions else branch is correct and
sidesteps a redundant NormalizedResponse rebuild.
Transport coverage — complete:
| api_mode | Transport | build_kwargs | normalize | validate |
|--------------------|--------------------------|:------------:|:---------:|:--------:|
| anthropic_messages | AnthropicTransport | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| codex_responses | ResponsesApiTransport | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| chat_completions | ChatCompletionsTransport | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| bedrock_converse | BedrockTransport | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
17 new BedrockTransport tests pass. 117 transport tests total pass.
160 bedrock/converse tests across tests/agent/ pass. Full tests/run_agent/
targeted suite passes (885/885 + 15 skipped; the 1 remaining failure is the
pre-existing test_concurrent_interrupt flake on origin/main).
Third concrete transport — handles the default 'chat_completions' api_mode used
by ~16 OpenAI-compatible providers (OpenRouter, Nous, NVIDIA, Qwen, Ollama,
DeepSeek, xAI, Kimi, custom, etc.). Wires build_kwargs + validate_response to
production paths.
Based on PR #13447 by @kshitijk4poor, with fixes:
- Preserve tool_call.extra_content (Gemini thought_signature) via
ToolCall.provider_data — the original shim stripped it, causing 400 errors
on multi-turn Gemini 3 thinking requests.
- Preserve reasoning_content distinctly from reasoning (DeepSeek/Moonshot) so
the thinking-prefill retry check (_has_structured) still triggers.
- Port Kimi/Moonshot quirks (32000 max_tokens, top-level reasoning_effort,
extra_body.thinking) that landed on main after the original PR was opened.
- Keep _qwen_prepare_chat_messages_inplace alive and call it through the
transport when sanitization already deepcopied (avoids a second deepcopy).
- Skip the back-compat SimpleNamespace shim in the main normalize loop — for
chat_completions, response.choices[0].message is already the right shape
with .content/.tool_calls/.reasoning/.reasoning_content/.reasoning_details
and per-tool-call .extra_content from the OpenAI SDK.
run_agent.py: -239 lines in _build_api_kwargs default branch extracted to the
transport. build_kwargs now owns: codex-field sanitization, Qwen portal prep,
developer role swap, provider preferences, max_tokens resolution (ephemeral >
user > NVIDIA 16384 > Qwen 65536 > Kimi 32000 > anthropic_max_output), Kimi
reasoning_effort + extra_body.thinking, OpenRouter/Nous/GitHub reasoning,
Nous product attribution tags, Ollama num_ctx, custom-provider think=false,
Qwen vl_high_resolution_images, request_overrides.
39 new transport tests (8 build_kwargs, 5 Kimi, 4 validate, 4 normalize
including extra_content regression, 3 cache stats, 3 basic). Tests/run_agent/
targeted suite passes (885/885 + 15 skipped; the 1 remaining failure is the
test_concurrent_interrupt flake present on origin/main).
Add ResponsesApiTransport wrapping codex_responses_adapter.py behind the
ProviderTransport ABC. Auto-registered via _discover_transports().
Wire ALL Codex transport methods to production paths in run_agent.py:
- build_kwargs: main _build_api_kwargs codex branch (50 lines extracted)
- normalize_response: main loop + flush + summary + retry (4 sites)
- convert_tools: memory flush tool override
- convert_messages: called internally via build_kwargs
- validate_response: response validation gate
- preflight_kwargs: request sanitization (2 sites)
Remove 7 dead legacy wrappers from AIAgent (_responses_tools,
_chat_messages_to_responses_input, _normalize_codex_response,
_preflight_codex_api_kwargs, _preflight_codex_input_items,
_extract_responses_message_text, _extract_responses_reasoning_text).
Keep 3 ID manipulation methods still used by _build_assistant_message.
Update 18 test call sites across 3 test files to call adapter functions
directly instead of through deleted AIAgent wrappers.
24 new tests. 343 codex/responses/transport tests pass (0 failures).
PR 4 of the provider transport refactor.
* feat(models): hide OpenRouter models that don't advertise tool support
Port from Kilo-Org/kilocode#9068.
hermes-agent is tool-calling-first — every provider path assumes the
model can invoke tools. Models whose OpenRouter supported_parameters
doesn't include 'tools' (e.g. image-only or completion-only models)
cannot be driven by the agent loop and fail at the first tool call.
Filter them out of fetch_openrouter_models() so they never appear in
the model picker (`hermes model`, setup wizard, /model slash command).
Permissive when the field is missing — OpenRouter-compatible gateways
(Nous Portal, private mirrors, older snapshots) don't always populate
supported_parameters. Treat missing as 'unknown → allow' rather than
silently emptying the picker on those gateways. Only hide models
whose supported_parameters is an explicit list that omits tools.
Tests cover: tools present → kept, tools absent → dropped, field
missing → kept, malformed non-list → kept, non-dict item → kept,
empty list → dropped.
* feat(delegate): cross-agent file state coordination for concurrent subagents
Prevents mangled edits when concurrent subagents touch the same file
(same process, same filesystem — the mangle scenario from #11215).
Three layers, all opt-out via HERMES_DISABLE_FILE_STATE_GUARD=1:
1. FileStateRegistry (tools/file_state.py) — process-wide singleton
tracking per-agent read stamps and the last writer globally.
check_stale() names the sibling subagent in the warning when a
non-owning agent wrote after this agent's last read.
2. Per-path threading.Lock wrapped around the read-modify-write
region in write_file_tool and patch_tool. Concurrent siblings on
the same path serialize; different paths stay fully parallel.
V4A multi-file patches lock in sorted path order (deadlock-free).
3. Delegate-completion reminder in tools/delegate_tool.py: after a
subagent returns, writes_since(parent, child_start, parent_reads)
appends '[NOTE: subagent modified files the parent previously
read — re-read before editing: ...]' to entry.summary when the
child touched anything the parent had already seen.
Complements (does not replace) the existing path-overlap check in
run_agent._should_parallelize_tool_batch — batch check prevents
same-file parallel dispatch within one agent's turn (cheap prevention,
zero API cost), registry catches cross-subagent and cross-turn
staleness at write time (detection).
Behavior is warning-only, not hard-failing — matches existing project
style. Errors surface naturally: sibling writes often invalidate the
old_string in patch operations, which already errors cleanly.
Tests: tests/tools/test_file_state_registry.py — 16 tests covering
registry state transitions, per-path locking, per-path-not-global
locking, writes_since filtering, kill switch, and end-to-end
integration through the real read_file/write_file/patch handlers.
Adds role='leaf'|'orchestrator' to delegate_task. With max_spawn_depth>=2,
an orchestrator child retains the 'delegation' toolset and can spawn its
own workers; leaf children cannot delegate further (identical to today).
Default posture is flat — max_spawn_depth=1 means a depth-0 parent's
children land at the depth-1 floor and orchestrator role silently
degrades to leaf. Users opt into nested delegation by raising
max_spawn_depth to 2 or 3 in config.yaml.
Also threads acp_command/acp_args through the main agent loop's delegate
dispatch (previously silently dropped in the schema) via a new
_dispatch_delegate_task helper, and adds a DelegateEvent enum with
legacy-string back-compat for gateway/ACP/CLI progress consumers.
Config (hermes_cli/config.py defaults):
delegation.max_concurrent_children: 3 # floor-only, no upper cap
delegation.max_spawn_depth: 1 # 1=flat (default), 2-3 unlock nested
delegation.orchestrator_enabled: true # global kill switch
Salvaged from @pefontana's PR #11215. Overrides vs. the original PR:
concurrency stays at 3 (PR bumped to 5 + cap 8 — we keep the floor only,
no hard ceiling); max_spawn_depth defaults to 1 (PR defaulted to 2 which
silently enabled one level of orchestration for every user).

Reported during the TUI v2 blitz test: switching from openrouter to
anthropic via `/model <name> --provider anthropic` appeared to succeed,
but the next turn kept hitting openrouter — the provider the user was
deliberately moving away from.
Two gaps caused this:
1. `Agent.switch_model` reset `_fallback_activated` / `_fallback_index`
but left `_fallback_chain` intact. The chain was seeded from
`fallback_providers:` at agent init for the *original* primary, so
when the new primary returned 401 (invalid/expired Anthropic key),
`_try_activate_fallback()` picked the old provider back up without
informing the user. Prune entries matching either the old primary
(user is moving away) or the new primary (redundant) whenever the
primary provider actually changes.
2. `_apply_model_switch` persisted `HERMES_MODEL` but never updated
`HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER`. Any ambient re-resolution of the runtime
(credential pool refresh, compressor rebuild, aux clients) falls
through to that env var in `resolve_requested_provider`, so it kept
reporting the original provider even after an in-memory switch.
Adds three regression tests: fallback-chain prune on primary change,
no-op on same-provider model swap, and env-var sync on explicit switch.
The 💾 Cache footer was gated on `self._use_prompt_caching`, which is
only True for Anthropic marker injection (native Anthropic, OpenRouter
Claude, Anthropic-wire gateways, Qwen on OpenCode/Alibaba). Providers
with automatic server-side prefix caching — OpenAI, Kimi, DeepSeek,
Qwen on OpenRouter — return `prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens` too,
but users couldn't see their cache % because the display path never
fired for them. Result: people couldn't tell their cache was working or
broken without grepping agent.log.
`canonical_usage` from `normalize_usage()` already unifies all three
API shapes (Anthropic / Codex Responses / OpenAI chat completions) into
`cache_read_tokens` and `cache_write_tokens`. Drop the gate and read
from there — now the footer fires whenever the provider reported any
cached or written tokens, regardless of whether hermes injected markers.
Also removes duplicated branch-per-API-shape extraction code.
Qwen models on OpenCode, OpenCode Go, and direct DashScope accept
Anthropic-style cache_control markers on OpenAI-wire chat completions,
but hermes only injected markers for Claude-named models. Result: zero
cache hits on every turn, full prompt re-billed — a community user
reported burning through their OpenCode Go subscription on Qwen3.6.
Extend _anthropic_prompt_cache_policy to return (True, False) — envelope
layout, not native — for the Alibaba provider family when the model name
contains 'qwen'. Envelope layout places markers on inner content blocks
(matching pi-mono's 'alibaba' cacheControlFormat) and correctly skips
top-level markers on tool-role messages (which OpenCode rejects).
Non-Qwen models on these providers (GLM, Kimi) keep their existing
behaviour — they have automatic server-side caching and don't need
client markers.
Upstream reference: pi-mono #3392 / #3393 documented this contract for
opencode-go Qwen models.
Adds 7 regression tests covering Qwen3.5/3.6/coder on each affected
provider plus negative cases for GLM/Kimi/OpenRouter-Qwen.
Two call sites still used a raw substring check to identify ollama.com:
hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py:496:
_is_ollama_url = "ollama.com" in base_url.lower()
run_agent.py:6127:
if fb_base_url_hint and "ollama.com" in fb_base_url_hint.lower() ...
Same bug class as GHSA-xf8p-v2cg-h7h5 (OpenRouter substring leak), which
was fixed in commit dbb7e00e via base_url_host_matches() across the
codebase. The earlier sweep missed these two Ollama sites. Self-discovered
during April 2026 security-advisory triage; filed as GHSA-76xc-57q6-vm5m.
Impact is narrow — requires a user with OLLAMA_API_KEY configured AND a
custom base_url whose path or look-alike host contains 'ollama.com'.
Users on default provider flows are unaffected. Filed as a draft advisory
to use the private-fork flow; not CVE-worthy on its own.
Fix is mechanical: replace substring check with base_url_host_matches
at both sites. Same helper the rest of the codebase uses.
Tests: 67 -> 71 passing. 7 new host-matcher cases in
tests/test_base_url_hostname.py (path injection, lookalike host,
localtest.me subdomain, ollama.ai TLD confusion, localhost, genuine
ollama.com, api.ollama.com subdomain) + 4 call-site tests in
tests/hermes_cli/test_runtime_provider_resolution.py verifying
OLLAMA_API_KEY is selected only when base_url actually targets
ollama.com.
Fixes GHSA-76xc-57q6-vm5m
Kimi/Moonshot endpoints require explicit parameters that Hermes was not
sending, causing 'Response truncated due to output length limit' errors
and inconsistent reasoning behavior.
Root cause analysis against Kimi CLI source (MoonshotAI/kimi-cli,
packages/kosong/src/kosong/chat_provider/kimi.py):
1. max_tokens: Kimi's API defaults to a very low value when omitted.
Reasoning tokens share the output budget — the model exhausts it on
thinking alone. Send 32000, matching Kimi CLI's generate() default.
2. reasoning_effort: Kimi CLI sends this as a top-level parameter (not
inside extra_body). Hermes was not sending it at all because
_supports_reasoning_extra_body() returns False for non-OpenRouter
endpoints.
3. extra_body.thinking: Kimi CLI uses with_thinking() which sets
extra_body.thinking={"type":"enabled"} alongside reasoning_effort.
This is a separate control from the OpenAI-style reasoning extra_body
that Hermes sends for OpenRouter/GitHub. Without it, the Kimi gateway
may not activate reasoning mode correctly.
Covers api.kimi.com (Kimi Code) and api.moonshot.ai/cn (Moonshot).
Tests: 6 new test cases for max_tokens, reasoning_effort, and
extra_body.thinking under various configs.
Full AST-based scan of all .py files to find every case where a module
or name is imported locally inside a function body but is already
available at module level. This is the second pass — the first commit
handled the known cases from the lint report; this one catches
everything else.

Sweep ~74 redundant local imports across 21 files where the same module
was already imported at the top level. Also includes type fixes and lint
cleanups on the same branch.
Add agent/transports/types.py with three shared dataclasses:
- NormalizedResponse: content, tool_calls, finish_reason, reasoning, usage, provider_data
- ToolCall: id, name, arguments, provider_data (per-tool-call protocol metadata)
- Usage: prompt_tokens, completion_tokens, total_tokens, cached_tokens
Add normalize_anthropic_response_v2() to anthropic_adapter.py — wraps the
existing v1 function and maps its output to NormalizedResponse. One call site
in run_agent.py (the main normalize branch) uses v2 with a back-compat shim
to SimpleNamespace for downstream code.
No ABC, no registry, no streaming, no client lifecycle. Those land in PR 3
with the first concrete transport (AnthropicTransport).
46 new tests:
- test_types.py: dataclass construction, build_tool_call, map_finish_reason
- test_anthropic_normalize_v2.py: v1-vs-v2 regression tests (text, tools,
thinking, mixed, stop reasons, mcp prefix stripping, edge cases)
Part of the provider transport refactor (PR 2 of 9).
The mid-run steer marker was '[USER STEER (injected mid-run, not tool
output): <text>]'. Replaced with a plain two-newline-prefixed
'User guidance: <text>' suffix.
Rationale: the marker lives inside the tool result's content string
regardless of whether the tool returned JSON, plain text, an MCP
result, or a plugin result. The bracketed tag read like structured
metadata that some tools (terminal, execute_code) could confuse with
their own output formatting. A plain labelled suffix works uniformly
across every content shape we produce.
Behavior unchanged:
- Still injected into the last tool-role message's content.
- Still preserves multimodal (Anthropic) content-block lists by
appending a text block.
- Still drained at both sites added in #12959 and #13205 — per-tool
drain between individual calls, and pre-API-call drain at the top
of each main-loop iteration.
Checked Codex's equivalent (pending_input / inject_user_message_without_turn
in codex-rs/core): they record mid-turn user input as a real role:user
message via record_user_prompt_and_emit_turn_item(). That's cleaner for
their Responses-API model but not portable to Chat Completions where
role alternation after tool_calls is strict. Embedding the guidance in
the last tool result remains the correct placement for us.
Validation: all 21 tests in tests/run_agent/test_steer.py pass.
Aslaaen's fix in the original PR covered _detect_api_mode_for_url and the
two openai/xai sites in run_agent.py. This finishes the sweep: the same
substring-match false-positive class (e.g. https://api.openai.com.evil/v1,
https://proxy/api.openai.com/v1, https://api.anthropic.com.example/v1)
existed in eight more call sites, and the hostname helper was duplicated
in two modules.
- utils: add shared base_url_hostname() (single source of truth).
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider, run_agent: drop local duplicates, import
from utils. Reuse the cached AIAgent._base_url_hostname attribute
everywhere it's already populated.
- agent/auxiliary_client: switch codex-wrap auto-detect, max_completion_tokens
gate (auxiliary_max_tokens_param), and custom-endpoint max_tokens kwarg
selection to hostname equality.
- run_agent: native-anthropic check in the Claude-style model branch
and in the AIAgent init provider-auto-detect branch.
- agent/model_metadata: Anthropic /v1/models context-length lookup.
- hermes_cli/providers.determine_api_mode: anthropic / openai URL
heuristics for custom/unknown providers (the /anthropic path-suffix
convention for third-party gateways is preserved).
- tools/delegate_tool: anthropic detection for delegated subagent
runtimes.
- hermes_cli/setup, hermes_cli/tools_config: setup-wizard vision-endpoint
native-OpenAI detection (paired with deduping the repeated check into
a single is_native_openai boolean per branch).
Tests:
- tests/test_base_url_hostname.py covers the helper directly
(path-containing-host, host-suffix, trailing dot, port, case).
- tests/hermes_cli/test_determine_api_mode_hostname.py adds the same
regression class for determine_api_mode, plus a test that the
/anthropic third-party gateway convention still wins.
Also: add asslaenn5@gmail.com → Aslaaen to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP.
Requests through Vercel AI Gateway now carry referrerUrl / appName /
User-Agent attribution so traffic shows up in the gateway's analytics.
Adds _AI_GATEWAY_HEADERS in auxiliary_client and a new
ai-gateway.vercel.sh branch in _apply_client_headers_for_base_url.
Follow-up for salvaged PR #3185:
- run_agent.py: pass self.api_key to query_ollama_num_ctx() so Ollama
behind an auth proxy (same issue class as the LM Studio fix) can be
probed successfully.
- scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP: map @tannerfokkens-maker's local-hostname
commit email.
When /steer is sent during an API call (model thinking), the steer text
sits in _pending_steer until after the next tool batch — which may never
come if the model returns a final response. In that case the steer is
only delivered as a post-run follow-up, defeating the purpose.
Add a pre-API-call drain at the top of the main loop: before building
api_messages, check _pending_steer and inject into the last tool result
in the messages list. This ensures steers sent during model thinking are
visible on the very next API call.
If no tool result exists yet (first iteration), the steer is restashed
for the post-tool drain to pick up — injecting into a user message would
break role alternation.
Three new tests cover the pre-API-call drain: injection into last tool
result, restash when no tool message exists, and backward scan past
non-tool messages.
Kimi's gateway selects the correct temperature server-side based on the
active mode (thinking -> 1.0, non-thinking -> 0.6). Sending any
temperature value — even the previously "correct" one — conflicts with
gateway-managed defaults.
Replaces the old approach of forcing specific temperature values (0.6
for non-thinking, 1.0 for thinking) with an OMIT_TEMPERATURE sentinel
that tells all call sites to strip the temperature key from API kwargs
entirely.
Changes:
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: OMIT_TEMPERATURE sentinel, _is_kimi_model()
prefix check (covers all kimi-* models), _fixed_temperature_for_model()
returns sentinel for kimi models. _build_call_kwargs() strips temp.
- run_agent.py: _build_api_kwargs, flush_memories, and summary generation
paths all handle the sentinel by popping/omitting temperature.
- trajectory_compressor.py: _effective_temperature_for_model returns None
for kimi (sentinel mapped), direct client calls use kwargs dict to
conditionally include temperature.
- mini_swe_runner.py: same sentinel handling via wrapper function.
- 6 test files updated: all 'forces temperature X' assertions replaced
with 'temperature not in kwargs' assertions.

module-level helper for testability and readability
- Remove redundant 'import re as _re' (re already imported at line 33)
- Bound the while-True excess-delimiter removal loop to 50 iterations

Models like GLM-5.1 via Ollama can produce malformed tool_call arguments
(truncated JSON, trailing commas, Python None). The existing except
Exception: pass silently passes broken args to the API, which rejects
them with HTTP 400, crashing the session.
Adds a multi-stage repair pipeline at the pre-send normalization point:
1. Empty/whitespace-only → {}
2. Python None literal → {}
3. Strip trailing commas
4. Auto-close unclosed brackets
5. Remove excess closing delimiters
6. Last resort: replace with {} (logged at WARNING)
Cherry-picked from PR #12481 by @Sanjays2402.
Reasoning models (GLM-5.1, QwQ, DeepSeek R1) inflate completion_tokens
with internal thinking tokens. The compression trigger summed
prompt_tokens + completion_tokens, causing premature compression at ~42%
actual context usage instead of the configured 50% threshold.
Now uses only prompt_tokens — completion tokens don't consume context
window space for the next API call.
- 3 new regression tests
- Added AUTHOR_MAP entry for @Sanjays2402
Closes#12026
OpenAI-compatible clients (Open WebUI, LobeChat, etc.) can now send vision
requests to the API server. Both endpoints accept the canonical OpenAI
multimodal shape:
Chat Completions: {type: text|image_url, image_url: {url, detail?}}
Responses: {type: input_text|input_image, image_url: <str>, detail?}
The server validates and converts both into a single internal shape that the
existing agent pipeline already handles (Anthropic adapter converts,
OpenAI-wire providers pass through). Remote http(s) URLs and data:image/*
URLs are supported.
Uploaded files (file, input_file, file_id) and non-image data: URLs are
rejected with 400 unsupported_content_type.
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/api_server.py
- _normalize_multimodal_content(): validates + normalizes both Chat and
Responses content shapes. Returns a plain string for text-only content
(preserves prompt-cache behavior on existing callers) or a canonical
[{type:text|image_url,...}] list when images are present.
- _content_has_visible_payload(): replaces the bare truthy check so a
user turn with only an image no longer rejects as 'No user message'.
- _handle_chat_completions and _handle_responses both call the new helper
for user/assistant content; system messages continue to flatten to text.
- Codex conversation_history, input[], and inline history paths all share
the same validator. No duplicated normalizers.
- run_agent.py
- _summarize_user_message_for_log(): produces a short string summary
('[1 image] describe this') from list content for logging, spinner
previews, and trajectory writes. Fixes AttributeError when list
user_message hit user_message[:80] + '...' / .replace().
- _chat_content_to_responses_parts(): module-level helper that converts
chat-style multimodal content to Responses 'input_text'/'input_image'
parts. Used in _chat_messages_to_responses_input for Codex routing.
- _preflight_codex_input_items() now validates and passes through list
content parts for user/assistant messages instead of stringifying.
- tests/gateway/test_api_server_multimodal.py (new, 38 tests)
- Unit coverage for _normalize_multimodal_content, including both part
formats, data URL gating, and all reject paths.
- Real aiohttp HTTP integration on /v1/chat/completions and /v1/responses
verifying multimodal payloads reach _run_agent intact.
- 400 coverage for file / input_file / non-image data URL.
- tests/run_agent/test_run_agent_multimodal_prologue.py (new)
- Regression coverage for the prologue no-crash contract.
- _chat_content_to_responses_parts round-trip coverage.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/api-server.md
- Inline image examples for both endpoints.
- Updated Limitations: files still unsupported, images now supported.
Validated live against openrouter/anthropic/claude-opus-4.6:
POST /v1/chat/completions → 200, vision-accurate description
POST /v1/responses → 200, same image, clean output_text
POST /v1/chat/completions [file] → 400 unsupported_content_type

Previously, /steer text was only injected after an entire tool batch
completed (_execute_tool_calls_sequential/concurrent returned). If the
batch had a long-running tool (delegate_task, terminal build), the
steer waited for ALL tools to finish before landing — functionally
identical to /queue from the user's perspective.
Now _apply_pending_steer_to_tool_results() is called after EACH
individual tool result is appended to messages, in both the sequential
and concurrent paths. A steer arriving during Tool 1 lands in Tool 1's
result before Tool 2 starts executing.
Also handles leftover steers in the gateway: if a steer arrives during
the final API call (no tool batch to drain into), it's now delivered as
the next user turn instead of being silently dropped.
Fixes user report from Utku.
Context compression silently failed when the auxiliary compression model's
context window was smaller than the main model's compression threshold
(e.g. GLM-4.5-air at 131k paired with a 150k threshold). The feasibility
check warned but the session kept running and compression attempts errored
out mid-conversation.
Two changes in _check_compression_model_feasibility():
1. Hard floor: if detected aux context < MINIMUM_CONTEXT_LENGTH (64k),
raise ValueError so the session refuses to start. Mirrors the existing
main-model rejection at AIAgent.__init__ line 1600. A compression model
below 64k cannot summarise a full threshold-sized window.
2. Auto-correct: when aux context is >= 64k but below the computed
threshold, lower the live compressor's threshold_tokens to aux_context
(and update threshold_percent to match so later update_model() calls
stay in sync). Warning reworded to say what was done and how to
persist the fix in config.yaml.
Only ValueError re-raises; other exceptions in the check remain swallowed
as non-fatal.
Third-party gateways that speak the native Anthropic protocol (MiniMax,
Zhipu GLM, Alibaba DashScope, Kimi, LiteLLM proxies) now work end-to-end
with the same feature set as direct api.anthropic.com callers. Synthesizes
eight stale community PRs into one consolidated change.
Five fixes:
- URL detection: consolidate three inline `endswith("/anthropic")`
checks in runtime_provider.py into the shared _detect_api_mode_for_url
helper. Third-party /anthropic endpoints now auto-resolve to
api_mode=anthropic_messages via one code path instead of three.
- OAuth leak-guard: all five sites that assign `_is_anthropic_oauth`
(__init__, switch_model, _try_refresh_anthropic_client_credentials,
_swap_credential, _try_activate_fallback) now gate on
`provider == "anthropic"` so a stale ANTHROPIC_TOKEN never trips
Claude-Code identity injection on third-party endpoints. Previously
only 2 of 5 sites were guarded.
- Prompt caching: new method `_anthropic_prompt_cache_policy()` returns
`(should_cache, use_native_layout)` per endpoint. Replaces three
inline conditions and the `native_anthropic=(api_mode=='anthropic_messages')`
call-site flag. Native Anthropic and third-party Anthropic gateways
both get the native cache_control layout; OpenRouter gets envelope
layout. Layout is persisted in `_primary_runtime` so fallback
restoration preserves the per-endpoint choice.
- Auxiliary client: `_try_custom_endpoint` honors
`api_mode=anthropic_messages` and builds `AnthropicAuxiliaryClient`
instead of silently downgrading to an OpenAI-wire client. Degrades
gracefully to OpenAI-wire when the anthropic SDK isn't installed.
- Config hygiene: `_update_config_for_provider` (hermes_cli/auth.py)
clears stale `api_key`/`api_mode` when switching to a built-in
provider, so a previous MiniMax custom endpoint's credentials can't
leak into a later OpenRouter session.
- Truncation continuation: length-continuation and tool-call-truncation
retry now cover `anthropic_messages` in addition to `chat_completions`
and `bedrock_converse`. Reuses the existing `_build_assistant_message`
path via `normalize_anthropic_response()` so the interim message
shape is byte-identical to the non-truncated path.
Tests: 6 new files, 42 test cases. Targeted run + tests/run_agent,
tests/agent, tests/hermes_cli all pass (4554 passed).

Bedrock rejects ``global-anthropic-claude-opus-4-7`` with ``HTTP 400:
The provided model identifier is invalid`` because its inference
profile IDs embed structural dots
(``global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-7``) that ``normalize_model_name``
was converting to hyphens. ``AIAgent._anthropic_preserve_dots`` did
not include ``bedrock`` in its provider allowlist, so every Claude-on-
Bedrock request through the AnthropicBedrock SDK path shipped with
the mangled model ID and failed.
Root cause
----------
``run_agent.py:_anthropic_preserve_dots`` (previously line 6589)
controls whether ``agent.anthropic_adapter.normalize_model_name``
converts dots to hyphens. The function listed Alibaba, MiniMax,
OpenCode Go/Zen and ZAI but not Bedrock, so when a user set
``provider: bedrock`` with a dotted inference-profile model the flag
returned False and ``normalize_model_name`` mangled every dot in the
ID. All four call sites in run_agent.py
(``build_anthropic_kwargs`` + three fallback / review / summary paths
at lines 6707, 7343, 8408, 8440) read from this same helper.
The bug shape matches #5211 for opencode-go, which was fixed in commit
f77be22c by extending this same allowlist.
Fix
---
* Add ``"bedrock"`` to the provider allowlist.
* Add ``"bedrock-runtime."`` to the base-URL heuristic as
defense-in-depth, so a custom-provider-shaped config with
``base_url: https://bedrock-runtime.<region>.amazonaws.com`` also
takes the preserve-dots path even if ``provider`` isn't explicitly
set to ``"bedrock"``. This mirrors how the code downstream at
run_agent.py:759 already treats either signal as "this is Bedrock".
Bedrock model ID shapes covered
-------------------------------
| Shape | Preserved |
| --- | --- |
| ``global.anthropic.claude-opus-4-7`` (reporter's exact ID) | ✓ |
| ``us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-5-20250929-v1:0`` | ✓ |
| ``apac.anthropic.claude-haiku-4-5`` | ✓ |
| ``anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet-20241022-v2:0`` (foundation) | ✓ |
| ``eu.anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet`` (regional inference profile) | ✓ |
Non-Claude Bedrock models (Nova, Llama, DeepSeek) take the
``bedrock_converse`` / boto3 path which does not call
``normalize_model_name``, so they were never affected by this bug
and remain unaffected by the fix.
Narrow scope — explicitly not changed
-------------------------------------
* ``bedrock_converse`` path (non-Claude Bedrock models) — already
correct; no ``normalize_model_name`` in that pipeline.
* Provider aliases (``aws``, ``aws-bedrock``, ``amazon``,
``amazon-bedrock``) — if a user bypasses the alias-normalization
pipeline and passes ``provider="aws"`` directly, the base-URL
heuristic still catches it because Bedrock always uses a
``bedrock-runtime.`` endpoint. Adding the aliases themselves to the
provider set is cheap but would be scope creep for this fix.
* No other places in ``agent/anthropic_adapter.py`` mangle dots, so
the fix is confined to ``_anthropic_preserve_dots``.
Regression coverage
-------------------
``tests/agent/test_bedrock_integration.py`` gains three new classes:
* ``TestBedrockPreserveDotsFlag`` (5 tests): flag returns True for
``provider="bedrock"`` and for Bedrock runtime URLs (us-east-1 and
ap-northeast-2 — the reporter's region); returns False for non-
Bedrock AWS URLs like ``s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com``; canary that
Anthropic-native still returns False.
* ``TestBedrockModelNameNormalization`` (5 tests): every documented
Bedrock model-ID shape survives ``normalize_model_name`` with the
flag on; inverse canary pins that ``preserve_dots=False`` still
mangles (so a future refactor can't decouple the flag from its
effect).
* ``TestBedrockBuildAnthropicKwargsEndToEnd`` (2 tests): integration
through ``build_anthropic_kwargs`` shows the reporter's exact model
ID ends up unmangled in the outgoing kwargs.
Three of the new flag tests fail on unpatched ``origin/main`` with
``assert False is True`` (preserve-dots returning False for Bedrock),
confirming the regression is caught.
Validation
----------
``source venv/bin/activate && python -m pytest
tests/agent/test_bedrock_integration.py tests/agent/test_minimax_provider.py
-q`` -> 84 passed (40 new bedrock tests + 44 pre-existing, including
the minimax canaries that pin the pattern this fix mirrors).
CI-aligned broad suite: 12827 passed, 39 skipped, 19 pre-existing
baseline failures (all reproduce on clean ``origin/main``; none in
the touched code path).

Follow up salvaged PR #12668 by threading base_url through the
remaining direct-call sites so kimi-k2.5 uses temperature=1.0 on
api.moonshot.ai and keeps 0.6 on api.kimi.com/coding. Add focused
regression tests for run_agent, trajectory_compressor, and
mini_swe_runner.
- only use the native adapter for the canonical Gemini native endpoint
- keep custom and /openai base URLs on the OpenAI-compatible path
- preserve Hermes keepalive transport injection for native Gemini clients
- stabilize streaming tool-call replay across repeated SSE events
- add follow-up tests for base_url precedence, async streaming, and duplicate tool-call chunks
- add a native Gemini adapter over generateContent/streamGenerateContent
- switch the built-in gemini provider off the OpenAI-compatible endpoint
- preserve thought signatures and native functionResponse replay
- route auxiliary Gemini clients through the same adapter
- add focused unit coverage plus native-provider integration checks
The cherry-picked salvage (admin28980's commit) added codex headers only on the
primary chat client path, with two inaccuracies:
- originator was 'hermes-agent' — Cloudflare whitelists codex_cli_rs,
codex_vscode, codex_sdk_ts, and Codex* prefixes. 'hermes-agent' isn't on
the list, so the header had no mitigating effect on the 403 (the
account-id header alone may have been carrying the fix).
- account-id header was 'ChatGPT-Account-Id' — upstream codex-rs auth.rs
uses canonical 'ChatGPT-Account-ID' (PascalCase, trailing -ID).
Also, the auxiliary client (_try_codex + resolve_provider_client raw_codex
branch) constructs OpenAI clients against the same chatgpt.com endpoint with
no default headers at all — so compression, title generation, vision, session
search, and web_extract all still 403 from VPS IPs.
Consolidate the header set into _codex_cloudflare_headers() in
agent/auxiliary_client.py (natural home next to _read_codex_access_token and
the existing JWT decode logic) and call it from all four insertion points:
- run_agent.py: AIAgent.__init__ (initial construction)
- run_agent.py: _apply_client_headers_for_base_url (credential rotation)
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: _try_codex (aux client)
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: resolve_provider_client raw_codex branch
Net: -36/+55 lines, -25 lines of duplicated inline JWT decode replaced by a
single helper. User-Agent switched to 'codex_cli_rs/0.0.0 (Hermes Agent)' to
match the codex-rs shape while keeping product attribution.
Tests in tests/agent/test_codex_cloudflare_headers.py cover:
- originator value, User-Agent shape, canonical header casing
- account-ID extraction from a real JWT fixture
- graceful handling of malformed / non-string / claim-missing tokens
- wiring at all four insertion points (primary init, rotation, both aux paths)
- non-chatgpt base URLs (openrouter) do NOT get codex headers
- switching away from chatgpt.com drops the headers
Add ChatGPT-Account-Id and originator headers when using chatgpt.com
backend-api endpoint. Matches official codex-rs CLI behavior to prevent
Cloudflare JavaScript challenges on non-residential IPs (VPS, Mac Mini,
always-on servers).
Applied in AIAgent.__init__ and _update_base_url_headers to cover both
initial setup and credential rotation paths.
When creating httpx.Client with a custom transport for TCP keepalive,
proxy environment variables (HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY) were ignored because
httpx only auto-reads them when transport=None.
Add _get_proxy_from_env() to explicitly read proxy settings and pass them
to httpx.Client, ensuring providers like kimi-coding-cn work correctly
when behind a proxy.
Fixes connection errors when HTTP_PROXY/HTTPS_PROXY are set.
Live test with timeout_seconds: 0.5 on claude-sonnet-4.6 proved the
initial wiring was insufficient: run_agent.py was overriding the
client-level timeout on every call via hardcoded per-request kwargs.
Root cause: run_agent.py had two sites that pass an explicit timeout=
kwarg into chat.completions.create() — api_kwargs['timeout'] at line
7075 (HERMES_API_TIMEOUT=1800s default) and the streaming path's
_httpx.Timeout(..., read=HERMES_STREAM_READ_TIMEOUT=120s, ...) at line
5760. Both override the per-provider config value the client was
constructed with, so a 0.5s config timeout would silently not enforce.
This commit:
- Adds AIAgent._resolved_api_call_timeout() — config > HERMES_API_TIMEOUT env > 1800s default.
- Uses it for the non-streaming api_kwargs['timeout'] field.
- Uses it for the streaming path's httpx.Timeout(connect, read, write, pool)
so both connect and read respect the configured value when set.
Local-provider auto-bump (Ollama/vLLM cold-start) only applies when
no explicit config value is set.
- New test: test_resolved_api_call_timeout_priority covers all three
precedence cases (config, env, default).
Live verified: 0.5s config on claude-sonnet-4.6 now triggers
APITimeoutError at ~3s per retry, exhausts 3 retries in ~15s total
(was: 29-47s success with timeout ignored). Positive case (60s config
+ gpt-4o-mini) still succeeds at 1.3s.
Follow-up on top of mvanhorn's cherry-picked commit. Original PR only
wired request_timeout_seconds into the explicit-creds OpenAI branch at
run_agent.py init; router-based implicit auth, native Anthropic, and the
fallback chain were still hardcoded to SDK defaults.
- agent/anthropic_adapter.py: build_anthropic_client() accepts an optional
timeout kwarg (default 900s preserved when unset/invalid).
- run_agent.py: resolve per-provider/per-model timeout once at init; apply
to Anthropic native init + post-refresh rebuild + stale/interrupt
rebuilds + switch_model + _restore_primary_runtime + the OpenAI
implicit-auth path + _try_activate_fallback (with immediate client
rebuild so the first fallback request carries the configured timeout).
- tests: cover anthropic adapter kwarg honoring; widen mock signatures
to accept the new timeout kwarg.
- docs/example: clarify that the knob now applies to every transport,
the fallback chain, and rebuilds after credential rotation.
Adds optional providers.<id>.request_timeout_seconds and
providers.<id>.models.<model>.timeout_seconds config, resolved via a new
hermes_cli/timeouts.py helper and applied where client_kwargs is built
in run_agent.py. Zero default behavior change: when both keys are unset,
the openai SDK default takes over.
Mirrors the existing _get_task_timeout pattern in agent/auxiliary_client.py
for auxiliary tasks - the primary turn path just never got the equivalent
knob.
Cross-project demand: openclaw/openclaw#43946 (17 reactions) asks for
exactly this config - specifically calls out Ollama cold-start hanging
the client.
Commit 4a9c3565 added a reference to `self.config` in
`_check_compression_model_feasibility()` to pass the user-configured
`auxiliary.compression.context_length` to `get_model_context_length()`.
However, `AIAgent` never stores the loaded config dict as an instance
attribute — the config is loaded into a local variable `_agent_cfg` in
`__init__()` and discarded after init.
This causes an `AttributeError: 'AIAgent' object has no attribute
'config'` on every session start when compression is enabled, caught by
the try/except and logged as a non-fatal DEBUG message.
Fix: store the loaded config as `self._config` in `__init__()` and
update the reference in the feasibility check to use `self._config`.
Follow-up for the helix4u easy-fix salvage batch:
- route remaining context-engine quiet-mode output through
_should_emit_quiet_tool_messages() so non-CLI/library callers stay
silent consistently
- drop the extra senderAliases computation from WhatsApp allowlist-drop
logging and remove the now-unused import
This keeps the batch scoped to the intended fixes while avoiding
leaked quiet-mode output and unnecessary duplicate work in the bridge.
Inline reasoning tags in an assistant message's content field leak to every downstream consumer: messaging platforms (#8878, #9568), API replay of prior turns, session transcript, CLI recap, generated session titles, and context compression. _extract_reasoning() already captures the reasoning text into msg['reasoning'] separately, so the raw tags in content are redundant.
Stripping once at the storage boundary in _build_assistant_message() cleans the content for every downstream path in one place — no per-platform or per-path stripper needed. Measured impact on a real MiniMax M2.7-highspeed session (per @luoyejiaoe-source, #9306): 55% of assistant messages started with <think> blocks, 51/100 session titles were polluted, 16% content-size reduction.
3 new regression tests in TestBuildAssistantMessage: closed-pair strip with reasoning capture, no-think-tag passthrough, and unterminated-block strip.
Resolves#8878 and #9568.
Originally proposed as PR #9250.
Providers served via NIM (MiniMax M2.7, some Moonshot/DeepSeek proxies) sometimes drop the closing </think> tag, leaving raw reasoning in the assistant's content field. _strip_think_blocks()'s closed-pair regex is non-greedy so it only matches complete blocks — any orphan <think>...EOF survived the stripper and leaked to users (#8878, #9568, #10408).
Adds an unterminated-tag pass that fires when an open reasoning tag sits at a block boundary (start of text or after a newline) with no matching close. Everything from that tag to end of string is stripped. The block-boundary check mirrors gateway/stream_consumer.py's filter so models that mention <think> in prose are not over-stripped.
Also makes the closed-pair regexes consistently case-insensitive so <THINK>...</THINK> and <Thinking>...</Thinking> are handled uniformly — previously the mixed-case open tag would bypass the closed-pair pass and be caught by the unterminated-tag pass, taking trailing visible content with it.
6 new regression tests in TestStripThinkBlocks covering: unterminated <think>, unterminated <thought>, multi-line unterminated, line-start orphan with preserved prefix, prose-mention non-regression, mixed-case closed pairs.
The implementation is inspired by @luinbytes's PR #10408 report of the NIM/MiniMax symptom. This commit does not include the 💭/🧠 emoji regexes from that PR — those glyphs are Hermes CLI display decorations, not model content markers.
Anthropic migrated their developer console from console.anthropic.com
to platform.claude.com. Two user-facing display URLs were still pointing
to the old domain:
- hermes_cli/main.py — API key prompt in the Anthropic model flow
- run_agent.py — 401 troubleshooting output
The OAuth token refresh endpoint was already migrated in PR #3246
(with fallback).
Spotted by @LucidPaths in PR #3237.
(Salvage of #3758 — dropped the setup.py hunk since that section was
refactored away and no longer contains the stale URL.)
Based on #12152 by @LVT382009.
Two fixes to run_agent.py:
1. _ephemeral_max_output_tokens consumption in chat_completions path:
The error-recovery ephemeral override was only consumed in the
anthropic_messages branch of _build_api_kwargs. All chat_completions
providers (OpenRouter, NVIDIA NIM, Qwen, Alibaba, custom, etc.)
silently ignored it. Now consumed at highest priority, matching the
anthropic pattern.
2. NVIDIA NIM max_tokens default (16384):
NVIDIA NIM falls back to a very low internal default when max_tokens
is omitted, causing models like GLM-4.7 to truncate immediately
(thinking tokens exhaust the budget before the response starts).
3. Progressive length-continuation boost:
When finish_reason='length' triggers a continuation retry, the output
budget now grows progressively (2x base on retry 1, 3x on retry 2,
capped at 32768) via _ephemeral_max_output_tokens. Previously the
retry loop just re-sent the same token limit on all 3 attempts.
Based on #11984 by @maxchernin. Fixes#8259.
Some providers (MiniMax M2.7 via NVIDIA NIM) resend the full function
name in every streaming chunk instead of only the first. The old
accumulator used += which concatenated them into 'read_fileread_file'.
Changed to simple assignment (=), matching the OpenAI Node SDK, LiteLLM,
and Vercel AI SDK patterns. Function names are atomic identifiers
delivered complete — no provider splits them across chunks, so
concatenation was never correct semantics.
* feat(steer): /steer <prompt> injects a mid-run note after the next tool call
Adds a new slash command that sits between /queue (turn boundary) and
interrupt. /steer <text> stashes the message on the running agent and
the agent loop appends it to the LAST tool result's content once the
current tool batch finishes. The model sees it as part of the tool
output on its next iteration.
No interrupt is fired, no new user turn is inserted, and no prompt
cache invalidation happens beyond the normal per-turn tool-result
churn. Message-role alternation is preserved — we only modify an
existing role:"tool" message's content.
Wiring
------
- hermes_cli/commands.py: register /steer + add to ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS.
- run_agent.py: add _pending_steer state, AIAgent.steer(), _drain_pending_steer(),
_apply_pending_steer_to_tool_results(); drain at end of both parallel and
sequential tool executors; clear on interrupt; return leftover as
result['pending_steer'] if the agent exits before another tool batch.
- cli.py: /steer handler — route to agent.steer() when running, fall back to
the regular queue otherwise; deliver result['pending_steer'] as next turn.
- gateway/run.py: running-agent intercept calls running_agent.steer(); idle-agent
path strips the prefix and forwards as a regular user message.
- tui_gateway/server.py: new session.steer JSON-RPC method.
- ui-tui: SessionSteerResponse type + local /steer slash command that calls
session.steer when ui.busy, otherwise enqueues for the next turn.
Fallbacks
---------
- Agent exits mid-steer → surfaces in run_conversation result as pending_steer
so CLI/gateway deliver it as the next user turn instead of silently dropping it.
- All tools skipped after interrupt → re-stashes pending_steer for the caller.
- No active agent → /steer reduces to sending the text as a normal message.
Tests
-----
- tests/run_agent/test_steer.py — accept/reject, concatenation, drain,
last-tool-result injection, multimodal list content, thread safety,
cleared-on-interrupt, registry membership, bypass-set membership.
- tests/gateway/test_steer_command.py — running agent, pending sentinel,
missing steer() method, rejected payload, empty payload.
- tests/gateway/test_command_bypass_active_session.py — /steer bypasses
the Level-1 base adapter guard.
- tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py — session.steer RPC paths.
72/72 targeted tests pass under scripts/run_tests.sh.
* feat(steer): register /steer in Discord's native slash tree
Discord's app_commands tree is a curated subset of slash commands (not
derived from COMMAND_REGISTRY like Telegram/Slack). /steer already
works there as plain text (routes through handle_message → base
adapter bypass → runner), but registering it here adds Discord's
native autocomplete + argument hint UI so users can discover and
type it like any other first-class command.
When streaming died after text was already delivered to the user but
before a tool-call's arguments finished streaming, the partial-stream
stub at the end of _interruptible_streaming_api_call silently set
`tool_calls=None` on the returned message and kept `finish_reason=stop`.
The agent treated the turn as complete, the session exited cleanly with
code 0, and the attempted action was lost with zero user-facing signal.
Live-observed Apr 2026 with MiniMax M2.7 on a ~6-minute audit task:
agent streamed 'Let me write the audit:', started emitting a write_file
tool call, MiniMax stalled for 240s mid-arguments, the stale-stream
detector killed the connection, the stub fired, session ended, no file
written, no error shown.
Fix: the streaming accumulator now records each tool-call's name into
`result['partial_tool_names']` as soon as the name is known. When the
stub builder fires after a partial delivery and finds any recorded tool
names, it appends a human-visible warning to the stub's content — and
also fires it as a live stream delta so the user sees it immediately,
not only in the persisted transcript. The next turn's model also sees
the warning in conversation history and can retry on its own. Text-only
partial streams keep the original bare-recovery behaviour (no warning).
Validation:
| Scenario | Before | After |
|---------------------------------------------|---------------------------|---------------------------------------------|
| Stream dies mid tool-call, text already sent | Silent exit, no indication | User sees ⚠ warning naming the dropped tool |
| Text-only partial stream | Bare recovered text | Unchanged |
| tests/run_agent/test_streaming.py | 24 passed | 26 passed (2 new) |
* fix(interrupt): propagate to concurrent-tool workers + opt-in debug trace
interrupt() previously only flagged the agent's _execution_thread_id.
Tools running inside _execute_tool_calls_concurrent execute on
ThreadPoolExecutor worker threads whose tids are distinct from the
agent's, so is_interrupted() inside those tools returned False no matter
how many times the gateway called .interrupt() — hung ssh / curl / long
make-builds ran to their own timeout.
Changes:
- run_agent.py: track concurrent-tool worker tids in a per-agent set,
fan interrupt()/clear_interrupt() out to them, and handle the
register-after-interrupt race at _run_tool entry. getattr fallback
for the tracker so test stubs built via object.__new__ keep working.
- tools/environments/base.py: opt-in _wait_for_process trace (ENTER,
per-30s HEARTBEAT with interrupt+activity-cb state, INTERRUPT
DETECTED, TIMEOUT, EXIT) behind HERMES_DEBUG_INTERRUPT=1.
- tools/interrupt.py: opt-in set_interrupt() trace (caller tid, target
tid, set snapshot) behind the same env flag.
- tests: new regression test runs a polling tool on a concurrent worker
and asserts is_interrupted() flips to True within ~1s of interrupt().
Second new test guards clear_interrupt() clearing tracked worker bits.
Validation: tests/run_agent/ all 762 pass; tests/tools/ interrupt+env
subset 216 pass.
* fix(interrupt-debug): bypass quiet_mode logger filter so trace reaches agent.log
AIAgent.__init__ sets logging.getLogger('tools').setLevel(ERROR) when
quiet_mode=True (the CLI default). This would silently swallow every
INFO-level trace line from the HERMES_DEBUG_INTERRUPT=1 instrumentation
added in the parent commit — confirmed by running hermes chat -q with
the flag and finding zero trace lines in agent.log even though
_wait_for_process was clearly executing (subprocess pid existed).
Fix: when HERMES_DEBUG_INTERRUPT=1, each traced module explicitly sets
its own logger level to INFO at import time, overriding the 'tools'
parent-level filter. Scoped to the opt-in case only, so production
(quiet_mode default) logs stay quiet as designed.
Validation: hermes chat -q with HERMES_DEBUG_INTERRUPT=1 now writes
'_wait_for_process ENTER/EXIT' lines to agent.log as expected.
* fix(cli): SIGTERM/SIGHUP no longer orphans tool subprocesses
Tool subprocesses spawned by the local environment backend use
os.setsid so they run in their own process group. Before this fix,
SIGTERM/SIGHUP to the hermes CLI killed the main thread via
KeyboardInterrupt but the worker thread running _wait_for_process
never got a chance to call _kill_process — Python exited, the child
was reparented to init (PPID=1), and the subprocess ran to its
natural end (confirmed live: sleep 300 survived 4+ min after SIGTERM
to the agent until manual cleanup).
Changes:
- cli.py _signal_handler (interactive) + _signal_handler_q (-q mode):
route SIGTERM/SIGHUP through agent.interrupt() so the worker's poll
loop sees the per-thread interrupt flag and calls _kill_process
(os.killpg) on the subprocess group. HERMES_SIGTERM_GRACE (default
1.5s) gives the worker time to complete its SIGTERM+SIGKILL
escalation before KeyboardInterrupt unwinds main.
- tools/environments/base.py _wait_for_process: wrap the poll loop in
try/except (KeyboardInterrupt, SystemExit) so the cleanup fires
even on paths the signal handlers don't cover (direct sys.exit,
unhandled KI from nested code, etc.). Emits EXCEPTION_EXIT trace
line when HERMES_DEBUG_INTERRUPT=1.
- New regression test: injects KeyboardInterrupt into a running
_wait_for_process via PyThreadState_SetAsyncExc, verifies the
subprocess process group is dead within 3s of the exception and
that KeyboardInterrupt re-raises cleanly afterward.
Validation:
| Before | After |
|---------------------------------------------------------|--------------------|
| sleep 300 survives 4+ min as PPID=1 orphan after SIGTERM | dies within 2 s |
| No INTERRUPT DETECTED in trace | INTERRUPT DETECTED fires + killing process group |
| tests/tools/test_local_interrupt_cleanup | 1/1 pass |
| tests/run_agent/test_concurrent_interrupt | 4/4 pass |
Replace the hardcoded 'kimi-for-coding' string check with the helper
from auxiliary_client so there is one source of truth for the list of
models with fixed-temperature contracts. Adding a new entry to
_FIXED_TEMPERATURE_MODELS now automatically covers flush_memories too.
Byte-level reasoning models (xiaomi/mimo-v2-pro, kimi, glm) can emit lone
surrogates in reasoning output. The proactive sanitizer walked content/
name/tool_calls but not extra fields like reasoning or the nested
reasoning_details array. Surrogates in those fields survived the
proactive pass, crashed json.dumps() in the OpenAI SDK, and the recovery
block's _sanitize_messages_surrogates(messages) call also didn't check
those fields — so 'found' was False, no retry happened, and after 3
attempts the user saw:
API call failed after 3 retries. 'utf-8' codec can't encode characters
in position N-M: surrogates not allowed
Changes:
- _sanitize_messages_surrogates: walk any extra string fields (reasoning,
reasoning_content, etc.) and recurse into nested dict/list values
(reasoning_details). Mirrors _sanitize_messages_non_ascii coverage
added in PR #10537.
- _sanitize_structure_surrogates: new recursive walker, mirror of
_sanitize_structure_non_ascii but for surrogate recovery.
- UnicodeEncodeError recovery block: also sanitize api_messages,
api_kwargs, and prefill_messages (not just the canonical messages
list — the API-copy carries reasoning_content transformed from
reasoning and that's what the SDK actually serializes). Always
retry on detected surrogate errors, not only when we found
something to strip — gate on error type per PR #10537's pattern.
Tests: extended tests/cli/test_surrogate_sanitization.py with
coverage for reasoning, reasoning_content, reasoning_details (flat
and deeply nested), structure walker, and an integration case that
reproduces the exact api_messages shape that was crashing.
The 'Thinking Budget Exhausted' user-facing error message advised users to
'set model.max_tokens in config.yaml'. That config key is documented but
intentionally not wired through to the API call in CLI/gateway paths — we
omit max_tokens by default so the inference server uses its full output
budget (llama-server -1=infinity, vLLM max_model_len-prompt_len, etc.).
Users followed the suggestion, saw no change, and kept filing bugs (see
closed#4404, #10917, #6955 and PRs #5001/#6080/#6446/#6707/#7075/#8804/
#10924/#11173/#11268 — all reporting the same misdirection).
Replace the misleading suggestion with an actionable one: switch models
via /model. Lowering reasoning effort remains the primary remediation.
* fix(gateway): bound _agent_cache with LRU cap + idle TTL eviction
The per-session AIAgent cache was unbounded. Each cached AIAgent holds
LLM clients, tool schemas, memory providers, and a conversation buffer.
In a long-lived gateway serving many chats/threads, cached agents
accumulated indefinitely — entries were only evicted on /new, /model,
or session reset.
Changes:
- Cache is now an OrderedDict so we can pop least-recently-used entries.
- _enforce_agent_cache_cap() pops entries beyond _AGENT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=64
when a new agent is inserted. LRU order is refreshed via move_to_end()
on cache hits.
- _sweep_idle_cached_agents() evicts entries whose AIAgent has been idle
longer than _AGENT_CACHE_IDLE_TTL_SECS=3600s. Runs from the existing
_session_expiry_watcher so no new background task is created.
- The expiry watcher now also pops the cache entry after calling
_cleanup_agent_resources on a flushed session — previously the agent
was shut down but its reference stayed in the cache dict.
- Evicted agents have _cleanup_agent_resources() called on a daemon
thread so the cache lock isn't held during slow teardown.
Both tuning constants live at module scope so tests can monkeypatch
them without touching class state.
Tests: 7 new cases in test_agent_cache.py covering LRU eviction,
move_to_end refresh, cleanup thread dispatch, idle TTL sweep,
defensive handling of agents without _last_activity_ts, and plain-dict
test fixture tolerance.
* tweak: bump _AGENT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE 64 -> 128
* fix(gateway): never evict mid-turn agents; live spillover tests
The prior commit could tear down an active agent if its session_key
happened to be LRU when the cap was exceeded. AIAgent.close() kills
process_registry entries for the task, tears down the terminal
sandbox, closes the OpenAI client (sets self.client = None), and
cascades .close() into any active child subagents — all fatal if
the agent is still processing a turn.
Changes:
- _enforce_agent_cache_cap and _sweep_idle_cached_agents now look at
GatewayRunner._running_agents and skip any entry whose AIAgent
instance is present (identity via id(), so MagicMock doesn't
confuse lookup in tests). _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL is treated
as 'not active' since no real agent exists yet.
- Eviction only considers the LRU-excess window (first size-cap
entries). If an excess slot is held by a mid-turn agent, we skip
it WITHOUT compensating by evicting a newer entry. A freshly
inserted session (zero cache history) shouldn't be punished to
protect a long-lived one that happens to be busy.
- Cache may therefore stay transiently over cap when load spikes;
a WARNING is logged so operators can see it, and the next insert
re-runs the check after some turns have finished.
New tests (TestAgentCacheActiveSafety + TestAgentCacheSpilloverLive):
- Active LRU entry is skipped; no newer entry compensated
- Mixed active/idle excess window: only idle slots go
- All-active cache: no eviction, WARNING logged, all clients intact
- _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL doesn't block other evictions
- Idle-TTL sweep skips active agents
- End-to-end: active agent's .client survives eviction attempt
- Live fill-to-cap with real AIAgents, then spillover
- Live: CAP=4 all active + 1 newcomer — cache grows to 5, no teardown
- Live: 8 threads racing 160 inserts into CAP=16 — settles at 16
- Live: evicted session's next turn gets a fresh agent that works
30 tests pass (13 pre-existing + 17 new). Related gateway suites
(model switch, session reset, proxy, etc.) all green.
* fix(gateway): cache eviction preserves per-task state for session resume
The prior commits called AIAgent.close() on cache-evicted agents, which
tears down process_registry entries, terminal sandbox, and browser
daemon for that task_id — permanently. Fine for session-expiry (session
ended), wrong for cache eviction (session may resume).
Real-world scenario: a user leaves a Telegram session open for 2+ hours,
idle TTL evicts the cached AIAgent, user returns and sends a message.
Conversation history is preserved via SessionStore, but their terminal
sandbox (cwd, env vars, bg shells) and browser state were destroyed.
Fix: split the two cleanup modes.
close() Full teardown — session ended. Kills bg procs,
tears down terminal sandbox + browser daemon,
closes LLM client. Used by session-expiry,
/new, /reset (unchanged).
release_clients() Soft cleanup — session may resume. Closes
LLM client only. Leaves process_registry,
terminal sandbox, browser daemon intact
for the resuming agent to inherit via
shared task_id.
Gateway cache eviction (_enforce_agent_cache_cap, _sweep_idle_cached_agents)
now dispatches _release_evicted_agent_soft on the daemon thread instead
of _cleanup_agent_resources. All session-expiry call sites of
_cleanup_agent_resources are unchanged.
Tests (TestAgentCacheIdleResume, 5 new cases):
- release_clients does NOT call process_registry.kill_all
- release_clients does NOT call cleanup_vm / cleanup_browser
- release_clients DOES close the LLM client (agent.client is None after)
- close() vs release_clients() — semantic contract pinned
- Idle-evicted session's rebuild with same session_id gets same task_id
Updated test_cap_triggers_cleanup_thread to assert the soft path fires
and the hard path does NOT.
35 tests pass in test_agent_cache.py; 67 related tests green.
Re-land of #10933, now guarded by the tests in #11266.
When a provider drops a TCP connection mid-stream, the socket can enter
CLOSE-WAIT and ''epoll_wait'' may never fire — no data or error signal
arrives, so the httpx read timeout never triggers and the agent hangs
indefinitely. The other defenses (''_force_close_tcp_sockets'', stale
stream detector) all ride on the socket layer reporting the dead
connection, which it never does without probes.
Inject ''SO_KEEPALIVE'' + ''TCP_KEEPIDLE''/''KEEPINTVL''/''KEEPCNT''
into the httpx transport. Kernel probes after 30s idle, retries every
10s, gives up after 3 → dead peer detected within ~60s instead of
hanging forever. Platform-aware: ''TCP_KEEPIDLE'' on Linux,
''TCP_KEEPALIVE'' on macOS. Silent no-op on Windows or anywhere
the socket options aren't available.
The original land (#10933) mutated ''client_kwargs'' in place when it
injected the ''httpx.Client''. Since callers pass ''self._client_kwargs''
by reference, the injected client leaked into the instance state. After
the first request, the OpenAI SDK closed its ''http_client'' — including
the injected one. The next ''_create_openai_client'' call re-read the
now-closed ''httpx.Client'' from ''self._client_kwargs'' and every
subsequent chat raised ''APIConnectionError'' with cause ''RuntimeError:
Cannot send a request, as the client has been closed'' (AlexKucera's
Discord report, 2026-04-16).
The defensive ''client_kwargs = dict(client_kwargs)'' copy already on
main (taeuk178's #10978) means this injection only lands in the
per-call local copy. Each ''_create_openai_client'' invocation gets
its OWN fresh ''httpx.Client'' whose lifetime is tied to the paired
''OpenAI'' client. When that ''OpenAI'' client is closed (rebuild,
teardown, credential rotation), its ''httpx.Client'' closes with it
and the next call constructs a fresh one — no stale closed transport
can be reused.
Full 4-test matrix all green (unit + live with real OpenRouter round
trips, HERMES_LIVE_TESTS=1):
tests/run_agent/test_create_openai_client_kwargs_isolation.py PASS
tests/run_agent/test_create_openai_client_reuse.py PASS (2)
tests/run_agent/test_sequential_chats_live.py PASS
Socket options verified on the live httpx transport:
_socket_options: [(1, 9, 1), (6, 4, 30), (6, 5, 10), (6, 6, 3)]
= (SO_KEEPALIVE=1, TCP_KEEPIDLE=30s, TCP_KEEPINTVL=10s, TCP_KEEPCNT=3)
Sequential-chat reproduction of the #10933 failure was explicitly
run against this patch — the defensive copy on main prevents the
closed transport from leaking back into ''self._client_kwargs'', so
every rebuild constructs a fresh transport.
Closes#10324
PR #4918 fixed the double-/v1 bug at fresh agent init by stripping the
trailing /v1 from OpenCode base URLs when api_mode is anthropic_messages
(so the Anthropic SDK's own /v1/messages doesn't land on /v1/v1/messages).
The same logic was missing from the /model mid-session switch path.
Repro: start a session on opencode-go with GLM-5 (or any chat_completions
model), then `/model minimax-m2.7`. switch_model() correctly sets
api_mode=anthropic_messages via opencode_model_api_mode(), but base_url
passes through as https://opencode.ai/zen/go/v1. The Anthropic SDK then
POSTs to https://opencode.ai/zen/go/v1/v1/messages, which returns the
OpenCode website 404 HTML page (title 'Not Found | opencode').
Same bug affects `/model claude-sonnet-4-6` on opencode-zen.
Verified upstream: POST /v1/messages returns clean JSON 401 with x-api-key
auth (route works), while POST /v1/v1/messages returns the exact HTML 404
users reported.
Fix mirrors runtime_provider.resolve_runtime_provider:
- hermes_cli/model_switch.py::switch_model() strips /v1 after the OpenCode
api_mode override when the resolved mode is anthropic_messages.
- run_agent.py::AIAgent.switch_model() applies the same strip as
defense-in-depth, so any direct caller can't reintroduce the double-/v1.
Tests: 9 new regression tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_model_switch_opencode_anthropic.py
covering minimax on opencode-go, claude on opencode-zen, chat_completions
(GLM/Kimi/Gemini) keeping /v1 intact, codex_responses (GPT) keeping /v1
intact, trailing-slash handling, and the agent-level defense-in-depth.
All 61 TUI-related tests green across 3 consecutive xdist runs.
tests/tui_gateway/test_protocol.py:
- rename `get_messages` → `get_messages_as_conversation` on mock DB (method
was renamed in the real backend, test was still stubbing the old name)
- update tool-message shape expectation: `{role, name, context}` matches
current `_history_to_messages` output, not the legacy `{role, text}`
tests/hermes_cli/test_tui_resume_flow.py:
- `cmd_chat` grew a first-run provider-gate that bailed to "Run: hermes
setup" before `_launch_tui` was ever reached; 3 tests stubbed
`_resolve_last_session` + `_launch_tui` but not the gate
- factored a `main_mod` fixture that stubs `_has_any_provider_configured`,
reused by all three tests
tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py:
- `test_config_set_personality_resets_history_and_returns_info` was flaky
under xdist because the real `_write_config_key` touches
`~/.hermes/config.yaml`, racing with any other worker that writes
config. Stub it in the test.
Claude Opus 4.7 introduced several breaking API changes that the current
codebase partially handled but not completely. This patch finishes the
migration per the official migration guide at
https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/about-claude/models/migration-guideFixesNousResearch/hermes-agent#11137
Breaking-change coverage:
1. Adaptive thinking + output_config.effort — 4.7 is now recognized by
_supports_adaptive_thinking() (extends previous 4.6-only gate).
2. Sampling parameter stripping — 4.7 returns 400 for any non-default
temperature / top_p / top_k. build_anthropic_kwargs drops them as a
safety net; the OpenAI-protocol auxiliary path (_build_call_kwargs)
and AnthropicCompletionsAdapter.create() both early-exit before
setting temperature for 4.7+ models. This keeps flush_memories and
structured-JSON aux paths that hardcode temperature from 400ing
when the aux model is flipped to 4.7.
3. thinking.display = "summarized" — 4.7 defaults display to "omitted",
which silently hides reasoning text from Hermes's CLI activity feed
during long tool runs. Restoring "summarized" preserves 4.6 UX.
4. Effort level mapping — xhigh now maps to xhigh (was xhigh→max, which
silently over-efforted every coding/agentic request). max is now a
distinct ceiling per Anthropic's 5-level effort model.
5. New stop_reason values — refusal and model_context_window_exceeded
were silently collapsed to "stop" (end_turn) by the adapter's
stop_reason_map. Now mapped to "content_filter" and "length"
respectively, matching upstream finish-reason handling already in
bedrock_adapter.
6. Model catalogs — claude-opus-4-7 added to the Anthropic provider
list, anthropic/claude-opus-4.7 added at top of OpenRouter fallback
catalog (recommended), claude-opus-4-7 added to model_metadata
DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS (1M, matching 4.6 per migration guide).
7. Prefill docstrings — run_agent.AIAgent and BatchRunner now document
that Anthropic Sonnet/Opus 4.6+ reject a trailing assistant-role
prefill (400).
8. Tests — 4 new tests in test_anthropic_adapter covering display
default, xhigh preservation, max on 4.7, refusal / context-overflow
stop_reason mapping, plus the sampling-param predicate. test_model_metadata
accepts 4.7 at 1M context.
Tested on macOS 15.5 (darwin). 119 tests pass in
tests/agent/test_anthropic_adapter.py, 1320 pass in tests/agent/.
Shallow-copy client_kwargs at the top of _create_openai_client() to
prevent in-place mutation from leaking back into self._client_kwargs.
Defensive fix that locks the contract for future httpx/transport work.
Cherry-picked from #10978 by @taeuk178.
The gateway compression notifications were already removed in commit cc63b2d1
(PR #4139), but the agent-level context pressure warnings (85%/95% tiered
alerts via _emit_context_pressure) were still firing on both CLI and gateway.
Removed:
- _emit_context_pressure method and all call sites in run_conversation()
- Class-level dedup state (_context_pressure_last_warned, _CONTEXT_PRESSURE_COOLDOWN)
- Instance attribute _context_pressure_warned_at
- Pressure reset logic in _compress_context
- format_context_pressure and format_context_pressure_gateway from agent/display.py
- Orphaned ANSI constants that only served these functions
- tests/run_agent/test_context_pressure.py (all 361 lines)
Compression itself continues to run silently in the background.
Closes#3784
When a model returns an empty response after tool calls with no new
tool_calls in the follow-up turn, the code enters the "nudge" recovery
path which referenced `assistant_msg` before it was assigned. This
variable is only set in the tool-calls branch (line 10098), but the
nudge code lives in the no-tool-calls branch (line 10263+).
The fix builds a fresh assistant message dict via `_build_assistant_message()`
instead of reusing the unbound variable, consistent with the exhausted-
retries path at line 10457.
Three targeted fixes for the 'agent stuck on terminal command' report:
1. **Concurrent tool wait loop now checks interrupts** (run_agent.py)
The sequential path checked _interrupt_requested before each tool call,
but the concurrent path's wait loop just blocked with 30s timeouts.
Now polls every 5s and cancels pending futures on interrupt, giving
already-running tools 3s to notice the per-thread interrupt signal.
2. **Cancelled concurrent tools get proper interrupt messages** (run_agent.py)
When a concurrent tool is cancelled or didn't return a result due to
interrupt, the tool result message says 'skipped due to user interrupt'
instead of a generic error.
3. **Typing indicator fires before follow-up turn** (gateway/run.py)
After an interrupt is acknowledged and the pending message dequeued,
the gateway now sends a typing indicator before starting the recursive
_run_agent call. This gives the user immediate visual feedback that
the system is processing their new message (closing the perceived
'dead air' gap between the interrupt ack and the response).
Reported by @_SushantSays.
When a custom provider drops a connection mid-stream, the TCP socket
can enter CLOSE-WAIT and the httpx read timeout may never fire —
epoll_wait blocks indefinitely because no data or error signal arrives.
The agent hangs until manually killed.
The existing defenses (httpx read timeout, stale stream detector,
_force_close_tcp_sockets) are all time-based and work correctly once
triggered, but they rely on the socket layer reporting the dead
connection. Without TCP keepalives, the kernel has no reason to probe
a silent connection.
Fix: inject SO_KEEPALIVE + TCP_KEEPIDLE/KEEPINTVL/KEEPCNT into the
httpx transport via socket_options. The kernel probes idle connections
after 30s, retries every 10s, gives up after 3 failures — dead peer
detected within ~60s instead of hanging forever.
Platform-aware: uses TCP_KEEPIDLE on Linux, TCP_KEEPALIVE on macOS.
Falls back silently if socket options aren't available (Windows, etc.).
Closes#10324
Skins define waiting_faces, thinking_faces, and thinking_verbs in their
spinner config, but all 7 call sites in run_agent.py used hardcoded class
constants. Add three classmethods on KawaiiSpinner that query the active
skin first and fall back to the class constants, matching the existing
pattern used for wings/tool_prefix/tool_emojis.

When a custom/Ollama provider is used and reasoning_effort is set to 'none'
(or enabled: false), inject 'think': false into the request extra_body.
Ollama does not recognise the OpenRouter-style 'reasoning' extra_body field,
so thinking-capable models (Qwen3, etc.) generate <think> blocks regardless
of the reasoning_effort setting. This produces empty-response errors that
corrupt session state.
The fix adds a provider-specific block in _build_api_kwargs() that sets
think=false in extra_body whenever self.provider == 'custom' and reasoning
is explicitly disabled.
Closes#3191
When no provider was set in config.yaml and auto-detection found no
credentials, the agent silently fell back to bare OPENROUTER_API_KEY
from the environment and sent the configured model name to OpenRouter.
This produced undefined behavior -- wrong provider, wrong model routing,
and auxiliary tasks (compression, vision) hitting the wrong endpoint.
Fix: replace the silent fallback with a hard RuntimeError telling
the user to run hermes model or hermes setup. The provider must
be explicitly configured -- env vars are for secrets, not config.
* fix: show correct env var name in provider API key error (#9506)
The error message for missing provider API keys dynamically built
the env var name as PROVIDER_API_KEY (e.g. ALIBABA_API_KEY), but
some providers use different names (alibaba uses DASHSCOPE_API_KEY).
Users following the error message set the wrong variable.
Fix: look up the actual env var from PROVIDER_REGISTRY before
building the error. Falls back to the dynamic name if the registry
lookup fails.
Closes#9506
* fix: five HERMES_HOME profile-isolation leaks (#5947)
Bug A: Thread session_title from session_db to memory provider init kwargs
so honcho can derive chat-scoped session keys instead of falling back to
cwd-based naming that merges all gateway users into one session.
Bug B: Replace 14 hardcoded ~/.hermes/skills/ paths across 10 skill files
with HERMES_HOME-aware alternatives (${HERMES_HOME:-$HOME/.hermes} in
shell, os.environ.get('HERMES_HOME', ...) in Python).
Bug C: install.sh now respects HERMES_HOME env var and adds --hermes-home
flag. Previously --dir only set INSTALL_DIR while HERMES_HOME was always
hardcoded to $HOME/.hermes.
Bug D: Remove hardcoded ~/.hermes/honcho.json fallback in resolve_config_path().
Non-default profiles no longer silently inherit the default profile's honcho
config. Falls through to ~/.honcho/config.json (global) instead.
Bug E: Guard _edit_skill, _patch_skill, _delete_skill, _write_file, and
_remove_file against writing to skills found in external_dirs. Skills
outside the local SKILLS_DIR are now read-only from the agent's perspective.
Closes#5947
When Nous returns a 429, the retry amplification chain burns up to 9
API requests per conversation turn (3 SDK retries × 3 Hermes retries),
each counting against RPH and deepening the rate limit. With multiple
concurrent sessions (cron + gateway + auxiliary), this creates a spiral
where retries keep the limit tapped indefinitely.
New module: agent/nous_rate_guard.py
- Shared file-based rate limit state (~/.hermes/rate_limits/nous.json)
- Parses reset time from x-ratelimit-reset-requests-1h, x-ratelimit-
reset-requests, retry-after headers, or error context
- Falls back to 5-minute default cooldown if no header data
- Atomic writes (tempfile + rename) for cross-process safety
- Auto-cleanup of expired state files
run_agent.py changes:
- Top-of-retry-loop guard: when another session already recorded Nous
as rate-limited, skip the API call entirely. Try fallback provider
first, then return a clear message with the reset time.
- On 429 from Nous: record rate limit state and skip further retries
(sets retry_count = max_retries to trigger fallback path)
- On success from Nous: clear the rate limit state so other sessions
know they can resume
auxiliary_client.py changes:
- _try_nous() checks rate guard before attempting Nous in the auxiliary
fallback chain. When rate-limited, returns (None, None) so the chain
skips to the next provider instead of piling more requests onto Nous.
This eliminates three sources of amplification:
1. Hermes-level retries (saves 6 of 9 calls per turn)
2. Cross-session retries (cron + gateway all skip Nous)
3. Auxiliary fallback to Nous (compression/session_search skip too)
Includes 24 tests covering the rate guard module, header parsing,
state lifecycle, and auxiliary client integration.
The error message for missing provider API keys dynamically built
the env var name as PROVIDER_API_KEY (e.g. ALIBABA_API_KEY), but
some providers use different names (alibaba uses DASHSCOPE_API_KEY).
Users following the error message set the wrong variable.
Fix: look up the actual env var from PROVIDER_REGISTRY before
building the error. Falls back to the dynamic name if the registry
lookup fails.
Closes#9506
The GPT-5 auto-upgrade logic unconditionally overrode api_mode to
codex_responses for any model starting with gpt-5, even when the
user explicitly set api_mode=chat_completions. Custom proxies that
serve GPT-5 via /chat/completions became unusable.
Fix: check api_mode is None before the override fires. If the caller
passed any explicit api_mode, it is final -- no auto-upgrade.
Closes#10473
When proxy env vars (HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY, ALL_PROXY) contain
malformed URLs — e.g. 'http://127.0.0.1:6153export' from a broken
shell config — the OpenAI/httpx client throws a cryptic 'Invalid port'
error that doesn't identify the offending variable.
Add _validate_proxy_env_urls() and _validate_base_url() in
auxiliary_client.py, called from resolve_provider_client() and
_create_openai_client() to fail fast with a clear, actionable error
message naming the broken env var or URL.
Closes#6360

The recovery block previously only retried (continue) when one of the
per-component sanitization checks (messages, tools, system prompt,
headers, credentials) found and stripped non-ASCII content. When the
non-ASCII lived only in api_messages' reasoning_content field (which
is built from messages['reasoning'] and not checked by the original
_sanitize_messages_non_ascii), all checks returned False and the
recovery fell through to the normal error path — burning a retry
attempt despite _force_ascii_payload being set.
Now the recovery always continues (retries) when _is_ascii_codec is
detected. The _force_ascii_payload flag guarantees the next iteration
runs _sanitize_structure_non_ascii(api_kwargs) on the full API payload,
catching any remaining non-ASCII regardless of where it lives.
Also adds test for the 'reasoning' field on canonical messages.
Fixes#6843
The ASCII-locale recovery path in run_agent.py sanitized the canonical
'messages' list but left 'api_messages' untouched. api_messages is a
separate API-copy built before the retry loop and may carry extra fields
(reasoning_content, extra_body entries) that are not present in
'messages'. This caused the retry to still raise UnicodeEncodeError even
after the 'System encoding is ASCII — stripped...' log line appeared.
Two changes:
- _sanitize_messages_non_ascii now walks all extra top-level string fields
in each message dict (any key not in {content, name, tool_calls, role})
so reasoning_content and future extras are cleaned in both 'messages'
and 'api_messages'.
- The ASCII-codec recovery block now also calls sanitize on api_messages
and api_kwargs so no non-ASCII survives into the next retry attempt.
Adds regression tests covering:
- reasoning_content with non-ASCII in api_messages
- extra_body with non-ASCII in api_kwargs
- canonical messages clean but api_messages dirty
Fixes#6843
Memory provider plugins (e.g. Mnemosyne) can register tools via two paths:
1. Plugin system (ctx.register_tool) → tool registry → get_tool_definitions()
2. Memory manager → get_all_tool_schemas() → direct append in AIAgent.__init__
Path 2 blindly appended without checking if path 1 already added the same
tool names. This created duplicate function names in the tools array sent
to the API. Most providers silently handle duplicates, but Xiaomi MiMo
(via Nous Portal) strictly rejects them with a 400 Bad Request.
Fix: build a set of existing tool names before memory manager injection
and skip any tool whose name is already present.
Confirmed via live testing against Nous Portal:
- Unique tool names → 200 OK
- Duplicate tool names → 400 'Provider returned error'
The on_memory_write bridge that notifies external memory providers
(ClawMem, retaindb, supermemory, etc.) of built-in memory writes was
only present in the concurrent tool execution path (_invoke_tool).
The sequential path (_execute_tool_calls_sequential) — which handles
all single tool calls, the common case — was missing it entirely.
This meant external memory providers silently missed every single-call
memory write, which is the vast majority of memory operations.
Fix: add the identical bridge block to the sequential path, right
after the memory_tool call returns.
Closes#10174
Multiple gaps in activity tracking could cause the gateway's inactivity
timeout to fire while the agent is actively working:
1. Streaming wait loop had no periodic heartbeat — the outer thread only
touched activity when the stale-stream detector fired (180-300s), and
for local providers (Ollama) the stale timeout was infinity, meaning
zero heartbeats. Now touches activity every 30s.
2. Concurrent tool execution never set the activity callback on worker
threads (threading.local invisible across threads) and never set
_current_tool. Workers now set the callback, and the concurrent wait
uses a polling loop with 30s heartbeats.
3. Modal backend's execute() override had its own polling loop without
any activity callback. Now matches _wait_for_process cadence (10s).
The _last_content_with_tools fallback was firing indiscriminately for ALL
content+tool turns, including mid-task narration alongside substantive
tools (terminal, search_files, etc.). This caused the agent to exit
the loop with 'I'll scan the directory...' as the final answer instead
of nudging the model to continue processing tool results.
The fix restricts the fallback to housekeeping-only turns (memory, todo,
skill_manage, session_search) where the content genuinely IS the final
answer. When substantive tools are present, the existing post-tool
nudge mechanism now fires instead, prompting the model to continue.
Affected models: xiaomi/mimo-v2-pro, GLM-5, and other weaker models
that intermittently return empty after tool results.
Reported by user Renaissance on Discord.
OV transparently handles message history across /new and /compress: old
messages stay in the same session and extraction is idempotent, so there's
no need to rebind providers to a new session_id. The only thing the
session boundary actually needs is to trigger extraction.
- MemoryProvider / MemoryManager: remove on_session_reset hook
- OpenViking: remove on_session_reset override (nothing to do)
- AIAgent: replace rotate_memory_session with commit_memory_session
(just calls on_session_end, no rebind)
- cli.py / run_agent.py: single commit_memory_session call at the
session boundary before session_id rotates
- tests: replace on_session_reset coverage with routing tests for
MemoryManager.on_session_end

Replace hasattr-forked OpenViking-specific paths with a proper base-class
hook. Collapse the two agent wrappers into a single rotate_memory_session
so callers don't orchestrate commit + rebind themselves.
- MemoryProvider: add on_session_reset(new_session_id) as a default no-op
- MemoryManager: on_session_reset fans out unconditionally (no hasattr,
no builtin skip — base no-op covers it)
- OpenViking: rename reset_session -> on_session_reset; drop the explicit
POST /api/v1/sessions (OV auto-creates on first message) and the two
debug raise_for_status wrappers
- AIAgent: collapse commit_memory_session + reinitialize_memory_session
into rotate_memory_session(new_sid, messages)
- cli.py / run_agent.py: replace hasattr blocks and the split calls with
a single unconditional rotate_memory_session call; compression path
now passes the real messages list instead of []
- tests: align with on_session_reset, assert reset does NOT POST /sessions

The OpenViking memory provider extracts memories when its session is
committed (POST /api/v1/sessions/{id}/commit). Before this fix, the
CLI had two code paths that changed the active session_id without ever
committing the outgoing OpenViking session:
1. /new (new_session() in cli.py) — called flush_memories() to write
MEMORY.md, then immediately discarded the old session_id. The
accumulated OpenViking session was never committed, so all context
from that session was lost before extraction could run.
2. /compress and auto-compress (_compress_context() in run_agent.py) —
split the SQLite session (new session_id) but left the OpenViking
provider pointing at the old session_id with no commit, meaning all
messages synced to OpenViking were silently orphaned.
The gateway already handles session commit on /new and /reset via
shutdown_memory_provider() on the cached agent; the CLI path did not.
Fix: introduce a lightweight session-transition lifecycle alongside
the existing full shutdown path:
- OpenVikingMemoryProvider.reset_session(new_session_id): waits for
in-flight background threads, resets per-session counters, and
creates the new OV session via POST /api/v1/sessions — without
tearing down the HTTP client (avoids connection overhead on /new).
- MemoryManager.restart_session(new_session_id): calls reset_session()
on providers that implement it; falls back to initialize() for
providers that do not. Skips the builtin provider (no per-session
state).
- AIAgent.commit_memory_session(messages): wraps
memory_manager.on_session_end() without shutdown — commits OV session
for extraction but leaves the provider alive for the next session.
- AIAgent.reinitialize_memory_session(new_session_id): wraps
memory_manager.restart_session() — transitions all external providers
to the new session after session_id has been assigned.
Call sites:
- cli.py new_session(): commit BEFORE session_id changes, reinitialize
AFTER — ensuring OV extraction runs on the correct session and the
new session is immediately ready for the next turn.
- run_agent._compress_context(): same pattern, inside the
if self._session_db: block where the session_id split happens.
/compress and auto-compress are functionally identical at this layer:
both call _compress_context(), so both are fixed by the same change.
Tests added to tests/agent/test_memory_provider.py:
- TestMemoryManagerRestartSession: reset_session() routing, builtin
skip, initialize() fallback, failure tolerance, empty-manager noop.
- TestOpenVikingResetSession: session_id update, per-session state
clear, POST /api/v1/sessions call, API failure tolerance, no-client
noop.

With store=False (our default for the Responses API), the API does not
persist response items. When reasoning items with 'id' fields were
replayed on subsequent turns, the API attempted a server-side lookup
for those IDs and returned 404:
Item with id 'rs_...' not found. Items are not persisted when store
is set to false.
The encrypted_content blob is self-contained for reasoning chain
continuity — the id field is unnecessary and triggers the failed lookup.
Fix: strip 'id' from reasoning items in both _chat_messages_to_responses_input
(message conversion) and _preflight_codex_input_items (normalization layer).
The id is still used for local deduplication but never sent to the API.
Reported by @zuogl448 on GPT-5.4.
The existing recovery block sanitized self.api_key and
self._client_kwargs['api_key'] but did not update self.client.api_key.
The OpenAI SDK stores its own copy of api_key and reads it dynamically
via the auth_headers property on every request. Without this fix, the
retry after sanitization would still send the corrupted key in the
Authorization header, causing the same UnicodeEncodeError.
The bug manifests when an API key contains Unicode lookalike characters
(e.g. ʋ U+028B instead of v) from copy-pasting out of PDFs, rich-text
editors, or web pages with decorative fonts. httpx hard-encodes all
HTTP headers as ASCII, so the non-ASCII char in the Authorization
header triggers the error.
Adds TestApiKeyClientSync with two tests verifying:
- All three key locations are synced after sanitization
- Recovery handles client=None (pre-init) without crashing
Three independent fixes:
1. Reset activity timestamp on cached agent reuse (#9051)
When the gateway reuses a cached AIAgent for a new turn, the
_last_activity_ts from the previous turn (possibly hours ago)
carried over. The inactivity timeout handler immediately saw
the agent as idle for hours and killed it.
Fix: reset _last_activity_ts, _last_activity_desc, and
_api_call_count when retrieving an agent from the cache.
2. Detect uv-managed virtual environments (#8620 sub-issue 1)
The systemd unit generator fell back to sys.executable (uv's
standalone Python) when running under 'uv run', because
sys.prefix == sys.base_prefix (uv doesn't set up traditional
venv activation). The generated ExecStart pointed to a Python
binary without site-packages, crashing the service on startup.
Fix: check VIRTUAL_ENV env var before falling back to
sys.executable. uv sets VIRTUAL_ENV even when sys.prefix
doesn't reflect the venv.
3. Nudge model to continue after empty post-tool response (#9400)
Weaker models (GLM-5, mimo-v2-pro) sometimes return empty
responses after tool calls instead of continuing to the next
step. The agent silently abandoned the remaining work with
'(empty)' or used prior-turn fallback text.
Fix: when the model returns empty after tool calls AND there's
no prior-turn content to fall back on, inject a one-time user
nudge message telling the model to process the tool results and
continue. The flag resets after each successful tool round so it
can fire again on later rounds.
Test plan: 97 gateway + CLI tests pass, 9 venv detection tests pass
Previously, non-integer context_length values (e.g. '256K') in
config.yaml were silently ignored, causing the agent to fall back
to 128K auto-detection with no user feedback. This was confusing
for users with custom LiteLLM endpoints expecting larger context.
Now prints a clear stderr warning and logs at WARNING level when
model.context_length or custom_providers[].models.<model>.context_length
cannot be parsed as an integer, telling users to use plain integers
(e.g. 256000 instead of '256K').
Reported by community user ChFarhan via Discord.
When compression fails after max attempts, the agent returns
{completed: False, partial: True} but was missing the 'failed' flag.
The gateway's agent_failed_early guard checked for 'failed' AND
'not final_response', but _run_agent_blocking always converts errors
to final_response — making the guard dead code. This caused the
oversized session to persist, creating an infinite fail loop where
every subsequent message hits the same compression failure.
Changes:
- run_agent.py: add 'failed: True' and 'compression_exhausted: True'
to all 5 compression-exhaustion return paths
- gateway/run.py (_run_agent_blocking): forward 'failed' and
'compression_exhausted' flags through to the caller
- gateway/run.py (_handle_message_with_agent): fix agent_failed_early
to check bool(failed) without the broken 'not final_response' clause;
auto-reset the session when compression is exhausted so the next
message starts fresh
- Update tests to match new guard logic and add
TestCompressionExhaustedFlag test class
Closes#9893
Three bugfixes in the agent loop:
1. Reset retry counters after context compression. Without this,
pre-compression retry counts carry over, causing the model to
hit empty-response recovery immediately after a compression-
induced context loss, wasting API calls on a now-valid context.
2. Unmute output in the final-response (no-tool-call) branch.
_mute_post_response could be left True from a prior housekeeping
turn, silently suppressing empty-response warnings and recovery
status that the user should see.
3. Stop injecting 'Calling the X tools...' into assistant message
content when falling back to prior-turn content. This mutated
conversation history with synthetic text that the model never
produced, poisoning subsequent turns.
API keys containing Unicode lookalike characters (e.g. ʋ U+028B instead
of v) cause UnicodeEncodeError when httpx encodes the Authorization
header as ASCII. This commonly happens when users copy-paste keys from
PDFs, rich-text editors, or web pages with decorative fonts.
Three layers of defense:
1. **Save-time validation** (hermes_cli/config.py):
_check_non_ascii_credential() strips non-ASCII from credential values
when saving to .env, with a clear warning explaining the issue.
2. **Load-time sanitization** (hermes_cli/env_loader.py):
_sanitize_loaded_credentials() strips non-ASCII from credential env
vars (those ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY) after dotenv
loads them, so the rest of the codebase never sees non-ASCII keys.
3. **Runtime recovery** (run_agent.py):
The UnicodeEncodeError recovery block now also sanitizes self.api_key
and self._client_kwargs['api_key'], fixing the gap where message/tool
sanitization succeeded but the API key still caused httpx to fail on
the Authorization header.
Also: hermes_logging.py RotatingFileHandler now explicitly sets
encoding='utf-8' instead of relying on locale default (defensive
hardening for ASCII-locale systems).
* feat(skills): add fitness-nutrition skill to optional-skills
Cherry-picked from PR #9177 by @haileymarshall.
Adds a fitness and nutrition skill for gym-goers and health-conscious users:
- Exercise search via wger API (690+ exercises, free, no auth)
- Nutrition lookup via USDA FoodData Central (380K+ foods, DEMO_KEY fallback)
- Offline body composition calculators (BMI, TDEE, 1RM, macros, body fat %)
- Pure stdlib Python, no pip dependencies
Changes from original PR:
- Moved from skills/ to optional-skills/health/ (correct location)
- Fixed BMR formula in FORMULAS.md (removed confusing -5+10, now just +5)
- Fixed author attribution to match PR submitter
- Marked USDA_API_KEY as optional (DEMO_KEY works without signup)
Also adds optional env var support to the skill readiness checker:
- New 'optional: true' field in required_environment_variables entries
- Optional vars are preserved in metadata but don't block skill readiness
- Optional vars skip the CLI capture prompt flow
- Skills with only optional missing vars show as 'available' not 'setup_needed'
* fix: increase CLI response text padding to 4-space tab indent
Increases horizontal padding on all response display paths:
- Rich Panel responses (main, background, /btw): padding (1,2) -> (1,4)
- Streaming text: add 4-space indent prefix to each line
- Streaming TTS: add 4-space indent prefix to sentences
Gives response text proper breathing room with a tab-width indent.
Rich Panel word wrapping automatically adjusts for the wider padding.
Requested by AriesTheCoder.
* fix: word-wrap verbose tool call args and results to terminal width
Verbose mode (tool_progress: verbose) printed tool args and results as
single unwrapped lines that could be thousands of characters long.
Adds _wrap_verbose() helper that:
- Pretty-prints JSON args with indent=2 instead of one-line dumps
- Splits text on existing newlines (preserves JSON/structured output)
- Wraps lines exceeding terminal width with 5-char continuation indent
- Uses break_long_words=True for URLs and paths without spaces
Applied to all 4 verbose print sites:
- Concurrent tool call args
- Concurrent tool results
- Sequential tool call args
- Sequential tool results

GPT-5.4 supports none/low/medium/high/xhigh but not 'minimal'.
Users may configure 'minimal' via OpenRouter conventions, which would
cause a 400 on native OpenAI. Clamp to 'low' in the codex_responses
path before sending.
Plugins can now return {"action": "block", "message": "reason"} from
their pre_tool_call hook to prevent a tool from executing. The error
message is returned to the model as a tool result so it can adjust.
Covers both execution paths: handle_function_call (model_tools.py) and
agent-level tools (run_agent.py _invoke_tool + sequential/concurrent).
Blocked tools skip all side effects (counter resets, checkpoints,
callbacks, read-loop tracker).
Adds skip_pre_tool_call_hook flag to avoid double-firing the hook when
run_agent.py already checked and then calls handle_function_call.
Salvaged from PR #5385 (gianfrancopiana) and PR #4610 (oredsecurity).

softening of the requirement
- Add inline comment explaining the ACP exclusion rationale
Plugin context engines loaded via load_context_engine() were never

Previously, long-running streamed responses could be incorrectly treated
as idle by the gateway/cron inactivity timeout even while tokens were
actively arriving. The _touch_activity() call (which feeds
get_activity_summary() polled by the external timeout) was either called
only on the first chunk (chat completions) or not at all (Anthropic,
Codex, Codex fallback).
Add _touch_activity() on every chunk/event in all four streaming paths
so the inactivity monitor knows data is still flowing.
Fixes#8760
The v11→v12 migration converts custom_providers (list) into providers
(dict), then deletes the list. But all runtime resolvers read from
custom_providers — after migration, named custom endpoints silently stop
resolving and fallback chains fail with AuthError.
Add get_compatible_custom_providers() that reads from both config schemas
(legacy custom_providers list + v12+ providers dict), normalizes entries,
deduplicates, and returns a unified list. Update ALL consumers:
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py: _get_named_custom_provider() + key_env
- hermes_cli/auth_commands.py: credential pool provider names
- hermes_cli/main.py: model picker + _model_flow_named_custom()
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: key_env + custom_entry model fallback
- agent/credential_pool.py: _iter_custom_providers()
- cli.py + gateway/run.py: /model switch custom_providers passthrough
- run_agent.py + gateway/run.py: per-model context_length lookup
Also: use config.pop() instead of del for safer migration, fix stale
_config_version assertions in tests, add pool mock to codex test.

Closes#8776, salvaged from PR #8814
The existing ASCII codec handler only sanitized conversation messages,
leaving tool schemas, system prompts, ephemeral prompts, prefill messages,
and HTTP headers as unhandled sources of non-ASCII content. On systems
with LANG=C or non-UTF-8 locale, Unicode symbols in tool descriptions
(e.g. arrows, em-dashes from prompt_builder) and system prompt content
would cause UnicodeEncodeError that fell through to the error path.
Changes:
- Add _sanitize_structure_non_ascii() generic recursive walker for
nested dict/list payloads
- Add _sanitize_tools_non_ascii() thin wrapper for tool schemas
- Add _force_ascii_payload flag: once ASCII locale is detected, all
subsequent API calls get proactively sanitized (prevents recurring
failures from new tool results bringing fresh Unicode each turn)
- Extend the ASCII codec error handler to sanitize: prefill_messages,
tool schemas (self.tools), system prompt, ephemeral system prompt,
and default HTTP headers
- Update stale comment that acknowledged the gap
Cherry-picked from PR #8834 (credential pool changes dropped as
separate concern).
Remove the backward-compat code paths that read compression provider/model
settings from legacy config keys and env vars, which caused silent failures
when auto-detection resolved to incompatible backends.
What changed:
- Remove compression.summary_model, summary_provider, summary_base_url from
DEFAULT_CONFIG and cli.py defaults
- Remove backward-compat block in _resolve_task_provider_model() that read
from the legacy compression section
- Remove _get_auxiliary_provider() and _get_auxiliary_env_override() helper
functions (AUXILIARY_*/CONTEXT_* env var readers)
- Remove env var fallback chain for per-task overrides
- Update hermes config show to read from auxiliary.compression
- Add config migration (v16→17) that moves non-empty legacy values to
auxiliary.compression and strips the old keys
- Update example config and openclaw migration script
- Remove/update tests for deleted code paths
Compression model/provider is now configured exclusively via:
auxiliary.compression.provider / auxiliary.compression.model

Three targeted changes to close the gaps between retry layers that
caused users to experience 'No response from provider for 580s' and
'No activity for 15 minutes' despite having 5 layers of retry:
1. Remove non-streaming fallback from streaming path
Previously, when all 3 stream retries exhausted, the code fell back
to _interruptible_api_call() which had no stale detection and no
activity tracking — a black hole that could hang for up to 1800s.
Now errors propagate to the main retry loop which has richer recovery
(credential rotation, provider fallback, backoff).
For 'stream not supported' errors, sets _disable_streaming flag so
the main retry loop automatically switches to non-streaming on the
next attempt.
2. Add _touch_activity to recovery dead zones
The gateway inactivity monitor relies on _touch_activity() to know
the agent is alive, but activity was never touched during:
- Stale stream detection/kill cycles (180-300s gaps)
- Stream retry connection rebuilds
- Main retry backoff sleeps (up to 120s)
- Error recovery classification
Now all these paths touch activity every ~30s, keeping the gateway
informed during recovery cycles.
3. Add stale-call detector to non-streaming path
_interruptible_api_call() now has the same stale detection pattern
as the streaming path: kills hung connections after 300s (default,
configurable via HERMES_API_CALL_STALE_TIMEOUT), scaled for large
contexts (450s for 50K+ tokens, 600s for 100K+ tokens), disabled
for local providers.
Also touches activity every ~30s during the wait so the gateway
monitor stays informed.
Env vars:
- HERMES_API_CALL_STALE_TIMEOUT: non-streaming stale timeout (default 300s)
- HERMES_STREAM_STALE_TIMEOUT: unchanged (default 180s)
Before: worst case ~2+ hours of sequential retries with no feedback
After: worst case bounded by gateway inactivity timeout (default 1800s)
with continuous activity reporting
The post-loop grace call mechanism was broken: it injected a user
message and set _budget_grace_call=True, but could never re-enter the
while loop (already exited). Worse, the flag blocked the fallback
_handle_max_iterations from running, so final_response stayed None.
Users saw empty/no response when the agent hit max iterations.
Fix: remove the dead grace block and let _handle_max_iterations handle
it directly — it already injects a summary request and makes one extra
toolless API call.
When streaming fails after partial content delivery (e.g. OpenRouter
timeout kills connection mid-response), the stub response now carries
the accumulated streamed text instead of content=None.
Two fixes:
1. The partial-stream stub response includes recovered content from
_current_streamed_assistant_text — the text that was already
delivered to the user via stream callbacks before the connection
died.
2. The empty response recovery chain now checks for partial stream
content BEFORE falling back to _last_content_with_tools (prior
turn content) or wasting API calls on retries. This prevents:
- Showing wrong content from a prior turn
- Burning 3+ unnecessary retry API calls
- Falling through to '(empty)' when the user already saw content
The root cause: OpenRouter has a ~125s inactivity timeout. When
Anthropic's SSE stream goes silent during extended reasoning, the
proxy kills the connection. The model's text was already partially
streamed but the stub discarded it, triggering the empty recovery
chain which would show stale prior-turn content or waste retries.
OpenCode Zen was in _DOT_TO_HYPHEN_PROVIDERS, causing all dotted model
names (minimax-m2.5-free, gpt-5.4, glm-5.1) to be mangled. The fix:
Layer 1 (model_normalize.py): Remove opencode-zen from the blanket
dot-to-hyphen set. Add an explicit block that preserves dots for
non-Claude models while keeping Claude hyphenated (Zen's Claude
endpoint uses anthropic_messages mode which expects hyphens).
Layer 2 (run_agent.py _anthropic_preserve_dots): Add opencode-zen and
zai to the provider allowlist. Broaden URL check from opencode.ai/zen/go
to opencode.ai/zen/ to cover both Go and Zen endpoints. Add bigmodel.cn
for ZAI URL detection.
Also adds glm-5.1 to ZAI model lists in models.py and setup.py.

_check_compression_model_feasibility() called get_model_context_length()
without passing config_context_length, so custom endpoints that do not
support /models API queries always fell through to the 128K default,
ignoring auxiliary.compression.context_length in config.yaml.
Fix: read auxiliary.compression.context_length from config and pass it
as config_context_length (highest-priority hint) so the user-configured
value is always respected regardless of API availability.
Fixes#8499
Three fixes for the (empty) response bug affecting open reasoning models:
1. Allow retries after prefill exhaustion — models like mimo-v2-pro always
populate reasoning fields via OpenRouter, so the old 'not _has_structured'
guard on the retry path blocked retries for EVERY reasoning model after
the 2 prefill attempts. Now: 2 prefills + 3 retries = 6 total attempts
before (empty).
2. Reset prefill/retry counters on tool-call recovery — the counters
accumulated across the entire conversation, never resetting during
tool-calling turns. A model cycling empty→prefill→tools→empty burned
both prefill attempts and the third empty got zero recovery. Now
counters reset when prefill succeeds with tool calls.
3. Strip think blocks before _truly_empty check — inline <think> content
made the string non-empty, skipping both retry paths.
Reported by users on Telegram with xiaomi/mimo-v2-pro and qwen3.5 models.
Reproduced: qwen3.5-9b emits tool calls as XML in reasoning field instead
of proper function calls, causing content=None + tool_calls=None + reasoning
with embedded <tool_call> XML. Prefill recovery works but counter
accumulation caused permanent (empty) in long sessions.
Previously, all invalid API responses (choices=None) were diagnosed
as 'fast response often indicates rate limiting' regardless of actual
response time or error code. A 738s Cloudflare 524 timeout was labeled
as 'fast response' and 'possible rate limit'.
Now extracts the error code from response.error and classifies:
- 524: upstream provider timed out (Cloudflare)
- 504: upstream gateway timeout
- 429: rate limited by upstream provider
- 500/502: upstream server error
- 503/529: upstream provider overloaded
- Other codes: shown with code number
- No code + <10s: likely rate limited (timing heuristic)
- No code + >60s: likely upstream timeout
- No code + 10-60s: neutral response time
All downstream messages (retry status, final error, interrupt message)
now use the classified hint instead of generic rate-limit language.
Reported by community member Lumen Radley (MiMo provider timeouts).
Gemma 4 (26B/31B) uses <thought>...</thought> to wrap its reasoning
output. This tag was not included in the existing list of reasoning tag
variants stripped by _strip_think_blocks(), causing raw thinking blocks
to leak into the visible response.
Added a new re.sub() line for <thought> and extended the cleanup regex
to include 'thought' alongside the existing variants.
Fixes#6148
When running inside WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux), inject a hint into
the system prompt explaining that the Windows host filesystem is mounted
at /mnt/c/, /mnt/d/, etc. This lets the agent naturally translate Windows
paths (Desktop, Documents) to their /mnt/ equivalents without the user
needing to configure anything.
Uses the existing is_wsl() detection from hermes_constants (cached,
checks /proc/version for 'microsoft'). Adds build_environment_hints()
in prompt_builder.py — extensible for Termux, Docker, etc. later.
Closes the UX gap where WSL users had to manually explain path
translation to the agent every session.
Adds an optional focus topic to /compress: `/compress database schema`
guides the summariser to preserve information related to the focus topic
(60-70% of summary budget) while compressing everything else more aggressively.
Inspired by Claude Code's /compact <focus>.
Changes:
- context_compressor.py: focus_topic parameter on _generate_summary() and
compress(); appends FOCUS TOPIC guidance block to the LLM prompt
- run_agent.py: focus_topic parameter on _compress_context(), passed through
to the compressor
- cli.py: _manual_compress() extracts focus topic from command string,
preserves existing manual_compression_feedback integration (no regression)
- gateway/run.py: _handle_compress_command() extracts focus from event args
and passes through — full gateway parity
- commands.py: args_hint="[focus topic]" on /compress CommandDef
Salvaged from PR #7459 (CLI /compress focus only — /context command deferred).
15 new tests across CLI, compressor, and gateway.
* feat: component-separated logging with session context and filtering
Phase 1 — Gateway log isolation:
- gateway.log now only receives records from gateway.* loggers
(platform adapters, session management, slash commands, delivery)
- agent.log remains the catch-all (all components)
- errors.log remains WARNING+ catch-all
- Moved gateway.log handler creation from gateway/run.py into
hermes_logging.setup_logging(mode='gateway') with _ComponentFilter
Phase 2 — Session ID injection:
- Added set_session_context(session_id) / clear_session_context() API
using threading.local() for per-thread session tracking
- _SessionFilter enriches every log record with session_tag attribute
- Log format: '2026-04-11 10:23:45 INFO [session_id] logger.name: msg'
- Session context set at start of run_conversation() in run_agent.py
- Thread-isolated: gateway conversations on different threads don't leak
Phase 3 — Component filtering in hermes logs:
- Added --component flag: hermes logs --component gateway|agent|tools|cli|cron
- COMPONENT_PREFIXES maps component names to logger name prefixes
- Works with all existing filters (--level, --session, --since, -f)
- Logger name extraction handles both old and new log formats
Files changed:
- hermes_logging.py: _SessionFilter, _ComponentFilter, COMPONENT_PREFIXES,
set/clear_session_context(), gateway.log creation in setup_logging()
- gateway/run.py: removed redundant gateway.log handler (now in hermes_logging)
- run_agent.py: set_session_context() at start of run_conversation()
- hermes_cli/logs.py: --component filter, logger name extraction
- hermes_cli/main.py: --component argument on logs subparser
Addresses community request for component-separated, filterable logging.
Zero changes to existing logger names — __name__ already provides hierarchy.
* fix: use LogRecord factory instead of per-handler _SessionFilter
The _SessionFilter approach required attaching a filter to every handler
we create. Any handler created outside our _add_rotating_handler (like
the gateway stderr handler, or third-party handlers) would crash with
KeyError: 'session_tag' if it used our format string.
Replace with logging.setLogRecordFactory() which injects session_tag
into every LogRecord at creation time — process-global, zero per-handler
wiring needed. The factory is installed at import time (before
setup_logging) so session_tag is available from the moment hermes_logging
is imported.
- Idempotent: marker attribute prevents double-wrapping on module reload
- Chains with existing factory: won't break third-party record factories
- Removes _SessionFilter from _add_rotating_handler and setup_verbose_logging
- Adds tests: record factory injection, idempotency, arbitrary handler compat
The _get_budget_warning() method already returned None unconditionally —
the entire budget warning system was disabled. Remove all dead code:
- _BUDGET_WARNING_RE regex
- _strip_budget_warnings_from_history() function and its call site
- Both injection blocks (concurrent + sequential tool execution)
- _get_budget_warning() method
- 7 tests for the removed functions
The budget exhaustion grace call system (_budget_exhausted_injected,
_budget_grace_call) is a separate recovery mechanism and is preserved.
Normalize api_messages before each API call for consistent prefix
matching across turns:
1. Strip leading/trailing whitespace from system prompt parts
2. Strip leading/trailing whitespace from message content strings
3. Normalize tool-call arguments to compact sorted JSON
This enables KV cache reuse on local inference servers (llama.cpp,
vLLM, Ollama) and improves cache hit rates for cloud providers.
All normalization operates on the api_messages copy — the original
conversation history in messages is never mutated. Tool-call JSON
normalization creates new dicts via spread to avoid the shallow-copy
mutation bug in the original PR.
Salvaged from PR #7875 by @waxinz with mutation fix.
Switch estimate_tokens_rough(), estimate_messages_tokens_rough(), and
estimate_request_tokens_rough() from floor division (len // 4) to
ceiling division ((len + 3) // 4). Short texts (1-3 chars) previously
estimated as 0 tokens, causing the compressor and pre-flight checks to
systematically undercount when many short tool results are present.
Also replaced the inline duplicate formula in run_conversation()
(total_chars // 4) with a call to the shared
estimate_messages_tokens_rough() function.
Updated 4 tests that hardcoded floor-division expected values.
Related: issue #6217, PR #6629
Add display.interim_assistant_messages config (enabled by default) that
forwards completed assistant commentary between tool calls to the user
as separate chat messages. Models already emit useful status text like
'I'll inspect the repo first.' — this surfaces it on Telegram, Discord,
and other messaging platforms instead of swallowing it.
Independent from tool_progress and gateway streaming. Disabled for
webhooks. Uses GatewayStreamConsumer when available, falls back to
direct adapter send. Tracks response_previewed to prevent double-delivery
when interim message matches the final response.
Also fixes: cursor not stripped from fallback prefix in stream consumer
(affected continuation calculation on no-edit platforms like Signal).
Cherry-picked from PR #7885 by asheriif, default changed to enabled.
Fixes#5016
Three root causes of the 'agent stops mid-task' gateway bug:
1. Compression threshold floor (64K tokens minimum)
- The 50% threshold on a 100K-context model fired at 50K tokens,
causing premature compression that made models lose track of
multi-step plans. Now threshold_tokens = max(50% * context, 64K).
- Models with <64K context are rejected at startup with a clear error.
2. Budget warning removal — grace call instead
- Removed the 70%/90% iteration budget warnings entirely. These
injected '[BUDGET WARNING: Provide your final response NOW]' into
tool results, causing models to abandon complex tasks prematurely.
- Now: no warnings during normal execution. When the budget is
actually exhausted (90/90), inject a user message asking the model
to summarise, allow one grace API call, and only then fall back
to _handle_max_iterations.
3. Activity touches during long terminal execution
- _wait_for_process polls every 0.2s but never reported activity.
The gateway's inactivity timeout (default 1800s) would fire during
long-running commands that appeared 'idle.'
- Now: thread-local activity callback fires every 10s during the
poll loop, keeping the gateway's activity tracker alive.
- Agent wires _touch_activity into the callback before each tool call.
Also: docs update noting 64K minimum context requirement.
Closes#7915 (root cause was agent-loop termination, not Weixin delivery limits).
Replace the verbose_logging-gated logging.exception() with an
unconditional logger.debug(exc_info=True). The full traceback now
always lands in agent.log when debug logging is enabled, without
requiring the verbose_logging flag or spamming the console.
Previously, production errors in the 700-line response processing
block (normalization, tool dispatch, final response handling) were
logged as one-line messages with the traceback hidden behind
verbose_logging — making post-mortem debugging difficult.
All retry counters (_invalid_tool_retries, _invalid_json_retries,
_empty_content_retries, _incomplete_scratchpad_retries,
_codex_incomplete_retries) are initialized to 0 at the top of
run_conversation() (lines 7566-7570). The hasattr guards added before
the reset block existed are now dead code — the attributes always exist.
Removed 7 redundant hasattr checks (5 original targets + 2 bonus for
_codex_incomplete_retries found during cleanup).
When _try_activate_fallback() switches to a new provider, retry_count was
reset to 0 but compression_attempts and primary_recovery_attempted were
not. This meant a fallback provider that hit context overflow would only
get the leftover compression budget from the failed primary provider,
and transport recovery was blocked because the flag was still True from
the old provider's attempt.
Reset both counters at all 5 fallback activation sites inside the retry
loop so each fallback provider gets a fresh compression budget (3 attempts)
and its own transport recovery opportunity.
When replaying codex_reasoning_items from previous turns,
duplicate item IDs (rs_*) could appear in the input array,
causing HTTP 400 "Duplicate item found" errors from the
OpenAI Responses API.
Add seen_item_ids tracking in both _chat_messages_to_responses_input()
and _preflight_codex_input_items() to skip already-added reasoning
items by their ID.

The interrupt mechanism in tools/interrupt.py used a process-global
threading.Event. In the gateway, multiple agents run concurrently in
the same process via run_in_executor. When any agent was interrupted
(user sends a follow-up message), the global flag killed ALL agents'
running tools — terminal commands, browser ops, web requests — across
all sessions.
Changes:
- tools/interrupt.py: Replace single threading.Event with a set of
interrupted thread IDs. set_interrupt() targets a specific thread;
is_interrupted() checks the current thread. Includes a backward-
compatible _ThreadAwareEventProxy for legacy _interrupt_event usage.
- run_agent.py: Store execution thread ID at start of run_conversation().
interrupt() and clear_interrupt() pass it to set_interrupt() so only
this agent's thread is affected.
- tools/code_execution_tool.py: Use is_interrupted() instead of
directly checking _interrupt_event.is_set().
- tools/process_registry.py: Same — use is_interrupted().
- tests: Update interrupt tests for per-thread semantics. Add new
TestPerThreadInterruptIsolation with two tests verifying cross-thread
isolation.
Models that do not use <think> tags (e.g. GLM-4.7 on NVIDIA Build,
minimax) may return content=None or empty string when truncated. The
previous _thinking_exhausted check treated any None/empty content as
thinking-budget exhaustion, causing these models to always show the
'Thinking Budget Exhausted' error instead of attempting continuation.
Fix: gate the exhaustion check on _has_think_tags — only trigger the
exhaustion path when the model actually produced reasoning blocks
(<think>, <thinking>, <reasoning>, <REASONING_SCRATCHPAD>). Models
without think tags now fall through to the normal continuation retry
logic (up to 3 attempts).
Fixes#7729
When API routers rewrite finish_reason from "length" to "tool_calls",
truncated JSON arguments bypassed the length handler and wasted 3
retry attempts in the generic JSON validation loop. Now detects
truncation patterns in tool call arguments regardless of finish_reason.
Fixes#7680

Two-phase design so the warning fires before the user's first message
on every platform:
Phase 1 (__init__):
_check_compression_model_feasibility() runs during agent construction.
Resolves the auxiliary compression model (same chain as call_llm with
task='compression'), compares its context length to the main model's
compression threshold. If too small, emits via _emit_status() (prints
for CLI) and stores the warning in _compression_warning.
Phase 2 (run_conversation, first call):
_replay_compression_warning() re-sends the stored warning through
status_callback — which the gateway wires AFTER construction. The
warning is then cleared so it only fires once.
This ensures:
- CLI users see the warning immediately at startup (right after the
context limit line)
- Gateway users (Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix,
Mattermost, Home Assistant, DingTalk, etc.) receive it via
status_callback('lifecycle', ...) on their first message
- logger.warning() always hits agent.log regardless of platform
Also warns when no auxiliary LLM provider is configured at all.
Entire check wrapped in try/except — never blocks startup.
11 tests covering: core warning logic, boundary conditions, exception
safety, two-phase store+replay, gateway callback wiring, and
single-delivery guarantee.
Matrix gateway: fix sync loop never dispatching events (#5819)
- _sync_loop() called client.sync() but never called handle_sync()

subsequent incremental syncs (was doing full initial sync every time)

Feishu docs: add interactive card configuration for approvals (#6893)
- Error 200340 is a Feishu Developer Console configuration issue,
not a code bug — users need to enable Interactive Card capability

Copilot provider drift: detect GPT-5.x Responses API requirement (#3388)
- GPT-5.x models are rejected on /v1/chat/completions by both OpenAI
and OpenRouter (unsupported_api_for_model error)
- Added _model_requires_responses_api() to detect models needing
Responses API regardless of provider
- Applied in __init__ (covers OpenRouter primary users) and in
_try_activate_fallback() (covers Copilot->OpenRouter drift)
- Fixed stale comment claiming gateway creates fresh agents per message
(it caches them via _agent_cache since the caching was added)
- 7 comments, reported on Copilot+Telegram gateway
Based on PR #7285 by @kshitijk4poor.
Two bugs affecting Qwen OAuth users:
1. Wrong context window — qwen3-coder-plus showed 128K instead of 1M.
Added specific entries before the generic qwen catch-all:
- qwen3-coder-plus: 1,000,000 (corrected from PR's 1,048,576 per
official Alibaba Cloud docs and OpenRouter)
- qwen3-coder: 262,144
2. Random stopping — max_tokens was suppressed for Qwen Portal, so the
server applied its own low default. Reasoning models exhaust that on
thinking tokens. Now: honor explicit max_tokens, default to 65536
when unset.

The pre_llm_call plugin hook receives session_id, user_message,
conversation_history, is_first_turn, model, and platform — but not
the sender's user_id. This means plugins cannot perform per-user
access control (e.g. restricting knowledge base recall to authorized
users).
The gateway already passes source.user_id as user_id to AIAgent,
which stores it in self._user_id. This change forwards it as
sender_id in the pre_llm_call kwargs so plugins can use it for
ACL decisions.
For CLI sessions where no user_id exists, sender_id defaults to
empty string. Plugins can treat empty sender_id as a trusted local
call (the owner is at the terminal) or deny it depending on their
ACL policy.
_is_oauth_token() returned True for any key not starting with 'sk-ant-api',
which means MiniMax and Alibaba API keys were falsely treated as Anthropic
OAuth tokens. This triggered the Claude Code compatibility path:
- All tool names prefixed with mcp_ (e.g. mcp_terminal, mcp_web_search)
- System prompt injected with 'You are Claude Code' identity
- 'Hermes Agent' replaced with 'Claude Code' throughout
Fix: Make _is_oauth_token() positively identify Anthropic OAuth tokens by
their key format instead of using a broad catch-all:
- sk-ant-* (but not sk-ant-api-*) -> setup tokens, managed keys
- eyJ* -> JWTs from Anthropic OAuth flow
- Everything else -> False (MiniMax, Alibaba, etc.)

- Remove auto-activation: when context.engine is 'compressor' (default),
plugin-registered engines are NOT used. Users must explicitly set
context.engine to a plugin name to activate it.
- Add curses_radiolist() to curses_ui.py: single-select radio picker
with keyboard nav + text fallback, matching curses_checklist pattern.
- Rewrite cmd_toggle() as composite plugins UI:
Top section: general plugins with checkboxes (existing behavior)
Bottom section: provider plugin categories (Memory Provider, Context Engine)
with current selection shown inline. ENTER/SPACE on a category opens
a radiolist sub-screen for single-select configuration.
- Add provider discovery helpers: _discover_memory_providers(),
_discover_context_engines(), config read/save for memory.provider
and context.engine.
- Add tests: radiolist non-TTY fallback, provider config save/load,
discovery error handling, auto-activation removal verification.
Follow-up fixes for the context engine plugin slot (PR #5700):
- Enhance ContextEngine ABC: add threshold_percent, protect_first_n,
protect_last_n as class attributes; complete update_model() default
with threshold recalculation; clarify on_session_end() lifecycle docs
- Add ContextCompressor.update_model() override for model/provider/
base_url/api_key updates
- Replace all direct compressor internal access in run_agent.py with
ABC interface: switch_model(), fallback restore, context probing
all use update_model() now; _context_probed guarded with getattr/
hasattr for plugin engine compatibility
- Create plugins/context_engine/ directory with discovery module
(mirrors plugins/memory/ pattern) — discover_context_engines(),
load_context_engine()
- Add context.engine config key to DEFAULT_CONFIG (default: compressor)
- Config-driven engine selection in run_agent.__init__: checks config,
then plugins/context_engine/<name>/, then general plugin system,
falls back to built-in ContextCompressor
- Wire on_session_end() in shutdown_memory_provider() at real session
boundaries (CLI exit, /reset, gateway expiry)
- PluginContext.register_context_engine() lets plugins replace the
built-in ContextCompressor with a custom ContextEngine implementation
- PluginManager stores the registered engine; only one allowed
- run_agent.py checks for a plugin engine at init before falling back
to the default ContextCompressor
- reset_session_state() now calls engine.on_session_reset() instead of
poking internal attributes directly
- ContextCompressor.on_session_reset() handles its own internals
(_context_probed, _previous_summary, etc.)
- 19 new tests covering ABC contract, defaults, plugin slot registration,
rejection of duplicates/non-engines, and compressor reset behavior
- All 34 existing compressor tests pass unchanged
When models return empty responses (no content, no tool calls, no
reasoning), Hermes previously retried 3 times silently then fell through
to '(empty)' — without ever trying the fallback provider chain. Users on
GLM-4.5-Air and similar models experienced what appeared to be a
complete hang, especially in gateway (Telegram/Discord) contexts where
the silent retries produced zero feedback.
Changes:
- After exhausting 3 empty retries, attempt _try_activate_fallback()
before giving up with '(empty)'. If fallback succeeds, reset retry
counter and continue the conversation loop with the new provider.
- Replace all _vprint() calls in recovery paths with _emit_status(),
which surfaces messages through both CLI (_vprint with force=True)
and gateway (status_callback -> adapter.send). Users now see:
* '⚠️ Empty response from model — retrying (N/3)' during retries
* '⚠️ Model returning empty responses — switching to fallback...'
* '↻ Switched to fallback: <model> (<provider>)' on success
* '❌ Model returned no content after all retries [and fallback]'
- Add logger.warning() throughout empty response paths for log file
visibility (model name, provider, retry counts).
- Upgrade _last_content_with_tools fallback from logger.debug to
logger.info + _emit_status so recovery is visible.
- Upgrade thinking-only prefill continuation to use _emit_status.
Tests:
- test_empty_response_triggers_fallback_provider: verifies fallback
activation after 3 empty retries produces content from fallback model
- test_empty_response_fallback_also_empty_returns_empty: verifies
graceful degradation when fallback also returns empty
- test_empty_response_emits_status_for_gateway: verifies _emit_status
is called during retries so gateway users see feedback
Addresses #7180.
Add a close() method to AIAgent that acts as a single entry point for
releasing all resources held by an agent instance. This prevents zombie
process accumulation on long-running gateway deployments by explicitly
cleaning up:
- Background processes tracked in ProcessRegistry
- Terminal sandbox environments
- Browser daemon sessions
- Active child agents (subagent delegation)
- OpenAI/httpx client connections
Each cleanup step is independently guarded so a failure in one does not
prevent the rest. The method is idempotent and safe to call multiple
times.
Also simplifies the background review cleanup to use close() instead
of manually closing the OpenAI client.
Ref: #7131
When _build_api_kwargs() throws an exception, the except handler in
the retry loop referenced api_kwargs before it was assigned. This
caused an UnboundLocalError that masked the real error, making
debugging impossible for the user.
Two _dump_api_request_debug() calls in the except block (non-retryable
client error path and max-retries-exhausted path) both accessed
api_kwargs without checking if it was assigned.
Fix: initialize api_kwargs = None before the retry loop and guard both
dump calls. Now the real error surfaces instead of the masking
UnboundLocalError.

`delegate_task` silently truncated batch tasks to 3 — the model sends
5 tasks, gets results for 3, never told 2 were dropped. Now returns a
clear tool_error explaining the limit and how to fix it.
The limit is configurable via:
- delegation.max_concurrent_children in config.yaml (priority 1)
- DELEGATION_MAX_CONCURRENT_CHILDREN env var (priority 2)
- default: 3
Uses the same _load_config() path as the rest of delegate_task for
consistent config priority. Clamps to min 1, warns on non-integer
config values.
Also removes the hardcoded maxItems: 3 from the JSON schema — the
schema was blocking the model from even attempting >3 tasks before
the runtime check could fire. The runtime check gives a much more
actionable error message.
Backwards compatible: default remains 3, existing configs unchanged.
When delegation.base_url routes subagents to a different endpoint, the
correct URL was passed through _resolve_delegation_credentials() and
_build_child_agent() into AIAgent.__init__(), but self.base_url could
fall out of sync with client_kwargs["base_url"] — the value the OpenAI
client actually uses.
This caused billing_base_url in session records to show the parent's
endpoint while actual API calls went to the correct delegation target.
Keep self.base_url in sync with client_kwargs after the credential
resolution block, matching the existing pattern for self.api_key.
Fixes#6825
Broaden the UnicodeEncodeError recovery to handle systems with ASCII-only
locale (LANG=C, Chromebooks) where ANY non-ASCII character causes encoding
failure, not just lone surrogates.
Changes:
- Add _strip_non_ascii() and _sanitize_messages_non_ascii() helpers that
strip all non-ASCII characters from message content, name, and tool_calls
- Update the UnicodeEncodeError handler to detect ASCII codec errors and
fall back to non-ASCII sanitization after surrogate check fails
- Sanitize tool_calls arguments and name fields (not just content)
- Fix bare .encode() in cli.py suspend handler to use explicit utf-8
- Add comprehensive test suite (17 tests)
When switching models at runtime, the config_context_length override
was not being passed to the new context compressor instance. This
meant the user-specified context length from config.yaml was lost
after a model switch.
- Store _config_context_length on AIAgent instance during __init__
- Pass _config_context_length when creating new ContextCompressor in switch_model
- Add test to verify config_context_length is preserved across model switches
Fixes: quando estamos alterando o modelo não está alterando o tamanho do contexto
Automated dead code audit using vulture + coverage.py + ast-grep intersection,
confirmed by Opus deep verification pass. Every symbol verified to have zero
production callers (test imports excluded from reachability analysis).
Removes ~1,534 lines of dead production code across 46 files and ~1,382 lines
of stale test code. 3 entire files deleted (agent/builtin_memory_provider.py,
hermes_cli/checklist.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_setup_model_selection.py).

The _call_anthropic() streaming path never updated last_chunk_time during
the event loop — only once at stream start. The stale stream detector in
the outer poll loop uses this timer, so any Anthropic stream longer than
180s was killed even when events were actively arriving. This self-inflicted
a RemoteProtocolError that users saw as:
'⚠️ Connection to provider dropped (RemoteProtocolError). Reconnecting…'
The _call_chat_completions() path already updates last_chunk_time on every
chunk (line 4475). This brings _call_anthropic() to parity.
Also adds deltas_were_sent tracking to the Anthropic text_delta path so
the retry loop knows not to retry after partial delivery (prevents
duplicated output on connection drops mid-stream).

The hardcoded User-Agent 'KimiCLI/1.3' is outdated — Kimi CLI is now at
v1.30.0. The stale version string causes intermittent 403 errors from
Kimi's coding endpoint ('only available for Coding Agents').
Update all 8 occurrences across run_agent.py, auxiliary_client.py, and
doctor.py to 'KimiCLI/1.30.0' to match the current official Kimi CLI.
Extends the /fast command to support Anthropic's Fast Mode beta in addition
to OpenAI Priority Processing. When enabled on Claude Opus 4.6, adds
speed:"fast" and the fast-mode-2026-02-01 beta header to API requests for
~2.5x faster output token throughput.
Changes:
- hermes_cli/models.py: Add _ANTHROPIC_FAST_MODE_MODELS registry,
model_supports_fast_mode() now recognizes Claude Opus 4.6,
resolve_fast_mode_overrides() returns {speed: fast} for Anthropic
vs {service_tier: priority} for OpenAI
- agent/anthropic_adapter.py: Add _FAST_MODE_BETA constant,
build_anthropic_kwargs() accepts fast_mode=True which injects
speed:fast + beta header via extra_headers (skipped for third-party
Anthropic-compatible endpoints like MiniMax)
- run_agent.py: Pass fast_mode to build_anthropic_kwargs in the
anthropic_messages path of _build_api_kwargs()
- cli.py: Update _handle_fast_command with provider-aware messaging
(shows 'Anthropic Fast Mode' vs 'Priority Processing')
- hermes_cli/commands.py: Update /fast description to mention both
providers
- tests: 13 new tests covering Anthropic model detection, override
resolution, CLI availability, routing, adapter kwargs, and
third-party endpoint safety
After mid-loop compression (triggered by 413, context_overflow, or Anthropic
long-context tier errors), _compress_context() creates a new session in SQLite
and resets _last_flushed_db_idx=0. However, conversation_history was not cleared,
so _flush_messages_to_session_db() computed:
flush_from = max(len(conversation_history=200), _last_flushed_db_idx=0) = 200
messages[200:] → empty (compressed messages < 200)
This resulted in zero messages being written to the new session's SQLite store.
On resume, the user would see 'Session found but has no messages.'
The preflight compression path (line 7311) already had the fix:
conversation_history = None
This commit adds the same clearing to the three mid-loop compression sites:
- Anthropic long-context tier overflow
- HTTP 413 payload too large
- Generic context_overflow error
Reported by Aaryan (Nous community).
Raise the default httpx stream read timeout from 60s to 120s for all
providers. Additionally, auto-detect local LLM endpoints (Ollama,
llama.cpp, vLLM) and raise the read timeout to HERMES_API_TIMEOUT
(1800s) since local models can take minutes for prefill on large
contexts before producing the first token.
The stale stream timeout already had this local auto-detection pattern;
the httpx read timeout was missing it — causing a hard 60s wall that
users couldn't find (HERMES_STREAM_READ_TIMEOUT was undocumented).
Changes:
- Default HERMES_STREAM_READ_TIMEOUT: 60s -> 120s
- Auto-detect local endpoints -> raise to 1800s (user override respected)
- Document HERMES_STREAM_READ_TIMEOUT and HERMES_STREAM_STALE_TIMEOUT
- Add 10 parametrized tests

When the model mentions <think> as literal text in its response (e.g.
"(/think not producing <think> tags)"), the streaming display treated it
as a reasoning block opener and suppressed everything after it. The
response box would close with truncated content and no error — the API
response was complete but the display ate it.
Root cause: _stream_delta() matched <think> anywhere in the text stream
regardless of position. Real reasoning blocks always start at the
beginning of a line; mentions in prose appear mid-sentence.
Fix: track line position across streaming deltas with a
_stream_last_was_newline flag. Only enter reasoning suppression when
the tag appears at a block boundary (start of stream, after a newline,
or after only whitespace on the current line). Add a _flush_stream()
safety net that recovers buffered content if no closing tag is found
by end-of-stream.
Also fixes three related issues discovered during investigation:
- anthropic_adapter: _get_anthropic_max_output() now normalizes dots to
hyphens so 'claude-opus-4.6' matches the 'claude-opus-4-6' table key
(was returning 32K instead of 128K)
- run_agent: send explicit max_tokens for Claude models on Nous Portal,
same as OpenRouter — both proxy to Anthropic's API which requires it.
Without it the backend defaults to a low limit that truncates responses.
- run_agent: reset truncated_tool_call_retries after successful tool
execution so a single truncation doesn't poison the entire conversation.
Previously /fast only supported gpt-5.4 and forced a provider switch to
openai-codex. Now supports all 13 models from OpenAI's Priority Processing
pricing table (gpt-5.4, gpt-5.4-mini, gpt-5.2, gpt-5.1, gpt-5, gpt-5-mini,
gpt-4.1, gpt-4.1-mini, gpt-4.1-nano, gpt-4o, gpt-4o-mini, o3, o4-mini).
Key changes:
- Replaced _FAST_MODE_BACKEND_CONFIG with _PRIORITY_PROCESSING_MODELS frozenset
- Removed provider-forcing logic — service_tier is now injected into whatever
API path the user is already on (Codex Responses, Chat Completions, or
OpenRouter passthrough)
- Added request_overrides support to chat_completions path in run_agent.py
- Updated messaging from 'Codex inference tier' to 'Priority Processing'
- Expanded test coverage for all supported models
Add /fast slash command to toggle OpenAI Codex service_tier between
normal and priority ('fast') inference. Only exposed for models
registered in _FAST_MODE_BACKEND_CONFIG (currently gpt-5.4).
- Registry-based backend config for extensibility
- Dynamic command visibility (hidden from help/autocomplete for
non-supported models) via command_filter on SlashCommandCompleter
- service_tier flows through request_overrides from route resolution
- Omit max_output_tokens for Codex backend (rejects it)
- Persists to config.yaml under agent.service_tier
Salvage cleanup: removed simple_term_menu/input() menu (banned),
bare /fast now shows status like /reasoning. Removed redundant
override resolution in _build_api_kwargs — single source of truth
via request_overrides from route.

When OpenRouter returns 'No endpoints found that support tool use'
(HTTP 404), display a hint explaining that provider routing restrictions
may be filtering out tool-capable providers. Links the user directly
to the model's OpenRouter page to check which providers support tools.
The hint fires in the error display block that runs regardless of whether
fallback succeeds — so the user always understands WHY the model failed,
not just that it fell back.
Reported via Discord: GLM-5.1 on OpenRouter with US-based provider
restrictions eliminated all 4 tool-supporting endpoints (DeepInfra,
Z.AI, Friendli, Venice), leaving only 7 non-tool providers.
When a streaming response is cut mid-tool-call (connection drop, timeout),
the accumulated function.arguments is invalid JSON. The mock response
builder defaulted finish_reason to 'stop', so the agent loop treated it
as a valid completed turn and tried to execute tools with broken args.
Fix: validate tool call arguments with json.loads() during mock response
reconstruction. If any are invalid JSON, override finish_reason to
'length'. In the main loop's length handler, if tool calls are present,
refuse to execute and return partial=True with a clear error instead of
silently failing or wasting retries.
Also fixes _thinking_exhausted to not short-circuit when tool calls are
present — truncated tool calls are not thinking exhaustion.
