7ce374d3b9 Improve gateway error handling for 429 usage limits and 500 context overflow
- Distinguish plan usage limits (429 with usage_limit_reached) from transient rate limits
- Show approximate reset time in hours for plan limits
- Treat HTTP 500 with large sessions as context overflow (same as 400)
- Move history length check earlier for reuse across status codes

1bee519a6f fix(discord): remove redundant /ask slash command
/ask was just 'send a message to the bot' via the slash command menu —
completely redundant since Discord bots already listen to channel messages.
Removed as part of salvaging PR #1827.

fix: handle message length overflow in streaming mode (#1783)
Stream consumer now splits messages that exceed the platform's
MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH. When accumulated text grows past the safe limit,
the current message is finalized and a new message is started for the
overflow — same as how normal sends chunk long responses.

Split point prefers line boundaries (rfind newline) for clean breaks.
Works for all platforms (Telegram 4096, Discord 2000, etc.) by reading
the adapter's MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH at runtime.

Also added a safety net in the Telegram adapter: if edit_message_text
still hits MESSAGE_TOO_LONG (e.g. markdown formatting expansion), it
truncates and returns success so the stream consumer doesn't die.

fix: Telegram streaming — config bridge, not-modified, flood control (#1782)
* fix: NameError in OpenCode provider setup (prompt_text -> prompt)

The OpenCode Zen and OpenCode Go setup sections used prompt_text()
which is undefined. All other providers correctly use the local
prompt() function defined in setup.py. Fixes crash during
'hermes setup' when selecting either OpenCode provider.

* fix: Telegram streaming — config bridge, not-modified, flood control

Three fixes for gateway streaming:

1. Bridge streaming config from config.yaml into gateway runtime.
   load_gateway_config() now reads the 'streaming' key from config.yaml
   (same pattern as session_reset, stt, etc.), matching the docs.
   Previously only gateway.json was read.

2. Handle 'Message is not modified' in Telegram edit_message().
   This Telegram API error fires when editing with identical content —
   a no-op, not a real failure. Previously it returned success=False
   which made the stream consumer disable streaming entirely.

3. Handle RetryAfter / flood control in Telegram edit_message().
   Fast providers can hit Telegram rate limits during streaming.
   Now waits the requested retry_after duration and retries once,
   instead of treating it as a fatal edit failure.

Also fixed double-edit on stream finish: the consumer now tracks
last-sent text and skips redundant edits, preventing the not-modified
error at the source.

* refactor: make config.yaml the primary gateway config source

Eliminates the per-key bridge pattern in load_gateway_config().
Previously gateway.json was the primary source and each config.yaml
key needed an individual bridge — easy to forget (streaming was
missing, causing garl4546's bug).

Now config.yaml is read first and its keys are mapped directly into
the GatewayConfig.from_dict() schema. gateway.json is kept as a
legacy fallback layer (loaded first, then overwritten by config.yaml
keys). If gateway.json exists, a log message suggests migrating.

Also:
- Removed dead save_gateway_config() (never called anywhere)
- Updated CLI help text and send_message error to reference
  config.yaml instead of gateway.json

feat: OpenAI-compatible API server + WhatsApp configurable reply prefix (#1756)
* feat: OpenAI-compatible API server platform adapter

Salvaged from PR #956, updated for current main.

Adds an HTTP API server as a gateway platform adapter that exposes
hermes-agent via the OpenAI Chat Completions and Responses APIs.
Any OpenAI-compatible frontend (Open WebUI, LobeChat, LibreChat,
AnythingLLM, NextChat, ChatBox, etc.) can connect by pointing at
http://localhost:8642/v1.

Endpoints:
- POST /v1/chat/completions  — stateless Chat Completions API
- POST /v1/responses         — stateful Responses API with chaining
- GET  /v1/responses/{id}    — retrieve stored response
- DELETE /v1/responses/{id}  — delete stored response
- GET  /v1/models            — list hermes-agent as available model
- GET  /health               — health check

Features:
- Real SSE streaming via stream_delta_callback (uses main's streaming)
- In-memory LRU response store for Responses API conversation chaining
- Named conversations via 'conversation' parameter
- Bearer token auth (optional, via API_SERVER_KEY)
- CORS support for browser-based frontends
- System prompt layering (frontend system messages on top of core)
- Real token usage tracking in responses

Integration points:
- Platform.API_SERVER in gateway/config.py
- _create_adapter() branch in gateway/run.py
- API_SERVER_* env vars in hermes_cli/config.py
- Env var overrides in gateway/config.py _apply_env_overrides()

Changes vs original PR #956:
- Removed streaming infrastructure (already on main via stream_consumer.py)
- Removed Telegram reply_to_mode (separate feature, not included)
- Updated _resolve_model() -> _resolve_gateway_model()
- Updated stream_callback -> stream_delta_callback
- Updated connect()/disconnect() to use _mark_connected()/_mark_disconnected()
- Adapted to current Platform enum (includes MATTERMOST, MATRIX, DINGTALK)

Tests: 72 new tests, all passing
Docs: API server guide, Open WebUI integration guide, env var reference

* feat(whatsapp): make reply prefix configurable via config.yaml

Reworked from PR #1764 (ifrederico) to use config.yaml instead of .env.

The WhatsApp bridge prepends a header to every outgoing message.
This was hardcoded to '⚕ *Hermes Agent*'. Users can now customize
or disable it via config.yaml:

  whatsapp:
    reply_prefix: ''                     # disable header
    reply_prefix: '🤖 *My Bot*\n───\n'  # custom prefix

How it works:
- load_gateway_config() reads whatsapp.reply_prefix from config.yaml
  and stores it in PlatformConfig.extra['reply_prefix']
- WhatsAppAdapter reads it from config.extra at init
- When spawning bridge.js, the adapter passes it as
  WHATSAPP_REPLY_PREFIX in the subprocess environment
- bridge.js handles undefined (default), empty (no header),
  or custom values with \\n escape support
- Self-chat echo suppression uses the configured prefix

Also fixes _config_version: was 9 but ENV_VARS_BY_VERSION had a
key 10 (TAVILY_API_KEY), so existing users at v9 would never be
prompted for Tavily. Bumped to 10 to close the gap. Added a
regression test to prevent this from happening again.

Credit: ifrederico (PR #1764) for the bridge.js implementation
and the config version gap discovery.

fix(session): skip corrupt lines in load_transcript instead of crashing (#1744)
Wrap json.loads() in load_transcript() with try/except JSONDecodeError
so that partial JSONL lines (from mid-write crashes like OOM/SIGKILL)

feat(compression): add summary_base_url + move compression config to YAML-only
- Add summary_base_url config option to compression block for custom

- Remove compression env var bridges from cli.py and gateway/run.py
  (CONTEXT_COMPRESSION_* env vars no longer set from config)

  config.yaml instead of env vars
- Fix backwards-compat block in _resolve_task_provider_model to also

6832d60bc0 fix(gateway): SMS persistent HTTP session + Matrix MIME media types
1. sms.py: Replace per-send aiohttp.ClientSession with a persistent
   session created in connect() and closed in disconnect(). Each
   outbound SMS no longer pays the TCP+TLS handshake cost. Falls back
   to a temporary session if the persistent one isn't available.

2. matrix.py: Use proper MIME types (image/png, audio/ogg, video/mp4)
   instead of bare category words (image, audio, video). The gateway's
   media processing checks startswith('image/') and startswith('audio/')
   so bare words caused Matrix images to skip vision enrichment and
   Matrix audio to skip transcription. Now extracts the actual MIME
   type from the nio event's content info when available.

e5fc916814 feat: auto-generate session titles after first exchange
After the first user→assistant exchange, Hermes now generates a short
descriptive session title via the auxiliary LLM (compression task config).
Title generation runs in a background thread so it never delays the
user-facing response.

Key behaviors:
- Fires only on the first 1-2 exchanges (checks user message count)
- Skips if a title already exists (user-set titles are never overwritten)
- Uses call_llm with compression task config (cheapest/fastest model)
- Truncates long messages to keep the title generation request small
- Cleans up LLM output: strips quotes, 'Title:' prefixes, enforces 80 char max
- Works in both CLI and gateway (Telegram/Discord/etc.)

Also updates /title (no args) to show the session ID alongside the title
in both CLI and gateway.

This only returns False when BOTH are missing. If only one is set

which is not in scope — yaml is imported as '_yaml' at module level

fix: thread safety for concurrent subagent delegation (#1672)
* fix: thread safety for concurrent subagent delegation

Four thread-safety fixes that prevent crashes and data races when
running multiple subagents concurrently via delegate_task:

1. Remove redirect_stdout/stderr from delegate_tool — mutating global
   sys.stdout races with the spinner thread when multiple children start
   concurrently, causing segfaults. Children already run with
   quiet_mode=True so the redirect was redundant.

2. Split _run_single_child into _build_child_agent (main thread) +
   _run_single_child (worker thread). AIAgent construction creates
   httpx/SSL clients which are not thread-safe to initialize
   concurrently.

3. Add threading.Lock to SessionDB — subagents share the parent's
   SessionDB and call create_session/append_message from worker threads
   with no synchronization.

4. Add _active_children_lock to AIAgent — interrupt() iterates
   _active_children while worker threads append/remove children.

5. Add _client_cache_lock to auxiliary_client — multiple subagent
   threads may resolve clients concurrently via call_llm().

* feat: Honcho base_url override via config.yaml + quick command alias type

Two features salvaged from PR #1576:

1. Honcho base_url override: allows pointing Hermes at a remote
   self-hosted Honcho deployment via config.yaml:

     honcho:
       base_url: "http://192.168.x.x:8000"

   When set, this overrides the Honcho SDK's environment mapping
   (production/local), enabling LAN/VPN Honcho deployments without
   requiring the server to live on localhost. Uses config.yaml instead
   of env var (HONCHO_URL) per project convention.

2. Quick command alias type: adds a new 'alias' quick command type
   that rewrites to another slash command before normal dispatch:

     quick_commands:
       sc:
         type: alias
         target: /context

   Supports both CLI and gateway. Arguments are forwarded to the
   target command.

fix(telegram): aggregate split text messages before dispatching (#1674)
When a user sends a long message, Telegram clients split it into
multiple updates that arrive within milliseconds of each other.
Previously each chunk was dispatched independently — the first would
start the agent, and subsequent chunks would interrupt or queue as
separate turns, causing the agent to only see part of the message.

Add text message batching to TelegramAdapter following the same pattern
as the existing photo burst batching:

- _enqueue_text_event() buffers text by session key, concatenating
  chunks that arrive in rapid succession
- _flush_text_batch() dispatches the combined message after a 0.6s
  quiet period (configurable via HERMES_TELEGRAM_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS)
- Timer resets on each new chunk, so all parts of a split arrive
  before the batch is dispatched

fix: email send_typing metadata + ☤ Hermes staff symbol (#1431, #1420)
* fix: prevent infinite 400 failure loop on context overflow (#1630)

When a gateway session exceeds the model's context window, Anthropic may
return a generic 400 invalid_request_error with just 'Error' as the
message.  This bypassed the phrase-based context-length detection,
causing the agent to treat it as a non-retryable client error.  Worse,
the failed user message was still persisted to the transcript, making
the session even larger on each attempt — creating an infinite loop.

Three-layer fix:

1. run_agent.py — Fallback heuristic: when a 400 error has a very short
   generic message AND the session is large (>40% of context or >80
   messages), treat it as a probable context overflow and trigger
   compression instead of aborting.

2. run_agent.py + gateway/run.py — Don't persist failed messages:
   when the agent returns failed=True before generating any response,
   skip writing the user's message to the transcript/DB. This prevents
   the session from growing on each failure.

3. gateway/run.py — Smarter error messages: detect context-overflow
   failures and suggest /compact or /reset specifically, instead of a
   generic 'try again' that will fail identically.

* fix(skills): detect prompt injection patterns and block cache file reads

Adds two security layers to prevent prompt injection via skills hub
cache files (#1558):

1. read_file: blocks direct reads of ~/.hermes/skills/.hub/ directory
   (index-cache, catalog files). The 3.5MB clawhub_catalog_v1.json
   was the original injection vector — untrusted skill descriptions
   in the catalog contained adversarial text that the model executed.

2. skill_view: warns when skills are loaded from outside the trusted
   ~/.hermes/skills/ directory, and detects common injection patterns
   in skill content ("ignore previous instructions", "<system>", etc.).

Cherry-picked from PR #1562 by ygd58.

* fix(tools): chunk long messages in send_message_tool before dispatch (#1552)

Long messages sent via send_message tool or cron delivery silently
failed when exceeding platform limits. Gateway adapters handle this
via truncate_message(), but the standalone senders in send_message_tool
bypassed that entirely.

- Apply truncate_message() chunking in _send_to_platform() before
  dispatching to individual platform senders
- Remove naive message[i:i+2000] character split in _send_discord()

* fix(approval): show full command in dangerous command approval (#1553)

Previously the command was truncated to 80 chars in CLI (with a
[v]iew full option), 500 chars in Discord embeds, and missing entirely
in Telegram/Slack approval messages. Now the full command is always
displayed everywhere:

- CLI: removed 80-char truncation and [v]iew full menu option
- Gateway (TG/Slack): approval_required message includes full command
  in a code block
- Discord: embed shows full command up to 4096-char limit
- Windows: skip SIGALRM-based test timeout (Unix-only)
- Updated tests: replaced view-flow tests with direct approval tests

* fix(cli): flush stdout during agent loop to prevent macOS display freeze (#1624)

The interrupt polling loop in chat() waited on the queue without
invalidating the prompt_toolkit renderer. On macOS, the StdoutProxy
buffer only flushed on input events, causing the CLI to appear frozen
during tool execution until the user typed a key.

Fix: call _invalidate() on each queue timeout (every ~100ms, throttled
to 150ms) to force the renderer to flush buffered agent output.

* fix(claw): warn when API keys are skipped during OpenClaw migration (#1580)

When --migrate-secrets is not passed (the default), API keys like
OPENROUTER_API_KEY are silently skipped with no warning. Users don't
realize their keys weren't migrated until the agent fails to connect.

Add a post-migration warning with actionable instructions: either
re-run with --migrate-secrets or add the key manually via
hermes config set.

* fix(security): block sandbox backend creds from subprocess env (#1264)

Add Modal and Daytona sandbox credentials to the subprocess env
blocklist so they're not leaked to agent terminal sessions via
printenv/env.

Cherry-picked from PR #1571 by ygd58.

* fix(gateway): cap interrupt recursion depth to prevent resource exhaustion (#816)

When a user sends multiple messages while the agent keeps failing,
_run_agent() calls itself recursively with no depth limit. This can
exhaust stack/memory if the agent is in a failure loop.

Add _MAX_INTERRUPT_DEPTH = 3. When exceeded, the pending message is
logged and the current result is returned instead of recursing deeper.

The log handler duplication bug described in #816 was already fixed
separately (AIAgent.__init__ deduplicates handlers).

* fix(gateway): /model shows active fallback model instead of config default (#1615)

When the agent falls back to a different model (e.g. due to rate
limiting), /model still showed the config default. Now tracks the
effective model/provider after each agent run and displays it.

Cleared when the primary model succeeds again or the user explicitly
switches via /model.

Cherry-picked from PR #1616 by MaxKerkula. Added hasattr guard for

* feat(gateway): inject reply-to message context for out-of-session replies (#1594)

When a user replies to a Telegram message, check if the quoted text
exists in the current session transcript. If missing (from cron jobs,
background tasks, or old sessions), prepend [Replying to: "..."] to
the message so the agent has context about what's being referenced.

- Add reply_to_text field to MessageEvent (base.py)
- Populate from Telegram's reply_to_message (text or caption)
- Inject context in _handle_message when not found in history

Based on PR #1596 by anpicasso (cherry-picked reply-to feature only,
excluded unrelated /server command and background delegation changes).

* fix: recognize Claude Code OAuth credentials in startup gate (#1455)

The _has_any_provider_configured() startup check didn't look for
Claude Code OAuth credentials (~/.claude/.credentials.json). Users
with only Claude Code auth got the setup wizard instead of starting.

* perf: use ripgrep for file search (200x faster than find)

search_files(target='files') now uses rg --files -g instead of find.
Ripgrep respects .gitignore, excludes hidden dirs by default, and has
parallel directory traversal — ~200x faster on wide trees (0.14s vs 34s
benchmarked on 164-repo tree).

Falls back to find when rg is unavailable, preserving hidden-dir
exclusion and BSD find compatibility.

Salvaged from PR #1464 by @light-merlin-dark (Merlin) — adapted to
preserve hidden-dir exclusion added since the original PR.

* refactor(tts): replace NeuTTS optional skill with built-in provider + setup flow

Remove the optional skill (redundant now that NeuTTS is a built-in TTS
provider). Replace neutts_cli dependency with a standalone synthesis
helper (tools/neutts_synth.py) that calls the neutts Python API directly
in a subprocess.

Add TTS provider selection to hermes setup:
- 'hermes setup' now prompts for TTS provider after model selection
- 'hermes setup tts' available as standalone section
- Selecting NeuTTS checks for deps and offers to install:
  espeak-ng (system) + neutts[all] (pip)
- ElevenLabs/OpenAI selections prompt for API keys
- Tool status display shows NeuTTS install state

Changes:
- Remove optional-skills/mlops/models/neutts/ (skill + CLI scaffold)
- Add tools/neutts_synth.py (standalone synthesis subprocess helper)
- Move jo.wav/jo.txt to tools/neutts_samples/ (bundled default voice)
- Refactor _generate_neutts() — uses neutts API via subprocess, no
  neutts_cli dependency, config-driven ref_audio/ref_text/model/device
- Add TTS setup to hermes_cli/setup.py (SETUP_SECTIONS, tool status)
- Update config.py defaults (ref_audio, ref_text, model, device)

* fix(docker): add explicit env allowlist for container credentials (#1436)

Docker terminal sessions are secret-dark by default. This adds
terminal.docker_forward_env as an explicit allowlist for env vars
that may be forwarded into Docker containers.

Values resolve from the current shell first, then fall back to
~/.hermes/.env. Only variables the user explicitly lists are
forwarded — nothing is auto-exposed.

feat(gateway): inject reply-to message context for out-of-session replies (#1594)
* fix: prevent infinite 400 failure loop on context overflow (#1630)

When a gateway session exceeds the model's context window, Anthropic may
return a generic 400 invalid_request_error with just 'Error' as the
message.  This bypassed the phrase-based context-length detection,
causing the agent to treat it as a non-retryable client error.  Worse,
the failed user message was still persisted to the transcript, making
the session even larger on each attempt — creating an infinite loop.

Three-layer fix:

1. run_agent.py — Fallback heuristic: when a 400 error has a very short
   generic message AND the session is large (>40% of context or >80
   messages), treat it as a probable context overflow and trigger
   compression instead of aborting.

2. run_agent.py + gateway/run.py — Don't persist failed messages:
   when the agent returns failed=True before generating any response,
   skip writing the user's message to the transcript/DB. This prevents
   the session from growing on each failure.

3. gateway/run.py — Smarter error messages: detect context-overflow
   failures and suggest /compact or /reset specifically, instead of a
   generic 'try again' that will fail identically.

* fix(skills): detect prompt injection patterns and block cache file reads

Adds two security layers to prevent prompt injection via skills hub
cache files (#1558):

1. read_file: blocks direct reads of ~/.hermes/skills/.hub/ directory
   (index-cache, catalog files). The 3.5MB clawhub_catalog_v1.json
   was the original injection vector — untrusted skill descriptions
   in the catalog contained adversarial text that the model executed.

2. skill_view: warns when skills are loaded from outside the trusted
   ~/.hermes/skills/ directory, and detects common injection patterns
   in skill content ("ignore previous instructions", "<system>", etc.).

bypassed that entirely.

- Apply truncate_message() chunking in _send_to_platform() before
  dispatching to individual platform senders
- Remove naive message[i:i+2000] character split in _send_discord()

c8582fc4a2 fix(discord): persist thread participation across gateway restarts
_bot_participated_threads was an in-memory set — lost on every restart.
After restart, the bot forgot which threads it was active in, requiring
fresh @mentions and potentially creating duplicate threads instead of
continuing existing conversations.

Changes:
- Persist thread IDs to ~/.hermes/discord_threads.json
- Load on adapter init, save on every new thread participation
- _track_thread() replaces direct .add() calls for atomic persist
- Cap at 500 tracked threads to prevent unbounded growth
- /thread slash command also tracks participation
- 7 new tests covering persistence, restart survival, corruption
  recovery, cap enforcement

in Telegram/Slack approval messages. Now the full command is always
displayed everywhere:

- CLI: removed 80-char truncation and [v]iew full menu option
- Gateway (TG/Slack): approval_required message includes full command
  in a code block
- Discord: embed shows full command up to 4096-char limit
- Windows: skip SIGALRM-based test timeout (Unix-only)
- Updated tests: replaced view-flow tests with direct approval tests

0351e4fa90 fix: add metadata param to base send_image and forward in send_animation
_send_response_parts() calls send_image(metadata=_thread_metadata) but
the base class signature didn't accept metadata, crashing platforms that
don't override send_image. send_animation already had the param but
wasn't forwarding it.

fix(tools): chunk long messages in send_message_tool before dispatch (#1552)
* fix: prevent infinite 400 failure loop on context overflow (#1630)

When a gateway session exceeds the model's context window, Anthropic may
return a generic 400 invalid_request_error with just 'Error' as the
message.  This bypassed the phrase-based context-length detection,
causing the agent to treat it as a non-retryable client error.  Worse,
the failed user message was still persisted to the transcript, making
the session even larger on each attempt — creating an infinite loop.

Three-layer fix:

1. run_agent.py — Fallback heuristic: when a 400 error has a very short
   generic message AND the session is large (>40% of context or >80
   messages), treat it as a probable context overflow and trigger
   compression instead of aborting.

2. run_agent.py + gateway/run.py — Don't persist failed messages:
   when the agent returns failed=True before generating any response,
   skip writing the user's message to the transcript/DB. This prevents
   the session from growing on each failure.

3. gateway/run.py — Smarter error messages: detect context-overflow
   failures and suggest /compact or /reset specifically, instead of a
   generic 'try again' that will fail identically.

* fix(skills): detect prompt injection patterns and block cache file reads

Adds two security layers to prevent prompt injection via skills hub
cache files (#1558):

1. read_file: blocks direct reads of ~/.hermes/skills/.hub/ directory
   (index-cache, catalog files). The 3.5MB clawhub_catalog_v1.json
   was the original injection vector — untrusted skill descriptions
   in the catalog contained adversarial text that the model executed.

2. skill_view: warns when skills are loaded from outside the trusted
   ~/.hermes/skills/ directory, and detects common injection patterns
   in skill content ("ignore previous instructions", "<system>", etc.).

Cherry-picked from PR #1562 by ygd58.

* fix(tools): chunk long messages in send_message_tool before dispatch (#1552)

Long messages sent via send_message tool or cron delivery silently
failed when exceeding platform limits. Gateway adapters handle this
via truncate_message(), but the standalone senders in send_message_tool
bypassed that entirely.

- Apply truncate_message() chunking in _send_to_platform() before
  dispatching to individual platform senders
- Remove naive message[i:i+2000] character split in _send_discord()
  in favor of centralized smart splitting
- Attach media files to last chunk only for Telegram
- Add regression tests for chunking and media placement

feat: auto-detect local file paths in gateway responses for native media delivery (#1640)
Small models (7B-14B) can't reliably use MEDIA: or IMAGE: syntax. This
adds extract_local_files() to BasePlatformAdapter that regex-detects
bare local file paths ending in image/video extensions, validates them
with os.path.isfile(), and delivers them as native platform attachments.

Hardened over the original PR:
- Code-block exclusion: paths inside fenced blocks and inline code are
  skipped so code samples are never mutilated
- URL rejection: negative lookbehind prevents matching path segments
  inside HTTP URLs
- Relative path rejection: ./foo.png no longer matches
- Tilde path cleanup: raw ~/... form is removed from response text
- Deduplication by expanded path
- Added .webm to _VIDEO_EXTS
- Fallback to send_document for unrecognized media extensions

fix: send_animation metadata, MarkdownV2 inline code splitting, tirith cosign-free install (#1626)
* fix: Anthropic OAuth compatibility — Claude Code identity fingerprinting

Anthropic routes OAuth/subscription requests based on Claude Code's
identity markers. Without them, requests get intermittent 500 errors
(~25% failure rate observed). This matches what pi-ai (clawdbot) and
OpenCode both implement for OAuth compatibility.

Changes (OAuth tokens only — API key users unaffected):

1. Headers: user-agent 'claude-cli/2.1.2 (external, cli)' + x-app 'cli'
2. System prompt: prepend 'You are Claude Code, Anthropic's official CLI'
3. System prompt sanitization: replace Hermes/Nous references
4. Tool names: prefix with 'mcp_' (Claude Code convention for non-native tools)
5. Tool name stripping: remove 'mcp_' prefix from response tool calls

Before: 9/12 OK, 1 hard fail, 4 needed retries (~25% error rate)
After: 16/16 OK, 0 failures, 0 retries (0% error rate)

* fix: three gateway issues from user error logs

1. send_animation missing metadata kwarg (base.py)
   - Base class send_animation lacked the metadata parameter that the
     call site in base.py line 917 passes. Telegram's override accepted
     it, but any platform without an override (Discord, Slack, etc.)
     hit TypeError. Added metadata to base class signature.

2. MarkdownV2 split-inside-inline-code (base.py truncate_message)
   - truncate_message could split at a space inside an inline code span
     (e.g. `function(arg1, arg2)`), leaving an unpaired backtick and
     unescaped parentheses in the chunk. Telegram rejects with
     'character ( is reserved'. Added inline code awareness to the
     split-point finder — detects odd backtick counts and moves the
     split before the code span.

3. tirith auto-install without cosign (tirith_security.py)
   - Previously required cosign on PATH for auto-install, blocking
     install entirely with a warning if missing. Now proceeds with
     SHA-256 checksum verification only when cosign is unavailable.
     Cosign is still used for full supply chain verification when
     present. If cosign IS present but verification explicitly fails,
     install is still aborted (tampered release).

refactor: centralize slash command registry (#1603)
* refactor: centralize slash command registry

Replace 7+ scattered command definition sites with a single
CommandDef registry in hermes_cli/commands.py. All downstream
consumers now derive from this registry:

- CLI process_command() resolves aliases via resolve_command()
- Gateway _known_commands uses GATEWAY_KNOWN_COMMANDS frozenset
- Gateway help text generated by gateway_help_lines()
- Telegram BotCommands generated by telegram_bot_commands()
- Slack subcommand map generated by slack_subcommand_map()

Adding a command or alias is now a one-line change to
COMMAND_REGISTRY instead of touching 6+ files.

Bugfixes included:
- Telegram now registers /rollback, /background (were missing)
- Slack now has /voice, /update, /reload-mcp (were missing)
- Gateway duplicate 'reasoning' dispatch (dead code) removed
- Gateway help text can no longer drift from CLI help

Backwards-compatible: COMMANDS and COMMANDS_BY_CATEGORY dicts are
rebuilt from the registry, so existing imports work unchanged.

* docs: update developer docs for centralized command registry

Update AGENTS.md with full 'Slash Command Registry' and 'Adding a
Slash Command' sections covering CommandDef fields, registry helpers,
and the one-line alias workflow.

Also update:
- CONTRIBUTING.md: commands.py description
- website/docs/reference/slash-commands.md: reference central registry
- docs/plans/centralize-command-registry.md: mark COMPLETED
- plans/checkpoint-rollback.md: reference new pattern
- hermes-agent-dev skill: architecture table

* feat(skills): add blender-mcp optional skill for 3D modeling

Control a running Blender instance from Hermes via socket connection
to the blender-mcp addon (port 9876). Supports creating 3D objects,
materials, animations, and running arbitrary bpy code.

Placed in optional-skills/ since it requires Blender 4.3+ desktop
with a third-party addon manually started each session.

* feat(acp): support slash commands in ACP adapter (#1532)

Adds /help, /model, /tools, /context, /reset, /compact, /version
to the ACP adapter (VS Code, Zed, JetBrains). Commands are handled
directly in the server without instantiating the TUI — each command
queries agent/session state and returns plain text.

Unrecognized /commands fall through to the LLM as normal messages.

/model uses detect_provider_for_model() for auto-detection when
switching models, matching the CLI and gateway behavior.

Fixes #1402

* fix(logging): improve error logging in session search tool (#1533)

* fix(gateway): restart on retryable startup failures (#1517)

* feat(email): add skip_attachments option via config.yaml

* feat(email): add skip_attachments option via config.yaml

Adds a config.yaml-driven option to skip email attachments in the
gateway email adapter. Useful for malware protection and bandwidth
savings.

Configure in config.yaml:
  platforms:
    email:
      skip_attachments: true

Based on PR #1521 by @an420eth, changed from env var to config.yaml
(via PlatformConfig.extra) to match the project's config-first pattern.

* docs: document skip_attachments option for email adapter

* fix(telegram): retry on transient TLS failures during connect and send

Add exponential-backoff retry (3 attempts) around initialize() to
handle transient TLS resets during gateway startup. Also catches
TimedOut and OSError in addition to NetworkError.

Add exponential-backoff retry (3 attempts) around send_message() for
NetworkError during message delivery, wrapping the existing Markdown
fallback logic.

Both imports are guarded with try/except ImportError for test
environments where telegram is mocked.

Based on PR #1527 by cmd8. Closes #1526.

* feat: permissive block_anchor thresholds and unicode normalization (#1539)

Salvaged from PR #1528 by an420eth. Closes #517.

Improves _strategy_block_anchor in fuzzy_match.py:
- Add unicode normalization (smart quotes, em/en-dashes, ellipsis,
  non-breaking spaces → ASCII) so LLM-produced unicode artifacts
  don't break anchor line matching
- Lower thresholds: 0.10 for unique matches (was 0.70), 0.30 for
  multiple candidates — if first/last lines match exactly, the
  block is almost certainly correct
- Use original (non-normalized) content for offset calculation to
  preserve correct character positions

Tested: 3 new scenarios fixed (em-dash anchors, non-breaking space
anchors, very-low-similarity unique matches), zero regressions on
all 9 existing fuzzy match tests.

* feat(cli): add file path autocomplete in the input prompt (#1545)

When typing a path-like token (./  ../  ~/  /  or containing /),
the CLI now shows filesystem completions in the dropdown menu.
Directories show a trailing slash and 'dir' label; files show
their size. Completions are case-insensitive and capped at 30
entries.

Triggered by tokens like:
  edit ./src/ma     → shows ./src/main.py, ./src/manifest.json, ...
  check ~/doc       → shows ~/docs/, ~/documents/, ...
  read /etc/hos     → shows /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname, ...
  open tools/reg    → shows tools/registry.py

Slash command autocomplete (/help, /model, etc.) is unaffected —
it still triggers when the input starts with /.

Inspired by OpenCode PR #145 (file path completion menu).

Implementation:
- hermes_cli/commands.py: _extract_path_word() detects path-like
  tokens, _path_completions() yields filesystem Completions with
  size labels, get_completions() routes to paths vs slash commands
- tests/hermes_cli/test_path_completion.py: 26 tests covering
  path extraction, prefix filtering, directory markers, home
  expansion, case-insensitivity, integration with slash commands

* feat(privacy): redact PII from LLM context when privacy.redact_pii is enabled

Add privacy.redact_pii config option (boolean, default false). When
enabled, the gateway redacts personally identifiable information from
the system prompt before sending it to the LLM provider:

- Phone numbers (user IDs on WhatsApp/Signal) → hashed to user_<sha256>
- User IDs → hashed to user_<sha256>
- Chat IDs → numeric portion hashed, platform prefix preserved
- Home channel IDs → hashed
- Names/usernames → NOT affected (user-chosen, publicly visible)

Hashes are deterministic (same user → same hash) so the model can
still distinguish users in group chats. Routing and delivery use
the original values internally — redaction only affects LLM context.

Inspired by OpenClaw PR #47959.

* fix(privacy): skip PII redaction on Discord/Slack (mentions need real IDs)

Discord uses <@user_id> for mentions and Slack uses <@U12345> — the LLM
needs the real ID to tag users. Redaction now only applies to WhatsApp,
Signal, and Telegram where IDs are pure routing metadata.

Add 4 platform-specific tests covering Discord, WhatsApp, Signal, Slack.

* feat: smart approvals + /stop command (inspired by OpenAI Codex)

* feat: smart approvals — LLM-based risk assessment for dangerous commands

Adds a 'smart' approval mode that uses the auxiliary LLM to assess
whether a flagged command is genuinely dangerous or a false positive,
auto-approving low-risk commands without prompting the user.

Inspired by OpenAI Codex's Smart Approvals guardian subagent
(openai/codex#13860).

Config (config.yaml):
  approvals:
    mode: manual   # manual (default), smart, off

Modes:
- manual — current behavior, always prompt the user
- smart  — aux LLM evaluates risk: APPROVE (auto-allow), DENY (block),
           or ESCALATE (fall through to manual prompt)
- off    — skip all approval prompts (equivalent to --yolo)

When smart mode auto-approves, the pattern gets session-level approval
so subsequent uses of the same pattern don't trigger another LLM call.
When it denies, the command is blocked without user prompt. When
uncertain, it escalates to the normal manual approval flow.

The LLM prompt is carefully scoped: it sees only the command text and
the flagged reason, assesses actual risk vs false positive, and returns
a single-word verdict.

* feat: make smart approval model configurable via config.yaml

Adds auxiliary.approval section to config.yaml with the same
provider/model/base_url/api_key pattern as other aux tasks (vision,
web_extract, compression, etc.).

Config:
  auxiliary:
    approval:
      provider: auto
      model: ''        # fast/cheap model recommended
      base_url: ''
      api_key: ''

Bridged to env vars in both CLI and gateway paths so the aux client
picks them up automatically.

* feat: add /stop command to kill all background processes

Adds a /stop slash command that kills all running background processes
at once. Currently users have to process(list) then process(kill) for
each one individually.

Inspired by OpenAI Codex's separation of interrupt (Ctrl+C stops current
turn) from /stop (cleans up background processes). See openai/codex#14602.

Ctrl+C continues to only interrupt the active agent turn — background
dev servers, watchers, etc. are preserved. /stop is the explicit way
to clean them all up.

* feat: first-class plugin architecture + hide status bar cost by default (#1544)

The persistent status bar now shows context %, token counts, and
duration but NOT $ cost by default. Cost display is opt-in via:

  display:
    show_cost: true

in config.yaml, or: hermes config set display.show_cost true

The /usage command still shows full cost breakdown since the user
explicitly asked for it — this only affects the always-visible bar.

Status bar without cost:
  ⚕ claude-sonnet-4 │ 12K/200K │ 6% │ 15m

Status bar with show_cost: true:
  ⚕ claude-sonnet-4 │ 12K/200K │ 6% │ $0.06 │ 15m

* feat: improve memory prioritization + aggressive skill updates (inspired by OpenAI Codex)

* feat: improve memory prioritization — user preferences over procedural knowledge

Inspired by OpenAI Codex's memory prompt improvements (openai/codex#14493)
which focus memory writes on user preferences and recurring patterns
rather than procedural task details.

Key insight: 'Optimize for reducing future user steering — the most
valuable memory prevents the user from having to repeat themselves.'

Changes:
- MEMORY_GUIDANCE (prompt_builder.py): added prioritization hierarchy
  and the core principle about reducing user steering
- MEMORY_SCHEMA (memory_tool.py): reordered WHEN TO SAVE list to put
  corrections first, added explicit PRIORITY guidance
- Memory nudge (run_agent.py): now asks specifically about preferences,
  corrections, and workflow patterns instead of generic 'anything'
- Memory flush (run_agent.py): now instructs to prioritize user
  preferences and corrections over task-specific details

* feat: more aggressive skill creation and update prompting

Press harder on skill updates — the agent should proactively patch
skills when it encounters issues during use, not wait to be asked.

Changes:
- SKILLS_GUIDANCE: 'consider saving' → 'save'; added explicit instruction
  to patch skills immediately when found outdated/wrong
- Skills header: added instruction to update loaded skills before finishing
  if they had missing steps or wrong commands
- Skill nudge: more assertive ('save the approach' not 'consider saving'),
  now also prompts for updating existing skills used in the task
- Skill nudge interval: lowered default from 15 to 10 iterations
- skill_manage schema: added 'patch it immediately' to update triggers

* feat: first-class plugin architecture (#1555)

Plugin system for extending Hermes with custom tools, hooks, and
integrations — no source code changes required.

Core system (hermes_cli/plugins.py):
  - Plugin discovery from ~/.hermes/plugins/, .hermes/plugins/, and
    pip entry_points (hermes_agent.plugins group)
  - PluginContext with register_tool() and register_hook()
  - 6 lifecycle hooks: pre/post tool_call, pre/post llm_call,
    on_session_start/end
  - Namespace package handling for relative imports in plugins
  - Graceful error isolation — broken plugins never crash the agent

Integration (model_tools.py):
  - Plugin discovery runs after built-in + MCP tools
  - Plugin tools bypass toolset filter via get_plugin_tool_names()
  - Pre/post tool call hooks fire in handle_function_call()

CLI:
  - /plugins command shows loaded plugins, tool counts, status
  - Added to COMMANDS dict for autocomplete

Docs:
  - Getting started guide (build-a-hermes-plugin.md) — full tutorial
    building a calculator plugin step by step
  - Reference page (features/plugins.md) — quick overview + tables
  - Covers: file structure, schemas, handlers, hooks, data files,
    bundled skills, env var gating, pip distribution, common mistakes

Tests: 16 tests covering discovery, loading, hooks, tool visibility.

* feat: add /bg as alias for /background slash command

Adds /bg alias across CLI, gateway, and Slack platform adapter.
Updates help text, autocomplete, known_commands set, and dispatch
logic. Includes tests for the new alias.

* docs: add plan for centralized slash command registry

Scopes a refactor to replace 7+ scattered command definition sites
with a single CommandDef registry in hermes_cli/commands.py. Includes
derived helper functions for gateway help text, Telegram BotCommands,
Slack subcommand maps, and alias resolution.

Documents current drift (Telegram missing /rollback + /background,
Slack missing /voice + /update, gateway dead code) that the refactor
fixes for free.

25a1f1867f fix(gateway): prevent message flooding on adapters without edit support
When the stream consumer's first edit_message() call fails (Signal,
Email, HomeAssistant don't support editing), it now disables editing
for the rest of the stream instead of falling back to sending a new
message every 0.3 seconds. The final response is delivered by the
normal send path since already_sent stays false.

Without this fix, enabling gateway streaming on Signal/Email/HA would
flood the chat with dozens of partial messages.

/model uses detect_provider_for_model() for auto-detection when
switching models, matching the CLI and gateway behavior.

* feat: permissive block_anchor thresholds and unicode normalization (#1539)

Salvaged from PR #1528 by an420eth. Closes #517.

Improves _strategy_block_anchor in fuzzy_match.py:
- Add unicode normalization (smart quotes, em/en-dashes, ellipsis,
  non-breaking spaces → ASCII) so LLM-produced unicode artifacts
  don't break anchor line matching
- Lower thresholds: 0.10 for unique matches (was 0.70), 0.30 for
  multiple candidates — if first/last lines match exactly, the
  block is almost certainly correct
- Use original (non-normalized) content for offset calculation to
  preserve correct character positions

Tested: 3 new scenarios fixed (em-dash anchors, non-breaking space
anchors, very-low-similarity unique matches), zero regressions on
all 9 existing fuzzy match tests.

* feat(cli): add file path autocomplete in the input prompt (#1545)

When typing a path-like token (./  ../  ~/  /  or containing /),
the CLI now shows filesystem completions in the dropdown menu.
Directories show a trailing slash and 'dir' label; files show
their size. Completions are case-insensitive and capped at 30
entries.

Triggered by tokens like:
  edit ./src/ma     → shows ./src/main.py, ./src/manifest.json, ...
  check ~/doc       → shows ~/docs/, ~/documents/, ...
  read /etc/hos     → shows /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname, ...
  open tools/reg    → shows tools/registry.py

Slash command autocomplete (/help, /model, etc.) is unaffected —
it still triggers when the input starts with /.

Inspired by OpenCode PR #145 (file path completion menu).

Implementation:
- hermes_cli/commands.py: _extract_path_word() detects path-like
  tokens, _path_completions() yields filesystem Completions with
  size labels, get_completions() routes to paths vs slash commands
- tests/hermes_cli/test_path_completion.py: 26 tests covering
  path extraction, prefix filtering, directory markers, home
  expansion, case-insensitivity, integration with slash commands

* feat(privacy): redact PII from LLM context when privacy.redact_pii is enabled

Add privacy.redact_pii config option (boolean, default false). When
enabled, the gateway redacts personally identifiable information from
the system prompt before sending it to the LLM provider:

- Phone numbers (user IDs on WhatsApp/Signal) → hashed to user_<sha256>
- User IDs → hashed to user_<sha256>
- Chat IDs → numeric portion hashed, platform prefix preserved
- Home channel IDs → hashed
- Names/usernames → NOT affected (user-chosen, publicly visible)

Hashes are deterministic (same user → same hash) so the model can
still distinguish users in group chats. Routing and delivery use
the original values internally — redaction only affects LLM context.

Inspired by OpenClaw PR #47959.

* fix(privacy): skip PII redaction on Discord/Slack (mentions need real IDs)

Discord uses <@user_id> for mentions and Slack uses <@U12345> — the LLM
needs the real ID to tag users. Redaction now only applies to WhatsApp,
Signal, and Telegram where IDs are pure routing metadata.

Add 4 platform-specific tests covering Discord, WhatsApp, Signal, Slack.

* feat: smart approvals + /stop command (inspired by OpenAI Codex)

* feat: smart approvals — LLM-based risk assessment for dangerous commands

Adds a 'smart' approval mode that uses the auxiliary LLM to assess
whether a flagged command is genuinely dangerous or a false positive,
auto-approving low-risk commands without prompting the user.

Inspired by OpenAI Codex's Smart Approvals guardian subagent
(openai/codex#13860).

Config (config.yaml):
  approvals:
    mode: manual   # manual (default), smart, off

Modes:
- manual — current behavior, always prompt the user
- smart  — aux LLM evaluates risk: APPROVE (auto-allow), DENY (block),
           or ESCALATE (fall through to manual prompt)
- off    — skip all approval prompts (equivalent to --yolo)

When smart mode auto-approves, the pattern gets session-level approval
so subsequent uses of the same pattern don't trigger another LLM call.
When it denies, the command is blocked without user prompt. When
uncertain, it escalates to the normal manual approval flow.

The LLM prompt is carefully scoped: it sees only the command text and
the flagged reason, assesses actual risk vs false positive, and returns
a single-word verdict.

* feat: make smart approval model configurable via config.yaml

Adds auxiliary.approval section to config.yaml with the same
provider/model/base_url/api_key pattern as other aux tasks (vision,
web_extract, compression, etc.).

Config:
  auxiliary:
    approval:
      provider: auto
      model: ''        # fast/cheap model recommended
      base_url: ''
      api_key: ''

Bridged to env vars in both CLI and gateway paths so the aux client
picks them up automatically.

* feat: add /stop command to kill all background processes

Adds a /stop slash command that kills all running background processes
at once. Currently users have to process(list) then process(kill) for
each one individually.

Inspired by OpenAI Codex's separation of interrupt (Ctrl+C stops current
turn) from /stop (cleans up background processes). See openai/codex#14602.

Ctrl+C continues to only interrupt the active agent turn — background
dev servers, watchers, etc. are preserved. /stop is the explicit way
to clean them all up.

* feat: first-class plugin architecture + hide status bar cost by default (#1544)

The persistent status bar now shows context %, token counts, and
duration but NOT $ cost by default. Cost display is opt-in via:

  display:
    show_cost: true

in config.yaml, or: hermes config set display.show_cost true

The /usage command still shows full cost breakdown since the user
explicitly asked for it — this only affects the always-visible bar.

Status bar without cost:
  ⚕ claude-sonnet-4 │ 12K/200K │ 6% │ 15m

Status bar with show_cost: true:
  ⚕ claude-sonnet-4 │ 12K/200K │ 6% │ $0.06 │ 15m

* feat: improve memory prioritization + aggressive skill updates (inspired by OpenAI Codex)

* feat: improve memory prioritization — user preferences over procedural knowledge

Inspired by OpenAI Codex's memory prompt improvements (openai/codex#14493)
which focus memory writes on user preferences and recurring patterns
rather than procedural task details.

Key insight: 'Optimize for reducing future user steering — the most
valuable memory prevents the user from having to repeat themselves.'

Changes:
- MEMORY_GUIDANCE (prompt_builder.py): added prioritization hierarchy
  and the core principle about reducing user steering
- MEMORY_SCHEMA (memory_tool.py): reordered WHEN TO SAVE list to put
  corrections first, added explicit PRIORITY guidance
- Memory nudge (run_agent.py): now asks specifically about preferences,
  corrections, and workflow patterns instead of generic 'anything'
- Memory flush (run_agent.py): now instructs to prioritize user
  preferences and corrections over task-specific details

* feat: more aggressive skill creation and update prompting

Press harder on skill updates — the agent should proactively patch
skills when it encounters issues during use, not wait to be asked.

Changes:
- SKILLS_GUIDANCE: 'consider saving' → 'save'; added explicit instruction
  to patch skills immediately when found outdated/wrong
- Skills header: added instruction to update loaded skills before finishing
  if they had missing steps or wrong commands
- Skill nudge: more assertive ('save the approach' not 'consider saving'),
  now also prompts for updating existing skills used in the task
- Skill nudge interval: lowered default from 15 to 10 iterations
- skill_manage schema: added 'patch it immediately' to update triggers

* feat: first-class plugin architecture (#1555)

Plugin system for extending Hermes with custom tools, hooks, and
integrations — no source code changes required.

Core system (hermes_cli/plugins.py):
  - Plugin discovery from ~/.hermes/plugins/, .hermes/plugins/, and
    pip entry_points (hermes_agent.plugins group)
  - PluginContext with register_tool() and register_hook()
  - 6 lifecycle hooks: pre/post tool_call, pre/post llm_call,
    on_session_start/end
  - Namespace package handling for relative imports in plugins
  - Graceful error isolation — broken plugins never crash the agent

Integration (model_tools.py):
  - Plugin discovery runs after built-in + MCP tools
  - Plugin tools bypass toolset filter via get_plugin_tool_names()
  - Pre/post tool call hooks fire in handle_function_call()

CLI:
  - /plugins command shows loaded plugins, tool counts, status
  - Added to COMMANDS dict for autocomplete

Docs:
  - Getting started guide (build-a-hermes-plugin.md) — full tutorial
    building a calculator plugin step by step
  - Reference page (features/plugins.md) — quick overview + tables
  - Covers: file structure, schemas, handlers, hooks, data files,
    bundled skills, env var gating, pip distribution, common mistakes

Tests: 16 tests covering discovery, loading, hooks, tool visibility.

* fix: hermes update causes dual gateways on macOS (launchd)

Three bugs worked together to create the dual-gateway problem:

1. cmd_update only checked systemd for gateway restart, completely
   ignoring launchd on macOS. After killing the PID it would print
   'Restart it with: hermes gateway run' even when launchd was about
   to auto-respawn the process.

2. launchd's KeepAlive.SuccessfulExit=false respawns the gateway
   after SIGTERM (non-zero exit), so the user's manual restart
   created a second instance.

3. The launchd plist lacked --replace (systemd had it), so the
   respawned gateway didn't kill stale instances on startup.

Fixes:
- Add --replace to launchd ProgramArguments (matches systemd)
- Add launchd detection to cmd_update's auto-restart logic
- Print 'auto-restart via launchd' instead of manual restart hint

* fix: add launchd plist auto-refresh + explicit restart in cmd_update

Two integration issues with the initial fix:

1. Existing macOS users with old plist (no --replace) would never
   get the fix until manual uninstall/reinstall. Added
   refresh_launchd_plist_if_needed() — mirrors the existing
   refresh_systemd_unit_if_needed(). Called from launchd_start(),
   launchd_restart(), and cmd_update.

2. cmd_update relied on KeepAlive respawn after SIGTERM rather than
   explicit launchctl stop/start. This caused races: launchd would
   respawn the old process before the PID file was cleaned up.
   Now does explicit stop+start (matching how systemd gets an
   explicit systemctl restart), with plist refresh first so the
   new --replace flag is picked up.

c0b88018eb feat: ship streaming disabled by default — opt-in via config
Streaming is now off by default for both CLI and gateway. Users opt in:

CLI (config.yaml):
  display:

Gateway (config.yaml):
  streaming:
    enabled: true

This lets early adopters test streaming while existing users see zero
change. Once we have enough field validation, we flip the default to
true in a subsequent release.

8e07f9ca56 fix: audit fixes — 5 bugs found and resolved
Thorough code review found 5 issues across run_agent.py, cli.py, and gateway/:

1. CRITICAL — Gateway stream consumer task never started: stream_consumer_holder
   was checked BEFORE run_sync populated it. Fixed with async polling pattern
   (same as track_agent).

2. MEDIUM-HIGH — Streaming fallback after partial delivery caused double-response:
   if streaming failed after some tokens were delivered, the fallback would
   re-deliver the full response. Now tracks deltas_were_sent and only falls
   back when no tokens reached consumers yet.

3. MEDIUM — Codex mode lost on_first_delta spinner callback: _run_codex_stream
   now accepts on_first_delta parameter, fires it on first text delta. Passed
   through from _interruptible_streaming_api_call via _codex_on_first_delta
   instance attribute.

4. MEDIUM — CLI close-tag after-text bypassed tag filtering: text after a
   reasoning close tag was sent directly to _emit_stream_text, skipping
   open-tag detection. Now routes through _stream_delta for full filtering.

5. LOW — Removed 140 lines of dead code: old _streaming_api_call method
   (superseded by _interruptible_streaming_api_call). Updated 13 tests in
   test_run_agent.py and test_openai_client_lifecycle.py to use the new
   method name and signature.

4573 tests passing.

5479bb0e0c feat(gateway): streaming token delivery — StreamingConfig, GatewayStreamConsumer, already_sent
Stage 3 of streaming support. Gateway now streams tokens to messaging platforms:

- StreamingConfig dataclass (enabled, transport, edit_interval, buffer_threshold, cursor)
  on GatewayConfig with from_dict/to_dict serialization
- GatewayStreamConsumer: async queue-based consumer that progressively edits
  a single message on the target platform (edit transport)
- on_delta() → queue → run() async task → send_or_edit() with rate limiting
- already_sent propagation: when streaming delivered the response, handler
  returns None so base adapter skips duplicate send()
- stream_delta_callback wired into AIAgent constructor in _run_agent
- Consumer lifecycle: started as asyncio task, awaited with timeout in finally

Config (config.yaml):
  streaming:
    enabled: true
    transport: edit      # progressive editMessageText
    edit_interval: 0.3   # seconds between edits
    buffer_threshold: 40 # chars before forcing flush

feat: auto-detect provider when switching models via /model (#1506)
When typing /model deepseek-chat while on a different provider, the
model name now auto-resolves to the correct provider instead of
silently staying on the wrong one and causing API errors.

Detection priority:
1. Direct provider with credentials (e.g. DEEPSEEK_API_KEY set)
2. OpenRouter catalog match with proper slug remapping
3. Direct provider without creds (clear error beats silent failure)

Also adds DeepSeek as a first-class API-key provider — just set
DEEPSEEK_API_KEY and /model deepseek-chat routes directly.

Bare model names get remapped to proper OpenRouter slugs:
  /model gpt-5.4 → openai/gpt-5.4
  /model claude-opus-4.6 → anthropic/claude-opus-4.6

Salvages the concept from PR #1177 by @virtaava with credential

fix(honcho): isolate session routing for multi-user gateway (#1500)
Salvaged from PR #1470 by adavyas.

Core fix: Honcho tool calls in a multi-session gateway could route to
the wrong session because honcho_tools.py relied on process-global
state. Now threads session context through the call chain:
  AIAgent._invoke_tool() → handle_function_call() → registry.dispatch()
  → handler **kw → _resolve_session_context()

Changes:
- Add _resolve_session_context() to prefer per-call context over globals
- Plumb honcho_manager + honcho_session_key through handle_function_call
- Add sync_honcho=False to run_conversation() for synthetic flush turns
- Pass honcho_session_key through gateway memory flush lifecycle
- Harden gateway PID detection when /proc cmdline is unreadable
- Make interrupt test scripts import-safe for pytest-xdist
- Wrap BibTeX examples in Jekyll raw blocks for docs build
- Fix thread-order-dependent assertion in client lifecycle test
- Expand Honcho docs: session isolation, lifecycle, routing internals

Dropped from original PR:

  client creation inside the lock (causes unnecessary contention)

Background process progress/completion messages were sent with only
chat_id, landing in the general topic instead of the originating forum

routes notifications to the correct topic.

The env var export (HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID in _set_session_env /

missing watcher plumbing.

  emojis (e.g. ares skin could use swords instead of wrenches)
- Add 11 tests (5 registry emoji, 6 display/skin integration)
- Update AGENTS.md skin docs table

Based on the approach from PR #1061 by ForgingAlex (emoji centralization
in registry). This salvage fixes several issues from the original:
- Does NOT split the cronjob tool (which would crash on missing schemas)
- Does NOT change image_generate toolset/requires_env/is_async
- Does NOT delete existing tests
- Completes the centralization (gateway/run.py was missed)
- Hooks into the skin system for full customizability

33ebedc76d feat: enable persistent shell by default for SSH, add config option
SSH persistent shell now defaults to true — non-local backends benefit
most from state persistence across execute() calls. Local backend
remains opt-in via TERMINAL_LOCAL_PERSISTENT env var.

New config.yaml option: terminal.persistent_shell (default: true)
Controls the default for non-local backends. Users can disable with:
  hermes config set terminal.persistent_shell false

Precedence: per-backend env var > TERMINAL_PERSISTENT_SHELL > default.

Wired through cli.py, gateway/run.py, and hermes_cli/config.py so the
config.yaml value reaches terminal_tool via env var bridge.

feat(discord): auto-thread on @mention + skip mention in bot threads
Two changes to align Discord behavior with Slack:

1. Auto-thread on @mention (default: true)
   - When someone @mentions the bot in a server channel, a thread is
     automatically created from their message and the response goes there.
   - Each thread gets its own isolated session (like Slack).
   - Configurable via discord.auto_thread in config.yaml (default: true)
     or DISCORD_AUTO_THREAD env var (env takes precedence).
   - DMs and existing threads are unaffected.

2. Skip @mention in bot-participated threads
   - Once the bot has responded in a thread (auto-created or manually
     entered), subsequent messages in that thread no longer require
     @mention. Users can just type normally.
   - Tracked via in-memory set (_bot_participated_threads). After a
     gateway restart, users need to @mention once to re-establish.
   - Threads the bot hasn't participated in still require @mention.

Config change:
   discord:
     auto_thread: true  # new, added to DEFAULT_CONFIG

Tests: 7 new tests covering auto-thread default, disable, bot thread
participation tracking, and mention skip logic. All 903 gateway tests pass.

20f381cfb6 fix: preserve thread context for cronjob deliver=origin
When a cronjob is created from within a Telegram or Slack thread,
deliver=origin was posting to the parent channel instead of the thread.

Root cause: the gateway never set HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID in the
session environment, so cronjob_tools.py could not capture thread_id
into the job's origin metadata — even though the scheduler already
reads origin.get('thread_id').

Fix:
- gateway/run.py: set HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID when thread_id is
  present on the session context, and clear it in _clear_session_env
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: read HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID into origin

f24c00a5bf fix(config): reload .env over stale shell overrides
Hermes startup entrypoints now load ~/.hermes/.env and project fallback env files with user config taking precedence over stale shell-exported values.

Adds a shared env loader plus regression coverage, and reproduces the original bug case where OPENAI_BASE_URL and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER remained stuck on old shell values before import.

After bot leave/rejoin, Discord doesn't resend SPEAKING events for

Track adapter background message-processing tasks, cancel them during gateway shutdown, and interrupt running agents before disconnecting adapters.

2046a4c08c fix: backfill model on gateway sessions after agent runs
Gateway sessions end up with model=NULL because the session row is
created before AIAgent is constructed.  After the agent responds,
update_session() writes token counts but never fills in the model.

Thread agent.model through _run_agent()'s return dict into
update_session() → update_token_counts().  The SQL uses
COALESCE(model, ?) so it only fills NULL rows — never overwrites
a model already set at creation time (e.g. CLI sessions).

If the agent falls back to a different provider, agent.model is
updated in-place by _try_activate_fallback(), so the recorded value
reflects whichever model actually produced the response.

eb34c0b09a fix: voice pipeline hardening — 7 bug fixes with tests

3. Discord disconnect cleanup: leave all voice channels before closing
   the client to prevent leaked state.

4. Audio stream leak: close InputStream if stream.start() fails.

5. Race condition: read/write _on_silence_stop under lock in audio
   callback thread.

6. _vprint force=True: show API error, retry, and truncation messages
   even during streaming TTS.

2. Discord VC synthetic events now use chat_type="channel" instead of
   defaulting to "dm" — prevents session bleed into DM context.
   Authorization runs before echoing transcript. Sanitize @everyone/@here
   in voice transcripts.

3. CLI voice prefix ("[Voice input...]") is now API-call-local only —
   stripped from returned history so it never persists to session DB or
   resumed sessions.

4. /voice off now disables base adapter auto-TTS via _auto_tts_disabled_chats
   set — voice input no longer triggers TTS when voice mode is off.

9722bd8be0 fix: 8 voice pipeline bugs with tests proving each fix
1. VoiceReceiver.stop() now acquires _lock before clearing shared state
   to prevent race with _on_packet on the socket reader thread
2. _packet_debug_count moved from class-level to instance-level to avoid
   cross-instance race condition in multi-guild setups
3. play_in_voice_channel uses asyncio.get_running_loop() instead of
   deprecated asyncio.get_event_loop()
4. _send_voice_reply uses uuid for filenames instead of time-based names
   that can collide when two replies happen in the same second
5. Voice timeout now notifies runner via _on_voice_disconnect callback
   so runner cleans up _voice_mode state (prevents orphaned TTS replies)
6. play_in_voice_channel adds PLAYBACK_TIMEOUT (120s) to prevent
   infinite blocking when FFmpeg callback is never called
7. _send_voice_reply moves temp file cleanup to finally block so files
   are always cleaned up even when send_voice/play raises
8. Base adapter auto-TTS wraps play_tts in try/finally with os.remove
   to clean up generated audio files after playback

18 new tests (120 total voice tests)

fbf47e9ff6 fix: allow voice reply in Discord VC despite skip_double guard
When bot is in a Discord voice channel, both base auto-TTS and Discord
play_tts override skip audio. The skip_double guard was also blocking
the runner's _send_voice_reply, resulting in zero audio output in VC.

Now skip_double is overridden when the bot is actively connected to a
voice channel, allowing play_in_voice_channel to handle TTS.

Add comprehensive test matrix covering all platform x input x mode
combinations with full decision table documentation.

095815d520 fix: skip gateway voice reply for all platforms on voice input
Base adapter auto-TTS already generates and sends audio for voice

just Web). Now skip_double applies to any voice input regardless

50d6659392 fix: handle MEDIA tags in send_message tool for native file delivery
The send_message tool's _send_telegram() sent MEDIA:<path> tags as

extracting MEDIA tags via BasePlatformAdapter.extract_media() and
routing files to the appropriate Telegram Bot API method by extension.

  photo/video/voice/audio/document based on file extension
- send_message_tool: add per-file error handling and missing-file logging
- send_message_tool: use cleaned text in fallback to avoid leaking tags
- base.py extract_media: handle optional space after MEDIA: colon
- base.py extract_media: strip surrounding backticks/quotes from paths

375ce8a881 feat(security): add tirith pre-exec command scanning
Integrate tirith as a pre-execution security scanner that detects
homograph URLs, pipe-to-interpreter patterns, terminal injection,
zero-width Unicode, and environment variable manipulation — threats
the existing 50-pattern dangerous command detector doesn't cover.

Architecture: gather-then-decide — both tirith and the dangerous
command detector run before any approval prompt, preventing gateway
force=True replay from bypassing one check when only the other was
shown to the user.

New files:
- tools/tirith_security.py: subprocess wrapper with auto-installer,
  mandatory cosign provenance verification, non-blocking background
  download, disk-persistent failure markers with retryable-cause
  tracking (cosign_missing auto-clears when cosign appears on PATH)
- tests/tools/test_tirith_security.py: 62 tests covering exit code
  mapping, fail_open, cosign verification, background install,
  HERMES_HOME isolation, and failure recovery
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py: 21 integration tests for the
  combined guard orchestration

- tools/approval.py: add check_all_command_guards() orchestrator,
  add allow_permanent parameter to prompt_dangerous_approval()
- tools/terminal_tool.py: replace _check_dangerous_command with
  consolidated check_all_command_guards

437ec17125 fix(cli): respect HERMES_HOME in all remaining hardcoded ~/.hermes paths
Several files resolved paths via Path.home() / ".hermes" or
os.path.expanduser("~/.hermes/..."), bypassing the HERMES_HOME
environment variable. This broke isolation when running multiple
Hermes instances with distinct HERMES_HOME directories.

Replace all hardcoded paths with calls to get_hermes_home() from
hermes_cli.config, consistent with the rest of the codebase.

Files fixed:
- tools/process_registry.py (processes.json)
- gateway/pairing.py (pairing/)
- gateway/sticker_cache.py (sticker_cache.json)
- gateway/channel_directory.py (channel_directory.json, sessions.json)

fix: handle YAML null values in session reset policy + configurable API timeout (#1194)
* fix: Home Assistant event filtering now closed by default

Previously, when no watch_domains or watch_entities were configured,
ALL state_changed events passed through to the agent, causing users
to be flooded with notifications for every HA entity change.

Now events are dropped by default unless the user explicitly configures:
- watch_domains: list of domains to monitor (e.g. climate, light)
- watch_entities: list of specific entity IDs to monitor
- watch_all: true (new option — opt-in to receive all events)

A warning is logged at connect time if no filters are configured,
guiding users to set up their HA platform config.

All 49 gateway HA tests + 52 HA tool tests pass.

* docs: update Home Assistant integration documentation

- homeassistant.md: Fix event filtering docs to reflect closed-by-default
  behavior. Add watch_all option. Replace Python dict config example with
  YAML. Fix defaults table (was incorrectly showing 'all'). Add required
  configuration warning admonition.
- environment-variables.md: Add HASS_TOKEN and HASS_URL to Messaging section.
- messaging/index.md: Add Home Assistant to description, architecture
  diagram, platform toolsets table, and Next Steps links.

* fix(terminal): strip provider env vars from background and PTY subprocesses

Extends the env var blocklist from #1157 to also cover the two remaining
leaky paths in process_registry.py:

- spawn_local() PTY path (line 156)
- spawn_local() background Popen path (line 197)

Both were still using raw os.environ, leaking provider vars to background
processes and interactive PTY sessions. Now uses the same dynamic
_HERMES_PROVIDER_ENV_BLOCKLIST from local.py.

Explicit env_vars passed to spawn_local() still override the blocklist,
matching the existing behavior for callers that intentionally need these.

Gap identified by PR #1004 (@PeterFile).

* feat(delegate): add observability metadata to subagent results

Enrich delegate_task results with metadata from the child AIAgent:

- model: which model the child used
- exit_reason: completed | interrupted | max_iterations
- tokens.input / tokens.output: token counts
- tool_trace: per-tool-call trace with byte sizes and ok/error status

Tool trace uses tool_call_id matching to correctly pair parallel tool
calls with their results, with a fallback for messages without IDs.

Cherry-picked from PR #872 by @omerkaz, with fixes:
- Fixed parallel tool call trace pairing (was always updating last entry)
- Removed redundant 'iterations' field (identical to existing 'api_calls')
- Added test for parallel tool call trace correctness

* feat(stt): add free local whisper transcription via faster-whisper

Replace OpenAI-only STT with a dual-provider system mirroring the TTS
architecture (Edge TTS free / ElevenLabs paid):

  STT: faster-whisper local (free, default) / OpenAI Whisper API (paid)

Changes:
- tools/transcription_tools.py: Full rewrite with provider dispatch,
  config loading, local faster-whisper backend, and OpenAI API backend.
  Auto-downloads model (~150MB for 'base') on first voice message.
  Singleton model instance reused across calls.
- pyproject.toml: Add faster-whisper>=1.0.0 as core dependency
- hermes_cli/config.py: Expand stt config to match TTS pattern with
  provider selection and per-provider model settings
- agent/context_compressor.py: Fix .strip() crash when LLM returns
  non-string content (dict from llama.cpp, None). Fixes #1100 partially.
- tests/: 23 new tests for STT providers + 2 for compressor fix
- docs/: Updated Voice & TTS page with STT provider table, model sizes,
  config examples, and fallback behavior

Fallback behavior:
- Local not installed → OpenAI API (if key set)
- OpenAI key not set → local whisper (if installed)
- Neither → graceful error message to user

* fix: handle YAML null values in session reset policy + configurable API timeout

Two fixes from PR #888 by @Jah-yee:

1. SessionResetPolicy.from_dict() — data.get('at_hour', 4) returns None
   when the YAML key exists with a null value. Now explicitly checks for
   None and falls back to defaults. Zero remains a valid value.

2. API timeout — hardcoded 900s is now configurable via HERMES_API_TIMEOUT
   env var. Useful for slow local models (llama.cpp) that need longer.

153ccbfd61 fix: strip user: prefix from Discord allowed user IDs in onboarding
Users sometimes paste Discord IDs with prefixes like 'user:123456',
'<@123456>', or '<@!123456>' from Discord's UI or third-party tools.
This caused auth failures since the allowlist contained 'user:123' but
the actual user_id from messages was just '123'.

Fixes:
- Added _clean_discord_id() helper in discord.py to strip common prefixes
- Applied sanitization at runtime when parsing DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS env var
- Applied sanitization in hermes setup and hermes gateway setup input flows

fix: raise session hygiene threshold from 50% to 85%
Session hygiene was firing at the same threshold (50%) as the agent's
own context compressor, causing premature compression on every turn
in long gateway sessions (especially Telegram).

Hygiene is a safety net for pathologically large sessions that would
cause API failures — it should NOT be doing normal compression work.
The agent's own compressor handles that during its tool loop with
accurate real token counts from the API.

Changes:
- Default hygiene threshold: 0.50 → 0.85 (fires only when truly large)
- Hygiene threshold is now independent of compression.threshold config
  (that setting controls the agent's compressor, not the pre-agent safety net)
- Removed env var override for hygiene threshold (CONTEXT_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD
  still controls the agent's own compressor)

fix: sync session_id after mid-run context compression
Critical bug: when the agent's context compressor fires during a tool
loop (_compress_context), it creates a new session_id and writes the
compressed messages there. But the gateway's session_entry still pointed
to the old session_id. On the next message, load_transcript() loaded
the stale pre-compression transcript, causing:

- Context bloat returning every turn
- Repeated compression cycles
- Loss of carefully compressed context

Fix: after run_conversation() returns, check if the agent's session_id
changed (compression split) and sync it back to the session store entry.
Also pass the effective session_id in the result dict so _handle_message
writes transcript entries to the correct session.

This affects ALL gateway adapters, not just webhook.

The old message referenced 'hermes setup' which doesn't handle
skill-specific env vars. Updated to direct users to load the skill
in the local CLI (which triggers the secure prompt) or add the key
to ~/.hermes/.env manually.

ccfbf42844 feat: secure skill env setup on load (core #688)
When a skill declares required_environment_variables in its YAML
frontmatter, missing env vars trigger a secure TUI prompt (identical
to the sudo password widget) when the skill is loaded. Secrets flow
directly to ~/.hermes/.env, never entering LLM context.

Key changes:
- New required_environment_variables frontmatter field for skills
- Secure TUI widget (masked input, 120s timeout)
- Gateway safety: messaging platforms show local setup guidance
- Legacy prerequisites.env_vars normalized into new format
- Remote backend handling: conservative setup_needed=True
- Env var name validation, file permissions hardened to 0o600
- Redact patterns extended for secret-related JSON fields
- 12 existing skills updated with prerequisites declarations
- ~48 new tests covering skip, timeout, gateway, remote backends
- Dynamic panel widget sizing (fixes hardcoded width from original PR)

Cherry-picked from PR #723 by kshitijk4poor, rebased onto current main
with conflict resolution.

Fixes #688

978e1356c0 feat: Slack adapter improvements — formatting, reactions, user resolution, commands
1. Markdown → mrkdwn conversion (format_message override):
   - **bold** → *bold*, *italic* → _italic_
   - ## Headers → *Headers* (bold)
   - [link](url) → <url|link>
   - ~~strike~~ → ~strike~
   - Code blocks and inline code preserved unchanged
   - Placeholder-based approach (same pattern as Telegram)

2. Message length splitting:
   - send() now calls format_message() + truncate_message()
   - Long responses split at natural boundaries (newlines, spaces)
   - Code blocks properly closed/reopened across chunks
   - Chunk indicators (1/N) appended for multi-part messages

3. Reaction-based acknowledgment:
   - 👀 (eyes) reaction added on message receipt
   - Replaced with  (white_check_mark) when response is complete
   - Graceful error handling (missing scopes, already-reacted)
   - Serves as visual feedback since Slack has no bot typing API

4. User identity resolution:
   - Resolves Slack user IDs to display names via users.info API
   - LRU-style in-memory cache (one API call per user)
   - Fallback chain: display_name → real_name → user_id
   - user_name now included in MessageEvent source

5. Expanded slash commands (/hermes <subcommand>):
   - Added: compact, compress, resume, background, usage,
     insights, title, reasoning, provider, rollback
   - Arguments preserved (e.g. /hermes resume my session)

6. reply_broadcast config option:
   - When gateway.slack.reply_broadcast is true, first response
     in a thread also appears in the main channel
   - Disabled by default — thread = session stays clean

30 new tests covering all features.

987410fff3 fix: Slack thread handling — progress messages, responses, and session isolation
Three bugs fixed in the Slack adapter:

1. Tool progress messages leaked to main channel instead of thread.
   Root cause: metadata key mismatch — gateway uses 'thread_id' but
   Slack adapter checked for 'thread_ts'. Added _resolve_thread_ts()
   helper that checks both keys with correct precedence.

2. Bot responses could escape threads for replies.
   Root cause: reply_to was set to the child message's ts, but Slack
   API needs the parent message's ts for thread_ts. Now metadata
   thread_id (always the parent ts) takes priority over reply_to.

3. All Slack DMs shared one session key ('agent:main:slack:dm'),
   so a long-running task blocked all other DM conversations.
   Fix: DMs with thread_id now get per-thread session keys. Top-level
   DMs still share one session for conversation continuity.

Additional fix: All Slack media methods (send_image, send_voice,
send_video, send_document, send_image_file) now accept metadata
parameter for thread routing. Previously they only accepted reply_to,
which caused media to silently fail to post in threads.

Session key behavior after this change:
- Slack channel @mention: creates thread, thread = session
- Slack thread reply: stays in thread, same session
- Slack DM (top-level): one continuous session
- Slack DM (threaded): per-thread session
- Other platforms: unchanged

teknium1
8121aef83c fix: eliminate execute_code progress spam on gateway platforms
Root cause: two issues combined to create visual spam on Telegram/Discord:

1. build_tool_preview() preserved newlines from tool arguments. A preview
   like 'import os\nprint("...")' rendered as 2+ visual lines per
   progress entry on messaging platforms. This affected execute_code most
   (code always has newlines), but could also hit terminal, memory,
   send_message, session_search, and process tools.

2. No deduplication of identical progress messages. When models iterate
   with execute_code using the same boilerplate code (common pattern),
   each call produced an identical progress line. 9 calls x 2 visual
   lines = 18 lines of identical spam in one message bubble.

Fixes:
- Added _oneline() helper to collapse all whitespace (newlines, tabs) to
  single spaces. Applied to ALL code paths in build_tool_preview() —
  both the generic path and every early-return path that touches user
  content (memory, session_search, send_message, process).
- Added dedup in gateway progress_callback: consecutive identical messages
  are collapsed with a repeat counter, e.g. 'execute_code: ... (x9)'
  instead of 9 identical lines. The send_progress_messages async loop
  handles dedup tuples by updating the last progress_line in-place.

chore: lower default compression threshold from 85% to 50% (#1096)
* fix: ClawHub skill install — use /download ZIP endpoint

The ClawHub API v1 version endpoint only returns file metadata
(path, size, sha256, contentType) without inline content or download
URLs. Our code was looking for inline content in the metadata, which
never existed, causing all ClawHub installs to fail with:
'no inline/raw file content was available'

Fix: Use the /api/v1/download endpoint (same as the official clawhub
CLI) to download skills as ZIP bundles and extract files in-memory.

Changes:
- Add _download_zip() method that downloads and extracts ZIP bundles
- Retry on 429 rate limiting with Retry-After header support
- Path sanitization and binary file filtering for security
- Keep _extract_files() as a fallback for inline/raw content
- Also fix nested file lookup (version_data.version.files)

* chore: lower default compression threshold from 85% to 50%

Triggers context compression earlier — at 50% of the model's context
window instead of 85%. Updated in all four places where the default
is defined: context_compressor.py, cli.py, run_agent.py, config.py,
and gateway/run.py.

fix: use session_key instead of chat_id for adapter interrupt lookups
* fix: use session_key instead of chat_id for adapter interrupt lookups

monitor_for_interrupt() in _run_agent was using source.chat_id to query
the adapter's has_pending_interrupt() and get_pending_message() methods.
But the adapter stores interrupt events under build_session_key(source),
which produces a different string (e.g. 'agent:main:telegram:dm' vs '123456').

This key mismatch meant the interrupt was never detected through the
adapter path, which is the only active interrupt path for all adapter-based
platforms (Telegram, Discord, Slack, etc.). The gateway-level interrupt
path (in dispatch_message) is unreachable because the adapter intercepts
the 2nd message in handle_message() before it reaches dispatch_message().

Result: sending a new message while subagents were running had no effect —
the interrupt was silently lost.

Fix: replace all source.chat_id references in the interrupt-related code
within _run_agent() with the session_key parameter, which matches the
adapter's storage keys.

Also adds regression tests verifying session_key vs chat_id consistency.

* debug: add file-based logging to CLI interrupt path

Temporary instrumentation to diagnose why message-based interrupts
don't seem to work during subagent execution. Logs to
~/.hermes/interrupt_debug.log (immune to redirect_stdout).

Two log points:
1. When Enter handler puts message into _interrupt_queue
2. When chat() reads it and calls agent.interrupt()

This will reveal whether the message reaches the queue and
whether the interrupt is actually fired.

feat: add 'View full command' option to dangerous command approval (#887)
When a dangerous command is detected and the user is prompted for
approval, long commands are truncated (80 chars in fallback, 70 chars
in the TUI). Users had no way to see the full command before deciding.

This adds a 'View full command' option across all approval interfaces:

- CLI fallback (tools/approval.py): [v]iew option in the prompt menu.
  Shows the full command and re-prompts for approval decision.
- CLI TUI (cli.py): 'Show full command' choice in the arrow-key
  selection panel. Expands the command display in-place and removes
  the view option after use.
- CLI callbacks (callbacks.py): 'view' choice added to the list when
  the command exceeds 70 characters.
- Gateway (gateway/run.py): 'full', 'show', 'view' responses reveal
  the complete command while keeping the approval pending.

Includes 7 new tests covering view-then-approve, view-then-deny,
short command fallthrough, and double-view behavior.

Closes community feedback about the 80-char cap on dangerous commands.

fix: /reasoning command — add gateway support, fix display, persist settings (#1031)
* fix: /reasoning command output ordering, display, and inline think extraction

Three issues with the /reasoning command:

1. Output interleaving: The command echo used print() while feedback
   used _cprint(), causing them to render out-of-order under
   prompt_toolkit's patch_stdout. Changed echo to use _cprint() so
   all output renders through the same path in correct order.

2. Reasoning display not working: /reasoning show toggled a flag
   but reasoning never appeared for models that embed thinking in
   inline <think> blocks rather than structured API fields. Added
   fallback extraction in _build_assistant_message to capture
   <think> block content as reasoning when no structured reasoning
   fields (reasoning, reasoning_content, reasoning_details) are
   present. This feeds into both the reasoning callback (during
   tool loops) and the post-response reasoning box display.

3. Feedback clarity: Added checkmarks to confirm actions, persisted
   show/hide to config (was session-only before), and aligned the
   status display for readability.

Tests: 7 new tests for inline think block extraction (41 total).

* feat: add /reasoning command to gateway (Telegram/Discord/etc)

The /reasoning command only existed in the CLI — messaging platforms
had no way to view or change reasoning settings. This adds:

1. /reasoning command handler in the gateway:
   - No args: shows current effort level and display state
   - /reasoning <level>: sets reasoning effort (none/low/medium/high/xhigh)
   - /reasoning show|hide: toggles reasoning display in responses
   - All changes saved to config.yaml immediately

2. Reasoning display in gateway responses:
   - When show_reasoning is enabled, prepends a 'Reasoning' block
     with the model's last_reasoning content before the response
   - Collapses long reasoning (>15 lines) to keep messages readable
   - Uses last_reasoning from run_conversation result dict

3. Plumbing:
   - Added _show_reasoning attribute loaded from config at startup
   - Propagated last_reasoning through _run_agent return dict
   - Added /reasoning to help text and known_commands set
   - Uses getattr for _show_reasoning to handle test stubs

9302690e1b refactor: remove LLM_MODEL env var dependency — config.yaml is sole source of truth
Model selection now comes exclusively from config.yaml (set via
'hermes model' or 'hermes setup'). The LLM_MODEL env var is no longer
read or written anywhere in production code.

Why: env vars are per-process/per-user and would conflict in
multi-agent or multi-tenant setups. Config.yaml is file-based and
can be scoped per-user or eventually per-session.

Changes:
- cli.py: Read model from CLI_CONFIG only, not LLM_MODEL/OPENAI_MODEL
- hermes_cli/auth.py: _save_model_choice() no longer writes LLM_MODEL
  to .env
- hermes_cli/setup.py: Remove 12 save_env_value('LLM_MODEL', ...)

- gateway/run.py: Remove LLM_MODEL fallback (HERMES_MODEL still works

58dbd81f03 fix: use actual API token counts for gateway compression pre-check
Root cause of aggressive gateway compression vs CLI:
- CLI: single AIAgent persists across conversation, uses real API-reported
  prompt_tokens for compression decisions — accurate
- Gateway: each message creates fresh AIAgent, token count discarded after,
  next message pre-check falls back to rough str(msg)//4 estimate which
  overestimates 30-50% on tool-heavy conversations

Fix:
- Add last_prompt_tokens field to SessionEntry — stores the actual
  API-reported prompt token count from the most recent agent turn
- After run_conversation(), extract context_compressor.last_prompt_tokens
  and persist it via update_session()
- Gateway pre-check now uses stored actual tokens when available (exact
  same accuracy as CLI), falling back to rough estimate with 1.4x safety
  factor only for the first message of a session

This makes gateway compression behave identically to CLI compression
for all turns after the first. Reported by TigerHix.

67b9470207 fix: reduce premature gateway compression on tool-heavy sessions
The gateway's session hygiene pre-check uses a rough char-based token
estimate (total_chars / 4) to decide whether to compress before the
agent starts. This significantly overestimates for tool-heavy and
code-heavy conversations because:

1. str(msg) on dicts includes Python repr overhead (keys, brackets, etc.)
2. Code/JSON tokenizes at 5-7+ chars/token, not the assumed 4

This caused users with 200k context to see compression trigger at
~100-113k actual tokens instead of the expected 170k (85% threshold).
Reported by TigerHix on Twitter.

Fix: apply a 1.4x safety factor to the gateway pre-check threshold.
This pre-check is only meant to catch pathologically large transcripts
— the agent's own compression uses actual API-reported token counts
for precise threshold management.

Fixes #860.

c1171fe666 fix: eliminate 3x SQLite message duplication in gateway sessions (#860)
Three separate code paths all wrote to the same SQLite state.db with
no deduplication, inflating session transcripts by 3-4x:

1. _log_msg_to_db() — wrote each message individually after append
2. _flush_messages_to_session_db() — re-wrote ALL new messages at
   every _persist_session() call (~18 exit points), with no tracking
   of what was already written
3. gateway append_to_transcript() — wrote everything a third time
   after the agent returned

Since load_transcript() prefers SQLite over JSONL, the inflated data
was loaded on every session resume, causing proportional token waste.

Fix:
- Remove _log_msg_to_db() and all 16 call sites (redundant with flush)
- Add _last_flushed_db_idx tracking in _flush_messages_to_session_db()
  so repeated _persist_session() calls only write truly new messages
- Reset flush cursor on compression (new session ID)
- Add skip_db parameter to SessionStore.append_to_transcript() so the
  gateway skips SQLite writes when the agent already persisted them
- Gateway now passes skip_db=True for agent-managed messages, still
  writes to JSONL as backup

Verified: a 12-message CLI session with tool calls produces exactly
12 SQLite rows with zero duplicates (previously would be 36-48).

Tests: 9 new tests covering flush deduplication, skip_db behavior,
compression reset, and initialization. Full suite passes (2869 tests).

d6ab35c1a3 fix(signal): align send() signature with base class (content, reply_to, metadata)
Signal's send() used 'text' instead of 'content' and 'reply_to_message_id'
instead of 'reply_to', mismatching BasePlatformAdapter.send(). Callers in
gateway/run.py use keyword args matching the base interface, so Signal's

0fdeffe6c4 fix: replace silent exception swallowing with debug logging across tools
Add logger.debug() calls to 27 bare 'except: pass' blocks across 7 core
files, giving visibility into errors that were previously silently
swallowed. This makes it much easier to diagnose user-reported issues
from debug logs.

Files changed:
- tools/terminal_tool.py: 5 catches (stat, termios, fd close, cleanup)
- tools/delegate_tool.py: 7 catches + added logger (spinner, callbacks)
- tools/browser_tool.py: 5 catches (screenshot/recording cleanup, daemon kill)
- tools/code_execution_tool.py: 2 remaining catches (socket, server close)
- gateway/session.py: 2 catches (platform enum parse, temp file cleanup)
- agent/display.py: 2 catches + added logger (JSON parse in failure detect)
- agent/prompt_builder.py: 1 catch (skill description read)

Deliberately kept bare pass for:
- ImportError checks for optional dependencies (terminal_tool.py)
- SystemExit/KeyboardInterrupt handlers
- Spinner _write catch (would spam on every frame when stdout closed)
- process_registry PID-alive check (canonical os.kill(pid,0) pattern)

c1775de56f feat: filesystem checkpoints and /rollback command
Automatic filesystem snapshots before destructive file operations,
with user-facing rollback.  Inspired by PR #559 (by @alireza78a).

Architecture:
- Shadow git repos at ~/.hermes/checkpoints/{hash}/ via GIT_DIR
- CheckpointManager: take/list/restore, turn-scoped dedup, pruning
- Transparent — the LLM never sees it, no tool schema, no tokens
- Once per turn — only first write_file/patch triggers a snapshot

Integration:
- Config: checkpoints.enabled + checkpoints.max_snapshots
- CLI flag: hermes --checkpoints
- Trigger: run_agent.py _execute_tool_calls() before write_file/patch
- /rollback slash command in CLI + gateway (list, restore by number)
- Pre-rollback snapshot auto-created on restore (undo the undo)

Safety:
- Never blocks file operations — all errors silently logged
- Skips root dir, home dir, dirs >50K files
- Disables gracefully when git not installed
- Shadow repo completely isolated from project git

5eaf4a3f32 feat: Telegram send_document and send_video for native file attachments
Implement send_document() and send_video() overrides in TelegramAdapter
so the agent can deliver files (PDFs, CSVs, docs, etc.) and videos as
native Telegram attachments instead of just printing the file path as
text.

The base adapter already routes MEDIA:<path> tags by extension — audio
goes to send_voice(), images to send_image_file(), and everything else
falls through to send_document(). But TelegramAdapter didn't override
send_document() or send_video(), so those fell back to plain text.

Now when the agent includes MEDIA:/path/to/report.pdf in its response,
users get a proper downloadable file attachment in Telegram.

Features:
- send_document: sends files via bot.send_document with display name,
  caption (truncated to 1024), and reply_to support
- send_video: sends videos via bot.send_video with inline playback
- Both fall back to base class text if the Telegram API call fails
- 10 new tests covering success, custom filename, file-not-found,
  not-connected, caption truncation, API error fallback, and reply_to

3b67606c42 fix: custom endpoint provider shows as openrouter in gateway
Three issues caused the gateway to display 'openrouter' instead of
'Custom endpoint' when users configured a custom OAI-compatible endpoint:

1. hermes setup: custom endpoint path saved OPENAI_BASE_URL and
   OPENAI_API_KEY to .env but never wrote model.provider to config.yaml.
   All other providers (Codex, z.ai, Kimi, etc.) call
   _update_config_for_provider() which sets this — custom was the only
   path that skipped it. Now writes model.provider='custom' and
   model.base_url to config.yaml.

2. hermes model: custom endpoint set model.provider='auto' in config.yaml.
   The CLI display had a hack to detect OPENAI_BASE_URL and override to
   'custom', but the gateway didn't. Now sets model.provider='custom'
   directly.

3. gateway /model and /provider commands: defaulted to 'openrouter' and
   read config.yaml — which had no provider set. Added OPENAI_BASE_URL
   detection fallback (same pattern the CLI uses) as a defensive catch
   for existing users who set up before this fix.

67275641f8 fix: unify gateway session hygiene with agent compression config
The gateway had a SEPARATE compression system ('session hygiene')
with hardcoded thresholds (100k tokens / 200 messages) that were
completely disconnected from the model's context length and the
user's compression config in config.yaml. This caused premature
auto-compression on Telegram/Discord — triggering at ~60k tokens
(from the 200-message threshold) or inconsistent token counts.

Changes:
- Gateway hygiene now reads model name from config.yaml and uses
  get_model_context_length() to derive the actual context limit
- Compression threshold comes from compression.threshold in
  config.yaml (default 0.85), same as the agent's ContextCompressor
- Removed the message-count-based trigger (was redundant and caused
  false positives in tool-heavy sessions)
- Removed the undocumented session_hygiene config section — the
  standard compression.* config now controls everything
- Env var overrides (CONTEXT_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD,
  CONTEXT_COMPRESSION_ENABLED) are respected
- Warn threshold is now 95% of model context (was hardcoded 200k)
- Updated tests to verify model-aware thresholds, scaling across
  models, and that message count alone no longer triggers compression

For claude-opus-4.6 (200k context) at 85% threshold: gateway
hygiene now triggers at 170k tokens instead of the old 100k.

Integration gaps fixed (7 files missing Signal):
- cron/scheduler.py: Signal in platform_map (cron delivery was broken)
- agent/prompt_builder.py: PLATFORM_HINTS for Signal (agent knows it's on Signal)
- toolsets.py: hermes-signal toolset + added to hermes-gateway composite

- tools/send_message_tool.py: Signal example in target description
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: Signal in delivery option docs + schema
- gateway/channel_directory.py: Signal in session-based channel discovery

Clawdbot parity features added to signal.py:
- Self-message filtering: prevents reply loops by checking sender != account
- SyncMessage filtering: ignores sync envelopes (sent transcripts, read receipts)
- Edit message support: reads dataMessage from editMessage envelope
- Mention rendering: replaces \uFFFC placeholders with @identifier text
- Jitter in SSE reconnection backoff (20% randomization, prevents thundering herd)

Env var simplification (7 → 4):
- Removed SIGNAL_DM_POLICY (DM auth follows standard platform pattern via
  SIGNAL_ALLOWED_USERS + DM pairing, same as Telegram/Discord)
- Removed SIGNAL_GROUP_POLICY (derived from SIGNAL_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS:
  not set = disabled, set with IDs = allowlist, set with * = open)
- Removed SIGNAL_DEBUG (was setting root logger, removed entirely)
- Remaining: SIGNAL_HTTP_URL, SIGNAL_ACCOUNT (required),
  SIGNAL_ALLOWED_USERS, SIGNAL_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS (optional)

161436cfdd feat: simple fallback model for provider resilience
When the primary model/provider fails after retries (rate limit, overload,
auth errors, connection failures), Hermes automatically switches to a
configured fallback model for the remainder of the session.

Config (in ~/.hermes/config.yaml):

  fallback_model:
    provider: openrouter
    model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4

Supports all major providers: OpenRouter, OpenAI, Nous, DeepSeek, Together,
Groq, Fireworks, Mistral, Gemini — plus custom endpoints via base_url and
api_key_env overrides.

Design principles:
- Dead simple: one fallback model, not a chain
- One-shot: switches once, doesn't ping-pong back
- Zero new dependencies: uses existing OpenAI client
- Minimal code: ~100 lines in run_agent.py, ~5 lines in cli.py/gateway
- Three trigger points: max retries exhausted, non-retryable client errors,
  and invalid response exhaustion

Does NOT trigger on context overflow or payload-too-large errors (those
are handled by the existing compression system).

24f549a692 feat: add Signal messenger gateway platform (#405)
Complete Signal adapter using signal-cli daemon HTTP API.
Based on PR #268 by ibhagwan, rebuilt on current main with bug fixes.

Architecture:
- SSE streaming for inbound messages with exponential backoff (2s→60s)
- JSON-RPC 2.0 for outbound (send, typing, attachments, contacts)
- Health monitor detects stale SSE connections (120s threshold)
- Phone number redaction in all logs and global redact.py

Features:
- DM and group message support with separate access policies
- DM policies: pairing (default), allowlist, open
- Group policies: disabled (default), allowlist, open
- Attachment download with magic-byte type detection
- Typing indicators (8s refresh interval)
- 100MB attachment size limit, 8000 char message limit
- E.164 phone + UUID allowlist support

Integration:
- Platform.SIGNAL enum in gateway/config.py
- Signal in _is_user_authorized() allowlist maps (gateway/run.py)
- Adapter factory in _create_adapter() (gateway/run.py)
- user_id_alt/chat_id_alt fields in SessionSource for UUIDs
- send_message tool support via httpx JSON-RPC (not aiohttp)
- Interactive setup wizard in 'hermes gateway setup'
- Connectivity testing during setup (pings /api/v1/check)
- signal-cli detection and install guidance

Bug fixes from PR #268:
- Timestamp reads from envelope_data (not outer wrapper)
- Uses httpx consistently (not aiohttp in send_message tool)
- SIGNAL_DEBUG scoped to signal logger (not root)
- extract_images regex NOT modified (preserves group numbering)
- pairing.py NOT modified (no cross-platform side effects)
- No dual authorization (adapter defers to run.py for user auth)
- Wildcard uses set membership ('*' in set, not list equality)
- .zip default for PK magic bytes (not .docx)

No new Python dependencies — uses httpx (already core).
External requirement: signal-cli daemon (user-installed).

Tests: 30 new tests covering config, init, helpers, session source,
phone redaction, authorization, and send_message integration.
