Three bugs prevented credential pool rotation from working when multiple
Codex OAuth tokens were configured:
1. credential_pool was dropped during smart model turn routing.
resolve_turn_route() constructed runtime dicts without it, so the
AIAgent was created without pool access. Fixed in smart_model_routing.py
(no-route and fallback paths), cli.py, and gateway/run.py.
2. Eager fallback fired before pool rotation on 429. The rate-limit
handler at line ~7180 switched to a fallback provider immediately,
before _recover_with_credential_pool got a chance to rotate to the
next credential. Now deferred when the pool still has credentials.
3. (Non-issue) Retry budget was reported as too small, but successful
pool rotations already skip retry_count increment — no change needed.
Reported by community member Schinsly who identified all three root
causes and verified the fix locally with multiple Codex accounts.
Follow-up to PR #4305 — .config/gh was added to the write-deny list
but missed from _SENSITIVE_HOME_DIRS, leaving GitHub CLI OAuth tokens
exposed via @file:~/.config/gh/hosts.yml context injection.
- Add gho_, ghu_, ghs_, ghr_ prefix patterns (OAuth, user-to-server,
server-to-server, and refresh tokens) — all four types used by
GitHub Apps and Copilot auth flows were absent from _PREFIX_PATTERNS
- Snapshot HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS at module import time instead of
re-reading os.getenv() on every call, preventing runtime env mutations
(e.g. LLM-generated export commands) from disabling redaction
* feat(auth): add same-provider credential pools and rotation UX
Add same-provider credential pooling so Hermes can rotate across
multiple credentials for a single provider, recover from exhausted
credentials without jumping providers immediately, and configure
that behavior directly in hermes setup.
- agent/credential_pool.py: persisted per-provider credential pools
- hermes auth add/list/remove/reset CLI commands
- 429/402/401 recovery with pool rotation in run_agent.py
- Setup wizard integration for pool strategy configuration
- Auto-seeding from env vars and existing OAuth state

* fix(tests): prevent pool auto-seeding from host env in credential pool tests
Tests for non-pool Anthropic paths and auth remove were failing when
host env vars (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY) or file-backed OAuth credentials
were present. The pool auto-seeding picked these up, causing unexpected
pool entries in tests.
- Mock _select_pool_entry in auxiliary_client OAuth flag tests
- Clear Anthropic env vars and mock _seed_from_singletons in auth remove test
* feat(auth): add thread safety, least_used strategy, and request counting
- Add threading.Lock to CredentialPool for gateway thread safety
(concurrent requests from multiple gateway sessions could race on
pool state mutations without this)
- Add 'least_used' rotation strategy that selects the credential
with the lowest request_count, distributing load more evenly
- Add request_count field to PooledCredential for usage tracking
- Add mark_used() method to increment per-credential request counts
- Wrap select(), mark_exhausted_and_rotate(), and try_refresh_current()
with lock acquisition
- Add tests: least_used selection, mark_used counting, concurrent
thread safety (4 threads × 20 selects with no corruption)
* feat(auth): add interactive mode for bare 'hermes auth' command
When 'hermes auth' is called without a subcommand, it now launches an
interactive wizard that:
1. Shows full credential pool status across all providers
2. Offers a menu: add, remove, reset cooldowns, set strategy
3. For OAuth-capable providers (anthropic, nous, openai-codex), the
add flow explicitly asks 'API key or OAuth login?' — making it
clear that both auth types are supported for the same provider
4. Strategy picker shows all 4 options (fill_first, round_robin,
least_used, random) with the current selection marked
5. Remove flow shows entries with indices for easy selection
The subcommand paths (hermes auth add/list/remove/reset) still work
exactly as before for scripted/non-interactive use.
* fix(tests): update runtime_provider tests for config.yaml source of truth (#4165)
Tests were using OPENAI_BASE_URL env var which is no longer consulted
after #4165. Updated to use model config (provider, base_url, api_key)
which is the new single source of truth for custom endpoint URLs.
* feat(auth): support custom endpoint credential pools keyed by provider name
Custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints all share provider='custom', making
the provider-keyed pool useless. Now pools for custom endpoints are
keyed by 'custom:<normalized_name>' where the name comes from the
custom_providers config list (auto-generated from URL hostname).
- Pool key format: 'custom:together.ai', 'custom:local-(localhost:8080)'
- load_pool('custom:name') seeds from custom_providers api_key AND
model.api_key when base_url matches
- hermes auth add/list now shows custom endpoints alongside registry
providers
- _resolve_openrouter_runtime and _resolve_named_custom_runtime check
pool before falling back to single config key
- 6 new tests covering custom pool keying, seeding, and listing
* docs: add Excalidraw diagram of full credential pool flow
Comprehensive architecture diagram showing:
- Credential sources (env vars, auth.json OAuth, config.yaml, CLI)
- Pool storage and auto-seeding
- Runtime resolution paths (registry, custom, OpenRouter)
- Error recovery (429 retry-then-rotate, 402 immediate, 401 refresh)
- CLI management commands and strategy configuration
Open at: https://excalidraw.com/#json=2Ycqhqpi6f12E_3ITyiwh,c7u9jSt5BwrmiVzHGbm87g
* fix(tests): update setup wizard pool tests for unified select_provider_and_model flow
The setup wizard now delegates to select_provider_and_model() instead
of using its own prompt_choice-based provider picker. Tests needed:
- Mock select_provider_and_model as no-op (provider pre-written to config)
- Call _stub_tts BEFORE custom prompt_choice mock (it overwrites it)
- Pre-write model.provider to config so the pool step is reached
* docs: add comprehensive credential pool documentation
- New page: website/docs/user-guide/features/credential-pools.md
Full guide covering quick start, CLI commands, rotation strategies,
error recovery, custom endpoint pools, auto-discovery, thread safety,
architecture, and storage format.
- Updated fallback-providers.md to reference credential pools as the
first layer of resilience (same-provider rotation before cross-provider)
- Added hermes auth to CLI commands reference with usage examples
- Added credential_pool_strategies to configuration guide
* chore: remove excalidraw diagram from repo (external link only)
* refactor: simplify credential pool code — extract helpers, collapse extras, dedup patterns
- _load_config_safe(): replace 4 identical try/except/import blocks
- _iter_custom_providers(): shared generator for custom provider iteration
- PooledCredential.extra dict: collapse 11 round-trip-only fields
(token_type, scope, client_id, portal_base_url, obtained_at,
expires_in, agent_key_id, agent_key_expires_in, agent_key_reused,
agent_key_obtained_at, tls) into a single extra dict with
__getattr__ for backward-compatible access
- _available_entries(): shared exhaustion-check between select and peek
- Dedup anthropic OAuth seeding (hermes_pkce + claude_code identical)
- SimpleNamespace replaces class _Args boilerplate in auth_commands
- _try_resolve_from_custom_pool(): shared pool-check in runtime_provider
Net -17 lines. All 383 targeted tests pass.

OPENAI_BASE_URL was written to .env AND config.yaml, creating a dual-source
confusion. Users (especially Docker) would see the URL in .env and assume
that's where all config lives, then wonder why LLM_MODEL in .env didn't work.
Changes:
- Remove all 27 save_env_value("OPENAI_BASE_URL", ...) calls across main.py,
setup.py, and tools_config.py
- Remove OPENAI_BASE_URL env var reading from runtime_provider.py, cli.py,
models.py, and gateway/run.py
- Remove LLM_MODEL/HERMES_MODEL env var reading from gateway/run.py and
auxiliary_client.py — config.yaml model.default is authoritative
- Vision base URL now saved to config.yaml auxiliary.vision.base_url
(both setup wizard and tools_config paths)
- Tests updated to set config values instead of env vars
Convention enforced: .env is for SECRETS only (API keys). All other
configuration (model names, base URLs, provider selection) lives
exclusively in config.yaml.
- Add api.fireworks.ai to _URL_TO_PROVIDER for automatic provider detection
- Add fireworks to PROVIDER_TO_MODELS_DEV mapped to 'fireworks-ai' (the
correct models.dev provider key — original PR used 'fireworks' which
would silently fail the lookup)
Cherry-picked from PR #3989 with models.dev key fix.

Claude Code >=2.1.81 checks for a 'scopes' array containing 'user:inference'
in ~/.claude/.credentials.json before accepting stored OAuth tokens as valid.
When Hermes refreshes the token, it writes only accessToken, refreshToken, and
expiresAt — omitting the scopes field. This causes Claude Code to report
'loggedIn: false' and refuse to start, even though the token is valid.
This commit:
- Parses the 'scope' field from the OAuth refresh response
- Passes it to _write_claude_code_credentials() as a keyword argument
- Persists the scopes array in the claudeAiOauth credential store
- Preserves existing scopes when the refresh response omits the field
Tested against Claude Code v2.1.87 on Linux — auth status correctly reports
loggedIn: true and claude --print works after this fix.

* fix: treat non-sk-ant- prefixed keys (Azure AI Foundry) as regular API keys, not OAuth tokens
* fix: treat non-sk-ant- keys as regular API keys, not OAuth tokens
_is_oauth_token() returned True for any key not starting with
sk-ant-api, misclassifying Azure AI Foundry keys as OAuth tokens
and sending Bearer auth instead of x-api-key → 401 rejection.
Real Anthropic OAuth tokens all start with sk-ant-oat (confirmed
from live .credentials.json). Non-sk-ant- keys are third-party
provider keys that should use x-api-key.
Test fixtures updated to use realistic sk-ant-oat01- prefixed
tokens instead of fake strings.

MiniMax's /anthropic endpoints implement Anthropic's Messages API but
require Authorization: Bearer instead of x-api-key. Without this fix,
MiniMax users get 401 errors in gateway sessions.
Adds _requires_bearer_auth() to detect MiniMax endpoints and route
through auth_token in the Anthropic SDK. Check runs before OAuth
token detection so MiniMax keys aren't misclassified as setup tokens.

The auxiliary client's auto-detection chain was a black box — when
compression, summarization, or memory flush failed, the only clue was
a generic 'Request timed out' with no indication of which provider was
tried or why it was skipped.
Now logs at INFO level:
- 'Auxiliary auto-detect: using local/custom (qwen3.5-9b) — skipped:
openrouter, nous' when auto-detection picks a provider
- 'Auxiliary compression: using auto (qwen3.5-9b) at http://localhost:11434/v1'
before each auxiliary call
- 'Auxiliary compression: provider custom unavailable, falling back to
openrouter' on fallback
- Clear warning with actionable guidance when NO provider is available:
'Set OPENROUTER_API_KEY or configure a local model in config.yaml'
Local inference servers (Ollama, llama.cpp, vLLM, LM Studio) don't
require API keys, but the auxiliary client's _resolve_custom_runtime()
rejected endpoints with empty keys — causing the auto-detection chain
to skip the user's local server entirely. This broke compression,
summarization, and memory flush for users running local models without
an OpenRouter/cloud API key.
The main CLI already had this fix (PR #2556, 'no-key-required'
placeholder), but the auxiliary client's resolution path was missed.
Two fixes:
- _resolve_custom_runtime(): use 'no-key-required' placeholder instead
of returning None when base_url is present but key is empty
- resolve_provider_client() custom branch: same placeholder fallback
for explicit_base_url without explicit_api_key
Updates 2 tests that expected the old (broken) behavior.
Tool call previews (paths, commands, queries) were hardcoded to truncate
at 35-40 chars across CLI spinners, completion lines, and gateway progress
messages. Users could not see full file paths in tool output.
New config option: display.tool_preview_length (default 0 = no limit).
Set a positive number to truncate at that length.
Changes:
- display.py: module-level _tool_preview_max_len with getter/setter;
build_tool_preview() and get_cute_tool_message() _trunc/_path respect it
- cli.py: reads config at startup, spinner widget respects config
- gateway/run.py: reads config per-message, progress callback respects config
- run_agent.py: removed redundant 30-char quiet-mode spinner truncation
- config.py: added display.tool_preview_length to DEFAULT_CONFIG

Add skills.external_dirs config option — a list of additional directories
to scan for skills alongside ~/.hermes/skills/. External dirs are read-only:
skill creation/editing always writes to the local dir. Local skills take
precedence when names collide.
This lets users share skills across tools/agents without copying them into
Hermes's own directory (e.g. ~/.agents/skills, /shared/team-skills).
Changes:
- agent/skill_utils.py: add get_external_skills_dirs() and get_all_skills_dirs()
- agent/prompt_builder.py: scan external dirs in build_skills_system_prompt()
- tools/skills_tool.py: _find_all_skills() and skill_view() search external dirs;
security check recognizes configured external dirs as trusted
- agent/skill_commands.py: /skill slash commands discover external skills
- hermes_cli/config.py: add skills.external_dirs to DEFAULT_CONFIG
- cli-config.yaml.example: document the option
- tests/agent/test_external_skills.py: 11 tests covering discovery, precedence,
deduplication, and skill_view for external skills
Requested by community member primco.
Background agent's KawaiiSpinner wrote \r-based animation and stop()
messages through StdoutProxy, colliding with prompt_toolkit's status bar.

hasattr+name check for detecting prompt_toolkit's stdout wrapper
- cli.py: silence bg agent's raw spinner (_print_fn=no-op) and route
thinking updates through the TUI widget only when no foreground
agent is active; clear spinner text in finally block with same guard

Add per-task timeout settings under auxiliary.{task}.timeout in config.yaml
instead of hardcoded values. Users with slow local models (Ollama, llama.cpp)
can now increase timeouts for compression, vision, session search, etc.
Defaults:
- auxiliary.compression.timeout: 120s (was hardcoded 45s)
- auxiliary.vision.timeout: 30s (unchanged)
- all other aux tasks: 30s (was hardcoded 30s)
- title_generator: 30s (was hardcoded 15s)
call_llm/async_call_llm now auto-resolve timeout from config when not
explicitly passed. Callers can still override with an explicit timeout arg.

Cherry-pick of feat/gpt-tool-steering with modifications:
1. Tool-use enforcement prompt (refactored from GPT-specific):
- Renamed GPT_TOOL_USE_GUIDANCE -> TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_GUIDANCE
- Added TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_MODELS tuple: ('gpt', 'codex')
- Injection logic now checks against the tuple instead of hardcoding
'gpt' — adding new model families is a one-line change
- Addresses models describing actions instead of making tool calls
2. Budget warning history stripping:
- _strip_budget_warnings_from_history() strips _budget_warning JSON
keys and [BUDGET WARNING: ...] text from tool results at the start
of run_conversation()
- Prevents old budget warnings from poisoning subsequent turns
Based on PR #3479 by teknium1.
* fix: cap context pressure percentage at 100% in display
The forward-looking token estimate can overshoot the compaction threshold
(e.g. a large tool result pushes it from 70% to 109% in one step). The
progress bar was already capped via min(), but pct_int was not — causing
the user to see '109% to compaction' which is confusing.
Cap pct_int at 100 in both CLI and gateway display functions.
Reported by @JoshExile82.
* refactor: use real API token counts for compression decisions
Replace the rough chars/3 estimation with actual prompt_tokens +
completion_tokens from the API response. The estimation was needed to
predict whether tool results would push context past the threshold, but
the default 50% threshold leaves ample headroom — if tool results push
past it, the next API call reports real usage and triggers compression
then.
This removes all estimation from the compression and context pressure
paths, making both 100% data-driven from provider-reported token counts.
Also removes the dead _msg_count_before_tools variable.
_expand_git_reference() and _rg_files() called subprocess.run()
without a timeout. On a large repository, @diff, @staged, or
@git:N references could hang the agent indefinitely while git
or ripgrep processes slow output.
- Add timeout=30 to git subprocess in _expand_git_reference()
with a user-friendly error message on TimeoutExpired
- Add timeout=10 to rg subprocess in _rg_files() returning
None on timeout (falls back to os.walk folder listing)

Salvage of #3389 by @binhnt92 with reasoning fallback and retry logic added on top.
All 7 auxiliary LLM call sites now use extract_content_or_reasoning() which mirrors the main agent loop's behavior: extract content, strip think blocks, fall back to structured reasoning fields, retry on empty.
Closes#3389.
Show only agentic models that map to OpenRouter defaults:
Qwen/Qwen3.5-397B-A17B ↔ qwen/qwen3.5-plus
Qwen/Qwen3.5-35B-A3B ↔ qwen/qwen3.5-35b-a3b
deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V3.2 ↔ deepseek/deepseek-chat
moonshotai/Kimi-K2.5 ↔ moonshotai/kimi-k2.5
MiniMaxAI/MiniMax-M2.5 ↔ minimax/minimax-m2.5
zai-org/GLM-5 ↔ z-ai/glm-5
XiaomiMiMo/MiMo-V2-Flash ↔ xiaomi/mimo-v2-pro
moonshotai/Kimi-K2-Thinking ↔ moonshotai/kimi-k2-thinking
Users can still pick any HF model via Enter custom model name.
The Anthropic adapter defaulted to max_tokens=16384 when no explicit value
was configured. This severely limits thinking-enabled models where thinking
tokens count toward max_tokens:
- Claude Opus 4.6 supports 128K output but was capped at 16K
- Claude Sonnet 4.6 supports 64K output but was capped at 16K
With extended thinking (adaptive or budget-based), the model could exhaust
the entire 16K on reasoning, leaving zero tokens for the actual response.
This caused two user-visible errors:
- 'Response truncated (finish_reason=length)' — thinking consumed most tokens
- 'Response only contains think block with no content' — thinking consumed all
Fix: add _ANTHROPIC_OUTPUT_LIMITS lookup table (sourced from Anthropic docs
and Cline's model catalog) and use the model's actual output limit as the
default. Unknown future models default to 128K (the current maximum).
Also adds context_length clamping: if the user configured a smaller context
window (e.g. custom endpoint), max_tokens is clamped to context_length - 1
to avoid exceeding the window.

The OpenAI SDK's AsyncHttpxClientWrapper.__del__ schedules aclose() via
asyncio.get_running_loop().create_task(). When an AsyncOpenAI client is
garbage-collected while prompt_toolkit's event loop is running (the common
CLI idle state), the aclose() task runs on prompt_toolkit's loop but the
underlying TCP transport is bound to a different (dead) worker loop.
The transport's self._loop.call_soon() then raises RuntimeError('Event
loop is closed'), which prompt_toolkit surfaces as the disruptive
'Unhandled exception in event loop ... Press ENTER to continue...' error.
Three-layer fix:
1. neuter_async_httpx_del(): Monkey-patches __del__ to a no-op at CLI
startup before any AsyncOpenAI clients are created. Safe because
cached clients are explicitly cleaned via _force_close_async_httpx,
and uncached clients' TCP connections are cleaned by the OS on exit.
2. Custom asyncio exception handler: Installed on prompt_toolkit's event
loop to silently suppress 'Event loop is closed' RuntimeError.
Defense-in-depth for SDK upgrades that might change the class name.
3. cleanup_stale_async_clients(): Called after each agent turn (when the
agent thread joins) to proactively evict cache entries whose event
loop is closed, preventing stale clients from accumulating.
When user messages have empty content (e.g., Discord @mention-only
messages, unrecognized attachments), the Anthropic API rejects the
request with 'user messages must have non-empty content'.
Changes:
- anthropic_adapter.py: Add empty content validation for user messages
(string and list formats), matching the existing pattern for assistant
and tool messages. Empty content gets '(empty message)' placeholder.
- discord.py: Defense-in-depth check at gateway layer to catch empty
messages before they enter session history.
- Add 4 regression tests covering empty string, whitespace-only,
empty list, and empty text block scenarios.
Fixes#3143

_try_anthropic() caught ImportError on the module import (line 667-669)
but not on the build_anthropic_client() call (line 696). When the
anthropic_adapter module imports fine but the anthropic SDK is missing,
build_anthropic_client() raises ImportError at call time. This escaped
_try_anthropic() entirely, killing get_available_vision_backends() and
cascading to 7 test failures:
- 4 setup wizard tests hit unexpected 'Configure vision:' prompt
- 3 codex-auth-as-vision tests failed check_vision_requirements()
The fix wraps the build_anthropic_client call in try/except ImportError,
returning (None, None) when the SDK is unavailable — consistent with the
existing guard at the top of the function.
* fix(gateway): silence flush agent terminal output
quiet_mode=True only suppresses AIAgent init messages.
Tool call output still leaks to the terminal through
_safe_print → _print_fn during session reset/expiry.
Since #2670 injected live memory state into the flush prompt,
the flush agent now reliably calls memory tools — making the
output leak noticeable for the first time.
Set _print_fn to a no-op so the background flush is fully silent.
* test(gateway): add test for flush agent terminal silence + fix dotenv mock
- Add TestFlushAgentSilenced: verifies _print_fn is set to a no-op on
the flush agent so tool output never leaks to the terminal
- Fix pre-existing test failures: replace patch('run_agent.AIAgent')
with sys.modules mock to avoid importing run_agent (requires openai)
- Add autouse _mock_dotenv fixture so all tests in this file run
without the dotenv package installed
* fix(display): route KawaiiSpinner output through print_fn to fully silence flush agent
The previous fix set tmp_agent._print_fn = no-op on the flush agent but
spinner output and quiet-mode cute messages bypassed _print_fn entirely:
- KawaiiSpinner captured sys.stdout at __init__ and wrote directly to it
- quiet-mode tool results used builtin print() instead of _safe_print()
Add optional print_fn parameter to KawaiiSpinner.__init__; _write routes
through it when set. Pass self._print_fn to all spinner construction sites
in run_agent.py and change the quiet-mode cute message print to _safe_print.
The existing gateway fix (tmp_agent._print_fn = lambda) now propagates
correctly through both paths.

* fix(gateway): silence hygiene and compression background agents
Two more background AIAgent instances in the gateway were created with
quiet_mode=True but without _print_fn = no-op, causing tool output to
leak to the terminal:
- _hyg_agent (in-turn hygiene memory agent)
- tmp_agent (_compress_context path)
Apply the same _print_fn no-op pattern used for the flush agent.

Two improvements salvaged from PR #2600 (paraddox):
1. Preflight compression now counts tool schema tokens alongside system
prompt and messages. With 50+ tools enabled, schemas can add 20-30K
tokens that were previously invisible to the estimator, delaying
compression until the API rejected the request.
2. Context probe persistence guard: when the agent steps down context
tiers after a context-length error, only provider-confirmed numeric
limits (parsed from the error message) are cached to disk. Guessed
fallback tiers from get_next_probe_tier() stay in-memory only,
preventing wrong values from polluting the persistent cache.

the api_mode branch that conditionally sets it)
- Replaced 7x getattr(self, '_is_anthropic_oauth', False) with direct
self._is_anthropic_oauth (attribute always initialized now)
- Added _is_openrouter_url() and _is_anthropic_url() helper methods
- Replaced 3 inline 'openrouter' in self._base_url_lower checks
3. Remove dead code in small files
- hermes_cli/claw.py: removed unused 'total' computation
- tools/fuzzy_match.py: removed unused strip_indent() function and
pattern_stripped variable

E2E PTY: banner clean, tool calls work, zero garbled ANSI
The recursive os.walk for AGENTS.md in subdirectories was undesired.
Only load AGENTS.md from the working directory root, matching the
behavior of CLAUDE.md and .cursorrules.
Remove run_hermes_oauth_login(), refresh_hermes_oauth_token(),
read_hermes_oauth_credentials(), _save_hermes_oauth_credentials(),
_generate_pkce(), and associated constants/credential file path.
This code was added in 63e88326 but never wired into any user-facing
flow (setup wizard, hermes model, or any CLI command). Neither
clawdbot/OpenClaw nor opencode implement PKCE for Anthropic — both
use setup-token or API keys. Dead code that was never tested in
production.
Also removes the credential resolution step that checked
~/.hermes/.anthropic_oauth.json (step 3 in resolve_anthropic_token),
renumbering remaining steps.
In gateway mode, async tools (vision_analyze, web_extract, session_search)
deadlock because _run_async() spawns a thread with asyncio.run(), creating
a new event loop, but _get_cached_client() returns an AsyncOpenAI client
bound to a different loop. httpx.AsyncClient cannot work across event loop
boundaries, causing await client.chat.completions.create() to hang forever.
Fix: include the event loop identity in the async client cache key so each
loop gets its own AsyncOpenAI instance. Also fix session_search_tool.py
which had its own broken asyncio.run()-in-thread pattern — now uses the
centralized _run_async() bridge.
frontmatter.get("metadata", {}) returns None (not {}) when the

with AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'.

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

In gateway/Telegram mode, the stdout fd can be closed by executor
thread cleanup. KawaiiSpinner.stop() called isatty() on the closed fd,
raising ValueError and masking the original error.
Instead of a point fix, add a _is_tty property that centralizes the
closed-stream guard — both _animate() and stop() now use it. Follows
the same (ValueError, OSError) pattern already in _write().
Inspired by PR #2632 by bot-deo88.
format_token_count_compact() used unconditional rstrip("0") to clean up
decimal trailing zeros (e.g. "1.50" → "1.5"), but this also stripped
meaningful trailing zeros from whole numbers ("260" → "26", "100" → "1").
Guard the strip behind a decimal-point check.

When the CLI is active, sys.stdout is prompt_toolkit's StdoutProxy which
queues writes and injects newlines around each flush(). This causes every
\r spinner frame to land on its own line instead of overwriting the
previous one, producing visible flickering where the spinner and status
bar repeatedly swap positions.
The CLI already renders spinner state via a dedicated TUI widget
(_spinner_text / get_spinner_text), so KawaiiSpinner's \r-based loop is
redundant under StdoutProxy. Detect the proxy and suppress the animation
entirely — the thread still runs to preserve start()/stop() semantics.
Also removes the 0.4s flush rate-limit workaround that was papering over
the same issue, and cleans up the unused _last_flush_time attribute.
Salvaged from PR #2908 by Mibayy (fixed _raw -> raw detection, dropped

build_skills_system_prompt() was calling _read_skill_conditions() which
re-read each SKILL.md file to extract conditional activation fields.
The frontmatter was already parsed by _parse_skill_file() earlier in
the same loop. Extract conditions inline from the existing frontmatter
dict instead, saving one file read per skill (~80+ on a typical setup).

- threshold: 0.80 → 0.50 (compress at 50%, not 80%)
- target_ratio: 0.40 → 0.20, now relative to threshold not total context
(20% of 50% = 10% of context as tail budget)
- summary ceiling: 32K → 12K (Gemini can't output more than ~12K)
- Updated DEFAULT_CONFIG, config display, example config, and tests
The summary_target_tokens parameter was accepted in the constructor,
stored on the instance, and never used — the summary budget was always
computed from hardcoded module constants (_SUMMARY_RATIO=0.20,
_MAX_SUMMARY_TOKENS=8000). This caused two compounding problems:
1. The config value was silently ignored, giving users no control
over post-compression size.
2. Fixed budgets (20K tail, 8K summary cap) didn't scale with
context window size. Switching from a 1M-context model to a
200K model would trigger compression that nuked 350K tokens
of conversation history down to ~30K.
Changes:
- Replace summary_target_tokens with summary_target_ratio (default 0.40)
which sets the post-compression target as a fraction of context_length.
Tail token budget and summary cap now scale proportionally:
MiniMax 200K → ~80K post-compression
GPT-5 1M → ~400K post-compression
- Change threshold_percent default: 0.50 → 0.80 (don't fire until
80% of context is consumed)
- Change protect_last_n default: 4 → 20 (preserve ~10 full turns)
- Summary token cap scales to 5% of context (was fixed 8K), capped
at 32K ceiling
- Read target_ratio and protect_last_n from config.yaml compression
section (both are now configurable)
- Remove hardcoded summary_target_tokens=500 from run_agent.py
- Add 5 new tests for ratio scaling, clamping, and new defaults
Move OpenRouter to position 1 in the setup wizard's provider list

When AsyncOpenAI clients are garbage-collected after the event loop
closes, their AsyncHttpxClientWrapper.__del__ tries to schedule
aclose() on the dead loop, causing RuntimeError: Event loop is closed.
prompt_toolkit catches this as an unhandled exception and shows
'Press ENTER to continue...' which blocks CLI exit.
Fix: Add shutdown_cached_clients() to auxiliary_client.py that marks
all cached async clients' underlying httpx transport as CLOSED before
GC runs. This prevents __del__ from attempting the aclose() call.
- _force_close_async_httpx(): sets httpx AsyncClient._state to CLOSED
- shutdown_cached_clients(): iterates _client_cache, closes sync clients
normally and marks async clients as closed
- Also fix stale client eviction in _get_cached_client to mark evicted
async clients as closed (was just del-ing them, triggering __del__)
- Call shutdown_cached_clients() from _run_cleanup() in cli.py
The context length resolver was querying the /models endpoint for known
providers like GitHub Copilot, which returns a provider-imposed limit
(128k) instead of the model's actual context window (400k for gpt-5.4).
Since this check happened before the models.dev lookup, the wrong value
won every time.
Fix:
- Add api.githubcopilot.com and models.github.ai to _URL_TO_PROVIDER
- Skip the endpoint metadata probe for known providers — their /models
data is unreliable for context length. models.dev has the correct
per-provider values.
Reported by danny [DUMB] — gpt-5.4 via Copilot was resolving to 128k
instead of the correct 400k from models.dev.
When a non-OpenRouter provider (e.g. minimax, anthropic) is set in
config.yaml but its API key is missing, Hermes silently fell back to
OpenRouter, causing confusing 404 errors.
Now checks if the user explicitly configured a provider before falling
back. Explicit providers raise RuntimeError with a clear message naming
the missing env var. Auto/openrouter/custom providers still fall through
to OpenRouter as before.
Three code paths fixed:
- run_agent.py AIAgent.__init__ — main client initialization
- auxiliary_client.py call_llm — sync auxiliary calls
- auxiliary_client.py call_llm_streaming — async auxiliary calls
Based on PR #2272 by @StefanIsMe. Applied manually to fix a
pconfig NameError in the original and extend to call_llm_streaming.

Recent versions of llama.cpp moved the server properties endpoint from
/props to /v1/props (consistent with the /v1 API prefix convention).
The server-type detection path and the n_ctx reading path both used the
old /props URL, which returns 404 on current builds. This caused the
allocated context window size to fall back to a hardcoded default,
resulting in an incorrect (too small) value being displayed in the TUI
context bar.
Fix: try /v1/props first, fall back to /props for backward compatibility
with older llama.cpp builds. Both paths are now handled gracefully.
Two bugs in the auxiliary provider auto-detection chain:
1. Expired Codex JWT blocks the auto chain: _read_codex_access_token()
returned any stored token without checking expiry, preventing fallback
to working providers. Now decodes JWT exp claim and returns None for
expired tokens.
2. Auxiliary Anthropic client missing OAuth identity transforms:
_AnthropicCompletionsAdapter always called build_anthropic_kwargs with
is_oauth=False, causing 400 errors for OAuth tokens. Now detects OAuth
tokens via _is_oauth_token() and propagates the flag through the
adapter chain.
Cherry-picked from PR #2378 by 0xbyt4. Fixed test_api_key_no_oauth_flag
to mock resolve_anthropic_token directly (env var alone was insufficient).
redact_sensitive_text() now returns early for None and coerces other
non-string values to str before applying regex-based redaction,
preventing TypeErrors in logging/tool-output paths.
Cherry-picked from PR #2369 by aydnOktay.
On the native Anthropic Messages API path, convert_messages_to_anthropic()
moves top-level cache_control on role:tool messages inside the tool_result
block. On OpenRouter (chat_completions), no such conversion happens — the
unexpected top-level field causes a silent hang on the second tool call.
Add native_anthropic parameter to _apply_cache_marker() and
apply_anthropic_cache_control(). When False (OpenRouter), role:tool messages
are skipped entirely. When True (native Anthropic), existing behaviour is
preserved.
Fixes#2362
Only honor config.model.base_url for Anthropic resolution when
config.model.provider is actually "anthropic". This prevents a Codex
(or other provider) base_url from leaking into Anthropic runtime and
auxiliary client paths, which would send requests to the wrong
endpoint.
Closes#2384
Add @file:path, @folder:dir, @diff, @staged, @git:N, and @url:
references that expand inline before the message reaches the LLM.
Supports line ranges (@file:main.py:10-50), token budget enforcement
(soft warn at 25%, hard block at 50%), and path sandboxing for gateway.
Core module from PR #2090 by @kshitijk4poor. CLI and gateway wiring
rewritten against current main. Fixed asyncio.run() crash when called
from inside a running event loop (gateway).
Closes#682.
Two fixes for local model context detection:
1. Hardcoded DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS matching was case-sensitive.
'qwen' didn't match 'Qwen3.5-9B-Q4_K_M.gguf' because of the
capital Q. Now uses model.lower() for comparison.
2. Added compressor initialization logging showing the detected
context_length, threshold, model, provider, and base_url.
This makes turn-1 compression bugs diagnosable from logs —
previously there was no log of what context length was detected.
When using Alibaba (DashScope) with an anthropic-compatible endpoint,
model names like qwen3.5-plus were being normalized to qwen3-5-plus.
Alibaba's API expects the dot. Added preserve_dots parameter to
normalize_model_name() and build_anthropic_kwargs().
Also fixed 401 auth: when provider is alibaba or base_url contains
dashscope/aliyuncs, use only the resolved API key (DASHSCOPE_API_KEY).
Never fall back to resolve_anthropic_token(), and skip Anthropic
credential refresh for DashScope endpoints.
Cherry-picked from PR #1748 by crazywriter1. Fixes#1739.
Six improvements to reduce information loss during context compression,
informed by analysis of Cline, OpenCode, Pi-mono, Codex, and ClawdBot:
1. Structured summary template — sections for Goal, Progress (Done/
In Progress/Blocked), Key Decisions, Relevant Files, Next Steps,
and Critical Context. Forces the summarizer to preserve each
category instead of writing a vague paragraph.
2. Iterative summary updates — on re-compression, the prompt says
'PRESERVE existing info, ADD new progress, UPDATE done/in-progress
status.' Previous summary is stored and fed back to the summarizer
so accumulated context survives across multiple compactions.
3. Token-budget tail protection — instead of fixed protect_last_n=4,
walks backward keeping ~20K tokens of recent context. Adapts to
message density: sessions with big tool results protect fewer
messages, short exchanges protect more. Falls back to protect_last_n
for small conversations.
4. Tool output pruning (pre-pass) — before the expensive LLM summary,
replaces old tool result contents with a placeholder. This is free
(no LLM call) and can save 30%+ of context by itself.
5. Scaled summary budget — instead of fixed 2500 tokens, allocates 20%
of compressed content tokens (clamped to 2000-8000). A 50-turn
conversation gets more summary space than a 10-turn one.
6. Richer summarizer input — tool calls now include arguments (up to
500 chars) and tool results keep up to 3000 chars (was 1500).
The summarizer sees 'terminal(git status) → M src/config.py'
instead of just '[Tool calls: terminal]'.
Previously, all project context files (AGENTS.md, .cursorrules, .hermes.md)
were loaded and concatenated into the system prompt. This bloated the prompt
with potentially redundant or conflicting instructions.
Now only ONE project context type is loaded, using priority order:
1. .hermes.md / HERMES.md (walk to git root)
2. AGENTS.md / agents.md (recursive directory walk)
3. CLAUDE.md / claude.md (cwd only, NEW)
4. .cursorrules / .cursor/rules/*.mdc (cwd only)
SOUL.md from HERMES_HOME remains independent and always loads.
Also adds CLAUDE.md as a recognized context file format, matching the
convention popularized by Claude Code.
Refactored the monolithic function into four focused helpers:
_load_hermes_md, _load_agents_md, _load_claude_md, _load_cursorrules.
Tests: replaced 1 coexistence test with 10 new tests covering priority
ordering, CLAUDE.md loading, case sensitivity, injection blocking.
In Docker/systemd/piped environments, the KawaiiSpinner animation
generates ~500 log lines per tool call. Now checks isatty() and
falls back to clean [tool]/[done] log lines in non-TTY contexts.
Interactive CLI behavior unchanged.
Based on work by 42-evey in PR #2203.
The official international DashScope endpoint uses dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com
(per Alibaba docs), which the substring match on dashscope.aliyuncs.com misses
because of the hyphenated prefix.
If a tool_calls list contains a None entry (from malformed API response,
compression artifact, or corrupt session replay), convert_messages_to_anthropic
crashes with AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'get'.
Skip None and non-dict entries in the tool_calls iteration. Found via
chaos/fuzz testing with mixed valid/invalid tool_call entries.
Custom endpoint users (DashScope/Alibaba, Z.AI, Kimi, DeepSeek, etc.)
get wrong context lengths because their provider resolves as "openrouter"
or "custom", skipping the models.dev lookup entirely. For example,
qwen3.5-plus on DashScope falls to the generic "qwen" hardcoded default
(131K) instead of the correct 1M.
Add _infer_provider_from_url() that maps known API hostnames to their
models.dev provider IDs. When the explicit provider is generic
(openrouter/custom/empty), infer from the base URL before the models.dev
lookup. This resolves context lengths correctly for DashScope, Z.AI,
Kimi, MiniMax, DeepSeek, and Nous endpoints without requiring users to
manually set context_length in config.
Also refactors _is_known_provider_base_url() to use the same URL mapping,
removing the duplicated hostname list.
Cherry-picked from PR #2146 by @crazywriter1. Fixes#2104.
asyncio.run() creates and closes a fresh event loop each call. Cached
httpx/AsyncOpenAI clients bound to the dead loop crash on GC with
'Event loop is closed'. This hit vision_analyze on first use in CLI.
Two-layer fix:
- model_tools._run_async(): replace asyncio.run() with persistent
loop via _get_tool_loop() + run_until_complete()
- auxiliary_client._get_cached_client(): track which loop created
each async client, discard stale entries if loop is closed

1. _strip_provider_prefix: skip Ollama model:tag names (qwen:0.5b)
2. Fuzzy match: remove reverse direction that made claude-sonnet-4
resolve to 1M instead of 200K
3. _has_content_after_think_block: reuse _strip_think_blocks() to
handle all tag variants (thinking, reasoning, REASONING_SCRATCHPAD)
4. models.dev lookup: elif→if so nous provider also queries models.dev
5. Disk cache fallback: use 5-min TTL instead of full hour so network
is retried soon
6. Delegate build: wrap child construction in try/finally so
_last_resolved_tool_names is always restored on exception
Two fixes for Telegram/gateway-specific bugs:
1. Anthropic adapter: strip orphaned tool_result blocks (mirror of
existing tool_use stripping). Context compression or session
truncation can remove an assistant message containing a tool_use
while leaving the subsequent tool_result intact. Anthropic rejects
these with a 400: 'unexpected tool_use_id found in tool_result
blocks'. The adapter now collects all tool_use IDs and filters out
any tool_result blocks referencing IDs not in that set.
2. Gateway: /reset and /new now bypass the running-agent guard (like
/status already does). Previously, sending /reset while an agent
was running caused the raw text to be queued and later fed back as
a user message with the same broken history — replaying the
corrupted session instead of resetting it. Now the running agent is
interrupted, pending messages are cleared, and the reset command
dispatches immediately.
Tests updated: existing tests now include proper tool_use→tool_result
pairs; two new tests cover orphaned tool_result stripping.

Replace the fragile hardcoded context length system with a multi-source
resolution chain that correctly identifies context windows per provider.
Key changes:
- New agent/models_dev.py: Fetches and caches the models.dev registry
(3800+ models across 100+ providers with per-provider context windows).
In-memory cache (1hr TTL) + disk cache for cold starts.
- Rewritten get_model_context_length() resolution chain:
0. Config override (model.context_length)
1. Custom providers per-model context_length
2. Persistent disk cache
3. Endpoint /models (local servers)
4. Anthropic /v1/models API (max_input_tokens, API-key only)
5. OpenRouter live API (existing, unchanged)
6. Nous suffix-match via OpenRouter (dot/dash normalization)
7. models.dev registry lookup (provider-aware)
8. Thin hardcoded defaults (broad family patterns)
9. 128K fallback (was 2M)
- Provider-aware context: same model now correctly resolves to different
context windows per provider (e.g. claude-opus-4.6: 1M on Anthropic,
128K on GitHub Copilot). Provider name flows through ContextCompressor.
- DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS shrunk from 80+ entries to ~16 broad patterns.
models.dev replaces the per-model hardcoding.
- CONTEXT_PROBE_TIERS changed from [2M, 1M, 512K, 200K, 128K, 64K, 32K]
to [128K, 64K, 32K, 16K, 8K]. Unknown models no longer start at 2M.
- hermes model: prompts for context_length when configuring custom
endpoints. Supports shorthand (32k, 128K). Saved to custom_providers
per-model config.
- custom_providers schema extended with optional models dict for
per-model context_length (backward compatible).
- Nous Portal: suffix-matches bare IDs (claude-opus-4-6) against
OpenRouter's prefixed IDs (anthropic/claude-opus-4.6) with dot/dash
normalization. Handles all 15 current Nous models.
- Anthropic direct: queries /v1/models for max_input_tokens. Only works
with regular API keys (sk-ant-api*), not OAuth tokens. Falls through
to models.dev for OAuth users.
Tests: 5574 passed (18 new tests for models_dev + updated probe tiers)

Cron jobs run unattended with no user present. Previously the agent had
send_message and clarify tools available, which makes no sense — the
final response is auto-delivered, and there's nobody to ask questions to.
Changes:
- Disable messaging and clarify toolsets for cron agent sessions
- Update cron platform hint to emphasize autonomous execution: no user
present, cannot ask questions, must execute fully and make decisions
- Update cronjob tool schema description to match (remove stale
send_message guidance)
* fix: preserve Ollama model:tag colons in context length detection
The colon-split logic in get_model_context_length() and
_query_local_context_length() assumed any colon meant provider:model
format (e.g. "local:my-model"). But Ollama uses model:tag format
(e.g. "qwen3.5:27b"), so the split turned "qwen3.5:27b" into just
"27b" — which matches nothing, causing a fallback to the 2M token
probe tier.
Now only recognised provider prefixes (local, openrouter, anthropic,
etc.) are stripped. Ollama model:tag names pass through intact.
* fix: update claude-opus-4-6 and claude-sonnet-4-6 context length from 200K to 1M
Both models support 1,000,000 token context windows. The hardcoded defaults
were set before Anthropic expanded the context for the 4.6 generation.
Verified via models.dev and OpenRouter API data.

Custom endpoints (LM Studio, Ollama, vLLM, llama.cpp) silently fall
back to 2M tokens when /v1/models doesn't include context_length.
Adds _query_local_context_length() which queries server-specific APIs:
- LM Studio: /api/v1/models (max_context_length + loaded instances)
- Ollama: /api/show (model_info + num_ctx parameters)
- llama.cpp: /props (n_ctx from default_generation_settings)
- vLLM: /v1/models/{model} (max_model_len)
Prefers loaded instance context over max (e.g., 122K loaded vs 1M max).
Results are cached via save_context_length() to avoid repeated queries.
Also fixes detect_local_server_type() misidentifying LM Studio as
Ollama (LM Studio returns 200 for /api/tags with an error body).
When LM Studio has a model loaded with a custom context size (e.g.,
122K), prefer that over the model's max_context_length (e.g., 1M).
This makes the TUI status bar show the actual runtime context window.
Instead of defaulting to 2M for unknown local models, query the server
API for the real context length. Supports Ollama (/api/show), vLLM
(max_model_len), and LM Studio (/v1/models). Results are cached to
avoid repeated queries.
Closes#1911
- insights.py: Pre-compute SELECT queries as class constants instead of

- Add 4 tests verifying no injection vectors in SQL query construction.
* fix: detect context length for custom model endpoints via fuzzy matching + config override
Custom model endpoints (non-OpenRouter, non-known-provider) were silently
falling back to 2M tokens when the model name didn't exactly match what the
endpoint's /v1/models reported. This happened because:
1. Endpoint metadata lookup used exact match only — model name mismatches
(e.g. 'qwen3.5:9b' vs 'Qwen3.5-9B-Q4_K_M.gguf') caused a miss
2. Single-model servers (common for local inference) required exact name
match even though only one model was loaded
3. No user escape hatch to manually set context length
Changes:
- Add fuzzy matching for endpoint model metadata: single-model servers
use the only available model regardless of name; multi-model servers
try substring matching in both directions
- Add model.context_length config override (highest priority) so users
can explicitly set their model's context length in config.yaml
- Log an informative message when falling back to 2M probe, telling
users about the config override option
- Thread config_context_length through ContextCompressor and AIAgent init
Tests: 6 new tests covering fuzzy match, single-model fallback, config
override (including zero/None edge cases).
* fix: auto-detect local model name and context length for local servers
Cherry-picked from PR #2043 by sudoingX.
- Auto-detect model name from local server's /v1/models when only one
model is loaded (no manual model name config needed)
- Add n_ctx_train and n_ctx to context length detection keys for llama.cpp
- Query llama.cpp /props endpoint for actual allocated context (not just
training context from GGUF metadata)
- Strip .gguf suffix from display in banner and status bar
- _auto_detect_local_model() in runtime_provider.py for CLI init

After #1675 removed ANTHROPIC_BASE_URL env var support, the Anthropic
provider base URL was hardcoded to https://api.anthropic.com. Now reads
model.base_url from config.yaml as an override, falling back to the
default when not set. Also applies to the auxiliary client.
Cherry-picked from PR #1949 by @rivercrab26.

_align_boundary_backward only checked messages[idx-1] to decide if
the compress-end boundary splits a tool_call/result group. When an
assistant issues 3+ parallel tool calls, their results span multiple
consecutive messages. If the boundary fell in the middle of that group,
the parent assistant was summarized away and orphaned tool results were
silently deleted by _sanitize_tool_pairs.
Now walks backward through all consecutive tool results to find the
parent assistant, then pulls the boundary before the entire group.
6 regression tests added in tests/test_compression_boundary.py.

SOUL.md now loads in slot #1 of the system prompt, replacing the
hardcoded DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY. This lets users fully customize
the agent's identity and personality by editing ~/.hermes/SOUL.md
without it conflicting with the built-in identity text.
When SOUL.md is loaded as identity, it's excluded from the context
files section to avoid appearing twice. When SOUL.md is missing,
empty, unreadable, or skip_context_files is set, the hardcoded
DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY is used as a fallback.
The default SOUL.md (seeded on first run) already contains the full
Hermes personality, so existing installs are unaffected.
