The shutdown banner promised "send any message after restart to resume
where you left off" but the code did the opposite: a drain-timeout
restart skipped the .clean_shutdown marker, which made the next startup
call suspend_recently_active(), which marked the session suspended,
which made get_or_create_session() spawn a fresh session_id with a
'Session automatically reset. Use /resume...' notice — contradicting
the banner.
Introduce a resume_pending state on SessionEntry that is distinct from
suspended. Drain-timeout shutdown flags active sessions resume_pending
instead of letting startup-wide suspension destroy them. The next
message on the same session_key preserves the session_id, reloads the
transcript, and the agent receives a reason-aware restart-resume
system note that subsumes the existing tool-tail auto-continue note
(PR #9934).
Terminal escalation still flows through the existing
.restart_failure_counts stuck-loop counter (PR #7536, threshold 3) —
no parallel counter on SessionEntry. suspended still wins over
resume_pending in get_or_create_session() so genuinely stuck sessions
converge to a clean slate.
Spec: PR #11852 (BrennerSpear). Implementation follows the spec with
the approved correction (reuse .restart_failure_counts rather than
adding a resume_attempts field).
Changes:
- gateway/session.py: SessionEntry.resume_pending/resume_reason/
last_resume_marked_at + to_dict/from_dict; SessionStore
.mark_resume_pending()/clear_resume_pending(); get_or_create_session()
returns existing entry when resume_pending (suspended still wins);
suspend_recently_active() skips resume_pending entries.
- gateway/run.py: _stop_impl() drain-timeout branch marks active
sessions resume_pending before _interrupt_running_agents();
_run_agent() injects reason-aware restart-resume system note that
subsumes the tool-tail case; successful-turn cleanup also clears
resume_pending next to _clear_restart_failure_count();
_notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown() softens the restart banner to
'I'll try to resume where you left off' (honest about stuck-loop
escalation).
- tests/gateway/test_restart_resume_pending.py: 29 new tests covering
SessionEntry roundtrip, mark/clear helpers, get_or_create_session
precedence (suspended > resume_pending), suspend_recently_active
skip, drain-timeout mark reason (restart vs shutdown), system-note
injection decision tree (including tool-tail subsumption), banner
wording, and stuck-loop escalation override.
* feat(steer): /steer <prompt> injects a mid-run note after the next tool call
Adds a new slash command that sits between /queue (turn boundary) and
interrupt. /steer <text> stashes the message on the running agent and
the agent loop appends it to the LAST tool result's content once the
current tool batch finishes. The model sees it as part of the tool
output on its next iteration.
No interrupt is fired, no new user turn is inserted, and no prompt
cache invalidation happens beyond the normal per-turn tool-result
churn. Message-role alternation is preserved — we only modify an
existing role:"tool" message's content.
Wiring
------
- hermes_cli/commands.py: register /steer + add to ACTIVE_SESSION_BYPASS_COMMANDS.
- run_agent.py: add _pending_steer state, AIAgent.steer(), _drain_pending_steer(),
_apply_pending_steer_to_tool_results(); drain at end of both parallel and
sequential tool executors; clear on interrupt; return leftover as
result['pending_steer'] if the agent exits before another tool batch.
- cli.py: /steer handler — route to agent.steer() when running, fall back to
the regular queue otherwise; deliver result['pending_steer'] as next turn.
- gateway/run.py: running-agent intercept calls running_agent.steer(); idle-agent
path strips the prefix and forwards as a regular user message.
- tui_gateway/server.py: new session.steer JSON-RPC method.
- ui-tui: SessionSteerResponse type + local /steer slash command that calls
session.steer when ui.busy, otherwise enqueues for the next turn.
Fallbacks
---------
- Agent exits mid-steer → surfaces in run_conversation result as pending_steer
so CLI/gateway deliver it as the next user turn instead of silently dropping it.
- All tools skipped after interrupt → re-stashes pending_steer for the caller.
- No active agent → /steer reduces to sending the text as a normal message.
Tests
-----
- tests/run_agent/test_steer.py — accept/reject, concatenation, drain,
last-tool-result injection, multimodal list content, thread safety,
cleared-on-interrupt, registry membership, bypass-set membership.
- tests/gateway/test_steer_command.py — running agent, pending sentinel,
missing steer() method, rejected payload, empty payload.
- tests/gateway/test_command_bypass_active_session.py — /steer bypasses
the Level-1 base adapter guard.
- tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py — session.steer RPC paths.
72/72 targeted tests pass under scripts/run_tests.sh.
* feat(steer): register /steer in Discord's native slash tree
Discord's app_commands tree is a curated subset of slash commands (not
derived from COMMAND_REGISTRY like Telegram/Slack). /steer already
works there as plain text (routes through handle_message → base
adapter bypass → runner), but registering it here adds Discord's
native autocomplete + argument hint UI so users can discover and
type it like any other first-class command.
base.py's _keep_typing refresh loop calls send_typing every ~2s while
the agent is processing. If signal-cli returns NETWORK_FAILURE for the
recipient (offline, unroutable, group membership lost), the unmitigated
path was a WARNING log every 2 seconds for as long as the agent stayed
busy — a user report showed 1048 warnings in 41 minutes for one
offline contact, plus the matching volume of pointless RPC traffic to
signal-cli.
- _rpc() accepts log_failures=False so callers can route repeated
expected failures (typing) to DEBUG while keeping send/receive at
WARNING.
- send_typing() tracks consecutive failures per chat. First failure
still logs WARNING so transport issues remain visible; subsequent
failures log at DEBUG. After three consecutive failures we skip the
RPC during an exponential cooldown (16s, 32s, 60s cap) so we stop
hammering signal-cli for a recipient it can't deliver to. A
successful sendTyping resets the counters.
- _stop_typing_indicator() clears the backoff state so the next agent
turn starts fresh.
E2E simulation against the reported 41-minute window: RPCs drop from
1230 to 45 (-96%), log lines from 1048 WARNINGs to 1 WARNING + 44
DEBUGs.
Credits kshitijk4poor (#12056) for the _rpc log_failures kwarg idea;
the broader restructure in that PR (nested per-chat loop inside
send_typing) is avoided here in favour of stateful backoff that
preserves base.py's existing _keep_typing architecture.
When a Telegram /restart fires and PTB's graceful-shutdown `get_updates`
ACK call times out ("When polling for updates is restarted, updates may
be received twice" in gateway.log), the new gateway receives the same
/restart again and restarts a second time — a self-perpetuating loop.
Record the triggering update_id in `.restart_last_processed.json` when
handling /restart. On the next process, reject a /restart whose
update_id <= the recorded one as a stale redelivery. 5-minute staleness
guard so an orphaned marker can't block a legitimately new /restart.
- gateway/platforms/base.py: add `platform_update_id` to MessageEvent
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py: propagate `update.update_id` through
_build_message_event for text/command/location/media handlers
- gateway/run.py: write dedup marker in _handle_restart_command;
_is_stale_restart_redelivery checks it before processing /restart
- tests/gateway/test_restart_redelivery_dedup.py: 9 new tests covering
fresh restart, redelivery, staleness window, cross-platform,
malformed-marker resilience, and no-update_id (CLI) bypass
Only active for Telegram today (the one platform with monotonic
cross-session update ordering); other platforms return False from
_is_stale_restart_redelivery and proceed normally.
Error messages that tell users to install optional extras now use
{sys.executable} -m pip install ... instead of a bare 'pip install
hermes-agent[extra]' string. Under the curl installer, bare 'pip'
resolves to system pip, which either fails with PEP 668
externally-managed-environment or installs into the wrong Python.
Affects: hermes dashboard, hermes web server startup, mcp_serve,
hermes doctor Bedrock check, CLI voice mode, voice_mode tool runtime
error, Discord voice-channel join failure message.
Extend forum support from PR #10145:
- REST path (_send_discord): forum thread creation now uploads media
files as multipart attachments on the starter message in a single
call. Previously media files were silently dropped on the forum
path.
- Websocket media paths (_send_file_attachment, send_voice, send_image,
send_animation — covers send_image_file, send_video, send_document
transitively): forum channels now go through a new _forum_post_file
helper that creates a thread with the file as starter content,
instead of failing via channel.send(file=...) which forums reject.
- _send_to_forum chunk follow-up failures are collected into
raw_response['warnings'] so partial-send outcomes surface.
- Process-local probe cache (_DISCORD_CHANNEL_TYPE_PROBE_CACHE) avoids
GET /channels/{id} on every uncached send after the first.
- Dedup of TestSendDiscordMedia that the PR merge-resolution left
behind.
- Docs: Forum Channels section under website/docs/user-guide/messaging/discord.md.
Tests: 117 passed (22 new for forum+media, probe cache, warnings).
* fix(gateway): detect legacy hermes.service units from pre-rename installs
Older Hermes installs used a different service name (hermes.service) before
the rename to hermes-gateway.service. When both units remain installed, they
fight over the same bot token — after PR #5646's signal-recovery change,
this manifests as a 30-second SIGTERM flap loop between the two services.
Detection is an explicit allowlist (no globbing) plus an ExecStart content
check, so profile units (hermes-gateway-<profile>.service) and unrelated
third-party services named 'hermes' are never matched.
Wired into systemd_install, systemd_status, gateway_setup wizard, and the
main hermes setup flow — anywhere we already warn about scope conflicts now
also warns about legacy units.
* feat(gateway): add migrate-legacy command + install-time removal prompt
- New hermes_cli.gateway.remove_legacy_hermes_units() removes legacy
unit files with stop → disable → unlink → daemon-reload. Handles user
and system scopes separately; system scope returns path list when not
running as root so the caller can tell the user to re-run with sudo.
- New 'hermes gateway migrate-legacy' subcommand (with --dry-run and -y)
routes to remove_legacy_hermes_units via gateway_command dispatch.
- systemd_install now offers to remove legacy units BEFORE installing
the new hermes-gateway.service, preventing the SIGTERM flap loop that
hits users who still have pre-rename hermes.service around.
Profile units (hermes-gateway-<profile>.service) remain untouched in
all paths — the legacy allowlist is explicit (_LEGACY_SERVICE_NAMES)
and the ExecStart content check further narrows matches.
* fix(gateway): mark --replace SIGTERM as planned so target exits 0
PR #5646 made SIGTERM exit the gateway with code 1 so systemd's
Restart=on-failure revives it after unexpected kills. But when a user has
two gateway units fighting for the same bot token (e.g. legacy
hermes.service + hermes-gateway.service from a pre-rename install), the
--replace takeover itself becomes the 'unexpected' SIGTERM — the loser
exits 1, systemd revives it 30s later, and the cycle flaps indefinitely.
Before calling terminate_pid(), --replace now writes a short-lived marker
file naming the target PID + start_time. The target's shutdown_signal_handler
consumes the marker and, when it names this process, leaves
_signal_initiated_shutdown=False so the final exit code stays 0.
Staleness defences:
- PID + start_time combo prevents PID reuse matching an old marker
- Marker older than 60s is treated as stale and discarded
- Marker is unlinked on first read even if it doesn't match this process
- Replacer clears the marker post-loop + on permission-denied give-up
Cherry-picked from #10985 by pedh, adapted to current main:
* Keeps main's full group-chat gating (require_mention + allowed_users +
free_response_chats + mention_patterns) — PR's simpler subset dropped.
* Keeps main's fire-and-forget process() dispatch + session_webhook
fallback for SDK >= 0.24.
* Picks up PR's REQUIRES_EDIT_FINALIZE capability flag on
BasePlatformAdapter + finalize kwarg on edit_message(), plumbed through
stream_consumer. Default False so Telegram/Slack/Discord/Matrix stay
on the zero-overhead fast path.
* DingTalk AI Card lifecycle: per-chat _message_contexts, two-card flow
(tool-progress + final response) with sibling auto-close driven by
reply_to, idempotent 🤔Thinking → 🥳Done swap, $alibabacloud-dingtalk$
for media URL resolution (replaces raw HTTP that was 403-ing).
* pyproject: dingtalk extra now dingtalk-stream>=0.20,<1 +
alibabacloud-dingtalk>=2.0.0 + qrcode.

Follow-up polish on top of the cherry-picked #11023 commit.
- feishu_comment_rules.py: replace import-time "~/.hermes" expanduser fallback
with get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants (canonical, profile-safe).
- tools/feishu_doc_tool.py, tools/feishu_drive_tool.py: drop the
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(asyncio.to_thread(...)) dance.
Tool handlers run synchronously in a worker thread with no running loop, so
the RuntimeError branch was always the one that executed. Calls client.request
directly now. Unused asyncio import removed.
- tests/gateway/test_feishu.py: add register_p2_customized_event to the mock
EventDispatcher builder so the existing adapter test matches the new handler
registration for drive.notice.comment_add_v1.
- scripts/release.py: map liujinkun@bytedance.com -> liujinkun2025 for
contributor attribution on release notes.
- Full comment handler: parse drive.notice.comment_add_v1 events, build
timeline, run agent, deliver reply with chunking support.
- 5 tools: feishu_doc_read, feishu_drive_list_comments,
feishu_drive_list_comment_replies, feishu_drive_reply_comment,
feishu_drive_add_comment.
- 3-tier access control rules (exact doc > wildcard "*" > top-level >
defaults) with per-field fallback. Config via
~/.hermes/feishu_comment_rules.json, mtime-cached hot-reload.
- Self-reply filter using generalized self_open_id (supports future
user-identity subscriptions). Receiver check: only process events
where the bot is the @mentioned target.
- Smart timeline selection, long text chunking, semantic text extraction,
session sharing per document, wiki link resolution.

Follow-up to the cherry-picked contributor fix:
- Extract `_remember_chat_req_id()` and bound it at DEDUP_MAX_SIZE like
`_reply_req_ids` — the unbounded dict would grow forever on a long-
running gateway with many chats.
- Move the cache write to AFTER the group/DM policy check so we don't
cache req_ids from blocked senders.
- Revert the undocumented `is_group` change: the contributor flipped
`chattype == 'group'` to `bool(chatid)`, which wasn't mentioned in
the PR description and weakens the signal (chattype is the explicit
hint; relying on chatid presence assumes DMs never carry it). Keep
the original check.
- Drop the defensive `getattr(self, '_last_chat_req_ids', {})` reads
at both send sites — the attribute is initialized in __init__.
- Update `test_send_uses_passive_reply_stream_...` → `_markdown_...`
to match the new msgtype, and add a new TestWeComZombieSessionFix
class covering device_id presence in subscribe, per-chat req_id
caching + bounding, blocked-sender cache exclusion, and the group
APP_CMD_RESPONSE fallback path.
Follow-up to WideLee's salvaged PR #11582.
Back-compat for QQ_HOME_CHANNEL → QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL rename:
- gateway/config.py reads QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL, falls back to QQ_HOME_CHANNEL
with a one-shot deprecation warning so users on the old name aren't
silently broken.
- cron/scheduler.py: _HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS['qqbot'] now maps to the new
name; _get_home_target_chat_id falls back to the legacy name via a
_LEGACY_HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS table.
- hermes_cli/status.py + hermes_cli/setup.py: honor both names when
displaying or checking for missing home channels.
- hermes_cli/config.py: keep legacy QQ_HOME_CHANNEL[_NAME] in
_EXTRA_ENV_KEYS so .env sanitization still recognizes them.
Scope cleanup:
- Drop qrcode from core dependencies and requirements.txt (remains in
messaging/dingtalk/feishu extras). _qqbot_render_qr already degrades
gracefully when qrcode is missing, printing a 'pip install qrcode' tip
and falling back to URL-only display.
- Restore @staticmethod on QQAdapter._detect_message_type (it doesn't
use self). Revert the test change that was only needed when it was
converted to an instance method.
- Reset uv.lock to origin/main; the PR's stale lock also included
unrelated changes (atroposlib source URL, hermes-agent version bump,
fastapi additions) that don't belong.
Verified E2E:
- Existing user (QQ_HOME_CHANNEL set): gateway + cron both pick up the
legacy name; deprecation warning logs once.
- Fresh user (QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL set): gateway + cron use new name,
no warning.
- Both set: new name wins on both surfaces.
Targeted tests: 296 passed, 4 skipped (qqbot + cron + hermes_cli).
- Re-export _ssrf_redirect_guard from __init__.py
- Fix _parse_json @staticmethod using self._log_tag
- Update test_detect_message_type to call as instance method
- Fix mock.patch path for httpx.AsyncClient in adapter submodule
- Remove @staticmethod from _detect_message_type, _convert_silk_to_wav,
_convert_raw_to_wav, _convert_ffmpeg_to_wav so they can use self._log_tag
- Replace all remaining hardcoded "QQBot" log args with self._log_tag
- Downgrade STT routine flow logs (download, convert, success) from info to debug
- Keep warning level for actual failures (STT failed, ffmpeg error, empty transcript)
Three closely-related fixes for shutdown / lifecycle hygiene.
1. _release_running_agent_state(session_key) helper
----------------------------------------------------
Per-running-agent state lived in three dicts that drifted out of sync
across cleanup sites:
self._running_agents — AIAgent per session_key
self._running_agents_ts — start timestamp per session_key
self._busy_ack_ts — last busy-ack timestamp per session_key
Inventory before this PR:
8 sites: del self._running_agents[key]
— only 1 (stale-eviction) cleaned all three
— 1 cleaned _running_agents + _running_agents_ts only
— 6 cleaned _running_agents only
Each missed entry was a (str, float) tuple per session per gateway
lifetime — small, persistent, accumulates across thousands of
sessions over months. Per-platform leaks compounded.
This change adds a single helper that pops all three dicts in
lockstep, and replaces every bare 'del self._running_agents[key]'
site with it. Per-session state that PERSISTS across turns
(_session_model_overrides, _voice_mode, _pending_approvals,
_update_prompt_pending) is intentionally NOT touched here — those
have their own lifecycles tied to user actions, not turn boundaries.
2. _running_agents_ts cleared in _stop_impl
----------------------------------------
Was being missed alongside _running_agents.clear(); now included.
3. SessionDB close() in _stop_impl
---------------------------------
The SQLite WAL write lock stayed held by the old gateway connection
until Python actually exited — causing 'database is locked' errors
when --replace launched a new gateway against the same file. We
now explicitly close both self._db and self.session_store._db
inside _stop_impl, with try/except so a flaky close on one doesn't
block the other.
Tests
-----
tests/gateway/test_session_state_cleanup.py — 10 cases covering:
* helper pops all three dicts atomically
* idempotent on missing/empty keys
* preserves other sessions
* tolerates older runners without _busy_ack_ts attribute
* thread-safe under concurrent release
* regression guard: scans gateway/run.py and fails if a future
contributor reintroduces 'del self._running_agents[...]'
outside docstrings
* SessionDB close called on both holders during shutdown
* shutdown tolerates missing session_store
* shutdown tolerates close() raising on one db (other still closes)
Broader gateway suite: 3108 passed (vs 3100 on baseline) — failure
delta is +8 net passes; the 10 remaining failures are pre-existing
cross-test pollution / missing optional deps (matrix needs olm,
signal/telegram approval flake, dingtalk Mock wiring), all reproduce
on stashed baseline.
Telegram's MarkdownV2 has no table syntax — pipes get backslash-escaped
and tables render as noisy unaligned text. format_message now detects
GFM-style pipe tables (header row + delimiter row + optional body) and
wraps them in ``` fences before the existing MarkdownV2 conversion runs.
Telegram renders fenced code blocks as monospace preformatted text with
columns intact.
Tables already inside an existing code block are left alone. Plain
prose with pipes, lone '---' horizontal rules, and non-table content
are unaffected.
Closes the recurring community request to stop having to ask the agent
to re-render tables as code blocks manually.
SessionStore._entries grew unbounded. Every unique
(platform, chat_id, thread_id, user_id) tuple ever seen was kept in
RAM and rewritten to sessions.json on every message. A Discord bot
in 100 servers x 100 channels x ~100 rotating users accumulates on
the order of 10^5 entries after a few months; each sessions.json
write becomes an O(n) fsync. Nothing trimmed this — there was no
TTL, no cap, no eviction path.
Changes
-------
* SessionStore.prune_old_entries(max_age_days) — drops entries whose
updated_at is older than the cutoff. Preserves:
- suspended entries (user paused them via /stop for later resume)
- entries with an active background process attached
Pruning is functionally identical to a natural reset-policy expiry:
SQLite transcript stays, session_key -> session_id mapping dropped,
returning user gets a fresh session.
* GatewayConfig.session_store_max_age_days (default 90; 0 disables).
Serialized in to_dict/from_dict, coerced from bad types / negatives
to safe defaults. No migration needed — missing field -> 90 days.
* _session_expiry_watcher calls prune_old_entries once per hour
(first tick is immediate). Uses the existing watcher loop so no
new background task is created.
Why not more aggressive
-----------------------
90 days is long enough that legitimate long-idle users (seasonal,
vacation, etc.) aren't surprised — pruning just means they get a
fresh session on return, same outcome they'd get from any other
reset-policy trigger. Admins can lower it via config; 0 disables.
Tests
-----
tests/gateway/test_session_store_prune.py — 17 cases covering:
* entry age based on updated_at, not created_at
* max_age_days=0 disables; negative coerces to 0
* suspended + active-process entries are skipped
* _save fires iff something was removed
* disk JSON reflects post-prune state
* thread safety against concurrent readers
* config field roundtrips + graceful fallback on bad values
* watcher gate logic (first tick prunes, subsequent within 1h don't)
119 broader session/gateway tests remain green.
- Use certifi CA bundle for aiohttp SSL in qr_login(), start(), and
send_weixin_direct() to fix SSL verification failures against
Tencent's iLink server on macOS (Homebrew OpenSSL lacks system certs)
- Fix QR code data: encode qrcode_img_content (full liteapp URL) instead
of raw hex token — WeChat needs the full URL to resolve the scan
- Render ASCII QR on refresh so the user can re-scan without restarting
- Improve error message on QR render failure to show the actual exception
Tested on macOS (Apple Silicon, Homebrew Python 3.13)
iLink context_token has a limited TTL. When no user message has arrived
for an extended period (e.g. overnight), cron-initiated pushes fail with
errcode -14 (session timeout).
Tested that iLink accepts sends without context_token as a degraded
fallback, so we now automatically strip the expired token and retry
once. This keeps scheduled push messages (weather, digests, etc.)
working reliably without requiring a user message to refresh the
session first.
Changes:
- _send_text_chunk() catches iLinkDeliveryError with session-expired
errcode (-14) and retries without context_token
- Stale tokens are cleared from ContextTokenStore on session expiry
- All 34 existing weixin tests pass
Previously a message like `<@&1490963422786093149> help` would spawn a
thread literally named `<@&1490963422786093149> help`, exposing raw
Discord mention markers in the thread list. Only user mentions
(`<@id>`) were being stripped upstream — role mentions (`<@&id>`) and
channel mentions (`<#id>`) leaked through.
Fix: strip all three mention patterns in `_auto_create_thread` before
building the thread name. Collapse runs of whitespace left by the
removal. If the entire content was mention-only, fall back to 'Hermes'
instead of an empty title.
Fixes#6336.
Tests: two new regression guards in test_discord_slash_commands.py
covering mixed-mention content and mention-only content.
Free-response channels already bypassed the @mention gate so users could
chat inline with the bot, but auto-threading still fired on every
message — spinning off a thread per message and defeating the
lightweight-chat purpose.
Fix: fold `is_free_channel` into `skip_thread` so threading is skipped
whenever the channel is in DISCORD_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS (via env or
discord.free_response_channels in config.yaml).
Net change: one line in _handle_message + one regression test.
Partially addresses #9399. Authored by @Hypn0sis (salvaged from PR #9650;
the bundled 'smart' auto-thread mode from that PR was dropped in favor
of deterministic true/false semantics).
* fix(gateway): bound _agent_cache with LRU cap + idle TTL eviction
The per-session AIAgent cache was unbounded. Each cached AIAgent holds
LLM clients, tool schemas, memory providers, and a conversation buffer.
In a long-lived gateway serving many chats/threads, cached agents
accumulated indefinitely — entries were only evicted on /new, /model,
or session reset.
Changes:
- Cache is now an OrderedDict so we can pop least-recently-used entries.
- _enforce_agent_cache_cap() pops entries beyond _AGENT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=64
when a new agent is inserted. LRU order is refreshed via move_to_end()
on cache hits.
- _sweep_idle_cached_agents() evicts entries whose AIAgent has been idle
longer than _AGENT_CACHE_IDLE_TTL_SECS=3600s. Runs from the existing
_session_expiry_watcher so no new background task is created.
- The expiry watcher now also pops the cache entry after calling
_cleanup_agent_resources on a flushed session — previously the agent
was shut down but its reference stayed in the cache dict.
- Evicted agents have _cleanup_agent_resources() called on a daemon
thread so the cache lock isn't held during slow teardown.
Both tuning constants live at module scope so tests can monkeypatch
them without touching class state.
Tests: 7 new cases in test_agent_cache.py covering LRU eviction,
move_to_end refresh, cleanup thread dispatch, idle TTL sweep,
defensive handling of agents without _last_activity_ts, and plain-dict
test fixture tolerance.
* tweak: bump _AGENT_CACHE_MAX_SIZE 64 -> 128
* fix(gateway): never evict mid-turn agents; live spillover tests
The prior commit could tear down an active agent if its session_key
happened to be LRU when the cap was exceeded. AIAgent.close() kills
process_registry entries for the task, tears down the terminal
sandbox, closes the OpenAI client (sets self.client = None), and
cascades .close() into any active child subagents — all fatal if
the agent is still processing a turn.
Changes:
- _enforce_agent_cache_cap and _sweep_idle_cached_agents now look at
GatewayRunner._running_agents and skip any entry whose AIAgent
instance is present (identity via id(), so MagicMock doesn't
confuse lookup in tests). _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL is treated
as 'not active' since no real agent exists yet.
- Eviction only considers the LRU-excess window (first size-cap
entries). If an excess slot is held by a mid-turn agent, we skip
it WITHOUT compensating by evicting a newer entry. A freshly
inserted session (zero cache history) shouldn't be punished to
protect a long-lived one that happens to be busy.
- Cache may therefore stay transiently over cap when load spikes;
a WARNING is logged so operators can see it, and the next insert
re-runs the check after some turns have finished.
New tests (TestAgentCacheActiveSafety + TestAgentCacheSpilloverLive):
- Active LRU entry is skipped; no newer entry compensated
- Mixed active/idle excess window: only idle slots go
- All-active cache: no eviction, WARNING logged, all clients intact
- _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL doesn't block other evictions
- Idle-TTL sweep skips active agents
- End-to-end: active agent's .client survives eviction attempt
- Live fill-to-cap with real AIAgents, then spillover
- Live: CAP=4 all active + 1 newcomer — cache grows to 5, no teardown
- Live: 8 threads racing 160 inserts into CAP=16 — settles at 16
- Live: evicted session's next turn gets a fresh agent that works
30 tests pass (13 pre-existing + 17 new). Related gateway suites
(model switch, session reset, proxy, etc.) all green.
* fix(gateway): cache eviction preserves per-task state for session resume
The prior commits called AIAgent.close() on cache-evicted agents, which
tears down process_registry entries, terminal sandbox, and browser
daemon for that task_id — permanently. Fine for session-expiry (session
ended), wrong for cache eviction (session may resume).
Real-world scenario: a user leaves a Telegram session open for 2+ hours,
idle TTL evicts the cached AIAgent, user returns and sends a message.
Conversation history is preserved via SessionStore, but their terminal
sandbox (cwd, env vars, bg shells) and browser state were destroyed.
Fix: split the two cleanup modes.
close() Full teardown — session ended. Kills bg procs,
tears down terminal sandbox + browser daemon,
closes LLM client. Used by session-expiry,
/new, /reset (unchanged).
release_clients() Soft cleanup — session may resume. Closes
LLM client only. Leaves process_registry,
terminal sandbox, browser daemon intact
for the resuming agent to inherit via
shared task_id.
Gateway cache eviction (_enforce_agent_cache_cap, _sweep_idle_cached_agents)
now dispatches _release_evicted_agent_soft on the daemon thread instead
of _cleanup_agent_resources. All session-expiry call sites of
_cleanup_agent_resources are unchanged.
Tests (TestAgentCacheIdleResume, 5 new cases):
- release_clients does NOT call process_registry.kill_all
- release_clients does NOT call cleanup_vm / cleanup_browser
- release_clients DOES close the LLM client (agent.client is None after)
- close() vs release_clients() — semantic contract pinned
- Idle-evicted session's rebuild with same session_id gets same task_id
Updated test_cap_triggers_cleanup_thread to assert the soft path fires
and the hard path does NOT.
35 tests pass in test_agent_cache.py; 67 related tests green.
- gateway/platforms/weixin.py:
- Split aiohttp.ClientSession into _poll_session and _send_session
- Add _LIVE_ADAPTERS registry so send_weixin_direct() reuses the connected gateway adapter instead of creating a competing session
- Fixes silent message loss when gateway is running (iLink token contention)
- cron/scheduler.py:
- Support comma-separated deliver values (e.g. 'feishu,weixin') for multi-target delivery
- Delay pconfig/enabled check until standalone fallback so live adapters work even when platform is not in gateway config
- tools/send_message_tool.py:
- Synthesize PlatformConfig from WEIXIN_* env vars when gateway config lacks a weixin entry
- Fall back to WEIXIN_HOME_CHANNEL env var for home channel resolution
- tests/gateway/test_weixin.py:
- Update mocks to include _send_session

Fixes#11463: DingTalk channel receives messages but fails to reply
with 'No session_webhook available'.
Two changes:
1. **Fire-and-forget message processing**: process() now dispatches
_on_message as a background task via asyncio.create_task instead of
awaiting it. This ensures the SDK ACK is returned immediately,
preventing heartbeat timeouts and disconnections when message
processing takes longer than the SDK's ACK deadline.
2. **session_webhook extraction fallback**: If ChatbotMessage.from_dict()
fails to map the sessionWebhook field (possible across SDK versions),
the handler now falls back to extracting it directly from the raw
callback data dict using both 'sessionWebhook' and 'session_webhook'
key variants.
Added 3 tests covering webhook extraction, fallback behavior, and
fire-and-forget ACK timing.
Two follow-ups to the cherry-picked PR #9873 (`e3bcc819`):
1. `_is_allowed_user` now uses `getattr(self, '_allowed_*_ids', set())`
so test fixtures that build the adapter via `object.__new__`
(skipping __init__) don't crash with AttributeError.
See AGENTS.md pitfall #17 — same pattern as gateway.run.
2. New 3-case regression coverage in test_discord_bot_auth_bypass.py:
- role-only config bypasses the gateway 'no allowlists' branch
- roles + users combined still authorizes user-allowlist matches
- the role bypass does NOT leak to other platforms (Telegram, etc.)
3. Autouse fixture in test_discord_bot_auth_bypass.py clears all Discord
auth env vars before each test so DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES leakage from
a previous test in the session can't flip later 'should-reject' tests
into false-pass.
Required because the bare cherry-pick of #9873 only added the adapter-
level role check — it didn't cover the gateway-level _is_user_authorized,
which still rejected role-only setups via the 'no allowlists configured'
branch.
Adds a new DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES environment variable that allows filtering
bot interactions by Discord role ID. Uses OR semantics with the existing
DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS - if a user matches either allowlist, they're permitted.
Changes:
- Parse DISCORD_ALLOWED_ROLES comma-separated role IDs on connect
- Enable members intent when roles are configured (needed for role lookup)
- Update _is_allowed_user() to accept optional author param for direct role check
- Fallback to scanning mutual guilds when author object lacks roles (DMs, voice)
- Fully backwards compatible: no behavior change when env var is unset
Fixes#4466.
Root cause: two sequential authorization gates both independently rejected
bot messages, making DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS completely ineffective.
Gate 1 — `discord.py` `on_message`:
_is_allowed_user ran BEFORE the bot filter, so bot senders were dropped
before the DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS policy was ever evaluated.
Gate 2 — `gateway/run.py` _is_user_authorized:
The gateway-level allowlist check rejected bot IDs with 'Unauthorized
user: <bot_id>' even if they passed Gate 1.
Fix:
gateway/platforms/discord.py — reorder on_message so DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS
runs BEFORE _is_allowed_user. Bots permitted by the filter skip the
user allowlist; non-bots are still checked.
gateway/session.py — add is_bot: bool = False to SessionSource so the
gateway layer can distinguish bot senders.
gateway/platforms/base.py — expose is_bot parameter in build_source.
gateway/platforms/discord.py _handle_message — set is_bot=True when
building the SessionSource for bot authors.
gateway/run.py _is_user_authorized — when source.is_bot is True AND
DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS is 'mentions' or 'all', return True early. Platform
filter already validated the message at on_message; don't re-reject.
Behavior matrix:
| Config | Before | After |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=none (default) | Blocked | Blocked |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=all | Blocked | Allowed |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=mentions + @mention | Blocked | Allowed |
| DISCORD_ALLOW_BOTS=mentions, no mention | Blocked | Blocked |
| Human in DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS | Allowed | Allowed |
| Human NOT in DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS | Blocked | Blocked |

Closes#11321, closes#10259.
## Problem
The nested /skill command group (category subcommand groups + skill
subcommands) serialized to ~14KB with the default 75-skill catalog,
exceeding Discord's ~8000-byte per-command registration payload. The
entire tree.sync() rejected with error 50035 — ALL slash commands
including the 27 base commands failed to register.
## Fix
Replace the nested Group layout with a single flat Command:
/skill name:<autocomplete> args:<optional string>
Autocomplete options are fetched dynamically by Discord when the user
types — they do NOT count against the per-command registration budget.
So this single command registers at ~200 bytes regardless of how many
skills exist. Scales to thousands of skills with no size calculations,
no splitting, no hidden skills.
UX improvements:
- Discord live-filters by user's typed prefix against BOTH name and
description, so '/skill pdf' finds 'ocr-and-documents' via its
description. More discoverable than clicking through category menus.
- Unknown skill name → ephemeral error pointing user at autocomplete.
- Stable alphabetical ordering across restarts.
## Why not the other proposed approaches
Three prior PRs tried to fit within the 8KB limit by modifying the
nested layout:
- #10214 (njiangk): truncated all descriptions to 'Run <name>' and
category descriptions to 'Skills'. Works but destroys slash picker UX.
- #11385 (LeonSGP43): 40-char description clamp + iterative
trim-largest-category fallback. Works but HIDES skills the user can
no longer invoke via slash — functional regression.
- #10261 (zeapsu): adaptive split into /skill-<cat> top-level groups.
Preserves all skills but pollutes the slash namespace with 20
top-level commands.
All three work around the symptom. The flat autocomplete design
dissolves the problem — there is no payload-size pressure to manage.
## Tests
tests/gateway/test_discord_slash_commands.py — 5 new test cases replace
the 3 old nested-structure tests:
- flat-not-nested structure assertion
- empty skills → no command registered
- callback dispatches the right cmd_key by name
- unknown name → ephemeral error, no dispatch
- large-catalog regression guard (500 skills) — command payload stays
under 500 bytes regardless
E2E validated against real discord.py 2.7.1:
- Command registers as discord.app_commands.Command (not Group).
- Autocomplete filters by name AND description (verified across several
queries including description-only matches like 'pdf' → OCR skill).
- 500-skill catalog returns max 25 results per autocomplete query
(Discord's hard cap), filtered correctly.
- Choice labels formatted as 'name — description' clamped to 100 chars.
- feat: support one-click QR scan to create DingTalk bot and establish connection
- fix(gateway): wrap blocking DingTalkStreamClient.start() with asyncio.to_thread()
- fix(gateway): extract message fields from CallbackMessage payload instead of ChatbotMessage
- fix(gateway): add oapi.dingtalk.com to allowed webhook URL domains
- stop rewriting markdown tables, headings, and links before delivery
- keep markdown table blocks and headings together during chunking
- update Weixin tests and docs for native markdown rendering
Closes#10308
The Weixin adapter's send() method previously split and delivered the
raw response text without first extracting MEDIA: tags or bare local
file paths. This meant images, documents, and voice files referenced
by the agent were silently dropped in normal (non-streaming,
non-background) conversations.
Changes:
- In WeixinAdapter.send(), call extract_media() and
extract_local_files() before formatting/splitting text.
- Deliver extracted files via send_image_file(), send_document(),
send_voice(), or send_video() prior to sending text chunks.
- Also fix two minor typing issues in gateway/run.py where
extract_media() tuples were not unpacked correctly in background
and /btw task handlers.
Fixes missing media delivery on Weixin personal accounts.
Three open issues — #8242, #6587, #11345 — all trace to the same root
cause: the image / audio / document download paths in
`DiscordAdapter._handle_message` used plain, unauthenticated HTTP to
fetch `att.url`. That broke in three independent ways:
#8242 cdn.discordapp.com attachment URLs increasingly require the
bot session to download; unauthenticated httpx sees 403
Forbidden, image/voice analysis fail silently.
#6587 Some user environments (VPNs, corporate DNS, tunnels) resolve
cdn.discordapp.com to private-looking IPs. Our is_safe_url()
guard correctly blocks them as SSRF risks, but the user
environment is legitimate — image analysis and voice STT die.
#11345 The document download path skipped is_safe_url() entirely —
raw aiohttp.ClientSession.get(att.url) with no SSRF check,
inconsistent with the image/audio branches.
Unified fix: use `discord.Attachment.read()` as the primary download
path on all three branches. `att.read()` routes through discord.py's
own authenticated HTTPClient, so:
- Discord CDN auth is handled (#8242 resolved).
- Our is_safe_url() gate isn't consulted for the attachment path at
all — the bot session handles networking internally (#6587 resolved).
- All three branches now share the same code path, eliminating the
document-path SSRF gap (#11345 resolved).
Falls back to the existing cache_*_from_url helpers (image/audio) or an
SSRF-gated aiohttp fetch (documents) when `att.read()` is unavailable
or fails — preserves defense-in-depth for any future payload-schema
drift that could slip a non-CDN URL into att.url.
New helpers on DiscordAdapter:
- _read_attachment_bytes(att) — safe att.read() wrapper
- _cache_discord_image(att, ext) — primary + URL fallback
- _cache_discord_audio(att, ext) — primary + URL fallback
- _cache_discord_document(att, ext) — primary + SSRF-gated aiohttp fallback
Tests:
- tests/gateway/test_discord_attachment_download.py — 12 new cases
covering all three helpers: primary path, fallback on missing
.read(), fallback on validator rejection, SSRF guard on document
fallback, aiohttp fallback happy-path, and an E2E case via
_handle_message confirming cache_image_from_url is never invoked
when att.read() succeeds.
- All 11 existing document-handling tests continue to pass via the
aiohttp fallback path (their SimpleNamespace attachments have no
.read(), which triggers the fallback — now SSRF-gated).
Closes#8242, closes#6587, closes#11345.
When a WebSocket-based platform adapter (e.g. QQ Bot) temporarily
loses its connection, send() now polls is_connected for up to 15s
instead of immediately returning a non-retryable failure. If the
auto-reconnect completes within the window, the message is delivered
normally. On timeout, the SendResult is marked retryable=True so the
base class retry mechanism can attempt re-delivery.
Same treatment applied to _send_media().
Adds 4 async tests covering:
- Successful send after simulated reconnection
- Retryable failure on timeout
- Immediate success when already connected
- _send_media reconnection wait
Fixes#11163
DingTalk was the only messaging platform without group-mention gating or a
per-user allowlist. Slack, Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, Matrix, and Mattermost
all support these via config.yaml + matching env vars; this change closes the
gap for DingTalk using the same surface:
Config:
platforms.dingtalk.require_mention: bool (env: DINGTALK_REQUIRE_MENTION)
platforms.dingtalk.mention_patterns: list (env: DINGTALK_MENTION_PATTERNS)
platforms.dingtalk.free_response_chats: list (env: DINGTALK_FREE_RESPONSE_CHATS)
platforms.dingtalk.allowed_users: list (env: DINGTALK_ALLOWED_USERS)
Semantics mirror Telegram's implementation:
- DMs are always accepted (subject to allowed_users).
- Group messages are accepted only when the chat is allowlisted, mention is
not required, the bot was @mentioned (dingtalk_stream sets is_in_at_list),
or the text matches a configured regex wake-word.
- allowed_users matches sender_id / sender_staff_id case-insensitively;
a single "*" disables the check.
Rationale: without this, any DingTalk user in a group chat can trigger the
bot, which makes DingTalk less safe to deploy than the other platforms. A
user's config.yaml already accepts require_mention for dingtalk but the value
was silently ignored.
The send_image_file method in WeixinAdapter used 'path' as parameter
name, but BasePlatformAdapter and gateway callers use 'image_path'.
This mismatch caused image sending to fail when called through the
gateway's extract_media path.
Changed parameter name from 'path' to 'image_path' to match the
interface defined in base.py and the calls in gateway/run.py.
discord.py does not apply a default AllowedMentions to the client, so any
reply whose content contains @everyone/@here or a role mention would ping
the whole server — including verbatim echoes of user input or LLM output
that happens to contain those tokens.
Set a safe default on commands.Bot: everyone=False, roles=False,
users=True, replied_user=True. Operators can opt back in via four
DISCORD_ALLOW_MENTION_* env vars or discord.allow_mentions.* in
config.yaml. No behavior change for normal user/reply pings.

The cherry-picked SDK compat fix (previous commit) wired process() to
parse CallbackMessage.data into a ChatbotMessage, but _extract_text()
was still written against the pre-0.20 payload shape:
* message.text changed from dict {content: ...} → TextContent object.
The old code's str(text) fallback produced 'TextContent(content=...)'
as the agent's input, so every received message came in mangled.
* rich_text moved from message.rich_text (list) to
message.rich_text_content.rich_text_list.
This preserves legacy fallbacks (dict-shaped text, bare rich_text list)
while handling the current SDK layout via hasattr(text, 'content').
Adds regression tests covering:
* webhook domain allowlist (api.*, oapi.*, and hostile lookalikes)
* _IncomingHandler.process is a coroutine function
* _extract_text against TextContent object, dict, rich_text_content,
legacy rich_text, and empty-message cases
Also adds kevinskysunny to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP (release CI
blocks unmapped emails).
Inbound Feishu messages arriving during brief windows when the adapter
loop is unavailable (startup/restart transitions, network-flap reconnect)
were silently dropped with a WARNING log. This matches the symptom in
issue #5499 — and users have reported seeing only a subset of their
messages reach the agent.
Fix: queue pending events in a thread-safe list and spawn a single
drainer thread that replays them once the loop becomes ready. Covers
these scenarios:
* Queue events instead of dropping when loop is None/closed
* Single drainer handles the full queue (not thread-per-event)
* Thread-safe with threading.Lock on the queue and schedule flag
* Handles mid-drain bursts (new events arrive while drainer is working)
* Handles RuntimeError if loop closes between check and submit
* Depth cap (1000) prevents unbounded growth during extended outages
* Drops queue cleanly on disconnect rather than holding forever
* Safety timeout (120s) prevents infinite retention on broken adapters
Based on the approach proposed in #4789 by milkoor, rewritten for
thread-safety and correctness.
Test plan:
* 5 new unit tests (TestPendingInboundQueue) — all passing
* E2E test with real asyncio loop + fake WS thread: 10-event burst
before loop ready → all 10 delivered in order
* E2E concurrent burst test: 20 events queued, 20 more arrive during
drainer dispatch → all 40 delivered, no loss, no duplicates
* All 111 existing feishu tests pass

All 61 TUI-related tests green across 3 consecutive xdist runs.
tests/tui_gateway/test_protocol.py:
- rename `get_messages` → `get_messages_as_conversation` on mock DB (method
was renamed in the real backend, test was still stubbing the old name)
- update tool-message shape expectation: `{role, name, context}` matches
current `_history_to_messages` output, not the legacy `{role, text}`
tests/hermes_cli/test_tui_resume_flow.py:
- `cmd_chat` grew a first-run provider-gate that bailed to "Run: hermes
setup" before `_launch_tui` was ever reached; 3 tests stubbed
`_resolve_last_session` + `_launch_tui` but not the gate
- factored a `main_mod` fixture that stubs `_has_any_provider_configured`,
reused by all three tests
tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py:
- `test_config_set_personality_resets_history_and_returns_info` was flaky
under xdist because the real `_write_config_key` touches
`~/.hermes/config.yaml`, racing with any other worker that writes
config. Stub it in the test.
The Discord voice receive path skipped RFC 3550 §5.1 padding handling,
passing padding-contaminated payloads into DAVE E2EE decrypt and Opus
decode. Symptoms in live VC sessions: deaf inbound speech, intermittent
empty STT results, "corrupted stream" decode errors — especially on the
first reply after join.
When the P bit is set in the RTP header, the last payload byte holds the
count of trailing padding bytes (including itself) that must be removed.
Receive pipeline now follows the spec order:
1. RTP header parse
2. NaCl transport decrypt (aead_xchacha20_poly1305_rtpsize)
3. strip encrypted RTP extension data from start
4. strip RTP padding from end if P bit set ← was missing
5. DAVE inner media decrypt
6. Opus decode
Drops malformed packets where pad_len is 0 or exceeds payload length.
Adds 7 integration tests covering valid padded packets, the X+P combined
case, padding under DAVE passthrough, and three malformed-padding paths.

mautrix auto-registers DecryptionDispatcher when client.crypto is set.
The adapter also registered _on_encrypted_event for the same event type.
_on_encrypted_event had zero awaits and won the race to mark event IDs
in the dedup set, causing _on_room_message to drop successfully decrypted
events from DecryptionDispatcher. The retry loop masked this by re-decrypting
every message ~4 seconds later.
Remove _on_encrypted_event entirely. DecryptionDispatcher handles decryption;
genuinely undecryptable events are logged by mautrix and retried on next
key exchange.

* fix(matrix): re-verify device keys after share_keys() upload
Matrix homeservers treat ed25519 identity keys as immutable per device.
share_keys() can return 200 but silently ignore new keys if the device

shared=True while peers encrypt to the old (unreachable) keys.

* fix(matrix): detect stale OTK conflict on startup and fail closed
When crypto state is wiped but the same device ID is reused, the
homeserver may still hold one-time keys signed with the previous
identity key. Identity key re-upload succeeds but OTK uploads fail
with "already exists" and a signature mismatch. Peers cannot
establish new Olm sessions, so all new messages are undecryptable.
Now proactively flushes OTKs via share_keys() during connect() and
catches the "already exists" error with an actionable log message
telling the operator to purge the device from the homeserver or
generate a fresh device ID.
Also documents the crypto store recovery procedure in the Matrix
setup guide.

Users (Teknium) report missing debug reports before the 1-hour auto-delete
fires. 6 hours gives enough window for async bug-report triage without
leaving sensitive log data on public paste services indefinitely.
Applies to both the CLI (hermes debug share) and gateway (/debug) paths.
Initialize next_channel_prompt before the pending_event check and use
getattr with None default, matching the existing pattern for
next_source/next_message/next_message_id. Prevents AttributeError
when pending_event is None (interrupt path).

config.yaml terminal.cwd is now the single source of truth for working
directory. MESSAGING_CWD and TERMINAL_CWD in .env are deprecated with a
migration warning.
Changes:
1. config.py: Remove MESSAGING_CWD from OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS (setup wizard
no longer prompts for it). Add warn_deprecated_cwd_env_vars() that
prints a migration hint when deprecated env vars are detected.
2. gateway/run.py: Replace all MESSAGING_CWD reads with TERMINAL_CWD
(which is bridged from config.yaml terminal.cwd). MESSAGING_CWD is
still accepted as a backward-compat fallback with deprecation warning.
Config bridge skips cwd placeholder values so they don't clobber
the resolved TERMINAL_CWD.
3. cli.py: Guard against lazy-import clobbering — when cli.py is
imported lazily during gateway runtime (via delegate_tool), don't
let load_cli_config() overwrite an already-resolved TERMINAL_CWD
with os.getcwd() of the service's working directory. (#10817)

When execute_code times out, the result JSON had status="timeout" and an
error field, but the output field was empty. Many models treat empty
output as "nothing happened" and produce an empty/minimal response. The
gateway stream consumer then considers the response "already sent" (from
pre-tool streaming) and silently drops it — leaving the user staring at
silence.
Three changes:
1. Include the timeout message in the output field (both local and remote
paths) so the model always has visible content to relay to the user.
2. Add periodic activity callbacks to the local execution polling loop so
the gateway's inactivity monitor knows execute_code is alive during
long runs.
3. Fix stream_consumer._send_fallback_final to not silently drop content
when the continuation appears empty but the final text differs from
what was previously streamed (e.g. after a tool boundary reset).
When the LLM returns an empty completion, gateway/run.py replaced
final_response with the literal string '(No response generated)'.
This defeated cron/scheduler.py's empty-response skip guard, causing
the placeholder to be delivered to home channels.
Changes:
- gateway/run.py: return empty string instead of placeholder when
there is no error and no response content
- cron/scheduler.py: defensively strip the placeholder text in case
any upstream path still produces it
FixesNousResearch/hermes-agent#9270
The cancellation handler previously promoted any partial send
(already_sent=True) to final_response_sent=True unconditionally.
This meant if intermediate text (e.g. 'Let me search…') was streamed
and the consumer was cancelled before delivering the actual answer,
the gateway's suppression check would still prevent the fallback send.
Now final_response_sent is only set in the cancellation path when:
- The best-effort send of accumulated content actually succeeded, OR
- It was already confirmed before cancellation
Companion fix for PR #11000's run.py changes — closes the
cancellation-path loophole that would otherwise let partial streams
suppress final delivery during queued follow-ups.
All 10 call sites in gateway/run.py and gateway/platforms/api_server.py
are inside async functions where a loop is guaranteed to be running.
get_event_loop() is deprecated since Python 3.10 — it can silently
create a new loop when none is running, masking bugs.
get_running_loop() raises RuntimeError instead, which is safer.
Surfaced during review of PRs #10533 and #10647.

Each top-level Slack DM now gets its own Hermes session, matching the
per-thread behavior channels already have. Previously all top-level DM
messages shared one continuous session because thread_ts was None,
causing context to accumulate across unrelated conversations.
The behavior is controlled by platforms.slack.extra.dm_top_level_threads_as_sessions
in config.yaml (default: true). Set to false to restore legacy behavior.
Based on PR #10789 by helix4u. Changes from original:
- Default flipped to true (was opt-in, now opt-out)
- Removed env var fallback (config.yaml only per project policy)
- Tests updated to cover both default and opt-out paths
Bump connect retry attempts from 3 to 8 and cap exponential backoff at
15 seconds. Old budget: 3 attempts, 1+2+4=7s total — insufficient for
cold boot on slow networks or embedded devices. New budget: 8 attempts,
1+2+4+8+15+15+15=~60s total.
Inspired by PR #5770 by @Bartok9 (re-implemented against current main
since original was 913 commits stale with conflicts).
Three targeted fixes for the 'agent stuck on terminal command' report:
1. **Concurrent tool wait loop now checks interrupts** (run_agent.py)
The sequential path checked _interrupt_requested before each tool call,
but the concurrent path's wait loop just blocked with 30s timeouts.
Now polls every 5s and cancels pending futures on interrupt, giving
already-running tools 3s to notice the per-thread interrupt signal.
2. **Cancelled concurrent tools get proper interrupt messages** (run_agent.py)
When a concurrent tool is cancelled or didn't return a result due to
interrupt, the tool result message says 'skipped due to user interrupt'
instead of a generic error.
3. **Typing indicator fires before follow-up turn** (gateway/run.py)
After an interrupt is acknowledged and the pending message dequeued,
the gateway now sends a typing indicator before starting the recursive
_run_agent call. This gives the user immediate visual feedback that
the system is processing their new message (closing the perceived
'dead air' gap between the interrupt ack and the response).
Reported by @_SushantSays.
Fixes 12 CI test failures:
1. test_cli_new_session (4): _FakeAgent missing commit_memory_session
attribute added in the memory provider refactoring. Added MagicMock.
2. test_run_progress_topics (1): already_sent detection only checked
stream consumer flags, missing the response_previewed path from
interim_assistant_callback. Restructured guard to check both paths.
3. test_timezone (1): HERMES_TIMEZONE leaked into child processes via
_SAFE_ENV_PREFIXES matching HERMES_*. The code correctly converts
it to TZ but didn't remove the original. Added child_env.pop().
4. test_session_env (1): contextvars baseline captured from a different
context couldn't be restored after clear. Changed assertion to verify
the test's value was removed rather than comparing to a fragile baseline.
5. test_discord_slash_commands (5): already fixed on current main.
Gateway executor work now inherits the active session contextvars via
copy_context() so background process watchers retain the correct
platform/chat/user/session metadata for routing completion events back
to the originating chat.
Cherry-picked from #10647 by @helix4u with:
- Use asyncio.get_running_loop() instead of deprecated get_event_loop()
- Strip trailing whitespace
- Add *args forwarding test
- Add exception propagation test
In Telegram forum-enabled groups, the General topic does not include
message_thread_id in incoming messages (it is None). This caused:
1. Messages in General losing thread context — replies went to wrong place
2. Typing indicator failing because thread_id=1 was rejected by Telegram
Fix: synthesize thread_id="1" for forum groups when message_thread_id
is None, then handle it correctly per operation:
- send: omit message_thread_id (Telegram rejects thread_id=1 for sends)
- typing: pass thread_id=1, retry without it on "thread not found"
Also centralizes thread_id extraction into _metadata_thread_id() across
all send methods (send, send_voice, send_image, send_document, send_video,
send_animation, send_photo), replacing ~10 duplicate patterns.

The command preview and description were wrapped in Markdown v1 inline
code (backticks) without escaping, causing Telegram API parse errors
when the command itself contained backticks or asterisks.
Fixes: 'Can't parse entities: can't find end of the entity'
Telegram on iOS auto-converts double hyphens (--) to em dashes (—)
or en dashes (–) via autocorrect. This breaks /model flag parsing
since parse_model_flags() only recognizes literal '--provider' and
'--global'.
When the flag isn't parsed, the entire string (e.g. 'glm-5.1 —provider zai')
gets treated as the model name and fails with 'Model names cannot
contain spaces.'
Fix: normalize Unicode dashes (U+2012-U+2015) to '--' when they
appear before flag keywords (provider, global), before flag extraction.
The existing test suite in test_model_switch_provider_routing.py
already covers all four dash variants — this commit adds the code
that makes them pass.
Replace inline Path.home() / '.hermes' / 'profiles' detection in both CLI
and gateway /profile handlers with the existing get_active_profile_name()
from hermes_cli.profiles — which already handles custom-root deployments,
standard profiles, and Docker layouts.
Fixes /profile incorrectly reporting 'default' when HERMES_HOME points to
a custom-root profile path like /opt/data/profiles/coder.
Based on PR #10484 by Xowiek.
Background review notifications ("💾 Skill created", "💾 Memory updated")
could race ahead of the main assistant reply in chat, making it look like
the agent stopped after creating a skill.
Gate bg-review notifications behind a threading.Event + pending queue.
Register a release callback on the adapter's _post_delivery_callbacks dict
so base.py's finally block fires it after the main response is delivered.
The queued-message path in _run_agent pops and calls the callback directly
to prevent double-fire.
Co-authored-by: Hermes Agent <hermes@nousresearch.com>
Closes#10541
WecomCallbackAdapter declared a _seen_messages dict and
MESSAGE_DEDUP_TTL_SECONDS constant but never actually checked
them in _handle_callback(). WeCom retries callback deliveries
on timeout, and each retry with the same MsgId was treated as
a fresh message and queued for processing.
Fix: check _seen_messages before enqueuing. Uses the same TTL-
based pattern as MessageDeduplicator (fixed in #10306) — check
age before returning duplicate, prune on overflow.
Closes#10305
Extract resolve_channel_prompt() shared helper into
gateway/platforms/base.py. Refactor Discord to use it.
Wire channel_prompts into Telegram (groups + forum topics),
Slack (channels), and Mattermost (channels).
Config bridging now applies to all platforms (not just Discord).
Added channel_prompts defaults to telegram/slack/mattermost
config sections.
Docs added to all four platform pages with platform-specific
examples (topic inheritance for Telegram, channel IDs for Slack,
etc.).
- Remove double str() normalization in _resolve_channel_prompt since
config bridging already handles numeric YAML key conversion
- Remove dead prompts.get(str(key)) fallback that could never match
after keys were already normalized to strings
- Replace getattr(event, "channel_prompt", None) with direct attribute
access since channel_prompt is a declared dataclass field
- Update test to verify normalization responsibility lives in config bridging
_parse_session_key() blindly assigned parts[5] as thread_id for all
chat types. For group sessions with per-user isolation, parts[5] is
a user_id, not a thread_id. This could cause shutdown notifications
to route with incorrect thread metadata.
Only return thread_id for chat types where the 6th element is
unambiguous: dm and thread. For group/channel sessions, omit
thread_id since the suffix may be a user_id.
Based on the approach from PR #9938 by @Ruzzgar.
Commentary messages (interim assistant status updates like "Using browser
tool...") are sent via _send_commentary(), which was incorrectly setting
_already_sent = True on success. This caused the final response to be
suppressed when there were multiple tool calls, because the gateway checks
already_sent to decide whether to skip re-sending the response.
The fix: commentary messages are interim status updates, not the final
response, so _already_sent should not be set when they succeed. This
ensures the final response is always delivered regardless of how many
commentary messages were sent during the turn.
Fixes: #10454
After clear_session_vars() reset contextvars to their default (''),
get_session_env() treated the empty string as falsy and fell through
to os.environ — resurrecting stale HERMES_SESSION_* values from CLI
startup, cron, or previous sessions. This broke session isolation
in the gateway where concurrent messages could see each other's
stale environment values.
Fix: use a sentinel (_UNSET) as the contextvar default instead of ''.
get_session_env() now checks 'value is not _UNSET' instead of
truthiness. Three states are cleanly distinguished:
- _UNSET (never set): fall back to os.environ (CLI/cron compat)
- '' (explicitly cleared): return '' — no os.environ fallback
- 'telegram' (actively set): return the value
clear_session_vars() now uses var.set('') instead of var.reset(token)
to mark vars as explicitly cleared rather than reverting to _UNSET.
Closes#10304
When a model (e.g. mimo-v2-pro) streams intermediate text alongside tool
calls ("Let me search for that") but then returns empty after processing
tool results, the stream consumer already_sent flag is True from the
earlier text delivery. The gateway suppression check
(already_sent=True, failed=False → return None) would swallow the final
response, leaving the user staring at silence after the search.
Two changes:
1. gateway/run.py return path: skip already_sent suppression when the
final_response is "(empty)" or empty — the user needs to know the
agent finished even if streaming sent partial content earlier.
2. gateway/run.py response handler: convert the internal "(empty)"
sentinel to a user-friendly warning instead of delivering the raw
sentinel string.
Tests added for all empty/None/sentinel cases plus preserved existing
suppression behavior for normal non-empty responses.
Discord's _register_slash_commands() had a hardcoded list of ~27 commands
while COMMAND_REGISTRY defines 34+ gateway-available commands. Missing
commands (debug, branch, rollback, snapshot, profile, yolo, fast, reload,
commands) were invisible in Discord's / autocomplete — users couldn't
discover them.
Add a dynamic catch-all loop after the explicit registrations that
iterates COMMAND_REGISTRY, skips already-registered commands, and
auto-registers the rest using discord.app_commands.Command(). Commands
with args_hint get an optional string parameter; parameterless commands
get a simple callback.
This ensures any future commands added to COMMAND_REGISTRY automatically
appear on Discord without needing a manual entry in discord.py.
Telegram and Slack already derive dynamically from COMMAND_REGISTRY
via telegram_bot_commands() and slack_subcommand_map() — no changes
needed there.
- Pastes uploaded by /debug now auto-delete after 1 hour via a detached
background process that sends DELETE to paste.rs
- CLI: shows privacy notice listing what data will be uploaded
- Gateway: only uploads summary report (system info + log tails), NOT
full log files containing conversation content
- Added 'hermes debug delete <url>' for immediate manual deletion
- 16 new tests covering auto-delete scheduling, paste deletion, privacy
notices, and the delete subcommand
Addresses user privacy concern where /debug uploaded full conversation
logs to a public paste service with no warning or expiry.
Two gateway fixes:
1. MessageDeduplicator.is_duplicate() now checks TTL at query time (#10306)
Previously, is_duplicate() returned True for any previously seen ID
without checking its age — expired entries were only purged when cache
size exceeded max_size. On normal workloads that never overflow, message
IDs stayed deduplicated forever instead of expiring after the TTL.
Fix: check `now - timestamp < ttl` before returning True. Expired
entries are removed and treated as new messages.
2. Gateway --config flag now uses yaml.safe_load() (#10216)
The --config CLI flag in gateway/run.py main() used json.load() to
parse config files. YAML is the only documented config format and
every other config loader uses yaml.safe_load(). A YAML config file
passed via --config would crash with json.JSONDecodeError.
Closes#10306Closes#10216
_parse_session_key() now extracts the optional 6th part (thread_id) from
session keys, and _notify_active_sessions_of_shutdown uses _parsed.get()
instead of the removed 'parts' variable. Without this, shutdown notifications
silently failed (NameError caught by try/except) and forum topic routing
was lost.
- Populate watcher_* routing fields for watch-only processes (not just
notify_on_complete), so watch-pattern events carry direct metadata
instead of relying solely on session_key parsing fallback
- Extract _parse_session_key() helper to dedupe session key parsing
at two call sites in gateway/run.py
- Add negative test proving cross-thread leakage doesn't happen
- Add edge-case tests for _build_process_event_source returning None
(empty evt, invalid platform, short session_key)
- Add unit tests for _parse_session_key helper
Three fixes for the duplicate reply bug affecting all gateway platforms:
1. base.py: Suppress stale response when the session was interrupted by a
new message that hasn't been consumed yet. Checks both interrupt_event
and _pending_messages to avoid false positives. (#8221, #2483)
2. run.py (return path): Remove response_previewed guard from already_sent
check. Stream consumer's already_sent alone is authoritative — if
content was delivered via streaming, the duplicate send must be
suppressed regardless of the agent's response_previewed flag. (#8375)
3. run.py (queued-message path): Same fix — already_sent without
response_previewed now correctly marks the first response as already
streamed, preventing re-send before processing the queued message.
The response_previewed field is still produced by the agent (run_agent.py)
but is no longer required as a gate for duplicate suppression. The stream
consumer's already_sent flag is the delivery-level truth about what the
user actually saw.
Concepts from PR #8380 (konsisumer). Closes#8375, #8221, #2483.
Three independent fixes:
1. Reset activity timestamp on cached agent reuse (#9051)
When the gateway reuses a cached AIAgent for a new turn, the
_last_activity_ts from the previous turn (possibly hours ago)
carried over. The inactivity timeout handler immediately saw
the agent as idle for hours and killed it.
Fix: reset _last_activity_ts, _last_activity_desc, and
_api_call_count when retrieving an agent from the cache.
2. Detect uv-managed virtual environments (#8620 sub-issue 1)
The systemd unit generator fell back to sys.executable (uv's
standalone Python) when running under 'uv run', because
sys.prefix == sys.base_prefix (uv doesn't set up traditional
venv activation). The generated ExecStart pointed to a Python
binary without site-packages, crashing the service on startup.
Fix: check VIRTUAL_ENV env var before falling back to
sys.executable. uv sets VIRTUAL_ENV even when sys.prefix
doesn't reflect the venv.
3. Nudge model to continue after empty post-tool response (#9400)
Weaker models (GLM-5, mimo-v2-pro) sometimes return empty
responses after tool calls instead of continuing to the next
step. The agent silently abandoned the remaining work with
'(empty)' or used prior-turn fallback text.
Fix: when the model returns empty after tool calls AND there's
no prior-turn content to fall back on, inject a one-time user
nudge message telling the model to process the tool results and
continue. The flag resets after each successful tool round so it
can fire again on later rounds.
Test plan: 97 gateway + CLI tests pass, 9 venv detection tests pass
When a user sends a message while the agent is executing a task on the
gateway, the agent is now interrupted immediately — not silently queued.
Previously, messages were stored in _pending_messages with zero feedback
to the user, potentially leaving them waiting 1+ hours.
Root cause: Level 1 guard (base.py) intercepted all messages for active
sessions and returned with no response. Level 2 (gateway/run.py) which
calls agent.interrupt() was never reached.
Fix: Expand _handle_active_session_busy_message to handle the normal
(non-draining) case:
1. Call running_agent.interrupt(text) to abort in-flight tool calls
and exit the agent loop at the next check point
2. Store the message as pending so it becomes the next turn once the
interrupted run returns
3. Send a brief ack: 'Interrupting current task (10 min elapsed,
iteration 21/60, running: terminal). I'll respond shortly.'
4. Debounce acks to once per 30s to avoid spam on rapid messages
Reported by @Lonely__MH.
When compression fails after max attempts, the agent returns
{completed: False, partial: True} but was missing the 'failed' flag.
The gateway's agent_failed_early guard checked for 'failed' AND
'not final_response', but _run_agent_blocking always converts errors
to final_response — making the guard dead code. This caused the
oversized session to persist, creating an infinite fail loop where
every subsequent message hits the same compression failure.
Changes:
- run_agent.py: add 'failed: True' and 'compression_exhausted: True'
to all 5 compression-exhaustion return paths
- gateway/run.py (_run_agent_blocking): forward 'failed' and
'compression_exhausted' flags through to the caller
- gateway/run.py (_handle_message_with_agent): fix agent_failed_early
to check bool(failed) without the broken 'not final_response' clause;
auto-reset the session when compression is exhausted so the next
message starts fresh
- Update tests to match new guard logic and add
TestCompressionExhaustedFlag test class
Closes#9893
The /v1/responses endpoint generated a new UUID session_id for every
request, even when previous_response_id was provided. This caused each
turn of a multi-turn conversation to appear as a separate session on the
web dashboard, despite the conversation history being correctly chained.
Fix: store session_id alongside the response in the ResponseStore, and
reuse it when a subsequent request chains via previous_response_id.
Applies to both the non-streaming /v1/responses path and the streaming
SSE path. The /v1/runs endpoint also gains session continuity from
stored responses (explicit body.session_id still takes priority).
Adds test verifying session_id is preserved across chained requests.
* fix: hermes gateway restart waits for service to come back up (#8260)
Previously, systemd_restart() sent SIGUSR1 to the gateway, printed
'restart requested', and returned immediately. The gateway still
needed to drain active agents, exit with code 75, wait for systemd's
RestartSec=30, and start the new process. The user saw 'success' but
the gateway was actually down for 30-60 seconds.
Now the SIGUSR1 path blocks with progress feedback:
Phase 1 — wait for old process to die:
⏳ User service draining active work...
Polls os.kill(pid, 0) until ProcessLookupError (up to 90s)
Phase 2 — wait for new process to become active:
⏳ Waiting for hermes-gateway to restart...
Polls systemctl is-active + verifies new PID (up to 60s)
Success:
✓ User service restarted (PID 12345)
Timeout:
⚠ User service did not become active within 60s.
Check status: hermes gateway status
Check logs: journalctl --user -u hermes-gateway --since '2 min ago'
The reload-or-restart fallback path (line 1189) already blocks because
systemctl reload-or-restart is synchronous.
Test plan:
- Updated test to verify wait-for-restart behavior
- All 118 gateway CLI tests pass
* fix: add 402 billing error hint to gateway error handler (#5220)
The gateway's exception handler for agent errors had specific hints for
HTTP 401, 429, 529, 400, 500 — but not 402 (Payment Required / quota
exhausted). Users hitting billing limits from custom proxy providers
got a generic error with no guidance.
Added: 'Your API balance or quota is exhausted. Check your provider
dashboard.'
The underlying billing classification (error_classifier.py) already
correctly handles 402 as FailoverReason.billing with credential
rotation and fallback. The original issue (#5220) where 402 killed
the entire gateway was from an older version — on current main, 402
is excluded from the is_client_error abort path (line 9460) and goes
through the proper retry/fallback/fail flow. Combined with PR #9875
(auto-recover from unexpected SIGTERM), even edge cases where the
gateway dies are now survivable.
The streaming path emits output as content-part arrays for Open WebUI
compatibility, but the batch (non-streaming) Responses API path must
return output as a plain string per the OpenAI Responses API spec.
Reverts the _extract_output_items change from the cherry-picked commits
while preserving the streaming path's array format.
When a session gets stuck (hung terminal, runaway tool loop) and the
user restarts the gateway, the same session history loads and puts the
agent right back in the stuck state. The user is trapped in a loop:
restart → stuck → restart → stuck.
Fix: track restart-failure counts per session using a simple JSON file
(.restart_failure_counts). On each shutdown with active agents, the
counter increments for those sessions. On startup, if any session has
been active across 3+ consecutive restarts, it's auto-suspended —
giving the user a clean slate on their next message.
The counter resets to 0 when a session completes a turn successfully
(response delivered), so normal sessions that happen to be active
during planned restarts (/restart, hermes update) won't accumulate
false counts.
Implementation:
- _increment_restart_failure_counts(): called during stop() when
agents are active. Writes {session_key: count} to JSON file.
Sessions NOT active are dropped (loop broken).
- _suspend_stuck_loop_sessions(): called on startup. Reads the file,
suspends sessions at threshold (3), clears the file.
- _clear_restart_failure_count(): called after successful response
delivery. Removes the session from the counter file.
No SessionEntry schema changes. No database migration. Pure file-based
tracking that naturally cleans up.
Test plan:
- 9 new stuck-loop tests (increment, accumulate, threshold, clear,
suspend, file cleanup, edge cases)
- All 28 gateway lifecycle tests pass (restart drain + auto-continue
+ stuck loop)
When the gateway restarts mid-agent-work, the session transcript ends
on a tool result the agent never processed. Previously, the user had
to type 'continue' or use /retry (which replays from scratch, losing
all prior work).
Now, when the next user message arrives and the loaded history ends
with role='tool', a system note is prepended:
[System note: Your previous turn was interrupted before you could
process the last tool result(s). Please finish processing those
results and summarize what was accomplished, then address the
user's new message below.]
This is injected in _run_agent()'s run_sync closure, right before
calling agent.run_conversation(). The agent sees the full history
(including the pending tool results) and the system note, so it can
summarize what was accomplished and then handle the user's new input.
Design decisions:
- No new session flags or schema changes — purely detects trailing
tool messages in the loaded history
- Works for any restart scenario (clean, crash, SIGTERM, drain timeout)
as long as the session wasn't suspended (suspended = fresh start)
- The user's actual message is preserved after the note
- If the session WAS suspended (unclean shutdown), the old history is
abandoned and the user starts fresh — no false auto-continue
Also updates the shutdown notification message from 'Use /retry after
restart to continue' to 'Send any message after restart to resume
where it left off' — which is now accurate.
Test plan:
- 6 new auto-continue tests (trailing tool detection, no false
positives for assistant/user/empty history, multi-tool, message
preservation)
- All 13 restart drain tests pass (updated /retry assertion)
Instead of consuming one top-level slash command slot per skill (hitting the
100-command limit with ~26 built-ins + 74 skills), skills are now organized
under a single /skill group command with category-based subcommand groups:
/skill creative ascii-art [args]
/skill media gif-search [args]
/skill mlops axolotl [args]
Discord supports 25 subcommand groups × 25 subcommands = 625 max skills,
well beyond the previous 74-slot ceiling.
Categories are derived from the skill directory structure:
- skills/creative/ascii-art/ → category 'creative'
- skills/mlops/training/axolotl/ → category 'mlops' (top-level parent)
- skills/dogfood/ → uncategorized (direct subcommand)
Changes:
- hermes_cli/commands.py: add discord_skill_commands_by_category() with
category grouping, hub/disabled filtering, Discord limit enforcement
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: replace top-level skill registration with
_register_skill_group() using app_commands.Group hierarchy
- tests: 7 new tests covering group creation, category grouping,
uncategorized skills, hub exclusion, deep nesting, empty skills,
and handler dispatch
Inspired by Discord community suggestion from bottium.
When the gateway receives SIGTERM/SIGINT, the shutdown handler now
runs 'ps aux' and logs every hermes/gateway-related process (excluding
itself). This will show in agent.log as:
WARNING: Shutdown diagnostic — other hermes processes running:
hermes 1234 ... hermes update --gateway
hermes 5678 ... hermes gateway restart
This is the missing diagnostic for #5646 / #6666 — we can prove
the restarts are from systemctl but can't determine WHO issues the
systemctl command. Next time it happens, the agent.log will contain
the evidence (the process that sent the signal or called systemctl
should still be alive when the handler fires).
The dashboard's gateway status detection relied solely on local PID checks
(os.kill + /proc), which fails when the gateway runs in a separate container.
Changes:
- web_server.py: Add _probe_gateway_health() that queries the gateway's HTTP
/health/detailed endpoint when the local PID check fails. Activated by
setting the GATEWAY_HEALTH_URL env var (e.g. http://gateway:8642/health).
Falls back to standard PID check when the env var is not set.
- api_server.py: Add GET /health/detailed endpoint that returns full gateway
state (platforms, gateway_state, active_agents, pid, etc.) without auth.
The existing GET /health remains unchanged for backwards compatibility.
- StatusPage.tsx: Handle the case where gateway_pid is null but the gateway
is running remotely, displaying 'Running (remote)' instead of 'PID null'.
Environment variables:
- GATEWAY_HEALTH_URL: URL of the gateway health endpoint (e.g.
http://gateway-container:8642/health). Unset = local PID check only.
- GATEWAY_HEALTH_TIMEOUT: Probe timeout in seconds (default: 3).
Root cause: when the gateway received SIGTERM (from hermes update,
external kill, WSL2 runtime, etc.), it exited with status 0. systemd's
Restart=on-failure only restarts on non-zero exit, so the gateway
stayed dead permanently. Users had to manually restart.
Fix 1: Signal-initiated shutdown exits non-zero
When SIGTERM/SIGINT is received and no restart was requested (via
/restart, /update, or SIGUSR1), start_gateway() returns False which
causes sys.exit(1). systemd sees a failure exit and auto-restarts
after RestartSec=30.
This is safe because systemctl stop tracks its own stop-requested
state independently of exit code — Restart= never fires for a
deliberate stop, regardless of exit code.
Also logs 'Received SIGTERM/SIGINT — initiating shutdown' so the
cause of unexpected shutdowns is visible in agent.log.
Fix 2: PID file ownership guard
remove_pid_file() now checks that the PID file belongs to the current
process before removing it. During --replace handoffs, the old
process's atexit handler could fire AFTER the new process wrote its
PID file, deleting the new record. This left the gateway running but
invisible to get_running_pid(), causing 'Another gateway already
running' errors on next restart.
Test plan:
- All restart drain tests pass (13)
- All gateway service tests pass (84)
- All update gateway restart tests pass (34)
Feishu approval clicks need the resolved card to come back from the
synchronous callback path itself. Leaving approval resolution to the
generic asynchronous card-action flow made button feedback depend on
later loop work instead of the callback response the client is waiting
for.
Change-Id: I574997cbbcaa097fdba759b47367e28d1b56b040
Constraint: Feishu card-action callbacks must acknowledge quickly and reflect final approval state from the callback response path
Rejected: Keep approval handling on the generic async card-action route | leaves card state synchronization vulnerable to callback timing and follow-up update ordering
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Keep approval callback response construction separate from async queue unblocking unless Feishu callback semantics change
Tested: pytest tests/gateway/test_feishu.py tests/gateway/test_feishu_approval_buttons.py tests/gateway/test_approve_deny_commands.py tests/gateway/test_slack_approval_buttons.py tests/gateway/test_telegram_approval_buttons.py -q
Not-tested: Live Feishu workspace end-to-end callback rendering
Three fixes for gateway lifecycle stability:
1. Notify active sessions before shutdown (#new)
When the gateway receives SIGTERM or /restart, it now sends a
notification to every chat with an active agent BEFORE starting
the drain. Users see:
- Shutdown: 'Gateway shutting down — your task will be interrupted.'
- Restart: 'Gateway restarting — use /retry after restart to continue.'
Deduplicates per-chat so group sessions with multiple users get
one notification. Best-effort: send failures are logged and swallowed.
2. Skip .clean_shutdown marker when drain timed out
Previously, a graceful SIGTERM always wrote .clean_shutdown, even if
agents were force-interrupted when the drain timed out. This meant
the next startup skipped session suspension, leaving interrupted
sessions in a broken state (trailing tool response, no final message).
Now the marker is only written if the drain completed without timeout,
so interrupted sessions get properly suspended on next startup.
3. Post-restart health check for hermes update (#6631)
cmd_update() now verifies the gateway actually survived after
systemctl restart (sleep 3s + is-active check). If the service
crashed immediately, it retries once. If still dead, prints
actionable diagnostics (journalctl command, manual restart hint).
Also closes#8104 — already fixed on main (the /restart handler
correctly detects systemd via INVOCATION_ID and uses via_service=True).
Test plan:
- 6 new tests for shutdown notifications (dedup, restart vs shutdown
messaging, sentinel filtering, send failure resilience)
- Existing restart drain + update tests pass (47 total)
When BlueBubbles posts webhook events to the adapter, it uses the exact
URL registered via /api/v1/webhook — and BB's registration API does not
support custom headers. The adapter currently registers the bare URL
(no credentials), but then requires password auth on inbound POSTs,
rejecting every webhook with HTTP 401.
This is masked on fresh BB installs by a race condition: the webhook
might register once with a prior (possibly patched) URL and keep working
until the first restart. On v0.9.0, _unregister_webhook runs on clean
shutdown, so the next startup re-registers with the bare URL and the
401s begin. Users see the bot go silent with no obvious cause.
Root cause: there's no way to pass auth credentials from BB to the
webhook handler except via the URL itself. BB accepts query params and
preserves them on outbound POSTs.
## Fix
Introduce `_webhook_register_url` — the URL handed to BB's registration
API, with the configured password appended as a `?password=<value>`
query param. The existing webhook auth handler already accepts this
form (it reads `request.query.get("password")`), so no change to the
receive side is needed.
The bare `_webhook_url` is still used for logging and for binding the
local listener, so credentials don't leak into log output. Only the
registration/find/unregister paths use the password-bearing form.
## Notes
- Password is URL-encoded via urllib.parse.quote, handling special
characters (&, *, @, etc.) that would otherwise break parsing.
- Storing the password in BB's webhook table is not a new disclosure:
anyone with access to that table already has the BB admin password
(same credential used for every other API call).
- If `self.password` is empty (no auth configured), the register URL
is the bare URL — preserves current behavior for unauthenticated
local-only setups.

BlueBubbles v1.9+ webhook payloads for new-message events do not always
include a top-level chatGuid field on the message data object. Instead,
the chat GUID is nested under data.chats[0].guid.
The adapter currently checks five top-level fallback locations (record and
payload, snake_case and camelCase, plus payload.guid) but never looks
inside the chats array. When none of those top-level fields contain the
GUID, the adapter falls through to using the sender's phone/email as the
session chat ID.
This causes two observable bugs when a user is a participant in both a DM
and a group chat with the bot:
1. DM and group sessions merge. Every message from that user ends up with
the same session_chat_id (their own address), so the bot cannot
distinguish which thread the message came from.
2. Outbound routing becomes ambiguous. _resolve_chat_guid() iterates all
chats and returns the first one where the address appears as a
participant; group chats typically sort ahead of DMs by activity, so
replies and cron messages intended for the DM can land in a group.
This was observed in production: a user's morning brief cron delivered to
a group chat with his spouse instead of his DM thread.
The fix adds a single fallback that extracts chat_guid from
record["chats"][0]["guid"] when the top-level fields are empty. The chats
array is included in every new-message webhook payload in BB v1.9.9
(verified against a live server). It is backwards compatible: if a future
BB version starts including chatGuid at the top level, that still wins.

The BlueBubbles adapter registers its webhook with three events:
["new-message", "updated-message", "message"]. The third, "message",
is not a valid event type in the BlueBubbles server API — BB rejects
the registration payload with HTTP 400 Bad Request.
Currently this is masked by the "crash resilience" check in
_register_webhook, which reuses any existing registration matching the
webhook URL and short-circuits before reaching the API call. So an
already-registered webhook from a prior run keeps working. But any fresh
install, or any restart after _unregister_webhook has run during a clean
shutdown, fails to re-register and silently stops receiving messages.
Observed in production: after a gateway restart in v0.9.0 (which auto-
unregisters on shutdown), the next startup hit this 400 and the bot went
silent until the invalid event was removed.
BlueBubbles documents "new-message" and "updated-message" as the message
event types (see https://docs.bluebubbles.app/). There is no "message"
event, and no harm in dropping it — the two remaining events cover all
inbound message webhooks.

When GATEWAY_PROXY_URL (or gateway.proxy_url in config.yaml) is set,
the gateway becomes a thin relay: it handles platform I/O (encryption,
threading, media) and delegates all agent work to a remote Hermes API
server via POST /v1/chat/completions with SSE streaming.
This enables the primary use case of running a Matrix E2EE gateway in
Docker on Linux while the actual agent runs on the host (e.g. macOS)
with full access to local files, memory, skills, and a unified session
store. Works for any platform adapter, not just Matrix.
Configuration:
- GATEWAY_PROXY_URL env var (Docker-friendly)
- gateway.proxy_url in config.yaml
- GATEWAY_PROXY_KEY env var for API auth (matches API_SERVER_KEY)
- X-Hermes-Session-Id header for session continuity
Architecture:
- _get_proxy_url() checks env var first, then config.yaml
- _run_agent_via_proxy() handles HTTP forwarding with SSE streaming
- _run_agent() delegates to proxy path when URL is configured
- Platform streaming (GatewayStreamConsumer) works through proxy
- Returns compatible result dict for session store recording
Files changed:
- gateway/run.py: proxy mode implementation (~250 lines)
- hermes_cli/config.py: GATEWAY_PROXY_URL + GATEWAY_PROXY_KEY env vars
- tests/gateway/test_proxy_mode.py: 17 tests covering config
resolution, dispatch, HTTP forwarding, error handling, message
filtering, and result shape validation
Closes discussion from Cars29 re: Matrix gateway mixed-mode issue.
The /new and /reset commands were not calling shutdown_memory_provider()
on the cached agent before eviction. This caused OpenViking (and any
memory provider that relies on session-end shutdown) to skip commit,
leaving memories un-indexed until idle timeout or gateway shutdown.
Add the missing shutdown_memory_provider() call in _handle_reset_command(),
matching the behavior already present in the session expiry watcher.
Fixes#7759
During rapid tool-calling, the model often emits 1-2 tokens before
switching to tool calls. The stream consumer would create a new message
with 'X ▉' (short text + cursor), and if the follow-up edit to strip
the cursor was rate-limited by the platform, the cursor remained as
a permanent standalone message — reported on Telegram as 'white box'
artifacts.
Add a minimum-content guard in _send_or_edit: when creating a new
standalone message (no existing message_id), require at least 4
visible characters alongside the cursor before sending. Shorter text
accumulates into the next streaming segment instead.
This prevents cursor-only 'tofu' messages across all platforms without
affecting normal streaming (edits to existing messages, final sends
without cursor, and messages with substantial text are all unaffected).
Reported by @michalkomar on X.
Production fixes:
- Add clear_session_context() to hermes_logging.py (fixes 48 teardown errors)
- Add clear_session() to tools/approval.py (fixes 9 setup errors)
- Add SyncError M_UNKNOWN_TOKEN check to Matrix _sync_loop (bug fix)
- Fall back to inline api_key in named custom providers when key_env
is absent (runtime_provider.py)
Test fixes:
- test_memory_user_id: use builtin+external provider pair, fix honcho
peer_name override test to match production behavior
- test_display_config: remove TestHelpers for non-existent functions
- test_auxiliary_client: fix OAuth tokens to match _is_oauth_token
patterns, replace get_vision_auxiliary_client with resolve_vision_provider_client
- test_cli_interrupt_subagent: add missing _execution_thread_id attr
- test_compress_focus: add model/provider/api_key/base_url/api_mode
to mock compressor
- test_auth_provider_gate: add autouse fixture to clean Anthropic env
vars that leak from CI secrets
- test_opencode_go_in_model_list: accept both 'built-in' and 'hermes'
source (models.dev API unavailable in CI)
- test_email: verify email Platform enum membership instead of source
inspection (build_channel_directory now uses dynamic enum loop)
- test_feishu: add bot_added/bot_deleted handler mocks to _Builder
- test_ws_auth_retry: add AsyncMock for sync_store.get_next_batch,
add _pending_megolm and _joined_rooms to Matrix adapter mocks
- test_restart_drain: monkeypatch-delete INVOCATION_ID (systemd sets
this in CI, changing the restart call signature)
- test_session_hygiene: add user_id to SessionSource
- test_session_env: use relative baseline for contextvar clear check
(pytest-xdist workers share context)
Improvements from our earlier #8269 salvage work applied to #7616:
- Platform token lock: acquire_scoped_lock/release_scoped_lock prevents
two profiles from double-connecting the same QQ bot simultaneously
- Send retry with exponential backoff (3 attempts, 1s/2s/4s) with
permanent vs transient error classification (matches Telegram pattern)
- Proper long-message splitting via truncate_message() instead of
hard-truncating at MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH (preserves code blocks, adds 1/N)
- REST-based one-shot send in send_message_tool — uses QQ Bot REST API
directly with httpx instead of creating a full WebSocket adapter per
message (fixes the connect→send race condition)
- Use shared strip_markdown() from helpers.py instead of 15 lines of
inline regex with import-inside-method (DRY, same as BlueBubbles/SMS)
- format_message() now wired into send() pipeline
- Add Platform.QQBOT to _UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS (enables /update command)
- Add 'qqbot' to webhook cross-platform delivery routing
- Add 'qqbot' to hermes dump platform detection
- Fix test_name_property casing: 'QQBot' not 'QQBOT'
- Add _parse_qq_timestamp() for ISO 8601 + integer ms compatibility
(QQ API changed timestamp format — from PR #2411 finding)
- Wire timestamp parsing into all 4 message handlers
- Rename platform from 'qq' to 'qqbot' across all integration points
(Platform enum, toolset, config keys, import paths, file rename qq.py → qqbot.py)
- Add PLATFORM_HINTS for QQBot in prompt_builder (QQ supports markdown)
- Set SUPPORTS_MESSAGE_EDITING = False to skip streaming on QQ
(prevents duplicate messages from non-editable partial + final sends)
- Add _send_qqbot() standalone send function for cron/send_message tool
- Add interactive _setup_qq() wizard in hermes_cli/setup.py
- Restore missing _setup_signal/email/sms/dingtalk/feishu/wecom/wecom_callback
functions that were lost during the original merge
Models like MiniMax emit inline <think>...</think> reasoning blocks in
their content field. The CLI already suppresses these via a state machine
in _stream_delta, but the gateway's GatewayStreamConsumer had no
equivalent filtering — raw think blocks were streamed directly to
Discord/Telegram/Slack.
The fix adds a _filter_and_accumulate() method that mirrors the CLI's
approach: a state machine tracks whether we're inside a reasoning block
and silently discards the content. Includes the same block-boundary
check (tag must appear at line start or after whitespace-only prefix)
to avoid false positives when models mention <think> in prose.
Handles all tag variants: <think>, <thinking>, <THINKING>, <thought>,
<reasoning>, <REASONING_SCRATCHPAD>.
Also handles edge cases:
- Tags split across streaming deltas (partial tag buffering)
- Unclosed blocks (content suppressed until stream ends)
- Multiple consecutive blocks
- _flush_think_buffer on stream end for held-back partial tags
Adds 22 unit tests + 1 integration test covering all scenarios.
When the 5-second stream_task timeout in gateway/run.py expires (due to
slow Telegram API calls from rate limiting after several messages), the
stream consumer is cancelled via asyncio.CancelledError. The
CancelledError handler did a best-effort final edit but never set
final_response_sent, so the gateway fell through to the normal send path
and delivered the full response again as a reply — causing a duplicate.
The fix: in the CancelledError handler, set final_response_sent = True
when already_sent is True (i.e., the stream consumer had already
delivered content to the user). This tells the gateway's already_sent
check that the response was delivered, preventing the duplicate send.
Adds two tests verifying the cancellation behavior:
- Cancelled with already_sent=True → final_response_sent=True (no dup)
- Cancelled with already_sent=False → final_response_sent=False (normal
send path proceeds)
Reported by community user hume on Discord.
/stop was calling suspend_session() which marked the session for auto-reset
on the next message. This meant users lost their conversation history every
time they stopped a running agent — especially painful for untitled sessions
that can't be resumed by name.
Now /stop just interrupts the agent and cleans the session lock. The session
stays intact so users can continue the conversation.
The suspend behavior was introduced in #7536 to break stuck session resume
loops on gateway restart. That case is already handled by
suspend_recently_active() which runs at gateway startup, so removing it from
/stop doesn't regress the original fix.
The v11→v12 migration converts custom_providers (list) into providers
(dict), then deletes the list. But all runtime resolvers read from
custom_providers — after migration, named custom endpoints silently stop
resolving and fallback chains fail with AuthError.
Add get_compatible_custom_providers() that reads from both config schemas
(legacy custom_providers list + v12+ providers dict), normalizes entries,
deduplicates, and returns a unified list. Update ALL consumers:
- hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py: _get_named_custom_provider() + key_env
- hermes_cli/auth_commands.py: credential pool provider names
- hermes_cli/main.py: model picker + _model_flow_named_custom()
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: key_env + custom_entry model fallback
- agent/credential_pool.py: _iter_custom_providers()
- cli.py + gateway/run.py: /model switch custom_providers passthrough
- run_agent.py + gateway/run.py: per-model context_length lookup
Also: use config.pop() instead of del for safer migration, fix stale
_config_version assertions in tests, add pool mock to codex test.

Closes#8776, salvaged from PR #8814
Updated the acquire_scoped_lock function to treat empty or corrupt lock files as stale. This change ensures that if a lock file exists but is invalid, it will be removed to prevent issues with stale locks. Added tests to verify recovery from both empty and corrupt lock files.
- Store source metadata on /voice channel join so voice input shares the
same session as the linked text channel conversation
- Treat voice-linked text channels as free-response (skip @mention and
auto-thread) while voice is active
- Scope the voice-linked exemption to the exact bound channel, not
sibling threads
- Guard signal handler registration in start_gateway() for non-main
threads (prevents RuntimeError when gateway runs in a daemon thread)
- Clean up _voice_sources on leave_voice_channel

When HTTPS_PROXY / HTTP_PROXY / ALL_PROXY env vars are set (or macOS system proxy
is detected), pass the proxy URL explicitly via HTTPXRequest(proxy=proxy_url) instead
of relying on httpx's trust_env mechanism, which is unreliable for HTTP CONNECT
proxies (e.g. Clash / ClashMac in fake-ip mode).
Uses the shared resolve_proxy_url() from base.py (handles env vars + macOS system
proxy detection) instead of duplicating env var reading inline. Consolidates the
proxy_configured boolean into a single proxy_url = resolve_proxy_url() call that
serves as both the gate for skipping fallback-IP transport and the value passed
to HTTPXRequest.

Salvaged from PR #8931 by MaybeRichard.
The detached bash subprocess spawned by /restart gets killed by
systemd's KillMode=mixed cgroup cleanup, leaving the gateway dead.
Under systemd (detected via INVOCATION_ID env var), /restart now uses
via_service=True which exits with code 75 — RestartForceExitStatus=75
in the unit file makes systemd auto-restart the service. The detached
subprocess approach is preserved as fallback for non-systemd
environments (Docker, tmux, foreground mode).
When a user sends /restart, the gateway now persists their routing info
(platform, chat_id, thread_id) to .restart_notify.json. After the new
gateway process starts and adapters connect, it reads the file, sends a
'Gateway restarted successfully' message to that specific chat, and
cleans up the file.
This follows the same pattern as _send_update_notification (used by
/update). Thread IDs are preserved so the notification lands in the
correct Telegram topic or Discord thread.
Previously, after /restart the user had no feedback that the gateway was
back — they had to send a message to find out. Now they get a proactive
notification and know their session continues.
When tool_preview_length is 0 (default for platforms without a tier
default, like Session), verbose mode was truncating args JSON to 200
characters. Since the user explicitly opted into verbose mode, they
expect full tool call detail — the 200-char cap defeated the purpose.
Now: tool_preview_length=0 means no truncation in verbose mode.
Positive values still cap as before. Platform message-length limits
handle overflow naturally.
Three changes that address the poor WhatsApp experience reported by users:
1. Reclassify WhatsApp from TIER_LOW to TIER_MEDIUM in display_config.py
— enables streaming and tool progress via the existing Baileys /edit
bridge endpoint. Users now see progressive responses instead of
minutes of silence followed by a wall of text.
2. Lower MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH from 65536 to 4096 and add proper chunking
— send() now calls format_message() and truncate_message() before
sending, then loops through chunks with a small delay between them.
The base class truncate_message() already handles code block boundary
detection (closes/reopens fences at chunk boundaries). reply_to is
only set on the first chunk.
3. Override format_message() with WhatsApp-specific markdown conversion
— converts **bold** to *bold*, ~~strike~~ to ~strike~, headers to
bold text, and [links](url) to text (url). Code blocks and inline
code are protected from conversion via placeholder substitution.
Together these fix the two user complaints:
- 'sends the whole code all the time' → now chunked at 4K with proper
formatting
- 'terminal gets interrupted and gets cooked' → streaming + tool progress
give visual feedback so users don't accidentally interrupt with
follow-up messages
Port from nearai/ironclaw#2304: Telegram's 4096 character limit is
measured in UTF-16 code units, not Unicode codepoints. Characters
outside the Basic Multilingual Plane (emoji like 😀, CJK Extension B,
musical symbols) are surrogate pairs: 1 Python char but 2 UTF-16 units.
Previously, truncate_message() used Python's len() which counts
codepoints. This could produce chunks exceeding Telegram's actual limit
when messages contain many astral-plane characters.
Changes:
- Add utf16_len() helper and _prefix_within_utf16_limit() for
UTF-16-aware string measurement and truncation
- Add _custom_unit_to_cp() binary-search helper that maps a custom-unit
budget to the largest safe codepoint slice position
- Update truncate_message() to accept optional len_fn parameter
- Telegram adapter now passes len_fn=utf16_len when splitting messages
- Fix fallback truncation in Telegram error handler to use
_prefix_within_utf16_limit instead of codepoint slicing
- Update send_message_tool.py to use utf16_len for Telegram platform
- Add comprehensive tests: utf16_len, _prefix_within_utf16_limit,
truncate_message with len_fn (emoji splitting, content preservation,
code block handling)
- Update mock lambdas in reply_mode tests to accept **kw for len_fn
Adds /debug as a slash command available in CLI, Telegram, Discord,
Slack, and all other gateway platforms. Uploads debug report + full
logs to paste services and returns shareable URLs.
- commands.py: CommandDef in Info category (no cli_only/gateway_only)
- gateway/run.py: async handler with run_in_executor for blocking I/O
- cli.py: dispatch in process_command to run_debug_share
Port from openclaw/openclaw#64586: users who copy .env.example without
changing placeholder values now get a clear error at startup instead of
a confusing auth failure from the platform API. Also rejects placeholder
API_SERVER_KEY when binding to a network-accessible address.

Port from openclaw/openclaw#64796: Per MSC3952 / Matrix v1.7, the
m.mentions.user_ids field is the authoritative mention signal. Clients

were being silently dropped when MATRIX_REQUIRE_MENTION=true.

Some OpenAI-compatible clients (Open WebUI, LobeChat, etc.) send
message content as an array of typed parts instead of a plain string:
[{"type": "text", "text": "hello"}]
The agent pipeline expects strings, so these array payloads caused
silent failures or empty messages.
Add _normalize_chat_content() with defensive limits (recursion depth,
list size, output length) and apply it to both the Chat Completions
and Responses API endpoints. The Responses path had inline
normalization that only handled input_text/output_text — the shared
function also handles the standard 'text' type.
Salvaged from PR #7980 (ikelvingo) — only the content normalization;

aiohttp.ClientSession defaults to trust_env=False, ignoring HTTP_PROXY/
HTTPS_PROXY env vars. This causes QR login and all API calls to fail for
users behind a proxy (e.g. Clash in fake-ip mode), which is common in
China where Weixin and WeCom are primarily used.
Added trust_env=True to all aiohttp.ClientSession instantiations that
connect to external hosts (weixin: 3 places, wecom: 1, matrix: 1).
WhatsApp sessions are excluded as they only connect to localhost.
httpx-based adapters (dingtalk, signal, wecom_callback) are unaffected
as httpx defaults to trust_env=True.

Four fixes for the Weixin/WeChat adapter, synthesized from the best
aspects of community PRs #8407, #8521, #8360, #7695, #8308, #8525,
#7531, #8144, #8251.
1. Streaming cursor (▉) stuck permanently — WeChat doesn't support
message editing, so the cursor appended during streaming can never
be removed. Add SUPPORTS_MESSAGE_EDITING = False to WeixinAdapter
and check it in gateway/run.py to use an empty cursor for non-edit
platforms. (Fixes#8307, #8326)
2. Media upload failures — two bugs in _send_file():
a) upload_full_url path used PUT (404 on WeChat CDN); now uses POST.
b) aes_key was base64(raw_bytes) but the iLink API expects
base64(hex_string); images showed as grey boxes. (Fixes#8352, #7529)
Also: unified both upload paths into _upload_ciphertext(), preferring
upload_full_url. Added send_video/send_voice methods and voice_item
media builder for audio/.silk files. Added video_md5 field.
3. Markdown links stripped — WeChat can't render [text](url), so
format_message() now converts them to 'text (url)' plaintext.
Code blocks are preserved. (Fixes#7617)
4. Blank message prevention — three guards:
a) _split_text_for_weixin_delivery('') returns [] not ['']
b) send() filters empty/whitespace chunks before _send_text_chunk
c) _send_message() raises ValueError for empty text as safety net

Add agent.gateway_notify_interval config option (default 600s).
Set to 0 to disable periodic 'still working' notifications.
Bridged to HERMES_AGENT_NOTIFY_INTERVAL env var (same pattern as
gateway_timeout and gateway_timeout_warning).
The inactivity warning (gateway_timeout_warning) was already
configurable; this makes the wall-clock ping configurable too.
The _watch_update_progress() poll loop never deleted .update_prompt.json
after forwarding the prompt to the user, causing the same prompt to be
re-sent every poll cycle (2s). Two fixes:
1. Delete .update_prompt.json after forwarding — the update process only
polls for .update_response, it doesn't need the prompt file to persist.
2. Guard re-sends with _update_prompt_pending check — belt-and-suspenders
to prevent duplicates even under race conditions.
Add regression test asserting the prompt is sent exactly once.
When a user configures a provider (e.g. `hermes auth add openai-codex`)
but never selects a model via `hermes model`, the gateway and CLI would
pass an empty model string to the API, causing:
'Codex Responses request model must be a non-empty string'
Now both gateway (_resolve_session_agent_runtime) and CLI
(_ensure_runtime_credentials) detect an empty model and fill it from
the provider's first catalog entry in _PROVIDER_MODELS. This covers
all providers that have a static model list (openai-codex, anthropic,
gemini, copilot, etc.).
The fix is conservative: it only triggers when model is truly empty
and a known provider was resolved. Explicit model choices are never
overridden.
When the gateway shuts down gracefully (hermes update, gateway restart,
/restart), it now writes a .clean_shutdown marker file. On the next
startup, if this marker exists, suspend_recently_active() is skipped
and the marker is cleaned up.
Previously, suspend_recently_active() fired on EVERY startup —
including planned restarts from hermes update or hermes gateway restart.
This caused users to lose their conversation history unexpectedly: the
session would be marked as suspended, and the next message would
trigger an auto-reset with a notification the user never asked for.
The original purpose of suspend_recently_active() is crash recovery —
preventing stuck sessions that were mid-processing when the gateway
died unexpectedly. Graceful shutdowns already drain active agents via
_drain_active_agents(), so there is no stuck-session risk. After a
crash (no marker written), suspension still fires as before.
Fixes the scenario where a user asks the agent to run hermes update,
the gateway restarts, and the user's next message gets an unwanted
'Session automatically reset' notification with their history cleared.
Follow-up for cherry-picked PR #8272:
- Add MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY to module docstring header in matrix.py
- Register in OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS (config.py) with password=True, advanced=True
- Add to _NON_SETUP_ENV_VARS set
- Document cross-signing verification in matrix.md E2EE section
- Update migration guide with recovery key step (step 3)
- Add to environment-variables.md reference
After the PgCryptoStore migration in v0.8.0, the verify_with_recovery_key
call that previously ran after share_keys() was dropped. On any rotation
that uploads fresh device keys (fresh crypto.db, server had stale keys
from a prior install, etc.), the new device keys carry no valid self-
signing signature because the bot has no access to the self-signing
private key.
Peers like Element then refuse to share Megolm sessions with the
rotated device, so the bot silently stops decrypting incoming messages.
This restores the recovery-key bootstrap: on startup, if
MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY is set, import the cross-signing private keys from
SSSS and sign_own_device(), producing a valid signature server-side.
Idempotent and gated on MATRIX_RECOVERY_KEY — no behavior change for
users who don't configure a recovery key.
Verified end-to-end by deleting crypto.db and restarting: the bot
rotates device identity keys, re-uploads, self-signs via recovery key,
and decrypts+replies to fresh messages from a paired Element client.
After /model switches the model (both picker and text paths), the cached
agent's config signature becomes stale — the agent was updated in-place
via switch_model() but the cache tuple's signature was never refreshed.
The next turn *should* detect the signature mismatch and create a fresh
agent, but this relies on the new model's signature differing from the
old one in _agent_config_signature().
Evicting the cached agent explicitly after storing the session override
is more defensive — the next turn is guaranteed to create a fresh agent
from the override without depending on signature mismatch detection.
Also adds debug logging at three key decision points so we can trace
exactly what happens when /model + /retry interact:
- _resolve_session_agent_runtime: which override path is taken (fast
with api_key vs fallback), or why no override was found
- _run_agent.run_sync: final resolved model/provider before agent
creation
Reported: /model switch to xiaomi/mimo-v2-pro followed by /retry still
used the old model (glm-5.1).
The monitor_for_interrupt() and backup interrupt checks were calling
get_pending_message() which pops the message from the adapter's queue.
This created a race condition: if the agent finished naturally before
checking _interrupt_requested, the pending message was permanently lost.
Timeline of the race:
1. Agent near completion, user sends message
2. Level 1 guard stores message in adapter._pending_messages, sets event
3. monitor_for_interrupt() detects event, POPS message, calls agent.interrupt()
4. Agent's run_conversation() was already returning (interrupted=False)
5. Post-run dequeue finds nothing (monitor already consumed it)
6. result.get('interrupted') is False so interrupt_message fallback doesn't fire
7. User message permanently lost — agent finishes without processing it
Fix: change all three interrupt detection sites (primary monitor + two
backup checks) from get_pending_message() (pop) to
_pending_messages.get() (peek). The message stays in the adapter's queue
until _dequeue_pending_event() consumes it in the post-run handler,
which runs regardless of whether the agent was interrupted or finished
naturally.
Reported by @_SushantSays — intermittent message loss during long
terminal command execution, persisting after the previous fix (73f970fa)
which addressed monitor task death but not this consumption race.
Add content-aware splitting to compact mode: short chat-like exchanges
(2-6 short lines without headings/lists/quotes) get separate message
bubbles for a natural chat feel, while structured content (tables,
headings with body, numbered lists) stays in a single message.
Cherry-picked from PR #7587 by bravohenry, adapted to the compact/legacy
split_per_line architecture from #7903.
When the agent calls process(action='wait') or process(action='poll')
and gets the exited status, the completion_queue notification is
redundant — the agent already has the output from the tool return.
Previously, the drain loops in CLI and gateway would still inject
the [SYSTEM: Background process completed] message, causing the
agent to receive the same information twice.
Fix: track session IDs in _completion_consumed set when wait/poll/log
returns an exited process. Drain loops in cli.py and gateway watcher
skip completion events for consumed sessions. Watch pattern events
are never suppressed (they have independent semantics).
Adds 4 tests covering wait/poll/log marking and running-process
negative case.
Add a 'tip of the day' feature that displays a random one-liner about
Hermes Agent features on every new session — CLI startup, /clear, /new,
and gateway /new across all messaging platforms.
- New hermes_cli/tips.py module with 210 curated tips covering slash
commands, keybindings, CLI flags, config options, tools, gateway
platforms, profiles, sessions, memory, skills, cron, voice, security,
and more
- CLI: tips display in skin-aware dim gold color after the welcome line
- Gateway: tips append to the /new and /reset response on all platforms
- Fully wrapped in try/except — tips are non-critical and never break
startup or reset
Display format (CLI):
✦ Tip: /btw <question> asks a quick side question without tools or history.
Display format (gateway):
✨ Session reset! Starting fresh.
✦ Tip: hermes -c resumes your most recent CLI session.
The interrupt mechanism for regular text messages (non-commands) during
active agent runs relied on a single async polling task
(monitor_for_interrupt) with no error handling. If this task died
silently due to an unhandled exception, stale adapter reference after
reconnect, or any other failure, user messages sent during agent
execution would be queued but never trigger an actual interrupt — the
agent would continue running until it finished naturally, then process
the queued message.
Three improvements:
1. Error handling in monitor_for_interrupt(): wrap the polling body in
try/except so transient errors are logged and retried instead of
silently killing the task.
2. Fresh adapter reference on each poll iteration: re-resolve
self.adapters.get(source.platform) every 200ms instead of capturing
the adapter once at task creation time. This prevents stale
references after adapter reconnects.
3. Backup interrupt check in the inactivity poll loop: both the
unlimited and timeout-enabled paths now check for pending interrupts
every 5 seconds (the existing poll interval). Uses a shared
_interrupt_detected asyncio.Event to avoid double-firing when the
primary monitor already handled the interrupt. Logs at INFO level
with monitor task state for debugging.
On servers with broken or unreachable IPv6, Python's socket.getaddrinfo
returns AAAA records first. urllib/httpx/requests all try IPv6 connections
first and hang for the full TCP timeout before falling back to IPv4. This
affects web_extract, web_search, the OpenAI SDK, and all HTTP tools.
Adds network.force_ipv4 config option (default: false) that monkey-patches
socket.getaddrinfo to resolve as AF_INET when the caller didn't specify a
family. Falls back to full resolution if no A record exists, so pure-IPv6
hosts still work.
Applied early at all three entry points (CLI, gateway, cron scheduler)
before any HTTP clients are created.
Reported by user @29n — Chinese Ubuntu server with unreachable IPv6 causing
timeouts on lobste.rs and other IPv6-enabled sites while Google/GitHub
worked fine (IPv4-only resolution).
The gateway startup path references RedactingFormatter without
importing it, causing a NameError crash when launched with a
verbosity flag (e.g. via launchd --replace).

Adds an optional focus topic to /compress: `/compress database schema`
guides the summariser to preserve information related to the focus topic
(60-70% of summary budget) while compressing everything else more aggressively.
Inspired by Claude Code's /compact <focus>.
Changes:
- context_compressor.py: focus_topic parameter on _generate_summary() and
compress(); appends FOCUS TOPIC guidance block to the LLM prompt
- run_agent.py: focus_topic parameter on _compress_context(), passed through
to the compressor
- cli.py: _manual_compress() extracts focus topic from command string,
preserves existing manual_compression_feedback integration (no regression)
- gateway/run.py: _handle_compress_command() extracts focus from event args
and passes through — full gateway parity
- commands.py: args_hint="[focus topic]" on /compress CommandDef
Salvaged from PR #7459 (CLI /compress focus only — /context command deferred).
15 new tests across CLI, compressor, and gateway.
Fixes#7952 — Matrix E2EE completely broken after mautrix migration.
- Replace MemoryCryptoStore + pickle/HMAC persistence with mautrix's
PgCryptoStore backed by SQLite via aiosqlite. Crypto state now
persists reliably across restarts without fragile serialization.
- Add handle_sync() call on initial sync response so to-device events
(queued Megolm key shares) are dispatched to OlmMachine instead of
being silently dropped.
- Add _verify_device_keys_on_server() after loading crypto state.
Detects missing keys (re-uploads), stale keys from migration
(attempts re-upload), and corrupted state (refuses E2EE).
- Add _CryptoStateStore adapter wrapping MemoryStateStore to satisfy
mautrix crypto's StateStore interface (is_encrypted,
get_encryption_info, find_shared_rooms).
- Remove redundant share_keys() call from sync loop — OlmMachine
already handles this via DEVICE_OTK_COUNT event handler.
- Fix datetime vs float TypeError in session.py suspend_recently_active()
that crashed gateway startup.
- Add aiosqlite and asyncpg to [matrix] extra in pyproject.toml.
- Update test mocks for PgCryptoStore/Database and add query_keys mock
for key verification. 174 tests pass.
- Add E2EE upgrade/migration docs to Matrix user guide.
* feat: component-separated logging with session context and filtering
Phase 1 — Gateway log isolation:
- gateway.log now only receives records from gateway.* loggers
(platform adapters, session management, slash commands, delivery)
- agent.log remains the catch-all (all components)
- errors.log remains WARNING+ catch-all
- Moved gateway.log handler creation from gateway/run.py into
hermes_logging.setup_logging(mode='gateway') with _ComponentFilter
Phase 2 — Session ID injection:
- Added set_session_context(session_id) / clear_session_context() API
using threading.local() for per-thread session tracking
- _SessionFilter enriches every log record with session_tag attribute
- Log format: '2026-04-11 10:23:45 INFO [session_id] logger.name: msg'
- Session context set at start of run_conversation() in run_agent.py
- Thread-isolated: gateway conversations on different threads don't leak
Phase 3 — Component filtering in hermes logs:
- Added --component flag: hermes logs --component gateway|agent|tools|cli|cron
- COMPONENT_PREFIXES maps component names to logger name prefixes
- Works with all existing filters (--level, --session, --since, -f)
- Logger name extraction handles both old and new log formats
Files changed:
- hermes_logging.py: _SessionFilter, _ComponentFilter, COMPONENT_PREFIXES,
set/clear_session_context(), gateway.log creation in setup_logging()
- gateway/run.py: removed redundant gateway.log handler (now in hermes_logging)
- run_agent.py: set_session_context() at start of run_conversation()
- hermes_cli/logs.py: --component filter, logger name extraction
- hermes_cli/main.py: --component argument on logs subparser
Addresses community request for component-separated, filterable logging.
Zero changes to existing logger names — __name__ already provides hierarchy.
* fix: use LogRecord factory instead of per-handler _SessionFilter
The _SessionFilter approach required attaching a filter to every handler
we create. Any handler created outside our _add_rotating_handler (like
the gateway stderr handler, or third-party handlers) would crash with
KeyError: 'session_tag' if it used our format string.
Replace with logging.setLogRecordFactory() which injects session_tag
into every LogRecord at creation time — process-global, zero per-handler
wiring needed. The factory is installed at import time (before
setup_logging) so session_tag is available from the moment hermes_logging
is imported.
- Idempotent: marker attribute prevents double-wrapping on module reload
- Chains with existing factory: won't break third-party record factories
- Removes _SessionFilter from _add_rotating_handler and setup_verbose_logging
- Adds tests: record factory injection, idempotency, arbitrary handler compat
Add display.platforms section to config.yaml for per-platform overrides of
display settings (tool_progress, show_reasoning, streaming, tool_preview_length).
Each platform gets sensible built-in defaults based on capability tier:
- High (telegram, discord): tool_progress=all, streaming follows global
- Medium (slack, mattermost, matrix, feishu): tool_progress=new
- Low (signal, whatsapp, bluebubbles, wecom, etc.): tool_progress=off, streaming=false
- Minimal (email, sms, webhook, homeassistant): tool_progress=off, streaming=false
Example config:
display:
platforms:
telegram:
tool_progress: all
show_reasoning: true
slack:
tool_progress: off
Resolution order: platform override > global setting > built-in platform default.
Changes:
- New gateway/display_config.py: resolver module with tier-based platform defaults
- gateway/run.py: tool_progress, tool_preview_length, streaming, show_reasoning
all resolve per-platform via the new resolver
- /verbose command: now cycles tool_progress per-platform (saves to
display.platforms.<platform>.tool_progress instead of global)
- /reasoning show|hide: now saves show_reasoning per-platform
- Config version 15 -> 16: migrates tool_progress_overrides into display.platforms
- Backward compat: legacy tool_progress_overrides still read as fallback
- 27 new tests for resolver, normalization, migration, backward compat
- Updated verbose command tests for per-platform behavior
Addresses community request for per-channel verbosity control (Guillaume Meyer,
Nathan Danielsen) — high verbosity on backchannel Telegram, low on customer-facing
Slack, none on email.
Add display.interim_assistant_messages config (enabled by default) that
forwards completed assistant commentary between tool calls to the user
as separate chat messages. Models already emit useful status text like
'I'll inspect the repo first.' — this surfaces it on Telegram, Discord,
and other messaging platforms instead of swallowing it.
Independent from tool_progress and gateway streaming. Disabled for
webhooks. Uses GatewayStreamConsumer when available, falls back to
direct adapter send. Tracks response_previewed to prevent double-delivery
when interim message matches the final response.
Also fixes: cursor not stripped from fallback prefix in stream consumer
(affected continuation calculation on no-edit platforms like Signal).
Cherry-picked from PR #7885 by asheriif, default changed to enabled.
Fixes#5016
Complete the contextvars migration by adding HERMES_SESSION_KEY to the
unified _VAR_MAP in session_context.py. Without this, concurrent gateway
handlers race on os.environ["HERMES_SESSION_KEY"].
- Add _SESSION_KEY ContextVar to _VAR_MAP, set_session_vars(), clear_session_vars()
- Wire session_key through _set_session_env() from SessionContext
- Replace os.getenv fallback in tools/approval.py with get_session_env()
(function-level import to avoid cross-layer coupling)
- Keep os.environ set as CLI/cron fallback
Cherry-picked from PR #7878 by 0xbyt4.
Add a second WeCom integration mode for regular enterprise self-built
applications. Unlike the existing bot/websocket adapter (wecom.py),
this handles WeCom's standard callback flow: WeCom POSTs encrypted XML
to an HTTP endpoint, the adapter decrypts, queues for the agent, and
immediately acknowledges. The agent's reply is delivered proactively
via the message/send API.
Key design choice: always acknowledge immediately and use proactive
send — agent sessions take 3-30 minutes, so the 5-second inline reply
window is never useful. The original PR's Future/pending-reply
machinery was removed in favour of this simpler architecture.
Features:
- AES-CBC encrypt/decrypt (BizMsgCrypt-compatible)
- Multi-app routing scoped by corp_id:user_id
- Legacy bare user_id fallback for backward compat
- Access-token management with auto-refresh
- WECOM_CALLBACK_* env var overrides
- Port-in-use pre-check before binding
- Health endpoint at /health
Salvaged from PR #7774 by @chqchshj. Simplified by removing the
inline reply Future system and fixing: secrets.choice for nonce
generation, immediate plain-text acknowledgment (not encrypted XML
containing 'success'), and initial token refresh error handling.
When 'hermes claw migrate' copies Telegram/Discord/Slack bot tokens from
OpenClaw while the Hermes gateway is already polling with those same tokens,
the platforms conflict (e.g. Telegram 409). Add a pre-flight check that reads
gateway_state.json via get_running_pid() + read_runtime_status(), warns the
user, and lets them cancel or continue.
Also improve the Telegram polling conflict error message to mention OpenClaw
as a common cause and give the 'hermes start' restart command.
Refs #7907
In _run_agent(), the pending message handler references 'event' which
is not defined in that scope — it only exists in the caller. This
causes a NameError when sending the first response before processing a
queued follow-up message.
Replace getattr(event, 'metadata', None) with the established pattern
using source.thread_id, consistent with lines 2625, 2810, 3678, 4410, 4566
in the same file.
When sending multi-chunk responses, individual chunks can fail due to
transient iLink API errors. Previously a single failure would abort the
entire message. Now each chunk is retried with linear backoff before
giving up, and the same client_id is reused across retries for
server-side deduplication.
Configurable via config.yaml (platforms.weixin.extra) or env vars:
- send_chunk_delay_seconds (default 0.35s) — pacing between chunks
- send_chunk_retries (default 2) — max retry attempts per chunk
- send_chunk_retry_delay_seconds (default 1.0s) — base retry delay
Replaces the hardcoded 0.3s inter-chunk delay from #7903.

Cherry-picked from PR #7747 with follow-up fixes:
- Narrowed suspend_all_active() to suspend_recently_active() — only
suspends sessions updated within the last 2 minutes (likely in-flight),
not all sessions which would unnecessarily reset idle users
- /stop with no running agent no longer suspends the session; only
actual force-stops mark the session for reset
Background process watchers (notify_on_complete, check_interval) created
synthetic SessionSource objects without user_id/user_name. While the
internal=True bypass (1d8d4f28) prevented false pairing for agent-
generated notifications, the missing identity caused:
- Garbage entries in pairing rate limiters (discord:None, telegram:None)
- 'User None' in approval messages and logs
- No user identity available for future code paths that need it
Additionally, platform messages arriving without from_user (Telegram
service messages, channel forwards, anonymous admin actions) could still
trigger false pairing because they are not internal events.
Fix:
1. Propagate user_id/user_name through the full watcher chain:
session_context.py → gateway/run.py → terminal_tool.py →
process_registry.py (including checkpoint persistence/recovery)
2. Add None user_id guard in _handle_message() — silently drop
non-internal messages with no user identity instead of triggering
the pairing flow.

The Weixin adapter was splitting responses at every top-level newline,
causing notification spam (up to 70 API calls for a single long markdown
response). This salvages the best aspects of six contributor PRs:
Compact mode (new default):
- Messages under the 4000-char limit stay as a single bubble even with
multiple lines, paragraphs, and code blocks
- Only oversized messages get split at logical markdown boundaries
- Inter-chunk delay (0.3s) between chunks prevents WeChat rate-limit drops
Legacy mode (opt-in):
- Set split_multiline_messages: true in platforms.weixin.extra config
- Or set WEIXIN_SPLIT_MULTILINE_MESSAGES=true env var
- Restores the old per-line splitting behavior

* fix(matrix): pass required args to MemoryCryptoStore for mautrix ≥0.21
MemoryCryptoStore.__init__() now requires account_id and pickle_key
positional arguments as of mautrix 0.21. The migration from matrix-nio
(commit 1850747) didn't account for this, causing E2EE initialization
to fail with:
MemoryCryptoStore.__init__() missing 2 required positional arguments:
'account_id' and 'pickle_key'
Pass self._user_id as account_id and derive pickle_key from the same
user_id:device_id pair already used for the on-disk HMAC signature.
Update the test stub to accept the new parameters.
Fixes#7803
* fix: use consistent fallback for pickle_key derivation
Address review: _pickle_key now uses _acct_id (which has the 'hermes'
fallback) instead of raw self._user_id, so both values stay consistent
when user_id is empty.

Telegram flood control during streaming caused messages to be cut off
mid-response. The old behavior permanently disabled edits after a single
flood-control failure, losing the remainder of the response.
Changes:
- Adaptive backoff: on flood-control edit failures, double the edit interval
instead of immediately disabling edits. Only permanently disable after 3
consecutive failures (_MAX_FLOOD_STRIKES).
- Cursor strip: when entering fallback mode, best-effort edit to remove the
cursor (▉) from the last visible message so it doesn't appear stuck.
- Fallback send retry: _send_fallback_final retries each chunk once on
flood-control failures (3s delay) before giving up.
- Default edit_interval increased from 0.3s to 1.0s. Telegram rate-limits
edits at ~1/s per message; 0.3s was virtually guaranteed to trigger flood
control on any non-trivial response.
- _send_or_edit returns bool so the overflow split loop knows not to
truncate accumulated text when an edit fails (prevents content loss).
Fixes: messages cutting/stopping mid-response on Telegram, especially
with streaming enabled.
* feat: add watch_patterns to background processes for output monitoring
Adds a new 'watch_patterns' parameter to terminal(background=true) that
lets the agent specify strings to watch for in process output. When a
matching line appears, a notification is queued and injected as a
synthetic message — triggering a new agent turn, similar to
notify_on_complete but mid-process.
Implementation:
- ProcessSession gets watch_patterns field + rate-limit state
- _check_watch_patterns() in ProcessRegistry scans new output chunks
from all three reader threads (local, PTY, env-poller)
- Rate limited: max 8 notifications per 10s window
- Sustained overload (45s) permanently disables watching for that process
- watch_queue alongside completion_queue, same consumption pattern
- CLI drains watch_queue in both idle loop and post-turn drain
- Gateway drains after agent runs via _inject_watch_notification()
- Checkpoint persistence + crash recovery includes watch_patterns
- Blocked in execute_code sandbox (like other bg params)
- 20 new tests covering matching, rate limiting, overload kill,
checkpoint persistence, schema, and handler passthrough
Usage:
terminal(
command='npm run dev',
background=true,
watch_patterns=['ERROR', 'WARN', 'listening on port']
)
* refactor: merge watch_queue into completion_queue
Unified queue with 'type' field distinguishing 'completion',
'watch_match', and 'watch_disabled' events. Extracted
_format_process_notification() in CLI and gateway to handle
all event types in a single drain loop. Removes duplication
across both CLI drain sites and the gateway.
When the stream consumer has sent at least one message (already_sent=True),
the gateway skips sending the final response to avoid duplicates. But this
also suppressed error messages when the agent failed mid-loop — rate limit
exhaustion, context overflow, compression failure, etc.
The user would see the last streamed content and then nothing: no error
message, no explanation. The agent appeared to 'stop responding.'
Fix: check the 'failed' flag at both the producer (_run_agent marks
already_sent) and consumer (_handle_message_with_agent checks it) sites.
Error messages are always delivered regardless of streaming state.
- Add agent.close() call to _finalize_shutdown_agents() to prevent
zombie processes (terminal sandboxes, browser daemons, httpx clients)
- Global cleanup (process_registry, environments, browsers) preserved
in _stop_impl() during conflict resolution
- Move /restart CommandDef from 'Info' to 'Session' category to match
/stop and /status
* fix: circuit breaker stops CPU-burning restart loops on persistent errors
When a gateway session hits a non-retryable error (e.g. invalid model
ID → HTTP 400), the agent fails and returns. But if the session keeps
receiving messages (or something periodically recreates agents), each
attempt spawns a new AIAgent — reinitializing MCP server connections,
burning CPU — only to hit the same 400 error again. On a 4-core server,
this pegs an entire core per stuck session and accumulates 300+ minutes
of CPU time over hours.
Fix: add a per-session consecutive failure counter in the gateway runner.
- Track consecutive non-retryable failures per session key
- After 3 consecutive failures (_MAX_CONSECUTIVE_FAILURES), block
further agent creation for that session and notify the user:
'⚠️ This session has failed N times in a row with a non-retryable
error. Use /reset to start a new session.'
- Evict the cached agent when the circuit breaker engages to prevent
stale state from accumulating
- Reset the counter on successful agent runs
- Clear the counter on /reset and /new so users can recover
- Uses getattr() pattern so bare GatewayRunner instances (common in
tests using object.__new__) don't crash
Tests:
- 8 new tests in test_circuit_breaker.py covering counter behavior,
threshold, reset, session isolation, and bare-runner safety
Addresses #7130.
* Revert "fix: circuit breaker stops CPU-burning restart loops on persistent errors"
This reverts commit d848ea7109d62a2fc4ba6da36fc4f0366b5ded94.
* fix: don't evict cached agent on failed runs — prevents MCP restart loop
When a run fails (e.g. invalid model ID → 400) and fallback activated,
the gateway was evicting the cached agent to 'retry primary next time.'
But evicting a failed agent forces a full AIAgent recreation on the next
message — reinitializing MCP server connections, spawning stdio
processes — only to hit the same 400 again. This created a CPU-burning
loop (91%+ for hours, #7130).
The fix: add `and not _run_failed` to the fallback-eviction check.
Failed runs keep the cached agent. The next message reuses it (no MCP
reinit), hits the same error, returns it to the user quickly. The user
can /reset or /model to fix their config.
Successful fallback runs still evict as before so the next message
retries the primary model.
Addresses #7130.
Follow-up fixes for the matrix-nio → mautrix migration:
1. Module-level mautrix.types import now wrapped in try/except with
proper stub classes. Without this, importing gateway.platforms.matrix
crashes the entire gateway when mautrix isn't installed — even for
users who don't use Matrix. The stubs mirror mautrix's real attribute
names so tests that exercise adapter methods (send, reactions, etc.)
work without the real SDK.
2. Removed _ensure_mautrix_mock() from test_matrix_mention.py — it
permanently installed MagicMock modules in sys.modules via setdefault(),
polluting later tests in the suite. No longer needed since the module
imports cleanly without mautrix.
3. Fixed thread persistence tests to use direct class reference in
monkeypatch.setattr() instead of string-based paths, which broke
when the module was reimported by other tests.
4. Moved the module-importability test to a subprocess to prevent it
from polluting sys.modules (reimporting creates a second module object
with different __dict__, breaking patch.object in subsequent tests).
The old nio code only handled RoomMessageText (m.text). The mautrix
rewrite dispatched both m.text and m.notice, which would cause infinite
loops between bots since m.notice is the conventional msgtype for bot
responses in the Matrix ecosystem.
- Add api.session.close() on E2EE dep check and E2EE setup failure
paths (two missing cleanup points from the mautrix migration)
- Replace raw pickle.load/dump with HMAC-SHA256 signed payloads to
prevent arbitrary code execution from a tampered store file
- Extract _resolve_message_context() to deduplicate ~40 lines of
mention/thread/DM gating logic between text and media handlers
- Move mautrix.types imports to module level (16 scattered local

- Parse mention/thread env vars once in __init__ instead of per-message
- Cache _is_bot_mentioned() result instead of calling 3x per event
- Consolidate send_emote/send_notice into shared _send_simple_message()
- Use _is_dm_room() in get_chat_info() instead of inline duplication

- Fix fragile event_ts extraction (double getattr, None safety)
- Clean up leaked aiohttp session on auth failure paths
- Remove redundant trailing _track_thread() calls
Address two bugs found by code review:
1. MemoryCryptoStore loses all E2EE keys on restart — now pickle the
store to disk on disconnect and restore on connect, preserving
Megolm sessions across restarts.
2. Encrypted events buffered for retry were silently dropped after
decryption because _on_encrypted_event registered the event ID
in the dedup set, then _on_room_message rejected it as a
duplicate. Now clear the dedup entry before routing decrypted
events.
Translate all nio SDK calls to mautrix equivalents while preserving the
adapter structure, business logic, and all features (E2EE, reactions,
threading, mention gating, text batching, media caching, voice MSC3245).
Key changes:
- nio.AsyncClient -> mautrix.client.Client + HTTPAPI + MemoryStateStore
- Manual E2EE key management -> OlmMachine with auto key lifecycle
- isinstance(resp, nio.XxxResponse) -> mautrix returns values directly
- add_event_callback per type -> single ROOM_MESSAGE handler with
msgtype dispatch
- Room state (member_count, display_name) via async state store lookups
- Upload/download return ContentURI/bytes directly (no wrapper objects)
Tool progress markers (e.g. `⏰ list`) were injected directly into
SSE delta.content chunks. OpenAI-compatible frontends (Open WebUI,
LobeChat, etc.) store delta.content verbatim as the assistant message
and send it back on subsequent requests. After enough turns, the model
learns to emit these markers as plain text instead of issuing real tool
calls — silently hallucinating tool results without ever running them.
Fix: Send tool progress as a custom `event: hermes.tool.progress` SSE
event instead of mixing it into delta.content. Per the SSE spec, clients
that don't understand a custom event type silently ignore it, so this is
backward-compatible. Frontends that want to render progress indicators
can listen for the custom event without persisting it to conversation
history.
The /v1/runs endpoint already uses structured events — this aligns the
/v1/chat/completions streaming path with the same principle.
Closes#6972
Six platforms (matrix, mattermost, dingtalk, feishu, wecom, homeassistant)
were missing from the session-based discovery loop, causing /channels and
send_message to return empty results on those platforms.
Instead of adding them to the hardcoded tuple (which would break again when
new platforms are added), derive the list dynamically from the Platform enum.
Only infrastructure entries (local, api_server, webhook) are excluded;
Discord and Slack are skipped automatically because their direct builders
already populate the platforms dict.
Reported by sprmn24 in PR #7416.
When two gateway messages arrived concurrently, _set_session_env wrote
HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM/CHAT_ID/CHAT_NAME/THREAD_ID into the process-global
os.environ. Because asyncio tasks share the same process, Message B would
overwrite Message A's values mid-flight, causing background-task notifications
and tool calls to route to the wrong thread/chat.
Replace os.environ with Python's contextvars.ContextVar. Each asyncio task
(and any run_in_executor thread it spawns) gets its own copy, so concurrent
messages never interfere.
Changes:
- New gateway/session_context.py with ContextVar definitions, set/clear/get
helpers, and os.environ fallback for CLI/cron/test backward compatibility
- gateway/run.py: _set_session_env returns reset tokens, _clear_session_env
accepts them for proper cleanup in finally blocks
- All tool consumers updated: cronjob_tools, send_message_tool, skills_tool,
terminal_tool (both notify_on_complete AND check_interval blocks), tts_tool,
agent/skill_utils, agent/prompt_builder
- Tests updated for new contextvar-based API

Two fixes from PR review:
1. Session expiry was looking in _running_agents for the cached agent,
but idle expired sessions live in _agent_cache. Now checks
_agent_cache first, falls back to _running_agents.
2. Global cleanup in stop() was missing process_registry.kill_all(),
so background processes from agents evicted without close() (branch,
fallback) survived shutdown.
Use getattr guard for _agent_cache_lock in _handle_reset_command
because test fixtures may create GatewayRunner without calling
__init__, leaving the attribute unset.
Fixes e2e test failure: test_new_resets_session,
test_new_then_status_reflects_reset, test_new_is_idempotent.
Add 9 tests covering the full zombie process prevention chain:
- TestZombieReproduction: demonstrates that processes survive when
references are dropped without explicit cleanup (the original bug)
- TestAgentCloseMethod: verifies close() calls all cleanup functions,
is idempotent, propagates to children, and continues cleanup even
when individual steps fail
- TestGatewayCleanupWiring: verifies stop() calls close() and that
_evict_cached_agent() does NOT call close() (since it's also used
for non-destructive cache refreshes)
- TestDelegationCleanup: calls the real _run_single_child function and
verifies close() is called on the child agent
Ref: #7131
Wire AIAgent.close() into every gateway code path where an agent's
session is actually ending:
- stop(): close all running agents after interrupt + memory shutdown,
then call cleanup_all_environments() and cleanup_all_browsers() as
a global catch-all
- _session_expiry_watcher(): close agents when sessions expire after
the 5-minute idle timeout
- _handle_reset_command(): close the old agent before evicting it from
cache on /new or /reset
Note: _evict_cached_agent() intentionally does NOT call close() because
it is also used for non-destructive cache refreshes (model switch,
branch, fallback) where tool resources should persist.

Replace the simple DISCORD_IGNORE_NO_MENTION check with bot-aware
multi-agent filtering. When multiple agents share a channel:
- If other bots are @mentioned but this bot is not → stay silent
- If only humans are mentioned but not this bot → stay silent
- Messages with no mentions still flow to _handle_message for the
existing DISCORD_REQUIRE_MENTION check
- DMs are unaffected (always handled)
This prevents both agents from responding when only one is addressed.

- Add gateway setup wizard with QR login flow
- Add platform status check for partially configured state

Telegram's Bot API only allows a specific set of emoji for bot reactions
(the ReactionEmoji enum). ✅ (U+2705) and ❌ (U+274C) are not in that
set, causing on_processing_complete reactions to silently fail with
REACTION_INVALID (caught at debug log level).
Replace with 👍 (U+1F44D) / 👎 (U+1F44E) which are always available in
Telegram's allowed reaction list. The 👀 (eyes) reaction used by
on_processing_start was already valid.

The on_processing_complete handler was never removing the eyes reaction because

When extra.base_url is set in the Telegram platform config, use it as
the base URL for all Telegram API requests instead of api.telegram.org.
This allows agents to route Telegram traffic through the credential
proxy, which injects the real bot token — the VM never sees it.
Also supports extra.base_file_url for file downloads (defaults to
base_url if not set separately).

Follow-up to Dusk1e's PR #7120 (Slack send_image redirect guard):
- Rename _safe_url_for_log -> safe_url_for_log (drop underscore) since
it is now imported cross-module by the Slack adapter
- Add _ssrf_redirect_guard httpx event hook to cache_image_from_url()
and cache_audio_from_url() in base.py — same pattern as vision_tools
and the Slack adapter fix
- Update url_safety.py docstring to reflect broader coverage
- Add regression tests for image/audio redirect blocking + safe passthrough
The API server's _run_agent() was not passing task_id to
run_conversation(), causing a fresh random UUID per request. This meant
every Open WebUI message spun up a new Docker container and tore it down
afterward — making persistent filesystem state impossible.
Two fixes:
1. Pass task_id="default" so all API server conversations share the same
Docker container (matching the design intent: one configured Docker
environment, always the same container).
2. Derive a stable session_id from the system prompt + first user message
hash instead of uuid4(). This stops hermes sessions list from being
polluted with single-message throwaway sessions.
Fixes#3438.
Slack may return an HTML sign-in/redirect page instead of actual media
bytes (e.g. expired token, restricted file access). This adds two layers
of defense:
1. Content-Type check in slack.py rejects text/html responses early
2. Magic-byte validation in base.py's cache_image_from_bytes() rejects
non-image data regardless of source platform
Also adds ValueError guards in wecom.py and email.py so the new
validation doesn't crash those adapters.
Closes#6829
Platforms that don't return a message_id after the first send (Signal,
GitHub webhooks) were causing GatewayStreamConsumer to re-enter the
"first send" path on every tool boundary, posting one platform message
per tool call (observed as 155 PR comments on a single response).
Fix: treat _message_id == "__no_edit__" as a sentinel meaning "platform
accepted the send but cannot be edited". When a tool boundary arrives
in that state, skip the message_id/accumulated/last_sent_text reset so
all continuation text is delivered once via _send_fallback_final rather
than re-posted per segment.
Also make prompt_toolkit imports in hermes_cli/commands.py optional so
gateway and test environments that lack the package can still import
resolve_command, gateway_help_lines, and COMMAND_REGISTRY.
- configure Telegram HTTPXRequest pool/timeouts with env-overridable defaults\n- use separate request/get_updates request objects to reduce pool contention\n- skip fallback-IP transport when proxy is configured (or explicitly disabled)\n\nThis mitigates recurrent pool-timeout failures during polling reconnect/bootstrap (delete_webhook).
Python assertions are stripped when running with `python -O` (optimized
mode), making them unsuitable for runtime error handling.
1. `telegram_network.py:113` — After exhausting all fallback IPs, the code
uses `assert last_error is not None` before `raise last_error`. In
optimized mode, the assert is skipped; if `last_error` is unexpectedly
None, `raise None` produces a confusing `TypeError` instead of a
meaningful error. Replace with an explicit `if` check that raises
`RuntimeError` with a descriptive message.
2. `feishu.py:975` — The `_configure_with_overrides` closure uses
`assert original_configure is not None` as a guard. While the outer
scope only installs this closure when `original_configure` is not None,
the assert would silently disappear in optimized mode. Replace with an
explicit `if` check for defensive safety.
When /background was sent during an active run, it was not in the
platform adapter's bypass list and fell through to the interrupt path
instead of spawning a parallel background task.
Add "background" to the active-session command bypass in the platform
adapter, and add an early return in the gateway runner's running-agent
guard to route /background to _handle_background_command() before it
reaches the default interrupt logic.

Legacy flat stt.model config key (from cli-config.yaml.example and older
versions) was passed as a model override to transcribe_audio() by the
gateway, bypassing provider-specific model resolution. When the provider
was 'local' (faster-whisper), this caused:
ValueError: Invalid model size 'whisper-1'
Changes:
- gateway/run.py, discord.py: stop passing model override — let
transcribe_audio() handle provider-specific model resolution internally
- get_stt_model_from_config(): now provider-aware, reads from the correct
nested section (stt.local.model, stt.openai.model, etc.); ignores
legacy flat key for local provider to prevent model name mismatch
- cli-config.yaml.example: updated STT section to show nested provider
config structure instead of legacy flat key
- config migration v13→v14: moves legacy stt.model to the correct
provider section and removes the flat key

- Add _find_registered_webhooks() helper for reuse
- Crash resilience: check for existing registration before POSTing
(handles restart after unclean shutdown without creating duplicates)
- Accept 200-299 status range (not just 200) for webhook creation

- Add 17 tests covering register/unregister/find/edge cases
**Problem:**
The BlueBubbles iMessage gateway was not receiving incoming messages even though:
1. BlueBubbles Server was properly configured and running
2. Hermes gateway started without errors
3. Webhook listener was started on the configured port
The root cause was that the BlueBubbles adapter only started a local webhook
listener but never registered the webhook URL with the BlueBubbles server via
the API. Without registration, the server doesn't know where to send events.
**Fix:**
1. Added _register_webhook() method that POSTs to /api/v1/webhook with the
listener URL and event types (new-message, updated-message, message)
2. Added _unregister_webhook() method for clean shutdown
3. Both methods handle the case where webhook listens on 0.0.0.0/127.0.0.1
by using 'localhost' as the external hostname
4. Fixed documentation: 'hermes gateway logs' → 'hermes logs gateway'
**API Reference:**
https://docs.bluebubbles.app/server/developer-guides/rest-api-and-webhooks
**Testing:**
- Webhook registration is now automatic when gateway starts
- Failed registration logs a warning but doesn't prevent startup
- Clean shutdown unregisters the webhook

Custom providers defined in config.yaml under were
completely invisible to the /model command in both gateway (Telegram,
Discord, etc.) and CLI. The provider listing skipped them and explicit
switching via --provider failed with "Unknown provider".
Root cause: gateway/run.py, cli.py, and model_switch.py only read the
dict from config, ignoring entirely.
Changes:
- providers.py: add resolve_custom_provider() and extend
resolve_provider_full() to check custom_providers after user_providers
- model_switch.py: propagate custom_providers through switch_model(),
list_authenticated_providers(), and get_authenticated_provider_slugs();
add custom provider section to provider listings
- gateway/run.py: read custom_providers from config, pass to all
model-switch calls
- cli.py: hoist config loading, pass custom_providers to listing and
switch calls
Tests: 4 new regression tests covering listing, resolution, and gateway
command handler. All 71 tests pass.
prompt_builder.py: The `hidden_div` detection pattern uses `.*` which does not
match newlines in Python regex (re.DOTALL is not passed). An attacker can bypass
detection by splitting the style attribute across lines:
`<div style="color:red;\ndisplay: none">injected content</div>`
Replace `.*` with `[\s\S]*?` to match across line boundaries.
credential_files.py: `_load_config_files()` catches all exceptions at DEBUG level
(line 171), making YAML parse failures invisible in production logs. Users whose
credential files silently fail to mount into sandboxes have no diagnostic clue.
Promote to WARNING to match the severity pattern used by the path validation
warnings at lines 150 and 158 in the same function.
webhook.py: `_reload_dynamic_routes()` logs JSON parse failures at WARNING (line
265) but the impact — stale/corrupted dynamic routes persisting silently — warrants
ERROR level to ensure operator visibility in alerting pipelines.

dingtalk.py: The session_webhook URL from incoming DingTalk messages is POSTed to

that only accepts the official DingTalk API origin (https://api.dingtalk.com/).
Also cap _session_webhooks dict at 500 entries with FIFO eviction to prevent
unbounded memory growth from long-running gateway instances.
api_server.py: The X-Hermes-Session-Id request header is accepted and echoed back
into response headers (lines 675, 697) without sanitization. A session ID
containing \r\n enables HTTP response splitting / header injection. Add a check
that rejects session IDs containing control characters (\r, \n, \x00).

Add DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS (env var) / discord.allowed_channels (config.yaml)
support to restrict the bot to only respond in specified channels.
When set, messages from any channel NOT in the allowed list are silently
ignored — even if the bot is @mentioned. This provides a secure default-
deny posture vs the existing ignored_channels which is default-allow.
This is especially useful when bots in other channels may create new
channels dynamically (e.g., project bots) — a blacklist requires constant
maintenance while a whitelist is set-and-forget.
Follows the same config pattern as ignored_channels and free_response_channels:
- Env var: DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS (comma-separated channel IDs)
- Config: discord.allowed_channels (string or list of channel IDs)
- Env var takes precedence over config.yaml
- Empty/unset = no restriction (backward compatible)
Files changed:
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: check allowed_channels before ignored_channels
- gateway/config.py: map discord.allowed_channels → DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS
- hermes_cli/config.py: add allowed_channels to DEFAULT_CONFIG
The session store was copying the ENTIRE parent DM transcript into new
thread sessions. This caused unrelated conversations to bleed across
threads in Slack DMs.
The Slack adapter already handles thread context correctly via
_fetch_thread_context() (conversations.replies API), which fetches
only the actual thread messages. The session-level seeding was both
redundant and harmful.
No other platform (Telegram, Discord) uses DM threads, so the seeding
code path was only triggered by Slack — where it conflicted with the
adapter-level context.
Tests updated to assert thread isolation: all thread sessions start
empty, platform adapters are responsible for injecting thread context.
Salvage of PR #5868 (jarvisxyz). Reported by norbert on Discord.
The gateway /model command stored session overrides in
_session_model_overrides but run_sync() never consulted them when
resolving the model and runtime for the next message. It always read
from config.yaml, so the switch was lost as soon as a new agent was
created.
Two fixes:
1. In run_sync(), apply _session_model_overrides after resolving from
config.yaml/env — the override takes precedence for model, provider,
api_key, base_url, and api_mode.
2. In post-run fallback detection, check whether the model mismatch
(agent.model != config_model) is due to an intentional /model switch
before evicting the cached agent. Without this, the first message
after /model would work (cached agent reused) but the fallback
detector would evict it, causing the next message to revert.
Affects all gateway platforms (Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp,
Signal, Matrix, BlueBubbles, HomeAssistant) since they all share
GatewayRunner._run_agent().
Fixes#6213
Two security hardening changes for the API server:
1. **Startup warning when no API key is configured.**
When `API_SERVER_KEY` is not set, all endpoints accept unauthenticated
requests. This is the default configuration, but operators may not
realize the security implications. A prominent warning at startup
makes the risk visible.
2. **Require authentication for session continuation.**
The `X-Hermes-Session-Id` header allows callers to load and continue
any session stored in state.db. Without authentication, an attacker
who can reach the API server (e.g. via CORS from a malicious page,
or on a shared host) could enumerate session IDs and read conversation
history — which may contain API keys, passwords, code, or other
sensitive data shared with the agent.
Session continuation now returns 403 when no API key is configured,
with a clear error message explaining how to enable the feature.
When a key IS configured, the existing Bearer token check already
gates access.
This is defense-in-depth: the API server is intended for local use,
but defense against cross-origin and shared-host attacks is important
since the default binding is 127.0.0.1 which is reachable from
browsers via DNS rebinding or localhost CORS.
The gateway /usage handler only looked in _running_agents for the agent
object, which is only populated while the agent is actively processing a
message. Between turns (when users actually type /usage), the dict is
empty and the handler fell through to a rough message-count estimate.
The agent object actually lives in _agent_cache between turns (kept for
prompt caching). This fix checks both dicts, with _running_agents taking
priority (mid-turn) and _agent_cache as the between-turns fallback.
Also brings the gateway output to parity with the CLI /usage:
- Model name
- Detailed token breakdown (input, output, cache read, cache write)
- Cost estimation (estimated amount or 'included' for subscriptions)
- Cache token lines hidden when zero (cleaner output)
This fixes Nous Portal rate limit headers not showing up for gateway
users — the data was being captured correctly but the handler could
never see it.
The text batching feature routes TEXT messages through
asyncio.create_task() + asyncio.sleep(delay). Even with delay=0,
the task fires asynchronously and won't complete before synchronous
test assertions. This broke 33 tests across Discord, Matrix, and
WeCom adapters.
When _text_batch_delay_seconds is 0 (the test fixture setting),
dispatch directly to handle_message() instead of going through
the async batching path. This preserves the pre-batching behavior
for tests while keeping batching active in production (default
delay 0.6s).
Feishu already had text batching with a static 0.6s delay. This adds
adaptive delay: waits 2.0s when a chunk is near the ~4096-char split
point since a continuation is almost certain.
Tracks _last_chunk_len on each queued event to determine the delay.
Configurable via HERMES_FEISHU_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT_DELAY_SECONDS (default 2.0).

Ports the adaptive batching pattern from the Telegram adapter.

* feat: API server model name derived from profile name
For multi-user setups (e.g. OpenWebUI), each profile's API server now
advertises a distinct model name on /v1/models:
- Profile 'lucas' -> model ID 'lucas'
- Profile 'admin' -> model ID 'admin'
- Default profile -> 'hermes-agent' (unchanged)
Explicit override via API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME env var or
platforms.api_server.model_name config for custom names.
Resolves friction where OpenWebUI couldn't distinguish multiple
hermes-agent connections all advertising the same model name.

- environment-variables.md: added API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME entry
The overflow split loop required _message_id to be set, but on the
first streamed message (or after a segment break) _message_id is None.
Oversized text fell through to _send_or_edit → adapter.send(), which
split internally — but subsequent edits hit Telegram's 'message too
long' and were silently truncated with '…', cutting off the response.
Add a new code path for the _message_id is None case that uses
truncate_message() (same as the non-streaming path) to split with
proper word/code-fence boundaries and chunk indicators. Each chunk
is sent as a new message via _send_new_chunk().
Properly handles got_done (returns immediately after sending chunks
instead of continuing into an infinite loop) and got_segment_break.

- Treat mpim (multi-party IM / group DM) channels as DMs — no @mention
required, continuous session like 1:1 DMs
- Only add 👀/✅ reactions when bot is directly addressed (DM or
@mention). In listen-all channels (require_mention=false) reacting
to every message would be noisy.
Based on PR #4633 by gunpowder-client-vm, adapted to current main.
Three modes: "none" (default, backward-compatible), "mentions" (accept
bot messages only when they @mention us), "all" (accept all bot messages
except our own, to prevent echo loops).
Configurable via:
slack:
allow_bots: mentions
Or env var: SLACK_ALLOW_BOTS=mentions
Self-message guard always active regardless of mode.

Fixes blockquote > escaping, edit_message raw markdown, ***bold italic***
handling, HTML entity double-escaping (&amp;), Wikipedia URL parens
truncation, and step numbering format. Also adds format_message to the
tool-layer _send_to_platform for consistent formatting across all
delivery paths.
Changes:
- Protect Slack entities (<@user>, <https://...|label>, <!here>) from
escaping passes
- Protect blockquote > markers before HTML entity escaping
- Unescape-before-escape for idempotent HTML entity handling
- ***bold italic*** → *_text_* conversion (before **bold** pass)
- URL regex upgraded to handle balanced parentheses
- mrkdwn:True flag on chat_postMessage payloads
- format_message applied in edit_message and send_message_tool

Port the mention gating pattern from Telegram, Discord, WhatsApp, and
Matrix adapters to the Slack platform adapter.
- Add _slack_require_mention() with explicit-false parsing and env var
fallback (SLACK_REQUIRE_MENTION)
- Add _slack_free_response_channels() with env var fallback
(SLACK_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS)
- Replace hardcoded mention check with configurable gating logic
- Bridge slack config.yaml settings to env vars
- Bridge free_response_channels through the generic platform bridging loop
- Add 26 tests covering config parsing, env fallback, gating logic
Config usage:
slack:
require_mention: false
free_response_channels:
- "C0AQWDLHY9M"
Default behavior unchanged: channels require @mention (backward compatible).

Approval button clicks (Block Kit actions in Slack, CallbackQuery in
Telegram) bypass the normal message authorization flow in gateway/run.py.
Any workspace/group member who can see the approval message could click
Approve to authorize dangerous commands.
Read SLACK_ALLOWED_USERS / TELEGRAM_ALLOWED_USERS env vars directly in
the approval handlers. When an allowlist is configured and the clicking
user is not in it, the click is silently ignored (Slack) or answered
with an error (Telegram). Wildcard '*' permits all users. When no
allowlist is configured, behavior is unchanged (open access).
Based on the idea from PR #6735 by maymuneth, reimplemented to use the
existing env-var-based authorization system rather than a nonexistent
_allowed_user_ids adapter attribute.
1. gateway/platforms/slack.py: Replace check-then-set TOCTOU race on
_approval_resolved with atomic dict.pop(). Two concurrent button
clicks could both pass the guard before either set it to True,
causing double resolve_gateway_approval — which can resolve the
WRONG queued approval when multiple are pending for the same session.
2. hermes_state.py: Add WARNING log and proper fallbacks when
json.loads fails on tool_calls (→ []), reasoning_details (→ None),
and codex_reasoning_items (→ None). Previously, failures were
silently swallowed: tool_calls stayed as a raw string (iterating
yields characters, not objects), and reasoning fields were simply
missing from the dict.

Parse x-ratelimit-* headers from inference API responses (Nous Portal,
OpenRouter, OpenAI-compatible) and display them in the /usage command.
- New agent/rate_limit_tracker.py: parse 12 rate limit headers (RPM/RPH/
TPM/TPH limits, remaining, reset timers), format as progress bars (CLI)
or compact one-liner (gateway)
- Hook into streaming path in run_agent.py: stream.response.headers is
available on the OpenAI SDK Stream object before chunks are consumed
- CLI /usage: appends rate limit section with progress bars + warnings
when any bucket exceeds 80%
- Gateway /usage: appends compact rate limit summary
- 24 unit tests covering parsing, formatting, edge cases
Headers captured per response:
x-ratelimit-{limit,remaining,reset}-{requests,tokens}{,-1h}
Example CLI display:
Nous Rate Limits (captured just now):
Requests/min [░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░] 0.1% 1/800 used (799 left, resets in 59s)
Tokens/hr [░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░] 0.0% 49/336.0M (336.0M left, resets in 52m)
Prevents unbounded memory growth in _assistant_threads dict.
Evicts oldest entries when exceeding _ASSISTANT_THREADS_MAX (5000),
matching the pattern used by _mentioned_threads and _seen_messages.
When a background process with notify_on_complete=True finishes, the
gateway injects a synthetic MessageEvent to notify the session. This
event was constructed without user_id, causing _is_user_authorized()
to reject it and — for DM-origin sessions — trigger the pairing flow,
sending "Hi~ I don't recognize you yet!" with a pairing code to the
chat owner.
Add an `internal` flag to MessageEvent that bypasses authorization
checks for system-generated synthetic events. Only the process watcher
sets this flag; no external/adapter code path can produce it.
Includes 4 regression tests covering the fix and the normal pairing path.
ORIGINAL INCIDENT:
Discord forum descriptions (the topic field on ForumChannel) were invisible
to the agent. When a user set project instructions in a forum's description
(e.g. tool-evaluations), threads created in that forum had no Channel Topic
in their session context. Discovered while evaluating per-forum auto-context
injection for web-tap-terminal development threads.
ISSUE IN THE CODE:
In gateway/platforms/discord.py, all three session entry points
(_handle_message, _build_slash_event, _dispatch_thread_session) read
chat_topic via getattr(channel, 'topic', None). Discord Thread objects
don't carry a topic — only the parent ForumChannel does. So chat_topic
was always None for forum threads, and the Channel Topic line was never
injected into build_session_context_prompt output. The infrastructure to
handle this was already in place — _is_forum_parent() detects forum
channels, _format_thread_chat_name() traverses to the parent, and
build_session_context_prompt() renders Channel Topic when present. The
forum parent was being identified; its topic just wasn't being read.
HOW THIS COMMIT FIXES IT:
Adds _get_effective_topic(channel, is_thread) helper that reads
channel.topic first, then falls back to the parent forum's topic when
the channel is a thread inside a forum. All three session entry points
now call this helper instead of inlining getattr(channel, 'topic', None).
Existing tests pass unchanged.

- Bind exception in warning send handler (was using stale _ne from outer scope)
- Calculate remaining time until timeout correctly: (timeout - warning) // 60
instead of warning // 60 (which equals elapsed time, not remaining)
Introduce gateway_timeout_warning (default 900s) as a pre-timeout alert
layer. When inactivity reaches the warning threshold, a single
notification is sent to the user offering to wait or reset. If
inactivity continues to the gateway_timeout (default 1800s), the full
timeout fires as before.
This gives users a chance to intervene before work is lost on slow
API providers without disabling the safety timeout entirely.
Config: agent.gateway_timeout_warning in config.yaml, or
HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT_WARNING env var (0 = disable warning).
Fixes#4647 — Signal replies duplicated when gateway streaming is enabled.
Root cause: stream_consumer.py did not handle the case where send() returns
success=True but no message_id (Signal behavior). Every stream delta produced
a separate send() call (7+ messages instead of 2), plus the gateway sent
another full duplicate since already_sent was never set.
Changes:
- stream_consumer.py: Add elif branch for success-without-message_id — enters
fallback mode (sets already_sent, disables editing, sends only continuation)
- signal.py send(): Extract timestamp from signal-cli RPC result as message_id
so stream consumer follows normal edit→fallback path
- signal.py: Add public stop_typing() delegating to _stop_typing_indicator()
so base adapter's _keep_typing finally block can clean up typing tasks
- gateway/run.py: Per-platform tool_progress_overrides (#6164) — lets users
set e.g. signal: off while keeping telegram: all
- hermes_cli/config.py: Add tool_progress_overrides to DEFAULT_CONFIG
Refs: #4647, #6164
Add configurable reply-reference behavior for Discord, matching the
existing Telegram (TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE) and Mattermost
(MATTERMOST_REPLY_MODE) implementations.
Modes:
- 'off': never reply-reference the original message
- 'first': reply-reference on first chunk only (default, current behavior)
- 'all': reply-reference on every chunk
Set DISCORD_REPLY_TO_MODE=off in .env to disable reply-to messages.
Changes:
- gateway/config.py: parse DISCORD_REPLY_TO_MODE env var
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: read reply_to_mode from config, respect
it in send() — skip fetch_message entirely when 'off'
- hermes_cli/config.py: add to OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS for hermes setup
- 23 tests covering config, send behavior, env var override
- docs: discord.md env var table + environment-variables.md reference
Closes community request from Stuart on Discord.
- Fire on_session_finalize and on_session_reset in gateway _handle_reset_command()
- Fire on_session_finalize during gateway stop() for each active agent
- Move CLI test from tests/ root to tests/cli/ (matches recent restructure)
- Add 5 gateway tests covering reset hooks, ordering, shutdown, and error handling
- Place on_session_reset after new session is guaranteed to exist (covers
the get_or_create_session fallback path)
Gateway and cron had inconsistent reasoning_effort resolution:
- CLI: config.yaml only (correct)
- Gateway: config.yaml first, env var fallback
- Cron: env var first, config.yaml fallback
All three now read exclusively from agent.reasoning_effort in config.yaml.
Removed HERMES_REASONING_EFFORT env var support entirely — .env is for
secrets only, not behavioral config.
Add button-based exec approval to the Feishu adapter, matching the
existing Discord, Telegram, and Slack implementations.
When the agent encounters a dangerous command, Feishu users now see
an interactive card with four buttons instead of text instructions:
- Allow Once (primary)
- Allow Session
- Always Allow
- Deny (danger)
Implementation:
- send_exec_approval() sends an interactive card via the Feishu
message API with buttons carrying hermes_action in their value dict
- _handle_card_action_event() intercepts approval button clicks
before routing them as synthetic commands, directly calling
resolve_gateway_approval() to unblock the agent thread
- _update_approval_card() replaces the orange approval card with a
green (approved) or red (denied) status card showing who acted
- _approval_state dict tracks pending approval_id → session_key
mappings; cleaned up on resolution
The gateway's existing routing in _approval_notify_sync already checks
getattr(type(adapter), 'send_exec_approval', None) and will
automatically use the button-based flow for Feishu.
Tests: 16 new tests covering send, callback resolution, state
management, card updates, and non-interference with existing card
actions.
When a Discord voice message arrives, the adapter sets event.text to
"(The user sent a message with no text content)" since voice messages
have no text content. The transcription enrichment in
_enrich_message_with_transcription() then prepends the transcript but
leaves the placeholder intact, causing the agent to receive both:
[The user sent a voice message~ Here's what they said: "..."]
(The user sent a message with no text content)
The agent sees this as two separate user turns — one transcribed
and one empty — creating confusing duplicate messages.
Fix: when the transcription succeeds and user_text is only the empty
placeholder, return just the transcript without the redundant placeholder.
When /v1/runs receives an OpenAI-style array of messages as input, all
messages except the last user turn are now extracted as conversation_history.
Previously only the last message was kept, silently discarding earlier
context in multi-turn conversations.
Handles multi-part content blocks by flattening text portions. Only fires
when no explicit conversation_history was provided.
Based on PR #5837 by pradeep7127.
Allow clients to pass explicit conversation_history in /v1/responses and
/v1/runs request bodies instead of relying on server-side response chaining
via previous_response_id. Solves problems with stateless deployments where
the in-memory ResponseStore is lost on restart.
Adds input validation (must be array of {role, content} objects) and clear
precedence: explicit conversation_history > previous_response_id.
Based on PR #5805 by VanBladee, with added input validation.
Commit cc2b56b2 changed the tool_progress_callback signature from
(name, preview, args) to (event_type, name, preview, args, **kwargs)
but the API server's chat completion streaming callback was not updated.
This caused tool calls to not display in Open WebUI because the
callback received arguments in wrong positions.
- Update _on_tool_progress to use new 4-arg signature
- Add event_type filter to only show tool.started events
- Add **kwargs for optional duration/is_error parameters
Telegram's set_message_reaction replaces all reactions in one call,
so _remove_reaction was never called (unlike Discord's additive model).
Default reactions to disabled — users opt in via telegram.reactions: true.
Mirror the Discord reaction pattern for Telegram:
- 👀 (eyes) when message processing begins
- ✅ (check) on successful completion
- ❌ (cross) on failure
Controlled via TELEGRAM_REACTIONS env var or telegram.reactions
in config.yaml (enabled by default, like Discord).
Uses python-telegram-bot's Bot.set_message_reaction() API.
Failures are caught and logged at debug level so they never
break message processing.
- ignored_channels: channels where bot never responds (even when mentioned)
- no_thread_channels: channels where bot responds directly without thread
Both support config.yaml and env vars (DISCORD_IGNORED_CHANNELS,
DISCORD_NO_THREAD_CHANNELS), following existing pattern for
free_response_channels.
Fixes#5881
The webhook adapter stored per-request `deliver`/`deliver_extra` config in
`_delivery_info[chat_id]` during POST handling and consumed it via `.pop()`
inside `send()`. That worked for routes whose agent run produced exactly
one outbound message — the final response — but it broke whenever the
agent emitted any interim status message before the final response.
Status messages flow through the same `send(chat_id, ...)` path as the
final response (see `gateway/run.py::_status_callback_sync` →
`adapter.send(...)`). Common triggers include:
- "🔄 Primary model failed — switching to fallback: ..."
(run_agent.py::_emit_status when `fallback_providers` activates)
- context-pressure / compression notices
- any other lifecycle event routed through `status_callback`
When any of those fired, the first `send()` call popped the entry, so the
subsequent final-response `send()` saw an empty dict and silently
downgraded `deliver_type` from `"telegram"` (or `discord`/`slack`/etc.) to
the default `"log"`. The agent's response was logged to the gateway log
instead of being delivered to the configured cross-platform target — no
warning, no error, just a missing message.
This was easy to hit in practice. Any user with `fallback_providers`
configured saw it the first time their primary provider hiccuped on a
webhook-triggered run. Routes that worked perfectly in dev (where the
primary stays healthy) silently dropped responses in prod.
Fix: read `_delivery_info` with `.get()` so multiple `send()` calls for
the same `chat_id` all see the same delivery config. To keep the dict
bounded without relying on per-send cleanup, add a parallel
`_delivery_info_created` timestamp dict and a `_prune_delivery_info()`
helper that drops entries older than `_idempotency_ttl` (1h, same window
already used by `_seen_deliveries`). Pruning runs on each POST, mirroring
the existing `_seen_deliveries` cleanup pattern.
Worst-case memory footprint is now `rate_limit * TTL = 30/min * 60min =
1800` entries, each ~1KB → under 2 MB. In practice it'll be far smaller
because most webhooks complete in seconds, not the full hour.
Test changes:
- `test_delivery_info_cleaned_after_send` is replaced with
`test_delivery_info_survives_multiple_sends`, which is now the
regression test for this bug — it asserts that two consecutive
`send()` calls both see the delivery config.
- A new `test_delivery_info_pruned_via_ttl` covers the TTL cleanup
behavior.
- The two integration tests that asserted `chat_id not in
adapter._delivery_info` after `send()` now assert the opposite, with
a comment explaining why.
All 40 tests in `tests/gateway/test_webhook_adapter.py` and
`tests/gateway/test_webhook_integration.py` pass. Verified end-to-end
locally against a dynamic `hermes webhook subscribe` route configured
with `--deliver telegram --deliver-chat-id <user>`: with `gpt-5.4` as
the primary (currently flaky) and `claude-opus-4.6` as the fallback,
the fallback notification fires, the agent finishes, and the final
response is delivered to Telegram as expected.
Previously, all/new tool progress modes always hard-truncated previews
to 40 chars, ignoring the display.tool_preview_length config. This made
it impossible for gateway users to see meaningful command/path info
without switching to verbose mode (which shows too much detail).
Now all/new modes read tool_preview_length from config:
- tool_preview_length: 0 (default/unset) → 40 chars (no regression)
- tool_preview_length: 120 → 120-char previews in all/new mode
- verbose mode: unchanged (already respected the config)
Users who want longer previews can set:
display:
tool_preview_length: 120

Move _merge_caption helper from TelegramAdapter to BasePlatformAdapter
so all adapters inherit it. Fix the same substring-containment bug in:
- gateway/platforms/base.py (photo burst merging)
- gateway/run.py (priority photo follow-up merging)
- gateway/platforms/feishu.py (media batch merging)
The original fix only covered telegram.py. The same bug existed in base.py
and run.py (pure substring check) and feishu.py (list membership without
whitespace normalization).
Captions in photo bursts and media group albums were silently dropped when
a shorter caption happened to be a substring of an existing one (e.g.
"Meeting" lost inside "Meeting agenda"). Extract a shared _merge_caption
static helper that splits on "\n\n" and uses exact match with whitespace
normalisation, then use it in both _enqueue_photo_event and
_queue_media_group_event.
Adds 13 unit tests covering the fixed bug scenarios.
Cherry-picked from PR #2671 by Dilee.
Memory plugins (Mem0, Honcho) used static identifiers ('hermes-user',
config peerName) meaning all gateway users shared the same memory bucket.
Changes:
- AIAgent.__init__: add user_id parameter, store as self._user_id
- run_agent.py: include user_id in _init_kwargs passed to memory providers
- gateway/run.py: pass source.user_id to AIAgent in primary + background paths
- Mem0 plugin: prefer kwargs user_id over config default
- Honcho plugin: override cfg.peer_name with gateway user_id when present
CLI sessions (user_id=None) preserve existing defaults. Only gateway
sessions with a real platform user_id get per-user memory scoping.
Reported by plev333.
When the bot sends a message in a thread, track its ts in _bot_message_ts.
When the bot is @mentioned in a thread, register it in _mentioned_threads.
Both sets enable auto-responding to future messages in those threads
without requiring repeated @mentions — making the bot behave like a
team member that stays engaged once a conversation starts.
Channel message gating now checks 4 signals (in order):
1. @mention in this message
2. Reply in a thread the bot started/participated in (_bot_message_ts)
3. Message in a thread where the bot was previously @mentioned (_mentioned_threads)
4. Existing session for this thread (_has_active_session_for_thread — survives restarts)
Thread context fetching now triggers on ANY first-entry path (not just
@mention), so the agent gets context whether it's entering via a mention,
a bot-thread reply, or a mentioned-thread auto-trigger.
Both tracking sets are bounded (5000 cap with prune-oldest-half) to prevent
unbounded memory growth in long-running deployments.
Salvaged from PR #5754 by @hhhonzik. Preserves our existing approval buttons,
thread context fetching, and session key fix. Does NOT include the
edit_message format_message() removal (that was a regression in the original PR).
Tests: 4 new tests for bot-ts tracking and mentioned-thread bounds.
When the agent waits for dangerous-command approval, the typing
indicator (_keep_typing loop) kept refreshing. On Slack's Assistant
API this is critical: assistant_threads_setStatus disables the
compose box, preventing users from typing /approve or /deny.
- Add _typing_paused set + pause/resume methods to BasePlatformAdapter
- _keep_typing skips send_typing when chat_id is paused
- _approval_notify_sync pauses typing before sending approval prompt
- _handle_approve_command / _handle_deny_command resume typing after
Benefits all platforms — no reason to show 'is thinking...' while
the agent is idle waiting for human input.
Slack:
- Add Block Kit interactive buttons for command approval (Allow Once,
Allow Session, Always Allow, Deny) via send_exec_approval()
- Register @app.action handlers for each approval button
- Add _fetch_thread_context() — fetches thread history via
conversations.replies when bot is first @mentioned mid-thread
- Fix _has_active_session_for_thread() to use build_session_key()
instead of manual key construction (fixes session key mismatch bug
where thread_sessions_per_user flag was ignored, ref PR #5833)
Telegram:
- Add InlineKeyboard approval buttons via send_exec_approval()
- Add ea:* callback handling in _handle_callback_query()
- Uses monotonic counter + _approval_state dict to map button clicks
back to session keys (avoids 64-byte callback_data limit)
Both platforms now auto-detected by the gateway runner's
_approval_notify_sync() — any adapter with send_exec_approval() on
its class gets button-based approval instead of text fallback.
Inspired by community PRs #3898 (LevSky22), #2953 (ygd58), #5833
(heathley). Implemented fresh on current main.
Tests: 24 new tests covering button rendering, action handling,
thread context fetching, session key fix, double-click prevention.
16 callsites across 14 files were re-deriving the hermes home path
via os.environ.get('HERMES_HOME', ...) instead of using the canonical
get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants. This breaks profiles — each
profile has its own HERMES_HOME, and the inline fallback defaults to
~/.hermes regardless.
Fixed by importing and calling get_hermes_home() at each site. For
files already inside the hermes process (agent/, hermes_cli/, tools/,
gateway/, plugins/), this is always safe. Files that run outside the
process context (mcp_serve.py, mcp_oauth.py) already had correct
try/except ImportError fallbacks and were left alone.
Skipped: hermes_constants.py (IS the implementation), env_loader.py
(bootstrap), profiles.py (intentionally manipulates the env var),
standalone scripts (optional-skills/, skills/), and tests.
Comprehensive cleanup across 80 files based on automated (ruff, pyflakes, vulture)
and manual analysis of the entire codebase.
Changes by category:
Unused imports removed (~95 across 55 files):
- Removed genuinely unused imports from all major subsystems
- agent/, hermes_cli/, tools/, gateway/, plugins/, cron/
- Includes imports in try/except blocks that were truly unused
(vs availability checks which were left alone)
Unused variables removed (~25):
- Removed dead variables: connected, inner, channels, last_exc,
source, new_server_names, verify, pconfig, default_terminal,
result, pending_handled, temperature, loop
- Dropped unused argparse subparser assignments in hermes_cli/main.py
(12 instances of add_parser() where result was never used)
Dead code removed:
- run_agent.py: Removed dead ternary (None if False else None) and
surrounding unreachable branch in identity fallback
- run_agent.py: Removed write-only attribute _last_reported_tool
- hermes_cli/providers.py: Removed dead @property decorator on
module-level function (decorator has no effect outside a class)
- gateway/run.py: Removed unused MCP config load before reconnect
- gateway/platforms/slack.py: Removed dead SessionSource construction
Undefined name bugs fixed (would cause NameError at runtime):
- batch_runner.py: Added missing logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
- tools/environments/daytona.py: Added missing Dict and Path imports
Unnecessary global statements removed (14):
- tools/terminal_tool.py: 5 functions declared global for dicts
they only mutated via .pop()/[key]=value (no rebinding)
- tools/browser_tool.py: cleanup thread loop only reads flag
- tools/rl_training_tool.py: 4 functions only do dict mutations
- tools/mcp_oauth.py: only reads the global
- hermes_time.py: only reads cached values
Inefficient patterns fixed:
- startswith/endswith tuple form: 15 instances of
x.startswith('a') or x.startswith('b') consolidated to
x.startswith(('a', 'b'))
- len(x)==0 / len(x)>0: 13 instances replaced with pythonic
truthiness checks (not x / bool(x))
- in dict.keys(): 5 instances simplified to in dict
- Redefined unused name: removed duplicate _strip_mdv2 import in
send_message_tool.py
Other fixes:
- hermes_cli/doctor.py: Replaced undefined logger.debug() with pass
- hermes_cli/config.py: Consolidated chained .endswith() calls
Test results: 3934 passed, 17 failed (all pre-existing on main),
19 skipped. Zero regressions.
* fix: repair 57 failing CI tests across 14 files
Categories of fixes:
**Test isolation under xdist (-n auto):**
- test_hermes_logging: Strip ALL RotatingFileHandlers before each test
to prevent handlers leaked from other xdist workers from polluting counts
- test_code_execution: Force TERMINAL_ENV=local in setUp — prevents Modal
AuthError when another test leaks TERMINAL_ENV=modal
- test_timezone: Same TERMINAL_ENV fix for execute_code timezone tests
- test_codex_execution_paths: Mock _resolve_turn_agent_config to ensure
model resolution works regardless of xdist worker state
**Matrix adapter tests (nio not installed in CI):**
- Add _make_fake_nio() helper with real response classes for isinstance()
checks in production code
- Replace MagicMock(spec=nio.XxxResponse) with fake_nio instances
- Wrap production method calls with patch.dict('sys.modules', {'nio': ...})
so import nio succeeds in method bodies
- Use try/except instead of pytest.importorskip for nio.crypto imports
(importorskip can be fooled by MagicMock in sys.modules)
- test_matrix_voice: Skip entire file if nio is a mock, not just missing
**Stale test expectations:**
- test_cli_provider_resolution: _prompt_provider_choice now takes **kwargs
(default param added); mock getpass.getpass alongside input
- test_anthropic_oauth_flow: Mock getpass.getpass (code switched from input)
- test_gemini_provider: Mock models.dev + OpenRouter API lookups to test
hardcoded defaults without external API variance
- test_code_execution: Add notify_on_complete to blocked terminal params
- test_setup_openclaw_migration: Mock prompt_choice to select 'Full setup'
(new quick-setup path leads to _require_tty → sys.exit in CI)
- test_skill_manager_tool: Patch get_all_skills_dirs alongside SKILLS_DIR
so _find_skill searches tmp_path, not real ~/.hermes/skills/
**Missing attributes in object.__new__ test runners:**
- test_platform_reconnect: Add session_store to _make_runner()
- test_session_race_guard: Add hooks, _running_agents_ts, session_store,
delivery_router to _make_runner()
**Production bug fix (gateway/run.py):**
- Fix sentinel eviction race: _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL was immediately
evicted by the stale-detection logic because sentinels have no
get_activity_summary() method, causing _stale_idle=inf >= timeout.
Guard _should_evict with 'is not _AGENT_PENDING_SENTINEL'.
* fix: address remaining CI failures
- test_setup_openclaw_migration: Also mock _offer_launch_chat (called at
end of both quick and full setup paths)
- test_code_execution: Move TERMINAL_ENV=local to module level to protect
ALL test classes (TestEnvVarFiltering, TestExecuteCodeEdgeCases,
TestInterruptHandling, TestHeadTailTruncation) from xdist env leaks
- test_matrix: Use try/except for nio.crypto imports (importorskip can be
fooled by MagicMock in sys.modules under xdist)
* feat: notify_on_complete for background processes
When terminal(background=true, notify_on_complete=true), the system
auto-triggers a new agent turn when the process exits — no polling needed.
Changes:
- ProcessSession: add notify_on_complete field
- ProcessRegistry: add completion_queue, populate on _move_to_finished()
- Terminal tool: add notify_on_complete parameter to schema + handler
- CLI: drain completion_queue after agent turn AND during idle loop
- Gateway: enhanced _run_process_watcher injects synthetic MessageEvent
on completion, triggering a full agent turn
- Checkpoint persistence includes notify_on_complete for crash recovery
- code_execution_tool: block notify_on_complete in sandbox scripts
- 15 new tests covering queue mechanics, checkpoint round-trip, schema
* docs: update terminal tool descriptions for notify_on_complete
- background: remove 'ONLY for servers' language, describe both patterns
(long-lived processes AND long-running tasks with notify_on_complete)
- notify_on_complete: more prescriptive about when to use it
- TERMINAL_TOOL_DESCRIPTION: remove 'Do NOT use background for builds'
guidance that contradicted the new feature
* fix(gateway): /stop and /new bypass Level 1 active-session guard
The base adapter's Level 1 guard intercepted ALL messages while an
agent was running, including /stop and /new. These commands were queued
as pending messages instead of being dispatched to the gateway runner's
Level 2 handler. When the agent eventually stopped (via the interrupt
mechanism), the command text leaked into the conversation as a user
message — the model would receive '/stop' as input and respond to it.
Fix: Add /stop, /new, and /reset to the bypass set in base.py alongside
/approve, /deny, and /status. Consolidate the three separate bypass
blocks into one. Commands in the bypass set are dispatched inline to the
gateway runner, where Level 2 handles them correctly (hard-kill for
/stop, session reset for /new).
Also add a safety net in _run_agent's pending-message processing: if the
pending text resolves to a known slash command, discard it instead of
passing it to the agent. This catches edge cases where command text
leaks through the interrupt_message fallback.
Refs: #5244
* test: regression tests for command bypass of active-session guard
17 tests covering:
- /stop, /new, /reset bypass the Level 1 guard when agent is running
- /approve, /deny, /status bypass (existing behavior, now tested)
- Regular text and unknown commands still queued (not bypassed)
- File paths like '/path/to/file' not treated as commands
- Telegram @botname suffix handled correctly
- Safety net command resolution (resolve_command detects known commands)
- Raise max_models from 8 to 50 so all curated models come through
- Add _build_model_keyboard() helper with 8-per-page pagination
- Next ▶ / ◀ Prev buttons with page counter (e.g. 2/4)
- mg:<page> callback data for page navigation
- Catch-all query.answer() for noop buttons
Discord doesn't fire the select callback when clicking an already-selected
default option (no change detected). This prevented users from selecting
the current provider to browse its models. The 'current' indicator is
already shown via the description field.
When streaming was enabled on the gateway, the stream consumer created a
single message at the start and kept editing it as tokens arrived. Tool
progress messages were sent as separate messages below it. Since edits
don't change message position on Telegram/Matrix/Discord, the final
response ended up stuck above all tool progress messages — users had to
scroll up past potentially dozens of tool call lines to read the answer.
The agent already sends stream_delta_callback(None) at tool boundaries
(before _execute_tool_calls). The stream consumer was ignoring this
signal. Now it treats None as a segment break: finalizes the current
message (removes cursor), resets _message_id, and the next text chunk
creates a fresh message below the tool progress messages.
Timeline before:
[msg 1: 'Let me search...' → edits → 'Here is the answer'] ← top
[msg 2: tool progress lines] ← bottom
Timeline after:
[msg 1: 'Let me search...'] ← top
[msg 2: tool progress lines]
[msg 3: 'Here is the answer'] ← bottom (visible)

/model with no args now shows an interactive UI on Telegram and Discord
instead of a text list:
Telegram: Inline keyboard buttons — two-step drill-down.
Step 1: Provider buttons with model counts (e.g. 'OpenRouter (15)')
Step 2: Model buttons within the selected provider
Edits the same message in-place as the user navigates.
Back/Cancel buttons for navigation.
Discord: Embed + Select dropdown menus via discord.ui.View.
Step 1: Provider dropdown with model counts
Step 2: Model dropdown within the selected provider
Back/Cancel buttons. Auth-gated to allowed users.
Platforms without picker support (Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, etc.)
fall back to the existing text list.
/model <name> continues to work as a direct text switch on all
platforms — the interactive picker is only for bare /model.
Implementation:
- TelegramAdapter.send_model_picker() + _handle_model_picker_callback()
with compact callback_data (mp:/mm:/mb/mx, all within 64-byte limit)
- DiscordAdapter.send_model_picker() + ModelPickerView (discord.ui.View)
with Select menus (up to 25 options per dropdown)
- GatewayRunner._handle_model_command() detects adapter capability via
getattr(type(adapter), 'send_model_picker', None) (safe with mocks)
and sends picker with async callback closure for the switch logic
- Callback performs full switch: switch_model(), cached agent update,
session override, pending model note — same as /model <name>
When a user replies in a Slack thread where the bot has an active
conversation session, the bot now processes the message even without
an explicit @mention. This improves UX for ongoing threaded
discussions.
Changes:
- Added set_session_store() to BasePlatformAdapter for adapters to
check active sessions
- Modified SlackAdapter to detect thread replies and check if a
session exists for that thread before requiring @mentions
- Updated GatewayRunner to inject the session store into adapters
- Added comprehensive tests for the new behavior
Fixes: Thread replies without @jarvis are now processed if there is
an active session, matching user expectations for conversation flow
The edit_message method was sending raw content directly to Slack's
chat_update API without converting standard markdown to Slack's mrkdwn
format. This caused broken formatting and malformed URLs (e.g., trailing
** from bold syntax became part of clickable links → 404 errors).
The send() method already calls format_message() to handle this conversion,
but edit_message() was bypassing it. This change ensures edited messages
receive the same markdown → mrkdwn transformation as new messages.
Closes: PR #5558 formatting issue where links had trailing markdown syntax.

Reapply local reconnect and ping settings after the Feishu SDK refreshes its client config so user-provided websocket tuning actually takes effect.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Allow Feishu websocket keepalive timing to be configured via platform
extra config so disconnects can be detected faster in unstable networks.
New optional extra settings:
- ws_ping_interval
- ws_ping_timeout
These values are applied only when explicitly configured. Invalid values
fall back to the websocket library defaults by leaving the options unset.
This complements the reconnect timing settings added previously and helps
reduce total recovery time after network interruptions.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Allow users to configure websocket reconnect behavior via platform extra
config to reduce reconnect latency in production environments.
The official Feishu SDK defaults to:
- First reconnect: random jitter 0-30 seconds
- Subsequent retries: 120 second intervals
This can cause 20-30 second delays before reconnection after network
interruptions. This commit makes these values configurable while keeping
the SDK defaults for backward compatibility.
Configuration via ~/.hermes/config.yaml:
```yaml
platforms:
feishu:
extra:
ws_reconnect_nonce: 0 # Disable first-reconnect jitter (default: 30)
ws_reconnect_interval: 3 # Retry every 3 seconds (default: 120)
```
Invalid values (negative numbers, non-integers) fall back to SDK defaults.

This commit fixes two critical bugs in the Feishu adapter that affect
message reliability and process lifecycle.
**Bug Fix 1: Intermittent Message Drops**
Root cause: Event handler was created once in __init__ and reused across
reconnects, causing callbacks to capture stale loop references. When the
adapter disconnected and reconnected, old callbacks continued firing with
invalid loop references, resulting in dropped messages with warnings:
"[Feishu] Dropping inbound message before adapter loop is ready"
Fix:
- Rebuild event handler on each connect (websocket/webhook)
- Clear handler on disconnect
- Ensure callbacks always capture current valid loop
- Add defensive loop.is_closed() checks with getattr for test compatibility
- Unify webhook dispatch path to use same loop checks as websocket mode
**Bug Fix 2: Process Hangs on Ctrl+C / SIGTERM**
Root cause: Feishu SDK's websocket client runs in a background thread with
an infinite _select() loop that never exits naturally. The thread was never
properly joined on disconnect, causing processes to hang indefinitely after
Ctrl+C or gateway stop commands.
Fix:
- Store reference to thread-local event loop (_ws_thread_loop)
- On disconnect, cancel all tasks in thread loop and stop it gracefully
via call_soon_threadsafe()
- Await thread future with 10s timeout
- Clean up pending tasks in thread's finally block before closing loop
- Add detailed debug logging for disconnect flow
**Additional Improvements:**
- Add regression tests for disconnect cleanup and webhook dispatch
- Ensure all event callbacks check loop readiness before dispatching
Tested on Linux with websocket mode. All Feishu tests pass.

Two issues caused Matrix E2EE to silently not work in encrypted rooms:
1. When matrix-nio is installed without the [e2e] extra (no python-olm /
libolm), nio.crypto.ENCRYPTION_ENABLED is False and client.olm is
never initialized. The adapter logged warnings but returned True from
connect(), so the bot appeared online but could never decrypt messages.
Now: check_matrix_requirements() and connect() both hard-fail with a
clear error message when MATRIX_ENCRYPTION=true but E2EE deps are
missing.
2. Without a stable device_id, the bot gets a new device identity on each
restart. Other clients see it as "unknown device" and refuse to share
Megolm session keys. Now: MATRIX_DEVICE_ID env var lets users pin a
stable device identity that persists across restarts and is passed to
nio.AsyncClient constructor + restore_login().
Changes:
- gateway/platforms/matrix.py: add _check_e2ee_deps(), hard-fail in
connect() and check_matrix_requirements(), MATRIX_DEVICE_ID support
in constructor + restore_login
- gateway/config.py: plumb MATRIX_DEVICE_ID into platform extras
- hermes_cli/config.py: add MATRIX_DEVICE_ID to OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS
Closes#3521
The Mattermost adapter downloads file attachments correctly but
never updates msg_type from TEXT to DOCUMENT. This means the
document enrichment block in gateway/run.py (which requires
MessageType.DOCUMENT) never executes — text files are not
inlined, and the agent is never notified about attached files.
The user sends a file, the adapter downloads it to the local
cache, but the agent sees an empty message and responds with
'I didn't receive any file'.
Set msg_type to DOCUMENT when file_ids is non-empty, matching
the behavior of the Telegram and Discord adapters.
The _async_flush_memories() helper accepts (session_id) but both the
/new and /resume handlers passed two arguments (session_id, session_key).
The TypeError was silently swallowed at DEBUG level, so memory extraction
never ran when users typed /new or /resume.
One call site (the session expiry watcher) was already fixed in 9c96f669,
but /new and /resume were missed.
- gateway/run.py:3247 — remove stray session_key from /new handler
- gateway/run.py:4989 — remove stray session_key from /resume handler
- tests/gateway/test_resume_command.py:222 — update test assertion
- {__raw__} in webhook prompt templates dumps the full JSON payload (truncated at 4000 chars)
- _deliver_cross_platform now passes thread_id/message_thread_id from deliver_extra as metadata, enabling Telegram forum topic delivery
- Tests for both features
The canonical config key for model name is model.default (used by setup,
auth, runtime_provider, profile list, and CLI startup). But /model --global
wrote to model.name in both gateway and CLI paths.
This caused:
- hermes profile list showing the old model (reads model.default)
- Gateway restart reverting to the old model (_resolve_gateway_model reads model.default)
- CLI startup using the old model (main.py reads model.default)
The only reason it appeared to work in Telegram was the cached agent
staying alive with the in-place switch.
Fix: change all 3 write/read sites to use model.default.
Centralize the skill → slash command registration that Telegram already had
in commands.py so Discord uses the exact same priority system, filtering,
and cap enforcement:
1. Core/built-in commands (never trimmed)
2. Plugin commands (never trimmed)
3. Skill commands (fill remaining slots, alphabetical, only tier trimmed)
Changes:
hermes_cli/commands.py:
- Rename _TG_NAME_LIMIT → _CMD_NAME_LIMIT (32 chars shared by both platforms)
- Rename _clamp_telegram_names → _clamp_command_names (generic)
- Extract _collect_gateway_skill_entries() — shared plugin + skill
collection with platform filtering, name sanitization, description
truncation, and cap enforcement
- Refactor telegram_menu_commands() to use the shared helper
- Add discord_skill_commands() that returns (name, desc, cmd_key) triples
- Preserve _sanitize_telegram_name() for Telegram-specific name cleaning
gateway/platforms/discord.py:
- Call discord_skill_commands() from _register_slash_commands()
- Create app_commands.Command per skill entry with cmd_key callback
- Respect 100-command global Discord limit
- Log warning when skills are skipped due to cap
Backward-compat aliases preserved for _TG_NAME_LIMIT and
_clamp_telegram_names.
Tests: 9 new tests (7 Discord + 2 backward-compat), 98 total pass.
Inspired by PR #5498 (sprmn24). Closes#5480.
The Signal adapter inherited base class defaults for send_image_file(),
send_voice(), and send_video() which only sent the file path as text
(e.g. '🖼️ Image: /tmp/chart.png') instead of actually delivering the file
as a Signal attachment.
When agent responses contain MEDIA:/path/to/file tags, the gateway
media pipeline extracts them and routes through these methods by file
type. Without proper overrides, image/audio/video files were never
actually delivered to Signal users.
Extract a shared _send_attachment() helper that handles all file
validation, size checking, group/DM routing, and RPC dispatch. The four
public methods (send_document, send_image_file, send_voice, send_video)
now delegate to this helper, following the same pattern used by WhatsApp
(_send_media_to_bridge) and Discord (_send_file_attachment).
The helper also uses a single stat() call with try/except FileNotFoundError
instead of the previous exists() + stat() two-syscall pattern, eliminating
a TOCTOU race. As a bonus, send_document() now gains the 100MB size check
that was previously missing (inconsistency with send_image).
Add 25 tests covering all methods plus MEDIA: tag extraction integration,
method-override guards, and send_document's new size check.
Fixes#5105
These commands were defined in the central command registry and handled
by the gateway runner, but not registered as native Discord slash commands
via @tree.command(). This meant they didn't appear in Discord's slash
command picker UI.
Reported by community user — /queue worked on Telegram but not Discord.
Add validate_config_structure() that catches common config.yaml mistakes:
- custom_providers as dict instead of list (missing '-' in YAML)
- fallback_model accidentally nested inside another section
- custom_providers entries missing required fields (name, base_url)
- Missing model section when custom_providers is configured
- Root-level keys that look like misplaced custom_providers fields
Surface these diagnostics at three levels:
1. Startup: print_config_warnings() runs at CLI and gateway module load,
so users see issues before hitting cryptic errors
2. Error time: 'Unknown provider' errors in auth.py and model_switch.py
now include config diagnostics with fix suggestions
3. Doctor: 'hermes doctor' shows a Config Structure section with all
issues and fix hints
Also adds a warning log in runtime_provider.py when custom_providers
is a dict (previously returned None silently).
Motivated by a Discord user who had malformed custom_providers YAML
and got only 'Unknown Provider' with no guidance on what was wrong.
17 new tests covering all validation paths.
Threads (Telegram forum topics, Discord threads, Slack threads) now default
to shared sessions where all participants see the same conversation. This is
the expected UX for threaded conversations where multiple users @mention the
bot and interact collaboratively.
Changes:
- build_session_key(): when thread_id is present, user_id is no longer
appended to the session key (threads are shared by default)
- New config: thread_sessions_per_user (default: false) — opt-in to restore
per-user isolation in threads if needed
- Sender attribution: messages in shared threads are prefixed with
[sender name] so the agent can tell participants apart
- System prompt: shared threads show 'Multi-user thread' note instead of
a per-turn User line (avoids busting prompt cache)
- Wired through all callers: gateway/run.py, base.py, telegram.py, feishu.py
- Regular group messages (no thread) remain per-user isolated (unchanged)
- DM threads are unaffected (they have their own keying logic)
Closes community request from demontut_ re: thread-based shared sessions.
The gateway previously used a hard wall-clock asyncio.wait_for timeout
that killed agents after a fixed duration regardless of activity. This
punished legitimate long-running tasks (subagent delegation, reasoning
models, multi-step research).
Now uses an inactivity-based polling loop that checks the agent's
built-in activity tracker (get_activity_summary) every 5 seconds. The
agent can run indefinitely as long as it's actively calling tools or
receiving API responses. Only fires when the agent has been completely
idle for the configured duration.
Changes:
- Replace asyncio.wait_for with asyncio.wait poll loop checking
agent idle time via get_activity_summary()
- Add agent.gateway_timeout config.yaml key (default 1800s, 0=unlimited)
- Update stale session eviction to use agent idle time instead of
pure wall-clock (prevents evicting active long-running tasks)
- Preserve all existing diagnostic logging and user-facing context
Inspired by PR #4864 (Mibayy) and issue #4815 (BongSuCHOI).
Reimplemented on current main using existing _touch_activity()
infrastructure rather than a parallel tracker.
Agent activity tracking:
- Add _last_activity_ts, _last_activity_desc, _current_tool to AIAgent
- Touch activity on: API call start/complete, tool start/complete,
first stream chunk, streaming request start
- Public get_activity_summary() method for external consumers
Gateway timeout diagnostics:
- Timeout message now includes what the agent was doing when killed:
actively working vs stuck on a tool vs waiting on API response
- Includes iteration count, last activity description, seconds since
last activity — users can distinguish legitimate long tasks from
genuine hangs
- 'Still working' notifications now show iteration count and current
tool instead of just elapsed time
- Stale lock eviction logs include agent activity state for debugging
Stream stale timeout:
- _emit_status when stale stream is detected (was log-only) — gateway
users now see 'No response from provider for Ns' with model and
context size
- Improved logger.warning with model name and estimated context size
Error path notifications (gateway-visible via _emit_status):
- Context compression attempts now use _emit_status (was _vprint only)
- Non-retryable client errors emit summary before aborting
- Max retry exhaustion emits error summary (was _vprint only)
- Rate limit exhaustion emits specific rate-limit message
These were all CLI-visible but silent to gateway users, which is why
people on Telegram/Discord saw generic 'request failed' messages
without explanation.
Only request the privileged members intent when DISCORD_ALLOWED_USERS includes non-numeric entries that need username resolution. Also release the Discord token lock when startup fails so retries and restarts are not blocked by a stale lock.\n\nAdds regression tests for conditional intents and startup lock cleanup.
Plain functions imported as class attributes in APIServerAdapter get
auto-bound as methods via Python's descriptor protocol. Every
self._cron_*() call injected self as the first positional argument,
causing TypeError on all 8 cron API endpoints at runtime.
Wrap each import with staticmethod() so self._cron_*() calls dispatch
correctly without modifying any call sites.

Previously, typing a /command that isn't a built-in, plugin, or skill
would silently fall through to the LLM as plain text. The model often
interprets it as a loose instruction and invents unrelated tool calls —
e.g. a stray /claude_code slipped through and the model fabricated a
delegate_task invocation that got stuck in an OAuth loop.
Now we check GATEWAY_KNOWN_COMMANDS after the skill / plugin /
unavailable-skill lookups and return an actionable message pointing the
user at /commands. The user gets feedback, and the agent doesn't waste
a round-trip guessing what /foo-bar was supposed to mean.
Telegram's Bot API disallows hyphens in command names, so
_build_telegram_menu registers /claude-code as /claude_code. When the
user taps it from autocomplete, the gateway dispatch did a direct
lookup against skill_cmds (keyed on the hyphenated form) and missed,
silently falling through to the LLM as plain text. The model would
then typically call delegate_task, spawning a Hermes subagent instead
of invoking the intended skill.
Normalize underscores to hyphens in skill and plugin command lookup,
matching the existing pattern in _check_unavailable_skill.
Telegram polling can inherit a stale webhook registration when a deployment
switches transport modes, which leaves getUpdates idle even though the gateway
starts cleanly. Outbound send also treats Telegram retry_after responses as
terminal errors, so brief flood control can drop tool progress and replies.
Constraint: Keep the PR narrowly scoped to upstream/main Telegram adapter behavior
Rejected: Port OpenClaw's broader polling supervisor and offset persistence | too broad for an isolated fix PR
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Polling mode should clear webhook state before starting getUpdates, and send-path retry logic must distinguish flood control from timeouts
Tested: uv run --extra dev pytest tests/gateway/test_telegram_* -q
Not-tested: Live Telegram webhook-to-polling migration and real Bot API 429 behavior
When an agent was actively processing a message, /status sent via Telegram
(or any gateway) was queued as a pending interrupt instead of being dispatched
immediately. The base platform adapter's handle_message() only had special-case
bypass logic for /approve and /deny, so /status fell through to the default
interrupt path and was never processed as a system command.
Apply the same bypass pattern used by /approve//deny: detect cmd == 'status'
inside the active-session guard, dispatch directly to the message handler, and
send the response without touching session lifecycle or interrupt state.
Adds a regression test that verifies /status is dispatched and responded to
immediately even when _active_sessions contains an entry for the session.
The _session_expiry_watcher retried failed memory flushes forever
because exceptions were caught at debug level without setting
memory_flushed=True. Expired sessions with transient failures
(rate limits, network errors) would retry every 5 minutes
indefinitely, burning API quota and blocking gateway message
processing via 429 rate limit cascades.
Observed case: a March 19 session retried 28+ times over ~17 days,
causing repeated 429 errors that made Telegram unresponsive.
Add a per-session failure counter (_flush_failures) that gives up
after 3 consecutive attempts and marks the session as flushed to
break the loop.
The API server platform never passed fallback_model to AIAgent(),
so the fallback provider chain was always empty for requests through
the OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Load it via GatewayApp._load_fallback_model()
to match the behavior of Telegram/Discord/Slack platforms.

Salvaged from PRs #3767 (chalkers), #5236 (ygd58), #2641 (buntingszn).
Three improvements to Matrix cron delivery:
1. Live adapter path: when the gateway is running, cron delivery now uses
the connected MatrixAdapter via run_coroutine_threadsafe instead of
the standalone HTTP PUT. This enables delivery to E2EE rooms where
the raw HTTP path cannot encrypt. Falls back to standalone on failure.
Threads adapters + event loop from gateway -> cron ticker -> tick() ->
_deliver_result(). (from #3767)
2. HTML formatted_body: _send_matrix() now converts markdown to HTML
using the optional markdown library, with h1-h6 to bold conversion
for Element X compatibility. Falls back to plain text if markdown
is not installed. Also adds random bytes to txn_id to prevent
collisions. (from #5236)
3. Origin fallback: when deliver="origin" but origin is null (jobs
created via API/scripts), falls back to HOME_CHANNEL env vars
in order: matrix -> telegram -> discord -> slack. (from #2641)

* feat(gateway): live-stream /update output + forward interactive prompts
Adds real-time output streaming and interactive prompt forwarding for
the gateway /update command, so users on Telegram/Discord/etc see the
full update progress and can respond to prompts (stash restore, config
migration) without needing terminal access.
Changes:
hermes_cli/main.py:
- Add --gateway flag to 'hermes update' argparse
- Add _gateway_prompt() file-based IPC function that writes
.update_prompt.json and polls for .update_response
- Modify _restore_stashed_changes() to accept optional input_fn
parameter for gateway mode prompt forwarding
- cmd_update() uses _gateway_prompt when --gateway is set, enabling
interactive stash restore and config migration prompts
gateway/run.py:
- _handle_update_command: spawn with --gateway flag and
PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 for real-time output flushing
- Store session_key in .update_pending.json for cross-restart
session matching
- Add _update_prompt_pending dict to track sessions awaiting
update prompt responses
- Replace _watch_for_update_completion with _watch_update_progress:
streams output chunks every ~4s, detects .update_prompt.json and
forwards prompts to the user, handles completion/failure/timeout
- Add update prompt interception in _handle_message: when a prompt
is pending, the user's next message is written to .update_response
instead of being processed normally
- Preserve _send_update_notification as legacy fallback for
post-restart cases where adapter isn't available yet
File-based IPC protocol:
- .update_prompt.json: written by update process with prompt text,
default value, and unique ID
- .update_response: written by gateway with user's answer
- .update_output.txt: existing, now streamed in real-time
- .update_exit_code: existing completion marker
Tests: 16 new tests covering _gateway_prompt IPC, output streaming,
prompt detection/forwarding, message interception, and cleanup.
* feat: interactive buttons for update prompts (Telegram + Discord)
Telegram: Inline keyboard with ✓ Yes / ✗ No buttons. Clicking a button
answers the callback query, edits the message to show the choice, and
writes .update_response directly. CallbackQueryHandler registered on
the update_prompt: prefix.
Discord: UpdatePromptView (discord.ui.View) with green Yes / red No
buttons. Follows the ExecApprovalView pattern — auth check, embed color
update, disabled-after-click. Writes .update_response on click.
All platforms: /approve and /deny (and /yes, /no) now work as shorthand
for yes/no when an update prompt is pending. The text fallback message
instructs users to use these commands. Raw message interception still
works as a fallback for non-command responses.
Gateway watcher checks adapter for send_update_prompt method (class-level
check to avoid MagicMock false positives) and falls back to text prompt
with /approve instructions when unavailable.
* fix: block /update on non-messaging platforms (API, webhooks, ACP)
Add _UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS frozenset that explicitly lists messaging
platforms where /update is permitted. API server, webhook, and ACP
platforms get a clear error directing them to run hermes update from
the terminal instead.
ACP and API server already don't reach _handle_message (separate
codepaths), and webhooks have distinct session keys that can't collide
with messaging sessions. This guard is belt-and-suspenders.
TimedOut is a subclass of NetworkError in python-telegram-bot. The
inner retry loop in send() and the outer _send_with_retry() in base.py
both treated it as a transient connection error and retried — but
send_message is not idempotent. When the request reaches Telegram but
the HTTP response times out, the message is already delivered. Retrying
sends duplicates. Worst case: up to 9 copies (inner 3x × outer 3x).
Inner loop (telegram.py):
- Import TimedOut separately, isinstance-check before generic
NetworkError retry (same pattern as BadRequest carve-out from #3390)
- Re-raise immediately — no retry
- Mark as retryable=False in outer exception handler
Outer loop (base.py):
- Remove 'timeout', 'timed out', 'readtimeout', 'writetimeout' from
_RETRYABLE_ERROR_PATTERNS (read/write timeouts are delivery-ambiguous)
- Add 'connecttimeout' (safe — connection never established)
- Keep 'network' (other platforms still need it)
- Add _is_timeout_error() + early return to prevent plain-text fallback
on timeout errors (would also cause duplicate delivery)
Connection errors (ConnectionReset, ConnectError, etc.) are still
retried — these fail before the request reaches the server.

bug and proposing fixes.
Closes#3899, closes#3904.
When streaming is enabled, the GatewayStreamConsumer sends raw text
chunks directly to the platform without post-processing. This causes
MEDIA:/path/to/file tags and [[audio_as_voice]] directives to appear
as visible text in the user's chat instead of being stripped.
The non-streaming path already handles this correctly via
extract_media() in base.py, but the streaming path was missing
equivalent cleanup.
Add _clean_for_display() to GatewayStreamConsumer that strips MEDIA:
tags and internal markers before any text reaches the platform. The
actual media file delivery is unaffected — _deliver_media_from_response()
in gateway/run.py still extracts files from the agent's final_response
(separate from the stream consumer's display text).
Reported by Ao [FotM] on Discord.
Move mention stripping outside the `if not is_dm` guard so mentions
are stripped in DMs too. Remove the bare-mention early return so a
message containing only a mention passes through as empty string,
matching Discord's behavior.

* feat: add /branch (/fork) command for session branching
Inspired by Claude Code's /branch command. Creates a copy of the current
session's conversation history in a new session, allowing the user to
explore a different approach without losing the original.
Works like 'git checkout -b' for conversations:
- /branch — auto-generates a title from the parent session
- /branch my-idea — uses a custom title
- /fork — alias for /branch
Implementation:
- CLI: _handle_branch_command() in cli.py
- Gateway: _handle_branch_command() in gateway/run.py
- CommandDef with 'fork' alias in commands.py
- Uses existing parent_session_id field in session DB
- Uses get_next_title_in_lineage() for auto-numbered branches
- 14 tests covering session creation, history copy, parent links,
title generation, edge cases, and agent sync
* fix: clear ghost status-bar lines on terminal resize
When the terminal shrinks (e.g. un-maximize), the emulator reflows
previously full-width rows (status bar, input rules) into multiple
narrower rows. prompt_toolkit's _on_resize only cursor_up()s by the
stored layout height, missing the extra rows from reflow — leaving
ghost duplicates of the status bar visible.
Fix: monkey-patch Application._on_resize to detect width shrinks,
calculate the extra rows created by reflow, and inflate the renderer's
cursor_pos.y so the erase moves up far enough to clear ghosts.
- HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT=0 now means no limit (infinite execution)
- Periodic 'still working' notifications every 10 minutes for long tasks
- Timeout error message now tells users how to increase the limit
- Stale-lock eviction handles infinite timeout correctly (float inf TTL)
The config key skills.external_dirs and core resolution (get_all_skills_dirs,
get_external_skills_dirs in agent/skill_utils.py) already existed but several
code paths still only scanned SKILLS_DIR. Now external dirs are respected
everywhere:
- skills_categories(): scan all dirs for category discovery
- _get_category_from_path(): resolve categories against any skills root
- skill_manager_tool._find_skill(): search all dirs for edit/patch/delete
- credential_files.get_skills_directory_mount(): mount all dirs into
Docker/Singularity containers (external dirs at external_skills/<idx>)
- credential_files.iter_skills_files(): list files from all dirs for
Modal/Daytona upload
- tools/environments/ssh.py: rsync all skill dirs to remote hosts
- gateway _check_unavailable_skill(): check disabled skills across all dirs
Usage in config.yaml:
skills:
external_dirs:
- ~/repos/agent-skills/hermes
- /shared/team-skills
The tool_preview_length: 0 (unlimited) config change from e314833c
removed truncation from gateway progress messages in all/new modes.
This caused full terminal commands, code blocks, and file paths to
appear as permanent messages in Telegram -- the old 40-char truncation
was the correct behavior for messaging platforms.
Now:
- all/new modes: always truncate previews to 40 chars (old behavior)
- verbose mode: respects tool_preview_length config for JSON args cap
Reported by Paulclgro and socialsurfer on Discord.
The base adapter's active-session guard queues all messages when an agent
is running. This creates a deadlock for /approve and /deny: the agent
thread is blocked on threading.Event.wait() in tools/approval.py waiting
for resolve_gateway_approval(), but the /approve command is queued waiting
for the agent to finish.
Dispatch /approve and /deny directly to the message handler (which routes
to gateway/run.py's _handle_approve_command) without going through
_process_message_background — avoids spawning a competing background task
that would mess with session lifecycle/guards.
Fixes#4898

* fix(gateway): add message deduplication to Discord and Slack adapters (#4777)
Discord RESUME replays events after reconnects (~7/day observed),
and Slack Socket Mode can redeliver events if the ack was lost.
Neither adapter tracked which messages were already processed,
causing duplicate bot responses.
Add _seen_messages dedup cache (message ID → timestamp) with 5-min
TTL and 2000-entry cap to both adapters, matching the pattern already
used by Mattermost, Matrix, WeCom, Feishu, DingTalk, and Email.
The check goes at the very top of the message handler, before any
other logic, so replayed events are silently dropped.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* fix: prevent duplicate messages on partial stream delivery
When streaming fails after tokens are already delivered to the platform,
_interruptible_streaming_api_call re-raised the error into the outer
retry loop, which would make a new API call — creating a duplicate
message.
Now checks deltas_were_sent before re-raising: if partial content was
already streamed, returns a stub response instead. The outer loop treats
the turn as complete (no retry, no fallback, no duplicate).
Inspired by PR #4871 (@trevorgordon981) which identified the bug.
This implementation avoids monkey-patching exception objects and keeps
the fix within the streaming call boundary.

Reads config.extra['group_topics'] to bind skills to specific thread_ids
in supergroup/forum chats. Mirrors the dm_topics skill injection pattern
but for group chat_type. Enables per-topic skill auto-loading in Falcon HQ.
Config format:
platforms.telegram.extra.group_topics:
- chat_id: -1003853746818
topics:
- name: FalconConnect
thread_id: 5
skill: falconconnect-architecture
- Add .zip to SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES so gateway platforms (Telegram,
Slack, Discord) cache uploaded zip files instead of rejecting them.
- Add get_cache_directory_mounts() and iter_cache_files() to
credential_files.py for host-side cache directory passthrough
(documents, images, audio, screenshots).
- Docker: bind-mount cache dirs read-only alongside credentials/skills.
Changes are live (bind mount semantics).
- Modal: mount cache files at sandbox creation + resync before each
command via _sync_files() with mtime+size change detection.
- Handles backward-compat with legacy dir names (document_cache,
image_cache, audio_cache, browser_screenshots) via get_hermes_dir().
- Container paths always use the new cache/<subdir> layout regardless
of host layout.
This replaces the need for a dedicated extract_archive tool (PR #4819)
— the agent can now use standard terminal commands (unzip, tar) on
uploaded files inside remote containers.
Closes: related to PR #4819 by kshitijk4poor
Three fixes for memory+profile isolation bugs:
1. memory_tool.py: Replace module-level MEMORY_DIR constant with
get_memory_dir() function that calls get_hermes_home() dynamically.
The old constant was cached at import time and could go stale if
HERMES_HOME changed after import. Internal MemoryStore methods now
call get_memory_dir() directly. MEMORY_DIR kept as backward-compat
alias.
2. profiles.py: profile create --clone now copies MEMORY.md and USER.md
from the source profile. These curated memory files are part of the
agent's identity (same as SOUL.md) and should carry over on clone.
3. holographic plugin: initialize() now expands $HERMES_HOME and
${HERMES_HOME} in the db_path config value, so users can write
'db_path: $HERMES_HOME/memory_store.db' and it resolves to the
active profile directory, not the default home.
Tests updated to mock get_memory_dir() alongside the legacy MEMORY_DIR.
The API server adapter created AIAgent instances without passing
session_db, so conversations via Open WebUI and other OpenAI-compatible
frontends were never persisted to state.db. This meant 'hermes sessions
list' showed no API server sessions — they were effectively stateless.
Changes:
- Add _ensure_session_db() helper for lazy SessionDB initialization
- Pass session_db=self._ensure_session_db() in _create_agent()
- Refactor existing X-Hermes-Session-Id handler to use the shared helper
Sessions now persist with source='api_server' and are visible alongside
CLI and gateway sessions in hermes sessions list/search.
Two fixes for Discord exec approval:
1. Register /approve and /deny as native Discord slash commands so they
appear in Discord's command picker (autocomplete). Previously they
were only handled as text commands, so users saw 'no commands found'
when typing /approve.
2. Wire up the existing ExecApprovalView button UI (was dead code):
- ExecApprovalView now calls resolve_gateway_approval() to actually
unblock the waiting agent thread when a button is clicked
- Gateway's _approval_notify_sync() detects adapters with
send_exec_approval() and routes through the button UI
- Added 'Allow Session' button for parity with /approve session
- send_exec_approval() now accepts session_key and metadata for
thread support
- Graceful fallback to text-based /approve prompt if button send fails
Also updates test mocks to include grey/secondary ButtonStyle and
purple Color (used by new button styles).
Three interconnected bugs caused `hermes skills config` per-platform
settings to be silently ignored:
1. telegram_menu_commands() never filtered disabled skills — all skills
consumed menu slots regardless of platform config, hitting Telegram's
100 command cap. Now loads disabled skills for 'telegram' and excludes
them from the menu.
2. Gateway skill dispatch executed disabled skills because
get_skill_commands() (process-global cache) only filters by the global
disabled list at scan time. Added per-platform check before execution,
returning an actionable 'skill is disabled' message.
3. get_disabled_skill_names() only checked HERMES_PLATFORM env var, but
the gateway sets HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM instead. Added
HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM as fallback, plus an explicit platform=
parameter for callers that know their platform (menu builder, gateway
dispatch). Also added platform to prompt_builder's skills cache key
so multi-platform gateways get correct per-platform skill prompts.
Reported by SteveSkedasticity (CLAW community).
When the agent is blocked on a dangerous command approval (threading.Event
wait inside tools/approval.py), incoming /approve and /deny commands were
falling through to the generic interrupt path instead of being dispatched
to their command handlers. The interrupt sets _interrupt_requested on the
agent, but the agent thread is blocked on event.wait() — not checking the
flag. Result: approval times out after 300s (5 minutes) before executing.
Fix: intercept /approve and /deny in the running-agent early-intercept
block (alongside /stop, /new, /queue) and route directly to
_handle_approve_command / _handle_deny_command.
Three fixes for long-running gateway sessions that enter a death spiral
when API disconnects prevent token data collection, which prevents
compression, which causes more disconnects:
Layer 1 — Stale token counter fallback (run_agent.py in-loop):
When last_prompt_tokens is 0 (stale after API disconnect or provider
returned no usage data), fall back to estimate_messages_tokens_rough()
instead of passing 0 to should_compress(), which would never fire.
Layer 2 — Server disconnect heuristic (run_agent.py error handler):
When ReadError/RemoteProtocolError hits a large session (>60% context
or >200 messages), treat it as a context-length error and trigger
compression rather than burning through retries that all fail the
same way.
Layer 3 — Hard message count limit (gateway/run.py hygiene):
Force compression when a session exceeds 400 messages, regardless of
token estimates. This catches runaway growth even when all token-based
checks fail due to missing API data.
Based on the analysis from PR #2157 by ygd58 — the gateway threshold
direction fix (1.4x multiplier) was already resolved on main.
Follow-up nits for salvaged PR #4577:
- Move _running_agents_ts class attribute below the docstring so
GatewayRunner.__doc__ is preserved.
- Add clarifying comment explaining the throttle continue behavior
(batches queued messages during the throttle interval).
- Fix cron ThreadPoolExecutor blocking on timeout: use shutdown(wait=False,
cancel_futures=True) instead of context manager that waits indefinitely
- Extract _dequeue_pending_text() to deduplicate media-placeholder logic
in interrupt and normal-completion dequeue paths
- Remove hasattr guards for _running_agents_ts: add class-level default
so partial test construction works without scattered defensive checks
- Move `import concurrent.futures` to top of cron/scheduler.py
- Progress throttle: sleep remaining interval instead of busy-looping
0.1s (~15 wakeups per 1.5s window → 1 wakeup)
- Deduplicate _load_stt_config() in transcription_tools.py:
_has_openai_audio_backend() now delegates to _resolve_openai_audio_client_config()
Three targeted fixes from user-reported issues:
1. STT config resolution (transcription_tools.py):
_has_openai_audio_backend() and _resolve_openai_audio_client_config()
now check stt.openai.api_key/base_url in config.yaml FIRST, before
falling back to env vars. Fixes voice transcription breaking when
using a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint via config.yaml.
2. Stream consumer flood control fallback (stream_consumer.py):
When an edit fails mid-stream (e.g., Telegram flood control returns
failure for waits >5s), reset _already_sent to False so the normal
final send path delivers the complete response. Previously, a
truncated partial was left as the final message.
3. Telegram edit_message comment alignment (telegram.py):
Clarify that long flood waits return failure so streaming can fall
back to a normal final send.
Three changes to prevent sessions from getting permanently locked:
1. Agent execution timeout (HERMES_AGENT_TIMEOUT, default 10min):
Wraps run_in_executor with asyncio.wait_for so a hung API call or
runaway tool can't lock a session indefinitely. On timeout, the
agent is interrupted and the user gets an actionable error message.
2. Staleness eviction for _running_agents:
Tracks start timestamps for each session entry. When a new message
arrives and the entry is older than timeout + 1min grace, it's
evicted as a leaked lock. Safety net for any cleanup path that
fails to remove the entry.
3. Cron job timeout (HERMES_CRON_TIMEOUT, default 10min):
Wraps run_conversation in a ThreadPoolExecutor with timeout so a
hung cron job doesn't block the ticker thread (and all subsequent
cron jobs) indefinitely.
Follows grammY runner's per-update timeout pattern and aiogram's
asyncio.wait_for approach for handler deadlines.
This warning fires on every successful streamed response (streaming
delivers the text, handler returns None via already_sent=True) and
on every queued message during active processing. Both are expected
behavior, not error conditions. Downgrade to DEBUG to reduce log noise.
Three bugs causing intermittent silent drops, partial responses, and
flood control delays on the Telegram platform:
1. Race condition in handle_message() — _active_sessions was set inside
the background task, not before create_task(). Two rapid messages
could both pass the guard and spawn duplicate processing tasks.
Fix: set _active_sessions synchronously before spawning the task
(grammY sequentialize / aiogram EventIsolation pattern).
2. Photo media loss on dequeue — when a photo (no caption) was queued
during active processing and later dequeued, only .text was
extracted. Empty text → message silently dropped.
Fix: _build_media_placeholder() creates text context for media-only
events so they survive the dequeue path.
3. Progress message edits triggered Telegram flood control — rapid tool
calls edited the progress message every 0.3s, hitting Telegram's
rate limit (23s+ waits). This blocked progress updates and could
cause stream consumer timeouts.
Fix: throttle edits to 1.5s minimum interval, detect flood control
errors and gracefully degrade to new messages. edit_message() now
returns failure for flood waits >5s instead of blocking.
The PR changed prev_tools from list[str] to list[dict] with name/result
keys. The gateway's _step_callback_sync passed this directly to hooks
as 'tool_names', breaking user-authored hooks that call
', '.join(tool_names).
Now:
- 'tool_names' always contains strings (backward-compatible)
- 'tools' carries the enriched dicts for hooks that want results
Also adds summary logging to register_mcp_servers() and comprehensive
tests for all three PR changes:
- sanitize_mcp_name_component edge cases
- register_mcp_servers public API
- _register_session_mcp_servers ACP integration
- step_callback result forwarding
- gateway normalization backward compat
* feat(memory): add pluggable memory provider interface with profile isolation
Introduces a pluggable MemoryProvider ABC so external memory backends can
integrate with Hermes without modifying core files. Each backend becomes a
plugin implementing a standard interface, orchestrated by MemoryManager.
Key architecture:
- agent/memory_provider.py — ABC with core + optional lifecycle hooks
- agent/memory_manager.py — single integration point in the agent loop
- agent/builtin_memory_provider.py — wraps existing MEMORY.md/USER.md
Profile isolation fixes applied to all 6 shipped plugins:
- Cognitive Memory: use get_hermes_home() instead of raw env var
- Hindsight Memory: check $HERMES_HOME/hindsight/config.json first,
fall back to legacy ~/.hindsight/ for backward compat
- Hermes Memory Store: replace hardcoded ~/.hermes paths with
get_hermes_home() for config loading and DB path defaults
- Mem0 Memory: use get_hermes_home() instead of raw env var
- RetainDB Memory: auto-derive profile-scoped project name from
hermes_home path (hermes-<profile>), explicit env var overrides
- OpenViking Memory: read-only, no local state, isolation via .env
MemoryManager.initialize_all() now injects hermes_home into kwargs so
every provider can resolve profile-scoped storage without importing
get_hermes_home() themselves.
Plugin system: adds register_memory_provider() to PluginContext and
get_plugin_memory_providers() accessor.
Based on PR #3825. 46 tests (37 unit + 5 E2E + 4 plugin registration).
* refactor(memory): drop cognitive plugin, rewrite OpenViking as full provider
Remove cognitive-memory plugin (#727) — core mechanics are broken:
decay runs 24x too fast (hourly not daily), prefetch uses row ID as
timestamp, search limited by importance not similarity.
Rewrite openviking-memory plugin from a read-only search wrapper into
a full bidirectional memory provider using the complete OpenViking
session lifecycle API:
- sync_turn: records user/assistant messages to OpenViking session
(threaded, non-blocking)
- on_session_end: commits session to trigger automatic memory extraction
into 6 categories (profile, preferences, entities, events, cases,
patterns)
- prefetch: background semantic search via find() endpoint
- on_memory_write: mirrors built-in memory writes to the session
- is_available: checks env var only, no network calls (ABC compliance)
Tools expanded from 3 to 5:
- viking_search: semantic search with mode/scope/limit
- viking_read: tiered content (abstract ~100tok / overview ~2k / full)
- viking_browse: filesystem-style navigation (list/tree/stat)
- viking_remember: explicit memory storage via session
- viking_add_resource: ingest URLs/docs into knowledge base
Uses direct HTTP via httpx (no openviking SDK dependency needed).
Response truncation on viking_read to prevent context flooding.
* fix(memory): harden Mem0 plugin — thread safety, non-blocking sync, circuit breaker
- Remove redundant mem0_context tool (identical to mem0_search with
rerank=true, top_k=5 — wastes a tool slot and confuses the model)
- Thread sync_turn so it's non-blocking — Mem0's server-side LLM
extraction can take 5-10s, was stalling the agent after every turn
- Add threading.Lock around _get_client() for thread-safe lazy init
(prefetch and sync threads could race on first client creation)
- Add circuit breaker: after 5 consecutive API failures, pause calls
for 120s instead of hammering a down server every turn. Auto-resets
after cooldown. Logs a warning when tripped.
- Track success/failure in prefetch, sync_turn, and all tool calls
- Wait for previous sync to finish before starting a new one (prevents
unbounded thread accumulation on rapid turns)
- Clean up shutdown to join both prefetch and sync threads
* fix(memory): enforce single external memory provider limit
MemoryManager now rejects a second non-builtin provider with a warning.
Built-in memory (MEMORY.md/USER.md) is always accepted. Only ONE
external plugin provider is allowed at a time. This prevents tool
schema bloat (some providers add 3-5 tools each) and conflicting
memory backends.
The warning message directs users to configure memory.provider in
config.yaml to select which provider to activate.
Updated all 47 tests to use builtin + one external pattern instead
of multiple externals. Added test_second_external_rejected to verify
the enforcement.
* feat(memory): add ByteRover memory provider plugin
Implements the ByteRover integration (from PR #3499 by hieuntg81) as a
MemoryProvider plugin instead of direct run_agent.py modifications.
ByteRover provides persistent memory via the brv CLI — a hierarchical
knowledge tree with tiered retrieval (fuzzy text then LLM-driven search).
Local-first with optional cloud sync.
Plugin capabilities:
- prefetch: background brv query for relevant context
- sync_turn: curate conversation turns (threaded, non-blocking)
- on_memory_write: mirror built-in memory writes to brv
- on_pre_compress: extract insights before context compression
Tools (3):
- brv_query: search the knowledge tree
- brv_curate: store facts/decisions/patterns
- brv_status: check CLI version and context tree state
Profile isolation: working directory at $HERMES_HOME/byterover/ (scoped
per profile). Binary resolution cached with thread-safe double-checked
locking. All write operations threaded to avoid blocking the agent
(curate can take 120s with LLM processing).
* fix(memory): thread remaining sync_turns, fix holographic, add config key
Plugin fixes:
- Hindsight: thread sync_turn (was blocking up to 30s via _run_in_thread)
- RetainDB: thread sync_turn (was blocking on HTTP POST)
- Both: shutdown now joins sync threads alongside prefetch threads
Holographic retrieval fixes:
- reason(): removed dead intersection_key computation (bundled but never
used in scoring). Now reuses pre-computed entity_residuals directly,
moved role_content encoding outside the inner loop.
- contradict(): added _MAX_CONTRADICT_FACTS=500 scaling guard. Above
500 facts, only checks the most recently updated ones to avoid O(n^2)
explosion (~125K comparisons at 500 is acceptable).
Config:
- Added memory.provider key to DEFAULT_CONFIG ("" = builtin only).
No version bump needed (deep_merge handles new keys automatically).
* feat(memory): extract Honcho as a MemoryProvider plugin
Creates plugins/honcho-memory/ as a thin adapter over the existing
honcho_integration/ package. All 4 Honcho tools (profile, search,
context, conclude) move from the normal tool registry to the
MemoryProvider interface.
The plugin delegates all work to HonchoSessionManager — no Honcho
logic is reimplemented. It uses the existing config chain:
$HERMES_HOME/honcho.json -> ~/.honcho/config.json -> env vars.
Lifecycle hooks:
- initialize: creates HonchoSessionManager via existing client factory
- prefetch: background dialectic query
- sync_turn: records messages + flushes to API (threaded)
- on_memory_write: mirrors user profile writes as conclusions
- on_session_end: flushes all pending messages
This is a prerequisite for the MemoryManager wiring in run_agent.py.
Once wired, Honcho goes through the same provider interface as all
other memory plugins, and the scattered Honcho code in run_agent.py
can be consolidated into the single MemoryManager integration point.
* feat(memory): wire MemoryManager into run_agent.py
Adds 8 integration points for the external memory provider plugin,
all purely additive (zero existing code modified):
1. Init (~L1130): Create MemoryManager, find matching plugin provider
from memory.provider config, initialize with session context
2. Tool injection (~L1160): Append provider tool schemas to self.tools
and self.valid_tool_names after memory_manager init
3. System prompt (~L2705): Add external provider's system_prompt_block
alongside existing MEMORY.md/USER.md blocks
4. Tool routing (~L5362): Route provider tool calls through
memory_manager.handle_tool_call() before the catchall handler
5. Memory write bridge (~L5353): Notify external provider via
on_memory_write() when the built-in memory tool writes
6. Pre-compress (~L5233): Call on_pre_compress() before context
compression discards messages
7. Prefetch (~L6421): Inject provider prefetch results into the
current-turn user message (same pattern as Honcho turn context)
8. Turn sync + session end (~L8161, ~L8172): sync_all() after each
completed turn, queue_prefetch_all() for next turn, on_session_end()
+ shutdown_all() at conversation end
All hooks are wrapped in try/except — a failing provider never breaks
the agent. The existing memory system, Honcho integration, and all
other code paths are completely untouched.
Full suite: 7222 passed, 4 pre-existing failures.
* refactor(memory): remove legacy Honcho integration from core
Extracts all Honcho-specific code from run_agent.py, model_tools.py,
toolsets.py, and gateway/run.py. Honcho is now exclusively available
as a memory provider plugin (plugins/honcho-memory/).
Removed from run_agent.py (-457 lines):
- Honcho init block (session manager creation, activation, config)
- 8 Honcho methods: _honcho_should_activate, _strip_honcho_tools,
_activate_honcho, _register_honcho_exit_hook, _queue_honcho_prefetch,
_honcho_prefetch, _honcho_save_user_observation, _honcho_sync
- _inject_honcho_turn_context module-level function
- Honcho system prompt block (tool descriptions, CLI commands)
- Honcho context injection in api_messages building
- Honcho params from __init__ (honcho_session_key, honcho_manager,
honcho_config)
- HONCHO_TOOL_NAMES constant
- All honcho-specific tool dispatch forwarding
Removed from other files:
- model_tools.py: honcho_tools import, honcho params from handle_function_call
- toolsets.py: honcho toolset definition, honcho tools from core tools list
- gateway/run.py: honcho params from AIAgent constructor calls
Removed tests (-339 lines):
- 9 Honcho-specific test methods from test_run_agent.py
- TestHonchoAtexitFlush class from test_exit_cleanup_interrupt.py
Restored two regex constants (_SURROGATE_RE, _BUDGET_WARNING_RE) that
were accidentally removed during the honcho function extraction.
The honcho_integration/ package is kept intact — the plugin delegates
to it. tools/honcho_tools.py registry entries are now dead code (import
commented out in model_tools.py) but the file is preserved for reference.
Full suite: 7207 passed, 4 pre-existing failures. Zero regressions.
* refactor(memory): restructure plugins, add CLI, clean gateway, migration notice
Plugin restructure:
- Move all memory plugins from plugins/<name>-memory/ to plugins/memory/<name>/
(byterover, hindsight, holographic, honcho, mem0, openviking, retaindb)
- New plugins/memory/__init__.py discovery module that scans the directory
directly, loading providers by name without the general plugin system
- run_agent.py uses load_memory_provider() instead of get_plugin_memory_providers()
CLI wiring:
- hermes memory setup — interactive curses picker + config wizard
- hermes memory status — show active provider, config, availability
- hermes memory off — disable external provider (built-in only)
- hermes honcho — now shows migration notice pointing to hermes memory setup
Gateway cleanup:
- Remove _get_or_create_gateway_honcho (already removed in prev commit)
- Remove _shutdown_gateway_honcho and _shutdown_all_gateway_honcho methods
- Remove all calls to shutdown methods (4 call sites)
- Remove _honcho_managers/_honcho_configs dict references
Dead code removal:
- Delete tools/honcho_tools.py (279 lines, import was already commented out)
- Delete tests/gateway/test_honcho_lifecycle.py (131 lines, tested removed methods)
- Remove if False placeholder from run_agent.py
Migration:
- Honcho migration notice on startup: detects existing honcho.json or
~/.honcho/config.json, prints guidance to run hermes memory setup.
Only fires when memory.provider is not set and not in quiet mode.
Full suite: 7203 passed, 4 pre-existing failures. Zero regressions.
* feat(memory): standardize plugin config + add per-plugin documentation
Config architecture:
- Add save_config(values, hermes_home) to MemoryProvider ABC
- Honcho: writes to $HERMES_HOME/honcho.json (SDK native)
- Mem0: writes to $HERMES_HOME/mem0.json
- Hindsight: writes to $HERMES_HOME/hindsight/config.json
- Holographic: writes to config.yaml under plugins.hermes-memory-store
- OpenViking/RetainDB/ByteRover: env-var only (default no-op)
Setup wizard (hermes memory setup):
- Now calls provider.save_config() for non-secret config
- Secrets still go to .env via env vars
- Only memory.provider activation key goes to config.yaml
Documentation:
- README.md for each of the 7 providers in plugins/memory/<name>/
- Requirements, setup (wizard + manual), config reference, tools table
- Consistent format across all providers
The contract for new memory plugins:
- get_config_schema() declares all fields (REQUIRED)
- save_config() writes native config (REQUIRED if not env-var-only)
- Secrets use env_var field in schema, written to .env by wizard
- README.md in the plugin directory
* docs: add memory providers user guide + developer guide
New pages:
- user-guide/features/memory-providers.md — comprehensive guide covering
all 7 shipped providers (Honcho, OpenViking, Mem0, Hindsight,
Holographic, RetainDB, ByteRover). Each with setup, config, tools,
cost, and unique features. Includes comparison table and profile
isolation notes.
- developer-guide/memory-provider-plugin.md — how to build a new memory
provider plugin. Covers ABC, required methods, config schema,
save_config, threading contract, profile isolation, testing.
Updated pages:
- user-guide/features/memory.md — replaced Honcho section with link to
new Memory Providers page
- user-guide/features/honcho.md — replaced with migration redirect to
the new Memory Providers page
- sidebars.ts — added both new pages to navigation
* fix(memory): auto-migrate Honcho users to memory provider plugin
When honcho.json or ~/.honcho/config.json exists but memory.provider
is not set, automatically set memory.provider: honcho in config.yaml
and activate the plugin. The plugin reads the same config files, so
all data and credentials are preserved. Zero user action needed.
Persists the migration to config.yaml so it only fires once. Prints
a one-line confirmation in non-quiet mode.
* fix(memory): only auto-migrate Honcho when enabled + credentialed
Check HonchoClientConfig.enabled AND (api_key OR base_url) before
auto-migrating — not just file existence. Prevents false activation
for users who disabled Honcho, stopped using it (config lingers),
or have ~/.honcho/ from a different tool.
* feat(memory): auto-install pip dependencies during hermes memory setup
Reads pip_dependencies from plugin.yaml, checks which are missing,
installs them via pip before config walkthrough. Also shows install
guidance for external_dependencies (e.g. brv CLI for ByteRover).
Updated all 7 plugin.yaml files with pip_dependencies:
- honcho: honcho-ai
- mem0: mem0ai
- openviking: httpx
- hindsight: hindsight-client
- holographic: (none)
- retaindb: requests
- byterover: (external_dependencies for brv CLI)
* fix: remove remaining Honcho crash risks from cli.py and gateway
cli.py: removed Honcho session re-mapping block (would crash importing
deleted tools/honcho_tools.py), Honcho flush on compress, Honcho
session display on startup, Honcho shutdown on exit, honcho_session_key
AIAgent param.
gateway/run.py: removed honcho_session_key params from helper methods,
sync_honcho param, _honcho.shutdown() block.
tests: fixed test_cron_session_with_honcho_key_skipped (was passing
removed honcho_key param to _flush_memories_for_session).
* fix: include plugins/ in pyproject.toml package list
Without this, plugins/memory/ wouldn't be included in non-editable
installs. Hermes always runs from the repo checkout so this is belt-
and-suspenders, but prevents breakage if the install method changes.
* fix(memory): correct pip-to-import name mapping for dep checks
The heuristic dep.replace('-', '_') fails for packages where the pip
name differs from the import name: honcho-ai→honcho, mem0ai→mem0,
hindsight-client→hindsight_client. Added explicit mapping table so
hermes memory setup doesn't try to reinstall already-installed packages.
* chore: remove dead code from old plugin memory registration path
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: removed register_memory_provider(),
_memory_providers list, get_plugin_memory_providers() — memory
providers now use plugins/memory/ discovery, not the general plugin system
- hermes_cli/main.py: stripped 74 lines of dead honcho argparse
subparsers (setup, status, sessions, map, peer, mode, tokens,
identity, migrate) — kept only the migration redirect
- agent/memory_provider.py: updated docstring to reflect new
registration path
- tests: replaced TestPluginMemoryProviderRegistration with
TestPluginMemoryDiscovery that tests the actual plugins/memory/
discovery system. Added 3 new tests (discover, load, nonexistent).
* chore: delete dead honcho_integration/cli.py and its tests
cli.py (794 lines) was the old 'hermes honcho' command handler — nobody
calls it since cmd_honcho was replaced with a migration redirect.
Deleted tests that imported from removed code:
- tests/honcho_integration/test_cli.py (tested _resolve_api_key)
- tests/honcho_integration/test_config_isolation.py (tested CLI config paths)
- tests/tools/test_honcho_tools.py (tested the deleted tools/honcho_tools.py)
Remaining honcho_integration/ files (actively used by the plugin):
- client.py (445 lines) — config loading, SDK client creation
- session.py (991 lines) — session management, queries, flush
* refactor: move honcho_integration/ into the honcho plugin
Moves client.py (445 lines) and session.py (991 lines) from the
top-level honcho_integration/ package into plugins/memory/honcho/.
No Honcho code remains in the main codebase.
- plugins/memory/honcho/client.py — config loading, SDK client creation
- plugins/memory/honcho/session.py — session management, queries, flush
- Updated all imports: run_agent.py (auto-migration), hermes_cli/doctor.py,
plugin __init__.py, session.py cross-import, all tests
- Removed honcho_integration/ package and pyproject.toml entry
- Renamed tests/honcho_integration/ → tests/honcho_plugin/
* docs: update architecture + gateway-internals for memory provider system
- architecture.md: replaced honcho_integration/ with plugins/memory/
- gateway-internals.md: replaced Honcho-specific session routing and
flush lifecycle docs with generic memory provider interface docs
* fix: update stale mock path for resolve_active_host after honcho plugin migration
* fix(memory): address review feedback — P0 lifecycle, ABC contract, honcho CLI restore
Review feedback from Honcho devs (erosika):
P0 — Provider lifecycle:
- Remove on_session_end() + shutdown_all() from run_conversation() tail
(was killing providers after every turn in multi-turn sessions)
- Add shutdown_memory_provider() method on AIAgent for callers
- Wire shutdown into CLI atexit, reset_conversation, gateway stop/expiry
Bug fixes:
- Remove sync_honcho=False kwarg from /btw callsites (TypeError crash)
- Fix doctor.py references to dead 'hermes honcho setup' command
- Cache prefetch_all() before tool loop (was re-calling every iteration)
ABC contract hardening (all backwards-compatible):
- Add session_id kwarg to prefetch/sync_turn/queue_prefetch
- Make on_pre_compress() return str (provider insights in compression)
- Add **kwargs to on_turn_start() for runtime context
- Add on_delegation() hook for parent-side subagent observation
- Document agent_context/agent_identity/agent_workspace kwargs on
initialize() (prevents cron corruption, enables profile scoping)
- Fix docstring: single external provider, not multiple
Honcho CLI restoration:
- Add plugins/memory/honcho/cli.py (from main's honcho_integration/cli.py
with imports adapted to plugin path)
- Restore full hermes honcho command with all subcommands (status, peer,
mode, tokens, identity, enable/disable, sync, peers, --target-profile)
- Restore auto-clone on profile creation + sync on hermes update
- hermes honcho setup now redirects to hermes memory setup
* fix(memory): wire on_delegation, skip_memory for cron/flush, fix ByteRover return type
- Wire on_delegation() in delegate_tool.py — parent's memory provider
is notified with task+result after each subagent completes
- Add skip_memory=True to cron scheduler (prevents cron system prompts
from corrupting user representations — closes#4052)
- Add skip_memory=True to gateway flush agent (throwaway agent shouldn't
activate memory provider)
- Fix ByteRover on_pre_compress() return type: None -> str
* fix(honcho): port profile isolation fixes from PR #4632
Ports 5 bug fixes found during profile testing (erosika's PR #4632):
1. 3-tier config resolution — resolve_config_path() now checks
$HERMES_HOME/honcho.json → ~/.hermes/honcho.json → ~/.honcho/config.json
(non-default profiles couldn't find shared host blocks)
2. Thread host=_host_key() through from_global_config() in cmd_setup,
cmd_status, cmd_identity (--target-profile was being ignored)
3. Use bare profile name as aiPeer (not host key with dots) — Honcho's
peer ID pattern is ^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+$, dots are invalid
4. Wrap add_peers() in try/except — was fatal on new AI peers, killed
all message uploads for the session
5. Gate Honcho clone behind --clone/--clone-all on profile create
(bare create should be blank-slate)
Also: sanitize assistant_peer_id via _sanitize_id()
* fix(tests): add module cleanup fixture to test_cli_provider_resolution
test_cli_provider_resolution._import_cli() wipes tools.*, cli, and
run_agent from sys.modules to force fresh imports, but had no cleanup.
This poisoned all subsequent tests on the same xdist worker — mocks
targeting tools.file_tools, tools.send_message_tool, etc. patched the
NEW module object while already-imported functions still referenced
the OLD one. Caused ~25 cascade failures: send_message KeyError,
process_registry FileNotFoundError, file_read_guards timeouts,
read_loop_detection file-not-found, mcp_oauth None port, and
provider_parity/codex_execution stale tool lists.
Fix: autouse fixture saves all affected modules before each test and
restores them after, matching the pattern in
test_managed_browserbase_and_modal.py.
Cherry-picked from PR #4363 by @bennyhodl with follow-up fixes:
- Skip 'No home channel' prompt for webhook platform (webhooks deliver
to configured targets, not a home channel)
- Disable tool progress for webhooks (no message editing support)
- Add webhook to PLATFORMS in tools_config.py and skills_config.py
- Add hermes-webhook toolset to toolsets.py + hermes-gateway includes
- Removed overly aggressive <50 char content filter that blocked
legitimate short responses (tool progress already handled at source)
Co-authored-by: bennyhodl <bennyhodl@users.noreply.github.com>
By default, Hermes always threads replies to channel messages. Teams
that prefer direct channel replies had no way to opt out without
patching the source.
Add a reply_in_thread option (default: true) to the Slack platform
extra config:
platforms:
slack:
extra:
reply_in_thread: false
When false, _resolve_thread_ts() returns None for top-level channel
messages, so replies go directly to the channel. Messages already
inside an existing thread are still replied in-thread to preserve
conversation context. Default is true for full backward compatibility.
The gateway's dangerous command approval system was fundamentally broken:
the agent loop continued running after a command was flagged, and the
approval request only reached the user after the agent finished its
entire conversation loop. By then the context was lost.
This change makes the gateway approval mirror the CLI's synchronous
behavior. When a dangerous command is detected:
1. The agent thread blocks on a threading.Event
2. The approval request is sent to the user immediately
3. The user responds with /approve or /deny
4. The event is signaled and the agent resumes with the real result
The agent never sees 'approval_required' as a tool result. It either
gets the command output (approved) or a definitive BLOCKED message
(denied/timed out) — same as CLI mode.
Queue-based design supports multiple concurrent approvals (parallel
subagents via delegate_task, execute_code RPC handlers). Each approval
gets its own _ApprovalEntry with its own threading.Event. /approve
resolves the oldest (FIFO); /approve all resolves all at once.
Changes:
- tools/approval.py: Queue-based per-session blocking gateway approval
(register/unregister callbacks, resolve with FIFO or all-at-once)
- gateway/run.py: Register approval callback in run_sync(), remove
post-loop pop_pending hack, /approve and /deny support 'all' flag
- tests: 21 tests including parallel subagent E2E scenarios
* fix: force-close TCP sockets on client cleanup, detect and recover dead connections
When a provider drops connections mid-stream (e.g. OpenRouter outage),
httpx's graceful close leaves sockets in CLOSE-WAIT indefinitely. These
zombie connections accumulate and can prevent recovery without restarting.
Changes:
- _force_close_tcp_sockets: walks the httpx connection pool and issues
socket.shutdown(SHUT_RDWR) + close() to force TCP RST on every socket
when a client is closed, preventing CLOSE-WAIT accumulation
- _cleanup_dead_connections: probes the primary client's pool for dead
sockets (recv MSG_PEEK), rebuilds the client if any are found
- Pre-turn health check at the start of each run_conversation call that
auto-recovers with a user-facing status message
- Primary client rebuild after stale stream detection to purge pool
- User-facing messages on streaming connection failures:
"Connection to provider dropped — Reconnecting (attempt 2/3)"
"Connection failed after 3 attempts — try again in a moment"
Made-with: Cursor
* fix: pool entry missing base_url for openrouter, clean error messages
- _resolve_runtime_from_pool_entry: add OPENROUTER_BASE_URL fallback
when pool entry has no runtime_base_url (pool entries from auth.json
credential_pool often omit base_url)
- Replace Rich console.print for auth errors with plain print() to
prevent ANSI escape code mangling through prompt_toolkit's stdout patch
- Force-close TCP sockets on client cleanup to prevent CLOSE-WAIT
accumulation after provider outages
- Pre-turn dead connection detection with auto-recovery and user message
- Primary client rebuild after stale stream detection
- User-facing status messages on streaming connection failures/retries
Made-with: Cursor
* fix(gateway): persist memory flush state to prevent redundant re-flushes on restart
The _session_expiry_watcher tracked flushed sessions in an in-memory set
(_pre_flushed_sessions) that was lost on gateway restart. Expired sessions
remained in sessions.json and were re-discovered every restart, causing
redundant AIAgent runs that burned API credits and blocked the event loop.
Fix: Add a memory_flushed boolean field to SessionEntry, persisted in
sessions.json. The watcher sets it after a successful flush. On restart,
the flag survives and the watcher skips already-flushed sessions.
- Add memory_flushed field to SessionEntry with to_dict/from_dict support
- Old sessions.json entries without the field default to False (backward compat)
- Remove the ephemeral _pre_flushed_sessions set from SessionStore
- Update tests: save/load roundtrip, legacy entry compat, auto-reset behavior
Reuse a single SessionDB across requests by caching on self._session_db
with lazy initialization. Avoids creating a new SQLite connection per
request when X-Hermes-Session-Id is used. Updated tests to set
adapter._session_db directly instead of patching the constructor.
Allow callers to pass X-Hermes-Session-Id in request headers to continue
an existing conversation. When provided, history is loaded from SessionDB
instead of the request body, and the session_id is echoed in the response
header. Without the header, existing behavior is preserved (new uuid per
request).
This enables web UI clients to maintain thread continuity without modifying
any session state themselves — the same mechanism the gateway uses for IM
platforms (Telegram, Discord, etc.).
- stderr handler now uses RedactingFormatter to match file handlers
- restart path uses verbose=0 (int) instead of verbose=False (bool)
- test mock updated with new run_gateway(verbose, quiet, replace) signature
By default 'hermes gateway run' now prints WARNING+ to stderr so
connection errors and startup failures are visible in the terminal
without having to tail ~/.hermes/logs/gateway.log.
- gateway/run.py: start_gateway() accepts verbosity: Optional[int]=0.
When not None, attaches a StreamHandler to stderr with level mapped
from the count (0=WARNING, 1=INFO, 2+=DEBUG). Root logger level is
also lowered when DEBUG is requested so records are not swallowed.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py: run_gateway() gains verbose: int and
quiet: bool params. -q translates to verbosity=None (no stderr
handler). Wired through gateway_command().
- hermes_cli/main.py: -v changed from store_true to action=count so
-v/-vv/-vvv each increment the level. -q/--quiet added as a new flag.
Behaviour summary:
hermes gateway run -> WARNING+ on stderr (default)
hermes gateway run -q -> silent
hermes gateway run -v -> INFO+
hermes gateway run -vv -> DEBUG
When a dangerous command was blocked and the user approved it via /approve,
the command was executed but the agent loop had already exited — the agent
never received the command output and the task died silently.
Now _handle_approve_command sends immediate feedback to the user, then
creates a synthetic continuation message with the command output and feeds
it through _handle_message so the agent picks up where it left off.
- Send command result to chat immediately via adapter.send()
- Create synthetic MessageEvent with command + output as context
- Spawn asyncio task to re-invoke agent via _handle_message
- Return None (feedback already sent directly)
- Add test for agent re-invocation after approval
- Update existing approval tests for new return behavior
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.
Telegram API returns HTTP 400 when sent whitespace-only or empty
text. Add a guard at the top of send() to silently succeed on
blank content instead of crashing.
Equivalent to OpenClaw #56620.
The delivery target parser uses split(':', 1) which only splits on the
first colon. For the documented format platform:chat_id:thread_id
(e.g. 'telegram:-1001234567890:17585'), thread_id gets munged into
chat_id and is never extracted.
Fix: split(':', 2) to correctly extract all three parts. Also fix
to_string() to include thread_id for proper round-tripping.
The downstream plumbing in _deliver_to_platform() already handles
thread_id correctly (line 292-293) — it just never received a value.
* docs: clarify WhatsApp allowlist behavior and document WHATSAPP_ALLOW_ALL_USERS
- Add WHATSAPP_ALLOW_ALL_USERS and WHATSAPP_DEBUG to env vars reference
- Warn that * is not a wildcard and silently blocks all messages
- Show WHATSAPP_ALLOWED_USERS as optional, not required
- Update troubleshooting with the * trap and debug mode tip
- Fix Security section to mention the allow-all alternative
Prompted by a user report in Discord where WHATSAPP_ALLOWED_USERS=*
caused all incoming messages to be silently dropped at the bridge level.
* feat: support * wildcard in platform allowlists
Follow the precedent set by SIGNAL_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS which already
supports * as an allow-all wildcard.
Bridge (allowlist.js): matchesAllowedUser() now checks for * in the
allowedUsers set before iterating sender aliases.
Gateway (run.py): _is_authorized() checks for * in allowed_ids after
parsing the allowlist. This is generic — works for all platforms, not
just WhatsApp.
Updated docs to document * as a supported value instead of warning
against it. Added WHATSAPP_ALLOW_ALL_USERS and WHATSAPP_DEBUG to
the env vars reference.
Tests: JS allowlist test + 2 Python gateway tests (WhatsApp + Telegram
to verify cross-platform behavior).
* 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

Salvaged from PR #2647
* 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.

Adds a 'reactions' key under the discord config section (default: true).
When set to false, the bot no longer adds 👀/✅/❌ reactions to messages
during processing. The config maps to DISCORD_REACTIONS env var following
the same pattern as require_mention and auto_thread.
Files changed:
- hermes_cli/config.py: Add reactions default to DEFAULT_CONFIG
- gateway/config.py: Map discord.reactions to DISCORD_REACTIONS env var
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: Gate on_processing_start/complete hooks
- tests/gateway/test_discord_reactions.py: 3 new tests for config gate
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.
Adds /btw <question> — ask a quick follow-up using the current
session context without interrupting the main conversation.
- Snapshots conversation history, answers with a no-tools agent
- Response is not persisted to session history or DB
- Runs in a background thread (CLI) / async task (gateway)
- Per-session guard prevents concurrent /btw in gateway
Implementation:
- model_tools.py: enabled_toolsets=[] now correctly means "no tools"
(was falsy, fell through to default "all tools")
- run_agent.py: persist_session=False gates _persist_session()
- cli.py: _handle_btw_command (background thread, Rich panel output)
- gateway/run.py: _handle_btw_command + _run_btw_task (async task)
- hermes_cli/commands.py: CommandDef for "btw"
Inspired by PR #3504 by areu01or00, reimplemented cleanly on current
main with the enabled_toolsets=[] fix and without the __btw_no_tools__
hack.
Salvaged from PR #4024 by @Sertug17. Fixes#4017.
- Replace systemd-run --user --scope with setsid for portable session detach
- Add system-level service detection to cmd_update gateway restart
- Falls back to start_new_session=True on systems without setsid (macOS, minimal containers)
Auto-compression still runs silently in the background with server-side
logging, but no longer sends messages to the user's chat about it.
Removed:
- 'Session is large... Auto-compressing' pre-compression notification
- 'Compressed: N → M messages' post-compression notification
- 'Session is still very large after compression' warning
- 'Auto-compression failed' warning
- Rate-limit tracking (only existed for these warnings)
Wire the existing tool_progress_callback through the API server's
streaming handler so Open WebUI users see what tool is running.
Uses the existing 3-arg callback signature (name, preview, args)
that fires at tool start — no changes to run_agent.py needed.
Progress appears as inline markdown in the SSE content stream.
Inspired by PR #4032 by sroecker, reimplemented to avoid breaking
the callback signature used by CLI and gateway consumers.
When context compression fires during run_conversation() in the gateway,
the compressed messages were silently lost on the next turn. Two bugs:
1. Agent-side: _flush_messages_to_session_db() calculated
flush_from = max(len(conversation_history), _last_flushed_db_idx).
After compression, _last_flushed_db_idx was correctly reset to 0,
but conversation_history still had its original pre-compression
length (e.g. 200). Since compressed messages are shorter (~30),
messages[200:] was empty — nothing written to the new session's
SQLite.
Fix: Set conversation_history = None after each _compress_context()
call so start_idx = 0 and all compressed messages are flushed.
2. Gateway-side: history_offset was always len(agent_history) — the
original pre-compression length. After compression shortened the
message list, agent_messages[200:] was empty, causing the gateway
to fall back to writing only a user/assistant pair, losing the
compressed summary and tail context.
Fix: Detect session splits (agent.session_id != original) and set
history_offset = 0 so all compressed messages are written to JSONL.
When the Matrix adapter receives encrypted events it can't decrypt
(MegolmEvent), it now:
1. Requests the missing room key from other devices via
client.request_room_key(event) instead of silently dropping the message
2. Buffers undecrypted events (bounded to 100, 5 min TTL) and retries
decryption after each E2EE maintenance cycle when new keys arrive
3. Auto-trusts/verifies all devices after key queries so other clients
share session keys with the bot proactively
4. Exports Megolm keys on disconnect and imports them on connect, so
session keys survive gateway restarts
This addresses the 'could not decrypt event' warnings that caused the
bot to miss messages in encrypted rooms.
Gateway hygiene pre-compression only checked model.context_length from
the top-level config, missing per-model context_length defined in
custom_providers entries. This caused premature compression for custom
provider users (e.g. 128K default instead of 200K configured).
The AIAgent's own compressor already reads custom_providers correctly
(run_agent.py lines 1171-1189). This adds the same fallback to the
gateway hygiene path, running after runtime provider resolution so
the base_url is available for matching.
* fix: rate-limit pairing rejection messages to prevent spam
When generate_code() returns None (rate limited or max pending), the
"Too many pairing requests" message was sent on every subsequent DM
with no cooldown. A user sending 30 messages would get 30 rejection
replies — reported as potential hack on WhatsApp.
Now check _is_rate_limited() before any pairing response, and record
rate limit after sending a rejection. Subsequent messages from the
same user are silently ignored until the rate limit window expires.
* test: add coverage for pairing response rate limiting
Follow-up to cherry-picked PR #4042 — adds tests verifying:
- Rate-limited users get silently ignored (no response sent)
- Rejection messages record rate limit for subsequent suppression

Adds /profile to COMMAND_REGISTRY (Info category) with handlers in
both CLI and gateway. Shows the active profile name and home directory.
Works on all platforms — CLI, Telegram, Discord, Slack, etc.
Detects profile by checking if HERMES_HOME is under ~/.hermes/profiles/.
Shows 'default' when running without a profile.
* feat: add /yolo slash command to toggle dangerous command approvals
Adds a /yolo command that toggles HERMES_YOLO_MODE at runtime, skipping
all dangerous command approval prompts for the current session. Works in
both CLI and gateway (Telegram, Discord, etc.).
- /yolo -> ON: all commands auto-approved, no confirmation prompts
- /yolo -> OFF: normal approval flow restored
The --yolo CLI flag already existed for launch-time opt-in. This adds
the ability to toggle mid-session without restarting.
Session-scoped — resets when the process ends. Uses the existing
HERMES_YOLO_MODE env var that check_all_command_guards() already
respects.
* fix: prevent context pressure warning spam (agent loop + gateway rate-limit)
Two complementary fixes for repeated context pressure warnings spamming
gateway users (Telegram, Discord, etc.):
1. Agent-level loop fix (run_agent.py):
After compression, only reset _context_pressure_warned if the
post-compression estimate is actually below the 85% warning level.
Previously the flag was unconditionally reset, causing the warning
to re-fire every loop iteration when compression couldn't reduce
below 85% of the threshold (e.g. very low threshold like 15%,
or system prompt alone exceeds the warning level).
2. Gateway-level rate-limit (gateway/run.py, salvaged from PR #3786):
Per-chat_id cooldown of 1 hour on compression warning messages.
Both warning paths ('still large after compression' and 'compression
failed') are gated. Defense-in-depth — even if the agent-level fix
has edge cases, users won't see more than one warning per hour.

* fix: truncate skill descriptions to 100 chars in Telegram menu
* fix: 40-char desc cap + 100 command limit for Telegram menu
setMyCommands has an undocumented total payload size limit.
50 commands with 256-char descriptions failed, 50 with 100-char
worked, and 100 with 40-char descriptions also works (~5300 total
chars). Truncate skill descriptions to 40 chars in the menu picker
and set cap back to 100. Full descriptions available via /commands.
Adds a /yolo command that toggles HERMES_YOLO_MODE at runtime, skipping
all dangerous command approval prompts for the current session. Works in
both CLI and gateway (Telegram, Discord, etc.).
- /yolo -> ON: all commands auto-approved, no confirmation prompts
- /yolo -> OFF: normal approval flow restored
The --yolo CLI flag already existed for launch-time opt-in. This adds
the ability to toggle mid-session without restarting.
Session-scoped — resets when the process ends. Uses the existing
HERMES_YOLO_MODE env var that check_all_command_guards() already
respects.
* fix: use SKILLS_DIR not repo path for Telegram menu skill filter
Skills are synced to ~/.hermes/skills/ (SKILLS_DIR), not the repo's
skills/ directory. The previous filter compared against the repo path
so no skills matched. Now checks SKILLS_DIR and excludes .hub/
subdirectory (user-installed hub skills).
* fix: cap Telegram menu at 50 commands — API rejects above ~60
Telegram's setMyCommands returns BOT_COMMANDS_TOO_MUCH when
registering close to 100 commands despite docs claiming 100 is the
limit. Metadata overhead causes rejection above ~60. Cap at 50 for
reliability — remaining commands accessible via /commands.
* feat(gateway): skill-aware slash commands, paginated /commands, Telegram 100-cap
Map active skills to Telegram's slash command menu so users can
discover and invoke skills directly. Three changes:
1. Telegram menu now includes active skill commands alongside built-in
commands, capped at 100 entries (Telegram Bot API limit). Overflow
commands remain callable but hidden from the picker. Logged at
startup when cap is hit.
2. New /commands [page] gateway command for paginated browsing of all
commands + skills. /help now shows first 10 skill commands and
points to /commands for the full list.
3. When a user types a slash command that matches a disabled or
uninstalled skill, they get actionable guidance:
- Disabled: 'Enable it with: hermes skills config'
- Optional (not installed): 'Install with: hermes skills install official/<path>'
Built on ideas from PR #3921 by @kshitijk4poor.
* chore: move 21 niche skills to optional-skills
Move specialized/niche skills from built-in (skills/) to optional
(optional-skills/) to reduce the default skill count. Users can
install them with: hermes skills install official/<category>/<name>
Moved skills (21):
- mlops: accelerate, chroma, faiss, flash-attention,
hermes-atropos-environments, huggingface-tokenizers, instructor,
lambda-labs, llava, nemo-curator, pinecone, pytorch-lightning,
qdrant, saelens, simpo, slime, tensorrt-llm, torchtitan
- research: domain-intel, duckduckgo-search
- devops: inference-sh cli
Built-in skills: 96 → 75
Optional skills: 22 → 43
* fix: only include repo built-in skills in Telegram menu, not user-installed
User-installed skills (from hub or manually added) stay accessible via
/skills and by typing the command directly, but don't get registered
in the Telegram slash command picker. Only skills whose SKILL.md is
under the repo's skills/ directory are included in the menu.
This keeps the Telegram menu focused on the curated built-in set while
user-installed skills remain discoverable through /skills and /commands.
1. matrix voice: _on_room_message_media unconditionally overwrote
media_urls with the image cache path (always None for non-images),
wiping the locally-cached voice path. Now only overrides when
cached_path is truthy.
2. cli_tools_command: /tools disable no longer prompts for confirmation
(input() removed in earlier commit to fix TUI hang), but tests still
expected the old Y/N prompt flow. Updated tests to match current
behavior (direct apply + session reset).
3. slack app_mention: connect() was refactored for multi-workspace
(creates AsyncWebClient per token), but test only mocked the old
self._app.client path. Added AsyncWebClient and acquire_scoped_lock
mocks.
4. website_policy: module-level _cached_policy from earlier tests caused
fast-path return of None. Added invalidate_cache() before assertion.
5. codex 401 refresh: already passing on current main (fixed by
intervening commit).
* feat(telegram): add webhook mode as alternative to polling
When TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_URL is set, the adapter starts an HTTP webhook
server (via python-telegram-bot's start_webhook()) instead of long
polling. This enables cloud platforms like Fly.io and Railway to
auto-wake suspended machines on inbound HTTP traffic.
Polling remains the default — no behavior change unless the env var
is set.
Env vars:
TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_URL Public HTTPS URL for Telegram to push to
TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_PORT Local listen port (default 8443)
TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_SECRET Secret token for update verification

* fix: send_document call in background task delivery + vision download timeout
Two fixes salvaged from PR #2269 by amethystani:
1. gateway/run.py: adapter.send_file() → adapter.send_document()
send_file() doesn't exist on BasePlatformAdapter. Background task
media files were silently never delivered (AttributeError swallowed
by except Exception: pass).
2. tools/vision_tools.py: configurable image download timeout via
HERMES_VISION_DOWNLOAD_TIMEOUT env var (default 30s), plus guard
against raise None when max_retries=0.
The third fix in #2269 (opencode-go auth config) was already resolved
on main.

Salvaged from PR #2033 by yoannes. Adds multi-workspace Slack support
so a single Hermes instance can serve multiple Slack workspaces after
OAuth installs.
Changes:
- Support comma-separated bot tokens in SLACK_BOT_TOKEN env var
- Load additional OAuth-persisted tokens from HERMES_HOME/slack_tokens.json
- Route all Slack API calls through workspace-aware _get_client(chat_id)
instead of always using the primary app client
- Track channel → workspace mapping from incoming events
- Per-workspace bot_user_id for correct mention detection
- Workspace-aware file downloads (correct auth token per workspace)
Backward compatible: single-token setups work identically.
Token file format (slack_tokens.json):
{"T12345": {"token": "xoxb-...", "team_name": "My Workspace"}}
Fixed from original PR:
- Uses get_hermes_home() instead of hardcoded ~/.hermes/ path

Adds lifecycle hooks to the base platform adapter so Discord (and future
platforms) can react to message processing events:
👀 when processing starts
✅ on successful completion (delivery confirmed)
❌ on failure, error, or cancellation
Implementation:
- base.py: on_processing_start/on_processing_complete hooks with
_run_processing_hook error isolation wrapper; delivery tracking
via _record_delivery closure for accurate success detection
- discord.py: _add_reaction/_remove_reaction helpers + hook overrides
- Tests for base hook lifecycle and Discord-specific reactions

Adds Discord-style mention gating for Telegram groups:
- telegram.require_mention: gate group messages (default: false)
- telegram.mention_patterns: regex wake-word triggers
- telegram.free_response_chats: bypass gating for specific chats
When require_mention is enabled, group messages are accepted only for:
- slash commands
- replies to the bot
- @botusername mentions
- regex wake-word pattern matches
DMs remain unrestricted. @mention text is stripped before passing to
the agent. Invalid regex patterns are ignored with a warning.
Config bridges follow the existing Discord pattern (yaml → env vars).
Cherry-picked and adapted from PR #1977 by mcleay. Fixed ChatType
comparison to work without python-telegram-bot installed (uses string
matching instead of enum, consistent with other entity_type checks).

Adds WeCom as a gateway platform adapter using the AI Bot WebSocket
gateway for real-time bidirectional communication. No public endpoint
or new pip dependencies needed (uses existing aiohttp + httpx).
Features:
- WebSocket persistent connection with auto-reconnect (exponential backoff)
- DM and group messaging with configurable access policies
- Media upload/download with AES decryption for encrypted attachments
- Markdown rendering, quote context preservation
- Proactive + passive reply message modes
- Chunked media upload pipeline (512KB chunks)
Cherry-picked from PR #1898 by EvilRan with:
- Moved to current main (PR was 300 commits behind)
- Skipped base.py regressions (reply_to additions are good but belong
in a separate PR since they affect all platforms)
- Fixed test assertions to match current base class send() signature
(reply_to=None kwarg now explicit)
- All 16 integration points added surgically to current main
- No new pip dependencies (aiohttp + httpx already installed)
Fixes#1898

Previously, when no API keys or provider credentials were found, Hermes
silently defaulted to OpenRouter + Claude Opus. This caused confusion
when users configured local servers (LM Studio, Ollama, etc.) with a
typo or unrecognized provider name — the system would silently route to
OpenRouter instead of telling them something was wrong.
Changes:
- resolve_provider() now raises AuthError when no credentials are found
instead of returning 'openrouter' as a silent fallback
- Added local server aliases: lmstudio, ollama, vllm, llamacpp → custom
- Removed hardcoded 'anthropic/claude-opus-4.6' fallback from gateway
and cron scheduler (they read from config.yaml instead)
- Updated cli-config.yaml.example with complete provider documentation
including all supported providers, aliases, and local server setup
* fix: add gpt-5.4-mini to Codex fallback catalog
* fix(telegram): gracefully handle deleted reply targets
When a user deletes their message while Hermes is processing, Telegram
returns BadRequest 'Message to be replied not found'. Previously this
was an unhandled permanent error causing silent delivery failure.
Now clears reply_to_id and retries so the response is still delivered,
matching the existing 'thread not found' recovery pattern.

WhatsApp DMs can arrive with LID sender IDs even when
WHATSAPP_ALLOWED_USERS is configured with phone numbers. The allowlist
check now reads bridge session mapping files (lid-mapping-*.json) to
resolve phone↔LID aliases, matching users regardless of which
identifier format the message uses.
Both the Python gateway (_is_user_authorized) and the Node bridge
(allowlist.js) now share the same mapping-file-based resolution logic.

Adds Feishu (ByteDance's enterprise messaging platform) as a gateway
platform adapter with full feature parity: WebSocket + webhook transports,
message batching, dedup, rate limiting, rich post/card content parsing,
media handling (images/audio/files/video), group @mention gating,
reaction routing, and interactive card button support.
Cherry-picked from PR #1793 by penwyp with:
- Moved to current main (PR was 458 commits behind)
- Fixed _send_with_retry shadowing BasePlatformAdapter method (renamed to
_feishu_send_with_retry to avoid signature mismatch crash)
- Fixed import structure: aiohttp/websockets imported independently of
lark_oapi so they remain available when SDK is missing
- Fixed get_hermes_home import (hermes_constants, not hermes_cli.config)
- Added skip decorators for tests requiring lark_oapi SDK
- All 16 integration points added surgically to current main
New dependency: lark-oapi>=1.5.3,<2 (optional, pip install hermes-agent[feishu])

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

Replace per-request aiohttp.ClientSession() in every WhatsApp adapter
method with a single persistent self._http_session, matching the pattern
used by Mattermost, HomeAssistant, and SMS adapters.
Changes:
- Create self._http_session in connect(), close in disconnect()
- All bridge HTTP calls (send, edit, send-media, typing, get_chat_info,
poll_messages) now use the shared session
- Explicitly cancel _poll_task on disconnect() instead of relying
solely on self._running = False
- Health-check sessions in connect() remain ephemeral (persistent
session not yet created at that point)
- Remove per-method ImportError guards for aiohttp (always available
when gateway runs via [messaging] extras)
Salvaged from PR #1851 by Himess. The _poll_task storage was already
on main from PR #3267; this adds the disconnect cancellation and the
persistent session.
Tests: 4 new tests for session close, already-closed skip, poll task
cancellation, and done-task skip.
Extends the single fallback_model mechanism into an ordered chain.
When the primary model fails, Hermes tries each fallback provider in
sequence until one succeeds or the chain is exhausted.
Config format (new):
fallback_providers:
- provider: openrouter
model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
- provider: openai
model: gpt-4o
Legacy single-dict fallback_model format still works unchanged.
Key fix vs original PR: the call sites in the retry loop now use
_fallback_index < len(_fallback_chain) instead of the old one-shot
_fallback_activated guard, so the chain actually advances through
all configured providers.
Changes:
- run_agent.py: _fallback_chain list + _fallback_index replaces
one-shot _fallback_model; _try_activate_fallback() advances
through chain; failed provider resolution skips to next entry;
call sites updated to allow chain advancement
- cli.py: reads fallback_providers with legacy fallback_model compat
- gateway/run.py: same
- hermes_cli/config.py: fallback_providers: [] in DEFAULT_CONFIG
- tests: 12 new chain tests + 6 existing test fixtures updated

Home channel env vars (SLACK_HOME_CHANNEL, SIGNAL_HOME_CHANNEL, etc.)
for Slack, Signal, Mattermost, Matrix, Email, and SMS were nested
inside the credential-env blocks, so they were ignored when the

Moved the home channel handling outside the credential blocks with a
Platform.X in config.platforms guard, matching the existing pattern
for Telegram and Discord.
