Refactor browser tool PATH construction to include Termux directories
(/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin, /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/sbin)
so agent-browser and npx are discoverable on Android/Termux.
Extracts _browser_candidate_path_dirs() and _merge_browser_path() helpers
to centralize PATH construction shared between _find_agent_browser() and
_run_browser_command(), replacing duplicated inline logic.
Also fixes os.pathsep usage (was hardcoded ':') for cross-platform correctness.
Cherry-picked from PR #9846.
Add dangerous command patterns that require approval when the agent
tries to run gateway lifecycle commands via the terminal tool:
- hermes gateway stop/restart — kills all running agents mid-work
- hermes update — pulls code and restarts the gateway
- systemctl restart/stop (with optional flags like --user)
These patterns fire the approval prompt so the user must explicitly
approve before the agent can kill its own gateway process. In YOLO
mode, the commands run without approval (by design — YOLO means the
user accepts all risks).
Also fixes the existing systemctl pattern to handle flags between
the command and action (e.g. 'systemctl --user restart' was previously
undetected because the regex expected the action immediately after
'systemctl').
Root cause: issue #6666 reported agents running 'hermes gateway
restart' via terminal, killing the gateway process mid-agent-loop.
The user sees the agent suddenly stop responding with no explanation.
Combined with the SIGTERM auto-recovery from PR #9875, the gateway
now both prevents accidental self-destruction AND recovers if it
happens anyway.
Test plan:
- Updated test_systemctl_restart_not_flagged → test_systemctl_restart_flagged
- All 119 approval tests pass
- E2E verified: hermes gateway restart, hermes update, systemctl
--user restart all detected; hermes gateway status, systemctl
status remain safe
Add ctx.register_skill() API so plugins can ship SKILL.md files under
a 'plugin:skill' namespace, preventing name collisions with built-in
Hermes skills. skill_view() detects the ':' separator and routes to
the plugin registry while bare names continue through the existing
flat-tree scan unchanged.
Key additions:
- agent/skill_utils: parse_qualified_name(), is_valid_namespace()
- hermes_cli/plugins: PluginContext.register_skill(), PluginManager
skill registry (find/list/remove)
- tools/skills_tool: qualified name dispatch in skill_view(),
_serve_plugin_skill() with full guards (disabled, platform,
injection scan), bundle context banner with sibling listing,
stale registry self-heal
- Hoisted _INJECTION_PATTERNS to module level (dedup)
- Updated skill_view schema description
Based on PR #9334 by N0nb0at. Lean P1 salvage — omits autogen shim
(P2) for a simpler first merge.

- Fix _camofox_eval() endpoint: /tabs/{id}/eval → /tabs/{id}/evaluate
(correct Camofox REST API path)
- Add required userId field to JS eval request body (all other Camofox
endpoints already include it)
- Update npm package from @askjo/camoufox-browser ^1.0.0 to

- Regenerate package-lock.json
Fixes issues reported in PRs #9472, #8267, #7208 (stale).
Match cron/scheduler.py pattern — only attempt msvcrt import when
fcntl is unavailable. Pre-declare msvcrt = None at module level so
_file_lock() references don't NameError on Linux.
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
- 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
Three improvements to file search based on user feedback:
1. Fuzzy @ completions (commands.py):
- Bare @query now does project-wide fuzzy file search instead of
prefix-only directory listing
- Uses rg --files with 5-second cache for responsive completions
- Scoring: exact name (100) > prefix (80) > substring (60) >
path contains (40) > subsequence with boundary bonus (35/25)
- Bare @ with no query shows recently modified files first
2. Mtime-sorted file search (file_operations.py):
- _search_files_rg now uses --sortr=modified (rg 13+) to surface
recently edited files first
- Falls back to unsorted on older rg versions
3. Improved file-not-found suggestions (file_operations.py):
- Replaced crude character-set overlap with ranked scoring:
same basename (90) > prefix (70) > substring (60) >
reverse substring (40) > same extension (30)
- search_files path-not-found now suggests similar directories
from the parent
Cherry-picked from PR #9177 by @haileymarshall.
Adds a fitness and nutrition skill for gym-goers and health-conscious users:
- Exercise search via wger API (690+ exercises, free, no auth)
- Nutrition lookup via USDA FoodData Central (380K+ foods, DEMO_KEY fallback)
- Offline body composition calculators (BMI, TDEE, 1RM, macros, body fat %)
- Pure stdlib Python, no pip dependencies
Changes from original PR:
- Moved from skills/ to optional-skills/health/ (correct location)
- Fixed BMR formula in FORMULAS.md (removed confusing -5+10, now just +5)
- Fixed author attribution to match PR submitter
- Marked USDA_API_KEY as optional (DEMO_KEY works without signup)
Also adds optional env var support to the skill readiness checker:
- New 'optional: true' field in required_environment_variables entries
- Optional vars are preserved in metadata but don't block skill readiness
- Optional vars skip the CLI capture prompt flow
- Skills with only optional missing vars show as 'available' not 'setup_needed'
Port two improvements inspired by Kilo-Org/kilocode analysis:
1. Error classifier: add context overflow patterns for vLLM, Ollama,
and llama.cpp/llama-server. These local inference servers return
different error formats than cloud providers (e.g., 'exceeds the
max_model_len', 'context length exceeded', 'slot context'). Without
these patterns, context overflow errors from local servers are
misclassified as format errors, causing infinite retries instead
of triggering compression.
2. MCP initial connection retry: previously, if the very first
connection attempt to an MCP server failed (e.g., transient DNS
blip at startup), the server was permanently marked as failed with
no retry. Post-connect reconnection had 5 retries with exponential
backoff, but initial connection had zero. Now initial connections
retry up to 3 times with backoff before giving up, matching the
resilience of post-connect reconnection.
(Inspired by Kilo Code's MCP server disappearing fix in v1.3.3)
Tests: 6 new error classifier tests, 4 new MCP retry tests, 1
updated existing test. All 276 affected tests pass.
On macOS, /etc is a symlink to /private/etc, so os.path.realpath()
resolves /etc/hosts to /private/etc/hosts. The sensitive path check
only matched /etc/ prefixes against the resolved path, allowing
writes to system files on macOS.
- Add /private/etc/ and /private/var/ to _SENSITIVE_PATH_PREFIXES
- Check both realpath-resolved and normpath-normalized paths
- Add regression tests for macOS symlink bypass

Three-tier match strategy for _truncate_around_matches():
1. Full-phrase search (exact query string positions)
2. Proximity co-occurrence (all terms within 200 chars)
3. Individual terms (fallback, preserves existing behavior)
Sliding window picks the start offset covering the most matches.
Moved inline import re to module level.

The terminal and execute_code tool schemas unconditionally mentioned
'cloud sandboxes' in their descriptions sent to the model. This caused
agents running on local backends to believe they were in a sandboxed
environment, refusing networking tasks and other operations. Worse,
agents sometimes saved this false belief to persistent memory, making
it persist across sessions.
Reported by multiple users (XLion, 林泽).
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
Add a CI-built skills index served from the docs site. The index is
crawled daily by GitHub Actions, resolves all GitHub paths upfront, and
is cached locally by the client. When the index is available:
- Search uses the cached index (0 GitHub API calls, was 23+)
- Install uses resolved paths from index (6 API calls for file
downloads only, was 31-45 for discovery + downloads)
Total: 68 → 6 GitHub API calls for a typical search + install flow.
Unauthenticated users (60 req/hr) can now search and install without
hitting rate limits.
Components:
- scripts/build_skills_index.py: Crawl all sources (skills.sh, GitHub
taps, official, clawhub, lobehub), batch-resolve GitHub paths via
tree API, output JSON index
- tools/skills_hub.py: HermesIndexSource class — search/fetch/inspect
backed by the index, with lazy GitHubSource for file downloads
- parallel_search_sources() skips external API sources when index is
available (0 GitHub calls for search)
- .github/workflows/skills-index.yml: twice-daily CI build + deploy
- .github/workflows/deploy-site.yml: also builds index during docs deploy
Graceful degradation: when the index is unavailable (first run, network
down, stale), all methods return empty/None and downstream sources
handle the request via direct API as before.
Skills.sh installs hit the GitHub API 45 times per install because the
same repo tree was fetched 6 times redundantly. Combined with search
(23 API calls), this totals 68 — exceeding the unauthenticated rate
limit of 60 req/hr, causing 'Could not fetch' errors for users without
a GITHUB_TOKEN.
Changes:
- Add _get_repo_tree() cache to GitHubSource — repo info + recursive
tree fetched once per repo per source instance, eliminating 10
redundant API calls (6 tree + 4 candidate 404s)
- _download_directory_via_tree returns {} (not None) when cached tree
shows path doesn't exist, skipping unnecessary Contents API fallback
- _check_rate_limit_response() detects exhausted quota and sets
is_rate_limited flag
- do_install() shows actionable hint when rate limited: set
GITHUB_TOKEN or install gh CLI
Before: 45 API calls per install (68 total with search)
After: 31 API calls per install (54 total with search — under 60/hr)
Reported by community user from Vietnam (no GitHub auth configured).
Centralize container detection in hermes_constants.is_container() with
process-lifetime caching, matching existing is_wsl()/is_termux() patterns.
Dedup _is_inside_container() in config.py to delegate to the new function.
Add _run_systemctl() wrapper that converts FileNotFoundError to RuntimeError
for defense-in-depth — all 10 bare subprocess.run(_systemctl_cmd(...)) call
sites now route through it.
Make supports_systemd_services() return False in containers and when
systemctl binary is absent (shutil.which check).
Add Docker-specific guidance in gateway_command() for install/uninstall/start
subcommands — exit 0 with helpful instructions instead of crashing.
Make 'hermes status' show 'Manager: docker (foreground)' and 'hermes dump'
show 'running (docker, pid N)' inside containers.
Fix setup_gateway() to use supports_systemd instead of _is_linux for all
systemd-related branches, and show Docker restart policy instructions in
containers.
Replace inline /.dockerenv check in voice_mode.py with is_container().

* fix: list all available toolsets in delegate_task schema description
The delegate_task tool's toolsets parameter description only mentioned
'terminal', 'file', and 'web' as examples. Models (especially smaller
ones like Gemma) would substitute 'web' for 'browser' because they
didn't know 'browser' was a valid option.
Now dynamically builds the toolset list from the TOOLSETS dict at import
time, excluding blocked, composite, and platform-specific toolsets.
Auto-updates when new toolsets are added.
Reported by jeffutter on Discord.
* chore: exclude moa and rl from delegate_task toolset list
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.
Rewrite the cronjob tool's 'deliver' parameter description to strongly
guide models toward omitting the parameter (which auto-detects origin
including thread/topic). The previous description listed all platform
names equally, inviting models to construct explicit targets like
'telegram:<chat_id>' which silently drops the thread_id.
New description:
- Leads with 'Omit this parameter' as the recommended path
- Explicitly warns that platform:chat_id without :thread_id loses topics
- Removes the long flat list of platform names that invited construction
Also adds diagnostic logging at two key points:
- _origin_from_env(): logs when thread_id is captured during job creation
- _deliver_result(): warns when origin has thread_id but delivery target
lost it; logs at debug when delivering to a specific thread
Helps diagnose user-reported issue where cron responses from Telegram
topics are delivered to the main chat instead of the originating topic.
* perf(ssh,modal): bulk file sync via tar pipe and tar/base64 archive
SSH: symlink-staging + tar -ch piped over SSH in a single TCP stream.
Eliminates per-file scp round-trips. Handles timeout (kills both
processes), SSH Popen failure (kills tar), and tar create failure.
Modal: in-memory gzipped tar archive, base64-encoded, decoded+extracted
in one exec call. Checks exit code and raises on failure.
Both backends use shared helpers extracted into file_sync.py:
- quoted_mkdir_command() — mirrors existing quoted_rm_command()
- unique_parent_dirs() — deduplicates parent dirs from file pairs
Migrates _ensure_remote_dirs to use the new helpers.
28 new tests (21 SSH + 7 Modal), all passing.
Closes#7465Closes#7467
* fix(modal): pipe stdin to avoid ARG_MAX, clean up review findings
- Modal bulk upload: stream base64 payload through proc.stdin in 1MB
chunks instead of embedding in command string (Modal SDK enforces
64KB ARG_MAX_BYTES — typical payloads are ~4.3MB)
- Modal single-file upload: same stdin fix, add exit code checking
- Remove what-narrating comments in ssh.py and modal.py (keep WHY
comments: symlink staging rationale, SIGPIPE, deadlock avoidance)
- Remove unnecessary `sandbox = self._sandbox` alias in modal bulk
- Daytona: use shared helpers (unique_parent_dirs, quoted_mkdir_command)
instead of inlined duplicates

The check_interval parameter on terminal_tool sent periodic output
updates to the gateway chat, but these were display-only — the agent
couldn't see or act on them. This added schema bloat and introduced
a bug where notify_on_complete=True was silently dropped when
check_interval was also set (the not-check_interval guard skipped
fast-watcher registration, and the check_interval watcher dict
was missing the notify_on_complete key).
Removing check_interval entirely:
- Eliminates the notify_on_complete interaction bug
- Reduces tool schema size (one fewer parameter for the model)
- Simplifies the watcher registration path
- notify_on_complete (agent wake-on-completion) still works
- watch_patterns (output alerting) still works
- process(action='poll') covers manual status checking
Closes#7947 (root cause eliminated rather than patched).
Deduplicate todo items by ID before writing to the store, keeping the
last occurrence. Prevents ghost entries when the model sends duplicate
IDs in a single write() call, which corrupts subsequent merge operations.

Three root causes of the 'agent stops mid-task' gateway bug:
1. Compression threshold floor (64K tokens minimum)
- The 50% threshold on a 100K-context model fired at 50K tokens,
causing premature compression that made models lose track of
multi-step plans. Now threshold_tokens = max(50% * context, 64K).
- Models with <64K context are rejected at startup with a clear error.
2. Budget warning removal — grace call instead
- Removed the 70%/90% iteration budget warnings entirely. These
injected '[BUDGET WARNING: Provide your final response NOW]' into
tool results, causing models to abandon complex tasks prematurely.
- Now: no warnings during normal execution. When the budget is
actually exhausted (90/90), inject a user message asking the model
to summarise, allow one grace API call, and only then fall back
to _handle_max_iterations.
3. Activity touches during long terminal execution
- _wait_for_process polls every 0.2s but never reported activity.
The gateway's inactivity timeout (default 1800s) would fire during
long-running commands that appeared 'idle.'
- Now: thread-local activity callback fires every 10s during the
poll loop, keeping the gateway's activity tracker alive.
- Agent wires _touch_activity into the callback before each tool call.
Also: docs update noting 64K minimum context requirement.
Closes#7915 (root cause was agent-loop termination, not Weixin delivery limits).
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.
Adds _normalize_path() helper that calls expanduser().resolve() to
properly handle tilde paths (e.g. ~/.hermes, ~/.config). Previously
Path.resolve() alone treated ~ as a literal directory name, producing
invalid paths like /root/~/.hermes.
Also improves _run_git() error handling to distinguish missing working
directories from missing git executable, and adds pre-flight directory
validation.

Fixes#7807
_write_to_sandbox interpolated storage_dir and remote_path directly into
a shell command passed to env.execute(). Paths containing shell
metacharacters (spaces, semicolons, $(), backticks) could trigger
arbitrary command execution inside the sandbox.
Fix: wrap both paths with shlex.quote(). Clean paths (alphanumeric +
slashes/hyphens/dots) are left unmodified by shlex.quote, so existing
behavior is unchanged. Paths with unsafe characters get single-quoted.
Tests added for spaces, $(command) substitution, and semicolon injection.
This commit addresses a security vulnerability where unsanitized user inputs for commit_hash and file_path were passed directly to git commands in CheckpointManager.restore() and diff(). It validates commit hashes to be strictly hexadecimal characters without leading dashes (preventing flag injection like '--patch') and enforces file paths to stay within the working directory via root resolution. Regression tests test_restore_rejects_argument_injection, test_restore_rejects_invalid_hex_chars, and test_restore_rejects_path_traversal were added.
The interrupt mechanism in tools/interrupt.py used a process-global
threading.Event. In the gateway, multiple agents run concurrently in
the same process via run_in_executor. When any agent was interrupted
(user sends a follow-up message), the global flag killed ALL agents'
running tools — terminal commands, browser ops, web requests — across
all sessions.
Changes:
- tools/interrupt.py: Replace single threading.Event with a set of
interrupted thread IDs. set_interrupt() targets a specific thread;
is_interrupted() checks the current thread. Includes a backward-
compatible _ThreadAwareEventProxy for legacy _interrupt_event usage.
- run_agent.py: Store execution thread ID at start of run_conversation().
interrupt() and clear_interrupt() pass it to set_interrupt() so only
this agent's thread is affected.
- tools/code_execution_tool.py: Use is_interrupted() instead of
directly checking _interrupt_event.is_set().
- tools/process_registry.py: Same — use is_interrupted().
- tests: Update interrupt tests for per-thread semantics. Add new
TestPerThreadInterruptIsolation with two tests verifying cross-thread
isolation.
When a Python process exits uncleanly (SIGKILL, crash, gateway restart
via hermes update), in-memory _active_sessions tracking is lost but the
agent-browser node daemons and their Chromium child processes keep
running indefinitely. On a long-running system this causes unbounded
memory growth — 24 orphaned sessions consumed 7.6 GB on a production
machine over 9 days.
Add _reap_orphaned_browser_sessions() which scans the tmp directory for
agent-browser-{h_*,cdp_*} socket dirs on cleanup thread startup. For
each dir not tracked by the current process, reads the daemon PID file
and sends SIGTERM if the daemon is still alive. Handles edge cases:
dead PIDs, corrupt PID files, permission errors, foreign processes.
The reaper runs once on thread startup (not every 30s) to avoid races
with sessions being actively created by concurrent agents.
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.

Independent halving of width and height caused aspect ratio distortion
for extreme dimensions (e.g. 8000x200 panoramas). When one axis hit the
64px floor, the other kept shrinking — collapsing the ratio toward 1:1.
Use proportional scaling instead: when either dimension hits the floor,
derive the effective scale factor and apply it to both axes.
Add tests for extreme panorama (8000x200) and tall narrow (200x6000)
images to verify aspect ratio preservation.
Cherry-picked from PR #7749 by kshitijk4poor with modifications:
- Raise hard image limit from 5 MB to 20 MB (matches most restrictive provider)
- Send images at full resolution first; only auto-resize to 5 MB on API failure
- Add _is_image_size_error() helper to detect size-related API rejections
- Auto-resize uses Pillow (soft dep) with progressive downscale + JPEG quality reduction
- Fix get_model_capabilities() to check modalities.input for vision support
- Increase default vision timeout from 30s to 120s (matches hardcoded fallback intent)
- Applied retry-with-resize to both vision_analyze_tool and browser_vision
Closes#7740
* 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.
Three fixes for vision_analyze returning cryptic 400 "Invalid request data":
1. Pre-flight base64 size check — base64 inflates data ~33%, so a 3.8 MB
file exceeds the 5 MB API limit. Reject early with a clear message
instead of letting the provider return a generic 400.
2. Handle file:// URIs — strip the scheme and resolve as a local path.
Previously file:///path/to/image.png fell through to the "invalid
image source" error since it matched neither is_file() nor http(s).
3. Separate invalid_request errors from "does not support vision" errors
so the user gets actionable guidance (resize/compress/retry) instead
of a misleading "model does not support vision" message.
Closes#6677
vision_tools.py: _download_image() loads the full HTTP response body into
memory via response.content (line 190) with no Content-Length check and no
max file size limit. An attacker-hosted multi-gigabyte file causes OOM.
Add a 50 MB hard cap: check Content-Length header before download, and
verify actual body size before writing to disk.
hermes_parser.py: tc_data["name"] at line 57 raises KeyError when the LLM
outputs a tool call JSON without a "name" field. The outer except catches
it silently, causing the entire tool call to be lost with zero diagnostics.
Add "name" field validation before constructing the ChatCompletionMessage.
mistral_parser.py: tc["name"] at line 101 has the same KeyError issue in
the pre-v11 format path. The fallback decoder (line 112) already checks
"name" correctly, but the primary path does not. Add validation to match.

process_registry.py: _reader_loop() has process.wait() after the try-except
block (line 380). If the reader thread crashes with an unexpected exception
(e.g. MemoryError, KeyboardInterrupt), control exits the except handler but
skips wait() — leaving the child as a zombie process. Move wait() and the
cleanup into a finally block so the child is always reaped.
cron/scheduler.py: _run_job_script() only redacts secrets in stdout on the
SUCCESS path (line 417-421). When a cron script fails (non-zero exit), both
stdout and stderr are returned WITHOUT redaction (lines 407-413). A script
that accidentally prints an API key to stderr during a failure would leak it
into the LLM context. Move redaction before the success/failure branch so
both paths benefit.
skill_commands.py: _build_skill_message() enumerates supporting files using
rglob("*") but only checks is_file() (line 171) without filtering symlinks.
PR #6693 added symlink protection to scan_skill_commands() but missed this
function. A malicious skill can create symlinks in references/ pointing to
arbitrary files, exposing their paths (and potentially content via skill_view)
to the LLM. Add is_symlink() check to match the guard in scan_skill_commands.

_discover_bundled_skills() used the directory name to identify skills,
but skills_tool.py and skills_hub.py use the `name:` field from SKILL.md
frontmatter. This mismatch caused 9 builtin skills whose directory name
differs from their SKILL.md name to be written to .bundled_manifest
under the wrong key, so `hermes skills list` showed them as "local"
instead of "builtin".
Read the frontmatter name field (with directory-name fallback) so the
manifest keys match what the rest of the codebase expects.
Closes#6835
- Remove unreachable `if not content_sample` branch inside the truthy
`if content_sample` block in `_is_likely_binary()` (dead code that
could never execute).
- Replace `linter_cmd.format(file=...)` with `linter_cmd.replace("{file}", ...)`
in `_check_lint()` so file paths containing curly braces (e.g.
`src/{test}.py`) no longer raise KeyError/ValueError.
- Add 16 unit tests covering both fixes and edge cases.

Add delegation.reasoning_effort config key so subagents can run at a
different thinking level than the parent agent. When set, overrides
the parent's reasoning_config; when empty, inherits as before.
Valid values: xhigh, high, medium, low, minimal, none (disables thinking).
Config path: delegation.reasoning_effort in config.yaml
Files changed:
- tools/delegate_tool.py: resolve override in _build_child_agent
- hermes_cli/config.py: add reasoning_effort to DEFAULT_CONFIG
- tests/tools/test_delegate.py: 4 new tests covering all cases
warnings.warn() is suppressed/invisible when running as a gateway
or agent. Switch to logger.warning() so the disk cap message
actually appears in logs.
Fixes#7362 (item 3).
FileSyncManager now accepts an optional bulk_upload_fn callback.
When provided, all changed files are uploaded in one call instead
of iterating one-by-one with individual HTTP POSTs.
DaytonaEnvironment wires this to sandbox.fs.upload_files() which
batches everything into a single multipart POST — ~580 files goes
from ~5 min to <2s on init.
Parent directories are pre-created in one mkdir -p call.
Fixes#7362 (item 1).
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

Call child.close() in the _run_single_child finally block after
unregistering the child from the parent's active children list.
Previously child AIAgent instances were only removed from the tracking
list but never had their resources released — the OpenAI/httpx client
and any tool subprocesses relied entirely on garbage collection.
Ref: #7131
- Bug 1: replace read_file(limit=10000) with read_file_raw in _apply_update,
preventing silent truncation of files >2000 lines and corruption of lines
>2000 chars; add read_file_raw to FileOperations abstract interface and
ShellFileOperations
- Bug 2: split apply_v4a_operations into validate-then-apply phases; if any
hunk fails validation, zero writes occur (was: continue after failure,
leaving filesystem partially modified)
- Bug 3: parse_v4a_patch now returns an error for begin-marker-with-no-ops,
empty file paths, and moves missing a destination (was: always returned
error=None)
- Bug 4: raise strategy 7 (block anchor) single-candidate similarity threshold
from 0.10 to 0.50, eliminating false-positive matches in repetitive code
- Bug 5: add _strategy_unicode_normalized (new strategy 7) with position
mapping via _build_orig_to_norm_map; smart quotes and em-dashes in
LLM-generated patches now match via strategies 1-6 before falling through
to fuzzy strategies
- Bug 6: extend fuzzy_find_and_replace to return 4-tuple (content, count,
error, strategy); update all 5 call sites across patch_parser.py,
file_operations.py, and skill_manager_tool.py
- Bug 7: guard in _apply_update returns error when addition-only context hint
is ambiguous (>1 occurrences); validation phase errors on both 0 and >1
- Bug 8: _apply_delete returns error (not silent success) on missing file
- Bug 9: _validate_operations checks source existence and destination absence
for MOVE operations before any write occurs
Three locations perform `int()` conversion on environment variables or
HTTP headers without error handling, causing unhandled `ValueError` crashes
when the values are non-numeric:
1. `send_message_tool.py` — `EMAIL_SMTP_PORT` env var parsed outside the
try/except block; a non-numeric value crashes `_send_email()` instead
of returning a user-friendly error.
2. `process_registry.py` — `TERMINAL_TIMEOUT` env var parsed without
protection; a non-numeric value crashes the `wait()` method.
3. `skills_hub.py` — HTTP `Retry-After` header can contain date strings
per RFC 7231; `int()` conversion crashes on non-numeric values.
All three now fall back to their default values on `ValueError`/`TypeError`.
Two issues with sandbox container spawning:
1. PID 1 was `sleep 2h` which doesn't call wait() — every background
process that exited became a zombie (<defunct>), and the process
tool reported them as "running" because zombie PIDs still exist in
the process table. Fix: add --init to docker run, which uses
tini (Docker) or catatonit (Podman) as PID 1 to reap children
automatically. Both runtimes support --init natively.
2. The fixed 2-hour lifetime was arbitrary and sometimes too short
for long agent sessions. Fix: replace 'sleep 2h' with
'sleep infinity'. The idle reaper (_cleanup_inactive_envs, gated
by terminal.lifetime_seconds, default 300s) already handles
cleanup based on last activity timestamp — there's no need for
the container itself to have a fixed death timer.
Fixes#6908.
`delegate_task` silently truncated batch tasks to 3 — the model sends
5 tasks, gets results for 3, never told 2 were dropped. Now returns a
clear tool_error explaining the limit and how to fix it.
The limit is configurable via:
- delegation.max_concurrent_children in config.yaml (priority 1)
- DELEGATION_MAX_CONCURRENT_CHILDREN env var (priority 2)
- default: 3
Uses the same _load_config() path as the rest of delegate_task for
consistent config priority. Clamps to min 1, warns on non-integer
config values.
Also removes the hardcoded maxItems: 3 from the JSON schema — the
schema was blocking the model from even attempting >3 tasks before
the runtime check could fire. The runtime check gives a much more
actionable error message.
Backwards compatible: default remains 3, existing configs unchanged.
Isolate system tool configs (git, ssh, gh, npm) per profile by injecting
a per-profile HOME into subprocess environments only. The Python
process's own os.environ['HOME'] and Path.home() are never modified,
preserving all existing profile infrastructure.
Activation is directory-based: when {HERMES_HOME}/home/ exists on disk,
subprocesses see it as HOME. The directory is created automatically for:
- Docker: entrypoint.sh bootstraps it inside the persistent volume
- Named profiles: added to _PROFILE_DIRS in profiles.py
Injection points (all three subprocess env builders):
- tools/environments/local.py _make_run_env() — foreground terminal
- tools/environments/local.py _sanitize_subprocess_env() — background procs
- tools/code_execution_tool.py child_env — execute_code sandbox
Single source of truth: hermes_constants.get_subprocess_home()
Closes#4426
hermes skills browse ran all 7 source adapters serially with no overall
timeout and no progress indicator. On a cold cache, GitHubSource alone
could make 100+ sequential HTTP calls (directory listing + inspect per
skill per tap), taking 5+ minutes with no output — appearing to hang.
Changes:
- Add parallel_search_sources() in tools/skills_hub.py that runs all
source adapters concurrently via ThreadPoolExecutor with a 30s
overall timeout. Sources that finish in time contribute results;
slow ones are skipped gracefully with a visible notice.
- Update unified_search() to use parallel_search_sources() internally.
- Update do_browse() and do_search() in hermes_cli/skills_hub.py to
show a Rich spinner while fetching, so the user sees activity.
- Bump per-source limits (clawhub 50→500, lobehub 50→500, etc.) now
that fetching is parallel — yields far more results per browse.
- Report timed-out sources and suggest re-running for cached results.
- Replace 'inspect/install' footer with 'search deeper' tip.
Worst-case latency drops from 5+ minutes (serial) to ~30s (parallel
with timeout cap). Result count should jump from ~242 to 1000+.
When delegate_task runs, the parent agent's activity tracker freezes
because child.run_conversation() blocks and the child's own
_touch_activity() never propagates back to the parent. The gateway
inactivity timeout then fires a spurious 'No activity' warning and
eventually kills the agent, even though the subagent is actively working.
Fix: add a heartbeat thread in _run_single_child that calls
parent._touch_activity() every 30 seconds with detail from the child's
activity summary (current tool, iteration count). The thread is a daemon
that starts before child.run_conversation() and is cleaned up in the
finally block.
This also improves the gateway 'Still working...' status messages —
instead of just 'running: delegate_task', users now see what the
subagent is actually doing (e.g., 'delegate_task: subagent running
terminal (iteration 5/50)').

Salvaged from PR #6747 by Zihan Huang.
Four gaps in DANGEROUS_PATTERNS found by running 10 targeted tests that
each mapped to a specific pattern in approval.py and checked whether the
documented defense actually held.
1. **Heredoc script injection** — `python3 << 'EOF'` bypasses the
existing `-e`/`-c` flag pattern. Adds pattern for interpreter + `<<`
covering python{2,3}, perl, ruby, node.
2. **PID expansion self-termination** — `kill -9 $(pgrep hermes)` is
opaque to the existing `pkill|killall` + name pattern because command
substitution is not expanded at detection time. Adds structural
patterns matching `kill` + `$(pgrep` and backtick variants.
3. **Git destructive operations** — `git reset --hard`, `push --force`,
`push -f`, `clean -f*`, and `branch -D` were entirely absent.
Note: `branch -d` also triggers because IGNORECASE is global —
acceptable since -d is still a delete, just a safe one, and the
prompt is only a confirmation, not a hard block.
4. **chmod +x then execute** — two-step social engineering where a
script containing dangerous commands is first written to disk (not
checked by write_file), then made executable and run as `./script`.
Pattern catches `chmod +x ... [;&|]+ ./` combos. Does not solve the
deeper architectural issue (write_file not checking content) — that
is called out in the PR description as a known limitation.
Tests: 23 new cases across 4 test classes, all in test_approval.py:
- TestHeredocScriptExecution (7 cases, incl. regressions for -c)
- TestPgrepKillExpansion (5 cases, incl. safe kill PID negative)
- TestGitDestructiveOps (8 cases, incl. safe git status/push negatives)
- TestChmodExecuteCombo (3 cases, incl. safe chmod-only negative)
Full suite: 146 passed, 0 failed.
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
When kill_process() sends SIGTERM, both it and the reader thread race
to call _move_to_finished() — kill_process sets exit_code=-15 and
enqueues a notification, then the reader thread's process.wait()
returns with exit_code=143 (128+SIGTERM) and enqueues a second one.
Fix: make _move_to_finished() idempotent by tracking whether the
session was actually removed from _running. The second call sees it
was already moved and skips the completion_queue.put().
Adds regression test: test_move_to_finished_idempotent_no_duplicate

When an MCP server returns both content (model-oriented text) and
structuredContent (machine-oriented JSON), the client now combines
them instead of discarding content. The text content becomes the
primary result (what the agent reads), and structuredContent is
included as supplementary metadata.
Previously, structuredContent took full precedence — causing data
loss for servers like Desktop Commander that put the actual file
text in content and metadata in structuredContent.
MCP spec guidance: for conversational/agent UX, prefer content.
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 Discord thread support to cron delivery and send_message_tool.
- _parse_target_ref: handle discord platform with chat_id:thread_id format
- _send_discord: add thread_id param, route to /channels/{thread_id}/messages
- _send_to_platform: pass thread_id through for Discord
- Discord adapter send(): read thread_id from metadata for gateway path
- Update tool schema description to document Discord thread targets
Cherry-picked from PR #7046 by pandacooming (maxyangcn).
Follow-up fixes:
- Restore proxy support (resolve_proxy_url/proxy_kwargs_for_aiohttp) that was
accidentally deleted — would have caused NameError at runtime
- Remove duplicate _DISCORD_TARGET_RE regex; reuse existing _TELEGRAM_TOPIC_TARGET_RE
via _NUMERIC_TOPIC_RE alias (identical pattern)
- Fix misleading test comments about Discord negative snowflake IDs
(Discord uses positive snowflakes; negative IDs are a Telegram convention)
- Rewrite misleading scheduler test that claimed to exercise home channel
fallback but actually tested the explicit platform:chat_id parsing path
The same .* pattern vulnerable to newline bypass that was fixed in
prompt_builder.py (PR #6925) also existed in skills_guard.py. Changed
to [\s\S]*? to match across newlines.
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.

Three silent `except Exception` blocks in approval.py (lines 345, 387, 469) return
fallback values with zero logging — making it impossible to debug callback failures,
allowlist load errors, or config read issues. Add logger.warning/error calls that
match the pattern already used by save_permanent_allowlist() and _smart_approve()
in the same file.
In mcp_oauth.py, narrow the overly-broad `except Exception` in get_tokens() and
get_client_info() to the specific exceptions Pydantic's model_validate() can raise
(ValueError, TypeError, KeyError), and include the exception message in the warning.
Also wrap the _wait_for_callback() polling loop in try/finally so the HTTPServer is
always closed — previously an asyncio.CancelledError or any exception in the loop
would leak the server socket.

error_classifier.py: Message-only auth errors ("invalid api key", "unauthorized",
etc.) were classified as retryable=True (line 707), inconsistent with the HTTP 401
path (line 432) which correctly uses retryable=False + should_fallback=True. The
mismatch causes 3 wasted retries with the same broken credential before fallback,
while 401 errors immediately attempt fallback. Align the message-based path to
match: retryable=False, should_fallback=True.
web_tools.py: The _PREFIX_RE secret-detection check in web_extract_tool() runs
against the raw URL string (line 1196). URL-encoded secrets like %73k-1234... (
sk-1234...) bypass the filter because the regex expects literal ASCII. Add
urllib.parse.unquote() before the check so percent-encoded variants are also caught.

Replace per-backend ad-hoc file sync with a shared FileSyncManager
that handles mtime-based change detection, remote deletion of
locally-removed files, and transactional state updates.
- New FileSyncManager class (tools/environments/file_sync.py)
with callbacks for upload/delete, rate limiting, and rollback
- Shared iter_sync_files() eliminates 3 duplicate implementations
- SSH: replace unconditional rsync with scp + mtime skip
- Modal/Daytona: replace inline _synced_files dict with manager
- All 3 backends now sync credentials + skills + cache uniformly
- Remote deletion: files removed locally are cleaned from remote
- HERMES_FORCE_FILE_SYNC=1 env var for debugging
- Base class _before_execute() simplified to empty hook
- 12 unit tests covering mtime skip, deletion, rollback, rate limiting
Change behavior from silent clamping to returning an error when the
model requests a foreground timeout exceeding FOREGROUND_MAX_TIMEOUT.
This forces the model to use background=true for long-running commands
rather than silently changing its intent.
- Config default timeouts above the cap are NOT rejected (user's choice)
- Only explicit model-requested timeouts trigger rejection
- Added boundary test for timeout exactly at the limit
When the model calls terminal() in foreground mode without background=true
(e.g. to start a server), the tool call blocks until the command exits or
the timeout expires. Without an upper bound the model can request arbitrarily
high timeouts (the schema had minimum=1 but no maximum), blocking the entire
agent session for hours until the gateway idle watchdog kills it.
Changes:
- Add FOREGROUND_MAX_TIMEOUT (600s, configurable via
TERMINAL_MAX_FOREGROUND_TIMEOUT env var) that caps foreground timeout
- Clamp effective_timeout to the cap when background=false and timeout
exceeds the limit
- Include a timeout_note in the tool result when clamped, nudging the
model to use background=true for long-running processes
- Update schema description to show the max timeout value
- Remove dead clamping code in the background branch that could never
fire (max_timeout was set to effective_timeout, so timeout > max_timeout
was always false)
- Add 7 tests covering clamping, no-clamping, config-default-exceeds-cap
edge case, background bypass, default timeout, constant value, and
schema content
Self-review fixes:
- Fixed bug where timeout_note said 'Requested timeout Nones' when
clamping fired from config default exceeding cap (timeout param is
None). Now uses unclamped_timeout instead of the raw timeout param.
- Removed unused pytest import from test file
- Extracted test config dict into _make_env_config() helper
- Fixed tautological test_default_value assertion
- Added missing test for config default > cap with no model timeout
Replace 6 identical copies of the Termux detection function across
cli.py, browser_tool.py, voice_mode.py, status.py, doctor.py, and
gateway.py with a single shared implementation in hermes_constants.py.
Each call site imports with its original local name to preserve all
existing callers (internal references and test monkeypatches).
When managed_persistence is enabled, cleanup_all now only clears local
tracking state without sending DELETE requests to the Camofox server.
This prevents persistent browser profiles (cookies, logins, localStorage)
from being destroyed during process-wide cleanup.
Ephemeral sessions still get full server-side deletion as before.
Follow-up improvements on top of the shared resolver from PR #6562:
- Add platform_env_var parameter to resolve_proxy_url() so DISCORD_PROXY
takes priority over generic HTTPS_PROXY/ALL_PROXY env vars
- Add SOCKS proxy support via aiohttp_socks.ProxyConnector with rdns=True
(critical for GFW/Shadowrocket/Clash users — issue #6649)
- proxy_kwargs_for_bot() returns connector= for SOCKS, proxy= for HTTP
- proxy_kwargs_for_aiohttp() returns split (session_kw, request_kw) for
standalone aiohttp sessions
- Add proxy support to send_message_tool.py (Discord REST, Slack, SMS)
for cron job delivery behind proxies (from PR #2208)
- Add proxy support to Discord image/document downloads
- Fix duplicate import sys in base.py
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
- 52 new tests (format, edit, streaming, splitting, tool chunking)
- Use reversed(dict) idiom for placeholder restoration
Based on PR #3715 by dashed, cherry-picked onto current main.
`_cleanup_task_resources` was unconditionally calling `cleanup_vm()` at
the end of every `run_conversation` (i.e. every user turn), tearing down
the docker/daytona/modal sandbox container regardless of its
`persistent_filesystem` setting. This contradicted the documented intent
of `terminal.lifetime_seconds` (idle reaper) and `container_persistent`,
and caused per-turn loss of `/workspace`, `~/.config`, agent CLI auth
state, and any other content living inside the sandbox.
The unconditional teardown was introduced in fbd3a2fd ("prevent leakage
of morph instances between tasks", 2025-11-04) to plug a Morph backend
leak, two days after `lifetime_seconds` shipped in faecbddd. It was
later refactored into `_cleanup_task_resources` in 70dd3a16 without
changing semantics. Code and docs have disagreed since.
Fix: introduce `terminal_tool.is_persistent_env(task_id)` and skip the
per-turn `cleanup_vm` when the active env is persistent. The idle reaper
(`_cleanup_inactive_envs`) still tears persistent envs down once
`terminal.lifetime_seconds` is exceeded. Non-persistent backends (Morph)
are unchanged — still torn down per turn, preserving the original
leak-prevention intent.

mistralai v2.x is a namespace package — `Mistral` class lives at
`mistralai.client`, not at the top-level `mistralai` module. The
previous `from mistralai import Mistral` raises ImportError at runtime.
Update both production code and test fixture to use the correct path.
* fix(tools): skip camofox auto-cleanup when managed persistence is enabled
When managed_persistence is enabled, cleanup_browser() was calling
camofox_close() which destroys the server-side browser context via
DELETE /sessions/{userId}, killing login sessions across cron runs.
Add camofox_soft_cleanup() — a public wrapper that drops only the
in-memory session entry when managed persistence is on, returning True.
When persistence is off it returns False so the caller falls back to
the full camofox_close(). The inactivity reaper still handles idle
resource cleanup.
Also surface a logger.warning() when _managed_persistence_enabled()
fails to load config, replacing a silent except-and-return-False.
Salvaged from #6182 by el-analista (Eduardo Perea Fernandez).
Added public API wrapper to avoid cross-module private imports,
and test coverage for both persistence paths.

* fix(doctor): only check the active memory provider, not all providers unconditionally
hermes doctor had hardcoded Honcho Memory and Mem0 Memory sections that
always ran regardless of the user's memory.provider config setting. After
the swappable memory provider update (#4623), users with leftover Honcho
config but no active provider saw false 'broken' errors.
Replaced both sections with a single Memory Provider section that reads
memory.provider from config.yaml and only checks the configured provider.
Users with no external provider see a green 'Built-in memory active' check.
Reported by community user michaelruiz001, confirmed by Eri (Honcho).

Previously crash recovery recreated detached sessions as if they were
fully managed, so polls and kills could lie about liveness and the
checkpoint could forget recovered jobs after the next restart.
This commit refreshes recovered host-backed sessions from real PID
state, keeps checkpoint data durable, and preserves notify watcher
metadata while treating sandbox-only PIDs as non-recoverable.
- Persist `pid_scope` in `tools/process_registry.py` and skip
recovering sandbox-backed entries without a host-visible PID handle
- Refresh detached sessions on access so `get`/`poll`/`wait` and active
session queries observe exited processes instead of hanging forever
- Allow recovered host PIDs to be terminated honestly and requeue
`notify_on_complete` watchers during checkpoint recovery
- Add regression tests for durable checkpoints, detached exit/kill
behavior, sandbox skip logic, and recovered notify watchers
- DEFAULT_RESULT_SIZE_CHARS: 50K -> 100K (match current _LARGE_RESULT_CHARS)
- DEFAULT_PREVIEW_SIZE_CHARS: 2K -> 1.5K (match current _LARGE_RESULT_PREVIEW_CHARS)
- Per-tool overrides all set to 100K (terminal, execute_code, search_files)
- Remove pre-read byte guard (no behavioral regression vs current main)
- Revert limit signature change to int=500 (match current default)
- Restore original read_file schema description
- Update test assertions to match 100K thresholds
Add BudgetConfig dataclass to centralize and make overridable the
hardcoded constants (50K per-result, 200K per-turn, 2K preview) that
control when tool outputs get persisted to sandbox. Configurable at
the RL environment level via HermesAgentEnvConfig fields, threaded
through HermesAgentLoop to the storage layer.
Resolution: pinned (read_file=inf) > env config overrides > registry
per-tool > default. CLI override: --env.turn_budget_chars 80000
_deliver_result() now returns Optional[str] — None on success, error
message on failure. All failure paths (unknown platform, platform
disabled, config load error, send failure, unresolvable target)
return descriptive error strings.
mark_job_run() gains delivery_error param, tracked as
last_delivery_error on the job — separate from agent execution errors.
A job where the agent succeeded but delivery failed shows
last_status='ok' + last_delivery_error='...'.
The cronjob list tool now surfaces last_delivery_error so agents and
users can see when cron outputs aren't arriving.
Inspired by PR #5863 (oxngon) — reimplemented with proper wiring.
Tests: 3 new mark_job_run tests + 6 new _deliver_result return tests.
- The MCP SDK Pydantic model uses camelCase (structuredContent), not
snake_case (structured_content). The original getattr was a silent no-op.
- When structuredContent is present, return it AS the result instead of
alongside text — the structured payload is the machine-readable data.
- Move test file to tests/tools/ and fix fake class to use camelCase.
- Patch _run_on_mcp_loop in tests so the handler actually executes.
MCP CallToolResult may include structured_content (a JSON object) alongside
content blocks. The tool handler previously only forwarded concatenated text
from content blocks, silently dropping the structured payload.
This breaks MCP tools that return a minimal human text in content while
putting the actual machine-usable payload in structured_content.
Now, when structured_content is present, it is included in the returned
JSON under the 'structuredContent' key.

- Add 7 unit tests for _profile_arg: default home, named profile,
hash path, nested path, invalid name, systemd integration, launchd integration
- Add stt.local.language to config.yaml (empty = auto-detect)
- Both STT code paths now read config.yaml first, env var fallback,
then default (auto-detect for faster-whisper, 'en' for CLI command)
- HERMES_LOCAL_STT_LANGUAGE env var still works as backward-compat fallback
- gateway/run.py: Strip "(The user sent a message with no text content)"
placeholder when voice transcription succeeds — it was being appended
alongside the transcript, creating duplicate user turns.
- tools/transcription_tools.py: Wire HERMES_LOCAL_STT_LANGUAGE env var
into the faster-whisper backend. It was only used by the CLI fallback
path (_transcribe_local_command), not the primary faster-whisper path.
Replace 10 callsites across 6 files that manually opened config.yaml,
called yaml.safe_load(), and handled missing-file/parse-error fallbacks
with the new read_raw_config() helper from hermes_cli/config.py.
Each migrated site previously had 5-8 lines of boilerplate:
config_path = get_hermes_home() / 'config.yaml'
if config_path.exists():
import yaml
with open(config_path) as f:
cfg = yaml.safe_load(f) or {}
Now reduced to:
from hermes_cli.config import read_raw_config
cfg = read_raw_config()
Migrated files:
- tools/browser_tool.py (4 sites): command_timeout, cloud_provider,
allow_private_urls, record_sessions
- tools/env_passthrough.py: terminal.env_passthrough
- tools/credential_files.py: terminal.credential_files
- tools/transcription_tools.py: stt.model
- hermes_cli/commands.py: config-gated command resolution
- hermes_cli/auth.py (2 sites): model config read + provider reset
Skipped (intentionally):
- gateway/run.py: 10+ sites with local aliases, critical path
- hermes_cli/profiles.py: profile-specific config path
- hermes_cli/doctor.py: reads raw then writes fixes back
- agent/model_metadata.py: different file (context_length_cache.yaml)
- tools/website_policy.py: custom config_path param + error types
* refactor: re-architect tests to mirror the codebase
* Update tests.yml
* fix: add missing tool_error imports after registry refactor
* fix(tests): replace patch.dict with monkeypatch to prevent env var leaks under xdist
patch.dict(os.environ) can leak TERMINAL_ENV across xdist workers,
causing test_code_execution tests to hit the Modal remote path.
* fix(tests): fix update_check and telegram xdist failures
- test_update_check: replace patch("hermes_cli.banner.os.getenv") with
monkeypatch.setenv("HERMES_HOME") — banner.py no longer imports os
directly, it uses get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants.
- test_telegram_conflict/approval_buttons: provide real exception classes
for telegram.error mock (NetworkError, TimedOut, BadRequest) so the
except clause in connect() doesn't fail with "catching classes that do
not inherit from BaseException" when xdist pollutes sys.modules.
* fix(tests): accept unavailable_models kwarg in _prompt_model_selection mock
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.
* feat: switch managed browser provider from Browserbase to Browser Use
The Nous subscription tool gateway now routes browser automation through
Browser Use instead of Browserbase. This commit:
- Adds managed Nous gateway support to BrowserUseProvider (idempotency
keys, X-BB-API-Key auth header, external_call_id persistence)
- Removes managed gateway support from BrowserbaseProvider (now
direct-only via BROWSERBASE_API_KEY/BROWSERBASE_PROJECT_ID)
- Updates browser_tool.py fallback: prefers Browser Use over Browserbase
- Updates nous_subscription.py: gateway vendor 'browser-use', auto-config
sets cloud_provider='browser-use' for new subscribers
- Updates tools_config.py: Nous Subscription entry now uses Browser Use
- Updates setup.py, cli.py, status.py, prompt_builder.py display strings
- Updates all affected tests to match new behavior
Browserbase remains fully functional for users with direct API credentials.
The change only affects the managed/subscription path.
* chore: remove redundant Browser Use hint from system prompt
* fix: upgrade Browser Use provider to v3 API
- Base URL: api/v2 -> api/v3 (v2 is legacy)
- Unified all endpoints to use native Browser Use paths:
- POST /browsers (create session, returns cdpUrl)
- PATCH /browsers/{id} with {action: stop} (close session)
- Removed managed-mode branching that used Browserbase-style
/v1/sessions paths — v3 gateway now supports /browsers directly
- Removed unused managed_mode variable in close_session
* fix(browser-use): use X-Browser-Use-API-Key header for managed mode
The managed gateway expects X-Browser-Use-API-Key, not X-BB-API-Key
(which is a Browserbase-specific header). Using the wrong header caused
a 401 AUTH_ERROR on every managed-mode browser session create.
Simplified _headers() to always use X-Browser-Use-API-Key regardless
of direct vs managed mode.
* fix(nous_subscription): browserbase explicit provider is direct-only
Since managed Nous gateway now routes through Browser Use, the
browserbase explicit provider path should not check managed_browser_available
(which resolves against the browser-use gateway). Simplified to direct-only
with managed=False.
* fix(browser-use): port missing improvements from PR #5605
- CDP URL normalization: resolve HTTP discovery URLs to websocket after
cloud provider create_session() (prevents agent-browser failures)
- Managed session payload: send timeout=5 and proxyCountryCode=us for
gateway-backed sessions (prevents billing overruns)
- Update prompt builder, browser_close schema, and module docstring to
replace remaining Browserbase references with Browser Use
- Dynamic /browser status detection via _get_cloud_provider() instead
of hardcoded env var checks (future-proof for new providers)
- Rename post_setup key from 'browserbase' to 'agent_browser'
- Update setup hint to mention Browser Use alongside Browserbase
- Add tests: CDP normalization, browserbase direct-only guard,
managed browser-use gateway, direct browserbase fallback

* refactor: remove browser_close tool — auto-cleanup handles it
The browser_close tool was called in only 9% of browser sessions (13/144
navigations across 66 sessions), always redundantly — cleanup_browser()
already runs via _cleanup_task_resources() at conversation end, and the
background inactivity reaper catches anything else.
Removing it saves one tool schema slot in every browser-enabled API call.
Also fixes a latent bug: cleanup_browser() now handles Camofox sessions
too (previously only Browserbase). Camofox sessions were never auto-cleaned
per-task because they live in a separate dict from _active_sessions.
Files changed (13):
- tools/browser_tool.py: remove function, schema, registry entry; add
camofox cleanup to cleanup_browser()
- toolsets.py, model_tools.py, prompt_builder.py, display.py,
acp_adapter/tools.py: remove browser_close from all tool lists
- tests/: remove browser_close test, update toolset assertion
- docs/skills: remove all browser_close references
* fix: repeat browser_scroll 5x per call for meaningful page movement
Most backends scroll ~100px per call — barely visible on a typical
viewport. Repeating 5x gives ~500px (~half a viewport), making each
scroll tool call actually useful.
Backend-agnostic approach: works across all 7+ browser backends without
needing to configure each one's scroll amount individually. Breaks
early on error for the agent-browser path.
* feat: auto-return compact snapshot from browser_navigate
Every browser session starts with navigate → snapshot. Now navigate
returns the compact accessibility tree snapshot inline, saving one
tool call per browser task.
The snapshot captures the full page DOM (not viewport-limited), so
scroll position doesn't affect it. browser_snapshot remains available
for refreshing after interactions or getting full=true content.
Both Browserbase and Camofox paths auto-snapshot. If the snapshot
fails for any reason, navigation still succeeds — the snapshot is
a bonus, not a requirement.
Schema descriptions updated to guide models: navigate mentions it
returns a snapshot, snapshot mentions it's for refresh/full content.
* refactor: slim cronjob tool schema — consolidate model/provider, drop unused params
Session data (151 calls across 67 sessions) showed several schema
properties were never used by models. Consolidated and cleaned up:
Removed from schema (still work via backend/CLI):
- skill (singular): use skills array instead
- reason: pause-only, unnecessary
- include_disabled: now defaults to true
- base_url: extreme edge case, zero usage
- provider (standalone): merged into model object
Consolidated:
- model + provider → single 'model' object with {model, provider} fields.
If provider is omitted, the current main provider is pinned at creation
time so the job stays stable even if the user changes their default.
Kept:
- script: useful data collection feature
- skills array: standard interface for skill loading
Schema shrinks from 14 to 10 properties. All backend functionality
preserved — the Python function signature and handler lambda still
accept every parameter.
* fix: remove mixture_of_agents from core toolsets — opt-in only via hermes tools
MoA was in _HERMES_CORE_TOOLS and composite toolsets (hermes-cli,
hermes-messaging, safe), which meant it appeared in every session
for anyone with OPENROUTER_API_KEY set. The _DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS
gate only works after running 'hermes tools' explicitly.
Now MoA only appears when a user explicitly enables it via
'hermes tools'. The moa toolset definition and check_fn remain
unchanged — it just needs to be opted into.
* 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
Selectively cherry-picked from PR #5501 by MestreY0d4-Uninter.
- Add _resolve_workspace_hint() to detect parent's working directory
- Inject WORKSPACE PATH into child system prompts
- Add rule: never assume /workspace/ container paths
- Excludes the cli.py queue-busy-input changes from the original PR

- Share parent's credential pool with child agents for key rotation
- Leasing layer spreads parallel children across keys (least-loaded)
- Thread-safe acquire_lease/release_lease in CredentialPool
- Reverted sneaked-in tool-name restoration change (kept original
getattr + isinstance guard pattern)
Two fixes:
1. Replace all stale 'hermes login' references with 'hermes auth' across
auth.py, auxiliary_client.py, delegate_tool.py, config.py, run_agent.py,
and documentation. The 'hermes login' command was deprecated; 'hermes auth'
now handles OAuth credential management.
2. Fix credential removal not persisting for singleton-sourced credentials
(device_code for openai-codex/nous, hermes_pkce for anthropic).
auth_remove_command already cleared env vars for env-sourced credentials,
but singleton credentials stored in the auth store were re-seeded by
_seed_from_singletons() on the next load_pool() call. Now clears the
underlying auth store entry when removing singleton-sourced credentials.
* feat(tools): add Firecrawl cloud browser provider
Adds Firecrawl (https://firecrawl.dev) as a cloud browser provider
alongside Browserbase and Browser Use. All browser tools route through
Firecrawl's cloud browser via CDP when selected.
- tools/browser_providers/firecrawl.py — FirecrawlProvider
- tools/browser_tool.py — register in _PROVIDER_REGISTRY
- hermes_cli/tools_config.py — add to onboarding provider picker
- hermes_cli/setup.py — add to setup summary
- hermes_cli/config.py — add FIRECRAWL_BROWSER_TTL config
- website/docs/ — browser docs and env var reference
Based on #4490 by @developersdigest.

* refactor: simplify FirecrawlProvider.emergency_cleanup
Use self._headers() and self._api_url() instead of duplicating
env-var reads and header construction.
* fix: recognize Firecrawl in subscription browser detection
_resolve_browser_feature_state() now handles "firecrawl" as a direct
browser provider (same pattern as "browser-use"), so hermes setup
summary correctly shows "Browser Automation (Firecrawl)" instead of
misreporting as "Local browser".
Also fixes test_config_version_unchanged assertion (11 → 12).

When parent_agent.enabled_toolsets is None (the default, meaning all tools
are enabled), subagents incorrectly fell back to DEFAULT_TOOLSETS
(['terminal', 'file', 'web']) instead of inheriting the parent's full
toolset.
Root cause:
- Line 188 used 'or' fallback: None or DEFAULT_TOOLSETS evaluates to
DEFAULT_TOOLSETS
- Line 192 checked truthiness: None is falsy, falling through to else
Fix:
- Use 'is not None' checks instead of truthiness
- When enabled_toolsets is None, derive effective toolsets from
parent_agent.valid_tool_names via the tool registry
Fixes the bug introduced in f75b1d21b and repeated in e5d14445e (PR #3269).
Shell injection via unquoted workdir interpolation in docker, singularity,
and SSH backends. When workdir contained shell metacharacters (e.g.
~/;id), arbitrary commands could execute.
Changes:
- Add shlex.quote() at each interpolation point in docker.py,
singularity.py, and ssh.py with tilde-aware quoting (keep ~
unquoted for shell expansion, quote only the subpath)
- Add _validate_workdir() allowlist in terminal_tool.py as
defense-in-depth before workdir reaches any backend
Original work by Mariano A. Nicolini (PR #5620). Salvaged with fixes
for tilde expansion (shlex.quote breaks cd ~/path) and replaced
