Before: change code → build → run profile → manually compare to
mental model of last run. After: `--loop` watches ui-tui/src and
packages/hermes-ink/src for .ts(x) changes, rebuilds on change,
re-runs the same scenario, prints a side-by-side A/B diff against
the previous iteration — so each edit's impact is quantified
instantly. Ctrl+C to stop.
Also added:
--save LABEL saves metrics snapshot to /tmp/perf-<LABEL>.json
--compare LABEL diffs the current run vs that snapshot
--extra-flag X pass-through to node dist/entry.js (prepping for
--no-fullscreen below)
key_metrics() flattens a full run into scalar numbers across
frames, React commits, and per-phase timings. format_diff() prints
a table with ↑/↓ markers denoting regressions vs improvements based
on whether the metric is lower-is-better (p99, max, patches, drain)
or higher-is-better (fps, gaps_under_16ms).
Run-to-run noise on static code is ~5-15% on most metrics — big
signal (>30% change on renderer_p99 / fps) cuts through cleanly.
Useful both for validating a single fix and for detecting subtle
regressions during the wheel-accel port.
Usage during the next perf session:
# one-shot with a baseline for later comparison
scripts/profile-tui.py --seconds 6 --hold wheel_up --save pre-accel
# after porting the wheel handler
scripts/profile-tui.py --seconds 6 --hold wheel_up --compare pre-accel
# continuous iteration
scripts/profile-tui.py --seconds 6 --hold wheel_up --loop
Adds four fields to FrameEvent.phases and the matching profile
summary:
optimizedPatches post-optimize patch count (what's actually
written to stdout; the .patches field is
pre-optimize)
writeBytes UTF-8 byte count of the write this frame
backpressure true when Node's stdout.write returned false
(Writable buffer full — outer terminal can't
keep up)
prevFrameDrainMs end-to-end drain time of the PREVIOUS frame's
write, captured from stdout.write's 2-arg
callback. Reported on the next frame so the
measurement reflects "time until OS flushed
the bytes to the terminal fd", not "time until
queued in Node".
writeDiffToTerminal() now returns { bytes, backpressure } and
accepts an optional onDrain callback. Only attached on TTY with
diff; piped/non-TTY stdout bypasses flow control so the callback
would fire synchronously anyway.
Initial measurements under hold-wheel_up against 1106-msg session
(30Hz for 6s):
patches total 28,888
optimized total 16,700 (ratio 0.58 — optimizer cuts ~42%)
writeBytes 42 KB / 10s = 4.2 KB/s throughput
drainMs p50 0.14 ms terminal accepts bytes instantly
drainMs p99 0.85 ms
backpressure 0% of frames
This rules out the terminal-parse hypothesis — Cursor's xterm.js
drains our output in sub-millisecond time at only 4 KB/s. The
remaining lag has to be in the render pipeline, not the wire.
Profile output now includes the bytes+drain+backpressure lines to
keep this visible on every subsequent iteration.
Extends HERMES_DEV_PERF to capture the complete render pipeline, not
just React commits. Adds scripts/profile-tui.py to drive repeatable
hold-PageUp stress tests against a real long session.
perfPane.tsx:
Wires ink's onFrame callback (already plumbed through the fork) into
the same perf.log as the React.Profiler samples. Captures per-phase
timing (yoga calculateLayout, renderNodeToOutput, screen diff, patch
optimize, stdout write) plus yoga counters (visited/measured/cache-
Hits/live) and patch counts per frame. Events are tagged
{src: 'react'|'frame'} so jq can split them. logFrameEvent is
undefined when HERMES_DEV_PERF is unset, so ink doesn't even attach
the callback.
entry.tsx:
Passes logFrameEvent into render().
types/hermes-ink.d.ts:
Declares FrameEvent + onFrame on RenderOptions so the ui-tui side
type-checks against the plumbed-through ink option.
scripts/profile-tui.py:
New harness. Launches the built TUI under a PTY with the longest
session in state.db resumed, holds PageUp/PageDown/etc at a
configurable Hz for N seconds, then parses perf.log and prints
per-phase p50/p95/p99/max plus yoga-counter summaries. Zero deps
beyond stdlib. Exit 2 if nothing was captured (wiring broken).
Initial findings (1106-msg session, 6s PageUp hold at 30Hz):
- Steady state: 10 fps; renderer phase p99=63ms, write p99=0.2ms
- 4/107 heavy frames (>=16ms), all dominated by renderNodeToOutput
- One pathological 97ms frame with yoga measuring 70,415 text cells
and Yoga visiting 225k nodes — the cold-unmeasured-region hit
- Ink's scroll fast-path (DECSTBM blit from prevScreen) is
disqualified because our spacer-based virtual history doesn't
keep heightDelta in sync with scroll.delta, so every PageUp step
falls through to a full 2000-4800 patch re-render instead of ~40
* fix(install): add /usr/local/bin PATH guard for RHEL root non-login shells
The FHS-layout branch assumed /usr/local/bin is on PATH for every
standard shell. That holds for login shells (via /etc/profile's
pathmunge) but breaks on RHEL/CentOS/Rocky/Alma 8+ root in non-login
interactive shells (su, sudo -s, tmux panes, some web terminals) —
/etc/bashrc does not add /usr/local/bin and /root/.bash_profile
doesn't either. Result: hermes command links to /usr/local/bin/hermes
but the user has to type the absolute path each time.
Probe a fresh 'bash -i -c' (non-login interactive, matching the user
scenario) after symlinking. If hermes isn't resolvable, append an
idempotent PATH guard to /root/.bashrc and /root/.bash_profile, same
grep pattern already used by the ~/.local/bin branch below. No change
on distros where /usr/local/bin is already inherited.
* fix(update): repair RHEL root PATH on hermes update
Existing RHEL/CentOS/Rocky/Alma root installs won't be repaired by the
install.sh fix alone because 'hermes update' is an in-place git pull, not
a rerun of install.sh. Port the same probe + idempotent .bashrc write
into cmd_update so affected users get fixed automatically on next update.
_ensure_fhs_path_guard() runs after 'Update complete!':
- Linux + root + FHS-layout install (command at /usr/local/bin/hermes) only
- Probe: env -i bash -i -c 'command -v hermes' — fresh non-login interactive
shell, same scenario the user reports
- On failure, append PATH guard to /root/.bashrc and /root/.bash_profile,
skipping if any uncommented PATH line already mentions /usr/local/bin
- Silent no-op on macOS, non-root, legacy layout, or shells that already
resolve hermes
* fix(tui): call maybe_auto_title for TUI sessions (#15961)
The maybe_auto_title() helper is called from cli.py and gateway/run.py
but was never wired into tui_gateway/server.py, so every session started
via 'hermes --tui' landed in state.db with an empty title. Evidence from
the issue reporter: 0/154 TUI sessions titled vs 91/383 CLI.
Mirror the CLI/Gateway pattern: after emitting message.complete, when the
turn finished cleanly, fire-and-forget title generation using the session
key, user prompt, agent response, and current history.
Fixes#15949.

* fix(/branch): redirect session_log_file and expose branch sessions in list
Two bugs when using /branch:
1. cli.py _handle_branch_command updated agent.session_id but not
agent.session_log_file, so all messages written after branching
landed in the original session's JSON file and the branch never
got its own session_{id}.json on disk.
Fix: mirror the compression-split path (run_agent.py:7579) and
update session_log_file immediately after changing session_id.
2. hermes_state.py list_sessions_rich filtered out every session
with parent_session_id IS NOT NULL to hide sub-agent runs and
compression continuations. Branch sessions share this column, so
they became invisible to `hermes sessions list` and `sessions browse`.
Fix: also include branch children — those whose parent ended with
end_reason='branched' AND whose started_at >= parent.ended_at
(the same timing condition that get_compression_tip uses to
distinguish continuations from live-spawned subagents).
Fixes#14854

Salvage PR #15883 cherry-picked FocusFlow Dev's commit; release-notes
CI needs the AUTHOR_MAP entry to attribute to the PR author's GitHub
login rather than a placeholder.
OpenRouter and Nous Portal curated picker lists now resolve via a JSON
manifest served by the docs site, falling back to the in-repo snapshot
when unreachable. Lets us update model lists without shipping a release.
Live URL: https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/api/model-catalog.json
(source at website/static/api/model-catalog.json; auto-deploys via the
existing deploy-site.yml GitHub Pages pipeline on every merge to main).
Schema (v1) carries id + optional description + free-form metadata at
manifest, provider, and model levels. Pricing and context length stay
live-fetched via existing machinery (/v1/models endpoints, models.dev).
Config (new model_catalog section, default enabled):
model_catalog.url master manifest URL
model_catalog.ttl_hours disk cache TTL (default 24h)
model_catalog.providers.<name>.url optional per-provider override
Fetch pipeline: in-process cache -> disk cache (fresh < TTL) -> HTTP
fetch -> disk-cache-on-failure fallback -> in-repo snapshot as last
resort. Never raises to callers; at worst returns the bundled list.
Changes:
- website/static/api/model-catalog.json initial manifest (35 OR + 31 Nous)
- scripts/build_model_catalog.py regenerator from in-repo lists
- hermes_cli/model_catalog.py fetch + validate + cache module
- hermes_cli/models.py fetch_openrouter_models() +
new get_curated_nous_model_ids()
- hermes_cli/main.py, hermes_cli/auth.py Nous flows use the helper
- hermes_cli/config.py model_catalog defaults
- website/docs/reference/model-catalog.md + sidebars.ts
- tests/hermes_cli/test_model_catalog.py 21 tests (validation, fetch
success/failure, accessors,
disabled, overrides, integration)
- New website/docs/guides/azure-foundry.md covering both OpenAI-style
and Anthropic-style endpoints, auto-detection behaviour, gpt-5.x
routing, /v1 stripping, api-version query forwarding, and the
provider: anthropic + Azure URL alternative setup.
- environment-variables.md picks up AZURE_FOUNDRY_API_KEY,
AZURE_FOUNDRY_BASE_URL, AZURE_ANTHROPIC_KEY.
- cli-commands.md includes azure-foundry in the provider choices list.
- configuration.md lists azure-foundry among auxiliary-task providers.
- sidebars.ts wires the new guide into the Guides section.
- scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP entries for TechPrototyper,
HangGlidersRule (noreply), and pein892 so the contributor-attribution
CI check does not reject the salvage.
Root installs on Linux now put the code at /usr/local/lib/hermes-agent and
the hermes command at /usr/local/bin/hermes. HERMES_HOME (~/.hermes) stays
state-only. Matches Claude Code / Codex CLI / OpenClaw, keeps Docker
bind-mounted /root/ volumes lean, and puts the command on every shell's
default PATH without touching shell RC files.
- Non-root users and macOS root: unchanged
- Existing root installs at $HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent: preserved in-place
(detected via .git dir) — no auto-migration, no breakage
- Explicit --dir / $HERMES_INSTALL_DIR: always wins, never overridden
- Termux: unchanged (package manager manages /data/data/...)
Requested by @souly9999 (Discord). Our own Dockerfile already uses this
split (code at /opt/hermes, data at /opt/data volume); the user-install
path now matches.
Regression test for #14981. Verifies that _session_expiry_watcher fires
on_session_finalize for each session swept out of the store, matching
the contract documented for /new, /reset, CLI shutdown, and gateway stop.
Verified the test fails cleanly on pre-fix code (hook call list missing
sess-expired) and passes with the fix applied.
Follow-up on top of #15096 cherry-pick:
- Remove spotify_* from _HERMES_CORE_TOOLS (keep only in the 'spotify'
toolset, so the 9 Spotify tool schemas are not shipped to every user).
- Add 'spotify' to CONFIGURABLE_TOOLSETS + _DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS so new
installs get it opt-in via 'hermes tools', matching homeassistant/rl.
- Wire TOOL_CATEGORIES entry pointing at 'hermes auth spotify' for the
actual PKCE login (optional HERMES_SPOTIFY_CLIENT_ID /
HERMES_SPOTIFY_REDIRECT_URI env vars).
- scripts/release.py: map contributor email to GitHub login.
- AUTHOR_MAP entry for 130918800+devorun for #6636 attribution
- test_moa_defaults: was a change-detector tied to the exact frontier
model list — flips red every OpenRouter churn. Rewritten as an
invariant (non-empty, valid vendor/model slugs).
Plugin slash commands now surface as first-class commands in every gateway
enumerator — Discord native slash picker, Telegram BotCommand menu, Slack
/hermes subcommand map — without a separate per-platform plugin API.
The existing 'command:<name>' gateway hook gains a decision protocol via
HookRegistry.emit_collect(): handlers that return a dict with
{'decision': 'deny'|'handled'|'rewrite'|'allow'} can intercept slash
command dispatch before core handling runs, unifying what would otherwise
have been a parallel 'pre_gateway_command' hook surface.
Changes:
- gateway/hooks.py: add HookRegistry.emit_collect() that fires the same
handler set as emit() but collects non-None return values. Backward
compatible — fire-and-forget telemetry hooks still work via emit().
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: add optional 'args_hint' param to
register_command() so plugins can opt into argument-aware native UI
registration (Discord arg picker, future platforms).
- hermes_cli/commands.py: add _iter_plugin_command_entries() helper and
merge plugin commands into telegram_bot_commands() and
slack_subcommand_map(). New is_gateway_known_command() recognizes both
built-in and plugin commands so the gateway hook fires for either.
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: extract _build_auto_slash_command helper
from the COMMAND_REGISTRY auto-register loop and reuse it for
plugin-registered commands. Built-in name conflicts are skipped.
- gateway/run.py: before normal slash dispatch, call emit_collect on
command:<canonical> and honor deny/handled/rewrite/allow decisions.
Hook now fires for plugin commands too.
- scripts/release.py: AUTHOR_MAP entry for @Magaav.
- Tests: emit_collect semantics, plugin command surfacing per platform,
decision protocol (deny/handled/rewrite/allow + non-dict tolerance),
Discord plugin auto-registration + conflict skipping, is_gateway_known_command.
Salvaged from #14131 (@Magaav). Original PR added a parallel
'pre_gateway_command' hook and a platform-keyed plugin command
registry; this re-implementation reuses the existing 'command:<name>'
hook and treats plugin commands as platform-agnostic so the same
capability reaches Telegram and Slack without new API surface.

Add missing AUTHOR_MAP entry for taosiyuan163 whose truncation boundary
fix was adapted into _capture_log_snapshot().
Add regression tests proving: line-boundary truncation keeps the full
first line, mid-line truncation correctly drops the partial fragment.
Follow-up to the cherry-picked PR #13897 fix. Three issues found:
1. CRITICAL: The thinking block synthesised from reasoning_content was
immediately stripped by the third-party signature management code
(Kimi is classified as _is_third_party_anthropic_endpoint). Added a
Kimi-specific carve-out that preserves unsigned thinking blocks while
still stripping Anthropic-signed blocks Kimi can't validate.
2. Empty-string reasoning_content was silently dropped because the
truthiness check ('if reasoning_content and ...') evaluates to False
for ''. Changed to 'isinstance(reasoning_content, str)' so the
tier-3 fallback from _copy_reasoning_content_for_api (which injects
'' for Kimi tool-call messages with no reasoning) actually produces
a thinking block.
3. The thinking block was appended AFTER tool_use blocks. Anthropic
protocol requires thinking -> text -> tool_use ordering. Changed to
blocks.insert(0, ...) to prepend.
Follow-ups on top of salvaged #13923 (@keifergu):
- Print QR poll dot every 3s instead of every 18s so "Fetching
configuration results..." doesn't look hung.
- On "status=success but no bot_info" from the WeCom query endpoint,
log the full payload at WARNING and tell the user we're falling
back to manual entry (was previously a single opaque line).
- Document in the qr_scan_for_bot_info() docstring that the
work.weixin.qq.com/ai/qc/* endpoints are the admin-console web-UI
flow, not the public developer API, and may change without notice.
Also add keifergu@tencent.com to scripts/release.py AUTHOR_MAP so
release notes attribute the feature correctly.
- Wrap child.run_conversation() in a ThreadPoolExecutor with configurable
timeout (delegation.child_timeout_seconds, default 300s) to prevent
indefinite blocking when a subagent's API call or tool HTTP request hangs.
- Add heartbeat stale detection: if a child's api_call_count doesn't
advance for 5 consecutive heartbeat cycles (~2.5 min), stop touching
the parent's activity timestamp so the gateway inactivity timeout
can fire as a last resort.
- Add 'timeout' as a new exit_reason/status alongside the existing
completed/max_iterations/interrupted states.
- Use shutdown(wait=False) on the timeout executor to avoid the
ThreadPoolExecutor.__exit__ deadlock when a child is stuck on
blocking I/O.
