Allow custom OpenAI-compatible providers declared under `custom_providers:`
to set provider-specific `extra_body` fields and have Hermes merge them into
chat-completions requests when the matching custom endpoint is active.
This is a manual per-provider override rather than a model-name heuristic.
OpenAI-compatible Gemma thinking support is real, but the on-wire payload
shape is backend-specific: some servers want top-level `enable_thinking`,
while vLLM Gemma and NIM-style endpoints expect `chat_template_kwargs`.
A per-provider override is safer than picking one assumed payload.
Example config:
```yaml
custom_providers:
- name: gemma-local
base_url: http://localhost:8080/v1
model: google/gemma-4-31b-it
extra_body:
enable_thinking: true
reasoning_effort: high
```
For vLLM Gemma or NIM-style endpoints, use the nested shape those servers
expect:
```yaml
extra_body:
chat_template_kwargs:
enable_thinking: true
```
Changes:
- `hermes_cli/config.py`: preserve `extra_body` in normalized
`custom_providers:` entries and allow it in the validated field set.
- `hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py`: propagate custom-provider `extra_body`
as `request_overrides.extra_body` for named custom runtime resolution,
including credential-pool paths.
- `agent/agent_init.py`: at agent init, locate the matching custom-provider
entry by `base_url` (+ optional model) and merge its `extra_body` into
`AIAgent.request_overrides`, with caller-provided overrides winning on
conflicting top-level keys.
- `plugins/model-providers/custom/__init__.py`: keep existing CustomProfile
behavior (Ollama `num_ctx`, `think=False` when reasoning disabled);
user-configured `extra_body` flows through `request_overrides`.
- `website/docs/integrations/providers.md`: document the explicit
`extra_body` override and the vLLM/Gemma `chat_template_kwargs` variant.
- Tests cover config normalization, runtime propagation, model matching,
trailing-slash equivalence, fallback when no `model` field is set, and
caller-override merging precedence.
Verified end-to-end against `CustomProfile` via `ChatCompletionsTransport`:
configured `extra_body` reaches `kwargs.extra_body` on the wire request,
and coexists with profile-generated entries (Ollama `num_ctx`, `think=False`)
without clobber.
Salvaged from #29022 onto current `main`. Cosmetic typing edit in
`plugins/model-providers/custom/__init__.py` and a stale-base docs revert
in `providers.md` were dropped during cherry-pick.
Closes#29022
* ci(tests): install ripgrep from prebuilt tarball instead of apt
apt-get update + install of ripgrep takes ~4 min on the GHA Ubuntu
runners (the apt-get update against archive.ubuntu.com is the slow
part; ripgrep itself is small). Switching to the upstream musl
binary tarball cuts the step to a few seconds.
- Pinned to ripgrep 15.1.0 with sha256 verification (same hash as
published in the releases sha256 sidecar file).
- Drops the `rg` binary into /usr/local/bin so it is on PATH for
every subsequent step without GITHUB_PATH manipulation.
- Applied to both the test and e2e jobs in tests.yml.
* fix(cli): compile syntax check to tempdir, not source __pycache__
`_validate_critical_files_syntax` runs `py_compile.compile()` on each
critical bootstrap file after a successful `git pull`. The default
`py_compile` writes the resulting `.pyc` next to the source under
`__pycache__/`, which causes two real problems:
1. Parallel test workers walking the same source tree (e.g. running
the suite under per-file process isolation) can race against each
other on the `__pycache__` write — manifests as flaky 'directory
not empty' errors during teardown.
2. In production, the post-pull syntax check leaves a `.pyc` behind
that the next interpreter run might pick up — fine when the
interpreter version matches, sketchy if it doesn't.
Fix: write the compiled output to a `tempfile.TemporaryDirectory()`
that's discarded on function exit. We only care about the compile-or-not
signal, not the artifact.
* test(runner): per-file process isolation, drop manual state reset + xdist
Replace fragile manual _reset_module_state test fixtures with robust
per-file subprocess isolation. Each test file runs in a fresh
`python -m pytest <file>` subprocess via ThreadPoolExecutor. No xdist,
no custom pytest plugin, no shared worker state.
Key changes:
* scripts/run_tests_parallel.py — new runner: discovers test files,
runs N in parallel via ThreadPoolExecutor, captures stdout per file,
treats exit code 5 (no tests collected) as pass, kills all children
on exit. Change from cpu_count to cpu_count*2. The runner is
I/O-bound (waiting on subprocess.communicate() from pytest children)
The parent process does almost no CPU work, so 2x oversubscription
keeps more pipes full. When a file fails, immediately show the last
30 lines of pytest output (stack traces + FAILED summary) plus a
ready-to-copy repro command:
python -m pytest tests/agent/test_auxiliary_client.py
* scripts/run_tests.sh — delegates to run_tests_parallel.py
* .github/workflows/tests.yml — test step: python
scripts/run_tests_parallel.py
* pyproject.toml — drop pytest-xdist, pytest-split; simplify addopts
* tests/conftest.py — remove ~200 lines of manual state-reset fixtures
* AGENTS.md — update Testing section for per-file design
* test(runner): speed gateway test antipattern scan up
* fix(test): web search provider plugin test missing xai
* fix(tests): make 14 test files pass under per-file subprocess isolation
Tests that relied on cross-file state pollution from xdist workers
fail when run in isolation (per-file subprocess model). Root causes
and fixes:
Tool registry not populated:
- test_video_generation_tool_surface_matrix: add discover_builtin_tools()
- test_web_providers_brave_free/ddgs/searxng/general: autouse fixtures
registering all 8 bundled web providers, reset after each test
- test_website_policy: same provider registration pattern
- test_web_tools_tavily: same pattern across 3 dispatch test classes
- Also add is_safe_url/check_website_access mocks where SSRF check
blocks example.com (DNS resolution fails in isolated envs)
Stale check_fn cache:
- test_kanban_tools: invalidate_check_fn_cache() + _clear_tool_defs_cache()
in both kanban guidance tests (prior test cached False for kanban_show)
- test_discord_tool: cache invalidation in setup/teardown
- test_homeassistant_tool: invalidate_check_fn_cache() before registry queries
Module-level state pollution:
- test_auxiliary_client: autouse fixture clearing _aux_unhealthy_until cache
- test_skill_commands: set_session_vars() instead of patch.dict(os.environ)
(ContextVar takes precedence over os.environ)
- test_dm_topics: overwrite sys.modules + separate telegram.constants mock
+ force-reimport of gateway.platforms.telegram
- test_terminal_tool_requirements: removed duplicate class declaration,
autouse _clear_caches fixture
* change(tests): run_tests.sh explicitly includes env vars
instead of manually dropping some vars, now we just only include some
* fix(tests): 5 more isolation/NixOS fixes
- test_approval_plugin_hooks: isolate HERMES_HOME so real user's
command_allowlist doesn't short-circuit the approval path
- test_google_chat: skipif when Platform.GOOGLE_CHAT not in enum
(feature not merged on this branch)
- test_write_deny: test systemd prefix against tmp_path instead of
/etc/systemd which resolves to /nix/store on NixOS
- test_pty_bridge: use shutil.which('cat') instead of /bin/cat
(doesn't exist on NixOS)
- profiles.py: rmtree onexc handler chmod's parent dirs too, fixing
profile deletion when copytree preserved read-only modes from
nix store
* fix(tests): clear unhealthy cache in autouse fixture for auxiliary_client
* fix(tests): skip send_message when telegram not installed; handle missing worker_id in browser_supervisor
* fix: py3.11 rmtree onexc compat + belt-and-suspenders unhealthy cache clear for expired codex test
* fix: address PR #29016 review feedback
- Remove tracked .pytest-cache/ artifact and add to .gitignore
- Fix stale 'xdist worker' comment in conftest.py
- Deduplicate web provider registration into tests/tools/conftest.py
shared helper (register_all_web_providers), replacing 8 copy-pasted
blocks across 6 test files
- Update PR description: remove stale recovered-test-files claim,
fix worker count to match code (cpu_count*2)
* fix: eliminate race in stale-cache achievements test
The background scan thread could complete and overwrite _SNAPSHOT_CACHE
before evaluate_all() returned the stale data — only 10 fake sessions
made the scan finish instantly. Added scan_delay param to _FakeSessionDB
and set it to 2s in the stale-cache test so the background thread can't
win the race.
Five call sites do os.chmod(path.parent, 0o700) without checking that
the parent resolves to a safe directory. If HERMES_HOME or another
path env var resolves to /, the chmod strips traversal permission from
the root inode and bricks the entire host.
Add secure_parent_dir() to hermes_constants.py that refuses to chmod
/ or any top-level directory (depth < 2). Replace all 5 call sites
with this helper.
Fixes#25821
After #28660's host-gating fix, users with provider=custom and base_url
pointed at a commercial endpoint (DeepSeek, Groq, Mistral, …) hit
no-key-required even when they had the vendor-named env var set
(DEEPSEEK_API_KEY, GROQ_API_KEY, …). The issue author flagged this as
'what users intuitively expect'.
Adds _host_derived_api_key() to derive an env var name from the base URL
host using the *registrable* label (second-to-last). Appended to all three
api_key_candidates chains (_resolve_named_custom_runtime direct-alias path,
named-custom path, _resolve_openrouter_runtime non-openrouter branch).
Lookalike resistance: api.deepseek.com.attacker.test resolves to vendor
label 'attacker', NOT 'deepseek' — DEEPSEEK_API_KEY stays put. IPs and
loopback yield no vendor label. Already-handled vendors (OPENAI/OPENROUTER/
OLLAMA) are filtered to prevent bypass of the explicit host-gated paths.
Adds 6 tests covering positive paths (DeepSeek, Groq), the lookalike attack,
loopback rejection, the already-handled-vendor filter, and direct helper
unit tests.
Also adds erhnysr to AUTHOR_MAP.
- Preserve OPENROUTER_API_KEY for explicit mirror/proxy configs when
requested provider is openrouter and OPENROUTER_BASE_URL is set
- Gate OPENAI_API_KEY and OPENROUTER_API_KEY in named custom provider
path (_resolve_named_custom_runtime) on authoritative hosts
- Gate same keys in direct-alias path
- Update tests to reflect secure-by-default behavior for local endpoints
Custom endpoint provider was forwarding OPENAI_API_KEY and OLLAMA_API_KEY
to arbitrary hosts. Keys should only be sent to their authoritative domains
(openai.com, ollama.com) or when explicitly configured via pool/env.
- Gate OPENAI_API_KEY to openai.com hosts only
- Gate OLLAMA_API_KEY to ollama.com hosts only
- Return 'no-key-required' for unrecognized custom endpoints
- Update tests to reflect secure-by-default behavior

browse_skills() is the TUI gateway's API for the web UI skills browser
(tui_gateway/server.py:6574). It had the same dedup-by-name bug as
do_browse() and unified_search() fixed in the parent commit: r.name is
not unique for browse-sh skills (Airbnb, Booking.com, Zillow all publish
"search-listings"), so the dedup loop silently dropped all but the first
skill with each task name.
Switch to r.identifier, which is always globally unique.
Add a regression test asserting that two browse-sh skills with the same
name but different hostnames both appear in the browse_skills() result.
Browse.sh exposes skills by task name (e.g. "search-listings"), which is
shared across hundreds of sites. Deduplicating by name silently dropped
every browse-sh skill after the first one with a given task name — e.g.
only Airbnb's "search-listings" would survive, collapsing Booking.com,
Zillow, and every other site's variant into nothing.
Switch unified_search() and do_browse() to use r.identifier as the dedup
key. identifier is always globally unique (e.g.
"browse-sh/airbnb.com/search-listings-ddgioa"), so same-named skills from
different browse-sh hostnames are preserved as distinct results.
Update existing TestUnifiedSearchDedup tests to model the real scenario
(same identifier appearing from two sources) and add a regression test
that asserts browse-sh skills with the same name but different hostnames
are never collapsed.
PR #29182 deleted the per-session JSON snapshot writer outright because
state.db is canonical and the snapshots had no in-tree consumer. Some
users have external tooling that reads `~/.hermes/sessions/session_{sid}.json`
directly, so reintroduce the writer behind a config flag that defaults
to off.
- Add `sessions.write_json_snapshots` (default False) to DEFAULT_CONFIG
- Restore `AIAgent._save_session_log` + `_clean_session_content` as
gated methods. When the flag is off the call is a fast no-op; when
on, the writer behaves as before (atomic write, truncation guard
preserved, REASONING_SCRATCHPAD → think tag normalization)
- Re-derive the target path from `agent.session_id` on each call so
`/branch` and `/compress` re-points happen automatically — no need
to restore the explicit re-point bookkeeping at call sites
- Wire the single call site in `_persist_session` (the cleanup-on-exit
hook). Did NOT restore the 7 intra-turn calls the original PR deleted
— those were redundant writes within the same turn that doubled disk
I/O without adding any persistence guarantee `_persist_session` does
not already provide
- Read the flag once at agent init via `load_config()`, cache as
`agent._session_json_enabled`
- Update `TestNoSessionJsonSnapshot` → `TestSessionJsonSnapshotOptIn`
to pin behavior: default off (no file), opt-in true (file written),
no-op method on default agents, logs_dir retained unconditionally
- Update CONTRIBUTING.md and the bundled `hermes-agent` skill to
document the flag and its default
Adds a new `migrate` top-level sub-command that delegates to
`migrate xai` for now. xAI handler:
- Default: dry-run. Lists every retired xAI model reference
found in config.yaml, with the recommended replacement and
reasoning_effort hint, and points to the official xAI
migration guide.
- --apply: rewrites config.yaml in-place (via the ruamel
round-trip apply_migration helper from hermes_cli.xai_retirement).
A timestamped backup is created automatically.
- --no-backup: skips the backup when applying (opt-in only —
the safe default keeps a copy).
Together with the doctor + chat-startup warnings already in
this stack, this gives users three escalating signals before
the May 15, 2026 retirement date: green check / warning at
chat startup / actionable migration command.
Extends hermes_cli.xai_retirement with apply_migration(config_path,
issues, backup=True), used by the upcoming `hermes migrate xai`
sub-command.
Uses ruamel.yaml round-trip mode so that comments, key order,
indentation, quoting style, and scalar types are preserved on
rewrite — config.yaml is treated as a user-edited file, not a
data dump.
Behavior:
- Each issue rewrites parent[leaf] to issue.replacement
- When issue.reasoning_effort is set (non-reasoning variants
that map to grok-4.3), a sibling reasoning_effort key is
added/updated alongside the model
- Empty issues list or missing slots are no-ops (no backup,
no rewrite)
- When changes occur, a timestamped backup
(.bak-pre-migrate-xai-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS) is written first
unless backup=False
17 unit tests cover dry-run/no-op, surgical replacement (each
slot), comment + key-order preservation, backup creation, and
idempotence (apply twice → no-op the second time).
Print a non-blocking stderr warning at the top of cmd_chat when the
active config still references xAI models scheduled for retirement
on May 15, 2026. Each line includes the config path, the recommended
replacement, and the reasoning_effort to set for non-reasoning
variants. Points to hermes doctor for full diagnostic.
Wrapped in try/except — never blocks startup. After May 15 the
upstream xAI API will return a clear error anyway; this is purely a
heads-up to give users time to migrate before that happens.
Add a new section in run_doctor that lists retired xAI model
references found in the active config and points the user at the
official xAI migration guide.
Each retired reference shows its config path (principal.model,
auxiliary.<slot>.model, delegation.model, tts.xai.model, or
plugins.image_gen.xai.model), the recommended replacement, and
whether reasoning_effort needs to be set (for non-reasoning variants
that map to grok-4.3 + reasoning_effort=none).
Findings are appended to manual_issues so the final doctor summary
reminds the user to update their config.yaml manually (no automatic
YAML rewriting in this PR — preserves comments, key order, types).
Wrapped in try/except so doctor still completes if load_config or
the retirement module raise unexpectedly.
Add hermes_cli.xai_retirement module that walks a Hermes config and
flags references to models being retired by xAI on May 15, 2026 per
the official migration guide.
Pure logic + dataclass, no I/O — testable in isolation and reusable
from a future hermes migrate xai sub-command.
Mappings (per https://docs.x.ai/developers/migration/may-15-retirement):

When a worker calls ``kanban_block(reason="review-required: ...")`` to
hand a task off for human review, the dispatcher's ``recompute_ready``
was treating the resulting ``blocked`` status as eligible for
auto-promotion — exactly the same as a circuit-breaker block. On the
next tick the task flipped back to ``ready``, a fresh worker spawned,
found nothing to do (work already applied, review-required comment
already posted), exited cleanly, got recorded as ``protocol_violation``
→ ``gave_up`` → ``blocked``, and the dispatcher promoted again.
Infinite loop until manual ``hermes kanban reclaim`` + ``kanban block``.
Add ``_has_sticky_block`` which distinguishes the two block sources
using the cheapest available signal: the most recent
``"blocked"``/``"unblocked"`` event in ``task_events``.
* Worker / operator ``kanban_block`` emits ``"blocked"`` →
``_has_sticky_block`` returns True → ``recompute_ready`` skips the
task entirely. ``unblock_task`` emits ``"unblocked"`` which flips
the predicate back, so the only legitimate exit is the documented
human-in-the-loop path.
* Circuit-breaker ``_record_task_failure`` emits ``"gave_up"`` (not
``"blocked"``) → predicate stays False → original
parent-completion-recovery semantics from #40c1decb3 are preserved.
* Tasks blocked purely by direct DB manipulation also recover, since
they have no ``"blocked"`` event row at all — matches the existing
``test_recompute_ready_promotes_blocked_with_done_parents`` fixture
behaviour.
XAI_BASE_URL / HERMES_XAI_BASE_URL let users repoint the OAuth-authenticated
inference endpoint, but the env override was an unguarded credential-leak
vector: a tampered .env or hostile shell init setting
XAI_BASE_URL=https://attacker.example/v1 would silently ship the SuperGrok
OAuth bearer to a third party on every request.
Add _xai_validate_inference_base_url() that pins the host to x.ai or a
*.x.ai subdomain and rejects non-HTTPS. On rejection, fall back to the
default with a warning rather than raise — a bad env var should not
deadlock auth, but should never leak the bearer either.
Apply at all three sites that read the env override for xai-oauth:
- hermes_cli/auth.py resolve_xai_oauth_runtime_credentials (main path)
- hermes_cli/auth.py _xai_oauth_loopback_login (initial login)
- agent/auxiliary_client.py _resolve_xai_oauth_for_aux (aux client)
E2E validated against four scenarios: attacker.example, lookalike
api.x.ai.evil.com, http:// downgrade on api.x.ai, and legit custom.x.ai
subdomain (which still resolves correctly).
Discovered while comparing against the opencode-grok-auth plugin
(github.com/ysnock404/opencode-grok-auth), which highlighted the same
guard on the OpenCode side.
* perf(config): add load_config_readonly() fast path for hot agent loop
`load_config()` is called from the agent loop's per-API-call hot path via
`get_provider_request_timeout()` and `get_provider_stale_timeout()` —
both invoked once per turn from `_resolved_api_call_timeout()` in
run_agent.py.
Profiling a synthetic 20-tool-call agent run revealed:
- 21 invocations of `load_config()` cumulating 56ms (~17% of agent loop)
- 34,398 deepcopy calls totaling 37ms (config defensive deepcopy + chain)
- 8,652 `_expand_env_vars` invocations (~412 per turn)
Microbench (cache-hit, real config.yaml present):
load_config() 265us/call (125us deepcopy + 140us infra)
load_config_readonly() 138us/call (~48% faster)
`load_config_readonly()` returns the cached dict directly without the
defensive deepcopy. Documented contract: caller must not mutate. Returns
plain dict (not MappingProxyType) so downstream `isinstance(x, dict)`
guards keep working — caught during initial implementation when
MappingProxyType broke get_provider_request_timeout's guard logic.
Wired into hermes_cli/timeouts.py (the two functions called per agent
turn). load_config() is unchanged for the 263 other call sites that
mutate the result before save_config(), are not in the hot path, or
where the safety guarantee matters more than the perf.

* perf(redact): substring pre-screens skip non-matching regex chains
Every log record passes through `RedactingFormatter.format` which calls
`redact_sensitive_text`, which historically ran ALL 13 secret-pattern
regexes against every line — including DB connection strings, JWTs,
Discord mentions, Signal phone numbers, etc. — even for typical clean
log records like 'INFO run_agent: API call completed'.
Add cheap substring pre-checks before each regex pass. False positives
still run the regex (which then matches nothing); false negatives are
impossible because every pattern requires the gated substring to match
its leading anchor:
- `_PREFIX_RE` gated on any of 33 known credential prefix substrings
- `_ENV_ASSIGN_RE` gated on `=` in text
- `_JSON_FIELD_RE` gated on `:` and `"` in text
- `_AUTH_HEADER_RE` gated on `uthorization`/`UTHORIZATION` in text
- `_TELEGRAM_RE` gated on `:` in text
- `_PRIVATE_KEY_RE` gated on `BEGIN` and `-----`
- `_DB_CONNSTR_RE` gated on `://` in text
- `_JWT_RE` gated on `eyJ` in text
- URL userinfo/query gated on `://`
- `_redact_form_body` gated on `&` and `=`
- `_DISCORD_MENTION_RE` gated on `<@`
- `_SIGNAL_PHONE_RE` gated on `+`
Microbench (5 typical log records, 20k iterations each):
BEFORE AFTER delta
redact_sensitive_text per call 5.63us 1.79us -68%
Real-world impact: ~244 log records emitted in a 30-turn agent loop, so
the chain saves ~1ms of CPU per conversation. Bigger win is the
reduction in regex execution and GC pressure during heavy logging
sessions (verbose logging, gateway message processing).
Security regression test: 30 secret-containing inputs (sk-/ghp_/JWT/DB
connstr/Auth-Bearer/private key/URL userinfo/Discord/Signal/etc.)
verified to produce identical redacted output before/after. All 75
existing tests/agent/test_redact.py cases pass.
The `?access_token=foo&code=bar` (bare query string, no scheme) case
that 'leaks' is pre-existing behavior — the URL query redaction
requires a well-formed URL with scheme+host. Not a regression.
* perf(run_agent): cache _needs_thinking_reasoning_pad result per (provider, model, base_url)
Profile of a 31-turn synthetic agent run shows `_needs_thinking_reasoning_pad`
fires 495 times (~16 per turn) and each call ran 3 helper methods, each
hitting `base_url_host_matches` 1-4 times via `urlparse`. Total cost:
3,342 base_url_host_matches calls + 3,373 urlparse calls accounting for
~36ms of agent-loop overhead (~7% of the entire post-network work).
Provider / model / base_url don't change during a conversation except via
`switch_model` and fallback activation — both of which already overwrite
those attributes atomically. Cache the result on a tuple key; since the
key is derived from the very fields that would change, the cache
auto-invalidates on the next read after a switch. No manual invalidation
needed in switch_model / _try_activate_fallback.
Profile A/B (31-turn cached-config agent run):

_copy_reasoning_content_for_api cum 17ms 1ms -94%

When config.yaml has provider: ollama (or vllm/llamacpp/llama-cpp) with a
non-loopback base_url, auth.py's resolve_provider() correctly normalises
the alias to 'custom' at the top level, but two sites in runtime_provider.py
were still comparing the *original* string against the literal 'custom':
- _config_base_url_trustworthy_for_bare_custom() rejected non-loopback
URLs because cfg_provider_norm was 'ollama', not 'custom'.
- _resolve_openrouter_runtime() only entered the trust branch when
requested_norm == 'custom'.
Both sites now consult resolve_provider() and treat any alias that
resolves to 'custom' identically. Result: provider: ollama + LAN IP no
longer silently falls through to OpenRouter (HTTP 401), matching the
behaviour of provider: custom with the same base_url.
E2E verified across 6 cases (ollama/vllm/llamacpp/custom + LAN; ollama +
loopback; openrouter + cloud) — all route to the configured endpoint;
'frobnicate' + LAN still rejects with AuthError as before.

Add Windows gateway regression coverage and systemd setup tests for the shared install flow.
* fix(update): detect concurrent hermes.exe on Windows; retry + restart-defer quarantine
Closes#26670.
When 'hermes update' runs on Windows with another hermes.exe alive (most
commonly the Hermes Desktop Electron app's spawned backend) _quarantine_running_hermes_exe()
fails to rename the venv shim with [WinError 32]. uv pip install -e .
then exits 2, the git-pull fast path is silently abandoned, and the ZIP
fallback runs (and fails the same way) before eventually succeeding.
This change implements three of the five proposed fixes from the issue:
1. Concurrent-instance detection (preferred fix). _detect_concurrent_hermes_instances()
uses psutil to enumerate processes whose .exe is one of our venv shims
(hermes.exe / hermes-gateway.exe), excluding the caller's PID. When any
match exists, cmd_update prints an actionable message naming the
blocking PIDs and exits 2 BEFORE any destructive work. New --force flag
bypasses the gate.
2. Retry + restart-deferred fallback. _quarantine_running_hermes_exe()
now retries the rename up to 4 times with 100/250/500/1000 ms backoff
(covers the transient AV-scanner-handle case). If all retries fail,
it schedules the replacement via MoveFileExW with the OS deferred-rename
flag so the new shim can land at the original path and the update
completes; the old image is fully unloaded after the user's next
system restart.
3. Actionable warning text. The old 'Could not quarantine: [WinError 32]'
warning is replaced with one that names the likely culprits (Hermes
Desktop, REPLs, gateway, AV) and points to the new --force flag.
Tests:
- 13 new tests in tests/hermes_cli/test_update_concurrent_quarantine.py
covering: psutil-based enumeration, self-pid exclusion, case-insensitive
matching of .EXE, no-psutil graceful degradation, off-Windows no-op,
helpful warning formatting, retry-then-succeed, restart-deferred fallback,
cmd_update abort + exit code 2, and --force bypass.
- New autouse fixture in tests/hermes_cli/conftest.py defaults
_detect_concurrent_hermes_instances to [] so the rest of the suite
isn't tripped by the developer's own running hermes.exe. Opt-out marker
'real_concurrent_gate' registered in pyproject.toml.
- Updating docs page (website/docs/getting-started/updating.md) gains a
short section explaining the new Windows error and remediation.
* chore: refresh uv.lock to match pyproject.toml exact pins
aiohttp 3.13.4 -> 3.13.3 (matches pyproject pin: aiohttp==3.13.3)
anthropic 0.87.0 -> 0.86.0 (matches pyproject pin: anthropic==0.86.0)
hermes-agent 0.13.0 -> 0.14.0 (matches pyproject version)
CI's uv lock --check was failing on the merged state because main
drifted: pyproject.toml uses exact == pins for those two deps and the
hermes-agent version was bumped to 0.14.0 but the lockfile still had
0.13.0.
Extends the previous commit to cover the remaining additive-column index
that sits on the same migration trap:
- ``task_events.run_id`` -> ``idx_events_run`` was still in SCHEMA_SQL.
A legacy ``task_events`` table predating #17805 (no ``run_id``) would
still abort ``executescript`` before ``_migrate_add_optional_columns``
could add the column. Hoisted out of SCHEMA_SQL and made unconditional
in the migration alongside the other three indexes.
- Removed the now-redundant ``CREATE INDEX idx_tasks_idempotency`` that
was nested inside the ``if "idempotency_key" not in cols`` branch.
The unconditional create lower in the function makes it idempotent
on both fresh and legacy DBs.
- Strengthened the regression test to cover all four indexes
(``idx_tasks_session_id``, ``idx_tasks_tenant``, ``idx_tasks_idempotency``,
``idx_events_run``) and to seed a pre-#17805 ``task_events`` shape that
exercises the ``run_id`` migration path.
The result: every ``CREATE INDEX`` that depends on an additive column now
runs after the migration ensures the column exists. Verified against a
realistic pre-#16081 board fixture (tasks + task_events both legacy
shape) — origin/main reproduces ``no such column: session_id``; this
branch migrates cleanly and creates all four indexes.
Follow-up to #28455. The respawn guard's blocker_auth rule (last error
matched a quota/auth/429 pattern) was auto-blocking the task on first
occurrence. That's too aggressive: transient rate limits typically
clear in seconds to minutes, but the auto-block puts the task in
'blocked' status which requires manual unblock.
Now treats blocker_auth the same as recent_success and active_pr:
defer the spawn this tick, leave the task in 'ready', let the next
tick try again. If the auth error genuinely persists, the existing
consecutive_failures counter trips the auto-block circuit breaker
after failure_limit failures via the normal path — so a persistent
401/403/quota-exhausted still ends up blocked, just not on first hit.
Also documents the respawn_guarded event in kanban.md's events table
with the three guard reasons.
Updated test_dispatch_respawn_guard_auto_blocks_auth_error → renamed
to test_dispatch_respawn_guard_defers_auth_error_without_auto_block;
asserts task stays in 'ready' and the guard reason is recorded.
Follow-up to #28452. detect_stale_running() was calling
_record_task_failure() on every reclaim, which ticked the
consecutive_failures counter. With the default failure_limit=2,
two legitimately long-running tasks (>4 h without explicit
heartbeat) would auto-block via the spawn-failure circuit
breaker — even though no worker actually failed.
Stale reclaim is dispatcher-side absence-of-heartbeat detection,
not a worker fault. Removed the _record_task_failure() call;
the 'stale' event in task_events is still the audit surface,
but the failure counter is now reserved for spawn_failed /
timed_out / crashed (real failures).
Also documents the heartbeat requirement:
- KANBAN_GUIDANCE in agent/prompt_builder.py now states the
rule ('call kanban_heartbeat at least once an hour for tasks
running longer than 1 hour') so workers learn the contract.
- kanban.md adds the stale event row to the events table and
flags the heartbeat requirement in the worker lifecycle list.
New regression test: test_detect_stale_does_not_tick_failure_counter
locks in the new behaviour.
Catch the PR #28452 failure mode (orphan merge-conflict markers in
hermes_cli/config.py) on the user side: after git pull succeeds, compile
the files every 'hermes' invocation imports at startup. If any has a
syntax error, git reset --hard back to the pre-pull SHA so the install
stays bootable. User can retry once a fix lands upstream.
- New _capture_head_sha() + _validate_critical_files_syntax() helpers
- Wires both into _cmd_update_impl after the pull/reset succeeds
- Tests cover the helpers, the rollback flow, and a production-tree
invariant (CI fails if main itself has a syntax error in a critical
file — catches future broken commits before users hit them)
`hermes doctor` printed 'codex CLI not installed (optional — ...)' as a
generic info line at the bottom of the auth section, several rows below
'OpenAI Codex auth (not logged in)' and after MiniMax/Gemini auth checks.
Users reading sequentially mistook it for MiniMax-related advice.
Move the hint up under the Codex auth warning so it's adjacent to the
row it actually pertains to. Behavior unchanged when the codex CLI is
installed (success path keeps its 'codex CLI ✓' row at the bottom).
Tests cover both placement and suppression cases.
Salvage of @xxxigm's 3-commit stack (#27986).
Closes#27975.
1. trajectory_compressor.py: yaml.safe_load() returns None on empty
files, crashing with TypeError on `if 'tokenizer' in data`. Fix by
adding `or {}` fallback. (HIGH — blocks startup with empty config)
2. 6 files with fcntl.flock(LOCK_UN) in finally blocks without
try/except: cron/scheduler.py, hermes_cli/auth.py,
agent/shell_hooks.py, tools/skill_usage.py,
tools/environments/file_sync.py, tools/memory_tool.py. If unlock
raises OSError, fd.close() is skipped and the lock is held forever.
The msvcrt branches already had try/except; the fcntl branches did
not. Fix by wrapping in try/except (OSError, IOError): pass.
3. agent/copilot_acp_client.py line 639: TOCTOU race — path.exists()
followed by path.read_text() with no try/except. If file is deleted
between the check and the read, FileNotFoundError propagates. Fix
by using try/except FileNotFoundError.
4. gateway/sticker_cache.py: non-atomic write via Path.write_text()
can leave truncated JSON on crash, causing JSONDecodeError on next
load. Fix by writing to tempfile + fsync + os.replace (atomic).
HERMES_TUI_RESUME is an internal env var the Python wrapper exports to hand
a session ID off to the Ink TUI. Because _launch_tui started from
os.environ.copy(), any exported/stale value in the user's shell leaked
through — so plain `hermes --tui` would try to resume a missing session
and leave the UI at 'error: session not found' with no live session.
Drop HERMES_TUI_RESUME from the env before conditionally re-setting it
from the argparse-resolved resume_session_id. Tests cover both the drop
path and the set-from-arg path.
Salvage of #28080 by @noctilust.
Salvages #28125 by @Jpalmer95. Adds:
- Drag-to-delete trash zone in the kanban dashboard
- Bulk delete endpoint with cascading delete_task cleanup
- Frontend updates (drag visual + drop handler)
- Confirmation prompt before delete
Resolved end-of-file test conflict by appending both halves.
Salvages #24533 by @roycepersonalassistant. Adds a first-class
'scheduled' Kanban status for time-delay follow-ups that aren't
waiting on human input.
- hermes kanban schedule <task_id> [reason] CLI command
- Dashboard/API transitions to/from Scheduled
- unblock_task() now releases both 'blocked' AND 'scheduled' tasks
(re-checking parent dependencies before moving to ready/todo)
- i18n + docs updates
Resolved conflicts: kept HEAD's failure-counter reset on unblock
alongside the PR's scheduled state, kept HEAD's 'running' direct-set
rejection, combined both bulk-status branches. Dropped the dist/
bundle changes (months-stale; would need rebuild from source).
Skill bundles are tiny YAML files in ~/.hermes/skill-bundles/ that
group several skills under one slash command. Invoking /<bundle-name>
from any surface (CLI, TUI, dashboard, any gateway platform) loads
every referenced skill into a single combined user message.
Use cases:
- /backend-dev → loads github-code-review + test-driven-development
+ github-pr-workflow as one bundle.
- /research → loads several research skills together.
- Team task profiles shared via dotfiles.
Behavior:
- Bundles take precedence over individual skills when slugs collide.
- Missing skills are skipped with a note, not fatal.
- No system-prompt mutation — bundles generate a fresh user message
at invocation time, the same way /<skill> does. Prompt cache stays
intact.
- Works in CLI dispatch, gateway dispatch, autocomplete (CLI + TUI),
/help display.
Schema (~/.hermes/skill-bundles/<slug>.yaml):
name: backend-dev
description: Backend feature work.
skills:
- github-code-review
- test-driven-development
instruction: |
Optional extra guidance prepended to the loaded skills.
New module: agent/skill_bundles.py — load, scan, resolve, build
invocation message, save, delete. yaml.safe_load only; broken
bundles log a warning and are skipped, never raise.
New CLI subcommand: hermes bundles {list,show,create,delete,reload}.
Implementation in hermes_cli/bundles.py; wired in hermes_cli/main.py.
'bundles' added to _BUILTIN_SUBCOMMANDS so plugin discovery skips it.
New in-session slash command: /bundles lists installed bundles in
both CLI and gateway. /<bundle-name> dispatch added to CLI (cli.py)
and gateway (gateway/run.py) before the existing /<skill-name> path.
Autocomplete: SlashCommandCompleter gained an optional
skill_bundles_provider parameter that defaults to None — the prompt
shows '▣ <description> (N skills)' for bundles vs '⚡' for skills.
Tests:
- tests/agent/test_skill_bundles.py — 33 tests covering slugify,
scan/cache freshness, resolve (including underscore→hyphen
Telegram alias), build_bundle_invocation_message (loading, missing
skills, user/bundle instruction injection, dedup), save/delete,
reload diff, list sort.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_bundles.py — 8 tests for the CLI
subcommand (create/list/show/delete/reload, --force, missing
bundle errors).
- tests/gateway/test_bundles_command.py — 4 tests for the gateway
handler and bundle resolution priority.
Live E2E: verified subprocess invocations of hermes bundles
{list,create,show,reload,delete} round-trip correctly against an
isolated HERMES_HOME.
Docs:
- website/docs/user-guide/features/skills.md — new 'Skill Bundles'
section with quick example, YAML schema, management commands,
behavior notes.
- website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md — 'hermes bundles' added to
the top-level command table and given its own subcommand section.
Salvages #26496 by @aqilaziz. Adds branch_name column + CLI flag so
tasks with workspace_kind='worktree' can pin a target branch on
create. Schema migration added to _migrate_add_optional_columns.
- Task.branch_name field + DB column + migration
- create_task accepts branch_name kwarg
- hermes kanban create --branch <name> flag
- kanban show output includes 'Branch: <name>' when set
Cherry-picked the substantive commit (a7558cf27); the PR's tip was
an unrelated service-path-dirs commit. Resolved 2 INSERT-column-list
and show-output conflicts alongside main's session_id and
max_runtime_seconds additions; kept all three.
PR #28454 (salvage of #26745, workflow filter) merged with leftover
git conflict markers in hermes_cli/kanban.py at three sites:
- _task_to_dict() (session_id alongside workflow_template_id/current_step_key)
- p_list parser (--sort alongside --workflow-template-id/--step-key)
- _cmd_list (order_by alongside the new filter kwargs)
Cleans up the markers and keeps both halves at each site.
Resolves a self-introduced regression.
PR #28452 (salvage of #23790, stale detection) merged with leftover
git conflict markers in hermes_cli/config.py around the
`dispatch_stale_timeout_seconds` config block, breaking config import
and any code path that loads it. Cleans up the markers and keeps both
config blocks (worker log rotation/orchestrator + stale detection).
Resolves a self-introduced regression.
Salvages #27568 by @SerenityTn. Dashboard cron page now lists cron
jobs from all profiles, with profile-aware filter UI and storage
routing. Includes test coverage for cross-profile listing, mutation,
deletion, and validation.
Also fixes orphan conflict markers in config.py left by an earlier
salvage merge (kanban.dispatch_stale_timeout_seconds was double-nested
in HEAD/PR markers from #28452 salvage of #23790).
Salvages #27484 by @fardoche6. Adds a respawn guard that skips worker
spawn for tasks where:
- a recent run already succeeded (recent_success — within guard window)
- the previous run hit a quota/auth error (blocker_auth, also auto-blocks)
- a recent task comment includes a GitHub PR URL (active_pr)
The guard prevents repeat worker storms on the same bug/task. Includes
the contributor's review-findings fixup (regex hardening, observability,
auth coverage).
Resolved a small DispatchResult conflict alongside main's 'stale' field;
kept both. Authorship preserved via rebase merge.
Salvages #26745 by @nehaaprasaad. Exposes filtering for the existing
workflow_template_id and current_step_key columns:
- list_tasks() accepts workflow_template_id and current_step_key kwargs
- 'hermes kanban list' adds matching CLI flags
- dashboard plugin_api also exposes the filters
Resolved a small conflict in list_tasks signature alongside main's
session_id and order_by additions; combined all three into the single
filter list.
Salvages #23790 by @thewillhuang. Adds detect_stale_running() to
the dispatcher cycle. Running tasks that have been started for longer
than dispatch_stale_timeout_seconds (default 14400 = 4h) without a
heartbeat in the last hour are auto-reclaimed to ready.
- New config kanban.dispatch_stale_timeout_seconds (default 14400, 0 disables)
- New 'stale' field on DispatchResult
- detect_stale_running() in kanban_db.py with heartbeat freshness check
- Records outcome='stale' on run close + 'stale' event; ticks failure counter
- Wires config through gateway embedded dispatcher
- Updates _cmd_dispatch verbose/JSON output and daemon logging
Resolved test-file end-of-file conflict by appending both halves.
Salvages #23772 by @thewillhuang. Adds 'review' as a valid kanban task
status and extends dispatch_once to monitor the review column as a
second dispatch source (in addition to the existing ready column).
- Adds 'review' to VALID_STATUSES
- Adds claim_review_task() — atomically transitions review → running
- Adds has_spawnable_review() — health telemetry mirror
- Extends dispatch_once with a review column dispatch loop
- Review agents get 'sdlc-review' skill auto-loaded
Resolved 2 conflicts (VALID_STATUSES merge with main's 'scheduled' state,
test file additions). Adapted claim_review_task to main's
ttl_seconds: Optional[int] = None convention (matches claim_task).
Salvages #23208 by @awizemann. Tracks which chat session created a
kanban task so clients can render a per-session board without falling
back to tenant + time-window heuristics.
- Schema: tasks gains nullable session_id TEXT column with index
(additive migration in _migrate_add_optional_columns).
- ACP: server.py exposes the originating session id via HERMES_SESSION_ID
with save/restore around the agent loop.
- Tool: kanban_create reads HERMES_SESSION_ID (with explicit override).
- CLI: 'hermes kanban list --session <id>' filter; JSON output exposes
session_id.
Salvages #26791 by @Niraven. Adds 'hermes kanban swarm' to create a
durable Kanban Swarm v1 graph: a completed root/blackboard card,
parallel worker cards, a verifier gated on all workers, and a
synthesizer gated on the verifier. Stores shared swarm blackboard
updates as structured JSON comments on the root card.
Self-contained: new hermes_cli/kanban_swarm.py module + CLI wiring +
unit tests.
Salvages #26897 by @loicnico96. The per-task model_override DB column
already exists on main, but it wasn't exposed in user-facing surfaces.
This adds:
- 'kanban show' prints 'model: <name>' when model_override is set
- kanban_show / kanban_list tool responses include the model_override field
Original branch was stale (PR was authored against an older field name
'model'); applied the substantive surface exposure manually using the
current 'model_override' field name.
Salvages #25745 by @LizerAIDev. Adds --sort {created,created-desc,
priority,priority-desc,status,assignee,title,updated} to 'hermes kanban
list'. Validated against VALID_SORT_ORDERS map; invalid values raise
ValueError. Default behaviour (priority DESC, created ASC) is unchanged
when --sort is omitted.
Salvages #23302 by @Bartok9. Four independent one-area fixes:
1. kanban boards delete alias now hard-deletes (not archives) — the
alias didn't carry --delete, so getattr(args, 'delete', False)
returned False. Detect boards_action=='delete' explicitly.
2. Gateway auto-title failures no longer leak as user-visible
warnings — debug-log only since they're not actionable.
3. Background process completion notification snaps truncation to
the next newline boundary, prepends a marker when content is
dropped.
4. _cprint() schedules the run_in_terminal coroutine via
asyncio.ensure_future so output isn't silently dropped from
background threads (fixes#23185 Bug A). Skips the
double-print fallback that would fire for mock paths.
Salvages #22981 by @SimbaKingjoe. Adds 'kanban.max_in_progress' config
that caps simultaneously running tasks. When the board already has N
running, dispatcher skips spawning so slow workers (local LLMs,
resource-constrained hosts) don't pile up and time out.
Threads through dispatch_once(max_in_progress=) and gateway dispatcher
config parsing with validation (warns on invalid/below-1 values).
Salvages #26431 by @LeonSGP43. Dashboard plugin_api list_diagnostics
was using exact-match (severity == filter), so '--severity warning'
hid 'error' and 'critical' diagnostics. Adds severity_at_or_above()
helper to kanban_diagnostics and uses it in the dashboard endpoint
(CLI already used SEVERITY_ORDER comparison correctly).
Salvages #27369 by @LeonJS. complete_task() now calls _cleanup_workspace()
and _cleanup_worker_tmux() after marking a task complete.
Scratch workspaces (used by swarm agents) accumulate on disk — hundreds
of MB per task, never released. Stale tmux sessions from completed
agents also persist indefinitely.
Both gates are safe:
- workspace_kind == 'scratch' gate preserves user worktree/dir workspaces
- tmux #{pane_dead} == 1 gate only kills sessions where the worker has
already exited
- best-effort: cleanup failures never block task completion
Salvages #27526 by @shunsuke-hikiyama. Adds an --initial-status flag
(running|blocked, default running) to 'kanban create', threaded through
kanban_db.create_task() and the kanban_create tool schema. 'blocked'
parks the task directly in the blocked column for R3 human-ops review,
skipping the brief running-to-blocked transition.
Dropped the unrelated 'add' alias, WIFEXITED Windows compat, and
slash-handler error formatting changes that were bundled in the
original PR — those should ship as their own focused changes if still
wanted.
Salvages #23368 by @uzunkuyruk. Oneshot workers (e.g. kanban workers
spawned via 'hermes -p <profile> chat -q ...') were not honouring the
profile's fallback_providers / fallback_model chain because oneshot.py
never read the config and never passed fallback_model= to AIAgent.
Reads cfg.get('fallback_providers') (new list format) or
cfg.get('fallback_model') (legacy single-dict) with the same
normalization cli.py applies, then forwards as fallback_model=_fb.
Salvages #27372 by @oemtalks. The dispatcher unconditionally injected
`--skills kanban-worker` into every worker spawn, but worker profiles
sometimes don't have that bundled skill in their skills dir, which is
fatal at CLI startup (`ValueError: Unknown skill(s): kanban-worker`).
Adds `_kanban_worker_skill_available(hermes_home)` and only injects the
flag when the skill resolves. The MANDATORY lifecycle still ships via
KANBAN_GUIDANCE in the system prompt, so omitting the flag is safe.
Salvages #28301 by @Ade5954. If WAL setup, PRAGMA application, or schema
init raises after sqlite3.connect() succeeds, the new connection was
leaking. Wrap the body in try/except so the connection is closed before
the exception propagates.
Prevents ValueError crash in dashboard get_board() when a task has
an ISO timestamp (e.g. "2026-05-10T15:00:00Z") instead of a unix epoch
int. Adds _to_epoch() helper that normalises both formats.
When a systemic failure (provider outage, auth expiry, OOM) crashes
multiple workers simultaneously, detect_crashed_workers increments
each task failure counter independently. The circuit breaker only
trips after N × failure_limit retries across the fleet.
Fingerprint crash errors by normalizing host-specific details (PIDs,
timestamps). When 3+ tasks crash with the same fingerprint in a
single detection cycle, immediately trip the circuit breaker
(failure_limit=1) instead of waiting for repeated failures.
Isolated crashes (unique fingerprints) retain their normal retry
budget. Protocol violations continue to trip immediately.
Includes regression tests for systemic and isolated crash paths.
When a task is manually unblocked (blocked → ready/todo), the
consecutive_failures counter and last_failure_error were left intact.
The next failure would immediately re-trip the circuit breaker because
the counter was still at or above the failure limit.
Reset both fields on unblock so the task gets a fresh retry budget.
Includes a regression test that verifies counters are zeroed.
max_runtime_seconds=0 was being silently coerced to None due to a falsy
check (if max_runtime_seconds). Zero is a valid value that causes the
dispatcher to immediately time out a task. The adjacent max_retries
parameter already used the correct 'is not None' pattern.
Fixes the inconsistency by aligning max_runtime_seconds with max_retries.
recompute_ready only scanned 'todo' tasks for promotion, ignoring
'blocked' tasks entirely. When a task was blocked (e.g. by the circuit
breaker) and its parent dependencies later completed, the task stayed
stuck in 'blocked' forever unless manually unblocked.
Now recompute_ready also scans 'blocked' tasks. When all parents are
done/archived, the blocked task is promoted to 'ready' with failure
counters reset — equivalent to an automatic unblock.
Includes a regression test for the blocked-parent-done promotion path.
Archiving or deleting a board via remove_board() leaves the path's
"schema already initialized" entry in the module-level cache. A
concurrent connect(board=<slug>) call (e.g. the dashboard event-stream
poll loop) then:
1. resolves the same kanban.db path,
2. recreates the directory + an empty sqlite file because
connect() does mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True),
3. skips the CREATE TABLE pass because the cache entry says the
schema is already in place,
4. errors on the next read with `no such table: task_events`.
Drop the cache entry before mutating the filesystem so the fresh file
gets a proper schema init on next connect(). Applies to both
archive=True (rename) and archive=False (rmtree) branches.
Fixes#23833.

- Add model_override field to Task class and tasks schema
- Add migration for existing databases
- Spawn worker with -m model when model_override is set
Register the new ``--manual-paste`` flag on both entry points and
thread it through to the xAI loopback login:
* ``hermes auth add xai-oauth --manual-paste`` — pool-add path,
forwarded inside ``auth_commands.handle_auth_add``.
* ``hermes model --manual-paste`` — model-picker path, forwarded
by ``_model_flow_xai_oauth`` into the synthetic ``argparse.Namespace``
it passes to ``_login_xai_oauth``. The picker also now forwards
``--no-browser`` and ``--timeout`` for consistency (previously
hardcoded to defaults regardless of CLI flags).
Help text on both flags points at #26923 and names the
browser-only remote consoles (Cloud Shell, Codespaces, EC2
Instance Connect) so users searching ``hermes --help`` can find
the workaround.
xAI Grok OAuth (and Spotify) use a loopback redirect to
``http://127.0.0.1:<port>/callback`` to capture the authorization
code. That works when the browser and Hermes run on the same
machine, and the SSH tunnel recipe handles the regular remote
case. It breaks completely on **browser-only remote consoles**
(GCP Cloud Shell, GitHub Codespaces, AWS EC2 Instance Connect,
Gitpod, Replit, …) where the user has a browser but no real SSH
client to forward a port — the redirect to 127.0.0.1 on the
remote VM simply isn't reachable from the laptop, and there's
nothing the existing flow can do about it (#26923).
This commit adds the foundation for a manual-paste fallback:
* ``_is_remote_session`` now also recognises Cloud Shell,
Codespaces, Gitpod, Replit, StackBlitz (in addition to SSH),
so the existing tunnel hint at least fires in those
environments.
* ``_parse_pasted_callback`` accepts any of: a full
``http(s)://...?code=...&state=...`` URL, a bare ``?code=...``
query string, a bare ``code=...&state=...`` fragment, or a
bare opaque code value. Returns the same dict shape the HTTP
callback handler produces, so the caller's state / error
validation works unchanged (no CSRF bypass).
* ``_prompt_manual_callback_paste`` reads stdin with a clear
multi-line explanation of what's happening and what to paste.
* ``_xai_oauth_loopback_login`` gains a ``manual_paste`` kwarg
that skips the HTTP listener entirely. The redirect_uri,
PKCE verifier, state, and nonce are byte-identical to the
loopback path so xAI's token endpoint can't tell the
difference at the protocol level.
* ``_print_loopback_ssh_hint`` now also mentions
``--manual-paste`` so users without a real SSH client see a
path forward instead of a dead-end tunnel recipe.
* ``_login_xai_oauth`` threads ``args.manual_paste`` into the
loopback helper.
Salvages #19964 by @Beandon13. Adds `hermes kanban archive --rm` to
permanently remove already-archived tasks with cascading cleanup of
links, comments, events, runs, and notify-subs. Safety guard: only
archived tasks can be deleted; active/blocked/done must be archived
first.
Cherry-picked from #19964 onto current main (severe stale base, applied
manually to preserve substance only).
xAI's token endpoint returns HTTP 403 to the OAuth grant when the
account isn't on the allowlist for API access (e.g. standard
SuperGrok subscribers — see #26847). Treating it like a stale-token
400/401 made ``format_auth_error`` append "Run ``hermes model`` to
re-authenticate", which is misleading because re-login can't change
xAI's tier decision.
Split 403 off in both ``refresh_xai_oauth_pure`` and the loopback
login token exchange:
* New error code ``xai_oauth_tier_denied`` with ``relogin_required=False``
* Message explains the entitlement gate and points at the
``XAI_API_KEY`` + ``provider: xai`` fallback
* 400/401 still set ``relogin_required=True`` as before
* 5xx still set ``relogin_required=False`` as before
When the kanban auto-decomposer fans a triage task into child tasks,
recompute_ready() immediately promotes parent-free children to 'ready'
so the dispatcher picks them up. Some users want a manual workflow
where children stay in 'todo' for review before dispatch.
Add 'kanban.auto_promote_children' config key (default: true):
- false: children stay in 'todo' after decomposition
- true: existing behavior (auto-promote to 'ready')
Changes:
- kanban_db.py: decompose_triage_task() gains auto_promote param
- kanban_decompose.py: reads auto_promote_children from config
- kanban dashboard API: exposes the new setting in GET/PUT /orchestration
Closes#28016
resolve_xai_oauth_runtime_credentials() called _refresh_xai_oauth_tokens()
with no try/except. A terminal refresh failure (HTTP 400/401/403 —
invalid_grant, token revoked) propagated without clearing the dead
access_token / refresh_token from auth.json, causing every subsequent
session to retry the same doomed network request.
Add a try/except around the refresh call that mirrors the existing
credential_pool.py quarantine: when _is_terminal_xai_oauth_refresh_error
identifies a non-retryable failure, clear the dead token fields from
auth.json and write a last_auth_error diagnostic marker so future calls
fail fast with a clear relogin_required error instead of hitting the
network.
active_provider is preserved (set_active=False) so multi-provider users
whose chosen provider is not xai-oauth are unaffected.
Tests: two new cases in test_auth_xai_oauth_provider.py cover terminal
quarantine and transient pass-through.
