When all messaging platforms exhaust retries and get queued for background
reconnection, exit with code 1 so systemd Restart=on-failure can restart
the process. Previously the gateway stayed alive as a zombie with no
connected platforms and exit code 0.

* feat: GPT tool-use steering + strip budget warnings from history
Two changes to improve tool reliability, especially for OpenAI GPT models:
1. GPT tool-use enforcement prompt: Adds GPT_TOOL_USE_GUIDANCE to the
system prompt when the model name contains 'gpt' and tools are loaded.
This addresses a known behavioral pattern where GPT models describe
intended actions ('I will run the tests') instead of actually making
tool calls. Inspired by similar steering in OpenCode (beast.txt) and
Cline (GPT-5.1 variant).
2. Budget warning history stripping: Budget pressure warnings injected by
_get_budget_warning() into tool results are now stripped when
conversation history is replayed via run_conversation(). Previously,
these turn-scoped signals persisted across turns, causing models to
avoid tool calls in all subsequent messages after any turn that hit
the 70-90% iteration threshold.
* fix: replace hardcoded ~/.hermes paths with get_hermes_home() for profile support
Prep for the upcoming profiles feature — each profile is a separate
HERMES_HOME directory, so all paths must respect the env var.
Fixes:
- gateway/platforms/matrix.py: Matrix E2EE store was hardcoded to
~/.hermes/matrix/store, ignoring HERMES_HOME. Now uses
get_hermes_home() so each profile gets its own Matrix state.
- gateway/platforms/telegram.py: Two locations reading config.yaml via
Path.home()/.hermes instead of get_hermes_home(). DM topic thread_id
persistence and hot-reload would read the wrong config in a profile.
- tools/file_tools.py: Security path for hub index blocking was
hardcoded to ~/.hermes, would miss the actual profile's hub cache.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py: Service naming now uses the profile name
(hermes-gateway-coder) instead of a cryptic hash suffix. Extracted
_profile_suffix() helper shared by systemd and launchd.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py: Launchd plist path and Label now scoped per
profile (ai.hermes.gateway-coder.plist). Previously all profiles
would collide on the same plist file on macOS.
- hermes_cli/gateway.py: Launchd plist now includes HERMES_HOME in
EnvironmentVariables — was missing entirely, making custom
HERMES_HOME broken on macOS launchd (pre-existing bug).
- All launchctl commands in gateway.py, main.py, status.py updated
to use get_launchd_label() instead of hardcoded string.
Test fixes: DM topic tests now set HERMES_HOME env var alongside
Path.home() mock. Launchd test uses get_launchd_label() for expected
commands.
Add GET /v1/health as an alias to the existing /health endpoint so
OpenAI-compatible health checks work out of the box.

* fix(gateway): preserve full transcript on /compress instead of overwriting
The /compress command calls _compress_context() which correctly ends the
old session (preserving its full transcript in SQLite) and creates a new
session_id for the continuation. However, it then immediately called
rewrite_transcript() on the OLD session_id, overwriting the preserved
transcript with the compressed version — destroying searchable history.
Auto-compression (triggered by context pressure) does not have this bug
because the gateway already handles the session_id swap via the
agent.session_id != session_id check after _run_agent_sync.
Fix: after _compress_context creates the new session, write the compressed
messages into the NEW session_id and update the session store pointer.
The old session's full transcript stays intact and searchable via
session_search.
Before: /compress destroys original messages, session_search can't find
details from compressed portions.
After: /compress behaves like /new for history — full transcript preserved,
compressed context for the live session.
* fix(gateway): preserve transcript on /compress and hygiene compression
Apply session_id swap after _compress_context in both /compress handler
and hygiene pre-compression. _compress_context creates a new session
(ending the old one), but both paths were calling rewrite_transcript on
the OLD session_id — overwriting the preserved transcript and destroying
searchable history.
Now follows the same pattern as the auto-compression handler (lines
5415-5423): detect the new session_id, update the session store entry,
and write compressed messages to the new session.
Also fix FakeCompressAgent test mock to include session_id attribute
and simulate the session_id change that real _compress_context performs.

Salvage of #3399 by @binhnt92 with true agent interruption added on top.
When a streaming /v1/chat/completions client disconnects mid-stream, the agent is now interrupted via agent.interrupt() so it stops making LLM API calls, and the asyncio task wrapper is cancelled.
Closes#3399.
python-telegram-bot's BadRequest inherits from NetworkError, so the
send() retry loop was catching 'Message thread not found' as a transient
network error and retrying 3 times before silently failing. This killed
all tool progress messages, streaming responses, and typing indicators
when the incoming message carried an invalid message_thread_id.
Now detect BadRequest inside the NetworkError handler:
- 'thread not found' + thread_id set → clear thread_id and retry once
(message still reaches the chat, just without topic threading)
- Other BadRequest errors → raise immediately (permanent, don't retry)
- True NetworkError → retry as before (transient)
252 silent failures in gateway.log traced to this on 2026-03-26.
5 new tests for thread fallback, non-thread BadRequest, no-thread sends,
network retry, and multi-chunk fallback.
* feat(telegram): auto-discover fallback IPs via DoH when api.telegram.org is unreachable
On some networks (university, corporate), api.telegram.org resolves to a
valid Telegram IP that is unreachable due to routing/firewall rules. A
different IP in the same Telegram-owned 149.154.160.0/20 block works fine.
This adds automatic fallback IP discovery at connect time:
1. Query Google and Cloudflare DNS-over-HTTPS for api.telegram.org A records
2. Exclude the system-DNS IP (the unreachable one), use the rest as fallbacks
3. If DoH is also blocked, fall back to a seed list (149.154.167.220)
4. TelegramFallbackTransport tries primary first, sticks to whichever works
No configuration needed — works automatically. TELEGRAM_FALLBACK_IPS env var
still available as manual override. Zero impact on healthy networks (primary
path succeeds on first attempt, fallback never exercised).
No new dependencies (uses httpx already in deps + stdlib socket).
* fix: share transport instance and downgrade seed fallback log to info
- Use single TelegramFallbackTransport shared between request and
get_updates_request so sticky IP is shared across polling and API calls
- Keep separate HTTPXRequest instances (different timeout settings)
- Downgrade "using seed fallback IPs" from warning to info to avoid
noisy logs on healthy networks
* fix: add telegram.request mock and discovery fixture to remaining test files
The original PR missed test_dm_topics.py and
test_telegram_network_reconnect.py — both need the telegram.request
mock module. The reconnect test also needs _no_auto_discovery since
_handle_polling_network_error calls connect() which now invokes
discover_fallback_ips().

When a new session starts in the gateway (via /new, /reset, or
auto-reset), send the user a summary of the detected configuration:
✨ Session reset! Starting fresh.
◆ Model: qwen3.5:27b-q4_K_M
◆ Provider: custom
◆ Context: 8K tokens (config)
◆ Endpoint: http://localhost:11434/v1
This makes misconfigured context length immediately visible — a user
running a local 8K model that falls to the 128K default will see:
◆ Context: 128K tokens (default — set model.context_length in config to override)
Instead of silently getting no compression and degrading responses.
- _format_session_info() resolves model, provider, context length,
and endpoint from config + runtime, matching the hygiene code's
resolution chain
- Local/custom endpoints shown; cloud endpoints hidden (not useful)
- Context source annotated: config, detected, or default with hint
- Appended to /new and /reset responses, and auto-reset notifications
- 9 tests covering all formatting paths and failure resilience
Addresses the user-facing side of #2708 — instead of trying to fix
every edge case in context detection, surface the values so users
can immediately see when something is wrong.
The gateway's update_session() used += for token counts, but the cached
agent's session_prompt_tokens / session_completion_tokens are cumulative
totals that grow across messages. Each update_session call re-added the
running total, inflating usage stats with every message (1.7x after 3
messages, worse over longer conversations).
Fix: change += to = for in-memory entry fields, add set_token_counts()
to SessionDB that uses direct assignment instead of SQL increment, and
switch the gateway to call it.
CLI mode continues using update_token_counts() (increment) since it
tracks per-API-call deltas — that path is unchanged.
Based on analysis from PR #3222 by @zaycruz (closed).

The cached agent accumulates session_input_tokens across messages, so
run_conversation() returns cumulative totals. But update_session() used
+= (increment), double-counting on every message after the first.
- session.py: change in-memory entry updates from += to = (direct
assignment for cumulative values)
- hermes_state.py: add absolute=True flag to update_token_counts()
that uses SET column = ? instead of SET column = column + ?
- session.py: pass absolute=True to the DB call
CLI path is unchanged — it passes per-API-call deltas directly to
update_token_counts() with the default absolute=False (increment).
Reported by @zaycruz in #3222. Closes#3222.
The startup warning 'No user allowlists configured' only checked
GATEWAY_ALLOW_ALL_USERS and per-platform _ALLOWED_USERS vars. It
missed SIGNAL_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS and per-platform _ALLOW_ALL_USERS
vars (e.g. TELEGRAM_ALLOW_ALL_USERS), causing a false warning even
when users had these configured. The actual auth check in
_is_user_authorized already recognized these vars.

* fix(gateway): silence flush agent terminal output
quiet_mode=True only suppresses AIAgent init messages.
Tool call output still leaks to the terminal through
_safe_print → _print_fn during session reset/expiry.
Since #2670 injected live memory state into the flush prompt,
the flush agent now reliably calls memory tools — making the
output leak noticeable for the first time.
Set _print_fn to a no-op so the background flush is fully silent.
* test(gateway): add test for flush agent terminal silence + fix dotenv mock
- Add TestFlushAgentSilenced: verifies _print_fn is set to a no-op on
the flush agent so tool output never leaks to the terminal
- Fix pre-existing test failures: replace patch('run_agent.AIAgent')
with sys.modules mock to avoid importing run_agent (requires openai)
- Add autouse _mock_dotenv fixture so all tests in this file run
without the dotenv package installed
* fix(display): route KawaiiSpinner output through print_fn to fully silence flush agent
The previous fix set tmp_agent._print_fn = no-op on the flush agent but
spinner output and quiet-mode cute messages bypassed _print_fn entirely:
- KawaiiSpinner captured sys.stdout at __init__ and wrote directly to it
- quiet-mode tool results used builtin print() instead of _safe_print()
Add optional print_fn parameter to KawaiiSpinner.__init__; _write routes
through it when set. Pass self._print_fn to all spinner construction sites
in run_agent.py and change the quiet-mode cute message print to _safe_print.
The existing gateway fix (tmp_agent._print_fn = lambda) now propagates
correctly through both paths.

Apply the same _print_fn no-op pattern used for the flush agent.

When send() fails due to a network error (ConnectError, ReadTimeout, etc.),
the failure was silently logged and the user received no feedback — appearing
as a hang. In one reported case, a user waited 1+ hour for a response that
had already been generated but failed to deliver (#2910).
Adds _send_with_retry() to BasePlatformAdapter:
- Transient errors: retry up to 2x with exponential backoff + jitter
- On exhaustion: send delivery-failure notice so user knows to retry
- Permanent errors: fall back to plain-text version (preserves existing behavior)
- SendResult.retryable flag for platform-specific transient errors
All adapters benefit automatically via BasePlatformAdapter inheritance.

After a Telegram 502, _handle_polling_network_error calls updater.stop()
then start_polling(). If start_polling() also raises, the old code logged
a warning and returned — but the comment 'The next network error will
trigger another attempt' was wrong. The updater loop is dead after stop(),
so no further error callbacks ever fire. The gateway stays alive but
permanently deaf to messages.
Fix: when start_polling() fails in the except branch, schedule a new
_handle_polling_network_error task to continue the exponential backoff
retry chain. The task is tracked in _background_tasks (preventing GC).
Guarded by has_fatal_error to avoid spurious retries during shutdown.

* feat: config-gated /verbose command for messaging gateway
Add gateway_config_gate field to CommandDef, allowing cli_only commands
to be conditionally available in the gateway based on a config value.
- CommandDef gains gateway_config_gate: str | None — a config dotpath
that, when truthy, overrides cli_only for gateway surfaces
- /verbose uses gateway_config_gate='display.tool_progress_command'
- Default is off (cli_only behavior preserved)
- When enabled, /verbose cycles tool_progress mode (off/new/all/verbose)
in the gateway, saving to config.yaml — same cycle as the CLI
- Gateway helpers (help, telegram menus, slack mapping) dynamically
check config to include/exclude config-gated commands
- GATEWAY_KNOWN_COMMANDS always includes config-gated commands so
the gateway recognizes them and can respond appropriately
- Handles YAML 1.1 bool coercion (bare 'off' parses as False)
- 8 new tests for the config gate mechanism + gateway handler
* docs: document gateway_config_gate and /verbose messaging support
- AGENTS.md: add gateway_config_gate to CommandDef fields
- slash-commands.md: note /verbose can be enabled for messaging, update Notes
- configuration.md: add tool_progress_command to display section + usage note

* fix(session-db): survive CLI/gateway concurrent write contention
Closes#3139
Three layered fixes for the scenario where CLI and gateway write to
state.db concurrently, causing create_session() to fail with
'database is locked' and permanently disabling session_search on the
gateway side.
1. Increase SQLite connection timeout: 10s -> 30s
hermes_state.py: longer window for the WAL writer to finish a batch
flush before the other process gives up entirely.
2. INSERT OR IGNORE in create_session
hermes_state.py: prevents IntegrityError on duplicate session IDs
(e.g. gateway restarts while CLI session is still alive).
3. Don't null out _session_db on create_session failure (main fix)
run_agent.py: a transient lock at agent startup must not permanently
disable session_search for the lifetime of that agent instance.
_session_db now stays alive so subsequent flushes and searches work
once the lock clears.
4. New ensure_session() helper + call it during flush
hermes_state.py: INSERT OR IGNORE for a minimal session row.
run_agent.py _flush_messages_to_session_db: calls ensure_session()
before appending messages, so the FK constraint is satisfied even
when create_session() failed at startup. No-op when the row exists.
* fix(state): release lock between context queries in search_messages
The context-window queries (one per FTS5 match) were running inside
the same lock acquisition as the primary FTS5 query, holding the lock
for O(N) sequential SQLite round-trips. Move per-match context fetches
outside the outer lock block so each acquires the lock independently,
keeping critical sections short and allowing other threads to interleave.
* fix(session): prefer longer source in load_transcript to prevent legacy truncation
When a long-lived session pre-dates SQLite storage (e.g. sessions
created before the DB layer was introduced, or after a clean
deployment that reset the DB), _flush_messages_to_session_db only
writes the *new* messages from the current turn to SQLite — it skips
messages already present in conversation_history, assuming they are
already persisted.
That assumption fails for legacy JSONL-only sessions:
Turn N (first after DB migration):
load_transcript(id) → SQLite: 0 → falls back to JSONL: 994 ✓
_flush_messages_to_session_db: skip first 994, write 2 new → SQLite: 2
Turn N+1:
load_transcript(id) → SQLite: 2 → returns immediately ✗
Agent sees 2 messages of history instead of 996
The same pattern causes the reported symptom: session JSON truncated
to 4 messages (_save_session_log writes agent.messages which only has
2 history + 2 new = 4).
Fix: always load both sources and return whichever is longer. For a
fully-migrated session SQLite will always be ≥ JSONL, so there is no
regression. For a legacy session that hasn't been bootstrapped yet,
JSONL wins and the full history is restored.
Closes#3212
* test: add load_transcript source preference tests for #3212
Covers: JSONL longer returns JSONL, SQLite longer returns SQLite,
SQLite empty falls back to JSONL, both empty returns empty, equal
length prefers SQLite (richer reasoning fields).

Gateway sessions had their own inline toolset resolution that only read
platform_toolsets from config, which never includes MCP server names.
MCP tools were discovered and registered but invisible to the model.
- Replace duplicated gateway toolset resolution in _run_agent() and

- Extend _get_platform_tools() to include globally enabled MCP servers
at runtime (include_default_mcp_servers=True), while config-editing
flows use include_default_mcp_servers=False to avoid persisting
implicit MCP defaults into platform_toolsets
- Add homeassistant to PLATFORMS dict (was missing, caused KeyError)

Previously _agent_config_signature() used only the first 8 characters of
the API key, which causes false cache hits for JWT/OAuth tokens that share
a common prefix (e.g. 'eyJhbGci'). This led to cross-account cache
collisions when switching OAuth accounts in multi-user gateway deployments.
Replace the 8-char prefix with a SHA-256 hash of the full key so the
signature is unique per credential while keeping secrets out of the
cache key.

When an agent thread hangs (truly blocked, never checks _interrupt_requested),
/stop now force-cleans _running_agents to unlock the session immediately.
Two changes:
- Early /stop intercept in the running-agent guard: bypasses normal command
dispatch to force-interrupt and unlock the session. Follows the same pattern
as the existing /new intercept.
- Sentinel /stop: force-cleans the sentinel instead of returning 'nothing to
stop yet', so /stop during slow startup actually unlocks the session.
Follow-up improvements over original PR:
- Consolidated duplicate resolve_command imports into single early resolution
- Updated _handle_stop_command to also force-clean for consistency
- Removed 10-minute hard timeout on the executor (would kill legitimate
long-running agent tasks; the /stop force-clean handles recovery)

* fix(run_agent): ensure _fire_first_delta() is called for tool generation events
Added calls to _fire_first_delta() in the AIAgent class to improve the handling of tool generation events, ensuring timely notifications during the processing of function calls and tool usage.
* fix(run_agent): improve timeout handling for chat completions
Enhanced the timeout configuration for chat completions in the AIAgent class by introducing customizable connection, read, and write timeouts using environment variables. This ensures more robust handling of API requests during streaming operations.
* fix(run_agent): reduce default stream read timeout for chat completions
Updated the default stream read timeout from 120 seconds to 60 seconds in the AIAgent class, enhancing the timeout configuration for chat completions. This change aims to improve responsiveness during streaming operations.
* fix(run_agent): enhance streaming error handling and retry logic
Improved the error handling and retry mechanism for streaming requests in the AIAgent class. Introduced a configurable maximum number of stream retries and refined the handling of transient network errors, allowing for retries with fresh connections. Non-transient errors now trigger a fallback to non-streaming only when appropriate, ensuring better resilience during API interactions.
* fix(api_server): streaming breaks when agent makes tool calls
The agent fires stream_delta_callback(None) to signal the CLI display
to close its response box before tool execution begins. The API server's
_on_delta callback was forwarding this None directly into the SSE queue,
where the SSE writer treats it as end-of-stream and terminates the HTTP
response prematurely.
After tool calls complete, the agent streams the final answer through
the same callback, but the SSE response was already closed — so Open
WebUI (and similar frontends) never received the actual answer.
Fix: filter out None in _on_delta so the SSE stream stays open. The SSE
loop already detects completion via agent_task.done(), which handles
stream termination correctly without needing the None sentinel.

The gateway memory flush agent reviews old conversation history on session
reset/expiry and writes to memory. It had no awareness of memory changes
made after that conversation ended (by the live agent, cron jobs, or other
sessions), causing silent overwrites of newer entries.
Two fixes:
1. Skip memory flush entirely for cron sessions (session IDs starting with
'cron_'). Cron sessions are headless with no meaningful user conversation
to extract memories from.
2. Inject the current live memory state (MEMORY.md + USER.md) directly into
the flush prompt. The flush agent can now see what's already saved and
make informed decisions — only adding genuinely new information rather
than blindly overwriting entries that may have been updated since the
conversation ended.
Addresses the root cause identified in #2670: the flush agent was making
memory decisions blind to the current state of memory, causing stale
context to overwrite newer entries on gateway restarts and session resets.

Cherry-picked from PR #2575 by ticketclosed-wontfix.
Filters out Discord system messages (thread renames, pins, member joins,
boosts) that were being treated as regular user messages.
Follow-up fix: also allow MessageType.reply (value 19) — the original
filter only allowed MessageType.default, which would silently drop all
reply-based interactions.
Added pytest.importorskip for discord dependency in tests.
When a messaging platform fails to connect at startup (e.g. transient DNS
failure) or disconnects at runtime with a retryable error, the gateway now
queues it for background reconnection instead of giving up permanently.
- New _platform_reconnect_watcher background task runs alongside the
existing session expiry watcher
- Exponential backoff: 30s, 60s, 120s, 240s, 300s cap
- Max 20 retry attempts before giving up on a platform
- Non-retryable errors (bad auth token, etc.) are not retried
- Runtime disconnections via _handle_adapter_fatal_error now queue
retryable failures instead of triggering gateway shutdown
- On successful reconnect, adapter is wired up and channel directory
is rebuilt automatically
Fixes the case where a DNS blip during gateway startup caused Telegram
and Discord to be permanently unavailable until manual restart.
The previous commit capped the 1.4x at 95% of context, but the multiplier
itself is unnecessary and confusing:
85% threshold × 1.4 = 119% of context → never fires
95% warn × 1.4 = 133% of context → never warns
The 85% hygiene threshold already provides ample headroom over the agent's
own 50% compressor. Even if rough estimates overestimate by 50%, hygiene
would fire at ~57% actual usage — safe and harmless.
Remove the multiplier entirely. Both actual and estimated token paths
now use the same 85% / 95% thresholds. Update tests and comments.
Three bugs in gateway session hygiene pre-compression caused 'Session too
large' errors for ~200K context models like GLM-5-turbo on z.ai:
1. Gateway hygiene called get_model_context_length(model) without passing
config_context_length, provider, or base_url — so user overrides like
model.context_length: 180000 were ignored, and provider-aware detection
(models.dev, z.ai endpoint) couldn't fire. The agent's own compressor
correctly passed all three (run_agent.py line 1038).
2. The 1.4x safety factor on rough token estimates pushed the compression
threshold above the model's actual context limit:
200K * 0.85 * 1.4 = 238K > 200K (model limit)
So hygiene never compressed, sessions grew past the limit, and the API
rejected the request.
3. Same issue for the warn threshold: 200K * 0.95 * 1.4 = 266K.
Fix:
- Read model.context_length, provider, and base_url from config.yaml
(same as run_agent.py does) and pass them to get_model_context_length()
- Resolve provider/base_url from runtime when not in config
- Cap the 1.4x-adjusted compress threshold at 95% of context_length
- Cap the 1.4x-adjusted warn threshold at context_length
Affects: z.ai GLM-5/GLM-5-turbo, any ~200K or smaller context model
where the 1.4x factor would push 85% above 100%.

When a session expires (daily schedule or idle timeout) and is
automatically reset, send a notification to the user explaining
what happened:
◐ Session automatically reset (inactive for 24h).
Conversation history cleared.
Use /resume to browse and restore a previous session.
Adjust reset timing in config.yaml under session_reset.
Notifications are suppressed when:
- The expired session had no activity (no tokens used)
- The platform is excluded (api_server, webhook by default)
- notify: false in config
Changes:
- session.py: _should_reset() returns reason string ('idle'/'daily')
instead of bool; SessionEntry gains auto_reset_reason and
reset_had_activity fields; old entry's total_tokens checked
- config.py: SessionResetPolicy gains notify (bool, default: true)
and notify_exclude_platforms (default: api_server, webhook)
- run.py: sends notification via adapter.send() before processing
the user's message, with activity + platform checks
- 13 new tests
Config (config.yaml):
session_reset:
notify: true
notify_exclude_platforms: [api_server, webhook]
- Download and cache .pdf, .docx, .xlsx, .pptx attachments locally
instead of passing expiring CDN URLs to the agent
- Inject .txt and .md content (≤100 KB) into event.text so the agent
sees file content without needing to fetch the URL
- Add 20 MB size guard and SUPPORTED_DOCUMENT_TYPES allowlist
- Fix: unsupported types (.zip etc.) no longer get MessageType.DOCUMENT
- Add 9 unit tests in test_discord_document_handling.py
Mirrors the Slack implementation from PR #784. Discord CDN URLs are
publicly accessible so no auth header is needed (unlike Slack).

* fix: respect DashScope v1 runtime mode for alibaba
Remove the hardcoded Alibaba branch from resolve_runtime_provider()
that forced api_mode='anthropic_messages' regardless of the base URL.
Alibaba now goes through the generic API-key provider path, which
auto-detects the protocol from the URL:
- /apps/anthropic → anthropic_messages (via endswith check)
- /v1 → chat_completions (default)
This fixes Alibaba setup with OpenAI-compatible DashScope endpoints
(e.g. coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1) that were broken because
runtime always forced Anthropic mode even when setup saved a /v1 URL.
Based on PR #2024 by @kshitijk4poor.
* docs(skill): add split, merge, search examples to ocr-and-documents skill
Adds pymupdf examples for PDF splitting, merging, and text search
to the existing ocr-and-documents skill. No new dependencies — pymupdf
already covers all three operations natively.
* fix: replace all production print() calls with logger in rl_training_tool
Replace all bare print() calls in production code paths with proper logger calls.
- Add `import logging` and module-level `logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)`
- Replace print() in _start_training_run() with logger.info()
- Replace print() in _stop_training_run() with logger.info()
- Replace print(Warning/Note) calls with logger.warning() and logger.info()
Using the logging framework allows log level filtering, proper formatting,
and log routing instead of always printing to stdout.
* fix(gateway): process /queue'd messages after agent completion
/queue stored messages in adapter._pending_messages but never consumed
them after normal (non-interrupted) completion. The consumption path
at line 5219 only checked pending messages when result.get('interrupted')
was True — since /queue deliberately doesn't interrupt, queued messages
were silently dropped.
Now checks adapter._pending_messages after both interrupted AND normal
completion. For queued messages (non-interrupt), the first response is
delivered before recursing to process the queued follow-up. Skips the
direct send when streaming already delivered the response.

The /v1/responses endpoint used an in-memory OrderedDict that lost
all conversation state on gateway restart. Replace with SQLite-backed
storage at ~/.hermes/response_store.db.
- Responses and conversation name mappings survive restarts
- Same LRU eviction behavior (configurable max_size)
- WAL mode for concurrent read performance
- Falls back to in-memory SQLite if disk path unavailable
- Conversation name→response_id mapping moved into the store
Cherry-picked from PR #2017 by @simpolism. Fixes#2011.
Discord slash commands in threads were missing thread_id in the
SessionSource, causing them to route to the parent channel session.
Commands like /usage and /reset returned wrong data or affected the
wrong session.
Detects discord.Thread channels in _build_slash_event and sets
chat_type='thread' with thread_id. Two tests added.
Five improvements to the /api/jobs endpoints:
1. Startup availability check — cron module imported once at class load,
endpoints return 501 if unavailable (not 500 per-request import error)
2. Input limits — name ≤ 200 chars, prompt ≤ 5000 chars, repeat must be
positive int
3. Update field whitelist — only name/schedule/prompt/deliver/skills/
repeat/enabled pass through to cron.jobs.update_job, preventing
arbitrary key injection
4. Deduplicated validation — _check_job_id and _check_jobs_available
helpers replace repeated boilerplate
5. 32 new tests covering all endpoints, validation, auth, and
cron-unavailable cases
The gateway created a fresh AIAgent per message, rebuilding the system
prompt (including memory, skills, context files) every turn. This broke
prompt prefix caching — providers like Anthropic charge ~10x more for
uncached prefixes.
Now caches AIAgent instances per session_key with a config signature.
The cached agent is reused across messages in the same session,
preserving the frozen system prompt and tool schemas. Cache is
invalidated when:
- Config changes (model, provider, toolsets, reasoning, ephemeral
prompt) — detected via signature mismatch
- /new, /reset, /clear — explicit session reset
- /model — global model change clears all cached agents
- /reasoning — global reasoning change clears all cached agents
Per-message state (callbacks, stream consumers, progress queues) is
set on the agent instance before each run_conversation() call.
This matches CLI behavior where a single AIAgent lives across all turns
in a session, with _cached_system_prompt built once and reused.
Fixes#1803. send_image_file, send_document, and send_video were missing
message_thread_id forwarding, causing them to fail in Telegram forum/supergroups
where thread_id is required. send_voice already handled this correctly. Adds
metadata parameter + message_thread_id to all three methods, and adds tests
covering the thread_id forwarding path.
Bare strings like "image", "audio", "document" were appended to
media_types, but downstream run.py checks mtype.startswith("image/")
and mtype.startswith("audio/"), which never matched. This caused all
Mattermost file attachments to be silently dropped from vision/STT
processing. Use the actual MIME type from file_info instead.
When streaming is enabled, the base adapter receives None from
_handle_message (already_sent=True) and cannot run auto-TTS for
voice input. The runner was unconditionally skipping voice input
TTS assuming the base adapter would handle it.
Now the runner takes over TTS responsibility when streaming has
already delivered the text response, so voice channel playback
works with both streaming on and off.
Streaming off behavior is unchanged (default already_sent=False
preserves the original code path exactly).

A single Telegram 409 Conflict from getUpdates permanently killed
Telegram polling with no recovery possible (retryable=False on
first occurrence). This is too aggressive for production use with
process supervisors.
Transient 409s are expected during:
- --replace handoffs where the old long-poll session lingers on
Telegram servers for a few seconds after SIGTERM
- systemd Restart=on-failure respawns that overlap with the dying
instance cleanup
Now _handle_polling_conflict() retries up to 3 times with a
10-second delay between attempts. The 30-second total retry window
lets stale server-side sessions expire. If all retries fail, the
error is still marked as permanently fatal — preserving the original
protection against genuine dual-instance conflicts.
Tests updated: split the single conflict test into two — one verifying
retry on transient conflict, one verifying fatal after exhausted
retries.
Closes#2296
- Convert ~~text~~ to ~text~ (MarkdownV2 strikethrough)
- Protect ||text|| from pipe escaping (MarkdownV2 spoiler)
- Preserve > at line start as blockquote instead of escaping it
- Update _strip_mdv2() to strip ~strikethrough~ and ||spoiler|| markers
- Add tests covering new formatting paths and edge cases
Place a sentinel in _running_agents immediately after the "already
running" guard check passes — before any await. Without this, the
numerous await points between the guard (line 1324) and agent
registration (track_agent at line 4790) create a window where a
second message for the same session can bypass the guard and start
a duplicate agent, corrupting the transcript.
The await gap includes: hook emissions, vision enrichment (external
API call), audio transcription (external API call), session hygiene
compression, and the run_in_executor call itself. For messages with
media attachments the window can be several seconds wide.
The sentinel is wrapped in try/finally so it is always cleaned up —
even if the handler raises or takes an early-return path. When the
real AIAgent is created, track_agent() overwrites the sentinel with
the actual instance (preserving interrupt support).
Also handles the edge case where a message arrives while the sentinel
is set but no real agent exists yet: the message is queued via the
adapter's pending-message mechanism instead of attempting to call
interrupt() on the sentinel object.
The gateway approval system previously intercepted bare 'yes'/'no' text
from the user's next message to approve/deny dangerous commands. This was
fragile and dangerous — if the agent asked a clarify question and the user
said 'yes' to answer it, the gateway would execute the pending dangerous
command instead. (Fixes#1888)
Changes:
- Remove bare text matching ('yes', 'y', 'approve', 'ok', etc.) from
_handle_message approval check
- Add /approve and /deny as gateway-only slash commands in the command
registry
- /approve supports scoping: /approve (one-time), /approve session,
/approve always (permanent)
- Add 5-minute timeout for stale approvals
- Gateway appends structured instructions to the agent response when a
dangerous command is pending, telling the user exactly how to respond
- 9 tests covering approve, deny, timeout, scoping, and verification
that bare 'yes' no longer triggers execution

* feat: OpenAI-compatible API server platform adapter
Salvaged from PR #956, updated for current main.
Adds an HTTP API server as a gateway platform adapter that exposes
hermes-agent via the OpenAI Chat Completions and Responses APIs.
Any OpenAI-compatible frontend (Open WebUI, LobeChat, LibreChat,
AnythingLLM, NextChat, ChatBox, etc.) can connect by pointing at
http://localhost:8642/v1.
Endpoints:
- POST /v1/chat/completions — stateless Chat Completions API
- POST /v1/responses — stateful Responses API with chaining
- GET /v1/responses/{id} — retrieve stored response
- DELETE /v1/responses/{id} — delete stored response
- GET /v1/models — list hermes-agent as available model
- GET /health — health check
Features:
- Real SSE streaming via stream_delta_callback (uses main's streaming)
- In-memory LRU response store for Responses API conversation chaining
- Named conversations via 'conversation' parameter
- Bearer token auth (optional, via API_SERVER_KEY)
- CORS support for browser-based frontends
- System prompt layering (frontend system messages on top of core)
- Real token usage tracking in responses
Integration points:
- Platform.API_SERVER in gateway/config.py
- _create_adapter() branch in gateway/run.py
- API_SERVER_* env vars in hermes_cli/config.py
- Env var overrides in gateway/config.py _apply_env_overrides()
Changes vs original PR #956:
- Removed streaming infrastructure (already on main via stream_consumer.py)
- Removed Telegram reply_to_mode (separate feature, not included)
- Updated _resolve_model() -> _resolve_gateway_model()
- Updated stream_callback -> stream_delta_callback
- Updated connect()/disconnect() to use _mark_connected()/_mark_disconnected()
- Adapted to current Platform enum (includes MATTERMOST, MATRIX, DINGTALK)
Tests: 72 new tests, all passing
Docs: API server guide, Open WebUI integration guide, env var reference
* feat(whatsapp): make reply prefix configurable via config.yaml
Reworked from PR #1764 (ifrederico) to use config.yaml instead of .env.
The WhatsApp bridge prepends a header to every outgoing message.
This was hardcoded to '⚕ *Hermes Agent*'. Users can now customize
or disable it via config.yaml:
whatsapp:
reply_prefix: '' # disable header
reply_prefix: '🤖 *My Bot*\n───\n' # custom prefix
How it works:
- load_gateway_config() reads whatsapp.reply_prefix from config.yaml
and stores it in PlatformConfig.extra['reply_prefix']
- WhatsAppAdapter reads it from config.extra at init
- When spawning bridge.js, the adapter passes it as
WHATSAPP_REPLY_PREFIX in the subprocess environment
- bridge.js handles undefined (default), empty (no header),
or custom values with \\n escape support
- Self-chat echo suppression uses the configured prefix
Also fixes _config_version: was 9 but ENV_VARS_BY_VERSION had a
key 10 (TAVILY_API_KEY), so existing users at v9 would never be
prompted for Tavily. Bumped to 10 to close the gap. Added a
regression test to prevent this from happening again.

and the config version gap discovery.

Add DingTalk as a messaging platform using the dingtalk-stream SDK
for real-time message reception via Stream Mode (no webhook needed).
Replies are sent via session webhook using markdown format.
Features:

- Text and rich text message support
- DM and group chat support
- Message deduplication with 5-minute window
- Auto-reconnection with exponential backoff
- Session webhook caching for reply routing
Configuration:

When a user sends a long message, Telegram clients split it into
multiple updates that arrive within milliseconds of each other.
Previously each chunk was dispatched independently — the first would
start the agent, and subsequent chunks would interrupt or queue as
separate turns, causing the agent to only see part of the message.
Add text message batching to TelegramAdapter following the same pattern
as the existing photo burst batching:
- _enqueue_text_event() buffers text by session key, concatenating
chunks that arrive in rapid succession
- _flush_text_batch() dispatches the combined message after a 0.6s
quiet period (configurable via HERMES_TELEGRAM_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS)
- Timer resets on each new chunk, so all parts of a split arrive
before the batch is dispatched
Reported by NulledVector on Discord.
_bot_participated_threads was an in-memory set — lost on every restart.
After restart, the bot forgot which threads it was active in, requiring
fresh @mentions and potentially creating duplicate threads instead of
continuing existing conversations.
Changes:
- Persist thread IDs to ~/.hermes/discord_threads.json
- Load on adapter init, save on every new thread participation
- _track_thread() replaces direct .add() calls for atomic persist
- Cap at 500 tracked threads to prevent unbounded growth
- /thread slash command also tracks participation
- 7 new tests covering persistence, restart survival, corruption
recovery, cap enforcement
Small models (7B-14B) can't reliably use MEDIA: or IMAGE: syntax. This
adds extract_local_files() to BasePlatformAdapter that regex-detects
bare local file paths ending in image/video extensions, validates them
with os.path.isfile(), and delivers them as native platform attachments.
Hardened over the original PR:
- Code-block exclusion: paths inside fenced blocks and inline code are
skipped so code samples are never mutilated
- URL rejection: negative lookbehind prevents matching path segments
inside HTTP URLs
- Relative path rejection: ./foo.png no longer matches
- Tilde path cleanup: raw ~/... form is removed from response text
- Deduplication by expanded path
- Added .webm to _VIDEO_EXTS
- Fallback to send_document for unrecognized media extensions

* refactor: centralize slash command registry
Replace 7+ scattered command definition sites with a single
CommandDef registry in hermes_cli/commands.py. All downstream
consumers now derive from this registry:
- CLI process_command() resolves aliases via resolve_command()
- Gateway _known_commands uses GATEWAY_KNOWN_COMMANDS frozenset
- Gateway help text generated by gateway_help_lines()
- Telegram BotCommands generated by telegram_bot_commands()
- Slack subcommand map generated by slack_subcommand_map()
Adding a command or alias is now a one-line change to
COMMAND_REGISTRY instead of touching 6+ files.
Bugfixes included:
- Telegram now registers /rollback, /background (were missing)
- Slack now has /voice, /update, /reload-mcp (were missing)
- Gateway duplicate 'reasoning' dispatch (dead code) removed
- Gateway help text can no longer drift from CLI help
Backwards-compatible: COMMANDS and COMMANDS_BY_CATEGORY dicts are
rebuilt from the registry, so existing imports work unchanged.
* docs: update developer docs for centralized command registry
Update AGENTS.md with full 'Slash Command Registry' and 'Adding a
Slash Command' sections covering CommandDef fields, registry helpers,
and the one-line alias workflow.
Also update:
- CONTRIBUTING.md: commands.py description
- website/docs/reference/slash-commands.md: reference central registry
- docs/plans/centralize-command-registry.md: mark COMPLETED
- plans/checkpoint-rollback.md: reference new pattern
- hermes-agent-dev skill: architecture table
* chore: remove stale plan docs

The system unit had the same TimeoutStopSec=15 and could benefit
from the same 60s timeout for clean shutdown. Also adds a regression
test for the system unit.

* feat(skills): add blender-mcp optional skill for 3D modeling
Control a running Blender instance from Hermes via socket connection
to the blender-mcp addon (port 9876). Supports creating 3D objects,
materials, animations, and running arbitrary bpy code.
Placed in optional-skills/ since it requires Blender 4.3+ desktop
with a third-party addon manually started each session.
* feat(acp): support slash commands in ACP adapter (#1532)
Adds /help, /model, /tools, /context, /reset, /compact, /version
to the ACP adapter (VS Code, Zed, JetBrains). Commands are handled
directly in the server without instantiating the TUI — each command
queries agent/session state and returns plain text.
Unrecognized /commands fall through to the LLM as normal messages.
/model uses detect_provider_for_model() for auto-detection when
switching models, matching the CLI and gateway behavior.

skip_attachments: true
Based on PR #1521 by @an420eth, changed from env var to config.yaml

* docs: document skip_attachments option for email adapter
* fix(telegram): retry on transient TLS failures during connect and send
Add exponential-backoff retry (3 attempts) around initialize() to
handle transient TLS resets during gateway startup. Also catches
TimedOut and OSError in addition to NetworkError.
Add exponential-backoff retry (3 attempts) around send_message() for

* feat: permissive block_anchor thresholds and unicode normalization (#1539)
Salvaged from PR #1528 by an420eth. Closes#517.
Improves _strategy_block_anchor in fuzzy_match.py:
- Add unicode normalization (smart quotes, em/en-dashes, ellipsis,
non-breaking spaces → ASCII) so LLM-produced unicode artifacts
don't break anchor line matching
- Lower thresholds: 0.10 for unique matches (was 0.70), 0.30 for
multiple candidates — if first/last lines match exactly, the
block is almost certainly correct
- Use original (non-normalized) content for offset calculation to
preserve correct character positions
Tested: 3 new scenarios fixed (em-dash anchors, non-breaking space
anchors, very-low-similarity unique matches), zero regressions on
all 9 existing fuzzy match tests.

* feat(cli): add file path autocomplete in the input prompt (#1545)
When typing a path-like token (./ ../ ~/ / or containing /),
the CLI now shows filesystem completions in the dropdown menu.
Directories show a trailing slash and 'dir' label; files show
their size. Completions are case-insensitive and capped at 30
entries.
Triggered by tokens like:
edit ./src/ma → shows ./src/main.py, ./src/manifest.json, ...
check ~/doc → shows ~/docs/, ~/documents/, ...
read /etc/hos → shows /etc/hosts, /etc/hostname, ...
open tools/reg → shows tools/registry.py
Slash command autocomplete (/help, /model, etc.) is unaffected —
it still triggers when the input starts with /.
Inspired by OpenCode PR #145 (file path completion menu).
Implementation:
- hermes_cli/commands.py: _extract_path_word() detects path-like
tokens, _path_completions() yields filesystem Completions with
size labels, get_completions() routes to paths vs slash commands
- tests/hermes_cli/test_path_completion.py: 26 tests covering
path extraction, prefix filtering, directory markers, home
expansion, case-insensitivity, integration with slash commands
* feat(privacy): redact PII from LLM context when privacy.redact_pii is enabled
Add privacy.redact_pii config option (boolean, default false). When
enabled, the gateway redacts personally identifiable information from
the system prompt before sending it to the LLM provider:
- Phone numbers (user IDs on WhatsApp/Signal) → hashed to user_<sha256>
- User IDs → hashed to user_<sha256>
- Chat IDs → numeric portion hashed, platform prefix preserved
- Home channel IDs → hashed
- Names/usernames → NOT affected (user-chosen, publicly visible)
Hashes are deterministic (same user → same hash) so the model can
still distinguish users in group chats. Routing and delivery use
the original values internally — redaction only affects LLM context.

* fix(privacy): skip PII redaction on Discord/Slack (mentions need real IDs)
Discord uses <@user_id> for mentions and Slack uses <@U12345> — the LLM
needs the real ID to tag users. Redaction now only applies to WhatsApp,
Signal, and Telegram where IDs are pure routing metadata.
Add 4 platform-specific tests covering Discord, WhatsApp, Signal, Slack.
* feat: smart approvals + /stop command (inspired by OpenAI Codex)
* feat: smart approvals — LLM-based risk assessment for dangerous commands
Adds a 'smart' approval mode that uses the auxiliary LLM to assess
whether a flagged command is genuinely dangerous or a false positive,
auto-approving low-risk commands without prompting the user.
Inspired by OpenAI Codex's Smart Approvals guardian subagent
(openai/codex#13860).
Config (config.yaml):
approvals:
mode: manual # manual (default), smart, off
Modes:
- manual — current behavior, always prompt the user
- smart — aux LLM evaluates risk: APPROVE (auto-allow), DENY (block),
or ESCALATE (fall through to manual prompt)
- off — skip all approval prompts (equivalent to --yolo)
When smart mode auto-approves, the pattern gets session-level approval
so subsequent uses of the same pattern don't trigger another LLM call.
When it denies, the command is blocked without user prompt. When
uncertain, it escalates to the normal manual approval flow.
The LLM prompt is carefully scoped: it sees only the command text and
the flagged reason, assesses actual risk vs false positive, and returns
a single-word verdict.
* feat: make smart approval model configurable via config.yaml
Adds auxiliary.approval section to config.yaml with the same
provider/model/base_url/api_key pattern as other aux tasks (vision,
web_extract, compression, etc.).
Config:
auxiliary:
approval:
provider: auto
model: '' # fast/cheap model recommended
base_url: ''
api_key: ''
Bridged to env vars in both CLI and gateway paths so the aux client
picks them up automatically.
* feat: add /stop command to kill all background processes
Adds a /stop slash command that kills all running background processes
at once. Currently users have to process(list) then process(kill) for
each one individually.
Inspired by OpenAI Codex's separation of interrupt (Ctrl+C stops current
turn) from /stop (cleans up background processes). See openai/codex#14602.
Ctrl+C continues to only interrupt the active agent turn — background
dev servers, watchers, etc. are preserved. /stop is the explicit way
to clean them all up.
* feat: first-class plugin architecture + hide status bar cost by default (#1544)
The persistent status bar now shows context %, token counts, and
duration but NOT $ cost by default. Cost display is opt-in via:
display:
show_cost: true
in config.yaml, or: hermes config set display.show_cost true
The /usage command still shows full cost breakdown since the user
explicitly asked for it — this only affects the always-visible bar.
Status bar without cost:
⚕ claude-sonnet-4 │ 12K/200K │ 6% │ 15m
Status bar with show_cost: true:
⚕ claude-sonnet-4 │ 12K/200K │ 6% │ $0.06 │ 15m
* feat: improve memory prioritization + aggressive skill updates (inspired by OpenAI Codex)
* feat: improve memory prioritization — user preferences over procedural knowledge
Inspired by OpenAI Codex's memory prompt improvements (openai/codex#14493)
which focus memory writes on user preferences and recurring patterns
rather than procedural task details.
Key insight: 'Optimize for reducing future user steering — the most
valuable memory prevents the user from having to repeat themselves.'
Changes:
- MEMORY_GUIDANCE (prompt_builder.py): added prioritization hierarchy
and the core principle about reducing user steering
- MEMORY_SCHEMA (memory_tool.py): reordered WHEN TO SAVE list to put
corrections first, added explicit PRIORITY guidance
- Memory nudge (run_agent.py): now asks specifically about preferences,
corrections, and workflow patterns instead of generic 'anything'
- Memory flush (run_agent.py): now instructs to prioritize user
preferences and corrections over task-specific details
* feat: more aggressive skill creation and update prompting
Press harder on skill updates — the agent should proactively patch
skills when it encounters issues during use, not wait to be asked.
Changes:
- SKILLS_GUIDANCE: 'consider saving' → 'save'; added explicit instruction
to patch skills immediately when found outdated/wrong
- Skills header: added instruction to update loaded skills before finishing
if they had missing steps or wrong commands
- Skill nudge: more assertive ('save the approach' not 'consider saving'),
now also prompts for updating existing skills used in the task
- Skill nudge interval: lowered default from 15 to 10 iterations
- skill_manage schema: added 'patch it immediately' to update triggers
* feat: first-class plugin architecture (#1555)
Plugin system for extending Hermes with custom tools, hooks, and
integrations — no source code changes required.
Core system (hermes_cli/plugins.py):
- Plugin discovery from ~/.hermes/plugins/, .hermes/plugins/, and
pip entry_points (hermes_agent.plugins group)
- PluginContext with register_tool() and register_hook()
- 6 lifecycle hooks: pre/post tool_call, pre/post llm_call,
on_session_start/end
- Namespace package handling for relative imports in plugins
- Graceful error isolation — broken plugins never crash the agent
Integration (model_tools.py):
- Plugin discovery runs after built-in + MCP tools
- Plugin tools bypass toolset filter via get_plugin_tool_names()
- Pre/post tool call hooks fire in handle_function_call()
CLI:
- /plugins command shows loaded plugins, tool counts, status
- Added to COMMANDS dict for autocomplete
Docs:
- Getting started guide (build-a-hermes-plugin.md) — full tutorial
building a calculator plugin step by step
- Reference page (features/plugins.md) — quick overview + tables
- Covers: file structure, schemas, handlers, hooks, data files,
bundled skills, env var gating, pip distribution, common mistakes
Tests: 16 tests covering discovery, loading, hooks, tool visibility.
* feat: add /bg as alias for /background slash command
Adds /bg alias across CLI, gateway, and Slack platform adapter.
Updates help text, autocomplete, known_commands set, and dispatch
logic. Includes tests for the new alias.
* docs: add plan for centralized slash command registry
Scopes a refactor to replace 7+ scattered command definition sites
with a single CommandDef registry in hermes_cli/commands.py. Includes
derived helper functions for gateway help text, Telegram BotCommands,
Slack subcommand maps, and alias resolution.
Documents current drift (Telegram missing /rollback + /background,
Slack missing /voice + /update, gateway dead code) that the refactor
fixes for free.

Discord uses <@user_id> for mentions and Slack uses <@U12345> — the LLM
needs the real ID to tag users. Redaction now only applies to WhatsApp,
Signal, and Telegram where IDs are pure routing metadata.
Add 4 platform-specific tests covering Discord, WhatsApp, Signal, Slack.
Add privacy.redact_pii config option (boolean, default false). When
enabled, the gateway redacts personally identifiable information from
the system prompt before sending it to the LLM provider:
- Phone numbers (user IDs on WhatsApp/Signal) → hashed to user_<sha256>
- User IDs → hashed to user_<sha256>
- Chat IDs → numeric portion hashed, platform prefix preserved
- Home channel IDs → hashed
- Names/usernames → NOT affected (user-chosen, publicly visible)
Hashes are deterministic (same user → same hash) so the model can
still distinguish users in group chats. Routing and delivery use
the original values internally — redaction only affects LLM context.

Core fix: Honcho tool calls in a multi-session gateway could route to
the wrong session because honcho_tools.py relied on process-global
state. Now threads session context through the call chain:
AIAgent._invoke_tool() → handle_function_call() → registry.dispatch()
→ handler **kw → _resolve_session_context()
Changes:
- Add _resolve_session_context() to prefer per-call context over globals
- Plumb honcho_manager + honcho_session_key through handle_function_call
- Add sync_honcho=False to run_conversation() for synthetic flush turns
- Pass honcho_session_key through gateway memory flush lifecycle
- Harden gateway PID detection when /proc cmdline is unreadable
- Make interrupt test scripts import-safe for pytest-xdist
- Wrap BibTeX examples in Jekyll raw blocks for docs build
- Fix thread-order-dependent assertion in client lifecycle test
- Expand Honcho docs: session isolation, lifecycle, routing internals
Dropped from original PR:
- Indentation change in _create_request_openai_client that would move
client creation inside the lock (causes unnecessary contention)

default group and channel sessions to per-user isolation, allow opting back into shared room sessions via config.yaml, and document Discord gateway routing and session behavior.
Include participant identifiers in non-DM session keys when available so group and channel conversations no longer share one transcript across every active user in the chat.
Add _ensure_ssl_certs() that discovers CA certificate bundles before any
HTTP library is imported. Resolution order:
1. Python's ssl.get_default_verify_paths()
2. certifi (if installed)
3. Common distro/macOS paths
Only sets SSL_CERT_FILE if not already present in the environment.
Wrapped in a function (called immediately) to avoid polluting module
namespace.
Based on PR #1151 by sylvesterroos.
Restore local STT command fallback for voice transcription, detect whisper and ffmpeg in common local install paths, and avoid bogus no-provider messaging when only a backend-specific key is missing.
Complete the YAML null handling for all three SessionResetPolicy fields.
at_hour and idle_minutes already had null coalescing; mode was still
using data.get('mode', 'both') which returns None when the key exists
with an explicit null value.
Add regression test covering all-null input.
Based on PR #1120 by stablegenius49.
Two changes to align Discord behavior with Slack:
1. Auto-thread on @mention (default: true)
- When someone @mentions the bot in a server channel, a thread is
automatically created from their message and the response goes there.
- Each thread gets its own isolated session (like Slack).
- Configurable via discord.auto_thread in config.yaml (default: true)
or DISCORD_AUTO_THREAD env var (env takes precedence).
- DMs and existing threads are unaffected.
2. Skip @mention in bot-participated threads
- Once the bot has responded in a thread (auto-created or manually
entered), subsequent messages in that thread no longer require
@mention. Users can just type normally.
- Tracked via in-memory set (_bot_participated_threads). After a
gateway restart, users need to @mention once to re-establish.
- Threads the bot hasn't participated in still require @mention.
Config change:
discord:
auto_thread: true # new, added to DEFAULT_CONFIG
Tests: 7 new tests covering auto-thread default, disable, bot thread
participation tracking, and mention skip logic. All 903 gateway tests pass.
When a cronjob is created from within a Telegram or Slack thread,
deliver=origin was posting to the parent channel instead of the thread.
Root cause: the gateway never set HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID in the
session environment, so cronjob_tools.py could not capture thread_id
into the job's origin metadata — even though the scheduler already
reads origin.get('thread_id').
Fix:
- gateway/run.py: set HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID when thread_id is
present on the session context, and clear it in _clear_session_env
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: read HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID into origin
Closes#1219
Add an explicit messaging-extra install hint to the missing PyNaCl/davey error path, cover it with a voice-channel join regression test, and skip the low-level NaCl packet tests when PyNaCl is not installed locally.
Tests cover the actual code paths changed in voice fixes:
_on_packet DAVE passthrough (8 tests):
- Known SSRC + DAVE decrypt success → buffered
- Unknown SSRC + DAVE → skip DAVE, passthrough to Opus
- DAVE "Unencrypted" error → passthrough, not dropped
- DAVE other error → packet dropped
- No DAVE session → direct decode
- Bot's own SSRC → ignored (echo prevention)
- Multiple SSRCs → separate buffers
SSRC auto-mapping (6 tests):
- Single allowed user → auto-mapped
- Multiple allowed users → no auto-map
- No allowlist → sole non-bot member inferred
- Unallowed user → rejected
- Only bot in channel → no map
- Auto-map persists across checks
Buffer lifecycle (4 tests):
- Known SSRC completed utterance
- Short buffer ignored
- Recent audio waits
- Stale unknown buffer discarded
TTS playback (10 tests):
- play_tts calls play_in_voice_channel in VC
- play_tts falls through when not in VC
- play_tts wrong channel no match
- Voice input dedup (runner skips)
- Text + voice_mode combinations
- Error/empty response skipped
- Agent TTS tool dedup
UDP keepalive (2 tests):
- Interval within bounds
- Silence frame actually sent via send_packet
play_tts was returning success without playing anything when bot was
in a voice channel. Now it calls play_in_voice_channel directly.
Simplified skip_double dedup: base adapter handles voice input TTS
via play_tts (which now works for VC), runner skips to avoid double.
Track adapter background message-processing tasks, cancel them during gateway shutdown, and interrupt running agents before disconnecting adapters. This prevents old gateway instances from continuing in-flight work after stop/replace, which was contributing to the restart-time task continuation/flicker behavior reported in #1414. Adds regression coverage for adapter task cancellation and shutdown interrupts.
Add regression coverage for non-album Telegram photo burst batching, photo follow-ups that should queue without interrupting active runs, and the gateway priority-interrupt path for photo events.
Update interrupt-key expectations for namespaced DM session keys and add a regression test that different DM chat IDs produce distinct gateway sessions.
- bridge stt.enabled from config.yaml into gateway runtime config
- preserve the flag in GatewayConfig serialization
- skip gateway voice transcription when STT is disabled
- add regression tests for config loading and disabled transcription flow
Salvaged from PR #1115 onto current main by reusing the shared
Discord file-attachment helper for local video and document sends,
including file_name support for documents and regression coverage.
Add regression coverage for gateway and CLI /retry behavior so retried messages replace the original user turn instead of accumulating duplicate user entries in history.
Salvaged PR #1052 onto current main with the contributor commit preserved plus a small follow-up for current-main conflict resolution and safe command quoting.
Cancel any queued media-group flush tasks during Telegram adapter disconnect
and clear the buffered events map so shutdown can't leave a pending album
flush behind. Add a regression test covering disconnect before the debounce
window expires.
When shutil.which('hermes') returns None, _resolve_hermes_bin() now tries
sys.executable -m hermes_cli.main as a fallback. This handles setups where
Hermes is launched via a venv or module invocation and the hermes symlink is
not on PATH for the gateway process.
Fixes#1049
Telegram albums arrive as multiple updates with a shared media_group_id.
Previously each image triggered a separate MessageEvent, causing the agent
to interrupt itself when describing the first image.
- Add 0.8s debounce window for media group items
- Merge attachments into single MessageEvent
- Add regression test for photo album buffering
Salvages the two still-relevant fixes from PR #993 onto current main:
- use a 3-tuple LOCAL delivery key so explicit/local-origin targets are not duplicated
- shut down the previous agent-loop ThreadPoolExecutor when resizing the global pool
Adds regression tests for both behaviors.
Prevent gateway.platforms.discord from crashing at import time when discord.py is unavailable. Python 3.11 eagerly evaluates annotations, so using discord.Interaction and similar annotations caused an AttributeError after the optional import fallback set discord=None. Add postponed annotation evaluation and a regression test covering import without discord installed.
- store gateway PID metadata and validate the live process before trusting gateway.pid
- auto-refresh outdated systemd user units before start/restart so installs pick up --replace fixes
- sweep stray manual gateway processes after service stops
- add regression tests for PID validation and service drift recovery
Add regression coverage for backfilling NULL gateway session models in SQLite, preserving existing models, and forwarding the resolved agent model through SessionStore updates.
Add regression coverage for the standalone email send path and pass an explicit default SSL context to STARTTLS for certificate verification, matching the gateway email adapter hardening salvaged from PR #994.
Tests were still mocking imap.search() and imap.fetch() but the
implementation was changed to use imap.uid("search", ...) and
imap.uid("fetch", ...) for proper UID-based IMAP operations.
- keep CLI voice prefixes API-local while storing the original user text
- persist explicit gateway off state and restore adapter auto-TTS suppression on restart
- add regression coverage for both behaviors
1. Anthropic + ElevenLabs TTS silence: forward full response to TTS
callback for non-streaming providers (choices first, then native
content blocks fallback).
2. Subprocess timeout kill: play_audio_file now kills the process on
TimeoutExpired instead of leaving zombie processes.
3. Discord disconnect cleanup: leave all voice channels before closing
the client to prevent leaked state.
4. Audio stream leak: close InputStream if stream.start() fails.
5. Race condition: read/write _on_silence_stop under lock in audio
callback thread.
6. _vprint force=True: show API error, retry, and truncation messages
even during streaming TTS.
7. _refresh_level lock: read _voice_recording under _voice_lock.
The mock's app_commands SimpleNamespace lacked choices and Choice attrs,
causing xdist test ordering failures when this mock loaded before
test_discord_slash_commands.
1. Gate _streaming_api_call to chat_completions mode only — Anthropic and
Codex fall back to _interruptible_api_call. Preserve Anthropic base_url
across all client rebuild paths (interrupt, fallback, 401 refresh).
2. Discord VC synthetic events now use chat_type="channel" instead of
defaulting to "dm" — prevents session bleed into DM context.
Authorization runs before echoing transcript. Sanitize @everyone/@here
in voice transcripts.
3. CLI voice prefix ("[Voice input...]") is now API-call-local only —
stripped from returned history so it never persists to session DB or
resumed sessions.
4. /voice off now disables base adapter auto-TTS via _auto_tts_disabled_chats
set — voice input no longer triggers TTS when voice mode is off.
Remove web UI gateway (web.py, tests, docs, toolset, env vars, Platform.WEB
enum) per maintainer request — Nous is building their own official chat UI.
Fix 1: Replace sd.wait() with polling pattern in play_audio_file() to prevent
indefinite hang when audio device stalls (consistent with play_beep()).
Fix 2: Use importlib.util.find_spec() for faster_whisper/openai availability
checks instead of module-level imports that trigger heavy native library
loading (CUDA/cuDNN) at import time.
Fix 3: Remove inspect.signature() hack in _send_voice_reply() — add **kwargs
to Telegram send_voice() so all adapters accept metadata uniformly.
Fix 4: Make session loading resilient to removed platform enum values — skip
entries with unknown platforms instead of crashing the entire gateway.
Merge main's faster-whisper (local, free) with our Groq support into a
unified three-provider STT pipeline: local > groq > openai.
Provider priority ensures free options are tried first. Each provider
has its own transcriber function with model auto-correction, env-
overridable endpoints, and proper error handling.
74 tests cover the full provider matrix, fallback chains, model
correction, config loading, validation edge cases, and dispatch.
When bound to 127.0.0.1, only show localhost URL instead of listing
unreachable network interfaces. Add hint about WEB_UI_HOST=0.0.0.0
for phone/tablet access. Add VPN/multi-interface and token exposure
tests (11 new tests).
- Path traversal sanitization (Path.name strips ../)
- Media endpoint authentication (401 without token, 404 on traversal)
- hmac.compare_digest usage verification (no == for tokens)
- DOMPurify XSS prevention in HTML template
- Default bind 127.0.0.1 (adapter and config)
- /remote-control token hiding in group chats
- Opus find_library instead of hardcoded paths
- Opus decode error logging (no silent swallow)
- Interrupt _vprint force=True on all 6 calls
- Anthropic interrupt handler in both API call paths
- Update test_web_defaults for new 127.0.0.1 default
1. VoiceReceiver.stop() now acquires _lock before clearing shared state
to prevent race with _on_packet on the socket reader thread
2. _packet_debug_count moved from class-level to instance-level to avoid
cross-instance race condition in multi-guild setups
3. play_in_voice_channel uses asyncio.get_running_loop() instead of
deprecated asyncio.get_event_loop()
4. _send_voice_reply uses uuid for filenames instead of time-based names
that can collide when two replies happen in the same second
5. Voice timeout now notifies runner via _on_voice_disconnect callback
so runner cleans up _voice_mode state (prevents orphaned TTS replies)
6. play_in_voice_channel adds PLAYBACK_TIMEOUT (120s) to prevent
infinite blocking when FFmpeg callback is never called
7. _send_voice_reply moves temp file cleanup to finally block so files
are always cleaned up even when send_voice/play raises
8. Base adapter auto-TTS wraps play_tts in try/finally with os.remove
to clean up generated audio files after playback
18 new tests (120 total voice tests)
- Add lock protection around VoiceReceiver buffer writes in _on_packet
to prevent race condition with check_silence on different threads
- Wire _voice_input_callback BEFORE join_voice_channel to avoid
losing voice input during the join window
- Add try/except around leave_voice_channel to ensure state cleanup
(voice_mode, callback) even if leave raises an exception
- Guard against empty text after markdown stripping in base.py auto-TTS
- Add 11 tests proving each bug and verifying the fix
When bot is in a Discord voice channel, both base auto-TTS and Discord
play_tts override skip audio. The skip_double guard was also blocking
the runner's _send_voice_reply, resulting in zero audio output in VC.
Now skip_double is overridden when the bot is actively connected to a
voice channel, allowing play_in_voice_channel to handle TTS.
Add comprehensive test matrix covering all platform x input x mode
combinations with full decision table documentation.
- Update TestAutoVoiceReply to include skip_double logic: voice input
is handled by base adapter auto-TTS, gateway runner skips to prevent
duplicate audio
- Add TestDiscordPlayTtsSkip: verifies Discord adapter skips play_tts
when bot is in a voice channel (VC playback handled by runner)
- Add TestWebPlayTts: verifies Web adapter sends invisible play_audio
instead of voice bubble
play_tts base class forwards metadata via **kwargs to send_voice,
but Discord and Slack adapters did not accept extra keyword arguments,
causing TypeError and silent message handling failure.
Also fix test_web_defaults to patch correct env var (WEB_UI_TOKEN).
- Register /voice as Discord slash command with mode choices
- Fix _send_voice_reply to handle adapters that don't accept metadata
parameter (Discord) by inspecting the method signature at runtime
- /voice on: reply with voice when user sends voice messages
- /voice tts: reply with voice to all messages
- /voice off: disable, text-only replies
- /voice status: show current mode
- Per-chat state persisted to gateway_voice_mode.json
- Dedup: skips auto-reply if agent already called text_to_speech tool
- drop_pending_updates=True to ignore stale Telegram messages on restart
- 25 tests covering command handler, reply logic, and edge cases
