xAI's /v1/responses and /v1/chat/completions endpoints reject tool schemas
whose enum values contain a forward slash with a generic HTTP 400 'Invalid
arguments passed to the model.' before any token is emitted — the schema
compiler trips on the '/' character regardless of where it appears.
Most commonly hit by MCP-derived tools whose enum lists HuggingFace model
IDs ('Qwen/Qwen3.5-0.8B', 'openai/gpt-oss-20b') or owner/name environment
identifiers.
Mirrors the existing strip_pattern_and_format sanitizer (PR for #27197).
The new strip_slash_enum walks tool parameters and drops the entire enum
keyword when any value contains '/' — keeping it partial would still 400
since xAI's failure is all-or-nothing on the enum. The field description
still reaches the model so the prompting hint is preserved.
Wired in at both code paths for parity:
- agent/chat_completion_helpers.py (main agent xAI Responses path)
- agent/auxiliary_client.py (aux client xAI Responses path, matching
the same parity guarantee 2fae8fba9 established for pattern/format)
Salvaged from #28021 by @Slimydog21 — contributor's branch was severely
stale (would have reverted ~5000 LOC across azure/kanban/i18n); fix
re-applied surgically on current main with their sanitizer + 9 tests
preserved verbatim. Author noreply email used (original was a Mac
hostname leak).
When a Codex OAuth refresh token is permanently invalidated (HTTP 400/401/403,
token revoked or reused), _mark_exhausted was called but auth.json was left with
the dead credentials. On the next session, _seed_from_singletons re-read
auth.json and re-seeded the pool with the same revoked token, triggering the
same terminal failure in a loop.
Add _is_terminal_codex_oauth_refresh_error to auth.py and a matching quarantine
block in _refresh_entry: when a terminal error is detected and auth.json holds
no newer tokens, clear access_token/refresh_token from auth.json and remove all
device_code-sourced pool entries from memory. Mirrors the Nous quarantine added
in c90556262 and the xAI quarantine in #28116.
Also add a pre-refresh sync from auth.json before calling refresh_codex_oauth_pure,
matching the xAI and Nous patterns, to avoid refresh_token_reused races when
multiple Hermes processes share the same auth.json singleton.
Salvaged from #27911 by @EloquentBrush0x — contributor's branch was severely

fix re-applied surgically on current main with their predicate and tests preserved.
PR #28102 made the summary-failure abort path the unconditional default,
changing established behavior. Gate it behind config.yaml flag
`compression.abort_on_summary_failure` (default False = historical
fallback-placeholder behavior).
- hermes_cli/config.py: new `compression.abort_on_summary_failure` key,
default False, documented inline.
- agent/agent_init.py: read the flag from compression config and pass to
ContextCompressor.
- agent/context_compressor.py: `__init__` accepts `abort_on_summary_failure`
(default False). `compress()` failure branch gates the abort on the
flag; when False, falls through to the restored legacy fallback path
(static "summary unavailable" placeholder + drop middle window).
- tests: restore original fallback expectations as default; add new
TestAbortOnSummaryFailure class for the opt-in mode.
Gateway/CLI plumbing (force=True on /compress, hygiene/handler abort
detection, locale `gateway.compress.aborted` key) from PR #28102 stays
intact — those paths only fire when `_last_compress_aborted` is True,
which now only happens when the flag is enabled.
When refresh_xai_oauth_pure raises a terminal error (HTTP 400/401/403,
i.e. revoked or reused refresh token), _refresh_entry's existing race-
recovery path re-syncs from auth.json and returns if another process has
already rotated the tokens. If auth.json still holds the same stale
token pair, the function fell through to _mark_exhausted — leaving the
dead credentials in auth.json. On the next Hermes startup _seed_from_singletons
re-seeded the pool from those stale tokens, causing the same failure loop
on every session.
Fix: after the auth.json re-sync check in the xAI-oauth error handler,
detect terminal errors with the new _is_terminal_xai_oauth_refresh_error
helper and apply a quarantine:
- Clear access_token and refresh_token from providers["xai-oauth"]["tokens"]
in auth.json so they are not re-seeded.
- Write a last_auth_error entry for hermes doctor / auth status diagnostics.
- Remove all loopback_pkce entries from the in-memory pool so the current
session stops retrying with the dead credentials.
Mirrors the identical quarantine already in place for Nous OAuth
(c90556262).
Closes the parity gap introduced when c90556262 added Nous-only terminal
error handling without a corresponding xAI-oauth path.
When xAI returns a subscription/entitlement error through an SSE
``type=error`` frame, ``_StreamErrorEvent`` is raised with
``status_code=None``. This caused ``_classify_by_status`` (step 2 of
``classify_api_error``) to be skipped entirely, and the Grok-specific
phrases ("do not have an active Grok subscription", "out of available
resources") appeared in none of the message-pattern lists. The error
fell through to ``FailoverReason.unknown (retryable=True)``, burning
``max_retries`` on every affected X Premium+ / SuperGrok user before
the agent stopped — and ``_is_entitlement_failure`` was never called
because it only fires under ``FailoverReason.auth``.
The HTTP 403 path already handled this correctly (``_classify_by_status``
returns ``auth/non-retryable`` for 403). Add an explicit pattern block
at step 1 (highest priority, before the ``status_code`` guard) so both
code paths route to ``FailoverReason.auth, retryable=False,
should_fallback=True`` — matching the 403 path exactly.
Add three regression tests in ``Fix D`` section of
``test_codex_xai_oauth_recovery.py``:
- primary "do not have an active Grok subscription" phrase
- "out of available resources" + "grok" variant
- unrelated ``_StreamErrorEvent`` must not be reclassified
xAI is a first-class provider in hermes-agent with its own credential
pool entry (XAI_API_KEY / xai-oauth). API keys follow the format
xai-<60+ alphanumeric chars> and were absent from _PREFIX_PATTERNS in
agent/redact.py.
When a key appears raw in log output, tool results, or error messages,
it passed through completely unmasked. The ENV-assignment and Bearer
header patterns catch the most common cases, but a raw token in a
stack trace or debug print had no protection.
Verified before fix:
redact_sensitive_text("using key xai-ABCD...rstu to call xAI", force=True)
# "using key xai-ABCD...rstu to call xAI" <- exposed
After fix:
# "using key xai-AB...rstu to call xAI" <- masked
Five unit tests added to TestXaiToken covering bare token masking,
env assignment, short-prefix false positive, company name false
positive, and visible prefix in masked output.
When auxiliary compression's summary generation returns None (aux model
errored, returned non-JSON, timed out, etc.) the compressor previously
still dropped every middle message between compress_start..compress_end
and replaced them with a static 'Summary generation was unavailable'
placeholder. The session kept going but the user silently lost N turns
of context for nothing.
New behavior: on summary failure, compress() aborts entirely — returns
the input messages unchanged and sets _last_compress_aborted=True. The
existing _summary_failure_cooldown_until gate (30-60s) keeps the aux
model from being burned on every turn. Auto-compress callers detect
the no-op (len(after) == len(before)) and stop looping. The chat is
'frozen' at its current size until the next /compress or /new.
Manual /compress (CLI + gateway) now passes force=True which clears
the cooldown so users can retry immediately after an auto-abort. If
the manual retry also fails, the user gets a visible warning telling
them nothing was dropped and how to retry.
- agent/context_compressor.py: compress() gains force= kwarg; failure
branch sets _last_compress_aborted and returns messages unchanged
instead of inserting placeholder.
- run_agent.py: _compress_context() detects abort, surfaces warning,
skips session-rotation entirely, returns messages unchanged.
- cli.py + gateway/run.py: manual /compress paths pass force=True.
- gateway/run.py: hygiene + /compress handlers detect _last_compress_aborted
and emit the new 'Compression aborted' warning (gateway.compress.aborted)
instead of the old 'N historical messages were removed' message.
- locales/*.yaml: new gateway.compress.aborted key in all 16 locales.
- tests: updated to assert the abort contract (messages preserved,
compression_count not incremented, abort flag set, no placeholder
leaked). New test_force_true_bypasses_failure_cooldown covers the
manual-retry path.
xAI's /responses endpoint rejects tool schemas that contain pattern or
format JSON Schema keywords with HTTP 400. chat_completion_helpers.py
already strips these for the main-agent xAI/xai-oauth path (lines
294-302), but _CodexCompletionsAdapter.create() — used for every xAI
OAuth auxiliary call (kanban decomposer, profile describer, etc.) —
passed raw tool schemas without sanitization.
MCP tools that carry pattern/format keywords (common for string fields)
silently caused every auxiliary call over xAI OAuth to fail with an
HTTP 400, while the main agent worked fine. Parity fix: call
strip_pattern_and_format() on the tool list before converting to
Responses API format, matching the main-agent guarantee.
Cherry-pick of @sharziki's #27022 routed Azure Foundry through
_requires_bearer_auth, which also triggered the MiniMax-specific
beta-strip in _common_betas_for_base_url — dropping the 1M-context
beta from Azure even though Azure needs it for 1M context.
Split the strip predicate: introduce _is_minimax_anthropic_endpoint
so the fine-grained-tool-streaming and context-1m strips only fire
for MiniMax hosts, leaving Azure's bearer-auth header swap intact
without losing 1M context.
Also add a regression test that asserts Azure gets Bearer auth,
the api-version query param, and the context-1m-2025-08-07 beta.
Azure AI Foundry's Anthropic-style endpoint requires
`Authorization: Bearer` instead of `x-api-key`. Add `azure.com` to
`_requires_bearer_auth()` so the existing Bearer path at line 586 fires
before the generic third-party branch sets `api_key` (x-api-key).
Fixes#26970
* feat(session_search): single-shape tool with discovery, scroll, browse — no LLM
Replaces the LLM-summarized session_search with a single-shape tool that
returns actual messages from the DB. Three calling shapes inferred from
args (no mode parameter):
1. Discovery — pass query. FTS5 + anchored ±5 window + bookends per hit,
all in one call. ~20ms on a real DB instead of ~90s for the previous
three aux-LLM calls.
2. Scroll — pass session_id + around_message_id. Returns a window
centered on the anchor. To paginate, re-anchor on the first/last id
of the returned window. Boundary message appears in both windows
as the orientation marker. ~1ms per scroll call.
3. Browse — no args. Recent sessions chronologically.
Bookend_start (first 3 user+assistant msgs) and bookend_end (last 3) give
the agent goal + resolution on every discovery hit, so a single tool call
reconstructs a long session's arc without loading the whole transcript.
The aux-LLM summary path is gone: it cost ~$0.30/call, took ~30s, and
laundered FTS5 hits through a model that could confabulate when the right
session wasn't in the hit list. The merged shape returns byte-for-byte
content from SQLite.
History:
- PR #20238 (JabberELF) seeded the fast/summary dual-mode split.
- PR #26419 (yoniebans) expanded to fast/guided/summary with bookends,
multi-anchor drill-down, default-mode config, and a teaching skill.
This PR collapses that toolkit into one shape with explicit scroll
support, drops the summary path, drops the mode parameter, drops the
config knob, drops the skill. JabberELF's seed work is acknowledged via
the AUTHOR_MAP entry.
Validation:
- 38/38 tool tests pass (tests/tools/test_session_search.py)
- 12/12 get_messages_around tests pass (tests/hermes_state/)
- 11/11 get_anchored_view tests pass (tests/hermes_state/)
- Full tests/tools/ run: 5168 passing, 2 failures pre-exist on main
(test ordering in test_delegate.py, unrelated)
- E2E against live state DB: discovery 20ms, scroll 1ms, browse 280ms;
pagination forward+backward works with boundary-message orientation;
error paths return clean tool_error responses

* chore(session_search): prune dead LLM-summary config and docs
Companion to the single-shape rewrite. The auxiliary.session_search config
block, max_concurrency / extra_body tunables, and matching docs sections
all referenced the removed LLM summarization path. Removing them so users
don't try to tune knobs that nothing reads.
- hermes_cli/config.py: drop dead auxiliary.session_search block from
DEFAULT_CONFIG. Leftover keys in user config.yaml are harmless and
ignored.
- hermes_cli/tips.py: drop two tips referencing the removed
max_concurrency / extra_body knobs.
- website/docs/user-guide/configuration.md: drop 'Session Search Tuning'
section and the auxiliary.session_search block from the example.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: drop session_search
rows from the auxiliary-tasks tables and the dedicated tuning subsection.
- website/docs/reference/tools-reference.md: rewrite the session_search
entry to describe the new three-shape behaviour.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: update the file-tree description.
- tests/tools/test_llm_content_none_guard.py: remove TestSessionSearchContentNone
class and test_session_search_tool_guarded — both guard against an
unguarded .content.strip() call site in _summarize_session() that no
longer exists.
Validation: 97/97 targeted tests still pass (hermes_state + session_search +
llm_content_none_guard). Config tests 55/55.

The system prompt's 'Conversation started:' line carried minute precision
(%I:%M %p), making it byte-unstable across every rebuild path. Within a
CLI session the in-memory cache held, but on the gateway path (fresh
AIAgent per turn → restore from session DB), any silent failure in the
read or write path dropped the cache stem and forced a full re-prefill
on every subsequent turn. Local prefix-caching backends (llama.cpp /
vLLM) saw this as KV-cache invalidation; remote prefix-caching providers
saw it as an Anthropic-style cache miss.
Three changes:
1. Date-only timestamp ('Sunday, May 17, 2026' instead of '... 03:42 PM').
System prompt now byte-stable for the full day. The model can still
query exact time via tools when it actually needs it. Credit:
@iamfoz (PR #20451).
2. Loud logging on session DB write failures. The update_system_prompt
call used to log at DEBUG, hiding disk-full / locked-database / schema
drift behind a silent fall-through that forced fresh rebuilds on
every subsequent turn. Now WARN with the session id and exception so
persistent issues show up in agent.log without verbose mode.
3. Three-way stored-state distinction on read. The previous
'session_row.get("system_prompt") or None' collapsed three states
into one (missing row / null column / empty string). Now we tell them
apart and WARN when a continuing session lands on null/empty (which
means the previous turn's write never persisted — every subsequent
turn rebuilds and the prefix cache misses every time).
The restore block is extracted into _restore_or_build_system_prompt()
so the prefix-cache path can be unit-tested in isolation.
E2E proof: fresh AIAgent constructed for turn 2 across a minute-boundary
sleep restores byte-identical bytes from the session DB. NULL stored
prompt fires the new warning. Date-only timestamp survives the rebuild
path. All on real SessionDB, no mocks.

Grok models hit the same failure modes that OPENAI_MODEL_EXECUTION_GUIDANCE
addresses for GPT/Codex: claiming completion without tool calls
('to be honest, I didn't create the file yet'), suggesting workarounds
instead of using existing tools (proposing a folder-based memory system
when the memory tool exists), replying with plans instead of executing.
TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_GUIDANCE was already injected for any model whose
name contains 'grok' (TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_MODELS). This extends the
follow-on family-specific block — OPENAI_MODEL_EXECUTION_GUIDANCE
(tool_persistence / mandatory_tool_use / act_dont_ask / prerequisite_checks
/ verification / missing_context) — to grok-named models too.
The OPENAI_ prefix is retained for backwards compat with imports/tests;
docstring + inline comment now note that the body is family-agnostic and
the prefix reflects origin, not exclusivity.
Tests cover the OpenRouter slug (x-ai/grok-4.3) and the xai-oauth bare
name (grok-4.3), plus a negative control on claude.
E2E verified against a real AIAgent build of the system prompt for both
xai-oauth and openrouter grok models.
Layered fallback for auxiliary tasks (compression, vision, tts, web_extract,
session_search, etc.):
1. Primary aux provider (existing)
2. User-configured auxiliary.<task>.fallback_chain (new)
3. Main agent provider + model (new — last-resort safety net)
4. Warn user + re-raise original error (new)
For users on 'auto' (no explicit aux provider), the existing
_try_payment_fallback auto-detection chain runs instead — its Step 1
already IS the main agent model, so they get the same behaviour without
configuration.
The configured fallback_chain config schema comes from #26882 / @zccyman;
the main-agent safety net + exhaustion warning were added on top.
Closes#26882. Builds on the capacity-error gate fix in the previous
commit (#26803 / @Bartok9).
Closes#26803
Root causes:
1. _is_payment_error() checked for billing keywords (credits, insufficient
funds, billing, payment required) but missed daily token quota exhaustion
phrases used by Bedrock, Vertex AI, and LiteLLM proxies — e.g.
'Too many tokens per day', 'quota exceeded', 'resource exhausted',
'daily limit'. These are functionally identical to credit exhaustion
(provider cannot serve the request) but don't trigger fallback.
2. The call_llm() fallback chain was gated on resolved_provider == 'auto'.
When a task resolves to a specific provider (e.g. 'custom' for a LiteLLM
proxy, or 'openrouter'), capacity failures (payment/quota/connection)
silently raise instead of trying alternatives. This is overly conservative:
capacity errors mean the provider *cannot* serve the request regardless of
user intent, so alternatives should always be tried.
Fixes:
- Add quota-related keywords to _is_payment_error(): quota_exceeded,
too many tokens per day, daily limit, tokens per day, daily quota,
resource exhausted (Vertex AI gRPC code).
- Allow fallback for capacity errors (payment + connection) even when
resolved_provider is not 'auto'. Rate-limit fallback stays gated on
is_auto to honour explicit provider constraints for transient limits.
- Apply both fixes to sync call_llm() and async acall_llm() paths.
- Add 6 targeted tests for the new quota-error detection cases.
Quarantine Nous OAuth state when refresh fails with terminal invalid_grant/invalid_token errors. Clear local and shared refresh material across runtime, managed access-token, proxy, and credential-pool paths so Hermes stops retrying revoked refresh sessions.
Port of the run_agent.py changes from #27219 to current main: the
_build_api_kwargs body was extracted into agent/chat_completion_helpers.
build_api_kwargs, so wire the xAI tool-schema sanitization there
(provider in {'xai', 'xai-oauth'} or base_url=api.x.ai). Logs a warning
instead of silently swallowing exceptions, matching the contributor's
review-followup fix.

Closes#25249 (and supersedes PR #25260) in spirit.
Two bugs in the streaming chat-completions path caused provider timeout
configuration to be silently ignored:
1. Hardcoded connect/pool timeout. The httpx.Timeout for streaming
calls used hardcoded connect=30.0 and pool=30.0 regardless of the
user's providers.<id>.request_timeout_seconds config. If the custom
provider (e.g. Ollama) was unreachable, the call always waited
exactly 30s before failing, ignoring any configured timeout.
Fix: use min(_base_timeout, 60.0) for connect and pool when a
provider timeout is configured, falling back to 30.0 otherwise.
The 60s cap addresses review feedback (TCP handshake shouldn't
wait the inference timeout — connect/pool cover the connection
layer, not model latency).
2. Streaming stale-stream detector ignored provider config. The
stale detector read only HERMES_STREAM_STALE_TIMEOUT (env default
180s). The providers.<id>.stale_timeout_seconds key (correctly
used in the non-streaming path) was never consulted.
Fix: check get_provider_stale_timeout(provider, model) first,
then fall back to the env var. Aligns the streaming path with
the non-streaming path's priority chain (config > env > default).
Salvage shape diverged from PR #25260: the function moved to
agent/chat_completion_helpers.py and the contributor's two commits
(initial fix + 60s-cap review follow-up) are squashed into one final
commit applied at the new location.

Addresses findings from two self-review passes pre-merge.
First pass (3-agent parallel review):
1. plugins/browser/browser_use/provider.py: drop the
``_ = managed_nous_tools_enabled`` dead-import-hider in
_get_config_or_none(). The import was actively misleading — the
helper IS used in _get_config() (separate method, separate import),
not here. The "keep static analysis happy" comment was wrong about
what the helper does in this scope.
2. agent/browser_provider.py: drop ``pragma: no cover`` from
is_configured() / provider_name() backward-compat aliases. They ARE
covered by ``TestLegacyAbcAliases`` — the pragma would have masked
future regressions.
3. tools/browser_tool.py: refactor _is_legacy_provider_registry_overridden()
to compare against a module-frozen _DEFAULT_PROVIDER_REGISTRY snapshot
instead of hardcoded set of 3 keys. Future maintainers adding a 4th
built-in provider now just extend _PROVIDER_REGISTRY; the override
detection adapts automatically. Previously the hardcoded
``set(...) != {"browserbase", "browser-use", "firecrawl"}`` would flip
True forever on any 4-key registry, silently routing every install
onto the legacy fixture path.
4. tools/browser_tool.py: when explicit ``browser.cloud_provider`` is set
but the registry has no matching plugin (typo, uninstalled plugin,
discovery failure), emit a WARNING with actionable text instead of
silently falling through to auto-detect. Legacy code surfaced a typed
credentials error via direct class instantiation; this log restores
the signal in the post-migration path.
5. agent/browser_registry.py: trim the triple-redundant _LEGACY_PREFERENCE
documentation. Module docstring + 13-line block-comment + 5-line
inline comment was repeating the same point. Kept the docstring and
trimmed the block-comment to 5 lines.
6. agent/browser_registry.py: upgrade is_available()-raised logging from
DEBUG to WARNING with exc_info=True. A provider's availability check
throwing is unusual enough that users debugging "no cloud provider"
need the traceback in logs.
7. tests/plugins/browser/check_parity_vs_main.py: drop dead top-level
imports (os, shutil, tempfile — only referenced inside the
SUBPROCESS_SCRIPT string literal that runs in a child process).
Second pass (architecture + claim-verification review):
8. tools/browser_tool.py: rewrite the inline comment in _get_cloud_provider
auto-detect branch. Prior text claimed it "routes through the plugin
registry's legacy preference walk so third-party plugins still get a
chance to be selected when they're explicitly configured" — false on
both counts. The branch uses module-level legacy class aliases
(BrowserUseProvider / BrowserbaseProvider) directly; third-party
plugins are intentionally reachable only via explicit
``browser.cloud_provider``. Corrected comment now matches behaviour
and cross-references _LEGACY_PREFERENCE for the firecrawl gate
rationale.
9. tools/browser_tool.py + tests/tools/test_managed_browserbase_and_modal.py:
drop the unused ``get_active_browser_provider as
_registry_get_active_browser_provider`` alias from the
``from agent.browser_registry import ...`` block. It was never
referenced; matching test-stub line in the agent.browser_registry
SimpleNamespace also dropped. ``get_provider`` is still imported (used
by the explicit-config dispatch path at line 535).
10. plugins/browser/firecrawl/provider.py: align emergency_cleanup()
with the early-guard pattern used in browserbase + browser_use
plugins. Previously firecrawl tried the DELETE and relied on
``_headers()`` raising ValueError to trip a "missing credentials"
warning; same final outcome but a different control flow that read
like a bug to a maintainer skimming the three modules. Now: if
is_available() is False, log+return early — identical shape to the
other two providers.
Verification: 54/54 unit tests + 13/13 parity scenarios still pass.
Switches tools.browser_tool's cloud-provider lookup from the hardcoded
_PROVIDER_REGISTRY class-instantiation pattern to the
agent.browser_registry singleton registry that plugins self-populate.
Changes:
- tools/browser_tool.py top imports: pull BrowserProvider from
agent.browser_provider (re-exported as CloudBrowserProvider for legacy
callers) and the three provider classes from plugins/browser/<vendor>/.
Legacy class names (BrowserbaseProvider, BrowserUseProvider, FirecrawlProvider)
remain on tools.browser_tool as re-export shims so existing test patches
(monkeypatch.setattr(browser_tool, 'BrowserUseProvider', ...)) keep working.
- _get_cloud_provider() now consults agent.browser_registry.get_provider()
for explicit-config lookups. The auto-detect fallback still uses
BrowserUseProvider() / BrowserbaseProvider() at the module level so the
cache-policy test fixtures (which patch those names) keep driving the
function. Test-time _PROVIDER_REGISTRY overrides are detected by class
identity and routed through the legacy factory-call path.
- agent/browser_provider.py: BrowserProvider grows is_configured() and
provider_name() as thin backward-compat aliases for the legacy
CloudBrowserProvider API. Subclasses MUST implement is_available() and
name; the aliases delegate. This keeps ~6 caller sites in browser_tool.py
working without churning them.
- tests/tools/test_managed_browserbase_and_modal.py: _install_fake_tools_package
grows stubs for agent.browser_provider / agent.browser_registry /
plugins.browser.<vendor>.provider so the test's spec-loader path
(sys.modules-reset + reload-tool-from-disk) can satisfy tools.browser_tool's
top-level imports.
Verified: all 23 existing tests in test_browser_cloud_*.py +
test_managed_browserbase_and_modal.py still pass post-cutover.
The legacy tools/browser_providers/ directory is NOT yet deleted; several
tests still _load_tool_module() those files via spec_from_file_location.
The deletion + test-path updates land in a later commit.
Migrates the remaining two cloud browser providers to plugins:
plugins/browser/browser_use/ — dual auth (direct BROWSER_USE_API_KEY
or managed Nous gateway), idempotency-
key handling for retried managed-mode
creates, x-external-call-id capture.
plugins/browser/firecrawl/ — direct FIRECRAWL_API_KEY only;
distinct from plugins/web/firecrawl/
(same key, different endpoint).
Also drops the 'single-eligible shortcut' rule from
agent.browser_registry._resolve(). Was a copy-paste from
web_search_registry that would have introduced a real behavior change:
a user with only FIRECRAWL_API_KEY set (for web-extract) would silently
get routed to a paid Firecrawl cloud browser on a fresh install — not
matching origin/main, which only auto-detected between Browser Use and
Browserbase. Third-party browser plugins are subject to the same gate:
they require explicit `browser.cloud_provider` to take effect.
Verified end-to-end via plugin discovery:
- 3 plugins register (browser-use, browserbase, firecrawl)
- _resolve(None) with no creds: None (local mode)
- _resolve(None) with only FIRECRAWL_API_KEY: None (matches main)
- _resolve('firecrawl'): firecrawl (explicit wins)
- _resolve(None) with BU+firecrawl: browser-use (legacy walk first hit)
- _resolve(None) with all three: browser-use (legacy walk order)
Foundation commit for the browser-provider plugin migration (#25214).
Mirrors the architecture established by PR #25182 (web providers):
- agent/browser_provider.py — BrowserProvider ABC. Preserves the legacy
CloudBrowserProvider lifecycle contract bit-for-bit (create_session,
close_session, emergency_cleanup, session metadata shape) so the
dispatcher in tools/browser_tool.py becomes a pure registry lookup.
Renames is_configured() → is_available() for parity with WebSearchProvider.
- agent/browser_registry.py — selection registry with the same
three-rule resolution as web_search_registry:
1. Explicit config wins (returns even if is_available() == False so
the dispatcher surfaces a precise credentials error)
2. Single-eligible shortcut
3. Legacy preference walk: browser-use → browserbase, filtered by
availability. Firecrawl is intentionally NOT in the legacy walk
(matches pre-migration behaviour — Firecrawl was only reachable
via explicit browser.cloud_provider: firecrawl).
- hermes_cli/plugins.py — adds ctx.register_browser_provider() facade,
one-liner mirror of register_web_search_provider().
No plugins registered yet; no dispatcher cutover yet. The next commits
move browserbase/browser-use/firecrawl into plugins/browser/<vendor>/
and switch tools/browser_tool.py over to the registry.
agent/bedrock_adapter.py now calls lazy_deps to install boto3 and
botocore on first import, mirroring how other optional provider
adapters defer their heavy AWS dependencies until actually used.
Keeps the base install slim for users who don't run on Bedrock.
Both the `action=block` and `decision=block` branches in _parse_response
shared identical field-priority and type-validation logic. Extract it into
a single _block_message(primary, secondary) helper so the two branches are
one line each and the type guard lives in exactly one place.
No functional change: existing tests (TestParseResponse, 14 tests) all
pass unchanged, confirming identical behaviour.
Address code review feedback on _parse_response:
1. Restore isinstance(raw, str) guard so non-string message/reason values
(e.g. integers, lists) from a malformed hook response fall back to the
default rather than being forwarded as-is. This keeps the contract that
message in the returned dict is always a string.
2. Extract the repeated literal 'Blocked by shell hook.' into a module-level
constant _DEFAULT_BLOCK_MESSAGE to avoid duplication and make it easy to
change in one place.
Four new unit tests added to tests/agent/test_shell_hooks.py covering:
- action block with no message (uses default)
- decision block with no reason (uses default)
- action block with empty string message (uses default)
- action block with non-string message, e.g. integer (uses default)
_parse_response in agent/shell_hooks.py only forwarded a pre_tool_call
block directive if the hook also provided a non-empty message or reason.
When either field was missing the function returned None, causing Hermes
to treat the response as a no-op and execute the tool unconditionally.
This means a hook that outputs {"action": "block"} or {"decision": "block"}
without a reason string is silently ignored. The security boundary fails
open: tools the user intended to gate are executed anyway.
Fix: remove the message-presence guard. Honor the block unconditionally
and fall back to a default message when none is provided. Existing hooks
that already include a message or reason are unaffected.
qwen3.6-plus did not have an explicit entry in DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS,
so the longest-substring fallback matched the generic 'qwen': 131072
catch-all. That dropped the effective context limit from 1,048,576
tokens to 131,072, prematurely lowered the compression threshold, and
produced misleading warnings about main/compression context mismatch
in long sessions.
Add an explicit 'qwen3.6-plus': 1048576 entry before the catch-all and
cover it with a regression test (bare, qwen/, and dashscope/ prefixes).
Note: PR #6599 also mentions touching model_metadata.py but the actual
diff only edits hermes_cli/models.py, so this fix is independent and
not duplicated by that PR.
Closes#27008
Six days after #23937 (608 fixes) the codebase had accumulated 241 new
PLR6201 violations. Same mechanical `x in (...)` → `x in {...}` fix,
same zero-risk profile: set lookup is O(1) vs O(n) for tuple and the
two are semantically equivalent for hashable scalar membership tests.
All 241 instances fixed via `ruff check --select PLR6201 --fix
--unsafe-fixes`, zero remaining. Every changed value is a hashable
scalar (str/int/None/enum/signal); no risk of unhashable runtime
errors. No behavior change.
Test plan:
- 119 files changed, +244/-244 (net zero) — exactly one-line edits
- `ruff check` clean afterward
- Compile checks pass on the largest touched files (cli.py, run_agent.py,
gateway/run.py, gateway/platforms/discord.py, model_tools.py)
- Subset broad test run on tests/gateway/ tests/hermes_cli/ tests/agent/
tests/tools/: 18187 passed, 59 pre-existing failures (verified against
origin/main with the same shape — identical failure count, identical
category — all xdist test-order flakes unrelated to this change)
Follows the same template as PR #23937 ([tracker: #23972](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/23972)).
Original commit 75e5d0f6b by hueilau targeted _build_api_kwargs in
pre-refactor run_agent.py. The body now lives in
agent/chat_completion_helpers.build_api_kwargs — re-applied there.
Also: switch the custom_providers forward (from 21078ebce) to use
getattr() — tests build a bare AIAgent via __new__ and would otherwise
hit AttributeError on _custom_providers.

Original commit 2b193907d by Teknium added a new module-level
_StreamErrorEvent class and threaded its raise into
_run_codex_create_stream_fallback in pre-refactor run_agent.py.
- _StreamErrorEvent class → run_agent.py (module-level, next to
_qwen_portal_headers; class needs to be top-level for the codex
runtime to import it)
- The fallback event-loop's 'type=error' handler → agent/codex_runtime.py
where run_codex_create_stream_fallback now lives. Imports
_StreamErrorEvent lazily from run_agent to avoid circular import.

Original commit e51d74ab9 by Maxim Esipov targeted _extract_api_error_context
and _recover_with_credential_pool in pre-refactor run_agent.py. Both bodies
now live in agent/agent_runtime_helpers.py — re-applied to that module:
- extract_api_error_context: payload.get('type') added to the reason
fallback chain (Codex error bodies use 'type' instead of 'code'/'error')
- recover_with_credential_pool: usage_limit_reached detection in the
rate_limit branch — skip the retry-once-then-rotate dance and rotate
immediately when the body says the per-account usage limit hit.

Original commits 4ded3ede3 (@konsisumer) + 374dc81c2 (Teknium) added a
413 hint to run_agent.py's agent loop. Final-state version (the sharpened
374dc81c2 wording) ported to agent/conversation_loop.py, where the
payload_too_large branch now lives.
The deprecation detection + _URL_TO_PROVIDER changes from both commits
landed in agent/copilot_acp_client.py and agent/model_metadata.py via
the prior merge.

Original commit 9c304a7f5 by helix4u targeted _flatten_exception_chain,
_summarize_api_error, and the _call streaming retry loop in pre-refactor
run_agent.py. Re-applied to:
- New _is_provider_stream_parse_error helper → run_agent.py (next
to _flatten_exception_chain in the AIAgent class)
- _summarize_api_error early-return for the malformed-streaming
ValueError → run_agent.py (kept method body)
- _call streaming retry: _is_stream_parse_err flag wired into
_is_transient AND the post-exhaustion branch + dedicated
malformed-streaming user-status string → agent/chat_completion_helpers.py
(the _call body now lives there)

Collapses the four-commit xAI entitlement-403 chain to its final
on-main state, ported to the post-refactor module layout:
- Added _is_entitlement_failure on AIAgent (run_agent.py) — detects
Grok subscription-shape 403s on (401|403|None) status codes.
- Added entitlement-skip branch to recover_with_credential_pool
(agent/agent_runtime_helpers.py) — breaks the refresh-loop that
Don's 100-iteration trace exposed when a Premium+ user hit a real
entitlement issue.
- Removed _decorate_xai_entitlement_error and unwrapped its two
_summarize_api_error call sites — xAI's own body text already
points users at grok.com/?_s=usage so we surface that verbatim
(dffb602f3 reasoning: X Premium subs DO now work per xAI's
2026-05-16 announcement, so editorialising would misdirect).
- grok-4.3 1M context entry landed in agent/model_metadata.py
via the prior merge — no additional port needed.
Tests already on disk (tests/run_agent/test_codex_xai_oauth_recovery.py)
assert _is_entitlement_failure shape and verbatim body surfacing.
Closes#27110.

Original commit 31ba2b0cb by Teknium targeted run_codex_stream() at
its pre-refactor location in run_agent.py. Re-applied:
- Prelude error retry/fallback → agent/codex_runtime.py (in
run_codex_stream where the body now lives)
- _decorate_xai_entitlement_error helper + _summarize_api_error
wrapping → run_agent.py (these methods remained on AIAgent
as @staticmethod's; cherry-pick applied them cleanly)
The xai-oauth provider gate, encrypted_content drop on replay, etc.
landed in agent/codex_responses_adapter.py via the prior merge from main.

Original commit 4f8aaf104 by InB4DevOps targeted run_conversation() in
the pre-refactor run_agent.py. Re-applied to the extracted location in
agent/conversation_loop.py.
Co-authored-by: InB4DevOps <tolle.lege+github@gmail.com>
run_agent.py taken from HEAD (the extracted forwarder structure). The 25
run_agent.py fixes that landed on main during the PR's life need to be
ported into the agent/* extracted modules in follow-up commits.
_OPENROUTER_MODEL hardcoded 'google/gemini-3-flash-preview' which
returns 404 on OpenRouter, breaking all vision tasks for users who
rely on the OpenRouter default. Additionally, _try_openrouter()
ignored the user-configured auxiliary.vision.model entirely.
Changes:
- Update _OPENROUTER_MODEL default to google/gemini-2.5-flash (valid)
- Add optional 'model' parameter to _try_openrouter()
- Pass configured model from _resolve_strict_vision_backend() through
to _try_openrouter()
This allows users who set auxiliary.vision.model (e.g. x-ai/grok-4.3)
to have it actually used, while maintaining backward compatibility.
In resolve_provider_client(), the named custom provider code path at
~line 2914 only checked the ``key_env`` field when looking for an
environment-variable-based API key. The documented ``api_key_env``
snake_case alias was silently ignored, causing custom providers
configured with ``api_key_env`` to fall through to the
``no-key-required`` placeholder — which produces a confusing 401
(``****ired`` mask) on auth-required remote endpoints.
This mirrors the same fix already applied to run_agent.py in commit
6ddc48b05 (fix(fallback): resolve api_key_env in fallback chain entries).
Also adds a logger.warning() when the placeholder is reached, so
future alias gaps are easier to debug.
Closes#25091
Four fixes from PR #27248 review:
1. **__init__ forwarder is now keyword-forwarded** (daimon-nous review).
Previously the run_agent.AIAgent.__init__ wrapper forwarded all 64
params positionally to agent.agent_init.init_agent, so adding a
65th param on main would require three lockstep edits (signature,
init_agent signature, forwarder call) or silently shift every value.
Keyword forwarding makes this trivially safe — adding a param now
only needs the two signatures and one extra keyword line.
2. **Drop dead _ra() in agent/codex_runtime.py** (daimon-nous + Copilot).
The lazy run_agent reference was defined but never called inside
this module — the codex paths use agent.* accessors only.
3. **Drop unused imports in agent/codex_runtime.py** (Copilot):
contextvars, threading, time, uuid, Optional. Carried over from
run_agent.py during the original extraction.
4. **Tighten three source-introspection test guards** (Copilot):
- test_memory_nudge_counter_hydration.py — was scanning the
concatenated source of run_agent.py + agent/conversation_loop.py
and matching self.X or agent.X form. Now asserts the
hydration block lives in agent/conversation_loop.py specifically
with the agent.X form — the body never moves back, so if it
ever drifts a future re-introduction fails the guard.
- test_run_agent.py::TestMemoryNudgeCounterPersistence — anchor on
agent.iteration_budget = IterationBudget exactly (was just
iteration_budget = IterationBudget) so an unrelated identifier
ending in iteration_budget can't match.
- test_run_agent.py::TestMemoryProviderTurnStart — assert the
agent._user_turn_count form directly (the extracted body uses
agent.X, not self.X — accepting either was a transitional fudge).
- test_jsondecodeerror_retryable.py — scan agent/conversation_loop.py
only, not the concatenation.
Not addressed in this commit:
* Pre-existing bugs in agent/tool_executor.py (heartbeat index
mismatch when calls are blocked, _current_tool clobber in result
loop, blocked-counted-as-completed in spinner summary, dead
result_preview computation). These were preserved byte-for-byte from
the original _execute_tool_calls_concurrent — worth a separate
follow-up PR with proper tests.
* _OpenAIProxy.__instancecheck__ concern — pre-existing, not flagged
by any of the original test patches (nothing actually does
isinstance(x, OpenAI) against the proxy instance).
* agent_init.py:949 mem_config potential NameError — pre-existing;
only triggers if _agent_cfg.get('memory', {}) itself raises, which
it can't with a stock dict.
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/: 4313 passed, 1 pre-existing
test_auxiliary_client failure (unchanged).
run_agent.py: 3821 -> 3937 lines (+116 from the keyword-forwarded
init call's verbosity). Final: 16083 -> 3937 (-12146, 75% reduction).
build_skill_invocation_message() returns a non-empty placeholder string
('[Failed to load skill: ...]') when the skill exists in the command cache
but loading the actual SKILL.md payload fails. CLI/gateway callers treat
any truthy return value as success, so the failure is silently routed into
the model as if it were a valid skill prompt.
Return None instead, matching the existing behavior for unknown commands,
so callers using 'if msg:' can properly detect the failure.
The largest method left on AIAgent (60+ parameters, the entire startup
sequence — credential resolution, provider auto-detection, context
engine bootstrap, memory store hydration, plugin lifecycle hooks)
moves into agent/agent_init.py.
AIAgent.__init__ is now a thin wrapper that calls
agent.agent_init.init_agent(self, ...) with the original full
parameter list preserved.
Module-level run_agent names referenced in the body (_openrouter_prewarm_done,
_qwen_portal_headers, _routermint_headers, _hermes_home, OpenAI,
get_tool_definitions, check_toolset_requirements) are resolved through
_ra() so test patches on those names keep working. agent_init's logger
warnings are routed via _ra().logger so tests patching run_agent.logger
capture them (TestStringKSuffixContextLengthWarns,
TestCustomProvidersInvalidContextLengthWarns).
Live E2E reconfirmed on three model paths (openai/gpt-5.4,
anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6, moonshotai/kimi-k2-thinking).
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/: 4313 passed (same pre-existing
test_auxiliary_client failure).
run_agent.py: 5944 -> 4564 lines (-1380).
Total reduction since baseline: 16083 -> 4564 (-11519, 72%).
The 3,877-line run_conversation body — the agent loop itself — moves out
of run_agent.py into a dedicated module. AIAgent.run_conversation is
now a thin forwarder that delegates to agent.conversation_loop.run_conversation
with the AIAgent instance as the first argument.
This is the largest single extraction in the run_agent.py refactor.
The body keeps all 163 self.X references intact (rewritten as agent.X),
all nested closures, all retry/backoff/compression machinery. Symbols
that tests or callers patch on run_agent (_set_interrupt,
handle_function_call, AIAgent class attrs) are resolved through _ra()
inside the extracted module so the patch surface is preserved.
Five tests doing inspect.getsource(AIAgent.run_conversation) updated to
scan agent.conversation_loop.run_conversation. Two source-introspection
tests (TestMemoryNudgeCounterPersistence, TestMemoryProviderTurnStart)
updated to accept either self.X (legacy) or agent.X (extracted
form) in the matched assertions.
Live E2E verified on three model paths:
* openai/gpt-5.4 (OpenAI chat completions via OpenRouter)
* anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6 (Anthropic Messages via OpenRouter)
* moonshotai/kimi-k2-thinking (reasoning model, reasoning_content path)
Plus read_file tool execution, terminal tool, web_search.
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/: 4313 passed, 1 pre-existing failure
(test_auxiliary_client::test_custom_endpoint... — same as on main).
run_agent.py: 9800 -> 5944 lines (-3856).
Total reduction since baseline: 16083 -> 5944 (-10139, 63%).
The three big review-prompt strings (_MEMORY_REVIEW_PROMPT,
_SKILL_REVIEW_PROMPT, _COMBINED_REVIEW_PROMPT — 183 lines combined) move
out of the AIAgent class body and into agent/background_review.py where
they're consumed.
AIAgent re-exposes them as class attributes via 'from ... import' inside
the class body — Python binds those names into the class namespace so
existing AIAgent._MEMORY_REVIEW_PROMPT references keep working.
spawn_background_review_thread also falls back to the module-level
constants if an agent doesn't have the attribute (preserves the test
pattern of mocking these on the agent).
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/: 4313 passed (same pre-existing
test_auxiliary_client failure).
run_agent.py: 9986 -> 9800 lines (-186).
Move _interruptible_streaming_api_call out of run_agent.py — the biggest
single method in the file. Body lives next to interruptible_api_call
in agent/chat_completion_helpers.py so streaming + non-streaming code
share one home.
Nested closures (_call_chat_completions, _call_anthropic, the codex
stream branch) all come along with the body and still capture the
parent function's locals as expected.
AIAgent keeps a thin forwarder method. is_local_endpoint added to
the import block (used by the stream stale-timeout disable logic).
One source-introspection test in TestAnthropicInterruptHandler is
updated to scan agent.chat_completion_helpers.interruptible_streaming_api_call
instead of AIAgent._interruptible_streaming_api_call.
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/: 4312 passed (same pre-existing
test_auxiliary_client failure).
run_agent.py: 12277 -> 11385 lines (-892).
Move the two big tool-dispatch methods out of run_agent.py:
* execute_tool_calls_concurrent — 408-line concurrent path (interrupt
pre-flight, guardrail+plugin block, callback fan-out, ContextVar-
preserving ThreadPoolExecutor, periodic heartbeats for the gateway
inactivity monitor, per-tool result handling with subdir hints +
guardrail observations + checkpoint, /steer drain)
* execute_tool_calls_sequential — 441-line sequential path (the
original behavior used for single-tool batches and interactive
tools)
Both take the parent AIAgent as their first argument; AIAgent keeps
thin forwarders so call sites unchanged. handle_function_call is
routed through _ra() so tests that patch run_agent.handle_function_call
keep working. _set_interrupt likewise.
The AST guard in test_tool_executor_contextvar_propagation.py is
updated to scan both run_agent.py AND agent/tool_executor.py so it
still catches the executor.submit(_run_tool, ...) regression
regardless of which file the body lives in.
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/: 4313 passed (same pre-existing
test_auxiliary_client failure as before).
run_agent.py: 14309 -> 13461 lines (-848).
Move the background-review subsystem (the self-improvement loop — see the
README) out of run_agent.py into a dedicated module.
* summarize_background_review_actions — was the @staticmethod that builds
the user-facing action summary
* spawn_background_review_thread — builds the thread target + prompt;
the actual review loop body (forked AIAgent, runtime inheritance,
tool whitelist, suppression, teardown) lives in _run_review_in_thread
* build_memory_write_metadata — provenance for external memory mirrors
AIAgent keeps thin wrappers for backward compatibility AND because tests
patch run_agent.threading.Thread to assert lifecycle behavior — the
threading.Thread construction stays in AIAgent._spawn_background_review,
the inner work moves out.
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/: 4313 passed, 1 pre-existing failure
(test_auxiliary_client.py::test_custom_endpoint... — confirmed failing
on main before this change). 3 skipped.
run_agent.py: 15272 -> 14972 lines (-300).
Three small extractions into focused modules:
* agent/process_bootstrap.py — \_OpenAIProxy (lazy openai.OpenAI import),
\_SafeWriter (broken-pipe-resistant stdio wrapper), \_install_safe_stdio,
\_get_proxy_from_env, \_get_proxy_for_base_url. All process / IO bootstrap.
* agent/iteration_budget.py — IterationBudget class (thread-safe consume/
refund counter shared by parent agent and subagents).
run_agent re-exports every name so existing test patches like
patch('run_agent.OpenAI', ...) and 'from run_agent import IterationBudget'
keep working unchanged. Verified the patch-rebinding contract for OpenAI
explicitly.
tests/run_agent/ + tests/agent/test_gemini_fast_fallback.py:
1347 passed, 3 skipped.
run_agent.py: 15427 -> 15261 lines (-166).
Pull the 10 pure sanitization/repair helpers (\_sanitize_surrogates,
\_sanitize_structure_surrogates, \_sanitize_messages_surrogates,
\_escape_invalid_chars_in_json_strings, \_repair_tool_call_arguments,
\_strip_non_ascii, \_sanitize_messages_non_ascii, \_sanitize_tools_non_ascii,
\_strip_images_from_messages, \_sanitize_structure_non_ascii) and the
\_SURROGATE_RE constant out of run_agent.py into a new module.
These are stateless byte-walking helpers with no AIAgent dependency.
Backward compatibility: run_agent re-exports every name via a single
import block, so existing 'from run_agent import _sanitize_surrogates'
imports in tests and cli.py keep working unchanged. Same pattern the
file already uses for _summarize_user_message_for_log (codex_responses_adapter).
run_agent.py: 16077 -> 15682 lines (-395).
After context compression, the protected tail messages retain their
original image parts. When those include multi-MB pasted screenshots,
every subsequent API request re-ships the same base-64 blobs forever —
which can push the request past provider body-size limits and wedge the
session even though compression 'succeeded'.
Add _strip_historical_media() to agent/context_compressor.py. After the
summary is built, find the newest user message that carries an image
part and replace image parts in every earlier message with a short
text placeholder ('[Attached image — stripped after compression]').
The newest image-bearing user turn keeps its media so the model can
still analyse what the user just sent.
Handles all three multimodal shapes:
- OpenAI chat.completions image_url
- OpenAI Responses API input_image
- Anthropic native {type: image, source: ...}
Includes 27 unit tests covering the helpers and the end-to-end
compress() integration, plus a manual E2E check confirming a ~4MB
two-image conversation shrinks to ~2MB after compression.
Port from anomalyco/opencode#24730: Moonshot's JSON Schema validator rejects
two shapes that the rest of the JSON Schema ecosystem accepts:
1. $ref nodes with sibling keywords. Moonshot expands the reference before
validation and then rejects the node if keys like `description`, `type`,
or `default` appear alongside $ref. MCP-sourced tool schemas commonly
put a `description` on $ref-typed properties so the model sees the
field hint — which worked on every provider except Moonshot.
2. Tuple-style `items` arrays (positional element schemas). Moonshot's
engine requires ONE schema applied to every array element. Common in
tool schemas generated from Go/Protobuf that model fixed-length arrays
as `[{type:number}, {type:number}]`.
Repairs applied in `agent/moonshot_schema.py`:
- Rule 3: when a node has `$ref`, return `{"$ref": <value>}` only
(strip every sibling). The referenced definition still carries its own
description on the target node, which Moonshot accepts.
- Rule 4: when `items` is a list, collapse to the first element schema
(falling back to `{}` which is then filled by the generic missing-type
rule). Preserves `minItems` / `maxItems` / other siblings.
Tests: 10 new cases across TestRefSiblingStripping + TestTupleItems,
plus the existing TestMissingTypeFilled::test_ref_node_is_not_given_synthetic_type
still passes (it asserted plain $ref passes through; now it passes through
as exactly `{"$ref": "..."}` which is strictly compatible).
All 35 tests in test_moonshot_schema.py pass.
Group the secrets import with time and webbrowser at the top of
run_hermes_oauth_login_pure(), matching the existing pattern.
Drop the _secrets alias — no name conflict in this scope.
The PKCE flow reused the code_verifier as the OAuth state parameter.
Per RFC 6749 §10.12 and RFC 7636, these serve different purposes:
state is an anti-CSRF token visible in the authorization URL; the
code_verifier must remain secret for the token exchange.
Generate an independent secrets.token_urlsafe(32) for state and
validate it on callback to provide actual CSRF protection.
Closes#10693
Follow-up improvements on top of @konsisumer's cherry-picked fix for #10648:
1. Deprecation patterns required BOTH a product fingerprint ('gh-copilot') and
a deprecation marker. The previous list included 'copilot-cli' and bare
'deprecation', which would false-positive on stderr from the NEW
@github/copilot CLI — whose repo is literally github.com/github/copilot-cli
and which legitimately surfaces those substrings in its own messages.
2. Replace the deprecation hint. The user in #10648 installed
'gh extension install github/gh-copilot' (the deprecated extension)
thinking that's what ACP mode uses, when ACP actually spawns the new
'copilot' binary from '@github/copilot'. The hint now points users at the
correct install command ('npm install -g @github/copilot') with the new
CLI's repo URL, and demotes provider-switching to a fallback alternative.
3. Change _URL_TO_PROVIDER value for models.inference.ai.azure.com from the
'github-models' alias to the canonical 'copilot' provider id, matching the
convention used by every other entry in the table.
4. Sharpen the 413 hint message. The free tier's ~8K cap is below the
system-prompt floor, so this endpoint is fundamentally incompatible with
an agentic loop — not a 'use a different URL' problem.
Tests:
- New parametrized false-positive coverage for the new CLI's stderr shape.
- Updated assertion to require canonical 'copilot' provider mapping.
- All 14 deprecation/URL tests pass.
Address two blocking issues when using GitHub Copilot integrations:
1. ACP mode: detect the gh-copilot CLI deprecation error from stderr
and surface an actionable message with alternatives instead of
hanging or showing a cryptic error.
2. GitHub Models (Azure) 413: recognize models.inference.ai.azure.com
as a known GitHub Models URL, and print a targeted hint explaining
the hard 8K token limit that makes this endpoint incompatible with
Hermes' system prompt size.
Don Piedro's 18-minute hang on grok-4.3 traced to two issues PR #26644
didn't cover:
- _recover_with_credential_pool classifies 403 as FailoverReason.auth
and calls pool.try_refresh_current(). For xAI OAuth on an
unsubscribed account, refresh succeeds (mints a new token from the
same account) but the next API call 403s with the same entitlement
error. Result: infinite refresh → retry → 403 loop until Ctrl+C
(1133s in Don's log). New _is_entitlement_failure(error_context,
status_code) detects the subscription-shape body ("do not have an
active Grok subscription" / "out of available resources" + grok /
"does not have permission" + grok) and short-circuits recovery so
_summarize_api_error surfaces PR #26644's friendly hint.
- grok-4.3 resolved to 256k via the grok-4 catch-all in
DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS. Per docs.x.ai/developers/models/grok-4.3
the model ships with 1M context. Add explicit grok-4.3 entry
before the grok-4 fallback (longest-first substring matching
ensures grok-4.3 and grok-4.3-latest both land on the new value).
Tests: 8 new (23 total in test_codex_xai_oauth_recovery.py).
E2E verified Don's 100-iteration loop bails out with 0 refresh calls
while genuine auth failures still refresh once and recover.
The cherry-picked PR #15251 from @tw2818 correctly identified the
DeepSeek 400 root cause but placed the fix in the legacy fallback path
of `build_kwargs`, which DeepSeek never reaches — DeepSeek has a
registered ProviderProfile and goes through `_build_kwargs_from_profile`
instead. The legacy-path block was therefore dead code.
This commit pivots the fix to where it actually fires:
- New `DeepSeekProfile` in `plugins/model-providers/deepseek/__init__.py`
overrides `build_api_kwargs_extras` to emit DeepSeek's expected wire
format (mirrors `KimiProfile`):
{"reasoning_effort": "<low|medium|high|max>",
"extra_body": {"thinking": {"type": "enabled" | "disabled"}}}
- Model gating: only `deepseek-v4-*` and `deepseek-reasoner` emit
thinking control. `deepseek-chat` (V3) is untouched — current behavior.
- Effort mapping: low/medium/high passthrough, xhigh/max → max, unset →
omitted (DeepSeek server applies its own default).
- Revert the legacy-path additions from PR #15251 — they were dead code,
and the `_copy_reasoning_content_for_api` strip block specifically
would have nullified the existing reasoning_content padding machinery
(`_needs_deepseek_tool_reasoning` → space-pad on replay) that the
active provider already relies on for replay correctness.
- Unit tests pin the wire-shape contract and the model gating rules
(26 tests, all passing). Existing transport + provider profile suites
(321 tests) continue to pass.

DeepSeek's thinking mode requires both:
- extra_body.thinking.type: "enabled" to activate thinking mode
- top-level reasoning_effort: "max" or "high" to control depth
Previously, the ChatCompletionsTransport only handled Kimi's thinking
mode — DeepSeek was left unmapped, so reasoning_effort config was
silently dropped.
This patch:
1. Adds is_deepseek: bool to the Params dataclass, detected by
base_url matching api.deepseek.com
2. Maps Hermes effort levels (xhigh/max → "max", low/medium/high →
themselves) to the top-level reasoning_effort parameter
3. Sets extra_body.thinking.type alongside the effort
4. Strips reasoning_content from assistant messages sent back to
DeepSeek, preventing 400 errors when thinking was enabled
Three fixes for the May 2026 xAI OAuth (SuperGrok / X Premium) rollout
failures:
- _run_codex_stream: when openai SDK raises RuntimeError("Expected to
have received `response.created` before `<type>`"), retry once then
fall back to responses.create(stream=True) — same path used for
missing-response.completed postlude. Fallback surfaces the real
provider error with body+status_code intact. Also fixes#8133
(response.in_progress prelude on custom relays) and #14634
(codex.rate_limits prelude on codex-lb).
- _summarize_api_error: when error body matches xAI's entitlement
shape, append a one-line hint pointing to https://grok.com and
/model. Once-only, applies to both auxiliary warnings and
main-loop error surfacing.
- _chat_messages_to_responses_input: new is_xai_responses kwarg
drops replayed codex_reasoning_items (encrypted_content) before
they reach xAI. Also drops reasoning.encrypted_content from the
xAI include array. Native Codex behavior unchanged. Grok still
reasons natively each turn; coherence rides on visible message
text alone.
Closes#8133, #14634.
The top-of-file scope docstring listed delegate_task, memory, and
session_search as exposed tools, but EXPOSED_TOOLS deliberately omits
them (they're _AGENT_LOOP_TOOLS and require the running AIAgent context
to dispatch — the inline comment block already explains this). Kanban
tools, which ARE exposed, were missing from the docstring entirely.
Rewrite the Scope / DO NOT expose sections to match the actual tuple:
drop delegate_task/memory/session_search from 'expose', add the
kanban_* family, move delegate_task/memory/session_search/todo into
'DO NOT expose' with the agent-loop rationale.
Fixes#26567 (doc-only fix; option 2 — shimming memory/session_search
through MemoryStore/SessionDB directly — left for a follow-up issue
once the plugin-memory locking story is audited).
Wraps every sync->async coroutine-scheduling site in the codebase with a
new agent.async_utils.safe_schedule_threadsafe() helper that closes the
coroutine on scheduling failure (closed loop, shutdown race, etc.)
instead of leaking it as 'coroutine was never awaited' RuntimeWarnings
plus reference leaks.
22 production call sites migrated across the codebase:
- acp_adapter/events.py, acp_adapter/permissions.py
- agent/lsp/manager.py
- cron/scheduler.py (media + text delivery paths)
- gateway/platforms/feishu.py (5 sites, via existing _submit_on_loop helper
which now delegates to safe_schedule_threadsafe)
- gateway/run.py (10 sites: telegram rename, agent:step hook, status
callback, interim+bg-review, clarify send, exec-approval button+text,
temp-bubble cleanup, channel-directory refresh)
- plugins/memory/hindsight, plugins/platforms/google_chat
- tools/browser_supervisor.py (3), browser_cdp_tool.py,
computer_use/cua_backend.py, slash_confirm.py
- tools/environments/modal.py (_AsyncWorker)
- tools/mcp_tool.py (2 + 8 _run_on_mcp_loop callers converted to
factory-style so the coroutine is never constructed on a dead loop)
- tui_gateway/ws.py
Tests: new tests/agent/test_async_utils.py covers helper behavior under
live loop, dead loop, None loop, and scheduling exceptions. Regression
tests added at three PR-original sites (acp events, acp permissions,
mcp loop runner) mirroring contributor's intent.
Live-tested end-to-end:
- Helper stress test: 1500 schedules across live/dead/race scenarios,
zero leaked coroutines
- Race exercised: 5000 schedules with loop killed mid-flight, 100 ok /
4900 None returns, zero leaks
- hermes chat -q with terminal tool call (exercises step_callback bridge)
- MCP probe against failing subprocess servers + factory path
- Real gateway daemon boot + SIGINT shutdown across multiple platform
adapter inits
- WSTransport 100 live + 50 dead-loop writes
- Cron delivery path live + dead loop
Salvages PR #2657 — adopts contributor's intent over a much wider site
list and a single centralized helper instead of inline try/except at
each site. 3 of the original PR's 6 sites no longer exist on main
(environments/patches.py deleted, DingTalk refactored to native async);
the equivalent fix lives in tools/environments/modal.py instead.

The xAI prompt_cache_key block carried two long comment paragraphs
that either restated setdefault semantics, narrated the SDK
type-validation mechanism, or recapped the historical motivation for
the extra_body indirection — all already covered by the test
docstring at test_xai_responses_sends_cache_key_via_extra_body
(which links to the xAI docs). Also restored the truncated link in
the body-injection comment.
No behavior change.
Adds a new authentication provider that lets SuperGrok subscribers sign
in to Hermes with their xAI account via the standard OAuth 2.0 PKCE
loopback flow, instead of pasting a raw API key from console.x.ai.
Highlights
----------
* OAuth 2.0 PKCE loopback login against accounts.x.ai with discovery,
state/nonce, and a strict CORS-origin allowlist on the callback.
* Authorize URL carries `plan=generic` (required for non-allowlisted
loopback clients) and `referrer=hermes-agent` for best-effort
attribution in xAI's OAuth server logs.
* Token storage in `auth.json` with file-locked atomic writes; JWT
`exp`-based expiry detection with skew; refresh-token rotation
synced both ways between the singleton store and the credential
pool so multi-process / multi-profile setups don't tear each other's
refresh tokens.
* Reactive 401 retry: on a 401 from the xAI Responses API, the agent
refreshes the token, swaps it back into `self.api_key`, and retries
the call once. Guarded against silent account swaps when the active
key was sourced from a different (manual) pool entry.
* Auxiliary tasks (curator, vision, embeddings, etc.) route through a
dedicated xAI Responses-mode auxiliary client instead of falling back
to OpenRouter billing.
* Direct HTTP tools (`tools/xai_http.py`, transcription, TTS, image-gen
plugin) resolve credentials through a unified runtime → singleton →
env-var fallback chain so xai-oauth users get them for free.
* `hermes auth add xai-oauth` and `hermes auth remove xai-oauth N` are
wired through the standard auth-commands surface; remove cleans up
the singleton loopback_pkce entry so it doesn't silently reinstate.
* `hermes model` provider picker shows
"xAI Grok OAuth (SuperGrok Subscription)" and the model-flow falls
back to pool credentials when the singleton is missing.
Hardening
---------
* Discovery and refresh responses validate the returned
`token_endpoint` host against the same `*.x.ai` allowlist as the
authorization endpoint, blocking MITM persistence of a hostile
endpoint.
* Discovery / refresh / token-exchange `response.json()` calls are
wrapped to raise typed `AuthError` on malformed bodies (captive
portals, proxy error pages) instead of leaking JSONDecodeError
tracebacks.
* `prompt_cache_key` is routed through `extra_body` on the codex
transport (sending it as a top-level kwarg trips xAI's SDK with a
TypeError).
* Credential-pool sync-back preserves `active_provider` so refreshing
an OAuth entry doesn't silently flip the active provider out from
under the running agent.
Testing
-------
* New `tests/hermes_cli/test_auth_xai_oauth_provider.py` (~63 tests)
covers JWT expiry, OAuth URL params (plan + referrer), CORS origins,
redirect URI validation, singleton↔pool sync, concurrency races,
refresh error paths, runtime resolution, and malformed-JSON guards.
* Extended `test_credential_pool.py`, `test_codex_transport.py`, and
`test_run_agent_codex_responses.py` cover the pool sync-back,
`extra_body` routing, and 401 reactive refresh paths.
* 165 tests passing on this branch via `scripts/run_tests.sh`.
When the auxiliary client falls through Nous (e.g. no stored auth, or
runtime credential mint failed), users currently see only `debug`-level
lines, so the next provider in the fallback chain takes over silently.
Promote the no-auth path to a warning that tells operators to run
`hermes auth`, and add a debug breadcrumb on the rarer
mint-failed-but-stored-auth-still-present fallback path so the existing
behavior (use the raw stored token) is preserved while staying
investigable.
Salvaged from #23881 by @0xharryriddle. The contributor's original
patch also short-circuited the second branch with a return, which broke
the pool-entry fallback path covered by
`test_try_nous_uses_pool_entry` — kept the warning intent, dropped the
return so the fallback still works. Dropped the contributor's changes
to `hermes_cli/goals.py` because the goal-pause path is unreachable
when the auxiliary client is None (`judge_goal` returns
`parse_failed=False`, which resets `consecutive_parse_failures`),
so the reason string they added never surfaces in the pause message.
Refs #23876
Pre-existing diagnostics below an edit point used to surface as 'LSP
diagnostics introduced by this edit' whenever the edit deleted or
inserted lines. The delta-filter key included the diagnostic's
range, so the same logical error reported at a different line in
the post-edit snapshot looked like a brand new diagnostic.
Concrete case: deleting 14 lines in cli.py caused Pyright errors at
lines 9873, 10590, 12413, 13004 (unrelated to the edit) to be
reported as introduced by it.
Fix: build a piecewise-linear line-shift map (via difflib's
SequenceMatcher) from pre and post content, and remap baseline
diagnostics into post-edit coordinates before the set-difference.
Diagnostics in deleted regions drop out cleanly; diagnostics below
the edit shift by the right amount; diagnostics above are untouched.
The strict (range-aware) equality key stays — so a genuinely new
instance of an identical error class at a different line still
surfaces as new.
Pieces:
- agent/lsp/range_shift.py — build_line_shift, shift_diagnostic_range,
shift_baseline. Pure functions, no LSP state.
- agent/lsp/manager.py — LSPService.get_diagnostics_sync gains an
optional line_shift kwarg; baseline is shift_baseline'd before
computing the seen-set. _diag_key keeps the strict range key.
- tools/file_operations.py — write_file captures pre_content for any
LSP-handled extension (not just LINTERS_INPROC) and passes pre/post
to _maybe_lsp_diagnostics, which builds the shift map.
- New _lsp_handles_extension helper guards the pre_content read.
Trade-offs preserved:
- Genuinely new same-class errors at different lines still surface
(content-only key would have swallowed them).
- Pre-existing errors at unshifted positions still get filtered
(covered by the strict-key path with no shift).
- Best-effort: when pre_content can't be captured (file didn't
exist, permissions), the unshifted comparison still catches
most pre-existing errors; the edge case it misses is a new file
with a non-empty baseline, which is structurally impossible.
When codex app-server fails outside the OAuth-classified path
(non-auth turn/start errors, plain TimeoutErrors, generic turn-ended
status, subprocess silently exits, hard deadline timeout), the user
got a bare 'Internal error' / 'turn/start failed: ...' with no
context. Diagnosing config/provider/auth-bridge issues forced a
re-run with verbose codex flags.
Add a _format_error_with_stderr helper that appends the last few
stderr lines via agent.redact.redact_sensitive_text(force=True),
and use it at every catch-all error site:
- ensure_started() failures (codex init / thread/start) now return
a TurnResult.error with should_retire=True instead of bubbling
- non-OAuth turn/start CodexAppServerError / TimeoutError
- subprocess-died branch (previously dumped raw stderr_blob[-300:]
with no redaction — a leak risk)
- turn ended with non-completed status
- hard turn-timeout deadline
OAuth-classified failures and the post-tool quiet watchdog already
produce clean hints and stay unchanged. The redactor catches sk-*,
gh*_*, Authorization: Bearer, query-string tokens, JWTs, private
keys, etc., so provider error payloads can't leak into chat output
or trajectories.
Inspired by openclaw#80718, adapted for our app-server transport.
_make_stream_chunk built delta_kwargs with only `role`, so a reasoning-only
chunk produced a SimpleNamespace without a `.content` attribute. Downstream
consumers that read `delta.content` then raised AttributeError on Gemini 2.5
Flash, where the thinking delta arrives before any content delta.
Seed `content`, `tool_calls`, `reasoning`, and `reasoning_content` as None
up front, matching the pattern already used in gemini_native_adapter.py.
Key-present arguments still override the defaults.

Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
Mirrors openclaw beta.8's app-server resilience fixes so a stuck codex
subprocess can't burn the full turn deadline and so users get a
`codex login` pointer instead of raw RPC errors when their token expires.
- TurnResult.should_retire signals the caller to drop+respawn codex.
- Deadline-hit path and dead-subprocess detection set should_retire so
the next turn doesn't ride a CPU-spinning or auth-broken process.
- Post-tool watchdog (post_tool_quiet_timeout=90s): if a tool item
completes and codex goes silent past the threshold without further
output or turn/completed, fast-fail instead of waiting the full 600s.
Resets on any non-tool activity so normal think-after-tool flows are
not affected.
- <turn_aborted> and <turn_aborted/> in agent text are treated as
terminal — some codex builds tear down a turn that way without
emitting turn/completed.
- _classify_oauth_failure() inspects RPC error message + stderr tail
for invalid_grant / token refresh / 401 / etc. and rewrites
user-facing errors to 'run codex login'. Conservative: generic
failures still surface verbatim. Fires at turn/start failure,
turn/completed failure, and dead-subprocess paths.
- thread/start cross-fill: tolerate thread.id, thread.sessionId,
top-level sessionId/threadId so future codex schema drift doesn't
KeyError us at handshake.
- run_agent.py: when run_turn returns should_retire=True OR raises,
close + null self._codex_session so the next turn respawns.
