helix4u and others added 30 commits May 3, 2026 00:32
When send_message tool is called from inside a running gateway, the
_run_async bridge spawns a worker thread with a separate event loop.
send_weixin_direct then reuses the live adapter's aiohttp session
which was created on the gateway's main loop.  aiohttp's TimerContext
checks asyncio.current_task(loop=session._loop) and sees None because
we're executing on the worker thread's loop → raises 'Timeout context
manager should be used inside a task'.

Fix: skip the live-adapter shortcut when the session belongs to a
different event loop, falling through to the fresh-session path.
Enable OpenRouter's response caching feature (beta) via X-OpenRouter-Cache
headers. When enabled, identical API requests return cached responses for
free (zero billing), reducing both latency and cost.

Configuration via config.yaml:
  openrouter:
    response_cache: true       # default: on
    response_cache_ttl: 300    # 1-86400 seconds

Changes:
- Add openrouter config section to DEFAULT_CONFIG (response_cache + TTL)
- Add build_or_headers() in auxiliary_client.py that builds attribution
  headers plus optional cache headers based on config
- Replace inline _OR_HEADERS dicts with build_or_headers() at all 5 sites:
  run_agent.py __init__, _apply_client_headers_for_base_url(), and
  auxiliary_client.py _try_openrouter() + _to_async_client()
- Add _check_openrouter_cache_status() method to AIAgent that reads
  X-OpenRouter-Cache-Status from streaming response headers and logs
  HIT/MISS status
- Document in cli-config.yaml.example
- Add 28 tests (22 unit + 6 integration)

Ref: https://openrouter.ai/docs/guides/features/response-caching
- TestClampCommandNamesTriples: unit tests for 3-tuple support in
  _clamp_command_names (short names, long names, collisions, multiple
  entries, backward compat with 2-tuples)
- TestDiscordSkillCmdKeyDispatch: integration test through the full
  discord_skill_commands pipeline verifying long skill names retain
  their original cmd_key after clamping
- Add contributor CharlieKerfoot to AUTHOR_MAP
Slash commands (_run_simple_slash, _handle_thread_create_slash) bypassed
every DISCORD_ALLOWED_* gate enforced by on_message. Any guild member
could invoke /background (RCE via terminal), /restart, /model, /skill,
etc. CVSS 9.8 Critical.

- _evaluate_slash_authorization mirrors on_message gates (user, role,
  channel, ignored channel) with fail-closed semantics
- _check_slash_authorization sends ephemeral reject + logs + admin alert
- Auth gate runs before defer() so rejections are ephemeral
- /skill autocomplete returns [] for unauthorized users (no catalog leak)
- Component views (ExecApproval, SlashConfirm, UpdatePrompt, ModelPicker)
  now honor role allowlists via shared _component_check_auth helper
- Optional DISCORD_HIDE_SLASH_COMMANDS defense-in-depth
- Cross-platform admin alert (Telegram/Slack fallback) on unauthorized attempts

…ket Mode connections

SlackAdapter.connect() overwrote self._handler, self._app, and
self._socket_mode_task without closing the prior AsyncSocketModeHandler
first. If connect() was called a second time on the same adapter (e.g.
during a gateway restart or in-process reconnect attempt), the old Socket
Mode websocket stayed alive. Both the old and new connections received
every Slack event and dispatched it twice — producing double responses
with different wording, the same bug that affected DiscordAdapter (NousResearch#18187,
fixed in NousResearch#18758).

Fix: add a close-before-reassign guard at the start of the connection
setup path, mirroring the guard DiscordAdapter.connect() already has.
When self._handler is None (fresh adapter, first connect()) the block is
a harmless no-op. Scoped to the handler/app fields only — no behavior
change for any path that does not call connect() twice.

Fixes NousResearch#18980
…suspend

suspend_recently_active() was unconditionally setting suspended=True on
startup, causing get_or_create_session() to wipe conversation history on
every restart. Change to set resume_pending=True instead, so sessions
auto-resume while still allowing stuck-loop escalation after 3 failures.
…avoid race (NousResearch#18912)

When /new is issued while an agent is actively processing, the confirmation response was never sent to the user because cancel_session_processing() was called before _send_with_retry(). Task cancellation side effects could silently drop the response.

Fix: reorder to send the response BEFORE cancelling the old task. Add logging at the send point (matching the pattern at line 2800 in _process_message_background) so future failures are visible.

Closes: NousResearch#18912
Tests updated to reflect suspend_recently_active now setting
resume_pending=True (preserves session) instead of suspended=True
(wipes session history).

…itical vulns (NousResearch#19204)

The whatsapp-bridge pulls @whiskeysockets/baileys at a pinned git
commit whose transitive dep tree ships protobufjs <7.5.5, triggering
GHSA-xq3m-2v4x-88gg (critical, arbitrary code execution). npm audit
reported 3 cascading criticals: protobufjs, @whiskeysockets/libsignal-node
(pulls protobufjs), and baileys itself (effect rollup).

Fix: add npm overrides block pinning protobufjs to ^7.5.5. Deduplicates
to a single 7.5.6 copy at node_modules/protobufjs that both libsignal-node
and any other consumers resolve through normal module resolution.

Why not bump baileys: npm-published baileys@6.17.16 is deprecated by the
maintainers (wrong version), 7.0.0-rc.* still pulls the same vulnerable
libsignal-node, and upstream Baileys HEAD adds a 4th vuln (music-metadata).
The override is the minimal, behavior-preserving fix.

Validation:
- npm audit: 3 critical -> 0 vulnerabilities
- node -e "import('@whiskeysockets/baileys')" -> all 5 named exports
  (makeWASocket, useMultiFileAuthState, DisconnectReason,
  fetchLatestBaileysVersion, downloadMediaMessage) resolve
- node bridge.js loads all modules and reaches Express bind
  (exits only on EADDRINUSE because the live gateway owns :3000)
- Single deduped protobufjs@7.5.6 in the tree
…ousResearch#19209)

/goal was silently broken outside the classic CLI.

TUI: /goal was routed through the HermesCLI slash-worker subprocess,
which set the goal row in SessionDB but then called
_pending_input.put(state.goal) — the subprocess has no reader for that
queue, so the kickoff message was discarded. No post-turn judge was
wired into prompt.submit either, so even a manual kickoff would not
continue the goal loop. Intercept /goal in command.dispatch instead,
drive GoalManager directly, and return {type: send, notice, message}
so the TUI client renders the Goal-set notice and fires the kickoff.
Run the judge in _run_prompt_submit after message.complete, surface
the verdict via status.update {kind: goal}, and chain the continuation
turn after the running guard is released.

Gateway: _post_turn_goal_continuation was gated on
hasattr(adapter, 'send_message'), but adapters only expose send().
That branch was dead on every platform — users never saw
'✓ Goal achieved', 'Continuing toward goal', or budget-exhausted
messages. Replace the dead call with adapter.send(chat_id, content,
metadata) and drop a broken reference to self._loop.

Tests:
- tests/tui_gateway/test_goal_command.py — full /goal dispatch matrix
  (set / status / pause / resume / clear / stop / done / whitespace)
  plus regressions for slash.exec → 4018 and 'goal' staying in
  _PENDING_INPUT_COMMANDS.
- tests/gateway/test_goal_verdict_send.py — locks in the adapter.send
  path for done / continue / budget-exhausted and verifies the hook
  no-ops when no goal is set or the adapter lacks send().
…edential files

Terminal commands can write to shell RC files (~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc,
~/.profile) and credential files (~/.netrc, ~/.pgpass, ~/.npmrc,
~/.pypirc) via redirection or tee without triggering approval, even
though write_file already blocks these paths in file_safety.py.

This creates an inconsistency: write_file protects these paths but
terminal shell redirections bypass the same protection. An agent
prompted via indirect injection could install persistent backdoors
(e.g. PATH manipulation, alias overrides) or write credential entries
without user approval.

Extend _SENSITIVE_WRITE_TARGET with two new regex groups matching the
same paths that file_safety.py's WRITE_DENIED_PATHS already covers:
  _SHELL_RC_FILES  — ~/.bashrc, ~/.zshrc, ~/.profile, ~/.bash_profile,
                     ~/.zprofile
  _CREDENTIAL_FILES — ~/.netrc, ~/.pgpass, ~/.npmrc, ~/.pypirc

All 130 existing tests pass.
``_resolve_origin`` called ``origin.get('platform')`` on whatever
``job.get('origin')`` returned. The leading ``if not origin: return None``
short-circuited the falsy cases (None, empty dict, "") but a non-empty
string passed that guard and then crashed with
``AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'get'`` on every fire
attempt. Observed in the wild after a migration script tagged jobs with
free-form provenance strings (e.g.
``"combined-digest-replaces-x-and-y-20260503"``).

``mark_job_run`` did record ``last_status: error,
last_error: "'str' object has no attribute 'get'"`` once, but the next
tick re-loaded the same poisoned origin and crashed identically. The
job stayed enabled, fired every tick, and accumulated cascading errors
in the log until ``origin`` was patched manually.

Replace the falsy guard with ``isinstance(origin, dict)``. Non-dict
origins (string, int, list, tuple, float — anything that survived a
hand-edit, JSON-script write, or migration) are now treated the same
as a missing origin: the job continues with ``deliver`` falling back
through its normal home-channel path instead of crashing the scheduler
loop.

Test parametrises the non-dict shapes that can appear in jobs.json
through external writers and asserts ``_resolve_origin`` returns None
for each.

Note: this fix scope is the non-dict-``origin`` crash only. The
``next_run_at: null`` recurring-job recovery (the second sub-bug in
NousResearch#18722) is independently addressed by the in-flight NousResearch#18825, which
extends the never-silently-disable defense from NousResearch#16265 to
``get_due_jobs()`` — that approach is well-aligned with the existing
recovery pattern and ships fine without a competing change here.

Fixes NousResearch#18722 (non-dict origin crash; recurring-job recovery covered by NousResearch#18825)

…rgs instead of silently writing zero-byte files (NousResearch#19096)

Under context pressure, frontier models sometimes emit tool calls with
required fields dropped. Previously _handle_write_file() used
args.get('content', '') which substituted an empty string for the missing
key, returned success with bytes_written=0, and created a zero-byte file
on disk. The model had no way to detect the failure.

Changes:
- Reject calls where 'path' is absent or not a non-empty string
- Reject calls where 'content' key is entirely absent (key-presence check,
  not truthiness) — distinguishing a legitimately empty file from a dropped arg
- Reject calls where 'content' is a non-string type
- All error messages include guidance to re-emit the tool call or switch
  to execute_code with hermes_tools.write_file() for large payloads
- Explicit empty string content (file truncation) continues to work

Regression tests added for all four cases: missing path, missing content,
explicit-empty content, and wrong content type.

Fixes NousResearch#19096
Use a deeper alt-screen clear for Apple Terminal resize repaints so host reflow artifacts do not survive the recovery frame.
…al-resize-jumble

fix(tui): clear Apple Terminal resize artifacts
Meta-pipeline that wraps any video request — narrative film, product /
marketing, music video, explainer, ASCII, generative, comic, 3D,
real-time/installation — in a Hermes Kanban pipeline. Performs adaptive
discovery, designs an appropriate team for the requested style, generates
the setup script that creates Hermes profiles + initial kanban task, and
helps monitor execution.

Routes scenes to whichever existing Hermes skill fits each beat
(`ascii-video`, `manim-video`, `p5js`, `comfyui`, `touchdesigner-mcp`,
`blender-mcp`, `pixel-art`, `baoyu-comic`, `claude-design`, `excalidraw`,
`songsee`, `heartmula`, …) plus external APIs for TTS, image-gen, and
image-to-video. Kanban orchestration uses the `kanban-orchestrator` and
`kanban-worker` skills.

The single-project workspace layout, profile-config patching pattern,
SOUL.md-per-profile model, and `--workspace dir:<path>` discipline are
adapted from alt-glitch's original kanban-video-pipeline at
https://github.com/NousResearch/kanban-video-pipeline. This skill
generalizes those patterns across video styles and replaces the original
string-replacement config patcher with a PyYAML-based one that touches
only `toolsets` and `skills.always_load` (preserving security-sensitive
fields like `approvals.mode`).

Includes:
- SKILL.md — workflow + critical rules
- references/ — intake, role archetypes, tool matrix, kanban setup,
  monitoring, six worked examples
- assets/ — brief / setup.sh / soul.md templates
- scripts/ — bootstrap_pipeline.py (plan.json -> setup.sh) and
  monitor.py (poll + issue detection)

Co-authored-by: alt-glitch <balyan.sid@gmail.com>
The kanban prefix makes the skill discoverable alongside `kanban-orchestrator`
and `kanban-worker`, and signals up front that this skill drives the kanban
plugin rather than being a generic video tool.

Updated:
- directory rename
- SKILL.md frontmatter `name:` and H1
- setup.sh.tmpl header
…arch#19301)

* feat: add video_analyze tool for native video understanding

Adds a video_analyze tool that sends video files to multimodal LLMs
(e.g. Gemini) for analysis via the OpenRouter-compatible video_url
content type. Mirrors vision_analyze in structure, error handling,
and registration pattern.

Key design:
- Base64 encodes entire video (no frame extraction, no ffmpeg dep)
- Uses 'video_url' content block type (OpenRouter standard)
- Supports mp4, webm, mov, avi, mkv, mpeg formats
- 50 MB hard cap, 20 MB warning threshold
- 180s minimum timeout (videos take longer than images)
- AUXILIARY_VIDEO_MODEL env override, falls back to AUXILIARY_VISION_MODEL
- Same SSRF protection, retry logic, and cleanup as vision_analyze

Default disabled: registered in 'video' toolset (not in _HERMES_CORE_TOOLS).
Users opt in via: hermes tools enable video, or enabled_toolsets=['video'].

* feat(video): add models.dev capability pre-check + CONFIGURABLE_TOOLSETS entry

- Pre-checks model video capability via models.dev modalities.input
  before expensive base64 encoding. Fails early with helpful message
  suggesting video-capable alternatives (gemini, mimo-v2.5-pro).
- Passes optimistically if model unknown or lookup fails.
- Adds ModelInfo.supports_video_input() helper.
- Adds 'video' to CONFIGURABLE_TOOLSETS and _DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS
  so 'hermes tools enable video' works from CLI.
- 8 new tests for the capability check (37 total).

* refactor(video): remove models.dev capability pre-check

Removes _check_video_model_capability and ModelInfo.supports_video_input.
The vision_analyze tool doesn't pre-check image capability either — both
tools rely on the same pattern: send request, handle API errors gracefully
with categorized user-facing messages. The pre-check was inconsistent
(only worked for some providers/models) so drop it for parity.

* cleanup: compress comments, fix fragile timeout coupling

- Replace _VISION_DOWNLOAD_TIMEOUT * 2 with hardcoded 60s (no silent
  breakage if vision timeout changes independently)
- Strip verbose comments and redundant log lines throughout
- No behavioral changes

* fix(auxiliary): pass cfg_base_url and cfg_api_key when resolving task provider

_resolve_task_provider_model drops cfg_base_url and cfg_api_key when
returning a named provider, causing configured API keys and base URLs
to be lost. Pass them through so named providers can use custom
endpoints while still resolving credentials from provider-specific
env vars.

Closes #20139

* fix(dashboard): skip browser-open on headless Linux to prevent process exit

Fixes #24127

On headless Linux VPS (no DISPLAY or WAYLAND_DISPLAY), some Python
webbrowser backends register TUI programs such as links, lynx, or
www-browser.  GenericBrowser.open() spawns these without redirecting
stdin/stdout, allowing them to take over the terminal.  This can cause
the process to receive SIGHUP and exit immediately even though uvicorn
bound the port successfully, producing a misleading success message
followed by an empty --status.

Fix: detect headless Linux at startup and skip the auto-open when no
display server is available.  On such systems the URL is still printed
so the user can open it manually or via an SSH tunnel.  The webbrowser
call is also wrapped in a try/except so any unexpected failure on other
platforms is silently absorbed rather than surfacing as an unhandled
exception in the daemon thread.

* fix(cli): use display-width for response box header label to support CJK

Replace `len(label)` with `HermesCLI._status_bar_display_width(label)`
in two places where the response box top border is rendered.

`len()` counts characters, not terminal columns. CJK characters like
`测` and `试` each occupy 2 columns, causing the top border
`╭─ 测试 ───╮` to render 2 columns wider than the bottom border
`╰─────────╯`.

The `_status_bar_display_width` helper already exists (line 2881) and
uses `prompt_toolkit.utils.get_cwidth` for proper CJK width calculation.

* fix(cli): @-file completion crash on Windows when paths aren't cp1252-decodable

The fuzzy @-file completer shells out to 'rg --files' via subprocess.run
with text=True. On Windows, Python 3.13 decodes stdout using the system
ANSI codepage (cp1252), so any filename containing bytes like 0x81/0x8f
crashes the background reader thread with UnicodeDecodeError. The
exception is swallowed inside subprocess, leaving proc.stdout=None, and
the next line ('proc.stdout.strip()') blows up with:

  AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'strip'

This takes down the prompt_toolkit event loop and forces 'Press ENTER to
continue' until the user clears the @-query.

Fix:
- Pass encoding='utf-8', errors='replace' so rg's UTF-8 output is decoded
  consistently across platforms and unmappable bytes don't crash.
- Guard 'proc.stdout' with a None check before .strip(), so a future
  reader-thread failure degrades gracefully instead of breaking input.

* fix(telegram): clear in-progress reaction on cancelled processing (#24628)

When the user runs /stop or a session is interrupted mid-flight, the
👀 in-progress reaction lingered on the user's message indefinitely.
Without another agent run to swap it for 👍/👎, the eyes stayed there
forever — visually misleading (looks like the agent is still working).

Fix: on ProcessingOutcome.CANCELLED, call set_message_reaction with
reaction=None to clear all reactions on the message. Documented Bot API
semantics (equivalent to Bot API 10.0's deleteMessageReaction, but works
on PTB 22.6 already without the version bump).

Test changes:
- Renamed test_on_processing_complete_cancelled_keeps_existing_reaction
  → test_on_processing_complete_cancelled_clears_reaction; updated
  assertion to expect set_message_reaction(reaction=None).
- Added test_on_processing_complete_cancelled_skipped_when_disabled
  (TELEGRAM_REACTIONS=false short-circuits).
- Added test_clear_reactions_handles_api_error_gracefully and
  test_clear_reactions_returns_false_without_bot to cover the new
  _clear_reactions helper.

* fix(lsp): typescript SDK install + tsc-missing skip + shellcheck warning (#24630)

Three follow-ups to PR #24168 found during live E2E testing on TS/bash files:

1. typescript-language-server now installs the typescript SDK (tsserver)
   alongside it. Without that sibling install, initialize() failed with
   "Could not find a valid TypeScript installation" and the server was
   marked broken — no diagnostics ever reached the agent. New extra_pkgs
   field on INSTALL_RECIPES makes that explicit and reusable for future
   peer-dep cases.

2. _check_lint now treats "linter command exists on PATH but cannot
   actually run" as skipped instead of error. The motivating case is
   npx tsc when typescript is not in node_modules — npx prints its
   "This is not the tsc command you are looking for" banner and exits
   non-zero, which previously blocked the LSP semantic tier (gated on
   success or skipped). Pattern-matched per base command (npx,
   rustfmt, go) so genuine lint errors still flow through normally.

3. hermes lsp status now surfaces a Backend warnings section when
   bash-language-server is installed but shellcheck is missing. The
   server itself spawns fine but bash-language-server delegates
   diagnostics to shellcheck — without it on PATH the integration
   looks alive but never reports any problems. Same warning is
   logged once at server spawn time.

Validation:

- 12 new tests in tests/agent/lsp/test_install_and_lint_fixes.py:
    * recipe carries typescript SDK
    * _install_npm passes both pkg + extras to npm CLI
    * backwards compat: recipes without extras still work
    * _backend_warnings quiet when bash absent / both present
    * _backend_warnings fires when bash installed without shellcheck
    * status output includes the Backend warnings section
    * _looks_like_linter_unusable catches the npx tsc banner
    * real TS type errors not misclassified as unusable
    * unfamiliar linters fall through normally
    * _check_lint returns skipped on npx tsc unusable
    * _check_lint returns error on real tsc type errors
- Full lsp + file_operations test suite: 245/245 pass
- Live E2E:
    * try_install("typescript-language-server") installs both packages
      into node_modules
    * write_file(bad.ts, ...) returns lint=skipped + lsp_diagnostics
      with two real TS errors (was lint=error, no lsp_diagnostics)
    * hermes lsp status renders the shellcheck warning when bash is
      installed but shellcheck is not on PATH

* docs(gateway): mention Weixin in gateway help and docstrings

Salvage of #21063 — adds 'Weixin, and more' to module-level docstrings

* fix(send_message): recognize XMPP JIDs as explicit targets

_parse_target_ref() has no handler for XMPP JIDs (user@server or
room@conference.server), so they fall through to the final
`return None, None, False`. This causes send_message to fail when
targeting an XMPP chat by JID, since the JID is not numeric and
doesn't match any other platform pattern.

Add an explicit check for XMPP targets containing '@', matching the
existing Matrix pattern above it.

* fix(doctor): skip /models health check for providers that don't support it

Xiaomi MiMo's /v1/models endpoint returns 401 even with a valid API key,
causing hermes doctor to falsely report 'invalid API key'.

Add a `supports_health_check` field to ProviderProfile (default True).
Providers whose /models endpoint doesn't support auth verification can
set it to False. The doctor's dynamic provider discovery now reads this
field instead of hardcoding True.

The xiaomi provider plugin sets supports_health_check=False.

* fix(web): add Bearer auth header for Tavily /crawl endpoint

Tavily's /crawl endpoint requires Authorization: Bearer <key> in the header,
unlike /search and /extract which accept api_key in the JSON body.
Without the header, crawl returns 401 Unauthorized.

* fix(cron): include whatsapp in _HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS

Cron jobs using `deliver: whatsapp` were silently dropped because the
resolver's home-channel env var dict in cron/scheduler.py listed every
messaging platform except whatsapp. _resolve_delivery_targets() returned
[] and no message was sent — but jobs.json marked the run successful and
no log line surfaced the failure.

The gateway adapter and the send_message tool path both honored
WHATSAPP_HOME_CHANNEL correctly; only the cron path missed.

Adds 'whatsapp' -> 'WHATSAPP_HOME_CHANNEL' to _HOME_TARGET_ENV_VARS.
Verified end-to-end with multiple cron pings landing in WhatsApp
self-chat after the fix.

Fixes #22997

* fix(cache): drop ttl=1h on Portal Qwen — Alibaba upstream is 5m-only (#24702)

PR #24151 routed Portal Qwen (qwen3.6-plus) through the prefix_and_2
long-lived cache layout, attaching {"type":"ephemeral","ttl":"1h"}
markers to the tools[-1] entry and the stable system-prefix block.
That layout works for Portal Claude because Anthropic / OpenRouter on
Anthropic routes honour 1h TTL — but Portal Qwen ultimately proxies to
Alibaba DashScope, which documents a single "ephemeral" TTL of 5
minutes on its Context Cache. The ttl="1h" qualifier is silently
dropped upstream, so the two highest-value breakpoints (tools array +
system prefix) never land. Only the rolling-window 5m markers on the
last 2 messages cache, which matches the observed ~25% read rate.

Fix: keep Portal Qwen on cache_control via _anthropic_prompt_cache_policy
returning (True, False), but drop it from _supports_long_lived_anthropic_cache
so it rides the standard system_and_3 5m layout (system + last 3 messages,
all at 5m). Same 4 breakpoints, all in a TTL the upstream actually honours.

* fix(retry): use float() for Retry-After header to handle sub-second values

* fix(signal): handle group messages from linked devices in syncMessage path

Closes #23064

When Hermes connects to Signal via signal-cli in daemon mode (linked
device setup), group messages sent from the user's phone were silently
dropped. The syncMessage handler only processed events where
destinationNumber equals the bot's own number (Note to Self).

Group messages from linked devices carry a groupInfo.groupId instead of a
destinationNumber. Extend the condition to also pass through sync messages
that have a groupId, so group messages are promoted to dataMessage and
reach the agent.

* fix(voice_mode): detect audio in WSL when sd.query_devices() returns empty list but PULSE_SERVER is set

In WSL2, sounddevice.query_devices() returns [] even when the
PulseAudio bridge is functional. The existing code already handled
the case where the query itself raises an exception, but it missed
the empty-list case.

This change treats an empty device list as non-fatal in WSL when
PULSE_SERVER is configured, matching the existing exception-handler
behavior.

Fixes: WSL users seeing 'No audio input/output devices detected'
even though paplay/arecord work fine.

* fix(tui): use TERMINAL_CWD in _session_info for accurate status line path

_session_info() used os.getcwd() which reflects the gateway process
working directory, not the user's actual working directory. This caused
the TUI status line to display incorrect paths (e.g. D:\HermesWork
instead of D:\Hermes\HermesWork) after agent turns that changed the
process cwd.

Align with session.create which already correctly reads TERMINAL_CWD
env var set by the CLI launcher.

* docs(lsp): document follow-up fixes from #24630 (#24709)

- Note that typescript-language-server pulls in the typescript SDK
  automatically (peer-dep relationship was previously implicit and
  caused initialize failures when the SDK was absent).
- Add a Troubleshooting entry for the new Backend warnings section
  in hermes lsp status, with the shellcheck install commands across
  apt / brew / scoop.

Reflects what shipped in PR #24630.

* fix(gateway): add chat_id to hook_ctx for message source tracking

* fix(install): use stash@{0} instead of git rev-parse refs/stash for autostash recovery
Autostash creates refs/stash as a pointer to the latest stash commit, but
git stash apply/drop expect the symbolic ref format like stash@{0}, not
the raw commit SHA. Using the commit SHA causes: error: 'X is not a stash reference'

* fix(telegram): use thread fallback helper in slash-confirm result send

PR #23458 introduced _send_message_with_thread_fallback() and applied it
to all control-style sends (send_update_prompt, send_approval_request,
send_model_picker_prompt), but the slash-confirm result message in
handle_callback_query still called self._bot.send_message directly.

In supergroups with stale message_thread_id on the callback's parent
message, this raises "Message thread not found" and silently swallows
the result text. Replace with the helper so the same retry-without-
thread-id logic applies.

* fix(prompt_builder): inject tool-use enforcement for GLM models

GLM-family models (z-ai/glm-4.5-air, z-ai/glm-4.5-flash, etc.) exhibit
the same "describe-instead-of-call" failure mode that gpt/codex/gemini/
gemma/grok already trigger enforcement for. Without the injection,
free-tier GLM workers spawned by the kanban dispatcher routinely exit
cleanly (rc=0) without invoking kanban_complete or kanban_block,
producing the "protocol violation" error and triggering the dispatcher's
gave_up path.

Observed in real workloads: seven consecutive kanban tasks across three
GLM-tier profiles (shipbackend, frontend-engineer, backend-engineer) all
failed with the identical message:

    worker exited cleanly (rc=0) without calling kanban_complete or
    kanban_block — protocol violation

Re-running the same tasks on Claude Haiku immediately resolved them.
Adding "glm" to TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_MODELS closes the gap so future
GLM-routed work receives the explicit "every response must contain a
tool call or final result" steering that already protects the other
enforcement-gated model families.

One-line change; no behavior change for non-GLM models.

* fix(line): use build_source instead of nonexistent create_source

The LINE adapter calls self.create_source(...) which raises
AttributeError on every inbound message — no such method exists.
The base PlatformAdapter exposes this factory as build_source(),
consistent with the IRC and Teams adapters.

Fixes #23728

* fix(wecom): update connection status after WebSocket reconnection

The WeCom adapter's _listen_loop() automatically reconnects when the
WebSocket drops, but it never called _mark_connected() after a successful
reconnection. This left the runtime status file (gateway_state.json) stuck
in "disconnected" even though the adapter was fully operational again.

Add self._mark_connected() right after _open_connection() succeeds so
that the dashboard and health probes report the correct state.

Tested by forcing a WebSocket close via the heartbeat loop and verifying
that the status file updated from "disconnected" back to "connected".

* fix(tools): forward thread_id via metadata in _send_via_adapter live path

The live adapter path in _send_via_adapter called adapter.send() without
passing thread_id, while the standalone fallback path correctly forwarded
it. For plugin platforms (google_chat, teams, irc, line) running with the
gateway in-process, this caused every threaded reply to land as a new
top-level message instead of continuing the thread.

Matches the pattern already used by _send_matrix_via_adapter and
_send_feishu: build metadata={"thread_id": thread_id} and pass it through.

* fix(gateway): make WhatsApp npm install timeout configurable

Default timeout raised from 60s to 300s (5 minutes) to accommodate
slower systems like Unraid NAS. Configurable via WHATSAPP_NPM_INSTALL_TIMEOUT
environment variable.

* fix(test): use i18n t() for restart drain assertion

The test_restart_command_while_busy_requests_drain_without_interrupt test
was asserting against a hardcoded emoji string that was valid before the
i18n migration. After gateway/run.py switched to t("gateway.draining",
count=N), the test sees the translated output (or the raw key when the
locale catalog isn't resolved in xdist workers).

Fix by asserting against t("gateway.draining", count=1) — this produces
the correct expected value regardless of whether the locale file is
available in the test environment.

* fix(agent): clear stale config context_length on model switch

When switching models via /model, AIAgent._config_context_length was
never cleared, so the new model inherited the previous model's context
window instead of auto-detecting the correct one via
get_model_context_length().

Clear _config_context_length to None before the runtime field swap so
the full resolution chain (custom_providers per-model, endpoint probe,
models.dev, etc.) is re-evaluated for the newly selected model.

Closes #21509

* fix: approval DELETE pattern DOTALL flag allows newline bypass

* fix(cache): kill long-lived prefix layout — system prompt is now byte-static within a session (#24778)

The long-lived prefix-cache layout split the system prompt into stable/
context/volatile blocks and re-derived them on every API call. The
volatile tier (timestamp + memory snapshot + USER profile) ticks per
turn, so the system message bytes mutated mid-conversation and broke
upstream prompt caches (OpenRouter, Nous Portal, Anthropic).

Diagnosed via live wire-format diffing: an 8-turn conversation showed
OLD layout flipping system block[1] sha mid-session at the minute
boundary, dropping cached_tokens to 0 on that turn (cumulative
66.6% vs 83.3% for the single-block layout). Hermes invariant:
history (system + all but the last 1-2 messages) must be static.

Fix: drop the long-lived layout entirely. Single layout everywhere —
system_and_3 with one cached system string built once on first turn,
replayed verbatim on every subsequent turn. Loses cross-session 1h
prefix caching for Claude (the feature that motivated the split), but
within-session caching now actually works on every provider.

Removed:
- run_agent.py: _use_long_lived_prefix_cache flag, _long_lived_cache_ttl,
  _supports_long_lived_anthropic_cache method, the long-lived branch in
  run_conversation, mark_tools_for_long_lived_cache call site
- agent/prompt_caching.py: apply_anthropic_cache_control_long_lived,
  mark_tools_for_long_lived_cache, _mark_system_stable_block helper
- hermes_cli/config.py: prompt_caching.long_lived_prefix and
  prompt_caching.long_lived_ttl config keys
- tests/agent/test_prompt_caching_live.py (entire file)

Targeted tests: 62/62 pass.

* feat(nous): unified client=hermes-client-v<version> tag on every Portal request (#24779)

* feat(nous): unified client=hermes-client-v<version> tag on every Portal request

Every Hermes request to Nous Portal now carries the same
client=hermes-client-v<__version__> tag (e.g. client=hermes-client-v0.13.0
on this release), sourced live from hermes_cli.__version__. The release
script's regex bump auto-aligns it on every release.

Centralized in agent/portal_tags.py and wired into all four call sites:
- NousProfile.build_extra_body (main agent loop, every chat completion)
- auxiliary_client.NOUS_EXTRA_BODY + _build_call_kwargs (aux client)
- run_agent.py compression-summary fallback path
- tools/web_tools.py web_extract fallback

Replaces the client=aux marker added in #24194 with the unified version
tag. Tests assert against the helper output (invariant) rather than the
literal string, so they don't need updating on every release.

* feat(nous): cover /goal judge and kanban specify aux paths

Two aux-using surfaces bypassed call_llm by invoking
client.chat.completions.create() directly without extra_body, so they
were missing the unified Portal client tag:

- hermes_cli/goals.py — /goal standing-goal judge
- hermes_cli/kanban_specify.py — kanban triage specifier

Both now pass extra_body=get_auxiliary_extra_body() or None so they
inherit the version tag when the aux client points at Nous Portal, and
emit nothing otherwise (no tag leak to OpenRouter/Anthropic auxes).

* feat(providers): rename Alibaba Cloud to Qwen Cloud, reorder picker (#24835)

- Rename 'Alibaba Cloud (DashScope)' display label to 'Qwen Cloud'
  in CANONICAL_PROVIDERS (model picker, /model, hermes model TUI) and
  PROVIDER_REGISTRY (setup wizard prompts, status output).
- Move Qwen Cloud (alibaba) up to position 6 — directly below
  OpenAI Codex and above Xiaomi MiMo.
- Move Qwen OAuth (Portal) (qwen-oauth) to the bottom of the
  canonical provider list.

Provider slug 'alibaba' is unchanged — only the display label
moved. DashScope env var (DASHSCOPE_API_KEY) and base URL are
unchanged. The separate 'alibaba-coding-plan' plugin provider is
not affected.

* fix(docker): chown .venv to hermes so lazy_deps can install platform packages (#24841)

The Dockerfile permissions section made /opt/hermes/.venv readable but not
writable by the hermes runtime user.  Since the 2026-05-12 policy change
moved messaging packages (discord.py, telegram, slack, etc.) out of [all]
and into lazy_deps.py, the Docker image no longer ships with them
pre-installed.  At first gateway boot, lazy_deps.ensure() tries to
`uv pip install` them into the venv but fails with EACCES because
site-packages is root-owned.

The result: every messaging platform adapter silently fails to load inside
Docker containers, producing only a cryptic "discord.py not installed"
warning despite the gateway being correctly configured.

Two-part fix:

1. Dockerfile: add /opt/hermes/.venv to the existing chown -R hermes:hermes
   line so the default (UID 10000) case works out of the box.

2. docker/entrypoint.sh: extend the needs_chown block to also re-chown the
   .venv when HERMES_UID is remapped. Without this, the build-time chown
   becomes stale when someone uses the documented HERMES_UID override in
   docker-compose.yml.

* fix(cli): add 'lsp' to _BUILTIN_SUBCOMMANDS so plugin discovery is skipped

`lsp` is registered as a top-level subparser in `main()` (lines 9539-9545)
via `agent.lsp.cli.register_subparser`, so it shows up in `hermes --help`
output alongside the other built-ins. The `_BUILTIN_SUBCOMMANDS` set used
by `_plugin_cli_discovery_needed` to short-circuit the ~500-650ms plugin
import pass did not list it, so every `hermes lsp ...` invocation paid
the full discovery cost despite being a fully-built-in command.

This is also caught by the parity guard added in #22120:
`tests/hermes_cli/test_startup_plugin_gating.py::test_builtin_set_covers_every_registered_subcommand`
has been failing on clean origin/main with:

    AssertionError: _BUILTIN_SUBCOMMANDS is missing these live
    subcommands: ['lsp']. Add them to hermes_cli/main.py::_BUILTIN_SUBCOMMANDS
    so plugin discovery can be skipped when the user targets them.

Fix: add `"lsp"` to the frozenset (alphabetical position between `logs`
and `mcp`). The accompanying `test_builtin_set_has_no_phantom_entries`
guard still passes because `lsp` is genuinely live — registered via the
guarded `try/except Exception` in main() since #24168.

* fix: classify landed file mutations with diagnostics

* refactor: import FILE_MUTATING_TOOL_NAMES from shared module

Drops the duplicate _FILE_MUTATING_TOOLS frozenset in run_agent.py and
imports the canonical FILE_MUTATING_TOOL_NAMES from
agent/tool_result_classification.py (aliased as _FILE_MUTATING_TOOLS to
avoid renaming the existing call sites). Prevents future drift if
another file-mutating tool is added — only one set needs updating.

No behavior change: same frozenset({'write_file', 'patch'}), and the
117 PR-scoped tests still pass.

* fix(gateway): add lazy_deps.ensure() to slack, matrix, dingtalk, feishu adapters (#25014)

Only Discord and Telegram had lazy-install hooks in their
check_*_requirements() functions. The remaining four platforms that were
moved to lazy_deps (Slack, Matrix, DingTalk, Feishu) would just return
False immediately if their packages weren't pre-installed — no attempt
to install them at runtime.

This means even with the .venv permissions fix (#24841), these four
platforms would still fail to load in Docker (or any fresh install)
unless the user manually ran pip install.

Add the same lazy_deps.ensure() pattern to all four, matching the
existing Discord/Telegram implementation.

* ci(docker): split :latest (releases only) from :main (main HEAD)

Previously :latest tracked the tip of main, which meant pulling :latest
got you whatever was last merged — fine for development, surprising for
users who expect :latest to mean 'the most recent stable release'.

Reshape the publish flow so the floating tags carry their conventional
meaning:

  - :sha-<sha>      every main commit (unchanged, immutable)
  - :main           tip of main (NEW; what :latest used to do)
  - :<release_tag>  every published release, e.g. :v1.2.3 (unchanged)
  - :latest         most recent release (CHANGED; release-only now)

Implementation:

  - Rename the move-latest job to move-main; it still gates on push to
    main, still ancestor-checks the existing :main label before
    retagging, still uses cancel-in-progress: false so queued moves run
    serially.

  - Add a new move-latest job gated on release: published. Reads the
    OCI revision label off the existing :latest and only advances if
    the release commit is a strict descendant. This keeps backport
    releases on older branches (e.g. patching v1.1.5 after v1.2.3 has
    already shipped) from dragging :latest backwards.

  - merge job exposes pushed_release_tag and release_tag outputs so
    move-latest knows when to fire and what to retag from.

* fix(cli): repair broken zsh completion generation

* test(cli): strengthen zsh completion regression coverage

* refactor(profiles): remove dead generate_bash_completion / generate_zsh_completion

These two functions in hermes_cli/profiles.py have no callers — the live
`hermes completion {bash,zsh}` command uses hermes_cli/completion.py's
generate_bash() / generate_zsh() instead. Multiple PRs (incl. #6141) tried
to fix the trailing-`_hermes "$@"` zsh bug here, only to discover the
patch never reached users. Delete the dead code so future contributors
patch the right file.

The actual user-facing fix lives in the preceding cherry-picked commits
to hermes_cli/completion.py.

* chore(release): map anton.kuenzi@gmail.com -> ZeterMordio

- memory_setup.py: use shlex.split() for plugin dep checks instead of shell=True

* chore(release): map iuyup author for PR #6155 salvage

* feat(custom): prompt and persist explicit api_mode for custom providers

Adds an explicit API compatibility mode prompt to the `hermes model -> custom`
flow so Codex-compatible third-party endpoints (and any other non-default
backend whose URL doesn't match the existing heuristics in
`_detect_api_mode_for_url`) can be selected explicitly instead of silently
falling back to chat_completions.

Choices: Auto-detect / chat_completions / codex_responses / anthropic_messages.

Persists `api_mode` to:
  - `model.api_mode` (active session config)
  - the matching `custom_providers[*]` entry (so re-activating the named
    provider next time replays the same transport)

Salvaged from PR #6125 onto current main: kept the new prompt and the
`_save_custom_provider(api_mode=...)` plumbing; the named-custom flow
already extracts and applies `api_mode` from the saved entry on current
main so those changes are preserved as-is. Test fixtures updated for the
new prompt and the existing display-name prompt.

* fix(setup): drop post-setup chat handoff (#25067)

Removes the 'Launch hermes chat now? (Y/n)' prompt at the end of
hermes setup. The summary already prints 'Ready to go! → hermes'
so the auto-launch was redundant, and on macOS 26+ it could crash
in prompt_toolkit when setup was invoked from the curl install
script with stdin redirected from /dev/tty (#5884, #6128).

After setup, users run 'hermes' themselves like every other CLI
tool. Same pattern applies to the Windows installer.

Closes #6128 (narrower env-var-guarded fix superseded by removing
the prompt outright).

* fix(tools): refuse skill_view name collisions instead of guessing

skill_view ran the direct-path strategy across every skill dir before
the recursive strategy, so a top-level skill in an external dir could
silently shadow a same-named nested local skill. /skills correctly
listed the local version (deduped local-first by _find_all_skills) but
skill_view loaded the external one — confusing, and a real bug class
for users with skills.external_dirs registered alongside categorized
local skills.

Pick a louder fix than @polkn's PR #6136 proposed: collect every match
across all dirs (direct path, recursive by parent dir name, legacy
flat <name>.md), and if there's more than one, refuse with an error
that surfaces every matching path plus a hint to load by the
categorized form. Local-first precedence would have replaced silent
external-shadowing with silent same-name collisions between two
externals, or made an externally-shadowed-by-local skill unreachable
by bare name with no signal. Refusing forces the user to disambiguate
once and never wonder which skill ran.

Recovery: pass the full categorized path
("foundations/runtime/explore-codebase" instead of
"explore-codebase"), or rename one of the colliding skills.

* fix(cli): preserve startup banner on terminal resize

Recover from SIGWINCH without clearing the physical screen or scrollback
buffer. The startup banner and tool summary are printed before
prompt_toolkit owns the live chrome, so they live in normal terminal
scrollback. Calling erase_screen() + \x1b[3J] on every resize removed
that UI permanently — _replay_output_history cannot reconstruct it
because the banner was never added to _OUTPUT_HISTORY.

Instead, just reset prompt_toolkit's renderer cache and invalidate so
the next incremental redraw starts from a clean slate, then let the
original on_resize handler recalculate layout for the new terminal
size. This matches the behaviour of bash/zsh/fish on SIGWINCH.

Fixes NousResearch/hermes-agent#22999

* tui: make URLs clickable + hover-highlight in any terminal (#25071)

* tui: make URLs clickable + hover-highlight in any terminal

Problem
-------
URLs printed by `hermes --tui` were not clickable in basic macOS Terminal.app.
Cmd+click did nothing, the cursor didn't change shape — like nothing was
detected — even though arrow buttons and other Box onClick handlers worked
fine.

Root cause
----------
Two layers of dead plumbing:

1. `<Link>` only emitted the underlying `<ink-link>` (which carries the
   hyperlink metadata into the screen buffer) when `supportsHyperlinks()`
   said yes. On Apple_Terminal that's false, so the per-cell hyperlink
   field stayed empty, so `Ink.getHyperlinkAt()` had nothing to return on
   click. The visible underline was just decorative.

2. `Ink.openHyperlink()` calls `this.onHyperlinkClick?.(url)`, but
   `onHyperlinkClick` was never assigned anywhere in the codebase. The
   click pipeline (`App.tsx → onOpenHyperlink → Ink.openHyperlink`) ran
   but bailed silently on the optional chain.

Bonus discovery: even when wired up, there was no hover affordance —
terminal apps can't change the system mouse cursor, so users had no
visual signal that a cell was clickable. Arrow buttons in the chrome
worked because they had explicit `<Box onClick>` styling; inline link
URLs didn't.

Fix
---
- `Link.tsx`: always emit `<ink-link>` regardless of terminal capability.
  The renderer's `wrapWithOsc8Link` already gates the actual OSC 8 escape
  on `supportsHyperlinks()` further down — so terminals that don't
  understand OSC 8 still don't see the escape, but the screen-buffer
  metadata (which the click dispatcher reads) is now populated everywhere.

- `ink.tsx + root.ts`: add `onHyperlinkClick?: (url: string) => void` to
  `Options` / `RenderOptions`, wire it to the existing `Ink.onHyperlinkClick`
  field in the constructor.

- `src/lib/openExternalUrl.ts`: small platform-aware opener using
  `child_process.spawn` with arg-array (no shell) — http(s) only, rejects
  `file:`, `javascript:`, `data:`, etc., so a hostile model can't trigger
  arbitrary local handlers via `<Link url="file:///...">`. Detached + stdio
  ignore so closing the TUI doesn't kill the browser and Chrome stderr
  doesn't leak into the alt screen.

- `entry.tsx`: pass `onHyperlinkClick: openExternalUrl` to `ink.render`.

- `hyperlinkHover.ts` + Ink hover wiring: track the URL under the pointer
  in `Ink.hoveredHyperlink`, update it from `dispatchHover`, and inverse-
  highlight every cell of the matching link in the render-pass overlay
  (same pattern as `applySearchHighlight`). This is the cursor-hover
  affordance for clickable links — terminals don't expose cursor shape,
  so we light up the link itself.

- `types/hermes-ink.d.ts`: add `onHyperlinkClick` to the `RenderOptions`
  shim so consumers (`entry.tsx`) type-check against the new option.

Tests
-----
- `src/lib/openExternalUrl.test.ts` (15 cases): http(s) accepted; file/js/
  data/mailto/ftp/ssh rejected; macOS open(1), Windows cmd.exe start with
  empty title slot, Linux xdg-open dispatch; shell-metacharacter URLs
  pass through unmolested as a single argv element; synchronous spawn
  failure returns false.

Verified empirically in Apple Terminal 455.1 (macOS 15.7.3): clicking a
URL opens in default browser, hovering inverts the link cells, and
moving away clears the highlight. Full TUI suite: 713 passing, 0
type errors.

Reverts
-------
The earlier attempt that version-gated Apple_Terminal in
`supports-hyperlinks.ts` was based on a wrong assumption — Terminal.app
silently strips OSC 8 sequences but does not render them as clickable
hyperlinks. Reverted to the original allowlist.

* tui: address Copilot review — explorer.exe on win32 + comment fixes

- openExternalUrl: switch win32 from `cmd.exe /c start` to `explorer.exe`.
  cmd.exe's `start` builtin reparses the URL through cmd's tokenizer, so
  `&`, `|`, `^`, `<`, `>` either split the command or get reinterpreted —
  breaking both the protocol-allowlist safety story AND plain http(s) URLs
  with `&` in query strings. `explorer.exe <url>` invokes the registered
  protocol handler directly with no shell.

- openExternalUrl.test.ts: rename the win32 test to reflect the new
  contract and add two regression tests — one with `&|^<>` metachars,
  one with the common analytics-URL `&` query-param pattern — both pinned
  to single-argv-element delivery via explorer.exe.

- Link.tsx: fix misleading comment. OSC 8 escapes are emitted
  unconditionally by the renderer (`wrapWithOsc8Link` in
  render-node-to-output.ts, `oscLink` in log-update.ts). Non-supporting
  terminals silently strip the sequence, which is why hover/click
  affordance has to come from the in-process overlay rather than the
  terminal's own link rendering.

Verified: 715/715 tests pass, type-check + build clean.

* tui: address Copilot review #2 — async spawn errors + hover scope + docs

1. openExternalUrl: attach a no-op `'error'` listener on the spawned
   child BEFORE unref(). spawn() returns a ChildProcess synchronously
   even when the binary is missing (ENOENT on xdg-open / explorer.exe),
   unreachable, or otherwise unusable; the failure surfaces later as
   an 'error' event. An unhandled 'error' on an EventEmitter crashes
   Node, which would tear down the whole TUI. The listener is a
   deliberate no-op — we already returned `true` synchronously and the
   user just doesn't see the browser pop.

2. openExternalUrl.test.ts: add a regression test using a real
   EventEmitter to simulate the async-error path. Pins both the
   listener-attached contract and the "doesn't throw on emit" behavior.
   Was 17/17, now 18/18.

3. ink.tsx dispatchHover: bypass `getHyperlinkAt()` and read
   `cellAt(...).hyperlink` directly. `getHyperlinkAt` falls back to
   `findPlainTextUrlAt` for cells without an OSC 8 hyperlink, but the
   render-pass overlay (`applyHyperlinkHoverHighlight`) only matches on
   `cell.hyperlink === hoveredUrl` — so plain-text URLs would burn
   re-renders without ever producing the highlight. Hover is now a
   strictly 1:1 fit for what the overlay can paint. Plain-text URLs
   still get the click action via the existing dispatch path.

4. root.ts + ink.tsx doc comments: replace the misleading "typically
   `open` / `xdg-open` / `start` shell" wording with the actual safe
   recipe — argv-array spawn into `open` / `xdg-open` / `explorer.exe`,
   with an explicit warning that `cmd.exe /c start` reparses the URL
   through cmd's tokenizer and is unsafe + breaks `&`-query URLs.

Verified: 716/716 tests pass, type-check + build clean.

* tui: address Copilot review #3 — hover damage, alt-screen cleanup, opener allowlist

1. ink.tsx onRender: stop folding steady-state hover into hlActive.
   hlActive forces a full-screen damage diff so previous-frame inverted
   cells get re-emitted when the highlight set changes. The transition
   IS the trigger — enter / leave / change-to-other-link. While the
   pointer just sits on a link the painted cells don't change and the
   per-cell diff handles the no-op. Folding the steady state in would
   burn a full-screen diff on every frame. Added a
   lastRenderedHoveredHyperlink tracker and gate the hlActive bump on
   `hovered !== lastRendered`.

2. ink.tsx setAltScreenActive: clear hoveredHyperlink (and the tracker)
   when toggling alt-screen state. Hover dispatch is alt-screen-gated,
   so once we leave there's no path to clear it. Without this, remounting
   <AlternateScreen> would paint a phantom hover from the previous
   session until the next mouse-move arrived.

3. openExternalUrl.ts openCommand: allowlist linux + the BSD family for
   xdg-open and return null for everything else (aix, sunos, cygwin,
   haiku, etc.). Previously the default-fallback always returned
   xdg-open, which made the caller's `if (!command) return false` dead
   and yielded a misleading `true` on platforms that probably don't
   have xdg-open. New tests cover the null path AND the
   openExternalUrl-returns-false-without-spawning behavior.

Verified: 718/718 tests pass, type-check + build clean.

* tui: address Copilot review #4 — doc comment accuracy

1. openExternalUrl return-value doc: now lists all three false paths
   (URL rejected / no opener for platform / synchronous spawn throw)
   plus a note that async 'error' events still return true because the
   spawn was attempted.

2. ink.tsx onHyperlinkClick field doc: clarifies the callback receives
   either an OSC 8 hyperlink OR a plain-text URL detected by
   findPlainTextUrlAt — App.tsx routes both into the same callback.

3. hyperlinkHover applyHyperlinkHoverHighlight doc: drops the misleading
   'caller forces full-frame damage' promise. Caller decides; for hover
   the current caller only forces full damage on transitions.

No behavior change. 718/718 tests pass.

* tui: address Copilot review #5 — lint fixes

1. ink.tsx: reorder `./hyperlinkHover.js` import before `./screen.js` to
   satisfy perfectionist/sort-imports.

2. Link.tsx: drop unused `fallback` parameter destructuring + the
   trailing `void (null as ...)` dead-statement (would trip
   no-unused-expressions). Kept `fallback?: ReactNode` on the Props
   interface as a documented compat shim so existing call sites still
   compile, with a comment explaining why it's no longer wired up.

3. openExternalUrl.test.ts: replace `typeof import('node:child_process').spawn`
   inline annotations (forbidden by @typescript-eslint/consistent-type-imports)
   with a `SpawnLike` type alias backed by a real `import type { spawn as SpawnFn }`.

No behavior change. 718/718 tests pass, type-check clean, lint clean on
all modified files.

* fix(gateway): preserve queued follow-up transcript history

Keep the outer history_offset when _run_agent drains queued follow-ups recursively so transcript persistence includes every queued turn in the chain instead of only the last one.

* test(gateway): make queued follow-up regression generic

Replace tenant-specific example text in the transcript offset regression with generic follow-up turns so the upstream test documents the bug without customer-specific wording.

* feat(video_gen): unified video_generate tool with pluggable provider backends (#25126)

* feat(video_gen): unified video_generate tool with pluggable provider backends

One core video_generate tool, every backend a plugin. Mirrors the
image_gen + memory_provider + context_engine architecture: ABC, registry,
plugin-context registration hook, and per-plugin model catalogs surfaced
through hermes tools.

Surface (one schema, every backend):
- operation: generate / edit / extend
- modalities: text-to-video (prompt only), image-to-video (prompt +
  image_url), video edit (prompt + video_url), video extend (video_url)
- reference_image_urls, duration, aspect_ratio, resolution,
  negative_prompt, audio, seed, model override
- Providers ignore unknown kwargs and declare what they support via
  VideoGenProvider.capabilities() — backend-specific quirks stay in the
  backend, the agent learns one tool

Backends shipped:
- plugins/video_gen/xai/  — Grok-Imagine, full generate/edit/extend +
  image-to-video + reference images (salvaged from PR #10600 by
  @Jaaneek, reshaped into the plugin interface)
- plugins/video_gen/fal/  — Veo 3.1 (t2v + i2v), Kling O3 i2v,
  Pixverse v6 i2v with model-aware payload building that drops keys a
  model doesn't declare

Wiring:
- agent/video_gen_provider.py — VideoGenProvider ABC, normalize_operation,
  success_response / error_response, save_b64_video / save_bytes_video,
  $HERMES_HOME/cache/videos/
- agent/video_gen_registry.py — thread-safe register/get/list +
  get_active_provider() reading video_gen.provider from config.yaml
- hermes_cli/plugins.py — PluginContext.register_video_gen_provider()
- hermes_cli/tools_config.py — Video Generation category in
  hermes tools, plugin-only providers list, model picker per plugin,
  config write to video_gen.{provider,model}
- toolsets.py — new video_gen toolset
- tests: 31 new tests covering ABC, registry, tool dispatch, both plugins
- docs: developer-guide/video-gen-provider-plugin.md (parallel to the
  image-gen guide), sidebar + toolsets-reference + plugin guides updated

Supersedes: #25035 (FAL), #17972 (FAL), #14543 (xAI), #13847 (HappyHorse),
#10458 (provider categories), #10786 (xAI media+search bundle), #2984
(FAL duplicate), #19086 (Google Veo standalone — easy port to plugin
interface).

* feat(video_gen): dynamic schema reflects active backend's capabilities

Address the 'capability variance' question — instead of one tool with a
static schema that lies about what every backend supports, the
video_generate tool now rebuilds its description at get_definitions()
time based on the configured video_gen.provider and video_gen.model.

The agent sees backend-specific guidance up-front:
- 'fal-ai/veo3.1/image-to-video': 'image-to-video only — image_url is
  REQUIRED; text-only prompts will be rejected'
- 'fal-ai/veo3.1' (t2v): no image_url restriction shown
- xAI grok-imagine-video: 'operations: generate, edit, extend; up to 7
  reference_image_urls'
- Backends without edit/extend: 'not supported on this backend — surface
  that they need to switch backends via hermes tools'

This is the same pattern PR #22694 used for delegate_task self-capping —
documented in the dynamic-tool-schemas skill. Cache invalidation is
free: get_tool_definitions() already memoizes on config.yaml mtime, so a
mid-session backend swap rebuilds the schema automatically.

Tested:
- Empirical FAL OpenAPI schema check confirms image-to-video models
  require image_url (FAL returns HTTP 422 otherwise) — client-side
  rejection in FALVideoGenProvider.generate() now prevents the wasted
  round-trip
- Live E2E: fal-ai/veo3.1/image-to-video + prompt-only → clean
  missing_image_url error; fal-ai/veo3.1 + prompt-only → dispatches
- 6 new tests cover the builder (no config / image-only / full-surface /
  text-only / unknown provider / registry wiring), all passing
- 37/37 in the slice, 134/134 in the broader regression set

* test(video_gen/xai): full surface integration tests + cleaner schema

Verified end-to-end that the xAI plugin handles every documented mode
from PR #10600's surface: text-to-video, image-to-video,
reference-images-to-video, video edit, video extend (with and without
prompt). All five modes route to the correct xAI endpoint
(/videos/generations, /videos/edits, /videos/extensions) with the right
payload shape (image / reference_images / video keys), and all five
client-side rejections fire before the network: edit-without-prompt,
extend-without-video_url, image+refs conflict, >7 references, and
duration/aspect_ratio clamping.

15 new integration tests grouped into four classes (endpoint routing,
modalities, validation, clamping). httpx is stubbed via a small fake
AsyncClient that records POSTs so the tests assert the actual payload
the plugin would send to xAI — not just the success/error envelope.

Also cleaned up a description redundancy: when a model's operations
match the backend's overall set, we no longer print the duplicate
'operations supported by this model' line. xAI's description now reads:

    Active backend: xAI . model: grok-imagine-video
    - operations supported by this backend: edit, extend, generate
    - modalities supported by this backend: image, reference_images, text
    - aspect_ratio choices: 16:9, 1:1, 2:3, 3:2, 3:4, 4:3, 9:16
    - resolution choices: 480p, 720p
    - duration range: 1-15s
    - reference_image_urls: up to 7 images

* feat(video_gen): collapse surface to t2v + i2v, family-based auto-routing

Two design changes per Teknium:

1) Drop edit/extend from the tool surface entirely. Only text-to-video
and image-to-video remain. The agent sees a clean tool with two
modalities; backend-specific quirks like xAI's edit/extend endpoints
stay out of the unified schema.

2) FAL: pick a model FAMILY once, the plugin routes between the
family's text-to-video and image-to-video endpoints based on whether
image_url was passed. Users no longer pick 'fal-ai/veo3.1' AND
'fal-ai/veo3.1/image-to-video' as separate options — they pick
'veo3.1', and the plugin handles the rest.

Catalog rewritten as families:

    veo3.1            fal-ai/veo3.1                                /  fal-ai/veo3.1/image-to-video
    pixverse-v6       fal-ai/pixverse/v6/text-to-video             /  fal-ai/pixverse/v6/image-to-video
    kling-o3-standard fal-ai/kling-video/o3/standard/text-to-video /  fal-ai/kling-video/o3/standard/image-to-video

xAI uses a single endpoint (/videos/generations) for both modes,
routed by the presence of the 'image' field in the payload — no
edit/extend exposure.

Schema changes:
- VIDEO_GENERATE_SCHEMA: drop operation, drop video_url. Final params:
  prompt (required), image_url, reference_image_urls, duration,
  aspect_ratio, resolution, negative_prompt, audio, seed, model.
- VideoGenProvider ABC: drop normalize_operation, VALID_OPERATIONS,
  DEFAULT_OPERATION. capabilities() drops 'operations' key.
- success_response: add 'modality' field ('text' | 'image') so the
  agent and logs can see which endpoint was actually hit.

Dynamic schema builder simplified — no operations bullet, no
'switch backends if you need edit/extend' guidance. When the active
backend supports both modalities (the common case), description reads:

    Active backend: FAL . model: pixverse-v6
    - supports both text-to-video (omit image_url) and image-to-video
      (pass image_url) - routes automatically
    - aspect_ratio choices: 16:9, 9:16, 1:1
    - resolution choices: 360p, 540p, 720p, 1080p
    - duration range: 1-15s
    - audio: pass audio=true to enable native audio (pricing tier)
    - negative_prompt: supported

Tests: 51 in the video_gen slice, 216 across the broader image+video
sweep, all passing. New FAL routing tests prove pixverse-v6 + no image
hits text-to-video endpoint, pixverse-v6 + image_url hits
image-to-video endpoint, same for veo3.1 and kling-o3-standard.

Docs updated: developer-guide page rewrites the 'model families' pattern
as a first-class section so external plugin authors know the convention.
toolsets-reference and toolsets.py descriptions match the new surface.

* feat(video_gen/fal): expand catalog to 6 families, cheap + premium tiers

Catalog now covers everything Teknium specced from FAL:

  Cheap tier:
    ltx-2.3        fal-ai/ltx-2.3-22b/text-to-video       / image-to-video
    pixverse-v6    fal-ai/pixverse/v6/text-to-video       / image-to-video

  Premium tier:
    veo3.1         fal-ai/veo3.1                          / fal-ai/veo3.1/image-to-video
    seedance-2.0   bytedance/seedance-2.0/text-to-video   / image-to-video
    kling-v3-4k    fal-ai/kling-video/v3/4k/text-to-video / image-to-video
    happy-horse    fal-ai/happy-horse/text-to-video       / image-to-video

DEFAULT_MODEL moved from veo3.1 (premium) to pixverse-v6 (cheap, sane
defaults, both modalities) — better first-run UX for users who haven't
explicitly picked a model.

New family-entry knob: image_param_key. Kling v3 4K's image-to-video
endpoint expects start_image_url instead of image_url; declaring
image_param_key='start_image_url' on the family lets _build_payload
remap correctly. Other families default to plain image_url.

Per-family capability flags reflect each model's docs:
- LTX 2.3 + Happy Horse: minimal payloads (no duration/aspect/resolution
  enum exposed by FAL — let endpoint apply defaults)
- Seedance: 6 aspect ratios incl 21:9, durations 4-15, audio supported,
  negative prompts NOT supported per docs
- Kling v3 4K: 16:9/9:16/1:1, 3-15s, audio + negative
- Veo 3.1: unchanged, 16:9/9:16, 4/6/8s

Tests: +5 covering the new families (full catalog, Kling 4K
start_image_url remap, Seedance routing, LTX payload minimality, Happy
Horse minimality). 56/56 in the slice green.

Note: I did NOT add the FAL-hosted xAI Grok-Imagine variant. Hermes
already has a direct xAI plugin that talks to xAI's own API; routing
the same model through FAL's wrapper would duplicate the surface
without adding capabilities. Users on FAL who want Grok-Imagine should
use the xAI plugin directly; flag if you want both routes available.

* test(video_gen): tool-surface routing matrix — every model x modality

End-to-end matrix test driven through _handle_video_generate() — the
actual function the agent's video_generate tool call lands in. Writes
config.yaml, invokes the registered handler with a raw args dict, then
asserts the outbound HTTP/SDK call hit the right endpoint with the right
payload shape.

Parametrized over FAL_FAMILIES.keys() so the matrix auto-discovers new
families as they're added (add a family to FAL_FAMILIES and you get
both modalities tested for free).

Coverage:
- All 6 FAL families x {text-only, text+image} = 12 cases
- xAI x {text-only, text+image} = 2 cases
- tool-level model= arg overrides config = 2 cases

For each case, verifies:
- result['success'] is True
- result['modality'] matches input shape ('text' if no image_url, 'image' otherwise)
- outbound endpoint URL matches the family's text_endpoint or image_endpoint
- text-only payloads carry no image-shaped keys
- text+image payloads carry the family's image key (image_url for most,
  start_image_url for kling-v3-4k, wrapped 'image' object for xAI)

All 16 cases passing. Confirms the tool surface routes every
(provider, model, modality) combination correctly with zero leakage.

* feat(video_gen): keep video_gen out of first-run setup, surface in status

Two changes:

1. video_gen joins _DEFAULT_OFF_TOOLSETS, so it is NOT pre-selected in
   the first-run toolset checklist. Video gen is niche, paid, and slow —
   most users don't want it nagging them during initial setup. Anyone
   who wants it opts in via 'hermes tools' -> Video Generation, which
   already routes to the provider+model picker.

2. The 'hermes setup' status panel learns about video_gen — but only
   shows the row when a plugin reports available. Users without
   FAL_KEY/XAI_API_KEY see nothing about video gen; users with one of
   those keys see 'Video Generation (FAL) ✓' as confirmation it's wired.

Verified live:
- Fresh install (no creds): zero video_gen mentions in wizard.
- With FAL_KEY: status row appears with active backend name.
- 160/160 in the setup + tools_config + video_gen test slice.

Rationale: image_gen is on by default because it's a featured creative
tool used in casual chat (telegrams, etc). Video gen is heavier — long
wait, paid per-second pricing. Default-off matches user intent better.

* feat(codex-runtime): optional codex app-server runtime for OpenAI/Codex models (#24182)

* feat(codex-runtime): scaffold optional codex app-server runtime

Foundational commit for an opt-in alternate runtime that hands OpenAI/Codex
turns to a 'codex app-server' subprocess instead of Hermes' tool dispatch.
Default behavior is unchanged.

Lands in three pieces:

1. agent/transports/codex_app_server.py — JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdio speaker
   for codex's app-server protocol (codex-rs/app-server). Spawn, init
   handshake, request/response, notification queue, server-initiated
   request queue (for approval round-trips), interrupt-friendly blocking
   reads. Tested against real codex 0.130.0 binary end-to-end during
   development.

2. hermes_cli/runtime_provider.py:
   - Adds 'codex_app_server' to _VALID_API_MODES.
   - Adds _maybe_apply_codex_app_server_runtime() helper, called at the
     end of _resolve_runtime_from_pool_entry(). Inert unless
     'model.openai_runtime: codex_app_server' is set in config.yaml AND
     provider in {openai, openai-codex}. Other providers cannot be
     rerouted (anthropic, openrouter, etc. preserved).

3. tests/agent/transports/test_codex_app_server_runtime.py — 24 tests
   covering api_mode registration, the rewriter helper (default-off,
   case-insensitive, opt-in, non-eligible providers preserved), version
   parser, missing-binary handling, error class. Does NOT require codex
   CLI installed.

This commit is wire-only: the api_mode is recognized but AIAgent does
not yet branch on it. Followup commits add the session adapter, event
projector, approval bridge, transcript projection (so memory/skill
review still works), plugin migration, and slash command.

Existing tests remain green:
- tests/cli/test_cli_provider_resolution.py (29 passed)
- tests/agent/test_credential_pool_routing.py (included above)

* feat(codex-runtime): add codex item projector for memory/skill review

The translator that lets Hermes' self-improvement loop keep working under the
Codex runtime: converts codex 'item/*' notifications into Hermes' standard
{role, content, tool_calls, tool_call_id} message shape that
agent/curator.py already knows how to read.

Item taxonomy (matches codex-rs/app-server-protocol/src/protocol/v2/item.rs):
  - userMessage          → {role: user, content}
  - agentMessage         → {role: assistant, content: text}
  - reasoning            → stashed in next assistant's 'reasoning' field
  - commandExecution     → assistant tool_call(name='exec_command') + tool result
  - fileChange           → assistant tool_call(name='apply_patch') + tool result
  - mcpToolCall          → assistant tool_call(name='mcp.<server>.<tool>') + tool result
  - dynamicToolCall      → assistant tool_call(name=<tool>) + tool result
  - plan/hookPrompt/etc  → opaque assistant note, no fabricated tool_calls

Invariants preserved:
  - Message role alternation never violated: each tool item produces at most
    one assistant + one tool message in that order, correlated by call_id.
  - Streaming deltas (item/<type>/outputDelta, item/agentMessage/delta)
    don't materialize messages — only item/completed does. Mirrors how
    Hermes already only writes the assistant message after streaming ends.
  - Tool call ids are deterministic (codex item id-based) so replays produce
    identical messages and prefix caches stay valid (AGENTS.md pitfall #16).
  - JSON args use sorted_keys for the same reason.

Real wire formats verified against codex 0.130.0 by capturing live
notifications from thread/shellCommand and including one as a fixture
(COMMAND_EXEC_COMPLETED).

23 new tests, all green:
  - Streaming deltas don't materialize (3 paths)
  - Turn/thread frame events are silent
  - commandExecution: 5 tests including non-zero exit annotation +
    deterministic id stability across replays
  - agentMessage + reasoning attachment + reasoning consumption
  - fileChange: summary without inlined content
  - mcpToolCall: namespaced naming + error surfacing
  - userMessage: text fragments only (drops images/etc)
  - opaque items: no fabricated tool_calls
  - Helpers: deterministic id stability + sorted JSON args
  - Role alternation invariant across all four tool-shaped item types

This commit is a pure addition. AIAgent integration (the wire that uses the
projector) is the next commit.

* feat(codex-runtime): add session adapter + approval bridge

The third self-contained module: CodexAppServerSession owns one Codex
thread per Hermes session, drives turn/start, consumes streaming
notifications via CodexEventProjector, handles server-initiated approval
requests, and translates cancellation into turn/interrupt.

The adapter has a single public per-turn method:

    result = session.run_turn(user_input='...', turn_timeout=600)
    # result.final_text          → assistant text for the caller
    # result.projected_messages  → list ready to splice into AIAgent.messages
    # result.tool_iterations     → tick count for _iters_since_skill nudge
    # result.interrupted         → True on Ctrl+C / deadline / interrupt
    # result.error               → error string when the turn cannot complete
    # result.turn_id, thread_id  → for sessions DB / resume

Behavior:

  - ensure_started() spawns codex, does the initialize handshake, and
    issues thread/start with cwd + permissions profile. Idempotent.
  - run_turn() blocks until turn/completed, drains server-initiated
    requests (approvals) before reading notifications so codex never
    deadlocks waiting for us, projects every item/completed via the
    projector, and increments tool_iterations for the skill nudge gate.
  - request_interrupt() is thread-safe (threading.Event); the next loop
    iteration issues turn/interrupt and unwinds.
  - turn_timeout deadlock guard issues turn/interrupt and records an
    error if the turn never completes.
  - close() escalates terminate → kill via the underlying client.

Approval bridge:

  Codex emits server-initiated requests for execCommandApproval and
  applyPatchApproval. The adapter translates Hermes' approval choice
  vocabulary onto codex's decision vocabulary:

    Hermes 'once'                → codex 'approved'
    Hermes 'session' or 'always' → codex 'approvedForSession'
    Hermes 'deny' / anything else → codex 'denied'

  Routing precedence:
    1. _ServerRequestRouting.auto_approve_* flags (cron / non-interactive)
    2. approval_callback wired by the CLI (defers to
       tools.approval.prompt_dangerous_approval())
    3. Fail-closed denial when neither is wired

  Unknown server-request methods are answered with JSON-RPC error -32601
  so codex doesn't hang waiting for us.

Permission profile mapping mirrors AGENTS.md:
    Hermes 'auto'              → codex 'workspace-write'
    Hermes 'approval-required' → codex 'read-only-with-approval'
    Hermes 'unrestricted/yolo' → codex 'full-access'

20 new tests, all green. Combined with prior commits this PR now has
67 tests across three modules:
  - test_codex_app_server_runtime.py: 24 (api_mode + transport surface)
  - test_codex_event_projector.py: 23 (item taxonomy projections)
  - test_codex_app_server_session.py: 20 (turn loop + approvals + interrupts)

Full tests/agent/transports/ directory: 249/249 pass — no regressions
to existing transport tests.

Still no wire into AIAgent.run_conversation(); that integration commit
is small and goes next.

* feat(codex-runtime): wire codex_app_server runtime into AIAgent

The integration commit. AIAgent.run_conversation() now early-returns to a
new helper _run_codex_app_server_turn() when self.api_mode ==
'codex_app_server', bypassing the chat_completions tool loop entirely.

Three small surgical edits to run_agent.py (~105 LOC total):

1. Line ~1204 (constructor api_mode validation set):
   Add 'codex_app_server' so an explicit api_mode='codex_app_server'
   passed to AIAgent() isn't silently rewritten to 'chat_completions'.

2. Line ~12048 (run_conversation, just before the while loop):
   Early-return to _run_codex_app_server_turn() when self.api_mode is
   'codex_app_server'. Placed AFTER all standard pre-loop setup —
   logging context, session DB, surrogate sanitization, _user_turn_count
   and _turns_since_memory increments, _ext_prefetch_cache, memory
   manager on_turn_start — so behavior outside the model-call loop is
   identical between paths. Default Hermes flow is unchanged when the
   flag is off.

3. End-of-class (line ~15497):
   New method _run_codex_app_server_turn(). Lazy-instantiates one
   CodexAppServerSession per AIAgent (reused across turns), runs the
   turn, splices projected_messages into messages, increments
   _iters_since_skill by tool_iterations (since the chat_completions
   loop normally does that per iteration), fires
   _spawn_background_review on the same cadence as the default path.

Counter accounting:

  _iters_since_skill   ← incremented in the chat_completions loop per
                         tool iteration. Codex helper increments by
                         turn.tool_iterations since the loop is bypassed.
