fix(install.ps1): handle uv stderr output with ErrorActionPreference=Stop

On fresh Windows installs, `uv python install` writes download progress to
stderr. With $ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop' (set globally in the script),
PowerShell wraps those stderr lines as ErrorRecord objects when captured via
2>&1, then throws a terminating exception — landing in the catch block even
though uv exits 0 and Python was installed successfully.

Fix: temporarily set ErrorActionPreference to 'Continue' around the native
uv call, then verify success with `uv python find` which is the reliable
signal regardless of exit code / stderr noise.

Tested on Windows 11 (build 26200) with ExecutionPolicy=Restricted,
uv 0.11.11, fresh machine with no prior Python install.

-# Verify uv.lock is in sync with pyproject.toml.  Blocking check — PRs
-# that modify pyproject.toml without regenerating uv.lock (or vice versa)

-# ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-# IMPORTANT: this check runs against the MERGED state, not just your branch
-# ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-#
-# For `pull_request` events, GitHub checks out `refs/pull/<N>/merge` by
-# default — a synthetic commit that merges your PR branch into the CURRENT
-# state of `main`.  That means the pyproject.toml evaluated here is
-# `main's pyproject.toml + your PR's changes to pyproject.toml`, not just
-# what's on your branch.
-#
-# Failure mode this creates: if `main` has advanced since you branched
-# (e.g. someone merged a PR that added a dep to pyproject.toml + its
-# corresponding uv.lock entries), your branch's uv.lock is missing those
-# new entries.  `uv lock --check` resolves against the merged pyproject
-# and sees a lockfile that doesn't cover all the current deps → fails
-# with "The lockfile at uv.lock needs to be updated."
-#
-# This can be confusing: `uv lock --check` passes locally (your branch
-# is internally consistent) but fails in CI (merged state isn't).
-#
-# Fix is to sync your branch with main and regenerate the lockfile:
-#
-#     git fetch origin main
-#     git rebase origin/main      # or merge, whatever the repo prefers

-#
-# If you also changed pyproject.toml in your PR, `uv lock` handles that
-# at the same time — one regeneration covers both your changes and the
-# drift from main.
-#
-# This is the correct behavior!  The check is protecting main's Docker

-- Prefer small nanostores over component state when state is shared, reused, or read by distant UI.
-- Let each feature own its atoms. Chat state belongs near chat, shell state near shell, shared state in `src/store`.
-- Components that render from an atom should use `useStore`. Non-rendering actions should read with `$atom.get()`.
-- Do not pass state through three components when the leaf can subscribe to the atom.
-- Keep persistence beside the atom that owns it.
-- Keep route roots thin. They compose routes and shell; they should not become controllers.
-- No monolithic hooks. A hook should own one narrow job.
-- Prefer colocated action modules over hidden god hooks.
-- If a callback is pure side effect, use the terse void form:
-  `onState={st => void setGatewayState(st)}`.
-- Async UI handlers should make intent explicit:
-  `onClick={() => void save()}`.
-- Prefer interfaces for public props and shared object shapes. Avoid `type X = { ... }` for object props.
-- Extend React primitives for props: `React.ComponentProps<'button'>`, `React.ComponentProps<typeof Dialog>`, `Omit<...>`, `Pick<...>`.

 ## Cross-Platform Compatibility

+Hermes runs on Linux, macOS, and WSL2 on Windows. When writing code that touches the OS:
 
 ### Critical rules
 
-1. **Never call `os.kill(pid, 0)` for liveness checks.** `os.kill(pid, 0)`
-   is a standard POSIX idiom to check "is this PID alive" — the signal 0
-   is a no-op permission check. **On Windows it is NOT a no-op.** Python's
-   Windows `os.kill` maps `sig=0` to `CTRL_C_EVENT` (they collide at the
-   integer value 0) and routes it through `GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent(0, pid)`,
-   which broadcasts Ctrl+C to the **entire console process group** containing
-   the target PID. "Probe if alive" silently becomes "kill the target and
-   often unrelated processes sharing its console." See [bpo-14484](https://bugs.python.org/issue14484)
-   (open since 2012 — will never be fixed for compat reasons).
-
-   **Preferred:** use `psutil` (a core dependency — always available):
-
-   ```python
-   import psutil
-   if psutil.pid_exists(pid):
-       # process is alive — safe on every platform
-       ...
-   ```
-
-   If you specifically need the hermes wrapper (it has a stdlib fallback
-   for scaffold-phase imports before pip install finishes), use
-   `gateway.status._pid_exists(pid)`. It calls `psutil.pid_exists` first
-   and falls back to a hand-rolled `OpenProcess + WaitForSingleObject`
-   dance on Windows only when psutil is somehow missing.
-
-   Audit grep for new callsites: `rg "os\.kill\([^,]+,\s*0\s*\)"`. Any hit
-   in non-test code is presumptively a Windows silent-kill bug.
-
-2. **Use `shutil.which()` before shelling out — don't assume Windows has
-   tools Linux has.** `wmic` was removed in Windows 10 21H1 and later. `ps`,
-   `kill`, `grep`, `awk`, `fuser`, `lsof`, `pgrep`, and most POSIX CLI tools
-   simply don't exist on Windows. Test availability with
-   `shutil.which("tool")` and fall back to a Windows-native equivalent —
-   usually PowerShell via `subprocess.run(["powershell", "-NoProfile",
-   "-Command", ...])`.
-
-   For process enumeration: PowerShell's `Get-CimInstance Win32_Process` is
-   the modern replacement for `wmic process`. See
-   `hermes_cli/gateway.py::_scan_gateway_pids` for the pattern.
-
-3. **`termios` and `fcntl` are Unix-only.** Always catch both `ImportError`
-   and `NotImplementedError`:

-   handle encoding errors:
+2. **File encoding.** Windows may save `.env` files in `cp1252`. Always handle encoding errors:
    ```python
    try:
        load_dotenv(env_path)
    except UnicodeDecodeError:
        load_dotenv(env_path, encoding="latin-1")
    ```
-   Config files (`config.yaml`) may be saved with a UTF-8 BOM by Notepad and
-   similar editors — use `encoding="utf-8-sig"` when reading files that
-   could have been touched by a Windows GUI editor.
 
-5. **Process management.** `os.setsid()`, `os.killpg()`, `os.fork()`,
-   `os.getuid()`, and POSIX signal handling differ on Windows. Guard with
-   `platform.system()`, `sys.platform`, or `hasattr(os, "setsid")`:
+3. **Process management.** `os.setsid()`, `os.killpg()`, and signal handling differ on Windows. Use platform checks:
    ```python
+   import platform
    if platform.system() != "Windows":
        kwargs["preexec_fn"] = os.setsid
-   else:
-       kwargs["creationflags"] = subprocess.CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP
    ```
 
-   **Preferred:** for killing a process AND its children (what `os.killpg`
-   does on POSIX), use `psutil` — it works on every platform:
-   ```python
-   import psutil
-   try:
-       parent = psutil.Process(pid)
-       # Kill children first (leaf-up), then the parent.
-       for child in parent.children(recursive=True):
-           child.kill()
-       parent.kill()
-   except psutil.NoSuchProcess:
-       pass
-   ```
+4. **Path separators.** Use `pathlib.Path` instead of string concatenation with `/`.
 
-6. **Signals that don't exist on Windows: `SIGALRM`, `SIGCHLD`, `SIGHUP`,
-   `SIGUSR1`, `SIGUSR2`, `SIGPIPE`, `SIGQUIT`, `SIGKILL`.** Python's
-   `signal` module raises `AttributeError` at import time if you reference
-   them on Windows. Use `getattr(signal, "SIGKILL", signal.SIGTERM)` or
-   gate the whole block behind a platform check. `loop.add_signal_handler`
-   raises `NotImplementedError` on Windows — always catch it.
-
-7. **Path separators.** Use `pathlib.Path` instead of string concatenation
-   with `/`. Forward slashes work almost everywhere on Windows, but
-   `subprocess.run(["cmd.exe", "/c", ...])` and other shell contexts can
-   require backslashes — convert with `str(path)` at the subprocess boundary,
-   not inside Python logic.
-
-8. **Symlinks need elevated privileges on Windows** (unless Developer Mode is
-   on). Tests that create symlinks need `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform ==
-   "win32", reason="Symlinks require elevated privileges on Windows")`.
-
-9. **POSIX file modes (0o600, 0o644, etc.) are NOT enforced on NTFS** by
-   default. Tests that assert on `stat().st_mode & 0o777` must skip on
-   Windows — the concept doesn't translate. Use ACLs (`icacls`, `pywin32`)
-   for Windows secret-file protection if needed.
-
-10. **Detached background daemons on Windows need `pythonw.exe`, NOT
-    `python.exe`.** `python.exe` always allocates or attaches to a console,
-    which makes it vulnerable to `CTRL_C_EVENT` broadcasts from any sibling
-    process. `pythonw.exe` is the no-console variant. Combine with
-    `CREATE_NO_WINDOW | DETACHED_PROCESS | CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP |
-    CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB` in `subprocess.Popen(creationflags=...)`.
-    See `hermes_cli/gateway_windows.py::_spawn_detached` for the reference
-    implementation.
-
-11. **`subprocess.Popen` with `.cmd` or `.bat` shims needs `shutil.which`
-    to resolve.** Passing `"agent-browser"` to `Popen` on Windows finds
-    the extensionless POSIX shebang shim in `node_modules/.bin/`, which
-    `CreateProcessW` can't execute — you'll get `WinError 193 "not a valid
-    Win32 application"`. Use `shutil.which("agent-browser", path=local_bin)`
-    which honors PATHEXT and picks the `.CMD` variant on Windows.
-
-12. **Don't use shell shebangs as a way to run Python.** `#!/usr/bin/env
-    python` only works when the file is executed through a Unix shell.
-    `subprocess.run(["./myscript.py"])` on Windows fails even if the file
-    has a shebang line. Always invoke Python explicitly:
-    `[sys.executable, "myscript.py"]`.
-
-13. **Shell commands in installers.** If you change `scripts/install.sh`,
-    make the equivalent change in `scripts/install.ps1`. The two scripts
-    are the canonical example of "works on Linux does not mean works on
-    Windows" and have drifted multiple times — keep them in lockstep.
-
-14. **Known paths that are OneDrive-redirected on Windows:** Desktop,
-    Documents, Pictures, Videos. The "real" path when OneDrive Backup is
-    enabled is `%USERPROFILE%\OneDrive\Desktop` (etc.), NOT
-    `%USERPROFILE%\Desktop` (which exists as an empty husk). Resolve the
-    real location via `ctypes` + `SHGetKnownFolderPath` or by reading the
-    `Shell Folders` registry key — never assume `~/Desktop`.
-
-15. **CRLF vs LF in generated scripts.** Windows `cmd.exe` and `schtasks`
-    parse line-by-line; mixed or LF-only line endings can break multi-line
-    `.cmd` / `.bat` files. Use `open(path, "w", encoding="utf-8",
-    newline="\r\n")` — or `open(path, "wb")` + explicit bytes — when
-    generating scripts Windows will execute.
-
-16. **Two different quoting schemes in one command line.** `subprocess.run
-    (["schtasks", "/TR", some_cmd])` → schtasks itself parses `/TR`, AND
-    the `some_cmd` string is re-parsed by `cmd.exe` when the task fires.
-    Different parsers, different escape rules. Use two separate quoting
-    helpers and never cross them. See `hermes_cli/gateway_windows.py::
-    _quote_cmd_script_arg` and `_quote_schtasks_arg` for the reference
-    pair.
-
-### Testing cross-platform
-
-Tests that use POSIX-only syscalls need a skip marker. Common ones:
-- Symlinks → `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform == "win32", ...)`
-- `0o600` file modes → `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform.startswith("win"), ...)`
-- `signal.SIGALRM` → Unix-only (see `tests/conftest.py::_enforce_test_timeout`)
-- `os.setsid` / `os.fork` → Unix-only
-- Live Winsock / Windows-specific regression tests →
-  `@pytest.mark.skipif(sys.platform != "win32", reason="Windows-specific regression")`
-
-If you monkeypatch `sys.platform` for cross-platform tests, also patch
-`platform.system()` / `platform.release()` / `platform.mac_ver()` — each
-re-reads the real OS independently, so half-patched tests still route
-through the wrong branch on a Windows runner.
+5. **Shell commands in installers.** If you change `scripts/install.sh`, check if the equivalent change is needed in `scripts/install.ps1`.

-# Hermes Desktop
-
-Native Electron shell for Hermes. It packages the desktop renderer, a bundled Hermes source payload, and installer targets for macOS and Windows.
-
-## Setup
-
-Install workspace dependencies from the repo root so `apps/desktop`, `apps/dashboard`, and `apps/shared` stay linked:
-
-```bash
-npm install
-```
-
-For Python, you have two options:
-
-**Option A — let the desktop provision it for you (recommended for first-time setup):** just run `npm run dev`. On first launch the desktop creates a venv at `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent/venv` and runs `pip install -e .` against the resolved Hermes source automatically. Requires Python 3.11+ on `PATH`.
-
-**Option B — share an existing CLI install:** if you already ran `scripts/install.ps1` / `scripts/install.sh`, that's the same layout the desktop uses. The desktop reuses your existing venv and editable install — no extra steps. See [Runtime Bootstrap](#runtime-bootstrap) below for details.
-
-If you're hacking on Hermes from a clone outside `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent`, point the desktop at it explicitly:
-
-```bash
-HERMES_DESKTOP_HERMES_ROOT=/path/to/your/clone npm run dev
-```
-
-## Development
-
-```bash
-cd apps/desktop
-npm run dev
-```
-
-`npm run dev` starts Vite on `127.0.0.1:5174`, launches Electron, and lets Electron boot the Hermes dashboard backend on an open port in `9120-9199`. This path is for UI iteration and may still show Electron/dev identities in OS prompts.
-
-Useful overrides:
-
-```bash
-HERMES_DESKTOP_HERMES_ROOT=/path/to/hermes-agent npm run dev
-HERMES_DESKTOP_PYTHON=/path/to/python npm run dev
-HERMES_DESKTOP_CWD=/path/to/project npm run dev
-HERMES_DESKTOP_IGNORE_EXISTING=1 npm run dev
-HERMES_HOME=/tmp/throwaway-hermes-home npm run dev
-HERMES_DESKTOP_BOOT_FAKE=1 npm run dev
-HERMES_DESKTOP_BOOT_FAKE=1 HERMES_DESKTOP_BOOT_FAKE_STEP_MS=900 npm run dev
-```
-
-`HERMES_DESKTOP_IGNORE_EXISTING=1` skips any `hermes` CLI already on `PATH`, which is useful when testing the factory-image bootstrap path.
-
-`HERMES_HOME` overrides the install root (default: `%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes` on Windows, `~/.hermes` elsewhere) — handy for sandboxed dev runs that shouldn't touch your real config.
-
-`HERMES_DESKTOP_BOOT_FAKE=1` adds deterministic per-phase delays to desktop startup so you can validate the startup overlay and progress bar. For convenience, `npm run dev:fake-boot` enables fake mode with defaults.
-
-On a fresh Hermes profile, Desktop shows a first-run setup overlay after boot. The overlay saves the minimum required provider credential (for example `OPENROUTER_API_KEY`, `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, or `OPENAI_API_KEY`) to the active Hermes `.env`, reloads the backend env, and then lets the user continue without opening Settings manually.
-
-## Dashboard Dev
-
-Run the Python dashboard backend with embedded chat enabled:
-
-```bash
-hermes dashboard --tui --no-open
-```
-
-For dashboard HMR, start Vite in another terminal:
-
-```bash
-cd apps/dashboard
-npm run dev
-```
-
-Open the Vite URL. The dev server proxies `/api`, `/api/pty`, and plugin assets to `http://127.0.0.1:9119` and fetches the live dashboard HTML so the ephemeral session token matches the running backend.
-
-## Build
-
-```bash
-npm run build
-npm run pack          # unpacked app at release/mac-<arch>/Hermes.app
-npm run dist:mac      # macOS DMG + zip
-npm run dist:mac:dmg  # DMG only
-npm run dist:mac:zip  # zip only
-npm run dist:win      # NSIS + MSI
-```
-
-Before packaging, `stage:hermes` copies the Python Hermes payload into `build/hermes-agent`. Electron Builder then ships it as `Contents/Resources/hermes-agent`.
-
-## Automated Releases
-
-Desktop installers are published by [`.github/workflows/desktop-release.yml`](../../.github/workflows/desktop-release.yml) with two channels:
-
-- **Stable:** runs on published GitHub releases and uploads signed artifacts to that release tag.
-- **Nightly:** runs on `main` pushes and updates the rolling `desktop-nightly` prerelease.
-
-The workflow injects a channel-aware desktop version at build time:
-
-- stable: derived from the release tag (for example `v2026.5.5` -> `2026.5.5`)
-- nightly: `0.0.0-nightly.YYYYMMDD.<sha>`
-
-Artifact names include channel, platform, and architecture:
-
-```text
-Hermes-<version>-<channel>-<platform>-<arch>.<ext>
-```
-
-Each run also publishes `SHA256SUMS-<platform>.txt` so installers can be verified.
-
-### Stable release gates
-
-Stable builds fail fast if signing credentials are missing:
-
-- macOS signing + notarization: `CSC_LINK`, `CSC_KEY_PASSWORD`, `APPLE_API_KEY`, `APPLE_API_KEY_ID`, `APPLE_API_ISSUER`
-- Windows signing: `WIN_CSC_LINK`, `WIN_CSC_KEY_PASSWORD`
-
-Stable macOS builds also validate stapling and Gatekeeper assessment in CI before upload.
-
-## Icons
-
-Desktop icons live in `assets/`:
-
-- `assets/icon.icns`
-- `assets/icon.ico`
-- `assets/icon.png`
-
-The builder config points at `assets/icon`. Replace these files directly if the app icon changes.
-
-## Testing Install Paths
-
-Use the package-local test scripts from this directory:
-
-```bash
-npm run test:desktop:all
-npm run test:desktop:existing
-npm run test:desktop:fresh
-npm run test:desktop:dmg
-npm run test:desktop:platforms
-```
-
-`test:desktop:existing` builds the packaged app and opens it normally. It should use an existing `hermes` CLI if one is on `PATH`, preserving the user’s real `~/.hermes` config.
-
-`test:desktop:fresh` builds the packaged app and launches it in a throwaway fresh-install sandbox. It sets `HERMES_DESKTOP_IGNORE_EXISTING=1`, points Electron `userData` at a temp dir, points `HERMES_HOME` at a temp dir, and launches through the factory-image bootstrap path without touching your real desktop runtime or `~/.hermes`.
-
-`test:desktop:dmg` builds and opens the DMG.
-
-`test:desktop:platforms` runs platform bootstrap-path assertions, including:
-- existing-CLI vs factory-image runtime path selection semantics
-- WSL2 protection against Windows `.exe/.cmd/.bat/.ps1` overrides
-- platform-specific runtime import checks (`winpty` vs `ptyprocess`)
-
-For fast reruns without rebuilding:
-
-```bash
-HERMES_DESKTOP_SKIP_BUILD=1 npm run test:desktop:fresh
-HERMES_DESKTOP_SKIP_BUILD=1 npm run test:desktop:existing
-HERMES_DESKTOP_SKIP_BUILD=1 npm run test:desktop:dmg
-```
-
-## Installing Locally
-
-```bash
-npm run dist:mac:dmg
-open release/Hermes-0.0.0-arm64.dmg
-```
-
-Drag `Hermes` to Applications. If testing repeated installs, replace the existing app.
-
-## Runtime Bootstrap
-
-Hermes Desktop shares its install layout with the CLI installers (`scripts/install.ps1`, `scripts/install.sh`) so a desktop-only user and a CLI-only user end up with the same files in the same places.
-

-```
-
-The factory image (`Contents/Resources/hermes-agent` on macOS, `resources\hermes-agent` on Windows) ships inside the `.app` / `.exe` and seeds `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent` on first launch.
-
-### Resolution order
-
-The desktop resolves a Hermes backend in this order:
-
-1. `HERMES_DESKTOP_HERMES_ROOT` — explicit dev override.
-2. Existing `hermes` CLI on PATH (skipped when `HERMES_DESKTOP_IGNORE_EXISTING=1`).
-3. Repo source root — only when running `npm run dev` from a checkout. Takes precedence over `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent` so devs always run their local edits.
-4. `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent` if it already exists (CLI installer or prior desktop launch).
-5. Packaged + factory image present → sync factory → `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent`, then use it.
-6. Pip-installed `hermes_cli` module via system Python.
-
-### First-launch flow on a packaged install
-
-1. Sync factory image → `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent`. Skipped if a `.git` directory exists at the destination (developer install) — never overwrites a user's local repo.
-2. Create venv at `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent/venv` using system Python (errors out with a Python-install hint if no Python 3.11+ is found).
-3. `pip install -e HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent` — `pyproject.toml` is the single source of truth for dependencies.
-4. Stamp `.hermes-desktop-runtime.json` with the schema version + pyproject hash + factory version.
-
-Subsequent launches compare the marker against the active `pyproject.toml` and skip steps 2-4 when nothing has changed.
-
-### Upgrades
-
-A new installer drops a new factory image. On next launch the marker mismatches → factory contents are copied over `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent` (excluding `venv/`, `.git`, `__pycache__`, etc.), `pip install -e` re-runs to pick up new deps, the marker is re-stamped. The venv is preserved across upgrades to keep the upgrade fast when deps haven't moved.
-
-A user who installed via `scripts/install.ps1` / `scripts/install.sh` (so `HERMES_HOME/hermes-agent/.git` exists) is detected as a developer install and the desktop never overwrites their checkout — they keep using `hermes update` / `git pull` to update.
-
-## Debugging
-
-Desktop boot logs are written to:
-
-```text
-HERMES_HOME/logs/desktop.log     # %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\logs\desktop.log on Windows
-                                  # ~/.hermes/logs/desktop.log on macOS / Linux
-```
-
-If the UI reports `Desktop boot failed`, check that log first. It includes the backend command output and recent Python traceback context.
-
-To reset desktop runtime state (forces re-sync from the factory image and re-`pip install -e .` on next launch):
-
-```bash
-# macOS / Linux
-rm "$HOME/.hermes/hermes-agent/.hermes-desktop-runtime.json"
-
-# Windows (PowerShell)
-Remove-Item "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\hermes\hermes-agent\.hermes-desktop-runtime.json"
-```
-
-For a full reset of just the Python venv (rare — usually only needed if the venv is broken):
-
-```bash
-# macOS / Linux
-rm -rf "$HOME/.hermes/hermes-agent/venv"
-
-# Windows (PowerShell)
-Remove-Item -Recurse -Force "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\hermes\hermes-agent\venv"
-```
-
-To reset stale macOS microphone permission prompts:
-
-```bash
-tccutil reset Microphone com.github.Electron
-tccutil reset Microphone com.nousresearch.hermes
-```
-
-## Verification
-
-Run before handing off installer changes:
-
-```bash
-npm run fix
-npm run type-check
-npm run lint
-npm run test:desktop:all
-```
-
-Current lint may report existing warnings, but it should exit with no errors.
