fix: raise session hygiene threshold from 50% to 85% of context

Session hygiene was firing at the same threshold (50%) as the agent's
own context compressor, causing premature compression on every turn
in long gateway sessions (especially Telegram).

Hygiene is a safety net for pathologically large sessions that would
cause API failures — it should NOT be doing normal compression work.
The agent's own compressor handles that during its tool loop with
accurate real token counts from the API.

Changes:
- Default hygiene threshold: 0.50 → 0.85 (fires only when truly large)
- Hygiene threshold is now independent of compression.threshold config
  (that setting controls the agent's compressor, not the pre-agent safety net)
- Removed env var override for hygiene threshold (CONTEXT_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD
  still controls the agent's own compressor)

-### Slash Command Registry (`hermes_cli/commands.py`)
+### Adding CLI Commands
 
-All slash commands are defined in a central `COMMAND_REGISTRY` list of `CommandDef` objects. Every downstream consumer derives from this registry automatically:
-
-- **CLI** — `process_command()` resolves aliases via `resolve_command()`, dispatches on canonical name
-- **Gateway** — `GATEWAY_KNOWN_COMMANDS` frozenset for hook emission, `resolve_command()` for dispatch
-- **Gateway help** — `gateway_help_lines()` generates `/help` output

-- **Slack** — `slack_subcommand_map()` generates `/hermes` subcommand routing
-- **Autocomplete** — `COMMANDS` flat dict feeds `SlashCommandCompleter`
-- **CLI help** — `COMMANDS_BY_CATEGORY` dict feeds `show_help()`
-
-### Adding a Slash Command
-
-1. Add a `CommandDef` entry to `COMMAND_REGISTRY` in `hermes_cli/commands.py`:
-```python
-CommandDef("mycommand", "Description of what it does", "Session",
-           aliases=("mc",), args_hint="[arg]"),
-```
-2. Add handler in `HermesCLI.process_command()` in `cli.py`:
-```python
-elif canonical == "mycommand":
-    self._handle_mycommand(cmd_original)
-```
-3. If the command is available in the gateway, add a handler in `gateway/run.py`:
-```python
-if canonical == "mycommand":
-    return await self._handle_mycommand(event)
-```
-4. For persistent settings, use `save_config_value()` in `cli.py`
-
-**CommandDef fields:**
-- `name` — canonical name without slash (e.g. `"background"`)
-- `description` — human-readable description
-- `category` — one of `"Session"`, `"Configuration"`, `"Tools & Skills"`, `"Info"`, `"Exit"`
-- `aliases` — tuple of alternative names (e.g. `("bg",)`)
-- `args_hint` — argument placeholder shown in help (e.g. `"<prompt>"`, `"[name]"`)
-- `cli_only` — only available in the interactive CLI
-- `gateway_only` — only available in messaging platforms
-- `gateway_config_gate` — config dotpath (e.g. `"display.tool_progress_command"`); when set on a `cli_only` command, the command becomes available in the gateway if the config value is truthy. `GATEWAY_KNOWN_COMMANDS` always includes config-gated commands so the gateway can dispatch them; help/menus only show them when the gate is open.
-
-**Adding an alias** requires only adding it to the `aliases` tuple on the existing `CommandDef`. No other file changes needed — dispatch, help text, Telegram menu, Slack mapping, and autocomplete all update automatically.
+1. Add to `COMMANDS` dict in `hermes_cli/commands.py`
+2. Add handler in `HermesCLI.process_command()` in `cli.py`
+3. For persistent settings, use `save_config_value()` in `cli.py`

-## Profiles: Multi-Instance Support
-
-Hermes supports **profiles** — multiple fully isolated instances, each with its own
-`HERMES_HOME` directory (config, API keys, memory, sessions, skills, gateway, etc.).
-
-The core mechanism: `_apply_profile_override()` in `hermes_cli/main.py` sets
-`HERMES_HOME` before any module imports. All 119+ references to `get_hermes_home()`
-automatically scope to the active profile.
-
-### Rules for profile-safe code
-
-1. **Use `get_hermes_home()` for all HERMES_HOME paths.** Import from `hermes_constants`.
-   NEVER hardcode `~/.hermes` or `Path.home() / ".hermes"` in code that reads/writes state.
-   ```python
-   # GOOD
-   from hermes_constants import get_hermes_home
-   config_path = get_hermes_home() / "config.yaml"
-
-   # BAD — breaks profiles
-   config_path = Path.home() / ".hermes" / "config.yaml"
-   ```
-
-2. **Use `display_hermes_home()` for user-facing messages.** Import from `hermes_constants`.
-   This returns `~/.hermes` for default or `~/.hermes/profiles/<name>` for profiles.
-   ```python
-   # GOOD
-   from hermes_constants import display_hermes_home
-   print(f"Config saved to {display_hermes_home()}/config.yaml")
-
-   # BAD — shows wrong path for profiles
-   print("Config saved to ~/.hermes/config.yaml")
-   ```
-
-3. **Module-level constants are fine** — they cache `get_hermes_home()` at import time,
-   which is AFTER `_apply_profile_override()` sets the env var. Just use `get_hermes_home()`,
-   not `Path.home() / ".hermes"`.
-
-4. **Tests that mock `Path.home()` must also set `HERMES_HOME`** — since code now uses
-   `get_hermes_home()` (reads env var), not `Path.home() / ".hermes"`:
-   ```python
-   with patch.object(Path, "home", return_value=tmp_path), \
-        patch.dict(os.environ, {"HERMES_HOME": str(tmp_path / ".hermes")}):
-       ...
-   ```
-
-5. **Gateway platform adapters should use token locks** — if the adapter connects with
-   a unique credential (bot token, API key), call `acquire_scoped_lock()` from
-   `gateway.status` in the `connect()`/`start()` method and `release_scoped_lock()` in
-   `disconnect()`/`stop()`. This prevents two profiles from using the same credential.
-   See `gateway/platforms/telegram.py` for the canonical pattern.
-
-6. **Profile operations are HOME-anchored, not HERMES_HOME-anchored** — `_get_profiles_root()`
-   returns `Path.home() / ".hermes" / "profiles"`, NOT `get_hermes_home() / "profiles"`.
-   This is intentional — it lets `hermes -p coder profile list` see all profiles regardless
-   of which one is active.
-
 ## Known Pitfalls
 
-### DO NOT hardcode `~/.hermes` paths
-Use `get_hermes_home()` from `hermes_constants` for code paths. Use `display_hermes_home()`
-for user-facing print/log messages. Hardcoding `~/.hermes` breaks profiles — each profile
-has its own `HERMES_HOME` directory. This was the source of 5 bugs fixed in PR #3575.
-
 ### DO NOT use `simple_term_menu` for interactive menus

 Leaks as literal `?[K` text under `prompt_toolkit`'s `patch_stdout`. Use space-padding: `f"\r{line}{' ' * pad}"`.
 
 ### `_last_resolved_tool_names` is a process-global in `model_tools.py`
-`_run_single_child()` in `delegate_tool.py` saves and restores this global around subagent execution. If you add new code that reads this global, be aware it may be temporarily stale during child agent runs.
-
-### DO NOT hardcode cross-tool references in schema descriptions
-Tool schema descriptions must not mention tools from other toolsets by name (e.g., `browser_navigate` saying "prefer web_search"). Those tools may be unavailable (missing API keys, disabled toolset), causing the model to hallucinate calls to non-existent tools. If a cross-reference is needed, add it dynamically in `get_tool_definitions()` in `model_tools.py` — see the `browser_navigate` / `execute_code` post-processing blocks for the pattern.
+When subagents overwrite this global, `execute_code` calls after delegation may fail with missing tool imports. Known bug.
 
 ### Tests must not write to `~/.hermes/`
 The `_isolate_hermes_home` autouse fixture in `tests/conftest.py` redirects `HERMES_HOME` to a temp dir. Never hardcode `~/.hermes/` paths in tests.
 
-**Profile tests**: When testing profile features, also mock `Path.home()` so that
-`_get_profiles_root()` and `_get_default_hermes_home()` resolve within the temp dir.
-Use the pattern from `tests/hermes_cli/test_profiles.py`:
-```python
-@pytest.fixture
-def profile_env(tmp_path, monkeypatch):
-    home = tmp_path / ".hermes"
-    home.mkdir()
-    monkeypatch.setattr(Path, "home", lambda: tmp_path)
-    monkeypatch.setenv("HERMES_HOME", str(home))
-    return home
-```

-## CLI vs Messaging Quick Reference
-
-Hermes has two entry points: start the terminal UI with `hermes`, or run the gateway and talk to it from Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, or Email. Once you're in a conversation, many slash commands are shared across both interfaces.
-
-| Action | CLI | Messaging platforms |
-|---------|-----|---------------------|
-| Start chatting | `hermes` | Run `hermes gateway setup` + `hermes gateway start`, then send the bot a message |
-| Start fresh conversation | `/new` or `/reset` | `/new` or `/reset` |
-| Change model | `/model [provider:model]` | `/model [provider:model]` |
-| Set a personality | `/personality [name]` | `/personality [name]` |
-| Retry or undo the last turn | `/retry`, `/undo` | `/retry`, `/undo` |
-| Compress context / check usage | `/compress`, `/usage`, `/insights [--days N]` | `/compress`, `/usage`, `/insights [days]` |
-| Browse skills | `/skills` or `/<skill-name>` | `/skills` or `/<skill-name>` |
-| Interrupt current work | `Ctrl+C` or send a new message | `/stop` or send a new message |
-| Platform-specific status | `/platforms` | `/status`, `/sethome` |
-
-For the full command lists, see the [CLI guide](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/cli) and the [Messaging Gateway guide](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/user-guide/messaging).

-# Hermes Agent v0.3.0 (v2026.3.17)
-
-**Release Date:** March 17, 2026
-
-> The streaming, plugins, and provider release — unified real-time token delivery, first-class plugin architecture, rebuilt provider system with Vercel AI Gateway, native Anthropic provider, smart approvals, live Chrome CDP browser connect, ACP IDE integration, Honcho memory, voice mode, persistent shell, and 50+ bug fixes across every platform.
-
----
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Unified Streaming Infrastructure** — Real-time token-by-token delivery in CLI and all gateway platforms. Responses stream as they're generated instead of arriving as a block. ([#1538](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1538))
-
-- **First-Class Plugin Architecture** — Drop Python files into `~/.hermes/plugins/` to extend Hermes with custom tools, commands, and hooks. No forking required. ([#1544](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1544), [#1555](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1555))
-
-- **Native Anthropic Provider** — Direct Anthropic API calls with Claude Code credential auto-discovery, OAuth PKCE flows, and native prompt caching. No OpenRouter middleman needed. ([#1097](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1097))
-
-- **Smart Approvals + /stop Command** — Codex-inspired approval system that learns which commands are safe and remembers your preferences. `/stop` kills the current agent run immediately. ([#1543](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1543))
-
-- **Honcho Memory Integration** — Async memory writes, configurable recall modes, session title integration, and multi-user isolation in gateway mode. By @erosika. ([#736](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/736))
-
-- **Voice Mode** — Push-to-talk in CLI, voice notes in Telegram/Discord, Discord voice channel support, and local Whisper transcription via faster-whisper. ([#1299](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1299), [#1185](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1185), [#1429](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1429))
-
-- **Concurrent Tool Execution** — Multiple independent tool calls now run in parallel via ThreadPoolExecutor, significantly reducing latency for multi-tool turns. ([#1152](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1152))
-
-- **PII Redaction** — When `privacy.redact_pii` is enabled, personally identifiable information is automatically scrubbed before sending context to LLM providers. ([#1542](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1542))
-
-- **`/browser connect` via CDP** — Attach browser tools to a live Chrome instance through Chrome DevTools Protocol. Debug, inspect, and interact with pages you already have open. ([#1549](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1549))
-
-- **Vercel AI Gateway Provider** — Route Hermes through Vercel's AI Gateway for access to their model catalog and infrastructure. ([#1628](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1628))
-
-- **Centralized Provider Router** — Rebuilt provider system with `call_llm` API, unified `/model` command, auto-detect provider on model switch, and direct endpoint overrides for auxiliary/delegation clients. ([#1003](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1003), [#1506](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1506), [#1375](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1375))
-
-- **ACP Server (IDE Integration)** — VS Code, Zed, and JetBrains can now connect to Hermes as an agent backend, with full slash command support. ([#1254](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1254), [#1532](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1532))
-
-- **Persistent Shell Mode** — Local and SSH terminal backends can maintain shell state across tool calls — cd, env vars, and aliases persist. By @alt-glitch. ([#1067](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1067), [#1483](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1483))
-
-- **Agentic On-Policy Distillation (OPD)** — New RL training environment for distilling agent policies, expanding the Atropos training ecosystem. ([#1149](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/1149))
-

-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Nous Portal now supports 400+ models** — The Nous Research inference portal has expanded dramatically, giving Hermes Agent users access to over 400 models through a single provider endpoint
-
-- **Hugging Face as a first-class inference provider** — Full integration with HF Inference API including curated agentic model picker that maps to OpenRouter analogues, live `/models` endpoint probe, and setup wizard flow ([#3419](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3419), [#3440](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3440))
-
-- **Telegram Private Chat Topics** — Project-based conversations with functional skill binding per topic, enabling isolated workflows within a single Telegram chat ([#3163](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3163))
-
-- **Native Modal SDK backend** — Replaced swe-rex dependency with native Modal SDK (`Sandbox.create.aio` + `exec.aio`), eliminating tunnels and simplifying the Modal terminal backend ([#3538](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3538))
-
-- **Plugin lifecycle hooks activated** — `pre_llm_call`, `post_llm_call`, `on_session_start`, and `on_session_end` hooks now fire in the agent loop and CLI/gateway, completing the plugin hook system ([#3542](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3542))
-
-- **Improved OpenAI Model Reliability** — Added `GPT_TOOL_USE_GUIDANCE` to prevent GPT models from describing intended actions instead of making tool calls, plus automatic stripping of stale budget warnings from conversation history that caused models to avoid tools across turns ([#3528](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3528))
-
-- **Nix flake** — Full uv2nix build, NixOS module with persistent container mode, auto-generated config keys from Python source, and suffix PATHs for agent-friendliness ([#20](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20), [#3274](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3274), [#3061](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3061)) by @alt-glitch
-
-- **Supply chain hardening** — Removed compromised `litellm` dependency, pinned all dependency version ranges, regenerated `uv.lock` with hashes, added CI workflow scanning PRs for supply chain attack patterns, and bumped deps to fix CVEs ([#2796](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/2796), [#2810](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/2810), [#2812](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/2812), [#2816](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/2816), [#3073](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3073))
-
-- **Anthropic output limits fix** — Replaced hardcoded 16K `max_tokens` with per-model native output limits (128K for Opus 4.6, 64K for Sonnet 4.6), fixing "Response truncated" and thinking-budget exhaustion on direct Anthropic API ([#3426](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3426), [#3444](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3444))

-# Hermes Agent v0.6.0 (v2026.3.30)
-
-**Release Date:** March 30, 2026
-
-> The multi-instance release — Profiles for running isolated agent instances, MCP server mode, Docker container, fallback provider chains, two new messaging platforms (Feishu/Lark and WeCom), Telegram webhook mode, Slack multi-workspace OAuth, 95 PRs and 16 resolved issues in 2 days.
-
----
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Profiles — Multi-Instance Hermes** — Run multiple isolated Hermes instances from the same installation. Each profile gets its own config, memory, sessions, skills, and gateway service. Create with `hermes profile create`, switch with `hermes -p <name>`, export/import for sharing. Full token-lock isolation prevents two profiles from using the same bot credential. ([#3681](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3681))
-
-- **MCP Server Mode** — Expose Hermes conversations and sessions to any MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, etc.) via `hermes mcp serve`. Browse conversations, read messages, search across sessions, and manage attachments — all through the Model Context Protocol. Supports both stdio and Streamable HTTP transports. ([#3795](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3795))
-
-- **Docker Container** — Official Dockerfile for running Hermes Agent in a container. Supports both CLI and gateway modes with volume-mounted config. ([#3668](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3668), closes [#850](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/850))
-
-- **Ordered Fallback Provider Chain** — Configure multiple inference providers with automatic failover. When your primary provider returns errors or is unreachable, Hermes automatically tries the next provider in the chain. Configure via `fallback_providers` in config.yaml. ([#3813](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3813), closes [#1734](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/1734))
-
-- **Feishu/Lark Platform Support** — Full gateway adapter for Feishu (飞书) and Lark with event subscriptions, message cards, group chat, image/file attachments, and interactive card callbacks. ([#3799](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3799), [#3817](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3817), closes [#1788](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/1788))

-## 🏗️ Core Agent & Architecture
-
-### Provider & Model Support
-- **Ordered fallback provider chain** — automatic failover across multiple configured providers ([#3813](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3813))
-- **Fix api_mode on provider switch** — switching providers via `hermes model` now correctly clears stale `api_mode` instead of hardcoding `chat_completions`, fixing 404s for providers with Anthropic-compatible endpoints ([#3726](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3726), [#3857](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3857), closes [#3685](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/3685))
-- **Stop silent OpenRouter fallback** — when no provider is configured, Hermes now raises a clear error instead of silently routing to OpenRouter ([#3807](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3807), [#3862](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3862))
-- **Gemini 3.1 preview models** — added to OpenRouter and Nous Portal catalogs ([#3803](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3803), closes [#3753](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/3753))
-- **Gemini direct API context length** — full context length resolution for direct Google AI endpoints ([#3876](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3876))
-- **gpt-5.4-mini** added to Codex fallback catalog ([#3855](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3855))
-- **Curated model lists preferred** over live API probe when the probe returns fewer models ([#3856](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3856), [#3867](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3867))
-- **User-friendly 429 rate limit messages** with Retry-After countdown ([#3809](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3809))
-- **Auxiliary client placeholder key** for local servers without auth requirements ([#3842](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3842))
-- **INFO-level logging** for auxiliary provider resolution ([#3866](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3866))
-
-### Agent Loop & Conversation
-- **Subagent status reporting** — reports `completed` status when summary exists instead of generic failure ([#3829](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3829))
-- **Session log file updated during compression** — prevents stale file references after context compression ([#3835](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3835))
-- **Omit empty tools param** — sends no `tools` parameter when empty instead of `None`, fixing compatibility with strict providers ([#3820](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3820))
-
-### Profiles & Multi-Instance
-- **Profiles system** — `hermes profile create/list/switch/delete/export/import/rename`. Each profile gets isolated HERMES_HOME, gateway service, CLI wrapper. Token locks prevent credential collisions. Tab completion for profile names. ([#3681](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3681))
-- **Profile-aware display paths** — all user-facing `~/.hermes` paths replaced with `display_hermes_home()` to show the correct profile directory ([#3623](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3623))
-- **Lazy display_hermes_home imports** — prevents `ImportError` during `hermes update` when modules cache stale bytecode ([#3776](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3776))
-- **HERMES_HOME for protected paths** — `.env` write-deny path now respects HERMES_HOME instead of hardcoded `~/.hermes` ([#3840](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/3840))

-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Pluggable Memory Provider Interface** — Memory is now an extensible plugin system. Third-party memory backends (Honcho, vector stores, custom DBs) implement a simple provider ABC and register via the plugin system. Built-in memory is the default provider. Honcho integration restored to full parity as the reference plugin with profile-scoped host/peer resolution. ([#4623](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4623), [#4616](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4616), [#4355](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4355))
-
-- **Same-Provider Credential Pools** — Configure multiple API keys for the same provider with automatic rotation. Thread-safe `least_used` strategy distributes load across keys, and 401 failures trigger automatic rotation to the next credential. Set up via the setup wizard or `credential_pool` config. ([#4188](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4188), [#4300](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4300), [#4361](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4361))
-
-- **Camofox Anti-Detection Browser Backend** — New local browser backend using Camoufox for stealth browsing. Persistent sessions with VNC URL discovery for visual debugging, configurable SSRF bypass for local backends, auto-install via `hermes tools`. ([#4008](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4008), [#4419](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4419), [#4292](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4292))
-
-- **Inline Diff Previews** — File write and patch operations now show inline diffs in the tool activity feed, giving you visual confirmation of what changed before the agent moves on. ([#4411](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4411), [#4423](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4423))
-
-- **API Server Session Continuity & Tool Streaming** — The API server (Open WebUI integration) now streams tool progress events in real-time and supports `X-Hermes-Session-Id` headers for persistent sessions across requests. Sessions persist to the shared SessionDB. ([#4092](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4092), [#4478](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4478), [#4802](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4802))

Your editor's MCP ecosystem flows directly into the agent. ([#4705](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4705))
-
-- **Gateway Hardening** — Major stability pass across race conditions, photo media delivery, flood control, stuck sessions, approval routing, and compression death spirals. The gateway is substantially more reliable in production. ([#4727](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4727), [#4750](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4750), [#4798](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4798), [#4557](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4557))
-
-- **Security: Secret Exfiltration Blocking** — Browser URLs and LLM responses are now scanned for secret patterns, blocking exfiltration attempts via URL encoding, base64, or prompt injection. Credential directory protections expanded to `.docker`, `.azure`, `.config/gh`. Execute_code sandbox output is redacted. ([#4483](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4483), [#4360](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4360), [#4305](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4305), [#4327](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/4327))

-# Hermes Agent v0.8.0 (v2026.4.8)
-
-**Release Date:** April 8, 2026
-
-> The intelligence release — background task auto-notifications, free MiMo v2 Pro on Nous Portal, live model switching across all platforms, self-optimized GPT/Codex guidance, native Google AI Studio, smart inactivity timeouts, approval buttons, MCP OAuth 2.1, and 209 merged PRs with 82 resolved issues.
-
----
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Background Process Auto-Notifications (`notify_on_complete`)** — Background tasks can now automatically notify the agent when they finish. Start a long-running process (AI model training, test suites, deployments, builds) and the agent gets notified on completion — no polling needed. The agent can keep working on other things and pick up results when they land. ([#5779](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5779))
-
-- **Free Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro on Nous Portal** — Nous Portal now supports the free-tier Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro model for auxiliary tasks (compression, vision, summarization), with free-tier model gating and pricing display in model selection. ([#6018](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6018), [#5880](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5880))
-
-- **Live Model Switching (`/model` Command)** — Switch models and providers mid-session from CLI, Telegram, Discord, Slack, or any gateway platform. Aggregator-aware resolution keeps you on OpenRouter/Nous when possible, with automatic cross-provider fallback when needed. Interactive model pickers on Telegram and Discord with inline buttons. ([#5181](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5181), [#5742](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5742))
-
-- **Self-Optimized GPT/Codex Tool-Use Guidance** — The agent diagnosed and patched 5 failure modes in GPT and Codex tool calling through automated behavioral benchmarking, dramatically improving reliability on OpenAI models. Includes execution discipline guidance and thinking-only prefill continuation for structured reasoning. ([#6120](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6120), [#5414](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5414), [#5931](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5931))
-
-- **Google AI Studio (Gemini) Native Provider** — Direct access to Gemini models through Google's AI Studio API. Includes automatic models.dev registry integration for real-time context length detection across any provider. ([#5577](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5577))
-
-- **Inactivity-Based Agent Timeouts** — Gateway and cron timeouts now track actual tool activity instead of wall-clock time. Long-running tasks that are actively working will never be killed — only truly idle agents time out. ([#5389](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5389), [#5440](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5440))
-
-- **Approval Buttons on Slack & Telegram** — Dangerous command approval via native platform buttons instead of typing `/approve`. Slack gets thread context preservation; Telegram gets emoji reactions for approval status. ([#5890](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5890), [#5975](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5975))
-
-- **MCP OAuth 2.1 PKCE + OSV Malware Scanning** — Full standards-compliant OAuth for MCP server authentication, plus automatic malware scanning of MCP extension packages via the OSV vulnerability database. ([#5420](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5420), [#5305](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5305))
-
-- **Centralized Logging & Config Validation** — Structured logging to `~/.hermes/logs/` (agent.log + errors.log) with the `hermes logs` command for tailing and filtering. Config structure validation catches malformed YAML at startup before it causes cryptic failures. ([#5430](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5430), [#5426](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5426))
-
-- **Plugin System Expansion** — Plugins can now register CLI subcommands, receive request-scoped API hooks with correlation IDs, prompt for required env vars during install, and hook into session lifecycle events (finalize/reset). ([#5295](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5295), [#5427](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5427), [#5470](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5470), [#6129](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6129))
-
-- **Matrix Tier 1 & Platform Hardening** — Matrix gets reactions, read receipts, rich formatting, and room management. Discord adds channel controls and ignored channels. Signal gets full MEDIA: tag delivery. Mattermost gets file attachments. Comprehensive reliability fixes across all platforms. ([#5275](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5275), [#5975](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5975), [#5602](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5602))
-
-- **Security Hardening Pass** — Consolidated SSRF protections, timing attack mitigations, tar traversal prevention, credential leakage guards, cron path traversal hardening, and cross-session isolation. Terminal workdir sanitization across all backends. ([#5944](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5944), [#5613](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5613), [#5629](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5629))

-"""Abstract base class for pluggable context engines.
-
-A context engine controls how conversation context is managed when
-approaching the model's token limit. The built-in ContextCompressor
-is the default implementation. Third-party engines (e.g. LCM) can
-replace it via the plugin system or by being placed in the
-``plugins/context_engine/<name>/`` directory.
-
-Selection is config-driven: ``context.engine`` in config.yaml.
-Default is ``"compressor"`` (the built-in). Only one engine is active.
-
-The engine is responsible for:
-  - Deciding when compaction should fire
-  - Performing compaction (summarization, DAG construction, etc.)
-  - Optionally exposing tools the agent can call (e.g. lcm_grep)
-  - Tracking token usage from API responses
-
-Lifecycle:
-  1. Engine is instantiated and registered (plugin register() or default)
-  2. on_session_start() called when a conversation begins
-  3. update_from_response() called after each API response with usage data
-  4. should_compress() checked after each turn
-  5. compress() called when should_compress() returns True
-  6. on_session_end() called at real session boundaries (CLI exit, /reset,
-     gateway session expiry) — NOT per-turn

-"""OpenAI-compatible shim that forwards Hermes requests to `copilot --acp`.
-
-This adapter lets Hermes treat the GitHub Copilot ACP server as a chat-style
-backend. Each request starts a short-lived ACP session, sends the formatted
-conversation as a single prompt, collects text chunks, and converts the result
-back into the minimal shape Hermes expects from an OpenAI client.

-"""Abstract base class for pluggable memory providers.
-
-Memory providers give the agent persistent recall across sessions. One
-external provider is active at a time alongside the always-on built-in
-memory (MEMORY.md / USER.md). The MemoryManager enforces this limit.
-
-Built-in memory is always active as the first provider and cannot be removed.
-External providers (Honcho, Hindsight, Mem0, etc.) are additive — they never
-disable the built-in store. Only one external provider runs at a time to
-prevent tool schema bloat and conflicting memory backends.
-
-Registration:
-  1. Built-in: BuiltinMemoryProvider — always present, not removable.
-  2. Plugins: Ship in plugins/memory/<name>/, activated by memory.provider config.
-
-Lifecycle (called by MemoryManager, wired in run_agent.py):
-  initialize()          — connect, create resources, warm up
-  system_prompt_block()  — static text for the system prompt
-  prefetch(query)        — background recall before each turn
-  sync_turn(user, asst)  — async write after each turn
-  get_tool_schemas()     — tool schemas to expose to the model
-  handle_tool_call()     — dispatch a tool call
-  shutdown()             — clean exit
-
-Optional hooks (override to opt in):
-  on_turn_start(turn, message, **kwargs) — per-turn tick with runtime context
-  on_session_end(messages)               — end-of-session extraction
-  on_pre_compress(messages) -> str       — extract before context compression
-  on_memory_write(action, target, content) — mirror built-in memory writes
-  on_delegation(task, result, **kwargs)  — parent-side observation of subagent work

-Fetches from https://models.dev/api.json — a community-maintained database

-
-- **Provider metadata**: name, base URL, env vars, documentation link
-- **Model metadata**: context window, max output, cost/M tokens, capabilities
-  (reasoning, tools, vision, PDF, audio), modalities, knowledge cutoff,
-  open-weights flag, family grouping, deprecation status
-
-Data resolution order (like TypeScript OpenCode):
-  1. Bundled snapshot (ships with the package — offline-first)
-  2. Disk cache (~/.hermes/models_dev_cache.json)
-  3. Network fetch (https://models.dev/api.json)
-  4. Background refresh every 60 minutes

-"""Progressive subdirectory hint discovery.
-
-As the agent navigates into subdirectories via tool calls (read_file, terminal,
-search_files, etc.), this module discovers and loads project context files
-(AGENTS.md, CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules) from those directories.  Discovered hints
-are appended to the tool result so the model gets relevant context at the moment
-it starts working in a new area of the codebase.
-
-This complements the startup context loading in ``prompt_builder.py`` which only
-loads from the CWD.  Subdirectory hints are discovered lazily and injected into
-the conversation without modifying the system prompt (preserving prompt caching).
-
-Inspired by Block/goose's SubdirectoryHintTracker.

-# Hermes Agent — ACP (Agent Client Protocol) Setup Guide
-
-Hermes Agent supports the **Agent Client Protocol (ACP)**, allowing it to run as
-a coding agent inside your editor. ACP lets your IDE send tasks to Hermes, and
-Hermes responds with file edits, terminal commands, and explanations — all shown
-natively in the editor UI.
-
----
-
-## Prerequisites
-
-- Hermes Agent installed and configured (`hermes setup` completed)
-- An API key / provider set up in `~/.hermes/.env` or via `hermes login`
-- Python 3.11+
-
-Install the ACP extra:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[acp]"
-```
-
----
-
-## VS Code Setup
-
-### 1. Install the ACP Client extension
-
-Open VS Code and install **ACP Client** from the marketplace:
-
-- Press `Ctrl+Shift+X` (or `Cmd+Shift+X` on macOS)
-- Search for **"ACP Client"**
-- Click **Install**
-
-Or install from the command line:
-
-```bash
-code --install-extension anysphere.acp-client
-```
-
-### 2. Configure settings.json
-
-Open your VS Code settings (`Ctrl+,` → click the `{}` icon for JSON) and add:
-
-```json
-{
-  "acpClient.agents": [
-    {
-      "name": "hermes-agent",
-      "registryDir": "/path/to/hermes-agent/acp_registry"
-    }
-  ]
-}
-```
-
-Replace `/path/to/hermes-agent` with the actual path to your Hermes Agent
-installation (e.g. `~/.hermes/hermes-agent`).
-
-Alternatively, if `hermes` is on your PATH, the ACP Client can discover it
-automatically via the registry directory.
-
-### 3. Restart VS Code
-
-After configuring, restart VS Code. You should see **Hermes Agent** appear in
-the ACP agent picker in the chat/agent panel.
-
----
-
-## Zed Setup
-
-Zed has built-in ACP support.
-
-### 1. Configure Zed settings
-
-Open Zed settings (`Cmd+,` on macOS or `Ctrl+,` on Linux) and add to your
-`settings.json`:
-
-```json
-{
-  "agent_servers": {
-    "hermes-agent": {
-      "type": "custom",
-      "command": "hermes",
-      "args": ["acp"],
-    },
-  },
-}
-```
-
-### 2. Restart Zed
-
-Hermes Agent will appear in the agent panel. Select it and start a conversation.
-
----
-
-## JetBrains Setup (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.)
-
-### 1. Install the ACP plugin
-
-- Open **Settings** → **Plugins** → **Marketplace**
-- Search for **"ACP"** or **"Agent Client Protocol"**
-- Install and restart the IDE
-
-### 2. Configure the agent
-
-- Open **Settings** → **Tools** → **ACP Agents**
-- Click **+** to add a new agent
-- Set the registry directory to your `acp_registry/` folder:
-  `/path/to/hermes-agent/acp_registry`
-- Click **OK**
-
-### 3. Use the agent
-
-Open the ACP panel (usually in the right sidebar) and select **Hermes Agent**.
-
----
-
-## What You Will See
-
-Once connected, your editor provides a native interface to Hermes Agent:
-
-### Chat Panel
-A conversational interface where you can describe tasks, ask questions, and
-give instructions. Hermes responds with explanations and actions.
-
-### File Diffs
-When Hermes edits files, you see standard diffs in the editor. You can:
-- **Accept** individual changes
-- **Reject** changes you don't want
-- **Review** the full diff before applying
-
-### Terminal Commands
-When Hermes needs to run shell commands (builds, tests, installs), the editor
-shows them in an integrated terminal. Depending on your settings:
-- Commands may run automatically
-- Or you may be prompted to **approve** each command
-
-### Approval Flow
-For potentially destructive operations, the editor will prompt you for
-approval before Hermes proceeds. This includes:
-- File deletions
-- Shell commands
-- Git operations
-
----
-
-## Configuration
-
-Hermes Agent under ACP uses the **same configuration** as the CLI:
-
-- **API keys / providers**: `~/.hermes/.env`
-- **Agent config**: `~/.hermes/config.yaml`
-- **Skills**: `~/.hermes/skills/`
-- **Sessions**: `~/.hermes/state.db`
-
-You can run `hermes setup` to configure providers, or edit `~/.hermes/.env`
-directly.
-
-### Changing the model
-
-Edit `~/.hermes/config.yaml`:
-
-```yaml
-model: openrouter/nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b
-```
-
-Or set the `HERMES_MODEL` environment variable.
-
-### Toolsets
-
-ACP sessions use the curated `hermes-acp` toolset by default. It is designed for editor workflows and intentionally excludes things like messaging delivery, cronjob management, and audio-first UX features.
-
----
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### Agent doesn't appear in the editor
-
-1. **Check the registry path** — make sure the `acp_registry/` directory path
-   in your editor settings is correct and contains `agent.json`.
-2. **Check `hermes` is on PATH** — run `which hermes` in a terminal. If not
-   found, you may need to activate your virtualenv or add it to PATH.
-3. **Restart the editor** after changing settings.
-
-### Agent starts but errors immediately
-
-1. Run `hermes doctor` to check your configuration.
-2. Check that you have a valid API key: `hermes status`
-3. Try running `hermes acp` directly in a terminal to see error output.
-
-### "Module not found" errors
-
-Make sure you installed the ACP extra:
-
-```bash
-pip install -e ".[acp]"
-```
-
-### Slow responses
-
-- ACP streams responses, so you should see incremental output. If the agent
-  appears stuck, check your network connection and API provider status.
-- Some providers have rate limits. Try switching to a different model/provider.
-
-### Permission denied for terminal commands
-
-If the editor blocks terminal commands, check your ACP Client extension
-settings for auto-approval or manual-approval preferences.
-
-### Logs
-
-Hermes logs are written to stderr when running in ACP mode. Check:
-- VS Code: **Output** panel → select **ACP Client** or **Hermes Agent**
-- Zed: **View** → **Toggle Terminal** and check the process output
-- JetBrains: **Event Log** or the ACP tool window
-
-You can also enable verbose logging:
-
-```bash
-HERMES_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG hermes acp
-```

-# Pricing Accuracy Architecture
-
-Date: 2026-03-16
-
-## Goal
-
-Hermes should only show dollar costs when they are backed by an official source for the user's actual billing path.
-
-This design replaces the current static, heuristic pricing flow in:
-
-- `run_agent.py`
-- `agent/usage_pricing.py`
-- `agent/insights.py`
-- `cli.py`
-
-with a provider-aware pricing system that:
-
-- handles cache billing correctly
-- distinguishes `actual` vs `estimated` vs `included` vs `unknown`
-- reconciles post-hoc costs when providers expose authoritative billing data
-- supports direct providers, OpenRouter, subscriptions, enterprise pricing, and custom endpoints
-
-## Problems In The Current Design
-
-Current Hermes behavior has four structural issues:
-
-1. It stores only `prompt_tokens` and `completion_tokens`, which is insufficient for providers that bill cache reads and cache writes separately.
-2. It uses a static model price table and fuzzy heuristics, which can drift from current official pricing.
-3. It assumes public API list pricing matches the user's real billing path.
-4. It has no distinction between live estimates and reconciled billed cost.
-
-## Design Principles
-
-1. Normalize usage before pricing.
-2. Never fold cached tokens into plain input cost.
-3. Track certainty explicitly.
-4. Treat the billing path as part of the model identity.
-5. Prefer official machine-readable sources over scraped docs.
-6. Use post-hoc provider cost APIs when available.
-7. Show `n/a` rather than inventing precision.
-
-## High-Level Architecture
-
-The new system has four layers:
-
-1. `usage_normalization`
-   Converts raw provider usage into a canonical usage record.
-2. `pricing_source_resolution`
-   Determines the billing path, source of truth, and applicable pricing source.
-3. `cost_estimation_and_reconciliation`
-   Produces an immediate estimate when possible, then replaces or annotates it with actual billed cost later.
-4. `presentation`
-   `/usage`, `/insights`, and the status bar display cost with certainty metadata.
-
-## Canonical Usage Record
-
-Add a canonical usage model that every provider path maps into before any pricing math happens.
-
-Suggested structure:
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-class CanonicalUsage:
-    provider: str
-    billing_provider: str
-    model: str
-    billing_route: str
-
-    input_tokens: int = 0
-    output_tokens: int = 0
-    cache_read_tokens: int = 0
-    cache_write_tokens: int = 0
-    reasoning_tokens: int = 0
-    request_count: int = 1
-
-    raw_usage: dict[str, Any] | None = None
-    raw_usage_fields: dict[str, str] | None = None
-    computed_fields: set[str] | None = None
-
-    provider_request_id: str | None = None
-    provider_generation_id: str | None = None
-    provider_response_id: str | None = None
-```
-
-Rules:
-
-- `input_tokens` means non-cached input only.
-- `cache_read_tokens` and `cache_write_tokens` are never merged into `input_tokens`.
-- `output_tokens` excludes cache metrics.
-- `reasoning_tokens` is telemetry unless a provider officially bills it separately.
-
-This is the same normalization pattern used by `opencode`, extended with provenance and reconciliation ids.
-
-## Provider Normalization Rules
-
-### OpenAI Direct
-
-Source usage fields:
-
-- `prompt_tokens`
-- `completion_tokens`
-- `prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens`
-
-Normalization:
-
-- `cache_read_tokens = cached_tokens`
-- `input_tokens = prompt_tokens - cached_tokens`
-- `cache_write_tokens = 0` unless OpenAI exposes it in the relevant route
-- `output_tokens = completion_tokens`
-
-### Anthropic Direct
-
-Source usage fields:
-
-- `input_tokens`
-- `output_tokens`
-- `cache_read_input_tokens`
-- `cache_creation_input_tokens`
-
-Normalization:
-
-- `input_tokens = input_tokens`
-- `output_tokens = output_tokens`
-- `cache_read_tokens = cache_read_input_tokens`
-- `cache_write_tokens = cache_creation_input_tokens`
-
-### OpenRouter
-
-Estimate-time usage normalization should use the response usage payload with the same rules as the underlying provider when possible.
-
-Reconciliation-time records should also store:
-
-- OpenRouter generation id
-- native token fields when available
-- `total_cost`
-- `cache_discount`
-- `upstream_inference_cost`
-- `is_byok`
-
-### Gemini / Vertex
-
-Use official Gemini or Vertex usage fields where available.
-
-If cached content tokens are exposed:
-
-- map them to `cache_read_tokens`
-
-If a route exposes no cache creation metric:
-
-- store `cache_write_tokens = 0`
-- preserve the raw usage payload for later extension
-
-### DeepSeek And Other Direct Providers
-
-Normalize only the fields that are officially exposed.
-
-If a provider does not expose cache buckets:
-
-- do not infer them unless the provider explicitly documents how to derive them
-
-### Subscription / Included-Cost Routes
-
-These still use the canonical usage model.
-
-Tokens are tracked normally. Cost depends on billing mode, not on whether usage exists.
-
-## Billing Route Model
-
-Hermes must stop keying pricing solely by `model`.
-
-Introduce a billing route descriptor:
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-class BillingRoute:
-    provider: str
-    base_url: str | None
-    model: str
-    billing_mode: str
-    organization_hint: str | None = None
-```
-
-`billing_mode` values:
-
-- `official_cost_api`
-- `official_generation_api`
-- `official_models_api`
-- `official_docs_snapshot`
-- `subscription_included`
-- `user_override`
-- `custom_contract`
-- `unknown`
-
-Examples:
-
-- OpenAI direct API with Costs API access: `official_cost_api`
-- Anthropic direct API with Usage & Cost API access: `official_cost_api`
-- OpenRouter request before reconciliation: `official_models_api`
-- OpenRouter request after generation lookup: `official_generation_api`
-- GitHub Copilot style subscription route: `subscription_included`
-- local OpenAI-compatible server: `unknown`
-- enterprise contract with configured rates: `custom_contract`
-
-## Cost Status Model
-
-Every displayed cost should have:
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-class CostResult:
-    amount_usd: Decimal | None
-    status: Literal["actual", "estimated", "included", "unknown"]
-    source: Literal[
-        "provider_cost_api",
-        "provider_generation_api",
-        "provider_models_api",
-        "official_docs_snapshot",
-        "user_override",
-        "custom_contract",
-        "none",
-    ]
-    label: str
-    fetched_at: datetime | None
-    pricing_version: str | None
-    notes: list[str]
-```
-
-Presentation rules:
-
-- `actual`: show dollar amount as final
-- `estimated`: show dollar amount with estimate labeling
-- `included`: show `included` or `$0.00 (included)` depending on UX choice
-- `unknown`: show `n/a`
-
-## Official Source Hierarchy
-
-Resolve cost using this order:
-
-1. Request-level or account-level official billed cost
-2. Official machine-readable model pricing
-3. Official docs snapshot
-4. User override or custom contract
-5. Unknown
-
-The system must never skip to a lower level if a higher-confidence source exists for the current billing route.
-
-## Provider-Specific Truth Rules
-
-### OpenAI Direct
-
-Preferred truth:
-
-1. Costs API for reconciled spend
-2. Official pricing page for live estimate
-
-### Anthropic Direct
-
-Preferred truth:
-
-1. Usage & Cost API for reconciled spend
-2. Official pricing docs for live estimate
-
-### OpenRouter
-
-Preferred truth:
-
-1. `GET /api/v1/generation` for reconciled `total_cost`
-2. `GET /api/v1/models` pricing for live estimate
-
-Do not use underlying provider public pricing as the source of truth for OpenRouter billing.
-
-### Gemini / Vertex
-
-Preferred truth:
-
-1. official billing export or billing API for reconciled spend when available for the route
-2. official pricing docs for estimate
-
-### DeepSeek
-
-Preferred truth:
-
-1. official machine-readable cost source if available in the future
-2. official pricing docs snapshot today
-
-### Subscription-Included Routes
-
-Preferred truth:
-
-1. explicit route config marking the model as included in subscription
-
-These should display `included`, not an API list-price estimate.
-
-### Custom Endpoint / Local Model
-
-Preferred truth:
-
-1. user override
-2. custom contract config
-3. unknown
-
-These should default to `unknown`.
-
-## Pricing Catalog
-
-Replace the current `MODEL_PRICING` dict with a richer pricing catalog.
-
-Suggested record:
-
-```python
-@dataclass
-class PricingEntry:
-    provider: str
-    route_pattern: str
-    model_pattern: str
-
-    input_cost_per_million: Decimal | None = None
-    output_cost_per_million: Decimal | None = None
-    cache_read_cost_per_million: Decimal | None = None
-    cache_write_cost_per_million: Decimal | None = None
-    request_cost: Decimal | None = None
-    image_cost: Decimal | None = None
-
-    source: str = "official_docs_snapshot"
-    source_url: str | None = None
-    fetched_at: datetime | None = None
-    pricing_version: str | None = None
-```
-
-The catalog should be route-aware:
-
-- `openai:gpt-5`
-- `anthropic:claude-opus-4-6`
-- `openrouter:anthropic/claude-opus-4.6`
-- `copilot:gpt-4o`
-
-This avoids conflating direct-provider billing with aggregator billing.
-
-## Pricing Sync Architecture
-
-Introduce a pricing sync subsystem instead of manually maintaining a single hardcoded table.
-
-Suggested modules:
-
-- `agent/pricing/catalog.py`
-- `agent/pricing/sources.py`
-- `agent/pricing/sync.py`
-- `agent/pricing/reconcile.py`
-- `agent/pricing/types.py`
-
-### Sync Sources
-
-- OpenRouter models API
-- official provider docs snapshots where no API exists
-- user overrides from config
-
-### Sync Output
-
-Cache pricing entries locally with:
-
-- source URL
-- fetch timestamp
-- version/hash
-- confidence/source type
-
-### Sync Frequency
-
-- startup warm cache
-- background refresh every 6 to 24 hours depending on source
-- manual `hermes pricing sync`
-
-## Reconciliation Architecture
-
-Live requests may produce only an estimate initially. Hermes should reconcile them later when a provider exposes actual billed cost.
-
-Suggested flow:
-
-1. Agent call completes.
-2. Hermes stores canonical usage plus reconciliation ids.
-3. Hermes computes an immediate estimate if a pricing source exists.
-4. A reconciliation worker fetches actual cost when supported.
-5. Session and message records are updated with `actual` cost.
-
-This can run:
-
-- inline for cheap lookups
-- asynchronously for delayed provider accounting
-
-## Persistence Changes
-
-Session storage should stop storing only aggregate prompt/completion totals.
-
-Add fields for both usage and cost certainty:
-
-- `input_tokens`
-- `output_tokens`
-- `cache_read_tokens`
-- `cache_write_tokens`
-- `reasoning_tokens`
-- `estimated_cost_usd`
-- `actual_cost_usd`
-- `cost_status`
-- `cost_source`
-- `pricing_version`
-- `billing_provider`
-- `billing_mode`
-
-If schema expansion is too large for one PR, add a new pricing events table:
-
-```text
-session_cost_events
-  id
-  session_id
-  request_id
-  provider
-  model
-  billing_mode
-  input_tokens
-  output_tokens
-  cache_read_tokens
-  cache_write_tokens
-  estimated_cost_usd
-  actual_cost_usd
-  cost_status
-  cost_source
-  pricing_version
-  created_at
-  updated_at
-```
-
-## Hermes Touchpoints
-
-### `run_agent.py`
-
-Current responsibility:
-
-- parse raw provider usage
-- update session token counters
-
-New responsibility:
-
-- build `CanonicalUsage`
-- update canonical counters
-- store reconciliation ids
-- emit usage event to pricing subsystem
-
-### `agent/usage_pricing.py`
-
-Current responsibility:
-
-- static lookup table
-- direct cost arithmetic
-
-New responsibility:
-
-- move or replace with pricing catalog facade
-- no fuzzy model-family heuristics
-- no direct pricing without billing-route context
-
-### `cli.py`
-
-Current responsibility:
-
-- compute session cost directly from prompt/completion totals
-
-New responsibility:
-
-- display `CostResult`
-- show status badges:
-  - `actual`
-  - `estimated`
-  - `included`
-  - `n/a`
-
-### `agent/insights.py`
-
-Current responsibility:
-
-- recompute historical estimates from static pricing
-
-New responsibility:
-
-- aggregate stored pricing events
-- prefer actual cost over estimate
-- surface estimates only when reconciliation is unavailable
-
-## UX Rules
-
-### Status Bar
-
-Show one of:
-
-- `$1.42`
-- `~$1.42`
-- `included`
-- `cost n/a`
-
-Where:
-
-- `$1.42` means `actual`
-- `~$1.42` means `estimated`
-- `included` means subscription-backed or explicitly zero-cost route
-- `cost n/a` means unknown
-
-### `/usage`
-
-Show:
-
-- token buckets
-- estimated cost
-- actual cost if available
-- cost status
-- pricing source
-
-### `/insights`
-
-Aggregate:
-
-- actual cost totals
-- estimated-only totals
-- unknown-cost sessions count
-- included-cost sessions count
-
-## Config And Overrides
-
-Add user-configurable pricing overrides in config:
-
-```yaml
-pricing:
-  mode: hybrid
-  sync_on_startup: true
-  sync_interval_hours: 12
-  overrides:
-    - provider: openrouter
-      model: anthropic/claude-opus-4.6
-      billing_mode: custom_contract
-      input_cost_per_million: 4.25
-      output_cost_per_million: 22.0
-      cache_read_cost_per_million: 0.5
-      cache_write_cost_per_million: 6.0
-  included_routes:
-    - provider: copilot
-      model: "*"
-    - provider: codex-subscription
-      model: "*"
-```
-
-Overrides must win over catalog defaults for the matching billing route.
-
-## Rollout Plan
-
-### Phase 1
-
-- add canonical usage model
-- split cache token buckets in `run_agent.py`
-- stop pricing cache-inflated prompt totals
-- preserve current UI with improved backend math
-
-### Phase 2
-
-- add route-aware pricing catalog
-- integrate OpenRouter models API sync
-- add `estimated` vs `included` vs `unknown`
-
-### Phase 3
-
-- add reconciliation for OpenRouter generation cost
-- add actual cost persistence
-- update `/insights` to prefer actual cost
-
-### Phase 4
-
-- add direct OpenAI and Anthropic reconciliation paths
-- add user overrides and contract pricing
-- add pricing sync CLI command
-
-## Testing Strategy
-
-Add tests for:
-
-- OpenAI cached token subtraction
-- Anthropic cache read/write separation
-- OpenRouter estimated vs actual reconciliation
-- subscription-backed models showing `included`
-- custom endpoints showing `n/a`
-- override precedence
-- stale catalog fallback behavior
-
-Current tests that assume heuristic pricing should be replaced with route-aware expectations.
-
-## Non-Goals
-
-- exact enterprise billing reconstruction without an official source or user override
-- backfilling perfect historical cost for old sessions that lack cache bucket data
-- scraping arbitrary provider web pages at request time
-
-## Recommendation
-
-Do not expand the existing `MODEL_PRICING` dict.
-
-That path cannot satisfy the product requirement. Hermes should instead migrate to:
-
-- canonical usage normalization
-- route-aware pricing sources
-- estimate-then-reconcile cost lifecycle
-- explicit certainty states in the UI
-
-This is the minimum architecture that makes the statement "Hermes pricing is backed by official sources where possible, and otherwise clearly labeled" defensible.

 ### Patches (`patches.py`)
 
-**Problem**: Some hermes-agent tools use `asyncio.run()` internally (e.g., the Modal backend). This crashes when called from inside Atropos's event loop because `asyncio.run()` cannot be nested.
+**Problem**: Some hermes-agent tools use `asyncio.run()` internally (e.g., mini-swe-agent's Modal backend via SWE-ReX). This crashes when called from inside Atropos's event loop because `asyncio.run()` cannot be nested.
 
-**Solution**: `ModalEnvironment` uses a dedicated `_AsyncWorker` background thread with its own event loop. The calling code sees a sync interface, but internally all async Modal SDK calls happen on the worker thread so they don't conflict with Atropos's loop. This is built directly into `tools/environments/modal.py` — no monkey-patching required.
+**Solution**: `patches.py` monkey-patches `SwerexModalEnvironment` to use a dedicated background thread (`_AsyncWorker`) with its own event loop. The calling code sees the same sync interface, but internally the async work happens on a separate thread that doesn't conflict with Atropos's loop.
 
-`patches.py` is now a no-op (kept for backward compatibility with imports).
+What gets patched:
+- `SwerexModalEnvironment.__init__` -- creates Modal deployment on a background thread
+- `SwerexModalEnvironment.execute` -- runs commands on the same background thread
+- `SwerexModalEnvironment.stop` -- stops deployment on the background thread
+
+The patches are:
+- **Idempotent** -- calling `apply_patches()` multiple times is safe
+- **Transparent** -- same interface and behavior, only the internal async execution changes
+- **Universal** -- works identically in normal CLI use (no running event loop)
+
+Applied automatically at import time by `hermes_base_env.py`.

 Monkey patches for making hermes-agent tools work inside async frameworks (Atropos).
 
 Problem:
-    Some tools use asyncio.run() internally (e.g., Modal backend via SWE-ReX,
+    Some tools use asyncio.run() internally (e.g., mini-swe-agent's Modal backend,
     web_extract). This crashes when called from inside Atropos's event loop because
     asyncio.run() can't be nested.
 
 Solution:
-    The Modal environment (tools/environments/modal.py) now uses a dedicated
-    _AsyncWorker thread internally, making it safe for both CLI and Atropos use.
-    No monkey-patching is required.
+    Replace the problematic methods with versions that use a dedicated background
+    thread with its own event loop. The calling code sees the same sync interface --
+    call a function, get a result -- but internally the async work happens on a
+    separate thread that doesn't conflict with Atropos's loop.
 
-    This module is kept for backward compatibility. apply_patches() is a no-op.
+    These patches are safe for normal CLI use too: when there's no running event
+    loop, the behavior is identical (the background thread approach works regardless).
+
+What gets patched:
+    - SwerexModalEnvironment.__init__ -- creates Modal deployment on a background thread
+    - SwerexModalEnvironment.execute -- runs commands on the same background thread
+    - SwerexModalEnvironment.stop -- stops deployment on the background thread
 
 Usage:
     Call apply_patches() once at import time (done automatically by hermes_base_env.py).
-    This is idempotent and safe to call multiple times.
