-  # Move :main to point at the SHA tag the merge job pushed.
-  #
-  # :main is the floating tag that tracks the tip of the main branch.  Every
-  # merge to main retags :main forward.  Users who want "latest dev build"
-  # pull :main; users who want stable releases pull :latest.
-  #
-  # The real serialization guarantee comes from the top-level concurrency
-  # group (`docker-${{ github.ref }}` with `cancel-in-progress: false`),
-  # which ensures at most one workflow run for this ref executes at a time.
-  # That means two move-main steps for the same ref cannot overlap.
-  #
-  # This job has its own concurrency group as defense-in-depth: if the
-  # top-level group is ever loosened, queued move-mains will run serially
-  # in arrival order, each one running the ancestor check below and either
-  # advancing :main or skipping.  `cancel-in-progress: false` matches the
-  # top-level setting — we don't want rapid pushes to cancel a queued
-  # move-main, because the ancestor check is the real safety mechanism
-  # and queueing is cheap (move-main is a ~30s registry op).
-  #
-  # Combined with the ancestor check, this means :main only ever moves
-  # forward in git history.

-name: uv.lock check
-
-# Verify uv.lock is in sync with pyproject.toml.  Blocking check — PRs
-# that modify pyproject.toml without regenerating uv.lock (or vice versa)
-# must not merge, because the Docker build's `uv sync --frozen` step will
-# fail on a stale lockfile and we'd rather catch it here than in the
-# docker-publish workflow on main.
-#
-# ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-# 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
-#     uv lock                     # regenerates uv.lock against new pyproject.toml
-#     git add uv.lock
-#     git commit -m "chore: refresh uv.lock after rebase onto main"
-#     git push --force-with-lease # if you rebased
-#
-# 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
-# build: a post-merge build would see the same merged state and fail
-# the same way.  Better to catch it here than after merge.

-
-          **If this is a PR:** this check runs against the merged state
-          (your branch + current `main`), not just your branch.  If
-          `uv lock --check` passes locally, your branch is likely behind
-          `main` — recent changes to `pyproject.toml` on `main` aren't
-          reflected in your branch's `uv.lock` yet.
-
-          To fix, sync with main and regenerate the lockfile:
-
-          ```bash
-          git fetch origin main
-          git rebase origin/main   # or `git merge origin/main`
-          uv lock                  # regenerate against new pyproject.toml
-          git add uv.lock
-          git commit -m "chore: refresh uv.lock after syncing with main"
-          git push --force-with-lease  # drop --force-with-lease if you merged
-          ```
-
-          **If you only changed pyproject.toml:** run `uv lock` locally
-          and commit the result.
-
-          This check is blocking because the Docker image build uses
-          `uv sync --frozen --extra all`, which rejects stale lockfiles
-          — catching it here avoids a ~15 min failed docker-publish run
-          on `main` post-merge.
-          EOF

-source .venv/bin/activate   # or: source venv/bin/activate
+source venv/bin/activate  # ALWAYS activate before running Python
 ```
 
-`scripts/run_tests.sh` probes `.venv` first, then `venv`, then
-`$HOME/.hermes/hermes-agent/venv` (for worktrees that share a venv with the

-TypeScript owns the screen. Python owns sessions, tools, model calls, and slash command logic.
-
-### Transport
-
-Newline-delimited JSON-RPC over stdio. Requests from Ink, events from Python. See `tui_gateway/server.py` for the full method/event catalog.
-
-### Key Surfaces
-
-| Surface | Ink component | Gateway method |
-|---------|---------------|----------------|
-| Chat streaming | `app.tsx` + `messageLine.tsx` | `prompt.submit` → `message.delta/complete` |
-| Tool activity | `thinking.tsx` | `tool.start/progress/complete` |
-| Approvals | `prompts.tsx` | `approval.respond` ← `approval.request` |
-| Clarify/sudo/secret | `prompts.tsx`, `maskedPrompt.tsx` | `clarify/sudo/secret.respond` |
-| Session picker | `sessionPicker.tsx` | `session.list/resume` |
-| Slash commands | Local handler + fallthrough | `slash.exec` → `_SlashWorker`, `command.dispatch` |
-| Completions | `useCompletion` hook | `complete.slash`, `complete.path` |
-| Theming | `theme.ts` + `branding.tsx` | `gateway.ready` with skin data |
-
-### Slash Command Flow
-
-1. Built-in client commands (`/help`, `/quit`, `/clear`, `/resume`, `/copy`, `/paste`, etc.) handled locally in `app.tsx`
-2. Everything else → `slash.exec` (runs in persistent `_SlashWorker` subprocess) → `command.dispatch` fallback
-
-### Dev Commands
-
-```bash
-cd ui-tui
-npm install       # first time
-npm run dev       # watch mode (rebuilds hermes-ink + tsx --watch)
-npm start         # production
-npm run build     # full build (hermes-ink + tsc)
-npm run type-check # typecheck only (tsc --noEmit)

-npm run fmt       # prettier
-npm test          # vitest

-
-### TUI in the Dashboard (`hermes dashboard` → `/chat`)
-
-The dashboard embeds the real `hermes --tui` — **not** a rewrite.  See `hermes_cli/pty_bridge.py` + the `@app.websocket("/api/pty")` endpoint in `hermes_cli/web_server.py`.
-
-- Browser loads `web/src/pages/ChatPage.tsx`, which mounts xterm.js's `Terminal` with the WebGL renderer, `@xterm/addon-fit` for container-driven resize, and `@xterm/addon-unicode11` for modern wide-character widths.
-- `/api/pty?token=…` upgrades to a WebSocket; auth uses the same ephemeral `_SESSION_TOKEN` as REST, via query param (browsers can't set `Authorization` on WS upgrade).
-- The server spawns whatever `hermes --tui` would spawn, through `ptyprocess` (POSIX PTY — WSL works, native Windows does not).
-- Frames: raw PTY bytes each direction; resize via `\x1b[RESIZE:<cols>;<rows>]` intercepted on the server and applied with `TIOCSWINSZ`.
-
-**Do not re-implement the primary chat experience in React.** The main transcript, composer/input flow (including slash-command behavior), and PTY-backed terminal belong to the embedded `hermes --tui` — anything new you add to Ink shows up in the dashboard automatically. If you find yourself rebuilding the transcript or composer for the dashboard, stop and extend Ink instead.
-
-**Structured React UI around the TUI is allowed when it is not a second chat surface.** Sidebar widgets, inspectors, summaries, status panels, and similar supporting views (e.g. `ChatSidebar`, `ModelPickerDialog`, `ToolCall`) are fine when they complement the embedded TUI rather than replacing the transcript / composer / terminal. Keep their state independent of the PTY child's session and surface their failures non-destructively so the terminal pane keeps working unimpaired.

 ## Adding New Tools
 
-For most custom or local-only tools, do **not** edit Hermes core. Use the plugin
-route instead: create `~/.hermes/plugins/<name>/plugin.yaml` and
-`~/.hermes/plugins/<name>/__init__.py`, then register tools with
-`ctx.register_tool(...)`. Plugin toolsets are discovered automatically and can be
-enabled or disabled without touching `tools/` or `toolsets.py`.

-## Plugins
-
-Hermes has two plugin surfaces. Both live under `plugins/` in the repo so
-repo-shipped plugins can be discovered alongside user-installed ones in
-`~/.hermes/plugins/` and pip-installed entry points.
-
-### General plugins (`hermes_cli/plugins.py` + `plugins/<name>/`)
-
-`PluginManager` discovers plugins from `~/.hermes/plugins/`, `./.hermes/plugins/`,
-and pip entry points. Each plugin exposes a `register(ctx)` function that
-can:
-
-- Register Python-callback lifecycle hooks:
-  `pre_tool_call`, `post_tool_call`, `pre_llm_call`, `post_llm_call`,
-  `on_session_start`, `on_session_end`
-- Register new tools via `ctx.register_tool(...)`
-- Register CLI subcommands via `ctx.register_cli_command(...)` — the
-  plugin's argparse tree is wired into `hermes` at startup so
-  `hermes <pluginname> <subcmd>` works with no change to `main.py`
-
-Hooks are invoked from `model_tools.py` (pre/post tool) and `run_agent.py`
-(lifecycle). **Discovery timing pitfall:** `discover_plugins()` only runs
-as a side effect of importing `model_tools.py`. Code paths that read plugin
-state without importing `model_tools.py` first must call `discover_plugins()`
-explicitly (it's idempotent).
-
-### Memory-provider plugins (`plugins/memory/<name>/`)
-
-Separate discovery system for pluggable memory backends. Current built-in
-providers include **honcho, mem0, supermemory, byterover, hindsight,
-holographic, openviking, retaindb**.
-
-Each provider implements the `MemoryProvider` ABC (see `agent/memory_provider.py`)
-and is orchestrated by `agent/memory_manager.py`. Lifecycle hooks include
-`sync_turn(turn_messages)`, `prefetch(query)`, `shutdown()`, and optional
-`post_setup(hermes_home, config)` for setup-wizard integration.
-
-**CLI commands via `plugins/memory/<name>/cli.py`:** if a memory plugin
-defines `register_cli(subparser)`, `discover_plugin_cli_commands()` finds
-it at argparse setup time and wires it into `hermes <plugin>`. The
-framework only exposes CLI commands for the **currently active** memory
-provider (read from `memory.provider` in config.yaml), so disabled
-providers don't clutter `hermes --help`.
-
-**Rule (Teknium, May 2026):** plugins MUST NOT modify core files
-(`run_agent.py`, `cli.py`, `gateway/run.py`, `hermes_cli/main.py`, etc.).
-If a plugin needs a capability the framework doesn't expose, expand the
-generic plugin surface (new hook, new ctx method) — never hardcode
-plugin-specific logic into core. PR #5295 removed 95 lines of hardcoded
-honcho argparse from `main.py` for exactly this reason.
-
-**No new in-tree memory providers (policy, May 2026):** the set of
-built-in memory providers under `plugins/memory/` is closed. New memory
-backends must ship as **standalone plugin repos** that users install
-into `~/.hermes/plugins/` (or via pip entry points) — they implement
-the same `MemoryProvider` ABC, register through the same discovery
-path, and integrate via `hermes memory setup` / `post_setup()` without
-landing in this tree. PRs that add a new directory under
-`plugins/memory/` will be closed with a pointer to publish the
-provider as its own repo. Existing in-tree providers stay; bug fixes
-to them are welcome.
-
-### Model-provider plugins (`plugins/model-providers/<name>/`)
-
-Every inference backend (openrouter, anthropic, gmi, deepseek, nvidia, …)
-ships as a plugin here. Each plugin's `__init__.py` calls
-`providers.register_provider(ProviderProfile(...))` at module load.
-`providers/__init__.py._discover_providers()` is a **lazy, separate
-discovery system** — scanned on first `get_provider_profile()` or
-`list_providers()` call, NOT by the general PluginManager.
-
-Scan order:
-1. Bundled: `<repo>/plugins/model-providers/<name>/`
-2. User: `$HERMES_HOME/plugins/model-providers/<name>/`
-3. Legacy: `<repo>/providers/<name>.py` (back-compat)
-
-User plugins of the same name override bundled ones — `register_provider()`
-is last-writer-wins. This lets third parties swap out any built-in
-profile without a repo patch.
-
-The general PluginManager records `kind: model-provider` manifests but does
-NOT import them (would double-instantiate `ProviderProfile`). Plugins
-without an explicit `kind:` get auto-coerced via a source-text heuristic
-(`register_provider` + `ProviderProfile` in `__init__.py`).
-
-Full authoring guide: `website/docs/developer-guide/model-provider-plugin.md`.
-
-### Dashboard / context-engine / image-gen plugin directories
-
-`plugins/context_engine/`, `plugins/image_gen/`, etc. follow the same
-pattern (ABC + orchestrator + per-plugin directory). Context engines
-plug into `agent/context_engine.py`; image-gen providers into
-`agent/image_gen_provider.py`. Reference / docs-companion plugins
-(`example-dashboard`, `strike-freedom-cockpit`, `plugin-llm-example`,
-`plugin-llm-async-example`) live in the
-[`hermes-example-plugins`](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-example-plugins)
-companion repo, not in this tree.

-## Skills
-
-Two parallel surfaces:
-
-- **`skills/`** — built-in skills shipped and loadable by default.
-  Organized by category directories (e.g. `skills/github/`, `skills/mlops/`).
-- **`optional-skills/`** — heavier or niche skills shipped with the repo but
-  NOT active by default. Installed explicitly via
-  `hermes skills install official/<category>/<skill>`. Adapter lives in
-  `tools/skills_hub.py` (`OptionalSkillSource`). Categories include
-  `autonomous-ai-agents`, `blockchain`, `communication`, `creative`,
-  `devops`, `email`, `health`, `mcp`, `migration`, `mlops`, `productivity`,
-  `research`, `security`, `web-development`.
-
-When reviewing skill PRs, check which directory they target — heavy-dep or
-niche skills belong in `optional-skills/`.
-
-### SKILL.md frontmatter
-
-Standard fields: `name`, `description`, `version`, `author`, `license`,
-`platforms` (OS-gating list: `[macos]`, `[linux, macos]`, ...),
-`metadata.hermes.tags`, `metadata.hermes.category`,
-`metadata.hermes.related_skills`, `metadata.hermes.config` (config.yaml
-settings the skill needs — stored under `skills.config.<key>`, prompted
-during setup, injected at load time).
-
-Top-level `tags:` and `category:` are also accepted and mirrored from
-`metadata.hermes.*` by the loader.
-
-### Skill authoring standards (HARDLINE)
-
-Every new or modernized skill — bundled, optional, or contributed —
-must meet these standards before merge. Reviewers reject PRs that
-violate them.
-
-1. **`description` ≤ 60 characters, one sentence, ends with a period.**
-   Long descriptions bloat skill listings and dilute the model's
-   attention when many skills are loaded. State the capability, not
-   the implementation. No marketing words ("powerful",
-   "comprehensive", "seamless", "advanced"). Don't repeat the skill
-   name. Verify with:
-   ```python
-   import re, pathlib
-   m = re.search(r'^description: (.*)$',
-                 pathlib.Path('skills/<cat>/<name>/SKILL.md').read_text(),
-                 re.MULTILINE)
-   assert len(m.group(1)) <= 60, len(m.group(1))
-   ```
-
-2. **Tools referenced in SKILL.md prose must be native Hermes tools or
-   MCP servers the skill explicitly expects.** When the skill needs a
-   capability, point at the proper tool by name in backticks
-   (`` `terminal` ``, `` `web_extract` ``, `` `read_file` ``,
-   `` `patch` ``, `` `search_files` ``, `` `vision_analyze` ``,
-   `` `browser_navigate` ``, `` `delegate_task` ``, etc.). Do NOT
-   name shell utilities the agent already has wrapped — `grep` →
-   `search_files`, `cat`/`head`/`tail` → `read_file`, `sed`/`awk` →
-   `patch`, `find`/`ls` → `search_files target='files'`. If the skill
-   depends on an MCP server, name the MCP server and document the
-   expected setup in `## Prerequisites`. Anything else (third-party
-   CLIs, shell pipelines, etc.) is fair game inside script files but
-   should not be the headline interaction surface in the prose.
-
-3. **`platforms:` gating audited against actual script imports.**
-   Skills that use POSIX-only primitives (`fcntl`, `termios`,
-   `os.setsid`, `os.kill(pid, 0)` for liveness, `/proc`, `/tmp`
-   hardcoded, `signal.SIGKILL`, bash heredocs, `osascript`, `apt`,
-   `systemctl`) must declare their supported platforms. Default
-   posture: try to fix it cross-platform first — `tempfile.gettempdir`,
-   `pathlib.Path`, `psutil.pid_exists`, Python-level filtering instead
-   of `grep`. Gate to a narrower set only when the dependency is
-   genuinely platform-bound.
-
-4. **`author` credits the human contributor first.** For external
-   contributions, the contributor's real name + GitHub handle goes
-   first; "Hermes Agent" is the secondary collaborator. If the
-   contributor's commit shows "Hermes Agent" as author (because they
-   used Hermes to draft the skill), replace it with their actual name
-   — credit the human, not the tool.
-
-5. **SKILL.md body uses the modern section order.** `# <Skill> Skill`
-   title, 2-3 sentence intro stating what it does and doesn't do,
-   `## When to Use`, `## Prerequisites`, `## How to Run`,
-   `## Quick Reference`, `## Procedure`, `## Pitfalls`,
-   `## Verification`. Target ~200 lines for a complex skill,
-   ~100 lines for a simple one. Cut redundant intro fluff, marketing
-   prose, and re-explanations of env vars already in
-   `## Prerequisites`.
-
-6. **Scripts go in `scripts/`, references in `references/`,
-   templates in `templates/`.** Don't expect the model to inline-write
-   parsers, XML walkers, or non-trivial logic every call — ship a
-   helper script. Reference it from SKILL.md by path relative to the
-   skill directory.
-
-7. **Tests live at `tests/skills/test_<skill>_skill.py`** and use only
-   stdlib + pytest + `unittest.mock`. No live network calls. Run via
-   `scripts/run_tests.sh tests/skills/test_<skill>_skill.py -q`.
-
-8. **`.env.example` additions are isolated to a clearly delimited
-   block.** Don't touch the surrounding file — contributor-supplied
-   `.env.example` versions are usually stale and edits outside the
-   skill's own block must be dropped during salvage.

-## Toolsets
-
-All toolsets are defined in `toolsets.py` as a single `TOOLSETS` dict.
-Each platform's adapter picks a base toolset (e.g. Telegram uses
-`"messaging"`); `_HERMES_CORE_TOOLS` is the default bundle most
-platforms inherit from.
-
-Current toolset keys: `browser`, `clarify`, `code_execution`, `cronjob`,
-`debugging`, `delegation`, `discord`, `discord_admin`, `feishu_doc`,
-`feishu_drive`, `file`, `homeassistant`, `image_gen`, `kanban`, `memory`,
-`messaging`, `moa`, `rl`, `safe`, `search`, `session_search`, `skills`,
-`spotify`, `terminal`, `todo`, `tts`, `video`, `vision`, `web`, `yuanbao`.
-
-Enable/disable per platform via `hermes tools` (the curses UI) or the
-`tools.<platform>.enabled` / `tools.<platform>.disabled` lists in
-`config.yaml`.
-
----
-
-## Delegation (`delegate_task`)
-
-`tools/delegate_tool.py` spawns a subagent with an isolated
-context + terminal session. Synchronous: the parent waits for the
-child's summary before continuing its own loop — if the parent is
-interrupted, the child is cancelled.
-
-Two shapes:
-
-- **Single:** pass `goal` (+ optional `context`, `toolsets`).
-- **Batch (parallel):** pass `tasks: [...]` — each gets its own subagent
-  running concurrently. Concurrency is capped by
-  `delegation.max_concurrent_children` (default 3).
-
-Roles:
-
-- `role="leaf"` (default) — focused worker. Cannot call `delegate_task`,
-  `clarify`, `memory`, `send_message`, `execute_code`.
-- `role="orchestrator"` — retains `delegate_task` so it can spawn its
-  own workers. Gated by `delegation.orchestrator_enabled` (default true)
-  and bounded by `delegation.max_spawn_depth` (default 2).
-
-Key config knobs (under `delegation:` in `config.yaml`):
-`max_concurrent_children`, `max_spawn_depth`, `child_timeout_seconds`,
-`orchestrator_enabled`, `subagent_auto_approve`, `inherit_mcp_toolsets`,
-`max_iterations`.
-
-Synchronicity rule: delegate_task is **not** durable. For long-running
-work that must outlive the current turn, use `cronjob` or
-`terminal(background=True, notify_on_complete=True)` instead.
-
----
-
-## Curator (skill lifecycle)
-
-Background skill-maintenance system that tracks usage on agent-created
-skills and auto-archives stale ones. Users never lose skills; archives
-go to `~/.hermes/skills/.archive/` and are restorable.
-
-- **Core:** `agent/curator.py` (review loop, auto-transitions, LLM review
-  prompt) + `agent/curator_backup.py` (pre-run tar.gz snapshots).
-- **CLI:** `hermes_cli/curator.py` wires `hermes curator <verb>` where
-  verbs are: `status`, `run`, `pause`, `resume`, `pin`, `unpin`,
-  `archive`, `restore`, `prune`, `backup`, `rollback`.
-- **Telemetry:** `tools/skill_usage.py` owns the sidecar
-  `~/.hermes/skills/.usage.json` — per-skill `use_count`, `view_count`,
-  `patch_count`, `last_activity_at`, `state` (active / stale /
-  archived), `pinned`.
-
-Invariants:
-- Curator only touches skills with `created_by: "agent"` provenance —
-  bundled + hub-installed skills are off-limits.
-- Never deletes; max destructive action is archive.
-- Pinned skills are exempt from every auto-transition and from the
-  LLM review pass.
-- `skill_manage(action="delete")` refuses pinned skills; patch/edit/
-  write_file/remove_file go through so the agent can keep improving
-  pinned skills.
-
-Config section (`curator:` in `config.yaml`):
-`enabled`, `interval_hours`, `min_idle_hours`, `stale_after_days`,
-`archive_after_days`, `backup.*`.
-
-Full user-facing docs: `website/docs/user-guide/features/curator.md`.

----
-
-## Cron (scheduled jobs)
-
-`cron/jobs.py` (job store) + `cron/scheduler.py` (tick loop). Agents
-schedule jobs via the `cronjob` tool; users via `hermes cron <verb>`
-(`list`, `add`, `edit`, `pause`, `resume`, `run`, `remove`) or the
-`/cron` slash command.
-
-Supported schedule formats:
-- Duration: `"30m"`, `"2h"`, `"1d"`
-- "every" phrase: `"every 2h"`, `"every monday 9am"`
-- 5-field cron expression: `"0 9 * * *"`
-- ISO timestamp (one-shot): `"2026-06-01T09:00:00Z"`
-
-Per-job fields include `skills` (load specific skills), `model` /
-`provider` overrides, `script` (pre-run data-collection script whose
-stdout is injected into the prompt; `no_agent=True` turns the script
-into the entire job), `context_from` (chain job A's last output into
-job B's prompt), `workdir` (run in a specific directory with its
-`AGENTS.md`/`CLAUDE.md` loaded), and multi-platform delivery.
-
-Hardening invariants:
-- **3-minute hard interrupt** on cron sessions — runaway agent loops
-  cannot monopolize the scheduler.
-- Catchup window: half the job's period, clamped to 120s–2h.
-- Grace window: 120s for one-shot jobs whose fire time was missed.
-- File lock at `~/.hermes/cron/.tick.lock` prevents duplicate ticks
-  across processes.
-- Cron sessions pass `skip_memory=True` by default; memory providers
-  intentionally do not run during cron.

-## Kanban (multi-agent work queue)
-
-Durable SQLite-backed board that lets multiple profiles / workers
-collaborate on shared tasks. Users drive it via `hermes kanban <verb>`;
-workers spawned by the dispatcher drive it via a dedicated `kanban_*`
-toolset so their schema footprint is zero when they're not inside a
-kanban task.
-
-- **CLI:** `hermes_cli/kanban.py` wires `hermes kanban` with verbs
-  `init`, `create`, `list` (alias `ls`), `show`, `assign`, `link`,
-  `unlink`, `comment`, `complete`, `block`, `unblock`, `archive`,
-  `tail`, plus less-commonly-used `watch`, `stats`, `runs`, `log`,
-  `assignees`, `heartbeat`, `notify-*`, `dispatch`, `daemon`, `gc`.
-- **Worker/orchestrator toolset:** `tools/kanban_tools.py` exposes
-  `kanban_show`, `kanban_complete`, `kanban_block`, `kanban_heartbeat`,
-  `kanban_comment`, `kanban_create`, `kanban_link`; profiles that
-  explicitly enable the `kanban` toolset outside a dispatcher-spawned
-  task also get `kanban_list` and `kanban_unblock` for board routing.
-- **Dispatcher:** long-lived loop that (default every 60s) reclaims
-  stale claims, promotes ready tasks, atomically claims, and spawns
-  assigned profiles. Runs **inside the gateway** by default via
-  `kanban.dispatch_in_gateway: true`.
-- **Plugin assets:** `plugins/kanban/dashboard/` (web UI) +
-  `plugins/kanban/systemd/` (`hermes-kanban-dispatcher.service` for
-  standalone dispatcher deployment).
-
-Isolation model:
-- **Board** is the hard boundary — workers are spawned with
-  `HERMES_KANBAN_BOARD` pinned in their env so they can't see other
-  boards.
-- **Tenant** is a soft namespace *within* a board — one specialist
-  fleet can serve multiple businesses with workspace-path + memory-key
-  isolation.
-- After `kanban.failure_limit` consecutive non-success attempts on the
-  same task (default: 2), the dispatcher auto-blocks it to prevent spin
-  loops.

 ### 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.
 
-### The gateway has TWO message guards — both must bypass approval/control commands
-When an agent is running, messages pass through two sequential guards:
-(1) **base adapter** (`gateway/platforms/base.py`) queues messages in

-(2) **gateway runner** (`gateway/run.py`) intercepts `/stop`, `/new`,
-`/queue`, `/status`, `/approve`, `/deny` before they reach
-`running_agent.interrupt()`. Any new command that must reach the runner
-while the agent is blocked (e.g. approval prompts) MUST bypass BOTH
-guards and be dispatched inline, not via `_process_message_background()`
-(which races session lifecycle).

-### Squash merges from stale branches silently revert recent fixes
-Before squash-merging a PR, ensure the branch is up to date with `main`
-(`git fetch origin main && git reset --hard origin/main` in the worktree,
-then re-apply the PR's commits). A stale branch's version of an unrelated

-### Why the wrapper (and why the old "just call pytest" doesn't work)
-
-Five real sources of local-vs-CI drift the script closes:
-
-| | Without wrapper | With wrapper |
-|---|---|---|
-| Provider API keys | Whatever is in your env (auto-detects pool) | All `*_API_KEY`/`*_TOKEN`/etc. unset |
-| HOME / `~/.hermes/` | Your real config+auth.json | Temp dir per test |
-| Timezone | Local TZ (PDT etc.) | UTC |
-| Locale | Whatever is set | C.UTF-8 |
-| xdist workers | `-n auto` = all cores (20+ on a workstation) | `-n 4` matching CI |
-
-`tests/conftest.py` also enforces points 1-4 as an autouse fixture so ANY pytest
-invocation (including IDE integrations) gets hermetic behavior — but the wrapper
-is belt-and-suspenders.
-
-### Running without the wrapper (only if you must)
-
-If you can't use the wrapper (e.g. on Windows or inside an IDE that shells
-pytest directly), at minimum activate the venv and pass `-n 4`:
-
-```bash
-source .venv/bin/activate   # or: source venv/bin/activate
-python -m pytest tests/ -q -n 4
-```
-
-Worker count above 4 will surface test-ordering flakes that CI never sees.
-
 Always run the full suite before pushing changes.
-
-### Don't write change-detector tests
-
-A test is a **change-detector** if it fails whenever data that is **expected
-to change** gets updated — model catalogs, config version numbers,
-enumeration counts, hardcoded lists of provider models. These tests add no
-behavioral coverage; they just guarantee that routine source updates break
-CI and cost engineering time to "fix."
-
-**Do not write:**
-
-```python
-# catalog snapshot — breaks every model release
-assert "gemini-2.5-pro" in _PROVIDER_MODELS["gemini"]
-assert "MiniMax-M2.7" in models
-
-# config version literal — breaks every schema bump
-assert DEFAULT_CONFIG["_config_version"] == 21
-
-# enumeration count — breaks every time a skill/provider is added
-assert len(_PROVIDER_MODELS["huggingface"]) == 8
-```
-
-**Do write:**
-
-```python
-# behavior: does the catalog plumbing work at all?
-assert "gemini" in _PROVIDER_MODELS
-assert len(_PROVIDER_MODELS["gemini"]) >= 1
-
-# behavior: does migration bump the user's version to current latest?
-assert raw["_config_version"] == DEFAULT_CONFIG["_config_version"]
-
-# invariant: no plan-only model leaks into the legacy list
-assert not (set(moonshot_models) & coding_plan_only_models)
-
-# invariant: every model in the catalog has a context-length entry
-for m in _PROVIDER_MODELS["huggingface"]:
-    assert m.lower() in DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS_LOWER
-```
-
-The rule: if the test reads like a snapshot of current data, delete it. If
-it reads like a contract about how two pieces of data must relate, keep it.
-When a PR adds a new provider/model and you want a test, make the test
-assert the relationship (e.g. "catalog entries all have context lengths"),
-not the specific names.
-
-Reviewers should reject new change-detector tests; authors should convert
-them into invariants before re-requesting review.

-## Memory Providers: Ship as a Standalone Plugin
-
-**We are no longer accepting new memory providers into this repo.** The set of built-in providers under `plugins/memory/` (honcho, mem0, supermemory, byterover, hindsight, holographic, openviking, retaindb) is closed. If you want to add a new memory backend, publish it as a **standalone plugin repo** that users install into `~/.hermes/plugins/` (or via a pip entry point).

-Standalone memory plugins:
-
-- Implement the same `MemoryProvider` ABC (`agent/memory_provider.py`) — `sync_turn`, `prefetch`, `shutdown`, and optionally `post_setup(hermes_home, config)` for setup-wizard integration
-- Use the same discovery system — `discover_memory_providers()` picks them up from user/project plugin directories and pip entry points
-- Integrate with `hermes memory setup` via `post_setup()` — no need to touch core code
-- Can register their own CLI subcommands via `register_cli(subparser)` in a `cli.py` file
-- Get all the same lifecycle hooks and config plumbing as in-tree providers
-
-PRs that add a new directory under `plugins/memory/` will be closed with a pointer to publish the provider as its own repo. Existing in-tree providers stay; bug fixes to them are welcome.
-
-This isn't a quality bar — it's a coupling-and-maintenance decision. Memory providers are the most common plugin type and they shouldn't all live in this tree.

-### Skill authoring standards (HARDLINE)
-
-Every new or modernized skill — bundled, optional, or contributed — must meet these standards before merge. Reviewers reject PRs that violate them.
-
-1. **`description` ≤ 60 characters, one sentence, ends with a period.** Long descriptions bloat the skill listing UI and dilute the model's attention when many skills are loaded. State the capability, not the implementation. No marketing words ("powerful", "comprehensive", "seamless", "advanced"). Don't repeat the skill name. Verify with:
-   ```python
-   import re, pathlib
-   m = re.search(r'^description: (.*)$',
-                 pathlib.Path('skills/<cat>/<name>/SKILL.md').read_text(),
-                 re.MULTILINE)
-   assert len(m.group(1)) <= 60, len(m.group(1))
-   ```
-
-   Good: `Search arXiv papers by keyword, author, category, or ID.`
-   Bad: `A powerful and comprehensive skill that allows the agent to search arXiv for relevant academic papers using various criteria including keywords, authors, and categories.`
-
-2. **Tools referenced in SKILL.md prose must be native Hermes tools or MCP servers the skill explicitly expects.** When the skill needs a capability, point at the proper tool by name in backticks: `` `terminal` ``, `` `web_extract` ``, `` `web_search` ``, `` `read_file` ``, `` `write_file` ``, `` `patch` ``, `` `search_files` ``, `` `vision_analyze` ``, `` `browser_navigate` ``, `` `delegate_task` ``, `` `image_generate` ``, `` `text_to_speech` ``, `` `cronjob` ``, `` `memory` ``, `` `skill_view` ``, `` `todo` ``, `` `execute_code` ``.
-
-   Do NOT name shell utilities the agent already has wrapped:
-
-   | Don't say | Say |
-   |---|---|
-   | `grep`, `rg` | `search_files` |
-   | `cat`, `head`, `tail` | `read_file` |
-   | `sed`, `awk` | `patch` |
-   | `find`, `ls` | `search_files` (with `target='files'`) |
-   | `curl` for content extraction | `web_extract` |
-   | `echo > file`, `cat <<EOF` | `write_file` |
-
-   If the skill depends on an MCP server, name the MCP server and document its setup in `## Prerequisites`. Third-party CLIs (e.g. `ffmpeg`, `gh`, a specific SDK) are fine to invoke from inside script files, but the prose should frame the interaction as "invoke through the `terminal` tool", not as a manual shell session.
-
-3. **`platforms:` gating audited against actual script imports.** Skills that use POSIX-only primitives (`fcntl`, `termios`, `os.setsid`, `os.kill(pid, 0)` for liveness, `/proc`, hardcoded `/tmp` paths, `signal.SIGKILL`, bash heredocs, `osascript`, `apt`, `systemctl`) must declare their supported platforms via the `platforms:` frontmatter. Default posture is to fix it cross-platform first — `tempfile.gettempdir()`, `pathlib.Path`, `psutil.pid_exists()`, Python-level filtering instead of `grep`. Gate to a narrower set only when the dependency is genuinely platform-bound (e.g. `osascript` is macOS-only, `/proc` is Linux-only).
-
-4. **`author` credits the human contributor first.** For external contributions, the contributor's real name + GitHub handle goes first (`Jane Doe (jane-doe)`); "Hermes Agent" is the secondary collaborator. If the contributor's commit shows "Hermes Agent" as author because they used Hermes to draft the skill, replace it with their actual name — credit the human, not the tool.
-
-5. **SKILL.md body uses the modern section order.** `# <Skill> Skill` title, 2-3 sentence intro stating what it does and what it doesn't do, then:
-   - `## When to Use` — trigger conditions
-   - `## Prerequisites` — env vars, install steps, MCP setup, API key sourcing
-   - `## How to Run` — canonical invocation through the `terminal` tool
-   - `## Quick Reference` — flat command/API reference
-   - `## Procedure` — numbered steps with copy-paste commands
-   - `## Pitfalls` — known limits, rate limits, things that look broken but aren't
-   - `## Verification` — single command that proves the skill works
-
-   Target ~200 lines for a complex skill, ~100 lines for a simple one. Cut redundant intro fluff, marketing prose, and re-explanations of env vars already documented in `## Prerequisites`.
-
-6. **Scripts go in `scripts/`, references in `references/`, templates in `templates/`.** Don't expect the model to inline-write parsers, XML walkers, or non-trivial logic every call — ship a helper script. Reference scripts from SKILL.md by path relative to the skill directory.
-
-7. **Tests live at `tests/skills/test_<skill>_skill.py`** and use only stdlib + pytest + `unittest.mock`. No live network calls. Run via `scripts/run_tests.sh tests/skills/test_<skill>_skill.py -q`. Must pass under the hermetic CI env (no API keys leaking through). Use `monkeypatch` and `tmp_path` for any env-var or filesystem dependencies.
-
-8. **`.env.example` additions are isolated to a clearly delimited block.** Don't touch the surrounding file — contributor-supplied `.env.example` versions are usually stale, and edits outside the skill's own block will be dropped during salvage. Comment all values with `#` (it's documentation, not live config).
-
 ### Skill guidelines
 
 - **No external dependencies unless absolutely necessary.** Prefer stdlib Python, curl, and existing Hermes tools (`web_extract`, `terminal`, `read_file`).

 ## Cross-Platform Compatibility

+Hermes runs on Linux, macOS, and 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 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=...)`.

-
-11. **`subprocess.Popen` with `.cmd` or `.bat` shims needs `shutil.which`

-    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.

-### Dependency pinning policy (supply chain hardening)
-
-After the [litellm supply chain compromise](https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm/issues/24512) in March 2026 and the [Mini Shai-Hulud worm campaign](https://socket.dev/blog/tanstack-npm-packages-compromised-mini-shai-hulud-supply-chain-attack) in May 2026, all dependencies must follow these rules:
-
-| Source type | Required treatment | Rationale |
-|---|---|---|
-| **PyPI package** | `>=floor,<next_major` | PyPI versions are immutable once published, but new versions can be pushed into your range. A `<next_major` ceiling stops a 1.x install from upgrading to a malicious 2.0.0. |
-| **Git URL** (atroposlib, tinker, yc-bench, Baileys) | Full commit SHA | Branches and tags are mutable refs; SHA is content-addressed. |
-| **GitHub Actions** | Full commit SHA + version comment | Action tags are mutable refs (e.g. tj-actions/changed-files March 2025). Pin as `uses: owner/action@<sha>  # vX.Y.Z` |
-| **CI-only pip installs** | `==exact` | Hermetic CI builds; churn is acceptable. |
-
-**Every new PyPI dependency in a PR must have a `<next_major` upper bound.** PRs adding unbounded `>=X.Y.Z` specs will be rejected by reviewers. The `supply-chain-audit.yml` CI workflow also flags dependency manifest changes for manual review.
-
-**How to determine the ceiling:**
-- If the package is at version `1.x.y`, use `<2`.
-- If the package is at version `0.x.y` (pre-1.0), use `<0.(current_minor + 2)` — e.g. if current is `0.29.x`, use `<0.32`. This gives ~2 minor versions of headroom while keeping the window small enough that a hostile takeover version is unlikely to land inside it.
-- Exception: packages with very stable APIs (e.g. `aiohttp-socks`) can use `<1` at reviewer discretion.
-
-**Examples:**
-```toml
-# ✅ Correct — post-1.0
-"openai>=2.21.0,<3"
-"pydantic>=2.12.5,<3"
-
-# ✅ Correct — pre-1.0 (tight minor window)
-"asyncpg>=0.29,<0.32"
-"aiosqlite>=0.20,<0.23"
-"hindsight-client>=0.4.22,<0.5"
-
-# ❌ Rejected — no upper bound
-"some-package>=1.2.3"
-
-# ❌ Rejected — too tight (blocks legitimate patches)
-"some-package==1.2.3"
-
-# ❌ Rejected — too loose for pre-1.0 (allows 80 minor versions)
-"some-package>=0.20,<1"
-```
-

 ## Quick Install
 
-### Linux, macOS, WSL2, Termux
-
 ```bash
 curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
 ```
 
-### Windows (native, PowerShell) — Early Beta
-
-> **Heads up:** Native Windows support is **early beta**. It installs and runs, but hasn't been road-tested as broadly as our Linux/macOS/WSL2 paths. Please [file issues](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues) when you hit rough edges. For the most battle-tested Windows setup today, run the Linux/macOS one-liner above inside **WSL2**.
-
-Run this in PowerShell:
-
-```powershell
-iex (irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/main/scripts/install.ps1)
-```
-
-The installer handles everything: uv, Python 3.11, Node.js, ripgrep, ffmpeg, **and a portable Git Bash** (MinGit, unpacked to `%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\git` — no admin required, completely isolated from any system Git install).  Hermes uses this bundled Git Bash to run shell commands.
-
-If you already have Git installed, the installer detects it and uses that instead.  Otherwise a ~45MB MinGit download is all you need — it won't touch or interfere with any system Git.
+Works on Linux, macOS, WSL2, and Android via Termux. The installer handles the platform-specific setup for you.
 
 > **Android / Termux:** The tested manual path is documented in the [Termux guide](https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/docs/getting-started/termux). On Termux, Hermes installs a curated `.[termux]` extra because the full `.[all]` extra currently pulls Android-incompatible voice dependencies.
 >
-> **Windows:** Native Windows is supported as an **early beta** — the PowerShell one-liner above installs everything, but expect rough edges and please file issues when you hit them. If you'd rather use WSL2 (our most battle-tested Windows path), the Linux command works there too. Native Windows install lives under `%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes`; WSL2 installs under `~/.hermes` as on Linux.  The only Hermes feature that currently needs WSL2 specifically is the browser-based dashboard chat pane (it uses a POSIX PTY — classic CLI and gateway both run natively).
+> **Windows:** Native Windows is not supported. Please install [WSL2](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install) and run the command above.

-# Hermes Agent v0.10.0 (v2026.4.16)
-
-**Release Date:** April 16, 2026
-
-> The Tool Gateway release — paid Nous Portal subscribers can now use web search, image generation, text-to-speech, and browser automation through their existing subscription with zero additional API keys.
-
----
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Nous Tool Gateway** — Paid [Nous Portal](https://portal.nousresearch.com) subscribers now get automatic access to **web search** (Firecrawl), **image generation** (FAL / FLUX 2 Pro), **text-to-speech** (OpenAI TTS), and **browser automation** (Browser Use) through their existing subscription. No separate API keys needed — just run `hermes model`, select Nous Portal, and pick which tools to enable. Per-tool opt-in via `use_gateway` config, full integration with `hermes tools` and `hermes status`, and the runtime correctly prefers the gateway even when direct API keys exist. Replaces the old hidden `HERMES_ENABLE_NOUS_MANAGED_TOOLS` env var with clean subscription-based detection. ([#11206](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11206), based on work by @jquesnelle; docs: [#11208](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11208))

-## 🐛 Bug Fixes & Improvements
-
-This release includes 180+ commits with numerous bug fixes, platform improvements, and reliability enhancements across the agent core, gateway, CLI, and tool system. Full details will be published in the v0.11.0 changelog.

-
-**Release Date:** April 23, 2026
-**Since v0.9.0:** 1,556 commits · 761 merged PRs · 1,314 files changed · 224,174 insertions · 29 community contributors (290 including co-authors)
-
-> The Interface release — a full React/Ink rewrite of the interactive CLI, a pluggable transport architecture underneath every provider, native AWS Bedrock support, five new inference paths, a 17th messaging platform (QQBot), a dramatically expanded plugin surface, and GPT-5.5 via Codex OAuth.
-
-This release also folds in all the highlights deferred from v0.10.0 (which shipped only the Nous Tool Gateway) — so it covers roughly two weeks of work across the whole stack.
-
----
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **New Ink-based TUI** — `hermes --tui` is now a full React/Ink rewrite of the interactive CLI, with a Python JSON-RPC backend (`tui_gateway`). Sticky composer, live streaming with OSC-52 clipboard support, stable picker keys, status bar with per-turn stopwatch and git branch, `/clear` confirm, light-theme preset, and a subagent spawn observability overlay. ~310 commits to `ui-tui/` + `tui_gateway/`. (@OutThisLife + Teknium)
-
-- **Transport ABC + Native AWS Bedrock** — Format conversion and HTTP transport were extracted from `run_agent.py` into a pluggable `agent/transports/` layer. `AnthropicTransport`, `ChatCompletionsTransport`, `ResponsesApiTransport`, and `BedrockTransport` each own their own format conversion and API shape. Native AWS Bedrock support via the Converse API ships on top of the new abstraction. ([#10549](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10549), [#13347](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13347), [#13366](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13366), [#13430](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13430), [#13805](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13805), [#13814](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13814) — @kshitijk4poor + Teknium)
-
-- **Five new inference paths** — Native NVIDIA NIM ([#11774](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11774)), Arcee AI ([#9276](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9276)), Step Plan ([#13893](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13893)), Google Gemini CLI OAuth ([#11270](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11270)), and Vercel ai-gateway with pricing + dynamic discovery ([#13223](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13223) — @jerilynzheng). Plus Gemini routed through the native AI Studio API for better performance ([#12674](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12674)).
-
-- **GPT-5.5 over Codex OAuth** — OpenAI's new GPT-5.5 reasoning model is now available through your ChatGPT Codex OAuth, with live model discovery wired into the model picker so new OpenAI releases show up without catalog updates. ([#14720](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14720))
-
-- **QQBot — 17th supported platform** — Native QQBot adapter via QQ Official API v2, with QR scan-to-configure setup wizard, streaming cursor, emoji reactions, and DM/group policy gating that matches WeCom/Weixin parity. ([#9364](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9364), [#11831](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11831))
-
-- **Plugin surface expanded** — Plugins can now register slash commands (`register_command`), dispatch tools directly (`dispatch_tool`), block tool execution from hooks (`pre_tool_call` can veto), rewrite tool results (`transform_tool_result`), transform terminal output (`transform_terminal_output`), ship image_gen backends, and add custom dashboard tabs. The bundled disk-cleanup plugin is opt-in by default as a reference implementation. ([#9377](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9377), [#10626](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10626), [#10763](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10763), [#10951](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10951), [#12929](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12929), [#12944](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12944), [#12972](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12972), [#13799](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13799), [#14175](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14175))
-
-- **`/steer` — mid-run agent nudges** — `/steer <prompt>` injects a note that the running agent sees after its next tool call, without interrupting the turn or breaking prompt cache. For when you want to course-correct an agent in-flight. ([#12116](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12116))
-
-- **Shell hooks** — Wire any shell script as a Hermes lifecycle hook (pre_tool_call, post_tool_call, on_session_start, etc.) without writing a Python plugin. ([#13296](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13296))
-
-- **Webhook direct-delivery mode** — Webhook subscriptions can now forward payloads straight to a platform chat without going through the agent — zero-LLM push notifications for alerting, uptime checks, and event streams. ([#12473](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12473))
-
-- **Smarter delegation** — Subagents now have an explicit `orchestrator` role that can spawn their own workers, with configurable `max_spawn_depth` (default flat). Concurrent sibling subagents share filesystem state through a file-coordination layer so they don't clobber each other's edits. ([#13691](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13691), [#13718](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13718))
-
-- **Auxiliary models — configurable UI + main-model-first** — `hermes model` has a dedicated "Configure auxiliary models" screen for per-task overrides (compression, vision, session_search, title_generation). `auto` routing now defaults to the main model for side tasks across all users (previously aggregator users were silently routed to a cheap provider-side default). ([#11891](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11891), [#11900](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11900))
-
-- **Dashboard plugin system + live theme switching** — The web dashboard is now extensible. Third-party plugins can add custom tabs, widgets, and views without forking. Paired with a live-switching theme system — themes now control colors, fonts, layout, and density — so users can hot-swap the dashboard look without a reload. Same theming discipline the CLI has, now on the web. ([#10951](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10951), [#10687](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10687), [#14725](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14725))
-
-- **Dashboard polish** — i18n (English + Chinese), react-router sidebar layout, mobile-responsive, Vercel deployment, real per-session API call tracking, and one-click update + gateway restart buttons. ([#9228](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9228), [#9370](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9370), [#9453](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9453), [#10686](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10686), [#13526](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13526), [#14004](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14004) — @austinpickett + @DeployFaith + Teknium)

-> The Curator release — Hermes Agent now maintains itself. An autonomous background Curator grades, prunes, and consolidates your skill library on its own schedule. The self-improvement loop that reviews what to save got a substantial upgrade. Four new inference providers, a 18th messaging platform, a 19th via Teams plugin, native Spotify + Google Meet integrations, ComfyUI and TouchDesigner-MCP moved from optional to bundled-by-default, and a ~57% cut to visible TUI cold start.

-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Autonomous Curator** — `hermes curator` runs as a background agent on the gateway's cron ticker (7-day cycle default). It grades your skill library, consolidates related skills, prunes dead ones, and writes per-run reports to `logs/curator/run.json` + `REPORT.md`. Archived skills are classified consolidated-vs-pruned via model + heuristic. Defense-in-depth gates protect bundled/hub skills from mutation. Unified under `auxiliary.curator` — pick the curator's model in `hermes model`, manage it from the dashboard. `hermes curator status` ranks skills by usage (most-used / least-used). ([#17277](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17277), [#17307](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17307), [#17941](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17941), [#17868](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17868), [#18033](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18033))
-
-- **Self-improvement loop — substantially upgraded** — The background review fork (the core of Hermes' self-improvement: after each turn it decides what memories/skills to save or update) is now class-first (rubric-based rather than free-form), active-update biased (prefers the skill the agent just loaded), handles `references/`/`templates/` sub-files, and properly inherits the parent's live runtime (provider, model, credentials actually propagate). Restricted to memory + skills toolsets so it can't sprawl. Memory providers shut down cleanly. Prior-turn tool messages excluded from the summary so the fork sees a clean context. ([#16026](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16026), [#17213](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17213), [#16099](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16099), [#16569](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16569), [#16204](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16204), [#15057](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15057))

-- **Skill integrations — major expansion** — **ComfyUI v5** with official CLI + REST + hardware-gated local install, moved from optional to **built-in by default** ([#17610](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17610), [#17631](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17631), [#17734](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17734)). **TouchDesigner-MCP** bundled by default, expanded with GLSL, post-FX, audio, geometry, and 9 new reference docs ([#16753](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16753), [#16624](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16624), [#16768](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16768) — @kshitijk4poor + @SHL0MS). **Humanizer** skill ports a text-cleaner that strips AI-isms ([#16787](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16787)). **claude-design** HTML artifact skill + design-md (Google DESIGN.md spec) + airtable salvage + `skill_manage` edits in `external_dirs` + direct-URL skill install + `/reload-skills` slash command. ([#16358](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16358), [#14876](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14876), [#16291](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16291), [#17512](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17512), [#16323](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16323), [#17744](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17744))
-
-- **LM Studio — first-class provider** — upgraded from a custom-endpoint alias to a full-blown native provider: dedicated auth, `hermes doctor` checks, reasoning transport, live `/models` listing. (Salvage of @kshitijk4poor's #17061.) ([#17102](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17102))
-
-- **Four more new inference providers** — **GMI Cloud** (first-class, salvage of #11955 — @isaachuangGMICLOUD), **Azure AI Foundry** with auto-detection, **MiniMax OAuth** with PKCE browser flow (salvage #15203), **Tencent Tokenhub** (salvage of #16860).

-
-- **`hermes -z` one-shot mode + `hermes update --check`** — non-interactive `hermes -z <prompt>` with `--model`/`--provider`/`HERMES_INFERENCE_MODEL`. `hermes update --check` preflight. Opt-in pre-update HERMES_HOME backup. ([#15702](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15702), [#15704](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15704), [#15841](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15841), [#16539](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16539), [#16566](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16566))
-

-
-- **Remote model catalog manifest** — OpenRouter + Nous Portal model catalogs are now pulled from a remote manifest so new models show up without a release. ([#16033](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16033))
-
-- **Native multimodal image routing** — images now route based on the model's actual vision capability rather than provider defaults. ([#16506](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16506))
-
-- **Gateway media parity** — native multi-image sending across Telegram, Discord, Slack, Mattermost, Email, and Signal; centralized audio routing with FLAC support + Telegram document fallback. ([#17909](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17909), [#17833](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17833))
-
-- **TUI catches up to (and past) the classic CLI** — LaTeX rendering (@austinpickett), `/reload` .env hot-reload, pluggable busy-indicator styles (@OutThisLife, #13610), opt-in auto-resume of last session, expanded light-terminal auto-detection, session delete from `/resume` picker with `d`, modified mouse-wheel line scroll, and a `/mouse` toggle that kills ConPTY's phantom mouse injection (@kevin-ho). ([#17175](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17175), [#17286](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17286), [#17150](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17150), [#17130](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17130), [#17113](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17113), [#17668](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17668), [#17669](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17669), [#15488](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15488))

-
-- **Vercel Sandbox backend** — Vercel sandboxes as an execute_code/terminal backend (@kshitijk4poor). ([#17445](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17445))
-
-- **Secret redaction off by default** — default flipped to off. Prevents the long-standing patch-corruption incidents where fake secret-shaped substrings mangled tool outputs. Opt in via `redaction.enabled: true` when you need it. ([#16794](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16794))
-
-- **Cold-start performance** — visible TUI cold start cut **~57%** via lazy agent init (@OutThisLife), lazy imports of OpenAI / Anthropic / Firecrawl / account_usage, mtime-cached `load_config()`, memoized `get_tool_definitions()` with TTL-cached `check_fn` results, precompiled dangerous-command patterns. ([#17190](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17190), [#17046](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17046), [#17041](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17041), [#17098](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17098), [#17206](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17206))
-
-- **Configurable prompt cache TTL** — `prompt_caching.cache_ttl` (5m default, 1h opt-in — cost savings for bursty sessions that keep cache warm). Salvage of #12659. ([#15065](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15065))

-## 🧠 Autonomous Curator & Self-Improvement Loop
-
-### Curator — autonomous skill maintenance
-- **`hermes curator` as a background agent** — runs on the gateway's cron ticker, 7-day cycle by default, umbrella-first prompt, inherits parent config, unbounded iterations ([#17277](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17277) — issue #7816)
-- **Per-run reports** — `logs/curator/run.json` + `REPORT.md` per cycle ([#17307](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17307))
-- **Consolidated vs pruned classification** — archived skills split with model + heuristic ([#17941](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17941))
-- **`hermes curator status`** — ranks skills by usage, shows most-used and least-used ([#18033](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18033))
-- **Unified under `auxiliary.curator`** — pick the model in `hermes model`, configure from the dashboard ([#17868](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17868))

-> The Tenacity Release — Hermes Agent now finishes what it starts. Kanban ships as a durable multi-agent board (heartbeat, reclaim, zombie detection, auto-block on incomplete exit, per-task retries, hallucination recovery). `/goal` keeps the agent locked on a target across turns (Ralph loop). Checkpoints v2 rewrites state persistence with real pruning. Gateway auto-resumes interrupted sessions after restart. Cron grows a `no_agent` watchdog mode. A security wave closes 8 P0s — redaction is now ON by default, Discord role-allowlists are guild-scoped, WhatsApp rejects strangers by default, and TOCTOU windows close across auth.json and MCP OAuth. Google Chat becomes the 20th platform. Providers become a pluggable surface. Seven i18n locales ship.

-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Multi-agent Kanban — delegate to an AI team that actually finishes** — Spin up a durable board, drop tasks on it, and let multiple Hermes workers pick them up, hand off, and close them out. Heartbeats, reclaim, zombie detection, retry budgets, and a hallucination gate keep the team honest. One install, many kanbans. ([#17805](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17805), [#19653](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/19653), [#20232](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20232), [#20332](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20332), [#21330](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21330), [#21183](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21183), [#21214](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21214))
-
-- **`/goal` — the agent doesn't forget what you asked it to do** — Lock the agent onto a target and it stays on task across turns. The Ralph loop as a first-class primitive. ([#18262](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18262), [#18275](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18275), [#21287](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21287))
-
-- **Show it a video** — new `video_analyze` tool for native video understanding on Gemini and compatible multimodal models. (@alt-glitch) ([#19301](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/19301))
-
-- **Clone a voice** — xAI Custom Voices lands as a TTS provider with voice cloning support. (@alt-glitch) ([#18776](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18776))
-
-- **Hermes speaks your language** — static gateway + CLI messages translate to 7 locales: Chinese, Japanese, German, Spanish, French, Ukrainian, and Turkish. Docs site gains a Chinese (zh-Hans) locale. ([#20231](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20231), [#20329](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20329), [#20467](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20467), [#20474](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20474), [#20430](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20430), [#20431](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20431))
-
-- **Google Chat — the 20th messaging platform** — plus a generic platform-plugin hooks surface so third-party adapters drop in without touching core (IRC and Teams migrated).

-- **Sessions survive restarts** — gateway bounces mid-agent, `/update` restarts, source-file reloads — conversations auto-resume when the gateway comes back. ([#21192](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21192))
-
-- **Security wave — 8 P0 closures** — redaction ON by default, Discord role-allowlists guild-scoped (CVSS 8.1 cross-guild DM bypass closed), WhatsApp rejects strangers by default, TOCTOU windows closed across `auth.json` and MCP OAuth, browser enforces cloud-metadata SSRF floor, cron prompt-injection scans assembled skill content, `hermes debug share` redacts at upload. ([#21193](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21193), [#21241](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21241), [#21291](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21291), [#21176](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21176), [#21194](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21194), [#21228](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21228), [#21350](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21350), [#19318](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/19318))
-
-- **Checkpoints v2** — state persistence rewritten. Real pruning, disk guardrails, no more orphan shadow repos. ([#20709](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20709))
-
-- **The agent lints its own writes** — post-write delta lint on `write_file` + `patch`. Python, JSON, YAML, TOML. Syntax errors surface immediately instead of shipping downstream. ([#20191](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20191))
-
-- **`no_agent` cron mode — script-only watchdog** — cron jobs can now skip the agent entirely and just run a script. Empty stdout is silent, non-empty gets delivered verbatim. ([#19709](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/19709))
-
-- **Platform allowlists everywhere** — `allowed_channels` / `allowed_chats` / `allowed_rooms` config across Slack, Telegram, Mattermost, Matrix, and DingTalk. ([#21251](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21251))
-
-- **Providers are now plugins** — `ProviderProfile` ABC + `plugins/model-providers/`. Drop in third-party providers without touching core. ([#20324](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20324))
-
-- **API server — long-term memory per session** — `X-Hermes-Session-Key` header gives memory providers a stable session identifier. ([#20199](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20199))
-
-- **MCP levels up** — SSE transport with OAuth forwarding, stale-pipe retries, image results surface as MEDIA tags instead of getting dropped, keepalive on long-lived lifecycle waits. ([#21227](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21227), [#21323](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21323), [#21289](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21289), [#21328](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21328), [#20209](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20209))
-
-- **Curator grows subcommands** — `hermes curator archive`, `prune`, `list-archived`. Manual `hermes curator run` is synchronous now — you see results without polling. ([#20200](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20200), [#21236](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21236), [#21216](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21216))

-
-- **Dashboard grows up** — Plugins page (manage, enable/disable, auth status) (@austinpickett), Profiles management page (@vincez-hms-coder), sortable analytics tables, reverse-proxy support via `X-Forwarded-Prefix`, new `default-large` 18px theme. ([#18095](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18095), [#16419](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16419), [#18192](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18192), [#21296](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21296), [#20820](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20820))

-- **SearXNG + split web tools** — SearXNG ships as a native search-only backend; web tools now let you pick different backends per capability (search vs extract vs browse). (@kshitijk4poor) ([#20823](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20823), [#20061](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20061), [#20841](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20841))

-- **OpenRouter response caching** — explicit cache control for models that expose it. (@kshitijk4poor) ([#19132](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/19132))
-
-- **`[[as_document]]` — skill media-routing directive** — skills can force the gateway to deliver output as a document on platforms that support it. ([#21210](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21210))
-
-- **`transform_llm_output` plugin hook** — new lifecycle hook that lets plugins reshape or filter LLM output before it hits the conversation. Useful for context-window reducers and content filters. ([#21235](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21235))
-
-- **Nous OAuth persists across profiles** — shared token store: sign in once, every profile inherits the session. ([#19712](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/19712))
-
-- **QQBot — native approval keyboards** — feature parity with Telegram / Discord approval UX. Chunked upload, quoted attachments. ([#21342](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21342), [#21353](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21353))
-

-> The Foundation Release — Hermes installs and runs anywhere, ships with the things you actually want to use, and stops shipping the things you don't. xAI Grok lands as a SuperGrok OAuth provider with grok-4.3 bumped to a 1M context window. A new OpenAI-compatible local proxy turns any OAuth-authed Hermes provider — Claude Pro, ChatGPT Pro, SuperGrok — into an endpoint that Codex / Aider / Cline / Continue can hit. `x_search` lands as a first-class X (Twitter) search tool with OAuth-or-API-key auth. The Microsoft Teams stack is wired end-to-end (Graph auth + webhook listener + pipeline runtime + outbound delivery). A debloating wave makes installs dramatically lighter — heavyweight backends now lazy-install on first use, the `[all]` extras drop everything covered by lazy-deps, and a tiered install falls back when a wheel rejects on your platform. `pip install hermes-agent` works from PyPI. The cold-start wave shaves ~19 seconds off `hermes` launch. Browser CDP calls are 180x faster. Two new messaging platforms (LINE + SimpleX Chat) bring the total to 22. Cross-session 1-hour Claude prompt caching, `/handoff` that actually transfers sessions live, native button UI for `clarify` on Telegram and Discord, Discord channel history backfill, LSP semantic diagnostics on every write, a unified pluggable `video_generate`, a `computer_use` cua-driver backend that finally works with non-Anthropic providers, clickable URLs in any terminal, Zed ACP Registry integration via `uvx`, native Windows beta, 9 new optional skills, OpenRouter Pareto Code router, huggingface/skills as a trusted default tap. 12 P0 + 50 P1 closures.

-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **xAI Grok via SuperGrok OAuth — and grok-4.3 jumps to a 1M context window** — If you pay for SuperGrok, you can now use Grok inside Hermes by signing in with your xAI account — no API key, no separate billing. The wire-through also bumps grok-4.3 to a 1M token context window, so you can drop whole codebases or research corpora into a single prompt. Includes proper handling for entitlement errors and an SSH-to-tunnel docs page for when you're SSH'd into a remote box and need to complete the OAuth flow. ([#26534](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26534), [#26664](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26664), [#26644](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26644), [#26592](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26592))
-
-- **OpenAI-compatible local proxy for OAuth providers** — Run `hermes proxy` and you get a `http://localhost:port` endpoint that speaks the OpenAI API but is backed by whichever OAuth provider you're signed into — Claude Pro, ChatGPT Pro, SuperGrok. Now any tool that expects an OpenAI-compatible endpoint (Codex CLI, Aider, Cline, Continue, your custom scripts) just works with your existing subscription, no API key required. One subscription, every tool. ([#25969](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25969))
-
-- **`x_search` — first-class X (Twitter) search tool** — The agent can now search X directly without installing a skill or wiring up a custom integration. Search the timeline, find threads, surface specific posts — straight from the chat. Auth with either your X OAuth login or an API key, whichever you have. ([#26763](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26763))
-
-- **Microsoft Teams — end-to-end** — Hermes can now read messages from Teams and post back. The full Microsoft Graph stack lands together: auth + client foundation, a webhook listener that receives Teams events, a pipeline plugin runtime, and outbound delivery. Wire up the bot once, then chat to your agent from any Teams channel, DM, or group. (salvages of #21408–#21411) ([#21922](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21922), [#21969](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21969), [#22007](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22007), [#22024](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22024))
-
-- **Debloating wave — lighter installs, less you don't use** — A clean `pip install hermes-agent` used to pull down everything: every messaging adapter SDK, every image-gen SDK, every voice/TTS provider, whether you used them or not. Now those heavy backends (Slack / Matrix / Feishu / DingTalk adapters, hindsight client, codex app-server, Pixverse / Camofox / image-gen SDKs, voice/TTS providers) install automatically the first time you actually use them. The `[all]` extras drop everything covered by lazy-deps, the installer falls back through tiers when a wheel doesn't fit your platform, and a supply-chain advisory checker scans every install for unsafe versions. Faster installs, smaller disk footprint, fewer transitive vulnerabilities. ([#24220](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24220), [#24515](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24515), [#25014](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25014), [#25038](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25038), [#25766](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25766), [#21818](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21818))
-
-- **`pip install hermes-agent && hermes`** — Hermes Agent is now a real PyPI package. No more cloning the repo or running shell installers — one pip command and you're running. The wheel ships with the Ink TUI bundle and the shell launcher, so the full experience comes out of the box. (salvage of [#26350](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26350)) ([#26593](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26593), [#26148](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26148))
-
-- **Cross-session 1h Claude prompt cache** — When you use Claude through Anthropic, OpenRouter, or Nous Portal, the prompt prefix (system prompt, skills, memory) now caches for an hour across sessions. Start a `/new` session and the first response comes back faster and cheaper because the cache is still warm from your last session. Background memory review hits the cache too, so it's not paying full price every turn. ([#23828](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23828), [#25434](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25434), [#24778](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24778))
-
-- **180x faster `browser_console` evaluations** — When the agent uses the browser tool to inspect a page or run JavaScript, those calls now share one persistent connection to Chrome instead of spinning up a new DevTools session every time. The difference is huge: things that used to take a couple of seconds per call return in milliseconds. Real-world page interactions feel instant. ([#23226](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23226))
-
-- **Cold-start performance wave — ~19 seconds off `hermes` launch** — Running `hermes` used to make you wait through a chunk of import overhead and network calls before you saw a prompt. Now the launch path is mostly deferred: heavy adapters only load when you use them, model catalogs come from disk cache first, doctor checks run in parallel, and `chat -q` skips the welcome banner entirely. The `hermes tools` All-Platforms screen alone dropped from 14 seconds to under 1.5 seconds. ([#22138](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22138), [#22120](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22120), [#22681](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22681), [#22790](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22790), [#22808](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22808), [#22831](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22831), [#22859](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22859), [#22904](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22904), [#22766](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22766), [#25341](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25341))
-
-- **Two new messaging platforms — LINE + SimpleX Chat** — LINE is huge in Japan, Korea, and Taiwan, and now Hermes runs natively on the LINE Messaging API. SimpleX Chat is the privacy-focused decentralized messenger with no user IDs — also wired up as a first-class platform. That brings Hermes to 22 messaging platforms total, so wherever you and your team chat, the agent can be there. ([#23197](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23197), [#26232](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26232))
-
-- **`/handoff` actually transfers the session live** — Switching models or personalities mid-conversation used to mean losing context or starting over. Now `/handoff` moves your active session — every message, every tool call, every piece of context — to the target model, persona, or profile, live, without dropping anything. Mid-debugging hand off from a fast model to a deep-reasoning one, or pass a session between profiles for different parts of a task. ([#23395](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23395))
-
-- **Native button UI for `clarify` on Telegram and Discord** — When the agent uses the `clarify` tool to ask you a multiple-choice question, it now shows real platform-native buttons on Telegram and Discord instead of asking you to type back the option number. Tap the button, the agent gets your answer. Especially nice on mobile. ([#24199](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24199), [#25485](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25485))
-
-- **Discord channel history backfill (default on)** — When Hermes joins a Discord channel or thread for the first time, it now reads the recent message history so it knows what's been said before it responds. No more "what are we talking about?" — the agent has the context that's already on screen for everyone else. ([#25984](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25984))
-
-- **`vision_analyze` returns pixels to vision-capable models** — When you point the agent at an image with `vision_analyze` and the active model can actually see (GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok-vision), Hermes now passes the raw pixels straight to the model instead of converting them to a text description first. You get the model's actual visual reasoning instead of a degraded text-summary round-trip. ([#22955](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22955))
-
-- **Per-turn file-mutation verifier footer** — After every turn that wrote or edited files, the agent now gets a short footer summarizing exactly what changed on disk — the file paths, the line counts, the actual delta. That means the agent catches its own mistakes when a write didn't land or got silently overwritten, instead of confidently telling you "I added the function" when the file wasn't actually saved. ([#24498](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24498))
-
-- **LSP semantic diagnostics on every write** — When the agent uses `write_file` or `patch`, Hermes now runs a real language server against the edited file and surfaces any new errors back to the agent before the next turn. Type errors, undefined symbols, missing imports — caught immediately. Goes way beyond v0.13.0's basic Python/JSON/YAML/TOML linting because it's actual semantic analysis. ([#24168](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24168), [#25978](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25978))
-
-- **Unified `video_generate` with pluggable provider backends** — One tool, any video model. Hermes ships with the obvious backends already, but you can drop in a new video provider as a plugin without touching core. So when a new video model lands next month, it can be a one-file plugin instead of a fork. ([#25126](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25126))
-
-- **`computer_use` cua-driver backend — works with non-Anthropic models now** — Computer-use (the agent controlling your mouse and keyboard to drive GUI apps) used to be locked to Anthropic's SDK. The new cua-driver backend works with non-Anthropic providers too, has proper focus-safe operations, and refreshes itself on `hermes update`. Now any vision-capable model can drive your desktop. (re-salvage of #16936) ([#21967](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21967), [#24063](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24063))
-
-- **Clickable URLs in any terminal** — Links in agent output are now real OSC8 hyperlinks with hover-highlight in any terminal that supports them. Click to open in your browser — no more copy-paste-trim of long URLs from the transcript. Just works in iTerm2, Kitty, Ghostty, modern Windows Terminal, etc. (@OutThisLife) ([#25071](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25071), [#24013](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24013))
-
-- **Zed ACP Registry — `uvx` install in one click** — Hermes is now listed in Zed's Agent Client Protocol registry, so Zed users can install it with one click. The install path uses `uvx` so there's no npm dependency. `hermes acp --setup-browser` bootstraps the browser tools for registry-driven installs. (salvage of [#25908](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25908)) ([#26079](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26079), [#26120](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26120), [#26234](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26234))
-
-- **OpenRouter Pareto Code router with `min_coding_score` knob** — OpenRouter's "Pareto" router automatically picks the cheapest model that meets a minimum quality bar. The new `min_coding_score` config lets you set that bar for coding tasks specifically — Hermes routes to the most affordable model that's at least that good at code. Stop paying for top-tier models when a mid-tier one would do. ([#22838](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/22838))
-
-- **NovitaAI as a new model provider** — NovitaAI joins the provider lineup, giving you another option for open-source model hosting (Llama, Qwen, DeepSeek, etc.) with their pricing and rate limits. (salvage #7219) (@kshitijk4poor) ([#25507](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25507))
-
-- **Codex app-server runtime for OpenAI/Codex models** — An optional runtime that drives OpenAI's Codex CLI under the hood when you're using OpenAI or Codex paths. You get session reuse, automatic retirement of wedged sessions, and proper OAuth refresh classification — the kind of plumbing that makes long agentic runs not fall over. ([#24182](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24182), [#25769](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25769))
-
-- **`huggingface/skills` as a trusted default tap** — The community skills index hosted at huggingface.co/skills is now wired into the Skills Hub by default. So when somebody publishes a useful skill there, you can install it from your own `hermes skills` browser without any extra config. (closes #2549) ([#26219](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26219))
-
-- **9 new optional skills** — Hyperliquid (perp + spot trading via the SDK and REST API), Yahoo Finance (live market data, fundamentals, historicals), api-testing (REST + GraphQL debug recipes), unified EVM multi-chain (one skill covers Ethereum + L2s + Base), darwinian-evolver (evolutionary prompt/skill tuning), osint-investigation (OSINT recipes for people / domains / orgs), pinggy-tunnel (expose local services to the public internet), watchers (polls RSS / HTTP JSON / GitHub via cron `no_agent` mode for change detection), and a full Notion overhaul for the May 2026 Developer Platform. ([#23582](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23582), [#23583](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23583), [#23590](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23590), [#25299](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25299), [#26760](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26760), [#26729](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26729), [#26765](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26765), [#21881](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21881), [#26612](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26612))
-
-- **API server exposes run approval events** — If you're driving Hermes programmatically through the HTTP API, long-running runs no longer silently hang when the agent hits an approval-required command. The approval request now surfaces on the API stream so your client can prompt the user and reply — no more silent stalls. (salvage of [#20311](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/20311)) ([#21899](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21899))
-
-- **Plugins can run any LLM call via `ctx.llm` + replace built-in tools via `tool_override`** — If you're writing a Hermes plugin, you now get first-class access to make LLM calls through the active provider and credentials — no manual client wiring. The new `tool_override` flag lets a plugin swap out a built-in tool with its own implementation cleanly. Plugin authors get the same model-routing and auth plumbing the core agent uses. (closes #11049) ([#23194](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23194), [#26759](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26759))
-
-- **Brave Search (free tier) + DuckDuckGo (DDGS) as web-search providers** — Two new free web-search backends join Tavily, SearXNG, and Exa. Brave Search has a generous free tier; DDGS is the DuckDuckGo scraper that needs no key at all. Pick whichever fits your budget and rate-limit needs. ([#21337](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21337))
-
-- **Sudo brute-force block + 3 dangerous-command bypasses closed + tool-error sanitization** — The approval gate now blocks `sudo -S` brute-force attempts and classifies stdin-fed or askpass-stripped sudo invocations as DANGEROUS. Three known bypasses of dangerous-command detection are closed (inspired by Claude Code's command-detection work). And tool error strings are now sanitized before being re-injected into the model context, so a malicious file or remote service can't pass instructions to your agent through error output. ([#23736](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/23736), [#26829](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26829), [#26823](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/26823))
-
-- **`/subgoal` — user-added criteria appended to an active `/goal`** — When you've got a `/goal` running (the persistent Ralph-loop goal where the agent keeps going until criteria are met), you can now use `/subgoal <text>` to layer extra success criteria onto it mid-run. The judge factors your new criteria into the done-or-keep-going decision without restarting the loop. ([#25449](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/25449))
-
-- **Provider rename — Alibaba Cloud → Qwen Cloud** — The Alibaba Cloud provider is renamed to Qwen Cloud in the picker and config to match what the rest of the world calls it. Existing config keys still work — no breaking changes — but the UI matches the actual brand now. ([#24835](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/24835))
-
-- **Native Windows support (early beta)** — Hermes now runs natively on `cmd.exe` and PowerShell without WSL. A full PowerShell installer handles MinGit auto-install, Microsoft Store python stub detection, and the foreground Ctrl+C dance. There's still rough edges (this is the "early beta" stamp) — ~40 follow-up Windows-only fixes already landed in the window — but the basic loop works end-to-end on a clean Windows box. ([#21561](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/21561))

-> The everywhere release — Hermes goes mobile with Termux/Android, adds iMessage and WeChat, ships Fast Mode for OpenAI and Anthropic, introduces background process monitoring, launches a local web dashboard for managing your agent, and delivers the deepest security hardening pass yet across 16 supported platforms.
-
----
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Local Web Dashboard** — A new browser-based dashboard for managing your Hermes Agent locally. Configure settings, monitor sessions, browse skills, and manage your gateway — all from a clean web interface without touching config files or the terminal. The easiest way to get started with Hermes.
-
-- **Fast Mode (`/fast`)** — Priority processing for OpenAI and Anthropic models. Toggle `/fast` to route through priority queues for significantly lower latency on supported models (GPT-5.4, Codex, Claude). Expands across all OpenAI Priority Processing models and Anthropic's fast tier. ([#6875](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6875), [#6960](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6960), [#7037](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7037))
-
-- **iMessage via BlueBubbles** — Full iMessage integration through BlueBubbles, bringing Hermes to Apple's messaging ecosystem. Auto-webhook registration, setup wizard integration, and crash resilience. ([#6437](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6437), [#6460](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6460), [#6494](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6494))
-
-- **WeChat (Weixin) & WeCom Callback Mode** — Native WeChat support via iLink Bot API and a new WeCom callback-mode adapter for self-built enterprise apps. Streaming cursor, media uploads, markdown link handling, and atomic state persistence. Hermes now covers the Chinese messaging ecosystem end-to-end. ([#7166](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7166), [#7943](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7943))
-
-- **Termux / Android Support** — Run Hermes natively on Android via Termux. Adapted install paths, TUI optimizations for mobile screens, voice backend support, and the `/image` command work on-device. ([#6834](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6834))
-
-- **Background Process Monitoring (`watch_patterns`)** — Set patterns to watch for in background process output and get notified in real-time when they match. Monitor for errors, wait for specific events ("listening on port"), or watch build logs — all without polling. ([#7635](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7635))
-
-- **Native xAI & Xiaomi MiMo Providers** — First-class provider support for xAI (Grok) and Xiaomi MiMo, with direct API access, model catalogs, and setup wizard integration. Plus Qwen OAuth with portal request support. ([#7372](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7372), [#7855](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7855))
-
-- **Pluggable Context Engine** — Context management is now a pluggable slot via `hermes plugins`. Swap in custom context engines that control what the agent sees each turn — filtering, summarization, or domain-specific context injection. ([#7464](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7464))
-
-- **Unified Proxy Support** — SOCKS proxy, `DISCORD_PROXY`, and system proxy auto-detection across all gateway platforms. Hermes behind corporate firewalls just works. ([#6814](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6814))
-
-- **Comprehensive Security Hardening** — Path traversal protection in checkpoint manager, shell injection neutralization in sandbox writes, SSRF redirect guards in Slack image uploads, Twilio webhook signature validation (SMS RCE fix), API server auth enforcement, git argument injection prevention, and approval button authorization. ([#7933](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7933), [#7944](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7944), [#7940](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7940), [#7151](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7151), [#7156](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7156))
-
-- **`hermes backup` & `hermes import`** — Full backup and restore of your Hermes configuration, sessions, skills, and memory. Migrate between machines or create snapshots before major changes. ([#7997](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/7997))
-
-- **16 Supported Platforms** — With BlueBubbles (iMessage) and WeChat joining Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp, Signal, Matrix, Email, SMS, DingTalk, Feishu, WeCom, Mattermost, Home Assistant, and Webhooks, Hermes now runs on 16 messaging platforms out of the box.
-
-- **`/debug` & `hermes debug share`** — New debugging toolkit: `/debug` slash command across all platforms for quick diagnostics, plus `hermes debug share` to upload a full debug report to a pastebin for easy sharing when troubleshooting. ([#8681](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/8681))

-# Hermes Agent Security Policy
-
-This document describes Hermes Agent's trust model, names the one
-security boundary the project treats as load-bearing, and defines the
-scope for vulnerability reports.
-
-## 1. Reporting a Vulnerability
-
-Report privately via [GitHub Security Advisories](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/security/advisories/new)
-or **security@nousresearch.com**. Do not open public issues for
-security vulnerabilities. **Hermes Agent does not operate a bug
-bounty program.**
-
-A useful report includes:
-
-- A concise description and severity assessment.
-- The affected component, identified by file path and line range
-  (e.g. `path/to/file.py:120-145`).
-- Environment details (`hermes version`, commit SHA, OS, Python
-  version).
-- A reproduction against `main` or the latest release.
-- A statement of which trust boundary in §2 is crossed.
-
-Please read §2 and §3 before submitting. Reports that demonstrate
-limits of an in-process heuristic this policy does not treat as a
-boundary will be closed as out-of-scope under §3 — but see §3.2:
-they are still welcome as regular issues or pull requests, just not
-through the private security channel.
-
----
-
-## 2. Trust Model
-
-Hermes Agent is a single-tenant personal agent. Its posture is
-layered, and the layers are not equally load-bearing. Reporters and
-operators should reason about them in the same terms.
-
-### 2.1 Definitions
-
-- **Agent process.** The Python interpreter running Hermes Agent,
-  including any Python modules it has loaded (skills, plugins,
-  hook handlers).
-- **Terminal backend.** A pluggable execution target for the
-  `terminal()` tool. The default runs commands directly on the host.
-  Other backends run commands inside a container, cloud sandbox, or
-  remote host.
-- **Input surface.** Any channel through which content enters the
-  agent's context: operator input, web fetches, email, gateway
-  messages, file reads, MCP server responses, tool results.
-- **Trust envelope.** The set of resources an operator has implicitly
-  granted Hermes Agent access to by running it — typically, whatever
-  the operator's own user account can reach on the host.
-- **Stance.** An explicit statement in Hermes Agent's documentation
-  or code about how a consuming layer (adapter, UI, file writer,
-  shell) should treat agent output — e.g. "the dashboard renders
-  agent output as inert HTML."
-
-### 2.2 The Boundary: OS-Level Isolation
-
-**The only security boundary against an adversarial LLM is the
-operating system.** Nothing inside the agent process constitutes
-containment — not the approval gate, not output redaction, not any
-pattern scanner, not any tool allowlist. Any in-process component
-that screens LLM output is a heuristic operating on an
-attacker-influenced string, and this policy treats it as such.
-
-Hermes Agent supports two OS-level isolation postures. They address
-different threats and an operator should choose deliberately.
-
-#### Terminal-backend isolation
-
-A non-default terminal backend runs LLM-emitted shell commands
-inside a container, remote host, or cloud sandbox. The file tools
-(`read_file`, `write_file`, `patch`) also run through this backend,
-since they are implemented on top of the shell contract — they
-cannot reach paths the backend doesn't expose.
-
-What this confines: anything the agent does by issuing shell or
-file operations. What this does **not** confine: everything the
-agent does in its own Python process. That includes the
-code-execution tool (spawned as a host subprocess), MCP subprocesses
-(spawned from the agent's environment), plugin loading, hook
-dispatch, and skill loading (all imported into the agent
-interpreter).
-
-Terminal-backend isolation is the right posture when the concern is
-LLM-emitted destructive shell or unwanted file-tool writes, and the
-operator is otherwise trusted.
-
-#### Whole-process wrapping
-
-Whole-process wrapping runs the entire agent process tree inside a
-sandbox. Every code path — shell, code-execution, MCP, file tools,
-plugins, hooks, skill loading — is subject to the same filesystem,
-network, process, and (where applicable) inference policy.
-
-Hermes Agent supports this in two ways:
-
-- **Hermes Agent's own Docker image and Compose setup.** Lighter-
-  weight; the agent runs in a standard container with operator-
-  configured mounts and network policy.
-- **[NVIDIA OpenShell](https://github.com/NVIDIA/OpenShell)**.
-  OpenShell provides per-session sandboxes with declarative policy
-  across filesystem, network (L7 egress), process/syscall, and
-  inference-routing layers. Network and inference policies are
-  hot-reloadable. Credentials are injected from a Provider store
-  and never touch the sandbox filesystem.
-
-Under a whole-process wrapper, Hermes Agent's in-process heuristics
-(§2.4) function as accident-prevention layered on top of a real
-boundary. This is the supported posture when the agent ingests
-content from surfaces the operator does not control — the open web,
-inbound email, multi-user channels, untrusted MCP servers — and for
-production or shared deployments.
-
-Operators running the default local backend with untrusted input
-surfaces, or running a terminal-backend sandbox and expecting it to
-contain code paths that don't go through the shell, are operating
-outside the supported security posture.
-
-### 2.3 Credential Scoping
-
-Hermes Agent filters the environment it passes to its lower-trust
-in-process components: shell subprocesses, MCP subprocesses, and
-the code-execution child. Credentials like provider API keys and
-gateway tokens are stripped by default; variables explicitly
-declared by the operator or by a loaded skill are passed through.
-
-This reduces casual exfiltration. It is not containment. Any
-component running inside the agent process (skills, plugins, hook
-handlers) can read whatever the agent itself can read, including
-in-memory credentials. The mitigation against a compromised
-in-process component is operator review before install (§2.4,
-§2.5), not environment scrubbing.
-
-### 2.4 In-Process Heuristics
-
-The following components screen or warn about LLM behavior. They
-are useful. They are not boundaries.
-
-- The **approval gate** detects common destructive shell patterns
-  and prompts the operator before execution. Shell is Turing-
-  complete; a denylist over shell strings is structurally
-  incomplete. The gate catches cooperative-mode mistakes, not
-  adversarial output.
-- **Output redaction** strips secret-like patterns from display.
-  A motivated output producer will defeat it.
-- **Skills Guard** scans installable skill content for injection
-  patterns. It is a review aid; the boundary for third-party skills
-  is operator review before install. Reviewing a skill means
-  reading its Python code and scripts, not just its SKILL.md
-  description — skills execute arbitrary Python at import time.
-
-### 2.5 Plugin Trust Model
-
-Plugins load into the agent process and run with full agent
-privileges: they can read the same credentials, call the same
-tools, register the same hooks, and import the same modules as
-anything shipped in-tree. The boundary for third-party plugins is
-operator review before install — the same rule as skills (§2.4),
-called out separately because plugins are architecturally heavier
-and often ship their own background services, network listeners,
-and dependencies.
-
-A malicious or buggy plugin is not a vulnerability in Hermes Agent
-itself. Bugs in Hermes Agent's plugin-install or plugin-discovery
-path that prevent the operator from seeing what they're installing
-are in scope under §3.1.
-
-### 2.6 External Surfaces
-
-An **external surface** is any channel outside the local agent
-process through which a caller can dispatch agent work, resolve
-approvals, or receive agent output. Each surface has its own
-authorization model, but the rules below apply uniformly.
-
-**Surfaces in Hermes Agent:**
-
-- **Gateway platform adapters.** Messaging integrations in
-  `gateway/platforms/` (Telegram, Discord, Slack, email, SMS, etc.)
-  and analogous adapters shipped as plugins.
-- **Network-exposed HTTP surfaces.** The API server adapter, the
-  dashboard plugin, the kanban plugin's HTTP endpoints, and any
-  other plugin that binds a listening socket.
-- **Editor / IDE adapters.** The ACP adapter (`acp_adapter/`) and
-  equivalent integrations that accept requests from a local client
-  process.
-- **The TUI gateway (`tui_gateway/`).** JSON-RPC backend for the
-  Ink terminal UI, reached over local IPC.
-
-**Uniform rules:**
-
-1. **Authorization is required at every surface that crosses a
-   trust boundary.** For messaging and network HTTP surfaces, the
-   boundary is the network: authorization means an operator-
-   configured caller allowlist. For editor and local-IPC surfaces
-   (ACP, TUI gateway), the boundary is the host's user account:
-   authorization means relying on OS-level access control (file
-   permissions, loopback-only binds) and not exposing the surface
-   beyond the local user without an explicit network auth layer.
-2. **An allowlist is required for every enabled network-exposed
-   adapter.** Adapters must refuse to dispatch agent work, resolve
-   approvals, or relay output until an allowlist is set. Code paths
-   that fail open when no allowlist is configured are code bugs in
-   scope under §3.1.
-3. **Session identifiers are routing handles, not authorization
-   boundaries.** Knowing another caller's session ID does not grant
-   access to their approvals or output; authorization is always
-   re-checked against the allowlist (or OS-level equivalent).
-4. **Within the authorized set, all callers are equally trusted.**
-   Hermes Agent does not model per-caller capabilities inside a
-   single adapter. Operators who need capability separation should
-   run separate agent instances with separate allowlists.
-5. **Binding a local-only surface to a non-loopback interface is a
-   break-glass operator decision (§3.2).** The dashboard and other
-   plugin HTTP servers default to loopback; exposing them via
-   `--host 0.0.0.0` or equivalent makes public-exposure hardening
-   (§4) the operator's responsibility.
-

-
-## 3. Scope
-
-### 3.1 In Scope
-
-- Escape from a declared OS-level isolation posture (§2.2): an
-  attacker-controlled code path reaching state that the posture
-  claimed to confine.
-- Unauthorized external-surface access: a caller outside the
-  configured authorization set (allowlist, or OS-level equivalent
-  for local-IPC surfaces) dispatching work, receiving output, or
-  resolving approvals (§2.6).
-- Credential exfiltration: leakage of operator credentials or
-  session authorization material to a destination outside the
-  trust envelope, via a mechanism that should have prevented it
-  (environment scrubbing bug, adapter logging, transport error
-  that flushes credentials to an upstream, etc.).
-- Trust-model documentation violations: code behaving contrary to
-  what this policy, Hermes Agent's own documentation, or reasonable
-  operator expectations would predict — including cases where
-  Hermes Agent has documented a stance about how its output should
-  be rendered by a consuming layer (dashboard, gateway adapter,
-  file writer, shell) and a code path breaks that stance.
-
-### 3.2 Out of Scope
-
-"Out of scope" here means "not a security vulnerability under this
-policy." It does not mean "not worth reporting." Improvements to the
-in-process heuristics, hardening ideas, and UX fixes are welcome as
-regular issues or pull requests — the approval gate can always catch
-more patterns, redaction can always get smarter, adapter behavior
-can always be tightened. These items just don't go through the
-private-disclosure channel and don't receive advisories.
-
-- **Bypasses of in-process heuristics (§2.4)** — approval-gate regex
-  bypasses, redaction bypasses, Skills Guard pattern bypasses, and
-  analogous reports against future heuristics. These components are
-  not boundaries; defeating them is not a vulnerability under this
-  policy.
-- **Prompt injection per se.** Getting the LLM to emit unusual
-  output — via injected content, hallucination, training artifacts,
-  or any other cause — is not itself a vulnerability. "I achieved
-  prompt injection" without a chained §3.1 outcome is not an
-  actionable report under this policy.
-- **Consequences of a chosen isolation posture.** Reports that a
-  code path operating within its posture's scope can do what that
-  posture permits are not vulnerabilities. Examples: shell or file
-  tools reaching host state under the local backend; code-execution
-  or MCP subprocesses reaching host state under terminal-backend
-  isolation that only sandboxes shell; reports whose preconditions
-  require pre-existing write access to operator-owned configuration
-  or credential files (those are already inside the trust envelope).
-- **Documented break-glass settings.** Operator-selected trade-offs
-  that explicitly disable protections: `--insecure` and equivalent
-  flags on the dashboard or other components, disabled approvals,
-  local backend in production, development profiles that bypass
-  hermes-home security, and similar. Reports against those
-  configurations are not vulnerabilities — that's the flag's job.
-- **Community-contributed skills and plugins.** Third-party skills
-  (including the community skills repository) and third-party
-  plugins are in the operator's review surface, not Hermes Agent's
-  trust surface (§2.4, §2.5). A skill or plugin doing something
-  malicious is the expected failure mode of one that wasn't
-  reviewed, not a vulnerability in Hermes Agent. Bugs in Hermes
-  Agent's skill-install or plugin-install path that prevent the
-  operator from seeing what they're installing are in scope under
-  §3.1.
-- **Public exposure without external controls.** Exposing the
-  gateway or API to the public internet without authentication,
-  VPN, or firewall.
-- **Tool-level read/write restrictions on a posture where shell is
-  permitted.** If a path is reachable via the terminal tool, reports
-  that other file tools can reach it add nothing.
-
----
-
-## 4. Deployment Hardening
-
-The single most important hardening decision is matching isolation
-(§2.2) to the trust of the content the agent will ingest. Beyond
-that:
-
-- Run the agent as a non-root user. The supplied container image
-  does this by default.
-- Keep credentials in the operator credential file with tight
-  permissions, never in the main config, never in version control.
-  Under OpenShell, use the Provider store rather than an on-disk
-  credential file.
-- Do not expose the gateway or API to the public internet without
-  VPN, Tailscale, or firewall protection. Under OpenShell, use the
-  network policy layer to restrict egress.
-- Configure a caller allowlist for every network-exposed adapter
-  you enable (§2.6).
-- Review third-party skills and plugins before install (§2.4,
-  §2.5). For skills, this means reading the Python and scripts,
-  not just SKILL.md. Skills Guard reports and the install audit
-  log are the review surface.
-- Hermes Agent includes supply-chain guards for MCP server
-  launches and for dependency / bundled-package changes in CI; see
-  `CONTRIBUTING.md` for specifics.
-
----
-
-## 5. Disclosure
-
-- **Coordinated disclosure window:** 90 days from report, or until a
-  fix is released, whichever comes first.
-- **Channel:** the GHSA thread or email correspondence with
-  security@nousresearch.com.
-- **Credit:** reporters are credited in release notes unless
-  anonymity is requested.

-"""Microsoft Entra ID adapter for Microsoft Foundry.
-
-Provides keyless authentication for Microsoft Foundry deployments using the

-→ workload identity → managed identity → VS Code → Azure CLI → azd →
-PowerShell → broker).
-
-Architecture mirrors `agent/bedrock_adapter.py`:
-
-* Lazy import. `azure-identity` is only loaded when ``model.auth_mode =
-  entra_id`` is selected. Users who stick with `AZURE_FOUNDRY_API_KEY`
-  never pay the import cost.
-* SDK-callable contract. The public entry point ``build_token_provider``
-  returns a zero-arg callable produced by ``get_bearer_token_provider`` —
-  this is exactly the value Microsoft's documented sample plugs into
-  ``OpenAI(api_key=token_provider, base_url=...)``. The OpenAI SDK calls
-  it before every request, so token refresh is transparent.
-* Three explicit consumer-side helpers (display / cache / http-bearer)
-  rather than one generic "materialize" function — splitting them by
-  purpose prevents accidental token-minting in logging paths or token
-  leakage into cache keys / dashboard JSON.
-* No persisted JWT. ``azure-identity`` caches in-process and (where
-  available) in the OS keychain or ``~/.IdentityService``. Hermes does
-  not duplicate that storage in ``auth.json``.

-    "     • `scripts/<name>.<ext>` — statically re-runnable actions "

-    "nothing is a missed learning opportunity, not a neutral outcome.\n\n"
-    "Target shape of the skill library: CLASS-LEVEL skills with a rich "
-    "SKILL.md and a `references/` directory for session-specific detail. "
-    "Not a long flat list of narrow one-session-one-skill entries.\n\n"
-    "Signals that warrant a skill update (any one is enough):\n"
-    "  • User corrected your style, tone, format, legibility, "
-    "verbosity, or approach. Frustration is a FIRST-CLASS skill "
-    "signal, not just a memory signal. 'stop doing X', 'don't format "
-    "like this', 'I hate when you Y' — embed the lesson in the skill "
-    "that governs that task so the next session starts fixed.\n"
-    "  • Non-trivial technique, fix, workaround, or debugging path "
-    "emerged.\n"
-    "  • A skill that was loaded or consulted turned out wrong, "
-    "missing, or outdated — patch it now.\n\n"
-    "Preference order for skills — pick the earliest that fits:\n"
-    "  1. UPDATE A CURRENTLY-LOADED SKILL. Check what skills were "
-    "loaded via /skill-name or skill_view in the conversation. If one "
-    "of them covers the learning, PATCH it first. It was in play; "
-    "it's the right place.\n"
-    "  2. UPDATE AN EXISTING UMBRELLA (skills_list + skill_view to "
-    "find the right one). Patch it.\n"
-    "  3. ADD A SUPPORT FILE under an existing umbrella via "
-    "skill_manage action=write_file. Three kinds: "
-    "`references/<topic>.md` for session-specific detail OR condensed "
-    "knowledge banks (quoted research, API docs excerpts, domain "
-    "notes) written concise and task-focused; `templates/<name>.<ext>` "
-    "for starter files meant to be copied and modified; "
-    "`scripts/<name>.<ext>` for statically re-runnable actions "
-    "(verification, fixture generators, probes). Add a one-line "
-    "pointer in SKILL.md so future agents find them.\n"
-    "  4. CREATE A NEW CLASS-LEVEL UMBRELLA when nothing exists. "
-    "Name at the class level — NOT a PR number, error string, "
-    "codename, library-alone name, or 'fix-X / debug-Y' session "
-    "artifact. If the name only fits today's task, fall back to (1), "
-    "(2), or (3).\n\n"
-    "User-preference embedding: when the user complains about how "
-    "you handled a task, update the skill that governs that task — "
-    "memory alone isn't enough. Memory says 'who the user is and "
-    "what the current situation and state of your operations are'; "
-    "skills say 'how to do this class of task for this user'. Both "
-    "should carry user-preference lessons when relevant.\n\n"
-    "If you notice overlapping existing skills, mention it — the "
-    "background curator handles consolidation.\n\n"
-    "Protected skills (DO NOT edit these):\n"
-    "  • Bundled skills (shipped with Hermes, e.g. 'hermes-agent').\n"
-    "  • Hub-installed skills (installed via 'hermes skills install').\n"
-    "  • Pinned skills (marked via 'hermes curator pin').\n"
-    "If the only skills that need updating are protected, say\n"
-    "'Nothing to save.' and stop.\n\n"
-    "Do NOT capture as skills (these become persistent self-imposed "
-    "constraints that bite you later when the environment changes):\n"
-    "  • Environment-dependent failures: missing binaries, fresh-install "
-    "errors, post-migration path mismatches, 'command not found', "
-    "unconfigured credentials, uninstalled packages. The user can fix "
-    "these — they are not durable rules.\n"
-    "  • Negative claims about tools or features ('browser tools do not "
-    "work', 'X tool is broken', 'cannot use Y from execute_code'). These "
-    "harden into refusals the agent cites against itself for months "
-    "after the actual problem was fixed.\n"
-    "  • Session-specific transient errors that resolved before the "
-    "conversation ended. If retrying worked, the lesson is the retry "
-    "pattern, not the original failure.\n"
-    "  • One-off task narratives. A user asking 'summarize today's "
-    "market' or 'analyze this PR' is not a class of work that warrants "
-    "a skill.\n\n"
-    "If a tool failed because of setup state, capture the FIX (install "
-    "command, config step, env var to set) under an existing setup or "
-    "troubleshooting skill — never 'this tool does not work' as a "
-    "standalone constraint.\n\n"
-    "Act on whichever of the two dimensions has real signal. If "
-    "genuinely nothing stands out on either, say 'Nothing to save.' "
-    "and stop — but don't reach for that conclusion as a default."

-Browser Provider ABC
-====================
-
-Defines the pluggable-backend interface for cloud browser providers
-(Browserbase, Browser Use, Firecrawl, …). Providers register instances via
-:meth:`PluginContext.register_browser_provider`; the active one (selected via
-``browser.cloud_provider`` in ``config.yaml``) services every cloud-mode
-``browser_*`` tool call.
-
-Providers live in ``<repo>/plugins/browser/<name>/`` (built-in, auto-loaded as
-``kind: backend``) or ``~/.hermes/plugins/browser/<name>/`` (user, opt-in via
-``plugins.enabled``).
-
-This ABC mirrors :class:`agent.web_search_provider.WebSearchProvider` (PR
-#25182) — same shape, same registration flow, same picker integration. The
-legacy in-tree ``tools.browser_providers.base.CloudBrowserProvider`` ABC was
-deleted in PR #25214 (this work) along with the per-vendor inline modules in
-``tools/browser_providers/``; the lifecycle contract documented below is
-preserved bit-for-bit so the tool wrapper (:mod:`tools.browser_tool`) does
-not have to translate.
-
-Session metadata contract (preserved from the legacy ``CloudBrowserProvider``)::
-
-    {
-        "session_name": str,        # unique name for agent-browser --session
-        "bb_session_id": str,       # provider session ID (for close/cleanup)
-        "cdp_url": str,             # CDP websocket URL
-        "features": dict,           # feature flags that were enabled
-        "external_call_id": str,    # optional, managed-gateway billing key
-    }
-
-``bb_session_id`` is a legacy key name kept verbatim for backward compat with
-:mod:`tools.browser_tool` — it holds the provider's session ID regardless of
-which provider is in use.

-Browser Provider Registry
-=========================

-``browser_*`` tool call to the active backend.
-
-Active selection
-----------------
-The active provider is chosen by configuration with this precedence:
-
-1. ``browser.cloud_provider`` in ``config.yaml`` (explicit override).
-2. Legacy preference order — ``browser-use`` → ``browserbase`` — filtered by
-   availability. Matches the historic auto-detect order in
-   :func:`tools.browser_tool._get_cloud_provider` (Browser Use checked first
-   because it covers both the managed Nous gateway and direct API key path;
-   Browserbase as the older direct-credentials fallback). ``firecrawl`` is
-   intentionally NOT in the legacy walk — users only get Firecrawl as a
-   cloud browser when they explicitly set ``browser.cloud_provider:
-   firecrawl``, matching pre-migration behaviour where Firecrawl was never
-   auto-selected.
-3. Otherwise ``None`` — the dispatcher falls back to local browser mode.

-The explicit-config branch (rule 1) intentionally ignores ``is_available()``
-so the dispatcher surfaces a typed "X_API_KEY is not set" error to the user
-instead of silently switching backends. Matches the legacy

-
-Note: there is no "capability" split here (unlike the web subsystem, which

-"""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

-
-* :func:`compress_context` — the actual compression call.  Runs the

-  session_id, notifies plugin context engines / memory providers, and
-  returns the compressed message list and freshly-built system prompt.
-
-* :func:`try_shrink_image_parts_in_messages` — image-too-large recovery
-  helper that re-encodes ``data:image/...;base64,...`` parts at a smaller
-  size so retries can fit under provider ceilings (Anthropic's 5 MB).

-"""Unified removal contract for every credential source Hermes reads from.
-
-Hermes seeds its credential pool from many places:
-
-    env:<VAR>     — os.environ / ~/.hermes/.env
-    claude_code   — ~/.claude/.credentials.json
-    hermes_pkce   — ~/.hermes/.anthropic_oauth.json
-    device_code   — auth.json providers.<provider> (nous, openai-codex, ...)
-    qwen-cli      — ~/.qwen/oauth_creds.json
-    gh_cli        — gh auth token
-    config:<name> — custom_providers config entry
-    model_config  — model.api_key when model.provider == "custom"
-    manual        — user ran `hermes auth add`
-
-Each source has its own reader inside ``agent.credential_pool._seed_from_*``
-(which keep their existing shape — we haven't restructured them).  What we
-unify here is **removal**:
-
-    ``hermes auth remove <provider> <N>`` must make the pool entry stay gone.
-
-Before this module, every source had an ad-hoc removal branch in
-``auth_remove_command``, and several sources had no branch at all — so
-``auth remove`` silently reverted on the next ``load_pool()`` call for
-qwen-cli, nous device_code (partial), hermes_pkce, copilot gh_cli, and
-custom-config sources.
-
-Now every source registers a ``RemovalStep`` that does exactly three things
-in the same shape:
-
-    1. Clean up whatever externally-readable state the source reads from
-       (.env line, auth.json block, OAuth file, etc.)
-    2. Suppress the ``(provider, source_id)`` in auth.json so the
-       corresponding ``_seed_from_*`` branch skips the upsert on re-load
-    3. Return ``RemovalResult`` describing what was cleaned and any
-       diagnostic hints the user should see (shell-exported env vars,
-       external credential files we deliberately don't delete, etc.)
-
-Adding a new credential source is:
-    - wire up a reader branch in ``_seed_from_*`` (existing pattern)
-    - gate that reader behind ``is_source_suppressed(provider, source_id)``
-    - register a ``RemovalStep`` here
-
-No more per-source if/elif chain in ``auth_remove_command``.

-"""Curator snapshot + rollback.
-
-A pre-run snapshot of ``~/.hermes/skills/`` (excluding ``.curator_backups/``
-itself) is taken before any mutating curator pass. Snapshots are tar.gz
-files under ``~/.hermes/skills/.curator_backups/<utc-iso>/`` with a
-companion ``manifest.json`` describing the snapshot (reason, time, size,
-counted skill files). Rollback picks a snapshot, moves the current
-``skills/`` tree aside into another snapshot so even the rollback itself
-is undoable, then extracts the chosen snapshot into place.
-
-The snapshot does NOT include:
-  - ``.curator_backups/`` (would recurse)
-  - ``.hub/`` (hub-installed skills — managed by the hub, not us)
-
-It DOES include:
-  - all SKILL.md files + their directories (``scripts/``, ``references/``,
-    ``templates/``, ``assets/``)
-  - ``.usage.json`` (usage telemetry — needed to rehydrate state cleanly)
-  - ``.archive/`` (so rollback restores previously-archived skills too)
-  - ``.curator_state`` (so rolling back also restores the last-run-at
-    pointer — otherwise the curator would immediately re-fire on the next
-    tick)
-  - ``.bundled_manifest`` (so protection markers stay consistent)
-
-Alongside the skills tarball, each snapshot also captures a copy of
-``~/.hermes/cron/jobs.json`` as ``cron-jobs.json`` when it exists. Cron
-jobs reference skills by name in their ``skills``/``skill`` fields; the
-curator's consolidation pass rewrites those in place via
-``cron.jobs.rewrite_skill_refs()``. Without capturing the pre-run state,
-rolling back the skills tree would leave cron jobs pointing at the
-umbrella skills even though the narrow skills they were originally
-configured with have been restored. We store the whole jobs.json for
-fidelity but rollback only touches the ``skills``/``skill`` fields — the
-rest (schedule, next_run_at, enabled, prompt, etc.) is live state and
-we leave it alone.

-"""OpenAI-compatible facade that talks to Google's Cloud Code Assist backend.

-traffic goes to ``cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com/v1internal:{generateContent,

-
-Architecture
-------------
-- ``GeminiCloudCodeClient`` exposes ``.chat.completions.create(**kwargs)``
-  mirroring the subset of the OpenAI SDK that ``run_agent.py`` uses.
-- Incoming OpenAI ``messages[]`` / ``tools[]`` / ``tool_choice`` are translated
-  to Gemini's native ``contents[]`` / ``tools[].functionDeclarations`` /
-  ``toolConfig`` / ``systemInstruction`` shape.
-- The request body is wrapped ``{project, model, user_prompt_id, request}``
-  per Code Assist API expectations.
-- Responses (``candidates[].content.parts[]``) are converted back to
-  OpenAI ``choices[0].message`` shape with ``content`` + ``tool_calls``.
-- Streaming uses SSE (``?alt=sse``) and yields OpenAI-shaped delta chunks.
-
-Attribution
------------
-Translation semantics follow jenslys/opencode-gemini-auth (MIT) and the public
-Gemini API docs. Request envelope shape
-(``{project, model, user_prompt_id, request}``) is documented nowhere; it is
-reverse-engineered from the opencode-gemini-auth and clawdbot implementations.

-"""OpenAI-compatible facade over Google AI Studio's native Gemini API.
-
-Hermes keeps ``api_mode='chat_completions'`` for the ``gemini`` provider so the
-main agent loop can keep using its existing OpenAI-shaped message flow.
-This adapter is the transport shim that converts those OpenAI-style
-``messages[]`` / ``tools[]`` requests into Gemini's native
-``models/{model}:generateContent`` schema and converts the responses back.
-
-Why this exists
----------------
-Google's OpenAI-compatible endpoint has been brittle for Hermes's multi-turn
-agent/tool loop (auth churn, tool-call replay quirks, thought-signature
-requirements).  The native Gemini API is the canonical path and avoids the
-OpenAI-compat layer entirely.

-"""Google Code Assist API client — project discovery, onboarding, quota.

-The Code Assist API powers Google's official gemini-cli. It sits at
-``cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com`` and provides:
-
-- Free tier access (generous daily quota) for personal Google accounts
-- Paid tier access via GCP projects with billing / Workspace / Standard / Enterprise
-
-This module handles the control-plane dance needed before inference:
-
-1. ``load_code_assist()`` — probe the user's account to learn what tier they're on
-   and whether a ``cloudaicompanionProject`` is already assigned.
-2. ``onboard_user()`` — if the user hasn't been onboarded yet (new account, fresh
-   free tier, etc.), call this with the chosen tier + project id. Supports LRO
-   polling for slow provisioning.
-3. ``retrieve_user_quota()`` — fetch the ``buckets[]`` array showing remaining
-   quota per model, used by the ``/gquota`` slash command.
-
-VPC-SC handling: enterprise accounts under a VPC Service Controls perimeter
-will get ``SECURITY_POLICY_VIOLATED`` on ``load_code_assist``. We catch this
-and force the account to ``standard-tier`` so the call chain still succeeds.
-
-Derived from opencode-gemini-auth (MIT) and clawdbot/extensions/google. The
-request/response shapes are specific to Google's internal Code Assist API,
-documented nowhere public — we copy them from the reference implementations.

-"""Lightweight internationalization (i18n) for Hermes static user-facing messages.
-
-Scope (thin slice, by design): only the highest-impact static strings shown
-to the user by Hermes itself -- approval prompts, a handful of gateway slash
-command replies, restart-drain notices.  Agent-generated output, log lines,
-error tracebacks, tool outputs, and slash-command descriptions all stay in
-English.
-
-Catalog files live under ``locales/<lang>.yaml`` at the repo root.  Each
-catalog is a flat dict keyed by dotted paths (e.g. ``approval.choose`` or
-``gateway.approval_expired``).  Missing keys fall back to English; if English
-is missing too, the key path itself is returned so a broken catalog never
-crashes the agent.
-
-Usage::
-
-    from agent.i18n import t
-    print(t("approval.choose_long"))                       # current lang
-    print(t("gateway.draining", count=3))                  # {count} formatted
-    print(t("approval.choose_long", lang="zh"))            # explicit override
-
-Language resolution order:
-    1. Explicit ``lang=`` argument passed to :func:`t`
-    2. ``HERMES_LANGUAGE`` environment variable (for tests / quick override)
-    3. ``display.language`` from config.yaml
-    4. ``"en"`` (baseline)
-
-Supported languages: en, zh, ja, de, es, fr, tr, uk.  Unknown values fall back to en.

-Image Generation Provider ABC
-=============================
-
-Defines the pluggable-backend interface for image generation. Providers register
-instances via ``PluginContext.register_image_gen_provider()``; the active one
-(selected via ``image_gen.provider`` in ``config.yaml``) services every
-``image_generate`` tool call.
-
-Providers live in ``<repo>/plugins/image_gen/<name>/`` (built-in, auto-loaded
-as ``kind: backend``) or ``~/.hermes/plugins/image_gen/<name>/`` (user, opt-in
-via ``plugins.enabled``).
-
-Response shape
---------------
-All providers return a dict that :func:`success_response` / :func:`error_response`
-produce. The tool wrapper JSON-serializes it. Keys:
-
-    success        bool
-    image          str | None       URL or absolute file path
-    model          str              provider-specific model identifier
-    prompt         str              echoed prompt

-            OpenAI chat.completions) already translate these into their

-
-  text    — run ``vision_analyze`` on each image up-front and prepend the
-            description to the user's text. The model never sees the pixels;
-            it only sees a lossy text summary. This is the pre-existing
-            behaviour and still the right choice for non-vision models.
-
-The decision is made once per message turn by :func:`decide_image_input_mode`.
-It reads ``agent.image_input_mode`` from config.yaml (``auto`` | ``native``
-| ``text``, default ``auto``) and the active model's capability metadata.
-
-In ``auto`` mode:
-  - If the user has explicitly configured ``auxiliary.vision.provider``

-    regardless of the main model — they've opted in to a specific vision
-    backend for a reason (cost, quality, local-only, etc.).
-  - Otherwise, if the active model reports ``supports_vision=True`` in its
-    models.dev metadata, we attach natively.
-  - Otherwise (non-vision model, no explicit override), we fall back to text.
-
-This keeps ``vision_analyze`` surfaced as a tool in every session — skills
-and agent flows that chain it (browser screenshots, deeper inspection of
-URL-referenced images, style-gating loops) keep working. The routing only
-affects *how user-attached images on the current turn* are presented to the

-"""Async LSP client over stdin/stdout.
-
-One :class:`LSPClient` corresponds to one ``(language_server, workspace_root)``
-pair — exactly what OpenCode keys clients on, and the same shape Claude
-Code uses.  The client owns a child process, drives the JSON-RPC
-exchange, and exposes:
-
-- :meth:`open_file` / :meth:`change_file` — text document sync
-- :meth:`wait_for_diagnostics` — block until the server emits fresh
-  diagnostics for a specific file (or a timeout fires)
-- :meth:`diagnostics_for` — read the current per-file diagnostic store
-- :meth:`shutdown` — graceful close + SIGTERM/SIGKILL fallback
-
-The class is designed for async use from a single asyncio event loop.
-The :class:`agent.lsp.manager.LSPService` runs an event loop in a
-background thread so the synchronous file_operations layer can call
-into it via :func:`agent.lsp.manager.LSPService.touch_file`.
-
-Implementation notes:
-
-- Push diagnostics are stored per-URI in :attr:`_push_diagnostics` from
-  ``textDocument/publishDiagnostics`` notifications.  Pull diagnostics
-  go in :attr:`_pull_diagnostics`.  The merged view dedupes by content.
-
-- Whole-document sync.  Even when the server advertises incremental
-  sync, we send a single ``contentChanges`` entry replacing the
-  entire document.  Pretending to be incremental while sending a
-  full replacement is well-tolerated by every major server and saves
-  range bookkeeping.  See OpenCode's ``client.ts:584-659`` for the
-  same trick.
-
-- The "touch-file dance": every ``open_file`` call also fires a
-  ``workspace/didChangeWatchedFiles`` notification (CREATED on the
-  first open, CHANGED thereafter).  Some servers (clangd, eslint)
-  only re-scan when this notification fires, even though the LSP spec
-  doesn't strictly require it.
-
-- ``ContentModified`` (-32801) errors get retried with exponential
-  backoff up to 3 times.  This matches Claude Code's
-  ``LSPServerInstance.sendRequest``.

-log for "did LSP fire on that edit?" without drowning in noise.
-
-The level model:
-
-- ``DEBUG`` for steady-state events that have no novel signal:
-  ``clean``, ``feature off``, ``extension not mapped``, ``no project
-  root for already-announced file``, ``server unavailable for
-  already-announced binary``.  These never reach ``agent.log`` at the
-  default INFO threshold.
-
-- ``INFO`` for state transitions worth surfacing exactly once per
-  session: ``active for <root>`` the first time a (server_id,
-  workspace_root) client starts, ``no project root for <path>``
-  the first time we see that file.  Plus every diagnostic event
-  (those are inherently rare and per-edit, exactly what users grep
-  for).
-
-- ``WARNING`` for action-required failures: ``server unavailable``
-  (binary not on PATH) the first time per (server_id, binary),
-  ``no server configured`` once per language.  Per-call WARNING for
-  timeouts and unexpected bridge exceptions.
-
-The dedup is in-process module-level sets.  Each set grows at most by
-the number of distinct (server_id, root) and (server_id, binary)
-pairs touched in one Python process — bytes of memory in even an
-aggressive monorepo session.  Bounded LRU was rejected: evicting an

-"""Service-level orchestration for LSP clients.
-
-The :class:`LSPService` is the bridge between the synchronous
-file_operations layer and the async :class:`agent.lsp.client.LSPClient`.
-
-Design choices:
-
-- A **single asyncio event loop** runs in a background thread.  All
-  client work happens on that loop.  Synchronous callers from
-  ``tools/file_operations.py`` use :meth:`get_diagnostics_sync` to
-  open + wait + drain in one blocking call.
-
-- One client per ``(server_id, workspace_root)`` key.  Lazy spawn:
-  the first request for a key spawns the client; subsequent requests
-  re-use it.
-
-- A **broken-set** records ``(server_id, workspace_root)`` pairs that
-  failed to spawn or initialize.  These are never retried for the
-  life of the service.  Mirrors OpenCode's design.
-
-- A **delta baseline** map keeps "diagnostics-as-of-the-last-snapshot"
-  per file.  ``snapshot_baseline()`` is called BEFORE a write; the
-  next ``get_diagnostics_sync()`` returns only diagnostics that
-  weren't in the baseline.  This is the lift from Claude Code's
-  ``beforeFileEdited`` / ``getNewDiagnostics`` pattern, except wired
-  to the local LSP layer instead of MCP IDE RPC.
-
-The service is **off by default** — call :meth:`is_active` to check
-whether it's actually doing anything.  When LSP is disabled in
-config, when no git workspace can be detected, when all configured
-servers are missing binaries and auto-install is off, ``is_active``
-returns False and the file_operations layer falls through to the
-in-process syntax check.

-"""Diff-aware line-shift map for cross-edit LSP delta filtering.
-
-When an edit deletes or inserts lines in the middle of a file, every
-diagnostic below the edit point shifts to a new line number.  The
-LSPService delta filter subtracts the pre-edit baseline from the
-post-edit diagnostics keyed on ``(severity, code, source, message,
-range)`` — without an adjustment, the shifted-but-otherwise-identical
-diagnostics look brand-new and the agent gets flooded with noise.
-
-The fix used here is the same trick git's blame and unified diff use:
-build a piecewise-linear map from pre-edit line numbers to post-edit
-line numbers, then apply that map to baseline diagnostics before the
-set-difference.  Diagnostics whose pre-edit line is in a region the
-edit deleted return ``None`` and are dropped from the baseline (they
-genuinely no longer apply).
-
-Trade-off vs. dropping range from the key entirely (the previous
-fix): preserves the "new instance of an identical error at a
-different line" signal — if the model introduces a second instance
-of the same error class at a different location, that one will be
-surfaced as new instead of swallowed by content-only dedup.
-
-The map is derived from ``difflib.SequenceMatcher.get_opcodes()`` and
