Move retention, orphan pruning, status and clear operations into a topical sibling and route callers and tests directly to their defining module. Keep the shared store paths and git execution in checkpoint_manager; shorten the local child-env WHAT docstring.
Mechanical, behaviour-neutral extraction along the existing hermes_cli/cli_*.py
pattern. Six clusters of module-level helpers leave cli.py:
- cli_config_load.py prefill messages, reasoning/service-tier parsing, terminal
env mirroring, CLI defaults + YAML merge, logging bootstrap
- cli_render.py reasoning-tag stripping, ANSI/skin colours, light-mode
detection, markdown/final rendering, output-history
recording, _cprint, ChatConsole, compact banner, panel wrap
- cli_terminal_input.py file drops/attachments, bracketed-paste patch, extended
Enter keys, CPR guards, TUI input height, query images
- cli_shutdown.py process session-id sync, exit watchdog, cleanup steps,
session-finalize notifications, one-shot finalize
- cli_single_query.py kanban goal loops, exit-code mapping, quiet -q runner,
image routing, signal handlers, single-query mode
- cli_auto_maintenance.py state-db / checkpoint startup maintenance
Every moved body is AST-identical to the base copy modulo two mechanical
edits: cli-level names are late-bound with a call-time `from cli import ...`
(the cli_init_mixin pattern) and mutable cli state is read through `_cli().NAME`
(the gateway_service_unit `_gw()` pattern), so every monkeypatch seam on the
`cli` facade still intercepts moved code and no read snapshots stale state.
Mutable module state and every `global`-writing function stay in cli.py; the
facade re-exports the moved names in one import block.
test_bracketed_paste_timeout AST-loads the paste helper from its new home.
cli.py 3959 -> 1820 lines.
