Hindsight now ships from its maintainer's repo (vectorize-io/hindsight,
hindsight-integrations/hermes) through plugin-catalog/hindsight.yaml, so the
in-tree copy under plugins/memory/hindsight goes away. Homes that still name
`memory.provider: hindsight` are migrated by hermes_cli/memory_provider_migration.py
(the `hermes update` hook and the first agent start install the catalog plugin);
that path is untouched here.
Core-side special cases that only made sense with the bundled copy go with it:
the `memory.hindsight` LAZY_DEPS feature, `_provider_pip_dependencies`'s
`hindsight-all` expansion in `hermes memory setup` (the plugin's own
`_ensure_local_runtime()` installs the embedded runtime now), the compat-manifest
pointers of the deleted module, and prose that listed hindsight among the in-tree
providers. Generic provider-name lists, the HINDSIGHT_* env hints and the API-key
redaction pattern stay — a catalog-installed hindsight still uses them.
Revert this commit alone to restore the bundled provider.
Subcommands whose handler was a closure defined inside main() — memory, acp,
tools, insights, skills, pairing, plugins, mcp, claw — have their handler
promoted to a top-level function and their parser block extracted into
hermes_cli/subcommands/<name>.py (build_<name>_parser, injected handler).
These 9 had zero closure-over-main-locals, so promotion is a pure relocation.
acp/mcp parser blocks use the shared add_accept_hooks_flag helper.
main() 1798 -> 954 LOC (71% below the 3297 Phase-2 starting point);
add_parser calls in main.py 89 -> 28.
Deferred: sessions, computer-use, secrets handlers reference <name>_parser
(for a no-subcommand print_help fallback) — left in place to avoid the
_self_parser indirection; minority, low value.
Behavior-neutral: all 9 subcommands' --help (incl nested subactions) byte-
identical to pre-extraction (diff-verified). tests/hermes_cli/ 6519 passed /
0 failed; new test_subcommands_followup.py covers the 9 builders.
