The #119975 display-name lookup called get_live_catalog_entry() inside
the per-plugin loop of _plugin_rows, paying a full catalog resolution
(load_catalog_live: fetch or cache read + parse of every in-tree catalog
yaml, no memoization) once per installed plugin. plugins.manage list went
from O(1) to O(installed plugins) catalog resolutions, and a dead
catalog host cost one request timeout per plugin — the exact per-candidate
cost resolved_removed_entries() exists to eliminate.
Hoist the resolution next to pins/versions: catalog_titles() builds
{catalog_name: title} in one resolution and _plugin_server_rows reads
from the pre-resolved map, mirroring catalog_pins/catalog_versions.
Regression test counts load_catalog_live calls across a 3-plugin
listing: 3 before, 1 after.
Fresh fix for #119975 (PR #119993 was deleted; nothing to salvage).
Three paths collapsed into app_not_running with the sentence '<slug> is
not running. Start <slug>': (1) a server_json probe with the app running
AND its endpoint PRESENT — the exact case from the report, where the only
thing missing is Hermes' own MCP connection; (2) every non-server_json,
non-interactive_session liveness kind; (3) static and unregistered
liveness, which cannot observe the app at all yet still claimed it was
stopped. Telling the user to start an app that IS running is the wrong
instruction.
Add a hermes_not_connected LivenessState ('<app>'s MCP connection is
missing. Reconnect <app> in Hermes, then try again.'), map the
running+endpoint-present branch and the static/unknown fallback to it, and
wire it through the TUI gateway contract (PluginServerState) and the
Desktop Plugins tab (AgentPluginServerState, SERVER_TONE, serverStates
i18n in en/de/es/fr).
Also stop composing the sentence from the declaration's slug: describe()
takes an optional display_name, and _plugin_server_rows passes the
curated catalog title (fallback: the manifest name) so the Plugins tab
reads 'NVIDIA App' instead of a raw server slug.
Fixes#119975
Skill slashes that miss the 4018 gate print the loading banner and park
the prompt on unread _pending_input. Refuse before process_command, and
return command.dispatch's skill payload or a hard error when the skill
scan raises so fail-open cannot drop the turn.
A Desktop/TUI MoA session pins the live agent to the virtual moa provider,
but the persistent slash-worker subprocess was spawned with only --model.
HermesCLI re-resolves provider from config.yaml, so /moa dispatched the MoA
preset NAME (model='default') to the configured real provider — openrouter
402 max_tokens errors in the original report. Forward the parent agent's
resolved provider on the worker argv (--provider) and pass it through to
HermesCLI at both spawn sites (first-use in slash.exec and the post-switch
_restart_slash_worker).
The issue's first layer (active-profile.json persistence) was already fixed
on main by d27180ba7f; this is the remaining provider-propagation layer.
Background processes spawned with terminal(background=true) are killed from
three agent-lifecycle sweeps: agent release()'s kill_all, a gateway turn
timeout's kill_started_since, and agent close's owned-process loop. Jobs the
user explicitly wants to outlive the session (overnight batches, watchful
daemons) had no way to opt out.
Add terminal(background=true, persist_on_release=true):
- ProcessSession.persist_on_release, stamped by spawn_local/spawn_via_env,
carried in crash-recovery checkpoints and exposed via list_sessions()
- kill_all skips persisted sessions only for lifecycle sources
(_LIFECYCLE_KILL_SOURCES: kill_all, gateway_turn_timeout, agent_close);
explicit operator stops (process_manage kill, /stop slash + RPC mirror,
CLI /stop) now pass distinct sources so they still reach persisted jobs
- the agent_close owned-process loop in _close_task_resources skips
persisted sessions the same way
- gateway shutdown keeps killing persisted jobs (source=gateway_shutdown):
the host is going away and survivors would become PPID=1 orphans
Co-authored-by: salvaged from #109846 (persist_on_release plumbing) and
extended to the turn-timeout and agent_close paths.
The classic CLI and the messaging gateway forward agent.disabled_toolsets to
AIAgent, where get_tool_definitions strips the named toolsets even out of
composite defaults like hermes-cli (#17309). The desktop/TUI gateway dropped
the list, so disabled_toolsets: [browser] silently had no effect on Desktop —
the only consumer was _get_platform_tools' name-level subtraction, which
cannot reach inside a composite default toolset. Users configuring an
explicit BrowserOS MCP server had no way to suppress the built-in browser_*
tools, and the agent then favored the unauthenticated built-in browser.
Forward the config list at every gateway agent construction and refresh site:
_make_agent, _background_agent_kwargs, the reload.mcp per-session refresh
(refresh_agent_mcp_tools disabled_override) and tools.show.
Salvaged from #44505 (AIalliAI).

Desktop per-bot add-from-catalog sends a catalog id as preset. The handler
only consulted the CLI preset registry, which raises before the 4063 check,
so every catalog add returned 5024. Resolve the catalog first; an explicit
url or command still wins; an unknown id returns 4063.
Fixes#118944
With no live turn, AIAgent.steer() still accepted the text and the gateway
answered 'Steer queued'. Nothing drained it until the next turn's pre-API
drain spliced it after the newest tool row, possibly one from an earlier
turn (misplaced, cache-breaking), or it was requeued.
- command.dispatch /steer: idle sends the text as the next turn with a
notice (CLI parity) instead of calling agent.steer().
- session.steer: idle answers 'rejected' without touching the agent, so
clients fall back to their next-turn queue.
- TUI /steer: a rejected steer is queued for the next turn, not dropped.
Fixes#64578
The onboarding card needs to list catalog plugins beside the hosted
connectors (NS-960 D1, D4) and grey a plugin whose app is absent (D5).
The catalog had no curated flag, and the manage_catalog row left
app_state empty.
- `onboarding: true` and `title` on catalog entries (loader, validator,
docs); set on blender, nvidia-app and nvidia-broadcast.
- hermes_cli/plugin_catalog_presence.py reads the plugin.json at the
catalog's pinned commit once per pin and judges its app declaration with
the hermes_platform resolver the installer and the Plugins-tab pill use.
No declaration or an unreadable one is `unknown`, never `present`.
- `plugins.manage action=onboarding` lists the curated entries this OS
runs (platform mismatch is the only exclusion) with app_state and the
sentence the card greys the row with.
- manage_catalog plugin rows now carry app_state and the catalog title.
- A live entry that differs from the in-tree entry at the same pin (new
metadata) now follows the same newer-catalog rule as a new pin, so a
checkout that adds `onboarding` is not masked by a published doc that
predates it.
Installing a plugin from any surface now makes its MCP servers and skills
usable in every open chat of that profile on the chat's next turn. There is
no Connect-now button, no /reload-mcp, no relaunch.
- hermes_cli/plugins_activation.py::load_and_go_live: after the forced plugin
rescan, connect the plugin's portable MCP servers one by one
(register_mcp_servers, the connector flow's call), then refresh that
profile's open chats and queue a turn note listing the servers, their
tools and the plugin's skills. activation gains live_now; deferred keeps
only Python tools and prompt sections.
- MCP tools are deferred behind tool_search / tool_call, so appending them
(preserve_prefix) leaves the model-facing tool array and the cached prompt
prefix unchanged; the note rides the existing one-shot turn-note channel,
so the system prompt stays byte-stable. /reload-mcp keeps its consent gate:
it is a full rebuild.
- tui_gateway/methods_tools.py: one session walk (_refresh_live_sessions)
shared by reload.mcp and plugin activation, filtered to the plugin's
profile home.
- hermes plugins install/enable (another process) asks the running Desktop /
dashboard backend to do the in-process half through the new
POST /api/dashboard/agent-plugins/activate, found via the host rendezvous
record and its session token.
- Desktop: the Connect-now toast and its strings are removed in all six
locales; the install toast says what went live ("3 tools connected ·
skill X ready") and warns per server that did not connect.
- Contract: PluginActivation.live_now; regenerated TS/OpenRPC.
- register_skill docstring: plugin skills are listed by skills_list.
A plugin that finished loading after an adapter connected never got its platform
handlers (slash commands, button callbacks, inbound transforms) registered until a
gateway restart, silently. Three pieces, one seam shared by every surface:
1. Discovery listener: PluginManager.on_plugin_loaded(cb) fires from INSIDE
discover_and_load for the plugins a sweep newly loaded (diff of the loaded set),
with a per-plugin activation summary (hermes_cli/plugins_activation.py):
activated_now {gateway_commands, gateway_transforms, hooks, callbacks} vs
deferred {tools, prompt, mcp_servers}. Every mid-run load path now performs a real
discover_plugins(force=True): CLI install/enable (via the gateway), Desktop/TUI
plugins.manage install/toggle/update, dashboard REST install, tool-triggered
force re-discovery, the new `reload-plugins` control-socket verb. A non-forced
discover_plugins() short-circuits on _discovered, which is why reload.mcp after
a mid-run install used to reload the OLD server set.
2. Idempotent re-wire: BasePlatformAdapter.rewire_plugin_handlers() runs only
factories not yet wired on the live native client (keyed (plugin, qualname);
a force reload hands back new function objects). Telegram hoists late handlers
ahead of core's catch-all filters.COMMAND / CallbackQueryHandler (PTB dispatches
the first match per group) and re-wires on the transient-init rebuild; Slack
dedupes register_slack_action_handler per AsyncApp. The gateway runner
subscribes per served profile and re-wires on the loop.
3. Scope limit + honest messaging: handlers only. Tools/prompt stay deferred to
the next session (prompt-cache invariant), MCP servers to mcp.reload; the CLI
hint and plugins.manage results (activation, gateway_reloaded,
restart_required only when no gateway answered) say exactly that.
* fix(plugins): portable MCP servers get a readable name so tool names fit the 64-char cap
A portable plugin's MCP server was named `<skill_namespace>__<server>`, i.e.
`agent-plugin-<slug>-<sha8>__<server>`. That prefix is right for plugin-data and skill names
(collision-free without coordination, and persisted on disk) but it costs ~40 chars of every
`mcp__<server>__<tool>` name. Providers cap function names at 64, so the registry clamped every
tool of the NVIDIA plugin to a hash-suffixed stub with the verb cut off:
`mcp__agent_plugin_hermes_nvidia_72eb26b1__nvidia_app__n_3fa9c2d1`.
Server names only need to be unique among loaded portable servers, and the loader already refuses
a clash. `portable_mcp_server_name(key, server)` = `<plugin-slug>__<server>`, collapsed to
`<plugin-slug>` when the two match (the one-server package). The loader and the desktop card's
server rows both call it (the card recomputed the f-string on its own before). Skill and plugin-data
namespaces are unchanged; nothing persisted refers to the server name, so no migration.
Tests: the existing portable-load test now pins the relationship (server name = plugin slug +
server; a long vendor tool name reaches the wire unclamped), and a new test covers the clash the
digest used to hide: two enabled packages folding to one slug, second server skipped, first served.
Both red on main. Docs: developer-guide/plugins/index.md.
* fix(plugins): a portable MCP server is named what its mcp.json calls it, nothing prepended
Drop the plugin segment too. A user's own config.yaml server named `nvidia-app` yields
`mcp__nvidia_app__<tool>`; a portable plugin's server of the same name now yields the same. Duplicates
are refused at load (config.yaml first, then first-loaded plugin) with a warning naming both owners.
Spike, isolated HERMES_HOME, real session: a portable plugin with server `acme-tools` and tool
`acme_client_get_driver_status_report` registers as
`mcp__acme_tools__acme_client_get_driver_status_report`; the model found it by tool_search, called it,
and reported that exact name. Same plugin on main: `mcp__agent_plugin_acme_tools_88e7456f__acme_tools__acme_153862de`.
* feat(connectors): the backend serves a connector's tool list, cached for 24 hours
The Connectors page opens one app and shows every tool it has. The backend
had no way to read that list.
- `tools/connectors/portal/`: a client for the portal's tool-list route and a
JSON cache under the Hermes home, one file per portal origin and connector.
An entry is fresh for 24 hours. After that the read revalidates with the
stored ETag: 304 keeps the list, 404 deletes the entry, an upstream failure
serves the stored list marked stale, and a 401 never serves the cache.
- `connectors.tools {slug, refresh}`: account-level, routed by `profile`, no
chat session. Errors carry a fixed `reason` from one closed set on the rail.
- Every connector model that is not operation state moves into
`tui_gateway/contracts/connectors.py`. Handlers that no chat session owns
live in `tui_gateway/methods_connectors_account.py`.
The wire model is tolerant: an unknown facet reads as unclassified and one odd
tool never blanks a connector.
* feat(connectors): catalog, accounts and member tool rules by RPC
The Connectors page needs the app catalog, the connected account of one app,
a way to disconnect it, and the member's own on/off rules. None had an RPC.
- `connectors.catalog`: name, description, category and logo of each app.
- `connectors.accounts`, `connectors.accounts.remove`: read the accounts at
the tool gateway and remove one by id.
- `connectors.policy.get`: the rule layers that apply to the member, widest
first. The body is a union on `mode`, so a reader can name who turned a
tool off.
- `connectors.policy.set`: one change, a union on `type` (the tools of one
connector, or one connector on or off), with the revision the user saw. A
stale revision answers `POLICY_CONFLICT`. The backend composes the upstream
write in one pure function, so no renderer learns the upstream rules.
- Bundled MCP manifests can name their hosted twin with `connector:`, so the
page can show one card per app.
* feat(connectors): connect an app without a chat session
Every connector RPC took a `session_id`, and a connect that did not come from
the model's tool call minted a link with no watcher. The Connectors page has
no chat session, and its card must flip to connected by itself.
- `connectors.list`, `connectors.connect`, `connectors.operation.status`,
`connectors.operation.wake` and `connection.respond` take `owner`, a union
on `type`: `session` (today's behaviour and authorization) or `account`
(routed by `profile`, authorized by the live transport like `mcp.*`).
`session_id` is gone from these params; every desktop caller sends `owner`.
- An account connect runs the same operation lifecycle on a background
thread, under the profile's scope, so the watcher reads the account and
settles the operation. A second connect for an app that is already
connecting returns the open operation and mints nothing.
- `connection.update` carries `owner`. An account operation has no session to
address, so its updates go out on the session-less broadcast path.
* feat(mcp-catalog): eighteen more bundled entries name their hosted connector
A bundled MCP entry and a hosted connector for the same app are one card
on the Connectors page only when the manifest names its hosted twin.
Linear and Notion had the field. These entries get it too: airtable,
asana, attio, calendly, dropbox, figma, railway, supabase, todoist,
betterstack, canva, cloudflare, datadog, intercom, neon, sentry, stripe
and vercel. Atlassian maps to two hosted connectors and Prisma Postgres
is not clearly the same app, so both stay without one.
* refactor(connectors): the account handlers share one gate, one params model and one write table
The six account-level handlers each repeated the availability gate, the
auth catch and the catch-all reply. One decorator now owns that, and each
handler validates its params with its contract model instead of a ladder
of isinstance checks. The five connection RPCs share one guard for the
unexpected-failure reply.
The four write composers for the member rules were the same function
with a different list key and polarity. They are one table now.
The owner union lives in contracts/common.py, so the params side and the
event side stop declaring it twice and the import cycle is gone.
An account operation start carries one event and a flag, so the wait for
the sign-in link blocks instead of polling every 50 ms. run_operation
loses its two account-only parameters; drive_operation is the second
entry point.
Tests: four deleted (they exercised pydantic or the mock), three merged
into tables, two added (a client that still sends the old top-level
session_id is refused; all six account RPCs run off the server loop).
The shared reply helper and the HTTP and managed-client fakes move to
one place each. Comments are one line or gone.
* fix(connectors): a missing tool-list route reads as "unavailable", not "connector gone"
The tool-list read treated every 404 as the portal's "this connector is
not in the catalog" answer. It deleted the cache entry and answered
CONNECTOR_NOT_FOUND, so a page would offer to remove an app that is
connected and works. A portal that does not serve the route yet answers
a bare 404 for every app.
Only the portal's own {"error": "connector_not_found"} means the
connector is gone. Any other 404 is now a tool-list outage: the cached
list is served as stale, or the RPC answers TOOLS_UNAVAILABLE.
* fix(connectors): a connect from the page returns to the app after sign-in
The sign-in link carries a return target only when the session's surface
is the desktop. A chat session binds that surface. An account-owned call
has no chat session, so nothing bound it: the link was minted without a
return target and the browser ended on the portal's done page instead of
coming back to Hermes.
Every account-owned call now runs with the process's own surface bound,
next to its profile scope. The operation thread copies that context, so
the first link and every reissued link carry the return target and the
operation id.
* test(connectors): defer the new connector RPC coverage
The tests for the new account RPCs, the portal client, the tool-list cache
and the rule composer leave this PR and come back in one later change, after
the API is settled. The same was done for #111008.
Kept: the edits that existing tests need because the five connection RPCs
now take `owner` instead of `session_id`, and the rename of the managed
client seam.
Removed: six new test files, their two fakes and the gateway conftest, and
the new cases in test_mcp_catalog.py, test_connectors_gateway_client.py,
gateway-rpc.test.ts and notifications.test.ts. Reverting this commit restores
all of them.
* fix(cli): the connection panel hands the tool thread back at once
The classic CLI's connection callback waited on a queue for the user's first
decision. The operation's watcher starts only after the callback returns, and
the watcher is what polls a hosted account, runs the 300-second deadline and
sees Ctrl+C.
For a hosted connector the panel opens on the sign-in link, where the only
key that filled the queue was Cancel. The account was never polled: the user
signed in, the panel never changed, and Esc reported the app as skipped.
Ctrl+C set the interrupt flag but left the thread parked on the queue, so the
turn never ended.
The callback now opens the panel and returns, as the gateway's callback does
for the desktop and the Ink TUI. The panel's actions already reach the
operation through apply_answer on the UI thread, so the queue is removed. An
install with a form still waits for Connect, because the backend starts no
work for a pending row. Ctrl+C now settles the operation as `interrupt`, and
open rows become `not_connected`.
Checked on the e2e rig with the fake tool gateway: hosted connect completes on
the third status read; Ctrl+C ends the turn and the polling stops; an MCP
install with a plain and a secret field still saves config and both values.
* fix(connectors): "run it again" lives in the library, so the classic CLI can use it
Making a new sign-in link for a failed or expired hosted connector was
implemented only in the JSON-RPC layer (`_reissue`). The classic CLI does not
go through JSON-RPC: its Connect button on a failed row called apply_answer,
which does nothing for a hosted operation because it has no MCP runner. The
panel showed "Waiting…" until the deadline.
`tools.connectors.run.reissue(operation, names)` now holds the checks and the
per-kind action, and returns a refusal reason or None. The gateway maps each
reason to the same JSON-RPC error as before. The CLI calls it for a hosted
row; a refusal is shown on the row. MCP rows keep their path, because Connect
on a failed MCP row re-sends the form values.
Checked on the e2e rig: a scripted failed sign-in, then Connect: a second mint
with `reinitiate: true`, a new link with a new connection id, then connected.
* feat(connectors): the account list and disconnect go through the portal
`connectors.accounts` and `connectors.accounts.remove` called the tool
gateway. They now call the portal's account-management routes
(`GET /api/v1/connectors/accounts`, `DELETE /api/v1/connectors/accounts/{id}`),
which apply the organisation membership checks and write the disconnect audit
row. There is no fallback to the gateway when the portal is unavailable, and a
removal is never retried.
The read of ONE account stays on the gateway (`GET v1/connectors/accounts/{id}`):
the portal has no such route, and the operation watcher polls it once per second.
`ConnectorClient.list_accounts` and `delete_account` are removed. The removed
account's reply model carries `connector`, which both services send.
* fix(connectors): the account RPCs answer what the portal really sends
Checked against the portal source and against the staging and production
services.
- Errors are read from the upstream error code, not the HTTP status. A rule
write answered 409 for a stale revision and for a user with no organisation;
both read as "the policy changed". `org_required` is now `ORG_REQUIRED` and
403 `no_access` is `ORG_ACCESS_DENIED` on every account RPC; only a rejected
sign-in is `NEEDS_NOUS_AUTH`. `connectors.list` and `connectors.connect` with
the account owner map these too.
- `connectors.policy.get` and `connectors.policy.set` carry `effective`: the
portal's own result for this user, with its stamp and without provider or
subject ids. Nothing is recomputed locally.
- A rule write needs the revision the user saw: `expected_revision` is required
and must be a revision string; a bad one is refused before any HTTP call.
- A tool row carries `no_auth`; a list without the upstream flag is an invalid
answer, not `false`.
- `connectors.accounts.remove` returns the app of the removed account. An
invalid id is `INVALID_PARAMS`.
- The tool-list cache is per signed-in member (a hash of the token's `sub`),
so two Nous accounts on one profile do not share entries.
- A malformed slug is a local error, not a 404 from a server nobody called.
Live, staging: no revision and a malformed revision refused locally; a good
revision wrote one disabled Gmail tool and returned it in `effective`; the
same revision again answered `POLICY_CONFLICT`; the list row showed the tool;
the restore brought the member rules back to the start. Live, staging and
production, read-only: all 60 tool lists (5483 tools) parse.
* fix(connectors): the operation RPCs match their contract; a settled card cannot start a new link
Found by two adversarial reviews of the RPC layer and its types.
- `connectors.connect` from a chat session with no open operation is refused
(`UNKNOWN_OPERATION`). It used to call `manage_connections` through the tool
registry with no card: it made a link nobody watched, returned a reply
without the required `settled` field, and named an operation that was never
registered. There is one way into an operation: the agent's call, or the
account owner's `connectors.connect`. "Run it again" inside an open
operation is unchanged.
- `connection.update` for a session is routed by session key AND profile; two
profiles with the same key no longer cross-deliver a sign-in link. The event
payload gets the same redaction as the RPC replies.
- `connection.respond` runs on the long-handler pool: an approval can start MCP
OAuth discovery, which blocked every RPC of the gateway while it ran.
- `connectors.list` rows are a closed snake_case model: `connector`, `enabled`,
`connected`, `connection_status`, `status_reason`, `gateway_disabled_tools`.
The last one is display data: the gateway enforces the rules, the backend
only passes the list on. The phantom `name` and `description` are gone, and
the desktop uses the generated types instead of hand-written copies.
- `tools_listing` (model-only data) no longer rides on `connectors.operation.status`.
- `unavailable` is removed from the target states and settle reasons: nothing
produces it. The contract generator now fails when a contract enum and its
domain enum differ.
- `ConnectorErrorReason` is part of the generated TypeScript and OpenRPC.
- The desktop sends `connection.respond` on the socket that holds the session,
as wake and reissue already did.
- Contract violations are logged every time, at error level.
- An account connect whose prepare step is slow returns the live operation
instead of an error while the operation keeps running.
- The MCP-manifest `connector` field leaves this PR (it moves to a later one
on top of the catalog-reader change). `hermes_cli/mcp_catalog.py` and
`optional-mcps/` are untouched by this PR again.
anti-slop: no net-new findings (15 touched files).
* fix(connectors): the model gets no sign-in link wherever a card exists; side agents cannot connect
The flag that tells the model "a connection card exists" was the session
platform (`== "desktop"`). The Ink TUI and the classic CLI also draw a card,
so there a connector call on an unconnected app handed the model the raw
`connect_url` and told it to pass the link to the user.
- The agent turn now declares how a link can reach the user
(`tools/connectors/turn.py`): CARD when the agent was built with a
connection callback, SIDE for a subagent or a background turn, LINK for a
headless run (`-q`, cron, ACP, api_server, messaging). It is set once per
tool batch in the agent loop and read by the connector dispatch path, which
never sees the agent. The session platform decides return-to-app only.
- CARD: the result carries `connect_card_available` and our hint, never the
link and never the gateway's own hint.
- SIDE: subagents (`delegate_tool`), gateway background turns and the classic
CLI `/bg` are built with `side_agent=True`. They hold no `manage_connections`
tool on any path that derives the tool list, and a connector call on an
unconnected app gets no link, only "report this to the main agent".
- LINK is unchanged.
- The hosted path with no card builds a detached operation, as the MCP path
does, so no `connection.update` is emitted for an operation no client asked
for. Names and docstrings that said "off desktop" now say "no card".
- A settled card is dead on the desktop: `reissueConnectionTarget` and
`respondToConnectionRequest` share one guard and send nothing for a settled
or unknown operation.
- The model-facing settled result no longer carries `connection_id`; the model
repeated it to the user.
Shown on the real clients with a real model (rig, fake tool gateway): Ink TUI
and classic CLI get `connect_card_available` and no link, the model opens the
card, the account connects, the retried call succeeds; `-q` still gets the
link; a subagent and a background turn have no `manage_connections` and get
the no-link hint; on the desktop a card settled with Continue has no enabled
control and sends no RPC.
* feat(tools): every call made through tool_search + tool_call shows a real label on all three clients
A bridged call showed as a generic `tool_call` row in the Ink TUI and as
`⚡ tool_call` in the classic CLI, because the display looked the name up in
the tool registry and bridged names are made at run time. The desktop labelled
only batches that were all hosted connector calls, by parsing names itself.
- `tools/tool_labels.py` is the one place that turns a bridged call into a
label: kind, app, action, emoji and text. Hosted: `connectors__gmail__GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL`
→ "Gmail · send email". MCP: "Linear · list issues". A local deferred tool
keeps its own emoji, verb and primary-argument preview. A batch gets exactly
one label per entry, always; an entry with no name gets a generic label.
- Classic CLI: one row per inner call; the duration on the last row; the
failure text on the row of the call that failed. With friendly labels off
it prints what it printed before.
- Gateway: tool start, progress and complete events and stored transcript rows
carry a typed `labels` field. It does not depend on the classic CLI's
display setting. Clients no longer parse tool names.
- Ink TUI: rows from the labels; the verbose trail keeps Args and Result.
- Desktop: `ConnectorExecution` renders hosted, MCP and mixed turns from the
labels, one row per call. The labels reach the row under a key no tool
argument can use. The connect card it drew under a failed tool result is
gone: after `CONNECTION_REQUIRED` the one way in is the agent's own
`manage_connections` call.
- `tool_search` and `tool_describe` rows read "Searching tools · <query>" and
"Reading tool details · N tools".
Shown on the real desktop (video and screenshots), the Ink TUI and the classic
CLI with the rig: hosted rows, MCP rows, a two-entry batch, a failed entry, a
`CONNECTION_REQUIRED` row with no card under it, labels after a reload, and the
desktop rows with the classic CLI setting off.
* fix(connectors): the model can tell "hosted tools unavailable" from "no such tool"; manage_connections routes MCP names correctly
- A failed hosted search or describe used to return nothing, by design, so the
model saw only local tools and told the user that a connected app was
missing. The local results are unchanged; when the hosted leg failed, the
`tool_search` and `tool_describe` results carry
`connectors: {status: "unavailable", reason: "unreachable" | "sign_in_expired"}`
and one hint line. A rejected token is `sign_in_expired`; an entitlement
refusal or a shut gate adds nothing. `tool_describe` no longer lists those
names under `not_found` next to "search again".
- NS-932. The description now says which side a name belongs to: a bare name
is a hosted connector account; `mcp: true` only when the user asks for an MCP
server, a local server or an install, or when the name exists only in the
catalog; connect and reconnect are hosted verbs, install, enable and
authorize are MCP verbs. It names the three clients that draw a card.
- A misrouted target is refused with the call that works. Only when the
gateway does not know the connector (confirmed on that failure path) and the
name is a catalog entry does the target fail with "X is a local MCP server.
Call manage_connections with action install ...". It is a per-target
outcome: other targets of the same call keep their links and their card. A
vendor failure on a name both sides know stays an ordinary failed row. The
MCP side mirrors it, and never for an entry that is only not installed.
- "Do not re-ask after a skip or a timeout" no longer stops the model when the
USER asks for that app again; the description and the settled-result notes
say so. A builder saw the model refuse a direct user request.
Shown on the Ink TUI and the classic CLI with a real model: a dead gateway and
a 401; "connect fxmail" goes hosted; "install the fx-noauth MCP server" goes
MCP; "connect fx-noauth" reaches the MCP install card in one corrective round
with no hosted mint; a two-target call where one is misrouted still connects
the other with exactly one mint.
* fix(tui): the connection card answers every key, shows what is happening, and is dead once settled
Reproduced on the real Ink TUI with the rig, then fixed:
- The keyboard was dead during the sign-in wait: the card kept a `submitting`
flag that the normal OAuth path never cleared, and Esc went through the same
guard. The in-flight state now belongs to the answered row and clears when
that row moves, when any later frame of the operation arrives, or after
five seconds. Esc skips the row in every phase; Ctrl+C interrupts the turn
(the input handler had no branch for this overlay); Shift+arrows scroll the
transcript and the card ignores them; arrow keys no longer move the text
cursor and the field focus at once.
- The card was lost at turn idle: the overlay flag was cleared while the
operation stayed in the store, and a resume dropped the pending card. The
flag survives idle, a resume shows the pending card again, a session switch
clears it.
- States with no branch: `not_connected` and a row with no link fell into the
credential form; `expired` vanished with no note. The title and the row text
now name the action (connect, reconnect, install, enable, authorize); a
failed or expired row with no fields offers Try again / Skip; a failed row
WITH fields reopens the form over the typed draft, with the failure above it.
- A settled card is dead: at settle the overlay closes and one transcript line
per app states the outcome. A settled or dismissed operation id is
remembered, so no replay or resume can reopen its card. Esc in the last
"Finishing…" moment hides the card and still writes the outcome lines.
- A failed `connection.respond` and a browser that did not open are shown on
the card in one sentence.
Also: `tui_gateway/connector_payload.py` redacted the BOOLEAN `secret` flag of
a credential field to the string "[REDACTED]". On the desktop every credential
field therefore rendered as a password and lost its prefilled default. A
boolean is no longer redacted.
* chore(connectors): remove the comments and docstrings this branch added
Deletions only. Kept: tool directives (`# noqa`, `// eslint-disable`, ...),
`// SAFETY:` lines, and the docstrings of the contract models under
`tui_gateway/contracts/`, which become the descriptions in the generated
OpenRPC and TypeScript.
Checked that no code changed: every Python file has the same AST as before
once docstrings and `pass` are ignored (62 files), and every TypeScript file
prints the same with comments stripped by the TypeScript printer (32 files).
The generated contract files are unchanged.
* fix(connectors): a card restored after a reload answers again; every account RPC names auth and org failures
Found by the end-to-end runs on the pushed head.
- Desktop: after a window reload, Continue on the restored card sent nothing.
The answer looked up the backend that holds the session with the runtime
session id, the lookup wants the stored id, and a failed lookup returned
silently. When the lookup gives no owner the answer now goes out on the
window's active socket, which is what main does.
- `connectors.policy.get` answered `POLICY_UNAVAILABLE` for a rejected sign-in,
a refused scope, a non-member and a missing organisation alike: the handler
runs with the gateway's globals and did not import the reason enum, so its
own error mapping raised. `connectors.accounts.remove` caught auth failures
in its generic branch. `org_required` was mapped on `policy.set` only. All
six account RPCs now answer `NEEDS_NOUS_AUTH`, `FORBIDDEN_SCOPE`,
`ORG_ACCESS_DENIED` and `ORG_REQUIRED` for those four upstream answers.
* wip(desktop): port the Connectors tab files and wiring onto the #115191 head
* wip(desktop): Connectors tab on the #115191 contract, catalog arm removed, audit defects fixed
* wip(desktop): Connectors tab passes the anti-slop ratchet; dormant two-ways code and the Available collapse removed
* wip(mcp): every server row says whether config or a plugin provides it; writes refuse plugin rows
* wip(desktop): Connectors tab, the owner's first live round (custom MCP form, kind words, compact dialog)
* wip(desktop): the connector dialog fits its content
* wip(desktop): catalog MCPs show on the Connectors tab until the catalog dies; connector_slug pairs a manifest with its managed app; the closed-gate state
* wip(desktop): connectors cache v3, the seed shape gained connector_slug
* wip(desktop): the owner's answers on the connectors page
A plugin-provided server now shows its tool list: the dialog probes it
through the existing read-only test endpoint, shows the tools without
switches (the plugin owns them), and shows the probe's error with a
Retry when the server cannot start. Its card is named after the server
key in the plugin's mcp.json, not the namespaced runtime key.
The paste box no longer parses `--header` on a `hermes mcp add` line;
the CLI has no such flag.
The rule write sends the member layer's revision only. The portal
always returns a member layer (baseline revision when no row exists)
and compares the write against that row, so the effective revision was
never the right guess. Verified live on staging: two writes in a row,
both accepted, policy restored.
The page cache keeps every read for signed-in accounts too and only
clears itself when the account is signed out. The storage version moves
to v4 so old blobs are ignored.
* chore(desktop): strip the prose comments the connectors page branch added
Comments and docstrings this branch added relative to main are gone;
tool directives, SAFETY lines and the contract docstrings that feed the
generated OpenRPC stay. Guards: Python AST and TypeScript printer output
are identical before and after; ruff, tsc, eslint, the ratchet and the
generated contracts are unchanged.
A plugin manifest's `config_schema` now reaches the Desktop: `plugins.manage list`
returns each plugin's schema with the current `plugins.entries.<id>.settings`
values (`settings_schema`), and a new `settings` action writes edits through
`hermes_cli.plugins_state.save_plugin_setting` — the writer extracted from
`PluginContext.set_config`, so the plugin, the CLI and the Desktop share one
config path, one lock and the same managed-install / managed-key refusals.
The Plugins tab grows a gear per plugin with a schema; the inline form is
table-driven (`FIELD_CONTROLS` / `INITIAL_TEXT` / `COERCE` keyed on the wire
field type) for string / number / boolean / enum / json / secret. Secrets are
declared with `type: secret`: the row carries only the `.env` name and a
presence flag, the client writes the value through the existing `PUT /api/env`
credential route, and the RPC refuses secret keys so nothing lands in
config.yaml.
Contracts regenerated; docs gain a "Settings form in the Desktop" section.
Annotated-tag pins (F8): a catalog `sha` recorded as `git rev-parse <tag>` names
the TAG object, while HEAD can only ever be the commit it points at. The scan
trust check compared HEAD against the unpeeled sha (so every tag-pinned entry
lost the reviewed-pin bypass and prompted on caution findings) and the sidecar
recorded the peeled commit, so `update_available` was true forever and every
`update` re-installed. The installer now peels the pin (`<sha>^{commit}`) for
trust, records `pin` on the catalog block only when the checkout satisfies it
(empty for an off-pin `--ref` install), and every at-pin check goes through
`at_catalog_pin(sidecar, entry_sha)` (repin, dashboard payload, TUI rows).
Re-pin consent (F10): `hermes plugins update` on a catalog install replaced the
tree without asking, even when the new pin declared new tools, hooks, Python
dependencies, host capabilities or a Desktop half. `repin_catalog_plugin` now
diffs the installed manifest against the staged clone BEFORE anything moves
(`_install_plugin_core(before_swap=...)`) and, on a widening:
- CLI: prints the delta and asks y/N (non-interactive → not applied, fail
closed); after a changed re-pin it runs the same `_run_capability_consent`
grant path as the git-pull `update`.
- `plugins.manage update` RPC and the dashboard REST route answer
`{ok: false, consent_required: true, delta, delta_lines}` with nothing
changed; a retry with `accept_capabilities: true` applies it. Desktop shows
the delta in its confirm dialog; the web dashboard uses `window.confirm`.
- Gateway contract regenerated (`accept_capabilities` param; `consent_required`,
`delta`, `delta_lines`, `error` result fields).
Catalog audit findings F8 and F10 (low severity, no issue filed).
Salvage of #66777 (@chrisyoung2005): the dashboard toggle toast now says a restart is needed
(#71595). Moved the ``restart_required`` stamp from a dashboard router wrapper into
dashboard_set_agent_plugin_enabled so the ``plugins.manage`` RPC (TUI/Desktop) carries it too;
contract + generated TS regenerated. The salvaged endpoint tests stubbed the toggle they were
checking — replaced by invariant tests that run the real commands against a temp HERMES_HOME
(all red on origin/main): platform disable gates the loader, alias toggle writes the canonical
key, status honours bundled defaults + memory.provider, remove forgets config / resets
memory.provider / unlinks a symlink only, disabled memory provider is not loaded.
test_deferred_platform_client_tools: bundled a2a is keyed ``platforms/a2a`` now.
Symptoms fixed (all live-reproduced on origin/main in a fake HERMES_HOME):
- `hermes plugins disable photon-platform` wrote `platforms/photon` while the loader keyed the
bundled adapter `photon-platform`, so the disable never applied (#27548). The loader now keys
bundled platforms `platforms/<dir>` like every other category (one call site in
plugins_discovery.py); the manifest name stays an accepted alias through gate_manifest.
- `plugins.manage toggle` / dashboard toggle wrote the raw identifier: enabling by bare leaf or
manifest name returned ok while a stale canonical key in plugins.disabled kept the plugin off.
dashboard_set_agent_plugin_enabled resolves the canonical key and purges every alias from the
opposing list (shared _activate_key, also used by cmd_enable/cmd_disable); the RPC reports the key.
- remove/uninstall (CLI, dashboard, RPC) left the plugin in plugins.enabled/disabled and
plugins.entries (#54336), left memory.provider dangling so the next agent init re-cloned the
provider from the catalog (uninstall silently reverted), and, for a symlink inside the plugins
dir, deleted the TARGET plugin and its metadata while the link stayed dangling. _remove_user_plugin
is the shared tail: unlink a link only, then forget config under every alias and reset
memory.provider (reported as cleared_memory_provider).
- `hermes plugins list` / dashboard hub / TUI hub called bundled backends, bundled platforms and the
live memory.provider "not enabled" (#73131, #82898): _plugin_status mirrors gate_manifest.
- A user-installed memory provider parked in plugins.disabled kept loading: load_memory_provider
honours the deny-list (name, dir name or manifest name) and says so once.
TUI/Desktop sibling of #108698: `command.dispatch` and `slash.exec` ran a plugin
command handler on the RPC thread with only HERMES_HOME/cwd bound
(`_session_home_scope`), never the session vars, so `get_session_env()` inside the
handler returned "" or the launch process's inherited values. `_run_plugin_command`
now wraps the handler in the turn path's own `_set_session_context` /
`_clear_session_context` for the invoking session; both call sites pass it. These
RPCs already run off the loop, so the #105279 half does not apply here.
Test red on base: `assert '' == 'agent:tui:key-p'`.
Catalog trust bugs from the 2026-09-21 plugin audit (lane 3, F1-F6, F9):
- F1 (high): a URL-installed repo shipping its own .hermes-catalog.json rendered
as catalog:official everywhere and marked the real entry "installed". Provenance
now lives on the installer-owned .install-metadata.json record (catalog block
written by _install_plugin_core, sha = checked-out commit); read_catalog_sidecar
never reads the tree. Pre-fix installs are adopted once when the installer
record agrees (pinned at the sidecar sha, cloned from the entry's repo).
- F2: removed.yaml bypassed by git@/ssh:///http:///www. spellings. _normalize_repo
canonicalises to host/owner/repo (scheme, user, www., .git, slashes dropped).
- F6: removed.yaml consulted for INSTALLED plugins too: git-pull update, enable and
gate_manifest (load) refuse recalled plugins, offline (in-tree + cached live
list). --allow-removed is recorded on the install record and exempts it.
- F5: install NAME --ref X recorded the catalog pin, so list/TUI/update claimed
the reviewed pin while HEAD differed. Recorded sha is the checked-out one.
- F3: re-pin replaced the whole tree, losing the installer-created config.yaml,
data and user patches with no warning. Untracked/ignored files are carried
into the new tree; edits to tracked files are copied to
<HERMES_HOME>/plugins-backup/<name>-<sha8>/ with a warning.
- F4: a manifest rename between pins left the OLD dir installed and enabled.
The stale dir is removed and the enabled flag follows the new name.
- F9: dashboard payload `removed` list now includes live removals.
repin_catalog_plugin returns RepinResult(sha, changed, installed_name, warnings);
CLI, dashboard and TUI callers surface the warnings and the new name.
The Desktop Plugins hub had no uninstall door: the plugins.manage RPC
only offered list/toggle/install/update, so a plugin installed from the
hub could only be removed from the CLI or the dashboard. Add a remove
action that reuses hermes_cli.plugins_cmd.dashboard_remove_user_plugin
(the same core as hermes plugins remove: deletes the tree and its
install metadata atomically, refuses bundled plugins and paths outside
the plugins dir), and regenerate the shared wire contract.
Branch semantics kept where main and PM disagree: update_cmd_deps.py,
constraints-termux.txt, the Electron update-api-check module and the
post-swap hand-off test stay deleted; the pending-fleet-restart catch-up
and the local_runtime tag/download ladder stay retired (PM owns engines).
Ported from main onto the branch's shape: profile_scoped_chore for the
auto-archive and plugin-update housekeeping chores, the local-runtime
cross-process boot lock and residency cap, the checkpoint tmp_pack sweep,
the cua daemon-liveness status probe, the remote-served Desktop update
flag (posix.sh / windows.ps1), sign-in for env-pinned remote gateways
(urlDisabled on RemoteSetupFields), the uvloop extra split (uvicorn
without [standard]), and the umask-scoping spawn test.
uv.lock regenerated with pm.build_env --lock-only; new utf-8 reads from
main switched to utf-8-sig (check-windows-footguns).
A skill whose name collides with a built-in command produced a collision
note that overwrote a quick_commands / plugin discovery failure already in
`warning`, so a broken config.yaml was silently reported as a mere name
collision. Failures now win; the collision note only fills an otherwise
empty warning. `_catalog_skills` still runs unconditionally so skills keep
listing when a loader failed.
A skill whose slug is a core command name or alias (e.g. a skill dir named
`handoff` or `plan`) is deliberately kept out of slash auto-registration —
370ebf2d3 ("guard skill slash commands against core-command and slug
collisions"): the skill map is consulted before built-in handlers in the
gateway dispatch path, so an auto /handoff would shadow the core command.
That guard stays. What users saw until now was only a WARNING in agent.log
repeated every session; the skill sat in `/skills list` as "enabled" with no
hint why `/handoff` ran the built-in instead (#113560).
Now one helper, agent.skill_commands.skill_command_collision_note, is the
single collision predicate: scan_skill_commands() uses it for the skip, and
four surfaces render the note it returns —
"slash command /<name> unavailable — name taken by built-in; use /skill <name>"
- hermes_cli/skills_hub.py::do_list — the Status cell of `/skills list` /
`hermes skills list`
- hermes_cli/cli_info_mixin.py::show_help — one dim ⚠ line per colliding
skill under `/help skills` (also when no skill command is registered)
- tui_gateway/methods_tools.py::_catalog_skills — the commands.catalog RPC
carries the notice in its existing `warning` field (rendered by the Desktop
`/commands` output); discovery-failure messages still win over it
- hermes_cli/slash_exec.py::_exec_commands — the messaging-gateway `/commands`
listing (Telegram/Discord/…) appends one ⚠ line per colliding skill
Fixes#113560
The TUI/Desktop `/rollback diff <hash>` RPC still ran `mgr.diff(host_cwd, hash)`, which
stages the HOST working tree against a host checkpoint and presents it as the container
session's diff — the same operation `/rollback diff` and `/diff session` already refuse on
the CLI and messaging gateway. Refuse it with the same `unsupported_backend_reason`, via the
RPC error (what the TUI's `.catch(guardedErr)` already renders); `rollback.list` stays.
The backend-classification block moves into `_container_checkpoint_refusal` so restore and
diff share it. The docs sentence claiming `rollback.diff` remained available is corrected.
With a container terminal backend (docker, singularity, modal, daytona,
vercel_sandbox, container plugins) file-tool paths keep container semantics,
but the checkpoint hook handed them to the host-side CheckpointManager: a path
that does not exist on the host produced a useless snapshot attempt, one that
happens to exist on the host snapshotted the wrong tree, the destructive
terminal branch did the same with the container cwd, and the post-write ledger
hashed the container path on the host so safe restore could trust unrelated
host content. Every failure was swallowed, so a docker user saw "No checkpoints
found for /home/admin" with nothing behind it.
Classify the task's backend the way the file tools do (_uses_container_paths)
and, for container-backed tasks, take no checkpoint and record no ledger entry;
/rollback prints the reason and refuses diff and restore for that session (a
host checkpoint that predates it belongs to another tree), and the
rollback.restore RPC returns the same reason as a failed restore. The refusal
classifies the session's configured backend directly (in the gateway under the
session's own identity and profile scope, as a turn binds them), so it holds
before the first mutation of the session. Local and ssh backends are untouched. This stops the
false protection; it does not add rollback support for containers (translating
bind mounts is a separate contract).
Tests: eight cases in tests/agent/test_tool_executor_checkpoint_paths.py through
the production classifier (a fake docker environment registered for the task, or
the configured backend): missing host path, colliding host tree (POSIX),
destructive terminal command, post-write ledger on a real host file, /rollback
and rollback.restore refusal in a fresh session, the local session still
restoring, and unchanged local behavior. Five fail on main on Windows, where the
collision case is skipped.

(cherry picked from commit 97a5709e4980c8f85a5a640e6e5e11fe8f94affa)
`_do_full_reload` ran the launch profile's rediscovery unscoped and the rescue loop
(`homes - {None}`) rescued secondaries only. Once the process multiplexes, the launch
profile's stdio servers resolve connect-time credentials through `get_secret`, which
fails closed: every one of them parked with UnscopedSecretError while the RPC still
answered "reloaded" (#113746, second entry point). The launch profile is a profile too:
bind `_session_profile_runtime_scope({"profile_home": None})` — the launch_secret_scope
path (`.env` over the env frozen at activation, so a systemd / op-run injected key keeps
resolving) — around the shutdown/discover passes, like every other launch-profile RPC body.
`command.dispatch` and `commands.catalog` resolve project-local skills for the
session's repo, but the '/' completion popup (`complete.slash`) and
`/reload-skills` (`skills.reload`) still ran `get_skill_commands()` /
`reload_skills()` unbound on the RPC thread, where `find_project_root()`
resolves the launch env ($HOME). The popup never offered `/<project-skill>`
even though dispatch accepted it, and a reload right after dispatching one
reported it under "Removed skills" with "0 skill(s) available" and
republished a registry without it.
Both handlers now run inside `_session_home_scope(session, cwd=_completion_cwd(params))`
like the catalog; `CompleteSlashParams` / `SkillsReloadParams` gain an optional
`session_id` (contracts regenerated). One invariant test covers popup + reload
for two sessions in two repos (red on the previous head: popup skill items `[]`).
TUI/desktop RPC handlers (commands.catalog, command.dispatch, slash.exec's
skill routing guard) run on the socket thread with no session context; the
terminal scope (and gateway.run's import-time bridge) resolve a placeholder
terminal.cwd to $HOME, so project skills under <repo>/.hermes/skills never
registered and `/<name>` failed with "not a quick/plugin/bundle/skill
command" even though the session's workspace was the repo (#114359).
- tui_gateway/methods_tools.py: _session_home_scope also binds the session's
cwd (runtime_cwd.set_session_cwd) for the block; commands.catalog binds the
calling session's workspace (_completion_cwd: its record, else the cwd a
new session would be seeded with) around skill discovery.
- agent/skill_commands.py: the cached registry is tagged by project root too,
so two sessions in two repos in one process each see their own skills
instead of the first scan's.
- agent/runtime_cwd.py: reset_session_cwd(token) twin for set_session_cwd.
The multiplex guarantee from 9c9e7ab6e5 is untouched: a served profile's
turn still resolves ITS scope cwd, and the process cwd is only ever the last
fallback; the session cwd that now wins is the session's own workspace.

Reconcile plugin declarations and validation through PM's atomic generation publication; preserve external runtimes, target markers, and conflict refusal. Keep one source-update completion owner and port upstream lifecycle changes to the PM desktop/runtime paths.
The 40-hex sha stays the release, but nobody reads one. Entries may now add
`version: "1.4.0"` (free-form, <=32 chars, never parsed) and `image:` (an https
URL on raw.githubusercontent.com / github.com / *.githubusercontent.com).
Why GitHub-only: the Desktop catalog browser deliberately never fetches from
third-party hosts, and a raw URL pinned to the entry commit is as immutable as
the sha it decorates.
Readers updated together: PluginCatalogEntry + entry_from_mapping (drop with a
warning, entry survives), validate_plugin_catalog.py (admission error), the
site extractor (drop, never fatal), the /docs/plugins card (banner + version
pill + "1.4.0 @ abcd1234" pin), the CLI table/info (pin_label), the TUI-gateway
plugin row (catalog_version -> Desktop "Update to 1.4.0"), and the Desktop
catalog detail header (image).
Squashed integration of the user-facing message audit for this surface set.
Full per-finding receipts: /tmp/ux-audit/lanes/*-receipt.md (campaign artifacts).
`hermes serve` / the Desktop backend hosted many profile homes (session
profile_home, the `profile` RPC param, hosted rooms) but never called
agent.secret_scope.set_multiplex_active, so every unscoped get_secret read for
a secondary silently returned the LAUNCH profile's os.environ value, and
@_profile_scoped bound only HERMES_HOME: `config.get full` for profile B
expanded B's `${VAR}` refs to the default profile's plaintext credentials,
model.options listed the default's env-keyed providers, llm.oneshot billed the
default's auxiliary key.
- tui_gateway/launch_profile_policy.py (was launch_terminal_policy.py): the
first time _profile_home registers a non-launch home the process freezes
the launch env and flips get_secret to fail closed
(activate_multi_profile_hosting); launch_secret_scope composes the launch
profile's .env + external sources over that frozen env so systemd / op-run
injection survives the flip while a secondary never sees it.
- model_switch._profile_runtime_scope_tokens is the ONE composer for
home + secret + terminal scope: a named profile binds its own files; the
launch profile binds its frozen-env scope once multiplexing is active and
stays unscoped in a single-profile process (legacy os.environ precedence).
_profile_scoped, _profile_scoped_rpc, _session_profile_runtime_scope,
_bind_build_profile_scopes and _prepare_turn_input all go through it.
- Hosted-room / Group Chat turns for a DEFAULT-profile member in a
`multiplex_profiles: true` gateway no longer die at agent build with
UnscopedSecretError: `profile_home is None` was treated as "no scope"
in _start_agent_build._build and _prepare_turn_input.
- llm.oneshot runs under the session's (or params.profile's) scope;
_lap_builtin_rows / _overlay_has_creds / _provider_has_credentials read
provider keys through _scoped_key_env instead of raw os.environ;
methods_groups._profile_execution_policy resolves the hosted-room policy
(which reads provider credentials) under the profile's full scope.
Live repro (real `hermes serve`, two homes, config.get {key: full, profile: b}):
base a_ref: <A_VALUE> b_ref: ${B_ONLY_TOKEN} env_ref: <ENV_INJECTED>
head a_ref: ${A_ONLY_TOKEN} b_ref: <B_VALUE> env_ref: ${ENV_INJECTED_TOKEN}
Control (one home, --single): launch config still resolves env_ref from os.environ.
The oauth.callback handler parsed `iss` but never passed it to deliver_callback_flow, and McpOauthCallbackParams (extra="forbid") had no `iss` field, so the desktop renderer sending `iss: null` was rejected with 4000 "unknown key" — breaking every Desktop→remote-gateway MCP OAuth login. Add the field, forward it, and regenerate the OpenRPC/TS contract artifacts via scripts/gen_gateway_contracts.py.
Also update tests/hermes_cli/test_mcp_dashboard_oauth.py for the 3-tuple callback shape introduced by the cherry-picked commit (it was red on the stack).
mcp 2.x rejects an authorization response that omits the RFC 9207 `iss`
parameter when the authorization server advertised
`authorization_response_iss_parameter_supported`. Cloudflare advertises it
AND sends it; the CLI loopback handler has always forwarded it, but every
other callback producer parsed only code/state/error, so the SDK raised:
OAuthFlowError: Authorization response missing iss parameter
advertised by the authorization server
and the server parked. Same machine, same config, `hermes mcp login <name>`
from a terminal succeeded — the failure is specific to the non-CLI relays.
Forward `iss` on every producer, matching `_make_callback_handler()`:
- tools/mcp_dashboard_oauth.py: `deliver_callback()` accepts `iss`;
`wait_for_callback()` returns `(code, state, iss)`. The bridge in
tools/mcp_oauth.py already splats that tuple into
`_authorization_code_result(code, state, iss)`, so it needs no change.
- tui_gateway/mcp_oauth_sessions.py: the gateway-hosted loopback listener
parses `iss`, and `deliver_callback_flow()` forwards it.
- tui_gateway/methods_tools.py: the `oauth.callback` RPC passes `iss`.
- hermes_cli/web_routers/mcp.py: the dashboard callback route accepts it.
- apps/desktop/electron/mcp-oauth-callback-ipc.ts: the one-shot listener
reads `iss` off the redirect (the renderer already spreads the whole
callback object into the RPC, so it flows through unchanged).
Providers that omit `iss` round-trip as `None`/`null` rather than being
dropped, so servers that do not advertise RFC 9207 keep working.
Verified live on Windows against mcp.cloudflare.com, whose metadata sets
`authorization_response_iss_parameter_supported: true`: the server that
previously parked on the missing-iss error now reports
`Authenticated — 3452 tool(s) available` and `hermes mcp test cloudflare`
connects. State-mismatch and replay rejection are unchanged.
Tests (each fails on base, passes with the fix):
- test_dashboard_flow_preserves_rfc9207_iss
- test_deliver_callback_forwards_iss (client-redirect relay)
- test_loopback_listener_forwards_iss (real HTTP redirect)
- two vitest cases on the Electron listener, incl. the iss-absent case
Refs #92758, #99984. PR #92765 fixes the dashboard route and the loopback
listener but not the client-redirect relay
(`deliver_callback_flow` / `oauth.callback` / the Electron listener), which
is the path Desktop drives against a remote backend.
