Extend the salvaged regression test so it asserts the exact invariant from
#114048 rather than only "a replay happens": socket 3 asks for
last_seen=1, a live seq=3 racing that replay is parked by the NEW hold
(watermark stays at 1 until the gap is recovered), and the final order is
[1, 2, 3] with the watermark at 3. On origin/main this fails at the first
assertion (no replay is sent on socket 3 because the stale flag is still
set), which is the reporter's observed `replayOnThird: []`.
Build on #114129 (@KoNit-K), which carries a Desktop-generated large-paste
preview from the composer through `prompt.submit` -> `display_metadata` ->
turn context -> the shared title input. Two gaps closed:
- `apply_instant_title` never received the preview, so the instant title of a
paste-only opener was the generated `@file:` path — and stayed that way,
because the upgrade thread's `derive_title` fallback writes `derived`
provenance, which never replaces the `derived` title already stored.
Thread the hint into the instant stage too.
- `build_title_input` let the `@file:` ref lead when the opener was nothing
but the generated attachment ref; the preview now leads for a ref-only
opener (an instruction still leads when the user typed one).
- `prompt.submit` gains `title_preview` in the contract (regenerated shared
TS/OpenRPC); documented as title-only input in the configuration guide.
- Tests trimmed to two invariants (shared input reaches both stages; budget +
manual attachments stay unread).
Build on #114643 (@KoNit-K): the renderer now keys the live overlay on an
authoritative owner map, but that map was derived from the overview tree's
`previewSessions` (capped at 3) plus hydrated lanes (empty in overview mode),
so any owned row beyond the preview window still fell back to the cwd walk
and re-appeared under an ancestor project.
- `projects.tree` nodes now carry `sessionIds`: every row `build_tree`
assigned to the project (contract + regenerated shared TS/OpenRPC).
- `projectOwnerBySessionId` reads `sessionIds` first, keeping the row-derived
fallback for a backend that predates the field.
- `index.tsx` imports the helper the pick referenced (typecheck failed on
the contributor head) and tolerates an undefined tree.
- Tests: the exact issue layout (/work explicit, /work/repos/app explicit,
cwd=/work/repos/app-2) with git_repo_root null AND populated; the entered
ancestor gets nothing, the entered repo shows the linked-worktree lane, a
row the tree does not know still lands by cwd; the backend keeps the
claimed set complete in overview mode.
`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 `[]`).
Item 2 of #112548: a Desktop/dashboard build that predates server→client
requests has no response path, so every clarify/approval/sudo/secret/vault/
connection/bridge request sat for the full deadline (clarify: 300s). Only the
tour probed. Clients now advertise once per connection
(`client.capabilities {server_requests: true}`, sent by the shared TypeScript
channel on `gateway.ready`); `send()` / `send_async()` return the
error-response shape (None) at once when every WebSocket peer of the session
is a build that never advertised. Sessions with no client attached still wait
so the reconnect replay (`open_requests`) keeps working; the stdio TUI ships
with the backend and is not gated. The advertisement is dropped on disconnect.
Reviewer minors from #113227:
- tools/approval_gateway_wait.py: the verdict is the choice committed under
the approval lock while leaving the queue, so an /approve that lands after
the deadline check but before the entry is dropped is an answer, not a
timeout (the client was already acked "ok").
- tests/tui_gateway/test_protocol.py: the error-fails-fast test that only
restated pre-existing behaviour is replaced by the two capability
invariants (never advertised → fails fast; advertised → frame written,
waits, forgotten on disconnect).
- server_requests.send try/finally around event.wait already landed on main
(4371ed34a9); nothing to change.
Docs: programmatic-integration.md (advertise once per connection; method
list), tui_gateway/AGENTS.md; contracts regenerated.
dispatchServerRequest hand-rolled request.fail(JSON_RPC_METHOD_NOT_FOUND,
'Hermes Desktop has no server-request registry yet'), but the channel already
owns that reply: JsonRpcRequestChannel.deliverRequest answers -32601 and fires
onUnhandledRequest when a ServerRequestHandler returns false, and
GatewayBootOptions.handleServerRequest already documents "false = no handler
(the channel answers -32601)".
Make dispatchServerRequest return false when the registry has no
onServerRequest and true after forwarding; dispatchPrimaryServerRequest and
both gateway.onRequest registrations (store/gateway.ts secondary sockets,
use-gateway-boot.ts primary) now propagate that value to the channel. Keep
the desktop-specific wording by wiring onUnhandledRequest on HermesGateway
beside the onRequestHandlerError sink (console.warn), which needs the same
GatewayClientOptions passthrough onRequestHandlerError got. Drop the now
unused JSON_RPC_METHOD_NOT_FOUND import from the store and export
JSON_RPC_INTERNAL_ERROR from the shared barrel beside it.
Test: the store test asserts the false return with no fail() call when the
registry is missing, and true + forwarded profile when it is present.
Follow-ups (same class, outside this stack): use-gateway-boot.ts ~L889-891
still hand-rolls -32601 when the registry is present but has no handler;
ui-tui has its own copy.
The deliverRequest catch branch wrote to a module-level console.error sink
(the only direct console.* in apps/shared/src) and fired onUnhandledRequest,
whose contract is "nobody handled it, already answered -32601" — so the TUI
logged a -32603 crash as "unhandled server request".
Add onRequestHandlerError(error, request) to JsonRpcRequestChannelOptions
beside onHeartbeatFailure, call it from the catch after answering -32603,
and drop the console sink. Wire both owners: HermesGateway (desktop, via a
GatewayClientOptions passthrough) logs to console.error like its dial-failure
sink; ui-tui gatewayClient pushes a [protocol] log line. Collapse the two
normalisation arms into the existing `error instanceof Error ? … : new
Error(String(error))` idiom and restore the early `return true` instead of
the handled flag + break — nothing runs after the loop but the -32601
fallthrough.
Test: the crash case now asserts onRequestHandlerError fires once for the
-32603 request and onUnhandledRequest only for the -32601 one.
Follow-up to the salvage of #112791.
- json-rpc-gateway.ts: revert the try/catch around `channel.handleFrame`
to main. deliverRequest is the single chokepoint that dispatches into
feature handlers and now answers -32603 itself; a second catch in the
socket listener is defense-in-depth that would also hide bugs in event
and response handling that should surface as uncaught errors.
- store/gateway.ts: the primary and secondary dispatch sites carried the
same copy-pasted "no registry -> fail -32601" block. Fold both into one
file-local `dispatchServerRequest(request, profile, connectionId)`.
The secondary keeps main's tagging (its own connectionId, no fallback
to the active connection), which the contributor's version changed.
A clarify request renders as an eternal spinner when anything in the
renderer's handler chain throws: deliverRequest had no error handling,
the WS message listener let the exception escape as an uncaught error,
and both dispatch sites silently no-oped via optional chaining when the
registry was absent. In every case the backend (clarify_tool blocks up
to 3600s) never receives any frame — no result, no error — and waits
out its whole deadline.
- json-rpc-channel: wrap each handler invocation; a crash now answers
-32603 ("server request handler crashed: <method>"), fires the
onUnhandledRequest hook, logs the stack, and stops. The unhandled
path still answers -32601.
- json-rpc-gateway: guard the socket message listener so no frame can
escape as an uncaught error.
- store/gateway (primary + secondary wiring): missing registry now
fails the request immediately with -32601 instead of dropping it.
Backend already handles {"error"} response frames
(tui_gateway/server_requests.resolve_response), so fail-fast answers
settle the tool at once; no backend change needed.
Regression test drives boom→-32603, unknown→-32601, and a working
request after the crash.
A named profile with no credentials of its own silently resolved the root
profile's provider state and credential pool, and a token refresh inside
that profile (xAI, Codex, Anthropic PKCE, Nous) wrote the rotated chain back
into the root store. An isolated service profile therefore acted, and
rotated tokens, as the owner with no way to switch it off.
Maintainer ruling: profiles without credentials are asked to set a provider,
never handed another profile's auth. Profiles are independent islands.
What changes
- `hermes_cli/auth.py`: `_load_provider_state*`, `read_credential_pool` and
`_provider_state_transaction` read the active store only; the global-root
resolver, its mtime memo and `_persist_provider_state_to_store` are gone.
- xAI / Codex / Nous-guest / pool refresh paths persist to the active store;
the root write-through, the borrowed-row bookkeeping
(`_borrowed_root_ids`, `persist_pool_entries`, `_update_root_pool_rows`)
and the forked-grant heal are removed. `_write_hermes_oauth_credentials`
loses its root `target`.
- `resolve_provider` / `agent_init` name the profile in the
no-provider error and print `hermes -p <name> model` guidance.
- `hermes update` prints a one-time notice listing every named profile that
has no provider of its own (`hermes_cli/profile_credential_audit.py`) so a
bot never goes quiet unannounced.
- Desktop create dialog: the "Share keys & accounts" checkbox described the
removed inheritance; it now mirrors API keys (`mirror_credentials`) and
says OAuth logins need a sign-in. `share_auth` is accepted from older
clients and ignored; `ProfileMirrored.auth` is a bool again.
- Docs: profiles.md, multi-profile-gateways.md isolation table,
hermes_cli/AGENTS.md.
The fallback was added in 33bf5f62 so kanban/cron workers under a named
profile did not die with "No LLM provider configured" when the credential
lived only at root; that convenience is exactly the isolation hole the
ruling closes, and `--clone` / dashboard mirroring still copy API keys.
Tests: fallback/write-through/heal pins deleted; 4 invariants proven red on
base (profile never reads root; profile refresh never writes root; Nous
connector gate reads only the profile store; Anthropic pool never borrows or
rotates the root grant, root control still refreshes).
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).
Follow-up to the ported status fix:
- `tui_gateway/contracts/tools_mcp_plugins.py::McpRuntimeStatus` is a
closed wire enum; `mcp.servers.status` would raise `ContractViolation`
on the new `lazy` value. Declare it and regenerate the TS/OpenRPC
contract files.
- `ui-tui` session panel: an unknown status fell through to the red
`failed` branch; render `lazy` with its cached tool count (inline
branch, no component extraction).
- Two invariant tests, both red on origin/main: the real discovery path
yields `status: lazy` with the cached tool count and a summary without
`failed` (eager control stays `configured`, live control stays
`connected`); a lazy-only run neither warns nor re-arms the startup
retry, while a configured-only run still does.
- Document the per-server `lazy` key (undocumented until now) in
`cli-config.yaml.example`, the MCP config reference and the MCP guide.
`SetupRecord.as_payload()` serialised the record verbatim, so the broadcast
nested `failure: {...}` while `setup.status` spread the same four keys flat.
A client keyed on `error_code` saw it on one surface and not the other. Flatten
it in `as_payload`, declare the three optional keys on `SetupReadyPayload`, and
regenerate the TS/OpenRPC contract.
Why: the tui_gateway live formatter (`_format_live_context_output`, used when
the session runs on a compute host) renders its own summary and never got the
"Context files" block, and `session.context_breakdown` had no structured rows,
so Desktop's popover could not show them. The formatter now appends
render_context_file_lines() with the session cwd bound (the RPC thread has no
session context, so the discovery walk would key on the backend's cwd), and
the RPC payload gains a `context_files` list (contract + generated TS/OpenRPC
+ Desktop type). The docs sentence is scoped to the surfaces that render it.
A file whose content _scan_context_content replaces with a BLOCKED marker was
reported "loaded"; the manifest now runs the same scan and reports `blocked`.
The module docstring names the frontmatter-strip / chain-cap approximations
and drops the product-name attribution (credit stays in the PR body).
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).
* refactor(connectors): cut comments that restate the code
Connector modules (tools/connectors, tui_gateway connector RPCs, desktop
connector card/store) keep only comments that carry a non-derivable why or
a cross-module contract. No behaviour change.
* feat(connectors): managed connect runs on the connection operation
Managed `connect` / `reconnect` mint one ConnectionOperation for every target and, on a
desktop session, block the tool turn until the operation settles; the result is per-target
outcomes and never carries a connect link. Off the desktop the result carries the links and
returns at once (PR3 delivers them as their own message).
Why: the previous leg handed the model a URL and a `wait` verb, and the renderer ran its own
2s poller on top of the backend's 5s one; both walked the whole gateway catalog at two vendor
calls per page to read one row (~3 Composio calls/s per pending target). A hidden composer
message started the model's `wait` on the user's behalf. None of it was observable from the
operation the MCP leg already used.
What the operation looks like now:
- `contract.py`: TargetState / Actor / SettleReason enums and the `(kind, from) -> {to: actor}`
transition table. `operation.transition()` enforces it; a card cannot claim a managed
target `connected`, only the backend watcher can.
- `live.py`: one open operation per session, found by `op_id`. `connectors.operation.status`
reads it, `connection.respond` drives it, `pending_connection` on resume replays it.
- `run.py`: the one lifecycle for both target kinds (prepare -> card -> wake/observe loop ->
settle -> result). The managed `observe` hook polls the gateway list once per tick for the
whole operation; the exact-status route replaces that call when the gateway ships it.
- `connection.update` is emitted on every transition and on settlement; registered in the
shared event contract with the operation vocabulary typed on the TS side.
- `wait`, `_rendered_links`, `_seen_instructions`, the just-minted bounce and `_clamp_timeout`
are deleted. `force` on `reconnect` always reinitiates; plain `reconnect` repairs only what
the gateway reports disconnected.
- `connections.wait_timeout_seconds` is removed from config defaults, the example and the
docs. The deadline is `OPERATION_DEADLINE_SECONDS = 300` in `operation.py`; the key was
added on this unmerged train so no migration is needed.
- Wire model: `statusReason` parsed on connection results; the seven-state `connectionStatus`
is typed on list items and an unknown value fails validation; `CONNECTION_REQUIRED` carries
`connect_card_available` instead of the link when the session platform is `desktop`.
Session platform, not callback presence, decides whether a card exists: the GUI bridge
attaches callbacks to every backend session, terminal TUI included.
* feat(desktop): connector card subscribes to the connection operation
The card renders from the backend's operation instead of driving its own: `connector-flow.ts`
(the renderer's 2s `connectors.list` poller, its 120s client deadline and `keepWaiting`) is
deleted, and both hidden composer submits in `connector-tool.tsx` go with it. The model is
never nudged into a `wait`; the tool call is blocked on the backend until the operation
settles.
- `connection-request.ts` is the operation store: keyed by `op_id`, one entry per session,
`applyOperationStatus` / `applyConnectionUpdate` as pure reducers, `respond` leaves the
entry in place (the backend answers with `connection.update`), `ConnectionTargetOutcome`
is a discriminated union the backend's transition table accepts.
- `input-requests.ts` applies `connection.update`; `connection.expire` and the resume
snapshot correlate by `op_id` (a snapshot has no `request_id`).
- `ConnectorOffer` renders one `ConnectorCard` per target from a single
`Record<ConnectionTargetState, phase>` table; Connect opens the stored link, Try again on
failed / expired reissues through `connectors.connect` on the open operation, Not now is a
per-target `skipped`, Continue settles. A settled operation renders `ConnectorSummary` rows
with no live control.
- `tool-render-class.ts`: `manage_connections` renders the card regardless of
`HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING`; the flag still gates the onboarding flow, not the card. The
backend gate already decided admission; a card only exists because the tool was admitted.
- `mcp-setup-tool.tsx` speaks the same outcome vocabulary (connected / skipped / failed).
- `ConnectorRow.connectionStatus` is the seven-state literal union, not `string | null`.
- The guided-onboarding poller (`first-build-connectors.ts`) keeps its own row/phase types
and compiles unchanged; PR3 moves it onto the operation.
anti-slop: no net-new findings (17 touched files vs 11d1a12472).
* fix(connectors): the card never parks the tool thread; every update carries the snapshot
Found by the pre-PR adversarial review and a real-path E2E test (both left in the tree).
- The desktop `connection_callback` was still `_block("connection.request", ...)`, which parked
the tool thread on a private request-id Event until a `_respond` that no longer exists for
this event. `connection.respond` settled the operation but the tool waited its full deadline
before the watcher loop even started. The callback now only emits the card; the operation's
own wake loop is the wait. The MCP leg's blocking bridge goes with it: the card answers
through `connection.respond` like every other card.
- `connection.request` and every `connection.update` frame carry the full target snapshot
(state, link, detail). The initial mint happened before the card existed, so the renderer
never saw the links and Connect stayed disabled; a Continue settlement stamped
`not_connected` on the backend while the card still showed `initiated`. The store now
overlays the snapshot; no state is reconstructed from deltas.
- The `connection.update` emitter is a class-level `on_change` slot on the operation, set
once by `register()` (a second `register()` no longer stacks wrappers); session lookup takes
`_sessions_lock`; a re-minted link on an `initiated` target goes through `refresh_link()`
and emits, instead of a bare attribute write.
- `session.interrupt` is checked before the first observe, so an interrupted call settles
`interrupt`, not `all_resolved`.
- A gateway list reporting `expired` for an initiated target is recorded with actor `clock`
(the contract's owner of that edge); it raised `IllegalTransition` before.
- Dead `keepWaiting` i18n keys from the deleted renderer poller removed.
tests/tui_gateway/test_connector_operation_e2e.py runs the desktop lifecycle through the real
tool, registry, gateway RPC handlers and callback bridge with only the HTTP client faked.
* docs(connectors): prompts and docs describe the operation, not the deleted wait verb
The onboarding prompts told the model to call action="wait" with timeout_seconds and to
expect a hidden [setup]/[connectors] note; both are gone. tool-search.md and
toolsets-reference.md said the model gets a connect link on the desktop. tui_gateway/AGENTS.md
gains the connection-operation row of the surface table.
* fix(connectors): the panel re-mints only a dead link
Try again on a failed or expired target mints a fresh link on the open operation. A waiting
target keeps the link it was minted with; the card reopens it and connectors.connect refuses
to spend a second mint (LINK_STILL_VALID). The unused refresh_link() goes. The package
docstring names the new siblings; the nine-name public surface is unchanged.
* test(connectors): the local-batch test answers the operation the way the card does
The callback stopped returning an answer in f782b26d98 (the card answers through
connection.respond); this test still returned one and waited out the 300s deadline in CI.
* ci: retrigger
* fix(connectors): the desktop card appears outside guided onboarding
Live on a signed-in macOS desktop, the two-app connect never showed a card. Three
defects, each hidden by a test that bound state the running app never binds.
The backend read the surface from HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM only. The desktop and TUI
gateway bind it as HERMES_SESSION_SOURCE (_set_session_context), so session_platform()
was "" and managed connects took the off-desktop branch: links in the model's message,
no operation. session_platform() now reads platform, then source. The E2E test binds
through server._set_session_context instead of set_session_vars(platform="desktop").
The renderer routed manage_connections to the card only under isOnboardingEnabled(),
the HERMES_GUEST_ONBOARDING launch flag, in message-parts.tsx and the run splitter in
fallback.tsx. tool-render-class.ts had already dropped that gate in this PR; the two
routers had not. Both now route on the tool name alone.
ConnectorTool resolved the session owner by the runtime id. Owner routes, hints and
session rows are keyed by the stored id, so in registry topology the owner never
resolved and the card rendered null while the tool blocked. It now resolves by the
stored id, matching the PR1.5 card and every other owner lookup.
message-parts-connectors.test.tsx mounts the real Fallback router with the onboarding
flag off and distinct runtime/stored ids; red before each renderer fix, green after.
* style(connectors): shorter comments, no module mock in the card router test
The router test mocked isOnboardingEnabled to false; jsdom has no preload bridge, so the
real function already returns false. Comments that restated the code are cut to one line.
anti-slop: no net-new findings (25 touched files)
* fix(connectors): Connect on a waiting row opens the stored link
ConnectorCard derived the button's loading state from the phase label, so a managed row that
read "Finish connecting in your browser" (every row, since links are minted up front) had a
disabled Connect button. Nothing on the desktop could open the sign-in link; every managed
connect ended skipped, not_connected, or at the deadline.
The card now takes `busy` for "the action itself is running" and keeps `phase` as a label.
The MCP card passes its in-flight flag; the connector card passes the re-mint wait. Red before:
the Connect button on an initiated row rendered disabled and a click opened nothing.
* fix(connectors): a settled card stays dead; the card binds to its tool call only
A second connect for the same apps revived the finished card on the old tool row. The
connection.request payload carried no id, so the renderer fell back to matching rows by
connector names, and any row with those names qualified, settled or not.
The operation now records the model's tool_call_id and sends it in connection.request and in
the resume snapshot. The card binds to the tool row with that id and to nothing else; the
name-match fallback is deleted. A payload without the id is rejected by the store.
`reason` is removed from the tool: it was the only text the card ever showed from the model
and its absence forked a second tool part, since `reason` doubled as the row-correlation key
in tool-parts.ts. The card never needed it.
`connection.expire` is deleted from the contract and from _EXPIRING_REQUESTS: the card is
raised with _emit, not _block, so nothing has emitted it since the operation lifecycle landed.
Sid's rule of record: a resolved card is fully dead; no path brings it back.
* fix(connectors): the watch loop settles once, on time, and never raises into the result
Three findings from the live review, one loop.
Continue racing a finished sign-in: the loop ran the gateway read, then settled. A read that
returned `connected` for an already-settled or failed target raised IllegalTransition out of
the tool and the model got a generic error instead of the per-app outcomes. The read now skips
targets that are not live (pending, initiated) and skips a settled operation; the loop checks
`settled` after every read.
Settle reason as row text: `settle()` wrote `continue`/`deadline` into each unresolved target's
`detail`, and the card printed it in red. The reason stays on the operation only.
Stop and the deadline waited for the next tick: `/stop` sets a per-thread flag with no wake
hook, so the sleep is sliced at 250 ms and the flag and clock are read each slice. The clock is
also checked before each read, not only after.
Tests: a failed mint that later reads connected settles cleanly; Continue during a read keeps
the settled result; no reason in detail; an interrupt settles within the same second.
* fix(connectors): MCP setup off the desktop returns unavailable instead of blocking
run_mcp_operation treated a non-None connection_callback as "a card exists". Every tui_gateway
session has that callback, the Ink TUI included, so an MCP install from the terminal UI blocked
until the 300 s deadline while the docs promised `unavailable` with the terminal commands.
The MCP path now reads the session surface the same way the managed path does; the callback is
never the predicate. Test binds the surface to `tui` with the callback attached.
* fix(connectors): a failed Try again shows the failure, not the old dead link
The panel's re-mint ignored the gateway's per-app status and moved the row to `initiated` with
whatever link came back, `None` included, so a mint that failed again rendered as waiting on the
link that had already died.
One reader of a mint response now serves both the first mint and Try again
(`managed.mint`, with the actor as a parameter). A repeated failure keeps the row `failed`,
drops the link, and carries the vendor's new text through `operation.refresh`, which emits a
frame without a state change so the card redraws.
* fix(connectors): a forced reconnect waits for the new sign-in before it reports connected
`reconnect` with `force: true` is the account switch. The vendor keeps the old account active
while the new link waits, so the first list read after the mint said `connected` and the
operation settled at once: the new link was dropped and the model was told the switch was done.
A forced target is marked awaiting_new_attempt after the mint. The watcher ignores its row until
the list shows the new attempt (`connectionStatus: initiated`) once, then trusts `connected`.
* fix(connectors): the operation registers under the gateway session key
The tool registered the operation under the agent's session_id; every RPC (connection.respond,
connectors.operation.status, the panel's connectors.connect) and the update emitter looked it up
by the gateway's session key. Those agree until compaction rotates the agent id mid-turn; then
the card's clicks find nothing, no update reaches it, and the tool waits out the deadline.
The registration key is now the bound HERMES_SESSION_KEY, with the agent id as the fallback for
callers with no gateway (unit tests, a bare CLI). The E2E passes a rotated agent id and drives
the card by the gateway key.
* fix(connectors): the forced-reconnect gate reads any non-active row; a failed re-mint of an expired row is failed
Three follow-ups from the verification of the fix pass.
The awaiting_new_attempt gate cleared only on the literal `connectionStatus: initiated`. The
field is optional on the wire and `initializing`, `failed`, `expired` are valid values, so a
forced reconnect could wait the full 300 s and swallow a failed new attempt. The gate now holds
only while the row still reads as the old account (`connected` or `active`) and releases on
anything else.
Try again on an `expired` row whose re-mint fails raised IllegalTransition (no expired → failed
edge). The re-mint steps through `initiated` as the user's attempt, then `failed`, then drops the
dead link.
`detail` never carries a state name any more: `failed` as detail rendered as the row label and
made agent/display.py tag the settled result as a tool error. Only vendor text goes there.
`connection.expire` removed from the renderer's unscoped-stream set; nothing emits it.
* feat(connections): manage_connections covers local MCP servers; setup_mcp leaves the schema
One model tool now connects the user to apps of both kinds. A target
`{"name": "linear", "mcp": true}` is a locally configured MCP server;
`install` / `enable` / `authorize` are its verbs. Bare strings and
`{"name": ...}` stay managed connectors and that leg is unchanged.
MCP targets run through one backend-owned connection operation
(tools/connections_tool_operation.py): created with a server-side
deadline from the new config key `connections.wait_timeout_seconds`
(default 120, floor 5, no ceiling), per-target state, and exactly-once
settlement (all resolved / Continue / deadline / interrupt). Unresolved
targets freeze as `not_connected` with the settle reason.
Why the fold works now: the approval card is reached through
`agent.connection_callback` via the agent-level inline executor table,
which is the only path that carries a GUI callback. Registry dispatch
(every non-GUI surface) settles MCP targets as `unavailable` with the
`hermes mcp install / login` hint; managed targets in the same call
are unaffected.
`setup_mcp` is removed from every advertised toolset and from the
deferral list; an inline-table shim keeps calls from conversations
opened before this change dispatching (prompt-cache protection).
`_LEGACY_TOOL_ALIASES` is not the mechanism: inline tools bypass it.
Gateway: `mcp.setup.request/respond` are replaced by
`connection.request/respond/expire` (no wire compat; desktop ships
with this). The bridge waits exactly the operation's deadline. The
`session.resume` snapshot gains `pending_connection` so a reopened
window restores the card with the original deadline.
`manage_connections` joins `_SEQUENTIAL_DEADLINE_EXEMPT_TOOLS`: the
operation owns its wait; the 420s guard must not report `tool_timeout`
while the card is live.
The portal `check_fn` on the tool is dropped in favour of a
handler-level gate on the managed leg, so signed-out sessions can still
approve local MCPs.
* wip(desktop): connection.request store, resume restore, card routing for MCP targets
Renderer half of the setup_mcp fold, first slice: connection-request store
(mirrors clarify), connection.request/expire handling, pending_connection
resume restore, mcpTargets() + isCardTool(name, args) so MCP-target
manage_connections calls classify as cards. Not yet: the card component
rewrite (mcp-setup-tool.tsx), mcp-directory.ts removal, vitest, docs.
Does not typecheck until the card rewrite lands.
* fix(config): hermes update turns on the connections toolset for saved toolset lists
`hermes tools` writes an explicit `platform_toolsets.<platform>` list, and the
resolver reads absence from that list as "unchecked". The `connections`
toolset (#106842) shipped after most users last saved, so `manage_connections`
is stripped from the schema on every install that ever opened the picker.
The Nous entitlement gate never runs; the agent reports the tool as missing.
Migration 44 -> 45 (renumbered when folded into #109517; main was already at 44) appends `connections` to each explicit per-platform list
that lacks it and records the offer in `known_builtin_toolsets` where that
record exists, so a later uncheck reads as a decline. It skips: platforms
whose record already holds `connections` (the user saw the checkbox and left
it off), bare composite lists ([hermes-cli]) that already inherit it, platforms
where the toolset is not allowed, and any config whose `agent.disabled_toolsets`
names `connections` (Blank Slate, `hermes tools --disable`), because the
resolver subtracts that list last and the enable would never take effect.
The explicit-list test is the resolver's own: any configurable or plugin key.
`hermes update` runs migrations post-pull for the active profile and every
sibling, so one update is enough. Fresh installs and composite users were
never affected.
* refactor: anti-slop pass on the desktop slice; shorten added comments
Parse connection.request at the boundary with a typed wire interface instead of
unknown + typeof; mcpTargets reuses connectorText; comments cut to one or two
lines. slop-ratchet: no net-new findings in 13 touched files.
* feat(desktop): the MCP approval card answers manage_connections; MCP Directory removed
The existing card (mcp-setup-tool.tsx) now reads the connection-request store,
renders for manage_connections calls with mcp:true targets, answers through
connection.respond with a per-target outcome, and no longer calls reload.mcp
after Install; the new server's tools arrive on the between-turns refresh.
A settled operation renders the first target's frozen state.
session.resume restores a pending card with its original deadline on both the
activate and cold-resume paths.
lib/mcp-directory.ts is deleted along with its two fallback branches
(suggestion provider, card install). The catalog was already primary in both;
a catalog miss now yields no suggestion / a notInCatalog error. The GitHub
never-suggest test is rewritten on catalog-shaped data.
vitest: connection-request store (6), suggestion provider, clarify restore.
slop-ratchet: no net-new findings in 19 touched files.
* chore: drop __pycache__ files swept in by an over-broad git add
* fix(desktop): correlate the connection.request row with the model's tool call by reason
The synthetic row from connection.request and the tool.start row carried
different ids and no shared match value (op_id is not in the model's args),
so the card mounted twice. reason is the arg both sides carry.
* docs: manage_connections covers local MCP servers; connections.wait_timeout_seconds
* fix(connections): settle reason derives from target state, never from the renderer
A card that answers one of two targets and claims all_resolved must settle as
continue with the other target not_connected; found live with a two-target call.
* fix(desktop): a pending connection card re-arms on resume and activate
The store entry was restored but the transcript row was not, so navigating
away and back (or reloading) lost the card while the backend kept waiting.
restorePendingClarifyToolCall's core is generalized to any blocking tool
name and both resume paths project the connection row through it.
Verified live: card restored after navigate-away and after a full renderer
reload, deadline_at unchanged, approve settles connected.
* style: literal wording in added comments, docstrings and docs
* fix: shared gateway-event contract and config-schema category for the connection events
connection.request/expire replace mcp.setup.* in apps/shared gateway-events
(json list, BACKEND_EVENT_NAMES, GatewayEventMap) so the renderer's event
union includes them and the tui_gateway contract test passes. The new
`connections` config section folds into the agent tab like the other
single-field sections.
* style: import order (perfectionist) in the desktop and shared files this PR touches
* chore: retrigger CI (zero-job dispatch failure, auto-heal)
tests/contracts -> tests/tui_gateway/contracts (tree-layout rule: tests mirror a source
package). test_rpc_params_cannot_spoof_runtime_artifacts: forged owner_transport /
owner_session_record / owner_token keys are now refused at the wire (4000 + key path)
instead of silently dropped before the handler; the invariant (no steer reaches the
agent) is unchanged and asserted directly.
The staleness test regenerates in the Python lane, which has no
node_modules; prettier-dependent output would make the check pass locally
and fail in CI (or the reverse). Single-quoted literals, bare identifier
keys, no trailing commas or whitespace — prettier --check is clean on the
committed file.
apps/shared/src/gateway-events.ts is now a thin layer over
gateway-contract.generated.ts (client-local synthetic events + the
GatewayEvent envelope); gateway-events.json, its two rendezvous tests and
the duplicated BillingBlock / SessionInfo / ProjectInfo hand copies are
gone. Desktop, TUI, web and shared typecheck against the generated
RpcMethods / ServerRequestMap / BackendGatewayEventMap.
What tsc found once the types were honest: three phantom fields the
backend never sent (tool.start.todos, error.reason,
voice.transcript.voice_stopped) - the TUI todo tests were driving the
list through the phantom and are retargeted to tool.complete, where the
wire actually carries it; nullable fields (`None` on the wire) were typed
as plain optionals in eight places and now coerce at the boundary;
SessionResumeResult had a stale generic.
Contract fixes from the consumer pass: TranscriptMessage is the gateway
projection (text/row_id/context/args), not the stored row; SkinPayload
matches HermesSkin (empty-string defaults, never null); SessionLiveInfo
model/tools/skills are required (always emitted); BillingBlock.billing_url
is required-nullable (dataclass asdict).
tui_gateway/AGENTS.md documents the declare -> regenerate -> tsc loop.
Handlers own their documented domain codes (4006 missing session_id, 4015 bad
url, 4009 orphan claim); the contract's job on the way in is the one check no
handler performs — an unknown key (4000 with the key path). Missing/mistyped
fields are re-checked AFTER a successful handler answer under the strict
test policy, so a contract narrower than the wire still fails the suite.
Two models widened from the suite: SeedMessage (clients forward stored rows
verbatim), tool.complete.args (mirrored child rows omit it). Tests that
drove session.activate with prompt params (and vice versa) or stubbed
_live_session_payload with a bare {session_id} now send the real shapes.
215 methods, 13 server→client requests and 67 notifications now have Pydantic
contracts under tui_gateway/contracts/<topic>.py, rendered to
apps/shared/src/gateway-contract.generated.ts (616 types) and
gateway-contract.openrpc.json. tests/contracts/test_generated.py pins both
files to an in-memory regeneration and asserts catalog completeness from the
CODE side (every registered handler / emitted event / sent request has a
contract, nothing orphaned). scripts/ci/classify_changes.py runs the Python
lane when either generated file changes.
Phantom fields the hand-typed TS carried and no emitter ever set:
tool.start.todos, error.reason, voice.transcript.voice_stopped.
The gateway asked the user questions (approval, clarify, sudo, secret,
vault, MCP setup, the desktop read/act bridges) by emitting a
`<x>.request` EVENT carrying a hand-minted request_id, blocking the
agent thread on a module dict keyed by that id, and exposing a paired
`<x>.respond` METHOD per kind — thirteen pairs, four registries
(`_pending`, `_answers`, `_batch_clarify`, `_EXPIRING_REQUESTS`) and a
per-kind reconnect snapshot (`pending_clarify` / `pending_approval`)
that only two of the thirteen kinds ever got. JSON-RPC already has the
primitive: the server sends a request frame with an id and the client
answers with a response frame bearing the same id.
`tui_gateway/server_requests.py` owns the one mechanism:
send() block the agent thread until the response frame
(`srq-<n>` ids; ints belong to the client)
send_async() fire-and-callback variant (bot relay)
cancel*() withdraw with ONE `request.cancel {id, method, reason}`
event (timeout / interrupt / process exit /
answered elsewhere) instead of per-kind *.expire
open_requests() the still-open frames, replayed by session.resume,
session.activate and session.events.since so a
reconnecting client re-renders every kind, not two
clarify.lock stays a real client→server RPC (locks one batch
answer early); locked answers merge into the final
set even when the closing response carries only the
tail the user answered last
A client that does not implement a method answers -32601 and the agent
fails fast (the old fixed-timeout "unavailable" probes for tour/preview
still work — a wire error IS an answer). Approval: the queue entry's
settle hook withdraws the request when `/approve` from another surface,
a timeout or an interrupt resolves it first, so no window keeps a dead
card. Compute-host children own their waits; the parent mirrors their
open frames for replay and relays `clarify.lock` + response frames.
Clients: `JsonRpcRequestChannel` gains `onRequest` (unhandled → -32601,
dedup by id) and `JsonRpcGatewayClient` re-delivers `open_requests`
from the replay result. Desktop gets `gateway-event/server-requests.ts`
(one handler per method, replacing the request branches of
`input-requests.ts` / `desktop-bridge.ts`) and a `store/server-requests`
registry so every answer site calls `respondToServerRequest(id, result)`
synchronously; the TUI gets `createServerRequestHandler.ts` +
`serverRequestStore.ts`. `gateway-events.json` now pins both halves
(events + server request methods); the two contract tests check both.
Live (real stdio gateway, real `clarify_callback` on the agent thread):
before, `clarify.request` event + `clarify.respond` RPC, batch final
answers lost ('' returned); after, `{"id":"srq-…","method":"clarify"}`
frame, `session.events.since.open_requests` replays it, response frame
`{"answer":"yes"}` reaches the agent, batch lock + final response
merge to `{"q0":"1","q1":"free text"}`.
The backend never sent a JSON-RPC request; when it needed an answer from the
renderer it hand-correlated a `*.request` notification with a later `*.respond`
method through four module-level dicts, a timeout thread and 13 derived
`*.expire` names, plus a separate reconnect snapshot per prompt kind. That is a
second request/response layer built on a protocol that already has one.
`tui_gateway/server_requests.py` sends `{id: "srq-…", method, params}` and
blocks on the response frame with that id (string ids never collide with the
clients' integer ids). One `request.cancel {id, method, reason}` notification
withdraws a request on timeout / interrupt / session close. `open_requests` on
`session.resume` / `session.activate` / `session.events.since` re-delivers
unanswered requests after a reconnect; the shared TypeScript channel does that
itself before the caller sees the result. Batch clarify keeps its per-question
locks as a normal `clarify.lock` RPC (the last lock resolves the request).
Approvals stay queue-backed (`tools.approval` owns the timeout, `/approve all`,
coalescing): the request resolves the queue entry and the entry's own
resolution withdraws the request through `register_gateway_settle`.
Deleted: `_block`, `_respond`, `_pending`, `_answers`,
`_pending_prompt_payloads`, `_batch_clarify`, `_EXPIRING_REQUESTS`, the
`*.respond` methods, every `*.request` / `*.expire` event, `pending_clarify`.
Compute-host (turn isolation) mirrors the child's open request and relays the
response frame / lock to it. Desktop, TUI and shared clients register
`onRequest` handlers where they used to switch on `*.request` events; answers
are response frames over the socket the request arrived on, so #91684's
owner-routing class cannot recur for prompts.
The desktop and the web dashboard each carried a private copy of the
cyberpunk / ember / midnight / mono palettes and they had drifted: the
dashboard's cyberpunk canvas was #040608 with a mint #9bffcf accent
while the desktop's was #000a00 with #00ff41, ember and midnight
disagreed on both canvas and accent, mono agreed only by luck.
Move the raw palette table for every built-in preset into
@hermes/shared (`THEME_PRESET_PALETTES`, apps/shared/src/theme-presets.ts)
and make it the single source of truth:
- apps/desktop/src/themes/presets.ts spreads its `colors` / `darkColors`
from the shared table; the OKLCH synthesis, terminal palettes and
typography stay in the desktop. Serialised BUILTIN_THEMES are
byte-identical to before, so the existing `--dt-primary-solid`
parity pins stay green untouched.
- web/src/themes/presets.ts projects each shared preset onto its
3-slot model through one pure function, `webPresetFromShared`
(background <- background, midground <- primary, warmGlow <- the
midground/ring accent), so cyberpunk / ember / midnight / mono now
render the desktop's palette. Web-only presets (default,
default-large, nous-blue, rose) are untouched.
- Invariant test (web): for every preset shared by both surfaces the
dashboard canvas equals the shared background and the projected text
colour keeps >= 3:1 contrast against it. Red on the previous hexes,
green now.
Why: one edit in one place should recolour a preset on every surface;
two hand-maintained tables guarantee the drift the audit found.
The 1e9 → '1000M' test row read as a snapshot of a missing rung; the
formatter comment now states the cap (token/cost figures stay well under a
billion; a B suffix would collide with the bytes reading) and the row cites it.
The shared ensureContrast shipped the TUI's fine 0.05×20 ladder, which
changed --dt-primary-solid for 7 of 15 desktop presets (nous #3b6acb →
#3f70d8, cyberpunk #00661a → #008021, slate #505457 → #6f7377) while the PR
body said no preset VALUE changed. The ladder is now the desktop's original
algorithm exactly — pole by luminance < 0.5, accumulating 0.2 steps up to
1.0001, re-mixed from the source colour — with `step` as a parameter. The
only pre-refactor TUI caller (ColorChain.ensureContrast) passes 0.05, so
the terminal palette is byte-identical too.
Test: apps/desktop context.test.tsx iterates every builtin preset × mode,
paints it through ThemeProvider and asserts --dt-primary-solid equals the
value a reference copy of the old desktop algorithm computes. Sabotage
(default step 0.05): 11/30 rows fail. Docs: the SDK table now lists
contrastRatio as `number | null` under sRGB measures, not OKLCH.
The desktop model picker moved from foldIncludes (searchFold: lower-case +
`[-_.]` → space on text AND query) to the shared fuzzyRank, which only
lower-cased. `gpt.4o`, `claude_3` and `qwen3-8` returned zero rows where
main listed gpt-4o / claude-3-opus / qwen3.8-flash, while HighlightMatches
still folded — filter and highlight disagreed. fuzzyScore now folds both
sides with a length-preserving fold, so positions still index the original
target and all three surfaces rank a separator variant identically.
Tests: three separator rows in fuzzy.test.ts and in the desktop picker
test. Sabotage (lower-case only): all six fail.
web/src/lib/slashExec.ts and web/src/components/SlashPopover.tsx had zero
importers since the React composer was replaced by the PTY-embedded TUI
(f49afd3122) — exactly what web/AGENTS.md forbids, now orphaned. Their
parseSlash still carried the `(.*)` newline bug and lacked the `prefill`
variant. Desktop and the TUI each hand-rolled the same slash split and the
same command.dispatch narrowing; the multi-line fix (#41323, #55510) had to
be applied to each copy separately.

9 desktop importers + 3 TUI importers repointed.
Behavior change: desktop `parseSlashCommand` now lower-cases the command
name like the TUI, backend `resolve_command` and `slash.exec` already do
(`/Help` resolved before via the case-insensitive backend; local desktop
action lookups were case-sensitive). TUI's parsed result no longer carries
the redundant `cmd` echo (no consumer read it).
Tests: apps/shared/src/slash.test.ts (parseSlashCommand multi-line /
newline-boundary / degenerate cases; parseCommandDispatch every variant +
malformed rejection). Sabotage: restoring `(.*)` in SLASH_PARTS_RE fails
2 tests; restored -> 7 pass. Desktop chat-runtime.test.ts and TUI
asCommandDispatch.test.ts cases moved here; slashParity.test.ts repointed.
ui-tui/src/lib/color.ts called itself "the twin of the desktop app's
src/themes/color.ts" and the two had already drifted: the desktop measured
readableOn but used a coarse 0.2x5 ensureContrast ladder and returned 0 for
unparseable luminance; the TUI had the fine 0.05x20 ladder and null-for-garbage
but a luminance>0.5 threshold readableOn. Both now import the primitives from
apps/shared/src/color.ts (`@hermes/shared/color`, also exported from the root
index); each surface keeps only what is specific to it. No palette / preset /
skin VALUE changes anywhere — only math.

Importers repointed (17): apps/desktop/src/{sdk/index.ts, themes/context.tsx, themes/retint.ts,
themes/retint.test.ts, themes/skin.ts, themes/vscode.ts, themes/vscode.test.ts};
ui-tui/src/{theme.ts, sdk/index.ts, sdk/apps/weather.tsx, app/createGatewayEventHandler.ts,
components/agentsPanel.tsx, components/branding.tsx, components/loaders.tsx,
components/overlayPrimitives.tsx, lib/color.ts, lib/color.test.ts}.
Wiring: apps/shared/package.json exports './color'; apps/shared/src/index.ts re-exports;
apps/desktop/tsconfig.json paths + vite.config.ts alias for '@hermes/shared/color'
(ui-tui resolves the subpath via the workspace package exports, like './billing').
Behavior change (1): relativeLuminance / contrastRatio return null for unparseable
input on the desktop too (previously 0, which made garbage measure like pure
black). Desktop SDK export `contrastRatio` therefore widens to `number | null`.
Only ensureContrastOklch relied on the number: it now treats null as "already
passing / can't measure" and returns the input unchanged. Every other desktop
caller passes 6-digit hex.
Behavior change (2): readableOn MEASURES both candidate inks and returns the one
with the higher contrast ratio (desktop semantics; the threshold version got
mid-lightness accents wrong: white on #4f9e5e is 3.29:1 vs near-black 5.50:1).
Signature is readableOn(bg, inks = ['#000000', '#ffffff']); the desktop passes
its own pair via `readableInk` so desktop output is byte-identical. The TUI
switches from the luminance>0.5 threshold to measurement: over the 185 distinct
hexes in ui-tui/src/theme.ts (DARK/LIGHT seeds + built palettes) and
hermes_cli/skin_engine.py, 56 flip from '#ffffff' to '#000000' — all
mid-lightness accents (L 0.18–0.49, e.g. #cd7f32, #4caf50, #ef5350, #ffa726,
#4dabf7) where black measures 4.6–10.8:1 against white's 1.9–4.5:1. Note the
TUI never called readableOn directly; it only reaches ensureContrast's pole
choice (below), and ensureContrast is only reachable via the color() chain and
the theme.ts re-export (no production caller today).
Behavior change (3): ensureContrast steps 0.05 x 20 from the ORIGINAL color toward
the measured readableOn pole (TUI semantics). The desktop previously stepped
0.2 x 5 toward a threshold-chosen pole, so desktop-derived accents that needed a
lift (skin/VS Code imports whose accent fails 4.5:1 on the sidebar, and
--dt-primary-solid) may now land up to 0.15 closer to their original hue —
they stop at the first passing rung. Palette VALUES are unchanged; only
synthesized colors move.
Also: parseColor accepts #rgb shorthand where desktop hexToRgb rejected it —
strictly more permissive; the only desktop path fed raw user hex is
normalizeHex, which already expands shorthand itself.
Tests: apps/shared/src/color.test.ts (moved TUI parse/mix/contrast cases +
two invariants):
- "readableOn(%s) returns the ink with the higher measured contrast" — computes
contrastRatio for each candidate in the test and asserts the returned ink is
the max (a contract, not a hardcoded hex) over #4f9e5e (both ink pairs),
#cba6f7, #ffffff, #101014.
Sabotage: reverted readableOn to the luminance threshold → 3 red
(#4f9e5e x2, #cba6f7); restored → green.
- "ensureContrast(%s on %s) clears %s" — 5 failing pairs end ≥ min; plus
"leaves passing and unparseable colors byte-identical".
Sabotage: truncated the ladder to 3 rungs → 5 red; restored → green.
ui-tui/src/lib/color.test.ts keeps only the color() chain case.

Handoff: desktop vs web preset palettes diverge for the four shared ids
(web presets carry a 3-slot palette {background, midground, foreground(alpha 0)}
+ warmGlow, not the desktop's 24-slot set, so only the comparable slots are
listed; web `foreground` is #ffffff alpha 0 on all four — a glow/overlay
slot, not text ink). Design call for Teknium; nothing changed here.

Desktop and web each re-implemented the same locale plumbing: the
TranslationOverride<T> partial-catalog type, isRecord (four copies across
the two apps), mergeTranslations, the RTL_LOCALES={'ar'} set with the
documentElement.lang/dir effect, and the endonym table for the language
picker (6 entries on desktop, 17 on web, overlapping and hand-synced).
The generic parts now live once in apps/shared/src/i18n.ts (exported from
the root index and the `@hermes/shared/i18n` subpath). It is generic over
the catalog type — no Translations, no `en` — so translation catalogs stay
per-app (content decision, deliberately not merged here).
Sites (path::symbol → canonical):
apps/desktop/src/i18n/define-locale.ts::TranslationOverride, isRecord,
mergeTranslations → @hermes/shared/i18n; defineLocale is a one-liner

→ LOCALE_ENDONYMS.<id>; englishName/configValue columns stay
The six desktop endonyms were byte-identical to web's before the move.
Tests: apps/shared/src/i18n.test.ts — mergeTranslations keeps untouched
sibling keys under a nested partial override and replaces functions/arrays
wholesale without mutating the base; RTL_LOCALES ⊆ keys(LOCALE_ENDONYMS);
applyDocumentLocale is a no-op without a document. The existing desktop
context.test.tsx RTL/lang assertions keep covering the effect.
Behavior change: none.
Three TS surfaces each carried their own ANSI stripper with different
coverage. The TUI's (OSC, DCS/SOS/PM/APC strings, complete and truncated
CSI, multi-byte non-CSI ESC sequences, stray ESC, C0 controls) is now the
single implementation at apps/shared/src/ansi.ts, exported from the root
index and the new `@hermes/shared/ansi` subpath (ui-tui has no DOM lib, so
it imports the subpath like it does for billing/skin).
Sites (path::symbol → canonical):
ui-tui/src/lib/text.ts::stripAnsi, sanitizeAnsiForRender, hasAnsi
→ moved to apps/shared/src/ansi.ts (text.ts now imports stripAnsi
from '@hermes/shared/ansi' for its own trail helpers)
ui-tui: 13 importers repointed from '../lib/text.js' to
'@hermes/shared/ansi' (createGatewayEventHandler.ts,
components/messageLine.tsx, 11 __tests__ files)
apps/desktop/src/lib/ansi.ts::stripAnsi (2 regexes) → deleted;
parseAnsi/ansiColorClass/hasAnsiCodes stay (styled-segment parser)
apps/desktop/src/app/session/hooks/use-prompt-actions/index.ts
→ imports stripAnsi from '@hermes/shared/ansi'
apps/desktop/src/components/assistant-ui/tool/fallback-model/index.ts
private SGR-only stripAnsi → deleted; imports the shared one
Tests: the TUI 'ANSI sanitizers' cases move from
ui-tui/src/__tests__/text.test.ts to apps/shared/src/ansi.test.ts, plus
one invariant: an OSC-8 hyperlink + DCS string + SGR + partial CSI tail
strips to exactly the visible text with no ESC/BEL left.
Behavior change: desktop chat system messages (use-prompt-actions) and
inline-diff chrome (stripInlineDiffChrome) now also lose OSC hyperlink
payloads, DCS strings, truncated CSI tails and C0 control bytes that the
weaker regexes let through. TUI behavior is unchanged.
Three hand-rolled compact-number formatters and two mirrored copies of the
reasoning-effort value set collapse into apps/shared/src/format.ts and
apps/shared/src/reasoning-effort.ts, exported from the package root and as
the subpaths `@hermes/shared/format` / `@hermes/shared/reasoning-effort`
(the TUI compiles with lib ES2023 and imports subpaths only). Surfaces keep
their own label maps and UI helpers. No re-export shims remain.
Convention for compactNumber (desktop's implementation, moved verbatim):
lowercase 'k', uppercase 'M', promotion-guarded thresholds (>= 999.5 -> k,
>= 999_950 -> M) so rounding can never print "1000k", trailing ".0"
stripped, non-finite / <= 0 -> "0".

web/src/lib/reasoning-effort.ts::VALID_EFFORTS -> Set(REASONING_EFFORT_VALUES); normalizeEffort falls back to DEFAULT_REASONING_EFFORT
Semantics kept: web `none` is selectable; desktop `none` resolves to ''
(thinking off); desktop isReasoningEffort still trims + lowercases.
Behavior change:
- web: token counts on the Models page and ModelInfoCard now print a
lowercase 'k' and are promotion-guarded: 128_000 "128K" -> "128k",
999_999 "1000.0K" -> "1M", 1_500 "1.5K" -> "1.5k". 'M' is unchanged.
- TUI: fmtK used Intl compact notation; compactNumber differs only in
suffix case and the guard: 1_000_000 "1m" -> "1M", and billions no
longer get a 'b' suffix (1_000_000_000 "1b" -> "1000M"). Sub-million
values are identical ("999", "1k", "1.5k"). Non-positive values now
print "0" instead of "-1k".
- desktop: none (its formatter moved verbatim).
Tests: apps/shared/src/format.test.ts::"compactNumber" (table incl.
999_999 -> "1M", 999_949 -> "999.9k"; fails when the promotion guard is
removed) and apps/shared/src/reasoning-effort.test.ts::"reasoning-effort"
(no duplicate values, `none` is the only non-level, default is a member;
fails on a duplicated level or a `none`-accepting isReasoningEffort).
Three byte-identical (modulo prettier and a "keep in sync" header comment)
copies of model-search-text.ts and two of fuzzy.ts collapse into one copy
each under apps/shared/src, exported from the package root and as the
subpaths `@hermes/shared/fuzzy` / `@hermes/shared/model-search-text` (the
TUI compiles with lib ES2023 and imports subpaths, never the DOM-typed
root). The vitest suites move with the code; no re-export shims remain.
Sites (path::symbol -> canonical):

web/src/lib/fuzzy.ts::fuzzyScore/fuzzyScoreMulti/fuzzyRank -> deleted

web/src/lib/model-picker-filter.ts::fuzzyScoreMulti -> @hermes/shared
apps/desktop/src/components/model-picker.tsx::modelSearchText -> @hermes/shared (+ fuzzyRank, see below)
The header comment now names only the cross-language twin
(hermes_cli/model_search.py) as the thing to keep in sync.
Behavior change (desktop only): the desktop model picker used to filter
model rows with `foldIncludes` substring matching and keep the curated
order; it now ranks them with the same `fuzzyRank(models, query,
modelSearchText)` the web and TUI pickers use. What a user sees
differently while typing a query:
- subsequence queries match: "g4o" now finds "gpt-4o" (previously only
a literal substring such as "gpt-4" or "4o" matched);
- the best match floats to the top instead of rows staying in curated
order (exact > prefix > word-boundary > contiguous > scattered);
- a query that matches the provider name/slug still shows that
provider's full curated list in order, exactly as before;
- an empty query still shows the curated list verbatim.
The in-row highlight is unchanged (substring emphasis via HighlightMatches),
so a fuzzy-only hit renders without emphasis rather than mis-highlighting.
Tests: apps/desktop/src/components/model-picker.test.tsx::"orders model
rows exactly as the shared fuzzyRank does" asserts the rendered row order
equals the shared fuzzyRank order for the same inputs (fails on both the
old substring filter and a reversed ranking).
Re-verified against the tui_gateway emitters:
- SubagentEventPayload.cost_usd / .iteration: not in
tool_progress.py::_SUBAGENT_FIELDS, never emitted → removed; the TUI's
turnController no longer copies them (its SubagentProgress keeps the
fields for spawn-history persistence).
- SubagentEventPayload.child_session_id: emitted (in _SUBAGENT_FIELDS, read
by agent_callbacks.py::_mirror_subagent_to_child) but untyped → added.
- ToolCompletePayload.error: _on_tool_complete never sets it → removed;
the TUI's completeTool drops its dead `error` parameter and renders the
trail line as non-error (which is what it always did on the wire).
- ToolStartPayload.todos: not on the wire either, but the TUI handler and
its fixtures exercise recordTodos from tool.start; kept with a comment
saying so rather than churning the handler.
- MessageCompletePayload.failure_reason: prompt_turn.py passes
result.get("failure_reason") through → `string | null`.
handleFrame guarded JSON.parse but then read `frame.id` on whatever came
back, so a stdout line of `null`/`42`/`"str"` threw a TypeError out of the
readline handler — an uncaughtException in the Ink process, where main's
TUI had caught and logged it. Non-object frames now return null (the owner
logs a protocol error, as for non-JSON).
The shared heartbeat counted ANY inbound frame as liveness, silently
dropping the TUI's original contract (fail on an unanswered gateway.ping):
a backend whose request loop is wedged but still streams deltas never
tripped the deadline. `heartbeatLiveness` now selects the contract:
'response' (default, TUI) — only a pong or a response to our own request
resets the deadline; 'any-inbound' — the desktop/web WebSocket client's
original behaviour, which JsonRpcGatewayClient passes explicitly so that
surface is unchanged. The dead 'error' branch comment in connect()'s
onClose is corrected to describe the onSocketClose-intercept case it
actually serves.
Tests: it.each over 'null'/'42'/'"str"'/'true' asserts no throw and null;
'response' mode: pongs and request responses keep it alive, streaming
deltas with unanswered pings fire onHeartbeatFailure. Sabotage (remove the
object check + count any inbound): 5 tests fail with the original TypeError.
Four backoff formulas (ui-tui 1000/30s, desktop 300/15s jittered, web events
1000/30s, web PTY inline 250/3s cap 5 — untested) collapse into
apps/shared/src/reconnect-backoff.ts::reconnectBackoffDelayMs(attempt,
{baseDelayMs, capMs, jitter}). Every caller keeps its own parameters
(table in the PR body); the PTY ladder gains a test.
web/src/components/ChatSidebar.tsx hand-rolled a third WebSocket frame
dispatcher (`new WebSocket` + JSON.parse + `frame.method === "event"` switch
+ a private RpcEnvelope re-declaring shared JsonRpcFrame) for /api/events.
That socket now goes through EventsFeedClient, a notification-only subclass
of the shared JsonRpcGatewayClient (replay off, heartbeat off, connect
timeout covering ticket minting); the effect keeps only the retry ladder and
the banner. Both sidebar clients are now created once per component instead
of per `version` bump, so the shared client's seq watermarks survive a drop
and its `session.events.since` gap replay can actually fire for web
(previously the client was rebuilt on every reconnect and replay never ran).
Behavior change: web sidecar reconnects reuse the same JsonRpcGatewayClient
(gap replay now runs); the events feed's handshake `error`+`close` pair is one
`closed` transition (one retry timer, as before); no parameter of any
backoff ladder changed.
Two independent JSON-RPC client cores existed for one backend: apps/shared's
JsonRpcGatewayClient (desktop, web) and ui-tui/src/gatewayClient.ts, which
re-implemented request ids, the pending map with timeouts, response->error
mapping, event decoding and the gateway.ping heartbeat (~200 LOC, drifted).
Split the transport-agnostic half out of the shared client into
JsonRpcRequestChannel (apps/shared/src/json-rpc-channel.ts): the owner binds a
JsonRpcTransport { send(text) } per connection generation and feeds inbound
text through handleFrame(). JsonRpcGatewayClient keeps only the WebSocket
lifecycle, seq replay and the typed event hub on top of it; the Ink TUI keeps
only its two transports (spawned child stdio, attached socket) and its
mount-order event buffering, and delegates everything else.
Behavior change:
- TUI RPC errors now carry the JSON-RPC `code` / `data` (JsonRpcGatewayError)
instead of a bare Error(message); the TUI's timeout text is now the shared
"request timed out after Ns: <method>" (was "timeout: <method>", matched by
no caller) and callers may pass a per-call timeout.
- TUI heartbeat liveness counts any inbound frame (shared semantics) rather
than tracking one in-flight ping id; the interval/deadline are unchanged
and pings no longer carry the unread `last_activity_ms` param.
- Desktop isMissingRpcMethod reads the -32601 code first and only regexes the
message for code-less (IPC-flattened) errors, so a tool result that merely
mentions "unknown method" no longer reads as a capability verdict.
- Shared connect() now settles on a `close` during the handshake (auth-gate
4401/4403) instead of waiting out the 15s connect timeout, and
invalidate()/close() drop the socket generation before calling close() so a
synchronous close event cannot run the closed-path twice.
Three TypeScript clients each declared their own copy of the tui_gateway wire
types and had drifted apart: apps/shared had a partial GatewayEventName union
with a `(string & {})` escape hatch, ui-tui/gatewayTypes.ts a 150-line
discriminated union, and apps/desktop an `RpcEvent<T>` that was field-for-field
the shared GatewayEvent with `type: string`. None matched the emitter:
message.complete lacked warning/status/error/recoverable/error_surface,
tool.start/tool.complete lacked args/result, SessionResumeResponse lacked
session_key/messages_omitted/hydrating/auto_continue/todo_state, three
different ModelOptionProvider shapes disagreed on fields, and all three unions
handled a `tool.progress` event that no Python emitter has ever produced.
Now:
* `apps/shared/src/gateway-events.ts` is the single home: payload interfaces
typed from the Python emitters (file::symbol cited per interface),
`BackendGatewayEventMap` (89 backend names) + `ClientLocalGatewayEventMap`
(5 TUI-synthetic transport events, clearly marked, excluded from the
contract) merged into `GatewayEventMap`; `GatewayEvent<K>` is discriminated
on `type` with `seq` typed. RPC shapes shared by 2+ surfaces live beside it
(ModelOptionProvider = union of every field hermes_cli/inventory.py sets,
incl. pricing_pending/free_tier_pending; SessionResumeResponse<Info>;
SessionListItem with resolved_id; Usage).
* `JsonRpcGatewayClient.on<K>` is keyed by event name; the gateway.ready
heartbeat/replay_epoch and per-frame `seq` reads are typed instead of cast.
* ui-tui and apps/desktop import the shared names; their local duplicates are
deleted (no re-export shims — importers are repointed; the desktop plugin
SDK barrel keeps its public `RpcEvent` name as an alias of GatewayEvent).
web/src repoints ModelOptionProvider/ModelOptionsResponse.
* `tool.progress` handling is removed from the TUI handler/turnController,
desktop event sets/tools handler, shared union, tests, and two docs
(`grep '"tool.progress"' tui_gateway/` = 0 hits; the `display.tool_progress`
config mode is unrelated and untouched).
* `message.complete.warning` (history-commit note from
prompt_turn.py::_complete_turn_payload) is typed and surfaced on both
surfaces through their existing notice paths (TUI pushActivity 'warn',
desktop notify kind 'warning').
Contract: `apps/shared/src/gateway-events.json` is the sorted list of
backend-emitted names. `tests/tui_gateway/test_gateway_event_contract.py`
collects names from the Python emitter side (emit-helper literals, the
`.request → .expire` table, change-watcher table, child delta mirror,
subagent relay, desktop_ui tool emitters, gateway.ready/setup.ready/
browser-controller frames) and asserts emitted == JSON in both directions.
`apps/shared/src/gateway-events.test.ts` asserts BACKEND_EVENT_NAMES (which
the map type is `satisfies`-checked against) == JSON. Sabotage-verified: a
fake JSON name fails both tests; a fake TS name fails tsc + vitest; a fake
Python `_emit("...")` fails pytest.
