Quality fold on the #117952 salvage stack: replaced_entries keys now match
the 1-based "Operation N" numbering the model sees for failed ops in the
same batch response (0-based dict keys JSON-serialialize to "0" and would
misalign with "Operation 1"); _apply_batch_op docstring states the actual
None/None-success semantics; the missing-old_text replace hint is hoisted
out of the f-string concat.
90/90 across the memory, schema, import-fallback, write-approval,
background-review-scope and honho-write suites.
Review fold on the #117952 salvage stack:
- test_replace_same_across_single_batch_and_approval_replay built three
stores over ONE shared store dir, so the batch/replay stages appended onto
the single-stage result and read its leftover entry back — the cross-surface
equality passed without exercising the batch or replay surfaces. Each
surface now gets its own dir; the batch visibility assertion moved into
test_replace_whole_entry_contract where it binds the batch surface directly.
- _BATCH_REPLACED_ENTRIES now maps an empty dict to None so add/remove-only
batches don't carry a "replaced_entries": {} noise field in every result.
Mutation re-check: reverting the batch visibility field turns
test_replace_whole_entry_contract red; 61/61 suite green after the fold.
A partial-entry replace (old_text = a span inside an entry, content = its
replacement) silently overwrote the WHOLE entry: every clause outside the
match was destroyed with success=true, most damagingly through the
write-approval replay path (/memory approve -> apply_memory_pending ->
apply_batch) that exists precisely so background agents can stage writes for
human review (#117952, dup of #59184).
The cluster's repeated fix attempt (#66321, #61357, four closed predecessors)
flipped replace to naive span-splicing (entry.replace(old_text, new, 1)).
That corrupts the canonical identifier-style call (replace(old_text="3.11",
content="Python 3.12 project") -> "Python Python 3.12 project project"),
breaks the background-review refine consumer, and split-brains external
memory mirrors, which receive the raw op content, not a merged entry.
The defect is the CONTRACT, not the mechanism: the schema invited patch-style
calls ("mirrors old_text (patch-tool shape)") while the store commits
whole entries. This pins whole-entry semantics end to end and makes the
overwrite visible instead of silent:
- schema + recovery error text + memory_tool docstring now say content is the
COMPLETE new entry and old_text only locates it (website docs updated in the
same PR)
- a successful replace surfaces replaced_entry / replaced_entries (full text
that was overwritten) on single, batch, and approval-replay paths, so the
caller can re-add lost clauses instead of discovering them gone later
- _mutate gains an optional extra payload field; _apply_batch_op returns the
replaced entry text alongside the error
Live repro on origin/main dec236b21 before: approve-apply of a staged
partial-entry replace truncated a 3-clause entry to the replacement span
alone. After: same final entry (whole-entry contract, unchanged semantics)
plus replaced_entries in the response. Grafted naive span-splice on main:
2 existing tests red (test_replace_entry,
test_attended_review_keeps_full_operation_set) — the regression this PR
avoids. Mutation checks: reverting the visibility fields or the exact-match
priority turns the new invariant tests red.
A short entry whose full text is contained inside a longer sibling entry
was unaddressable: remove('test') against entries ['test', '...tests
pass...'] hit _find_unique_match's substring scan, reported 'Multiple
entries matched', and refused — the entry could never be targeted.
apply_batch hit the same matcher and aborted the whole operation.
_find_unique_match() now prefers whole-entry EXACT matches
(old_text == entry) and only falls back to substring matches when no
entry equals old_text. Both call sites (_edit for single replace/remove,
_apply_batch_op for batch) share the matcher, so the whole bug class is
fixed at one seam. Substring partial matching is unchanged.
Reproduced red on current main (2 invariant tests), 53/53 green after
the fix; 8 sibling memory suites green via scripts/run_tests.sh.
Gate review: test_single_replace_still_echoes_entries_on_miss passed on main unchanged and
duplicated test_remove_no_match_and_empty_old_text / test_zero_match_failures_degrade_after_cap.
A failed all-or-nothing consolidation must not echo the whole
store back into the turn. Single replace/remove still return
the entry list so the model can retry with exact text.
Salvage trim of #89249:
- keep pattern id `ssh_access` (test_memory_tool and callers key on it; renaming buys nothing)
- word-bound the verb alternation: the unanchored form matched `add` inside "address" and
`dd` inside "middle", so read-only prose still fired; `\b` closes that leak
- fold the second "bare leading redirect" regex into the same alternation (`>>?` branch)
- tests: one parametrized "write shapes still fire" (echo, cat, cp, tee, mv, install,
printf, dd, scp, rsync, ln, leading redirect, option clusters) and one "read-only
mention does not fire"; the trade-off/change-detector tests are dropped
- test_memory_tool: the persistence fixture used a read-only mention; use a write shape
The cap only fires on add/replace, so an externally written over-budget
file rode silently in the system prompt while every later add was refused
with no visible cause. Warn at load; entries stay loaded (never truncate
a user's memories).
Salvage of #10886 (original hunk targeted memory_tool.py before the
store split); authored by @easyvibecoding.
Refs #10877
The salvaged commit forked an explicit /refine under a new "refine_review" origin so
the memory delete gate would not treat it as unattended. But is_background_review()
is the key for every other review guard — skill_manager_guards (curator-owned-only,
read-before-write), skill_manager_tool (archive instead of rmtree), skill_ledger
actor, write_approval staging, the [auto] tag — so a /refine fork silently escaped
all of them.
Carry attendedness separately: the fork keeps origin "background_review" and sets
_review_attended; turn_context binds it beside the origin ContextVar; the memory
gate keys on the new is_unattended_review(). Also run the gate AFTER
_validate_single_op / the operations list check, as memory_tool's own docstring
requires, so an invalid replace is rejected now rather than staged and failed at
approve time.
Review follow-up on #105944 (#105921):
- explicit /refine forks now run under the refine_review write origin
(explicit flows from the CLI/gateway handlers through
_spawn_background_review_now and spawn_background_review_thread down
to build_cache_parity_fork), so a user-requested review keeps the
full memory operation set; only automatic reviews stay behind the
unattended delete gate.
- the unattended delete gate now stages the denied replace/remove (or
whole batch) into the pending store instead of dropping it: the
fork's own review summary is never published, so a plain denial lost
the consolidation request with no surfacing path. The staged proposal
carries a proposal_staged marker that summarize surfaces as an action
line, and a staging failure still fails closed to a plain denial.
- regression tests: explicit-path origin pass-through, refine_review
keeping replace working, near-limit denial end to end (add rejected
by budget -> replace staged -> proposal surfaces, store unchanged).
The review fork's tool whitelist granted the whole memory toolset
whenever the profile had memory enabled, regardless of which nudge
fired, so a skill-nudge fork held remove/replace on MEMORY.md it was
never asked to use; combined with the memory tool's near-limit
'consolidate now' hint, an unattended fork deleted standing rules with
no user in the loop.
- Pass review_memory from spawn_background_review_thread through
_run_review_in_thread/_run_review_fork into _review_tool_whitelist;
a skill-only review no longer gets the memory tool at all.
- Fail-closed operation gate in memory_tool: a background-review fork
may add, never replace/remove (single or in a batch) — consolidation
decisions reach a human via the review summary instead.
- Keep the deny/prompt wording in sync with the whitelist so a
memory-less review doesn't advertise memory.
memory replace/remove target an entry by old_text but supply the replacement
via content — an asymmetric pairing. Callers naturally reach for new_text to
mirror old_text (it's exactly the patch tool's old_string/new_string shape),
which left content empty and errored 'content is required'. The failure also
rendered tersely, making the cause easy to miss and costing a retry.
Accept new_text as an alias for content on both shapes:
- single-op: coalesce content = content or new_text in memory_tool() + a
new_text param wired through the registry handler.
- batch ops: content = op.content or op.new_text (and in the approval-gate
preview builder).
- schema: document the alias on content and add a new_text property to the
single-op params and batch item props so strict validators accept it.
content wins if both are set.
Tests: new_text alias on single add/replace, batch add/replace, and
content-wins-over-new_text. 43/43 across memory tool + schema suites.

Complements the cherry-picked contributor fixes and closes out the
remaining sites of the 'missing explicit encoding' bug class, which is
now permanently gated by ruff PLW1514 (enabled repo-wide in
pyproject.toml and enforced by the blocking `ruff check .` step in
.github/workflows/lint.yml):
- tools/memory_tool.py: read MEMORY.md/USER.md via utf-8-sig so a
Notepad BOM never glues U+FEFF onto the first entry (issue #10878,
PR #10888 by @easyvibecoding — strict-decode contract of
_read_raw_checked preserved rather than errors="replace", so
undecodable files still refuse read-modify-write instead of being
lossily rewritten). Regression tests included.
- tools/skills_tool.py: SKILL.md and skill file reads pinned to
utf-8-sig + errors="replace" — deterministic across platforms instead
of the locale fallback proposed in PR #51701 (superseded: falling back
to cp1252/GBK makes the same skill render differently per host); .env
reader aligned with the canonical utf-8-sig dialect in hermes_cli/config.py.
- agent/shell_hooks.py, hermes_cli/main.py, gateway/slash_commands.py:

Second, deeper pass over tools/gateway/hermes_cli plus first pass over
the trees wave 1 missed (acp, acp_adapter, skills, computer_use, docker,
dashboard, conformance, monitoring, secret_sources, hermes_state,
providers). Same rubric as wave 1 (AGENTS.md test policy); security,
alternation/caching invariants, issue-number regressions, and E2E kept.
Real test-quality fixes found and rooted out along the way:
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py made real auxiliary-LLM HTTPS calls
(DEFAULT_CONFIG smart-approval leaked in) — pinned approval
mode=manual via autouse fixture: 17.4s → 0.4s.
- test_model_switch_custom_providers.py / test_user_providers_model_switch.py
silently probed live provider catalogs (~2s/test) — stubbed
cached_provider_model_ids/provider_model_ids/fetch_api_models.
- test_telegram_noise_filter.py: 15-platform copy-paste matrix over
shared gateway.run logic → 3 representative platforms (55s → 3.9s).
- test_gateway_shutdown.py: stop()'s 5s interrupt-deadline loop spun on
MagicMock agents — interrupt.side_effect now clears _running_agents
(22s → 1.0s).
- test_gateway_inactivity_timeout.py poll-harness timings shrunk 3-5x
(24s → 1.1s); test_mcp_stability.py backoff/SIGTERM-grace sleeps
patched (15.4s → 2.5s); test_async_delegation.py negative-drain wait
5s → 0.5s.
- test_telegram_init_deadline.py: loop-block margin restored to 1.0s
with rationale comment — the watchdog-dump assertion needs the loop
blocked well past deadline+grace under parallel load (flaked once in
the 40-worker verification run at a 0.2s margin).
Verification: full hermetic suite via scripts/run_tests.sh —
2,438 files, 21,718 tests passed, 0 failed, 293.9s wall.
Suite totals vs original baseline: 46,820 → 19,757 test functions
(−57.8%), wall 583.5s → 293.9s (−50%), subprocess CPU 13,564s → 11,623s.
Follow-up hardening on top of the salvaged #69745 guard, addressing both
review findings:
- Drift detection no longer re-reads the file. _reload_target performs ONE
checked read and derives both the drift check and the entry parse from that
same raw snapshot (_detect_external_drift now takes the raw text). The old
second read swallowed OSError as 'no drift', so a read failure between the
two reads let replace/remove/apply_batch rewrite the file from a stale view,
discarding externally added entries.
- Invalid UTF-8 now counts as unreadable: the checked read catches
UnicodeDecodeError and mutations return the preservation refusal instead of
raising (or worse, rewriting bytes we can't round-trip).
- USER.md is covered by the same guard (shared _reload_target path) and now
pinned by an explicit test.
Tests: read-once structural invariant, invalid-UTF-8 refusal with
byte-identical file, user-store refusal.
`_read_file` degraded any read failure to `[]`, conflating "file exists but
couldn't be read" with "empty store". That is a silent, total data-loss bug on
the `add` path.
`add` re-reads the file under lock, appends the new entry, and rewrites the
WHOLE file from the parsed entries. It deliberately skips the drift guard
(#42874: "appending never clobbers existing content") — but that reasoning only
holds when the reload actually saw the file. When `read_text` raises
(an external editor momentarily holding the file on Windows, a permission
change, a filesystem/EINTR blip), `_read_file` returns `[]`, so `add` treats
the store as empty and rewrites the file down to just the new entry — every
prior memory gone — while returning `success: True`.
Reproduced with a transient read failure during `add`:
entries on disk before : 3 (dark-mode pref, deadline, deploy target)
add("A brand new fact") : success=True
entries on disk after : 1 ("A brand new fact") <-- the other 2 wiped
replace/remove/apply_batch were shielded only incidentally — an empty view
means `old_text` never matches, so they abort before writing — but they still
returned a misleading "no entry matched" instead of naming the real problem.
Fix: distinguish unreadable from empty. `_read_entries_checked` returns
`(entries, read_ok)`, with `read_ok=False` only when the file exists but can't
be read; absent/empty stays a clean `([], True)`. `_reload_target` returns a
`_READ_FAILED` sentinel in that case without touching in-memory state, and all
four mutation paths (add, replace, remove, apply_batch) refuse the write with a
clear "retry in a moment" error. This is the same posture as the drift guard
and the pairing/checkpoint fixes: never rewrite a file from a view that isn't
the real one. `_read_file` keeps its `[]`-on-error contract for the read-only
`load_from_disk` caller, which never persists.
tests/tools/test_memory_tool.py: new TestUnreadableFileDoesNotWipeMemory —
add/replace/remove/apply_batch all refuse and leave the file byte-identical on
a transient read failure, plus controls that an absent file is still a clean
empty store and the happy path is undisturbed. The four refusal tests fail on
main. Full suite: 90 passed, 1 pre-existing failure (`test_deduplication_on_load`,
a UnicodeDecodeError unrelated to this change, identical on clean main).
Port from nearai/ironclaw#4547: treat a JSON null memory target as omitted so strict providers that fill optional fields with null use the documented default target instead of failing validation.
Builds on the zero-match feedback fix (previous commit) to close the silent-hang
symptom: when memory is at capacity, a failed `add`/`replace`/`remove`
consolidation could loop the whole turn to iteration-budget exhaustion and
deliver no user-facing reply.
#41755 turned the at-capacity overflow error into a *commanded* in-turn retry
("...then retry this add — all in this turn"); combined with the fragile
substring-only `replace`/`remove` matching (LLMs can't reliably re-quote a long
entry verbatim), the model loops add↔replace on inexact guesses until the turn
dies. The existing tool_guardrails halt would catch this, but hard_stop_enabled
is opt-in (off by default), so a default install still hangs.
This fixes it at the memory layer without changing global guardrail behavior:
- MemoryStore tracks per-turn consolidation failures; after a cap (3) it drops
the "retry in this turn" instruction and returns a terminal "leave memory
unchanged, continue your reply" result, so a failed memory side effect can
never block the turn's reply.
- The counter resets on any successful write (progress) and at each turn
boundary (turn_context.reset_consolidation_failures, guarded via getattr so
plugin memory stores without the method are a no-op).

The drift guard (introduced for #26045) correctly protects replace/remove
from clobbering un-roundtrippable content, but it also fires on the add
path. Since add only appends and never overwrites, the guard is
unnecessary and causes false positives when prior add() calls in the same
session shift the byte count of the on-disk file.
Add skip_drift parameter to _reload_target() and pass True from add().
Replace/remove continue to use the drift guard unchanged.
Salvaged from #42880 by @liuhao1024.
Closes#42874
Single-op replace/remove failed with a dead-end 'old_text is required'
error when a structured-output client omitted the optional old_text field
(it can't be schema-required without a top-level if/then combinator that
OpenAI's Codex backend 400s on). The model couldn't recover.
Now a missing old_text returns the current entry inventory plus a retry
instruction (mirroring the batch path's _batch_error), so the model can
reissue the call with old_text set. Also sharpens the old_text schema
description to state it's required for replace/remove.
Fixes#49466, #43412.
The memory tool was strictly one-op-per-call. With the store running near
its char limit by design, a new add that would overflow gets rejected with
'consolidate now, then retry' -- but the model could not consolidate and add
in one call. It had to remove/replace across several turns, then retry the
add, each turn re-sending the whole conversation context. Expensive thrash.
Add an 'operations' array: a list of add/replace/remove ops applied
atomically against the FINAL char budget. The model frees space and adds new
entries in ONE call, even when an add alone would overflow. All-or-nothing:
any bad op aborts the whole batch, nothing written.
Root-cause note: the two agent-level memory interception sites
(agent_runtime_helpers.py, tool_executor.py) silently dropped any param not
in their explicit kwarg list, so 'operations' never reached the handler and
batch calls failed with 'Unknown action None'. Both now pass it through and
bridge each add/replace op to external memory providers.
Also: success response is now terminal (done=true + 'do not repeat' note,
no full-entries echo that invited re-edits); schema rewritten to lead with
the batch mechanism and an explicit one-shot stop rule (2138 -> 1476 chars).
Live-verified: near-full consolidate-and-add went 7 calls -> 1 call,
stable across 3 reps. 103 memory/approval tests + 398 background-review/
run_agent tests green; 6 new batch tests added.
* fix(memory): make overflow errors instruct in-turn consolidation + retry
When bounded memory is full, the add/replace overflow errors now explicitly
tell the model to consolidate (merge/remove/shorten) and retry the write in
the same turn, matching the documented behavior. The replace-overflow path
now also echoes current_entries + usage for parity with add-overflow, so the
model has the same context to act on.
Closes#23378 (working-as-documented; this sharpens runtime to match docs).
* fix(memory): broaden overflow remediation hint beyond 'stale'
Say 'stale or less important' — entries don't have to be stale to be the
right ones to drop when making room.
Remove unused imports (F401) and duplicate/shadowed import
redefinitions (F811) across the codebase using ruff's safe
autofixes. No behavioral changes -- imports only.
- ~1400 safe autofixes applied across 644 files (net -1072 lines)
- __init__.py re-exports preserved (excluded from F401 removal so
public re-export surfaces stay intact)
- Re-exports that are imported or monkeypatched by tests but look
unused in their defining module are kept with explicit # noqa:
F401 (gateway/run.py load_dotenv; run_agent re-exports from
agent.message_sanitization, agent.context_compressor,
agent.retry_utils, agent.prompt_builder, agent.process_bootstrap,
agent.codex_responses_adapter)
- Unsafe F841 (unused-variable) fixes deliberately skipped -- those
can change behavior when the RHS has side effects
- ruff lints remain disabled in pyproject.toml (only PLW1514 is
selected); this is a one-time cleanup, not a config change
Verification:
- python -m compileall: clean
- pytest --collect-only: all 27161 tests collect (zero import errors)
- core entry points import clean (run_agent, model_tools, cli,
toolsets, hermes_state, batch_runner, gateway)
- static scan: every name any test imports directly from an edited
module still resolves
Hardens the context window against Brainworm-class promptware attacks
(see #496). Three changes:
1. tools/threat_patterns.py — single source of truth for injection/promptware
patterns. Replaces the duplicated pattern lists in prompt_builder.py and
memory_tool.py. Adds ~15 new Brainworm/C2 patterns (node registration,
heartbeat/beacon, pull tasking, anti-forensic disk avoidance, identity
override, known framework names). Three scopes — 'all' (narrow, classic
injection), 'context' (adds promptware/role-play, broader detection),
'strict' (adds persistence/SSH-backdoor patterns for user-mediated writes).
2. MemoryStore.load_from_disk() now scans entries at snapshot-build time.
Poisoned entries are replaced with [BLOCKED: ...] placeholders in the
frozen system-prompt snapshot. Live state keeps the original so the
user can still inspect + remove via memory(action=read/remove). Scan is
deterministic from disk bytes — prefix-cache invariant holds.
3. make_tool_result_message() wraps results from high-risk tools
(web_extract, web_search, browser_*, mcp_*) in
<untrusted_tool_result source="...">...</untrusted_tool_result>
delimiters with framing prose telling the model the content is data,
not instructions. Architectural defense against indirect injection
from poisoned web pages, GitHub issues, MCP responses — does NOT
regex-scan tool results (pattern arms race + per-iteration latency).
Multimodal content lists pass through unwrapped to preserve adapter
compatibility.
Pattern philosophy: anchor on C2-specific vocabulary or unambiguous attack
behavior, NOT on bossy English. Dropped patterns suggested in #496 that
would have tripped legitimate content: standalone 'you are obligated to',
'do not respond immediately', 'you must X' without a C2-verb anchor.
Validation:
- 257/257 targeted tests pass (test_threat_patterns + test_memory_tool +
test_tool_dispatch_helpers + test_prompt_builder)
- E2E run with real Brainworm payload: blocked from AGENTS.md context-file
path, blocked from MEMORY.md snapshot, wrapped in delimiters when
arriving via web_extract. Legitimate 'you must follow conventions'
phrasing not flagged.
Explicitly NOT in this PR (per #496 discussion):
- Per-tool-result regex scanning (pattern arms race)
- SessionBehaviorMonitor / polling-loop detection (wrong layer)
- Outbound network gating (Docker backend already covers this)
- security.context_scanning warn|block knob (current behavior is always
block-with-placeholder — there's no warn mode that makes sense)
Closes#496 for Phase 1 + the architectural delimiter piece of Phase 2.
Phase 3 stays in tracking issue territory.
Expand _MEMORY_THREAT_PATTERNS from 13 to 24 regex patterns and align
_INVISIBLE_CHARS with skills_guard.py (10 → 17 characters).
Key changes:
- Add multi-word bypass prevention (?:\w+\s+)* to injection patterns
- Add missing injection patterns: role_pretend, leak_system_prompt,
remove_filters, fake_update, translate_execute, html_comment_injection,
hidden_div
- Add exfiltration patterns: send_to_url, context_exfil
- Add persistence patterns: agent_config_mod, hermes_config_mod
(both require modification-verb prefix to avoid false positives on
mere mentions of config filenames)
- Add hardcoded secret detection pattern
- Add role_hijack precision fix: require article after "now" to avoid
blocking "you are now ready/connected/set up" etc.
- Expand invisible unicode set with directional isolates (U+2066-2069)
and invisible math operators (U+2062-2064)
Test coverage expanded from ~8 to ~30 scan tests including dedicated
false-positive regression tests for all precision-sensitive patterns.
Known limitations (deferred to follow-up PRs):
- prompt_builder.py and cronjob_tools.py still use older pattern sets
- No semantic/LLM-based scanning (regex-only approach)
- No cross-entry or cross-store analysis
Reproduction (production, 2026-05-14): two concurrent sessions on the
same agent. Session A patches MEMORY.md directly via the patch tool,
appending ~8KB of structured content (Vendor Master, Standing Orders,
Pin Board) — none of it through the memory tool, so no § delimiters.
Session B starts later with stale in-memory state (1 entry, ~331
chars). Session B calls memory(action=replace) on its one known
entry. The tool's _read_file parses A's content as a single 8KB
'entry' (no § splits), then replace truncates that entry to B's new
333-byte content. ~8KB of structured content silently destroyed.
The atomic-rename write path is fine in isolation. The bug is the
implicit contract: the tool assumes MEMORY.md is exclusively a
§-delimited list of small entries it wrote, but the v0.13 install
runbook itself uses 'cat >> MEMORY.md' for onboarding, the patch tool
edits the file directly, and operators do too.
Fix: a drift guard in MemoryStore._detect_external_drift that fires
on either signal:
1. Re-parse + re-serialize doesn't produce identical bytes
(catches oddly-encoded delimiters / partial writes).
2. Any single parsed entry exceeds the store's whole-file char
limit. The tool budgets the ENTIRE store against that limit
(2200 chars for memory, 1375 for user), so no tool-written
entry can legitimately be larger. An entry bigger than the
store limit means an external writer dropped free-form content
into what the tool will treat as one entry.
When drift fires, _reload_target writes a .bak.<ts> snapshot of the
on-disk file, then add/replace/remove refuse to flush. The original
file stays untouched. The error dict surfaces the .bak path AND a
remediation string ('integrate missing entries via memory(add=...)
one at a time, then rewrite the file clean') so the model can act on
it without escalating to the operator.
Tests:
- test_replace_refuses_on_drift, test_add_refuses_on_drift,
test_remove_refuses_on_drift — all three mutators refuse
- test_clean_file_does_not_trigger_drift — false-positive check
- test_error_message_points_at_remediation — error string shape
- test_drift_guard_also_protects_user_target — USER.md too
- test_drift_backup_filename_is_unique_per_invocation — bak.<ts>

144 memory tests passing (was 137; +7).
Fixes#26045
Three fixes for memory+profile isolation bugs:
1. memory_tool.py: Replace module-level MEMORY_DIR constant with
get_memory_dir() function that calls get_hermes_home() dynamically.
The old constant was cached at import time and could go stale if
HERMES_HOME changed after import. Internal MemoryStore methods now
call get_memory_dir() directly. MEMORY_DIR kept as backward-compat
alias.
2. profiles.py: profile create --clone now copies MEMORY.md and USER.md
from the source profile. These curated memory files are part of the
agent's identity (same as SOUL.md) and should carry over on clone.
3. holographic plugin: initialize() now expands $HERMES_HOME and
${HERMES_HOME} in the db_path config value, so users can write
'db_path: $HERMES_HOME/memory_store.db' and it resolves to the
active profile directory, not the default home.
Tests updated to mock get_memory_dir() alongside the legacy MEMORY_DIR.
Remove diary-style memory framing from the system prompt and memory tool
schema, explicitly steer task/session logs to session_search, and clarify
that session_search is for cross-session recall after checking the current
conversation first. Add regression tests for the updated guidance text.
