The salvaged restart (#119815) exited 9 when `hermes gateway start --all`
failed, which makes the hand-off's finally block write ok:false, show the
error finale and log "detached update FAILED" in the Desktop even though
the code, venv and Desktop build all verified. Move the restart after the
outcome is settled and surface a restart failure through Write-Result's
existing manual flag instead: the Desktop's boot dialog shows the
`hermes gateway start --all` follow-up, and the update stays a success.
Publish a UI stage so the marquee names the step.
Extend the salvaged test with the exit-code invariant (red on the PR's
own head) and correct the update_cmd_windows docstring that said the
Desktop never restarts the messaging gateway.
Closes#119809
Change-detectors, tautologies, source-reading tests, redundant duplicates,
mock-echo tests and dead/unrunnable tests. Per-test rationale in the lane
ledger (category + reason for every removal).
A Desktop whose active connection is remote (SSH/remote/cloud, including the
registry primary) owns no local messaging gateway, yet the update hand-off
always ran `hermes update --gateway`. On hosts where launchd/service recovery
fails, the updater falls back to a detached local `gateway run --replace`;
with the same Telegram bot token as the remote VPS gateway, the two processes
compete for getUpdates and Telegram rejects one consumer, taking the
production bot offline (#117529).
Pass the ownership down the hand-off: globalRemoteActive() now adds
--no-gateway (posix) / -NoGateway (windows) when the Desktop is remote-served,
and both orchestrators drop --gateway from every update invocation (initial +
retry). The local-ownership default keeps --gateway exactly as before.
`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/<dir>/` is how a change gets its regression
coverage run, so a test filed under the wrong directory is a test nobody
runs when that code changes. Two kinds of drift had accumulated.
Parallel directories for one source package, folded into the mirror:
tests/acp -> tests/acp_adapter (its __init__/conftest move with it)
tests/cli -> tests/hermes_cli (prompt_toolkit fixture merged into
hermes_cli/conftest.py)
tests/run_agent -> tests/agent (backoff fixture becomes
agent/conftest.py)
tests/relay -> tests/gateway/relay
tests/state -> tests/hermes_state
246 loose files at tests/ root, routed by the package they import/patch:
hermes_cli, hermes_state, agent, gateway, tools, plugins, tui_gateway, cron.
Installer and desktop-update script tests go to tests/scripts/{install,
desktop_update}/. 43 tests of root-level modules (batch_runner, utils,
hermes_constants, packaging) stay at the root.
Filenames drop their issue numbers (95 files: test_89315_x.py -> test_x.py);
the number stays in the module docstring where it has context.
Collisions: test_cli_skin_integration.py existed in both tests/ and tests/cli
with different subsets — merged into one (10 tests, all kept);
run_agent/test_pre_compress_memory_context.py -> agent/..._handoff.py;
tests/test_account_usage.py -> agent/test_account_usage_fetch.py;
tests/test_web_server.py -> hermes_cli/test_web_server_ws_ping.py.
Deleted: test_minisweagent_path.py (empty since PR #2804),
test_model_picker_scroll.py (tested a private copy of the logic, imported
nothing), test_process_loop_event_loop_warning.py (asserted asyncio behaviour,
imported nothing from Hermes).
Repo-root path arithmetic (Path(__file__).parents[N], dirname chains) is
bumped for the 202 files that changed depth and verified by evaluating every
such expression against the new location. classify_changes' desktop-updater
lane prefix, tests-os.yml's ignore glob and every in-tree path comment follow
the moves. tests/test_tests_tree_layout.py keeps the tree from drifting back.
