Activation reaches plugin discovery before the application dependencies
exist. Give PM its own locked Python project and runtime so it can install
or repair the application without importing that dependency tree.
Keep PM outside the application workspace. A shared uv workspace resolves
the application graph and cannot provide this isolation. Route mutations
through an isolated worker and preserve transaction callbacks, cancellation,
custom package registrations, and correlated receipts.
Use the same runtime builder for source installs and packaged payloads.
Keep offline wheelhouse support in that builder. Nix builds the independent
PM lock as a separate derivation. Refuse lazy-disabled bootstrap before
installing tools or dependencies.
Move first-party YAML readers and writers to ruamel. Keep the application
lock's transitive PyYAML requirements for third-party packages.
Verification:
- Focused canonical Python suite: 177 passed, 1 host-gated skip.
- Electron backend probes: 12 passed. Electron typecheck passed.
- Both uv locks, scoped lint, Bash syntax, and whitespace checks passed.
- Cold activation, corrupt-app repair, offline staging, and relocation ran.
- Built and exercised the Nix PM runtime and standalone YAML merge script.
Six broader caller test files retain the same 24 failing test IDs as an
archive of HEAD. The existing real-home guard blocks those tests before
they can exercise the affected paths. No full-suite pass is claimed.
Native Windows signing and full Bionic package execution remain unverified.
Keep upstream's reviewed catalog as the only plugin name index.
Catalog pins and custom update sources share staged PM validation.
Publish code and dependencies with recovery after process death.
Reject a concurrent enablement change before publishing disabled code.
Use the manifest loader's supported version in the installer. Keep
probe cooldowns for timeouts, not TLS failures that a CA change fixes.
Preserve the backup, uninstall, browser and memory-provider repairs.
Verified with the canonical runner on native Windows ARM64, real Git
repositories, local TLS endpoints and UV dependency generations.
Desktop catalog tests and both TypeScript checks pass. The full suite
and native release builds were not run. No remote push.
- hermes_cli/plugins_cmd_catalog.py: new sibling owning resolution, the
.hermes-catalog.json provenance sidecar, search/info/validate, re-pin on
update, and the dashboard/TUI payload builders. plugins_cmd.py only
gains the hooks (cmd_install catalog branch, cmd_update / dashboard
update re-pin, dashboard_install_plugin catalog_name + kill list,
dispatch entries); the community index (plugin_index.py) is gone.
- hermes_cli/plugin_catalog.py: catalog_dir parameter replaces the
test-only HERMES_PLUGIN_CATALOG_DIR env var; live refresh reads ONE
published document (/docs/api/plugin-catalog.json, 6h cache, in-tree
fallback) instead of the unauthenticated GitHub contents API (60 req/h,
1 request per entry); in-tree and live removals are unioned so a stale
cache can never un-block.
- Catalog route lives in web_routers/dashboard_ui.py (the facade is off
limits); _plugin_runtime_status shared from web_server_dashboard.py;
hub rows carry removed_reason. TUI plugins.manage gains catalog_name
install, catalog row fields and an update action.
- plugin_validate: the probe context honours ctx.get_config defaults
(real plugins do int(ctx.get_config("timeout", 180)) in register()).
- Installed-state merge matches through the sidecar's catalog_name
first — catalog names rarely equal manifest names.
- extract-plugins.py emits plugin-catalog.json; deploy-site triggers on
plugin-catalog/** so entry merges republish it.
For each issue anchor present in BASE 63279301bc non-test .py and absent on HEAD, the BASE comment/docstring block was re-attached at the HEAD location of the code it explained (matched by the distinctive code line / enclosing def). Sentences already covered by an existing HEAD comment were deduped; the issue number always survives. Insert-only: no code lines changed.
Read text files with the encoding utf-8-sig so a BOM at the start of a
file does not cause a Unicode decode error (Windows editors add BOMs).
Reconstructed from ethie/pm commits 48a32b135b + 013219e814 onto the
current upstream/main base: only the utf-8 -> utf-8-sig transforms were
carried (370 exact line pairs across 205 files); pm-rename hunks that
rode in the original commit were left to the pm-store commit, and
utf8sig hunks entangled with content changes ride their owning commit.
Rebuilt on ethie/pm-clean off ac6c8028e0 (upstream/main).
Adds hermes-pack.yaml: a single YAML file pinning a set of plugins to
exact 40-char commit SHAs with optional non-secret plugins.entries
config seeds and a declared (not yet installed) skills list.
CLI:
- hermes plugins pack install <path|https-url> [--force]: mandatory
review screen (plugins + refs + declared capabilities), one summary
confirmation, then fan-out through the existing pinned install path.
Per-plugin capability consent rides the standard #64228 flow — a pack
never bulk-grants. Partial failures reported per plugin; non-zero
exit when any fail. Interactive only (no --yes in v1).
- hermes plugins pack export [--enabled-only] [--name]: pack YAML on
stdout from install metadata (repo + exact SHA); local-only plugins
become warning comments; secrets/capability grants stripped.
- hermes plugins pack show <path|url>: dry-run view.
Supply chain: refs must be exact 40-char SHAs (tags/branches rejected
naming the entry, same rule as the community index); config seeds
reject secret-shaped, capability, and allow_* keys; bare names resolve
through the community index; https-only URL fetch with size cap.
Tests: tests/hermes_cli/test_plugin_packs.py (36) — parse/validate,
SHA enforcement, mocked install fan-out, consent-per-plugin assertion,
export round-trip + sanitization, partial-failure exit code, parser
wiring. No live network.
Docs: user-guide plugins.md packs section (notes packs build on the
manifest v2 fields per #64165) + cli-commands.md rows.
Closes#64166
