# OpenAI-Compatible API Server for Hermes Agent
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Motivation
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Every major chat frontend (Open WebUI 126k★, LobeChat 73k★, LibreChat 34k★,
|
||||||
|
AnythingLLM 56k★, NextChat 87k★, ChatBox 39k★, Jan 26k★, HF Chat-UI 8k★,
|
||||||
|
big-AGI 7k★) connects to backends via the OpenAI-compatible REST API with
|
||||||
|
SSE streaming. By exposing this endpoint, hermes-agent becomes instantly
|
||||||
|
usable as a backend for all of them — no custom adapters needed.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## What It Enables
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
┌──────────────────┐
|
||||||
|
│ Open WebUI │──┐
|
||||||
|
│ LobeChat │ │ POST /v1/chat/completions
|
||||||
|
│ LibreChat │ ├──► Authorization: Bearer <key> ┌─────────────────┐
|
||||||
|
│ AnythingLLM │ │ {"messages": [...]} │ hermes-agent │
|
||||||
|
│ NextChat │ │ │ gateway │
|
||||||
|
│ Any OAI client │──┘ ◄── SSE streaming response │ (API server) │
|
||||||
|
└──────────────────┘ └─────────────────┘
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A user would:
|
||||||
|
1. Set `API_SERVER_ENABLED=true` in `~/.hermes/.env`
|
||||||
|
2. Run `hermes gateway` (API server starts alongside Telegram/Discord/etc.)
|
||||||
|
3. Point Open WebUI (or any frontend) at `http://localhost:8642/v1`
|
||||||
|
4. Chat with hermes-agent through any OpenAI-compatible UI
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Endpoints
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Method | Path | Purpose |
|
||||||
|
|--------|------|---------|
|
||||||
|
| POST | `/v1/chat/completions` | Chat with the agent (streaming + non-streaming) |
|
||||||
|
| GET | `/v1/models` | List available "models" (returns hermes-agent as a model) |
|
||||||
|
| GET | `/health` | Health check |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Architecture
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option A: Gateway Platform Adapter (recommended)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Create `gateway/platforms/api_server.py` as a new platform adapter that
|
||||||
|
extends `BasePlatformAdapter`. This is the cleanest approach because:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Reuses all gateway infrastructure (session management, auth, context building)
|
||||||
|
- Runs in the same async loop as other adapters
|
||||||
|
- Gets message handling, interrupt support, and session persistence for free
|
||||||
|
- Follows the established pattern (like Telegram, Discord, etc.)
|
||||||
|
- Uses `aiohttp.web` (already a dependency) for the HTTP server
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The adapter would start an `aiohttp.web.Application` server in `connect()`
|
||||||
|
and route incoming HTTP requests through the standard `handle_message()` pipeline.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Option B: Standalone Component
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
A separate HTTP server class in `gateway/api_server.py` that creates its own
|
||||||
|
AIAgent instances directly. Simpler but duplicates session/auth logic.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Recommendation: Option A** — fits the existing architecture, less code to
|
||||||
|
maintain, gets all gateway features for free.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Request/Response Format
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Chat Completions (non-streaming)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
POST /v1/chat/completions
|
||||||
|
Authorization: Bearer hermes-api-key-here
|
||||||
|
Content-Type: application/json
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"model": "hermes-agent",
|
||||||
|
"messages": [
|
||||||
|
{"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
|
||||||
|
{"role": "user", "content": "What files are in the current directory?"}
|
||||||
|
],
|
||||||
|
"stream": false,
|
||||||
|
"temperature": 0.7
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Response:
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"id": "chatcmpl-abc123",
|
||||||
|
"object": "chat.completion",
|
||||||
|
"created": 1710000000,
|
||||||
|
"model": "hermes-agent",
|
||||||
|
"choices": [{
|
||||||
|
"index": 0,
|
||||||
|
"message": {
|
||||||
|
"role": "assistant",
|
||||||
|
"content": "Here are the files in the current directory:\n..."
|
||||||
|
},
|
||||||
|
"finish_reason": "stop"
|
||||||
|
}],
|
||||||
|
"usage": {
|
||||||
|
"prompt_tokens": 50,
|
||||||
|
"completion_tokens": 200,
|
||||||
|
"total_tokens": 250
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Chat Completions (streaming)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Same request with `"stream": true`. Response is SSE:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
data: {"id":"chatcmpl-abc123","object":"chat.completion.chunk","choices":[{"index":0,"delta":{"role":"assistant"},"finish_reason":null}]}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
data: {"id":"chatcmpl-abc123","object":"chat.completion.chunk","choices":[{"index":0,"delta":{"content":"Here "},"finish_reason":null}]}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
data: {"id":"chatcmpl-abc123","object":"chat.completion.chunk","choices":[{"index":0,"delta":{"content":"are "},"finish_reason":null}]}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
data: {"id":"chatcmpl-abc123","object":"chat.completion.chunk","choices":[{"index":0,"delta":{},"finish_reason":"stop"}]}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
data: [DONE]
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Models List
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
GET /v1/models
|
||||||
|
Authorization: Bearer hermes-api-key-here
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Response:
|
||||||
|
```json
|
||||||
|
{
|
||||||
|
"object": "list",
|
||||||
|
"data": [{
|
||||||
|
"id": "hermes-agent",
|
||||||
|
"object": "model",
|
||||||
|
"created": 1710000000,
|
||||||
|
"owned_by": "hermes-agent"
|
||||||
|
}]
|
||||||
|
}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Key Design Decisions
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Session Management
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The OpenAI API is stateless — each request includes the full conversation.
|
||||||
|
But hermes-agent sessions have persistent state (memory, skills, tool context).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Approach: Hybrid**
|
||||||
|
- Default: Stateless. Each request is independent. The `messages` array IS
|
||||||
|
the conversation. No session persistence between requests.
|
||||||
|
- Opt-in persistent sessions via `X-Session-ID` header. When provided, the
|
||||||
|
server maintains session state across requests (conversation history,
|
||||||
|
memory context, tool state). This enables richer agent behavior.
|
||||||
|
- The session ID also enables interrupt support — a subsequent request with
|
||||||
|
the same session ID while one is running triggers an interrupt.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Streaming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The agent's `run_conversation()` is synchronous and returns the full response.
|
||||||
|
For real SSE streaming, we need to emit chunks as they're generated.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Phase 1 (MVP):** Run agent in a thread, return the complete response as
|
||||||
|
a single SSE chunk + `[DONE]`. This works with all frontends — they just see
|
||||||
|
a fast single-chunk response. Not true streaming but functional.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Phase 2:** Add a response callback to AIAgent that emits text chunks as the
|
||||||
|
LLM generates them. The API server captures these via a queue and streams them
|
||||||
|
as SSE events. This gives real token-by-token streaming.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Phase 3:** Stream tool execution progress too — emit tool call/result events
|
||||||
|
as the agent works, giving frontends visibility into what the agent is doing.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 3. Tool Transparency
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Two modes:
|
||||||
|
- **Opaque (default):** Frontends see only the final response. Tool calls
|
||||||
|
happen server-side and are invisible. Best for general-purpose UIs.
|
||||||
|
- **Transparent (opt-in via header):** Tool calls are emitted as OpenAI-format
|
||||||
|
tool_call/tool_result messages in the stream. Useful for agent-aware frontends.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4. Authentication
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- Bearer token via `Authorization: Bearer <key>` header
|
||||||
|
- Token configured via `API_SERVER_KEY` env var
|
||||||
|
- Optional: allow unauthenticated local-only access (127.0.0.1 bind)
|
||||||
|
- Follows the same pattern as other platform adapters
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 5. Model Mapping
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Frontends send `"model": "hermes-agent"` (or whatever). The actual LLM model
|
||||||
|
used is configured server-side in config.yaml. The API server maps any
|
||||||
|
requested model name to the configured hermes-agent model.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Optionally, allow model passthrough: if the frontend sends
|
||||||
|
`"model": "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4"`, the agent uses that model. Controlled
|
||||||
|
by a config flag.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Configuration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
# In config.yaml
|
||||||
|
api_server:
|
||||||
|
enabled: true
|
||||||
|
port: 8642
|
||||||
|
host: "127.0.0.1" # localhost only by default
|
||||||
|
key: "your-secret-key" # or via API_SERVER_KEY env var
|
||||||
|
allow_model_override: false # let clients choose the model
|
||||||
|
max_concurrent: 5 # max simultaneous requests
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Environment variables:
|
||||||
|
```bash
|
||||||
|
API_SERVER_ENABLED=true
|
||||||
|
API_SERVER_PORT=8642
|
||||||
|
API_SERVER_HOST=127.0.0.1
|
||||||
|
API_SERVER_KEY=your-secret-key
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Implementation Plan
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Phase 1: MVP (non-streaming) — PR
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. `gateway/platforms/api_server.py` — new adapter
|
||||||
|
- aiohttp.web server with endpoints:
|
||||||
|
- `POST /v1/chat/completions` — Chat Completions API (universal compat)
|
||||||
|
- `POST /v1/responses` — Responses API (server-side state, tool preservation)
|
||||||
|
- `GET /v1/models` — list available models
|
||||||
|
- `GET /health` — health check
|
||||||
|
- Bearer token auth middleware
|
||||||
|
- Non-streaming responses (run agent, return full result)
|
||||||
|
- Chat Completions: stateless, messages array is the conversation
|
||||||
|
- Responses API: server-side conversation storage via previous_response_id
|
||||||
|
- Store full internal conversation (including tool calls) keyed by response ID
|
||||||
|
- On subsequent requests, reconstruct full context from stored chain
|
||||||
|
- Frontend system prompt layered on top of hermes-agent's core prompt
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. `gateway/config.py` — add `Platform.API_SERVER` enum + config
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. `gateway/run.py` — register adapter in `_create_adapter()`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. Tests in `tests/gateway/test_api_server.py`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Phase 2: SSE Streaming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Add response streaming to both endpoints
|
||||||
|
- Chat Completions: `choices[0].delta.content` SSE format
|
||||||
|
- Responses API: semantic events (response.output_text.delta, etc.)
|
||||||
|
- Run agent in thread, collect output via callback queue
|
||||||
|
- Handle client disconnect (cancel agent)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. Add `stream_callback` parameter to `AIAgent.run_conversation()`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Phase 3: Enhanced Features
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. Tool call transparency mode (opt-in)
|
||||||
|
2. Model passthrough/override
|
||||||
|
3. Concurrent request limiting
|
||||||
|
4. Usage tracking / rate limiting
|
||||||
|
5. CORS headers for browser-based frontends
|
||||||
|
6. GET /v1/responses/{id} — retrieve stored response
|
||||||
|
7. DELETE /v1/responses/{id} — delete stored response
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Files Changed

# Streaming LLM Response Support for Hermes Agent
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Overview
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add token-by-token streaming of LLM responses across all platforms. When enabled,
|
||||||
|
users see the response typing out live instead of waiting for the full generation.
|
||||||
|
Streaming is opt-in via config, defaults to off, and all existing non-streaming
|
||||||
|
code paths remain intact as the default.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Design Principles
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Feature-flagged**: `streaming.enabled: true` in config.yaml. Off by default.
|
||||||
|
When off, all existing code paths are unchanged — zero risk to current behavior.
|
||||||
|
2. **Callback-based**: A simple `stream_callback(text_delta: str)` function injected
|
||||||
|
into AIAgent. The agent doesn't know or care what the consumer does with tokens.
|
||||||
|
3. **Graceful degradation**: If the provider doesn't support streaming, or streaming
|
||||||
|
fails for any reason, silently fall back to the non-streaming path.
|
||||||
|
4. **Platform-agnostic core**: The streaming mechanism in AIAgent works the same
|
||||||
|
regardless of whether the consumer is CLI, Telegram, Discord, or the API server.
|
||||||
|

```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The agent runs in a thread. The callback puts tokens into a thread-safe queue.
|
||||||
|
Each consumer reads the queue in its own context (async task, main thread, etc.).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
---
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Configuration
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### config.yaml
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
streaming:
|
||||||
|
enabled: false # Master switch. Default off.
|
||||||
|
# Per-platform overrides (optional):
|
||||||
|
# cli: true # Override for CLI only
|
||||||
|
# telegram: true # Override for Telegram only
|
||||||
|
# discord: false # Keep Discord non-streaming
|
||||||
|
# api_server: true # Override for API server
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Environment variables
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
HERMES_STREAMING_ENABLED=true # Master switch via env
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### How the flag is read
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **CLI**: `load_cli_config()` reads `streaming.enabled`, sets env var. AIAgent
|
||||||
|
checks at init time.
|
||||||
|
- **Gateway**: `_run_agent()` reads config, decides whether to pass
|
||||||
|
`stream_callback` to the AIAgent constructor.
|
||||||
|
- **API server**: For Chat Completions `stream=true` requests, always uses streaming
|
||||||
|
regardless of config (the client is explicitly requesting it). For non-stream
|
||||||
|
requests, uses config.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Precedence
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. API server: client's `stream` field overrides everything
|
||||||
|
2. Per-platform config override (e.g., `streaming.telegram: true`)
|
||||||
|
3. Master `streaming.enabled` flag
|
||||||
|
4. Default: off
|
||||||

|

|
|
||||||
|
## Implementation Plan
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Phase 1: Core streaming infrastructure in AIAgent
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**File: run_agent.py**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 1a. Add stream_callback parameter to __init__ (~5 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self, ..., stream_callback: callable = None, ...):
|
||||||
|
self.stream_callback = stream_callback
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
No other init changes. The callback is optional — when None, everything
|
||||||
|
works exactly as before.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 1b. Add _run_streaming_chat_completion() method (~65 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
New method for Chat Completions API streaming:
|
||||||
|
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 1c. Modify _run_codex_stream() for Responses API (~10 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The method already iterates the stream. Add callback emission:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def _run_codex_stream(self, api_kwargs: dict):
|
||||||
|
with self.client.responses.stream(**api_kwargs) as stream:
|
||||||
|
for event in stream:
|
||||||
|
# Emit text deltas if streaming callback is set
|
||||||
|
if self.stream_callback and hasattr(event, 'type'):
|
||||||
|
if event.type == 'response.output_text.delta':
|
||||||
|
try:
|
||||||
|
self.stream_callback(event.delta)
|
||||||
|
except Exception:
|
||||||
|
pass
|
||||||
|
return stream.get_final_response()
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 1d. Modify _interruptible_api_call() (~5 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add the streaming branch:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def _call():
|
||||||
|
try:
|
||||||
|
if self.api_mode == "codex_responses":
|
||||||
|
result["response"] = self._run_codex_stream(api_kwargs)
|
||||||
|
elif self.stream_callback is not None:
|
||||||
|
result["response"] = self._run_streaming_chat_completion(api_kwargs)
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
result["response"] = self.client.chat.completions.create(**api_kwargs)
|
||||||
|
except Exception as e:
|
||||||
|
result["error"] = e
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 1e. Signal end-of-stream to consumers (~5 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
After the API call returns, signal the callback that streaming is done
|
||||||
|
so consumers can finalize (remove cursor, close SSE, etc.):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# In run_conversation(), after _interruptible_api_call returns:
|
||||||
|
if self.stream_callback:
|
||||||
|
try:
|
||||||
|
self.stream_callback(None) # None = end of stream signal
|
||||||
|
except Exception:
|
||||||
|
pass
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Consumers check: `if delta is None: finalize()`
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Tests for Phase 1:** (~150 lines)
|
||||||
|
- Test _run_streaming_chat_completion with mocked stream
|
||||||
|
- Test fallback to non-streaming on error
|
||||||
|
- Test tool_call accumulation during streaming
|
||||||
|
- Test stream_callback receives correct deltas
|
||||||
|
- Test None signal at end of stream
|
||||||
|
- Test streaming disabled when callback is None
|
||||||
|

### Phase 2: Gateway consumers (Telegram, Discord, etc.)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**File: gateway/run.py**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 2a. Read streaming config (~15 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In `_run_agent()`, before creating the AIAgent:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# Read streaming config
|
||||||
|
_streaming_enabled = False
|
||||||
|
try:
|
||||||
|
# Check per-platform override first
|
||||||
|
platform_key = source.platform.value if source.platform else ""
|
||||||
|
_stream_cfg = {} # loaded from config.yaml streaming section
|
||||||
|
if _stream_cfg.get(platform_key) is not None:
|
||||||
|
_streaming_enabled = bool(_stream_cfg[platform_key])
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
_streaming_enabled = bool(_stream_cfg.get("enabled", False))
|
||||||
|
except Exception:

|

|
if os.getenv("HERMES_STREAMING_ENABLED", "").lower() in ("true", "1", "yes"):
|
||||||
|
_streaming_enabled = True
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 2b. Set up queue + callback (~15 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
_stream_q = None
|
||||||
|
_stream_done = None
|
||||||
|
_stream_msg_id = [None] # mutable ref for the async task
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if _streaming_enabled:
|
||||||
|
import queue as _q
|
||||||
|
_stream_q = _q.Queue()
|
||||||
|
_stream_done = threading.Event()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def _on_token(delta):
|
||||||
|
if delta is None:
|
||||||
|
_stream_done.set()
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
_stream_q.put(delta)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Pass `stream_callback=_on_token` to the AIAgent constructor.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 2c. Telegram/Discord stream preview task (~50 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
async def stream_preview():
|
||||||

now = time.monotonic()

|

|

except Exception:
|
||||||
|
pass
|
||||||
|
except Exception as e:
|
||||||
|
logger.debug("stream_preview error: %s", e)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 2d. Skip final send if already streamed (~10 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In `_process_message_background()` (base.py), after getting the response,
|
||||||
|
if streaming was active and `_stream_msg_id[0]` is set, the final response
|
||||||
|
was already delivered via progressive edits. Skip the normal `self.send()`
|
||||||
|
call to avoid duplicating the message.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This is the most delicate integration point — we need to communicate from
|
||||||
|
the gateway's `_run_agent` back to the base adapter's response sender that
|
||||||
|
the response was already delivered. Options:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Option A**: Return a special marker in the result dict:
|
||||||
|
`result["_streamed_msg_id"] = _stream_msg_id[0]`
|
||||||
|
The base adapter checks this and skips `send()`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Option B**: Edit the already-sent message with the final response
|
||||||
|
(which may differ slightly from accumulated tokens due to think-block
|
||||||
|
stripping, etc.) and don't send a new one.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Option C**: The stream preview task handles the FULL final response
|
||||||
|
(including any post-processing), and the handler returns None to skip
|
||||||
|
the normal send path.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Recommended: **Option A** — cleanest separation. The result dict already
|
||||||
|
carries metadata; adding one more field is low-risk.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Platform-specific considerations:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
| Platform | Edit support | Rate limits | Streaming approach |
|
||||||
|
|----------|-------------|-------------|-------------------|
|
||||||
|
| Telegram | ✅ edit_message_text | ~20 edits/min | Edit every 1.5s |
|
||||||
|
| Discord | ✅ message.edit | 5 edits/5s per message | Edit every 1.2s |
|
||||||
|
| Slack | ✅ chat.update | Tier 3 (~50/min) | Edit every 1.5s |
|
||||||
|
| WhatsApp | ❌ no edit support | N/A | Skip streaming, use normal path |
|
||||||
|
| HomeAssistant | ❌ no edit | N/A | Skip streaming |
|
||||||
|
| API Server | ✅ SSE native | No limit | Real SSE events |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
WhatsApp and HomeAssistant fall back to non-streaming automatically because
|
||||||
|
they don't support message editing.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Tests for Phase 2:** (~100 lines)
|
||||||
|
- Test stream_preview sends/edits correctly
|
||||||
|
- Test skip-final-send when streaming delivered
|
||||||
|
- Test WhatsApp/HA graceful fallback
|
||||||
|
- Test streaming disabled per-platform config
|
||||||
|
- Test thread_id metadata forwarded in stream messages
|
||||||
|
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Phase 3: CLI streaming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**File: cli.py**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 3a. Set up callback in the CLI chat loop (~20 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In `_chat_once()` or wherever the agent is invoked:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
if streaming_enabled:
|
||||||
|
_stream_q = queue.Queue()
|
||||||
|
_stream_done = threading.Event()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def _cli_stream_callback(delta):
|
||||||
|
if delta is None:
|
||||||
|
_stream_done.set()
|
||||||
|
else:
|
||||||
|
_stream_q.put(delta)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
agent.stream_callback = _cli_stream_callback
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 3b. Token display thread/task (~30 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Start a thread that reads the queue and prints tokens:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
def _stream_display():
|
||||||
|
"""Print tokens to terminal as they arrive."""
|
||||||
|
first_token = True
|
||||||
|
while not _stream_done.is_set():
|
||||||
|
try:
|
||||||
|
delta = _stream_q.get(timeout=0.1)
|
||||||
|
except queue.Empty:
|
||||||
|
continue
|
||||||
|
if first_token:
|
||||||
|
# Print response box top border
|
||||||
|
_cprint(f"\n{top}")
|
||||||
|
first_token = False
|
||||||
|
sys.stdout.write(delta)
|
||||||
|
sys.stdout.flush()
|
||||||
|
# Drain remaining
|
||||||
|
while not _stream_q.empty():
|
||||||
|
sys.stdout.write(_stream_q.get_nowait())
|
||||||
|
sys.stdout.flush()
|
||||||
|
# Print bottom border
|
||||||
|
_cprint(f"\n\n{bot}")
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Integration challenge: prompt_toolkit**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The CLI uses prompt_toolkit which controls the terminal. Writing directly
|
||||||
|
to stdout while prompt_toolkit is active can cause display corruption.
|
||||||
|
The existing KawaiiSpinner already solves this by using prompt_toolkit's
|
||||||
|
`patch_stdout` context. The streaming display would need to do the same.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Alternative: use `_cprint()` for each token chunk (routes through
|
||||||
|
prompt_toolkit's renderer). But this might be slow for individual tokens.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Recommended approach: accumulate tokens in small batches (e.g., every 50ms)
|
||||||
|
and `_cprint()` the batch. This balances display responsiveness with
|
||||||
|
prompt_toolkit compatibility.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Tests for Phase 3:** (~50 lines)
|
||||||
|
- Test CLI streaming callback setup
|
||||||
|
- Test response box borders with streaming
|
||||||
|
- Test fallback when streaming disabled
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Phase 4: API Server real streaming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**File: gateway/platforms/api_server.py**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Replace the pseudo-streaming `_write_sse_chat_completion()` with real
|
||||||
|
token-by-token SSE when the agent supports it.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 4a. Wire streaming callback for stream=true requests (~20 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
if stream:
|
||||||
|
_stream_q = queue.Queue()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def _api_stream_callback(delta):
|
||||||
|
_stream_q.put(delta) # None = done
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Pass callback to _run_agent
|
||||||
|
result, usage = await self._run_agent(
|
||||||
|
..., stream_callback=_api_stream_callback,
|
||||||
|
)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### 4b. Real SSE writer (~40 lines)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
async def _write_real_sse(self, request, completion_id, model, stream_q):
|
||||||
|
response = web.StreamResponse(
|
||||||
|
headers={"Content-Type": "text/event-stream", "Cache-Control": "no-cache"},
|
||||||
|
)
|
||||||
|
await response.prepare(request)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Role chunk
|
||||||
|
await response.write(...)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Stream content chunks as they arrive
|
||||||
|
while True:
|
||||||
|
try:
|
||||||
|
delta = await asyncio.get_event_loop().run_in_executor(
|
||||||
|
None, lambda: stream_q.get(timeout=0.1)
|
||||||
|
)
|
||||||
|
except queue.Empty:
|
||||||
|
continue
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
if delta is None: # End of stream
|
||||||
|
break
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
chunk = {"id": completion_id, "object": "chat.completion.chunk", ...
|
||||||
|
"choices": [{"delta": {"content": delta}, ...}]}
|
||||||
|
await response.write(f"data: {json.dumps(chunk)}\n\n".encode())
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Finish + [DONE]
|
||||||
|
await response.write(...)
|
||||||
|
await response.write(b"data: [DONE]\n\n")
|
||||||
|
return response
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Challenge: concurrent execution**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The agent runs in a thread executor. SSE writing happens in the async event
|
||||||
|
loop. The queue bridges them. But `_run_agent()` currently awaits the full
|
||||||
|
result before returning. For real streaming, we need to start the agent in
|
||||||
|
the background and stream tokens while it runs:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# Start agent in background
|
||||||
|
agent_task = asyncio.create_task(self._run_agent_async(...))
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Stream tokens while agent runs
|
||||||
|
await self._write_real_sse(request, ..., stream_q)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
# Agent is done by now (stream_q received None)
|
||||||
|
result, usage = await agent_task
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This requires splitting `_run_agent` into an async version that doesn't
|
||||||
|
block waiting for the result, or running it in a separate task.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Responses API SSE format:**
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
For `/v1/responses` with `stream=true`, the SSE events are different:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
event: response.output_text.delta
|
||||||
|
data: {"type":"response.output_text.delta","delta":"Hello"}
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
event: response.completed
|
||||||
|
data: {"type":"response.completed","response":{...}}
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This needs a separate SSE writer that emits Responses API format events.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Tests for Phase 4:** (~80 lines)
|
||||||
|
- Test real SSE streaming with mocked agent
|
||||||
|
- Test SSE event format (Chat Completions vs Responses)
|
||||||
|
- Test client disconnect during streaming
|
||||||
|
- Test fallback to pseudo-streaming when callback not available

## Integration Issues & Edge Cases
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 1. Tool calls during streaming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
When the model returns tool calls instead of text, no text tokens are emitted.
|
||||||
|
The stream_callback is simply never called with text. After tools execute, the
|
||||||
|
next API call may produce the final text response — streaming picks up again.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The stream preview task needs to handle this: if no tokens arrive during a
|
||||||
|
tool-call round, don't send/edit any message. The tool progress messages
|
||||||
|
continue working as before.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 2. Duplicate messages
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The biggest risk: the agent sends the final response normally (via the
|
||||||
|
existing send path) AND the stream preview already showed it. The user
|
||||||
|
sees the response twice.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Prevention: when streaming is active and tokens were delivered, the final
|
||||||
|
response send must be suppressed. The `result["_streamed_msg_id"]` marker
|
||||||
|
tells the base adapter to skip its normal send.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 3. Response post-processing
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The final response may differ from the accumulated streamed tokens:
|
||||||
|
- Think block stripping (`<think>...</think>` removed)
|
||||||
|
- Trailing whitespace cleanup
|
||||||
|
- Tool result media tag appending
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The stream preview shows raw tokens. The final edit should use the
|
||||||
|
post-processed version. This means the final edit (removing the cursor)
|
||||||
|
should use the post-processed `final_response`, not just the accumulated
|
||||||
|
stream text.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 4. Context compression during streaming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If the agent triggers context compression mid-conversation, the streaming
|
||||||
|
tokens from BEFORE compression are from a different context than those
|
||||||
|
after. This isn't a problem in practice — compression happens between
|
||||||
|
API calls, not during streaming.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 5. Interrupt during streaming
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
User sends a new message while streaming → interrupt. The stream is killed
|
||||||
|
(HTTP connection closed), accumulated tokens are shown as-is (no cursor),
|
||||||
|
and the interrupt message is processed normally. This is already handled by
|
||||||
|
`_interruptible_api_call` closing the client.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 6. Multi-model / fallback
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
If the primary model fails and the agent falls back to a different model,
|
||||||
|
streaming state resets. The fallback call may or may not support streaming.
|
||||||
|
The graceful fallback in `_run_streaming_chat_completion` handles this.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### 7. Rate limiting on edits
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Telegram: ~20 edits/minute (~1 every 3 seconds to be safe)
|
||||||
|
Discord: 5 edits per 5 seconds per message
|
||||||
|
Slack: ~50 API calls/minute
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The 1.5s edit interval is conservative enough for all platforms. If we get
|
||||||
|
429 rate limit errors on edits, just skip that edit cycle and try next time.

## Rollout Plan
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Phase 1** (core): Merge to main. Streaming disabled by default.
|
||||||
|
Zero impact on existing behavior. Can be tested with env var.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **Phase 2** (gateway): Merge to main. Test on Telegram manually.
|
||||||
|
Enable per-platform: `streaming.telegram: true` in config.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
3. **Phase 3** (CLI): Merge to main. Test in terminal.
|
||||||
|
Enable: `streaming.cli: true` or `streaming.enabled: true`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. **Phase 4** (API server): Merge to main. Test with Open WebUI.
|
||||||
|
Auto-enabled when client sends `stream: true`.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Each phase is independently mergeable and testable. Streaming stays
|
||||||
|
off by default throughout. Once all phases are stable, consider
|
||||||
|
changing the default to enabled.

# Checkpoint & Rollback — Implementation Plan
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Goal
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Automatic filesystem snapshots before destructive file operations, with user-facing rollback. The agent never sees or interacts with this — it's transparent infrastructure.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Design Principles
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. **Not a tool** — the LLM never knows about it. Zero prompt tokens, zero tool schema overhead.
|
||||||
|
2. **Once per turn** — checkpoint at most once per conversation turn (user message → agent response cycle), triggered lazily on the first file-mutating operation. Not on every write.
|
||||||
|
3. **Opt-in via config** — disabled by default, enabled with `checkpoints: true` in config.yaml.
|
||||||
|
4. **Works on any directory** — uses a shadow git repo completely separate from the user's project git. Works on git repos, non-git directories, anything.
|
||||||
|
5. **User-facing rollback** — `/rollback` slash command (CLI + gateway) to list and restore checkpoints. Also `hermes rollback` CLI subcommand.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Architecture
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
~/.hermes/checkpoints/
|
||||||
|
{sha256(abs_dir)[:16]}/ # Shadow git repo per working directory
|
||||||
|
HEAD, refs/, objects/... # Standard git internals
|
||||||
|
HERMES_WORKDIR # Original dir path (for display)
|
||||||
|
info/exclude # Default excludes (node_modules, .env, etc.)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Core: CheckpointManager (new file: tools/checkpoint_manager.py)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Adapted from PR #559's CheckpointStore. Key changes from the PR:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Not a tool** — no schema, no registry entry, no handler
|
||||||
|
- **Turn-scoped deduplication** — tracks `_checkpointed_dirs: Set[str]` per turn
|
||||||
|
- **Configurable** — reads `checkpoints` config key
|
||||||
|
- **Pruning** — keeps last N snapshots per directory (default 50), prunes on take
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
class CheckpointManager:
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self, enabled: bool = False, max_snapshots: int = 50):
|
||||||
|
self.enabled = enabled
|
||||||
|
self.max_snapshots = max_snapshots
|
||||||
|
self._checkpointed_dirs: Set[str] = set() # reset each turn
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def new_turn(self):
|
||||||
|
"""Call at start of each conversation turn to reset dedup."""
|
||||||
|
self._checkpointed_dirs.clear()
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def ensure_checkpoint(self, working_dir: str, reason: str = "auto") -> None:
|
||||||
|
"""Take a checkpoint if enabled and not already done this turn."""
|
||||||
|
if not self.enabled:
|
||||||
|
return
|
||||||
|
abs_dir = str(Path(working_dir).resolve())
|
||||||
|
if abs_dir in self._checkpointed_dirs:
|
||||||
|
return
|
||||||
|
self._checkpointed_dirs.add(abs_dir)
|
||||||
|
try:
|
||||||
|
self._take(abs_dir, reason)
|
||||||
|
except Exception as e:
|
||||||
|
logger.debug("Checkpoint failed (non-fatal): %s", e)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def list_checkpoints(self, working_dir: str) -> List[dict]:
|
||||||
|
"""List available checkpoints for a directory."""
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def restore(self, working_dir: str, commit_hash: str) -> dict:
|
||||||
|
"""Restore files to a checkpoint state."""
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def _take(self, working_dir: str, reason: str):
|
||||||
|
"""Shadow git: add -A + commit. Prune if over max_snapshots."""
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
def _prune(self, shadow_repo: Path):
|
||||||
|
"""Keep only last max_snapshots commits."""
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Integration Point: run_agent.py
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The AIAgent already owns the conversation loop. Add CheckpointManager as an instance attribute:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
class AIAgent:
|
||||||
|
def __init__(self, ...):
|
||||||
|
...
|
||||||
|
# Checkpoint manager — reads config to determine if enabled
|
||||||
|
self._checkpoint_mgr = CheckpointManager(
|
||||||
|
enabled=config.get("checkpoints", False),
|
||||||
|
max_snapshots=config.get("checkpoint_max_snapshots", 50),
|
||||||
|
)
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Turn boundary** — in `run_conversation()`, call `new_turn()` at the start of each agent iteration (before processing tool calls):
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# Inside the main loop, before _execute_tool_calls():
|
||||||
|
self._checkpoint_mgr.new_turn()
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Trigger point** — in `_execute_tool_calls()`, before dispatching file-mutating tools:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
# Before the handle_function_call dispatch:
|
||||||
|
if function_name in ("write_file", "patch"):
|
||||||
|
# Determine working dir from the file path in the args
|
||||||
|
file_path = function_args.get("path", "") or function_args.get("old_string", "")
|
||||||
|
if file_path:
|
||||||
|
work_dir = str(Path(file_path).parent.resolve())
|
||||||
|
self._checkpoint_mgr.ensure_checkpoint(work_dir, f"before {function_name}")
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This means:
|
||||||
|
- First `write_file` in a turn → checkpoint (fast, one `git add -A && git commit`)
|
||||||
|
- Subsequent writes in the same turn → no-op (already checkpointed)
|
||||||
|
- Next turn (new user message) → fresh checkpoint eligibility
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Config
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Add to `DEFAULT_CONFIG` in `hermes_cli/config.py`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```python
|
||||||
|
"checkpoints": False, # Enable filesystem checkpoints before destructive ops
|
||||||
|
"checkpoint_max_snapshots": 50, # Max snapshots to keep per directory
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
User enables with:
|
||||||
|
```yaml
|
||||||
|
# ~/.hermes/config.yaml
|
||||||
|
checkpoints: true
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### User-Facing Rollback
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**CLI slash command** — add `/rollback` to `process_command()` in `cli.py`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
/rollback — List recent checkpoints for the current directory
|
||||||
|
/rollback <hash> — Restore files to that checkpoint
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Shows a numbered list:
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
📸 Checkpoints for /home/user/project:
|
||||||
|
1. abc1234 2026-03-09 21:15 before write_file (3 files changed)
|
||||||
|
2. def5678 2026-03-09 20:42 before patch (1 file changed)
|
||||||
|
3. ghi9012 2026-03-09 20:30 before write_file (2 files changed)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Use /rollback <number> to restore, e.g. /rollback 1
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**Gateway slash command** — add `/rollback` to gateway/run.py with the same behavior.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
**CLI subcommand** — `hermes rollback` (optional, lower priority).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### What Gets Excluded (not checkpointed)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Same as the PR's defaults — written to the shadow repo's `info/exclude`:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
node_modules/
|
||||||
|
dist/
|
||||||
|
build/
|
||||||
|
.env
|
||||||
|
.env.*
|
||||||
|
__pycache__/
|
||||||
|
*.pyc
|
||||||
|
.DS_Store
|
||||||
|
*.log
|
||||||
|
.cache/
|
||||||
|
.venv/
|
||||||
|
.git/
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Also respects the project's `.gitignore` if present (shadow repo can read it via `core.excludesFile`).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
### Safety
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- `ensure_checkpoint()` wraps everything in try/except — a checkpoint failure never blocks the actual file operation
|
||||||
|
- Shadow repo is completely isolated — GIT_DIR + GIT_WORK_TREE env vars, never touches user's .git
|
||||||
|
- If git isn't installed, checkpoints silently disable
|
||||||
|
- Large directories: add a file count check — skip checkpoint if >50K files to avoid slowdowns
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|

## What We Change From PR #559
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
- **Remove tool schema/registry** — not a tool
|
||||||
|
- **Remove injection into file_operations.py and patch_parser.py** — trigger from run_agent.py instead
|
||||||
|
- **Add turn-scoped deduplication** — one checkpoint per turn, not per operation
|
||||||
|
- **Add pruning** — keep last N snapshots
|
||||||
|
- **Add config flag** — opt-in, not mandatory
|
||||||
|
- **Add /rollback command** — user-facing restore UI
|
||||||
|
- **Add file count guard** — skip huge directories
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Implementation Order
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. `tools/checkpoint_manager.py` — core class with take/list/restore/prune
|
||||||
|
2. `tests/tools/test_checkpoint_manager.py` — tests
|
||||||
|
3. `hermes_cli/config.py` — config keys
|
||||||
|
4. `run_agent.py` — integration (init + trigger)
|
||||||
|
5. `cli.py` — `/rollback` slash command
|
||||||
|
6. `gateway/run.py` — `/rollback` slash command
|
||||||
|
7. Full test suite run + manual smoke test
