* refactor: re-architect tests to mirror the codebase
* Update tests.yml
* fix: add missing tool_error imports after registry refactor
* fix(tests): replace patch.dict with monkeypatch to prevent env var leaks under xdist
patch.dict(os.environ) can leak TERMINAL_ENV across xdist workers,
causing test_code_execution tests to hit the Modal remote path.
* fix(tests): fix update_check and telegram xdist failures
- test_update_check: replace patch("hermes_cli.banner.os.getenv") with
monkeypatch.setenv("HERMES_HOME") — banner.py no longer imports os
directly, it uses get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants.
- test_telegram_conflict/approval_buttons: provide real exception classes
for telegram.error mock (NetworkError, TimedOut, BadRequest) so the
except clause in connect() doesn't fail with "catching classes that do
not inherit from BaseException" when xdist pollutes sys.modules.
* fix(tests): accept unavailable_models kwarg in _prompt_model_selection mock
Fixes#1036
After adding an MCP server to config.yaml, users had to restart Hermes
before the new tools became visible — even though /reload-mcp existed.
Add _check_config_mcp_changes() called from process_loop every 5s:
- stat() config.yaml for mtime changes (fast path, no YAML parse)
- On mtime change, parse and compare mcp_servers section
- If mcp_servers changed, auto-trigger _reload_mcp() and notify user
- Skip check while agent is running to avoid interrupting tool calls
- Throttled to CONFIG_WATCH_INTERVAL=5s to avoid busy-polling
/reload-mcp still works for manual force-reload.
Tests: 6 new tests in TestMCPConfigWatch, all passed
