MiniMax: Add M2.7 and M2.7-highspeed as new defaults across provider
model lists, auxiliary client, metadata, setup wizard, RL training tool,
fallback tests, and docs. Retain M2.5/M2.1 as alternatives.
OpenRouter: Add grok-4.20-beta, nemotron-3-super-120b-a12b:free,
trinity-large-preview:free, glm-5-turbo, and hunter-alpha to the
model catalog.
MiniMax changes based on PR #1882 by @octo-patch (applied manually
due to stale conflicts in refactored pricing module).
Phase 2 of the provider router migration — route the main agent's
client construction and fallback activation through
resolve_provider_client() instead of duplicated ad-hoc logic.
run_agent.py:
- __init__: When no explicit api_key/base_url, use
resolve_provider_client(provider, raw_codex=True) for client
construction. Explicit creds (from CLI/gateway runtime provider)
still construct directly.
- _try_activate_fallback: Replace _resolve_fallback_credentials and
its duplicated _FALLBACK_API_KEY_PROVIDERS / _FALLBACK_OAUTH_PROVIDERS
dicts with a single resolve_provider_client() call. The router
handles all provider types (API-key, OAuth, Codex) centrally.
- Remove _resolve_fallback_credentials method and both fallback dicts.
agent/auxiliary_client.py:
- Add raw_codex parameter to resolve_provider_client(). When True,
returns the raw OpenAI client for Codex providers instead of wrapping
in CodexAuxiliaryClient. The main agent needs this for direct
responses.stream() access.
3251 passed, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures.
Split fallback provider handling into two clean registries:
_FALLBACK_API_KEY_PROVIDERS — env-var-based (openrouter, zai, kimi, minimax)
_FALLBACK_OAUTH_PROVIDERS — OAuth-based (openai-codex, nous)
New _resolve_fallback_credentials() method handles all three cases
(OAuth, API key, custom endpoint) and returns a uniform (key, url, mode)
tuple. _try_activate_fallback() is now just validation + client build.
Adds Nous Portal as a fallback provider — uses the same OAuth flow
as the primary provider (hermes login), returns chat_completions mode.
OAuth providers get credential refresh for free: the existing 401
retry handlers (_try_refresh_codex/nous_client_credentials) check
self.provider, which is set correctly after fallback activation.
4 new tests (nous activation, nous no-login, codex retained).
27 total fallback tests passing, 2548 full suite.
Codex OAuth uses a different auth flow (OAuth tokens, not env vars)
and a different API mode (codex_responses, not chat_completions).
The fallback now handles this specially:
- Resolves credentials via resolve_codex_runtime_credentials()
- Sets api_mode to codex_responses
- Fails gracefully if no Codex OAuth session exists
Also added to the commented-out config.yaml example.
2 new tests (codex activation + graceful failure).
Remove hallucinated providers (openai, deepseek, together, groq,
fireworks, mistral, gemini, nous) from the fallback provider map.
These don't exist in hermes-agent's provider system.
The real supported providers for fallback are:
openrouter (OPENROUTER_API_KEY)
zai (ZAI_API_KEY)
kimi-coding (KIMI_API_KEY)
minimax (MINIMAX_API_KEY)
minimax-cn (MINIMAX_CN_API_KEY)
For any other OpenAI-compatible endpoint, users can use the
base_url + api_key_env overrides in the config.
Also adds Kimi User-Agent header for kimi fallback (matching
the main provider system).
When the primary model/provider fails after retries (rate limit, overload,
auth errors, connection failures), Hermes automatically switches to a
configured fallback model for the remainder of the session.
Config (in ~/.hermes/config.yaml):
fallback_model:
provider: openrouter
model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
Supports all major providers: OpenRouter, OpenAI, Nous, DeepSeek, Together,
Groq, Fireworks, Mistral, Gemini — plus custom endpoints via base_url and
api_key_env overrides.
Design principles:
- Dead simple: one fallback model, not a chain
- One-shot: switches once, doesn't ping-pong back
- Zero new dependencies: uses existing OpenAI client
- Minimal code: ~100 lines in run_agent.py, ~5 lines in cli.py/gateway
- Three trigger points: max retries exhausted, non-retryable client errors,
and invalid response exhaustion
Does NOT trigger on context overflow or payload-too-large errors (those
are handled by the existing compression system).
Addresses #737.
25 new tests, 2492 total passing.
