- prevent raw MEDIA tag leakage outside the gateway pipeline
- make extract_media handle quoted/backticked paths and optional whitespace
- send Telegram media natively with explicit error/warning handling
- add regression tests for Telegram media dispatch and MEDIA parsing
The old message referenced 'hermes setup' which doesn't handle
skill-specific env vars. Updated to direct users to load the skill
in the local CLI (which triggers the secure prompt) or add the key
to ~/.hermes/.env manually.
When a skill declares required_environment_variables in its YAML
frontmatter, missing env vars trigger a secure TUI prompt (identical
to the sudo password widget) when the skill is loaded. Secrets flow
directly to ~/.hermes/.env, never entering LLM context.
Key changes:
- New required_environment_variables frontmatter field for skills
- Secure TUI widget (masked input, 120s timeout)
- Gateway safety: messaging platforms show local setup guidance
- Legacy prerequisites.env_vars normalized into new format
- Remote backend handling: conservative setup_needed=True
- Env var name validation, file permissions hardened to 0o600
- Redact patterns extended for secret-related JSON fields
- 12 existing skills updated with prerequisites declarations
- ~48 new tests covering skip, timeout, gateway, remote backends
- Dynamic panel widget sizing (fixes hardcoded width from original PR)

- extract_images: only remove extracted image tags from content, preserve
non-image markdown links (e.g. PDFs) that were previously silently lost
- truncate_message: walk only chunk_body (not prepended prefix) so the
reopened code fence does not toggle in_code off, leaving continuation
chunks with unclosed code blocks
- Add 49 unit tests covering MessageEvent command parsing, extract_images,
extract_media, truncate_message code block handling, and _get_human_delay
