Surfaces Discord channel topics in the agent's session context prompt,
allowing the agent to adapt its behavior based on the channel's purpose.
- /retry, /undo, /compress were setting a non-existent conversation_history
attribute on SessionEntry (a @dataclass with no such field). The dangling
attribute was silently created but never read — transcript was reloaded
from DB on next interaction, making all three commands no-ops.
- /reset accessed self.session_store._sessions (non-existent) instead of
self.session_store._entries, causing AttributeError caught by a bare
except, silently skipping the pre-reset memory flush.
Fix:
- Add SessionDB.clear_messages() to delete messages and reset counters
- Add SessionStore.rewrite_transcript() to atomically replace transcript
in both SQLite and legacy JSONL storage
- Replace all dangling attr assignments with rewrite_transcript() calls
- Fix _sessions → _entries in /reset handler
Closes#210
Introduced a new `provider_routing` section in the CLI configuration to control how requests are routed across providers when using OpenRouter. This includes options for sorting providers by throughput, latency, or price, as well as allowing or ignoring specific providers, setting the order of provider attempts, and managing data collection policies. Updated relevant classes and documentation to support these features, enhancing flexibility in provider selection.
Fixes#163
- Add chat_topic field to SessionSource dataclass
- Update to_dict/from_dict for serialization support
- Add chat_topic parameter to build_source helper
- Extract channel.topic in Discord adapter for messages and slash commands
- Display Channel Topic in system prompt when available
- Normalize empty topics to None
Implemented the /compress command to allow users to manually compress conversation context, ensuring sufficient history is available before execution. The /usage command was also added to display token usage statistics for the current session, including prompt and completion tokens. Updated command documentation to reflect these new features.
- Introduce a separate error log for capturing warnings and errors related to tool execution, ensuring detailed inspection of issues post-failure.
- Enhance error handling in the AIAgent class to log exceptions with stack traces for better debugging.
- Add a similar error logging mechanism in the gateway to streamline debugging processes.
- Replace `hermes login` with `hermes model` for selecting providers and managing authentication.
- Update documentation and CLI commands to reflect the new provider selection process.
- Introduce a new redaction system for logging sensitive information.
- Enhance Codex model discovery by integrating API fetching and local cache.
- Adjust max turns configuration logic for better clarity and precedence.
- Improve error handling and user feedback during authentication processes.
- Enhanced Codex model discovery by fetching available models from the API, with fallback to local cache and defaults.
- Updated the context compressor's summary target tokens to 2500 for improved performance.
- Added external credential detection for Codex CLI to streamline authentication.
- Refactored various components to ensure consistent handling of authentication and model selection across the application.
Add a new hooks system allowing users to run custom code at key lifecycle points in the agent's operation. This includes support for events such as `gateway:startup`, `session:start`, `agent:step`, and more. Documentation for creating hooks and available events has been added to `README.md` and a new `hooks.md` file. Additionally, integrate step callbacks in the agent to facilitate hook execution during tool-calling iterations.
Refactor the extraction of MEDIA paths to collect them from the history before processing the current turn's messages. This change ensures that MEDIA tags are deduplicated based on previously seen paths, preventing TTS voice messages from being re-attached in subsequent replies. This addresses the issue outlined in #160.
/retry and /undo set session_entry.conversation_history which does not
exist on SessionEntry. The truncated history was never written to disk,
so the next message reload picked up the full unmodified transcript.
Added SessionStore.rewrite_transcript() that persists changes to both
the JSONL file and SQLite database, and updated both commands to use it.
/reset accessed self.session_store._sessions which does not exist on
SessionStore (the correct attribute is _entries). Also replaced the
hand-coded session key with _generate_session_key() to fix WhatsApp DM
sessions using the wrong key format.
Closes#210
Fixes#160
The issue was that MEDIA tags were being extracted from ALL messages
in the conversation history, not just messages from the current turn.
This caused TTS voice messages generated in earlier turns to be
re-attached to every subsequent reply.
The fix:
- Track history_len before calling run_conversation
- Only scan messages AFTER history_len for MEDIA tags
- Add comprehensive tests to prevent regression
This ensures each voice message is sent exactly once, when it's
generated, not on every subsequent message in the session.
- Sanitize filenames in cache_document_from_bytes to prevent path traversal (strip directory components, null bytes, resolve check)
- Reject documents with None file_size instead of silently allowing download
- Cap text file injection at 100 KB to prevent oversized prompt payloads
- Sanitize display_name in run.py context notes to block prompt injection via filenames
- Add 35 unit tests covering document cache utilities and Telegram document handling

This update introduces a pairing store for code-based user authorization and an event hook system within the GatewayRunner class. These enhancements aim to improve user authorization processes and facilitate event-driven functionalities in the gateway.
This change removes the session_db parameter from AIAgent instantiations in gateway/run.py, addressing issues related to session management. The previous implementation caused errors when session_db was not properly initialized, leading to failures in session_search functionality.
When running via the gateway (e.g. Telegram), the session_search tool
returned: {"error": "session_search must be handled by the agent loop"}
Root cause:
- gateway/run.py creates AIAgent without passing session_db=
- self._session_db is None in the agent instance
- The dispatch condition "elif function_name == 'session_search' and self._session_db"
skips when _session_db is None, falling through to the generic error
This fix:
1. Initializes self._session_db in GatewayRunner.__init__()
2. Passes session_db to all AIAgent instantiations in gateway/run.py
3. Adds defensive fallback in run_agent.py to return a clear error when
session_db is unavailable, instead of falling through
Fixes#105
- Added configuration options for automatic session resets based on inactivity or daily boundaries in cli-config.yaml.
- Enhanced SessionResetPolicy class to support a "none" mode for no auto-resets.
- Implemented memory flushing before session resets in SessionStore to preserve important information.
- Updated setup wizard to guide users in configuring session reset preferences.
- Updated .env.example to clarify terminal backend configuration and its relationship with config.yaml.
- Modified gateway/run.py to ensure terminal settings from config.yaml take precedence over .env, improving consistency in environment variable handling.
- Added mapping for terminal configuration options to corresponding environment variables for better integration.
Opt-in persistent cross-session user modeling via Honcho. Reads
~/.honcho/config.json as single source of truth (shared with
Claude Code, Cursor, and other Honcho-enabled tools). Zero impact
when disabled or unconfigured.
- honcho_integration/ package (client, session manager, peer resolution)
- Host-based config resolution matching claude-honcho/cursor-honcho pattern
- Prefetch user context into system prompt per conversation turn
- Sync user/assistant messages to Honcho after each exchange
- query_user_context tool for mid-conversation dialectic reasoning
- Gated activation: requires ~/.honcho/config.json with enabled=true
Both entry points hardcoded Path.home() / ".hermes" for .env, config.yaml,
logs, and lock files. Now uses _hermes_home which reads HERMES_HOME env var
with ~/.hermes as default, matching cli.py and run_agent.py.
