The whatsapp reply_prefix bridging referenced config.platforms before
the config object was constructed, making it a silent NameError caught
by except Exception: pass.
Fix: fold reply_prefix into the per-platform bridging loop (introduced
in #1919) which correctly writes to gw_data dict pre-construction.
Removes the broken standalone whatsapp bridging block.

Adds model name and provider to the system prompt metadata block,
alongside the existing session ID and timestamp. These are frozen
at session start and don't change mid-conversation, so they won't
break prompt caching.
Update all SOUL.md documentation to reflect that it now occupies
slot #1 in the system prompt, replacing the hardcoded default identity.
Updated pages:
- user-guide/features/personality.md — SOUL.md is primary identity, not just a layer
- developer-guide/prompt-assembly.md — updated prompt layer order, context files list
- guides/use-soul-with-hermes.md — SOUL.md replaces built-in identity
- user-guide/configuration.md — updated context files table and directory tree

SOUL.md now loads in slot #1 of the system prompt, replacing the
hardcoded DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY. This lets users fully customize
the agent's identity and personality by editing ~/.hermes/SOUL.md
without it conflicting with the built-in identity text.
When SOUL.md is loaded as identity, it's excluded from the context
files section to avoid appearing twice. When SOUL.md is missing,
empty, unreadable, or skip_context_files is set, the hardcoded
DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY is used as a fallback.
The default SOUL.md (seeded on first run) already contains the full
Hermes personality, so existing installs are unaffected.

Adds the Hugging Face CLI (hf) reference as a built-in skill under
mlops/. Covers downloading/uploading models and datasets, repo
management, SQL queries on datasets, inference endpoints, Spaces,
buckets, and more.
Based on the official HF skill from huggingface/skills.
Add unauthorized_dm_behavior config (pair|ignore) with global default
and per-platform override. WhatsApp can silently drop unknown DMs
instead of sending pairing codes.
Adapted config bridging to work with gw_data dict (pre-construction)
rather than config object. Dropped implementation plan document.

The previous copilot_model_api_mode() checked the catalog's
supported_endpoints first and picked /chat/completions when a model
supported both endpoints. This is wrong — GPT-5+ models should use
the Responses API even when the catalog lists both.
Replicate opencode's shouldUseCopilotResponsesApi() logic:
- GPT-5+ models (gpt-5.4, gpt-5.3-codex, etc.) → Responses API
- gpt-5-mini → Chat Completions (explicit exception)
- Everything else (gpt-4o, claude, gemini, etc.) → Chat Completions
- Model ID pattern is the primary signal, catalog is secondary
The catalog fallback now only matters for non-GPT-5 models that might
exclusively support /v1/messages (e.g. Claude via Copilot).
Models are auto-detected from the live catalog at
api.githubcopilot.com/models — no hardcoded list required for
supported models, only a static fallback for when the API is
unreachable.
Adds /statusbar (alias /sb) to show/hide the bottom status bar that
displays model name, context usage, and session duration.
Uses ConditionalContainer so the bar takes zero space when hidden
rather than leaving a blank line.
- Add anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5
- Move gpt-5.4-pro and gpt-5.4-nano to bottom
- Fix minimax/minimax-m2.7 → minimax-m2.5 (m2.7 not on OpenRouter)
- Tag hunter-alpha and healer-alpha as free
- Place hunter/healer-alpha right below gpt-5.4-mini
Builds on PR #1879's Copilot integration with critical auth improvements
modeled after opencode's implementation:
- Add hermes_cli/copilot_auth.py with:
- OAuth device code flow (copilot_device_code_login) using the same
client_id (Ov23li8tweQw6odWQebz) as opencode and Copilot CLI
- Token type validation: reject classic PATs (ghp_*) with a clear
error message explaining supported token types
- Proper env var priority: COPILOT_GITHUB_TOKEN > GH_TOKEN > GITHUB_TOKEN
(matching Copilot CLI documentation)
- copilot_request_headers() with Openai-Intent, x-initiator, and
Copilot-Vision-Request headers (matching opencode)
- Update auth.py:
- PROVIDER_REGISTRY copilot entry uses correct env var order
- _resolve_api_key_provider_secret delegates to copilot_auth for
the copilot provider with proper token validation
- Update models.py:
- copilot_default_headers() now includes Openai-Intent and x-initiator
- Update main.py:
- _model_flow_copilot offers OAuth device code login when no token
is found, with manual token entry as fallback
- Shows supported vs unsupported token types
- 22 new tests covering token validation, env var priority, header
generation, and integration with existing auth infrastructure
* Improve tool batching independence checks
* fix: address review feedback on path-aware batching
- Log malformed/non-dict tool arguments at debug level before
falling back to sequential, instead of silently swallowing
the error into an empty dict
- Guard empty paths in _paths_overlap (unreachable in practice
due to upstream filtering, but makes the invariant explicit)
- Add tests: malformed JSON args, non-dict args, _paths_overlap
unit tests including empty path edge cases
- web_crawl is not a registered tool (only web_search/web_extract
are); no addition needed to _PARALLEL_SAFE_TOOLS

- Strip '_tools' suffix from internal toolset identifiers in the banner
(e.g. 'web_tools' -> 'web', 'homeassistant_tools' -> 'homeassistant')
- Stop appending '_tools' to unavailable toolset names
- Replace 6 hardcoded hex colors (#B8860B, #FFBF00, #FFF8DC) in toolset
rows, overflow line, and MCP server rows with the skin variables
(dim, accent, text) already resolved at the top of the function
Inspired by PR #1871 by @kshitijk4poor.
Adds 4 tests.
* fix: banner skill count now respects disabled skills and platform filtering
The banner's get_available_skills() was doing a raw rglob scan of
~/.hermes/skills/ without checking:
- Whether skills are disabled (skills.disabled config)
- Whether skills match the current platform (platforms: frontmatter)
This caused the banner to show inflated skill counts (e.g. '100 skills'
when many are disabled) and list macOS-only skills on Linux.
Fix: delegate to _find_all_skills() from tools/skills_tool which already
handles both platform gating and disabled-skill filtering.
* fix: system prompt and slash commands now respect disabled skills
Two more places where disabled skills were still surfaced:
1. build_skills_system_prompt() in prompt_builder.py — disabled skills
appeared in the <available_skills> system prompt section, causing
the agent to suggest/load them despite being disabled.
2. scan_skill_commands() in skill_commands.py — disabled skills still
registered as /skill-name slash commands in CLI help and could be
invoked.
Both now load _get_disabled_skill_names() and filter accordingly.
* fix: skill_view blocks disabled skills
skill_view() checked platform compatibility but not disabled state,
so the agent could still load and read disabled skills directly.
Now returns a clear error when a disabled skill is requested, telling
the user to enable it via hermes skills or inspect the files manually.

Only mention the hermes-agent-setup skill in STT failure notes (both
the direct user message and the agent context note) when the skill is
actually installed. Uses _find_skill() from skill_manager_tool.
Also confirmed: STT is the only user-facing failure case where the
setup skill hint helps. Vision failures are transient API issues,
runtime transcription errors indicate a configured-but-broken provider,
and platform startup warnings are server logs.
The standard install already includes MCP via .[all]. For users who
need to add it separately, the correct command is:
cd ~/.hermes/hermes-agent && uv pip install -e ".[mcp]"
The venv is created by uv, so bare 'pip' isn't available. All four
occurrences across 3 docs pages updated.
Recognize hermes_cli/main.py gateway command lines in gateway
process detection and PID validation so --replace reliably finds
existing gateway instances.
Adds a regression test covering script-style cmdline detection.
Closes#1830
Skill now covers full CLI usage (hermes setup, hermes skills, hermes
tools, hermes config, session management, etc.), config file reference,
and expanded gateway commands.
Agent context notes for STT failure now mention the hermes-agent-setup
skill is available to help users configure Hermes features.
Each configured MCP server now registers as its own toolset in TOOLSETS
(e.g. TOOLSETS['github'] = {tools: ['mcp_github_list_files', ...]}),
making raw server names resolvable in platform_toolsets overrides.
Previously MCP tools were only injected into hermes-* umbrella toolsets,
so gateway sessions using raw toolset names like ['terminal', 'github']
in platform_toolsets couldn't resolve MCP tools.
Skips server names that collide with built-in toolsets. Also handles
idempotent reloads (syncs toolsets even when no new servers connect).
Inspired by PR #1876 by @kshitijk4poor.
Adds 2 tests (standalone toolset creation + built-in collision guard).
* perf: cache base_url.lower() via property, consolidate triple load_config(), hoist set constant
run_agent.py:
- Add base_url property that auto-caches _base_url_lower on every
assignment, eliminating 12+ redundant .lower() calls per API cycle
across __init__, _build_api_kwargs, _supports_reasoning_extra_body,
and the main conversation loop
- Consolidate three separate load_config() disk reads in __init__
(memory, skills, compression) into a single call, reusing the
result dict for all three config sections
model_tools.py:
- Hoist _READ_SEARCH_TOOLS set to module level (was rebuilt inside
handle_function_call on every tool invocation)
* Use endpoint metadata for custom model context and pricing

When a user sends a voice message and STT isn't configured, the gateway
now sends a clear message directly to the user explaining how to set up
voice transcription, rather than relying on the agent to relay an
injected context note (which often gets misinterpreted).
Also adds a hermes-agent-setup bundled skill covering STT/TTS setup,
tool configuration, dependency installation, and troubleshooting.
Add _wait_for_gateway_exit() that polls get_running_pid() to confirm
the old gateway process has actually exited before starting a new one.
If the process doesn't exit within 5s, sends SIGKILL to the specific
PID. Uses the saved PID from gateway.pid (not launchd labels) so it
works correctly with multiple gateway instances under separate
HERMES_HOME directories.
Applied to both launchd_restart() and the manual restart path (replaces
the blind time.sleep(2)).
Inspired by PR #1881 by @AzothZephyr (race condition diagnosis).
Adds 4 tests.
When config.yaml had a non-default model (e.g. gpt-5.3-codex) and the
provider was openai-codex, _normalize_model_for_provider() would replace
it with the latest available codex model because _model_is_default only
checked the CLI argument, not the config value.
Now _model_is_default is False when config.yaml has a model that differs
from the global fallback (anthropic/claude-opus-4.6), so the user's
explicit config choice is preserved.
Fixes#1887
