Seed ~/.hermes/SOUL.md when missing, load SOUL only from HERMES_HOME, and inject raw SOUL content without wrapper text. If the file exists but is empty, nothing is added to the system prompt.
Extend the salvaged MCP filtering work so utility tools are also governed by policy and server capabilities. Store the registered tool subset per server so rediscovery and status reporting stay accurate after filtering.
Add optional config keys under each mcp_servers entry:
- tools.include: whitelist, only listed tools are registered
- tools.exclude: blacklist, all tools except listed are registered
- enabled: false: skip server entirely, no connection attempt
Backward-compatible: no config keys = all tools registered as before.
Tests: TestMCPSelectiveToolLoading (4 tests), 134 passed total.

Preserve the current terminal backend checks while surfacing actionable
preflight errors for unknown TERMINAL_ENV values, missing SSH host/user
configuration, and missing Modal credentials/config. Tighten the modal
regression test so it deterministically exercises the config-missing
path.
Add a restore prompt for interactive updates, keep the stash when the user declines, and print a post-restore warning that local changes were reapplied on top of updated code.

Preserves the MCP stdio command resolution and improved error diagnostics,
with deterministic regression tests for the npx/node PATH cases.

* feat: improve context compaction handoff summaries
Adapt PR #916 onto current main by replacing the old context summary marker
with a clearer handoff wrapper, updating the summarization prompt for
resume-oriented summaries, and preserving the current call_llm-based
compression path.
* fix: clearer error when docker backend is unavailable
* fix: preserve docker discovery in backend preflight
Follow up on salvaged PR #940 by reusing find_docker() during the new
availability check so non-PATH Docker Desktop installs still work. Add
a regression test covering the resolved executable path.
* test: make gateway async tests xdist-safe
Replace sync test usage of asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete()
with asyncio.run() so tests do not depend on an ambient current event loop.
Also create the email disconnect poll task inside a running loop. This fixes
xdist/CI failures where workers have no current loop in MainThread.
* feat(skills): add phone-calls skill for outbound AI voice calls
Reformulated from core tool (PR #847 feedback) into a skill with a
standalone helper script. No new dependencies — uses only Python stdlib.
Two providers supported:
- Bland.ai (default): simple setup, one API key
- Vapi: flexible, better voice quality via ElevenLabs/Deepgram + Twilio
Includes:
- SKILL.md with full procedure, safety rules, provider docs, pitfalls
- scripts/phone_call.py CLI helper (call, status, diagnose commands)
* feat(skills): expand phone-calls into optional telephony skill
Follow up on salvaged PR #965 by moving the capability into optional-skills
and broadening it from outbound AI calling to a full telephony skill. Add
Twilio number provisioning, env/state persistence, SMS/MMS, inbound SMS
polling, Vapi import helpers, and a provider decision tree while keeping
telephony out of core runtime code.
* docs(skills): clarify Hermes TTS telephony workflow

- 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
Follow-up on salvaged PR #975.
Bridge quick_commands from config.yaml into load_gateway_config(),
normalize non-dict quick command config at runtime, and add coverage
for GatewayConfig round-trips plus config.yaml bridging. This makes the
GatewayConfig quick-command fix complete for the real user-facing config
path implicated by issue #973.

Apply skin-aware prompt symbols and live prompt_toolkit color refresh,
replace lingering hardcoded accent output with active-skin colors, keep
ANSI-safe response rendering, preserve secret-capture and approval-prompt

refresh behavior.

Use asyncio.run in sync tests that were relying on an implicit current event loop. This makes the gateway send-image and Slack connect tests pass reliably under Python 3.11+ and xdist workers.
Add a /reasoning command across gateway adapters so users can
inspect or change reasoning effort without editing config by hand.
Reload reasoning settings from config.yaml before each agent run,
including background tasks, so the next message picks up the new
value consistently.

hermes setup hung indefinitely on headless SSH sessions, Docker
containers, and CI/CD environments because the interactive provider
selection menu could not receive input.
Two-layer fix:
1. sys.stdin.isatty() check — auto-detects non-interactive environments
2. --non-interactive flag support — already in CLI parser, now honored
In both cases the wizard exits immediately with helpful guidance
pointing users to 'hermes config set' commands.
Closes#905
Restore gateway/run.py to current main behavior while keeping tirith startup
and pattern_keys replay, preserve yolo and non-interactive bypass semantics in
the combined guard, and add regression tests for yolo and view-full flows.
- store cron-run sessions with source=cron instead of falling back to cli
- close the per-run SessionDB after completion
- add regression coverage for cron session_db/platform wiring
Integrate tirith as a pre-execution security scanner that detects
homograph URLs, pipe-to-interpreter patterns, terminal injection,
zero-width Unicode, and environment variable manipulation — threats
the existing 50-pattern dangerous command detector doesn't cover.
Architecture: gather-then-decide — both tirith and the dangerous
command detector run before any approval prompt, preventing gateway
force=True replay from bypassing one check when only the other was
shown to the user.
New files:
- tools/tirith_security.py: subprocess wrapper with auto-installer,
mandatory cosign provenance verification, non-blocking background
download, disk-persistent failure markers with retryable-cause
tracking (cosign_missing auto-clears when cosign appears on PATH)
- tests/tools/test_tirith_security.py: 62 tests covering exit code
mapping, fail_open, cosign verification, background install,
HERMES_HOME isolation, and failure recovery
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py: 21 integration tests for the
combined guard orchestration
Modified files:
- tools/approval.py: add check_all_command_guards() orchestrator,
add allow_permanent parameter to prompt_dangerous_approval()
- tools/terminal_tool.py: replace _check_dangerous_command with
consolidated check_all_command_guards
- cli.py: update _approval_callback for allow_permanent kwarg,
call ensure_installed() at startup
- gateway/run.py: iterate pattern_keys list on replay approval,
call ensure_installed() at startup
- hermes_cli/config.py: add security config defaults, split
commented sections for independent fallback
- cli-config.yaml.example: document tirith security config
Restore the ACP editor-integration implementation that was present on the
original PR branch but did not actually land in main.
Includes:
- acp_adapter/ server, session manager, event bridge, auth, permissions,
and tool helpers
- hermes acp subcommand and hermes-acp entry point
- hermes-acp curated toolset
- ACP registry manifest, setup guide, and ACP test suite
- jupyter-live-kernel data science skill from the original branch
Also updates the revived ACP code for current main by:
- resolving runtime providers through the modern shared provider router
- binding ACP sessions to per-session cwd task overrides
- tracking duplicate same-name tool calls with FIFO IDs
- restoring terminal approval callbacks after prompts
- normalizing supporting docs/skill metadata
Validated with tests/acp and the full pytest suite (-n0).
- Introduced _approval_lock to ensure that approval prompts are handled sequentially, preventing state clobbering from parallel delegation subtasks.
- Updated approval_callback and HermesCLI methods to utilize the lock for managing approval state and deadlines.
- Added tests for the config bridging logic to ensure correct environment variable mapping from config.yaml.
