- Empty string titles normalized to None (prevents uncaught IntegrityError
when two sessions both get empty-string titles via the unique index)
- Escape SQL LIKE wildcards (%, _) in resolve_session_by_title and
get_next_title_in_lineage to prevent false matches on titles like
'test_project' matching 'testXproject #2'
- Optimize list_sessions_rich from N+2 queries to a single query with
correlated subqueries (preview + last_active computed in SQL)
- Add /title slash command to gateway (Telegram, Discord, Slack, WhatsApp)
with set and show modes, uniqueness conflict handling
- Add /title to gateway /help text and _known_commands
- 12 new tests: empty string normalization, multi-empty-title safety,
SQL wildcard edge cases, gateway /title set/show/conflict/cross-platform
- /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
- Incremented schema version to 2 and added a new column `finish_reason` to the `messages` table.
- Implemented a method to flush un-logged messages to the session database, ensuring data integrity during conversation interruptions.
- Enhanced error handling to persist messages in various early-return scenarios, preventing data loss.
Two-part implementation:
Part A - Curated Bounded Memory:
- New memory tool (tools/memory_tool.py) with MEMORY.md + USER.md stores
- Character-limited (2200/1375 chars), § delimited entries
- Frozen snapshot injected into system prompt at session start
- Model manages pruning via replace/remove with substring matching
- Usage indicator shown in system prompt header
Part B - SQLite Session Store:
- New hermes_state.py with SessionDB class, FTS5 full-text search
- Gateway session.py rewritten to dual-write SQLite + legacy JSONL
- Compression-triggered session splitting with parent_session_id chains
- New session_search tool with Gemini Flash summarization of matched sessions
- CLI session lifecycle (create on launch, close on exit)
Also:
- System prompt now cached per session, only rebuilt on compression
(fixes prefix cache invalidation from date/time changes every turn)
- Config version bumped to 3, hermes doctor checks for new artifacts
- Disabled in batch_runner and RL environments
