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)

anthropic/claude-opus-4.6 (OpenRouter format) was being sent as
claude-opus-4.6 to the Anthropic API, which expects claude-opus-4-6
(hyphens, not dots).
normalize_model_name() now converts dots to hyphens after stripping
the provider prefix, matching Anthropic's naming convention.
Fixes 404: 'model: claude-opus-4.6 was not found'
Fixes Anthropic OAuth/subscription authentication end-to-end:
Auth failures (401 errors):
- Add missing 'claude-code-20250219' beta header for OAuth tokens. Both
clawdbot and OpenCode include this alongside 'oauth-2025-04-20' — without
it, Anthropic's API rejects OAuth tokens with 401 authentication errors.
- Fix _fetch_anthropic_models() to use canonical beta headers from
_COMMON_BETAS + _OAUTH_ONLY_BETAS instead of hardcoding.
Token refresh:
- Add _refresh_oauth_token() — when Claude Code credentials from
~/.claude/.credentials.json are expired but have a refresh token,
automatically POST to console.anthropic.com/v1/oauth/token to get
a new access token. Uses the same client_id as Claude Code / OpenCode.
- Add _write_claude_code_credentials() — writes refreshed tokens back
to ~/.claude/.credentials.json, preserving other fields.
- resolve_anthropic_token() now auto-refreshes expired tokens before
returning None.
Config contamination:
- Anthropic's _model_flow_anthropic() no longer saves base_url to config.
Since resolve_runtime_provider() always hardcodes Anthropic's URL, the
stale base_url was contaminating other providers when users switched
without re-running 'hermes model' (e.g., Codex hitting api.anthropic.com).
- _update_config_for_provider() now pops base_url when passed empty string.
- Same fix in setup.py.
Flow/UX (hermes model command):
- CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN env var now checked in credential detection
- Reauthentication option when existing credentials found
- run_oauth_setup_token() runs 'claude setup-token' as interactive
subprocess, then auto-detects saved credentials
- Clean has_creds/needs_auth flow in both main.py and setup.py
Tests (14 new):
- Beta header assertions for claude-code-20250219
- Token refresh: successful refresh with credential writeback, failed
refresh returns None, no refresh token returns None
- Credential writeback: new file creation, preserving existing fields
- Auto-refresh integration in resolve_anthropic_token()
- CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN fallback, credential file auto-discovery
- run_oauth_setup_token() (5 scenarios)
Haiku models don't support extended thinking at all. Without this
guard, claude-haiku-4-5-20251001 would receive type=enabled +
budget_tokens and return a 400 error.
Incorporates the fix from PR #1127 (by frizynn) on top of #1128's
adaptive thinking refactor.
Verified live with Claude Code OAuth:
claude-opus-4-6 → adaptive thinking ✓
claude-haiku-4-5 → no thinking params ✓
claude-sonnet-4 → enabled thinking ✓
For Claude 4.6 models (Opus and Sonnet), the Anthropic API rejects
budget_tokens when thinking.type is 'adaptive'. This was causing a
400 error: 'thinking.adaptive.budget_tokens: Extra inputs are not
permitted'.
Changes:
- Send thinking: {type: 'adaptive'} without budget_tokens for 4.6
- Move effort control to output_config: {effort: ...} per Anthropic docs
- Map Hermes effort levels to Anthropic effort levels (xhigh->max, etc.)
- Narrow adaptive detection to 4.6 models only (4.5 still uses manual)
- Add tests for adaptive thinking on 4.6 and manual thinking on pre-4.6
Fixes#1126
Remaining issues from deep scan:
Adapter (agent/anthropic_adapter.py):
- Add _sanitize_tool_id() — Anthropic requires IDs matching [a-zA-Z0-9_-],
now strips invalid chars and ensures non-empty (both tool_use and tool_result)
- Empty tool result content → '(no output)' placeholder (Anthropic rejects empty)
- Set temperature=1 when thinking type='enabled' on older models (required)
- normalize_model_name now case-insensitive for 'Anthropic/' prefix
- Fix stale docstrings referencing only ~/.claude/.credentials.json
Agent loop (run_agent.py):
- Guard memory flush path (line ~2684) — was calling self.client.chat.completions
which is None in anthropic_messages mode. Now routes through Anthropic client.
- Guard summary generation path (line ~3171) — same crash when reaching
iteration limit. Now builds proper Anthropic kwargs and normalizes response.
- Guard retry summary path (line ~3200) — same fix for the summary retry loop.
All three self.client.chat.completions.create() calls outside the main
loop now have anthropic_messages branches to prevent NoneType crashes.
Fixes from comprehensive code review and cross-referencing with
clawdbot/OpenCode implementations:
CRITICAL:
- Add one-shot guard (anthropic_auth_retry_attempted) to prevent
infinite 401 retry loops when credentials keep changing
- Fix _is_oauth_token(): managed keys from ~/.claude.json are NOT
regular API keys (don't start with sk-ant-api). Inverted the logic:
only sk-ant-api* is treated as API key auth, everything else uses
Bearer auth + oauth beta headers
HIGH:
- Wrap json.loads(args) in try/except in message conversion — malformed
tool_call arguments no longer crash the entire conversation
- Raise AuthError in runtime_provider when no Anthropic token found
(was silently passing empty string, causing confusing API errors)
- Remove broken _try_anthropic() from auxiliary vision chain — the
centralized router creates an OpenAI client for api_key providers
which doesn't work with Anthropic's Messages API
MEDIUM:
- Handle empty assistant message content — Anthropic rejects empty
content blocks, now inserts '(empty)' placeholder
- Fix setup.py existing_key logic — set to 'KEEP' sentinel instead
of None to prevent falling through to the auth choice prompt
- Add debug logging to _fetch_anthropic_models on failure
Tests: 43 adapter tests (2 new for token detection), 3197 total passed
- Add _fetch_anthropic_models() to hermes_cli/models.py — hits the
Anthropic /v1/models endpoint to get the live model catalog. Handles
both API key and OAuth token auth headers.
- Wire it into provider_model_ids() so both 'hermes model' and
'hermes setup model' show the live list instead of a stale static one.
- Update static _PROVIDER_MODELS fallback with full current catalog:
opus-4-6, sonnet-4-6, opus-4-5, sonnet-4-5, opus-4, sonnet-4, haiku-4-5
- Update model_metadata.py with context lengths for all current models.
- Fix thinking parameter for 4.5+ models: use type='adaptive' instead
of type='enabled' (Anthropic deprecated 'enabled' for newer models,
warns at runtime). Detects model version from the model name string.
Verified live:
hermes model → Anthropic → auto-detected creds → shows 7 live models
hermes chat --provider anthropic --model claude-opus-4-6 → works
The critical bug: read_claude_code_credentials() only looked at
~/.claude/.credentials.json, but Claude Code's native binary (v2.x,
Bun-compiled) stores credentials in ~/.claude.json at the top level
as 'primaryApiKey'. The .credentials.json file is only written by
older npm-based installs.
Now checks both locations in priority order:
1. ~/.claude.json → primaryApiKey (native binary, v2.x)
2. ~/.claude/.credentials.json → claudeAiOauth.accessToken (legacy)
Verified live: hermes model → Anthropic → auto-detected credentials →
claude-sonnet-4-20250514 → 'Hello there, how are you?' (5 words)
* fix: stop rejecting unlisted models + auto-detect from /models endpoint
validate_requested_model() now accepts models not in the provider's API
listing with a warning instead of blocking. Removes hardcoded catalog
fallback for validation — if API is unreachable, accepts with a warning.
Model selection flows (setup + /model command) now probe the provider's
/models endpoint to get the real available models. Falls back to
hardcoded defaults with a clear warning when auto-detection fails:
'Could not auto-detect models — use Custom model if yours isn't listed.'
Z.AI setup no longer excludes GLM-5 on coding plans.
* fix: use hermes-agent.nousresearch.com as HTTP-Referer for OpenRouter
OpenRouter scrapes the favicon/logo from the HTTP-Referer URL for app
rankings. We were sending the GitHub repo URL, which gives us a generic
GitHub logo. Changed to the proper website URL so our actual branding
shows up in rankings.
Changed in run_agent.py (main agent client) and auxiliary_client.py
(vision/summarization clients).
Feedback fixes:
1. Revert _convert_vision_content — vision is handled by the vision_analyze
tool, not by converting image blocks inline in conversation messages.
Removed the function and its tests.
2. Add Anthropic to 'hermes model' (cmd_model in main.py):
- Added to provider_labels dict
- Added to providers selection list
- Added _model_flow_anthropic() with Claude Code credential auto-detection,
API key prompting, and model selection from catalog.
3. Wire up Anthropic as a vision-capable auxiliary provider:
- Added _try_anthropic() to auxiliary_client.py using claude-sonnet-4
as the vision model (Claude natively supports multimodal)
- Added to the get_vision_auxiliary_client() auto-detection chain
(after OpenRouter/Nous, before Codex/custom)
Cache tracking note: the Anthropic cache metrics branch in run_agent.py
(cache_read_input_tokens / cache_creation_input_tokens) is in the correct
place — it's response-level parsing, same location as the existing
OpenRouter cache tracking. auxiliary_client.py has no cache tracking.
After studying clawdbot (OpenClaw) and OpenCode implementations:
## Beta headers
- Add interleaved-thinking-2025-05-14 and fine-grained-tool-streaming-2025-05-14
as common betas (sent with ALL auth types, not just OAuth)
- OAuth tokens additionally get oauth-2025-04-20
- API keys now also get the common betas (previously got none)
## Vision/image support
- Add _convert_vision_content() to convert OpenAI multimodal format
(image_url blocks) to Anthropic format (image blocks with base64/url source)
- Handles both data: URIs (base64) and regular URLs
## Role alternation enforcement
- Anthropic strictly rejects consecutive same-role messages (400 error)
- Add post-processing step that merges consecutive user/assistant messages
- Handles string, list, and mixed content types during merge
## Tool choice support
- Add tool_choice parameter to build_anthropic_kwargs()
- Maps OpenAI values: auto→auto, required→any, none→omit, name→tool
## Cache metrics tracking
- Anthropic uses cache_read_input_tokens / cache_creation_input_tokens
(different from OpenRouter's prompt_tokens_details.cached_tokens)
- Add api_mode-aware branch in run_agent.py cache stats logging
## Credential refresh on 401
- On 401 error during anthropic_messages mode, re-read credentials
via resolve_anthropic_token() (picks up refreshed Claude Code tokens)
- Rebuild client if new token differs from current one
- Follows same pattern as Codex/Nous 401 refresh handlers
## Tests
- 44 adapter tests (8 new: vision conversion, role alternation, tool choice)
- Updated beta header tests to verify new structure
- Full suite: 3198 passed, 0 regressions
Root cause: two issues combined to create visual spam on Telegram/Discord:
1. build_tool_preview() preserved newlines from tool arguments. A preview
like 'import os\nprint("...")' rendered as 2+ visual lines per
progress entry on messaging platforms. This affected execute_code most
(code always has newlines), but could also hit terminal, memory,
send_message, session_search, and process tools.
2. No deduplication of identical progress messages. When models iterate
with execute_code using the same boilerplate code (common pattern),
each call produced an identical progress line. 9 calls x 2 visual
lines = 18 lines of identical spam in one message bubble.
Fixes:
- Added _oneline() helper to collapse all whitespace (newlines, tabs) to
single spaces. Applied to ALL code paths in build_tool_preview() —
both the generic path and every early-return path that touches user
content (memory, session_search, send_message, process).
- Added dedup in gateway progress_callback: consecutive identical messages
are collapsed with a repeat counter, e.g. 'execute_code: ... (x9)'
instead of 9 identical lines. The send_progress_messages async loop
handles dedup tuples by updating the last progress_line in-place.
* fix: ClawHub skill install — use /download ZIP endpoint
The ClawHub API v1 version endpoint only returns file metadata
(path, size, sha256, contentType) without inline content or download
URLs. Our code was looking for inline content in the metadata, which
never existed, causing all ClawHub installs to fail with:
'no inline/raw file content was available'
Fix: Use the /api/v1/download endpoint (same as the official clawhub
CLI) to download skills as ZIP bundles and extract files in-memory.
Changes:
- Add _download_zip() method that downloads and extracts ZIP bundles
- Retry on 429 rate limiting with Retry-After header support
- Path sanitization and binary file filtering for security
- Keep _extract_files() as a fallback for inline/raw content
- Also fix nested file lookup (version_data.version.files)
* chore: lower default compression threshold from 85% to 50%
Triggers context compression earlier — at 50% of the model's context
window instead of 85%. Updated in all four places where the default
is defined: context_compressor.py, cli.py, run_agent.py, config.py,
and gateway/run.py.
* fix: /reasoning command output ordering, display, and inline think extraction
Three issues with the /reasoning command:
1. Output interleaving: The command echo used print() while feedback
used _cprint(), causing them to render out-of-order under
prompt_toolkit's patch_stdout. Changed echo to use _cprint() so
all output renders through the same path in correct order.
2. Reasoning display not working: /reasoning show toggled a flag
but reasoning never appeared for models that embed thinking in
inline <think> blocks rather than structured API fields. Added
fallback extraction in _build_assistant_message to capture
<think> block content as reasoning when no structured reasoning
fields (reasoning, reasoning_content, reasoning_details) are
present. This feeds into both the reasoning callback (during
tool loops) and the post-response reasoning box display.
3. Feedback clarity: Added checkmarks to confirm actions, persisted
show/hide to config (was session-only before), and aligned the
status display for readability.
Tests: 7 new tests for inline think block extraction (41 total).
* feat: add /reasoning command to gateway (Telegram/Discord/etc)
The /reasoning command only existed in the CLI — messaging platforms
had no way to view or change reasoning settings. This adds:
1. /reasoning command handler in the gateway:
- No args: shows current effort level and display state
- /reasoning <level>: sets reasoning effort (none/low/medium/high/xhigh)
- /reasoning show|hide: toggles reasoning display in responses
- All changes saved to config.yaml immediately
2. Reasoning display in gateway responses:
- When show_reasoning is enabled, prepends a 'Reasoning' block
with the model's last_reasoning content before the response
- Collapses long reasoning (>15 lines) to keep messages readable
- Uses last_reasoning from run_conversation result dict
3. Plumbing:
- Added _show_reasoning attribute loaded from config at startup
- Propagated last_reasoning through _run_agent return dict
- Added /reasoning to help text and known_commands set
- Uses getattr for _show_reasoning to handle test stubs
* fix: improve Kimi model selection — auto-detect endpoint, add missing models
Kimi Coding Plan setup:
- New dedicated _model_flow_kimi() replaces the generic API-key flow
for kimi-coding. Removes the confusing 'Base URL' prompt entirely —
the endpoint is auto-detected from the API key prefix:
sk-kimi-* → api.kimi.com/coding/v1 (Kimi Coding Plan)
other → api.moonshot.ai/v1 (legacy Moonshot)
- Shows appropriate models for each endpoint:
Coding Plan: kimi-for-coding, kimi-k2.5, kimi-k2-thinking, kimi-k2-thinking-turbo
Moonshot: full model catalog
- Clears any stale KIMI_BASE_URL override so runtime auto-detection
via _resolve_kimi_base_url() works correctly.
Model catalog updates:
- Added kimi-for-coding (primary Coding Plan model) and kimi-k2-thinking-turbo
to models.py, main.py _PROVIDER_MODELS, and model_metadata.py context windows.
- Updated User-Agent from KimiCLI/1.0 to KimiCLI/1.3 (Kimi's coding
endpoint whitelists known coding agents via User-Agent sniffing).
- gateway/run.py: Take main's _resolve_gateway_model() helper
- hermes_cli/setup.py: Re-apply nous-api removal after merge brought
it back. Fix provider_idx offset (Custom is now index 3, not 4).
- tests/hermes_cli/test_setup.py: Fix custom setup test index (3→4)
Model selection now comes exclusively from config.yaml (set via
'hermes model' or 'hermes setup'). The LLM_MODEL env var is no longer
read or written anywhere in production code.
Why: env vars are per-process/per-user and would conflict in
multi-agent or multi-tenant setups. Config.yaml is file-based and
can be scoped per-user or eventually per-session.
Changes:
- cli.py: Read model from CLI_CONFIG only, not LLM_MODEL/OPENAI_MODEL
- hermes_cli/auth.py: _save_model_choice() no longer writes LLM_MODEL
to .env
- hermes_cli/setup.py: Remove 12 save_env_value('LLM_MODEL', ...)
calls from all provider setup flows
- gateway/run.py: Remove LLM_MODEL fallback (HERMES_MODEL still works
for gateway process runtime)
- cron/scheduler.py: Same
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: Remove LLM_MODEL from custom endpoint
model detection
Phase 2 of the provider router migration — route the main agent's
client construction and fallback activation through
resolve_provider_client() instead of duplicated ad-hoc logic.
run_agent.py:
- __init__: When no explicit api_key/base_url, use
resolve_provider_client(provider, raw_codex=True) for client
construction. Explicit creds (from CLI/gateway runtime provider)
still construct directly.
- _try_activate_fallback: Replace _resolve_fallback_credentials and
its duplicated _FALLBACK_API_KEY_PROVIDERS / _FALLBACK_OAUTH_PROVIDERS
dicts with a single resolve_provider_client() call. The router
handles all provider types (API-key, OAuth, Codex) centrally.
- Remove _resolve_fallback_credentials method and both fallback dicts.
agent/auxiliary_client.py:
- Add raw_codex parameter to resolve_provider_client(). When True,
returns the raw OpenAI client for Codex providers instead of wrapping
in CodexAuxiliaryClient. The main agent needs this for direct
responses.stream() access.
3251 passed, 2 pre-existing unrelated failures.
Add centralized call_llm() and async_call_llm() functions that own the
full LLM request lifecycle:
1. Resolve provider + model from task config or explicit args
2. Get or create a cached client for that provider
3. Format request args (max_tokens handling, provider extra_body)
4. Make the API call with max_tokens/max_completion_tokens retry
5. Return the response
Config: expanded auxiliary section with provider:model slots for all
tasks (compression, vision, web_extract, session_search, skills_hub,
mcp, flush_memories). Config version bumped to 7.
Migrated all auxiliary consumers:
- context_compressor.py: uses call_llm(task='compression')
- vision_tools.py: uses async_call_llm(task='vision')
- web_tools.py: uses async_call_llm(task='web_extract')
- session_search_tool.py: uses async_call_llm(task='session_search')
- browser_tool.py: uses call_llm(task='vision'/'web_extract')
- mcp_tool.py: uses call_llm(task='mcp')
- skills_guard.py: uses call_llm(provider='openrouter')
- run_agent.py flush_memories: uses call_llm(task='flush_memories')
Tests updated for context_compressor and MCP tool. Some test mocks
still need updating (15 remaining failures from mock pattern changes,
2 pre-existing).
Route all remaining ad-hoc auxiliary LLM call sites through
resolve_provider_client() so auth, headers, and API format (Chat
Completions vs Responses API) are handled consistently in one place.
Files changed:
- tools/openrouter_client.py: Replace manual AsyncOpenAI construction
with resolve_provider_client('openrouter', async_mode=True). The
shared client module now delegates entirely to the router.
- tools/skills_guard.py: Replace inline OpenAI client construction
(hardcoded OpenRouter base_url, manual api_key lookup, manual
headers) with resolve_provider_client('openrouter'). Remove unused
OPENROUTER_BASE_URL import.
- trajectory_compressor.py: Add _detect_provider() to map config
base_url to a provider name, then route through
resolve_provider_client. Falls back to raw construction for
unrecognized custom endpoints.
- mini_swe_runner.py: Route default case (no explicit api_key/base_url)
through resolve_provider_client('openrouter') with auto-detection
fallback. Preserves direct construction when explicit creds are
passed via CLI args.
- agent/auxiliary_client.py: Fix stale module docstring — vision auto
mode now correctly documents that Codex and custom endpoints are
tried (not skipped).
Three interconnected fixes for auxiliary client infrastructure:
1. CENTRALIZED PROVIDER ROUTER (auxiliary_client.py)
Add resolve_provider_client(provider, model, async_mode) — a single
entry point for creating properly configured clients. Given a provider
name and optional model, it handles auth lookup (env vars, OAuth
tokens, auth.json), base URL resolution, provider-specific headers,
and API format differences (Chat Completions vs Responses API for
Codex). All auxiliary consumers should route through this instead of
ad-hoc env var lookups.
Refactored get_text_auxiliary_client, get_async_text_auxiliary_client,
and get_vision_auxiliary_client to use the router internally.
2. FIX CODEX VISION BYPASS (vision_tools.py)
vision_tools.py was constructing a raw AsyncOpenAI client from the
sync vision client's api_key/base_url, completely bypassing the Codex
Responses API adapter. When the vision provider resolved to Codex,
the raw client would hit chatgpt.com/backend-api/codex with
chat.completions.create() which only supports the Responses API.
Fix: Added get_async_vision_auxiliary_client() which properly wraps
Codex into AsyncCodexAuxiliaryClient. vision_tools.py now uses this
instead of manual client construction.
3. FIX COMPRESSION FALLBACK + VISION ERROR HANDLING
- context_compressor.py: Removed _get_fallback_client() which blindly
looked for OPENAI_API_KEY + OPENAI_BASE_URL (fails for Codex OAuth,
API-key providers, users without OPENAI_BASE_URL set). Replaced
with fallback loop through resolve_provider_client() for each
known provider, with same-provider dedup.
- vision_tools.py: Added error detection for vision capability
failures. Returns clear message to the model when the configured
model doesn't support vision, instead of a generic error.
Addresses #886
Allow users to interact with Hermes by sending and receiving emails.
Uses IMAP polling for incoming messages and SMTP for replies with
proper threading (In-Reply-To, References headers).
Integrates with all 14 gateway extension points: config, adapter
factory, authorization, send_message tool, cron delivery, toolsets,
prompt hints, channel directory, setup wizard, status display, and
env example.
65 tests covering config, parsing, dispatch, threading, IMAP fetch,
SMTP send, attachments, and all integration points.
- Add agent/embeddings.py with Embedder protocol, FastEmbedEmbedder, OpenAIEmbedder
- Factory function get_embedder() reads provider from config.yaml embeddings section
- Lazy initialization — no startup impact, model loaded on first embed call
- cosine_similarity() and cosine_similarity_matrix() utility functions included
- Add fastembed as optional dependency in pyproject.toml
- 30 unit tests, all passing
Closes#675
The KawaiiSpinner animation would occasionally spam dozens of duplicate
lines instead of overwriting in-place with \r. This happened because
prompt_toolkit's StdoutProxy processes each flush() as a separate
run_in_terminal() call — when the write thread is slow (busy event loop
during long tool executions), each \r frame gets its own call, and the
terminal layout save/restore between calls breaks the \r overwrite
semantics.
Fix: rate-limit flush() calls to at most every 0.4s. Between flushes,
\r-frame writes accumulate in StdoutProxy's buffer. When flushed, they
concatenate into one string (e.g. \r frame1 \r frame2 \r frame3) and
are written in a single run_in_terminal() call where \r works correctly.
The spinner still animates (flush ~2.5x/sec) but each flush batches
~3 frames, guaranteeing the \r collapse always works. Most visible
with execute_code and terminal tools (3+ second executions).
Vision auto-mode previously only tried OpenRouter, Nous, and Codex
for multimodal — deliberately skipping custom endpoints with the
assumption they 'may not handle vision input.' This caused silent
failures for users running local multimodal models (Qwen-VL, LLaVA,
Pixtral, etc.) without any cloud API keys.
Now custom endpoints are tried as a last resort in auto mode. If the
model doesn't support vision, the API call fails gracefully — but
users with local vision models no longer need to manually set
auxiliary.vision.provider: main in config.yaml.
Reported by @Spadav and @kotyKD.
Skills can now declare fallback_for_toolsets, fallback_for_tools,
requires_toolsets, and requires_tools in their SKILL.md frontmatter.
The system prompt builder filters skills automatically based on which
tools are available in the current session.
- Add _read_skill_conditions() to parse conditional frontmatter fields
- Add _skill_should_show() to evaluate conditions against available tools
- Update build_skills_system_prompt() to accept and apply tool availability
- Pass valid_tool_names and available toolsets from run_agent.py
- Backward compatible: skills without conditions always show; calling
build_skills_system_prompt() with no args preserves existing behavior
Closes#539
New config option:
security:
redact_secrets: false # default: true
When set to false, API keys, tokens, and passwords are shown in
full in read_file, search_files, and terminal output. Useful for
debugging auth issues where you need to verify the actual key value.
Bridged to both CLI and gateway via HERMES_REDACT_SECRETS env var.
The check is in redact_sensitive_text() itself, so all call sites
(terminal, file tools, log formatter) respect it.
The summary message was always injected as 'user' role, which causes
consecutive user messages when the last preserved head message is also
'user'. Some APIs reject this (400 error), and it produces malformed
training data.
Fix: check the role of the last head message and pick the opposite role
for the summary — 'user' after assistant/tool, 'assistant' after user.
Based on PR #328 by johnh4098. Closes#328.
