- 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)
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
