Add _ensure_ssl_certs() that discovers CA certificate bundles before any
HTTP library is imported. Resolution order:
1. Python's ssl.get_default_verify_paths()
2. certifi (if installed)
3. Common distro/macOS paths
Only sets SSL_CERT_FILE if not already present in the environment.
Wrapped in a function (called immediately) to avoid polluting module
namespace.

Background process progress/completion messages were sent with only
chat_id, landing in the general topic instead of the originating forum
topic. Thread the thread_id from HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID through the
watcher payload and pass it as metadata to adapter.send() so Telegram
routes notifications to the correct topic.
The env var export (HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID in _set_session_env /
_clear_session_env) already existed on main — this commit adds the
missing watcher plumbing.

Restore local STT command fallback for voice transcription, detect whisper and ffmpeg in common local install paths, and avoid bogus no-provider messaging when only a backend-specific key is missing.
Complete the YAML null handling for all three SessionResetPolicy fields.
at_hour and idle_minutes already had null coalescing; mode was still
using data.get('mode', 'both') which returns None when the key exists
with an explicit null value.
Add regression test covering all-null input.

- Add 'emoji' field to ToolEntry and 'get_emoji()' to ToolRegistry
- Add emoji= to all 50+ registry.register() calls across tool files
- Add get_tool_emoji() helper in agent/display.py with 3-tier resolution:
skin override → registry default → hardcoded fallback
- Replace hardcoded emoji maps in run_agent.py, delegate_tool.py, and
gateway/run.py with centralized get_tool_emoji() calls
- Add 'tool_emojis' field to SkinConfig so skins can override per-tool
emojis (e.g. ares skin could use swords instead of wrenches)
- Add 11 tests (5 registry emoji, 6 display/skin integration)
- Update AGENTS.md skin docs table
Based on the approach from PR #1061 by ForgingAlex (emoji centralization
in registry). This salvage fixes several issues from the original:
- Does NOT split the cronjob tool (which would crash on missing schemas)
- Does NOT change image_generate toolset/requires_env/is_async
- Does NOT delete existing tests
- Completes the centralization (gateway/run.py was missed)
- Hooks into the skin system for full customizability
SSH persistent shell now defaults to true — non-local backends benefit
most from state persistence across execute() calls. Local backend
remains opt-in via TERMINAL_LOCAL_PERSISTENT env var.
New config.yaml option: terminal.persistent_shell (default: true)
Controls the default for non-local backends. Users can disable with:
hermes config set terminal.persistent_shell false
Precedence: per-backend env var > TERMINAL_PERSISTENT_SHELL > default.
Wired through cli.py, gateway/run.py, and hermes_cli/config.py so the
config.yaml value reaches terminal_tool via env var bridge.
Two changes to align Discord behavior with Slack:
1. Auto-thread on @mention (default: true)
- When someone @mentions the bot in a server channel, a thread is
automatically created from their message and the response goes there.
- Each thread gets its own isolated session (like Slack).
- Configurable via discord.auto_thread in config.yaml (default: true)
or DISCORD_AUTO_THREAD env var (env takes precedence).
- DMs and existing threads are unaffected.
2. Skip @mention in bot-participated threads
- Once the bot has responded in a thread (auto-created or manually
entered), subsequent messages in that thread no longer require
@mention. Users can just type normally.
- Tracked via in-memory set (_bot_participated_threads). After a
gateway restart, users need to @mention once to re-establish.
- Threads the bot hasn't participated in still require @mention.
Config change:
discord:
auto_thread: true # new, added to DEFAULT_CONFIG
Tests: 7 new tests covering auto-thread default, disable, bot thread
participation tracking, and mention skip logic. All 903 gateway tests pass.
When a cronjob is created from within a Telegram or Slack thread,
deliver=origin was posting to the parent channel instead of the thread.
Root cause: the gateway never set HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID in the
session environment, so cronjob_tools.py could not capture thread_id
into the job's origin metadata — even though the scheduler already
reads origin.get('thread_id').
Fix:
- gateway/run.py: set HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID when thread_id is
present on the session context, and clear it in _clear_session_env
- tools/cronjob_tools.py: read HERMES_SESSION_THREAD_ID into origin
Closes#1219
Hermes startup entrypoints now load ~/.hermes/.env and project fallback env files with user config taking precedence over stale shell-exported values. This makes model/provider/base URL changes in .env actually take effect after restarting Hermes. Adds a shared env loader plus regression coverage, and reproduces the original bug case where OPENAI_BASE_URL and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER remained stuck on old shell values before import.
Add an explicit messaging-extra install hint to the missing PyNaCl/davey error path, cover it with a voice-channel join regression test, and skip the low-level NaCl packet tests when PyNaCl is not installed locally.
When PyNaCl or davey is not installed, joining a voice channel fails
with a raw exception. Now shows a human-readable message pointing
the user to reinstall with voice support.
Closes#1336
After bot leave/rejoin, Discord doesn't resend SPEAKING events for
users already in the channel. This left SSRC unmapped and all audio
was silently dropped by DAVE decrypt.
Fixes:
- Skip DAVE for unknown SSRCs instead of dropping (passthrough)
- Handle "UnencryptedWhenPassthroughDisabled" DAVE errors gracefully
- Auto-infer user_id from sole allowed member in voice channel
- Pass allowed_user_ids to VoiceReceiver for secure inference
Discord drops the UDP voice route after ~60s of silence - no packets
arrive even when users start speaking again. Send an Opus silence
frame every 15s to keep the UDP session alive.
play_tts was returning success without playing anything when bot was
in a voice channel. Now it calls play_in_voice_channel directly.
Simplified skip_double dedup: base adapter handles voice input TTS
via play_tts (which now works for VC), runner skips to avoid double.
Track adapter background message-processing tasks, cancel them during gateway shutdown, and interrupt running agents before disconnecting adapters. This prevents old gateway instances from continuing in-flight work after stop/replace, which was contributing to the restart-time task continuation/flicker behavior reported in #1414. Adds regression coverage for adapter task cancellation and shutdown interrupts.
- bridge stt.enabled from config.yaml into gateway runtime config
- preserve the flag in GatewayConfig serialization
- skip gateway voice transcription when STT is disabled
- add regression tests for config loading and disabled transcription flow
Salvaged from PR #1115 onto current main by reusing the shared
Discord file-attachment helper for local video and document sends,
including file_name support for documents and regression coverage.
The disconnect() method was unconditionally calling updater.stop() and
app.stop(), causing errors when:
- The updater was not running (RuntimeError: This Updater is not running!)
- The app was None (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute)
Changes:
- Check if updater exists and is running before stopping
- Check if app is running before stopping
- Only log warnings for actual errors, not expected shutdown states
Fixes spurious warnings during gateway shutdown.
Add base_url/api_key overrides for auxiliary tasks and delegation so users can
route those flows straight to a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint without
having to rely on provider=main or named custom providers.
Also clear gateway session env vars in test isolation so the full suite stays
deterministic when run from a messaging-backed agent session.
Salvaged PR #1052 onto current main with the contributor commit preserved plus a small follow-up for current-main conflict resolution and safe command quoting.
Follow up on salvaged PR #1052.
Restore current-main gateway lifecycle handling after conflict resolution and
adapt the update fallback to use shell-quoted argv parts safely.
Cancel any queued media-group flush tasks during Telegram adapter disconnect
and clear the buffered events map so shutdown can't leave a pending album
flush behind. Add a regression test covering disconnect before the debounce
window expires.
When shutil.which('hermes') returns None, _resolve_hermes_bin() now tries
sys.executable -m hermes_cli.main as a fallback. This handles setups where
Hermes is launched via a venv or module invocation and the hermes symlink is
not on PATH for the gateway process.
Fixes#1049
Telegram albums arrive as multiple updates with a shared media_group_id.
Previously each image triggered a separate MessageEvent, causing the agent
to interrupt itself when describing the first image.
- Add 0.8s debounce window for media group items
- Merge attachments into single MessageEvent
- Add regression test for photo album buffering
Salvages the two still-relevant fixes from PR #993 onto current main:
- use a 3-tuple LOCAL delivery key so explicit/local-origin targets are not duplicated
- shut down the previous agent-loop ThreadPoolExecutor when resizing the global pool
Adds regression tests for both behaviors.
Prevent gateway.platforms.discord from crashing at import time when discord.py is unavailable. Python 3.11 eagerly evaluates annotations, so using discord.Interaction and similar annotations caused an AttributeError after the optional import fallback set discord=None. Add postponed annotation evaluation and a regression test covering import without discord installed.
- store gateway PID metadata and validate the live process before trusting gateway.pid
- auto-refresh outdated systemd user units before start/restart so installs pick up --replace fixes
- sweep stray manual gateway processes after service stops
- add regression tests for PID validation and service drift recovery
Use getattr() when returning model metadata from GatewayRunner._run_agent so fake agents and minimal stubs without a model attribute do not break unrelated gateway flows while preserving the session-model backfill behavior.
Gateway sessions end up with model=NULL because the session row is
created before AIAgent is constructed. After the agent responds,
update_session() writes token counts but never fills in the model.
Thread agent.model through _run_agent()'s return dict into
update_session() → update_token_counts(). The SQL uses
COALESCE(model, ?) so it only fills NULL rows — never overwrites
a model already set at creation time (e.g. CLI sessions).
If the agent falls back to a different provider, agent.model is
updated in-place by _try_activate_fallback(), so the recorded value
reflects whichever model actually produced the response.
Fixes#987
- Use imap.uid() for search and fetch instead of imap.search/fetch.
Sequence numbers shift when messages are deleted, causing the adapter
to skip new messages or reprocess old ones. UIDs are stable.
- Pass ssl.create_default_context() to starttls() so the server
certificate is actually verified. Without it smtplib uses
ssl._create_stdlib_context() which skips verification.
