Plain functions imported as class attributes in APIServerAdapter get
auto-bound as methods via Python's descriptor protocol. Every
self._cron_*() call injected self as the first positional argument,
causing TypeError on all 8 cron API endpoints at runtime.
Wrap each import with staticmethod() so self._cron_*() calls dispatch
correctly without modifying any call sites.

Add POST /v1/runs to start async agent runs and GET /v1/runs/{run_id}/events
for SSE streaming of typed lifecycle events (tool.started, tool.completed,
message.delta, reasoning.available, run.completed, run.failed).
Changes the internal tool_progress_callback signature from positional
(tool_name, preview, args) to event-type-first
(event_type, tool_name, preview, args, **kwargs). Existing consumers
filter on event_type and remain backward-compatible.
Adds concurrency limit (_MAX_CONCURRENT_RUNS=10) and orphaned run sweep.
Fixes logic inversion in cli.py _on_tool_progress where the original PR
would have displayed internal tools instead of non-internal ones.

Removing an env-seeded credential (e.g. from OPENROUTER_API_KEY) via
'hermes auth' previously had no lasting effect -- the entry was deleted
from auth.json but load_pool() re-created it on the next call because
the env var was still set.
Now auth_remove_command detects env-sourced entries (source starts with
'env:') and calls the new remove_env_value() to strip the var from both
.env and os.environ, preventing re-seeding.
Changes:
- hermes_cli/config.py: add remove_env_value() -- atomically removes a
line from .env and pops from os.environ
- hermes_cli/auth_commands.py: auth_remove_command clears env var when
removing an env-seeded pool entry
- 8 new tests covering remove_env_value and the full zombie-credential
lifecycle (remove -> reload -> stays gone)
Previously, typing a /command that isn't a built-in, plugin, or skill
would silently fall through to the LLM as plain text. The model often
interprets it as a loose instruction and invents unrelated tool calls —
e.g. a stray /claude_code slipped through and the model fabricated a
delegate_task invocation that got stuck in an OAuth loop.
Now we check GATEWAY_KNOWN_COMMANDS after the skill / plugin /
unavailable-skill lookups and return an actionable message pointing the
user at /commands. The user gets feedback, and the agent doesn't waste
a round-trip guessing what /foo-bar was supposed to mean.
Telegram's Bot API disallows hyphens in command names, so
_build_telegram_menu registers /claude-code as /claude_code. When the
user taps it from autocomplete, the gateway dispatch did a direct
lookup against skill_cmds (keyed on the hyphenated form) and missed,
silently falling through to the LLM as plain text. The model would
then typically call delegate_task, spawning a Hermes subagent instead
of invoking the intended skill.
Normalize underscores to hyphens in skill and plugin command lookup,
matching the existing pattern in _check_unavailable_skill.
Telegram polling can inherit a stale webhook registration when a deployment
switches transport modes, which leaves getUpdates idle even though the gateway
starts cleanly. Outbound send also treats Telegram retry_after responses as
terminal errors, so brief flood control can drop tool progress and replies.
Constraint: Keep the PR narrowly scoped to upstream/main Telegram adapter behavior
Rejected: Port OpenClaw's broader polling supervisor and offset persistence | too broad for an isolated fix PR
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Polling mode should clear webhook state before starting getUpdates, and send-path retry logic must distinguish flood control from timeouts
Tested: uv run --extra dev pytest tests/gateway/test_telegram_* -q
Not-tested: Live Telegram webhook-to-polling migration and real Bot API 429 behavior
Replace the two-step stop/start restart with a single
launchctl kickstart -k call. When the gateway triggers a
restart from inside its own process tree, the old stop
command kills the shell before the start half is reached.
kickstart -k lets launchd handle the kill+restart atomically.
launchctl load/unload/start/stop are deprecated on macOS since 10.10
and fail silently on modern versions. This replaces them with the
current equivalents:
- load -> bootstrap gui/<uid> <plist>
- unload -> bootout gui/<uid>/<label>
- start -> kickstart gui/<uid>/<label>
- stop -> kill SIGTERM gui/<uid>/<label>
Adds _launchd_domain() helper returning the gui/<uid> target domain.
Updates test assertions to match the new command signatures.
Fixes#4820
When an agent was actively processing a message, /status sent via Telegram
(or any gateway) was queued as a pending interrupt instead of being dispatched
immediately. The base platform adapter's handle_message() only had special-case
bypass logic for /approve and /deny, so /status fell through to the default
interrupt path and was never processed as a system command.
Apply the same bypass pattern used by /approve//deny: detect cmd == 'status'
inside the active-session guard, dispatch directly to the message handler, and
send the response without touching session lifecycle or interrupt state.
Adds a regression test that verifies /status is dispatched and responded to
immediately even when _active_sessions contains an entry for the session.
The _session_expiry_watcher retried failed memory flushes forever
because exceptions were caught at debug level without setting
memory_flushed=True. Expired sessions with transient failures
(rate limits, network errors) would retry every 5 minutes
indefinitely, burning API quota and blocking gateway message
processing via 429 rate limit cascades.
Observed case: a March 19 session retried 28+ times over ~17 days,
causing repeated 429 errors that made Telegram unresponsive.
Add a per-session failure counter (_flush_failures) that gives up
after 3 consecutive attempts and marks the session as flushed to
break the loop.
The API server platform never passed fallback_model to AIAgent(),
so the fallback provider chain was always empty for requests through
the OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Load it via GatewayApp._load_fallback_model()
to match the behavior of Telegram/Discord/Slack platforms.
MCP server names (e.g. annas, libgen) are added to enabled_toolsets by
_get_platform_tools() but aren't registered in TOOLSETS until later when
_sync_mcp_toolsets() runs during tool discovery. The validation in
HermesCLI.__init__() fires before that, producing a false warning.
Fix: exclude configured MCP server names from the validation check.
CLI_CONFIG is already available at the call site, so no new imports needed.
Closes#5267 (alternative fix)
* feat: coerce tool call arguments to match JSON Schema types
LLMs frequently return numbers as strings ("42" instead of 42) and
booleans as strings ("true" instead of true). This causes silent
failures with MCP tools and any tool with strictly-typed parameters.
Added coerce_tool_args() in model_tools.py that runs before every tool
dispatch. For each argument, it checks the tool registry schema and
attempts safe coercion:
- "42" → 42 when schema says "type": "integer"
- "3.14" → 3.14 when schema says "type": "number"
- "true"/"false" → True/False when schema says "type": "boolean"
- Union types tried in order
- Original values preserved when coercion fails or is not applicable
Inspired by Block/goose tool argument coercion system.
* fix: accept reasoning-only responses without retries — set content to "(empty)"
Previously, when a model returned reasoning/thinking but no visible
content, we entered a 120-line retry/classify/compress/salvage cascade
that wasted 3+ API calls trying to "fix" the response. The model was
done thinking — retrying with the same input just burned money.
Now reasoning-only responses are accepted immediately:
- Reasoning stays in the `reasoning` field (semantically correct)
- Content set to "(empty)" — valid non-empty string every provider accepts
- No retries, no compression triggers, no salvage logic
- Session history contains "(empty)" not "" — prevents #2128 session
poisoning where empty assistant content caused prefill rejections
Removes ~120 lines, adds ~15. Saves 2-3 API calls per reasoning-only
response. Fixes#2128.

Three improvements to Matrix cron delivery:
1. Live adapter path: when the gateway is running, cron delivery now uses
the connected MatrixAdapter via run_coroutine_threadsafe instead of
the standalone HTTP PUT. This enables delivery to E2EE rooms where
the raw HTTP path cannot encrypt. Falls back to standalone on failure.
Threads adapters + event loop from gateway -> cron ticker -> tick() ->
_deliver_result(). (from #3767)
2. HTML formatted_body: _send_matrix() now converts markdown to HTML
using the optional markdown library, with h1-h6 to bold conversion
for Element X compatibility. Falls back to plain text if markdown
is not installed. Also adds random bytes to txn_id to prevent
collisions. (from #5236)
3. Origin fallback: when deliver="origin" but origin is null (jobs
created via API/scripts), falls back to HOME_CHANNEL env vars
in order: matrix -> telegram -> discord -> slack. (from #2641)

Previously, tool results exceeding 100K characters were silently chopped
with only a '[Truncated]' notice — the rest of the content was lost
permanently. The model had no way to access the truncated portion.
Now, oversized results are written to HERMES_HOME/cache/tool_responses/
and the model receives:
- A 1,500-char head preview for immediate context
- The file path so it can use read_file/search_files on the full output
This preserves the context window protection (inline content stays small)
while making the full data recoverable. Falls back to the old destructive
truncation if the file write fails.
Inspired by Block/goose's large response handler pattern.

* feat(gateway): live-stream /update output + forward interactive prompts
Adds real-time output streaming and interactive prompt forwarding for
the gateway /update command, so users on Telegram/Discord/etc see the
full update progress and can respond to prompts (stash restore, config
migration) without needing terminal access.
Changes:
hermes_cli/main.py:
- Add --gateway flag to 'hermes update' argparse
- Add _gateway_prompt() file-based IPC function that writes
.update_prompt.json and polls for .update_response
- Modify _restore_stashed_changes() to accept optional input_fn
parameter for gateway mode prompt forwarding
- cmd_update() uses _gateway_prompt when --gateway is set, enabling
interactive stash restore and config migration prompts
gateway/run.py:
- _handle_update_command: spawn with --gateway flag and
PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 for real-time output flushing
- Store session_key in .update_pending.json for cross-restart
session matching
- Add _update_prompt_pending dict to track sessions awaiting
update prompt responses
- Replace _watch_for_update_completion with _watch_update_progress:
streams output chunks every ~4s, detects .update_prompt.json and
forwards prompts to the user, handles completion/failure/timeout
- Add update prompt interception in _handle_message: when a prompt
is pending, the user's next message is written to .update_response
instead of being processed normally
- Preserve _send_update_notification as legacy fallback for
post-restart cases where adapter isn't available yet
File-based IPC protocol:
- .update_prompt.json: written by update process with prompt text,
default value, and unique ID
- .update_response: written by gateway with user's answer
- .update_output.txt: existing, now streamed in real-time
- .update_exit_code: existing completion marker
Tests: 16 new tests covering _gateway_prompt IPC, output streaming,
prompt detection/forwarding, message interception, and cleanup.
* feat: interactive buttons for update prompts (Telegram + Discord)
Telegram: Inline keyboard with ✓ Yes / ✗ No buttons. Clicking a button
answers the callback query, edits the message to show the choice, and
writes .update_response directly. CallbackQueryHandler registered on
the update_prompt: prefix.
Discord: UpdatePromptView (discord.ui.View) with green Yes / red No
buttons. Follows the ExecApprovalView pattern — auth check, embed color
update, disabled-after-click. Writes .update_response on click.
All platforms: /approve and /deny (and /yes, /no) now work as shorthand
for yes/no when an update prompt is pending. The text fallback message
instructs users to use these commands. Raw message interception still
works as a fallback for non-command responses.
Gateway watcher checks adapter for send_update_prompt method (class-level
check to avoid MagicMock false positives) and falls back to text prompt
with /approve instructions when unavailable.
* fix: block /update on non-messaging platforms (API, webhooks, ACP)
Add _UPDATE_ALLOWED_PLATFORMS frozenset that explicitly lists messaging
platforms where /update is permitted. API server, webhook, and ACP
platforms get a clear error directing them to run hermes update from
the terminal instead.
ACP and API server already don't reach _handle_message (separate
codepaths), and webhooks have distinct session keys that can't collide
with messaging sessions. This guard is belt-and-suspenders.
Resolve exact label matches before treating digit-only input as a positional index so destructive auth removal does not mis-target credentials named with numeric labels.

Persist structured exhaustion metadata from provider errors, use explicit reset timestamps when available, and expose label-based credential targeting in the auth CLI. This keeps long-lived Codex cooldowns from being misreported as one-hour waits and avoids forcing operators to manage entries by list position alone.
Constraint: Existing credential pool JSON needs to remain backward compatible with stored entries that only record status code and timestamp
Constraint: Runtime recovery must keep the existing retry-then-rotate semantics for 429s while enriching pool state with provider metadata
Rejected: Add a separate credential scheduler subsystem | too large for the Hermes pool architecture and unnecessary for this fix
Rejected: Only change CLI formatting | would leave runtime rotation blind to resets_at and preserve the serial-failure behavior
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: moderate
Reversibility: clean
Directive: Preserve structured rate-limit metadata when new providers expose reset hints; do not collapse back to status-code-only exhaustion tracking
Tested: Focused pytest slice for auth commands, credential pool recovery, and routing (272 passed); py_compile on changed Python files; hermes -w auth list/remove smoke test with temporary HERMES_HOME
Not-tested: Full repository pytest suite, broader gateway/integration flows outside the touched auth and pool paths
