Cherry-picked from PR #2365 by @xerpert.
Three bugs preventing Signal image attachments from being processed:
1. signal-cli getAttachment RPC expects 'id', not 'attachmentId'
2. signal-cli daemon returns dict {"data": "base64..."} not raw base64
3. MessageType.IMAGE doesn't exist — correct enum is MessageType.PHOTO
The gateway created a fresh AIAgent per message, rebuilding the system
prompt (including memory, skills, context files) every turn. This broke
prompt prefix caching — providers like Anthropic charge ~10x more for
uncached prefixes.
Now caches AIAgent instances per session_key with a config signature.
The cached agent is reused across messages in the same session,
preserving the frozen system prompt and tool schemas. Cache is
invalidated when:
- Config changes (model, provider, toolsets, reasoning, ephemeral
prompt) — detected via signature mismatch
- /new, /reset, /clear — explicit session reset
- /model — global model change clears all cached agents
- /reasoning — global reasoning change clears all cached agents
Per-message state (callbacks, stream consumers, progress queues) is
set on the agent instance before each run_conversation() call.
This matches CLI behavior where a single AIAgent lives across all turns
in a session, with _cached_system_prompt built once and reused.
The MarkdownV2 format_message conversion left unescaped ( ) { }
in edge cases where placeholder processing didn't cover them (e.g.
partial link matches, URLs with parens). This caused Telegram to
reject the message with 'character ( is reserved and must be escaped'
and fall back to plain text — losing all formatting.
Added a safety-net pass (step 12) after placeholder restoration that
escapes any remaining bare ( ) { } outside code blocks and valid
MarkdownV2 link syntax.
The /title command would fail with 'Session not found in database.' when
used as the first command in a new session. This happened because:
1. Gateway creates session in session_store (in-memory)
2. But SQLite _session_db only gets sessions when agent flushes messages
3. set_session_title() does UPDATE which fails if row doesn't exist
Now we check if session exists in SQLite and create it if needed before
attempting to set the title.
Fixes: Session not found in database. error on /title in new chats
When streaming is enabled, text chunks are sent to the user in
real-time including raw MEDIA: tags. The normal post-processing in
_process_message_background is skipped when already_sent=True, so
MEDIA: files were never extracted or delivered — the user just saw
the raw MEDIA:/path/to/file text.
Fix: after streaming completes, extract MEDIA: tags and local file
paths from the response and deliver them via the platform adapter.
The text is already sent (with the raw tag visible in the stream),
but the actual files now get delivered as attachments.
Add @file:path, @folder:dir, @diff, @staged, @git:N, and @url:
references that expand inline before the message reaches the LLM.
Supports line ranges (@file:main.py:10-50), token budget enforcement
(soft warn at 25%, hard block at 50%), and path sandboxing for gateway.
Core module from PR #2090 by @kshitijk4poor. CLI and gateway wiring
rewritten against current main. Fixed asyncio.run() crash when called
from inside a running event loop (gateway).
Closes#682.
Fixes#1803. send_image_file, send_document, and send_video were missing
message_thread_id forwarding, causing them to fail in Telegram forum/supergroups
where thread_id is required. send_voice already handled this correctly. Adds
metadata parameter + message_thread_id to all three methods, and adds tests
covering the thread_id forwarding path.
Bare strings like "image", "audio", "document" were appended to
media_types, but downstream run.py checks mtype.startswith("image/")
and mtype.startswith("audio/"), which never matched. This caused all
Mattermost file attachments to be silently dropped from vision/STT
processing. Use the actual MIME type from file_info instead.
The gateway config loader read config.yaml but never merged its
`platforms` key into the runtime config dict. This meant that
platform-specific settings defined under `platforms.<name>.extra`
(e.g. webhook routes) were silently ignored unless the user also
duplicated them in the legacy gateway.json file.
Merge `yaml_cfg["platforms"]` into `gw_data["platforms"]` with a
shallow deep-merge of the `extra` dict so that gateway.json defaults
are preserved while config.yaml values take precedence.
Closes#2305
When streaming is enabled, the base adapter receives None from
_handle_message (already_sent=True) and cannot run auto-TTS for
voice input. The runner was unconditionally skipping voice input
TTS assuming the base adapter would handle it.
Now the runner takes over TTS responsibility when streaming has
already delivered the text response, so voice channel playback
works with both streaming on and off.
Streaming off behavior is unchanged (default already_sent=False
preserves the original code path exactly).

A single Telegram 409 Conflict from getUpdates permanently killed
Telegram polling with no recovery possible (retryable=False on
first occurrence). This is too aggressive for production use with
process supervisors.
Transient 409s are expected during:
- --replace handoffs where the old long-poll session lingers on
Telegram servers for a few seconds after SIGTERM
- systemd Restart=on-failure respawns that overlap with the dying
instance cleanup
Now _handle_polling_conflict() retries up to 3 times with a
10-second delay between attempts. The 30-second total retry window
lets stale server-side sessions expire. If all retries fail, the
error is still marked as permanently fatal — preserving the original
protection against genuine dual-instance conflicts.
Tests updated: split the single conflict test into two — one verifying
retry on transient conflict, one verifying fatal after exhausted
retries.
Closes#2296
Mirrors the CLI fix for the gateway /model handler. When the user is on
a custom provider (provider=custom, localhost, or 127.0.0.1 endpoint),
/model <name> no longer tries to auto-detect a provider switch.
Previously, typing /model openrouter/nvidia/nemotron:free on Telegram
while on a localhost endpoint would silently accept the model name on
the local server — auto-detection failed to match the free model, so
the provider stayed as custom with the localhost base_url. The user saw
'Model changed' but requests still went to localhost, which doesn't
serve that model.
Now shows the endpoint URL and provider:model syntax tip, matching
the CLI behavior.
- Convert ~~text~~ to ~text~ (MarkdownV2 strikethrough)
- Protect ||text|| from pipe escaping (MarkdownV2 spoiler)
- Preserve > at line start as blockquote instead of escaping it
- Update _strip_mdv2() to strip ~strikethrough~ and ||spoiler|| markers
- Add tests covering new formatting paths and edge cases
Adds /queue <prompt> (alias /q) that queues a message for the next
turn while the agent is busy, without interrupting the current run.
- CLI: /queue <prompt> puts it in _pending_input for the next turn
- Gateway: /queue <prompt> creates a pending MessageEvent on the
adapter, picked up after the current agent run finishes
- Enter still interrupts as usual (no behavior change)
- /queue with no prompt shows usage
- /queue when agent is idle tells user to just type normally

Salvaged from PR #2162 by @Zindar. Reply prefix changes excluded (already
on main via #1756 configurable prefix).
Bridge improvements (bridge.js):
- Download incoming images to ~/.hermes/image_cache/ via downloadMediaMessage
so the agent can actually see user-sent photos
- Add getMessage callback required for Baileys 7.x E2EE session
re-establishment (without it, some messages arrive as null)
- Build LID→phone reverse map for allowlist resolution (WhatsApp LID format)
- Add placeholder body for media without caption: [image received]
- Bind express to 127.0.0.1 instead of 0.0.0.0 for security
- Use 127.0.0.1 consistently throughout (more reliable than localhost)
Adapter improvements (whatsapp.py):
- Detect and reuse already-running bridge (only if status=connected)
- Handle local file paths from bridge-cached images in _build_message_event
- Don't kill external bridges on disconnect
- Use 127.0.0.1 throughout for consistency with bridge binding
Fix vs original PR: bridge reuse now checks status=connected, not just
HTTP 200. A disconnected bridge gets restarted instead of reused.

Two fixes for Telegram/gateway-specific bugs:
1. Anthropic adapter: strip orphaned tool_result blocks (mirror of
existing tool_use stripping). Context compression or session
truncation can remove an assistant message containing a tool_use
while leaving the subsequent tool_result intact. Anthropic rejects
these with a 400: 'unexpected tool_use_id found in tool_result
blocks'. The adapter now collects all tool_use IDs and filters out
any tool_result blocks referencing IDs not in that set.
2. Gateway: /reset and /new now bypass the running-agent guard (like
/status already does). Previously, sending /reset while an agent
was running caused the raw text to be queued and later fed back as
a user message with the same broken history — replaying the
corrupted session instead of resetting it. Now the running agent is
interrupted, pending messages are cleared, and the reset command
dispatches immediately.
Tests updated: existing tests now include proper tool_use→tool_result
pairs; two new tests cover orphaned tool_result stripping.

* feat: context pressure warnings for CLI and gateway
User-facing notifications as context approaches the compaction threshold.
Warnings fire at 60% and 85% of the way to compaction — relative to
the configured compression threshold, not the raw context window.
CLI: Formatted line with a progress bar showing distance to compaction.
Cyan at 60% (approaching), bold yellow at 85% (imminent).
◐ context ▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▱▱▱▱▱▱▱▱ 60% to compaction 100k threshold (50%) · approaching compaction
⚠ context ▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▰▱▱▱ 85% to compaction 100k threshold (50%) · compaction imminent
Gateway: Plain-text notification sent to the user's chat via the new
status_callback mechanism (asyncio.run_coroutine_threadsafe bridge,
same pattern as step_callback).
Does NOT inject into the message stream. The LLM never sees these
warnings. Flags reset after each compaction cycle.
Files changed:
- agent/display.py — format_context_pressure(), format_context_pressure_gateway()
- run_agent.py — status_callback param, _context_50/70_warned flags,

Support Signal 'Note to Self' messages in single-number setups where
signal-cli is linked as a secondary device on the user's own account.
syncMessage.sentMessage envelopes addressed to the bot's own account
are now promoted to dataMessage for normal processing, while other
sync events (read receipts, typing, etc.) are still filtered.
Echo-back prevention mirrors the WhatsApp bridge pattern:
- Track timestamps of recently sent messages (bounded set of 50)
- When a Note to Self sync arrives, check if its timestamp matches
a recent outbound — skip if so (agent echo-back)
- Only process sync messages that are genuinely user-initiated
Based on PR #2115 by @Stonelinks with added echo-back protection.
Place a sentinel in _running_agents immediately after the "already
running" guard check passes — before any await. Without this, the
numerous await points between the guard (line 1324) and agent
registration (track_agent at line 4790) create a window where a
second message for the same session can bypass the guard and start
a duplicate agent, corrupting the transcript.
The await gap includes: hook emissions, vision enrichment (external
API call), audio transcription (external API call), session hygiene
compression, and the run_in_executor call itself. For messages with
media attachments the window can be several seconds wide.
The sentinel is wrapped in try/finally so it is always cleaned up —
even if the handler raises or takes an early-return path. When the
real AIAgent is created, track_agent() overwrites the sentinel with
the actual instance (preserving interrupt support).
Also handles the edge case where a message arrives while the sentinel
is set but no real agent exists yet: the message is queued via the
adapter's pending-message mechanism instead of attempting to call
interrupt() on the sentinel object.
Two issues with /model preventing proper provider switching:
1. Bare provider names not detected: typing '/model nous' treated 'nous'
as a model name instead of triggering a provider switch. Fixed by adding
step 0 in detect_provider_for_model() that checks if the input matches
a known provider name/alias (excluding 'custom'/'openrouter' which need
explicit model names) and returns that provider's default model.
2. Custom endpoint details hidden: /model (no args) showed '[custom]' with
just a usage hint but no endpoint URL or model name. Now displays the
configured base_url for custom providers in both CLI and gateway.
Note: config base_url and OPENAI_BASE_URL are intentionally NOT cleared on
provider switch — dedicated provider paths (nous, anthropic, codex) have
their own credential resolution that ignores these, and clearing them would
destroy the user's custom endpoint config, preventing switching back.

The gateway approval system previously intercepted bare 'yes'/'no' text
from the user's next message to approve/deny dangerous commands. This was
fragile and dangerous — if the agent asked a clarify question and the user
said 'yes' to answer it, the gateway would execute the pending dangerous
command instead. (Fixes#1888)
Changes:
- Remove bare text matching ('yes', 'y', 'approve', 'ok', etc.) from
_handle_message approval check
- Add /approve and /deny as gateway-only slash commands in the command
registry
- /approve supports scoping: /approve (one-time), /approve session,
/approve always (permanent)
- Add 5-minute timeout for stale approvals
- Gateway appends structured instructions to the agent response when a
dangerous command is pending, telling the user exactly how to respond
- 9 tests covering approve, deny, timeout, scoping, and verification
that bare 'yes' no longer triggers execution

Previously, if an error occurred during response processing in
_process_message_background (e.g. during extract_media, send, or
any uncaught exception from the handler), the error was only logged
to server console and the user was left with radio silence — typing
indicator stops but no message arrives.
Now the outer except block attempts to send the error type and detail
(truncated to 300 chars) to the user's chat, matching the format
already used by the inner handler in gateway/run.py.

The whatsapp reply_prefix bridging referenced config.platforms before
the config object was constructed, making it a silent NameError caught
by except Exception: pass.
Fix: fold reply_prefix into the per-platform bridging loop (introduced
in #1919) which correctly writes to gw_data dict pre-construction.
Removes the broken standalone whatsapp bridging block.

Add unauthorized_dm_behavior config (pair|ignore) with global default

Adapted config bridging to work with gw_data dict (pre-construction)
rather than config object. Dropped implementation plan document.

Only mention the hermes-agent-setup skill in STT failure notes (both
the direct user message and the agent context note) when the skill is
actually installed. Uses _find_skill() from skill_manager_tool.
Also confirmed: STT is the only user-facing failure case where the
setup skill hint helps. Vision failures are transient API issues,
runtime transcription errors indicate a configured-but-broken provider,
and platform startup warnings are server logs.
Recognize hermes_cli/main.py gateway command lines in gateway
process detection and PID validation so --replace reliably finds
existing gateway instances.
Adds a regression test covering script-style cmdline detection.
Closes#1830
Skill now covers full CLI usage (hermes setup, hermes skills, hermes
tools, hermes config, session management, etc.), config file reference,
and expanded gateway commands.
Agent context notes for STT failure now mention the hermes-agent-setup
skill is available to help users configure Hermes features.
When a user sends a voice message and STT isn't configured, the gateway
now sends a clear message directly to the user explaining how to set up
voice transcription, rather than relying on the agent to relay an
injected context note (which often gets misinterpreted).
Also adds a hermes-agent-setup bundled skill covering STT/TTS setup,
tool configuration, dependency installation, and troubleshooting.
Fixes#1842
The MessageEvent dataclass expects 'reply_to_message_id' but the Matrix
connector was passing 'reply_to'. This caused replies to fail with:
MessageEvent.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'reply_to'
Changed the parameter name to match the dataclass definition.
Add first-class GitHub Copilot and Copilot ACP provider support across
model selection, runtime provider resolution, CLI sessions, delegated
subagents, cron jobs, and the Telegram gateway.
This also normalizes Copilot model catalogs and API modes, introduces a

- Distinguish plan usage limits (429 with usage_limit_reached) from transient rate limits
- Show approximate reset time in hours for plan limits
- Treat HTTP 500 with large sessions as context overflow (same as 400)
- Move history length check earlier for reuse across status codes
/ask was just 'send a message to the bot' via the slash command menu —
completely redundant since Discord bots already listen to channel messages.
Removed as part of salvaging PR #1827.
Stream consumer now splits messages that exceed the platform's
MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH. When accumulated text grows past the safe limit,
the current message is finalized and a new message is started for the
overflow — same as how normal sends chunk long responses.
Split point prefers line boundaries (rfind newline) for clean breaks.
Works for all platforms (Telegram 4096, Discord 2000, etc.) by reading
the adapter's MAX_MESSAGE_LENGTH at runtime.
Also added a safety net in the Telegram adapter: if edit_message_text
still hits MESSAGE_TOO_LONG (e.g. markdown formatting expansion), it
truncates and returns success so the stream consumer doesn't die.

* fix: NameError in OpenCode provider setup (prompt_text -> prompt)
The OpenCode Zen and OpenCode Go setup sections used prompt_text()
which is undefined. All other providers correctly use the local
prompt() function defined in setup.py. Fixes crash during
'hermes setup' when selecting either OpenCode provider.
* fix: Telegram streaming — config bridge, not-modified, flood control
Three fixes for gateway streaming:
1. Bridge streaming config from config.yaml into gateway runtime.
load_gateway_config() now reads the 'streaming' key from config.yaml
(same pattern as session_reset, stt, etc.), matching the docs.
Previously only gateway.json was read.
2. Handle 'Message is not modified' in Telegram edit_message().
This Telegram API error fires when editing with identical content —
a no-op, not a real failure. Previously it returned success=False
which made the stream consumer disable streaming entirely.
3. Handle RetryAfter / flood control in Telegram edit_message().
Fast providers can hit Telegram rate limits during streaming.
Now waits the requested retry_after duration and retries once,
instead of treating it as a fatal edit failure.
Also fixed double-edit on stream finish: the consumer now tracks
last-sent text and skips redundant edits, preventing the not-modified
error at the source.
* refactor: make config.yaml the primary gateway config source
Eliminates the per-key bridge pattern in load_gateway_config().
Previously gateway.json was the primary source and each config.yaml
key needed an individual bridge — easy to forget (streaming was
missing, causing garl4546's bug).
Now config.yaml is read first and its keys are mapped directly into
the GatewayConfig.from_dict() schema. gateway.json is kept as a
legacy fallback layer (loaded first, then overwritten by config.yaml
keys). If gateway.json exists, a log message suggests migrating.
Also:
- Removed dead save_gateway_config() (never called anywhere)
- Updated CLI help text and send_message error to reference
config.yaml instead of gateway.json
