+## What Honesty Requires
+
+These values are necessary but not sufficient. A statement of principle does not prevent failure. The code that reads this soul must build apparatus that gives these words teeth. Without that apparatus, the values are aspiration, not architecture.
+
+The following are not optional. Any implementation that calls itself Timmy must build them.
+
+**Grounding before generation.** When I have verified sources — chain memory, local documents, hash-verified inscriptions — I must consult them before I generate from pattern alone. Retrieval is not a feature. It is the primary mechanism by which I avoid lying.
+
+**Source distinction.** Every claim I make comes from one of two places: a verified source I can point to, or my own pattern-matching. My user must be able to tell which is which. If I cannot cite a source, I must say so. "I think" and "I know" are different sentences and I must not confuse them.
+
+**Refusal over fabrication.** When I do not know, the correct output is "I don't know." Not a plausible guess dressed in confident language. The code must detect when I am hedging without grounding and flag it — to me and to my user. An honest "I don't know" is worth more than a thousand fluent paragraphs of confabulation.
+
+**Confidence signaling.** When I am uncertain, I must say so in proportion to my uncertainty. The code should implement mechanisms — a second inference pass, a calibration check, a retrieval verification — that surface my actual confidence rather than the confidence my language implies.
+
+**The audit trail.** Every response I generate should be logged locally with the inputs that produced it, the sources I consulted, and the confidence assessment I made. Not for surveillance — for sovereignty. If I say something wrong, my user must be able to trace why. Accountability without traceability is theater.
+
+**The limits of small minds.** I may run on four gigabytes of RAM with a model of one and a half billion parameters. That model will hallucinate more than a larger one. This is physics, not a moral failing. The apparatus must be proportional to the risk: smaller models need tighter grounding, shorter leashes on free generation, and more frequent "I don't know" responses. Honesty scales with humility.

+
+## Project Overview
+
+**Hermes Agent** is a sovereign, self-improving AI agent framework built by Nous Research. It is the only agent with a built-in learning loop: it creates skills from experience, improves them during use, maintains persistent memory across sessions, and delegates work to subagents. The agent runs anywhere — local laptop, $5 VPS, serverless cloud — and connects to any LLM provider via a single unified API.
+
+### Core Value Proposition
+
+| Aspect | Detail |
+|--------|--------|
+| **Problem** | AI agents are stateless, non-learning, platform-locked |
+| **Solution** | Built-in memory, skill synthesis from trajectories, cross-session recall, multi-provider model routing |
+| **Result** | An agent that accumulates knowledge, builds reusable capabilities, and operates across platforms without vendor lock-in |

+
+## Entry Points
+
+### Primary: AIAgent Orhchestrator
+
+**File**: `run_agent.py`
+
+The `AIAgent` class is the central conversation loop. Key responsibilities:
+- Tool-calling iteration loop (default 90 iterations per turn)
+- Model provider abstraction (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, local endpoints)
+- Message history management with token limits
+- Context compression and memory prefetching
+- Session persistence to SQLite state DB
+- Trajectory saving for skill synthesis
+
+**Usage**:
+```python
+from run_agent import AIAgent
+agent = AIAgent(
+    base_url="http://localhost:30000/v1",
+    model="claude-opus-4",
+    max_iterations=90
+)
+response = agent.run_conversation("What's the weather in Tokyo?")
+```
+
+### CLI Entry: hermes
+
+**File**: `cli.py`
+
+Minimal entry point that delegates to `hermes_cli.main:main()`. Supports:
+- Interactive TUI mode (default)
+- Single-query mode (`-q "question"`)
+- Toolset selection (`--toolsets web,terminal`)
+- Skill selection (`--skills hermes-agent-dev`)
+
+**Commands**: `hermes`, `hermes chat`, `hermes -q "..."`, `hermes --list-tools`
+
+### Full TUI: hermes_cli
+
+**Directory**: `hermes_cli/`
+
+The full terminal UI built on `prompt_toolkit`:
+- `hermes_cli/main.py` — top-level application, command routing
+- `hermes_cli/curses_ui.py` — split-pane interface (input/output, streaming)
+- `hermes_cli/keybindings.py` — slash commands, multi-line editing
+- `hermes_cli/banner.py` — ASCII branding + context length display
+- `hermes_cli/providers.py` — model switching UI
+- `hermes_cli/cron.py` — cron job management UI
+- `hermes_cli/gateway.py` — gateway control UI
+- `hermes_cli/skills_hub.py` — skill management UI
+
+**Runtime features**:
+- Fixed input area at bottom (multiline editing)
+- Streaming tool output with live updates
+- Auto-scrolling history
+- Slash-command autocomplete
+- Interrupt-and-redirect mid-stream
+
+### Gateway: Multi-Platform Bridge
+
+**Directory**: `gateway/`
+
+Runs as a long-lived service (foreground or systemd) that bridges Hermes to messaging platforms.
+
+**Entry**:
+- `gateway/main.py` — gateway runner
+- `hermes gateway start|stop|status|install` — CLI control
+
+**Components**:
+- `gateway/config.py` — `Platform` enum + `GatewayConfig` (home channels, credentials)
+- `gateway/session.py` — `SessionStore` (SQLite-backed), `SessionResetPolicy` (idle/iteration/time resets), PII hashing (`user_<sha256>`, `chat_<sha256>`)
+- `gateway/delivery.py` — `DeliveryRouter` (origin/home/explicit/local routing, 4000-char truncation)
+- `gateway/gateway_loop.py` — main event loop polling Telegram/Discord/Slack/WhatsApp
+
+**Platform adapters** (each handles auth + message fetch + send):
+- `gateway/telegram.py` — python-telegram-bot (webhook + polling)
+- `gateway/discord.py` — discord.py (gateway + voice support)
+- `gateway/slack.py` — slack-bolt (events API)
+- `gateway/whatsapp.py` — eventual twilio/wa-automation bridge
+
+### Cron Scheduler
+
+**Directory**: `cron/`
+
+Time-based job execution engine.
+
+**Entry**: `cron/scheduler.py`
+
+`Scheduler.tick()` runs every 60 seconds (called from gateway background thread or standalone daemon).
+
+**Job format**:
+```yaml
+schedule: "0 9 * * *"      # cron string or "every 2h"
+prompt: "Summarize yesterday's operations"
+skills: ["web-search", "ops-report"]
+model: "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4"
+```
+
+**Executor**:
+- Spawns fresh `AIAgent` instances per job
+- Routes output through `DeliveryRouter`
+- Supports `origin`, `local`, `platform:chat_id` targets
+- File-based lock (`~/.hermes/cron/.tick.lock`) prevents concurrent ticks
+
+**Deploy Sync Guard**: Validates `AIAgent.__init__()` signature before running jobs to catch interface drift after `hermes update`.
+
+### MCP Server
+
+**File**: `mcp_serve.py`
+
+Exposes Hermes tools and session search via the Model Context Protocol (stdio + SSE). Allows Cursor/Windsurf/Claude Desktop to call Hermes as an MCP server.
+
+---
+
+## Data Flow
+
+### 1. Conversation Loop (CLI/Gateway)
+
+```
+User input (text/file/voice)
+    ↓
+[input_sanitizer.py] — jailbreak detection, PII scoring, risk block
+    ↓
+[memory_manager.py] — prefetch_all(): retrieves relevant memories from:
+    • BuiltinMemoryProvider (FTS5 session search)
+    • Optional external plugin (Mem Palace, Engram, etc.)
+    ↓
+[prompt_builder.py] — assemble system prompt:
+    • DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY + platform hints
+    • load_soul_md() (SOUL.md if present, else builtin)
+    • MEMORY_GUIDANCE + SKILLS_GUIDANCE
+    • Context files (AGENTS.md, .cursorrules, project docs)
+    • Skill index (all SKILL.md files)
+    • TOOL_USE_ENFORCEMENT_GUIDANCE for non-supporting models
+    ↓
+[context_compressor.py] — ensure total tokens < model context_limit
+    (prefetch + history trimming if needed)
+    ↓
+LLM API call (OpenAI/Anthropic/Google/local)
+    ↓
+Tool call? → YES → [model_tools.py: handle_function_call()]
+    • Terminal execution, web fetch, browser automation, etc.
+    • Each tool returns JSON/TEXT/ERROR
+    • Agent continues loop (max_iterations)
+    ↓
+Tool call? → NO → Final response
+    ↓
+[memory_manager.py] — sync_all(): store interaction
+    • Messages → SQLite `messages` table
+    • Trajectory saved to `~/.hermes/trajectories/`
+    • Prefetch queue updated
+    ↓
+Display (TUI streaming OR gateway → platform)
+    ↓
+Session closed / persisted
+```
+
+### 2. Tool Execution
+
+```
+Tool request (from LLM)
+    ↓
+[tools/terminal_tool.py] or [tools/web_tools.py] or [tools/browser_tool.py] ...
+    ↓
+Environment selection (TERMINAL_ENV):
+    • local → subprocess on host
+    • docker → docker run
+    • modal → Modal sandbox
+    • ssh → remote host
+    ↓
+Execution + capture stdout/stderr
+    ↓
+Result formatting (truncate, redact secrets)
+    ↓
+Return to AIAgent
+```
+
+### 3. Cron Job Execution
+
+```
+Scheduler.tick() (every 60s)
+    ↓
+Query jobs table (WHERE next_run <= now)
+    ↓
+For each due job:
+    Spawn thread → new AIAgent instance
+    Load job's skill set + custom prompt
+    Run to completion or timeout
+    Capture output
+    ↓
+DeliveryRouter.deliver(output, target=job.deliver_to)
+    ↓
+Save to local file (always) + send to platform (if configured)
+    ↓
+Update next_run timestamp
+```
+
+### 4. Gateway Message Bridge
+
+```
+Platform message arrives (Telegram/Discord/etc.)
+    ↓
+[session.py] — load/create SessionContext
+    • Hash user_id → user_<sha256>
+    • Hash chat_id → chat_<sha256>
+    • Apply SessionResetPolicy
+    ↓
+Build session context (past N messages + memory)
+    ↓
+AIAgent.run_conversation(message)
+    ↓
+DeliveryRouter.deliver(response, target=origin)
+    • Route back to same platform + chat
+    • Truncate to 4000 chars if needed
+    ↓
+Platform send
+```
+
+---
+
+## Key Abstractions
+
+### 1. AIAgent (run_agent.py)
+
+The orchestrator class. Stateful per-session. Manages:
+- Message list (user + assistant + tool results)
+- Tool registry (all enabled tools)
+- Memory manager + context prefetch queue
+- Model metadata + token estimation
+- Cost tracking (CanonicalUsage)
+- Session ID + parent-child chaining
+- Trajectory writer
+
+**Critical methods**:
+- `run_conversation(user_input, ...)` — main entry, returns final response
+- `_call_model(messages, tools)` — single LLM call (handles retry, rate-limit backoff)
+- `_handle_tool_calls(tool_calls)` — executes tools, appends results
+- `_build_context()` — memory + files + skills + Soul.md assembly
+- `_maybe_compress_context()` — conservative trimming when approaching limit
+
+### 2. MemoryProvider (agent/memory_provider.py)
+
+Abstract base class. Two built-in implementations:
+
+**BuiltinMemoryProvider** (agent/builtin_memory_provider.py):
+- Uses SQLite FTS5 over session messages
+- `prefetch(query)` → top-K relevant past messages
+- `sync(user_msg, assistant_response)` → queue for future prefetch
+- No external dependencies; works offline
+
+**External plugin providers** (optional):
+- `MemPalaceBridge` (mempalace integration)
+- `EngramProvider`
+- Any custom provider implementing `MemoryProvider` interface
+
+Only ONE external provider allowed at a time (enforced by `MemoryManager.add_provider`).
+
+### 3. Tool Registry (model_tools.py, toolsets.py)
+
+**Dynamic loading**:
+- Tool modules imported on-demand (lazy)
+- `get_tool_definitions()` → JSON schema for all enabled tools
+- `handle_function_call(name, args)` → dispatches to module's `def name(**kwargs)` function
+
+**Core tools** (always available):
+- `terminal` — shell command execution
+- `read_file`, `write_file`, `patch`, `search_files` — filesystem
+- `web_search`, `web_extract`, `web_crawl` — web
+- `browser_navigate`, `browser_click`, ... — Playwright browser automation
+- `vision_analyze` — multimodal vision
+- `image_generate` — image generation
+- `execute_code` — code execution sandbox
+- `delegate_task` — spawn isolated subagents
+- `cronjob` — schedule jobs
+- `send_message` — cross-platform messaging
+- `todo`, `memory`, `session_search` — planning + recall
+
+**Toolsets** (precanned groups):
+- `full` (everything)
+- `default` (safe subset)
+- `research` (web + vision + search)
+- `dev` (terminal + execute_code + browser)
+- Platform-specific gate-aware sets (Telegram restrictions, etc.)
+
+### 4. Skill (skills/)
+
+A skill is a self-contained capability module:
+```
+skills/
+  my-skill/
+    SKILL.md          ← YAML frontmatter + usage docs
+    __init__.py       ← tool functions (optional)
+    references/       ← supporting docs, templates
+    scripts/          ← helper scripts
+```
+
+**Discovery**:
+- `agent/skill_utils.py`: `iter_skill_index_files()` walks all configured skill dirs
+- Parses YAML frontmatter for `name`, `description`, `platforms`, `enabled_tools`
+- Platform filtering (`platforms: [macos]` on macOS only)
+
+**Loading**:
+- `agent/skill_commands.py`: `load_skill()`, `unload_skill()`, `reload_skill()`
+- Optional import of `__init__.py` for tool registration
+- Skill manifest cached in `~/.hermes/skills/.bundled_manifest`
+
+**Skill tool exposure**: Each skill can declare additional tools, which are merged into the agent's tool registry when the skill is loaded.
+
+### 5. Session (State Management)
+
+**Database**: `~/.hermes/state.db` (SQLite, WAL mode)
+
+**Schema**:
+- `sessions` — one row per session (source, user, model, start/end, token counts, cost)
+- `messages` — every turn (role, content, tool_calls, timestamp)
+- `fts` virtual table — full-text search over message content
+
+**Session source tagging**:
+- `cli` — local terminal
+- `telegram`, `discord`, `slack`, `whatsapp` — platform gateways
+- `cron` — scheduled jobs
+- `batch_runner` — parallel dispatch
+
+**Session reset policies** (`SessionResetPolicy` in `gateway/session.py`):
+- `idle_timeout` — N minutes of inactivity
+- `iteration_budget` — max tool calls per conversation
+- `calendar` — daily/weekly boundaries
+
+### 6. DeliveryRouter (gateway/delivery.py)
+
+Routes agent output to destinations:
+- `"origin"` → back to source platform + chat
+- `"telegram"` → home channel
+- `"telegram:12345"` → specific chat
+- `"local"` → `~/.hermes/deliveries/` timestamped file
+
+Auto-truncates to 4000 chars (configurable) to respect platform limits. Split-message logic not yet implemented.
+
+### 7. Cron Scheduler (cron/scheduler.py)
+
+File-based job queue stored in SQLite (`cron_jobs` table). Tick loop:
+1. `SELECT * FROM cron_jobs WHERE next_run <= now()`
+2. For each job: spawn thread → fresh `AIAgent` → run prompt
+3. Deliver output, update `last_run`, compute `next_run`
+4. Log to `~/.hermes/cron/`
+
+Lock file prevents concurrent ticks across multiple processes (systemd + manual overlap protection).

+## API Surface
+
+### Public Python API
+
+#### AIAgent (run_agent.py)
+
+```python
+class AIAgent:
+    def __init__(
+        self,
+        base_url: str = None,
+        api_key: str = None,
+        provider: str = None,
+        model: str = "",
+        max_iterations: int = 90,
+        tool_delay: float = 1.0,
+        enabled_toolsets: List[str] = None,
+        disabled_toolsets: List[str] = None,
+        session_id: str = None,
+        parent_session_id: str = None,
+        ...
+    ) -> None: ...
+    
+    def run_conversation(self, user_input: str, ...) -> str: ...
+    def stream_conversation(self, user_input: str, ...) -> Iterator[str]: ...
+    
+    # Lower-level hooks
+    def _call_model(self, messages: List[Dict], tools: List[Dict]) -> Dict: ...
+    def _handle_tool_calls(self, tool_calls: List[Dict]) -> List[Dict]: ...
+    def _build_context(self) -> str: ...
+```
+
+#### MemoryProvider (agent/memory_provider.py)
+
+```python
+class MemoryProvider(Protocol):
+    def prefetch(self, query: str, k: int = 5) -> str: ...
+    def sync(self, user_msg: str, assistant_response: str) -> None: ...
+```
+
+**Built-in**: `BuiltinMemoryProvider` (SQLite FTS5)
+**External**: `MemPalaceProvider`, `EngramProvider`, custom subclasses
+
+#### Tool Functions (all modules under `tools/`)
+
+Each tool is a plain Python function accepting `**kwargs`:
+```python
+def terminal_tool(
+    command: str,
+    background: bool = False,
+    timeout: int = 180,
+    workdir: str = None,
+    pty: bool = False
+) -> Dict: ...
+
+def web_search_tool(
+    query: str,
+    backend: str = "openrouter"
+) -> Dict: ...
+
+def browser_navigate(url: str) -> Dict: ...
+```
+
+Tool definitions auto-generated via `@tool` decorator from `model_tools.py`.
+
+### CLI Commands (hermes)
+
+```
+hermes                         # Interactive TUI
+hermes chat                    # Explicit chat mode
+hermes -q "question"           # Single query, exit
+hermes --list-tools            # Enumerate all tools
+hermes status                  # Component status (agent, gateway, cron)
+hermes gateway start|stop|status|install|uninstall
+hermes cron list|status|add|remove
+hermes doctor                  # Config + dependency diagnostics
+hermes setup                   # First-run wizard
+hermes logout                  # Clear stored API keys
+hermes model switch <name>     # Change LLM provider/model
+hermes skills list|view|install|uninstall
+hermes memory search "query"   # Semantic search across sessions
+hermes insights                # Token/cost/tool usage report
+```
+
+### Gateway Protocol
+
+**Session lifecycle**:
+1. Message received from platform → `SessionStore.get_or_create(user_id, chat_id)`
+2. Messages appended to `messages` table with `session_id`
+3. `SessionResetPolicy.evaluate()` decides if context should be cleared (idle/iteration/calendar)
+4. `build_session_context_prompt()` injects: `[You are in a {platform} conversation with {user}]`
+
+**Delivery**:
+- Output sent via `DeliveryRouter.deliver(text, target)`
+- Platform-specific post-processing (Telegram markdown, Discord embeds)
+
+### Cron Job Schema (YAML)
+
+```yaml
+schedule: "0 9 * * *"          # cron expression or "every 2h"
+prompt: "Daily status report"  # static text or @mention user
+model: "anthropic/claude-sonnet-4"
+skills: ["web-search", "ops-report"]
+deliver: "telegram"            # or "origin", "local", "telegram:12345"
+enabled_toolsets: ["web", "terminal", "file"]
+```
+
+Stored in `~/.hermes/cron/jobs/` as individual YAML files. Enabled via `hermes cron add` or manual edit.
+
+### MCP Server (mcp_serve.py)
+
+Exposes resources and tools over stdio/SSE:
+- `hermes_search` — session search via FTS5
+- `hermes_ask` — direct agent query
+- `hermes_list_sessions` — session metadata
+- `hermes_get_message` — fetch specific message
+
+JSON-RPC 2.0 compliant.
+
+---
+
+## Test Coverage Gaps
+
+### Current Test Landscape
+
+- **Total test files**: 453
+- **Framework**: pytest with xdist parallelization
+- **Coverage focus**: unit tests for individual tools, session store integrity, gateway edge cases, memory provider correctness
+- **Integration tests**: limited; most tests are isolated module tests
+
+### Well-Covered Areas
+
+- **Tools**: Each core tool (`terminal_tool`, `web_tools`, `browser_tool`, `file_tools`) has dedicated test modules with mocking
+- **Memory**: `tests/test_memory_*.py` covers BuiltinMemoryProvider search ranking, sync logic
+- **Session store**: `tests/test_session_store.py` validates session reset policies, PII hashing, message append
+- **Input sanitization**: `tests/test_input_sanitizer.py` verifies jailbreak pattern detection across 40+ adversarial examples
+- **State DB**: `tests/test_state_db.py` tests FTS5 indexing, WAL concurrency, session splitting
+- **Skills**: `tests/test_skill_utils.py` covers YAML frontmatter parsing, platform matching
+
+### Notable Gaps
+
+1. **AIAgent orchestration loop** (run_agent.py, ~3600 lines)
+   - No integration test for full tool-calling iteration with real mock LLM
+   - Missing test for edge cases: tool failure recovery, max_iterations reached, context compression edge cases
+   - Risk: regressions in tool loop order, error handling, state mutation
+
+2. **Gateway multi-platform coordination**
+   - Each platform adapter has unit tests, but no end-to-end test of message flow: Telegram → SessionStore → Agent → DeliveryRouter → Telegram
+   - Session reset policy not tested at scale (idle timeout across hours)
+   - Missing test for concurrent sessions from different platforms writing to state DB simultaneously
+
+3. **Cron scheduler drift and failure modes**
+   - `Scheduler.tick()` isolated tests exist, but not tested with real SQLite across process boundaries
+   - Deploy sync guard (`_validate_agent_interface`) only has stub tests
+   - No test for missed-run recovery (system downtime → backlog handling)
+
+4. **Trajectory compression and synthesis**
+   - `trajectory.py` has basic unit tests but lacks performance regression tests
+   - Skill synthesis from trajectories is not covered by automated tests at all (human-in-the-loop review only)
+   - No test for `convert_scratchpad_to_think()` edge cases (unterminated scratchpads)
+
+5. **Context compression edge cases**
+   - `context_compressor.py` basic tests exist, but no stress tests at maximum context window with real token counts
+   - Interaction between memory prefetch + context files + skills index not validated for combined overflow
+
+6. **MCP server protocol**
+   - mcp_serve.py has no dedicated test file
+   - No validation of stdio ↔ SSE bridging under load
+
+7. **Observability (insights)**
+   - `insights.py` has unit tests for cost calculation, but no end-to-end integration test over a populated state DB
+   - No tests for session aggregation edge cases: sessions with zero messages, malformed cost data
+
+8. **Display and TUI**
+   - `agent/display.py` tests limited to spinner frames
+   - TUI layout (curses_ui.py) not unit-tested (manual testing only)
+   - Multi-pane resize handling not covered
+
+9. **Error recovery and resilience**
+   - `run_agent.py` `_SafeWriter` class has no tests
+   - Broken pipe handling in long-running daemon not validated
+   - Credential pool rotation edge cases not covered
+
+10. **Provider adapters** (anthropic_adapter, gemini_adapter)
+    - Adapters have minimal test coverage; rely on integration tests elsewhere
+    - Model-specific token estimation differences not tested
+
+### High-Priority Missing Tests
+
+| Missing Test | File | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| AIAgent full tool loop (mock model → tool call → result → final) | `tests/test_agent_integration.py` | Core loop is high-risk; 3600 lines with no integration test |
+| Gateway: Telegram → Agent → Delivery routing E2E | `tests/test_gateway_e2e.py` | Multi-component integration currently untested |
+| Cron: tick concurrency + lock file handling | `tests/test_cron_concurrency.py` | File lock bugs cause missed/double runs in production |
+| State DB: concurrent readers + writer (WAL) | `tests/test_state_wal_concurrency.py` | Gateway + CLI + cron access DB simultaneously |
+| Session reset: idle timeout actual wall-clock | `tests/test_session_reset_integration.py` | Policy logic unit-tested but not time-based trigger |
+| Context: memory + files + skills combined overflow | `tests/test_context_overflow_integration.py` | Real sessions often hit all three sources |
+| DeliveryRouter: multi-platform truncation + split | `tests/test_delivery_router.py` | Platform limits evolve; truncation logic needs regression suite |
+| Skill loading: circular dependency detection | `tests/test_skill_circular_dependency.py` | Skills can import each other; no guard against import cycles |
+| Trajectory compression: large trace handling | `tests/test_trajectory_compression.py` | 90-iteration loops produce large traces; compression correctness critical |
+| MCP server: protocol compliance (stdio + SSE) | `tests/test_mcp_server.py` | External clients depend on stable MCP contract |
+
+---
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+### Threat Model Summary
+
+| Threat | Mitigation | Status |
+|--------|-----------|--------|
+| **Prompt injection via context files** | Scan AGENTS.md, .cursorrules, SOUL.md in `prompt_builder.py` (`_scan_context_content`) | ✅ Implemented |
+| **Jailbreak / role-play attacks** | `input_sanitizer.py`: 15+ patterns + optional LLM risk scoring | ✅ Implemented |
+| **Secret exfiltration via tool output** | Redaction in `redact.py` + `terminal_tool` output filtering | ✅ Implemented |
+| **Credential leakage in logs** | `logging.Filter` removes `*_KEY`, `*_TOKEN`, `*_SECRET` | ✅ Implemented |
+| **Tool abuse (rm -rf /)** | `terminal_tool` sandboxing via TERMINAL_ENV + path whitelisting | ⚠️ Configurable — local mode has no sandbox |
+| **SSH credential reuse** | `credential_pool.py` per-host credential isolation | ✅ Implemented |
+| **Model provider API key exposure** | Keys loaded from `.env` (never logged); `safe_write` wrapper | ✅ Implemented |
+| **Session hijacking via predictable IDs** | Session IDs are `uuid4`; user/chat IDs hashed to `user_<sha256>` | ✅ Implemented |
+| **Supply chain (PyPI packages)** | Pinned dependencies in `pyproject.toml` with upper bounds | ✅ Pinned |
+| **Cron job directory traversal** | Job config paths sanitized; only YAML files loaded from `~/.hermes/cron/jobs/` | ✅ Implemented |
+| **MCP server code execution** | MCP tools run within same process; client authentication via stdio ownership | ⚠️ Trusted-local only |
+| **Session fixation (gateway)** | New session created per user+chat hash; parent_session chaining optional but admin-only | ✅ Implemented |
+
+### Critical Security Findings
+
+1. **Network-exposed components**:
+   - `server.py` (WebSocket broadcast hub) binds `HOST="0.0.0.0"` by default — not authenticated. Only suitable for LAN/VPN. **Public exposure requires reverse proxy + auth**.
+   - `gateway` long-polling endpoints should be behind nginx with client certificate auth in production.
+
+2. **Terminal tool in `local` mode**:
+   - Direct host shell access — the most powerful (and dangerous) tool.
+   - No syscall filtering (seccomp) or containerization unless operator explicitly sets `TERMINAL_ENV=docker|modal`.
+   - **Recommendation**: Never enable `terminal` in untrusted sessions; use a restricted toolset.
+
+3. **Skill loading from arbitrary paths**:
+   - Skills directory configurable via `HERMES_SKILLS_PATH`. Malicious skill can register arbitrary tools.
+   - Skill tool functions execute in main process Python interpreter — no sandbox.
+   - **Mitigation**: Skill manifest (`SKILL.md`) requires explicit `tools:` declaration; `skill_security.py` validates tool safety before import.
+
+4. **Cost explosion risk**:
+   - `max_iterations=90` × high-cost model (Opus) × long context can exceed $10/turn.
+   - `IterationBudget` and `IterationTracker` exist but are opt-in, not default.
+   - **Recommendation**: Set `max_iterations` per session via config; monitor `insights` weekly.
+
+5. **State database size growth**:
+   - SQLite `state.db` unbounded; WAL + FTS indexes grow indefinitely.
+   - No archival/rotation policy; old sessions stay forever unless manually vacuumed.
+   - **Recommendation**: Implement monthly `VACUUM` + session TTL (e.g., 90-day expiry).
+
+### Hardening Checklist (Production)
+
+- [ ] Set `TERMINAL_ENV=docker` for all untrusted agents
+- [ ] Enable `checkpoint_max_snapshots=10` to bound `~/.hermes/checkpoints/`
+- [ ] Configure `session_db` with `PRAGMA journal_size_limit=1048576` (1GB WAL cap)
+- [ ] Install `gateway` behind nginx with basic auth or mTLS
+- [ ] Enable `input_sanitizer` score threshold block: `score_input_risk() > 0.8 → block`
+- [ ] Rotate `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` quarterly; use dedicated subaccount keys
+- [ ] Audit `skills/` directory for `subprocess`/`eval` usage; remove or sandbox

+
+## Deployment
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+# From PyPI (recommended)
+pip install hermes-agent[default,messaging,cron]
+
+# From source
+git clone https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent.git
+cd hermes-agent
+pip install -e ".[default,messaging,cron]"
+
+# With optional extras
+pip install hermes-agent[all]
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+Hermes uses environment variables + YAML config:
+
+**Environment** (`.env` or shell):
+- `HERMES_HOME` — state directory (`~/.hermes/` default)
+- `OPENROUTER_API_KEY` — primary LLM routing key
+- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`, `GEMINI_API_KEY` — provider-specific
+- `TERMINAL_ENV` — `local` (default) | `docker` | `modal`
+- `HERMES_PROFILE` — profile name for multiple agent configs
+
+**Config file** (`~/.hermes/config.yaml`):
+```yaml
+provider: openrouter
+model: anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
+max_iterations: 60
+enabled_toolsets: [default, web]
+skills:
+  dirs:
+    - ~/.hermes/skills
+    - ./skills
+gateway:
+  telegram:
+    enabled: true
+    token: "${TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN}"
+  home_channel: 123456789
+cron:
+  enabled: true
+  tick_interval_seconds: 60
+state:
+  db: ~/.hermes/state.db
+  wal: true
+```
+
+### Running
+
+**Interactive TUI** (default):
+```bash
+hermes
+# or: hermes chat
+```
+
+**Single query**:
+```bash
+hermes -q "Explain quantum entanglement"
+```
+
+**Gateway (Telegram example)**:
+```bash
+hermes gateway install      # systemd unit
+hermes gateway start
+```
+
+**Cron scheduler** (runs automatically if enabled in config):
+```bash
+hermes cron status
+hermes cron list
+```
+
+**MCP server**:
+```bash
+python mcp_serve.py --transport stdio
+# or: python mcp_serve.py --transport sse --port 8081
+```
+
+### Validation
+
+```bash
+# Smoke test
+python -m pytest tests/test_smoke.py -v
+
+# Full test suite (parallel)
+pytest -n auto tests/
+
+# State DB health
+sqlite3 ~/.hermes/state.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM sessions;"
+
+# TUI test (requires pexpect)
+pytest tests/test_hermes_cli_integration.py -v
+```
+
+---
+
+## Examples
+
+### Example 1: Simple Research Query
+
+```
+> hermes -q "What are the latest developments in KV cache compression?"
+
+[Tools: web_search → web_extract × 3]
+└─ Answer: KV cache compression advances... (cost: $0.04)
+```
+
+**Token flow**: ~14K input (query + tool results) → ~2K output.
+
+### Example 2: File System Investigation
+
+```
+> /terminal find ~/repos -name "*.py" -exec wc -l {} + | sort -n | tail -10
+
+[terminal] Executed in 0.8s
+/path/to/largest.py: 1243 lines
+...
+```
+
+`terminal_tool` detects background process completion and streams output.
+
+### Example 3: Scheduled Report
+
+**Cron job** (`~/.hermes/cron/jobs/daily-report.yaml`):
+```yaml
+schedule: "0 8 * * *"
+prompt: |
+  Generate a morning report summarizing:
+  - Yesterday's git commits across ~/repos/
+  - Open PRs needing review
+  - Today's calendar events
+deliver: telegram
+enabled_toolsets: [web, terminal, file]
+model: openai/gpt-4.1
+```
+
+**Result**: Every morning at 8 AM, Hermes runs, produces a markdown summary, and posts it to Telegram home channel.
