The previous winget invocation discarded stdout/stderr and trusted no
signal at all -- not the exit code (winget exits 0 even when it bails
"please specify --source"), not output (sent to Out-Null), not the
catch handler (winget returning 0 means no exception fires). The only
trust signal was a post-install Get-Command rg / Get-Command ffmpeg
check, which would also miss the package because %LOCALAPPDATA%\
Microsoft\WinGet\Links (where winget puts command aliases) is added to
PATH by AppExecutionAlias machinery only in fresh shells. End result on
machines where the msstore source has a cert problem (0x8a15005e --
common on Windows-on-ARM and some corporate networks): silent failure,
no log, no breadcrumb, and the user is told the install succeeded.
Specifically:
- Pin --source winget on every winget install call. Defeats the broken-
msstore-source path. We ship nothing from msstore so this is safe and
forward-compatible.
- Add --exact --id for a tighter package match.
- Capture each winget invocation's combined stdout/stderr + exit code to
%TEMP%\hermes-winget-<pkg>-<n>.log instead of Out-Null. On the happy
path the log is deleted after the post-install check confirms the
binary is on PATH; on failure the log is kept and its path is named in
a Write-Warn so the user has something to grep.
- Refresh PATH to include %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\WinGet\Links in
addition to the User/Machine env-var hives, so Get-Command sees newly-
installed winget aliases in the same process.
- No behavior change on the happy path. Same Write-Info/Success/Warn
cadence, same fallback order (winget -> choco -> scoop -> manual),
same $script:HasRipgrep / $script:HasFfmpeg outputs.
Verified end-to-end on a real Snapdragon ARM64 Windows host: ripgrep
uninstalled, stage re-run, [OK] ripgrep installed in 1.4s, ok:true.
Add a Get-WindowsArch helper that reads Win32_Processor.Architecture
via CIM (invariant to PowerShell host bitness) with PROCESSOR_ARCHITEW6432
fallback. Use it in:
- Install-Git: previously only triggered the arm64 PortableGit asset
when invoked from a native-ARM64 PowerShell host. WoW64 / emulated
x64 hosts (the default powershell.exe on Windows-on-ARM) saw
PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE=AMD64 and fell through to the x64 PortableGit
build, leaving ARM64 users on emulated Git for Windows.
- Test-Node: previously hardcoded the Node download to win-x64 on any
64-bit OS, so ARM64 users always got x64 Node under Prism emulation
even though Node ships an arm64 build for Windows. The winget
fallback now also passes --architecture arm64 on ARM64.
Python remains x86_64 by design: uv intentionally prefers
windows-x86_64 cpython on ARM64 hosts for ecosystem (wheel)
compatibility (see astral-sh/uv#19015).
The canonical install flow
irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/.../scripts/install.ps1 | iex
fails on PowerShell 5.1 with a cascade of 'The assignment expression
is not valid' errors at every param() default value:
[string]$Branch = 'main',
~~~~~~
The assignment expression is not valid. The input to an assignment
operator must be an object that is able to accept assignments...
Root cause: scripts/install.ps1 carries a UTF-8 BOM (0xEF 0xBB 0xBF)
as its first three bytes. 'irm' returns the response body as a string;
on PS 5.1 the BOM survives into that string as a leading \ufeff
character. 'iex' then evaluates the string and PS's parser chokes
on the invisible character before param() -- error recovery proceeds
into the body but every assignment is reported as broken.
This was the exact failure mode the install.ps1 hardening pass (PR
#27224) deliberately fixed by stripping the BOM and ensuring the
file body is pure ASCII. Commit 4279da4db ('fix(windows): make
PowerShell installer parse in 5.1') re-introduced the BOM later,
unintentionally undoing the irm|iex compatibility fix; the merge
that brought it into bb/gui carried it forward.
Fix: strip the three BOM bytes. File body is verified pure ASCII
(any-byte > 127 returns false), so PS 5.1 with no BOM falls back to
Windows-1252 decoding which is identical to ASCII for our content.
Both install paths now work:
- 'irm ... | iex' (canonical CLI)
- 'powershell -File install.ps1' (programmatic / desktop bootstrap)
* refactor(bootstrap): consolidate ACP browser bootstrap into install.{sh,ps1}
Delete 687 lines of duplicated browser bootstrap code from
acp_adapter/bootstrap/. All browser installation now routes through
dep_ensure -> install.{sh,ps1} --ensure, using agent-browser install
for Chromium. install.sh gains ensure_browser() with macOS app-bundle
detection and per-distro guidance.
Tracking: #27826
* fix(install.sh): add --ignore-scripts to npm install for camofox
@askjo/camofox-browser has a dependency (impit) whose postinstall
script runs `npx only-allow pnpm`, which fails under npm. Adding
--ignore-scripts avoids the spurious failure without affecting
functionality.
Tracking: #27826
* fix: add explicit return in ensure_browser, narrow exception in entry.py
ensure_browser() now returns 0 explicitly on all success paths.
_run_setup_browser() catches OSError instead of broad Exception,
letting ImportError propagate as a real packaging bug.
* feat(dep_ensure): complete Windows bootstrap — dep_ensure + install.ps1 + detection
dep_ensure.py gains Windows awareness: PowerShell invocation, platform-
specific browser detection, (path, shell) tuple returns.
install.ps1 gains -Ensure/-PostInstall modes using npm -g --prefix
(aligned with install.sh) and agent-browser install for Chromium.
browser_tool.py gains node/ in candidate dirs for Windows .cmd shims.
Both install scripts bundled in pip wheel.
Tracking: #27826
* fix(install.ps1): add --ignore-scripts to npm install for camofox
@askjo/camofox-browser has a dependency (impit) whose postinstall
script runs `npx only-allow pnpm`, which fails under npm. Adding
--ignore-scripts avoids the spurious failure without affecting
functionality.
Tracking: #27826
* fix: remove duplicate install scripts from git
CI already copies scripts/install.{sh,ps1} into hermes_cli/scripts/
during wheel build. No need to commit copies — .gitignore keeps them
out, _find_install_script() falls back to scripts/ for git-clone users.
Tracking: #27826
* fix: address review — remove env_extra, fix ps1 error handling
- Remove unused env_extra parameter from ensure_dependency()
- Invoke-EnsureMode node case now uses Test-Node consistently
- Install-AgentBrowser uses throw instead of exit 1
* feat(config): add install-method stamping + Docker detection
Dockerfile stamps "docker", install.sh stamps "git", and cmd_postinstall
stamps "pip" into ~/.hermes/.install_method. detect_install_method() reads
the stamp first, then falls back to managed-system / container / .git
heuristics. Adds Docker upgrade guidance.
Tracking: #27826
* fix(stamp): move Docker stamp to entrypoint, install.sh stamp after print_success
The Dockerfile stamp was overwritten by the VOLUME overlay at container
start. Moving it to entrypoint.sh ensures it persists. The install.sh
stamp now writes after print_success so it only lands on full success.
* feat(session_search): single-shape tool with discovery, scroll, browse — no LLM
Replaces the LLM-summarized session_search with a single-shape tool that
returns actual messages from the DB. Three calling shapes inferred from
args (no mode parameter):
1. Discovery — pass query. FTS5 + anchored ±5 window + bookends per hit,
all in one call. ~20ms on a real DB instead of ~90s for the previous
three aux-LLM calls.
2. Scroll — pass session_id + around_message_id. Returns a window
centered on the anchor. To paginate, re-anchor on the first/last id
of the returned window. Boundary message appears in both windows
as the orientation marker. ~1ms per scroll call.
3. Browse — no args. Recent sessions chronologically.
Bookend_start (first 3 user+assistant msgs) and bookend_end (last 3) give
the agent goal + resolution on every discovery hit, so a single tool call
reconstructs a long session's arc without loading the whole transcript.
The aux-LLM summary path is gone: it cost ~$0.30/call, took ~30s, and
laundered FTS5 hits through a model that could confabulate when the right
session wasn't in the hit list. The merged shape returns byte-for-byte
content from SQLite.
History:
- PR #20238 (JabberELF) seeded the fast/summary dual-mode split.
- PR #26419 (yoniebans) expanded to fast/guided/summary with bookends,
multi-anchor drill-down, default-mode config, and a teaching skill.
This PR collapses that toolkit into one shape with explicit scroll
support, drops the summary path, drops the mode parameter, drops the
config knob, drops the skill. JabberELF's seed work is acknowledged via
the AUTHOR_MAP entry.
Validation:
- 38/38 tool tests pass (tests/tools/test_session_search.py)
- 12/12 get_messages_around tests pass (tests/hermes_state/)
- 11/11 get_anchored_view tests pass (tests/hermes_state/)
- Full tests/tools/ run: 5168 passing, 2 failures pre-exist on main
(test ordering in test_delegate.py, unrelated)
- E2E against live state DB: discovery 20ms, scroll 1ms, browse 280ms;
pagination forward+backward works with boundary-message orientation;
error paths return clean tool_error responses

* chore(session_search): prune dead LLM-summary config and docs
Companion to the single-shape rewrite. The auxiliary.session_search config
block, max_concurrency / extra_body tunables, and matching docs sections
all referenced the removed LLM summarization path. Removing them so users
don't try to tune knobs that nothing reads.
- hermes_cli/config.py: drop dead auxiliary.session_search block from
DEFAULT_CONFIG. Leftover keys in user config.yaml are harmless and
ignored.
- hermes_cli/tips.py: drop two tips referencing the removed
max_concurrency / extra_body knobs.
- website/docs/user-guide/configuration.md: drop 'Session Search Tuning'
section and the auxiliary.session_search block from the example.
- website/docs/user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: drop session_search
rows from the auxiliary-tasks tables and the dedicated tuning subsection.
- website/docs/reference/tools-reference.md: rewrite the session_search
entry to describe the new three-shape behaviour.
- CONTRIBUTING.md: update the file-tree description.
- tests/tools/test_llm_content_none_guard.py: remove TestSessionSearchContentNone
class and test_session_search_tool_guarded — both guard against an
unguarded .content.strip() call site in _summarize_session() that no
longer exists.
Validation: 97/97 targeted tests still pass (hermes_state + session_search +
llm_content_none_guard). Config tests 55/55.

Converges the Windows packaged desktop installer onto a single canonical
install topology: drop the Electron shell only (~80MB instead of ~500MB),
clone Hermes Agent at a build-time-pinned commit on first launch via
install.ps1's stage protocol, and treat the resulting git checkout at
%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\hermes-agent\ as the canonical install location
(same path the CLI installer uses). Future updates flow through the
existing applyUpdates() git-pull path.
Replaces the previous fat-installer architecture where the .exe bundled
a pre-staged hermes-agent source tree under resources/hermes-agent/ that
was then sync'd into ACTIVE_HERMES_ROOT at launch -- a complicated
factory-vs-active dance with several footguns (FACTORY_HERMES_ROOT
mismatch on path resolve, isGitCheckout guard regressions, pyproject
hash drift detection inside the sync loop).
Architecture overview
---------------------
Build time
apps/desktop/scripts/write-build-stamp.cjs writes
apps/desktop/build/install-stamp.json with {commit, branch, builtAt,
dirty}. Honours $GITHUB_SHA / $GITHUB_REF_NAME in CI, falls back to
`git rev-parse HEAD` locally.
apps/desktop/scripts/stage-native-deps.cjs copies the runtime subset
of @homebridge/node-pty-prebuilt-multiarch from the workspace-root
node_modules into apps/desktop/build/native-deps/. Workspace dedup
hoists this dep to the root, out of reach of electron-builder's
`files:`-restricted collector; staging gives us a deterministic
path to extraResources.
electron-builder ships both into resources/install-stamp.json and
resources/native-deps/ respectively.
Boot resolver (electron/main.cjs)
Resolver order:
1. HERMES_DESKTOP_HERMES_ROOT override
2. SOURCE_REPO_ROOT (dev mode)
3. ACTIVE_HERMES_ROOT git checkout WITH .hermes-bootstrap-complete
marker -- the post-install fast path
4. `hermes` on PATH (CLI-installed user adding the desktop)
5. pip-installed hermes_cli via system Python
6. bootstrap-needed sentinel -> hand off to runBootstrap
Deletes the entire FACTORY_HERMES_ROOT / RUNTIME_MARKER /
syncTreeExcludingVenv machinery (-200 lines). The isGitCheckout
guard that bit us in the install.ps1 PR is gone.
First-launch bootstrap (electron/bootstrap-runner.cjs)
1. Resolve install.ps1: prefer SOURCE_REPO_ROOT/scripts (dev), else
download from GitHub raw at INSTALL_STAMP.commit (cached at
HERMES_HOME\bootstrap-cache\install-<sha>.ps1).
2. Fetch the stage manifest via install.ps1 -Manifest -Commit X
-Branch Y.
3. Iterate stages: install.ps1 -Stage <name> -NonInteractive -Json
-Commit X -Branch Y per stage.
4. On all stages green: write the .hermes-bootstrap-complete
marker with {schemaVersion, pinnedCommit, pinnedBranch,
completedAt, desktopVersion}.
Per-run log to HERMES_HOME\logs\bootstrap-<ts>.log. Cancellation
via AbortSignal. Manifest cache so retries don't re-download.
Install overlay (src/components/desktop-install-overlay.tsx)
Mounted alongside the existing onboarding overlay; flexbox card
with header (static) + middle (scrollable) + footer (failure-only,
static). Subscribes to hermes:bootstrap:event IPC + resyncs from
hermes:bootstrap:get on mount/reload. Renders:
- 14-stage checklist with per-stage state icons
- Overall progress bar + current-stage spotlight
- Auto-expanded installer-output panel on failure
- "Copy output" button (full ring buffer + error to clipboard)
- "Reload and retry" wired through hermes:bootstrap:reset to
clear main.cjs's latched failure
Synthetic empty-manifest event from main.cjs flips the overlay to
'active' immediately so the slow install.ps1 download doesn't
leave the user staring at the generic Preparing splash.
Failure latching (main.cjs)
bootstrapFailure module-scope variable holds the rejection after
install.ps1 fails. startHermes() throws the latched error
immediately when set, bypassing the entire ensureRuntime +
runBootstrap chain. Without this, the renderer's ensureGatewayOpen
retries would re-run install.ps1 in a 5-10 min hot loop while the
user was still reading the failure overlay. Cleared via
hermes:bootstrap:reset on user-driven retry.
Unsupported-platform overlay (1F)
macOS / Linux packaged builds (no install.sh stage protocol yet)
emit an unsupported-platform event with a copy-pasteable install
command + docs URL. Dedicated overlay branch with "Copy command"
+ "I've run it -- retry" buttons.
install.ps1 additions (Phase 1F.3 + 1F.5)
-----------------------------------------
New -Commit and -Tag string params. Precedence Commit > Tag >
Branch. Honoured by all three code paths (update / fresh clone /
ZIP fallback), with archive URL selection that handles each
ref-type variant. Detached-HEAD checkouts intentionally -- they're
pins, not branches the user pulls into.
EAP=Continue wrap around the new pin-step git invocations. `git
fetch origin <commit>` writes the routine 'From <url>' info line to
stderr; under the script's global EAP=Stop that terminates the
script even though fetch+checkout succeed. Matches the established
pattern in Install-Uv, Test-Python, _Run-NpmInstall.
Backend fix (hermes_cli/web_server.py)
--------------------------------------
CORS allow_origin_regex now accepts Origin: 'null'. Packaged
Electron loads index.html via file://; Chromium sets the WebSocket
upgrade Origin header to the opaque origin 'null', which the old
regex rejected with HTTP 403 before gateway_ws() ever ran. This
failure mode was masked in the older FACTORY_HERMES_ROOT
architecture because the resolver often found an existing hermes
on PATH with different binding behavior.
Security maintained: localhost-only bind keeps cross-machine pages
out; per-process session token still gates every authenticated
/api/ endpoint regardless of Origin.
Desktop QoL
-----------
DevTools is now enabled in packaged builds (F12 / Cmd+Opt+I).
Field-debugging trade-off: tiny attack surface increase versus
a much better support story when CSP / WS / theme issues surface.
NSIS prereq-check page deleted (-767 lines). The standard
Welcome -> License -> Directory -> InstallFiles -> Finish wizard
now installs without custom Python/Git/ripgrep detection -- those
prereqs are install.ps1's job at first launch.
Test infrastructure (Phase 1G)
------------------------------
apps/desktop/scripts/test-desktop.mjs rewritten as a cross-platform
bundle validator (was darwin-only and asserted on dead factory-
payload paths):
NEGATIVE: hermes_cli/main.py is NOT shipped (regression guard)
POSITIVE: install-stamp.json carries a real commit + branch
POSITIVE: node-pty native deps shipped under resources/native-deps
POSITIVE: renderer dist/index.html reachable (asar or unpacked)
New nsis mode and npm run test:desktop:nsis script.
Validated end-to-end on clean Win10 VM
--------------------------------------
Confirmed: NSIS installer drops Electron shell, app launches,
install overlay shows progress, install.ps1 clones the pinned
commit, 14 stages run to completion, marker written, backend
spawns, WebSocket connects, onboarding overlay asks for API key,
main UI loads, integrated terminal works.
Failures handled: bootstrap stays failed (no hot-loop retry),
"Copy output" gives actionable transcript, "Reload and retry"
explicitly re-runs install.ps1.
What's deferred
---------------
- MSIX wrapping (Phase 2): same Electron .exe under MSIX manifest
with runFullTrust, signed and submitted to Microsoft Store.
- install.sh stage protocol parity (Phase 2): once shipped, the
unsupported-platform overlay becomes drive-it-yourself and
macOS/Linux packaged installers gain feature parity with Windows.
The check-windows-footguns.py script outputs a checkmark (U+2713) and
cross (U+2717) to report results. Windows terminals default to cp1252,
which cannot encode these characters, so running the script on Windows
threw a UnicodeEncodeError before any results were printed.
This made the tool completely unusable on the exact platform it exists
to help -- a developer on Windows trying to check their code for
Windows-safety issues would just get a crash instead.
Fix: reconfigure stdout and stderr to UTF-8 at the start of main(),
before any output is produced. Verified on Windows 11 Home with
Python 3.13 (terminal defaulting to cp1252).
Two protocol-correctness gaps from review:
1. Stage-Node used [void](Test-Node) which discarded Test-Node's return
value, so the JSON frame always reported ok=true even when Node
install fully failed. A GUI driver consuming the manifest couldn't
tell 'node ready' from 'node missing'. Wire a soft-skip channel
($script:_StageSkippedReason) that workers can populate to surface
'ran, but the thing it was supposed to set up is not available' as
skipped=true with a reason in the JSON, without aborting the install
(Node is optional -- browser tools degrade gracefully, matches
Write-Completion's existing 'Note: Node.js could not be installed'
behavior). Reset before each stage so a prior reason can't leak.
2. The -Stage dispatch used 'if ($Stage)' which is falsy for empty
string, so 'install.ps1 -Stage ""' fell through to Main and silently
kicked off a full destructive install. Switch to
PSBoundParameters.ContainsKey('Stage') so an explicit empty value
surfaces as unknown-stage exit 2 with a structured JSON frame, the
way every other bad stage name does.
Address the two cosmetic items from review:
- Completion banner middle line was 62 chars vs 59-char top/bottom borders
(replacing the 1-char checkmark with [OK] added width that wasn't
reflected in the trailing whitespace). Drop 3 trailing spaces.
- Smoke test file had a single em-dash in a comment -- the only
non-ASCII byte across both files. Replace with -- for consistency
with install.ps1's pure-ASCII goal.
Three issues flagged by the Copilot review on this PR:
1. Double JSON emit on stage failure (Copilot #1, #2). When -Stage <name>
ran a worker that threw, Invoke-Stage's finally emitted a JSON result
frame AND the entry-point catch emitted a second error frame --
producing two concatenated JSON objects on stdout and breaking the
one-line-per-invocation contract that drivers parse against. Same
issue applied to -Json mode on a full install (every stage's finally
plus a final error frame missing duration_ms/skipped).
Fix: Invoke-Stage's finally now sets $script:_StageEmittedErrorFrame
when it emits a failure frame; the entry-point catch checks the flag
and skips its own emit, still exit 1.
2. $prevEAP uninitialized on early try-block throw (Copilot #3). In
Install-Uv, Test-Python, Test-Node's winget fallback,
_Run-NpmInstall, and the playwright block, '$prevEAP =
$ErrorActionPreference' lived as the first statement INSIDE the
try. If anything between 'try {' and that line threw (Write-Info on
an unusual host, the npx-finding loop, etc.), the catch's
'if ($prevEAP) { ... }' restore was a no-op and EAP could remain
relaxed.
Fix: hoist '$prevEAP = $ErrorActionPreference' to the line
immediately before 'try {' in all five sites. Catch's restore is
now always meaningful regardless of where in the try the throw
originated.
No change to Invoke-Stage's success path or to the four lint-clean EAP
sites (Test-Node was the only winget-related catch). All 19 metadata
smoke tests still pass.
Adds an opt-in stage protocol that lets programmatic drivers (the
desktop GUI's onboarding wizard, CI, future install.sh parity) drive
install.ps1 one step at a time with structured JSON results. Default
invocation (`irm | iex` one-liner) behaves unchanged.
Entry points:
install.ps1 Today's interactive install (unchanged)
install.ps1 -ProtocolVersion Emit protocol version integer
install.ps1 -Manifest Emit JSON manifest of available stages
install.ps1 -Stage <name> Run one stage, emit JSON result
install.ps1 -NonInteractive Suppress Read-Host prompts (skips the
setup wizard and gateway autostart)
install.ps1 -Json Machine-readable completion frame
Manifest exposes 14 stages across prereqs/install/finalize/post-install
categories, with 2 (configure, gateway) flagged needs_user_input=true
so GUI drivers can skip them and handle the equivalent UX themselves.
Along the way, clean-VM testing on stock Windows 10/11 surfaced a
series of latent install.ps1 bugs that were never exercised by
developer machines. Fixed in the same commit:
* Encoding: file is now pure ASCII with no BOM. Windows PowerShell
5.1 reads BOM-less files as Windows-1252 and chokes on em-dashes
(and other UTF-8 sequences), while iex chokes on a leading U+FEFF.
Pure-ASCII satisfies both invocation paths.
* EAP=Stop + native `2>&1` captures: PowerShell wraps stderr lines
from native commands as ErrorRecord objects under EAP=Stop and
throws even when the command exits 0. Relaxed to EAP=Continue
around the astral.sh uv installer, `uv python install`, `npm
install`, `npx playwright install`, the venv import probes, and
the Node winget fallback. Check $LASTEXITCODE for the real signal.
* Cross-process state: each `-Stage <name>` invocation spawns a
fresh powershell child. $script:UvCmd set by Stage-Uv was invisible
to Stage-Python; PATH updated by Stage-Git/Stage-Node was invisible
to subsequent stages spawned by the driver shell. Added Resolve-UvCmd
helper called at the top of every stage that needs uv, and a
Sync-EnvPath helper called at the top of Invoke-Stage to refresh
PATH from the registry.
* UAC avoidance: `winget install OpenJS.NodeJS.LTS` triggers a UAC
prompt that often appears minimized in the taskbar -- looks like a
hang. Switched Test-Node to prefer the official portable Node zip
dropped into %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes\node\ (mirrors the PortableGit
pattern Install-Git already uses). winget kept as fallback.
* npx hangs on confirmation: `npx playwright install chromium` blocks
on stdin waiting for "Need to install playwright@X.Y.Z (y/N)" when
playwright isn't in local node_modules. Tee-Object pipelines
disconnect stdin from the user's TTY so the install hangs forever.
Pass `--yes` to auto-accept.
* Silent long-running installs: `*> $logPath` redirected every stream
to disk and left the user staring at a frozen "Installing..." line
for the 5-10 minutes Playwright Chromium takes to download. Switched
to `2>&1 | ForEach-Object { "$_" } | Tee-Object -FilePath $log` so
output streams live to the console AND captures to log for failure
diagnostics. ForEach-Object coercion strips PowerShell's red
NativeCommandError formatter from stderr items.
* Console encoding: forced [Console]::OutputEncoding to UTF-8 so
playwright/git/npm progress bars, box-drawing, and check marks render
correctly instead of as IBM437/Windows-1252 mojibake.
* Performance: set $ProgressPreference = "SilentlyContinue" so
Invoke-WebRequest doesn't paint its per-chunk progress bar. The
PS 5.1 progress UI throttles downloads by 10-100x (a 57MB PortableGit
grab takes 5 minutes with the bar on vs ~20 seconds with it off,
same network). Affects PortableGit, Node portable zip, and the
Hermes repo zip fallback.
Tests: scripts/tests/test-install-ps1-stage-protocol.ps1 provides 19
metadata-only assertions covering -ProtocolVersion, -Manifest schema,
and unknown -Stage error frame. No install side effects.
End-to-end validated on a clean Windows 10 VM via:
1. `irm <branch>/scripts/install.ps1 | iex` (canonical CLI path)
2. `powershell -File install.ps1 -Stage X` iterated through every
stage (GUI driver path, exercises cross-process fixes)
The install_open_webui function correctly resolved the python interpreter into the $py variable, but hardcoded 'python' in subsequent pip install commands. This caused 'command not found' or 'externally-managed-environment' errors on systems where 'python' is not implicitly aliased to 'python3'.
Two unit tests for run_hermes_oauth_login_pure():
1. test_authorization_url_state_is_not_pkce_verifier — asserts state in the
auth URL is independent from the PKCE code_verifier sent in the token
exchange, and that the verifier never appears in the URL.
2. test_callback_state_mismatch_aborts — asserts the flow returns None
(no token exchange) when the callback state does not match the value
we generated.
Negative control verified: reintroducing the b17e5c10 vulnerable pattern
(state = verifier, no callback validation) makes both tests fail.
Also adds AUTHOR_MAP entry for shaun0927 (contributor of the fix).
The cherry-picked PR #15251 from @tw2818 correctly identified the
DeepSeek 400 root cause but placed the fix in the legacy fallback path
of `build_kwargs`, which DeepSeek never reaches — DeepSeek has a
registered ProviderProfile and goes through `_build_kwargs_from_profile`
instead. The legacy-path block was therefore dead code.
This commit pivots the fix to where it actually fires:
- New `DeepSeekProfile` in `plugins/model-providers/deepseek/__init__.py`
overrides `build_api_kwargs_extras` to emit DeepSeek's expected wire
format (mirrors `KimiProfile`):
{"reasoning_effort": "<low|medium|high|max>",
"extra_body": {"thinking": {"type": "enabled" | "disabled"}}}
- Model gating: only `deepseek-v4-*` and `deepseek-reasoner` emit
thinking control. `deepseek-chat` (V3) is untouched — current behavior.
- Effort mapping: low/medium/high passthrough, xhigh/max → max, unset →
omitted (DeepSeek server applies its own default).
- Revert the legacy-path additions from PR #15251 — they were dead code,
and the `_copy_reasoning_content_for_api` strip block specifically
would have nullified the existing reasoning_content padding machinery
(`_needs_deepseek_tool_reasoning` → space-pad on replay) that the
active provider already relies on for replay correctness.
- Unit tests pin the wire-shape contract and the model gating rules
(26 tests, all passing). Existing transport + provider profile suites
(321 tests) continue to pass.

Fresh Windows installs were failing on first run with:
⚠ uv python install error: Downloading cpython-3.11.15-windows-x86_64-none (24.5MiB)
✗ Installation failed: Python was not found; run without arguments
to install from the Microsoft Store...
Two bugs compounding:
1) EAP=Stop swallows uv's stderr progress as an exception. uv writes
download progress ("Downloading cpython-3.11.15-windows-x86_64-none
(24.5MiB)") to stderr. With $ErrorActionPreference = "Stop" set at
the top of the script plus 2>&1 capture, PowerShell wraps each stderr
line as an ErrorRecord and throws on the first one — even though uv
exits 0 and Python was installed successfully. This was previously
fixed in commit ec1714e71 (May 8) but lost in the May 12 release
squash (413990c94). Reapply the EAP=Continue + verify-via
'uv python find' pattern.
2) System-python fallback invokes the Microsoft Store stub. When the uv
paths fall through, the legacy 'python --version' check invokes
%LOCALAPPDATA%\\Microsoft\\WindowsApps\\python.exe, a 0-byte
reparse-point stub that prints 'Python was not found...' to stdout
and exits non-zero. Get-Command matches it. The resulting error
message is what the user sees as the final installer crash. Detect
and skip the stub by checking for the \\WindowsApps\\ path
component or a 0-byte file size before invoking python.
Also save/restore EAP defensively in the catch blocks so a throw before
the assignment can't leave EAP in 'Continue'.
Wraps every sync->async coroutine-scheduling site in the codebase with a
new agent.async_utils.safe_schedule_threadsafe() helper that closes the
coroutine on scheduling failure (closed loop, shutdown race, etc.)
instead of leaking it as 'coroutine was never awaited' RuntimeWarnings
plus reference leaks.
22 production call sites migrated across the codebase:
- acp_adapter/events.py, acp_adapter/permissions.py
- agent/lsp/manager.py
- cron/scheduler.py (media + text delivery paths)
- gateway/platforms/feishu.py (5 sites, via existing _submit_on_loop helper
which now delegates to safe_schedule_threadsafe)
- gateway/run.py (10 sites: telegram rename, agent:step hook, status
callback, interim+bg-review, clarify send, exec-approval button+text,
temp-bubble cleanup, channel-directory refresh)
- plugins/memory/hindsight, plugins/platforms/google_chat
- tools/browser_supervisor.py (3), browser_cdp_tool.py,
computer_use/cua_backend.py, slash_confirm.py
- tools/environments/modal.py (_AsyncWorker)
- tools/mcp_tool.py (2 + 8 _run_on_mcp_loop callers converted to
factory-style so the coroutine is never constructed on a dead loop)
- tui_gateway/ws.py
Tests: new tests/agent/test_async_utils.py covers helper behavior under
live loop, dead loop, None loop, and scheduling exceptions. Regression
tests added at three PR-original sites (acp events, acp permissions,
mcp loop runner) mirroring contributor's intent.
Live-tested end-to-end:
- Helper stress test: 1500 schedules across live/dead/race scenarios,
zero leaked coroutines
- Race exercised: 5000 schedules with loop killed mid-flight, 100 ok /
4900 None returns, zero leaks
- hermes chat -q with terminal tool call (exercises step_callback bridge)
- MCP probe against failing subprocess servers + factory path
- Real gateway daemon boot + SIGINT shutdown across multiple platform
adapter inits
- WSTransport 100 live + 50 dead-loop writes
- Cron delivery path live + dead loop
Salvages PR #2657 — adopts contributor's intent over a much wider site
list and a single centralized helper instead of inline try/except at
each site. 3 of the original PR's 6 sites no longer exist on main
(environments/patches.py deleted, DingTalk refactored to native async);
the equivalent fix lives in tools/environments/modal.py instead.

The contributor's commit author email is the legacy GitHub noreply
form (no leading numeric "id+"), so it doesn't match the
check-attribution workflow's auto-resolve regex
(\+.*@users\.noreply\.github\.com). Register it explicitly in
AUTHOR_MAP so the PR #26457 attribution check passes.
PR #22345 by @btorresgil authors commits as 'Brian Conklin
<brian@dralth.com>' (git config carries a different name/email than the
GitHub account). GitHub's commit-author mapping correctly attributes these
commits to @btorresgil based on the public-key registration, but Hermes'
release attribution audit reads the raw commit email, not the GitHub
mapping. Without this AUTHOR_MAP entry, salvaging #22345 would fail
`scripts/contributor_audit.py` strict mode at release time.
Prerequisite for the langfuse trace fix salvage that cherry-picks
@btorresgil's commits onto current main.
When a user sends a Slack message like '/hermes ' (trailing whitespace
after the slash) the legacy subcommand router hit `text.split()[0]` with
a truthy-but-whitespace-only `text`. `' '.split()` returns `[]` →
IndexError, blowing up the slash handler before fallthrough to `/help`.
Switch to a two-step guard that materializes the parts list first and
indexes only if non-empty.
Salvaged from PR #2752 by @nidhi-singh02. The PR's other two hunks
(`tools/file_operations.py`, `agent/anthropic_adapter.py`) are
unreachable in current code — `LINTERS` is a hardcoded constant dict
with no empty values, and the anthropic version-detection site is
already guarded by a `result.stdout.strip()` truthy check — so only the
slack hunk is taken.
Closes#2745

Some catalog endpoints (OpenCode Zen, etc.) sit behind a WAF that
returns 403 for the default Python-urllib/<ver> User-Agent. The
generic profile-based live fetch in providers/base.py was silently
failing for any such provider — falling through to the static catalog
and missing newly-launched models.
Set a generic 'hermes-cli/<version>' UA on the catalog probe so every
api_key provider profile benefits. Verified live against opencode-zen:
before this change, profile.fetch_models() raised HTTP 403; after, it
returns 42 models including gpt-5.5, gpt-5.5-pro, kimi-k2.6, glm-5.1
and the *-free variants the static catalog doesn't list.
Also strip the now-stale comment in validate_requested_model() claiming
opencode-zen's /models returns 404 against the HTML marketing site —
the API endpoint at /zen/v1/models returns 200 with valid JSON.
Surfaced by #2651 (@aashizpoudel) — fixes the same user-facing gap
their PR targeted, applied at the right layer so all api_key provider
profiles get live catalogs through the same code path.

- Adds plugins/platforms/simplex docs page to the messaging sidebar
between LINE and Open WebUI.
- Maps louismichalot@hotmail.com -> Mibayy in scripts/release.py so the
attribution check on the salvage PR passes.
Baileys' sock.sendMessage() can hang indefinitely while uploading
media to WhatsApp servers (and, less often, on text sends), pinning
the bridge's Express handler until the gateway's aiohttp timeout
fires — surfacing to the user as a 120s wait followed by an empty
error from the TTS/voice path.
Wrap every sock.sendMessage() call inside the bridge in a
sendWithTimeout() helper that rejects after WHATSAPP_SEND_TIMEOUT_MS
(default 60s) via Promise.race. The four call sites are /send,
/edit, and /send-media's primary send. Express handlers catch the
rejection in their existing try/catch and return a real 500 to the
gateway, which can then surface a retryable error.
Salvaged from #2608 — wysie diagnosed the hang and the
Promise.race shape; the other two parts of that PR (gateway HTTP
session pooling, base.py metadata kwarg removal) already landed on
main via separate routes and are no longer needed.
