Closes the remaining gaps to first-party Hermes Agent dashboard parity:
multi-board CRUD on /api/kanban/boards and a real-time event stream over
Server-Sent Events. Builds on top of #1660 (review-feedback hardening).
== Multi-board ==
Five new endpoints mirror the agent dashboard plugin contract verbatim
(plugins/kanban/dashboard/plugin_api.py) so a single CLI / gateway slash
command / dashboard / WebUI all share the same active-board pointer:
GET /api/kanban/boards
POST /api/kanban/boards
PATCH /api/kanban/boards/<slug>
DELETE /api/kanban/boards/<slug>
POST /api/kanban/boards/<slug>/switch
All existing endpoints accept ?board=<slug> (and writes also accept
'board' in the JSON body) — query takes precedence over body. The slug
travels through the kanban_db library which already had multi-board
support; the bridge is mostly thin wrappers around create_board /
remove_board / list_boards / set_current_board / get_current_board.
The default board is protected from deletion. Slugs are normalised
through kb._normalize_board_slug() with path-traversal rejection.
Archive is the default for DELETE; ?delete=1 hard-deletes.
Frontend gets a 'Default ▾' switcher pill in the panel header. The menu
lists every board (current first), per-status total badges, plus three
actions (New / Rename / Archive). Create + rename use the same modal
with a slug auto-derived from the name. Archive routes through the
existing showConfirmDialog with a clear 'tasks remain on disk and the
board can be restored from kanban/boards/_archived/' message.
Active-board state is persisted to localStorage so a refresh stays put.
The on-disk pointer in kanban/current is the cross-process source of
truth, kept in sync via POST /boards/<slug>/switch.
== SSE event stream ==
GET /api/kanban/events/stream is a long-lived Server-Sent Events feed
that mirrors the agent dashboard's WebSocket /events contract. The
WebUI uses SSE rather than WebSocket because (1) the existing transport
is BaseHTTPServer, not async — WS would require a significant refactor
or a hijack-the-socket hack; (2) SSE is the right tool for unidirectional
server-pushed event streams; (3) browsers auto-reconnect on drop;
(4) the existing /api/approval/stream and /api/clarify/stream patterns
are proven and easy to copy.
The handler polls task_events at 300ms (matching the agent dashboard's
WebSocket poll cadence) so write-to-receive latency is identical.
Heartbeats every 15s prevent proxy/CDN reaping. Hard cap of 200 events
per batch.
Frontend uses EventSource by default and falls back to 30s HTTP polling
after 3 SSE failures. A 250ms debounce coalesces bursts of N events
into a single board re-fetch. Stream is torn down when the user leaves
the Kanban panel.
== Bugs fixed during build ==
(1) read_only=True legacy lie. _board_payload, _events_payload,
_task_log_payload, and the no-change short-circuit all hardcoded
read_only=True from the read-only-bridge era of #1645. Bridge has
been writable since #1649 — flag now matches reality.
(2) Modal + dropdown menu transparent backgrounds. The PR stack used
var(--panel) which is undefined in the WebUI design system (uses
--surface, --bg, gradient panels). Replaced with the same gradient
+ accent border pattern used by the .app-dialog overlay.
(3) Archive race. kb.connect(board=<slug>) auto-materialises the
directory + sqlite on first call, so any in-flight SSE poll on a
board mid-archive would silently un-archive it by re-creating the
directory. Two-layer fix: (a) frontend stops the SSE stream BEFORE
the DELETE call, restarts on failure; (b) bridge's _kanban_sse_fetch_new
checks kb.board_exists() before connect(), returning empty results
when the board is gone.
(4) Save vs. Cancel button visual hierarchy. Both rendered as identical
secondary buttons in the modal. Save now uses the .primary class
with accent-tinted gold styling.
(5) Mobile viewport gaps. Added 9 rules under @media (max-width: 640px)
covering the switcher button (smaller padding/font), name truncation
(max-width:140px), menu sizing (min(280px, 100vw - 24px)), modal
padding, and inline-row stacking.
== Tests ==
+45 new tests across two files. Bridge tests: 18 covering board CRUD
endpoints, slug validation, default-board protection, dispatcher routing,
board isolation (verified via connect() spy), and 3 SSE tests including
a worker-thread integration test with threading.Event watchdog. UI static
tests: 11 covering switcher markup, modal markup, JS handler presence,
REST verb usage, board-param plumbing, localStorage persistence,
showConfirmDialog usage, EventSource subscription, polling fallback,
panel-switch teardown, and 250ms debouncing.
Bridge tests: 18 → 36 (+18 multi-board, +3 SSE)
UI static tests: 15 → 26 (+11)
Total kanban: 33 → 63
Full repo test suite: 4351 passed, 0 regressions.
== Live verification ==

Four follow-up issues found in the combined-stack live verification:
(1) handle_kanban_get had no exception handler; ImportError (webui-only deploy
without hermes_cli), ValueError, LookupError, RuntimeError would bubble
as 500. Wrapped in same exception cascade as POST/PATCH/DELETE.
(2) ImportError on any verb now returns 503 "kanban unavailable: <reason>"
instead of 500. Frontend's existing try/catch surfaces a clean toast.
(3) The 'Read-only view' banner (legacy of read-only PR #1645) was always
visible regardless of actual board state. Default-hidden in HTML;
loadKanban() toggles based on _kanbanBoard.read_only.
(4) .btn / .btn.secondary class names were referenced in 4 places (Bulk
action / Nudge dispatcher / New task / Back to board) but no matching
CSS shipped — buttons rendered as browser-default beveled controls
that clashed with the dark theme. Added scoped CSS rules under the
kanban-* parent containers.
+4 behavioral + static UI tests covering the contracts.

Two related dropdown bugs in one PR — same root shape (model-picker
endpoints disagreeing about which Nous Portal models exist) plus the
preemptive UX guard against the picker becoming unusable on large-tier
Nous accounts.
#1567 — Endpoint disagreement
=============================
Reporter (Deor, Discord, May 03 2026) saw Settings → Providers card
showing "Nous Portal — 396 models · OAuth" while the in-conversation
picker dropdown listed only the four hardcoded curated entries.
Two structural causes:
1. ``api/providers.py:get_providers`` iterates ALL OAuth providers
regardless of authentication state and unconditionally live-fetches
the catalog.
2. ``api/config.py:_build_available_models_uncached`` only iterates
providers in ``detected_providers``, gated on
``hermes_cli.models.list_available_providers().authenticated``.
That flag can disagree with ``get_auth_status(<id>).logged_in`` on
some hermes_cli versions.
When the disagreement happens for Nous, the picker silently falls
through to the curated 4-entry static list while the providers card
keeps showing the live catalog — exactly the asymmetry users report.
Plus: the Nous live-fetch branch in `_build_available_models_uncached`
fell back to the same curated 4-entry list when `provider_model_ids`
returned an empty list (transient failure / OAuth refresh in flight),
which doubles down on the disagreement instead of healing it.
UX cap (the design concern Nathan flagged on triage)
====================================================
Even with the disagreement fixed, dumping a 397-model catalog into a
flat dropdown is unusable. We trim the visible picker to a curated
~15-entry featured set when the catalog exceeds 25 models, and surface
the rest under a new ``extra_models`` field so:
- ``/model`` slash autocomplete (commands.js) covers the full catalog
- ``_dynamicModelLabels`` (ui.js) hydrates from both lists, so a model
selected from outside the featured slice still gets a proper label
- The optgroup label gets ``" (15 of 397)"`` appended so the user
understands the dropdown is intentionally trimmed, not broken
- The providers card surfaces ``models_total`` separately so the
header still reads "397 models · OAuth"
- A small "+N more" disclosure pill appears at the end of the rendered
pill list (only fires for non-OAuth providers — OAuth cards never
render pills) with a tooltip pointing at the slash command
Featured selection rules
------------------------
Deterministic; same algorithm runs in both `/api/models` and
`/api/models/live` so background enrichment doesn't undo the trim:
1. Always include the user's currently-selected model (sticky — no
orphan IDs in the dropdown after a refresh)
2. Always include every entry from the curated static
``_PROVIDER_MODELS["nous"]`` list whose id maps onto a live id
3. Top up to 15 by walking ``_NOUS_VENDOR_PRIORITY`` round-robin
(one model per vendor each pass) so no vendor monopolises the slots
Changes by file
===============
api/config.py
- New `_format_nous_label` neighbour: `_NOUS_FEATURED_THRESHOLD = 25`,
`_NOUS_FEATURED_TARGET = 15`, `_NOUS_VENDOR_PRIORITY` tuple,
`_build_nous_featured_set()` helper (~80 LOC)
- `_build_available_models_uncached` Nous branch:
- Apply featured-set cap with sticky-selection signal
- Return `extra_models` alongside `models` for the catalog tail
- Decorate optgroup label with truncation count
- Drop stale-4 fallback when authenticated but live-fetch empty
(omit the group entirely; truth lives in the providers card and
the next cache rebuild will heal it)
- Keep stale-4 fallback when hermes_cli is unavailable (test envs,
package mismatches) — that's a different failure mode
- Detection symmetry: explicit `get_auth_status("nous").logged_in`
check after the existing `list_available_providers()` loop, so the
picker matches the providers card on hermes_cli versions where the
two signals disagree
api/providers.py:get_providers
- Apply same featured-set cap so card body doesn't render 397 pills
- Add `models_total` field reporting full catalog size (used by
frontend for the "N models · OAuth" header text)
api/routes.py:_handle_live_models
- Apply same featured-set cap for `/api/models/live` so background
enrichment via `_fetchLiveModels()` doesn't undo the dropdown trim
- Use sticky-selection from `cfg["model"]["model"]` matching the main
endpoint's logic
static/ui.js:populateModelDropdown
- Hydrate `_dynamicModelLabels` from `g.extra_models` so a selection
outside the visible dropdown still renders with its proper label
static/commands.js:_loadSlashModelSubArgs
- Iterate `group.extra_models` so `/model` autocomplete covers the
full catalog (not just the trimmed featured slice)
static/panels.js:_buildProviderCard
- Header count uses `p.models_total` (full catalog size) instead of
`p.models.length` (trimmed slice)
- Render trailing "+N more" disclosure pill when `models.length <
models_total` with a tooltip pointing at the slash command
static/style.css
- New `.provider-card-model-tag-more` rule (italic, dashed border,
cursor:help, no select) — visually distinct from real model pills
Tests
=====
`tests/test_issue1567_nous_picker_capacity_and_symmetry.py` (20 tests):
- TestBuildNousFeaturedSet (8): unit tests on the helper —
small-catalog no-op, large-catalog cap to target, disjoint+complete
invariants, priority-vendor round-robin guarantee, sticky selection
with and without `@nous:` prefix, curated-flagship preservation,
empty-catalog handling, determinism
- TestApiModelsLargeCatalog (2): /api/models cap behavior end-to-end
on a synthetic 397-model catalog vs a 20-model catalog
- TestNousDetectionSymmetry (2): picker includes Nous when
`get_auth_status` agrees but `list_available_providers` disagrees;
picker omits Nous when both disagree
- TestNousLiveFetchEmpty (2): authenticated + empty-fetch omits group;
hermes_cli unavailable still falls back to static-4
- TestProvidersCardPickerSymmetry (1): both endpoints agree on
exactly the same featured-set IDs + total catalog count
- TestFrontendExtrasContract (4): static-source assertions pinning
the JS contract for `extra_models`, `models_total`, and the "+N more"
disclosure
Verified live on port 8789 (30-model catalog):
- /api/models Nous group: provider="Nous Portal (15 of 30)", 15 models,
15 extra_models
- /api/models/live?provider=nous: 15 entries (matches main path)
- /api/providers Nous card: models_total=30, models=15
- Browser dropdown after backfill: 15 options, 30 entries in
_dynamicModelLabels
- Sticky selection: Claude Opus 4.7 (the active model) in the featured
slice as expected
4073 pytest passed (was 4053 → 4073, +20 from this PR).
3 CI test runs (3.11/3.12/3.13) green.

Spliced from contributor PRs #1497 (Thanatos-Z) and #1513 (AlexeyDsov), which
both added the ability to filter the sidebar to sessions with no project_id
assigned. Lands here as a focused PR with the best of both:
## Synthesis decisions
- **Sentinel constant approach** (from #1497, Thanatos-Z): single state
variable (`_activeProject` set to `NO_PROJECT_FILTER` sentinel) instead
of a parallel `_showNoneProject` boolean. No two-state-machine ambiguity,
no risk of "All" + "Unassigned" both reading active. Clicking "All"
automatically clears the unassigned filter because there is only one
variable to reset.
- **Conditional rendering** (from #1497): the chip only appears when
there are actually unassigned sessions to filter to (`hasUnprojected`).
Common case where every session is organized → chip stays hidden,
uncluttered chip bar. The project-bar itself also renders when there
are unassigned sessions (was previously gated on `_allProjects.length`).
- **Dashed-border visual treatment** (from #1497): `.project-chip.no-project
{border-style:dashed;}` distinguishes the chip from real project chips
so it reads as a meta-filter ("things without a project") rather than
another project. Subtle but present.
- **"Unassigned" label** (new): clearer than #1497s "No project" (which
reads like a status filter) or #1513s "None" (which is ambiguous —
none of what?). Matches the conventional file-manager / task-tracker
mental model: "things not yet assigned to a category." Tooltip elaborates:
"Show conversations not yet assigned to a project."
- **Branched empty-state copy**: when the Unassigned filter is active
and the result is empty, show "No unassigned sessions." instead of
the generic "No sessions in this project yet."
## Tests
7 new tests in tests/test_sidebar_unassigned_filter.py pin every contract:
sentinel constant declared; filter logic uses !s.project_id when sentinel
is active; chip only renders when hasUnprojected; chip label and click
handler; visual treatment (dashed border + .no-project class); empty-state
copy branches on the active filter; All chip handler clears _activeProject
to null (would catch a regression if a parallel _showNoneProject boolean
is ever reintroduced).
Local full suite: 3929 → 3936 passing (+7).
Live verified at port 8789 with seeded data (5 projects + 73 unassigned
sessions in active profile): chip appears between "All" and project chips
when unassigned sessions exist; click cycles correctly; clicking a real
project hides the Unassigned chip from active state; clicking "All"
deactivates everything; dashed border present per getComputedStyle.

Prism's YAML grammar wraps tokens in <span> elements where white-space
defaults to normal, collapsing \n characters into spaces. The DOM
textContent is correct (confirmed by reporter's probe), so the bug is
purely CSS.
Force white-space:pre on .token elements inside language-yaml code
blocks for both .msg-body and .preview-md contexts.
Pre-fix, the wizard rejected an empty api_key for every provider in
_SUPPORTED_PROVIDER_SETUPS — including lmstudio, ollama, and custom,
which run keyless on the vast majority of local installs. The agent's
LMSTUDIO_NOAUTH_PLACEHOLDER substitution at chat-time was the workaround
for the no-auth case, but the wizard side rejected the empty input first.
Users had to type random gibberish into the API key field to clear the
form — the third sub-bug from #1420 that the prior commit's PR description
explicitly punted to a follow-up.
Surfaced by Nathan during PR review: "I think it's too weird for users
to have to type a string into the API key field, right?" Yes — and the
probe (#1499) makes the cleanest fix strictly better: we accept empty
keys, and the probe gives instant feedback ("Connected. 2 model(s)
available." for keyless servers, "401" for auth-required servers).
Backend changes
---------------
* `api/onboarding.py` — `_SUPPORTED_PROVIDER_SETUPS` gains
`key_optional: True` for `lmstudio`, `ollama`, `custom`. Cloud
providers (openrouter, anthropic, openai, gemini, deepseek, …)
remain key_required.
* `apply_onboarding_setup` skips the "{env_var} is required" check
when `key_optional` is set AND no key is supplied. No write to .env
for the empty-key case (no `LM_API_KEY=*** placeholder lying in the
user's .env`).
* `_status_from_runtime` reports `provider_ready=True` for key_optional
providers based on `requires_base_url` alone, so the wizard doesn't
refire on the next page load just because there's no api_key. Cloud
providers still need a key for provider_ready=True.
* `_build_setup_catalog` exposes the `key_optional` flag to the frontend.
Frontend changes
----------------
* `static/onboarding.js` — new `_renderOnboardingApiKeyField()` helper.
For key_optional providers:
- Label: "API key (optional)"
- Placeholder: "Leave blank for keyless servers"
- Inline italic muted help: "Most LM Studio / Ollama / vLLM installs
run keyless — leave this blank if your server doesn't require
authentication. Use the Test connection button to verify."
For cloud providers: unchanged (label "API key", standard placeholder,
no help block).
* The api-key input also now triggers `_scheduleOnboardingProbe()` on
oninput, so changing the key re-runs the probe — handles "the server
rejected my empty key with 401, let me add one and retry."
* `static/i18n.js` — 3 new keys × 9 locales (canonical English in `en`,
English fallback with `// TODO: translate` markers in the other 8).
* `static/style.css` — `.onboarding-api-key-help` rule for the muted
italic helper paragraph.
Verified end-to-end on port 8789
--------------------------------
Spun up an isolated test server + a mock LM Studio at
`127.0.0.1:11234/v1/models`. Stepped through the wizard:
* Picked LM Studio → field label flipped to "API key (optional)",
placeholder showed "Leave blank for keyless servers", help text
rendered in italic muted gray below.
* Switched to Anthropic → label reverted to "API key", help text
disappeared. Visual hierarchy correct.
* Left api_key blank, set base_url to the mock, clicked Test connection
→ green "Connected. 2 model(s) available." banner. Probe-discovered
models populated the workspace-step dropdown.
* Continued through to the finish step. config.yaml written with
provider/model/base_url. **`.env` does NOT exist** — no placeholder
string written. `chat_ready: true`, `state: ready`.
* Vision tool confirmed the visual hierarchy: subtle italic help
reads as documentation, prominent green banner pops as status.

Closes#1499 (all three sub-bugs from #1420 now addressed)
Addresses both #1499 (onboarding wizard never probes the configured base URL)
and #1500 (cross-tool env-var name divergence between webui and agent CLI).
Surfaced together because they're both LM-Studio onboarding bugs that pile
on top of each other — fixing only one leaves the broken UX.
#1499 — Onboarding wizard probes <base_url>/models before persisting
Pre-fix, `apply_onboarding_setup` accepted whatever `base_url` the user typed
without ever fetching `<base_url>/models`. @chwps's log timeline in #1420
showed the wizard finishing in 239ms with zero outbound HTTP — onboarding
silently persisted unreachable URLs and left users with empty model
dropdowns they had to populate by hand-editing config.yaml.
Backend:
* New `probe_provider_endpoint(provider, base_url, api_key, timeout=5.0)`
in `api/onboarding.py`. Stdlib-only (urllib + socket — no httpx dep).
Returns `{ok, models}` on success; `{ok: False, error: <code>, detail}`
on failure with stable error codes the frontend can switch on:
invalid_url, dns, connect_refused, timeout, http_4xx, http_5xx, parse,
unreachable. 256 KB response cap and 5s timeout keep a hostile or mis-
pointed endpoint from blocking the wizard.
* New `POST /api/onboarding/probe` route — thin JSON wrapper around the
function above. Same local-network gate as `/api/onboarding/setup`
because the body carries an `api_key` the user typed.
* The probe response is NEVER persisted. Only the user's typed selection
ends up in config.yaml; the probed model list just populates the
wizard's dropdown.
* SSRF: deliberately does NOT block private-IP ranges. The wizard is
gated behind WebUI auth and the legitimate target IS a local LM Studio
/ Ollama / vLLM server. A "block private IPs" SSRF defense would make
the feature useless for its primary use case.
Frontend:
* `static/onboarding.js`:
- New `ONBOARDING.probe` state ({status, error, detail, models, probedKey}).
- `_runOnboardingProbe()` — POSTs to /api/onboarding/probe, idempotent
& cached on (provider, baseUrl, apiKey).
- Debounced (400ms) on `oninput` of the base URL field.
- Explicit "Test connection" button.
- `nextOnboardingStep` blocks Continue at the setup step for any
provider with `requires_base_url=True` until the probe succeeds.
Same localized error renders inline.
* `static/i18n.js`: 13 new keys × 9 locales (canonical English in `en`,
English fallback with `// TODO: translate` markers in the other 8 —
same convention as v0.50.271 #1488 voice-buttons).
* `static/style.css`: probe banner + Test button styling (red-tinted
error variant, green-tinted success variant, neutral probing state).
Verified via manual repro on port 8789:
* connect_refused → red banner, helpful "from Docker, try the host IP"
hint, blocks Continue.
* DNS failure → red banner, "could not resolve host '...'", blocks Continue.
* Success against a mock /v1/models server → green banner, model dropdown
populates from the probed list, Continue advances normally.
#1500 — webui env var aligned with agent CLI (LM_API_KEY)
The webui has long used `LMSTUDIO_API_KEY` for LM Studio's API key in
both onboarding and Settings detection. The agent CLI runtime
(hermes_cli/auth.py:177-183) reads `LM_API_KEY`. So a user who configured
auth on their LM Studio instance got Settings → Providers reporting
has_key=True (because webui saw its own LMSTUDIO_API_KEY) but the agent
runtime ignored the key and fell back to LMSTUDIO_NOAUTH_PLACEHOLDER →
401 against the auth-enabled LM Studio server. Masked in practice for
the no-auth majority.
Picked Option B from the issue (defer to the agent — single source of
truth) but mitigated the migration cliff by reading the legacy name as
a fallback:
* `api/onboarding.py:_SUPPORTED_PROVIDER_SETUPS["lmstudio"]`:
- `env_var: "LM_API_KEY"` (canonical, what onboarding writes going forward).
- `env_var_aliases: ["LMSTUDIO_API_KEY"]` (read-only fallback for
pre-#1500 users so detection keeps working without forcing an
.env rewrite).
* `api/onboarding.py:_provider_api_key_present` reads aliases too.
* `api/providers.py:_PROVIDER_ENV_VAR["lmstudio"] = "LM_API_KEY"`.
* `api/providers.py:_PROVIDER_ENV_VAR_ALIASES["lmstudio"] = ("LMSTUDIO_API_KEY",)`
— new dict, used by `_provider_has_key` and `get_providers`'s
key_source resolution. Drops in cleanly when other providers later
rename their env vars too.
Verified:
```
before fix: webui writes LMSTUDIO_API_KEY → agent ignores it → 401 on chat
after fix: webui writes LM_API_KEY → agent picks it up → chat works
pre-#1500 .env with LMSTUDIO_API_KEY → still has_key=True in Settings
→ key_source='env_file'
```
Tests
* `tests/test_issue1499_onboarding_probe.py` — 17 tests:
3 invalid_url variants, dns, connect_refused, success (OpenAI shape),
success (bare-list shape), http_4xx, http_5xx, parse non-JSON, parse
wrong-shape, api_key authorization header passthrough, "probe must
not write to config.yaml or .env", PROBE_ERROR_CODES contract pin,
3 end-to-end route-level smoke tests against the live server fixture.
* `tests/test_issue1500_lmstudio_env_var_alignment.py` — 5 tests:
onboarding declares LM_API_KEY canonical with LMSTUDIO_API_KEY alias,
onboarding writes ONLY the canonical name, legacy env var still
detected post-migration, canonical takes precedence when both are
set, _provider_api_key_present reads aliases.
* `tests/test_issue1420_lmstudio_provider_env_var.py` — updated:
the original 5-test #1420 suite now pins LM_API_KEY as canonical
and LMSTUDIO_API_KEY as alias.
Full suite: 3879 → 3901 passing (+22), 0 failures.
Out of scope (explicitly NOT addressed here)
The third LM Studio onboarding sub-bug from #1420's thread — that
`apply_onboarding_setup` requires a non-empty api_key for lmstudio
even though most LM Studio installs run keyless — remains. The agent's
`LMSTUDIO_NOAUTH_PLACEHOLDER` substitution kicks in at runtime, but
the onboarding wizard rejects the empty-key case at submit. Fixing
this requires a UX decision (auto-write a sentinel? loosen the
required-key check for self-hosted providers?) and is left as a
separate follow-up.

common shape — narrow, well-scoped, independent of each other, all adding
regression tests.
== #1442: _LOGIN_LOCALE parity (api/routes.py + static/i18n.js) ==
Added entries for ja/pt/ko to the server-side _LOGIN_LOCALE dict that renders
the localized login page BEFORE the JS i18n bundle loads. With v0.50.264
shipping Japanese as the 8th built-in locale, ja/pt/ko users were seeing the
English login page even with their language preference set.
While auditing static/i18n.js for English leakage, also fixed:
- ko: 10 user-facing login/sign-out/password keys still in English
- es: 3 sign-out/auth-disabled keys still in English
Tests: tests/test_login_locale_parity.py (20 tests) — pins both invariants:
(a) every locale in i18n.js LOCALES has a matching _LOGIN_LOCALE entry
(b) every locale's login-flow keys (13 of them) are translated, not English
== #1443: window._isImeEnter promotion ==
PR #1441 fixed the Safari IME-composition Enter race in the chat composer
(`#msg`) by widening the guard from `e.isComposing` to a `_isImeEnter(e)`
helper that combines three signals (isComposing || keyCode===229 ||
_imeComposing flag). Six other Enter-input handlers were left on the original
narrow guard and would still drop IME composition Enters on Safari for
Japanese/Chinese/Korean users.
Promoted the helper to `window._isImeEnter` (defined in static/boot.js) and
replaced the `e.isComposing` guards at all six sites:
- static/sessions.js: session rename, project create, project rename
- static/ui.js: app dialog (confirm/prompt), message edit, workspace rename
The state-free part of the helper (`isComposing || keyCode===229`) handles
Safari's race for any focused input without needing per-input composition
listeners — only `#msg` keeps the local `_imeComposing` flag.
Tests:
- tests/test_issue1443_ime_helper_promotion.py (9 tests) — pins each site
+ verifies no raw `e.isComposing` Enter-guards remain in sessions.js/ui.js
- tests/test_ime_composition.py — alternation regex extended to accept
the windowed helper form (loosen-test-on-shape-change pattern from
v0.50.264 reflection notes)
== #1446: glued-bold-heading lift (static/ui.js renderMd + Python mirror) ==
LLMs in thinking/reasoning mode emit "section headers" glued to the end of the
previous paragraph with no whitespace:
Para 1 text.**Heading to Para 2**
Para 2 text.**Heading to Para 3**
The renderer correctly produces inline `<strong>` per CommonMark, but it looks
like trailing emphasis on the body text rather than a section break. Cygnus
reported this as "Markdown feedback 2 of 3."
Added a single regex pre-pass in renderMd():
s.replace(/([.!?])\*\*([^*\n]{1,80})\*\*\n\n/g, '$1\n\n**$2**\n\n')
Constraints chosen to avoid false positives:
- Trigger only on `[.!?]` IMMEDIATELY before `**` (no space) — almost always
an LLM-glued heading, not intentional emphasis
- Inner text ≤80 chars, no `*` or newline (single-line only)
- Trailing `\n\n` required — preserves "this is **important** to know."
mid-paragraph emphasis untouched
- Position: after rawPreStash restore, before fence_stash restore — fenced
code blocks stay protected (their content is `\x00P` / `\x00F` tokens
when the lift runs)
Mirrored in tests/test_sprint16.py render_md() so both stay in sync.
Tests: tests/test_issue1446_glued_heading_lift.py (17 tests, 5 of which drive
the actual ui.js renderMd via node) — covers all 3 trigger forms (.!?), all 4
preserve-emphasis cases the issue spec'd, fenced/inline code protection,
chained glued headings, source-level position pin, regex shape pin.
== #1447: markdown heading visual hierarchy (static/style.css) ==
Pre-fix sizes in `.msg-body`:
h1 18px, h2 16px, h3 14px (= body), h4 13px, h5 12px, h6 11px
So h3 was indistinguishable from body and h4/h5/h6 were SMALLER than body.
Cygnus's report: "Markdown feedback 3 of 3 — Headings seem to be missing
across the board in Hermes. They're there, but all plaintext."
New sizes:
h1 24px (border-bottom) h2 20px (border-bottom) h3 17px h4 15px
h5 14px (uppercase, tracked) h6 13px (uppercase, tracked, muted)
All headings now `font-weight:700` + `color:var(--strong)` for stronger ink.
h5/h6 use uppercase + letter-spacing for "label-style" affordance instead
of being smaller-than-body.
Synced .preview-md (file preview pane) to match exactly so a markdown file
preview and a chat message render identically. Added missing h4/h5/h6 rules
to .preview-md (it only had h1-h3 before).
Updated data-font-size="small"/"large" h1-h6 overrides to scale
proportionally with the new defaults. Hierarchy preserved at all three
font-size settings.
Tests: tests/test_issue1447_heading_hierarchy.py (9 tests) — pins the size
hierarchy, the bottom borders on h1/h2, the uppercase affordance on h5/h6,
the .preview-md sync, and the small/large override scaling.
== Verification ==
pytest tests/ -q → 3748 passed (+56 new)
bash ~/WebUI/scripts/run-browser-tests.sh → 20 + 11 PASS
bash ~/WebUI/scripts/webui_qa_agent.sh 8789 → 23/23 PASS
Visual confirmation in browser at port 8789:
- Heading hierarchy clearly visible at all 6 levels
- Glued-bold lift produces separate paragraphs as designed
- window._isImeEnter accessible from any module after boot.js
- Login page renders ja/pt/ko strings correctly (curl -s /login)
Three fixes from Opus advisor review of stage-261:
1. CRITICAL: dropdown-survives-resize bug. The composerToolsetsDropdown is a
DOM sibling of composerToolsetsWrap, not a child, so CSS hiding the wrap
does not cascade-hide an open dropdown. If a user opens the dropdown at
composer-footer >= 1100px and then opens the workspace panel (or resizes
the window), the dropdown would stay open without a visible anchor.
Fixed in three places (defense-in-depth):
- resize listener: closes dropdown when chip.offsetParent === null
- _positionToolsetsDropdown: closes if chip hidden (defense-in-depth)
- toggleToolsetsDropdown: early-returns if chip hidden (defense against
future #1431 redesign code that might invoke from elsewhere)
2. MEDIUM: display:flex changed to display:block to match sibling wraps
(.composer-profile-wrap, .composer-model-wrap, .composer-reasoning-wrap
all use the natural block display).
3. Added 3 new regression tests to pin all three guards.
Refs #1431, #1433.
Replaces PR #1433 unconditional JS display:none with a CSS @container query
that shows the chip only at composer-footer widths >= 1100px. JS now clears
inline style instead of setting display:none, so the CSS responsive cascade
is the single source of truth. Also removed inline style=\"display:none\" from
index.html so the CSS base rule provides the default-hidden state.
10 regression tests pin the base hide, wide-container show, narrow-container
hide (520px container query), mobile viewport hide (640px @media), JS does
not force display:none, JS clears inline style, /api/session/toolsets and
the dropdown machinery (toggleToolsetsDropdown, _populateToolsetsDropdown)
are preserved.
