fix(acp): parse <tool_use> XML tags from Copilot ACP long_context mode

[EdderTalmor]

Summary

When Copilot ACP is invoked with --context long_context, the model emits
Anthropic/Claude native <tool_use> XML tags instead of Hermes' expected
0xN format. This commit adds regex parsing for both self-closing
<tool_use name="..." arguments="..." id="..." /> and opening/closing
<tool_use>{JSON}</tool_use> formats.

Changes

• Added _TOOL_USE_XML_RE regex pattern to match <tool_use> XML tags
• Updated _extract_tool_calls_from_text() to parse <tool_use> tags
• Added test cases for all supported <tool_use> formats

Testing

• All existing tests pass
• Added 5 new test cases covering:
  • Self-closing tags with JSON arguments
  • Self-closing tags with simple arguments
  • Self-closing tags with input attribute
  • Opening/closing tags with JSON content
  • Mixed <tool_use> and Hermes XML formats

Fixes #45139

Verified clean — bundled PR with multiple concerns.

Reviewed 4 distinct changes in this PR:

1. <tool_use> XML parsing (copilot_acp_client.py): The regex _TOOL_USE_XML_RE correctly handles both self-closing tags (<tool_use name="..." arguments="..." id="..." />) and opening/closing tags (<tool_use>{...}</tool_use>). The arguments attribute capture group handles embedded quotes. Good test coverage with 5 test cases.

2. HERMES_SLASH_WORKER auto-approve (cli.py): The early-return "once" in _confirm_destructive_slash when HERMES_SLASH_WORKER=1 is intentional — the TUI gateway slash worker is a non-interactive JSON protocol where the user already confirmed by sending the command. The env var is set in tui_gateway/slash_worker.py only.

3. Status response caching (web_server.py): 5s TTL for /api/status, 30s TTL for gateway config. Thread-safe with locks. The PYTEST_CURRENT_TEST bypass prevents cross-test contamination. Acceptable for a status endpoint.

4. Poll interval changes (useSidebarStatus.ts, SessionsPage.tsx): Sidebar poll 10s→30s, sessions overview 5s→15s. Reasonable for reducing unnecessary API calls.

No issues found.

Thanks for targeting a verified Copilot ACP regression. Current main still only extracts <tool_call> blocks and OpenAI-shaped bare JSON in agent/copilot_acp_client.py:333-343, so the <tool_use> gap remains.

Problems

• The new helper returns SimpleNamespace calls, but current main deliberately constructs ChatCompletionMessageToolCall objects through _build_openai_tool_call() in agent/copilot_acp_client.py:236-249 (introduced by 0106082d1). Preserve that contract when adding this parser.
• The new tests accept raw values such as "ls -la" and "path=/tmp/test.txt" as function arguments. Current execution rejects non-JSON arguments at agent/conversation_loop.py:4531-4549, so these paths still cannot execute a tool.
• The bundled status cache needs reconsideration during salvage: current /api/status is profile-scoped at hermes_cli/web_server.py:2555-2571, while the proposed cache has one global response.

Suggested changes

• Port only the ACP parser through the current OpenAI-shaped call factory and add a fixture from the reported long-context output.
• Require normalized JSON-object arguments for every extracted call, with an end-to-end adapter-level assertion that the call reaches the execution path.
• Split or omit the unrelated slash-worker and dashboard caching changes.
