fix(agent,tools,gateway,plugins): add usedforsecurity=False to non-security hashlib calls

[AlexFucuson9]

Summary

hashlib.md5() and hashlib.sha1() without usedforsecurity=False raise ValueError on FIPS-enabled systems (OpenSSL 3.0+ with FIPS provider).

All 16 call sites across 8 files use hashing for cache keys, content dedup, or upload integrity checks — none are security-sensitive (passwords, signatures).

Files changed

File	Count	Purpose
agent/context_compressor.py	1	content dedup hash
agent/codex_responses_adapter.py	1	seed digest
plugins/platforms/wecom/adapter.py	1	data integrity md5
tools/skills_sync.py	1	file content hash
tools/skills_hub.py	5	cache key generation
gateway/platforms/weixin.py	2	content key + file hash
gateway/platforms/yuanbao_media.py	2	data hash + http signature
gateway/platforms/qqbot/chunked_upload.py	3	upload integrity md5/sha1

Intentionally skipped

• gateway/platforms/wecom/wecom_crypto.py:63 — crypto signature (sha1 for HMAC-like verification), security-sensitive use.

Test plan

• python3 -m py_compile on all 8 changed files
• Existing tests pass unchanged (no behavioral difference on non-FIPS systems)

Related to #51962 (same author, FIPS usedforsecurity=False hardening) — this PR is a superset: it covers all 5 files in #51962 plus agent/codex_responses_adapter.py, gateway/platforms/qqbot/chunked_upload.py, and gateway/platforms/yuanbao_media.py. Also related to the broader FIPS cluster (#51973 sha, #27368 bandit B324, #48472 skills_hub). Maintainers may prefer to consolidate onto one PR.

Code Review Summary

Verdict: Approved

Looks Good

• Mechanical fix: adds usedforsecurity=False to hashlib calls across 8 files
• Correctly marks non-security hash operations (content dedup, file upload checksums, etc.)
• Prevents FIPS compliance issues on restricted environments
• No behavioral changes — purely compliance safety
• Touches agent, tools, CLI, gateway, and plugins uniformly

Note: This PR is a superset of #51962 (now closed). It covers all 5 files from that PR plus additional agent/codex_response_parser.py. This is the consolidated version for FIPS usedforsecurity=False hardening.

Caveat up front: I'm an integration guy, not a programmer, and don't normally contribute — so grain of salt.

I hit the same FIPS issue on Rocky Linux 9.8 and can confirm this PR fixes it there. One gap remains though: some hardened setups reject MD5/SHA-1 even with usedforsecurity=False (see python/cpython#128071 and python/cpython#118224).

With some AI assistance I built a follow-up commit on top of this PR: keep the legacy digest where the runtime allows it, fall back to SHA-256 only where it refuses. Internal values only — output shapes unchanged, so non-FIPS systems behave identically. Protocol-defined hashes (QQ Bot, WeCom, Weixin, Yuanbao) are untouched, and a test guards that boundary.

Changed:

File	Purpose
agent/internal_hash.py (new)	fallback helper
agent/context_compressor.py	dedup hash
agent/codex_responses_adapter.py	fallback fc_ ID
tools/skills_sync.py	change-detection hash
tools/skills_hub.py	cache keys (incl. one MD5 call this PR missed)
tests/agent/test_internal_hash.py (new)	19 tests, all passing

Tests simulate the strict runtime by patching hashlib.new, so no FIPS CI runner needed. Known limitation: on strict systems, old MD5 manifest hashes in ~/.hermes/skills won't match, so synced skills may look user-modified and get skipped — conservative, fixable later with algorithm-prefixed hashes if wanted.

Feel free to cherry-pick — I'd rather extend your fix than open a competing PR. If the approach is wrong, happy to learn.

Thanks for consolidating the FIPS hardening work. The current-main premise is real, but this needs a narrower and more complete salvage.

Problems

• tools/skills_hub.py:2474 still computes the clawhub_search_catalog_v1 cache key with bare hashlib.md5; the PR updates four related cache keys but leaves this current sibling path able to fail.
• The changed _cos_sign digest is part of a COS Authorization derivation: gateway/platforms/yuanbao_media.py:305-344 builds HMAC-SHA1 signatures around the sha1_of_http value. That is not equivalent to the cache/dedup uses elsewhere, and the remaining HMAC-SHA1 calls are unchanged.
• No regression test exercises FIPS-style constructor behavior. Existing QQ Bot tests at tests/gateway/test_qqbot.py:725-745 validate output shape only.

Suggested changes

• Cover the remaining Skills Hub cache-key call at tools/skills_hub.py:2474 and add constructor-keyword regression tests.
• Keep COS protocol signing out of this non-security sweep unless its full compatibility behavior is separately verified.

Automated hermes-sweeper review.

[teknium1]

This SHA-1 digest feeds StringToSign in the COS Authorization flow; the same function uses HMAC-SHA1 immediately before and after it. Please keep protocol-signing code out of this non-security sweep unless the complete FIPS behavior of the authorization algorithm is verified.

[teknium1]

Please also cover the current ClawHub catalog cache key at tools/skills_hub.py:2474 (clawhub_search_catalog_v1), which remains a bare hashlib.md5 call outside this four-site batch.
