feat(cli): Ctrl+S prompt stash with browsable panel (salvage of #4771 by @iRonin) by teknium1 · Pull Request #72262 · NousResearch/hermes-agent

teknium1 · 2026-07-26T22:02:55Z

Summary

Ctrl+S parks your half-written prompt and clears the composer; a browsable stash panel brings any of them back. Multi-item, so a second stash never clobbers the first. Salvage of #4771 by @iRonin (CK iRonin.IT), with the missing half rebuilt.

Ported from Claude Code, whose shortcut panel lists ctrl + s to stash prompt — read live from a tmux PTY session of CC 2.1.220. Hermes had nothing.

Salvage notes

The PR was non-functional as submitted — worth stating plainly since it's why this needed rebuilding rather than just cherry-picking:

Merge base was 14,136 commits behind main.
Of its 6 commits, 1 applied cleanly (the panel renderer). One of the others deleted the panel code when applied out of order.
No c-s keybinding existed in any commit — it was lost in the contributor's own rebase, leaving the panel predicate reading undefined state. The feature could never have been reached.

So: contributor's panel-renderer commit cherry-picked (real authorship in history, not just a trailer), then the keybinding + state machine surgically reapplied on top with a Co-authored-by trailer. Email mapping already present via LEGACY_AUTHOR_MAP (cyprian@ironin.pl → iRonin).

Changes

hermes_cli/prompt_stash.py — stash state machine (pure, testable)
cli.py — Ctrl+S binding + panel navigation handlers (up/down, enter restore, del remove, esc close)
website/docs/user-guide/cli.md — Ctrl+S in the shortcut list
tests/cli/test_prompt_stash.py + tests/cli/test_prompt_stash_cli.py — 93 tests

Validation

	Result
2 targeted test files via `scripts/run_tests.sh`	93 passed, 0 failed
stash → restore round-trips multi-line text exactly	asserted
per-CLI-instance isolation (no cross-session draft leak)	asserted

I removed two tests the salvage added that asserted handlers exist by reading cli.py's source text — the root AGENTS.md bans that outright (passes when a handler is wired wrong, fails on a correct rename). The rebase-loss failure mode is instead covered by the state-machine tests every handler delegates to. Extracting run()'s keybindings into a standalone registrar would allow direct handler tests; noted as out of scope here.

Infographic

Ctrl+S pushes/pops/browses a stash stack instead of a single slot: - Buffer has content: push to stash - Buffer empty + 1 item: pop immediately - Buffer empty + 2+ items: open panel browser Panel: ↑↓ navigate, Enter restore, D delete, Esc/Ctrl+S close. Status bar shows 📌 N count, 📌 N ▲ when panel open.

…ne, tests Finishes the input stash started in the preceding commit from PR #4771. That PR shipped only the panel renderer: its `@kb.add('c-s')` handler and stash-state initialization were lost in a rebase, so the panel predicate read undefined `_stash_panel_open` / `_stash_list` and the feature was unreachable. This adds the missing half and the tests the PR never had. Resolves the review feedback on #4771: - Rebuilt the stash on current main's keybinding setup. The `c-s` key was unbound repo-wide, so there is no conflict. - Extracted the state machine into `hermes_cli/prompt_stash.py` as pure functions (no prompt_toolkit import) so it is directly unit testable — the PR was cli.py-only with zero tests. - Dropped the PR's unrelated changes: delegation `supervisor_model` / `execution_model` config aliases, and stale reverts of the banner builder, worktree pruning, logging setup, and MCP toolset validation that its 14k-commit-old base dragged along. - Fixed the 📌 double-width measurement for real. Three commits in the PR ("subtract 1 from len()", "use bare len()", "subtract 1 again") were chasing this by tweaking `len()`; all horizontal math now goes through `_status_bar_display_width` (prompt_toolkit `get_cwidth`), which also keeps CJK previews inside the border. Narrow terminals fall back to compact header/footer labels instead of overflowing — caught by a parametrized width test, not by eyeballing. Gesture (the contributor's design, kept): - Composer has content → push onto the stash, clear the input. - Composer empty, one stashed → pop it straight back. - Composer empty, 2+ stashed → open the browse panel (↑↓ / Enter / D / Esc). - Panel open → Ctrl+S closes it. Pushing onto a stack rather than a single slot is what makes repeated Ctrl+S safe: a second stash never silently overwrites the first, and with 2+ parked the panel asks rather than guessing which to restore. A `📌 N` status-bar badge and a composer placeholder advertise the parked draft so it cannot be silently forgotten. Deliberate departures from the PR: - No auto-restore after the agent responds, and no `display.stash_auto_restore` config key. The PR itself had already defaulted this to false as "avoids surprising the user"; a keystroke the user pressed should not cause text to reappear on its own, so the dead default is dropped rather than carried as config surface. - Nothing is persisted to disk. Drafts routinely contain pasted credentials and NDA material, so the stash is session-scoped and in-memory only. Any future persistence must route through `get_hermes_home()`. - Suppressed while a modal prompt owns the composer (sudo / secret / approval / clarify / slash-confirm / model picker) so Ctrl+S can never stash a password. - Restoring images extends `_attached_images` instead of replacing it, so an attachment added since the stash was taken is not silently dropped. - `buf.reset()` on stash (not `text = ""`) clears completion state, selection, and undo stack with the text. Tests: 95 new tests across two files — 66 on the state machine (empty buffer is a no-op, exact round-trips including newlines/tabs/CJK/fences, no-clobber ordering, cap eviction, indicator states, panel cursor clamping and deletion, the full resolve_ctrl_s decision table) and 29 on the cli.py wiring (per-instance stash, keybinding registration guard, layout slot, panel bounded at 8 widths, status-bar indicator lifecycle). The keybinding-registration test asserts the `c-s` handler exists in source specifically so the rebase loss that broke #4771 cannot recur. Verified: 153 passed, 0 failed across the two new files plus tests/cli/test_cli_init.py and tests/cli/test_cli_extension_hooks.py. ruff check clean; check-windows-footguns clean. Docs: Ctrl+S added to the CLI keybindings table. Co-authored-by: CK iRonin.IT <cyprian@ironin.pl>

Two tests read cli.py's source to prove handlers exist. Root AGENTS.md bans that outright: it passes when a handler is wired wrong and fails on a correct rename. The #4771 rebase-loss regression is guarded by the state-machine tests every handler delegates to.

Around that spine: the desktop app became a platform (artifacts with live preview, a plugin SDK, quick-entry from anywhere, multiple windows), the CLI got a wave of power commands (`!` shell mode, `/init`, `/diff`, `/context`, `/focus`), compression got smarter and gentler, and the tools themselves now recover from their own failures instead of making the model guess. This release rolls up everything from the v0.19.1 infrastructure patch tag — that window is fully documented here. *** ##### ✨ Highlights - **Talk to Hermes — streaming, conversational voice with barge-in** — Voice mode used to mean: speak, wait for the whole reply to generate, then listen to one long audio file. Now Hermes speaks clause-by-clause as the response streams, you can interrupt it mid-sentence by just talking (it stops, listens, and the model is told you cut in), and busy-aware silence detection means it doesn't talk over you. This works in CLI voice mode, on the desktop, and through gateway adapters. Talking to Hermes finally feels like a conversation, not a voicemail exchange.

Multi-profile voice routing means different wake words can reach different profiles, and saying "stop" ends the voice chat on every surface without touching the keyboard. Your terminal is now something you can talk to from across the room.

STT is now fully configurable — its own `hermes tools` category, GUI toggles, dashboard dropdowns, unified language resolution so transcripts stop coming back in the wrong language, and OpenAI's gpt-transcribe support. One unified spoken-text preprocessor cleans markdown, code, and URLs out of speech across all TTS providers.

If you use Hermes for research, this is the difference between "sounds right" and "provably sourced." ([#71698](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/71698), [#77104](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/77104) — [@teknium1](https://github.com/teknium1)) - **Outbound webhooks — Hermes pushes events to your systems** — Until now, integrating with Hermes meant polling or listening on a platform. Now Hermes pushes **signed lifecycle events** (session activity, turn completions, tool events) to any HTTP endpoint you register — with HMAC signatures so your receiver can verify authenticity. Wire Hermes into your CI, your home automation, your dashboards, or any service that speaks HTTP, with no polling loop.

A real **plugin SDK** landed with Kanban as its founding plugin, `ctx.download` for handing users files, floating pane placement, and multiple GUI windows. A global-hotkey **quick-entry window** captures a thought into any session from anywhere in your OS. The desktop stopped being a chat client and started being a workbench.

This closes issue [#514](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/issues/514) — one of the oldest open feature requests in the repo. If you're building multi-agent systems with heterogeneous stacks, Hermes now has a standard wire protocol for joining them.

Type a correction while it works and the active turn is redirected: work in flight is preserved, the original prompt is kept, and the agent course-corrects with your new guidance. Paired with double-ESC draft discard and a composer undo stack, steering feels like editing, not restarting.

The default tool-calling iteration limit also jumped 90 → 500 — long autonomous runs stopped hitting an artificial wall.
