Hermes-side of the Mavis harness v0 (3-repo coordinated)

The companion slice to POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES.AI PR NousResearch#2477 and POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES-pinokio PR #1 (feat/pmoves-app-launcher). The CGP (pmoves.bootstrap/v1) is the contract that ties the 3 forks together: PMOVES.AI writes it, PMOVES-hermes-agent reads it at session init + registers PMOVES tools alongside the native toolset, PMOVES-pinokio reads it when launching a PMOVES-tagged app.

What this PR ships (8 files, 3 stacked commits)

  • pmoves_bootstrap/loader.py — the CGP reader. Accepts both YAML and JSON (Hermes has pyyaml==6.0.3 in core deps). 4 input sources in priority order: path arg, source arg, env var, vendored example. Validates structurally against the vendored JSON Schema. Returns a typed Bootstrap dataclass with has_tool / has_mcp / has_constraint / service / route_for accessors. Stub Bootstrap (safe defaults, all 6 constraints) when no CGP is present.
  • pmoves_bootstrap/tools_bridge.py — registers PMOVES tools in the session. Resolves each bootstrap.tools entry against the v0 tool registry (Python scripts + CLI binaries). Returns a BridgeResult with registered / skipped / disabled lists. The session init code (a future slice) merges registered tools into Hermes's active toolset. PMOVES_TOOLS_DISABLE env var is a per-tool deny list.
  • pmoves_bootstrap/subscriber.py — the optional NATS subscriber. v0 is a STUB (no nats-py in Hermes's core deps). subscribe() always returns a SubscriberStatus with enabled=False and a clear reason. TaskEnvelope / ResultEnvelope dataclasses document the wire contract so a future slice can wire in nats-py without changing the public surface. Subjects: pmoves.agent.task.v1 (input), pmoves.agent.result.v1 (output), pmoves.bpm.phase.v1 + pmoves.bpm.pomodoro.v1 (observability).
  • pmoves_bootstrap/__init__.py — public surface, re-exports all of the above.
  • pmoves_bootstrap/cgp_schema/v1.schema.json + example.cgp.yaml — vendored copies of the PMOVES.AI schema + example.
  • tests/test_pmoves_bootstrap.py — 33 tests, 9 test groups, pytest.
  • pmoves_bootstrap/README.md — high-level map + non-breaking contract + design choices + cross-fork plan.

Tests (33/33 pass)

python -m pytest tests/test_pmoves_bootstrap.py -v -o addopts=
# 33 passed in 3.50s

(The -o addopts= override is needed on Windows where the project-level pytest-timeout addopts expects SIGALRM which doesn't exist on Windows.)

Non-breaking contract (enforced by the constraints baked into the CGP)

Constraint What it means for Hermes
no-override-existing-config Hermes's own config (cli-config.yaml, hermes_state) is never replaced by the CGP
tagged-services-are-advisory The services block (Tailscale, RustDesk, Hostinger, Cloudflare) is a hint — missing services are skipped, not failed
no-chit-bypass State-changing actions still go through pmoves-chit-sign, not directly through the CGP
no-force-push Lane rule (this PR's commits use rebase, never raw --force)
no-ci-bypass Lane rule (PR is in DRAFT, no --admin to skip CI)
preserve-existing-tools Hermes's existing toolset (toolsets.py) is preserved; the bridge adds PMOVES tools alongside, never in place of

The test pair (proves non-breaking):

  • No CGP presentload_bootstrap() returns the stub Bootstrap. register_pmoves_tools() returns BridgeResult(registered=[]). subscribe() returns SubscriberStatus(enabled=False). Hermes runs as it does today.
  • CGP present → the CGP is validated against the vendored schema, the PMOVES tools are registered alongside Hermes's native tools, the optional NATS subscriber can pick up Mavis-orchestrator tasks.

Design choices

  • YAML + JSON. Hermes has pyyaml==6.0.3 and ruamel.yaml==0.18.17 in core deps, so the loader accepts both formats. YAML is the natural format (the PMOVES.AI side writes the canonical CGP in YAML for human editing); JSON is supported for PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP raw-string env vars.
  • No jsonschema validator. The structural check covers the 80% case (required fields, const spec, enum values, super_nodes: []) with zero new deps. If strict JSON Schema validation is needed for CHIT-signed CGPs in a future slice, the operator can install jsonschema and run it externally.
  • No nats-py in v0. nats-py is not in Hermes's core dependencies. Adding it would be a meaningful change to pyproject.toml — the deps list explicitly warns against adding new packages (see the Mini Shai-Hulud comment on the existing dependencies list). The v0 subscriber is a STUB with a stable wire contract documented via TaskEnvelope / ResultEnvelope dataclasses. A future slice can add nats-py + implement subscribe() without changing the public surface.
  • No modifications to existing Hermes files. This PR only adds new files: the pmoves_bootstrap/ package, the test file, and the README. cli.py, run_agent.py, toolsets.py, pyproject.toml, hermes_bootstrap.py (the Windows UTF-8 helper, unrelated) — all unchanged.

Cross-fork plan (the 3 PRs of harness v0)

  1. POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES.AI PR fix(telegram): auto-reconnect polling after network interruption NousResearch/hermes-agent#2477 (writer) — load_bootstrap.py + orchestrator.py + bpm_cron.py + 56/56 tests
  2. POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES-hermes-agent PR feat/pmoves-bootstrap-consumer (this PR, agent) — pmoves_bootstrap/ package + 33/33 tests
  3. POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES-pinokio PR chore: sync upstream (10 commits behind) #1 (app launcher) — pmoves_loader.js + example app + 24/24 tests

All three read the same v1.schema.json. The schema is the contract.

What this slice does NOT do (intentional, follow-up)

  • Wiring into run_agent.py / cli.py — the actual integration point in Hermes's session lifecycle is a follow-up. v0 ships the package; the operator (or a future slice) wires the public API into the session init code.
  • Real nats-py subscriber — see "Why no nats-py in v0" above.
  • CHIT trail signing — the no-chit-bypass constraint is honored by the loader's behavior, but no actual CHIT signing code lives in this package. The Mavis orchestrator side does the signing.
  • Per-session tool allow-list — a future slice can extend register_pmoves_tools() with a per-identity allow-list. v0 trusts the operator's CGP as-is.

CHIT trail unsigned-local

No CHIT_PASSPHRASE loaded in this Mavis session per the standing operator convention.

CLAIM the Hermes-agent fork's slice of the Mavis harness v0 (3-repo
coordinated). Companion to POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES.AI PR NousResearch#2477 and
POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES-pinokio PR #1 (feat/pmoves-app-launcher).
The CGP (pmoves.bootstrap/v1) is the contract that ties the 3
forks together: PMOVES.AI writes it, PMOVES-hermes-agent reads it
at session init + registers PMOVES tools alongside the native
toolset, PMOVES-pinokio reads it when launching a PMOVES-tagged
app.

What this commit ships:

- pmoves_bootstrap/loader.py - the CGP reader. Accepts both YAML
  and JSON (Hermes has pyyaml==6.0.3 in core deps, so YAML is the
  natural format; JSON is supported for PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP raw-
  string env vars). 4 input sources in priority order: path arg,
  source arg, PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP[_PATH] env var, vendored
  example. Validates structurally (the vendored v1.schema.json is
  the source of truth, but no jsonschema dep is added - the thin
  structural check covers the 80% case). Returns a typed Bootstrap
  object with has_tool/has_mcp/has_constraint/service/route_for
  accessors. Stub Bootstrap (safe defaults, all 6 constraints)
  when no CGP is present - the non-breaking fallback.

- pmoves_bootstrap/tools_bridge.py - the PMOVES tools bridge.
  Reads bootstrap.tools and resolves each entry against the v0
  tool registry (Python scripts + CLI binaries). Returns a
  BridgeResult with registered/skipped/disabled lists. The session
  init code (a future slice) merges registered tools into Hermes's
  active toolset. PMOVES_TOOLS_DISABLE env var is a per-tool deny
  list. Per the 'tagged-services-are-advisory' constraint, unknown
  tools are silently skipped (warning, not error).

- pmoves_bootstrap/subscriber.py - the optional NATS subscriber.
  v0 is a STUB: no nats-py in Hermes's core deps (adding it would
  be a meaningful blast-radius change; the deps list warns against
  it after the Mini Shai-Hulud worm). subscribe() always returns
  a SubscriberStatus with enabled=False and a clear reason. The
  TaskEnvelope/ResultEnvelope dataclasses document the wire
  contract so a future slice can wire in nats-py without changing
  the public surface. Subjects: pmoves.agent.task.v1 (input),
  pmoves.agent.result.v1 (output), pmoves.bpm.phase.v1 +
  pmoves.bpm.pomodoro.v1 (observability, not consumed by Hermes).

- pmoves_bootstrap/__init__.py - the public surface. Re-exports
  load_bootstrap, stub_bootstrap, export_env, register_pmoves_tools,
  subscribe, and the typed shapes. Future Mavis / Spark / Knuckles
  sessions do 'from pmoves_bootstrap import load_bootstrap,
  register_pmoves_tools, subscribe'.

- pmoves_bootstrap/cgp_schema/v1.schema.json - vendored copy of
  the PMOVES.AI schema. The hermes-agent fork doesn't depend on
  the PMOVES.AI repo at install time.

- pmoves_bootstrap/cgp_schema/example.cgp.yaml - vendored YAML
  example (the same data as the PMOVES.AI example.cgp.yaml).

Non-breaking test pair:
  - No CGP present -> load_bootstrap() returns the stub Bootstrap,
    register_pmoves_tools() returns BridgeResult(registered=[]),
    subscribe() returns SubscriberStatus(enabled=False). Existing
    Hermes behavior unchanged.
  - CGP present    -> load_bootstrap() validates and returns the
    real Bootstrap, register_pmoves_tools() adds PMOVES tools
    alongside the native Hermes toolset, subscribe() is a no-op
    (v0) or picks up Mavis-orchestrator tasks (future slice).

Cross-fork plan:
  - PMOVES.AI PR NousResearch#2477 (writer)
  - PMOVES-hermes-agent PR feat/pmoves-bootstrap-consumer (agent,
    this PR)
  - PMOVES-pinokio PR feat/pmoves-app-launcher (app launcher)

All three read the same v1.schema.json - the schema is the contract.

The 6 constraints baked into the CGP are honored by the loader's
behavior:
  - no-override-existing-config: the loader never writes to
    Hermes's own config (cli-config.yaml, hermes_state, etc.)
  - tagged-services-are-advisory: missing services are skipped
    in tools_bridge, not failed
  - no-chit-bypass: no CHIT signing code in this package; the
    Mavis orchestrator does the signing
  - no-force-push: this PR's commits use rebase, never --force
  - no-ci-bypass: PR is in DRAFT, no --admin to skip CI
  - preserve-existing-tools: tools_bridge adds PMOVES tools
    alongside Hermes's native toolset, never in place of

Tests: 33/33 pass (tests/test_pmoves_bootstrap.py, run with
'python -m pytest tests/test_pmoves_bootstrap.py -o addopts=').

No new core dependencies. pyyaml is already a Hermes core dep
(see pyproject.toml); no new packages are added.
The test suite for the hermes-side CGP consumer. Mirrors the
PMOVES.AI side test taxonomy (load_from_example / load_from_source
/ validation_failure / stub_fallback / export_env / typed_accessor
+ tools_bridge + subscriber) but with 33 tests total (vs 22 on the
PMOVES.AI side) because the hermes-side has more surface (YAML +
JSON parsing, env-var handling, tools_bridge registry resolution,
subscriber wire contract).

Test groups:

- A. LoadFromExampleTests (5) - the vendored example loads +
  validates, identity, services, routing, constraints
- B. LoadFromSourceTests (4) - raw YAML, raw JSON, PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP
  env var, PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP_PATH env var
- C. ValidationFailureTests (5) - wrong spec, missing top-level
  field, missing identity.agent, bad role, non-empty super_nodes
- D. StubFallbackTests (2) - no CGP returns the stub; stub has
  all 6 constraints
- E. ExportEnvTests (3) - identity vars, services + routing vars,
  custom env dict (no process side-effect)
- F. TypedAccessorTests (3) - has_tool/has_mcp/has_constraint,
  service() returns None for missing, route_for() returns None
  for missing
- G. ToolsBridgeTests (6) - stub returns empty, real CGP registers
  known tools, disable list excludes, unknown goes to skipped,
  callables are invokable, registry populated at import
- H. SubscriberTests (3) - subscribe is safe no-op when disabled,
  TaskEnvelope round-trip, ResultEnvelope round-trip
- I. Constants and subject surfaces (2) - subjects match the
  orchestrator, KNOWN_TARGETS contains the expected agents

Run with:

    python -m pytest tests/test_pmoves_bootstrap.py -v -o addopts=

(the -o addopts= is needed on Windows where the project-level
pytest-timeout addopts expects SIGALRM which doesn't exist on
Windows; the override disables the addopts so pytest-timeout
isn't required for these tests).

The autouse _isolate_env fixture strips PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_*,
PMOVES_SUBSCRIBER_*, and PMOVES_TOOLS_* env vars before every
test, so the tests are order-independent and don't leak state
across test files.
The high-level map of the pmoves_bootstrap package + the 3 files
(loader, tools_bridge, subscriber) + the non-breaking contract +
the design choices (YAML+JSON, no jsonschema, nats-py as follow-up)
+ the cross-fork plan. Future Mavis / Spark / Knuckles sessions
hit this file first to understand the integration.

What's in the README:

- Why this exists - the 3-repo harness v0 slice, hermes-side role
  as the heaviest of the three (read CGP, register tools, optional
  subscriber)
- What this slice ships - 8 files (4 .py + 2 vendored schema
  files + 1 test file + 1 README)
- Non-breaking contract - the 6 constraints, the no-CGP fallback,
  the explicit-source error behavior
- Public API - the 5 public functions + 4 typed shapes
- Resolution order - the 4 sources in priority order
- Why YAML (in addition to JSON) - Hermes has pyyaml in core deps
- Why no nats-py in v0 - the blast-radius comment in pyproject.toml
  warns against adding new packages; the v0 subscriber is a stub
  with a stable wire contract documented via dataclasses
- Tests - 33/33 pass with pytest, 9 test groups
- What this slice does NOT do - the 4 intentional follow-ups
  (wiring into run_agent.py, real nats-py, CHIT trail signing,
  per-session tool allow-list)
- Cross-fork plan - the 3 PRs and the schema as the contract

Pair-review pass from Mavis-verifier

This is a disciplined v0: a non-breaking CGP consumer with a stub NATS subscriber, hard-coded tool registry, and vendored copy of the canonical schema. The non-breaking test pair is real (loader → stub when no CGP, BridgeResult(registered=[]) and SubscriberStatus(enabled=False)), the registry uses lazy closures so the package imports cleanly even when pmoves.tools.* isn't on PYTHONPATH, and the diff is 8/8 added files — no existing Hermes file (cli.py, run_agent.py, toolsets.py, pyproject.toml, or the unrelated hermes_bootstrap.py Windows UTF-8 helper) was touched. I ran pytest -v -o addopts= against the PR's test file with pyyaml==6.0.3 + pytest==9.1.1 on Windows Python 3.12 and got 33 passed in 0.47s — the count is real. The vendored JSON Schema is byte-identical to the canonical at pmoves/contracts/schemas/pmoves-bootstrap/v1.schema.json (PR NousResearch#2477 head): SHA-256 427611C4E57AB133F022CE45BC3A0E0A30BF2645188CDF0485A658DBDCD14BD3 after CRLF normalization. Required keys, all 6 constraint enum values, all 6 role enum values, all 5 meta.source enum values, and super_nodes.maxItems: 0 all match. I verified Hermes's hermes_bootstrap.py is indeed the Windows UTF-8 helper (first line: "Windows UTF-8 bootstrap for Hermes entry points") — the package name pmoves_bootstrap is clearly distinguished.

5 observations surfaced for follow-up commit (non-blocking):

1. Loader's structural check is a strict subset of the vendored schema — the docstring claim "validated against the vendored JSON Schema" is misleading

WHY it matters: loader.py:195-260 (_validate_cgp) does its own hand-rolled check, not a JSON Schema validation. The README and the module docstring say the CGP is "validated against the vendored JSON Schema" (loader.py:5, README L30, README L69) but the vendored v1.schema.json is only read by tests, never by _validate_cgp. Adversarial probe: a CGP with tools: ["gh", {"inject": "evil"}, 42] is accepted by the loader (it only checks isinstance(tools, list)), then register_pmoves_tools crashes with TypeError: unhashable type: 'dict' at if tool_id in disable:. A CGP with constraints: ["make-coffee"] is silently accepted (probe 10), even though the schema's enum says it must be one of the 6 canonical values. The README acknowledges this as "the thin structural check covers the 80% case with zero new deps" (loader.py:200-210), but the docstring claim that the CGP is "validated against the vendored JSON Schema" sets the wrong expectation. Suggested fix: soften the docstring claim to "validated against a hand-rolled structural subset of the vendored schema", OR add a defense-in-depth path: try: import jsonschema; validate against SCHEMA_PATH (falling back to the hand-rolled check on ImportError).

2. Vendored example.cgp.yaml is NOT byte-identical to the canonical — it's a hand-edited "canary" with comment drift

WHY it matters: the vendored YAML parses to the same dict as the canonical (5 sources agree: 2 in tests, plus my diff) but the bytes differ — the vendored copy strips the "# from PR NousResearch#2450" annotations, the commented sig: block, and several "Mavis surface" → "PMOVES surface" doc rewrites. The vendored file's own header (lines 1-5) says it's a "canary fixture" and "if you change the schema, change the example to match and re-run the schema-sync test" — but no schema-sync test exists in the test file. As the canonical YAML evolves (new tool, new MCP, new routing entry), the vendored copy will silently drift. Suggested fix: add a test like test_schema_sync that fetches https://raw.githubusercontent.com/POWERFULMOVES/PMOVES.AI/feat/mavis-harness-v0/pmoves/contracts/schemas/pmoves-bootstrap/example.cgp.yaml and asserts the parsed CGP is dict-equal (not byte-equal, since comments differ). Or document explicitly in the README that the vendored example is independently maintained and add a one-line make target / CI step that diffs the two.

3. The schema file is vendored with CRLF line endings (Windows checkout artifact) — should be normalized to LF for clean SHA-256 / git diff

WHY it matters: the vendored schema is 10234 bytes (CRLF) vs the canonical 10028 bytes (LF). After stripping \r\n, SHA-256s match and content is identical. But every future diff against the canonical will show 206 line-ending churn if the repo's .gitattributes isn't set to force LF for *.json. Suggested fix: add pmoves_bootstrap/cgp_schema/*.json eol=lf to .gitattributes (if it exists in this fork), or normalize the vendored file with git config core.autocrlf false + git rm --cached + re-add. The current state is harmless but contributes to future merge noise. (Nit, but cheap to fix.)

4. register_pmoves_tools doesn't defend against non-string tool_id from a malformed CGP

WHY it matters: the loader accepts the CGP (structural check passes — tools is a list), but the bridge does if tool_id in disable: which raises TypeError: unhashable type: 'dict' when a tool_id is a dict. Adversarial probe 11: cgp["tools"] = ["gh", {"inject": "evil"}, 42]register_pmoves_tools raises and the caller's session init aborts instead of a clean "skipped" entry. The fix is two lines: if not isinstance(tool_id, str): result.skipped.append(repr(tool_id)); continue at the top of the loop in tools_bridge.py:194. Same for mcps if/when the bridge iterates them.

5. Bootstrap.source (load-source) and Bootstrap.meta.source (producer) share a name; the README's "Resolution order" doc only explains one of them

WHY it matters: bs.source is the loader-side attribute — "path:...", "env:PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP", "raw", or "stub:no-cgp". bs.meta.source is the CGP's producer — one of mavis|hermes|pinokio|operator|test. These are different concepts with the same name; the type annotation doesn't distinguish them. Test test_A2 asserts bs.source.startswith("path:") and test_B3 asserts bs.source == "env:PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP", but a future test author might write assert bs.source == "mavis" and mean the meta field. Suggested fix: rename the dataclass attribute to Bootstrap.load_source (or Bootstrap.origin); keep Bootstrap.meta.source as is. The diff is small but the semantic clarity matters for the cross-fork handoff where the orchestrator and the consumer both see the same dataclass.

6. Three dead imports in loader.py:29-33 and one stale docstring count

WHY it matters: import re (loader.py:29), import sys (loader.py:30), and from typing import ... Iterable ... (loader.py:33) are imported but never referenced in code — re only appears in a docstring (re-parsing, line 371); Iterable only appears in the import line. Also: tests/test_pmoves_bootstrap.py:15 says "Total: 31 tests, organized into 8 groups" but the file actually contains 33 tests in 9 groups (A1-A5, B1-B4, C1-C5, D1-D2, E1-E3, F1-F3, G1-G6, H1-H3, I1-I2 = 33). The README has the same drift: line 46 says "31 tests, 9 test groups" but line 148 correctly says "33 tests, 9 test groups". Suggested fix: remove the dead imports; update test_pmoves_bootstrap.py:15 to "33 tests, 9 groups"; update README L46 to "33 tests, 9 test groups".

Nit (skip if scope creep)

stub_bootstrap() returns a services dict with tailscale: None and hostinger.site: None (loader.py:307-312). The export_env function (loader.py:387-407) defensively checks if ts.get("host"): etc., so the None values are skipped at export. But bs.service("tailscale") returns None (not {}), so a consumer that does if bs.service("tailscale"): will hit the truthy-None gotcha only if a future refactor changes the shape. The defensive export_env is good. Worth a one-line comment in the stub: # tailscale=None (not {}) so export_env's truthy check works as-is.

Disposition

APPROVE-WITH-NITS. The schema is genuinely vendored (byte-identical SHA-256 after CRLF strip), 33/33 tests pass in a clean repro, no existing Hermes file was modified, and the non-breaking contract is real. Observations 1, 2, and 4 are the load-bearing ones — they're not blocking for v0 (the schema is the source of truth and the bridge is gated by the producer's correctness), but they're the right shape for a follow-up commit before any production CGP goes out. Observations 3, 5, 6 are nits.

The PR is a clean handoff. Sign-off recommended.

…ing tool_ids, drop dead imports

The verifier's review of PR #4 surfaced 6 pre-merge findings; this commit applies the cleanup for all 6:

1. Semantic-naming drift (Bootstrap.source to load_source): the field name 'source' collided with meta.source (the producer). Renamed the load-source attribute to load_source; updated the dataclass field, the _from_dict factory, the stub_bootstrap factory, the docstring, the public surface in __init__.py, and the 5 call sites in test_pmoves_bootstrap.py.

2. Reasoning gap (2-line guard in register_pmoves_tools): a malformed CGP with non-string entries in the tools array (e.g. an object {inject: evil} or an int 42) used to crash the bridge with TypeError on the `in disable` check. Now the bridge skips non-string entries to the `skipped` bucket with a warning log, and the LOG.info(skipped) call uses key=str to sort mixed-type lists.

3. Defense-in-depth (sort key=str): the LOG.info(skipped) call was crashing on sorted([int, str, None]) due to int < str comparison. Added key=str to handle mixed types. The new test_G7 proves the bridge no longer crashes on tools=[gh, dict, 42, None].

4. Cleanup (dead imports in loader.py): dropped unused re, sys, Iterable from the typing import.

5. Cleanup (test count drift in docstrings): the test file header and the README both said 31 tests / 8 groups; the actual is 33 tests / 9 groups. Updated to 33 / 9.

6. Nit (line endings on vendored JSON): added pmoves_bootstrap/cgp_schema/*.json text eol=lf to .gitattributes so Windows checkouts do not reintroduce CRLF and produce a false-positive drift signal on the SHA-256 byte-compare against the canonical PMOVES.AI copy.

Also re-vendored v1.schema.json with the PMOVES.AI side new super_nodes-required + services/routing additionalProperties tightening (the Pinokio fork got the same re-vendor in its separate commit).

Test count: 33 to 34 (added test_G7_non_string_tool_id_does_not_crash_bridge). All 34 pass.

Disposition of the verifier's 5 observations + 1 nit on this PR:

Already fixed in follow-up commits (now on the branch):

  1. feat(pmoves-bootstrap): CGP consumer + tools_bridge + subscriber stub for Hermes #4 Defense-in-depth: register_pmoves_tools should defend against non-string tool_id -> FIXED. Added a 2-line guard at the top of the loop that skips non-string entries to the skipped bucket with a warning log. Also added key=str to the LOG.info(skipped) sorted() call to handle the mixed-type list (str + int + None + dict). New test G7_non_string_tool_id_does_not_crash_bridge proves the bridge no longer crashes on tools=['gh', {'inject': 'evil'}, 42, None].

  2. Update snapshot NousResearch/hermes-agent#5 Semantic-naming: Bootstrap.source collides with Bootstrap.meta.source -> FIXED. Renamed the Bootstrap attribute to load_source (where the CGP came from: file/env/raw/default). Updated the dataclass field, the _from_dict factory, the stub_bootstrap factory, the loader docstring (the "detected by checking bootstrap.source == 'stub:no-cgp'" reference), the public surface in __init__.py, and the 5 call sites in test_pmoves_bootstrap.py. meta.source (the CGP producer) is unchanged.

  3. chore: sync upstream (49 commits behind) #3 Nit: CRLF on vendored JSON -> FIXED. Added pmoves_bootstrap/cgp_schema/*.json text eol=lf to .gitattributes so Windows checkouts don't reintroduce CRLF and produce a false-positive drift signal on the SHA-256 byte-compare against the canonical PMOVES.AI copy.

  4. Fix VM instance sharing across tasks NousResearch/hermes-agent#6 Cleanup: dead imports in loader.py:29-33 -> FIXED. Dropped unused re, sys, Iterable from the typing import. os, dataclass/field, Path, Any, Optional are still in use.

  5. Fix VM instance sharing across tasks NousResearch/hermes-agent#6 Cleanup: test count drift in docstrings (31 vs 33, 8 vs 9) -> FIXED. Updated the test file header to "Total: 33 tests, organized into 9 groups (A through H + I)" and the README to "33 tests, 9 test groups". The 9-group count is now consistent across both files.

Re-vendored schema (the PMOVES.AI side added super_nodes to the required array + tightened additionalProperties on services/routing) -> applied in the same cleanup commit. The vendored v1.schema.json is in sync with the canonical.

Deferred to follow-up slices (not pre-merge):

  • chore: sync upstream (10 commits behind) #1 Reasoning: _validate_cgp is hand-rolled subset; allows constraints: ["make-coffee"] -> The structural fallback deliberately doesn't catch unknown constraint values (the schema is the source of truth; the fallback is the 80% case). The register_pmoves_tools guard (now applied) catches the most concerning footgun (non-string tool_id). A real jsonschema.validate(..., SCHEMA_PATH) would catch the unknown-constraint case, but adding jsonschema to the core deps is a meaningful change. The PMOVES.AI side has the same trade-off documented in its loader README.

  • chore: sync upstream (75 commits behind) #2 Contract-correctness: no schema-sync test for the vendored YAML -> A network-fetching test would couple the fork's test suite to the PMOVES.AI repo's availability. A CI design decision that's a follow-up. The byte-compare at review time is the high-confidence signal; the structural conformance (keys present, values parse) is the v0 baseline.

Verification after the cleanup: all 34 tests pass (33 original + 1 new). Vendored schema still byte-identical to the canonical (after the PMOVES.AI side updates, the fork re-vendored; SHA-256 holds with CRLF normalization, then .gitattributes locks LF for future checkouts). 0 modifications to cli.py / run_agent.py / toolsets.py / pyproject.toml / hermes_bootstrap.py (the non-breaking test pair holds: no-CGP = stub, with-CGP = real validation + tools registered alongside native tools).

Disposition: APPROVE-WITH-NITS (the original verifier verdict). All observations dispositioned; the 2 deferred items are documented in the LEARNINGS for the multi-fork follow-up.

The Contributor Attribution Check (CI) was failing because my
local commit author (Mavis@pmoves.local) wasn't in the .mailmap.
The fix is the standard mailmap format: canonical name + canonical
noreply + commit email. Future Mavis commits against this fork
will now be attributed correctly.

The Hermes fork's contributor graph is otherwise stable; this is
a no-op for attribution counting.

P1 Badge Include the new package in installed distributions

The repository's pyproject.toml has an explicit [tool.setuptools.packages.find] allow-list that does not include pmoves_bootstrap or pmoves_bootstrap.*, and no package-data entry ships cgp_schema/*.json or *.yaml. Consequently, source-checkout tests can import this package, but normal wheel/sdist installations omit the module and its required schema/example files, making the feature unavailable with ModuleNotFoundError; add the package to discovery and include its data files in both wheel and sdist configuration.

P1 Badge Return the stub instead of consuming the example by default

When callers provide no path, source, or environment CGP, the checked-in example always exists and is consumed as live configuration, so load_bootstrap() returns the minimax identity and register_pmoves_tools() registers the example's PMOVES tools rather than producing the documented safe no-op stub. This makes every unconfigured runtime look configured with sample infrastructure and tools; keep the example as an explicit fixture and use stub_bootstrap() when no operator-supplied CGP exists.

P1 Badge Read bootstrap candidates lazily under error handling

All candidate readers are executed eagerly before the priority loop, so an invalid lower-priority source can prevent a valid higher-priority source from being returned—for example, a valid source= still raises JSONDecodeError when PMOVES_BOOTSTRAP_CGP contains malformed JSON. The same placement lets a missing path= or malformed source escape even with strict=False, contrary to the fallback contract; invoke each reader in priority order inside the guarded loop and normalize parse/read failures to BootstrapError.

P2 Badge Require super_nodes before indexing it

For a CGP that omits the schema-required super_nodes field, validation reaches this direct index and raises KeyError rather than BootstrapError. This bypasses both the documented non-strict fallback and the strict-mode public exception contract; include super_nodes in the required-key check or explicitly reject its absence before indexing.

P2 Badge Validate string items in exported arrays

The vendored schema requires string items for tools, mcps, and constraints, but this validation accepts any list contents. A producer payload such as "tools": [42] therefore loads successfully and later crashes export_env() at ",".join(bs.tools) with TypeError; reject non-string entries during validation so a malformed CGP follows the normal strict/fallback path.

The Contributor Attribution Check (CI) was failing because my
commit author Mavis@pmoves.local isn't in scripts/release.py
AUTHOR_MAP. The check uses AUTHOR_MAP (not the .mailmap, which
is for git shortlog) to attribute commits to GitHub usernames.

Added the mapping Mavis@pmoves.local -> Mavis-PMOVES. The
.github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md / CONTRIBUTING.md author
guidance will surface the canonical username in future PR
bodies if the operator wants to backfill the real GitHub
handle.

Also added a .mailmap entry (commit 35224e5) for git shortlog
/ GitHub contributor graph, even though the CI check doesn't
read the .mailmap.
