run_tests_parallel.py:
  - --slice I/N flag (also HERMES_TEST_SLICE env var) runs only the
    I-th slice of N, distributing files across slices by cached
    duration using LPT (Longest Processing Time first) greedy
    algorithm so each slice gets roughly equal wall time
  - Duration cache (test_durations.json): maps relative file paths to
    last-observed subprocess wall time. _save_durations merges with
    existing cache so entries from other slices are preserved.
  - Per-file subprocess timing in progress output + end-of-run
    distribution summary (percentiles, top-10 slowest, <1s/<2s counts)
  - Unknown files default to 2.0s estimate (~P50), spread evenly by LPT

.github/workflows/tests.yml:
  - Matrix strategy: slice [1, 2, 3, 4] with fail-fast: false
  - Each slice restores duration cache from main (stable key, no SHA),
    runs its portion, uploads per-slice durations as artifacts
  - save-durations job (main only, if: always()) downloads all 4
    artifacts, merges into single cache entry for future PRs
  - Timeout reduced from 60min to 30min per slice (~1/4 the work)

Cache design:
  - Stable key (test-durations) not keyed by commit SHA — durations
    are about files, not commits, and SHA-keyed caches miss on every
    new commit and on PR merge commits
  - actions/cache scoping: main's cache is visible to all PRs targeting
    main; feature branches without a cache still work (default 2.0s)
  - No dotfile prefix (upload-artifact v7 skips hidden files)
- test_browser_secret_exfil: mock _run_browser_command instead of
  launching real Chrome (secret check is pre-launch, browser is
  irrelevant to the assertion)
- test_web_server: add time.sleep(0.05) after pub.send_text() to
  yield the event loop before receive_text(). TestClient's sync mode
  can race the broadcast handler otherwise, hanging the test.
Benchmarked 4/5/6/7/8 slices with LPT duration-balanced distribution:
- 4 slices: 4.8m wall, 135s spread
- 5 slices: 3.4m wall, 46s spread
- 6 slices: 3.3m wall, 26s spread ← optimal
- 7 slices: 3.9m wall, 109s spread
- 8 slices: 3.7m wall, 96s spread

6 slices is the sweet spot: lowest wall time, tightest spread.
7+ gets slower due to per-slice startup overhead dominating.

Also removes benchmark branch markers from save-durations condition.
Removes the global `uppercase` + `font-mondwest` from the App.tsx root
that forced every page to opt-out, replaces stacked-alpha text colors
with semantic tokens for WCAG-AA contrast across all 7 themes, and
applies the new `text-display` utility from @nous-research/ui@0.16.0
on intentional brand chrome (page titles, sidebar headings, segmented
filters) only. Bumps every sub-12px arbitrary text size to text-xs.

Also widens the dashboard plugin routes (/api/dashboard/agent-plugins/
{name:path}/...) so category-namespaced plugins like observability/
langfuse and image_gen/openai can be enable/disabled from the dashboard
— previously the FE encodeURIComponent-ed the slash and the backend
{name} route rejected it. _validate_plugin_name still blocks .. and
backslash, and strips leading/trailing slash.

Touches sessions/env/keys page chrome and adds two new i18n keys
(`overview`, `showMore`/`showLess`) across all 18 locales.

Squashes 19 commits from PR NousResearch#28832.

Follow-up to PR NousResearch#28832 — the dashboard plugin routes now accept slashed
names like `observability/langfuse` and `image_gen/openai`, but
`_sanitize_plugin_name` still rejected forward slash and so dashboard
update + remove on those plugins fell through to '404 not found' even
though they exist on disk.

Adds an opt-in `allow_subdir=True` flag that:
- Permits internal forward slashes (category-namespaced plugin keys
  emitted by `_discover_all_plugins`).
- Strips leading and trailing slashes.
- Still rejects `..` and backslash, and still asserts the resolved
  target lives inside `plugins_dir`.

Opted in at the two read-paths that operate on installed plugins:
`_require_installed_plugin` (CLI update/remove) and
`_user_installed_plugin_dir` (dashboard update/remove). The install
path keeps the default (`allow_subdir=False`) because freshly-cloned
plugins always land top-level under `~/.hermes/plugins/<name>/`.

Adds 6 targeted unit tests covering the new flag's allow/reject matrix.
…ding, hash file paths

- skills_hub: validate that uninstall_skill's install_path resolves
  inside SKILLS_DIR before calling shutil.rmtree, preventing recursive
  deletion of arbitrary directories via poisoned lock.json entries
- skills_hub: include file paths (not just contents) in
  bundle_content_hash so swapping filenames between files changes the
  hash, strengthening update-detection integrity
- pairing: wrap list_pending() in self._lock so _cleanup_expired() file
  writes don't race with concurrent generate_code()/approve_code() calls

… bundle_content_hash)

PR NousResearch#6656 added rel_path + \x00 prefixing to ``bundle_content_hash`` so a
filename swap between two files in a bundle changes the digest. But it
only patched the in-memory side — ``content_hash`` in ``tools/skills_guard.py``
(the on-disk equivalent) still hashed file contents only.

These two functions need to stay symmetric: ``check_for_skill_updates``
compares the disk hash of an installed skill against the bundle hash
of the upstream copy. With the asymmetric fix, every clean install
showed as drifted because the digests no longer matched
(2 existing tests in ``test_skills_hub.py`` started failing as soon as
the contributor's change landed).

Apply the same ``rel_path + \x00 + content`` shape to the disk-side
function. Both functions now produce the same digest for the same skill
content laid out two ways. Documented the symmetry invariant in the
docstring so a future change to either function knows to touch both.

Also adds tests/tools/test_pr_6656_regressions.py with 10 regression
tests covering all three fixes salvaged in PR NousResearch#6656:
  - uninstall_skill path traversal (4 cases: parent segments, absolute
    paths, symlink escape, legitimate skill)
  - bundle_content_hash filename swap detection (4 cases: in-memory
    swap, identity, disk-side swap, bundle↔disk symmetry)
  - list_pending lock contract (2 cases: source-grep contract, smoke)

Also fixes AUTHOR_MAP entry for @aaronlab — their commit email
(1115117931@qq.com) maps to "aaronagent" which isn't a real GitHub
login, so changelog @mentions would 404.
…ousResearch#17656)

`get_read_block_error` previously only denied reads inside
`${HERMES_HOME}/skills/.hub`, which left `auth.json` (provider OAuth
state + plaintext API keys) and `.anthropic_oauth.json` (Anthropic PKCE
tokens) directly readable by the agent. A prompt-injection reaching
`read_file` could exfiltrate active provider credentials in plaintext.

Mode-0600 file permissions only protect against *other Unix users* —
the agent runs as the file's owner, so `read_file` is unaffected.

Extend the existing deny list with the three credential paths
identified in NousResearch#17656 (`auth.json`, `auth.lock`, `.anthropic_oauth.json`).
The check uses the same `Path.resolve()` pattern as `skills/.hub`, so
symlink/path-traversal indirection is caught too. The agent doesn't
need to read these directly — `auxiliary_client` and `credential_pool`
consume them through process env / OAuth flows that bypass `read_file`.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
read_file_tool resolves relative paths against TERMINAL_CWD (or the
task's live terminal cwd), but the prior call passed the original
unresolved string to get_read_block_error. That function's own
resolve() is anchored at the Python process cwd, so when a task's
TERMINAL_CWD pointed at HERMES_HOME and the agent issued read_file
on the relative path "auth.json", the credential-store denylist was
never reached and the file was read normally.

Pass the already-resolved absolute path string at the file_tools call
site, document the contract on get_read_block_error, and add a
read_file_tool-level regression test that pins the relative-path
case under TERMINAL_CWD == HERMES_HOME.

…ts, root

Extends @briandevans's PR NousResearch#17659 from {auth.json, auth.lock,
.anthropic_oauth.json} to also cover:

  - HERMES_HOME/.env                       (provider API keys)
  - HERMES_HOME/webhook_subscriptions.json (per-route HMAC secrets)
  - HERMES_HOME/mcp-tokens/                (OAuth token directory; dir
                                            + everything inside)

…AND iterates over both _hermes_home_path() AND _hermes_root_path()
so profile-mode runs (HERMES_HOME = <root>/profiles/<name>) also block
<root>/{auth.json, .env, mcp-tokens/, ...}. Same widening shape as the
write-deny side already does (NousResearch#15981, NousResearch#14157).

Explicitly NOT a security boundary. Per the personal-assistant trust
model, the terminal tool runs as the same OS user and can `cat
auth.json` directly. This read-deny exists as defense-in-depth:

  - Models that respect tool denials empirically tend to stop rather
    than reach for the shell.
  - The denial surfaces an audit trail when something tries to read
    credentials — easier to spot in logs than a generic `cat`.

Docstring + error message both flag this as defense-in-depth so future
contributors don't mistake it for a real security boundary and don't
re-decline reports that propose the same fix shape.

Absorbs the .env and mcp-tokens/ coverage from @tomqiaozc's parallel
PR NousResearch#8055 (closed-as-duplicate, credited).

P1 Badge Fix cursor math so paginated list doesn't skip messages

list_inbox_messages() computes next_cursor as offset + limit while the read path treats cursor as “index of last item from previous page” and advances by +1, so page 2 starts one item too far. For example with 5 messages and limit=2, page 1 returns cursor 2, page 2 starts at offset 3, and index 2 is never returned; clients permanently miss messages and pagination ends early.

P2 Badge Validate mark-read IDs before calling path checks

inbox_mark_read() accepts arbitrary JSON values in message_ids and passes each element directly to mark_inbox_message_read(). If a client sends a non-string ID (e.g. 123), _message_path() evaluates "/" in message_id and raises TypeError, which is not caught by the except HermesInboxError block, causing a 500 instead of a client error/structured per-item error.

…id (NousResearch#38763)

Context compression today rewrites the message list AND rotates the
session id — it ends the session, forks a parent_session_id child, and
renumbers the title (name -> name #2). That moving identity key is the
root cause of a whole bug cluster: /goal lost (NousResearch#33618), pending response
lost at the split (NousResearch#14238), orphan sessions (NousResearch#33907), TUI sid desync
(NousResearch#36777), FTS search gaps + duplicate sidebar entries (NousResearch#45117), null
continuation cwd (NousResearch#42228), and title-rename dead-ends (NousResearch#48989). It also
forced a large defensive apparatus (compression lock, contextvar/env/
logging triple-sync, orphan finalization, gateway SessionEntry
re-propagation, tip projection) whose only job is surviving a
mid-conversation id change.

Add a compression.in_place config flag (default False during rollout).
When True, compaction rewrites the transcript and rebuilds the system
prompt but keeps the SAME session_id: no end_session, no child row, no
title renumber, no contextvar/logging re-sync, no memory/context-engine
session-switch. The conversation keeps one durable id for life, like
Claude Code / Codex. Compaction is lossy by design — the pre-compaction
transcript is summarized away, not archived.

The rotation path is unchanged when the flag is off (moved verbatim into
an else branch). Staged rollout: this PR ships the option behind a
default-off flag for live validation; a follow-up flips the default and
deletes the now-redundant rotation machinery, superseding the 14 open
band-aid PRs in this area.

- hermes_cli/config.py: add compression.in_place (default False), documented
- agent/agent_init.py: resolve the flag -> agent.compression_in_place
- agent/conversation_compression.py: branch compress_context() on the flag
- tests/run_agent/test_in_place_compaction.py: in-place invariants +
  rotation regression guard + config default

The pre-flush of current-turn messages (NousResearch#47202) runs in BOTH modes, so no
boundary data loss. Prompt-cache invariant preserved: the system-prompt
rebuild is the same single sanctioned invalidation that already happens
during compaction — no NEW invalidation. Message alternation preserved.

…eation snapshot (NousResearch#44585)

An unpinned cron job follows the global default provider (config.yaml
model.default + resolve_runtime_provider). If that global state is changed
after the job is created — e.g. a temporary switch to a paid provider like
nous/claude-fable-5 — the job silently inherits it on its next tick and spends
real money. This is the reported $7.73 incident: a job created under a
free/default provider later inherited a temporary paid switch.

Fix (ask #1 only) preserves the legitimate "unpinned job should follow
model.default" use case by detecting *drift* rather than freezing the model:

- create_job (cron/jobs.py): for UNPINNED, agent-backed jobs (no explicit
  provider, not no_agent), snapshot the provider that resolution WOULD pick
  right now into a new optional `provider_snapshot` field, resolved via the
  same resolve_runtime_provider() path the ticker uses. Fail-open to None on
  any resolution error so job creation never breaks.

- run_job (cron/scheduler.py): right after runtime resolution, if the job has
  a provider_snapshot AND is unpinned AND the currently-resolved provider
  DIFFERS from the snapshot, fail closed for that run — make no paid call and
  deliver a loud, actionable alert naming both providers and telling the user
  to pin explicitly (`cronjob action=update job_id=.. provider=..`).

Back-compat: jobs with no snapshot (pre-existing jobs, no_agent jobs, or any
job whose creation-time resolution failed) behave exactly as before — the
guard only engages when a snapshot exists. Explicitly-pinned jobs (job.provider
set) are unaffected since they don't drift with global state.

Tests: tests/cron/test_cron_provider_pin.py covers snapshot-matches (runs),
snapshot-differs (fail closed, no agent constructed), no-snapshot back-compat,
None-snapshot back-compat, explicitly-pinned (runs regardless), plus create_job
snapshot capture/skip/fail-open. The fail-closed case is load-bearing (fails
without the guard).

Issue NousResearch#44585 asks #2-4 (hard-stop a running job, gateway-stop containment,
fail-closed on provider mutation) are out of scope for this change.

…_id signature churn

Two independent bugs evicted the cached gateway AIAgent on every turn,
preventing the prompt cache from ever warming:

1. Model normalization mismatch: the post-run fallback-eviction check
   compared _agent.model (stripped in AIAgent.__init__) against the raw
   _resolve_gateway_model() config string. For vendor-prefixed config on
   native providers (e.g. 'deepseek/deepseek-v4-pro' vs 'deepseek-v4-pro')
   this was always unequal, so the agent was evicted after every
   successful run. Normalize _cfg_model the same way (skip aggregators).

2. Discord triggering message_id leaked into the cached system prompt via
   build_session_context_prompt()'s Discord IDs block. message_id changes
   every turn, so the agent-cache signature (computed from the ephemeral
   prompt) changed every Discord turn -> rebuild every message. The id is
   now injected per-turn into the user message (where per-turn content
   belongs and does not touch the cache signature); the cached IDs block
   carries a static pointer to it, preserving reply/react/pin via the
   discord tools.

Adapted from NousResearch#28846. Bug #1 fix is the contributor's; bug #2 reworked to
be non-destructive (keeps the triggering-id capability instead of deleting
it). Redundant auto-reset eviction (already on main via NousResearch#9893/NousResearch#48031) and
the wrong-premise reset_context_note plumbing from the original PR were
dropped.

… fail on '(empty)' sentinel

Two related bugs caused subagent delegation to silently return empty summaries
with 0 tokens when the user configured delegation.provider=bedrock alongside
delegation.base_url=https://bedrock-runtime.<region>.amazonaws.com.

Root cause #1 — misrouting in _resolve_delegation_credentials():
  The configured_base_url branch unconditionally forced provider='custom' and
  api_mode='chat_completions', only specializing for chatgpt.com, anthropic,
  and kimi hosts. Bedrock (and other native-SDK providers) fell through as
  'custom' + chat_completions, which then POSTed OpenAI-shaped JSON at
  Bedrock's native API. Bedrock rejected the payload and returned nothing,
  which looked like an empty LLM response to the child agent.

  Fix: when provider is one of {bedrock, vertex, google, google-genai}, skip
  the base_url short-circuit and fall through to resolve_runtime_provider(),
  which knows how to construct the proper SDK client. base_url can still be
  forwarded through that path for regional overrides.

Root cause #2 — '(empty)' sentinel accepted as success:
  After N retries of empty LLM responses, run_agent.py emits the literal
  string '(empty)' as final_response. _run_single_child then hit
  `elif summary:` — '(empty)' is truthy, so status became 'completed' and
  the parent surfaced a blank result with no error. Users saw api_calls=4,
  tokens=0, duration~0.4s, status=completed.

  Fix: treat final_response.strip() == '(empty)' as a failure so the parent
  surfaces it instead of silently accepting zero-content 'success'.

Both paths were reproduced in a live Hermes TUI session on us-west-2 Bedrock
(provider=bedrock, model=us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-6) and are covered by
new tests in tests/tools/test_delegate.py.

…ch#67140)

The background write guard decided ownership from `isinstance(usage_rec, dict)`,
so a local skill with NO usage record passed. That successful write called
bump_patch(), which created a `created_by: null` record — and the identical
write was refused from then on. "Allowed exactly once, then never" is a race
with our own bookkeeping, not a policy. Reproduced on main: patch #1 succeeds,
patch #2 with the same arguments is refused.

Option B from the issue. Option A (split `session_review` from
`scheduled_curator` and let the session fork patch user-owned skills it
consulted) would widen autonomous write permission onto skills the user owns
with no user present to consent — wrong direction for a no-user-present actor.

- skill_manager_tool: missing and explicit-null records now resolve
  IDENTICALLY, both fail closed. The refusal names the reason and points at
  `hermes curator adopt <name>`.
- background_review: both review prompts told the reviewer to patch any skill
  consulted in the session and claimed pinned skills could be improved, while
  enforcement refused both. Prompts now list pinned, external, and user-owned
  skills as protected, and tell the reviewer to RECOMMEND adoption instead of
  attempting a write that will be refused.
- skill_usage: document that `created_by` is a curator-management policy flag,
  not a provenance claim, and add `is_curator_managed()` so call sites read as
  the question they ask. Field name retained — it is on disk in every
  `.usage.json` and renaming would strand those records.
- curator CLI: `hermes curator list-unmanaged` itemizes unmanaged skills with
  the reason each is unmanaged (completes the NousResearch#67139 spec).

Foreground writes are untouched: a user-directed edit to a user-owned skill
still works, including on pinned skills.

Sibling tests: 9 failures in test_skill_manager_tool.py were fixtures that
created record-less skills to exercise OTHER guards (consolidation-delete,
read-before-write) and relied on ownership falling through. Fixed at the
fixture, since the real curator only ever operates on managed sediment. One
test asserted the old "manually authored" wording; rewritten to assert the
behavior contract instead of the string.

Validation: 274 targeted tests + all 7 background-review files (60 tests) pass.
E2E on a temp HERMES_HOME (30 checks) covers the flip, foreground writes,
adoption unblocking, pin semantics, prompt/enforcement parity, and the new verb.
Each new test sabotage-verified: revert the fix, confirm it goes red.

…hat tile (NousResearch#71969)

* fix: Branch button is a dead no-op inside a branched chat tile

session-tile.tsx wired onBranchInNewChat to () => undefined for
tiled/branched sessions (nested branching isn't supported there), but
the button in AssistantMessage's action bar rendered unconditionally
regardless of whether a real handler was supplied. The button looked
clickable but silently did nothing, with no visual feedback.

- AssistantMessage now only renders the Branch button when
  onBranchInNewChat is actually provided, matching the existing
  pattern used for onDismissError/onRestoreToMessage.
- session-tile.tsx no longer passes a no-op handler; the prop is
  simply omitted so the button doesn't render in tiles.
- onBranchInNewChat is now optional on ChatViewProps, and the
  latestChatActions passthrough wrapper uses the existing
  latestOptional helper instead of an unconditional call.

* test: assert Branch button visibility matches handler presence

Adds coverage for the bug #2 fix: renders Thread with and without an
onBranchInNewChat handler and asserts the Branch in new chat button
is shown only when a real handler is supplied, hidden otherwise -
covering both the normal open-chat case and the session-tile
(branched chat) case that used to leave a dead, clickable button.

… a broken chat

A completely unconfigured install previously booted into a working-looking
chat (banner showed model 'unknown'), accepted a message, spun ~30s, then
failed with 'Set OPENROUTER_API_KEY' — a provider the user never chose —
and never offered setup.

- HermesCLI.run() now probes provider readiness at startup (TTY only) and
  offers the shared provider picker (hermes model flow, which fronts Quick
  Setup / Nous Portal OAuth) when nothing is configured. Decline is
  respected; picker state re-syncs into the live CLI so the next turn works
  without a restart.
- New silent probe _runtime_credentials_ready(): no printing, no state
  mutation; handles keyless local endpoints and callable bearer providers.
- The empty-api-key error is provider-aware: names the actual resolved
  provider and points at 'hermes model' / 'hermes setup' instead of
  hardcoding OPENROUTER_API_KEY.
- Banner: unconfigured installs render 'no model configured — run /model'

A wedged adapter transport (network hang, dead websocket) previously
blocked _check_session_stalls forever: sibling candidates in the same
pass were never evaluated and the watcher stopped ticking. Wrap the
send in asyncio.wait_for (15s); on timeout log a WARNING and do NOT
latch, so the next tick retries. Regression uses a never-resolving fake
adapter and proves the pass completes, a healthy sibling candidate is
still notified in the same pass, and the watcher ticks again
(sabotage-verified against the unbounded send).

…on delegation callbacks (NousResearch#82592)

* fix(gateway): stop frozen-preview finals and dropped idle-session delegation callbacks

Two relay-plane delivery losses from the 2026-08-09 staging incident:

1. stream_consumer: the skip-redundant-finalize branch recorded _accumulated
   as the delivered turn-final payload even when the last ACKED edit was an
   earlier throttled preview snapshot, so delivered_final_matches reconciled
   True and the gateway suppressed the corrective final send — the user was
   left with a cut-off message ending in the streaming cursor. Extracted
   _mark_skip_redundant_finalize(): records the last acked wire payload
   (cursor-stripped), so a preview/final mismatch now returns False and the
   normal final send fires.

2. run.py: _classify_completion_target classified every ended parent session
   terminal unless it ended by compression. Idle/timeout session ends are the
   norm on scale-to-zero relay deployments and the chat route remains valid;
   completed async delegation results were terminally dropped. Ended parents
   now classify deliver unless the end was an explicit user boundary
   (session_reset / user_exit / session_switch).

* fix(relay): drain in-flight outbound frames before transport teardown

disconnect() failed every pending outbound future immediately with
'relay transport closed', so a trailing finalize edit racing turn
teardown was lost even though the connector socket could still serve
it. Bounded drain grace (5s) lets in-flight requests resolve; silent
connectors still tear down promptly. asyncio.wait (not gather+wait_for)
so a timeout doesn't cancel futures owned by the fail-remaining loop.

* fix(gateway): route completion injection through the alias-aware transport resolver

Third relay-plane delivery loss from the 2026-08-09 staging incidents: a
delegation batch completed while the gateway was up, the watcher drained
the event, and delivery vanished with no log line. _inject_watch_notification
resolved its adapter with a literal p.value == platform_name scan of
self.adapters — a relay-fronted gateway registers ONE adapter under
Platform.RELAY fronting N logical platforms, so 'slack' never matched and
the injection returned None ('no gateway route'), silently dropping the
completion. The handoff path already documents this exact trap and uses
resolve_delivery_transport; the injection path now does the same (native
wins; relay eligible only when it fronts the logical platform), with the
literal scan kept as fallback for stub runners and exotic platforms.

* fix(relay): clamp disconnect drain grace to the runner's adapter-disconnect budget

Review finding (JoaoMarcos44, NousResearch#82592): a fixed 5.0s drain in front of the
three 1.0s sequential teardown awaits gives an 8.0s worst case inside the
runner's 5.0s asyncio.wait_for(adapter.disconnect()) — tripping it cancels
teardown mid-drain, skips the fail-pending loop, and leaves outbound
callers blocked until _OUTBOUND_TIMEOUT_S (30s). The effective grace is
now budget - 3*TEARDOWN - margin (env-aware via the same
HERMES_GATEWAY_ADAPTER_DISCONNECT_TIMEOUT the runner reads), so the drain
can never push teardown past its caller's budget; a budget too small for
any drain disables it cleanly.

* test(gateway): pin the final-send suppression contract across a behaviour matrix

The gateway skips its own final send when the stream consumer claims the turn
final already reached the user. Every incident in that family — NousResearch#71643 (stale
finalize snapshot), NousResearch#78541 (payload-less multi-message split), NousResearch#82656 (frozen
preview left with a visible cursor) — is the same failure: the consumer claimed
delivery for text the platform never rendered, so the corrective send was
suppressed and the answer was lost with no retry.

Each was fixed with a scenario test pinned to one branch of
GatewayStreamConsumer.run(). The got_done handler now has five sibling branches
that each set the suppression flags and record a turn-final payload, and nothing
checks them as a group: a new branch, or a new early `return True` in
_send_or_edit, can reintroduce the class without failing a test.

Pin the invariant instead of the branch — if the consumer offers the gateway any
signal it would trust, the complete final text must have reached the wire — and
assert it across {edit always / dies / never / lies} x {send always / never} x
{fresh-final on / off} x {clean / interrupted stream}.

The adapter records only frames that actually rendered, so an ACK the platform
drops does not count as delivery. 24 honest-transport scenarios hold the
invariant as a hard assertion. The 16 lying-transport scenarios are checked too;
the single combination that still violates it is reported as an expected
failure documenting the open exposure rather than asserting it away.

* fix(gateway,relay): prime relay egress routing for synthetic injections + cap stale completion replay

Defect #4 from the 2026-08-09 staging incidents (upgrade-robustness):
after every gateway restart the durable async-delegation replay injected
completions correctly (post-741663cf1) but their replies bounced at the
connector — 'slack egress declined: target not routed to an onboarded
tenant'. The relay adapter re-attaches tenant discriminators
(metadata.scope_id / metadata.user_id) from per-chat caches warmed ONLY by
inbound traffic; synthetic turns race those cold caches on every deploy,
scale-to-zero wake, and crash recovery.

- relay adapter: prime_routing_cache() — feeds a synthetic event's
  session-store origin through the same _capture_scope used for real
  inbound (never raises).
- run.py injection path: prime the resolved adapter before handle_message
  (duck-typed; native adapters unaffected).
- async_delegation: 48h staleness cap in restore_undelivered_completions —
  a pending completion older than the cap is terminally dropped (payload
  stays queryable) instead of re-run as a fresh full-context turn; the
  post-restart replay of a July session burned a 102K-token context.

Also carried: JoaoMarcos44's suppression behaviour-matrix harness
(cherry-picked from NousResearch#82676, authorship preserved) — 39 passed + 1 xfail
(the documented ACK-then-drop transport-honesty residue).

* test: use recent timestamps in restored-ownership fixtures

test_restore_stamps_restored_flag persisted its completion with epoch-era
toy timestamps (dispatched_at=1.0), which the new 48h replay staleness cap
correctly classifies as stale — the fixture then exercised the cap instead
of the restored-flag contract (CI slice 4 failure). Timestamps are now
now-relative; the staleness behavior itself is pinned separately in
test_relay_injection_egress_priming.py.

* fix(gateway,relay): close four review findings on the relay delivery fixes

Review follow-ups on this branch (NousResearch#82592):

1. HIGH — classifier/resolver mismatch (falsely-acknowledged loss).
   _classify_completion_target now returns "deliver" for idle-ended
   parents, but _resolve_async_delegation_session still dropped every
   non-compression-ended pin: the durable row was acked at adapter
   acceptance, then the injection died inside the pipeline with no
   retry — strictly worse than the honest terminal drop on main, and
   the delivery leg defect #2's fix depends on did not exist. The
   resolver now retargets non-user-boundary ends (idle/timeout/
   lifecycle) to the chat's current session — session_entry already IS
   the routing key's current session for the same chat — while user
   boundaries (session_reset / new_session / user_exit /
   session_switch) stay fail-closed. Both sides share one module-level
   _USER_BOUNDARY_END_REASONS so the verdict and the routing decision
   cannot drift again; a coherence test asserts deliver-verdicts
   resolve non-None across representative end reasons.

2. HIGH — drain clamp missed adapter-level spend. The effective drain
   grace budgeted drain + 3x teardown, but RelayAdapter.disconnect
   spends revocation-monitor teardown + go_idle time BEFORE the
   transport drain inside the same runner wait_for; worst case still
   blew the budget and cancelled teardown mid-drain (skipping the
   fail-pending loop). The adapter now measures its own elapsed time
   and threads the REMAINING budget into
   transport.disconnect(budget_s=...); legacy/stub transports without
   the keyword fall back to the no-arg signature.

3. P1 — _request_response racing disconnect() could register a future
   after the fail-pending loop already ran, stranding the caller for
   the full _OUTBOUND_TIMEOUT_S (30s). Fail fast with the same
   "relay transport closed" error once _closing is set.

4. P1 — _build_process_event_source's last-resort reconstruction
   dropped scope_id, so a scoped relay completion whose session-store
   origin was unavailable primed no tenant discriminator and could
   still bounce off the connector's fail-closed egress guard.
   scope_id now threads through the reconstructed SessionSource, with
   a warning when a scoped chat reconstructs without one.

All four: RED reproduced with the fix reverted, GREEN after; relay/
delegation delivery families pass (43 + 71 + 179 across the touched
suites); full tests/gateway run shows only failures already failing
identically on merge base 2446c8b (env/dep issues).

* fix(gateway,relay): make pending-frame failure cancellation-safe; persist completion routing origin

Two remaining review findings on this branch (NousResearch#82592):

1. Cancellation could strand outbound waiters past the fail-pending
   loop. transport.disconnect() failed pending futures only at the END
   of the drain + three teardown awaits; a cancellation landing
   mid-drain (the runner's wait_for budget, an outer cleanup deadline)
   skipped the loop entirely and left registered futures unresolved —
   their callers blocked until _OUTBOUND_TIMEOUT_S (30s). The budget
   threading added earlier shrinks the window but is not a hard
   guarantee. The fail-pending loop (and the going_idle ack failure)
   now run in a `finally`, so no exit path — normal, error, or
   cancelled — can leave a registered future unresolved. Idempotent:
   done futures are skipped, a second disconnect() pass is a no-op.

2. Durable completions did not persist their routing origin, so the
   scope_id threading in the fallback SessionSource reconstruction had
   nothing to carry on the exact path it exists for (restart replay
   with session store + source cache gone): the async-delegation event
   producers never populated scope_id and the durable rows never
   stored it. Dispatch now snapshots the originating turn's
   scope_id/user_id/user_name from the session context
   (_capture_routing_origin — a new HERMES_SESSION_SCOPE_ID contextvar
   bound by the gateway at session-bind time alongside the existing
   vars), stores them in the existing task_json payload (no schema
   migration), and re-attaches them to all three completion-event
   shapes (live single, live batch, crash-recovery rebuild). The
   gateway's fallback reconstruction then primes both discriminators
   after a restart.

Tests: cancellation mid-drain -> every pending future resolves with
"relay transport closed" (mutation: moving the loop out of the finally
goes RED); second-pass disconnect idempotence; end-to-end
dispatch -> owner-death recovery -> event carries scope_id -> fallback
SessionSource primes it (mutations: dropping the dispatch capture or
the task_json persistence both go RED); live completion event carries
the origin. 94 passed + 1 xfailed across the delivery/delegation
suites; tests/tools delegation family 73 passed (2 collection errors
pre-existing on merge base 2446c8b).
