Second, deeper pass over tools/gateway/hermes_cli plus first pass over
the trees wave 1 missed (acp, acp_adapter, skills, computer_use, docker,
dashboard, conformance, monitoring, secret_sources, hermes_state,
providers). Same rubric as wave 1 (AGENTS.md test policy); security,
alternation/caching invariants, issue-number regressions, and E2E kept.
Real test-quality fixes found and rooted out along the way:
- tests/tools/test_command_guards.py made real auxiliary-LLM HTTPS calls
(DEFAULT_CONFIG smart-approval leaked in) — pinned approval
mode=manual via autouse fixture: 17.4s → 0.4s.
- test_model_switch_custom_providers.py / test_user_providers_model_switch.py
silently probed live provider catalogs (~2s/test) — stubbed
cached_provider_model_ids/provider_model_ids/fetch_api_models.
- test_telegram_noise_filter.py: 15-platform copy-paste matrix over
shared gateway.run logic → 3 representative platforms (55s → 3.9s).
- test_gateway_shutdown.py: stop()'s 5s interrupt-deadline loop spun on
MagicMock agents — interrupt.side_effect now clears _running_agents
(22s → 1.0s).
- test_gateway_inactivity_timeout.py poll-harness timings shrunk 3-5x
(24s → 1.1s); test_mcp_stability.py backoff/SIGTERM-grace sleeps
patched (15.4s → 2.5s); test_async_delegation.py negative-drain wait
5s → 0.5s.
- test_telegram_init_deadline.py: loop-block margin restored to 1.0s
with rationale comment — the watchdog-dump assertion needs the loop
blocked well past deadline+grace under parallel load (flaked once in
the 40-worker verification run at a 0.2s margin).
Verification: full hermetic suite via scripts/run_tests.sh —
2,438 files, 21,718 tests passed, 0 failed, 293.9s wall.
Suite totals vs original baseline: 46,820 → 19,757 test functions
(−57.8%), wall 583.5s → 293.9s (−50%), subprocess CPU 13,564s → 11,623s.
Follow-up to the #51899 pick, folding in the config-bridge half of the
competing PR #46925 (@bhanusharma, earliest submitter for the
ignored-channel gate):
- _apply_yaml_config: translate config.yaml slack.ignored_channels into
SLACK_IGNORED_CHANNELS (list or CSV), env-var-wins like every other
bridged Slack key.
- SlackAdapter._slack_ignored_channels / gateway.run's
_slack_ignored_channels_from_gateway_config: fall back to the
SLACK_IGNORED_CHANNELS env var when PlatformConfig.extra carries no
value, so top-level slack: blocks (which flow through the env bridge,
not extra) are honored at both the adapter and runner gates.
- conftest: force-clear SLACK_ALLOWED_CHANNELS / SLACK_IGNORED_CHANNELS /
SLACK_DISABLE_DMS between tests (config-loader side-effect leak class).
- Tests: env-bridge translation + precedence in test_config.py, env
fallback + extra-wins in test_slack_runner_ignored_channels.py.
Credit: #46925 by @bhanusharma proposed the same gate with the YAML→env
bridge; #51899 (picked as the base) carries the wider outbound/runner
coverage. Closes#46925 as consolidated here with first-submitter credit.
