Adds a new config option terminal.font_family that lets users customize the
CSS font-family for the desktop app's embedded xterm.js terminal.
Previously the font was hardcoded in use-terminal-session.ts:
'JetBrains Mono', 'Cascadia Code', 'SF Mono', Menlo, Consolas, monospace
Now the value from config.yaml (terminal.font_family) is threaded through:
useHermesConfig → PersistentTerminal → TerminalTab → useTerminalSession
When font_family is empty or unset (default), the built-in fallback is used,
preserving backward compatibility. Users with Nerd Fonts installed (e.g.
CaskaydiaCoveNerdFont) can now set:
terminal:
font_family: 'CaskaydiaCoveNerdFont', 'JetBrains Mono', monospace
Closes: #terminal-font-config
Setting prompt_caching.cache_ttl to a falsy value (false, null, off,
disabled, no, none) now fully disables prompt caching instead of
being silently ignored.
The disable propagates through anthropic_prompt_cache_policy() (early
return when _cache_disabled flag is set) and restore_primary_runtime()
(override after snapshot restore), so it survives /model switches and
fallback re-derivation — the gap that caused #56105 to be reverted in
#56126.
Salvage of #33555 by @BB-light, with model-switch/fallback survival
gap fixed on top.

Non-interactive sessions (hermes chat -q, hermes -z) snapshot the tool
registry at AIAgent construction time. If background MCP discovery hasn't
finished, MCP tools are invisible for the entire session — and unlike
interactive mode, there is no between-turns late-binding refresh to recover.
Root cause: wait_for_mcp_discovery() only joins an already-created discovery
thread, so it no-ops if a direct/single-query path reaches agent construction
before MCP startup created that thread. Oneshot._run_agent() didn't call it
at all.
Fix:
- Add ensure_mcp_discovery_before_agent_build() helper to mcp_startup.py:
idempotently starts discovery if needed + bounded wait. Fail-open on errors.
- Add single_query parameter to _resolve_discovery_timeout/wait_for_mcp_discovery:
uses mcp_single_query_discovery_timeout (default 15s) instead of the
interactive mcp_discovery_timeout (1.5s) because one-shot sessions have no
second turn to recover.
- Wire into CLI _init_agent (single_query from _single_query_mode flag set
in cli.py's single-query path) and oneshot._run_agent (single_query=True).
- Interactive sessions unchanged: keep 1.5s bound (between-turns refresh covers).

Port from nanocoai/nanoclaw#2748: Docker's built-in 64 MB /dev/shm silently
breaks shared-memory-hungry workloads inside the sandbox — Chromium/Playwright
renderers crash tabs, and PyTorch DataLoader workers die with 'bus error' /
'insufficient shared memory'. tmpfs is lazily allocated, so the higher ceiling
costs nothing until actually used, and usage still counts against the
container's --memory cgroup limit.
- tools/environments/docker.py: --shm-size 1g in resource args (not
cgroup-gated; tmpfs mount option). Skipped when docker_extra_args already
sets --shm-size, or when configured empty/'0' (Docker default).
- terminal.docker_shm_size config key (DEFAULT_CONFIG + all three
config->TERMINAL_DOCKER_SHM_SIZE env bridges: CLI, gateway, config.py map)
- tests: default emit, custom value, opt-out, extra_args precedence,
helper edge cases (sabotage-verified: default/custom tests fail without
the emit)
The on/off switch was the only knob. A pass fired after every completed turn,
absorbed exactly one exchange, and there was no way to ask for less. Since a
pass is also what breaks the prompt-cache prefix, "how often does it run" and
"how often do I pay a cache break" are the same question, and it had no answer.
Add `compression.micro_compact_every_n_turns` (default 1, clamped to >= 1). At 1
the behaviour is what it was; at 5 you get a fifth of the breaks and a fifth of
the reclaim rate. The counter advances per invocation rather than per committed
pass, so a turn that finds nothing to absorb still moves the cadence along and
cannot wedge it, and a bogus 0 or negative degrades to "every turn" instead of
silently disabling compaction.
Also expose `micro_compact_defrag_threshold_tokens`, which has been a hardcoded
attribute on the compressor with no path from config since it was added.
This does not give micro-compaction the prune's reclaim-size gate -- a pass
still commits whatever the single absorbed exchange saved. It makes the break
frequency tunable, which reaches the same end by absorbing less rather than by
waiting for a bigger win. The docs now say that plainly, including that a
reclaim threshold is the obvious follow-up and does not exist yet.
Tests cover the skip-until-due window, the cursor and prefix staying untouched
on skipped turns, the clamp, and that the feature is off unless enabled.

Review raised whether default-on can be reconciled with the prompt-cache
contract in AGENTS.md, which permits mutating past context only for context
compression and treats per-conversation caching as sacred. It cannot, and the
codebase already says so in its own words.
A micro-compaction pass rewrites already-sent history, so it invalidates the
cached prefix every turn rather than at an episodic boundary. That is the exact
cost the proactive prune gates against: `proactive_prune_min_reclaim_tokens`
exists, per its own config comment, to keep rewrites to "one big episodic break
instead of a tiny break every tool iteration." Micro-compaction has no
equivalent gate -- one exchange per turn means one break per turn, by design.
Default to off. An operator who wants the amortized stall can opt in with
`compression.micro_compact: true` and accept the tradeoff knowingly; nobody
inherits a per-turn cache break from installing an update.
Also register the key in config_defaults so it is discoverable and picked up by
the update path's new-options check -- it was previously read by agent_init but
declared nowhere -- and document the cache cost in docs/micro-compaction.md
instead of only the benefit. The measurements behind the feature (occupancy
plateau, zero batch compactions) never priced cache invalidation, and the doc
now says which numbers a reader would need to measure to justify enabling it.

database.wal_autocheckpoint / database.journal_size_limit are now real
schema keys (default None = SQLite defaults) so the dashboard config
schema doesn't produce a single-field 'database' category, and the two
pragmas apply_database_pragmas reads are discoverable/documented.
Use database.journal_mode as the sole non-secret operator setting, preserve the vulnerable-SQLite safety gate and existing WAL databases, validate explicit DELETE results, document the active config path, and cover real SQLite openers with behavioral tests.
Replaces the half-duplex per-playback barge monitors with ONE listener
that runs for the entire agent turn in continuous voice mode: armed at
utterance-submit, disarmed when the turn is fully done (response + TTS
finished). Fixes Teknium's live report that voice interruption never
works: (a) not while the LLM is generating, (b) not while TTS plays.
Root causes:
- HALF-DUPLEX GAP: the barge monitor only spawned when TTS playback
STARTED (cli.py streaming/whole-file paths, gateway _tts_stream_begin).
During LLM generation there was NO microphone listener at all.
- PLAYBACK DEAFNESS: the monitor calibrated its VAD noise floor WHILE the
speaker was blasting TTS (speaker bleed baked into the floor), then
multiplied it by 8x with a 1s strictly-consecutive block requirement —
normal speech could rarely reach the trigger, and the 2s grace
swallowed early interjections.
New model — tools/voice_mode.full_duplex_listen():
- Pre-playback calibration: quiet-room noise floor established at turn
start and HELD through playback (never recalibrated against bleed).
- Phase-aware trigger: generation = floor x voice.barge_in_threshold_multiplier
(new config, default 3.0, justified by synthetic-frame tests);
playback = additionally clamped to a 1500-RMS minimum so bleed alone
can't trip; 4000-RMS ceiling keeps speech always reachable.
- Windowed-majority detection (>=80% of a 300ms window) instead of the
strictly-consecutive counter that reset on intra-word energy dips.
- Grace on playback ONSET only (voice.barge_in_grace_seconds, default
down 2.0 -> 0.5) — suppresses the onset transient, not the mic.
- Debug diagnostics at every decision point (calibrated floor, per-window
RMS above 50% of trigger, trip/no-trip, grace suppressions) — always
logger.debug, mirrored to stderr under HERMES_VOICE_DEBUG=1.
Phase behavior (CLI cli.py + tui_gateway/server.py, same model):
- generation: speech interrupts the in-flight turn via the SAME seam the
typed/Ctrl+C interrupt uses (agent.interrupt()), cuts any pending TTS
pipeline so the stale reply never plays, and submits the captured
interjection (pre-roll capture, first syllable kept) as the next turn.
- playback: cuts TTS (streaming pipeline stop + fallback speak stop
events + file player) and submits the capture.
- stop phrase honored in BOTH phases: mid-generation 'stop' interrupts
the turn AND ends the voice chat (stop everything).
- one listener instance spans generation -> playback (no re-arm race);
double-arm refused (CLI _voice_fd_active / gateway _fd_listener_active).
Gateway specifics: _arm_full_duplex_listener() at _run_prompt_submit turn
start and inside _tts_stream_begin; _speak_text_with_barge registers its
(stop, done) pair in _fd_speak_pipelines so fallback speaks are cut and
tracked; _tts_stream_barge_in_monitor kept as a shim that arms the new
listener. Desktop renderer owns its own mic path (voice-barge-in.ts) and
is unaffected; if desktop backend-mic mode is used it inherits via the
gateway.
Tests: full_duplex_listen synthetic-RMS suite (speech-over-bleed trips,
bleed alone doesn't, quiet floor held through playback, grace window,
multiplier math 3x vs 8x, windowed-majority dips), CLI listener phase
tests (generation interrupt seam, playback cut, lifecycle spans phases,
double-arm, config forwarding, stop-phrase-mid-generation), gateway
generation-phase interrupt + stop-phrase tests. Generation-interrupt
test sabotage-verified.
