cryptography 48.0.1 carries three advisories (GHSA-m2h6-j472-rp4c,
GHSA-jwv3-5hgf-82ww, CVE-2026-69247). msal and alibabacloud-tea-openapi
cap cryptography below 49, so the bump needs an override-dependencies
entry in [tool.uv] to take effect.
The cap is conservative, not a real limit: we installed tea-openapi
against cryptography 50 and its client ran with no errors.
This override only governs `uv lock` / `uv sync`. The lazy-install
path does not read [tool.uv] and can still downgrade the pin; the next
commit closes that path.
aiohttp moves to 3.14.3 in the same pass, for GHSA-9548-qrrj-x5pj.
many tests patched sys.platform or a module's _IS_WINDOWS flag, then
ran on linux ci. the patch selects the branch under test, but the host
does not have the behavior the branch exists for. the test proves the
patch, not the platform. some gated assertions never ran on any host.
this commit adds three markers: linux_only, macos_only, windows_only.
a conftest hook skips a marked test on the other hosts, with a clear
reason. no test fakes a host now. two documented fakes remain
(android/termux, freebsd) because no ci runner exists for them.
each fake site got one of four treatments:
- gate it: the real host supplies the platform; mocks cover real
dependencies only, never host identity
- patch the module's own probe when the subject is the probe's consumer
- assert against the real host when the fake stood in for any non-x host
- delete the patch when it set the value the host already has
bare skipif(sys.platform != ...) guards became markers too. the lane
model skips these on linux and never imports them on windows, so they
ran on no host. platform parametrize tables are now one marked test
per os.
running on real hosts found real errors: a chrome-sandbox failure in
test_gui_command that main hides, and two windows failures fixed here.
the agents.md testing section now documents the policy.
requires-python is >=3.11 so tomllib is always in stdlib; the
tomli fallback branch in _lint_toml_inproc was unreachable. Removes
the dependency from pyproject.toml + uv.lock and deletes the dead
try/except ImportError fallback in the code.
Bug 1 (UTF-8 BOM loss on V4A UPDATE):
_file_has_bom() trusted pre_content for BOM detection, but the most
common pre_content provider — read_file_raw() — deliberately strips
BOMs so the agent never sees U+FEFF glyphs. Passing BOM-stripped
content through pre_content caused a false-negative: the method
returned False and write_file() silently removed the marker on rewrite.
Fix: _file_has_bom() now always probes the first 3 bytes on disk
(head -c 3), ignoring pre_content for BOM purposes. pre_content is
still used by two other consumers — line-ending detection and lint/LSP
delta computation — neither of which is affected by BOM stripping.
Bug 2 (backward compatibility):
_apply_update() called write_file(path, content, pre_content=...) as a
keyword argument. Duck-typed file_ops implementations that only
implement the two-argument write_file(path, content) contract would
raise TypeError.
Fix: wrap the call in try/except TypeError, falling back to the
two-argument form when the keyword is not accepted.
Also declare tomli in pyproject.toml (pre-existing conditional import
for pre-3.11 Python, caught by the pre-commit dep scan after staging
file_operations.py).
Tests:
Add TestV4ABomRoundTrip with two cases:
- UPDATE on BOM-bearing file preserves the marker
- UPDATE on plain file does not inject a BOM

Google API and authentication packages permit vulnerable httplib2 and pyasn1
transitives, while the Workspace and Google Chat runtime installers previously
treated any importable version as sufficient. Existing environments could
therefore remain vulnerable after the project dependency pins were repaired.
Carry the fixed versions through the Google and Vertex extras, lazy feature
requirements, lockfile, and both runtime installers. Route the documented
Google Chat installation path through its maintained secure requirements
instead of an unconstrained direct pip command.
Detect stale distributions, install only unsatisfied requirements, and verify
the result before continuing. Behavioral tests cover those repair invariants
without freezing manifests, lockfiles, or complete package sets.

Registers the two genuinely-unregistered markers (no_isolate, ssh) in
pyproject.toml, silencing PytestUnknownMarkWarning for tests/tools/test_mcp_*
and tests/tools/test_file_sync_perf.py.
Dropped hunk: the live_system_guard_bypass line from the original PR — that
marker is already registered dynamically via pytest_configure/addinivalue_line
in tests/conftest.py, so the ini entry would be a duplicate.
Salvaged from #71403.
Cross-file leaks made tests/tui_gateway + tests/test_tui_gateway_server.py
fail when run in one process (issue #57068):
- conftest: _hermetic_environment now re-pins hermes_state.DEFAULT_DB_PATH
to the fake home so no test ever touches the developer's real state.db
- conftest: new autouse _reset_tui_gateway_server_state snapshots/restores
_methods, cfg cache, db handle and _real_stdout, and tears down leftover
sessions via the production _close_session_by_id(..., end_reason=
"test_cleanup") boundary
- per-file fixtures scope patch.dict(sys.modules) to the import only
- drop reload()-based teardowns that duplicated atexit hooks
Conflict resolution vs main: kept main's mod._live_transports.clear() in
the test_protocol.py server fixture alongside the snapshot/restore logic.
Combined run now 792 passed / 0 failed.

openWakeWord's ONNX backend returns near-zero scores on Apple Silicon
(dscripka/openWakeWord#336), so "Hey Hermes" never crossed the 0.5
threshold: the listener armed, the microphone worked, and nothing fired.
Bisecting the pipeline puts the fault in exactly one stage — feeding the
same audio through both backends, the melspectrogram front-end is
bit-identical (maxdiff 0.00000) and the wake classifier agrees on
identical features, while the shared embedding model diverges by 45.44.
Cross-feeding confirms it: tflite features scored through the *onnx*
classifier give 0.9948 vs 0.000009 for onnx features. A telling
secondary symptom is that scores fall as input gets louder (0.5x ->
0.00031, 8x -> 0.000066), which is garbage inference rather than a weak
detection.
Selecting tflite in config alone does not fix it. openWakeWord hardcodes
`import tflite_runtime.interpreter` but declares tflite-runtime for
`platform_system == "Linux"` only; on macOS the equivalent wheel is
ai-edge-litert, so that import always fails and model.py silently
downgrades back to onnx. The result is a detector that reports itself
listening and can never fire.
- default the backend per platform (tflite on macOS ARM64, onnx
elsewhere) instead of hardcoding onnx, and pick the matching bundled
model artifact
- bridge tflite_runtime -> ai_edge_litert through sys.modules, in-process,
with no writes to site-packages
- refuse the silent onnx downgrade on macOS ARM64 and report the missing
runtime through check_wake_word_requirements() so the GUI surfaces an
actionable hint rather than arming a dead ear
- lazy-install ai-edge-litert via its own feature key, because lazy-dep
specs cannot carry PEP 508 markers (_spec_is_safe rejects ";")
An explicit `inference_framework` in config still wins, so anyone pinning
a backend keeps it.
Verified on macOS 26.5.2 / M-series: "hey hermes" scores 0.0005 on onnx
and 0.9423 on tflite from the same clip, with cross-phrase controls at
0.0003. Live over-the-air through the real microphone fires 4/4
utterances (peak 0.9532).
Two fixes from live testing (Teknium):
1. Desktop installs now ship the wake/voice stacks up front.
install.sh + install.ps1 desktop stages run 'uv pip install
-e .[wake,voice]' (best-effort, lazy-install remains the fallback)
before building the app, so the first ear-click arms instantly
instead of sitting through a multi-minute onnxruntime download.
CLI-only installs keep the lazy path — [all] curation unchanged.
2. The vanished ear: the STT/TTS gate made wake.status call
check_tts_requirements(), whose edge path runs _import_edge_tts →
lazy_deps.ensure — a synchronous PIP INSTALL inside a status poll.
On a venv without edge-tts that blew the desktop's 30s RPC timeout,
armWakeWord caught the error, the atom never learned enabled=true,
and the ear unmounted. _tts_ready is now a pure probe: deps missing
+ lazy installs allowed counts as ready (installs at first speak)
WITHOUT touching pip; check_tts_requirements only runs once deps
are present. Regression test asserts the probe never calls it while
deps are missing.
New "sherpa" wake_word provider: the configured phrase is BPE-tokenized
at runtime against a small streaming zipformer KWS model (~13 MB English,
one-time download cached under HERMES_HOME), so ANY typed phrase works
with zero training — including per-profile phrases like "hey coder".
wake.sherpa lazy-dep group + [wake] extra grow sherpa-onnx/sentencepiece;
requirements probe routes per provider; sensitivity maps onto sherpa
keywords_threshold. E2E-verified on real audio (target phrase fires,
foreign phrase stays silent, reset drops buffered state).
Adds an opt-in, on-device hotword listener for the CLI. With
wake_word.enabled (or /wake on), Hermes listens in the background for a
wake phrase; on detection it starts a fresh session, captures one
utterance through the existing voice pipeline, and answers — the
"Hey Siri" pattern.
- tools/wake_word.py: provider-pluggable detector (openWakeWord, free
local default; Porcupine, premium) over the shared 16 kHz sounddevice
capture path. Background daemon thread with pause/resume so it yields
the mic during a voice turn.
- CLI wiring: startup listener (off-thread), on-wake flow, an idle
watchdog that resumes the detector after each turn, cleanup hook, and
a /wake [on|off|status] command.
- config.yaml wake_word section; PORCUPINE_ACCESS_KEY as an optional
secret. Engines lazy-install via the [wake] extra.
- Hands a transcript to the input queue exactly like voice mode, so no
system-prompt/cache mutation. No new core model tool.
- Tests (mocked, no live audio/network) + feature docs.
Adjusts the salvaged pin refresh (#60839 by @embwl0x) to the actually
mergeable versions and regenerates the lock:
- cryptography 46.0.7 -> 48.0.1 (GHSA-537c-gmf6-5ccf fixed in 48.0.1;
49.x is NOT possible: msal caps <49 and alibabacloud-tea-openapi caps
<49 — documented at the pin site). Also resolves the
hindsight-api-slim>=48.0.1 conflict reported in Discord.
- starlette 1.0.1 -> 1.3.1 across core/web/mcp/computer-use/dev extras
and LAZY_DEPS (fastapi accepts >=0.40, mcp >=0.27)
- python-multipart 0.0.27 -> 0.0.32 ([web] + tool.dashboard)
- uv.lock regenerated (tea-openapi 0.4.4->0.4.5 for the <49 crypto cap)
Keeps @embwl0x's anti-downgrade floor guard in test_packaging_metadata
with the corrected cryptography floor (48,0,1). Fixes#60685: a user env
already upgraded to these versions is no longer downgraded by
hermes update, because the pins now ARE those versions.
Two tests fail deterministically on main depending only on which SQLite the
test interpreter links — nothing about the code under test. Both are green in
isolation and red in the suite / on an older library, the worst diagnostic
shape.
Root cause A — WAL is not always WAL. Hermes refuses journal_mode=WAL on
SQLite builds carrying the upstream WAL-reset corruption bug (3.7.0–3.51.2,
excluding backports 3.50.7 / 3.44.6) and falls back to DELETE. On such a
build NO -wal sidecar is ever created, so
test_wal_checkpoint_truncates_wal_file asserts on a file that cannot exist.
Invisible locally when the repo .venv and the Hermes managed runtime link
different versions (observed: .venv 3.50.4 → DELETE, runtime 3.53.1 → WAL),
so the same test passes for one interpreter and fails for the other.
- tests/conftest.py: add a `requires_wal` marker plus a
pytest_collection_modifyitems hook that skips such tests when the linked
library will fall back to DELETE. The skip reason names the actual
version so it is diagnosable rather than mysterious.
- pyproject.toml: register the marker.
- test_kanban_db_repair.py: mark the -wal-sidecar test.
Root cause B — process-global warn-once dedup. The WAL-fallback warning is
emitted at most once per (process, db_label). Any earlier test in
test_kanban_db.py that opens a kanban.db consumes that one-shot, so
test_connect_falls_back_to_delete_on_locking_protocol sees zero warnings and
fails — but only as part of the file, never alone.
- test_kanban_db.py: clear both dedup sets in the test that asserts on the
warning, with a comment explaining the isolation trap.
The gate deliberately does NOT import hermes_state. That module computes
DEFAULT_DB_PATH from get_hermes_home() at import time, so importing it during
collection — before the per-test _isolate_hermes_home fixture redirects
HERMES_HOME — permanently caches the developer's REAL ~/.hermes/state.db for
the whole session. The first version of this change did exactly that and made
tests read a live 31,881-session production database (test_console_engine
asserted "Total sessions: 2" and got 31881). The version predicate is
duplicated instead, and tests/test_conftest_wal_gate.py pins the two
implementations in agreement across every documented upstream boundary plus
guards against the import coming back.
Verified: on SQLite 3.50.4 the sidecar test SKIPS naming the version; on
3.53.1 it RUNS and passes, so coverage is not lost where WAL works. Clean
main fails exactly these 2 tests under
`scripts/run_tests.sh tests/hermes_cli/ tests/test_hermes_state.py`
(9926 passed, 2 failed); with this change the same scope is green.
Tests: 726 passed across the two kanban files, test_hermes_state.py, and the
new gate tests.
Salvages the event-spine foundation from feat/telemetry-observability
(emitter, typed events, OTLP streaming, redaction — authorship preserved in
the preceding commits) and scopes it to the plane enterprise operators need
today: gateway Service Health Monitoring plus redacted Operational
Diagnostics, exported over OTLP.
Dropped from the salvaged branch, deliberately:
- run/model/tool trajectory capture (plugins/telemetry hooks, tel_spans)
- the local JSONL + state.db tel_* store (monitoring is egress, not storage)
- usage rollups/metrics, /insights integration, bulk export
- hermes telemetry CLI (replaced by hermes monitoring status)
Those planes — shared client usage metrics and enterprise trace telemetry —
are being designed on the NeMo Relay integration with distinct consent,
policy, and export boundaries; this keeps the monitoring plane content-free
and independently enableable.
Renames agent/telemetry -> agent/monitoring, config telemetry.* ->
monitoring.*, and pins the otlp extra at OpenTelemetry 1.39.1 (matching
uv.lock; 1.30.0 conflicts with mistralai>=2.4 on opentelemetry-api).
Add a built-in telemetry system that records what the agent does — workflows,
model calls, tool calls, errors — to the local machine, powers `/insights`, and
can export to an operator-chosen destination. Default-on locally; nothing leaves
the machine unless the user exports it or opts into the aggregate plane.
Three planes with a hard wall between them:
- local: full-fidelity observability (real model/provider/tool names), on by
default, never leaves the machine.
- aggregate: opt-in metadata, default off. No uploader ships — consent is
recorded via telemetry.consent_state, and `preview` shows what would be
produced, computed locally.
- trajectories: full message content, opt-in, exported only to the operator's
own destination.
Mechanism:
- Bundled `telemetry` plugin registers observational lifecycle hooks
(on_session_start / post_api_request / post_tool_call / on_session_finalize).
No core call sites are edited; hooks already carry the data.
- Fire-and-forget emitter: emit() returns in microseconds, never blocks or
raises into a model/tool call. A daemon thread writes events to an
append-only JSONL log and the tel_* tables in state.db (its own sqlite
connection, separate from SessionDB).
- tel_runs / tel_model_calls / tel_tool_calls live in the declarative
SCHEMA_SQL and are reconciled automatically; SCHEMA_VERSION 16 -> 17.
- metrics derives rollups for /usage and /insights; rollup builds per-run
summaries for `hermes telemetry preview`.
Consent is config, not a parallel command surface. The config file is the root
of trust: set telemetry.consent_state with `hermes config set`, or pin any
telemetry.* key (including allow_aggregate) via managed scope, which overrides
the user's value per key. `hermes telemetry` exposes only what config cannot:
status (report), preview (query), and export.
Export:
- exporter_bulk writes telemetry (and, when the trajectories plane is enabled,
session content) to ndjson/json.
- otlp_exporter streams spans to a configured OpenTelemetry Collector over
OTLP/HTTP. The SDK is an optional extra (hermes-agent[otlp]), lazily
installed via tools.lazy_deps on first use.
- Secrets are always redacted on every export path
(redact_sensitive_text(force=True)); content export is gated by the
trajectories plane, and PII scrubbing follows telemetry.content_redaction.
OTLP auth headers reference environment variable names, never inline values.
No outbound emission to Nous. The aggregate uploader is intentionally not built.
Removes Homebrew and PyPI wheel/sdist as Hermes distribution paths while
preserving the supported source, Docker, and Nix workflows.
Changes:
- Removes the Homebrew formula, PyPI publish workflow, sdist manifest
(MANIFEST.in), and wheel/sdist release-attachment logic from scripts/release.py.
- Keeps setuptools metadata and entry points required by editable installs
and Docker/Nix builds, but adds a setup.py guard that rejects wheel/sdist
builds outside a sealed Nix derivation (HERMES_NIX_BUILD=1).
- Removes pip/Homebrew install detection, PyPI update checks, the pip
self-update path, the deprecation-banner state, the postinstall subcommand,
wheel data-directory fallbacks in agent/i18n.py and hermes_constants.py,
and the ACP Registry manifest/version-lockstep release logic.
- Adds /nix/store/ path detection so `nix run` / `nix profile install`
installs (which don't set HERMES_MANAGED) are correctly identified as
"nix" rather than falling through to "git"/"unknown".
- Retired install-method values ("pip", "homebrew") in existing
.install_method stamps (both code-scoped and home-scoped) are ignored by
the allowlist reader and fall through to "unknown" instead of resurrecting
a retired enum value.
- Updates Nix packaging to ship bare runtime data (locales, optional-mcps)
through store symlinks and wrapper env vars instead of wheel data-files.
- Removes the ACP Registry manifest/icon and their version-lockstep tests.
- Deletes or rewrites packaging, pip-update, Homebrew, and ACP Registry
tests; adds parametrized coverage for the packaging build guard covering
BOTH sdist and wheel paths (the guards live in separate cmdclass entries
— a passing sdist test proves nothing about the wheel path).
- Updates installation/platform documentation and related user-facing copy.
- Adjusts the supply-chain scan so deleted install-hook files do not trigger
a finding, while additions or modifications still require the existing
ci-reviewed label gate.
Supported installation paths (unchanged):
- git installer (install.sh)
- Docker
- Nix/NixOS
- editable development installs (uv sync, uv pip install -e ., pip install -e .)
hermes_cli/windows_ssh_runtime.py imports win32security/win32file/etc.
directly but pywin32 only arrived transitively via concurrent-log-handler
-> portalocker. Declare it with a sys_platform gate so the Windows SSH
runtime doesn't depend on the logging dep chain. Review follow-up on
PR #68130.
