* 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, #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 — #71643 (stale
finalize snapshot), #78541 (payload-less multi-message split), #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 #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 2446c8bb6 (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 2446c8bb6).
