ci: split Tests workflow into 4 parallel shards via pytest-split

Reduces CI wall time by running the test suite as 4 parallel matrix
jobs instead of a single job. Each shard runs ~3,000 tests in
parallel, so total wall time drops from ~4min to ~60-90s.

Changes:
- Add pytest-split to dev extras (deterministic test splitting,
  composes with pytest-xdist's -n auto inside each shard).
- Matrix-split tests.yml 'test' job into 4 groups. Each shard runs
  'pytest ... --splits 4 --group N' and parallelizes inside with
  the -n auto already in pyproject.toml's addopts.
- fail-fast: false so all shards finish even if one fails
  (consistent with current behavior when there's no matrix).

Expected CI timing:
  Before: 243s single-job (4m03s)
  After:  ~60-90s per shard in parallel + ~25s install overhead
          \u2192 total CI ~90-115s

No test-file changes. Deterministic hash-based distribution (no
.test_durations file yet; can add one later for better balance).

The e2e job is unchanged — it's already small (20s) and runs
separately.

-source .venv/bin/activate   # or: source venv/bin/activate
+source venv/bin/activate  # ALWAYS activate before running Python

-## TUI Architecture (ui-tui + tui_gateway)
-
-The TUI is a full replacement for the classic (prompt_toolkit) CLI, activated via `hermes --tui` or `HERMES_TUI=1`.
-
-### Process Model
-
-```
-hermes --tui
-  └─ Node (Ink)  ──stdio JSON-RPC──  Python (tui_gateway)
-       │                                  └─ AIAgent + tools + sessions
-       └─ renders transcript, composer, prompts, activity
-```
-
-TypeScript owns the screen. Python owns sessions, tools, model calls, and slash command logic.
-
-### Transport
-
-Newline-delimited JSON-RPC over stdio. Requests from Ink, events from Python. See `tui_gateway/server.py` for the full method/event catalog.
-
-### Key Surfaces
-
-| Surface | Ink component | Gateway method |
-|---------|---------------|----------------|
-| Chat streaming | `app.tsx` + `messageLine.tsx` | `prompt.submit` → `message.delta/complete` |
-| Tool activity | `thinking.tsx` | `tool.start/progress/complete` |
-| Approvals | `prompts.tsx` | `approval.respond` ← `approval.request` |
-| Clarify/sudo/secret | `prompts.tsx`, `maskedPrompt.tsx` | `clarify/sudo/secret.respond` |
-| Session picker | `sessionPicker.tsx` | `session.list/resume` |
-| Slash commands | Local handler + fallthrough | `slash.exec` → `_SlashWorker`, `command.dispatch` |
-| Completions | `useCompletion` hook | `complete.slash`, `complete.path` |
-| Theming | `theme.ts` + `branding.tsx` | `gateway.ready` with skin data |
-
-### Slash Command Flow
-
-1. Built-in client commands (`/help`, `/quit`, `/clear`, `/resume`, `/copy`, `/paste`, etc.) handled locally in `app.tsx`
-2. Everything else → `slash.exec` (runs in persistent `_SlashWorker` subprocess) → `command.dispatch` fallback
-
-### Dev Commands
-
-```bash
-cd ui-tui
-npm install       # first time
-npm run dev       # watch mode (rebuilds hermes-ink + tsx --watch)
-npm start         # production
-npm run build     # full build (hermes-ink + tsc)
-npm run type-check # typecheck only (tsc --noEmit)
-npm run lint      # eslint
-npm run fmt       # prettier
-npm test          # vitest
-```
-
-### TUI in the Dashboard (`hermes dashboard` → `/chat`)
-
-The dashboard embeds the real `hermes --tui` — **not** a rewrite.  See `hermes_cli/pty_bridge.py` + the `@app.websocket("/api/pty")` endpoint in `hermes_cli/web_server.py`.
-
-- Browser loads `web/src/pages/ChatPage.tsx`, which mounts xterm.js's `Terminal` with the WebGL renderer, `@xterm/addon-fit` for container-driven resize, and `@xterm/addon-unicode11` for modern wide-character widths.
-- `/api/pty?token=…` upgrades to a WebSocket; auth uses the same ephemeral `_SESSION_TOKEN` as REST, via query param (browsers can't set `Authorization` on WS upgrade).
-- The server spawns whatever `hermes --tui` would spawn, through `ptyprocess` (POSIX PTY — WSL works, native Windows does not).
-- Frames: raw PTY bytes each direction; resize via `\x1b[RESIZE:<cols>;<rows>]` intercepted on the server and applied with `TIOCSWINSZ`.
-
-**Do not re-implement the primary chat experience in React.** The main transcript, composer/input flow (including slash-command behavior), and PTY-backed terminal belong to the embedded `hermes --tui` — anything new you add to Ink shows up in the dashboard automatically. If you find yourself rebuilding the transcript or composer for the dashboard, stop and extend Ink instead.
-
-**Structured React UI around the TUI is allowed when it is not a second chat surface.** Sidebar widgets, inspectors, summaries, status panels, and similar supporting views (e.g. `ChatSidebar`, `ModelPickerDialog`, `ToolCall`) are fine when they complement the embedded TUI rather than replacing the transcript / composer / terminal. Keep their state independent of the PTY child's session and surface their failures non-destructively so the terminal pane keeps working unimpaired.

-## Plugins
-
-Hermes has two plugin surfaces. Both live under `plugins/` in the repo so
-repo-shipped plugins can be discovered alongside user-installed ones in
-`~/.hermes/plugins/` and pip-installed entry points.
-
-### General plugins (`hermes_cli/plugins.py` + `plugins/<name>/`)
-
-`PluginManager` discovers plugins from `~/.hermes/plugins/`, `./.hermes/plugins/`,
-and pip entry points. Each plugin exposes a `register(ctx)` function that
-can:
-
-- Register Python-callback lifecycle hooks:
-  `pre_tool_call`, `post_tool_call`, `pre_llm_call`, `post_llm_call`,
-  `on_session_start`, `on_session_end`
-- Register new tools via `ctx.register_tool(...)`
-- Register CLI subcommands via `ctx.register_cli_command(...)` — the
-  plugin's argparse tree is wired into `hermes` at startup so
-  `hermes <pluginname> <subcmd>` works with no change to `main.py`
-
-Hooks are invoked from `model_tools.py` (pre/post tool) and `run_agent.py`
-(lifecycle). **Discovery timing pitfall:** `discover_plugins()` only runs
-as a side effect of importing `model_tools.py`. Code paths that read plugin
-state without importing `model_tools.py` first must call `discover_plugins()`
-explicitly (it's idempotent).
-
-### Memory-provider plugins (`plugins/memory/<name>/`)
-
-Separate discovery system for pluggable memory backends. Current built-in
-providers include **honcho, mem0, supermemory, byterover, hindsight,
-holographic, openviking, retaindb**.
-
-Each provider implements the `MemoryProvider` ABC (see `agent/memory_provider.py`)
-and is orchestrated by `agent/memory_manager.py`. Lifecycle hooks include
-`sync_turn(turn_messages)`, `prefetch(query)`, `shutdown()`, and optional
-`post_setup(hermes_home, config)` for setup-wizard integration.
-
-**CLI commands via `plugins/memory/<name>/cli.py`:** if a memory plugin
-defines `register_cli(subparser)`, `discover_plugin_cli_commands()` finds
-it at argparse setup time and wires it into `hermes <plugin>`. The
-framework only exposes CLI commands for the **currently active** memory
-provider (read from `memory.provider` in config.yaml), so disabled
-providers don't clutter `hermes --help`.
-
-**Rule (Teknium, May 2026):** plugins MUST NOT modify core files
-(`run_agent.py`, `cli.py`, `gateway/run.py`, `hermes_cli/main.py`, etc.).
-If a plugin needs a capability the framework doesn't expose, expand the
-generic plugin surface (new hook, new ctx method) — never hardcode
-plugin-specific logic into core. PR #5295 removed 95 lines of hardcoded
-honcho argparse from `main.py` for exactly this reason.
-
-### Dashboard / context-engine / image-gen plugin directories
-
-`plugins/context_engine/`, `plugins/image_gen/`, `plugins/example-dashboard/`,
-etc. follow the same pattern (ABC + orchestrator + per-plugin directory).
-Context engines plug into `agent/context_engine.py`; image-gen providers
-into `agent/image_gen_provider.py`.

-## Skills
-
-Two parallel surfaces:
-
-- **`skills/`** — built-in skills shipped and loadable by default.
-  Organized by category directories (e.g. `skills/github/`, `skills/mlops/`).
-- **`optional-skills/`** — heavier or niche skills shipped with the repo but
-  NOT active by default. Installed explicitly via
-  `hermes skills install official/<category>/<skill>`. Adapter lives in
-  `tools/skills_hub.py` (`OptionalSkillSource`). Categories include
-  `autonomous-ai-agents`, `blockchain`, `communication`, `creative`,
-  `devops`, `email`, `health`, `mcp`, `migration`, `mlops`, `productivity`,
-  `research`, `security`, `web-development`.
-
-When reviewing skill PRs, check which directory they target — heavy-dep or
-niche skills belong in `optional-skills/`.
-
-### SKILL.md frontmatter
-
-Standard fields: `name`, `description`, `version`, `platforms`
-(OS-gating list: `[macos]`, `[linux, macos]`, ...),
-`metadata.hermes.tags`, `metadata.hermes.category`,
-`metadata.hermes.config` (config.yaml settings the skill needs — stored
-under `skills.config.<key>`, prompted during setup, injected at load time).

 ### DO NOT hardcode cross-tool references in schema descriptions
 Tool schema descriptions must not mention tools from other toolsets by name (e.g., `browser_navigate` saying "prefer web_search"). Those tools may be unavailable (missing API keys, disabled toolset), causing the model to hallucinate calls to non-existent tools. If a cross-reference is needed, add it dynamically in `get_tool_definitions()` in `model_tools.py` — see the `browser_navigate` / `execute_code` post-processing blocks for the pattern.
 
-### The gateway has TWO message guards — both must bypass approval/control commands
-When an agent is running, messages pass through two sequential guards:
-(1) **base adapter** (`gateway/platforms/base.py`) queues messages in
-`_pending_messages` when `session_key in self._active_sessions`, and
-(2) **gateway runner** (`gateway/run.py`) intercepts `/stop`, `/new`,
-`/queue`, `/status`, `/approve`, `/deny` before they reach
-`running_agent.interrupt()`. Any new command that must reach the runner
-while the agent is blocked (e.g. approval prompts) MUST bypass BOTH
-guards and be dispatched inline, not via `_process_message_background()`
-(which races session lifecycle).
-
-### Squash merges from stale branches silently revert recent fixes
-Before squash-merging a PR, ensure the branch is up to date with `main`
-(`git fetch origin main && git reset --hard origin/main` in the worktree,
-then re-apply the PR's commits). A stale branch's version of an unrelated
-file will silently overwrite recent fixes on main when squashed. Verify
-with `git diff HEAD~1..HEAD` after merging — unexpected deletions are a

-### Why the wrapper (and why the old "just call pytest" doesn't work)
-
-Five real sources of local-vs-CI drift the script closes:
-
-| | Without wrapper | With wrapper |
-|---|---|---|
-| Provider API keys | Whatever is in your env (auto-detects pool) | All `*_API_KEY`/`*_TOKEN`/etc. unset |
-| HOME / `~/.hermes/` | Your real config+auth.json | Temp dir per test |
-| Timezone | Local TZ (PDT etc.) | UTC |
-| Locale | Whatever is set | C.UTF-8 |
-| xdist workers | `-n auto` = all cores (20+ on a workstation) | `-n 4` matching CI |
-
-`tests/conftest.py` also enforces points 1-4 as an autouse fixture so ANY pytest
-invocation (including IDE integrations) gets hermetic behavior — but the wrapper
-is belt-and-suspenders.
-
-### Running without the wrapper (only if you must)
-
-If you can't use the wrapper (e.g. on Windows or inside an IDE that shells
-pytest directly), at minimum activate the venv and pass `-n 4`:
-
-```bash
-source .venv/bin/activate   # or: source venv/bin/activate
-python -m pytest tests/ -q -n 4
-```
-
-Worker count above 4 will surface test-ordering flakes that CI never sees.
-
 Always run the full suite before pushing changes.
-
-### Don't write change-detector tests
-
-A test is a **change-detector** if it fails whenever data that is **expected
-to change** gets updated — model catalogs, config version numbers,
-enumeration counts, hardcoded lists of provider models. These tests add no
-behavioral coverage; they just guarantee that routine source updates break
-CI and cost engineering time to "fix."
-
-**Do not write:**
-
-```python
-# catalog snapshot — breaks every model release
-assert "gemini-2.5-pro" in _PROVIDER_MODELS["gemini"]
-assert "MiniMax-M2.7" in models
-
-# config version literal — breaks every schema bump
-assert DEFAULT_CONFIG["_config_version"] == 21
-
-# enumeration count — breaks every time a skill/provider is added
-assert len(_PROVIDER_MODELS["huggingface"]) == 8
-```
-
-**Do write:**
-
-```python
-# behavior: does the catalog plumbing work at all?
-assert "gemini" in _PROVIDER_MODELS
-assert len(_PROVIDER_MODELS["gemini"]) >= 1
-
-# behavior: does migration bump the user's version to current latest?
-assert raw["_config_version"] == DEFAULT_CONFIG["_config_version"]
-
-# invariant: no plan-only model leaks into the legacy list
-assert not (set(moonshot_models) & coding_plan_only_models)
-
-# invariant: every model in the catalog has a context-length entry
-for m in _PROVIDER_MODELS["huggingface"]:
-    assert m.lower() in DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS_LOWER
-```
-
-The rule: if the test reads like a snapshot of current data, delete it. If
-it reads like a contract about how two pieces of data must relate, keep it.
-When a PR adds a new provider/model and you want a test, make the test
-assert the relationship (e.g. "catalog entries all have context lengths"),
-not the specific names.
-
-Reviewers should reject new change-detector tests; authors should convert
-them into invariants before re-requesting review.

 **The self-improving AI agent built by [Nous Research](https://nousresearch.com).** It's the only agent with a built-in learning loop — it creates skills from experience, improves them during use, nudges itself to persist knowledge, searches its own past conversations, and builds a deepening model of who you are across sessions. Run it on a $5 VPS, a GPU cluster, or serverless infrastructure that costs nearly nothing when idle. It's not tied to your laptop — talk to it from Telegram while it works on a cloud VM.

-
-**Release Date:** April 23, 2026

-
-> The Interface release — a full React/Ink rewrite of the interactive CLI, a pluggable transport architecture underneath every provider, native AWS Bedrock support, five new inference paths, a 17th messaging platform (QQBot), a dramatically expanded plugin surface, and GPT-5.5 via Codex OAuth.
-
-This release also folds in all the highlights deferred from v0.10.0 (which shipped only the Nous Tool Gateway) — so it covers roughly two weeks of work across the whole stack.

-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **New Ink-based TUI** — `hermes --tui` is now a full React/Ink rewrite of the interactive CLI, with a Python JSON-RPC backend (`tui_gateway`). Sticky composer, live streaming with OSC-52 clipboard support, stable picker keys, status bar with per-turn stopwatch and git branch, `/clear` confirm, light-theme preset, and a subagent spawn observability overlay. ~310 commits to `ui-tui/` + `tui_gateway/`. (@OutThisLife + Teknium)
-
-- **Transport ABC + Native AWS Bedrock** — Format conversion and HTTP transport were extracted from `run_agent.py` into a pluggable `agent/transports/` layer. `AnthropicTransport`, `ChatCompletionsTransport`, `ResponsesApiTransport`, and `BedrockTransport` each own their own format conversion and API shape. Native AWS Bedrock support via the Converse API ships on top of the new abstraction. ([#10549](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10549), [#13347](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13347), [#13366](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13366), [#13430](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13430), [#13805](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13805), [#13814](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13814) — @kshitijk4poor + Teknium)
-
-- **Five new inference paths** — Native NVIDIA NIM ([#11774](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11774)), Arcee AI ([#9276](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9276)), Step Plan ([#13893](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13893)), Google Gemini CLI OAuth ([#11270](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11270)), and Vercel ai-gateway with pricing + dynamic discovery ([#13223](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13223) — @jerilynzheng). Plus Gemini routed through the native AI Studio API for better performance ([#12674](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12674)).
-
-- **GPT-5.5 over Codex OAuth** — OpenAI's new GPT-5.5 reasoning model is now available through your ChatGPT Codex OAuth, with live model discovery wired into the model picker so new OpenAI releases show up without catalog updates. ([#14720](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14720))
-
-- **QQBot — 17th supported platform** — Native QQBot adapter via QQ Official API v2, with QR scan-to-configure setup wizard, streaming cursor, emoji reactions, and DM/group policy gating that matches WeCom/Weixin parity. ([#9364](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9364), [#11831](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11831))
-
-- **Plugin surface expanded** — Plugins can now register slash commands (`register_command`), dispatch tools directly (`dispatch_tool`), block tool execution from hooks (`pre_tool_call` can veto), rewrite tool results (`transform_tool_result`), transform terminal output (`transform_terminal_output`), ship image_gen backends, and add custom dashboard tabs. The bundled disk-cleanup plugin is opt-in by default as a reference implementation. ([#9377](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9377), [#10626](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10626), [#10763](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10763), [#10951](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10951), [#12929](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12929), [#12944](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12944), [#12972](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12972), [#13799](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13799), [#14175](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14175))
-
-- **`/steer` — mid-run agent nudges** — `/steer <prompt>` injects a note that the running agent sees after its next tool call, without interrupting the turn or breaking prompt cache. For when you want to course-correct an agent in-flight. ([#12116](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12116))
-
-- **Shell hooks** — Wire any shell script as a Hermes lifecycle hook (pre_tool_call, post_tool_call, on_session_start, etc.) without writing a Python plugin. ([#13296](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13296))
-
-- **Webhook direct-delivery mode** — Webhook subscriptions can now forward payloads straight to a platform chat without going through the agent — zero-LLM push notifications for alerting, uptime checks, and event streams. ([#12473](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/12473))
-
-- **Smarter delegation** — Subagents now have an explicit `orchestrator` role that can spawn their own workers, with configurable `max_spawn_depth` (default flat). Concurrent sibling subagents share filesystem state through a file-coordination layer so they don't clobber each other's edits. ([#13691](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13691), [#13718](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13718))
-
-- **Auxiliary models — configurable UI + main-model-first** — `hermes model` has a dedicated "Configure auxiliary models" screen for per-task overrides (compression, vision, session_search, title_generation). `auto` routing now defaults to the main model for side tasks across all users (previously aggregator users were silently routed to a cheap provider-side default). ([#11891](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11891), [#11900](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/11900))
-
-- **Dashboard plugin system + live theme switching** — The web dashboard is now extensible. Third-party plugins can add custom tabs, widgets, and views without forking. Paired with a live-switching theme system — themes now control colors, fonts, layout, and density — so users can hot-swap the dashboard look without a reload. Same theming discipline the CLI has, now on the web. ([#10951](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10951), [#10687](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10687), [#14725](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14725))
-
-- **Dashboard polish** — i18n (English + Chinese), react-router sidebar layout, mobile-responsive, Vercel deployment, real per-session API call tracking, and one-click update + gateway restart buttons. ([#9228](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9228), [#9370](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9370), [#9453](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/9453), [#10686](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/10686), [#13526](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/13526), [#14004](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/14004) — @austinpickett + @DeployFaith + Teknium)

-"""Unified removal contract for every credential source Hermes reads from.
-
-Hermes seeds its credential pool from many places:
-
-    env:<VAR>     — os.environ / ~/.hermes/.env
-    claude_code   — ~/.claude/.credentials.json
-    hermes_pkce   — ~/.hermes/.anthropic_oauth.json
-    device_code   — auth.json providers.<provider> (nous, openai-codex, ...)
-    qwen-cli      — ~/.qwen/oauth_creds.json
-    gh_cli        — gh auth token
-    config:<name> — custom_providers config entry
-    model_config  — model.api_key when model.provider == "custom"
-    manual        — user ran `hermes auth add`
-
-Each source has its own reader inside ``agent.credential_pool._seed_from_*``
-(which keep their existing shape — we haven't restructured them).  What we
-unify here is **removal**:
-
-    ``hermes auth remove <provider> <N>`` must make the pool entry stay gone.
-
-Before this module, every source had an ad-hoc removal branch in
-``auth_remove_command``, and several sources had no branch at all — so
-``auth remove`` silently reverted on the next ``load_pool()`` call for
-qwen-cli, nous device_code (partial), hermes_pkce, copilot gh_cli, and
-custom-config sources.
-
-Now every source registers a ``RemovalStep`` that does exactly three things
-in the same shape:
-
-    1. Clean up whatever externally-readable state the source reads from
-       (.env line, auth.json block, OAuth file, etc.)
-    2. Suppress the ``(provider, source_id)`` in auth.json so the
-       corresponding ``_seed_from_*`` branch skips the upsert on re-load
-    3. Return ``RemovalResult`` describing what was cleaned and any
-       diagnostic hints the user should see (shell-exported env vars,
-       external credential files we deliberately don't delete, etc.)
-
-Adding a new credential source is:
-    - wire up a reader branch in ``_seed_from_*`` (existing pattern)
-    - gate that reader behind ``is_source_suppressed(provider, source_id)``
-    - register a ``RemovalStep`` here
-
-No more per-source if/elif chain in ``auth_remove_command``.

-"""OpenAI-compatible facade over Google AI Studio's native Gemini API.
-
-Hermes keeps ``api_mode='chat_completions'`` for the ``gemini`` provider so the
-main agent loop can keep using its existing OpenAI-shaped message flow.
-This adapter is the transport shim that converts those OpenAI-style
-``messages[]`` / ``tools[]`` requests into Gemini's native
-``models/{model}:generateContent`` schema and converts the responses back.
-
-Why this exists
----------------
-Google's OpenAI-compatible endpoint has been brittle for Hermes's multi-turn
-agent/tool loop (auth churn, tool-call replay quirks, thought-signature
-requirements).  The native Gemini API is the canonical path and avoids the
-OpenAI-compat layer entirely.

-Image Generation Provider Registry

-The active provider is chosen by ``image_gen.provider`` in ``config.yaml``.

-2. Otherwise if a provider named ``fal`` is registered, use it (legacy

-"""Helpers for translating OpenAI-style tool schemas to Moonshot's schema subset.
-
-Moonshot (Kimi) accepts a stricter subset of JSON Schema than standard OpenAI
-tool calling.  Requests that violate it fail with HTTP 400:
-
-    tools.function.parameters is not a valid moonshot flavored json schema,
-    details: <...>
-
-Known rejection modes documented at
-https://forum.moonshot.ai/t/tool-calling-specification-violation-on-moonshot-api/102
-and MoonshotAI/kimi-cli#1595:
-
-1. Every property schema must carry a ``type``.  Standard JSON Schema allows
-   type to be omitted (the value is then unconstrained); Moonshot refuses.
-2. When ``anyOf`` is used, ``type`` must be on the ``anyOf`` children, not
-   the parent.  Presence of both causes "type should be defined in anyOf
-   items instead of the parent schema".
-
-The ``#/definitions/...`` → ``#/$defs/...`` rewrite for draft-07 refs is
-handled separately in ``tools/mcp_tool._normalize_mcp_input_schema`` so it
-applies at MCP registration time for all providers.

-Shell-script hooks bridge.
-
-Reads the ``hooks:`` block from ``cli-config.yaml``, prompts the user for
-consent on first use of each ``(event, command)`` pair, and registers
-callbacks on the existing plugin hook manager so every existing
-``invoke_hook()`` site dispatches to the configured shell scripts — with
-zero changes to call sites.
-
-Design notes
-------------
-* Python plugins and shell hooks compose naturally: both flow through
-  :func:`hermes_cli.plugins.invoke_hook` and its aggregators.  Python
-  plugins are registered first (via ``discover_and_load()``) so their
-  block decisions win ties over shell-hook blocks.
-* Subprocess execution uses ``shlex.split(os.path.expanduser(command))``
-  with ``shell=False`` — no shell injection footguns.  Users that need
-  pipes/redirection wrap their logic in a script.
-* First-use consent is gated by the allowlist under
-  ``~/.hermes/shell-hooks-allowlist.json``.  Non-TTY callers must pass
-  ``accept_hooks=True`` (resolved from ``--accept-hooks``,
-  ``HERMES_ACCEPT_HOOKS``, or ``hooks_auto_accept: true`` in config)
-  for registration to succeed without a prompt.
-* Registration is idempotent — safe to invoke from both the CLI entry
-  point (``hermes_cli/main.py``) and the gateway entry point
-  (``gateway/run.py``).
-

-
-```text
-apps/
-  gui/      # cross-platform app shell: dev Chrome shell now, Tauri native next
-  shared/   # runtime bundle notes/scripts used by Windows + macOS packaging
-```
-
-## Desktop Dev
-
-The backend-only GUI mode is:
-
-```bash
-hermes dashboard --gui
-```
-
-The fast GUI shell is:
-
-```powershell
-cd \\wsl$\Ubuntu\home\bb\hermes-agent\apps\gui
-npm run dev
-```
-
-The native Tauri shell is:
-
-```powershell
-cd \\wsl$\Ubuntu\home\bb\hermes-agent\apps\gui
-npm run dev:tauri
-```
-
-`--gui` implies the embedded TUI; do not pass `--tui` separately for GUI mode.
-
-## MVP Boundary
-
-Included:
-
-- bundled Python runtime
-- bundled Node/TUI runtime
-- CLI install to PATH
-- profile picker and first-run setup
-- dashboard health/reconnect state
-- tray controls
-- desktop notifications
-- Windows installer
-
-Deferred:
-
-- code signing
-- native self-updater
-- store distribution
-
-For MVP updates, the desktop UI should run the existing `hermes update` flow and
-surface progress/finish notifications.

-# Hermes GUI
-
-Cross-platform GUI shell for the Hermes dashboard.
-
-## Fast Dev Shell
-
-This gets a GUI window on Windows/WSL today by launching Chrome in app mode:
-
-```bash
-cd apps/gui
-npm run dev
-```
-
-It starts `hermes dashboard --gui --no-open --port 9120`, waits for
-`/api/health`, then opens a standalone app window at `http://127.0.0.1:9120`.
-
-## Native Shell
-
-The native Tauri shell is still scaffolded:
-
-```bash
-cd apps/gui
-npm run dev:tauri
-```
-
-From Windows PowerShell on a `\\wsl$` path, use PowerShell `npm`, not
-`npm.cmd`:
-
-```powershell
-Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope Process -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Force
-cd \\wsl$\Ubuntu\home\bb\hermes-agent\apps\gui
-npm run dev:tauri
-```
-
-`npm.cmd` goes through `cmd.exe`, and `cmd.exe` cannot use UNC paths as the
-current directory.
-
-If `npm run` still falls through `cmd.exe`, bypass npm entirely:
-
-```powershell
-\\wsl$\Ubuntu\home\bb\hermes-agent\apps\gui\dev-tauri.ps1
-```
-
-The launcher builds into `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Hermes\cargo-target\gui` instead of
-`\\wsl$` because Windows Cargo incremental locks do not work reliably on UNC
-WSL filesystems.
-
-In dev, either start Hermes yourself:
-
-```bash
-hermes dashboard --gui --no-open --port 9120
-```
-
-or let the native shell start it. The tray menu owns:
-
-- Open Hermes
-- Open in Browser
-- Restart Hermes Runtime
-- Quit Hermes
-
-The native shell reuses a healthy GUI runtime when one is already running.
-Otherwise it picks the first free port from `9120..9139`, passes that port into
-the WSL/backend process, and navigates the Tauri window there. Set
-`HERMES_GUI_PORT` to force a starting port.
-
-## Fresh Install Emulation
-
-Use an isolated Hermes home without touching your real `~/.hermes`:
-
-```powershell
-powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File \\wsl$\Ubuntu\home\bb\hermes-agent\apps\gui\dev-tauri.ps1 -Fresh
-```
-
-Reset that disposable home and run again:
-
-```powershell
-powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File \\wsl$\Ubuntu\home\bb\hermes-agent\apps\gui\dev-tauri.ps1 -Fresh -ResetFresh
-```
-
-Fresh mode stores state in `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Hermes\fresh-install-home` and starts
-from port `9140` so it does not collide with your normal GUI dev session.
-
-Set `HERMES_GUI_MIN_SPLASH_MS` only when debugging the startup screen; default
-startup is instant once the backend is healthy.
-
-## Boundary
-
-GUI owns:
-
-- app shell/window
-- startup state
-- sidecar process lifecycle
-- future tray/notifications/installers
-
-Hermes owns:
-
-- dashboard UI
-- auth/session token
-- profiles/config/env
-- TUI/PTT chat bridge
-- tools/skills/gateway

-# GUI Runtime Contract
-
-The GUI shell starts Hermes with a small, explicit environment.
-
-## Environment
-
-```text
-HERMES_GUI=1
-HERMES_WEB_DIST=<bundled web dist>
-HERMES_TUI_DIR=<bundled ui-tui dir>
-```
-
-The native shell uses `127.0.0.1:9120` as its initial GUI port during dev.
-Bundled builds should keep the port private to the local machine and expose it
-through `/api/health` and `/api/runtime`.
-
-The shell should also pass the selected profile through the normal Hermes CLI
-profile mechanism once the profile picker is wired.
-
-## Ports
-
-Use `127.0.0.1` only. Start with the GUI default port, then fall back to a
-free port if occupied. Show the chosen port in the tray menu.
-
-## User Data
-
-The installer owns app files. Hermes owns user state under `HERMES_HOME`.
-Uninstallers must not delete user state unless the user explicitly asks.
-
-## Update Model
-
-MVP does not use Tauri's native updater. GUI runs `hermes update`, tails the
-action log, notifies completion, then offers to restart the runtime.

+# Hermes Agent — ACP (Agent Client Protocol) Setup Guide
+
+Hermes Agent supports the **Agent Client Protocol (ACP)**, allowing it to run as
+a coding agent inside your editor. ACP lets your IDE send tasks to Hermes, and
+Hermes responds with file edits, terminal commands, and explanations — all shown
+natively in the editor UI.
+
+---
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Hermes Agent installed and configured (`hermes setup` completed)
+- An API key / provider set up in `~/.hermes/.env` or via `hermes login`
+- Python 3.11+
+
+Install the ACP extra:
+
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[acp]"
+```
+
+---
+
+## VS Code Setup
+
+### 1. Install the ACP Client extension
+
+Open VS Code and install **ACP Client** from the marketplace:
+
+- Press `Ctrl+Shift+X` (or `Cmd+Shift+X` on macOS)
+- Search for **"ACP Client"**
+- Click **Install**
+
+Or install from the command line:
+
+```bash
+code --install-extension anysphere.acp-client
+```
+
+### 2. Configure settings.json
+
+Open your VS Code settings (`Ctrl+,` → click the `{}` icon for JSON) and add:
+
+```json
+{
+  "acpClient.agents": [
+    {
+      "name": "hermes-agent",
+      "registryDir": "/path/to/hermes-agent/acp_registry"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+Replace `/path/to/hermes-agent` with the actual path to your Hermes Agent
+installation (e.g. `~/.hermes/hermes-agent`).
+
+Alternatively, if `hermes` is on your PATH, the ACP Client can discover it
+automatically via the registry directory.
+
+### 3. Restart VS Code
+
+After configuring, restart VS Code. You should see **Hermes Agent** appear in
+the ACP agent picker in the chat/agent panel.
+
+---
+
+## Zed Setup
+
+Zed has built-in ACP support.
+
+### 1. Configure Zed settings
+
+Open Zed settings (`Cmd+,` on macOS or `Ctrl+,` on Linux) and add to your
+`settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agent_servers": {
+    "hermes-agent": {
+      "type": "custom",
+      "command": "hermes",
+      "args": ["acp"],
+    },
+  },
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Restart Zed
+
+Hermes Agent will appear in the agent panel. Select it and start a conversation.
+
+---
+
+## JetBrains Setup (IntelliJ, PyCharm, WebStorm, etc.)
+
+### 1. Install the ACP plugin
+
+- Open **Settings** → **Plugins** → **Marketplace**
+- Search for **"ACP"** or **"Agent Client Protocol"**
+- Install and restart the IDE
+
+### 2. Configure the agent
+
+- Open **Settings** → **Tools** → **ACP Agents**
+- Click **+** to add a new agent
+- Set the registry directory to your `acp_registry/` folder:
+  `/path/to/hermes-agent/acp_registry`
+- Click **OK**
+
+### 3. Use the agent
+
+Open the ACP panel (usually in the right sidebar) and select **Hermes Agent**.
+
+---
+
+## What You Will See
+
+Once connected, your editor provides a native interface to Hermes Agent:
+
+### Chat Panel
+A conversational interface where you can describe tasks, ask questions, and
+give instructions. Hermes responds with explanations and actions.
+
+### File Diffs
+When Hermes edits files, you see standard diffs in the editor. You can:
+- **Accept** individual changes
+- **Reject** changes you don't want
+- **Review** the full diff before applying
+
+### Terminal Commands
+When Hermes needs to run shell commands (builds, tests, installs), the editor
+shows them in an integrated terminal. Depending on your settings:
+- Commands may run automatically
+- Or you may be prompted to **approve** each command
+
+### Approval Flow
+For potentially destructive operations, the editor will prompt you for
+approval before Hermes proceeds. This includes:
+- File deletions
+- Shell commands
+- Git operations
+
+---
+
+## Configuration
+
+Hermes Agent under ACP uses the **same configuration** as the CLI:
+
+- **API keys / providers**: `~/.hermes/.env`
+- **Agent config**: `~/.hermes/config.yaml`
+- **Skills**: `~/.hermes/skills/`
+- **Sessions**: `~/.hermes/state.db`
+
+You can run `hermes setup` to configure providers, or edit `~/.hermes/.env`
+directly.
+
+### Changing the model
+
+Edit `~/.hermes/config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+model: openrouter/nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b
+```
+
+Or set the `HERMES_MODEL` environment variable.
+
+### Toolsets
+
+ACP sessions use the curated `hermes-acp` toolset by default. It is designed for editor workflows and intentionally excludes things like messaging delivery, cronjob management, and audio-first UX features.
+
+---
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Agent doesn't appear in the editor
+
+1. **Check the registry path** — make sure the `acp_registry/` directory path
+   in your editor settings is correct and contains `agent.json`.
+2. **Check `hermes` is on PATH** — run `which hermes` in a terminal. If not
+   found, you may need to activate your virtualenv or add it to PATH.
+3. **Restart the editor** after changing settings.
+
+### Agent starts but errors immediately
+
+1. Run `hermes doctor` to check your configuration.
+2. Check that you have a valid API key: `hermes status`
+3. Try running `hermes acp` directly in a terminal to see error output.
+
+### "Module not found" errors
+
+Make sure you installed the ACP extra:
+
+```bash
+pip install -e ".[acp]"
+```
+
+### Slow responses
+
+- ACP streams responses, so you should see incremental output. If the agent
+  appears stuck, check your network connection and API provider status.
+- Some providers have rate limits. Try switching to a different model/provider.
+
+### Permission denied for terminal commands
+
+If the editor blocks terminal commands, check your ACP Client extension
+settings for auto-approval or manual-approval preferences.
+
+### Logs
+
+Hermes logs are written to stderr when running in ACP mode. Check:
+- VS Code: **Output** panel → select **ACP Client** or **Hermes Agent**
+- Zed: **View** → **Toggle Terminal** and check the process output
+- JetBrains: **Event Log** or the ACP tool window
+
+You can also enable verbose logging:
+
+```bash
+HERMES_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG hermes acp
+```
