fix(model): preserve custom endpoint credentials and accept cloud models not in /v1/models

When switching models on a custom endpoint (ollama-launch):
- Same-provider switches no longer re-resolve credentials (fixes base_url
  being lost for 'custom' provider on subsequent switches)
- Named providers (ollama-launch) are resolved via user_providers so
  switch_model can find their base_url from config
- Models not in the /v1/models probe but present in the user's saved
  provider config are accepted with a warning instead of rejected
- CLI /model and TUI /model both pass user_providers/custom_providers
  to switch_model so the config model list is available for validation

Closes #15088

-> The Curator release — Hermes Agent now maintains itself. An autonomous background Curator grades, prunes, and consolidates your skill library on its own schedule. The self-improvement loop that reviews what to save got a substantial upgrade. Four new inference providers, a 18th messaging platform, a 19th via Teams plugin, native Spotify + Google Meet integrations, ComfyUI and TouchDesigner-MCP moved from optional to bundled-by-default, and a ~57% cut to visible TUI cold start.

-## ✨ Highlights
-
-- **Autonomous Curator** — `hermes curator` runs as a background agent on the gateway's cron ticker (7-day cycle default). It grades your skill library, consolidates related skills, prunes dead ones, and writes per-run reports to `logs/curator/run.json` + `REPORT.md`. Archived skills are classified consolidated-vs-pruned via model + heuristic. Defense-in-depth gates protect bundled/hub skills from mutation. Unified under `auxiliary.curator` — pick the curator's model in `hermes model`, manage it from the dashboard. `hermes curator status` ranks skills by usage (most-used / least-used). ([#17277](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17277), [#17307](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17307), [#17941](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17941), [#17868](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17868), [#18033](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/18033))
-
-- **Self-improvement loop — substantially upgraded** — The background review fork (the core of Hermes' self-improvement: after each turn it decides what memories/skills to save or update) is now class-first (rubric-based rather than free-form), active-update biased (prefers the skill the agent just loaded), handles `references/`/`templates/` sub-files, and properly inherits the parent's live runtime (provider, model, credentials actually propagate). Restricted to memory + skills toolsets so it can't sprawl. Memory providers shut down cleanly. Prior-turn tool messages excluded from the summary so the fork sees a clean context. ([#16026](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16026), [#17213](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17213), [#16099](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16099), [#16569](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16569), [#16204](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16204), [#15057](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15057))

-
-- **`hermes -z` one-shot mode + `hermes update --check`** — non-interactive `hermes -z <prompt>` with `--model`/`--provider`/`HERMES_INFERENCE_MODEL`. `hermes update --check` preflight. Opt-in pre-update HERMES_HOME backup. ([#15702](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15702), [#15704](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15704), [#15841](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15841), [#16539](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16539), [#16566](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16566))

-
-- **Remote model catalog manifest** — OpenRouter + Nous Portal model catalogs are now pulled from a remote manifest so new models show up without a release. ([#16033](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16033))
-
-- **Native multimodal image routing** — images now route based on the model's actual vision capability rather than provider defaults. ([#16506](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16506))
-
-- **Gateway media parity** — native multi-image sending across Telegram, Discord, Slack, Mattermost, Email, and Signal; centralized audio routing with FLAC support + Telegram document fallback. ([#17909](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17909), [#17833](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17833))
-
-- **TUI catches up to (and past) the classic CLI** — LaTeX rendering (@austinpickett), `/reload` .env hot-reload, pluggable busy-indicator styles (@OutThisLife, #13610), opt-in auto-resume of last session, expanded light-terminal auto-detection, session delete from `/resume` picker with `d`, modified mouse-wheel line scroll, and a `/mouse` toggle that kills ConPTY's phantom mouse injection (@kevin-ho). ([#17175](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17175), [#17286](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17286), [#17150](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17150), [#17130](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17130), [#17113](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17113), [#17668](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17668), [#17669](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17669), [#15488](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15488))

([#16917](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16917), [#17754](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17754))
-
-- **TTS provider registry + Piper local TTS** — pluggable `tts.providers.<name>` registry; Piper ships as a native local TTS provider. (Closes #8508.) ([#17843](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17843), [#17885](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17885))
-
-- **Vercel Sandbox backend** — Vercel sandboxes as an execute_code/terminal backend (@kshitijk4poor). ([#17445](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17445))
-
-- **Secret redaction off by default** — default flipped to off. Prevents the long-standing patch-corruption incidents where fake secret-shaped substrings mangled tool outputs. Opt in via `redaction.enabled: true` when you need it. ([#16794](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16794))
-
-- **Cold-start performance** — visible TUI cold start cut **~57%** via lazy agent init (@OutThisLife), lazy imports of OpenAI / Anthropic / Firecrawl / account_usage, mtime-cached `load_config()`, memoized `get_tool_definitions()` with TTL-cached `check_fn` results, precompiled dangerous-command patterns. ([#17190](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17190), [#17046](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17046), [#17041](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17041), [#17098](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17098), [#17206](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17206))
-
-- **Configurable prompt cache TTL** — `prompt_caching.cache_ttl` (5m default, 1h opt-in — cost savings for bursty sessions that keep cache warm). Salvage of #12659. ([#15065](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15065))

-## 🧠 Autonomous Curator & Self-Improvement Loop
-
-### Curator — autonomous skill maintenance
-- **`hermes curator` as a background agent** — runs on the gateway's cron ticker, 7-day cycle by default, umbrella-first prompt, inherits parent config, unbounded iterations ([#17277](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17277) — issue #7816)
-- **Per-run reports** — `logs/curator/run.json` + `REPORT.md` per cycle ([#17307](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17307))
-- **Consolidated vs pruned classification** — archived skills split with model + heuristic ([#17941](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17941))

-- **Unified under `auxiliary.curator`** — pick the model in `hermes model`, configure from the dashboard ([#17868](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17868))
-- **Documentation** — dedicated curator feature page on the docs site ([#17563](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17563))

-- Fix: `bump_use()` wired into skill invocation + preload + skill_view (salvage #17782) ([#17932](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17932))
-
-### Self-improvement loop (background review fork)
-- **Class-first skill-review prompt** — rubric-based grading rather than free-form "should this update" ([#16026](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16026))
-- **Active-update bias** — prefers updating skills the agent just loaded, handles `references/` + `templates/` sub-files ([#17213](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/17213))
-- **Fork inherits parent's live runtime** — provider, model, credentials actually propagate now ([#16099](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16099))
-- **Scoped toolsets** — review fork restricted to memory + skills (no shell, no web) ([#16569](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16569))
-- **Clean shutdown** — background review memory providers exit properly (salvage #15289) ([#16204](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/16204))
-- **Clean context** — prior-history tool messages excluded from review summary (salvage #14967) ([#15057](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/15057))

-  - ``.archive/`` (so rollback restores previously-archived skills too)
-  - ``.curator_state`` (so rolling back also restores the last-run-at

-"""Routing helpers for inbound user-attached images.
-
-Two modes:
-
-  native  — attach images as OpenAI-style ``image_url`` content parts on the
-            user turn. Provider adapters (Anthropic, Gemini, Bedrock, Codex,
-            OpenAI chat.completions) already translate these into their
-            vendor-specific multimodal formats.
-
-  text    — run ``vision_analyze`` on each image up-front and prepend the
-            description to the user's text. The model never sees the pixels;
-            it only sees a lossy text summary. This is the pre-existing
-            behaviour and still the right choice for non-vision models.
-
-The decision is made once per message turn by :func:`decide_image_input_mode`.
-It reads ``agent.image_input_mode`` from config.yaml (``auto`` | ``native``
-| ``text``, default ``auto``) and the active model's capability metadata.
-
-In ``auto`` mode:
-  - If the user has explicitly configured ``auxiliary.vision.provider``
-    (i.e. not ``auto`` and not empty), we assume they want the text pipeline
-    regardless of the main model — they've opted in to a specific vision
-    backend for a reason (cost, quality, local-only, etc.).
-  - Otherwise, if the active model reports ``supports_vision=True`` in its
-    models.dev metadata, we attach natively.
-  - Otherwise (non-vision model, no explicit override), we fall back to text.
-
-This keeps ``vision_analyze`` surfaced as a tool in every session — skills
-and agent flows that chain it (browser screenshots, deeper inspection of
-URL-referenced images, style-gating loops) keep working. The routing only
-affects *how user-attached images on the current turn* are presented to the
-main model.

-    The one-shot ``sanitize_context`` regex cannot survive chunk boundaries:

-    Nous Portal multiplexes multiple upstream providers (DeepSeek, Kimi,

-
-      (a) The caller's own RPM / RPH / TPM / TPH bucket on Nous is
-          exhausted — a genuine rate limit that will last until the
-          bucket resets.
-      (b) The upstream provider is out of capacity for a specific model
-          — transient, clears in seconds, and has nothing to do with
-          the caller's quota on Nous.

-    Tripping the cross-session breaker on (b) blocks ALL Nous requests
-    (and all models, since Nous is one provider key) for minutes even
-    though the caller's account is healthy and a different model would
-    have worked.  That's the bug users hit when DeepSeek V4 Pro 429s
-    trigger a breaker that then blocks Kimi 2.6 and MiMo V2.5 Pro.

-         bucket (``remaining == 0`` with a reset window >= 60s) is
-         proof of (a).
-      2. The last-known-good rate-limit state captured by
-         ``_capture_rate_limits()`` on the previous successful
-         response.  If any bucket there was already near-exhausted with
-         a substantial reset window, the current 429 is almost
-         certainly (a) continuing from that condition.
-
-    If neither signal fires, we treat the 429 as (b): fail the single

-    as pruned), any cron job that lists ``X`` in its ``skills`` field will
-    fail to load ``X`` at run time — the scheduler logs a warning and
-    skips the skill, so the job runs without the instructions it was
-    scheduled to follow. See cron/scheduler.py where ``skill_view`` is
-    called per skill name.
-
-    This function repairs cron jobs in-place:
-
-    - A skill listed in ``consolidated`` is replaced with its umbrella
-      target (the ``into`` value). If the umbrella is already in the
-      job's skill list, the stale name is dropped without duplication.
-    - A skill listed in ``pruned`` is dropped outright — there is no
-      forwarding target.
-    - Ordering and other skills in the list are preserved.
-    - The legacy ``skill`` field is realigned via ``_apply_skill_fields``.
-
-    Args:
-        consolidated: mapping of ``old_skill_name -> umbrella_skill_name``.
-        pruned: list of skill names that were archived with no forwarding
-            target.
-
-    Returns a report dict::
-
-        {
-            "rewrites": [
-                {
-                    "job_id": ...,

-            "jobs_updated": N,
-            "jobs_scanned": M,
-        }
-
-    Best-effort: exceptions from loading/saving propagate to the caller so
-    tests can assert behaviour; the curator invocation site wraps this
-    call in a try/except so a failure here never breaks the curator.

-Platform Adapter Registry
-
-Allows platform adapters (built-in and plugin) to self-register so the gateway
-can discover and instantiate them without hardcoded if/elif chains.
-
-Built-in adapters continue to use the existing if/elif in _create_adapter()
-for now.  Plugin adapters register here via PluginContext.register_platform()
-and are looked up first -- if nothing is found the gateway falls through to
-the legacy code path.
-
-Usage (plugin side):
-
-    from gateway.platform_registry import platform_registry, PlatformEntry

-    platform_registry.register(PlatformEntry(
-        name="irc",

 # Adding a New Messaging Platform
 
-There are two ways to add a platform to the Hermes gateway:
-
-## Plugin Path (Recommended for Community/Third-Party)
-
-Create a plugin directory in `~/.hermes/plugins/` with a `PLUGIN.yaml` and
-`adapter.py`.  The adapter inherits from `BasePlatformAdapter` and registers
-via `ctx.register_platform()` in the `register(ctx)` entry point.  This
-requires **zero changes to core Hermes code**.
-
-The plugin system automatically handles: adapter creation, config parsing,
-user authorization, cron delivery, send_message routing, system prompt hints,
-status display, gateway setup, and more.
-
-See `plugins/platforms/irc/` for a complete reference implementation, and
-`website/docs/developer-guide/adding-platform-adapters.md` for the full
-plugin guide with code examples.
-
----
-
-## Built-in Path (Core Contributors Only)
-
-Checklist for integrating a platform directly into the Hermes core.
-Use this as a reference when building a built-in adapter — every item here
-is a real integration point. Missing any of them will cause broken
-functionality, missing features, or inconsistent behavior.

-"""Gateway runtime-metadata footer.
-
-Renders a compact footer showing runtime state (model, context %, cwd) and
-appends it to the FINAL message of an agent turn when enabled.  Off by default
-to keep replies minimal.

-Config (``~/.hermes/config.yaml``)::
-
-    display:
-      runtime_footer:
-        enabled: true                       # off by default
-        fields: [model, context_pct, cwd]   # order shown; drop any to hide
-
-Per-platform overrides live under ``display.platforms.<platform>.runtime_footer``.
-Users can toggle the global setting with ``/footer on|off`` from both the CLI
-and any gateway platform.
-
-The footer is appended to the final response text in ``gateway/run.py`` right
-before returning the response to the adapter send path — so it only lands on
-the final message a user sees, not on tool-progress updates or streaming
-partials.  When streaming is on and the final text has already been delivered
-piecemeal, the footer is sent as a separate trailing message via
-``send_trailing_footer()``.
