fix(tests): accept unavailable_models kwarg in _prompt_model_selection mock

fix(tests): fix update_check and telegram xdist failures
- test_update_check: replace patch("hermes_cli.banner.os.getenv") with monkeypatch.setenv("HERMES_HOME") — banner.py no longer imports os directly, it uses get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants. - test_telegram_conflict/approval_buttons: provide real exception classes for telegram.error mock (NetworkError, TimedOut, BadRequest) so the except clause in connect() doesn't fail with "catching classes that do not inherit from BaseException" when xdist pollutes sys.modules.

-# Hermes Agent v0.8.0 (v2026.4.8)
-
-**Release Date:** April 8, 2026
-
-> The intelligence release — background task auto-notifications, free MiMo v2 Pro on Nous Portal, live model switching across all platforms, self-optimized GPT/Codex guidance, native Google AI Studio, smart inactivity timeouts, approval buttons, MCP OAuth 2.1, and 209 merged PRs with 82 resolved issues.
-
---
-
-## ✨ Highlights
-
- **Background Process Auto-Notifications (`notify_on_complete`)** — Background tasks can now automatically notify the agent when they finish. Start a long-running process (AI model training, test suites, deployments, builds) and the agent gets notified on completion — no polling needed. The agent can keep working on other things and pick up results when they land. ([#5779](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5779))
-
- **Free Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro on Nous Portal** — Nous Portal now supports the free-tier Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro model for auxiliary tasks (compression, vision, summarization), with free-tier model gating and pricing display in model selection. ([#6018](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6018), [#5880](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5880))
-
- **Live Model Switching (`/model` Command)** — Switch models and providers mid-session from CLI, Telegram, Discord, Slack, or any gateway platform. Aggregator-aware resolution keeps you on OpenRouter/Nous when possible, with automatic cross-provider fallback when needed. Interactive model pickers on Telegram and Discord with inline buttons. ([#5181](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5181), [#5742](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5742))
-
- **Self-Optimized GPT/Codex Tool-Use Guidance** — The agent diagnosed and patched 5 failure modes in GPT and Codex tool calling through automated behavioral benchmarking, dramatically improving reliability on OpenAI models. Includes execution discipline guidance and thinking-only prefill continuation for structured reasoning. ([#6120](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6120), [#5414](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5414), [#5931](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5931))
-
- **Google AI Studio (Gemini) Native Provider** — Direct access to Gemini models through Google's AI Studio API. Includes automatic models.dev registry integration for real-time context length detection across any provider. ([#5577](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5577))
-
- **Inactivity-Based Agent Timeouts** — Gateway and cron timeouts now track actual tool activity instead of wall-clock time. Long-running tasks that are actively working will never be killed — only truly idle agents time out. ([#5389](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5389), [#5440](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5440))
-
- **Approval Buttons on Slack & Telegram** — Dangerous command approval via native platform buttons instead of typing `/approve`. Slack gets thread context preservation; Telegram gets emoji reactions for approval status. ([#5890](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5890), [#5975](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5975))
-
- **MCP OAuth 2.1 PKCE + OSV Malware Scanning** — Full standards-compliant OAuth for MCP server authentication, plus automatic malware scanning of MCP extension packages via the OSV vulnerability database. ([#5420](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5420), [#5305](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5305))
-
- **Centralized Logging & Config Validation** — Structured logging to `~/.hermes/logs/` (agent.log + errors.log) with the `hermes logs` command for tailing and filtering. Config structure validation catches malformed YAML at startup before it causes cryptic failures. ([#5430](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5430), [#5426](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5426))
-
- **Plugin System Expansion** — Plugins can now register CLI subcommands, receive request-scoped API hooks with correlation IDs, prompt for required env vars during install, and hook into session lifecycle events (finalize/reset). ([#5295](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5295), [#5427](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5427), [#5470](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5470), [#6129](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6129))
-
- **Matrix Tier 1 & Platform Hardening** — Matrix gets reactions, read receipts, rich formatting, and room management. Discord adds channel controls and ignored channels. Signal gets full MEDIA: tag delivery. Mattermost gets file attachments. Comprehensive reliability fixes across all platforms. ([#5275](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5275), [#5975](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5975), [#5602](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5602))
-
- **Security Hardening Pass** — Consolidated SSRF protections, timing attack mitigations, tar traversal prevention, credential leakage guards, cron path traversal hardening, and cross-session isolation. Terminal workdir sanitization across all backends. ([#5944](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5944), [#5613](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5613), [#5629](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5629))

-    Naming note — two distinct concepts, easily confused:
-      max_tokens     = OUTPUT token cap for a single response.
-                       Anthropic's API calls this "max_tokens" but it only
-                       limits the *output*.  Anthropic's own native SDK
-                       renamed it "max_output_tokens" for clarity.
-      context_length = TOTAL context window (input tokens + output tokens).
-                       The API enforces: input_tokens + max_tokens ≤ context_length.
-                       Stored on the ContextCompressor; reduced on overflow errors.
-
-    When *max_tokens* is None the model's native output ceiling is used
-    (e.g. 128K for Opus 4.6, 64K for Sonnet 4.6).
-
-    When *context_length* is provided and the model's native output ceiling
-    exceeds it (e.g. a local endpoint with an 8K window), the output cap is
-    clamped to context_length − 1.  This only kicks in for unusually small
-    context windows; for full-size models the native output cap is always
-    smaller than the context window so no clamping happens.
-    NOTE: this clamping does not account for prompt size — if the prompt is
-    large, Anthropic may still reject the request.  The caller must detect
-    "max_tokens too large given prompt" errors and retry with a smaller cap
-    (see parse_available_output_tokens_from_error + _ephemeral_max_output_tokens).
+    When *max_tokens* is None, the model's native output limit is used
+    (e.g. 128K for Opus 4.6, 64K for Sonnet 4.6).  If *context_length*
+    is provided, the effective limit is clamped so it doesn't exceed
+    the context window.

    When *is_oauth* is True, applies Claude Code compatibility transforms:
    system prompt prefix, tool name prefixing, and prompt sanitization.

    When *preserve_dots* is True, model name dots are not converted to hyphens
    (for Alibaba/DashScope anthropic-compatible endpoints: qwen3.5-plus).
-
-    When *base_url* points to a third-party Anthropic-compatible endpoint,
-    thinking block signatures are stripped (they are Anthropic-proprietary).

 # Hindsight Memory Provider

-Long-term memory with knowledge graph, entity resolution, and multi-strategy retrieval. Supports cloud, local embedded, and local external modes.
+Long-term memory with knowledge graph, entity resolution, and multi-strategy retrieval. Supports cloud and local (embedded) modes.

 ## Requirements

 - **Cloud:** API key from [ui.hindsight.vectorize.io](https://ui.hindsight.vectorize.io)
- **Local Embedded:** API key for a supported LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, OpenRouter, MiniMax, Ollama, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint). Embeddings and reranking run locally — no additional API keys needed.
- **Local External:** A running Hindsight instance (Docker or self-hosted) reachable over HTTP.
+- **Local:** API key for a supported LLM provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, Groq, MiniMax, or Ollama). Embeddings and reranking run locally — no additional API keys needed.

 ## Tools

 | Tool | Description |
@@ -60,40 +52,3 @@ When enabled, Hermes can:
 - store cleaned conversation turns after each completed response
 - ingest the full session on session end for richer graph updates
 - expose explicit tools for search, store, forget, and profile access
-
-## Profile-Scoped Containers
-
-Use `{identity}` in the `container_tag` to scope memories per Hermes profile:
-
-```json
-{
-  "container_tag": "hermes-{identity}"
-}
-```
-
-For a profile named `coder`, this resolves to `hermes-coder`. The default profile resolves to `hermes-default`. Without `{identity}`, all profiles share the same container.
-
-## Multi-Container Mode
-
-For advanced setups (e.g. OpenClaw-style multi-workspace), you can enable custom container tags so the agent can read/write across multiple named containers:
-
-```json
-{
-  "container_tag": "hermes",
-  "enable_custom_container_tags": true,
-  "custom_containers": ["project-alpha", "project-beta", "shared-knowledge"],
-  "custom_container_instructions": "Use project-alpha for coding tasks, project-beta for research, and shared-knowledge for team-wide facts."
-}
-```
-
-When enabled:
- `supermemory_search`, `supermemory_store`, `supermemory_forget`, and `supermemory_profile` accept an optional `container_tag` parameter
- The tag must be in the whitelist: primary container + `custom_containers`
- Automatic operations (turn sync, prefetch, memory write mirroring, session ingest) always use the **primary** container only
- Custom container instructions are injected into the system prompt

alt-glitch	8bbafdf3a6	fix(tests): fix update_check and telegram xdist failures - test_update_check: replace patch("hermes_cli.banner.os.getenv") with monkeypatch.setenv("HERMES_HOME") — banner.py no longer imports os directly, it uses get_hermes_home() from hermes_constants. - test_telegram_conflict/approval_buttons: provide real exception classes for telegram.error mock (NetworkError, TimedOut, BadRequest) so the except clause in connect() doesn't fail with "catching classes that do not inherit from BaseException" when xdist pollutes sys.modules.	2026-04-07 16:34:09 -07:00
alt-glitch	04ee0ec0bc	fix(tests): replace patch.dict with monkeypatch to prevent env var leaks under xdist patch.dict(os.environ) can leak TERMINAL_ENV across xdist workers, causing test_code_execution tests to hit the Modal remote path.	2026-04-07 16:30:22 -07:00
