BUG-3 (high): /api/profile/delete missing RuntimeError catch. When
deleting the active profile while an agent was running, delete_profile_api()
called switch_profile('default') which raises RuntimeError('Cannot switch
profiles while agent is running'). This propagated to the 500 handler
giving the user 'Internal server error' with no context. Added the same
except RuntimeError -> 409 pattern that /api/profile/switch already uses.
INFO-1 (defense-in-depth): /api/profile/create had no server-side name
validation before delegating to hermes_cli.validate_profile_name. Added
server-side ^[a-z0-9][a-z0-9_-]{0,63}$ check, consistent with client-side
regex in submitProfileCreate(). Prevents path-traversal-ish names from
reaching hermes_cli even if the client-side guard is bypassed.
INFO-2 (defense-in-depth): clone_from parameter was passed directly to
hermes_cli with no validation. Applied the same name regex check to
clone_from before delegating.
BUG-11 (low): toggleProfileDropdown() and toggleWsDropdown() could both
be open simultaneously. Added cross-dropdown close calls: opening the
profile dropdown now closes the workspace dropdown, and vice versa.
Tests: 415 passed, 0 failed.
Add full profile management to the web UI, matching the hermes-agent CLI
profile system. Profiles are isolated HERMES_HOME instances with their own
config, skills, memory, cron, and API keys.
Backend: new api/profiles.py wrapping hermes_cli.profiles, dynamic config
reloading, 5 new API endpoints, profile-aware path resolution, HERMES_HOME
env save/restore in streaming, module-level cache patching for skills_tool
and cron/jobs.
Frontend: profile chip in topbar with dropdown, Profiles sidebar panel with
CRUD UI, boot-time profile fetch, cascade refresh on switch.

The previous logic treated a blank password field as intent to clear auth,
which meant saving any other setting (model, send key, etc.) would silently
disable password protection.
New behavior:
- Blank password field + Save Settings = no change to auth (do nothing)
- Password field with content + Save = set/change password (unchanged)
- 'Disable Auth' button = explicit confirmation-gated clear (new)
UI changes:
- index.html: updated description text to 'Leave blank to keep current
setting'; added 'Disable Auth' button (amber, shown only when auth active)
- panels.js: saveSettings() skips password logic entirely when field is blank;
loadSettingsPanel() shows/hides both btnDisableAuth and btnSignOut based on
auth_enabled; new disableAuth() function sends _clear_password:true after
confirm() prompt and hides both auth buttons on success
Server: no logic changes needed; _clear_password handling in save_settings()
is now only triggered by the explicit Disable Auth action.
Auth system (off by default, zero friction for localhost):
- New api/auth.py module: password hashing (SHA-256 + STATE_DIR salt),
signed HMAC session cookies (24h TTL), auth middleware
- Enable via HERMES_WEBUI_PASSWORD env var or Settings panel
- Minimal dark-themed login page at /login (self-contained HTML)
- POST /api/auth/login, /api/auth/logout, GET /api/auth/status
- Settings panel: "Access Password" field + "Sign Out" button
- password_hash added to settings.json (null = auth disabled)
Security hardening:
- Security headers on all responses: X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff,
X-Frame-Options: DENY, Referrer-Policy: same-origin
- POST body size limit: 20MB cap in read_body() to prevent DoS

Track A: Workspace breadcrumb navigation
- Breadcrumb path bar with clickable segments when inside subdirectories
- Up button in panel header for parent directory navigation
- S.currentDir state tracking; file ops stay in current directory
- New file/folder creation respects current subdirectory
Track B: Slash commands foundation
- New commands.js module (7th JS module) with command registry and parser
- Built-in commands: /help, /clear, /model, /workspace, /new
- Autocomplete dropdown on / input with arrow/tab/enter/escape navigation
- Unrecognized commands pass through to agent normally
Track C: Send key setting (closes#26)
- send_key added to settings defaults in api/config.py
- Settings panel dropdown: Enter (default) vs Ctrl/Cmd+Enter
- Keydown handler rewritten for autocomplete + send key preference
- Setting loaded on boot, persisted to settings.json
5 new tests, 242 total (219 passing, 22 pre-existing failures, 0 regressions).
