* feat: /personality slash command with backend integration
Add /personality command to switch the agent's system prompt personality.
Hermes CLI supports personalities stored at ~/.hermes/personalities/<name>/SOUL.md.
Backend:
- GET /api/personalities: lists available personalities from the active
profile's personalities directory (reads first line of SOUL.md for desc)
- POST /api/personality/set: sets active personality on the session, reads
and validates the SOUL.md file exists, returns the prompt text
- streaming.py: injects personality prompt (SOUL.md content) as prefix to
the system_message when run_conversation is called
Frontend (commands.js):
- /personality with no args: lists available personalities as a local message
- /personality <name>: sets the personality with a toast confirmation
- /personality none|default|clear: removes the active personality
Session model: new 'personality' field (backward-compatible, defaults to None)
Closes#139

* fix: path traversal in personality name + case sensitivity
Security: personality name is now validated with regex ^[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9_-]{0,63}$
in both routes.py (POST /api/personality/set) and streaming.py (system
prompt injection). Defense-in-depth: resolve().relative_to() check ensures
the path stays inside the personalities directory even if regex is bypassed.
Also: removed toLowerCase() from frontend command handler so personality
names are case-preserved (filesystem may be case-sensitive).

* feat: /personality command — hardened, compact() fix, tests
Fixes on top of original PR:
- compact() was missing 'personality' field — UI couldn't know active
personality after page load. Added to Session.compact().
- GET /api/personalities: add symlink guard (is_symlink() skip) and
resolve() check — prevents reading SOUL.md from symlink targets
outside personalities dir.
- POST /api/personality/set: require() only checks session_id (not name)
so clearing with name='' works correctly instead of 400.
- POST /api/personality/set: add MAX_FILE_BYTES size cap on SOUL.md to
prevent unbounded context window consumption.
- POST /api/personality/set: return personality:null (not '') when cleared.
- streaming.py: same MAX_FILE_BYTES guard before prepending to system msg.
Added tests/test_sprint28.py: 11 tests for API round-trip, listing,
symlink guard, path traversal rejection, clear, size cap, persistence.
Tests pass in isolation; full-suite run has a test-isolation interaction
with shared server state across sprint tests (tracked as follow-up).

- Move `import html` to module top (was inside function body)
- Fix IndexError crash in /login when bot_name is empty string;
use `or 'Hermes'` fallback instead of .get() default which
doesn't guard against stored empty string
- Add server-side sanitization in POST /api/settings: strip + default
empty/whitespace bot_name to 'Hermes' before persisting
- Escape _bn initial char in ui.js innerHTML (esc() consistency)
- Add maxlength=64 to #settingsBotName input field
- Add tests/test_sprint27.py: 9 tests covering API round-trip,
empty/whitespace defaults, login page rendering, and XSS escaping
The login form used 'return doLogin(event)' in onsubmit, but doLogin is
async so it returns a Promise (truthy), which some browsers interpret as
'proceed with native form submit'. Changed to 'doLogin(event);return false'
and added an explicit onkeydown Enter handler on the password input as
belt-and-suspenders.

- api/updates.py: add _apply_lock to prevent concurrent stash/pull/pop
- static/boot.js: set check_for_updates:false on settings fetch failure
- static/panels.js: remove dead settingsWorkspace references (element removed from HTML)
- api/routes.py + static/boot.js: add ?test_updates=1 URL param for testing banner
without being behind on git (localhost-only simulate endpoint)
Shows a blue banner when the webui or hermes-agent git repos are behind
their upstream branches. One-click 'Update Now' button does stash, pull
--ff-only, stash pop, then reloads the page.
Backend (api/updates.py):
- _check_repo(): git fetch + rev-list count with 15s timeout
- check_for_updates(): 30-min server-side cache, thread-safe, skips
Docker (no .git dir)
- apply_update(): stash (if dirty), pull --ff-only, pop, invalidate cache
Routes:
- GET /api/updates/check -- returns cached {webui, agent} with behind count
- POST /api/updates/apply -- {target: 'webui'|'agent'}
Frontend:
- Blue banner (matches reconnect-banner pattern) with 'Later' / 'Update Now'
- Non-blocking boot check via fire-and-forget .then(), once per tab session
- sessionStorage guards prevent re-checking and re-showing after dismiss
Settings:
- 'Check for updates' checkbox (default: on) -- when off, no git operations
- Removed 'Default Workspace' dropdown to keep settings panel compact
Performance:
- Server cache: git fetch at most 2x/hour regardless of client count
- sessionStorage: one check per browser tab session
- _check_in_progress flag prevents concurrent fetch storms
- Fire-and-forget: does NOT block the boot sequence

WebUI sessions were invisible to 'hermes /insights' because the WebUI
bypasses the gateway and calls AIAgent.run_conversation() directly,
never writing to state.db.
New 'Sync usage to /insights' setting (default: off) that mirrors
WebUI session metadata (tokens, cost, model, title) into state.db
after each turn. Uses absolute token counts to avoid double-counting.
Components:
- api/state_sync.py: bridge module with sync_session_start() and
sync_session_usage(). Uses ensure_session() (idempotent) and
update_token_counts(absolute=True). All wrapped in try/except.
- api/config.py: new 'sync_to_insights' boolean setting
- api/streaming.py: calls sync_session_usage() after s.save()
- api/routes.py: same for the non-streaming chat path
- Settings UI: checkbox toggle with description
Default off because:
- Writing to state.db while CLI/gateway also writes could cause
WAL lock contention on busy systems
- Some users may not want WebUI sessions in /insights stats

The delete endpoint only removed sessions from the WebUI JSON store,
silently no-oping on CLI sessions (which live in state.db). The trash
button showed 'Conversation deleted' but the session reappeared on
next refresh.
Fix: after the existing WebUI delete, also call delete_cli_session()
which removes the session + messages from state.db. Wrapped in
try/except so WebUI-only sessions still delete normally.
New delete_cli_session() in api/models.py mirrors the existing
get_cli_session_messages() pattern for state.db access.

When the workspace root is a git repo, a badge in the panel header
shows the current branch name, dirty file count, and ahead/behind
status. Updates on every root directory load.
Backend:
- git_info_for_workspace() in api/workspace.py runs lightweight git
commands (rev-parse, status --porcelain, rev-list) with 3s timeout
- New GET /api/git-info endpoint returns branch, dirty count, modified,
untracked, ahead, behind
Frontend:
- _refreshGitBadge() in workspace.js fetches git info on root load
- Git badge element in panel header shows branch + status
- Badge turns gold when workspace has uncommitted changes

When the user's config uses a non-Anthropic provider with an
Anthropic-compatible endpoint (e.g. MiniMax at
https://api.minimax.io/anthropic), chat in the WebUI fails silently
with APIConnectionError on every request, while the hermes CLI and
messaging gateway work fine with the same config.
Root cause: both api/routes.py and api/streaming.py constructed
AIAgent using only (model, provider, base_url) from
resolve_model_provider() and never passed api_key. When the base URL
ends in /anthropic, AIAgent uses the anthropic_messages adapter, but
only falls back to ANTHROPIC_TOKEN when provider == "anthropic" (a
safety check to avoid leaking Anthropic credentials to third parties).
For MiniMax and similar providers the effective key becomes "", and
the auth failure surfaces as a generic "Connection error" after three
retries.
The CLI and gateway resolve the key via
hermes_cli.runtime_provider.resolve_runtime_provider(), which reads
MINIMAX_API_KEY (and similar) from ~/.hermes/.env. This patch does the
same before creating the AIAgent in both chat paths.
Fixes#77
The webui stores display-only fields on messages (attachments, timestamp,
_ts) for UI rendering. These leaked into the conversation_history passed
to AIAgent.run_conversation(). Most providers ignore unknown fields, but
Z.AI/GLM tries to deserialize 'attachments' as its native ChatAttachments
type, causing HTTP 400 on every subsequent message after an image upload.
Fix: _sanitize_messages_for_api() creates a clean copy with only
API-standard keys (role, content, tool_calls, tool_call_id, name,
refusal) before passing to run_conversation(). Applied to both the
streaming path (streaming.py) and non-streaming path (routes.py).

Adds a server-side boolean setting (default: false) that controls whether
CLI sessions from state.db appear in the sidebar. Off by default so the
sidebar is clean until the user explicitly opts in.
- api/config.py: add show_cli_sessions to _SETTINGS_DEFAULTS and _SETTINGS_BOOL_KEYS
- api/routes.py: gate get_cli_sessions() call on the setting at request time
- static/index.html: checkbox in settings panel with description
- static/panels.js: load/save checkbox, refresh session list on save
- static/boot.js: load on startup alongside send_key and show_token_usage

Read CLI sessions from the agent's state.db and surface them in the
WebUI sidebar alongside local sessions, with read-only display and
import-on-click to avoid data duplication.
Key changes:
- get_cli_sessions(): reads sessions list via parameterized SQL,
wrapped in sqlite3 context manager (no connection leaks)
- get_cli_session_messages(): reads messages for a CLI session
via parameterized SQL, also context-managed
- GET /api/sessions: merges WebUI + CLI sessions with dedup
(WebUI takes priority on same session_id)
- GET /api/session: falls back to CLI store if not a WebUI session
- POST /api/session/import_cli: imports a CLI session into the
WebUI store (idempotent, no duplicates on re-import)
- Imported sessions use get_last_workspace() for the workspace field
(not a hardcoded string) and carry the active profile tag
- CSS: .cli-session with ::after 'cli' indicator (no theme changes)
Fixes review feedback:
- SQLite connections use 'with' context managers (no leaks)
- Workspace uses real path via get_last_workspace()
- Profile awareness via api.profiles.get_active_profile_name()
- Parameterized SQL queries throughout (no injection risk)
- Graceful fallback when sqlite3 or state.db is missing
- routes.py: reject glob wildcards (* ? [ ]) in skill name param to
prevent rglob wildcard injection when serving linked files
- panels.js: replace inline onclick+esc() with data-* attributes and
addEventListener for skill tag removal and linked-file clicks;
esc() is HTML-safe but not JS-safe -- apostrophes in names caused
JS syntax errors and _cronSelectedSkills array corruption
- ui.js: fix _fmtTokens(null/undefined) returning 'null'/'undefined'
by guarding with (!n||n<0) -> '0'; add data-role attribute to msg-row
elements so usage badge correctly targets the last assistant row
instead of the last row regardless of speaker
- tests: rename test_sprint24.py -> test_sprint23.py (wrong sprint #);
add 3 new tests: path traversal rejection, wildcard name rejection,
cron create with skills; strengthen existing tests to assert field
presence explicitly (was using .get(field, 0)==0 which never caught
a missing field)
Track A: Token/cost display
- Read agent usage attrs (session_prompt_tokens, session_completion_tokens,
session_estimated_cost_usd) after run_conversation in streaming.py
- Add input_tokens, output_tokens, estimated_cost fields to Session model
- Include usage in done SSE event payload
- Store usage on S.lastUsage in messages.js done handler
- Render usage badge below last assistant message (input/output/cost)
Track B: Subagent delegation cards
- Add subagent_progress to toolIcon map with shuffle emoji
- Special-case subagent_progress in buildToolCard: "Subagent" label,
strip double emoji from preview, add tool-card-subagent CSS class
- Indented border-left styling for subagent cards
- Clean delegate_task display name
Track C: Skill picker in cron create form
- Add skill search input + tag chips to cron create form HTML
- Skill picker JS in panels.js: search/filter, click-to-add tags,
remove tag chips, pre-fetch skill list on form open
- submitCronCreate sends skills array in POST body
- Skill picker dropdown + tag CSS
Track D: Skill linked files viewer
- Add file query param to /api/skills/content endpoint
- Serve linked files from skill directory with path traversal protection
- Ensure linked_files key always present in skill content response
- Render linked files section below SKILL.md content in preview panel
- openSkillFile function for viewing individual linked files
Track E: Bug fixes and code quality
- Expand Session.__init__ and compact() to readable multi-line format
- Remove inline import json as _j2 inside loop in streaming.py
- Fix tool_calls: capture args from assistant messages, skip unresolved names
- Store args snapshot in persisted tool_calls for reload display
6 new tests. Total: 421 (409 passing).

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.
Three security issues found during review:
1. password_hash exposed via GET /api/settings
load_settings() returned all fields including the stored hash.
Fix: strip password_hash from the response in routes.py.
2. password_hash directly settable via POST /api/settings
'password_hash' was in _SETTINGS_ALLOWED_KEYS, so an attacker
could POST {password_hash: 'X'} to hijack auth without knowing
the current password.
Fix: exclude password_hash from _SETTINGS_ALLOWED_KEYS.
(Use _set_password for the legitimate hash-and-store path.)
3. Security headers missing from /api/auth/login and /api/auth/logout
These endpoints built their responses manually (bypassing j()),
so they omitted X-Content-Type-Options etc.
Fix: call _security_headers() before end_headers() on both.
Tests updated: renamed test to assert key absent (not just None),
added new test verifying direct password_hash POST is blocked.
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

- resolve_model_provider: fix regression where OpenRouter model IDs like
openai/gpt-5.4-mini had their prefix stripped, causing AIAgent to look
for OPENAI_API_KEY (direct API) instead of routing through OpenRouter.
All chats returned Connection lost for OpenRouter users. Fix: only strip
prefix and use direct-API when config.provider explicitly matches that
provider; pass full provider/model string through for openrouter.
- Project name: cap at 128 chars, reject empty after strip on create/rename
- Project color: validate ^#[0-9a-fA-F]{3,8}$ to prevent CSS injection
via dot.style.background in sessions.js
- Remove 2 redundant sys.path.insert() calls in cron handlers
Tests: 214 passed, 23 pre-existing failures, 0 regressions.

Session projects: named groups for organizing sessions. Project filter
bar with chips between search and session list. Create/rename/delete
projects, assign sessions via folder icon dropdown. Stored in
projects.json, project_id on Session model. 5 new API endpoints.
Code block copy button: every code block gets a Copy button in the
language header (or top-right for plain blocks). Clipboard API with
"Copied!" feedback.
Tool card expand/collapse: messages with 2+ tool cards get an
"Expand all / Collapse all" toggle above the card group.

1. Path traversal in _serve_static() [CRITICAL]
Sandbox resolved path to static/ directory using relative_to().
GET /static/../../../../etc/passwd now returns 404.
2. Skill category path traversal [HIGH]
Validate category param in skill save: reject values with '/' or '..'.
3. Gate /api/approval/inject_test to loopback only [HIGH]
Endpoint now returns 404 for any non-127.0.0.1 client,
preserving test functionality while blocking remote access.
4. Escape captured groups in renderMd() [HIGH]
All inline markdown regexes (bold, italic, headings, blockquote,
list items, table cells/headers, link labels) now run captured
text through esc() before inserting into innerHTML, preventing
XSS via AI-generated content.
5. SRI hashes for CDN resources + pin Mermaid version [MEDIUM]
Added integrity= + crossorigin= to all three PrismJS CDN tags.
Pinned Mermaid from floating @10 to @10.9.3 with SRI hash.
Tests: 224 passed, 0 failed.
Resolved path was not checked against the static/ directory, allowing
GET /static/../../../../etc/passwd to serve arbitrary files.
Fix: resolve the path and call relative_to(static_root) before serving.
Returns 404 for any path that escapes the static/ directory.
fix(css): add !important to three dead mobile overrides in @media(640px)
Three @media(max-width:640px) rules added by the mobile responsive PR
were silently overridden by later bare rules in the same stylesheet:
.composer-wrap padding (overridden by line 347)
.suggestion-grid max-width (overridden by line 364)
.tool-card margin-left (overridden by line 460)
Fix: add !important to these three declarations so the mobile overrides
actually fire on narrow screens.
Tests: 224 passed, 0 failed.
- Update _PROVIDER_MODELS['minimax'] from stale ABAB 6.5 models to
current MiniMax-M2.7/M2.5/M2.1 lineup (matching hermes-agent upstream)
- Update _PROVIDER_MODELS['zai'] from GLM-4 to current GLM-5/4.7/4.5
lineup (matching hermes-agent upstream)
- Extend resolve_model_provider() to also return base_url from config.yaml,
so providers with custom endpoints (MiniMax, Z.AI) are routed correctly
- Pass base_url to AIAgent in both streaming and sync chat paths

Replace duplicated inline provider resolution in routes.py and streaming.py
with a shared resolve_model_provider() helper in config.py.
Improvements over original:
- If model ID has a prefix matching any known direct-API provider
(not just the config provider), strip it and route correctly.
This handles edge cases like localStorage restoring a model from
a different provider group.
- Single source of truth for the resolution logic.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
When the model dropdown sends a prefixed ID like "anthropic/claude-xxx",
AIAgent interprets the provider/model format as an OpenRouter path and
routes through OpenRouter instead of the direct Anthropic API.
Fix: read the configured provider from config.yaml model section. If
the model ID starts with the configured provider name followed by "/",
strip that prefix and pass the provider explicitly to AIAgent. This
ensures direct API providers (Anthropic, OpenAI, etc.) are used when
configured, regardless of the model ID format from the dropdown.
