Rebased and enhanced version of PR #287 by @ccqqlo:
- _run_git() now returns stderr on failure instead of empty string,
so the UI can surface actionable git error messages
- Added _split_remote_ref() to split tracking refs like origin/master
into separate remote + branch args for git pull
- Ignore untracked files in stash decision (--untracked-files=no) to
prevent misleading stash-pop failures
- Fail early with clear message on unresolved merge conflicts
- 4 unit tests covering stderr, stdout fallback, exit code, and ref splitting
Based on work by @ccqqlo in PR #287.

* fix: approval pending check broken by stale has_pending import (#228)
api/routes.py imported has_pending/pop_pending from tools.approval, but the
agent module renamed has_pending to has_blocking_approval (checks gateway
queue, not _pending dict) and removed pop_pending. The import fell through
to fallback lambdas that always returned False, making GET /api/approval/pending
always return {pending:null} even after a successful inject_test.
Fix: check _pending directly under _lock — same dict submit_pending writes to.
Stale imports removed.
Before: 554 pass, 1 fail | After: 555 pass, 0 fail
* fix: move login JS into external file, remove inline handlers (#226)
Login page used inline onsubmit/onkeydown handlers and an inline <script>
block — all blocked by strict script-src CSP, causing silent login failure.
Fix: extract doLogin() and Enter key listener into static/login.js (served
from /static/, already a public path). Form uses id='login-form' and
data-* attributes for i18n strings instead of injected JS literals.
Also guards res.json() parse with try/catch so non-JSON error bodies
(e.g. HTTP 500) show the password-error fallback instead of 'Connection failed'.
Fixes#222.
* fix: improve update error messages when pull fails (#227)
_apply_update_inner() ran git pull --ff-only and returned only raw stderr
on failure, making all failure modes indistinguishable.
Fix: explicit git fetch before pull; if fetch fails, returns human-readable
network error. Diverged history and missing upstream tracking branch each
get distinct messages with exact recovery commands. Generic fallback
truncates to 300 chars and shows sentinel when git produces no output.
Also adds tests/test_update_checker.py with 13 tests covering all 4 new
diagnostic code paths (0 tests existed before).
Fixes#223.
* fix: stabilize 30s terminal approval prompt visibility (#225)
Adds minimum 30-second visibility guard for the approval card using
_approvalVisibleSince, _approvalHideTimer, and a signature fingerprint
to deduplicate repeated poll ticks.
Fix: respondApproval() and all stream-end paths (done/cancel/apperror/
error/start-error) now call hideApprovalCard(true) so the card hides
immediately when the user responds or the session ends. The 30s guard
only applies to mid-session poll ticks where the approval is still live
but briefly absent.
Adds 11 structural tests covering the new timer variables, force
parameter, force-on-respond, force-on-stream-end, and poll-loop
no-force behavior.
* feat: replace emoji icons with self-hosted Lucide SVG icons (#221)
Replaces all sidebar/button emoji icons with SVG paths from Lucide bundled
in static/icons.js (no CDN dependency). Adds li(name) function returning
inline SVG geometry from a hardcoded whitelist — unknown keys return '' so
dynamic server-supplied names never inject arbitrary SVG.
Changes:
- static/icons.js: new file with 21 icon paths + li() renderer
- static/index.html: all nav/action buttons now use li() icons
- static/ui.js: toolIcon(), fileIcon() use li() for tool/file icons
- static/messages.js: cancelStream button uses SVG square stop icon
- .gitignore: adds node_modules/ entry
Verified: all 35 onclick= functions exist in JS, all 21 li() calls
reference defined icons, applyBotName() selectors intact, version
label present, no removed IDs referenced by JS.
* docs: v0.44.0 release notes, bump version, update test counts

* feat: optional HTTPS/TLS support via cert and key env vars
Add optional HTTPS support controlled by two env vars:
HERMES_WEBUI_TLS_CERT=/path/to/cert.pem
HERMES_WEBUI_TLS_KEY=/path/to/key.pem
- Wraps server socket with ssl.SSLContext (min TLSv1.2)
- Dynamic scheme detection for startup messages (http:// vs https://)
- Graceful fallback to HTTP if cert loading fails — server never crashes
due to bad TLS config, just prints a warning and continues
- Auth cookie Secure flag already set when HTTPS is detected via getpeercert
- 6 end-to-end tests: config flags, HTTPS handshake, HTTP still works,
fallback on bad paths
Addresses #191 (HTTPS support issue).
* fix: use current branch upstream for update checks, not repo default branch
The update checker in api/updates.py always compared HEAD against
origin/master (or origin/main), which produced false 'N updates
available' alerts when the user is on a feature branch and master has
moved forward with unrelated commits.
Now uses git rev-parse --abbrev-ref @{upstream} to get the current
branch's tracking branch for both the behind-count check and the
apply-update pull command. Falls back to the default branch if no
upstream is set (brand-new local branch with no tracking config).
Fixes#200.
- 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
