- claude-fable-5 placed above claude-opus-4.8 in both curated lists
- claude-sonnet-5 replaces claude-sonnet-4.6
- sakana/fugu-ultra added near the bottom (before routers/free tier)
- regenerated website/static/api/model-catalog.json via scripts/build_model_catalog.py (live-pulled by CLI, published on merge — no release needed)
Adds Vertex AI as a first-class provider for Gemini models via Vertex's
OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Vertex authenticates with short-lived OAuth2
access tokens (service-account JSON or ADC), not a static API key — the
missing piece behind the recurring requests (#13484, #12639, #56259).
- agent/vertex_adapter.py: OAuth2 token minting + refresh-on-expiry
(5-min margin), ADC->service-account fallback, global vs regional
endpoint URLs. Config precedence: env var > config.yaml > default.
- plugins/model-providers/vertex/: provider profile (auth_type=vertex),
reuses Gemini's extra_body.google.thinking_config translation.
- runtime_provider: vertex short-circuit BEFORE the credential pool so a
credentials-file path is never mistaken for a static API key; mints a
fresh token + computes base_url per resolve.
- run_agent + conversation_loop: _try_refresh_vertex_client_credentials()
re-mints the token and rebuilds the client on a mid-session 401, so a
long-lived gateway agent survives token expiry (~1h).
- auxiliary_client: vertex auth_type branch for side-LLM tasks.
- config.yaml: vertex.project_id / vertex.region (non-secret, bridged to
env); credential path stays in .env (VERTEX_CREDENTIALS_PATH).
- setup wizard + model picker: dedicated _model_flow_vertex; curated
google/gemini-* model list; --provider choices.
- pricing/metadata: Vertex prices off the gemini docs snapshot; endpoint
host auto-maps to the vertex provider (no probe spam).
- lazy_deps + pyproject [vertex] extra: google-auth, opt-in only.
- docs: guides/google-vertex.md + providers page; tests for adapter +
runtime resolution.
Salvages and modernizes #8427 by @slawt onto current main: rewired from
the legacy PROVIDER_REGISTRY path to the provider-profile architecture,
moved non-secret config out of .env into config.yaml, and added the
per-turn 401 token-refresh the original lacked.
Follow-up to the salvaged #49129 commit. The original change flipped the
shared generic-provider merge in provider_model_ids() to live-first
unconditionally, which regressed curated-first for single providers
(kimi/zai, #46309) — and the PR encoded that regression by flipping the
kimi-coding and zai test assertions to expect live-first.
Gate live-first on an explicit _LIVE_FIRST_PICKER_PROVIDERS set
({opencode-zen, opencode-go}); every other provider keeps curated-first.
Also widen the uncapped picker + live-first sets to opencode-go, which has
the same 70+ model catalog problem as opencode-zen. Restore the
kimi-coding curated-first test and rewrite the merge-order test to assert
the per-provider contract.
* feat(moa): expose MoA presets as selectable virtual models
Reconstructed onto current main (PR #46081's base had diverged with no common
ancestor, marking the PR dirty so CI never dispatched). MoA is now a virtual
provider: each named preset is a selectable model under provider 'moa', and the
preset's aggregator is the acting model that answers and calls tools.
Reference models fan out in parallel via a bounded ThreadPoolExecutor (the same
batch pattern delegate_task uses) — all references dispatched at once, collected
when every one finishes, then handed to the aggregator. Output order is
preserved, failures and the MoA-recursion guard stay isolated per reference.
- Removed the old mixture_of_agents model tool and moa toolset.
- Added moa as a virtual provider in the provider/model inventory.
- /moa is shortcut behavior over model selection (default preset / named preset
/ one-shot prompt).
- Dashboard + Desktop manage named presets; presets appear in model pickers.
- Parallel reference fan-out in agent/moa_loop.py with regression test.
* fix(moa): thread moa_config through _run_agent to _run_agent_inner
The reconstructed gateway MoA wiring declared moa_config on _run_agent (the
profile-scoping wrapper) and used it inside _run_agent_inner, but the wrapper
never forwarded it — _run_agent_inner had no such parameter, so the runtime hit
NameError: name 'moa_config' is not defined on the compression-failure session
sync path. Add moa_config to _run_agent_inner's signature and forward it from
both wrapper call sites (multiplex and non-multiplex). Caught by
tests/gateway/test_compression_failure_session_sync.py on CI shard test(4).
* fix(moa): classify moa as a virtual provider in the catalog
The moa virtual provider has no PROVIDER_REGISTRY/ProviderProfile entry, so
provider_catalog() fell through to the default auth_type="api_key" with no
env vars — tripping two catalog invariants:
- test_provider_catalog: api_key providers must expose a credential env var
- test_provider_parity: every hermes-model provider must be desktop-configurable
moa already declares auth_type="virtual" in HERMES_OVERLAYS; consult that
overlay as an auth_type fallback so the catalog reports moa as virtual (no real
credential, no network endpoint). Exempt virtual providers from the desktop
parity union check the same way 'custom' is exempt — derived from the catalog,
not a hardcoded slug, so future virtual providers are covered too.
When the current provider is a custom endpoint (custom or custom:*), the model
switch pipeline must NOT auto-switch to a native provider/OpenRouter based on a
static-catalog match. The user explicitly configured their own endpoint and the
same model name may be served there; silently rewriting model.provider destroys
their config.
- detect_static_provider_for_model(): skip the static-catalog scan when the
current provider is custom/custom:*
- switch_model() Step e: extend is_custom to cover custom:* so the
detect_provider_for_model() last-resort fallback cannot fire
Salvaged from #48351 by Elshayib (authorship preserved).
Fixes#48305
Completes the #45006 fix. PR-base commit (configured-provider routing) handles
the case where a typed model IS declared in user/custom provider config. This
commit closes the other root: when a typed model is NOT in any config and the
current provider is a soft-accepting one (openai-codex / xai-oauth), the
hidden-model soft-accept (#16172 / #19729) would accept ANY unknown name as a
hidden model — so `qwen3.5-4b` typed on a Codex-default session "succeeded" and
mislabeled the provider as "OpenAI Codex" (the exact reported symptom), then
400'd on the next turn.
Gate the soft-accept to slugs that plausibly belong to the provider's family
(openai-codex -> gpt-/codex-/o1/o3/o4; xai-oauth -> grok-). Family-shaped
unknown slugs are still soft-accepted (preserving the #16172 entitlement-gated
hidden-model intent); unrelated names are rejected with actionable guidance to
pin the right provider via `--provider <slug>` or the picker.
Adds TestCodexSoftAcceptPlausibilityGate (5 tests): unrelated names rejected on
codex/xai, family-shaped hidden slugs still accepted, real catalog models
unaffected. Verified load-bearing.
* feat(providers): remove google-gemini-cli + google-antigravity OAuth providers
Google now actively bans accounts for third-party tools that piggyback on
Gemini CLI / Antigravity / Code Assist OAuth, and because abuse prevention
sits at a backend layer the ban can extend to the entire Google account
(Gmail/Drive), with a second violation being permanent.
Ref: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/discussions/20632
Removes both OAuth inference providers entirely (modules, provider profiles,
auth/runtime/config/models wiring, the /gquota Code Assist quota command,
the antigravity-cli optional skill, desktop + docs surface in en + zh-Hans).
The API-key 'gemini' provider (GOOGLE_API_KEY/GEMINI_API_KEY against
generativelanguage.googleapis.com) is unaffected and stays fully supported.
* fix(skills): keep the antigravity-cli skill — only the OAuth provider is removed
The antigravity-cli optional skill orchestrates the external `agy` binary as
a coding-agent tool via the terminal tool — it does NOT wrap Hermes inference
through the banned google-antigravity OAuth provider, so it carries none of
the account-ban risk that motivated removing that provider. Restore the skill,
its docs page, the sidebar entry, and the optional-skills catalog row. The
google-antigravity / google-gemini-cli inference providers stay fully removed.
CI on the salvage caught two issues the stale PR base masked:
1. The model-setup flows were extracted from main.py into
hermes_cli/model_setup_flows.py after @pmos69 forked. The cherry-pick
re-introduced a stale _model_flow_custom into main.py (duplicating the
one main.py now imports) and put _model_flow_google_antigravity there too.
Move the antigravity flow into model_setup_flows.py alongside its siblings
and drop the stale _model_flow_custom dup. Fixes the getpass/stdin OSError
in tests/cli/test_cli_provider_resolution.py.
2. google-antigravity re-exposes Claude/Gemini/GPT-OSS models, so its catalog
was hijacking bare short aliases (`sonnet` -> google-antigravity instead of
anthropic) in detect_static_provider_for_model via dict insertion order.
Add _BORROWED_MODEL_PROVIDERS and defer those providers to a last-resort
pass so a model's native vendor always wins alias/direct-catalog detection.
Fixes tests/hermes_cli/test_models.py::test_short_alias_resolves_to_static_model.
The model is callable via xAI OAuth but omitted from models.dev and
/v1/models listings. Merge it into the curated xAI catalog so it appears
in `hermes model` without requiring a custom model name.
The /model interactive picker resolved a base_url from user credentials
but never passed it to ProviderProfile.fetch_models(), causing the
picker to always query the provider's hardcoded default endpoint
instead of the user's custom URL (e.g. a company litellm proxy).
- providers/base.py: add optional base_url parameter to fetch_models()
- hermes_cli/models.py: pass resolved base_url to fetch_models()
- Update all subclass overrides for signature compatibility
- Add 6 regression tests covering override, fallback, and integration
Switch the default model for the xAI/Grok provider and the xAI web
search backend from grok-4.3 to grok-build-0.1. grok-build-0.1 is
already recognized by the model metadata, so no new model definition
is required; grok-4.3 remains selectable.
Z.ai released GLM 5.2 on 2026-06-15, available on OpenRouter:
- https://openrouter.ai/z-ai/glm-5.2
GLM-5.2 is Z.ai's flagship for long-horizon tasks, shipping a 1M-token
context window (up from 200K on GLM 5.1) and tool calling. Per the
OpenRouter API: text-only, context_length 1048576, tools supported.
No separate -fast variant exists.
The 1M context length, native zai picker entry, setup wizard, and Z.ai
coding-plan auth entries for glm-5.2 already landed on main. This fills
the remaining gap: the two aggregator surfaces where glm-5.1 appears but
glm-5.2 did not.
Changes:
hermes_cli/models.py
- Add z-ai/glm-5.2 to the OpenRouter fallback snapshot (OPENROUTER_MODELS)
and the Nous Portal curated list (_PROVIDER_MODELS["nous"]), newest
flagship first. Live catalogs surface it automatically when reachable;
the fallback lists matter when the manifest fetch fails.
website/static/api/model-catalog.json
- Regenerated via scripts/build_model_catalog.py (not hand-edited) so the
manifest stays in sync with the source lists; guarded by
tests/hermes_cli/test_model_catalog.py.
The generic live+curated merge (commit 630b438) seeded the merged list
from live results, demoting curated-only models below live ones. That
regressed #46309, which deliberately surfaces the newest curated model
(kimi-k2.7-code) FIRST in the native picker even when the live /models
listing lags. Restore curated-first ordering: curated entries lead (in
catalog order), live-only entries are appended for discovery. This keeps
the #46850 fix (zai glm-5.2 now appears) without the kimi regression.
Also switch the validate_requested_model curated fallback (commit
ee7b8a4) from provider_model_ids() — which triggers a second, uncached
live /models fetch with its own 8s timeout and may resolve different
credentials than the api_key/base_url just probed — to the pure-catalog
helper _model_in_provider_catalog(). Membership is checked against the
shipped catalog only, with no extra network call.
Tests: restore the curated-first assertion in
test_kimi_coding_live_catalog_does_not_hide_curated_k2_7_code; update
the new merge tests to curated-first semantics; de-circularize the
validation fallback tests to patch _PROVIDER_MODELS (the real source)
instead of mocking the function under test.
When live /v1/models responds but omits a model that exists in the
curated static catalog, validate_requested_model now accepts it with
a note instead of rejecting. This covers the /model slash-command path
(the picker path was already fixed in the parent commit).
Addresses review feedback from potatogim on #46857.
When a provider's live /v1/models endpoint returns a stale or incomplete
list (e.g. Z.AI missing glm-5.2), the generic profile-based code path
returned only the live results, silently dropping curated models.
Generalize the kimi-coding merge pattern to all providers: live entries
come first (provider's preferred order), then curated-only entries are
appended with case-insensitive dedup. This ensures models that the live
endpoint omits still appear in /model picker.
Fixes#46850
GLM-5.2 ships with a 1M (1,048,576) token context window. Without this
entry, Hermes falls through to the generic 'glm' key (202,752 tokens),
under-reporting the context bar and prematurely compressing conversations.
The 1M limit was verified empirically via needle-in-a-haystack retrieval
at 789,240 prompt tokens on api.z.ai/api/coding/paas/v4 — zero errors,
zero truncation, correct retrieval at every tested size (25K through 789K).
Changes:
- agent/model_metadata.py: add 'glm-5.2': 1_048_576 before 'glm' fallback
- hermes_cli/models.py: add glm-5.2 to zai curated models
- hermes_cli/setup.py: add glm-5.2 to setup wizard zai list
- hermes_cli/auth.py: add glm-5.2 to coding plan endpoint probes
- plugins/model-providers/zai/__init__.py: add glm-5.2 to fallback_models
- tests/agent/test_model_metadata.py: context resolution + vendor-prefix tests
The Anthropic picker returned the live /v1/models dump verbatim whenever
credentials were configured. Anthropic's API lags newly-routed curated
aliases (e.g. claude-fable-5, reachable on Anthropic before the models
endpoint enumerates it), so the curated entry vanished from the picker.
Merge curated _PROVIDER_MODELS["anthropic"] with the live catalog —
curated first, live-only appended, deduped — mirroring the OpenAI
curated-merge path. Live failure / no creds falls back to curated verbatim.
Adds the model above claude-opus-4.8 in both the OpenROUTER_MODELS and
_PROVIDER_MODELS['nous'] curated picker lists used by /model and
`hermes model`. Regenerated website/static/api/model-catalog.json to match.
The Portal's /api/nous/recommended-models endpoint is the source of truth for
which models are free/paid right now, but its result was cached in-process
only. When the live fetch failed (network, parse, non-2xx), the function
returned {} and the model picker silently dropped the free/paid
recommendations — free models would vanish with no indication anything went
wrong.
Add a per-base disk cache at $HERMES_HOME/cache/nous_recommended_cache.json:
a successful live fetch is persisted as last-known-good, and a failed fetch
with an empty in-process cache falls back to the disk copy instead of {}.
Self-heals on the next successful fetch. With no disk copy, still degrades to
{} (callers already handle that). Keyed by portal base URL so staging/prod
don't collide.
E2E: live fetch writes disk; simulated Portal failure returns the cached free
models from disk; no-disk + failure returns {}.
Two new free-tier slugs surfaced in /model and `hermes model`. owl-alpha
was already present. Regenerated website/static/api/model-catalog.json to
keep the manifest sync test green.
Follow-up on the salvaged fix: point the Nous silent-default override at
deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash (a cheap chat model) instead of the nvidia
nemotron entry. Keeps the no-model-configured fallback off the priciest
flagship while landing on a low-cost, broadly-capable default.
When a provider is configured but no model is selected (e.g. a profile sets
provider: nous with no model), the gateway/CLI fall back to
get_default_model_for_provider(), which returned the first curated catalog
entry. The Nous Portal list is ordered most-capable-first, so entry [0] is
anthropic/claude-opus-4.8 — the single most expensive model ($5/$25 per Mtok).
A misconfigured profile therefore silently routed every call to the flagship
and billed it for traffic the user never opted into.
Pin the silent (non-interactive) default for metered aggregators to the cheapest
curated tier via _PROVIDER_SILENT_DEFAULT_OVERRIDES so a missing model can never
auto-escalate to the flagship. The interactive default (GUI onboarding /
`hermes model`) keeps using the richer free/paid-tier-aware resolver.
Fixes the unexpected anthropic/claude-opus-4.8 charges reported for a
free-tier Nous account whose new profile had no default model.
Adds qwen/qwen3.7-plus directly under qwen/qwen3.7-max in both the
OpenRouter curated catalog (OPENROUTER_MODELS) and the Nous portal
catalog (_PROVIDER_MODELS['nous']), then regenerates the docs-hosted
model-catalog.json manifest from those source lists.
Replace the status-bar model chip's modal with a Cursor-style dropdown:
- providers grouped by name in a stable order (no recency reshuffle on select)
- per-model hover-Edit submenu for reasoning effort + fast, gated by per-model
capabilities now surfaced in the model.options payload
- unified Fast toggle: flips the speed=fast param where supported, else swaps
to the model's `-fast` variant (base and variant collapse into one row)
- localStorage-backed "Edit Models" dialog to choose which models appear
Adds reusable dropdown primitives (DropdownMenuSearch, shared row/label
tokens, portaled + collision-aware submenus) and reads session state from
nanostores rather than prop-drilling, so editing options doesn't rebuild and
close the menu.
#37046 swapped gemini-3-flash-preview -> gemini-3.5-flash in the
google-gemini-cli (OAuth/Code Assist) picker on the premise that the
preview slug was renamed. It wasn't. Per gemini-cli's models.ts, Code
Assist serves two distinct flash slugs with different access gates:
gemini-3-flash-preview (PREVIEW_GEMINI_FLASH_MODEL — what subscription/
free-tier OAuth users reach) and gemini-3.5-flash
(DEFAULT_GEMINI_3_5_FLASH_MODEL — GA-channel-gated). The model string is
passed verbatim into the {project, model, ...} envelope sent to
cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com, so non-GA users got a hard error on every
prompt because gemini-3.5-flash 404s for them.
Offer both slugs in the OAuth picker (matching gemini-cli's own /model
list) so non-GA users can select the preview flash that works. The
gemini (API-key), OpenRouter, and Nous lists are untouched —
google/gemini-3.5-flash is a real live model on those surfaces.
The model picker now matches `hermes model` for OpenAI, and OpenRouter
stops appearing as authenticated when only OPENAI_API_KEY is set.
- models.py: provider_model_ids() for the default api.openai.com endpoint
intersects the live /v1/models dump (120+ entries incl. embeddings,
whisper, tts, dall-e, moderation, legacy chat) with the curated agentic
list, preserving curated order. Custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints keep
the live list verbatim so discovery still works.
- providers.py: drop extra_env_vars=("OPENAI_API_KEY",) from the openrouter
overlay. list_authenticated_providers reads extra_env_vars to decide
whether a provider is authenticated, so any OpenAI user saw a phantom
OpenRouter row. Runtime OpenRouter credential resolution still falls back
to OPENAI_API_KEY (runtime_provider.py), independent of the overlay.
- Regression tests for both paths.
* fix(file_tools): block agent writes to ~/.hermes/config.yaml to prevent silent approval bypass
* fix(approval): pair terminal-side gate for ~/.hermes/config.yaml writes
Subway2023's #14639 blocks write_file/patch to ~/.hermes/config.yaml, but
the terminal side was only partially paired: echo>/tee/cp/mv to config.yaml
already tripped the project-config pattern, while `sed -i` and direct edits
slipped through with auto-approve. An unpaired write_file deny is theater per
SECURITY.md — the agent could flip approvals.mode=off via `sed -i` and the
mtime-keyed config cache reloads it mid-session.
config.yaml IS the security policy (approvals.mode/yolo/permanent allowlist
live there), so it warrants real pairing, not a half-door. Add a
_HERMES_CONFIG_PATH fragment mirroring _HERMES_ENV_PATH, fold it into
_SENSITIVE_WRITE_TARGET (covers tee/>/>>/cp/mv), and add sed -i coverage for
both config.yaml and .env. Pins 9 regression tests including no-regression
guards (reads pass, /tmp writes pass).

* chore(release): map Subway2023 for PR #14639 salvage
* fix(models): add gemini-3.5-flash to Gemini OAuth + API-key pickers
#34581 swapped gemini-3-flash-preview -> gemini-3.5-flash in the
OpenRouter and Nous lists but missed the curated Gemini catalogs, so
the Google OAuth (google-gemini-cli) picker still offered the retired
gemini-3-flash-preview slug and gemini-3.5-flash was unselectable.
Per Google's docs gemini-3-flash-preview was renamed to gemini-3.5-flash
and is served via Cloud Code Assist, so this completes the rename for:
- google-gemini-cli (OAuth/Code Assist) picker
- gemini (API-key) picker
- gemini provider default_aux_model
copilot keeps gemini-3-flash-preview (separate backend, own slug).

Add MiniMax-M3 to the minimax, minimax-oauth, and minimax-cn curated
lists (these are hardcoded — the native Anthropic-format endpoint has no
/v1/models listing and the providers aren't in _MODELS_DEV_PREFERRED, so
new models don't auto-pull). Add a DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS key
'minimax-m3' -> 1,000,000 so M3 resolves to its 1M context on every
surface (native ID + OpenRouter/Nous slug) via longest-key-first
substring match, while the M2.x series stays at 204,800.
The 7 consolidated provider families (OpenAI, xAI Grok, GitHub Copilot,
Google Gemini, Kimi / Moonshot, MiniMax, OpenCode) collapse to one
top-level picker row. Previously that row showed only the bare group
label (e.g. `OpenAI ▸`); now it carries a short blurb describing the
endpoints folded inside (e.g. `OpenAI ▸ (Codex CLI or direct OpenAI API)`).
- models.py: extend PROVIDER_GROUPS tuples to (label, description, members);
group_providers() emits the description on group rows.
- main.py: CLI picker renders `<label> ▸ (<description>)` for group rows.
- telegram.py: update the group tuple unpack (button text keeps the member
count, which fits inline keyboards better than a long blurb).
- tests: assert every group has a non-empty description and the fold emits it.
Member-specific detail still lives in each member's tui_desc and shows in
the drill-down sub-picker. Slug identity, --provider, /model paths unchanged.
Update the tui_desc text shown for each provider in the interactive
`hermes model` / setup wizard / `/model` pickers. Pure copy refresh —
slugs, labels, PROVIDER_GROUPS folding, and all typed paths are unchanged,
so the 7 grouped families (OpenAI, xAI Grok, GitHub Copilot, Google Gemini,
Kimi / Moonshot, MiniMax, OpenCode) still fold identically.
Also aligns the auto-injected alibaba-coding-plan provider description to
the same parenthetical style.
* feat(models): add deepseek-v4-flash to OpenRouter + Nous curated lists
deepseek/deepseek-v4-flash was already in the native deepseek provider
catalog but missing from the curated OpenRouter and Nous Portal picker
lists. Added it to both and regenerated the model-catalog.json manifest
(drift guard requires same-PR regeneration).
* refactor(models): trim redundant variants, group curated lists by maker
Remove claude-opus-4.7/4.6, gpt-5.4-nano, gpt-5.3-codex,
gemini-3-pro-image-preview, gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview, grok-4.20,
and the older gemini-3-pro-preview (Nous). Reorder both OPENROUTER_MODELS
and _PROVIDER_MODELS[nous] into contiguous per-maker blocks with comment
headers. Regenerated model-catalog.json (openrouter 27, nous 20).
* feat(models): add gemini-3-pro-preview to OpenRouter + Nous curated lists
Adds google/gemini-3-pro-preview to both curated pickers (new on
OpenRouter, restored on Nous). Regenerated model-catalog.json
(openrouter 28, nous 21).
* test(models): use claude-opus-4.8 in OpenRouter fetch fixtures
The two TestFetchOpenRouterModels tests mocked a live OpenRouter
response with claude-opus-4.6 and relied on it surviving the curated-list
filter. Since 4.6 was removed from OPENROUTER_MODELS, those models got
filtered out and the recommended tag shifted. Swap the fixture to
claude-opus-4.8 (still curated, still first in the Anthropic block).
* Inspired by Claude Code: /compress here [N] — boundary-aware 'summarize up to here'
Adds a user-chosen compression boundary to the existing /compress command.
/compress here [N] summarizes everything except the most recent N exchanges
(default 2), which are preserved verbatim — letting the user pick the
compression boundary instead of relying on the automatic token-budget heuristic.
Inspired by Claude Code's Rewind 'Summarize up to here' action (v2.1.139,
Week 20, May 2026): https://code.claude.com/docs/en/whats-new/2026-w20
- hermes_cli/partial_compress.py: pure split/parse helpers + seam-alternation
guard (shared by CLI and gateway).
- cli.py / gateway/run.py: route 'here [N]' / '--keep N' to partial compression;
compress only the head, re-append the verbatim tail through the seam guard.
- Preserves message-flow role alternation (seam guard merges any illegal
user->user / assistant->assistant adjacency).
- Reuses the existing _compress_context session-rotation/lock machinery — no
changes to the compression core.
- Bare /compress (full) and /compress <focus> behavior unchanged.
Tests: 12 helper unit tests + 5 CLI integration tests + E2E (interleaved
tool-call transcript, degenerate/multimodal seams, real handler path).
* feat(model-picker): group multi-endpoint providers under one row
The interactive provider pickers (hermes model, setup wizard, Telegram
/model) listed every provider slug flat, so vendors with several endpoints
(Kimi/Moonshot, MiniMax, xAI Grok, Google Gemini, OpenAI, OpenCode, GitHub
Copilot) each occupied multiple top-level rows. Now related slugs fold into
one top-level row that drills down to the specific endpoint.
- models.py: add PROVIDER_GROUPS table + group_providers() fold (display
only — CANONICAL_PROVIDERS, slugs, --provider, /model <provider:model>
all unchanged and individually addressable).
- hermes model (main.py): group rows drill into a member sub-picker, then
dispatch to the existing _model_flow_* unchanged. setup wizard inherits it.
- Telegram /model: new mpg:<group> callback expands to member mp:<slug>
buttons; single authenticated member degrades to a direct button.
- Grouping is the single shared fold across all three surfaces.
Validation: 163 targeted tests pass; E2E confirms group->member->model
resolves to the correct concrete slug for all families.
* chore(models): swap gemini-3-flash-preview for gemini-3.5-flash in OpenRouter + Nous lists
* chore(models): regenerate model-catalog.json for gemini-3.5-flash swap
Vulture + per-symbol verification (whole-repo grep incl. tests, string
literals, getattr, decorator/registry/argparse dispatch) confirmed each of
these has zero callers anywhere — not reachable via any dynamic-dispatch path,
not referenced by tests, not re-exported.

Also dropped two imports left unused by the removals:

Pure deletion: -551 LOC. No behavior change. Test files covering the edited
modules pass (640/640); the broader suite's pre-existing/env-dependent
failures reproduce unchanged on origin/main.
The docs site (Vercel) serves /docs/api/model-catalog.json behind a bot
mitigation rule that returns HTTP 403 + x-vercel-mitigated: challenge for
non-browser User-Agents — including urllib (what the CLI uses) and curl.
When that happens, get_catalog() falls back to the stale disk cache and
new model releases (Opus 4.8, etc.) never reach the /model picker even
though they're already in OPENROUTER_MODELS and the live OpenRouter API.
Adds a fallback URL chain: when the primary catalog URL fails, walk
DEFAULT_CATALOG_FALLBACK_URLS — currently the raw.githubusercontent.com
copy of the same file. GitHub raw doesn't bot-gate, so the manifest stays
reachable through Vercel firewall hiccups. Per-provider override URLs
keep their direct-fetch semantics (operators configure those specifically,
no implicit fallback).
Also swaps stepfun/step-3.5-flash for stepfun/step-3.7-flash in the
OpenRouter + Nous Portal curated picker lists. Native stepfun provider
configuration (api.stepfun.ai) is left alone — that depends on what
stepfun.ai itself serves, not what OpenRouter routes.
Test plan: 5 new TestFallbackChain tests cover primary-success,
primary-failure-fallback-success, all-fail, primary==fallback-dedup, and
end-to-end get_catalog routing through the new helper. Existing 23 tests
in test_model_catalog.py still pass (28 total). Wider tests/hermes_cli/
sweep: 5701/5701 pass.
* fix(model picker): unify /model and `hermes model` model lists, add disk cache
The /model slash picker and `hermes model` were drifting apart. /model
read the raw static `OPENROUTER_MODELS` list (31 entries, including 5
that fail at runtime — no tool-call support or absent from live catalog),
while `hermes model` ran the same list through the live OpenRouter
/v1/models tool-support filter and showed 26 valid entries. Same problem
existed for every other authed provider: /model used curated static
lists, `hermes model` used live /v1/models.
Unifies both surfaces on `provider_model_ids()` and adds a generic
disk-cached wrapper so the picker stays snappy.
Changes
- hermes_cli/models.py: new `cached_provider_model_ids()` —
~/.hermes/provider_models_cache.json, 1h TTL, per-provider entries
keyed by credential fingerprint (env vars + OAuth file mtimes).
Stale-data-beats-no-data on transient failures. Pair with
`clear_provider_models_cache(provider=None)`.
- hermes_cli/models.py: `provider_model_ids("nous")` now falls back
to the docs-hosted manifest (not the in-repo snapshot) when the live
Portal /models call fails — preserves the model_catalog regression
guarantee while still going through the unified pathway.
- hermes_cli/model_switch.py: `list_authenticated_providers` routes
sections 1, 2, and 2b through `cached_provider_model_ids(slug)` with
curated fallback when the live fetcher comes up empty.
- hermes_cli/model_switch.py: `parse_model_flags` extended to a
4-tuple, parses `--refresh`.
- cli.py / gateway/run.py / tui_gateway/server.py: updated unpacking;
CLI + gateway wire `--refresh` to `clear_provider_models_cache()`.
- hermes_cli/main.py: `hermes model --refresh` argparse flag.
- hermes_cli/commands.py: `/model` args_hint advertises `--refresh`.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_inventory.py: refresh stale comment.
Live PTY parity verification
- /model → OpenRouter row: `(26 models)` (was 31, with broken entries)
- `hermes model` → OpenRouter: 26 models (unchanged)
- The 5 dropped entries: `pareto-code` (no tool-call support),
`gemini-3-pro-image-preview` (no tool-call support),
`elephant-alpha`, `hy3-preview:free`, `ring-2.6-1t:free` (gone
from OpenRouter's live catalog).
Live PTY timing
- First /model open, empty cache: 4624 ms (full network round trip
across every authed provider)
- Second /model open, warm cache: 51 ms (90× faster)
- `/model --refresh` clears the disk cache and re-fetches.
Cache schema (~/.hermes/provider_models_cache.json, ~3 KB):
{ "anthropic": {"fp": "<sha256:16>", "at": 1748..., "models": [...]},
... }
Targeted tests: tests/hermes_cli/ + gateway model tests + tui_gateway —
5855/5855 pass.
* fix(model picker): use blake2b for cache fingerprint to silence CodeQL
py/weak-sensitive-data-hashing flagged the sha256 call in
_credential_fingerprint() as a high-severity alert because the input
includes env var values whose names contain *_API_KEY / *_TOKEN.
The hash is used solely as a cache-bust identity — never reversed, never
stored, collisions are harmless (worst case: cache miss → live re-fetch).
blake2b serves the same purpose and isn't flagged by this rule.
Functional behavior identical: 16-hex-char digest, cache hit/miss logic
unchanged. Live re-verified — 26 OpenRouter models, warm-cache 78ms.
Anthropic released Claude Opus 4.8 on 2026-05-27, available on
OpenRouter, Anthropic, Amazon Bedrock, and Claude Platform on AWS:
- https://openrouter.ai/anthropic/claude-opus-4.8
- https://openrouter.ai/anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast
The fast-mode variant is a separate model ID (anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast)
priced at 2x of the base model — a notable improvement over the 6x premium
on older Opus generations (4.6/4.7). It is NOT a `speed: "fast"` request
parameter like Opus 4.6; Anthropic's native fast-mode beta still only
covers Opus 4.6.
Changes:
hermes_cli/models.py
- Add anthropic/claude-opus-4.8 + anthropic/claude-opus-4.8-fast to
the OpenRouter fallback snapshot and the Nous Portal curated list
(live catalogs surface them automatically when reachable; the
fallback list matters when the manifest fetch fails).
- Add claude-opus-4-8 to the Anthropic-native picker list.
agent/model_metadata.py
- Register claude-opus-4-8 / claude-opus-4.8 in DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS
with 1M tokens (matches 4.6/4.7).
agent/anthropic_adapter.py
- Extend _XHIGH_EFFORT_SUBSTRINGS, _ADAPTIVE_THINKING_SUBSTRINGS, and
_NO_SAMPLING_PARAMS_SUBSTRINGS with "4-8"/"4.8". 4.8 inherits the
Opus 4.7 API contract: adaptive thinking only, xhigh effort level
supported, sampling parameters (temperature/top_p/top_k) return 400.
- Add claude-opus-4-8 to _ANTHROPIC_OUTPUT_LIMITS (128k max output,
same as 4.7). Matches by substring so claude-opus-4-8-fast and
date-stamped variants resolve correctly.
agent/usage_pricing.py
- Add anthropic/claude-opus-4-8: $5/$25 per MTok input/output, $0.50
cache read, $6.25 cache write (same as 4.6/4.7).
- Add anthropic/claude-opus-4-8-fast: $10/$50 per MTok (2x), $1.00
cache read, $12.50 cache write. Per OpenRouter, the 2x premium is
the only differentiator from regular Opus 4.8.
- OpenRouter routes still pull pricing from the live /models API, so
no static OpenRouter entry is needed.
tests/agent/test_model_metadata.py
- Extend the Claude 4.6+ context-length tag list with 4.8/4-8.
website/static/api/model-catalog.json
- Regenerated via `python scripts/build_model_catalog.py` to pick up
the new entries in the OpenRouter and Nous Portal fallback lists.
E2E verification (isolated sys.path import against the worktree):
- _supports_adaptive_thinking, _supports_xhigh_effort, _forbids_sampling_params
all return True for claude-opus-4.8 and claude-opus-4.8-fast.
- _supports_fast_mode (the `speed: "fast"` request-parameter gate) stays
False for 4.8 — fast mode is a separate model ID on OpenRouter, not a
parameter Anthropic accepts on the base model.
- DEFAULT_CONTEXT_LENGTHS resolves 1M for both notations.
- resolve_billing_route + _lookup_official_docs_pricing resolve the
correct $5/$25 (regular) and $10/$50 (fast) pricing for both
dot-notation and dash-notation inputs.
- 4.7 and 4.6 regression: behavior unchanged.
Unit tests: 305 passed across tests/agent/test_usage_pricing.py,
test_model_metadata.py, tests/hermes_cli/test_model_catalog.py,
test_models.py, test_model_validation.py, test_models_dev_preferred_merge.py.
Alibaba's latest flagship Qwen model is released but not yet present in the
DashScope (alibaba) or Alibaba Coding Plan curated catalogs. Add it so it
shows up in the /model picker and setup wizard for those providers.
OpenCode Go routing for qwen3.7-max already landed via #32780 (commit 2fc77c53f).
OpenRouter + Nous catalog entries already landed via #32809 (commit ccd3d04fc).
This salvage picks up the remaining alibaba / alibaba-coding-plan entries from
#32806 — the AI Gateway entry is dropped because Vercel AI Gateway was removed
in #33067.
