* revert: auto-subscribe gateway chat on tool-driven kanban_create (NousResearch#19718)

Reverts ff3d277. Teknium reviewed the merged PR and decided this
behavior isn't wanted — tool-driven kanban_create should not mirror
the slash-command path's auto-subscribe. Orchestrators that want
their originating chat notified can call kanban_notify-subscribe
explicitly; we're not going to make it implicit.

* feat(kanban-dashboard): per-platform home-channel notification toggles

Adds a "Notify home channels" section to the task drawer in the kanban
dashboard plugin. Each platform where the user has set a home channel
(/sethome, TELEGRAM_HOME_CHANNEL env var, gateway.platforms.<p>.home_channel
in config.yaml) gets a toggle pill. Toggling on writes a kanban_notify_subs
row keyed to that platform's home (chat_id + thread_id); toggling off
removes it. The existing gateway notifier watcher delivers completed /
blocked / gave_up events without any new plumbing — this is purely a GUI
surface over existing machinery.

Replaces the reverted auto-subscribe behavior from NousResearch#19718 with an explicit,
per-task, per-platform, user-controlled opt-in. No implicit subscription
on tool-driven kanban_create; no CLI commands; no slash commands. Just a
toggle in the drawer.

Backend (plugins/kanban/dashboard/plugin_api.py):
- GET  /api/plugins/kanban/home-channels[?task_id=X]
  Returns every platform with a configured home, plus a per-entry
  subscribed: bool relative to task_id (false when task_id omitted).
  Reads the live GatewayConfig via load_gateway_config() so env-var
  overlays stay honored.
- POST /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/:id/home-subscribe/:platform
  Idempotent add_notify_sub keyed to the platform's home.
- DELETE /api/plugins/kanban/tasks/:id/home-subscribe/:platform
  remove_notify_sub for the same tuple.
- 404 when the platform has no home configured, or task_id doesn't
  exist (POST only).

Frontend (plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/index.js):
- TaskDrawer fetches /home-channels on open, keyed on task_id.
- HomeSubsSection renders nothing when zero platforms have a home (so
  users who haven't set one up don't see an empty UI block).
- Optimistic toggle with busy flag + revert-on-failure. One pill per
  platform; ✓ prefix and --on class indicate the subscribed state.

CSS (plugins/kanban/dashboard/dist/style.css):
- .hermes-kanban-home-subs flex row + .hermes-kanban-home-sub pill
  style + --on subscribed variant (subtle ring-colored background).

Live-tested against a dashboard with TELEGRAM + DISCORD_BOT_TOKEN /
HOME_CHANNEL env vars set: drawer shows both pills, toggling each
flips its visual state AND writes/removes the correct kanban_notify_subs
row (verified via direct DB read).

Tests (tests/plugins/test_kanban_dashboard_plugin.py, 11 new, 53/53
pass total):
- home-channels lists only platforms with a home (slack with a
  token but no home is excluded)
- no task_id -> all subscribed=false
- subscribe creates notify_sub row with correct chat/thread/platform
- subscribed=true reflected in subsequent GET
- idempotent re-subscribe
- unknown platform -> 404
- unknown task -> 404
- unsubscribe removes the row
- telegram + discord subscribe/unsubscribe independent
- zero homes -> empty list
…NousResearch#19740)

The stale-code self-check (Issue NousResearch#17648) used sentinel-file mtimes to
decide whether the gateway survived a `hermes update` with stale
`sys.modules`. That signal false-positives on any write to the
sentinel files — including agent-driven edits during Hermes-on-Hermes
dev sessions. Telling the agent to patch `run_agent.py` would flip
the check to True on the next user message and force a gateway
restart even though no update happened.

Switch the signal to `git rev-parse HEAD`. Agent file edits don't
move HEAD; `hermes update` (git pull) always does. Reading .git/HEAD
directly (no subprocess) with a 5s cache keeps the overhead negligible
on bursty chats. Non-git installs short-circuit to False — the
stale-modules class can't occur without a git-backed update path, so
there's nothing to detect.

The legacy `_compute_repo_mtime` helper is kept but unused by
detection, reserved as a fallback hook for future pip-install update
paths.

- _read_git_head_sha(): resolves HEAD across main checkout, worktree
  (follows `gitdir:` + `commondir` pointers), and packed-refs layouts.
- _current_git_sha_cached(): per-runner 5s SHA cache.
- _detect_stale_code(): boot SHA vs current SHA, returns False when
  either is unavailable.
- Tests cover all four layouts, the agent-edits-don't-trigger
  regression, and cache behavior.

`hermes update` iterated only non-active profiles when seeding bundled
skills. `seed_profile_skills()` uses a subprocess with an explicit
HERMES_HOME so it correctly targets any profile path; the `p.name !=
active` filter was the only thing preventing the active profile from
being included, leaving it silently on stale skill content after every
update.

Drop the filter and update the header line from "other profiles" to
"all profiles". The active profile is now seeded on the same path as
every other profile. The earlier `sync_skills()` call (module-level
HERMES_HOME) remains for backward compatibility; the subprocess-based
loop is reliable regardless of which HERMES_HOME the CLI was invoked
with.

…ail loops

Add EMAIL_ALLOWED_USERS check in EmailAdapter._dispatch_message()
to silently discard emails from senders not in the allowlist.  This
prevents the adapter from creating thread context and dispatching a
MessageEvent for unauthorized senders, which could race with the
gateway authorization check and result in SMTP replies being sent
despite the handler returning None.

Test: tests/gateway/test_email.py::TestDispatchMessage::test_non_allowlisted_sender_dropped

The cron scheduler's run_job() loaded config.yaml with yaml.safe_load()
but never called _expand_env_vars(), so ${HERMES_MODEL} and similar
references in model:, fallback_providers:, and other config.yaml fields
were forwarded to the LLM API as literal strings, causing HTTP 400 errors.

The normal CLI path has always called _expand_env_vars() via load_config(),
so this was a cron-only gap. The .env load at the top of run_job() already
populates os.environ before config.yaml is read, so the expansion sees the
correct values.

MiniMax deprecated the old v1/t2a_v2 endpoint (api.minimax.io) and
moved to v1/text_to_speech (api.minimax.chat). The new API:

- Uses a flat payload: {model, text, voice_id} instead of nested
  voice_setting / audio_setting objects
- Returns raw audio bytes (Content-Type: audio/mpeg) instead of
  JSON with hex-encoded audio
- Uses model 'speech-01' instead of 'speech-2.8-hd'
- Updated default voice_id to 'female-shaonv' for Chinese TTS

The implementation detects Content-Type to handle both old and new
API responses, maintaining backward compatibility for any users who
manually configured the legacy base_url.
get_due_jobs() called load_jobs() and save_jobs() without holding
_jobs_file_lock, creating a race with the locked mark_job_run() and
advance_next_run(). Wrap get_due_jobs() with the lock (delegating to a
new _get_due_jobs_locked() inner function) so all load→modify→save
cycles are serialised. Add two regression tests: one verifying 3
concurrent mark_job_run() calls each land their correct last_status and
last_run_at without overwrites, and a stress test confirming 10 parallel
calls each increment their job's completed count to exactly 1.

Copilot review: the helper accepted None in one test but was annotated str.
Matches actual usage where no-content-type attachments are a tested scenario.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The `used` property was reading `self._used` without holding the lock,
while `consume()`, `refund()`, and `remaining` all properly acquire
`self._lock` before accessing `_used`. This means a concurrent call to
`used` during `consume()` or `refund()` could observe a partially-
updated value, leading to incorrect iteration budget metrics reported
to the gateway, or in extreme cases a ValueError from CPython's list
implementation when the internal array resizes during iteration.

Fix: acquire the lock in `used` just like `remaining` does.

models.dev appends :cloud and -cloud suffixes to Ollama Cloud model IDs
(e.g. kimi-k2.6:cloud, qwen3-coder:480b-cloud) that the live Ollama Cloud
API does not use. Without normalisation, these suffixed IDs bypass the
dedup check and appear alongside the correct clean IDs, causing 400/404
errors when users select them in /model or hermes model.

Add _strip_ollama_cloud_suffix() and apply it to mdev entries before the
dedup merge in fetch_ollama_cloud_models() so all model IDs stored in the
disk cache use the canonical form the API accepts.

…rch#19871)

The shipped no-agent docs introduced the feature via CLI first and
mentioned the chat path as a two-line afterthought. That buries the
actual value prop: the cronjob tool exposes no_agent directly to the
agent, so a user can describe a watchdog in plain language and Hermes
wires up the script + schedule + delivery without anyone opening an
editor.

Changes:

* cron-script-only.md: promote 'Create One from Chat' above
  'Create One from the CLI', flesh it out with a worked transcript
  (the actual tool calls the agent makes), add subsections covering
  'what the agent decides for you' (when to pick no_agent=True vs
  LLM mode) and 'managing watchdogs from chat' (pause/resume/edit/
  remove all agent-accessible).

* user-guide/features/cron.md:
  - Add 'no-agent mode' to the top-level feature list with a cross-
    link, plus a sentence up top making it clear everything is
    agent-accessible through the cronjob tool.
  - Add 'The agent sets these up for you' subsection to the no-agent
    section showing the exact tool call shape.

* automate-with-cron.md: tighten the existing tip box to mention the
  agent-driven path, not just CLI scheduling.

No behavior change — docs only.
The bundled himalaya skill documented folder aliases using a stale
TOML schema (`[accounts.NAME.folder.alias]`, singular) that himalaya
v1.2.0 silently ignores. The TOML parses without error, but the
alias resolver never reads the sub-section — every lookup then falls
through to the canonical folder name.

Source: in `pimalaya/core` (the `email-lib` crate himalaya v1.2.0
depends on, currently v0.27.0), `email/src/folder/config.rs` defines
`FolderConfig { aliases: Option<HashMap<String, String>>, ... }`
(plural, no `#[serde(rename)]`/`alias` aliases, no
`deny_unknown_fields`), and `account/config/mod.rs::get_folder_alias`
returns the input verbatim when no alias is found. So the singular
`alias` key deserializes to nothing and lookups silently fall
through.

On Gmail (where `sent` resolves to `[Gmail]/Sent Mail`, not `Sent`)
this means save-to-Sent fails *after* SMTP delivery already
succeeded, and `himalaya message send` exits non-zero. Any caller
(agent, script, user) that retries on that exit code will re-run
the entire send — including SMTP — producing duplicate emails to
recipients. Silent ignore + caller-level retry is significantly
worse than a config that just doesn't work.

This commit updates SKILL.md and references/configuration.md to the
v1.2.0 `folder.aliases.X` syntax (plural, dotted keys, directly
under the account section), adds a Gmail-specific block with the
`[Gmail]/Sent Mail`-style mapping, and adds notes on the failure
mode so future readers don't hit the same trap. SKILL.md version
bumped 1.0.0 → 1.1.0.

When the TUI backend (tui_gateway/entry.py) is spawned by Node.js with the
user's CWD containing a local utils/ directory, that directory shadows the
installed utils module, causing ImportError in run_agent and hermes_cli.

Strip '' and '.' from sys.path and prepend HERMES_PYTHON_SRC_ROOT (already
set by hermes_cli before spawning the subprocess) so installed packages
always win over CWD artifacts.

PR NousResearch#9931 ("feat(google-workspace): add --from flag for custom sender display name")
accidentally removed the required_credential_files frontmatter block that tells
hermes to bind-mount google_token.json and google_client_secret.json into Docker
and Modal remote terminals before running setup.py.

Without this header the credential files are never registered in the session-scoped
ContextVar, so get_credential_file_mounts() returns an empty list at container
creation time and the OAuth files are invisible inside the sandbox.

PR NousResearch#19709 added website/docs/guides/cron-script-only.md but never added the entry to website/sidebars.ts, which is explicitly enumerated (not autogenerated). Two consequences:

1. The guide didn't show up in the left-nav "Guides & Tutorials" list — users could only reach it via cross-links from other pages.
2. Landing on the guide page directly made the sidebar disappear entirely (Docusaurus treats unregistered docs as orphaned and renders them without their parent sidebar).

Added 'guides/cron-script-only' next to 'guides/automate-with-cron' so it slots in alongside the other cron content. Verified with `npm run build`: no orphan warnings, no broken links, page builds with sidebar intact.

No content change, docs only.
Adds an optional creative skill that integrates HyperFrames, an
HTML-based video rendering framework, as a sibling to manim-video.
Complements manim's math-focused animation with motion-graphics,
captioned narration, audio-reactive visuals, shader transitions, and
website-to-video production.

- scripts/setup.sh                                   — idempotent one-time setup

OpenClaw / Chromium 147 fix (hyperframes#294):
Pinning hyperframes@>=0.4.2 (commit 4c72ba4 ships the
HeadlessExperimental.beginFrame auto-detect + screenshot fallback).
setup.sh pre-caches chrome-headless-shell so the fast BeginFrame path

Pulls the hyperframes skill up to the latest state of heygen-com/hyperframes
skill content. Opened 2026-04-17; upstream has shipped CLI, layout, and path
changes since.

- SKILL.md: promote the visual-style check to a proper HARD-GATE
  (DESIGN.md > named style > ask 3 questions, with the NousResearch#333/#3b82f6/Roboto
  tells); expand Step 6 to cover audio-reactive (mandatory per-frame
  tl.call() sampling loop — a single long tween does NOT react to audio),
  caption exit guarantee (hard tl.set kill after group.end), marker
  highlighting, and scene transitions; add the animation-map script to
  Verification; link the new features.md.

- references/cli.md: add capture and validate (both shipped commands, both
  referenced from the workflow but missing from the reference). Add
  --lang to tts with the voice-prefix auto-inference table and espeak-ng
  dependency note (heygen-com/hyperframes#351, 2026-04-20 — after this
  PR opened).

- references/website-to-video.md: update all paths to the capture/
  subfolder layout introduced in heygen-com/hyperframes#345
  (capture/screenshots/, capture/assets/, capture/extracted/tokens.json).
  Old captured/ prefix was broken — agents following the skill were
  looking for files in wrong locations.

- references/features.md (new): distilled coverage for captions (language
  rule, tone table, word grouping, fitTextFontSize, exit guarantee), TTS
  (multilingual phonemization, speed tuning), audio-reactive (data
  format, mapping table, sampling pattern), marker highlighting
  (highlight/circle/burst/scribble/sketchout), and transitions (energy/
  mood tables, presets, shader-compatible CSS rules). Five topics the
  original PR didn't cover.
- references/cli.md: add Inspect step (5/7) to Workflow + dedicated `## inspect` section between validate and preview, covering --json/--samples/--at flags and the legacy `hyperframes layout` alias
- SKILL.md: rename procedure step 7 to "Lint, validate, inspect, preview, render" with the full pipeline; explain inspect as the layout-side companion to validate (catches overflow / off-frame / occluded text issues that static lint can't see)
- SKILL.md verification: lint + validate + inspect as a single combined pass
- SKILL.md References list: include `inspect` in the cli.md command list

Brings the optional skill in sync with hyperframes-oss main as of 2026-05-03 — `inspect` was added in heygen-com/hyperframes#480 (2026-04-25) and is documented as a real workflow step in skills/hyperframes-cli/SKILL.md.

…crash (NousResearch#19895)

PR NousResearch#19884 added @kb.add('c-S-c') unconditionally. prompt_toolkit raises
ValueError("Invalid key: c-S-c") during HermesCLI.__init__ on platforms
where this key spec is not recognised — the process exits before reaching
the prompt loop. Reported on macOS (NousResearch#19894) and Linux (NousResearch#19896) immediately
after NousResearch#19884 landed.

Fix: wrap the registration in try/except ValueError so that startup
continues cleanly on any platform/version that rejects the spec. Where
the spec is accepted the binding is registered normally as a no-op,
allowing the terminal to handle Ctrl+Shift+C natively as before.

…running action (NousResearch#19916)

Follow-up polish to the kanban dashboard from NousResearch#19864 and NousResearch#19705.

**Home-channel toggle contrast.** The `.hermes-kanban-home-sub--on`
class previously used `color-mix(var(--color-ring) 14%, transparent)`
which was nearly invisible on both the default teal and NERV themes —
the on/off distinction relied almost entirely on the ✓ prefix glyph.
Bump to 32% fill + full-opacity ring border + inner ring shadow +
font-weight 600. Still theme-scoped (no hardcoded colors), but reads
at a glance on both tested themes.

**Drop the → running status action.** Since NousResearch#19705, `PATCH /tasks/:id`
rejects `status=running` with HTTP 400 — only the dispatcher's
`claim_task` path legitimately enters that state (so the run row,
claim lock, and worker PID are created atomically). The UI button was
still present and produced a 400 on click, which is a confusing dead
affordance. Remove it from `StatusActions`; add a comment pointing to
NousResearch#19535 so future editors know why it's missing.

Live-tested on the default Hermes Teal theme. 53/53 kanban dashboard
plugin tests still pass.
…#19895) (NousResearch#19919)

NousResearch#19884 added a prompt_toolkit key binding for Ctrl+Shift+C to
"prevent Hermes from intercepting the keystroke as an interrupt
signal." NousResearch#19895 then wrapped the binding in try/except after
discovering it crashed startup with ValueError on every platform.

Both PRs were based on a misreading of how terminal key events
propagate:

1. Terminal emulators (GNOME Terminal, iTerm2, kitty, Windows Terminal,
   etc.) intercept Ctrl+Shift+C before the keystroke reaches the
   application's stdin. prompt_toolkit never sees it. The binding
   could never have intercepted anything.

2. prompt_toolkit's key spec parser doesn't recognise 'c-S-c' on any
   platform — the Shift modifier is meaningless on control-sequence
   keys. Verified: every prompt_toolkit version raises 'Invalid key:
   c-S-c' at registration time.

The handler is dead code. Delete it and leave a comment explaining
why no binding is needed here. Ctrl+Q alias (NousResearch#19884's other addition)
stays — that's a real prompt_toolkit key and a legitimate interrupt
shortcut.

Verified the CLI starts cleanly — key binding phase no longer raises
and the subsequent chat flow reaches the provider setup check without
error.
…h#17558)

When a tool call deletes its own working directory (`cd /tmp/foo &&
rm -rf /tmp/foo`), the next `subprocess.Popen(args, cwd=self.cwd)` raised
`FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2]` before bash even started — every subsequent
terminal/file-tool call hit the same wedge until the gateway restarted.

Fix in `LocalEnvironment._run_bash`: before handing `self.cwd` to Popen,
resolve a safe alternative when the path is gone (walk up to the nearest
existing ancestor, falling back to `tempfile.gettempdir()` only as a last
resort). Log a warning so the recovery is visible — not silent — and
update `self.cwd` so the next call doesn't repeat the message.

Defense in depth in `LocalEnvironment._update_cwd`: only adopt the new
cwd when it still exists as a directory. `pwd -P` from a deleted cwd can
leave a stale value in the marker file; refusing to store a missing path
keeps `self.cwd` valid by construction.

…tdout

Address Copilot review on PR NousResearch#17569:

1. _resolve_safe_cwd never tested the filesystem root because the loop
   exited when `os.path.dirname(parent) == parent`, which is true once
   `parent == '/'`. Restructure so the root is checked before the
   self-equal exit. Adds `test_returns_root_when_only_root_exists` —
   regression-guarded by reverting the loop and watching it fail.

2. The fake `Popen.stdout` was a `MagicMock`; `BaseEnvironment._wait_for_process`
   calls `proc.stdout.fileno()` then `select.select`/`os.read` against it,
   which raised `TypeError: fileno() returned a non-integer` (visible as a
   thread exception in test output) and could in theory read from an
   unrelated real fd. Hand `fake_popen` a real `os.pipe()` with the write
   end pre-closed so the drain loop sees EOF immediately. Helper records
   each fd so the test cleans up after itself.

The background process spawn in process_registry.py had the same

Add Lightpanda as an optional browser engine for local mode.
Lightpanda is a headless browser built from scratch in Zig -- faster
navigation than Chrome with significantly less memory.

One config line to enable:
  browser:
    engine: lightpanda

New functions in browser_tool.py:
- _get_browser_engine() -- config/env reader with validation + caching
- _should_inject_engine() -- only inject in local non-cloud mode
- _needs_lightpanda_fallback() -- detect empty/failed LP results
- _chrome_fallback_screenshot() -- temporary Chrome session for screenshots
- Engine injection in _run_browser_command (--engine flag)
- browser_vision pre-routes screenshots to Chrome when engine=lightpanda

Config:
- browser.engine in DEFAULT_CONFIG (auto/lightpanda/chrome)
- AGENT_BROWSER_ENGINE in OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS
- /browser status shows engine info in local mode

Rebased from PR NousResearch#7144 onto current main. All existing code preserved --
pure additions only (+520/-2).

25 new tests + 81 total browser tests pass (0 failures).

The TUI SessionPanel banner now uses collapsible \u25b8/\u25be toggle
sections matching the existing Chevron convention used for runtime
agent details. Skills, system prompt, and MCP server lists are
collapsed by default; tools remain expanded as the most actionable
info.

- tui_gateway/server.py: _session_info() now passes agent._cached_system_prompt
  through to the TUI frontend
- ui-tui/src/types.ts: added system_prompt?: string to SessionInfo
- ui-tui/src/components/branding.tsx: rewrote SessionPanel with
  CollapseToggle helper + per-section useState toggles

Default states: tools=open, skills=collapsed, system=collapsed,
mcp=collapsed. Clicking any \u25b8/\u25be header toggles that section.
System messages over 400 chars (system prompt, AGENTS.md, etc.) now
render as a collapsed \u25b8/\u25be toggle line in the transcript, matching
the Chevron convention used for runtime details. The summary shows
the first line + char count; clicking expands to full content.

On Termux/Android aarch64 (and other platforms without prebuilt wheels
for some optional extras), 'pip install -e .[all]' compiles C/Rust
extensions from source. This can run for several minutes with zero
network activity and — with --quiet — zero stdout. Users report
'hermes update hangs at Updating Python dependencies', Ctrl+C it, then
re-run and see 'up to date' (because git pull already succeeded and the
pip step was still working when they interrupted).

Pip's default output is proportional to actual work (one line per
Collecting / Building wheel for X / Installing), so removing --quiet
costs nothing on fast hardware and prevents the false-hang interrupt
loop on slow hardware.

Reported via Discord on Termux/Android. Supersedes NousResearch#20466 which
misdiagnosed the hang as PYTHONPATH shadowing (install.sh doesn't run
during 'hermes update', and terminal() doesn't inherit PYTHONPATH).
…gression) (NousResearch#20673)

CPython's logging module is not reentrant-safe.  `Logger.isEnabledFor`
caches level results in `Logger._cache`; under shutdown races the cache
can be cleared (`Logger._clear_cache`, triggered by logging config changes
from another thread) or mid-mutation when a signal fires, raising
`KeyError: <level_int>` (e.g. `KeyError: 10` for DEBUG) inside the signal
handler.

When that happens, the KeyError escapes before the `raise KeyboardInterrupt()`
on the next line can fire, which bypasses prompt_toolkit's normal interrupt
unwind and surfaces as the EIO cascade originally reported in NousResearch#13710.

Issue NousResearch#13710 shipped two defenses (asyncio exception handler + outer
`except (KeyError, OSError)` with EIO suppression) that cover the EIO
unwind path.  This patch closes the remaining escape hatch: the
`logger.debug` call at the top of `_signal_handler` itself.  Wrap it in a
bare `try/except Exception: pass` so logging can never raise through a
signal handler.

Observed in the wild: debug report on 0.12.0 (commit 8163d37) shows the
exact stack — KeyError: 10 at logging/__init__.py:1742 inside the
signal handler's `logger.debug`, followed by the EIO cascade from
prompt_toolkit's emergency flush.

Tests: adds `TestSignalHandlerLoggingRace` to
`tests/hermes_cli/test_suppress_eio_on_interrupt.py` with 6 new cases:
- normal path still raises KeyboardInterrupt
- KeyError(10) from logger.debug does not escape
- any Exception from logger.debug is swallowed
- agent.interrupt still fires when logger.debug raises
- agent.interrupt raising also does not escape
- BaseException (SystemExit) is NOT swallowed — guard uses `except Exception`
  deliberately so real shutdown signals still propagate

Closes NousResearch#13710 regression.
The verb-padding change dropped the leading space in durationSegment on
the assumption that the verb's trailing pad always supplies the gap. But
the unicode spinner style sets showVerb=false, making verbSegment an
empty string — in that mode the output would become `{frame}· {duration}`
with no separator. Add the space back; harmless when the verb segment
is shown (its trailing pad still provides the gap).
The Nous DS globals.css applies a global rule:
  code { background: var(--midground); color: var(--background); }

This paints an opaque cream/yellow fill on every <code> element,
which hides text in the kanban drawer's event-payload, run-meta,
and worker-log panes (all rendered as <code>).

Fix: scope a reset inside .hermes-kanban so <code> elements inherit
their parent's color and stay transparent.

Port Shop.app's upstream SKILL.md (https://shop.app/SKILL.md) into
optional-skills/productivity/shop-app/ with Hermes-native adaptations:

- Proper Hermes frontmatter (name, description<=60 chars, version,
  author, license, prerequisites, metadata.hermes tags + related_skills
  + homepage + upstream)
- Swap Shop.app's bespoke 'message()' tool references for Hermes
  conventions: gateway adapters handle platform formatting, so the
  skill just writes markdown (no Telegram/WhatsApp/iMessage sections
  referencing a tool Hermes doesn't ship)
- Name Hermes tools where relevant: curl via 'terminal', HTML policy
  pages via 'web_extract', try-on via 'image_generate'
- Reframe session state as 'hold in your reasoning context for this
  conversation only' and forbid writing tokens to .env / disk — matches
  Hermes ephemeral-memory discipline
- Drop NO_REPLY convention (Shop-app-runtime specific)
- Trigger-first description so the skill loader picks it up when the
  user wants to search products, track orders, returns, or reorder

Replaces the per-directory shadow-repo design with a single shared shadow
git store at ~/.hermes/checkpoints/store/. Object DB is now deduplicated
across every working directory the agent has ever touched; a dozen
worktrees of the same project cost near-zero in additional disk.

Why
---
Pre-v2 design had three compounding problems that let ~/.hermes/checkpoints/
grow to multi-GB on active machines:

1. Each working directory got its own full shadow git repo — no object
   dedup across projects or across worktrees of the same project.
2. _prune() was a documented no-op: max_snapshots only limited the
   /rollback listing. Loose objects accumulated forever.
3. Defaults: enabled=True, auto_prune=False — users paid the disk cost
   without ever asking for /rollback.

Field report on a single workstation: 847 MB across 47 shadow repos,
mostly redundant clones of the hermes-agent source tree.

Changes
-------
- tools/checkpoint_manager.py: full rewrite. Single bare store, per-project
  refs (refs/hermes/<hash>), per-project indexes (store/indexes/<hash>),
  per-project metadata (store/projects/<hash>.json with workdir +
  created_at + last_touch). On first v2 init, any pre-v2 per-directory
  shadow repos are auto-migrated into legacy-<timestamp>/ so the new
  store starts clean. _prune() now actually rewrites the per-project ref
  to the last max_snapshots commits and runs git gc --prune=now. New
  _enforce_size_cap() drops oldest commits round-robin across projects
  when the store exceeds max_total_size_mb. _drop_oversize_from_index()
  filters any single file larger than max_file_size_mb out of the snapshot.
- hermes_cli/checkpoints.py: new 'hermes checkpoints' CLI
  (status / list / prune / clear / clear-legacy) for managing the store
  outside a session.
- hermes_cli/config.py: flipped defaults — enabled=False, max_snapshots=20,
  auto_prune=True. Added max_total_size_mb=500, max_file_size_mb=10.
  Tightened DEFAULT_EXCLUDES (added target/, *.so/*.dylib/*.dll,
  *.mp4/*.mov, *.zip/*.tar.gz, .worktrees/, .mypy_cache/, etc.).
- run_agent.py / cli.py / gateway/run.py: thread the new kwargs through
  AIAgent and the startup auto_prune hooks.
- Tests rewritten to match v2 storage while keeping backwards-compat
  coverage for the pre-v2 prune path (per-directory shadow repos under
  base/ are still swept correctly for anyone mid-migration).
- Docs updated: user-guide/checkpoints-and-rollback.md explains the
  shared store, new defaults, migration, and the new CLI;
  reference/cli-commands.md documents 'hermes checkpoints'.

E2E validated
-------------
- Legacy migration: pre-v2 shadow repos auto-archived into legacy-<ts>/.
- Object dedup: two projects with an identical shared.py blob resolve to
  7 total objects in the store (v1 would have stored the blob twice).
- max_snapshots=3 actually enforced: after 6 commits, list shows 3.
- Orphan prune: deleting a project's workdir + 'hermes checkpoints prune
  --retention-days 0' removes its ref, index, and metadata; GC reclaims
  the objects.
- max_file_size_mb=1 excludes a 2 MB weights.bin while keeping the
  tracked source code files.
- hermes checkpoints {status,prune,clear,clear-legacy} all work from the
  CLI without an agent running.

Breaking / migration
--------------------
No in-place data migration — legacy per-directory shadow repos are moved
into legacy-<timestamp>/ on first run. Old /rollback history is still
accessible by inspecting the archive with git; run
'hermes checkpoints clear-legacy' to reclaim the space when ready. Users
relying on /rollback must now set checkpoints.enabled=true (or pass
--checkpoints) explicitly.
