Both pre-release reviewers (Opus advisor + Codex regression gate) converged on
the same MUST-FIX:
- #3194: treating gateway_stale_stopped_state as 'configured' contradicted
#1944 (a stopped root gateway should read like 'not configured' so the
banner doesn't nag). Now ONLY stale-RUNNING metadata
(reason=gateway_stale_running_state or gateway_state=='running') flips
configured=True; stale-stopped falls through to bool(identity_map) like the
genuinely-unconfigured case. Updated the test accordingly + added a
stale-stopped no-regression test.
Opus follow-ups also applied:
- #2905: narrowed the populated-home markers to WebUI-only artifacts
(webui/, webui/sessions, webui/settings.json), dropping config.yaml/auth.json
so a long-time agent user installing WebUI fresh isn't wrongly diverted to
the legacy %USERPROFILE%\.hermes (auth.json predates #2897 there).
- profiles._resolve_base_hermes_home(): narrowed except Exception -> ImportError
so a real bug in the config helper still surfaces.
Adjacent suites green: #2840, #1879, gateway_status_agent_health (66 tests).
Two urgent breaking bugs that had no PR, combined into one hotfix.
#2905 (data-loss-class): v0.51.134 moved the Windows default Hermes home
from %USERPROFILE%\.hermes to %LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes (PR #2897) with no
migration, so upgrading Windows users opened the app to empty
sessions/pins/settings (data intact on disk, at an address the new build
no longer read). _platform_default_hermes_home() now prefers the populated
legacy home ONLY when the new location is not yet established —
non-destructive (no file moves) and self-healing on next launch.
profiles._resolve_base_hermes_home() delegates to the same config helper so
the active-profile pointer can never drift from STATE_DIR.
#3194: GET /api/gateway/status reported 'Gateway not configured' on a fresh
two-container Docker deploy because an alive=None + gateway_stale_running_state
health payload with an empty identity_map fell through to
configured=bool(identity_map)=False. The alive=None branch now treats a
payload carrying gateway metadata (gateway_state detail, or a stale-running/
stale-stopped reason) as configured.
Tests: +17 regression tests (11 for #2905 incl. full truth table + non-destructive
guard + POSIX no-op; 6 for #3194 incl. 5 no-regression guards). Full suite
7090 passed, 0 failed.
