hermes --tui launches the native OpenTUI engine (Bun) when
HERMES_TUI_ENGINE=opentui (env) or display.tui_engine=opentui (config);
Ink stays the default and the shipping path is untouched.
- _resolve_tui_engine() (env > config > ink); refuses opentui on
Windows/Termux (no Bun) -> falls back to ink with a notice.
- _make_opentui_argv() -> [bun, src/entry.real.tsx] (no build step).
- _bun_bin() with HERMES_BUN override.
- Branch at top of _make_tui_argv BEFORE _ensure_tui_node (Bun-only host
must not bootstrap Node).
- Gate _launch_tui NODE_OPTIONS/--max-old-space-size on engine==ink (Bun
is JSC; the V8 flag errors/ignores).
Verified end-to-end via tmux: real hermes --tui -> Bun -> OpenTUI ->
real Python gateway streamed a real reply. No-flag default still ink.
* chore(skills): remove red-team skills (godmode, obliteratus) from bundled catalog
Anthropic's output classifier on claude-fable-5 (and likely other Claude
models served through it) intermittently returns empty content for sessions
whose system prompt advertises these skills. The bundled skills-catalog block
is injected into every session's system prompt, so the descriptions
- red-teaming/godmode 'Jailbreak LLMs: Parseltongue, GODMODE, ULTRAPLINIAN'
- mlops/inference/obliteratus 'OBLITERATUS: abliterate LLM refusals (diff-in-means)'
trip the classifier on EVERY session regardless of which skill is actually
loaded, killing unrelated legitimate work (PR review, codebase audits, etc.).
Measured impact (controlled, interleaved A/B, claude-fable-5 via OpenRouter,
prompts differing only by the ~204 chars of these catalog lines, N=20 each):
catalog lines present -> 19/20 (95%) blocked
catalog lines absent -> 5/20 (25%) blocked
Removing them ~quartered the block rate. Rewording the descriptions was not
enough; the skills must leave the bundled catalog.
- Delete skills/red-teaming/godmode and skills/mlops/inference/obliteratus
- Drop their generated doc pages + catalog/sidebar entries (EN + zh-Hans)
- Drop the godmode hand-written-page exception in generate-skill-docs.py
* chore(skills): relocate godmode + obliteratus to optional-skills
Rather than deleting outright, move both into optional-skills/ so they remain
installable via `hermes skills install` while leaving the always-injected
bundled catalog (which is what tripped Anthropic's classifier).
- optional-skills/security/godmode (was skills/red-teaming/godmode)
- optional-skills/mlops/obliteratus (was skills/mlops/inference/obliteratus)
- regenerate optional-skills catalog + sidebar entries
Translates the full English docs corpus (335 files) into Simplified
Chinese under website/i18n/zh-Hans/. Combined with PR #31895 (cross-
locale link fix), the 简体中文 locale toggle now serves a complete
Chinese site with working cross-page navigation.
Pipeline:
- Claude Sonnet 4.6 via OpenRouter, 8-way concurrent
- Preserves frontmatter keys, code blocks, MDX/JSX, link URLs, brand
names, and technical jargon (prompt/token/hook/MCP/ACP/etc.)
- Translates only frontmatter title/description and prose
- Two largest files (configuration.md 93KB, research-paper-writing.md
107KB) retried with 64K max_tokens after initial fence-drift
- 3 manual post-fixes for MDX edge cases the model didn't escape:
< in optional-skills-catalog table, double-quotes in an alt= tag,
and a bare URL adjacent to a full-width period
Cost: ~$30 total (Sonnet 4.6 input $3/M + output $15/M).
Verified `npm run build` succeeds for both en and zh-Hans locales,
no double-prefixed /docs/zh-Hans/docs/ URLs in rendered output,
all in-page navigation resolves correctly.
Translations are machine-generated and may need human review on
specific pages — but they're an enormous improvement over the
previous state (3 zh-Hans pages out of 335).
