Close the four integration gaps preventing full HERM-01 through HERM-04 compliance for the already-installed hermes-paperclip-adapter.
Purpose: The Hermes adapter is fully implemented and registered but has four small wiring issues: missing SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS entry (orphan reaping broken), create-mode toolsets bug (extraArgs corruption), duplicate gemini_local in constants, and missing session codec test.
Output: All four gaps closed; existing hermes-dual-source tests still pass; new session codec test passes.

From server/src/services/heartbeat.ts (line 72-79):
```typescript
const SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS = new Set([
"claude_local",
"codex_local",
"cursor",
"gemini_local",
"opencode_local",
"pi_local",
]);
```
From packages/shared/src/constants.ts (line 24-36):
```typescript
export const AGENT_ADAPTER_TYPES = [
"process",
"http",
"claude_local",
"codex_local",
"gemini_local",
"opencode_local",
"pi_local",
"cursor",
"openclaw_gateway",
"hermes_local",
"gemini_local", // <-- duplicate to remove
] as const;
```
From hermes-paperclip-adapter/server sessionCodec API:
```typescript
sessionCodec.deserialize(raw: Record): { sessionId: string }
sessionCodec.serialize(params: { sessionId: string }): { sessionId: string }
sessionCodec.getDisplayId(serialized: Record | null): string
```
From ui/src/adapters/hermes-local/config-fields.tsx:
- `isCreate` boolean prop controls create vs edit mode
- In create mode: `values!` and `set!()` for CreateConfigValues
- In edit mode: `eff()` and `mark()` for adapterConfig fields
- Toolsets field (lines 70-89) incorrectly uses `values!.extraArgs` / `set!({ extraArgs: v })` in create mode
Task 1: Fix heartbeat sessioned adapters and deduplicate constants
server/src/services/heartbeat.ts, packages/shared/src/constants.ts
- server/src/services/heartbeat.ts (lines 70-80 — SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS set)
- packages/shared/src/constants.ts (lines 24-36 — AGENT_ADAPTER_TYPES array)
1. In `server/src/services/heartbeat.ts`, add `"hermes_local"` to the `SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS` Set (line 72-79). Add it after `"pi_local"` to keep alphabetical grouping. This ensures the orphan-process liveness check in heartbeat correctly handles detached Hermes child processes after server restart. (HERM-03)
2. In `packages/shared/src/constants.ts`, remove the duplicate `"gemini_local"` entry from `AGENT_ADAPTER_TYPES` array. The array currently has `"gemini_local"` at positions ~line 29 AND ~line 35. Remove the SECOND occurrence (the one after `"hermes_local"`). Keep the first one. (Cleanup supporting HERM-01)
cd /opt/nexus && grep -n "hermes_local" server/src/services/heartbeat.ts && node -e "const c = require('./packages/shared/src/constants.ts'); " 2>/dev/null; grep -c "gemini_local" packages/shared/src/constants.ts | xargs -I{} test {} -eq 1 && echo "DEDUP OK" || echo "DEDUP FAIL"
- grep "hermes_local" server/src/services/heartbeat.ts returns a match inside SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS
- grep -c "gemini_local" packages/shared/src/constants.ts returns exactly 1
- pnpm --filter server exec tsc --noEmit passes
hermes_local is in SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS; AGENT_ADAPTER_TYPES has no duplicate gemini_local; TypeScript compiles cleanly
Task 2: Fix create-mode toolsets field in HermesLocalConfigFields
ui/src/adapters/hermes-local/config-fields.tsx
- ui/src/adapters/hermes-local/config-fields.tsx (full file — 128 lines)
- ui/node_modules/hermes-paperclip-adapter/dist/ui/build-config.js (buildHermesConfig — to understand extraArgs handling)
In `ui/src/adapters/hermes-local/config-fields.tsx`, wrap the Toolsets field (the `` block, lines 70-89) inside the existing `{!isCreate && ( ... )}` guard that already wraps "Persist session" and "Timeout" fields (lines 90-125). This hides toolsets from the create form entirely. (HERM-02)
Rationale: `CreateConfigValues` has no `toolsets` field. The current code maps toolsets input to `extraArgs`, but `buildHermesConfig` splits `extraArgs` by whitespace into raw CLI flags — so "terminal,file,web" would become a broken CLI arg, not `-t terminal,file,web`. Toolsets default to "all" when unset, which is the correct default for new agents. Users configure toolsets post-creation via the edit form where `mark("adapterConfig", "toolsets", ...)` works correctly.
The fix: Move the Toolsets `` block (lines 70-89) to be inside the `{!isCreate && (<> ... >)}` block that starts at line 90. The final structure should be:
```
{!isCreate && (
<>
...
...
...
>
)}
```
Remove the create-mode branch from the Toolsets DraftInput value/onCommit props since the field will only render in edit mode now.
cd /opt/nexus && grep -A2 "Toolsets" ui/src/adapters/hermes-local/config-fields.tsx | head -5 && pnpm --filter ui exec tsc --noEmit 2>&1 | tail -5
- grep -B5 "Toolsets" ui/src/adapters/hermes-local/config-fields.tsx shows it is inside !isCreate guard
- The Toolsets Field no longer references values!.extraArgs
- pnpm --filter ui exec tsc --noEmit passes
Toolsets field only renders in edit mode; create-mode agents get default "all" toolsets; no extraArgs corruption; TypeScript compiles
Task 3: Add hermes session codec test
server/src/__tests__/adapter-session-codecs.test.ts
- server/src/__tests__/adapter-session-codecs.test.ts (full file — existing codec tests as pattern)
In `server/src/__tests__/adapter-session-codecs.test.ts`, add a hermes session codec test block. (HERM-04)
1. Add import at top of file:
```typescript
import { sessionCodec as hermesSessionCodec } from "hermes-paperclip-adapter/server";
```
2. Add a new test inside the `describe("adapter session codecs", ...)` block, following the exact pattern of the existing tests (e.g., the claude test at lines 18-34):
```typescript
it("normalizes hermes session params", () => {
const parsed = hermesSessionCodec.deserialize({
sessionId: "hermes-session-1",
});
expect(parsed).toEqual({
sessionId: "hermes-session-1",
});
const serialized = hermesSessionCodec.serialize(parsed);
expect(serialized).toEqual({
sessionId: "hermes-session-1",
});
expect(hermesSessionCodec.getDisplayId?.(serialized ?? null)).toBe("hermes-session-1");
});
it("normalizes hermes legacy session_id key", () => {
const parsed = hermesSessionCodec.deserialize({
session_id: "hermes-legacy-456",
});
expect(parsed).toEqual({
sessionId: "hermes-legacy-456",
});
expect(hermesSessionCodec.getDisplayId?.(hermesSessionCodec.serialize(parsed) ?? null)).toBe("hermes-legacy-456");
});
```
Note: Hermes session params do NOT include a `cwd` field (unlike claude/codex/cursor/gemini). The hermes adapter only tracks `sessionId`.
cd /opt/nexus && pnpm --filter server exec vitest run src/__tests__/adapter-session-codecs.test.ts 2>&1 | tail -20
- grep "hermes" server/src/__tests__/adapter-session-codecs.test.ts returns matches for import and test cases
- pnpm --filter server exec vitest run src/__tests__/adapter-session-codecs.test.ts shows all tests passing including new hermes tests
- Test covers both camelCase sessionId and legacy snake_case session_id deserialization
Hermes session codec has round-trip tests covering serialize, deserialize, getDisplayId, and legacy key variant; all adapter-session-codecs tests pass
After all tasks complete:
1. Hermes-specific tests pass:
```
pnpm --filter server exec vitest run src/__tests__/adapter-session-codecs.test.ts src/__tests__/hermes-dual-source.test.ts
```
2. TypeScript compiles for both server and UI:
```
pnpm --filter server exec tsc --noEmit && pnpm --filter ui exec tsc --noEmit
```
3. Full test suite (sampling):
```
pnpm --filter server exec vitest run
```
- hermes_local is in SESSIONED_LOCAL_ADAPTERS — orphan process liveness checks work
- AGENT_ADAPTER_TYPES has exactly one gemini_local entry — no duplicates
- Toolsets field only appears in edit mode — no extraArgs corruption on create
- Hermes session codec has 2 passing tests covering standard and legacy key formats
- All existing tests continue to pass (no regressions)
