* feat(extensions): token-v1 proxy->sidecar auth boundary
Mint a per-extension secret core injects (X-Hermes-Sidecar-Token) on every
proxied request; sidecars validate it. Closes the hole where a loopback sidecar
port is reachable by any local process and cannot distinguish a proxied request
from a direct one.
- api/extension_sidecar_auth.py: per-extension token lifecycle (atomic mint,
re-read-verified so an unpersisted token is never injected, per-request
mtime-cached read for live rotation, path-escape-safe)
- manifest proxy_auth negotiation: absent=legacy, token-v1=enforce, unknown=fail-closed
- proxy: inject token, strip inbound + response x-hermes-*, auth-off posture
(loopback-only local_unprotected, else 503), fail-closed when token unavailable
- consent-time auth_required in status payload; mint-on-consent
- docs/EXTENSIONS.md proxy_auth section
- 7 new tests (26/26 green)
* fix(extensions): address Codex+Fable gate on token-v1 (6 findings)
- align token-module extension-id grammar with core _EXTENSION_ID_RE (was
narrower -> legally-named ext consented then 503'd forever)
- resolve token dir dynamically (mirror _extension_state_dir) -> real test
isolation, no import-time STATE_DIR cache
- cross-process mint: O_CREAT|O_EXCL no-clobber claim (was os.replace clobber)
- rotation cache keyed on full fingerprint (ino/dev/mtime/ctime/size) +
re-fingerprint after read -> same-size/mtime replacement no longer stale
- validate token format on read (url-safe, 16-256) -> malformed file can't
leak via a ValueError echoed in a 502
- consent fails 503 when token can't be provisioned (was silent-swallow ->
persisted consent then 503 forever)
- rename status auth_required -> posture enum (protected|local_unprotected):
nothing is blocked for loopback, so 'required' was misleading
- panels.js: render local_unprotected warning on the consent row (+ CSS)
- docs: token-path resolution order, 401-vs-503, explicit 'legacy' acceptance
- tests: route-level token-injection+response-strip test; fix illusory isolation
in token-module test; 27/27 green
* fix(extensions): close 2 token-mint races (Codex re-gate round 2)
- mint via temp-file + atomic os.replace (not O_CREAT|O_EXCL) so the final
path is never observed empty/half-written — a concurrent loser can no longer
read an empty token file and 503
- single _stable_read helper (fingerprint-read-refingerprint, bounded retry on
mid-read change) used by BOTH ensure_token and current_token — a token that
changes during the read is never returned or cached stale
- stress-verified: 20 concurrent first-mints converge on 1 persisted token; 27/27
* fix(extensions): atomic no-clobber token publish via os.link (Codex re-gate round 3)
os.replace fixed empty-file exposure but still clobbered cross-process: two
processes could both write+replace and a reader between them got a token no
longer on disk -> 401. Switch to the repo's TOCTOU-safe os.link create-or-fail
idiom (session_recovery.py:627): write temp -> link into place (fails if a
winner already published) -> loser drops its temp and reads the winner via
_stable_read. Proven: 16 concurrent PROCESSES converge on 1 persisted token,
all matching disk. 27/27 tests green.
* fix(extensions): resolve Frank+Greptile #6331 review — token-v1 fail-closed when auth off (consent+resolution), token-v1-only proxy_auth/posture status fields, fullmatch ext-id validator
* fix(extensions): finish Frank and Greptile sidecar review

EXTENSIONS.md documented the WebUI-side extension infrastructure (loader, manifest,
capabilities incl. settings_schema / skin scheme / TTS engine, install client) but
never linked to hermes-webui/hermes-webui-extensions — the public repo where the
vetted, one-click-installable gallery entries actually live and where new extensions
are contributed.
Adds two cross-links, no behavior change:
- intro callout: points to the library repo + its docs/extension-entry.md, framing
this doc as the infrastructure side and the library repo as where entries live.
- a 'Contributing to the extension library' pointer at the end of the authoring
guidance, describing the entry-PR + CI-safety-gate + registry-publish flow.
Docs-only.
Lets a trusted local extension contribute a TTS engine that appears in the
Settings -> TTS Engine dropdown and is used by BOTH playback paths (voice-mode
auto-read in boot.js _speakResponse + the per-message Listen button in ui.js
speakMessage). Mirrors window.registerHermesSkin.
window.registerHermesTtsEngine({ id, label, synthesize(text, opts) })
-> Promise<ArrayBuffer|Blob> of audio; core coerces + plays through the same
<audio> lifecycle as the Edge engine (stop/rearm in voice mode).
Core owns selection, the dropdown <option> (label via textContent, never HTML),
and playback. Built-in ids (browser/edge/elevenlabs) are reserved; invalid
descriptors are rejected; empty/failed synth degrades gracefully. The settings
panel re-adds registered options on render (the markup hardcodes only built-ins).
Unblocks TTS-engine extensions (e.g. a local VOICEVOX engine). Docs in
docs/EXTENSIONS.md; CHANGELOG [Unreleased]. New regression test drives the real
registry via a Node harness (register/validation/reserved-guard/synth coercion).
Full suite: 10893 passed, 0 failed. Verified end-to-end in a live browser with a
companion VOICEVOX extension: engine registers, appears in the dropdown
(browser/edge/elevenlabs/voicevox), and the Listen button routes through the
registered synthesize (both VOICEVOX steps called).
Found via live browser testing of the first consumer (e-ink skin):
- An extension-registered skin selected by the user was lost on reload: both
the pre-paint inline script in index.html AND the boot-time appearance sync
normalized the persisted skin against the (extension-less) known-skins list
and clobbered localStorage back to 'default' before the extension's
registerHermesSkin() could run. Both sites now PRESERVE an unknown non-default
persisted skin (a likely pending extension skin), so it survives the reload
and the extension re-applies it on load. The server push is skipped for a
still-pending ext skin.
- Expanded the token allowlist to the full accent family
(--accent-hover/-text/-bg/-bg-strong/-rgb + --surface-subtle) so a skin can
fully recolor accent-driven chrome (active rail, chips, profile labels), not
just --accent. Value regex now also accepts a bare RGB triple for --accent-rgb.
Regression tests added for both preservation sites. Full suite: 10876 passed.
Lets a trusted local extension contribute a custom skin to the NATIVE
Settings -> Appearance picker (instead of a parallel theme switcher).
window.registerHermesSkin(descriptor) validates + sanitizes the skin in
core, once, so every theme extension inherits the guard:
- token names restricted to a documented allowlist
- values sanitized against a strict color/dimension regex (rejects url(),
expression(), semicolons, braces, and other CSS-injection vectors)
- reserved built-in skin keys cannot be overwritten
- descriptor with no valid tokens is refused
- idempotent re-register (updates in place) for a live theme editor
Injects a managed <style> for the :root[data-skin] tokens, appends to
_SKINS + _VALID_SKINS, refreshes the picker, and re-applies a persisted
selection that was waiting on a late-registered skin.
Unblocks theme-pack and theme-creator extensions. Documented in
docs/EXTENSIONS.md. Regression test drives the real registration +
sanitization logic via a Node harness (adversarial input).
Full suite: 10874 passed, 0 failed.
Adds a configurable frame-src directive so an extension can embed a
self-hosted web app in an iframe (e.g. an 'external app tab' pinning
Grafana / Vaultwarden / a dashboard). Mirrors the existing
HERMES_WEBUI_CSP_CONNECT_EXTRA knob: space-separated http(s) origins with
optional *.subdomain wildcard + port, validated, ignored if malformed
(directive-injection / paths / ws scheme / bad ports all rejected).
- Default frame-src is 'self' only, so existing same-origin iframes are
unchanged; default-off when the env var is unset.
- frame-ancestors stays 'none' -- this only governs what THIS page may embed,
never who may embed the WebUI.
- Threaded through both the enforced and report-only CSP builders + the
server.py Handler wrapper, so both headers stay identical.
Docs in docs/EXTENSIONS.md. 8 new regression tests
(tests/test_csp_frame_src_extra.py) cover default, valid widening, enforced
parity, directive-injection rejection, path/ws/port rejection, and
connect/frame independence. Existing CSP test suite still green.
Note: full suite shows 2 pre-existing order-dependent flakes
(test_issue1574 spawn-context, test_issue3283 import-order) that pass in
isolation and are untouched by this CSP-only diff.
Renders generic registry post_install guidance + lifecycle requirements in the
Settings extensions gallery card (manifest-driven, no vendor special-casing).
Fixes#4959. Rebased onto current master (squash-applied #4964's net diff so it
coexists with the #4979 sidecar-runtime-status feature that landed in v0.51.697).

Settings -> Extensions offered an Install button even when extensions were
unconfigured, then dead-ended on 'Extensions not configured' because
install_extension required HERMES_WEBUI_EXTENSION_DIR to be set to an existing
directory. Default to a WebUI-managed root under STATE_DIR/extensions and
bootstrap it on first install so install just works with zero config; the env
var remains an optional override (never auto-created). Gallery-installed
extensions already auto-load via the runtime manifest, so the extension loads
on the next app-shell render with no further setup.
- api/extensions.py: _default_extension_root + _writable_extension_root;
_extension_root/_extension_root_status fall back to the managed default;
install_extension bootstraps via _writable_extension_root; dir-unavailable
warning only fires for an explicitly-set-but-broken env path.
- tests: update disabled-by-default expectations (configured=True, valid=False
pre-install) + new regression proving install bootstraps + auto-loads with
no env.
- docs/EXTENSIONS.md: document zero-config one-click install + env now optional.
- CHANGELOG [Unreleased].
UI enable/disable of installed manifest extensions via a bounded fail-safe
extension-overrides.json state file. Safe boundary: no manifest edits, no asset
fetches, no sidecar proxy, no extension-owned routes. /api/extensions/toggle is
auth+CSRF gated; anchored _EXTENSION_ID_RE (no path traversal); atomic UTF-8 write
under _EXTENSION_STATE_LOCK; 32KiB/512-id DoS bounds; disabled override suppresses
asset/sidecar injection end-to-end. Nathan greenlit the extensions-phase-2 concept.
Code byte-faithful from PR head 8769b4a3902e. 49 own tests pass.

* stage #4612 (santastabber): surface loopback sidecar diagnostics + CHANGELOG
Settings -> Extensions surfaces manifest-declared loopback sidecar companion services
(type:loopback, http(s) on 127.0.0.1/localhost/::1 only, sanitized origin+health_path)
as read-only health cards w/ a browser-side credentials-omitted health probe. Backend
hard-whitelists scheme + loopback host, rejects userinfo/path/query/traversal, rebuilds
output from parsed components (no echo of rejected input); frontend esc()'s every field,
whitelists badge status, fetch never reads body. Purely additive to GET /api/extensions/status.
Code applied byte-faithful from PR head 7080929f3727. 33 own tests pass.
Nathan concept-approved (loopback-companion direction).

* fix#4612 Codex gate findings: reject encoded query/fragment in health_path + align CSP loopback allowlist
Codex SHIP-WITH-FIXES (2 reproduced SILENT findings):
1. _normalize_sidecar_health_path percent-decoded AFTER the raw query/fragment ban,
so /health%3Ftoken=abc -> ?token=abc survived into the probed URL. Now re-rejects
decoded ? and # + regression test (%3F/%23 skipped with sidecar_health_path_rejected).
2. The origin validator accepts https:// and [::1], but CSP connect-src only listed
http 127.0.0.1/localhost -> accepted https/IPv6 loopback sidecars would be CSP-blocked.
Aligned _CSP_CONNECT_BASE (added https v4/localhost + http(s) [::1]) + updated the 4
exact-string CSP tests + a regression test asserting all loopback forms are allowed.

* Release v0.51.564 — Release TW (loopback sidecar diagnostics; #4612)
* fix(#4612): drop browser-invalid [::1]:* CSP source (browser-smoke fail)
The CSP-loopback-alignment fix added http(s)://[::1]:* to connect-src, but CSP
host-source grammar can't express a port wildcard on a bracketed IPv6 literal —
Chromium rejects '[::1]:*' as an invalid source, which browser-smoke flags as a
console error (CI fail). Keep the valid https://127.0.0.1:*/localhost:* additions;
drop the IPv6 wildcard entries. IPv6 [::1] sidecars are still accepted by the
validator (displayed in the card); their browser health probe surfaces as
'blocked' under CSP unless an operator adds a specific-port [::1]:<port> via
HERMES_WEBUI_CSP_CONNECT_EXTRA. Tests updated to match + assert [::1]:* absent.

REQUIRED:
- _fully_unquote_path range(3) -> range(10) — defense-in-depth so quadruple-
encoded .. is rejected by validator instead of slipping through (not
exploitable but contract violation)
- docs/EXTENSIONS.md trust-model callout moved to top of file with explicit
'don't enable in untrusted env / don't point at user-writable dir' guidance
NICE-TO-HAVE (taken since Nathan asked for all fixes big and small):
- URL list cap at _MAX_URL_LIST=32 to avoid pathological rendering
- One-shot WARNING log for rejected URLs (silent drop now visible to admin)
- One-shot WARNING log for URL list truncation
- MIME map: ttf (font/ttf), otf (font/otf), wasm (application/wasm)
5 regression tests in tests/test_pr1445_opus_followups.py pin all invariants.
