SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Hermes TUI slash commands can fail due to misalignment between the Python backend, gateway, and Ink frontend, leading to missing autocomplete, broken command execution, or inconsistent behavior across layers.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Identifies misalignment between COMMAND_REGISTRY, gateway dispatch, and frontend slash handlers.
  • Provides step-by-step investigation and debugging tactics for common failure modes.
  • Useful when autocomplete is missing, a command does not execute, or UI state is inconsistent across reloads.

Quick Start

Run the Hermes TUI and trigger a slash command to reproduce the failure, then observe logs and traces to locate the source of the issue.

FAQPage Schema
Why do my Hermes TUI slash commands fail to appear in autocomplete or execute incorrectly?

Hermes TUI slash commands fail when the Python backend, gateway, and Ink frontend are misaligned. You must verify consistency across the COMMAND_REGISTRY, gateway dispatch, and frontend slash handlers to resolve missing autocomplete or broken execution.

How do I debug slash commands that are inconsistently mirrored across the Python backend, gateway, and frontend?

To debug inconsistently mirrored slash commands, reproduce the failure in the Hermes TUI, then trace logs to locate the source. Check that the COMMAND_REGISTRY, gateway dispatch, and Ink frontend slash handlers are synchronized across all layers.

What causes local state synchronization issues with Hermes TUI commands during reloads?

Local state synchronization issues occur when the Ink frontend loses consistency with the Python backend and gateway during reloads. Investigating the COMMAND_REGISTRY and slash handlers ensures the UI state properly mirrors the backend command definitions.

Do I need access to all three layers to diagnose Hermes TUI command integration failures?

Yes, diagnosing Hermes TUI command integration requires access to the Python backend code, gateway implementation, and Ink frontend. Validating consistency across these three layers is necessary to identify where slash commands fail to dispatch or execute.

What is the best way to investigate a Hermes TUI slash command that does not execute?

The best way to investigate a non-executing slash command is to run the Hermes TUI, trigger the command to reproduce the failure, and observe logs to locate the issue. Verify that gateway dispatch correctly routes to the Python backend handlers.

Can I use this debugging approach if only the Ink frontend slash autocomplete is broken?

Yes, if Ink frontend slash autocomplete is broken, the debugging approach applies by tracing the command from the frontend back to the Python backend. It checks whether the COMMAND_REGISTRY correctly populates the frontend autocomplete suggestions.
