SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps developers identify, reproduce, and resolve issues where Hermes TUI slash commands fail to appear, misbehave, or are inconsistently dispatched across Python backend, TUI gateway, and the Ink frontend.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Cross-layer diagnostic workflow for Python backend command registry, gateway dispatch, and frontend slash handling.
  • Verification of command visibility, autocomplete mappings, and local UI handlers to ensure consistent behavior.
  • Real-world scenarios include missing autocomplete entries, CLI/TUI misalignment, and commands not dispatching to the correct handler.

Quick Start

Run Hermes in TUI mode, reproduce the slash command issue, and follow the debugging tactics to locate the malfunction.

FAQPage Schema
How do I fix a missing slash command in my TUI autocomplete?

Fixing a missing TUI slash command in autocomplete requires tracing the command registration across the Python backend, TUI gateway, and Ink frontend. The debugging workflow checks cross-layer visibility mappings to locate and resolve the missing autocomplete entry.

Why does my slash command behave inconsistently between the CLI and TUI?

Slash commands behave inconsistently between CLI and TUI due to misalignment in gateway dispatch or frontend handling. Diagnosing this involves verifying command visibility and local UI handlers to ensure consistent behavior across both interfaces.

How do I debug a slash command that fails to dispatch through the TUI gateway?

Debugging a slash command failing to dispatch through the TUI gateway involves checking the Python backend command registry and gateway routing. You must verify cross-layer registration and frontend slash handling to identify the dispatch breakdown.

Do I need to rebuild the Ink frontend after updating Python backend slash commands?

Rebuilding the Ink frontend is often necessary after updating Python backend slash commands to ensure frontend slash handling reflects the latest registry changes. The debugging workflow includes rebuild guidance to synchronize cross-layer command behavior.

What is the best way to diagnose cross-layer slash command registration issues?

The best way to diagnose cross-layer slash command registration issues is running a diagnostic workflow that verifies the Python backend command registry, gateway dispatch, and frontend autocomplete mappings to pinpoint the exact layer causing the failure.
