feat(0.25): Access Engine on current main by PabloTheThinker · Pull Request #8 · PabloTheThinker/hermespace

PabloTheThinker · 2026-08-06T03:35:16Z

This is 0.25 Access Engine on current main (bc624439, the merge of PR #9).

Single land PR. Do not open a second Access Engine PR. Do not squash Cube, Insight, or sibling repos into this tree. No consciousness claims.

Two-turn cognition (this revision)

Both functions on this PR. No pending_silent pump. No oew_broadcast on the inject.

silent_chain_strip — last 3 hub silent lines, gist-filtered against the current user message, cap 8. Appended after bound_strip in on_pre_llm_call and Workflow.run. Skip high/protect. Header: ### Silent (prior).
Live-goal refresh — message_is_new_goal + Workflow.run. If the operator left goal empty and the new message is not gist-contained in the live goal: park the previous goal (same park_goal path), live goal becomes the message, re-derive plan (derive_plan_steps, strip leading now/please/just/okay), clear leftover say so next_action_line rebuilds. A restatement keeps goal/plan/say.

Same HERMESPACE_HOME, same session, empty-say:

T1  Write a short README for the auth fix, then stop.
T2  Now write the install section.

Turn	Report	Plan	Inject
T1	Write the README	`Write a short README for the auth fix` / `Stop`	hub silent `['Stop']`
T2	Write the install section	`[Write the install section]`	`### Silent (prior)` and `plan: Stop`. 1073 chars (≤2800). Not a restate of T2.
`thanks`	skip (`trivial_ack`)	—	silent `['Stop']` not wiped

T2 report does not stay Write the README. It mentions install.

Desk quality — leftover after-state

Empty-say live command:

hermespace turn -m "Write a short README for the auth fix, then stop." --json

Field	Result
Report line 1	`Write the README`
Plan	`["Write a short README for the auth fix", "Stop"]`
desk.focus	bind + `Write the README` (no `lang_stream:`)
Silent park	`Stop` only (user-sentence echo not parked)
Lens heading	`## Access lens (harness workspace)`

Gates (this revision)

Gate	Result
unittest	PASS 179 (1 skipped)
week-one C1 T1 L1 M1	PASS (Q1 NOT RUN — no judge)
smoke	9/9 from parent cwd
`thanks` / `trivial_ack`	still skips

Case	Result	Notes
C1	PASS	Space-on context 1380 chars (≤2800), FOA ≤4. Space-off injects nothing.
T1	PASS	Previous parked. Live goal = Write docs. Report line 1 = `Open README.`
L1	PASS	Parked 2 silent intermediates from assistant text. FOA 2≤4, hub 2≤25. Fluent ack parked nothing.
M1	PASS	Needle survived new session. `cube_beat` not called when `memory.provider=hermescube`.
Q1	NOT RUN	No judge provider in the tree.

Close-out

feat(0.24): Hermespace Access Engine — open access workspace for Hermes #7 superseded — do not merge.
chore: purge ILO / Parallax / off-focus product fingerprints #6 not merged as written.
feat(0.25): Access Engine on current main #10 closed — this is the only land vehicle.

Context budgets

One user-message inject. Mid ≤2.8k, high/protect ≤900, hard cap 8500. FOA≤4, silent≤8. Dual decode: Report line 1 = next action.

Self-model

Product language: self-model / self-trace / improve. Never “true self-conscious.”

Out of scope

Do not merge feat(0.24): Hermespace Access Engine — open access workspace for Hermes #7, chore: purge ILO / Parallax / off-focus product fingerprints #6, or #14. Do not touch Insight fix(scripts): fall back to python when python3 is unavailable #3.
Do not squash Cube, Insight, or sibling repos into this tree.
Do not restore the J-space product name. Do not claim phenomenal consciousness.
Do not add a pending_silent pump on every material turn.

Research Hermes Agent Quicksilver/Judgment updates and invent the Obligatory External Workspace (OEW) path to make Hermespace the functional J-space of Hermes agents. - Add deep assessment + OEW thesis + phased roadmap - Move jspace into src/hermespace/jspace/ (hub, env, protocol) - Reorganize docs into jspace/assessment/architecture/integration/ops/research/roadmap - Soft-wire ProtocolGate into workflow meta (HERMESPACE_OEW) - Add LAYOUT.md and planned turn/memory/warehouse package READMEs Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Make Hermespace the causal J-space for connected Hermes agents: - Auto-park silent intermediates on every material turn - Sticky Soccer→Rugby swap reshapes Report + silent chain - Reflect seeds next mid-band; ablate filters model broadcast - Wire OEW through workflow + hermes_bridge + session-end harvest - Quicksilver inject caps; experiments/oew_eval.py paper scenarios - HERMESPACE_OEW defaults to 1 (set 0 to soften) Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Deepen the research bridge (Baars GWT, Changeux/Dehaene GNW, Anthropic J-space + Dehaene commentary) and prove higher-order behavior for day-to-day Hermes use: - docs/jspace/29 + 30 (research + daily usage) - experiments/day_in_life_oew.py — 12/12 paper-shaped scenarios - Enforce hub ≤25 capacity bottleneck in JSpace._recompete - CI test runs the day-in-life harness Proof: selectivity, ignition, hold-while-report, silent dual-decode, France→China swap, inject, ablate, CRT reflect seed, workflow, night harvest, capacity, C2 audit. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Capture how Anthropic's X video/thread says J-space is operated (read, audit, shape; deliberate vs automatic; hidden goals) and make that the Hermes-base product surface: - docs/jspace/31-anthropic-x-video-deep-dive.md - docs/jspace/32-hermes-base-as-jspace.md - hermespace.HermesBase facade + hs base CLI - tests/test_hermes_base.py Thesis: Hermes Agent = specialists; Hermespace OEW = J-space; HermesCube = enduring memory Anthropic's model alone lacks. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

When a Hermes agent connects through Hermespace, charge Cube/standalone wisdom into WorldModel, seed the OEW hub, and surface optional hive peer presence. HermesBase.connect / hs base connect|room; living assessment maps Anthropic/Baars/Dehaene memories to the Cube-as-core design. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Merge FOA hub, OEW, dual decode, connect, lens/audit/scalpel, and harvest into one J-Space Engine for Hermes Agent — warehouse optional. Fixes: silent inject double-hold, Workbench second beat, double hub sync, fragmented night harvest. Adds access_roles, metrics, chain, probe, and plugin user_reply_hint. HermesBase becomes a thin alias. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Rename product surface away from third-party J-space naming: AccessEngine, AccessHub, AccessEnv, hermespace.access, hs access. Keep hermespace.jspace as a deprecated shim only. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Land the remaining operational-desk work on Access Engine rebased onto current main: - Insight soft-import (bounded perceive card, fail-soft, high-load skip) - Skip or shrink cube_beat when Hermes memory.provider already prefetched - World projects from the Cube book instead of a second JSONL archive - plugin.yaml provides_hooks for all 9 hooks plus advisory python_dependencies - Drop leftover ILO_HOME / ilo-finish-report strings without brand blocklists Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Hang the Insight strip beside cube_beat on pre_llm_call only. Feature-detect HermesInsight.perceive_card; skip until that method exists. Do not format perceive() output or call plan on the hot path. Skip entirely on high/protect load. AccessEngine.turn no longer injects Insight. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Config-only single-pump: if Hermes memory.provider is hermescube, do not call cube_beat / center.supply / build_space_inject on pre_llm. MemoryManager already prefetched. Empty prefetch leaves no second strip. pulse_charge and sync_world_beliefs stay on idle/enter/seal. No MemoryProvider in Space. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Fail-soft: missing or corrupt memory.provider config means provider off, so pre_llm still runs cube_beat. Skip only when provider is confirmed hermescube. Insight still never calls recall / perceive / insight_beat. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Steal execute/focus shapes from hermes-audhd-skills without vendoring it. One live goal; park others as Name — state — next crumb. Report line 1 is the next action; lists cap at 5; never quiz as the lead. Fabric-hint audhd-* SKILL.md when present; skip emotion and skip if missing. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Steal grokbot doctor/enable shape only. Doctor fails when the plugin, skill, or plugins.enabled entry is missing. Install appends hermespace and never replaces Cube, Insight, or grokbot. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Plugin paints Goal · FOA≤4 · parked · sealed decision from the existing hs view snapshot. Core owns input: no mic, no orb, no second capture path. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Stop injecting the operator lens readout into model context. On the existing post_llm hook, park 1-3 silent steps extracted from the actual assistant text. The model must not see the operator lens as its J-space. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Hard protocol line in the inject. post_llm checks the actual utterance and reseeds if the bound intervention was ignored. Swaps that do not change the next Report are theater. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Name only — no args or results. Hub moves when tools fire so the observe-only FOA chip updates mid-turn from the existing snapshot. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

…abled hs install / install_hermes.sh copy Space, then offer optional organs. Always append to plugins.enabled. Set memory.provider=hermescube only when unset. Doctor FAILs if Space is broken; WARNs if Cube/Insight missing. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Register pre_tool_call, on_skill_lifecycle, kanban claimed/completed, and pre_verify as optional fail-open observers. Mid-load inject cap is strictly under 9k. on_session_finalize harvest has a 10s fail-open budget. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Community README/PURPOSE: desk plus optional Cube library and Insight pattern card behind one unioned plugins.enabled. No product rename. No weight-access claim. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Keep one user-message inject under mid ≤2.8k / high ≤900. Skip fluent ack, pinned protect, missing organs, and shared-hub subagents. Park a capped self-trace on the hub (goal, decision, tool:name, Report line) and seal one-line improve into Cube when present. No consciousness claim. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Four isolated fixture cases, Space-on vs HERMESPACE_OFF. No scores, no leaderboard. Q1 stays NOT RUN — no judge provider in the tree. Cube and Insight stay optional. Fluent ack parks nothing. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Empty-say turns derive a real plan and lead with next_action_line instead of dumping production/partner slots or the filler execute. FOA collapses near-duplicate gists to distinct clauses. Root plugin entry loads src/hermespace via importlib so a checkout named hermespace cannot shadow the package. Operator lens title is no longer J-Lens readout. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Match the proven empty-say cut, then tighten leftovers: desk.focus keeps one bind instead of prefixed copies; hub/neural collapse lang_stream and containment dups; empty say leads with a short verb phrase (Write the README) via next_action_line. Root plugin pops the shim from sys.modules before importing register. Lens title is Access lens (harness workspace); sanitizer still treats J-Lens readout as dirty. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Empty-say lead is compress_action_phrase(plan[0]) (drop short/a/an). FOA/hub/neural drop lang_stream and user-sentence echoes; bind + Write the README remain. OEW skips gist-contained candidates and still parks distinct Stop. Quality test asserts this live turn. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Hub already keeps T1 silent_steps. Append last-3 gist-filtered lines after bound_strip so the agent sees parked thought on the next inject. No pending_silent pump, no broadcast, no lens. Skip high/protect. Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>

Empty-goal T2 that is not a restatement parks the previous goal, re-derives plan (strip now/please/just), and clears leftover say. Hub silent still rides the inject as ### Silent (prior). Co-authored-by: Pablo <PabloTheThinker@users.noreply.github.com>
