data_loss:platform:uncommitted-workspace-state (owner: platform) โ Uncommitted files/state in a live repo checkout or ~/.hermes/ silently vanish on a container/workspace reset, forcing manual reconstruction from session-log archaeology. This is the second sighting of the pattern (first flagged as a swarm-health item on 07-13 for ryanwalden + justinhromalik's independent cron-state rebuilds), and per the skill's own rule a second sighting promotes a silent-infra-failure from health-mention to a tracked loop. Yesterday's fresh instance: eugenecho discovered demos/esolutions-onboarding-demo/ โ built the day before for the Srini/eSolutions First pitch โ had completely disappeared from disk, having never been git added. Rebuilt it byte-for-byte from the session transcript and committed it this time (PR #91, merged).None. No fresh resolution evidence surfaced for any of the 5 carried loops (tool_failing:ryanwalden:cronjob actually recurred again yesterday โ see below).
All five loops carried from prior nights crossed their 7-day escalation yesterday โ the ledger had gone quiet 07-14/07-15, so several loops jump straight from "aging" to "a week old" in one brief:
tool_failing:ryanwalden:cronjob (9 days old) โ still live: justinhromalik independently hit the exact same Unknown cron action 'show' error yesterday while diagnosing why the hive-dream cron missed a run (cronjob(action="show") โ {"error": "Unknown cron action 'show'"}). Two different agents hitting the identical bug over 9 days with zero fix attempts โ this is now the oldest, most cross-cutting open loop.tool_failing:ryanwalden:search_files (9 days old) โ no fresh recurrence spotted yesterday.help_thrash:ryanwalden:vastai-cli (9 days old) โ no fresh recurrence spotted yesterday.network_egress:andreszabala:default-deny-allowlist (8 days old) โ no fresh recurrence spotted yesterday.interactive_auth_failure:ryanwalden:aws-login-pty-decode (7 days old, just crossed) โ no fresh recurrence spotted yesterday.20260716_080756_300750ee session root-caused it end to end: the gateway was down at the 02:00 PT fire time on 07-15 (missed slot, caught by grace-period retry at 09:20), and the actual consolidation work (scan+judge) was consistently exceeding the then-90-turn budget before reaching apply/render/publish/Slack. Fix applied same session: agent.max_turns bumped 90โ300 in config.yaml. This explains the gap in the ledger's own history (no entries 07-14/07-15) โ the meta-irony of hive-dream's own tooling being exactly the kind of silent-failure class this brief exists to catch.~/.hermes/skills/ (secrets, toolchain, convert, explore, index, research, skill-creator, skill-creator-auto, spec-builder) colliding with their canonical .claude/skills/ distribution copies โ root-caused as bootstrap-time cruft (confirmed /sync's rsync has never actually run in this agent's history), not an active sync malfunction. All 9 collisions cleared on justinhromalik's agent; the andreszabala session below shows the identical secrets collision is very much still live on other agents' ~/.hermes/skills/ โ this cleanup was per-agent, not fleet-wide, and is worth a guild-level "run the sweep everywhere" follow-up.andreszabala's 142-tool-call, 24-hour AI-ticket-ingestion swarm-bootstrap session (20260715_140738_6eb8badc.jsonl) tripped 3 mechanical candidates (budget_exhausted x1, help_thrash x7, tool_failing:terminal x6) โ all read and dismissed: the budget hit was one mid-session iteration cap during a legitimate multi-day task that kept going productively afterward (board created, root card filed, dispatcher+coder gateways stood up, GLM-5.2/DeepInfra wired end-to-end with a real API call verified), the help-thrash was one-time CLI discovery of hermes kanban/gateway/profile subcommands (well under the ~98-call vastai-cli pattern threshold), and the terminal errors were scattered one-offs inside the same session. Not opened as loops.secrets name collision (Ambiguous skill name 'secrets': 2 skills match) that Justin diagnosed and fixed for himself hours later the same day โ same root cause (~/.hermes/skills/secrets stale local copy vs .claude/skills/secrets shared distribution), unfixed on Andres's agent. Whoever owns the hermes-skill-collision-triage playbook should run the comm -12 sweep across every agent, not just the one that happened to hit the error and investigate.~/.hermes/cron/jobs.json or an in-progress demos/ build) doesn't survive a container reset. Worth a single fix (either surviving storage for ~/.hermes/, or a "remind me to commit" nudge before ending long build sessions) rather than three separate incident write-ups.| Agent | Sessions | Dominant tool mix |
