A restricted profile shares the Unix user with the fleet. If its
$HERMES_HOME/sift/client.toml is missing, returning ~/.config/sift
would silently use the fleet key. Non-default HERMES_HOME now pins
the profile path so loadClient errors instead.
POST /v1/search and /v2/search fan in SearXNG, Brave LLM Context, and
Tavily from config-fixed endpoints. Public sources refuse private A
records; SearXNG is a loopback-only client, not the fetch guard.
Cache keys include caller class. Restricted callers search like the
fleet; logs omit query, hosts, URLs, and upstream errors. Degraded
results are not stored. Tavily sends search_depth=basic and drops
answer. Missing keys surface in /healthz.
Default-on sources stay off until the bake-off. Query harvest is not
in this commit.
Digest, chunk-embed, and question-embed keys include fleet|restricted so
a fleet caller cannot observe a restricted cache hit. Digest.Run takes
the class from permit_restricted.
A permit_restricted caller whose keys.toml workspace is not
guardian-star is refused at Search (no Honcho request) and flagged at
serve start and keys reload.
docs: P3 restricted callers search like the fleet; cache/logs isolate.
Scrape, fetch, refused, fetch-failed, and internal lines redact the
host for callers in context.permit_restricted. final_url stays in the
response. Test captures slog records, not the journal.
guardian-star context is allowed only when the authenticated caller is in
permit_restricted and mapped to that workspace. Fleet callers remapped to it
still refuse. CLI client.toml: SIFT_CLIENT, then $HERMES_HOME/sift, then ~/.config.
Embed requests send dixie.embed_model (default honcho-embed).
Wayback accepts http://web.archive.org, rewrites to https, skips
non-200 closest.status. Memento-Datetime is parsed as an HTTP date
and future/garbage values become empty snapshot_at. keys add writes
via temp+fchown/chmod/rename so root does not clobber keys.toml.
Digest fallback is capped at the 6k-token budget.
WriteTimeout 30s was cutting digest mid-flight (queue+fetch+digest)
and tailscale then 502'd. 120s write, 90s handler deadline.
sift fetch URL --question now parses; extra positionals error.
Dixie is capped (max_inflight 2, queue_depth 8, queue_wait 20s) and
never queued on llama-server. Streaming chat, thinking off, 45s
fallback to clean. Digest and chunk-embedding caches are
content-addressed SQLite (Honcho context is not cached). Recover
uses the guarded Fetcher. guardian-star is refused in code.
Discover WAN via ddns:<host> then trace:<url> before listen. Persist to
self_ip.json. Previous addresses stay denied for keep_previous. Failure
keeps the last known set. /healthz reports age and source.
Single Fetcher.Fetch on the Guard that holds DenyPrefixes. skipTlsVerification
is ignored. No 502. keys add writes the secret only to --out. Release binary
has no -test-allow-prefix.
Block 6to4/Teredo/NAT64-local/site-local/benchmarking/reserved
ranges from the IANA registries (families, not decoded embeds).
Guard.DenyPrefixes / -deny-prefix covers hairpin WAN /32s; home
addresses stay on-box, not in git. Control is tcp/tcp4/tcp6 only.
Go service with /healthz, SSRF guard (parse + resolve-all + Control),
exhaustive tests, NixOS module, and Makefile as source of truth for
build flags. nix flake check runs make test lint.
