Explanation
Issue
#856requires one interrupt per observed Hermes turn across all clients of the same bridge, including pending or unconfirmed feedback. The implementation trackssentThisTurninside eachPaneTerminalinstance. The PR description also states that Stop claims are not shared across clients. Therefore, two clients can send twoCtrl+Cinputs within one turn. The implementation does satisfy the other evidenced requirements: it detects the bottom-most Hermes input hint, sends oneCtrl+Cfor a local turn, avoids idle Hermes exit, keeps other agents on Escape, and does not add retries or force-exit escalation.Resolution
Add shared bridge or pane state that claims a Hermes interrupt turn atomically across clients. Keep the claim until the observed turn ends, including pending or unconfirmed feedback. Send at most one
Ctrl+Cfor that shared turn. Preserve the existing idle guard and the existing behavior for other agents and direct Terminal input.

2357-2365: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueA second Stop click after the first gives no feedback.
After Ctrl+C is sent,
hermesStopSentRef.currentistrue. A second click makesstopKeyreturnnull. The branch at Line 2363 then skipssetInputErrorbecause the flag is set. The click does nothing and shows nothing. This matches the PR requirement for "pending or unconfirmed feedback" only weakly.Consider a distinct message such as "Stop already sent" for this case.

The per-turn Stop guard resets on idle/done/unknown, so status flicker or a quick new turn could send Hermes a second Ctrl+C inside its 2 s force-quit window. Keep a per-pane time of the last Ctrl+C and have stopKey refuse another within 2 s.
## Change Follow-up to #1148, the same fix as #1149 applied to Stop. `hermesInterruptible` took the row's **last** `❯` for Hermes' prompt. A draft that itself contains `❯` and Hermes' busy hint (`❯ note ❯ Ctrl+C to interrupt…`) therefore read as a running turn, and Stop would send Ctrl+C. On an idle Hermes, that clears the user's draft, or exits Hermes when the input is empty. The prompt is now the row's **first** `❯`, and anything after it is input. ## Validation - A new `hermesStop.test.ts` case (a draft quoting the TUI hint, and one quoting the classic hint) fails on `main` and passes with this change. The existing cases with real captured rows, both interfaces' busy and idle rows, still pass. - `bun run check fast`: ok.
Change
Fixes #856. Split out of #859 by @RikiSanjayaa, who reported it and first worked out what Hermes needs.
The Stop button in a Hermes pane's chat didn't stop Hermes. The chat's Stop sends Escape, and Hermes ignores a lone Escape: its classic CLI binds it as an Alt prefix, and its TUI interrupts only on a double Escape. Hermes' own interrupt key is Ctrl+C. But Ctrl+C also quits an idle Hermes, and the classic CLI force-quits on a second press within 2 s (
hermes_cli/cli_tui_mixin.py_tui_handle_ctrl_c; TUIresolveCtrlCComposerAction). So for a Hermes pane, Stop now:msg=interrupt · … · Ctrl+C cancelor the TUI'sCtrl+C to interrupt…. Only the bottom-most❯row of the screen is read, so the same text quoted in the transcript above it never counts.working.Every other agent still gets Escape. There is no new endpoint or protocol change: it is
stopKeyinsrc/lib/hermesStop.ts, called fromPaneTerminal'sabortTurn.What this leaves out of #859's design: Stop claims are not shared across clients. Two devices pressing Stop within the same 2 s could still send two Ctrl+C. The screen check usually stops the second one, because Hermes drops the hint as soon as it interrupts, but that isn't guaranteed.
Validation
Run against a real Hermes 0.21.5 in an isolated herdr session, through the real web UI in Chrome (Playwright), with
HERMES_HOMEcopied to a temp dir:working. Stop was clicked, and 6 s and 15 s later the status was stillworkingwith the screen still streaming. The bug reproduces.herdr pane send-keys ctrl+cwhile it was working:idle630 ms later,⚡ Interrupted during API call., Hermes still running. The same key at an idle, empty prompt exited Hermes, which is why the guard exists.idle885 ms after the first click, interrupted, Hermes still running (no force-quit).hermes --tui): Stop:idle432 ms later,· interrupted, Hermes still running.idle, so no Stop is offered and no key is sent.src/lib/hermesStop.test.tsuses the real captured rows. Each of three mutations fails it: any row counting, ignoring the once-per-turn flag, and Escape for Hermes.bun run check fast: ok (3775 pass, 0 fail).
