Self-hosted Honcho on localhost doesn't require authentication, but both the activation gates and the SDK client required an API key. Combined fix from three contributor PRs: - Relax all 8 activation gates to accept (api_key OR base_url) as valid credentials (#3482 by @cameronbergh) - Use 'local' placeholder for the SDK client when base_url points to localhost/127.0.0.1/::1 (#3570 by @ygd58) Files changed: run_agent.py (2 gates), cli.py (1 gate), gateway/run.py (1 gate), honcho_integration/cli.py (2 gates), hermes_cli/doctor.py (2 gates), honcho_integration/client.py (SDK).

Merged via #3644 — your gate relaxation approach was the core of the combined fix. Thanks @cameronbergh! |

What changed
base_urlas sufficient to activate Honcho integration pathsbase_url-only self-hosted usageWhy
Self-hosted Honcho can be reachable by base URL without an API key, but Hermes previously treated that setup as disabled. These checks now allow self-hosted deployments to work without fake credentials.
User impact
Hermes CLI, gateway, doctor, and Honcho activation checks now work correctly for self-hosted Honcho setups configured with a base URL and no API key.
Validation
python3 -m py_compile cli.py gateway/run.py hermes_cli/doctor.py honcho_integration/cli.py run_agent.py
