Proper nouns (Córdoba, Cancún) and dropped words came from decoding the
committed transcript with the small model. The image already ships
large-v3-turbo, so the final decode now uses it with beam_size=5, a
temperature fallback ladder, and a proper-noun/accents initial_prompt
that fixes first-pass capitalization and diacritics across EN/ES/RU;
the rolling previews stay on tiny at greedy so the on-the-fly feel is
unchanged. The accurate decode runs in the speculative predecode during
the end-of-speech silence and is cache-reused at commit, so perceived
latency stays low. All decode knobs are env-overridable for on-device
tuning (beam/temperature/prompt), with small as the guaranteed-present
rollback if turbo underperforms on the Jetson. 206 STT tests pass.

The size cap was applied to the raw wire body, so a nodes list (huge
because of status.images) truncated before the image-stripping ran and
came back as a truncation notice. Accept up to 6 MiB on the wire to
parse and clean, then enforce the 384 KiB model-facing cap on the
stripped result - nodes now returns real data. Delivered via the
cluster-read ConfigMap; picked up on the next pod roll.

The 'Something went wrong - listening' state with no spoken answer was a
false positive: readAssistantTurn flagged the whole turn as an error if
ANY segment was error-stamped - including a recovered/transient tool
error or a cancellation notice from an earlier interim - and threw away
the real answer that the same turn produced. Error now surfaces only
when the turn yielded no spoken answer at all; a turn with real content
is spoken normally. Softened the genuine-error label to the friendlier
'Let's try that again - listening'. New probe scenarios lock both: an
error segment alongside an answer speaks the answer (error=false), and
an error-only turn still reports the error.

Real root cause (confirmed against the live build-24 DOM): the caption
and TTS extraction fell back to turn.textContent whenever a settle-frame
race left no readable answer segment, scraping the avatar letter,
author name and 'Processed 13s' chip - and that truncated reply made
TTS speak only the first segment then drop to Listening even with the
mic muted (the muted-mic first-sentence-stop). Extraction now prefers
each answer segment's data-raw-text, else the answer .msg-body only
(excluding thinking/tool/worklog/role chrome), and the textContent
fallback is gone; a genuinely mid-flight reply retries briefly so the
whole thing is read before the overlay drains. Also: the app's own
caduceus mark embedded in the conversation orb as a subtle watermark; a
corner language selector (Auto + en/es/ru) that forces both the STT
hint and the reply voice; and a thinking affordance after 2.5s of dead
time. New response probe + extraction test prove caption==body-only and
that every sentence reaches the TTS queue. 278 voice-lane tests green.

The chat prompt still forbade all cluster access, so Hermes told users
it had no visibility even though cluster_read is live - it now knows it
has a read-only cluster tool (no Secrets/Vault) and should use it rather
than deny. Adds tool/research-conditioned acknowledgement guidance: when
a turn needs a lookup, plan or calculation, open with one short 'on it,
~ETA' line then deliver the full answer; simple questions get no
preamble. In spoken mode that first line is read aloud. Fixes two
pre-existing exact-match test pins the HUX/cluster rollout had grown
(plugins.enabled list; a fieldRef env comprehension).

Node .status.images (every cached image on the node) overflowed the
size cap and left json.loads parsing a truncated blob, so a nodes query
came back as a non-JSON error. The de-noise pass now summarizes that
list, and genuine truncation returns the readable prefix with a
narrow-your-query hint instead of an error.

The read-only cluster_read tool (and the HUX-12 producer) reach the
Kubernetes API through the kubernetes Service, which kube-proxy DNATs
from the 10.43.0.1 ClusterIP to a control-plane node on 192.168.22.11-13
:6443 - addresses the tenant egress except-block was dropping, so calls
failed with connection-refused. Egress now allows the ClusterIP and
those three apiserver endpoints on 443/6443. RBAC still bounds what is
readable (no Secrets); nothing else about the isolation changes.

- Captions read message bodies only (the scraper was concatenating
avatar, author and worklog chips); multi-segment interim turns are
now speakable and drive clean speak-to-thinking-to-speak cycles when
playback drains mid-turn.
- Dynamic endpointing: complete-looking partials (3+ words or terminal
punctuation) endpoint at the base window; the long hold remains only
for one-two-word fragments. A stale-busy 10s settle wait on every
post-error send is gone.
- Both overlay captions are bounded, touch-scrollable regions with
follow-tail; caps raised for long turns.
- Error envelopes are never spoken or captioned; errored turns run
resyncCapture (fresh STT session on the hot mic).
- Workspace toggle now lives in the sidebar rail (floating button only
below the rail breakpoint).
- False 'session unavailable' toast root-caused: the router continuity
guard shows it on a 409 that fired when a transient profile-listing
failure failed closed into a fake cross-profile mismatch; the patcher
now answers from the alias cache and never claims a default-vs-named
mismatch while aliases are unconfirmed.
- Barge-in sends carry a one-line cut-point marker with the last spoken
sentence; visible-history truncation judged infeasible client-side.
- Language switching works end-to-end: sticky per-session STT language
hint (restarting an unused next session on switch), reply voice from
script evidence, STT detection, then stopword heuristic; cues and WAV
fallback share the turn language.
- Legacy CI guards: node skip for the DOM probe, ffmpeg/codec skips for
the container-fallback test. 272 voice-lane tests green.

worker.bstein.dev (the hermes-agent Deployment) gains the same HUX
shape as chat, staged and inert: a foundation-only hux sidecar on the
reviewed WebUI image line (Flux setters bound, 5s probe budgets), an
init that provisions the HMAC identity as slot-100 on the durable home
subtree (create-once context key, O_EXCL subject binding, per-pod
worker key; no relay/router/evidence keys so those trusts fail closed),
and observe-only hook env in the agent container with the runtime
plugin mounted but deliberately NOT enabled - activation is a reviewed
one-line flip per docs/hux/WORKER-PLAN.md, which carries the rollout,
verification gates, canary/rollback ladder and open questions.

Re-enforcement prerequisites, code-side complete: the autonomy runtime
now docks pending-approval cards above the composer (newest first, cap
three, aria-live, allow-once / always / deny wired to the existing
decide route with idempotency; polling gated to active turns and
fail-tolerant), so parked tool calls are never silent. The default
capability matrix no longer denies by default: network and web_search
ask below autonomous (visible prompt) and nothing resolves to deny
except explicit grants or private mode; SO-39 stays intact - deploy and
external side effects always ask and external never auto-allows.

RBAC: the built-in view ClusterRole (which never includes Secrets, so
Vault-managed material stays structurally invisible) plus a read-only
extra for nodes, namespaces, PVs, storage classes, CRDs, Flux resources
and metrics, bound to the chat service account. Tooling: a cluster-read
plugin registers a GET-only cluster_read tool against the in-cluster
API using the pod's projected token - secrets paths refused in the
handler as well, malformed segments rejected, responses bounded and
stripped of managedFields noise. Classified read_files/low in the HUX
capability map. RBAC applies on push; the tool activates when the pods
next roll (bundled with the round-3 voice build).

Round 2 from live testing:
- Clipping root cause: the endpointer committed on any 1.1s pause, so a
thinking pause after a sentence opener sent one word; a speculative
Whisper pass over that fragment then stalled the real commit ~3.5s on
the Jetson. Young utterances now hold a 1.8s endpoint until 1.2s of
speech accrues, speculative decode waits for 700ms of speech, resume
is unconditional after any 650ms gap (server-frozen snapshots can
never reach commit), and the noise floor is capped so playback echo
cannot deafen onset. Deterministic capture-continuity probe added.
- Stitching now fires for any barge-cancelled send within 20s,
regardless of partial assistant output.
- The workspace-drawer dark rectangle was our own HUX chrome resolving
undefined theme tokens (--bg-primary) to a flat box; bootstrap.css
bridges the real theme tokens and drops a compositor-hazard
backdrop-filter.
- Conversation mode: full-viewport hands-free overlay with an energy-
driven orb (mic RMS in, TTS activity out), state caption, live
transcript/reply captions, mute and exit controls, focus trap,
Escape, reduced-motion support. Voice lane 253 tests green.

Real traffic showed the first enforcement pass blocking core assistant
faculties: skills listing and the sandboxed Python classified as
unknown external side effects, browsing denied by default, with no
approval surface in the chat flow. Enforcement returns to observe-only
fleet-wide while the approvals UX and default grants are reworked, and
the capability map now tells the truth about the real toolset: the
Python sandbox is internal shell work, skills/todo/clarify/vision are
reads, browsing is network (medium), image generation writes an
artifact through the trusted broker. Unknown tools remain fail-closed.

Removes the canary partition so all four tenants receive the reviewed
build-22 image with the HUX topology and enforcement (every lifecycle
gate passed on ordinal 3). Bumps the hux probe timeouts to 5s: the 2s
readiness exec budget timed out 405 times in 135 minutes on the loaded
ARM node — interpreter spawn cost, not service health — and the
resulting flapping stalled the StatefulSet roll at the canary. Converts
the HUX_IMAGE_TAG/DIGEST setters to block style with the marker on the
value scalar (Flux cannot attach setters inside flow mappings, which
left the metadata stale at build-21) and corrects them to build-22.

Three conversational fixes for hands-free chat:
- The microphone now stays hot for the whole session: capture runs on
its own epoch, re-arms immediately after each utterance endpoints,
and keeps recording through transcribing/thinking/speaking - speech
is never lost to Hermes being busy. Speech onset during a response
cancels it through the live capture path (echo-guarded exactly like
the old monitor) without touching the running recorder.
- When the user talks over Hermes before any visible reply appeared,
the interrupted utterance and the follow-up are stitched into one
message (20s window), so the response addresses the whole thought.
- TTS speaks 15% faster by default (server-side length_scale, no pitch
shift), user-tunable via hermes-voice-tts-speed (0.5-2.0), honored on
streaming, WAV fallback and thinking-cue paths.
245 voice-lane tests pass; single getUserMedia site preserved;

A shared helper now runs plain --experimental-test-coverage and
enforces the same per-source >=95 floors by parsing the coverage
table, so the gate is identical on Node 20 and newer local Nodes; the
TypeScript suites skip with an explicit reason on runtimes that cannot
strip types. Per-file gating also exposed pre-existing debt the old
