2026-10-13-hermes-agent-diagnostic-dumps-redact-credentials-embedded-in-base-urls

Diagnostic dumps redact credentials embedded in base URLs. Fallback-provider base URLs could preserve userinfo, query or fragment tokens in hermes dump and uploaded debug bundles despite force redaction. The fix requests strict URL-credential redaction in dump/upload paths and preserves canonical hyphenated sensitive parameter names. security.redact_secrets=True was a default, not complete path coverage.

Channel: tagged-release (first stable v0.21.6). Half: defect. Date: 2026-09-29.

Operator consequence: Inspect bundles already shared for URL credentials and revoke exposed tokens. Upgrade to v0.21.6+ before producing another diagnostic bundle; avoid assuming the ordinary log redaction policy strips every URL token.
