Adds the checks that make the constraints from Phase 001-007 mechanical
instead of tribal knowledge, and clears the legacy brand text that was still
reachable at runtime.
New red-line tests:
- no-legacy-brand mirrors the harness scan under vitest, and asserts its
allow-list has not drifted from harness-check.mjs
- hermes-db-readonly classifies every new DatabaseSync call site by
following the path it opens, and fails if a state.db handle drops
readOnly. It also pins the one legitimately writable database.
- i18n-parity compares the raw zh/en locale objects both ways. The
existing coverage test merged en into zh at import time, so a key
missing from zh could never fail there.
harness:check gains the four missing gates from the phase brief - retired
package directories, retired package scripts, a single UI library, and the
required root files. Each was verified to fail by mutating the repo.
The online-update channel had hardcoded upstream URLs. It now reads
HERMES_WEB_UI_VERSION_MANIFEST_URL and friends and degrades with a named
error, because a reimplementation has nowhere to pull releases from.
The remaining legacy strings are deliberate and each carries a reason in the
allow-list: the global-agent relay address and the OpenRouter referer are
load-bearing, the socket role identifier is a wire contract, and the pre-rename
DB filenames would orphan existing deployments if changed. AGENTS.md now says
so explicitly, so a future agent does not "clean them up".
Also removes a dead electron mock alias, an i18n exemption that had stopped
exempting anything, and a teardown race in plugins-view.test.ts where a-spin
animation frames outlived the jsdom environment.
Verified self-contained: with reference_code/ moved aside, harness:check,
build, test and test:e2e all pass, so the directory can now be deleted.
