Bug Description

The log files created but this command contain snippets of prompts and user information. Uploading them to a public URL and posting them to bug reports is insecure and unsound practice.

Steps to Reproduce

Run hermes debug share and then open the URLs and review the contents.

Expected Behavior

Debug reports should be free of any actual prompt or response content and free of any personal user data. If such data is essential, it must be handled through a secure channel with clear warnings to the user before it is generated and sent.

Actual Behavior

Plain text snippets of prompts and user names as well as other personal data are present in the debug logs and exposed in public URLs. No user warnings exist before generation and uploading.

Affected Component

Agent Core (conversation loop, context compression, memory)

Messaging Platform (if gateway-related)
