# NousResearch/hermes-agent · uv bytecode compile failure handling in pm repair/bootstrap

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

These items appear to center on uv's optional bytecode-compile step failing (including a Windows os error 1224 report tied to real-time antivirus) and affecting \`pm repair\`/bootstrap. Two members propose changes to tolerate or retry without that step; this label does not assume whether any change is merged or effective.

## TL;DR

- 3 member(s): 0 open issue(s), 1 closed issue(s), 0 open PR(s), 1 merged PR(s), 1 PR(s) closed without merging.
- A fix was merged to main in PR #138027. Verify it addresses your case.

## Maintainer resolution verdict

- Internal-tracker verdict over this cluster's issue members: `resolved` · deciding PR(s): `pr-138027`. This is distinct from the fix status above. Weigh it yourself.

## How this cluster was grouped

- Link evidence (`STRUCTURAL_SPANNING`): every member is connected by structural evidence: shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference.
- Pairwise link density `1.00`: the share of member pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. `1.00` means every pair is linked.
