# NousResearch/hermes-agent · Rollback.restore RPC should preserve hand-edits unless --all

## Open now

- Nothing open on GitHub.

These items concern whole-tree /rollback via the gateway rollback.restore RPC, which is described as not honoring the hand-edit-safe mode used by other rollback paths (TUI, desktop, gateway-attached CLI). Two members appear to be fixes proposing that edits be preserved unless --all is given; the third describes the underlying problem.

## TL;DR

- 4 member(s): 0 open issue(s), 1 closed issue(s), 0 open PR(s), 1 merged PR(s), 2 PR(s) closed without merging.
- A fix was merged to main in PR #140249. Verify it addresses your case.
- **Recommended:** read PR #140249 (and any competing PRs below) before filing. Confirm the merged change covers your symptom.

## Maintainer resolution verdict

- Internal-tracker verdict over this cluster's issue members: `unresolved`. 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evidence (`STRUCTURAL_SPANNING`): every member is connected by structural evidence: shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference.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 `0.50`: 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.

## Closed / duplicate issues

- #139375: Whole-tree /rollback through the rollback.restore RPC ignores the hand-edit-safe mode (TUI, desktop, gateway-attached CLI)
