Dashboard themes now control typography and layout, not just colors.
Each built-in theme picks its own fonts, base size, radius, and density
so switching produces visible changes beyond hue.
Schema additions (per theme):
- typography — fontSans, fontMono, fontDisplay, fontUrl, baseSize,
lineHeight, letterSpacing. fontUrl is injected as <link> on switch
so Google/Bunny/self-hosted stylesheets all work.
- layout — radius (any CSS length) and density
(compact | comfortable | spacious, multiplies Tailwind spacing).
- colorOverrides (optional) — pin individual shadcn tokens that would
otherwise derive from the palette.
Built-in themes are now distinct beyond palette:
- default — system stack, 15px, 0.5rem radius, comfortable
- midnight — Inter + JetBrains Mono, 14px, 0.75rem, comfortable
- ember — Spectral (serif) + IBM Plex Mono, 15px, 0.25rem
- mono — IBM Plex Sans + Mono, 13px, 0 radius, compact
- cyberpunk— Share Tech Mono everywhere, 14px, 0 radius, compact
- rose — Fraunces (serif) + DM Mono, 16px, 1rem, spacious
Also fixes two bugs:
1. Custom user themes silently fell back to default. ThemeProvider
only applied BUILTIN_THEMES[name], so YAML files in
~/.hermes/dashboard-themes/ showed in the picker but did nothing.
Server now ships the full normalised definition; client applies it.
2. Docs documented a 21-token flat colors schema that never matched
the code (applyPalette reads a 3-layer palette). Rewrote the
Themes section against the actual shape.
Implementation:
- web/src/themes/types.ts: extend DashboardTheme with typography,
layout, colorOverrides; ThemeListEntry carries optional definition.
- web/src/themes/presets.ts: 6 built-ins with distinct typography+layout.
- web/src/themes/context.tsx: applyTheme() writes palette+typography+
layout+overrides as CSS vars, injects fontUrl stylesheet, fixes the
fallback-to-default bug via resolveTheme(name).
- web/src/index.css: html/body/code read the new theme-font vars;
--radius-sm/md/lg/xl derive from --theme-radius; --spacing scales
with --theme-spacing-mul so Tailwind utilities shift with density.
- hermes_cli/web_server.py: _normalise_theme_definition() parses loose
YAML (bare hex strings, partial blocks) into the canonical wire
shape; /api/dashboard/themes ships full definitions for user themes.
- tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py: 16 new tests covering the
normaliser and discovery (rejection cases, clamping, defaults).
- website/docs/user-guide/features/web-dashboard.md: rewrite Themes
section with real schema, per-model tables, full YAML example.
Adds schema v7 'api_call_count' column. run_agent.py increments it by 1
per LLM API call, web_server analytics SQL aggregates it, frontend uses
the real counter instead of summing sessions.
The 'API Calls' card on the analytics dashboard previously displayed
COUNT(*) from the sessions table — the number of conversations, not
LLM requests. Each session makes 10-90 API calls through the tool loop,
so the reported number was ~30x lower than real.
Salvaged from PR #10140 (@kshitijk4poor). The cache-token accuracy
portions of the original PR were deferred — per-provider analytics is
the better path there, since cache_write_tokens and actual_cost_usd
are only reliably available from a subset of providers (Anthropic
native, Codex Responses, OpenRouter with usage.include).
Tests:
- schema_version v7 assertion
- migration v2 -> v7 adds api_call_count column with default 0
- update_token_counts increments api_call_count by provided delta
- absolute=True sets api_call_count directly
- /api/analytics/usage exposes total_api_calls in totals
When the dashboard connects to a remote gateway via GATEWAY_HEALTH_URL,
display the URL instead of the remote PID (which is meaningless locally).
Falls back to PID display for local gateways as before.
- Backend: expose gateway_health_url in /api/status response
- Frontend: prefer gateway_health_url over PID in gatewayValue()
- Add truncate + title tooltip for long URLs that overflow the card
- Add min-w-0/overflow-hidden on status cards for proper truncation
- Tests: verify gateway_health_url in remote and no-URL scenarios
Add a theme engine for the web dashboard that mirrors the CLI skin
engine philosophy — pure data, no code changes needed for new themes.
Frontend:
- ThemeProvider context that loads active theme from backend on mount
and applies CSS variable overrides to document.documentElement
- ThemeSwitcher dropdown component in the header (next to language
switcher) with instant preview on click
- 6 built-in themes: Hermes Teal (default), Midnight, Ember, Mono,
Cyberpunk, Rosé — each defines all 21 color tokens + overlay settings
- Theme types, presets, and context in web/src/themes/
Backend:
- GET /api/dashboard/themes — returns available themes + active name
- PUT /api/dashboard/theme — persists selection to config.yaml
- User custom themes discoverable from ~/.hermes/dashboard-themes/*.yaml
- Theme list endpoint added to public API paths (no auth needed)
Config:
- dashboard.theme key in DEFAULT_CONFIG (default: 'default')
- Schema override for select dropdown in config page
- Category merged into 'display' tab in config UI
i18n: theme switcher strings added for en + zh.
Expose skill usage in analytics so the dashboard and insights output can
show which skills the agent loads and manages over time.
This adds skill aggregation to the InsightsEngine by extracting
`skill_view` and `skill_manage` calls from assistant tool_calls,
computing per-skill totals, and including the results in both terminal
and gateway insights formatting. It also extends the dashboard analytics
API and Analytics page to render a Top Skills table.
Terminology is aligned with the skills docs:
- Agent Loaded = `skill_view` events
- Agent Managed = `skill_manage` actions
Architecture:
- agent/insights.py collects and aggregates per-skill usage
- hermes_cli/web_server.py exposes `skills` on `/api/analytics/usage`
- web/src/lib/api.ts adds analytics skill response types
- web/src/pages/AnalyticsPage.tsx renders the Top Skills table
- web/src/i18n/{en,zh}.ts updates user-facing labels
Tests:
- tests/agent/test_insights.py covers skill aggregation and formatting
- tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py covers analytics API contract
including the `skills` payload
- verified with `cd web && npm run build`
Files changed:
- agent/insights.py
- hermes_cli/web_server.py
- tests/agent/test_insights.py
- tests/hermes_cli/test_web_server.py
- web/src/i18n/en.ts
- web/src/i18n/types.ts
- web/src/i18n/zh.ts
- web/src/lib/api.ts
- web/src/pages/AnalyticsPage.tsx
Addresses responsible disclosure from FuzzMind Security Lab (CVE pending).
The web dashboard API server had 36 endpoints, of which only 5 checked
the session token. The token itself was served from an unauthenticated
GET /api/auth/session-token endpoint, rendering the protection circular.
When bound to 0.0.0.0 (--host flag), all API keys, config, and cron
management were accessible to any machine on the network.
Changes:
- Add auth middleware requiring session token on ALL /api/ routes except
a small public whitelist (status, config/defaults, config/schema,
model/info)
- Remove GET /api/auth/session-token endpoint entirely; inject the token
into index.html via a <script> tag at serve time instead
- Replace all inline token comparisons (!=) with hmac.compare_digest()
to prevent timing side-channel attacks
- Block non-localhost binding by default; require --insecure flag to
override (with warning log)
- Update frontend fetchJSON() to send Authorization header on all
requests using the injected window.__HERMES_SESSION_TOKEN__

- Add GET /api/model/info endpoint that resolves model metadata using the
same 10-step context-length detection chain the agent uses. Returns
auto-detected context length, config override, effective value, and
model capabilities (tools, vision, reasoning, max output, model family).
- Surface model.context_length as model_context_length virtual field in
the config normalize/denormalize cycle. 0 = auto-detect (default),
positive value overrides. Writing 0 removes context_length from the
model dict on disk.
- Add ModelInfoCard component showing resolved context window (e.g. '1M
auto-detected' or '500K override — auto: 1M'), max output tokens, and
colored capability badges (Tools, Vision, Reasoning, model family).
- Inject ModelInfoCard between model field and context_length override in
ConfigPage General tab. Card re-fetches on model change and after save.
- Insert model_context_length right after model in CONFIG_SCHEMA ordering
so the three elements (model input → info card → override) are adjacent.
Add OAuth provider management to the Hermes dashboard with full
lifecycle support for Anthropic (PKCE), Nous and OpenAI Codex
(device-code) flows.
## Backend (hermes_cli/web_server.py)
- 6 new API endpoints:
GET /api/providers/oauth — list providers with connection status
POST /api/providers/oauth/{id}/start — initiate PKCE or device-code
POST /api/providers/oauth/{id}/submit — exchange PKCE auth code
GET /api/providers/oauth/{id}/poll/{session} — poll device-code
DELETE /api/providers/oauth/{id} — disconnect provider
DELETE /api/providers/oauth/sessions/{id} — cancel pending session
- OAuth constants imported from anthropic_adapter (no duplication)
- Blocking I/O wrapped in run_in_executor for async safety
- In-memory session store with 15-minute TTL and automatic GC
- Auth token required on all mutating endpoints
## Frontend
- OAuthLoginModal — PKCE (paste auth code) and device-code (poll) flows
- OAuthProvidersCard — status, token preview, connect/disconnect actions
- Toast fix: createPortal to document.body for correct z-index
- App.tsx: skip animation key bump on initial mount (prevent double-mount)
- Integrated into the Env/Keys page
The cron API returns schedule as {kind, expr, display} object but
CronPage.tsx rendered it directly as a React child, crashing with
'Objects are not valid as a React child'.
- Update CronJob interface in api.ts to match actual API response
- Use schedule_display (string) instead of schedule (object)
- Use state instead of status for job state
- Use last_error instead of error for error display
* feat: web UI dashboard for managing Hermes Agent (salvage of #8204/#7621)
Adds an embedded web UI dashboard accessible via `hermes web`:
- Status page: agent version, active sessions, gateway status, connected platforms
- Config editor: schema-driven form with tabbed categories, import/export, reset
- API Keys page: set, clear, and view redacted values with category grouping
- Sessions, Skills, Cron, Logs, and Analytics pages
Backend:
- hermes_cli/web_server.py: FastAPI server with REST endpoints
- hermes_cli/config.py: reload_env() utility for hot-reloading .env
- hermes_cli/main.py: `hermes web` subcommand (--port, --host, --no-open)
- cli.py / commands.py: /reload slash command for .env hot-reload
- pyproject.toml: [web] optional dependency extra (fastapi + uvicorn)
- Both update paths (git + zip) auto-build web frontend when npm available
Frontend:
- Vite + React + TypeScript + Tailwind v4 SPA in web/
- shadcn/ui-style components, Nous design language
- Auto-refresh status page, toast notifications, masked password inputs
Security:
- Path traversal guard (resolve().is_relative_to()) on SPA file serving
- CORS localhost-only via allow_origin_regex
- Generic error messages (no internal leak), SessionDB handles closed properly
Tests: 47 tests covering reload_env, redact_key, API endpoints, schema
generation, path traversal, category merging, internal key stripping,
and full config round-trip.
Original work by @austinpickett (PR #1813), salvaged by @kshitijk4poor
(PR #7621 → #8204), re-salvaged onto current main with stale-branch
regressions removed.
* fix(web): clean up status page cards, always rebuild on `hermes web`
- Remove config version migration alert banner from status page
- Remove config version card (internal noise, not surfaced in TUI)
- Reorder status cards: Agent → Gateway → Active Sessions (3-col grid)
- `hermes web` now always rebuilds from source before serving,
preventing stale web_dist when editing frontend files
* feat(web): full-text search across session messages
- Add GET /api/sessions/search endpoint backed by FTS5
- Auto-append prefix wildcards so partial words match (e.g. 'nimb' → 'nimby')
- Debounced search (300ms) with spinner in the search icon slot
- Search results show FTS5 snippets with highlighted match delimiters
- Expanding a search hit auto-scrolls to the first matching message
- Matching messages get a warning ring + 'match' badge
- Inline term highlighting within Markdown (text, bold, italic, headings, lists)
- Clear button (x) on search input for quick reset
