Cross-checked 75 docs pages under user-guide/messaging/, developer-guide/,
guides/, and integrations/ against the live registries and gateway code.
messaging/
- index.md: API Server toolset is hermes-api-server (was 'hermes (default)');
Google Chat slug is hermes-google_chat (underscore — plugin name uses _).
- google_chat.md: drop bogus 'pip install hermes-agent[google_chat]' (no such
extra); list the actual deps (google-cloud-pubsub, google-api-python-client,
google-auth, google-auth-oauthlib).
- qqbot.md: config namespace is platforms.qqbot (was platforms.qq, which is
silently ignored by the adapter); QQ_STT_BASE_URL is not read directly —
baseUrl lives under platforms.qqbot.extra.stt.
- teams-meetings.md: 'hermes teams-pipeline' is plugin-gated (teams_pipeline
plugin must be enabled), not a built-in subcommand.
- sms.md: example log line 0.0.0.0:8080 -> 127.0.0.1:8080 (default
SMS_WEBHOOK_HOST).
- open-webui.md: API_SERVER_* are env vars, not YAML keys — write them to
per-profile .env, not 'hermes config set' (same pattern fixed in
api-server.md last round). Also bumped example ports to 8650+ to dodge the
default webhook (8644)/wecom-callback (8645)/msgraph-webhook (8646)
collision.
developer-guide/
- architecture.md: tool/toolset counts (61/52 -> 70+/~28); LOC stamps for
run_agent.py, cli.py, hermes_cli/main.py, setup.py, mcp_tool.py,
gateway/run.py replaced with 'large file' to stop drifting.
- agent-loop.md: same LOC drift (~13,700 -> 'a large file (15k+ lines)').
- gateway-internals.md: '14+ external messaging platforms' -> '20+'; gateway
platform tree updated (qqbot is a sub-package, not qqbot.py; added
yuanbao.py, feishu_comment.py, msgraph_webhook.py); 'gateway/builtin_hooks/
(always active)' was wrong — it's an empty extension point and
_register_builtin_hooks() is a no-op stub.
- acp-internals.md: drop fictional 'message_callback' from the bridged-
callbacks list; clarify thinking_callback is currently set to None.
- provider-runtime.md: provider list was missing AWS Bedrock, Azure Foundry,
NVIDIA NIM, xAI, Arcee, GMI Cloud, StepFun, Qwen OAuth, Xiaomi, Ollama
Cloud, LM Studio, Tencent TokenHub. Fallback section described only the
legacy single-pair model — corrected to the canonical list-form
fallback_providers chain.
- environments.md: parsers list missing llama4_json and the deepseek_v31
alias; both register via @register_parser.
- browser-supervisor.md: drop reference to scripts/browser_supervisor_e2e.py
which doesn't exist in-repo.
- contributing.md: tinker-atropos is a git submodule — note that
'git submodule update --init' is required if cloning without
--recurse-submodules.
guides/
- operate-teams-meeting-pipeline.md: cron flags were all wrong — schedule is
positional (not --schedule), the script-only flag is --no-agent (not
--script-only), and there's no --command flag. Replaced with a real example
that creates the script under ~/.hermes/scripts/ and uses the actual flags.
Also replaced fictional 'hermes cron show <name>' with 'hermes cron status'.
- automation-templates.md: 'cron create --skills "a,b"' doesn't work —
the flag is --skill (singular, repeatable). Fixed all 5 occurrences via AST
rewrite.
- minimax-oauth.md: 'hermes auth add minimax-oauth --region cn' silently
fails because --region isn't registered on the auth-add argparse spec.
Pointed users at the minimax-cn provider (or MINIMAX_CN_API_KEY env) for
China-region access.
- cron-script-only.md: 'hermes send' is fictional — replaced the comparison-
table mention with a webhook-subscription pointer; also fixed the dead link
to /guides/pipe-script-output (page doesn't exist).
- cron-troubleshooting.md: 'hermes serve' isn't a real subcommand. Pointed
at 'hermes gateway' (foreground) / 'hermes gateway start' (service).
- local-ollama-setup.md: 'agent.api_timeout' is not a config key. The right
knob is the HERMES_API_TIMEOUT env var.
- python-library.md: run_conversation() return dict has only final_response
and messages — task_id is stored on the agent instance, not echoed back.
- use-mcp-with-hermes.md: '--args /c "npx -y …"' wraps the npx command in
one quoted string, so cmd.exe gets a single arg instead of the multi-token
command line it needs. Removed the surrounding quotes — argparse nargs='*'
collects each token correctly.
integrations/
- providers.md: Bedrock guardrail YAML keys were 'id'/'version' (don't exist);
actual keys are guardrail_identifier/guardrail_version (matches DEFAULT_CONFIG
and the run_agent.py reader). GMI default base URL (api.gmi.ai/v1 ->
api.gmi-serving.com/v1) and portal URL (inference.gmi.ai -> www.gmicloud.ai)
refreshed. Fallback section rewritten to lead with the canonical
fallback_providers list form (was leading with the legacy fallback_model
single dict); supported-providers list extended to include azure-foundry,
alibaba-coding-plan, lmstudio.
index.md
- '68 built-in tools' -> '70+'; '15+ platforms' was both inconsistent with
integrations/index.md ('19+') and undercounted — bumped to 20+ and added
Weixin/QQ Bot/Yuanbao/Google Chat to the list.
Validation: 'npm run build' clean (exit 0); broken-link count unchanged at
155 (same as round-1 post-skill-regen baseline). 24 files, +132/-89.
Reported by @neopabo — the Open WebUI page was missing several steps users
hit in practice:
- Use hermes config set instead of hand-editing .env (matches current UX)
- Restart-gateway note after enabling API_SERVER_ENABLED
- curl /health + /v1/models verification step before jumping to Docker
- ENABLE_OLLAMA_API=false in both docker run and compose snippets to
suppress the empty Ollama backend that otherwise clutters the picker
- 15-30s startup wait note for first-run embedding model download
- Troubleshooting entry for the empty-Ollama-shadowing case
- /v1/models troubleshoot command now includes the Authorization header
Comprehensive audit of every reference/messaging/feature doc page against the
live code registries (PROVIDER_REGISTRY, OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS, COMMAND_REGISTRY,
TOOLSETS, tool registry, on-disk skills). Every fix was verified against code
before writing.
### Wrong values fixed (users would paste-and-fail)
- reference/environment-variables.md:
- DASHSCOPE_BASE_URL default was `coding-intl.dashscope.aliyuncs.com/v1` \u2192
actual `dashscope-intl.aliyuncs.com/compatible-mode/v1`.
- MINIMAX_BASE_URL and MINIMAX_CN_BASE_URL defaults were `/v1` \u2192 actual
`/anthropic` (Hermes calls MiniMax via its Anthropic Messages endpoint).
- reference/toolsets-reference.md MCP example used the non-existent nested
`mcp: servers:` key \u2192 real key is the flat `mcp_servers:`.
- reference/skills-catalog.md listed ~20 bundled skills that no longer exist
on disk (all moved to `optional-skills/`). Regenerated the whole bundled
section from `skills/**/SKILL.md` \u2014 79 skills, accurate paths and names.
- messaging/slack.md ":::info" callout claimed Slack has no
`free_response_channels` equivalent; both the env var and the yaml key are
in fact read.
- messaging/qqbot.md documented `QQ_MARKDOWN_SUPPORT` as an env var, but the
adapter only reads `extra.markdown_support` from config.yaml. Removed the
env var row and noted config-only nature.
- messaging/qqbot.md `hermes setup gateway` \u2192 `hermes gateway setup`.
### Missing coverage added
- Providers: AWS Bedrock and Qwen Portal (qwen-oauth) \u2014 both in
PROVIDER_REGISTRY but undocumented everywhere. Added sections to
integrations/providers.md, rows to quickstart.md and fallback-providers.md.
- integrations/providers.md "Fallback Model" provider list now includes
gemini, google-gemini-cli, qwen-oauth, xai, nvidia, ollama-cloud, bedrock.
- reference/cli-commands.md `--provider` enum and HERMES_INFERENCE_PROVIDER
enum in env-vars now include the same set.
- reference/slash-commands.md: added `/agents` (alias `/tasks`) and `/copy`.
Removed duplicate rows for `/snapshot`, `/fast` (\u00d72), `/debug`.
- reference/tools-reference.md: fixed "47 built-in tools" \u2192 52. Added
`feishu_doc` and `feishu_drive` toolset sections.
- reference/toolsets-reference.md: added `feishu_doc` / `feishu_drive` core
rows + all missing `hermes-<platform>` toolsets in the platform table
(bluebubbles, dingtalk, feishu, qqbot, wecom, wecom-callback, weixin,
homeassistant, webhook, gateway). Fixed the `debugging` composite to
describe the actual `includes=[...]` mechanism.
- reference/optional-skills-catalog.md: added `fitness-nutrition`.
- reference/environment-variables.md: added NOUS_BASE_URL,
NOUS_INFERENCE_BASE_URL, NVIDIA_API_KEY/BASE_URL, OLLAMA_API_KEY/BASE_URL,
XAI_API_KEY/BASE_URL, MISTRAL_API_KEY, AWS_REGION/AWS_PROFILE,
BEDROCK_BASE_URL, HERMES_QWEN_BASE_URL, DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS,
DISCORD_PROXY, TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE, MATRIX_DEVICE_ID, MATRIX_REACTIONS,
QQBOT_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME, QQ_SANDBOX.
- messaging/discord.md: documented DISCORD_ALLOWED_CHANNELS, DISCORD_PROXY,
HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_DELAY_SECONDS and HERMES_DISCORD_TEXT_BATCH_SPLIT
_DELAY_SECONDS (all actively read by the adapter).
- messaging/matrix.md: documented MATRIX_REACTIONS (default true).
- messaging/telegram.md: removed the redundant second Webhook Mode section
that invented a `telegram.webhook_mode: true` yaml key the adapter does
not read.
- user-guide/features/hooks.md: added `on_session_finalize` and
`on_session_reset` (both emitted via invoke_hook but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/api-server.md: documented GET /health/detailed, the
`/api/jobs/*` CRUD surface, POST /v1/runs, and GET /v1/runs/{id}/events
(10 routes that were live but undocumented).
- user-guide/features/fallback-providers.md: added `approval` and
`title_generation` auxiliary-task rows; added gemini, bedrock, qwen-oauth
to the supported-providers table.
- user-guide/features/tts.md: "seven providers" \u2192 "eight" (post-xAI add
oversight in #11942).
- user-guide/configuration.md: TTS provider enum gains `xai` and `gemini`;
yaml example block gains `mistral:`, `gemini:`, `xai:` subsections.
Auxiliary-provider enum now enumerates all real registry entries.
- reference/faq.md: stale AIAgent/config examples bumped from
`nous/hermes-3-llama-3.1-70b` and `claude-sonnet-4.6` to
`claude-opus-4.7`.
### Docs-site integrity
- guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md referenced two nonexistent hooks
(`pre_api_request`, `post_api_request`). Replaced with the real
`on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset` entries.
- messaging/open-webui.md and features/api-server.md had pre-existing
broken links to `/docs/user-guide/features/profiles` (actual path is
`/docs/user-guide/profiles`). Fixed.
- reference/skills-catalog.md had one `<1%` literal that MDX parsed as a
JSX tag. Escaped to `<1%`.
### False positives filtered out (not changed, verified correct)
- `/set-home` is a registered alias of `/sethome` \u2014 docs were fine.
- `hermes setup gateway` is valid syntax (`hermes setup \<section\>`);
changed in qqbot.md for cross-doc consistency, not as a bug fix.
- Telegram reactions "disabled by default" matches code (default `"false"`).
- Matrix encryption "opt-in" matches code (empty env default \u2192 disabled).
- `pre_api_request` / `post_api_request` hooks do NOT exist in current code;
documented instead the real `on_session_finalize` / `on_session_reset`.
- SIGNAL_IGNORE_STORIES is already in env-vars.md (subagent missed it).
Validation:
- `docusaurus build` \u2014 passes (only pre-existing nix-setup anchor warning).
- `ascii-guard lint docs` \u2014 124 files, 0 errors.
- 22 files changed, +317 / \u2212158.
* feat: API server model name derived from profile name
For multi-user setups (e.g. OpenWebUI), each profile's API server now
advertises a distinct model name on /v1/models:
- Profile 'lucas' -> model ID 'lucas'
- Profile 'admin' -> model ID 'admin'
- Default profile -> 'hermes-agent' (unchanged)
Explicit override via API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME env var or
platforms.api_server.model_name config for custom names.
Resolves friction where OpenWebUI couldn't distinguish multiple
hermes-agent connections all advertising the same model name.
* docs: multi-user setup with profiles for API server + Open WebUI
- api-server.md: added Multi-User Setup section, API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME
to config table, updated /v1/models description
- open-webui.md: added Multi-User Setup with Profiles section with
step-by-step guide, updated model name references
- environment-variables.md: added API_SERVER_MODEL_NAME entry
Update docs to reflect that tool progress now streams inline during
SSE responses. Previously docs said tool calls were invisible.
- api-server.md: add 'Tool progress in streams' note to streaming docs
- open-webui.md: update 'How It Works' steps, add Tool Progress tip
CI enforces ascii-guard linting on docs. Replaced ASCII box diagrams
with Mermaid flowcharts (open-webui architecture) and numbered lists
(CLI layout). Added diagram linting note to website README.
Based on PR #2364 by aydnOktay (closed — README had broken formatting).
* feat: OpenAI-compatible API server platform adapter
Salvaged from PR #956, updated for current main.
Adds an HTTP API server as a gateway platform adapter that exposes
hermes-agent via the OpenAI Chat Completions and Responses APIs.
Any OpenAI-compatible frontend (Open WebUI, LobeChat, LibreChat,
AnythingLLM, NextChat, ChatBox, etc.) can connect by pointing at
http://localhost:8642/v1.
Endpoints:
- POST /v1/chat/completions — stateless Chat Completions API
- POST /v1/responses — stateful Responses API with chaining
- GET /v1/responses/{id} — retrieve stored response
- DELETE /v1/responses/{id} — delete stored response
- GET /v1/models — list hermes-agent as available model
- GET /health — health check
Features:
- Real SSE streaming via stream_delta_callback (uses main's streaming)
- In-memory LRU response store for Responses API conversation chaining
- Named conversations via 'conversation' parameter
- Bearer token auth (optional, via API_SERVER_KEY)
- CORS support for browser-based frontends
- System prompt layering (frontend system messages on top of core)
- Real token usage tracking in responses
Integration points:
- Platform.API_SERVER in gateway/config.py
- _create_adapter() branch in gateway/run.py
- API_SERVER_* env vars in hermes_cli/config.py
- Env var overrides in gateway/config.py _apply_env_overrides()
Changes vs original PR #956:
- Removed streaming infrastructure (already on main via stream_consumer.py)
- Removed Telegram reply_to_mode (separate feature, not included)
- Updated _resolve_model() -> _resolve_gateway_model()
- Updated stream_callback -> stream_delta_callback
- Updated connect()/disconnect() to use _mark_connected()/_mark_disconnected()
- Adapted to current Platform enum (includes MATTERMOST, MATRIX, DINGTALK)
Tests: 72 new tests, all passing
Docs: API server guide, Open WebUI integration guide, env var reference
* feat(whatsapp): make reply prefix configurable via config.yaml
Reworked from PR #1764 (ifrederico) to use config.yaml instead of .env.
The WhatsApp bridge prepends a header to every outgoing message.
This was hardcoded to '⚕ *Hermes Agent*'. Users can now customize
or disable it via config.yaml:
whatsapp:
reply_prefix: '' # disable header
reply_prefix: '🤖 *My Bot*\n───\n' # custom prefix
How it works:
- load_gateway_config() reads whatsapp.reply_prefix from config.yaml
and stores it in PlatformConfig.extra['reply_prefix']
- WhatsAppAdapter reads it from config.extra at init
- When spawning bridge.js, the adapter passes it as
WHATSAPP_REPLY_PREFIX in the subprocess environment
- bridge.js handles undefined (default), empty (no header),
or custom values with \\n escape support
- Self-chat echo suppression uses the configured prefix
Also fixes _config_version: was 9 but ENV_VARS_BY_VERSION had a
key 10 (TAVILY_API_KEY), so existing users at v9 would never be
prompted for Tavily. Bumped to 10 to close the gap. Added a
regression test to prevent this from happening again.
Credit: ifrederico (PR #1764) for the bridge.js implementation
and the config version gap discovery.
