- New page: user-guide/features/tool-gateway.md covering eligibility,
setup (hermes model, hermes tools, manual config), how use_gateway
works, precedence, switching back, status checking, self-hosted
gateway env vars, and FAQ
- Added to sidebar under Features (top-level, before Core category)
- Cross-references from: overview.md, tools.md, browser.md,
image-generation.md, tts.md, providers.md, environment-variables.md
- Added Nous Tool Gateway subsection to env vars reference with
TOOL_GATEWAY_DOMAIN, TOOL_GATEWAY_SCHEME, TOOL_GATEWAY_USER_TOKEN,
and FIRECRAWL_GATEWAY_URL
Pass platform_env_var="TELEGRAM_PROXY" to resolve_proxy_url() in both
telegram.py (main connect) and telegram_network.py (fallback transport),
so a Telegram-specific proxy takes priority over the generic HTTPS_PROXY.
Also bridge telegram.proxy_url from config.yaml to the TELEGRAM_PROXY
env var (env var takes precedence if both are set), add OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS
entry, docs, and tests.
Composite salvage of four community PRs:

Adds Arcee AI as a standard direct provider (ARCEEAI_API_KEY) with
Trinity models: trinity-large-thinking, trinity-large-preview, trinity-mini.
Standard OpenAI-compatible provider checklist: auth.py, config.py,
models.py, main.py, providers.py, doctor.py, model_normalize.py,
model_metadata.py, setup.py, trajectory_compressor.py.
Based on PR #9274 by arthurbr11, simplified to a standard direct
provider without dual-endpoint OpenRouter routing.
Cherry-picked from PR #7637 by hcshen0111.

Add the missing 'Adding a Platform Adapter' developer guide — a
comprehensive step-by-step checklist covering all 20+ integration
points (enum, adapter, config, runner, CLI, tools, toolsets, cron,
webhooks, tests, and docs). Includes common patterns for long-poll,
callback/webhook, and token-lock adapters with reference implementations.
Also adds full docs coverage for the WeCom Callback platform:
- New docs page: user-guide/messaging/wecom-callback.md
- Environment variables reference (9 WECOM_CALLBACK_* vars)
- Toolsets reference (hermes-wecom-callback)
- Messaging index (comparison table, architecture diagram, toolsets,
security, next-steps links)
- Integrations index listing
- Sidebar entries for both new pages
Add is_network_accessible() helper using Python's ipaddress module to
robustly classify bind addresses (IPv4/IPv6 loopback, wildcards,
mapped addresses, hostname resolution with DNS-failure-fails-closed).
The API server connect() now refuses to start when the bind address is
network-accessible and no API_SERVER_KEY is set, preventing RCE from
other machines on the network.

When enabled, @mentioning the bot in a DM creates a thread (default:
false). Supports both env var and YAML config (matrix.dm_mention_threads).
6 new tests, docs updated.
From #6957
- Remove sys.path.insert hack (leftover from standalone dev)
- Add token lock (acquire_scoped_lock/release_scoped_lock) in
connect()/disconnect() to prevent duplicate pollers across profiles
- Fix get_connected_platforms: WEIXIN check must precede generic
token/api_key check (requires both token AND account_id)
- Add WEIXIN_HOME_CHANNEL_NAME to _EXTRA_ENV_KEYS
- Add gateway setup wizard with QR login flow
- Add platform status check for partially configured state
- Add weixin.md docs page with full adapter documentation
- Update environment-variables.md reference with all 11 env vars
- Update sidebars.ts to include weixin docs page
- Wire all gateway integration points onto current main
Salvaged from PR #6747 by Zihan Huang.
- Add HERMES_CRON_TIMEOUT and HERMES_CRON_SCRIPT_TIMEOUT to env vars reference
- Add script timeout and provider recovery sections to cron features page
- Add timeout resolution chain and credential pool details to cron internals
Raise the default httpx stream read timeout from 60s to 120s for all
providers. Additionally, auto-detect local LLM endpoints (Ollama,
llama.cpp, vLLM) and raise the read timeout to HERMES_API_TIMEOUT
(1800s) since local models can take minutes for prefill on large
contexts before producing the first token.
The stale stream timeout already had this local auto-detection pattern;
the httpx read timeout was missing it — causing a hard 60s wall that
users couldn't find (HERMES_STREAM_READ_TIMEOUT was undocumented).
Changes:
- Default HERMES_STREAM_READ_TIMEOUT: 60s -> 120s
- Auto-detect local endpoints -> raise to 1800s (user override respected)
- Document HERMES_STREAM_READ_TIMEOUT and HERMES_STREAM_STALE_TIMEOUT
- Add 10 parametrized tests

* 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
The old setup wizard (pre-March 2026) wrote LLM_MODEL to ~/.hermes/.env
across 12 provider flows. Commit 9302690e removed the writes but never
cleaned up existing .env files, leaving a dead variable that:
- Nothing in the codebase reads (zero os.getenv calls)
- The docs incorrectly claimed the gateway still used as fallback
- Caused user confusion when debugging model resolution issues
Changes:
- config.py: Bump _config_version 12 → 13, add migration to clear
LLM_MODEL and OPENAI_MODEL from .env (both dead since March 2026)
- environment-variables.md: Remove LLM_MODEL row, fix HERMES_MODEL
description to stop referencing it
- providers.md: Update deprecation notice from 'deprecated' to 'removed'
Add configurable reply-reference behavior for Discord, matching the
existing Telegram (TELEGRAM_REPLY_TO_MODE) and Mattermost
(MATTERMOST_REPLY_MODE) implementations.
Modes:
- 'off': never reply-reference the original message
- 'first': reply-reference on first chunk only (default, current behavior)
- 'all': reply-reference on every chunk
Set DISCORD_REPLY_TO_MODE=off in .env to disable reply-to messages.
Changes:
- gateway/config.py: parse DISCORD_REPLY_TO_MODE env var
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: read reply_to_mode from config, respect
it in send() — skip fetch_message entirely when 'off'
- hermes_cli/config.py: add to OPTIONAL_ENV_VARS for hermes setup
- 23 tests covering config, send behavior, env var override
- docs: discord.md env var table + environment-variables.md reference
Closes community request from Stuart on Discord.
- Add full Supermemory section to memory-providers.md with config table,
tools, setup instructions, and key features

- Add Supermemory to integrations/providers.md optional API keys table
- Add supermemory to cli-commands.md provider list
- Add Supermemory to profile isolation section (config file providers)
* feat(tools): add Firecrawl cloud browser provider
Adds Firecrawl (https://firecrawl.dev) as a cloud browser provider
alongside Browserbase and Browser Use. All browser tools route through
Firecrawl's cloud browser via CDP when selected.
- tools/browser_providers/firecrawl.py — FirecrawlProvider
- tools/browser_tool.py — register in _PROVIDER_REGISTRY
- hermes_cli/tools_config.py — add to onboarding provider picker
- hermes_cli/setup.py — add to setup summary
- hermes_cli/config.py — add FIRECRAWL_BROWSER_TTL config
- website/docs/ — browser docs and env var reference

* refactor: simplify FirecrawlProvider.emergency_cleanup
Use self._headers() and self._api_url() instead of duplicating
env-var reads and header construction.
* fix: recognize Firecrawl in subscription browser detection
_resolve_browser_feature_state() now handles "firecrawl" as a direct
browser provider (same pattern as "browser-use"), so hermes setup
summary correctly shows "Browser Automation (Firecrawl)" instead of
misreporting as "Local browser".
Also fixes test_config_version_unchanged assertion (11 → 12).

Bring Matrix feature parity with Discord by adding mention gating and
auto-threading. Both default to true, matching Discord behavior.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds two Camofox features:
1. Persistent browser sessions: new `browser.camofox.managed_persistence`
config option. When enabled, Hermes sends a deterministic profile-scoped
userId to Camofox so the server maps it to a persistent browser profile
directory. Cookies, logins, and browser state survive across restarts.
Default remains ephemeral (random userId per session).
2. VNC URL discovery: Camofox /health endpoint returns vncPort when running
in headed mode. Hermes constructs the VNC URL and includes it in navigate
responses so the agent can share it with users.
Also fixes camofox_vision bug where call_llm response object was passed
directly to json.dumps instead of extracting .choices[0].message.content.
Changes from original PR:
- Removed browser_evaluate tool (separate feature, needs own PR)
- Removed snapshot truncation limit change (unrelated)
- Config.yaml only for managed_persistence (no env var, no version bump)
- Rewrote tests to use config mock instead of env var
- Reverted package-lock.json churn

* docs: clarify WhatsApp allowlist behavior and document WHATSAPP_ALLOW_ALL_USERS
- Add WHATSAPP_ALLOW_ALL_USERS and WHATSAPP_DEBUG to env vars reference
- Warn that * is not a wildcard and silently blocks all messages
- Show WHATSAPP_ALLOWED_USERS as optional, not required
- Update troubleshooting with the * trap and debug mode tip
- Fix Security section to mention the allow-all alternative
Prompted by a user report in Discord where WHATSAPP_ALLOWED_USERS=*
caused all incoming messages to be silently dropped at the bridge level.
* feat: support * wildcard in platform allowlists
Follow the precedent set by SIGNAL_GROUP_ALLOWED_USERS which already
supports * as an allow-all wildcard.
Bridge (allowlist.js): matchesAllowedUser() now checks for * in the
allowedUsers set before iterating sender aliases.
Gateway (run.py): _is_authorized() checks for * in allowed_ids after
parsing the allowlist. This is generic — works for all platforms, not
just WhatsApp.
Updated docs to document * as a supported value instead of warning
against it. Added WHATSAPP_ALLOW_ALL_USERS and WHATSAPP_DEBUG to
the env vars reference.
Tests: JS allowlist test + 2 Python gateway tests (WhatsApp + Telegram
to verify cross-platform behavior).
Documents the Telegram webhook mode from #3880:
- New 'Webhook Mode' section in telegram.md with polling vs webhook
comparison, config table, Fly.io deployment example, troubleshooting
- Add TELEGRAM_WEBHOOK_URL/PORT/SECRET to environment-variables.md
- Add Telegram section to .env.example (existing + webhook vars)

Adds WeCom as a gateway platform adapter using the AI Bot WebSocket
gateway for real-time bidirectional communication. No public endpoint
or new pip dependencies needed (uses existing aiohttp + httpx).
Features:
- WebSocket persistent connection with auto-reconnect (exponential backoff)
- DM and group messaging with configurable access policies
- Media upload/download with AES decryption for encrypted attachments
- Markdown rendering, quote context preservation
- Proactive + passive reply message modes
- Chunked media upload pipeline (512KB chunks)
Cherry-picked from PR #1898 by EvilRan with:
- Moved to current main (PR was 300 commits behind)
- Skipped base.py regressions (reply_to additions are good but belong
in a separate PR since they affect all platforms)
- Fixed test assertions to match current base class send() signature
(reply_to=None kwarg now explicit)
- All 16 integration points added surgically to current main
- No new pip dependencies (aiohttp + httpx already installed)
Fixes#1898

Adds MATTERMOST_REQUIRE_MENTION and MATTERMOST_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS
env vars, matching Discord's existing mention gating pattern.
- MATTERMOST_REQUIRE_MENTION=false: respond to all channel messages
- MATTERMOST_FREE_RESPONSE_CHANNELS=id1,id2: specific channels where
bot responds without @mention even when require_mention is true
- DMs always respond regardless of mention settings
- @mention is now stripped from message text (clean agent input)
7 new tests for mention gating, free-response channels, DM bypass,
and mention stripping. Updated existing test for mention stripping.
Docs: updated mattermost.md with Mention Behavior section,
environment-variables.md with new vars, config.py with metadata.
