* feat(skills): add html-artifact skill, fold in sketch + architecture-diagram + concept-diagrams
Adds a unified `html-artifact` creative skill that produces self-contained,
single-file HTML artifacts — concept explainers, implementation plans,
status/incident reports, code-review walkthroughs, technical + educational
SVG diagrams, multi-variant design comparisons, and throwaway editors that
export their state back to the clipboard. Grounded in Anthropic's
html-effectiveness gallery (MIT); the house style (token block, serif/sans/
mono split, hand-rolled diffs, inline-SVG diagrams, graceful degradation) is
distilled from reading all 20 reference files.
Supersedes and removes three overlapping skills, folding their unique value in:
- sketch -> the fidelity dial (throwaway vs presentation) + the
multi-variant comparison layouts + the browser-vision
verify loop (references/fidelity-and-verify.md)
- architecture-diagram-> the dark "infra" token variant + double-rect masking +
semantic component palette (references/dark-tech.md,
templates/diagram.html infra mode)
- concept-diagrams -> the 9-ramp educational color system + the concept
archetype library (references/concept-archetypes.md,
the light design system in templates/diagram.html)
Structure:
- SKILL.md (description exactly 60 chars), 6 references, 3 templates
- templates verified by headless-Chrome render + vision inspection
- editor export logic (file://-safe clipboard, Promise-normalized) verified in node
Cross-references updated in claude-design (new disambiguation table row drawing
the design-taste vs information-artifact boundary), design-md, pretext, spike,
and kanban-video-orchestrator. Website skill docs + catalogs regenerated;
stale EN/zh-Hans per-skill pages pruned and i18n cross-refs fixed.
Not folded (intentionally orthogonal): excalidraw (.excalidraw JSON), p5js
(generative canvas), claude-design / popular-web-designs / design-md (visual
design taste / brand vocab / token spec).
* feat(skills): ship html-effectiveness gallery as fetched reference examples
Add scripts/fetch-examples.sh (idempotent clone/pull of Anthropic's MIT
html-effectiveness gallery) + references/examples.md mapping each of the 20
example files to a mode so the agent reads the right worked example. The clone
lands in references/examples/ and is gitignored (it's a 384KB upstream repo,
not vendored). SKILL.md workflow + reference list now point at it; falls back to
the distilled pattern references when offline.
* feat(skills): make reading a gallery example a required authoring step
Reading the matching html-effectiveness example is now workflow step 2 (was an
optional aside in step 3): fetch the gallery, read_file the file for your mode,
mirror its structure. Models skip optional steps; the examples are the ground
truth, so consulting one is mandatory. Added an 'Example' column to the
mode->build quick-reference table and a 'don't skip the example' pitfall.
Also dogfooded the skill: read 03-code-review-pr.html and 13-flowchart-diagram.html
raw and reconciled the distilled references against source — aligned diff-row tint
opacity to the source's 0.15 (was 0.18) and added the .ctx/.hunk rows in
house-style.md + base.html so they match 03-code-review-pr.html verbatim.
* docs(skills): explain the consolidation + bundled-vs-optional rationale
The supersession note only stated *what* was folded, not *why* the prune is
sound. Expand SKILL.md's intro into a 'Why this skill exists' section: the three
former skills emitted the same artifact and overlapped, so consolidating removes
which-one-do-I-load ambiguity; and the optional->bundled promotion of
concept-diagrams is footprint-safe because this skill has zero deps (only cost is
the 60-char description; everything else is progressive-disclosure). States the
bundling dividing line explicitly: zero install cost + broadly useful gets
bundled, real install cost (hyperframes: Node+FFmpeg+Chromium) stays optional.
Regenerated website per-skill page to match.
* feat(image-gen): add image-to-image / editing to image_generate
Brings image generation to parity with video generation: the unified
image_generate tool now edits/transforms a source image (image-to-image)
when given image_url / reference_image_urls, routing to each backend's
edit endpoint, exactly as video_generate routes to image-to-video.
- ImageGenProvider ABC: generate() gains keyword-only image_url +
reference_image_urls; new capabilities() declares modalities +
max_reference_images (defaults to text-only, backward compatible).
success_response gains a modality field; adds normalize_reference_images.
- image_generate tool: schema exposes image_url + reference_image_urls;
dynamic schema reflects the active model's actual edit capability so the
agent knows when image_url is honored. Handler + plugin dispatch forward
the new inputs; legacy/text-only providers get a clear modality_unsupported
error instead of silently dropping the source image.
- In-tree FAL: 7 models gain edit endpoints (flux-2-klein, flux-2-pro,
nano-banana-pro, gpt-image-1.5, gpt-image-2, ideogram/v3, qwen-image)
with per-model edit_supports whitelists + reference caps; routes to the
/edit endpoint and skips the upscaler for edits.
- Plugins: openai (images.edit, 16 refs), xai (/v1/images/edits via
grok-imagine-image-quality, JSON body per xAI docs), krea
(image_style_references, 10 refs). openai-codex stays text-only and
rejects edits with an actionable error.
- Tests: 15 new (payload, routing, dispatch forwarding, dynamic schema,
capabilities); updated 2 change-detector/lambda tests for the new schema.
- Docs: image-generation feature page, image-gen provider plugin guide,
tools reference.
* fix(image-gen): preserve legacy passthrough in fal/krea plugin tests
Two existing plugin tests asserted pre-image-to-image behavior:
- fal: forward image_url/reference_image_urls only when supplied, so a
text-to-image delegation stays byte-identical (no None kwargs).
- krea: keep dict-shaped image_style_references refs verbatim (the unified
string refs go through normalize_reference_images; legacy non-string ref
objects pass through unchanged) — fixes KeyError when callers pass the
richer Krea ref-object shape.
* fix(image-gen): clearer not-capable message for text-to-image-only models
When a text-to-image-only model (incl. gpt-image-2 on the Codex OAuth path,
which can't do editing through the Responses image_generation tool) gets a
source image, say 'this model is not capable of image-to-image / editing —
provide a text-only prompt' rather than sending the user shopping for other
backends. Applies to the openai-codex guard, the in-tree FAL no-edit-endpoint
error, and the dynamic tool-schema text-only line.
Adds a 'Customizing platform hints' section to the Prompt Assembly
developer guide covering the append/replace/shorthand shapes, the
defensive fallback, and the cache-stable lifecycle (stable tier,
resolved at build time).
When a worker calls kanban_create from inside a session that has a
persistent delivery channel, the originating session is now subscribed
to the new task's completion/block events automatically. The agent
that dispatched the task gets notified instead of having to poll.
- Gateway sessions (telegram/discord/slack): HERMES_SESSION_PLATFORM +
HERMES_SESSION_CHAT_ID ContextVars, set by the messaging gateway.
- TUI / desktop sessions: HERMES_SESSION_KEY in the subprocess env.
The TUI notification poller keys on platform='tui' + chat_id=<key>.
- CLI / cron / test: no persistent channel, no subscription.
Gated by kanban.auto_subscribe_on_create in config.yaml (default True).
Disable to mirror pre-feature behaviour — users who want explicit
kanban_notify-subscribe calls per task can set it to false. This
config gate addresses the design concern that got PR #19718 reverted
upstream (unconditional implicit auto-subscribe on tool-driven
kanban_create was too aggressive for orchestrator users).
HERMES_SESSION_ID is intentionally not a fallback channel — it is
set by ACP/agent subprocess telemetry for every invocation, not just
TUI, so treating it as a notification target would auto-subscribe
every CLI session and re-introduce the over-eager behaviour.
The kanban_create response now includes a 'subscribed' bool so
orchestrators can react if subscription failed (e.g. by falling
back to explicit kanban_notify-subscribe or to polling).
Includes 6 tests covering the gateway / TUI / CLI / partial-context /
gated / add_notify_sub-failure paths. All 90 tests in
test_kanban_tools.py pass; 509 broader kanban tests pass.
The dashboard MCP catalog only showed name/description/transport and a
non-clickable source. Users couldn't see what an entry connects to or runs
before installing — the exact detail the docs trust model tells them to vet.
- /api/mcp/catalog now returns transport target (url, or command+args),
auth_type, git install source/ref + bootstrap commands, default-enabled
tool hint, and post-install guidance per entry.
- McpPage renders the endpoint URL (http) or command+args (stdio), the git
install source/ref, a collapsible bootstrap-commands list, setup notes,
and the source as a clickable link when it's a URL.
- Docs: drop the 'uv pip install -e .[mcp]' quick-start step (Hermes does
not support pip installs; MCP ships with the standard install) and note
the dashboard now surfaces this detail.
- Strengthen the catalog endpoint test to assert the new inspection fields.
* feat(mcp): raise default tool-call timeout 120s -> 300s
Port from openai/codex#28234. Long-running MCP tools (web fetches,
sandboxed builds, deep-research servers) routinely exceed 120s, causing
spurious timeout failures. Codex bumped its default MCP tool timeout from
120 to 300 for the same reason.
- _DEFAULT_TOOL_TIMEOUT 120 -> 300 in tools/mcp_tool.py (per-server
'timeout' config override unchanged)
- update test_default_timeout assertion
- document the default in mcp-config-reference.md
* refactor: remove agent-callable send_message tool
The agent should not decide on its own to fire off cross-platform
messages or reactions. Outbound platform messaging is handled outside
the agent loop — cron delivery, the gateway kanban notifier
(dashboard-toggled), and the `hermes send` CLI.
Removes the model-tool registration only; the send engine in
send_message_tool.py (_send_to_platform, _send_via_adapter,
_parse_target_ref, per-platform _send_* helpers) is kept intact for
those non-agent callers. Drops the now-empty 'messaging' toolset and
its `hermes tools` toggle. Yuanbao DM guidance now points at the
native yb_send_dm tool.
The curator now defaults to prune-only: the deterministic inactivity pass
(mark stale / archive long-unused skills) still runs whenever the curator is
enabled, but the opinionated LLM umbrella-building consolidation fork is OFF
by default.
- agent/curator.py: add DEFAULT_CONSOLIDATE=False + get_consolidate(); gate
the forked aux-model review in run_curator_review behind it (new consolidate
param, None=read config). When off, the LLM pass is skipped entirely (no
aux-model cost); the run is still recorded and reported.
- config.py: add curator.consolidate (default false); v29->v30 migration seeds
the key for existing installs without clobbering a user-set value.
- hermes_cli/curator.py: 'hermes curator run --consolidate' override; status
shows consolidate state; prune-only notice on run.
- docs + tests.
Follow-up to salvaged PR #41633: the timestamp prefix injection was
unconditional. Gate the in-context render behind
gateway.message_timestamps.enabled (default false) at both the live-message
and history-replay sites; timestamp metadata is still captured + persisted
regardless so the toggle can be flipped on later. Add DEFAULT_CONFIG entry,
docs, and gate tests.
Reflect the default-model change in the xAI Grok OAuth guide, the web
search docs (EN + zh-Hans), and the web provider docstring. grok-4.3 is
kept in the model tables as the previous default; the Nous/OpenRouter
aggregator catalog still lists grok-4.3 and is left unchanged.
PROBLEM: Automatic context files such as SOUL.md and AGENTS.md were capped by a hardcoded CONTEXT_FILE_MAX_CHARS value. Amy's local fork had raised that constant from 20K to 25K so a larger SOUL.md would not be silently truncated, but the hardcoded 25K value changed upstream default behavior and made the patch less generally useful.
SOLUTION: Restore the upstream-compatible 20K default, add a context_file_max_chars config setting for users who intentionally keep larger identity/project-context files, keep chat-visible truncation warnings, and document the new setting. Tests cover the default, config override, explicit max_chars precedence, and the warning text.
The picker no longer touches the profile default. Model/effort/fast live as
plain UI state persisted in localStorage, so a pick follows across Cmd+N and
restarts instead of snapping back. New chats ship that state through
session.create as per-session overrides; live chats still scope switches to the
current session. Settings -> Model remains the only surface that writes the
profile default.
The gateway now accepts those session.create overrides, builds the agent with
them directly, reflects them in the immediate session.info payload, and writes
the chat's own model_config into the lazy DB row so reconnect/resume restores
that chat instead of the global default.
Streamed Telegram replies that finalize through editMessageText were
converted to MarkdownV2, which has no table syntax and rewrites pipe
tables into bullet lists — users saw a table while streaming that
collapsed to a list at the last moment.
Finalize now edits the existing preview IN PLACE via Bot API 10.1's
editMessageText rich_message parameter when the content has constructs
the legacy path degrades (tables, task lists, <details>, block math).
No fresh send + delete, so no duplicate-preview flicker — the reason
#46206 reverted the fresh-final re-send path. prefers_fresh_final_streaming
stays False; the in-place edit replaces it.
- _needs_rich_rendering(): rich reserved for table/task-list/details/math
(adapted from #45995, @YonganZhang); plain replies stay on MarkdownV2.
- _try_edit_rich(): editMessageText + rich_message via do_api_request,
mirroring _try_send_rich's fallback/latch/transient contract.
- edit_message finalize tries rich in place before the 4,096 overflow
pre-flight (rich cap is 32,768), falling back to legacy on rejection.
- rich_messages default flipped back to True (DEFAULT_CONFIG + adapter).
- docs (en + zh-Hans) + cli-config example updated to default-on.
Closes the root cause behind #45911 / #46009.
* feat(skills): add optional payments skills (Stripe Link, MPP, Projects)
Adds four optional skills under optional-skills/payments/ wrapping the
Stripe Link CLI, the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP) clients, and the
Stripe Projects CLI plugin. Plus a router skill (payments) that picks
between them based on user intent.
All four are gated [linux, macos] — Stripe's Link CLI does not yet
support Windows. The other CLIs (mppx, stripe projects) are
cross-platform on paper but the payments cluster moves as a unit until
Link CLI gains Windows support.
Skills:
- stripe-link-cli - one-time virtual cards + Shared Payment Tokens
- mpp-agent - HTTP 402 payments via mppx/Tempo/Privy/AgentCash
- stripe-projects - provision SaaS services + credential sync
- payments - router/index skill for the cluster
Hard invariants encoded in every skill:
- Card PANs/wallet keys never enter agent transcripts, logs, or memory
- Spend approvals are not self-bypassable (Link app / wallet UI / CLI prompt)
- Final totals confirmed with user before any --request-approval call
- Credential output files cleaned up after one-time use
Zero core touches. Skills install via:
hermes skills install official/payments/<skill>
* chore(skills/payments): drop router skill — skills shouldn't depend on other skills
Removed optional-skills/payments/payments/ — the router skill that
existed to hand off between stripe-link-cli, mpp-agent, and
stripe-projects.
Per project convention: skills should be independently loadable; a
router is a footgun because (a) it assumes the loader will follow its
recommendation rather than just loading what the user asked for, and
(b) it duplicates the trigger logic that already lives in each
sub-skill's '## When to Use' section.
The three remaining skills declare their own triggers and routing
hints. The optional-skills catalog still groups them under '## payments',
which is the appropriate place for cluster-level discoverability.
Also drops 'payments' from each remaining skill's 'related_skills' list
and removes the corresponding entries from the docs catalog + sidebars.
* feat(skills/payments): fold in danhill-stripe review feedback
- mpp-agent: add link-cli as a client option (when Link is already set
up, or the 402 challenge advertises method="stripe")
- stripe-link-cli: reframe Link account / payment method / approval app
as first-run setup, not hard preconditions (CLI configures them on
first run)
- regenerate the two affected optional-skills docs pages
The Honcho provider page documented the per-profile peer model (user
peer / AI peer / observation) but never the gateway axis — how platform
runtime IDs map to peers. Adds the three keys to the config table and a
short Gateway identity mapping subsection that points at the Honcho page
for the resolver ladder.
Uses the corrected pinUserPeer wording (pins non-agent users, overrides
aliases) so the provider-comparison reader gets the same accurate framing
as the dedicated page.
'everyone collapses to your peer' read as a promise about all traffic.
pinUserPeer pins the user-side peer and is checked before userPeerAliases
(session.py:335), so a pin overrides every alias — including agent peers.
For a multi-agent operator that silently pools distinct agents onto one
peer, the opposite of intent.
Scopes the wording to 'every non-agent gateway user', notes the pin
overrides aliases, and points agent-mesh operators at pinUserPeer:false +
userPeerAliases instead. Same correction in the wizard menu/echo text,
the plugin README, and the website Honcho page.
The /desktop page is deprecated and redirects to the home page. The
landing page for the desktop app is now simply
https://hermes-agent.nousresearch.com/. Update all docs and the
Docusaurus nav/footer links accordingly.

* fix(teams): package Microsoft Teams SDK as an installable extra
The Teams adapter imports the microsoft-teams-apps SDK, but it was never
declared as a dependency, so source/local installs hit ImportError and the
adapter silently reported the SDK as unavailable. Add a 'teams' extra
(microsoft-teams-apps==2.0.13.4 + aiohttp) and document 'uv sync --extra teams'.
Per the 2026-05-12 [all] policy, opt-in messaging-platform SDKs are NOT added
to [all] (they would break every fresh install on a quarantined release); the
teams extra is installed on demand like the other platform backends.
Co-authored-by: rio-jeong <rio.jeong@thebytesize.ai>
* chore: map rio-jeong contributor email for attribution (#43945)
* feat(teams): lazy-install the Teams SDK on demand (parity with other channels)
The teams extra alone left Teams as the only messaging platform that wouldn't
auto-install its SDK — every other channel (telegram, discord, slack, matrix,
dingtalk, feishu) lazy-installs via tools.lazy_deps on first connect. Bring
Teams to parity:
- Add 'platform.teams' to LAZY_DEPS (microsoft-teams-apps + aiohttp).
- Replace the passive 'check_teams_requirements = check_requirements' alias with
a real lazy-installer that calls ensure_and_bind('platform.teams', ...),
rebinding all Teams SDK globals on success (mirrors check_slack_requirements).
- Call check_teams_requirements() at the top of TeamsAdapter.connect() so
enabling Teams installs the SDK on demand.
- Keep the passive check_requirements() as the registry check_fn so 'gateway
status' probes never trigger a pip install.
The 'teams' extra remains for packagers / explicit 'uv sync --extra teams'.
Tests: rework the alias test into shortcircuit + lazy-install assertions, and
update test_connect_fails_without_sdk to simulate an uninstallable SDK.

Remove the rich_messages config toggle entirely so Telegram replies always try the Bot API 10.1 rich-message path first, with the existing MarkdownV2 fallback/latch behavior for unsupported endpoints and per-message failures.
Restore the Telegram platform hint to encourage rich Markdown tables/task lists/math now that the rich path is the default, and remove the config/docs surface for the old toggle.
The Multi-profile section never explained how to reach more than one
profile from outside the container, and distinguishes the two surfaces
that people conflate:
- Hermes Desktop's Remote Gateway connects to a `hermes dashboard`
backend (port 9119), and a single dashboard serves every co-located
profile via its profile switcher (the target profile is sent per
request; the backend opens that profile's HERMES_HOME). No per-profile
port or second connection is needed for Desktop.
- OpenAI-compatible API clients (Open WebUI, LobeChat, /v1) talk to each
profile's API server, which binds 8642 for every profile with no
auto-allocation. Reaching a second profile from such a client needs a
distinct `API_SERVER_PORT` in that profile's own `.env` (and the port
must NOT go in the container-wide `environment:` block, or every
profile collides on it).
Adds the create -> set port -> restart flow, the bridge port-publishing
note, and clarifies the default profile's connection is untouched.
* feat(cli): add --safe-mode troubleshooting flag
Inspired by Claude Code v2.1.169 (June 2026): run Hermes with all
customizations disabled to isolate setup problems from product bugs.
--safe-mode implies --ignore-user-config and --ignore-rules, and
additionally skips plugin discovery (hermes_cli/plugins.py) and MCP
server loading (tools/mcp_tool.py) via the internal HERMES_SAFE_MODE
env bridge.
* fix(desktop): keep composer usable during reconnect
--clone-all copied the source profile's state.db, sessions/, backups/,
state-snapshots/, and checkpoints/ into the new profile. These are
per-profile history: a 49GB copy in practice (15GB snapshots + 11GB
backup archives + 16GB state.db + 6.4GB sessions), and restoring a
copied backup inside the clone would resurrect the SOURCE profile's
state. A clone is a fresh workspace; history stays with the source.
New _CLONE_ALL_HISTORY_EXCLUDE_ROOT set, applied at root level for ANY
source profile (named profiles accumulate the same artifacts), unlike
the default-gated infrastructure excludes. Nested same-name dirs still
copy. Docs and the post-create CLI message updated to match; profile
export / hermes backup remain the full-history paths.
Subagents doing legitimate heavy work (deep code reviews, research
fan-outs, slow reasoning models) were routinely killed at the blanket
600s child_timeout_seconds cap while making steady progress (e.g. 36
API calls completed when the axe fell). Failures should come from what
the child is actually doing — API errors, tool errors, iteration
budget — not a delegation-level stopwatch.
- DEFAULT_CHILD_TIMEOUT: 600 -> None; Future.result(timeout=None)
blocks until the child finishes
- config default delegation.child_timeout_seconds: 600 -> 0
(0/negative = disabled; positive opts back in, floor 30s unchanged)
- stuck-child protection unchanged: the heartbeat staleness monitor
still stops refreshing parent activity so the gateway inactivity
timeout fires on a truly wedged worker; the 0-API-call diagnostic
dump still works when a cap is configured
- docs updated (EN + zh-Hans)
When hermes update restarts a hermes-gateway system service as a
non-root user, the systemctl reset-failed/start/restart calls trigger
polkit's org.freedesktop.systemd1.manage-units TTY authentication
agent. That prompt runs inside a captured subprocess with a 10-15s
timeout, so it flashes and dies before the user can answer, and the
resulting TimeoutExpired was swallowed silently by the loop's blanket
except — the restart phase just vanished with no output.
- Resolve a manage-units command prefix up front: plain systemctl as
root, sudo -n systemctl as non-root (with a targeted reset-failed
probe so least-privilege sudoers entries scoped to hermes-gateway*
qualify), or None when no non-interactive privilege path exists.
- Add --no-ask-password to every manage-units call in the update
restart path so polkit can never prompt inside a captured subprocess.
- When unprivileged: after a graceful drain, rely on systemd's own
RestartSec auto-restart (needs no privileges) with a message about
the wait; skip the force-restart fallback with clear manual
instructions instead of racing a doomed polkit prompt.
- Surface TimeoutExpired in the restart loop instead of passing
silently, and add sudo to the system-scope recovery hints.
- Docs: headless-VM note recommending user service + enable-linger,
or sudo updates / a scoped NOPASSWD sudoers entry for system
services.
A user passing an image to `hermes send --file` got a raw
UnicodeDecodeError ('utf-8 codec can't decode byte 0x89...') with no
hint that media delivery goes through the MEDIA:<path> directive.
- send_cmd: catch UnicodeDecodeError separately and print a usage error
explaining --file is for text bodies, with copy-pasteable MEDIA: and
[[as_document]] examples using the user's own path
- --file help text + epilog now mention MEDIA:
- docs: new 'Sending images and other media' section on the hermes send
reference page
- Use reply_parameters per the sendRichMessage spec instead of the
undocumented reply_to_message_id scalar (silently ignored -> reply
anchor quietly dropped).
- Latch rich sends off after an endpoint-capability failure (old PTB /
server without sendRichMessage) so every later reply doesn't pay a
doomed extra roundtrip; per-message BadRequests do NOT latch.
- Default rich_messages to OFF (opt-in) while the day-old Bot API 10.1
endpoint is validated live; revert the prompt-hint table guidance
until the default flips on.
- Tests: reply_parameters shape, send-latch behavior, BadRequest
non-latch; rich tests opt in explicitly via extra.
Introduce opportunistic support for Telegram Bot API 10.1 rich messages by sending raw agent Markdown via sendRichMessage and streaming previews via sendRichMessageDraft. Implements a rich-path fast‑path in gateway/platforms/telegram.py (RICH_MESSAGE_MAX_BYTES=32768, feature gate platforms.telegram.extra.rich_messages, bot capability checks, routing/thread handling, and conservative fallback rules: permanent/capability errors fall back to the legacy MarkdownV2 path, transient/network errors are surfaced without legacy-resend). Also add a latch for draft capability failures (_rich_draft_disabled) and preserve legacy chunking and draft behavior when needed. Update agent prompt hints (telegram encourages rich Markdown/tables), add CLI config example option, update English and Chinese docs to describe rich messages and fallbacks, and add/adjust tests for rich send and draft behavior.
The subscription-cap usage gauge (50/75/90% bands) ignored purchased
(top-up) credits: a sub user with top-up funds got a sticky warn banner
at 90% of their cap — permanently at >=100%, alongside grant_spent —
despite being fully able to keep inferencing. The cap is the wrong
denominator for an account that can keep spending.
- evaluate_credits_notices: purchased_micros > 0 suppresses the usage
band (grant_spent already covers the cap-reached + top-up case with
the remaining balance). A top-up landing mid-session clears any
showing band; spending top-up down to 0 resumes the gauge.
- New display.credits_notices config (default true): false silences all
credits notices. State capture and /usage are unaffected. Read once
per agent (cached) in _emit_credits_notices, fail-open true.
- Docs: configuration.md display block.
Plugins that post Block Kit messages with interactive elements (buttons,
overflow menus, datepickers, etc.) had no documented way to receive the
resulting click events. The plugin API exposed register_tool, register_hook,
register_command, register_platform, and register_context_engine, but
nothing for slack_bolt action handlers. The only workaround was to
monkey-patch SlackAdapter.connect from inside register(), which is
fragile and breaks on every Hermes update.
This change adds:
* PluginContext.register_slack_action_handler(action_id, callback) —
validates inputs and queues the handler on the PluginManager.
action_id accepts whatever slack_bolt.App.action() accepts (literal
string, compiled re.Pattern, or constraint dict).
* PluginManager.get_slack_action_handlers() — accessor used by the
Slack adapter at connect time.
* SlackAdapter.connect — after wiring its built-in approval and
slash-confirm buttons, iterates the plugin-registered handlers
and registers each via self._app.action(matcher)(callback). Each
callback is wrapped defensively so a misbehaving plugin cannot
crash slack_bolt's dispatch loop, with a best-effort ack on
exception so Slack stops retrying the click.
* Defensive fallback when the plugin layer is unhealthy: a
RuntimeError from get_plugin_manager() is logged and swallowed
rather than blocking the gateway from starting.
* Test coverage in tests/gateway/test_slack_plugin_action_handlers.py
for input validation, multi-plugin registration, the connect-time
wiring, defensive exception handling, and the plugin-loader-
failure fallback path.
* Documentation in website/docs/guides/build-a-hermes-plugin.md
describing the new API alongside the existing register_command /
dispatch_tool documentation.

The identity-mapping keys never made it to the site docs. Add the three keys
to the config reference and a Gateway Identity Mapping section: when it
applies (gateway only, setup-gated), the intent tree, resolver order, the
