* change(nix): dedupe nix lockfile checking scripts in ci
* feat(nix): make .#fix-lockfiles run --apply if no args passed
* fix(nix): use same nodejs version everywhere & small lints
- prevent lockfile thrashing while using nix :3
- use lib.getExe instead of raw /bin/ paths
- use inputs'.self instead of passing system in manually
* fix(nix): update lock files yet again (hopefully for the last time)
* fix(nix): align indentation of collision check echo

Nix-built hermes only copied skills/ into the output, so bundled platform
plugins weren't discoverable when running `nix run` (IRC invisible, no
plugin.yaml files present). Mirror the bundled-skills pattern:
- packages.nix: cleanSourceWith plugins/, copy to
$out/share/hermes-agent/plugins, set HERMES_BUNDLED_PLUGINS on every
wrapper.
- checks.nix: new bundled-plugins check verifying the directory, a
sample manifest, and the wrapper env var.
- hermes_cli.plugins.get_bundled_plugins_dir(): central helper that
honors HERMES_BUNDLED_PLUGINS with a dev-checkout fallback. Used by
plugins.py, plugins_cmd.py, gateway.py, and web_server.py so every
call site resolves the same path.
check_for_updates() looked at __file__.parent.parent for a .git dir to
diff against origin/main. A nix-built hermes lives in /nix/store with
no .git there, so the check fell through to whatever editable-install
dev checkout last populated ~/.hermes/.update_check, producing stale
"X commits behind" warnings right after a fresh `nix run --refresh`.
Embed the locked flake rev into the wrapper as HERMES_REVISION (only
on
clean builds — dirty refs don't represent any upstream commit). When
set, banner.py compares it to upstream main via `git ls-remote`
instead
of inspecting a local checkout, and the cache key includes the rev so
nix updates invalidate immediately. Without local history we can't
count commits, so the message is a plain "update available" with no
suggested command — nix users may install via `nix run`, profile,
system flake, or home-manager, and we don't know which.
Also bump web/package-lock.json npmDepsHash via `nix run
.#fix-lockfiles`.
* feat(nix): parameterize dependency-groups in python.nix
* refactor(nix): extract package to callPackage-able hermes-agent.nix
Makes the package overridable via .override{} and adds
extraPythonPackages parameter for PYTHONPATH injection.
Includes build-time collision check using PEP 503 name
canonicalization.
* feat(nix): add overlay for external NixOS consumption
External flakes can now add overlays = [ inputs.hermes-agent.overlays.default ]
to get pkgs.hermes-agent with full .override support.
* test(nix): add check for extraPythonPackages PYTHONPATH injection
Verifies wrapper has PYTHONPATH when extras provided, and
base package has no PYTHONPATH without extras.
* feat(nix): add extraPlugins option for directory-based plugins
Symlinks plugin packages into HERMES_HOME/plugins/ at activation time.
Validates plugin.yaml presence. Asserts unique plugin names at eval time.
Hermes discovers them automatically via its directory scan.
* feat(nix): add extraPythonPackages option for entry-point plugins
Overrides the hermes package with PYTHONPATH injection when
extraPythonPackages is non-empty. Plugin .dist-info directories
become visible to importlib.metadata for entry-point discovery.
Works in both native systemd and container modes.
* docs: add NixOS declarative plugin installation to nix-setup, plugins, and build-a-plugin guides
- nix-setup.md: new Plugins section with extraPlugins/extraPythonPackages
examples, overlay usage, collision checking note, options reference rows
- plugins.md: Nix row in discovery table, NixOS declarative plugins section
- build-a-hermes-plugin.md: Distribute for NixOS section after pip section
* fix: address review feedback — remove unrelated umask, fix fetchFromGitHub naming, simplify checks
- Remove accidentally introduced umask/migration changes (unrelated to plugins)
- Add pluginName helper, fix fetchFromGitHub producing name='source'
- Show name= in extraPlugins example docs
- Simplify checks.nix: use hermes-agent.override instead of re-callPackage
- Fix fragile grep shell logic in checks
* refactor: address simplify feedback — lib.getName, drop unused inputs', Python list for extras
- Use lib.getName instead of custom pluginName helper
- Drop unused inputs' from checks.nix perSystem args
- Pass extraPythonPackages as Python list literal instead of colon-split string
* fix: walk propagatedBuildInputs for plugin PYTHONPATH and collision check
Uses python312.pkgs.requiredPythonModules to resolve the full transitive
closure of extraPythonPackages. Without this, a plugin with third-party
deps (e.g. requests) would fail at runtime if those deps weren't already
in the sealed uv2nix venv. The collision check now also scans the full
closure, catching transitive conflicts.
* cleanup: fold plugins into subdir loop, use find for symlink cleanup, inline lib.getName
- Add 'plugins' to the existing cron/sessions/logs/memories subdir loop
instead of a separate mkdir/chown/chmod block
- Replace fragile for-glob with find -delete for stale symlink cleanup
- Inline lib.getName at both call sites, remove pluginName wrapper
