By default, once Hermes participates in a Discord thread (auto-created on @mention or replied in once) it auto-responds to every subsequent message in that thread without requiring further @mentions. That's the right default for one-on-one conversations and isolated channel threads. But it's a confirmed footgun in multi-bot threads. When a user invokes one bot per turn — addressing Codex first, then Hermes — every other bot in the thread also fires on every message, burning credits and spamming the channel. Author has hit this personally in active multi-bot research-team threads. Add a new `discord.thread_require_mention` config key (env: `DISCORD_THREAD_REQUIRE_MENTION`), default `false` to preserve existing behavior. When `true`, the in-thread mention shortcut is disabled and threads are gated the same way channels are. Explicit @mentions still pass through as expected. Mirrors the existing helper shape (config.extra > env > default) and the existing yaml→env bridge pattern used by `require_mention`. Changes: - gateway/platforms/discord.py: new `_discord_thread_require_mention()` helper; in_bot_thread shortcut now AND's with `not _discord_thread_require_mention()` - gateway/config.py: bridge `discord.thread_require_mention` from config.yaml to `DISCORD_THREAD_REQUIRE_MENTION` env var (mirrors the existing `require_mention` bridge two lines above) - hermes_cli/config.py: add `thread_require_mention: False` default to DEFAULT_CONFIG['discord'] - tests/gateway/test_discord_free_response.py: 4 new tests covering default behaviour (in-thread shortcut still works), enabled behaviour (mention required in threads), enabled+mentioned (mention still passes through), and yaml-via-config.extra path. Also clears DISCORD_* env vars in the `adapter` fixture so process-env state from the contributor's shell doesn't leak into per-test behaviour. - tests/gateway/test_config.py: 2 new tests covering the yaml→env bridge (both the apply-from-yaml and env-precedence-over-yaml paths) - website/docs/user-guide/messaging/discord.md: document the new env var + config key with multi-bot rationale; cross-link from `auto_thread` section Tested on Ubuntu 24.04. |

Website
This website is built using Docusaurus, a modern static website generator.
Installation
yarn
Local Development
yarn start
This command starts a local development server and opens up a browser window. Most changes are reflected live without having to restart the server.
Build
yarn build
This command generates static content into the build directory and can be served using any static contents hosting service.
Deployment
Using SSH:
USE_SSH=true yarn deploy
Not using SSH:
GIT_USER=<Your GitHub username> yarn deploy
If you are using GitHub pages for hosting, this command is a convenient way to build the website and push to the gh-pages branch.
Diagram Linting
CI runs ascii-guard to lint docs for ASCII box diagrams. Use Mermaid (````mermaid`) or plain lists/tables instead of ASCII boxes to avoid CI failures.
