New page: website/docs/user-guide/windows-native.md — comprehensive Windows-native deep dive covering: - Quick install (irm | iex) and parameterized form - What the installer does end-to-end (uv, Python 3.11, Node 22, PortableGit, messaging SDK bootstrap) - Feature matrix: native Windows vs WSL2 (dashboard /chat is WSL-only) - How Hermes runs shell commands on Windows (Git Bash resolution, HERMES_GIT_BASH_PATH override, MinGit layout pitfall) - UTF-8 console shim (configure_windows_stdio, opt-out via HERMES_DISABLE_WINDOWS_UTF8) - Editor handling (notepad default, VSCode/Notepad++/nvim overrides, why Ctrl-X Ctrl-E used to silently do nothing) - Ctrl+Enter for newline in the CLI - Gateway as a Scheduled Task (schtasks + Startup-folder fallback, pythonw.exe detached spawn, why not a Windows Service) - Data layout (%LOCALAPPDATA%\hermes vs %USERPROFILE%\.hermes split) - PATH after install, environment variables, uninstall - Process management internals (bpo-14484 os.kill(pid, 0) footgun, _pid_exists primitive, check-windows-footguns.py CI gate) - 10+ concrete pitfalls with fixes Also: - docs/index.md: add inline 'Install' section with both Linux/macOS curl and Windows irm|iex one-liners right under the hero CTAs. Updates the quick-links row to include 'native Windows'. - sidebars.ts: add Windows (Native) entry above Windows (WSL2). - windows-wsl-quickstart.md: point native-install cross-link at the new dedicated page (was going to installation.md#windows-native). - reference/environment-variables.md: document HERMES_GIT_BASH_PATH and HERMES_DISABLE_WINDOWS_UTF8 (previously undocumented). |
