* feat(plugins): host-owned LLM access via ctx.llm
Plugins can now ask the host to run a one-shot chat or structured
completion against the user's active model and auth, without ever
seeing an OAuth token or API key. Closes the gap where plugins that
needed bounded structured inference (receipts, CRM extraction,
support classification) had to either bring their own provider keys
or register a tool the agent had to call.
New surface on PluginContext:
- ctx.llm.complete(messages, ...)
- ctx.llm.complete_structured(instructions, input, json_schema, ...)
- async siblings ctx.llm.acomplete / acomplete_structured
Backed by the existing auxiliary_client.call_llm pipeline — every
provider, fallback chain, vision routing, and timeout policy Hermes
already supports applies automatically.
Trust gate (fail-closed by default):
- plugins.entries.<id>.llm.allow_model_override
- plugins.entries.<id>.llm.allowed_models (allowlist; '*' = any)
- plugins.entries.<id>.llm.allow_agent_id_override
- plugins.entries.<id>.llm.allow_profile_override
Embedded model@profile shorthand goes through the same gate as
explicit profile=, so it can't bypass the auth-profile policy.
Conflicting explicit and embedded profiles fail closed.
Also lands:
- plugins/plugin-llm-example/ — reference plugin that registers
/receipt-extract, demonstrating image+text structured input,
jsonschema validation, and the trust-gate config.
- website/docs/developer-guide/plugin-llm-access.md — full API docs.
- 45 unit tests covering trust gates, JSON parsing, schema
validation, image encoding, async surface, and config loading.
Validation:
- 2628 tests pass in tests/agent/
- E2E: bundled plugin loaded with isolated HERMES_HOME, slash
command produced parsed JSON via stubbed call_llm
- response_format extra_body wired correctly for both json_object
and json_schema modes
* docs(plugin-llm): rewrite quickstart and framing
The quickstart now uses a meeting-notes-to-tasks example instead of
a receipt extractor, and the page leads with hook-time / gateway
pre-filter / scheduled-job framing rather than the OpenClaw
KB/support/CRM/finance/migration enumeration that the original
upstream PR used. Receipt example moved to a separate worked
example link so the docs page itself doesn't echo any of the
upstream framing.
Also clarifies where ctx.llm fits in the broader plugin surface
(table comparing register_tool / register_platform / register_hook
/ etc.) and what makes this lane different from auxiliary_client
internals.
No code change.
* docs(plugin-llm): reframe as any LLM call, not just structured output
The original draft leaned heavily on complete_structured() and made
the chat lane (complete() / acomplete()) feel like a footnote.
Restructure so:
- The page title and description say 'any LLM call.'
- The lead shows BOTH a plain chat call (error rewriter) AND a
structured call (triage scorer) up top.
- Quick start has two complete plugin examples — /tldr (chat) and
/paste-to-tasks (structured).
- New 'When to use which' table for choosing complete() vs
complete_structured() vs the async siblings.
- Trust-gate sections explicitly note 'all four methods,' and the
request-shaping list calls out chat-only fields (messages) and
structured-only fields (instructions, input, json_schema)
alongside each other.
- The 'Where this fits' section now says 'for any reason,
structured or not.'
The receipt-extractor reference plugin still exists under
plugins/plugin-llm-example/ — but the docs page no longer treats
it as the canonical surface example. It's now described as 'a third
worked example, this time with image input.'
No code change.
* feat(plugin-llm): split provider/model into independent explicit kwargs
The first cut accepted a single 'provider/model' slug on every method
and split it internally. That looked clean but broke under live test:
the model-override path tried to use the slug's vendor prefix as a
literal Hermes provider id, which silently switched the user off
their aggregator (e.g. plugin asks for 'openai/gpt-4o-mini' on a user
who routes through OpenRouter — host attempted to call the 'openai'
provider directly, failed because OPENAI_API_KEY wasn't set).
New shape mirrors the host's main config:
ctx.llm.complete(
messages=[...],
provider='openrouter', # gated, optional
model='openai/gpt-4o-mini', # gated, optional
profile='work', # gated, optional
...
)
Each is independently gated by its own allow_*_override flag.
Granting model-override does NOT auto-grant provider-override.
Allowlists are now per-axis (allowed_providers, allowed_models)
matched literally against whatever string the plugin sends.
Dropped 'model@profile' embedded-suffix shorthand entirely. Hermes
doesn't use that pattern anywhere else; profile= is its own kwarg.
Live E2E (against real OpenRouter via Teknium's config) confirms:
- zero-config call works
- default-deny blocks each override with a helpful error
- model-only override stays on user's active provider (the bug)
- provider+model override switches cleanly
- allowlist refuses non-listed entries
- structured output round-trip parses + schema-validates
Tests: 49 cases (up from 45); all green. Docs updated to match the
new shape, including a 'most plugins never need this section' callout
on the trust-gate config block.
* fix+cleanup(plugin-llm): real attribution, hook-mode coverage, move example out of core
Three integration fixes for the ctx.llm surface:
1. Attribution bug — result.provider and result.model now reflect
what call_llm actually used, not placeholder fallbacks ('auto',
'default'). New _resolve_attribution() helper:
- explicit overrides win (what the call targeted)
- response.model wins for the recorded model (provider
canonicalisation: 'gpt-4o' → 'gpt-4o-2024-08-06' etc.)
- falls back to _read_main_provider() / _read_main_model()
when no override is set, so audit logs reflect the user's
active main provider/model
- 'auto' / 'default' only when EVERYTHING is empty
Live verified: zero-config call now records
provider='openrouter', model='anthropic/claude-4.7-opus-20260416'
instead of provider='auto', model='default'.
2. Hook-mode coverage — TestHookMode confirms ctx.llm.complete
works from inside a registered post_tool_call callback. The
docs page promised hook integration; now there's a test that
exercises the lazy-import path through the real invoke_hook
machinery. Two cases: traceback-rewrite hook with conditional
ctx.llm.complete, and minimal hook regression for the
sync-hook + sync-llm path.
3. Reference plugin moved out of core. plugins/plugin-llm-example/
is gone from hermes-agent — it now lives in the new
NousResearch/hermes-example-plugins companion repo. The docs
page links there. Hermes' bundled plugins should be plugins
users actually run; reference / docs-companion plugins live
externally.
Test count: 56 (up from 49). Wider sweep on tests/hermes_cli/
+ tests/gateway/ + tests/tools/ + tests/agent/ shows 16770
passing; the 12 failures are all pre-existing on origin/main
(verified by stashing this branch's changes and re-running) —
kanban-boards, delegate-task, gateway-restart, tts-routing —
none touch the plugin_llm surface.
* chore(plugins): move all example plugins to companion repo
Reference / docs-companion plugins now live exclusively in
NousResearch/hermes-example-plugins, not bundled with the core repo:
- example-dashboard
- strike-freedom-cockpit
A new fourth example, plugin-llm-async-example, was added to that
repo demonstrating ctx.llm's async surface (acomplete()) with
asyncio.gather() — registers /translate <lang>: <text> which fires
forward translation + sentiment classifier in parallel, then a
back-translation for QA. Live-tested at 2.5s for three real
provider round-trips (would be ~5-6s sequential).
Docs updated:
- developer-guide/plugin-llm-access.md links both sync and async
examples in the Reference section
- user-guide/features/extending-the-dashboard.md repoints both demo
sections to the companion repo with corrected install paths
- user-guide/features/built-in-plugins.md drops the two demo rows
- AGENTS.md notes that example plugins live in the companion repo
Net: hermes-agent's plugins/ directory now contains only plugins
users actually run (memory providers, dashboard tabs that ship real
features, the disk-cleanup hook, platform adapters). All four
demo / reference plugins live externally where they can be cloned
on demand instead of inflating the core install.
