Expand user-guide/multi-connection-desktop.md into a complete setup
walkthrough: where to find the pane (settings nav, profile-rail plug,
command palette), the exact add-connection editor fields (Name,
Gateway URL, Authentication: Session token/OAuth, SSH host), Primary /
This device pills, Test semantics, agent roster + profile-rail
switching and per-profile session/cron/messaging scoping, token
storage via Electron safeStorage with the keyring-less Linux plain-
text opt-in, and troubleshooting. All quoted labels match the desktop
i18n strings. Cross-link the rail entry point from desktop.md.
Adds hermes://mcp/install?name=NAME&config=B64 (base64url or standard
base64 JSON), mirroring Cursor's mcp/install deep link, so vendors and
docs can offer an "Add to Hermes" button.
- Electron: the existing generic hermes:// handler already forwards
{kind, name, params}; only its comment is updated (no new handler).
- Renderer: use-desktop-integrations routes kind=mcp/name=install into
a pending-install store; a new confirmation dialog shows the server
name and the FULL pretty-printed config (attacker-controllable input),
with a prominent caution for stdio command entries. Nothing is written
until the user confirms; existing names require a rename or cancel.
On confirm the server is merged over a fresh fetch of the current map
via saveMcpServers, then navigation lands on /skills?tab=mcp&server=…
so useDeepLinkHighlight focuses the new row.
- Validation: name ^[A-Za-z0-9._-]{1,64}$; config must decode to an
object with a string http(s) `url` or a string `command` (never both);
payloads over 32KB rejected; failures surface as a toast.
- Pure parser in src/lib/mcp-deeplink.ts with unit tests (url shape,
command shape, bad base64, non-object, javascript: URL, oversized).
- i18n keys in types + en/zh/zh-hant/ja/ar.
- Docs: "Add to Hermes link" section in the MCP config reference.
hermes chat -q sets HERMES_INTERACTIVE=1 (for interactive sudo prompts) but
runs one turn with no user waiting to answer approval prompts. Previously a
dangerous command triggered the interactive gate, waited the full 300s
timeout, then failed closed — and the agent was effectively forced to work
around the block, often silently auto-approving via execute_code (which
auto-approves in non-gateway mode).
Add approvals.single_query_mode (default deny, mirror of cron_mode):
deny — block dangerous commands and execute_code deterministically with
a clear 'no user present' message (no 300s wait)
approve — auto-approve dangerous commands/execute_code in -q mode
cli.py marks the session with HERMES_SINGLE_QUERY_SESSION; the shared gate
(_run_approval_gate, check_all_command_guards, check_execute_code_guard)
treats -q as a deterministic non-interactive context when that marker is set.
execute_code, the -q escape hatch, now honors single_query_mode instead of
auto-approving headlessly. Includes tirith parity in the combined guard and
docs. Fixes#86878.
Adds a `modify` response type to pre_tool_call hooks so a hook can
transform tool arguments before the tool executes, instead of repairing
results afterwards via post_tool_call.
- hermes_cli/plugins.py: _dispatch_pre_tool_call_hooks() fires hooks once
and returns (block_message, modified_args); modify directives
shallow-merge into an accumulated dict built from the original args.
- agent/shell_hooks.py: _parse_response() accepts both the canonical
{"action": "modify", "args": {...}} and Claude Code-compatible
{"decision": "modify", "tool_input": {...}} wire formats.
- model_tools.py, agent/tool_executor.py, agent/agent_runtime_helpers.py:
dispatch sites migrated; modified args applied before execution.
- Docs + 10 new tests (merge semantics, precedence, block interplay).
Salvaged from PR #28953. Best fix for #18988.
#87326 shipped the lean-compaction capability on the compressor; this adds
the config.yaml surface (compression.tail_mode: legacy|lean, default
legacy), DEFAULT_CONFIG entry, and docs on both the dev-guide compression
page and the user-guide configuration page, with zh-Hans parity.
Live-tested against the real cua-driver 0.19.3 binary (Linux x86_64):
- bounded serve flags corrected: the daemon accepts
--session-policy/--approve-session-policy, not the docs'
--capability-manifest names (which it rejects). Verified end-to-end:
a bounded daemon with a real policy file starts and reports running.
- browser-approve verified real but interactive-only (refuses without a
TTY) and its token is a legacy compatibility path disabled by default
on current drivers (per the live browser_prepare schema). Kept as a
passthrough; no longer presented as the primary route.
- NEW primary standard-mode route, verified live: launch the runtime
with cua-driver's trusted-launcher grant. config opt-in
computer_use.grant_existing_profile: true appends
--grant existing-profile to the standard-mode MCP spawn (MCP
initialize verified accepting the flag). Default false = attachment
keeps failing closed. Never applied to bounded/unrestricted daemons.
- Skill, system prompt, tool schema, and docs updated to the verified
ladder: config grant > bounded manifest > YOLO; token = legacy.
Completes the typed cua_browser_* route (PR #74166 lineage) with the
authorization surface that makes existing-profile attachment and
repeatable bounded automation reachable by real users:
- hermes computer-use browser-approve: CLI passthrough that mints
cua-driver's five-minute single-use attachment token for one exact
(pid, window_id). The user, never the model, is the token source.
- approval_token passthrough on cua_browser_prepare (schema + dispatch +
browser_route), forwarded only for existing_profile and only as a
non-empty string.
- computer_use.permission_mode: bounded + capability_manifest config:
private per-session embedded daemon launched with
--capability-manifest/--approve-capability-manifest; missing manifest
fails loudly. 'unrestricted' is deliberately NOT a config value —
it stays bound to the explicit per-session YOLO toggle.
- Skill + system-prompt + docs guidance for the three authorization
rungs and the isolated-profile-first default.
E2E-verified against a temp HERMES_HOME: real config resolution to
bounded, loud failure without a manifest, real argparse path driving a
fake cua-driver binary, standard default preserved.
session=<name> previously set BU_NAME and then skipped backend resolution
entirely — the parameter was documented as cloud-only, so all local/CDP
work funneled through the single default daemon and one IPC socket, and
concurrent sessions (parallel subagents, simultaneous chats) clobbered
each other's browser connection. Reported by @shantanugoel on X.
Now a named session composes with whatever browser source is configured:
- BU_NAME still namespaces the harness daemon (per-name IPC socket, log,
pid — upstream already isolates these), for local Chrome and CDP.
- The /browser connect CDP override is now exported for named sessions
too; previously a named daemon ignored it and fell back to scanning
local Chrome profiles.
- On provider backends (Browserbase, Firecrawl, Nous gateway), the name
keys its own provider browser via the shared _get_session_info cache
(bu-named-<name>), so each name gets its own cloud browser, the same
name reuses one across calls and tasks, and unnamed calls keep the
per-task key.
- Direct-API Browser Use cloud configs keep the native named-daemon path
(provider resolution would double-session and double-bill).
Tool schema/description updated so models reach for session=<name> for
parallel work on any backend, not just cloud.
E2E: two named sessions against a real headless Chrome (real browser-use
CLI, BU_CDP_URL) ran concurrently, set distinct page state, and read it
back intact; sabotage run confirms the new tests fail without the fix.
Follow-ups on the #85006 salvage:
- A key_cmd token with no advertised expiry was cached for the life of the
process. The "refresh on 401" contract it relied on has no implementation
(SDK retries cover 429/5xx only), so an expired no-TTL token would 401
every request until restart. Cache on a bounded 15-minute window instead;
helpers that want a longer cache can advertise their real expiry.
- Test for the no-TTL path updated to pin the bounded-window contract;
the remint test's $RANDOM (bash-only, empty under dash) replaced with
date +%s%N so it exercises remint under any /bin/sh.
- website/docs/integrations/providers.md: document key_cmd in the named
custom providers section (contract, precedence, secrets.command contrast).
Phases 3-5 of the multi-connection campaign in one PR (per Teknium), on top
of the registry (#86679) and composite-key backend routing (#86839). Agents
from every registered connection are now usable side by side.
Renderer socket registry (phase 3):
- backendScopeKey moves to apps/shared (@hermes/shared) so main-process pool
keys and renderer socket keys derive from ONE rule; the electron module
keeps a byte-identical twin (tsconfig project boundaries) pinned by a
cross-copy contract test.
- store/gateway secondaries are scope-keyed: entries carry (connectionId,
profile); registry-scoped entries dial through getConnectionFor +
getGatewayWsUrlFor (fresh per-connect OAuth tickets against the right
host); events keep the bare profile plus a connectionId tag; touch/idle
keepalive uses the scope key; pruning keeps entries whose PROFILE has live
work. New ensureGatewayForAgent/openGatewayForAgent fall through to the
profile path for local/null sources — single-source behavior byte-identical.
Union roster + plugin SDK (phases 3+4, the Bot Mode door):
- hermes:agents:roster enumerates every connection's /api/profiles
concurrently (eager REST, lazy sockets; unreachable sources report per-row;
undialed ssh boxes stay connect-on-demand) and flattens through
buildAgentRoster — the @name-device duplicate-handle rule applied once
across all sources, pure + tested.
- SDK: host.connections(), host.agents(), host.warmAgent(),
host.ensureAgent() — feature-detected so plugins degrade cleanly on older
Desktop builds.
Fan-out updates (phase 5):
- hermes:connections:update-all dispatches hermes update to every eligible
source in parallel: local via the app's own applyUpdates pipeline,
remote/ssh via the backend's own POST /api/hermes/update; cloud skipped as
platform-managed (updateEligibility, pure + tested); per-connection result
rows so one dead box can't wedge the batch. Settings → Connections gains
the "Update all instances" button (shown with 2+ connections).
Also: getJsonForBackend/postJsonForBackend helpers with the token/OAuth-cookie
auth split; docs section updated from "staged rollout" to live behavior.
Tests: +4 pure cases (cross-copy contract, roster handles, unreachable
sources, update eligibility); FULL desktop suite 5115 passed; tsc renderer +
electron + shared clean; eslint clean.
The desktop app carried its own hardcoded list of 17 vendor MCP endpoints
(apps/desktop/src/lib/mcp-directory.ts) powering the composer suggestion
pills — a second PR-reviewed vendor list, overlapping and drifting from the
Nous-approved MCP catalog (optional-mcps/).
This makes the catalog the single source of truth:
- manifest schema: optional `suggest:` block (keywords + hosts), parsed,
validated, and normalized in mcp_catalog.py
- 15 new URL-only hosted-remote catalog entries (atlassian, sentry, datadog,
notion, stripe, vercel, supabase, netlify, hugging_face, asana, intercom,
airtable, webflow, paypal, square); figma + linear manifests gain suggest
blocks
- GET /api/mcp/catalog now serves the suggest metadata
- desktop suggestion provider builds its match index from the catalog;
the static directory remains only as a compatibility rung for older
backends without suggest metadata
- setup card source line prefers the catalog entry's transport URL
GitHub stays out of the catalog on purpose: its hosted MCP rejects generic
DCR and the bundled github/* skills (gh CLI) are the stronger integration.
New desktop `github` suggestion provider offers the github-auth skill
instead — gated on a new cached GET /api/git/gh-auth probe so already-
authenticated users never see the pill.
Review finding on PR #83194 (egilewski): Install-Venv committed the venv
transaction as soon as the replacement had a working interpreter, deleting
the parked previous venv. Install-Dependencies is a separate later stage
(a separate process under the stage-per-process bootstrap) and every
dependency tier or the baseline-import gate can still fail after that
point - a failed update could still leave Hermes and the blocker probe
unusable with no rollback source.
Now:
- Install-Venv records the parked backup in venv.pending-backup instead
of deleting it, and excludes it from the venv.stale.* sweep.
- Install-Dependencies wraps the dependency tiers + baseline-import gate
in the transaction: Restore-VenvBackup on failure (parks the failed
replacement as venv.failed.*, renames the previous venv back), and
Complete-VenvTransaction only after the imports prove the replacement
usable.
- Source-contract regression tests for the boundary
(tests/test_install_ps1_venv_transaction_boundary.py).
On an Anthropic subscription OAuth credential, every request failed with
HTTP 400 "You're out of extra usage. Add more at claude.ai/settings/usage".
That is not a billing condition: Anthropic's server-side content filter rejects
the first sentence of Hermes' own built-in SKILLS_GUIDANCE prompt, and the
rejection is surfaced with a billing-shaped message. Because the message points
at the usage settings page, it reliably sends people to buy quota they do not
need — the reporter lost three debugging sessions to it.
Bisected against the live API with the real 71,721-char assembled prompt: the
first SKILLS_GUIDANCE sentence alone reproduces the 400 and removing it alone
clears it. Size was ruled out (20 KB of unrelated filler returns 200) and so was
the system[0] identity gate (that returns 429, a different failure).
Three changes, all serving the same outcome — a subscription user can no longer
be misdirected by this 400:
- agent/prompt_builder.py: reword the triggering sentence to the phrasing the
reporter verified returns 200. Meaning, the skill_manage reference, and the
## Skill Safety Rule block are all preserved. The reword is empirically
validated rather than understood, so a comment records the bisect and warns
that any rewrite must be re-verified against an OAuth token, not an API key.
- agent/conversation_loop.py: the Anthropic branch of the billing guidance no
longer asserts exhaustion as fact. It hedges the opening line, names the
content-filter alternative, and gives the operator a way to tell the two apart
(if the usage page still shows quota, suspect a content rejection). It also
points at `hermes auth reset anthropic`, because the credential exhaustion
latch replays the stored error for ~60 min without issuing a request — which
makes a real fix look like it did not work.
- hermes_cli/auth.py: document that CLAUDE_CODE_OAUTH_TOKEN is an OAuth token,
not an API key, despite auth_type="api_key". It stays in api_key_env_vars
because that tuple doubles as the credential-discovery list; removing it would
stop Hermes finding a `claude setup-token` credential at all.
Docs updated to match the reworded prompt.
Fixes#82154
* feat(dashboard-auth): extend RFC 8252 native sign-in to password providers
The desktop app runs password sign-in for gated gateways in an embedded
Electron BrowserWindow, where OS password managers (macOS Passwords /
iCloud Keychain autofill) cannot reach the form — Chromium-in-Electron
has no bridge to them, so users retype credentials by hand even though
the /login form already carries the right autocomplete attributes.
The existing RFC 8252 native flow (system browser + loopback + PKCE)
solves exactly this for OAuth providers, but was explicitly disabled for
password providers on the grounds that they have "no IDP round trip to
broker". The brokering is still worth having: it moves the credential
form into the system browser, where password-manager autofill just works.
Gateway-only change; the desktop needs no changes (runNativeLogin is
already page-agnostic), and older desktop builds pick the capability up
automatically once the gateway advertises it:
* /auth/native/authorize now accepts a supports_password provider:
register the pending broker authorization as usual, then 302 the
system browser to the interactive /login form with the opaque
broker_state in the gateway's PKCE cookie (the same server-controlled
channel the OAuth branch uses) instead of an IDP redirect.
* /auth/password-login: when the server-set PKCE cookie carries a
broker handle, a successful credential check completes the pending
authorization exactly like the /auth/callback native branch — mint
the one-time loopback code, return the loopback redirect (validated
loopback-only at authorize time) as `next`, clear the PKCE cookie,
and set NO session cookies. A lapsed broker is a clean 400 telling
the user to restart sign-in; a failed credential attempt leaves the
pending entry intact so the user can retype.
* /api/status now advertises "native_pkce" whenever any interactive
session provider is registered (previously only for non-password
providers), so the desktop selects the system-browser strategy for
password-only gateways.
Security posture is unchanged from the existing flow: loopback-literal
redirect_uri enforcement, PKCE S256 binding, single-use short-TTL codes,
constant-time comparison, and the same rate limiter on password attempts.
Tests: full authorize → /login → password-login → loopback → token →
bearer round trip, wrong-password keeps the pending entry, lapsed broker
→ 400, no-broker browser login keeps minting cookies, and the /api/status
advertisement for password-only gateways.

* fix(dashboard-auth): bind native password completion to the authorize-time provider
Review follow-ups for #75808:
* /auth/password-login now enforces that body.provider matches the
provider recorded in the server-set PKCE cookie by
/auth/native/authorize before completing a pending native
authorization. /login renders a form for every session provider, so
without this a native flow started for provider A could be completed
with provider B's credentials, binding B's session into A's pending
entry. The mismatch is rejected BEFORE credential verification (no
session minted, no oracle) and preserves both the pending entry and
the cookie, so the user can still submit the correct provider's form.
Covered by a two-password-provider E2E regression test.
* Update the two docs spots that still said password-only providers do
not advertise native_pkce (website desktop-native-signin guide and the
auth_flows type comment in web/src/lib/api.ts).

Ports Claude Code's /loop (and its /proactive alias) across every Hermes
surface. /loop [interval] <prompt> re-runs a prompt or slash command on a
recurring cadence inside the live session; omitting the interval enables
self-paced mode (starts at the floor, backs off exponentially while the
agent's replies stop changing, snaps back on change — local digest
comparison, zero extra LLM cost).
Stop conditions: agent-emitted LOOP_COMPLETE marker, --times N,
--until <condition> (judged by the existing goal_judge aux task,
fail-open), /loop stop, and a loops.max_ticks backstop budget.
Core: hermes_cli/loops.py (LoopState + LoopManager + shared
dispatch_loop_command), persisted per session in SessionDB state_meta
(loop:<sid>) so /resume picks it up; migrates across compression
boundaries like /goal. New SessionDB.list_meta_prefix() powers the
gateway's cross-session scan.
Surfaces:
- CLI: /loop handler + idle-fire and post-turn-complete hooks in
process_loop (mirrors the /goal hook shape; Ctrl+C pauses the loop)
- Gateway: /loop handler with route capture, mid-run control-verb guard,
post-turn tick completion, and a supervised loop_wakeup_watcher that
injects due wakeups into idle chats via the synthetic-message path
- TUI/dashboard/desktop: command.dispatch handler + per-session
notification-poller wakeup driver + post-turn completion in the turn
dispatcher; /loop added to the desktop slash palette
- /goal mixing: an active non-parked goal owns the idle boundary — loop
ticks defer until it finishes, pauses, or parks; real user input always
wins over both
Config: loops.{min_interval_seconds,max_ticks,self_paced_floor_seconds,
self_paced_ceiling_seconds}. Docs page + sidebar entry. 77 new tests.
Slack's 50-slash cap: /version moves to /hermes version to free the
native slot for /loop.
Completes the duplicated-chrome class fix:
- Focus-in (CSI I) now routes through the same rate-limited full-redraw
recovery as Ctrl+L//redraw, clearing ghost prompt/composer copies after
Alt+Tab / tab switches (focus-regain variant reported on #60920, #25337)
- Document display.cli_rebuild_scrollback_on_redraw in configuration.md
- Register the new default in hermes_cli/config_defaults.py (moved from
the pre-refactor config.py location the salvaged commit targeted)
Background process completions on messaging platforms now default to a
one-line status message (✅/❌ + command + duration; failures append a
short output tail) instead of dumping the raw output buffer into the
chat. New display.background_process_notifications mode 'concise' is
the default; 'all' keeps the old raw-dump behavior for anyone who wants
it. Config migration v35 moves users still on the old implicit default
'all' to 'concise' on their next update; explicit result/error/off
choices are preserved.
The desktop docs had no HUD mode section at all. Add one covering the
key interaction (long-press the composer to drag the bar), plus resize,
snap-to-pointer, and exit — all sourced from the actual implementation
in composer-drag.ts, resize-handle.ts, and keybinds/actions.ts.
Closing a pane contributed by a plugin used to disable the entire plugin,
unloading every one of its contributions. For a plugin that owns several
independent panes (e.g. Bot Mode's Cronjobs pane alongside its Bots roster
and composer middleware), closing one pane silently killed the rest.
Now: closing one pane of a multi-pane plugin dismisses only that pane; the
plugin stays enabled and its other panes/commands/middleware keep working.
Reset layout restores dismissed contributed panes. A single-pane plugin
keeps the existing symmetric behavior (Close disables the plugin, with
Settings -> Plugins as the recovery path).
Adds regression coverage for both cases.
Covers the advisory memory and disk blocks added to GET /api/status in
#84965 (thresholds, staleness handling, fail-safe degradation) and the
dashboard resource-pressure banner (trigger precedence, boot-scoped
dismissals).
Stop freezing the xAI/xAI-OAuth catalog at import so /model and setup
pick up new Grok IDs after the models.dev cache refreshes. Put xai and
xai-oauth on the shared picker-time models.dev merge path and pin
grok-4.6 as the default headline model.
Follow-ups on salvaged #85287:
- discover_entrypoint_manifests() now carries BOTH the import-free kind
classification (from #85527) and capability declarations — the two
contracts compose in one function instead of the capability rewrite
dropping classification.
- Per-entry exception isolation: one malformed distribution no longer
blanks every other plugin's manifest (same contract as
providers/__init__.py entry-point scan).
- Documented the hermes_agent.plugin_capabilities group in the plugin
developer guide (pyproject example).
Now that subscriptions survive `done` (completion is reversible —
on every 5s notifier tick forever. Add
kanban_db.purge_stale_done_notify_subs(): one DELETE removing subs
whose task has been done with no new events past a retention window
(age = latest task event, falling back to completed_at/created_at, so
any activity exempts the task; a reopened task is exempt by status
alone). The notifier watcher runs it per board once at startup and at
most hourly, re-reading kanban.done_sub_retention_days (config.yaml,
default 30; 0 disables) at each sweep.
Carry the worker's completion handoff into the synthetic creator wake
turn and label it as an automatic notification with inspect-the-board /
don't-recreate guidance, so a woken orchestrator doesn't re-decompose
work that already exists (#70752).
Salvaged from PR #71100 by @yinkev; ported onto the restructured wake
region (delivery_mode gating, scope_id, sub chat_id destinations). The
auto_subscribe_on_create config-default half of the original PR was
dropped as already superseded on main.
Builds on the three salvaged commits: adds the sources and integration points
they leave out, so a pip-installed memory provider is not a second-class
citizen next to a directory install.
Discovery
- Project-local providers (./.hermes/plugins/<name>/), gated on
HERMES_ENABLE_PROJECT_PLUGINS exactly as PluginManager gates its own project
scan. Completes the four sources CONTRIBUTING.md and AGENTS.md already
promised; memory was the only discovery system missing two of them.
- find_provider_dir() now resolves a package entry point to its directory.
This is load-bearing: config_schema.py (the dashboard panel) and cli.py (the
`hermes <provider>` subcommands) are read from disk rather than imported, so
without a directory a pip-installed provider silently lost both.
- list_memory_provider_names() includes entry-point providers, so they appear
in the dashboard's memory.provider dropdown.
Resolution stays import-free. hermes_cli.plugins.resolve_module_origin() is
extracted from _resolve_module_source() (added by the salvaged #76567) and
shared, so discovery walks a module's file layout instead of importing it.
find_provider_dir() is called from the dashboard and from argparse setup, long
before the operator has chosen a provider — importing every installed candidate
would execute third-party code on the strength of a package being present.
A test asserts the resolution leaves no side effects and no sys.modules entry.
Registration
- PluginContext gains register_memory_provider(). Memory was the only provider
category without one; context engine, image gen, video gen, web search,
browser, TTS, transcription, secret source, dashboard auth and platform all
have one.
- _ProviderCollector delegates unknown register_* calls to a real
PluginContext instead of carrying three hand-written no-ops. It silently
dropped register_tool/register_hook, and had no register_auxiliary_task at
all — despite PluginContext.register_auxiliary_task documenting a memory
provider (hindsight's pre-retain dedup) as its worked example. It can no
longer drift behind PluginContext.
- A raise after register_memory_provider() no longer costs the provider. The
loader caught it into a debug log, discarded the registered instance, and
fell through to "instantiate any MemoryProvider subclass" — returning a
different, unconfigured provider. A silent downgrade that looked like
success, and the exact outcome of calling register_auxiliary_task.
Activation is unchanged: still gated on memory.provider naming the plugin, and
covered by a test so the real PluginContext cannot start requiring
plugins.enabled — that would break every existing user-installed provider.
Verified end to end against a real third-party provider (kainappsinc/elephant)
installed by pip alone, with no directory copy: it appears in the dropdown,
resolves its directory, loads with its tools, and renders its dashboard panel.
Closes#40101.
Adds platforms.slack.extra.native_task_cards: when enabled, live tool
calls render as Slack-native plan/task cards via chat.startStream /
chat.appendStream (task_display_mode: plan, task_update chunks) instead
of text/edit progress bubbles. ID-bearing tool_start/tool_complete
callbacks correlate concurrent same-name tool calls correctly; any
native API failure falls back to one continuously edited text update.
The stream is stopped exactly once when the turn finalizes.
Salvaged from PR #29496 onto current main (TurnRunner/TurnContext seam);
closes#29483.
Follow-ups on salvaged #81419:
- Honor the plugins.enabled allow-list / plugins.disabled deny-list (same
opt-in contract as the general PluginManager) — installed != loaded.
- Skip callables that require arguments: general plugins share the
hermes_agent.plugins group with register(ctx) targets; invoking them
zero-arg would TypeError-spam every startup.
- Fix test docstring (entry points are discovered FIRST, lowest precedence)
and docs mechanism wording; document the config gate.
- New tests: opt-in gate, deny-list, register(ctx) never invoked.
E2E-verified with a real pip-built package against a temp HERMES_HOME.
