Glass was macOS-only because it rode setVibrancy. Windows 11 22H2 has a
first-party equivalent in setBackgroundMaterial, so the mode now resolves
its backing per platform instead of per-OS-check: macOS keeps vibrancy,
Windows 11 gets DWM acrylic / tabbed / mica, and everything older stays on
Clear. No third-party native addon.
Two Windows-specific details the mapping has to respect. DWM only paints
the client area of a transparent window (electron#49443), so glass-capable
Windows chat windows are born transparent with the opaque themed
backgroundColor covering them while glass is off — a live Clear/Glass
toggle then needs no window recreate. And Windows exposes three backdrops
for four frost rungs, so the two heaviest both resolve to mica; the mapping
stays total so a frost saved on a Mac still renders.
Glass support is computed once from os.release() and shared: main uses it
for the persisted default and every window, preload publishes it to the
renderer so the UI can't offer a mode the window can't back.
The demo existed to iterate on the tour UI without spending an agent turn per
look. That work is done and merged, so it is scaffolding now — a floating
button, a hotkey, a palette row and a window hook, none of which anyone needs
again.
Removing it restores the credit-notice demo's original single-disposer wiring
and drops the Compass icon export, which the demo was the only consumer of.
The tour feature itself is untouched.
Looking at the tour UI needed an agent turn per iteration. This adds a demo
that walks the Artifacts page — a route step, a late-mounting target,
per-step narration, the return trip — behind three triggers: a floating
button, Ctrl+Shift+X, and a palette row. The button is not redundant; a chord
can be eaten by a menu accelerator or the main process before the renderer
sees it.
DEV-gated and dynamically imported, so it is absent from production builds.
The stock driver.js look is replaced with the app's own: unfocused UI fades
toward var(--background) and desaturates, so it recedes in light and dark
without a mode branch. The dimming is masked to a feathered cutout that tracks
driver's eased stage rect each frame, keeping the highlighted element crisp —
a plain backdrop-filter blurs the spotlight too, because it clips to the
element box rather than the cutout.
Popovers enter from wherever they land: left, right, above or below their
target, and a shorter settle for centered narration steps, which have nothing
beside them to measure against. Travel, duration and easing are tokens on
.driver-popover, and the whole thing collapses to a fade under
prefers-reduced-motion.
A tour step that moved the app deadlocked: driver.js checks waitForElement
before running any hook, so the step waited for an element on a page the hook
had not opened yet. The move now happens in the step's own onHighlightStarted
— the one hook driver fires however a step is reached — so clicking Next,
pressing an arrow key and calling the API all behave the same.
Steps also re-bind themselves. driver.js holds the highlight as a node
reference and re-measures it, so a poll or refetch that swapped the node left
it measuring a detached element and the spotlight vanished, looking like the
tour closed itself. One observer now covers both cases: the target that has
not mounted yet, and the one that was replaced underneath.
Orphaned overlays are swept before a tour starts, since driver.js can only
tear down what its own instance built.
Translates the wire payload into a normalized action and dynamic-imports
the engine, keeping driver.js off the boot path. Active session only — a
background turn must never paint an overlay over what the user is looking
at.
A surface-agnostic walkthrough engine plus the API that drives it.
collectTourTargets scans any document for addressable elements and marks
each selector stable (identity-based, survives a re-render) or positional;
runTourEngine turns one action into a driver.js highlight, a multi-step
tour, or a step change.
Both are written self-contained — no imports, no closures — so the same
source runs in the renderer and, stringified, inside a webview guest page.
Popovers are repainted from the app's own theme tokens, so tours follow
every theme and custom skin.
The named verbs (startTour, showTourStep, nextTourStep, …) are the public
API: the agent tool is one caller, and a feature can ship its own curated
tour through the same entry.
One renderer coordinator owns every right-click and replaces the
native Electron menus. Menus are assembled from what the click
landed on:
- Links and images get open/copy/save sections; chat links add the
reach-aware resolved-URL copy on remote gateways.
- Editables get spell-check suggestions (async-appended when
Chromium's facts arrive from main), cut/copy/paste, and select
all. Cut and copy need a selection; paste needs a non-empty
clipboard; select all needs field content. The verbs show their
accelerators instead of icons and dispatch a frame after the menu
closes, so the radix focus trap cannot steal the target. Select
all runs renderer-side, scoped to the field, because main's
selectAll acts on the focused frame and could grab the transcript.
- Terminals answer through registered xterm handles; the read-only
agent terminal hides paste.
- The in-app browser guest builds the same menus from the webview
tag's context-menu event: Chromium's editFlags gate the edit
verbs, spell-check rides the event, and Inspect element closes
every menu. Coordinates arrive as window-relative device pixels,
so the handler divides by the window zoom factor; guest edit
commands focus the webview first, because they act on the focused
webContents.
- Bare app chrome falls back to the window verbs.
Labels come from the locale files in all five languages. Main keeps
thin IPC verbs: edit commands, copy-image-at-gesture, spell-check
actions, and dictionary-add for guests (the tag has no session API).
The e2e spec exercises the real focus trap; it is blocked today by
the gateway-checking stall that also fails e2e/chat.spec.ts.
The agent could reveal single panes (focus_pane) but had no way to arrange
the workspace as one act. apply_layout closes that gap: a desktop_ui tool
that emits layout.apply over the existing bridge, resolved in the renderer
against the layouts contribution registry — the same list the layout picker
reads — so core presets (default/focus/terminal-deck/quad), plugin presets,
and user-saved presets are all addressable by id. Active session only, same
as pane.reveal: a background turn never rearranges the user's desktop.
A batch clarify rendered as two identical interactive cards. The
tool.start row carries the model tool_call_id and the clarify.request
row carries a gateway request_id. The hydration-race merge correlates
the two rows with the top-level question text. A batch payload has no
top-level question, so the rows never matched and the card mounted
twice.
The correlation key for a batch now comes from the joined per-question
texts. The NUL separator cannot occur in real question text, so a batch
key cannot collide with a single-question key.
New coverage: two hydration-race tests for the batch shape (tool.start
first and clarify.request first), a mock-server batch clarify trigger,
and an E2E spec that runs the full chain and asserts exactly one card,
the per-question locks, the Confirm and continue relabel, and the
settled card.
The clarify card renders every batch question at once. Answers stage
locally per question; the footer button locks the staged answer with a
clarify.respond keyed by question_id. Locked answers stay editable — a
new pick un-locks the row and a re-lock overwrites server-side. When
exactly one question is unanswered the button relabels to Confirm and
continue, and that final lock completes the batch. Skip cancels the
whole batch (no question_id). Reconnect replay seeds the locked map so
a reattached window restores its earlier state.
The settled card lists every question with its answer; blank answers
render as Skipped. Single-question cards are untouched.
Adds a reviewable in-app install path for Hermes plugins:
hermes://plugin/install?repo=owner/repo (and Settings -> Plugins ->
Install from Git) opens a confirmation modal showing the repo identity
and source links, shallow-clones to probe for agent and/or desktop
plugin artifacts, lets the user pick components, then installs — agent
side through the gateway's new plugins.manage `install` action (wrapping
the existing dashboard_install_plugin), desktop side through a new
Electron git-install module with subdir-escape guards, a 60s clone
timeout, non-interactive git env, and insecure-scheme warnings. Never
auto-installs; hybrid repos get one dialog. Legacy plugin-agent /
plugin-desktop deeplinks route into the same modal.
Salvaged from PR #82735 by @serefyarar (net diff applied onto current
main as a single authored commit; the branch carried merge commits).
The preview screenshot PNG from the original branch was intentionally
not carried over — images live in PR bodies, not the repo.
Extends ctx.os.notify (the curated plugin OS door from #78685) with icon,
action buttons, and a serializable `activate` target. Body/action clicks
focus the window and navigate to the plugin's screen; activation paths
share one resolver (hermes-open-target.ts) with hermes:// OS deep links,
so `hermes://index-network/intent/1`, `/index-network/intent/1`, and
{ path, params } all land on the same hash-router route. Approval
notifications keep their existing session-scoped channel.
Salvaged from PR #84192 by @serefyarar (net diff of the PR branch applied
onto current main; branch carried merge commits so a single authored
commit preserves attribution).
The inline branch of MATH_SPAN_SPLIT_RE excluded `$` from the body outright,
so a `\$` inside inline math — a literal dollar sign, valid TeX — broke the
span match and the shield silently didn't apply. `$\sqrt[3]{8} + \$5$` still
lost its index.
Step over escape pairs instead, matching the escaped-delimiter rule
findClosingSingleDollar already applies via isEscapedAt. The two body
alternatives are disjoint on their first character, so the added quantifier
can't backtrack ambiguously.

`$\sqrt[3]{8}$` renders as a plain square root — the index is gone. It is
not a KaTeX layout problem: the index never reaches KaTeX. CITATION_MARKER_RE
strips `[3]` as a citation marker, because its lookbehind accepts any letter
and the `t` of `\sqrt` qualifies. That runs inside normalizeVisibleProse,
which splits out inline code spans but not math, so TeX is fed to rewrites
written for prose.
Numeric-only, which is why `\sqrt[n]{8}` survives and made this look like a
layout edge case rather than a preprocessing one.
Shield math the same way inline code is already shielded: split each prose
part on math spans and rewrite only the segments between them. That also
takes math out of the reach of the other rewrites in that pass
(autoLinkRawUrls, LOCAL_PREVIEW_URL_RE, the ``` stripper, linkifySessionRefs),
any of which can corrupt TeX the same way with different input.
The split is capturing, and math segments are identified by index parity
rather than a leading `$`, so a prose run that merely opens with a stray
dollar cannot be mistaken for math. Escaped `\$` delimiters stay prose, which
is what keeps `$5 and $10` escaping intact.
Verified in the real renderer through the desktop mock-backend E2E harness:
`.katex .root` (the span KaTeX emits for a radical index) goes from 1 to 4 on
the same four-radical reply, and the MathML annotations show KaTeX receiving
`\sqrt[3]{8}` intact rather than `\sqrt{8}`.

Multi-line display math whose $$ delimiters hug the body
(e.g. $$\begin{aligned}...\end{aligned}$$) renders as raw error text.
remark-math's flow-math construct is fence-shaped: text after the
opening $$ on the same line is read as an info string and discarded,
and the closing $$ is only recognized alone on its own line. So the
block never closes and KaTeX paints the remains via its error fallback.
splitHuggingDisplayMath moves those delimiters onto their own lines. It
runs AFTER normalizeMathDelimiters because that rewrite is itself a
source of the hugging form: a multi-line \[...\] comes out of it as
$$\begin{aligned}...\end{aligned}$$, so the same bug reached users who
never typed a $$ at all.
Single-line $$...$$ is left alone (it routes through the inline
math-text construct and already renders), container prefixes are
replayed onto the delimiter lines, and both patterns anchor $$ to the
start of the line, which keeps them from firing inside an inline code
span.
Verified end to end: the repro emits katex-error through
remark-math + rehype-katex before this change and not after.

Assistant messages that link a file the agent wrote —
[report](/home/user/report.md), file://…, ~/…, C:\… — rendered as dead
anchors: file:// is blocked in the renderer, Streamdown's URL hardening
turns file:/~/ hrefs into "[blocked]" spans, and on a remote gateway the
path isn't on the viewer's disk at all. Issue #82140 proposed exposing
the Desktop connection mode to skills/MCP/plugins so EXTENSIONS could
emit different output per viewer; this fixes the symptom at the right
layer instead — the viewer surface resolves paths at VIEW time, so
extension output stays surface-agnostic and the same transcript works
from every machine that opens it.
- markdown-preprocess: routeFileLinksToPreview() rewrites filesystem-path
links in prose to the renderer's existing hash-href doors —
#preview/… (PreviewAttachment) for documents, #media:… for
audio/video/image extensions. These pass URL hardening by design and
resolve through normalizeOrLocalPreviewTarget / resolveMedia*Src:
local connections read the file directly, remote connections fetch
over the authenticated /api/fs bridge. Image syntax, fences, inline
code, anchors, relative and http(s) links untouched.
- markdown-text: MarkdownLink routes any filesystem href that still
reaches it (bypassing preprocess) to PreviewAttachment/MediaAttachment
instead of a bare dead <a>.
- media.ts: export isFileMediaPath.
Live E2E (built app, CDP-driven, fixture session with links to a real
gateway-side file):
- BEFORE: [report.md] = dead <a href="/home/…"> (click: nothing),
[notes](file://…) = "notes [blocked]" span, 0 preview affordances.
- AFTER: both render as attachment rows; Open preview shows the file's
content in the preview pane; zero blocked spans; screenshots verified.
Closes#82140. Supersedes PR #82187 (connection-mode API): with view-time
resolution the extension layer no longer needs to know where the viewer
sits.
A `.md` delivered via MEDIA has no entry in MEDIA_BY_EXT, so mediaKind()
classified it as a generic 'file' and MarkdownLink rendered a download-style
anchor. Markdown is renderable content: route markdown document paths to
PreviewAttachment (source='tool-result'), which opens them in the right-rail
preview pane — where .md already renders with a rendered/source toggle and,
since #89381, full KaTeX math, tables, images, and links.
Resolves#84951 (the MEDIA delivery half; the rail-side rendering half landed
in #89381).
DOM-level render test mounting the exact file-preview pipeline
(normalizeFilePreviewMath -> Streamdown + memoized math plugin) and asserting
`.katex` output for inline $.x.$, display $$..$$, and \(..\) delimiter math,
plus that a code-fence $.HOME.) stays code.
The right-rail file preview rendered markdown through Streamdown with no
plugins and no math preprocessing, so $...$ and \(...\) stayed as raw
source text. Wire the memoized KaTeX plugin (same one the chat transcript
uses) into the preview and preprocess prose with a math-only normalizer that
skips chat-only transforms (reasoning-block stripping, session-ref linking,
preview-target stripping, URL autolinking, citation stripping) so a file's
prose, code fences, and inline code spans are never mangled.
- preview-file.tsx: import + module-scope createMemoizedMathPlugin, pass
plugins={{ math }} to Streamdown, preprocess text with
normalizeFilePreviewMath before render
- markdown-preprocess.ts: add exported normalizeFilePreviewMath
- markdown-preprocess.file-preview.test.ts: 8 tests (currency escaping,
delimiter normalization, fence/inline-code preservation, verbatim
citations/URLs/reasoning blocks)
Both entry points into the browser pane now ask for a reachable URL
first, so the dev server an agent names over a remote gateway actually
loads, and typing that address by hand behaves the same.
Every fallback keeps the original URL, which leaves the pane free to
explain an address it still cannot reach.
The Browser tab could only be summoned by asking the agent or clicking a
link. Adds Cmd+Shift+L and a command-palette row.
L is the location-bar chord every browser shares; plain Cmd+L is
already the terminal's selection shortcut, hence the shift. Pressing it
re-fronts whatever page is loaded rather than resetting it, so it reads
as 'show me the browser' and not 'start over'.
Clicking a link in the transcript, a url chip, or the terminal left
Hermes entirely. Now a web page opens in the browser pane — no context
switch to read a doc, and it's the surface the agent can see — while
Cmd/Ctrl-click and middle-click still escape to the real browser.
Routing lives in one helper so every link surface agrees. Anything that
isn't a web page (mailto:, file:, custom schemes) always hands off to
the OS, as do billing, OAuth, and local media, which need a real
logged-in browser.
The terminal keeps its own chord: it already spends Cmd/Ctrl on
activating the link at all, so Shift is what escapes there.
Three small dedupes in the surfaces this feature touches:
- GLASS_SUPPORTED was a fourth inline copy of "am I on a Mac" in the
renderer. src/lib/platform.ts owns it now and the terminal's
isMacPlatform re-exports it, so the two call sites can't drift.
- The store held intensity and mode as two atoms behind two localStorage
keys with two subscriptions calling one sync. They are one setting: one
atom, one key, one subscription. A pre-mode value under that key is a bare
intensity, which has only ever meant clear -- read() keeps it there.
- global.d.ts re-declared the IPC payload as an inline union. It takes
TranslucencyState, so widening the state can't leave the bridge behind.
isChatWindow is exported and takes its search string as a parameter, because
"which windows may thin their surfaces" is the contract worth pinning.
Some providers re-send the previous assistant text verbatim when a turn
continues past a tool call (a tool_calls row, then a stop row with identical
prose — both persisted). The turn merge folds both rows into one bubble, so
every paragraph in the reply rendered twice; inline ::preview frames made it
obvious. Repeated text parts now dedupe in the same pass as generated-image
echoes — the last occurrence wins.
The transcript becomes a contribution area (transcript.directives). A plugin
registers a named directive and the model addresses it by emitting
::name{key="value"} as its own paragraph; that leaf renders as the plugin's
component, wrapped in the contribution error boundary. Unclaimed or malformed
directives stay plain prose, so nothing changes for text that merely looks
like a directive (std::vector) or for users with the plugin disabled.
Core ships ::preview{file="..."} as the reference consumer (the existing
preview-attachment card), the desktop platform hint teaches the model the
syntax, and the SDK exports the area + types so runtime plugin.js files get
the surface through the normal plugins API.
Desktop shipped the same bug class four times in one week: a decorative
animation loop that never sleeps (bots face clock #88543, pixel egg #88406,
diffusion placeholder #88564, plus the #77651 hidden-renderer wave). Each fix
hand-rolled the same four behaviors. This extracts them into one helper in
src/lib/budgeted-loop.ts:
- fps budget (default 15) on top of rAF
- observability pause via the existing createRendererLoopPauseController
- idle dormancy: idleWhen() true after a draw parks the loop with zero
pending work until wake() — the piece every hand-rolled loop forgot
- teardown: dispose() cancels the frame, disposes the controller, and makes
wake() a no-op
DiffusionCanvas migrates onto it as the first consumer (net -40 lines at the
call site); its existing scheduling/budget/instance-cap tests pass unchanged
against the migrated implementation. Helper suite covers budget, pause,
park/wake, dormancy-survives-focus-churn, and dispose idempotency; sabotage
run (budget+dormancy stripped) fails 4/5.
Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+B worktree flows on a remote gateway route through the
backend's /api/git mirror (hermes_cli/web_git.py), but that mirror had
drifted behind the Electron-local git ops the same UI drives locally, so
the flows broke exactly and only on remote connections:
- Convert-a-branch: the picker offers remote-tracking refs, and the
Electron op turns "origin/feature" into a local tracking branch. The
mirror ran `git worktree add <dir> origin/feature` verbatim, which
either fails or detaches HEAD. It now resolves the ref's remote via
git (never assuming "origin"), fetches best-effort, and creates the
worktree with `--track -b <short-name>`.
- branch_list omitted remote-tracking refs entirely and never set the
`isRemote` flag the renderer's HermesGitBranch contract requires —
the convert picker on a remote gateway couldn't reach a teammate's
branch and mislabeled every row's action.
- Branching off an `origin/…` base silently wired the new branch to the
remote upstream; the mirror now passes `--no-track` like the Electron
op does.
Renderer side, replace the silent degradation with a capability gate:
when a remote backend predates the /api/git worktree routes, worktree
creation failed with an opaque "Expected JSON … got HTML" toast. The
route-missing shapes now surface a clear "update the Hermes backend"
message (isGitEndpointMissingError, mirroring the sidebar batch-endpoint
detector); real git errors still pass through untouched.
Sibling audit (documented, no code change needed): repo status / review /
file-diff / git-root / default-cwd already route through desktopGit()'s
REST bridge or /api/fs on remote; repo scan is deliberately a no-op there.
Stale comments claiming "empty/false on a remote backend" in projects.ts
and coding-status.ts updated to describe the backend-routed reality.
Fixes#81724
The live suite previously called appendMidTurnUserMessage directly, leaving
redirectPrompt's appendAfterActiveReply guard — the production decision of
WHERE a correction lands — outside the harness. Both hooks now mount together
sharing one state map, exactly as the desktop wires them, so a regression in
the caller (not just the insert) goes red. Verified by mutation: disabling the
guard fails 2/4.
Also covers the rejected-redirect path: a not_running response discards the
optimistic bubble instead of stranding a correction the model never saw.
The hydration fixture now carries the durable row shape the client actually
receives (row_id, reasoning, provider call_id/response_item_id on tool_calls)
instead of a hand-simplified echo, so the 'mirrors real state.db rows' claim
is honest. The fake-timer steer id counter is gone with the local insert —
ids come from redirectPrompt itself.
A steered turn's contract — pre-steer output above the correction bubble,
post-steer output and the settled reply below it — was fixed across
several PRs (#73793/#83151 class, settle fixes) but only covered piecewise:
the mid-turn insert as a unit, the settle math as a unit. Nothing drove the
real stream reducer through a whole steered turn, and nothing asserted the
durable-row hydration renders the same order after reload.
Two suites close that:
- steer-arrival-order: full event sequences through useMessageStream's real
handler + the real optimistic insert — single steer with tool activity,
steer racing message.complete, double steer in one turn.
- steered-turn-hydration-order: toChatMessages over persisted row shapes
copied from a real state.db steered turn, including a tool result that
lands after the correction row.
Multiple Desktop windows share one renderer origin (one localStorage
area) while each window can be connected to a DIFFERENT gateway. The
sidebar pin set (hermes.desktop.pinnedSessions), the manual session
order, and the remembered last-session/route navigation keys were all
persisted under single global (or profile-only) keys, so two windows on
different gateways read and reconciled the same lists: pin-sync's
pullRemotePins() in one window adopted/dropped pins belonging to the
other window's backend, producing the overlapping mixed PINNED/SESSIONS
lists reported after the v0.19.1 update relaunch.
Introduce a connection-scope persistence layer (connectionScopedAtom in
src/lib/connection-scoped.ts): the local connection keeps the bare
legacy key (byte-identical for single-backend users, same contract as
backendScopeKey), while remote connections persist under
`<key>.remote.<encoded baseUrl>.<encoded profile>` — the shape
workspaceCwdKey already established. setConnection() rescopes every
scoped atom when the window's connection changes (null descriptors keep
the current scope, as with syncCronModelImpactConnection), and pin-sync
resets its mirrored/pending/unconfirmed bookkeeping on rescope so a
reconcile never PATCHes one gateway's pins to another.
Legacy globally-keyed values are deliberately not migrated into remote
scopes: ownership of rows accumulated by every window is unknowable
(the #67709 precedent), and backend-mirrored pins self-heal from the
gateway's own `pinned` rows.
Fixes#77318
Add a compact Import popover to the MCP Capabilities page that accepts
anything a user might copy from an MCP server README and infers the
server config:
- mcp.json snippets (mcpServers-wrapped, bare name->config maps, single
unnamed server objects, Cursor/Claude `type` normalized to `transport`)
- bare npx/bunx/uvx/node/docker command lines (name inferred from the
package basename, e.g. server-filesystem -> filesystem)
- `claude mcp add NAME [--transport http|sse] [-e K=V] [-H ...] [--] CMD
ARGS...` and `claude mcp add NAME URL`
- bare http(s) URLs (name inferred from the hostname)
- Cursor deeplinks (cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install with
a base64-encoded JSON config payload)
The parser is a pure module (src/lib/mcp-import.ts) with unit tests for
every format plus garbage input. The popover previews the inferred
name + config and, on confirm, merges the entries into the editor draft
exactly like addServer's starter entry: unique keys, dirty (unsaved)
draft, first new block focused. Placeholder env values (YOUR_KEY,
TOKEN_HERE, ...) are kept verbatim for the user to edit in the editor
before saving.
i18n keys added under settings.mcp for en, zh, zh-hant, ja (ar falls
back through defineLocale).
MCP server problems (expired OAuth tokens especially) were only
discovered when the user visited the MCP page and a probe ran. Now a
renderer-side background checker (store/mcp-health.ts) sweeps the
active profile's enabled HTTP/SSE MCP servers on gateway connect and
every 30 minutes, and fires an in-app notification with a "Sign in"
action ("<name> MCP needs re-authentication") that navigates to the
MCP page with ?server=<name> so useDeepLinkHighlight focuses the
server and its Authenticate button. Navigation only — OAuth flows are
never auto-launched.
stdio servers are deliberately excluded: probing a stdio server SPAWNS
a local process, so a background timer must never touch them. Only
url-shaped servers (where OAuth expiry lives) are swept, sequentially.
The tab's probeCache/serverFingerprint/probeKey/NEEDS_AUTH_RE moved to
a shared lib/mcp-probe-cache.ts (behavior identical) so the page and
the checker share one probe cache and its 5-minute TTL — neither
surface re-probes what the other just learned.
Notifications fire only on a TRANSITION into needs-auth/error (pure
state machine, unit-tested), hard-capped at one per server per app
session, keyed per profile. Profile switches drop pending timers and
re-arm for the new profile; sweeps never run while the gateway is
disconnected. No new config knobs. i18n keys added across
en/zh/zh-hant/ja/ar + types.
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.

Each configured server row on the MCP Capabilities page now shows what it
costs and whether it earns its keep:
- ~per-call token estimate of the server's tool schemas, summed over ENABLED
tools only (ceil(schema_chars/4) via the existing include/exclude filter)
- 30-day usage count from getUsageAnalytics(30), cached per scope profile
like the Toolsets tab's toolCallsCache, mapped to servers via the
mcp__<server>__<tool> registry-name convention (tools/mcp_tool.py)
- a subtle muted "unused" pill on enabled, probed-ok servers with nonzero
schema cost and zero 30-day uses — never a dialog
Backend: the /api/mcp/servers/{name}/test probe now fills an additive
per-tool `schema_chars` (length of the SAME converted registry schema the
agent registers). Older backends omit it → renderer shows counts only;
older renderers ignore the extra key. Display-only: nothing changes what
schemas are sent to models, no config knobs.
i18n keys (costTokens/usage30d/unusedPill) added to types/en/zh/zh-hant/ja
