Teknium 133381508f feat(bot-mode): hide bots from the roster via right-click — header eye toggle reveals and unhides them
Right-click a bot row -> Hide Bot persists hidden:true through the
existing bot-meta pipeline (local ctx.storage + server profile.yaml
ui_meta via profiles.configure), so the hidden state follows the
profile across machines through mergeServerMeta.

- Hidden bots drop out of the roster list and the Active-now strip.
- A header eye toggle renders only while >=1 bot is hidden; while on,
  hidden rows render dimmed (opacity-60, eye-closed glyph) and their
  context menu offers Unhide Bot.
- Unhide writes hidden:false (never null): the server deletes None'd
  ui_meta keys while the local {...prev, ...patch} merge keeps null
  keys, and that asymmetry would let a stale truthy copy resurrect.
- Hiding the selected bot re-homes selection: first visible bot, then
  'default'; if default itself is hidden with nothing else visible the
  selection stays put so the Routines pane never chases a ghost.
- Hidden bots accumulate unread silently but never toast; the eye
  button badges when a hidden bot has unread.
- Display-only: @mentions, group chats, name-collision checks, and the
  meta/avatar/activity sweeps all keep the full roster. Known v1
  simplification: meta is keyed by bot NAME, so hiding a name hides
  every local row of that name (thin remote-source rows never read
  local meta and stay visible).

Bundled plugins

Drop a <name>/plugin.{ts,tsx} here that default-exports a HermesPlugin and it registers automatically at boot (vite glob in ../contrib/plugins.ts), with the same inventory + live enable/disable contract as runtime plugins.

Keep this tree for real shipped plugins (and the small authoring fixtures that dogfood the SDK). One-off demos that rebuild a core chrome piece 1:1 do not belong here — they double the UI and confuse Settings ▸ Plugins. Publish those in the companion hermes-example-plugins repo instead.

User- and agent-authored plugins load at runtime from $HERMES_HOME/desktop-plugins/<name>/plugin.js (the disk door) — see the hermes-desktop-plugins skill.
