## ✨ Highlights
- **Google AI Studio (Gemini) Native Provider** — Direct access to Gemini models through Google's AI Studio API. Includes automatic models.dev registry integration for real-time context length detection across any provider. ([#5577](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5577))
- **Background Process Auto-Notifications (`notify_on_complete`)** — Background tasks can now automatically notify the agent when they finish. Start a long-running process (AI model training, test suites, deployments, builds) and the agent gets notified on completion — no polling needed. The agent can keep working on other things and pick up results when they land. ([#5779](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5779))
- **Free Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro on Nous Portal** — Nous Portal now supports the free-tier Xiaomi MiMo v2 Pro model for auxiliary tasks (compression, vision, summarization), with free-tier model gating and pricing display in model selection. ([#6018](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6018), [#5880](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5880))
- **Live Model Switching (`/model` Command)** — Switch models and providers mid-session from CLI, Telegram, Discord, Slack, or any gateway platform. Aggregator-aware resolution keeps you on OpenRouter/Nous when possible, with automatic cross-provider fallback when needed. Interactive model pickers on Telegram and Discord with inline buttons. ([#5181](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5181), [#5742](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5742))
- **Self-Optimized GPT/Codex Tool-Use Guidance** — The agent diagnosed and patched 5 failure modes in GPT and Codex tool calling through automated behavioral benchmarking, dramatically improving reliability on OpenAI models. Includes execution discipline guidance and thinking-only prefill continuation for structured reasoning. ([#6120](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/6120), [#5414](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5414), [#5931](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5931))
- **Google AI Studio (Gemini) Native Provider** — Direct access to Gemini models through Google's AI Studio API. Includes automatic models.dev registry integration for real-time context length detection across any provider. ([#5577](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5577))
- **Inactivity-Based Agent Timeouts** — Gateway and cron timeouts now track actual tool activity instead of wall-clock time. Long-running tasks that are actively working will never be killed — only truly idle agents time out. ([#5389](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5389), [#5440](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5440))
- **Approval Buttons on Slack & Telegram** — Dangerous command approval via native platform buttons instead of typing `/approve`. Slack gets thread context preservation; Telegram gets emoji reactions for approval status. ([#5890](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5890), [#5975](https://github.com/NousResearch/hermes-agent/pull/5975))
