Adds 'hermes webhook' CLI subcommand and a skill — zero new model tools.
CLI commands (require webhook platform to be enabled):
hermes webhook subscribe <name> [--events, --prompt, --deliver, ...]
hermes webhook list
hermes webhook remove <name>
hermes webhook test <name>
All commands gate on webhook platform being enabled in config. If not
configured, prints setup instructions (gateway setup wizard, manual
config.yaml, or env vars).
The agent uses these via terminal tool, guided by the webhook-subscriptions
skill which documents setup, common patterns (GitHub, Stripe, CI/CD,
monitoring), prompt template syntax, security, and troubleshooting.
Adapter enhancement: webhook.py hot-reloads dynamic subscriptions from
~/.hermes/webhook_subscriptions.json on each incoming request (mtime-gated).
Static config.yaml routes always take precedence.
Docs: updated webhooks.md with Dynamic Subscriptions section, added
hermes webhook to cli-commands.md reference.
No new model tools. No toolset changes.
24 new tests for CLI CRUD, persistence, enabled-gate, and adapter
dynamic route loading.
Python's asyncio event loop holds only weak references to tasks.
Without a strong reference, the garbage collector can destroy a task
while it's awaiting I/O — silently dropping messages. Python 3.12+
made this more aggressive.
Audit of all gateway platform adapters found 6 untracked create_task
calls across 6 files:
Per-message tasks (tracked via _background_tasks set from base class):
- gateway/platforms/webhook.py: handle_message task
- gateway/platforms/sms.py: handle_message task
- gateway/platforms/signal.py: SSE response aclose task
Long-running infrastructure tasks (stored in named instance vars):
- gateway/platforms/slack.py: Socket Mode handler (_socket_mode_task)
- gateway/platforms/discord.py: bot client (_bot_task)
- gateway/platforms/whatsapp.py: message poll loop (_poll_task, 2 sites)
All other adapters (telegram, mattermost, matrix, email, homeassistant,
dingtalk) already tracked their tasks correctly.
