- Enhanced tool registration process by implementing a self-registering mechanism in each tool file via `tools/registry.py`.
- Updated `model_tools.py` to serve as a thin orchestration layer, simplifying tool discovery and registration.
- Revised documentation to clarify the steps for adding new tools, emphasizing the importance of schema, handler, and registration consistency.
- Improved dependency resolution in environments by ensuring toolsets are queried from `tools/registry.py`.
- Introduced the `delegate_task` tool, allowing the main agent to spawn child AIAgent instances with isolated context for complex tasks.
- Supported both single-task and batch processing (up to 3 concurrent tasks) to enhance task management capabilities.
- Updated configuration options for delegation, including maximum iterations and default toolsets for subagents.
- Enhanced documentation to provide clear guidance on using the delegation feature and its configuration.
- Added comprehensive tests to ensure the functionality and reliability of the delegation logic.
- Added a new `skill_manager_tool` to enable agents to create, update, and delete their own skills, enhancing procedural memory capabilities.
- Updated the skills directory structure to support user-created skills in `~/.hermes/skills/`, allowing for better organization and management.
- Enhanced the CLI and documentation to reflect the new skill management functionalities, including detailed instructions on creating and modifying skills.
- Implemented a manifest-based syncing mechanism for bundled skills to ensure user modifications are preserved during updates.
Two-part implementation:
Part A - Curated Bounded Memory:
- New memory tool (tools/memory_tool.py) with MEMORY.md + USER.md stores
- Character-limited (2200/1375 chars), § delimited entries
- Frozen snapshot injected into system prompt at session start
- Model manages pruning via replace/remove with substring matching
- Usage indicator shown in system prompt header
Part B - SQLite Session Store:
- New hermes_state.py with SessionDB class, FTS5 full-text search
- Gateway session.py rewritten to dual-write SQLite + legacy JSONL
- Compression-triggered session splitting with parent_session_id chains
- New session_search tool with Gemini Flash summarization of matched sessions
- CLI session lifecycle (create on launch, close on exit)
Also:
- System prompt now cached per session, only rebuilt on compression
(fixes prefix cache invalidation from date/time changes every turn)
- Config version bumped to 3, hermes doctor checks for new artifacts
- Disabled in batch_runner and RL environments
- Introduced a new `todo_tool.py` for planning and tracking multi-step tasks, enhancing the agent's capabilities.
- Updated CLI to include a floating autocomplete dropdown for commands and improved user instructions for better navigation.
- Revised toolsets to incorporate the new `todo` tool and updated documentation to reflect changes in available tools and commands.
- Enhanced user experience with new keybindings and clearer command descriptions in the CLI.
- Updated `pyproject.toml` to include Edge TTS and ElevenLabs as dependencies.
- Enhanced documentation to detail voice message capabilities across platforms and TTS provider options.
- Modified the GatewayRunner to handle MEDIA tags from TTS tool responses, ensuring proper delivery of audio messages.
- Updated `.cursorrules` to provide a comprehensive overview of the interactive CLI, including its architecture, key components, and command handling.
- Expanded `README.md` to introduce the CLI features, quick start instructions, and detailed command descriptions for user guidance.
- Added `docs/cli.md` to document CLI usage, configuration, and animated feedback, ensuring clarity for users and developers.
- Revised `docs/tools.md` to include support for SSH backend in terminal tools, enhancing the documentation for terminal execution options.
