Post-merge fixes for the email gateway (PR #797):
1. Add Platform.EMAIL to all 4 platform-to-toolset/config mapping
dicts in gateway/run.py. Without this, email sessions silently
fell back to the Telegram toolset because these dicts were added
after the PR branched off main.
2. Add email (and signal) to hermes_cli/tools_config.py and
hermes_cli/skills_config.py PLATFORMS dicts so they appear in
'hermes tools' and 'hermes skills' CLI commands.
3. Add full email setup documentation:
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/email.md — setup guide with
Gmail/Outlook instructions, configuration, troubleshooting,
security advice, and env var reference
- Update messaging/index.md — add email to architecture diagram,
platform toolset table, security examples, and next steps
The #1 support issue with Slack is 'bot works in DMs but not channels'.
This is almost always caused by missing event subscriptions (message.channels,
message.groups) or missing OAuth scopes (channels:history, groups:history).
Changes:
- slack.md: Move channels:history and groups:history from optional to required
scopes. Move message.channels and message.groups to required events. Add new
'How the Bot Responds' section explaining DM vs channel behavior. Add Step 8
for inviting bot to channels. Expand troubleshooting table with specific
'works in DMs not channels' entry. Add quick checklist for channel debugging.
- setup.py: Expand Slack setup wizard with all required scopes, event
subscriptions, and a warning that without message.channels/message.groups
the bot only works in DMs. Add link to full docs. Improve Member ID
discovery instructions.
- config.py: Update SLACK_BOT_TOKEN and SLACK_APP_TOKEN descriptions to list
required scopes and event subscriptions inline.
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/signal.md: Full setup guide with
prerequisites, step-by-step instructions, access policies, features,
troubleshooting, security notes, and env var reference
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/index.md: Added Signal to architecture
diagram, platform toolset table, security examples, and Next Steps links
- website/docs/reference/environment-variables.md: All 7 SIGNAL_* env vars
- README.md: Signal in feature table and documentation table
- AGENTS.md: Signal in gateway description and env var config section
User messaging improvements:
- Rejection: '(>_<) Error: not a valid model' instead of '(^_^) Warning: Error:'
- Rejection: shows 'Model unchanged' + tip about /model and /provider
- Session-only: explains 'this session only' with reason and 'will revert on restart'
- Saved: clear '(saved to config)' confirmation
Docs updated:
- cli-commands.md, cli.md, messaging/index.md: /model now shows
provider:model syntax, /provider command added to tables
Test fixes: deduplicated test names, assertions match new messages.
- website/docs/reference/cli-commands.md: Added 'hermes insights' terminal
command section with --days and --source flags, plus /insights slash command
in the Conversation section
- website/docs/user-guide/cli.md: Added /insights to slash commands table
- website/docs/user-guide/messaging/index.md: Added /insights to gateway
chat commands table
- website/docs/user-guide/sessions.md: Added cross-reference to hermes
insights from the sessions stats section
- 25 documentation pages covering Getting Started, User Guide, Developer Guide, and Reference
- Docusaurus with custom amber/gold theme matching the landing page branding
- GitHub Actions workflow to deploy landing page + docs to GitHub Pages
- Landing page at root, docs at /docs/ on hermes-agent.nousresearch.com
- Content extracted and restructured from existing repo docs (README, AGENTS.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, docs/)
- Auto-deploy on push to main when website/ or landingpage/ changes
