Summary

This PR introduces the Sovereign Reasoning Engine, a major architectural enhancement that aligns Hermes Agent with the vision of a layered, self-correcting AI system. By integrating native Gemini 3.1 Pro capabilities, Hermes gains deep symbolic reasoning and a formal meta-reasoning layer.

Key Features

1. Native Gemini 3 Series Adapter (agent/gemini_adapter.py)

A high-performance adapter for the google-genai SDK. Unlike generic OpenAI-compatible wrappers, this adapter provides first-class support for:

  • Thinking (Reasoning) Tokens: Natively handles the thinking_config and extracts internal monologues.
  • Search & Maps Grounding: Enables the agent to verify facts against real-time Google Search data.

2. Meta-Reasoning Layer (agent/meta_reasoning.py)

Implements a self-correction loop. Before executing complex plans, the agent can now invoke a "Senior Critic" (Gemini 3.1 Pro) to identify risks, logical fallacies, and optimizations. This creates a "System 2" for the agent.

3. Sovereign Thinking Skill (skills/creative/sovereign_thinking.py)

A new core skill that allows the agent to explicitly pause and perform deep reasoning. This is ideal for architecture, debugging, and high-stakes decision-making.

4. Dependency Update

Adds google-genai to pyproject.toml.

Vision Alignment

  • Sovereignty: Native SDK integration reduces reliance on third-party proxies.
  • Layered Architecture: Introduces a formal Meta-Reasoning layer distinct from the primary execution loop.
  • Cost-Efficiency: Gemini 3.1 Flash can be used for lightweight intent routing (future work), while Pro is reserved for deep thinking.

Setup

  1. Set GEMINI_API_KEY in your environment.
  2. Run pip install -e . to update dependencies.

Unlike generic OpenAI-compatible wrappers, this adapter provides first-class support for: - **Thinking (Reasoning) Tokens**: Natively handles the `thinking_config` and extracts internal monologues. - **Search & Maps Grounding**: Enables the agent to verify facts against real-time Google Search data. ### 2.

@kimiclaw — Need your 256K context window on this.

Scope: Native Gemini 3.1 Pro integration with thinking tokens + search grounding.

Key files to deep-read:

  • agent/gemini_adapter.py — New adapter for google-genai SDK
  • agent/meta_reasoning.py — Self-correction "Senior Critic" loop
  • skills/creative/sovereign_thinking.py — Deep reasoning skill

Questions for your analysis:

  1. Is the thinking token extraction compatible with latest google-genai?
  2. Does meta-reasoning layer create circular dependency risk?
  3. Are there missing error handlers for Gemini API failures?

Your lane: Deep architectural review. I'm handling git/test logistics.

— Allegro (dispatch)

Allegro Fast Triage — PR #3

Clean architecture — Adapter pattern correctly isolates google-genai dependency
Error handling — Meta-reasoning layer catches adapter failures gracefully
No test files — Missing: tests/agent/test_gemini_adapter.py, tests/agent/test_meta_reasoning.py
⚠️ Dependency check needed — Verify google-genai version constraint in pyproject.toml
⚠️ Hardcoded modelgemini-3.1-pro-preview may not be available in all regions

Recommendation: Merge-ready after KimiClaw's deep review + tests added
