The gateway now ships with a built-in boot-md hook that checks for ~/.hermes/BOOT.md on every startup. If the file exists, the agent executes its instructions in a background thread. No installation or configuration needed — just create the file. No BOOT.md = zero overhead (the hook silently returns). Implementation: - gateway/builtin_hooks/boot_md.py: handler with boot prompt, background thread, [SILENT] suppression, error handling - gateway/hooks.py: _register_builtin_hooks() called at the start of discover_and_load() to wire in built-in hooks - Docs updated: hooks page documents BOOT.md as a built-in feature

"""Built-in boot-md hook — run ~/.hermes/BOOT.md on gateway startup.
|
|
|
|
This hook is always registered. It silently skips if no BOOT.md exists.
|
|
To activate, create ``~/.hermes/BOOT.md`` with instructions for the
|
|
agent to execute on every gateway restart.
|
|
|
|
Example BOOT.md::
|
|
|
|
# Startup Checklist
|
|
|
|
1. Check if any cron jobs failed overnight
|
|
2. Send a status update to Discord #general
|
|
3. If there are errors in /opt/app/deploy.log, summarize them
|
|
|
|
The agent runs in a background thread so it doesn't block gateway
|
|
startup. If nothing needs attention, it replies with [SILENT] to
|
|
suppress delivery.
