Plugin context from pre_llm_call hooks was injected into the system prompt, breaking the prompt cache prefix every turn when content changed (typical for memory plugins). Now all plugin context goes into the current turn's user message — the system prompt stays identical across turns, preserving cached tokens. The system prompt is reserved for Hermes internals. Plugins contribute context alongside the user's input. Also adds comprehensive documentation for all 6 plugin hooks: pre_tool_call, post_tool_call, pre_llm_call, post_llm_call, on_session_start, on_session_end — each with full callback signatures, parameter tables, firing conditions, and examples. Supersedes #5138 which identified the same cache-busting bug and proposed an uncached system suffix approach. This fix goes further by removing system prompt injection entirely. Co-identified-by: OutThisLife (PR #5138)

Hermes Plugin System
|
||
====================
|
||
|
||
Discovers, loads, and manages plugins from three sources:
|
||
|
||
1. **User plugins** – ``~/.hermes/plugins/<name>/``
|
||
2. **Project plugins** – ``./.hermes/plugins/<name>/`` (opt-in via
|
||
``HERMES_ENABLE_PROJECT_PLUGINS``)
|
||
3. **Pip plugins** – packages that expose the ``hermes_agent.plugins``
|
||
entry-point group.
|
||
|
||
Each directory plugin must contain a ``plugin.yaml`` manifest **and** an
|
||
``__init__.py`` with a ``register(ctx)`` function.
|
||
|
||
Lifecycle hooks
|
||
---------------
|
||
Plugins may register callbacks for any of the hooks in ``VALID_HOOKS``.
|
||
The agent core calls ``invoke_hook(name, **kwargs)`` at the appropriate
|
||
points.
|
||
|
||
Tool registration
|
||
-----------------
|
||
``PluginContext.register_tool()`` delegates to ``tools.registry.register()``
|
||
so plugin-defined tools appear alongside the built-in tools.
