# SOL TOOL GATEWAY TRIAGE REPORT
operator: Alexander | agent: sol (Hermes) | date: 2026-11-02
measured_total_sources: 5
evidence: web_search("Hermes Agent tool gateway four tools how it works") returned 5 live sources (verified in tool result above).
## Verdict
- HOT (2 sources): direct copy-paste operator steps from official docs.
- FOUNDATIONAL (3 sources): enabling context + one hard caveat (the gateway is PAID).
- NOISE (1 source): internal architecture, actionable only for contributors.
## HOT (copy-paste steps)
1. Run a fresh install with one command: `hermes setup --portal` — logs in via OAuth, sets Nous as provider, and turns on the Tool Gateway (web search, image generation, TTS, cloud browser) in one go.

2. Configure tools à la carte WITHOUT logging in first: `hermes tools` lists the Nous-managed backends; pick "Nous Subscription" per tool; verify wiring with `hermes portal info`.

## FOUNDATIONAL (context + caveat)
1. HARD CAVEAT: the Tool Gateway is included with every PAID Nous Portal subscription — billed pay-as-you-use against the subscription. Do NOT claim it is free.

2. `execute_code` lets the agent write Python scripts that call Hermes tools programmatically, collapsing multi-step workflows into a single inference turn via sandboxed RPC.

3. Full web control (search, extract, browse, vision, image generation, TTS) is bundled under one subscription — no extra accounts for search/image/TTS/browser.

## NOISE
1. The Architecture page describes internal message flow (GatewayRunner, adapters, session keys). Useful for contributors, not a copy-paste step for an operator.
